Pu mudeinchiwe isekhe incha yeilweli, mwa Yeisu Keileisite, mumbudwadwa nulunghinio lwa Nguluve.
12 Kodwa ngithanda ukuthi lazi, bazalwane, ukuthi izinto ezangehlelayo zenza kakhulu ukuqhutshelwa phambili kwevangeli;
Pu lieno valukolo lwango ninonghwa mulumanye ukhuta nghooni anghahumile khulyune nghapelile ukhuta eilimenyu puleinchovivwaghwe fincho.
13 zize izibopho zami kuKristu zibonakale esigodlweni sonke lakwabanye bonke,
Punavuvunkungwa vwango uvwa minyololo puvumanyeikhikhe mwa Keileisite khuvasikhali avaloleli navange vooni.
14 labazalwane abanengi eNkosini, beqiniswe ngezibopho zami, sebelesibindi esikhulu sokukhuluma ilizwi ngokungesabi.
Navalukolo lwango vango vingi mwa Keileisite savuli yavunkungwa vwa minyololo wango, vanonghilwe nukhuva vanu vakhuleilumbeileila Eilimenyu khivula vudwanchi.
15 Abanye kambe batshumayela uKristu ngomona langombango, labanye kambe ngenhliziyo enhle;
Avange vikhuleilumbeileila eilimenyo ni ngofyo neikhivinipu avange khuvufumbwe uvunonu.
16 laba batshumayela uKristu ngokuphikisana, bengelaqiniso, besithi baletha ukuhlupheka ekubotshweni kwami;
Vala avavikhundumbeileila uYeisu nulunghano valumanyile ukhuta neiveikhiwe ukhuta neitangeile eilimenyu nukhuleitengelela.

Pu leino? Sani, sangha khinu pu eingave savuli ya ngofyo nda puyeingave mumbwa yeilweli, uKeileisite ilumbeileiliwa pu lieno nihovokha lweli une punihovokha.
19 Ngoba ngiyazi ukuthi lokhu kuzaphendukela kimi esindisweni ngomkhuleko wenu, langokwelekelela kukaMoya kaJesu Kristu,
Ulwakhuva neilumanyile ukhuta angha yanghivenchangha vupokhi vwango. Puyayiva ewo savuli ya nyeisayo ncheinyo nuvulangeili vw Mepo Umbalanche.
20 njengokulindela okukhulu lethemba lami, ukuthi kangiyikuyangiswa ngalutho, kodwa ngesibindi sonke, njengesikhathi sonke, lakhathesi uKristu uzakhuliswa emzimbeni wami, loba ngempilo, kumbe ngokufa.
Ukhukongana nuluhuvilo lwango ulwa yeilweli, khukuta sangavone soni. Pu lieno khu vukifa vwoni, nduvu isikhu nchooni na leileino nihuveil ukhuta uKeileisite ikhweimeikhivwagwa mumbeile nghwango ndupuyeingave mbwumi yeive mbufwe ikweimeikhivwanghwa.
21 Ngoba kimi ukuphila kunguKristu, lokufa kuyinzuzo.
Ulwakhuva khulyune une, uvutamo vei Keileisite ukhufwa vukavi.
22 Kodwa uba ukuphila enyameni kuyisithelo somsebenzi kimi, lengizakukhetha kangikwazi.
Pu lieno eingave ukhulama kheimbeilei khwihola isekhe mumbombo yango, pu lieno saneilumanyile uvunonghwe vwango vyuvuleikhu.
23 Ngoba ngiminyezelwe ngokubili; ngilesifiso sokusuka lokuba loKristu, okungcono kakhulukazi;
Pakhuva nikwenghiwa fincho na masanghe angha ngaveilei neileinuvunonghwe vwa khunghuleikha umbeile puneive paninie nu Keileisite, ikhinu khikhyo khyuma fincho.
24 kodwa ukuhlala enyameni kuyasweleka kakhulu ngenxa yenu.
Nu puyeingave ukhusinghala mumbeilei unghu khinu khinonu fiincho palyumwe.
25 Njalo ngilalelithemba ngiyazi ukuthi ngizakuba khona, ngihlale lani lonke, ekuqhubekeni kwenu lentokozweni yokholo,

26 ukuze ukuzincoma kwenu ngami kwengezwe kuKristu Jesu kimi, ngobukhona bami kini futhi.
Pu eiyei yeinghegangha uluhekhelo lweinyo uluvaha mwa Yeisu uKeileisite, savuli yakhuvepo khwango paninie numwe.
27 Kuphela hambani ngokufanele ivangeli likaKristu, kuze kuthi, loba ngifika ngilibona, loba ngingekho, ngizwe indaba zenu, zokuthi limi emoyeni munye, ngangqondonye lilwela ukholo lwevangeli ndawonye,
Mnonghiwa ukhutama emita meile nghyinyo ulunonu ulunonghelanile nei limenyu lya Keileisite. Muvombanghe evwo ukhuta neinginche nukhuvavona umwe ndapuniengasita ukhwincha, neipuleikhanghe eiyakhuta mweimile khikangafu munumbula yeimo, nuvufumbwe vumo, pakhuyeivo mbelela imbombo ya lweideikho lwa limenyu.
28 njalo lingethuswa ngalutho ngabaphikisayo; okuyisibonakaliso kubo sokubhubha, kodwa kini esosindiso, njalo lokhu kuvela kuNkulunkulu;
hange mulekhe ukhuvadwada avalunghu veinyo. Pu eiyei khuvene khihwani khya vunangi. Pu leino khulyumwe khihwani khya vupokhi ukhuhuma khwa Nguluve.
29 ngoba lanikwa ngesihle esikhundleni sikaKristu, kungeyisikho ukukholwa kuye kuphela, kodwa lokumhluphekela;
ulwakhuva mupevilwe savuli ya Keileisite sayeileipakhumweideikha vuvule pu yeilei nakhukhunkuveilwa savuli ya Mwene.
30 lilokulwa okufananayo njengalokho elakubona kimi, lelikuzwa kimi khathesi.
pu mungave mukilana ulukila no lulalula nduvumwaluvwene kulyune nukhupuleikha ukhuta naleileino nipikilana.
