< UJohane 6 >
1 Emva kwalezizinto uJesu wasuka waya ngaphetsheya kolwandle lweGalili, lweTiberiyasi.
Hazimana inzi zintu, Jesu chayenda kuyimwi imbali ye wate lya Galileya, hape livali kusupiwa I wate lya Tiberiya.
2 Laselimlandela ixuku elikhulu, ngoba babebone izibonakaliso zakhe azenza kulabo abagulayo.
Vungi vwe chichava chivali kumwi chilire kakuli vava voni imakazo zavali kupanga kwavo vavali kulwala.
3 UJesu wasesenyukela entabeni, wahlala phansi khona labafundi bakhe.
Jesu cha yenda kwirundu mi uko abake kali hasi ni varutwana vakwe.
4 Iphasika, umkhosi wamaJuda, laselisondele.
(Hanu mukiti we Paseka, Mukiti wa Majunda, uvali kwina hafuhi.)
5 Kwathi uJesu ephakamisa amehlo, wasebona ixuku elikhulu lisiza kuye, wathi kuFiliphu: Sizathenga ngaphi izinkwa, ukuze laba badle?
Linu Jesu halola mwi wulu ni kuvona vantu vangi niva keza kwakwe, cha wambira Filipi, “Tuwola kuwula kuhi vuronto ili kuli ava vantu va wole kulya?”
6 Njalo watsho lokhu emhlola, ngoba yena wayekwazi azakwenza.
(Kono Jesu a vawambi ichi kulika Filipi, kakuli iye mwine ivali kwizi icho chavali kuswanera kupanga.)
7 UFiliphu wamphendula wathi: Izinkwa zabodenariyo abangamakhulu amabili zingebanele, ukuthi wonke ngamunye wabo azuze ingcosana.
Filipi cha mwi tava, “Miyanda yovere yamashereñi ovuroto kasa a wole kuwulira zumwi ni zumwi wavo nangati kakwa kanini.”
8 Omunye wabafundi bakhe, uAndreya umfowabo kaSimoni Petro, wathi kuye:
Zumwi wa valutwana vakwe, Adiriyasi, mukulwe wa Simoni Pita, chata kwa Jesu,
9 Kukhona umfanyana lapha, olezinkwa ezinhlanu zebhali lenhlanzana ezimbili; kodwa ziyini kwabanengi kangaka?
“Kwina muhwire wo muswisu hanu wina zikwa zeminwe ye yanza zo Vuroto ni nswi zo vere, kono chinzi ichi mukati ketu?”
10 Kodwa uJesu wathi: Hlalisani abantu phansi. Kwakukhona utshani obunengi kuleyondawo. Ngakho amadoda ahlala phansi inani lawo lalingaba zinkulungwane ezinhlanu.
Jesu chati, “Mwikalike vantu hansi.”( Hanu kuvena lyani liñgi mwe china chivaka, ) Cwale vakwame chive kala hansi, valikana lule na lule lwe minwe yeyanza ku mpalo.
11 UJesu wasezithatha izinkwa, esebongile wazinika abafundi, labafundi kulabo ababehlezi phansi; ngokunjalo lenhlanzana ngangokufuna kwabo.
Linu Jesu chahinda vuloto mi hamana kuha vuitumero, cha tambika kwavo vavali kwi kere, mi kuswana nikwi inswi, chovungi sina muvavali kusakira.
12 Bathi sebesuthi, wathi kubafundi bakhe: Buthani imvuthu eziseleyo, ukuze kungachitheki lutho.
Linu vantu havave kuti, cha wamba kuva lutwana vakwe, “Mukunganye vu fwafwali ni twa ngamoka twa shala, iri kuli kanji kuwaniki chi zova.”
13 Basebebutha, bagcwalisa izitsha ezilitshumi lambili ngemvuthu zezinkwa ezinhlanu zebhali, ezasalayo kulabo abadlayo.
Chale chiva tu kunganya ni kwizuza zitanda ze kumi ni tovere tufwafwali tuva zwi ha vuronto bwina palo ye minwe ye yanza ye; tu fwafwali tuva shali kwavo vavali.
14 Kwathi lababantu bebona isimangaliso asenzileyo uJesu, bathi: Ngeqiniso lo nguye umProfethi omele ukuza emhlabeni.
Linu, vantu hava vona ichi chisupo chava pangi, chiva wamba, “Uzu chovu niti muporofita yo swanera kukeza mwi nkanda.”
