Ukuvuka kwakaJesu
(Mk 16:1-10; Lk 24:1-12; Jwan 20:1-10)
1Ngemva kweSabatha, ngamasa welanga lokuthoma leveke, uMariya Magdalina nomunye uMariya bakhamba bayokuhlola ethuneni. 2Khonokho kwaba khona ukusikinyeka kwephasi okukhulu ngombana kwehla ingilozi kaSomnini ivela ezulwini, yaya ethuneni yafese yageda ilitje yalisusa, yahlala phezu kwalo. 3Ubujamo bayo bebunjengombani, izambatho zayo zimhlophe njengeliqhwa. 4Abalindi besaba khulu bebaqhaqhazela, baba njengabantu abafileko.
5Ingilozi yakhuluma nabafazi yathi: “Ningesabi ngombana ngiyazi bona nifuna uJesu obekabethelwe esiphambanweni. 6Akakho lapha; uvukile njengombana agade atjhwile. Yizani nganeno nizokubona lapha bekalele khona. 7Nanisuka lapha nirhabe niyokutjela abafundi bakhe, nithi, ‘Uvukile ekufeni, nje-ke usendleleni yokuya eGalile ngaphambi kwenu. Nizakumbona lapho.’ Qalani nginitjelile.”
8Yeke abafazi basuka msinyana ethuneni banokwesaba, kodwana khonapho baphuphuma ithabo, bagijima bayokutjela abafundi bakhe.
9Msinyana uJesu wahlangana nabo wathi: “Lotjhani!” Batjhidela, bambamba eenyaweni, bamkhothamela. 10Yeke uJesu wathi kibo: “Ningesabi. Khambani niyokutjela abafowethu bonyana baye eGalile, bazangibona lapho.”
Umbiko wabalindi
11Kwathi abafazi basesendleleni, abanye babalindi bangena ngedorobheni bayokubikela abaphristi abakhulu ngakho koke okwenzakeleko. 12Nasele abaphristi abakhulu bahlangene nabaphathi benza neqhinga, banikela amajoni imali enengi, 13bathi kiwo: “Nifike nithi, ‘Sithe sisabanjwe sithongwana phakathi kobusuku, abafundi bakhe bafika beba isidumbu sakhe.’ 14Nakube umbiko lo ufika kumbusi, sizamanelisa ukuze nina ningangeni ekingeni.”
15Yeke amajoni athatha imali, enza njengombana bekayaliwe. Nje-ke umbiko lo warhatjheka emaJudeni woke ngitjho nanamhlanjesi.
UJesu uzibonakalisa ebafundini bakhe
(Mk 16:14-18; Lk 24:36-49; Jwan 20:19-23; izEn 1:6-8)
16Abafundi abalitjhumi nanye baya eGalile entabeni lapha uJesu abatjele bona baye khona. 17Kwathi nabambonako, bamkhothamela kodwana abanye bazaza. 18Yeke uJesu watjhidela kibo wathi: “Nginikelwe woke amandla ezulwini nephasini. 19Ngalokho khambani niye ebantwini boke nanyana kukuphi, nibenze abafundi; babhabhadiseni ebizweni lakaBaba neNdodana noMoya oCwengileko, 20nibafundise ukwenza koke enginiyale ngakho. Ngambala nginani njalo bekube sekupheleni kwesikhathi.”
