11 ¹Yibani ngabaxelisi bam, njengoko nam ndimxelisayo uKrestu.

²Ke ngoku ndiyanincoma ngokundikhumbula ezintweni zonke, nangokuwabamba amasiko njengoko ndawanikela kuni. ³Ke ngoku ndithanda ukuba nazi: intloko yayo yonke indoda nguKrestu, intloko yomfazi yindoda, kanti intloko kaKrestu nguBawo wethu. ⁴Yonke indoda ethandaza okanye eprofeta igqunywe intloko iyayidelela intloko yayo. ⁵Kodwa wonke umfazi othandaza okanye oprofetayo engagqunywanga intloko uyayidelela intloko yakhe—kuyafana nokuba uchetyiwe. ⁶Ukuba umfazi uyala ukugquma intloko yakhe, iinwele zakhe mazichetywe; kodwa ekubeni kulihlazo kumfazi ukuchetywa iinwele okanye ukuchetywa intloko, makayigqume intloko yakhe. ⁷Indoda mayingagqumi intloko yayo, ekubeni ingumfanekiso nozuko lukaBawo wethu; umfazi uluzuko lwendoda. ⁸Kuba indoda ayivelanga emfazini, kodwa umfazi evela endodeni. ⁹Kananjalo indoda ayidalelwanga umfazi, kodwa umfazi wadalelwa indoda. ¹⁰Ngoko umfazi ufanele ukuba nomqondiso wegunya entlokweni yakhe, ngenxa yezithunywa zezulu.

¹¹Noko ke, eNkosini umfazi akazimelanga ngaphandle kwendoda, nendoda ayizimelanga ngaphandle komfazi. ¹²Kuba njengokuba umfazi evela endodeni, ngokunjalo nendoda iza ngomfazi; zonke izinto zivela kuBawo wethu. ¹³Zigwebeleni ngokwenu: kufanelekile na ukuba umfazi athandaze kuBawo wethu, intloko ingagqunywanga? ¹⁴Ayinifundisi na nemvelo ngokwayo ukuba iinwele ezinde kwindoda zilihlazo kuyo, ¹⁵kodwa ukuba umfazi uneenwele ezinde, luzuko lwakhe oko, ngokuba iinwele zakhe uzinikwe zibe sisigubungelo? ¹⁶Ukuba kukho othanda ukuphikisana ngale nto, thina asinasiko linjalo, namabandla kaBawo wethu akanalo.

Isithebe seNkosi Sihlazisiwe

¹⁷Ekuwiseleni lo myalelo, andinincomi, ngokuba nihlangana kungekokuba kube ngcono, kube kubi. ¹⁸Kuba okokuqala, xa nihlangana njengebandla, ndiyeva ukuba kukho iyantlukwano phakathi kwenu, ndaye ngokuyinxenye ndiyakukholwa. ¹⁹Kuba iyantlukwano kufuneka ikho nokubakho phakathi kwenu, ukuze abanyanisekileyo phakathi kwenu babonakale. ²⁰Ngoko ke, xa nihlangana ndawonye, asisiSidlo seNkosi enisidlayo. ²¹Kuba xa nisidla, elowo uphuthuma nesakhe isidlo—omnye alambe, omnye anxile. ²²Aninazo na izindlu zokudlela nokuselela? Okanye niyalidelela na ibandla likaBawo wethu, nibahlazise abo bangenanto? Ndothini na kuni? Ndinincome na? Andinincomi ngale nto.

²³Kuba mna ndakwamkela eNkosini oko nam ndakunikela kuni: iNkosi uYesu, ngobo busuku yangcatshwa ngabo, yathabatha isonka,

²⁴yakuba ibulele, yasiqhekeza yathi: “Ngumzimba wam lo, onganani; yenzani oku nindikhumbule.” ²⁵Kwangokunjalo, emva kwesidlo, yayithabatha nendebe, isithi: “Le ndebe ingumnqophiso omtsha osegazini lam. Yenzani oku, ngamaxesha onke eniyiselayo, nindikhumbule.”

²⁶Ngamaxesha onke enisidla ngawo esi sonka, nisela le ndebe, niyakubhengeza ukufa kweNkosi ide ifike.

²⁷Ngoko lowo usidlayo isonka okanye oselayo indebe yeNkosi ngokungafanelekanga, unetyala lomzimba negazi leNkosi. ²⁸Umntu makazihlole yena, aze adle isonka, asele indebe. ²⁹Kuba osukuba edla esela engawahluli umzimba, uzidlela azisela umgwebo. ³⁰Kungenxa yoko abaninzi phakathi kwenu bebuthathaka, begula, nabanye besele belele. ³¹Kodwa ukuba besizigweba ngokufanelekileyo thina, besingayi kugwetywa. ³²Xa iNkosi isigweba, iyasiqeqesha, ukuze singagwetywa kunye nehlabathi. ³³Ngoko ke, bazalwana bam, xa nihlangana ukuze nidle, lindelanani. ³⁴Ukuba kukho olambileyo, makadle ekhaya, ukuze ukuhlangana kwenu kungalethi mgwebo. Okunye ndokulungisa xa ndifika.
