Mapisarema 63
1 Pisarema raDhavhidhi paakanga ari murenje reJudha. Haiwa Mwari, ndimi Mwari wangu, ndinokutsvakai nomwoyo wose; mwoyo wangu une nyota kwamuri, muviri wangu unokupangai, munyika yakaoma uye yasakara isina mvura.
“A psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.” O God! thou art my God! earnestly do I seek thee! My soul thirsteth, my flesh longeth for thee, In a dry, thirsty land. where is no water!
2 Ndakakuonai munzvimbo yenyu tsvene, uye ndikaona simba renyu nokubwinya kwenyu.
Thus I look toward thee in thy sanctuary, To behold thy power and thy glory!
3 Nokuti rudo rwenyu runokunda upenyu, miromo yangu ichakurumbidzai.
For thy loving-kindness is better than life; Therefore my lips shall praise thee!
4 Ndichakurumbidzai ndichiri mupenyu, uye ndichasimudza maoko angu muzita renyu.
Thus will I bless thee, while I live; In thy name will I lift up my hands!
5 Mweya wangu uchagutswa kunge wadya zvakakora kwazvo; muromo wangu uchakurumbidzai nemiromo inofara kwazvo.
My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness, And with joyful lips my mouth shall praise thee,
6 Ndinokurangarirai ndiri pamubhedha wangu; ndinokufungai panguva dzose dzousiku.
When I think of thee upon my bed, And meditate on thee in the night-watches.
7 Nokuti muri mubatsiri wangu, ndinoimba ndiri mumumvuri wamapapiro enyu.
For thou art my help, And in the shadow of thy wings I rejoice.
8 Mweya wangu unonamatira kwamuri; ruoko rwenyu rworudyi runonditsigira.
My soul cleaveth to thee; Thy right hand holdeth me up.
9 Vanotsvaka upenyu hwangu vachaparadzwa; vachaburukira kwakadzika kwepasi.
While they who seek to destroy my life Shall themselves go down into the depths of the earth.
10 Vachaiswa kumunondo vagova zvokudya zvamakava.
They shall be given up to the sword, And be a portion for jackals.
11 Asi mambo achafara muna Mwari; vose vanopika nezita raMwari vachamurumbidza, asi miromo yavanoreva nhema ichafumbirwa.
But the king shall rejoice in God; All that swear by him shall be honored; But the mouth of liars shall be stopped.
