< Mapisarema 86 >
1 Munyengetero waDhavhidhi. Inzwai, imi Jehovha, mundipindure, nokuti ndiri murombo uye ndinoshayiwa.
A Prayer of David himself. Incline your ear, O Lord, and hear me. For I am needy and poor.
2 Chengetai upenyu hwangu, nokuti ndakazvipa kwamuri. Muri Mwari wangu; ponesai muranda wenyu anovimba nemi.
Preserve my soul, for I am holy. My God, bring salvation to your servant who hopes in you.
3 Ndinzwirei ngoni, imi Ishe, nokuti ndinodana kwamuri zuva rose.
O Lord, be merciful to me, for I have cried out to you all day long.
4 Vigirai muranda wenyu mufaro, nokuti kwamuri, imi Ishe, ndinosimudzira mweya wangu.
Give joy to the soul of your servant, for I have lifted up my soul to you, Lord.
5 Imi munokanganwira uye makanaka, imi Ishe, muzere norudo kuna vose vanodana kwamuri.
For you are sweet and mild, Lord, and plentiful in mercy to all who call upon you.
6 Inzwai munyengetero wangu, imi Jehovha; inzwai kuchemera kwangu ngoni dzenyu.
Pay attention, Lord, to my prayer, and attend to the voice of my supplication.
7 Ndichadana kwamuri pazuva rokutambudzika kwangu, nokuti muchandipindura.
In the day of my tribulation, I cried out to you, because you heeded me.
8 Haiwa Ishe, hakuna akafanana nemi pakati pavamwari; hakuna mabasa akaita seenyu.
There is no one like you among the gods, O Lord, and there is no one like you in your works.
9 Ndudzi dzose dzamakaita dzichauya kuzonamata pamberi penyu, imi Ishe; dzicharumbidza zita renyu.
All the nations, which you have made, will draw near and adore in your presence, O Lord. And they will glorify your name.
10 Nokuti imi muri mukuru uye munoita zvinhu zvinoshamisa; imi moga ndimi Mwari.
For you are great, and you perform wonders. You alone are God.
11 Haiwa Jehovha, ndidzidzisei nzira yenyu, uye ndichafamba muzvokwadi yenyu; ndipei mwoyo mumwe, kuti ndigotya zita renyu.
Lead me, O Lord, in your way, and I will walk in your truth. May my heart rejoice, so that it will fear your name.
12 Ndichakurumbidzai, imi Ishe Mwari wangu, nomwoyo wangu wose; ndicharumbidza zita renyu nokusingaperi.
I will confess to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart. And I will glorify your name in eternity.
13 Nokuti rudo rwenyu rukuru kwandiri; makandirwira paguva rakadzika. (Sheol )
For your mercy toward me is great, and you have rescued my soul from the lower part of Hell. (Sheol )
14 Haiwa Mwari, vanozvikudza vari kundirwisa; boka ravanhu vane utsinye rinotsvaka upenyu hwangu, vanhu vasina hanya nemi.
O God, the iniquitous have risen up against me, and the synagogue of the powerful have sought my soul, and they have not placed you in their sight.
15 Asi, imi Ishe, mune tsitsi uye muri Mwari ane nyasha, anononoka kutsamwa, azere norudo nokutendeka.
And you, Lord God, are compassionate and merciful, being patient and full of mercy and truthful.
16 Dzokerai kwandiri mundinzwire ngoni; ipai simba renyu kumuranda wenyu, uye muponese mwanakomana womurandakadzi wenyu.
Look down upon me and have mercy on me. Grant your authority to your servant, and bring salvation to the son of your handmaid.
17 Ndipei chiratidzo chokunaka kwenyu, kuti vavengi vangu vazvione vagonyadziswa, nokuti imi Jehovha makandibatsira uye mukandinyaradza.
Make me a sign of what is good, so that those who hate me, may look and be confounded. For you, O Lord, have helped me and consoled me.
