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 Musician, [A Psalm] of David the servant of the LORD. The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, [that there is] no fear of God before his eyes.

2 Pamaonero ake anozvirumbidza, nokuti anozvibata kumeso kwazvo pakuona kwake, zvokuti anotadza kuona kana kuvenga chivi chake.

For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity is found to be hateful.

3 Mashoko omuromo wake akaipa uye anonyengera; haachisiri munhu akachenjera kana anoita zvakanaka.

The words of his mouth [are] iniquity and deceit: he hath ceased to be wise, [and] to do good.

4 Kunyange panhoo yake anofunga zvakaipa; anozvifambisa panzira yezvakaipa uye haarambi chakaipa.

He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way [that is] not good; he abhorreth not evil.

5 Rudo rwenyu, imi Jehovha, runosvika kudenga denga, kutendeka kwenyu kunosvika kumakore.

Thy mercy, O LORD, [is] in the heavens; [and] thy faithfulness [reacheth] to the clouds.

6 Kururama kwenyu kwakaita segomo guru guru, kururamisira kwenyu sepakadzika dzika. Haiwa Jehovha, imi munochengetedza zvose munhu nemhuka.

Thy righteousness [is] like the great mountains; thy judgments [are] a great deep: O LORD, thou preservest man and beast.

7 Haiwa rudo rwenyu rusingatongoperi runokosha sei! Vose vakuru navaduku pakati pavanhu vanovanda mumumvuri wamapapiro enyu.

How excellent [is] thy loving-kindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings.

8 Vanogutswa nezvakawanda zvomumba menyu; munovanwisa kubva parwizi rwenyu runofadza.

They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.

9 Nokuti kwamuri ndiko kune chitubu choupenyu; muchiedza chenyu tinoona chiedza.

For with thee [is] the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.

10 Rambai muchiitira rudo kuna avo vanokuzivai, uye kururama kwenyu kuna vane mwoyo yakarurama.

O continue thy loving-kindness to them that know thee; and thy 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, and let not the hand of the wicked remove me.

12 Tarirai vaiti vezvakaipa kuti vawa sei, vakandwa pasi, havagoni kumuka.

There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast down, and shall not be able to rise.
