1Kusiza ngani ukuba mJuda namkha kuqakatheke ngani ukusoka na?

2Kusiza khulu ngazo zoke iindlela. Kokuthoma amaJuda aphathiswe umlayezo kaZimu.

3Alo, kwenzakalani nakube abanye azange bathembeke na? Ukungakholwa kwabo kuzakwenza bona ukwethembeka kwakaZimu kube lilize na?

4Nakanye! Nanyana woke umuntu amleyimala, uZimu yena uneqiniso njengombana kutloliwe kwathiwa: “Ukuze uhlanjululwe emezwinakho, uhlule ekugwebeni kwakho.”

5Kodwana nangabe ukungalungi kwethu kubonakalisa ukulunga kwakaZimu, sizokuthini na? Sithi uZimu akakalungi nasihlunguphaza ngetukuthelo na? (Ngikhuluma ngendlela yabantu).

6Nakanye! Nabegade kunjalo, uZimu ubezaligweba njani iphasi na?

7Kodwana nakube ngamangami iqiniso lakaZimu landisa iphazimulwakhe, ngisabekelwani-ke umlandu wokuba sisoni na?

8Kungebanga lani-ke singathi: “Asenzeni okumbi ukuze kuvele okuhle” na? Iye, sitjho njalo njengombana abantu abathileko nabasithukako bathi sitjho njalo. Abantwabo, ukulahlwa kwabo kubafanele.

9Alo-ke sizakuthini na? Sizakuthi singcono kunabanye na? Awa, nakanye, ngombana sele sibamangalele boke labo ngokuthi bangaphasi kwamandla wesono, okutjho umJuda nomGirigi,

10njengombana kutloliwe kwathiwa: “Akakho olungileko, ngitjho noyedwa tere.

11Akakho noyedwa olemukako, akakho noyedwa ofuna uZimu.

12Boke baphambukile, baphenduke baba msuqwa ndawonye. Akakho okhombisa isisa, akakho ngitjho noyedwa tere.

13Imiphimbo yabo imaliba avulekileko; basebenzisa amalimabo ukukhohlisa. Isihlungu seenyoka singaphasi kweembhena zabo.

14Imilomo yabo izele ukwethukana nobumunyu.

15Iinyawo zabo zimsinyana ekuthululeni iingazi.

16Icucu nesizi kusendlelenabo,

17indlela yokuthula abayazi.

18Ukwesaba uZimu akukho emehlwenabo.”

19Gadesi sele sisazi bona nanyana yini etjhiwo mthetho, imalungana nalabo abangaphasi komthetho ukuze yoke imilomo ithuliswe, nephasi loke libe nokuziphendulela kuZimu.

20Akunamuntu ozakulungisiswa phambi kwakhe ngemisebenzi etjhiwo mthetho ngombana emthethweni kuvela ilwazi lesono.

21Kodwana kwanjesi, ngaphandle komthetho, ukulunga kwakaZimu sele kwembuliwe, begodu kufakazelwa mthetho nabaphorofidi,

22ukulunga kwakaZimu ngokukholwa kuJesu Krestu kibo boke abakholwako. Nje-ke akunamehluko,

23ngombana boke bonile, batlhayelelwa yiphazimulo kaZimu.

24Kodwana kwanjesi sele balungisiswa ngomusakhe njengesipho ngokuhlengwa okukuKrestu Jesu,

25uZimu anikela ngaye njengomhlabelo wesono ngeengazi zakhe, ngokukholwa. Wakwenza lokho ukubonisa ukulunga kwakhe ngombana ngokubekezela kwakhe kobuZimu, azange abale izono ezenziwe phambilini.

26Lokho bekukubonisa kilesikhathi bonyana yena ngokwakhe ulungile begodu ulungisisa loyo okholwa kuJesu.

27Alo-ke kuphi ukuzigqaja na? Akubalwa nokubalwa. Ngamuphi umthetho na? Ngomthetho wemisebenzi? Awa, kodwana ngomthetho wokukholwa.

28Thina esiyiphetheko ngethi umuntu ulungisiswa ngokukholwa ngaphandle kwemisebenzi etjhiwo mthetho.

29Kghani uZimu lo nguZimu wamaJuda kwaphela na? Akasuye nowabatjhili na? Iye, nabatjhili unguZimabo,

30ngombana uZimu munye; begodu uzokulungisisa abasokileko ngeenzathu zokukholwa nabangakasoki ngakho ukukholwa lokho.

31Alo-ke, ingabe siyawulahla umthetho ngebanga lokukholwa lokhu na? Nakanye! Kodwana esikhundleni salokho siyawuhlonipha umthetho.
