¹Kwathi ngomnyaka weshumi nanhlanu wokubusa kukaTiberiyu Kesari, uPontiyu Pilatu engumbusi waseJudiya, noHerode engumbusi wesifunda saseGalile, noFiliphu umfowabo engumbusi wesifunda sase-Itureya nasesifundeni saseTrakoniti, noLisaniya engumtetrarki wase-Abilene,

²U-Anase noKayafase bengabapristi abakhulu, izwi likaNkulunkulu lafika kuJohane indodana kaZakariya ehlane.

³Weza ezweni lonke laseJordani, eshumayela umbhapathizo wokuphenduka kukho ukuthethelelwa kwezono;

⁴njengokulotshiweyo egwalweni lwamazwi kaIsaya umprofethi ukuthi: Ilizwi lomemezayo enkangala, lithi: Lungisani indlela yeNkosi, nenze imikhondo yayo iqonde.

⁵Zonke izigodi ziyakugcwaliswa, zonke izintaba namagquma kuyakwehliswa; nezimangelengele ziyakuqondiswa, izindlela ezimazombezombe zibe bushelelezi;

⁶Futhi yonke inyama iyakubona insindiso kaNkulunkulu.

⁷Khona wathi ezixukwini ezaziphumela ukubhapathizwa nguye: “Nzalo yezinyoka, ubani onibonise ukubalekela ulaka oluzayo na?

⁸Ngakho vezani izithelo ezifanele ukuphenduka, ningaqali ukuthi phakathi kwenu: ‘Sinobaba u-Abrahama;’ ngokuba ngithi kini: UNkulunkulu unamandla okumvusela u-Abrahama abantwana kulawa matshe.

⁹Kalokhu izembe selibekiwe empandeni yemithi; ngakho yonke imithi engatheli izithelo ezinhle iyagawulwa, iphonswe emlilweni.

¹⁰Amaxuku ambuza athi: Pho-ke sizakwenzani?

¹¹Waphendula, wathi kubo: “Onezingubo ezimbili akabele ongenalutho; nalowo odlayo makenze ngokunjalo.

¹²Kwasekufika nabathelisi ukuba babhapathizwe, bathi kuye: “Mfundisi, siyakwenzani na?

¹³Wathi kubo: Ningabizi okungaphezu kwalokho enikumiselweyo.

¹⁴Namasosha ambuza, ethi: “Thina-ke siyakwenzani na? Wasesithi kubo: Lingaphambanisi muntu, lingaqambi amanga; neneliswe yinkokhelo yenu.

¹⁵Kwathi abantu besalindile, bezindla bonke ezinhliziyweni zabo ngoJohane ukuthi unguKristu yini, kumbe hatshi;

¹⁶UJohane waphendula, wathi kubo bonke: Mina nginibhapathiza ngamanzi; kodwa uyeza onamandla kunami, engingafanele ukuwuthukulula umchilo wezicathulo zakhe;

¹⁷olwelo lwakhe lusesandleni sakhe, aze ahlanze isibuya sakhe, abuthele ukolweni enqolobaneni yakhe; kepha amakhoba uyakuwashisa ngomlilo ongacimekiyo.

¹⁸Esikhundleni sakhe nangezinye izinto eziningi washumayela ivangeli kubantu.

¹⁹Kodwa uHerodi umtetrarki, esolwa nguye ngoHerodiya umkaFiliphu umfowabo langakho konke okubi uHerodi abekwenzile;

²⁰Wenezela nalokhu phezu kwakho konke, ukuthi wavalela uJohane etilongweni.

²¹Kwathi sebebhabhathiziwe abantu bonke, uJesu laye esebhabhathiziwe, ekhuleka, izulu lavuleka;

²²UMoya oNgcwele enesimo somzimba njengejuba wehlela phezu kwakhe, kwavela izwi ezulwini, lithi: “Wena uyiNdodana yami ethandekayo; ngiyathokoza ngawe.
