105 Mau a m'Baibulo Okhudza Kudzikonda
Ndikufuna tikambirane za kudzikonda. Umadziwa, nthawi zina timangoganizira zathu zokha, osaganizira ena. Timafuna zinthu zathu zokha, ndipo zimatipatsa chimwemwe chosakhalitsa.
Koma Mulungu sakondwera ndi zimenezi. Mawu ake amanena kuti kupatsa kumaposa kulandira, ndipo amakonda wopatsa mokondwera. Mzimu Woyera amafuna kuti tikhale ndi mtima womvera chisoni, wothandiza anansi athu, monga momwe 1 Akorinto 10:24 imanenera, "Munthu asamafune zake za iye yekha, koma za mnzake".
Monga mwana wa Mulungu, uyenera kuchita zinthu monga Iye, kusonyeza zipatso za Mzimu Woyera. Kudzikonda sikuli mwa Mulungu. Iye ndi Atate wopatsa. Chilichonse chomwe sichifanana ndi Mulungu chimachokera m'thupi, ndipo tiyenera kuchisiya kuti tipeze chifundo ndi chisomo chake.
Ngati wakhala wodzikonda, ulape mochokera pansi pa mtima. Yesu ndi wabwino kukhululukira machimo athu ndi kutiyeretsa ndi Magazi ake. Kenako, yesetsa kuchita zabwino pamaso pa Mulungu Wamphamvuyonse. Khalani wopatsa, osangoganizira za inu nokha. Pezani chikhululukiro kwa omwe mwawakhumudwitsa ndi zochita zanu zoyipa. Mukatero, simudzangopulumutsa moyo wanu, komanso mudzatsogolera ena kwa Khristu.
Ndipo ife amene tili olimba tiyenera kunyamula zofooka za opanda mphamvu, ndi kusadzikondweretsa tokha. Ndiponso anena, Kondwani, amitundu inu, pamodzi ndi anthu ake. Ndiponso, Tamandani Ambuye, inu a mitundu yonse; ndipo anthu onse amtamande. Ndiponso, Yesaya ati, Padzali muzu wa Yese, ndi Iye amene aukira kuchita ufumu pa anthu amitundu; Iyeyo anthu amitundu adzamuyembekezera. Ndipo Mulungu wa chiyembekezo adzaze inu ndi chimwemwe chonse ndi mtendere m'kukhulupirira, kuti mukachuluke ndi chiyembekezo, mu mphamvu ya Mzimu Woyera. Koma ine ndekhanso, abale anga, nditsimikiza mtima za inu, kuti inu nokhanso muli odzala ndi ubwino, odzazidwa ndi kudziwitsa konse, ndi kukhoza kudandaulirana wina ndi mnzake. Koma mwina ndaposa kukulemberani molimba mtima monga kukukumbutsaninso, chifukwa cha chisomo chapatsidwa kwa ine ndi Mulungu, kuti ndikhale mtumiki wa Khristu Yesu kwa anthu amitundu, wakutumikira Uthenga Wabwino wa Mulungu, kuti kupereka kwake kwa anthu amitundu kulandirike, koyeretsedwa ndi Mzimu Woyera. Chifukwa chake ndili nacho chodzitamandira cha mu Khristu Yesu ndi zinthu za kwa Mulungu. Pakuti sindingathe kulimba mtima kulankhula zinthu zimene Khristu sanazichite mwa ine zakumveretsa anthu amitundu, ndi mau ndi ntchito, mu mphamvu ya zizindikiro ndi zozizwitsa, mu mphamvu ya Mzimu Woyera; kotero kuti ine kuyambira ku Yerusalemu ndi kuzungulirako kufikira ku Iliriko, ndinakwanitsa Uthenga Wabwino wa Khristu; Yense wa ife akondweretse mnzake, kumchitira zabwino, zakumlimbikitsa.
Chifukwa chake zinthu zilizonse mukafuna kuti anthu achitire inu, inunso muwachitire iwo zotero; pakuti icho ndicho chilamulo ndi aneneri.
