17. Kwakuhlwa, wafika uYesu, enabafundi bakhe abalishumi elinambini.
18. Bakuba behleli besitya, uYesu wathi kubo: “Ndithi kuni, inene, omnye kuni apha, nina nityayo kunye nam, uya kundingcatsha.”
19. Baza ke baba buhlungu, besithi kuye ngabanye ngabanye: “Ngaba iya kuba ndim na? Ngaba iya kuba ndim na?”
20. Waphendula ke wathi kubo: “Iya kuba ngomnye kubafundi abalishumi elinambini, lowo usithi nkxu kunye nam isonka esityeni.
21. Okunene *uNyana woLuntu uyemka, njengoko zitshoyo ngaye *iziBhalo; kodwa hayi loo mntu angcatshwa nguye uNyana woLuntu! Ngekumlungele ukuba ebengazalwanga.”
22. Xa babesitya, uYesu wathatha isonka, wabulela, wasiqhekeza, wabanika, wathi: “Thathani nitye; ngumzimba wam lo.”
23. Wathatha nendebe, wabulela, wabanika, basela kuyo bonke.
24. Wathi ke kubo: “Ligazi lam eli elitywina umnqophiso, eliphalazwa ngenxa yabaninzi.
25. Ndithi kuni, inene, andiyi kuphinda ndisele kwincindi yomdiliya, kude kube yiloo mini ndiyisela intsha kwikomkhulu likaThixo.”
26. Bakuba becule indumiso, baphuma baya eNtabeni yemiNquma.
27. UYesu wathi kubo: “Ndiya kuba sisikhubekiso kuni nonke, kuba *iziBhalo zithi: ‘Ndiya kubulala umalusi, zichithakale iigusha!’
28. Xa ke ndithe ndavuswa ekufeni, ndiya kunandulela ukuya kwelaseGalili.”
29. Wathi ke uPetros kuye: “Nokuba baya kukhubeka bonke, mna andingekhe!”
