1 UPawuli umphostoli kaJesu Kristu ^a ngentando kaNkulunkulu, loTimothi ^b umzalwane, kubandla likaNkulunkulu eliseKorinte ^c, labo bonke abangcwele ^d abakuyo yonke iAkaya ^e: 2 Umusa ^f kawube kini lokuthula okuvela kuNkulunkulu uBaba wethu lakuyo iNkosi uJesu Kristu.

UPawuli ubonga uNkulunkulu ngenduduzo langokusindiswa kwakhe engozini

3 Kabongwe ^g uNkulunkulu ^h, ngitsho uYise weNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu, uYise wobubele loNkulunkulu wenduduzo yonke, 4 osiduduza ⁱ ekuhluphekeni kwethu konke, ukuze sibe lamandla okududuza ^j abasekuhluphekeni loba yikuphi, ngenduduzo ^k esiduduzwa ngayo thina ngokwethu nguNkulunkulu; 5 ngoba njengalokhu inhlupheko zikaKristu ^l zengezelelekile kithi, ngokunjalo lenduduzo yethu yengezelelekile ngoKristu. 6 Njalo loba sihlutshwa, kungokwenduduzo ^{m
,} ⁿ losindiso lwenu ^o, okusetshenzwa ^p ekubekezeleni kulezizinhlupheko ezifananayo esihlupheka ngazo lathi; loba siduduzwa, kungokwenduduzo losindiso lwenu; 7 njalo ithemba lethu ngani liqinile, sisazi ukuthi njengalokhu lihlanganyela ezinhluphekweni ^q ngokunjalo lenduduzweni ^{r
,} ^s.

8 Ngoba kasithandi ^t ukuthi lingazi, bazalwane, ngokuhlupheka kwethu ^u okwasehlela eAsiya ^v, ukuthi sasindwa kakhulukazi ngokungaphezu kwamandla, saze saphelelwa lithemba ^w lelempilo. 9 Kodwa thina ngokwethu sasilaso kithi isigwebo ^{▼▼ isigwebo: kumbe, impendulo.} sokufa ^y, ukuze singazithembi thina ^z kodwa kuNkulunkulu ^aa ovusa abafileyo ^ab; 10 owasophula ^ac ekufeni okungaka, losophulayo; esithemba kuye ukuthi uzasophula futhi. 11 Lani lisebenzela thina ndawonye ngomkhuleko ^ad, ukuze isipho somusa kithi esivela ebantwini abanengi singasibongelwa ngabanengi ^ae.

12 Ngoba ukuzincoma kwethu yilokhu, ubufakazi besazela sethu ^af, ukuthi ngokungelankohliso ^ag langobuqotho ^ah bukaNkulunkulu, kungeyisikho ngenhlakanipho yenyama ^ai kodwa emuseni kaNkulunkulu, saziphatha emhlabeni, njalo ngokukhethekileyo maqondana lani. 13 Ngoba kasilibhaleli okunye, kodwa loba izinto elizifundayo kumbe njalo lizivume; ngithemba futhi ukuthi lizazivuma kuze kube sekupheleni; 14 njengalokhu lathi selisivumile nganxanye ^aj, ukuthi siyikuzincoma kwenu ^ak njengalokhu lani lingabethu, osukwini ^al lweNkosi uJesu.

UPawuli uchasisa isizatho sokungafiki kwakhe eKorinte

15 Langalelithemba ngafisa ^am ukuza kini kuqala, ukuze libe lomusa wesibili ^an; 16 njalo ukudlula kini ngisiya eMakedoniya ^ao, ngibuye kini futhi ngivela eMakedoniya ^ap, njalo ngidluliselwe ^aq yini eJudiya. 17 Ngakho ngiqonde lokho, besengisebenzisa yini ubulula? Kumbe izinto engizimisayo, ngimisa ngokwenyama ^ar yini, ukuze kube khona kimi uyebo, yebo; lohatshi, hatshi? 18 Kodwa uNkulunkulu uthembekile, ukuthi ilizwi ^as lethu elikini kalisuye uyebo lohatshi. 19 Ngoba iNdodana kaNkulunkulu uJesu Kristu ^at owatshunyayelwa yithi phakathi kwenu, yimi loSilivanu ^au loTimothi ^av, wayengeyisuye uyebo lohatshi, kodwa kuye ^aw kwakunguyebo. 20 Ngoba zonke izithembiso zikaNkulunkulu ^ax, kuye zinguyebo, lakuye zinguAmeni ^ay, kube ludumo lukaNkulunkulu ngathi. 21 Njalo osiqinisayo kanye lani kuKristu, owasigcobayo ^az, nguNkulunkulu, 22 owasiphawulayo lathi ^ba, wasenika isibambiso ^bb sikaMoya ^bc enhliziyweni zethu.

23 Kodwa mina ngibiza uNkulunkulu ^bd ukuthi abe ngumfakazi phezu komphefumulo wami, ukuze ngiliyekele ^be angikezi eKorinte. 24 Kungesikuthi sibusa ukholo lwenu ^bf, kodwa siyizisebenzi ndawonye zentokozo yenu; ngoba limi ngokholo ^bg.
