¹O god, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.

¹moyo wangu wakasimba, Mwari; Ndichaimba, zvirokwazvo, ndichaimba nziyo dzokurumbidza, nomweya wangu wose.

²Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.

²Muka iwe mutengeramwa nembira; Ini ndimene ndichamuka mangwanani.

³I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.

³Ndichakuvongai Jehovha, pakati pendudzi dzavanhu; Ndichakuimbirai nziyo dzokurumbidza pakati pavahedheni.

⁴For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds.

⁴nekuti tsitsi dzenyu ihuru kumusoro kokudenga-denga, Uye zvokwadi yenyu inosvikira kudenga rose.

⁵Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth;

⁵imwi mukudzwe Mwari, kumusoro kokudenga-denga; Kurumbidzwa kwenyu ngakuve kumusoro kwapasi pose.

⁶That thy beloved may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.

⁶Kuti vadikamwi venyu varwirwe, Tiponesei noruoko rwenyu rworudyi, mutipindure.

⁷God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

⁷Mwari akataura pautsvene hwake, achiti, Ndichafara kwazvo; Ndichaganhura Shekemu, ndichayera mupata weSukoti.

⁸Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;

⁸Giriyadhi ndeyangu naManase ndeyangu; Efuremuwo inhaviro yomusoro wangu; Judha ndiyo tsvimbo yangu youshe.

⁹Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.

⁹Moabhu ndiwo mudziyo wangu wokushambidzira; Pamusoro peEdhomu ndipo pandichakandira shangu yangu; Ndichapururudza nokuda kwaFirisitia.

¹⁰Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?

¹⁰Ndianiko achandiisa muguta rakakombwa namasvingo? Ndianiko achandiperekedza ndiende Edhomu?

¹¹Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts?

¹¹Hamuna kutirasha here, Mwari? Hamubudi Mwari, nehondo dzedu.

¹²Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.

¹²Tibatsirei pamudzivisi wedu; nekuti kubatsira kwavanhu hakuna maturo.

¹³Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.

¹³MunaMwari tichaita noumhare; nekuti ndiye achatsika vadzivisi vedu pasi.
