Uvumo Lokholo lweWestminster

mIsa. 63:17 Kungani usenza siduhe ezindleleni zakho, NKOSI, wenze inhliziyo yethu ibe lukhuni ekukwesabeni? Phenduka ngenxa yenceku zakho, izizwe zelifa lakho. Mark. 6:52 Ngoba babengaqedisisanga ngezinkwa; ngoba inhliziyo yabo yayilukhuni. Mark. 16:14 Emva kwalokhu, wabonakala kwabalitshumi lanye ngokwabo behlezi ekudleni+ 14 behlezi ekudleni: kumbe, ndawonye, wasesola ukungakholwa kwabo langobulukhuni benhliziyo, ngoba bengakholwanga labo abambonayo esevukile.

nHlab. 32:3 Lapho ngathula, amathambo ami aguga ngenxa yokubhonga kwami usuku lonke. 4 Ngoba emini lebusuku isandla sakho sasinzima phezu kwami; ubumanzi bami baguqulelwa ekumeni kwehlobo. Sela. Hlab. 51:8 Ngizwise intokozo lenjabulo, ukuze athabe amathambo owachobozileyo.

o2 Sam. 12:14 Loba kunjalo, ngoba wenze izitha zeNKOSI zidelele lokudelela ngalindaba, laye umntwana ozalelwe wena uzakufa lokufa.

pHlab. 89:31 Uba besephula izimiso zami, bengagcini imithetho yami, 32 ngizaphindisela iziphambeko zabo ngenduku, lezono zabo ngenswazi. 1 Kor. 11:32 Kodwa nxa sisahlulelwa, sikhuzwa yiNkosi, ukuze singalahlwa kanye lomhlaba.

a Jobe 8:13 Zinjalo indlela zabo bonke abamkhohlwayo uNkulunkulu, lethemba longamesabiyo uNkulunkulu lizabhubha. 14 Othemba lakhe lizaqunywa, lakuthembayo kuyibulembu besayobe. Mika 3:11 Inhloko zayo zahlulelela izipho, labapristi bayo bafundisela inkokhelo, labaprofethi bayo bavumisela imali; kanti beyama eNKOSIni besithi: INKOSI kayikho phakathi kwethu yini? Okubi kakuyikusehlela. Dute. 29:19 Njalo kuzakuthi nxa esizwa amazwi alesisiqalekiso, azibusise enhliziyweni yakhe esithi: Ngizakuba lokuthula lanxa ngihamba ebuqholweni benhliziyo yami; ukuze kuqedwe okumanzi kanye lokomileyo. Joha. 8:41 Lina lenza imisebenzi kayihlo. Ngakho athi kuye: Kasizalwanga ngobufebe thina; silobaba munye, uNkulunkulu.

bMat. 7:22 Abanengi bazakuthi kimi ngalolosuku: Nkosi, Nkosi, kasiprofethanga yini ngelakho ibizo, sakhupha amadimoni ngelakho ibizo, senza imisebenzi elamandla eminengi ngelakho ibizo? 23 Njalo khona ngizakutsho obala kubo ngithi: Angizanga ngilazi; sukani kimi lina benzi bobubi.

c1 Joha. 2:3 Langalokho siyakwazi ukuthi siyamazi, uba sigcina imilayo yakhe. 1 Joha. 3:14 Thina siyazi ukuthi sesidlule ekufeni saya empilweni, ngoba siyabathanda abazalwane. Ongamthandiyo umzalwane uhlezi ekufeni. 18 Bantwanyana bami, kasingathandi ngelizwi kumbe ngolimi, kodwa ngezenzo langeqiniso. 19 Futhi ngalokho siyazi ukuthi singabeqiniso, njalo sizaqinisa inhliziyo zethu phambi kwakhe. 21 Bathandekayo, uba inhliziyo zethu zingasilahli, silesibindi kuNkulunkulu. 24 Logcina imilayo yakhe, uhlala kuye, laye kuye. Ngalokhu-ke siyazi ukuthi uhlala kithi, ngoMoya asiphe wona. 1 Joha. 5:13 Lezizinto ngizibhalela lina elikholwa ebizweni leNdodana kaNkulunkulu, ukuze lazi ukuthi lilempilo elaphakade, lokuze likholwe ebizweni leNdodana kaNkulunkulu.

