Mateu 21
1 Sina Jesu ni barutwana bakwe ha ba chunina Jelusalema ni kwiza kwa Patepaje, he Lundu la Olive, linu Jesu a ba tumini barutwana ba kwe bobele,
Kwathi-ke sebesondele eJerusalema, sebefikile eBetfage entabeni yeMihlwathi, khona uJesu wathuma abafundi ababili,
2 na ba cho, “Muyende mu munzi wi chilila, mi ka pili ka mu kawane i ndonki i suminwe mwateni, ni kaana kayo. Mu zi sumunune mi mu zi lete kwa ngu.
esithi kubo: Hambani liye emzaneni okhangelene lani, lizahle libone ubabhemi ekhulekiwe, lethole lilaye; libakhulule, libalethe kimi.
3 Haiba muntu zumwi u wamba chi mwi ka zateni, mute kuti, “Simwine uzi saka; mi zuna mutu ka zitumine nanwe.”
Futhi uba umuntu ekhuluma ulutho kini, lizakuthi: INkosi iyabaswela; njalo uzahle abathumele.
4 Linu i chi chi ba chiteki kuti icho chi ba wambwa mupolofita chi zuzilizwe.
Njalo konke lokhu kwenzeka, ukuze kugcwaliseke okwakhulunywa ngumprofethi, ukuthi:
5 Nati, “wambile mwana wa mukazana wa zione, 'Bone, simwine wako ukezite kwako, Cha kuli booza hansi na tantite he donki, Ni ha kana kayo, ka na mani ke donki.”
Tshelani indodakazi yeSiyoni ukuthi: Khangela, iNkosi yakho iyeza kuwe, imnene igade ubabhemi, lethole inkonyana yenyamazana yokuthwala.
6 Linu barutwana ba ba yendi ni ku ka tenda bo bulyo mwa ba ba laeleli Jesu.
Abafundi bahamba-ke, benza njengalokhu uJesu wayebalayile,
7 Ba ba kaleti i donki ni mwana ni ku bika zizabalo za bo ha zili, mi Jesu a be kali ha zizwato.
baletha ubabhemi lethole, babeka izembatho zabo phezu kwabo, bamhlalisa phezu kwazo.
8 Bungi bwa bantu ba bazali zizabalo za bo mu i nzila, ba mwi ba batemi mi tayi ya zisamu ni ku i zala mu inzila.
Lenengi lexuku lendlala ezalo izembatho endleleni; labanye bagamula ingatsha zezihlahla, bazendlala endleleni.
9 Linu ikunga ibayendi Jesu naseni kuyenda ne ikunga ibechilili, na huweleza nati, “Hosana kumwana Daafita! Utonolofezwe ukeza mwinzina lya simwine! Hosana kuwina mwiwulu!”
Lamaxuku ayehamba phambili lababelandela bamemeza, besithi: Hosana kuyo iNdodana kaDavida! Ubusisiwe ozayo ebizweni leNkosi. Hosana kweliphezulu!
10 Linu Jesu heti chasika mwa Jelusalema, muleneñi wonse uba nyungani nibati, “Nyeni uzo?”
Esengenile eJerusalema umuzi wonke wanyakazela usithi: Ngubani lo?
11 Ibetabi, chiyati, “uzu nji Jesu uzwa mwa Nazaleta ina mwa Galileya.”
Amaxuku asesithi: Lo nguJesu umprofethi, oweNazaretha yeGalili.
12 Linu Jesu chenjila mwi tempele. Abahindiki babali kuwuzikiza mwi tempele, ni kuzulika intafule zamasheleñi ni zipula zonse zibabauzi hamwina.
UJesu wasengena ethempelini likaNkulunkulu, wabaxotsha bonke ababethengisa lababethenga ethempelini, wasegenqula amatafula ababentshintshelana imali, lezihlalo zalabo ababethengisa amajuba.
13 Abawambi kubali, “kuñoletwe kuti, 'Inzubo yangu kaisupwe kuti inzubo yetapelo,' kono inwe chimwaisandula chikunganino chabasa.”
