Pele “Inzya” wanu aabe inzya, a “Peepe” wanu aabe peepe,+ kutegwa mutabetekwi. 13  Sena kuli uupenga akati kanu? Azumanane kupaila.+ Sena kuli uukondedwe? Aimbe ntembauzyo.+ 14  Sena kuli uuciswa akati kanu? Aite baalu+ bambungano, eelyo abamupailile akumunanika mafwuta+ muzina lya Jehova.* 15  Eelyo mupailo walusyomo ulamuponya ooyo uucisidwe,* alimwi Jehova* ulamubusya. Kunze lyaboobo, ikuti naa wakacita zibi, ulalekelelwa. 16  Aboobo, amulyaambilile zibi zyanu+ caantangalala kuli umwi amweenzinyina alimwi amupaililane kutegwa muponesyegwe. Mupailo wakukombelezya wamuntu mululami ulabeleka canguzu kapati.*+ 17  Elija wakali muntu iwakali kulimvwa mbubonya mbotulimvwa aswebo, pele naakapaila camoyo woonse kuti mvwula itawi, tiiyakawa anyika iilya kwamyaka yotatwe amyezi iili cisambomwe.+ 18  Mpoonya wakapaila alimwi, eelyo mvwula yakawa kuzwa kujulu alimwi nyika yakazyala micelo.+ 19  Bakwesu, ikuti naa umwi akati kanu weenwa kuzwa mukasimpe eelyo umbi wamujola, 20  amuzyibe kuti ooyo uujola sizibi+ kuzwa kunzila yakwe iilubide uyoofwutula sizibi* ooyo kulufwu alimwi uyoovwumba zibi zinji kapati.+
