Nokuti munoziva muranda wenyu, Ishe Jehovha. 21 Nokuda kweshoko renyu uye maererano nokuda kwenyu, maita chinhu ichi chikuru uye machizivisa kumuranda wenyu. 22 “Haiwa muri mukuru, imi Ishe Jehovha! Hakuna mumwe akafanana nemi, uye hakuna mumwe Mwari kunze kwenyu, sezvatakanzwa nenzeve dzedu. 23 Uye ndorupi rumwe rudzi rwakaita savanhu venyu vaIsraeri, irwo rudzi panyika rwakadzikinurwa naMwari kuti vave vanhu vake, uye kuti azviitire zita, uye kuti aite zvinhu zvikuru zvinoshamisa nokudzinga marudzi navamwari vawo pamberi pavanhu venyu, vamakadzikinura kubva muIjipiti? 24 Makasimbisa vanhu venyu vaIsraeri kuti vave venyu nokusingaperi, uye imi, Jehovha, mava Mwari wavo. 25 “Naizvozvo zvino, Jehovha Mwari, simbisai nokusingaperi shoko renyu ramakataura pamusoro pomuranda wenyu neimba yake.
