Omukristaayo owa Kumpi

“Onsendasenda nfuuke Omukristaayo mu kaseera kano akatono bwe kati?”

ERA bangi abatuuka awo: kasookedde eddiini y’Ekikristaayo ebeerawo mu nsi, mu buli mulembe ne mu buli ggwanga babaddewo bangi abaali kumpi okusendebwa okufuuka Abakristaayo. Naye olwokuba nga tekigasa mu maaso ga Katonda okutuuka awo wokka, kitusaanira nnyo okulowooza,

Ekisooka. Kiki ekitegeezebwa mu kubeera kumpi,

Ekyokubiri. Kiki ekiri mu kubeera ddala, Omukristaayo.

I. (I.) 1. Kale, mu kubeera kumpi n’Omukristaayo mulimu, Ekisooka, obwesimbu bw’abakaafiiri. Sirowooza nti waliwo anaawakanya kino; naddala, kubanga obwesimbu bw’abakaafiiri kwe njogera wano, si buli obwo obwatendekebwa mu byawandiikibwa by’abagezigezi baabwe bokka, wabula obwo abakaafiiri aba bulijjo bwe baali bayagalirananga bokka na bannaabwe, era bangi ku bo bwe baakolanga ddala. Amateeka ga buno gaali gabayigiriza nti tebasaana kubeera batali batuukirivu; okutaggya bya muliraanwa waabwe, oba lwa kunyaga oba lwa bbi; obutanyigiriza baavu, wadde okubowooza omuntu yenna; obutalimba wadde okukumpanya omwavu oba omugagga, mu nsuubulagana yonna gye baalinanga nabo; obutabbira muntu yenna kya mu kukola kwe; era, singa kisoboka, obutabanja muntu yenna kintu kyonna.

2. Ate nate: abakaafiiri aba bulijjo baakkiriza nti amazima nago gaali gagwanidde okussibwako ekitiibwa, nga bwe kityo n’obwenkanya. Era, olw’ekyo, tebaakyawanga oyo eyalayirira obulimba yekka, eyayita Katonda okuba omujulizi ku bulimba; wabula ne bwe baakyawanga oyo eyamanyibwanga okuba omuwaayiriza wa muliraanwa we, eyawaayiriza omuntu yenna eby’obulimba. Era ddala, tebaayisanga bulungi n’akatono abalimba ab’engeri zonna abagenderera okulimba, nga babayita ensonyi z’abantu, n’ebiwuka ebyonoona ekitundu ky’abantu.

3. Ate era: waaliwo engeri y’okwagala n’okuyambagana gye baasuubiranga okuva eri bannaabwe. Baasuubiranga buli kuyamba omuntu kw’ayinza okuwa munne, awatali kwerumya. Era kino tebaakikoma ku bikolwa bino ebitono eby’ekimuntu ebikolebwa awatali kusaasaanya nsimbi wadde okuteganira, wabula ne ku kuliisa abayala, singa baalina emmere ey’okuwaayo; okwambaza abali obwereere engoye zaabwe ezaali zisukkiridde; era, mu bukulu, okuwa buli eyeetaaganga ebintu bye baali batayaagalira bo bennyini. Okutuukira awo, mu ngeri esembayo obwewombeefu, obwesimbu bw’abakaafiiri bwe bwakoma; ekintu ekisooka ekitegeezebwa mu kubeera kumpi n’Omukristaayo.

