Nihoshelhelhiha venchi ni ukhalha wo uhilhia. 6Nineechooniha ukhalha akarumiya a Nlhuku wo urera nrima ni ukhalha ni irusho ni uvilhelha ni ukhalha ni nrima woombone. Ninookhulhuvelha machiri o Iphumu ya Nlhuku ni waattuna attu we ikekhiaye kuhii wo unafiki. 7Nihohimiacha nttenga wo ikeekhene wo machiri a Nlhuku. Ikerero chihu cho waatakanelha ni wiichaakiha chikhalhaka phi upanga chittu chinothanana awe Nlhuku. 8Ninoothimichiya ni uveehachiya, ninookuphulhachiya ni utotopelhiya.

11Mwaatti ashilhoko ihu attu o Ukorintho, nahoupatakulhelhani kila ittu, khanouvintheni ittu iriyoothe, ninouttunani wo mirima chihu chonkhaye. 12Hii khaninahiya uttunani mwaatti, nansho mwaattiva phi hilhe mirima cho unittuna hii. 13Vano kinowulhumanani mwaatti thoko achishaana aka, mirima chinyu chinittuneke thoko ni hii chineera ihu wo uttunani.
Nhivaraane ni attu ahinonrumelhelha Kuristo
14Nhivaraane ni attu ahinonrumelhelha Nlhuku. Chani chittu cho ikekhia chinowaathana ni chittu cho uhilhoka? Nthuko ni ipiphi chinooria chani ukhalha nlhoko mmoka? 15Kuristo nooria chani waathana ni Nakare? Ntu nonrumelhelha neewanana chani ni attu ahinonrumelhelha? 16Inupa ya Nlhuku inaathana chani ni ulhapelha isinyago unopangiya ni attu ahinchuwenlhe Nlhuku? Ukhalhawaya hiyaano phi Inupa ya Nlhuku ri nkumi. Thoko Nlhuku mwanene cheerilhe awe,
“Kinoweesha nipuro naka uwannyaya,
Ni ukhalha munlhokoni mwaya.
Kinookhalha Nlhuku aya,
Ni ayo anookhalha attu aka.”
17Paahi etu tho Athithi aneera,
“Nthameke variyari aya, mwiihaulheke.
Nhivare ittu inyalhihiye, ni mii kinoupocherani.”
18“Mii kinookhalha phi athumwaninyu,
Ni inyu mwaatti nnookhalha achishaana aka.”
Phi neera aya Athithi o Wooria wonkhaye.