Koma iye amene ali nacho chuma cha dziko lapansi, naona mbale wake ali wosowa ndi kutsekereza chifundo chake pommana iye, nanga chikondi cha Mulungu chikhala mwa iye bwanji?
M'chikondano cha anzanu wina ndi mnzake mukondane ndi chikondi chenicheni; mutsogolerane ndi kuchitira wina mnzake ulemu;
Chikondi chikhala chilezere, chili chokoma mtima; chikondi sichidukidwa; chikondi sichidziwa kudzitamanda, sichidzikuza, sichichita zosayenera, sichitsata za mwini yekha, sichipsa mtima, sichilingirira zoipa;
Pakuti anthu adzakhala odzikonda okha, okonda ndalama, odzitamandira, odzikuza, amwano, osamvera akuwabala, osayamika,
sichichita zosayenera, sichitsata za mwini yekha, sichipsa mtima, sichilingirira zoipa;
Ndipo onani, mzinda wonse unatulukira kukakumana naye Yesu, ndipo m'mene anamuona Iye, anampempha kuti achoke m'malire ao.
Pomwepo Yesu anati kwa ophunzira ake, Ngati munthu afuna kudza pambuyo panga, adzikane yekha, natenge mtanda wake, nanditsate Ine. Pakuti iye amene afuna kupulumutsa moyo wake adzautaya: koma iye amene ataya moyo wake chifukwa cha Ine, adzaupeza. Pakuti munthu adzapindulanji, akalandira dziko lonse, nataya moyo wake? Kapena munthu adzaperekanji chosintha ndi moyo wake?
Ndipo Iye anati kwa iwo, Yang'anirani, mudzisungire kupewa msiriro uliwonse; chifukwa moyo wake wa munthu sulingana ndi kuchuluka kwa zinthu zake ali nazo.
Koma nditi ichi, kuti iye wakufesa mouma manja, mouma manjanso adzatuta. Ndipo iye wakufesa moolowa manja, moolowa manjanso adzatuta.
Koma wamkulu wopambana wa inu adzakhala mtumiki wanu. Ndipo aliyense amene akadzikuza yekha adzachepetsedwa; koma amene adzichepetsa mwini yekha adzakulitsidwa.
Pakuti palibe mmodzi wa ife adzikhalira ndi moyo yekha, ndipo palibe mmodzi adzifera yekha.
Wodala munthu wakuchitira chifundo, nakongoletsa; adzalimbika nao mlandu wake poweruzidwa.
Pakuti adakuitanani inu, abale, mukhale mfulu; chokhacho musachite nao ufulu wanu chothandizira thupi, komatu mwachikondi chitiranani ukapolo.
Koma musaiwale kuchitira chokoma ndi kugawira ena; pakuti nsembe zotere Mulungu akondwera nazo.
Lamulira iwo achuma m'nthawi ino ya pansi pano, kuti asadzikuze, kapena asayembekezere chuma chosadziwika kukhala kwake, koma Mulungu, amene atipatsa ife zonse kochulukira, kuti tikondwere nazo; kuti achite zabwino, nachuluke ndi ntchito zabwino, nakondwere kugawira ena, nayanjane; nadzikundikire okha maziko okoma ku nyengo ikudzayi, kuti akagwire moyo weniweniwo.
Chifukwa chake fetsani ziwalozo zili padziko; dama, chidetso, chifunitso chamanyazi, chilakolako choipa, ndi chisiriro, chimene chili kupembedza mafano;
Wokonda siliva sadzakhuta siliva; ngakhale wokonda chuma sadzakhuta phindu; ichinso ndi chabe.
Musanyengedwe; Mulungu sanyozeka; pakuti chimene munthu achifesa, chimenenso adzachituta. Pakuti wakufesera kwa thupi la iye yekha, chochokera m'thupi adzatuta chivundi; koma wakufesera kwa Mzimu, chochokera mu Mzimu adzatuta moyo wosatha.
Usaope polemezedwa munthu, pochuluka ulemu wa nyumba yake; pakuti pomwalira iye sadzamuka nako kanthu kalikonse; ulemu wake sutsika naye kumtsata m'mbuyo.