(II.) 4. Ekintu eky’okubiri ekitegeezebwa mu kubeera kumpi n’Omukristaayo, kwe kubeera n’ekifaananyi ky’okutya Katonda; okutya Katonda okwo okulagirwa mu njiri ya Kristo; okubeera n’enfaanana ey’okungulu ey’Omukristaayo ow’amazima. Bw’atyo, Omukristaayo owa kumpi takola kintu kyonna enjiri ky’egaana. Talayirira linnya lya Katonda bwereere; asabira omukisa, so takolimira; talayira n’akatono, wabula ebigambo bye biba nti, weewaawo, weewaawo; nedda, nedda. Tavvoola lunaku lwa Mukama, so talukkiriza kuvvoolwa, wadde omugenyi ali mu miryango gye. Si kwewala kwenna okwenda, obwenzi, n’obutali bulongoofu byokka, wabula na buli kigambo oba okutunula okutuusa eri ebyo mu ngeri entereevu oba etali ntereevu; weewaawo, ne buli bigambo eby’obutaliimu, ng’eewala okuwaayiriza, okwogera eby’okumabega, okusaasaanya eŋgambo, okwogera ebibi, ne “eby’obusirusiru, n’okubalaata ebitasaana”—eutrapelia, engeri ya mpisa mu ndowooza y’omuyivu w’empisa omukaafiiri;—mu bufunze, okuva mu mboozi zonna ezitali “za kugasa mu kuzimba,” era eza, olw’ekyo, “zinakuwaza Omwoyo Omutukuvu wa Katonda, gwe twateekebwako akabonero okutuusa ku lunaku olw’okununulibwa.”

5. Yeewala “omwenge oguleetera obutamiivu”; n’ebinyumu eby’obugwagwa n’omululu. Yeewala, nga bw’asobola, entalo zonna n’empaka, ng’afuba bulijjo okubeera mu mirembe n’abantu bonna. Era, bw’akolwa obubi, teyeesasuza, so tayanukula bubi na bubi. Si mwogezi, si mulwanyi, si munyoomi, ku nsobi oba ku bunafu bwa muliraanwa we. Takola bubi, tanuubula, wadde okunakuwaza omuntu yenna mu bugenderevu; naye mu byonna akola era ayogera ng’agoberera etteeka eryo ery’olwatu, “Buli ky’otoyagala munno akukole, tokikola munno.”

6. Era mu kukola obulungi, teyeekoma ku bikolwa by’ekisa ebyangu era ebitakaluba, wabula afuba era abonaabona olw’okugasa abangi, alyoke ayambe abamu mu ngeri yonna. Newaakubadde okuteganira oba okulumwa, “buli omukono gwo kye gugenda okukola, kikole n’amaanyi go gonna;” oba kiba ku lwa mikwano gye, oba ku lw’abalabe be; ku lw’ababi, oba ku lw’abalungi. Kubanga ng’“atagayaala” mu kino, oba mu “mulimu” gwonna, “bwe kinaabanga kisobose” akolera “abantu bonna” “ebirungi,” engeri zonna ez’obulungi; eri emyoyo gyabwe n’emibiri gyabwe. Anenya ababi, ayigiriza abatamanyi, anyweza abasagaasagana, azzaamu abalungi amaanyi, era abudaabuda abanakuwavu. Afuba okuzuukusa abo abeebase; okukulembera abo Katonda b’amaze okuzuukusa okubatuusa ku “nsulo eyaggulirwa olw’ekibi n’obutali bulongoofu,” balyoke banaabiremu babeere abalongoofu; n’okukubiriza abo abaalokolebwa olw’okukkiriza, okuweesa enjiri ya Kristo ekitiibwa mu byonna.

7. Oyo alina ekifaananyi ky’okutya Katonda akozesa n’eby’okufuna ekisa; weewaawo, byonna, era mu buli kaseera. Agenda bulijjo mu nnyumba ya Katonda; era ekyo, si nga empisa y’abamu bwe bakola, abajja mu maaso g’Oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo nga bajjudde zaabu n’engoye ez’ebbeeyi, oba mu kwewaanawaana kwonna okw’okwambala, ne, oba lwa mpisa zaabwe ez’ekitalo eri bannaabwe, oba lwa ssanyu ery’obusirusiru ery’enneeyisa yaabwe, beeggyako okwerimba kwonna okw’ekifaananyi awamu n’amaanyi g’okutya Katonda. Singa Katonda ayagala tewabeerangawo n’omu wakati mu ffe agwa mu kunenyezebwa kwe kumu! abajja mu nnyumba eno, oboolyawo, nga batunulatunula, oba n’obubonero bwonna obw’okuteefaayo n’obutassaayo mwoyo, wadde oluusi bayinza okulabika nga basaba Katonda okuwa omukisa ku ekyo kye batandika; abo, mu kuweereza okwo okw’entiisa, oba beebase, oba begalamidde mu kifo ekyanguyiza okwo; oba, ng’abalowooza nti Katonda yeebase, nga boogeraganya, oba nga batunula wano ne wali, ng’abatalina kye bakola. Ne bano baleme kuwaayirizibwa kifaananyi kya kutya Katonda. Nedda; oyo alina n’ekyo, yeeyisa n’obunyiikivu n’okussaayo omwoyo, mu buli kitundu ky’okuweereza okwo okw’ekitiibwa. Naddala, bw’asemberera emmeeza ya Mukama, si na nneeyisa nnyangu oba etaliimu, wabula n’endabika, n’enkola, n’enneeyisa ebyogera obutalina kirala wabula nti, “Katonda, onsaasire, nze omwonoonyi!”

