1 Kwathi esehlile entabeni, amlandela amaxuku amakhulu;
UYesu akiika kuhuma ku kidunda, ilipugha lya vaanhu likam, bingilila.
2 njalo khangela, olobulephero weza wamkhonza wathi: Nkosi, aluba uthanda ungangihlambulula.
Pe umuunhu jumonga unya buuba akiisa na kufughama pa Yesu, akam'buula akati, “Ghwe Mutwa, nave ukeliile kukumbalasia nisuuma umbalasie!”
3 UJesu waseselula isandla, wamthinta, wathi: Ngiyathanda, hlambuluka. Njalo ubulephero bakhe bahle bahlanjululwa.
UYesu akgholosia uluvoko, akamwabasia, akati, Nikeela, valala!” Unsiki ghughuo umuunhu jula, akavalala.
4 UJesu wasesithi kuye: Khangela ungatsheli muntu; kodwa hamba, uziveze kumpristi, unikele umnikelo uMozisi awulayayo, kube yibufakazi kubo.
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 Kwathi uJesu esengenile eKapenawume, kweza kuye induna yekhulu imncenga,
UYesu akaluta mu likaaja ilya Kapelenaumu. Ye ikwingila mu likaaja ililo, um'baha jumonga ughwa vasikali ava kilooma akiisa,
6 yasisithi: Nkosi, inceku yami ilele endlini yome umhlubulo, isebuhlungwini obukhulu.
akampelepesia akati, “Ghwe Mutwa, um'bombi ghwango ighona ku kaaja, ali ni nhamu ija liteela, ivavua kyongo,”
7 UJesu wasesithi kuye: Mina ngizakuza ngiyisilise.
UYesu akam'buula akati, “Nikwisa, ninsosie.”
8 Induna yekhulu yasiphendula yathi: Nkosi, kangifanele ukuthi ungene ngaphansi kophahla lwami; kodwa kuphela khuluma ilizwi, njalo inceku yami izasiliswa.
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 lami ngingumuntu ongaphansi kwamandla, ngilamabutho ngaphansi kwami; njalo ngithi kuleli: Hamba, beselihamba; lakwelinye: Woza, beselisiza; lencekwini yami: Yenza lokhu, njalo 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 Kwathi uJesu esezwile wamangala, wathi kwabalandelayo: Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Angitholanga ukholo olungaka ngitsho lakoIsrayeli.
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 Njalo ngithi kini: Abanengi bazakuza bevela empumalanga lentshonalanga, bahlale loAbrahama loIsaka loJakobe, embusweni wamazulu;
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 abantwana bombuso bazaphoselwa emnyameni ongaphandle; lapha kuzakuba khona ukukhala lokugedla amazinyo.
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, futhi kakube kuwe njengoba ukholiwe. Inceku yakhe yasisiliswa ngalelohola.
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 uJesu engene endlini kaPetro, wabona uninazala elele njalo ebulawa luqhuqho.
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 Wasebamba isandla sakhe, njalo uqhuqho lwamyekela; wasesukuma, wabancedisa.
Pe uYesu akamwabasia uluvoko, akasooka, akiima akategula kukuvatengelela.
16 Kwathi sekuhlwile baletha kuye abanengi ababengenwe ngamadimoni; wasekhupha omoya ngelizwi, 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 ukuze kugcwaliseke okwakhulunywa nguIsaya umprofethi ukuthi: Yena wathatha ubuthakathaka bethu, wazithwala izifo zethu.
Isio sikavombiike kukwilanisia sino silyajovilue nu m'bili uYesaya kuuti, “Akavusia inhamu siitu, akatusosia”
18 Kwathi uJesu ebona amaxuku amakhulu emhanqile, walaya ukuthi bachaphele ngaphetsheya.
ilipugha ilya vaanhu likansyungutila uYesu. UYesu ye aluvwene uluo, akavavuula avavulanisivua vaake kuuti valovoke valute imwambo jila.
19 Kwasekusondela umbhali othile wathi kuye: Mfundisi, ngizakulandela loba kungaphi lapho oya khona.
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 wasesithi kuye: Amakhanka alemilindi, lenyoni zezulu izidleke; kodwa iNdodana yomuntu kayila lapho engaqamelisa ikhanda khona.
