Kuka malaika jwa Likanisha lya ku Shalidi nnjandishe nnei. “Gegano ni malobhe ga bhene bhakwete mbumu shabha ya a Nnungu, na ndondwa shabha ila. Niimanyi itendi yako, nkali ushuma kuti ukwete gumiyo, ugwe uwile.
2 Woba ulindile, uqinise izinto eziseleyo esezizakufa; ngoba kangitholanga imisebenzi yakho iphelelisiwe phambi kukaNkulunkulu.
Jumuka na ubhishe ukoto yowe ili tome nawa, pabha niibhweni itendi yako kuti yangakamilika pa meyo ga a Nnungu bhangu.
3 Khumbula-ke ukuthi ukwemukele wakuzwa njani, ubusukugcina, uphenduke. Uba-ke ungalindi, ngizakuza phezu kwakho njengesela, njalo kawusoze walazi ihola engizakuza ngalo phezu kwakho.

Ikabheje ukwete bhandu bhashoko ku Shalidi bhakanabhe nyatiyanga nngubho yabhonji. Bhene bhanganyabho ni shibhalongane na nne bhawetenje nngubho yanawe, pabha ni bhaapinjikwanga.”
5 Onqobayo, lowo uzagqokiswa izembatho ezimhlophe; futhi kangisoze ngilesule ibizo lakhe egwalweni lwempilo, njalo ngizalivuma ibizo lakhe phambi kukaBaba, laphambi kwengilosi zakhe.

9 Khangela ngizakunika abavela esinagogeni likaSathane, abathi bangamaJuda, bengeyisiwo, kodwa beqamba amanga; khangela ngizabenza ukuthi beze baguqe phambi kwenyawo zakho, njalo bazi ukuthi mina ngikuthandile.

10 Ngoba ugcinile ilizwi lokubekezela kwami, lami ngizakulondoloza kuhola lokulingwa okuzafika emhlabeni wonke, ukulinga abakhileyo phezu komhlabathi.
Pabha ushikamulila lilobhe lyangu lya kwiipililila, numbe nne shinikubhishile ulinda ushoshe mmalanga ga shilaje gakwiya pa shilambolyo powe, nkupinga kwaalinganga bhaatamangana pa shilambolyo.

12 Onqobayo, ngizamenza insika ethempelini likaNkulunkulu wami; njalo kasoze aphinde aphume phandle, futhi ngizabhala ibizo likaNkulunkulu wami phezu kwakhe, lebizo lomuzi kaNkulunkulu wami, iJerusalema entsha, eyehla ivela ezulwini kuNkulunkulu wami, lebizo lami elitsha.
Jwene shaakombole kutenda ukoto kupunda bhananjijo, shinintende kubha lipoto lya liekalu lya a Nnungu bhangu, na akashoka mwenemo kabhili. Na kabhili pa ntundu jakwe shinyandishe lina lya a Nnungu bhangu, na lina lya shilambo sha a Nnungu bhangu, yani Yelushalemu ja ambi, jituluka kopoka kunnungu, kwa a Nnungu bhangu.

14 Lakuso isithunywa sebandla lamaLawodikeya bhala uthi: Lezizinto utsho uAmeni, umfakazi othembekileyo loqotho, owokuqala kokudaliweyo kukaNkulunkulu:
Kuka malaika jwa Likanisha lya ku Laodikia nnjandishe nnei. Gegano ni malobhe ga bhene bhali Amina yani, Nneyo Peyo, bhaakong'ondela bhaakulupalika na bha kweli, bhali nantando jwa indu yowe ipengenywe na a Nnungu.

16 Ngokunjalo, ngoba ubuthukuthuku, njalo ungaqandi futhi ungatshisi, ngizakukhafula emlonyeni wami.
Bhai, pabha ugwe ushibha jwa ntukuta, ukaima na wala ukaabhabhula shinikuune ukoposhe nkang'wa jangu.

Nne ngunakwaakalipilanga na kwaakomanga bhowe bhungwaapinganga, kwa nneyo utumbilile kwiipeta yambi yako.
20 Khangela, ngimi emnyango ngiqoqoda; uba umuntu esizwa ilizwi lami, abesevula umnyango, ngizangena kuye, ngidle laye, laye lami.
Lola, ngunajima pa nnango niolishiya, mundu apilikanaga lilobhe lyangu niugula, shinyinjile munngwakwemo, na shutulye pamo.
21 Onqobayo, ngizamnika ukuthi ahlale lami esihlalweni sami sobukhosi, njengalokhu lami nganqoba, ngasengihlala loBaba esihlalweni sakhe sobukhosi.
Jwene shaakombole kutenda ukoto kupunda bhananjijo, shinimmishe tome na shitengu shangu sha upalume, malinga nne shingombwele kutenda ukoto, gundemi tome na Atati pa shitengu shabho sha upalume.
