Yesibili KubaseKhorinte 10:1-18
10 Mine Pawula nginincenga ngemoya lophansi* nangemusa waKhristu,+ nanobe ngibonakala ngedzelelekile nanginani,+ kodvwa ngibonakala nginesibindzi nangingekho nani.+
2 Ngifisa kutsi nangifika, labo labacabanga kutsi siphila ngendlela yenyama babe sebashintjile, kuze kungadzingeki kutsi ngibekhute kamatima.
3 Ngobe nanobe siphila enyameni, asilwi ngekuvumelana nayo.
4 Tikhali lesilwa ngato atisito tenyama,+ kodvwa Nkulunkulu utente taba nemandla+ ekubhidlita tintfo letimbelwe tacina.
5 Sibhidlita imicabango nato tonkhe tintfo letiphakeme letimelene nelwati ngaNkulunkulu;+ futsi sitfumba yonkhe imicabango kuze ilalele Khristu.
6 Nitawutsi nasenikhombisile kutsi senilalela mbamba, sibese siyakulungela kujezisa nobe ngubani longalaleli.+
7 Nine nibuka tintfo ngendlela letibonakala ngayo ngephandle. Nangabe umuntfu aciniseka kutsi waKhristu, akacabange nganali liciniso: Kutsi njengobe yena awaKhristu, natsi sibaKhristu.
8 Ngisho nobe ngingatigabatisa kakhulu ngeligunya iNkhosi lesinike lona lekutsi sinakhe ekukholweni, kepha singanibhidliti,+ bengingeke ngihlazeke.
9 Loku ngikusho ngobe angifuni kubonakale shengatsi bengetama kunesabisa ngetincwadzi lenginibhalela tona.
10 Labanye batsi: “Tincwadzi takhe tinesisindvo nemandla, kodvwa nakakhona uyedzeleleka kantsi nenkhulumo yakhe ayinasisindvo.”
11 Umuntfu losho loko akacabange nganaku: Kutsi loko lesikusho etincwadzini nasingekho, ngiko lesitawukwenta nasesikhona.+
12 Ngobe akwenteki kutsi sitifananise nalabo labatincomako+ nobe siticatsanise nabo. Kodvwa nabatilinganisa bona futsi baticatsanisa bona, basuke bete kucondza.+
13 Tsine ngeke sitigabatise size secele ngale kwemincele lesisikelwe yona, kodvwa sitawutigabatisa ngekhatsi kwemincele Nkulunkulu lasisikele yona,* lefika ngisho nakini.+
14 Ngesikhatsi sita kini, bekungasiko kutsi seca imincele yetfu, ngobe ngitsi lesafika kucala kini netindzaba letimnandzi letimayelana naKhristu.+
15 Asitigabatisi ngemsebenti walomunye umuntfu, lokusho kutigabatisa ngale kwemincele lesisikelwe yona, kodvwa setsemba kutsi njengobe kukholwa kwenu kuchubeka kukhula, loko lesikwentile nitakubona kukukhulu nanikucatsanisa nemincele yetfu. Ngako-ke sitawuchubeka sikhula,
16 kuze simemetele tindzaba letimnandzi emaveni langale kwenu, khona singatotigabatisa eminceleni yalomunye umuntfu, lapho tintfo setivele tentiwe khona.
17 “Kodvwa lotigabatisako, akatigabatise ngaJehova.”*+
18 Ngobe umuntfu lotincomako akusuye lowemukelekako,+ kodvwa lowemukelekako nguloyo lonconywa nguJehova.*+
