15 Ngemuva kwaloko, kwesuka baFarisi netati temtsetfo eJerusalema beta kuJesu,+ batsi: 2 “Kwentiwa yini kutsi bafundzi bakho bangalihloniphi lisiko labokhokho betfu? Ngobe abatigezi* tandla tabo ngaphambi kwekutsi badle.”+
3 Jesu wabaphendvula watsi: “Nine nentiwa yini kutsi ningawulaleli umtsetfo waNkulunkulu ngenca yemasiko enu?+ 4 Ngobe Nkulunkulu watsi: ‘Hlonipha babe wakho namake wakho,’+ waphindze watsi: ‘Umuntfu lokhuluma kabi* ngababe wakhe nobe ngamake wakhe kufanele abulawe.’+ 5 Kodvwa nine nitsi: ‘Nobe ngubani lotsi kubabe wakhe nobe kumake wakhe: “Konkhe lenginako lebenginganinakekela ngako sekusipho lesinikelwe kuNkulunkulu,”+ 6 akusadzingeki abahloniphe batali bakhe.’ Ngako nilente laba lite livi laNkulunkulu ngenca yemasiko enu.+ 7 Nine batentisi, Isaya waphrofetha kufanele ngani, nakatsi:+ 8 ‘Labantfu bangidvumisa ngemilomo yabo, kodvwa tinhlitiyo tabo tikhashane nami. 9 Kungikhonta kwabo kulite, ngobe bafundzisa timfundziso tebantfu.’”+ 10 Ngako wase ubita sicumbi sebantfu lebesisedvute, watsi kuso: “Lalelani futsi niwacondze lamavi latsi:+ 11 Loko lokungena emlonyeni akumngcolisi umuntfu, kodvwa nguloko lokuphuma kuwo lokumngcolisako.”+
12 Ngako bafundzi beta kuye batsi: “Uyati yini kutsi loko lokushito kubakhubile baFarisi?”+ 13 Wabaphendvula watsi: “Tonkhe tihlahla letingakahlanyelwa nguBabe losezulwini titawusishulwa. 14 Bayekeleni. Babaholi labatimphumphutse. Nangabe imphumphutse ihola imphumphutse, totimbili titawugcumukela emgodzini.”+ 15 Phetro watsi kuye: “Sichazele lomfanekiso.” 16 Ngako Jesu watsi: “Kantsi nani solo anicondzi yini?+ 17 Anati yini kutsi konkhe lokungena emlonyeni kuya esiswini, nakhona kufike kwendlule bese kuyaphuma? 18 Kodvwa tintfo letiphuma emlonyeni tivela enhlitiyweni, futsi ngito letingcolisa umuntfu.+ 19 Ngobe enhlitiyweni kuphuma imicabango lemibi:+ kubulala, kuphinga, bugwadla,* kweba, kucala emanga nekuhlambalata. 20 Leti-ke ngito tintfo letingcolisa umuntfu, kodvwa kudla ngetandla letingakagezwa* akumngcolisi umuntfu.”
21 Jesu watsi nakesuka lapho, waya ngaseThire naseSidoni.+ 22 Kweta umfati longumFenisiya lobekahlala lapho, wamemeta watsi: “Ngihawukele Nkhosi, Ndvodzana yaDavide. Indvodzakati yami ihlushwa lidimoni kamatima.”+ 23 Kodvwa Jesu akazange amphendvule. Ngako bafundzi bakhe beta kuye batsi: “Mtjele ahambe, ngobe solo uyamemeta futsi uyasilandzela.” 24 Wabaphendvula watsi: “Angikatfunywa kulabanye bantfu, kodvwa ngitfunywe kubantfu baka-Israyeli labanjengetimvu letilahlekile.”+ 25 Kodvwa lomfati wafike waguca embikwakhe watsi: “Nkhosi, ngisite!” 26 Jesu wamphendvula watsi: “Akukalungi kutsatsa sinkhwa sebantfwana usijikele tinja letisetincane.” 27 Yena watsi: “Kona kunjalo Nkhosi, kodvwa netinja letisetincane tidla timvutfu letiwa etafuleni lebanikati bato.”+ 28 Ngako Jesu wamphendvula watsi: “Maye kukhulu kukholwa kwakho; akwenteke loko lokufisako.” Lendvodzakati yalomfati yelapheka ngaso leso sikhatsi.
29 Nakesuka lapho, Jesu waya ngaseLwandle LwaseGalile,+ futsi wakhuphukela entsabeni wahlala khona. 30 Kwase kufika sicumbi lesikhulu sebantfu, saletsa labachutako, labakhubatekile, labangaboni emehlweni, labangakhoni kukhuluma, nalabanye lebebagula, futsi sababeka embikwakhe, yena wabelapha.+ 31 Labantfu bamangala nababona labangakhoni kukhuluma sebakhuluma, labakhubatekile sebelaphekile, labachutako sebahamba kahle, nalabangaboni emehlweni sebabona. Babese bakhatimulisa Nkulunkulu wema-Israyeli.+
32 Jesu wase ubita bafundzi bakhe watsi kubo: “Ngiyabavela labantfu+ ngobe sekuphele emalanga lamatsatfu bahleti nami futsi bete kudla. Angifuni bahambe balambile,* ngobe kungenteka baphelelwe ngemandla endleleni.”+ 33 Kodvwa bafundzi bakhe batsi: “Kulendzawo lesiganga, singatitsatsaphi nje tinkhwa letingenela labantfu labanyenti kangaka?”+ 34 Ngako Jesu watsi kubo: “Tingakhi tinkhwa leninato?” Bona batsi: “Sinaletingu-7 kanye netinhlanti letimbalwa.” 35 Ngemuva kwekutjela labantfu kutsi bahlale phansi, 36 watsatsa letinkhwa letingu-7 kanye naletinhlanti, futsi ngemuva kwekubonga, watihlephula, watinika bafundzi bakhe, bona batinika labantfu.+ 37 Bonkhe badla besutsa, bafundzi babutsa kudla lobekusele, kwagcwala bobhasikidi labakhulu labangu-7.+ 38 Bantfu labadla bekungemadvodza langu-4 000, kanye nebafati nebantfwana. 39 Watsi nasekabakhululile labantfu, wagibela esikebheni, waya esifundzeni saseMagadani.+
