Yokuthoma KaJwanisi 1:1-10
1 Lokho ebekukhona kusukela ekuthomeni, esikuzwileko, esikubone ngamehlwethu, esikuqalisisileko nezandla zethu ezikuthintileko malungana nelizwi lokuphila,+
2 (ukuphila kwenziwa kwabonakala, sikubonile begodu siyafakaza,+ siyanibikela nangokuphila okungapheliko+ ebekunoBaba nokwenziwa kwabonakala kithi),
3 lokho esikubonileko nesikuzwileko siyanibikela+ bona nani nihlanganyele nathi. Ukuhlanganyela kwethokhu kukuBaba neNdodanakhe uJesu Krestu.+
4 Sinitlolela izintwezi bona ithabo lethu lipheleliswe.
5 Lo mlayezo esawuzwa kuye begodu esinazisa wona: UZimu ukukhanya,+ abukho nakancani ubumnyama kuye.
6 Nasithi, “Sihlanganyela naye,” khisibe siragela phambili sikhamba ebumnyameni, sileya amala begodu asiphili ngeqiniso.+
7 Yeke nasikhamba ekukhanyeni njengombana asekukhanyeni, sihlanganyela nomunye nomunye begodu iingazi zakaJesu iNdodanakhe zisihlanza kizo zoke izono.+
8 Nasithi, “Asinasono,” siyazikhohlisa+ begodu iqiniso alikho kithi.
9 Nasivuma izono zethu, yena uthembekile begodu ulungile bona asilibalele izono zethu begodu asihlanze kikho koke ukungalungi.+
10 Nasithi, “Azange khesone,” simenza umleyimala nelizwi lakhe alikho kithi.
