2 Kwabasekhorinte 12
1 Kumele ngiqhubeke ngizincoma. Lanxa kungelalutho oluzuzwayo, mina ngizaqhubeka ngemibono langezambulo ezivela eNkosini.
Kuzvikudza zvirokwazvo hakubatsiri kwandiri; nokuti ndichauya pazviratidzo nezvakazarurwa zvaIshe.
2 Mina ngazi umuntu okuKhristu okwathi ngeminyaka elitshumi lane eyedlulayo wathathwa wasiwa ezulwini lesithathu. Langabe kwakuphakathi komzimba loba ngaphandle komzimba kangikwazi, kwazi uNkulunkulu.
Ndinoziva munhu ari muna Kristu makore gumi nemana apfuura (kana zvakaitwa mumuviri, handizivi, kana kunze kwemuviri, handizivi, Mwari anoziva), wakadai wakabvutirwa kudenga rechitatu.
3 Mina ngazi ukuthi umuntu lo loba phakathi komzimba kumbe ngaphandle komzimba, kangikwazi, kodwa uNkulunkulu uyazi,
Uye ndinoziva munhu wakadai (kana mumuviri, kana kunze kwemuviri, handizivi; Mwari anoziva),
4 wahlwithwa wasiwa ePharadise. Wezwa izinto ezingakhulumekiyo, izinto umuntu angavunyelwa ukuzitsho.
kuti wakabvutwa akaiswa muparadhiso, akanzwa mashoko asingatauriki, asingabviri munhu kutaura.
5 Ngazincoma ngomuntu onjalo, kodwa mina angiyikuzincoma, ngaphandle kwangobuthakathaka bami.
Ndichazvikudza newakadai; asi pamusoro pangu ndomene handizvikudzi, asi pautera hwangu.
6 Lanxa ngingakhetha ukuzincoma, ngiyabe ngingesisithutha ngoba ngiyabe ngikhuluma iqiniso. Kodwa ngiyazibamba ukuze kungabikhona ozacabanga okunengi ngami kulalokho okufanele engikwenzayo loba engikutshoyo.
Nokuti kana ndichida kuzvikudza, handaizova benzi; nokuti ndichareva chokwadi; asi ndinorega, zvimwe umwe angandifungira kuva mukuru kune zvaakaona ndiri, kana zvaakanzwa kwandiri,
7 Ukuze ngenqabele ukuzikhukhumeza ngenxa yalezizambulo ezinkulu kakhulukazi, ngahlatshwa ngameva emzimbeni wami, ayisithunywa sikaSathane, ukuba angihluphe.
uye kuti ndirege kukudzwa kubudikidza nekuwanda kwezvakazarurwa, ndakapiwa munzwa munyama, nhume yaSatani kuti indirove, kuti ndirege kukudzwa.
8 Ngalabhela eNkosini kathathu ukuba iwasuse kimi.
Maererano nechinhu ichi ndakakumbirisa Ishe katatu kuti chibve kwandiri.
9 Kodwa yathi kimi, “Umusa wami ukwanele ngoba amandla ami apheleliswa ebuthakathakeni.” Ngakho ngizazincoma kakhulu-ke ngokuthokoza ngobuthakathaka bami, ukuze amandla kaKhristu ahlale phezu kwami.
Zvino akati kwandiri: Nyasha dzangu dzakakukwanira; nokuti simba rangu rinozadziswa muutera. Naizvozvo ndichazvirumbidza nemufaro mukuru muutera hwangu, kuti simba raKristu rigare pamusoro pangu.
10 Yikho-nje, ngenxa kaKhristu, ngithokozela ubuthakathaka, izithuko, inhlupho, ukuhlukuluzwa lokukhathazeka. Ngoba nxa ngibuthakathaka, kulapho-ke ngilamandla.
Naizvozvo ndinofara muutera, mukutukwa, mukushaiwa, murushusho, mukushungurudzwa, nekuda kwaKristu; nokuti kana ndine utera, ipapo ndine simba.
11 Sengenze ubuthutha, kodwa yini elingingenise kubo. Kade kufanele nginconywe yini ngoba kangiphansi okokucina “kubapostoli abaphezulu,” lanxa nje ngingasilutho.
Ndava benzi ndichizvikudza; ndimwi makandimanikidza; nokuti ini ndaifanira kuziviswa nemwi; nokuti handisariri nepadiki kuvaapositori vakurusa, kunyange ndisiri chinhu.
