Mapisarema 88

¹Haiwa Jehovha, Mwari anondiponesa,

²Munyengetero wangu ngausvike pamberi penyu;

³Nokuti mweya wangu uzere nokutambudzika,

⁴Ndinoverengwa pakati paavo vakaburukira kugomba;

⁵Ndakatsaurwa pamwe chete navakafa,

⁶Makandiisa mugomba rakadzika dzika,

⁷Hasha dzenyu dzinorema kwazvo pamusoro pangu,

⁸Makanditorera shamwari dzangu dzapedyo,

⁹meso angu asviba neshungu.

¹⁰Ko, munoratidza zvishamiso zvenyu kuna vakafa here?

¹¹Ko, rudo rwenyu runoparidzwa muguva,

¹²Ko, zvishamiso zvenyu zvinozivikanwa munzvimbo yerima,

¹³Asi ndinochemera rubatsiro kwamuri, imi Jehovha;

¹⁴Seiko, imi Jehovha, muchindiramba

¹⁵Kubvira pauduku hwangu, ndakatambudzika zvokutosvika pedyo norufu;

¹⁶Hasha dzenyu dzakapfuura napamusoro pangu;

¹⁷Zuva rose zvakandipoteredza samafashamu;

¹⁸Makanditorera shamwari dzangu navadikani vangu;
