Mapisarema 31

1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Ndinovanda mamuri, imi Jehovha; itai kuti ndisatombonyadziswa; ndirwirei mukururama kwenyu.

TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. In You, O YHWH, I have trusted, Do not let me be ashamed for all time, In Your righteousness deliver me.

2 Rerekerai nzeve yenyu kwandiri, kurumidzai kundinunura; ivai dombo rangu rokuvanda, nhare yakasimba inondiponesa.

Incline Your ear to me quickly, deliver me, Be to me for a strong rock, For a house of bulwarks to save me.

3 Sezvo murimi dombo rangu nenhare yangu, nditungamirirei uye mundisesedze nokuda kwezita renyu.

For You [are] my rock and my bulwark, For Your Name’s sake lead me and tend me.

4 Ndisunungurei pamusungo wandakadzikirwa, nokuti imi muri utiziro hwangu.

Bring me out from the net that they hid for me, For You [are] my strength.

5 Ndinoisa mweya wangu mumaoko enyu; ndidzikinurei, imi Jehovha, Mwari wechokwadi.

Into Your hand I commit my spirit, You have redeemed me, YHWH God of truth.

6 Ndinovenga vanonamatira kuzvifananidzo zvisina maturo; ndinovimba naJehovha.

I have hated the observers of lying vanities, And I have been confident toward YHWH.

7 Ndichafara nokufarisisa murudo rwenyu, nokuti makaona kutambudzika kwangu mukaziva kurwadziwa kwomwoyo wangu.

I rejoice, and am glad in Your kindness, In that You have seen my affliction, You have known my soul in adversities.

8 Hamuna kundiisa kumuvengi, asi makamisa tsoka dzangu panzvimbo yakafarikana.

And You have not shut me up, Into the hand of an enemy, You have caused my feet to stand in a broad place.

9 Haiwa Jehovha, ndinzwirei ngoni nokuti ndine nhamo; meso angu aneta nokuchema, mwoyo wangu nomuviri wangu zvarwadziwa.

Favor me, O YHWH, for distress [is] to me, My eye, my soul, and my body Have become old by provocation.

10 Upenyu hwangu hwopera nokurwadziwa, uye namakore angu nokugomera; simba rangu rapera nokuda kwokutambudzika kwangu, uye mapfupa angu arukutika.

For my life has been consumed in sorrow And my years in sighing. My strength has been feeble because of my iniquity, And my bones have become old.

11 Nokuda kwavavengi vangu, ndava chinhu chinovengwa navavakidzani vangu; ndava chinhu chinotyisa kushamwari dzangu; vanondiona munzira dzomumisha vanonditiza.

I have been a reproach among all my adversaries, And to my neighbors exceedingly, And a fear to my acquaintances, Those seeing me without—fled from me.

12 Ndakanganwikwa navo sendakafa; ndafanana nehari yakaputsika,

I have been forgotten as dead, out of mind, I have been as a perishing vessel.

13 nokuti ndinonzwa guhwa ravazhinji; kumativi ose kune zvinotyisa; vanorangana pamusoro pangu uye vanoronga kundiuraya.

For I have heard an evil account of many, Fear [is] all around. In their being united against me, They have devised to take my life,

14 Asi ndinovimba nemi, imi Jehovha; ndinoti, “Ndimi Mwari wangu.”

And I have trusted on You, O YHWH, I have said, “You [are] my God.”

15 Nguva dzangu dziri mumaoko enyu; ndirwirei kuvavengi vangu nokuna avo vanonditeverera.

In Your hand [are] my times, Deliver me from the hand of my enemies, And from my pursuers.

16 Chiso chenyu ngachipenye pamusoro pomuranda wenyu; ndiponesei norudo rwenyu rusingaperi.

Cause Your face to shine on Your servant, Save me in Your kindness.

17 Haiwa Jehovha, itai kuti ndisanyadziswa, nokuti ndakadana kwamuri; asi vakaipa ngavanyadziswe uye vavate vakati mwiro muguva. (Sheol h7585)

O YHWH, do not let me be ashamed, For I have called You, let the wicked be ashamed, Let them become silent to Sheol. (Sheol h7585)

18 Miromo yavo inoreva nhema ngainyaradzwe, nokuti vanotaura namanyawi nokuzvikudza pamusoro pavakarurama.

Let lips of falsehood become mute, That are speaking against the righteous, Ancient sayings, in pride and contempt.

19 Haiwa, kunaka kwenyu kukuru sei, kwamakachengetera vaya vanokutyai, kwamunoisa pamberi pavanhu, pamusoro paivo vanovanda mamuri.

How abundant is Your goodness, That You have laid up for those fearing You, You have worked for those trusting in You, Before sons of men.

20 Mukudzivirira kwokuvapo kwenyu munovavanza kubva parangano dzavanhu; munovachengeta zvakanaka pamunogara kubva pandimi dzinopomera.

You hide them in the secret place of Your presence, From schemes of man, You conceal them in a dwelling place, From the strife of tongues.

21 Jehovha ngaarumbidzwe, nokuti akaratidza rudo rwake runoshamisa kwandiri pandakanga ndiri muguta rakakombwa.

Blessed [is] YHWH, For He has made His kindness marvelous To me in a city of bulwarks.

22 Mukuvhunduka kwangu, ndakati, “Ndabviswa pamberi penyu!” Asi makanzwa kuchemera nyasha kwangu pandakadanidzira kwamuri ndichida rubatsiro.

And I have said in my haste, “I have been cut off from before Your eyes,” But You have heard the voice of my supplications, In my crying to You.

23 Idai Jehovha, imi vatsvene mose! Jehovha anochengetedza vakatendeka, asi anotsiva zvizere vanozvikudza.

Love YHWH, all you His saints, YHWH is keeping the faithful, And repaying a proud doer abundantly.

24 Simbai uye mutsunge mwoyo, imi mose munorindira Jehovha.

Be strong, and He strengthens your heart, All you who are waiting for YHWH!
