KumaHebheru 2

1 Ngakho kufanele siqaphelelisise lokho esikuzwileyo ukuze singaduki.

2 Ngoba nxa ilizwi elakhulunywa yizingilosi liqinisa njalo konke ukona lokungalaleli kuthole isijeziso sakho esifaneleyo,

3 pho thina sizaphepha njani nxa singanaki insindiso enkulu kangaka na? Lokhu kusindiswa okwabikwa kuqala yiNkosi, kwafakazwa kithi yilabo abayizwayo.

4 LoNkulunkulu wakufakaza ngezibonakaliso langezimangaliso ezithile, langezipho zikaMoya oNgcwele ezabiwa ngokwentando yakhe.

5 Akusikho ezingilosini abeka khona ngaphansi kwazo ilizwe elizayo esikhuluma ngalo.

6 Kodwa ikhona indawo lapho omunye ofakaza khona esithi: “Uyini umuntu osungaze uzihluphe ngaye na, loba indodana yomuntu ukuba uyinanze na?

7 Wamenza waba mncinyazana kulezingilosi; wamethesa umqhele wodumo lobukhosi,

8 wabeka lezinto zonke ngaphansi kwezinyawo zakhe.” Ekubekeni izinto zonke ngaphansi kwakhe uNkulunkulu katshiyanga lutho olungekho ngaphansi kwakhe. Kodwa khathesi kasiboni zinto zonke zingaphansi kwakhe.

9 Kodwa sibona yena, owenziwa waba ngaphansanyana kwezingilosi okwesikhatshana, uJesu, ebekwa umqhele wobukhosi lodumo ngoba wavuma ukufa ukuze kuthi ngomusa kaNkulunkulu ezwe ukufa ngenxa yabantu bonke.

10 Ekuletheni amadodana amanengi enkazimulweni, kwakufanele ukuba uNkulunkulu, yena owenza zonke izinto njalo zabakhona ngenxa yakhe, enze umsunguli wokusindiswa kwabo aphelele ngokuhlupheka kwakhe.

11 Ngoba lowo owenza abantu babengcwele kanye lalabo abenziwe baba ngcwele ngabendlunye. Ngakho uJesu kakumyangisi ukuba athi bangabafowabo.

12 Uthi, “Ngizamemezela ibizo lakho kubafowethu; ngizahlabelela udumo lwakho phambi kwebandla.”

13 Njalo uthi, “Ngizabeka ithemba lami kuye.” Uphinda athi, “Mina ngilapha, kanye labantwana uNkulunkulu angiphe bona.”

14 Njengoba abantwana belomzimba legazi, laye wahlanganyela ebuntwini babo ukuze kuthi ngokufa kwakhe amchithe lowo ophethe amandla okufa okutsho uSathane,

15 abakhulule ababesebugqilini impilo yabo yonke ngenxa yokwesaba kwabo ukufa.

16 Ngoba impela akusizo ingilosi azisizayo kodwa inzalo ka-Abhrahama.

17 Ngenxa yalokhu kwakumele enziwe afane labafowabo kukho konke ukuze abe ngumphristi omkhulu olesihawu lothembekileyo enkonzweni kaNkulunkulu, lokuba abeyinhlawulo yezono zabantu.

18 Njengoba laye wahlupheka lapho elingwa, uyenelisa ukubasiza abalingwayo.
