Kwabase-Efesu 4
1 Ngakho ngiyalincenga, mina isibotshwa eNkosini, ukuthi lihambe ngokufanele ubizo elabizwa ngalo,
Minu Polo, ndidi mu nloko mu diambu di Pfumu ndikululeba, ludiatila mu khadulu yifuanikini ayi mbila yoyo kalutedila.
2 kanye lokuthobeka konke lobumnene, lokubekezela, libekezelelane ethandweni,
Bika luba batu bazebi kukikulula; badi nlembami ayi mvibudulu. Bika, mu luzolo, kadika mutu kazaba kanga ntima mu diambu di ndiandi.
3 likhuthale ukugcina ukuhlangana koMoya ngesibopho sokuthula.
Lunuana ngolo mu keba kithuadi mu Pheve Yinlongo, mu nzila yi ndembama.
4 Munye umzimba njalo munye uMoya, njengalokhu lani labizwa ethembeni linye lobizo lwenu;
Nitu yidi yimosi kaka ayi Pheve yidi yimosi kaka. Bobuawu Nzambi wulutela ku diana dimosi.
5 yinye iNkosi, lunye ukholo, lunye ubhabhathizo,
Pfumu yidi yimosi kaka, minu kidi kimosi kaka ayi mbotokolo yidi yimosi kaka.
6 munye uNkulunkulu loYise wabo bonke, ophezu kwabo bonke, langabo bonke, lakini lonke.
Nzambi widi wumosi kaka, niandi dise di babo, wunyadilanga batu boso, wunsalanga mu babo ayi widi mu babo.
7 Kodwa ngulowo lalowo wethu waphiwa umusa njengokwesilinganiso sesipho sikaKristu.
Vayi kadika mutu mu beto wutambula nlemvo boso bubela dikaba di Klisto.
8 Ngakho uthi: Ekwenyukeleni kwakhe phezulu wathumba ukuthunjwa, wanika abantu izipho.
Diawu katubila: Bu kakuma ku Diyilu, wunata basi nloko ayi wuvana batu makaba.
9 Lokhu-ke ukuthi: Wenyuka, kuyini ngaphandle kokuthi laye wehlela kuqala kungxenye ezingaphansi zomhlaba?
Vayi diambu diadi: wukuma ku Diyilu buevi dinsundula e? Dinsundula wutuama kuluka kuna tsi ntoto.
10 Owehlayo, nguye owenyukela futhi khatshana ngaphezulu kwamazulu wonke, ukuze agcwalise izinto zonke.
Mutu wowo wukuluka, niandi kuandi wukuma ku yilu vioka diyilu mu diambu kawesa bima bioso.
11 Yena wasenika abanye babe ngabaphostoli, labanye babe ngabaprofethi, labanye babe ngabavangeli, labanye babe ngabelusi labafundisi,
Bila niandi wuvana dikaba kuidi bankaka mu ba bamvuala, bankakamimbikudi, bankaka minsamuni mi Nsamu Wumboti, bankaka mimvungi ayi bankaka minlongi.
12 ekuphelelisweni kwabangcwele, emsebenzini wenkonzo, ekwakhiweni komzimba kaKristu;
Wuvanga buawu mu diambu di fuanisa banlongo mu sala kisalu kiawu ayi mu diambu di thungulu yi nitu yi Klisto;
13 size sifike sonke ebunyeni bokholo, lobolwazi lweNdodana kaNkulunkulu, endodeni epheleleyo, esilinganisweni sesimo sokugcwala kukaKristu;
nate beto boso tuela tula mu kithuadi kimosi mu minu ayi mu zaba bumboti Muana Nzambi ayi mu tula mu tezo ki mutu wuyunduka; mutu wowo wudedikini mu khudulu yiduka yi Klisto.
14 ukuze singabe sisaba zinsane, ezizuliswa ngamagagasi njalo ezithwalelwa le lale yiwo wonke umoya wemfundiso, ngenkohliso yabantu, ngobuqili becebo lokuphambuka;
Buna tulendi buela ba bana balezi ko, bobo bannatungu ayi bandiengosongo kuidi yoso-yoso pheve yi malongi meti singimina mu luvunulu batu ayi mu diela diawu di mbimbi di sadila zinzila zimbimbi mu diambu di zimbisa batu.
15 kodwa sikhulume iqiniso ethandweni sikhule kukho konke kuye, oyinhloko, uKristu,
Vayi beto zingilanga boso buididi mu luzolo, buna tuela yunduka mu mamo nate kuidi Klisto; niandi ntu wu Dibundu.
16 okuvela kuye umzimba wonke, ohlanganiswe kuhle njalo ubambene, ngokwelekelelana kwalo lonke ilunga, njengokusebenza esilinganisweni saleso laleso isitho, wenza ukukhula komzimba ekuzakheni kwawo ethandweni.
