UJohane 10
1 “Ngikhuluma iqiniso ukuthi umuntu ongangeni ngesango esibayeni sezimvu kodwa akhwele kwenye indawo ulisela lomphangi.
Aminiayi, aminiayi nikabhajobhela, jhola jhaijhingila lepi kwa kup'etela ndiangu ghwa zizi lya likondoo, lakini ikwela kwa njela jhenge, munu ojhu meji na mmang'anyi.
2 Umuntu ongena ngesango nguye umelusi wezimvu.
Muene jha ijhingila pa ndiangu ndo n'dimaji ghwa kondoo.
3 Umlindi wesango uyamvulela, lezimvu ziyalilalela ilizwi lakhe. Izimvu zakhe uzibiza ngamabizo azikhokhele.
Kwamuene mlinzi ghwa ndiangu akan'dendulila. Kondoo bhakajhip'eleka sauti jha muene kwa mahina gha bhene ni kubhahomesiya kwibhala.
4 Nxa esezivulele zonke ezakhe, uhamba phambi kwazo, izimvu zakhe zimlandele ngoba ziyalazi ilizwi lakhe.
Paibetakubhahomesya kwibhala abhu bha bhajhele bha muene, akabhalongolela, ni kondoo bhakan'kesya, kwa ndabha bhajhimanyili sauti jha jha muene.
5 Kodwa kazisoze zilandele owemzini; iqiniso yikuthi zizambalekela ngoba kazilazi ilizwi lowemzini.”
Bhibetalepi kun'kesya n'geni lakini badala jhiake bhibetakunjepa, kwandabha bhasimanyilepi sauti sya bhahesya.”
6 UJesu wasebenzisa umzekeliso lo kodwa kabakuzwisisanga lokho ayebatshela khona.
Yesu ajobhili mfano obhu kwa bhene, lakini bhaghayelibhu lepi mambo agha ambagho aghajobhaghe kwa bhene.
7 Ngakho uJesu waphinda wathi, “Ngilitshela iqiniso ukuthi mina ngiyilo isango lezimvu.
Yesu akajobha nabhu kabhele, “Aminiayi, aminiayi, nikabhajobhela, Nene na ndiangu ghwa kondoo.
8 Bonke asebake bafika phambi kwami babengamasela labaphangi kodwa izimvu kazibalalelanga.
Bhoha bhanilongolili ndo bhaheji ni bhanyang'anyi, lakini kondoo bhamp'elekisi lepi.
9 Mina ngiyilo isango; loba ngubani ongena ngami uzasindiswa. Uzangena, aphume, afumane idlelo.
Nene na ndiangu. Yejhioha jha ijhingila kup'etela kwa nene, ibetakuokolibhwa; ibetakujhingila mgani ni kuhoma, nu muene ibetakwikabhila malisho.
10 Isela lilanda ukweba lokubulala lokubhubhisa kuphela; mina ngilande ukuze zibe lokuphila, zibe lakho ngokugcweleyo.
Meji ihidalepi kup'etela kwa nene kuheja kukoma, ni kujhangamisya. Nihidili ili kwamba bhakabhayi bhuzima na bhajhela nabhu tele.
11 Ngingumelusi olungileyo. Umelusi olungileyo unikela ukuphila kwakhe izimvu zakhe.
Nene n'dimaji nnofu. N'dimaji nnofu ibhosya bhuhai bhwa muene, kwa ndabha jha kondoo.
12 Oqhatshiweyo kasuye umelusi ongumnini wezimvu. Yikho nxa ebona iganyana lisiza, uyazitshiya izimvu abaleke. Iganyana beseliwuhlasela umhlambi liwuhlakaze.
N'tumishi jha aajaribhu, na n'dimaji lepi, ambajhe kondoo mali jha muene lepi, akabhabhona mbwa mwitu bhihida ni kubhaleka ni kubhajumba kondoo.
13 Umuntu lo ubaleka ngoba eyisiqhatshwa, kazikhathaleli izimvu.
Ni mbwa mwitu bhakabhakamula ni kubhatawanya. Ghijumba kwa ndabha ndo n'tumishi ghwa kuajiribhwa ni kubhajalilepi kondoo.
