Mapisarema 3

¹Haiwa Jehovha, vadzivisi vangu vawanda sei! Vazhinji vanondimukira.LORD, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.

²Vazhinji variko vanoti kumweya wangu, Haano ruponeso kuna Mwari.Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.

³Asi imi Jehovha muri nhovo yangu kumativi ose; Kudzo yangu, nomusimudzi womusoro wangu,But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.

⁴Ndinodana kuna Jehovha nenzwi rangu, Iye anondipindura ari pagomo rake dzvene.I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.

⁵Ndakavata pasi ndikabatwa nehope; Ndikamuka; nokuti Jehovha anonditsigira.I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.

⁶Handingatyi zviuru zvamazana zvavanhu, Vakandikomberedza kuzorwa neni.I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.

⁷Simukai, Jehovha; ndirwirei, Mwari wangu; Nokuti makarova vavengi vangu vose pashaya dzavo; Makavhuna meno avakaipa.Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.

⁸Ruponeso runobva kuna Jehovha; Kukomborera kwenyu ngakuve pamusoro pavanhu venyu.Salvation belongeth unto the LORD: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.
