< UMakho 12 >
1 Wasekhuluma kubo ngemizekeliso wathi, “Indoda yahlanyela isivini. Yakha umduli yasihonqolozela, yemba igodi lesihluzo yasisakha umphotshongo wesilindo. Yasiqhatshisa isivini kubalimi abathile yona yasuka yathatha uhambo.
Kisha Yesu akayanda kubhafundisya kwa mifano. Akajobha, “Munu apandili n'gonda ghwa mizabibu, akalisyongosela bhuzio, na akagima lilenda lya kusindika mvinyo. Akajenga mnara ni kisha akalipangisya n'gonda ghwa mizabibu kwa bhakulima bha mizabibu. Kisha asafiri safari jha patali.
2 Ngesikhathi sokuvuna yathuma isisebenzi kubaqhatshi besivini ukuthi siyothatha ingxenye yezithelo zesivuno.
Wakati bho bhufikili, an'tumili n'tumishi kwa bhakulima bha mizabibu kutola kuh'omela kwa bhene baadhi jha matunda gha n'gonda ghwa mizabibu.
3 Kodwa basidumela basitshaya basixotsha singaphathanga lutho.
Lakini bhan'kamuili, bhan'tobhili, ni kumb'enga bila kyokyoha.
4 Yathuma esinye isisebenzi kubo; leyondoda bayitshaya ekhanda bayiphatha kubi.
Akan'tuma kwa bhene kabhele n'tumishi jhongi, bhakan'jeruhi kumutu ni kun'ketela mambo gha soni.
5 Yaphinde yathuma esinye njalo isisebenzi, leso bahle basigongoda basibulala. Yathuma ezinye ezinengi; ezinye zazo bazitshaya, ezinye bazibulala.
Bado an'tumili jhongi, ni ojho mmonga bha n'kamili. Bhabhaketili bhangi bhingi mambo kama bhaghabhuene, bhakabhatobha ni bhangi kubhakhoma.
6 Kwasekusele oyedwa wokuthuma, indodana, ayeyithanda. Wayithuma ekucineni kwabo bonke esithi, ‘Bazayihlonipha indodana yami.’
Ajhe bado ni munu mmonga zaidi ghwa kun'tuma, mwana mpendwa. Ni muene ajhele ghwa mwishu jha atumibhu kwa bhene. Akajobha, “Bhibeta kun'heshimu mwanabhangu”.
7 Kodwa abaqhatshi besivini batshelana bathi, ‘Lo yindlalifa. Wozani, simbulale, ilifa libe ngelethu.’
Lakini bhapangaji bhajobhisene bhene kwa bhene, “Ojho ndo mrithi. Mhidayi, hebu na tun'komayi, ni bhurithi bhwibeta kujha bhwa tete.”
8 Ngakho bamthatha bambulala bamphosela ngaphandle kwesivini.
Bhakamvamila, bhakan'koma ni kum'tagha kwibhala mu n'gonda ghwa mizabibu.
9 Kambe kuyini azakwenza umnini wesivini na? Uzakuza afike ababulale labo baqhatshi besivini, isivini leso asinike abanye abalimi.
Henu, Je! ibeta kuketa kiki mmiliki ghwa n'gonda ghwa mizabibu? ibeta kuhida ni kubhajhangamisya bhakulima bha mizabibu kulikabidhi n'gonda ghwa mizabibu kwa bhangi.
10 Kalibalanga yini umbhalo lo othi: ‘Ilitshe elalahlwa ngabakhi seliyilona ilitshe lekhoneni;
Mbwajhilepi kusoma liandiku ele? “Liganga ambalyo bhajenzi bha libelili, limalikujha liganga lya palubhafu.
11 iNkosi ikwenzile lokhu, kuyamangalisa emehlweni ethu’?”
Ela lyahomili kwa Bwana na lya ajabu pamihu pa tete.”
12 Basebedinga iqinga lokumbopha ngoba babesazi ukuthi wayekhulume umzekeliso lowo eqonde bona. Kodwa besaba ixuku labantu; basebemtshiya bahamba.
Bhakalonda kunikamula Yesu, Lakini bhabhatilili makutano kwani bhamanyili kujha ajobhili mfuano bhola kwandabha jha bhene. Hivyo bhakandeka ni kubhoka.
