¹Nhai, imwi mose mune nyota, uyai kumvura zhinji, nowasina mari, uyai, mutenge mudye; zvirokwazvo, uyai mutenge waini nomukaka, musine mari, pasina mutengo. .

¹Ho, every thirsty one, come ye to the waters, And he who hath no money, Come ye, buy and eat, yea, come, buy Without money and without price, wine and milk.

²Munoparadzireiko mari muchitenga zvisati zviri zvokudya, nesimba renyu muchitenga zvisingagutisi? Nditeererei zvakanaka, mudye zvakanaka,uye mweya yenyu ngaizvifadze muzvakakora.

²Why do ye weigh money for that which is not bread? And your labour for that which is not for satiety? Hearken diligently unto me, and eat good, And your soul doth delight itself in fatness.

³Rerekai nzeve yenyu, muuye kwandiri; inzwai, mweya yenyu igorarama; ndichaita sungano isingaperi nemwi, nyasha dzazvokwadi dzakapikirwa Dhavhidhi.

³Incline your ear, and come unto me, Hear, and your soul doth live, And I make for you a covenant age-during, The kind acts of David — that are stedfast.

⁴Tarirai, ndakamupa ave chapupu kuvanhu, mutungamiriri nomubati kuvanhu.

⁴Lo, a witness to peoples I have given him, A leader and commander to peoples.

⁵Tarira, uchadana rudzi rwausingazivi, norudzi rwawakanga rusingakuzivi, iwe ruchamhanyira kwauri, nokuda kwaJehovha Mwari wako, nokoMutsvene waIsiraeri; nekuti iye akakurumbidza.

⁵Lo, a nation thou knowest not, thou callest, And a nation who know thee not unto thee do run, For the sake of Jehovah thy God, And for the Holy One of Israel, Because He hath beautified thee.

⁶Tsvakai Jehovha achawanikwa, danai kwaari achiri pedo.

⁶Seek ye Jehovah, while He is found, Call ye Him, while He is near,

⁷Akaipa ngaasiye nzira yake, nomunhu asakarurama mirangariro yake; ngaadzokere kuna Jehovha, iye achamunzwira tsitsi, nokuna Mwari wedu, nekuti achakangamwira zvikuru.

⁷Forsake doth the wicked his way, And the man of iniquity his thoughts, And he returneth to Jehovah, and He pitieth him, And unto our God for He multiplieth to pardon.

⁸nekuti ndangariro dzangu hadzizi ndangariro dzenyu, nenzira dzenyu hadzizi nzira dzangu ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.

⁸For not My thoughts [are] your thoughts, Nor your ways My ways, — an affirmation of Jehovah,

⁹nekuti denga sezvarakakwirira kupfuura nyika, saizvozvo nzira dzangu dzakakwirira kupfuura nzira dzenyu, nendangariro dzangu kupfuura ndangariro dzenyu.

⁹For high have the heavens been above the earth, So high have been My ways above your ways, And My thoughts above your thoughts.

¹⁰nekuti mvura sezvainoburuka, nemagada echando zvichibva kudenga, zvisingazodzokeriko, asi zvinodiridza nyika, zvichiiberekesa nokuitungisa maruva, ichipa mbewu, kumudzvari, nomudyi zvokudya,

¹⁰For, as come down doth the shower, And the snow from the heavens, And thither returneth not, But hath watered the earth, And hath caused it to yield, and to spring up, And hath given seed to the sower, and bread to the eater,

¹¹ndizvo zvichaita shoko rangu rinobuda mumuromo mangu; haringadzokeri kwandiri risina chinhu, asi richapedzisa zvandinoda, richibudirira pane zvandakaritumira.

¹¹So is My word that goeth out of My mouth, It turneth not back unto Me empty, But hath done that which I desired, And prosperously effected that [for] which I sent it.

¹²nekuti muchabuda nomufaro, nokutungamirirwa norugare; makomo nezvikomo zvichamukira mukuimba nomufaro pamberi penyu; miti yose yokudondo ichauchira.

¹²For with joy ye go forth, And with peace ye are brought in, The mountains and the hills Break forth before you [with] singing, And all trees of the field clap the hand.

¹³Panzvimbo yomunzwa pachamera mufiri*, panzvimbo yorukato pachamera mumirite*; zvichava kuna Jehovha zita, chive chiratidzo chisingaperi, chisingazogurwi.

¹³Instead of the thorn come up doth fir, Instead of the brier come up doth myrtle, And it hath been to Jehovah for a name, For a sign age-during — it is not cut off!
