1 VaKorinde 13:1-7

Kunyange ndikataura nendimi dzavanhu nedzavatumwa, ndisina rudo, ndava sendarira dzinorira, nedare rinongoti, Ngwerengwere! Kunyange ndine chipo chokuporofita, ndichinzwisisa zvakavanzika zvose, nokuziva kwose; kunyange ndinokutenda kwose, kuti ndibvise makomo, ndisina rudo, handizi chinhu. Kunyange ndagovera varombo zvose zvandinazvo, kunyange ndikaisa muviri wangu kuti ndipiswe, ndisina rudo, handibatsiri chinhu. Rudo runomwoyo murefu, runomwoyo munyoro; rudo haruna godo; rudo haruna manyawi haruzvikudzi; haruiti zvisingafaniri, haruzvitsvakiri zvarwo; harutsamwi, haruna zvishura; harufariri zvisakarurama, asi runofarira chokwadi; runofukidza zvose, runotenda zvose, rune tariro pazvose, runotsungirira pazvose.
