Mapisarema 62

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

For the Chief Musician. To Jeduthun. A Psalm by David. My soul rests in God alone. My salvation is from him.

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

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

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

How long will you assault a man? Would all of you throw him down, 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 fully intend to throw him down from his lofty place. 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 in silence for God alone, for my expectation is from him.

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

He alone is my rock and my salvation, 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 honour is with God. 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, you 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 just a breath, and men of high degree are a lie. In the balances they will go up. They are together lighter than a breath.

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

Don’t trust in oppression. Don’t become vain in robbery. If riches increase, don’t set your heart on them.

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

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

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

Also to you, Lord, belongs loving kindness, for you reward every man according to his work.
