ULukha 14
1 Ngelinye iSabatha uJesu wayakudla endlini yomFarisi owayedume kakhulu, babemkhangele kakhulu.
Gbe ɖeka le Dzudzɔgbe dzi, Yesu yi nuɖuƒe le Farisitɔwo ƒe amegã aɖe ƒe aƒe me, eye wonɔ ŋku lém ɖe eŋu vevie.
2 Phambi kwakhe khonapho kwakulendoda eyayilesifo sikambizankulu, esivuvukisa izitho.
Afi ma ŋutsu aɖe si nɔ tetedɔ lém la dze ŋgɔe.
3 UJesu wasebuza abaFarisi lezazi zomthetho wathi, “Kusemthethweni yini ukusilisa ngosuku lweSabatha kumbe hatshi?”
Ke Yesu bia Farisitɔ kple senyala siwo nɔ tsitre ɖe afi ma be, “Ele se nu be woada gbe le ame ŋu le Dzudzɔgbe ŋkekea dzia?”
4 Kodwa bathula. Ngakho waseyibamba indoda leyo wayisilisa wathi kayihambe.
Womeɖo biabia la ŋu nɛ o, ale Yesu lé dɔnɔa ƒe alɔnu, eye wòda gbe le eŋu. Emegbe la, eɖe mɔ nɛ wòdzo.
5 Wasebabuza wathi, “Nxa omunye wenu elendodana loba inkabi yakhe ewele emgodini ngeSabatha, kayikuphanga ayikhuphe masinyane na?”
Yesu gatrɔ ɖe ameawo ŋu bia wo be, “Mia dometɔ kae mewɔa dɔ le Dzudzɔgbe ŋkeke dzi o. Nenye be via alo eƒe nyi ge dze do me le Dzudzɔgbe ŋkekea dzi ɖe, meɖenɛ enumake oa?”
6 Baswela ukuthi bathini.
Ameawo mete ŋu ɖo biabia sia hã ŋu nɛ o.
7 Wananzelela ukuthi izethekeli zazikhetha izindawo eziqakathekileyo etafuleni wasebatshela umzekeliso wathi:
Yesu kpɔ be ame siwo katã wokpe be woava ɖu nua la tia kplɔ̃a ta. Le esia ta edo lo na wo gblɔ be,
8 “Nxa omunye ekunxusa edilini lomthimba, ungaze wathatha indawo eqakathekileyo funa kunxuswe umuntu omkhulu kulawe.
“Nenye be wokpe wò ɖe srɔ̃ɖekplɔ̃ ŋu la, mègaʋli be yeanɔ kplɔ̃ ta o, elabena ne ame ŋkuta aɖe si ŋu bubu le wu wò la va la,
9 Nxa kunjalo umalinxusa uzakuza athi kuwe, ‘Ake uxekele lo omunye isihlalo sakho.’ Uzabe usuyangekile ususiyahlala endaweni ephansi kakhulu.
ne edzɔ nenema la, ame si kpe wò la akplɔe va afi si nènɔ eye wòagblɔ na wò be, ‘Tso nàtsɔ wò nɔƒe na ame sia.’ Esia ana be ŋu akpe wò, eye nàyi aɖanɔ zikpui sia zikpui si le kplɔ̃a ƒe nuwuwu lɔƒo la dzi.
10 Kodwa nxa unxusiwe, hlala endaweni ephansi kakhulu ukuze kuthi nxa umakunxusa efika kuwe athi, ‘Mngane, sukuma uye endaweni engcono.’ Lapho-ke, uzabe uphakanyisiwe phambi kwabo bonke abanxuswe kanye lawe.
“Nu si boŋ wòle be nàwɔe nye esi, yi ɖanɔ teƒe aɖe le kplɔ̃a ƒe nuwuwu, eye ne ame si kpe wò la ŋutɔ kpɔ wò la, ava gblɔ na wò be, ‘Nɔvi, míegblẽ nɔƒe nyui aɖe ɖi na wò!’ Ale wòade bubu ŋuwò le ame siwo katã wòkpe la ŋkume.
11 Ngoba wonke umuntu oziphakamisayo uzakwehliswa, kuthi lowo ozehlisayo aphakanyiswe.”
Ame sia ame si dina be ye ŋutɔ yeade bubu ye ɖokui ŋu la, woabɔbɔe ɖe anyi, eye ame si abɔbɔ eɖokui la, woade bubu eŋu.”
12 UJesu wasesithi emanxuseni, “Nxa usenza idili emini loba kusihlwa unganxusi abangane bakho loba abafowenu kumbe izihlobo kumbe omakhelwane abanothileyo; ungenza njalo labo bangakunxusa, kuthi-ke lawe usuwenanisiwe.
