UMathewu 24
1 UJesu wathi esuka ethempelini esehamba abafundi bakhe beza kuye bathi kake ananzelele izakhiwo zalo.
anantaraṁ yīśu ryadā mandirād bahi rgacchati, tadānīṁ śiṣyāstaṁ mandiranirmmāṇaṁ darśayitumāgatāḥ|
2 Wathi, “Liyazibona na zonke lezizinto? Ngilitshela iqiniso ukuthi akulalitshe lapha elizasala liphezu kwelinye; wonke azabhidlizwa.”
tato yīśustānuvāca, yūyaṁ kimetāni na paśyatha? yuṣmānahaṁ satyaṁ vadāmi, etannicayanasya pāṣāṇaikamapyanyapāṣāṇepari na sthāsyati sarvvāṇi bhūmisāt kāriṣyante|
3 Kwathi uJesu ehlezi eNtabeni yama-Oliva abafundi bakhe beza kuye ngasese bathi, “Sitshele, kuzakwenzakala nini lokhu na, njalo kuzakuba lesibonakaliso bani sokuza kwakho lokuphela kwesikhathi na?” (aiōn g165)
anantaraṁ tasmin jaitunaparvvatopari samupaviṣṭe śiṣyāstasya samīpamāgatya guptaṁ papracchuḥ, etā ghaṭanāḥ kadā bhaviṣyanti? bhavata āgamanasya yugāntasya ca kiṁ lakṣma? tadasmān vadatu| (aiōn g165)
4 UJesu waphendula wathi, “Qaphelani ukuze lingakhohliswa muntu.
tadānīṁ yīśustānavocat, avadhadvvaṁ, kopi yuṣmān na bhramayet|
5 Ngoba abanengi bazakuza ngebizo lami besithi, ‘NginguKhristu,’ bakhohlise abanengi.
bahavo mama nāma gṛhlanta āgamiṣyanti, khrīṣṭo'hameveti vācaṁ vadanto bahūn bhramayiṣyanti|
6 Lizakuzwa ngezimpi lamahungahunga azo, kodwa lingaze lethuka. Izinto ezinjalo zizakwenzeka, kodwa ukucina kulokhu kuseza.
yūyañca saṁgrāmasya raṇasya cāḍambaraṁ śroṣyatha, avadhadvvaṁ tena cañcalā mā bhavata, etānyavaśyaṁ ghaṭiṣyante, kintu tadā yugānto nahi|
7 Isizwe sizavukela isizwe, lombuso uvukele umbuso. Kuzakuba lendlala lokuzamazama komhlaba ezindaweni ezitshiyeneyo.
aparaṁ deśasya vipakṣo deśo rājyasya vipakṣo rājyaṁ bhaviṣyati, sthāne sthāne ca durbhikṣaṁ mahāmārī bhūkampaśca bhaviṣyanti,
8 Konke lokhu kuyikuqalisa kobuhlungu bokuhelelwa.
etāni duḥkhopakramāḥ|
9 Lapho lizanikelwa ukuba lihlutshwe njalo libulawe, futhi lizazondwa yizizwe zonke ngenxa yami.
tadānīṁ lokā duḥkhaṁ bhojayituṁ yuṣmān parakareṣu samarpayiṣyanti haniṣyanti ca, tathā mama nāmakāraṇād yūyaṁ sarvvadeśīyamanujānāṁ samīpe ghṛṇārhā bhaviṣyatha|
10 Ngalesosikhathi abanengi bazadela ukukholwa banikelane njalo bazondane,
bahuṣu vighnaṁ prāptavatsu parasparam ṛtīyāṁ kṛtavatsu ca eko'paraṁ parakareṣu samarpayiṣyati|
11 kuvele abaphrofethi bamanga abanengi abazakhohlisa abantu abanengi.
tathā bahavo mṛṣābhaviṣyadvādina upasthāya bahūn bhramayiṣyanti|
12 Ngenxa yokwanda kobubi, uthando lwabanengi luzaphola,
duṣkarmmaṇāṁ bāhulyāñca bahūnāṁ prema śītalaṁ bhaviṣyati|
13 kodwa lowo oma aqine kuze kube sekupheleni uzasindiswa.
