Yizani nibulele kukumkani; 8 Kuthe ke, bakukuba buhlungu, bengavumi ukuza, aba bafana babatsala, babanyanzela ukuba bangezi. 9 Akufika ke eNkosini uYesu, yawabuza esithi, Bembethelwe yintoni na umntwana lowo? 10 Ke kaloku, akuba ephendulile, ukuba inyoka imlumile, yathi iNkosi uYesu kubafana, Masihambe siye kuyibulala loo nyoka. 11 Ke kaloku, bakubon’ ukuba bayakhululwa abazali bomntwana, ngokuba unyana wabo ebeza kufa; Aphendula amakhwenkwe, athi, Anikuvanga na akutshoyo ukumkani? Masihambe siye kubulala inyoka; Aniyi kumthobela na? 12 Bawubuyisela ke ukhuko, enoba bathanda okanye akunjalo. 13 Bakufika ke endlwaneni, yathi iNkosi uYesu kubantwana, Ingaba yindawo yokubutha inyoka na le? Bathi, Ibinjalo. 14 Yathi iNkosi uYesu, yabiza inyoka, yaphuma kwaoko, yamthobela; awathi kuyo, Hamba uye kuwufunxa wonke ubuthi obuwufakileyo kule nkwenkwe; 15 Yathi inyoka kumfana, yabuya yabuthabatha bonke ubuthi bayo. 16 Ke kaloku iNkosi uYesu wayiqalekisa inyoka, ngoko nangoko, yagqabhuka kubini, yafa. 17 Wamchukumisa umntwana lowo ngesandla sakhe, ukuba ambuyisele ebubomini bakhe bokuqala; 18 Uthe ke akuqala ukudanduluka, yathi iNkosi uYesu, Musa ukukhala; ngokuba uya kuba ngumfundi wam emveni koku; 19 Lo nguSimon umKanan, lowo ekuthethwa ngaye kuzo iindaba ezilungileyo. ISAHLUKO SE-19 1 Ngenye imini uYosefu wathuma unyana wakhe uYakobi ukuba aye kutheza iinkuni, yaza iNkosi uYesu yahamba naye; 2 Bakufika kuloo ndawo ibikuyo ihlathi, eqala ukuyibutha uYakobi, kwathi gqi irhamba elibuhlungu, kangangokuba wakhala nokuxokozela.
3 INkosi uYesu, yambona ekuloo meko, yeza kuye, yaza yavuthela kwindawo ebilunywe yinyoka kuyo, kwaphila oko. 4 Ke kaloku, ngamini ithile, iNkosi uYesu yayinamakhwenkwe adlala phezu kwendlu, yawa enye yazo, yafa kwangoko. 5 Xa onke amakhwenkwe asabayo, iNkosi uYesu yasala yodwa phezu kwendlu. 6 Beza ke abazalana bomntwana kuye, bathi kwiNkosi uYesu, Umkhuphele phantsi unyana wethu phezu kwendlu; 7 Kodwa wakukhanyela, bakhala, besithi, Unyana wethu ufile, lo nguye umbulaliyo. 8Yabaphendula ke iNkosi uYesu, yathi, Musani ukundimangalela ngetyala eningenako ukundigweba ngalo; masiye kubuza yena umntwana lowo, oya kuyityhila inyaniso. 9 Isihla ke iNkosi uYesu, yema phezu kwentloko yofileyo, yathetha ngezwi elikhulu, yathi, Zeinunus, Zeinunus, ngubani na owakujulayo phantsi phezu kwendlu? 10 Waphendula ke ofileyo, wathi, Akundiphosanga phantsi; 11 Yaye xa iNkosi uYesu yayiyalela abo babemi apho ukuba bawanikele ingqalelo amazwi ayo, bonke ababelapho bamdumisa uThixo ngenxa yaloo mmangaliso. 12 Ngaxa lithile iNenekazi eliNgcwele uMariya layalela iNkosi uYesu ukuba iyikhuphele amanzi equleni; 13 Esaya kukha amanzi, waqhekeza umphanda, wazala wazala. 14 Uthe ke uYesu, wayaneka ingubo yakhe, wabuya wawabutha amanzi, wawazisa kunina. 15 Wathi, emangalisiwe yile nto imangalisayo, wayibeka enkumbulo yakhe le nto, nazo zonke ezinye izinto awazibonayo. 16 Kwakhona, ngenye imini iNkosi uYesu yayinamakhwenkwe athile ngasemlanjeni, baza bakha amanzi ngemijelo emincinane emlanjeni, benza amachibi amancinane okuloba iintlanzi. 17 Kodwa iNkosi uYesu yenza oongqatyana abalishumi elinababini, yababeka ngasechibini layo ngapha nangapha, abathathu ngapha. 18 Ke kaloku, bekuyisabatha, kufike unyana kaHanani, umYuda, wababona besenza ezo zinto, wathi, Ize nenjenjalo nje imizekeliso ngodongwe ngesabatha? wabalekela kubo, wawaqhekeza amachibi abo. 19 Ke kaloku, yakuba iNkosi uYesu iqhwabe izandla phezu koongqatyana ebibenzile, babaleka benkqangaza. 