< UMathewu 13 >

1 Ngalolosuku uJesu waphuma endlini wayahlala eceleni kwechibi.
Uluhiku nulanso u Yesu akahega kitalakwe akikie pampelo a luzi.
2 Amaxuku abantu aminyezelana kuye waze wangena esikepeni wahlala kuso, abantu bonke bona babemi okhunjini.
Milundo ukulu ukilingiila kuligitya nung'wenso, akingila mibini akikie, milundo wihi ukimika pa mpelo a luzi.
3 Wasebatshela izinto ezinengi esebenzisa imizekeliso, wathi, “Umlimi waphuma wayahlanyela inhlanyelo yakhe.
Sunga u Yesu akaligitya kwa mpyani, Goza, mutemeli aiwendile temela.
4 Kwathi eyihaza inhlanyelo, eyinye yawela endleleni, izinyoni zafika zayidobha yonke.
Naukutemela imbeu ing'wi ikagwa mumpelo mpelo anzila inyunyi ikahoela.
5 Eyinye yawela okhetheni lapho okwakungela mhlabathi owaneleyo. Yaphanga yamila ngoba umhlabathi wawungatshoni.
Ning'wi ikagwa migwe, singaikapata imahalu. Ikakaya kuheluka kunsoko mahalu aimakehu.
6 Kodwa kwathi ilanga seliphumile yahanguleka yabuna ngoba yayingelampande.
Ingigwa ilyoa nailatoroka ikasonswa nsoko aingila nga mili hangi ikuma.
7 Eyinye yawela phakathi kwameva, asuka akhula ayiminya inhlanyelo.
Imbeu ing'wi ikagwa mumija. Imiti nikite imiija ikalipa migula ikatunyiilya.
8 Eyinye inhlanyelo yawela emhlabathini omuhle lapho eyathela khona izithelo eziphindwe okungabalikhulu, kumbe okungamatshumi ayisithupha loba okungamatshumi amathathu ukudlula leyo eyayihlanyelwe.
Mbeu ing'wi ikagwa mumahalu ni maza, ikatuga mbeu, ning'wi ikakila igana ling'wi, ning'wi makumi mutandatu, ning'wi makumi atatu.
9 Lowo olendlebe kezwe.”
Nukete iakutwi ije.
10 Abafundi beza kuye bambuza bathi, “Kungani ukhuluma ebantwini ngemizekeliso na?”
Iamanyisigwa akwe akaza akamukolya niki nukendaligitya kukiila mpyani?
11 Waphendula wathi, “Ulwazi lwemfihlakalo yombuso wezulu luphiwe lina hatshi bona.
U Yesu akasukiilya akaila, lumbi nimpewe kulinga inkunku wa kigulu ianyu singa apewe.
12 Lowo olakho, uzaphiwa kwengezelelwe abesesiba lokunengi kakhulu. Lowo ongelakho, lalokho alakho uzakwemukwa.
Kululo uyu nutite ukangeeligwa hangi uyu numugila ukuhegeligwa kaniki nazutite.
13 Lokhu yikho okungenza ngikhulume kubo ngemizekeliso: Ngoba loba bekhangele kababoni; loba belalele kabezwa njalo kabaqedisisi.
Ingi kuligitya nienso kua mpyani ingi nsoko akuona, aleke kuona itai, ataizeazija aleke kija nukulinga.
14 Kubo isiphrofethi sika-Isaya siyagcwaliseka, esokuthi: ‘Lizahlala lisizwa kodwa lingaqedisisi; lizahlala libona kodwa lingabonisisi.
Uunyakidagu wang'wa Isaya wakondanila kitalao, nuuliye kija mukija singamkulinga kugoza mukugoza shamukuona.
15 Ngoba inhliziyo zalababantu sezaba lukhuni; kabasezwa ngezindlebe zabo njalo sebawavala amehlo abo. Funa babone ngamehlo abo, bezwe ngezindlebe zabo, baqedisise ngezinhliziyo zabo, baphenduke bese ngibasilisa.’
Inkolo ya antu awa ikoli mukiti, ikakukija, imiho ao akunikiwe, aleke kuona na miho ao, nukija kua kutwe ao, nukulinga kwa nkolo yao, kululo anga aiampilukile hangi anzeaguna.”
16 Kodwa abusisiwe amehlo enu ngoba ayabona lezindlebe zenu ziyezwa.
Kululo gwa imiho anyu akembetilwe, nsoko akuona, niakutwe anyu akija.
