KwabaseKorinte 2 KwabaseKorinte 2 – 5 - Contemporary Xhosa Bible 2024

1Siyazi ke ukuba xa ithe yachithwa indlu yethu esemhlabeni, engulo mnquba, sinesakhiwo esiphuma kuThixo, yona emazulwini, yona engenakwenziwa ngazandla, engunaphakade.

2Kuba kulo siyancwina, silangazelela ukwambatha, saleke indlu yethu yasemazulwini;

3ukuba siya kufunyanwa sambethe okunene, singeze.

4Kuba kwathina aba bakulo mnquba siyancwina sisindwa, kungengakuba sithanda ukuhlutywa;

5Ke kaloku lo usisebenzele kwaloo nto nguThixo, osinike nokusinika isinyaniso sakhe uMoya.

6Ngoko ke sihlala somelele, sisazi ukuba, sikowethu nje emzimbeni, sikude kowethu eNkosini.

7(Kuba sihamba ngokholo, asihambi ngokubona;)

8Singaxhalaba, ndithi ke, síthanda kanye ukuba kude nenyama yethu, siye kuhlala neNkosi.

9Kungoko sizondelela ukuthi, nokuba sisekhaya, nokuba sikude nekhaya, sibe ngabakholekileyo kuyo.

10Kuba sonke simele sibonakale phambi kwesihlalo sokugweba sikaKristu; ukuze elowo azuziswe okwenziwe ngomzimba, ngoko akwenzileyo, nokuba kokulungileyo, nokuba kokubi.

11Sikwazi njalo ke ukoyikeka kweNkosi, sizamela ukuba beyiseke abantu; sibonakalalisiwe ke kuThixo; ndiyathemba ke ukuba nakuzo izazela zenu sibonakalalisiwe.

12Kuba asibuyi siziyaleze kuni;

13Kuba, nokuba siyageza, kungenxa kaThixo; nokuba sinengqondo ephilileyo, kungenxa yenu.

14Kaloku uthando lukaKristu lusifingile nje; Kuba sigqiba kwelithi, omnye ufele bonke emnye, ngoko bafile bonke abo;

15wabafela ke bonke, ukuze abo badla ubomi bangabi sazidlela ubomi, babudlele owafayo wavuka ngenxa yabo.

16Ngoko ke thina sisusela kweli xesha, asisazi namnye ngokwenyama; nokuba ke besimazi uKristu ngokwenyama, kungoku asisamazi ngokwenyama.

17Ngoko ke, ukuba ubani ukuKristu, usisidalwa esitsha; izinto ezindala zidlule; yabonani, zisuke zaba ntsha izinto zonke.

18Zonke izinto ke ziphuma kuThixo, owasixolelanisa naye ngokwakhe ngoYesu Kristu, wasinika ulungiselelo loxolelaniso;

19Oko ke, uThixo waye ekuKristu, elixolelanisa naye ngokwakhe ihlabathi, engazibaleli kubo iziphoso zabo; yaye uphathise kuthi ilizwi loxolelaniso.

20Sizizigidimi ke ngoko ngenxa kaKristu, ngokungathi uThixo uniyala ngathi; siyanikhunga ngenxa kaKristu, manixolelaniswe naye uThixo;

21kuba lowo ungazani nasono, wamenza isono ngenxa yethu; ukuze thina sibe bubulungisa bukaThixo kuye.
