“Regai kuzviunganidzira upfumi panyika. Pahunodyiwa nezvipfukuto nengura nehonye, panozopazwa nembavha dzichiba. Asi zviunganidzirei upfumi kudenga, kusina chipfukuto kana ngura inohudya, kusingapazwi nembavha dzichiba, nokuti pano upfumi hwako ndipo pano mwoyo wakowo. “Ziso ndiro mwenje womuviri. Nezvo kana ziso rako rakanaka muviri wako wose uchazara nechiedza. Asi kana ziso rako risina kunaka muviri wako wose uchazara nerima. Zvino kana chiedza chiri mamuri chava rima, rima racho richava rakakura sei! “Hapana munhu angashandire vatenzi vaviri, nokuti anogona kuvenga mumwe achida mumwe, kana kuti anoti kwati kwati nomumwe achizvidza mumwe. Haugoni kuva muranda waMwari nomuranda wemari. “Vimba naMwari kuti anokupa zvinokuraramisa. Nezvo ndinoti kwamuri musazvidye mwoyo nezvoupenyu hwenyu kuti muchadyei kana kuti muchanwei kana nezvomuviri wenyu kuti muchapfekei. Ihwo upenyu hausi hwakakosha here kupinda chokudya, uye muviri haupfuuri chokupfeka here? “Tarisai muone shiri dzedenga hadzidyari kana kukohwa kana kuunganidza mumatura asi Baba venyu vokudenga vanodzipa chokudya. Hamuna kukosha here kupinda idzo? Ndiani wenyu angarebese upenyu hwake nechidimbu pamusana pokuzvidya mwoyo? Ko munozvinetsereiko muchifunga nezvokupfeka? Tarisai muone maruva esango kuti anokura sei. Haabati basa kana kuruka. Asi ndinoti kwamuri kunyange Soromoni pachake nembiri yake yose iya, akanga asina kushongedzwa serimwe raiwaya. Kana Mwari achishongedza uswa homusango huripo nhasi uno, mangwana hwokandwa muchoto, haasi anokupfekedzai zvakatonyanya here imi vanhu vochitendero chiduku. Saka musazvidye mwoyo muchiti tichadyei kana kuti tichanwei kana kuti tichapfekei. Nokuti vechirudzi vanotsvaka zvose izvi asi Baba venyu vokudenga vanoziva kuti zvose izvi munozvida. Imi, kutangira zvose tsvakai umambo hwake; noururami hwake, zvinhu zvose izvi zvichavawo zvenyu. “Nezvo musazvidye mwoyo nezvamangwana nokuti mangwana achazvionera oga, zuva roga roga rine nhamo dzaro dzakarikwanira.”
