Tsiku limenelo aliyense wa inu adzati: “Ndikukuyamikani, Inu Yehova; chifukwa ngakhale munandipsera mtima, mkwiyo wanu wachoka, ndipo mwanditonthoza.
2 Zvirokwazvo Mwari ndiye ruponeso rwangu; ndichavimba naye uye handingatyi. Jehovha, Jehovha ndiye simba rangu nerwiyo rwangu; ava ruponeso rwangu.”
