UJesu upholisa indoda egulako
1Ngelinye lamaSabatha lokha uJesu nayokugoma ngekumbeni yomFarisi odumileko, begade atjhejwe ngelihlo elibukhali. 2Lapho ngaphambi kwakhe bekunendoda ebegade iphethwe sisifo samanzi. 3UJesu wabuza abaFarisi nezazimthetho wathi: “Kumthetho ukupholisa ngeSabatha namkha njani na?”
4Kodwana bazithulela. Yeke uJesu wathatha indoda leyo, wayipholisa, wathi ikhambe. 5Yeke wababuza wathi: “Nakube omunye wenu unomntwana namkha ikomo ewele ngemgodini ngeSabatha, angekhe ayoyikhupha khonokho na?”
6Kodwana boke batlhoga umlomo.
Ukuzithoba nobuntu
7Kwathi uJesu nabona bonyana abamenywa bazikhethela iindawo ezihloniphekileko etafuleni, wabatjela umfanekiso lo: 8“Lokha omunye nakumemela emtjhadweni, ungahlali endaweni ehloniphekileko ngombana kungenzeka bona kukhona omenyiweko oqakatheke khulu kunawe. 9Kuthi kusesenjalo onimemileko, eze afese athi kuwe, ‘Akhe utjhidele umuntu lo esihlalweneso,’ yeke uzakuhlaziseka ukhambe uyokuhlala endaweni enyazekako. 10Kodwana nawumenyiweko, hlala endaweni enyazekako khona kuzakuthi okumemileko nezako, athi kuwe, ‘Mngani, yewenyukele endaweni engcono.’ Ngaleyondlela uzakuhlonitjhwa phakathi kwabo boke abamenyiweko. 11Ngambala woke oziphakamisako uzakuthotjiswa naloyo ozithobako uzakuphakanyiswa.”
12Yeke uJesu wathi komumemileko: “Lokha nawenza isidlo semini namkha sakusihlwa, ungamemi abangani bakho, abafowenu, iinhlobo zakho namkha abomakhelwana bakho abanjingileko ngombana nawenza njalo, nabo bazakumema ngaleyondlela uzakuvuzwa. 13Kodwana nawenza umnyanya, mema abadududu, abarholopheleko, abangakwazi ukukhamba neemphofu, 14khona-ke uzakubusiswa. Nanyana bangekhe bakuvuze, uzakuvuzwa ekuvusweni kwabalungileko.”
Umfanekiso ngomnyanya omkhulu
(Mt 22:1-10)
15Kwathi lokha omunye wabagade bahlezi naye etafuleni ezwe lokho, wathi kuJesu: “Ubusisiwe umuntu ozakugoma emnyanyeni embusweni kaZimu!”
16UJesu wathi kuye: “Umuntu othileko bekalungiselela umnyanya omkhulu, wamema nabantu abanengi. 17Ngesikhathi somnyanya, wathuma ikhoboka lakhe kobana liyokuthi kabamenyiweko, ‘Yizani, koke sekulungile!’ 18Kodwana ngokufanako, boke bathoma ukuzilandula. Wokuthoma wathi, ‘Ngiqeda ukuthenga isimu, yeke kumele ngiyoyibona. Uzangilibalela, angiphumeleli.’ 19Wesibili wathi, ‘Ngiqeda ukuthenga itjhumi leenkomo ezibotjhelwako, yeke ngisendleleni yokuzibona bona zidosa njani. Uzangilibalela, angiphumeleli.’ 20Khonapho omunye naye wathi, ‘Ngiqeda ukuthatha, ngaleyondlela angiphumeleli ukuza.’
21“Ikhoboka labuyela ekosinalo layokubika. Umninikhaya wathukuthela khulu, wayala ikhoboka lakhe wathi, ‘Phuma msinyana ungene eendledlaneni nemikghotheni yedorobho ubize abadududu, abarholopheleko, iimphofu neengoga.’ 22Ikhoboka lathi, ‘Kosami, ngiwuphethile umyalwakho, kodwana kusese nendawo.’ 23Yeke ikosi yathi ekhobokeni layo, ‘Phuma uye eendleleni nemikghotheni yemaphandleni, ubabize ukuze ikumbami igcwale. 24Ngiyanitjela bona akakho noyedwa kilabo abamenyiweko ozakufumana ukunandipha komnyanyami!’ ”
Ukuba mfundi kaJesu
(Mt 10:37-38)
25Isiqubuthu esikhulu besikhamba noJesu, khonapho waphendukela kiso wathi: 26“Nanyana ngubani oza kimi kodwana angazondi uyise nonina, umkakhe nabantwana, abafowabo nabodadwabo, ngitjho nepilwakhe, angeze aba mfundi wami. 27Nanyana ngubani ongatjathi isiphambano sakhe angilandele, angekhe aba mfundi wami.
28“Akhe sithi omunye wenu ufuna ukwakha umtlomogo. Akazokuhlala phasi ntange alinganise iindleko ukuze abone bonyana unemali eyaneleko yokuwakha bewuphele na? 29Ngambala nakube ubeka isisekelo kodwana angasakghona ukuqedelela, boke abakubonako lokho bazamphoqa 30bathi, ‘Umrhali lo uthome ukwakha, kodwana wangakghona ukuqeda!’
31“Namkha akhe sithi ikosi izilungiselela ukuya epini ukuyokulwa nenye ikosi. Ayizokuhlala phasi ntange bese icabangisise bona izakukghona ngamadoda aziinkulungwana ezilitjhumi ukujamelana nenamadoda aziinkulungwana ezimatjhumi amabili na? 32Nayingakghoniko, izakuthumela abazenda ekosini leyo isesekude, ikhombele bonyana kukhulunyiswane ngokuthula. 33Ngokunjalo-ke, nanyana ngubani wenu ongatjhiyi koke anakho angeze aba mfundi wami.”
Itswayi eliqwatjhileko
(Mt 5:13; Mk 9:50)
34“Itswayi lilungile, kodwana nasele liqwatjhile, lingavuselelwa njani na? 35Alikalungeli iqulwani ngitjho nanyana kungaba msuqwa, liyalahlwa. Oneendlebe zokuzwa akezwe.”
