Deli

“Ngako-ke ngikutjela ngitsi: Tono takhe lebetitinyenti setitsetselelwe, ngobe unelutsandvo lolukhulu, kodvwa lowo lotsetselelwe lokuncane, utsandza kancane.” Wase utsi kulomfati: “Tono takho titsetselelwe.”

Kodvwa Jesu wase utsi kulomfati: “Kukholwa kwakho kukusindzisile, hamba ngekuthula.”

wafike wema emvakwaJesu, ngasetinyaweni takhe akhala, taze tinyawo taJesu taba manti tinyembeti. Watesula ngetinwele takhe lomfati, watanga, watitsela ngemakha.

ngako-ke, ngitikhandza ngingakafaneli nekutsi ngite kuwe. Mane usho livi nje, sisebenti sami sitawuphila. Nami ngiyindvuna lephetfwe ngulabakhulu, nginemabutfo lengiwaphetse, ngitsi kulelinye: ‘Hamba!’ lihambe; ngitsi kulelinye: ‘Wota!’ lite; ngitsi esigcilini sami: ‘Yenta naku!’ sikwente.” Jesu wamangala nakeva loku, wagucuka wabuka lesicumbi sebantfu lesasimlandzela watsi: “Angizange sengikubone kukholwa lokungaka ngisho naka-Israyeli imbala.”

Ngaso leso sikhatsi Jesu waphilisa labanyenti labebaphetfwe ngimikhuhlane, netifo, nemadimoni, wavula emehlo etimphumphutse letinyenti. Titfunywa taJohane watiphendvula watsi: “Ncandzekani nifike nimtjele konkhe lenikubone kwenteka nalenikuvile kukhulunywa: Timphumphutse tiyabona, tinchute netishosha tiyahamba, emalephelo ayaphiliswa, tihhulu tiyeva, labafile bayavuswa, neliVangeli liyashunyayelwa etimphuyeni.
