Kalata ya Bubili ku Bena Korinti 6:1-18
6 Apo tubombela pamo nankwe,+ tulemupaapaata no kuti mwilacita ifipusene ne cikuuku icaibela ico Lesa amulanga.+
2 Pantu atila: “Mu nshita ya kukupaala, nalikumfwile, na mu bushiku bwe pusukilo nalikwafwile.”+ Mona! Ino ine e nshita iyo Lesa alepaalamo abantu bakwe. Mona! Buno e bushiku ubo Lesa alepusushamo abantu bakwe.
3 Tatucita nangu cimo icingapunwisha abantu, pa kuti abantu bekwata apa kusangila ifilubo mu mulimo wesu;+
4 lelo muli fyonse ifyo tucita tulalanga ukuti tuli babomfi ba kwa Lesa,+ ilyo tuleshipikisha amesho ayengi, ilyo tukwete amacushi, ilyo tulekabila ifintu fimo, ilyo tukwete amafya,+
5 ilyo baletupuma, ilyo batubika mu fifungo,+ ilyo kuli ifimfulunganya, ilyo tulebombesha, ilyo tulefufiwa utulo, ilyo tushikwete ifya kulya;+
6 ilyo tuli abasanguluka, ilyo tulelanga ukuti twalishiba Lesa, ilyo tuli abatekanya,+ ilyo tuli ne cikuuku,+ ilyo umupashi wa mushilo uletutungulula, ilyo tuli no kutemwa ukwabula ubumbimunda,+
7 ilyo tulanda icishinka, ilyo tubomfya amaka ya kwa Lesa;+ ilyo twikatila ifyanso fya bulungami ku kuboko kwa ku kulyo*+ na ku kwa ku kuso,*
8 ilyo batucindika na lintu batusaalula, ilyo batwamba ne lyo balanda ifisuma pali ifwe. Batumona kwati tuli ncenjeshi lelo tuli ba cishinka,
9 Batumona kwati tatwaishibikwa lelo twalishibikwa, batumona nga bantu abalefwa* nomba moneni tucili abomi,+ batumona ukuti tulingile ukukandwa nangu ca kuti tatufwile ukwipaiwa,+
10 batumona ukuti twaliba no bulanda, lelo tulasekelela lyonse, batumona ukuti tuli bapiina nomba nifwe tulenga abantu abengi baba abakankaala, kabili batumona kwati tatwakwata nangu cimo, lelo twalikwata fyonse.+
11 Twalimweba fyonse fye mwe bena Korinti, kabili twalikusha ukutemwa kwesu.
12 Ifwe tatwaleka ukumutemwa,+ lelo imwe tamwatutemwa sana.
13 E ico pa kuti na imwe mube nge fyo twaba, ndelanda nge fyo ningeba abana bandi ndeti, na imwe kusheni ukutemwa kwenu.+
14 Mwilaba kwi koli limo line na bashatetekela+ pantu tamwaba cimo cine. Bushe ubulungami na bumpulamafunde kuti fya-ampana shani?+ Nelyo bushe ulubuuto ne mfifi fyalipalana?+
15 Kabili bushe Kristu kuti aumfwana shani na Beliali?*+ Nangu bushe uwatetekela kuti aumfwana shani no ushatetekela?+
16 Na kabili, bushe utulubi finshi twingalacita mwi tempele lya kwa Lesa?+ Pantu ifwe tuli itempele lya kwa Lesa wa mweo;+ filya Lesa umwine alandile ati: “Nkalaikala nabo,+ nakulaendauka muli bena, kabili nkaba Lesa wabo, nabo bakaba abantu bandi.”+
17 “‘E ico fumenimo muli bena, kabili ipaatuleniko,’ e fyo Yehova* alanda, ‘kabili lekeni ukwikata ku cishasanguluka’”;+ “‘na ine nkamupokelela.’”+
18 “‘Kabili nkaba Shinwe,+ na imwe mukaba abana bandi abaume na bana bandi abanakashi,’+ e fyo Yehova* Uwa Maka Yonse alanda.”
