UJesu Uphilisa Isiguli EBhethesda Ngesabatha
1Emva kwalokho kwaba khona umkhosi wabaJuda, uJesu wakhuphukela eJerusalema. 2Kwakukhona-ke eJerusalema, ngaseSangweni Lezimvu, ichibi ngesiHebheru elibizwa ngokuthi iBhethzatha, linemipheme emihlanu. 3Kwakulala kuyo izinkumbi zabagulayo: izimpumputhe, izinyonga, nabafe uhlangothi. Babelindele ukuzanyazanyiswa kwechibi. 4Ingelosi kaNkulunkulu yayehla ngezikhathi ezithile, ifike izamazamise ichibi, bese kuthi lowo ongene kuqala emva kokuzanyazanyiswa kwalo, asinde esifweni esimphetheyo, noma ngabe sifo sini. 5Kwakukhona lapho umuntu othile owayesegule iminyaka engama-38. 6UJesu embona elele lapho, futhi azi ukuthi sekuyisikhathi eside egula, wathi kuye: “Uyathanda yini ukusinda na?”
7Waphendula, wathi: “Nkosi, anginamuntu ongangifaka echibini lapho lizanyazanyiswa. Kuthi nje ngiseza kulo, ngidlulwe ngomunye, angene kuqala.”
8UJesu wathi kuye: “Sukuma, uthathe uhlaka lwakho, uhambe.”
9 Umuntu wasinda ngaleso sikhathi, wayesethatha uhlaka lwakhe, wahamba.
10 Ngakho-ke abaJuda bathi kulowo muntu owayesephilisiwe: “Yisabatha namuhla, akuvumelekile ukuba uthwale uhlaka lwakho.”
11Kepha waphendula, wathi: “Lowo ongiphilisileyo uthe kimi: ‘Thatha uhlaka lwakho uhambe.’ ”
12Bambuza bathi: “Ngubani lo muntu othe kuwe: ‘Thatha uhlaka lwakho uhambe’ na?”
13Kepha owayephilisiwe wayengazi ukuthi ungubani, ngokuba uJesu wayemonyukile, lokhu kwakukhona isixuku kuleyo ndawo.
14 Emva kwalokho uJesu wamfica lowo muntu ethempelini, wathi kuye: “Usuphilisiwe; ungabe usona, funa wehlelwe ngokubi kunalokhu.”
15Lowo muntu wahamba wayobikela abaJuda ukuthi nguJesu omphilisileyo.
16 AbaJuda bamzingela uJesu ngenxa yalokho, ngokuba wayenze lokho ngesabatha.
17UJesu wathi kubo: “UBaba uyasebenza kuze kube manje, nami-ke ngiyasebenza.”
18 Ngakho-ke ngenxa yalokhu, abaJuda babefuna kakhulu ukumbulala, ngokuba akephulanga nje isabatha, futhi wathi uNkulunkulu unguYise; ngaleyo ndlela ezenza olingana noNkulunkulu.
Igunya LeNdodana KaNkulunkulu
19 Ngakho-ke uJesu waphendula, wathi kubo: “Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile ngithi kini: iNdodana ingenze lutho ngokwayo, ngaphandle kwalokho ekubona kwenziwa nguYise, ngokuba lokho akwenzayo Yena, neNdodana iyakwenza kanjalo. 20 Ngokuba uYise uyayithanda iNdodana, uyikhombisa konke akwenzayo. Uyakuyikhombisa ngisho imisebenzi emikhulu kunale, ukuba nimangale. 21Njengalokhu uYise evusa abafileyo, abenze baphile, kanjalo neNdodana iyabaphilisa labo ethanda ukubaphilisa. 22 Ngokuba noYise akehluleli muntu, kodwa igunya lonke lokwehlulela ulinike iNdodana, 23 ukuze bonke bayihloniphe iNdodana njengalokhu behlonipha uYise. Ongayihloniphi iNdodana, kamhloniphi noYise oyithumileyo.
24“Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile ngithi kini: olizwayo izwi lami, akholwe ngongithumileyo, unokuphila okuphakade. Akayi ekwehlulelweni, kepha udlulisiwe ekufeni, wangena ekuphileni. 25 Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile ngithi kini: isikhathi siyeza, sesifikile namanje, lapho abafileyo beyakulizwa iphimbo leNdodana kaNkulunkulu; abalizwayo bayakuphila. 26 Njengalokhu uYise enokuphila ngokwakhe, kanjalo neNdodana uyiphile ukuba ibe nokuphila ngokwayo. 27 Uyinikile igunya lokwehlulela, ngokuba iyiNdodana yomuntu.
28 “Ningamangali ngalokho, ngokuba isikhathi siyeza lapho bonke abasemathuneni beyakulizwa iphimbo layo, 29 abenze okulungileyo baphumele ekuvukeni kokuphila; kuthi abenze okubi ekuvukeni kokulahlwa.”
Ubufakazi NgoJesu
30“Mina angenzi lutho ngokwami, ngehlulela njengokuba ngizwa, futhi ukwehlulela kwami kuqotho, ngokuba angifuni yona eyami intando, kodwa intando yongithumileyo.
31“Uma ngizifakazela Mina, ubufakazi bami abusilo iqiniso. 32Kepha kukhona omunye ofakaza ngami, futhi ngiyazi ukuthi ubufakazi abufakazile ngami buyiqiniso.
33 “Nina nathumela kuJohane, walifakazela iqiniso. 34Kepha Mina angemukeli ubufakazi kumuntu; lokhu ngikusho ukuze nisindiswe. 35 UJohane wayeyisibani esivuthayo nesikhanyisayo. Nina-ke nakhetha ukuzijabulisa okwesikhashana ekukhanyeni kwakhe.
36 “Kepha nginobufakazi obedlula obukaJohane, ngokuba imisebenzi uBaba anginike yona ukuba ngiyifeze, le misebenzi engiyenzayo, iyafakaza ngami ukuthi nguBaba ongithumileyo; 37 naye uBaba ongithumileyo uyifakazile ngami. Nina anikaze nilizwe iphimbo lakhe noma nibone isiqu sakhe. 38Nezwi lakhe alihlali kini, ngokuba animkholwa lowo amthumileyo. 39 Nihlola imibhalo ngokuba nicabanga ukuthi kuyo nizothola ukuphila okuphakade, kanti-ke yiyo efakaza ngami. 40Kepha anifuni ukuza kimi ukuze nibe nokuphila.
41“Mina angemukeli udumo kubantu, 42kodwa ngiyanazi nina ukuthi aninalo uthando lukaNkulunkulu kini. 43 Ngize egameni likaBaba, kepha aningemukeli; kodwa uma kuza omunye ezizela egameni lakhe, lowo niyakumemukela. 44 Pho ningakholwa kanjani nisadumisana nodwa, ningalufuni udumo oluvela kuNkulunkulu okunguye yedwa na?
45“Ningacabangi ukuthi ngiyonimangalela kuBaba, kukhona oyedwa onimangalelayo, nguMose lo enethembele kuye. 46 Ngokuba uma benikholwa nguMose, beniyakukholwa yiMina, ngokuba yena wabhala ngami. 47 Kodwa uma ningakholwanga yimibhalo yakhe, pho niyakukholwa kanjani ngamazwi ami na?”
