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 Leader; upon the Gittith. A Psalm of David. O LORD, our Lord, how glorious is Thy name in all the earth! whose majesty is rehearsed 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 founded strength, because of Thine adversaries; that Thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.

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

When I behold Thy heavens, the work of Thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which Thou hast established;

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

What is man, that Thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that Thou thinkest of him?

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

Yet Thou hast made him but little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.

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

Thou hast made him to have dominion over the works of Thy hands; Thou hast put all things under His feet:

7 makwai ose nemombe, nemhuka dzesango,

Sheep and oxen, all of them, yea, and the beasts of the field;

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

The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea; whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.

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

O LORD, our Lord, how glorious is Thy name in all the earth!
