1 Ngoko ke, ngoku akukho kugwetywa kwabakuKristu Yesu; abangahambiyo ngokwenyama, abahamba ngokoMoya.
2 Kuba umthetho woMoya wobomi, ndakuba kuKristu Yesu, wandikhulula emthethweni wesono nokufa.
3 Kuba ekukhohlweni komthetho, ekubeni uswele amandla ngayo inyama, uthe uThixo, ethume owakhe uNyana, efana nenyama elawulwa sisono, emthume ngenxa yesono, wasigweba isono esenyameni leyo;
4 ukuze ibango lomthetho lizaliseke kuthi, thina singahambiyo ngokwenyama; sihambayo ngokoMoya.
5 Kuba abo bangokwenyama banyamekela izinto zasenyameni; abo ke bangokoMoya banyamekela izinto zaseMoyeni.
6 Kuba ukunyameka kwenyama ikukufa; ukunyameka ke koMoya bubomi noxolo.
