1 Makoronike 16:23-31

Imbirai Jehovha, pasi pose;
paridzai ruponeso rwake zuva nezuva.
Zivisai kubwinya kwake pakati pendudzi,
mabasa ake anoshamisa pakati pavanhu vose.

Nokuti Jehovha mukuru uye anofanira kwazvo kurumbidzwa;
anofanira kutyiwa pamusoro pavamwari vose.
Nokuti vamwari vose vendudzi zvifananidzo,
asi Jehovha akasika matenga.
Kubwinya nokukudzwa zviri pamberi pake;
simba nomufaro zviri munzvimbo yougaro hwake.

Ipai kuna Jehovha, imi mhuri dzendudzi,
ipai Jehovha kukudzwa nesimba,
ipai Jehovha kukudzwa kunofanira zita rake.
Uyai nezvipiriso uye muuye pamberi pake;
namatai Jehovha mukubwinya kwoutsvene hwake.
Dederai pamberi pake, imi nyika yose!
Nyika yakasimbiswa kwazvo; haingazungunuswi.
Matenga ngaafare, nyika ngaifare;
ngavati pakati pendudzi, “Jehovha anotonga!”
