Mapisarema 99

1 Jehovha anobata ushe, ndudzi ngadzidedere; anogara pachigaro choushe chiri pakati pamakerubhi, nyika ngaizungunuke.

A psalm for David himself. The Lord hath reigned, let the people be angry: he that sitteth on the cherubims: let the earth be moved.

2 Jehovha mukuru paZioni; iye akasimudzirwa pamusoro pendudzi dzose.

The Lord is great in Sion, and high above all people.

3 Ngavarumbidze zita renyu guru rinotyisa, iye mutsvene.

Let them give praise to thy great name: for it is terrible and holy:

4 Mambo mukuru, anoda kururamisira, imi makasimbisa kururama; muna Jakobho makaita kururamisira nokururama.

And the king’s honour loveth judgment. Thou hast prepared directions: thou hast done judgment and justice in Jacob.

5 Kudzai Jehovha Mwari wedu nokunamata pachitsiko chetsoka dzake; iye mutsvene.

Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore his footstool, for it is holy.

6 Mozisi naAroni vakanga vari pakati pavaprista vake, Samueri akanga ari pakati paavo vaidana kuzita rake, vakadana kuna Jehovha akavapindura.

Moses and Aaron among his priests: and Samuel among them that call upon his name. They called upon the Lord, and he heard them:

7 Akataura kwavari ari mushongwe yegore; vakachengeta zvaakatema nemitemo yaakavapa.

He spoke to them in the pillar of the cloud. They kept his testimonies, and the commandment which he gave them.

8 Haiwa Jehovha Mwari wedu, imi makavapindura; makanga muri Mwari anokanganwira kuna Israeri, kunyange makavaranga pane zvavakaita.

Thou didst hear them, O Lord our God: thou wast a merciful God to them, and taking vengeance on all their inventions.

9 Kudzai Jehovha Mwari wedu mumunamate pagomo rake dzvene, nokuti Jehovha Mwari wedu ndiye mutsvene.

Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore at his holy mountain: for the Lord our God is holy.
