UJohane 20
1 Kwathi ngolokuqala lweviki uMariya Magadalena wafika engcwabeni ekuseni kakhulu, kusesemnyama, wabona ilitshe lisusiwe engcwabeni.
Okwilabha kwo lusiku Leo kwamba lichalimo lisute, Mariamu Magdalena naja kufwa; nalola libhui litalio kufwa.
2 Ngakho wagijima weza kuSimoni Petro lakomunye umfundi uJesu ayemthanda, wathi kubo: Bayisusile iNkosi engcwabeni, njalo kasazi lapho abayibeke khona.
Kulwejo nabhilima muno kujenda ku Simoni Petro na ku uliya Omwiigisha oundi oyo aliga amwendele, mbe nabhabwila ati, “Bhamugege Lata bhugenyi mufwa, eswe chitakumenya eyo bhamuteye.”
3 Ngakho uPetro waphuma lomunye umfundi, bafika engcwabeni.
Neya Petro na uliya omwiigisibwa oundi nibhauluka nibhagenda, okuja kufwa.
4 Basebegijima bobabili kanyekanye; omunye umfundi wasegijima phambili ngesiqubu kuloPetro, wafika kuqala engcwabeni.
Bhona nibhabhilima ku bhumwi mbe oyo omwiigisibwa nabhilima muno nakila Petro nangua okukinga kufwa;
5 Kwathi ekhothama elunguza wabona amalembu acolekileyo endlelwe, kodwa kangenanga.
Nemelegulu neya nasungulila mufwa; nalola emyenda ja bhafuta jiteywe ao, nawe nalema okwingilamo.
6 USimoni Petro wasefika emlandela, wangena engcwabeni, wabona amalembu acolekileyo endlelwe,
Mbe Simoni Petro na wona nakinga nengila Munda ya ifwa nalola emyenda ja bhafuta jimamile aliya.
7 lelembu lobuso elalisekhanda lakhe, lingabekwanga lamalembu acolekileyo, kodwa lendluliwe lisendaweni yalo lodwa.
Ne chitambala chinu chaliga kumutwe gwae gwaliga gutamamile amwi nemyenda ja bhafuta nawe yaliga imamile kumbali gwenyele.
8 Ngakho wasengena laye omunye umfundi owayefike kuqala engcwabeni, wabona, wakholwa;
Niwo uliya omwiigisibwa oundi wona nengila munda ya ifwa; nalola nekilisha.
9 ngoba babengakaqedisisi umbhalo, ukuthi ubemele ukuvuka kwabafileyo.
kwo kubha okungila omwanya ogwo bhaliga bhachali kumenya amandiko ati kumwiile Yesu asuluke ku bhafuye.
10 Basebesuka futhi abafundi baya kubo.
Mbe abheigisibhwa nibheya nibhagenda mumisi jebwe.
11 Kodwa uMariya wema engcwabeni phandle ekhala; kwathi esakhala, wakhothama walunguza engcwabeni,
Nolwo kutyo, Mariamu aliga emeleguyu kufwa nalila, obwo aliga nagendelela okulila emeleguyu neya nalola mufwa.
12 wasebona ingilosi ezimbili zembethe ezimhlophe zihlezi, enye ingasekhanda, lenye ingasenyaweni, lapho isidumbu sikaJesu ebesilele khona.
Nalola bhamalaika bhabhili bho lususo lumwela bheyanjilile oumwi kumutwe oundi kumagulu awo Yesu aliga amamile.
13 Zona zasezisithi kuye: Mama, ukhalelani? Wathi kuzo: Ngoba bayithethe iNkosi yami, njalo kangazi lapho abayibeke khona.
Nabho nibhamusiga ati, “Mugasyawe kulwaki oulila?” Omwene nabhabwila ati, “Ni kwokubha bhamugegele Lata bhugenyi wani, nanye nitakumenya eyo bhamuteye,”
14 Kwathi esetshilo lezizinto watshibilika, wabona uJesu emi, kodwa wayengazi ukuthi nguJesu.
Ajile amala okwaika ejo nainduka namulola Yesu emeleguyu. Nawe atamumenyele ati oyo aliga Ali Yesu.
15 UJesu wathi kuye: Mama, ukhalelani? Udinga bani? Yena ecabanga ukuthi ngumphathi wesivande, wathi kuye: Nkosi, uba wena umsusile, ngitshele lapho ombeke khona, mina-ke ngizamthatha.
Nawe Yesu namubwila ati, “Mugasi, kulwaki oulila? Ouyenjaga?” Nawe omwene netogela ati niwe omwani wo mugunda namubwila ati, “Lata bhugenyi, alabha nawe omugegele, mbwila enu umuteye, anye nimugegeyo.”
16 UJesu wathi kuye: Mariya! Yena watshibilika wathi kuye: Raboni! okuyikuthi: Mfundisi.
Yesu namubwila ati, “Mariamu.” Nawe nainduka omwene namubwila Muchiaramu ati, “Raboni kunu Ni kwaika ati, “Omwiigisha.”
17 UJesu wathi kuye: Ungangibambi, ngoba kangikenyukeli kuBaba; kodwa yana kubafowethu, uthi kubo: Ngiyenyukela kuBaba loYihlo, lakuNkulunkulu wami loNkulunkulu wenu.
