9 Sivumelwane sekucala besinemitsetfo yekwenta umsebenti longcwele futsi sinendzawo yaso lengcwele+ emhlabeni. 2 Bekwakhiwe incenye yekucala yelithende, ngekhatsi kuyo bekunelutsi lwesibane,+ nelitafula, kanye netinkhwa letinikelwe kuNkulunkulu;+ futsi ibitwa ngekutsi Yindzawo Lengcwele.+ 3 Ngemuva kwendvwangu yesibili+ bekunencenye yelithende lebitwa ngekutsi yiNgcwelengcwele.+ 4 Kuyo bekunesitja seligolide+ sekushisela imphepho kanye nelibhokisi lesivumelwane+ lebeliligolide yonkhe indzawo,+ futsi kulo bekufakwe imbita yeligolide lebeyinemana,+ kunendvuku ya-Aroni leyahluma,+ kanye netibhelekece tematje+ esivumelwane; 5 etikwalo bekunemakherubhi lakhatimulako lebekasibekele simbonyo.*+ Kepha nyalo akusiso sikhatsi sekuchaza konkhe mayelana naletintfo.
6 Nasetakhiwe ngalendlela letintfo, baphristi bebangena ngaso sonkhe sikhatsi encenyeni yekucala yelithende, kuze bente imisebenti lengcwele;+ 7 kodvwa kanye ngemnyaka umphristi lophakeme bekangena yedvwa encenyeni yesibili yelithende,+ futsi angena nengati+ lebekayinikela ngenca yakhe+ nangenca yetono bantfu+ lebebatente ngekungati. 8 Umoya longcwele ukwenta kucace kutsi indlela leya endzaweni lengcwele beyisengakembulwa ngesikhatsi kusenelithende lekucala.+ 9 Lelithende lingumfanekiso lomayelana nalesikhatsi sanyalo,+ futsi kuze kube ngunyalo kusanikelwa ngetipho nangemihlatjelo.+ Nanobe kunjalo, letintfo atikhoni kwenta nembeza walomuntfu lowenta umsebenti longcwele kutsi ube msulwa.+ 10 Timane nje timayelana nekudla, lokunatfwako kanye nekucwiliswa kwetintfo emantini.*+ Loku bekufunwa nguMtsetfo mayelana nemtimba,+ futsi kwaba khona kwaze kwaba sikhatsi lesibekiwe sekulungisa tintfo.
11 Kodvwa ngesikhatsi Khristu eta angumphristi lophakeme wetintfo letinhle lesetentekile, wadzabula ethendeni lelikhulu naleliphelele kakhulu lelingakentiwa ngetandla, lokusho kutsi lelingasilo lalapha emhlabeni. 12 Wangena endzaweni lengcwele kwaba kanye kuphela, angangeni nje nengati yetimbuti neyetinkunzana, kodvwa angena nengati yakhe,+ futsi wasitfolela kukhululwa* kwaphakadze.+ 13 Ngobe nangabe ingati yetimbuti neyetinkunzi+ kanye nemlotsa welitfokati lokufafatwa kulabo labangcolile kubangcwelisa kuze kuhlantwe inyama,+ 14 ingati yaKhristu+ lowatinikela kuNkulunkulu ete sici ngemoya waphakadze yenta lokungetulu kakhulu kwaloko! Itawuhlambulula bonembeza betfu emisebentini lefile,+ kuze sentele Nkulunkulu lophilako umsebenti longcwele.+
15 Kungako kunguye longumlamuli wesivumelwane lesisha,+ ngobe ngekufa kwakhe ukhulule bantfu ngenhlawulo+ etonweni labatente ngephansi kwesivumelwane sekucala, kuze labo lababitiwe batfole setsembiso lesilifa laphakadze.+ 16 Lapho kunesivumelwane khona, umuntfu lowente leso sivumelwane kufanele afe, 17 ngobe sivumelwane sisebenta ngemuva kwekufa, njengobe singeke sisebente nangabe umuntfu losentile asaphila. 18 Ngako ngisho nesivumelwane sekucala sasungulwa* ngengati. 19 Ngobe ngesikhatsi Mosi sekatjele bonkhe bantfu yonkhe imiyalo yeMtsetfo, watsatsa ingati yetinkunzana neyetimbuti, emanti, boya lobubovu kanye nehisophu* wafafata lencwadzi* nabo bonkhe bantfu, 20 watsi: “Lena yingati yesivumelwane Nkulunkulu laniyale kutsi nisigcine.”+ 21 Wabese ulifafata ngengati+ lithende kanye nato tonkhe titja temsebenti longcwele. 22 Ngekusho kweMtsetfo, cishe tonkhe tintfo tihlanjululwa ngengati,+ futsi nangabe ingakacitfwa ingati ayibi khona intsetselelo.+
23 Ngako bekubalulekile kutsi imifanekiso+ yetintfo tasezulwini ihlanjululwe ngalendlela,+ kodvwa tintfo tasezulwini tidzinga imihlatjelo lencono kakhulu kunalena. 24 Ngobe Khristu akangenanga endzaweni lengcwele leyentiwe ngetandla,+ lengumfanekiso waleyo lengiyo sibili,+ kodvwa wangena ezulwini lucobo,+ kuze nyalo avele embikwaNkulunkulu* ngenca yetfu.+ 25 Loko bekangakwenteli kutsi atinikele kanyenti, njengalapho umphristi lophakeme angena nengati lengasiyo yakhe endzaweni lengcwele umnyaka nemnyaka.+ 26 Kube bekunjalo, bekutawudzingeka kutsi ahlupheke kanyenti kusukela kwasekelwa live.* Kodvwa nyalo utivete kanye kuphela ekupheleni kwalelive* kuze asuse sono ngemhlatjelo wakhe.+ 27 Njengobe bantfu batawufa kanye kuphela, ngemuva kwaloko behlulelwe, 28 naKhristu wanikelwa kanye kuphela kuze etfwale tono talabanyenti;+ nasekabonakala kwesibili utawube angaketeli kutosusa sono,* futsi utawubonwa ngulabo labamfuna ngekutimisela kuze basindziswe.+
