Mapisarema 119:97-112

Haiwa, ndinoda murayiro wenyu sei! Ndinoufungisisa zuva rose. Mirayiro yenyu inoita kuti ndive akachenjera kupfuura vavengi vangu, nokuti inogara neni nguva dzose. Ndinonzwisisa zvakawanda kupfuura vadzidzisi vangu, nokuti ndinofungisisa pamusoro pezvamakatema. Ndinonzwisisa zvikuru kupfuura vakuru, nokuti ndinoteerera zvirevo zvenyu. Ndakadzora tsoka dzangu panzira dzose dzakaipa kuti nditeerere shoko renyu. Handina kubva pamirayiro yenyu, nokuti imi pachenyu makandidzidzisa. Mashoko enyu anotapira seiko pakuaravira, anotapira kukunda uchi mumukanwa mangu! Ndinowana kunzwisisa kubva pazvirevo zvenyu; naizvozvo ndinovenga nzira dzose dzakaipa. Shoko renyu ndiwo mwenje wetsoka dzangu, nechiedza chenzira yangu. Ndakaita mhiko ndikaisimbisa, kuti ndichatevera mirayiro yenyu yakarurama. Ndakatambudzika kwazvo; chengetedzai upenyu hwangu, imi Jehovha, zvakafanira shoko renyu. Haiwa Jehovha, gamuchirai henyu kurumbidza kwomuromo wangu, mugondidzidzisa mirayiro yenyu. Kunyange ndichiramba ndakabata upenyu hwangu mumaoko angu, handizokanganwi murayiro wenyu. Vakaipa vakanditeya nomusungo, asi handina kutsauka pazvirevo zvenyu. Zvirevo zvenyu inhaka yangu nokusingaperi; ndizvo mufaro womwoyo wangu. Mwoyo wangu wakagarira kuchengeta zvirevo zvenyu, kusvikira kumagumo.
