¹ Nimkulikile ubhupendo, nukugomba chane ikarama za mumutima, lakini chane mlonke ukutubu. ² Maana wene hayanena kwiluga, agamba nabhantu, Halafu agamba na Mungu; maana ntawuliho ategeza lakini hayanena hanena amagambo yisili mumutuma wage. ³ Bali wene atuvye agamba na bhantu amagambo yukubhubhaka, nukubhafaliji, nugubhatiya umwoyo. ⁵ Nanje hangomba mwemwe mwese mnene kwi ngambo, lakini chane mlonke ugutubu; kukugilango wewe atubuje, kukugilango uwutuvye numkulu ugusumba wene hayanena kwi lugha, labda isipokuwa ugufasili, ili kwikusudi ishengelo lilonke ukubhakwa. ⁶ Ila sasa, ndugu, nziye iwanyu nukunena kwilugha, ndabhalonkesha iki, labda hanena na mwemwe kwinzila yubhufunuo, au kwinzila yubhufunuo? ⁷ Nibhintu bhitabhanye ubhuhayi bhivanaho isauti, ikiwa nifilimbi, au ikinubi, ibhitavaho isauti zibhanye is auti, bhilomenyekana nte ninsumu yinde hayipigwa kwifilimbi au kukinubi? ⁸ Kukugilango ibalsgumu hayivanamo isauti yitamenyekana, ninde alokwikola tayali kubhintu. ⁹ Ityo ityo na nivyo, msipo toa kululimyi ni jambo dhahili, liya ligambwa lilomenyekana nte?