17 Ngoba ngilitshela iqiniso ukuthi abaphrofethi abanengi lamadoda alungileyo balangazela ukukubona lokhu elikubonayo kodwa kabakubonanga, lokuzwa lokhu elikuzwayo kodwa kabakuzwanga.
Tai kumuila, anyakidagu idu niaantu niatai akete insula akuona inkani izi nimukuiona, shaikahuma kuona, ailoilwe kija aya nimendija shaikija.
18 Lalelani-ke lizwe ukuthi utshoni umzekeliso womhlanyeli:
Ingi tegeeli impyani amutemeli.
19 Nxa umuntu esizwa ilizwi ngombuso kodwa engabambisisi, omubi uyeza ahwithe lokho obekuhlanyelwe enhliziyweni yakhe. Yiyo le inhlanyelo eyahlanyelwa endleleni.
Uyu nuija ulukani nulautemi wa kigulu ahite kulinga, hapo umubi wiza hola iko nikitemiwe munkolo akwe. Iye yiyi mbeu nitemewe munzila.
20 Inhlanyelo eyawela okhetheni ngumuntu olizwayo ilizwi aphange alamukele ngentokozo.
Uyu nutemewe migwe yuyu nuikaya kija nukusingiilya kua ulowa.
21 Kodwa ngenxa yokuthi kalampande, nxa okwesikhatshana kuphela. Nxa kufika uhlupho lokuhlukunyezwa ngenxa yelizwi uphanga akhubeke.
Iza akili mugila anga mili, wigimya matungo makehu. Anga hangwe ni nkani ni nkaku wikaya kugwa.
22 Inhlanyelo eyawela phakathi kwameva ngumuntu olizwayo ilizwi kodwa lisuke landelwe yizinhlupheko zale impilo lenkohliso yenotho, lingabe lisaba lezithelo. (aiōn g165)
Uyu nautemewe mumiti na mija yuyu nuwija ulukani, kunu akazutyatile makani umunkumbigulu akalutunyiilya ulukani lang'wi Tunda lakahita kuluga indya ninza. (aiōn g165)
23 Kodwa leyonhlanyelo eyawela emhlabathini ovundileyo ngumuntu olizwayo ilizwi alizwisise. Lo nguye othela izithelo ezinengi ngekhulu, ngamatshumi ayisithupha loba ngamatshumi amathathu okudlula lokho okwahlanyelwayo.”
Nautemewe mumahalu nimaza, yuyu nuija ulukani nukulija, nukululinga. Uyu yuyu nuituga indya, nukulongoleka kutuga kukila igana ling'wi ning'wi makumi atatu.”
24 UJesu wabatshela omunye umzekeliso wathi, “Umbuso wezulu unjengomuntu owahlanyela inhlanyelo enhle ensimini yakhe.
U Yesu akaapa mpyani ngiza. Akalunga, utemi wa kigulu wimpyanigwe numuntu nautemee imbeu mumugunda wakwe.
25 Kodwa kwathi ngesikhathi wonke umuntu elele, isitha sakhe seza sahlanyela ukhula phakathi kwengqoloyi, sahamba.
Iantu naiatindila umulugu akaza akatemela iapungu pakati a ngano sunga akalongola yakwe.
26 Kwathi ingqoloyi isikhahlele yabumba izikhwebu, ukhula lalo lwavela.
Ingano nakonda kupuma nukupumya indya yakwe, nia pungu akigela hangi.
27 Izinceku zomninisivini zeza kuye zathi, ‘Nkosi, kanti kawuhlanyelanga yini inhlanyelo enhle ensimini yakho na? Pho ukhula luvele ngaphi?’
Itumi amumugunda akaza akamukolya shautemee ne imbeu ni nza mumugunda wako? Latula ule gwa likite apungu?
28 Waphendula wathi, ‘Kwenziwe yisitha lokhu.’ Zambuza izinceku zathi, ‘Uyafuna yini ukuthi siyelusiphuna na?’
Akaila mulugu witumile iti. Eitumi ikamuila iti gwa utakila kende kumipe?
29 Waphendula wathi, ‘Hatshi, ngoba lizakuthi lisiphuna ukhula liqabuke selisiphuna amabele kanye lalo.
Umukola mugunda angalunge, aa imatungo nimukipa iapungu mukipa palung'wi ni ngano.
30 Kuyekeleni kukhule ndawonye kuze kube yisikhathi sokuvuna. Lapho-ke, ngizakuthi kubavuni, Qalani ngokuqoqa ukhula lilubophe izinyanda ukuba lutshiswe, beseliqoqa amabele liwalethe esiphaleni sami.’”
