UYesu uba buhlungu aze akhathazeke kakhulu. Ubaxelela oku: “Umphefumlo wam ubuhlungu kakhulu, ngokokude ube sekufeni; hlalani apha nilinde nam.”

Akunjalo! UYesu akaceli ukuba asindiswe ekufeni. Kwanengcamango yokuphepha ukufa okulidini, eyakhe yacetyiswa nguPetros, inezothe kuye. Kunoko, ubuhlungu kuba esoyikela ukuba indlela aza kuthi kungekudala afe ngayo—njengesaphuli-mthetho esithiyekileyo—iza kuzisa ugculelo kwigama likaYise. Ngoku uyaqonda ukuba kwiiyure ezimbalwa uza kuxhonywa emthini njengoyena mntu ungendawo—umntu onyelisa uThixo! Oku koko kumkhathaza kakhulu.