Yesu nabhabwila ati, “Utangwatako, kubha nichali kulinya kugenda ku Lata; nawe genda kubhana bhasu ubhabwile atinitakulinya kugenda ku Lata wani oyo emwe ona Ni Lata wemwe, Nyamuanga wemwe.”
18 UMariya Magadalena weza wababikela abafundi ukuthi uyibonile iNkosi, njalo imtshele lezizinto.
Mariamu Magdalena naja nabhabwila abheigisibwa ati, “Namulola Lata bhugenyi,” na kutyoamubwila emisango jinu.
19 Kwathi kusihlwa ngalolosuku, olokuqala lweviki, leminyango ivaliwe lapho abafundi ababehlangene khona, ngenxa yokwesaba amaJuda, uJesu wafika wema phakathi, wathi kubo: Ukuthula kakube kini.
Mbe yejile yabha kegolo, ku lusiku olwo, olusiku lwo kwamba olwo bwoyo, amegi galiga gegawe abheigisibwa ku lwokubhaya Abhayaudi, Yesu nabhemelegulumo nabhabwila ati, “Omulembe gubhe nemwe.”
20 Njalo esetshilo lokhu wabatshengisa izandla zakhe lohlangothi lwakhe. Ngakho abafundi bathokoza beyibona iNkosi.
Ejile amala okwaika kutyo nabhelesha amabhoko gaye no lubhafu lwaye. Niwo abheigisibwa bhae bhejile bhamulola Lata bhugenyi nibhakondelwa.
21 UJesu wasebuya esithi kubo: Ukuthula kakube kini; njengoba uBaba engithumile, lami ngiyalithuma.
Neya Yesu nabhabwila lindi, “Omulembe gubhe nemwe. lwa kutyo Lata antumile anye, ni kutyo anye enibhutuma emwe.”
22 Kwathi esetshilo lokhu waphephetha phezu kwabo wathi kubo: Yemukelani uMoya oNgcwele.
Yesu ejile amala okwaika kutyo nabhesisha omwika nabhabwila ati, Mulamile mwoyo mwelu.
23 Loba ngobani elithethelela izono zabo, bathethelelwe; loba ngobani elibamba ezabo, zibanjiwe.
Wona Wona mumusasilega ebhibhibhi, abhasasilwa; na bhaliya mulibhabhoyela bhalibhoyelwa.”
24 Kodwa uTomasi, omunye wabalitshumi lambili, othiwa nguDidimusi, wayengekho labo mhla uJesu efika.
Thomasi, oumwi wa bhaliya ekumi na bhabhili, oyo atogwaga bhalongo, atabhee na bheigisibwa bhejabho Yesu aoejile.
25 Ngakho abanye abafundi bathi kuye: Siyibonile iNkosi. Kodwa yena wathi kubo: Uba ngingaboni ezandleni zayo amanxeba ezipikili, njalo ngifake umunwe wami enxebeni lezipikili, njalo ngibeke izandla zami ehlangothini lwayo, kangisoze ngikholwe.
Bhaliya abheigisibwa abhandi nibhamubwila ati, “Chamulola Lata bhugenyi.” omwene nabhabwila ati, “Alabha nitabwene jikofu je misumali ku mabhoko gae nintako echala chani kukofu jae, nita no kubhoko kwani kulubhafu lwae, nitakwikilisha na katyali.”
26 Njalo emva kwensuku eziyisificaminwembili abafundi bakhe babephakathi futhi, loTomasi elabo. UJesu wafika, iminyango ivaliwe, wema phakathi wathi: Ukuthula kakube kini.
Jatulile siku munana abheigisibwa bhaliga muchiyumba lindi, na Thomaso aliga amwi nabho. Omwanya jinjigi jigawe Yesu nemelegulu agati yebwe. naika ati, “Omulembe guye amwi nemwe.”
27 Wasesithi kuTomasi: Letha umunwe wakho lapha, ubone izandla zami; njalo letha isandla sakho, usifake ehlangothini lwami; njalo ungabi ngongakholwayo, kodwa okholwayo.
Neya namubwila Tomaso ati, nulete echala chao na ulole amabhoko gani; nulete any amabhoko gao ugwate kulufafu lwani; Usinge kubha unu atekilisishe nawe unu ekilisishe.”
28 UTomasi wasephendula, wathi kuye: Nkosi yami loNkulunkulu wami!
Niwo Thomaso namusubya namubwila ati, “Lata bhugenyi wani na Nyamuanga wani.”
29 UJesu wathi kuye: Ngoba usungibonile, Tomasi, ukholiwe; babusisiwe abangabonanga, kanti bakholiwe.
Yesu nabhabwila ati, Kwo kubha wandola, nikwo wakola wekilisha. Bhana libhando bhanu abhekilisha, bhatalolele.”
30 Njalo uJesu wazenza lezinye izibonakaliso ezinengi phambi kwabafundi bakhe, ezingalotshwanga kulolugwalo.
Neya Yesu nakola ebhibhalikisho byafu imbele ya bheigisibwa, ebyo bhitandikilwe mu chitabho chinu.
31 Kodwa lezi zilotshiwe, ukuze likholwe ukuthi uJesu unguKristu iNdodana kaNkulunkulu, njalo ukuze lithi, likholwa, libe lempilo ebizweni lakhe.
Nawe bhinu byandikilwe koleleki mutule okwikilisha ati Yesu niwe Kristo, omwana wa Nyamuanga nakulwo kwikilisha mubhe no bhuanga kwisina lyae.
