1Mwari anozikamwa pakati paJudha; Zita rake iguru pakati palsiraeri.
1For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph, a song. In Judah is God known: His name is great in Israel.
2PaSaremiwo ndipo pane tabhenakeri yake, NapaZiyoni ugaro hwake.
2In Salem also is his tabernacle, And his dwelling-place in Zion.
3Ndipo paakavhuna miseve youta; Nenhovo, nomunondo, nokurwa.
3There he brake the arrows of the bow; The shield, and the sword, and the battle. Selah
4imwi munokubwinya, makanaka kwazvo, Kupfuura makomo ezvakapambwa.
4Glorious art thou [and] excellent, From the mountains of prey.
5Vakatsunga pamoyo, vakapambwa, vakavata hope dzavo; Pakati pavarume vane simba hakuna akawana maoko ake.
5The stouthearted are made a spoil, They have slept their sleep; And none of the men of might have found their hands.
6Pakutuka kwenyu, Mwari waJakove, Ngoro nebhiza zvose zvinobatwa nehope dzorufu.
6At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, Both chariot and horse are cast into a deep sleep.
7Imi, iyemi, munofanira kutyiwa; Ndianiko angamira pamberi penyu kana matsamwa?
7Thou, even thou, art to be feared; And who may stand in thy sight when once thou art angry?
8Makanzwisa vanhu kutonga kwenyu kuchibva kudenga; Pasi pakatya, pakanyarara,
8Thou didst cause sentence to be heard from heaven; The earth feared, and was still,
9Panguva yokumuka kwaMwari kuzotonga, Kuti aponese vanyoro vose vapasi.
9When God arose to judgment, To save all the meek of the earth. Selah
10Zvirokwazvo, kutsamwa kwavanhu kuchakurumbidzai; Munozvisunga chiuno nokutsamwa kwakasara.
10Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: The residue of wrath shalt thou gird upon thee.
11Pikai, muripire Jehovha Mwari wenyu; Vose vakamupoteredza ngavauye nezvipo kuna iye anofanira kutyiwa;
11Vow, and pay unto Jehovah your God: Let all that are round about him bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.
12Iye achagura mweya yamachinda; Anotyisa kwazvo madzimambo apasi.
12He will cut off the spirit of princes: He is terrible to the kings of the earth.
