Owesifazane Obanjwe Ephinga
1 Khona uJesu waya eNtabeni Yemihlwathi. 2Entathakusa wabuyela ethempelini, bonke abantu beza kuye, wayesehlala phansi wabafundisa. 3Izazimthetho nabaFarisi baletha kuye owesifazane owayebanjwe oqotsheni, ephinga. Bammisa phakathi kwabo, 4bathi: “Mfundisi, lo wesifazane ubanjwe oqotsheni, ephinga. 5 Emthethweni, uMose wasiyala ngabanje ukuba bakhandwe ngamatshe. Ngakho-ke Wena uthini na?”
6 Babekusho lokhu bemlinga, ukuze babe notho lokummangalela. Kepha uJesu wakhothama, waloba ngomunwe emhlabathini. 7 Kuthe besambuza waphakama, wathi kubo: “Ongenasono phakathi kwenu makabe ngowokuqala ukumkhanda ngetshe.”
8Waphinde wakhothama, waloba emhlabathini.
9 Bathi ukuzwa lokho, baphuma ngamunye ngamunye, kuqala kwabadala kwaze kwaba ngabokugcina. UJesu wasala yedwa nowesifazane emile khona lapho. 10UJesu waphakama wathi kuye: “Sifazane, baphi labo abakumangaleleyo na? Akekho yini okulahla ngecala na?”
11 Waphendula, wathi: “Akukho noyedwa, Nkosi.”
UJesu wathi kuye: “Nami angikulahli ngacala. Hamba, ungabe usona.”
UJesu Ungukukhanya Kwezwe
12 Ngakho uJesu wabuye wakhuluma kubo, wathi: “Mina ngingukukhanya kwezwe. Ongilandelayo kasoze ahamba ebumnyameni, kodwa uyakuba nokukhanya kokuphila.”
13 Ngakho-ke abaFarisi bathi kuye: “Uyazifakazela Wena; ubufakazi bakho abusilo iqiniso.”
14UJesu waphendula, wathi kubo: “Ngisho noma ngizifakazela Mina, ubufakazi bami buyiqiniso, ngokuba ngiyazi ukuthi ngivelaphi nokuthi ngiyaphi. Nina anazi ukuthi ngivelaphi nokuthi ngiyaphi. 15 Nina nahlulela ngokwenyama, kodwa Mina angehluleli muntu. 16 Noma ngehlulela, ukwehlulela kwami kungokweqiniso, ngokuba angingedwa, kodwa yiMina nongithumileyo. 17 Kanjalo nasemthethweni wakini kulotshiwe ukuthi ubufakazi babantu ababili buyiqiniso. 18 Mina ngiyazifakazela, noBaba ongithumileyo ufazaka ngami.”
19 Base bethi kuye: “Uphi uyihlo na?”
UJesu waphendula, wathi: “Aningazi Mina kanjalo noBaba; ukuba beningazi Mina, beniyakumazi noBaba.”
20 Lawo mazwi wawakhuluma ngasemphongolweni weminikelo, efundisa ethempelini kodwa akukho muntu owambophayo, ngokuba isikhathi sakhe sasingakafiki.
21 Ngakho-ke wabuye wathi kubo: “Ngiyamuka Mina, niyakungifuna, kodwa niyakufela ezonweni zenu. Lapho ngiya khona Mina, anikwazi nina ukuza khona.”
22AbaJuda base bethi: “Ngabe uzakuzibulala yini nempela na? Ngokuba uthi: ‘Lapho ngiya khona Mina, anikwazi nina ukuza khona’ na?”
23 UJesu wathi kubo: “Nina ningabalapha ezweni, kodwa Mina ngingowaphezulu. Nina ningabaleli lizwe, kodwa Mina angisiye owaleli lizwe. 24 Ngakho-ke ngithe kini niyakufela ezonweni zenu, ngokuba uma ningakholwa ukuthi Mina Nginguye, niyakufela ezonweni zenu.”
25Base bethi kuye: “Kanti Wena ungubani na?”
UJesu waphendula, wathi kubo: “Ngiyilowo ebenginitshela ngaye kusukela kwasekuqaleni. 26 Nginokuningi engingakusho ngani nenginganehlulela ngakho, kodwa ongithumileyo uqinisile, nami lokho engikuzwa kuye, ngikukhuluma ezweni.”
27Babengazi ukuthi ukhuluma kubo ngoYise. 28 Ngakho-ke wathi kubo: “Uma seniyiphakamisile iNdodana yomuntu, kulapho-ke niyakukwazi ukuthi nginguye, nokuthi angenzi lutho ngokwami, kodwa ngikhuluma lokhu engikufundiswe nguBaba. 29 Ongithumileyo unami, kangishiyanga ngingedwa, ngokuba ngenza njalo okuthandekayo kuye.”
