1Ndipindurei kana ndichidana,Mwari wokururama kwangu;Pakumanikidzwa kwangu makandiisa pakafarikana;ndinzwirei tsitsi, munzwe munyengetero wangu.
1Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.
2Nhai vanakomana vavanhu kukudzwa kwangu kuchashandurwa kunyadziswa kusvikira rinhiko? Muchada zvisina maturo , nekutsvaka nhema kusvikira rinhi?
2O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame? how long will ye love vanity, and seek after leasing? Selah.
3Asi zivai kuti Jehovha akazvitsaurira munhu ,anomuda Jehovha uchanzwa kana ndichidana kwaari.
3But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him.
4Ityai murege kutadza; Tauriranai nemoyo yenyu panhovo dzenyu,muti mwii.
4Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah.
5Bayirai zvibayiro zvokururama, muvimbe naJehovha
5Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.
6Vazhinji variko vanoti,Ndianiko achatiratidza zvakanaka? Jehovha simudzirai pamusoro pedu chiedza chechiso chenyu.
6There be many that say, Who will shew us any good? LORD, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.
7makaisa mufaro mumoyo mangu,Unopfuura wavanhu kana zviyo zvavo newaini yavo zvawanzwa.
7Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their wine increased.
8ndichavata pasi nerugare, ndibatwe nehope; nekuti ndimi moga Jehovha munondigarisa pakasimba.
8I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety.
