Sura ya 4.
1 Ngondo ni migogoro miongoni mwa muenga fihomela ndaku? Fijhinuka lepi kuhoma mu tamaa sya muenga sibhibhi sya sileta ngondo mugati mwa bhashirika bha jhomu?
2 Mwinoghela khela kya mubelili kujha naku. Mwikoma na mwijumbisya khela kyamwibhwe syalepi kujha nakhu. Mwikomana ni kujhwangana na mwakona mwikabhalepi kwandabha jha kutokun's'oka K'yara.
3 Mwis'oka na mwijhambelelalepi kwa ndabha mwis'oka, kwa ndabha jha mambo mabhibhi, ili kwamba mubhwesiajhi kufitumila kwa tamaa sya muenga sibhibhi.
4 Muenga bhazinzi mumanyililepi kujha urafiki ni ulimwengu ndo bhuadui dhidi jha K'yara? Henu jhejhioha jhaiamula kujha rafiki ghwa ulimwengu ikwibheka muene adui ghwa K'yara.
5 Au mwifikilila majhandiku ghajhelepi ni maana paghijobha kujha Roho jhaabhekhili mugati mwa tete ajhe ni bhuifu nesu kwandabha jha tete?
6 Lakini K'yara ihomesya neema nesu, ndo maana majhandiku ghijobha,”K'yara akampinga jha ajhe ni kiburi, lakini akampela neema mnyenyekevu.”
7 Efyo, mukihomessiajhi kwa K'yara. Mumpengajhi ibilisi ni muene ibetakujumba kuhoma kwa muenga.
8 Muhengelekayi palubhafu ni K'yara ni muene ibetakuhengelela palubhafu lwa muenga, musambajhi mabhoko gha muenga, muengajha mujhele ni dhambi, na mutakasiajhi mioyo ghya muenga, muenga jha mujhe ni nia sibhele.
9 Mukilombosiajhi, muombolesiajhi ni kulela! Musanusiajhi luhekhu lwa muenga kujha huzuni ni furaha jha muenga kujha maombolesu.
10 Mukitengolelayi mwebhene palongolo pa K'yara Bwana, na ibetakubhajhinula panani.
11 Musijobhani kinyume muenga jhomu kwa jhomu, mwebhalukholo. Munu jhaijobha kinyume ni ndongo munu, au kun'hukumula ndongomunu ikheta kinyume ni sheria ni kujhukumu sheria jha K'yara. Mukajhihukumulayi sheria, mukajhijiula sheria, bali mkajhihukumu.
12 Mmonga tu ambajhe jha ihomesya sheria na hakimu, K'yara muene jha ajhe ni bhuweso bhwa kuokola ni kujhangamisya. Bhabhe ghwe niani jha ukan'hukumu jirani ghwa jhobhi?
13 Mup'elekesiajhi muenga jha mwijobha, “Lelu au kilabhu twibetakulota mu mji obhu, ni kutama miaka okhu, ni kubhomba biashara ni kutengenesya faida.”
14 Niani jha amanyili kiki kyakybeta kuhomela kilabhu, ni maisha gha muene ndo kiki nesu? kwa kujha mwiwaningana kama liluka lya lihomela kwa muda bhudebe ni kisha kujhagha.
15 Badala jhiake ngamujobhili, “Kama ndo mapenzi gha Bwana, twibetakuishi ni tubeta kukhela ekhe au khela.”
16 Lakini henu mwikifuna panani pa mipango ghenu. Majivuno ghoha aghu ndo bhuovu.
17 Henu, kwa muene jha amanyili kukheta manofu lakini ikheta lepi kwa muene ojhu ndo dhambi.
