< KwabaseRoma 15 >
1 Kodwa thina esilamandla sifanele ukuthwala ubuthakathaka babangelamandla, njalo singazithokozisi thina.
Henu tete jhatujhele ni nghofu twilondeke kutola bhudhaifu, bhwa bhajhele bhadhaifu, na twilondeka lepi kwipendekesya twebhene.
2 Ngoba ngulowo lalowo wethu kathokozise umakhelwane kube kuhle ekumakheni.
Khila mmonga bhitu ampendesiajhi jirani ghwa muene kwani lijambo linofu kwa lengo lya kun'jenga.
3 Ngoba laye uKristu kazithokozisanga yena, kodwa, kunjengokulotshiweyo ukuthi: Ukuthuka kwabakuthukayo kwawela phezu kwami.
Kwani hata Kristu akakipendekisi lepi muene. Badala jhiake, jhajhele kama kyajhalembibhu, “Malighu gha bhala ambabho bhakulighili ghanikabhili nene.”
4 Ngoba konke okwabhalwa ngaphambili, kwabhalelwa ukufundiswa kwethu, ukuze ngokubekezela langenduduzo yemibhalo sibe lethemba.
Kwa kyokyoha kyakilongolili kulembibhu likusudi kujha kup'etela bhusindamalu ni bhwa kupela muoyo ni majhandiku ngatujhele ni bhujasiri.
5 Njalo uNkulunkulu wokubekezela lenduduzo kaliphe ukuthi libe nhliziyonye phakathi kwenu njengokukaKristu Jesu;
Henu K'yara ghwa bhuvumilivu ni bhwa kupele muoyo abhapelayi kujha ni nia sabhwa khwa khila mmonga kul'engana ni Yesu Kristu.
6 ukuze nganhliziyonye ngomlomo munye limdumise uNkulunkulu, ngitsho uYise weNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu.
Abhwesiajhi kubhomba naha kwa nia jhimonga mubhwesiajhi kun'tufya kwa kinywa kimonga K'yara ni Dadi ghwa Bwana bhitu Yesu Kristu.
7 Ngakho yemukelanani, njengalokhu loKristu wasemukela, kube ludumo lukaNkulunkulu.
Henu mun'jambel'elajhi khila mmonga, kama fela Kristu kyaabhajhambelili, kwa bhutukufu bhwa K'yara.
8 Njalo ngithi, uJesu Kristu waba yinceku yokusoka ngenxa yeqiniso likaNkulunkulu, ukuthi aqinise izithembiso zabobaba;
Kwani nijobha kwamba Kristu abhombili mtumishi ghwa tohara kwa niaba jha bhukweli bhwa K'yara. Abhombili naha ili abhwesiajhi kuthibitisya ahadi syasyahomesibhu kwa bhadadi,
9 lezizwe zimdumise uNkulunkulu ngenxa yesihawu; njengokulotshiweyo ukuthi: Ngakho ngizakuvuma phakathi kwezizwe, ngihubele ibizo lakho izibongo.
ni kwa mataifa kun'tufya K'yara kwa neema jha muene. Kama kyajhalembibhu, “Henu nibetakuhomesya sifa kwa bhebhe miongoni mwa mataifa ni kujhemba sifa kwa lihina lyajhobhi.”
10 Njalo futhi uthi: Thokozani, bezizwe, kanye labantu bakhe.
Kabhele jhijobha, “Muhobhokayi, muenga bhanu bha mataifa, pamonga ni bhanu bha muene.”
11 Futhi-ke: Dumisani iNkosi lina bezizwe lonke; idumiseni-ke lina bantu bonke.
Ni kabhele, “Mun'tufiajhi K'yara, muenga mataifa ghoha; lekayi bhanu bha mataifa ghoha bhan'tufiajhi muene.”
12 Njalo futhi uIsaya uthi: Kuzakuba khona impande kaJese, lophakamela ukubusa abezizwe; abezizwe bazathembela kuye.
Kabhele Isaya ijobha, “Kwibetakujha ni lishina lya Yese, ni mmonga jhaibetakujhinuka kutabhwala panani pa mataifa. Mataifa bhibetakujha ni tumaini kwa muene.”
