Mapisarema 70

1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Chikumbiro. Kurumidzai kundiponesa, imi Mwari; Haiwa Jehovha kurumidzai kuuya mundibatsire.

For the end, by David for a remembrance, that the Lord may save me. Draw near, O God, to my help.

2 Vanotsvaka upenyu hwangu ngavanyadziswe uye vakanganiswe; vose vanofarira kuparara kwangu ngavadzorwe shure vanyare.

Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek my soul: let them be turned backward and put to shame, that wish me evil.

3 Vanoti kwandiri, “Hekani waro! Hekani waro!” ngavadzorerwe shure nokuda kwenyadzi dzavo.

Let them that say to me, Aha, aha, be turned back and put to shame immediately.

4 Asi vose vanokutsvakai ngavafare nokufarisisa mamuri; vanoda ruponeso rwenyu ngavagare vachiti, “Mwari ngaakudzwe!”

Let all that seek you exult and be glad in you: and let those that love your salvation say continually, Let God be magnified.

5 Asi ndiri murombo nomushayiwi; uyai nokukurumidza kwandiri, imi Mwari. Imi muri mubatsiri wangu nomurwiri wangu; Haiwa Jehovha, musanonoka.

But I am poor and needy; O God, help me: you are my helper and deliverer, O Lord, delay not.
