⁷Kuya Pauli kalawa mne Ing'anda ye ukulombela, kaghenda mne ing'anda ili habehi, ing'anda ya Tito Yusti, imunu iyomtamanila Imulungu.

⁸Kirispo imkulu we ing'anda ye ukulombela na iwanu wa ukaye yake wamtoghola Imtwatsa. Na Wakolinto wengi hawahulike, watoghola na kubatitsighwa.

¹⁰Kwaapfila nene na hamwe naghwe, kuduhu imunu iyodaha kukulagha, kwaapfila nina iwanu wengi mne isi ino.”

¹³Walonga, “Imunu yuno kowatenda iwanu wamtamanile Imulungu bila kughawinza malaghitso gha Musa.”

¹⁴Na Pauli hayabamile kulonga, Galiyo kawalongela Wayahudi, “Ka mng'aghalile lighomba lye imunu kutenda ghehile au kutotsa, ning'adahile kuwahulikitsa.

¹⁵Lekeni kwaapfila lighomba lino lya mchanya mwe mbuli na mataghwa na malaghitso ghenu, mlamle iwenyegho. Nene sibama bae kuwa mlamutsi wa lighomba lino!”
