Pe umuunhu jumonga unya buuba akiisa na kufughama pa Yesu, akam'buula akati, “Ghwe Mutwa, nave ukeliile kukumbalasia nisuuma umbalasie!”
3 UJesu welula isandla sakhe wayithinta wathi, “Ngiyathanda, hlambuluka!” Masinyane nje yasila ebulepherweni bayo.
UYesu akgholosia uluvoko, akamwabasia, akati, Nikeela, valala!” Unsiki ghughuo umuunhu jula, akavalala.
4 UJesu wasesithi kuyo, “Zwana, ungatsheli muntu ngalokhu. Kodwa hamba uyeziveza kumphristi, unikele ngesipho esamiswa nguMosi njengobufakazi ebantwini.”
Pe UYesu akam'buula akati, “Nungam'bulaghe nambe muunhu imhola isi! Ulwene uluta ghuhufie kwa ntekesi, ukahumie ilitekelo ndavule alyalaghiile uMoose, neke vuuve vwolesi ku vaanhu vooni kuuti avalasivue.”
5 UJesu esengenile eKhaphenawume, kwafika kuye induna yekhulu izocela uncedo.
UYesu akaluta mu likaaja ilya Kapelenaumu. Ye ikwingila mu likaaja ililo, um'baha jumonga ughwa vasikali ava kilooma akiisa,

7 UJesu wathi kuyo, “Ngizakuza ngizeyisilisa.”
UYesu akam'buula akati, “Nikwisa, ninsosie.”
8 Induna yekhulu yaphendula yathi, “Kakungilingananga ukuthi ungeza ungene ngaphansi kophahla lwami. Kodwa tshono ilizwi nje kuphela, inceku yami izasila.
Neke um'baha jula akamula, akati, “Ghwe Ntwa, uleke kukwingila mu nyumba jango ulwakuva une naninoghiile. Uve ujove li lisio lyene, um'bombi ghwngo isooka.
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.”
Nijova enendiiki ulwakuva, na juune nipulika ku vavaha vango, kange nili na vasikali vano vipulika kulyune. Ningam'buule jumonga niiti, 'Luta!' Iluta. Ujunge, ningati, 'Isa!' Ikwisa. Naju m'bombi ghwango ningam'buule kuuti, 'vomba ndiiki,' ivomba.”
10 UJesu wathi ekuzwa lokhu wamangala wathi kulabo ababemlandela, “Ngilitshela iqiniso, kangikamboni loyedwa ko-Israyeli olokukholwa okukhulu kangaka.
UYesu ye apulike amasio aghuo, akadegha, akavavuula vano valyale vikum'binglila, akati, “Kyang'haani nikuvavuula kuuti mu Vaisilaeli vooni nanimwaghile umuunhu unya lwitiko ulukome ndavule uju!
11 Ngithi kini abanengi bazavela empumalanga lentshonalanga, bahlale edilini lo-Abhrahama, lo-Isaka loJakhobe embusweni wezulu.
Nikuvavuula kuuti avaanhu vinga kuhuma imbali sooni isa iisivilikwisa na kukukala pa kikulukulu nu lukeelo palikimo na vakulu viitu uAbulahamu, nu Isaka, nu Yakovo mu vutwa vwa kukyanya.
12 Kodwa abanini bombuso bazaxotshelwa phandle emnyameni lapho okuzakuba khona ukukhala lokugedla kwamazinyo.”
Looli aVayahudi vano vakanoghiile kuuva mu vutwa uvuo vilitaghua kunji ku ng'hiisi, ukuo vilililagha na kugwegwenula amiino ulwakuva vali mu vuvafi uvukome.”
13 UJesu wasesithi enduneni yekhulu, “Hamba! Kuzakwenziwa njengalokhu ukholwa ukuthi kuzakwenziwa.” Inceku yayo yahle yasila ngalesosikhathi.
Pe uYesu akam'buula um'baha jula akati, “Vujagha! Sivombeke kulyuve ndavule lulivuo ulwitiko lwako.” Unsiki ghula ghula, um'bombi ghwa m'baha jula akasooka.
14 Kwathi lapho uJesu esengenile endlini kaPhethro, wabona uninazala kaPhethro elele embhedeni ephethwe ngumkhuhlane woqhuqho.
Pambele uYesu akingila mu nyumba ja Peteli, umuo akamwagha unkwive ghwa Peteli kwekuti ung'ina ghwa n'dala ali ni mhungu, aghonile pa kitala.
15 Wamthinta esandleni umkhuhlane wahle waphuma kuye, wavuka waqala ukumphakela.
Pe uYesu akamwabasia uluvoko, akasooka, akiima akategula kukuvatengelela.
16 Sekuntambama abanengi ababelamadimoni balethwa kuye wayikhupha imimoya ngelizwi njalo wasilisa bonke abagulayo.
Ye vwimile, vakamuletela uYesu avaanhu vinga avanya mapepo. Pe akaghadaga amapepo ghala ku ngufu sa lisio lyake. Kange akavasosia avatamu vooni.
17 Lokhu kwakugcwalisa okwakhulunywa ngomphrofethi u-Isaya ukuthi: “Wathatha ubuthakathaka bethu wathwala izifo zethu.”
Isio sikavombiike kukwilanisia sino silyajovilue nu m'bili uYesaya kuuti, “Akavusia inhamu siitu, akatusosia”
18 Wathi uJesu ebona amaxuku abantu abanengi bembuthanele, wathi akuchaphelwe ngaphetsheya ngakuleliyana icele lechibi.
ilipugha ilya vaanhu likansyungutila uYesu. UYesu ye aluvwene uluo, akavavuula avavulanisivua vaake kuuti valovoke valute imwambo jila.
