Luka 13
1 Katema kakoko ŵaiche ŵandu ŵampepe ni ŵaasalile Che Yesu ngani sya ŵandu ŵa ku Galilaya ŵaŵaulegwe ni che Pilato paŵaliji nkusikita inyama yao ya mbopesi ni miasi jao jawanganyiche ni mbopesi jao.
Njalo ngalesosikhathi kwaba khona abathile abamtshela ngamaGalili, igazi lawo uPilatu alixubanisa lemihlatshelo yawo.
2 Che Yesu ŵajanjile kuti, “Pakuŵa Ŵagalilaya ŵala ŵaulajikwe kwanti yele, nkuganisya ŵaliji ŵakuleŵa kwapunda Ŵagalilaya ŵane wose?
UJesu wasephendula wathi kubo: Licabanga ukuthi amaGalili la ayeyizoni yini kulawo wonke amaGalili, ngoba ahlupheka izinto ezinje?
3 Isyene ngunsalila kuti ngaŵa yele, nambo iŵaga nganneka sambi syenu ŵanyamwe nombe chinjonasiche.
Hatshi bo, ngithi kini: Kodwa uba lingaphenduki, lizabhubha ngokunjalo lonke.
4 Iyoyo peyo ana nkuganichisya kuti ŵandu kumi na nane ŵala, ŵaŵagwililwe ni nyuumba jeleu ku Siloamu kula ni kuwa ŵaliji ŵakuleŵa kupunda ŵane wose ŵakutama ku Yelusalemu?
Lalabo abalitshumi lesificaminwembili, owawela phezu kwabo umphotshongo eSilowama wababulala, licabanga ukuthi bona babebabi yini kulabantu bonke ababehlala eJerusalema?
5 Ngunsalila kuti ngaŵa, nambo ŵanyamwe nombe iŵaga nganneka sambi syenu, ŵanyamwe nombe chinjonasiche.”
Hatshi bo, ngithi kini: Kodwa uba lingaphenduki, lizabhubha ngokunjalo lonke.
6 Nipele, Che Yesu ŵatanjile chitagu chi, “Paliji ni mundu jumpepe juŵaliji ni chitela chachikuŵilanjikwa cha ntini chichapandikwe mu ngunda wa Misabibu. Mundu jo ŵajawile kukusosa isogosi yakwe nambo nganachisimana chindu.
Wasekhuluma lumfanekiso wathi: Umuntu othile wayelomkhiwa owawuhlanyelwe esivinini sakhe; wafika edinga isithelo kuwo, kodwa kasitholanga.
7 Nipele, mundu jo ŵansalile jwakuugosa ngunda wo kuti, ‘Mpilikane! Une iicheje yaka itatu yi kukusosa isogosi ya chitela cha ntini chi, nambo nachisimene changasogola. Nchigwisye! Pakuŵa chikumala chajila pangali chindu?’
Wasesithi kuso isisebenzi sesivini: Khangela, sekuyiminyaka emithathu ngisiza ngidinga isithelo emkhiweni, kodwa ngingasitholi; ugamule; yini ukuthi wone ngitsho umhlabathi?
8 Nambo ŵelewo ŵajanjile kuti, ‘Ambuje, tuchileche kaje namyaka chingachisyunguchisye lisimbo ni kutaga chajila.
Sasesiphendula sathi kuye: Nkosi, ake uwuyekele langalumnyaka, ngize ngigebhe ngiwugombolozele, ngithele umquba;
9 Iŵaga chichisogole isogosi chaka chachikwika chi, yambone, nambo iŵaga ngachisogola chinchigwisye.’”
njalo uba uthela isithelo, kuhle; kodwa uba kungenjalo, emva kwalokho uzawugamula.
10 Pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila limo, Che Yesu ŵaliji nkwiganya mu nyuumba ja kupopelela.
Futhi wayefundisa kwelinye lamasinagoge ngesabatha;
11 Ni sooni paliji ni jwankongwe jwakulwala papopo pepo juŵakamwilwe ni lisoka kwa yaka likumi ni nsano ni itatu. Ngongo wakwe wapindiche ni nganakombolaga kulijongola uchenene ng'oo.
njalo khangela, kwakukhona owesifazana owayelomoya wobuthakathaka iminyaka elitshumi leyisificaminwembili, esegogekile, wayengezelulamise ngokupheleleyo.
12 Che Yesu paŵambweni jwankongwe jo ŵambilasile ni ŵansalile, “Jwankongwe, nlecheleswe, ulwele wenu ulamile!”
Kwathi uJesu embona wambizela kuye, wathi kuye: Mama, ukhululwe ebuthakathakeni bakho.
