1 Wathi ke kubo abafundi, Azinakuba zingezi izikhubekiso; yeha ke, loo mntu ziza ngaye!
2 Angásizakala kanye, ethe wagangxwa ilitye lokusila entanyeni yakhe, wajulelwa elwandle, kunokuba akhubekise noko amnye kwaba bancinane.
3 Zilumkeleni; ukuba ke umzalwana wakho uthe wakona, mkhalimele; ukuba uthe waguquka, mxolele.
4 Nokuba uthe wakona kasixhenxe ngemini, waza wabuyela kuwe kasixhenxe ngemini, esithi, Ndiyaguquka, wòthi umxolele.
5 Abapostile* bathi eNkosini, Songezelele ukholo.
6 Ithe ke iNkosi, Ukuba beninokholo olunjengokhozo lwemostade, beningáthi kulo mthombe, Ncothuka, utyaleke phakathi elwandle; uze unive.
7 Ngubani na ke kuni, enomkhonzi elima, mhlawumbi esalúsa, oya kuthi, akungena evela entsimini, athi kwaoko kuye, Yiza uhlale phantsi;
8 ongàyi kuthi kanye kuye, Lungisa into endiya kuyidla, uze ubhinqe, undilungiselele, ndide ndidle ndisele; wòthi emva koko udle usele nawe?
9 Angánombulelo kuloo mkhonzi yini na, ngokuba enze izinto azimiselweyo? Anditsho mna.
10 Ngokukwanjalo nani, xa nithe nazenza zonke izinto enazimiselwayo, yithini, Singabakhonzi abangancedi lutho; ngokuba sanele ukwenza oko besimelwe kukuthi sikwenze.
11 Kwathi ekuhambeni kwakhe ukuya eYerusalem, wacanda phakathi kwelamaSamariya nelaseGalili yena.
12 Akubon' ukuba ungena mzini uthile, amhlangabeza amadoda alishumi eneqhenqa, amela mgama.
13 Wona aphakamisa ilizwi, esithi, Yesu, Mongameli, senzele inceba.
14 Ewabonile ke, wathi kuwo, Hambani niye kuzibonakalalisa kubabingeleli.Kwathi ekuyeni kwawo, ahlanjululwa.
15 Ithe ke enye kuwo apho, yakubona ukuba iphilisiwe, yabuya imzukisa uThixo ngezwi elikhulu.
16 Yawa ngobuso ezinyaweni zakhe, ibulela kuye; yaye yona ingumSamariya.
17 Waphendula ke uYesu wathi, Babengahlanjululwanga belishumi na? Baphi na ke abasithoba?
18 Akufumanekanga na babuyileyo, besiza kuzukisa uThixo, ngulo wolunye uhlanga yedwa na?
19 Wathi kuye, Vuka, uhambe; ukholo lwakho lukusindisile.
20 Ke kaloku, akubuzwa ngabaFarisi ukuba ubukumkani bukaThixo buya kufika nini na, wabaphendula wathi, Ubukumkani bukaThixo abufiki bunokulolongeka.
21 Kanjalo akuyi kuthiwa, Nabu apha! Nabuya phaya! Kuba, yabonani, ubukumkani bukaThixo bungaphakathi kwenu.
22 Wathi ke kubo abafundi, Kuya kufika mihla, niya kunqwenela ngayo ukuwubona noko umnye umhla woNyana woMntu, ningawuboni;
23 baya kuthi ke kuni, Nanku apha! Nankuya phaya! Musani ukuya, ningaphuthumi nokuphuthuma.
24 Kuba kwanjengokuba umbane ubaneka, uphuma kwelinye icala eliphantsi kwezulu, ukhanye usingise kwelinye eliphantsi kwezulu, uya kuba njalo noNyana woMntu ngomhla wakhe.
25 Kodwa kuqala umelwe kukuthi eve ubunzima obuninzi, alahlwe sesi sizukulwana.
26 Njengoko kwaye kuhlé ngemihla kaNowa, koba njalo nangemihla yoNyana woMntu.
27 Babesidla, babesela, babezeka, babesendisa, kwada kwayimini awangena ngayo uNowa emkhombeni; wafika unogumbe, wabatshabalalisa bonke.
28 Njengoko kwaye kunjalo nangemihla kaLote; babesidla, babesela, babethenga, babethengisa, babetyala, babesakha;
29 kodwa ngemini awaphuma ngayo uLote eSodom, kwaná umlilo nesulfure ezulwini, batshatyalaliswa bonke.
30 Kuya kuba kwanjengoko ngemini atyhileka ngayo uNyana woMntu.
31 Ngaloo mini, oya kuba phezu kwendlu, zibe iimpahla zakhe zisendlwini, makangehli aye kuzithabatha. Kwangokunjalo, nosentsimini makangabuyeli kwezisemva.
32 Khumbulani umkaLote.
33 Othe wafuna ukuwushindisa umphefumlo wakhe, wolahlekelwa nguwo; othe wawulahla, uya kuwulondoloza.
34 Ndithi kuni, Ngobo busuku ababini boba sililini sinye; omnye amkelwe, omnye ashiywe.
35 Amankazana amabini oba esila ndawonye; enye yamkelwe, enye ishiywe.
36 Abantu ababini boba sentsimini; omnye amkelwe, omnye ashiywe.
37 Baphendula bathi kuye, Phi na, Nkosi? Ithe ke yona kubo, Apho sikhona isidumbu, aya kuhlanganisana khona amaxhalanga.