13 Muva basebethumela abanye babaFarisi lamaHerodiya kuJesu ukuthi bambambe ngamazwi akhe.
Kisha bhakabhatuma Mafarisayo ni Maherodia ili kuntegha kwa malobhi.
14 Beza kuye bathi, “Mfundisi, siyakwazi ukuthi uyindoda eqotho. Kawuguqulwanga ngabantu ngoba kawulandeli ukuthi bangobani; kodwa ufundisa indlela kaNkulunkulu mayelana leqiniso. Kulungile yini ukuthela kuKhesari, kumbe hatshi?
Bho bhafikili, bhakan'jobhela, Mwalimu, tumanyili kujha ghwijali lepi maoni gha jhejhioha jhola na ghwilasya lepi bhupendulu kati jha bhanu. Ghwimanyisya njela jha K'yara mu bhukweli. Je! ndo haki kulepa kodi kwa Kaisari au la? Je! Twibhwesya kulepa au la?
15 Sithele yini kumbe hatshi?” Kodwa uJesu wayekubona ukuzenzisa kwabo, wathi, “Lizamelani ukungithiya na? Ake lingiphe idenari ngibone.”
Lakini Yesu amanyili bhunafiki bhwa bhene ni kubhajobhela, “Kwa ndajhakiki mkanijaribu? Munipelayi dinari nibhwesiajhi kujhilanga.”
16 Baluletha uhlamvu lolo, wasebabuza wathi, “Ngumfanekiso kabani lo? Lombhalo ngokabani?” Baphendula bathi, “NgokaKhesari.”
Bhakaleta jhimonga kwa Yesu, Akabhajobhela, “Je! ijhe sura jha niani ni maandishi ghaghajhele apa gha niani? Bhakajobha, “Kaisari.”
17 UJesu wasesithi kubo, “Phanini uKhesari okukaKhesari loNkulunkulu okungokukaNkulunkulu.” Bamangala kakhulu ngaye.
Yesu akabhajobhela, “Mumpelayi Kaisari fenu fya Kaisari ni K'yara fenu fya K'yara.” Bhakan'staajabu.
18 Kwasekusithi abaSadusi abathi kakukho ukuvuka kwabafileyo, beza kuye belombuzo.
Kisha Masadukayo, bhabhijobha bhujhelepi bhufufuo, bhakandotela. Bhakan'kota, bhakajobha,
19 Bathi, “Mfundisi, uMosi wasibhalela ukuthi nxa umfowabo wendoda angafa atshiye umfazi, kodwa bengelabantwana, leyondoda kayimthathe umfelokazi izalele umfowabo abantwana.
“Mwalimu, Musa atujhandikili kujha, 'Ndongo ghwa munu afuili ni kundeka n'dala munu kumbele kwa muene, lakini aleki lepi muana, munu ibetakun'tola n'dala ghwa ndongo munu, ni kwikabhela bhana kwandabha jha ndongo munu.'
20 Manje-ke, kwakulabafowabo abayisikhombisa. Owokuqala wathatha wasesifa engazalanga.
Kwajhele ni bhanandugu saba ghwa kwanza atolili n'dala ni kisha akafwa, alekili lepi bhana.
21 Owesibili wamthatha umfelokazi waphinda laye wafa engelamntwana. Kwabanjalo lakowesithathu.
Kisha ghwa pili an'tolili ni muene akafwa alekilepi bhana. Ni ghwa tatu jhajhe mebhu.
22 Iqiniso yikuthi kakho kubo bonke beyisikhombisa owaba labantwana. Ekucineni kwafa yena umfazi.
Ni ghwa saba afuili bila kuleka bhana. Mwishowe ni n'dala ni muene akafwa.
23 Ekuvukeni kwabafileyo uzakuba ngumkabani njengoba bonke boyisikhombisa babemthethe?”
Wakati ghwa bhufufuo, pabhibeta kufufuka kabhele He! ibeta kujha n'dala, ghwa niani? Kwani bhala bhanandugu bhoha saba bhajhele bhagosi munu.”
24 UJesu waphendula wathi, “Kalilahleki yini ngoba lingayazi imibhalo loba amandla kaNkulunkulu?
Yesu akabhajobhela, “Je! Ejhe sababu lepi kujha mu potosibhu, kwa ndabha mumanyilepi mayandiku wala ngofu sya K'yara?”
