Uvuko lukaYesu
1Ke kaloku, ngolokuqala usuku lweveki, kuza engcwabeni uMariya waseMagadala kusasa, kusentsundu, alibone ilitye lisusiwe engcwabeni. 2Agidime ngoko, eze kuSimon Petros nakomnye umfundi, lowo ubethandwa nguYesu, athi kubo, Bayisusile iNkosi engcwabeni; asazi nalapho bayibeke khona.
3Waphuma ngoko uPetros nomnye umfundi lowo, besiya engcwabeni. 4Ke kaloku baye begidima bona bobabini kunye; waza omnye umfundi lowo wamshiya ngamendu uPetros, wafika kuqala engcwabeni. 5Uthi akuqondela, azibone izisongelo zelinen abesongelwe kuzo zizodwa; akangenanga ke noko.
6Afike ngoko uSimon Petros emlandela, angene engcwabeni, azibone izisongelo zelinen abesongelwe kuzo zizodwa; 7neqhiya ebisentlokweni yakhe, ingadibene neelinen abesongelwe kuzo, isongiwe yodwa ndaweni ithile. 8Wandula ngoko wangena nomnye umfundi, lowo ubefike kuqala engcwabeni, wabona, wakholwa; 9kuba babengekasazi isibhalo esithi, úmelwe kukuthi avuke kwabafileyo. 10Babuya ngoko abafundi bagoduka.
UYesu uzibonakalalisa kuMariya
11Ke kaloku uMariya ebemi ngaphandle ngasengcwabeni, elila; xa ke ebelila, waqondela engcwabeni. 12Wabona izithunywa zezulu ezibini, zambethe ezimhlophe, zihleli; esinye ngasentloko, esinye ngasezinyaweni, apho wawulele khona umzimba kaYesu. 13Zithi zona kuye, Mfazi, ulilelani na? Athi kuzo, Bayisusile iNkosi yam; andazi apho bayibeke khona.
14Akutsho wajika, wambona uYesu emi; wayengazi ke ukuba nguYesu. 15Athi uYesu kuye, Mfazi, ulilelani na? ufuna bani na? Yena, esiba ngumgcini-myezo, uthi kuye, Nkosi, ukuba umsusile apha, ndixelele apho umbeke khona; mna ndiye kumthabatha. 16Athi uYesu kuye, Mariya! Wajika yena wathi kuye, Rabhoni! (oku kukuthi, Mfundisi).
17Uthi uYesu kuye, Ungàndichukumisi; kuba andikanyuki ndiye kuBawo; ke yiya kubazalwana bam, uthi kubo, Ndiyenyuka, ndiya kuBawo, kuYihlo; kuThixo wam, kuThixo wenu. 18Afike uMariya waseMagadala, ababikele abafundi ukuba uyibonile iNkosi; yathetha ezi zinto kuye.

19Kwakuhlwa ngoko, ngolokuqala usuku lweveki, zakubon' ukuba iingcango zivaliwe, apho babehlanganisene khona abafundi, ngenxa yokoyika amaYuda, wafika uYesu wema phakathi, wathi kubo, Uxolo malube nani. Akutsho, wababonisa izandla necala lakhe. 20Bavuya ngoko abafundi bakuyibona iNkosi. 21Waphinda ngoko uYesu wathi kubo, Uxolo malube nani; njengokuba uBawo endithumile mna, nam ndiyanithuma nina. 22Akutsho wabaphefumlela, wathi kubo, Yamkelani uMoya oyiNgcwele; 23abazono nithe nazixolela, bazixolelwe; nabazono nithe nazibamba, zibambekile.
24Ke kaloku uTomas, omnye kwabalishumi elinababini, okuthiwa nguDidimo,• wayengenabo oko wafikayo uYesu. 25Babesithi ngoko kuye abanye abafundi, Siyibonile iNkosi. Wathi ke yena kubo, Ukuba andithanga ndilibone inxeba lezikhonkwane ezandleni zayo, ndiwufake umnwe wam enxebeni lezikhonkwane, ndisifake isandla sam ecaleni layo, andisayi kukholwa.
26Baye emveni kweentsuku ezisibhozo bekwangaphakathi abafundi bakhe; wayenabo noTomas. Afike uYesu, zakubon' ukuba zivaliwe iingcango, eme phakathi, athi, Uxolo malube nani. 27Andule athi kuTomas, Ethe apha umnwe wakho, uzibone izandla zam; ethe isandla sakho, usifake ecaleni lam; musa ukuba ngongakholwayo, yiba ngokholwayo. 28Uphendule uTomas, wathi kuye, Nkosi yam, Thixo wam! 29Athi uYesu kuye, Ngokuba undibonile, Tomas, ukholiwe. Banoyolo abo bangabonanga, bakholwa noko.
30Mininzi ke okunene neminye imiqondiso awayenzayo uYesu emehlweni abafundi bakhe, engabhalwanga kuyo le ncwadi; 31kodwa le ibhalelwe ukuze nikholwe ukuba uYesu unguye uKristu,• uNyana kaThixo, nokuze nithi, nikholwa, nibe nabo ubomi egameni lakhe.
