< Mapisarema 86 >
1 Munyengetero waDhavhidhi. Inzwai, imi Jehovha, mundipindure, nokuti ndiri murombo uye ndinoshayiwa.
A prayer for David himself. Incline thy 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: save thy servant, O my God, that trusteth in thee.
3 Ndinzwirei ngoni, imi Ishe, nokuti ndinodana kwamuri zuva rose.
Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I have cried to thee all the day.
4 Vigirai muranda wenyu mufaro, nokuti kwamuri, imi Ishe, ndinosimudzira mweya wangu.
Give joy to the soul of thy servant, for to thee, O Lord, I have lifted up my soul.
5 Imi munokanganwira uye makanaka, imi Ishe, muzere norudo kuna vose vanodana kwamuri.
For thou, O Lord, art sweet and mild: and plenteous in mercy to all that call upon thee.
6 Inzwai munyengetero wangu, imi Jehovha; inzwai kuchemera kwangu ngoni dzenyu.
Give ear, O Lord, to my prayer: and attend to the voice of my petition.
7 Ndichadana kwamuri pazuva rokutambudzika kwangu, nokuti muchandipindura.
I have called upon thee in the day of my trouble: because thou hast heard me.
8 Haiwa Ishe, hakuna akafanana nemi pakati pavamwari; hakuna mabasa akaita seenyu.
There is none among the gods like unto thee, O Lord: and there is none according to thy works.
9 Ndudzi dzose dzamakaita dzichauya kuzonamata pamberi penyu, imi Ishe; dzicharumbidza zita renyu.
All the nations thou hast made shall come and adore before thee, O Lord: and they shall glorify thy name.
10 Nokuti imi muri mukuru uye munoita zvinhu zvinoshamisa; imi moga ndimi Mwari.
For thou art great and dost wonderful things: thou art God alone.
11 Haiwa Jehovha, ndidzidzisei nzira yenyu, uye ndichafamba muzvokwadi yenyu; ndipei mwoyo mumwe, kuti ndigotya zita renyu.
Conduct me, O Lord, in thy way, and I will walk in thy truth: let my heart rejoice that it may fear thy name.
12 Ndichakurumbidzai, imi Ishe Mwari wangu, nomwoyo wangu wose; ndicharumbidza zita renyu nokusingaperi.
I will praise thee, O Lord my God: with my whole heart, and I will glorify thy name for ever:
13 Nokuti rudo rwenyu rukuru kwandiri; makandirwira paguva rakadzika. (Sheol )
For thy mercy is great towards me: and thou hast delivered my soul out of the lower hell. (Sheol )
14 Haiwa Mwari, vanozvikudza vari kundirwisa; boka ravanhu vane utsinye rinotsvaka upenyu hwangu, vanhu vasina hanya nemi.
O God, the wicked are risen up against me, and the assembly of the mighty have sought my soul: and they have not set thee before their eyes.
15 Asi, imi Ishe, mune tsitsi uye muri Mwari ane nyasha, anononoka kutsamwa, azere norudo nokutendeka.
And thou, O Lord, art a God of compassion, and merciful, patient, and of much mercy, and true.
16 Dzokerai kwandiri mundinzwire ngoni; ipai simba renyu kumuranda wenyu, uye muponese mwanakomana womurandakadzi wenyu.
O look upon me, and have mercy on me: give thy command to thy servant, and save the son of thy handmaid.
17 Ndipei chiratidzo chokunaka kwenyu, kuti vavengi vangu vazvione vagonyadziswa, nokuti imi Jehovha makandibatsira uye mukandinyaradza.
Shew me a token for good: that they who hate me may see, and be confounded, because thou, O Lord, hast helped me and hast comforted me.
