1Kwathi uJesu eseqedile onke lawo mazwi, wathi kubafundi bakhe.
2Niyazi ukuthi emva kwezinsuku ezimbili kungumkhosi wePhasika, futhi iNdodana yomuntu izokhashelwa ukuba ibethelwe esiphambanweni.
3Khona babuthana abapristi abakhulu, nababhali, namalunga esizwe egcekeni lompristi omkhulu othiwa uKayafase;
4Bacebisana ukuthi bambambe uJesu ngobuqili, bambulale.
5Kodwa bathi: Kungabi ngomkhosi, hlezi kube khona isiyaluyalu ebantwini.
6Kwathi uJesu eseBethaniya endlini kaSimoni onochoko.
7Kwafika kuye owesifazane ephethe umfuma wealabhaste wamafutha anenani elikhulu, wawathela ekhanda lakhe ehlezi ekudleni.
8Kodwa abafundi bakhe bekubona bathukuthela, besithi: Ngani lokhu kuchithwa?
9Ngokuba lawa mafutha abengathengiswa ngemali enkulu, kuphiwe abampofu.
10UJesu ekwazi wathi kubo: “Nimhluphelani owesifazane na? ngoba wenzé umsebenzi omuhle kimi.
11Ngokuba abampofu ninabo njalo; kepha mina aninami njalo.
12Ngokuba ngokuthela lawa mafutha emzimbeni wami, ukwenzele ukungcwatshwa kwami.
13Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Nomaphi lapho elizashunyayelwa khona lelivangeli emhlabeni wonke, kuyakuba-khona nalokhu akwenzileyo lona wesifazane, kube yisikhumbuzo ngaye.
14Khona kwasuka omunye wabayishumi nambili, othiwa uJuda Iskariyothe, waya kubapristi abakhulu,
15Wasesithi kubo: Lizanginikani, njalo ngimnikele kini? Basebesenza isivumelwano laye ngenhlamvu zesiliva ezingamatshumi amathathu.
16Kusukela ngaleso sikhathi wafuna ithuba elihle lokumkhaphela.
17Kwathi ngosuku lokuqala lomkhosi wesinkwa esingenamvubelo abafundi beza kuJesu, bathi kuye: “Uthanda ukuba sikulungisele ngaphi ukuba udle iphasika na?
18Wathi: “Hambani niye emzini kumuntu othile, nithi kuye: ‘Uthi uMfundisi: Isikhathi sami siseduze; ngizakwenza iphasika kwakho kanye labafundi bami.
19Abafundi benza njengokusho kukaJesu; basebelungisa iphasika.
20Kwathi sekuhlwile, wahlala ekudleni nabayishumi nambili.
21Kwathi besidla wathi: Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Omunye wenu uzangikhaphela.
22Basebedabuka kakhulu, basebeqala ukuthi kuye ngulowo lalowo: Nkosi, kayisimi yini?
23Wasephendula wathi: Ofaka isandla sakhe kanye lami esitsheni nguye ozangithengisa.
24INdodana yomuntu iyamuka njengokulotshiweyo ngayo, kepha maye kulowo muntu iNdodana yomuntu ekhashelwa ngaye! ngabe kwaba kuhle kulowomuntu ukuba wayengazalwanga.
25Wasephendula uJudasi owamnikelayo, wathi: Nkosi, kambe? Wathi kuye: “Wena ushilo.”
26Kwathi besadla, uJesu wathatha isinkwa, wasibusisa, wasihlephula, wanika abafundi, wathi: Thathani, lidle; lokhu kungumzimba wami.
27Wasethatha inkezo, wabonga, wabanika, esithi: Selani kuyo lonke;
28Ngokuba lokhu kuyigazi lami lesivumelwano elithululwa ngenxa yabaningi kukho ukuthethelelwa kwezono.
29Kepha ngithi kini: Kusukela manje angisayikuphuza okwesithelo somvini, kuze kufike lolo suku engiyakusiphuza ngalo nani sisisha embusweni kaBaba.
30Sebehlabelele igama lokubonga, baphuma baya eNtabeni Yeminqumo.
31Khona uJesu wathi kubo: “Nina nonke niyakukhubeka ngami ngalobu busuku, ngokuba kulotshiwe ukuthi: “ ‘Ngiyakushaya umalusi, izimvu zomhlambi zihlakazeke.
32Kodwa emva kokuvuka kwami, ngizanandulela ukuya eGalili.
33UPetro waphendula wathi kuye: Lanxa bonke bezakukhubeka ngawe, mina kangisoze ngikhubeke.
34UJesu wathi kuye: “Ngiqinisile ngithi kuwe: Ngalobu busuku, lingakakhali iqhude, uzakungiphika kathathu.
35UPetro wathi kuye: Lanxa ngingafa lawe, kangisoze ngikuphike. Basho kanjalo bonke abafundi.
36Khona uJesu wafika nabo endaweni ethiwa iGetsemane, wathi kubafundi: “Hlalani lapha, ngisaya kukhuleka laphaya.
37Wathatha uPetru namadodana amabili kaZebedewu, waqala ukuba nomunyu nosizi.
38Khona wathi kubo: “Umphefumulo wami ulusizi kakhulu kuze kube sekufeni; hlalani lapha, nilinde kanye nami.
