1 Okunye-ke, bazalwane, siyalincenga silikhuthaza eNkosini uJesu, njengalokhu lakwemukela kithi ukuthi kulifanele njani ukuhamba lokumthokozisa uNkulunkulu, ukuze lengezelele kukho kakhulu.
Kungai bhakilishitu ajangunji, tunakunshondelesheyanga na kunnjuganga kwa lina lya Bhakulungwa a Yeshu, malinga shimwiijigenyenje kopoka kwetu uwe kutama nkwaanonyeya a Nnungu, na malinga shinkutamanganashi, nnapinjikwanga mpundanje kutenda nneyo.
2 Ngoba liyazi ukuthi milayo bani esalinika yona ngeNkosi uJesu.
Pabha nnikumbushilanga malajilo gutwampelenje gala, kwa mashili ga Bhakulungwa a Yeshu.
3 Ngoba le yintando kaNkulunkulu, ukungcweliswa kwenu, ukuthi lizithinte ekuphingeni;
A Nnungu bhanapinga mmanganya mmanganje bha ukonjelo nnikwiembuyanga na labhalabha.
4 ukuthi ngulowo lalowo wenu kakwazi ukugcina esakhe isitsha ekungcweliseni lekuhlonipheni,
Kila jwannume amanye kwiigoya nnyene atame kwa ukonjelo na ishima,
5 kungeyisikho enkanukweni yesifiso, njengabezizwe labo abangamaziyo uNkulunkulu.
nngabha kwa ilokoli yangali ya mmbone malinga shibhatendanga bhandunji bhakakwaamanyanga a Nnungu.
6 Kakungabi khona oweqayo aqile umfowabo endabeni; ngoba iNkosi ingumphindiseli ngazo zonke lezizinto, njengoba lathi salitshela ngaphambili, safakaza.
Bhai kwa gene malobhe gano, mundu jojowe ananneebhele nnjakwe eu kuntekeya kwa ligongo lya ilokoli yakwe. Twammalanjilenje genego na kunneyanga kuti Bhakulungwa shibhaaukumulanje bhatendanga genego.
7 Ngoba uNkulunkulu kasibizelanga emanyaleni, kodwa ebungcweleni.
Pabha a Nnungu bhangatushema nkupinga tutende ya nyata, ikabhe tutame muukonjelo.
8 Ngakho lowo odelelayo, kadeleli muntu, kodwa uNkulunkulu owasinika futhi uMoya wakhe oyiNgcwele.
Bhai, kwa nneyo akana gene majiganyogo, akakunkana mundu, ikabhe anakwaakana a Nnungu bhayene, bhakumpanganga Mbumu jwabho jwa Ukonjelo.
9 Kodwa mayelana lothando lobuzalwane kalidingi ukuthi ngilibhalele; ngoba lina uqobo lifundisiwe nguNkulunkulu ukuthi lithandane;
Ga pingana, bhakilishitu ajetunji nkwetenje ngulupai, tukannjandishilanga pabha mwaashayene nnjigenywenje na a Nnungu ga pingana.
10 ngoba lani lenza lokhu kubo bonke abazalwane abaseMakedoniya yonke; kodwa siyalikhuthaza, bazalwane, ukuthi lengezelele kakhulu,
Pabha nnatendanga nneyo kwa bhakilishitu ajetunji bhowe bhalinginji ku Makedonia. Bhai, tunakunnjuganga mpundanje tenda nneyo.
11 njalo likhuthalele ukuba lokuthula lokwenza okwenu, lokusebenza ngezenu izandla, njengoba salilaya;
Nntamangananje kwa kwitimalika, kila mundu atende indu yakwe nyene na tenda liengo malinga shitwannajilenje.
12 ukuze lihambe ngokuhlonitshwa ngabangaphandle, lingasweli lutho.
Kwa tenda nneyo shinnumbililwanje na bhandunji bhangabha Bhakilishitu, wala nkalolelanga kujangutilwa indu naka mundu jojowe.
13 Kodwa kangithandi ukuthi lingabi lalwazi, bazalwane, ngalabo abaleleyo, ukuze lingadabuki, njengabanye labo abangelathemba.
Ikabheje bhakilishitu ajetunji, tukaapinga nnamumanyanje ga bhandu bhawilenje, nkupinga nnainjikanga malinga bhandunji bhana bhangalinginji na ngulupai.
14 Ngoba uba sikholwa ukuthi uJesu wafa wavuka, ngokunjalo-ke labo abalele kuJesu, uNkulunkulu uzabaletha kanye laye.
Pabha uwe tunakulupalila kuti a Yeshu bhashinkuwa niyuka, nneyo peyo tunakulupalila kuti a Nnungu kupitila a Yeshu, bhowe bhawilenje bhalikwaakulupalilanga a Yeshu, a Nnungu shibhaajianabhonji pamo na a Yeshu.
15 Ngoba lokhu sikutsho kini ngelizwi leNkosi, ukuthi thina esiphilayo esitshiywe kuze kube sekufikeni kweNkosi, isibili kasiyikubaqalela labo asebelele;
Pabha kwa tolelela na majiganyo ga Bhakulungwa ni kuti, tubhabhakoto uwe, shitulepeshe mpaka malanga gushibhaishe Bhakulungwa, kweli tukaalongolelanga bhawilenje bhala.
16 ngoba iNkosi uqobo izakwehla ivela ezulwini ngesimemezelo sokulawula, ngelizwi lengilosi eyinduna, langokukhala kophondo lukaNkulunkulu, labafileyo kuKristu bazavuka kuqala;
Pabha Bhakulungwa bhayene shibhatulushe kopoka kunnungu na lilobhe lya utiya, na akuno lilobhe lya utiya lika malaika nkulu lilipilikanika, na akuno mbalapala ja a Nnungu jilipilikanika, na bhawilenje bhalikwakulupalilanga a Yeshu bhala, shibhabhanganje bha ntai kuyuywa.
17 kulandele thina esiphilayo esitshiyiweyo, sizahluthunelwa kanye labo emayezini siyehlangabeza iNkosi emoyeni; ngokunjalo besesihlala leNkosi njalonjalo.
Kungai uwe tuli tubhabhakoto shitunyakulwe pamo na bhanganyabho kukwaposhela Bhakulungwa kunani. Kwa nneyo shitutame nabho mobha gowe.
18 Ngakho duduzanani ngalamazwi.
Bhai, ntagananje ntima kwa gene malobhega.
