6 Ngikhulekela ukuba ukuhlanganyela kwakho kanye lathi ekukholweni kube lomfutho ngokujula ekuqedisiseni kwakho konke ukulunga esikwabelana ngenxa kaKhristu.
Kulompa itee wihangueli nuuhoeli wanyu, utule uza kumanye kela lukani nuluzepie pa ng'wanyu nukung'wa Kilisto.
7 Uthando lwakho lungiphe ukuthokoza okukhulu lokududuzeka ngoba wena, mzalwane, uvuselele inhliziyo zabangcwele.
Ingi nainandoilwe nuupolo, kunsoko aulowa wako, kunsoko inkolo yaahueli yakendakilagigwa nuewe mulana.

14 Kodwa angithandanga ukwenza lutho kungelamvumo yakho ukuze kuthi loba ngumusa owenzayo ube ngowokuzithandela hatshi ukubanjwa ngamandla.
Ingegwa singa azaneloilwa kitume lukani lehi bila kugombiigwa nueewe. Nitumile ite kunsoko lukani nuluza, lulekekitung'wa kunsoko akumiiligwa, kunsoko auloilwe uewe kituma.

Nsoko itee alekekutula mutungwa hangi, inge bahu lukulu amutungwa, anga muluna muulowa, hasa kung'wane kukila kung'wako, mumwele nukung'wa mukulu.
17 Ngakho-ke, nxa ungithatha njengohlanganyela lawe, mamukele ngendlela obuzangamukela ngayo.
Ne itegwa kang'wi unihoee unene anga nipalung'wi, anga nazuze nsigilya unee.
