1I cried unto the LORD with my voice; with my voice unto the LORD did I make my supplication.
1Ndinodanidzira nenzwi rangu kuna Jehovha; Nenzwi rangu ndinonyengetera kuna Jehovha.
2I poured out my complaint before him; I shewed before him my trouble.
2Ndinodurura kuchema kwangu pamberi pake; Ndinomuzivisa kutambudzika kwangu.
3When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then thou knewest my path. In the way wherein I walked have they privily laid a snare for me.
3Panguva yokumanikidzwa komweya wangu mukati mangu, makaziva nzira yangu. Panzira yandinofamba nayo vakandivanzira musungo.
4I looked on my right hand, and beheld, but there was no man that would know me: refuge failed me; no man cared for my soul.
4Tarirai kurudyi rwangu, muone; nekuti hakuna munhu anondiziva; Ndashaiwa utiziro; hakuna munhu ane hanya nomweya wangu.
5I cried unto thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my refuge and my portion in the land of the living.
5Ndakadanidzira kwamuri, Jehovha; Ndakati, Ndimi utiziro hwangu, Nomugove wangu panyika yavapenyu.
6Attend unto my cry; for I am brought very low: deliver me from my persecutors; for they are stronger than I.
6Teererai kudanidzira kwangu; nekuti ndinoshaiwa simba kwazvo; Ndirwirei panavanonditambudza; nekuti vanondikurira nesimba.
7Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise thy name: the righteous shall compass me about; for thou shalt deal bountifully with me.
7Budisai mweya wangu patirongo, kuti ndivonge zita renyu; Vakarurama vachandipoteredza; nekuti muchandiitira zvakanaka kwazvo.
