ULukha 8
1 Kwasekusithi emva kwalokho, yena wadabula imizi lemizana, ememezela lokutshumayela indaba ezinhle zombuso kaNkulunkulu; labalitshumi lambili babelaye,
Gakapiteje genego a Yeshu bhashinkupita mwilambo na ijiji bhalipita lunguya Ngani ja Mmbone ja Upalume gwa Nnungu. Bhaajiganywa likumi limo na bhabhili bhala gubhalongenenabhonji.
2 labesifazana abathile ababesiliswe kubomoya ababi lemikhuhlaneni, uMariya othiwa nguMagadalena, okwaphuma kuye amadimoni ayisikhombisa,
Na kabhili bhanabhakongwe bhana bhashoshiywenje maoka na bhalamywenje ilwele na a Yeshu bhatendagalongana nabhonji. Bhene bhanganyabho pubhalinginji, a Malia Magidalena, bhashoshiywe maoka shabha,
3 loJowana umkaKuza induna kaHerodi, loSusana, labanye abanengi, ababemsiza ngempahla zabo.
a Yowana akongobhabho a Kusha bhatumishi bhakulu bha nnyumba ja a Elode na a Shushana na bhananji bhowepe, bhene bhanabhakongwebho bhatendaga kwajangutilanga a Yeshu kwa mali gabhonji ashaayene.
4 Kwathi sekubuthene ixuku elikhulu, njalo bevela emizini ngemizi besiza kuye, wakhuluma ngomfanekiso,
Likundi likulungwa lya bhandunji lyashinkwaajiila a Yeshu kukoposhela ilambo na ilambo. Nabhalabho gubhaatanjilenje aluno lutango luno.
5 wathi: Umhlanyeli waphuma ukuyahlanyela inhlanyelo yakhe; kwathi ekuhlanyeleni kwakhe, enye yawela eceleni kwendlela; yasinyathelwa ngenyawo, lenyoni zezulu zayidla zayiqeda.
“Nkupanda ashinkwenda miya mmbeju yakwe. Pamiyaga pala mmbeju ina ikugwilaga mumpanda, bhapita mpanda gwaalibhetenje na ijuni gwiilile.
6 Lenye yawela edwaleni, kwathi ekukhuleni yabuna, ngoba yaswela ubumanzi.
Ina gwiigwilile nnindandawe, ikameleje gwiiwile pabha pakakweteje mashi.
7 Lenye yawela phakathi kwameva, ameva asemila layo ayiminyanisa.
Ina gwiigwilile mmibha. Mibha ila ikakuleje guitenjele.
8 Lenye yawela emhlabathini omuhle, yakhula yathela ikhulu. Esetshilo lezizinto wamemeza wathi: Olendlebe zokuzwa akezwe.
Na ina guigwilile palitaka lya mmbone, guimelile niogoya yaigwinji.” Bhakabheleketeje genego, gubhautiye lilobhe bhalinkuti, “Akwete makutujo apilikane!”
9 Abafundi bakhe basebembuza besithi: Ungaba yini lumfanekiso?
Bhaajiganywa bhabho a Yeshu gubhaabhushiyenje malombolelo ga lwene lutangolo.
10 Wasesithi: Kuphiwe kini ukwazi imfihlo zombuso kaNkulunkulu; kodwa kwabanye ngemifanekiso, ukuze bebona bangaboni, njalo besizwa bangaqedisisi.
Bhalabho gubhajangwile, “Mmanganya nkwetenje shikono sha kwiimanya indu ya nng'iyo ya mu Upalume gwa a Nnungu, ikabhe nngabha bhananjibho, kwa bhanganyabho pungwaabhalanjilanga kwa ndango. Nkupinga bhalolangaga bhanashibhonanje shindu na bhapilikanangaga bhanamumanyanje.”
11 Lomfanekiso uyilokhu: Inhlanyelo iyilizwi likaNkulunkulu.
Bhai gegano malombolelo ga lutangolu. Mmbeju lilobhe lya a Nnungu.
12 Labaseceleni kwendlela yilabo abathi sebezwile, besekufika udiyabhola alisuse ilizwi enhliziyweni zabo, ukuze bangakholwa basindiswe.
Nneyo peyo shikoposhele kwa mmbeju igwilile mumpanda shinalandana na bhandunji bhakulipilikananga lilobhe lila, kungai gwaishe ibhilishi gwalishoshiye mmitima jabhonji, bhanakulupalilanga nitapulwa.
