Kwekhutwa kwemaKhristu aseKhorinte lamangalelanako

1Nangabe lomunye wenu anelicala nalomunye, pho, angabe sewuyammangalela yini kubantfu labangakholwa? Yini angayi kulabangcwele? 2 Anati yini kutsi labangcwele bayakwehlulela umhlaba? Nangabe-ke umhlaba uyakwehlulelwa ngini, ningehlulwa yini kwehlulelana emacaleni enu lamancane kangaka?

3Anati yini kutsi siyakwehlulela ngisho netingilosi? Kanganani-ke emacala alokuphila kwalamuhla! 4Nangabe ninalawo macala enu, niwayiselani kubantfu labangakabalwa nekubalwa ebandleni? 5Loku ngikusho khona nitewubona lihlazo lenu. Senisho kutsi sekute namunye lapho emkhatsini wenu longaba nekuhlakanipha lokwenele kutsi ehlulele bazalwane bakhe? 6Umzalwane uyammangalela yini umzalwane, nekwenta kubantfu labangakholwa?

7 Kwakona loko nje kutsi nibe niloku nimangalelana, kukhomba kona kwehluleka. Yini kungabi ncono kini kutsi noniwe? Yini kungabi ncono kini kutsi nidlelelwe? 8Kodvwa nine niyona nidlelele, nekwenta kubazalwane. 9 Anati yini kutsi labangakalungi abayikulidla lifa lembuso waNkulunkulu? Ningayengeki: Tingwadla, nalabakhonta tithico, netiphingi, nalabadvuna labalalanako, 10 nemasela, nalababukhali, netidzakwa, nalabetfukako, netigebengu, bangeke balidle lifa lembuso waNkulunkulu. 11 Babenjalo labanye emkhatsini wenu. Kodvwa-ke nyalo senagezwa, nangcweliswa, nemukeleka kuNkulunkulu kutsi nilungile egameni leNkhosi Jesu Khristu nangaMoya waNkulunkulu wetfu.

Umtimba wetfu ulithempeli laNkulunkulu

12 Kutsiwa: “Konkhe kuvumelekile kimi,” kodvwa akusiko konkhe lokulusito. Yebo, “konkhe kuvumelekile kimi,” kodvwa kute nakunye lokunekungigcilata. 13 Labanye batsi: “Kudla kwentelwe sisu, nesisu sentelwe kudla,” kodvwa Nkulunkulu uyawukubhubhisa kokubili. Umtimba awukentelwa bugwadla, nekujuma, nebuphingi, ngobe umtimba weNkhosi, neNkhosi yemtimba. 14 Nkulunkulu wayivusa iNkhosi, natsi uyawusivusa ngemandla akhe.

15 Anati yini kutsi imitimba yenu ititfo taKhristu? Pho, ngingatsatsa titfo taKhristu ngitente titfo tengwadla nome tesiphingi? Cha, ngeke! 16 Anati yini kutsi lotihlanganisa nengwadla uba mtimba munye nayo? Ngobe kubhaliwe kutsi: “Labo bobabili sebayawuba nyamanye.” 17 Kepha lotihlanganisa neNkhosi uyawuba moya munye nayo.

18 Balekelani bugwadla nebuphingi. Tonkhe tono latentako umuntfu tingephandle kwemtimba wakhe; kodvwa logwadlako nome lophingako wona umtimba wakhe. 19 Anati yini kutsi umtimba wenu ulithempeli laMoya Longcwele lohlala kini, lenamemukela kuNkulunkulu, nekutsi futsi anisibo benu? Nine nibaNkulunkulu, 20 natsengwa ngelinani lelikhulu. Ngako-ke mdvumiseni Nkulunkulu emitimbeni yenu.
