¹moyo wangu wakasimba, Mwari; Ndichaimba, zvirokwazvo, ndichaimba nziyo dzokurumbidza, nomweya wangu wose.

¹My heart is steadfast, God. I will sing and I will make music with my soul.

²Muka iwe mutengeramwa nembira; Ini ndimene ndichamuka mangwanani.

²Wake up, harp and lyre! I will wake up the dawn.

³Ndichakuvongai Jehovha, pakati pendudzi dzavanhu; Ndichakuimbirai nziyo dzokurumbidza pakati pavahedheni.

³I will give thanks to you, Yahweh, among the nations. I will sing praises to you among the peoples.

⁴nekuti tsitsi dzenyu ihuru kumusoro kokudenga-denga, Uye zvokwadi yenyu inosvikira kudenga rose.

⁴For your loving kindness is great above the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.

⁵imwi mukudzwe Mwari, kumusoro kokudenga-denga; Kurumbidzwa kwenyu ngakuve kumusoro kwapasi pose.

⁵Be exalted, God, above the heavens! Let your glory be over all the earth.

⁶Kuti vadikamwi venyu varwirwe, Tiponesei noruoko rwenyu rworudyi, mutipindure.

⁶That your beloved may be delivered, save with your right hand, and answer us.

⁷Mwari akataura pautsvene hwake, achiti, Ndichafara kwazvo; Ndichaganhura Shekemu, ndichayera mupata weSukoti.

⁷God has spoken from his sanctuary: “In triumph, I will divide Shechem, and measure out the valley of Succoth.

⁸Giriyadhi ndeyangu naManase ndeyangu; Efuremuwo inhaviro yomusoro wangu; Judha ndiyo tsvimbo yangu youshe.

⁸Gilead is mine. Manasseh is mine. Ephraim also is my helmet. Judah is my scepter.

⁹Moabhu ndiwo mudziyo wangu wokushambidzira; Pamusoro peEdhomu ndipo pandichakandira shangu yangu; Ndichapururudza nokuda kwaFirisitia.

⁹Moab is my wash pot. I will toss my sandal on Edom. I will shout over Philistia.”

¹⁰Ndianiko achandiisa muguta rakakombwa namasvingo? Ndianiko achandiperekedza ndiende Edhomu?

¹⁰Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who has led me to Edom?

¹¹Hamuna kutirasha here, Mwari? Hamubudi Mwari, nehondo dzedu.

¹¹Haven’t you rejected us, God? You don’t go forth, God, with our armies.

¹²Tibatsirei pamudzivisi wedu; nekuti kubatsira kwavanhu hakuna maturo.

¹²Give us help against the enemy, for the help of man is vain.

¹³MunaMwari tichaita noumhare; nekuti ndiye achatsika vadzivisi vedu pasi.

¹³Through God, we will do valiantly. For it is he who will tread down our enemies.
