Luka 11
1 Kubatendahali imwi inako Jesu haba kulapela muchibaka chimwi, mulutwana yenke chawamba kwali, “Simwine, tulute kulapela sina Johani mwaba lutili balutwani bakwe kulapela.”
Kwasekusithi ekhuleka endaweni ethile, eseqedile, omunye wabafundi bakhe wathi kuye: Nkosi, sifundise ukukhuleka, njengoJohane laye wafundisa abafundi bakhe.
2 Jesu chati kubali, “Hamulapela muwambe, 'Tayo, izina lyako lijolozwe. Mubuso wako ukeze.
Wasesithi kubo: Nxa likhuleka, libokuthi: Baba wethu osemazulwini, kalihlonitshwe ibizo lakho. Umbuso wakho kawuze. Intando yakho kayenziwe, lemhlabeni njengezulwini.
3 Utuhe chinkwa chetu mwi izuba ne zuba.
Siphe usuku ngosuku ukudla kwethu kwensuku zonke.
4 Utu ondere zibi zetu, sina mutu ondera muntu ni muntu yowina mulandu kwetu. Sanzi ututwali mumuliko.”
Njalo usithethelele izono zethu, ngoba lathi sibathethelela bonke abalamacala kithi. Njalo ungasingenisi ekulingweni, kodwa usikhulule ebubini.
5 Jesu chawamba kubali, “Njeni kwenu yowina mulikani, mi uyenda kwali hakati kamasiku, nokumuwambila, 'Mulikani, nikolotise zinkwa zotatwe', 6
Wasesithi kubo: Nguwuphi kini olomngane, futhi aye kuye phakathi kobusuku, athi kuye: Mngane, ngeboleka izinkwa ezintathu,
6 chinga sikira mulikanangu kukazwa munzira, mi kanina chimwi cho kumuyumbula,
ngoba kufike kimi umngane wami evela ekuhambeni, kodwa kangilalutho engingalubeka phambi kwakhe;
7 Yavena mukanti chamucho kuti, 'kanji uni katazi. Mulyango we yaliwa kale, mi bana bangu, bena neme, bena habulalo. Kani oli kubuka ni kukuha nchinkwa.'
longaphakathi aphendule athi: Ungangihluphi; umnyango usuvaliwe, labantwana bami abancane balami embhedeni; kangingeke ngivuke ngikunike.
8 Nikuwambila, nihasabuki kuti akuhe nchinkwa, kakuli umulikani wakwe. Ibaka lyako lyo kundundamena kwako nosa swabi, mwabuke no kukuha zikwa zingi zosaka.
Ngithi kini: Loba engazukuvuka amnike, ngoba engumngane wakhe, kodwa ngenxa yokuphikelela kwakhe uzavuka amnike konke akuswelayo.
9 Ime name nikuwambila, kumbile, mi mowane; ngane, mi mowane; ngongote, mi mowi yalwilwe.
Mina-ke ngithi kini: Celani, lizaphiwa; dingani, lizathola; qoqodani, lizavulelwa.
10 Muntu yense yokumbila uhewa; mi muntu yongana uwana; mi kumuntu yo ngongota, mweyalwilwe.
Ngoba wonke ocelayo uyemukela; lodingayo uyathola; loqoqodayo uyavulelwa.
11 Mushemi inzi wechi kwame hakati kenu, haiba mwanakwe wechi swesu hamu kumbila inswi, momuhe izoka kapa inswi?
Kambe, nguwuphi kini onguyise ongathi indodana icela isinkwa, ayinike ilitshe? Loba-ke inhlanzi, ayinike inyoka endaweni yenhlanzi yini?
12 Kapa hakumbila iye, kana momuhe kabumwe?
Uba-ke icela iqanda, ayinike ufezela yini?
13 Nihakubabulyo, haiba inwe mwina buvi mwizi kuha impo zilotu kubana benu, linu Ishenu yowina kwiulu, kahe zikuma kuhi ku bamukumbila luhuho lujolola?”
Ngakho uba lina elingababi likwazi ukupha abantwana benu izipho ezinhle, kakhulu kangakanani uBaba osezulwini ezabapha uMoya oNgcwele abacela kuye.
14 Imwi inako, Jesu aba kuhindikira hanze indimona, mi ibali satambi. Chikupangahala kuti indimona halizwa, mukwame abali satambi chatanga kuwamba. Chisi chicha komokwa!
