Kuungudza KwaJeremiya 3:1-20

Ndini munhu akaona kutambudzika neshamhu yokutsamwa kwake. Akanditungamirira akandifambisa murima ndisina chiedza. Zvirokwazvo anogara achingondiramba zuva rose noruoko rwake. Akasakadza nyama yangu neganda rangu, akavhuna mapfupa angu. Akandivakira rusvingo kuzorwa neni, Aakandikomberedza nenduru nokurwadziwa. Akandigarisa panzvimbo dzinerima, savanhu vakanguva vafa. Akandikomberedza norusvingo, kuti ndirege kugona kubuda; akaremesa ngeketani dzangu. Zvirokwazvo, kana ndichidana nokuridza mhere, anodzivisa munyengetero wangu. Akadzivira nzira dzangu norusvingo rwamabwe akavezwa, akakanganisa nzira dzangu. Kwandiri akaita sebere rinovandira, seshumba iri panzvimbo dzisingazikanwi. Akatsausa nzira dzangu, akandibvarura‐bvarura, akandiita renje. Akakunga uta hwake, akandiita chinhu chokuposhera nomuseve. Akapinza miseve yegoba rake mutsvo dzangu. Ndava chinhu chinosekwa navanhu vangu vose, nechiimbo chavo zuva rose. Akandigutisa nezvinovava, akandinwisa gavakava. Akapedza meno angu norubwe, akandifukidza namadota. Makarashira mweya wangu kure norugare, ndakakanganwa kuti zvakanaka zvakadini. Ini ndikati, “Simba rangu rapera, nezvandakanga ndakatarira kuna Jehovha.” Rangarirai kutambudzika kwangu nenhamo yangu, iro gavakava nenduru. Mweya wangu uchangozvirangarira nazvino, uri kutambudzika kwazvo.
