Kwehlulela kwaNkulunkulu kulungile
1 Ngako-ke ngeke utilandvulele, wena muntfu-ndzini, nome ngabe ungubani wena lowehlulelako; ngobe ngekwehlulela lomunye utilahla wena, ngobe nawe lowehlulelako uyakwenta kona loko. 2Siyati kutsi Nkulunkulu akasenti siphosiso nakehlulela bantfu labenta lokubi. 3Kodvwa wena muntfu-ndzini, wenta loko nawe lowehlulela ngako labanye bantfu! Ucabanga kutsi uyawuphepha yini ekwahlulelweni kwaNkulunkulu? 4 Kumbe uyayedzelela yini ingcebo yemusa wakhe, nekubeketela kwakhe, nekumela bulukhuni kwakhe? Awati yini kutsi umusa waNkulunkulu nguwo lokuholela ekuphendvukeni? 5 Kodvwa ngebulukhuni nangenkhani yekungaphendvuki kwenhlitiyo yakho, utibekela lulaka lube lukhulu ngelilanga lelulaka. Ngalelo langa iyawukhanya indlela Nkulunkulu lehlulela ngayo kutsi imsulwa. 6 Phela Nkulunkulu uyawuvuza wonkhe umuntfu njengekwemisebenti yakhe. 7 Labanye bantfu bachubeka benta lokuhle, bafuna tibusiso, neludvumo nekuphila lokungabhubhi; labo-ke Nkulunkulu uyawubanika kuphila lokuphakadze. 8Labanye bantfu baticabanga bona, bangakwemukeli loko lokuliciniso, bese balandzela loko lokungesiko; kulabo Nkulunkulu uyawutfululela lulaka nentfukutselo yakhe. 9 Kuyawuba khona kuhlupheka nebuhlungu lobumatima kubo bonkhe bantfu labenta lokubi, kucale kumaJuda bese kulandzela betive. 10 Kepha kuyawuba khona inkhatimulo, neludvumo, nekuthula kubo bonkhe labenta lokuhle, kucale emaJuda bese-ke kulandzela betive. 11 Ngobe Nkulunkulu akakhetsi muntfu.
12Bonkhe labone bate umtsetfo bayawubhujiswa ngaphandle kwemtsetfo, nalabo labone banemtsetfo bayakwehlulelwa ngemtsetfo. 13 Ngobe akusibo labawuvako umtsetfo labalungile kuNkulunkulu, kepha ngulabo labawentako umtsetfo labayakwemukelwa nguNkulunkulu ngekutsi balungile. 14 Ngekwemvelo betive bate umtsetfo, kodvwa nabatentela loko lokufunwa ngumtsetfo, kungumtsetfo kubo, nome bate umtsetfo. 15 Batiphatsa ngendlela lekhombisa kutsi loko lokufunwa ngumtsetfo kubhalwe etinhlitiyweni tabo. Nanembeza wabo uyabafakazela kutsi loko kuliciniso, njengobe nemicabango yabo ngaletinye tikhatsi iyabalahla, nangaletinye tikhatsi iyabavumela. 16 NgekweliVangeli lami ngaKhristu Jesu kuyawuba njalo nangalelo langa Nkulunkulu layakwehlulela ngalo lokufihlekile kwebantfu.
Umtsetfo awusiti lutfo nawungagcinwa
17 Ase ufanekise ngawe. Wena uliJuda, wetsembele emtsetfweni, futsi utigabatisa ngekutsi Nkulunkulu wakho. 18Uyayati intsandvo yaNkulunkulu ngekuyifundza emtsetfweni, uyakwati nekukhetsa lokuncono. 19 Uneliciniso kutsi wena ungumkhombi wendlela kulaba labatimphumphutse, nekukhanya kulabasebumnyameni. 20Nguwe umceceshi walabangati nemfundzisi walabangakafundzi, wati kahle kutsi emtsetfweni kunelwati loluphelele ngeliciniso. 21 Pho, njengobe ufundzisa labanye, wena awutifundzisi ngani? Wena ushumayela kutsi kungebiwa, pho, wena ubelani?
22Utsi akungaphingwa, pho, wena uphingelani? Utondza tithico, kodvwa uwagcekezelani emathempeli?
23Utigabatisa ngekuba nemtsetfo waNkulunkulu, kepha umhlaziselani Nkulunkulu ngekwephula umtsetfo wakhe? 24 Kubhaliwe kutsi: “Ngenca yenu, betive bahlambalata ligama laNkulunkulu.”
25Kusoka kwakho kunalo lusito nawugcina umtsetfo, kepha nawephula umtsetfo kusoka kwakho kuyafanana nekungasoki. 26 Nangabe wetive, longakasoki, agcina imiyalo yemtsetfo, angeke yini Nkulunkulu amtsatse njengemuntfu losokile? 27Ngako-ke wena mJuda, uyawulahlwa ngumuntfu wetive, ngekutsi yena ugcina umtsetfo nome angazange asasoke enyameni, ngobe wena wephula umtsetfo nome unawo ubhalwe phansi, kantsi futsi usokile. 28 UmJuda akusiye umJuda ngalokubonakalako, nekusoka akusiko loko lokubonakala emehlweni kuphela. 29 Kodvwa umJuda weliciniso ngumuntfu longumJuda ngekhatsi, lokusho kutsi, usoke enhlitiyweni ngaMoya, hhayi ngalokubhaliwe. Umuntfu lonjalo-ke ubongeka kuNkulunkulu, hhayi kubantfu.

