¹The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes.

¹Mune nhaurwa yekudarika kowakaipa mukati memoyo wangu ndikati: Hakuna kutya Mwari pamberi pameso ake.

²For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful.

²nekuti anozvibata kumeso kwake, Achiti zvakaipa zvake hazvingazikamwi zvikavengwa.

³The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he hath left off to be wise, and to do good.

³Mashoko omuromo wake ndizvo zvakaipa nokunyengera; Akarega kuzova akachenjera nokuita zvakanaka.

⁴He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not evil.

⁴Anofunga zvakaipa panhovo dzake; Anofamba nenzira isina kunaka; Haasemi zvakaipa.

⁵Thy mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reacheth unto the clouds.

⁵Unyoro bwenyu, Jehovha, hwakasvika kudenga-denga; Kutendeka kwenyu kunosvikira kumakore;

⁶Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O LORD, thou preservest man and beast.

⁶Kururama kwenyu kwakafanana namakomo aMwari; Kutonga kwenyu kwakadzika zvikuru; Jehovha, munochengeta vanhu nemhuka.

⁷How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings.

⁷Unyoro bwenyu, Mwari, hwakanaka-naka sei! Vana vavanhu vanondovanda pasi pomumvuri wamapapiro enyu.

⁸They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.

⁸Vachagutswa kwazvo nezvakakora zveimba yenyu; Muchavamwisa parwizi rwezvinofadza zvenyu.

⁹For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.

⁹Nekuti kwamuri ndiko kune tsime roupenyu; Muchiedza chenyu ndimo matinoona chiedza.

¹⁰O continue thy lovingkindness unto them that know thee; and thy righteousness to the upright in heart.

¹⁰Rambai muchiitira vanokuzivai vunyoro bwenyu; Nokururama kwenyu kuna vane moyo yakarurama.

¹¹Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remove me.

¹¹Rutsoka rwoanozvikudza ngarurege kusvikira kwandiri, Ruoko rwoakaipa ngarurege kundidzinga.

¹²There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast down, and shall not be able to rise.

¹²Apo ndopakawira pasi vaiti vezvakaipa, Vakawisirwa pasi, havangagoni kumukazve.
