Ukulingisela Ukuthobeka KukaKhristu
1 Nxa kukhona okukhuthazayo ngokuhlangana loKhristu, nxa kulenduduzo evela ethandweni lwakhe, nxa kulobudlelwano loMoya, nxa kulozwelo lesihawu, 2 phelelisani intokozo yami ngokuba ngqondo nye, lilothando lunye, limunye emoyeni njalo linjongo yinye. 3 Lingenzi lutho ngokuzikhukhumeza loba ukuziphakamisa okuyize. Kodwa ngokuthobeka khangelani abanye njengabangcono kulani 4 lingazikhathaleli izifiso zenu lodwa kodwa likhathalele lezifiso zabanye.
5 Ekuphilisaneni kwenu, isimo sengqondo yenu kumele sifanane lesikaKhristu uJesu,
6 Yena okwathi ngemvelo enguNkulunkulu,
kacabanganga ukulingana loNkulunkulu
kuyilutho olungafinyelelwa,
7 kodwa wazithoba,
wathatha isimo senceku,
yena elesimo somuntu.
8 Wathi ebunjwe wabonakala njengomuntu,
wazehlisa
walalela kwaze kwaba sekufeni,
ukufa kwasesiphambanweni!
9 Ngakho-ke, uNkulunkulu wamphakamisela endaweni ephezulu kakhulu,
wamnika ibizo elingaphezu kwamabizo wonke,
10 ukuba amadolo wonke aguqe ebizweni likaJesu,
ezulwini lasemhlabeni kanye langaphansi komhlaba,
11 lezindimi zonke zivume ukuthi uJesu Khristu uyiNkosi,
kube ludumo lukaNkulunkulu uYise.
