Tsamba Yaciwiri Kuna Akristu a ku Korinto 4:1-18
4 Natenepa, nakuti tiri na utumiki uyu udapaswa ife mwakubverana na ntsisi zidapangizwa ife, ife nkhabe kubwerera nduli.
2 Mbwenye ife tasiya pinthu pyakupasa manyadzo, pinacitwa ncibisobiso, tisakhonda macitiro aciphamaso,* pontho ife nkhabe kuthimizira nee kupungula* mafala a Mulungu;+ mbwenye tisadziwisa undimomwene. Natenepa, ife tisapangizika kuna cikumbuntima ca anthu onsene kuti tisacita pinthu pyadidi pamaso pa Mulungu.+
3 Mwandimomwene, khala mphangwa zadidi zinamwaza ife zaphimbirwa, zaphimbirwa kuna ale akuti ali kuenda kafudzwa,
4 akuti mulungu wa dziko ino*+ afunga manyerezero a anyakukhonda kukhulupira,+ toera cikhonde kupita muna iwo+ ceza ca mbiri ya mphangwa zadidi zinalonga pya Kristu, wakuti ndi cipangizo ca makhaliro a Mulungu.+
5 Thangwi nee tisamwaza mphangwa zinalonga pya ife, mbwenye zinalonga pya Yezu Kristu ninga Mbuya, mbatibvekesa kuti ndife mabitcu thangwi ya Yezu.
6 Thangwi Mulungu ndiye adalonga kuti: “Ceza mbacioneke pa cidima,”+ pontho iye asayetimira mʼmitima yathu, toera aimwanikire+ na mbiri ya cidziwiso ca Mulungu, kubulukira pa nkhope ya Kristu.
7 Mbwenye ife tiri na mpfuma+ iyi mu pyombo pya dongo,*+ toera kupangiza kuti mphambvu yakupiringana yacibaliro isabuluka kuna Mulungu, tayu kuna ife.+
8 Tisaona nyatwa munjira zonsene, mbwenye nee tisapfinywa kakamwe mbaticimwana kupfukunyuka, tisamala ndzeru,* mbwenye nee tisasowa cakucita;*+
9 ife tisatcingwa, mbwenye nee tisasiyiwa tekhene,+ tisagwiswa pantsi, mbwenye nee tisafudzwa.+
10 Ndzidzi onsene tisapirira mʼmanungo mwathu nyatwa za kufa zidaona Yezu,+ toera umaso wa Yezu upangizikembo mʼmanungo mwathu.
11 Thangwi ife akuti tiri mʼmaso, ndzidzi onsene tisakhala pangozwi yakufa+ thangwi ya Yezu, toera umaso wa Yezu upangizikembo mʼmanungo mwathu akuti anakwanisa kufa.
12 Natenepa, kufa kusaphata basa muna ife,* mbwenye pyenepi pisabweresa umaso kuna imwe.
13 Cincino, nakuti tiri na cikhulupiro cibodzi cene ninga mudalemberwa ipyo kuti: “Ine ndakhulupira, na thangwi ineyi ndalonga”;+ ifembo tisakhulupira, na thangwi ineyi tisalonga,
14 mbatidziwa kuti ule adalamusa Yezu muli akufa, anadzatilamusambo na Yezu, mbatiendesa pabodzi na imwe kuna Yezu.+
15 Pinthu pyenepi pyonsene pyacitika thangwi ya imwe, toera kukoma ntima kukulu kuthimizirike, thangwi anthu azinji ali kupereka takhuta toera kupasa mbiri Mulungu.+
16 Na thangwi ineyi, ife nkhabe kubwerera nduli, maseze kunja manungo athu akumala, mbwenye nkati mwathu musasasanyirwa ntsiku zonsene.
17 Thangwi maseze nyatwa* zinaona ife ndi za ndzidzi wakucepa na zakululupa, izo zisabweresa mbiri ikulu* kakamwe kuna ife, mbiri yakuti nkhabe kumala;+
18 mu ndzidzi wakuti nee tisaikha maso athu ku pinthu pyakuoneka na maso, mbwenye ku pinthu pyakukhonda kuoneka na maso.+ Thangwi pinthu pinaona ife na maso athu ndi pya ndzidzi wakucepa, mbwenye pinthu pinakhonda ife kuona ndi pya kwenda na kwenda.
