1N'obu naakugamba endimi z'abantu n'eza baamaraika, kwonka ntaine kukunda, nkaaba ndi nk'omuringa ogurikurangira n'ekyoma ekirikugamba. 21 Kandi n'obu naakugira ekiconco eky'obunabi, nkamanya enaama zoona n'obwengye bwona, kandi n'obu naakugira okwikiriza kwona, okwakumbaasisa kwihaho enshozi, kwonka ntaine kukunda, nkaaba ntari kintu. 3Kandi n'obu naakugaba ebintu byangye byona kuriisa abooro, kandi n'obu naakuhayo omubiri gwangye kwokibwa, kwonka ntaine kukunda, tikiine ki kyakungasira.

Hati nimmanyaho kakye; kwonka omu biro ebyo ndyamanyira kimwe nk'oku naamanyiirwe kimwe. 136 Mbwenu ebirikugumaho ni bishatu, okwikiriza, amatsiko n'okukunda; kwonka ekirikukira byona n'okukunda.
