Musani ukugweba omnye komnye
14 Lowo ke uswele amandla elukholweni, mamkeleni, kodwa kungabi ngokucalula zicamango. 2 Omnye umntu ukholelwa ukuba unako yitya nantoni na, ngelixa umntu obuthathakautya imifuno kuphela.3 Makangamvumeli lowo uyenzayouyatyaOzila ukudla makamdelele, nalowo ungadliyo makangamgwebiodlayo,ngokuba uThixo umamkele. 4 Ungubani na wena ugweba isicaka somnye? Kuphambi kwenkosi yakhe[a] ukuba umile okanye uyawa. Uya kuxhonywa, ngokuba iNkosi inako ukummisa.
5Omnye okunene ubeka umhla othile kunomnye, wumbi ke ubeka imihla yonke. Elowo ke makaqiniseke kweyakhe ingqiqo. 6 Lowo uwugcinayo umhla, uwugcinela iNkosi;Lowo utyayo, udla uzuko lukaYehova,ekubeni ebulela kuThixo, athi ke lowo ungadliyo, uphambukele eNkosini, ebulela kuThixo. 7 Fnokuba akukho namnye kuthi uzidlelayo ubomi, akukho namnye uzifelayo. 8 Kuba nokuba sithi sidle ubomi, sibudlela iNkosi; nokuba sithi sife, sifela iNkosi. Ngoko ke, nokuba sithi sidle ubomi, nokuba sithi sife, singabeNkosi. 9 Kuba uKristu wafa, wabuya wadla ubomi, ngenxa yoku, ukuze aphathe ubukhosi kwabafileyo, kwanakwabaphilileyo.
10 Yini na ukuba ugwebe umzalwana wakho? Hi wena, yini na ukuba umenze into engeyakonto umzalwana wakho? Kuba siya kuma sonke phambi kwesihlalo sokugweba sikaThixo; 11 kuba kubhaliwe kwathiwa,
Ndihleli nje, utsho uYehova, aya kugoba kum onke amadolo;
kwaye zonke iilwimi ziya kuvuma[b] kuThixo.”
12 Ngoko ke elowo kuthi uya kuziphendulela kuThixo.
Musa Ukusikhubekisa Omnye
13 Ngoko ke masingabi sagwebana, kodwa sigqibe kwelokuba singakhe simbeke umkhubekiso okanye umqobo endleleni yomzalwana. 14 Ndiyazi, ndeyisekile, ndiseNkosini uYesu nje, ukuba akukho nto iyinqambi ngokwayo; 15 Ukuba ke umzalwana wakho wenziwa buhlungu ngenxa yento oyidlayo, akusahambi ngokothando. Musani ukumtshabalalisa ngento oyidlayo, yena lowo uKristu wamfelayo. 16 Ngoko ke, enisukuba nithetha okulungileyo, makunganyeliswa. 17 Kuba ubukumkani bukaThixo abukukudla nakusela; bubulungisa noxolo novuyo kuMoya oyiNgcwele. 18 Lowo umkhonza ngolo hlobo uKristu, ukholekile kakuhle kuye uThixo; 19 Ngoko ke masiphuthume oko kusingisa eluxolweni nokwakhana.
20 Musa ukuthi, ngenxa yokutya, uwuchithe umsebenzi kaThixo. Yonke into ihlambulukile, kodwa yinto embi ukuba ubani akhubekise omnye ngento ayidlayo. 21 Kuhle ukuba ungatyi nyama okanye ungaseli wayini okanye ungenzi nantoni na emkhubekisayo umzalwana wakho.c] 22 Ukholo onalo lugcine phakathi kwakho noThixo. Unoyolo lowo ungenasizathu sakuzigweba ngokomyalelo wakhe. 23 Ke lowo uthandabuzayo, ukuba uthe wadla, uselegwetyiwe, kuba engadli ngokwaselukholweni. Kuba konke okungaphumi elukholweni kusisono.d]