8. Ku kino, bwe twongerako okusaba kw’amaka okutasalako, okukolebwa abo abakulira amaka, n’okwawula ebiseera olw’okwogera ne Katonda mu kyama, awamu n’obunyiikivu obwa buli lunaku mu nneeyisa; oyo akola eddiini eno ey’okungulu obutakyukakyuka, alina ekifaananyi ky’okutya Katonda. Waliwo ekintu kimu kyokka ekyetaagisa okumufuula kumpi n’Omukristaayo, era ekyo, bwe bwesimbu.

(III.) 9. Obwesimbu kwe njogera, mwe muli emmisingi egy’amazima egy’omunda egy’eddiini, ebikolwa bino eby’okungulu mwe biva. Era, mazima ddala bwe tuba nga tetulina buno, tetulina bwesimbu bwa bakaafiiri; nedda, ne butono butyo obunaamala okusaba kw’omuyimbi Omukaafiiri Omwepikureya. Ne ono omunaku, mu biseera bye eby’obutamiivu, asobola okwatula nti,

Oderunt peccare boni, virtutis amore;

Oderunt peccare mali, formidine poenae.

[Abantu abalungi beewala ekibi olw’okwagala empisa ennungi;

Abantu ababi beewala ekibi olw’okutya okubonerezebwa.]

Bwe kityo, singa omuntu yeewala okukola obubi olw’okwewala okubonerezebwa kyokka, Non pasces in cruce corvos, [Toliwanikibwa.], bw’ayogera Omupagani; awo, “eyo y’empeera yo.” Naye era ne ye tayinza kukkiriza muntu ng’ono atalina bubi kubeera n’Omukaafiiri omulungi. Kale, singa omuntu yenna, olw’ensonga y’emu, kwe kugamba, okwewala okubonerezebwa, okwewala okufiirwa mikwano gye, oba amagoba ge, oba erinnya lye, teyeewala kukola bubi kyokka, wabula n’akola ebirungi bingi nnyo; weewaawo, n’akozesa eby’okufuna ekisa byonna; naye era tetuyinza mu butuufu bwonna kugamba nti, ono muntu ali kumpi n’Omukristaayo. Bw’aba nga talina musingi mulungi mu mutima gwe, aba mukuusa bukuusa.

10. Obwesimbu, kale, buteekwa okubeera mu kubeera kumpi n’Omukristaayo; ekigendererwa eky’amazima okuweereza Katonda, okwegomba okw’omutima okukola by’ayagala. Kiteekwa okubeeramu nti omuntu abeere n’endowooza ey’amazima ey’okusanyusa Katonda mu byonna; mu mboozi ze zonna; mu bikolwa bye byonna; mu buli ky’akola oba ky’aleka. Ekigendererwa kino, singa omuntu yenna aba kumpi n’Omukristaayo, kiyita mu bulamu bwe bwonna. Guno gwe musingi ogutambuza, mu kukola kwe obulungi, mu kwewala kwe obubi, ne mu kukozesa kwe ebiragiro bya Katonda.

