< Joni 21 >
1 Henka'a Jisasi'a mago'ene Taberiasi mago agi'a Galili tiru ankenare, amate efore huzmerige'za amage' nentaza disaipol naga'amo'za ke'naze. Ama'amokizmire efore hige'za ke'naze.
Ngemva kwesikhathi uJesu waphinda waziveza kubafundi bakhe oLwandle lwaseThibheriyasi. Kwenzakala kanje:
2 Saimon Pita'ma, Tomasi mago agi'a Didimasi'ma, Natanael Kana kumateti ne'ene, Zebeti nemofokegi, tare amage' nenta'a disaipol netrene atru hu'za mani'naze.
USimoni Phethro, loThomasi (othiwa nguDidimasi) loNathaneli waseKhana eseGalile, lamadodana kaZebhediya labanye abafundi ababili babendawonye.
3 Saimon Pita'a zamasmino, nagra nozame kuko atreku nevue hige'za, tagra anazanke huta magoka vugahune, nehu'za votifi mareri'za vu'naze. Ana kenagera magore hu'za nozamea avazu osu'naze.
USimoni Phethro wabatshela wathi, “Ngisayagola inhlanzi” bona bathi, “Sizahamba lawe.” Ngakho baphuma bayangena esikepeni kodwa kababambanga lutho ngalobobusuku.
4 Anante ko'ma atigeno, nanterana Jisasi'a tinkenare oti'neanagi, amage nentaza disaipol naga'mo'za, Jisasi'e hu'za keso'e osu'naze.
Ekuseni kakhulu uJesu wema ekhunjini kodwa abafundi kabananzelelanga ukuthi kwakunguJesu.
5 Anante Jisasi'a zamasmi'ne, Mofavre nagare tamagra nozamea avazu osu'naze, tamageo? Huno zamantahigege'za, zamagra ke nona'a Izo avazu osu'none, hu'za hu'naze.
Wabamemeza wathi, “Bangane, lilokhu lingabambanga nhlanzi yini?” Baphendula bathi, “Hatshi.”
6 Agra zamasamino, Kukontamia eritma votimofo tamaga kazigati omo atretma, mago'a nozamea avazu hugahaze. Hige'za ana kukoma atrete'za, avazu hu'zanku kasgeke hu'naze. Na'ankure rama'a nozamemo ana kukompi frevitege'za avazuhu anaga ana votifi atrezanku hu'naze.
Wathi, “Phoselani umambule wenu ngakwesokunene kwesikepe lizagola khona.” Bathe sebenze njalo behluleka ukudonsa umambule ngenxa yobunengi benhlanzi.
7 Jisasi'ma avesi nentea disaipol ne'mo Pitanku anage hu'ne, antu e'i Ramo'e! Saimon Pita'ma antahiama Rane higeno'a, amega kukena'a eri hankre'ne, (na'ankure timpi eri'za erinaku agra atova hutre'nereti ana hu'ne), timpi tkaureno nagosa runo ti ankenarega vu'ne.
Lowomfundi owayethandwa nguJesu wathi kuPhethro, “YiNkosi!” USimoni Phethro wonela ukuzwa esithi, “YiNkosi,” wazembathisa ngesigqoko sakhe sejazi (ngoba wayesikhulule) weqela emanzini.
8 Hianagi mago'a amage' nentaza disaipol naga'mo'za votifi e'naze. Na'ankure mopa afete'are omane'negeze. Hagi 100'a mita zaza'a hu'nege'za nozame zagamo avi'ma te'nea kukona avazu huzma e'naze.
Abanye abafundi balandela ngesikepe bedonsa umambule ugcwele inhlanzi ngoba babengakhatshana lasokhunjini, kwakungaba yizinyathelo ezilikhulu.
9 Zamagrama tinkenare e'za eme kazana tanknuza (sakol) teve hegre'nare, mago nozamene, breti'ne ana tevere menege'za ome ke'naze.