13 Labasedwaleni yilabo, abathi belizwile, balemukele ilizwi ngentokozo, kodwa laba kabalampande, abakholwa okwesikhathi, kuthi ngesikhathi sokulingwa bawe.
Nneyo peyo shikoposhele kwa mmbeju igwilile pa lindandawe, shinalandana na bhandunji, bhakupilikananga lilobhe lila bhanakuliposhelanga nikwiinonyela. Ikabheje, namalinga mmbeju ila, bhene bhandunjibho pabha bhangalinji nnjiga, bhanakulupalilanga kashokope na bhalingwangaga bhakaakabhanga kuwa ntima.
14 Lewele phakathi kwameva, yilabo abathi sebezwile, bahambe baminyaniswe yikukhathalela lenotho lenkanuko yempilo, njalo bangatheli izithelo ezivuthiweyo.
Nneyo peyo shikoposhele kwa mmbeju igwilile mmibha shinalandana na bhandunji bhakulipilikananga lilobhe lila, ikabheje bhajabhulanganaga kashokope, bhanaakamulwanga na lipamba, na indu na mboka ya ndamo, bhalabhonji bhakaaogoyanga iepo nikomala.
15 Kodwa esemhlabathini omuhle, yilabo abathi belizwile ilizwi balilondoloze enhliziyweni enhle lelungileyo, bathela izithelo ngokubekezela.
Nneyo peyo shikoposhele kwa mmbeju igwilile pa litaka lya mmbone, shinalandana na bhandunji bhakulipilikananga lilobhe lila kwa ntima gwa mmbone nikunda. Bhanganyabho bhanakwiikakatimilanga mpaka niogoya iepo.
16 Njalo kakho othi eselumathise isibane, asembese ngesitsha, kumbe asibeke ngaphansi kombheda, kodwa usibeka esiqobaneni sesibane, ukuze abangenayo babone ukukhanya.
Bhandu bhakakoleyanga kandili nikujiunishila eu kujibhika nng'ungu. Ikabheje pabhikwa panani, nkupinga bhandu bhajinjilanga bhashibhonanje shilangaya.
17 Ngoba kakukho okufihliweyo, okungasoze kube sobala; lokuthukuziweyo, okungayikwaziwa lokungayikulethwa obala.
“Pabha shoshowe shishiiywe, shipinga undukulwa na yowe ili ya nng'iyo ipinga manyika kulugwinjili.
18 Ngakho qaphelisani ukuthi lizwa njani; ngoba loba ngubani olakho, uzaphiwa; kodwa loba ngubani ongelakho, uzakwemukwa lalokho acabanga ukuthi ulakho.
“Kwa nneyo mwiiteiganje na inkupilikanangayo, pabha akwete shindu shajenjesheywe, ikabheje jwangali shindu, nkali shishoko shaaganishiya akwete shila, apinga pokonyolwa.”
19 Kwasekufika kuye unina labafowabo, kodwa abazange bamfinyelele ngenxa yexuku.
Penepo anyinabhabho na ashaapwabho a Yeshu gubhaikengenenje kukwaalola, ikabheje bhangakombolanga kwaabhandishila kwa ligongo lya lugwinjili lwa bhandu.
20 Wasebikelwa ngabanye abathi: Unyoko labafowenu bemi phandle, bafuna ukukubona.
A Yeshu gubhabhalanjilwe kuti, anyinabhenu na ashaapwenu pubhalinginji palanga, bhanapinganga kummona.
21 Kodwa waphendula wathi kubo: Umama labafowethu yilabo, abalizwayo ilizwi likaNkulunkulu balenze.
Ikabheje a Yeshu gubhaabhalanjilenje bhandu bhowe, “Bhakulipilikanishiyanga na kulikamulila lilobhe lya a Nnungu bhanganyabho ni a mama na ashapwanga nne.”
22 Kwasekusithi ngolunye lwezinsuku, wangena emkhunjini yena labafundi bakhe, wasesithi kubo: Asichaphele ngaphetsheya kwechibi; basuka-ke.
Lyubha limo a Yeshu na Bhaajiganywa bhabho bhashinkukwelanga mmashua, gubhaabhalanjilenje, “Tujomboshe litanda tuishe kung'ambu.” Bhai, mwanja niguutandwibhe.