13 Ŵansajichile makono gao ni papopo ŵajongweche ni kutanda kwakusya Akunnungu.
Wasebeka izandla phezu kwakhe; njalo wahle welulanyiswa, wadumisa uNkulunkulu.
14 Nambo jwankulungwa jwa nyuumba jakupopelela ŵatumbile ligongo Che Yesu ŵannamisye jwankongwe jo pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila, nipele ŵausalile mpingo wa ŵandu ula kuti, “Gapali moŵa nsano ni limo gakwaŵajila ŵandu kupanganya masengo. Kwa gele moŵa njise kukulamwa ilwele yenu nambo ngaŵa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila!”
Kodwa umphathi wesinagoge, ethukuthele ngoba uJesu esilise ngesabatha, waphendula wathi exukwini: Zikhona insuku eziyisithupha okufanele ukusetshenzwa ngazo; ngakho wozani ngazo lisiliswe, kodwa kungabi ngosuku lwesabatha.
15 Pelepo Ambuje ŵajanjile, “Ŵaulamba ŵanyamwe! Ana ŵaani pasikati jenu jwangakujiugulila ng'ombe jakwe pane mbunda jakwe mulichinga ni kujilongosya kukung'wa meesi atamuno lili Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila?
Ngakho iNkosi yamphendula, yathi: Mzenzisi, ngulowo lalowo wenu kayikhululi yini inkabi yakhe kumbe ubabhemi esibayeni ngesabatha, ayikhokhele ayeyinathisa?
16 Sambano, jwankongwe ju, uŵelesi u che Iblahimu, juŵataŵikwe ni Shetani kwa yaka likumi ni nsano ni itatu. Ana ngaikusachilwa kunnamya jwankongwe ju namuno lili Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila?”
Lalo, oyindodakazi kaAbrahama, uSathane obembophile, khangela, iminyaka elitshumi leyisificaminwembili, kakufanele yini ukuthi akhululwe kulesisibopho ngosuku lwesabatha?
17 Paŵamasile kuŵecheta gelego, ŵamakani ŵao wose yatesile soni nambo ŵandu ŵane wose ŵasengwile kwaligongo lya indu yose yakusimosya iŵaipangenye.
Kwathi esitsho lezizinto, bayangeka bonke ababephikisana laye; lexuku lonke lathokoza ngezinto zonke ezilodumo ezenziwe nguye.
18 Nipele Che Yesu ŵausisye kuti, “Ana Umwenye wa Akunnungu ukulandana ni chichi? Chinaulandanye ni chichi?
Wasesithi: Umbuso kaNkulunkulu unjengani? Futhi ngizawufananisa lani?
19 Ukulandana ni mbeju jamwana ja chitela chachikuŵilanjikwa haladali jiŵajigele mundu jumo ni kujipanda mungunda mwakwe. Jamesile ni chaliji chitela chachikulungwa ni ijuni yataŵile isusi mu nyambi syakwe.”
Unjengohlamvu lwemasitedi, umuntu aluthatha waluphosa esivandeni sakhe; lwaselumila, lwaba yisihlahla esikhulu, lenyoni zezulu zakhele engatsheni zaso.
20 Che Yesu ŵausisye sooni, “Ana Umwenye wa Akunnungu chinaulandanye ni chichi?
Wasebuya wathi: Ngizawufananisa lani umbuso kaNkulunkulu?
21 Ukulandana ni chilungo chiŵachijigele jwankongwe jumo ni kuwanganya pamo ni utandi wejinji, nipele utandi wose waumwiche.”
Unjengemvubelo, ayithathayo owesifazana wayifaka ezilinganisweni ezintathu zempuphu, kwaze kwabila konke.
22 Che Yesu ŵajendelechele ni ulendo wao wa ku Yelusalemu akuno achajiganyaga ŵandu mmisi ni mmisinda.
Wasehamba edabula imizi lemizana efundisa, ejonge ukuya eJerusalema.
23 Mundu jumo ŵambusisye Che Yesu kuti, “Ana Ambuje, nganatupa ŵandu ŵachakulupuswe?” Che Yesu ŵajanjile kuti,
Omunye wasesithi kuye: Nkosi, balutshwana yini abasindiswayo? Wasesithi kubo:
24 “Nlimbile kwinjila kwa kupitila nnango wakunyilila pakuŵa ngunsalila kuti, ŵajinji chalinje kwinjila mwelemo, nambo chalepele.
Zamani kakhulu ukungena ngesango elincinyane; ngoba abanengi, ngithi kini, bazadinga ukungena, kodwa bazakwehluleka.
