Matayo 24
1 Awo Yesu bwe yali ng’ava mu luggya lwa Yeekaalu, abayigirizwa be ne bajja w’ali okumulaga enzimba ya Yeekaalu,
UJesu wathi esuka ethempelini esehamba abafundi bakhe beza kuye bathi kake ananzelele izakhiwo zalo.
2 naye n’abagamba nti, “Bino byonna temubiraba? Ddala ddala mbagamba nti tewaliba jjinja na limu eririsigala nga litudde ku linnaalyo eritalibetentebwa.”
Wathi, “Liyazibona na zonke lezizinto? Ngilitshela iqiniso ukuthi akulalitshe lapha elizasala liphezu kwelinye; wonke azabhidlizwa.”
3 Awo Yesu bwe yali ng’atudde ku lusozi olwa Zeyituuni, abayigirizwa be ne bajja gy’ali ne bamubuuza mu kyama nti, “Ebyo biribaawo ddi? Era kabonero ki akalitegeeza okujja kwo n’enkomerero y’ensi nti eri kumpi?” (aiōn g165)
Kwathi uJesu ehlezi eNtabeni yama-Oliva abafundi bakhe beza kuye ngasese bathi, “Sitshele, kuzakwenzakala nini lokhu na, njalo kuzakuba lesibonakaliso bani sokuza kwakho lokuphela kwesikhathi na?” (aiōn g165)
4 Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Temukkirizanga muntu yenna kubalimbalimba.
UJesu waphendula wathi, “Qaphelani ukuze lingakhohliswa muntu.
5 Kubanga bangi balijja mu linnya lyange nga bagamba nti, ‘Nze Kristo’, era balirimba bangi.
Ngoba abanengi bazakuza ngebizo lami besithi, ‘NginguKhristu,’ bakhohlise abanengi.
6 Munaatera okuwulira entalo n’eŋŋambo z’entalo. Temwekanganga, kubanga ebyo biteekwa okubaawo, naye enkomerero eriba tennatuuka.
Lizakuzwa ngezimpi lamahungahunga azo, kodwa lingaze lethuka. Izinto ezinjalo zizakwenzeka, kodwa ukucina kulokhu kuseza.
7 Amawanga galirwana ne gannaago, n’obwakabaka bulirwana n’obwakabaka, era walibaawo enjala mu bifo bingi ne musisi aliyuuguumya ebifo bingi.
Isizwe sizavukela isizwe, lombuso uvukele umbuso. Kuzakuba lendlala lokuzamazama komhlaba ezindaweni ezitshiyeneyo.
8 Naye bino byonna biriba ntandikwa butandikwa ng’ey’okulumwa okuzaala.”
Konke lokhu kuyikuqalisa kobuhlungu bokuhelelwa.
9 “Muliweebwayo ne mubonyaabonyezebwa era ne muttibwa, era mulikyayibwa amawanga gonna olw’erinnya lyange.
Lapho lizanikelwa ukuba lihlutshwe njalo libulawe, futhi lizazondwa yizizwe zonke ngenxa yami.
10 Era bangi balisendebwasendebwa okukola ebibi, n’abalala baliryamu bannaabwe olukwe, n’abalala ne bakyawagana.
Ngalesosikhathi abanengi bazadela ukukholwa banikelane njalo bazondane,
11 Era bannabbi ab’obulimba bangi balijja ne bawubisa abantu bangi.
kuvele abaphrofethi bamanga abanengi abazakhohlisa abantu abanengi.
12 Olw’obujeemu okuyinga obungi, era bangi okwagala kwabwe kuliwola.
Ngenxa yokwanda kobubi, uthando lwabanengi luzaphola,
13 Naye abo abaligumiikiriza okutuuka ku nkomerero be balirokolebwa.
kodwa lowo oma aqine kuze kube sekupheleni uzasindiswa.
14 Era Enjiri ey’obwakabaka eribuulirwa mu nsi yonna, nga bwe bujulirwa eri amawanga gonna n’oluvannyuma enkomerero n’eryoka etuuka.”
