1UPawulu, inceku kaNkulunkulu, nomphostoli kaJesu Kristu, ngokokholo lwabakhethiweyo bakaNkulunkulu, nokulazi iqiniso elingokokumesaba uNkulunkulu;

2ethembeni lokuphila okuphakade, uNkulunkulu ongenakuqamba amanga akuthembisa kungakabikho umhlaba;

3Kodwa ngesikhathi esifaneleyo ulibonakalisile ilizwi lakhe ngentshumayelo engiphathiswe yona ngokomlayo kaNkulunkulu uMsindisi wethu;

4kuThithu, indodana yami uqobo ngokokholo esiluhlanganisile: Makube umusa, nesihawu, nokuthula okuvela kuNkulunkulu uBaba naseNkosini uJesu Kristu uMsindisi wethu.

5Ngenxa yalokhu ngakutshiya eKrethe, ukuze ulungise okusilelayo, njalo umise abadala emizini yonke, njengokukulaya kwami;

6uma ekhona ongasolekiyo, eyindoda emfazi munye, enabantwana abakholwayo abangabekwa icala lokungalaleli noma abangalaleli.

7Ngokuba umbonisi umelwe ukuba ngongasolekiyo, njengomphathi kaNkulunkulu; ongesiye othanda ubugovu, ongasheshi ukuthukuthela, ongadakwa, ongashayi, ongesiye inzuzo embi;

8Kodwa ophatha kuhle izihambi, othanda okuhle, ozithibileyo, olungileyo, ongcwele, ozithibileyo;

9ebambelele ezwini elithembekileyo njengalokho efundisiwe, ukuze abe-namandla okuyala ngesifundiso esiphilileyo, nokuqinisekisa abaphikayo.

10Ngokuba baningi abangalaleliyo nabakhuluma okuyize nabakhohlisi, ikakhulukazi abokusoka;

11abamelwe ukuvalwa umlomo, abachitha izindlu ziphela, befundisa okungafanele ngenxa yenzuzo embi.

12Omunye wabo, umprofethi wakubo, wathi: AmaKrethe ahlala eqamba amanga, izilwane ezimbi, izisu ezimnene.

13Lobu bufakazi buqinisile. Ngakho-ke ubakhuze kabukhali, ukuze baphile ekukholweni;

14bangalaleli izinganekwane zamaJuda, nemiyalo yabantu abafulathela iqiniso.

15Kwabahlanzekile konke kuhlanzekile, kodwa kwabangcolileyo nabangakholwayo akukho okuhlanzekileyo; kodwa ngisho ingqondo nonembeza wabo kungcolile.

16Bavuma ukuthi bayamazi uNkulunkulu; kodwa bayamphika ngemisebenzi, benengekayo, nabangalaleliyo, nakuyo yonke imisebenzi emihle bengaboshiwe.