dRoma 5:2 Okungaye njalo silokungena ngokholo kulumusa esimi kuwo, sizincoma ethembeni lobukhosi bukaNkulunkulu. 5 Lethemba kalidanisi, ngoba uthando lukaNkulunkulu lutheliwe enhliziyweni zethu ngoMoya oNgcwele esimuphiweyo.

e Heb. 6:11 Kodwa sifisa ukuthi ilowo lalowo wenu akubonakalise lokhukukhuthala ekuqinisekeni okupheleleyo kwethemba ekupheleni. 19 Esilalo njengengwegwe yomphefumulo eqinileyo legxilileyo, lingena kokuphakathi kweveyili.

fHeb. 6:17 Okwathi uNkulunkulu kukho, ethanda ukubonisa ngokwengezelelweyo kakhulu kuzindlalifa zesithembiso ukungaphenduki kwecebo lakhe, walamula ngesifungo, 18 ukuze, ngezinto ezimbili ezingaphendukiyo, okukuzo okungelakwenzeka ukuthi uNkulunkulu aqambe amanga ngazo, sibe lenduduzo elamandla, thina esibalekele ukuphephela ukubambelela ethembeni elibekwe phambi kwethu.

g2 Pet. 1:4 Okungakho siphiwe izithembiso ezinkulu kakhulu leziligugu, ukuze ngalezi libe ngabahlanganyeli bemvelo yobuNkulunkulu, seliphephe ekuboleni okusemhlabeni ngenxa yenkanuko. 5 Njalo ngaphandle kwalokhu-ke selenze yonke inkuthalo, yengezelelani ukulunga ekholweni lwenu, lekulungeni ulwazi. 10 Ngakho, bazalwane, tshisekelani kakhulu ukuqinisa ubizo lokhetho lwenu; ngoba uba lisenza lezizinto, kalisoze likhubeke loba nini. 11 Ngoba ngokunjalo lizakwengezelelwa ngokunothileyo ukungena embusweni ophakade weNkosi yethu loMsindisi uJesu Kristu. 1 Joha. 2:3 Langalokho siyakwazi ukuthi siyamazi, uba sigcina imilayo yakhe. 1 Joha. 3:14 Thina siyazi ukuthi sesidlule ekufeni saya empilweni, ngoba siyabathanda abazalwane. Ongamthandiyo umzalwane uhlezi ekufeni. 2 Kor. 1:12 Ngoba ukuzincoma kwethu yilokhu, ubufakazi besazela sethu, ukuthi ngokungelankohliso langobuqotho bukaNkulunkulu, kungeyisikho ngenhlakanipho yenyama kodwa emuseni kaNkulunkulu, saziphatha emhlabeni, kodwa ngokukhethekileyo maqondana lani.

hRoma 8:15 Ngoba kalemukelanga umoya wobugqili ukuze libuye lesabe, kodwa lamukele umoya wokuma kwabantwana, esimemeza ngawo sisithi: Aba, Baba! 16 UMoya uqobo ufakazelana kanye lomoya wethu, ukuthi singabantwana bakaNkulunkulu.

iEfe. 1:13 eselithemba kuye lani, selizwile ilizwi leqiniso, ivangeli losindiso lwenu, kuye selikholiwe lani laphawulwa nguMoya oNgcwele wesithembiso, 14 oyisibambiso selifa lethu, ehlengweni lokuzuziweyo, kudumo lobukhosi bakhe. Efe. 4:30 Njalo lingamdabukisi uMoya oyiNgcwele kaNkulunkulu, elaphawulwa ngaye kuze kube lusuku lohlengo. 2 Kor. 1:21 Losiqinisayo kanye lani kuKristu, owasigcobayo, nguNkulunkulu, 22 owasiphawulayo lathi, wasenika isibambiso sikaMoya enhliziyweni zethu.

