2 Bathandekayo, manje singabantwana bakaNkulunkulu, kepha akukabonakali esiyakuba yikho; ngoba sizambona njengoba enjalo.
3 Laye wonke umuntu onalelithemba kuye, uyazihlambulula, njengalokhu yena ehlambulukile.
4 Yilowo nalowo owenza isono weqa nomthetho, ngokuba isono singukweqa umthetho.
5 Niyazi ukuthi yena wabonakaliswa, ukuze asuse izono zethu; njalo kakulasono kuye.

8 Owenza isono ungokaSathane; ngoba uSathane uyona kwasekuqaleni. Ngalokho iNdodana kaNkulunkulu yabonakaliswa, ukuze ichithe imisebenzi kaSathane.
9 Wonke ozelwe nguNkulunkulu akenzi isono; ngokuba imbewu yakhe ihlezi kuye, angoni, ngokuba uzelwe nguNkulunkulu.
10 Ngalokhu babonakaliswa abantwana bakaNkulunkulu nabantwana bakaSathane: yilowo nalowo ongenzi ukulunga akasiye okaNkulunkulu, nalowo ongamthandi umzalwane wakhe.
11 Ngoba yilo umlayezo enawuzwa kusukela ekuqaleni, ukuthi sithandane.
12 Kungabi njengoKayini owayengowomubi, wabulala umfowabo. Wambulalelani na? Ngoba imisebenzi yakhe yayimibi, kodwa eyomfowabo ilungile.
13 Ningamangali, bazalwane bami, uma izwe linizonda.
14 Siyazi ukuthi sidlulile ekufeni sangena ekuphileni, ngokuba sithanda abazalwane. Lowo ongamthandiyo umzalwane wakhe uhlezi ekufeni.

1 kaPetru 2 : 1 – 25
1 Ngakho lahlani ububi bonke, nobuqili bonke, nokuzenzisa, nomhawu, nakho konke ukuhleba;
2 Njengezingane ezisanda kuzalwa langazelelani ubisi lwezwi olungenakonakala, ukuze nikhule ngalo;
3 uma-ke ninambithile ukuthi iNkosi inomusa.
4 Okuza kuye njengetshe eliphilayo, elaliwayo ngempela ngabantu, kodwa elikhethiweyo nguNkulunkulu, eliyigugu;
5 Nani njengamatshe aphilayo nakhiwe nibe yindlu yomoya, ubupristi obungcwele, ukuze ninikele imihlatshelo yomoya eyamukelekayo kuNkulunkulu ngoJesu Kristu.
6 Ngakho-ke kukhona embhalweni ukuthi: Bheka, ngibeka eSiyoni itshe legumbi elikhethiweyo, eliyigugu; okholwa yiyo akayikujabhiswa.
7 Ngakho kini enikholwayo uligugu, kepha kwabangalaleli itshe abakhi abalalayo, yilo laba yinhloko yegumbi;
8 netshe lokukhubekisa, nedwala lokuwisa, kwabakhubekayo ngezwi ngokungalilaleli, ababemiselwe lokho futhi.
9 Kepha nina niluhlanga olukhethiweyo, ubupristi obobukhosi, isizwe esingcwele, abantu abazuziweyo; ukuze nishumayele ubukhosi balowo owanibiza niphume ebumnyameni, ningene ekukhanyeni kwakhe okumangalisayo;
10 enanikade ningesiso isizwe, kepha manje ningabantu bakaNkulunkulu, enaningahawukelwanga, kepha manje nihawukelwe.
11 Bathandekayo, ngiyanincenga njengabafokazi nezihambi ukuba nidede ezinkanukweni zenyama ezilwa nomphefumulo;
12 nibe nenkambo enhle phakathi kwabezizwe, ukuze kuthi, benihleba ngathi ningabenzi bokubi, babone imisebenzi yenu emihle abayoyibona, badumise uNkulunkulu ngosuku lokuhanjelwa.
13 Zithobeni kuzo zonke izimiso zabantu ngenxa yeNkosi: noma kusenkosini, njengophakeme;
14 noma kubabusi njengabathunywe nguye ukujezisa abenzi bokubi, batuswe abenza okuhle.
15 Ngokuba injalo intando kaNkulunkulu, ukuba ngokwenza okuhle nithulise ukungazi kwabantu abayiziwula;
16 njengabakhululekileyo, njalo lingasebenzisi inkululeko yenu njengesigubuzelo sobubi, kodwa njengezinceku zikaNkulunkulu.
17 Hloniphani abantu bonke. Thandani ubuzalwane. Mesabeni uNkulunkulu. Hlonipha inkosi.
18 Nina zinceku, thobelani amakhosi enu ngokwesaba konke; kungeyisikho kwabalungileyo labamnene kuphela, kodwa lakwabakhohlakeleyo.
19 Ngoba lokhu kuyabongeka, uba umuntu ngenxa kanembeza kuNkulunkulu ethwala usizi, ehlupheka ngokungafanele.
20 Ngokuba kuludumo luni, uma nibekezela nishaywa ngenxa yokona na? kepha uma nenza kahle nihlupheka ngenxa yalokho, nikubekezelela, lokho kuyabongeka kuNkulunkulu.
