7 “Naizvozvo zvanzi naChangamire Ishe Jehovha, ‘Zvamakanga musingadzoreki+ kupfuura marudzi akakupoteredzai, hamuna kufamba mumirayiro yangu uye hamuna kuita zvandakatonga;+ asi hamuna here kuita maererano nezvakatongwa nemarudzi akakupoteredzai?+
8 naizvozvo zvanzi naChangamire Ishe Jehovha: “Tarira, haiwa iwe guta, ini+ ndichakurwisa, uye ndichaita zvandakatonga pakati pako marudzi ose achizviona.+

11 “‘Naizvozvo noupenyu hwangu,’ ndizvo zvinotaura Changamire Ishe Jehovha, ‘chokwadi nokuti wakasvibisa nzvimbo yangu tsvene nezvinhu zvako zvose zvinonyangadza+ uye zvinhu zvako zvose zvinosemesa,+ ini ndichakutapudzawo,+ ziso rangu harizonzwiri urombo+ uye ini handizonzwiwo tsitsi.+
12 Chikamu chako chimwe chete pazvikamu zvitatu—chichafa nedenda,+ uye chichapera nenzara chiri pakati pako.+ Chimwe chikamu pazvikamu zvitatu—chichaurayiwa nebakatwa chakakupoteredza. Chikamu chokupedzisira pazvikamu zvitatu ndichachiparadzira kumhepo yose,+ uye ndichavhomora bakatwa ndichivatevera.+
13 Hasha dzangu dzichapera+ uye ndichaderedza kuvatsamwira kwangu+ ndozvinyaradza;+ uye vachaziva kuti ini Jehovha, ndakataura ndichiomerera pakuti vazvipire zvakazara,+ pandinoita kuti kutsamwa kwangu kuperere pavari.
14 “‘Ndichaita kuti uve nzvimbo yakaparadzwa uye chinhu chinozvidzwa pakati pemarudzi akakupoteredza, vanhu vose vanopfuura vachizviona.+
15 Uchava chinhu chinozvidzwa+ uye chinotukwa,+ muenzaniso unonyevera+ uye chinhu chinotyisa marudzi akakupoteredza, pandinokuitira zvandakatonga ndakatsamwa, ndiine hasha uye ndichikutsiura nehasha.+ Ini Jehovha ndazvitaura.
16 “‘Pandinovatumira miseve yenzara inokuvadza,+ yokuparadza, miseve yandichatuma kuti ikuparadzei,+ ndichawedzera nzara pamuri uye ndichatyora tsvimbo dzenyu dzinoiswa zvingwa zvakaita serin’i.+