Isa. 50:10 Ngubani ophakathi kwenu oyesabayo iNKOSI, olalela ilizwi lenceku yayo, ohamba emnyameni, njalo ongelakukhanya? Kathembele ebizweni leNKOSI, eyame kuNkulunkulu wakhe. Mark. 9:24 Njalo wahle wamemeza uyise womntwana, ngezinyembezi wathi: Ngiyakholwa, Nkosi, siza ukungakholwa kwami. Hlab. 88:1 Ihubo, isihlabelelo. Kubantwana bakaKora. Kumhlabelelisi. NgeMahalathi-Leanothi. Imfundiso kaHemani wakoEzira. NKOSI Nkulunkulu wami, ngi yacela emini ukusizwa; ngiyakhala kuwe ebusuku. 2 Umkhuleko wami kawufinyelele phambi kwakho, uzwe ukukhala kwami. 3 Ngoba umphefumulo wami ugcwele ukuhlupheka, lempilo yami isondele engcwabeni. 4 Ngibalelwa kulabo abafayo; ngingumuntu obuthakathaka, 5 ngilahlelwe phakathi kwabafileyo, nginjengababuleweyo abalele emangcwabeni ongasabakhumbuliyo wena, ngoba besusiwe esandleni sakho. 6 Ungifakile enzikini yomgodi, ezindaweni zomnyama ezitshonayo. 7 Kuyangisinda kakhulu ukuthukuthela kwakho, lamagagasi akho wonke ayangibandezela phansi. 8 Wenze abanakwethu bangidele; wangenza ngaba yinto eyesabekayo kubo; ngivalelwa ukuthi ngingaphumi, 9 amehlo ami ayafiphala ngenxa yosizi. Ngiyakhuleka kuwe insuku zonke, NKOSI, ngizelulele izandla zami kuwe. 10 Abafileyo uyabenzela izimangaliso yini? Imimoya efileyo iyavuka yini ikudumise? 11 Uthando lwakho luyatshunyayelwa yini engcwabeni, lobuqotho bakho encithakalweni? 12 Izimangaliso zakho ziyaziwa yini emnyameni, lokulunga kwakho elizweni lokukhohlwa? 13 Kodwa mina, NKOSI, ngiyakhala kuwe, ekuseni umkhuleko wami uyafinyelela phambi kwakho. 14 NKOSI, ungilahleleni, ubufihleleni ubuso bakho kimi? 15 Ngihluphekile ngaba seduze lokuphela kusukela ebutsheni bami, ngethukile kakhulu, sengiphele amandla. 16 Ulaka lwakho ludlulile phezu kwami, okwesabekayo kwakho kungiqedile. 17 Kungizingelezile njengamanzi usuku lonke, kuyangembesa. 18 Wenze izihlobo labangane ukuthi babekhatshana lami; umnyama ungumngane wami. Hlab. 77:1 Kumhlabelelisi, uJeduthuni. Isihlabelelo sikaAsafi. Ngiyamemeza kuNkulunkulu ngelizwi lami, kuNkulunkulu ngelizwi lami, wasebeka indlebe kimi. 2 Osukwini lokuhlupheka kwami ngiyayidinga iNkosi; ebusuku ngiyelula isandla sami ngikhuleka, umphefumulo wami uyala ukududuzwa. 3 Ngiyamkhumbula uNkulunkulu, ngibubule; ngiyacabanga, lomoya wami uphele amandla. 4 Ungenzile ukuthi ngingalali; ngikhathazekile, kangisakwazi ukukhuluma. 5 Ngiyazikhumbula insuku zasendulo leminyaka yasendulo. 6 Ngiyakhumbula enhliziyweni yami ebusuku, ngiyacabanga, ngizibuze ngithi: 7 INkosi izangilahla kokuphela, kumbe izaphinda ibe lomusa yini? 8 Uthando lwayo seluphelile kokuphela yini? Lezithembiso zayo seziphelile kokuphela yini? 9 UNkulunkulu usekhohliwe ukuba lomusa yini? Usevalele isihawu sakhe ngolaka yini? 10 Ngasengisithi: Lobu yibuthakathaka bami: Isandla sokunene soPhezukonke siphendukile. 11 Ngizakhumbula izenzo zakho, NKOSI. Yebo, ngizakhumbula izimangaliso zakho ezindala. 12 Ngizacabanga ngomsebenzi wakho wonke, nginakane ngezenzo zakho.

