8 Kuqala, ngibonga uNkulunkulu wami ngoJesu Khristu ngani nonke, ngokuba ukukholwa kwenu kukhulunywa ngakho emhlabeni wonke. 9 Ngokuba uNkulunkulu, engimkhonzayo ngenhliziyo yami yonke ngokulishumayela ivangeli leNdodana yakhe, ungufakazi wami, ukuthi nginikhumbula njalo 10 ngingaphezi emikhulekweni yami, nginxusa ukuba uma kungenzeka ngokwentando kaNkulunkulu ngiphumelele ukufika kini.

Amandla Evangeli
16 Ngokuba anginamahloni ngevangeli, ngokuba lingamandla kaNkulunkulu, kube yinsindiso kulowo nalowo okholwayo, kumJuda kuqala, nakumGriki; 17 ngokuba ukulunga kukaNkulunkulu kwambulwa kulo, kuvela ngokukholwa kuya ekukholweni, njengalokhu kulotshiwe ukuthi: “Olungileyo uzakuphila ngokukholwa.”
Intukuthelo KaNkulunkulu Ngezono Zabezizwe
18 Ngokuba intukuthelo kaNkulunkulu yambuliwe, ivela ezulwini, phezu kwakho konke ukungamesabi uNkulunkulu nokungalungi kwabantu abathiya iqiniso ngokungalungi kwabo; 19 ngokuba lokho okwazeka ngokusobala ngoNkulunkulu kwambuliwe kwaba sobala kubo, ngokuba uNkulunkulu ukwambulile kubo. 20 Ngokuba selokhu kwadabuka umhlaba, amandla akhe aphakade nobuNkulunkulu bakhe, nakuba kungabonakali, kwambuliwe kwaba sobala ezintweni ezidaliweyo; ngakho-ke abanazaba zokuzilandulela. 21 Ngokuba kuthe bemazi uNkulunkulu, kabaze bamdumisa noma bambonge njengoNkulunkulu, kodwa balutheka ekucabangeni kwabo, ingqondo yabo nenhliziyo yabo yafiphazwa. 22Bezitshela ukuthi bahlakaniphile, baba yiziwula, 23 baguqula inkazimulo kaNkulunkulu ongabhubhiyo ukuba ifane nomfanekiso womuntu obhubhayo, owezinyoni, nowezilwane ezinezinyawo ezine nezinwabuzelayo.
24 Ngakho-ke uNkulunkulu wabanikela ezinkanukweni zezinhliziyo zabo ukuba baqhubeke ekungcoleni, bathela ngehlazo imizimba yabo. 25Baguqula iqiniso likaNkulunkulu, balenza amanga, badumisa futhi bakhonza okudaliweyo kunoMdali odumisekayo kuze kube phakade. Amen.
26 Ngenxa yalokho, uNkulunkulu wabanikela ezinkanukweni eziyihlazo; ngokuba ngisho nabesifazane babo baguqula ukwenza kwemvelo, kwaba ngokuphambene nemvelo. 27 Kanjalo nabesilisa, bayeka ukwenza kwemvelo kowesifazane, basha ukukhanukelana bodwa. Abesilisa benza okuyichilo kwabesilisa, bazitholela umvuzo ofanele ukuduka kwabo.
28Njengalokhu benqaba ukukubona, kuyinto enhle ukumazi uNkulunkulu, uNkulunkulu wabayekela ekungaqondini kwabo ukwenza okungemukelekile. 29 Bagcwele konke ukungalungi; ukonakala, umhobholo nobubi; begcwele umhawu, ukubulala, ukuphikisana, inkohliso, ubuqili nokuhleba. 30Banyembenya abanye, bazonda uNkulunkulu; bayizidlova, bayazidla, bayazigabisa, bangabaqambi bokubi, nabangabalaleli abazali; 31abanangqondo, abathembekile, abanaluthando, futhi abanasihe. 32 Bathi nakuba bezazi izimiso ezilungileyo zikaNkulunkulu zokuthi abenza lezi zinto bafanele ukufa, kabagcinanga nje ngokuzenza, kodwa babuye bavuna labo abazenzayo.
