1 Kwasekusondela kuye bonke abathelisi lezoni, ukumuzwa.
Nongma kanggat khomba amadi atoppa papchengba pumnamakna Jisuna tambiba tananabagidamak mahakki manakta laklammi.
2 AbaFarisi lababhali basebesola besithi: Lo wemukela izoni, adle lazo.
Maduda pharisee-sing amadi wayel yathanggi ojasingna marum marum sonduna hainarak-i, “Nupa asina papisingbu taramna ok-i amasung makhoiga chasu chaminnei!”
3 Wasebatshela lumfanekiso, esithi:
Maduda Jisuna pandam asi makhoida hairak-i,
4 Nguwuphi umuntu kini ongathi elezimvu ezilikhulu, abeselahlekelwa ngenye yazo, ongazitshiyi ezingamatshumi ayisificamunwemunye lasificamunwemunye egangeni, alandele elahlekileyo, aze ayithole?
“Nakhoigi marakta yao chama leiba kanagumba amagi yao ama mangkhrabadi nahakna kari tougani? Nahakna atoppa yao maraphutara mapan adubu lamhangda hundoklamduna mangkhraba yao adubu phangdriphaoba thiroidra?
5 Njalo athi eseyitholile ayetshate ethokoza.
Aduga nahakna madubu phangba matamda adukki matik haraoduna nahakna madubu lengbanda thonggatli.
6 Esefikile ekhaya, abizele ndawonye abangane labomakhelwane, esithi kubo: Thokozani lami, ngoba ngithole imvu yami ebilahlekile.
Aduga nahakna yumda halaktuna nahakki marup-mapangsing amadi keirol-leikaisingbu kouraduna makhoida hai, ‘Eina eigi mangluraba yao adu amuk hanna phangjare, aduna eikhoi haraominnasi.’
7 Ngithi kini: Ngokunjalo kuzakuba khona intokozo ezulwini ngesoni esisodwa esiphendukayo, kulabalungileyo abangamatshumi ayisificamunwemunye lasificamunwemunye, abangasweli ukuphenduka.
Eina nakhoida hairi madudi, matou adugumduna pukning hongba mathou tadaba achumba chatpa makhoi maraphutara mapandagi papchenba amana pukning hongbada swargada henna haraoba oigani.
8 Loba nguwuphi umfazi othi elenhlamvu zesiliva ezilitshumi, uba elahlekelwa luhlamvu olulodwa lwesiliva, angalumathisi isibane, athanyele indlu, adingisise aze aluthole?
“Nattraga lupagi senmayek tara leibi nupi amagi senmayek ama mangkhrabadi mahakna thaomei chukhattuna amadi yumdu sumjit sittuna senmayek adu phangdriba phaoba cheksinna thiroidra?
9 Njalo nxa eselutholile ubizela ndawonye abangane labomakhelwane, athi: Thokozani lami, ngoba sengilutholile uhlamvu lwesiliva ebengilahlekelwe yilo.
Aduga mahakna madu phangba matamda mahakna magi marup-mapangsing amadi keirol-leikaisingbu kouraduna hai, ‘Eina eigi mangluraba senmayek adu amuk phangjare, aduna eikhoi haraominnasi.’
10 Ngokunjalo, ngithi kini, ikhona intokozo phambi kwezingilosi zikaNkulunkulu ngesoni esisodwa esiphendukayo.
Eina nakhoida hairi madudi matou adugumduna pap chengba amana paptagi pukning hongba matamda Tengban Mapugi swargadutsingna harao-i.”
11 Wasesithi: Umuntu othile wayelamadodana amabili;
Jisuna makha tana hairak-i, “Kanagumba nupa amagi machanupa ani leirammi.
12 encinyane yawo yasisithi kuyise: Baba, nginika isabelo sempahla esiqondene lami. Wasewehlukanisela impahla.
Aduga machanupa atomba aduna mapada hairammi, ‘Ipa, Eigi phangpham thokpa lanthumgi saruk adu eingonda pibiro.’ Adudagi mapa aduna mahakki areiba lanthum adu makhoi anida yenthokpire.
13 Njalo kungelansuku ezinengi emva kwalokhu indodana encinyane yabutha konke yasuka yahamba yaya elizweni elikhatshana, njalo lapho yachitha khona impahla yayo, iphila okobuhlanya.
Madugi matung numit kharagi matungda machanupa atomba aduna mahakki lanthumgi saruk adu yonthoktuna senpham adu puraga mayum thadoktuna chatkhre. Aduga mahakna arappa leibak amada chatuna cheksindaba punsi mahing amada hingduna maran-mathum pumnamak manghallammi.
14 Yathi isichithile konke, kwavela indlala enkulu kulelolizwe, yona yasiqala ukuswela.
Amasung mahakki leijaba pumnamak adu sijinnathokhraba matungda leibak aduda sathina chak tangba thokle aduga mahak awatpana thallakle.
15 Yasisuka yazihlanganisa lesinye sezakhamizi zalelolizwe; njalo sayithuma emasimini aso ukuze yeluse izingulube.
Adudagi mahakna lam aduda leiba mi amagida chattuna mahakpu thabakta sijinnabinaba haijarure amasung nupa aduna mahakpu ok sennanaba thare.
16 Yasifisa ukugcwalisa isisu sayo ngamakhasi ingulube eziwadlayo; njalo kwakungelamuntu oyinika ulutho.
Aduga mahak adukki matik mabuk lamlammi madudi okta pijariba okchak adu chaduna mabuk thalhanninglammi. Adubu kana amatana mangonda kari amata pibiramde.
