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

The LORD reigneth, let the nations tremble! He sitteth between the cherubs, let the earth quake!

2 Jehovha mukuru paZioni; iye akasimudzirwa pamusoro pendudzi dzose.

Great is the LORD upon Zion; He is exalted over all the nations.

3 Ngavarumbidze zita renyu guru rinotyisa, iye mutsvene.

Let men praise thy great and terrible name! It is holy.

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

Let them declare the glory of the King who loveth justice! Thou hast established equity; Thou dost execute justice in Jacob!

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

Exalt ye Jehovah, our God, And bow yourselves down at his footstool! He 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, with his priests, And Samuel, who called upon his name, —They called upon the LORD, and he answered them.

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

He spake to them in the cloudy pillar; They kept his commandments, And the ordinances which he gave them.

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

Thou, O LORD, our God! didst answer them; Thou wast to them a forgiving God, Though thou didst punish their transgressions!

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

Exalt the LORD, our God. And worship at his holy mountain! For the LORD, our God, is holy.
