1UPowula umpostoli wakaKrestu Jesu ngokwentando kaZimu ngokuya ngeenthembiso zepilo kuKrestu Jesu, 2kuThimothi, indodanami ethandekako.
Akube mumusa, isirhawu nokuthula kwakaZimu uBaba noKrestu Jesu iKosethu.
Ukuqina isibindi nokungabi neenhloni
3Ngiyamthokoza uZimu engimlotjha ngesazelo esimsulwa njengombana abokhokho bami gade basenza. Ngikukhumbula njalo emithandazwenami emini nebusuku. 4Ngokukhumbula iinyembezi zakho, ngilangazelela ukukubona khona ihliziywami izakuzala ithabo. 5Godu ngikhunjuzwa ukukholwa kwakho kweqiniso, iye, ukukholwa okwathoma kwaba kugogwakho uLowisi nonyoko uYunike, engineqiniso bona kuhlezi kuwe. 6Ngalokho ngiyakukhumbuza bona uvuselele isiphiwo sakaZimu esikuwe ngokubekwa izandla zami 7ngombana uZimu akhange asiphe ummoya wobutjhatjha, kodwana wamandla, wethando nowokuzikhalima.
8Nje-ke ungabi neenhloni ngokufakaza ngeKosi nangami mina sibotjhwa sayo, kodwana hlanganyela nami ebuhlungwini ngebanga levangeli, uzeyame ngamandla kaZimu, 9owasisindisa bewasibiza ngebizo elicwengileko, kungasi ngemisebenzi yethu kodwana ukuya ngokwehloso nomusa wakhe. Umusa lo sanikelwa wona ngoKrestu zingakabi ukuba khona iinkhathi, 10kodwana kwanjesi sewambulelwe ngokufika koMsindisi wethu uKrestu Jesu, owaqeda ukufa waletha ukuphila nokungabhubhi ekukhanyeni ngevangeli.
11Ngebanga levangeli ngakhethwa bona ngibe mtjhumayeli, mpostoli nomfundisi; 12kungalokho ngisebunzimeni obungaka. Nokho-ke anginanhloni ngombana ngiyamazi loyo engikholwa kuye, begodu ngiyethemba bona unamandla wokulonda lokho okubekwe kimi bekube mhlokho. 13Bambelela esifundweni esiphilileko owasizwa kimi ngokukholwa nangethando elikuKrestu Jesu. 14Okuhle okubekwe kuwe, kulonde ngoMoya oCwengileko ohlala kithi.
15Uyazi bona boke abase-Asiya sebangihlanukele, ngitjho aboFigelo no-Erimogenesi. 16Kwanga iKosi ingaba nomusa endlini ka-Onesiforu ngombana bephele angivusela begodu angananhloni ngami njengombana bengibotjhiwe. 17Iye, lokha nakaseRoma wangibhudula bewangifunyana. 18Kwanga iKosi ingenza kobana azuze umusa weKosi mhlokho! Begodu nawe wazi kuhle bona kungangani alotjha ngakho e-Efesu.
