Ibyo kugaruka k’Umwami Yesu
1 Bakundwa, uru ni rwo rwandiko rwa kabiri mbandikiye. Muri izo zombi imigambi yanjye yari iyo gukangura imitima yanyu itarimo uburiganya, mbibutsa
2 kugira ngo mwibuke amagambo yavuzwe kera n’abahanuzi bera, mwibuke n’itegeko ry’Umwami ari we Mukiza mwabwiwe n’intumwa zabatumweho.
3 Mubanze kumenya iki, yuko mu minsi y’imperuka hazaza abakobanyi bakobana, bakurikiza irari ryabo,
4 babaza bati “Isezerano ryo kuza kwe riri he? Ko uhereye aho ba sogokuruza basinziririye, byose bihora uko byahoze, uhereye ku kuremwa kw’isi.”
5 Nuko biyibagiza nkana yuko ijuru ryahozeho uhereye kera kose, n’isi yakuwe mu mazi ikazengurukwa na yo ku bw’ijambo ry’Imana,
6 ari byo byatumye isi ya kera irengwaho n’amazi ikarimbuka.
7 Ariko ijuru n’isi bya none, iryo jambo ni ryo na none ryabibikiye umuriro uzatera ku munsi w’amateka, urimbure abatubaha Imana.
8 Ariko bakundwa, iri jambo rimwe ntirikabasobe, yuko ku Mwami Imana umunsi umwe ari nk’imyaka igihumbi, n’imyaka igihumbi ari nk’umunsi umwe.
9 Umwami Imana ntitinza isezerano ryayo, nk’uko bamwe batekereza yuko iritinza. Ahubwo itwihanganira idashaka ko hagira n’umwe urimbuka, ahubwo ishaka ko bose bihana.
10 Ariko umunsi w’Umwami wacu uzaza nk’umujura, ubwo ijuru rizavaho hakaba n’umuriri ukomeye, maze iby’ishingiro, ibyo byose biremeshwa bikayengeshwa no gushya cyane, isi n’imirimo iyirimo bigashirīra.
11 Nuko ubwo ibyo byose bizayenga bityo, yemwe uko dukwiriye kuba abantu bera, kandi twubaha Imana mu ngeso zacu,
12 twebwe abategereza tugatebutsa umunsi w’Imana uzatuma ijuru rigurumana rikayenga, kandi iby’ishingiro, ibyo byose biremeshwa bigashongeshwa no gushya cyane!
13 Kandi nk’uko yasezeranije dutegereje ijuru rishya n’isi nshya, ibyo gukiranuka kuzabamo.
14 Ni cyo gituma bakundwa, ubwo mutegereje ibyo, mukwiriye kugira umwete wo kuzasangwa mu mahoro, mutagira ikizinga, mutariho umugayo mu maso ye.
15 Mumenye yuko kwihangana k’Umwami wacu ari agakiza, nk’uko mwene Data ukundwa Pawulo yabandikiye abwirijwe n’ubwenge yahawe,
16 ndetse no mu nzandiko ze zose yavuze ibyerekeye ibyo. Icyakora zirimo bimwe biruhije gusobanukirwa, ibyo abaswa bahindagurika bagoreka, nk’uko bagira ibyanditswe bindi bakizanira kurimbuka.
17 Nuko rero bakundwa, ubwo muburiwe hakiri kare, mwirinde mutayobywa n’uburiganya bw’abanyabyaha mukareka gushikama kwanyu.
18 Ahubwo mukurire mu buntu bw’Imana no kumenya Yesu Kristo Umwami wacu n’Umukiza. Icyubahiro kibe icye none n’iteka ryose. Amen.