39Waqhubeka ingcosana, wawa ngobuso bakhe, wakhuleka wathi: “Baba, uma kungenzeka, makudlule kimi lesisitsha; nokho kungabi njengokuba ngithanda mina, kodwa njengokuba uthanda wena.
40Wasesiza kubafundi, wabafica belele, wathi kuPetro: Kanti beningelinde lami ihola elilodwa yini?
41Lindani, nikhuleke, ukuze ningangeni ekulingweni; umoya uyavuma, kepha inyama ibuthakathaka.
42Wabuye wahamba ngokwesibili, wakhuleka, wathi: “Baba, uma lesi sitsha singedlule kimi ngingasiphuzi, mayenziwe intando yakho.
43Wasebuya wabafica belele, ngoba amehlo abo ayenzima.
44Wabashiya, wabuye wahamba, wakhuleka ngokwesithathu, esho wona lawo mazwi.
45Wayesesiza kubafundi bakhe, wathi kubo: “Nisalele manje, niphumule; bhekani, isikhathi sesisondele, iNdodana yomuntu isiyakhashelwa ezandleni zezoni.
46Sukumani, sihambe; bhekani, useseduze ongikhaphelayo.
47Esakhuluma, bheka, kwafika uJudasi, omunye wabayishumi nambili, enesixuku esikhulu siphethe izinkemba nezinduku, sivela kubapristi abakhulu namalunga abantu.
48Kepha omkhaphelayo wayebanike isibonakaliso, ethi: “Lowo engiyakumanga, nguye;
49Wahle waya kuJesu, wathi: Sawubona, Rabi! wamanga.
50UJesu wathi kuye: “Mngane, uze ngani na? Base besondela, babeka izandla kuJesu, bambamba.
51Bheka, omunye kwababe noJesu welula isandla, wahosha inkemba yakhe, wagalela inceku yompristi omkhulu, wayinquma indlebe.
52UJesu wayesethi kuye: “Buyisela inkemba yakho endaweni yayo, ngokuba bonke abaphatha inkemba bayakubhubha ngenkemba.
53Uthi ngingecele kuBaba ukuthi anginike manje amalegiyona ezingelosi angaphezu kweshumi nambili na?
54Kodwa ingagcwaliseka njani imibhalo yokuthi kumele kube njalo?
55Ngaleso sikhathi uJesu wathi ezixukwini: “Niphumele ukungibamba niphethe izinkemba nezinduku njengokuya kumphangi na? Bengihlezi kini insuku zonke ethempelini ngifundisa, aningibambanga.
56Kepha konke lokhu kwenzeka ukuba kugcwaliseke imibhalo yabaprofethi. Khona bonke abafundi bamshiya, babaleka.
57Labo abambamba uJesu bamyisa kuKayafase umpristi omkhulu, lapho kwakubuthene khona ababhali namalunga.
58Kepha uPetru wamlandela ekude kwaze kwaba segcekeni lompristi omkhulu, wangena, wahlala nezinceku ukuba abone isiphetho.
59Abapristi abakhulu namalunga nomkhandlu wonke bafuna ubufakazi bamanga ngoJesu ukuze bambulale;
60Kepha ababufumananga, yebo, nakuba kwafika ofakazi bamanga abaningi, ababufumananga. Ekugcineni kwafika ofakazi bamanga ababili.
61Bathi: “Lo wathi: ‘Nginamandla okudiliza ithempeli likaNkulunkulu, ngilakhe ngezinsuku ezintathu.
62Kwasekusukuma umpristi omkhulu, wathi kuye: Kawuphenduli lutho yini? kuyini laba abakufakaza ngawe na?
63Kodwa uJesu wathula. Umpristi omkhulu wasephendula wathi kuye: Ngikufungisa uNkulunkulu ophilayo, ukuthi usitshele ukuthi wena unguKristu, iNdodana kaNkulunkulu.
64UJesu wathi kuye: “Wena ushilo; nokho ngithi kini: Kusukela manje nizakubona iNdodana yomuntu ihlezi ngakwesokunene saMandla, iza ngamafu ezulu.
65Umpristi omkhulu wayeseklebhula izingubo zakhe, wathi: “Usehlambalazile; sisaswelelani ofakazi na? bhekani, manje senikuzwile ukuhlambalaza kwakhe.
66Nicabangani? Baphendula bathi: Unecala lokufa.
67Base bemkhafulela ngamathe ebusweni, bamshaya; abanye bamshaya ngezintende zezandla.
68Besithi: Siprofethe, wena Kristu, ngubani okutshayileyo?
69Kepha uPetru wayehlezi ngaphandle egcekeni;
70Kepha waphika phambi kwabo bonke, wathi: “Angikwazi okushoyo.
71Kwathi ephumela egumeni, enye incekukazi yambona, yathi kwababekhona: Lo muntu ubenoJesu waseNazaretha.
72Waphinda waphika ngesifungo, wathi: Kangimazi lowomuntu.
73Kwathi emva kwesikhashana beza kuye ababemi khona, bathi kuPetru: “Nempela nawe ungomunye wabo; ngoba ukukhuluma kwakho kuyakuveza.
74Waseqala ukuthuka lokufunga, esithi: Kangimazi lumuntu. Lahle lakhala iqhude.
75UPetru wakhumbula izwi likaJesu, alisho kuye ukuthi: “Iqhude lingakakhali, uzakungiphika kathathu. Waphuma wakhala kamunyu.