Mu niandi nitu yimvimba yidi yiyikakana ayi yibundana bumboti mu madikulu madi mu nitu. Buna kadika nama bu kieti sala kisalu kiandi mu bufuana, nitu yimvimba yilembo yunduka ayi yilembo tungu yawu veka mu luzolo.
17 Ngakho ngitsho lokho ngifakaza eNkosini, ukuthi lingabe lisahamba lanjengabanye abezizwe behamba ebuzeni bengqondo yabo,
Tala diambu ndikulukamba ayi ndibuela vutudila mu Pfumu ti: lubika buela diatila banga Bapakanu, banlandakananga mayindu mawu ma buvungisi
18 befiphaziwe engqondweni, benziwe abemzini empilweni kaNkulunkulu ngokungazi okukibo, ngobulukhuni benhliziyo yabo;
ayi diela diawu didi mu tombi. Diawu badidi banzenza mu luzingu lu Nzambi mu diambu di buvulu buidi mu bawu, buntotukilanga mu mintimamiawu midi banga matadi.
19 abathi sebentunyile, bazinikela emanyaleni, ekwenzeni kokungcola konke ngomhawu.
Bazimbisa mambu moso momo ma kimutu; bakiyekula mu vanganga mambuma tsoni mu diambu bavanga mambu moso masumuka ma phila mu phila.
20 Kodwa lina kalimfundanga ngokunjalo uKristu,
Vayi buawu ko beno lulongukila Klisto.
21 uba-ke limzwile lafundiswa kuye, njengoba iqiniso likuJesu;
Bila beno lusudika mambu momo batuba mu diambu diandi ayi momo balulonga mu niandi mu phila yi mambu ma kiedika madi mu Yesu.
22 ukuthi lilahle mayelana lohambo lokuqala, umuntu omdala, owonakala mayelana lezifiso zenkohliso;
Buna lubika nzingulu eno yi khulu, luloza kimutu kieno kikhulu kiokizinzinunu zi luvunu zilembo bivisa.
23 njalo lenziwe batsha emoyeni wengqondo yenu,
Vayi lukituka bamona mu pheve yi diela dieno.
24 njalo lembathe umuntu omutsha, odalwe njengokukaNkulunkulu ekulungeni lebungcweleni beqiniso.
Bika luvuata mutu wumona, wuvangulu boso bubela mayindu ma Nzambi, mu busonga ayi mu bunlongo bu kiedika.
25 Ngakho lilahla amanga, khulumani iqiniso ngulowo lalowo lomakhelwane wakhe; ngoba siyizitho omunye komunye.
Diawu lubika vunasana beno na beno, vayi, bika kadika mutu katuba mambu ma kiedika kuidi ndiandi, bila beto boso tuidi binama bi nitu yimosi.
26 Thukuthelani lingoni; ilanga kalingatshoni phezu kolaka lwenu;
Enati fuema lufuemini, lukeba tala luedi vola masumu; lubika lunda nganzi nate va masika.
27 futhi lingamniki indawo udiyabhola.
Lubika vana satana diluaku.
28 Owebayo kangabe eseba; kodwa kulalokhu kakhuthale, asebenze okuhle ngezandla zakhe, ukuze abe lakho ukwabela olenswelo.
Mutu wowo wubedi yibanga bika kabika buivi; vayi bika kasala ayi kasala mu mioko miandi kisalu kioki kidi kifuana mu diambu kabakabiobi kafueti kabudila bobo badi basukama.
29 Kakungaphumi emlonyeni wenu lalinye ilizwi elibolileyo, kodwa kuphela okuhle okulungele ukwakha njengokufaneleyo, ukuze kunike umusa kubo abezwayo.
Bika mambu mambimbi mabika totukila mu miunu mieno. Vayi momo kaka madi mamboti, mafueni mu tunga minu boso buididi zitsatu ziawu mu diambu mamonisa mamboti kuidi batu bobo balembo wa mawu.
30 Njalo lingamdabukisi uMoya oyiNgcwele kaNkulunkulu, elaphawulwa ngaye kuze kube lusuku lohlengo.
Lubika monisa pheve Yinlongo yi Nzambi kiadi bila mu Pheve beni Nzambi katudila dimbu kiandi mu beno mu diambu di lumbu ki khudulu.
31 Konke ukubaba lentukuthelo lolaka lomsindo lokunyeya kakususwe kini, kanye layo yonke inzondo;
Bika mambu ma ndudi, ma kikhesi, ma nganzi ayi ma yamikinina, ma mfingulu mabotuka mu beno va kimosi ayi mambu mamo mambimbi.
32 kodwa libe mnene omunye komunye, lilesihawu, lithethelelane, njengalokhu uNkulunkulu laye walithethelela kuKristu.
Bika kadika mutu kamonika mutu wumboti kuidi ndiandi; lumonasanangakiadi, lulemvukilanga badieno banga bobo Nzambi kalulemvukila mu Klisto.
