Mapisarema 60

1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba namaimbirwo e“Ruva reMahapa reSungano.” Rwiyo rweMikitami rwaDhavhidhi. Rwokudzidzisa. Paakarwa neAramu Naharaimu neAramu Zobha, uye panguva yakadzoka Joabhu akaparadza zviuru gumi nezviviri zvavaEdhomu muMupata woMunyu. Makatiramba, imi Mwari, uye mukatirwisa; makanga makatsamwa, zvino tidzorei henyu!

For the Chief Musician; set to Shushan Eduth. Michtam of David, to teach; when he strove with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, and Joab returned, and smote of Edom in the Valley of Salt twelve thousand. O God thou hast cast us off, thou hast broken us down; Thou hast been angry; oh restore us again.

2 Makazungunusa nyika mukaitsemura napakati; gadzirai henyu mitswe yayo, nokuti iri kudengenyeka.

Thou hast made the land to tremble; thou hast rent it: Heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.

3 Makaratidza vanhu venyu nguva dzakaoma; makatipa waini inotidzedzeresa.

Thou hast showed thy people hard things: Thou hast made us to drink the wine of staggering.

4 Asi kuna vanokutyai, makasimudza mureza kuti urege kupfaranyurwa neuta. Sera

Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, That it may be displayed because of the truth. (Selah)

5 Tiponesei uye tibatsirei noruoko rwenyu rworudyi, kuti avo vamunoda varwirwe.

That thy beloved may be delivered, Save with thy right hand, and answer us.

6 Mwari akataura ari muimba yake tsvene achiti: “Ndichaganhura Shekemu nesimba uye ndichayera Mupata weSukoti.

God hath spoken in his holiness: I will exult; I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

7 Gireadhi nderangu, uye Manase ndowangu; Efuremu inguwani yangu yakasimba, Judha itsvimbo yangu.

Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the defence of my head; Judah is my sceptre.

8 Moabhu ndiwo mudziyo wangu wokushambira, pamusoro paEdhomu ndipo pandinokanda shangu yangu; pamusoro paFiristia ndinopururudza mukukunda.”

Moab is my washpot; Upon Edom will I cast my shoe: Philistia, shout thou because of me.

9 Ndianiko achandiisa kuguta rakakomberedzwa? Ndianiko achanditungamirira kuenda kuEdhomu?

Who will bring me into the strong city? Who hath led me unto Edom?

10 Hamusimi, iyemi Mwari, iyemi makatiramba here, uye mukarega kubuda nehondo dzedu?

Hast not thou, O God, cast us off? And thou goest not forth, O God, with our hosts.

11 Tibatsirei pavavengi vedu, nokuti rubatsiro rwavanhu haruna maturo.

Give us help against the adversary; For vain is the help of man.

12 NaMwari wedu, tichakunda, uye achatsikira vavengi vedu pasi.

Through God we shall do valiantly; For he it is that will tread down our adversaries.