25 Nxa abafileyo sebevuka kabayikuthatha loba bende; bazakuba njengezingilosi ezulwini.
Wakati bhwa kufufuka kuh'omela kwa bhafu, bhibeta lepi kugega, wala kujhingila mu ndobho, bali bhibeta kujha kama malaika bha kumbinguni.
26 Mayelana lokuvuka kwabafileyo, kalibalanga yini encwadini kaMosi, emlandweni wesixuku esasibhebha umlilo ukuthi uNkulunkulu wathi kuye, ‘NginguNkulunkulu ka-Abhrahama, uNkulunkulu ka-Isaka loNkulunkulu kaJakhobe’?
Lakini, kuhusu bhafu bha bhifufulibhwa, Je! Mwasomilepi kuhomela kitabu kya Musa, Mu bahari sya kichaka, jinsi K'yara kyaajobhili ni kun'jobhela, 'Nene ndo K'yara ghwa Ibrahimu ni K'yara ghwa Isaka, ni K'yara ghwa Yakobo?'
27 KasuNkulunkulu wabafileyo, kodwa owabaphilayo. Lilahlekile kakhulu!”
Muene K'yara ghwa bhafulepi, bali bhabhajhe hai. Ndo bhukweli mupotuiki.”
28 Omunye wabafundisi bomthetho wafika wabezwa bephicana ngamazwi. Ngokubona ukuthi uJesu wayebaphe impendulo enhle, wabuza wathi, “Phakathi kwayo yonke imilayo yiwuphi oqakatheke okudlula yonke?”
Mmonga ghwa bhaandishi akahida ni kup'elekesya mazungumzo gha bhene; abhwene kujha Yesu abhajitili kinofu. “Je! amri jheleku jha muhimu zaidi kuliko senge?”
29 UJesu waphendula wathi, “Oqakatheke kakhulu yilo: ‘Zwana, wena Israyeli, iNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu, iNkosi yinye.
Yesu akan'jibu, “Jhaijhele jha muhimu ejhe, “Pelekayi, Israeli, Bwana K'yara ghwitu, Bwana ndo mmonga.
30 Thanda iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho ngenhliziyo yakho yonke langomphefumulo wakho wonke langengqondo yakho yonke langamandla akho wonke.’
Lazima un'ganayi Bwana K'yara ghwa jhobhi muoyo ghwa jhobhi bhuoha, kwa roho jha jhobhi, kwa luhala kwa jhobhi lwoha, ni kwa ngofu sya jhobhi syoha.'
31 Owesibili yilo: ‘Thanda umakhelwane wakho njengoba uzithanda.’Kawukho umlayo omkhulu kulale.”
Amri jha pili ejhe, 'Lazima un'ganayi jirani ghwa jhobhi kama kyaukigana ghwa jobhi.' Ijhelepi amri jhenge mbaha zaidi jha e'se.”
32 Indoda yaphendula yathi, “Utsho kuhle, mfundisi. Uqondile nxa usithi uNkulunkulu munye, kakho omunye ngaphandle kwakhe.
Mwandishi akajobha, “Knofu Mwalimu! Ujobhili bhukweli kujha K'yara ni mmonga, ni kujha ajhelepi jhongi zaidi jha muene.
33 Ukumthanda ngenhliziyo yakho yonke, ngokuzwisisa konke kwakho langamandla akho wonke, lokuthanda umakhelwane wakho njengoba uzithanda wena kuqakathekile kulayo yonke iminikelo yokutshiswa lemihlatshelo.”
Kun'gana muene kwa muoyo bhuoha, ni kwa bhufahamu bhuoha, ni kwa nghofu syoha nikun'gana jirani kama muene ni muhimu kuliko matoleo gha dhabihu sya kuteketesibhwa.”
34 UJesu wathi ebona ukuthi uphendule kuhle wathi kuye, “Kawukho khatshana kombuso kaNkulunkulu.” Kusukela kulesosikhathi kakusabanga khona owaba lesibindi sokumbuza eminye imibuzo.
