| 1. | Ipapo Jobho akapindura, akati, |
| 2. | Ndatonzwa hangu mashoko mazhinji akadai; Imi mose muri vanyaradzi pasina. |
| 3. | Ko mashoko asina maturo achapera here? Chinyiko chinokugombedzera kupindura? |
| 4. | Neniwo ndaigona kutaura semi; Kana mweya yenyu yaiva panzvimbo yomweya wangu, Ndaigonawo kubatanidza mashoko pamusoro penyu, Ndaikudzungudzirai musoro wangu. |
| 5. | Asi ndingadai ndaikusimbisai nomuromo wangu, Nokuvaraidza kwemiromo yangu kwaikuremudzai. |
| 6. | Kunyange ndichitaura hangu, kuchema kwangu hakuremudzwi; Kunyange ndikarega hangu, ndinotapudzirwa neiko? |
| 7. | Asi zvino iye andinetsa, Imi maparadza mhuri yangu yose. |
| 8. | Imi makandibata nesimba, ndizvo zvinondipupurira; Kuonda kwangu kunondimukira, Kunondipupurira zvakaipa pachena. |
| 9. | Iye akandibvarura pakutsamwa kwake, akandivenga; Akarumanya meno ake pamusoro pangu; Mudzivisi wangu anondiwetsera meso ake. |
| 10. | Vakandishamisira miromo yavo Vakandirova padama, vachindituka, Vanoungana kuzorwa neni. |
| 11. | Mwari anondiisa kuna vasakarurama; Anondikanda pamaoko avakaipa. |
| 12. | Ndakanga ndichizorora hangu, iye akandivhuna; Zvirokwazvo akandibata nomumutsipa, akandiputsanya; Akandiita chiposherwa chake. |
| 13. | Miseve yake inondikomba kumativi ose; Anopamura itsvo dzangu, asinganzwiri nyasha; Anodururira nduru yangu pasi. |
| 14. | Anondikoromora nokukoromora-koromora; Anomhanyira kwandiri semhare. |
| 15. | Ndakasonera masaga paganda rangu, Ndakaradzika runyanga rwangu muguruva. |
| 16. | Chiso changu chatsvuka nokuchema. Mumvuri worufu uri pamafungiro ameso angu. |
| 17. | Kunyange maoko angu asingadi hawo kuparadza, Nokunyengetera kwangu kwakanaka hako. |
| 18. | Iwe nyika, rega hako kufukidza ropa rangu; Kuchema kwangu ngakushaiwe nzvimbo yokuzorora. |
| 19. | Nazvino, tarirai, chapupu changu chiri kudenga, Iye, anondipupurira zvakanaka, ari kumusoro. |
| 20. | Shamwari dzangu dzinondishora, Asi ziso rangu rinodurura misodzi yangu pamberi paMwari. |
| 21. | Kuti aruramisire munhu pamberi paMwari, NoMwanakomana womunhu pamberi powokwake. |
| 22. | Nokuti kana makore mashoma apfuura, Ndichafamba nenzira yandisingazodzokizve nayo." |
