2 KuThimothi 4
1 Phambi kukaNkulunkulu loKhristu uJesu ozathonisisa abaphilayo labafileyo njalo mayelana lokubonakala kwakhe kanye lombuso wakhe ngikunika lumlayo:
Nakuyana echilagiliro chinu imbele ya Nyamuanga na Kristo Yesu, unu alilamura abhafuye na bhaanga, kulwo kubhonekera kwaye no bhukama bhwaye.
2 Tshumayela iLizwi; lungiselela isikhathi esifaneleyo lesikhathi esingafanelanga; lungisa, ukhuze njalo ukhuthaze ngokubekezelela okukhulu langokulaya ngokunanzelela.
Lasha omusango. Wimaririye ubhega umaririye mu mwanya gunu gwiire na mu mwanya gunu guteire. Bhwira abhanu ebhibhibhi bhyebhwe, ganya, funya, kwo kwikumilisha na meigisho.
3 Ngoba isikhathi sizafika lapho abantu abangayikuyivuma khona imfundiso eqotho. Kodwa ukuze basuthise izinkanuko zabo, bazaziqoqela abafundisi abanengi ukuba batsho lokho indlebe zabo ezilumela ukukuzwa.
Kwo kubha omwanya oguja gunu abhanu bhatalikilishanya na meigisho ge chimali. Okubha bhaliyenjera abhalimu bho kubheigisha okulubhilana no bhunamba bhwebhwe. Kwa injila inu amatwi gebhwe galikurukutwa.
4 Indlebe zabo bazazisusa eqinisweni baphambukele ezinganekwaneni.
Bhalisiga okutegeresha ameigisho ge chimali, mbaindukira jingani.
5 Kodwa wena lulamisa ikhanda kuzozonke izehlakalo, ubekezele ebunzimeni, wenze umsebenzi womvangeli, uyifeze yonke imisebenzi yenkonzo yakho.
Mbe nawe awe ubhe mwigumilisha mu misango jona, igumilisha amakomeye, kora emilimu jo kulasha; gumisha obhufurubhendi bhwao.
6 Ngoba mina sengilungele ukuthululwa njengomnikelo onathwayo njalo lesikhathi sokusuka kwami sesifikile.
Kwo kubha anye namalile okusosibhwa. Omwanya gwo kugenda kwani gwagobhele.
7 Ngilwile ukulwa okuhle, sengiliqedile ibanga lami lokukholwa ngikulondolozile.
Nasingene mu chimali, olugendo nalugumisishe, elikilisha nililindire.
8 Khathesi ngigcinelwe umqhele wokulunga iNkosi uMahluleli olungileyo ezanginika wona ngalelolanga njalo kungayisimi kuphela kodwa kubo bonke abatshisekela ukubonakala kwayo.
Ingabho ye chimali iteyebhwo kulwanye, inu Omukama, alilamura kwe chimali, alinana olusiku luliya. Talyati kwanye ela, mbe nawe ku bhona bhanu bhalindiliye kwa inamba okubhonekana kwaye.
