30 “Zvino iti kuimba yaIsraeri, ‘Zvanzi naChangamire Ishe Jehovha: “Mava kuzvisvibisa sezvakaitwa nemadzitateguru enyu here nekutevera kwamuri kuita zvidhori zvavo zvinosemesa kuti muite unzenza hwekunamata nazvo?+ 31 Uye nanhasi muchiri kungoramba muchizvisvibisa here, muchipa zvibayiro kuzvidhori zvenyu zvese zvinosemesa, muchiita kuti vanakomana venyu vapfuure nemumoto?+ Munofunga kuti ndingakupindurai here nezvamuri kuita izvozvo, imi imba yaIsraeri?”’+
“‘Neupenyu hwangu,’ ndizvo zvinotaurwa naChangamire Ishe Jehovha, ‘Handisi kuzokupindurai.+ 32 Zvamunofunga mupfungwa dzenyu muchiti, “Ngatiitei semamwe marudzi, semhuri dzekune dzimwe nyika dzinonamata* matanda nematombo,” hazvisi kuzomboitika.’”+
33 “‘Neupenyu hwangu,’ ndizvo zvinotaurwa naChangamire Ishe Jehovha, ‘ndichava mambo wenyu ndichikutongai neruoko rune simba uye rwakatambanudzwa, ndakakutsamwirai zvikuru.+ 34 Ndichakubvisai pakati pemarudzi, ndokuunganidzai kubva kunyika dzamakanga mapararira kwadziri ndichishandisa ruoko rune simba uye rwakatambanudzwa, ndakatsamwa zvikuru.+ 35 Ndichakuendesai murenje remarudzi, ndokutongai imomo takatarisana.+
36 “‘Ndichakutongai sekutonga kwandakaita madzitateguru enyu murenje renyika yeIjipiti,’ ndizvo zvinotaurwa naChangamire Ishe Jehovha. 37 ‘Ndichaita kuti mupfuure nepasi petsvimbo yemufudzi,+ ndoita kuti muve pasi pesungano yacho. 38 Asi ndichabvisa vapanduki vari pakati penyu nevaya vanonditadzira.+ Nekuti ndichavabudisa munyika isiri yavo yavari kugara, asi havazopindi munyika yeIsraeri;+ uye muchaziva kuti ndini Jehovha.’
39 “Asi kana muri imi imba yaIsraeri, zvanzi naChangamire Ishe Jehovha: ‘Mumwe nemumwe wenyu ngaaende kunoshumira zvidhori zvake zvinosemesa.+ Asi kana maita izvozvo, ndichakurambai zvoita kuti musasvibisazve zita rangu dzvene nezvibayiro zvenyu nezvidhori zvenyu zvinosemesa.’+
40 “‘Nekuti mugomo rangu dzvene, gomo refu reIsraeri,’+ ndizvo zvinotaurwa naChangamire Ishe Jehovha, ‘ndimo mandichashumirwa nevanhu veimba yese yaIsraeri, vese zvavo vari munyika yacho.+ Ndichakufarirai uye ndichada kuti mundipe zvipo zvenyu imomo nemipiro yenyu yakanakisisa, zvinhu zvenyu zvese zvitsvene.+ 41 Kunhuhwirira kwemipiro yacho kuchaita kuti ndikufarirei panguva yandichakubvisai pakati pemarudzi, ndokuunganidzai kubva kunyika dzamakanga maparadzirwa;+ uye ndichatsveneswa pakati penyu, mamwe marudzi ese akatarisa.’+
42 “‘Muchaziva kuti ndini Jehovha,+ pandichakuendesai kunyika yeIsraeri,+ nyika yandakapika kuti ndichapa madzitateguru enyu. 43 Mava ikoko, muchayeuka maitiro enyu nemabasa enyu ese amakazvisvibisa nawo,+ uye muchazvisema* nemhaka yezvakaipa zvamakaita.+ 44 Muchabva maziva kuti ndini Jehovha pandichakuitirai zvakanaka ndichifunga nezvezita rangu,+ kwete nzira dzenyu dzakaipa kana mabasa enyu akaora, imi imba yaIsraeri,’ ndizvo zvinotaurwa naChangamire Ishe Jehovha.”
45 Shoko raJehovha rakauyazve kwandiri, richiti: 46 “Mwanakomana wemunhu, tarisa kumaodzanyemba uzivise shoko ikoko, uye profita kusango renyika yekumaodzanyemba. 47 Iti kusango rekumaodzanyemba, ‘Inzwa shoko raJehovha.