Wayesekhupha idimoni, elaliyisimungulu. Kwasekusithi, seliphumile idimoni, wakhuluma oyisimungulu; amaxuku asemangala.
15 Linu bamwi bantu chibawamba, Cheziho za Beelzebule, simwine wa madimona, uzwesa madimona.
Kodwa abanye babo bathi: Ukhupha amadimoni ngoBhelezebhule inkosi yamadimoni.
16 Bamwi chibamulika kuti aba tondeze chisupo chizwa kwiulu.
Labanye bemlinga badinga kuye isibonakaliso esivela ezulwini.
17 Linu Jesu kokwiziba mihupulo yabo, chabawambila kuti, “Mubuso ni mubuso ose olikauhanya ushala niu kauhene, Mi inzubo ili kauhanya iyo ine kaiwe.
Kodwa yena eyazi imicabango yabo wathi kubo: Wonke umbuso owehlukene umelene lawo ngokwawo uyachitheka; njalo indlu emelene lendlu iyadilika.
18 Haiba Satani uli kauhanya iye mwine, mubuso wakwe uzimana bule? Inwe muwamba kuti ime ni zwisa ihuho ca Beelzebule.
Njalo uba uSathane laye ehlukene emelane laye ngokwakhe, umbuso wakhe uzakuma njani? Ngoba lithi, ngikhupha amadimoni ngoBhelezebhule.
19 Haiba nini zwisa mandimona ca Beelzebule, chwale balutwani benu ba zwisa chani hanze? Bakeñi chezi, mubabe baatuli benu.
Njalo uba mina ngikhupha amadimoni ngoBhelezebhule, amadodana enu akhupha ngobani? Ngakho wona azakuba ngabagwebi benu.
20 Kono haiba nizwesa mandimona chomunwe we Ireza, linu muvuso we Ireza chiweza kwenu.
Kodwa uba ngikhupha amadimoni ngomunwe kaNkulunkulu, isibili umbuso kaNkulunkulu usufikile kini.
21 Linu mukwame yokolete yokwete zilwiso namamela izubo yakwe, zibya zakwe zina mwipabalelo ina hande,
Uba isiqhwaga sihlomile silinda owaso umuzi, impahla yaso isekuthuleni;
22 Linu mukwame yokolete hamukoma, mukwame yokolete uhinda zilwaniso zakwe, mi uzenenga chifumu chakwe.
kodwa nxa olamandla kulaso esisukela asinqobe, uyasemuka izikhali zaso ebesithembele kuzo, abesesaba impango yaso.
23 Yase yasena name unisandukile, yasakunganyi name uhasanya.
Ongelami umelene lami; longabuthi lami uyachithiza.
24 Luhuho lubi haluzwa kumutu, lu yenda muchibaka chisena menzi ni kungana chibaka cho kupumwira. Halubula, luli wambila, 'Munibole kwizubo kunakazwa.'
Nxa umoya ongcolileyo esephumile emuntwini, uyahamba adabule indawo ezomileyo, edinga ukuphumula; kodwa engakutholi athi: Ngizabuyela endlini yami engaphuma kuyo;
25 Halubola, lukawana kuti izubo ifiyelwe ni kubikwa hande.
njalo esefikile ayifice ithanyelwe njalo ilungisiwe.
26 Mi lubola ni kukahinda amwi madimona akwana iyaza nio bele alihita kulunya mi onse enjila nikuhala mwateni. Linu bwikalo bwama manimani bozo muntu mubube bubilala nikuhita bwe ntanzi.”
Abesehamba azithathele abanye omoya abayisikhombisa ababi kulaye uqobo, bangene bahlale lapho; njalo ukucina kwalowomuntu kube kubi kulokuqala.
27 Kubapangahali vuti, habakuwamba inzi zintu, mwanakazi zumwi aba huwelezi kuhita mazwe a chisi, ni kuwamba kwali, “Lina itohonolo ibumo liba ku hwizumuki ni beere libakunyonsi.”
Kwasekusithi ekhuluma lezizinto, owesifazana othile exukwini waphakamisa ilizwi, wathi kuye: Sibusisiwe isisu esakuthwalayo, lamabele owawamunyayo.
28 Linu iye chati, “Chobulyo, bena itohonolo njabana bazuwa linzwi lya Ireza nikulili vikira.”
Kodwa yena wathi: Kodwa ikakhulu babusisiwe abalizwayo ilizwi likaNkulunkulu balilondoloze.