Njalo lelivangeli lombuso lizatshunyayelwa kuwo wonke umhlaba njengobufakazi kuzozonke izizwe, besekufika ukuphela.
15 “Noolwekyo bwe muliraba ‘eky’omuzizo eky’entiisa,’ nnabbi Danyeri kye yayogerako, nga kiyimiridde mu kifo ekitukuvu asoma bino ategeere,
Nxa libona kumi endaweni engcwele ‘amanyala aletha incithakalo,’okwakhulunywa ngomphrofethi uDanyeli, ofundayo kezwisise.
16 n’abo abalibeera mu Buyudaaya baddukiranga mu nsozi.
Lapho-ke akuthi labo abaseJudiya babalekele ezintabeni.
17 Alibeera waggulu ku kasolya, takkanga kuyingira mu nnyumba ye kubaako byaggyamu.
Akungabikhona osophahleni lwendlu ozakwehla phansi ukuyathatha ulutho endlini.
18 N’oyo alibeera mu nnimiro taddangayo eka okunonayo olugoye lwe.
Lowo osemasimini kangabuyeli ngekhaya ukuyathatha ijazi lakhe.
19 Naye ziribasanga abakyala abaliba balina embuto, n’abaliba bayonsa mu nnaku ezo.
Yeka ubulukhuni obuzakuba khona ngalezonsuku kwabesifazane abakhulelweyo labangabadlezane!
20 Naye musabe ekiseera ky’okudduka kireme kutuukira mu biro bya butiti oba ku lunaku lwa Ssabbiiti.
Khulekelani ukuba ukuphaphatheka kwenu kungabi sebusika loba ngeSabatha.
21 Kubanga wagenda kubeerawo okubonyaabonyezebwa okunene ennyo okutabangawo kasookedde ensi ebaawo era tewaliddayo kubaawo kikifaanana.
Ngoba ngalesosikhathi kuzakuba lokuhlupheka okukhulu, okungazange kube khona kulokhu kwadabuka umhlaba kuze kube manje, njalo kakusoze kube khona futhi.
22 Singa ennaku ezo tezakendezebwako, tewandibadde n’omu alokolebwa. Naye olw’abalonde be ennaku ezo zirikendezebwako.
Aluba lezinsuku bezingaphungulwanga, kakho obezaphepha, kodwa ngenxa yabakhethiweyo lezinsuku zizaphungulwa.
23 Bwe wabangawo omuntu agamba nti, ‘Kristo ali wano, oba ali wali,’ temubakkirizanga.
Nxa ngalesosikhathi omunye esithi kini, ‘Khangela, nangu uKhristu!’ loba ‘Ulaphaya!’ lingakukholwa lokho.
24 Kubanga bakristo ab’obulimba balijja, ne bannabbi ab’obulimba nabo balijja ne bakola eby’amagero n’ebyewuunyo; nga singa kibadde kisoboka, bandilimbyelimbye n’abalonde ba Katonda.
Ngoba oKhristu bamanga labaphrofethi bamanga bazavela benze izibonakaliso lezimangaliso ezinkulu ukukhohlisa kanye labakhethiweyo, nxa lokho kungenzeka.
25 Laba mbalabudde nga bukyali!”
Zwanini, sengihle ngalitshela mandulo kwesikhathi.
26 “Noolwekyo omuntu bw’abagambanga nti Kristo akomyewo ali eri mu ddungu, temugendangayo. Oba nti ali mu bisenge eby’omunda, temukkirizanga.
Ngakho-ke, nxa umuntu elitshela esithi, ‘Nanguyana, laphayana egangeni,’ lingayi khona loba athi, ‘Nangu lapha ezindlini ezingaphakathi,’ lingaze lakukholwa lokho.
27 Kubanga nga bwe mulaba okumyansa kw’eraddu nga kutabaala ebire okuva ebuvanjuba ne kusala okulaga ebugwanjuba, n’okujja kw’Omwana w’Omuntu bwe kutyo.
