4 Njengobe sinalomsebenti ngenca yemusa lesentelwa wona, asipheli emandla. 2 Kodvwa sitilahlile tintfo tebumnyama naletilihlazo, asiphili ngebucili, asilisontsi nelivi laNkulunkulu,+ kodvwa ngekwenta liciniso libonakale siba sibonelo kubo bonkhe bonembeza bebantfu embikwaNkulunkulu.+ 3 Nangabe tindzaba letimnandzi lesitimemetelako tifihlekile, tisuke tifihleke kulababhubhako, 4 lokungulabangakholwa, labo nkulunkulu walelive*+ lavale tingcondvo tabo,+ kuze kungatokhanya+ kukhanya kwetindzaba letimnandzi letikhatimulako letimayelana naKhristu, longumfanekiso waNkulunkulu.+ 5 Ngobe asishumayeli ngatsi, kodvwa sishumayela ngekutsi Jesu Khristu uyiNkhosi, nekutsi ngenca yakhe tsine sitinceku tenu. 6 Nkulunkulu nguye lowatsi: “Kukhanya akukhanye ebumnyameni,”+ futsi ngebuso baKhristu ukhanyise tinhlitiyo tetfu+ ngelwati lolukhatimulako lolumayelana naye.
7 Kodvwa sinalomcebo+ etitjeni telubumba,+ kuze emandla lamakhulu kakhulu abe aNkulunkulu, angabi etfu.+ 8 Sicindzeteleke kakhulu ngato tonkhe tindlela, kodvwa hhayi kutsi asisakwati kunyakata; sicakekile, kodvwa hhayi kutsi sesite indlela yekuphuma;*+ 9 siphatfwa kabi, kodvwa asikalahlwa;+ sijikwa phansi, kodvwa asibhubhi.+ 10 Emitimbeni yetfu sihlale sibeketelela kuphatfwa kabi lokusenta sibe sengotini yekufa njengaJesu,+ kuze kuphila kwakhe kutobonakala emitimbeni yetfu. 11 Ngobe ngenca yaJesu, tsine lesiphilako sihlala sisengotini yekufa,+ kuze kuphila kwakhe kutobonakala emitimbeni yetfu lefako. 12 Ngenca yaloko tsine siyafa, kodvwa loko kwenta kutsi nine niphile.
13 Njengobe sinemoya wekukholwa lofana naloyo lokwabhalwa ngawo nakutsiwa: “Ngakholwa, ngako ngakhuluma”;+ natsi siyakholwa ngako siyakhuluma, 14 futsi siyati kutsi Loyo lowavusa Jesu utasivusa natsi njengaye, bese usiletsa embikwaJesu sikanye nani.+ 15 Ngobe tonkhe letintfo tentelwe nine, khona umusa lomkhulu waNkulunkulu utowandza ngobe labanyenti babonga Nkulunkulu futsi umphumela waloko kuba kutsi akhatinyuliswe.+
16 Ngako-ke asipheli emandla, kodvwa ngisho nobe imitimba yetfu ihhohloka, kepha tingcondvo netinhlitiyo tetfu tivuselelwa malanga onkhe. 17 Ngobe nanobe kuhlupheka* kukwesikhashana futsi kumelula, kitsi kuveta inkhatimulo lengeke icatsaniswe nalutfo* nalehlala phakadze;+ 18 futsi emehlo etfu ahlale anake tintfo letingabonwa,+ hhayi letibonwako. Ngobe tintfo letibonwako tesikhashana, kodvwa tintfo letingabonwa tihlala phakadze.
