17 Njengoba bekhuphukela eJerusalema, uJesu wathatha abafundi abangu-12 waya nabo ngasese wathi kubo endleleni: + 18 “Bhekani! Sikhuphukela eJerusalema, iNdodana yomuntu izonikelwa kubapristi abakhulu nakubabhali. Bazoyinika isigwebo sokufa, + 19 bayinikele kubantu bezizwe ukuba bahlekise ngayo, bayibhaxabule futhi bayibulalele esigxotsheni; + kodwa ngosuku lwesithathu izovuswa.” +

31 Waqala nokubafundisa ukuthi iNdodana yomuntu kumele ihlupheke kakhulu, yaliwe amadoda amadala nabapristi abakhulu nababhali futhi ibulawe, + bese ivuka ngemva kwezinsuku ezintathu. +

31 Ngoba wayefundisa abafundi bakhe ebatshela ethi: “INdodana yomuntu izonikelwa ezandleni zabantu futhi bazoyibulala, kodwa noma ingabulawa, + izovuka ngemva kwezinsuku ezintathu.” +

22 kodwa wathi: “INdodana yomuntu kumele ihlupheke kakhulu, yenqatshwe amadoda amadala nabapristi abakhulu nababhali futhi ibulawe, + ivuswe ngosuku lwesithathu.” +

31 Wabe esebizela eceleni abayiShumi Nambili* wathi kubo: “Bhekani! Sikhuphukela eJerusalema, zonke izinto ezalotshwa ngokuqondene neNdodana yomuntu kusetshenziswa abaprofethi zizofezeka. *+ 32 Ngokwesibonelo, izonikelwa kubantu bezizwe, + kuhlekiswe ngayo, + yeyiswe futhi ikhafulelwe. + 33 Ngemva kokuyibhaxabula bazoyibulala, + kodwa izovuka ngosuku lwesithathu.” +
