1Ipapo Jobe kashandula eti,
2“Nanasi kose nditjang'ong'ola kwazo
luboko gwawo gondilemela nenguba ndatjipelegwa.
3Ha ndingabe ndiziba kwandingaubona,
pamwe azha pa bugalo gwawo!
4Ndabe ndowozhisa ndebo yangu mbeli kwawo,
ngono azwilebelekela.
5Ndabe ndowoziba matama aunondishandula ndiwo,
ne kuhwisisa zwaunondidwa.
6Apa unowonyanyaidzana nami nge bukulu gwawo kene?
Ndodwa, nge malebeswa unowonditeedza.
7Ikoko nlulwami unowozwilebelekela nawo
asunungugwa tjatjose mu nsumikilisi wangu.
8“Bonani, ha ndibhudila kunobhuda zhuba aupo ko,
ha ndibhudila kunomila zhuba anditouwana ko.
9Ngono apa uli mu nshingo ku bunadzwa, anditoubona
apa ushandukila ku burwa naiko anditoubona.
10Koga unoziba zila imwe ne imwe yandinotola
ausina kundilika, ndowobhuda ndinga golide.
11Ndakatshamba mu thambo dzawo,
ndakalondolodza zila dzawo ndisingapambukile ntome.
12Andizotongo letja sala shule ndaulo dzawo dzawakaleba,
Ndakabiganya matama awo awakaleba.
13Koga iwo autoshandukila nkumbulo wawo,
ndiani ungaunyanyaidza? Tjaunoyemula unotjithama.
14Unowopeleledza tjawakalongolosa nge kwangu,
ngono ndongoloso dzakajali dzinji mu nkumbulo wawo.
15Ndizo wali ndina kutja kukulu mbeli kwawo
andikumbula kose ikoko, ndoutja dumbu.
16Ndzimu wathama kuti nditjekeke bula,
Masimbawose unonditjisa.
17Koga ate lili zhalima linonditjisa,
nenguba zwako zhalima lakandizwimba mesho.