Ngoba njengombane osuka empumalanga uhle ubonakale lasentshonalanga, kuzakuba njalo ukufika kweNdodana yoMuntu.
28 Era mukimanyi nti awabeera ekifudde awo ensega we zikuŋŋaanira.”
Lapho okulesidumbu khona kulapho amanqe abuthana khona.
29 “Amangu ddala ng’okubonyaabonyezebwa “kw’omu nnaku ezo kuwedde, ‘enjuba eriggyako ekizikiza era n’omwezi teguliyaka, n’emmunyeenye zirigwa n’amaanyi g’eggulu galinyeenyezebwa.’”
Masinyane ngemva kokuhlupheka kwalezonsuku, ‘ilanga lizafiphala lenyanga kayiyikukhanya; izinkanyezi zizakuwa esibhakabhakeni, izisekelo zasezulwini zizazanyazanyiswa.’
30 “Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo akabonero k’Omwana w’omuntu kalirabika ku ggulu, era walibaawo okukungubaga kw’amawanga gonna ag’omu nsi, era baliraba Omwana w’Omuntu ng’ajja ku bire by’eggulu, mu maanyi ne mu kitiibwa ekinene.
Kulesosikhathi isibonakaliso seNdodana yoMuntu sizavela emkhathini, kuthi zonke izizwe zomhlaba zilile. Zizabona iNdodana yoMuntu isiza ngamayezi esibhakabhakeni, ilamandla lobukhosi obukhulu.
31 Era alituma bamalayika be nga bwe bafuuwa amakondeere mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka, ne bakuŋŋaanya abalonde be nga babaggya mu mpewo ennya okuva ku ludda olumu olw’eggulu okutuuka ku ludda olulala.”
Njalo izathumela izingilosi zayo zitshaya icilongo ngomsindo omkhulu, beseziqoqa abakhethiweyo bayo emagumbini womane omhlaba, kusukela ngapha kwamazulu kusiya ngale kwawo.
32 “Kale muyigire ku lugero lw’omutiini. Amatabi gaagwo bwe gatandika okutojjera nga mumanya nti ebiseera eby’ebbugumu binaatera okutuuka.
Manje-ke, fundani lesisifundo esihlahleni somkhiwa: Amahlumela aso angaqalisa ukuba buthakathaka lamahlamvu aso ahlume, lihle lazi ukuthi ihlobo selisondele.
33 Noolwekyo nammwe bwe muliraba ebintu ebyo byonna, nga mumanya nti ekiseera kiri kumpi, era kisemberedde ddala ku luggi.
Kanjalo-ke, nxa lingabona zonke lezizinto, lazi ukuthi sekusondele, khonapho emnyango.
34 Ddala ddala mbagamba nti, omulembe guno teguliggwaawo okutuusa ng’ebintu ebyo byonna bituukiridde.
Ngilitshela iqiniso, lesisizukulwane kasiyikudlula zize zenzakale zonke lezizinto.
35 Eggulu n’ensi biriggwaawo naye ebigambo byange tebiriggwaawo.”
Izulu lomhlaba kuzedlula, kodwa amazwi ami kawayikwedlula lanini.”
36 “Naye eby’olunaku olwo wadde essaawa tewali n’omu abimanyi, newaakubadde bamalayika ab’omu ggulu nabo tebakimanyi, wadde Omwana, okuggyako Kitaffe yekka.
“Kodwa kakho olwaziyo lolosuku lehola, loba izingilosi zasezulwini, kumbe iNdodana, kodwa uBaba kuphela.
37 Kubanga nga bwe kyali mu biseera bya Nuuwa, okujja kw’Omwana w’Omuntu nakwo bwe kuliba.
Njengoba kwakunjalo ensukwini zikaNowa, kuzakuba njalo ekufikeni kweNdodana yoMuntu.
