Psalms 37
1 A Psalm of David. Fret not thyself because of evil-doers, neither be thou envious against them that work unrighteousness.
Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Usava neshungu nokuda kwavanhu vakaipa, uye usaitira godo avo vanoita zvakaipa;
2 For they shall soon wither like the grass, and fade as the green herb.
nokuti souswa vachaoma nokukurumidza, somuriwo wakasvibira vachakurumidza kuoma.
3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; dwell in the land, and cherish faithfulness.
Vimba naJehovha uite zvakanaka; gara panyika ufarikane pamafuro manyoro.
4 So shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD; and He shall give thee the petitions of thy heart.
Farikana muna Jehovha, uye iye achakupa zvinodikanwa nomwoyo wako.
5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in Him, and He will bring it to pass.
Isa nzira yako kuna Jehovha; uvimbe naye uye iye achaita izvi;
6 And He will make thy righteousness to go forth as the light, and thy right as the noonday.
achaita kuti kururama kwako kupenye samambakwedza, nokururamisirwa kwako sezuva ramasikati.
7 Resign thyself unto the LORD, and wait patiently for Him; fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
Nyarara pamberi paJehovha, umurindire unyerere; usava neshungu kana vanhu vachibudirira panzira dzavo, pavanoita mano avo akaipa avakaronga.
8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; fret not thyself, it tendeth only to evil-doing.
Rega kutsamwa, uzvidzore pahasha; usava neshungu zvinokutungamirira mune zvakaipa.
9 For evil-doers shall be cut off; but those that wait for the LORD, they shall inherit the land.
Nokuti vasakarurama vachagurwa, asi avo vanomirira Jehovha vachagara nhaka yenyika.
10 And yet a little while, and the wicked is no more; yea, thou shalt look well at his place, and he is not.
Chinguva chiduku duku, vakaipa havachazovapozve; kunyange ukavatsvaka, havazowanikwi.
11 But the humble shall inherit the land, and delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
Asi vanyoro vachagara nhaka yenyika, uye vachafarikana norugare rukuru.
12 The wicked plotteth against the righteous, and gnasheth at him with his teeth.
Vakaipa vanofungira vakarurama mano akaipa, uye vanovarumanyira meno avo.
13 The Lord doth laugh at him; for He seeth that his day is coming.
Asi Ishe anoseka vakaipa nokuti anoziva kuti zuva ravo riri kuuya.
14 The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow; to cast down the poor and needy, to slay such as are upright in the way;
Vakaipa vanovhomora munondo uye vanowembura uta kuti vawisire pasi varombo navanoshayiwa, kuti vauraye avo vane nzira dzakarurama.
15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
Asi minondo yavo ichabaya mwoyo yavo pachavo, uye uta hwavo huchavhunika.
16 Better is a little that the righteous hath than the abundance of many wicked.
Zvishoma zvowakarurama zviri nani kupinda pfuma yavakaipa vazhinji;
17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken; but the LORD upholdeth the righteous.
nokuti simba ravakaipa richavhuniwa, asi Jehovha anotsigira vakarurama.
18 The LORD knoweth the days of them that are wholehearted; and their inheritance shall be for ever.
Mazuva avakarurama anozivikanwa naJehovha, uye nhaka yavo ichagara nokusingaperi.
19 They shall not be ashamed in the time of evil; and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
Panguva yamatambudziko, havanganyadziswi; mumazuva enzara ivo vachava nezvakawanda.
20 For the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the fat of lambs — they shall pass away in smoke, they shall pass away.
Asi vakaipa vachaparara: vavengi vaJehovha vachafanana norunako rweminda, vachanyangarika soutsi.
21 The wicked borroweth, and payeth not; but the righteous dealeth graciously, and giveth.
Vakaipa vanokwereta uye havadzori, asi vakarurama vanopa zvakawanda;
22 For such as are blessed of Him shall inherit the land; and they that are cursed of Him shall be cut off.
avo vanoropafadzwa naJehovha vachagara nhaka yenyika, asi avo vaanotuka vachaparadzwa.
23 It is of the LORD that a man's goings are established; and He delighted in his way.
Kana Jehovha achifarira nzira yomunhu, anosimbisa mafambiro ake;
24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; for the LORD upholdeth his hand.
kunyange akagumburwa, haangawi, nokuti Jehovha anomutsigira noruoko rwake.
25 I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.
Ndakanga ndiri muduku uye zvino ndakwegura, asi handina kumboona vakarurama vachiraswa, kana vana vavo vachipemha chingwa.
26 All the day long he dealeth graciously, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed.
Vanogara vachingopa vamwe, uye vachikweretesa pasina muripo; vana vavo vacharopafadzwa.
27 Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.
Dzoka pane zvakaipa ugoita zvakanaka; ipapo uchagara panyika nokusingaperi.
28 For the LORD loveth justice, and forsaketh not His saints; they are preserved for ever; but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.
Nokuti Jehovha anoda vanoruramisira uye haangazosiyi vanhu vake vakatendeka. Vachadzivirirwa nokusingaperi; asi vana vowakaipa vachaparadzwa;
29 The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.
vakarurama vachagara nhaka yenyika uye vachagara mairi nokusingaperi.
30 The mouth of the righteous uttereth wisdom, and his tongue speaketh justice.
Muromo womunhu akarurama unotaura uchenjeri, uye rurimi rwake runotaura kururamisira.
31 The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps slide.
Murayiro waMwari wake uri pamwoyo wake; tsoka dzake hadzitedzemuki.
32 The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.
Vakaipa vanovandira vakarurama, vachitsvaka upenyu hwavo chaihwo;
33 The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor suffer him to be condemned when he is judged.
asi Jehovha haangavasiyi vari musimba ravo, kana kuvarega vachipomerwa kana vamira pakutongwa.
34 Wait for the LORD, and keep His way, and He will exalt thee to inherit the land; when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.
Rindira Jehovha, uye uchengete nzira yake. Achakusimudzira kuti ugare nhaka yenyika; kana vakaipa voparadzwa, iwe uchazviona.
35 I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a leafy tree in its native soil.
Ndakaona munhu akaipa uye ano utsinye achibudirira somuti wakasvibira pavhu romunyika yawo,
36 But one passed by, and, lo, he was not; yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.
asi nokukurumidza akapfuura uye akasazovapozve; kunyange ndakamutsvaka, haana kuzowanikwa.
37 Mark the man of integrity, and behold the upright; for there is a future for the man of peace.
Cherechedza asina mhosva, ongorora akarurama; ane ramangwana rakanaka munhu worugare.
38 But transgressors shall be destroyed together; the future of the wicked shall be cut off.
Asi vatadzi vose vachaparadzwa; ramangwana rowakaipa richagurwa.
39 But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD; He is their stronghold in the time of trouble.
Ruponeso rwavakarurama runobva kuna Jehovha; ndiye nhare yavo panguva yamatambudziko.
40 And the LORD helpeth them, and delivereth them; He delivereth them from the wicked, and saveth them, because they have taken refuge in Him.
Jehovha anovabatsira uye anovanunura; anovanunura kubva kuna vakaipa uye anovaponesa, nokuti vanovanda maari.
