1Nditongerei Jehovha, nekuti ndakafamba nokusanyengera kwangu; Ndakavimbawo naJehovha ndisinganyunyuti.
1Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide.
2Ndinzverei Jehovha, ndiidzei, Natsai itsvo dzangu nomoyo wangu.
2Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.
3Nekuti unyoro bwenyu huri pamberi pameso angu, Ndakafamba muchokwadi chenyu.
3For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.
4Handina kugara navanhu venhema, Handingafambidzani navanyepedzeri.
4I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers.
5Ndinovenga ungano yavanoita zvakaipa, Handingagari navatadzi.
5I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.
6Ndichashambidza maoko angu ndisina mhosva; Ndigopoteredza aritari yenyu saizvozvo, Jehovha.
6I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O LORD:
7Kuti ndiparidze nenzwi rokuvonga, Ndiudze vanhu zvamabasa enyu ose anoshamisa.
7That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works.
8Jehovha, ndinoda hugaro bweimba yenyu, Nenzvimbo panogara kubwinya kwenyu.
8LORD, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth.
9Regai kusanganisa mweya wangu pamwechete navatadzi, Noupenyu hwangu navateuri veropa;
9Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:
10Vakabata zvakashata pamaoko avo, Ruoko rwavo rworudyi ruzere nefufuro.
10In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.
11Asi kana ndirini ndichafamba nokusanyengera kwangu; Ndidzikunurei, mundinzwire tsitsi.
11But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me.
12Rutsoka rwangu rumire pakati chechetere; Ndicharumbidza Jehovha paungano
12My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the LORD.