Inu ndinu kuunika kwa dziko lapansi. Mzinda wokhazikika pamwamba paphiri sungathe kubisika. Kapena sayatsa nyali, ndi kuivundikira m'mbiya, koma aiika iyo pa choikapo chake; ndipo iunikira onse ali m'nyumbamo. Chomwecho muwalitse inu kuunika kwanu pamaso pa anthu, kuti pakuona ntchito zanu zabwino, alemekeze Atate wanu wa Kumwamba.
ndipo ngati upereka kwa wanjala chimene moyo wako umakhumba, ndi kukhutitsa moyo wovutidwa, pomwepo kuunika kwako kudzauka mumdima, ndipo usiku wako udzanga usana;
Omwe atengedwa kuti akafe, uwapulumutse; omwe ati aphedwe, usaleke kuwalanditsa. Ukanena, Taonani, sitinadziwe chimenechi; kodi woyesa mitima sachizindikira ichi? Ndi wosunga moyo wako kodi sachidziwa? Ndipo kodi sabwezera munthu yense monga mwa machitidwe ake?
Koma Mulungu wanga adzakwaniritsa chosowa chanu chilichonse monga mwa chuma chake mu ulemerero mwa Khristu Yesu.
Ndinali mwana ndipo ndakalamba; ndipo sindinapenye wolungama atasiyidwa, kapena mbumba zake zilinkupempha chakudya.
Pali mmodzi palibe wachiwiri; inde, alibe mwana ngakhale mbale; koma ntchito yake yonse ilibe chitsiriziro, ngakhale diso lake silikhuta chuma. Samati, Ndigwira ntchito ndi kumana moyo wanga zabwino chifukwa cha yani? Ichinso ndi chabe, inde, vuto lalikulu.
Musabwezere choipa, okondedwa, koma patukani pamkwiyo; pakuti kwalembedwa, Kubwezera kuli kwanga, Ine ndidzabwezera, ati Ambuye. Ndipo musafanizidwe ndi makhalidwe a pansi pano: koma mukhale osandulika, mwa kukonzanso kwa mtima wanu, kuti mukazindikire chimene chili chifuniro cha Mulungu, chabwino, ndi chokondweretsa, ndi changwiro. Koma ngati mdani wako akumva njala, umdyetse, ngati akumva ludzu, ummwetse; pakuti pakutero udzaunjika makala a moto pamutu pake. Musagonje kwa choipa, koma ndi chabwino gonjetsani choipa.
Iye amene apeza moyo wake, adzautaya; ndi iye amene ataya moyo wake, chifukwa cha Ine, adzaupeza.
Mbale kapena mlongo akakhala wausiwa, ndi kusowa chakudya cha tsiku lake, ndipo wina wa inu akanena nao, Mukani ndi mtendere, mukafunde ndi kukhuta; osawapatsa iwo zosowa za pathupi; kupindula kwake nchiyani?
Patsani, ndipo kudzapatsidwa kwa inu; muyeso wabwino, wotsendereka, wokuchumuka, wosefukira, anthu adzakupatsani m'manja mwanu. Pakuti kudzayesedwa kwa inu ndi muyeso womwewo muyesa nao inu.
monga yense walandira mphatso, mutumikirane nayo, ngati adindo okoma a chisomo cha mitundumitundu cha Mulungu;
Iye amene sanatimane Mwana wake wa Iye yekha, koma anampereka chifukwa cha ife tonse, adzalekeranji kutipatsanso ife zinthu zonse kwaulere pamodzi ndi Iye?
Palibe munthu angathe kukhala kapolo wa ambuye awiri: pakuti pena adzamuda mmodziyo, ndi kukonda winayo; pena adzakangamira kwa mmodzi, nadzanyoza wina. Simungathe kukhala kapolo wa Mulungu ndi wa Chuma.
Chifukwa chake, monga tili nayo nyengo, tichitire onse chokoma, koma makamaka iwo a pa banja la chikhulupiriro.
Koma apatsa chisomo choposa. Potero anena malembo, Mulungu akaniza odzikuza, koma apatsa chisomo odzichepetsa.
