Mapisarema 27:4-8

Chinhu chimwe chete chandinokumbira kuna Jehovha,
ndicho chandinotsvaka:
kuti ndigare mumba maJehovha
mazuva ose oupenyu hwangu,
kuti nditarire kunaka kwaJehovha
uye ndimutsvake mutemberi yake.
Nokuti zuva rokutambudzika
achandichengeta zvakanaka munzvimbo yaanogara;
achandiviga mudumba retabhenakeri yake,
agondikwidza pamusoro pedombo.

Ipapo musoro wangu uchasimudzirwa
pamusoro pavavengi vakandipoteredza;
ndichamubayira zvibayiro patabhenakeri yake nomufaro mukuru;
ndichaimba ndigoimbira Jehovha nziyo.

Inzwai inzwi rangu kana ndichidana, imi Jehovha;
ndinzwirei ngoni mugondipindura.
Mwoyo wangu unoti kwandiri, “Tsvaka chiso chake!”
Chiso chenyu, Jehovha, ndichachitsvaka.
