Mapisarema 69

1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba namaimbirwo a“Maruva eMahapa.” Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Ndiponesei, imi Mwari, nokuti mvura zhinji yakwira kusvikira pamutsipa wangu.

Unto the end. For those who will be changed: of David. Save me, O God, for the waters have entered, even to my soul.

2 Ndinonyura munhope yakadzika, pasina pangatsika makumbo angu. Ndapinda mumvura yakadzika; ndafukidzwa namafashamu.

I have become stuck in a deep quagmire, and there is no firm footing. I have arrived at the height of the sea, and a tempest has overwhelmed me.

3 Ndaneta nokuridza mhere yokuti ndibatsirwe; huro dzangu dzaoma, meso angu aneta nokumirira Mwari wangu.

I have endured hardships, while crying out. My jaws have become hoarse; my eyes have failed. Meanwhile, I hope in my God.

4 Vanondivenga ndisina mhosva vakawanda kupfuura bvudzi romusoro wangu; vanondivenga ndisina mhosva vazhinji, avo vanotsvaka kundiparadza. Ndinomanikidzwa kudzosera zvandisina kuba.

Those who hate me without cause have been multiplied beyond the hairs of my head. My enemies, who persecuted me unjustly, have been strengthened. Then I was required to pay for what I did not take.

5 Munoziva upenzi hwangu, imi Mwari; mhaka yangu haina kuvanzika kwamuri.

O God, you know my foolishness, and my offenses have not been hidden from you.

6 Vaya vane tariro mamuri ngavarege kunyadziswa nokuda kwangu, haiwa Ishe, Jehovha Wamasimba Ose; vanokutsvakai ngavarege kunyadziswa nokuda kwangu, haiwa Mwari waIsraeri.

Let those who wait for you, O Lord, the Lord of hosts, not be shamed in me. Let those who seek you, O God of Israel, not be confounded over me.

7 Nokuti ndinotsunga kusekwa hangu nokuda kwenyu, uye nyadzi dzafukidza chiso changu.

For because of you, I have endured reproach; confusion has covered my face.

8 Ndiri mutorwa kuhama dzangu, nomweni kuvanakomana vamai vangu;

I have become a stranger to my brothers and a sojourner to the sons of my mother.

9 nokuti kushingairira imba yenyu kwandipedza, uye kutuka kwaavo vanokutukai kunowira pamusoro pangu.

For zeal for your house has consumed me, and the reproaches of those who reproached you have fallen upon me.

10 Pandinochema uye ndichitsanya, ndinofanira kushinga pakusekwa;

And I covered my soul with fasting, and it has become a reproach to me.

11 pandinofuka nguo dzamasaga, vanhu vanondiita shumo.

And I put on a haircloth as my garment, and I became a parable to them.

12 Vaya vanogara pasuo vanondiseka, uye ndiri rwiyo rwezvidhakwa.

Those who sat at the gate spoke against me, and those who drank wine made me their song.

13 Asi ndinonyengetera kwamuri, imi Mwari, panguva inokufadzai; murudo rwenyu rukuru, imi Mwari, ndipindurei noruponeso rwenyu rwechokwadi.

But as for me, truly, my prayer is to you, O Lord. This time has pleased you well, O God. In the multitude of your mercy, in the truth of your salvation, hear me.

14 Ndinunurei mumatope, musandirega ndichinyura; ndirwirei kuna vanondivenga, napamvura zhinji yakadzika.

Rescue me from the quagmire, so that I may not become trapped. Free me from those who hate me and from deep waters.

15 Musatendera mvura yamafashamu kuti indifukidze, kana kwakadzika kuti kundimedze kana kuti gomba rizarure muromo waro pamusoro pangu.

Do not allow the tempest of water to submerge me, nor the deep to absorb me. And do not allow the well to close in on me.

16 Ndipindurei, imi Jehovha, zvichibva pakunaka kworudo rwenyu; dzokerai henyu kwandiri nokuda kwetsitsi dzenyu huru.

Hear me, O Lord, for your mercy is kind. Look upon me, according to the fullness of your compassion.