Maleki akule palung'wi sunga imatungo akuogola kuligitya kuagoli ipi iapungu mutunge mapanzi mapunzi mumasonse ingano milingiile misalanka lane.”
31 Wabatshela omunye umzekeliso wathi, “Umbuso wezulu ufana lentanga yemastadi eyathathwa ngenye indoda yayihlanyela ensimini yayo.
Hangi u Yesu akaapumilya mpyani ngiza akalunga, utemi wa kigulu wimpyani ni mbeu a haladali iyi nu muntu auhoile akatemela mumugunda wakwe.
32 Lanxa incinyane kulentanga yenhlanyelo zonke, kodwa ithi ingakhula ibe yisihlahla esikhulu kulazo zonke, izinyoni zezulu zibuye, zithole ukuphumula ezingatsheni zaso.”
Imbeu iyi tai niino kukila mbeu yihi ninino. Kululo ilungile ikulu kukila indya yihi niambustani, ukutula mti, kina ni nyuni iziza tula zenga niitie mumatambi akwe.”
33 Waphinda wabatshela omunye umzekeliso wathi, “Umbuso wezulu ufana lemvubelo eyathathwa ngowesifazane wayixubanisa lempuphu enengi, yabila yagcwala inhlama yonke.”
Akaaila mpyani ngiza hangi, “Utemi wa kigulu anga igai naihoilwe numusungu nukuhalinkanya ininoinino itatu nia utu mpaka witikiilye.
34 UJesu wakhuluma zonke lezizinto exukwini labantu ngemizekeliso; kazange akhulume lutho kubo engasebenzisanga umzekeliso.
Aya hii u Yesu akauila umilundo kukiila mpyani, inkani yihi aiwiiligitya kukiila mpyani.
35 Ngakho kwagcwaliseka okwakhulunywa ngomphrofethi ukuthi: “Ngizavula umlomo wami ngemizekeliso, ngizakutsho izinto ezifihliweyo selokhu kwadatshulwa umhlaba.”
Iki aitule kina iko naikakondigwe kuligitigwa kukiila anyakidagu kihuma kipika apo naulungile kulugula ikimilo kane kwa mpyani, kuligitya ihi ayo napikilwe kupuma ung'wando wa unkumbigulu.”
36 Wasesuka exukwini waya endlini. Abafundi bakhe beza kuye bathi, “Sichazele umzekeliso wokhula ensimini.”
Sunga u Yesu akauleka umilundo akalongola kitalakwe. Iamanyisigwa akue akamutyata akalunga, kutemanuilye impyani iyi naapungu mumugunda.”
37 Waphendula wathi, “Lowo owahlanyela inhlanyelo enhle yiNdodana yoMuntu.
U Yesu akasisha akalunga, Nuitemela imbeu ninza ingi ng'wana wang'wa Adamu.
38 Insimu ngumhlaba njalo inhlanyelo enhle imele abantu bombuso. Ukhula lungabantu bomubi
Umugunda unkumbigulu, ni mbeu ninza awa ana autemi. Iapungu ana ang'wa uyo numubi, nimbeu izi nuitemee mulugu.
39 njalo isitha esiluhlanyelayo nguSathane. Isivuno siyikuphela kwesikhathi njalo abavuni yizingilosi. (aiōn g165)
Nuogoli mpelu aunkumbigulu niaogoli ia malaika. (aiōn g165)
40 Njengalokhu ukhula lusitshunwa lutshiswe emlilweni, kuzakuba njalo ekupheleni kwesikhathi. (aiōn g165)
Anga iapungu niilingiilwa nukusonswa umoto. Iti uu izitula mpelu aunkumbigulu. (aiōn g165)
41 Indodana yoMuntu izathuma izingilosi zayo, zikhuphe konke okuyizikhubekiso embusweni wayo, labo bonke abenza ububi.
Ung'wana wang'wa Adamu ukualagiilya iamalaika akwe, hangi ukilingiila kupuma muutemi wakwe ni nkani yihi nailetekeye imilandu nawa ihi niituma uubi.
42 Zizabaphosela esihogweni somlilo ovuthayo okuzakuba khona ukukhala lokugedla kwamazinyo. (questioned)
Akuaguma ihi milungu la moto, kung'wanso kizeze kikoli kililo nikakusia na mino.
43 Lapho-ke, abalungileyo bazakhazimula njengelanga embusweni kaYise wabo. Lowo olendlebe, kezwe.”
Pang'wanso iantu niatai azizemili ginta anga ilyoa muutemi wang'wa tata wao. Uyu nukete iakutwe nije.
