NgokukaMakhu 11:20-33

Ngakusasa ekuseni badlula bawubona umkhiwane ubunile kusukela ezimpandeni. UPhethro ekhumbula okwakwenzekile, wathi kuJesu: “Rabi, bheka, umkhiwane owuqalekisileyo ubunile.” UJesu waphendula, wathi kubo: “Kholwani nguNkulunkulu. “Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: yilowo nalowo oyakuthi kule ntaba: ‘Zimbuka uphonseke olwandle,’ engangabazi enhliziyweni yakhe, kodwa ekholwa ukuthi lokho akushoyo kuzokwenzeka, uyakukwenzelwa lokho. Ngakho-ke ngithi kini: konke enikukhulekelayo nenikucelayo, kholwani ukuthi nikwamukele, nizakuba nakho. Uma futhi nimi nikhuleka, thethelelanani, uma ninamagqubu nomunye, ukuze noYihlo osezulwini anithethelele iziphambeko zenu. Kepha uma nina ningathethelelani, noYihlo osezulwini akayukunithethelela iziphambeko zenu.” Babuye babuyela eJerusalema, kwathi ehamba ethempelini, kweza kuye abaphristi abakhulu, izazimthetho namalunga, bathi kuye: “Lezi zinto uzenza ngagunya lini na? Ngubani okunike leli gunya ukuze wenze lokhu?” UJesu wathi kubo: “Ngizakunibuza igama libe linye vo, ningiphendule, ukuze nami nginitshele ukuthi ngenza lezi zinto ngagunya lini. Ukubhabhadisa kukaJohane ngabe kwakuvela ezulwini noma kubantu na? Ngiphenduleni.” Bahlanganisa amakhanda, bathi: “Uma sithi: ‘Ezulwini,’ uzakuthi: ‘Pho anikholwa ngani nguye na?’ Kepha uma sithi: ‘Kubantu’ ngeke kulunge.” Babesaba isixuku, ngokuba bonke abantu babethi uJohane ungumphrofethi impela. Base bemphendula uJesu bathi: “Asazi.” UJesu wayesethi kubo: “Nami ngeke nginitshele ukuthi ngenza lezi zinto ngagunya lini.”
