Ndikufunika ndikuuzeni kuti kutumikira Mulungu kumatanthauza kumvera malangizo ake nthawi yonse ya moyo wanga. Tiyenera kusiya kukhutiritsa zilakolako zathu ndi zisankho zathu, ndikusiya kudziona ngati ofunika kwambiri.
Tikamaika miyoyo yathu potumikira Mulungu ndi ena, tidzapeza tanthauzo lenileni la moyo.
Kunyamula mtanda si kulamulidwa, koma ndi chisankho changa chomwe chimasonyeza kudzikana ndekha kuti ena akhale bwino ndiponso kuti uthenga wabwino ufalikire.
Yesu anaphunzitsa ophunzira ake kuti: "Aliyense akufuna kunditsata, adzikane yekha, anyamule mtanda wake, ndipo anditsate." (Mateyu 16:24).
Pakuti ndithu, Mwana wa Munthu sanadze kutumikiridwa, koma kutumikira, ndi kupereka moyo wake dipo la kwa anthu ambiri.
Yehova akubwezere ntchito yako, nakupatse mphotho yokwanira Yehova, Mulungu wa Israele, amene unadza kuthawira pansi pa mapiko ake.
Sikudzakhala chomwecho kwa inu ai; koma aliyense amene akafuna kukhala wamkulu mwa inu, adzakhala mtumiki wanu;
Ndipo m'mene anakhala pansi anaitana khumi ndi awiriwo; nanena nao, Ngati munthu afuna kukhala woyamba, akhale wakuthungo wa onse, ndi mtumiki wa onse.
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.
Chifukwa chake, monga tili nayo nyengo, tichitire onse chokoma, koma makamaka iwo a pa banja la chikhulupiriro.
monga Mwana wa Munthu sanadze kutumikiridwa koma kutumikira, ndi kupereka moyo wake dipo la anthu ambiri.
Ndipo chilichonse mukachichita m'mau kapena muntchito, chitani zonse m'dzina la Ambuye Yesu, ndi kuyamika Mulungu Atate mwa Iye.
Chifukwa chake, ngati Ine Ambuye ndi Mphunzitsi, ndasambitsa mapazi anu, inunso muyenera kusambitsana mapazi wina ndi mnzake.
Chotero munthu atiyese ife, monga atumiki a Khristu, ndi adindo a zinsinsi za Mulungu.
akuchita ukapolo ndi kuvomereza mtima, monga kutumikira Ambuye Yesu Khristu, si anthu ai;
Koma mumuope Yehova, ndi kumtumikira koona, ndi mtima wanu wonse; lingalirani zinthu zazikuluzo Iye anakuchitirani.
Ngati wina anditumikira Ine, anditsate; ndipo kumene kuli Ine, komwekonso kudzakhala mtumiki wanga. Ngati wina anditumikira Ine, Atate adzamchitira ulemu iyeyu.
musachite kanthu monga mwa chotetana, kapena monga mwa ulemerero wopanda pake, komatu ndi kudzichepetsa mtima, yense ayese anzake omposa iye mwini; pakuti chifukwa cha ntchito ya Khristu anafikira pafupi imfa, wosasamalira moyo wake, kuti akakwaniritse chiperewero cha utumiki wanu wa kwa ine. munthu yense asapenyerere zake za iye yekha, koma yense apenyererenso za mnzake.
Koma muyambe mwafuna Ufumu wake ndi chilungamo chake, ndipo zonse zimenezo zidzaonjezedwa kwa inu.
Mukhale nao mtima m'kati mwanu umene unalinso mwa Khristu Yesu, ameneyo, pokhala nao maonekedwe a Mulungu, sanachiyese cholanda kukhala wofana ndi Mulungu, koma anadzikhuthula yekha, natenga maonekedwe a kapolo, nakhala m'mafanizidwe a anthu;
pakuti Mulungu sali wosalungama kuti adzaiwala ntchito yanu, ndi chikondicho mudachionetsera kudzina lake, umo mudatumikira oyera mtima ndi kuwatumikirabe.
kuti achite zabwino, nachuluke ndi ntchito zabwino, nakondwere kugawira ena, nayanjane;
M'zinthu zonse ndinakupatsani chitsanzo, chakuti pogwiritsa ntchito, kotero muyenera kuthandiza ofooka ndi kukumbuka mau a Ambuye Yesu, kuti anati yekha, Kupatsa kutidalitsa koposa kulandira.
