5 Kepha ogcina izwi lakhe, uthando lukaNkulunkulu luphelelisiwe kuye impela; ngalokho siyazi ukuthi sikuye.
6 Lowo othi uhlala kuye, yena umelwe ukuhamba njengalokho ahamba yena.
7 Bazalwane, anginilobeli umyalo omusha, kodwa umyalo omdala enaninawo kwasekuqaleni. Umyalo omdala uyizwi enalizwa kwasekuqaleni.
8 Futhi nginilobela umyalo omusha, okuliqiniso kuye nakini, ngokuba ubumnyama buyadlula, nokukhanya kweqiniso sekuyakhanya.
9 Lowo othi usekukhanyeni, kodwa ezonda umzalwane wakhe, usebumnyameni kuze kube manje.
10 Lowo othanda umzalwane wakhe uhlala ekukhanyeni, njalo kakulasikhubekiso kuye.

15 Ningathandi izwe nezinto ezisezweni. Uma umuntu ethanda izwe, uthando lukaBaba alukho kuye.
16 Ngokuba konke okusezweni, inkanuko yenyama, nenkanuko yamehlo, nokuzigabisa ngalokhukuphila, akuveli kuYise, kodwa kuvela ezweni.
17 Izwe liyadlula kanye nenkanuko yalo, kepha owenza intando kaNkulunkulu uhlala kuze kube phakade.

21 Kangilibhalelanga ngoba lingalazi iqiniso, kodwa ngoba lilazi, lokuthi kakulamanga avela eqinisweni.
22 Ngubani ongumqambimanga ngaphandle kwalowo ophika ukuthi uJesu unguKristu na? Ungumphikukristu, ophika uYise neNdodana.
23 Ophika iNdodana akanaye uYise, kepha ovuma iNdodana unaye noYise.
24 Ngakho-ke lokho enakuzwa kusukela ekuqaleni makuhlale kini. Uma lokho enakuzwa kwasekuqaleni kuhlala kini, nani niyohlala eNdodaneni nakuBaba.
25 Yilesi isithembiso asithembisa sona: ukuphila okuphakade.
26 Nginilobele lezi zinto ngabadukisayo.
27 Kepha ukugcotshwa enakwemukela kuye kuhlala kini, anidingi ukuba ubani anifundise, nihlale kuye.
28 Manje, bantwanyana, hlalani kuye; ukuze kuthi, nxa esebonakala, sibe lesibindi, singabi lenhloni phambi kwakhe ekufikeni kwakhe.
29 Uma nazi ukuthi ulungile, yazini ukuthi wonke owenza ukulunga uzelwe nguye.

9 Ngalolo suku, imizi yakhe enamandla iyakuba njengegatsha elishiyiweyo nesiqongo abasishiyile ngenxa yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli, libe yihlane.
10 Ngenxa yokuthi ukhohliwe uNkulunkulu wensindiso yakho, awuzange ucabange ngedwala lamandla akho, ngakho-ke kufanele utshale izitshalo ezinhle, uzibeke ezitshalweni ezingaziwayo.
11 Ngosuku oyohlumisa ngalo isitshalo sakho, futhi ekuseni uyokwenza imbewu yakho iqhakaze; kodwa ukuvuna kuyakuba yithemba ngosuku losizi nolokudabuka okukhulu.
12 Maye ngobuningi bezizwe ezibanga umsindo njengokuhlokoma kolwandle; nangomsindo wezizwe ezibanga umsindo njengomsindo wamanzi anamandla!
13 Izizwe ziyobhonga njengokuhlokoma kwamanzi amaningi, kodwa uNkulunkulu uyozisola, futhi ziyobalekela kude futhi zixoshwe njengamakhoba ezintabeni phambi komoya nanjengokuhenguza phambi kwesiphepho.
14 Bheka, kusihlwa igagasi liba nosizi; futhi ngaphambi kokusa akasekho. Lesi yisabelo sabasiphangayo, nesiphetho sabasiphangayo.

1 Ohlala endaweni yokucasha yoPhezukonke uyakuhlala emthunzini kaSomandla.
2 Ngizakuthi ngoJehova: Uyisiphephelo sami lenqaba yami; ngithembele kuye.
3 Impela uyakukusindisa ogibeni lomcuphi nasobhadaneni olubhubhisayo.
4 Ngezimpaphe zakhe uyakukusibekela, uthembele phansi kwamaphiko akhe; iqiniso lakhe liyisihlangu nesihlangu sakho.
5 Akumelwe wesabe ingebhe ebusuku; noma umcibisholo ondiza emini;
6 noma isifo esihamba ebumnyameni; noma incithakalo ebhubhisayo emini.
7 Bayakuwa abayizinkulungwane ngaseceleni kwakho, nezinkulungwane eziyishumi ngakwesokunene sakho; kodwa ngeke lisondele kuwe.

