Sebedabule isiqhingi sonke , baze bafika ePhafu , bafumana indoda ethile eyisanusi nomprofethi wamanga, umJuda, ogama lakhe linguBarjesu,

Wafumana khona umJuda oth ile ogama lakhe lingu -Akwila, wasePontu ngokuzalwa, owayesanda kufika ephuma e -Italiya, enoPrisila umkakhe , ngenxa yesimemezelo sikaKlawudiyu sokuba bonke abaJuda bamuke eRoma ; weza kubo;

UmJuda othile ogama lakhe lingu -Apholo, wase-Aleksandriya ngokuzalwa, indoda efundileyo nenamandla emibhalweni, wehlela e-Efesu.

USkeva othile , umJuda, umpristi omkhulu , wayenamadodana ayisikhombisa ayekwenza lokho.

Akakho umJuda nomGreki , akakho oboshiweyo nokhululekileyo , akakho owesilisa nowesifazane, ngokuba nina nonke nimunye kuKristu Jesu.

Ngokuba umJuda kakusiye onguye ngokubonwayo, nokusoka akusikho okubonwa enyameni;

kodwa umJuda yilowo onguye ngaphakathi , nokusoka kungokwenhliziyo, ngomoya kungengegama , okutuswa kwakhe kungaveli kubantu kepha kuNkulunkulu.

Ngalokho kuyini umJuda adlula abanye ngakho na ? Kukho, ukusoka kunokusiza kuni na?

Ngokuba uMoridekayi , umJuda, wayelama inkosi u -Ahashiveroshi ngobukhulu, emkhulu phakathi kwabaJuda , ethokozelwa ngaba fowabo abaningi, efuna okuhle kwesizwe sakubo , ekhuluma ukuthula kuyo yonke inzalo yabo.

Kepha konke lokho akunganelisi ngalutho kuso sonke isikhathi engilokhu ngibona ngaso uMoridekayi, umJuda, ehlezi esangweni lenkosi.

Yayisithi inkosi kuHaman i: Shesha, uthathe is ambatho nehhashi njengokusho kwakho, wenze njalo kuMoridekayi, umJuda, ohlezi esangweni lenkosi. Makungaphuthi lutho lwakho konke okukhulumileyo.