15 Kwathi uJesu esazi ukuthi bazakuza bambambe ngamandla, ukumbeka abe yinkosi, wabuyela futhi entabeni yena eyedwa.
Chale Jesu ha lemuha kuti chivavali kusaka kukeza ni kumukwata che nkani kuti vamupange mulena, cha zwengera yenke kuma Lundu.
16 Sekuhlwile, abafundi bakhe behlela elwandle,
Hachiyiza kuva chitengu, va lutwana vakwe chiva shetumukera kwi wate.
17 sebengenile emkhunjini, beza ngaphetsheya kolwandle ukuya eKapenawume. Kwasekumnyama, uJesu wayengafikanga kubo.
Chive chira muchikepe, mi vavali kuluta i wate kuya kwa Capenaume. Chikuvali kusiha cheyi nako, mi Jesu kena aveni kuka vola kale kuvali.
18 Lwaseluvuka ulwandle ngoba umoya olamandla wawuvunguza.
Imi i huho likolete livali kuhunga, mi iwate chili vali kutangite kulwa.
19 Sebegwedlile amastadiyu angaba ngamatshumi amabili lanhlanu kumbe amatshumi amathathu, babona uJesu ehamba phezu kolwandle, esondela emkhunjini; basebesethuka.
Hachi va zuhite chiuvaka chilikana makumi overe ni minwe ye yaza lyoke kamba makumi o tatwe muvule, chiva vona Jesu nakaya vuyenda he wulu lya wate ni kezite kumbali ni chikepe, mi vavali kutiyite.
20 Kodwa wathi kubo: Yimi, lingesabi.
Kono chati kuvali, “Njeme! Kanji mutiyi.”
21 Basebevuma ukumemukela emkhunjini; njalo wahle wafika umkhumbi elizweni ababesiya kilo.
Linu vavali kukusaka kumu longa muchi sepe, mi yahaho chisepe chicha kasika he rizo havavali kukaya.
22 Kusisa ixuku elalimi ngaphetsheya kolwandle, libona ukuthi kwakungela lamunye umkolo lapho ngaphandle kwalowo ababengene kuwo abafundi bakhe, lokuthi uJesu wayengangenanga emkolweni labafundi bakhe, kodwa abafundi bakhe babehambe bodwa,
Izuva lichilira, chinavungi chivali kuzimene kwishirya lye wate chiva vona kuti kena kuvena chimwi chikepe mbwita fera china choke, ni kuti Jesu kena ave chili mwateni ni varutwana vakwe kono kuti varutwana vakwe chivavali kuyendete vovona.
23 kodwa eminye imikolo evela eTiberiyasi yafika eduze lendawo lapho ababedle khona isinkwa, emva kokuthi iNkosi isibongile;
Niha kuva vulyo, kuvena amwi mato avali kukazwa kwa Tiberiasi hafuhi ni chivaka aho hava liri vuroto uvo Simwine hava litumeri.
24 ngakho ixuku selibonile ukuthi uJesu wayengekho lapho loba abafundi bakhe, bangena labo emikhunjini, bafika eKapenawume, bedinga uJesu.
Linu china vungi hachi lemuha kuti nangati Jesu kamba varutwana vakwe kena vavali kusikwina, cwale avo vene chiva chira mumato ni kuyenda kwa Capenaume kuka ngana Jesu.
25 Bathi sebemtholile ngaphetsheya kolwandle, bathi kuye: Rabi, ufike nini lapha?
Hachiva manite kumuwana kweyina imwi imbali ye wate, chiva cho kwali, “Rabbi, wakeza liri kunu?”
26 UJesu wabaphendula wathi: Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini: Liyangidinga, kungeyisikho ukuthi labona izibonakaliso, kodwa ngoba ladla izinkwa lasutha.
Jesu chave tava, ni kucho, “cho vuniti, niti, muni ngana, isiñi kuti muvavoni imakazo, kono ivaka lyokuti muvali vuroto vumwi bwe nkonko mi muve kuti.