l1 Kor. 2:12 Thina-ke kasemukelanga umoya womhlaba, kodwa uMoya ovela kuNkulunkulu, ukuze sazi izinto esiziphiwa ngesihle nguNkulunkulu. 1 Joha. 4:13 Ngalokhu siyazi ukuthi sihlala kuye, laye kithi, ngoba usinikile okukaMoya wakhe. Heb. 6:11 Kodwa sifisa ukuthi ilowo lalowo wenu akubonakalise lokhukukhuthala ekuqinisekeni okupheleleyo kwethemba ekupheleni; 12 ukuze lingabi ngabavilaphayo, kodwa abalingisi babo abathi ngokholo langokubekezela badla ilifa lezithembiso. Efe. 3:17 Ukuze uKristu ahlale ngokholo enhliziyweni zenu; ligxilile njalo lisekelwe ethandweni, 18 ukuze libe lamandla sibili okuqedisisa kanye labo bonke abangcwele, ukuthi kuyini ububanzi lobude lokutshona lokuphakama, 19 lokwazi uthando lukaKristu olwedlula ulwazi, ukuze ligcwaliswe ngokugcwala konke kukaNkulunkulu.

m2 Pet. 1:10 Ngakho, bazalwane, tshisekelani kakhulu ukuqinisa ubizo lokhetho lwenu; ngoba uba lisenza lezizinto, kalisoze likhubeke loba nini.

nRoma 5:1 Ngakho sesilungisisiwe ngokholo, silokuthula kuNkulunkulu ngeNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu, 2 okungaye njalo silokungena ngokholo kulumusa esimi kuwo, sizincoma ethembeni lobukhosi bukaNkulunkulu. 5 Lethemba kalidanisi, ngoba uthando lukaNkulunkulu lutheliwe enhliziyweni zethu ngoMoya oNgcwele esimuphiweyo. Roma 14:17 Ngoba umbuso kaNkulunkulu kawusikho ukudla lokunatha, kodwa ukulunga lokuthula lentokozo kuMoya oNgcwele. Roma 15:13 Kungathi-ke uNkulunkulu wethemba angaligcwalisa ngentokozo yonke langokuthula ekukholweni, ukuze lengezwe ethembeni, ngamandla kaMoya oNgcwele. Efe. 1:3 Ubusisiwe uNkulunkulu loYise weNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu, osibusisileyo ngaso sonke isibusiso somoya ezintweni zezulwini kuKristu; 4 njengoba wasikhetha kuye ngaphambi kokusekelwa komhlaba, ukuthi sibe ngcwele, njalo singasoleki phambi kwakhe ethandweni, Hlab. 4:6 Banengi abathi: Ngubani ozasitshengisa okuhle? NKOSI, phakamisela ukukhanya kobuso bakho phezu kwethu. 7 Ubeke intokozo enhliziyweni yami okwedlula isikhathi lapho amabele abo lewayini labo elitsha kwandile. Hlab. 119:32 Ngizagijima endleleni yemithetho yakho, ngoba uzakhulisa inhliziyo yami.

