Mark 16
1 When the Sabbath was over, Mary of Magdala, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought some spices, so that they might go and anoint the body of Jesus.
Isabatha selidlulile, uMariya Magadalena loMariya unina kaJakobe loSalome bathenga amakha, ukuze bahambe bayemgcoba.
2 Very early on the first day of the week they went to the tomb, after sunrise.
Kwathi ekuseni kakhulu ngosuku lokuqala lweviki beza engcwabeni, ekuphumeni kwelanga.
3 They were saying to one another, ‘Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance of the tomb?’
Basebekhulumisana besithi: Ngubani ozasigiqela ilitshe lisuke emnyango wengcwaba?
4 But, on looking up, they saw that the stone had already been rolled back; it was a very large one.
Futhi bathi ukukhangela babona ilitshe seligiqwe lasuswa; ngoba lalilikhulu kakhulu.
5 Going into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on their right, in a white robe, and they were dismayed; but he said to them,
Kuthe bengena engcwabeni, babona ijaha lihlezi ngakwesokunene, lembethe isembatho eside esimhlophe; besaba.
6 ‘Do not be dismayed; you are looking for Jesus, the Nazarene, who has been crucified; he has risen, he is not here! Look! Here is the place where they laid him.
Kodwa lathi kubo: Lingesabi; lidinga uJesu umNazaretha obebethelwe; uvukile, kakho lapha; khangelani, indawo lapho abebembeke khona.
7 But go, and say to his disciples and to Peter “He is going before you into Galilee; there you will see him, as he told you.”’
Kodwa hambani, litshele abafundi bakhe loPetro ukuthi uzalandulela ukuya eGalili; lizambona khona, njengalokho ayekutshilo kini.
8 They went out, and fled from the tomb, for they were trembling and bewildered; and they did not say a word to anyone, for they were frightened.
Basebephuma ngokuphangisa babaleka engcwabeni; futhi ukuqhuqha lokwethuka kwababamba; futhi kabakhulumanga lutho emuntwini, ngoba babesesaba.
9 (note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) After his rising again, early on the first day of the week, Jesus appeared first of all to Mary of Magdala, from whom he had driven out seven demons.
(note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) Kwathi uJesu esevukile ekuseni kakhulu ngolokuqala lweviki, wabonakala kuqala kuMariya Magadalena, ayekhuphe kuye amadimoni ayisikhombisa.
10 She went and told the news to those who had been with him and who were now in sorrow and tears;
Yena wasuka wababikela labo ababelaye, belila bekhala.
11 yet even they, when they heard that he was alive and had been seen by her, did not believe it.
Labo sebezwile ukuthi uyaphila lokuthi ubonwe nguye, kabakholwanga.
12 Afterwards, altered in appearance, he made himself known to two of them, as they were walking, on their way into the country.
Njalo emva kwalezizinto wabonakala ngesinye isimo kwababili babo behamba, besiya emaphandleni.
13 They also went and told the rest, but they did not believe even them.
Labo bahamba babikela abanye; lalabo kababakholwanga.
14 Later on, he made himself known to the Eleven themselves as they were at a meal, and reproached them with their want of faith and their stubbornness, because they did not believe those who had seen him after he had risen from the dead.
Emva kwalokhu wabonakala kwabalitshumi lanye behlezi ekudleni, wasola ukungakholwa kwabo lobulukhuni benhliziyo, ngoba bengakholwanga labo abambonayo esevukile.
15 Then he said to them, ‘Go into all the world, and proclaim the good news to all creation.
Wasesithi kubo: Hambani liye emhlabeni wonke, litshumayele ivangeli kuso sonke isidalwa.
16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who refuses to believe will be condemned.
Lowo okholwayo abhabhathizwe uzasindiswa; kodwa ongakholwayo uzalahlwa.
17 Moreover these signs will attend those who believe. In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new languages;
Lalezizibonakaliso zizabalandela abakholwayo: Ebizweni lami bazakhupha amadimoni; bakhulume ngendimi ezintsha;
18 they will take up snakes in their hands; and, if they drink any poison, it will not hurt them; they will place their hands on sick people and they will recover.’
bazadobha izinyoka; uba benatha loba yikuphi okubulalayo, kakusoze kubalimaze; bazabeka izandla phezu kwabagulayo, futhi bazaphila.
19 So the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven, and sat at the right hand of God.
Ngakho iNkosi, emva kokuthi isikhulumile labo, yakhutshulelwa ezulwini, yahlala ngakwesokunene sikaNkulunkulu.
20 But they set out, and made the proclamation everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the message by the signs which attended it. But all that had been revealed to them they reported briefly to Peter and his companions. Afterwards Jesus himself sent them out, from east to west, the sacred and imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation.
Bona basebephuma batshumayela endaweni zonke, iNkosi isebenza labo, iqinisa ilizwi ngezibonakaliso ezazilandela. Ameni.