kintu yaḥ kaścit śeṣaṁ yāvad dhairyyamāśrayate, saeva paritrāyiṣyate|
14 Njalo lelivangeli lombuso lizatshunyayelwa kuwo wonke umhlaba njengobufakazi kuzozonke izizwe, besekufika ukuphela.
aparaṁ sarvvadeśīyalokān pratimākṣī bhavituṁ rājasya śubhasamācāraḥ sarvvajagati pracāriṣyate, etādṛśi sati yugānta upasthāsyati|
15 Nxa libona kumi endaweni engcwele ‘amanyala aletha incithakalo,’okwakhulunywa ngomphrofethi uDanyeli, ofundayo kezwisise.
ato yat sarvvanāśakṛdghṛṇārhaṁ vastu dāniyelbhaviṣyadvadinā proktaṁ tad yadā puṇyasthāne sthāpitaṁ drakṣyatha, (yaḥ paṭhati, sa budhyatāṁ)
16 Lapho-ke akuthi labo abaseJudiya babalekele ezintabeni.
tadānīṁ ye yihūdīyadeśe tiṣṭhanti, te parvvateṣu palāyantāṁ|
17 Akungabikhona osophahleni lwendlu ozakwehla phansi ukuyathatha ulutho endlini.
yaḥ kaścid gṛhapṛṣṭhe tiṣṭhati, sa gṛhāt kimapi vastvānetum adhe nāvarohet|
18 Lowo osemasimini kangabuyeli ngekhaya ukuyathatha ijazi lakhe.
yaśca kṣetre tiṣṭhati, sopi vastramānetuṁ parāvṛtya na yāyāt|
19 Yeka ubulukhuni obuzakuba khona ngalezonsuku kwabesifazane abakhulelweyo labangabadlezane!
tadānīṁ garbhiṇīstanyapāyayitrīṇāṁ durgati rbhaviṣyati|
20 Khulekelani ukuba ukuphaphatheka kwenu kungabi sebusika loba ngeSabatha.
ato yaṣmākaṁ palāyanaṁ śītakāle viśrāmavāre vā yanna bhavet, tadarthaṁ prārthayadhvam|
21 Ngoba ngalesosikhathi kuzakuba lokuhlupheka okukhulu, okungazange kube khona kulokhu kwadabuka umhlaba kuze kube manje, njalo kakusoze kube khona futhi.
ā jagadārambhād etatkālaparyyanantaṁ yādṛśaḥ kadāpi nābhavat na ca bhaviṣyati tādṛśo mahākleśastadānīm upasthāsyati|
22 Aluba lezinsuku bezingaphungulwanga, kakho obezaphepha, kodwa ngenxa yabakhethiweyo lezinsuku zizaphungulwa.
tasya kleśasya samayo yadi hsvo na kriyeta, tarhi kasyāpi prāṇino rakṣaṇaṁ bhavituṁ na śaknuyāt, kintu manonītamanujānāṁ kṛte sa kālo hsvīkariṣyate|
23 Nxa ngalesosikhathi omunye esithi kini, ‘Khangela, nangu uKhristu!’ loba ‘Ulaphaya!’ lingakukholwa lokho.
aparañca paśyata, khrīṣṭo'tra vidyate, vā tatra vidyate, tadānīṁ yadī kaścid yuṣmāna iti vākyaṁ vadati, tathāpi tat na pratīt|
24 Ngoba oKhristu bamanga labaphrofethi bamanga bazavela benze izibonakaliso lezimangaliso ezinkulu ukukhohlisa kanye labakhethiweyo, nxa lokho kungenzeka.
yato bhāktakhrīṣṭā bhāktabhaviṣyadvādinaśca upasthāya yāni mahanti lakṣmāṇi citrakarmmāṇi ca prakāśayiṣyanti, tai ryadi sambhavet tarhi manonītamānavā api bhrāmiṣyante|
25 Zwanini, sengihle ngalitshela mandulo kwesikhathi.
paśyata, ghaṭanātaḥ pūrvvaṁ yuṣmān vārttām avādiṣam|
26 Ngakho-ke, nxa umuntu elitshela esithi, ‘Nanguyana, laphayana egangeni,’ lingayi khona loba athi, ‘Nangu lapha ezindlini ezingaphakathi,’ lingaze lakukholwa lokho.
