Pisarema 71:1-24
71 Haiwa Jehovha, ndakapotera kwamuri.+Haiwa, dai ndikasambonyadziswa.+
2 Ndinunurei mukururama kwenyu mundipukunyutse.+Rerekerai nzeve yenyu kwandiri mundiponese.+
3 Ivai nhare yangu yedombo yokuti ndipinde nguva dzose.+Rayirai kuti ndiponeswe,+Nokuti muri ibwe rangu nenhare yangu.+
4 Haiwa Mwari wangu, ndipukunyutsei paruoko rwomunhu akaipa,+Pachanza chouya ari kuita zvisina kururama uye achidzvinyirira.+
5 Nokuti muri tariro yangu,+ haiwa Changamire Ishe Jehovha, munhu wandinovimba naye kubvira ndichiri muduku.+
6 Ndakazvitsigira nemi kubvira pandakabuda mudumbu;+Ndimi makandiparadzanisa nenhengo dzomukati dzaamai vangu.+Ndinokurumbidzai nguva dzose.+
7 Ndakaita sechishamiso kuvanhu vazhinji;+Asi imi muri nzvimbo yangu yokupotera yakasimba.+
8 Muromo wangu uzere nokukurumbidzai,+Zuva rose nokunaka kwenyu.+
9 Musandirasa munguva yokukwegura;+Musandisiya simba rangu parinenge rava kupera.+
10 Nokuti vavengi vangu vati nezvangu,+Uye vanorinda mweya wangu varangana pamwe chete,+
11 Vachiti: “Mwari akamusiya.+Teverai mumubate, nokuti hapana mununuri.”+
12 Haiwa Mwari, musaramba muri kure neni.+Haiwa Mwari wangu, kurumidzai kuzondibatsira.+
13 Vaya vari kurwisana nomweya wangu ngavanyadziswe, vaparare.+Vaya vari kunditsvakira dambudziko ngavazvifukidze nokuzvidzwa nokunyadziswa.+
14 Asi ini ndicharamba ndakamirira,+Ndichawedzera pakurumbidzwa kwenyu kwose.
15 Muromo wangu ucharondedzera kururama kwenyu,+Noruponeso+ rwenyu zuva rose,Nokuti handizivi kuwanda kwazvo.+
16 Ndichauya nesimba guru,+ haiwa Changamire+ Ishe Jehovha;Ndichataura nezvokururama kwenyu, kwenyu imi moga.+
17 Haiwa Mwari, makandidzidzisa kubvira ndichiri muduku,+Uye kusvikira zvino ndinoramba ndichizivisa mabasa enyu anoshamisa.+
18 Kunyange ndakwegura uye ndachena musoro, haiwa Mwari, musandisiya,+Kusvikira ndaudza chizvarwa chinotevera nezvoruoko rwenyu,+Ivo vose vaya vachauya, nezvesimba renyu.+
19 Haiwa Mwari, kururama kwenyu kunosvika kumusoro;+Pamusoro pezvinhu zvikuru zvamakaita,+Haiwa Mwari, ndiani akaita semi?+
20 Nokuti makaita kuti ndione kutambudzika kuzhinji nenhamo,+Ndimutsidzirei zvakare;+Ndibudisei zvakare mumvura yakadzika yepanyika.+
21 Kudzai ukuru hwangu,+Ndikombei mundinyaradze.+
22 Iniwo ndichakurumbidzai nechiridzwa chine tambo,+Pamusoro pechokwadi chenyu, haiwa Mwari wangu.+Ndichakuimbirai norudimbwa, haiwa imi Mutsvene waIsraeri.+
23 Miromo yangu ichashevedzera nomufaro pandinenge ndichida kukuimbirai,+Kunyange mweya wangu wamakadzikinura.+
24 Rurimi rwangu ruchataurawo nezvokururama kwenyu zuva rose nenzwi riri pasi,+Nokuti vaya vari kunditsvakira dambudziko vanyadziswa, vatsverudzwa.+
