Job 7

1“Ko, munhu haashandi zvakaoma panyika here?
Ko, mazuva ake haana kuita seomushandi here?
2Somuranda anoshuva mimvuri yamadekwana,
kana mushandi akamirira kwazvo mubayiro wake,
3saizvozvo ndakagoverwa mwedzi isina maturo,
uye usiku hwokutambudzika hwakagoverwa kwandiri.
4Pandinovata pasi ndinofunga kuti, ‘Ndichamuka riniko?’
Usiku hunononoka, uye ndinoshanduka-shanduka kusvikira mambakwedza.
5Muviri wangu wakafukidzwa nehonye uye nemaronda,
ganda rangu rakatsemuka uye raora.

6“Mazuva angu ari kukurumidza kufamba kukunda chokurukisa chomuruki,
uye anosvika kumagumo asina tariro.
7Rangarirai henyu, imi Mwari, kuti upenyu hwangu hunongova mweya wokufema;
meso angu haachazoonizve mufaro.
8Ziso rinondiona zvino harichazondionizve;
muchanditsvaka, asi handichazovapozve.
9Sokunyangarika kunoita gore ndokuenda,
saizvozvo uyo anoburukira kubwiro haadzokizve.
10Haachazouyi kumba kwakezve;
nzvimbo yake haichazomuzivizve.

11“Naizvozvo handinganyarari;

ndichanyunyuta mushungu dzomwoyo wangu,
12Ko, ndiri gungwa kanhi, kana chikara chokwakadzika,

13Pandinofunga kuti mubhedha wangu uchandivaraidza,
uye kuti mubhedha wangu uchadzikamisa kunyunyuta kwangu,
14ipapo munondityisidzira nezviroto
uye munondivhundutsa nezviratidzo,
15zvokuti ndinosarudza kuti ndidzipwe ndife hangu,
pachinzvimbo chomuviri wangu uno.
16Ndinozvidza upenyu hwangu, handidi kurarama nokusingaperi.
Ndiregei nokuti mazuva angu haana zvaanoreva.

17“Munhu chiiko zvamunomukoshesa kudai,

18zvamunomunzvera mangwanani ose
uye muchimuedza nguva dzose?
19Hamusi kuzombotarirawo kudivi here,
kana kumbondisiyawo ndakadaro kwechinguva?
20Kana ndakatadza, ndakaiteiko kwamuri,

Makaitireiko kuti ini ndive munhu wamunovavarira?
Ko, ini ndava mutoro kwamuri here?
21Nemhaka yeiko musingandikanganwiri mhaka dzangu
uye musingandiregereri zvivi zvangu?
Nokuti ndichavata muguruva nokukurumidza.
Muchanditsvaka, asi handichazovapozve.”