14 Mina ngingumelusi olungileyo; ngiyazazi izimvu zami njalo lezimvu zami ziyangazi
Nene na n'dimaji nnofu, na nibhamanyili bhabhajhele bha nene, nabhene bhabhajhele bha nene bhanimanyi nene.
15 njengoba uBaba engazi lami ngiyamazi, nginikela ukuphila kwami ezimvini zami.
Dadi animanyi nene, nani nimmanyi muene, nani nikambhosya uhai bhwa jhoni kwa ndabha jha kondoo.
16 Ngilazo ezinye izimvu ezingasizo zalumhlambi. Lazo kumele ngizilethe. Lazo futhi zizalilalela ilizwi lami ukuze kube lomhlambi owodwa lomelusi oyedwa.
Nijhenabhu kondoo bhangi ambabho sio bhazinzi e'le. Abhu pia, nilondeka kubhaleta, nabhanu bhibhetakujhip'eleka sauti jha nene ili kwamba pajhiaghe ni likundi limonga ni n'dimaji mmonga.
17 Isizatho sokuba uBaba angithande yikuthi ngiyayinikela impilo yami, ngizaphinde ngiyithathe futhi.
Ejhe ndo sababu Dadi aniganili: Niubhosiajhi bhuhai bhwa nene halafu niuletayi kabhele.
18 Kakho ongithathela yona kodwa ngiyinikela ngokufisa kwami. Ngilalo ilungelo lokuyinikela lelungelo lokuphinde ngiyithathe. Umlayo lo ngawamukela uvela kuBaba.”
Ajhelepi jhaibetakutola kuhomela kwa nene, lakini nene nikaupisya ne muene. Nijhe ni mamlaka gha kupisya, nanijhe ni mamlaka gha kubhuleta pia. Nilijhamb'elili lilaghisu e'le kuhomela kwa Dadi.”
19 Amazwi aphinda enza amaJuda adabuka phakathi.
Mgawanyiku kabhele ghwibetakuh'omela kati jha bhayahudi kwandabha jha malobhi agha.
20 Amanengi kuwo athi, “Uledimoni, uyawumana njalo uyahlanya. Limlalelelani?”
Bhingi bhakajobha, “Ajhe ni pepo na ig'oloka. Kwandabha jhakiki mkampel'ekesya?”
21 Kodwa amanye athi, “La kayisiwo mazwi omuntu oledimoni. Idimoni lingawavula njani amehlo esiphofu?”
Bhangi bhakajobha, “Agha sio malobhi gha munu ghwa apagawe ni mapepo. Pepo libhwesya kufungula mihu gha kipofu?”
22 Kwafika uMkhosi Wokuzinikela eJerusalema. Kwakusebusika,
Ndipo ikahida Sikukuu jha Kubhekibhwa Wakfu Yerusalemu.
23 uJesu esemagumeni ethempeli ezihambela eKhulusini likaSolomoni.
Bhwajhele bhwakati bhwa mepu, ni Yesu ajhele igenda mu lihekalu mu ukumbi bhwa Selemani.
24 AmaJuda ayembuthanele athi kuye, “Kuzaze kube nini ulokhu usitshiya silengile na? Nxa unguye uKhristu, sitshele kuhle.”
Ndipo Bhayahudi bho bhan'syonguiki ni kun'jobhela, “Mpaka ndali wibetakutubheka mu mashaka? kama bhebhe ndo Kristu, tujobhilayi wazi.
25 UJesu waphendula wathi, “Ngalitshela kodwa kalikholwa. Imimangaliso engiyenzayo ngebizo likaBaba iyangifakazela,
Yesu abhajibili, “Nimali kubhajobhela lakini mwikiera lepi mbombo syanibhomba kwa lihina lya Dadi jhangu, esu sishuhudilajuu jha nene.
26 kodwa kalikholwa ngoba kalisizo zimvu zami.
Hata naha, mwikiera lepi kwa ndabha muenga sio kondoo bha nene.
27 Ezami izimvu ziyalilalela ilizwi lami; ngiyazazi lazo ziyangilandela.
Kondoo bha nene bhakajhipeleka sauti jha nene; Nibhamanyili, nabho bhakanikesya nene.