27 Lingasebenzeli ukudla okuphelayo, kodwa ukudla okuhlala kuze kube yimpilo elaphakade, ezalinika khona iNdodana yomuntu; ngoba yena uNkulunkulu uYise umphawulile. (aiōnios )
Kanji muverekeri zilyo inzo zisinyeha, kono muverekere zilyo zikala inako kutwala kuvahalo vusa mani uvo Mwana o Muntu bwasa mihe, kwe Ireeza Isi ava viki iswayo hali.” (aiōnios )
28 Basebesithi kuye: Sizakwenzani, ukuze senze imisebenzi kaNkulunkulu?
Cwale chivati kwali, “Chizi chi tuswanera ku panga, iri kuli tuwole kupanga misevezi ye Ireeza?”
29 UJesu waphendula wathi kubo: Lo ngumsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, ukuze likholwe kulowo yena amthumileyo.
Jesu che tava ni kuta kuvali, “Uwu njo musevezi we Ireeza: kuti mu zumine ku yenke unzo yavaka tumi.”
30 Ngakho bathi kuye: Pho wena wenza isibonakaliso bani, ukuze sibone sikholwe kuwe? Usebenzani?
Chwale chiva ta kwali, “Chechihi chisupo cwale choso pange, iri kuli tuvone ni kuku zumina? Chinzi choto pange?
31 Obaba bethu badla imana enkangala, njengokulotshiweyo ukuthi: Wabanika isinkwa esivela ezulwini ukuthi badle.
Veshetu vavali maana mwi halaupa, sina hakuñoletwe,'Avavahi inkonko izwa kwi wuulu kulya.”
32 UJesu wasesithi kubo: Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini: UMozisi kalinikanga isinkwa esivela ezulwini; kodwa uBaba ulinika isinkwa soqobo esivela ezulwini.
Linu Jesu chave tava, “Chovu niti, niti, kena ivali Mushe yava mihi inkonko kuzwa mwi wuulu, kono ivali Tayo yo miha inkonko ye niti izwa kwi wulu.
33 Ngoba isinkwa sikaNkulunkulu singuye owehla evela ezulwini esinika impilo emhlabeni.
Kakuti inkonko ye Ireeza je china chi zwa kwiwulu ni kukeza hansi ni kwiza kuha vuhalo kwi nkanda.”
34 Basebesithi kuye: Nkosi, sinike lesosinkwa njalonjalo.
Cwale chiva wamba kwali, “Nfumwetu, utuhe iyi inkonko inako yonse.”
35 UJesu wasesithi kubo: Mina ngiyisinkwa sempilo; lowo oza kimi, kasoze alambe; lalowo okholwa kimi, kasoze ome lakanye.
Jesu cha wamba kuvali, “Jeme ni nkonko yo vuhalo; uzo yo keza kwangu kasane ka fwe inzala, mi uzo yo zumina mwangu kesane kafwe inyota.
36 Kodwa ngithe kini: Lani lingibonile, kodwa kalikholwa.
Kono ni vami wambiri chovu niti muvani voni, mi kamu zumini.
37 Bonke uBaba anginika bona bazakuza kimi; lozayo kimi angisoze ngimxotshele phandle.
Yense uzo Tayo waniha mwa keze kwangu, mi yense yo keza kwangu chovuniti kaseni muzindire hanze.
38 Ngoba ngehlile ezulwini, hatshi ukuthi ngenze intando yami, kodwa intando yalowo ongithumileyo.
Kakuti niva kezi hansi kukazwa kwi wulu, isiñi kwiza kupanga itato yangu, kono chasaka iye uzo yavaka ni tumi.
39 Lalokhu kuyintando kaBaba ongithumileyo, ukuze konke anginike khona, ngingalahlekelwa lutho kikho, kodwa ngikuvuse ngosuku lokucina.
Imi iyi nji tanto yakwe uzo yava kanitumi, kuti kanji ni zoverwa nangati yenke kwavo vonse vavanihi, kono kaniva vunse mwizuva lyama mani mani.
40 Lalokhu kuyintando yongithumileyo, ukuthi wonke obona iNdodana njalo akholwe kuyo, abe lempilo elaphakade, njalo mina ngizamvusa ngosuku lokucina. (aiōnios )
Kakuli iyi nje tanto ya Tayo, kuti yense yo vona Mwana ni kuzumina mwali mwave ni vuhalo vusa mani mi kanimu vunse mwi zuva lya ma mani-mani. (aiōnios )
41 Ngalokho amaJuda akhonona ngaye, ngoba wathi: Mina ngiyisinkwa esehla sivela ezulwini.
Cwale majunda chivatanga kukumbola kuamana naye kakuti avati, “Njeme ni nkonko iyo yaka zwa kwi wulu.”
