ULukha 11
1 Kwasekusithi ekhuleka endaweni ethile, eseqedile, omunye wabafundi bakhe wathi kuye: Nkosi, sifundise ukukhuleka, njengoJohane laye wafundisa abafundi bakhe.
Ukatala Matungo Uyesu nakolompa, ung'wi wa amanyisigwa wakwe akamuila, mukulu, kumanyise nusesie kulumpa, anga uyohana nau amisilye iamanyisingwa akwe kulompa.
2 Wasesithi kubo: Nxa likhuleka, libokuthi: Baba wethu osemazulwini, kalihlonitshwe ibizo lakho. Umbuso wakho kawuze. Intando yakho kayenziwe, lemhlabeni njengezulwini.
Uyesu akaila nimukulompa, lungi, Tata, lina lako likuligwe, utemi wako uze.
3 Siphe usuku ngosuku ukudla kwethu kwensuku zonke.
Ukupe indya yitu nia mahiku ihi.
4 Njalo usithethelele izono zethu, ngoba lathi sibathethelela bonke abalamacala kithi. Njalo ungasingenisi ekulingweni, kodwa usikhulule ebubini.
Ukulekele imalandu itu aka use nikia lakala nakugaziiye, uleke kuitwala muimageng'wa.
5 Wasesithi kubo: Nguwuphi kini olomngane, futhi aye kuye phakathi kobusuku, athi kuye: Mngane, ngeboleka izinkwa ezintathu,
Uyesu akaila, nyenyu kitalanyu nukite umuhumba muya nukumuhanga uutiku, nukumuila, muhumba miane mpe imikate itatu.
6 ngoba kufike kimi umngane wami evela ekuhambeni, kodwa kangilalutho engingalubeka phambi kwakhe;
Kunsoko muhumba shuya wane wampikiila inoino kupuma muhinzo, nu ne nimugila indya nikumupa.
7 longaphakathi aphendule athi: Ungangihluphi; umnyango usuvaliwe, labantwana bami abancane balami embhedeni; kangingeke ngivuke ngikunike.
Nuyo nukale mrupumba akamuila, leka kunaja, umulango walugailwa palung'wi niana ane, nune nalala singa kuhuma kuuka nukuupa uewe indya.
8 Ngithi kini: Loba engazukuvuka amnike, ngoba engumngane wakhe, kodwa ngenxa yokuphikelela kwakhe uzavuka amnike konke akuswelayo.
Nunuie, kina atizeshukuuka indya umuhumba muya akwe, kunsoko akazulongolekile kumupitya tile niminyala, ukuuka akupe indya yidu kutula nuhilwa wako.
9 Mina-ke ngithi kini: Celani, lizaphiwa; dingani, lizathola; qoqodani, lizavulelwa.
Nu ne kumuila, lompi, nunye mukupewa, penzi nunye mukulija, pinduli nunye mukuluguilwa.
10 Ngoba wonke ocelayo uyemukela; lodingayo uyathola; loqoqodayo uyavulelwa.
kunsoko nuilompa wisingiilya, nuyu nuiduma wipata, pinduli nunye mukuluguilwa.
11 Kambe, nguwuphi kini onguyise ongathi indodana icela isinkwa, ayinike ilitshe? Loba-ke inhlanzi, ayinike inyoka endaweni yenhlanzi yini?
Tata kii kung'wanyu, ung'waakwe agalompe insamaki ukumupa nzoka?
12 Uba-ke icela iqanda, ayinike ufezela yini?
Ang'wi agalompe ije ukumpa nkumi?
13 Ngakho uba lina elingababi likwazi ukupha abantwana benu izipho ezinhle, kakhulu kangakanani uBaba osezulwini ezabapha uMoya oNgcwele abacela kuye.
Klulo ang'wi unyenye nimiabi mumanyile kuapa iana nyu imasongeelyo nimaza, Ai g'wautata nyu nua nuakigulu ukuapa ung'waungwelu ao nimulo mpa?
14 Wayesekhupha idimoni, elaliyisimungulu. Kwasekusithi, seliphumile idimoni, wakhuluma oyisimungulu; amaxuku asemangala.
Sunga Uyesu akatula mupatya umintunga, Uyu naukete umintunga ai kimume umintunga akahega kumuntu nuanso, umuntu nuanso akahuma kuligitya umitunda ukakuilwa nanguli.
