5Pakuti anthu amene amakhala monga mwa makhalidwe oyipa a thupi amayika malingaliro awo pa zinthu zathupi. Koma amene amakhala monga mwa Mzimu amayika malingaliro awo pa zinthu za Mzimu. 6Kuyika mtima pa zathupi ndi imfa koma kuyika mtima pa za Mzimu ndi moyo ndi mtendere. 7Pakuti mtima umene wakhazikika pa zathupi ndi wodana ndi Mulungu. Sunagonjere lamulo la Mulungu ndipo sungathe kutero. 8Ndipo anthu amene amalamulidwa ndi khalidwe lauchimo sangathe kukondweretsa Mulungu.
9Koma inu simulamulidwanso ndi khalidwe lanu lauchimo koma ndi Mzimu ngati Mzimu wa Mulungu akhaladi mwa inu. Koma ngati munthu aliyense alibe Mzimu wa Khristu, iyeyu si wa Khristu. 10Ndipo ngati Khristu ali mwa inu, thupi lanu ndi lakufa chifukwa cha uchimo, koma mzimu wanu ndi wamoyo chifukwa cha chilungamo. 11Ndipo ngati Mzimu wa Mulungu amene anaukitsa Yesu kwa akufa akhala mwa inu, Iyeyo amene anaukitsa Khristu kwa akufa adzapatsanso moyo matupi anu amene amafa kudzera mwa Mzimu wake amene amakhala mwa inu.

Koma ngati mwa Mzimu mupha ntchito zoyipa zathupi, mudzakhala ndi moyo. 14Onse amene amatsogozedwa ndi Mzimu wa Mulungu ndi ana a Mulungu. 15Mzimu amene inu munalandira samakusandutsani akapolo, kuti muzikhalanso amantha, koma Mzimu amakusandutsani ana. Ndipo mwa Iye ife timafuwula kuti, “Abba, Atate.” 16Mzimu mwini amavomerezana ndi mzimu wathu kuti ife ndife ana a Mulungu. 17Tsono ngati tili ana ake, ndiye kuti ndife olowa mʼmalo a Mulungu ndi olowa mʼmalo pamodzi ndi Khristu. Ngati ife timva zowawa pamodzi ndi Khristu, tidzalandiranso ndi ulemerero womwe pamodzi naye.

Koma chili ndi chiyembekezo 21chakuti chidzamasulidwa ku ukapolo wa chivundi ndi kulandiranso ufulu ndi ulemerero wa ana a Mulungu.
22Ife tikudziwa kuti chilengedwe chonse chakhala chikubuwula ndi ululu ngati ululu wa nthawi yobereka mwana mpaka tsopano lino. 23Si zokhazo ayi, ngakhale ife tomwe, amene tili ndi zipatso zoyamba za Mzimu, tikubuwulira mʼkati mwathu pomwe tikudikira mwachidwi kusankhidwa kwathu ngati ana, kuwomboledwa kwa matupi athu. 24Pakuti ife tinapulumutsidwa mʼchiyembekezo ichi. Koma chiyembekezo chimene chimaoneka si chiyembekezo ayi. Kodi ndani amene amayembekezera chimene ali nacho kale? 25Koma ngati ife tiyembekeza chimene tikanalibe, ndiye kuti tikuyembekeza modekha mtima.
26Momwemonso, Mzimu amatithandiza ife mʼkufowoka kwathu. Ife sitidziwa momwe tiyenera kupempherera koma Mzimu mwini amatipempherera mobuwula ndi mawu osafotokozedwa. 27Koma Iye amene amasanthula mitima yathu amadziwa maganizo a Mzimu, chifukwa Mzimu amapempherera oyera mtima molingana ndi chifuniro cha Mulungu.
Oposa Agonjetsi
28Ndipo ife tikudziwa kuti zinthu zonse zimathandizana kuwachitira ubwino amene amakonda Mulungu, amene anayitanidwa monga mwa cholinga chake. 29Pakuti amene Mulungu anawadziwiratu, anawasankhiratunso kuti akonzedwe mʼchifanizo cha Mwana wake, kuti Iye akhale Mwana woyamba kubadwa mwa abale ambiri. 30Iwo amene anawasankhiratu, anawayitananso. Amene Iye anawayitana anawalungamitsanso ndipo amene anawalungamitsa anawapatsanso ulemerero.
31Nanga tsono tidzanena chiyani pa izi? Ngati Mulungu ali mbali yathu, adzatitsutsa ife ndani? 32Iye amene sanatimane Mwana wake wa Iye yekha, koma anamupereka chifukwa cha ife tonse.