42 Athi-ke: Lo kayisuye yini uJesu indodana kaJosefa, uyise lonina thina esibaziyo? Pho yena utsho njani, ukuthi: Ngehle ngivela ezulwini?
Chiva wamba, “Uzu kanjiyena Jesu mwana wa Josefa, uzo insi ni nyina tuve zi? Kwiza vule hape hanu kuti awambe, 'Nakazwa kwi wulu '?”
43 UJesu wasephendula wathi kuwo: Lingakhononi phakathi kwenu.
Jesu che tava ni kuvata, “Musiye kukumbola mukati kenu.
44 Kakho ongeza kimi, ngaphandle kokuthi uBaba ongithumileyo amdonse, njalo mina ngizamvusa ngosuku lokucina.
Kakwina zumwi yo wola kukeza kwangu mbwita Tayo yava kanitumi hamu chuza, mi kani muvunse mwi zuva lyama mani-mani.
45 Kulotshiwe kubaprofethiukuthi: Njalo bonke bazafundiswa nguNkulunkulu. Ngakho wonke ozwileyo ngoBaba wafunda, uyeza kimi.
Ku ñoletwe muma porofita, 'Yense karutiwe nji Ireeza. 'Yense yava zuwi ni kulituta kwa Tayo ukeza kwangu.
46 Kayisikho ukuthi ukhona obone uBaba, ngaphandle kwakhe ovela kuNkulunkulu, yena umbonile uBaba.
Kena kuti vonse vava voni Tayo, mbwita fera iye yokazwa kwe Ireeza- ava voni Tayo.
47 Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini: Okholwayo kimi, ulempilo elaphakade. (aiōnios )
Chovu niti, niti, iye yo zumina wina vahalo vusa mani. (aiōnios )
48 Mina ngiyisinkwa sempilo.
Jeme ni nkonko yo vuhalo.
49 Oyihlo badla imana enkangala, futhi bafa;
Veshenu vavali maana mwi halaupa, mi vava mani kufwa.
50 lesi yisinkwa esehla sivela ezulwini, ukuze umuntu adle okwaso angafi.
Iyi nje nkonko ikeza hansi kukazwa kwi wulu, iri kuli muntu awole kulya yimwi kuili ni kusa fwa.
51 Mina ngiyisinkwa esiphilayo, esehla sivela ezulwini; uba umuntu esidla lesisinkwa, uzaphila ephakadeni. Njalo lesinkwa mina engizasinika, siyinyama yami, mina engizayinikela impilo yomhlaba. (aiōn )
Jeme ni nkonko i hala iyo ikazwa kwi wulu. Haiva zumwi ulya kuili iyi nkonko, mwa hale kuya kuire. Inkonko iyo yete nihe inyama wangu kuvu halo vwe kanda.” (aiōn )
52 AmaJuda asephikisana esithi: Lo angasinika njani inyama yakhe siyidle?
Majunda chiva venga mukati kavo vene niku tanga kukanana, nivati, Kuwoleka vule kuti uzu mukwame atuhe inyama wakwe kuti tulye?'
53 Ngakho uJesu wathi kuwo: Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini: Ngaphandle kokuthi lidle inyama yeNdodana yomuntu linathe igazi layo, kalilampilo phakathi kwenu.
Cwale Jesu cha wamba kuvali, “Chovu niti, niti, kwanda yo kuti mulye inyama o Mwana o Muntu ni kunwa malaha akwe, kete muve ni vuhalo mwenu.
54 Odla inyama yami anathe igazi lami, ulempilo elaphakade, njalo mina ngizamvusa ngosuku lokucina. (aiōnios )
Yense yolya inyama wangu ni kunwa malaha angu wina vuhalo vusa mani, mi kani muvuse mwizuvalya mamanikizo. (aiōnios )
55 Ngoba inyama yami iyikudla oqotho, legazi lami lingokunathwayo oqotho.
Kakuti inyama yangu chilyo che niti, mi malaha angu chinwiwa che niti.
56 Odla inyama yami anathe igazi lami, uhlala kimi, lami kuye.
Iye yo lya inyama wangu ni kunwa malaha angu ushala mwangu, ni me mwali.
57 Njengalokhu uBaba ophilayo engithumile, lami ngiphila ngoBaba; ngakho ongidlayo, laye uzaphila ngami.
Sina Tayo yo hala havaka ni tumi, mi sina hani hala ivaka lya Tayo, cwale iye yonilya, mwahale naye ivaka lyangu.