13 Kungathi-ke uNkulunkulu wethemba angaligcwalisa ngentokozo yonke langokuthula ekukholweni, ukuze lengezwe ethembeni, ngamandla kaMoya oNgcwele.
Henu K'yara ghwa tumaini abhamemesiajhi ni furaha jhioha ni amani kwa kukiera, ili kwamba mubhwesiajhi kujhongeseka mu matumaini, kwa nghofu jha Roho Mtakatifu.
14 Lami-ke ngokwami nganelisiwe ngani, bazalwane bami, ukuthi lani ngokwenu ligcwele okuhle, ligcwaliswe yikwazi konke, lilamandla-ke okwelulekana.
Nene ne muene nishawishibhu namu, bhalongo bhangu. Nishawishibhu kujha kabhele muenga kabhele mwebhene mmemesibhu ni bhwema, mmemesibhu ni maarifa ghoha. Nishawishibhu kujha muenga kabhele mwihotola kabhele kuhimisyana khila mmonga njinu.
15 Kodwa, bazalwane, ngilibhalele ngesibindi esikhulu, nganxanye, njengolikhumbuzayo, ngenxa yomusa engiwuphiweyo nguNkulunkulu,
nilemba kwa bhujasiri nesu kwa muenga panani pa mambo fulani ili kubhakhombosya kabhele, ndabha jha kipawa kyanapelibhu ni K'yara.
16 ukuze ngibe yisikhonzi sikaJesu Kristu kwabezizwe, ngikhonze ivangeli likaNkulunkulu, ukuze iminikelo yabezizwe yemukeleke, kwenziwe kube ngcwele ngoMoya oNgcwele.
Kipawa e'khe kyajhele kujha nibhwesiajhi kujha mtumishi bhwa Yesu Kristu jhaatumibhu kwa mataifa, kwihomesya kama kuhani ghwa injili jha K'yara. Nganibhwesili kubhomba naha ili kwihomesya kwa nene kwa mataifa kujhelayi kujhedekelibhu, kutengibhu ni K'yara kwa njela jha Roho Mtakatifu.
17 Ngakho ngilokuzincoma kuKristu Jesu ezintweni eziqondane loNkulunkulu;
Naha furaha jha nene jhijhele kwa Kristu Yesu ni mu mambo gha K'yara.
18 ngoba kangiyikuba lesibindi sokukhuluma ulutho lwezinto uKristu angazenzanga ngami, ukuze kube khona ukulalela kwabezizwe, ngelizwi langesenzo,
Kwani nithubutu lepi kujobha lyolyoha lela isipokujha kwamba Kristu akamilisi kup'etela kwa nene bhutii bhwa mataifa. Mambo agha ghatimisibhu kwa lilobhi ni litendo,
19 ngamandla ezibonakaliso lezimangaliso, ngamandla kaMoya kaNkulunkulu; ngakho kusukela eJerusalema lendawo ezizingelezeleyo kuze kufike eIliriku ngitshumayele ivangeli likaKristu ngokupheleleyo;
kwa nghofu sya ishara ni maajabu, ni kwa nghofu sya Roho Mtakatifu. Ejhe jhajhele ili kujha kuhoma Yerusalemu, ni kusyongokhela kutali kama Iliriko, nibhwesiajhi kujhitola kwibhala kwa bhukalimilifu injili jha Kristu.
20 ngokunjalo ngazama kakhulu ukutshumayela ivangeli, kungeyisikho lapho uKristu abizwe khona, ukuze ngingakhi phezu kwesisekelo somunye;
Kwa njela ejhe, nia jha nene jhijhele kujhitangasya injili, lakini si mahali Kristu imanyikana kwa lihina, ili kwamba nibhwesiajhi kujenga panani pa msingi bhwa munu jhongi.
21 kodwa, njengokulotshiweyo ukuthi: Abangatshelwanga ngaye, bazabona, labangezwanga, bazaqedisisa.
Kama kyajhilembibhu: “Ambabho kwa muene bhajhelepi ni habari sya muene ahidili bhibetakumbona, ni bhala ambabho bhamp'eliki lepi bhibetakummanya.”
