1 Kwathi esehlile entabeni amaxuku abantu amlandela.
Matungo u Yesu naukusima pihi kupuma mulugulu, milundo ukulu ukamutyata.
2 Indoda eyayilobulephero yeza yaguqa phambi kwakhe yathi, “Nkosi nxa uthanda ungangenza ngihlambuluke.”
Goza, umunyambili akaza kuntongeela akwe, akalunga “Mukulu, ang'wi wihambile, uhumile kunzipya ntule nimuza.
3 UJesu welula isandla sakhe wayithinta wathi, “Ngiyathanda, hlambuluka!” Masinyane nje yasila ebulepherweni bayo.
U Yesu akagoola umkono akwe nukumuamba, akalunga, “Nihambile utule wing'welu.” Matungo yayo akazipigwa imbili ikahila.
4 UJesu wasesithi kuyo, “Zwana, ungatsheli muntu ngalokhu. Kodwa hamba uyeziveza kumphristi, unikele ngesipho esamiswa nguMosi njengobufakazi ebantwini.”
U Yesu akamuila, “Goza uleke kumuila muntu wihi. Ambi nzila ako, hangi ulongole uewe ende umulagile umdimi, upumye nisongeelyo numusa au iagiiye, kunsoko awikengi wako.”
5 UJesu esengenile eKhaphenawume, kwafika kuye induna yekhulu izocela uncedo.
Matungo u Yesu akapika Kapernaumu, munyangulu ung'wi akaza kitalakwe akamuuliza,
6 Yathi, “Nkosi, inceku yami ilele phansi endlini, yome umhlubulo, isebuhlungwini obukhulu.”
akalunga, “Mukulu, umitumi ane ulae munyumba ukete ulwae wigandi hangi umuili utete uwai wakogopa.”
7 UJesu wathi kuyo, “Ngizakuza ngizeyisilisa.”
U Yesu akamuila, nzile nukumukamya.”
8 Induna yekhulu yaphendula yathi, “Kakungilingananga ukuthi ungeza ungene ngaphansi kophahla lwami. Kodwa tshono ilizwi nje kuphela, inceku yami izasila.
Umunyangulu akasukiilya hangi akamuila, “Mukulu unene niantuni ni mpaka nize ningile munyumba ako. Tambula ulukani du numitumi ane ukukomigwa.
9 Ngoba mina ngokwami ngingumuntu ongaphansi komthetho, ngilamabutho angaphansi kwami. Lo ngimtshela ngithi, ‘Hamba,’ ahambe; ngithi kuloyana, ‘Buya,’ lakanye abuye. Ngithi encekwini yami, ‘Yenza lokhu,’ ikwenze.”
Kunsoko une nimuntu ninkite uhumi ntete anino ane anyangulu, akanunge kung'wa uyu “Longola” wilongola nukumuya, nzuu nung'wenso wiiza, nukumitumi wane. Itume iti, nung'wenso ukituma uu.
10 UJesu wathi ekuzwa lokhu wamangala wathi kulabo ababemlandela, “Ngilitshela iqiniso, kangikamboni loyedwa ko-Israyeli olokukholwa okukhulu kangaka.
Matungo u Yesu naiwija aya, akakuilwa, akaila ao naiamutyatile, tai namuita nkili kuona umuntu nukite uhuili anga uyu mihi iyi na Israeli.
11 Ngithi kini abanengi bazavela empumalanga lentshonalanga, bahlale edilini lo-Abhrahama, lo-Isaka loJakhobe embusweni wezulu.
Idu azile akupuma kilya ning'weli, akikie palung'wi nu Abrahamu, Isaka nu Yakobo muutemi wa kigulu.
12 Kodwa abanini bombuso bazaxotshelwa phandle emnyameni lapho okuzakuba khona ukukhala lokugedla kwamazinyo.”
Ingigwa iana autemi akugung'wa mukiti nikakunzi, pang'wanso izitula kililo kakasia namino.”
13 UJesu wasesithi enduneni yekhulu, “Hamba! Kuzakwenziwa njengalokhu ukholwa ukuthi kuzakwenziwa.” Inceku yayo yahle yasila ngalesosikhathi.
U Yesu akamuila umunyangulu, “Longola! Anga nauhuie, na itule anga uu kitalako, nu mitumi akagunika itungo lilo.
14 Kwathi lapho uJesu esengenile endlini kaPhethro, wabona uninazala kaPhethro elele embhedeni ephethwe ngumkhuhlane woqhuqho.
Matungo nu Yesu aupikile munyumba ang'wa Petro, akamuona umukwingwa ang'wa Petro nuakisungu ulae akazimulwae ndwala.
15 Wamthinta esandleni umkhuhlane wahle waphuma kuye, wavuka waqala ukumphakela.
U Yesu akamuamba umukono wake, nindyala ikahega, sunga akauka akatula muailya.
16 Sekuntambama abanengi ababelamadimoni balethwa kuye wayikhupha imimoya ngelizwi njalo wasilisa bonke abagulayo.
Naipikile impindi antu idu ikamuletela u Yesu antu idu naikaiwe niamintunga. Akaazunsa iamintunawa naialwae akaakomya.
