1. “Nditeererei, imi munotevera kururama uye munotsvaka Jehovha: Tarirai kudombo ramakabviswa pariri naparuware pamakacherwa;
2. tarirai kuna Abhurahama, baba venyu, nokuna Sara, akakuberekai. Pandakamudana akanga achingova mumwe chete, ndikamuropafadza ndikamuita vazhinji.
3. Zvirokwazvo Jehovha achanyaradza Zioni, uye achatarira netsitsi pamusoro pamatongo aro ose; achaita magwenga aro kuti afanane neEdheni, marenje aro achafanana nebindu raJehovha. Kupembera nomufaro zvichawanikwa mariri, kuvonga nenzwi rokuimba.
4. “Nditeererei, imi vanhu vangu; ndinzwei imi rudzi rwangu: Ndichakupai murayiro; kururamisira kwangu kuchava chiedza kumarudzi.
5. Kururama kwangu kwoswedera pedyo nokukurumidza, ruponeso rwangu rwuri munzira, uye ruoko rwangu ruchauyisa kururamisira kumarudzi. Zviwi zvichatarira kwandiri uye zvichamirira ruoko rwangu netariro.
6. Simudzirai meso enyu kumatenga, tarirai pasi penyika; matenga achanyangarika soutsi, nyika ichasakara senguo, uye vanogaramo vachafa senhunzi. Asi ruponeso rwangu ruchagara nokusingaperi, kururama kwangu hakuzombogumi.
7. “Ndinzwei, imi munoziva zvakarurama, imi vanhu vane murayiro wangu mumwoyo yenyu: Musatya kuzvidza kwavanhu, uye musavhundutswa nokutuka kwavo.
8. Nokuti chipfuno chichavadya senguo; honye ichavadya sewuru. Asi kururama kwangu kuchagara nokusingaperi, ruponeso rwangu kumarudzi namarudzi.”
9. Muka, muka! Zvishongedze nesimba, iwe ruoko rwaJehovha; muka, sapamazuva akare, sapamarudzi akare. Ko, hausiwe wakagura-gura Rahabhi, ukabaya chikara chiya here?
10. Hausiwe wakaomesa gungwa here, iyo mvura yokwakadzika zvikuru, ukaita mugwagwa makadzika megungwa kuitira kuti vakadzikinurwa vayambuke?
