Mulungu na wanhu wake
1 Nolonga kweli, niye ni munhu wa Chilisito, silonga uvwizi bule. Moyo wangu, kuno wolangulizigwa na Muhe Yelile wolagusa kuwa niye silonga uvwizi. 2 Nolonda kulonga nina luholozi lukulu na usungu haumala muna umoyo wangu. 3 Kwa ichimu cha wanhu wangu, lukuli lwangu mwenyewo na damu yangu! Kwa ichimu chawo nihapulile niduwiligwe na Mulungu na kubaguligwa na Chilisito 4 Wawo ni wanhu wa Isilaeli Mulungu woyawatendile wawe wanage na kuweng'ha utunhizo wake na malagano woyailagane nawo na woyaweng'hile Malagilizo yake na nzila ya kumtambikila yeye na vilagano vake. 5 Wawo ni wazukulu wa Waebulaniya, nayo Chilisito kwa unhu wake, kalawa muna dikabila jawo. Mulungu yotawala vinhu vose yeng'higwe nhogolwa siku zose. Ivo.
6 Silonga chilagano cha Mulungu chipotwa, kwaviya si wanhu wose wa Isilaeli niiwawo wanhu wa Mulungu. 7 Na si welesi wose wa Bulahimu ni wana wa Mulungu. Mbali Mulungu kamulongela Bulahimu, “Welesi wako wizalawa kwa Isaka.” 8 Ivo ilinga na kulonga, si waja welekwe kwa lukuli niiyo wana wa Mulungu, mbali waja wowelekigwe kwa chilagano cha Mulungu niiyo wopetigwa wana wa Bulahimu. 9 Kwaviya chilagano cha Mulungu niicho chino, “Muna ulusita lunogile nizabwela na Sala kezakweleka mwana wa chilume.”
10 Si ivo muhala bule, mbali Lebeka nayo kakala na wana waidi wa chilume kwa tata imwe, niiyo wasaho yetu Isaka. 11 Hata wana wawo waidi viwakalile hawanakwelekigwa, viwakalile wang'hali hawanatenda yanogile na yehile. Mulungu kamsagula imwe viweli fana vidili lungilo jake. 12 Mulungu kamulongela Lebeka, “Mbwanga imkulu kezamsang'hanila mbwanga imdodo.” 13 Fana viyandikigwe muna Yamaandiko Yelile, “Nimulonda Yakobo mbali Esawu nimwihila.”
14 Lelo chilonge choni? Vino Mulungu kana ubagulo? Aka, siivo bule! 15 Kwaviya Mulungu kamulongela Musa,
“Nizamuwonela ubazi munhu ija yonimulonda kumuwonela ubazi,
nizamtendela yanogile munhu ija yonimulonda kumtendela yanogile.”
16 Ivo chila chinhu chohuwila ubazi wa Mulungu, na si chiya chiyolonda munhu hebu chiyosang'hana, mbali kwa ubazi wa Mulungu muhala. 17 Kwaviya Yamaandiko Yelile yolonga vino kwa mfalume wa Misili, “Nikutenda uwe mfalume kwa sang'hano ino, muladi nilaguse ludabwa lwangu muladi zina jangu dimanyike muna isi yose.” 18 Ivo, Mulungu komuwonela ubazi munhu yoyose yomulonda kumuwonela ubazi na kamtenda kuwa moyo mdala munhu yoyose yoyomulonda.
Ubazi wa Mulungu na Ludoko
19 Imwe wenu kodaha kunilongela, “one ihawa ivo, habali Mulungu kowatagusa wanhu? Kwaviya habule munhu yodaha kulema chiyolonda Mulungu?” 20 Mbali weye kwa yelihi, munhu, yuumwidika ivo Mulungu? Nongo haidaha kumuuza ija yaiumbile, “Habali kuniumba fana vino?” 21 Munhu youmba nongo kodaha kusang'hanila ulongo viyolonda na kuumba nongo mbili kwa ulongo uja uja, imwe kwa sang'hano zinogile na imwenga kwa sang'hano za chila siku.
22 Vino ivo voili kwa Mulungu. Kalonda kulagusa ludoko lwake na ludabwa lwake. Mbali kawafunyila umoyo wanhu waja walondeke kuwatagusa kwa ludoko lwake, wawo wolondeka kunangigwa. 23 Nayo mwenyewo kalonda kulagusa utunhizo wake mkulu, uyaching'hile cheye woyachilondile chihokela ubazi wake, cheye woyachisasale kulawa mwanduso chihokele ukulu wake. 24 Kwaviya cheye niiyo wanhu woyachitangile, si kulawa mwa Wayahudi muhala, mbali iviya kulawa wanhu weli siyo Wayahudi. 25 Fana Mndewa viyalongile muna ichitabu cha Hoseya,
“Waja weli ‘si wanhu wangu,’
nizawatanga ‘wanhu wangu,’
Nizalagusa ulondo wangu kwa zisi ziya ning'hali sinazilonda.”
26 Maabaho,
“Hanhu haja howalongiligwe,
‘mweye si wangu,’
baho wezatangigwa wana wa Mulungu yeli ngima.”
27 Iviya Isaya mulotezi wa Mulungu kowalilila Waisilaeli haja hayalongile,
“Hata one Waisilaeli wengi fana msanga wa mhwani,
mbali wondawakomboligwe wadodo.
28 Kwaviya Mndewa hezakalama bule kuitagusa isi yose.”
29 Fana Isaya viyalongile kulonga, “One Mndewa mwene ludabwa lose sigambeyaulekelele welesi wa Isilaeli, chihawile fana Sodoma, chihalingile fana Gomola.”
Paulo kowatambikila Waisilaeli
30 Vino chilonge choni? Wanhu weli siyo Wayahudi hawatendile chinhu muladi wapetigwe wanoga haulongozi wa Mulungu, watendigwa wanoga haulongozi wa Mulungu kufosela uhuwilo wawo, 31 mbali wanhu wa Mulungu, wowakalile wozahila malagilizo ya kuwapeta wanoga haulongozi wa Mulungu, hawayapatile bule malagilizo ya kupetigwa wanoga haulongozi wa Mulungu. 32 Habali hawayapatile? Kwaviya wahuwila yaja yowatendile, hawahuwile uhuwilo bule. Ivo waikwala “Muna idibwe da kuikwalila” 33 Fana viya Yamaandiko Yelile viyolonga,
“Lola nika dibwe uko Sayuni
ijo dizawatenda wanhu waikwale,
nika luwe
louwatenda wanhu wagwe.
Mbali munhu yoyose yomuhuwila yeye hezagumigwa chinyala bule.”
