Ukuziphendulela kwabapostile kuThixo
1Makenjenjalo ke umntu ukucinga ngathi, athi singabakhonzi bakaKristu, athi singamagosa eemfihlelo zikaThixo. 2Ke kaloku ke, kufuneka kuwo amagosa, ukuba ulowo kuwo afumaneke ethembekile. 3Kum ke yeyona nto incinanana, ukuba ndincinwe nini, nayimini yamatyala yabantu; ke andizincini nam ngokwam, 4kuba andizazeleli nto; noko andigwetyelwe koko; ondincinayo ke yiNkosi. 5Ngoko ke, musani ukugweba nto phambi kwelona xesha, ide ifike iNkosi, eya kuthi izikhanyise nokuzikhanyisa izinto ezifihlakeleyo zobumnyama, iwabonakalalise amacebo entliziyo; andule ke ulowo nalowo abe nodumo oluvela kuThixo.
6Ezi zinto ke, bazalwana, ndizilinganisele ngam noApolo, ngenxa yenu; ukuze nifunde kuthi aba, ukuba ningazicingeli ngaphezu koko kubhaliweyo, ukuze kungabikho namnye uzikhukhumalisa ngakomnye ngenxa yomnye. 7Kuba ngubani na okubalulayo kwabanye? Yintoni na ke onayo ongayamkeliswanga? Phofu ke, ukuba wamkelisiwe, uqhayiselani na, ngathi akwamkeliswanga? 8Senihluthi, senizizityebi, nalawula ningenathi; akwaba ke kambe beningabalawuli, ukuze nathi silawule kunye nani.
9Kuba ngathi mna, uThixo thina bapostile• usivelise mva, sanga singabamiselwe ukufa; kuba sanekwé senziwa intlekisa kulo ihlabathi, nakwizithunywa zezulu, nakubantu. 10Thina siziziyatha ngenxa kaKristu, ke nina niziingqondi kuKristu; thina siswele amandla, ke nina nomelele; nina nizukile, ke thina siswele imbeko. 11Kude kwaleli lixa langoku silamba, sinxanwa, sihamba zé, sintlithwa, singenasikhundla, sibulaleka, 12sisebenza ngezethu izandla; sithi, sitshabhiswa, sibe sisikelela; sithi sitshutshiwa, sibe sinyamezela; 13sithi sinyeliswa, sibe siyala; sixeliswa inkunkuma yehlabathi, inkuthu yezinto zonke, kude kube ngoku.
Ukululekwa nokucetyiswa ngokomzali
14Ezo nto andizibhaleli ukuba nidane; ndiyaniluleka njengabantwana bam abathandekayo. 15Kuba ningafanelana ninabakhaphi bemawaka alishumi kuKristu, àbabaninzi bona ooyihlo; kuba kuKristu Yesu nizelwe ndim lo, ngazo iindaba ezilungileyo. 16Ndiyaniyala ngoko, yibani ngabaxelisa mna.
17Ngenxa yoko ndinithumele uTimoti, ongumntwana wam oyintánda, othembekileyo, waseNkosini, oya kunikhumbuza iindlela zam ezikuKristu, njengoko ndifundisayo ezindaweni zonke, kuwo onke amabandla.
18Ke kaloku inxenye ithe yakhukhumala, ngathi andiyi kuza kuni. 19Ndiya kuza ke kuni kamsinya, ukuba iNkosi ithe yavuma, ukuze ndinganeli kukwazi ukuthetha kwabakhukhumeleyo, ndazi amandla abo. 20Kuba ubukumkani bukaThixo abusekuthetheni, busemandleni. 21Nithanda kuphi na, kuko ukuza kuni ndinoswazi, kuko ukuza ndinothando, nomoya wobulali?