Wasesithi kubo: Kulotshiwe ukuthi: Indlu yami izabizwa ngokuthi yindlu yomkhuleko; kodwa lina liyenze ubhalu lwabaphangi.
14 Linu zihofu ni zihole zibakezi kwali mwi tempele, mi nabahoza.
Kwasekufika kuye iziphofu leziqhuli ethempelini; wasezisilisa.
15 Mukulwana wamapulisita ni bañoli bababoni zintu zikomokisa zabantendi, mi singa bazuwa bahwile bahuweleza mwitempele ni bati, “Hosana kumwana a Daafita,” babanjilwa bukali.
Kodwa abapristi abakhulu lababhali sebebonile izimangaliso azenzayo, labantwana bememeza ethempelini, besithi: Hosana eNdodaneni kaDavida! bathukuthela,
16 Babati kwali, “Mane uzuwile zibakwete kuwamba aba bantu?” Jesu chati kubali, “Eni! Kono mane chimubabalite, 'Mutuholo twabachiche ni bapamba kuzwa milumbeko ihitiliza kukuluka'?”
basebesithi kuye: Uyakuzwa lokhu yini abakutshoyo laba? UJesu wasesithi kubo: Yebo; alikaze lifunde yini ukuthi: Emlonyeni wezingane lowabamunyayo uphelelise indumiso?
17 Linu Jesu na basiya ni kuya kumuleneñi wa Bethani mi abakalali kwateni.
Wasebatshiya waphuma phandle komuzi esiya eBethani, walala khona.
18 Linu kakusasa chabola kumuleneni, aba fwile inzala.
Kwathi ebuyela emzini ekuseni, walamba;
19 Kakubona chisamu chamuchaba kumbali ni nzila, abayendi kuchili mi abawani kuti kakwina chibikitwe kwateñi kunze yamakoba. Abawambi kuchili, “Kuzwa sunu kanzi nikube ni chichalantu kwako hape.” Imi kapilipili chisamu chamuchaba nichazuma. (aiōn g165)
kwathi ebona umkhiwa othile endleleni, wasondela kuwo, kodwa katholanga lutho kuwo ngaphandle kwamahlamvu wodwa; wathi kuwo: Kakungabe kusavela isithelo kuwe lanini. Njalo umkhiwa wahle wabuna. (aiōn g165)
20 Linu balutwana haba boni bulyo ni ba komokwa ni bati, “ku iza bule kuti i samu lwa muchaba hohwaho lizume?”
Kwathi bebona lokhu abafundi bakhe bamangala, besithi: Umkhiwa uhle wabuna njani?
21 Jesu ne taaba na ba cho, “cho kusa kusima ni kucho, haiba ni mwina i ntumelo mi ka mubi ni mi hupulo yobele, kete mutende fela chiba tendwa kweli isamu lya muchaba. 'Kono ka muole kuwamba kwe chi chi wuulu,' u katulwe mui uulu mi u sohelwe mu iwate,'
UJesu wasephendula wathi kubo: Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Uba lilokholo, lingathandabuzi, kaliyikwenza lokhu okomkhiwa kuphela, kodwa loba lisithi lakulintaba: Qutshunwa uphoselwe olwandle, kuzakwenzeka.
22 Mi mu ku chitahale. Chonse chi u kumbila che ntapelo, cha ku zumina, mo u tambule.”
Njalo konke loba kuyini elikucelayo emkhulekweni, likholwa, lizakwemukela.
23 Linu Jesu heza mwiitempele, muprisita mukulwana ni bakulwana babantu ni beeza kwali ha bali kuruta mi nacho, “chamaata ani ochita izi zintu? Mi wa akuha a amaata njeni?”
Kwathi esengenile ethempelini, abapristi abakhulu labadala babantu basondela kuye esafundisa, bathi: Izinto lezi uzenza ngaliphi igunya? Njalo ngubani okunike leligunya?
