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

Yahweh, hath become king, Let the peoples, tremble, He is enthroned on the cherubim, Let the earth, shake.

Let them thank his Name—great and reverend, Holy, is he!

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

Yea, with the strength of a king—justice, he loveth, —Thou, hast established equity, Justice and righteousness in Jacob, thou, hast wrought.

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

Exalt Yahweh our God, And bow down at his footstool, Holy, is he!

Moses and Aaron, [were] among his priests, And, Samuel, [was] among them who were calling upon his Name, Who were calling upon Yahweh, and, he, used to answer them:

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

In the pillar of cloud, used he to speak unto them, They kept his testimonies, and the statute he gave them.

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

O Yahweh our God! thou, answeredst them, —A pardoning GOD, thou becamest to them, Yet one bringing vengeance on their deeds.

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