23 Kwathi behamba ngomkhumbi, walala ubuthongo; isiphepho esikhulu somoya sasesisehlela phansi echibini, bagcwalelwa ngamanzi, babesengozini.
Bhalinginji mmashua, a Yeshu gubhagonile lugono. Mbungo na mabhimbili gamakulumakulu gugatabhile, mashi nigugatandwibhe kupakushila mmashua, nigubhajogopenje kaje, nibha atali.
24 Basebesondela bamvusa, besithi: Nkosi, nkosi, siyabhubha! Wasevuka wakhuza umoya lamagagasi amakhulu amanzi; kwasekusima, kwasekusiba lokuthula.
Bhaajiganywa bhala gubhapite kukwaajumuyanga a Yeshu, bhalinkutinji, “Mmakulungwa, Mmakulungwa, tunawa!” A Yeshu nigubhajumwishe, nigubhajikalipile mbungo na mabhimbili gala, niguitondwebhe, kwa jii.
25 Wasesithi kubo: Lungaphi ukholo lwenu? Basebesesaba bamangala, bakhulumisana besithi: Kambe ungubani lo, ukuthi alaye ngitsho imimoya lamanzi, njalo kumlalele?
Penepo nigubhaabhushiyenje, “Jili kwei ngulupai jenunji?” Gubhakanganigwenje na jogopa, akuno bhalibhuyananga, “Igala bhenebha bhandu bhashi, nkali mbungo na mabhimbili bhanakwiamulisha nikwaapilikana?”
26 Basebesiya ngomkhumbi elizweni lamaGadarene, eliqondene leGalili.
Gubhaikengenenje kushilambo sha Bhagelashi, shilolana na ku Galilaya kung'ambu ja litanda.
27 Kwathi esephumele emhlabathini, yamhlangabeza indoda ethile ivela emzini, eyayilamadimoni okwesikhathi eside, njalo ingembathi isembatho, ingahlali endlini, kodwa emangcwabeni.
A Yeshu pubhaulukaga kumbwani, mundu jumo nshilambo jwa shene shilambo shila, akwete maoka, gwabhaishile. Kwa mobha gamagwinji jwene mundujo akawalaga nngubho wala akatamaga nnyumba, ikabhe ndamo jakwe pujaaliji mmashembo ga shishila bhandu.
28 Yathi imbona uJesu, yamemeza, yawa phansi phambi kwakhe, yathi ngelizwi elikhulu: Ngilani lawe, Jesu, Ndodana kaNkulunkulu oPhezukonke? Ngiyakuncenga, ungangihluphi.
Akaabhoneje a Yeshu, gwajobhele gwaigwishiye pai mmujo jabho akuno alibheleketa kwa utiya, “Mmwe a Yeshu bhanabhabho a Nnungu bhakulu, mmwe nndi na nne? Shonde, ngunajuga nnamboteshe!”
29 Ngoba walaya umoya ongcolileyo ukuthi aphume kulowomuntu; ngoba wayesembambe okwezikhathi ezinengi, walindwa ebotshiwe ngamaketane lezibopho, kodwa eseqamule izibopho waqhutshelwa enkangala lidimoni.
Ashinkubheleketa nneyo pabha a Yeshu bhammalanjile lioka jula kuti anshoshe mundu jula. Jwene lioka jwangali jwa mmbone jula akakabhaga kunkamula mundu jula, nkali bhandu bhanng'ugalilanje nnyumba nikuntabha mindondolo ja itale na pingu mmakono na mmakongono, akakabhaga kukutulanya yoweyo, na lioka jula atendaga kumminganjila kuanga.
30 UJesu wasembuza, wathi: Ungubani ibizo lakho? Wasesithi: NguLegiyoni; ngoba amadimoni amanengi ayengene kuye.
Bhai a Yeshu gubhammushiye, “Lina lyako gani?” Gwajangwile, “Lina lyangu, ‘Manjola’” Pabha gashinkunjinjila maoka gamagwinji.
Ashimaoka bhala gubhaashondelesheyenje a Yeshu bhanaabhinganjilanje ku Jeanamu. (Abyssos g12)
32 Kwakukhona lapho umhlambi wengulube ezinengi usidla entabeni; asemncenga ukuthi awavumele angene kuzo. Wasewavumela.
Penepo lyashinkupagwa likundi lya ngulubhe lilipitalya nshitumbi. Bhai ashimaoka bhala gubhaashondelesheyenje a Yeshu bhaaleshelelanje bhakaajinjilanje ashingulubhe bhala. Na bhalabho a Yeshu gubhaaleshelelenje.