ataḥ paśyata, sa prāntare vidyata iti vākye kenacit kathitepi bahi rmā gacchata, vā paśyata, sontaḥpure vidyate, etadvākya uktepi mā pratīta|
27 Ngoba njengombane osuka empumalanga uhle ubonakale lasentshonalanga, kuzakuba njalo ukufika kweNdodana yoMuntu.
yato yathā vidyut pūrvvadiśo nirgatya paścimadiśaṁ yāvat prakāśate, tathā mānuṣaputrasyāpyāgamanaṁ bhaviṣyati|
28 Lapho okulesidumbu khona kulapho amanqe abuthana khona.
yatra śavastiṣṭhati, tatreva gṛdhrā milanti|
29 Masinyane ngemva kokuhlupheka kwalezonsuku, ‘ilanga lizafiphala lenyanga kayiyikukhanya; izinkanyezi zizakuwa esibhakabhakeni, izisekelo zasezulwini zizazanyazanyiswa.’
aparaṁ tasya kleśasamayasyāvyavahitaparatra sūryyasya tejo lopsyate, candramā jyosnāṁ na kariṣyati, nabhaso nakṣatrāṇi patiṣyanti, gagaṇīyā grahāśca vicaliṣyanti|
30 Kulesosikhathi isibonakaliso seNdodana yoMuntu sizavela emkhathini, kuthi zonke izizwe zomhlaba zilile. Zizabona iNdodana yoMuntu isiza ngamayezi esibhakabhakeni, ilamandla lobukhosi obukhulu.
tadānīm ākāśamadhye manujasutasya lakṣma darśiṣyate, tato nijaparākrameṇa mahātejasā ca meghārūḍhaṁ manujasutaṁ nabhasāgacchantaṁ vilokya pṛthivyāḥ sarvvavaṁśīyā vilapiṣyanti|
31 Njalo izathumela izingilosi zayo zitshaya icilongo ngomsindo omkhulu, beseziqoqa abakhethiweyo bayo emagumbini womane omhlaba, kusukela ngapha kwamazulu kusiya ngale kwawo.
tadānīṁ sa mahāśabdāyamānatūryyā vādakān nijadūtān praheṣyati, te vyomna ekasīmāto'parasīmāṁ yāvat caturdiśastasya manonītajanān ānīya melayiṣyanti|
32 Manje-ke, fundani lesisifundo esihlahleni somkhiwa: Amahlumela aso angaqalisa ukuba buthakathaka lamahlamvu aso ahlume, lihle lazi ukuthi ihlobo selisondele.
uḍumbarapādapasya dṛṣṭāntaṁ śikṣadhvaṁ; yadā tasya navīnāḥ śākhā jāyante, pallavādiśca nirgacchati, tadā nidāghakālaḥ savidho bhavatīti yūyaṁ jānītha;
33 Kanjalo-ke, nxa lingabona zonke lezizinto, lazi ukuthi sekusondele, khonapho emnyango.
tadvad etā ghaṭanā dṛṣṭvā sa samayo dvāra upāsthād iti jānīta|
34 Ngilitshela iqiniso, lesisizukulwane kasiyikudlula zize zenzakale zonke lezizinto.
yuṣmānahaṁ tathyaṁ vadāmi, idānīntanajanānāṁ gamanāt pūrvvameva tāni sarvvāṇi ghaṭiṣyante|
35 Izulu lomhlaba kuzedlula, kodwa amazwi ami kawayikwedlula lanini.”
nabhomedinyo rluptayorapi mama vāk kadāpi na lopsyate|
36 “Kodwa kakho olwaziyo lolosuku lehola, loba izingilosi zasezulwini, kumbe iNdodana, kodwa uBaba kuphela.
aparaṁ mama tātaṁ vinā mānuṣaḥ svargastho dūto vā kopi taddinaṁ taddaṇḍañca na jñāpayati|
37 Njengoba kwakunjalo ensukwini zikaNowa, kuzakuba njalo ekufikeni kweNdodana yoMuntu.
aparaṁ nohe vidyamāne yādṛśamabhavat tādṛśaṁ manujasutasyāgamanakālepi bhaviṣyati|
38 Ngoba ensukwini ezandulela uzamcolo, abantu babesidla, benatha, bethatha njalo besenda, kwaze kwafika usuku uNowa angena ngalo emkhunjini;
phalato jalāplāvanāt pūrvvaṁ yaddinaṁ yāvat nohaḥ potaṁ nārohat, tāvatkālaṁ yathā manuṣyā bhojane pāne vivahane vivāhane ca pravṛttā āsan;
39 futhi babengazi lutho ngalokho okwakuzakwenzeka uzamcolo waze wafika wabatshabalalisa. Kuzakuba njalo ekufikeni kweNdodana yoMuntu.