38 Nga bwe kyali mu biseera by’amataba, abantu nga balya nga banywa, nga bawasa n’abalala nga bafumbirwa, olunaku ne lutuuka Nuuwa n’ayingira mu lyato,
Ngoba ensukwini ezandulela uzamcolo, abantu babesidla, benatha, bethatha njalo besenda, kwaze kwafika usuku uNowa angena ngalo emkhunjini;
39 abantu ne batamanya, amataba ne gajja ne gabasaanyaawo ne buli kintu, bwe kutyo n’okudda kw’Omwana w’Omuntu bwe kulibeera.
futhi babengazi lutho ngalokho okwakuzakwenzeka uzamcolo waze wafika wabatshabalalisa. Kuzakuba njalo ekufikeni kweNdodana yoMuntu.
40 Mu biseera ebyo abasajja babiri baliba bakola mu nnimiro, omu n’atwalibwa omulala n’alekebwa.
Kuzakuthi amadoda emabili esensimini, eyodwa izathathwa, eyinye isale.
41 Abakazi babiri baliba basa ku mmengo zaabwe mu nnyumba y’emu, omu n’atwalibwa omulala n’alekebwa.”
Kuzakuthi abesifazane bebabili bechola ngembokodo, oyedwa uzathathwa omunye asale.
42 “Noolwekyo mubeere beetegefu, kubanga olunaku Mukama wammwe lw’aliddirako temulumanyi.
Ngakho, lindani ngoba kalikwazi ukuthi iNkosi yenu izafika ngaluphi usuku.
43 Naye mutegeere kino: ssinga ssemaka amanya essaawa omubbi w’anaayingirira okumenya ennyumba ye, yandisigadde ng’atunula, n’ataganya mubbi kumuyingirira.
Kodwa zwisisani lokhu: Kube umninindlu wayekwazile ukuthi isela lizafika ngasiphi isikhathi sobusuku ngabe walinda kaze avumela ukuthi indlu yakhe igqekezwe.
44 Noolwekyo nammwe bwe mutyo mweteeketeeke, kubanga Omwana w’omuntu alijjira mu kiseera kye mutamulowoolezaamu.”
Ngakho lani hlalani lilindile, ngoba iNdodana yoMuntu izafika ngesikhathi leso elizabe lingayikhumbuleli sona.
45 “Kale aliwa omuddu omugezi era omwesigwa mukama we gwe yawa obuvunaanyizibwa okulabirira abaddu ab’omu maka ge, n’okubawa emmere mu kiseera ekituufu?
Ngubani kambe oyinceku ethembekileyo lehlakaniphileyo umninimuzi ayibeke esikhundleni sokukhangela izisebenzi zalapha ekhaya ukuthi azinike ukudla kwazo ngesikhathi esifaneleyo?
46 Alina omukisa omuddu oyo, mukama we gw’alisanga ng’akola bw’atyo.
Kuzakuba kuhle kuleyo nceku inkosi ezayifica isenza njalo ekuphendukeni kwayo.
47 Ddala ddala mbagamba nti, alimukwasa ebintu bye byonna.
Ngilitshela iqiniso, izakumbeka ukuthi aphathe yonke impahla yayo.
48 Naye obanga omuddu omubi bw’agamba mu mutima gwe nti, ‘Mukama wange tajja kudda mangu,’
Kodwa cabanga mhlawumbe inceku leyo ikhohlakele njalo ingazitshela ithi, ‘Inkosi yami isesekhatshana ukubuya,’
49 n’adda ku baddu banne, n’abakuba, n’alya, n’anywa n’abatamiivu, okutuusa lw’alidda.
ibisiqalisa ukutshaya ezinye izinceku njalo lokudla inatha lezidakwa.
50 Mukama w’omuddu oyo n’akomawo ku lunaku lw’atamusuubidde ne mu kiseera ky’atamanyi,
Inkosi yaleyonceku izabuya ngosuku engacatshangelwa khona langesikhathi inceku engasaziyo.
51 alimubonereza, era omugabo gwe guliba okubeera awamu n’abannanfuusi, eriba okukaaba n’okuluma obujiji.”
Izayiqumaquma, iyiphe indawo kanye labazenzisi, lapho okuzakuba khona ukukhala lokugedla kwamazinyo.”
