13 Na mmanganyanji pumwalinginji nng'wilenje, kwa ligongo lya yambi yenunji na gwangajaluka gwenunji. Ikabheje nnaino a Nnungu bhashikumpanganga gumi pamo na a Kilishitu, nikutuleshelela yambi yetu yowe,
Lani lifile eziphambekweni lokungasoki kwenyama yenu, ulenze laphila kanye laye, eselithethelele zonke iziphambeko,
14 gubhaputile malobhe gajandikwe ga kutulugula, na ukumu jakwe nikujishoya jinapagwe kabhili, kwa kujikomela munshalabha.

16 Kwa nneyo, bhai, mundu ananng'ukumulanje kwa ligongo lya shalya, eu ya papila, eu kwa ligongo lya shikukuu, eu ga mwei gwa ambi, eu ga lyubha lya pumulila.
Ngakho kakungabi khona olilahla ekudleni kumbe ekunatheni, loba endabeni yomkhosi loba eyokuthwasa kwenyanga kumbe eyamasabatha;
17 Pabha yeneyo ni ilanda ya indu ikwiya, ikabhe shindu ukoto, ni a Kilishitu.
eziyisithunzi sezinto ezizayo, kodwa umzimba ungokaKristu.
18 Mundu jojowe ananng'ukumulanje, alikwiitemba kwiitimalika akuno ali kwaatindibhalila ashimalaika. Mundu malinga jwenejo anakagulila agamii yakwe, alikwiitapa kwa lunda lwake lwa shigundu,
Kakungabi lamuntu olemuka umvuzo wenu ngobuqili, ethanda ukuzenza othobekileyo lokukhonza izingilosi, engena ezintweni angazibonanga, ezikhukhumeza ngeze ngengqondo yenyama yakhe,
19 jwene mundujo ashikwaaleka a Kilishitu bhali ntwe gwa shiilusho. Nkulongoywa na a Kilishitu, shiilu showe shinaliywa na lundanywa pamo kwa ibhalo na minanga jakwe, penepo shiilu shinakula, malinga shibhapinga a Nnungu.
njalo engabambi iNhloko, umzimba wonke ngamalunga lemisipha usondliwa njalo uhlanganiswa ngayo, ukhula ngokukhula kukaNkulunkulu.
20 Bhai, ibhaga mmanganyanji mwashinkuwanganga pamo na a Kilishitu na gombolwa mmashili ga bhaatagwala bha pa shilambolyo, bhai, kwa nndi tama kabhili mbuti bhandu bha pa shilambolyo, nnibhishilwanga ibhagu?
Ngakho uba lafa kanye loKristu emfundisweni zakuqala zomhlaba, libophekeleni ngemikhuba ngokungathi liphila elizweni,
21 “Eti nnakamulanje ashi, eu nnapayanje ashi, eu nnakwayanje ashi!”
(ungabambi, unganambithi, ungathinti,
22 Gene gowego ni ga indu ya angabhanika, gali malajilo na majiganyo ga bhandunjipe.
ezizaphela zonke ngokusetshenziswa) njengokwemilayo lezimfundiso zabantu?
23 Yeneyo puibhoneka mbuti ya lunda kwa namuna ja tindibhalila jimwiibhishilenje mwashaayenenji, nkwiitimalika na nkushipoteka shiilu na ilokoli yakwe, ikabheje ikapwaa shindu nkulekaya ilokoli ya shiilu.
Ezilesimo senhlakanipho ekukhonzeni kokuzenzela lekuzithobeni lekuphatheni nzima umzimba, kakusizi lutho ukumelana lokusuthisa inyama.
