Eyokuqala KwabaseKhorinte 5:1-13
5 Kubikwa ukuthi phakathi kwenu kulabantu abafebayo.*+ Ukuziphatha okubi* okunjalo akukho ngitsho lasebantwini bezinye izizwe,* ukuthi indoda ithathe umkayise.+
2 Liyazigqaja ngakho yini? Kanti akumelanga lizwe ubuhlungu+ yini ukuze umuntu okwenzileyo lokho asuswe phakathi kwenu?+
3 Lanxa ngingekho khonangapho, umoya wami ulani njalo umuntu okwenzileyo lokho kudala ngimahlulele angathi ngilani khonangapho.
4 Nxa libuthene ndawonye ngebizo leNkosi yethu uJesu futhi lisazi ukuthi ngilani engqondweni* lokuthi amandla eNkosi yethu uJesu alani,
5 umuntu lowo kumele limnikele kuSathane,+ inyama ibhubhe ukuze umoya usindiswe ngosuku lweNkosi.+
6 Akukuhle ukuthi lizikhukhumeze. Alikwazi yini ukuthi imvubelo encane* iyayibilisa* yonke inhlama?+
7 Susani imvubelo endala* ukuze libe yinhlama entsha ngoba liyinhlama engabiliswanga. Phela uKhristu, imvana yethu yePhasika+ usebe ngumhlatshelo.+
8 Ngakho umkhosi lo asiwugcineni+ ngesinkwa esingelamvubelo* sobuqotho leqiniso hatshi ngemvubelo endala kumbe ngemvubelo yobubi lokuxhwala.
9 Encwadini engalibhalela yona ngilitshela ukuthi liyekele ukuba lobudlelwano* labantu abafebayo,*
10 ayisikho ukuthi ngangisitsho ukuthi lehlukane ngokupheleleyo labantu bomhlaba lo abafebayo*+ kumbe abayizihwaba kumbe abayizigebenga loba abakhonza izithombe. Phela lokho bekuzakutsho ukuthi lisuke emhlabeni.+
11 Kodwa khathesi ngilibhalela ngilitshela ukuthi liyekele ukuba lobudlelwano*+ lomuntu obizwa ngokuthi ngumzalwane yena efeba,* kumbe eyisihwaba+ loba ekhonza izithombe kumbe ethethisa abanye* loba eyisidakwa+ kumbe eliqili,+ lingaqali ukudla lomuntu onjalo.
12 Kambe mina ngahlulela abantu bangaphandle yini? Kanti lina kalahluleli abaphakathi yini,
13 uNkulunkulu yena esahlulela abangaphandle?+ “Susani umuntu owenza okubi phakathi kwenu.”+
