Tsono choyamba ndikukupemphani kuti mupempherere anthu onse. Mapemphero anu akhale opemba, opempha, opempherera ena ndi oyamika.
2 pamadzimambo nevese vari panzvimbo dzakakwirira kuti tirarame upenyu hwerugare nerunyararo pakunamata Mwari kwese nerukudzo;
Mupempherere mafumu ndi onse aulamuliro, kuti tikhale moyo wamtendere ndi bata, woopa Mulungu ndi oyera mtima.
3 nokuti izvi zvakanaka uye zvinogamuchirwa pamberi paMwari Muponesi wedu,
Izi ndi zabwino ndipo zimakondweretsa Mulungu Mpulumutsi wathu,
4 uyo anoda kuti vanhu vese vaponeswe uye vasvike pakuziva chokwadi.
amene amafuna kuti anthu onse apulumutsidwe ndipo kuti adziwe choonadi.
5 Nokuti kuna Mwari umwe, nemurevereri umwe pakati paMwari nevanhu, ndiye munhu Kristu Jesu,
Pakuti pali Mulungu mmodzi yekha ndi Mʼkhalapakati mmodzi yekha pakati pa Mulungu ndi anthu, munthu uja Khristu Yesu.
6 wakazvipa iye kuva rudzikunuro rwevese, chive chapupu panguva dzakafanira,
Iyeyu anadzipereka kukhala dipo lowombolera anthu onse. Umenewu ndi umboni umene waperekedwa mu nthawi yake yoyenera.
7 icho chandagadzirwa ini kuva muparidzi nemuapositori (ndinoreva chokwadi muna Kristu, handitauri nhema), mudzidzisi wevahedheni parutendo nechokwadi.
Nʼchifukwa chake anandisankha kukhala mlaliki ndiponso mtumwi wophunzitsa anthu a mitundu ina mawu achikhulupiriro choona. Sindikunama ayi, ndikunena zoona.
8 Naizvozvo ndinoshuva kuti varume vanyengetere panzvimbo dzese, vachisimudza maoko matsvene, pasina kutsamwa nekupikisana.
Choncho ndikufuna kuti paliponse popemphera, amuna azikweza manja awo kwa Mulungu mopanda mkwiyo kapena kukangana.
9 Saizvozvowo vakadzi vazvishongedze nezvipfeko zvakafanira, vane kunyara nekuzvidzora, kwete nevhudzi rakarukwa, kana goridhe, kana maparera, kana nguvo dzinodhura,
Ndikufunanso kuti amayi azivala mwaulemu, modzilemekeza ndi moyenera. Adzikongoletse koma osati ndi tsitsi loluka mowonjeza muyeso kapena zokongoletsa zagolide kapena mikanda yamtengowapatali kapena ndi zovala zamtengowapatali.
10 asi, zvakafanira vakadzi vanoti vanoshumira Mwari, nemabasa akanaka.
Koma adzikongoletse ndi ntchito zabwino zoyenera mayi wopembedza Mulungu.
11 Mukadzi ngaadzidze mukunyarara nekuzvininipisa kwese.
Amayi azikhala chete pophunzitsidwa ndi mtima ogonjera kwathunthu.
12 Asi handitenderi mukadzi kuti adzidzise, kana kuti ave nesimba pamusoro pemurume, asi ave mukunyarara.
Ine sindikulola kuti amayi aziphunzitsa kapena kulamulira amuna; koma akhale chete.
13 Nokuti Adhamu wakatanga kuumbwa, tevere Evha;
Pakuti Adamu ndiye anayamba kupangidwa kenaka Hava.
14 naAdhamu haana kunyengerwa, asi mukadzi anyengerwa wakava mukudarika,
Ndipo Adamu si amene ananyengedwa koma mkazi ndiye amene ananyengedwa nachimwa.
15 asi achaponeswa kubudikidza nekubereka vana, kana vachirambira murutendo nerudo neutsvene pamwe nekuzvidzora.
Ndipo mkazi adzapulumutsidwa pobereka mwana ngati apitiriza kukhala mʼchikhulupiriro, mʼchikondi ndi mʼkuyera mtima pamodzi ndi kudzichepetsa konse.
