1 Awu, sengathi ungaqhekeza amazulu wehlele phansi ukuba izintaba zinyikinyeke phambi kwakho!
Haiwa, dai maibvarura matenga mukaburuka pasi, kuti makomo adedere pamberi penyu!
2 Njengalapho umlilo utshisa incwathi wenze amanzi abile, yehlela phansi ukuba wenze ibizo lakho lazakale ezitheni zakho, wenze lezizwe zithuthumele phambi kwakho.
Sezvinoita moto paunopisa tsotso uchiita kuti mvura ivire, burukai muzoita kuti zita renyu rizivikanwe kuvavengi venyu, uye muite kuti ndudzi dzidedere pamberi penyu!
3 Ngoba wathi usenza izinto ezesabekayo esasingazilindelanga, wehlela phansi, izintaba zathuthumela phambi kwakho.
Nokuti pamakaita zvinhu zvinotyisa zvatakanga tisina kutarisira, makaburuka pasi, makomo akabvunda pamberi penyu.
4 Kusukela endulo kakho owezwayo, akulandlebe eyabambisisayo, akulalihlo elabona omunye uNkulunkulu ngaphandle kwakho, osebenzela labo abathembe kuye.
Kubva panguva dzekare hakuna munhu akanzwa, hakuna nzeve yakanzwisisa, hakuna ziso rakaona mumwe Mwari kunze kwenyu, anobatsira avo vanomumirira.
5 Uyeza ukuba usize labo abenza ukulunga ngokuthaba, abazikhumbulayo izindlela zakho. Kodwa lapho saqhubeka sisona kubo wathukuthela. Pho singasindiswa kanjani na?
Munouya kuzobatsira avo vanofarira kuita zvakarurama, vanorangarira nzira dzenyu. Asi patakaramba tichivatadzira, imi makatsamwa. Zvino tingaponeswa seiko?
6 Sonke sesaba njengomuntu ongcolileyo, lemisebenzi yethu yokulunga yonke injengenjobo ezingcolileyo, sonke siyabuna njengehlamvu, lanjengomoya izono zethu zisiphephulela khatshana.
Isu tose tafanana nousina kuchena, uye mabasa edu ose okururama afanana namamvemve enguo dzine tsvina; isu tose tinooma seshizha, semhepo zvivi zvedu zvinotitsvairira kure.
7 Kakho okhuleka ebizweni lakho lozamayo ukubambelela kuwe, ngoba ubuso bakho ubufihlile kithi wasenza sacikizeka ngenxa yezono zethu.
Hakuna anodana kuzita renyu kana anoshingairira kuti akubatei; nokuti makativanzira chiso chenyu mukaita kuti tiperezeke nokuda kwezvivi zvedu.
8 Ikanti wena Thixo unguBaba wethu. Thina silibumba, wena ungumbumbi; sonke singumsebenzi wezandla zakho.
Haiwa, Jehovha, kunyange zvakadaro muri Baba vedu. Isu tiri ivhu, imi muri muumbi; isu tose tiri basa ramaoko enyu.
9 Ungathukutheli wedlulise, awu Thixo; izono zethu ungazikhumbuli kokuphela. Awu, ake usikhangele, siyakhuleka, ngoba sonke singabantu bakho.
Regai kutsamwa zvikuru imi Jehovha; regai kurangarira zvivi zvedu nokusingaperi. Haiwa Jehovha, ringirai kwatiri, tinokumbira, nokuti tose tiri vanhu venyu.
10 Amadolobho akho angcwele aseyinkangala; leZiyoni isiyinkangala, iJerusalema isiyincithakalo.
Maguta enyu matsvene ava renje; kunyange Zioni irenje, Jerusarema rava dongo.
11 Ithempeli lethu elingcwele njalo elikhazimulayo lapho okhokho ababekudumisela khona, litshiswe ngomlilo, njalo konke okwakuligugu kithi sekungamanxiwa.
Temberi yedu tsvene inobwinya, umo madzibaba edu akakurumbidzai, yakapiswa nomoto, uye nzvimbo dzose dzataikoshesa dzaparara.
12 Emva kwakho konke lokhu Thixo, uzazithinta na? Uzazithulela, usijezise ngokudlulisileyo na?
Haiwa Jehovha, mushure maizvozvi mungazvidzorawo here? Mucharamba munyerere, uye mugotiranga zvinopfuura mwero here?
