4Ndihlala ndibulela kuye uThixo wam, ndikukhumbula emithandazweni yam, 5ndiluva nje olwakho uthando, nokholo onalo kuyo iNkosi uYesu, nakubo bonke abangcwele, 6ukuze ubudlelane bokholo lwakho bube nokusebenza ngokwazi konke okulungileyo okukuni, kuse kuKristu Yesu. 7Kuba sinovuyo nothuthuzeleko olukhulu ngalo uthando lwakho, ngokuba izibilini zabangcwele ziphunyuziwe ngawe, mzalwana.
8Kungoko endithi, nakuba ndinako ukungafihlisi okukhulu kuKristu, kokuba ndikuthethele okufanelekileyo, 9noko ngenxa yothando ndisuka kanye ndikubongoze, ndíngonjengoPawulos ixhego, ngoku ke ndikwangumbanjwa kaYesu Kristu.
10Ndikubongoza ngenxa yomntwana wam, uOnesimo, endimzeleyo ndisezintanjeni; 11obefudula engeluncedo lwanto kuwe, kodwa ngoku kuwe nakum unoncedo oluhle. Lowo ndimbuyisele kuwe; 12wena ke mamkele, oko kukuthi, yamkela izibilini zam; 13ebendinga mna ndingasendihlala naye apha, ukuze athi endaweni yakho andilungiselele, ndísezintanjeni ngenxa yeendaba ezilungileyo ezi; 14kodwa andithandanga kwenza nto, ungatshongo wena, ukuze ukulunga kwakho kungangi kokokunyanzelwa, kube kokokuvuma.
15Kuba mhlawumbi wahlukaniswa umzuzwana nawe ngenxa yoku, ukuze umzuze ngokwaphakade; 16engasenjengekhoboka, esuke wangaphezu kwekhoboka, engumzalwana oyintanda, ngokukodwa kum; kubeke phi na ke kuwe, ngokwenyama nangokweNkosi? 17Ngoko ke, ukuba ùnobudlelane nam, mamkele njengam. 18Ukuba wakona, nokuba unetyala kuwe, oko kubalele kum. 19Mna Pawulos ndikubhalé ngesam isandla ukuthi, mna ndokuhlawula; endingàtshoyo kuwe ukuthi, kum ùnetyala elingaphezulu, elinguwe ngokwakho.
20Ewe, mzalwana, mandincedeke ngawe mna ngokwaseNkosini; ziphumze izibilini zam ngokwaseNkosini. 21Ndikubhalele ndeyisekile kukundilulamela kwakho, ndisazi ukuba ùya kwenza nangaphezulu koko ndikuthethayo.
Isiphelo
22Kunye ke noko, ndilungisele indawo yokuhlala; kuba ndithembile ukuba ngayo imithandazo yenu nondiphiwa.
23Uyakubulisa uEpafras, umbanjwa ndawonye nam wakwaKristu Yesu, 24kwanoMarko, noAristarko, noDemasi, noLuka, abasebenzisana nam.
25Ubabalo lweNkosi yethu uYesu Kristu malube nomoya wenu. Amen.
