7
“Babusisiwe labo
Nkulunkulu labatsetselele tiphambuko tabo,
nalabo labatono tabo tisitjekelwe.
8Ubusisiwe umuntfu,
iNkhosi lengeyumbalela sono.”

Kambe ngabe lokubusiseka kwalabasokile bodvwana yini? Cha, kwabo nalabangakasoki. Ngobe sitsatsa ngekutsi: “Abrahama wakholwa nguNkulunkulu, ngenca yekukholwa kwakhe Nkulunkulu wamemukela kutsi ulungile.” 10Loku kwenteka nini? Kwenteka asasokile yini Abrahama nome angakasoki? Kwenteka angakasoki, hhayi asasokile. 11

Wasoka muva, lokusoka kwaba luphawu lwekucinisa kutsi ngenca yekukholwa kwa-Abrahama Nkulunkulu abesamemukele ngekutsi ulungile, ngaphambi kwekutsi asoke. Ngako-ke Abrahama waba nguyise wabo bonkhe labakholwa nguNkulunkulu bese bemukelwa nguye kutsi balungile, nome bangakasoki. 12
Uphindze abe nguyise walabo labasokile, hayi ngobe basokile, kodvwa ngobe baphila imphilo yekukholwa lefanana nalena leyaphilwa ngubane wetfu Abrahama asengakasoki.

Setsembiso sekutsi uyawuba yindlalifa yemhlaba asinikwanga Abrahama nome situkulwane sakhe ngobe agcine umtsetfo, kodvwa ngobe wakholwa wase wemukelwa nguNkulunkulu kutsi ulungile. 14Ngobe nangabe tindlalifa kungulabo labalalela umtsetfo, kukholwa kucitsekile, nesetsembiso sibhidlikile. 15

1 Khor. 15:56
Umtsetfo uletsa intfukutselo; kodvwa lapho kute umtsetfo khona, kute nekuwephula.
16
Ngako-ke setsembiso semukelwa ngekukholwa, khona konkhe kuyawuba ngemusa waNkulunkulu, ngaleyo ndlela-ke setsembiso siphiwe wonkhe umuntfu loyintalo ya-Abrahama. Lentalo ya-Abrahama-ke akusibo labo labagcina umtsetfo nje kuphela, kodvwa ngibo nalabo labakholwa njengaye. Abrahama ungubabe wetfu sonkhe, 17

njengobe kubhaliwe kutsi:
“Ngikukhetsele kutsi ube nguyise wetive letinyenti.” Lesetsembiso wasemukela kuNkulunkulu labemetsemba; lowo-ke nguNkulunkulu lovusa labagfile baphile. Nguye lokhuluma bese kuba khona lokungazange sekube khona. 18
Abrahama wakholwa, wetsemba, kungekho tsemba, ngako wase uba “nguyise wetive letinyenti”, njengobe umBhalo utsi: “Titukulwane takho tiyawuba ngaka.” 19
