15 “Mina ngisitjalo samadiribe samambala, uBaba mlimi. 2 Zoke iimpande ezingatheli uyazisusa kimi, ahlwengise zoke ezithelako bona zithele iinthelo ezingeziweko.+ 3 Nina senihlwengekile ngebanga lelizwi engilikhulume kini.+ 4 Hlalani nimunye nami, nami ngizokuhlala ngimunye nani. Njengombana ipande ingekhe izithelele ngokwayo ngaphandle kokuthi ihlale esitjalweni samadiribe, ngokunjalo nani angekhe nithele ngaphandle kokuthi nihlale nimunye nami.+ 5 Mina ngisitjalo samadiribe; nina niziimpande. Nanyana ngubani ohlala amunye nami, nami ngimunye naye, uthela iinthelo ezinengi+ ngombana ngaphandle kwami angekhe nenza litho. 6 Nanyana ngubani ongahlali amunye nami, uphoselwa ngaphandle njengepande bese uyatjhwaba.

11 “Izintwezi ngizikhulume kini bona ithabo lami libe kini nethabo lenu lizaliswe.+ 12 Nakhu umyalwami, ukuthi nithandane njengombana nami nginithandile.+ 13 Akakho onethando elikhulu kunaleli bona umuntu angadela ukuphila kwakhe* ngebanga labangani bakhe.+ 14 Nibangani bami nanenza lokho enginiyala ngakho.+ 15 Angisanibizi ngokuthi niziingqila ngombana isigqila asikwazi okwenziwa yikosaso. Kodwana nginibize ngokuthi nibangani bami ngombana nginazise zoke izinto engizizwe kuBaba. 16 Akhenge ningikhethe kodwana ngimi onikhethileko, nginikhethele bona niragele phambili nokuthela iinthelo nokuthi iinthelo zenu zihlale ukwenzela bona nanyana yini eniyibawa kuBaba ngegama lami, aniphe yona.+
17 “Nginiyala ngezintwezi bona nithandane.+ 18 Nangabe iphasi liyanihloya, niyazi ukuthi langihloya nami ngaphambi kokuthi linihloye.+ 19 Ngathana beniyingcenye yephasi, iphasi belizokuthanda okungekwalo. Nje-ke ngebanga lokuthi anisiyingcenye yephasi+ kodwana nginikhethile ephasini, kungebangelo iphasi linihloya.+ 20 Khumbulani ilizwi enganitjela lona: Isigqila asisisikhulu kunekosaso. Nangabe bangihlunguphaza nani bazonihlunguphaza;+ nangabe balilalela ilizwi lami, bazolilalela nelenu. 21 Kodwana bazokwenza zoke izintwezi kini ngebanga legama lami ngombana abamazi loyo ongithumileko.+ 22 Ngathana akhenge ngize ngizokukhuluma nabo, bebangekhe babe nesono.+ Kodwana nje angekhe basiphika isono sabo.+ 23 Nanyana ngubani ongihloyako, uhloya noBaba.+ 24 Ngathana akhenge ngenze kibo imisebenzi engakhenge kheyenziwe ngomunye umuntu, bebangekhe babe nesono,+ nje bangibonile begodu bahloya mina noBaba. 25 Kodwana lokhu kwenzeke bona kuzaliseke ilizwi elitlolwe emThethwenabo nalithi: ‘Bangihloye ngaphandle kwesizathu.’+ 26 Nanginithumela umsizi ovela kuBaba, ummoya weqiniso,+ wona uzokufika uvela kuBaba begodu ufakaze ngami;+ 27 nani kufuze nifakaze+ ngami ngombana nibe nami kusukela ekuthomeni.