Ekufikeni kwabo okhunjini babona umlilo wamalahle uvutha kulenhlanzi phezulu kanye lesinkwa.
10 Jisasi'a zamagriku huno, Menima azeri'za nozamefinti mago'a eritma eho.
UJesu wathi kubo, “Lethani ezinye inhlanzi elizibambileyo.”
11 Higeno Saimon Pita'a votifi marerino ana kukona avazu huno tinkenare e'ne. Ranra nozamea 153'amo avite'ne, mago'a rama'a nozamemo kukompina ufre'neanagi, ana kukona tagato osu'ne.
USimoni Phethro wagada esikepeni, wadonsela umambule okhunjini. Wawugcwele inhlanzi ezinkulu, zilikhulu lamatshumi amahlanu lantathu, kodwa loba zinengi kangaka umambule kawudabukanga.
12 Jisasi'a zamagriku anage hu'ne, Eta nantera ne'za eme neho. Hianangi amage' nentaza disaipol nagapinti mago'mo, Kagra azage, hu'za antahige'zankura koro hu'naze, na'ankure zamagra Rane hu'za ko antahi'naze.
UJesu wathi kubo, “Wozani lizokudla.” Kakho kubafundi owaqunga isibindi sokumbuza ukuthi, “Ungubani wena?” Bakwazi ukuthi yiNkosi.
13 Jisasi'a eno breti emerino zamagrira nezmino, nozamea anazanke huno zami'ne.
UJesu weza, wathatha isinkwa wabanika, wenza njalo langenhlanzi.
14 Fri'nefinti Jisasi'ma otino zameri'neana, tagufa zupa amate efore huzmerige'za amage' nentaza disaipol naga'mo'za ke'naze.
Lesi kwasekuyisikhathi sesithathu uJesu ezibonakalisa kubafundi bakhe ngemva kokuvuswa kwabafileyo.
15 Nantera ne'zama nehna hutageno, Jisasi'a Saimon Pitanku huno, Saimon, Joni nemofoga, kagra ama vahe'zaga zamagterenka Nagrikura kvesinenantampi? Huno antahi'gegeno, Ozo Ramoka, Kagra antahi'nane, nagra navesi negantoe. Higeno Jisasi'a asmino, Sipisipi nagani'a ne'za zamio.
Sebeqedile ukudla, uJesu wathi kuSimoni Phethro, “Simoni, ndodana kaJohane, ungithanda ngeqiniso na okudlula laba abanye?” Wathi, “Yebo, Nkosi, uyakwazi ukuthi ngiyakuthanda.” UJesu wathi, “Phana amawundlu ami ukudla.”
16 Jisasi'a tare zupa mago'ene anage huno asmi'ne, Saimoni, Joni nemofoga, Nagrikura kave'nesio? Ozo, Ramoka, Kagra antahi'nane nagra Kagrira navesi negantoe, higeno Jisasi agriku huno, Sipisipi zaga'ni'a kegava huo.
UJesu waphinda wathi, “Simoni, ndodana kaJohane, uyangithanda ngeqiniso na?” Waphendula wathi, “Yebo, Nkosi, uyakwazi ukuthi ngiyakuthanda.” UJesu wathi, “Gcina izimvu zami.”
17 Higeno Jisasi'a tagufa zupa ana kege huno asmi'ne, Saimon, Joni nemofoga, Nagrikura kavesi nenantano? Higeno Pita'a arimpa kna hu'ne, na'ankure tagufa zupama Nagrikura kve'nesio? Huno antahigea zankure. Pita'a Agriku hu'ne, Ramoka, Kagra maka'zana antahi'nane. Nagrama navesi negantoana Kagra antahi'nane. Higeno Jisasi'a ke nona'a asmino, Sipisipi zaga'ni'a ne'zana zamio hu'ne.
Wasesithi kuye okwesithathu, “Simoni, ndodana kaJohane, uyangithanda na?” UPhethro wadabuka ngoba uJesu wambuza okwesithathu wathi, “Uyangithanda na?” Wathi, “Nkosi, uyazazi izinto zonke; uyakwazi ukuthi ngiyakuthanda.” UJesu wathi, “Phana izimvu zami ukudla.
