2. | Masithi sonke ngabanye simkholise ummelwane kokumlungeleyo, ukuze akheke. |
3. | Kuba naye uKristu akazikholisanga; wathi, njengokuba kubhaliwe, Iingcikivo zabakungcikivayo zawa phezu kwam. |
4. | Kuba izinto zonke ezabhalwayo ngenxa engaphambili, zaye zibhalelwa okwethu ukufundiswa, ukuze sithi ngalo unyamezelo novuselelo lwezibhalo sibe nalo ithemba. |
5. | Wanga ke uThixo wonyamezelo novuselelo anganinika ukucinga nto-nye phakathi kwenu, ngokukaKristu Yesu; |
6. | ukuze nithi, nimxhelo mnye, engamlomo mnye uThixo, uYise weNkosi yethu uYesu Kristu. |
7. | Kungoko ndithi, Yamkelanani, njengokuba naye uKristu wasamkelayo, ukuba kuzukiswe uThixo. |

9. | zithi ke iintlanga zimzukise uThixo ngenxa yenceba yakhe, njengokuba kubhaliwe kwathiwa, Ngenxa yoko, ndiya kukudumisa phakathi kweentlanga, Ndilibethele uhadi igama lakho. |
10. | Kananjalo athi, Yibani nemihlali, zintlanga, ndawonye nabantu bakhe. |
11. | Kananjalo, Yidumiseni iNkosi, nonke nina zintlanga, Niyibonge, nonke nina bantu. |
12. | Kananjalo uIsaya uthi, Liya kubakho iHlumelo likaYese; Uya kuvela oya kulawula iintlanga; Ziya kuthembela kuye iintlanga. |
13. | Wanga ke uThixo wethemba elo anganizalisa ngalo lonke uvuyo noxolo ekukholweni, ukuze niphuphume ithemba ngamandla oMoya oyiNgcwele. |
14. | Ke kaloku, bazalwana bam, ndeyisekile nam ngokwam, mayelana nani, kukuba nani ngokwenu nizele nazaliswa kukulunga, nizele kuko konke ukwazi, ninako nokululekana. |
15. | Kodwa ke ndibhalile kuni ngobuganga obukhulu kwezinye iindawo, bazalwana, ngokophindayo ukunikhumbuza ngenxa yobabalo awandibabala ngalo uThixo, |
16. | ukuze ndibe ngobusela iintlanga kuYesu Kristu, osebenza ububingeleli ngazo iindaba ezilungileyo zikaThixo, ukuze ukusondezwa kweentlanga kwamkeleke kakuhle, kungcwalisiwe ngoMoya oyiNgcwele. |
17. | Ngoko ndiyazingca, ndikuKristu Yesu, ngezinto ezilunge kuThixo. |
18. | Kuba mna andiyi kuba nabuganga bakuthetha nto ngezinto angazisebenzanga uKristu ngam, ukuze zimlulamele iintlanga, ngelizwi ke nangomsebenzi, ngamandla emiqondiso nezimanga, |
19. | ngamandla oMoya kaThixo; endide ndathi, ndithabathela eYerusalem, ndajikelezisa, ndezisa kwelaseIliriko, ndazizalisa iindaba ezilungileyo zikaKristu. |
20. | Ndenjenjalo ke ukuzondelela ukushumayela iindaba ezilungileyo; kungekhona apho uKristu wakhankanywayo, ukuze ndingakhi phezu kwesiseko somnye; |
21. | kube njengokuba kubhaliwe, kwathiwa, Abo bangabikelwanga nto ngaye, baya kubona; Nabo bangevanga nto, baya kuqonda. |
22. | Kungoko ndabanjezelwayo nokubanjezelwa futhi, ukuba ndingafiki kuni. |
23. | Ngoku ke ndingasenandawo nje kule mimandla, ndineminyaka ke emininzi ndilangazelela ukuza kuni, |
24. | xa ndihambela kwelaseSpani, ndoza kuni; kuba ndithemba ukunibona xa ndicandayo kuni, nokuphelekelelwa nini ukuya khona, ukuba ndithe kuqala ndakha ndadlelana nani ngokwaneleyo. |
25. | Kalokunje ke ndisinga eYerusalem, ndisiya kulungiselela abangcwele. |
26. | Kuba kwakholeka kwabelaseMakedoni nabelaseAkaya, ukuba badlelane namahlwempu abo bangcwele baseYerusalem ngokuwupha okuthile. |
27. | Ndithi kwakholeka kubo, kuba kakade banetyala kubo. Kuba iintlanga, xa zadlelanayo nabo ngezinto zabo ezizezomoya, zifanele ukubabusela ngezizezenyama. |
28. | Ngoko, ndakuba ndikufinyezile oko, ndasinqabisela kubo eso siqhamo, ndobuya ngani ukuya kwelaseSpani. |
29. | Ndiyazi ke ukuba ndothi, ndakuza kuni, ndize ndinentsikelelo ezalisekileyo yeendaba ezilungileyo zikaKristu. |
30. | Ke kaloku ndiyanivuselela, bazalwana, ngayo iNkosi yethu uYesu Kristu, nangalo uthando loMoya, ukuba nizame kunye nam ekundithandazeleni kuye uThixo, |
31. | ukuze ndihlangulwe kwabaziingqola kwelakwaYuda, nokuze ulungiselelo lwam olusinga eYerusalem lube nokwamkeleka kakuhle kubo abangcwele, |
32. | ukuze ndize kuni ndinovuyo, ngokuthanda kukaThixo, siphumzane. |
33. | UThixo ke woxolo makabe nani nonke. Amen. |
