"Zhuh voo-zawn pree" is the pronunciation of the French phrase Je vous en prie.

Specifically, the subject pronoun je is "I." The object pronoun vous means "(formal singular) you" or "(informal plural) you all)" depending on context. The partitive enmeans "some (of it, them, etc.)." The present indicative verb prie translates literally as "(I) am begging/pleading, beg/plead, do beg/plead."

The complete phrase may be rendered more literally into English as "I beg of you" or by context as "Go ahead," "Please," and "You're welcome."
