5 Khristu wakatifwatura kuti tiŵe na wanangwa uwu. Ntheura mwimilire nganganga,+ ndipo mungazomerezganga yayi kukakikaso mu joko la wuzga.+

Vinthu ivi vikususkana, ntheura vinthu ivyo mukukhumba kuchita ndivyo mukuchita yayi.+ 18 Kweniso, usange mukulongozgeka na mzimu, muli pasi pa dango yayi.
19 Sono milimo ya thupi yikuwonekera, ndipo ni uzaghali,*+ ukazuzi, ukwakwa,*+ 20 kusopa vikozgo, kuchita vyamizimu,*+ maulwani, zawe, sanji, kukalipa, mphindano, kugaŵikana, kugaluka, 21 bina, uloŵevu,+ kwenda mu viphikiro ivyo mukuŵa vyongo, na vinyake vyanthena.+ Pa vinthu ivi nkhumuchenjezgeranithu, nga umo nkhamuchenjezgerani kale, kuti awo ŵakuchita vinthu ivi ŵazamuhara yayi Ufumu wa Chiuta.+
22 Kweni vipambi vya mzimu ntchitemwa, chimwemwe, mtende, kuzikira, lusungu,+ uwemi, chipulikano, 23 kuzika, na kujikora.+ Palije dango lakususkana na vinthu ivi. 24 Kweniso, awo mba Khristu Yesu, ŵali kukhoma pa khuni thupi pamoza na chilakolako chake* na makhumbiro ghake.+
