Mapisarema 35
1 Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Haiwa Jehovha, kakavadzanai navanokakavadzana neni; rwisai avo vanondirwisa.
A Psalme of Dauid. Pleade thou my cause, O Lord, with them that striue with me: fight thou against them, that fight against me.
2 Torai nhoo huru neduku; simukai, uye uyai mundibatsire.
Lay hand vpon the shielde and buckler, and stand vp for mine helpe.
3 Vheyesai pfumo guru nepfumo diki murwise avo vanonditevera. Muti kumweya wangu, “Ndini ruponeso rwako.”
Bring out also the speare and stop the way against them, that persecute me: say vnto my soule, I am thy saluation.
4 Vanotsvaka kundiuraya ngavazvidzwe uye vanyadziswe; vanorangana kuparadzwa kwangu ngavadzoserwe shure vachitya.
Let them be confounded and put to shame, that seeke after my soule: let them be turned backe, and brought to confusion, that imagine mine hurt.
5 Ngavaite sehundi pamberi pemhepo, mutumwa waJehovha achivasundira kure;
Let them be as chaffe before the winde, and let the Angel of the Lord scatter them.
6 nzira yavo ngaisvibe uye itsvedze, mutumwa waJehovha achivateverera.
Let their way be darke and slipperie: and let the Angel of the Lord persecute them.
7 Sezvo vakandivanzira mimbure yavo ndisina mhosva, uye vakandicherera gomba ndisina mhosva,
For without cause they haue hid the pit and their net for me: without cause haue they digged a pit for my soule.
8 kuparadzwa ngakuvawire pakarepo, mumbure wavakavanza ngauvapinge ivo, ngavawire mugomba ravo vaparare.
Let destruction come vpon him at vnwares, and let his net, that he hath laid priuilie, take him: let him fall into the same destruction.
9 Ipapo mweya wangu uchafara muna Jehovha, uye uchafarira ruponeso rwake.
Then my soule shalbe ioyfull in the Lord: it shall reioyce in his saluation.
10 Zvandiri zvose zvichadanidzira zvichiti: “Ndianiko akaita semi, Jehovha? Munonunura varombo kubva kuna avo vane simba kupinda ravo.”
All my bones shall say, Lord, who is like vnto thee, which deliuerest the poore from him, that is too strong for him! yea, the poore and him that is in miserie, from him that spoyleth him!
11 Zvapupu zvino utsinye zvinouya mberi; zvinondibvunza pamusoro pezvinhu zvandisingazivi.
Cruell witnesses did rise vp: they asked of me things that I knewe not.
12 Vanotsiva zvakanaka zvangu nezvakaipa, uye vanosiya mweya wangu uchidzungaira.
They rewarded me euill for good, to haue spoyled my soule.
13 Asi pavairwara, ndakafuka nguo dzamasaga ndikazvininipisa nokutsanya. Munyengetero wangu pawakadzokera kwandiri usina mhinduro,
Yet I, when they were sicke, I was clothed with a sacke: I humbled my soule with fasting: and my praier was turned vpon my bosome.
14 ndakafamba-famba ndichichema kunge ndinochemera shamwari yangu kana hama yangu. Ndakakotamisa musoro wangu ndichichema, sokunge ndinochema mai vangu.
I behaued my selfe as to my friend, or as to my brother: I humbled my selfe, mourning as one that bewaileth his mother.
15 Asi pandakagumburwa, vakaungana vachifara; varwi vakaungana kuzondirwisa ndisingazivi. Vakandireva vasingaregi.
But in mine aduersitie they reioyced, and gathered them selues together: the abiects assembled themselues against me, and knewe not: they tare me and ceased not,
16 Savanhu vasina Mwari vakandiseka muruvengo rwavo; vakandirumanyira meno avo.
With the false skoffers at bankets, gnashing their teeth against me.
17 Haiwa Jehovha, muchasvika riniko makangotarira? Nunurai upenyu hwangu kubva pakuparadza kwavo, noupenyu hwangu hunokosha kubva pashumba idzi.
Lord, how long wilt thou beholde this? deliuer my soule from their tumult, euen my desolate soule from the lions.
18 Ndichakuvongai paungano huru; ndichakurumbidzai pakati pavanhu vazhinji.
So will I giue thee thankes in a great Congregation: I will praise thee among much people.
19 Ngavarege kufara pamusoro pangu avo vanondivenga ndisina mhosva; vanondivenga ndisina mhosva ngavarege kuchonyerana meso avo mukundivenga.
Let not them that are mine enemies, vniustly reioyce ouer mee, neyther let them winke with the eye, that hate mee without a cause.
20 Havatauri norugare, asi vanofunga kupomera mhosva pamusoro pavanogara norunyararo munyika.
For they speake not as friendes: but they imagine deceitfull woordes against the quiet of the lande.
21 Vanondishamira miromo yavo vachiti, “Hekani waro! Hekani waro! Tazviona nameso edu.”
And they gaped on mee with their mouthes, saying, Aha, aha, our eye hath seene.
22 Haiwa Jehovha, mazviona izvi; regai kunyarara. Regai kuva kure neni, imi Ishe.
Thou hast seene it, O Lord: keepe not silence: be not farre from me, O Lord.
23 Mukai uye simukai mundirwire! Ndirwirei, Mwari wangu naIshe wangu.
Arise and wake to my iudgement, euen to my cause, my God, and my Lord.
24 Ndiruramisirei mukururama kwenyu, imi Jehovha Mwari wangu; musarega vachifara pamusoro pangu.
Iudge me, O Lord my God, according to thy righteousnesse, and let them not reioyce ouer mee.
25 Musarega vachifunga mumwoyo mavo vachiti, “Hekani waro, ndizvo zvatanga tichida!” kana kuti vati, “Tamumedza chose.”
Let them not say in their hearts, O our soule reioyce: neither let them say, We haue deuoured him.
26 Vose vanofarira kutambudzika kwangu ngavanyadziswe uye vanyonganiswe; vose vanozvisimudzira pamusoro pangu ngavafukidzwe nenyadzi nokuzvidzwa.
Let them bee confounded, and put to shame together, that reioyce at mine hurt: let them bee clothed with confusion and shame, that lift vp themselues against me.
27 Vose vanofarira kururamisirwa kwangu ngavapembere nomufaro nokufarisisa; ngavarambe vachiti, “Jehovha ngaakudzwe, iye anofarira kugara zvakanaka kwavaranda vake.”
But let them be ioyful and glad, that loue my righteousnesse: yea, let them say alway, Let the Lord be magnified, which loueth the prosperitie of his seruant.
28 Rurimi rwangu ruchataura zvokururama kwenyu, uye nezvokurumbidzwa kwenyu zuva rose.
And my tongue shall vtter thy righteousnesse, and thy praise euery day.