15 Kodwa abanye babo bathi: Ukhupha amadimoni ngoBhelezebhule inkosi yamadimoni.
Niang'wi ikalunga, uyu ukuheja imintunga kua Beelzabul mukulu wa amintunga.
16 Labanye bemlinga badinga kuye isibonakaliso esivela ezulwini.
Niang'we akamgema ikalowa alagiile ikilingasilyo nikakupuma kilunde.
17 Kodwa yena eyazi imicabango yabo wathi kubo: Wonke umbuso owehlukene umelene lawo ngokwawo uyachitheka; njalo indlu emelene lendlu iyadilika.
Ingi uyesu akalinga imasigo akaaila, utemi wili nukutemanuka utula nuukia, ninyumba nikutemanuka ikugwa.
18 Njalo uba uSathane laye ehlukene emelane laye ngokwakhe, umbuso wakhe uzakuma njani? Ngoba lithi, ngikhupha amadimoni ngoBhelezebhule.
Ang'wi umubi ukutula utemanukile, utemi wakwe ukimaka ule? Kunsoko uenda lunga neenda heja imintunga kua Belzebuli.
19 Njalo uba mina ngikhupha amadimoni ngoBhelezebhule, amadodana enu akhupha ngobani? Ngakho wona azakuba ngabagwebi benu.
Ang'wi unene neenda heja iamintunga kua Belzebuli, ai iane menda heja imitunga kukiila ntuni? Kunsoko iyi, nianso azizamtwala mulamulwa.
20 Kodwa uba ngikhupha amadimoni ngomunwe kaNkulunkulu, isibili umbuso kaNkulunkulu usufikile kini.
Kululo, angwi kuheja amintunga kukiila shala kang'wi Tunda, ingi gwa utemi ukumuhanga.
21 Uba isiqhwaga sihlomile silinda owaso umuzi, impahla yaso isekuthuleni;
Umunyangulu nukite ishigi angaamilile inyumba kwe, imaintu akwe akikie uza.
22 kodwa nxa olamandla kulaso esisukela asinqobe, uyasemuka izikhali zaso ebesithembele kuzo, abesesaba impango yaso.
Kululo angingiilwe nu muntu numukiiye ingulu umunyangulu nuanso ukumuhegelya ishige yake, nukuhola insao yakwe yihi.
23 Ongelami umelene lami; longabuthi lami uyachithiza.
Uyu nisha kipalung'wi nu nene, shamiane, nuyu nishawilingiila palung'wi nunene wisambailya.
24 Nxa umoya ongcolileyo esephumile emuntwini, uyahamba adabule indawo ezomileyo, edinga ukuphumula; kodwa engakutholi athi: Ngizabuyela endlini yami engaphuma kuyo;
Umintunga numubi nukuhega kumuntu, wenda nikutili imaze kunsoko asupye. Agatule walimila, ukulunga, kusuka nazampumie.
25 njalo esefikile ayifice ithanyelwe njalo ilungisiwe.
Anga asuke ahange inyumba apyagulwa hangi ikie iza.
26 Abesehamba azithathele abanye omoya abayisikhombisa ababi kulaye uqobo, bangene bahlale lapho; njalo ukucina kwalowomuntu kube kubi kulokuqala.
Kululo wilongola kuaduma amintunga mupungati ao bi kukila nuanso, nukualeta ikie pang'wanso, u muntu nuanso witula mubi kukila nazawili ung'wandyo.
27 Kwasekusithi ekhuluma lezizinto, owesifazana othile exukwini waphakamisa ilizwi, wathi kuye: Sibusisiwe isisu esakuthwalayo, lamabele owawamunyayo.
Naukuligitya inkani izi, musungu ung'wi akahumbula ululi kukila ihi naiakoli pang'wanso akalunga, “Akembetwa inda naikutugile nimaele naumonkile.”
28 Kodwa yena wathi: Kodwa ikakhulu babusisiwe abalizwayo ilizwi likaNkulunkulu balilondoloze.
Sunga akalunga, akembetwa ao neija ulukani lang'wi Tunda nukuluamba.
29 Kwathi sekubuthene amaxuku eminyene, waqala ukuthi: Lesi isizukulwana sibi; sidinga isibonakaliso, kodwa kasiyikunikwa isibonakaliso, ngaphandle kwesibonakaliso sikaJona umprofethi.
Umilundo wa antu ukatula kongeeleka, u Yesu akandya kulunga, “Uwileli uwu ingi wileli wa ubi, ukuduma kilinga siilyo, kutile ikilingasiilyo nikikupegwa kukila ikiilingasiilyo ni kang'wa Yona.