Chifukwa chake, abale anga okondedwa, khalani okhazikika, osasunthika, akuchuluka mu ntchito ya Ambuye, nthawi zonse, podziwa kuti kuchititsa kwanu sikuli chabe mwa Ambuye.
Ichi adzachilembera mbadwo ukudza; ndi mtundu wa anthu umene udalengedwa udzamlemekeza Yehova.
Pakuti ife ndife antchito anzake a Mulungu; chilimo cha Mulungu, chimango cha Mulungu ndi inu.
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.
ndipo ngati upereka kwa wanjala chimene moyo wako umakhumba, ndi kukhutitsa moyo wovutidwa, pomwepo kuunika kwako kudzauka mumdima, ndipo usiku wako udzanga usana;
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;
Pakuti utumiki wa kutumikira kumene sudzaza zosowa za oyera mtima zokha, koma uchulukiranso kwa Mulungu mwa mayamiko ambiri; popeza kuti mwa kuyesa kwa utumiki umene alemekeza Mulungu pa kugonja kwa chivomerezo chanu ku Uthenga Wabwino wa Khristu, ndi kwa kuolowa manja kwa chigawano chanu kwa iwo ndi kwa onse;
anachita eni ake, natiumiriza ndi kutidandaulira za chisomocho, ndi za chiyanjano cha utumiki wa kwa oyera mtima;
Aleluya; Lemekezani, inu atumiki a Yehova; lemekezani dzina la Yehova. Lodala dzina la Yehova Kuyambira tsopano kufikira kosatha.
Ndipo muzitumikira Yehova Mulungu wanu, potero adzadalitsa chakudya chako, ndi madzi ako; ndipo ndidzachotsa nthenda pakati pa iwe.
Ndipo ndinamva mau a Ambuye akuti, Ndidzatumiza yani, ndipo ndani adzatimukira ife? Ndipo ine ndinati, Ndine pano; munditumize ine.
wotumikira Ambuye ndi kudzichepetsa konse ndi misozi, ndi mayesero anandigwera ndi ziwembu za Ayuda;
Ndipo ananena kwa iwo, Dzinthu dzichuluka, koma antchito achepa; potero pemphani Mwini dzinthu, kuti akankhe antchito kukututa kwake.
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.
Koma sipadzatero ndi inu; komatu iye ali wamkulu mwa inu, akhale ngati wamng'ono; ndi iye ali woyamba, akhale ngati wotumikira. Pakuti wamkulu ndani, iye wakuseama pachakudya kapena wakutumikirapo? Si ndiye wakuseama pachakudya kodi? Koma Ine ndili pakati pa inu monga ngati wotumikira.
Ndipo kapolo wa Ambuye sayenera kuchita ndeu, komatu akhale woyenera, waulere pa onse, wodziwa kuphunzitsa, woleza,
Okhulupirika mauwa, ndipo za izi ndifuna kuti ulimbitse mau, kuti iwo akukhulupirira Mulungu asamalire akhalebe atsogoleri a ntchito zabwino. Izi nzokoma ndi zopindulitsa anthu;
ndi kukumbukira kosalekeza ntchito yanu ya chikhulupiriro, ndi chikondi chochitachita, ndi chipiriro cha chiyembekezo cha Ambuye wathu Yesu Khristu, pamaso pa Mulungu Atate wathu;
Muchitire chokoma mtumiki wanu kuti ndikhale ndi moyo; ndipo ndidzasamalira mau anu.
Koma ndikupemphani inu, abale, (mudziwa banja la Stefanasi, kuti ali chipatso choyamba cha Akaya, ndi kuti anadziika okha kutumikira oyera mtima),
Koma musaiwale kuchitira chokoma ndi kugawira ena; pakuti nsembe zotere Mulungu akondwera nazo.
