¹⁹Kuya wamsola, wamghala hanu he ukutinganila ha Areopagho, wamlongela, “Utulongele malangulitso ghachi ghano gha sambi ghweghwe ghaulonga?

²⁰Kwaapfila kutughalila ipfinu pfihenza, na twetwe twobama tumanye mbuli atso tsina mana yachi.”

²¹Iwanu wa Asene na iwagheni iwang'ali wokala ako tsawang'ali wotumila matsuwa ghawo ghose kulonga na kuhulikitsa mbuli tse sambi.

²²Apfo Pauli kema hambele ha mtingano wa Areopagho, kalonga, “Amweye iwanu wa Asene nene nakona mwemwe mwa iwanu yamuwinza dini ghendo.

²³Kwaapfila haning'ali nibita na kulola ghoya hanu hamlombela, mbona hanu hakulapfila inambiko handikighwe. Kwe Imulungu ing'ayomanyika. Lelo nene nowapetela mbuli tsake yuyo yamumtambikila bila kummanya.

²⁴“Imulungu iyalumbile isi na pfinu pfose ipfili mumo, ka Imtwatsa wa kulanga na iisi, ng'okala bae mne ng'anda tse Imulungu itsitsengighwe kwa ghamoko ghe iwanu.

²⁵Wala ng'otumikighwa kwa ghamoko ghe iwanu, ka yeye kobama ichinu chochose, kwaapfila yeye imwenyegho koweng'a iwanu wose ughima na muhe na ipfinu pfose.

²⁶Kulawa kwe imunu yumwe, katenda ghamataifa ghose ghe iwanu ghakale mne iisi yose. Tsakalamla kulawa ghumwande, tsuwachi na kwani ghamataifa agho ghang'akalile.

²⁷Imulungu katenda apfo ili iwanu wambame na wamwone hata kwa kubumbulitsa bumbulitsa, hata apfo Imulungu ng'ali kutali bae ne iwanu wose.

²⁸‘Kwaapfila kuna yeye twetwe twokala, twoghenda na kuwa na ughima wetu.’ Ka yumwe wenu imtunga wila pfalongile, ‘Twetwe wose twa mweleko wake’

²⁹“Apfo kwaapfila twetwe twa mweleko ghwe Imulungu, ng'atubamighwa bae kwalangula ka Imulungu keghala na nzahabu au fetsa au libwe, ipfinu ipfisongolighwe ghoya kwe tsimbutsi tse iwanu.

³⁰Ghumwande Imulungu tsakatenda ka ng'akona bae ghamatsuwa ghala iwanu hawakalile wabotsi, lekeni lelo kowalaghitsa iwanu wose chila hanu watsileke nzambi tsawo.

³¹Kwaapfila Imulungu keka litsuwa hayatsoihinya iisi kwa haki kwa imunu yula iyamsaghule. Kawatenda iwanu wose wamtoghole kwa kumtsilihula imunu ayo.”

³²Hawamhulike Pauli kolonga imbuli ya ukutsilihuka, wangi wamseka, lekeni wangi walonga, “Twobama tuhulikitse keli imbuli ino.”
