Amor de casal
O amor de casal é celebrado na Bíblia como dom sagrado. O Cântico dos Cânticos exalta a beleza do amor conjugal — íntimo, exclusivo e forte como a morte.
Bambu Chapanga akajova, "Chabwina lepi mundu uyu kutama mwene. Yati nimkitila mundu mweawanini nayu."
Kuhuma muluvafu lwenulo lwealuwusili kwa Adamu, Bambu Chapanga akamuwumba mundu mdala, na akamuleta kwa Adamu. Adamu akajova,
"Hinu mwenuyu ndi lihupa mumahupa gangu.
Na nyama munyama yangu.
Mwenuyo yati ikemelewa ‘mdala’ Muni ahumili muhiga ya mgosi."
Ndava yeniyo mgosi yati akumleka dadi waki na nyina waki na yati iwungana na mdala waki, na vene yati vivya higa yimonga.
Ndava yeniyo, ndi lepi kavili vavili, nambu higa yimonga. Cheachiwunganishi Chapanga mundu akoto kuchipangulana."
Mweavi na uganu isindimala na ivya mbwina, ivya na uganu ivya lepi na wihu, imeka lepi. Mundu mweavi na uganu ivya na utopesa, ilonda lepi chiyonjokesu chaki mwene, ivya lepi na ligoga, ikumbuka lepi gahakau. Mundu mweavi na uganu ihekelela lepi uhakau, nambu ihekelela uchakaka. Mundu mweavi na uganu itotokela lepi magono goha isindimala na isadika na ihuvalila.
Hinu, vagosi yikuvagana kuvagana vadala vavi ngati higa yavi vene. Yula mweakumgana mdala waki akujigana mwene. Kawaka mundu mweakuyihakalila higa yaki, nambu pahali paki akuulisa na kuuyunga ngati Kilisitu cheakuuyunga msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika,
Nambu gakuvavala nyenye mewa, kila mgosi yikumgana amgana mdala ngati mwene, mdala namwene yikumgana amtopesa mngwana waki.
Mukuyonjokesa genago, muyendelela kukamulila uganu, muni uganu wikunga kila chindu muumonga wa uchakaka.
Malagizu ndalindali
"Mgosi mweagegili lukumbi lwa papipi iganikiwa lepi kuhamba kungondo, amala iganikiwa lepi kupewa lihengu lingi loloha, yati ilekwa mulukumbi lwa mwaka umonga muni atama kunyumba na kusangaluka na mdala waki."
