< Mapisarema 62 >
1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba. Kuna Jedhutuni. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Mweya wangu unozorora muna Mwari oga; ruponeso rwangu runobva kwaari.
For the Chief Musician; after the manner of Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. My soul waiteth in silence for God only: From him [cometh] my salvation.
2 Iye oga ndiye dombo rangu noruponeso rwangu; ndiye nhare yangu, handingambozungunuswi.
He only is my rock and my salvation: [He is] my high tower; I shall not be greatly moved.
3 Muchasvika kupiko muchingorova munhu? Ko, imi mose muchamukanda pasi here, iyeyu rusvingo rwakarereka, noruzhowa rwuri kuwa?
How long will ye set upon a man, That ye may slay [him], all of you, Like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?
4 Vanofunga kwazvo zvokumuwisira pasi kubva panzvimbo yake yakakwirira; vanofarira nhema. Vanoropafadza nemiromo yavo, Asi vachituka mumwoyo yavo. Sera
They only consult to thrust him down from his dignity; They delight in lies; They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. (Selah)
5 Iwe mweya wangu, zviwanire zororo muna Mwari oga; tariro yangu inobva kwaari.
My soul, wait thou in silence for God only; For my expectation is from him.
6 Ndiye oga dombo rangu noruponeso rwangu; ndiye nhare yangu, handingazungunuswi.
He only is my rock and my salvation: [He is] my high tower; I shall not be moved.
7 Ruponeso rwangu nokukudzwa kwangu zvinobva kuna Mwari; ndiye dombo rangu guru, noutiziro hwangu.
With God is my salvation and my glory: The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.
8 Vimbai naye nguva dzose, imi vanhu; dururai mwoyo yenyu kwaari, nokuti Mwari ndiye utiziro hwedu. Sera
Trust in him at all times, ye people; Pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. (Selah)
9 Vanhu vasina maturo vanongova mweya zvawo, asi vanokudzwa inhema bedzi; kana vakayerwa havaremi, havasi chinhu; vose pamwe chete vanongova mweya.
Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: In the balances they will go up; They are together lighter than vanity.
10 Regai kuvimba noupambi kana kuzvikudza nezvinhu zvokuba; kunyange pfuma yenyu ichiwanda, regai kuisa mwoyo yenyu pairi.
Trust not in oppression, And become not vain in robbery: If riches increase, set not your heart [thereon].
11 Chinhu chimwe chakataurwa naMwari, zvinhu zviviri zvandakanzwa: Kuti imi, iyemi Mwari, mune simba,
God hath spoken once, Twice have I heard this, That power belongeth unto God.
12 uye kuti imi, iyemi Ishe, mune rudo. Zvirokwazvo muchapa mubayiro kumunhu mumwe nomumwe maererano nezvaakaita.
Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth lovingkindness; For thou renderest to every man according to his work.