11. Naye wano kirabika wanaabuuzibwa nti, “Kisoboka omuntu yenna omulamu okutuuka wano, ate ne yeekaba kumpi n’Omukristaayo kyokka”? Kiki ekirala okusinga kino ekiyinza okubeera mu kubeera Omukristaayo ddala? Nziramu nti, Ekisooka, nti kisoboka okutuuka wano, ate ng’omuntu akyali kumpi n’Omukristaayo, kino nkiyiga, si mu bigambo bya Katonda byokka, wabula ne mu bujulizi obw’amazima obw’obumanyirivu.

12. Ab’oluganda, obunene bwe “obuvumu bwange gye muli mu nsonga eno.” Era “Munsonyiwe ekyonoono ekyo,” bwe njatula obusirusiru bwange ku kasolya k’ennyumba, ku lwammwe ne ku lw’enjiri. —Munzikirize, kale, njogere awatali kwekomako ku nze nnyini, nga bwe njogera ku muntu omulala. Nsiimye okutoowazibwa, mmwe mulyoke mugulumizibwe, era okweyongera okuba ow’ekivve olw’ekitiibwa kya Mukama wange.

13. Nnatuuka wano okumala emyaka mingi, nga bangi ab’omu kifo kino bwe basobola okujulira; nga nkozesa obunyiikivu okwewala obubi bwonna, n’okubeera n’omuntu ow’omunda atalina musango; nga ngula ekiseera; nga ngula buli kkubo ery’okukolera abantu bonna ebirungi byonna; nga nkozesa bulijjo era n’obwegendereza eby’okufuna ekisa byonna eby’olukale n’eby’ekyama; nga nfuba okubeera n’obunyiikivu obutanyeenyezebwa mu nneeyisa, mu biseera byonna, ne mu bifo byonna; era, Katonda ye mujulizi wange, gwe nnyimirira mu maaso ge, nga nkola bino byonna mu bwesimbu; nga nnina ekigendererwa eky’amazima okuweereza Katonda; okwegomba okw’omutima okukola by’ayagala mu byonna; okusanyusa oyo eyanyita “okulwana okulungi,” n’“okunyweza obulamu obutaggwaawo.” Naye omuntu wange ow’omunda anjulira mu Mwoyo Omutukuvu, nti mu kiseera kino kyonna nnali kumpi n’Omukristaayo kyokka.

II. Bwe kibuuzibwa nti, “Kiki ekirala okusinga kino ekitegeezebwa mu kubeera Omukristaayo ddala?” Nziramu nti,

(I.) 1. Ekisooka. Okwagala Katonda. Kubanga bw’atyo ekigambo kye bwe kigamba nti, “Yagala Katonda wo n’omutima gwo gwonna, n’omwoyo gwo gwonna, n’amagezi go gonna, n’amaanyi go gonna.” Okwagala okufaanana kuno, kuli nga kumira omutima gwonna, nga kukuŋŋaanya okwegomba kwonna, nga kujjuza obusobozi bwonna obw’omwoyo era nga kukozesa obungi bwonna obw’amaanyi gaagwo. Oyo ayagala bw’atyo Mukama Katonda we, omwoyo gwe bulijjo “gusanyukira Katonda omulokozi we.” Essanyu lye liri mu Mukama, Mukama we era Byonna bye, gwe “mu buli kintu yeebaza. Erinnya lye n’okujjukira kwe kwe kwegomba kw’omutima gwe kwonna.” Omutima gwe bulijjo gukaaba nti, “Ani gwe nnina mu ggulu, wabula ggwe? Era tewali na kimu ku nsi kye neetaaga bwe mba naawe.” Mazima, kiki ky’ayinza okwegomba okuggyako Katonda? Si nsi, oba ebintu by’ensi: kubanga “akomereddwa eri ensi, n’ensi ekomereddwa eri ye.” Akomereddwa eri “okwegomba kw’omubiri, n’okwegomba kw’amaaso, n’okwekuluntaza okw’obulamu.” Weewaawo, afiiridde amalala ag’engeri zonna: kubanga “okwagala tekwekuluntaza” naye “oyo abeera mu kwagala, abeera mu Katonda, ne Katonda abeera mu ye,” wa wansi w’ekitagambika mu maaso ge ye.

