Mapisarema 97
1 Jehovha anobata ushe, nyika ngaifare; zviwi zviri kure ngazvifare.
UThixo uyabusa, umhlaba kawuthokoze; akuthi amakhumbi akude ajabule.
2 Makore nerima guru zvakamukomberedza; kururama nokururamisira ndidzo nheyo dzechigaro chake choushe.
Amayezi lomnyama omkhulu kumsibekele; ukulunga lokwahlulela kuhle kuyisisekelo sesihlalo Sakhe sobukhosi.
3 Moto unoenda mberi kwake uchipisa vavengi vake kumativi ose.
Umlilo uhamba phambi Kwakhe uzihangule izitha zakhe inxa zonke.
4 Mheni yake inovhenekera pasi; nyika inozviona igodedera.
Umbane wakhe ukhanyisa umhlaba; umhlaba ukubone lokho uthuthumele.
5 Makomo anonyungudika senamo pamberi paJehovha, pamberi paIshe wenyika yose.
Izintaba zincibilika njengengcino phambi kukaThixo, phambi kweNkosi yomhlaba wonke.
6 Kudenga denga kunoparidza kururama kwake, uye vanhu vose vanoona kubwinya kwake.

7 Vose vanonamata zvifananidzo vanonyadziswa, avo vanozvirumbidza nezvifananidzo, munamatei, imi vamwari vose!
Bonke abakhonza izifanekiso bathelwa ihlazo, labo abazikhukhumeza ngezithombe mkhonzeni, lonke lina bonkulunkulu!
8 Zioni rinonzwa rigofara uye misha yeJudha inofara nokuda kwezvamakatonga, imi Jehovha.
IZiyoni iyezwa ithokoze lemizi yakoJuda iyajabula ngenxa yokwahlulela Kwakho, Oh Thixo.
9 Nokuti imi, iyemi Jehovha, ndimi Wokumusoro-soro pasi pose; makasimudzirwa kupfuura vamwari vose.
Ngoba wena, Oh Thixo ungoPhezukonke kuwo wonke umhlaba; uphakeme ngaphezulu kakhulu kwabonkulunkulu bonke.
10 Vanoda Jehovha ngavavenge zvakaipa, nokuti anorinda upenyu kwavanhu vake vakatendeka uye anovarwira muruoko rwowakaipa.
Akuthi bonke abamthandayo, uThixo, bazonde okubi, ngoba uyazilinda impilo zabathembekileyo bakhe abakhulule esandleni sababi.
11 Chiedza chinovhenekera pamusoro pavakarurama, nomufaro pamusoro pavane mwoyo yakarurama.
Ukukhanya kuyehliselwa kwabalungileyo lentokozo kwabaqotho enhliziyweni.
12 Farai muna Jehovha, imi vakarurama, uye mukudze zita rake dzvene.
Thokozani kuThixo lina elilungileyo, lidumise ibizo lakhe elingcwele.
