Mapisarema 55
1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba nemitengeranwa ine hungiso. Rwiyo rweMasikiri rwaDhavhidhi. Rerekerai nzeve yenyu kumunyengetero wangu, imi Mwari; regai kushaya hanya nokukumbira kwangu;
[For the Chief Musician. On stringed instruments. A contemplation by David.] Listen to my prayer, God. Do not hide yourself from my petition.
2 ndinzwei, uye ndipindureiwo. Pfungwa dzangu dzinondinetsa uye ndiri kushushikana,
Attend to me, and answer me. I am restless in my complaint, and moan,
3 pandinonzwa inzwi romuvengi wangu, pandinodzvokorwa navakaipa; nokuti vanodururira matambudziko pamusoro pangu, uye vanondituka mukutsamwa kwavo.
Because of the voice of the enemy, Because of the oppression of the wicked. For they bring suffering on me. In anger they hold a grudge against me.
4 Mwoyo wangu unorwadziwa mukati mangu; kutyisa kworufu kunondiwira.
My heart is severely pained within me. The terrors of death have fallen on me.
5 Kutya nokudedera zvakandibata; kutya kukuru kwakandifukidza.
Fearfulness and trembling have come on me. Horror has overwhelmed me.
6 Ini ndakati, “Haiwa, dai ndina mapapiro enjiva! Ndaibhururukira kure ndikandozorora hangu,
I said, "Oh that I had wings like a dove. Then I would fly away, and be at rest.
7 ndaitizira kure kwazvo, ndikandogara mugwenga; Sera
Look, then I would wander far off. I would lodge in the wilderness." (Selah)
8 ndaikurumidza kundovanda panzvimbo yangu, kure nemafungu nedutu.”
"I would hurry to a shelter from the stormy wind and storm."
9 Nyonganisai vakaipa, imi Ishe, kanganisai mutauro wavo, nokuti ndinoona mhirizhonga nokurwa muguta.
Confuse them, LORD, and confound their language, for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
10 Masikati nousiku vanopoterera masvingo aro chinyararire; utsinye nokumanikidza zviri mukati maro.
Day and night they prowl around on its walls. Malice and abuse are also within her.
11 Masimba okuparadza azere muguta; kutyisidzira nenhema hazvibvi munzira dzaro.
Destructive forces are within her. Threats and lies do not depart from her streets.
12 Dai ndatukwa nomuvengi, ndaigona kushinga hangu; dai muvengi aindimukira, ndaigona kumuvanda hangu.
For it was not an enemy who insulted me, then I could have endured it. Neither was it he who hated me who raised himself up against me, then I would have hid myself from him.
13 Asi ndiwe, munhu akaita seni, mumwe wangu, shamwari yangu yapedyo,
But it was you, a man like me, my companion, and my familiar friend.
14 yandaimbofarira kuwadzana nayo pataifamba navazhinji mumba maMwari.
We took sweet fellowship together. We walked in God's house with company.
15 Rufu ngaruwane vavengi vangu vasingafungiri; ngavaburukire muguva vari vapenyu, nokuti kuipa kwakawana pokugara pakati pavo. (Sheol h7585)
Let death come suddenly on them. Let them go down alive into Sheol. For wickedness is in their dwelling, in the midst of them. (Sheol h7585)
16 Asi ini ndinodana kuna Mwari, uye Jehovha anondiponesa.
As for me, I will call on God. The LORD will save me.
17 Madekwana, mangwanani namasikati ndinochema mukushushikana, uye iye anonzwa inzwi rangu.
Evening, morning, and at noon, I will cry out in distress. He will hear my voice.
18 Anondidzikinura ndisina kukuvara kubva pahondo inondirwisa, kunyange zvazvo vazhinji vachindipikisa.
He has redeemed my soul in peace from the battle that was against me, although there are many who oppose me.
19 Mwari, agere pachigaro choushe nokusingaperi, achavanzwa agovaninipisa, Sera ivo vanhu vasingamboshanduri nzira dzavo, uye vasingatyi Mwari.
God, who is enthroned forever, will hear, and humble them. (Selah) They never change, who do not fear God.
20 Mumwe wangu anorova shamwari dzake; anoputsa sungano yake.
He has stretched out his hand against those who were at peace with him. He has violated his covenant.
21 Mutauro wake unotsvedzerera samafuta, asi kurwa kuri mumwoyo make; mashoko ake anopfavisa kukunda mafuta, asi minondo yakavhomorwa.
His mouth was smooth as butter, but his heart was war. His words were softer than oil, yet they were drawn swords.
22 Kanda kufunganya kwako pana Jehovha uye iye achakusimbisa; haazombotenderi vakarurama kuti vawire pasi.
Throw your burden upon the LORD, and he will take care of you. He will never allow the righteous to be upended.
23 Asi imi, iyemi Mwari, muchaburutsira vakaipa pasi mugomba rokuora; vanhu vanokarira ropa navanyengeri havangararami hafu yamazuva avo. Asi kana ndirini, ndinovimba nemi.
But you, God, will bring them down into the pit of destruction. Bloodthirsty and deceitful men shall not live out half their days, but I will trust in you.