Mundiphunzitse chokonda Inu; popeza Inu ndinu Mulungu wanga; Mzimu wanu ndi wokoma; munditsogolere kuchidikha.
Kapolo wochita mwanzeru adzalamulira mwana wochititsa manyazi, nadzagawana nao abale cholowa.
Chilichonse dzanja lako lichipeza kuchichita, uchichite ndi mphamvu yako; pakuti mulibe ntchito ngakhale kulingirira ngakhale kudziwa, ngakhale nzeru, kumanda ulikupitako.
Chomwecho muwalitse inu kuunika kwanu pamaso pa anthu, kuti pakuona ntchito zanu zabwino, alemekeze Atate wanu wa Kumwamba.
Sikudzakhala chomwecho kwa inu ai; koma aliyense amene akafuna kukhala wamkulu mwa inu, adzakhala mtumiki wanu; ndipo aliyense amene akafuna kukhala woyamba mwa inu, adzakhala kapolo wanu: monga Mwana wa Munthu sanadze kutumikiridwa koma kutumikira, ndi kupereka moyo wake dipo la anthu ambiri.
pakuti ndinali ndi njala, ndipo munandipatsa Ine kudya; ndinali ndi ludzu, ndipo munandimwetsa Ine; ndinali mlendo, ndipo munachereza Ine; wamaliseche Ine, ndipo munandiveka; ndinadwala, ndipo munadza kucheza ndi Ine; ndinali m'nyumba yandende, ndipo munadza kwa Ine. Pomwepo olungama adzamyankha Iye kuti, Ambuye, tinakuonani Inu liti wanjala, ndi kukudyetsani? Kapena waludzu, ndi kukumwetsani? Ndipo tinaona Inu liti mlendo, ndi kukucherezani? Kapena wamaliseche, ndi kukuvekani? Ndipo tinakuonani Inu liti wodwala, kapena m'nyumba yandende, ndipo tinadza kwa Inu? koma anzeruwo anatenga mafuta m'nsupa zao, pamodzi ndi nyali zao. 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.
Chifukwa chake mukani, phunzitsani anthu a mitundu yonse, ndi kuwabatiza iwo m'dzina la Atate, ndi la Mwana, ndi la Mzimu Woyera: Ndipo onani, panali chivomezi chachikulu; pakuti mngelo wa Ambuye anatsika Kumwamba, nafika kukunkhuniza mwalawo, nakhala pamwamba pake. ndi kuwaphunzitsa, asunge zinthu zonse zimene ndinakulamulani inu; ndipo onani, Ine ndili pamodzi ndi inu masiku onse, kufikira chimaliziro cha nthawi ya pansi pano.
Ndipo iye anayankha nati, Uzikonda Ambuye Mulungu wako ndi mtima wako wonse, ndi moyo wako wonse, ndi mphamvu yako yonse, ndi nzeru zako zonse, ndi mnansi wako monga iwe mwini.
Pamenepo, atatha Iye kusambitsa mapazi ao, ndi kutenga malaya ake, anaseamanso, nati kwa iwo, Nanga chimene ndakuchitirani inu, muchizindikira kodi? Inu munditcha Ine Mphunzitsi, ndi Ambuye: ndipo munena bwino; pakuti ndine amene. Chifukwa chake, ngati Ine Ambuye ndi Mphunzitsi, ndasambitsa mapazi anu, inunso muyenera kusambitsana mapazi wina ndi mnzake. Pakuti ndakupatsani inu chitsanzo, kuti, monga Ine ndakuchitirani inu, inunso muchite.
Lamulo langa ndi ili, kuti mukondane wina ndi mnzake, monga ndakonda inu. Palibe munthu ali nacho chikondi choposa ichi, chakuti munthu ataya moyo wake chifukwa cha abwenzi ake.
