Psalms

97

1Jehovha anobata ushe; nyika ngaifare kwazvo; Zviwi zvizhinji ngazvifare.
1The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof.
2Makore nerima zvinomukomberedza; Kururama nokururamisa ndidzo nheyo dzechigaro chake choushe.
2Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne.
3Moto unotungamira pamberi pake, Uchipisa vadzivisi vake pamativi ose.
3A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about.
4Mheni dzake dzakavheneka nyika yose; Pasi pakaona, ndokubvunda.
4His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled.
5Makomo akanyauka senamo pamberi paJehovha, Pamberi paShe wapasi pose.
5The hills melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
6Kudenga-denga kunoparidza kururama kwake, Ndudzi dzose dzakaona kubwinya kwake.
6The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory.
7Vose, vanoshumira mifananidzo yakaveziwa, vanonyadziswa, Ivo vanozvirumbidza pamusoro pezvifananidzo; Namatai kwaari, imwi vamwari vose
7Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship him, all ye gods.
8Ziyoni rakanzwa ndokufara, Navakunda vaJudha vakafara kwazvo; Nokuda kwezvamakatonga, imwi Jehovha.
8Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O LORD.
9nekuti imwi Jehovha, muri kumusoro-soro kwapasi pose; Makakwirira kupfuura vamwari vose.
9For thou, LORD, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods.
10Vengai zvakaipa, imwi munoda Jehovha; Iye anochengeta mweya yavatsvene vake; Unovarwira paruoko rwawakaipa.
10Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.
11Chiedza chinodzvarirwa wakarurama, Nomufaro vane moyo yakarurama.
11Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
12Farai munaJehovha, imwi vakarurama; Vongai pakurangarira utsvene hwake.
12Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
