Jobho Anosimudzazve Izwi Rake

Achipika naMwari iyeye akamutorera kururamisirwa kwake, Jobho anoramba kubvuma kuti shamwari dzake dzakarurama; achabatisisa kuperera kwake kusvikira afa. Ipapo iye pachake anotsanangura mugove womunhu akaipa: sirivha yakaunganidzwa inopfekwa navakarurama, chamupupuri chousiku, imba yedandemutande.

Chitsauko 27.

Jobho akapamhazve kutaura kwake, akati: “NaMwari mupenyu, iye akanditorera kururamisirwa kwangu, uye Wamasimba Ose, iye akavavisa mweya wangu, chero kufema kwangu kuchiri mandiri, uye Mweya waBaba vedu uri mumhino dzangu, miromo yangu haingatauri nhema, uye rurimi rwangu harungatauri unyengeri. Handingambobvumi kuti makarurama; kusvikira ndafa handingaregedzi kuperera kwangu. Ndakabatirira pakururama kwangu uye handingakuregedzi; mwoyo wangu haundipomeri pamazuva angu ose.

“Muvengi wangu ngaave somunhu akaipa, uye uyo anondimukira ngaave souya asina kururama. Nokuti itariro yipi yomunhu asingadi Mwari kana agurwa, kana Mwari achitora upenyu hwake? Ko Mwari achanzwa here kuchema kwake kana dambudziko richimuwira? Ko achafarira Wamasimba Ose here? Ko achadana kuna Mwari nguva dzose here? Ndichakudzidzisai pamusoro poruoko rwaMwari; handingavanzi zviri kuna Wamasimba Ose. Tarirai, imi mose makazviona pachenyu; nei zvino muchitaura mashoko asina maturo akadai? Uyu ndiwo mugove womunhu akaipa unobva kuna Mwari, nhaka inogamuchirwa navamanikidzi kubva kuna Wamasimba Ose: Kana vana vake vakawanda, vachaurayiwa nomunondo, uye vana vake havangaguti chingwa. Vaya vanosara vake vachavigwa nehosha yedenda, uye chirikadzi dzavo hadzingachemi. Kunyange akaunganidza sirivha seguruva uye akatuta nguo sevhu, angazvituta hake, asi munhu akarurama ndiye achaapfeka, uye asina mhosva achagovana sirivha. Anovaka imba yake sedendere rechipfukuto, sedumba rinoitwa nomurindi. Anorara ari mupfumi, asi haachazozviiti zvakare; anosvinura meso ake, asi zvose zvapera. Zvinotyisa zvinomubata semafashamo; usiku chamupupuri chinomukukura. Mhepo yokumabvazuva inomusimudza, oenda; inomukukura ichimubvisa panzvimbo yake. Inozviwisira paari pasina tsitsi; iye anotiza-tiza achibva pasimba rayo. Inouchira maoko ayo kwaari, ichimuhwishira ichimubvisa panzvimbo yake.”
