Mapisarema 64
1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Ndinzweiwo, imi Mwari, pandinotaura chichemo changu; dzivirirai upenyu hwangu pakutyisidzira kwavavengi.
Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint. Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.
2 Ndivanzei pakurangana kwavakaipa, ndibve pazhowezhowe yeungano yavaiti vezvakaipa.
Hide me from the secret counsel of evildoers, from the tumult of the workers of iniquity,
3 Vanorodza ndimi dzavo seminondo, uye vanonanga namashoko avo semiseve inouraya.
who have whet their tongue like a sword, and have aimed their arrows, even bitter words,
4 Vanopfura vari pakavanda munhu asina mhosva; vanomupfura pakarepo, vasingatyi.
that they may shoot in secret places at a blameless man. Suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.
5 Vanokurudzira mumwe nomumwe wavo pakufunga zvakaipa, vanotaura pamusoro pokuteya misungo yavo, uye vanoti, “Ndianiko achaiona?”
They encourage themselves in an evil purpose. They converse of laying snares secretly. They say, Who will see them?
6 Vanorangana kusaruramisira vachiti, “Tafunga zano rakakwana!” Zvirokwazvo mwoyo nomurangariro womunhu zvinonyengera.
They search out iniquities, saying, We have accomplished a diligent search. And the inward part of man and the heart are deep.
7 Asi Mwari achavapfura nemiseve; pakarepo vachawira pasi.
But God will shoot at them. With an arrow they shall suddenly be wounded.
8 Achaita kuti ndimi dzavo dzivashandukire, uye achavaisa pakuparadzwa; vose vanovaona vachavadzungudzira misoro vachivaseka.
So they shall be made to stumble, their own tongue being against them. All who see them shall wag the head.
9 Marudzi ose avanhu achatya; achaparidza mabasa aMwari, uye achafungisisa zvaakaita.
And all men shall fear. And they shall declare the work of God, and shall wisely consider of his doing.
10 Vakarurama ngavafare muna Jehovha uye vavande maari; vose vakarurama mumwoyo ngavamurumbidze!
A righteous man shall be glad in Jehovah, and shall take refuge in him. And all the upright in heart shall glory.
