¹Ipapo Bhiridhadhi muShuhi akapindura akati,

²Ucharamba uchitaura mashoko awa kusvikira rinhiko?

³Ko Mwari angakanganisa pakutonga here WaMasimbaose angakanganisa zvakarurama here?

⁴Kana vana vako vakanga vamutadzira iye, Akavaisa pakudarika kwavo;

⁵Kana iwe ukashingaira kutsvaka Mwari, Ukakumbira kuna waMasimbaose;

⁶Kana ukava akanaka, akaruruma; Iye angadai aimuka zvino nokuda kwako, Akafambisa zvakanaka imba yako yakarurama.

⁷Kunyange kutanga kwako kwaiva kuduku, Asi kuguma kwako kwaiva kukuru kwazvo.

⁸nekuti chidobvunza hako rudzi rwakare, Ucherekedze zvakanzverwa namadzibaba avo.

⁹(Nokuti isu tiri vazuro hedu, hatizivi chinhu, nekuti mazuva edu panyika akafanana nemumvuri;)

¹⁰Ivo havangakudzidzisi here, nokukuudza, Nokureva mashoko anobva pamoyo yavo here?

¹¹Ko nhokwe ingamera pasine nhope here? Ko rutsanga rungamera pasine mvura here?

¹²Ruchiri runyoro, rusati rwatemwa, Runosvava mimwe miriwo ichigere.

¹³Ndizvo zvakaita nzira dzavose vanokangamwa Mwari; Uye tariro yomunhu asingadi Mwari ichapera;

¹⁴Chaakatarira chichaputsanyiwa, Chaakatenda chakafanana namambure edandemutande

¹⁵Uchasendamira paimba yake, asi haingamiri; Uchaibata, asi haingagari.

¹⁶Iye muti mutema pamushana, Matavi ake anotandavarira pamunda wake.

¹⁷Midzi yake yakapombera patsime, Unoona nzvimbo yorukangarabwe.

¹⁸Kana akaparadzwa panzvimbo yake, Ichamuramba, ichiti, Handina kukuona,

¹⁹Tarira, ndiwo mufaro wenzira yake; Paguruva panobuda vamwe.

²⁰Tarira, Mwari haangarashi munhu wakarurama, Haangabatsiri vanoita zvakaipa.

²¹Achazozadza hake muromo wako nokuseka, Nemiromo yako nokupururudza.

²²Vanokuvenga vachafukidza nokunyara; Uye tende ravakaipa haringazovipo.