29 UBaba wami yena ongiphe zona mkhulu kulakho konke, kakho ongazihlwitha esandleni sikaBaba
Dadi jhangu, jhanipelili abhu, ndo mbaha kuliko bhangi bhoha, na ajhelepi ata mmonga jha ajheni bhuwezo bhwa kubhanyakula mu mabhoko gha Dadi.
30 Mina loBaba simunye.”
Nene ni Dadi tujhe pamonga.”
31 Aphinda njalo amaJuda adobha amatshe ukuba amkhande,
Bhakap'enda maganga ili bhampondayi kabhele.
32 kodwa uJesu wathi kuwo, “Ngilitshengisile imimangaliso emikhulu eminengi evela kuBaba. Yiwuphi phakathi kwayo elingikhandela wona ngamatshe?”
Yesu akabhajibu, “Nimalikubhalasya mbombo simehele sinofu kuhomela kwa Dadi. Kwa mbombo seleku kati jha esu mwilonda kuniponda maganga?”
33 “Kasikukhandeli misebenzi emihle oyenzileyo kodwa sikukhandela ukuhlambaza, ngoba wena, umuntu nje, uzenza uNkulunkulu.”
Bhayahudi bhakan'jibu, “Tukupondalepi maganga kwa mbombo jhinofu, lakini kwa kufuru, kwa ndabha bhebhe, ghwe munu ukifuanya kujha Mungu,”
34 UJesu waphendula wathi, “Kakulotshwanga yini eMthethweni wenu ukuthi, ‘Ngitshilo ukuthi “lingonkulunkulu?”’
Yesu akabhajibu, “Jhalembibhu lepi mu sheria jha muenga, 'Najobhili, “Muenga ndo miungu”'?”
35 Nxa wababiza ngokuthi ‘ngonkulunkulu,’ bona labo ilizwi elafika kubo, njalo uMbhalo kawephulwa
Ikajha abhakutili miungu, kwa bhala ambabho lilobhi lya K'yara lyabhahidili (ni Majhandiku ghibhwesyalepi kubomolibhwa),
36 pho-ke kungathiwani kulowo uBaba amkhethileyo ukuba ngowakhe wamthumela emhlabeni na? Kungani pho lingibeka icala lokuhlambaza ngoba ngithe ngiyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu?
mwijobha juu jha hola ambajhe Dadi an'homisi ni kundaghisya ku ulimwengu, 'Ghwikufuru,' kwa ndabha najobhili, 'nene na mwana ghwa K' yara'?
37 Lingangikholwa ngaphandle kokuba ngenze okwenziwa nguBaba.
Ikajhiajhi nibhomba lepi mbombo sya Dadi jhangu, musin'kieri.
38 Kodwa nxa ngikwenza, lanxa lingangikholwa, kholwani ubufakazi bemimangaliso ukuze lifunde njalo lizwisise ukuthi uBaba ukimi, lami ngikuBaba.”
Hata ivyo, ikajhiajhi nikasibhomba, hata kama mkanikiera lepi, musikierayi mbombo ili kwamba mubhwesyajhi kumanya kwamba Dadi ajhele mugati mwa nene ni nene nijhele mugati mwa Dadi.”
39 Baphinda njalo bazama ukumbamba kodwa waphunyuka.
Bhakajaribu kabhele kun'kamula Yesu, lakini akalota kuhoma mumabhoko gha bhene.
40 UJesu wabuyela ngaphetsheya kweJodani kuleyondawo lapho uJohane ayebhaphathizela khona ensukwini ezedlulayo. Wahlala khona,
Yesu akalota kabhele kwiseli jha Yorodani sehemu ambajho Yohana abatisieghe, ni kutama oku.
41 abantu abanengi beza kuye. Bathi, “Lanxa uJohane engazange enze umangaliso, kodwa konke lokho uJohane akutshoyo ngomuntu lo kwakuliqiniso.”
Bhanu bhingi bhakahida kwa Yesu. Bhakayendelela kujobha, “Yohana kueli abhombilepi ishara jhejhioha, lakini mambo ghoha gha aghajobhili Yohana juu jha munu ojho ni gha bhukweli.”
42 Kuleyondawo abanengi bakholwa kuJesu.
Bhanu bhingi bhakamwamini Yesu apu.