UYesu akati, “Ing'heve sili ni mhanga, injuni sili ni fivwasu, neke ne Mwana ghwa Muunhu nili nsila nambe apa kughona!”
21 Omunye wabafundi bakhe wasesithi kuye: Nkosi, ngivumela ukuthi ngiqale ngiyengcwaba ubaba.
Pambele, jumonga mu vavulanisivua vaake akam'buula akati, Ghwe Mutwa, unhavule nulute taasi ninsyile unhaata ghwango.”
22 Kodwa uJesu wathi kuye: Ngilandela, uyekele abafileyo bangcwabe ababo abafileyo.
Neke uYesu akam'buula akati, “Umbingililaghe! Valeke avafue vavasyile avafue avaave.”
23 Kwathi esengenile emkhunjini, abafundi bakhe bamlandela.
Pe uYesu akingila mu ngalava, voope avavunisiavua vaake vakingila mula, vakavuuka viluta.
24 Njalo khangela, kwavuka isiphepho esikhulu olwandle, okungangokuthi umkhumbi wagutshuzelwa ngamagagasi; kodwa yena wayelele.
Ye vali mu lisumbe, nakalingi imhepo imbaha jikagugula, amavingo amavaha ghakatengula kukupikila ingalava jila. Unsiki ughuo UYesu akaghoneliile.
25 Basebesondela abafundi bakhe bamvusa, besithi: Nkosi, sisindise, siyabhubha!
Avavulanisivua vaake vakaluta pa mwene vakansisimula, vakati, Mutwa, utupoke! Tufua!”
26 Wasesithi kubo: Lesabelani, lina abokholo oluncinyane? Wasesukuma wakhuza imimoya lolwandle; kwasekusiba khona ukuthula okukhulu.
UYesu akavamula akati, “kiki muli voghofi, mwe vanya lwitiko ludebe umue? Pe akiima, akajidalikila imhepo nilisumbe, kukalitamalwoni.
27 Kodwa abantu bamangala, besithi: Ngonjani lo, ukuthi lemimoya lolwandle kumlalele?
Avavulanisivua vaake vakadegha kyongo vakati, “Uju ghwe veeni juno imhepo na mavingo fikumpulika?”
28 Kwathi esefikile ngaphetsheya elizweni lamaGergesi, bamhlangabeza ababili ababengenwe ngamadimoni bephuma emangcwabeni, belolaka kakhulu, okungangokuthi kwakungekho odlula 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 njalo khangela, bamemeza besithi: Silani lawe, Jesu, Ndodana kaNkulunkulu? Uze lapha yini ukusihlupha kungakafiki isikhathi?
Avaanhu avuo vakakoola fiijo vakati, “Ghwe Mwana ghwa Nguluve, tuli vuki nuuve? Ghwisile kuno kukutupumsia pano unsiki ghwitu ghukyale?”
30 Kwakukhona khatshana labo umhlambi wengulube ezinengi usidla.
Pa vutali padebe pwelilyale ilipugha ilya ngube, lidimua.
31 Amadimoni asemncenga, esithi: Uba usikhupha, sivumela ukuthi sihambe singene emhlanjini wengulube.
Pe amapepo ghala ghakampelepesia uYesu, ghakati, “Nave ukutudaga, utwitikisie tulute, twingile mu lipugha lila ilya ngube.
32 Wasesithi kuwo: Hambani. Esephumile angena emhlanjini wengulube; futhi khangela, umhlambi wonke wengulube waphaphatheka eliweni usiya olwandle, zafela 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 Abazelusayo basebebaleka, basebesiya emzini babika konke, lezindaba zababengenwe ngamadimoni.
Avadiimi va ngube vakakimbila luvilo, vakaluta mu likaaja, vakapanga sooni sino sivombiike, palikimo na sino sihumiile ku vanya mapepo vala.
34 Njalo khangela, umuzi wonke waphuma ukumhlangabeza uJesu; bathi bembona, bancenga ukuthi asuke emikhawulweni yakibo.
Avaanhu vooi ava likaaja ilio vakahuma, vakuluta kwa Yesu. Ye vamwaghile, vakampelepesia avuuke mu iisi jaave.
