UJesu usilisa isigulane eBethesda

5Emva kwalezizinto kwaba khona umkhosi wamaJudaa; uJesu wasesenyukela eJerusalemab.

2 Kwakukhona-ke lapho eJerusalema eduze lesango lezimvu ichibi, elithiwa ngesiHebheru iBethesda, lilamakhulusi amahlanuc. 3 Kwakulele kuwo ixuku elikhulu labagulayo, eleziphofu, eleziqhuli, elabatshwabheneyod, belindele ukuzanyanzanyiswa kwamanzi. 4 Ngoba ingilosi yayisehlela echibini ngezikhathi ezithilee, izamazamise amanzi; kuthi lowo ongene kuqala emva kokuzanyazanyiswa kwamanzi, asiliswe, loba yisiphi isifo ebesimbambile. 5 Njalo kwakukhona lapho umuntu othile owayelesifo okweminyaka engamatshumi amathathu leyisificaminwembili. 6 Kwathi uJesu embona elele, esazi ukuthi ulesikhathi eside enjalo, wathi kuye: Uyafuna ukuthi uphile yini? 7 Ogulayo wamphendula wathi: Nkosi, kangilamuntu wokungifaka echibini, nxa amanzi ezanyazanyiswa; kuthi nxa ngizayo mina, kwehle omunye phambi kwami. 8 UJesu wathi kuye: Sukuma, uthathe icansi lakho, uhambef. 9 Lowomuntu wahle waphila, wathatha icansi lakhe wahamba.

Njalo kwakulisabatha mhlalokhog. 10 Ngakho amaJuda athi kosilisiweyo: Kulisabathah; ngakho kawuvunyelwa ukuthwala icansii. 11 Wawaphendula wathi: Ongiphilisileyo, yena uthe kimi: Thatha icansi lakho uhambe. 12 Ngakho ambuza: Ngubani umuntu othe kuwe: Thatha icansi lakho uhambe? 13 Kodwa osilisiweyo wayengamazi ukuthi ungubani; ngoba uJesu wayesesithele, ngoba kukhona ixuku kuleyondawo. 14 Emva kwalezizinto uJesu wamfica ethempelini, wasesithi kuye: Khangela usuphilile; ungabe usona futhij, hlezi kwehle kuwe okunye okubi kulalokhuk. 15 Umuntu wasuka, watshela amaJuda ukuthi nguJesu owayemenze waphilal. 16 Njalo ngenxa yalokhu amaJuda amzingela uJesum, asedinga ukumbulalan, ngoba wenza lezizinto ngesabathao.

17 Kodwa uJesu wawaphendula wathip: UBaba uyasebenza kuze kube lamuhlaq, lami ngiyasebenzar. 18 Ngenxa yalokhu-ke amaJudas adinga kakhulu ukumbulalat, ngoba wayengephulanga isabatha kuphelau, kodwa wabuya wathi uNkulunkuluv unguYise wakhew, ezenza olingana loNkulunkulux.

UJesu uyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu

19 UJesu wasephendula wathi kuboy: Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini: INdodana ingenze lutho ngokwayo, ngaphandle kwalokho ebona uYise ekwenza; ngoba loba yini yena ayenzayo, leNdodana iyenza lezizinto ngokunjaloz. 20 Ngoba uYise uyayithanda iNdodana, uyayitshengisa konke akwenzayo yenaa; njalo uzayitshengisa imisebenzi emikhulu kulale, ukuze lina limangaleb. 21 Ngoba njengalokhu uYise evusa abafileyo abaphilisec, kunjalo-ke leNdodana iyabaphilisa labo ethandad ukubaphilisa. 22 Ngoba loYise kahluleli muntu, kodwa unike iNdodana konkee ukwahlulelaf; 23 ukuze bonke badumise iNdodana, njengalokhu bedumisa uYiseg. Ongayidumisiyo iNdodana, kamdumisi uYise oyithumileyoh.

24 Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini: Olizwayo ilizwi lami, akholwe kuye ongithumileyo, ulempilo elaphakade; njalo kangeni ekulahlwenii, kodwa usedlule ekufeni waya empilwenij. 25 Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini: Ihola liyeza, njalo selikhonak, lapho abafileyo bezalizwal ilizwi leNdodana kaNkulunkulu, lalabo abalizwileyo bazaphilam. 26 Ngoba njengoba uYise elempilo ngokwakhe, kunjalo uyinikile layo iNdodana ukuthi ibe lempilo ngokwayon; 27 njalo uyiphileo amandlap lawokwahlulelaq, ngoba iyiNdodana yomuntur. 28 Lingamangali ngalokhus; ngoba ihola liyeza, lapho bonke abasemangcwabeni bazalizwa ilizwi layot, 29 babesebephumau, labo abenzev okulungileyow, ekuvukeni kwempilo; lalabo abenze okubi, ekuvukeni kokulahlwaxy.

Abafakazi bakaJesu

30 Mina ngingenze lutho ngokwamiz; njengokuzwa kwami, ngiyahlulela; njalo ukwahlulela kwami kulungile; ngoba kangidingi intando yamia, kodwa intando kaBaba ongithumileyob.

31 Aluba ngizifakazela mina, ubufakazi bami abusiloqinisoc. 32 Ukhona omunye ongifakazelayo minad, njalo ngiyazi ukuthi ubufakazi abufakaza ngami buliqinisoe. 33 Lina lathumela kuJohanef, walifakazela iqinisog. 34 Kodwa mina kangibemukeli ubufakazi obuvela emuntwini, kodwa ngitsho lezizinto ukuze lina lisindisweh. 35 Yena wayeyisibanei esivuthayoj lesikhanyayok, lani lavuma ukuthokoza okwesikhatshana ekukhanyeni kwakhel.

36 Kodwa mina ngilobufakazi obukhulu kulobukaJohanem; ngoba imisebenzin uBaba anginike yona ukuze ngiyiqede, yonale imisebenzi mina engiyenzayoo, iyangifakazela ukuthi uBaba ungithumilep. 37 Laye uBaba ongithumileyoq, yena ungifakazeler. Kalikaze lilizwe ilizwi lakhe laninis, lesimo sakhe kalikaze lisibonet, 38 njalo kalilalizwi lakhe elihlala phakathi kwenu, ngoba amthumileyo yena, lowo lina kalimkholwau. 39 Hlolani imibhalo, ngoba lina licabanga ukuthi lilempilo elaphakade kiyov, njalo yiyo engifakazelayow; 40 kodwa kalivumi ukuza kimi, ukuze libe lempilox.

41 Angemukeli udumo ebantwiniy; 42 kodwa ngiyalazi linaz, ukuthi kalilalo uthando lukaNkulunkulu phakathi kwenua. 43 Mina ngizile ebizweni likaBaba, kodwa kalingemukelib; uba omunye esiza ngelakhe ibizo, lizamemukela yenac. 44 Lingakholwa njani lina, nxa lisemukela udumo omunye komunyed, kodwa lingaludingi udumo oluvela kuNkulunkulue oyedwaf?

45 Lingacabangi ukuthi mina ngizalimangalela kuBabag; ukhona olimangalelayo, uMozisih, elithemba kuye linai. 46 Ngoba uba belikholwa uMozisi, belizakholwa mina; ngoba yena wabhala ngamij. 47 Kodwa uba lingakholwa imibhalo yakhek, lizakholwa njani amazwi amil?
