34 Zvino Erihu akaenderera mberi achipindura kuti:
2 “Teererai mashoko angu, imi vakachenjera;Nditeererei, imi vanoziva.
3 Nokuti nzeve inoedza mashoko,+Sokuravira kunoita rurimi pakudya.+
4 Ngatizvisarudzirei kutonga kwakarurama;Tose ngatizivei kuti zvakanaka ndezvipi.
5 Nokuti Jobho ati, ‘Ndakarurama,+Asi Mwari akatsaudzira kutongwa kwangu kwakarurama.+
6 Ndinoreva nhema pamusoro pekodzero yangu yokuti nditongwe zvakarurama here?Ronda rangu rinorwadza harirapiki kunyange zvazvo ndisina kudarika.’+
7 Ndoupi murume akafanana naJobho,+Anonwa kunyombwa semvura?+
8 Ava kuda kushamwaridzana nevanoita zvinhu zvinokuvadzaNokufamba nevanhu vakaipa.+
9 Nokuti ati, ‘Murume akagwinya haabatsirwi+Nokufarira kwake Mwari.’
10 Naizvozvo, nditeererei imi varume vane mwoyo ine njere.+Mwari wechokwadi haamboiti zvakaipa,+Uye Wemasimbaose haamboiti zvisina kururama!+
11 Nokuti achapa munhu wepanyika mubayiro+ unoenderana nemaitiro ake,Uye achaita kuti munhu awane zvinoenderana negwara rake.
12 Chokwadi, Mwari haaiti zvakaipa,+Uye Wemasimbaose haatsaudziri pakutonga.+
13 Ndiani akamupa nyika,Uye ndiani akamupa nyika inobereka, yose zvayo?
14 Kana akaisa mwoyo wake pane mumwe munhu,Kana akadzosa kwaari simba roupenyu nemhepo yokufema zvomunhu iyeye,+
15 Zvipenyu zvose zvenyama zvichaparara pamwe chete,Uye munhu wepanyika achadzokera kuguruva chaiko.+
16 Naizvozvo kana uchinzwisisa, inzwa izvi;Teerera mashoko angu.
17 Chokwadi chero munhu upi zvake anovenga kururamisira angatonga here,+Uye kana munhu ane simba akarurama, ungamuti akaipa here?+
18 Munhu angati here kuna mambo, ‘Hamuna zvamunobatsira’?Angati here kune vanokudzwa, ‘Makaipa’?+
19 Kune Mumwe asingasaruri machindaUye asina hanya nomunhu anokudzwa kupfuura zvaanoita nomunhu akaderera,+Nokuti vose zvavo ibasa remaoko ake.+
20 Vanofa nenguva pfupi,+ kunyange pakati pousiku;+Vanhu vanogwagwadza vopfuura,Uye vane simba vanobviswa zvisingaitwi noruoko.+
21 Nokuti maziso ake ari panzira dzomunhu,+Uye anoona nhanho dzake dzose.
22 Hakuna rima kana zarima chero ripi zvaroRokuti vaya vanoita zvinhu zvinokuvadza vavande imomo.+
23 Nokuti haatari nguva yokuti chero munhu upi zvakeAende pamberi paMwari kunotongwa.
24 Anoputsa vane simba+ asingamboongorori,Uye anogadza vamwe panzvimbo pavo.+
25 Naizvozvo anoziva mabasa avo,+Anovaparadza usiku, ivo vopwanyika.+
26 Anovarova sevanhu vakaipaVari panzvimbo inoonekwa nevanhu vose;+
27 Nokuti vakarega kumutevera,+Uye havana kuva nehanya nenzira dzake dzose,+
28 Kuti vaite kuti kuchema kwomunhu akaderera kusvike kwaari;Naizvozvo anonzwa kuchema kwevanotambudzika.+
29 Paanoita kuti pave norunyararo, ndiani angamupa mhosva?Paanovanza chiso chake,+ ndiani angamuona,Kunyange akazviitira rudzi+ kana munhu, icho zvachiri chinhu chakafanana?
30 Kuti munhu anotsauka arege kutonga,+Uye kuti parege kuva nemisungo+ yevanhu.
31 Nokuti pane munhu here angati kuna Mwari,‘Ndatambura, kunyange zvazvo ndisingaiti zvakaipa;+
32 Kunyange zvazvo pasina chandinoona, imi ndirayiridzei;Kana paine chinhu chisina kururama chandakaita,Handizochiitizve’?+
33 Iye achazvitsiva sezvaunoda here nokuti unoramba kutongwa,Nokuti ndiwe unosarudza, kwete ini?Taura zvaunonyatsoziva.
34 Varume vane mwoyo ine njere+ vachati kwandiri—Kunyange murume akachenjera anonditeerera achati,
35 ‘Jobho anotaura asina zivo,+Mashoko ake ndeokushayiwa njere.’
36 Baba vangu, regai Jobho aedzwe kusvikira pokupedzisiraNokuda kwokupindura kwake ari pakati pevarume vanoita zvinhu zvinokuvadza.+
37 Nokuti anowedzera kumukira pamusoro pechivi chake;+Anoombera ari pakati pedu uye anowanza mashoko ake okurwisana naMwari wechokwadi!”+
