Mapisarema 22

¹Mwari wangu, Mwari wangu, mandisiyireiko? Munomirireiko kure pakundibatsira, napamashoko okugomba kwangu?My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?

²Mwari wangu, ndinodana masikati, asi hamupinduri; Nousiku, asi handiwani zororo.O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.

³Asi imi muri mutsvene, Imi mugere parumbidzo dzaIsiraeri.But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.

⁴Madzibaba edu akavimba nemi; Vakavimba, imi mukavarwira.Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.

⁵Vakachema kwamuri, vakarwirwa; Vakavimba nemi, vakasanyadziswa.They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.

⁶Asi ini ndiri honye, handizi munhu; Ndiri chinhu chinozvidzwa navanhu, chinoshorwa navanhu vose.But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.

⁷Vose, vanondiona vanondiseka; Vanoshamisa muromo, vanodzungudza misoro, vachiti,All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head saying,

⁸Chizviisai kuna Jehovha; iye ngaamurwire; Ngaamurwire, zvaanomufarira iye.He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.

⁹Asi ndimi makandibudisa pachizvaro; Makandivimbisa nemi ndichiri pamazamu amai vangu.But thou art he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother’s breasts.

¹⁰Ndakaiswa kwamuri kubva pachizvaro; Imi muri Mwari wangu kubva padumbu ramai vangu.I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother’s belly.

¹¹Regai kuva kure neni; nokuti njodzi iri pedo; Nokuti hapana angabatsira.Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.

¹²Hondo zhinji dzakandikomba; Hondo dzine simba dzaBhashani dzakandipoteredza.Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.

¹³Dzinondishamisira miromo yadzo, Seshumba inoparadza ichiomba.They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.

¹⁴Ndakadururwa semvura, Mapfupa angu ose akasvodogoka; moyo wangu wakafanana nenamo; Wakanyauka mukati moura hwangu.I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.

¹⁵Simba rangu rakaoma sechaenga; Rurimi rwangu rwakanamatira pashaya dzangu; Makandiisa paguruva rorufu.My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.

¹⁶Nokuti imbwa dzakandikomberedza; Ungano yavanoita zvakaipa yakandipoteredza; Vakaboora maoko angu namakumbo angu;For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.

¹⁷Ndingaverenga mapfupa angu ose; Vanonditarira nokundinan’anidza;I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.

¹⁸Vanogovana nguvo dzangu pakati pavo, Vanokanda mijenya pamusoro pehanzu yangu.They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.

¹⁹Asi imi Jehovha, regai kuva kure neni; Imi simba rangu, kurumidzai kundibatsira.But be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste thee to help me.

²⁰Rwirai mweya wangu pamunondo; Mudikanwa wangu pasimba rembwa.Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.

²¹Ndiponesei pamuromo weshumba; Zvirokwazvo, makandipindura ndiri pakati penyanga dzenyati.Save me from the lion’s mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns.

²²Ndichadudzira zita renyu kuhama dzangu; Ndichakurumbidzai pakati peungano.I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.

²³Imi munotya Jehovha, murumbidzei; Imi mose vana vaJakobho, mukudzei; Mumutyei, imi mose vana vaIsiraeri.Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.

²⁴Nokuti haana kuzvidza kana kusema dambudziko raanotambudzwa; Kana kumuvanzira chiso chake; Asi panguva yaakachema kwaari akamunzwa.For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.

²⁵Kurumbidza kwangu paungano huru kunobva kwamuri; Ndicharipa mhiko dzangu pamberi pavanomutya.My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.

²⁶Vanyoro vachadya vakaguta; Vanotsvaka Jehovha ndivo vachamurumbidza; moyo yenyu ngairarame nokusingaperi.The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that seek him: your heart shall live for ever.

²⁷Migumo yose yenyika icharangarira nokudzokera kuna Jehovha; Marudzi ose avahedheni achanamata kwamuri.All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.

²⁸Nokuti ushe ndohwaJehovha; Ndiye mubati wavahedheni.For the kingdom is the LORD’S: and he is the governor among the nations.

²⁹Vakuru vose venyika vachadya nokunamata; Vose vanoburukira kuguruva vachapfugama pamberi pake, Naiye asingagoni kuraramisa mweya wake.All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul.

³⁰Vana vake vachanamata kwaari; Rudzi runotevera ruchaudzwa zvaJehovha.A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.

³¹Vachauya vachidudzira kururama kwake Kuvanhu vachazozvarwa, kuti ndiye wakazviita.They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this.