Anagawagawa, anapatsa aumphawi; chilungamo chake chikhalitsa kosatha; nyanga yake idzakwezeka ndi ulemu.
chilichonse mukachichita, gwirani ntchito mochokera mumtima, monga kwa Ambuye, osati kwa anthu ai; podziwa kuti mudzalandira kwa Ambuye mphotho ya cholowa; mutumikira Ambuye Khristu mwaukapolo.
Munthu akati, kuti, Ndikonda Mulungu, nadana naye mbale wake, ali wabodza: pakuti iye wosakonda mbale wake amene wamuona, sangathe kukonda Mulungu amene sanamuone. Ndipo lamulo ili tili nalo lochokera kwa Iye, kuti iye amene akonda Mulungu akondenso mbale wake.
ndipo adafera onse kuti iwo akukhala ndi moyo asakhalenso ndi moyo kwa iwo okha, koma mwa Iye amene adawafera iwo, nauka.
Wochitira chiphwete aumphawi atonza Mlengi; wokondwera ndi tsoka sadzapulumuka chilango.
Yehova, mtima wanga sunadzikuze ndi maso anga sanakwezeke; ndipo sindinatsate zazikulu, kapena zodabwitsa zondiposa.
Yesu ananena naye, Ngati ufuna kukhala wangwiro, pita, kagulitse zomwe uli nazo, nupatse aumphawi, ndipo udzakhala ndi chuma Kumwamba; ndipo ukadze kuno, unditsate.
ndipo tiganizirane wina ndi mnzake kuti tifulumizane ku chikondano ndi ntchito zabwino,
Misona ya mkango isowa nimva njala, koma iwo akufuna Yehova sadzasowa kanthu kabwino.
Koma iye anayankha nanena kwa iwo, Iye amene ali nao malaya awiri apatse kwa iye amene alibe; ndi iye amene ali nazo zakudya achite chomwecho.
Ndidziwa kuti iwo alibe ubwino, koma kukondwa ndi kuchita zabwino pokhala ndi moyo. Ndiponso kuti munthu yense adye namwe naone zabwino m'ntchito zake zonse; ndiwo mtulo wa Mulungu.
Ndipo Mfumuyo idzayankha nidzati kwa iwo, Indetu ndinena kwa inu, Chifukwa munachitira ichi mmodzi wa abale anga, ngakhale ang'onong'ono awa, munandichitira ichi Ine.
Wosocheretsa oongoka mtima alowe m'njira yoipa, adzagwa mwini m'dzenje lake; koma angwiro adzalandira cholowa chabwino.
Mphatso iliyonse yabwino, ndi chininkho chilichonse changwiro zichokera Kumwamba, zotsika kwa Atate wa mauniko, amene alibe chisanduliko, kapena mthunzi wa chitembenukiro.
chifukwa kuti, ngakhale anadziwa Mulungu, sanamchitire ulemu wakuyenera Mulungu, ndipo sanamyamike; koma anakhala opanda pake m'maganizo ao, ndipo unada mtima wao wopulukira.
Pakuti akusiyanitsa iwe ndani? Ndipo uli nacho chiyani chosati wachilandira? Koma ngati wachilandira udzitamanda bwanji, monga ngati sunachilandire?
Pakuti woipa adzitamira chifuniro cha moyo wake, adalitsa wosirira, koma anyoza Yehova.
Wabwino asiyira zidzukulu zake cholowa chabwino; koma wochimwa angosungira wolungama chuma chake.
Ndipo ananenanso kwa iye amene adamuitana, Pamene ukonza chakudya cha pausana kapena cha madzulo, usaitane abwenzi ako, kapena abale ako, kapena a fuko lako, kapena anansi ako eni chuma; kuti kapena iwonso angabwereze kuitana iwe, ndipo udzakhala nayo mphotho. Koma pamene ukonza phwando uitane aumphawi, opunduka, otsimphina, akhungu; ndipo udzakhala wodala; chifukwa iwo alibe chakubwezera iwe mphotho; pakuti idzabwezedwa mphotho pa kuuka kwa olungama.
kwaniritsani chimwemwe changa, kuti mukalingalire mtima zomwezo, akukhala nacho chikondi chomwe, a moyo umodzi, olingalira mtima umodzi;
Pakuti muzu wa zoipa zonse ndiwo chikondi cha pa ndalama; chimene ena pochikhumba, anasochera, nataya chikhulupiriro, nadzipyoza ndi zowawa zambiri.
