Ukubizwa kwabafundi bokuqala
(Mat 4:18-22; Marko 1:16-20)
1Ke kaloku uYesu xa wayemi ngakuLwandle lwaseGenesarete, izihlwele zimxinile, zisiza kuva ilizwi likaThixo, 2wabona izikhitshana ezibini ziselunxwemeni. Abalobi babephumile kuzo, behlamba iminatha. 3Wathi ke, engene kwesinye isikhitshana esasisesikaSimon, wamcela ukuba akhe ashenxe kancinane elunxwemeni. UYesu ke wazifundisa izihlwele ehleli esikhitshaneni.
4Akugqiba ukuthetha, wathi kuSimon: “Yiyani phakathi enzulwini, nihlise iminatha yenu, nibambise.”
5Waphendula uSimon wathi kuye: “Mhlekazi, sibulaleke ubusuku bonke, asabamba nento le; kodwa ngokutsho kwakho ndiya kuwuhlisa umnatha.” 6Bathi bakwenjenjalo, babambisa inkitha yeentlanzi, kangangokuba waphants' ukuqhaqheka umnatha wabo. 7Baza bakhweba abalingane babo ababekwesinye isikhitshana, ukuba beze kubancedisa. Beza ke, bazizalisa zozibini izikhitshana, zada zaphants' ukutshona. 8Ekubonile okwenzekileyo, uPetros waguqa phambi koYesu, wathi: “Mka kum, Nkosi, kuba ndiyindoda engumoni.”
9Yena nabo bonke ababenaye babemangalisiwe lolo banjiso lungako lweentlanzi. 10Babemangalisiwe noYakobi noYohane, oonyana bakaZebhedi, ababengabalingane bakaSimon. UYesu ke wathi kuSimon: “Ungoyiki. Ukususela namhlanje uya kuba ngumlobi wabantu.”
11Bakuba ke bezitsalele elunxwemeni izikhitshana, bashiya into yonke, balandela uYesu.
Ukuphiliswa koneqhenqa
(Mat 8:1-4; Marko 1:40-45)
12Kwathi uYesu ekwidolophu ethile kwafika indoda ithe gqume liqhenqa. Le ndoda ke, yakumbona uYesu, yawa ngobuso phambi kwakhe, yambongoza isithi: “Nkosi, ndiyazi ukuba unako ukundihlambulula, ukuba uyathanda.”
13Wasolula uYesu isandla, wayichukumisa, esithi: “Ndiyathanda; hlambuluka.” Kwangoko laphela kuyo iqhenqa. 14UYesu ke wayiyala esithi mayingaxeleli bani, waza wathi: “Hamba uye kuzibonisa kumbingeleli, wenze umnikelo ngezo zinto wazimiselayo uMosis, ube bubungqina bokuhlanjululwa kwakho.”
15Kwaba kukhona ke uYesu angundabamlonyeni; kwaza kwabuthelana isihlwele esikhulu, sisiza kumphulaphula nokuphiliswa nguye kwizifo ngezifo. 16Ke yena uYesu wayemana ukuya esiguqweni ngasese, athandaze.
Ukuphiliswa kofe umzimba
(Mat 9:1-8; Marko 2:1-12)
17Kwathi ngamini ithile uYesu efundisa, kwafika *abaFarasi nabachazi-mthetho, bephuma kuzo zonke iindolophu zelaseGalili nelakwaJuda, naseJerusalem. Amandla eNkosi ayekho kuye, ephilisa. 18Nako ke kufika amadoda ethwele ngokhuko umntu ofe umzimba, efuna ukumngenisa endlwini, ambeke phambi koYesu. 19Exakiwe kukumngenisa ngenxa yokuxinana kwesihlwele, akhwela phezu kwendlu, aqhaqha uphahla, amhlisa ngokhuko, ambeka phakathi, phambi koYesu. 20Akulubona uYesu ukholo lwawo, wathi kofe umzimba: “Mfondini, izono zakho zixolelwe.”
21Baza abachazi-mthetho nabaFarasi bathetha bodwa besithi: “Yini na ukuba lo mntu anyelise ngolu hlobo? Ngubani kakade onako ukuxolela izono ngaphandle koThixo?”
22UYesu ke, ezazi iingcamango zabo, wabaphendula wathi kubo: “Yini na ukuba nibe nezi ngcamango ezintliziyweni zenu? 23Okukona kulula kukuphi? Kukho ukuthi: ‘Izono zakho zixololwe,’ kukho nokuthi: ‘Vuka uhambe’? 24Ke ukuze nazi ukuba yena *uNyana woLuntu unalo igunya lokuxolela izono emhlabeni apha – úthi kofe umzimba – ndithi kuwe: ‘Vuka, uthathe ukhuko lwakho, uhambe ugoduke!’ ”
25Waphakama kwangoko bemjongile, waluthatha ukhuko abelele kulo, wagoduka ebulela uThixo. 26Bamangaliswa ke bonke, bamdumisa uThixo, besoyika kakhulu, besithi: “Sibone umhlola namhlanje.”
Ukubizwa kukaLevi
(Mat 9:9-13; Marko 2:13-17)
27Emva koko uYesu waphuma, waza wabona umqokeleli-rhafu, ogama linguLevi, ehleli eofisini yerhafu; wathi kuye: “Ndilandele.” 28Washiya konke ke, wamlandela.
29ULevi ke wamenzela isidlo esikhulu uYesu endlwini yakhe. Kweso sidlo kwakukho iqela elikhulu labaqokeleli-rhafu nabanye abantu. 30Ke *abaFarasi nabachazi-mthetho babebakrokrela abafundi bakaYesu, besithi: “Yini na ukuba nitye nisele kunye nabaqokeleli-rhafu *naboni?”
31Wabaphendula uYesu esithi: “Ugqirha akafuneki nganto kwabaphilileyo, ufuneka kwabagulayo. 32Andizanga kubiza malungisa, ndize kubiza aboni, ukuba baguquke.”
Ukuzila ukutya
(Mat 9:14-17; Marko 2:18-22)
33Ke kaloku abantu abathile bathi kuYesu: “Kutheni na ukuba abafundi bakaYohane *nababaFarasi basoloko bezila ukutya, bethandaza, kanti bona abakho bayatya basele?”
34UYesu ke wathi kubo: “Ngaba abakhaphi bomyeni ninokubazilisa na ukutya umyeni esenabo? 35Hayi, kodwa yofika yona imini yokuba umyeni asuswe kubo. Ngaloo mini ke baya kukuzila ukutya.”
36Ke kaloku uYesu wathetha umzekeliso kubo, esithi: “Akukho mntu uthatha isiziba kwisambatho esitsha asithungele kwesidala, hleze asonakalise isambatho esitsha, sibe isiziba eso singasilungeli nesidala. 37Kananjalo akukho mntu uyitha kwiimvaba ezindala iwayini entsha engekabili; kuba, ukuba uthe wenjenjalo, iwayini leyo yobila, izigqabhuze iimvaba, ichitheke, zonakale nezo mvaba. 38Iwayini engekabili mayithiwe kwiimvaba ezintsha. 39Kananjalo akukho mntu uthi, esele iwayini endala, athande nengekatsali, kuba uthi: ‘Endala inencasa!’ ”
