1 Ngasengizimisela lokhu, ukungaphindi ngize kini esizini.
Kulwejo nalamuye kulubhala lwani omwene ati nitakejile lindi kwimwe na lisungu.
2 Ngoba uba mina ngilibangela usizi, ngubani-ke ongithokozisayo, ngaphandle kobangelwe yimi usizi?
Alabha nabhaleteye emwe obwashe, ni niga akakondishe anye, nawe ni uliya unu autalile nanye?
3 Njalo ngalibhalela into le efananayo ukuze ekufikeni kwami ngingabi losizi kulabo abamele bangithokozise, ngileqiniso ngani lonke, ukuthi intokozo yami ingeyenu lonke.
Nandikile gunu nakolele koleleki omwanya nikaja kwemwe nitule okuutasha na bhaliya abho bheile okukondisha. Eniikanya emwe bhona ati okukondelelwa kwani nikwo okwemwe bhona.
4 Ngoba esizini olukhulu lekudabukeni kwenhliziyo ngalibhalela ngezinyembezi ezinengi, kungeyisikho ukuthi libangelwe usizi, kodwa ukuze lazi uthando olwengezelelweyo engilalo kini.
Kwo kubha nabhandikie emwe no kunyaka kwafu, no kulumwa mu mwoyo, na kwa masiga mafu. Nitakuja okubhaletelela emwe obwashe. Nindaga mumenye okwenda kunu ndinakwo kwimwe.
5 Kodwa uba ekhona obange usizi, kabanganga usizi kimi, kodwa nganxanye (ukuze ngingathwalisi nzima) kini lonke.
Alabha wona wona aletelesishe obwashe, ataletelesishe kwanye, nawe okutulao obhululu kwimwe bhona.
6 Kumanele onjalo lokhukukhuza okungokwabanengi;
Inu intambala yo munu unu kwa bhafu imwiile.
7 ukuze endaweni yalokho kungcono lithethelele liduduze, hlezi onjalo aginywe lusizi olwengezelelweyo.
Kulwejo woli intambala, ya unu namufwila echigongo no kumusilisha. Mukole kutyo koleleki atasingwa no kusulumbala okufula.
8 Ngakho ngiyalincenga ukuthi liqinise uthando lwenu kuye.
Kulwejo enibhalembelesha mugwatanye okwenda kwemwe abwelu kulwanye.
9 Ngoba ngenxa yalokhu futhi ngabhala, ukuze ngazi ukuhlolwa kwenu, uba lingabalalelayo ezintweni zonke.
Kubha nikwo andikiye, koleleki nitule okusakwa no kumenya kubha enibhongwa bhuli chinu.
10 Lalowo elimthethelela ulutho, lami ngiyamthethelela; ngoba mina uba ngithethelele ulutho, lowo engimthethelelayo, ngikwenza ngenxa yenu phambi kobuso bukaKristu,
Labha mukamusasila wona wona, anyona enimusasila omunu oyo. Chinu chinu niswaliliye labha niswaliliye chona chona chiswaliliwe ingulu yemwe kulwa okubhao Kristo.
11 ukuze singasetshenziswa nguSathane; ngoba kasisibo abangazi ngamaqhinga akhe.
Inu ilikutya Shetani ataja chikolela okuchijigajiga. Kulwokubha eswe chitali bhamumu kwe misango jae.
12 Lekufikeni kwami eTrowasi ngevangeli likaKristu, kwathi sengivulelwe umnyango eNkosini,
Omulyango gweguhye kwanye na Latabhugenyi anu nejile okuja mumusi gwa Troa okulasha emisango jo bhwana eja Kristo aliya.
13 kangibanga lokuphumula emoyeni wami, ngoba angimtholanga uTitosi umzalwane wami; kodwa ngasengivalelisa kubo ngasuka ngaya eMakedoniya.
Nolo kutyo, aliga ntana mulembe mumwoyo, kwainsonga ntamusangileo omuili wani Tito aliya. Kulwejo nabhasigilao ninsubha Makedonia.
14 Njalo kabongwe uNkulunkulu osikhokhelayo ngesikhathi sonke ekunqobeni kuKristu, njalo ebonakalisa ngathi iphunga lolwazi lwakhe endaweni zonke.
Nawe asimwe Nyamuanga, unu Mkristo mwanya gwona kachitangasha eswe mukuiga. Okulabhila kwiswe kanyalambula obhulange bhwakisi obhwobhwengeso bhwae mbala jona.
15 Ngoba siliphunga elimnandi likaKristu kuNkulunkulu kulabo abasindiswayo lakulabo ababhubhayo;
Kulwokubha eswe ku Nyamuanga, nibhulange bhwa kisi obhwa Kristo, bhona agati ya bhanu abhachungulwa na agati ya bhanu bhalisimagila.
16 kulaba iphunga lokufa ekufeni, lakwabanye iphunga elimnandi lempilo empilweni. Njalo ngubani olingene lezizinto?
Kubhanu bhanu abhasimagila, nibhulange okusoka mulufu okukinga mulufu. Kubhanu abhachungulwa, ni bhulange bhwakisi okusoka mubhuanga okukinga mubhuanga. Niga unu bhiile ebhinu bhinu?
17 Ngoba kasinjengabanengi, abalonayo ilizwi likaNkulunkulu; kodwa njengebuqothweni, njalo njengokuvela kuNkulunkulu, phambi kukaNkulunkulu sikhuluma sikuKristu.
Kulwokubha eswe chitali lwa bhanu abhandi bhanu abhagusha misango ja Nyamuanga kwokwibhikila. Na inyuma yejo, kubhwekisi bhwo bhwiganilisha, echiloma mu Kristo, lwakutyo echilagililwa okusoka ku Nyamuanga imbele ya Nyamuanga.
