UMATEWU 14:22-36 XHO96

Kwangoko ke uYesu wabanyanzela abafundi bakhe ukuba bakhwele esikhitshaneni, bamandulele baye ngaphesheya koLwandle lwaseGalili, ngeli xa yena asindululayo isihlwele. Akuba ke esindulule isihlwele, wenyuka intaba eyedwa, esiya kuthandaza. Kwahlwa eyedwa khona apho. Ngelo xesha isikhitshana sasesiphakathi elwandle, sintlithwa ngamaza, kuba umoya wawuvela ngaphambili. Kwathi ke, kungekasi, uYesu weza kubo, ehamba phezu kwamanzi olwandle. Abafundi bakumbona ehamba phezu kwamanzi, bankwantya, bathi: “Ngumhlola lo!” Batsho bakhala kukoyika. Kwangoko ke wathetha nabo uYesu, esithi: “Yomelelani; ndim; musani ukoyika.” Wavakala uPetros esithi: “Nkosi, ukuba ngaba nguwe ngenene, yitsho ndize kuwe ndihamba phezu kwamanzi.” UYesu wathi: “Yiza.” Wehla ke esikhitshaneni uPetros, wahamba phezu kwamanzi, waya kuYesu. Kodwa akuva amandla omoya, usuke woyika, wathi, esaqala ukutshona, wakhala esithi: “Nkosi, ndisindise!” Kwangoko uYesu wasolula isandla sakhe, wambamba, wathi: “Wena ulukholo luncinane, bekutheni na ukuba uthandabuze?” Bakhwela ke esikhitshaneni, wadamba umoya; baza abo basesikhitshaneni baqubuda kuYesu, besithi: “Inene, ùnguNyana kaThixo.” Beluwelile uLwandle lwaseGalili, bâfika ezweni laseGenesarete. Amqonda amadoda alapho ukuba nguYesu, athumela kuwo wonke loo mmandla, azisa kuye bonke abagulayo, ambongoza okokuba abagulayo bachukumise nokuba ngumqukumbelo nje wesambatho sakhe. Bathi ke abo bawuchukumisáyo baphila mpela.
