Umzekelo wompostile wokuncama okulilungelo lakhe
1Andingumpostile• na? Andingokhululekileyo na? Andimbonanga na uYesu Kristu, iNkosi yethu? Aninguwo na nina umsebenzi wam eNkosini? 2Ukuba andimpostile kwabanye, kuni nina ndinguye; kuba itywina lokuqinisa obam ubupostile linini aba baseNkosini.
3Okwam ukuziphendulela kwabandincinayo kuko oku. 4Asinagunya na lokudla nokusela? 5Asinagunya na, njengabanye abapostile, nabazalwana beNkosi, noKefas, ukuba siphelekwe ngabafazi bethu bengamakholwa? 6Síthi sedwa noBharnabhas lo na, abangenagunya lokuba bangàsebenzi? 7Ngubani na okha aphume umkhosi ngeyakhe indleko? Ngubani na otyala isidiliya, aze angadli siqhamo saso? Khona ngubani na owalúsa umhlambi, aze angawadli amasi omhlambi lowo?
8Ndizithetha ngokomntu yini na ezo zinto? Awuthethi kwaezo zinto nawo na umthetho? 9Emthethweni kaMoses kubhaliwe kwathiwa, Uze ungayibophi umlomo inkomo ibhula. Ziinkomo yini na into ayikhathaleleyo uThixo? 10Kanene akatsho ngenxa yethu na? Kakade kwabhalwa ngenxa yethu; ngokuba lowo ulimayo ufanele ukulima ethembile; lowo ubhulayo ufanele ukubhula enethemba lokuyaba loo nto athembe yona.
11Ukuba ke thina sanihlwayelela izinto ezizezoMoya, yinto enkulu na, ukuba siya kuvuna izinto zenu ezizezenyama? 12Ukuba abanye babelana ngokwenza ngeli gunya kuni, asikukhona singénjenjalo na thina ngakumbi? Asilisebenzisanga ke elo gunya; sisuka sithwale izinto zonke, ukuze singazibambezeli nganí iindaba ezilungileyo zikaKristu.
13Anazi na ukuba abo bazisebenzayo izinto ezingcwele badla okwetempile, abo bahlala behleli esibingelelweni bahlulelana nesibingelelo eso? 14Ngokunjalo neNkosi le yabamisela abazazisayo iindaba ezilungileyo, ukuba baphile ngeendaba ezilungileyo ezi. 15Ke mna andiphathanga nanye kwezo zinto. Ezi ndawo andizibhaleli ukuze kwenjiwe njalo kum; kuba bekungandilungelayo kanye ukuba ndife, kunokuba ubani alilambathise iqhayiya lam.
16Kuba xa ndithi ndizishumayele iindaba ezilungileyo, andinaqhayiya; kuba ndimelwe kukuzishumayela. Yeha ke mna, ukuba ndisuka ndingazishumayeli iindaba ezilungileyo! 17Kuba xa ndikwenzayo oko ndínokuzithandela, ndoba ndinomvuzo; ke xa ndikwenza ndingenakuzithandela, ndoba ndingophathiswe ubugosa nje. 18Uyintoni na ke ngoko umvuzo wam? Ukúkuthi, ndakuzishumayela iindaba ezilungileyo, ndizenze zingabi nandleko iindaba ezilungileyo zikaKristu, ukuba ndingalisebenzisi igunya lam ezindabeni ezilungileyo ezi.
Inzondelelo kaPawulos yokufumanela uKristu abantu
19Kuba ndikhululekile nje kubo bonke, ndizikhonzisile kubo bonke, ukuze ndibazuze abona baninzi. 20KumaYuda ndaba njengomYuda, ukuze ndiwazuze amaYuda; kwabo baphantsi komthetho ndaba njengophantsi komthetho, ukuze ndibazuze abaphantsi komthetho; 21kwabo bangenamthetho, ndaba njengongenamthetho (ndingenguye phofu ongenamthetho kuThixo, ndingosemthethweni kuKristu), ukuze ndibazuze abangenamthetho; 22kwabo bangenamandla, ndaba njengongenamandla, ukuze ndibazuze abangenamandla; kubo bonke ndesuka ndaba ziinto zonke, ukuze ngeendlela zonke ndisindise inxenye. 23Oko ke ndakwenza ngenxa yeendaba ezilungileyo, ukuze ndibe lidlelane nabo ngazo.
Umzamo ofunekayo ukuze kubekho impumelelo
24Anazi na, ukuba abo babalekayo elugqatsweni, babaleka bonke okunene, kodwa ke mnye owamkelayo umvuzo? Balekani ngokunjalo ke, ukuze nizuze. 25Bonke ke abantu abazamayo, baba ziingcathu ezintweni zonke. Bona abo ke okunene benzela ukuze bazuze isithsaba esinokonakala; kodwa thina, esingenakonakala. 26Mna ke ngoko ndenjenjalo ukubaleka, ndingangi andiqondi; ndenjenjalo ukugalela ngenqindi, ndingangi ndibetha umoya; 27ndisuka ndiwuqobe umzimba wam, ndiwuxinzelele phantsi, hleze ndithi, ndakuba ndizivakalisile iindaba ezilungileyo kwabanye, ndibe mna ndingumlahlelwa phandle.
