Abanyefeso 5:1-33
5 Nimwigane Imana+ rero nk’abana ikunda,
2 kandi mubandanye kugendera mu rukundo+, nk’uko na Kristu yabakunze+ akabigura, akaba ishikanwa+ n’ikimazi bihawe Imana ngo bibe akamoto keza+.
3 Ubusambanyi+ n’ubuhumane bw’ubwoko bwose canke umunoho+, no kuvugwa ntibikavugwe muri mwebwe+, nk’uko bibereye abantu beranda+;
4 ntihakabe n’ingeso ziteye isoni+ canke ibiyago vy’ubupfu canke ibijajuro biteye isoni+, ivyo bikaba ari ibintu bitabereye, ahubwo habe ugukenguruka+.
5 Kuko ibi mubizi mukaba kandi muvyemera icese, yuko ata musambanyi+ canke umuntu ahumanye canke umunyamunoho+—bisobanura uwusenga ibigirwamana—azogira ico atorana mu bwami bwa Kristu n’Imana+.
6 Ntihagire umuntu abahendesha amajambo agaragara+, kuko ivyo bintu bihejeje kuvugwa ari vyo bituma uburake bw’Imana buza ku bana b’ubugambarazi+.
7 Nuko rero ntimukifatanye na bo+;
8 kuko kera mwari umwiza+, mugabo ubu muri umuco+ mu bijanye n’Umukama. Mubandanye kugenda nk’abana b’umuco,
9 kuko ivyamwa vy’umuco bigizwe n’ubwoko bwose bw’ukumera neza n’ubugororotsi n’ukuri+.
10 Mugume mwiyemeza neza ivyemerwa+ ku Mukama ivyo ari vyo;
11 kandi mureke gufatanya+ na bo mu bikorwa vyabo birumvye vy’umwiza+, ahubwo nyabuna mubikangire+,
12 kuko ivyo bakorera mu mpisho biteye isoni ku buryo ata n’uwokwubahuka kubicisha mu kanwa+.
13 Kandi ibintu vyose bikangirwa+ birashirwa ahabona n’umuco, kuko ikintu cose gishirwa ahabona+ ari umuco.
14 Ni co gituma ivuga iti: “Ikangure+ wewe wisinzirira, uzuke uve mu bapfuye+, Kristu azoheza akurasire+ umuco.”
15 Nuko rero mugume muraba neza ukuntu mugenda+, ntimugende nk’abatagira ubukerebutsi ariko mugende nk’abantu b’inkerebutsi,
16 mwicungurira umwanya ubereye+, kubera ko imisi ari mibi+.
17 Mureke rero kuba imburabwenge, ahubwo mubandanye gutahura+ ukugomba+ kwa Yehova ukwo ari kwo.
18 Vyongeye, ntimuborerwe+ umuvinyu ari wo urimwo ubuhumbu+, ahubwo mugume mwuzuzwa impwemu+,
19 mubwirana amazaburi+ n’amashemezo+ aturwa Imana be n’indirimbo z’ivy’impwemu, muririmba+ mwongera mujanisha n’umuziki+ mu mitima yanyu mubigirira Yehova,
20 kandi mw’izina ry’Umukama wacu Yezu Kristu mukama mukenguruka+ ku bw’ibintu vyose, mubikengurukira Imana yacu ikaba na Data.
21 Umwe wese muri mwebwe nayobokere mugenziwe+ mutinya Kristu.
22 Abagore bayobokere+ abagabo babo nk’uko bayobokera Umukama,
23 kubera ko umugabo ari umutwe w’umugore wiwe+ nk’uko na Kristu ari umutwe w’ishengero+, akaba umukiza w’uyo mubiri.
24 Nkako, nk’uko ishengero riyobokera Kristu, abe ari ko n’abagore bayobokera abagabo babo muri vyose+.
25 Bagabo, mubandanye gukunda abagore banyu+ nk’uko na Kristu yakunze ishengero akaryigura+,
26 kugira ngo aryeze+, aryuhagize amazi biciye kuri rya jambo+,
27 kugira ngo azane ishengero kuri we nyene mu bwiza bwakaka bwaryo+, ritagira agatosi canke umunkanyari canke ico ari co cose muri mwene ivyo, ahubwo ribe ryeranda kandi ritagira ikirabagu+.
28 Ukwo ni ko abagabo babwirizwa gukunda abagore babo nk’imibiri yabo bwite. Uwukunda umugore wiwe aba yikunda,
29 kuko ata muntu yigeze kwanka umubiri wiwe bwite; ahubwo arawugaburira akawubungabungana urukundo+, nk’uko na Kristu agirira ishengero,
30 kubera ko turi ibihimba vy’umubiri wiwe+.
31 “Ni co gituma umugabo azosiga se na nyina akifatanya* n’umugore wiwe, kandi abo babiri bazoba umubiri umwe+.”
32 Iryo banga ryeranda+ rirakomeye. Aha ndiko mvuga ku bijanye na Kristu be n’ishengero+.
33 Yamara rero kandi, umwe wese muri mwebwe ku ruhande rwiwe akunde umugore wiwe+ nk’uko yikunda; umugore na we ategerezwa kugirira umugabo wiwe icubahiro+ kigera kure.