Chifukwa chake tilondole zinthu za mtendere, ndi zinthu zakulimbikitsana wina ndi mnzake.
Yang'anirani kuti musachite zolungama zanu pamaso pa anthu kuti muonekere kwa iwo; pakuti ngati mutero mulibe mphotho ndi Atate wanu wa Kumwamba. Ufumu wanu udze. Kufuna kwanu kuchitidwe, monga Kumwamba chomwecho pansi pano. Mutipatse ife lero chakudya chathu chalero. Ndipo mutikhululukire mangawa athu, monga ifenso takhululukira amangawa anthu. Ndipo musatitengere kokatiyesa, koma mutipulumutse kwa woipayo. Pakuti ngati mukhululukira anthu zolakwa zao adzakhululukira inunso Atate wanu wa Kumwamba. Koma ngati simukhululukira anthu zolakwa zao, Atate wanunso sadzakhululukira zolakwa zanu. Ndipo pamene ponse musala kudya, musakhale ndi nkhope yachisoni, ngati onyengawo; pakuti aipitsa nkhope zao, kuti aonekere kwa anthu kuti alinkusala kudya. Indetu ndinena kwa inu, Iwo alandiriratu mphotho zao. Koma iwe, posala kudya, dzola mutu wako, ndi kusamba nkhope yako: kuti usaonekere kwa anthu kuti ulikusala kudya, koma kwa Atate wako ali m'tseri: ndipo Atate wako wakuona m'tseri adzakubwezera iwe. Musadzikundikire nokha chuma padziko lapansi, pamene njenjete ndi dzimbiri ziononga; ndi pamene mbala ziboola ndi kuba: Chifukwa chake pamene paliponse upatsa mphatso zachifundo, usamaomba lipenga patsogolo pako, monga amachita onyenga m'masunagoge, ndi m'makwalala, kotero kuti atamandidwe ndi anthu. Indetu ndinena kwa inu, Iwo alandiriratu mphotho zao. koma mudzikundikire nokha chuma mu Mwamba, pamene njenjete kapena dzimbiri siziononga, ndipo mbala siziboola ndi kuba; pakuti kumene kuli chuma chako, komwe udzakhala mtima wakonso. Diso ndilo nyali ya thupi; chifukwa chake ngati diso lako lili la kumodzi, thupi lako lonse lidzakhala lowalitsidwa. Koma ngati diso lako lili loipa, thupi lako lonse lidzakhala lodetsedwa. Chifukwa chake ngati kuwala kumene kuli mwa inu kuli mdima, mdimawo ndi waukulu ndithu! Palibe munthu angathe kukhala kapolo wa ambuye awiri: pakuti pena adzamuda mmodziyo, ndi kukonda winayo; pena adzakangamira kwa mmodzi, nadzanyoza wina. Simungathe kukhala kapolo wa Mulungu ndi wa Chuma. Chifukwa chake ndinena kwa inu, Musadere nkhawa moyo wanu, chimene mudzadya ndi chimene mudzamwa; kapena thupi lanu, chimene mudzavala. Kodi moyo suli woposa chakudya, ndi thupi loposa chovala? Yang'anirani mbalame za kumwamba, kuti sizimafesa ai, kapena sizimatema ai, kapena sizimatutira m'nkhokwe; ndipo Atate wanu wa Kumwamba azidyetsa. Nanga inu mulibe kusiyana nazo kuziposa kodi? Ndipo ndani wa inu ndi kudera nkhawa angathe kuonjezera pa msinkhu wake mkono umodzi? Ndipo muderanji nkhawa ndi chovala? Tapenyetsani maluwa akuthengo, makulidwe ao; sagwiritsa ntchito, kapena sapota: koma ndinena kwa inu, kuti angakhale Solomoni mu ulemerero wake wonse sanavale monga limodzi la amenewa. Koma iwe popatsa mphatso zachifundo, dzanja lako lamanzere lisadziwe chimene lichita dzanja lako lamanja; Koma ngati Mulungu aveka chotero udzu wakuthengo, ukhala lero, ndi mawa uponyedwa pamoto, nanga si inu kopambana ndithu, inu akukhulupirira pang'ono? Chifukwa chake musadere nkhawa, ndi kuti, Tidzadya chiyani? Kapena, Tidzamwa chiyani? Kapena, Tidzavala chiyani? Pakuti anthu akunja azifunitsa zonse zimenezo; pakuti Atate wanu wa Kumwamba adziwa kuti musowa zonse zimenezo. Koma muyambe mwafuna Ufumu wake ndi chilungamo chake, ndipo zonse zimenezo zidzaonjezedwa kwa inu. Chifukwa chake musadere nkhawa za mawa; pakuti mawa adzadzidera nkhawa iwo okha. Zikwanire tsiku zovuta zake. kotero kuti mphatso zako zachifundo zikhale zam'tseri; ndipo Atate wako wakuona m'tseri adzakubwezera iwe.
