Asi hakuna mumwe wenyu akapwisa Jobho;

17 Neniwo ndichava nechokutaura;

18 Nokuti ndizere namashoko,

19 mukati mangu ndafanana newaini iri muhomwe yakadzivirwa,

20 Ndinofanira kutaura kuti ndirerukirwe;

21 Handina munhu wandichatsaura,

22 nokuti dai ndaiva nyanzvi yokubata kumeso,
Muiti wangu aizokurumidza kunditora.