24 Jesu chobetaaba mi nabacho, “Ime name munimibuze impuzo imwina. Haiba nimuniwambila, name munimiwambile kuti chamaata nzi anichitisa izi zintu.
UJesu wasephendula wathi kubo: Lami ngizalibuza umbuzo ube munye; uba lingitshela lokhu, lami ngizalitshela ukuthi ngenza lezizinto ngaliphi igunya:
25 Inkolobezo ya Joani- ibazwi kuhi? Kuzwiila kwiwulu kamba kubantu?” Babali kuwambola mukati kaabo, ni bati, “Haiba nituti, 'Kuzwa kwiwulu,' mwati kwetu, 'Chizi linu hamusana mubamuzumini?'
Ubhabhathizo lukaJohane lwavela ngaphi? Ezulwini kumbe ebantwini? Basebekhulumisana, besithi: Uba sisithi: Ezulwini, uzakuthi kithi: Pho kalikholwanga kuye ngani?
26 Kono haiba nituti, 'Kuzwa kubantu,' tutiya ikunga, kakuli bonse babona Joani kuba mupolofita.”
Kodwa uba sisithi: Ebantwini, siyesaba ixuku; ngoba bonke bamphatha uJohane njengomprofethi.
27 Linu babetabi Jesu nibati, “Katwiizi,” Imi naye nabetaba nati, “Nanga ime keti chinimiwambila kuti nji ani maata anichita chawo izi zintu.
Basebemphendula uJesu bathi: Kasazi. Wasesithi kubo: Lami kangilitsheli ukuthi ngenza lezizinto ngaliphi igunya.
28 Kono iwe uzeza buti? Mukwame abena banaswisu bobele. Abayendi kuwetanzi mi nati, 'Mwanangu, kwiya ukasebeze muluwa lwe veine sunu.'
Kanti licabangani? Umuntu wayelamadodana amabili; waya kweyokuqala wathi: Mntanami, hamba, uyesebenza lamuhla esivinini sami.
29 Mwana abetabi nati, 'kani woli,' kono mumasulezana nachincha muhupulo wakwe mi nayenda.
Kodwa yaphendula yathi: Angifuni. Kodwa emva kwalokho yaphenduka, yahamba.
30 Imi mukwame nayenda kumwanaa kwe wabubeli mi nawamba chintu chiswana. Mwanaa kwe netaba nati, 'Kaniyende, sha,' kono kanabayendi.
Wasesiya kweyesibili watsho ngokunjalo. Yona-ke yaphendula yathi: Ngiyahamba, nkosi. Kodwa kayiyanga.
31 Kubana bobele yabachiti intato yeshabo?” Babati, “Wetanzi” Jesu nabacho, “Chabusakusima ni micho, bateliisi bamali ni mahuule mubakenjile mumubuso we Ireeza inwe nimuseni.
Yiyiphi kulawo amabili eyenza intando kayise? Bathi kuye: Eyokuqala. UJesu wathi kubo: Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Abathelisi lezifebe bayangena embusweni kaNkulunkulu phambi kwenu.
32 Mukuti Joani abezi kwenu chenzila ilukite, kono kanamubamuzumini, kono bateliisi bamali ni mahuule babamuzumini. Imi inwe, hamubona izo nizitendahala, kana mubabakeli zibe zenu kumamanimani kuti mumuzumine.
Ngoba uJohane wafika kini ngendlela yokulunga, kalikholwanga kuye; kodwa abathelisi lezifebe bakholwa kuye; kodwa lina selikubonile kaliphendukanga emva kwalokho ukuthi likholwe kuye.
33 Mutekeleze kwinguli imwi. Kubena mukwame, yabali sichibaka, Ababyalite iwa lyamuwoomba, nikubika lukwakwa kuzimbulusa, abashi chilubilo mwateni, abazaki ni ngalani yakubonena kulee, imi abaikalimi kubalimi bakalimite. Linu abayendi kuimwi inkanda.