KumaHeberu 11 : 1 – 40
1 Kepha ukukholwa kungukuqiniseka ngezinto ezithenjwayo, kungukuqiniseka ngezinto ezingabonwayo.
2 Ngoba abadala bafakazelwa ngakho.
3 Ngokukholwa siyaqonda ukuthi izwe ladatshulwa ngezwi likaNkulunkulu, ukuze okubonwayo kakuvelanga kokubonwayo.
4 Ngokukholwa u-Abela wanikela kuNkulunkulu ngomhlatshelo omuhle kunokaKayini, afumana ngakho ubufakazi bokuthi ulungile, uNkulunkulu efakaza ngezipho zakhe;
5 Ngokukholwa u-Enoke wasuswa, ukuze angaboni ukufa; akafunyanwanga, ngokuba uNkulunkulu wayemthathile;
6 Kepha ngaphandle kokukholwa akwenzeki ukumthokozisa, ngokuba ozayo kuNkulunkulu umelwe ukukholwa ukuthi ukhona nokuthi ungumvuzi walabo abamfunayo.
7 Ngokukholwa uNowa, exwayisiwe nguNkulunkulu ngezinto ebezingakabonwa, ngokwesaba wakha umkhumbi wokusindisa indlu yakhe; ngalo walahla umhlaba, waba yindlalifa yokulunga okungokukholwa.
8 Ngokukholwa u-Abrahama walalela ebizwa ukuba aphume, aye endaweni abezakuyamukeliswa ibe yifa; waphuma engazi lapho eya khona.
9 Ngokholo wagogobala elizweni lesithembiso njengowezizwe, ehlala emathenteni kanye loIsaka loJakobe, ababeyizindlalifa kanye laye zalesosithembiso;
10 Ngokuba wayebheke umuzi onezisekelo, omakhi nomenzi wawo nguNkulunkulu.
11 Ngokukholwa naye uSara uqobo wathola amandla okukhulelwa, esedlulelwe yisikhathi, wabeletha, ngokuba wathi ukholekile owethembisileyo.
12 Ngakho-ke kwazalwa ngoyedwa, yena engofileyo, abangangezinkanyezi zezulu ngobuningi, nangangesihlabathi esisogwini lolwandle esingenakubalwa.
13 Bonke laba bafela ekukholweni, bengazamukelanga izithembiso, kodwa bazibona zikude, bakholiswa ngazo, bavuma ukuthi bangabafokazi nezihambi emhlabeni.
14 Ngokuba abasho izinto ezinjalo babonakalisa ukuthi bafuna izwe.
15 Futhi ngempela, uma babekhumbula izwe ababephuma kulo, babeyoba nethuba lokubuyela emuva.
16 Kepha manje bafuna izwe elingcono, okungukuthi elasezulwini; ngalokho uNkulunkulu akanamahloni ukubizwa ngokuthi unguNkulunkulu wabo, ngokuba ubalungisele umuzi.
17 Ngokukholwa u-Abrahama evivinywa wanikela ngo-Isaka, yena owayamukele izithembiso wanikela ngendodana yakhe ezelwe yodwa.
18 Okwathiwa ngaye: NgoIsaka inzalo yakho iyakubizwa;
19 Ethi uNkulunkulu unamandla okumvusa nakwabafileyo; lapho laye wamamukela khona ngomfanekiso.
20 Ngokukholwa u-Isaka wabusisa oJakobe no-Esawu ngezinto ezizayo.
21 Ngokukholwa uJakobe esezakufa wabusisa amadodana kaJosefa omabili; wakhuleka encika esihlokweni sodondolo lwakhe.
22 Ngokholo uJosefa esefile wakhuluma ngokuphuma kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli; walaya ngamathambo akhe.
23 Ngokukholwa uMose esezelwe wafihlwa ngabazali bakhe izinyanga ezintathu, ngokuba bambona engumntwana omuhle; futhi abawesabanga umyalo wenkosi.
24 Ngokukholwa uMose esekhulile wala ukubizwa ngokuthi indodana yendodakazi kaFaro;
25 wakhetha ukuphathwa kabi kanye nabantu bakaNkulunkulu kunokuba athokoze isikhashana esonweni;
26 wathi ukuthukwa kukaKristu kuyingcebo enkulu kunengcebo yaseGibithe, ngokuba wayebheke umvuzo.
27 Ngokukholwa washiya iGibithe, engesabi ulaka lwenkosi, ngokuba waqinisela sengathi uyambona ongabonwayo.
28 Ngokukholwa wenza iPhasika nokufafazwa kwegazi, ukuze obhubhisa amazibulo angawathinti.
29 Ngokukholwa badabula uLwandle Olubomvu kungathi kusemhlabathini owomileyo;
30 Ngokukholwa izingange zaseJeriko zawa, sezizungeziwe izinsuku eziyisikhombisa.
31 Ngokukholwa uRahabi isifebe akabhubhanga kanye nabangakholwanga, esamukele izinhloli ngokuthula.
32 Ngisezakuthini futhi? ngoba isikhathi singaphela ngilandisa ngoGidiyoni, loBharaki, loSamsoni, loJefitha; ekaDavide, noSamuweli, neyabaprofethi;
33 abathi ngokholo banqoba imibuso, benza ukulunga, bazuza izithembiso, bavala imilomo yezingonyama;
34 bacima amandla omlilo, baphunyuka obukhali benkemba, baqiniswa ebuthakathakeni, baba ngamaqhawe ekulweni, baxosha amabutho abezizwe.
35 Abesifazane bemukela abafileyo babo bevusiwe; abanye bahlushwa, kabavuma ukukhululwa; ukuze bathole ukuvuka okungcono kakhulu;
36 Abanye balingwa ngokuhlekwa ngonya nangokubhaxabulwa, yebo, nangezibopho nokuboshwa;
37 bakhandwa ngamatshe, banqunyulwa phakathi, balingwa, babulawa ngenkemba, bazulazula bembethe izikhumba zezimvu nezikhumba zezimbuzi; beswele, behlupheka, behlutshwa;
38 (umhlaba wawungabafanele) bazulazula ezingwadule, nasezintabeni, nasemihumeni, nasemihumeni yomhlaba.
39 Labo bonke laba, befakazelwe ngokholo, kabazemukelanga isithembiso;
40 UNkulunkulu esesimisele okuthile okungcono kakhulu, ukuze bona bangapheleliswa ngaphandle kwethu.