(II.) 2. Ekintu eky’okubiri ekitegeezebwa mu kubeera Omukristaayo ddala, kwe kwagala muliraanwa waffe. Kubanga bw’atyo Mukama waffe bwe yagamba mu bigambo bino, “Yagalanga muliraanwa wo nga gwe bwe weeyagala wekka.” Omuntu yenna bw’abuuza nti, “Muliraanwa wange ye ani?” tuddamu nti, Buli muntu yenna mu nsi; buli mwana wa Oyo ali Kitaawe w’emyoyo gy’abalina omubiri bonna. So tetuyinza mu ngeri yonna kuggyamu balabe baffe oba abalabe ba Katonda n’emyoyo gyabwe gennyini. Naye buli Mukristaayo ayagala ne bano nga bwe yeeyagala yekka, weewaawo, “nga Kristo bwe yatwagala.” Oyo ayagala okutegeera obulungi engeri okwagala kuno kwe kuli, ayinza okulowooza ku ngeri Pawulo Omutukuvu gye yakunnyonnyolamu. Kuli “kugumiikiriza era kwa kisa.” “Tekulina buggya.” Tekulaba na mangu mu kusala emisango. “Tekwekuluntaza;” naye kufuula oyo ayagala, asembayo obuwombeefu, omuweereza wa bonna. Okwagala “tekukola bitasaana,” naye “kufuuka byonna eri abantu bonna.” “Tekunoonya byakwo;” wabula obulungi bw’abalala bwokka, balyoke balokolebwe. “Okwagala tekunyiiga mangu.” Kugoba obusungu, oyo alina bwo aba abulwa okwagala. “Tekusiba kibi ku mwoyo. Tekusanyukira bitali bya butuukirivu, wabula kusanyukira mazima. Kugumira byonna, kukkiriza byonna, kusuubira byonna era kugumiikiriza byonna.”

(III.) 3. Waliwo ekintu ekirala kimu ekiyinza okulowoozebwako ku bwakyo, wadde nga tekiyinza mazima kwawukana ku ekyo ekikiisoose, ekitegeezebwa mu kubeera Omukristaayo ddala; era ekyo gwe musingi gwa byonna, kwe kukkiriza. Ebintu ebirungi ennyo byogerwa ku kino mu bigambo bya Katonda byonna. “Buli,” bw’ayogera omuyigirizwa omwagalwa, “akkiriza aba mwana wa Katonda.” “Naye bonna abaamusembeza, yabawa obuyinza okufuuka abaana ba Katonda; be bo abakkiriza erinnya lye.” Era “kuno kwe kuwangula okwawangula ensi, kwe kukkiriza kwaffe.” Weewaawo, Mukama waffe yennyini alangirira nti, “Oyo akkiriza Omwana alina obulamu obutaggwaawo; era talisingibwa musango, wabula aliba avudde mu kufa ng’atuuse mu bulamu.”

4. Naye wano omuntu yenna aleme kulimba mwoyo gwe. “Kigwanidde okwetegereza n’obwegendereza, nti okukkiriza okutaleeta kwenenya, n’okwagala, n’ebikolwa ebirungi byonna, si kwe kukkiriza okwo okulamu okutuufu, wabula kwa kufa era kwa balubaale. Kubanga ne balubaale bakkiriza nti Kristo yazaalibwa omuwala embeerera: nti yakola ebyamagero eby’engeri zonna, nga yeeyatula okuba Katonda yennyini: nti, ku lwaffe, yabonaabona okufa okulumya ennyo, okutununula okuva mu kufa okutaggwaawo; nti yazuukira ku lunaku olw’okusatu: nti yalinnya mu ggulu, era atuula ku mukono ogwa ddyo ogwa Kitaawe era ku nkomerero y’ensi alikomawo okusalira omusango abalamu n’abafu. Ebitundu bino eby’okukkiriza kwaffe balubaale babikkiriza, era bwe batyo bakkiriza byonna ebyawandiikibwa mu Ndagaano Enkadde n’Empya. Naye newaakubadde okukkiriza kuno kwonna, baba balubaale bulubaale. Basigala mu mbeera yaabwe ey’okuzikirira nga babuliddwa okukkiriza kw’Ekikristaayo okw’amazima ddala.” [Homily on the Salvation of Man.]