33 Kwathi amadimoni esephumile kulowomuntu angena engulubeni; umhlambi wasuphaphatheka usuka eliweni usiya echibini, waminzwa.
Kwa nneyo ashimaoka bhala bhakunshokanganaga mundu jula, gubhaajinjilenje ashingulubhe, gubhaelelenje nnikote shibhutuka, nititimila nnitanda.
34 Kwathi ababezelusile bebona okwenzakeleyo babaleka, basuka bayabika emzini, lemaphandleni.
Bhalinda bha ngulubhe bhakagabhonanjeje gowe gakoposhele gala, gubhabhutukenje pita shumya nshilambo mula na mmigunda.
35 Basebephuma ukuyabona okwenzakeleyo; bafika kuJesu, bamfica umuntu okwakuphume kuye amadimoni ehlezi enyaweni zikaJesu, embethe esephelele engqondweni; basebesesaba.
Bhandunji gubhaikengenenje kulola gakoposhele. Gubhaajendelenje a Yeshu, gubhammweninji mundu ashoshilwe na maoka jula, atemi pa makongono ga a Yeshu, awete nngubho, ali na lunda lwakwe lwa mmbone, gubhajogopenje.
36 Basebebatshela lalabo ababebonile ukuthi usindiswe njani owayengenwe ngamadimoni.
Bhandu bhagawenenje pugatendekaga, gubhaatalashiyenje bhananji, shaashite lamywa mundu akwete maoka jula.
37 Ixuku lonke lesigaba samaGadarene esizingelezeleyo laselimcela ukuthi asuke kubo, ngoba babanjwa yikwesaba okukhulu; yena wasengena emkhunjini waphindela emuva.
Bhashilambo bha Kugelashi gwaajogopenje kwa kaje. Kwa nneyo gubhaajujilenje a Yeshu bhashoshe. Bhai a Yeshu gubhakwelile ntumbwi gubhaijabhulile.
38 Kodwa indoda okwakuphume kuyo amadimoni yamncenga ukuthi ibe laye. Kodwa uJesu wayiyekela yahamba, esithi:
Mundu ashoshiywe maoka jula, akwaashondelesheyag a Yeshu alonganenabho. Ikabheje a Yeshu gubhannajile bhalinkuti,
39 Buyela endlini yakho, ulandise ukuthi kungakanani uNkulunkulu akwenze kuwe. Wasesuka wahamba, etshumayela phakathi komuzi wonke ukuthi kungakanani uJesu ayekwenzile kuye.
“Ubhuje kumui ukatalashiye yowe ibhakutendele a Nnungu.” Bhai mundu jula gwajabhwile pita lunguya ibhantendele a Yeshu, mmbali yowe ya shilambo shila.
40 Kwasekusithi ekubuyeni kukaJesu, ixuku lamthakazelela; ngoba bonke babemlindele.
A Yeshu bhakabhujeje, gubhaposhelwe na likundi likulungwa lya bhandu, pabha bhatendaga kwaalindililanga.
41 Njalo khangela, kwafika indoda, uJayirosi ngebizo, yona ingumphathi wesinagoge, yasisiwa phansi enyaweni zikaJesu yamncenga ukuthi angene endlini yayo;
Penepo gubhaishe bhandu bhamo bhashemwaga a Yailo bhakulungwa bha shinagogi, gubhaatindibhalile a Yeshu, gubhaajujile bhajende kunngwabho,
42 ngoba yayilendodakazi eyodwa ezelweyo eyayingaba leminyaka elitshumi lambili, njalo yona yayisisifa. Kwathi esahamba amaxuku amcindezela.
pabha nabhiti jwabho jwa yaka likumi limo na ibhili, numbe jwa jikape, paliji nnwele tome nawa. A Yeshu bhali nkwenda, bhandunji bhatendaga nokolananga nkwaabhandishila.
43 Lowesifazana owayelomopho wegazi okweminyaka elitshumi lambili, echithe konke okwempilo yakhe kubelaphi engelakusiliswa langubani,
Bhai nnikundi lya bhandu mula bhashinkupagwa bhakongwe bhamo bhalwalaga nsholosholo yaka likumi limo na ibhili, bhashinkumaliya indu yabho yowe ku bhamitela, ikabheje jwakwapi akombwele kwaalamya.