12 Izinto eziphawula umpostoli zigoqela izibonakaliso, izimanga kanye lezimangaliso ezenziwa phakathi kwenu ngokubekezela okukhulu.
Zvirokwazvo zviratidzo zvemuapositori zvakaitwa pakati penyu pamoyo murefu wese, muzviratidzo nezvishamiso nemabasa esimba.
13 Laliphansi okunjani kulamanye amabandla, ngaphandle kokuthi angizange ngibe ngumthwalo kini. Ngithethelelani kulokhu!
Nokuti chii chamuri pasi nacho kune amwe makereke, kunze kwekuti ini ndomene handina kuva mutoro kwamuri? Ndikanganwirei kusarurama uku.
14 Khathesi sengilungele ukuba ngilethekelele okwesithathu njalo angiyikuba ngumthwalo kini ngoba engikufunayo akusimpahla yenu kodwa lina. Ikanti belo abantwana akumelanga banakekele abazali babo kodwa abazali yibo okumele banakekele abantwababo.
Tarirai, ndazvigadzirira kuuya kwamuri rwechitatu, uye handizovi mutoro kwamuri; nokuti handitsvaki zvenyu, asi imwi; nokuti vana havafaniri kuchengetera vabereki, asi vabereki vana.
15 Ngakho ngizathokozela kakhulu ukuchitha konke engilakho ngenxa yenu lami futhi ngizinikele. Ngingalithanda kakhulu, lina lizangithanda kancane na?
Uye ndinoda nemufaro mukuru kuparadza uye kuparadzirwa mweya yenyu, kunyange ndichikudai zvakapamhidzirwa zvikuru, ndinodikanwa zvishoma.
16 Loba kunjalo, mina angibanga ngumthwalo kini. Kodwa mina njengomuntu ohlakaniphileyo, ngalibamba ngobuqili!
Asi zvakadaro, ini handina kukuremedzai; asi zvandakange ndine mano, ndakakubatai nekunyengera.
17 Ngaliqilibezela yini ngomunye wabantu engabathuma kini na?
Ndakakutsvatai here chero neumwe waivo vandakatuma kwamuri?
18 Ngacela uThithu ukuba eze kini njalo ngathuma lomzalwane wethu kunye laye. UThithu kazange aliqilibezele, waliqilibezela na? Kasisebenzanga ngamoya munye salandela indlela yinye na?
Ndakakumbira Tito, ndikatuma hama naye; Tito wakakutsvatai here? Hatina kufamba nemumweya umwe here? Hatinakufamba nemumakwara mamwe here?
19 Isikhathi sonke lesi kade licabanga ukuthi besizivikela kini na? Kade sikhuluma phambi kukaNkulunkulu njengabakuKhristu; njalo konke esikwenzayo, bazalwane abathandekayo, ngokokuliqinisa.
Zvekare munofunga kuti tinozvidzivirira kwamuri here? Tinotaura pamberi paMwari muna Kristu; asi tinotaura zvese, vadikanwi, zvekuvakwa kwenyu.
20 Ngoba ngiyesaba ukuthi ekufikeni kwami angiyikulifica liyilokho engifuna libe yikho, mhlawumbe lani lingangifumani ngiyilokho elifuna ngibe yikho. Ngiyesaba ukuthi kungaba khona ukuxabana, umona, ukuthukuthela, imibango, isinyeyo, ukuhleba, ukuzikhukhumeza kanye lokuphithizela.
Nokuti ndinotya, zvimwe pakusvika ndikuwanei musina kuita sezvandinoda, neni ndiwanikwe nemwi ndisina kuita sezvamunoda; zvimwe kuvepo makakava, godo, hasha, kupesana, kucherana, makuhwa, manyawi, mabongozozo;
21 Ngiyesaba ukuthi ekufikeni kwami futhi uNkulunkulu wami uzangithoba phambi kwenu njalo ngizakuba lusizi ngabanengi abenze izono ngaphambilini njalo bengaphendukanga kulokho kungcola, isono sokufeba kanye lamanyala abangena kuwo.
zvimwe pakusvika kwanguzve Mwari wangu andininipise pakati penyu, uye ndichemere vazhinji vevakambotadza, vakasatendeuka pakusachena neupombwe neunzenza hwavakaita.