18 Tamagerfa hu'na negasamue, Kagrama kahefa'ma mani'nantera kenakarera kamu'nofi hunka kavesi'zante kana vano hu'nane, hianagi ranafa resunka, kazana rutaresanke'za rumo'za kagrira kukena hugante'za, ovuku hanantega kavare'za vugahaze.
Ngikutshela iqiniso ngithi, usesemutsha wawuzigqokisa, uziyele lapho othanda khona; kodwa nxa usuluphele, uzakwelula izandla zakho, ugqokiswe ngomunye, akuhole akuse lapho ongafuni ukuya khona.”
19 (Menima Jisasi'ma hu'neana, Pitama henka frino Anumzamofoma ra agi ami'nia zanku huama hu'ne.) Ana kema Agra huteno, Jisasi'a Pita asmino, Namage anto! Huno asmi'ne.
UJesu wakutsho lokhu ebonisa indlela yokufa uPhethro ayezadumisa uNkulunkulu ngayo. Wasesithi kuye, “Ngilandela!”
20 Hagi Pita'a rukrahe huno keana, Jisasi'ma avesi avesi hunentegeno amage' nentea disaipoli ne'mo znavaririno e'ne. Ana nera Jisasi ahihi'zafi umase tragoteno ne'zama nenafima antahigeno, Ramoke, iza Kagrira vahe zamazampina kazerino antegahie? Huno antahige'nea ne' e'ne.
UPhethro wanyemukula wabona umfundi uJesu ayemthanda ebalandela. (Nguye lowo oweyama kuJesu esidlweni, owabuzayo wathi, “Nkosi, ngubani ozakuthengisa?”)
21 Pita'ma ana ne' negeno'a, Jisasina antahige'ne, Ramoke, ama nera nankna hugahie?
UPhethro wathi embona wathi, “Nkosi, kanti lo-ke?”
22 Jisasi'a ke nona'a agrira asmino, Nagrama, Agriku mani'nesige'na ete'na esuema hanua knarera, kagri'zana omne'neanki, na'ane hugahane? Kagra namage anto!
UJesu waphendula wathi, “Nxa ngifuna ukuthi asale ephila ngize ngibuye kulani lawe lokho? Wena kumele ungilandele.”
23 Higeno anama hu'nea kemo'a Jisasinte zamentinti nehaza nagate vuno eno higeno, ama'na disaipol nera ofrigahie hu'naze. Hianagi Jisasi'a, agrikura ofrigahie huno osu'ne, Hianagi frisio manisio Nagrama mani'nesigena e'tena esue hanuazamo'a kagri'zana omne'neanki, na'ane hugahane? huno hu'ne.
Ngenxa yalokhu, kwaba lehungahunga phakathi kwabazalwane lokuthi umfundi lo wayengezukufa. Kodwa uJesu katshongo ukuthi wayengezukufa; wathi nje kuphela, “Nxa ngifuna ukuthi asale ephila ngize ngibuye, kulani lawe lokho?”
24 Ama'na disaipol ne'mo agra'a amazana huama huno ana zantamina kre'ne, higeta tagra antahita agri kegura (testimoni) tamage huta nehune.
Lo nguye umfundi ozifakazayo lezizinto, onguye owazibhala phansi. Siyazi ukuthi ubufakazi bakhe buqotho.
25 Hagi hakare ruga'a zama Jisasi'a hu'nea zana me'ne, ana maka'zama avon tafepima kre'neresina, nagrama antahuana ama mopafina avon tafemo'a titipa higeno, anama kraza avontafe ante kankamuna omaneresine.
UJesu wenza ezinye izinto ezinengi njalo. Aluba zonke zazingabhalwa phansi, ngibona ingathi lomhlaba wonke wawuzaswela indawo yezincwadi ezazingabhalwa.
