1Phuthumani uthando olo, nibe kodwa nizizondelela izipho ezizezoMoya, ngokukodwa ke ukuba niprofete. 2Kaloku lowo uthetha ngalulwimi lumbi akathethi bantwini, uthetha kuThixo, kuba akukho namnye umvayo; kanti ke ngomoya uthetha iimfihlelo. 3Ke yena oprofetayo uthetha ebantwini ulwakheko, noyalo, nokhuzo. 4Lowo uthetha ngalulwimi lumbi uzakha yena; ke yena oprofetayo wakha ibandla. 5Ndiyathanda ke ukuba nithethe ngalwimi zimbi nonke, noko ke ndithanda ngokukodwa ukuba niprofete. Kuba yena oprofetayo mkhulu kunalowo uthetha ngalwimi zimbi, xa lo angayicacisiyo intetho, ukuze ibandla libe nokwakheka. 6Kunjalo ke, bazalwana, ukuba ndithe ndeza kuni, ndithetha ngalwimi zimbi, bendiya kuninceda ntoni na, xa ndingathanga ndithethe kuni ndinesityhilelo, ndinokwazi, ndinesiprofeto, ndinemfundiso? 7Khona kwizinto ezihlokomayo ezingenamphefumlo, ezinjengembande, nohadi, ukuba azithanga zahlule ukuhlokoma kwazo, bekungathiwani na ukwaziwa oko kubethwayo ngembande, noko kubethwayo ngohadi? 8Kuba kanjalo, xa ixilongo lithe lalila ngezwi elingaqondakaliyo, ngubani na owoyixhobela imfazwe? 9Ngokukwanjalo nani, ukuba anithanga nithethe ngalo ulwimi intetho eqondeka kakuhle, yothiwani na ukwaziwa into enithetha yona? kuba nothethela esibhakabhakeni. 10Nokuba zingaba sezingakanani na ukuba zininzi kwazo iintlobo zeentetho ehlabathini, akukho nalunye kuzo olungenanto luthetha yona. 11Ukuba ngoko andithanga ndiyazi intsingiselo yentetho, ndoba ngumbharbhari kothethayo, nothethayo woba ngumbharbhari kum. 12Ngokukwanjalo nani, ekubeni kaloku nizondelela izipho ezizezoMoya, zifuneleni ukuba nibe nazo ngokugqithiseleyo, ukuze lakheke ibandla. 13Ngenxa yoko ndithi, othethayo ngalwimi zimbi, makathandazele ukuba icace intetho yakhe. 14Kuba xa ndithandaza ngalulwimi lumbi, umoya wam uyathandaza okunene wona, ke yona ingqiqo yam ayinasiqhamo. 15Kuthini na ke ngoko? Ndiya kuthandaza ngomoya, ndithandaze nangengqiqo; ndiya kuvuma ngomoya, ndivume nangengqiqo. 16Okanye, ukuba uthe wasikelela ngomoya wodwa, wothini na lowo uhleliyo endaweni yongenakwazi ukuthi, Amen, ekubuleleni kwakho, ekubeni kaloku into oyithethayo engayazi? 17Kuba okunene wena uyatyapha ukubulela, kodwa onguwumbi akakheki. 18Ndiyabulela kuThixo wam, kuba ndithetha ngalwimi zimbi ngaphezu kwenu nonke; 19Kodwa ke ebandleni ndithanda ukuthetha amazwi abe mahlanu ngayo ingqiqo yam, ukuze ndibafundise nabanye, kunokuba ndithethe amazwi angamawaka alishumi, ngalulwimi lumbi. 20Bazalwana, musani ukuba ngabantwana engqondweni, ebubini yibani ziintsana, engqondweni ke yibani ngabantu abakhulu. 21Emthethweni kubhaliwe kwathiwa, Ndiya kuthetha kwaba bantu ngalwimi zimbi nangamlomo wumbi; noko kunjalo, abayi kundiva, itsho iNkosi. 22Ngoko ke iilwimi ezi zikho ukuba zibe ngumqondiso kwabo bangakholwayo, kungekubo abakholwayo: ke sona isiprofeto asisesabangakholwayo, sesabakholwayo. 23Xa lithe lahlangana ndawonye ibandla liphela, bathetha bonke ngalwimi zimbi, kwaza kwangena abangenakwazi, nokuba ngabangakholwayo, abasayi kuthi na, niyageza? 24Ke ukuba bathi bonke baprofete, kuze ke kungene umntu ongakholwayo, nokuba ngongenakwazi, uyohlwaywa ngabo bonke, adane; 25zize ngokunjalo izinto ezifihlakeleyo zentliziyo yakhe zibonakalaliswe; wothi ngokunjalo, esiwa ngobuso, amnqule uThixo, exela ukuba uThixo uphakathi kwenu okwenyaniso. 26Kuthini na ke ngoko, bazalwana? Xa sukuba nihlangene, uthi elowo kuni abe nengoma, abe nemfundiso, abe nalulwimi lumbi, abe nesityhilelo, abe nokuchaza intetho. Zonke izinto mazenziwe ukuze zakheke. 27Kaloku ukuba umntu uthetha ngalulwimi lumbi, makuthethe babini, mhlawumbi bathathu, bangegqithi, kube ngokulandelelana, aze omnye atolike. 28Ke xa kungekho mchazi-ntetho, makathi cwaka ebandleni; makathethe kuye ngokwakhe nakuThixo. 29Abaprofeti ke, makuthethe babini, mhlawumbi bathathu, abanye bacalule. 30Ukuba ke kuthe watyhilelwa into omnye ehleli khona, owokuqala makathi cwaka. 31Kuba ninako ukuprofeta ngabanye nonke, ukuze bafunde bonke, bavuselelwe bonke. 32Kwaye oomoya babaprofeti bayabathobela abaprofeti. 33Kuba uThixo akangowesiphithiphithi, ngowoxolo; njengokuba kunjalo kuwo onke amabandla abangcwele. 34Abafazi benu mabathi tu emabandleni; kuba abavunyelwa bona ukuba bathethe. Basuka bathobele, njengokuba usitsho nomthetho. 35Ukuba ke banga bangaqonda into, mabayibuze ekhaya kwawabo amadoda; kuba lihlazo kubafazi ukuthetha ebandleni. 36Yintoni na? Kanene ilizwi likaThixo laphuma livela kuni na? Ngaba lize kuni nedwa? 37Ukuba umntu uba ungumprofeti, nokuba uba ungowoMoya, makazazi kakuhle izinto endinibhalela zona, ukuba yimithetho yeNkosi. 38Ke ukuba umntu akazi, makangazi. 39Kungoko ndithi, bazalwana, kuzondeleleni ukuprofeta, ningakwaleli ukuthetha ngalwimi zimbi. 40Zonke izinto mazenziwe ngokubekekileyo, nangolungelelwano.