25 Chikaiche katema ka nsyene nyuumba pachajimuche ni kuugala nnango. Ŵanyamwe chinjime pasa ni kutanda kupoposya nchitiji, ‘Ambuje, ntuugulile nnango.’ Nambo ŵelewo chachijanga kuti, ‘Ngangummanyilila namose ngangukumanyilila kuntyochele.’
Emva kokuthi umninindlu esesukume wavala umnyango, beseliqala ukuma ngaphandle liqoqode emnyango, lisithi: Nkosi, Nkosi, sivulele; yena-ke aphendule athi kini: Kangilazi, lapho elivela khona;
26 Pelepo chintande kwasalila, ‘Uwe ni ŵeŵala utwalile ni kung'wa pampepe nomwe, nomwe mwajiganyisye mmisi jetu.’
lapho lizaqala ukuthi: Sadla sanatha phambi kwakho, njalo wawufundisa emigwaqweni yakithi.
27 Nambo ŵelewo chaachiti, ‘Ngangummanyilila namose kuntyochele, ntyoche mmbujo mwangu ŵanyamwe wose ŵankupanganya yaigongomalo.’
Kodwa uzakuthi: Ngithi kini: Kangilazi lapho elivela khona; sukani kimi lina lonke benzi bokubi.
28 Nipele kweleko chikupagwe ni kulila ni kuchilimya meeno, pachinchawona che Iblahimu ni che Isaka ni che Yakobo ni ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu wose ali mu Umwenye wa Akunnungu nambo mwachinsyene nkanikwe kwinjila.
Lapho kuzakuba khona ukukhala lokugedla amazinyo, nxa selibona uAbrahama loIsaka loJakobe labaprofethi bonke embusweni kaNkulunkulu, kodwa lina lilahlelwe ngaphandle.
29 Ŵandu chaiche kutyochela mumbali mose mwa chilambo ni kutama kulya mu Umwenye wa Akunnungu.
Futhi bazakuza bevela empumalanga lentshonalanga, njalo enyakatho leningizimu, bahlale embusweni kaNkulunkulu.
30 Elo, kwana ŵane ŵaali ŵambesi chaaŵe ŵandanda ni ŵane ŵaali ŵandanda chaaŵe ŵambesi.”
Njalo khangelani, bakhona abokucina abazakuba ngabokuqala, njalo bakhona abokuqala abazakuba ngabokucina.
31 Katema kakoko Mafalisayo ŵampepe ŵajaulile Che Yesu ni ŵaasalile kuti, “Ntyoche pelepa njaule kwine, pakuŵa mwenye che Helode akusaka kumbulaga.”
Ngelanga elifananayo kwafika abaFarisi abathile, bathi kuye: Phuma usuke lapha, ngoba uHerodi ufuna ukukubulala.
32 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Njaule nkalisalile lyele licheto kuti, ‘Nnole, lelo ni malaŵi ngugakoposya masoka ni kwalamya ŵakulwala ni ntondo chimalichisye masengo gangu.’
Wasesithi kubo: Hambani lilitshele lelokhanka: Khangela, ngiyakhupha amadimoni ngenza izelapho lamuhla lakusasa, langelesithathu ngipheleliswe.
33 Nambo ikuumajila kwaula ulendo wangu lelo ni malaŵi ni ntondo, pakuŵa ngaikomboleka kuti jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu aulajikwe kwine ikaŵe ku Yelusalemu.
Kodwa kumele ukuthi ngihambe lamuhla lakusasa langomhlomunye; ngoba kakwenzeki ukuthi umprofethi abulawelwe ngaphandle kweJerusalema.
34 “Ugwe Yelusalemu! Yelusalemu! Nkwaulaga ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu ni kwaputa maganga ŵaŵatumikwe kukwenu ŵala. Ana kalingwa nasachile kwakumbikanya ŵanache ŵenu pamo, mpela nguku ijikuti pakwautamila ŵanache ŵakwe nambo mwanya nganinsaka.
Jerusalema, Jerusalema, wena obulala abaprofethi, lobakhanda ngamatshe labo abathunywe kuwe! Bengithanda kangakanani ukubuthela ndawonye abantwana bakho, njengesikhukhukazi sibuthela amatsiyane aso ngaphansi kwempiko, kodwa kalivumanga.
35 Nnole! Mwanya chachinnechela musi wenu. Nipele ngunsalila kuti ngamumona une mpaka kele katema pachinchiti, ‘Akole upile ŵelewo ŵakwika mu liina lya Ambuje.’”
Khangelani, indlu yenu itshiywe kini ilunxiwa; njalo ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Kalisoze langibona kuze kufike ukuthi lithi: Ubusisiwe ozayo ebizweni leNkosi.
