Mapisarema 36
1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba. Pisarema raDhavhidhi muranda waJehovha. Shoko riri mumwoyo mangu pamusoro pokutadza kweakaipa rinoti: Hakuna kutya Mwari pamberi pake.
To the chief music-maker. Of the servant of the Lord. Of David. The sin of the evil-doer says in his heart, There is no fear of the Lord before his eyes.
2 Pamaonero ake anozvirumbidza, nokuti anozvibata kumeso kwazvo pakuona kwake, zvokuti anotadza kuona kana kuvenga chivi chake.
For he takes comfort in the thought that his sin will not be uncovered and hated.
3 Mashoko omuromo wake akaipa uye anonyengera; haachisiri munhu akachenjera kana anoita zvakanaka.
In the words of his mouth are evil and deceit; he has given up being wise and doing good.
4 Kunyange panhoo yake anofunga zvakaipa; anozvifambisa panzira yezvakaipa uye haarambi chakaipa.
He gives thought to evil on his bed; he takes a way which is not good; he is not a hater of evil.
5 Rudo rwenyu, imi Jehovha, runosvika kudenga denga, kutendeka kwenyu kunosvika kumakore.
Your mercy, O Lord, is in the heavens, and your strong purpose is as high as the clouds.
6 Kururama kwenyu kwakaita segomo guru guru, kururamisira kwenyu sepakadzika dzika. Haiwa Jehovha, imi munochengetedza zvose munhu nemhuka.
Your righteousness is like the mountains of God; your judging is like the great deep; O Lord, you give life to man and beast.
7 Haiwa rudo rwenyu rusingatongoperi runokosha sei! Vose vakuru navaduku pakati pavanhu vanovanda mumumvuri wamapapiro enyu.
How good is your loving mercy, O God! the children of men take cover under the shade of your wings.
8 Vanogutswa nezvakawanda zvomumba menyu; munovanwisa kubva parwizi rwenyu runofadza.
The delights of your house will be showered on them; you will give them drink from the river of your pleasures.
9 Nokuti kwamuri ndiko kune chitubu choupenyu; muchiedza chenyu tinoona chiedza.
For with you is the fountain of life: in your light we will see light.
10 Rambai muchiitira rudo kuna avo vanokuzivai, uye kururama kwenyu kuna vane mwoyo yakarurama.
O let there be no end to your loving mercy to those who have knowledge of you, or of your righteousness to the upright in heart.
11 Rutsoka rwounozvikudza ngarurege kusvika kwandiri, kunyange ruoko rweakaipa ngarurege kundidzingira kure.
Let not the foot of pride come against me, or the hand of the evil-doers put me out of my place.
12 Tarirai vaiti vezvakaipa kuti vawa sei, vakandwa pasi, havagoni kumuka.
There the workers of evil have come down: they have been made low, and will not be lifted up.
