KumaHebhere 13

¹Uthando lobuzalwana maluhlale luhleli.

²Musani ukukulibala ukubuka iindwendwe; kuba ngokwenjenjalo inxenye ibuke izithunywa zezulu, ingazi.

³Bakhumbuleleni abakhonkxiweyo, ninge nikhonkxiwe nani; nabo ke baphathwa kakubi, njengokuba nisemzimbeni nani.

⁴Umtshato mawubekeke ngeendlela zonke, nesilili masingadyojwa; ke abenza umbulo nabakrexezi, uThixo uya kubagweba.

⁵Isimilo senu masibe sesingathandi mali, yanelani zizinto eninazo; kuba etshilo yena ukuthi, Andiyi kukha ndikuyekele; wabuya wathi, Andiyi kukha ndikushiye;

⁶ngokokude somelele sithi, INkosi ilusizo lwam, andiyi koyika; Wondenza ntoni na umntu?

⁷Bakhumbuleleni abakhokeli benu, abalithethayo kuni ilizwi likaThixo; nisingasinga impumelelo yehambo yabo, nixelise bona elukholweni lwabo.

⁸UYesu Kristu ukwanguye izolo, nanamhla, ase nakuwo amaphakade.

⁹Musani ukuphetshethwa ziimfundiso ngeemfundiso nezingezizo; kuba kuhle ukuba intliziyo iqine lubabalo; kungabi ngeento ezidliwayo, abangancedekanga zizo abo bahamba kuzo.

¹⁰Sinesibingelelo thina, abangenagunya lakudla kuso abo bakhonza umnquba.

¹¹Kuba ezo zinto ziphilileyo, zigazi lazo lingeniswa ngenxa yesono kweyona ngcwele nguye umbingeleli omkhulu, imizimba yazo itshiselwa ngaphandle kweminquba.

¹²Kungoko athe noYesu, ukuze abangcwalise abantu ngelilelakhe igazi, weva ubunzima ngaphandle kwesango.

¹³Masiphume ke ngoko siye kuye ngaphandle kweminquba, sithwele ingcikivo yakhe.

¹⁴Kuba apha asinamzi uhleliyo, singxamele lowo uza kuza.

¹⁵Ngoko masithi ngaye sinyuse ngamaxesha onke kuye uThixo umbingelelo wendumiso, oko kukuthi, isiqhamo somlomo olivumayo igama lakhe.

¹⁶Ke ukwenza okuhle nobudlelane, musani ukukulibala; kuba imibingelelo enjalo uyakholiswa kakuhle yiyo uThixo.

¹⁷Bathambeleni abakhokeli benu, nibathobele; kuba bona abalali, ngenxa yemiphefumlo yenu, ngokwabaya kuphendula, ukuze bakwenze oko bevuyile, bengancwini; kuba anisizakali kuko oko.

¹⁸Sithandazeleni; kuba sikholosekile kukuthi sinesazela esilungileyo, singa ezintweni zonke singahamba kakuhle.

¹⁹Ndiyavuselela ke ngokugqithiseleyo, ukuba nikwenze oko, ukuze ndibuyiselwe kuni kamsinyane.

²⁰Ke kaloku uThixo woxolo, lowo wamvusayo kwabafileyo uMalusi oMkhulu wezimvu, ngegazi lomnqophiso ongunaphakade,

²¹iNkosi yethu uYesu, wanga anganilungisa, nigqibelele emisebenzini yonke elungileyo, ukuze nikwenze ukuthanda kwakhe, esenza ngaphakathi kwenu oko kukholekileyo emehlweni akhe, ngoYesu Kristu. Kuye makubekho uzuko, luse emaphakadeni asemaphakadeni. Amen.

²²Ndiyanivuselela ke nina, bazalwana, linyamezeleni ilizwi lovuselelo olu; kuba ke ndinibhalele ngokufutshane.

²³Yazini ukuba umzalwana wethu uTimoti ukhululwe; endothi, xa angaba uthe wafika kamsinya, ndinibone ndinaye.

²⁴Babuliseni bonke abakhokeli benu, nabo bonke abangcwele. Bayanibulisa abavela eItaliya.

²⁵Ubabalo malube nani nonke. Amen.