5. “Okukkiriza kw’Ekikristaayo okutuufu era okw’amazima kwe” (nga tugenda mu maaso n’ebigambo by’Ekkanisa yaffe yennyini), “si kukkiriza kwokka nti Ebyawandiikibwa Ebitukuvu n’Ebitundu by’Okukkiriza kwaffe bya mazima, wabula n’okuba n’obwesige n’obukakafu obw’amazima okulokolebwa mu kuzikirira okutaggwaawo olwa Kristo. Bwe bwesige n’obukakafu obw’amazima omuntu bw’alina mu Katonda, nti, olw’ebikolwa bya Kristo, ebibi bye bisonyiyiddwa, era atabaganyiziddwa n’ekisa kya Katonda; kwe kuva omutima ogw’okwagala, okugondera ebiragiro bye.”

6. Kale, buli alina okukkiriza kuno, “okulongoosa omutima” (olw’amaanyi ga Katonda, abeera omwo) okuguggya mu “malala, obusungu, okwegomba, mu butali butuukirivu bwonna” mu “buli kintu ekyonoona omubiri n’omwoyo;” okugujjuza okwagala okusinga okufa amaanyi, eri Katonda n’eri abantu bonna; okwagala okukola emirimu gya Katonda, nga kwenyumiririza okusaasaanya n’okumalibwawo ku lw’abantu bonna, era okugumira n’essanyu, si kuvvoolwa kwa Kristo kwokka, okukudaalirwa, okunyoomebwa, n’okukyayibwa abantu bonna, wabula ne buli amagezi ga Katonda kye gakkiriza ettima ly’abantu oba balubaale okuleeta,—buli alina okukkiriza kuno okukola bwe kityo olw’okwagala si wa kumpi kwokka, wabula ali Omukristaayo ddala.

7. Naye b’aluwa abajulizi abalamu ab’ebintu bino? Mbeegayirira, ab’oluganda, nga mu maaso ga Katonda oyo “Okufa n’okuzikirira biri mu maaso ga Mukama, n’okulaba alaba nnyo emitima gy’abaana b’abantu!”—buli omu ku mmwe abuuze omutima gwe nti, “Ndi omu ku muwendo ogwo? Nkola obwenkanya, okusaasira, n’amazima okutuuka awo ng’amateeka g’obwesimbu bw’abakaafiiri bwe gaagamba? Bwe kiba bwe kityo, nnina enfaanana ey’okungulu ey’Omukristaayo? ekifaananyi ky’okutya Katonda? Nneewala obubi,—buli ekigaanibwa mu Kigambo kya Katonda ekyawandiikibwa? Buli birungi omukono gwange bye gusanga okukola, mbikola n’amaanyi gange? Nkozesa n’obunyiikivu ebiragiro bya Katonda byonna mu buli kaseera? Era bino byonna mbikola n’ekigendererwa n’okwegomba okw’amazima okusanyusa Katonda mu byonna?”

8. Abamu ku mmwe temumanyi nti temwatuukanga wano; nti temubanga na kumpi n’Omukristaayo; nti temutuuse ku mutindo gw’obwesimbu bw’abakaafiiri; wadde okutuuka ku kifaananyi ky’okutya Katonda okw’Ekikristaayo?—era n’okusingawo Katonda talabanga bwesimbu mu mmwe, ekigendererwa eky’amazima eky’okumusanyusa mu byonna. Temwabangako na kutegeka kuwaayo bigambo byammwe n’emirimu gyammwe, emirimu gyammwe, okuyiga kwammwe, ebinyumu byammwe, eri ekitiibwa kye. Temwabangako na kutegeka wadde okwegomba, nti buli kye mwakola kikolebwe “mu linnya lya Mukama Yesu,” era nga bwe kityo kibeere “ssaddaaka ey’omwoyo, esiimibwa Katonda mu Kristo.”

