¹Hareruya. Vongai Jehovha, nekuti akanaka; nekuti tsitsi dzake dzinogara nokusingaperi.

¹Praise ye Jah, give thanks to Jehovah, For good, for to the age, [is] His kindness.

²Ndianiko angareva zvinhu zvine simba zvakaitwa naJehovha, Kana kududzira kurumbidza kwake kose?

²Who doth utter the mighty acts of Jehovah? Soundeth all His praise?

³Vakaropafadzwa vanochengeta kururama, Naiye anoita zvakarurama nguva dzose.

³O the happiness of those keeping judgment, Doing righteousness at all times.

⁴Ndirangarirei Jehovha, nounyoro hwamunahwo kuvanhu venyu; Ndishanyirei noruponeso rwenyu.

⁴Remember me, O Jehovah, With the favour of Thy people, Look after me in Thy salvation.

⁵Kuti ndione kukomborerwa kwavasanangurwa venyu, Kuti ndifare kwazvo nomufaro wavanhu venyu, Kuti ndirumbidze pamwechete nenhaka yenyu.

⁵To look on the good of Thy chosen ones, To rejoice in the joy of Thy nation, To boast myself with Thine inheritance.

⁶Takatadza pamwechete namadzibaba edu, Takaita pamwechete namadzibaba edu, Takaita zvisina kururama, takaita zvakaipa.

⁶We have sinned with our fathers, We have done perversely, we have done wickedly.

⁷Madzibaba edu haana kunzwisisa zvishamiso zvenyu paEgipita; Haana kurangarira tsitsi dzenyu zhinji; Asi vakakumukirai pagungwa, ipo paGungwa Dzvuku.

⁷Our fathers in Egypt, Have not considered wisely Thy wonders, They have not remembered The abundance of Thy kind acts, And provoke by the sea, at the sea of Suph.

⁸Kunyange zvakadaro akavaponesa nokuda kwezita rake, Kuti azivise simba rake guru.

⁸And He saveth them for His name`s sake, To make known His might,

⁹Akarairawo Gungwa Dzvuku, rikapwa, Akavafambisa pakadzika sapanenge pabani.

⁹And rebuketh the sea of Suph, and it is dried up, And causeth them to go Through depths as a wilderness.

¹⁰Akavaponesa paruoko rwowaivavenga. Akavadzikunura paruoko rwomuvengi.

¹⁰And He saveth them from the hand Of him who is hating, And redeemeth them from the hand of the enemy.

¹¹Mvura zhinji yakafukidza vadzivisi vavo; Kwakanga kusina nomumwe wavo akasara.

¹¹And waters cover their adversaries, One of them hath not been left.

¹²Ipapo vakatenda mashoko ake; Vakaimba vachimurumbidza.

¹²And they believe in His words, they sing His praise,

¹³Vakachimbidzika kukangamwa mabasa ake; Havana kurindira zano rake.

¹³They have hasted — forgotten His works, They have not waited for His counsel.

¹⁴Asi vakachiva kwazvo-kwazvo murenje, Vakaidza Mwari mugwenga.

¹⁴And they lust greatly in a wilderness, And try God in a desert.

¹⁵Akavapa chavakakumbira; Asi akatuma kuonda mumweya yavo.

¹⁵And He giveth to them their request, And sendeth leanness into their soul.

¹⁶Vakagodora Mozisi pamisasa, NaAroni, mutsvene waJehovha.

¹⁶And they are envious of Moses in the camp, Of Aaron, Jehovah`s holy one.

¹⁷Pasi pakashama pakamedza Dhatani, Pakafukidza boka raAbhirami.

¹⁷Earth openeth, and swalloweth up Dathan, And covereth over the company of Abiram.

¹⁸Moto ukapfuta pakati peboka ravo; Murazvo ukapisa vakaipa.

¹⁸And fire burneth among their company, A flame setteth on fire the wicked.

¹⁹Vakaita mhuru paHorebhi, Vakanamata mufananidzo wakaumbwa.

¹⁹They make a calf in Horeb, And bow themselves to a molten image,

²⁰Vakatsinhana saizvozvo kubwinya kwavo Nomufananidzo wemombe, inochera bundo.

²⁰And change their Honour Into the form of an ox eating herbs.

²¹Vakakangamwa Mwari muponesi wavo, Wakaita zvinhu zvikuru paEgipita;

²¹They have forgotten God their saviour, The doer of great things in Egypt,

²²Mabasa anoshamisa munyika yaHamu, Nezvinhu zvinotyisa paGungwa Dzvuku.

²²Of wonderful things in the land of Ham, Of fearful things by the sea of Suph.

²³Saka akati, Ndinoda kuvaparadza; Dai Mozisi musanangurwa wake asina kumira pamberi pake ipo pakaputsika, Kuti adzore kutsamwa kwake, arege kuvaparadza.

²³And He saith to destroy them, Unless Moses, His chosen one, Had stood in the breach before Him, To turn back His wrath from destroying.