Pakuti sinditero kuti ena akamasuke, ndi inu musautsidwe; koma mwa kulingana kuchuluka kwanu kukwanire kusowa kwao nthawi ya makono ano, kutinso kuchuluka kwao kukwanire kusowa kwanu.
Nyenyeswa youma, pokhala mtendere, iposa nyumba yodzala nyama yansembe, pali makangano.
Chifukwa chake valani, monga osankhika a Mulungu, oyera mtima ndi okondedwa, mtima wachifundo, kukoma mtima, kudzichepetsa, chifatso, kuleza mtima;
Yehova, ndani adzagonera m'chihema mwanu? Adzagonera ndani m'phiri lanu lopatulika? Iye wakuyendayo mokwanira, nachita chilungamo, nanena zoonadi mumtima mwake.
Koma chipatso cha Mzimu ndicho chikondi, chimwemwe, mtendere, kuleza mtima, chifundo, kukoma mtima, chikhulupiriro,
Koma iye amene sanachidziwe, ndipo anazichita zoyenera mikwapulo, adzakwapulidwa pang'ono. Ndipo kwa munthu aliyense adampatsa zambiri, kwa iye adzafuna zambiri; ndipo amene anamuikizira zambiri, adzamuuza abwezere zoposa.
Tsoka inu, alembi ndi Afarisi, onyenga! Chifukwa mupereka limodzi la magawo khumi la timbeu tonunkhira, ndi katsabola, ndi la chitowe, nimusiya zolemera za chilamulo, ndizo kuweruza kolungama, ndi kuchitira chifundo, ndi chikhulupiriro; koma zijazo munayenera kuzichita, osasiya izi zomwe.
Pakuti kulibe kusiyana Myuda ndi Mgriki; pakuti Yemweyo ali Ambuye wa onse, nawachitira zolemera onse amene aitana pa Iye; pakuti, aliyense amene adzaitana pa dzina la Ambuye adzapulumuka.
Pakuti nzeru itchinjiriza monga ndalama zitchinjiriza; koma kudziwa kupambana, chifukwa nzeru isunga moyo wa eni ake.
Yehova ndipo anati kwa Kaini, Ali kuti Abele mphwako? Ndipo anati, Sindidziwai: kodi ndine woyang'anira mphwanga?
