1Mune nhaurwa yekudarika kowakaipa mukati memoyo wangu ndikati: Hakuna kutya Mwari pamberi pameso ake.
1To the Overseer. — By a servant of Jehovah, by David. The transgression of the wicked Is affirming within my heart, `Fear of God is not before his eyes,
2nekuti anozvibata kumeso kwake, Achiti zvakaipa zvake hazvingazikamwi zvikavengwa.
2For he made [it] smooth to himself in his eyes, To find his iniquity to be hated.
3Mashoko omuromo wake ndizvo zvakaipa nokunyengera; Akarega kuzova akachenjera nokuita zvakanaka.
3The words of his mouth [are] iniquity and deceit, He ceased to act prudently — to do good.
4Anofunga zvakaipa panhovo dzake; Anofamba nenzira isina kunaka; Haasemi zvakaipa.
4Iniquity he deviseth on his bed, He stationeth himself on a way not good, Evil he doth not refuse.`
5Unyoro bwenyu, Jehovha, hwakasvika kudenga-denga; Kutendeka kwenyu kunosvikira kumakore;
5O Jehovah, in the heavens [is] Thy kindness, Thy faithfulness [is] unto the clouds.
6Kururama kwenyu kwakafanana namakomo aMwari; Kutonga kwenyu kwakadzika zvikuru; Jehovha, munochengeta vanhu nemhuka.
6Thy righteousness [is] as mountains of God, Thy judgments [are] a great deep. Man and beast Thou savest, O Jehovah.
7Unyoro bwenyu, Mwari, hwakanaka-naka sei! Vana vavanhu vanondovanda pasi pomumvuri wamapapiro enyu.
7How precious [is] Thy kindness, O God, And the sons of men In the shadow of Thy wings do trust.
8Vachagutswa kwazvo nezvakakora zveimba yenyu; Muchavamwisa parwizi rwezvinofadza zvenyu.
8They are filled from the fatness of Thy house, And the stream of Thy delights Thou dost cause them to drink.
9Nekuti kwamuri ndiko kune tsime roupenyu; Muchiedza chenyu ndimo matinoona chiedza.
9For with Thee [is] a fountain of life, In Thy light we see light.
10Rambai muchiitira vanokuzivai vunyoro bwenyu; Nokururama kwenyu kuna vane moyo yakarurama.
10Draw out Thy kindness to those knowing Thee, And Thy righteousness to the upright of heart.
11Rutsoka rwoanozvikudza ngarurege kusvikira kwandiri, Ruoko rwoakaipa ngarurege kundidzinga.
11Let not a foot of pride meet me, And a hand of the wicked let not move me.
12Apo ndopakawira pasi vaiti vezvakaipa, Vakawisirwa pasi, havangagoni kumukazve.
12There have workers of iniquity fallen, They have been overthrown, And have not been able to arise!
