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.
“To the chief musician upon Shoshannim, by the sons of Korach, a Maskil, a song of love.” My heart swelleth with a good speech; I say, “My works shall be for 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.
Thou art more fair than the children of men; grace is poured out over thy lips: therefore hath God blessed thee for ever.
3 Sungai munondo wenyu parutivi, imi wamasimba, zvishongedzei nokubwinya noumambo.
Gird thy sword upon the thigh, O mighty one, [it is] thy glory and thy majesty;
4 Paumambo hwenyu kwirai mukunde kwazvo, makamirira chokwadi, kuzvininipisa nokururama; ruoko rwenyu rworudyi ngaruratidze mabasa enyu anotyisa.
Yea, it is thy majesty: be prosperous, ride along for the cause of truth and meekness and righteousness; and fearful things shall thy right hand teach thee.
5 Miseve yenyu inopinza ngaibaye mwoyo yavavengi vamambo; ndudzi ngadziputsikire pasi petsoka dzenyu.
Thy sharpened arrows—people will fall down beneath thee—[will enter] into the heart of the king's enemies.
6 Chigaro chenyu, imi Mwari, chichagara nokusingaperi-peri; tsvimbo yokururamisira ichava tsvimbo youmambo hwenyu.
Thy throne, given of God, endureth for ever and ever: the sceptre of equity is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
7 Imi munoda kururama uye munovenga zvakaipa; naizvozvo Mwari, Mwari wenyu, akakuisai pamusoro peshamwari dzenyu nokukuzodzai namafuta omufaro.
Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore hath God, thy God, anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy associates.
8 Nguo dzenyu dzose dzinonhuwirira mura, arosi nekasia, zvinobva kumizinda yamadzimambo yakashongedzwa nenyanga dzenzou, kurira kwehungiso kunokufadzai.
Of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia are [fragrant] all thy garments: out of palaces of ivory have they made thee joyful with the sound of music.
9 Vanasikana vamadzimambo vari pakati pavakadzi vanokudzwa; kuruoko rwenyu rworudyi kuno mwenga akashongedzwa negoridhe reOfiri.
Kings' daughters are among those dear to thee: the queen standeth on thy right hand in fine gold of Ophir.
10 Teerera, iwe mwanasikana, rangarira, uye urereke nzeve yako: Kanganwa vanhu vako neimba yababa vako.
Hearken, O daughter, and look, and incline thy ear, and forget thy own people, and thy father's house:
11 Mambo ayevedzwa norunako rwako; mukudze, nokuti ndiye Ishe wako.
Then will the king long for thy beauty; for he is thy Lord; and bow thyself to him.
12 Mwanasikana weTire achauya nechipo, vanhu vakapfuma vachatsvaka nyasha kwauri.
And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift: the rich among the people shall entreat thy favor.
13 Mwanasikana wamambo akanaka kwazvo mukati meimba yake; nguo yake yakarukirirwa negoridhe.
All gloriously attired awaiteth the king's daughter in the inner chamber: of wrought gold is her garment.
14 Akapfeka nguo dzakashongedzwa achaperekedzwa kuna mambo; shamwari dzake idzo mhandara dzinomutevera uye vanouyiswa kwamuri.
In embroidered clothes will she be brought unto the king: virgins that follow her, her companions, are brought unto thee.
15 Vanoperekedzwa vachapinda nomufaro nokufarisisa; vanopinda mumuzinda wamambo.
They are led forth with rejoicings and gladness, they enter into the palace of the king.
16 Vanakomana venyu vachatsiva nzvimbo yamadzibaba enyu; muchavaita machinda munyika yose.
Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children: thou wilt appoint them as princes in all the land.
17 Ndichaita kuti kurangarirwa kwenyu kurambe kuripo, kusvikira kuzvizvarwa zvose; naizvozvo ndudzi dzichakurumbidzai nokusingaperi-peri.
I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the people praise thee for ever and ever.
