15. Kodwa ke ndibhalile kuni ngobuganga obukhulu kwezinye iindawo, bazalwana, ngokophindayo ukunikhumbuza ngenxa yobabalo awandibabala ngalo uThixo,
16. ukuze ndibe ngobúsela iintlanga kuYesu Kristu, osebenza ububingeleli ngazo iindaba ezilungileyo zikaThixo, ukuze ukusondezwa kweentlanga kwamkeleke kakuhle, kúngcwalisiwe ngoMoya oyiNgcwele.
17. Ngoko ndiyazingca, ndíkuKristu Yesu, ngezinto ezilunge kuThixo.
18. Kuba mna andiyi kuba nabuganga bakuthetha nto ngezinto angazisebenzanga uKristu ngam, ukuze zimlulamele iintlanga, ngelizwi ke nangomsebenzi,
19. ngamandla emiqondiso nezimanga, ngamandla oMoya kaThixo; endide ndathi, ndithabathela eYerusalem, ndajikelezisa, ndezisa kwelaseIliriko, ndazizalisa iindaba ezilungileyo zikaKristu.
20. Ndenjénjalo ke ukuzondelela ukushumayela iindaba ezilungileyo; kungekhona apho uKristu wakhankanywayo, ukuze ndingakhi phezu kwesiseko somnye;
21. kube njengokuba kubhaliwe, kwathiwa,Abo bangabikelwanga nto ngaye, baya kubona;Nabo bangevanga nto, baya kuqonda.(UIsaya 52:15)
22. Kungoko ndabanjezelwayo nokubanjezelwa futhi, ukuba ndingafiki kuni.
23. Ngoku ke ndíngasenandawo nje kule mimandla, ndíneminyaka ke emininzi ndilangazelela ukuza kuni,
24. xa ndihambela kwelaseSpani, ndoza kuni; kuba ndithemba ukunibona xa ndicandayo kuni, nokuphelekelelwa nini ukuya khona, ukuba ndithe kuqala ndakha ndadlelana nani ngokwaneleyo.
25. Kalokunje ke ndisinga eYerusalem, ndisiya kulungiselela abangcwele.
26. Kuba kwakholeka kwabelaseMakedoni nabelaseAkaya, ukuba badlelane namahlwempu abo bangcwele baseYerusalem ngokuwupha okuthile.
27. Ndithi kwakholeka kubo, kuba kakade banetyala kubo. Kuba iintlanga, xa zadlelanayo nabo ngezinto zabo ezizezomoya, zifanele ukubabusela ngezizezenyama.
28. Ngoko, ndakuba ndikufinyezile oko, ndasinqabisela kubo eso siqhamo, ndobuya ngani ukuya kwelaseSpani.