9. Naye, ka tugambe nti mwabikola, ebigendererwa ebirungi n’okwegomba okulungi bifuula omuntu Omukristaayo? Nedda n’akatono, okuggyako nga bivaamu ekirungi. “Amagombe gaaliddwa,” bw’ayogera omu, “n’ebigendererwa ebirungi.” Ekibuuzo ekikulu ekya byonna, kale, kisigalawo. Okwagala kwa Katonda kufukiddwa mu mutima gwo? Osobola okukaaba nti, “Katonda wange, era Byonna byange”? Tolina ky’oyaagala okuggyako ye? Osanyufu mu Katonda? Ye kitiibwa kyo, essanyu lyo, engule yo ey’okujaguza? Era etteeka lino liwandiikiddwa mu mutima gwo, nti, “Buli ayagala Katonda ayagalenga ne muganda we”? Kale oyagala muliraanwa wo nga bwe weeyagala wekka? Oyagala buli muntu, ne balabe bo, ne balabe ba Katonda, ng’emmeeme yo yennyini? nga Kristo bwe yakwagala? Weewaawo, okkiriza nti Kristo yakwagala, ne yeewaayo ku lulwo? Olina okukkiriza mu musaayi gwe? Okkiriza nti Omwana gw’Endiga owa Katonda aggyeewo ebibi byo, n’abisuula ng’ejjinja mu buziba bw’ennyanja? nti aggyeewo ebiwandiiko ebyakuvunaananga, n’abibaggyako, ng’abikomerera ku musaalaba gwe? Olina ddala okununulibwa olw’omusaayi gwe, kwe kusonyiyibwa ebibi byo? Era Omwoyo we akakasa wamu n’omwoyo gwo, nti oli omwana wa Katonda?

10. Katonda era Kitaawe wa Mukama waffe Yesu Kristo, kaakano ayimiridde wakati mu ffe, amanyi nti, omuntu yenna bw’afa nga talina kukkiriza kuno n’okwagala kuno, kyandibadde kirungi gy’ali singa teyazaalibwa. Zuukuka, kale, ggwe eyeebase, okaabirire Katonda wo: mukaabirire ku lunaku lw’ayinza okulabikira. Toleka kuwummula, okutuusa lw’aggya “obulungi bwe okubuyisa mu maaso go;” okutuusa lw’akutegeeza erinnya lya Mukama, “Mukama, Mukama Katonda alina ekisa n’okusaasira okungi, atasunguwala mangu, ajjudde obwesigwa n’okwagala okutaggwaawo, akuuma okwagala eri enkumi n’enkumi, asonyiwa ebisobyo, n’obujeemu, n’ebibi.” Omuntu yenna aleme kukusendasenda, n’ebigambo eby’obwereere, okuwummula nga tonnatuuka ku muwendo guno ogw’okuyitibwa kwo okw’ekitiibwa. Naye mukaabirire emisana n’ekiro, oyo, “bwe twali tukyali banafu, yafiirira aboonoonyi,” okutuusa lw’omanya oyo gw’okkiriza, era n’osobola okugamba nti, “Mukama wange, era Katonda wange!” Jjukira, “okusaba bulijjo awatali kukoowa,” okutuusa naawe lw’osobola okuyimusa omukono gwo eri eggulu, n’olangirira eri oyo abeera omulamu emirembe n’emirembe, nti, “Mukama wange, ggwe omanyi buli kimu, omanyi nga nkwagala.”

11. Ffenna katulyoke tumanye kye kitegeeza okubeera, si kumpi kwokka; wabula Abakristaayo abatuukiridde; nga tuweebwa obutuukirivu bwa buwa olw’ekisa kye, mu kununulibwa okuli mu Yesu; nga tumanyi nti tulina emirembe ne Katonda mu Yesu Kristo; nga twenyumiririza mu ssuubi ery’ekitiibwa kya Katonda; era nga tulina okwagala kwa Katonda okufukiddwa mu mitima gyaffe, olw’Omwoyo Omutukuvu gwe twaweebwa!