44 wasondela ngemva kwakhe, wathinta umphetho wesembatho sakhe; njalo wahle wakhawula umopho wegazi lakhe.
Bhakongwe bhala gubhaakagwile a Yeshu pa nnyuma, gubhaakwashiye libhiniko lya nngubho jabho. Popo pepo gubhalamile shilwele shila.
45 UJesu wasesithi: Ngubani ongithintileyo? Kwathi lapho bephika bonke, uPetro wathi lababelaye: Nkosi, ixuku likuminyanisile likucindezele, kodwa uthi: Ngubani ongithintileyo?
A Yeshu gubhabhushiye, “Gani angwashiye?” Bhowe gwaajangulenje kuti jwakwapi ankwashiye. Na a Petili gubhashite, “Mmaajiganya, lugwinjili lwa bhandu lushikunngumbalila nikuntimbilila ndendende!”
46 Kodwa uJesu wathi: Ukhona ongithintileyo; ngoba mina ngazile ukuthi amandla aphumile kimi.
Ikabheje a Yeshu gubhashite, “Apali mundu angwashiye, pabha njikwiipilikana mashili galinjoka.”
47 Kwathi owesifazana ebona ukuthi kafihlakalanga, weza ethuthumela, wawa phambi kwakhe, walandisa phambi kwabantu bonke ukuthi umthinte ngesizatho bani, lokuthi uhle wasila njani.
Bhakongwe bhala bhakabhoneje kuti ikakomboleka kwiiya, gubhailangwiye bhalitetemela kwa jogopa, gubhaatindibhalile a Yeshu. Penepo gubhatalashiye pa bhandu bhowe shiumilo sha kwaakwaya a Yeshu na shibhashite lamywa gwanakamope.
48 Wasesithi kuye: Mana isibindi, ndodakazi, ukholo lwakho lukusindisile; hamba ngokuthula.
A Yeshu gubhaabhalanjile. “Mwanangu ngulupai jako jikulamiye. Ujende kwa ulele.”
49 Esakhuluma, kwafika umuntu evela endlini yomphathi wesinagoge, wathi kuye: Indodakazi yakho isifile; ungamhluphi uMfundisi.
A Yeshu bhakanabhe maliya kubheleketa a Yailo gubhapeleshelwe ntenga kukopoka kungwabho, “Mwali jwenu awile, igala gabhuli kupunda kwaabhuya bhaajiganya?”
50 Kodwa uJesu esizwa, wamphendula, wathi: Ungesabi; kholwa kuphela, njalo izasindiswa.
A Yeshu bhakapilikaneje genego, gubhaabhalanjile a Yailo, “Mmwe nnajogope nkulupalilepe, shalame.”
51 Futhi esengenile endlini, kavumanga ukuthi kungene muntu, ngaphandle kukaPetro loJakobe loJohane, loyise wendodakazi lonina.
Bhakaisheje kumui bhangapinga kujinjila naka mundu juna ikabhe na a Petili na a Yowana na a Yakobho pamo na bhankwetenje mwana jula.
52 Njalo bakhala bonke, beyililela. Kodwa wathi: Lingakhali; kayifanga, kodwa ilele.
Bhandu bhowe pubhalinginji nkunngutila ililo. A Yeshu gubhaabhalanjilenje, “Mpumulanje kuguta, pabha mwana jwangawa ashigonape!”
53 Basebemhleka usulu, besazi ukuthi ifile.
Bhalabhonji gubhaeshilenje, pabha bhamumanyinji kuti mwana awile.
54 Kodwa yena esebakhuphele phandle bonke, wabamba isandla sayo, wamemeza, esithi: Ndodakazi, vuka!
Ikabheje a Yeshu gubhankamwile nkono, nikunshema, “Mwanangu jumuka!”
55 Wasubuya umoya wayo, yasivuka khona lapho; waselaya ukuthi kayiphiwe ukudla.
Gumi gwakwe ukummujilaga, shangupe gwajumwishe. A Yeshu gubhaalugulilenje bhampanganje shalya.
56 Abazali bayo basebemangala kakhulu; kodwa wabalaya ukuthi bangatsheli muntu okwenzakeleyo.
Bhankwetenje gubhakanganigwenje kwa kaje, ikabheje a Yeshu gubhaamulishenje bhanannugulilanje mundu jojowe gene gatendeshe gala.
