Kumutungamiriri weJedhutuni.+ Rwiyo rwaDhavhidhi.
39 Ndakati: “Ndicharinda nzira dzangu+Kuti ndirege kutadza norurimi rwangu.+Ndichaisa tomu kuti rive murindi womuromo wangu,+Chero bedzi munhu akaipa ari pamberi pangu.”+
2 Ndakava mbeveve nokunyarara;+Ndakaramba ndakanyarara pane zvakanaka,+Kurwadziwa kwangu kwakadziviswa.
3 Mwoyo wangu wakapisa mukati mangu;+Moto wakaramba uchibvira munguva yokugomera kwangu.Ndakataura norurimi rwangu:
4 “Haiwa Jehovha, itai kuti ndizive kuguma kwangu,+Nokuyerwa kwemazuva angu—kuti kwakadini,+Kuti ndizive kuti ndinokurumidza kupfuura zvakadini.+
5 Tarirai! Makaita kuti mazuva angu angova mashomanana;+Nguva youpenyu hwangu yakaita sepasina pamberi penyu.+Chokwadi munhu wose wepanyika, kunyange zvazvo achimira akasimba, haasi chinhu asi mhepo inofemwa.+ Sera.
6 Chokwadi munhu anofamba-famba somumvuri.+Chokwadi vanoita mheremhere pasina.+Mumwe anounganidza zvinhu uye haazivi kuti ndiani achazozvitora.+
7 Zvino ndakatarisirei kwamuri, haiwa Jehovha?Tariro yangu iri kwamuri.+
8 Ndinunurei pakudarika kwangu kwose.+Musaita kuti ndive chinhu chinozvidzwa nebenzi.+
9 Ndakaramba ndakanyarara;+ ndakatadza kuvhura muromo wangu,+Nokuti imi makazviita.+
10 Bvisai dambudziko renyu kwandiri.+Ndapera nokuda kwokurwisa kworuoko rwenyu.+
11 Makaruramisa munhu nokutsiura kukanganisa,+Munoparadza zvinhu zvake zvakanaka sezvinoita chitemamachira.+Chokwadi munhu wose wepanyika imhepo inofemwa.+ Sera.
12 Inzwai munyengetero wangu, haiwa Jehovha,Teererai kuchemera kwangu kubatsirwa.+Musaramba makanyarara muchiona misodzi yangu.+Nokuti ndinongova hangu mutorwa anemi,+Anobva kune imwe nyika sezvakanga zvakaita madzitateguru angu ose.+
13 Regai kunditarira, kuti ndifare+Ndisati ndaenda, ndikasazovapo.”+
