1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba. Nenyere. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Rerekerai nzeve yenyu kumashoko angu, imi Jehovha. Rangarirai chikumbiro changu.
For the Chief Musician, with the flutes. A Psalm by David. Give ear to my words, LORD. Consider my (meditation)
2 Teererai inzwi rokuchema kwangu, Mambo wangu naMwari wangu, nokuti ndinonyengetera kwamuri.
Listen to the voice of my cry, my King and my God, for I pray to you.
3 Mangwanani, munonzwa inzwi rangu, imi Jehovha; mangwanani ndinoisa zvikumbiro zvangu pamberi penyu uye ndichimirira netariro.
LORD, in the morning you will hear my voice. In the morning I will lay my requests before you, and will watch expectantly.
4 Imi hamusi Mwari anofarira zvakaipa; munhu akaipa haangagari nemi.
For you are not a God who has pleasure in wickedness. Evil can’t live with you.
5 Munhu anozvikudza haangamiri pamberi penyu; munovenga vose vanoita zvakaipa.
The arrogant will not stand in your sight. You hate all workers of iniquity.
6 Munoparadza vose vanoreva nhema; vanoteura ropa navanhu vanonyengera, Jehovha anovasema.
You will destroy those who speak lies. The LORD abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.
7 Asi ini, nenyasha dzenyu huru, ndichapinda mumba menyu; norukudzo, ndichakotamira pasi pamberi penyu, ndakatarira kutemberi yenyu tsvene.
But as for me, in the abundance of your loving kindness I will come into your house. I will bow towards your holy temple in reverence of you.
8 Nditungamirirei, imi Jehovha, mukururama kwenyu nokuda kwavavengi vangu, ruramisai nzira yenyu pamberi pangu.
Lead me, LORD, in your righteousness because of my enemies. Make your way straight before my face.
9 Hakuna shoko rinobva mumuromo mavo ringavimbwa naro; mwoyo yavo izere nokuparadza. Huro dzavo iguva rakashama; vanotaura zvinonyengera norurimi rwavo.
For there is no faithfulness in their mouth. Their heart is destruction. Their throat is an open tomb. They flatter with their tongue.
10 Haiwa Mwari, vapei mhosva! Ngavawisirwe pasi nerangano dzavo. Vabvisei nokuda kwezvivi zvavo zvizhinji, nokuti vakakumukirai.
Hold them guilty, God. Let them fall by their own counsels. Thrust them out in the multitude of their transgressions, for they have rebelled against you.
11 Asi vose vanovanda mamuri ngavafare; ngavagare vachiimba nomufaro. Tambanudzirai pamusoro pavo kudzivirira kwenyu, kuitira kuti vaya vanoda zita renyu vafare mamuri.
But let all those who take refuge in you rejoice. Let them always shout for joy, because you defend them. Let them also who love your name be joyful in you.
12 Nokuti zvirokwazvo, imi Jehovha, munoropafadza vakarurama; munovakomberedza nenyasha dzenyu sokunge nenhoo.
For you will bless the righteous. LORD, you will surround him with favour as with a shield.
