Mapisarema 8

1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba negititi. Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Haiwa Jehovha, Ishe wedu, zita renyu rakaisvonaka sei panyika yose! Makaisa kubwinya kwenyu kudenga kumusoro.

For the end, concerning the wine-presses, a Psalm of David. O Lord, our Lord, how wonderful is thy name in all the earth! for thy magnificence is exalted above the heavens.

2 Pamiromo yavana navacheche makaisa rumbidzo nokuda kwavavengi venyu, kuti munyaradze muvengi nomutsivi.

Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou perfected praise, because of thine enemies; that thou mightest put down the enemy and avenger.

3 Kana ndichifunga nezvamatenga enyu, iro basa reminwe yenyu, mwedzi nenyeredzi, zvamakarongedza panzvimbo yazvo,

For I will regard the heavens, the work of thy fingers; the moon and stars, which thou hast established.

4 munhu chiiko zvamunomufunga, kana mwanakomana womunhu zvamune hanya naye?

What is man, that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man, that thou visitest him?

5 Makamuita muduku zvishoma pana Mwari, uye mukamushongedza korona yokubwinya nokukudzwa.

Thou madest him a little less than angels, thou hast crowned him with glory and honour;

6 Makamuita mutongi pamusoro pebasa ramaoko enyu; mukaisa zvinhu zvose pasi petsoka dzake:

and thou hast set him over the works of thy hands: thou hast put all things under his feet:

7 makwai ose nemombe, nemhuka dzesango,

sheep and all oxen, yea and the cattle of the field;

8 neshiri dzedenga, nehove dzegungwa, zvose zvinofamba munzira dzomugungwa.

the birds of the sky, and the fish of the sea, the [creatures] passing through the paths of the sea.

9 Haiwa Jehovha, Ishe wedu, zita renyu rakaisvonaka sei panyika yose!

O Lord our Lord, how wonderful is thy name in all the earth!