KwabaseRoma 8 : 1 – 39
1 Ngakho-ke akusekho ukulahlwa kwabakuKristu Jesu, abangahambi ngokwenyama kodwa ngokukaMoya.
2 Ngokuba umthetho kaMoya wokuphila kuKristu Jesu ungikhululile emthethweni wesono nokufa.
3 Ngoba lokho umthetho owawungekwenze, ngoba ubuthakathaka ngenyama, uNkulunkulu ethuma eyakhe iNdodana ifana lenyama elesono, njalo ngenxa yesono, walahla isono enyameni;
4 ukuze ukulunga komlayo kugcwaliseke kithi, esingahambi ngokwenyama, kodwa ngokukaMoya.
5 Ngokuba abangokwenyama banaka okwenyama; kodwa abangokoMoya izinto zikaMoya.
6 Ngokuba ukunaka kwenyama kungukufa; kepha ukunaka okomoya kungukuphila nokuthula.
7 Ngokuba ukunaka kwenyama kungubutha kuNkulunkulu, ngokuba akuwuthobeli umthetho kaNkulunkulu, futhi kungekwenzeki.
8 Ngakho abasenyameni abanakumthokozisa uNkulunkulu.
9 Kepha nina anisenyameni, kodwa nikuMoya, uma uMoya kaNkulunkulu ehlala kini. Kepha uma umuntu engenaye uMoya kaKristu, lowo kasiye owakhe.
10 Uma uKristu ekini, umzimba ufile ngenxa yesono; kodwa uMoya ungukuphila ngenxa yokulunga.
11 Kepha uma uMoya walowo owavusa uJesu kwabafileyo ehlala kini, yena owavusa uKristu kwabafileyo uyakuphilisa nemizimba yenu efayo ngoMoya wakhe ohlala kini.
12 Ngakho-ke, bazalwane, sinecala, kungeyisikho kuyo inyama, ukuze siphile ngokwenyama.
13 Ngokuba uma niphila ngokwenyama, nizakufa; kepha uma nibulala imisebenzi yomzimba ngoMoya, nizakuphila.
14 Ngokuba bonke abaholwa nguMoya kaNkulunkulu bangabantwana bakaNkulunkulu.
15 Ngokuba anamukeliswanga umoya wobugqila ukuba nibuye nesabe; kodwa namukele uMoya wobuntwana, esimemeza ngaye sithi: Aba, Baba.
16 UMoya uqobo ufakaza kanye nomoya wethu ukuthi singabantwana bakaNkulunkulu;
17 Njalo uba singabantwana, siyizindlalifa; izindlalifa zikaNkulunkulu, lezindlalifa kanye loKristu; uma kambe sihlupheka kanye naye, ukuze siphiwe inkazimulo futhi kanye naye.
18 Ngokuba ngithi izinhlupheko zalesi sikhathi azinakulinganiswa nenkazimulo ezakwambulwa kithi.
19 Ngokuba ukulangatha okudaliweyo kulindele ukuvezwa kwabantwana bakaNkulunkulu.
20 Ngoba okudaliweyo kwabekwa ngaphansi kobuze, kungeyisikho ngokuthanda, kodwa ngaye owakuthobisayo ethembeni;
21 Ngokuba nakho okudaliweyo kuyakukhululwa ebugqileni bokubhubha, kube ngukukhululeka kwenkazimulo yabantwana bakaNkulunkulu.
