Psalms

149

1Hareruya! Imbirai Jehovha rwiyo rutsva, Nokurumbidzwa kwake paungano yavatsvene.
1Praise ye Jah! Sing ye to Jehovah a new song, His praise in an assembly of saints.
2Isiraeri ngaafarire kwazvo musiki wake; Vana veZiyoni ngavave nomufaro naMambo wavo.
2Israel doth rejoice in his Maker, Sons of Zion do joy in their king.
3Ngavarumbidze zita rake vachimutambira; Ngavamuimbire nziyo dzokurumbidza nengoma nembira.
3They praise His name in a dance, With timbrel and harp sing praise to Him.
4nekuti Jehovha anofarira vanhu vake; Achashongedza vanyoro noruponeso;
4For Jehovah is pleased with His people, He beautifieth the humble with salvation.
5Vatsvene ngavafare kwazvo nokukudziwa; Ngavaimbe nomufaro panhovo dzavo.
5Exult do saints in honour, They sing aloud on their beds.
6Kurumbidza kukuru kwaMwari ngakuve pahuro dzavo, Nomunondo unocheka kose paruoko rwavo;
6The exaltation of God [is] in their throat, And a two-edged sword in their hand.
7Kuti vatsive vahedheni; Varange ndudzi dzavanhu;
7To do vengeance among nations, Punishments among the peoples.
8Kuti vasunge madzimambo avo neketani, Navakuru vavo nezvisungo zvamatare.
8To bind their kings with chains, And their honoured ones with fetters of iron,
9Kuti vavaitire zvavakatongerwa zvakanyorwa; Vatsvene vake vose vachakudzwa naizvozvi. Hareruya!
9To do among them the judgment written, An honour it [is] for all his saints. Praise ye Jah!
