2 Kutsamwa kwamambo kwakafanana nokuomba kweshumba; uyo anomutsamwisa anotadzira upenyu hwake.
3 Munhu achakudzwa kana akagara kure nokukakavara, asi benzi rimwe nerimwe rinokurumidza kupopota.
4 Simbe hairimi mumwaka wokurima; saka panguva yokukohwa anotsvaka asi hapana chaanowana.
5 Zvinangwa zvomwoyo womunhu imvura yakadzika, asi munhu akachenjera achaichera.
6 Vanhu vazhinji vanoti vane rudo rusingagumi, asi munhu akatendeka angawanikwa kupiko?
7 Munhu akarurama anorarama upenyu hwakanaka; vana vake vanomutevera vakaropafadzwa.
8 Kana mambo achinge agara pachigaro chake kuti atonge, anopepeta zvakaipa zvose nameso ake.