UJesu Uphendulana NabaJuda Ngo-Abhrahama
30Esakhuluma lokho, abaningi bakholwa kuye. 31 Ngakho-ke uJesu wakhuluma kubaJuda abase bekholwa kuye, wathi: “Uma nimi esifundisweni sami, ningabafundi bami uqobo, 32 niyakulazi iqiniso, neqiniso liyakunikhulula.”
33 Bamphendula, bathi: “Thina singabolibo luka-Abhrahama, asikaze sibe yizigqila zamuntu. Usho kanjani ukuthi: ‘Nizakuba ngabakhululekileyo’ na?”
34 UJesu wabaphendula, wathi: “Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile ngithi kini: yilowo nalowo owenza isono, uyisigqila sesono. 35 Isigqila asihlali nomndeni unomphela, kodwa indodana ehlala phakade. 36Ngakho-ke uma iNdodana inikhulula, niyakuba ngabakhululekileyo impela. 37Ngiyazi ukuthi ningabolibo luka-Abhrahama, kodwa nifuna ukungibulala, ngokuba izwi lami alinandawo kini. 38Ngikhuluma lokho engikubonileyo kuBaba; nani-ke nenza lokho enikuzwileyo kuyihlo.”
39 Baphendula, bathi kuye: “Ubaba wethu ngu-Abhrahama.”
UJesu wathi kubo: “Uma beningabantwana baka-Abhrahama beniyakukwenza imisebenzi ka-Abhrahama. 40Kepha manje nifuna ukungibulala, Mina muntu onitshele iqiniso, engilizwe kuNkulunkulu. U-Abhrahama akakwenzanga lokho. 41Nina nenza imisebenzi kayihlo.”
Bathi kuye: “Thina asisibo abantwana bokuphingwa; sinoBaba munye, uNkulunkulu.”
42 UJesu wathi kubo: “Uma uNkulunkulu ubenguYihlo, beniyakungithanda Mina, ngokuba ngivela kuNkulunkulu. Angizizelanga ngokwami, kodwa nguye ongithumileyo. 43 Kwenziwa yini ukuba ningayizwisisi inkulumo yami na? Yingokuba anifuni ukuzwa izwi lami. 44 Nina-ke ningabakayihlo usathane, nithanda ukufeza izifiso zakhe. Yena wayengumbulali kwasekuqaleni, akami eqinisweni, ngokuba iqiniso alikho kuye. Uma ekhuluma amanga, usuke ekhuluma into yakhe, ngokuba ungumqambimanga noyise wamanga. 45 Kepha ngenxa yokuba ngikhuluma iqiniso, aningikholwa. 46 Ngubani-ke kini ongadalula isono engisenzileyo na? Uma ngikhuluma iqiniso, pho aningikholwa ngani na? 47 Ovela kuNkulunkulu uyawezwa amazwi kaNkulunkulu, ngakho-ke nina aniwezwa, ngokuba anisibo abakaNkulunkulu.”
48 AbaJuda baphendula, bathi kuye: “Asikhulumi lona yini iqiniso uma sithi ungumSamariya futhi unedimoni na?”
49UJesu waphendula, wathi: “Anginadimoni, kodwa ngihlonipha uBaba, nina-ke niyangijivaza. 50Kepha angizifuneli udumo lwami, kodwa ukhona ofunayo nowahlulelayo. 51 Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile ngithi kini: uma umuntu egcina izwi lami, akasoze akubona ukufa nanini.”
52AbaJuda bathi kuye: “Manje sesiyazi ukuthi unedimoni. U-Abhrahama wafa, nabaphrofethi bafa, kepha wena-ke uthi: ‘Uma umuntu egcina izwi lami, akasoze akuzwa ukufa nanini.’ 53 Ngabe wena umkhulu yini kunobaba u-Abhrahama owafa na? Nabaphrofethi bafa. Pho wena uzenza bani na?”
54UJesu waphendula, wathi: “Uma ngizidumisa Mina, udumo lwami luyize. NguBaba onginika udumo, lo enikhuluma ngaye nithi unguNkulunkulu wenu. 55 Animazi, kodwa Mina ngiyamazi. Uma ngingathi angimazi, ngingaba ngumqambimanga njengani. Kepha ngiyamazi, ngigcina izwi lakhe. 56 U-Abhrahama, uyihlo, wathokoza ukuthi uzobona usuku lwami, walubona, wajabula.”
57AbaJuda bathi kuye: “Awukahlanganisi ngisho iminyaka engama-50, kanti sewake wambona yini u-Abhrahama na?”
58 UJesu wathi kubo: “Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile ngithi kini: engakabi bikho u-Abhrahama, ngangikhona Mina.”
59 Base becosha amatshe ukuze bamkhande ngawo, kodwa uJesu wafihlakala kubo, waphuma ethempelini.
