Dependência
A dependência de Deus é o caminho da verdadeira liberdade. Sem Cristo, nada podemos fazer. Mas em Deus encontramos sustento, direção e força para todo desafio.
Sem Ele nada podemos
Sem mim nada podeis fazer. O cristão que se desconecta da videira seca — mas o que permanece dá muito fruto.
"Nene na ghumtsabibu, mwemwe mwaghamaputila. Munu iyokala mghati mwangu na nene nikale mghati mwake, ayo katsakweleka matunda mengi ng’ani; kwaapfila bila nene mwemwe mliyeka ng’amdaha kutenda chinu chochose baye.
Ghwe MNDEWA, unikinge,
kwaapfila nene nokutsumila ghweghwe niwe mgima.
Matsuwa ghose nene nimwika IMNDEWA hambele hangu,
yeye kaubali wangu wa kujilo, sitsohighisika baye.
Ka IMNDEWA ng’oitsenga ing’anda baye,
iwoitsenga wosang’ana ng’onde ya hela,
ka IMNDEWA ng’oghukalitsa ghumji baye,
iwoghukalitsa wowasa meso hela.
Kwaapfila iwanu wako ng’awaisolile isi kwa ghamapanga ghao baye,
wala ng’awahumile kwa tsingupfu tsa ghamoko ghawo baye,
lekeni tsawahuma kwa ghumoko ghwako ghwa kujilo,
ona, kwa ghumoko ghwako,
na kwa ukuwamwesesela ichihanga chako, kwaapfila tsakuwakunda,
IMNDEWA katsetowa nawo, mwemwe mwinyamale."
Depender do Senhor
Confia no Senhor de todo o coração e não te estribes no teu próprio entendimento. Em todos os caminhos o reconhece.
Wihuwile IMNDEWA kwa ghumoyo ghwako ghwose, na uleke kwihuwila tsimbutsi tsako ghumwenyegho. Umtambule Imulungu mna chila chinu chautenda, naye katsogholosa tsinzila tsako.
Ghumoyo ghwa imunu ghofikitsa inzila yake, lekeni IMNDEWA kolongotsa pfayoghenda.
Mmoyo mwa imunu mna pfinu pfingi pfayobama ukutenda, lekeni chayobama IMNDEWA chicho ichitsotendeka.
Tsibalaka tsa IMNDEWA tsoghala utajili, wala ng’otsihanganya baye na ukusing’inika.
Ilukuli lwangu na ghumoyo ghwangu pfohunguka,
lekeni Imlungu kalibambalawe lya ghumoyo ghwangu,
na lifungu lyangu matsuwa ghose ing’aghohupa.
Ghwe MNDEWA, Imulungu yuna tsingupfu,
utulangatsile ichihanga chako, natwe tukombolighwe.
Nakwinula tsinenge tsangu ndole kupfidunda,
ukwapfilighwa kwangu kulawa kwani?
Ukwapfilighwa kwangu kolawa kwa IMNDEWA,
Iyaumbile kulanga na isi,
Yeye ng’atsoghuleka baye ghumghulu ghwako ghuteletse,
yeye iyokukinga ng’atsodongila baye.
Ahala hanilongile, "Ghumghulu ghwangu ghuteletsa,"
uluso wako mkulu Ghwe MNDEWA, unyimitsa.
Haning’ali namna ghamaghayo ghangu,
nene nimkema IMNDEWA,
naye kanyidika na kanyika hanu henelele.
IMNDEWA yuyo imdimi wangu,
sitsohungukighwa na chinu baye.
Koniwasitsa mna ghumghina ghwa imitsani imibisi,
na konilongotsa mmbalimbali mwa ipfikolongo pfa ghamatsi ighatindimale.
Contentamento e confiança
Aprendi a viver contente em toda situação. A dependência de Deus nos livra da ansiedade e nos firma na paz.
Silonga ghano kwaapfila nobama ipfinu, kwaapfila tsanilangulitsa ukwenela na ghose ghaninagho.
Mkale pfinoghile chila imunu na miyaghe. Mleke kwighoda, ila mtoghole kukala ne iwanu mbughilambughila. Mleke kwibona mna ihekima ng’ani.
Kwaapfila mne lukuli lumwe kuna pfilungo pfingi, lekeni pfose ng’apfisang’ana ng’onde imwe bae. Pfipfila twetwe hata ka twawengi, twa lukuli lumwe kwa kwilunga na Kiristu, na chila munu ka chilungo cha miyaghe.
Awala iwolongotsighwa na lukuli lune nzambi ng’awodaha bae kumnogheletsa Imulungu.
Apfo lelo mleke ukwalangula gha ilupfi, kwa apfila ilupfi itsakwalangula yenyegho. Chila tsuwa lina ighehile ghake, lekani kwongetsa ghangi.
"Lekeni nene nani, na wanu wangu choni mbaka tudahe kukulapfila ipfinu kwa uluso uno? Kwaapfila ipfinu pfose pfolawa kuna ghweghwe, tukulapfila apfila ipfili pfako umwenyegho.
