Wathi uJesu engena, wadabula eJeriko.
Njalo khangela, kwakukhona indoda eyayithiwa nguZakewu ngebizo; owayeyinduna yabathelisi, njalo wayenothile;
wadinga ukubona uJesu ukuthi ungubani, kodwa kazange enelise ngenxa yexuku, ngoba wayelesithombo esifitshane.
Wasegijimela phambili wakhwela emkhiweni wesikhamore ukuze ambone; ngoba wayezadlula ngaleyondlela.

Kwathi uJesu efika kuleyondawo, wakhangela phezulu wambona, wathi kuye: Zakewu, phangisa wehle; ngoba lamuhla ngimele ukuhlala endlini yakho.
Wasephangisa wehla, wamemukela ethokoza.
Futhi bonke bekubona basola, besithi: Ungene wethekelela indoda eyisoni.

Kodwa uZakewu wema wathi eNkosini: Khangela, ingxenye yempahla yami, Nkosi, ngiyipha abayanga; kuthi uba ngimthathele umuntu ulutho ngobuqili, ngilubuyisela luphindwe kane.
UJesu wasesithi kuye: Lamuhla usindiso lufikile kulindlu, ngoba laye uyindodana kaAbrahama.
Ngoba iNdodana yomuntu ize ukudinga lokusindisa okulahlekileyo.

Kwathi besizwa lezizinto, wengezelela watsho umfanekiso, ngoba wayeseduze leJerusalema, langoba babecabanga ukuthi umbuso kaNkulunkulu uzahle ubonakaliswe.
Wasesithi-ke: Umuntu othile oyisikhulu waya elizweni elikhatshana, ukuzemukelela umbuso, aphinde abuye.
Wasebiza inceku zakhe ezilitshumi, wazinika impondo ezilitshumi, wathi kuzo: Sebenzani ngemali ngize ngibuye.

Kodwa izakhamizi zakhe zamzonda, zathuma amanxusa emva kwakhe, zisithi: Kasithandi ukuthi lo asibuse.

Kwasekusithi esebuyile esewemukele umbuso, wathi azibizelwe kuye lezozinceku, ayezinike imali, ukuze azi ukuthi yileyo laleyo izuzeni ngokuthengiselana.
Kweza-ke eyokuqala, yathi: Nkosi, impondo yakho izuze impondo ezilitshumi.

Wasesithi kuyo: Kuhle, nceku elungileyo; lokhu uthembekile kokuncinyanyana, woba lamandla phezu kwemizi elitshumi.
Kwasekusiza eyesibili, yathi: Nkosi, impondo yakho yenze impondo ezinhlanu.
Wasesithi lakuyo: Lawe woba phezu kwemizi emihlanu.
Kwasekusiza enye, isithi: Nkosi, khangela impondo yakho, engayibeka elenjini;
ngoba bengikwesaba, ngoba ungumuntu olukhuni; uthatha lokho ongakubekanga, futhi uvune lokho ongakuhlanyelanga.

Wasesithi kuyo: Ngizakugweba ngokuvela emlonyeni wakho, nceku embi. Ubusazi ukuthi mina ngingumuntu olukhuni, othatha lokho engingakubekanga, futhi avune lokho engingakuhlanyelanga;
ngakho kungani ungafakanga imali yami ebhanga, kuthi-ke mina ekufikeni kwami ngiyithathe kanye lenzuzo?
Wasesithi kulabo ababemi khona: Memukeni impondo, liyinike lowo olempondo ezilitshumi.
Kodwa bathi kuye: Nkosi, lowo ulempondo ezilitshumi.

Ngoba ngithi kini: Wonke olakho uzaphiwa; kodwa lowo ongelakho, uzakwemukwa lalokho alakho.
Kodwa lezozitha zami, ebezingathandi ukuthi ngizibuse, ziletheni lapha, lizibulale phambi kwami.
Esetshilo lezizinto, wahamba phambili, esenyukela eJerusalema.

esithi: Hambani liye emzaneni okhangelene lani; lizakuthi lingena kuwo lifice ithole likababhemi libotshiwe, okungazanga kuhlale kulo muntu; lilikhulule lililethe.
Uba umuntu elibuza esithi: Lilikhululelani? Lizakutsho njalo kuye ukuthi: INkosi iyaliswela.
Ababethunyiwe bahamba-ke bafica kunjengoba ebatshelile.
Kuthe besalikhulula ithole, abaninilo bathi kubo: Lilikhululelani ithole?
Bona basebesithi: INkosi iyaliswela.
Basebeliletha kuJesu; baphosela izembatho zabo phezu kwethole likababhemi, bamkhweza uJesu kulo.
Kwathi ehamba, bendlala izembatho zabo phansi endleleni.

lisithi: Ibusisiwe inkosi ezayo ebizweni leNkosi; ukuthula ezulwini, lenkazimulo kweliphezulu.
Labanye babaFarisi ababesexukwini bathi kuye: Mfundisi, khuza abafundi bakho.
Wasephendula wathi kubo: Ngithi kini, uba bethula laba, amatshe azamemeza.
Kwathi esondela, ewubona umuzi, wawukhalela,
esithi: Kungathi ngabe wazile lawe, ngitsho ngalolusuku lwakho, izinto zokuthula kwakho; kodwa-ke khathesi zifihlakele emehlweni akho.
Ngoba insuku zizakwehlela phezu kwakho, lapho izitha zakho zizakwakhela umthangala zikugombolozele, zikuzingelezele, zikuvimbele inhlangothi zonke,

zikudilizele phansi wena labantwana bakho abaphakathi kwakho, zingatshiyi ilitshe phezu kwelitshe phakathi kwakho; ngoba ungasazanga isikhathi sokuhanjelwa kwakho.
Wasengena ethempelini, waqala ukuxotsha abathengisayo kulo, labathengayo,
esithi kubo: Kulotshiwe ukuthi: Indlu yami yindlu yomkhuleko; kodwa lina liyenze ubhalu lwabaphangi.

Njalo wayefundisa ethempelini insuku zonke; kodwa abapristi abakhulu lababhali lenduna zabantu badinga ukumbulala;
kodwa kabatholanga abangakwenza, ngoba abantu bonke banamathela kuye bemlalela.