Ucabanga kutsi uyawuphepha yini ekwahlulelweni kwaNkulunkulu? 4 Kumbe uyayedzelela yini ingcebo yemusa wakhe, nekubeketela kwakhe, nekumela bulukhuni kwakhe? Awati yini kutsi umusa waNkulunkulu nguwo lokuholela ekuphendvukeni? 5 Kodvwa ngebulukhuni nangenkhani yekungaphendvuki kwenhlitiyo yakho, utibekela lulaka lube lukhulu ngelilanga lelulaka. Ngalelo langa iyawukhanya indlela Nkulunkulu lehlulela ngayo kutsi imsulwa. 6 Phela Nkulunkulu uyawuvuza wonkhe umuntfu njengekwemisebenti yakhe. 7 Labanye bantfu bachubeka benta lokuhle, bafuna tibusiso, neludvumo nekuphila lokungabhubhi; labo-ke Nkulunkulu uyawubanika kuphila lokuphakadze. 8Labanye bantfu baticabanga bona, bangakwemukeli loko lokuliciniso, bese balandzela loko lokungesiko; kulabo Nkulunkulu uyawutfululela lulaka nentfukutselo yakhe. 9 Kuyawuba khona kuhlupheka nebuhlungu lobumatima kubo bonkhe bantfu labenta lokubi, kucale kumaJuda bese kulandzela betive. 10 Kepha kuyawuba khona inkhatimulo, neludvumo, nekuthula kubo bonkhe labenta lokuhle, kucale emaJuda bese-ke kulandzela betive. 11 Ngobe Nkulunkulu akakhetsi muntfu.
12Bonkhe labone bate umtsetfo bayawubhujiswa ngaphandle kwemtsetfo, nalabo labone banemtsetfo bayakwehlulelwa ngemtsetfo. 13 Ngobe akusibo labawuvako umtsetfo labalungile kuNkulunkulu, kepha ngulabo labawentako umtsetfo labayakwemukelwa nguNkulunkulu ngekutsi balungile. 14 Ngekwemvelo betive bate umtsetfo, kodvwa nabatentela loko lokufunwa ngumtsetfo, kungumtsetfo kubo, nome bate umtsetfo. 15 Batiphatsa ngendlela lekhombisa kutsi loko lokufunwa ngumtsetfo kubhalwe etinhlitiyweni tabo. Nanembeza wabo uyabafakazela kutsi loko kuliciniso, njengobe nemicabango yabo ngaletinye tikhatsi iyabalahla, nangaletinye tikhatsi iyabavumela. 16 NgekweliVangeli lami ngaKhristu Jesu kuyawuba njalo nangalelo langa Nkulunkulu layakwehlulela ngalo lokufihlekile kwebantfu.
Umtsetfo awusiti lutfo nawungagcinwa
17 Ase ufanekise ngawe. Wena uliJuda, wetsembele emtsetfweni, futsi utigabatisa ngekutsi Nkulunkulu wakho. 18Uyayati intsandvo yaNkulunkulu ngekuyifundza emtsetfweni, uyakwati nekukhetsa lokuncono. 19 Uneliciniso kutsi wena ungumkhombi wendlela kulaba labatimphumphutse, nekukhanya kulabasebumnyameni. 20Nguwe umceceshi walabangati nemfundzisi walabangakafundzi, wati kahle kutsi emtsetfweni kunelwati loluphelele ngeliciniso. 21 Pho, njengobe ufundzisa labanye, wena awutifundzisi ngani? Wena ushumayela kutsi kungebiwa, pho, wena ubelani?
22Utsi akungaphingwa, pho, wena uphingelani? Utondza tithico, kodvwa uwagcekezelani emathempeli?
23Utigabatisa ngekuba nemtsetfo waNkulunkulu, kepha umhlaziselani Nkulunkulu ngekwephula umtsetfo wakhe? 24 Kubhaliwe kutsi: “Ngenca yenu, betive bahlambalata ligama laNkulunkulu.”
25Kusoka kwakho kunalo lusito nawugcina umtsetfo, kepha nawephula umtsetfo kusoka kwakho kuyafanana nekungasoki. 26 Nangabe wetive, longakasoki, agcina imiyalo yemtsetfo, angeke yini Nkulunkulu amtsatse njengemuntfu losokile? 27Ngako-ke wena mJuda, uyawulahlwa ngumuntfu wetive, ngekutsi yena ugcina umtsetfo nome angazange asasoke enyameni, ngobe wena wephula umtsetfo nome unawo ubhalwe phansi, kantsi futsi usokile. 28 UmJuda akusiye umJuda ngalokubonakalako, nekusoka akusiko loko lokubonakala emehlweni kuphela. 29 Kodvwa umJuda weliciniso ngumuntfu longumJuda ngekhatsi, lokusho kutsi, usoke enhlitiyweni ngaMoya, hhayi ngalokubhaliwe. Umuntfu lonjalo-ke ubongeka kuNkulunkulu, hhayi kubantfu.
