1 Petirosi 2:11-17

Vadikanwi, ndinokumbira zvikuru kwamuri, zvamuri vatorwa navaeni, kuti muzvidzore pakuchiva kwenyama kunorwa nomweya; mufambiro wenyu uve wakanaka pakati pavahedheni; kuti pavanokupomerai vachiti munoita zvakaipa, varumbidze Mwari nezuva rokushanyira kana vachiona mabasa enyu akanaka. Muzviise pasi pechirevo chimwe nechimwe chavanhu nokuda kwaIshe: kana ari mambo, nokuti ndiye mukuru; kana vari vabati, nokuti vakatumwa naye kuti vatsive vanoita zvakaipa, uye varumbidze vanoita zvakanaka. Nokuti ndiko kuda kwaMwari, kuti nokuita kwenyu zvakanaka munyaradze kusaziva kwamapenzi; savanhu vakasununguka, musingaiti kusununguka kwenyu kuti chive chifukidzo chezvakaipa, asi muve varanda vaMwari. Kudzai vanhu vose. Idai hama dzose. Ityai Mwari. Kudzai mambo.