aparam āplāvitoyamāgatya yāvat sakalamanujān plāvayitvā nānayat, tāvat te yathā na vidāmāsuḥ, tathā manujasutāgamanepi bhaviṣyati|
40 Kuzakuthi amadoda emabili esensimini, eyodwa izathathwa, eyinye isale.
tadā kṣetrasthitayordvayoreko dhāriṣyate, aparastyājiṣyate|
41 Kuzakuthi abesifazane bebabili bechola ngembokodo, oyedwa uzathathwa omunye asale.
tathā peṣaṇyā piṁṣatyorubhayo ryoṣitorekā dhāriṣyate'parā tyājiṣyate|
42 Ngakho, lindani ngoba kalikwazi ukuthi iNkosi yenu izafika ngaluphi usuku.
yuṣmākaṁ prabhuḥ kasmin daṇḍa āgamiṣyati, tad yuṣmābhi rnāvagamyate, tasmāt jāgrataḥ santastiṣṭhata|
43 Kodwa zwisisani lokhu: Kube umninindlu wayekwazile ukuthi isela lizafika ngasiphi isikhathi sobusuku ngabe walinda kaze avumela ukuthi indlu yakhe igqekezwe.
kutra yāme stena āgamiṣyatīti ced gṛhastho jñātum aśakṣyat, tarhi jāgaritvā taṁ sandhiṁ karttitum avārayiṣyat tad jānīta|
44 Ngakho lani hlalani lilindile, ngoba iNdodana yoMuntu izafika ngesikhathi leso elizabe lingayikhumbuleli sona.
yuṣmābhiravadhīyatāṁ, yato yuṣmābhi ryatra na budhyate, tatraiva daṇḍe manujasuta āyāsyati|
45 Ngubani kambe oyinceku ethembekileyo lehlakaniphileyo umninimuzi ayibeke esikhundleni sokukhangela izisebenzi zalapha ekhaya ukuthi azinike ukudla kwazo ngesikhathi esifaneleyo?
prabhu rnijaparivārān yathākālaṁ bhojayituṁ yaṁ dāsam adhyakṣīkṛtya sthāpayati, tādṛśo viśvāsyo dhīmān dāsaḥ kaḥ?
46 Kuzakuba kuhle kuleyo nceku inkosi ezayifica isenza njalo ekuphendukeni kwayo.
prabhurāgatya yaṁ dāsaṁ tathācarantaṁ vīkṣate, saeva dhanyaḥ|
47 Ngilitshela iqiniso, izakumbeka ukuthi aphathe yonke impahla yayo.
yuṣmānahaṁ satyaṁ vadāmi, sa taṁ nijasarvvasvasyādhipaṁ kariṣyati|
48 Kodwa cabanga mhlawumbe inceku leyo ikhohlakele njalo ingazitshela ithi, ‘Inkosi yami isesekhatshana ukubuya,’
kintu prabhurāgantuṁ vilambata iti manasi cintayitvā yo duṣṭo dāso
49 ibisiqalisa ukutshaya ezinye izinceku njalo lokudla inatha lezidakwa.
'paradāsān praharttuṁ mattānāṁ saṅge bhoktuṁ pātuñca pravarttate,
50 Inkosi yaleyonceku izabuya ngosuku engacatshangelwa khona langesikhathi inceku engasaziyo.
sa dāso yadā nāpekṣate, yañca daṇḍaṁ na jānāti, tatkālaeva tatprabhurupasthāsyati|
51 Izayiqumaquma, iyiphe indawo kanye labazenzisi, lapho okuzakuba khona ukukhala lokugedla kwamazinyo.”
tadā taṁ daṇḍayitvā yatra sthāne rodanaṁ dantagharṣaṇañcāsāte, tatra kapaṭibhiḥ sākaṁ taddaśāṁ nirūpayiṣyati|
