3Paja ifeyo ndiye oumbala enieni, ife amene timapembedza Mulungu motsogoleredwa ndi Mzimu Woyera. Timanyadira Khristu Yesu, osadalira miyambo ya thupi chabe.

8Zoonadi, zonse ndikuziwona kuti nzosapindulitsa poziyerekeza ndi phindu lopambana la kudziŵa Khristu Yesu, amene ndi Ambuye anga. Chifukwa cha Khristuyo ndidalolera kutaya zonse, nkumaziyesa zinyalala, kuti potero phindu langa likhale Khristu,

9Iye ndi ine tikhale amodzi. Sindiyesanso pandekha kukhala wolungama pakutsata Malamulo, koma ndizikhala ndi chilungamo chopezeka pakukhulupirira Khristu, chilungamo chochokera kwa Mulungu, chochilandira pakukhulupirira.

10Chimene ndikufuna nchakuti ndidziŵe Khristu, ndiponso mphamvu zimene zidamuukitsa kwa akufa. Ndikufunanso kumva zoŵaŵa pamodzi naye ndi kufanafana naye pa imfa yake.

11Ndikuyesetsa kuchita zimenezi pokhulupirira kuti inenso ndidzakhala ndi moyo wosatha podzauka kwa akufa.

13Abale, sindikuganiza konse kuti ndazipata kale. Koma pali chimodzi chokha chimene ndimachita: ndimaiŵala zakumbuyo, ndi kuyesetsa kufikira ku zakutsogolo.

14Ndikuthamangira ku mapeto a mpikisano wa liŵirowu, kuti ndikalandire mphotho Kumwamba, imene Mulungu akutiitanira kudzera mwa Khristu Yesu.

15Tsono ife tonse amene tili okhwima pa moyo wathu wauzimu, tikhale ndi mtima womwewo. Ngati pa zinthu zina muli ndi maganizo osiyana ndi ameneŵa, pameneponso Mulungu adzakuunikirani.

16Koma ngakhale zitani, tisatayepo kanthu pa zoona zimene takhala tikuzikhulupirira mpaka tsopano.

19Mathero ao nkuwonongeka. Zosangalatsa thupi chabe ndizo zili ngati mulungu wao. Amanyadira zimene akadayenera kuchita nazo manyazi, ndipo amangoika mtima pa zapansipano zokha.

20Koma ife kwathu kwenikweni ndi Kumwamba, ndipo kumeneko kudzachokera Mpulumutsi amene tikumuyembekeza. Mpulumutsiyo ndi Ambuye Yesu Khristu.