30 Ngoba njengalokhu uJona waba yisibonakaliso kwabeNineve, leNdodana yomuntu izakuba njalo kulesisizukulwana.
Anga u Yona naikilingasiilyo kuantu a Ninawi. Uu nungwana wang'wa Adamu ukutula kilingasiilyo kuwileli uwu.
31 Indlovukazi yeningizimu izasukuma ekugwetshweni kanye lamadoda alesisizukulwana, iwalahle; ngoba yavela emikhawulweni yomhlaba ukuzakuzwa inhlakanipho kaSolomoni, njalo khangelani, omkhulu kuloSolomoni ulapha.
Umusungu wa Mutemi nuakutakama ukimika uluhiku nula ulamulwa niantu awileli uwu azizapegwa ulamulwa wao, ingi nuanso aupumie kumpelu nihi aze ategeelye uhugu wang'wa Solomoni, na paite ukoli numukulu kukila u Solomoni.
32 Amadoda eNineve azasukuma ekugwetshweni kanye lalesisizukulwana, asilahle; ngoba aphenduka ngokutshumayela kukaJona, njalo khangelani, omkhulu kuloJona ulapha.
Iantu a Ninawi akimika mulamulwa palung'wi niantu niawileli uwu uluhiku la ulamulwa azizaapa uulamulwa, kunsoko nianso aialekile imilandu nu Yona naukutanantya ulukani lang'wi Yunda, hangi goza pang'wanso ukoli numukulu kukila Yona.
33 Futhi kakho othi eselumathise isibane asibeke ekusithekeni, loba ngaphansi kwesitsha, kodwa phezu kwesiqobane sesibane, ukuze abangenayo babone ukukhanya.
Kutile umuntu wihi, nuakilya ulumuli aluike mulungu ang'wi pihi akikapu, ingi wakilya nukuika migulya kunsoko akelyo, angawingila muntu wihi ahume kuona uwelu.
34 Isibane somzimba yilihlo; ngakho nxa ilihlo lakho liphilile, lomzimba wakho wonke ugcwele ukukhanya; kodwa nxa lilibi, lomzimba wakho ulobumnyama.
Iliho lako lumuli la muili iliho lako angalilule iza umuili wako wihi ukutula nuwelu, iliho lako angalihule ibi umuili wako wihi ukutula kiti.
35 Ngakho qaphela ukuthi ukukhanya okukuwe kungabi ngumnyama.
Kululo mihambe uwelu nuukole mitalanyu uleke kukilwa ikiti.
36 Ngakho uba umzimba wakho wonke ugcwele ukukhanya, ungelandawo emnyama, uzakhanya wonke, njengesibane sikukhanyisa ngokukhanya.
Kululo ang'wi umuili wako ukoli muwelu, hangi kutile ata nuunino nuukoli mukiti. Ingi gwa umuili wako ukutula anga ulumuli nulukupumya uwelu kitalanyu.”
37 Kwathi esakhuluma, umFarisi othile wamcela ukuthi adle laye; wasengena wahlala ekudleni.
Naiwamala kuligitya, Farisayo akamana enda alye ndya kitalakwe, u Yesu akingila munyumba akatula palung'wi nienso.
38 Kwathi umFarisi ebona lokhu wamangala ukuthi kazange aqale ageze phambi kokudla kwemini.
Imafarisayo ikakuilwa kunsoko shaukalae indya naikili kuletwa.
39 Yasisithi iNkosi kuye: Khathesi lina baFarisi lihlambulula ingaphandle yenkezo leyesitsha, kodwa ingaphakathi yenu igcwele ukuphanga lobubi.
U Yesu akaila, “Unye Mafarisayo mendoja iseme kunzi, mukati anyu mizue insuula nimbi nuubi.
40 Zithutha, yena owenza ingaphandle kayenzanga yini lengaphakathi?
Unye antu nimiagila uhugu uyu naumbile kunzi shanga au umbile ne numukati?”
41 Kodwa phanini zibe yizipho zabayanga lezozinto ezingaphakathi; khangelani-ke, konke kuzahlambuluka kini.
Ape iahimbe aya namkati, ni nkani yihi ikutula nza kitalanyu.
