“Ningahluleli ukuba ningahlulelwa.
2 Ngokuba ngokwahlulela enahlulela ngakho nani niyakwahlulelwa ngakho, nangaleso silinganiso enilinganisa ngaso nani niyakulinganiselwa ngaso.
3 “Ubhekelani ucezwana olusesweni lomfowenu, kepha ugongolo olusesweni lakho awuluboni, na?
4 Ungasho kanjani kumfowenu ukuthi: ‘Ake ngikhiphe ucezwana olusesweni lakho;’ bheka, ugongolo lusesweni lakho.
5 Mzenzisi, khipha kuqala ugongolo esweni lakho, khona-ke uzakubonisisa ukukhipha ucezwana esweni lomfowenu.
6 “Ninganiki izinja okungcwele, ningaphonsi amaparele enu phambi kwezingulube, funa ziwanyathele ngezinyawo zazo, ziphenduke, ziniklebhule.
7 “Celani, khona nizakuphiwa; funani, khona nizakufumana; ngqongqothani, khona nizakuvulelwa.
8 Ngokuba yilowo nalowo ocelayo uyamukeliswa, nofunayo uyafumana, nongqongqothayo uzakuvulelwa.
9 “Noma ngumuphi umuntu kini ongathi, uma indodana yakhe icela isinkwa, ayinike itshe,
10 noma icela inhlanzi, ayinike inyoka na?
11 Ngakho-ke uma nina enibabi nazi ukubapha abantwana benu izipho ezinhle, kakhulu uYihlo osezulwini uzakubapha okuhle abacela kuye.
12 Ngakho-ke konke nokungakanani enifuna ukuba abantu bakwenze kini, kwenzeni nani kanjalo kubo; ngokuba lokhu kungumthetho nabaprofethi.
13 “Ngenani ngesango elincane; ngokuba isango libanzi nendlela inkulu eyisa ekubhujisweni; baningi abangena khona.
14 Kepha isango lincane nendlela iyingcingo eyisa ekuphileni; bayingcosana abayifumanayo.
15 “Xwayani abaprofethi bamanga abeza kini bembathise okwezimvu, kepha ngaphakathi bayizimpisi eziphangayo.
16 Niyakubazi ngezithelo zabo. Kungakhiwa yini izithelo zomvini emeveni noma amakhiwane ekhakhasini na?
17 Kanjalo yilowo nalowo muthi omuhle uthela izithelo ezinhle, kepha umuthi omubi uthela izithelo ezimbi.
18 Umuthi omuhle ungethele izithelo ezimbi, nomuthi omubi ungethele izithelo ezinhle.
19 Yilowo nalowo muthi ongatheli izithelo ezinhle uyanqunywa, uphonswe emlilweni.
20 Njalo-ke niyakubazi ngezithelo zabo.
21 “Asibo bonke abashoyo kimi ukuthi: ‘Nkosi, Nkosi,’ abayakungena embusweni wezulu, kuphela owenza intando kaBaba osezulwini.
22 Abaningi bayakuthi kimi ngalolo suku: ‘Nkosi, Nkosi, asiprofethanga yini ngegama lakho, sakhipha amademoni ngegama lakho, senza imisebenzi eminingi yamandla ngegama lakho, na?’
23 Khona ngiyakufakaza kubo ukuthi: ‘Angizange nginazi; sukani kimi nina benzi bokubi.’
24 “Ngalokho yilowo nalowo owezwa lawa mazwi ami, awenze, uyakufaniswa nendoda ehlakaniphileyo eyakha indlu yayo phezu kwedwala.
25 Layithela imvula, kwafika izikhukhula, kwavunguza imimoya, yayishaya leyo ndlu; kepha kayiwanga, ngokuba yayisekelwe yidwala.
26 Kodwa yilowo owezwa lawa mazwi ami, angawenzi, uyakufaniswa nendoda eyisiwula eyakha indlu yayo phezu kwesihlabathi.
27 Layithela imvula, kwafika izikhukhula, kwavunguza imimoya, yayishaya leyo ndlu, yawa, kwaba kukhulu ukuwa kwayo!”
28 Kwathi uJesu eseqedile lawo mazwi, izixuku zamangala ngokufundisa kwakhe;
29 ngokuba wayebafundisa njengonamandla, kungenjengababhali babo.
