Igazi liyakuba luphawu lwenu ezindlini lapho nikhona ; nanxa ngibona igazi, ngiyakudlula kini, ningehlelwa yisifo soku nibhubhisa, lapho ngibulala izwe laseGibithe.

Nganihola iminyaka engamashumi amane ehlane; izingubo zenu aziguganga kini, nesicathulo asiguganga onyaweni lwenu.

Zonke izindawo ayakunyathela kuzo amathe onyawo lwenu ngininikile zona, njengalokho ngakhuluma kuMose.

Hambani nikhale konkulunkulu enibakhethileyo ; mabanisindise ngesikhathi sosizi lwenu.

Ngiyakwenzani kuwe Efr ayimi, ngiyakwenzani kuwe Juda , na? Uthando lwenu lunjengefu lokusa nanjengamazolo amuka ekuseni.

Thukuthelani ningoni ; zindlani enhliziyweni yenu okhukhweni lwenu , nithule. Sela

Ningaluphakamiseli phezulu uphondo lwenu, ningajoqi ngentamo elukhuni.

Yisho kuyo inkos i nakuyo indlovukazi ukut hi: Hlalani phansi ngokuzithoba, ngokuba izigqoko zenu ziwile phansi , umqhele wodumo lwenu.

Lapho ngithumela kini imicibisholo emibi yendlala eyakuba ngukuchitheka kwabo, engiyakuyithuma ukunichitha, ngiyakukhulisa indlala phe zu kwenu, ngaphule uzime lwenu lwesinkwa,

Kepha wathi : Maye nakinina zazimthetho , ngokuba nithwesa abantu imithwalo ethwaleka kalukhuni ! Nina-ke uqobo lwenu aniyithinti leyo mithwalo nangowodwa weminwe yenu.

Maye kinina zazimthetho, ngokuba nisisusile isihluthulelo sokwazi ! Nina uqobo lwenu aningenanga, nabangenayo nabavimbela.

Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile ngithi kini : Niyakukhala nilile nina , kepha izwe liyakujabula; niyakuba lusizi nina, kepha usizi lwenu luyakuphendulwa lube ngukuthokoza.

Madoda akwa-Israyeli, zwanini lawa mazwi: UJesu waseNazaretha, indoda efakazelwe nguNkulunkulu phambi kwenu ngemisebenzi yamandla nangezimangaliso nangezibonakaliso uNkulunkulu azenza ngaye phakathi kwenu, njengalokhu nazi nina uqobo lwenu,

Angikusho njengomyalo, kodwa ukuze ngokukhuthala kwabanye ngivivinye ubuqotho bothando lwenu;

Ngakho manibonakalise kubo phambi kwamabandla ubufakazi bothando lwenu nokuzincoma kwethu ngani.

ngokuba ngiyalwazi uthando lwenu engizincoma ngalo ngani kwabaseMakedoniya, uma ngithi i -Akhaya lase lizilungisele kwany akenye nokuthi ukushisekela kwenu kuvusile iningi labo.

Ngalokho ngiyacela ukuba ningadangali ngezinhlupheko zami ngenxa yenu, okuludumo lwenu. UPawulu ukhulekela ibandla ukuba likhule ekwazini uthando lukaNkulunkulu

Ngikhulekela lokhu ukuba uthando lwenu luvame kakhulu njalo ekwazini nasekuqondeni konke,

okunguyena futhi wasitshela ngothando lwenu ngoMoya. UPawulu ubakhulekela kuJesu

Kepha kalokhu uThimothewu esefikile kithi evela kini , esibikela izindaba ezinhle zokukholwa nothando lwenu , nokuthi nisikhumbula kahle njalo , nokuthi nilangazelela ukusibona , njengokuba nathi silangazelela ukubona nina,

Simelwe ukumbonga njalo uNkulunkulu ngani bazalwane , njengokuba kufanele, ngokuba inkolo yenu iyanda kakhulu , nothando lwenu nonke omunye komunye luyakhula,
