Mapisarema 61

1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba, nomutengeranwa une hungiso. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Inzwai kuchema kwangu, imi Mwari; rerekerai nzeve yenyu kumunyengetero wangu.

For the chief musician; on a stringed instrument. A psalm of David. Hear my cry, God; attend to my prayer.

2 Kubva kumigumo yenyika, ndinodanidzira kwamuri, ndinodana sezvo mwoyo wangu woziya; nditungamirirei kudombo rakakwirira kundipfuura.

From the ends of the earth will I call to you when my heart is faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

3 Nokuti imi makanga muri utiziro hwangu, shongwe yakasimba pamusoro pavavengi vangu.

For you have been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy.

4 Ndinopanga kugara mutende renyu nokusingaperi, uye nokuvanda mumumvuri wamapapiro enyu. Sera

Let me live in your tabernacle forever! Let me take refuge under the shelter of your wings. (Selah)

5 Nokuti makanzwa mhiko dzangu, imi Mwari; makandipa nhaka yaavo vanotya zita renyu.

For you, God, have heard my vows, you have given me the inheritance of those who honor your name.

6 Wedzerai mazuva oupenyu hwamambo, makore ake kumarudzi namarudzi.

You will prolong the king's life; his years will be like many generations.

7 Ngaagare pachigaro choushe pamberi paMwari nokusingaperi; gadzai rudo nokutendeka kwenyu kuti zvimudzivirire.

He will remain before God forever.

8 Ipapo ndichagara ndichirumbidza zita renyu nenziyo, uye ndichazadzisa mhiko dzangu zuva nezuva.

I will sing praise to your name forever so that I may perform my vows every day.
