Kunaka kwouchenjeri

1Mwanakomana wangu, kana ukagamuchira mashoko angu,

Nokuchengeta mirairo yangu kwauri;

2Kuti urerekere nzeve yako iteerere uchenjeri,

Nokurwadza mwoyo wako, kuti unzwisise;

3Kana ukachemera kunzwisisa,

Ukadanidzira nezwi rako kuti uwane njere;

4Zvirokwazvo kana ukahutsvaka sesirivha,

Ukahutsvakisisa sepfuma yakavanzwa;

5Ipapo uchanzwisisa kutya Jehovha,

Nokuwana zivo yaMwari.

6Nokuti Jehovha ndiye anopa uchenjeri;

Mumuromo make munobuda zivo nenjere,

7Unovigira vakarurama uchenjeri chaihwo;

Ndiye nhoo yavanofamba muzvokwadi;

8Nokuti anorinda makwara okururamisa,

Nokuchengeta nzira yavatsvene vake.

9Ipapo uchanzwisisa kururama noruenzaniso,

Nokutendeka, idzo nzira dzose dzakanaka.

10Nokuti uchenjeri huchapinda mumwoyo mako,

Zivo ichafadza mweya wako;

11Kungwara kuchakurindira,

Njere dzichakuchengeta;

12Zvikurwire panzira yezvakaipa,

Napavanhu vanotaura zvisakarurama;

13Vanorasha makwara okururama,

Kuti vafambe nenzira dzerima;

14Vanofarira kuita zvakaipa,

Vanofadzwa nokunyengera kwezvakaipa.

15Vane nzira dzakaminama,

Vanotsauka pamakwara avo;

16Kuti zvikurwire kumukadzi wokumwe,

Kumukadzi mutorwa, anobata kumeso namashoko ake.

17Iye, anorasha shamwari yohumhandara hwake,

Achikanganwa sungano yaMwari wake.

18Nokuti imba yake inonyura kurufu,

Nenzira dzake kuvakafa;

19Hakuna anopinda kwaari anozodzokazve;

Havasviki panzira dzoupenyu;

20Kuti ufambe nenzira yavakanaka,

Uchengete makwara avakarurama.

21Nokuti vakarurama vachagara panyika,

Vakakwana vachafambirapo.

22Asi vakaipa vachaparadzwa panyika;

Vanoita nokunyengedzera vachadzurwapo.
