Mapisarema 38

¹Haiwa Jehovha, regai kundiraira pakutsamwa kwenyu, Musandiranga nokusafara kwenyu kukuru.O LORD, rebuke me not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

²Nokuti miseve yenyu yandibaya, Ruoko rwenyu runonditsikirira kwazvo.For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore.

³Hakuchina hukukutu panyama yangu nokuda kwehasha dzenyu; Uye hapachina mufaro pamapfupa angu nokuda kwechivi changu.There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin.

⁴Nokuti zvakaipa zvangu zvafukidza musoro wangu; Zvinondiremera somutoro unorema.For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me.

⁵Maronda angu anonhuwa, akaora, Nokuda kwohupenzi hwangu.My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness.

⁶Ndakakombamiswa, ndakakotamiswa kwazvo, Ndinofamba ndichichema zuva rose.I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.

⁷Nokuti chiuno changu chinopisa zvikuru; Hakuchina hukukutu panyama yangu.For my loins are filled with a loathsome disease: and there is no soundness in my flesh.

⁸Ndakati rukutu, ndavhunika kwazvo; Ndakagomera nokuda kwokutambudzika kwomoyo wangu.I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.

⁹Ishe, zvose zvinoda moyo wangu zviri pamberi penyu; Hamuna kuvanzirwa kugomba kwangu.Lord, all my desire is before thee; and my groaning is not hid from thee.

¹⁰moyo wangu unopfura, ndapererwa nesimba rangu; Kana chiri chiedza chameso angu, naicho chabva kwandiri.My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.

¹¹Vanondida, neshamwari dzangu, vanomira kure nokuda kwehosha yangu; Uye hama dzangu dzimire kure.My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.

¹²Vanotsvaka upenyu hwangu vanonditeyira misungo; Uye vanotsvaka kundikuvadza vanotaura zvokuparadzwa kwangu, Asi vanofunga kundinyengera zuva rose.They also that seek after my life lay snares for me: and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long.

¹³Asi ini ndakafanana nematsi, handinzwi; Ndakafanana nembeveve isingashamisi muromo wayo.But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and I was as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.

¹⁴Zvirokwazvo, ndakafanana nomunhu asinganzwi, Asina mhinduro pamuromo wake.Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no reproofs.

¹⁵Nokuti ndimi, Jehovha, wandinotarira; Imi muchapindura, Jehovha Mwari wangu.For in thee, O LORD, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.

¹⁶Nokuti ndakati, Ngavarege kufara pamusoro pangu; Kana rutsoka rwangu ruchitedzemuka, vanozvikudza pamusoro pangu.For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.

¹⁷Nokuti ndinovavarira kugumburwa, Uye njodzi yangu iri pamberi pangu nguva dzose.For I am ready to halt, and my sorrow is continually before me.

¹⁸Nokuti ndichazvireurura zvakaipa zvangu; Ndichachema zvivi zvangu.For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.

¹⁹Asi vavengi vangu vakasvinuka, vane simba, Uye vanondivenga ndisina mhosva vawanda.But mine enemies are lively, and they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.

²⁰Naivowo vanotsiva zvakaipa nezvakanaka, Ndivo vadzivisi vangu, nokuti ndinotevera chinhu chakanaka.They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I follow the thing that good is.

²¹Regai kundisiya, Jehovha; Mwari wangu, regai kuva kure neni.Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me.

²²Kurumidzai kundibatsira, Ishe, imi muponesi wangu.Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.
