KwabaseKorinte 1: 1-9

1:1 UPawulos, wabizwa njengoMpostile kaYesu Kristu ngentando kaThixo; kunye noSostene, umzalwana:

1:2 kwiBandla likaThixo eliseKorinte, kwabo bangcwalisiweyo kuKristu Yesu, babiziweyo ukuba babe ngabangcwele kunye nabo bonke abalinqulayo igama leNkosi yethu uYesu Kristu ezindaweni zonke zabo kwanezethu..

1:3 uthi, Makube lubabalo kuni, noxolo oluvela kuThixo uBawo wethu, neNkosi yethu uYesu Kristu.

1:4 Ndihlala ndibulela kuye uThixo wam ngenxa yenu, ngenxa yobabalo lukaThixo, awanibabala ngalo nikuKristu Yesu.

1:5 Ngolo lubabalo, kuzo zonke izinto, niye naba zizityebi kuye, ngamazwi onke nangokwazi konke.

1:6 Kwaye, ubungqina bukaKristu bomeleziwe kuni.

1:7 Ngele ndlela, akukho nto niyisweleyo nalubabalo, njengoko nilindele ukutyhileka kweNkosi yethu uYesu Kristu.

1:8 Kwaye yena, ngokunjalo, uya kukomeleza, kude kube sekupheleni, ngaphandle kwetyala, kude kube yimini yokufika kweNkosi yethu uYesu Kristu.

1:9 UThixo uthembekile. Ngaye, nabizelwa ebudlelaneni boNyana wakhe, uYesu Kristu iNkosi yethu.

The Holy Gospel According to Matthew 24: 42-51

24:42	Ngoko ke, phaphama. For you do not know at what hour your Lord will return.
24:43	But know this: if only the father of the family knew at what hour the thief would arrive, he would certainly keep vigil and not permit his house to be broken into.
24:44	Ngesi sizathu, you also must be prepared, for you do not know at what hour the Son of man will return.
24:45	Consider this: who is a faithful and prudent servant, who has been appointed by his lord over his family, to give them their portion in due time?
24:46	Blessed is that servant, ukuba, when his lord has arrived, he shall find him doing so.
24:47	Amen ndithi kuni, he shall appoint him over all of his goods.
24:48	But if that evil servant has said in his heart, ‘My lord has been delayed in returning,'
24:49	kwaye, he begins to strike his fellow servants, and he eats and drinks with the inebriated:
24:50	then the lord of that servant will arrive on a day that he does not expect, and at an hour that he does not know.
24:51	And he shall separate him, and he shall place his portion with the hypocrites, where there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
