10 Bafowethu, engikufisa ngokusuka ehliziyweni nengirabhela uZimu ngakho ngebanga labo, kukuthi basindiswe.+ 2 Ngombana ngiyabafakazela ukuthi bayamtjhisakalela uZimu+ kodwana ingasi ngokuvumelana nelwazi elinembileko. 3 Ngokungazi ukulunga kwakaZimu+ kodwana bafune ukuveza kwabo,+ azange bazithobe ekulungeni kwakaZimu.+ 4 Ngombana uKrestu usiphetho somThetho+ bona nanyana ngubani okholwako abe nokulunga.+
5 UMosi watlola ngokulunga okuza ngomThetho athi: “Umuntu owenza izintwezi uzokuphila ngebanga lazo.”+ 6 Kodwana ukulunga okumphumela wokukholwa kuthi: “Ungathomi uthi ehliziywenakho,+ ‘Ngubani ozokukhuphukela ezulwini?’+ Okutjho ukuthi, ayokwehlisa uKrestu 7 namkha ‘Ngubani ozokwehlela emgodini onganamkhawulo?’+ Okutjho ukuthi, avuse uKrestu kwabafileko.” 8 Kodwana uthini umTlolo? “Ilizwi liseduze nawe, lisemlonyenakho nehliziywenakho,”+ ‘okulilizwi’ lokukholwa, esilitjhumayelako. 9 Ngombana nawuvuma tjhatjhalazi ngomlomakho ukuthi uJesu uyiKosi,+ ukholwe ngehliziywakho ukuthi uZimu wamvusa kwabafileko, uzokusindiswa. 10 Ngehliziyo umuntu uyakholwa afumane ukulunga kodwana ngomlomo umuntu uvuma tjhatjhalazi+ afumane isindiso.
11 Umtlolo uthi: “Akakho obeka ukukholwa kwakhe kuye ozokudana.”+ 12 Ngombana akunamehluko phakathi komJuda nomGirigi.+ KuneKosi yinye phezu kwabo boke, enothileko* kibo boke abayibizako. 13 Ngombana “woke umuntu obiza igama lakaJehova* uzokusindiswa.”+ 14 Nanyana kunjalo, bazombiza njani loyo abangakakholwa kuye? Bazokukholwa njani kiloyo abangakezwa ngaye? Bazokuzwa njani nakungekho otjhumayelako? 15 Bazokutjhumayela njani bangakathunywa?+ Njengombana kutloliwe ukuthi: “Qala bona zihle kangangani iinyawo zalabo abamemezela iindaba ezimnandi zezinto ezihle!”+
16 Kodwana azange bazilalele boke iindaba ezimnandi. Ngombana u-Isaya uthi: “Jehova,* ngubani okholwe into ayizwe kithi?”*+ 17 Nje-ke ukukholwa kulandela into ezwiweko.+ Bese lokho okuzwiweko kuza ngelizwi elimalungana noKrestu. 18 Kodwana ngiyabuza: Kghani babhalelwe kukuzwa? Awa, kuhlekuhle, “ubufakazi babo baphumela ephasini loke nomlayezwabo wafika emaphethelweni wephasi.”+ 19 Kodwana ngiyabuza: Kghani u-Israyeli wabhalelwa kukwazi?+ Kokuthoma uMosi uthi: “Ngizonenza nibe nomona ngabantu abangasisitjhaba; ngizonenza nisilingeke nibe nenturhu ngesitjhaba esisidlhadlha.”+ 20 Kodwana u-Isaya uba nesibindi khulu athi: “Ngafunyanwa ngilabo ebebangangifuni;+ ngaziwa ngilabo ebebangabuzi ngami.”+ 21 Kodwana ngokuphathelene no-Israyeli uthi: “Ilanga loke ngilulela izandla zami esitjhabeni esingalaleliko nesinekani.”+
