1 Bhakilishitu ajangunji, nne punaliji na mmanganya nangammeleketelanga mbuti bhandu bha mmbumu. Ikabheje mbuti bhandu bha pashilambolyo, malinga ashinambombe nndamo ja shi Kilishitu. 2 Nashinkumpanganga mabhele, nngabha shalya shanonopa, pabha nkashilepelenje. Nkali nnaino nkashikombolanga. 3 Numbe mmanganyanji launo nnakagulilanga indu ya pa shilambolyo. Pabha kungwenunji lushipagwa lupimililo na mpwai, bhuli mmanganya nngabha malinga bhandunji bha pa shilambolyo? Nnatamangana kwa kagulila nkubho gwa bhandunji bha pashilambolyo. 4 Mundu jumo munkumbi gwenunji pabheleketa kuti nne jwa a Pauli na juna kuti nne jwa a Apolo, bhuli, yeneyo ikalangula kuti nnatamangana malinga bhandu bha pa shilambolyo?

5 A Apolo ni agani? Na a Pauli ni agani? Uwe bhatumishipe twampeleshelenje mmanganya ngulupai. Kila mundu munkumbi gwetu anatenda malinga shapegwilwe na Bhakulungwa. 6 Nne nashinkupanda mmbeju, a Apolo gubhajitilile mashi, ikabheje bhameshiye mmbeju a Nnungu. 7 Kwa nneyo, jwa mmbone nngabha apandile mmbeju jula eu ajitilile mashi, ikabhe bha mmbone a Nnungu bhameshiye mmbeju. 8 Apandile jula eu ajitilile mashi bhowe bhanalingananga, ikabheje kila mundu shaposhele upo yakwe kwa liengo lyatendile. 9 Pabha uwe na mmanganyanji, tubhowe tubhakamula liengo lya a Nnungu pamo, na mmanganya ni malinga nngunda gwabho na nyumba jabho.

10 Kwa jangutilwa na nema jimbegwilwe na a Nnungu, malinga nkushenga akwete lunda, aolile nshingi gwa nyumba na mundu juna gwaishe shenga pa ntundu jakwe. Ikabheje kila mundu alolesheye shakuti shenga panani jakwe. 11 Jwakwa mundu juna shaolele maimbo ga shenga, paolelwe pala, yani a Yeshu Kilishitu. 12 Ibhaga mundu shaashenje panani jakwe, kwa shaabhu eu maganga ga ela eu maganga ga bhei jikuklungwa, na juna shaashenjele nkali mikongo eu maamba eu manyai. 13 Ikabheje, lyubha lya ukumu liengo lya kila mundu shilibhoneshe mobha gushibhaishe a Kilishitu. Pabha, lyene lyubhalyo a Nnungu shibhapime kushimilika kwa kila liengo. 14 Monaga shashenjile mundu shibhonekaga kulonjeya, bhai shaposhele upo. 15 Ikabheje shashenjile mundu shitinikaga, bhai, akapegwa upo, ikabheje nnyene shatapulwe mbuti akolobhweshe pa moto.

16 Bhuli, nkakwimanyanga kuti mmanganya ni likanisha, na kuti Mbumu jwa a Nnungu anatama mmunda jenunji? 17 Bhai, mundu aangabhanyaga likanisha lya a Nnungulyo, a Nnungu shibhanng'angabhanye jwene mundujo, pabha likanisha lya a Nnungu, ni lya Ukonjelo na lyene likanisha lya a Nnungulyo, ni mmanganyanji.

18 Nnaitembanje! Mundu jojowe munkumbi gwenunji aiganishiyaga kuti ashikola lunda malinga lwa pa shilambolyo, mbaya aiputuye nkupinga akole lunda lwa kweli. 19 Pabha lunda lwa pa shilambolyo pano ni ungumba kwa a Nnungu. Na Majandiko ga Ukonjelo gakuti, “A Nnungu bhanakwaakamulanga bhakwetenje lunda, nkupenya kwabhonji.” 20 Kabhili Majandiko gakuti, “Bhakulungwa bhamumanyi ng'aniyo ya bhakwetenje lunda kuti ikapwaa.”

21 Bhai mundu anaipunile bhandu. Pabha indu yowe yenunji. 22 Ibhaga a Pauli, eu a Apolo, eu a Kepa, eu shilambolyo, eu gumi na kuwa, eu indu ipali, nnaino na ikwiya, yowe ni yenunji, 23 ikabheje mmanganya ni bha a Kilishitu na bhalabho a Kilishitu ni bha a Nnungu.