17 Regai kuvanzira muranda wenyu chiso chenyu; ndipindurei nokukurumidza, nokuti ndava mudambudziko.

And do not turn your face away from your servant, for I am in trouble: heed me quickly.

18 Swederai pedyo mundinunure; ndidzikinurei nokuda kwavavengi vangu.

Attend to my soul, and free it. Rescue me, because of my enemies.

19 Munoziva kusekwa kwangu, kunyadziswa nokusakudzwa kwangu; vavengi vangu vose vari pamberi penyu.

You know my reproach, and my confusion, and my reverence.

20 Kusekwa kwaputsa mwoyo wangu, uye kwandisiya ndisisina chingandibatsira; Ndakatsvaka vangandinzwira ngoni, asi ndakavashaya, vangandinyaradza, asi ndakavashayazve.

All those who trouble me are in your sight; my heart has anticipated reproach and misery. And I sought for one who might grieve together with me, but there was no one, and for one who might console me, and I found no one.

21 Vakaisa nduru mune zvokudya zvangu, uye vakandipa vhiniga pandaiva nenyota.

And they gave me gall for my food. And in my thirst, they gave me vinegar to drink.

22 Tafura yagadzirwa pamberi pavo ngaive musungo; ngaive shamhu yokuranga neriva.

Let their table be a snare before them, and a retribution, and a scandal.

23 Meso avo ngaapofumadzwe kuti varege kuona, uye misana yavo iminame nokusingaperi.

Let their eyes be darkened, so that they may not see, and may their back always be crooked.

24 Dururirai hasha dzenyu pamusoro pavo; kutsamwa kwenyu kunotyisa ngakuvakurire.

Pour out your indignation upon them, and may the fury of your anger take hold of them.

25 Nzvimbo yavo ngaisiyiwe; ngaparege kuva nomunhu anogara mumatende avo.

May their dwelling place be deserted, and may there be no one who dwells in their tabernacles.

26 Nokuti vanotambudza vaya vamakarova, uye vanotaura pamusoro pokurwadziwa kwavakakuvadzwa nemi.

For they persecuted whomever you struck. And they have added to the grief of my wounds.

27 Vapei mhosva pamusoro pemhosva; ngavarege kuva nomugove woruponeso rwenyu.

Assign an iniquity upon their iniquity, and may they not enter into your justice.

28 Ngavadzimwe mubhuku roupenyu, uye varege kuverengwa pamwe chete navakarurama.

Delete them from the Book of the Living, and let them not be written down with the just.

29 Ndiri pakurwadziwa nenhamo; ruponeso rwenyu imi Mwari, ngarundidzivirire.

I am poor and sorrowful, but your salvation, O God, has taken me up.

30 Ndicharumbidza zita raMwari norwiyo, uye ndichamukudza nokuvonga.

I will praise the name of God with a canticle, and I will magnify him with praise.

31 Izvi zvichafadza Jehovha kukunda nzombe, kupfuura hando nenyanga dzayo, namahwanda ayo.

And it will please God more than a new calf producing horns and hoofs.

32 Varombo vachazviona uye vachafara, imi vanotsvaka Mwari, mwoyo yenyu ngairarame!

Let the poor see and rejoice. Seek God, and your soul will live.

33 Jehovha anonzwa vanoshayiwa uye haashori vanhu vake vakatapwa.

For the Lord has heard the poor, and he has not despised his prisoners.

34 Denga nenyika ngazvimurumbidze, makungwa nezvose zvinofamba, imomo,

Let the heavens and the earth praise him: the sea, and everything that crawls in it.

35 nokuti Mwari achaponesa Zioni agovakazve maguta aJudha. Ipapo vanhu vachagarako, vagoritora;

For God will save Zion, and the cities of Judah will be built up. And they will dwell there, and they will acquire it by inheritance.

36 Vana vavaranda vake vacharipiwa senhaka, uye avo vanoda zita rake vachagara ikoko.

And the offspring of his servants will possess it; and those who love his name will dwell in it.
