1 Kumutungamiri wokuimba. Rwiyo rweMasikiri rwaDhavhidhi. Dhoegi muEdhomu paakanga aenda kuna Sauro akamuudza kuti: “Dhavhidhi aenda kumba kwaAhimereki.” Ko, unozvikudzirei pane zvakaipa, iwe murume wesimba? Unozvikudzirei zuva rose, iyewe unonyadzisa pamberi paMwari?

2 Rurimi rwako runofarira zvokuparadza; rwakaita sechisvo chakarodzwa, iyewe unogara uchingonyengera.

3 Unoda zvakaipa pachinzvimbo chezvakanaka, kureva nhema pachinzvimbo chokutaura chokwadi. Sera

4 Unoda shoko rimwe nerimwe rinoparadza, iwe rurimi runonyengera!

5 Zvirokwazvo Mwari achakuburutsira kukuparadzwa kusingaperi: Achakubvuta agokubvisa mutende rako; achakudzura kubva munyika yavapenyu. Sera

6 Vakarurama vachazviona uye vachatya; vachamuseka vachiti,

7 “Houno zvino munhu asina kuita Mwari nhare yake, asi aivimba nepfuma yake zhinji, uye aisimba nokuparadza vamwe!”

8 Asi ini ndakaita somuti womuorivhi unokura zvakanaka mumba maMwari; ndinovimba norudo rusingaperi rwaMwari, nokusingaperi-peri.

9 Ndichakurumbidzai, nokusingaperi nokuda kwezvamakaita; ndichavimba nezita renyu, nokuti zita renyu rakanaka. Ndichakurumbidzai pamberi pavatsvene venyu.
