¹Asi uzivewo ichi, kuti mumazuva ekupedzisira nguva dzekutambudzika dzichasvika.

¹Zhanes tu mishto, ke mai anglal sar te avel O Kristo avela trutno vriama.

²Nekuti vanhu vachava vanozvida, vanoda mari, vanozvirumbidza, vanozvikudza, vanyombi, vasingateereri vabereki, vasingavongi, vasiri vatsvene,

²Ke le manush rodena swako pengo mishtimos, avela lenge drago lenge, ai avela lenge drago le love, bariarenape, ai barimatange avena, ai dena duma nasul pa Del, ai chi mai pachana o mui penge niamongo, ai chi naisina anda kancheste, ai chi respektina le dieli kai si swunto,

³vasina rudo rwechisikigo, vasingadi kuyanana, vacheri, vasingazvidzori, vane hasha, vasingadi zvakanaka,

³nas le drago iek kavreske, ai bi milako, ai xoxavena sagda, ai kerena chingara, ai chi avela lenge drago o lashimos,

⁴vatengesi, vanongomhanyirira, vane manyawi, vanoda mafaro kupfuura kuda Mwari;

⁴ai avena defial nasul ai mangen te maren ai dukhaven kodola manushen kai si lashe, ai avena nasul penge vortachensa, ai xoliavona sigo, ai avena bare barimatange, ai avela lenge drago mai but e lumia ke sar O Del.

⁵vane mufananidzo weuMwari, asi vakaramba simba rako; ubve pavanhu vakadai.

⁵Zhana ande khangeri numa chi pachanape so ashunena. Ashun, durion katar kasavendar manush.

⁶Nekuti pane ivava varipo vanopinda mudzimba vachiverevedza, vachitapa zvikadzi nzenza, vakaremedzwa nezvivi, vanozvuzvurudzwa nekuchiva kwakasiyana siyana,

⁶Ai uni anda lende den andel khera, ai thon zor pel zhuvlia le kovlia le bezexalia kai si le andel ginduria dieli bi malade,

⁷zvinongogara zvichidzidza, asi hazvitongogoni kusvika paruzivo rwechokwadi.

⁷zhuvlia kai roden sagda te sichon, numa kai shoxar chi aresle te zhanen o chachimos.

⁸Jane naJambere sezvavakapikisa Mozisi, saizvozvo ava vanoramba chokwadi, vanhu vendangariro dzakaodzwa, vakarashwa parutendo.

⁸Sa sar o Jannes ai o Jambres kai chi lenaspe pala Moses. Sakadia kadala manush chi lenpe pala chachimos: won si manush kai lenge goji nai lashi, ai lengo pachamos chi mol kanchi.

⁹Asi havachapfuuriri mberi, nekuti upenzi hwavo hwuchaonekwa kune vose, sezvakazoita hwavowo.

⁹Numa chi zhana dur: ke sa e lumia dela po gor ke dzile le, sar kerdilia le Janneske ai le Jambreske.

¹⁰Asi iwe wakatevera zvakazara dzidziso yangu, mufambiro, chinangwa, rutendo, moyo murefu, rudo, kutsungirira,

¹⁰Numa tu lian tu pala murho sicharimos, ai sar traiivas, ai so sas murhe ginduria, murho pachamos,ai murhi rhavda, murhi dragostia, ai sar inkeravas le Devlesa, ai zhanes murhe vutuimata, ai murhe chinuria.

¹¹kushushwa, nenhamo, zvakandiwira paAndiyokiya, paIkoniyamu, napaRistra, kushushwa kwakadini kwandakatsunga makuri, uye Mwari wakandinunura maari ose.

¹¹Tu zhanes so godi kerdilia pe mansa ando Antioch, ando Iconium, ai ando Listra; ai savendar vutuimata sas ma! Numa O Kristo skepisardia ma anda swako fielo.

¹²Hongu, nevose vanoda kurarama muuMwari muna Kristu Jesu vachashushwa;

¹²Ke kon godi mangel te traiil iek traio vorta le Devlesa ando Jesus Kristo avena chinuime.

¹³asi vanhu vakaipa nevanyengeri vachaenderera mberi pakuipa vachitsausa nekutsauswa.

¹³Numa le manush kai si nasul ai xoxamle zhana sagda mai dur ando nasulimos, ai rimona le kolavren, ai vi won rimonape.

¹⁴Asi iwe rambira pazvinhu zvawakadzidza uye zvakasimbiswa kwauri, uchiziva kuti wakazvidzidza kuna ani,

¹⁴Numa tu inker so sichilian ai so sas tu dino sa che ilesa. Tu zhanes katar savo gazda sichilian.

¹⁵uye kuti kubvira paucheche wakaziva magwaro matsvene, anogona kukuchenjedza kusvikira pakuponeswa kubudikidza nerutendo rwuri muna Kristu Jesu.

¹⁵Ke de sar sanas glata tu zhanes e Swunto Vorba le Devleski, kai sai del tu e goji kai ingerel ka skepimos katar o pachamos ando Jesus Kristo.

¹⁶Rugwaro rwose rwakafemerwa naMwari runobatsira padzidziso, pakutsiura, pakururamisa, nekuraira kuri mukururama,

¹⁶Sa e Swunto Vorba le Devleski avel katar O Del ai traiil pala leste ai trobul te sicharel o chachimos, te sikavel so nai vorta, ai te lasharel le dosha, ai e Vorba sikavel leske sar te traiil vorta,

¹⁷kuti munhu waMwari ave wakakwana, agadzirirwa kwazvo basa rose rakanaka.

¹⁷saxke o manush le Devlesko te avel vorta gata, ai te avel les swako fielo te kerel so godi si mishtimos.
