2 Mobanse, kondwani mwakumananga ne mapensho apusana pusana,

3 pakwinga mucinshi kwambeti na lushomo lwenu lubula kuntenkana pacindi ncomulapitinga mumapensho, nimukabe bantu beshikucikonsha kukoma.
muchiziva kuti kuedzwa kwerutendo rwenyu kunobudisa kutsungirira;
4 Kulimbikila kwenu kwelela kupitilisha mpaka mukabe balulama cakumpwililila.
asi kutsungirira ngakuve nebasa rakapedzeredzwa, kuti muve vakapedzeredzwa nekukwana, musingatairi pachinhu.
5 Nsombi na muntu naumbi liya mano pakati penu welela kusenga kuli Lesa, kayi nakatambule, pakwinga Lesa ukute kupa camakasa abili kuli bonse mwakubula kulangaula milandu.
Uye kana umwe wenyu achishaiwa uchenjeri, ngaakumbire kuna Mwari, anopavhurira vese, uye asingatuki, zvino achadzipiwa.
6 Neco mwasenganga mwelela kushoma kwambeti nicikenshike kwakubula kutonshanya. Pakwinga uliyense latonshanyanga ulyeti mankape apamenshi ayo eshikwendeleshewa ne mukupwe.
Asi ngaakumbire murutendo, asiri asina chokwadi nechinhu; nokuti asina chokwadi wakaita sefungu regungwa rinosundwa nemhepo richidzungaidzwa.
7 Muntu wamushoboyu katayeyeti nakapewe ncalasengenga kuli Mwami Lesa.
Nokuti munhu uyu ngaarege kufunga kuti achagamuchira chinhu kuna Ishe.
8 Pakwinga lasenge ne myoyo ibili, kayi nkaikalikana mubintu byonse, neco nkela kutambulapo ciliconse kuli Lesa sobwe.
Murume ane moyo miviri anoshanduka-shanduka panzira dzake dzese.
9 Mwanse mukandu washoma, welela kukondwa na Lesa lamusumpulu.
Asi hama yakaderera ngaizvikudze pakukudzwa kwake;
10 Kayi mubile washoma welela kukondwa na Lesa lamuwishi. Pakwinga mubile nakapwe mbuli maluba amucisuwa.
nemufumi pakuderedzwa kwake; nokuti seruva reuswa achapfuura.
11 Lisuba lyapula likute kutenta mumena ne kulasha maluba panshi. Neco buyumi bwa mubile nibukapwe kacili pakati pa micito yakendi.
Nokuti zuva rinobuda pamwe nekupisa, ndokuomesa uswa, neruva rahwo rinowira pasi, nekunaka kwechimiro chahwo kwakaparara; saizvozvowo mufumi achabvuruvara panzira dzake.
12 Ukute colwe muntu ukute kali walimbikilowa elekeshewanga, pakwinga panyuma pakendi nakatambule buyumi, pakwinga ecilambo ico Lesa ncashomeshesha kupa bonse mbwasuni.
Wakaropafadzwa munhu anotsungirira pamuedzo; nokuti kana atendwa, achagamuchira korona yeupenyu, Ishe yaakavimbisa kune vanomuda.
13 Muntu elekeshewanga katambangeti Lesa elamwelekeshenga sobwe, Lesa nkela kwelekeshewa ne byaipa, kayi nkela kwelekesha muntu ne byaipa.
Kusava nemunhu anoti achiidzwa ati: Ndinoidzwa naMwari; nokuti Mwari haagoni kuedzwa nechakaipa, naiye amene haaidzi munhu.
14 Nomba muntu ukute kwelekeshewa nelunkumbwa lwakendi mwine, elukute kumubepa nekwimwikata nkola.
Asi umwe neumwe anoidzwa, kana achikwehwa nekuchiva kwake pachake, nekukwezwa.
15 Neco lunkumbwa lukute kusema bwipishi, nabo bwipishi bwakula mushimba bukute kusema lufu.
Ipapo kuchiva kana kwarema kunozvara chivi; nechivi kana chaperedzerwa, chinobereka rufu.
