Mapisarema 92
1 Pisarema. Rwiyo rweSabata. Zvakanaka kurumbidza Jehovha nokuimbira zita renyu nziyo, imi Wokumusoro-soro,
A Melody, a Song, For the Sabbath-day. It is good to give thanks to Yahweh, And to sing praises unto thy Name, O Most High;
2 kuparidza rudo rwenyu mangwanani nokutendeka kwenyu usiku,
To declare, in the morning, thy lovingkindness, And thy faithfulness at night;
3 nechiridzwa chine hungiso gumi namaririro akanaka embira.
Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon a harp, With resounding music on the lyre.
4 Nokuti munondifadza namabasa enyu, imi Jehovha; ndinoimba nomufaro nokuda kwamabasa amaoko enyu.
For thou hast made me glad, O Yahweh, in thy doing, In the works of thy hands, will I shout for joy.
5 Haiwa Jehovha, mabasa enyu makuru seiko, ndangariro dzenyu dzakadzika sei!
How great have grown thy works, Yahweh, [How] very deep are laid thy plans!
6 Munhu asina njere haazivi, mapenzi haanzwisisi,
A man that is brutish, cannot know, And, a dullard, cannot discern this: —
7 kuti kunyange vakaipa vachimera souswa, uye vaiti vezvakaipa vose vachikura, vachaparadzwa nokusingaperi.
When the lawless do thrive like grass, And all the workers of iniquity have blossomed, It is that they may be destroyed for ever.
8 Asi imi, iyemi Jehovha, munosimudzirwa nokusingaperi.
But, thou, shalt be on high age-abidingly, O Yahweh.
9 Nokuti zvirokwazvo vavengi venyu, imi Jehovha, zvirokwazvo vavengi venyu vachaparadzwa; vaiti vezvakaipa vose vachaparadzirwa.
For lo! thine enemies, Yahweh, For lo! thine enemies, shall perish, They shall be scattered—all the workers of iniquity;
10 Makasimudzira runyanga rwangu sorwenyati; mafuta akaisvonaka akadururirwa pamusoro pangu.
But thou wilt exalt, as [those of] the buffalo, my horn, I have been anointed, with fresh oil.
11 Meso angu akaona kukundwa kwavadzivisi vangu; nzeve dzangu dzakanzwa kuparadzwa kwavavengi vangu vakaipa.
So hath mine eye descried them who were lying in wait for me, —Of my wicked assailants, mine ears, shall hear.
12 Vakarurama vachakura kwazvo somuchindwe, vachakura somusidhari weRebhanoni;
The righteous, like the palm-tree, shall thrive, Like the cedar in Lebanon, shall he grow;
13 wakadyarwa muimba yaJehovha, vachakura kwazvo muvanze dzaMwari wedu.
They who are planted in the house of Yahweh, In the courts of our God, shall flourish;
14 Vacharamba vachibereka zvibereko pakukwegura kwavo, vachagara vari vanyoro uye vari vatsva.
Still shall they bear fruit in old age, Vigorous and fresh, shall they be:
15 Vachaparidza kuti, “Jehovha akarurama; ndiye Dombo rangu, uye maari hamuna chakaipa.”
To declare that upright is Yahweh, My Rock, and no perversity in him.