29 Linu chisi hachibali kukopana nanga bantu bangi, chotanga kuwamba, “Uwu murahi - murahi mubilala. Usaka chisupo, kono kakwina chisupo chite chihewe kuwuli konji chisupo cha Jonasi.
Kwathi sekubuthene amaxuku eminyene, waqala ukuthi: Lesi isizukulwana sibi; sidinga isibonakaliso, kodwa kasiyikunikwa isibonakaliso, ngaphandle kwesibonakaliso sikaJona umprofethi.
30 Sina mwababiri Jonasi chisupo kuvene Nenive, Linu ku Mwana wa Muntu mwabe chisupo kounu murahi.
Ngoba njengalokhu uJona waba yisibonakaliso kwabeNineve, leNdodana yomuntu izakuba njalo kulesisizukulwana.
31 Simwine wa mwanakazi welu hati lwa chilyo mwazimane hekatulo ni mukwame wowuni murahi niku banyansa, linu aba kazwi kuma mani - mani a nkanda kwiza kuzuwa maano a Solomoni, mi mubone zumwi kuhita Solomoni kwena hanu.
Indlovukazi yeningizimu izasukuma ekugwetshweni kanye lamadoda alesisizukulwana, iwalahle; ngoba yavela emikhawulweni yomhlaba ukuzakuzwa inhlakanipho kaSolomoni, njalo khangelani, omkhulu kuloSolomoni ulapha.
32 Mukwame wa Nenibe kazimane he nkatulo nowu murahi wa batu ni kuunyaza, Linu baba baki henkutazo ya Jonasi, mi mubone, zumwi mukando kwa Jonasi zunu hanu.
Amadoda eNineve azasukuma ekugwetshweni kanye lalesisizukulwana, asilahle; ngoba aphenduka ngokutshumayela kukaJona, njalo khangelani, omkhulu kuloJona ulapha.
33 Kakwina zumwi, hamana kumunik i lambi, nokulibika mukerima, kamba mwikonde lye chitanda, kono hama biko a lambi iri kuti benjila bawane iseri.
Futhi kakho othi eselumathise isibane asibeke ekusithekeni, loba ngaphansi kwesitsha, kodwa phezu kwesiqobane sesibane, ukuze abangenayo babone ukukhanya.
34 Menso ako nji lambi yomubili. Haiba menso ako ena hande, mubili ose wizwire iseli. Kono haiba linso lyako ivi, mubili wako wiizwere kerima.
Isibane somzimba yilihlo; ngakho nxa ilihlo lakho liphilile, lomzimba wakho wonke ugcwele ukukhanya; kodwa nxa lilibi, lomzimba wakho ulobumnyama.
35 Nihakwinabulyo, mutokomere kuti iseli lina kwenu kena kerima.
Ngakho qaphela ukuthi ukukhanya okukuwe kungabi ngumnyama.
36 Nihakwinabulyo, mubili wako ose wina iseli, nikusena i mbali yomubili wako mu kerima, Linu mubili wako onse muuswane ubu i lambi haibenya choku njoloza kwako.”
Ngakho uba umzimba wakho wonke ugcwele ukukhanya, ungelandawo emnyama, uzakhanya wonke, njengesibane sikukhanyisa ngokukhanya.
37 Hamana kuwamba, Mufalisi chomukumbira kuti bakalye naye kwizubo yakwe, mi Jesu choyenda chokekala ha zilyo.
Kwathi esakhuluma, umFarisi othile wamcela ukuthi adle laye; wasengena wahlala ekudleni.
38 Mufarisi chokomokwa kuti kena aba tangi kusambi naseni kulalila.
Kwathi umFarisi ebona lokhu wamangala ukuthi kazange aqale ageze phambi kokudla kwemini.
39 Kono Simwine chali kwali, “hanu chwale, inwe Mafarisi muchenise inkomoki ni tusuba hanze, kono mukati kenu mwina feela belyavi, nibubilala.
Yasisithi iNkosi kuye: Khathesi lina baFarisi lihlambulula ingaphandle yenkezo leyesitsha, kodwa ingaphakathi yenu igcwele ukuphanga lobubi.
40 Inwe bantu musena ingana! Kena kuti yaba pangi hanze njiyena hape yopanga mukati?
Zithutha, yena owenza ingaphandle kayenzanga yini lengaphakathi?
41 Muhe ku babotana zina mukati, mi zintu zonse njisezi chene kwenu.
Kodwa phanini zibe yizipho zabayanga lezozinto ezingaphakathi; khangelani-ke, konke kuzahlambuluka kini.
