11 Yathuma enye inceku kodwa laleyo bayitshaya bayiphatha kabuhlungu, bayixotsha ingaphathanga lutho.
Wakatuma lubo umbi mubelesi mpawo bakamuuma, akumunyansya akmutanda lubo katakwe chintu.
12 Waphinda wathuma eyesithathu, bayilimaza bayiphosela phandle.
Wakatuma lubo uumbi watatu alimwi bakamuchisa, akumutandila aanze.
13 Umninisivini wasesithi, ‘Ngenzeni? Ngizathuma indodana yami engiyithandayo; mhlawumbe bazayihlonipha.’
Aboobo mwami wachilili wakati, 'Ndilachita biyeni? Ndilatuma mwandu wangu ngweyandisya amwi balikuyomulemeka.'

Pesi nibakamubona, bakaambula aakato kabo, kabati, 'Ooyu ngosili lukono. Atumujaye kuchitila kuti lukono lube lwesu.'
15 Basebeyikhuphela ngaphandle kwesivini, bayibulala. Kambe umninisivini uzabathini?
Bakamusowela kunze kwalubaya, mpawo bamujaya. Niinzi lino nchabatachite mwani muunda?
16 Uzakuza afike ababulale labo baqhatshi besivini, isivini leso asinike abanye abalimi.” Abantu bathi bekuzwa lokhu bathi, “Sengathi lokhu kungaze kwafa kwenzeka!”

28 Athi, “Mfundisi, uMosi wasibhalela ukuthi nxa umfowabo wendoda angafa atshiye umfazi, kodwa bengelabantwana, umfowabo kumele amngene umfelokazi ukuze azalele umfowabo abantwana.
bakamubuzya bati, “Muyisyi, Molzesi wakatulembela kuti na mukulana wamwaalumi wafwa, kali walikwete, pesi katakwe mwana, ooyo mwanike weelede kukwata bana mukulana azyalile mukulana mwana.
29 Manje kwakulabafowabo abayisikhombisa. Owokuqala wathatha umfazi kodwa wafa engelamntwana.
Kwakali bananyina bali kmusanu ababili, alimwi wakusanguna wakakwata, mpawo wakafwa katakwe mwana pe,
30 Owesibili

31 njalo lowesithathu laye wamthatha, bonke boyisikhombisa benza njalo bafa bengatshiyanga bantwana.
Watatu wakanjila munda, aboobo boonse musanu ababili bakanjla mung'anda pesi boonse bakafwa taakwe wakasiya mwana pe.
32 Ekucineni umfazi laye wafa.
Musule wakazoofwa alakwe mwanakazi.
33 Pho-ke, ekuvukeni kwabafileyo uzakuba ngumkabani njengoba bonke boyisikhombisa babemthethe?”
Lino kububuke, uyooba mwanakazi wanu? Nkaambo boonse kabali musanu ababili bakali mukwete.”
Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Bana balombe banyika iino balakwata alimwi balapegwa mulukwatano. (aiōn g165)
35 Kodwa labo abazabe befanele ukuba lengxenye kulesosikhathi lasekuvukeni kwabafileyo kabazukuthatha loba bendiswe, (aiōn g165)
Pesi aabo bataka[jane bulemu bwakutambula kubuka kubafu taakwe nibatakakwate na kupegwa mulukwatano. (aiōn g165)
36 njalo kabasayikufa ngoba sebenjengezingilosi. Bangabantwana bakaNkulunkulu, ngoba bengabantwana bokuvuka kwabafileyo.
Tabakoyoofwa alimbi, nkaambo banooli bakozyania abangelo alimwi mbana ba Leza nkaambo mbana babubuke.
37 Kodwa emlandweni wesixuku esasibhebha umlilo, uMosi laye wakuveza ukuthi abafileyo bayavuka, ngoba ubiza uThixo ngokuthi ‘uNkulunkulu ka-Abhrahama, uNkulunkulu ka-Isaka, loNkulunkulu kaJakhobe.’
Pesi abalabo bafwide bazobusigwa, alakwe Mozesi wakatondeezya kubusena bwalusaka, awo nayita kuti Leza wa Abbulahamu a Leza wa Ayizeki a Leza wa Jakobo.
38 KasuNkulunkulu wabafileyo, kodwa owabaphilayo, ngoba kuye bonke bayaphila.”

Bamwi balembi bamulawu bakasandula bati, “Muyiisyi wasandula kabotu.”
40 Kasabanga khona owaba lesibindi sokumbuza eminye imibuzo.
Nkaambo taakwe nibakachilikuyanda kweezya kumubuzya lubo iimbi mibuzyo.
41 UJesu wasesithi kubo, “Kungani besithi uKhristu uyiNdodana kaDavida na?
Jesu wakatghji kulimbabo, “Baamba biyeni kuti Kkilisito mwana wa Davida?
42 UDavida yena ngokwakhe uyakufakaza eNcwadini yamaHubo uthi: ‘INkosi yathi eNkosini yami: “Hlala ngakwesokunene sami,
Nkaambo Davida lwakwe mu Bbjuku lya Ntembawuzyo waamba kuti, Mwami wakati ku Mwami wangu, 'Kkala kululyo lwangu,
43 ngize ngenze izitha zakho zibe yisinyathelo senyawo zakho.”’
mane ndikachite basinkondo nyokwe bakabe kunsi aamawulu aako'
44 UDavida umbiza athi ‘Nkosi.’ Pho angaba yindodana yakhe njani?”
Aboobo Davida wiita Kkilisito kuti 'Mwami', mpo mwana wa Davida biyeni?”
45 Kwathi bonke abantu besalalele, uJesu wathi kubafundi bakhe,
Kabamvwide bantu boonse wakati kulibasikwiiya bakwe,
46 “Limukani abafundisi bomthetho. Bathanda ukuhambahamba becece ngezembatho ezinde eziphephezelayo njalo bathanda ukubingelelwa emisikeni, futhi bathatha izihlalo eziphakemeyo emasinagogweni lezindawo zabahlonitshwa emadilini.

47 Bahuquluza izindlu zabafelokazi njalo bazibonakalisa ngokwenza imikhuleko emide. Abantu abanjalo bazajeziswa kabuhlungu.”
Balatola maanda aabamukabafu, akweeneena kumchita nkombyo ndamfu. Aba bayotambula kunyonyoonwa kupati.”