Njalo uba umuntu esona, siloMmeli kuYise, uJesu Kristu olungileyo; 2 njalo yena uyinhlawulo yokuthula yezono zethu; futhi kungeyisizo ezethu zodwa, kodwa lezomhlaba wonke. Roma 6:1 Ngakho sizakuthini? Sizahlala yini esonweni, ukuze kwande umusa? 2 Phinde! Thina esafa mayelana lesono, sizaphila njani kuso futhi? Tit. 2:11 Ngoba umusa kaNkulunkulu oletha usindiso usubonakele ebantwini bonke, 12 usifundisa ukuthi, sidele ukungakhonzi uNkulunkulu lenkanuko zomhlaba, siphile ngokuqonda langokulunga langokwesaba uNkulunkulu emhlabeni wakhathesi. 14 Owazinikelela thina, ukuze asihlenge ebubini bonke, lokuzihlambululela isizwe esikhethekileyo, esitshisekela imisebenzi emihle. 2 Kor. 7:1 Lokhu silalezizithembiso, bathandekayo, asizihlambululeni kukho konke ukungcola kwenyama lokomoya, siphelelise ubungcwele ekwesabeni uNkulunkulu. Roma 8:1 Ngakho khathesi kakusekho ukulahlwa kibo abakuKristu Jesu, abangahambi ngokwenyama, kodwa ngokoMoya. 12 Ngakho, bazalwane, silomlandu, kungeyisikho enyameni, ukuthi siphile ngokwenyama. 1 Joha. 3:2 Bathandekayo, khathesi singabantwana bakaNkulunkulu, njalo kakukabonakali esizakuba yikho. Kodwa siyazi ukuthi uba ebonakala, sizakuba njengaye, ngoba sizambona njengoba enjalo. 3 Laye wonke olalelithemba kuye, uyazihlambulula, njengoba yena ehlambulukile. Hlab. 130:4 Kodwa kuwe kulothethelelo, ukuze wesatshwe. 1 Joha. 1:6 Uba sisithi silenhlanganyelo laye, kube kanti sihamba ebunyameni, siqamba amanga, njalo kasenzi iqiniso; 7 kodwa uba sihamba ekukhanyeni, njengalokhu yena esekukhanyeni, silenhlanganyelo omunye lomunye, legazi likaJesu Kristu iNdodana yakhe liyasihlambulula kuso sonke isono.

Usevalele isihawu sakhe ngolaka yini? 10 Ngasengisithi: Lobu yibuthakathaka bami: Isandla sokunene soPhezukonke siphendukile. Mat. 26:69 UPetro wayesehlezi ngaphandle egumeni; kwasekusiza kuye incekukazi ethile encane, yathi: Lawe ubuloJesu weGalili. 70 Kodwa walandula phambi kwabo bonke, wathi: Kangikwazi lokho okutshoyo. 71 Kwathi esephuma esiya esangweni, enye incekukazi encane yambona, yathi kwababekhona: Laye lo ubeloJesu weNazaretha. 72 Wasebuya elandula ngesifungo esithi: Kangimazi lumuntu. Hlab. 31:22 Ngoba mina ngathi ekuphangiseni kwami: Ngiqunyiwe ngisuswa phambi kwamehlo akho. Loba kunjalo uzwile ilizwi lokuncenga kwami ekukhaleni kwami kuwe. Hlab. 88, bona "k".

Gen. 2:17 Kodwa okwesihlahla solwazi lokuhle lokubi, ungadli kuso, ngoba mhla usidla kuso uzakufa isibili. Roma 2:14 Ngoba nxa abezizwe abangelawo umlayo besenza ngokwemvelo okungokomlayo, bona, bengelawo umlayo, bangumlayo wabo ngokwabo; 15 ababonakalisa ukuthi umsebenzi womlayo ulotshiwe enhliziyweni zabo; isazela sabo siyafakaza laso, lemicabango yabo phakathi kwabo ibasole kumbe njalo ibavumele. Roma 10:5 Ngoba uMozisi ubhala ngokulunga okungokomlayo, ukuthi umuntu owenza lezizinto uzaphila ngazo. 12 Ngoba kakukho umehluko phakathi komJuda lomGriki; ngoba yinye iNkosi yabo bonke, inothele bonke abakhuleka kuyo. 19 Kodwa ngithi: UIsrayeli kaqedisisanga yini? Kuqala uMozisi uthi: Mina ngizalivusela umona ngabo abangesiso isizwe, ngilithukuthelise ngesizwe esingelangqondo. Gal. 3:10 Ngoba bonke abemisebenzini yomlayo bangaphansi kwesiqalekiso; ngoba kulotshiwe ukuthi: Uqalekisiwe wonke ongemi njalo kukho konke okulotshiweyo encwadini yomlayo ukukwenza. 12 Kodwa umlayo kawusiwo wokholo, kodwa kuthiwa: Umuntu owenza lezizinto uzaphila kuzo. Tshu. 7:29 Khangela, yilokhu kuphela engikutholileyo ukuthi uNkulunkulu wamenza umuntu waqonda; kodwa sebedinge amacebo amanengi. Jobe 28:28 Wasesithi emuntwini: Khangela, ukwesaba iNkosi lokhu kuyikuhlakanipha, lokusuka ebubini kuyikuqedisisa.

