18 Ine nhamo nyika yezvipembenene zvine mapapiro anorira

Iri munzvimbo yenzizi dzeItiopiya!+

 2 Inotuma nhume nemugungwa

Dziri muzvikepe zvenhokwe mumvura, ichiti:

“Endai, imi nhume dzinokurumidza,

Kurudzi rwevanhu varefu uye vane ganda rinotsvedzerera,

Kuvanhu vanotyiwa kwese kwese,+

Kurudzi rune simba uye runokunda,*

Rune nyika yakakukurwa nenzizi.”

 3 Imi mese vagari vemunyika nemi vagari vepasi,

Zvamuchaona zvichaita sechiratidzo chakasimudzwa* pamakomo,

Uye muchanzwa ruzha rwakaita sekurira kwehwamanda.

“Ndicharamba ndakanyarara ndotarisa nzvimbo* yangu isingachinji,

Sekupisa kunoita zuva parinenge rakacheka nyika,

Segore redova pakupisa kwenguva yekukohwa.

 5 Nekuti kukohwa kusati kwasvika,

Kutumbuka pakunopera uye ruva parinova zambiringa rava kuibva,

Nhungirwa dzichabviswa nemapanga ekuchekerera miti

Uye tumapazi tunotanda tuchadimburwa twobviswa.

 6 Zvese zvichasiyirwa shiri dzemumakomo dzinodya nyama

Nemhuka dzepanyika.

Shiri dzinodya nyama dzichapedzera zhizha pazviri,

Uye mhuka dzese dzepanyika dzichapedzera nguva yekukohwa pazviri.

 7 Panguva iyoyo pachaunzwa chipo kuna Jehovha wemauto,

Chichibva kuvanhu varefu, vane ganda rinotsvedzerera,

Vanhu vanotyiwa kwese kwese,

Rudzi rune simba uye runokunda,*

Rune nyika yakakukurwa nenzizi

Chichienda kunzvimbo ine zita raJehovha wemauto, Gomo reZiyoni.”+