58 Lesi yisinkwa esehla sivela ezulwini; akunjengaboyihlo abadla imana, sebafa; odla lesisinkwa, uzaphila okulaphakade. (aiōn )
Iyi nje nkonko ina yakeza hansi kukazwa kwi wulu, isiñi uvu veshenu vavali ni kufwa. Iye yo lya iyi nkonko mwahale kuya kuire.” (aiōn )
59 Watsho lezizinto esinagogeni efundisa eKapenawume.
Kono Jesu avali kuwamba inzi zintu mwi sinangonge na kwete kuruta mwa Capenaume.
60 Kwathi abanengi kubafundi bakhe besizwa bathi: Lilukhuni lelilizwi; ngubani ongalizwa?
Cwale vungi vwava rutwana vakwe vava zuwi izi chiva ti, “Iyi ituto ikavo ahulu; jeni yo wola kuitambula?”
61 Kodwa uJesu esazi phakathi kwakhe ukuthi abafundi bakhe bayasola ngalokhu, wathi kubo: Lokhu kuyalikhuba yini?
Jesu, kakuli avali kwizi mwali kuti varutwana vakwe vavali kukumbola heyi dava, chati kuvali, “Kana ichi chimi nyeza?
62 Pho, lizathini uba libona iNdodana yomuntu isenyukela lapho eyayikhona kuqala?
Cwale mukuve vule aho hasane kamuvone Mwana o Mutu nakambama kuta uko kwavali kwina sapilio?
63 KunguMoya ophilisayo, inyama kayisizi lutho; amazwi mina engiwakhuluma kini, angumoya njalo ayimpilo.
Luhuho luha vuhalo; inyama kakwina chi ivozekeza. Mazwi awo ani vawambi kwenu nga luhuho, mi go vuhalo.
64 Kodwa bakhona abanye kini abangakholwayo. Ngoba uJesu wayekwazi kusukela ekuqaleni, ukuthi ngobani abangakholwayo, lokuthi ngubani ozamnikela.
Imi kwina vamwi kwenu avo vasa zumini.”Kakuti Jesu avali kwinzi kuzwa kuma tangiro kuti mbani avo vate ni vakangwe kuzumina mi njeni uzo yate na muveteke.
65 Wasesithi: Kungenxa yalokhu ngithe kini: Kakho ongeza kimi, ngaphandle kokuthi ekunikwe nguBaba.
Cha wamba, “I vaka lyezi kuti na miwamba kwenu kuti kakwina zumwi yo wola kukeza kwangu mbwita haiva wa zumininwa kwa Tayo.”
66 Kusukela lapho abanengi babafundi bakhe babuyela emuva, kababe besahamba laye.
Kevaka lyezi, vungi bwa varutwana chiva vola kumusiya mi kena vavazwiri havusu ni kumwi chilira.
67 UJesu wasesithi kwabalitshumi lambili: Lani lithanda ukuzihambela yini?
Linu Jesu cha wamba kuvana ikumi ni tovere, “Inwe nanwe kamusaki kuyenda nanwe, musaka?”
68 USimoni Petro wasemphendula wathi: Nkosi, sizakuya kubani? Amazwi empilo elaphakade akuwe, (aiōnios )
Simoni Pitorosi chamwi tava, “Simwine, njikwani kwete tuyende? Wina manzwi ovuhalo vusa mani, (aiōnios )
69 njalo thina siyakholwa, sesisazi ukuthi wena unguKristu iNdodana kaNkulunkulu ophilayo.
mi tuva zumini ni kwiza kwiziva kuti jewe yo Chena yenke we Ireeza.”
70 UJesu wabaphendula wathi: Mina kangilikhethanga yini lina abalitshumi lambili, kodwa omunye wenu ungudiyabhola?
Jesu cha wamba kuvali, “Kena kuti ni vamiketi, vena ikumi ni minwe yovere, imi zumwi kwenu ji diavulusi?”
71 Wayekhuluma ngoJudasi Iskariyothi kaSimoni; ngoba nguye owayezamnikela, engomunye wabalitshumi lambili.
Hanu avali kuwamba kuama ni Judasi mwana wa Simoni Isikariyoti, kakuti ivali iye, omumwina kuvena ikumi ni tovere, kakuti ivali njiyena, uzo yatane veteke Jesu.
