1Wayesebuye waqala ukufundisa ngaselwandle; kwabuthana kuye isixuku esikhulu, waze wangena emkhunjini, wahlala olwandle; isixuku sonke sasiphezu kolwandle emhlabathini.

2Wabafundisa izinto eziningi ngemifanekiso, wakhuluma kubo ekufundiseni kwakhe.

3Lalelani; Bheka, kwaphuma umhlwanyeli ukuyohlwanyela;

4Kwathi ekuhlanyeleni kwakhe, enye yawela ngasendleleni, kweza izinyoni zezulu, zayidla zayiqeda.

5Enye yawela edwaleni, lapho eyayingenamhlabathi omningi khona; yasihluma masinyane, ngoba yayingelakutshona komhlabathi;

6Kodwa seliphumile ilanga, lahangulwa; futhi ngenxa yokuthi yayingenampande, yabuna.

7Enye yawela phakathi kwameva, ameva akhula ayiminyanisa, kodwa ayizange ithele.

8Enye yawela emhlabathini omuhle, yathela isithelo, yakhula, yanda; yazala, enye ngamashumi amathathu, enye ngamashumi ayisithupha, enye ikhulu.

9Wasesithi kubo: Onezindlebe zokuzwa makezwe.

10Eseyedwa, ababemphahlile kanye nabayishumi nambili bambuza ngomfanekiso.

11Wathi kubo: “Nina niphiwe ukwazi imfihlakalo yombuso kaNkulunkulu;

12ukuze bebona babone, bangaboni; nokuzwa, bezwe, bangaqondi; funa noma nini baphenduke, bathethelelwe izono zabo.

13Wasesithi kubo: Kaliwazi yini lumfanekiso? Pho niyakuyazi kanjani imifanekiso yonke na?

14Umhlanyeli uhlanyela ilizwi.

15Laba ngasendleleni, lapho okuhlanyelwe khona ilizwi; kodwa nxa sebezwile, uSathane uyafika masinyane, alisuse izwi elihlwanyelwe ezinhliziyweni zabo.

16Kanjalo laba ngabahlwanyelwe edwaleni; abathi sebelizwile ilizwi, balamukele masinyane ngokuthokoza;

17njalo kabanampande phakathi kwabo, bahlala okwesikhathi; kuthi sekuvele ukuhlupheka kumbe ukuzingelwa ngenxa yelizwi, bahle bakhubeke.

18Laba yilabo abahlanyelwe emeveni; abalizwayo izwi,

19Kepha iminako yaleli zwe, nokukhohlisa kwengcebo, nezinkanuko zezinye izinto, kungena kuminyanise izwi, lingatheli.

20Laba yilabo abahlwanyelwe emhlabathini omuhle; abalizwayo izwi, balamukele, bathele isithelo, omunye ngamashumi amathathu, omunye ngamashumi ayisithupha, omunye ngekhulu.

21Wathi kubo: “Isibani siyalethwa ukuba sibekwe phansi kwesitsha noma ngaphansi kombhede na? futhi hhayi ukuthi ibekwe othini lwesibani?

22Ngokuba akukho okufihliweyo okungayikubonakaliswa; futhi akukho okufihliwe, ngaphandle kokuthi kuvele obala.

23Uma ekhona onezindlebe zokuzwa, makezwe.

24Wathi kubo: “Kuqapheleni enikuzwayo;

25Ngokuba onakho uyakuphiwa, kepha ongenakho uyakwamukwa nalokho anakho.

26Wathi: “Umbuso kaNkulunkulu unjengoba umuntu ephonsa inhlanyelo emhlabathini;

27Alale, avuke ubusuku nemini, imbewu ihlume, ikhule, yena engazi ukuthi kanjani.

28Ngokuba umhlabathi uthela isithelo ngokwawo; kuqala ikhaba, kulandele isikhwebu, bese kuba amabele agcwele esikhwebu;

29Kodwa nxa isithelo sesivuthiwe, alifake masinyane isikela, ngoba ukuvuna sekufikile.

30Wasesithi: Sizawufanisa lani umbuso kaNkulunkulu? kumbe singakufanisa ngamuphi umfanekiso?

31Kunjengohlamvu lwesinaphi, okuthi, nxa luhlwanyelwa emhlabathini, lube luncane kuzo zonke izimbewu ezisemhlabeni;

32Kepha nxa selihlwanyelwe, liyakhula, libe likhulu kunemibhida yonke, kwenze amagatsha amakhulu; ukuze izinyoni zezulu zihlale emthunzini wawo.

33Walikhuluma izwi kubo ngemifanekiso eminingi enjalo, njengokuzwa kwabo.

34Kepha akakhulumanga kubo ngaphandle komfanekiso; kepha sebebodwa wabachazela abafundi bakhe zonke izinto.

35Ngalolo suku sekuhlwile, wathi kubo: “Asiwele siye ngaphesheya.

36Sebemukisile isixuku, bamthatha esemkhunjini. Kwakukhona neminye imikhumbi emincane kanye naye.

37Kwavuka isivunguvungu esikhulu somoya, amaza ashaya umkhumbi, waze wasugcwele.

38Yena wayengemuva emkhunjini elele emqamelweni; bamvusa, bathi kuye: “Mfundisi, awukhathali ukuthi siyabhubha na?

39Wasevuka, wawukhuza umoya, wathi kulo ulwandle: Thula, uthi cwaka. Umoya wanqamuka, kwaba khona ukuthula okukhulu.

40Wathi kubo: “Nesabani kangaka na? Kanjani ukuba ningabi nalukholo?

41Basesaba ngokwesaba okukhulu, bathi omunye komunye: “Ubani lo, ukuthi nomoya nolwandle kumlalele?
