Wasehlala phansi d wafundisa amaxuku esemkhunjini e.

4Kwathi eseqedile ukukhuluma, wathi kuSimoni: Ngena enzikini, lehlise amambule enu ukuze libambe f. 5USimoni wasephendula wathi kuye: Nkosi g, sitshikatshike ubusuku bonke, kasibambanga lutho; kodwa ngokutsho kwakho ngizakwehlisa imbule h. 6Kwathi sebekwenzile lokho, babamba inhlanzi ezinengi kakhulu. Laselidabuka imbule labo i. 7Basebeqhweba ababehlanganyele labo j ababekomunye umkhumbi, ukuthi beze babasize; beza-ke bayigcwalisa imikhumbi yomibili, yaze yaqalisa ukutshona k. 8Kuthe uSimoni Petro ebona, wawela emadolweni kaJesu l, esithi: Suka kimi, Nkosi, ngoba ngingumuntu oyisoni m. 9Ngoba ukumangala kwakumbambile, labo bonke ababelaye, ngokubanjwa kwenhlanzi ababezibambile; 10ngokufananayo-ke loJakobe loJohane, amadodana kaZebediya, ababehlanganyele loSimoni n. UJesu wasesithi kuSimoni: Ungesabi; kusukela khathesi uzagola abantu. 11Kwathi sebeyifikisile imikhumbi emhlabathini, batshiya konke, bamlandela o.

UJesu usilisa umlephero

12Kwasekusithi, esekomunye wemizi, khangela-ke, indoda egcwele ubulephero; yathi ibona uJesu, yawa ngobuso, yamncenga, isithi: Nkosi, aluba uthanda, ungangihlambulula. 13Waseselula isandla, wayithinta, esithi: Ngiyathanda, hlambuluka. Njalo bahle basuka ubulephero kuyo p. 14Yena waseyilaya ukuthi ingatsheli muntu; wathi: Kodwa hamba uziveze kumpristi, unikelele ukuhlanjululwa kwakho, njengoba uMozisi walaya, kube yibufakazi kubo q. 15Kodwa kwayilapho ukukhuluma ngaye kwanda kakhulu; lamaxuku amanengi abuthana ukulalela, lokusiliswa nguye ezifweni zawo r. 16Kodwa yena waphumela enkangala s wakhuleka t.

UJesu usilisa umuntu oyisigoga

17Kwasekusithi ngolunye lwezinsuku, yena wayefundisa; njalo kwakuhlezi abaFarisi labafundisi bomlayo u, abavela kuyo yonke imizana yeGalili leJudiya leJerusalema; lamandla eNkosi ayekhona ukubasilisa. 18Njalo khangela, amadoda ethwele ngohlaka umuntu owayome umhlubulo; njalo adinga ukumngenisa ambeke phambi kwakhe; 19kodwa engatholi indlela yokumngenisa ngenxa yexuku v, akhwela ephahleni lwendlu, amehlisa ezitineni zokufulela ngethala phambi kukaJesu phakathi laphakathi w. 20Kwathi ebona ukholo lwawo, wathi kuye: Ndoda, izono zakho uzithethelelwe. 21Ababhali labaFarisi basebeqala ukunakana, besithi: Ungubani lo okhuluma inhlamba x? Ngubani ongathethelela izono, ngaphandle kukaNkulunkulu yedwa y? 22Kwathi uJesu esazi ukunakana kwabo waphendula wathi kubo: Linakanani enhliziyweni zenu? 23Yikuphi okulula, ukuthi: Izono zakho uzithethelelwe; kumbe ukuthi: Sukuma uhambe? 24Kodwa ukuze lazi ukuthi iNdodana yomuntu ilamandla okuthethelela izono emhlabeni (wathi koyisigoga): Ngithi kuwe: Sukuma, uthathe ithala lakho, uye endlini yakho z. 25Njalo wahle wasukuma phambi kwabo, wathatha lokhu ayelele kukho, wasuka waya endlini yakhe aa, edumisa uNkulunkulu ab. 26Lokusanganiseka kwababamba bonke, basebedumisa uNkulunkulu ac, bagcwala ukwesaba ad, besithi: Sibone izimanga lamuhla.

Ukubizwa kukaLevi

27Njalo emva kwalezizinto waphuma, wabona umthelisi, uLevi ngebizo, ehlezi endlini yokuthelisela, wathi kuye: Ngilandela ae. 28Wasetshiya konke, wasukuma wamlandela af. 29ULevi wasemenzela ag idili elikhulu endlini yakhe ah; njalo kwakukhona ixuku elikhulu labathelisi lelabanye abahlala kanye labo ekudleni ai. 30Ababhali babo labaFarisi basebesola kubafundi bakhe, besithi: Kungani lisidla linatha labathelisi lezoni? 31UJesu wasephendula wathi kubo: Abaphilayo kabasweli melaphi, kodwa abagulayo. 32Kangizanga ukubiza abalungileyo, kodwa izoni zize ekuphendukeni aj.

Ukuzila ukudla

33Basebesithi ak kuye: Kungani abafundi bakaJohane al bezila ukudla kanengi am, benze imikhuleko, kunjalo lababaFarisi an; kodwa abakho bayadla banathe? 34Kodwa wathi kubo: Kambe, lingabazilisa ukudla yini abantwana bendlu yomthimba, umyeni eselabo? 35Kodwa zizafika insuku, lapho umyeni ezasuswa kubo, khona bezazila ukudla ngalezonsuku ao.

36Wasebatshela futhi umfanekiso wokuthi: Kakho obekela isichibi sesembatho esitsha esembathweni esidala; uba kungenjalo, esitsha laso siyadabula, lesichibi sesitsha asihambelani lesidala. 37Futhi kakho ofaka iwayini elitsha emigodleni emidala; uba-ke kungenjalo, iwayini elitsha lizadabula imigodla, lichitheke lona, lemigodla yonakale. 38Kodwa iwayini elitsha limele lifakwe emigodleni emitsha, njalo kokubili kulondolozeke. 39Njalo kakho othi esenathe iwayini elidala ahle afise elitsha; ngoba uthi: Elidala lingcono.
