Romans 13

Mayelana lokulalela amakhosi

1Wonke umphefumulo a awuzehlisele ngaphansi kwamandla aphezulu b; ngoba kakukho amandla ngaphandle kwavela kuNkulunkulu c; lamandla akhona amiswe nguNkulunkulu d. 2Ngakho omelana lamandla, umelana lesimiso sikaNkulunkulu e; lalabo abamelana lawo bazazithathela ukulahlwa f. 3Ngoba ababusi kabesabeki emisebenzini emihle g, kodwa kwemibi. Njalo uyathanda yini ukungesabi amandla? Yenza okuhle, njalo uzakuba lodumo kuwo h; 4ngoba uyinceku kaNkulunkulu ukuze kube kuhle kuwe. Kodwa nxa usenza okubi, yesaba; ngoba inkemba kayiphatheli ize. Ngoba uyinceku kaNkulunkulu, ungumphindiseli wolaka kulowo owenza okubi. 5Ngakho kumele ukuthi uzehlise, kungabi ngenxa yolaka kuphela i, kodwa langenxa yesazela j. 6Ngoba ngenxa yalokho lithela lomthelo k; ngoba bayizinceku zikaNkulunkulu, ezikhuthalela khona lokho. 7Ngakho phanini bonke okufaneleyo l; umthelo kofanele umthelo m; inkokhelo kofanele inkokhelo; ukwesatshwa kofanele ukwesatshwa; udumo kofanele udumo n.

Ukuthanda abazalwane

8Lingabi lamlandu kumuntu, ngaphandle kowokuthandana; ngoba othanda omunye, ugcwalisile umlayo o. 9Ngoba lokhu ukuthi: Ungafebi, ungabulali, ungebi, ungafakazi amanga p, ungabi lomhawu q; loba-ke kukhona lawuphi umlayo, kuhlanganiswa kulelilizwi, kulokhu r: Wothanda umakhelwane wakho njengalokhu uzithanda wena s. 10Uthando kalwenzi okubi kumakhelwane; ngakho uthando luyikugcwaliseka komlayo t , u.

Ukuhamba ekukhanyeni

11Njalo lokhu, lisazi isikhathi v, ukuthi sekulihola w lokuthi sivuke ebuthongweni x; ngoba usindiso selusondele kithi kulesikhathi esakholwa ngaso y. 12Ubusuku budlulile, usuku selusondele z; ngakho asikhuphe imisebenzi yobumnyama aa, sihlome ab izikhali zokukhanya ac. 13Asihambe ngokufaneleyo, njengasemini ad, kungabi ngokuminza langokudakwa ae, kungabi semacansini af lokungcola ag, kungabi ngokuxabana langomona ah. 14Kodwa yembathani iNkosi uJesu Kristu, linganakekeli inyama ai, ngezinkanuko aj.
