Bhaya bhatikondenebhane, amwe nembagene, mshiyenetaji yane. Emeleli sawasawa Hwagosi, enyi bhamanyanibhembagena.
2 Ngiyamncenga uYuwodiya loSintikhe ukuba bavumelane eNkosini.
Ehubhozya Eudia, nantele ehubhozya awe Sintike, muwezye olwovwana olwinza kati yenyu. Afataneje amwe mwentibhabhele mwagenenogosi.
3 Ngiyakucela mhlobo wami oqotho, siza abesifazane labo abasebenza lami kanzima ngenxa yevangeli, kanye loKlementi labanye engisebenza labo, abalamabizo abo asencwadini yokuphila.
Nantele embabhozye nantele amwemwabhomba mbombo bhamwetu mbhavwe ebha abhashe afataneje bhatumishe pandwemo nane. Ayanje izu lya Gosi natili no Kelementi, pandwemo na atumwa abhamwabho abhagosi abhene, amatawagao gandiwhemshitabu eshewhomi.
4 Thokozani eNkosini kokuphela. Ngiyatsho futhi ngithi: Thokozani!

7 Ukuthula kukaNkulunkulu okudlula ukuqedisisa konke kuzabusa inhliziyo zenu lezingqondo zenu kuKhristu uJesu.
Olweteho lwa Gosi, lwalulilugosi ashile enjele zyonti ebhazije amoyo nensebho zyenyu olwa lwa Kristi o Yesu.
8 Okokucina bazalwane, konke okuliqiniso, lokulesithunzi, lokulungileyo, lokuhlambulukileyo, lokuhle, lokubukekayo, nxa ulutho luluhle kakhulu loba lubongeka, cabangani ngezinto ezinje.

9 Loba kuyini elikufundileyo loba elikwamukeleyo loba elikuzwileyo kuvela kimi, loba elikubonileyo kimi, kwenzeni. UNkulunkulu wokuthula uzakuba lani.
Gabhombelelaji embombo gala gamwamanjilaga gamwaposheyega mwahovwaganagalagamwa wetu oweminza abhabhenamwe.
10 Ngiyathokoza kakhulu eNkosini ngokuthi khathesi selize lavuselela ukungikhathalela kwenu. Impela kade likhathazeka kodwa lingelalo ithuba lokukubonakalisa.
Endinoluseshelo ogosi sana hulimwe na wagosi afwataneje amwe mbhonesezye eniya yahwihusizye hulimwe eyemahitaji gane. Lioli epoimande mwagene ansajile humaitajigane engawa semwayajile enafasi eyansaidile.
11 Kangitsho lokhu ngenxa yokuthi ngiyaswela ngoba sengafunda ukwaneliseka kuyo yonke imimo.
Seyanga eshoaje ehwipe ahantu wavilavye hwanzaane ehwimazizye ayeehaliyonti.
12 Ngiyakwazi ukuba ukuswela kuyini njalo ngiyakwazi ukuba kuyini ukuba lokunengi. Sengafunda imfihlo yokwaneliseka kuzozonke izimo, langabe ngiyasutha loba ngilambile, loba ngilokunengi kumbe ngiswela.
Emenye eshakhale nehali eyapongeshelwe naehali ya bhene vintu, humazingila gonti ega ane emanyie wakati owakute no wakatiowahweshe, yani vinji vyehwanziwa.
13 Ngingazenza zonke izinto ngaye onginika amandla.
Embwezizye abhombe ega ahwaviliwe nomwene yampela enguvu.
14 Kodwa kwakukuhle ukuthi lihlanganyele lami ekuhluphekeni kwami.
Hata esho, mwabhombile shinza ashilikiane nane amalabhagane.
15 Phezu kwalokho, lina bantu baseFiliphi liyakwazi ukuthi ensukwini elaqala ngazo ukwazi ivangeli ngesikhathi ngisuka eMasedoniya, akukho lalinye ibandla elahlanganyela lami endabeni yokupha lokwamukela ngaphandle kwenu kuphela;
Amwe mwa Filipi mmenye aje ahwandilekwizu nehasogoye hu Makedonia, nalimo ikanisa lyalya navwizye humambo gagahusu apeli inaposhele, amwe mbhene.
16 ngoba langesikhathi ngiseThesalonika langithumela usizo kanengi lapho ngidinga uncedo.
Hata nehali hu thesolanike amwe mwantumie awavwohahinji humahitaji gane.
17 Akusikuthi ngifuna isipho kodwa ngifuna okuzakuba yinzuzo kini.
Seyangaje ehwanza evyewene eyanga aji enyinza zyazileta efaida hulimwe.
18 Sengamukele umvuzo ogcweleyo lodlulisileyo; ngiphiwe okwaneleyo njengoba khathesi sengamukele ku-Ephafrodithusi izipho elazithumelayo. Zingumnikelo wephunga elimnandi, umhlatshelo owamukelekayo lothokozisa uNkulunkulu.
Eposheye evintu vyonti, neshi ememezewe ne vintu evyenje eviji. Emposheye evintu vyenyu afume wa Epafradito. Vintu vinza vyavinurishila shinza vyonti vihweteshelwa vyonti vye sadaka yehukhondela Ongolobhe.
19 UNkulunkulu wami uzakugcwalisa konke ukuswela kwenu ngenkazimulo yenotho yakhe kuKhristu uJesu.
Kwesho Ongolobhe wane abhabha memie gamuwanza agenyu utajiri wautuntumi wakwe O Yesu Kristi.
