12  Ngako ngiyanincenga bazalwane ngemusa waNkulunkulu, kutsi ninikele imitimba yenu+ ibe ngumhlatjelo lophilako, longcwele+ nalowemukelekako kuNkulunkulu. Nanenta njalo nitawube nikhonta Nkulunkulu ngayo yonkhe ingcondvo yenu.+  Yekelani kufana nebantfu balelive,* kodvwa gucukani ngekutsi nishintje tingcondvo tenu,+ kuze nititfolele nine+ loko lokuyintsandvo yaNkulunkulu, nikwati lokuhle, lokwemukelekako nalokuphelele.  Ngenca yemusa lomkhulu Nkulunkulu langentele wona, nginitjela nonkhe kutsi akubebete emkhatsini wenu lotibona amkhulu kunaloko langiko, kodvwa nguloyo naloyo akaticabange+ ngendlela lefanele, loku akwente ngekuvumelana nekukholwa lakunikwe* nguNkulunkulu.+  Njengobe emtimbeni munye kunemalunga lamanyenti,+ lamalunga akenti umsebenti munye,  ngako natsi nanobe sibanyenti, singumtimba munye ebunyeni naKhristu, futsi singemalunga letsembele kulelinye nalelinye.+  Ngenca yemusa lomkhulu waNkulunkulu, sonkhe sinetipho letingafani.+ Nangabe sipho setfu kukuphrofetha, asiphrofethe ngekuvumelana nekukholwa lesinikwe kona;  nangabe sipho setfu sikwenta umsebenti, asichubeke siwenta; lofundzisako akachubeke afundzisa;+  lokhutsatako* akachubeke akhutsata;*+ lowabako* akabe ngenhlitiyo levulekile;+ lowengamele* akengamele ngekutimisela;*+ naloyo lonemusa akawukhombise ngenjabulo.+  Lutsandvo lwenu alube bete kutentisa.+ Tondzani lokubi;+ nibambisise lokuhle. 10  Nonkhe tsandzanani ngelutsandvo lwebuzalwane. Nihambe embili*+ ekuhloniphaneni. 11  Khutsalani,* ningavilaphi.*+ Vutsani emoyeni.+ Sebentelani Jehova.*+ 12  Jabulani ngenca yelitsemba leninalo. Ciniselani nanihlushwa.+ Phikelelani emthantazweni.+ 13  Phanini labangcwele kuye ngetidzingo tabo.+ Kwenteni umkhuba kwemukela tivakashi.+ 14  Chubekani nibusisa labo labanihluphako;+ busisani, ningacalekisi.+ 15  Jabulani nalabajabulako, nikhale nalabakhalako. 16  Nibotsatsa labanye ngendlela nani lenititsatsa ngayo; ningatigabatisi,* kodvwa tfobekani.+ Ningatiboni ngatsi nihlakaniphile.+ 17  Ningaphindziseli lokubi ngalokubi kulabanye.+ Yetamani kwenta lokuhle kubo* bonkhe bantfu. 18  Nakungenteka, yentani konkhe lokusemandleni enu kuze nibe nekuthula nabo bonkhe bantfu.+ 19  Bazalwane labatsandzekako, ningatiphindziseleli, kodvwa shiyelani konkhe elulakeni+ lwaNkulunkulu, ngobe kubhaliwe kwatsiwa: “Jehova* utsi: ‘Kuphindzisela kwami, ngimi lengitawuphindzisela.’”+ 20  Kodvwa “nangabe sitsa sakho silambile, siphe kudla; nangabe somile, sinike kwekunatsa; ngobe nawenta njalo kutawufana nekutsi ubutsisa emalahle lavutsako enhloko yaso.”*+ 21  Ungavumi kuncotjwa ngulokubi, kodvwa chubeka uncoba lokubi ngalokuhle.+
