< 2 VaKorinde 6 >
1 Savashandi pamwe chete naMwari tinokukurudzirai kuti murege kugamuchira nyasha dzaMwari pasina.
Su patuwera watenda lihengu pamuhera na Mlungu, tuwaluwani mwanki manemu ga Mlungu namleka gagamiri hera.
2 Nokuti iye anoti, “Ndakakunzwa panguva yenyasha dzangu, uye pazuva roruponeso ndakakubatsira.” Ndinokuudzai, zvino ndiyo nguva yenyasha dzaMwari, zvino ndiyo nguva yoruponeso.
Mlungu kalonga hangu, “Mushipindi sha manemu gangu nuwapikaniriti Mulishaka lya ulopoziya nuwatangiti.” Nuwagambireni, vinu ndo shipindi sha upendelewu wa Mlungu, vinu ndo lishaka lya kulopoziwa!
3 Hatiisi chigumbuso munzira yomunhu, kuti ushumiri hwedu hurege kuzvidzwa.
Tufira ndiri kuwera shileweleru kwa muntu yoseri mushitwatira shoseri, su tutenda hangu toziya lihengu lyetu naliwoneka shintu ndiri kwa wantu.
4 Asi savaranda vaMwari tinozvirumbidza pane zvakanaka munzira dzose: mukutsungirira kukuru, mumatambudziko, mukuomerwa, uye nemunhamo;
Kumbiti mukila shintu shatutenda ilanguziya twenga ndo wantumintumi wa Mlungu kwa kuhepelera, kutabika na ntabika zyoseri.
5 mukurohwa, kusungwa nomubope; mukushanda zvakaoma, mukusavata nokushayiwa zvokudya;
Tukomitwi, watutuliti mshibetubetu, tuboleritwi paweru na vipinga, tutenda lihengu likamala na tukala masu na tuliya ndiri shiboga.
6 mukuchena, kunzwisisa, mwoyo murefu nengoni muMweya Mutsvene uye nomurudo rwechokwadi;
Twenga tulilanguziya kuwera wantumintumi wa Mlungu kwa uherepa wa moyu na umaniziya, kwa uhepelera na kwa maheri na Rohu Mnanagala na kwa mafiliru yagahera ufyangu.
7 mushoko rechokwadi nomusimba raMwari; nenhumbi dzokurwa nadzo dzokururama kuruoko rworudyi nokuruboshwe,
Kwa ujumbi wa nakaka na kwa makakala ga Mlungu. Kutendwa waheri kulongolu kwa Mlungu ndo silaha yatwenga muwega wa kumliwu na kumshigi.
8 mukukudzwa nomukusakudzwa, muguhu rakaipa neguhu rakanaka; tiri vechokwadi, asi tichionekwa savanyengeri;
Twakala kupata ligoya na kubeziwa, kulongwa na kuzyumwa. Wankutuwona gambira yawapaya, kumbiti twankulonga nakaka,
9 tinozivikanwa tichionekwa setisingazivikanwi; tinofa, asi tichiramba tichirarama, tinorohwa asi hatifi;
Handa yawamanikana ndiri, kumbiti tumanikana na woseri, gambira yawahowiti, kumbiti handa ntambu yamtuwona twenga wakomu nentu. Tukomitwi kumbiti tulagwa ndiri.
10 savanochema, asi tichigara tichifara; savarombo, asi tichipfumisa vazhinji; setisina chinhu, asi tinazvo zvose.
Tuwoneka twana utama, kumbiti twankunemelera mashaka goseri, tuwonikana handa wahushu, patuwapanana wantu wamonga ulunda, tuwoneka twana shintu ndiri kumbiti twana vintu vyoseri.
11 Takataura kwamuri pachena, imi vaKorinde, uye takazarura mwoyo yedu kwamuri.
Mwenga walongu wayetu Wakorintu! Tuwagambiriti goseri pota kufifa na myoyu yatwenga ivuguka kwamwenga.
12 Hatisi kukunyimai rudo rwedu, asi imi munotinyima rwenyu.
Twenga ndiri yatutatiti myoyu yetu kwa mwenga, kumbiti mwenga ndo yamutatiti myoyu yenu kwatwenga.
13 Sokutsinhana kwakanaka, ndinotaura sokuvana vangu, zaruraiwo mwoyo yenyu.
Vinu nankulonga na mwenga gambira wana waneni, mtuli myoyu yamwenga lupalahera gambira twenga ntambu yatutenditi.
14 Musasungwa zvisina kufanira pajoko rimwe chete navasingatendi. Nokuti kururama kungava noukama hweiko nokusarurama? Kana kuti chiedza chingawadzana seiko nerima?
Namtenda pamuhera na wantu yawamjimira ndiri Mlungu, hashi, maheri na madoda galikala pamuhera? Ulangala na nditi viweza hashi kulikala pamuhera?
15 Ko, Kristu anganzwanana seiko naBheriari? Ko, mutendi angava nomugove weiko neasingatendi?
Hangu Kristu kaweza hashi kulikala pamuhera na Shetani? Hashi, muntu yakamwamini Mlungu na yakamwamini ndiri Mlungu wawera na uganja gaa?
16 Ko, temberi yaMwari ingatenderana seiko nezvifananidzo? Nokuti tiri temberi yaMwari mupenyu. Sezvakarehwa naMwari, achiti, “Ndichagara pakati pavo ndigofamba navo, uye ndichava Mwari wavo, ivo vagova vanhu vangu.”
Hashi, numba ya Mlungu iwera na uganja gaa na shinyagu shashiguyirwa na wantu? Toziya twenga twa numba ya Mlungu yakawera mkomu. Handa Mlungu mweni ntambu yakalongiti, “Hanulikali nawomberi na kutyanga mngati mwawu na kulikala pakati pawu, Naneni hanweri Mlungu gwawu, Nawomberi hawaweri wantu waneni.”
17 “‘Saka budai mubve pakati pavo uye muzvitsaure,’ ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe. ‘Musabata chinhu chine tsvina, ini ndigokugamuchirai.’”
Hangu Mtuwa kalonga, “Muwuki pakati pawu, Mulibaguli nawomberi. Namshinkula shintu shihumba, Na neni hanuwajimili.”
18 “‘Ndichava baba venyu, uye imi muchava vanakomana vangu navanasikana vangu,’ ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Wamasimba Ose.”
Mtuwa yakawera na likakala kalonga, “Neni hanweri Tati gwenu, Na mwenga hamuweri wana waneni, wapalu na wadala.”
