Kusuka encwadini yomprofethi u-Isaìa
Ingabe 35,1-10
Ugwadule nomhlaba owomileyo makujabule,
ake u-steppe ajabule aqhakaze.
Njengembali ye-narcissus;
yebo, uhlabelela ngenjabulo nangokuthokoza.
Inikwe inkazimulo yeLebanoni,
ubukhazikhazi beKarmeli neSharoni.
Bayobona inkazimulo kaJehova,
ubukhulu bukaNkulunkulu wethu.
Qinisa izandla zakho ezibuthakathaka,
qinisa amadolo akho axegayo.
Tshela abalahlekile enhliziyweni:
«Isibindi, ungesabi!
Nangu uNkulunkulu wakho,
impindiselo iyeza,
umvuzo waphezulu.
Uza ukuzokusindisa ».
Lapho-ke amehlo ezimpumputhe azovuleka
nezindlebe zezithulu zivuleke.
Izinyonga zizogxuma njengendluzelekazi,
Ulimi lwesimungulu luyokhamuluka ngenjabulo,
ngoba amanzi ageleza ehlane,
imifudlana izohamba emathafeni.
Umhlaba ohangukile uyoba yixhaphozi,
imithombo yamanzi eyomile yomhlabathi.
Izindawo lapho kulele khona izimpungushe
bayoba ngumhlanga nemihlanga.
Kuzoba khona indlela nomgwaqo
futhi bazoyibiza ngokuthi umgwaqo ongcwele;
akukho okungcolileyo okuyakuhamba ngakho.
Kuzoba yindlela abantu bakhe abangayithatha
futhi abangenalwazi ngeke baduke.
Ngeke kusaba khona ibhubesi,
asikho isilo esinolaka esizokuhamba noma sikumise.
Abahlengiwe bazohamba lapho.
Abahlengiweyo beNkosi bazobuyela kuyo
futhi bayoza eSiyoni ngokujabula;
injabulo engapheli izokhanya emakhanda abo;
injabulo nentokozo kuzobalandela
nosizi nezinyembezi ziyobaleka.
IVANGELI LOSUKU
Kusuka eVangelini ngokusho kukaLuka
Lk 5,17-26
Ngelinye ilanga uJesu wayefundisa. Kwakukhona nabaFarisi nabafundisi bomthetho ababehlezi bevela emizini yonke yaseGalile naseJudiya, naseJerusalema. Amandla eNkosi amphilisa.
Futhi bheka, amadoda athile, ethwele indoda eyayikhubazekile embhedeni, azama ukumngenisa ambeka phambi kwakhe. Njengoba bengatholi ukuthi bangamngenisa kanjani ngenxa yesixuku, bakhuphukela ophahleni futhi, ngamathayili, bamehlisa ngombhede phambi kukaJesu phakathi kwegumbi.
Ebona ukukholwa kwabo, wathi: "Ndoda, uthethelelwe izono zakho." Ababhali nabaFarisi baqala ukuphikisana, bethi: "Ngubani lo okhuluma ukuhlambalaza?" Ubani ongaxolela izono, uma kungeyena uNkulunkulu yedwa? ».
Kodwa uJesu, azi imicabango yabo, waphendula wathi: «Kungani nicabanga kanjalo enhliziyweni yenu? Yini elula: ukuthi "Izono zakho zixolelwe", noma ukuthi "Sukuma uhambe"? Manje, ukuze nazi ukuthi iNdodana yomuntu inamandla emhlabeni okuxolela izono, ngithi kuwe - wathi kofe uhlangothi -: sukuma uthathe uhlaka lwakho ubuyele ekhaya lakho ». Masinyane wasukuma phambi kwabo, wathatha uhlaka abelele kulo, waya endlini yakhe, ekhazimulisa uNkulunkulu.
Wonke umuntu wamangala futhi wadumisa uNkulunkulu; begcwele ukwesaba bathi: "Namuhla sibonile izinto ezimangazayo."
AMAZWI KA BABA OYINGCWELE
Kuyinto elula uJesu asifundisa yona uma kuya kokusemqoka. Okubalulekile yimpilo, konke: komzimba nomphefumulo. Sikugcina kahle lokho komzimba, kodwa futhi nokomphefumulo. Futhi ake siye kulowo Dokotela ongaselapha, ongathethelela izono. UJesu weza ngalokhu, wanikela ngokuphila kwakhe ngenxa yalokhu. (IHomily yaseSanta Marta, Januwari 17, 2020)
