(Ng’uwo umusavyi wanje mfise ku mutima)

Ng’iri irivumerewe n’Umukama :
Ng’uwo umusavyi wanje nama mpagarikiye,
ng’uwo uwo nitorereye kandi mfise ku mutima.
Naramuhaye umutima wanje,
ngo aheze azanire intara ubutungane.
Ntayogora, ntavuza urwamo
Ntagenda ariyamiriza mu mayira.
Ntahohosha umubingo wavunitse,
ntazimya urumuri rukiyengera
azoshikiriza amateka nk’uko yabitumwe.
Ntazotirigana kandi ntazocika intege,
gushika ashinge amateka mu bihugu,
abari mu mazinga na bo barorere inyigisho yiwe.
Jewe Mukama, narakwihamagariye mu butungane,
ndagufata ukuboko, ndakwiremera,
narakugenye ngo unyuzurize n’igihugu canje,
ubere umuco amakungu ;
uhumure impumyi, ubohore imbohe
ukure mu mvuto abahora mu mwijima.

Icit : Imana izohezagira intara yayo, iyigabire amahoro.

Hereze Umukama, bana b’Imana,
hereze Umukama ikaze n’iteka,
hereze Umukama ikaze rikwiye izina ryiwe,
hereze Umukama mu ngoro yiwe nyeranda.

Akamo k’Umukama kasiriye ku mazi,
Umukama yasiriye ku mazi nyamwinshi ;
ijwi ry’Umukama rirakomeye,
ijwi ry’Umukama rirarenga.

Imana Nyen’inganji irasiranye ;
mu ngoro yayo hose havugwa ngo : ‘N’iganze’
Umukama yaravyagiye ngo arekure isegenya,
Umukama aravyagiye, arahangamye mu myaka yose.

(Imana yamuvyagijemwo Mutima Mweranda)

Amaze gushika kwa Korneliyo, Petero asama ijambo ati : « Ni ivy’ukuri, ubu ndategereye ko Imana itagira nkunzi ; mu bihugu vyose, ishima uwuyubaha kandi agakora ibitunganye.
Yarungikiye Abanyisraeli Yezu Kristu, ngo abamenyeshe ijambo ry’amahoro : ni We Mukama wa bose. Murazi neza ivyabaye mu Buyudeha bwose, kuva ca gihe Yohani yigisha ibatisimu, aho Yezu w’i Nazareti atanguriye kwigisha mu Bugalile. Murazi ingene Imana yamwatiye ikamuvyagizamwo Mutima Mweranda n’inganji. Aho aciye hose, yagenda aragira neza, akabohora abari mu ngoyi za shetani ; kanatsinda yari ahagarikiwe n’Imana.»

(Amaze kubatizwa, Yezu yabonye Mutima Mweranda amwururukirako)

Muri irya misi, Yezu yavuye mu Bugalile aja ku ruzi Yordani ngo abatizwe na Yohani. Yamara Yohani aramwankira, ati : « Ni jewe nari kubatizwa nawe, none uje iwanje ? » Yezu na we aramwishura ati : « Pfa kundeka muri uyu mwanya ; na none birabereye ko turangura vyose mu ngingo. » Ni uko rero Yohani aramubatiza.

Yezu amaze kubatizwa, arava mu mazi ; niho ijuru ryiyugurura, akabona Mutima w’Imana yururuka mu gisa n’inuma, amuzako. Ijwi rica ryasirana mw’ijuru, rivuga riti : « Uyu ni Umwananje nkunda cane, muri We nahasanze ibinezera vyose. »
