Amavesi EBhayibheli ngomzimba
- Kepha anazi yini ukuthi umzimba wenu uyithempeli likaMoya oNgcwele okinina, enimamukele kuNkulunkulu, nokuthi anisibo abenu na? Ngokuba nathengwa ngenani elikhulu. Ngakho-ke mbongeni uNkulunkulu emzimbeni wenu.
- Ngokuba njengalokhu sinezitho eziningi emzimbeni munye, kepha izitho zonke azinamsebenzi munye, kanjalo thina esibaningi simzimba munye kuKristu, kepha ngabanye siyizitho, omunye esomunye.
- Ngokuba wena uzenzile izinso zami,
wangaluka esiswini sikamame.
Ngiyakukubonga,
ngokuba ngenziwa ngokwesabekayo nangokumangalisayo;
imisebenzi yakho iyamangalisa;
umphefumulo wami uyakwazi kahle. - Inyama yami nenhliziyo yami iyaphela;
nokho uNkulunkulu uyidwala lenhliziyo yami
nesabelo sami kuze kube phakade. - Khipha usizi enhliziyweni yakho,
udlulise okubi emzimbeni wakho,
ngokuba ubusha nobunsizwa buyize. - Inhliziyo eyenamileyo iyikhambi elihle,
kepha umoya owaphukileyo uyomisa amathambo. - Lindani, nikhuleke ukuba ningangeni ekulingweni; umoya uyavuma, kepha inyama ibuthakathaka.
- Ungabi ngohlakaniphileyo emehlweni akho;
mesabe uJehova, udede ebubini.
Lokho kuyakuba yimpilo emzimbeni wakho
nokuhlunyelelwa kwamathambo akho. - Ngokuba ukujwayeza umzimba kusiza ingcosana, kepha ukumesaba uNkulunkulu kusiza ezintweni zonke, kunesithembiso salokhu kuphila nalokho okuzayo.
- Ukuthula kukaKristu makubuse ezinhliziyweni zenu, enabizelwa futhi kukho emzimbeni munye; futhi yibani ngababongayo.
- Ngakho asidangali, kodwa noma kubhubha umuntu wethu wangaphandle, owangaphakathi wenziwa musha imihla ngemihla.
- Kodwa ngiyawutuba umzimba wami, ngiwenza isigqila, ukuba mina engishumayeza abanye ngingaliwa mina uqobo.
- Amazwi amahle anjengamakhekheba oju;
amnandi emphefumulweni, ayimpiliso emathanjeni. - Ngalokho-ke ngithi kini: Ningakhathazeki ngokuphila kwenu ukuthi niyakudlani noma niyakuphuzani, nangomzimba wenu ukuthi niyakwembathani. Ukuphila akukukhulu kunokudla nomzimba kunesambatho na?
- Munye umzimba, munye uMoya, njengalokho nabizelwa ethembeni linye lokubizwa kwenu.
- Ngokuba njengomzimba umunye, kepha unezitho eziningi, nezitho zonke zomzimba, nokuba ziziningi, zingumzimba munye, unjalo-ke noKristu.
- Ningabesabi ababulala umzimba bengenamandla okubulala umphefumulo, kepha kakhulu mesabeni onamandla okubhubhisa nomphefumulo nomzimba esihogweni.
- Ngokuba sonke siyakhubeka ngokuningi; uma umuntu engakhubeki ngazwi, lowo uyindoda epheleleyo enamandla okubamba nomzimba wonke kungathi ngetomu.
- Uma iso lakho lokunene likukhubekisa, likhiphe, ulilahle; ngokuba kungcono kuwe ukuba kubhubhe sibe sinye ezithweni zakho kunokuba wonke umzimba wakho uphonswe esihogweni.
- Ningakhathazeki ngokuphila kwenu ukuthi niyakudlani, nangomzimba wenu ukuthi niyakwembathani. Ngokuba ukuphila kukhulu kunokudla, nomzimba kunesambatho.
- Ngokuba siyazi ukuthi uma indlu yethu yasemhlabeni eyidokodo idilizwa, sinesakhiwo esivela kuNkulunkulu, indlu engenziwanga ngezandla, eyaphakade, esezulwini.
- Indoda ayinike umfazi okumfaneleyo; nomfazi enze njalo endodeni. Umfazi kanamandla phezu kowakhe umzimba, kodwa yindoda enawo; kanjalo nayo indoda ayinamandla phezu kowayo umzimba, kodwa ngumfazi onawo.
- Nkulunkulu, wena unguNkulunkulu wami,
ngiyakufuna ekuseni;
umphefumulo wami womele wena;
inyama yami ilangazelela wena
ezweni elomileyo eligagadekileyo,
lapho amanzi engekho khona. - UJehova uNkulunkulu wakha owesifazane ngobambo abeluthathile kumuntu, wamyisa kumuntu.
Wayesethi umuntu: “Lo useyithambo lamathambo ami nenyama yenyama yami; uyakubizwa ngokuthi indodakazi, ngokuba uthathwe endodeni.” Ngalokho indoda iyakushiya uyise nonina, inamathele kumkayo; bayakuba nyamanye. - Wayesethabatha isinkwa, wabonga, wasihlephula, wabanika, wathi: “Lokhu kungumzimba wami onikelwa nina; yenzani lokhu ukuba ningikhumbule.”
