Olyanu Mwoyo Mweru kaikila abhweli ati jinsiku jinu jilija abhanu abhandi bhalisiga elikilisha nokutegelesha emyoyo jo obhujigi na ameigisho ga amasambwa.
2 Dzidziso dzakadai dzinouya navaya vanoreva nhema, vane hana dzakapiswa sokunge nesimbi inopisa.
Ameigisho ago agasoka kubhabheyi na bhanu abhatema eyi neyi, obhwiganilisha bhwebhwe obhwochibhwa no omulilo.
3 Vanodzivisa vanhu kuwanana uye vachivarayira kuti varege kudya zvimwe zvokudya, izvo zvakasikwa naMwari kuti zvigamuchirwe nokuvonga naavo vanotenda uye vanoziva chokwadi.
Abhanu abho abhajibhila abhandi okutwala nokubhaganya bhasige okulya ebhilyo bhya imbaga indi, ka Nyamuanga abhiyangile bhilibhwega kwo okusima na abhekilisha na bhanu abhamenya echimali.
4 Nokuti chose chakasikwa naMwari chakanaka, uye hapana chinofanira kuraswa kana chichigamuchirwa nokuvonga,
Kulwokubha bhuli chinu chinu Nyamuanga ayangile nichekisi. Chitaliwo chinu echilya kwo okusima numala nuchilema.
5 nokuti chinoitwa chitsvene neshoko raMwari nokunyengetera.
Kulwokubha echosibhwa no nomusango gwa Nyamuanga na munjila ya lisabhwa.
6 Kana ukadzidzisa hama zvinhu izvi, uchava mushumiri akanaka waKristu Jesu, akarerwa muzvokwadi yokutenda uye nedzidziso yakanaka yawakatevera.
Labha ulibha watula emisango jinu imbele yo omuili, ulibha mukosi wekisi wa Yesu Kristo. Kulwokubha ukusibhwe kwe emisango je elikilisha na ameigisho gekisi ganu walubhile.
7 Siyana nengano dzisina umwari uye nengano dzechembere; asi uzvirovedzere paumwari.
Nawe nuleme jingani jechalo jinu ejendwa na abhagasi abhakokolo. Sigana nago, Iigila awe omwene emisango jo okulamya Nyamuanga.
8 Nokuti kurovedza muviri kunobatsira zvishoma hako asi umwari hunokosha pazvinhu zvose, hune vimbiso kune zvose muupenyu huno uye nomuupenyu hunouya.
Kulwokubha okwitilya kwo omubhili okusakila katyali, tali okulamya Nyamuanga nikwakisi muno ku magambo gona. Kwokubha okuleta omulago gwo obhuwanga mukatungu kanu na kalia akaja.
9 Iri ishoko rechokwadi rinofanira kutendwa zvizere
Obhwaiki bhunu nibhwachimali na nikisi bhukekilisibhwa chimali mali.
10 uye nokuda kwaizvozvi tinoshingaira nokurwa, nokuti takaisa tariro yedu muna Mwari mupenyu, anova ndiye muponesi wavanhu vose uye zvikuru sei vaya vanotenda.
Kulwokubha kulwa insonga inu echinyakilila nokukola emilimu kwa amanaga muno. Kulwokubha chili no obhuigi ku Nyamuanga owo obhulame, niwe omwelusi wa abhanu bhona, muno muno bhanu bhekilisishe.
11 Rayira uye udzidzise zvinhu izvi.
Ugaike no okugeigisha amagambo ganu.
12 Ngakurege kuva nomunhu anokuzvidza nokuda kwouduku hwako, asi uve muenzaniso kuvatendi mukutaura, muupenyu, murudo, mukutenda uye napakuchena kwomwoyo.
Omunu wona wona asiga okukugaya ati uli musigaji. Taki ubhe chijejekanyo cha bhona bhanu abhekilisha, kunyaika, intungwa, elyenda, obwekisi, no obhwichumi.
13 Kusvikira ndauya, shingaira pakuverenga Rugwaro kukereke, kuparidza nokudzidzisa.
Ubhega nusoma, ubhega nugonya, no okwiigisha okukingila ao nilijila.
14 Usarega kushandisa chipo chako, chakapiwa kwauri kubudikidza neshoko rechiprofita pawakaiswa maoko pamusoro navakuru.
Wasiga kugaya echiyanwa chinu chili munda yao, chinu wayabhilwe okusoka kubhulagi, kwo okutulilwako amabhoko na abhakaluka.
15 Shingaira pazvinhu izvi, uzviite nomwoyo wako wose, kuitira kuti munhu wose aone kupfuurira mberi kwako.
Ugayane echibhalo amagambo ganu. Lubhilisha amagambo ago mubhulame bhwao koleleki okukula kwao kumenyekane kutyo mubhanu bhona.
16 Uzvichengete kwazvo iwe nedzidziso yako. Utsungirire pazviri, nokuti kana ukazviita, uchazviponesa iwe navanokunzwa.
