1Zvino shoko raJehovha rakasvika kwandiri, richiti,
1 Rabbi sanno kaa ay do koyne ka ne:
2Mwanakomana womunhu, muti womuzambiringa unopfuura mimwe miti yose neiko, iro davi romuzambiringa riri pakati pemiti iri kudondo?
2 Boro izo, man no reyzin* bundu bisa tuuri cindey wane, reyzin kambe mo, man no a bisa saajo tuuri zugey ra wane?
3Danda ringatorwapo rokuita basa naro here? Kana vanhu vangatorapo mbambo yokuturikisa mudziyo upi noupi here?
3 I g'a bundu kaa zama i ma hay fo te d'a, wala? I g'a te sarfa hal i ma jinay fo kulu sarku a gaa, wala?
4Tarirai, unokandirwa mumoto dzive huni; moto wapedza miromo miviri yawo, napakati watsvawo, zvino uchabatsira pabasa here?
4 I g'a catu danji ra, danji ŋwaari no? Da danji n'a kambu hinka ŋwa, a bindo mo ma di, a gonda nafa goy kulu se koyne no?
5Tarirai, uchakanaka hauna kukwanira basa chose; ndoda zvino kana moto waupedza, kana watsva, haukwaniri basa!
5 A go, za waati kaŋ a go no nga sukutumo, a sinda nafa goy kulu se. Sanku fa sohõ kaŋ danji n'a ŋwa, a bi danji ra mo, a ga wasa goy kulu se no?
6Naizvozvo zvanzi naIshe Jehovha, Somuti womuzambiringa pakati pemiti iri kudondo, wandakaisa kumoto dzive huni, saizvozvo ndakaisa vagere Jerusaremu pakuparadzwa.
6 Rabbi, Koy Beero binde ne: Woodin sabbay se, sanda mate kaŋ cine reyzin bundu bara saajo tuurey ra, haŋ kaŋ ay nooyandi danji se no, zama a m'a ŋwa, yaadin cine no ay na Urusalima gorokoy nooyandi.
7Ndichavarinzira chiso changu ndivaitire zvakaipa; vakabuda pamoto, asi moto uchavapedza; zvino muchaziva kuti ndini Jehovha, kana ndichivarinzira chiso changu ndivaitire zvakaipa.
7 Ay ga mo sinji i gaa da gaaba. Baa i fatta danji ra, kulu nda yaadin danji g'i ŋwa. Woodin gaa no araŋ ga bay kaŋ ay no ga ti Rabbi, waati kaŋ ay ga mo sinji i gaa da gaaba.
8Ndichaparadza nyika, nekuti vakandidarikira, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha.
8 Ay ga laabo mo ciya kurmu zama i na naanay feeri. Yaadin no Rabbi, Koy Beero ci.
