Mapisarema 68
1 Mutungamiri mukuru wokuimba. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Rwiyo. Mwari ngaasimuke, vavengi vake ngavaparadzirwe; vavengi vake ngavatize pamberi pake.
For the Chief Musician; A Psalm of David, a Song. Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered; Let them also that hate him flee before him.
2 Sokupeperetswa kunoitwa utsi nemhepo, saizvozvo vapeperetsei; sokunyauka kunoita namo pamberi pomoto, vakaipa ngavaparare pamberi paMwari.
As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: As wax melteth before the fire, So let the wicked perish at the presence of God.
3 Asi vakarurama ngavafare, vafarisise pamberi paMwari; ngavafare vapembere.
But let the righteous be glad; let them exult before God: Yea, let them rejoice with gladness.
4 Imbirai Mwari, imbirai zita rake nziyo dzokurumbidza, murumbidzei zvikuru iye anofamba pamusoro pamakore, zita rake ndiJehovha, uye farai pamberi pake.
Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: Cast up a highway for him that rideth through the deserts; His name is Jehovah; and exult ye before him.
5 Baba venherera, mudziviriri wechirikadzi, ndiye Mwari ari paugaro hwake utsvene.
A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, Is God in his holy habitation.
6 Vakanga vari voga Mwari akavagarisa mumhuri, anosesedza vasungwa vachiimba; asi mhandu dzinogara panyika yatsva nezuva.
God setteth the solitary in families: He bringeth out the prisoners into prosperity; But the rebellious dwell in a parched land.
7 Pamakatungamirira vanhu venyu, imi Mwari, pamakafamba napakati perenje, Sera
O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, When thou didst march through the wilderness; (Selah)
8 nyika yakazungunuka, matenga akadurura mvura, pamberi paMwari, iye weSinai, pamberi paMwari, iye Mwari waIsraeri.
The earth trembled, The heavens also dropped [rain] at the presence of God: Yon Sinai [trembled] at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
9 Imi Mwari, makanayisa mvura zhinji; mukaita kuti nhaka yenyu yakaneta ifefeterwe.
Thou, O God, didst send a plentiful rain, Thou didst confirm thine inheritance, when it was weary.
10 Vanhu venyu vakagaramo, uye imi Mwari, kubva pane, zvakawanda zvenyu, makariritira varombo.
Thy congregation dwelt therein: Thou, O God, didst prepare of thy goodness for the poor.
11 Ishe akataura shoko, vanhu vakaparidza shoko vaiva vazhinji kwazvo:
The Lord giveth the word: The women that publish the tidings are a great host.
12 “Madzimambo navarwi vakakurumidza kutiza; mumisasa, vanhu vakagovana zvakapambwa.
Kings of armies flee, they flee; And she that tarrieth at home divideth the spoil.
13 Kunyange pamunenge makavata pakati pemoto yemisasa, mapapiro enjiva yangu akafukidzwa nesirivha, minhenga yayo negoridhe rinovaima.”
When ye lie among the sheepfolds, [It is as] the wings of a dove covered with silver, And her pinions with yellow gold.
14 Wamasimba Ose paakaparadzira madzimambo munyika, zvakanga zvakaita sechando chawira pamusoro peZarimoni.
When the Almighty scattered kings therein, [It was as when] it snoweth in Zalmon.
15 Makomo eBhashani makomo oushe; makomo eBhashani akati twi.
A mountain of God is the mountain of Bashan; A high mountain is the mountain of Bashan.
16 Munotaririreiko negodo, imi makomo akati twi, pagomo rakasarudzwa naMwari kuti atongepo, pachagarwa naJehovha pachake nokusingaperi?
Why look ye askance, ye high mountains, At the mountain which God hath desired for his abode? Yea, Jehovah will dwell [in it] for ever.
17 Ngoro dzaMwari dzinosvika makumi ezviuru nezviuru zvezviuru; Ishe akasvika panzvimbo yake tsvene achibva kuSinai.
The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands upon thousands: The Lord is among them, [as in] Sinai, in the sanctuary.
18 Pamakakwira kumusoro, makatungamirira vatapwa mumudungwe wenyu; mukagamuchira zvipo zvaibva kuvanhu, kunyange zvaibva kuna vakapanduka, kuti imi, iyemi Jehovha Mwari, mugarepo.
Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led away captives; Thou hast received gifts among men, Yea, [among] the rebellious also, that Jehovah God might dwell [with them].
19 Ishe ngaarumbidzwe, Mwari Muponesi wedu, anotakura mitoro yedu zuva nezuva. Sera
Blessed be the Lord, who daily beareth our burden, Even the God who is our salvation. (Selah)
20 Mwari wedu ndiMwari anoponesa; kupunyuka parufu kunobva kuna Ishe Jehovha.
God is unto us a God of deliverances; And unto Jehovah the Lord belongeth escape from death.
21 Zvirokwazvo Mwari achapwanya misoro yavavengi vake, panhongonya dzine vhudzi dzaavo vanorambira muzvivi zvavo.
But God will smite through the head of his enemies, The hairy scalp of such a one as goeth on still in his guiltiness.
22 Ishe anoti, “Ndichavabvisa kubva kuBhashani; ndichavabudisa kubva kwakadzika kwegungwa,
The Lord said, I will bring again from Bashan, I will bring [them] again from the depths of the sea;
23 kuti unyike tsoka dzako muropa ravavengi vako, ndimi dzembwa dzako dzichiwanawo mugove wadzo.”
That thou mayest crush [them], [dipping] thy foot in blood, That the tongue of thy dogs may have its portion from [thine] enemies.
24 Mudungwe wenyu wakaonekwa, imi Mwari, mudungwe waMwari wangu naMambo achipinda munzvimbo tsvene.
They have seen thy goings, O God, Even the goings of my God, my King, into the sanctuary.
25 Mberi kuna vaimbi, vachiteverwa navaridzi vemitengeranwa; pamwe chete navarandakadzi vachiridza matambureni.
The singers went before, the minstrels followed after, In the midst of the damsels playing with timbrels.
26 Rumbidzai Mwari paungano huru; rumbidzai Mwari pagungano raIsraeri.
Bless ye God in the congregations, Even the Lord, [ye that are] of the fountain of Israel.
27 Tarirai, rudzi ruduku rwaBhenjamini runovatungamirira, hawo machinda mazhinji aJudha, uye hawo machinda aZebhuruni neaNafutari.
There is little Benjamin their ruler, The princes of Judah [and] their council, The princes of Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.
28 Danai simba renyu, imi Mwari; tiratidzei simba renyu, imi Mwari, sezvamakaita kare.
Thy God hath commanded thy strength: Strengthen, O God, that which thou hast wrought for us.
29 Nokuda kwetemberi yenyu paJerusarema, madzimambo achakuvigirai zvipo.
Because of thy temple at Jerusalem Kings shall bring presents unto thee.
30 Tukai mhuka dziri pakati petsanga, mapoka ehando ari pakati pemhuru dzendudzi. Ngavauye nesirivha, vakazvininipisa. Paradzirai ndudzi dzinofarira kurwa.
Rebuke the wild beast of the reeds, The multitude of the bulls, with the calves of the peoples, Trampling under foot the pieces of silver: He hath scattered the peoples that delight in war.
31 Nhume dzichabva kuIjipiti; Etiopia ichazviisa pasi paMwari.
Princes shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall haste to stretch out her hands unto God.
32 Imbirai Mwari, imi ushe hwepasi, rumbidzai Ishe nenziyo, Sera
Sing unto God, ye kingdoms of the earth; Oh sing praises unto the Lord; (Selah)
33 kuna iye anotasva matenga akare kumusoro, iye anobudisa inzwi rake, inzwi rine simba.
To him that rideth upon the heaven of heavens, which are of old; Lo, he uttereth his voice, a mighty voice.
34 Paridzai simba raMwari, iye ano ushe huri pamusoro peIsraeri, ane simba riri kudenga denga.
Ascribe ye strength unto God: His excellency is over Israel, And his strength is in the skies.
35 Munotyisa imi Mwari, muri panzvimbo yenyu tsvene; Mwari waIsraeri anopa ushe nesimba kuvanhu vake. Mwari ngaarumbidzwe!
O God, [thou art] terrible out of thy holy places: The God of Israel, he giveth strength and power unto [his] people. Blessed be God.