Chifukwa chake ndikupemphani inu, abale, mwa zifundo za Mulungu, kuti mupereke matupi anu nsembe yamoyo, yopatulika, yokondweretsa Mulungu, ndiko kupembedza kwanu koyenera. M'chikondano cha anzanu wina ndi mnzake mukondane ndi chikondi chenicheni; mutsogolerane ndi kuchitira wina mnzake ulemu; musakhale aulesi m'machitidwe anu; khalani achangu mumzimu, tumikirani Ambuye; kondwerani m'chiyembekezo, pirirani m'masautso; limbikani chilimbikire m'kupemphera. Patsani zosowa oyera mtima; cherezani aulendo. Dalitsani iwo akuzunza inu; dalitsani, musawatemberere. Kondwani nao iwo akukondwera; lirani nao akulira. Mukhale ndi mtima umodzi wina ndi mnzake. Musasamalire zinthu zazikulu, koma phatikanani nao odzichepetsa. Musadziyesere anzeru mwa inu nokha. Musabwezere munthu aliyense choipa chosinthana ndi choipa. Ganiziranitu zinthu za ulemu pamaso pa anthu onse. Ngati nkutheka, monga momwe mukhoza, khalani ndi mtendere ndi anthu onse. 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.
M'chikondano cha anzanu wina ndi mnzake mukondane ndi chikondi chenicheni; mutsogolerane ndi kuchitira wina mnzake ulemu;
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.
Pakuti pokhala ndinali mfulu kwa onse, ndinadzilowetsa ndekha ukapolo kwa onse, kuti ndipindule ochuluka.
Ndipo pali mphatso zosiyana, koma Mzimu yemweyo. Ndipo pali mautumiki osiyana, koma Ambuye yemweyo. Ndipo pali machitidwe osiyana, koma Mulungu yemweyo, wakuchita zinthu zonse mwa onse. Koma kwa yense kwapatsidwa maonekedwe a Mzimu kuti apindule nao.
Pakuti tilalikira si za ife tokha, koma Yesu Khristu Ambuye, ndi ife tokha akapolo anu, chifukwa cha Khristu.
Pakuti adakuitanani inu, abale, mukhale mfulu; chokhacho musachite nao ufulu wanu chothandizira thupi, komatu mwachikondi chitiranani ukapolo.
Pakuti ife ndife chipango chake, olengedwa mwa Khristu Yesu, kuchita ntchito zabwino, zimene Mulungu anazipangiratu, kuti tikayende m'menemo.
Ndipo Iye anapatsa ena akhale atumwi; ndi ena aneneri; ndi ena alaliki; ndi ena abusa, ndi ena aphunzitsi; kuti akonzere oyera mtima kuntchito ya utumiki, kumangirira thupi la Khristu;
akuchita ukapolo ndi kuvomereza mtima, monga kutumikira Ambuye Yesu Khristu, si anthu ai; podziwa kuti chinthu chokoma chilichonse yense achichita, adzambwezera chomwechi Ambuye, angakhale ali kapolo kapena mfulu.
Koma, abale, tikupemphani, dziwani iwo akugwiritsa ntchito mwa inu, nakhala akulu anu mwa Ambuye, nakuyambirirani inu; ndipo muwachitire ulemu woposatu mwa chikondi, chifukwa cha ntchito yao. Khalani mumtendere mwa inu nokha.
amene anatipulumutsa ife, natiitana ife ndi maitanidwe oyera, si monga mwa ntchito zathu, komatu monga mwa chitsimikizo mtima cha Iye yekha, ndi chisomo, chopatsika kwa ife mwa Khristu Yesu nthawi zisanayambe,
ndipo tiganizirane wina ndi mnzake kuti tifulumizane ku chikondano ndi ntchito zabwino, osaleka kusonkhana kwathu pamodzi, monga amachita ena, komatu tidandaulirane, ndiko koposa monga momwe muona tsiku lilikuyandika.
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.
monga yense walandira mphatso, mutumikirane nayo, ngati adindo okoma a chisomo cha mitundumitundu cha Mulungu; akalankhula wina, alankhule ngati manenedwe a Mulungu; wina akatumikira, achite ngati mu mphamvu imene Mulungu ampatsa, kuti m'zonse Mulungu alemekezedwe mwa Yesu Khristu, amene ali nao ulemerero ndi mphamvu kunthawi za nthawi. Amen.