44 “Umbuso wezulu unjengenotho efihliweyo esivandeni. Kwathi indoda isiyitholile yayifihla njalo, kwathi ngoba iphakathi kokuthokoza, yahamba yayathengisa konke eyayilakho yayathenga lesosivande.
Uutemi wa kigulu wa hanga anga ikiuto nikipihilwe mumugunda. Umuntu akaona akakipiha mulumbili wakwe akalongola kugulya ihi nautite akaugule umugunda.
45 Njalo umbuso wezulu ufana lomthengi edinga amaphareli amahle.
Hangi uutemi wa kigulu wihanga anga umuntu numusuluja nuipenza insao.
46 Kwathi esefumene elinye elalilentengo ephezulu wahamba wayathengisa konke ayelakho walithenga.”
Matungo naiwamiona insao, akalongola akagulya ihi nautite, akamigula.
47 “Futhi umbuso wezulu ufana lomambule owehliselwa phansi echibini wagola zonke inhlobo zezinhlanzi.
Uutemi wa kigulu wili anga inyavu nikoli muluzi, ni liingiila kila ikintu.
48 Wathi usugcwele, abagoli bezinhlanzi bawudonsela okhunjini. Basebehlala phansi, baqoqela ezitsheni zonke inhlanzi ezinhle kodwa ezimbi bazilahla.
Naizula inyavu ikamuluta kumpelo. Sunga akikie pihi akiliingila imaintu nimaza muiseme, nishanganzinza ikagungwa kuli.
49 Lokhu yikho okuzakwenzakala ekupheleni kwesikhathi. Izingilosi zizakuza zehlukanise ababi kwabalungileyo, (aiōn g165)
Izizatula iti kumpolo ihi, aziza kumutemanula muantu niabi, kupuma muantu nia tai. (aiōn g165)
50 zibaphosele esihogweni somlilo ovuthayo, lapho okuzakuba khona lokukhala kanye lokugedla kwamazinyo.” (questioned)
Nukuaguma milungu la moto, kung'wanso izize ukoli uhungeelya wa kusiana mino.
51 UJesu wababuza wathi, “Selizizwisisile zonke lezizinto na?” Bathi, “Yebo.”
Malinga ne aya ihi? Iamanyisigwa ikalunga “Kalinga.”
52 Wathi kubo, “Ngakho wonke umfundisi womthetho osephenduke waba ngumfundi wombuso wezulu unjengomnini wendlu okhupha esiphaleni sakhe amagugu amatsha lamadala.”
Sunga u Yesu akaila, muika nkani wihi nuatula mumanyisigwa wa utemi wimpyani numukolo nyumba nuipumya ikiuto kwakwe nikamaintu ni nimapya naya nakali.
53 UJesu eseqedile imizekeliso le wasuka lapho wahamba.
Ikatula u Yesu naiwakondya kupumya impyani yihi, akahega kung'wanso.
54 Wafika edolobheni lakibo waqalisa ukufundisa abantu esinagogweni labo, bamangala. Babuza bathi, “Indoda le yayithatha ngaphi inhlakanipho le lamandla la ayisimangaliso kangaka?
Sunga u Yesu akapika mukisali kakwe, akutula amanyisa iantu mumatekeelo, ingi gwa ikakuilwa ikalunga, umuntu yu auhoe pi u hugu wuu nukuilwa uwu?
55 Kanti lo kayisiyo indodana yombazi na? Ibizo likanina kasuMariya na, labafowabo kakusiJakhobe, uJosefa, uSimoni loJudasi na?
Umuntu singa ng'wana wang'wa mutamula mbao? U Mariamu singa nyinya? Nianyandugu singa Yakobo, Yusufu, Simoni nu Yuda?
56 Odadewabo kabakho lapha kanye lathi na? Pho indoda le yazizuza ngaphi izinto zonke lezi?”
Nialuna akwe kuwatite apa pitaitu? Umuntu uyu umahoeepi aya hii?
57 Bakhubeka ngaye. Kodwa uJesu wathi kubo, “Umphrofethi kaladumo edolobheni lakibo lasendlini yakwabo.”
Akaatasha sunga u Yesu akaila, umunyakidagu shanga wiulya ikulyo kuleka kitalao nukihi nao.
58 Kasenzanga izimangaliso ezinengi khona ngenxa yokusilela kwabo ekukholweni.
Singa akahuma kituma ukuuilwa nuidu kunsoko aiagila anga uhuili nung'wenso.
