6 Ninganiki izinja okungcwele, ningaphonsi amaparele enu phambi kwezingulube, funa ziwanyathele ngezinyawo zazo, ziphenduke, ziniklebhule.

10 Noma icela inhlanzi, ayinike inyoka na?
11 Ngakho-ke uma nina enibabi nikwazi ukubapha abantwana benu izipho ezinhle, kakhulu kangakanani uYihlo osezulwini uzakubapha okuhle abacela kuye na?
12 Ngakho-ke zonke izinto enifuna ukuba abantu bakwenze kini, kwenzeni nani kanjalo kubo, ngokuba lokhu kungumthetho nabaprofethi.
13 Ngenani ngesango elincane, ngokuba libanzi isango, nendlela ibanzi eyisa ekubhujisweni, baningi abangena ngayo;
14 Ngokuba isango lincane, nendlela iyingcingo eyisa ekuphileni, bambalwa abayitholayo.
15 Xwayani abaprofethi bamanga abeza kini bembathise okwezimvu, kepha ngaphakathi beyizimpisi eziphangayo.
16 Niyakubazi ngezithelo zabo. Abantu bakha izithelo zomvini emeveni noma amakhiwane emakhakhasini na?
17 Kanjalo yonke imithi emihle ithela izithelo ezinhle; kodwa isihlahla esibi sithela izithelo ezimbi.
18 Umuthi omuhle ungethele izithelo ezimbi, nomuthi omubi ungethele izithelo ezinhle.
19 Yilowo nalowomuthi ongatheli izithelo ezinhle uyanqunywa, uphonswe emlilweni.
20 Ngakho-ke niyakubazi ngezithelo zabo.
21 Akusibo bonke abathi kimi: Nkosi, Nkosi, abayakungena embusweni wezulu; kodwa lowo owenza intando kaBaba osezulwini.
22 Abaningi bayakuthi kimi ngalolo suku: Nkosi, Nkosi, asiprofethanga yini egameni lakho na? ngegama lakho bakhipha amademoni na? futhi ngegama lakho senze izimangaliso eziningi na?
23 Khona ngiyakufakaza kubo ukuthi: Angizange nginazi; sukani kimi nina benzi bokubi.
24 Ngakho yilowo nalowo owezwa lawa mazwi ami, awenze, uyakufaniswa nendoda ehlakaniphileyo eyakha indlu yayo phezu kwedwala;
25 Layithela imvula, kwafika izikhukhula, kwavunguza imimoya, yayishaya kuleyo ndlu; kepha kayiwa, ngokuba yayisekelwe phezu kwedwala.
26 Njalo yilowo nalowo owezwa lawa mazwi ami, angawenzi, uyakufaniswa nendoda eyisiwula eyakha indlu yayo phezu kwesihlabathi;
27 Layithela imvula, kwafika izikhukhula, kwavunguza imimoya, yayishaya kuleyo ndlu; yawa: kwaba kukhulu ukuwa kwayo.
28 Kwathi uJesu eseqedile lawo mazwi, izixuku zamangala ngokufundisa kwakhe.
29 Ngokuba wabafundisa njengonegunya, kungenjengababhali.

Luka 11 : 1 – 54
1 Kwasekusithi ekhuleka endaweni ethile, eseqedile, omunye wabafundi bakhe wathi kuye: Nkosi, sifundise ukukhuleka, njengoba uJohane laye wafundisa abafundi bakhe.
2 Wathi kubo: “Nxa nikhuleka, anothi: ‘Baba wethu osezulwini, malingcweliswe igama lakho. Umbuso wakho mawuze. Mayenziwe intando yakho emhlabeni njengasezulwini.
3 Usiphe isinkwa sethu semihla ngemihla;
4 Usithethelele izono zethu; ngoba lathi sibathethelela bonke abalecala kithi. Ungasingenisi ekulingweni; kodwa usikhulule kokubi.