Azɔ etrɔ ɖe ame si kpee ɖe kplɔ̃ ŋu la gbɔ gblɔ nɛ be, “Ne èɖo kplɔ̃ la, mègakpe xɔ̃wòwo, nɔviwòwo kple wò ƒometɔwo kple kesinɔtɔwo o. Elabena woawo hã ava kpe wò ɖe kplɔ̃ ŋu emegbe.
13 Kodwa nxa usenza idili, nxusa abayanga, izilima, izigoga, iziphofu,
Boŋ la, kpe ame dahewo, tekunɔwo, lãmetututɔwo kple ŋkunɔwo.
14 lapho uzabusiswa. Loba bengasoze bakwenanise lawe, uzakwenaniswa ekuvukeni kwabalungileyo.”
Ekema le ame dzɔdzɔewo ƒe tsitretsitsiŋkekea dzi la, Mawu ŋutɔ axe fe na wò be èwɔ dɔmenyo na ame siwo mate ŋu aɖo eteƒe na wò o.”
15 Kwathi omunye walabo abahlezi etafuleni laye esekuzwile lokhu, wathi kuJesu, “Ubusisiwe lowomuntu ozakudla edilini embusweni kaNkulunkulu.”
Esi ŋutsu aɖe si nɔ kplɔ̃a ŋu kple Yesu la se nya siawo la, egblɔ na Yesu be, “Woayra ame siwo aɖu abolo le mawufiaɖuƒe la me!”
16 UJesu waphendula wathi, “Umuntu othile wayesenza idili elikhulu ngakho wanxusa abantu abanengi.
Yesu ɖo eƒe nya la ŋu nɛ be, “Ŋutsu aɖe ɖo kplɔ̃ gã aɖe, eye wòkpe ame geɖewo.
17 Sekuyisikhathi sedili wathuma isisebenzi sakhe ukuyatshela ababenxusiwe ukuthi, ‘Wozani, konke sekulungile.’
Esi nu sia nu sɔ gbe vɔ be wɔnawo nadze egɔme la, edɔ eƒe subɔvi ɖe ame siwo wòkpe la gbɔ be wòaɖayɔ wo vɛ.
18 Kodwa bonke baqala ukuxolisa. Owokuqala wathi, ‘Ngisanda kuthenga isivande ngakho kusamele ngiyesibona. Ngicela ungixolisele.’
“Gake ame sia ame de asi taflatsedodo me esi subɔvi la yi. Ame ɖeka do taflatse be yeƒle anyigba aɖe eye yedi be yeayi aɖalé ŋku ɖe eme, eya ta yemate ŋu ava o.
19 Omunye wathi, ‘Khathesi nje ngisanda kuthenga izipani ezinhlanu zenkabi, ungifica ngivele ngisendleleni yokuyazihlola. Ngicela ungixolisele.’
“Bubu hã do taflatse be yeƒle nyitsu ewo be woawɔ dɔ le yeƒe agble me, eya ta yeyina wo do ge akpɔ.
20 Omunye njalo wathi, ‘Ngisanda kutshada nje khathesi ngakho angingeke ngize.’
“Ame bubu hã gado taflatse be nyitsɔ laa ko yeɖe srɔ̃, eya ta yemate ŋu agblẽ nyɔnu la ɖi ava o.
21 Inceku yabuya yakubika konke lokhu enkosini yayo. Inkosi yathukuthela yasilaya inceku yayo yathi, ‘Hamba khathesi, uye ezitaladini lemikotweni yedolobho umeme abayanga, abagogekileyo, iziphofu labaqhulayo.’
“Subɔvi la trɔ va gblɔ nya siwo ameawo gblɔ la na eƒe aƒetɔ. Dɔ me ve aƒetɔa ŋutɔ, eya ta edɔ eƒe subɔvi la wòyi dua ƒe ablɔwo dzi kple kpɔdomewo ɖayɔ nubialawo, tekunɔwo, lãmetututɔwo kple ŋkunɔwo va kplɔ̃a ŋui.
22 Inceku yathi, ‘Nkosi, lokho okulayileyo sokwenziwe kodwa indawo isesekhona.’
“Togbɔ be dɔla la wɔ esia hã la, egblɔ be, ‘Aƒetɔ wowɔ se si nède la dzi, gake nɔƒe gali.’
23 Inkosi yatshela inceku yayo yathi, ‘Hamba uye emigwaqweni lasezindleleni zemaphandleni uze labo ukuze indlu yami igcwale.
“Aƒetɔ la gagblɔ na subɔvia be, ‘Enyo, yi dua ƒe mɔ gãwo dzi kple kpɔwo godo, eye nàƒoe ɖe ame siwo katã nàkpɔ la nu be woava, be aƒea me nayɔ.
