Jobho
34 Saka Erihu akaenderera mberi nemhinduro yake achiti:
2 “Teererai mashoko angu, imi vakachenjera;
Ndinzwei, imi vanoziva zvakawanda.
3 Nekuti nzeve inoedza mashoko,
Sekungoravidza kunoita rurimi zvekudya.
4 Ngationgororei tega kuti tione kuti zvakarurama ndezvipi;
Ngatisarudzei tega kuti tizive kuti zvakanaka ndezvipi.
6 Ndingareva nhema nezvemutongo wandinofanira kupiwa here?
Ronda rangu harirapiki, kunyange zvazvo ndisina chandatadza.’+
7 Ndiani mumwe munhu akafanana naJobho,
Anonwa kunyombwa semvura?
10 Saka nditeererei, imi varume vanonzwisisa:
11 Nekuti achapa munhu mubayiro maererano nezvaanoita+
Uye achaita kuti awane zvinoenderana nenzira dzake.
Uye vanhu vangadzokera kuguruva.+
16 Saka kana uchinzwisisa, teerera izvi;
Nyatsoteerera zvandiri kutaura.
17 Munhu anovenga kutonga zvakarurama angatungamirira here,
Kana kuti ungashora here munhu ane simba akarurama?
18 Ungati here kuna mambo, ‘Hamuna zvamunobatsira,’
Kana kuti kuvakuru vakuru, ‘Muri vanhu vakaipa’?+
19 Ariko mumwe asingasaruri machinda
Uye asingafariri vapfumi kupfuura varombo,*+
Nekuti vese zvavo ibasa remaoko ake.+
20 Vanogona kungoerekana vafa+ pakati peusiku;+
Vanogwinha-gwinha zvine simba vopfuura;
Kunyange vane simba vanobviswa, asi kwete nemaoko emunhu.+
23 Nekuti Mwari haana munhu waakasarudzira nguva
Yekuti azomumisa pamberi pake kuti amutonge.
26 Anovarovera uipi hwavo,
Panzvimbo inoonekwa nevanhu vese,+
27 Nekuti vakasiya kumutevera+
Uye havana basa nenzira dzake dzese;+
28 Vanoita kuti varombo vacheme kwaari,
Zvekuti anonzwa kuchema kwevasina mubatsiri.+
29 Kana Mwari akaramba akanyarara, ndiani angamupa mhosva?
Kana akavanza chiso chake, ndiani angamuona?
Kana akazviitira imwe nyika kana kuti munhu mumwe chete, magumo acho akangofanana.
31 Nekuti pane munhu here angati kuna Mwari,
‘Ndarangwa, kunyange zvazvo ndisina chandatadza;+
32 Ndiratidzei pandisiri kuona;
Kana paine chandatadza, handichachiitazve’?
33 Anofanira kukupa mubayiro sezvaunoda here, asi iwe uchiramba mutongo wake?
Ndiwe unofanira kusarudza, kwete ini.
Saka ndiudze zvaunonyatsoziva.
34 Varume vanonzwisisa vachati kwandiri,
Murume wese akachenjera anondinzwa achati:
