KwabaseKorinte 1 – 7
1Ke kaloku, ngokubhekisele kwiindawo enandibhalela ngazo, ndithi, Kumlungele umntu ukuba angamchukumisi umntu oyinkazana. 2Kodwa ke, ngenxa yohenyuzo, elowo makabe nowakhe umfazi, athi elowo abe neyakhe indoda. 3Indoda mayimenzele okumfaneleyo umfazi wayo; enjenjalo ke nomfazi endodeni. 4Umfazi akanagunya kowakhe umzimba, yindoda enalo; kwangokunjalo ke, nendoda ayinagunya kowayo umzimba, ngumfazi onalo. 5Musani ukwazana, ngaphandle kokuba nivumelene okomzuzwana, ukuze nizinikele nina ziqu nizila ukutya nokuthandaza; nibuye nihlangane, ukuze anganihendi uSathana ngenxa yokungazithibi kwenu. 6Nditsho ngegunya, andiwisele umthetho. 7Kuba ndinga bonke abantu bangaba njengam nje; Kodwa elowo unesakhe isipho, asibabalwe nguThixo; 8Ndithi ke kwabangazekanga nabangendanga, nakubahlolokazi, kubalungele ukuba bathe bahlala njengam nje. 9Kodwa ke, ukuba abanakuzibamba, mabazeke, mabende, kuba kukhona kulungileyo ukuba kuzekwe, kwendiwe, kunokutshiseka. 10Ke kaloku abazekileyo nabendileyo ndiyabathethela, phofu ingendim, iyiNkosi; 11Kodwa ke ukuba uthe wahlukana nayo, makahlale angendi, okanye makaxolelaniswe nendoda yakhe; indoda mayingamali umfazi wayo. 12Ke kaloku kwabanye ndithi mna, akutsho iNkosi, Ukuba kukho mzalwana uthile unomfazi ongakholiweyo, aze umfazi lowo athande ukuhlala naye, makangamali. 13Nomfazi onendoda engelokholwa, ize yona ithande ukuhlala naye, makangahlukani nayo. 14Kuba indoda leyo ingakholiweyo ingcwalisiwe nguye umfazi, nomfazi lowo ungakholiweyo ungcwalisiwe yiyo indoda; okanye abantwana benu ngebeba baziinqambi; kungokunje bangcwele. 15Kodwa ke ukuba lowo ungakholiweyo uyahluka, makahluke; umzalwana nokuba ngudade akabotshelelwe, xa kunjalo; ke uThixo usibizele eluxolweni. 16Kuba, wazi ngani na, mfazi, ukuba woyisindisa indoda yakho? Wazi ngani na, ndoda, ukuba womsindisa umkakho? 17Ke, njengoko uThixo wamabelayo ulowo, njengoko iNkosi imbizileyo ulowo, makahambe ngokunjalo. Ndimisa ngokunjalo ke kuwo onke amabandla. 18Kukho mntu wabizwa engowalukileyo na? Makangazenzi ongalukileyo. Kukho mntu wabizwa engalukanga na? makangaluki. 19Ukwaluka oku akunto, nokungaluki oku akunto; okuyinto kukubamba imithetho kaThixo. 20Elowo makahlale elubizweni abizwe ekulo. 21Wabizwa ulikhoboka na? ungakukhathaleli oko; nokuba unokukhululeka, sebenzisa kanye oko. 22Ukuba lowo wabizwayo waba seNkosini elikhoboka, ungumkhululwa weNkosi; ngokunjalo nalowo wabizwayo engokhululekileyo, ulikhoboka likaKristu. 23Nathengwa ngexabiso; musani ukuba ngabakhonzi babantu. 24Bazalwana, elowo ekubizweni awabizwa ekuko, makahlale kuko ekuThixo. 25Ke kaloku, ngazo iintombi andinammiselo weNkosi; ndibona oku mna, njengowenzelwe inceba yiNkosi ukuba athembeke. 26Ndiba ngoko, kulungile oku ngenxa yengxakeko engeneyo, kulungile emntwini ukuthi aselehlala njengoko anjalo. 27Ubotshelelwe na emfazini? musa ukufuna ukukhululwa. Ukhululekile na emfazini? musa ukufuna umfazi. 28Kodwa ke ukuba uthe wazeka, akonanga; nentombi, ukuba ithe yatshata, ayonanga. Kodwa ke abanjalo baya kuba neengxaki enyameni; 29Nditsho ke, bazalwana, ukuthi, ixesha lifinyele, ukuze kwelisaseleyo bathi nabo banabafazi, babe njengabangenabo; 30Bathi ke abalilayo, babe njengabangalili; nabavuyayo, mababe njengabangavuyanga; nabathengayo, babe njengabangenanto; 31bathi abasebenzayo ngeli hlabathi, babe njengabangalixhamliyo; kuba ukumila kweli hlabathi kuyadlula. 32Ndithanda ukuba ningabi naxhala. Ongazekileyo uxhalela izinto zeNkosi, ukuba angathini na ukuyikholisa iNkosi; 33Ozekileyo ke uxhalela izinto zehlabathi, ukuba angathini na ukumkholisa umkakhe. 34Kukho umahluko phakathi komfazi nentombi enyulu. Ongendileyo uxhalela izinto zeNkosi, ukuze abe ngcwele ngomzimba nangomoya; owendileyo ke uxhalela izinto zehlabathi, ukuba angathini na ukuyikholisa indoda yakhe. 35Oku ke ndikuthetha ndisingisele kokunilungeleyo; ndingenzeli ukunirhintyela, koko ndiniphose ngokufanelekileyo, nikhonze iNkosi, ningenasiphako. 36Kodwa ke ukuba umntu uba uhlaza intombi yakhe, xa ithe yegqitha entlahleni yayo, emelwe kukwenjenjalo, makenze akuthandayo; akoni; makuzekwe. 37Noko ke omiyo eqinile entliziyweni, engaxakwe nto, enegunya ke lokwenza ngokuthanda kwakhe, kananjalo egqibile entliziyweni yakhe kwelokuba ayigcine intombi yakhe, uyatyapha ukwenjenjalo. 38Ngoko ke lowo wendisayo uyatyapha; kodwa ke lowo ungendisiyo nguyena ukholisayo. 39Umfazi ubotshiwe ngumthetho ngalo lonke ixesha isaphilileyo indoda yakhe; ke ukuba indoda yakhe ithe yafa, ukhululekile, angendiselwa kwayithandayo; kuphela eNkosini. 40Kodwa unoyolo ngakumbi, ukuba uthe wahlala enjengoko anjalo, ngokwam mna ukubona; ndiba ke ndinaye nam uMoya kaThixo.