Abale anga, pakuti muli nacho chikhulupiriro cha Ambuye wathu Yesu Khristu, Ambuye wa ulemerero, musakhale okondera ndi kusamala maonekedwe. Pakuti aliyense amene angasunge malamulo onse, koma akakhumudwa pa limodzi, iyeyu wachimwira onse. Pakuti Iye wakuti, Usachite chigololo, anatinso, Usaphe. Ndipo ukapanda kuchita chigololo, koma ukapha, wakhala wolakwira lamulo. Lankhulani motero, ndipo chitani motero, monga anthu amene adzaweruzidwa ndi lamulo la ufulu. Pakuti chiweruziro chilibe chifundo kwa iye amene sanachite chifundo; chifundo chidzitamandira kutsutsana nacho chiweruziro. Chipindulo chake nchiyani, abale anga, munthu akanena, Ndili nacho chikhulupiriro, koma alibe ntchito? Kodi chikhulupirirocho chikhoza kumpulumutsa? Mbale kapena mlongo akakhala wausiwa, ndi kusowa chakudya cha tsiku lake, ndipo wina wa inu akanena nao, Mukani ndi mtendere, mukafunde ndi kukhuta; osawapatsa iwo zosowa za pathupi; kupindula kwake nchiyani? Momwemonso chikhulupiriro, chikapanda kukhala nacho ntchito, chikhala chakufa m'kati mwakemo. Koma wina akati, Iwe uli nacho chikhulupiriro, ndipo ine ndili nazo ntchito; undionetse ine chikhulupiriro chako chopanda ntchito zako, ndipo ine ndidzakuonetsa iwe chikhulupiriro changa chotuluka m'ntchito zanga. Ukhulupirira iwe kuti Mulungu ali mmodzi; uchita bwino; ziwanda zikhulupiriranso, ndipo zinthunthumira. Pakuti akalowa m'sunagoge mwanu munthu wovala mphete yagolide, ndi chovala chokometsetsa, ndipo akalowanso munthu wosauka ndi chovala chodetsa; Koma ufuna kuzindikira kodi, munthu wopanda pake iwe, kuti chikhulupiriro chopanda ntchito chili chabe? Abrahamu kholo lathu, sanayesedwe wolungama ndi ntchito kodi, paja adapereka mwana wake Isaki nsembe paguwa la nsembe? Upenya kuti chikhulupiriro chidachita pamodzi ndi ntchito zake, ndipo motuluka mwa ntchito chikhulupiriro chidayesedwa changwiro; ndipo anakwaniridwa malembo onenawa, Ndipo Abrahamu anakhulupirira Mulungu, ndipo kudawerengedwa kwa iye chilungamo; ndipo anatchedwa bwenzi la Mulungu. Mupenya kuti munthu ayesedwa wolungama ndi ntchito yake, osati ndi chikhulupiriro chokha. Ndipo momwemonso sanayesedwe wolungama Rahabu mkazi wa damayo ndi ntchito kodi, popeza adalandira amithenga, nawatulutsa adzere njira ina? Pakuti monga thupi lopanda mzimu lili lakufa, koteronso chikhulupiriro chopanda ntchito chili chakufa. ndipo mukapenyerera iye wovala chokometsetsa, nimukati naye, Inu mukhale apa pabwino; ndipo mukati kwa wosaukayo, Iwe, imauko, kapena, khala pansi pa mpando wa mapazi anga; kodi simunasiyanitse mwa inu nokha, ndi kukhala oweruza oganizira zoipa?
musachite kanthu monga mwa chotetana, kapena monga mwa ulemerero wopanda pake, komatu ndi kudzichepetsa mtima, yense ayese anzake omposa iye mwini;
Koma mukakhala nako kaduka kowawa, ndi chotetana m'mtima mwanu, musadzitamandira, ndipo musamanama potsutsana nacho choonadi.
Yense achite monga anatsimikiza mtima, si mwa chisoni kapena mokakamiza, pakuti Mulungu akonda wopereka mokondwerera.
Pakuti pomwe pali kaduka ndi zotetana, pamenepo pali chisokonekero ndi chochita choipa chilichonse.
Ndipo ntchito za thupi zionekera, ndizo dama, chodetsa, kukhumba zonyansa, Taonani, ine Paulo ndinena ndi inu, kuti, ngati mulola akuduleni, Khristu simudzapindula naye kanthu. kupembedza mafano, nyanga, madano, ndeu, kaduka, zopsa mtima, zotetana, magawano, mipatuko, njiru, kuledzera, mchezo, ndi zina zotere; zimene ndikuchenjezani nazo, monga ndachita, kuti iwo akuchitachita zotere sadzalowa Ufumu wa Mulungu.