Wetani gulu la Mulungu lili mwa inu, ndi kuliyang'anira, osati mokakamiza, koma mwaufulu, kwa Mulungu; osatsata phindu lonyansa, koma mwachangu; osati monga ochita ufumu pa iwo a udindo wanu, koma okhala zitsanzo za gululo.
Misona ya mkango isowa nimva njala, koma iwo akufuna Yehova sadzasowa kanthu kabwino.
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?
phunzirani kuchita zabwino; funani chiweruzo; thandizani osautsidwa, weruzirani ana amasiye, munenere akazi amasiye.
Chifukwa chake zinthu zilizonse mukafuna kuti anthu achitire inu, inunso muwachitire iwo zotero; pakuti icho ndicho chilamulo ndi aneneri.
Ndipo aliyense amene adzamwetsa mmodzi wa ang'ono awa chikho chokha cha madzi ozizira, pa dzina la wophunzira, indetu ndinena kwa inu, iye sadzataya mphotho yake.
Odala akapolowo amene mbuye wao, pakudza iye, adzawapeza odikira; indetu ndinena ndinu, kuti iye adzadzimangira m'chuuno, nadzawakhalitsa pansi kudya, nadzafika, nadzawatumikira.
Chotero inunso m'mene mutachita zonse anakulamulirani, nenani, Ife ndife akapolo opanda pake, tangochita zimene tayenera kuzichita.
Ndikupatsani inu lamulo latsopano, kuti mukondane wina ndi mnzake; monga ndakonda inu, kuti inunso mukondane wina ndi mnzake. Mwa ichi adzazindikira onse kuti muli ophunzira anga, ngati muli nacho chikondano wina ndi mnzake.
Ndipo khumi ndi awiriwo anaitana unyinji wa ophunzira, nati, Sikuyenera kuti ife tisiye kulalikira mau a Mulungu ndi kutumikira podyerapo. Chifukwa chake, abale, yang'anani mwa inu amuna asanu ndi awiri a mbiri yabwino, odzala ndi Mzimu ndi nzeru, amene tikawaike asunge ntchito iyi.
Koma mu Yopa munali wophunzira dzina lake Tabita, ndilo kunena Dorika; mkazi ameneyo anadzala ndi ntchito zabwino ndi zachifundo zimene anazichita.
Pakuti ndilakalaka kuonana ndinu, kuti ndikagawire kwa inu mtulo wina wauzimu, kuti inu mukhazikike; ndiko, kuti ine ndikatonthozedwe pamodzi ndi inu, mwa chikhulupiriro cha ife tonse awiri, chanu ndi changa.
Pakuti monga m'thupi limodzi tili nazo ziwalo zambiri, ndipo ziwalo zonsezo sizili nayo ntchito imodzimodzi; chomwecho ife, ndife ambiri, tili thupi limodzi mwa Khristu, ndi ziwalo zinzake, wina ndi wina.
Ndipereka kwa inu Febe, mlongo wathu, ndiye mtumiki wamkazi wa Mpingo wa Ambuye wa ku Kenkrea; Moni kwa Apelesi, wovomerezedwayo mwa Khristu. Moni iwo a kwa Aristobulo. Moni kwa Herodiono, mbale wanga. Moni iwo a kwa Narkiso, amene ali mwa Ambuye. Moni kwa Trifena, ndi Trifosa amene agwiritsa ntchito mwa Ambuye. Moni kwa Perisi, wokondedwayo amene anagwiritsa ntchito zambiri mwa Ambuye. Moni kwa Rufu, wosankhidwayo mwa Ambuye, ndi amai wake ndi wanga. Moni kwa Asinkrito, Filegoni, Heremesi, Patrobasi, Herimasi ndi abale amene ali nao. Moni kwa Filologo ndi Juliya, Nereo ndi mlongo wake, ndi Olimpasi, ndi oyera mtima onse ali pamodzi nao. Mupatsane moni wina ndi mnzake ndi kupsompsonana kopatulika. Mipingo yonse ya Khristu ikupatsani moni. Ndipo ndikudandaulirani, abale, yang'anirani iwo akuchita zopatutsana ndi zophunthwitsa, kosalingana ndi chiphunzitsocho munachiphunzira inu; ndipo potolokani pa iwo. Pakuti otere satumikira Ambuye wathu Khristu, koma mimba yao; ndipo ndi mau osalaza ndi osyasyalika asocheretsa mitima ya osalakwa. Pakuti kumvera kwanu kunabuka kwa anthu onse. Chifukwa chake ndikondwera ndi inu; koma ndifuna kuti mukakhale anzeru pa zabwino, koma ozungulidwa pa zoipa. kuti mumlandire iye mwa Ambuye, monga kuyenera oyera mtima, ndi kuti mumthandize m'zinthu zilizonse adzazifuna kwa inu; pakuti iye yekha anali wosungira ambiri, ndi ine ndemwe.