21 Ngokuba nabizelwa lokho, ngokuba uKristu wahlupheka ngenxa yethu, esishiyela isibonelo sokuba nilandele ezinyathelweni zakhe;
22 ongonanga, nenkohliso ayitholwanga emlonyeni wakhe;
23 owathi ethukwa, akaphindanga athuke; lapho ehlupheka, akasongelanga; kodwa wayezinikele kuye owahlulela ngokulunga.
24 Yena owathwala izono zethu emzimbeni wakhe emthini, ukuze thina sesifile ezonweni siphile ekulungeni, omivimbo yakhe naphulukiswa ngayo.
25 Ngokuba naninjengezimvu ezidukayo; kodwa manje selibuyele kuMalusi noMbonisi wemiphefumulo yenu.
1 kaJohane 1 : 7
7 Kepha uma sihamba ekukhanyeni, njengalokhu yena esekukhanyeni, sinenhlanganyelo omunye nomunye, negazi likaJesu Kristu iNdodana yakhe liyasihlambulula kuso sonke isono.
Kwabase-Efesu 5 : 1 – 33
1 Ngakho yibani ngabalingisa uNkulunkulu njengabantwana abathandekayo;
2 nihambe othandweni, njengalokho noKristu wasithanda, wazinikela ngenxa yethu, abe ngumnikelo nomhlatshelo kuNkulunkulu, abe yiphunga elimnandi.
3 Kepha ubufebe, nakho konke ukungcola, noma isangabe, makungaphathwa nakanye phakathi kwenu, njengokuba kufanele abangcwele;
4 namanyala, nenkulumo yobuwula, nokuntela, okuyizinto ezingafanele, kepha kunalokho ukubonga.
5 Ngokuba niyakwazi lokhu, ukuthi akukho sifebe, noma ongcolileyo, noma onesangabe ongokhonza izithombe, onefa embusweni kaKristu noNkulunkulu.
6 Makungabikho onikhohlisayo ngamazwi ayize, ngokuba ngenxa yalezo zinto ulaka lukaNkulunkulu lwehlela phezu kwabantwana bokungalaleli.
7 Ngakho-ke ningabi ngabahlanganyeli nabo.
8 Ngokuba nanikade nibubumnyama, kepha manje ningukukhanya eNkosini; hambani njengabantwana bokukhanya;
9 (Ngokuba isithelo sikaMoya sikubo bonke ubuhle nokulunga neqiniso;)
10 nihlola ukuthi kuyini okwamukelekayo eNkosini.
11 Futhi ningabi nenhlanganyelo nemisebenzi yobumnyama engatheli, kodwa kunalokho niyisole.
12 Ngoba izinto ezenziwa yibo ekusithekeni kulihlazo lokukhuluma.
13 Kodwa konke okusolwayo kubonakaliswa ngukukhanya, ngoba konke okubonakaliswayo kungukukhanya.
14 Ngakho uthi: Vuka wena oleleyo, uvuke kwabafileyo, uKristu uzakukukhanyisa.
15 Ngakho bhekisisani ukuthi nihamba kanjani, kungabi njengeziwula kodwa njengabahlakaniphileyo;
16 nithengisise isikhathi, ngokuba izinsuku zimbi.
17 Ngakho ningabi ngabangahlakaniphileyo, kodwa niqonde okuyintando yeNkosi.
18 Futhi ningadakwa yiwayini, lapho kukhona ukuganga; kodwa gcwaliswani ngoMoya;
19 nikhulumisana ngamahubo, nangezihlabelelo, nangamaculo okomoya, nihlabelele, nihubele eNkosini enhliziyweni yenu;
20 nimbonga njalo uNkulunkulu uBaba ngakho konke egameni leNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu;
21 nizithoba omunye komunye ngokwesaba uNkulunkulu.
22 Bafazi, thobelani amadoda enu kungathi kukuyo iNkosi.
23 Ngokuba indoda iyinhloko yomfazi, njengokuba noKristu eyinhloko yebandla, yena engumsindisi womzimba.
24 Ngakho-ke njengokuba ibandla lithobela uKristu, kanjalo nabafazi mabathobele amadoda abo kukho konke.
25 Madoda, thandani omkenu, njengalokho noKristu walithanda ibandla, wazinikela ngenxa yalo;
26 ukuze alingcwelise, alihlambulule ngesigezo samanzi ngezwi;
27 ukuze azimise phambi kwakhe ibandla elinenkazimulo, elingenasisihla, noma umbimbi, nanto enjalo; kodwa ukuthi libe ngcwele njalo lingelasici.
28 Kanjalo amadoda afanele ukuthanda omkawo njengemizimba yawo. Othanda umkakhe uzithanda yena.
29 Ngokuba akakho owake wazonda eyakhe inyama; kodwa uyayondla futhi ayinakekele, njengoba nje neNkosi ibandla.
30 Ngokuba singamalungu omzimba wakhe, awenyama yakhe, singamathambo akhe.
31 Ngalokho indoda iyakushiya uyise nonina, inamathele kumkayo, futhi labo ababili bayakuba nyamanye.
32 Le yimfihlakalo enkulu, kepha ngikhuluma ngoKristu nebandla.
33 Nokho-ke yilowo nalowo kini makathande umkakhe njengalokhu ezithanda yena; nomfazi makahloniphe indoda yakhe.
