Umkhuleko kaJesu ezikhulekela yena, nabafundi bakhe, nabo bonke abakholwayo
1UJesu wakhuluma lokho; wayesephakamisela amehlo akhe ezulwini, wathi: “Baba, isikhathi sifikile; khazimulisa iNdodana yakho, ukuze iNdodana ikukhazimulise wena, 2njengalokho uyiphile amandla phezu kwenyama yonke ukuba bonke oyiphe bona ibaphe ukuphila okuphakade. 3Ukuphila okuphakade yilokhu ukuba bazi wena Nkulunkulu wedwa oqinisileyo, nomthumileyo, uJesu Kristu. 4Ngikukhazimulisile emhlabeni, ngifeze umsebenzi ongiphe wona ukuba ngiwenze. 5Manje-ke ngikhazimulise wena Baba, kuwe uqobo, ngenkazimulo ebenginayo ngikuwe, izwe lingakabikho.
6“Ngibonakalisile igama lakho kubantu ongiphe bona kwabasezweni; babengabakho, wangipha bona; baligcinile izwi lakho. 7Sebazi ukuthi konke ongiphe khona kuvela kuwe. 8Ngokuba amazwi ongiphe wona ngibaphile wona, bawamukela, bazi isibili ukuthi ngavela kuwe, bakholwa ukuthi wangithuma wena. 9Ngiyabakhulekela bona; angikhulekeli izwe kepha labo ongiphe bona, ngokuba bengabakho. 10Konke okwami kungokwakho, nokwakho kungokwami; ngikhazimulisiwe kubona. 11Angisekho ezweni mina, basezweni bona, mina ngiza kuwe. Baba ongcwele, bagcine egameni lakho labo ongiphe bona, ukuze babe munye njengathi. 12Lapho ngise nabo ezweni, ngabagcina egameni lakho labo ongiphe bona, ngabalonda; akakho kubo owalahleka, kuphela indodana yokulahlwa, ukuba kugcwaliseke umbhalo.
13“Sengiza kuwe kalokhu; ngikhuluma lokhu ezweni ukuba babe nokuthokoza kwami, kugcwale kubo. 14Mina ngibanikile izwi lakho; izwe labazonda, ngokuba bengesibo abezwe, njengalokhu nami angisiye owezwe. 15Angiceli ukuba ubasuse ezweni; kepha ngicela ukuba ubalonde kokubi. 16Abasibo abezwe, njengalokhu nami angisiye owezwe. 17Bangcwelise ngeqiniso, izwi lakho liyiqiniso. 18Njengalokho wangithumela ezweni, nami ngibathumela ezweni. 19Ngiyazingcwelisa ngenxa yabo ukuba bangcweliswe nabo ngeqiniso.
20“Angiceleli laba bodwa kepha nalabo abakholwa yimi ngezwi labo 21ukuba bonke babe munye, njengalokhu wena Baba ukimi, nami ngikuwe, ukuba nabo babe kithina, ukuze izwe likholwe ukuthi wena ungithumile. 22Nenkazimulo ongiphe yona ngiyiphile bona, ukuze babe munye, njengalokhu thina simunye, 23mina kubona, nawe kimina, ukuba bapheleliswe ebunyeni, ukuze izwe lazi ukuba wena ungithumile, wabathanda, njengalokho ungithandile.
24“Baba, ngithanda ukuba labo ongiphe bona nabo babe khona nami lapha ngikhona, ukuze babone inkazimulo yami ongiphe yona; ngokuba wangithanda, kungakasekelwa izwe.
25“Baba olungileyo, izwe kalikwazanga, kepha mina ngikwazile, nalaba bazile ukuthi ungithumile. 26Ngibazisile igama lakho, ngizakubazisa lona ukuba uthando ongithande ngalo lube kubo, nami ngibe kubo.”