5 Wathi kubo: “Ngumuphi kini ongathi enomngane, aye kuye phakathi kobusuku, athi kuye: ‘Mngane, ngiboleke izinkwa ezintathu;
6 Ngokuba kufike kimi umngane wami ohambweni, kepha ngingenalutho engingambeka phambi kwakhe na?
7 Ophakathi aphendule athi: Ungangihluphi; anginakuvuka ngikunike.
8 Ngithi kini: Noma engazukuvuka amnike, ngokuba engumngane wakhe, nokho ngenxa yokuphikelela kwakhe uyakuvuka amnike konke akudingayo.
9 Lami ngithi kini: Celani, lizaphiwa; funani, niyakufumana; ngqongqothani, lizavulelwa.
10 Ngokuba yilowo nalowo ocelayo uyaphiwa; nalowo ofunayo uyathola; lalowo oqoqodayo uzavulelwa.
11 Uma indodana icela isinkwa kunoma ubani kini onguyise, ayinike itshe na? noma icela inhlanzi, ayinike inyoka esikhundleni senhlanzi na?
12 Noma uma icela iqanda, ayinike ufezela na?
13 Ngakho-ke uma nina enibabi nikwazi ukubapha abantwana benu izipho ezinhle, kakhulu kangakanani uYihlo osezulwini uzakubapha abacela kuye uMoya oNgcwele na?
14 Wayekhipha idemoni, elaliyisimungulu. Kwasekusithi seliphumile idimoni, isimungulu sakhuluma; bamangala abantu.
15 Kepha abanye kubo bathi: “Ukhipha amademoni ngoBelzebule inkosi yamademoni.
16 Abanye bemlinga, bafuna kuye isibonakaliso esivela ezulwini.
17 Kodwa yena eyazi imicabango yabo wathi kubo: Wonke umbuso owehlukene phakathi uyachitheka; nendlu ehlukene nendlu iyawa.
18 Uma noSathane ehlukene yedwa, umbuso wakhe uyakuma kanjani na? ngokuba nithi ngikhipha amademoni ngoBelzebule.
19 Uma mina ngikhipha amademoni ngoBelzebule, amadodana enu awakhipha ngobani na? ngalokho bayakuba ngabahluleli benu.
20 Kepha uma ngikhipha amademoni ngomunwe kaNkulunkulu, umbuso kaNkulunkulu usufikile kini.
21 Nxa isiqhwaga sihlomile silinda isigodlo saso, impahla yaso ihlezi ngokuthula;
22 Kepha nxa onamandla kunaso esisukela, asinqobe, uyasephuca izikhali zaso zonke ebesizithembile, ayabe impango yaso.
23 Ongenami umelene nami, nongabuthi kanye nami uyahlakaza.
24 Nxa umoya ongcolileyo esephumile kumuntu, uyadabula izindawo ezomileyo efuna ukuphumula; engakutholi uthi: Ngizabuyela endlini yami engaphuma kuyo.
25 Esefikile ayifice ishaneliwe, ihlotshisiwe.
26 Khona uyahamba uzithathele abanye omoya abayisikhombisa ababi kakhulu kunawo; bangene bahlale khona; isimo sokugcina salowo muntu sibe sibi kunesokuqala.
27 Kwasekusithi ekhuluma lezizinto, owesifazana othile esixukwini waphakamisa ilizwi, wathi kuye: Sibusisiwe isibeletho esakuthwalayo, lamabele owawancelayo.
28 Kodwa yena wathi: Yebo kodwa kakhulu babusisiwe abalizwayo ilizwi likaNkulunkulu, baligcine.
29 Kwathi sesibuthene izixuku, waqala ukuthi: “Lesi sizukulwane esibi, sifuna isibonakaliso; futhi kasiyikunikwa sibonakaliso, ngaphandle kwesibonakaliso sikaJona umprofethi.
