Iyo wose uba ukwumva, ukumoterwa kwobaye hehe? 18 Mugabo noneho Imana yashize ibihimba mu mubiri, kimwe cose muri vyo, nk’uko yabishatse+.
19 Iyo vyose biba igihimba kimwe+, umubiri wobaye hehe? 20 Mugabo noneho ni ibihimba vyinshi+, yamara bikaba umubiri umwe. 21 Ijisho ntirishobora kubwira ikiganza ngo: “Sindagukeneye”; eka n’umutwe ntushobora kubwira ibirenge ngo: “Sindabakeneye.” 22 Ahubwo riho, uko biri, ni uko ibihimba vy’umubiri bisa n’ibigoyagoya+ kuruta bikenewe, 23 kandi ibihimba vy’umubiri twiyumvira ko biteye iteka buhoro, ivyo turabikikuza iteka rirushirije kugwira+, ku buryo ibihimba vy’umubiri wacu bisa n’ibidahimbaye ari vyo birushirije kuba ibiteye igomwe cane, 24 mu gihe ibihimba vy’umubiri wacu vyiza ata co bikeneye. Yamara rero, Imana yarateranije umubiri, iha iteka rirushirije kugwira igihimba cari n’ico gihajije, 25 kugira ngo ntihabe ukwicamwo ibice mu mubiri, mugabo ngo ibihimba vyawo bibabarane kumwe+. 26 Kandi iyo igihimba kimwe kibabaye, ibindi bihimba vyose bibabarana+ na co; canke iyo igihimba kimwe kininahajwe+, ibindi bihimba vyose binezeranwa na co+.
27 Namwe muri umubiri wa Kristu, umwe wese muri mwebwe akaba ari igihimba+. 28 Kandi Imana yashize ivyo bihimba bitandukanye mw’ishengero+: ubwa mbere intumwa+, ubwa kabiri abahanuzi+, ubwa gatatu abigisha+; hanyuma ibikorwa vy’ububasha+, hanyuma ingabirano z’ugukiza+; ibikorwa vy’ingirakamaro+, ubushobozi bwo kuyobora+, indimi zitandukanye+. 29 Mbega bose ni intumwa? Mbega bose ni abahanuzi? Mbega bose ni abigisha? Mbega bose bakora ibikorwa vy’ububasha? 30 Mbega bose bafise ingabirano z’ugukiza? Mbega bose bavuga mu ndimi+? Mbega bose ni abasobanuzi+? 31 Mugabo mugume muronderana umwete ingabirano ziruta izindi+. Yamara jewe ndabereka inzira ihebuje+.
