Ukuziphatha okuhle
1Bakhumbuze bona bathobele ababusi neemphathimandla, babe ngabalalelako bebazimisele emisebenzini yoke emihle, 2bangakhulumi kumbi nanyana kubani; bangabi zizilwi kodwana babe ngabathobekileko, bakhombise ukuba nommoya ophasi komunye nomunye. 3Nathi ngokwethu khesaba ziindlhayela, saba mahlongandlebe, sadukiswa, saba makhoboka wemihlobohlobo yeenkanuko nokuzithokozisa. Saphila ebumbini nemoneni, sahloywa nathi sahloya abanye. 4Kodwana lokha ukulunga nethando lakaZimu uMsindisethu nalibonakaliswako, 5wasisindisa, ingasi ngebanga lemisebenzi yokulunga esiyenzileko, kodwana ngebanga lomusa wakhe, ngokuhlanjwa kokuzalwa butjha nokuvuselelwa ngoMoya oCwengileko, 6othelwe phezu kwethu ngobunengi ngoJesu Krestu uMsindisi wethu 7ukuze kuthi sesilungisisiwe ngomusa wakhe, sibe ziindlalifa ngokwethemba lokuphila okungapheliko.
8Liqinisile ilizwi leli. Ngithanda bona ugandelele ezintweni lezi khona kuzakuthi labo abakholwa kuZimu bayelele ukuzinikela ekwenzeni imisebenzi emihle. Izinto lezo zihle begodu zilisizo kibo boke. 9Kodwana gegeda iimpikiswano zobudlhayela, imilando yokubelethana kanye nokusolana ngomthetho ngombana lokho akusizi begodu kulilize. 10Umuntu obanga ukuhlukana emva kobana sele elulekwe kanye namkha kabili umale 11ngombana uyazi bona onjalo uphambukile, wonakele sele azigwebe yena.
