Ndima 6

1 Mukushanda pamwepo naye, tinomupota kuti musaashira nyasha dzaMwari

pasina shwiro.

2 Ngokuti iye unoti, “Ndakamuzwa ngenguva inoashirika, nepazuva rokuponeswa

ndakakudetsera”; penyai, zvino ndiyo nguva inoashirika; penyai, zvino zuva roruponeso.

3 Isusu atiisi chipumhuniso munjira youmweni kuti kushandira kwedu kusazoshoorwa, 4 asi ngezviro

zveshe tiite vanotendwa kudai ngezvinosisira vashandi vaMwari, kubudikidza ngokusengerera kukurutu,

mukutambudzika, mukutama, mukuhahairwa,

5 mukurohwa, mukukonyerwa mutirongo, muhohoho,

mukushanda ngesimba, mukurinda, munzara,

6 mukucheneswa, mukuzia, murubambazira, mukuitirwa

nyasha, muMweya Wakachena, ngorudo rusikadziitisi,

7 ngeizwi regwinyiso, ngesimba raMwari;

ngezvokurwa ndizvo zvokururama ngokumudyo nokumuoshwe;

8 mukukudzwa nomukusikakudzwa,

mukureyiwa nomumbiri yakanaka; tinobatwa kudai ngevachengedzi, asi tiri vegwinyiso;

9 kudai

ngevasikaziikanwi, asi tiri vanonasa kuziikanwa; kudai ngevanofa, asi wonai tinopona; kudai

ngevanoororwa, asi atiurawi;

10 kudai ngevanosvipa mwoyo, asi tinogara techidakara; kudai ngevarombo,

asi tinofumisa vazhinji, kudai ngevasina chevanacho, asi tinazvo zveshe.

11 Muromo wedu wakaereketa zvakaperera kwomuri, imwimwi vaKhorinte; mwoyo yedu yakabeuka

yaamho.

12 Amumanikidzwi tisu, asi munodzimanikidza murudo rwenyu. 13 Zvino ngokuunzidzira

kwakatodzana, ndinoereketa kudai ngounoereketa kwendinoita kuvana vangu, mwoyo yenyu ngaibeuke

yaamho.

14 Musaita vanosungirwa ngokusikasisirani pamwepo nevasikatendi. Ngokuti kuri pari kuzwanana

kwokururama nokushata? Nokuti kuri pari kuiyana kwokujeka nechidima?

15 Nokuti kuri pari

kutenderana kwaKristu naBheriari? Nokuti mutendi unechikoaniswa chenyi nousikatendi?

16 Kuri pari

kutenderana kwetemperi raMwari nemiedzaniso yokudira? Ngokuti isusu tiri temperi raMwari unopona;

kudai ngezvaakaronza Mwari kuti, “Ndinozogara pakati pavo, nokuhamba pakati pavo; neni ndinozoita

Mwari wavo, navo vanozoita vanhu vangu.

17 Ndizvo budai kubva pakati pavo, mudziparadzanise kubva kwavari, unoronza Mambo Mwari,

musagwama chiro chakasvipiswa; naapo ndinozomuashira,

18 neni ndinozoita Baba enyu, nemwi

munozoita vakororo vangu nevasikana vangu, unoronza Mambo Mwari Unesimbareshe.”
