Psalms

3

1Haiwa Jehovha, vadzivisi vangu vawanda sei! Vazhinji vanondimukira.
1Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.
2Vazhinji variko vanoti kumweya wangu, Haano ruponeso kuna Mwari.
2Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.
3Asi imwi Jehovha muri nhovo yangu kumativi ose; Kudzo yangu, nomusimudzi womusoro wangu,
3But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
4Ndinodana kuna Jehovha nenzwi rangu, Iye anondipindura ari pagomo rake dzvene.
4I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.
5Ndakavata pasi ndikabatwa nehope; Ndikamuka; nekuti Jehovha anonditsigira.
5I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.
6Handingatyi zviuru zvamazana zvavanhu, Vakandikomberedza kuzorwa neni.
6I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.
7Simukai, Jehovha; ndirwirei, Mwari wangu. Nekuti makarova vavengi vangu vose pashaya dzavo; Makavhuna meno avakaipa.
7Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.
8Ruponeso runobva kuna Jehovha; Kukomborera kwenyu ngakuve pamusoro pavanhu venyu.
8Salvation belongeth unto the LORD: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.