24 Ngiyalitshela kakho loyedwa walabo bantu ababenxusiwe ozalizwa idili lami.’”
Elabena mele egblɔm na mi be ame siwo katã mekpe gbã la ƒe ɖeke maɖɔ nu siwo meɖa na wo la ƒe ɖeke kpɔ o.’”
25 Abantu abanengi babehamba loJesu, wasephendukela kubo wathi:
Ame geɖe ŋutɔ nɔ Yesu yome nɔ yiyim. Ale wòtrɔ ɖe wo ŋu hegblɔ na wo be.
26 “Nxa umuntu esiza kimi, kodwa engeke azonda uyise lonina, umkakhe labantwana, abafowabo labodadewabo, kanye lempilo yakhe uqobo, ngeke abe ngumfundi wami.
“Ame si di be yeanɔ yonyeme la, ele nɛ be wòalɔ̃m wu fofoa, dadaa, srɔ̃a, viawo, nɔvia ŋutsu alo nɔvia nyɔnu. Ɛ̃, le nyateƒe me, ele nɛ be wòalɔ̃m wu eya ŋutɔ ƒe agbe gɔ̃ hã. Ne menye nenema o la, mate ŋu anye nye nusrɔ̃la o.
27 Lowo ongathwali isiphambano sakhe angilandele ngeke abe ngumfundi wami.
Ame si matsɔ eƒe atitsoga akplɔm ɖo o la mate ŋu anye nye nusrɔ̃la o.
28 Akesithi omunye wenu afune ukwakha umphotshongo. Kambe kazukuqala ahlale phansi abalise indleko ukuze abone ingabe ulayo yini imali yokuwuqeda na?
“Ne ame aɖe be yeanɔ yonyeme la, ele be wòabu eŋuti kpɔ nyuie hafi. Ame kae aɖo be yeatu xɔ ke mawɔ akɔnta tso ga home si wòagblẽ la ŋu, eye wòakpɔe ɖa be ga si le ye si la ade xɔa tutu nu o mahã?
29 Ngoba engakha isisekelo, kodwa ehluleke ukusiqeda, wonke okubonayo uzamhleka,
Ne mewɔ nenema o, wòɖo xɔa ƒe gɔmeɖokpewo anyi, eye mete ŋu tui wu enu o la, ame siwo katã kpɔe la ade asi fewuɖuɖu le eŋu me.
30 esithi, ‘Indoda le yaqalisa ukwakha, kodwa yehluleka ukuqeda.’
Woaɖu fewu hã le eŋu be, ‘Mikpɔ ame ma ɖa! Eyae dze xɔ ma tutu gɔme, gake mete ŋu wu enu hafi ga vɔ le esi o.’
31 Kumbe sithi inkosi ilungisela ukuya empini isilwa lenye inkosi. Kayizukuqala ihlale phansi yini ihluzisise engqondweni ingabe yona ngamabutho ayo azinkulungwane ezilitshumi ingaqondana laleyo elezinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili na?
“Alo fia kae atso kpla ko ayi aʋa, ke mayɔ eƒe aɖaŋudelawo be woawɔ akɔnta le futɔwo ƒe agbɔsɔsɔ ŋu, akpɔe ɖa be yeƒe asrafo akpe ewo ate ŋu aɖu futɔwo tɔ akpe blaeve dzi hã o?
32 Nxa ingeyikuma, izathuma amanxusa kuleyana isesekude icele uxolo.
Nenye be wòkpɔe be yeƒe asrafowo mate ŋu aɖu dzi o la, adɔ ame ɖo ɖe futɔwo gbɔ be yeawɔ ŋutifafa kple wo hafi woava ɖo eƒe du gbɔ.
33 Ngaleyondlela, loba ngubani phakathi kwenu ongadeli konke alakho ngeke abe ngumfundi wami.
Ale ame aɖeke mate ŋu anye nye nusrɔ̃la o, negbe ɖe wònɔ anyi gbã, bu eƒe kesinɔnuwo katã ŋu, eye wògbe nu le wo gbɔ ɖe tanye hafi!
34 Itswayi lilungile kodwa lingalahlekelwa yibumunyu balo, lingavuselelwa kanjani na?
“Dze la, nu vevi ye, ke ne dze bu eƒe vivi la, ŋudɔwɔnu kae wòganye?
35 Kaliwulungelanga lomhlabathi loba inqumbi yomvundiso kodwa liyalahlwa. Lowo olendlebe zokuzwa, kezwe.”
Menyo na anyigba alo na aɖukpo dzi hã o; ɖeko woatsɔe aƒu gbe. “Ame si to senu li na la nesee.”
