Ndithudi, iye adzapereka mowolowa manja zinthu zabwino+ kwa amene akumupempha.+
12 Choncho zinthu zonse zimene mukufuna kuti anthu akuchitireni, inunso muwachitire zomwezo.+ Zimenezi ndi zomwe Chilamulo chimafuna komanso zimene aneneri analemba.+

15 Chenjerani ndi aneneri abodza+ amene amabwera kwa inu atavala ngati nkhosa,+ koma mkati mwa mitima yawo ali ngati mimbulu yolusa.+ 16 Mudzawazindikira chifukwa cha zipatso zawo. Anthu sathyola mphesa paminga kapena nkhuyu pamtengo wa nthula, amatero kodi?+ 17 Mofanana ndi zimenezi, mtengo uliwonse wabwino umabereka zipatso zabwino, koma mtengo uliwonse wovunda umabereka zipatso zopanda pake.+ 18 Mtengo wabwino sungabereke zipatso zopanda pake ndipo mtengo wovunda sungabereke zipatso zabwino.+ 19 Mtengo uliwonse umene subereka zipatso zabwino amaudula nʼkuuponya pamoto.+ 20 Choncho anthu amenewo mudzawazindikira chifukwa cha zipatso zawo.+
21 Sikuti aliyense amene amanditchula kuti, ‘Ambuye, Ambuye,’ adzalowa Ufumu wakumwamba, koma yekhayo amene akuchita zimene Atate wanga wakumwamba amafuna.+ 22 Pa tsiku limenelo ambiri adzandiuza kuti: ‘Ambuye, Ambuye,+ kodi ife sitinalosere mʼdzina lanu ndi kutulutsa ziwanda mʼdzina lanu ndiponso kuchita ntchito zambiri zamphamvu mʼdzina lanu?’+ 23 Koma ine ndidzawauza kuti: ‘Sindikukudziwani ngakhale pangʼono! Chokani pamaso panga, anthu osamvera malamulo inu.’+
24 Choncho aliyense amene wamva mawu angawa nʼkuchita zimene wamvazo, adzafanana ndi munthu wanzeru, amene anamanga nyumba yake pathanthwe.+ 25 Ndiyeno kunagwa chimvula champhamvu ndipo madzi anasefukira. Kenako chimphepo chinawomba mwamphamvu, koma nyumbayo sinagwe chifukwa chakuti inakhazikika pathanthwepo. 26 Aliyense amene wamva mawu angawa koma osachita zimene wamvazo adzafanana ndi munthu wopusa amene anamanga nyumba yake pamchenga.+ 27 Ndiye kunagwa chimvula champhamvu ndipo madzi anasefukira. Kenako chimphepo chinawomba mwamphamvu moti nyumbayo inagwa+ ndipo kugwa kwake kunali kwakukulu.”
