Futhi bababulala, negazi elingenacala lasindiswa ngalolo suku. UJohane 8: 1- 11
8:1 But Jesus continued on to the Mount of Olives. 8:2 And early in the morning, he went again to the temple; and all the people came to him. Nokuhlala phansi, he taught them. 8:3 Now the scribes and Pharisees brought forward a woman caught in adultery, and they stood her in front of them. 8:4 Basebesithi kuye: “Mfundisi, this woman was just now caught in adultery. 8:5 And in the law, Moses commanded us to stone such a one. Ngakho-ke, what do you say?” 8:6 But they were saying this to test him, so that they might be able to accuse him. Then Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the earth. 8:7 Bese, when they persevered in questioning him, he stood upright and said to them, “Let whoever is without sin among you be the first to cast a stone at her.” 8:8 And bending down again, he wrote on the earth. 8:9 But upon hearing this, bahamba, kunye ngakunye, beginning with the eldest. And Jesus alone remained, with the woman standing in front of him. 8:10 Then Jesus, raising himself up, said to her: “Woman, where are those who accused you? Has no one condemned you?” 8:11 Wathi, “No one, Lord.” Then Jesus said: “Neither will I condemn you. Hamba, and now do not choose to sin anymore.”

The Book of Jeremiah 31: 31-34
31:31 Bheka, izinsuku ziyasondela, Isho iNkosi, lapho ngiyokwenza isivumelwano esisha nendlu ka-Israyeli nendlu kaJuda, 31:32 kungabi ngokwesivumelwano engasenza nawoyise, mhla ngibabamba ngesandla, ukuze abahole basuke ezweni laseGibithe, isivumelwano abasichitha, nakuba ngangingumbusi phezu kwabo, Isho iNkosi. 31:33 Kodwa lesi kuzakuba yisivumelwano engizasenza lendlu kaIsrayeli, emva kwalezo zinsuku, Isho iNkosi: ngizanika umthetho wami kongaphakathi kwabo, futhi ngizokubhala enhliziyweni yabo. Futhi ngizoba nguNkulunkulu wabo, bazakuba ngabantu bami. 31:34 Futhi ngeke besafundisa, umuntu umakhelwane wakhe, nomuntu umfowabo, ethi: ‘Yazi iNkosi.’ Ngoba bonke bayongazi, kusukela komncinyane wabo kusiya komkhulu, Isho iNkosi. Ngoba ngizathethelela ububi babo, futhi angisayikusikhumbula isono sabo. The Letter to the Hebrews 5: 7-9
5:7 It is Christ who, in the days of his flesh, with a strong cry and tears, offered prayers and supplications to the One who was able to save him from death, and who was heard because of his reverence. 5:8 Futhi nakuba, ngokuqinisekile, he is the Son of God, he learned obedience by the things that he suffered. 5:9 And having reached his consummation, he was made, for all who are obedient to him, the cause of eternal salvation, IVangeli Elingcwele NgokukaJohane 12: 20: 33
12:20 Now there were certain Gentiles among those who went up so that they might worship on the feast day. 12:21 Ngakho-ke, these approached Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and they petitioned him, ethi: “Sir, we want to see Jesus.” 12:22 Philip went and told Andrew. Olandelayo, Andrew and Philip told Jesus. 12:23 But Jesus answered them by saying: “The hour arrives when the Son of man shall be glorified. 12:24 Amen, amen, ngithi kini, unless the grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, 12:25 it remains alone. But if it dies, it yields much fruit. Whoever loves his life, izolahlekelwa yiyo. And whoever hates his life in this world, preserves it unto eternal life. 12:26 If anyone serves me, let him follow me. And where I am, there too my minister shall be. If anyone has served me, my Father will honor him. 12:27 Now my soul is troubled. And what should I say? Baba, save me from this hour? But it is for this reason that I came to this hour. 12:28 Baba, glorify your name!” And then a voice came from heaven, “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.” 12:29 Ngakho-ke, the crowd, which was standing near and had heard it, said that it was like thunder. Others were saying, “An Angel was speaking with him.” 12:30 Jesus responded and said: “This voice came, not for my sake, but for your sakes. 12:31 Now is the judgment of the world. Now will the prince of this world be cast out. 12:32 And when I have been lifted up from the earth, I will draw all things to myself.” 12:33 (Now he said this, signifying what kind of death he would die.)

Jeremiya 11: 18- 20
11:18 Kodwa wena, O Nkosi, bembule lokhu kimi, futhi ngiye ngaqonda. Khona-ke wabonisa imizamo yabo kimi. 11:19 Futhi nganginjengewundlu elithobekile, othwalwa ukuba yisisulu. Futhi ngangingazi ukuthi babengicebele amacebo, ethi: “Masibeke izinkuni phezu kwesinkwa sakhe, futhi masimsuse ezweni labaphilayo, negama lakhe malingabe lisakhunjulwa.” 11:20 Kodwa wena, Nkosi yamabandla, owahlulela ngokulunga, ohlola umphefumulo nenhliziyo, mangibone impindiselo yakho kubo. Ngoba ngembule udaba lwami kuwe. UJohane 7: 40- 53
7:40 Ngakho-ke, some from that crowd, when they had heard these words of his, bethi, “This one truly is the Prophet.” 7:41 Others were saying, “He is the Christ.” Yet certain ones were saying: “Does the Christ come from Galilee? 7:42 Does Scripture not say that the Christ comes from the offspring of David and from Bethlehem, the town where David was?” 7:43 And so there arose a dissension among the multitude because of him. 7:44 Now certain ones among them wanted to apprehended him, but no one laid hands upon him. 7:45 Ngakho-ke, the attendants went to the high priests and the Pharisees. Basebesithi kubo, “Why have you not brought him?” 7:46 The attendants responded, “Never has a man spoken like this man.” 7:47 And so the Pharisees answered them: “Have you also been seduced? 7:48 Have any of the leaders believed in him, or any of the Pharisees? 7:49 But this crowd, which does not know the law, they are accursed.” 7:50 Nicodemus, the one who came to him by night and who was one of them, wathi kubo, 7:51 “Does our law judge a man, unless it has first heard him and has known what he has done?” 7:52 Basabela bathi kuye: “Are you also a Galilean? Study the Scriptures, and see that a prophet does not arise from Galilee.” 7:53 And each one returned to his own house.