30 Ngokuba njengalokho uJona waba yisibonakaliso kwabaseNineve, iyakuba njalo iNdodana yomuntu kulesi sizukulwane.
31 Indlovukazi yaseningizimu iyakusukuma ekwahlulelweni kanye nabantu balesi sizukulwane, ibalahle; ngokuba yavela emikhawulweni yomhlaba izokuzwa ukuhlakanipha kukaSolomoni; futhi bhekani, lapha kukhona omkhulu kunoSolomoni.
32 Amadoda aseNineve ayakusukuma ekwahlulelweni kanye nalesi sizukulwane, asilahle; ngokuba aphenduka ngokushumayela kukaJona; bhekani, lapha kukhona omkhulu kunoJona.
33 Akakho othi esokhela isibani, asibeke endaweni ekusithekileyo, noma ngaphansi kwesitsha, kodwa usibeka othini lwesibani, ukuze abangenayo babone ukukhanya.
34 Ukukhanya komzimba yisehlo; ngakho-ke nxa iso lakho lilihle, nomzimba wakho wonke uyakukhanya; kepha nxa iso lakho lilibi, nomzimba wakho ubumnyama.
35 Ngakho qaphela ukuba ukukhanya okukuwe kungabi ngubumnyama.
36 Ngakho uma umzimba wakho wonke ugcwele ukukhanya, ungenandawo emnyama, uyakuba nokukhanya wonke, njengalapho ukukhanya kwesibani sikukhanyisela.
37 Esakhuluma, umFarisi othile wamncenga ukuba adle naye;
38 Kwathi ekubona lokho umFarisi wamangala ngokuthi kazange aqale ageze engakadli.
39 INkosi yathi kuye: “Manje nina baFarisi nihlambulula ingaphandle lenkezo nojeke; kepha ingaphakathi lakho ligcwele ukuphanga nobubi.
40 Ziwula, yena owenza okungaphandle akakwenzanga nengaphakathi na?
41 Kepha yiphani abampofu lokho eninakho; futhi bhekani, zonke izinto zihlanzekile kini.
42 Kodwa maye kini baFarisi! Ngokuba ninikela okweshumi kweminti neruwe nemifino yonke, ningakunaki ukwahlulela nothando lukaNkulunkulu;
43 Maye kinina baFarisi! ngoba lithanda izihlalo eziphambili emasinagogeni, lokubingelelwa emidangeni.
44 Maye kinina babhali nabaFarisi, bazenzisi! ngokuba ninjengamathuna angabonakali, nabantu abahamba phezu kwawo bengawazi.
45 Esinye sezazimthetho saphendula, sathi kuye: “Mfundisi, usho njalo uyasihlambalaza nathi.
46 Wathi: “Maye kinina zazimthetho! Ngokuba nithwesa abantu imithwalo enzima, kepha nina ngokwenu aniyithinti imithwalo nangomunye weminwe yenu.
47 Maye kini! ngokuba nakha amathuna abaprofethi, kepha oyihlo bababulala.
48 Impela niyafakaza ukuthi niyavumelana nezenzo zaboyihlo, ngokuba bona bababulala, nina nakha amathuna abo.
49 Ngakho futhi ukuhlakanipha kukaNkulunkulu yathi: Ngizabathumelela abaprofethi labaphostoli, labanye kubo bazakubabulala, babazingele;
50 ukuze igazi labaprofethi bonke elachithwa kusukela ekusekelweni komhlaba libizwe kulesisizukulwana;
51 Kusukela egazini lika-Abela kuze kufike egazini likaZakariya owafela phakathi kwe-altare nethempeli. Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Liyakubizwa kulesi sizukulwane.
52 Maye kinina zazimthetho! ngokuba nithathe isihluthulelo sokwazi; aningenanga nina, nabangenayo nabavimbela.
53 Esakhuluma lokho kubo, ababhali nabaFarisi baqala ukumncenga kakhulu nokumcunula ukuba akhulume izinto eziningi.
54 Bemqamekela, befuna ukubamba utho oluphuma emlonyeni wakhe, ukuze bambeke icala.
