9 UJesu wathi kibo: “Ngiqinisile ngithi kini kunabanye abajame lapha abangekhe bafe bangakawuboni umBuso kaZimu sewufike ngamandla.”+
2 Ngemva kwamalanga asithandathu, uJesu wathatha uPitrosi, uJakopo noJwanisi bakhuphukela entabeni ede babodwa. UJesu watjhuguluka phambi kwabo;+
3 izambatho zakhe zathoma ukumanyazela, zaba mhlophe twa! Ukudlula indlela nanyana ngimuphi umhlanzi wezambatho ephasini egade angazenza zibe mhlophe ngayo.
4 Godu, kwabonakala u-Eliya noMosi bakhuluma noJesu.
5 UPitrosi wathi kuJesu: “Rabi, kuhle ngathi ukuba lapha. Nje-ke sivumela sihlome amatende amathathu, elinye kube ngelakho, elinye kube ngelakaMosi bese elinye kube ngelaka-Eliya.”
6 Eqinisweni, uPitrosi bekangazi ukuthi angathini ngombana bebathukwe khulu.
7 Kwavela ilifu, labasibekela, kwazwakala ilizwi+ elifini lithi: “Le yiNdodanami, engiyithandako.+ Yilaleleni.”+
8 Ngemva kwalokho, bathalaza babona ukuthi akusenamuntu ngaphandle kwabo noJesu.
9 Njengombana behla entabeni, uJesu wabatjela indlebe ukuzwa bona bangatjeli muntu ngalokho abakubonileko+ bekube kulapho iNdodana yomuntu seyivukile kwabafileko.+
10 Yeke ilizwelo balibeka ehliziyweni* kodwana babonisana bodwa ukuthi ukuvuswokhu kwabahlongakeleko kutjho ukuthini.
11 Bathoma ukumbuza, bathi: “Kubayini abatloli bathi u-Eliya+ kufuze eze qangi?”+
12 Wathi kibo: “Nangambala u-Eliya uza qangi abuyisele zoke izinto esigeni;+ kodwana kuza njani kutlolwe ngeNdodana yomuntu bona izakutlhaga khulu beyininwe na?+
13 Kodwana ngithi kini u-Eliya,+ kuhlekuhle, weza, bazenzela umathanda ngaye njengombana kutloliwe ngaye.”+
14 Kuthe nabafika kwabanye abafundi, babona isiqubuthu esikhulu sibabungelele, lapho bekunabatloli baphikisana nabo.+
15 Kodwana msinyana soke isiqubuthu sithe nasimbonako, sarareka khulu, sagijimela kuye bona siyomlotjhisa.
16 Ngalokho wababuza: “Niphikisana ngani nabo?”
17 Omunye esiqubuthwini wamphendula wathi: “Mfundisi, ngilethe indodanami kuwe ngombana inommoya oyenza ingakghoni ukukhuluma.+
18 Uthi nawuyibambako, uyidule phasi, ibhubhudlhe amagwebu, iququde amazinyo beyiphelelwe mamandla. Ngibawe abafundi bakho bona bawukhuphe kodwana babhalelwe.”
19 Wathi kibo: “Maye! Sizukulwana esingakholwako,+ kuzabe kube kunini nginani? Kufuze nginibekezelele isikhathi esingangani? Mletheni kimapha.”+
20 Baletha umsana loyo kuye kodwana kuthe ummoya nawubona uJesu, wabhudabhuda umsana. Ngemva kokumdula phasi, wasolo agedeka phasi, abhubhudlha amagwebu.
21 UJesu wabuza uyise womsana wathi: “Sekusikhathi esingangani lokhu kwenzeka?” Wathi: “Kusukela ebuntwaneni bakhe,
22 sekukanengi umlahlela emlilweni nemanzini ufuna ukumbulala. Kodwana nawungakghona ukumlapha, sibawa usirhawukele, usisize.”
