< Mapisarema 75 >

1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba namaimbiro okuti, “Regai kuparadza.” Pisarema raAsafi. Rwiyo. Tinokuvongai, imi Mwari, tinokuvongai, nokuti Zita renyu riri pedyo; vanhu vanotaura nezvamabasa enyu anoshamisa.
To the Chief Musician. "Do not Destroy." A Melody of Asaph, a Song. We have given thanks unto thee, O God, we have given thanks, And, in calling upon thy Name, men have recounted thy wonders.
2 Imi munoti, “Ndinosarudza nguva yakatarwa; ndini ndinotonga zvakarurama.
Surely I will take a set time, —I, with equity, will judge:
3 Panozununguka nyika yose navanhu vayo, ini ndini ndinobata mbiru dzayo zvakasimba. Sera
Earth was melting away with all its inhabitants, I, have fixed the pillars thereof. (Selah)
4 Kuna vanozvikudza ndinoti, ‘Regai kuzvikudzazve,’ uye kuna vakaipa, ndinoti, ‘Regai kusimudza nyanga dzenyu.
I have said to the boasters, Do not boast, And to the lawless, Do not lift up a horn;
5 Regai kusimudzira nyanga dzenyu kudenga; regai kutaura nemitsipa mikukutu.’”
Do not lift up on high your horn, Nor speak of the Rock, with arrogance;
6 Hakuna munhu anobva kumabvazuva kana kumavirira, kana anobva kugwenga angasimudzira munhu.
For neither from east nor west, Nor from the wilderness of the mountains [cometh exaltation];
7 Asi Mwari ndiye anotonga: Anoderedza mumwe, achisimudzira mumwe.
For, God himself, is about to judge, One, he will cast down, Another, he will lift up;
8 Muruoko rwaJehovha mune mukombe uzere newaini inopupuma, yakavhenganiswa nezvinonhuhwira; anoidururira pasi, uye vakaipa vose vapanyika vanoinwa kusvikira pamasese ayo.
For, a cup, is in the hand of Yahweh, Whose wine is foaming, It is full of spiced wine, Which he hath caused to flow from one to another, —Surely, the dregs thereof, they shall drain out—they shall drink, Even all the lawless ones of the earth.
9 Kana ndirini, ndichaparidza izvi nokusingaperi; ndichaimbira Mwari waJakobho rwiyo rwokurumbidza.
But, I, will exult unto times age-abiding, I will sing praises unto the God of Jacob;
10 Ndichagura nyanga dzavakaipa vose, asi nyanga dzavakarurama dzichasimudzirwa kumusoro.
But, all the horns of the lawless, will I hew off, —Exalted shall be the horns of the Righteous One.
