Inkulumo yokuvalelisa kukaJesu
1 “Inhliziyo yenu mayingakhathazeki. Kholwani nguNkulunkulu, nikholwe nayimi. 2Ekhaya likaBaba kukhona izindlu eziningi; uma bekungenjalo, bengiyakunitshela ukuthi ngiya ukunilungisela indawo. 3 Nanxa ngiya nginilungisela indawo, ngobuye ngize, nginibuyisele kimi ukuba lapho ngikhona nibe khona nani. 4Nalapho ngiya khona niyayazi indlela.”
5UTomase wathi kuye: “Nkosi, asazi lapho uya khona; siyazi kanjani indlela na?”
6 UJesu wathi kuye: “Mina ngiyindlela, neqiniso, nokuphila; akakho oza kuBaba ngaphandle kwami. 7Uma beningazi mina, beniyakumazi noBaba; kusukela manje niyamazi, nimbonile.”
8UFiliphu wathi kuye: “Nkosi, sikhombise uYihlo, kusanele.”
9 UJesu wathi kuye: “Isikhathi esingaka nginani, awukangazi, Filiphu, na? Ongibonile mina ubonile uBaba; usho kanjani ukuthi: ‘Sikhombise uYihlo,’ na? 10 Awukholwa ukuthi ngikuBaba, noBaba ukimi, na? Amazwi engiwakhulumayo mina kini angiwakhulumi ngokwami; kepha uBaba ohlezi kimi wenza imisebenzi yakhe. 11 Kholwani yimi ukuthi ngikuBaba, noBaba ukimi; uma kungenjalo, kholwani ngenxa yale misebenzi. 12 Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Okholwa yimi, imisebenzi engiyenzayo mina naye uyakuyenza, nemikhulu kunale uyakuyenza; ngokuba mina ngiya kuBaba. 13 Noma yini eniyakukucela egameni lami ngiyakukwenza ukuba uBaba akhazimuliswe eNdodaneni. 14Uma nicela utho kimi egameni lami, ngolwenza.
15 “Uma ningithanda, niyakugcina imiyalo yami. 16 Ngiyakucela kuBaba aniphe omunye uMduduzi wokuba ahlale kini phakade, 17 uMoya weqiniso, izwe elingemamukele, ngokuba lingamboni, lingamazi; nina niyamazi yena, ngokuba uhlala nani, uyakuba kini. 18 Angiyikunishiya niyizintandane; ngiyeza kini. 19 Kuseyisikhashana izwe lingasangiboni, kepha niyangibona nina, ngokuba ngiphila mina, nani nizakuphila. 20 Ngalolo suku niyakukwazi nina ukuba ngikuBaba, nani nikimi, nami ngikini. 21Onemiyalo yami ayigcine, nguyena ongithandayo; ongithandayo uyakuthandwa nguBaba, nami ngiyakumthanda, ngizibonakalise kuye.”
22UJuda, ongesiye u-Iskariyothe, wathi kuye: “Nkosi, kwenziwa yini ukuba uyakuzibonakalisa kithina, ungazibonakalisi kulo izwe, na?”
23 UJesu waphendula, wathi kuye: “Uma umuntu engithanda, uyakugcina izwi lami; uBaba uyakumthanda; siyakuza kuye, sihlale naye. 24 Ongangithandiyo kagcini amazwi ami, nezwi enilizwayo akusilo elami kepha ngelikaBaba ongithumileyo.
25“Ngikhulume lokho kini ngisahlezi nani. 26 Kepha uMduduzi, uMoya oNgcwele, uBaba ayakumthumela egameni lami uyakunifundisa konke, anikhumbuze konke enginitshele khona. 27 Ukuthula ngikushiya kinina, ukuthula kwami nginipha khona. Akunjengokupha kwezwe ukunipha kwami. Inhliziyo yenu mayingakhathazeki, ingesabi.
28 “Nizwile ukuthi nganitshela ngathi: Ngiyamuka, kepha ngiyabuyela kini. Uma beningithanda, beniyakujabula, ngokuba ngiya kuBaba, lokhu uBaba mkhulu kunami. 29 Manje senginitshelile kungakenzeki, ukuze nikholwe, nxa sekwenzekile. 30 Angisayikukhuluma okuningi nani, ngokuba uyeza umbusi wezwe, kepha akanalutho kimi, 31 kodwa kungukuba izwe lazi ukuthi ngiyamthanda uBaba nokuthi ngenza njengokuba uBaba engiyalile.
