Yekucala Leya KuThimothi 6:1-21
6 Labo labatigcili kufanele banike baphatsi babo ludvumo lolukhulu,+ kuze libito laNkulunkulu kanye nemfundziso yakhe kungakhulunywa kabi.+
2 Nalabo labanebaphatsi labakholwako kufanele bangabedzeleli ngobe nje babazalwane. Kodvwa kufanele basebente ngekutimisela, ngobe labo labazuzako kulomsebenti lomuhle labawentako bangemakholwa lakanye nabo futsi latsandzekako.
Chubeka ufundzisa ngaletintfo, futsi ubayale kutsi batente.
3 Nangabe umuntfu afundzisa lenye imfundziso, angavumelani nesicondziso lesiphilile*+ lesivela eNkhosini yetfu Jesu Khristu, futsi angavumelani nemfundziso lehambisana nekwesaba Nkulunkulu,+
4 usuke agcwele umgcabho futsi kute lakucondzako.+ Uhlale acabanga* ngekuphikisana nalabanye kanye nekulwa ngemagama.+ Letintfo tiveta umona, kubanga, kunyundzela,* netinsolo letimbi,
5 tiphindze tente kutsi bantfu labanetingcondvo letonakele+ nalabete liciniso basuse imibango lengapheli ngetindzaba letilite, babe bacabanga kutsi kwesaba Nkulunkulu kuyindlela yekuzuza lokutsite.+
6 Kuliciniso kutsi kwesaba Nkulunkulu kuzuzisa kakhulu,+ nangabe nje seneliswa nguloko lesinako.
7 Ngobe asiletsanga lutfo eveni, futsi kute lesitawuhamba nako.+
8 Ngako kufanele seneliswe kuba nekudla nekwekwembatsa.*+
9 Kodvwa labo labatimisele ngekunjinga bawela esilingweni, elugibeni,+ nasetifisweni letinyenti letingenangcondvo naletilimatako, letibangela bantfu inhlekelele nekufa.+
10 Ngobe kutsandza imali kuyimphandze yato tonkhe tinhlobo tetintfo letilimatako, futsi ngenca yekutsandza imali, labanye badukile ekukholweni, batibangela* buhlungu lobunyenti.+
11 Kodvwa wena muntfu waNkulunkulu, tibalekele letintfo, ulwele kuba nekulunga, kwesaba Nkulunkulu, kukholwa, lutsandvo, kucinisela, kanye nemoya lophansi.*+
12 Lwani kulwa lokuhle kwekukholwa, ubambisise kuphila lokuphakadze lowabitelwa kona futsi wakuvuma kahle embikwabofakazi labanyenti.
13 EmbikwaNkulunkulu lonika tonkhe tintfo kuphila, nasembikwaKhristu Jesu lowetfula bufakazi lobukahle embikwaPhontiyuse Pilatu,+ ngikuyala
14 kutsi ugcine lomyalo, uhlale ungenabala futsi ungasoleki kuze kube ngulapho iNkhosi yetfu Jesu Khristu ibonakaliswa.+
15 Lokubonakaliswa kutawuvetwa nguloyo lokunguye kuphela uMbusi Lonemandla nalojabulako futsi kutawuvetwa ngesikhatsi lesifanele. UyiNkhosi yemakhosi neMbusi webabusi,+
16 nguye yedvwa longafi,+ lohlala ekukhanyeni lokute umuntfu longasondzela kuko,+ nalokute umuntfu loke wambona nome longambona.+ Kuye akube ludvumo nemandla kuze kube phakadze. Amen.
17 Yala* labo labanjingile kulelive* kutsi bangatikhukhumeti,* futsi bangabeki litsemba labo emcebeni lophelako,+ kodvwa balibeke kuNkulunkulu, losinika ngalokuphuphumako tonkhe tintfo letisijabulisako.+
18 Batjele kutsi bente lokuhle, bente imisebenti leminyenti lemihle, bephane,* bakulungele nekwabelana,+
19 futsi ngaloko batibekele sisekelo lesihle sesikhatsi lesitako,+ kuze babambisise kuphila lokungukonakona.+
20 Thimothi, kunake loko lonikwe kona,+ ubalekele tinkhulumo letilite letingakuhloniphi lokungcwele, ubalekele nekuphikisana ngaloko lokutsiwa “lwati” kube kungasilo.+
21 Ngenca yekutigabatisa ngelwati lolunjalo, labanye baphambukile ekukholweni.
Shengatsi umusa lomkhulu waNkulunkulu ungaba nani.