Jak. 2:8 Uba liphelelisa umlayo wobukhosi, ngokombhalo othi: Wothanda umakhelwane wakho njengalokhu uzithanda wena, lenza kuhle. 10 Ngoba loba ngubani ogcina umlayo wonke, kodwa akhubeke kokukodwa, uba lecala kuyo yonke. 11 Ngoba owathi: Ungafebi; wathi futhi: Ungabulali; uba-ke ungafebi, kodwa ubulala, usungumeqi womlayo. 12 Khulumani ngokunjalo lenze njalo, njengabazakwahlulelwa ngomlayo wenkululeko. Roma 13:8 Lingabi lamlandu kumuntu, ngaphandle kowokuthandana; ngoba othanda omunye, ugcwalisile umlayo. 9 Ngoba lokhu ukuthi: Ungafebi, ungabulali, ungebi, ungafakazi amanga, ungabi lomhawu, loba-ke kukhona lawuphi umlayo, kuhlanganiswa kulelilizwi, kulokhu: Wothanda umakhelwane wakho njengalokhu uzithanda wena. Dute. 5:32 Ngakho qaphelani ukuthi lenze njengokulilaya kweNKOSI uNkulunkulu wenu; lingaphambukeli ngakwesokunene langakwesokhohlo.

d Heb. 9 Ngakho isibili lesosivumelwano sakuqala sasilezimiso zenkonzo kaNkulunkulu, lendawo engcwele yemhlabeni. 2 Ngoba kwakhiwa idokodo elokuqala okwakukhona kulo uluthi lwesibane letafula lezinkwa zokubukiswa, elibizwa ngokuthi yindawo engcwele. 3 Langemva kweveyili lesibili kwakukhona idokodo elibizwa ngokuthi yingcwele yezingcwele, 4 lilesitsha segolide sokutshisela impepha, lomtshokotsho wesivumelwano obhadwe ngegolide inhlangothi zonke, okwakukhona kuwo inqayi yegolide elemana, lenduku kaAroni eyahlumayo, lezibhebhe zesivumelwano; 5 laphezu kwawo amakherubi enkazimulo engamele isihlalo somusa; esingekhulume ngalezizinto khathesi ngokukhethekileyo. 6 Sezilungisiwe lezizinto ngokunjalo, abapristi bangena njalonjalo edokodweni lokuqala bephelelisa umsebenzi wokukhonza uNkulunkulu; 7 kodwa kwelesibili kwakungena kanye ngomnyaka umpristi omkhulu yedwa, kungeyisikho ngaphandle kwegazi, azinikelela yena leziphambeko zabantu; 8 uMoya oyiNgcwele utshengisa lokhu, ukuthi indlela eya endaweni engcwele kayikembulwa, lapho lisemi idokodo lokuqala; 9 okwakungumfanekiso walesosikhathi, okwanikelwa kulo yonke iminikelo lemihlatshelo, engelakho ukuphelelisa okhonzayo maqondana lesazela, 10 kuphela kokudliwayo, lokunathwayo, lokugeza okuzinhlobonhlobo lezimiso zenyama, ezibekwe phezu kwabo kuze kufike isikhathi sokulungisiswa. 11 Kodwa uKristu esefikile, engumpristi omkhulu wezinto ezinhle ezizayo, ngedokodo elikhulu lelipheleleyo kulelinye, elingenziwanga ngezandla, okuyikuthi, elingeyisilo lalokhukudalwa, 12 futhi kungeyisikho ngegazi lezimbuzi lelamathole, kodwa ngelakhe igazi wangena kanye kuphela endaweni engcwele, esezuze ukuhlengwa okulaphakade. 