Uvukile
Abesifazane baletha amakha, bathola itshe ligingqiwe nensizwa ithi uvukile, bese bebaleka besaba, bengatsheli muntu. UJesu ubonakala kuMariya Magdalena nakwabanye abafundi abenqaba ukubakholwa, bese ethumela abayishumi nanye endalweni yonke.
16 1Kwathi seliphelile iSabatha, uMariya Magdalena, uMariya unina kaJakobe, noSalome bathenga amakha ukuze bayomgcoba. 2Ekuseni kakhulu ngosuku lokuqala lwesonto, emva nje kokuphuma kwelanga, baya ethuneni. 3Babuzana bodwa bathi: “Ngubani oyosigingqela itshe lisuke emnyango wethuna?” 4Kodwa bathi bebheka phezulu, babona itshe—elalilikhulu kakhulu—seligingqiwe lasuswa.
5Bangena ethuneni babona insizwa yembethe ingubo emhlophe, ihlezi ngakwesokunene. Bethuka. 6Yathi: “Ningethuki. Nifuna uJesu waseNazaretha owabethelwa esiphambanweni. Uvukile—akekho lapha. Bhekani, indawo lapho ababemlalise khona. 7Kodwa hambani, nitshele abafundi bakhe noPhethro, nithi: ‘Uyanandulela eGalile. Niyombona khona, njengoba anitshela.’”
8Bethuthumela bemangele, abesifazane babaleka ethuneni, bangatsheli muntu—ngoba babesaba.
9Esevukile ekuseni ngosuku lokuqala lwesonto, uJesu wabonakala kuqala kuMariya Magdalena, ayekhiphe kuye amademoni ayisikhombisa. a a v9 Imibhalo yakudala kunayo yonke iphetha uMarku evesini lesi-8. Amavesi 9-20 atholakala ezincwadini eziningi zakamuva futhi anyatheliswe lapha, njengakumaBhayibheli amaningi anamuhla. 10Wahamba watshela labo ababekade benaye, ababezilile bekhala. 11Bathi besizwa ukuthi uJesu uyaphila nokuthi umbonile, abakukholwanga.
12Emva kwalokho uJesu wabonakala, ngesinye isimo, kwababili babo ababehamba beya emaphandleni. 13Babuyela bakubika kwabanye, kodwa nabo ababakholwanga.
14Kamuva uJesu wabonakala kwabayishumi nanye besadla, wabasola ngokuntula kwabo ukholo nangobulukhuni bezinhliziyo zabo, ngokuba babengabakholwanga labo abambona esevukile.
15Wathi kubo: “Hambani niye ezweni lonke, nimemezele izindaba ezinhle kuyo yonke indalo. 16Okholwayo abhapathizwe uyosindiswa, kodwa ongakholwayo uyolahlwa. 17Lezi zibonakaliso ziyobalandela abakholwayo: egameni lami bayokhipha amademoni, bakhulume ngezilimi ezintsha. 18Bayophatha izinyoka ngezandla zabo; uma bephuza ushevu obulalayo, ngeke ubalimaze; bayobeka izandla phezu kwabagulayo, basinde.”
19Emva kokukhuluma nabo, iNkosi uJesu yakhushulelwa ezulwini yahlala ngakwesokunene sikaBaba wethu. b b v19 Lapho iNdodana isiqedile umsebenzi wayo, yabuyela eceleni kukaYise — indawo yodumo eyihlanganyela noYise. 20Baphuma bashumayela yonke indawo, iNkosi isebenza kanye nabo, iqinisa izwi layo ngezibonakaliso ezaziphelezela.
