18 Haiwa Jehovha, imi simba rangu, ndichakudai kwazvo.+
2 Jehovha ndiye ibwe rangu nenhare yangu noMupukunyutsi wangu.+Mwari wangu ndiye dombo rangu. Ndichapotera kwaari,+Ndiye nhoo yangu nenyanga yangu yoruponeso, nzvimbo yangu yakakwirira yakachengeteka.+
3 Ndichashevedzera kuna Iye anofanira kurumbidzwa, iye Jehovha,+Ndichaponeswa pavavengi vangu.+
4 Tambo dzorufu dzakandikomba;+Mafashamo anongoerekana avapo evanhu pasina akarambawo achindityisa.+
5 Tambo dzeSheori dzakandikomba;+Misungo yorufu yakanangana neni.+
6 Ndakaramba ndichidana kuna Jehovha ndichitambudzika,Ndakaramba ndichichemera Mwari wangu kuti ndibatsirwe.+Akanzwa inzwi rangu ari mutemberi yake,+Kuchema kwangu ndiri pamberi pake kuti ndibatsirwe kwakabva kwasvika munzeve dzake.+
7 Nyika yakatanga kuzununguka uye kudedera,+Nheyo dzemakomo dzakazununguswa,+Dzakaramba dzichizunungukira mberi neshure nokuti akanga atsamwiswa.+
8 Utsi hwakakwira huchibva mumhino dzake, moto waibva mumuromo make wakaramba uchiparadza;+Mazimbe akapfuta achibva kwaari.
9 Akakotamisa matenga, akaburuka.+Zarima raiva pasi petsoka dzake.
10 Akauya akatasva kerubhi achibhururuka,+Akauya achibhururuka ari pamapapiro omudzimu.+
11 Akabva aita kuti rima rive nzvimbo yake yokuvanda,+Rakamukomba sedumba rake,Mvura yakasviba, makore matema.+
12 Nokupenya kwaiva pamberi pake, makore ake akapfuura,+Chimvuramabwe nemarasha omoto aibvira.+
13 Jehovha akatanga kutinhira ari kumatenga,+Wokumusorosoro akaita kuti inzwi rake rinzwike,+Chimvuramabwe nemarasha omoto aibvira.
14 Akaramba achituma miseve yake, kuti avaparadzire;+Akatumira mheni, kuti avavhiringidze.+
15 Pasi pemvura pakaonekwa,+Nheyo dzenyika inobereka dzakaiswa pachena+Nokutuka kwenyu, haiwa Jehovha, nemhepo yokufema kwemhino dzenyu.+
16 Aitumira ruoko rwake kubva kumusoro, ainditora,+Aindibudisa mumvura zhinji.+
17 Aindinunura pamuvengi wangu ane simba,+Pane vaya vaindivenga; nokuti vakanga vakasimba kundipfuura.+
18 Vakaramba vachindivinga muzuva renjodzi yangu,+Asi Jehovha akava mutsigiri wangu.+
19 Akandibudisa, akandiisa munzvimbo yakakura;+Aindinunura, nokuti akanga andifarira.+
20 Jehovha anondipa mubayiro unoenderana nokururama kwangu;+Anondiripa zvinoenderana nokuchena kwemaoko angu.+
21 Nokuti ndakachengeta nzira dzaJehovha,+Handina kusiya Mwari wangu nokuita zvakaipa.+
22 Nokuti zvose zvaakatonga zviri pamberi pangu,+Uye handizobvisi mirau yake kwandiri.+
23 Ndichava asina mhosva kwaari,+Ndicharamba ndisingakanganisi.+
24 Jehovha ngaandiripe zvinoenderana nokururama kwangu,+Zvinoenderana nokuchena kwemaoko angu pamberi pake.+
25 Muchava akavimbika kune akavimbika;+Hamuzowaniriwo mhosva murume asina mhosva;+
26 Muchava akachena kumunhu anoramba akachena;+Muchava asina kururama kumunhu asina kururama;+
27 Nokuti muchaponesa vanhu vanotambudzika;+Asi muchaderedza maziso anozvikudza.+
28 Nokuti imi muchabatidza rambi rangu, haiwa Jehovha;+Mwari wangu achaita kuti rima rangu ripenye.+
29 Nokuti nemi ndinogona kumhanyira boka revapambi;+NaMwari wangu ndinogona kukwira rusvingo.+
30 Kana ari Mwari wechokwadi, nzira yake yakakwana;+Shoko raJehovha rakanatswa.+Iye inhoo kuna vose vanopotera kwaari.+
31 Nokuti ndiani mumwe Mwari aripo kunze kwaJehovha?+Nderipi rimwe dombo riripo kunze kwaMwari wedu?+
32 Mwari wechokwadi Ndiye anondisunga kwazvo nesimba,+Achaita kuti nzira yangu ive yakakwana,+
33 Achiita kuti tsoka dzangu dzive sedzenondo hadzi,+Anoita kuti ndirambe ndakamira panzvimbo dzakanyanya kukwirira kwandiri.+
34 Anodzidzisa maoko angu hondo,+Maoko angu akunga uta hwemhangura.+
35 Muchandipa nhoo yenyu yoruponeso,+Ruoko rwenyu rworudyi ruchanditsigira,+Kuzvininipisa kwenyu kuchaita kuti ndive mukuru.+
36 Muchagadzira nzvimbo yakakura zvakakwana pasi pangu nokuda kwetsoka dzangu,+Zviziso zvemakumbo angu hazvizogwedi-gwedi.+
37 Ndichatevera vavengi vangu ndovabata;Handizodzoki kusvikira vaparadzwa.+
38 Ndichavagura-gura zvokuti havazokwanisi kusimuka;+Vachawira pasi petsoka dzangu.+
39 Muchandisunga nesimba nokuda kwehondo;Muchaita kuti vaya vanondimukira vawire pasi pangu.+
40 Muchaita kuti vavengi vangu vandifuratire votiza;+Vaya vanondivenga kwazvo, ndichaita kuti vanyarare.+
41 Vanochemera kubatsirwa, asi hapana muponesi,+Vanochema kuna Jehovha, asi chokwadi haavapinduri.+
42 Ndichavakuya-kuya kusvikira vatsetseka seguruva riri kupeperetswa nemhepo;+Ndichavadurura sematope omumigwagwa.+
43 Muchandipukunyutsa pakutsvakirwa mhosva nevanhu.+Muchandigadza kuti ndive mukuru wemarudzi.+Vanhu vandisina kuziva—vachandishandira.+
44 Vachanditeerera vangonzwa runyerekupe;+Vokune dzimwe nyika vachauya kwandiri vachidedera.+
45 Vokune dzimwe nyika vachapera simba,Vachabuda mumasvingo avo okudzivirira vachibvunda.+
46 Jehovha mupenyu,+ Dombo+ rangu ngarirumbidzwe,Mwari woruponeso rwangu ngaakwidziridzwe.+
47 Mwari wechokwadi ndiye anondiitira mabasa okutsiva;+Anokunda marudzi oaisa pasi pangu.+
48 Anondipukunyutsa pavavengi vangu vakatsamwa;+Muchandisimudzira pamusoro pevaya vanondimukira,+Muchandinunura pamunhu anoita zvechisimba.+
49 Haiwa Jehovha, ndokusaka ndichakurumbidzai ndiri pakati pemamwe marudzi,+Uye ndichaimbira zita renyu.+
50 Iye anoitira mambo wake mabasa makuru oruponeso+Nokuva nomutsa worudo kumuzodziwa wake,+Kuna Dhavhidhi nokuvana vake nokusingagumi.+