16 Kamutabepwa mobanse bame.
Musanyengerwa, hama dzangu dzinodikanwa.
17 Cipo ciliconse caina kayi caswepa cikute kufuma kwilu ku Bata bakute kwendelesha bintu byonse byakwilu. Nendi nkashinti mbuli mufunsha, kayi kumunika kwakendi nkakushinkililwa ne cintu ciliconse sobwe.
Chipo chese chakanaka nechipiwa chese chakaperedzerwa chinobva kumusoro, chichiburuka kubva kuna Baba vezviedza, navo pasina kupinduka, kana mumvuri wekushanduka.
18 Mwakuyanda kwakendi walatupa buyumi bwa linolino kupitila mu maswi ancinencine kwambeti, afwe tubeti bisepo byakutanguna kutoma palibyo mbyalalenga.
Nekuda kwake wakabereka isu neshoko rechokwadi, kuti isu tive sechibereko chekutanga chezvisikwa zvake.
19 Mobanse bame, kamwikatishani maswi awa, uliyense ashe mano kukunyufwa, kabani muntu utafwambana kwamba, kayi utakalala bwangu.
Naizvozvo, hama dzangu dzinodiwa, munhu umwe neumwe ngaave anokurumidza pakunzwa, anononoka pakutaura, anononoka pakutsamwa;
20 Pakwinga ukute kukalala bwangu nkakute kwinsa calulama ico Lesa ncalayandanga sobwe.
nokuti kutsamwa kwemunhu hakuiti kururama kwaMwari.
21 Ecebo cakendi kamushiyani cinga cakwinsa byasafwana, nekwipa moyo kulikonse. Mwakubomba moyo kamwatambula maswi a Lesa ngalabyala mu myoyo yenu, pakwinga endiwo elakumupulusha.
Naizvozvo bvisai zvinyangadzo zvese nekuwandisa kwekuipa, mugamuchire nemoyo munyoro shoko rakabatanidzwa pamuri, rinogona kuponesa mweya yenyu.
22 Kamutabowa bantu beshikunyufwa maswi a Lesa, nsombi kamubani beshi kwinsa ncalambanga maswi.
Asi ivai vaiti veshoko, uye kwete vanzwi chete, muchizvinyengera pachenyu.
23 Pakwinga muntu lanyumfungowa maswi, nsombi kabula kwinsa ncalanyumfunga, welana ne muntu lalibononga mucilola.
Nokuti kana umwe ari munzwi weshoko uye asiri muiti, iye wakafanana nemunhu anoona chiso chake chechisikirwo muchionioni;
24 Acileka kulanga mucilola popelapo ukute kuluba ncabonekanga.
nokuti anozviona pachake, ndokuenda, ndokukanganwa pakarepo kuti wanga akadini.
25 Milawo ya Lesa yaswepa, kayi ikute kupa muntu kusunguluka. Neco muntu ukute kwatambula nekwakonkela cena, ukute kunyumfwa ne kutalubako, nsombi uyo ukute kwinsa, Lesa nakamupe colwe pa ncito shakendi shonse.
Asi uyo anotarisisa mumurairo wakaperedzerwa werusununguko ndokurambirirapo, uyo asati ari munzwi anokanganwa asi muiti webasa, uyu acharopafadzwa pakuita kwake.
26 Na pali muntu layeyengeti washako mano kukukambilila Lesa, nomba katekata mulomo, kukambilila kwa muntuyo nikwabulyo, kayi ukute kulibepa.
Kana umwe pakati penyu achiti anotenda, kana asingadzori rurimi rwake, asi achinyengera moyo wake, chitendero cheuyu hachina maturo.
27 Kukambilila kwakubinga pamenso pa Lesa Bata nuku, kubamba cena bana bamashala, batukashi bamukalubingi mumupensho abo, kayi kulisunga cena, kutalisafwanya mubintu byamucishi capanshi.
Chitendero chakachena chisina kusvibiswa pamberi paMwari naBaba ndechichi: Kufambira nherera nechirikadzi pakutambudzika kwavo, azvichengete asina gwapa kubva kunyika.