Pakuti monga thupi lili limodzi, nilikhala nazo ziwalo zambiri; koma ziwalo zonse za thupilo, pokhala zambiri, zili thupi limodzi; momwemonso Khristu. Pakutinso mwa Mzimu mmodzi ife tonse tinabatizidwa kulowa m'thupi limodzi, ngakhale Ayuda, ngakhale Agriki, ngakhale akapolo, ngakhale mfulu; ndipo tonse tinamwetsedwa Mzimu mmodzi. Pakutinso thupi silikhala chiwalo chimodzi, koma zambiri.
Koma zinthu zonse zichokera kwa Mulungu amene anatiyanjanitsa kwa Iye yekha mwa Khristu, natipatsa utumiki wa chiyanjanitso; ndiko kunena kuti Mulungu anali mwa Khristu, alinkuyanjanitsa dziko lapansi kwa Iye yekha, osawawerengera zolakwa zao; ndipo anaikiza kwa ife mau a chiyanjanitso.
Ndikudandaulirani inu tsono, ine wandende mwa Ambuye, muyende koyenera maitanidwe amene munaitanidwa nao,
Ndiyamika Mulungu wanga pokumbukira inu ponse; ndi kukhala nacho inu chilimbano chomwechi mudachiona mwa ine, nimukumva tsopano chili mwa ine. nthawi zonse m'pembedzero langa lonse la kwa inu nonse ndichita pembedzerolo ndi kukondwera, chifukwa cha chiyanjano chanu chakuthandizira Uthenga Wabwino, kuyambira tsiku loyambalo, kufikira tsopano lino;
Koma ndinayesa nkofunika kutuma kwa inu Epafrodito mbaleyo, ndiye wantchito mnzanga ndi msilikali mnzanga, ndiye mtumwi wanu, ndi wonditumikira pa chosowa changa; popeza anali wolakalaka inu nonse, navutika mtima chifukwa mudamva kuti anadwala. Pakutinso anadwaladi pafupi imfa; komatu Mulungu anamchitira chifundo; koma si iye yekha, komatu inenso, kuti ndisakhale nacho chisoni chionjezereonjezere. Chifukwa chake ndamtuma iye chifulumizire, kuti pakumuona mukakondwerenso, ndi inenso chindichepere chisoni. Chifukwa chake mumlandire mwa Ambuye, ndi chimwemwe chonse; nimuchitire ulemu oterewa; musachite kanthu monga mwa chotetana, kapena monga mwa ulemerero wopanda pake, komatu ndi kudzichepetsa mtima, yense ayese anzake omposa iye mwini; pakuti chifukwa cha ntchito ya Khristu anafikira pafupi imfa, wosasamalira moyo wake, kuti akakwaniritse chiperewero cha utumiki wanu wa kwa ine.
amene timlalikira ife, ndi kuchenjeza munthu aliyense ndi kuphunzitsa munthu aliyense mu nzeru zonse, kuti tionetsere munthu aliyense wamphumphu mwa Khristu; kuchita ichi ndidzivutitsa ndi kuyesetsa monga mwa machitidwe ake akuchita mwa ine ndi mphamvu.