Ndi Mulungu amene amalungamitsa. 34Ndani amene angatipeze ife olakwa? Palibe. Khristu Yesu amene anafa, kuposera pamenepo, amene anaukitsidwa ndi moyo, amene ali kudzanja lamanja la Mulungu ndiye amene akutipempherera. 35Ndani amene adzatilekanitsa ife ndi chikondi cha Khristu? Kodi ndi masautso, kapena zowawa, kapena mazunzo, kapena njala, kapena umaliseche, kapena choopsa, kapena lupanga? 36Monga kwalembedwa:
“Chifukwa cha inu, ife tikuphedwa tsiku lonse:
ife tikutengedwa ngati nkhosa zoti zikaphedwe.”
37Ayi, mu zonsezi ife ndife oposa agonjetsi mwa Iye amene anatikonda. 38Pakuti ine ndatsimikiza ndi mtima wonse kuti ngakhale imfa, kapena moyo, ngakhale angelo, kapena ziwanda, ngakhale zinthu zilipo, kapena zili mʼtsogolo, kapena mphamvu zina, 39ngakhale kutalika, kapena kuya, kapena chilichonse mʼchilengedwe chonse, sizingathe kutisiyanitsa ndi chikondi cha Mulungu chimene chili mwa Khristu Yesu Ambuye athu.

Ebirowoozo eby’omubiri tebiyinza kuwulira mateeka ga Katonda. 8N’abo abafugibwa omubiri tebayinza kusanyusa Katonda.
98:9 a 1Ko 6:19; Bag 4:6 b Yk 14:17; 1Yk 4:13Naye mmwe temufugibwa mubiri wabula mufugibwa Mwoyo, kubanga Omwoyo wa Katonda abeera mu mmwe. Era omuntu yenna bw’ataba na Mwoyo wa Kristo, oyo si wa Kristo. 108:10 Bag 2:20Era obanga Kristo ali mu mmwe, omubiri gwammwe mufu olw’ekibi, ate ng’omwoyo gwammwe mulamu olw’obutuukirivu. 118:11 a Bik 2:24 b Yk 5:21Era obanga Omwoyo w’oyo eyazuukiza Yesu okuva mu bafu abeera mu mmwe, oyo eyazuukiza Kristo mu bafu, alifuula emibiri gyammwe egifa okuba emiramu ku bw’Omwoyo we abeera mu mmwe.

Naye essuubi erirabibwa si ssuubi; kubanga ani asuubira ky’alabako? 25Naye bwe tusuubira kye tutalabako, tukirindirira n’okugumiikiriza.

Kristo Yesu yafa, kyokka okusinga byonna yazuukizibwa, era ali ku mukono ogwa ddyo ogwa Katonda, ng’atwegayiririra. 358:35 1Ko 4:11Ani alitwawukanya n’okwagala kwa Kristo? Kubonaabona, oba bulumi, oba kuyigganyizibwa, oba njala, oba kuba bwerere, oba kabi, oba kitala? 368:36 Zab 44:22; 2Ko 4:11Kyawandiikibwa nti:
“Ku lulwo tutiisibwatiisibwa n’okuttibwa obudde okuziba,
era tubalibwa ng’endiga ez’okusalibwa.”
