1 Nkambo ndiyanda kuti muzibe bupati bwamapenzi ngindakajana aandinywe, nkambo kabaabo baliku Layodisiya, abaabo bakatakonzya kubona busyu bwangu munyama.
Ngoba ngithanda ukuthi lazi ukuthi kukhulu kangakanani ukulwa engilakho ngani labaseLawodikeya, njalo ngobunengi balabo abangabonanga ubuso bami enyameni,
2 Ndilabeleka kuchitila kuti myoyo yabo isungwazike akambo kakwetwa antomwe muluyando alubo amuliboonse buvubi buzwide kanzambwenene akumvwisisisya, nsiswa zya Leza, izili Kkilisito.
ukuze inhliziyo zabo ziduduzwe, behlanganiswe ethandweni, lenothweni yonke yokuqinisekiswa okupheleleyo kokuqedisisa, elwazini lwemfihlo kaNkulunkulu loBaba, lekaKristu,
3 Mulinguwe boonse buvubi bwabusongo aluzibo muzisisidwe.
okufihlwe kuye izinto zonke eziligugu zenhlakanipho lezolwazi.
4 Ndaamba echi kuchitila kuti takwepe anaba umwi ukonzya kumwena amakani akumuyunga.
Ngitsho lokhu-ke, ukuze kungabi lamuntu olikhohlisayo ngamazwi ayengayo.
5 Nikuba nsili andinywe munyama, ndili andinywe mumuuya. Ndilabotelwa kubona kubamba obotu anguzu zyalusyomo lwenu muli Kkilisito.
Ngoba lanxa ngingekho ngenyama, kanti ngilani ngomoya, ngithokoza ngibona ukuhlela kwenu, lokuqina kokholo lwenu kuKristu.
6 Mbuli mbumwakatambula Kkilisito Mwami, amweenda mulinguwe.
Ngakho njengalokho limemukele uKristu Jesu iNkosi, hambani kuye,
7 Amukabyalwe muzyandamikwe mulinguwe, mukayakwe alinguwe, mukasimpikwe mulusyomo mbuli mbumwakayiisigwa, aakufwasuka mukulumba.
ligxilise impande lakhiwe kuye, njalo liqiniswe ekholweni, njengokufundiswa kwenu, lengeze kulo ekubongeni.
8 Amubone kuti kutabi naba omwe umuyunga kukwamba makani alweno ataawo, kaziyendelana atunsiya-nsiya twabantu, azwa kuzilenge zyaansi atazwi kuli Kkilisito.
Nanzelelani hlezi kube khona olithumbayo ngolwazi lwenhlakanipho langenkohliso eyize, njengokomkhuba wabantu, njengokwemfundiso zakuqala zomhlaba, njalo kungenjengokukaKristu;
9 Nkambo mulinguwe boonse buzwide bwa Leza mubuponi muchiimo chamubili.
ngoba kuhlala kuye ukugcwala konke kobuNkulunkulu ngomzimba,
10 Alimwi mulazuzigwa mulinguwe. Ngomutwe wanguzu zyonse abwendelezi.
njalo liphelelisiwe kuye, oyinhloko yakho konke ukubusa lamandla;
11 Mulinguwe mumwakapalulwa abupalulwe butachitwi abantu mukugwisya nyama yamubili, Pesi mubupalulwe bwa Kkilisito.
elasokelwa kuye lani ngokusoka okungenziwanga ngezandla, ngokuhlubula umzimba wezono zenyama, ekusokeni kukaKristu,
12 Mwakazikwa anguwe mulubbabbatizyo, amulinguwe mwakabusigwa mukwindila mulusyomo lwanguzu zya Leza, oyo wakamubusya kuzwa kubafu.
lingcwatshwe kanye laye ebhabhathizweni, elavuswa lani kanye laye kulo ngokholo lokusebenza kukaNkulunkulu, owamvusa kwabafileyo.
13 Nimwakafwide muzibi zyenu animwakatapalwidwe kunyama zyenu, wakamuchita kuti mupone antomwe anguwe akutulekelela zibi zyesu.
Lani lifile eziphambekweni lokungasoki kwenyama yenu, ulenze laphila kanye laye, eselithethelele zonke iziphambeko,
14 Wakazima makani abubi ayiminina andiswe amalayilile awo. Wakachigwisya akuchigankamina achingaano.
esesule incwadi yezimiso emelana lathi, ephambene lathi, wayisusa phakathi, eseyibethele esiphambanweni;
15 Wakasamununa bendelezi abasibwami akubachitya kufwa bweme, akubazunda bo achingano.
ebahlubule ababusi lamandla, wabaveza obala, wathakazelela ukubanqoba ngaso.
16 Akambo kaboobo, kutabi naba umwi umubeteka mukulya nimuba mukunywa, nikuba kumazuba amapobwe nanka amweezi mupya, nikuba kumazuba a Sabata.
Ngakho kakungabi khona olilahla ekudleni kumbe ekunatheni, loba endabeni yomkhosi loba eyokuthwasa kwenyanga kumbe eyamasabatha;
17 Eezi mwenzule wazintu zichiza, pesi mubili mwini ngu Kkilisito.
eziyisithunzi sezinto ezizayo, kodwa umzimba ungokaKristu.
18 Kutabi naba umwi uyanda kulifwinsya akukomba baangelo umubeteka kuzwa kumpindu yenu. Oyo muntu uliboobu ulanjila muzintu nzyakabona akuba mbwapekezya katakwe anchachitila mumiyeyo yanyama zyakwe.
Kakungabi lamuntu olemuka umvuzo wenu ngobuqili, ethanda ukuzenza othobekileyo lokukhonza izingilosi, engena ezintweni angazibonanga, ezikhukhumeza ngeze ngengqondo yenyama yakhe,
19 Tajisilidi kumutwe, nkuuzwa kumutwe mubili woonse nkujisilidi mungo amilambi yoonse nkwijisini amwi; ilakomena akukomena kupegwa a Leza.
njalo engabambi iNhloko, umzimba wonke ngamalunga lemisipha usondliwa njalo uhlanganiswa ngayo, ukhula ngokukhula kukaNkulunkulu.
20 Kuti na mwakafwa aamwi a Kkilisito kuzilenge zyanyika, nkamboonzi muchipona kamuchibanga mulibe nyika:
Ngakho uba lafa kanye loKristu emfundisweni zakuqala zomhlaba, libophekeleni ngemikhuba ngokungathi liphila elizweni,
21 “Utagumi, nanka utalabili, nanka kujata”?
(ungabambi, unganambithi, ungathinti,
22 Zintu zyoonse ezi ziyoloba akubelesegwa, kazilangene kumalayilile anjiisyo zyabantu.
ezizaphela zonke ngokusetshenziswa) njengokwemilayo lezimfundiso zabantu?
23 Eeyi milayizyo ilayubununa busongo, akulibombya beni akulibombya kweeta kusilikwa kwamibili yabo. Pesi tazijisi milimu yakutukasya kuzumina zichito zibi mumyoyo yesu.
Ezilesimo senhlakanipho ekukhonzeni kokuzenzela lekuzithobeni lekuphatheni nzima umzimba, kakusizi lutho ukumelana lokusuthisa inyama.
