¹Jehovha anobata ushe; vanhu ngavabvunde; Iye agere pakati pamakerubhi; nyika ngaizununguswe.

¹Jehovah hath reigned, peoples tremble, The Inhabitant of the cherubs, the earth shaketh.

²Jehovha mukuru paZiyoni; Ari kumusoro-soro kwavanhu vose.

²Jehovah in Zion [is] great, And high He [is] over all the peoples.

³Ngavarumbidze zita renyu guru rinotyisa; Ndiye Mutsvene.

³They praise Thy name, `Great, and fearful, holy [it] is.`

⁴Simba ramambo rinodawo kururamisa; imwi munosimbisa kururama, Munotonga muchiruramisa pakati paJakove.

⁴And the strength of the king Hath loved judgment, Thou — Thou hast established uprightness; Judgment and righteousness in Jacob, Thou — Thou hast done.

⁵Kudzai Jehovha Mwari wedu, Munamate pachitsiko chetsoka dzake; Ndiye Mutsvene.

⁵Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And bow yourselves at His footstool, holy [is] He.

⁶Mozisi naAroni pakati pavapristi vake, NaSamueri pakati pavanodana zita rake; Vakadana kuna Jehovha, iye akavapindura.

⁶Moses and Aaron among His priests, And Samuel among those proclaiming His name. They are calling unto Jehovah, And He doth answer them.

⁷Akataura navo ari mushongwe yegore; Vakachengeta zvipupuriro zvake nomutemo waakavapa.

⁷In a pillar of cloud He speaketh unto them, They have kept His testimonies, And the statute He hath given to them.

⁸Makavapindura, Jehovha Mwari wedu; Maiva Mwari aivakangamwira, Kunyange makatsiva zvavaiita.

⁸O Jehovah, our God, Thou hast afflicted them, A God forgiving Thou hast been to them, And taking vengeance on their actions.

⁹Kudzai Jehovha Mwari wedu, Namatai pagomo rake dzvene; nekuti Jehovha Mwari wedu ndiye Mutsvene.

⁹Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And bow yourselves at His holy hill, For holy [is] Jehovah our God!