42 Kodwa maye kini baFarisi! Ngoba lithela okwetshumi kwetshwayi leganga leruwi, lakuyo yonke imibhida, njalo liseqa ukwehlulela lothando lukaNkulunkulu; belifanele ukwenza lezizinto, lingakuyekeli lalokhu.
Kululo isatiko lanyu Mafarisayo, nsoko mipumya imasongeelyo aminanaa numuchicha ni nyenyi yihi niamugunda, kunu mulekile inkani ya tai nukumulowa Itunda, kuna shango mukuleka nimangiza.
43 Maye kini baFarisi! Ngoba lithanda izihlalo zabahloniphekayo emasinagogeni, lokubingelelwa emidangeni.
Isatiko lanyu Mafarisayo kunsoko milowa kikiie kumatuntu akuntongeela amatekeelo nukulamukigwa kua milamu iyi nikilya.
44 Maye kini, babhali labaFarisi, bazenzisi! Ngoba lifanana lamangcwaba angabonakaliyo, labantu abahamba phezu kwawo bengawazi.
Isatiko lanyu kunsoko mimpyani niibula ningila ilingasiilyo iantu niza azegenda migulya aibiila nianso singaazeaine.”
45 Omunye wezazumthetho wasephendula wathi kuye: Mfundisi, ngokutsho lezizinto uyasithuka lathi.
Mumanyisi ung'wi wa unonelya wa Kiyahudi akasusha akamuila, mumanyisi iki nukukiligitya kakutasha use.
46 Kodwa wathi: Maye lakini zazumthetho! Ngoba lethwesa abantu imithwalo enzima ukuthwalwa, kodwa lina uqobo lwenu kaliyithinti leyomithwalo langomunye weminwe yenu.
Yesu akaila isatiko lanyu, unye aminyisi ankani, ingi mendaapa iantu imiligo nisinga ahumile kuminkenka, kunu unye shamaenda miamba ata nayala yanyu.
47 Maye kini! Ngoba lakha amangcwaba abaprofethi, njalo oyihlo bababulala.
Isatiko lanyu kunsoko mendazenga nukuika ilingasiilyo muibiila ya anyakidagu ao naiabulagilwe niesekulu anyu.
48 Ngalokhu-ke lifakaza ukuthi livumelana lemisebenzi yaboyihlo; ngoba bona bababulala, lina-ke liyawakha amangcwaba abo.
Kululo gwa unyenye mihangile nukigombya imilimo naiitumile isekulu anyu, kunsoko ikulukulu aiabulagile ianyakidagu, imo nimezenga ilingasiilyo muibiila yao.
49 Ngalokhu-ke inhlakanipho kaNkulunkulu yathi: Ngizabathuma abaprofethi labaphostoli, labanye babo bazababulala babaxotshe;
Kunsoko iyo uhugu wang'wi Tunda uuliye, kuatuma ianyakidagu neituma milimo ane neenso muakaja nukuabulaga niang'wi.
50 ukuze kubizwe kulesisizukulwana igazi labaprofethi bonke elachithwa kusukela ekusekelweni komhlaba,
Uwileli uwu uziza liilwa ni sakami anyakidagu naiabulagile kupuma ung'wandyo nua unkumbigulu.
51 kusukela egazini likaAbela kuze kufike egazini likaZakariya owabulawa phakathi laphakathi kwelathi lendlu kaNkulunkulu; yebo, ngithi kini: Lizabizwa kulesisizukulwana.
Kupuma usakami wang'wa Abeli nu Zakaria, naubulagilwe pakati wikumbikilo la ng'waung'welu. Uu, numuie uwileli uwu uzizaliilwa.
52 Maye kini zazumthetho! Ngoba lisusile isihluthulelo solwazi; kalingenanga lina uqobo lwenu, labangenayo labavimbela.
Isatiko lanyu amanyisi ankani nia Kiyahudi kunsoko mahola ifungulo nia uhugu; unyenye shamendingila, kunu mukuagilya kingila ao niatakile kingila.”
53 Kwathi ekhuluma lezizinto kubo, ababhali labaFarisi baqala ukumngxamela kakhulukazi, lokumbuzisisa ngezinto ezinengi,
U Yesu naiwahega pang'wanso, akilisa nkani ni Mafarisayo ikatula kumugilya nukikunguma nung'wenso kua nkani idu.
54 bemthiya, bedinga ukubamba ulutho oluphuma emlonyeni wakhe, ukuze bambeke icala.
Akaze mugema kumutungila ahume kupantika lukani kitalakwe.