Wakati Yesu abhuene ahomisi lijibu lya busara akan'jobhela, “Bhebhe ujhelepi patali ni bhufalme bhwa K'yara.” Baada jha hapo ajhelepi hata mmonga jhe athubutiuli kun'kota Yesu maswali ghoghoha.
35 Kwathi uJesu efundisa emagumeni ethempeli wabuza wathi, “Kungani abafundisi bomthetho besithi uKhristu uyindodana kaDavida na?
Ni Yesu akajibu bho ifundisya mu hekalu, akajobha, “Je! bhaandishi bhijobha bhuli kujha Kristu ndo mwana ghwa Daudi?
36 UDavida yena ngokwakhe ekhuluma ngoMoya oNgcwele wathi: ‘INkosi yathi eNkosini yami: “Hlala ngakwesokunene sami ngize ngibeke izitha zakho ngaphansi kwenyawo zakho.”’
Daudi muene mu Roho mtakatifu, ajobhili, 'Bwana ajobhili kwa Bwana ghwa nene tamayi mu kibhoko kya nene kya kuume, mpaka nibhabhombajhi maaduibha bhebhe kujha pasi pa magolo gha bhebhe.'
37 UDavida yena ngokwakhe umbiza athi ‘Nkosi.’ Pho-ke angaba yindodana yakhe kanjani?” Ixuku labantu elikhulu lamlalela ngokuthokoza.
Daudi muene akan'kuta Kristu, 'Bwana' Je! ni mwana ghoa Daudi kwa jinsi gani?” Ni likusanyiku libhala lyamp'elekisi kwa furaha.
38 Wathi elokhu efundisa, uJesu wathi, “Libananzelele abafundisi bomthetho. Bathanda ukuhambahamba becece ngezembatho ezinde eziphephezelayo lokube bebingelelwa emisikeni,
Mu mafundisho gha muene na Yesu ajobhili, “Mukitahadhariajhi ni bhaandishi, bhabhinoghela kugenda ni likanzu litali ni kusalimibhwa mu masoko.
39 futhi bathatha izihlalo eziphakemeyo emasinagogweni lezindawo zabahlonitshwa emadilini.
ni kutama mu fiti fya bha bhaha mu masinagogi ni mu sikukuu mu maeneo gha bhabhaha.
40 Bahuquluza izindlu zabafelokazi njalo bazibonakalisa ngokwenza imikhuleko emide. Abantu abanjalo bazajeziswa kabuhlungu.”
Pia bhilya nyumba sya bhajana bhis'oma maombi matali ili bhanu bha bhabhonayi. Bhanu abha bhibeta kupokela hukumu mbaha.”
41 UJesu wahlala phansi malungana lendawo yokunikela wakhangela inengi lifaka imali yalo esitsheni somnikelo ethempelini: Izikhulu ezinengi zazifaka imali ezwayo.
Kisha Yesu atumili pasi karibu ni lisanduku lya sadaka mugati mu lihekalu; ajhele ilola bhanu bha bhajhele bhisopa hela sya bhene mu kisanduku. Bhanu bhingi matajiri bhabhekili kiasi kibhaha kya pesa.
42 Kodwa kweza umfelokazi ongumyanga wafaka okuzinhlamvana kwethusi okubili okulingana lengxenyana yendibilitshi.
Kisha n'dala mjane maskini akahida ni kus'opa fipandi fibhele, thamani jha senti.
43 Esebizele kuye abafundi bakhe uJesu wathi kubo, “Ngilitshela iqiniso ukuthi umfelokazi lo ongumyanga ufake okunengi esitsheni somnikelo kulabo bonke.
Kisha akabhakuta bhanafunzi bha muene ni kubhajobhela, “Muaminiajhi nikabhajobhela, N'dala ojho mjane asopili kiasi kibhaha zaidi jha bhuoha ambabho bhamalikusopa lya sadaka.
44 Bona bonke baphe ngokwenotho yabo, kodwa yena, ebuyangeni bakhe ufake konke abelakho ukuthi kumphilise.”
Kwani bhoha bhasopili kutokana ni bhwingi bhwa mapato gha bhene. Lakini n'dala mjane ojho, kutokana ni umasikini bhwa muene, asopili hela jhioha ambajho alondekeghe kuitumila kwa maisha gha muene.”
