¹Wayesebatshela nomfanekiso wokuthi kufanele bakhuleke njalo, bangadangali;

²esithi: Kwakukhona emzini othile umahluleli owayengamesabi uNkulunkulu, enganaki muntu;

³Kwakukhona futhi kulowo muzi umfelokazi; weza kuye, wathi: Ngiphindisele esitheni sami.

⁴Kwaba yisikhathi engavumi, kodwa ngasemuva wathi phakathi kwakhe: “Nakuba ngingamesabi uNkulunkulu, nginganaki muntu;

⁶Yathi iNkosi: Zwanini akushoyo umahluleli ongalungile.

⁷Futhi uNkulunkulu kayikuphindisela yini abakhethiweyo bakhe abakhala kuye imini lebusuku, lanxa ebabekezelela?

⁸Ngithi kini: Uzabalungisela masinyane. Nokho nxa ifika iNdodana yomuntu, iyakufumana ukukholwa emhlabeni na?

¹⁶Kepha uJesu wababizela kuye, wathi: “Vumelani abantwana beze kimi, ningabenqabeli, ngokuba umbuso kaNkulunkulu ungowabanjalo.

¹⁷Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Yilowo nalowo ongamukeli umbuso kaNkulunkulu njengomntwana kasoze angena kuwo.

¹⁸Umbusi othile wambuza, wathi: “Mfundisi omuhle, ngenzeni ukuba ngidle ifa lokuphila okuphakade na?

¹⁹UJesu wathi kuye: “Ungibizelani ngokuthi ngimuhle na? kakho omuhle, ngaphandle koyedwa, uNkulunkulu.

²⁰Uyayazi imilayo ethi: Ungafebi, ungabulali, ungebi, ungafakazi amanga, yazisa uyihlo lonyoko.

²¹Wathi: “Konke lokho ngikugcinile kwasebusheni bami.

²²UJesu ekuzwa lokho wathi kuye: “Usasilalelwe into eyodwa; thengisa ngakho konke onakho, wabele abampofu, khona uzakuba negugu ezulwini; uze ungilandele.

²⁵Ngokuba kulula ukuba ikamela lingene ngentunja yenaliti, kunokuba onothileyo angene embusweni kaNkulunkulu.

²⁶Abezwayo bathi: Pho kungasindiswa bani?

²⁷Wathi: Izinto ezingenzekiyo kubantu ziyenzeka kuNkulunkulu.

²⁸UPetro wasesithi: Khangela, thina sitshiye konke, sakulandela.

²⁹Wasesithi kubo: Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Kakho otshiye indlu, kumbe abazali, kumbe abafowabo, kumbe umkakhe, kumbe abantwana, ngenxa yombuso kaNkulunkulu;

³⁰ongayikwamukeliswa okuphindwe kaningi kulesi sikhathi, nasezweni elizayo ukuphila okuphakade.

³¹Wayesethatha abayishumi nambili, wathi kubo: “Bhekani, sikhuphukela eJerusalema, futhi konke okulotshwe ngabaprofethi ngeNdodana yomuntu kuyakufezeka.

³²Ngokuba iyakukhashelwa kwabezizwe, iklolodelwe, iphathwe kabi, ikhafulelwe;

³³bayakuyishaya, bayibulale, kepha ngosuku lwesithathu izakuvuka.

³⁴Kodwa bona kabaqedisisanga lutho lwalezozinto, lelizwi lalifihlakele kubo, njalo kabakwazi okwakhulunywayo.