23 UJesu wathi kuye: “Kubayini uthi, ‘Nawungakghona’? Ngombana zoke izinto ziyenzeka emuntwini okholwako.”+
24 Msinyana uyise womntwana warhuwelela wathi: “Ngiyakholwa! Ngisiza lapha ngitlhoga khona ukukholwa!”+
25 UJesu, abona ukuthi isiqubuthu sigijimela ngakibo, wakhalima ummoya omumbi, wathi kiwo: “Wena mmoya omenza angakghoni ukukhuluma begodu angezwa, ngikuyala bona uphume kuye, ungasangeni kuye godu!”+
26 Ngemva kokurhuwelela nokubhudabhudeka kanengi, waphuma, umntwana wabonakala ngasuthi uhlongakele, kangangobana abantu abanengi bebathi: “Uhlongakele!”
27 Kodwana uJesu wambamba ngesandla wamvusa, wajama ngeenyawo.
28 Wangena ngendlini, abafundi bakhe bambuza ngemsitheleni bathi: “Kubayini thina sibhalelwe kuwuqotha?”+
29 Wathi kibo: “Umhlobo lo ungaphuma kwaphela ngomthandazo.”
30 Basuka lapho badlula ngeGalile kodwana akhenge afune abantu bazi ngakho.
31 Ngombana bekafundisa abafundi bakhe athi kibo: “INdodana yomuntu izokukghatjhelwa ezandleni zabantu, bazoyibulala,+ naphezu kokubulawa, izokuvuswa ngemva kwamalanga amathathu.”+
32 Nokho, akhenge bawazwisise amezwakhe, basaba nokumbuza.
33 Bafika eKapernawumi. Kuthe nabangendlini, wababuza: “Beniphikisana ngani endleleni?”+
34 Bathula ngombana endleleni bebaphikisana ngokuthi ngubani omkhulu phakathi kwabo.
35 Wahlala phasi wabiza abaliTjhumi namBili wathi kibo: “Nanyana ngubani ofuna ukuba ngewokuthoma, kufuze abe ngewokugcina kikho koke begodu abe sisebenzi sabo boke.”+
36 Ngalokho wabiza umntwana wamjamisa phambi kwabo; wamsingatha, wathi kibo:
37 “Nanyana ngubani owamukela munye wabantwana abanjengalo+ ngebanga legama lami, uyangamukela nami nanyana ngubani ongamukelako akamukeli mina kwaphela kodwana wamukela naloyo ongithumileko.”+
38 UJwanisi wathi kuye: “Mfundisi, sibone umuntu aqotha amadimoni ngegama lakho, silinge ukumvimba ngombana bekangasimlandelethu.”+
39 Kodwana uJesu wathi: “Ningalingi ukumvimba ngombana akunamuntu ongenza imisebenzi yamandla ngegama lami ongajika msinyana angithuke.
40 Ngombana nanyana ngubani ongaphikisani nathi, ungakithi.+
41 Nanyana ngubani oninikela ikapho yamanzi bona nisele ngombana ningebakaKrestu,+ ngiqinisile ngithi kini, angekhe alahlekelwe mvuzwakhe.+
42 Kodwana nanyana ngubani owisa omunye wabancanaba abakholwako, kuzokuba ngcono ngaye bona kubotjhelwe entanyenakhe ilitje lokusila elizombeleziswa ngudumbana bese aphoselwe ngelwandle.+
43 “Nangabe isandla sakho sikwenza wone, siqunte. Kungcono ukungena ekuphileni urholophele kunokobana ungene eGehena* emlilweni ongapheliko unezandla zombili.+
44 *——
45 Nangabe inyawo lakho likwenza wone, liqunte. Kungcono ungene ekuphileni usirhole kunokobana uphoselwe eGehena* uneenyawo ezimbili.+
46 *——
47 Nangabe ilihlo lakho likwenza wone, likhuphe ulilahle.+ Kungcono ukungena emBusweni kaZimu unelihlo linye kunokobana uphoselwe eGehena* unamehlo womabili,+
48 lapho isibungu singafi khona nalapho umlilo ungacimi khona.+
49 “Woke umuntu kufuze afufuzelwe ngetswayi lomlilo.+
50 Itswayi lilungile kodwana nangabe liphelelwa butswayi balo, uzolinunga ngani?+ Yibani netswayi kini+ begodu nihlale ninokuthula komunye nomunye.”+