22 Ngenxa yalokho futhi ngavinjelwa kanengi ukuza kini;
Henu najhele kabhele nibesibhu mara simehele kuhida kwa muenga.
23 kodwa khathesi-ke lokhu ngingaselandawo kulezizabelo, futhi sekuyiminyaka eminengi ngilesifiso esikhulu sokuza kini,
Lakini henu, nijhelepi ni sehemu jhojhioha jhela mu mikoa ejhe, na nihogheleghe kwa miaka ghimehele kuhida kwa muenga.
24 ngokunjalo nxa ngizakuya eSpaniya, ngizakuza kini; ngoba ngithemba ukuthi ngizalibona ekudluleni, njalo ngiphelekezelwe yini khona, uba kuqala sengisuthisekile nganxanye ngilani.
Efyo mara syoha nilota Hispania, nitumaini kubhabhona nikapetayi, ni kubhwesya kulongosibhwa njela jha nene ni muenga, baada jha kujha nihobhokili bhushirika ni muenga kwa muda.
25 Kodwa khathesi-ke ngiya eJerusalema, ngikhonze abangcwele.
Lakini henu nilota Yerusalemu kubhahudumila bhaumini.
26 Ngoba kwaba kuhle eMakedoniya leAkaya ukwenzela umnikelo othile abayanga kwabangcwele abaseJerusalema.
Ndabha nabhapendisi bhanu bha Makedonia ni Akaya kubhomba, changizo maalumu kwa bhabonji miongoni mwa bhaumini okhu Yerusalemu.
27 Ngoba kwaba kuhle kubo, njalo balomlandu kubo. Ngoba uba abezizwe behlanganyela labo ezintweni zabo zomoya, balomlandu futhi wokubasebenzela ezintweni zenyama.
Ena, jhajhele kwa luganu kwa bhene, bhuhakika, mwidaibhwa ni bhene. Ikajhelayi mataifa bhashiriki mu mambo gha bhene kabhele kubhahudumila mumahitaji gha fenu.
28 Ngakho nxa sengiqede lokhu, sengibaphawulele lesisithelo, ngizasuka ngiye eSpaniya ngidlule ngakini.
Henu, bhonikamilisi naha nikujha ni bhutoshelefu bhwa litunda elu kwa bhene, nene nibetakulota munjela pamonga ni muenga okhu Hispania.
29 Ngiyazi-ke ukuthi nxa ngisiza kini ngizafika ekugcwaleni kwesibusiso sevangeli likaKristu.
Nimanyili kujha, bho nihida kwa muenga nibeta kuhida mu bhutimilifu bhwa baraka sya Kristu.
30 Ngiyalincenga-ke, bazalwane, ngayo iNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu, langothando lukaMoya, ukuthi lilwise kanye lami emikhulekweni kuNkulunkulu ngami;
Henu nikabhasihi, bhalongo, kwa Bwanabhitu Yesu Kristu, ni kwa luganu lwa Roho, kujha nishirikiajhi pamonga ni nene mu maombi gha jhomu kwa K'yara kwa ndabha jha nene.
31 ukuze ngophulwe kwabangakholwayo eJudiya, njalo ukuze umsebenzi wami ongoweJerusalema wemukeleke kubo abangcwele;
Musomelayi kujha nibhwesiajhi kuokolibhwa kuhoma kwa bhabhabeli kujha ni bhutii mu Yudea, ni kwamba huduma jha nene okhu Yerusalemu jhibhwesiajhi kupokelibhwa ni bhaumini.
32 ukuze ngentando kaNkulunkulu ngize kini ngentokozo, ngivuseleleke kanye lani.
Musokayi kujha nibhwesya kuhida kwa muenga kwa kuhobhoka kupetela mapenzi gha K'yara, ni kwamba bibhwesiajhi kujha pamonga ni muenga, kubhwesya kup'omoseka.
33 Ngakho uNkulunkulu wokuthula kabe lani lonke. Ameni.
Ni K'yara ghwa amani ajhelayi pamonga ni muenga mwebhoha. Amina
