Ɀireʋo 2 - Original Shona Union Bible 1949 (Doke Orthography)（SUB1949）

Kunaka kwoʋucenjeri.

1Mŋanakomana waŋgu, kana ukagamucira mashoko aŋgu,

Nokuceŋgeta mirairo yaŋgu kwauri;

2Kuti urerekere nzeʋe yako iterere ʋucenjeri,

Nokurwadza mŋoyo wako, kuti unzwisise;

3Kana ukacemera kunzwisisa,

Ukaɗanidzira nenzwi rako kuti uwane njere;

4Ɀirokwaɀo kana ukaʋutȿaka sesirveri,

Ukaʋutȿakisisa sefuma yakaʋanzwa;

5Ipapo ucanzwisisa kutya Jehova,

Nokuwana ziʋo yaMŋari.

6Nokuti Jehova ndiye unopa ʋucenjeri;

Mumuromo make munoɓuɗa ziʋo nenjere,

7Unoʋigira ʋakarurama ʋucenjeri caibgo;

Ndiye nhoʋo yaʋanofamba muɀokwaɗi;

8Nokuti unorinda makwara okururamisa,

Nokuceŋgeta nzira yaʋatȿene ʋake.

9Ipapo ucanzwisisa kururama nokururamisa,

Nokutendeka, idzo nzira dzose dzakanaka.

10Nokuti ʋucenjeri ʋucapinda mumŋoyo mako,

Ziʋo icafadza mŋeya wako;

11Kuŋgwara kucakurindira,

Njere dzicakuceŋgeta;

12Ɀikurwire panzira yeɀakaipa,

Napaʋanhu ʋanotaura ɀisakarurama;

13Ʋanorasha makwara okururama,

Kuti ʋafambe nenzira dzerima;

14Ʋanofarira kuita ɀakaipa,

Ʋanofadzwa nokunyeŋgera kweɀakaipa.

15Ʋanenzira dzakaminama,

Ʋanotsauka pamakwara aʋo;

16Kuti ɀikurwire kumukadzi wokumŋe,

Kumukadzi mutorwa, unoɓata kumeso namashoko ake.

17Iye, unorasha shamŋari yoʋumhandara bgake,

Acikaŋganwa suŋgano yaMŋari wake.

18Nokuti imba yake inonyura kurufu,

Nenzira dzake kuʋakafa;

19Hakuna‐unopinda kwaari unozodzoka ɀe;

Haʋaȿiki panzira dzoʋupenyu;

20Kuti ufambe nenzira yaʋakanaka,

Uceŋgete makwara aʋakarurama.

21Nokuti ʋakarurama ʋacagara panyika,

Ʋakakwana ʋacarambira’po.

22Asi ʋakaipa ʋacaparadzwa panyika;

Ʋanoita nokunyeŋgedzera ʋacadzurwa’po.