17 Lokhu kwakugcwalisa okwakhulunywa ngomphrofethi u-Isaya ukuthi: “Wathatha ubuthakathaka bethu wathwala izifo zethu.”
Kunsoko iyiye aakondigwe kuligitigwa nunabii Isaya, “Ung'wanso aukenkile ulwae witu hangi aukenkile upungukilwa witu.”
18 Wathi uJesu ebona amaxuku abantu abanengi bembuthanele, wathi akuchaphelwe ngaphetsheya ngakuleliyana icele lechibi.
Sunga u Yesu naiwaliana iumbi nailimupilimile, akaalagila ende nkigi ngiza na luzi la Galilaya.
19 Kwasekusiza kuye umfundisi womthetho wathi, “Mfundisi, ngizakulandela ungaze uye ngaphi.”
Sunga muika nkani ung'wi akaza kitalakwe akamuila, “Mumanyisi, kunuhongee.”
20 UJesu waphendula wathi, “Amakhanka alemilindi lezinyoni zemoyeni zilezidleke, kodwa iNdodana yoMuntu kayilandawo yokufihla ikhanda layo.”
U Yesu akamuila, “Amulula atite imakombo, ni nyunyi niamigulya itite iuye, ung'wana wang'wa Adamu mugila uhongo wakulalisha itwe.”
21 Omunye umfundi wathi kuye, “Nkosi, akuthi ngiqale ngihambe ngiyengcwaba ubaba.”
Mumanyisigwa ung'wi akamuila, “Mkulu, ngombye hanza nongole nende muika ibaba ane ukule.”
22 Kodwa uJesu wamtshela wathi, “Ngilandela, uyekele abafileyo bangcwabe abafileyo babo.”
Sunga u Yesu akamuila, “Ntyate, hange uwaleke iashi aike iashi ao.”
23 UJesu wasengena esikepeni abafundi bakhe bamlandela.
U Yesu naiwingie mibini, iamanyisigwa akwe ikamutyata mibini.
24 Masinyane nje kwaphakama isiphepho esesabekayo echibini, amagagasi atshaya phezu kwesikepe. Kodwa uJesu wayelele.
Goza uluzi ukatula nimaingo makulu, ibini lika kunikilwa ni mazi, imatungo nanso u Yesu au iae.
25 Abafundi bahamba bayamvusa besithi, “Nkosi, sihlenge, Sesigalula!”
Amanyisigwa akaza kitalakwe akamupitya akalunga, “Tata kugune usese kakasha!”
26 Waphendula wathi, “Lina bokukholwa okuncinyane, kungani lisesaba kangaka?” Wasephakama wawukhuza umoya kanye lamagagasi, kwasekuthula cwaka.
U Yesu akaaila kuniki nimukogopa, unye nimutite uhuili unino? Itungo inino akauka akaupalya ung'wega nu luzi. Sunga ung'wega ukakilaga.
27 Amadoda amangala abuza athi, “Ngumuntu bani lo? Oze alalelwe ngumoya kanye lamagagasi!”
Itunja ikakuilwa ikalunga, uyu muntu kii, uluzi niamintunga akumukulya?”
28 Wathi ekufikeni kwakhe ngakwelinye icele emangweni wamaGadarini wahlangabezwa ngamadoda amabili ayelamadimoni eqhamuka emathuneni. Ayelodlakela, kungasadluli muntu ngaleyondlela.
Matungo nu Yesu nauzile kunkika kihi na Magadala, itunja abiili naizaingiwe niamintunga ikatankanya nung'wenso akaze apumie muibiila akazenyomana ikulu, kutile muntu amihizazo nauhumila inzila nanso.
29 Amemeza athi, “Ufunani kithi, Ndodana kaNkulunkulu? Uze lapha ukuzasihlupha singakafiki isikhathi esimisiweyo na?”
Akitunta ikalunga, kukete ntuni kitalako, uwe ng'wang'wi Tunda? Waza kuunyoma umatungo itu akili kupika?
30 Bucwala kwawo umhlambi omkhulu wengulube wawusidla.
Ilundo ikulu nila ngulima ailikudima, singa aikuli napo naiakoli,
31 Amadimoni amncenga uJesu athi, “Nxa usikhupha, sithumele emhlambini wengulube.”
amitunga azetukana kung'wa Yesu, akazilunga, ang'we ukuzunsa kupume, kutwale milundo la ngulima.”
32 Wathi kuwo, “Hambani!” Aphuma ayangena engulubeni, umhlambi wonke waphaphatheka waqonda eliweni wangena echibini, wafela emanzini.
U Yesu akaila, “Longoli!” Iamintunga ikamanka ikalongola mungulima. Ilundo lihi likasima kupuma mulugulu, kuhonga muluzi, yihi ikashila mumazi.
33 Labo ababezelusile baphaphatheka baqonda edolobheni bayabika konke lokhu, besitsho lalokho okwenzakala kulawomadoda ayelamadimoni.
Eitunja nakuidima ingulima ikamanka. Naialongola mukisali ikaligitya ihi ayo napumie kuitunja ao naingigwe niamintunga.
34 Khonapho idolobho lonke laphuma ukuyahlangana loJesu. Bathi sebembonile bamncenga ukuba asuke emangweni wakibo.
Kisali kihi kikaza kulankanya nu Yesu. Naiamuona, ikamupepelya alege mukisali kao.
