Mapisarema 122

¹Ndakafara panguva yavakati kwandiri, Hendei kumba kwaJehovha.I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD.

²Tsoka dzedu dzimire Pakati pamasuo ako, Jerusaremu;Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.

³Jerusaremu, iwe wakavakwa seguta rakasanganiswa zvakanaka;Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together:

⁴Ndiko kunokwira ndudzi, ndudzi dzaJehovha, Sezvakarairwa Isiraeri, Kuti vavonge zita raJehovha.Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the LORD.

⁵Nokuti ndiko kwakagadzwa zvigaro zvokutonga, Zvigaro zvoushe zveimba yaDhavhidhi.For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

⁶kumbirirai Jerusaremu rugare; Vanokudai, vachakomborerwa.Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.

⁷Rugare ngaruve mukati mamasvingo ako, Nokufarikana mukati medzimba dzako dzoushe.Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.

⁸Nokuda kwehama dzangu neshamwari dzangu, Ndichati zvino, Rugare ngaruve mukati mako.For my brethren and companions’ sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee.

⁹Nokuda kweimba yaJehovha Mwari wedu Ndichakutsvakira zvakanaka.Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.
