1 Mutongo weNinivhi:+ Bhuku rezvakaratidzwa Nahumi* wekuErikoshi:
2 Jehovha ndiMwari anoda kuzvipira kwakazara+ uye anotsiva;
Jehovha anotsiva uye akagadzirira kuratidza hasha dzake.+
Jehovha anotsiva mhandu dzake,
Uye anochengeta hasha dzake kuti azodziratidza pavavengi vake.
3 Jehovha anononoka kutsamwa+ uye ane simba guru,+
Asi Jehovha haazomboregi kuranga vanofanira kurangwa.+
Anofamba ari mumhepo inoparadza uye mudutu,
Uye makore ndiwo guruva rinopfumburwa netsoka dzake.+
KuBhashani nekuKameri kuri kuoma,+
Uye maruva eRebhanoni ari kuoma.
Chiso chake chichaita kuti pasi padengenyeke,
Pamwe chete nenyika yacho nevanhu vese vanogara mairi.+
6 Ndiani angamira pamberi pake kana atsamwa?+
Uye ndiani angaramba akamira paanoratidza hasha dzake huru?+
Hasha dzake dzichadururwa semoto,
Uye achaita kuti matombo apwanyike.
7 Jehovha akanaka,+ inhare* pazuva rekutambudzika.+
Anofunga* vaya vanopotera kwaari.+
9 Pane here chamungaronga kuti murwisane naJehovha?
Iye ari kuparadza zvese.
Achaparadza zvekuti haazodzokorodzi.+
10 Vakaita seminzwa yakarukana,
Uye vakaita sevanhu vakadhakwa nedoro;*
Asi vachaparadzwa semashanga akaoma.
11 Mauri muchabuda munhu anorongera Jehovha zvakaipa,
Achipa zano risingabatsiri.
12 Zvanzi naJehovha:
“Kunyange zvazvo vakanga vaine simba uye vari vazhinji,
Vachatemwa vachiwira pasi uye vachafa.*
Ndakakuranga* asi handizokurangi zvakare.
Ndichaparadza mifananidzo yakavezwa nemifananidzo yesimbi* iri muimba* yavanamwari vako.
Ndichakugadzirira guva, nekuti unosemesa.’
Ita mitambo yako+ iwe Judha, zadzisa mhiko dzako,
Nekuti uya asingabatsiri haazopfuurizve nemauri.
Achaparadzwa zvachose.”
