\v 21 Emwe one, mu mwanya gumwi kwaliga muli bhagenyi ku Nyamuanga na mwaliga muli bhasoko bhaye mu bhwenge na mu bhikolwa bhibhibhi.
\v 23 mbe mukagendelela mu likilisha, lwa kutyo mwalumatanyibhwe ni mukomela, nolwo obhutasosibhwao no kusilwa kula mu kusoka mu liikanya lyo bhubhasi elyo musango gwo bhwana gunu mwonguywe. Gunu nigwo omusango gwo bhwana gunu gwalasibhwe ku bhuli munu unu ayangilwe emwalo yo lwile. Gunu nigwo omusango gwo bhwana gunu kugwo anye, Paulo, mwabhee mukosi.
\v 24 Woli enikondelelwa jinyako Jani kulwa ingulu yemwe. Nanye enikumisha mu mubhili gwani chinu chinkeyeye kulwa jinyako ja Kristo kulwa ingulu yo mubhili gwaye, gunu guli Kanisa.
\v 25 Anye nili mukosi wa likanisa linu, kisi-kisi no bhukosi bhunu nayanilwe okusoka ku Nyamuanga kulwa ingulu yemwe, okwijusha omusango gwa Nyamuanga.
\v 26 Chinu nicho echimali cha imbisike inu yaliga iselekelwe mu miyaka myafu na ku maimbo gona. Mbe nawe woli yasuluywe ku bhona bhanu abhekilisha mu mwene.
\v 27 Ni ku bhaliya bhanu Nyamuanga aga endele okusulula kutyo bhuli obhunibhi bhwa likusho elya imbisike ye chimali inu agati ya Maanga. Ni ati Kristo abhalimo emwe, obhubhasi bhwa likusho linu elija.
\v 28 Unu niwe echimulasha. Nichibhekengya bhuli munu, no kumwiigisha bhuli munu kwo bhwengeso bhwona, koleleki ati chimulete bhuli munu akumiye mu Kristo.
\v 29 Ingulu ya ganu, anye enikomesha no kwilwanilila okulubhana na managa gaye ganu agakola emilimu munda yani mu bhutulo.
\v 1 Kwo kubha enenda mumenyele lwa kutyo nili na jinyako nyafu ingulu yemwe, ku bhona bhanu bhaliyo Laondikia na kubhona bhanu bhachali kubhona obhusu bhwani mu mubhili.
\v 2 Enikola emilimu koleleki ati emioyo jebhwe jitule okusilisibhwa kwo kuletwa amwi mu kwenda na mu bhunibhi bhwona mu bhwafu bhwe chimali mu bhukumiye bhwo bhumenyi mu kuimenya imbisike ye chimali ya Nyamuanga, unu ali Kristo.
\v 3 Mu mwene omwo nimwo bhuli obhubhikilo bhwona obhwo bhwengeso no bhumenyi bhiselekelwe.
\v 5 Nolwo kutyo nitaliwo amwi nemwe mu mubhili, mbe nawe niliwo amwi nemwe mu Mwoyo. Enikondelwa okukolwa obhwitondi bhwemwe bhwe kisi na bhya managa ne likilisha lyemwe mu Kristo.
\v 6 Lwa kutyo mwamulamiye Kristo Latabhugenyi, mulibhatilega mu mumwene.
\v 7 Nimusimbagililega mu mwene, nimubakwega mu mwene, nimusimbagilile mu likilisha lwa kutyo mweigisibhwe, no kubhoywa mu isime nyafu.
\v 8 Mbe nimulole ati munu wona wona asiga kubhakoma kwo bhwenge-bhwenge na masango gatalimo chona chona gali ga bhujigi -jigi okulubhana no bhusimuka bhwa bhana-munu, okulubhana no bhitondi bhwe Chalo, na atali ati okulubhana na Kristo.
\v 9 Kulwo kubha mu mwene obhukumiye bhwona obhwa Nyamuanga bhunu bhulame mu mubhili.
\v 10 Nemwe mwijusibhwe mu mwene. Omwene ni mutwe gwa bhuli bhuinga no bhutulo.
\v 11 Mu mwene one mwatendelwe, kwo lutendo lunu lutakolelwe na mwana-munu mu kusosibhwako omubhili na inyama, mbe nawe ni lutendo olwa Kristo.
\v 12 Mwasikilwe amwi nage mu bhubhatijo. Na munjila ye likilisha mu mwene mwasuluywe kwo bhuinga bhwa Nyamuanga, unu amusuluye okusoka mu bhafuye.
\v 13 Na anu mwaliga mufuye kulwe bhikayo bhyebhwe no okulema okutendwa kwe mibhili nemwe, abhakolele kubha bhaanga amwi nage no kuchisasila ebhikayo bhyeswe bhyona.
\v 14 Asimishe obhwichukisho bhwo libhanja linu lyaliga lyandikilwe, no bhwitondi bhunu bhwaliga bhutasikene neswe. Asosisheo bhona no kubhibhambila ku musalabha.
\v 15 Asosisheo amanaga no bhutungi. Agatee abhwelu no kugakola kubha lumula lwo bhuigi ku njila yo musalabha gwaye.
\v 16 Kulwejo, munu wona wona asiga kubhakoma emwe mu kulya amwi mu kunywa amwi okulubhana na jinsiku eja malya amwi mukubhonekana kwo kwesi, amwi mu nsiku ja isabhatho.
