17 Ngocho nawa, lufwelelo hauka walwo lwakuzeneka vilinga, lunapu lwakufwa.+
18 Oloze mutu umwe mwamba ngwenyi: “Ove uli nalufwelelo, kahami nguli navilinga. Ngulweze lufwelelo lwove lwakuzeneka vilinga, kahami nangukulweza lufwelelo lwami havilinga vyami.”
19 Kutala wetavila ngwove kwatwama Kalunga umwe kaha nyi? Uli nakulinga kanawa. Navandemone nawa vetavila ngocho, kaha veji kulichikiminanga.+
20 Oloze ove mutu wamokomoko, nausaka utachikize ngwove lufwelelo lwakuzeneka vilinga lwapwa lwamokomoko tahi?
21 Kutala kakuluka yetu Apalahama kavamuvulukile kupwa wakwoloka havilinga vyenyi omu alingile hanahane lyehi mwanenyi Isaka halijiko lyakulumbilako nyi?+
22 Unamono jino ngwove lufwelelo lwenyi lwapwile lwalukangule hamwe navilinga vyenyi, kaha lufwelelo lwenyi lwakupukile navilinga vyenyi,+
23 kaha chisoneka chateselemo chakwamba ngwacho: “Apalahama afwelelele Yehova,* kaha vamuvulukile kupwa wakwoloka,”+ ngocho vamuvulukile nawa ngwavo sepa lyaYehova.*+
24 Munamono jino ngwenu mutu navamuvulukila kwoloka mwomwo yavilinga, keshi mwomwo yalufwelelo kahako.
