Ukusiliswa kwendoda eyayilamadimoni

1 Bawela ichibi bafika emmangweni wamaGerasini. 2 Kwathi uJesu ephuma esikepeni kwaqhamuka emathuneni indoda elomoya omubi yamhlangabeza. 3 Indoda le yayihlala emathuneni, kungaselamuntu ongayibopha loba langeketane. 4 Ngoba yayihlezi ibotshiwe izandla lezinyawo kodwa iqamule amaketane iqamule lezinsimbi ezinyaweni zayo. Kwakungekho muntu owayelamandla okuyinqoba. 5 Ubusuku lemini yayihlaba umkhosi isemathuneni lasezintabeni, izisike ngamatshe.

6 Yathi ibona uJesu isebucwala yagijima yafika yazilahla phansi ngamadolo phambi kwakhe. 7 Yaklabalala yathi, “Ufunani ngami Jesu, Ndodana kaNkulunkulu oPhezukonke? Funga kuNkulunkulu ukuthi kawuzukungichukuluza!”

8 Ngoba uJesu wayesethe kuyo, “Phuma kuyo indoda le, wena moya omubi!”

9 UJesu waseyibuza wathi, “Ungubani ibizo lakho?” Yaphendula yathi, “Ibizo lami nguLigiyoni, ngokuba sibanengi.”

10 Yamncenga uJesu futhi futhi ukuthi angabaxotshi kulowommango.

11 Kwakulomhlambi omkhulu wezingulube usidla ewatheni lentaba eduze khonapho.

12 Amadimoni amncenga uJesu athi, “Sithumele ezingulubeni; sivumele singene kuzo.”

13 Wabavumela, baphuma omoya ababi bayangena ezingulubeni. Umhlambi wazo lowo owawungaba yizinkulungwane ezimbili wathi zimu wehla eliweni lechibi wagalula.

14 Labo ababezelusile izingulube babaleka bayabika lokho edolobheni kanye lasemaphandleni, yikho abantu baqubuka bayabona lokho okwakwenzakele. 15 Bathi befika kuJesu bayibona indoda eyayikade ikhwelwe ngamadimoni ngobunengi bawo, ihlezi khonapho, igqokile njalo ingqondo isibuyile, besaba kakhulu. 16 Labo ababekubonile kusenzakala batshela abantu okwenzakalayo endodeni eyayikhwelwe ngamadimoni – balandisa njalo langezingulube.

17 Abantu basebemncenga uJesu ukuthi asuke emmangweni wakibo.

18 Kwathi uJesu esengena esikepeni indoda leyo eyayikade ilamadimoni yamncenga ukuthi ahambe layo. 19 UJesu kayivumelanga, kodwa wathi kuyo, “Hamba ekhaya kwabakini ubatshele ukuba iNkosi ikwenzele okunganani, lokuthi ibe lesihawu kuwe.” 20 Yikho indoda yasihamba yabatshela eDikhapholi konke uJesu ayeyenzele khona. Bonke abantu bamangala.

Intombazana Efileyo Lomfazi Ogulayo

21 Kwathi lapho uJesu esewele njalo ngesikepe waya ngakuleliyana iphetsheya lechibi, kwabuthana kuye ixuku elikhulu ekhonapho eceleni kwechibi. 22 Kwasekufika omunye wezinduna zesinagogi okwakuthiwa nguJayiru. Wathi ebona uJesu wazilahla ezinyaweni zakhe 23 wamncenga kakhulu wathi, “Indodakazi yami encinyane iyafa. Bakithi, woza uzobeka izandla zakho phezu kwayo ukuze isile, iphile.” 24 UJesu wahamba laye. Ixuku elikhulu lamlandela lamminyezela.

25 Kwakulowesifazana khonapho owayephethwe yikopha sekumhluphe iminyaka elitshumi lambili. 26 Wayesehlupheke kakhulu loba wayebhadalazwa ngabelaphi, njalo esechithe konke ayelakho, kodwa ekubeni abe ngcono kwakusiya phambili. 27 Wathi esezwile ngoJesu wazithukuza exukwini labantu weza kuye ngemuva wabamba ijazi lakhe, 28 ngokuba wacabanga wathi, “Aluba ngithinta izigqoko zakhe kodwa nje, ngizasila.” 29 Masinyane ukopha kwakhe kwakhawula wezwa emzimbeni wakhe ukuthi wayesekhululekile ekuhluphekeni kwakhe.

30 Khonokho uJesu wananzelela ukuthi amandla ayephumile kuye. Waphendukela exukwini labantu wabuza wathi, “Ngubani othinte izigqoko zami?” 31 Abafundi bakhe bamphendula bathi, “Lawe uyababona abantu beminyezelana kuwe, kodwa uyabuza uthi, ‘Ngubani ongithintileyo?’ ”

32 Kodwa uJesu wala elokhu ethalaza ukuze abone ukuthi ngubani okwenzileyo lokho.

33 Ngakho owesifazana owayekwazi okwasekwenzakele kuye weza wazilahla ezinyaweni zakhe ethuthumela ngokwesaba wahle wafakaza iqiniso.

34 Wathi kowesifazana, “Ndodakazi, ukholo lwakho lukusilisile. Hamba ngokuthula ukhululeke ekuhluphekeni kwakho.”

35 UJesu elokhu esakhuluma kweza amanye amadoda ephuma endlini kaJayiru, induna yesinagogi. Athi, “Indodakazi yakho isifile. Kambe usamhluphelani umfundisi na?”

36 Akaze akunaka lokho ababekutsho uJesu, wasetshela induna yesinagogi wathi, “Ungesabi; kholwa nje kuphela.”

37 Kavumelanga muntu ukuba amlandele ngaphandle kukaPhethro, loJakhobe loJohane umfowabo kaJakhobe. 38 Bathi befika emzini wenduna yesinagogi uJesu wabona isiphithiphithi abantu bekhala benqongoloza.

39 Wangena wathi kubo, “Ngesani isiphithiphithi sonke lesi lomkhosi wonke lo? Umntwana kafanga kodwa ulele.” 40 Kodwa bamhleka. Esebakhuphele phandle bonke wathatha uyise womntwana lonina kanye labafundi ayelabo wangena lapho umntwana ayekhona.

41 Wambamba ngesandla wathi kuye, “Thalitha khumi!” (okutsho ukuthi, “Ntombazana, ngithi kuwe, sukuma!”) 42 Masinyane intombazana yasukuma yahambahamba (wayemdala okweminyaka elitshumi lambili). Lokhu kwabamangalisa baphela amandla. 43 Wabaqonqonsela wathi bangazisi muntu ngalokho, wasesithi kabamuphe ukudla untombazana.
