Mapisarema 62
1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba. Kuna Jedhutuni. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Mweya wangu unozorora muna Mwari oga; ruponeso rwangu runobva kwaari.
“For the leader of the music of the Jeduthunites, A psalm of David.” Truly my soul resteth on God alone; From him cometh my deliverance!
2 Iye oga ndiye dombo rangu noruponeso rwangu; ndiye nhare yangu, handingambozungunuswi.
He alone is my rock and my salvation; He is my safeguard, I shall not wholly fall!
3 Muchasvika kupiko muchingorova munhu? Ko, imi mose muchamukanda pasi here, iyeyu rusvingo rwakarereka, noruzhowa rwuri kuwa?
How long will ye continue to assault a single man? How long will ye all seek to destroy me, Like a bending 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 study how to cast me down from my eminence; They delight in falsehood; They bless with their mouths, but in their hearts they curse.
5 Iwe mweya wangu, zviwanire zororo muna Mwari oga; tariro yangu inobva kwaari.
My soul, rest thou on God alone, For from him cometh my hope!
6 Ndiye oga dombo rangu noruponeso rwangu; ndiye nhare yangu, handingazungunuswi.
He alone is my rock and my salvation; He is my safeguard, —I shall not fall.
7 Ruponeso rwangu nokukudzwa kwangu zvinobva kuna Mwari; ndiye dombo rangu guru, noutiziro hwangu.
From God cometh my help and my glory: My strong rock, my refuge, is 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 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.
Truly men of low degree are vanity, And men of high degree are a lie; Placed in the balance, They are all lighter than vanity.
10 Regai kuvimba noupambi kana kuzvikudza nezvinhu zvokuba; kunyange pfuma yenyu ichiwanda, regai kuisa mwoyo yenyu pairi.
Trust not in extortion; Place no vain hopes in rapine! If riches increase, set not your heart upon them!
11 Chinhu chimwe chakataurwa naMwari, zvinhu zviviri zvandakanzwa: Kuti imi, iyemi Mwari, mune simba,
Once hath God promised, twice have I heard it, That power belongeth unto God.
12 uye kuti imi, iyemi Ishe, mune rudo. Zvirokwazvo muchapa mubayiro kumunhu mumwe nomumwe maererano nezvaakaita.
To thee also, O Lord! belongeth mercy; For thou dost render to every man according to his work!