19 Kwasekusiza kuye umfundisi womthetho wathi, “Mfundisi, ngizakulandela ungaze uye ngaphi.”
Pe um'bulanisi jumonga ughwa ndaghilo sa Moose akaluta pa Yesu, akam'buula akati, “Gwe M'bulanisi, nilonda kuuva m'bingilili ghwako, nikukuvingililagha kwoni kuno ghuluta.”
20 UJesu waphendula wathi, “Amakhanka alemilindi lezinyoni zemoyeni zilezidleke, kodwa iNdodana yoMuntu kayilandawo yokufihla ikhanda layo.”
UYesu akati, “Ing'heve sili ni mhanga, injuni sili ni fivwasu, neke ne Mwana ghwa Muunhu nili nsila nambe apa kughona!”
21 Omunye umfundi wathi kuye, “Nkosi, akuthi ngiqale ngihambe ngiyengcwaba ubaba.”
Pambele, jumonga mu vavulanisivua vaake akam'buula akati, Ghwe Mutwa, unhavule nulute taasi ninsyile unhaata ghwango.”
22 Kodwa uJesu wamtshela wathi, “Ngilandela, uyekele abafileyo bangcwabe abafileyo babo.”
Neke uYesu akam'buula akati, “Umbingililaghe! Valeke avafue vavasyile avafue avaave.”
23 UJesu wasengena esikepeni abafundi bakhe bamlandela.
Pe uYesu akingila mu ngalava, voope avavunisiavua vaake vakingila mula, vakavuuka viluta.
24 Masinyane nje kwaphakama isiphepho esesabekayo echibini, amagagasi atshaya phezu kwesikepe. Kodwa uJesu wayelele.
Ye vali mu lisumbe, nakalingi imhepo imbaha jikagugula, amavingo amavaha ghakatengula kukupikila ingalava jila. Unsiki ughuo UYesu akaghoneliile.
25 Abafundi bahamba bayamvusa besithi, “Nkosi, sihlenge, Sesigalula!”
Avavulanisivua vaake vakaluta pa mwene vakansisimula, vakati, Mutwa, utupoke! Tufua!”
26 Waphendula wathi, “Lina bokukholwa okuncinyane, kungani lisesaba kangaka?” Wasephakama wawukhuza umoya kanye lamagagasi, kwasekuthula cwaka.
UYesu akavamula akati, “kiki muli voghofi, mwe vanya lwitiko ludebe umue? Pe akiima, akajidalikila imhepo nilisumbe, kukalitamalwoni.
27 Amadoda amangala abuza athi, “Ngumuntu bani lo? Oze alalelwe ngumoya kanye lamagagasi!”
Avavulanisivua vaake vakadegha kyongo vakati, “Uju ghwe veeni juno imhepo na mavingo fikumpulika?”
28 Wathi ekufikeni kwakhe ngakwelinye icele emangweni wamaGadarini wahlangabezwa ngamadoda amabili ayelamadimoni eqhamuka emathuneni. Ayelodlakela, kungasadluli muntu ngaleyondlela.
Pambele ye valovwike vali imwambo ija Vagelasi, uYesu akatang'hana na vaanhu vavili avanya mapepo, vahumile kuno vikukala ku mbiipa. Avaanhu avuo valyale vakali kyongo, nakwealyale umuunhu juno akaghelagha kukila isila jila.
29 Amemeza athi, “Ufunani kithi, Ndodana kaNkulunkulu? Uze lapha ukuzasihlupha singakafiki isikhathi esimisiweyo na?”
Avaanhu avuo vakakoola fiijo vakati, “Ghwe Mwana ghwa Nguluve, tuli vuki nuuve? Ghwisile kuno kukutupumsia pano unsiki ghwitu ghukyale?”
30 Bucwala kwawo umhlambi omkhulu wengulube wawusidla.
Pa vutali padebe pwelilyale ilipugha ilya ngube, lidimua.
31 Amadimoni amncenga uJesu athi, “Nxa usikhupha, sithumele emhlambini wengulube.”
Pe amapepo ghala ghakampelepesia uYesu, ghakati, “Nave ukutudaga, utwitikisie tulute, twingile mu lipugha lila ilya ngube.
32 Wathi kuwo, “Hambani!” Aphuma ayangena engulubeni, umhlambi wonke waphaphatheka waqonda eliweni wangena echibini, wafela emanzini.
UYesu akati, “Lutagha!” pe ghakahuma mu vaanhu vala, ghakingila mu lipugha lila ilya ngube. Nakalingi ilipugha lilalyoni likiika luvilo, likaselebukila mu lisumbe, ingube sooni sikafua.
33 Labo ababezelusile baphaphatheka baqonda edolobheni bayabika konke lokhu, besitsho lalokho okwenzakala kulawomadoda ayelamadimoni.
Avadiimi va ngube vakakimbila luvilo, vakaluta mu likaaja, vakapanga sooni sino sivombiike, palikimo na sino sihumiile ku vanya mapepo vala.
34 Khonapho idolobho lonke laphuma ukuyahlangana loJesu. Bathi sebembonile bamncenga ukuba asuke emangweni wakibo.
Avaanhu vooi ava likaaja ilio vakahuma, vakuluta kwa Yesu. Ye vamwaghile, vakampelepesia avuuke mu iisi jaave.
