¹Joßcaßin xye li Kâcuaß: —Lê chakßrabinquil li oc cue xqßuebal anakcuan, aßan êre lâex aj tij.

¹Zvino imwi vapristi, chinzwai uyu murayiro unouya kwamuri.

²Cui incßaß nequebânu li cßaßru ninye ut cui incßaß nequeqßue êchßôl chixqßuebal xlokßal lin cßabaß, texintzßektâna ut lê rosobtesinquil tinsukßisi chokß raylal. Ac xexintzßektâna xban nak incßaß xeqßue êchßôl chixbânunquil li cßaßru xinye êre.

²Kana imwi musingadi kunzwa, kana musingadi kuita nomwoyo wenyu zvandakaraira kuti mukudze zita rangu ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha wehondo ipapo ndichatuma kutuka pamusoro penyu, ndichatuka ropafadzo dzenyu; zvirokwazvo ndatozvituka, nekuti hamuzviiti nomwoyo wenyu.

³Lâin tincuisi lê cuanquil ut tincut saß xnakß êru lix cßot li xul li nequemayeja. Ut texcuisi chirix cab êrech xxiquic lix cßot li xul li nequemayeja.

³Tarirai, ndichatuka vana venyu, ndichanamira ndove kuzviso zvenyu, iyo ndove yemitambo yenyu; muchabviswa pamwechete naro.

⁵Sungano yangu navo yakanga iri youpenyu norugare; ndakavapa izvo kuti vanditye, vakanditya, vakadedera nokuda kwezita rangu.

⁶Murayiro wezvokwadi wakange uri mumuromo wavo, kusarurama hakuna kuwanikwa pamiromo yavo; vakafambidzana neni norugare nokururama, vakadzora vazhinji pazvakaipa.

⁷Lix cßanjel eb laj tij, aßan xcßutbal lix yâlal chiruheb li tenamit. Riqßuineb aßan teßxic li cristian chi rabinquil lix chakßrabinquileb inban lâin xban nak eb laj tij, aßan eb lin takl, chan li nimajcual Dios.