42 Kono bumayi kwenu inwe Mafarisi, kakuli muzwisa chintu chonke kuze kumi, minta ni kumini mwiwa lyezi byalantu, kono kamu bileli niswanero ni lato lya Ireza. Kwina hande kupanga nceswanero ni kusaka Ireza, nikusa kangwa kupanga zimwi zintu nazo.
Kodwa maye kini baFarisi! Ngoba lithela okwetshumi kwetshwayi leganga leruwi, lakuyo yonke imibhida, njalo liseqa ukwehlulela lothando lukaNkulunkulu; belifanele ukwenza lezizinto, lingakuyekeli lalokhu.
43 Bumaiye kwenu inwe mafarisi, kakuli musaka zipula zokubusu mu masinagoge ni kulu meriswa chekute kuzibaka zemusika.
Maye kini baFarisi! Ngoba lithanda izihlalo zabahloniphekayo emasinagogeni, lokubingelelwa emidangeni.
44 Bumaye kwenu, kakuli muswana sina makumbu asena maswayo, bantu baalyata niba sezi.”
Maye kini, babhali labaFarisi, bazenzisi! Ngoba lifanana lamangcwaba angabonakaliyo, labantu abahamba phezu kwawo bengawazi.
45 Mi muruti zumwi omu lao wama juda chamwitaba nokuwamba kuti, “Muruti, zowamba zitu tuka neswe.”
Omunye wezazumthetho wasephendula wathi kuye: Mfundisi, ngokutsho lezizinto uyasithuka lathi.
46 Jesu chawamba, “Bumaye kwenu, baruti bomulao! Linu mulemeza batu ni miziyo ibasa oli kuhinda, kono inwe mani kamukwati iyo miziyo ni kanwe kenu konke.
Kodwa wathi: Maye lakini zazumthetho! Ngoba lethwesa abantu imithwalo enzima ukuthwalwa, kodwa lina uqobo lwenu kaliyithinti leyomithwalo langomunye weminwe yenu.
47 Bumaye kwenu, kakuli muzakila ba polofita' makumbu, akubazezela ho, mi bazimu benu ba babehayi.
Maye kini! Ngoba lakha amangcwaba abaprofethi, njalo oyihlo bababulala.
48 Mi mwipaki hape niku zumina misebizi yaba ziimu benu, kakuli cheniti luli babe hayi Baporofita, avo makumbu abo akuba zezela ho.
Ngalokhu-ke lifakaza ukuthi livumelana lemisebenzi yaboyihlo; ngoba bona bababulala, lina-ke liyawakha amangcwaba abo.
49 Cheri ibaka nalyo, butali bwe Ireza vuva cho, 'Muni tumine kubali bapolofita ni ba apositola, mi mubaba nyandise ni kwihaya bamwi.
Ngalokhu-ke inhlakanipho kaNkulunkulu yathi: Ngizabathuma abaprofethi labaphostoli, labanye babo bazababulala babaxotshe;
50 Uwu murazi, chwale, kababe nikulitabilira, kuamana ni malaha aba polofita avava tiri chinga libatangi ifasi.
ukuze kubizwe kulesisizukulwana igazi labaprofethi bonke elachithwa kusukela ekusekelweni komhlaba,
51 kuzwa kumalaha a Abele kuya kumalaha a Zakaria, yabe hailwa hakati ka katala ni chihalaleho. Eni, niwamba kwenu, Owu murahi kaulitabilile.
kusukela egazini likaAbela kuze kufike egazini likaZakariya owabulawa phakathi laphakathi kwelathi lendlu kaNkulunkulu; yebo, ngithi kini: Lizabizwa kulesisizukulwana.
52 Bumayi kwenu maruti bo mulao wa Majuda, kakuti chimubahindi inkii yenzibo; inwe mubene kamwinjili mwateni, mi mukanisa abo basaka kwinjila.
Maye kini zazumthetho! Ngoba lisusile isihluthulelo solwazi; kalingenanga lina uqobo lwenu, labangenayo labavimbela.
53 Jesu hachazwele kwateni, bañoli ni Mafarisi chiba mukananisa ni kumu lwanisa kuamana zintu zingi,
Kwathi ekhuluma lezizinto kubo, ababhali labaFarisi baqala ukumngxamela kakhulukazi, lokumbuzisisa ngezinto ezinengi,
54 Kulika kumuchesa mumanzwi akwe.
bemthiya, bedinga ukubamba ulutho oluphuma emlonyeni wakhe, ukuze bambeke icala.
