2 Mumu nunanyingika usongwelo* uze twanuhele wa kuli* Mwene Yesu.
3 Mumu uno we upale wa Zambi, ngwo nupwe asandu ni kwehuka chikolo utanji.*

13 Chikwo nawa mandumbu, kutwazangile hanga nwalajale* hakutwala kuli waze anapombo mu ufwe, hanga nuchine kunenganyana chinji ngwe chize akulinga anji waze keshi ni kutalatala.
14 Nyi tuli ni ufulielo ngwetu, Yesu kafwile mba yamuhindwisa, tuli nawa ni ufulielo ngwetu, waze anapombo mu ufwe mukulinunga ni Yesu, Zambi makaaneha hamwe nenyi.
15 Mumu tunambe kuli yenu kulita ni liji lia Yehova* ngwetu: Yetu tuli ni mwono, waze mutukapwa ni mwono ndo ha kuheta cha Mwene, kutuchi katetekela waze hanapombo kulu mu ufwe.
16 Mumu Mwene makahulumuka mwilu ni liji lia shimbi, ni liji lia mungelo wa lutwe, ni chitavwi cha Zambi, mba atu waze afwile mukulinunga ni Kristu, makalianga kuhinduka.
17 Mba yetu waze mutukapwa ni mwono, makatupindumuna hamwe no mu malelwa hanga tukaliwane ni Mwene mwilu. Chocho mutukatwama hamwe nenyi ndo ku miaka ya mutolo.
18 Kashika, nungenu ni kulitakamisa umwe ni mukwo ni maliji wano.
