¹Ipapo Jobho akapfuura nokutaura kwake, akati,

¹¶ Na i korero tonu ano a Hopa i tana pepeha; i mea,

²NaMwari mupenyu, iye akanditorera kururama kwangu; nowaMasimbaose akatambudza mweya wangu;

²E ora ana te Atua, nana nei i whakakahore toku tika; te Kaha Rawa, nana nei i whakakawa toku wairua;

³(Nokuti upenyu hwangu huchiri mandiri chose, Nomweya waMwari uchiri mumhino dzangu;)

³Kei te toitu tonu hoki toku ora i roto i ahau, a kei roto i oku pongaponga te wairua o te Atua;

⁴Zvirokwazvo miromo yangu haingatauri zvisakarurama, Uye rurimi rwangu harungarevi zvinonyengera.

⁴He pono, e kore oku ngutu e korero kino, e kore te hianga e puaki i toku arero.

⁵Mwari ngaandidzivise ndirege kukururamisirai; Kusvikira parufu rwangu handingarashi kusanyengera kwangu.

⁵Aue kia whakatikaia ta koutou e ahau! E kore e whakarerea e ahau toku ngakau tapatahi, a mate noa.

⁶Ndinobatisa kururama kwangu, handingakuregi; moyo wangu haungandipi mhaka ndichiri mupenyu.

⁶Ka mau taku pupuri ki toku tika, e kore e tukua atu e ahau: e kore toku ngakau e whakahe ki ahau i ahau ano e ora nei.

⁷Muvengi wangu ngaaite sewakaipa. Uye anondimukira ngaaite seasina kururama.

⁷¶ Ko toku hoariri, kia rite ia ki te tangata kino; ko te tangata e whakatika mai ana ki ahau, kia rite ia ki te tangata hara.

⁸nekuti asingadi Mwari ane tariro yeiko, kunyange azviwanira fuma, Kana atorerwa mweya wake naMwari here?

⁸He aha oti ta te whakaponokore e tumanako ai, ahakoa whiwhi ia i te rawa, ki te mea ka tangohia atu tona wairua e te Atua?

⁹Ko Mwari achanzwa kuchema kwake, Kana achiwirwa nenjodzi here?

⁹E rongo ranei te Atua ki tana tangi ina pa te he ki a ia?

¹⁰Ko iye achafarira waMasimbaose, Nokudana kuna Mwari nguva dzose here?

¹⁰E ahuareka ranei ia ki te Kaha Rawa, e karanga ranei ki te Atua i nga wa katoa?

¹¹Ini ndichakudzidzisai zvoruoko rwaMwari; Izvo zvina waMasimbaose handingazvivanzi.

¹¹¶ Ka whakaakona koutou e ahau ki te ringa o te Atua; e kore e huna e ahau nga mea e takoto mai nei i te Kaha Rawa.

¹²Tarirai imwi mose makazviona henyu; Zvino makagova vanhu vasina maturo chose neiko?

¹²Nana, kua kite koutou katoa; a na te aha koutou i wairangi rawa ai?

¹³Ndiwo mugove unopiwa munhu akaipa naMwari, Nemhaka yavamanikidzi, yavanopiwa nowaMasimbaose.

¹³Ko ta te Atua wahi tenei ma te tangata kino, ko te mea e whakarerea iho ma nga kaitukino, ko ta te Kaha Rawa e riro i a ratou.

¹⁴Kana vana vake vachiwanda, vourawa nomunondo; Vana vake havangaguti zvokudya.

¹⁴Ki te mea ka tokomaha ana tamariki, hei mea ma te hoari; e kore ano hoki ona uri e makona i te taro.

¹⁵Vana vake, vakasara, vachavigwa vafa, Chirikadzi dzake hadzingachemi.

¹⁵Ko ona morehu ka tanumia ki te mate; e kore ano hoki ana pouaru e tangi.

¹⁶Kunyange akaunganidza sirivha ikaita seguruva, Nokugadzira zvokufuka zvikaita sevhu;

¹⁶Ahakoa amene ia i te hiriwa ano he puehu, a pae tonu te kakahu mona ano he paru;

¹⁷Angazvigadzira hake iye, asi akarurama ndiye achazvifuka; Asine mhosva ndiye achagovera sirivha.

¹⁷E pae ano i a ia, otiia ka kakahuria e te tangata tika, ka wehewehea hoki te hiriwa e te harakore.

¹⁸Anovaka imba yake sechifusi, Sechirindo chinoitwa nomurindi.

¹⁸Ka rite tana hanga i tona whare ki ta te purehurehu; tona rite kei te whare tihokahoka e hanga ana e te kaitiaki.

¹⁹Anovata pasi akafuma, asi haapamhidzizve; Anosvinudza meso ake, asi haachipo.

¹⁹Ka takoto ia, he tangata taonga, otiia e kore e kohia ki te urupa; ko te tirohanga ake a ona kanohi, na kua kahore noa iho ia.

²⁰Zvinotyisa zvinomubata semvura zhinji; dutu remhepo rinomubvuta usiku.

²⁰Rite tonu ki te wai nga whakawehi e mau ai ia; tahaetia ana ia e te paroro i te po.

²¹Mhepo inobva mabvazuva inomutora ndokuenda hake; Inomutsvaira panzvimbo yake.

²¹Ka kahakina atu ia e te marangai, a riro ana ia; ka aia atu ano ia i tona wahi.

²²Mwari achamuposha, asingamunzwiri tsitsi, Uchatiza zvokutiza paruoko rwake.

²²Ka aki mai hoki te Atua ki a ia, e kore ano ia e tohungia; mea noa ia kia rere mai i roto i tona ringa.

²³Vanhu vacharova maoko pamusoro pake, Vachamuridzira muridzo abve panzvimbo yake.

²³Ka papaki te tangata i o ratou ringa ki a ia, a ka whakahi, ka a atu i a ia i tona wahi.
