2 Nokuti ndakasarudza kusaziva chero chinhu chipi zvacho pakati penyu kunze kwaJesu Kristu,+ akarovererwa.
3 Ndakauya kwamuri ndisina simba, ndichitya uye ndichidedera kwazvo;+
4 uye kutaura kwangu nezvandakaparidza zvakanga zvisina mashoko okunyengetedza ouchenjeri asi zvairatidza kuva nomudzimu nesimba,+
5 kuti kutenda kwenyu kuve musimba raMwari,+ kwete muuchenjeri hwevanhu.+
6 Zvino tinotaura uchenjeri pakati pevaya vakura,+ asi kwete uchenjeri+ hwomumamiriro ezvinhu epanguva ino kana huya hwevatongi vomumamiriro ezvinhu epanguva ino,+ vaya vachaparara.+
7 Asi tinotaura uchenjeri hwaMwari muchakavanzika chitsvene,+ uchenjeri hwakavanzika, hwakafanogadzwa naMwari mamiriro+ ezvinhu epanguva yacho asati avapo kuti isu tikudzwe.
8 Hapana mumwe wevatongi+ vomumamiriro ezvinhu epanguva ino akasvika pakuziva uchenjeri uhwu,+ nokuti kudai vakanga vahuziva vangadai vasina kuroverera+ Ishe anokudzwa.
9 Asi sokunyorwa kwazvakaitwa kuti: “Ziso harina kuona nenzeve haina kunzwa, uyewo mumwoyo momunhu hamuna kufungwa zvinhu izvo Mwari akagadzirira vaya vanomuda.”+
10 Nokuti Mwari akazvizarurira+ isu achishandisa mudzimu wake,+ nokuti mudzimu+ unoongorora zvinhu zvose, kunyange zvinhu zvakadzama+ zvaMwari.
11 Nokuti pakati pevanhu ndiani anoziva zvinhu zvomunhu, kunze kwomudzimu+ wake uri maari? Saizvozvowo, hapana akasvika pakuziva zvinhu zvaMwari, kunze kwomudzimu+ waMwari.
12 Zvino takagamuchira, kwete mudzimu+ wenyika, asi mudzimu+ unobva kuna Mwari, kuti tizive zvinhu zvatakapiwa nomutsa naMwari.+
13 Tinotaurawo zvinhu izvi, kwete nemashoko anodzidziswa nouchenjeri hwevanhu,+ asi neaya anodzidziswa nomudzimu,+ patinotsanangura zvinhu zvomudzimu tichishandisa mashoko omudzimu.+
14 Asi munhu wenyama haagamuchiri zvinhu zvomudzimu waMwari, nokuti upenzi kwaari; uye haagoni kusvika pakuzviziva,+ nokuti zvinoongororwa mumudzimu.
15 Zvisinei, chokwadi munhu womudzimu+ anoongorora zvinhu zvose, asi iye haaongororwi+ nomunhu chero upi zvake.
16 Nokuti “ndiani akasvika pakuziva pfungwa dzaJehovha,+ kuti amurayiridze?”+ Asi isu tine pfungwa+ dzaKristu.
