Izviwo hazvigari. 7Zvirokwazvo kudzvinyirira kunoshandura munhu akachenjera kuva benzi, uye fufuro rinoodza mwoyo. 8Magumo enyaya ari nani kupfuura mavambo ayo, uye mweya une mwoyo murefu uri nani kupfuura mweya unozvikudza. 9Usakurumidza mumweya wako kutsamwa, nokuti kutsamwa kunogara muchipfuva chamapenzi. 10Usati, “Sei mazuva akare akanga ari nani kupfuura aya?” Nokuti hausi kubvunza izvi nokuchenjera. 11Uchenjeri hwakanaka pamwe nenhaka, chinobatsira kuna avo vanoona zuva. a a v11 'Avo vanoona zuva' chirevo chechiHebheru chinoreva vapenyu — avo vachiri vapenyu. 12Nokuti uchenjeri chidzitiro, sezvakangoita mari, asi kunakira kworuzivo ndeuku: uchenjeri hunochengetedza upenyu hwomuridzi wahwo. 13Funga nezvebasa raMwari: ndiani angagona kururamisa chaakakombamisa? 14Pazuva rokubudirira, fara, uye pazuva rokutambudzika, funga: Mwari akaita ichi neichowo, kuitira kuti parege kuva nomunhu angaziva chinhu chichauya shure kwake.
15Mumazuva angu asingagari, ndakaona zvose: munhu akarurama achifa ari mukururama kwake, munhu akaipa achirarama nguva refu ari muuipi hwake. 16Usava akarurama zvakapfurikidza, uye usazviita akachenjera zvakanyanya; ungazviparadzireiko? 17Usava akaipa zvakanyanya, uye usava benzi—ungafireiko nguva yako isati yasvika? 18Zvakanaka kubatisisa ichi, uye kusaregedzawo icho, nokuti ani naani anotya Mwari anobuda mune zviri zviviri. 19Uchenjeri hunopa munhu akachenjera simba kupfuura vatongi gumi vari muguta. 20Zvirokwazvo hakuna munhu akarurama panyika anoita zvakanaka asingatongotadzi. 21Uyewo, usaisa mumwoyo zvose zvinotaurwa navanhu, kuti urege kunzwa muranda wako achikutuka, 22nokuti mwoyo wako pachako unoziva kuti kazhinji iwe pachako wakatuka vamwe. 23Ndakaedza izvi zvose nouchenjeri. Ndakati, “Ndichava akachenjera”—asi zvakandikunda. 24Chose chiripo chiri kure uye chakadzika, chakadzika kwazvo—ndiani angachiwana? 25Ndakatendeudzira mwoyo wangu kuti ndizive, ndiongorore, uye nditsvake uchenjeri nemano ezvinhu, uye kuti ndizive uipi hwoupenzi noupenzi hunova kupenga. 26Ndinowana mukadzi achivava kupfuura rufu: mwoyo wake misungo neumbure, maoko ake ngetani. Uyo akanaka pamberi paMwari anomupukunyuka; mutadzi anobatwa naye.
27“Tarira, izvi ndizvo zvandakawana,” anodaro Mudzidzisi, “ndichiwedzera chimwe pane chimwe kuti ndiwane mano acho, 28iwo mweya wangu wakaramba uchitsvaka asi ndikasawana. Murume mumwe pane chiuru ndakamuwana, asi mukadzi pakati pavose ava handina kuwana. 29Tarira, ichi ndicho choga chandakawana: Mwari akaita vanhu vakarurama, asi ivo vakatsvaka mano mazhinji.”
