Mapisarema 84

1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba namaimbirwo egititi. Pisarema ravanakomana vaKora. Ugaro hwenyu hwakanaka sei, imi Jehovha Wamasimba Ose!

Unto the end, for the winepresses, a psalm for the sons of Core. How lovely are thy tabernacles, O Lord of host!

2 Mweya wangu unopanga, uye unotoziya, nokuda kwezvivanze zvaJehovha; mwoyo wangu nenyama yangu zvinodana kuna Mwari mupenyu.

My soul longeth and fainteth for the courts of the Lord. My heart and my flesh have rejoiced in the living God.

3 Kunyange shiri diki yakazviwanira imba, nenyenganyenga yakazviwanirawo dendere kwaingachochonyera vana vayo, iyo nzvimbo iri pedyo nearitari yenyu, imi Jehovha Wamasimba Ose, Mambo wangu naMwari wangu.

For the sparrow hath found herself a house, and the turtle a nest for herself where she may lay her young ones: Thy altars, O Lord of hosts, my king and my God.

4 Vakaropafadzwa avo vanogara mumba menyu; vanogara vachikurumbidzai. Sera

Blessed are they that dwell in thy house, O Lord: they shall praise thee for ever and ever.

5 Vakaropafadzwa avo vane simba ravo mamuri, vakaisa mwoyo yavo parwendo rweZioni.

Blessed is the man whose help is from thee: in his heart he hath disposed to ascend by steps,

6 Pavanopfuura nomuMupata weBhaka, vanouita nzvimbo yamatsime; mvura yomuzhizha inouzadzawo namadziva.

In the vale of tears, in the place which be hath set.

7 Vanowedzera simba pasimba, kusvikira mumwe nomumwe wavo amira pamberi paMwari muZioni.

For the lawgiver shall give a blessing, they shall go from virtue to virtue: the God of gods shall be seen in Sion.

8 Inzwai munyengetero wangu, imi Jehovha Mwari Wamasimba Ose; rerekerai nzeve yenyu kwandiri, imi Mwari waJakobho. Sera

O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O God of Jacob.

9 Haiwa Mwari, tariraiwo nhoo yedu; ringirai nenyasha dzenyu pamuzodziwa wenyu.

Behold, O God our protector: and look on the face of thy Christ.

10 Zviri nani kuva pavazhe dzenyu kwezuva rimwe chete, kupfuura mazuva zviuru ndiri kumwe; ndingada zvangu kuva murindi womukova weimba yaMwari wangu kukunda kugara mumatende avakaipa.

For better is one day in thy courts above thousands. I have chosen to be an abject in the house of my God, rather than to dwell in the tabernacles of sinners.

11 Nokuti Jehovha Mwari ndiye zuva nenhoo; Jehovha anopa nyasha nokukudzwa; hapana chinhu chakanaka chaanganyima avo vanofamba zvakarurama.

For God loveth mercy and truth: the Lord will give grace and glory.

12 Haiwa Jehovha Wamasimba Ose, akaropafadzwa munhu anovimba nemi.

He will not deprive of good things them that walk in innocence: O Lord of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.