17 Kwathi ingqondo yayo isibuyile yathi: Zingaki izisebenzi zikababa eziqhatshiweyo ezilezinkwa ezinengi kakhulu, kanti mina ngiyafa yindlala;
Mameithangda mahakna wakhal tarakladuna masa mathanta haijarammi, ‘Eigi ipagi anekpa minaisingna phaoba chananaba lem pana lei aduga eina maphamsida lambana sigadoure!
18 ngizasukuma ngiye kubaba, ngithi kuye: Baba, ngonile ezulwini, laphambi kwakho;
Eina hougattuna ipagi manakta chatlaga haigani, Ipa, eina Tengban Mapu amadi nahakki maiyokta pap toukhre.
19 njalo kangisafanelanga ukubizwa ngithiwe ngiyindodana yakho; ngenza ngibe njengomunye wezisebenzi zakho eziqhatshiweyo.
Eihak amuk hanna nahakki nachanupa koubada matik chadre; eihakpu nahakki anekpa minai amagumna lousinbiyu.’
20 Yasisukuma yaya kuyise. Kodwa kuthe isesekhatshana, uyise wayibona, waba lesihelo, wagijima wawela entanyeni yayo, wayanga.
Adudagi mahakna hougattuna mapagi manakta halakle. “Aduga mahakna mayum yougadaba thaplingeidagi mahakna lakpa adu mapana urammi. Amasung thamoida nungsibana thalladuna mahakna machagi manakta chenthoraklaga mahakpu konsinduna chupkhi.
21 Indodana yasisithi kuye: Baba, ngonile ezulwini laphambi kwakho, futhi kangisafanelanga ukubizwa ngokuthi ngiyindodana yakho.
Matamduta machanupa aduna hairak-i, ‘Ipa, Eina Tengban Mapu amadi nahakki maiyokta pap toukhre. Eihak amuk hanna nahakki nachanupa koubada matik chadre.’
22 Kodwa uyise wathi ezincekwini zakhe: Khuphani lilethe isembatho esihle kakhulu liyigqokise, lifake indandatho esandleni sayo, lamanyathela enyaweni zayo;
Adubu mapa aduna mahakki minaisingbu kouraduna hairak-i, ‘Thuna mahakkidamak khwaidagi phaba phijol puraktuna setchinbiyu, khutsada khudop sijinbiyu amasung makhongda khong-up tongsinbiyu.
23 lilethe ithole elinonisiweyo lilihlabe, njalo sidle sithokoze;
Aduga masa noiba sa ama puraktuna hatlu. Eikhoina chaklen ama sinduna harao nungaiba phongdoksi.
24 ngoba indodana yami le ibifile, isibuye yaphila; ibilahlekile, itholiwe; basebeqala ukuthokoza.
Maramdi eigi ichanupa asi sirurabani adubu amuk hinglakle; mahak manglurabani adubu amuk phangjare.’ Adudagi makhoina harao nungaiminaba houre.
25 Kodwa indodana yakhe endala yayisensimini; yathi isiza isondela endlini, yezwa ukuhlabelela lokusina.
“Matam aduda machanupa ahal adudi loubukta leirammi. Aduga mahakna halaktuna yum naksilaklabada isei-nongmai amasung jagoi sabagi makhol tarammi.
26 Yasibizela kuyo omunye wezinceku, yabuza ukuthi zitshoni lezizinto.
Adudagi mahakna manaising amabu kouduna mapham asida touribasing asi karino haina hanglammi.
27 Yasisithi kuyo: Umfowenu ufikile; loyihlo uhlabile ithole elinonisiweyo, ngoba ememukele ephila.
Maduda manai aduna khumlak-i, ‘Nahakki nanaonupa aduk amuk halakle, aduga mahakna asoi angam karisu yaodana halakpa adugidamak nahakki napana masa noihallaba sa ama hatlibani.’
28 Kodwa yathukuthela, ayizange ifune ukungena; ngakho uyise waphuma wayincenga.
Maduda machanupa ahal adu adukki matik saorammi amasung mayumda changlamde. Maram aduna mapa aduna thoraktuna mahakpu yumda changlaknaba haijarammi.
29 Kodwa yaphendula yathi kuyise: Khangela, iminyaka engaka ngikusebenzela, kangizange ngeqe umlayo wakho, kodwa kawuzange unginike lazinyane lembuzi, ukuze ngijabule kanye labangane bami.
Adubu mahakna mapada hairak-i, ‘Yengngu, chahi kaya asi eina minai amagumna nahakkidamak thabak surakli aduga nongmatasu nahakki yathang indaba toukhidri. Adubu eigi marup mapangsingga chaminnaduna haraominnanaba hameng macha amatang phaoba nahakna eingonda keidoungeidasu pikhidri.
30 Kodwa kuthe isifikile lindodana yakho eyachitha impahla yakho lezifebe, wayihlabela ithole elinonisiweyo.
Adubu nahakki naral nathum apumba oktabi nupisingda hundokluraga halakpa nahakki nachanupa asigidamaktadi nahakna anoiba sa hattuna haraoba phongdokli.’
31 Wasesithi kuyo: Ndodana, wena uhlezi ulami, futhi konke okungokwami kungokwakho.
Maduda mapa aduna mangonda khumlak-i, ‘Yengu, ichanupa, nahakti matam pumnamakta eihakka leiminnari aduga eigi areiba pumnamaksisu nahakkini.
32 Kodwa bekufanele ukujabula lokuthokoza; ngoba umfowenu lo owayefile, usebuye waphila; wayelahlekile, utholiwe.
Aduga asumna harao nungaiminnabagi thouram asisu pangthokpada matik chai, maramdi nahakki nanaonupa asi sirurabani adubu amuk hinglakle; mahak manglurabani adubu amuk phangjare.’”