\v 17 Linu ni lilengesi lye misango jinu ejija, mbe nawe omunyumbu ni Kristo.
\v 18 Omunu wona asigakusakulwa omuyelo gwaye mu kuligila no kwikeya no kulamya bhamalaika. Omunu wejabho oyo kengila mu misango jinu alolele no kukongibhwa mu meganilisho gaye ago mubhili.
\v 19 Omwene atakugugwatilila omutwe. Ni kusoka mu mutwe ati omubhili gwona okulabha mu bhyungo bhyaye na mumawa nigugwatana no kugwatanyisibhwa amwi; no kukula kwo bhukusi bhunu obhusosibhwa na Nyamuanga.
\v 20 Alabha mwafuye amwi na Kristo mu ntungwa je Chalo, kawoli kulwaki omulama lwa bhanu abhatongelwa ne Chalo:
\v 22 Ganu gona galagiliywe ingulu yo bhunyamuke bhunu obhuja no bhweselanya, okulubhana na melesho na meigisho ga bhana-munu.
\v 23 Ebhilagilo bhinu bhili no bhwengeso obhwa jidini jinu jikolelwe kwo kwilola no kwikeya na jinyako jo mubhili. Mbe nawe jitana bhugusi bhulambu bhitasikene na inamba yo mubhili.
\v 1 Alabha lindi Nyamuanga abhasigile amwi na Kristo, mbe jemujiyenje emisango jinu jili ingulu enu Kristo enyanjile mu kubhoko kwebhulyo okwa Nyamuanga.
\v 2 Nimwiganilishe okulubhana ne misango jinu jili ingulu, jitali jo okulubhana ne misango je Chalo.
\v 3 kulwo kubha mufuye, no bhulame bhwemwe bhuselekelwe amwi na Kristo ku Nyamuanga.
\v 4 Mu mwanya gunu Kristo alibhonekana, ganu bhuli bhulame bhwemwe, mbe niwo nemwe one mulibhonekana nage mwikusho.
\v 5 Kulwejo nimugete emisango ago gali mu chalo ganu gali, obhulomesi, obhujabhi, inamba mbibhi, okwisigombela kubhibhi, no bhulomesi, ago nigo ibhaada yo kulamya ebhisusano.
\v 6 Ni ingulu ye misango jinu lisungu lya Nyamuanga elija ingulu ya bhana bhanyantogwa.
\v 7 Ni ingulu ye misango jinu emwe one mwalibhatiyemo anu mwejile mwekala agati- yebhwe.
\v 8 Mbe nawe woli ni bhusi-bhusi mugasoshewo amasango ganu gona. Ganu gali, lisungu, ebhinyiga, okwisigombela kubhibhi, okufuma, ne misango mijabhi jinu ejisoka mu minwa nemwe.
\v 9 Mwasiga kujigana abhene kwa abhene, kwo kubha mwamufulile omunu wemwe owa kala ne bhikolwa bhyaye.
\v 10 Mwafwaye munu muyaya, bhunu obhukolwa bhuyaya mu bhumenyi okulubhana ne chijejekanyo cha uliya unu amumogele.
\v 11 Mu bhumenyi bhunu, ataliyo mugiriki amwi Muyaudi, okutendwa no kulemo tendwa, okusoka, unu atali musomi, mugaya, na unu atali mugaya, mbe nawe kukila mwenene Kristo ni misango jona mu jona.
\v 12 Kuti bhasolwa bha Nyamuanga abhelu na abhendwa, nimufwalega obhunyamunu bhwe kisi, obhwila, obhwikeya, obhwololo no kwigumilisha.
\v 13 Nimugegelanega abhene kwa bhene. Nimusasilanega bhuli munu no wejabho. Alabha omunu akabha ne chisango chitasikene no wejabho, amusasile lwa kutyo guliya gwabhee Latabhugenyi abhasasiye emwe.
\v 14 kukila masango ganu gona, nimubhe no kwenda, chinu nicho echikolwa cho bhukumiye.
\v 15 Omulembe gwa Kristo na gubhatangashe mu Mioyo jemwe. Jaliga jili ingulu yo mulembe gunu ati mwabhilikiliywe mu mubhili gumwi. Nimubhega na isime.
\v 16 No musango gwa Kristo gwikalega mwime kwo bhunibhi. Kwo bhengeso bhwona, nimwiigishanye no kuindana abhene kwa bhene mu jabhuli, mu nyimbo, na mu nyimbo ja mu Mioyo. Nimwimbe kwa isime mu Mioyo jemwe ku Nyamuanga.
\v 17 Na chona chona chinu okukolwa, mu misango amwi mu bhikolwa, nimukolega jona mwisina lya Latabhugenyi Yesu. Mumuyane isime Nyamuanga Lata okulabha ku mwene.
\v 10 Aristarko, omubhoywa wejasu, kabhakesha, one na Marko omwana wa mama-wabho na Bharnabha unu mwalamiye obhwitondi okusoka kwaye, "Nolwo akaja kwemwe, mumulamile,"
\v 11 Nawe Yesu one unu kabhilikilwa Yusto. Bhanu bhenyele ni bho olutendo ni bhakosi bhe bhilimu bhejasu ingulu yo bhukama bhwa Nyamuanga. Bhwebhwe bhanu bho kusilisha anye.
