17 Mu uthenga wabwinowu, chilungamo+ cha Mulungu chimaululidwa chifukwa cha chikhulupiriro cha munthu.+ Zikatero, chikhulupiriro cha munthuyo chimalimbanso monga mmene Malemba amanenera kuti: “Koma wolungama adzakhala ndi moyo mwa chikhulupiriro chake.”+

22 Kuoneka wolungama pamaso pa Mulungu kumeneku kungatheke mwa kukhulupirira Yesu Khristu,+ ndipo ndi kotheka kwa onse okhala ndi chikhulupiriro.+ Popeza palibe kusiyanitsa.+

5 Koma kudzera mwa mzimu, ife tikuyembekezera mwachidwi chilungamo cholonjezedwacho, chimene chimadza mwa chikhulupiriro.+

9 Ndiponso kuti ndikapezeke wogwirizana ndi iye ndikuchita chilungamo. Osati chilungamo changachanga chobwera ndi chilamulo,+ koma chobwera mwa kukhulupirira+ Khristu, chochokera kwa Mulungu pa maziko a chikhulupiriro.+

5 Anaperekanso chilango padziko lakale lija ndipo sanalilekerere,+ koma anasunga Nowa, mlaliki wa chilungamo,+ pomupulumutsa pamodzi ndi anthu ena 7,+ pamene anabweretsa chigumula+ padziko la anthu osaopa Mulungu.
