Mapisarema 8

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

Yahweh, our Lord, people all over the world know that you [MTY] are very great! Your glory reaches up higher than the heavens!

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

You have taught little children and infants to praise you; they cause your enemies and those who try to (get revenge on/get rid of) you to be silent.

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

When I look up at the sky [at night], and see the things that you have made— the moon and the stars that you have set in place—

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

it is amazing [to me] that [RHQ] you think about people, that you are concerned about [us] humans!

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

You made the angels in heaven to be only a little more important than we are; you caused us to be like kings [MET] and you gave us splendor and honor [DOU]!

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

You put us in charge of everything that you made; you gave us authority over all things—

7 makwai ose nemombe, nemhuka dzesango,

the sheep and the cattle, and even the wild animals,

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

the birds, the fish, and everything [else] that swims in the seas.

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

Yahweh, our Lord, people all over the world know that you [MTY] are very great!
