6 Kuyambira pamene ndinabadwa, ndakhala ndikudalira Inu;

7 Ine ndakhala chinthu chodabwitsa kwa anthu ambiri

10 Pakuti adani anga ayankhula motsutsana nane;
iwo amene amadikira kuti andiphe amapangana pamodzi.
11 Iwo amati, “Mulungu wamusiya;

12 Musakhale kutali ndi ine Inu Mulungu,

16 Ndidzabwera ndi kulengeza za machitidwe amphamvu zanu Inu Ambuye Wamphamvuzonse.
Ndidzalengeza chilungamo chanu, chanu chokha.
17 Kuyambira ubwana wanga, Inu Mulungu mwakhala mukundiphunzitsa,

18 Ngakhale pamene ndakalamba ndipo imvi zili mbuu

19 Mphamvu zanu ndi kulungama kwanu zimafika mpaka kumwambamwamba.
Ndani wofanana nanu Inu Mulungu,

22 Ndidzakutamandani ndi zeze

23 Milomo yanga idzafuwula ndi chimwemwe

24 Lilime langa lidzafotokoza za ntchito zanu zachilungamo

22 Ife tikudziwa kuti chilengedwe chonse chakhala chikubuwula ndi ululu ngati ululu wa nthawi yobereka mwana mpaka tsopano lino. 23 Si 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. 24 Pakuti ife tinapulumutsidwa mʼchiyembekezo ichi.

Kodi ndani amene amayembekezera chimene ali nacho kale? 25 Koma ngati ife tiyembekeza chimene tikanalibe, ndiye kuti tikuyembekeza modekha mtima.

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