17 Yesu anati kwa ophunzira ake, “Zinthu zimene zimachimwitsa sizingalephere kubwera, koma tsoka kwa munthu wozibweretsayo. ² Kukanakhala bwino kwa iye kuti aponyedwe mʼnyanja atamangiriridwa mwala wamphero mʼkhosi mwake kusiyana kuti achimwitse mmodzi mwa ana aangʼonowa. ³ Nʼchifukwa chake dziyangʼanireni nokha.

“Ngati mʼbale wanu achimwa, mudzudzuleni, ndipo ngati alapa, mukhululukireni. ⁴ Ngati iye akulakwira kasanu ndi kawiri pa tsiku, ndipo ngati nʼkubweranso kwa iwe kasanu ndi kawiri nati, ‘Ndalapa,’ umukhululukire.”
