2Sihlala sibulela kuye uThixo ngenxa yenu nonke; sinikhumbula emithandazweni yethu;

3singayeki ukuwukhumbula umsebenzi wenu wokholo, nokubulaleka kwenu kothando, nokunyamezela kwenu kokuthemba iNkosi yethu uYesu Kristu, phambi koThixo uBawo wethu;

4sikwazi, bazalwana bathandiweyo nguThixo, ukunyulwa kwenu.

5Ngokuba iindaba ezilungileyo zethu azibangakho kuni ngantetho yodwa; zabakho nangamandla, nangoMoya oyiNgcwele, nangenkoloseko enkulu, njengoko naziyo ukuba saba ngabanjani na phakathi kwenu ngenxa yenu.

6Nani naba ngabaxelisa thina nayo iNkosi, nalamkelayo nje ilizwi nisembandezelweni eninzi, ninovuyo loMoya oyiNgcwele;

7nada naba yimifuziselo kubo bonke abakholwayo, abakwelaseMakedoni nelaseAkaya.

8Kuba lahlokoma livela kuni ilizwi leNkosi, akwaba khona kwelaseMakedoni nelaseAkaya lodwa; kusuke ezindaweni zonke ukukholwa kwenu kuThixo kwaduma, ngokokude kungabi safuneka ukuba sithethe nto.

9Kuba bona ngokwabo baxela ngathi, ukuba kwakunjani na ukungena kwethu kuni, nokokuba nathini na ukuguqukela kuThixo, niphuma kuzo izithixo, ukuze nikhonze uThixo ophilileyo oyinyaniso,
