1Yeke uJesu watjela abafundi bakhe umfanekiso abakhombisa bonyana bafanele bahlale bathandaza njalo bangapheli amandla.

2Wathi: “Emzini othileko bekunomgwebi obegade angesabi uZimu, anganandaba nabanye abantu.

3Godu khona emzini loyo bekunomhlolokazi obekaphele aye kuye ayokubawa isizo athi, ‘Yewungihlambulule kumjamelanami!’

4Kwaba sikhathi eside alokhu angafuni. Kodwana ekugcineni wazitjela wathi, ‘Ngitjho nanyana ngingamesabi uZimu namkha nginganandaba nabanye abantu,

5kodwana ngombana nakhu umhlolokazi lo uhlalele ukungifundekela, ngizakwenza bonyana afumane ubulungiswa ukuze angasangikhathaza ngokuza kwakhe lapha.’ ”

6IKosi yaraga yathi: “Yizwani bona umgwebi ongakalungi uthini.

7Alo, nithi uZimu angeze abazwela abakhethiweko bakhe, abalilela kuye imini nobusuku na? Uzalokhu abaphayela ngeqadi na?

8Ngiyanitjela bona uzobazwela msinyana. Nokho-ke nitjho bona iNdodana yoMuntu mhla ibuyako izakufumana ukukholwa ephasinapha na?”

9Godu wakhuluma umfanekiso lo kilabo ebebazethemba ngokulunga kwabo, banyaza boke abanye, wathi:

10“Abantu ababili benyukela ethempelini ukuyokuthandaza. Omunye bekumFarisi, omunye kumthelisi.

11“UmFarisi wajama, wazithandazela wathi, ‘Zimu, ngiyakuthokoza ngombana mina angifani nabanye abantu: ababadlelezeli, abenzi bokumbi, iinhlobongi ngitjho naye umthelisi olapha lo.

12Ngizila ukudla kabili ngeveke, ngikhupha umnikelo wokwetjhumi kwakho koke engikuzuzako.’

13“Kodwana umthelisi wajamela kudanyana. Wahlulwa ngitjho nakuqala ezulwini, kodwana wabetha isandla phezu kwesinye wathi, ‘Zimu, ngirhawukele, mina soni!’ ”

14UJesu wathi: “Ngiyanitjela bona umthelisi wabuyela ekhaya alungisisiwe phambi kwakaZimu kunomFarisi ngombana nanyana ngubani oziphakamisako uzakwehliswa, nozithobako uzakuphakanyiswa.”

15Abantu baletha abantwana kuJesu kobana abathinte. Kwathi lokha abafundi bakhe nababona lokho, babakhalimela.

16Kodwana uJesu wabizela abantwana kuye wathi: “Lisani abantwana beze kimi ningabakhandeli ngombana umbuso kaZimu ungewabanjalo.

17Ngiqinisile ngiyanitjela bona nanyana ngubani ongekhe amukela umbuso kaZimu njengomntwana, angekhe angena kiwo.”

18Umbusi othileko wambuza wathi: “Mfundisi olungileko, ngingenza njani ukuze ngizuze ukuphila okungapheliko na?”

19UJesu wathi: “Kubayini ungibize ngolungileko na? Akakho noyedwa olungileko ngaphandle kwakaZimu kwaphela.

20Uyayazi imiyalo, ‘Ungahlobongi, ungabulali, ungebi, ungafakazi amanga, hlonipha uyihlo nonyoko.’ ”

21Umbusi loyo wathi: “Koke lokho bengiseze ngikwenza kusukela ngisesemsana.”

22Kwathi bona uJesu ezwe lokho, wathi: “Kusasele into eyodwa ekufanele uyenze. Thengisa koke onakho, wabele abatlhagileko, nje-ke uzakuba namagugu ezulwini. Ngemva kwalapho-ke ungilandele.”

23Kwathi bona ezwe lokho, watlhuwa khulu ngombana bekasikhumkani samambala.

24UJesu wamqala wathi kuye: “Kubudisi kangangani bona abantu abaziinkhumkani bangene embusweni kaZimu!

25Ngambala kulula bona uzilume indololwani kunobana isikhumkani singene embusweni kaZimu.”

26Abantu abamzwako bambuza-ke bathi: “Alo, ngubani-ke ongasindiswa na?”

27UJesu wabaphendula wathi: “Lokho okungenzekiko ebantwini kuyenzeka kuZimu.”

28UPitrosi wathi kuye: “Qala, sitjhiye koke esinakho bona sikulandele!”

29UJesu wathi kibo: “Ngiqinisile ngiyanitjela bona akakho noyedwa otjhiye ikhaya lakhe namkha umkakhe, abafowabo, ababelethi bakhe nabantwabakhe ngebanga lombuso kaZimu,

30ozakubhalelwa kuzuza ipilo engapheliko ngokubuyelelwe kanengi esikhathinesi, nesikhathini esizako.”

31UJesu wabizela abafundi bakhe ngeqadi wathi kibo: “Sizokwenyukela eJerusalema, lapho koke okutlolwe baphorofidi ngeNdodana yoMuntu kuzakuzaliseka khona.

32Izakunikelwa kwabatjhili. Bazayiphoqa, bayithuke, bayikhafulele ngamathe, bayimadlhe bebayibulale.

33Ngelanga lesithathu izakuvuka godu.”

34Kodwana abafundi bakhe akhange bazwisise nakunye kwalokho. Begade kufihlakele kibo bebangazi bonyana ukhuluma ngani.

35Bekunesiphofu ebesihlezi ngeqadi kwendlela sikhombela lokha uJesu natjhidela eJerikho.

36Kwathi nasizwa isiqubuthu sidlula, sabuza bona kwenzekani.

37Basitjela bathi: “UJesu weNazaretha uyadlula.”

38Sarhuwelela sathi: “Jesu, Ndodana kaDavida, ngirhawukela!”

39Abantu ebebaphambi kwaso basikhalimela bathi asithule. Kodwana sarhuwelela khulu, sathi: “Ndodana kaDavida, ngirhawukela!”

40UJesu wajama, wathi abasilethe kuye. Kwathi nasitjhidelako, uJesu wasibuza wathi:

41“Ufuna ngikwenzeleni na?” Samphendula sathi: “Kosi, ngifuna ukubona.”

42UJesu wathi kiso: “Bona! Ukukholwa kwakho kukusindisile.”

43Khonokho sabona, besalandela uJesu sithokoza uZimu. Kwathi lokha boke abantu nababona lokho, nabo badumisa uZimu.
