Ukuvalelisa kukaJesu

16 Okwesikhatshana futhi kaliyikungibonal, kubuye kube yisikhatshana libe selingibonam, ngoba mina ngiya kuBaban. 17 Ngakho abanye kubafundi bakhe bakhulumisana besithi: Kuyini lokho akutsho kithi: Okwesikhatshana, futhi kaliyikungibona, kubuye kube yisikhatshana libe selingibona; lokuthi: Ngoba mina ngiya kuBabao? 18 Basebesithi: Kuyini lokhu akutshoyo ukuthi: Okwesikhatshana? Kasazi ukuthi utshoni.

19 UJesu wayesesazi ukuthi babethanda ukumbuzap, wasesithi kubo: Liyabuzana ngalokho yini, ukuthi ngithe: Okwesikhatshana futhi kaliyikungibona, kubuye kube yisikhatshana libe selingibonaq? 20 Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini: Lina lizakhala lililer, kodwa umhlaba uzathokoza; futhi lizakuba losizi lina, kodwa usizi lwenu luzaphendulwa lube yintokozos. 21 Owesifazana nxa ebeletha ulobuhlungu, ngoba ihola lakhe selifikile; kodwa nxa esebelethe usane, kasakhumbuli ubuhlungu, ngenxa yentokozo yokuthi kuzelwe umuntu emhlabenit. 22 Ngakho lani-ke lilosizi khathesiu; kodwa ngizabuya ngilibone, lenhliziyo yenu ithokoze, njalo kakho ongalemuka intokozo yenuv.

23 Langalolosuku kaliyikungibuza luthow. Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini: Loba kuyini elizakucela kuBaba ebizweni lami uzalinikax. 24 Kuze kube khathesi kalicelanga lutho ebizweni lami; celani, lizakwemukeliswa, ukuze intokozo yenu igcwaley.

25 Ngikhulume izinto lezi kini ngemifanekiso; kodwa isikhathi siyeza lapho ngingasayikukhuluma kini ngemifanekiso, kodwa ngizalitshela ngoBaba ngokucacileyoz. 26 Ngalolosuku lizacela ebizweni lami; njalo kangitsho kini ukuthi ngizalicelela mina kuBabaa; 27 ngoba uBaba uqobo uyalithanda, ngoba lina lingithandileb, likholiwec ukuthi mina ngiphume kuNkulunkulude. 28 Ngiphume kuBaba, njalo ngeza emhlabenifg; ngiyasuka futhi emhlabeni, ngiya kuBabah.

29 Abafundi bakhe bathi kuye: Khangela khathesi ukhuluma ngokucacileyoi, njalo kawukhulumi lamfanekiso. 30 Khathesi siyazi ukuthi uyazi izinto zonke, njalo kawudingi ukuthi umuntu akubuzej; ngalokhu siyakholwak ukuthi uphume kuNkulunkululm. 31 UJesu wabaphendula wathi: Selikholwa yinin? 32 Khangelani, ihola liyeza, yebo selifikileo, elokuthi lihlakazekep ngulowo lalowoq aye kubo, lingitshiye ngingedwar; kanti kangingedwa, ngoba uBaba ulamis. 33 Ngikhulume lezizinto kini, ukuze libe lokuthula kimit. Emhlabeni lizakuba lenhluphekou; kodwa manini isibindiv, mina ngiwunqobile umhlabaw.
