Usenga wa Kiristu iyawambighwe mna msalaba
1 Ndughu tsangu, hanitsile kuna mwemwe siwapeteleni bae ukweli we usenga we Imulungu kwa kulangusa ka nene nomanya ng'ani au kwa nzewele tse iwanu. 2 Mana hanikalile na mwemwe sibamile bae kumanya chinu chingi ila kummanya Yesu Kiristu yaliyeka, ayula iyawambighwe mna msalaba. 3 Hanitsile kuna mwemwe, tsanahela ngupfu, tsanidedema ghendo kwa kupfuka. 4 Usenga wangu na kupeta kwangu ng'akukalile bae kwa malonga gha nzewele ghane kukwegha iwanu, ila tsaghana ingupfu ye Ghumuhe we Imulungu. 5 Tsanenda apfi ili ukutoghola kwenu kuleke kukala mne hekima tse iwanu, ila ikale mne ngupfu ye Imulungu.
Inzewele ye Imulungu
6 Twopeta usenga we hekima kwa awala iwakomale mne ukutoghola, lekeni si ihekima ye muisi amu bae, wala si ihekima ye iwakulu we muisi amu iwakwaghitsa ngupfu. 7 Nowapetela nzewele ye Imulungu iipfisighwe, iyaisaghule kwaajili ye ukwingila mne utunitso wake hata ng'ana isi yose ilumbighwe. 8 Kuduhu iwakulu we isi yose iwamanyile nzewele ino. Wang'aimanyile wang'alekile kumuwamba mna msalaba Imtwatsa we utunitso. 9 Lekeni ka Ghamaandiko pfagholonga,
“Aghala ing'aghoneke wala kuhulikighwa,
aghala ng'ana ghakwalangulighwe mmoyo mwe imunu,
igho ghagho Imulungu ghawekile awala iwomnoghela.”
10 Lekeni Imulungu katughubulila chinu acho kubitila Ghumuhe Mwenzeluka. Kwaapfila Ghumuhe Mwenzeluka kosakula chila chinu hata ipfinu ipfili mghati mwe Imulungu. 11 Yuhi iyodaha kumanya aghala ighali mghati mwe imunu ka si muhe iuli mghati mwake mwenyegho? Pfipfila kuduhu iyomanya ipfinu pfe Imulungu ila Ghumuhe we Imulungu. 12 Ng'atubokele bae muhe we iisi, ila tubokela Ghumuhe iyatumighwe ne Imulungu ili tumanye aghala ghose ghatwing'ighwe hela ne Imulungu.
13 Apfo ng'atulonga bae kwe tsimbutsi itsilangulitsighwe ne nzewele tse iwanu, ila twolonga kwe tsimbutsi itsilangulitsighwe ne Ghumuhe, twolonga ipfinu pfa umuhe wa ukweli kwa awala iwane Ghumuhe. 14 Imunu yalihela Ghumuhe we Imulungu ng'odaha bae kubokela aghala igholawa kwe Imulungu, kwaapfila ghakoneka gha ubotsi kuna yeye, na ng'oghatanga bae, kwaapfila ghomanyika kwa kwapfilighwa ne Ghumuhe. 15 Lekeni imunu wowose yane Ghumuhe we Imulungu, kodaha kughatanga ghose, na kuduhu imunu iyodaha kumuhigha. 16 Ka Ghamaandiko pfagholonga,
“Yuhi yatsimanyile tsimbutsi tse Imtwatsa?
Yuhi yodaha kumlangulitsa Imtwatsa?” Lekeni twetwe tuna tsimbutsi tse Kiristu.
