Mapisarema 62

1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba. Kuna Jedhutuni. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Mweya wangu unozorora muna Mwari oga; ruponeso rwangu runobva kwaari.

For the choirmaster. According to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. In God alone my soul finds rest; my salvation comes from Him.

2 Iye oga ndiye dombo rangu noruponeso rwangu; ndiye nhare yangu, handingambozungunuswi.

He alone is my rock and my salvation. He is my fortress; I will never be shaken.

3 Muchasvika kupiko muchingorova munhu? Ko, imi mose muchamukanda pasi here, iyeyu rusvingo rwakarereka, noruzhowa rwuri kuwa?

How long will you threaten a man? Will all of you throw him down like a leaning wall or a tottering fence?

4 Vanofunga kwazvo zvokumuwisira pasi kubva panzvimbo yake yakakwirira; vanofarira nhema. Vanoropafadza nemiromo yavo, Asi vachituka mumwoyo yavo. Sera

They fully intend to cast him down from his lofty perch; they delight in lies; with their mouths they bless, but inwardly they curse.

5 Iwe mweya wangu, zviwanire zororo muna Mwari oga; tariro yangu inobva kwaari.

Rest in God alone, O my soul, for my hope comes from Him.

6 Ndiye oga dombo rangu noruponeso rwangu; ndiye nhare yangu, handingazungunuswi.

He alone is my rock and my salvation; He is my fortress; I will not be shaken.

7 Ruponeso rwangu nokukudzwa kwangu zvinobva kuna Mwari; ndiye dombo rangu guru, noutiziro hwangu.

My salvation and my honor rest on God, my strong rock; 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, O people; pour out your hearts before Him. God is our refuge.

9 Vanhu vasina maturo vanongova mweya zvawo, asi vanokudzwa inhema bedzi; kana vakayerwa havaremi, havasi chinhu; vose pamwe chete vanongova mweya.

Lowborn men are but a vapor, the exalted but a lie. Weighed on the scale, they go up; together they are but a vapor.

10 Regai kuvimba noupambi kana kuzvikudza nezvinhu zvokuba; kunyange pfuma yenyu ichiwanda, regai kuisa mwoyo yenyu pairi.

Place no trust in extortion, or false hope in stolen goods. If your riches increase, do not set your heart upon them.

11 Chinhu chimwe chakataurwa naMwari, zvinhu zviviri zvandakanzwa: Kuti imi, iyemi Mwari, mune simba,

God has spoken once; I have heard this twice: that power belongs to God,

12 uye kuti imi, iyemi Ishe, mune rudo. Zvirokwazvo muchapa mubayiro kumunhu mumwe nomumwe maererano nezvaakaita.

and loving devotion to You, O Lord. For You will repay each man according to his deeds.
