Ummangaliso wobanjiso olukhulu lweentlanzi. Abafundi bokuqala
1Ke kaloku kuthe, ekubeni zimxinile izihlwele, ziza kuva ilizwi likaThixo, wesuka wema ngasedikeni laseGenesarete. 2Wabona imikhombe emibini imi ngasedikeni apho; babe ke ababambisi beentlanzi bephumile kuyo, behlamba iminatha yabo. 3Wathi ke, engene komnye umkhombe, owawungokaSimon, wamcela ukuba akhe akhwelelise kancinane emhlabeni; waza, ehleli phantsi, wamana ezifundisa izihlwele esemkhombeni apho.
4Akupheza ke ukuthetha, wathi kuSimon, Khwelelisela enzulwini, nihlise iminatha yenu, kubanjiswe. 5Waphendula uSimon wathi kuye, Mongameli, sibulaleke ubusuku buphela, asabamba nento; kodwa ngelakho ilizwi ndiya kuwuhlisa umnatha. 6Bathi, bakukwenza oko, bavingcela inkitha enkulu yeentlanzi; wawuqhaqheka ke umnatha wabo. 7Bakhoba amahlulelana abo, abekomnye umkhombe, ukuba eze kuncedisana nabo. Beza, bayizalisa imikhombe yomibini, yada yafuna ukutshona.
8Uthe ke akukubona oko uSimon Petros, wawa emadolweni kaYesu, esithi, Mka kum, ngokuba ndiyindoda engumoni, Nkosi. 9Kuba wathi makatha, kwanabo bonke ababenaye, ngobanjiso lweentlanzi ezo bazibambisáyo. 10Baba kwanjalo ke noYakobi noYohane, oonyana bakaZebhedi, ababengamadlelane noSimon.
UYesu wathi kuSimon, Musa ukoyika; uya kuthabathela kweli xesha ubambisa abantu. 11Bakuyifikisa imikhombe emhlabeni, bashiya into yonke, bamlandela.
Ukuphiliswa koneqhenqa
(UMat. 8:1-4)
12Kwathi ekomnye umzi, babona ngendoda ezele liqhenqa; yathi yakumbona uYesu, yawa ngobuso, yamkhunga, isithi, Nkosi, ukuba uyathanda, unako ukundihlambulula. 13Wasolula isandla, wayichukumisa, esithi, Nbiyathanda, hlambuluka. Lathi kwaoko iqhenqa lemka kuyo.
14Wayithethela yena ngelithi, mayingaxeleli bani. Wathi, Yiya kuzibonisa kumbingeleli, usondeze idini, ngenxa yokuhlanjululwa kwakho, njengoko wamisayo uMoses, kube bubungqina kubo. 15Kwaba kukhona ke luhlakazekayo udaba ngaye; kwaye kubuthelana izihlwele ezikhulu ukuza kuphulaphula, nokuphiliswa nguye ebulwelweni bazo. 16Waye ke yena emana ukuzisithelisa ezindaweni eziziintlango, athandaze.
Ukuphiliswa konedumbe
(UMat. 9:1-8)
17Kwathi ke ngamini ithile wafundisa. Kwaye kuhleli abaFarisi nabafundisimthetho, ababephume kuyo yonke imizana yelaseGalili, neyelakwaYuda, naseYerusalem; aye ekho amandla eNkosi ukuba abaphilise.
18Kwabonakala amadoda ethwele ngokhuko umntu onedumbe; ayefuna ukumngenisa, ambeke phambi kwakhe. 19Athi, akuba engafumani ndawo angamngenisa ngayo ngenxa yesihlwele, akhwela phezu kwendlu, agqobhoza ezifulelweni, amhlisa ndawonye nokhuko, ambeka phakathi, phambi koYesu. 20Akulubona ke ukholo lwawo, wathi kuye, Mntundini, ùzixolelwe izono zakho. 21Baqala ukucamanga ababhali nabaFarisi, besithi, Ngubani na lo uthetha izinyeliso? Ngubani na onako ukuxolela izono, ingenguye uThixo yedwa?
22Eziqiqile ke uYesu izicamango zabo, waphendula wathi kubo, Nicamanga ntoni na ezintliziyweni zenu? 23Okhona kulula kukuphi na: kukho ukuthi, Ùzixolelwe izono zakho; kukho nokuthi, Vuka uhambe? 24Ke ukuze nazi, ukuba unalo igunya uNyana woMntu lokuxolela izono emhlabeni apha (selesithi konedumbe), ndithi kuwe, Vuka, uthabathe ukhuko lwakho, uye endlwini yakho. 25Usuke wema kwangoko phambi kwabo, wayithabatha loo nto abelele kuyo, wemka waya endlwini yakhe, ezukisa uThixo. 26Besuka bathi nqa bonke, bamzukisa uThixo, bazala kukoyika, besithi, Sibone izanga namhlanje.
Ukubizwa kukaLevi
(UMat. 9:9-13)
27Ke kaloku, emveni kwezi zinto waphuma, wabona umbuthi werhafu, ogama linguLevi, ehleli endaweni yerhafu, wathi kuye, Ndilandele. 28Washiya konke, wesuka wamlandela. 29Waza uLevi wamenzela isidlo esikhulu endlwini yakhe. Kwaye kukho iqela elikhulu lababuthi berhafu nelabanye, ababehleli ngasesithebeni nabo.
30Baye ababhali babo nabaFarisi bebakrokrela abafundi bakhe, besithi, Kungani na ukuba nidle nisele nababuthi berhafu naboni? 31Waphendula uYesu wathi kubo, Akufuneki gqirha kwabaphilileyo, lifuneka kwabafayo. 32Andizé kubiza malungisa, ndize kubiza aboni, ukuba baguquke.
Ukuzila ukudla
(UMat. 9:14-17)
33Ke kaloku bathi kuye, Kungani na ukuba abafundi bakaYohane bazile ukudla futhi, benze nezikhungo; benjenjalo nababaFarisi; kanti ke bona abakho bayadla basele? 34Wathi ke kubo, Ninako yini na ukubazilisa ukudla abegumbi lomtshakazi, xa asenabo umyeni? 35Kodwa kofika mihla awoza asuswe kubo umyeni, bandule ke ukuzila ngaloo mihla.
36Ke kaloku wabethetha nomzekeliso kubo esithi, Akukho ubeka isiziba sengubo entsha engutyeni endala; okanye wóba ukrazula leyo intsha, sithi nesiziba eso sentsha singavumani nendala. 37Kanjalo akukho utha iwayini entsha ezintsubeni ezindala; okanye yozigqabhuza iintsuba iwayini entsha, iphalale yona, zitshabalale neentsuba. 38Yona iwayini entsha ifanele ukuthiwa ezintsubeni ezintsha zigcinakale ezo zinto zombini. 39Kanjalo akukho uthi, ebesele endala, athande entsha kwaoko; ngokuba uthi, Endala yeyona inencasa.