20 Ekuhambeni kwexesha unyana kaHanani weza echibini likaYesu ukuze atshabalalise, athi shwaka amanzi, yaye iNkosi uYesu yathi kuye: 21 Njengokuba la manzi athe shwaka, ùya kuthi shwaka ubomi bakho; wafa kwangoko umntwana. 22 Ngesinye isihlandlo, xa iNkosi uYesu yayifika noYosefu ngokuhlwa, yadibana nenkwenkwana eyabaleka kakhulu kuyo, yaza yamphosa phantsi; 23 Eyathi kubo iNkosi uYesu, Njengokuba wandiphosa phantsi, uya kuwa ngokunjalo, akuyi kubuya uvuke. 24 Yawa phantsi inkwenkwe kwangelo xesha, yafa. ISAHLUKO 20 1Ke kaloku bekukho eYerusalem umntu ogama linguZakeyu, umfundisi-ntsapho. 2 Wathi kuYosefu, Yosefu, yini na ukuba ungamthumi uYesu eze kum, afunde iincwadi zakhe? 3 UYosefu wavuma, waxelela uMariya oNgcwele; 4 Bamzisa ke kuloo nkosi; owathi, kamsinya nje akumbona, wambhalela ialfabhethi. 5 Kwaye wathi kuye, Alefe; Wathi ke uAlefe, inkosi yathi kuye makabize iBhete. 6 Ithe ke iNkosi uYesu kuye, Khawundixelele intsingiselo yale leta uAlefe, ndandule ke ukubiza iBhete; 7 Yaye xa inkosi yamsongela ngokumtyakatya, iNkosi uYesu yamcacisela intsingiselo yoonobumba uAlefe noBhete; 8 Yayingayiphi na ke imizekeliso yombhalo othe tye, lowo wawunyibilikisile, ube ngoonobumba abaphi na? enamanqaku, yona ingenawo; kwakutheni ukuze ileta ihambe kuqala kwenye; Waza waqala ukumchazela nezinye izinto ezininzi, ecacisa, ezo
umnini-sikazi ngokwakhe engazivanga, engazifundanga nakulesa nakuyiphi na incwadi. 9 Ithe ke ngoko iNkosi uYesu kumfundisi, Khawubone ukuba ndithini na kuwe. emva koko waqala ngokucacileyo nangokucacileyo ukuthi Alefe, iBhete, iGimele, iDalete, njalo njalo ukuya ekupheleni kwealfabhethi. 10 Yamangaliswa inkosi, yathi, Ndiyakholwa ukuba lo mntwana wazalwa engekabikho uNowa; 11 Wathi guququ kuYosefu, wathi, Undizisele umntwana oyinkwenkwe, oyena uphakamileyo uqiqa ngaphezu kweenkosi zonke. 12 Uthe ke nakuMariya, Lo nyana wakho akaswele kufunda. 13 Bamzisa ke kumninimzi owazi kakuhle; 14 Wathi uAlefe; yathi inkosi kuye, makabize yiBhete; Yathi iNkosi uYesu, ndixeleleni kuqala ukutyhilwa kwale leta, ndandule ke ukubiza iBhete; 15 Yathi ke inkosi le, yasiphakamisa isandla sayo ukuba imtyakatse, yasuka yoma kwangoko isandla, yafa. 16 Wathi ke uYosefu kuMariya ongcwele, emveni koku, asisayi kumvumela ukuba aphume endlwini; kuba bonke abangamthandiyo bayabulawa.
21 Yaphakama ke loo mini intanda, yaqubuda kwiNkosi uYesu, yathi, Nkosi Yesu, kuthabathela kweli xesha, ndiya kuba ngumfundi wakho nesicaka sakho. 22 Ke kaloku, bakubon' ukuba bayaxoxa ngale ndawo, yafika intombi enguMariya, ihambahamba noYosefu iintsuku ezintathu, imfuna. 23 Wambona ehleli phakathi koogqirha, wabuzana kubo, ephendula, wathi kuye, Nyana wam, yini na ukuba usenjenje? Uyabona, mna noyihlo besikulangazelela kakhulu; 24 Wathi kubo, Benindifunani na? Beningazi na, ukuba ndimelwe kukuthi ndibe ngumsebenzi wendlu kabawo? 25 Kodwa bona abawaqondanga amazwi awayewathetha kubo. 26 Ogqirha bambuza ke uMariya, besithi, Lo ngunyana wakhe na? Bathi ke bona, Unguye, bathi, Owu Mariya onoyolo, ozele unyana onjalo. 27 Wabuya ke nabo, waya eNazarete, ebalulamela ezintweni zonke. 28 Wazigcina ke unina zonke ezo zinto engqondweni yakhe; 29 Ke kaloku iNkosi uYesu yakhula ngokukhula, nangobulumko, nokuthandeka kuThixo nasebantwini.