Zwanini omunye umfanekiso. Kwakukhona umuntu othile ongumninimuzi, owahlanyela isivini, wasibiyela ngothango, wagebha isikhamelo kuso, wakha umphotshongo, wasiqhatshisa kubalimi, waya kwelinye ilizwe.
34 Imi inako yenkutulo yazichelantu haichunina, abatumi bahikana balikene kubabyali bamuwoomba kukahinda zichelantu zakwe.
Kwathi sekusondele isikhathi sezithelo, wathuma inceku zakhe kubalimi, ukuze zemukele izithelo zakhe.
35 Kono bakalimite mawa babahindi bahikana bakwe, kudama umwina, kwihaya zumwi, ni kugoboola zumwi ni mabwe.
Abalimi basebezibamba inceku zakhe, enye bayitshaya, lenye bayibulala, lenye bayikhanda ngamatshe.
36 Imi hape, siluwa abatumi bamwi bahikana, kuhita bamatangilo, kono babyali bamawa bababachiti chenzila iswana.
Wabuya wathuma ezinye inceku ezinengi kulezokuqala; basebesenza njalo kulezo.
37 Kuzwaho, mwine siluwa abatumini mwanaa kwe kubali, nikucho, 'Kabakakuteke mwanangu.'
Ekucineni wasethuma indodana yakhe kubo, esithi: Bazayihlonipha indodana yami.
38 Kono balimi bamuwoomba hababona mwana, chibaliwambila kuti, uzu nji swana. 'Mwize, tumwihaye tuyole chifumu.'
Kodwa abalimi sebeyibonile indodana bakhulumisana besithi: Le yindlalifa; wozani, siyibulale, njalo sibambe ilifa layo.
39 Linu chibamuhinda, chibamusohela hanze yaluwa lwamuwoomba, mi chiva mwihaya.
Basebeyibamba bayiphosela ngaphandle kwesivini, bayibulala.
40 Linu siluiwa heti nasike, kachite inzi kubalimi bewa lyamuwoomba?”
Ngakho mhla kufika umninisivini, uzabenzani abalimi labo?
41 Babawambi kwali nibacho, “Kasinyasinye abo bakwame bafosahele chenzila yachituhu chikando, mi kuzwaho mwakalime mawa amuwoomba kubamwi balimi bamuwoomba, bakwame bawola kuliha mowoomba haubuzwa.”
Bathi kuye: Uzababhubhisa kakubi labo ababi, njalo uzaqhatshisa isivini kwabanye abalimi, abazamnika izithelo ngezikhathi zazo.
42 Jesu nabati, “Kana mubeni kubala mumañolo, 'Musumo Ubabakani bazaki Ubatendwa Musumo wamwikona. Ichi chibali kuzwila kwa Simwine, mi chitabisa mumenso etu'?
UJesu wathi kubo: Alikaze lifunde yini emibhalweni ukuthi: Ilitshe abakhi abalalayo, yilo eseliyinhloko yengonsi; lokhu yikwenza kweNkosi; njalo kuyamangalisa emehlweni ethu?
43 Chobulyo nimicho, mubuso we Ireeza kauzwiswe kwenu mi kauhewe kuchisi chilichitila zichelatu icho chine.
Ngakho ngithi kini: Lizakwemukwa umbuso kaNkulunkulu, unikwe isizwe esithela izithelo zawo.
44 Yense yeti nawile heli ibwe mwachokoke bwemba. Kono iyemwine heti niliwile, kagazubuke.”
Lalowo owela phezu kwalelilitshe uzaphahlazwa; kodwa loba ngubani eliwela phezu kwakhe lizamchoboza.
45 Bakulwana bavapurista ni vafarisi habazuwa iyi inguli, babalemuhi kuti uwamba abo.
Kwathi abapristi abakhulu labaFarisi sebezwile imifanekiso yakhe bazi ukuthi ubekhuluma ngabo.
46 Chakusaka kumusumina, babalikutiya ikunga, mukuti bantu babali kumuhinda kuti mupolofita.
Kwathi sebedinga ukumbamba besaba amaxuku, ngoba ayemphatha njengomprofethi.
