1Farisai munaJehovha, imwi vakarurama; Kurumbidza kwakafanira vakarurama.
1Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.
2Vongai Jehovha nembira; Muimbirei nziyo dzokurumbidza nomutengeramwa une hungiso dzine gumi.
2Praise the LORD with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings.
3Muimbirei rwiyo rutsva; Ridzai zvakanaka nokuridza kukuru.
3Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.
4nekuti shoko raJehovha rakarurama, Anoita zvose nokutendeka.
4For the word of the LORD is right; and all his works are done in truth.
5Iye anoda kururama nokururamisa; Nyika izere nounyoro hwaJehovha.
5He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the LORD.
6Kudenga-denga kwakaitwa neshoko raJehovha, Uye hondo dzose dzoko nokufema komuromo wake.
6By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.
7Anounganidza mvura zhinji yegungwa pamwechete somurwi; Anochengeta mvura zhinji dzakadzika mumatura.
7He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses.
8Nyika yose ngaitye Jehovha; Vose vagere panyika ngavadedere pamberi pake.
8Let all the earth fear the LORD: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
9nekuti iye akataura, zvikaitika; Akaraira, zvikamira zvikasimba.
9For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.
10Jehovha anoparadza zano ravahedheni; Mifungo yendudzi dzavanhu anoishaisa simba.
10The LORD bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.
11Zano raJehovha rakasimba nokusingaperi, Nendangariro dzomoyo wake kusvikira kundudzi dzose.
11The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
12Rwakakomborerwa rudzi rwakaita Jehovha Mwari warwo; Rudzi rwaakatsaura kuva nhaka yake.
12Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.
13Jehovha anotarira ari kudenga; Anoona vanakomana vose vavanhu;
13The LORD looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.
14Anotarira ari ipapo paagere Achiona vanhu vose vagere panyika.
14From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.
15Iye anoumba moyo yavo vose, Anocherekedza mabasa avo ose
15He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.
16Hapana mambo anoponeswa nokuwanda kwehondo; Mhare hairwirwi nesimba guru.
16There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.
17Bhiza haribatsiri pakukunda; Harigoni kurwira nesimba raro guru.
17An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength.
18Tarirai, ziso raJehovha rinotarira vanomutya, Ivo, vanorindira tsitsi dzake;
18Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;
19Kurwira mweya wavo parufu, Nokuvararamisa panguva yenzara.
19To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
20Mweya yedu yakarindira Jehovha; Ndiye mubatsiri wedu nenhovo yedu.
20Our soul waiteth for the LORD: he is our help and our shield.
21Nekuti moyo yedu ichafara kwazvo maari, Zvatakavimba nezita rake dzvene.
21For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.
22Tsitsi dzenyu ngadzive nesu, Jehovha, Sezvatakakurindirai.
22Let thy mercy, O LORD, be upon us, according as we hope in thee.
