10 Mukambaphatisa basa malamulo yangu mudzachitise kuti nthawe zose nimbakukondeni, ninge momwe inepano nisungira malamulo ya Ababa vomwe vichitisa kuti nthawe zose ambanikonde.
11 Nakuuzani vinthu vimwevi kuti mukhale na chimwemwe chomwe ine ninacho komasoti kuti chimwemwe chanu chidzale maninge.
12 Nikukulamulani kuti mumbakondane ninge momwe inepano nikukonderani.
13 Palibe yemwe anachikondi chikulu kuposha cha munthu yemwe wapereka moyo wake ndawa ya anzake.

18 Peno dziko inkuzondana namwe, mumbakumbukire kuti idayamba kuzondana na ine ikanati kuzondana na imwepo.
19 Mudakakhala mbali ya dziko, dziko idakakukondani ninge mbali yake. Pakuti mulilini mbali ya dziko, koma ine nidakusankhulani kuchokera ku dziko, ndipomwapa dziko ikukuzondani.
20 Mumbakumbukire mawu yomwe nidakuuzani yale yakuti: Kapolo angakhalelini nkulu kuposha bwana wake. Peno adadzudza inepano, imwembo adzakudzudzeni. Peno aphatisa basa mawu yangu, adzaphatisembo basa mawu yanu.
21 Koma adzakuchitireni vose vimwevi ndawa ya dzina yangu, ndawa yemwe adanituma inepano akumudziwalini.
22 Nidakaleka kubwera kudzayankhula nawo, adakakhala alibe chimo. Koma manje angalambelini chimo yawo.
23 Aliyese yemwe azonda ine azonda pomwe Ababa wangu.
24 Nidakati niribe kuchita basa pamaso pawo zomwe palibe munango adachitako, adakakhala alibe chimo. Koma manje aniwona ndipo azondana nane komasoti azondana na Ababa wangu.
25 Vimwevi vachitika kuti mawu yomwe yadanembewa mu Chilamulo yakwanirisiwe. Mawu yake ni yakuti: ‘Adanizonda palibe chifukwa.’
26 Akadzafika wokuthandizani yemwe nidzakutumizireni kuchokera kwa Ababa, yemwe ni mzimu wa chonadi wochokera kwa Ababa, muyo adzanichitire umboni,
27 ndipo imwembo mudzanichitire umboni, ndawa mwakhala na ine kundochokera pakuyambirira.”