²⁴Zvirokwazvo, vakazvidza nyika inofadza, Havana kutenda shoko rake;

²⁴And they kick against the desirable land, They have not given credence to His word.

²⁵Asi vakanyunyuta mumatende avo, Vakasateerera inzwi raJehovha.

²⁵And they murmur in their tents, They have not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah.

²⁶Saka wakavasimudzira ruoko rwake. Kuti avaparadze murenje;

²⁶And He lifteth up His hand to them, To cause them to fall in a wilderness,

²⁷Uye kuti aparadze vana vavo pakati pavahedheni. Avaparadzire panyika dzose.

²⁷And to cause their seed to fall among nations, And to scatter them through lands.

²⁸Vakazvibatanidzawo naBhaaripeori, Vakadya zvakabayirwa vakafa.

²⁸And they are coupled to Baal-Peor, And eat the sacrifices of the dead,

²⁹Naizvozvo vakamutsamwisa nezvavakaita; Denda ndokupinda pakati pavo.

²⁹And they provoke to anger by their actions, And a plague breaketh forth upon them,

³⁰Ipapo Pinehasi akasimuka, akaita zvakarurama; Denda ndokuguma.

³⁰And Phinehas standeth, and executeth judgment, And the plague is restrained,

³¹Izvozvo zvikanzi kwaari kururama, Kusvikira kumarudzi namarudzi nokusingaperi.

³¹And it is reckoned to him to righteousness, To all generations — unto the age.

³²Vakamutsamwisawo pamvura zhinji yeMeribha, Naizvozvo Mozisi akaoneswa nhamo nokuda kwavo.

³²And they cause wrath by the waters of Meribah, And it is evil to Moses for their sakes,

³³Nekuti vakamukira mweya wake, Iye akataura nehasha nemiromo yake.

³³For they have provoked his spirit, And he speaketh wrongfully with his lips.

³⁴Havana kuparadza ndudzi dzavanhu, Sezvavakanga varairwa naJehovha,

³⁴They have not destroyed the peoples, As Jehovah had said to them,

³⁵Asi vakavengana navahedheni, Vakadzidza mabasa avo;

³⁵And mix themselves among nations, and learn their works,

³⁶Vakashumira zvifananidzo zvavo; Izvo zvikava musungo kwavari.

³⁶And serve their idols, And they are to them for a snare.

³⁷Zvirokwazvo, vakabayira mweya yakaipa vanakomana vavo navanasikana vavo,

³⁷And they sacrifice their sons And their daughters to destroyers,

³⁸Vakateura ropa risina mhosva, iro ravanakomana vavo navanasikana vavo, Vakavabayira zvifananidzo zveKanani; Nyika ikasvibiswa neropa.

³⁸And they shed innocent blood — Blood of their sons and of their daughters, Whom they have sacrificed to idols of Canaan, And the land is profaned with blood.

³⁹Vakasvibiswa saizvozvo namabasa avo, Vakapata pane zvavakaita.

³⁹And they are defiled with their works, And commit whoredom in their habitual doings.

⁴⁰Saka kutsamwa kwaJehovha kwakamukira vanhu vake, Akasema nhaka yake.

⁴⁰And the anger of Jehovah Is kindled against His people, And He doth abominate His inheritance.

⁴¹Akavaisa muruoko rwavahedheni; Vakavavenga ndivo vaivabata.

⁴¹And giveth them into the hand of nations, And those hating them rule over them,

⁴²Vavengi vavo vakavamanikidzawo, Vakaiswa pasi poruoko rwavo.

⁴²And their enemies oppress them, And they are humbled under their hand.

⁴³Akavarwira kazhinji, Asi vakamumukira pakurangana kwavo, Vakanyudzwa muzvakaipa zvavo.

⁴³Many times He doth deliver them, And they rebel in their counsel, And they are brought low in their iniquity.

⁴⁴Kunyange zvakadaro akatarira kutambudzika kwavo, Panguva yaakanzwa kuchema kwavo;

⁴⁴And He looketh on their distress When He heareth their cry,

⁴⁵Akarangarira sungano yake nokuda kwavo, Akazvidemba nokuda kokuwanda kwetsitsi dzake.

⁴⁵And remembereth for them His covenant, And is comforted, According to the abundance of His kindness.

⁴⁶Akavanzwisawo tsitsi Navose vakanga vavatapa.

⁴⁶And He appointeth them for mercies Before all their captors.

⁴⁷Tiponesei, Jehovha Mwari wedu, Tiunganidzei, tibve pakati pavahedheni, Kuti tivonge zita renyu dzvene, Tifarisise pakukurumbidzai.

⁴⁷Save us, O Jehovah our God, and gather us from the nations, To give thanks to Thy holy name, To glory in Thy praise.

⁴⁸Jehovha Mwari waIsiraeri ngaakudzwe, Kubva pakusingaperi kusvikira pakusingaperi. Vanhu vose ngavati, Ameni. Hareruya.

⁴⁸Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age even unto the age. And all the people said, `Amen, praise Jah!`
