Mapisarema 41
1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Akaropafadzwa uyo ane hanya navasina simba; Jehovha anomurwira panguva dzokutambudzika.
TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. O the blessedness of him Who is acting wisely to the poor, In a day of evil YHWH delivers him.
2 Jehovha achamudzivirira uye achachengetedza upenyu hwake; achamuropafadza panyika uye haangamuisi kuchido chavavengi vake.
YHWH preserves him and revives him, He is blessed in the land, And You do not give him into the will of his enemies.
3 Jehovha achamuraramisa panhoo yake yourwere uye achamuponesa panhoo yake yourwere.
YHWH supports [him] on a bed of sickness, You have turned his bed in his weakness.
4 Ini ndakati, “Haiwa Jehovha, ndinzwirei ngoni; ndiporesei, nokuti ndakakutadzirai.”
I said, “O YHWH, favor me, Heal my soul, for I sinned against You,”
5 Vavengi vangu vachindigodora vanoti, “Achafa riniko uye zita rake rigoparara?”
My enemies say evil of me: When he dies—his name has perished!
6 Kana mumwe achiuya kuzondiona, anotaura zvenhema, mwoyo uchiunganidza makuhwa; ipapo anobuda ondozviparadzira kumwe.
And if he came to see—he speaks vanity, His heart gathers iniquity to itself, He goes out—at the street he speaks.
7 Vavengi vangu vose vanoita zevezeve pamwe chete pamusoro pangu; vanondifungira zvakaipisisa, vachiti,
All hating me whisper together against me, Against me they devise evil to me:
8 “Chirwere chakaipa chakamubata, haachambomukizve panzvimbo paakarara.”
A worthless thing is poured out on him, And because he lay down he does not rise again.
9 Kunyange neshamwari yangu yapedyo yandaivimba nayo, yandaigovana zvokudya nayo, yandisimudzira chitsitsinho chayo.
Even my ally, in whom I trusted, One eating my bread, Made the heel great against me,
10 Asi imi, iyemi Jehovha, mune tsitsi neni, ndisimudzei, kuti ndivatsive.
And You, YHWH, favor me, And cause me to rise, And I give repayment to them.
11 Ndinoziva kuti munofadzwa neni, nokuti muvengi wangu haandikundi.
By this I have known, That You have delighted in me, Because my enemy does not shout over me.
12 Munonditsigira pakutendeka kwangu, uye munondiisa pamberi penyu nokusingaperi.
As for me, in my integrity, You have taken hold on me, And cause me to stand before You for all time.
13 Kurumbidzwa ngakuve kuna Jehovha, Mwari waIsraeri, kubva pakusingaperi kusvikira nokusingaperi.
Blessed [is] YHWH, God of Israel, From age to age. Amen and Amen.
