3 Bathandekako, le yincwadi yesibili enginitlolela yona, kiyo njengakeyokuthoma, nginisiza bona nicabange ngendlela efaneleko ngokunikhumbuza+ 2 bona nikhumbule amezwi akhulunywa ngaphambilini* baphorofidi abacwengileko nomyalo weKosi noMsindisi ngabapostoli benu. 3 Kokuthoma yazini lokhu, ukuthi emihleni yokuphela kuzokufika abanyefuli nokunyefula kwabo, barage ngokweenkanuko zabo+ 4 bathi: “Kuphi ukuba khona kwakhe okuthenjisiwekokho?+ Ngombana kusukela ngelanga abokhokho bethu abalala ngalo ekufeni, zoke izinto ziraga patsi ngendlela ebezingayo kusukela ekuthomeni kwendalo.”+
5 Akhenge balinake ngabomu iqinisweli, ukuthi kade bekunezulu nephasi elajama laqina phezu kwamanzi naphakathi kwamanzi ngelizwi lakaZimu+ 6 nokuthi ngawo iphasi langesikhatheso latjhatjalaliswa lokha nalirhurhulwa mamanzi.+ 7 Kodwana ngelizwi elifanako izulu nephasi elikhona nje kubekelwe umlilo begodu kubekiwe bekube lilanga lesahlulelo nokutjhatjalaliswa kwabantu abangamsabiko uZimu.+
8 Nje-ke bathandekako, ningavumi iqinisweli liniphunyurhe ukuthi ilanga linye kuJehova* linjengeminyaka eyikulungwana, neminyaka eyikulungwana injengelanga linye.+ 9 UJehova* akariyadi malungana nesithembiso sakhe+ njengombana abanye bacabanga bona uyariyada kodwana uyanibekezelela ngombana angafisi ukuthi namunye atjhabalale kodwana ufisa bona boke batjhuguluke.+ 10 Ilanga lakaJehova*+ lizokuza njengesela,+ lapho izulu lizokudlula+ ngokuduma okukhulu njengombana izakhi zizabe zitjhisa khulu zizokuncibilika begodu iphasi nemisebenzi ekilo lizokwambulwa.+
11 Njengombana zoke izintwezi zizokuncibilika, cabangani ukuthi kufuze nibe babantu abanjani ezenzweni ezicwengileko zokuziphatha nezenzweni zokuzinikela kuZimu 12 njengombana nilindile begodu nihlala nikhumbula ukuba khona kwelanga lakaJehova,*+ ngalo izulu lizokutjhatjalaliswa+ ngomlilo nezakhi zincibilike emtjhisweni omkhulu! 13 Kodwana kunezulu elitjha nephasi elitjha esililindele ngokwesithembiso sakhe+ begodu lapho kuzokuhlala ukulunga.+
14 Nje-ke bathandekako njengombana nilindele izintwezi, yenzani koke okusemandlenenu bona ekugcineni anifumane nimsulwa, ninganabala begodu nisekuthuleni.+ 15 Ngaphezu kwalokho, qalani ukubekezela kweKosethu njengesindiso njengombana nomfowethu othandekako uPowula anitlolela ngokuvumelana nokuhlakanipha anikelwa khona,+ 16 akhuluma ngezintwezi njengombana enza kizo zoke iincwadi zakhe. Kodwana ezinye izinto eziseencwadinezi kubudisi ukuzizwisisa, lezo abantu abanganalwazi* nabangakadzimeleli abazihlanakelako njengombana benza nakiyo yoke imiTlolo, kube kutjhabalala kwabo.
17 Nje-ke nina bathandekako njengombana nifumene ilwazeli kusesengaphambili, tjhejani bona ningadurhiswa nabo ngemitjhapho yabantu abanganamthetho begodu niwe ekudzimeleleni kwenu.+ 18 Kodwana ragelani phambili nikhula emuseni omkhulu nelwazini leKosethu noMsindisi uJesu Krestu. Ayibe kuye iphazimulo kokubili nje nangokungapheliko. Amen.
