Bhaloma 2:1-22

¹Kwa nneyo, monaga nkwiitemba kwaukumula bhananji, nkakola sha kwiibheleketela. Nnakwiukumula mmayene, pabha numbe mmwe inkutenda yoyo peyo.

²Na uwe tumumanyi kuti ukumu ja a Nnungu ni ja kweli, kwa bhatendanga indu malinga yeneyo.

³Ikabheje mmwe anamundupe, nkwaukumulanga bhaatendanga indu malinga yeneyo, akuno mmayene nnitenda yoyo. Bhuli, punkuganishiya kuti shimwiembuye na ukumu ja a Nnungu?

⁴Eu nnakuunyegaya uguja gwa a Nnungu, na kwiitimalika na kwiipililila kwabho, gwangali kumumanya kuti uguja gwabho unakunnongoya mwiipete?

⁵Ikabheje kwa ligongo lya mitau na nonopa kwa ntima gwenu, nnakwiigosheya nnjimwa, lyubha lya nnjimwa ja a Nnungu, na ukumu jabho ja aki.

⁶Pabha lyene lyubhalyo, a Nnungu bhapinga kwiya kwaalipanga bhandunji bhowe malinga ibhatendangaga.

⁷Bhene bhaatendanga ya uguja gwangali kutotoshela, bhanaloleyanga kukopoka kwa a Nnungu, ukonjelo na ishimika na gumi gwangali angabhanika, na shibhapegwanje gumi gwa pitipiti.

⁸Ikabheje bhananji bhaakwetelanga na bhaakananga indu ya aki bhala, nikagulila yangali ya mmbone, shibhajibhonanje nnjimwa ja a Nnungu.

⁹Mboteko na shilaje shiimpate mundu jojowe atenda yangali ya mmbone, kutandubhila Bhayaudi na Bhagiliki.

¹⁰Ikabheje, ukonjelo na ishima na ulele, shibhapegwanje bhandunji bhaatendanga indu ya aki bhala, kutandubhila Bhayaudi na Bhagiliki.

¹¹Pabha a Nnungu bhangali luagu.

¹²Bhowe bhatendilenje yambi gwangali kujimanya shalia ja a Musha, shibhapotekwanje nngabha kwa ligongo lya shalia, na bhowe bhatendilenje yambi akuno bhalikujimanyanga shalia ja a Musha, shibhaukumulwanje kwa tolelela shalia ja a Musha pejo.

¹³Na nngabha bhakujipilikananga shalia ni bhakwete aki kwa a Nnungu, ikabheje bhaakundanga shalia bhala, nibhaakolanga aki.

¹⁴Bhandunji bha ilambo ina bhangalinginji shalia, pubhaatendanga indu ya shalia kwa ng'aniyo ya muntima gwabhonji bhanabhanganga bhandunji bha shalia, nkali bhanakolanje shalia.

¹⁵Bhanalanguyanga malajilo ga shalia jijandishwe mmitima jabhonji, ng'aniyo yabhonji ilikwakong'ondelanga na ilikwalonganga na guna ilikwaabheleketelanga ashaayenenji.

¹⁶Yeneyo ni ipinga koposhela, lyubha lya ukumu ja a Nnungu, pushibhaukumule indu ya nng'iyo kupitila a Yeshu Kilishitu, malinga shijikuti taya Ngani ja Mmbone jingulunguyaji.

¹⁷Pabha mmwe nkwiishema mmayene Mmayaudi, nnakulupalila shalia, na nnakwiiniya kuti bha a Nnungu.

¹⁸Mmwe nnikuimanya ibhapinga a Nnungu, na kunda indu ya mmbone, pabha nshijiganywa na shalia.

¹⁹Mmwe punkwiiganishiya kuti mmayene akalongolele bha ashinangalole, na kabhili mmwe shilangaya sha bhandu bhalinginji nnubhindu,

²⁰mmajiganya bha mabhelu na bhana bhashoko, pabha kwa shalia, mwiimanyi ukoto indu ya lumanyio na kweli.

²¹Bhai mmwe nkwaajiganyanga bhananji, kwa nndi nkakwiijiganya mmayene? Mmwe nkwaalimbiyanga bhananji bhanajibhanje, akuno mmayene nnijibha.

²²Mmwe nkulunguya kuti, “Mundu analabhelabhe” akuno mmayene nnilabhalabha. Inakunshima yanamu ya ashinnungu, mbena nnijibha indu ya mmajumba gabhonji.
