Tsamba Yakutoma Kuna Timoti 3:1-16
3 Mafala awa ndi akunyindirika: Khala munthu akuwangisira toera akhale muyangʼaniri,*+ iye asafuna basa yadidi.
2 Mbwenye muyangʼaniri* asafunika akhale munthu wakusowa mathangwi akusandikwa nawo, mamuna wa nkazi mʼbodzi basi, wakulinganira mu pinthu pinacita iye, wandzeru zadidi,*+ wakutsalakana mwadidi pinthu,+ wakutambira alendo,+ wakuthema toera kupfundzisa.
3 Nee asafunika kukhala nyamwera,+ nee wakumenya munthu, mbwenye akhale wa maonero akulinganira,+ tayu wanthonga.+ Nee asafunika kufuna kakamwe kobiri.+
4 Asafunika kutsogolera mwadidi anthu a panyumba pace,* anace asafunika akhale akubvera na ntima onsene.+
5 (Thangwi khala munthu nkhabe dziwa kutsogolera anthu a panyumba pace, anakwanisa tani kutsalakana mpingo wa Mulungu?),
6 nee asafunika kukhala munthu adatoma kwene cincino kukhulupira Kristu,+ toera akhonde kudzikuza kakamwe,* mbatongwa munjira ibodzi ene ninga mudatongerwa Dyabo.
7 Kusiyapo pyenepi, iye asafunikambo kulongwa mwadidi* na anthu akunja,+ toera akhonde kupwazwa,* mbagwa mu nsampha wa Dyabo.
8 Munjira ibodzi ene, atumiki akutumikira asafunika kukhala akulemedzeka, akukhonda kunyengeza pakulonga,* nee asafunika kumwa kakamwe vinyu, nee akufuna kuwina pinthu munjira yakukhonda kulungama.+
9 Asafunika kutowezera* cibisobiso cakucena ca cikhulupiro, mbakhala na cikumbuntima cakucena.+
10 Pontho, pakutoma iwo asafunika kudingwa* toera aoniwe khala athema; buluka penepo, mbatumikire ninga atumiki, angasowa mathangwi akupambizirwa nawo.+
11 Munjira ibodzi ene, akazi asafunika akhale akulemedzeka, tayu anyamapsweda,+ asafunika akhale akulinganira mu pinthu pinacita iwo, akukhulupirika mu pinthu pyonsene.+
12 Ntumiki wakutumikira asafunika akhale mamuna wa nkazi mʼbodzi basi, pontho atsogolere mwadidi anace na anthu a panyumba pace.
13 Thangwi amuna anatsogolera mwadidi asawina mbiri ya makhaliro adidi, pontho anakwanisa kulonga na cinyindiro consene pya cikhulupiro cinagumanika mwa Kristu Yezu.
14 Ine ndiri kukulembera pinthu pyenepi, maseze ndisadikhira kuti ndinabwera kuna iwe cincino,
15 toera ndingadembuka, udziwe makhaliro anafunika iwe kupangiza ninga munthu wa panyumba ya Mulungu,+ yakuti ndi mpingo wa Mulungu wa mʼmaso, wakuti usaphedzera, mbutsidzikiza undimomwene.
16 Mwandimomwene, cibisobiso ceneci cakucena cinalonga pya kukhala wakuperekeka kuna Mulungu ndi cikulu kakamwe: ‘Yezu adzakhala munthu,+ aoniwa kuti ndi wakulungama mu nzimu,+ aonekera kuna aanju,+ anthu a madzindza anango amwazirwa mphangwa zinalonga pya iye,+ akhulupirwa na anthu pa dziko yapantsi,+ mbatambirwa na mbiri kudzulu.’
