1Benzi rakati mumoyo maro, Mwari hakuna . Vakaora, vakaita zvakaipa zvinonyangadza; Hakuna anoita zvakanaka.
1The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, and have done abominable iniquity. There is no one who does good.
2Mwari, ari kudenga, wakatarira pasi kuvana vavanhu, Kuti aone kana akachenjera aripo, Anotsvaka Mwari.
2God looks down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there are any who understood, who seek after God.
3Mumwe nomumwe wavo akadzokera shure; vakasvibiswa pamwechete; Hakuna anoita zvakanaka, kunyange nomumwe.
3Every one of them has gone back. They have become filthy together. There is no one who does good, no, not one.
4Ko vaiti vezvakaipa havana zivo here? Ivo vanodya vanhu vangu sechingwa, Vasingadani kuna Mwari.
4Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and don’t call on God?
5Vaitya kwazvo ipapo, pakanga pasina chinotyisa; nekuti Mwari akaparadza mafupa aiye akanga akakukomba; Iwe wakavanyadzisa, nekuti Mwari akavarasha.
5There they were in great fear, where no fear was, for God has scattered the bones of him who encamps against you. You have put them to shame, because God has rejected them.
6Dai kuponeswa kwaIsiraeri kwaibva paZiyoni! Kana Mwari achidzosa vanhu vake pakutapwa, Ipapo Jakove achafara kwazvo naIsiraeri achafara.
6Oh that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion! When God brings back his people from captivity, then Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
