KuThimothewu 2-4

¹ Ngakho ngiyakuyala phambi kukaNkulunkulu neNkosi uJesu Kristu ozakwahlulela abaphilayo nabafileyo ngokubonakala kwakhe nombuso wakhe;

² Shumayela izwi; phuthuma ngenkathi, ingekho inkathi; sola, ukhuze, uyale ngakho konke ukubekezela nokufundisa.

³ Ngokuba siyeza isikhathi abangayikuvuma ngaso isifundiso esiphilileyo; kodwa ngokwezinkanuko zabo bayakuzibuthela abafundisi, beluma izindlebe;

⁴ njalo bazafulathelisa izindlebe zabo eqinisweni, baphendukele ezinganekwaneni.

⁵ Kodwa wena qaphela ezintweni zonke, ubekezele ezinhluphekweni, wenze umsebenzi womvangeli, ugcwalise inkonzo yakho.

⁶ Ngokuba mina sengizanikelwa, nesikhathi sokumuka kwami sesifikile.

⁷ Ngikulwile ukulwa okuhle, ngiliqedile ibanga lami, ngigcinile ukukholwa;

⁸ Kusukela khathesi ngibekelwe umqhele wokulunga, ezanginika wona ngalolosuku iNkosi, umahluleli olungileyo, kungeyisimi ngedwa, kodwa lakubo bonke abathanda ukubonakala kwayo.

⁹ Yenza ngenkuthalo ukuthi uze kimi masinyane.

¹⁰ Ngokuba uDema ungishiyile, ethanda leli zwe lamanje, waya eThesalonika; uKreske eGalathiya, uThithu eDalmatiya.

¹¹ NguLuka yedwa onami. Thatha uMarku, uze naye, ngokuba uyasiza kimi enkonzweni.

¹² UThikhiku ngimthumele e-Efesu.

¹³ Ijazi engalishiya eTrowa kuKarpu, ekufikeni kwakho, ulethe kanye nezincwadi, ikakhulu ezesikhumba.

¹⁴ U-Aleksandru, umkhandi wethusi wangenza okubi okuningi; uJehova makamnike ngokwemisebenzi yakhe;

¹⁵ Mqaphele nawe; ngoba umelane kakhulu lamazwi ethu.

¹⁶ Ekuziphenduleleni kwami kokuqala akukho muntu owama nami, kepha bonke bangishiya;

¹⁷ Nokho iNkosi yema nami, yangiqinisa; ukuze ngami ivangeli laziwe ngokugcwele, nezizwe zonke zizwe; ngakhululwa emlonyeni wengonyama.

¹⁸ INkosi iyakungikhulula kuyo yonke imisebenzi emibi, ingilondolozele embusweni wayo wasezulwini: makube kuyo inkazimulo kuze kube phakade naphakade. Amen.

¹⁹ Khonzani koPriska no-Akwila nendlu ka-Onesiforu.

²⁰ U-Erastu wasala eKorinte, kepha uTrofimu ngamshiya eMilethu egula.

²¹ Khuthalela ukufika ngaphambi kobusika. Uyakhonza kuwe u-Eubhulo, noPude, noLinu, noKlawudiya, nabo bonke abazalwane.

²² INkosi uJesu Kristu mayibe nomoya wakho. Umusa mawube nani. Amen. (Incwadi yesibili eya kuThimothewu, owagcotshwa umbhishobhi wokuqala webandla lase-Efesu, yalotshwa eRoma, lapho uPawulu elethwa phambi kukaNero okwesibili.)
