11 Zvino nyika yose yakaramba iine mutauro mumwe chete uye iine mashoko mamwe chete.
2 Pavaifamba vachienda nechokumabvazuva vakazowana bani munyika yeShinari,+ vakagara imomo.
3 Vakatanga kutaurirana vachiti: “Uyai! Ngatiite zvidhinha, tizviomese nokuzvipisa.” Naizvozvo zvidhinha zvakava matombo avo, asi bhitumini yakava dhaka ravo.+
4 Zvino vakati: “Uyai! Ngatizvivakire guta uyewo shongwe ine musoro unosvika kumatenga,+ uye ngatizviitirei zita rakakurumbira,+ kuti tirege kupararira panyika pose.”+
5 Jehovha akaburuka kuti aone guta racho norusvingo rwacho zvakanga zvavakwa nevanakomana vevanhu.+
6 Jehovha akazoti: “Tarira! Ivo vanhu vamwe, vose vane mutauro mumwe chete,+ uye izvi ndizvo zvavanotanga kuita. Chokwadi, zvino hapana chavangafunga kuita chavachatadza.+
7 Uya zvino! Ngatiburuke+ tinovhiringidza+ mutauro wavo ikoko kuti varege kunzwanana mitauro yavo.”+
8 Naizvozvo Jehovha akavaparadzira panyika pose vachibva ipapo,+ uye zvishoma nezvishoma vakarega kuvaka guta racho.+
9 Ndokusaka rakatumidzwa kuti Bhabheri,+ nokuti Jehovha akanga avhiringidza mutauro wenyika yose ipapo, uye Jehovha akanga avaparadzira+ panyika pose vachibva ipapo.
