1 Apfo ghweghwe mwanangu, Imulungu yakwing'e ngupfu mne uluso watupata mna ukwilunga na Kiristu Yesu. 2 Na aghala ghunihulike nolonga hambele he iwakalangama wengi, uweng'e iwanu iwanoghile iwodaha kuwalangulitsa iwanu wangi pfipfila.

3 Ududumile ghamaghayo hamwe na twetwe, ka asikali yanoghile wa Kiristu Yesu. 4 Asikali mne ing'ondo ng'otenda bae tsing'onde tsa ughima wa chila litsuwa, ila kotenda ng'onde tsa mng'ondo ili yamnoghelese mkulu wake. 5 Pfipfila imunu iyotsuma na weyaghe mne mdawalo, ng'odaha kubokela ghweko lye ukuhuma ka ng'awinzile ghamalaghitso gha mdawalo. 6 Imunu iyolima ng'ani iyo iyobamighwa yalongole kubokela ghamapfuno. 7 Ughalangule ghano ghanilonga, kwaapfila Imtwatsa katsokutenda umanye chila chinu.

8 Mkumbuke Kiristu Yesu, iyatsilihuke, yakalile mtsukulu wa Daudi, ka pfailonga Imbuli Inoghile yaniipeta. 9 Kwaapfila noipeta Imbuli Inoghile nene nodununzika mbaka nikighwa mchifungo ka mtenda ghehile, lekeni Imbuli ye Imulungu ng'aikohighwa bae. 10 Apfo nodudumila pfinu pfose kwaajili ye iwasaghulighwe ne Imulungu ili nawo wapate ukombotsi iuli mghati mwa Kiristu Yesu, hamwe ne utunitso wa ghamatsuwa ghose. 11 Imbuli ino yolongesa. Tung'afa naye, pfipfila tutsokala naye 12 Tung'adudumila, tutsotawala naye, tung'amlema, naye katsotulema. 13 Ka twetwe si wakutogholighwa bae, yeye kosighala wakutogholighwa, kwaapfila yeye ng'odaha kughaluka mna aghala ghalongile.

14 Uwakumbuse ipfinu apfo, na uwakanye hambele he Imulungu, waleke kuhisanyila tsimbuli tsolongatse, ng'apfinoghile bae, chinu acho chowahinya awala iwohulikitsa. 15 Wighangamitse kwilangusa kuwa kutogholighwa ne Imulungu, ka imunu iyosang'ana isang'ano yake aku ng'oyonela chinyala bae na kolangulitsa pfinoghile usenga ula wa kweli. 16 Ukale kutali ne mbuli itsihile na tsa chibotsi, atso tsowatenda iwanu wakale kutali ne Imulungu. 17 Ghamalangulitso ghawo gheghala na londa ilikula himahima no ukuja lukuli. Wamwenga wawo iwo Hemenayo na Fileto. 18 Waileka inzila ya kweli, na kuhinya inoghola ye iwanu wangi kwa kulonga kutsilihuka kwa iwanu wose ma kupfika. 19 Lekeni ukweli we Imulungu wima ghendo ka lukwalambatsa lwe ghamabwe, na mchanya mwake lwandikighwa pfino, “Imtwatsa kowamanya iwanu wake” na “Chila imunu iyolonga yeye ka imunu we Imtwatsa, yaleke ghehile.”

20 Mne ing'anda ng'ulu haduhu ipfinu pfa nzahabu na fetsa pfiliheka, ila hana pfinu pfa mibiki na pfa lidongo, pfimwenga pfa heshima na pfimwenga si pfa heshima bae. 21 Imunu ang'edeghetetsa kulawa mne ghehile kakuwa ichinu cha kutogholighwa, kwaapfila kelapfa na kutumika ne imtwatsa wake, keyandaa kutenda chila isang'ano inoghile. 22 Utsipfuke dong'o tsa usongolo, na ubame ukukala ka pfobama Imulungu, uwe na inoghola na unoghelo na tindiwalo hamwe na wose iwomlomba Imtwatsa kwa ghumoyo ghunoghile. 23 Utsileme mbuli tsa ubotsi na itsilihela mana, kwaapfila kwomanya tsoghala ukwisonga. 24 Mtumwa we Imtwatsa ng'esonga bae. Yahole kwe iwanu wose na yadahe kulangulitsa na yadudumile, 25 yawakanye kwa uhole awala iwohisanya naye, kwaapfila Imulungu kodaha kuwatenda watoghole nzambi tsawo na kutsileka na waumanye ukweli, 26 ili tsimbutsi tsawo tsiwoile na kulawa mne chonzo cha Yehile iyawonzile na kuwatenda watende pfobama yeye.
