ukuvula amehlo ezimpumputhe,
ukuhlenga abacindezelweyo,
19 nokumemezela unyaka omuhle weNkosi.”
20Wawugoqa umqulu, wawunika isikhonzi, wahlala; amehlo wonke ababesesinagogeni amgqolozela. 21Waqala ukukhuluma kubo, ethi: “Namhlanje ugcwalisekile lo mbhalo njengoba nizwa ngezenu izindlebe.”

28Bonke ababesesinagogeni bagcwala intukuthelo enkulu lapho bekuzwa lokho. 29Basukuma, bamxosha emzini, bamqhubela esiweni esasisentabeni umuzi wabo owawakhiwe phezu kwayo, ukuze bamkhalakathelise kuso. 30Kepha Yena wadabula phakathi kwabo wahamba.

31Wehlela eKhaphernawume, umuzi iGalile. Wayebafundisa abantu kulusuku lwesabatha. 32 Bamangala ngokufundisa kwakhe, ngokuba izwi lakhe lalinegunya.
33Kwakukhona esinagogeni umuntu onomoya wedimoni elingcolileyo, wamemeza ngezwi elikhulu, wathi: 34“Habe, ufunani nje kithi Jesu waseNazaretha? Uze ukuzosibhubhisa yini na? Ngiyakwazi ukuthi ungubani: ungoNgcwele kaNkulunkulu.”
35UJesu wamkhuza, wathi: “Thula, uphume kuye!”
Idimoni lamqumba phansi phambi kwabo, laphuma kuye lingamlimazanga.
36Bonke bafikelwa ngukwesaba, bakhuluma bodwa, bathi: “Lizwi lini leli, ngokuba ukhuluma ngegunya namandla, ukhuza imimoya engcolileyo, iphume na?”
37Udumo lwakhe lwasabalala kuzo zonke lezo zindawo.
Ukuphulukiswa Komkhwekazi KaPhethro Nabanye Abagulayo
38Waphuma esinagogeni, wangena endlini kaSimoni. Kepha umkhwekazi kaSimoni wayebanjwe ngumkhuhlane onzima; bamnxusa uJesu ukuba amsize. 39UJesu wamengama, wawukhuza umkhuhlane, waphela. Wasuka ngokushesha wabakhonza.
40Kwathi selishona ilanga, baletha kuye bonke abagulayo nababekhwelwe yizifo ezehlukene; wabeka izandla phezu kwabo ngamunye, wabaphilisa. 41Kwaphuma amadimoni kwabaningi, ememeza ethi: “Wena uyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu.”