22 Ngokuba siyazi ukuthi konke okudaliweyo kuyabubula kanyekanye futhi kunemihelo kuze kube manje.
23 Akusikho lokho kuphela, kodwa nathi uqobo lwethu esinolibo lukaMoya, nathi ngokwethu siyabubula phakathi kwethu, silindele ukuma kwabantwana, ukukhululwa kwemizimba yethu.
24 Ngokuba sisindiswa ngethemba, kepha ithemba elibonwayo alisilo ithemba;
25 Kodwa uma sithemba lokho esingakuboniyo, siyakulindela ngokubekezela.
26 Ngokunjalo noMoya uyasisiza ebuthakathakeni bethu, ngokuba asikwazi esingakucela ngokufanele, kepha uMoya uqobo usikhulekela ngokububula okungenakuphinyiselwa.
27 Kepha yena ohlola izinhliziyo uyakwazi okuqondwa nguMoya, ngokuba ukhulumela abangcwele ngokwentando kaNkulunkulu.
28 Njalo siyazi ukuthi konke kusebenzelana kube ngokuhle kwabamthandayo uNkulunkulu, ababiziweyo ngecebo lakhe.
29 Ngokuba labo ayebazi ngaphambili wabamisa ngaphambili bafane nomfanekiso weNdodana yakhe, ukuze yona ibe yizibulo phakathi kwabazalwane abaningi.
30 Phezu kwalokho abamisele ngaphambili, labo futhi ababizile;
31 Pho siyakuthini ngalezi zinto na? Uma uNkulunkulu engakithi, ngubani ongamelana nathi na?
32 Yena ongayigodlanga eyakhe iNdodana, kepha wayinikela ngenxa yethu sonke, uyakuba kanjani ukuba angasiphi ngesihle kanye nayo na?
33 Ngubani oyakumangalela abakhethiweyo bakaNkulunkulu na? nguNkulunkulu olungisisayo.
34 Ngubani olahlayo? NguKristu owafa, yebo, kakhulu owavuswa kwabafileyo, ongakwesokunene sikaNkulunkulu, osinxuselayo.
35 Ngubani oyakusahlukanisa nothando lukaKristu na? Noma usizi, noma ukucindezeleka, noma ukuzingelwa, noma indlala, noma ukuhamba-ze, noma ingozi, noma inkemba?
36 Njengokulotshiweyo ukuthi: Ngenxa yakho sibulawa usuku lonke; sibalwa njengezimvu zokuhlatshwa.
37 Qha, kukho konke lokhu singabanqobi ngaye owasithandayo.
38 Ngoba ngileqiniso ukuthi loba ukufa, loba ukuphila, loba izingilosi, loba iziphathamandla, loba izinto ezikhona, loba izinto ezizayo;
39 nakuphakama, nakujula, nanto enye edaliweyo akuyikuba-namandla okusahlukanisa nothando lukaNkulunkulu olukuKristu Jesu iNkosi yethu.

19 Yini? Anazi yini ukuthi umzimba wenu uyithempeli likaMoya oNgcwele okinina, enimamukele kuNkulunkulu, nokuthi anisibo abenu na?
