Zvirevo zvaAguri
1 Zvirevo zvaAguri mwanakomana waJake, shoko rake:
Murume uyu akati kuna Itieri,
kuna Itieri nokuna Ukari:
2 “Ndini munhu asingazivi zvikuru kwazvo pakati pavanhu;
handina kunzwisisa kwomunhu.
3 Handina kudzidza uchenjeri,
uye handina ruzivo rwaiye Mutsvene.
4 Ndiani akakwidza kudenga uye akazoburuka?
Ndiani akabata mhepo mumaoko ake?
Ndiani akasungirira mvura munguo yake?
Ndiani akaisa migumo yose yenyika?
Zita rake ndiani, uye nezita romwanakomana wake?
Ndiudzei kana muchiriziva!
5 “Shoko rimwe nerimwe raMwari nderechokwadi;
iye chidzitiro kuna avo vanovanda maari.
6 Usawedzera kumashoko ake,
kana kuti achakutsiura uye agokuratidza kuti uri murevi wenhema.
7 “Zvinhu zviviri zvandinokumbira kwamuri, imi Jehovha,
musandirambira izvi ndisati ndafa:
8 Bvisai kusatendeka nenhema zvive kure neni;
musandipa urombo kana pfuma,
asi ndipei chete zvokudya zvemisi yose.
9 Zvichida, ndingava nezvakawanda kwazvo ndikasakukudzai,
uye ndikazoti, ‘Jehovha ndianiko?’
Kana kuti zvimwe ndingava murombo ndikaba,
uye ndikasaremekedza zita raMwari wangu.
10 “Usareva muranda kuna tenzi wake,
nokuti achakutuka, uye uchazviripira izvozvo.
11 “Kuna avo vanotuka madzibaba avo
uye vasingaropafadzi vanamai vavo;
12 vaya vanozviti vakachena pamaonero avo
asi vasina kusukwa tsvina yavo;
13 vaya vane meso anozvikudza nguva dzose,
vane matarisiro okushora;
14 vaya vane meno anenge minondo
nameno eshaya dzavo anenge mapanga
kuti vaparadze varombo panyika,
navanoshayiwa kubva pakati pavanhu.
15 “Chikwevaropa chine vanasikana vaviri.
Vanodanidzira vachiti, ‘Tipei! Tipei!’
“Kune zvinhu zvitatu zvisingatongoguti,
zvina zvisingamboti, ‘Zvaringana!’:
16 guva,
chizvaro chisingabereki,
pasi pasingaguti mvura,
nomoto usingamboti, ‘Zvaringana!’
17 “Ziso rinotuka baba,
rinoshora kuteerera mai,
richanongorwa namakunguo omumupata,
richadyiwa namagora.
18 “Pane zvinhu zvitatu zvinondishamisa kwazvo,
zvina zvandisinganzwisisi, zvinoti:
19 nzira yegondo riri mudenga,
nenzira yenyoka paruware,
nenzira yechikepe pagungwa,
uye nzira yomurume ane musikana.
20 “Iyi ndiyo nzira yomukadzi chifeve:
Anodya agopukuta muromo wake uye agoti,
‘Hapana chinhu chakaipa chandaita ini.’
21 “Nyika inodedera nokuda kwezvinhu zvitatu,
zvinhu zvina zvaisingadi kuona:
22 muranda anozova mambo,
benzi rine zvokudya zvizhinji,
23 mukadzi akaroorwa asi asingadiwi,
nomurandakadzi anotorera vatenzi vake murume.
24 “Panyika pane zvinhu zvina zvidiki,
asi zvakachenjera kwazvo:
25 Masvosve zvipuka zvine simba duku
asi anounganidza zvokudya zvawo muzhizha:
26 mbira zvipuka zvisina simba guru,
asi dzinoita imba yadzo mumatombo;
27 mhashu hadzina mambo,
asi dzinofamba pamwe chete mumapoka adzo;
28 dzvinyu rinogona kubatwa namaoko,
asi rinowanikwa mumizinda yamadzimambo.
29 “Kune zvinhu zvitatu zvino kufamba kunokudzwa kwazvo,
zvina zvino kufamba kunokudzwa kwazvo;
30 shumba, ine simba pakati pezvikara, isingadududzi pamberi pechikara chipi zvacho;
31 mafambiro okuzvikudza ejongwe,
nenhongo yembudzi,
uye namambo akakomberedzwa navarwi vake.
32 “Kana uchinge waita upenzi nokuzvirumbidza pachako,
kana kuti waronga zvakaipa,
bata muromo wako noruoko rwako!
33 Nokuti somukaka warozva unobudisa ruomba,
uye sokudzvinyirira mhino kunobudisa ropa,
nokudaro kumutsa hasha kunobudisa kukakavara.”
