VaRoma 13
1 Munhu wose anofanira kuzviisa pasi pavatungamiri venyika, nokuti hakuna simba risina kubva kuna Mwari. Vane simba rokutonga vakaiswapo naMwari.
Khila nafsi jhijhiaghe ni bhutii ni kwa mamlaka gha panani, kwa kujha ghajhelepi mamlaka isipokujha jhihomili kwa K'yara. Ni mamlaka syasijhele sibhekibhu ni K'yara.
2 Saka naizvozvo, anoramba kuteerera vari kutonga, ari kumukira zvakaiswapo naMwari, uye vanoita izvi vanozvitsvagira kutongwa.
Henu jhaip'enga mamlaka ejhuip'enga amri jha K'yara; ni bhala ambabho bhakajhip'enga bhibetakupokela hukumu panani pa bhene.
3 Nokuti vatongi havatyisi vaya vanoita zvakanaka, asi vanotyisa vaya vanoita zvakaipa. Unoda kusunungurwa here kuti usatya ane simba rokutonga? Ipapo ita zvakanaka uye achakurumbidza.
Kwa kujha bhatawala sio tishio kwa bhabhibhomba manofu, bali kwa bhabhibhomba mabhibhi. Je einoghela kutokutila mamlaka? Bhombayi ghaghajhele manofu, na wibeta kusifibhwa nakhu.
4 Nokuti iye muranda waMwari anofanira kuti akuitire zvakanaka. Asi kana ukaita zvakaipa, itya, nokuti iye haabati munondo pasina. Nokuti iye ndiye muranda waMwari, mutumwa wokutsamwa, anoranga vaiti vezvakaipa.
Kwa kujha ndo mtumishi ghwa K'yara kwa bhebhe ndabha jha manofu. Bali kama wibetakubhomba ghaghajhele mabhibhi, tilayi kwa kujha ip'enda lepi bhupanga, bila sababu. Kwa kujha ndo mtumishi ghwa K'yara, jhailipa kisasi kwa ghadhabu panani pa jhola jhaibhomba mabhibhi.
5 Naizvozvo, zvinokosha kuzviisa pasi pavabati, kwete nokuti tinotya kurangwa chete, asi nokuda kwehanawo.
Henu jhilondeka kutii, sio tu kwa ndabha jha ghadhabu, bali kabhele kwandabha jha dhamiri.
6 Ndokusaka muchiripawo mitero, nokuti vabati varanda vaMwari, vanopa nguva yavo yose pakutonga.
Kwa ndabha ejhe kahele ghwilepa kodi. Kwa kujha bhenye mamlaka ndo bhatumishi bha K'yara, ambabho bhijhendelela kubhomba lijambo e'le.
7 Ripirai vose vamunofanira kuripira: Kana uri mutero, ripai mutero; kana iri miripo, ngairipwe, kana kuri kutya, kuna vanofanira kutyiwa, kana rwuri rukudzo, kuna vanofanira kukudzwa.
Mubhalepayi khila mmonga kya akabamela: kodi jhailondeka kodi; ushuru kwa jhailondeka ushuru hofu kwa jhailondeka hofu; lutengo kwa jhailondeka litengo.
8 Musava nechikwereti kumunhu, kunze kwechikwereti chorudo mumwe kuno mumwe, nokuti anoda mumwe azadzisa murayiro.
Musidaibhu ni munu khenu kyokyoha, isipokujha kuganana jhomu kwa jhomu. Kwa kujha muene jha an'ganili jirani ghwa muene atimisi sheria.
9 Nokuti mirayiro inoti, “Usaita upombwe,” “Usauraya,” “Usaba”, “Usachiva,” uye kana mumwe murayiro upi noupi zvawo ungavako, zvakaunganidzwa pamutemo unoti, “Ida muvakidzani wako sezvaunozvida iwe.”
Kwa kujha, “Wibetalepi kuzini, kukhoma, wibetalepi kuheja, wibetalepi kunoghela,” na kama ijhe amri jhenge kabhele, jhijumlisibhu mu senetsi ejhe: “Wibetakun'gana jirani ghwa jhobhi kama bhebhe ghwe muene.”
10 Rudo haruitiri muvakidzani zvakaipa. Naizvozvo rudo runozadzisa murayiro.
Luganu lukandhuru lepi jirani ghwa munu ndo bhukamilifu bhwa sheria.
11 Uye itai izvi, muchinzwisisa nguva ino. Nguva yasvika zvino yokuti mupepuke kubva kuhope, nokuti ruponeso rwedu rwava pedyo zvino kupfuura zuva ratakatanga kutenda.
Kwa ndabha ejhe, mumanyili wakati, kujha tayari bhwakati bhwa kuhoma mu ligono. Kwa kujha bhwokovu bhwa jhotu bhukaribili nesu jha bhwakati bhola bhwatwakyeriri hosi.
12 Usiku hwava kutopfuura; kwava kutoedza. Saka ngatirasei mabasa edu erima uye tipfeke nhumbi dzokurwa dzechiedza.
Kinu kijhendelili, ni musi bhukaribili. Na tubhekayi palubhafu matendo gha ngisi, na tufwalayi silaha sya nuru.
13 Ngatiraramei zvakafanira mararamiro apamasikati, tisingaiti kutamba kwakaipa uye nokudhakwa, kana upombwe, kana utere, kana gakava kana godo.
Na tulotayi pamonga, kama mu nuru, sio sherehe sya bhuovu au bhulefi. Na tusikhesiajhi mu zinaa au tamaa jhajhibhuwesya lepi kuleka, ni sio mu fitina au bhuifu.
14 Asi pfekai Ishe Jesu Kristu, uye musatsvaka kufadza nyama pakuchiva kwayo.
Bali tumfwalayi Bwana Yesu Kristu, na tusibheki nafasi kwa ndabha jha mb'el'e, kwa tamaa syake.
