Mapisarema 45

1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba waVanakomana vaKora. Masikiri nomuimbirwo wa“Maruva aMahapa.” Rwiyo rwoMuchato. Mwoyo wangu unobvongodzwa nedingindira rakanaka, pandinodetembera mambo ndima dzangu; rurimi rwangu chinyoreso chomunyori anogona.

My heart is composing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made concerning the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.

2 Imi makanakisisa pavanhu vose uye miromo yenyu yakazadzwa nenyasha, sezvo Mwari akakuropafadzai nokusingaperi.

You are fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into your lips: therefore God has blessed you for ever.

3 Sungai munondo wenyu parutivi, imi wamasimba, zvishongedzei nokubwinya noumambo.

Gird your sword upon your thigh, O most mighty, with your glory and your majesty.

4 Paumambo hwenyu kwirai mukunde kwazvo, makamirira chokwadi, kuzvininipisa nokururama; ruoko rwenyu rworudyi ngaruratidze mabasa enyu anotyisa.

And in your majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and your right hand shall teach you terrible things.

5 Miseve yenyu inopinza ngaibaye mwoyo yavavengi vamambo; ndudzi ngadziputsikire pasi petsoka dzenyu.

your arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's enemies; whereby the people fall under you.

6 Chigaro chenyu, imi Mwari, chichagara nokusingaperi-peri; tsvimbo yokururamisira ichava tsvimbo youmambo hwenyu.

Your throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of your kingdom is a right sceptre.

7 Imi munoda kururama uye munovenga zvakaipa; naizvozvo Mwari, Mwari wenyu, akakuisai pamusoro peshamwari dzenyu nokukuzodzai namafuta omufaro.

You love righteousness, and hate wickedness: therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows.

8 Nguo dzenyu dzose dzinonhuwirira mura, arosi nekasia, zvinobva kumizinda yamadzimambo yakashongedzwa nenyanga dzenzou, kurira kwehungiso kunokufadzai.

All your garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made you glad.

9 Vanasikana vamadzimambo vari pakati pavakadzi vanokudzwa; kuruoko rwenyu rworudyi kuno mwenga akashongedzwa negoridhe reOfiri.

Kings' daughters were among your honourable women: upon your right hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir.

10 Teerera, iwe mwanasikana, rangarira, uye urereke nzeve yako: Kanganwa vanhu vako neimba yababa vako.

Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline your ear; forget also your own people, and your father's house;

11 Mambo ayevedzwa norunako rwako; mukudze, nokuti ndiye Ishe wako.

So shall the king greatly desire your beauty: for he is your Lord; and worship you him.

12 Mwanasikana weTire achauya nechipo, vanhu vakapfuma vachatsvaka nyasha kwauri.

And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift; even the rich among the people shall implore your favour.

13 Mwanasikana wamambo akanaka kwazvo mukati meimba yake; nguo yake yakarukirirwa negoridhe.

The king's daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of wrought gold.

14 Akapfeka nguo dzakashongedzwa achaperekedzwa kuna mambo; shamwari dzake idzo mhandara dzinomutevera uye vanouyiswa kwamuri.

She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto you.

15 Vanoperekedzwa vachapinda nomufaro nokufarisisa; vanopinda mumuzinda wamambo.

With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king's palace.

16 Vanakomana venyu vachatsiva nzvimbo yamadzibaba enyu; muchavaita machinda munyika yose.

Instead of your fathers shall be your children, whom you may make princes in all the earth.

17 Ndichaita kuti kurangarirwa kwenyu kurambe kuripo, kusvikira kuzvizvarwa zvose; naizvozvo ndudzi dzichakurumbidzai nokusingaperi-peri.

I will make your name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the people praise you for ever and ever.