Komatu tinakhala ofatsa pakati pa inu, monga m'mene mlezi afukata ana ake a iye yekha;
wa mbiri ya ntchito zabwino; ngati walera ana, ngati wachereza alendo, ngati adasambitsa mapazi a oyera mtima, ngati wathandiza osautsidwa, ngati anatsatadi ntchito zonse zabwino.
amene anadzipereka yekha m'malo mwa ife, kuti akatiombole ife kuzoipa zonse, nakadziyeretsere yekha anthu akhale ake enieni, achangu pa ntchito zokoma.
Ndipo Mosetu anali wokhulupirika m'nyumba yake yonse, monga mnyamata, achitire umboni izi zidzalankhulidwazi;
ndipo tiganizirane wina ndi mnzake kuti tifulumizane ku chikondano ndi ntchito zabwino,
Khalani akuchita mau, osati akumva okha, ndi kudzinyenga nokha. Pakuti ngati munthu ali wakumva mau, wosati wakuchita, iyeyu afanana ndi munthu wakuyang'anira nkhope yake ya chibadwidwe chake m'kalirole; pakuti wadziyang'anira yekha, nachoka, naiwala pompaja nali wotani. Koma iye wakupenyerera m'lamulo langwiro, ndilo laufulu, natero chipenyerere, ameneyo, posakhala wakumva wakuiwala, komatu wakuchita ntchito, adzakhala wodala m'kuchita kwake.
Koma inu ndinu mbadwa yosankhika, ansembe achifumu, mtundu woyera mtima, anthu a mwini wake, kotero kuti mukalalikire zoposazo za Iye amene anakuitanani mutuluke mumdima, mulowe kuunika kwake kodabwitsa;
akalankhula wina, alankhule ngati manenedwe a Mulungu; wina akatumikira, achite ngati mu mphamvu imene Mulungu ampatsa, kuti m'zonse Mulungu alemekezedwe mwa Yesu Khristu, amene ali nao ulemerero ndi mphamvu kunthawi za nthawi. Amen.
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? Tiana, tisakonde ndi mau, kapena ndi lilime, komatu ndi kuchita ndi m'choonadi.
Anagawagawa, anapatsa aumphawi; chilungamo chake chikhalitsa kosatha; nyanga yake idzakwezeka ndi ulemu.
Kodi kumeneku si kusala kudya kumene ndinakusankha: kumasula nsinga za zoipa, ndi kumasula zomanga goli, ndi kuleka otsenderezedwa amuke mfulu, ndi kuti muthyole magoli onse? Kodi si ndiko kupatsa chakudya chako kwa anjala, ndi kuti ubwere nao kunyumba kwako aumphawi otayika? Pakuona wamaliseche kuti umveke, ndi kuti usadzibisire wekha a chibale chako?
Inu ndinu mchere wa dziko lapansi; koma mcherewo ngati ukasukuluka, adzaukoleretsa ndi chiyani? Pamenepo sungakwanirenso kanthu konse, koma kuti ukaponyedwe kunja, nupondedwe ndi anthu. 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 pamene mulikupita lalikani kuti, Ufumu wa Kumwamba wayandikira. Chiritsani akudwala, ukitsani akufa, konzani akhate, tulutsani ziwanda: munalandira kwaulere, patsani kwaulere.
Ndiponso ndinena kwa inu kuti ngati awiri a inu avomerezana pansi pano chinthu chilichonse akachipempha, Atate wanga wa Kumwamba adzawachitira. Ndipo pamene Yesu anaitana kamwana, anakaimitsa pakati pao, Pakuti kumene kuli awiri kapena atatu asonkhanira m'dzina langa, ndili komweko pakati pao.
Mzimu wa Ambuye uli pa Ine, chifukwa chake Iye anandidzoza Ine ndiuze anthu osauka Uthenga Wabwino: anandituma Ine kulalikira am'nsinga mamasulidwe, ndi akhungu kuti apenyanso, kutulutsa ndi ufulu ophwanyika,
Ndipo unyinji wa iwo akukhulupirira anali wa mtima umodzi ndi moyo umodzi; ndipo sananene mmodzi kuti kanthu ka chuma anali nacho ndi kake ka iye yekha; koma anali nazo zonse zodyerana.
