1 Ni misusuweza cwale, bakwetu, ke chishemo cha Ireeza, kuti mulete mibili yenu ubu chitabelo chi hala, chi jolola, chi tambulwa kwa Ireeza. Uwu njo mutendo wenu usakahala.
2 Kanji muyendeleli ne inu inkanda, kono mube ba chinchitwe chobuhya bwa mano enu. Mutende ichi kuti mwi zibe zilotu, zitambuleha, ni kusaka kushiyeme kwe Ireeza. (aiōn )
3 Kakuti ni wamba, chebaka lye chishemo icho chiba kuhewa kwangu, kuti yense wina mukati kenu kanji bazezi kuti ba bobutokwa ahulu kuhita mubaswanela kuhupulela. Kusibulyo, baswanela kuhupula che nzila yo butali, ubu sina Ireeza habahi kuzumwi ni zumwi itikanyo ye tumelo.
4 Sina hatwina zilama zingi mu mubili wonke, kono kahena kuti zilama zonse zina musebezi uswana.
5 Mwi nzila iswana, inswe tubangi tumubili umwina mwa Kresite, mi tuchilama chimwina kuzumwi ni zumwi.
6 Twina impo zi chinchana cho kuya ke chishemo chi tu bahewa. Haiba impo yo zumwi yo butanikizi, kutendahale bulyo kuya nche ntikanyezo ye ntumelo yakwe.
7 Haiba impo yonzumwi ku sebeza, mumu siye a sebeze. Haiba zumwi wina impo yo kuluta, mumusiye a lute.
8 Haiba zumwi impo yakwe kususuweza, mumusiye a susuweze. Haiba zumwi impo yakwe kuha, mumusiye atende bulyo chekulo yonke. Haiba zumwi impo yakwe ku yendisa, musiye ayendise che ntokomelo. Haiba zumwi impo yakwe kutondeza chishemo, musiye achite cho kusanga.
9 Musiye ilato libe nikusena kuliha. Mukane cheli chibi; mukwatilile icho chilotu.
10 Kuamana nilato lya bamwetu, mube nilato ku zumwi ni zumwi. Kuamana ni kute, mukute zumwi ku zumwi.
11 Kuamana ni ntundamo hande, kanji muhakanyehi. Kuamana ni luhuho, mu nyolelwe. Kuamana ni Simwe, mumu tendele.
12 Musange mwi nsepo imwina nayo kuamana ni zisikezite. Mulisante muma sikuluko enu. Muzwile habusu ku lapela.
13 Muliyabile mu zisakahala kuba zumine. Musake inzila zingi zo kutondeza ikamuhelo.
14 Mufuyaule abo bami nyandisa; mufuyaule mi kanji mukuti.
15 Musange nabo basangite; mulile nabo balila.
16 Mube bo muhupulo uswana ku zumwi ni zumwi. Kanji muhupuli mwi nzila zo kulikumusa, kono mutambule bantu basali wanini. Kanji mutalifi mumi hupulo yenu mubene.
17 Kanji mubozekezi zumwi bubi cho bubi. Mutende bulotu habusu bwabantu bonse.
18 Haiba kuoleka, sina ha kulitingite henu, muhale mwi nkozo ni bantu bonse.
19 Kanji muli lwisi mubene, basakwa, kono muhe inzila kubu kali bwa Ireeza. Sina hakuñoletwe, “Kubozekeza nji kwangu; kani lihise; kuwamba Simwine.”
20 “Kono haiba chila chenu chifwile inzala, mu mulisike. Haiba ufwile inyota, mumuhe cho kunwa. haiba ni mutenda inchi, kamu kunganye makala o mulilo hamuntwi wakwe.”
21 Kanji mukomiwa ku bubi, kono mukome bubi cho bulotu.
