Imfundziso lephilile kumacembu onkhe ebandleni
1Wena fundzisa loko lokufanele imfundziso lephilile. 2Uyale emadvodza lamadzala kutsi atitsibe, azitse, acondze, acine ekukholweni, naselutsandvweni, nasekuciniseleni. 3Kanjalo nabomake labadzala ubayale kutsi bahlonipheke ngesimilo, bangabi tinhlebi nome tigcili tekudzakwa, kufanele babe bafundzisi balokulungile. 4Abafundzise bomakoti kutsi batsandze emadvodza abo nebantfwababo, 5babe ngulabacondzile nalabacotfo; baphatse kahle emakhaya abo, balunge, batfobele emadvodza abo, kuze lingahlanjalatwa livi laNkulunkulu.
6Ubayale nalabadvuna labasebancane kutsi batitsibe. 7Wena-ke ube sibonelo lesihle ngato tonkhe tindlela. Ufundzise ngebucotfo nangekutimisela, 8nangekukhuluma lokuphilile lokungasoleki, kuze kutsi labo labamelene natsi, bahlazeke ngekutsi bate lokubi labangahle bakusho ngatsi.
9Uyale netisebenti kutsi titfobele baphatsi bato kuko konkhe, tibenelise, tingaphikisani nabo inkhani. 10Tingebi, kodvwa tikhombise kwetsembeka kuko konkhe, kuze etintfweni tonkhe tihlobise imfundziso yaNkulunkulu uMsindzisi wetfu.
11Empeleni umusa waNkulunkulu wekusindzisa ubonakaliswe kubo bonkhe bantfu. 12Lomusa usifundzisa kutsi sikudzele kungakholwa, nekutsi sitilumule etinkhanukweni telive, bese siphila ngekuzitsa, nangekulunga, nangekumesaba Nkulunkulu kulomhlaba, 13ngesikhatsi sisabheke kugcwaliseka kwelitsemba lelibusisekile, kubonakala kwenkhatimulo yebukhosi baNkulunkulu lomkhulu, uMsindzisi wetfu Khristu Jesu. 14Yena watinikela ngenca yetfu, kuze atesihlenga ebubini bonkhe atingcwelisele sive lesisakhe, lesinenshisekelo kutsi sente imisebenti lemihle.
15Khuluma letintfo ngekuyala nekwekhuta ngawo onkhe emandla. Akubete lokubukela phansi.