13 Ngoba uba igazi lezimbuzi lelezinkunzi, lomlotha wethokazi ufafaza abangcolileyo, ungcwelisa kuze kube sekuhlambulukeni kwenyama, 14 kakhulu kangakanani igazi likaKristu, owathi ngoMoya ophakade wazinikela kuNkulunkulu engelasici, lizahlambulula isazela senu emisebenzini efileyo, ukukhonza uNkulunkulu ophilayo? 15 Langenxa yalokhu ungumlamuli wesivumelwano esitsha, ukuze, lokhu ukufa sekufikile ekuhlengeni kweziphambeko ngesikhathi sesivumelwano sokuqala, ababiziweyo bamukele isithembiso selifa laphakade. 16 Ngoba lapho okukhona incwadi yelifa, kufuneka ukuthi kubikwe ukufa komenzi wencwadi yelifa. 17 Ngoba incwadi yelifa isebenza kwabafileyo, lokhu kayikabi lamandla lapho ephila umenzi wencwadi yelifa. 18 Ngakho laso esokuqala kasimiswanga ngaphandle kwegazi. 19 Ngoba lapho usumenyezelwe umthetho wonke ngokomlayo nguMozisi ebantwini bonke, wathatha igazi lamathole lelembuzi, kanye lamanzi loboya obubomvu lehisope, wafafaza kokubili ugwalo uqobo labantu bonke, 20 esithi: Leli ligazi lesivumelwano uNkulunkulu alilaya ngaso. 21 Ngokunjalo wasefafaza ngegazi ledokodo lezitsha zonke zenkonzo. 22 Njalo phose zonke izinto zihlanjululwa ngegazi ngokomthetho, langaphandle kokuchitheka kwegazi kakubi khona uthethelelo. 23 Ngokunjalo kwakudingeka ukuthi imifanekiso yezinto zemazulwini ihlanjululwe ngalezizinto, kodwa izinto zezulwini uqobo ngemihlatshelo engcono kulale. 24 Ngoba uKristu kangenanga endaweni ezingcwele ezenziwe ngezandla, ezingumfanekiso weziqotho, kodwa ezulwini uqobo, ukuthi khathesi abonakalele thina phambi kobuso bukaNkulunkulu; 25 kungeyisikuthi futhi ukuze azinikele kanengi, njengalokhu umpristi omkhulu engena endaweni engcwele umnyaka ngomnyaka legazi lokunye; 26 uba kwakunjalo wayemele ukuhlupheka kanengi selokhu kwasekelwa umhlaba; kodwa khathesi ubonakaliswe kanye ekupheleni kwesikhathi ukuze asuse izono ngomhlatshelo wakhe uqobo. 27 Njalo njengalokhu kumiselwe abantu ukuthi bafe kanye, lemva kwalokhu ukwahlulelwa; 28 ngokunjalo uKristu, esenikelwe kanye ukuze athwale izono zabanengi, ngokwesibili uzabonakala ngaphandle kwesono kwabamlindeleyo, kube lusindiso. Heb. 10:1 Ngoba umlayo ulesithunzi sezinto ezinhle ezizayo, ungeyisiwo umfanekiso oqotho wezinto, ungeze waba lamandla ngaleyomihlatshelo enikelwa njalonjalo iminyaka ngeminyaka ukubenza baphelele labo abasondelayo. Gal. 4:1 Kodwa ngithi, ngalesosikhathi indlalifa iseyingane, kayehlukananga ngalutho esigqilini lanxa ingumnikazi wakho konke; 2 kodwa ingaphansi kwabaphathi lababonisi, kuze kufike isikhathi esamiswa nguyise. 3 Ngokunjalo lathi, lapho siseyizingane, sasiyizigqili ngaphansi kwemfundiso zakuqala zomhlaba. Kol. 2:17 Eziyisithunzi sezinto ezizayo, kodwa umzimba ngokaKristu.
