UMakho 13
1 Kwathi ephuma ethempelini, omunye wabafundi bakhe wathi kuye: Mfundisi, khangela, amatshe anjani lezakhiwo ezinjani!
Zvino wakati achibuda mutembere, umwe wevadzidzi vake wakati kwaari: Mudzidzisi, tarirai mabwe rudzii, nezvivakwa rudzii!
2 UJesu wasephendula wathi kuye: Uyabona lezizakhiwo ezinkulu yini? Akusoze kutshiywe ilitshe phezu kwelitshe, elingasoze lidilizelwe phansi.
Jesu achipindura akati kwaari: Unoona zvivakwa izvi zvikuru here? Hakungatongosiiwi ibwe pamusoro pebwe, risingatongoputsirwi pasi.
3 Esehlezi entabeni yeMihlwathi maqondana lethempeli, uPetro loJakobe loJohane loAndreya bambuza bebodwa,
Zvino wakati agara pagomo reMiorivhi, pakatarisana netembere, Petro, naJakobho, naJohwani, naAndiriya vakamubvunza vari vega, vachiti:
4 bathi: Sitshele, lezizinto zizakuba nini? Lesibonakaliso siyini lapho sezizapheleliswa lezizinto zonke?
Tiudzei, izvozvi zvichava rinhi? Nechiratidzo chii kana izvozvi zvese zvozadziswa?
5 UJesu ebaphendula waseqala ukuthi: Qaphelani kungabi khona oliduhisayo.
Zvino Jesu achivapindura akatanga kuti: Chenjerai kusava neanokutsausai.
6 Ngoba abanengi bazakuza ngebizo lami, besithi: Mina nginguye; futhi baduhise abanengi.
Nokuti vazhinji vachauya muzita rangu, vachiti: Ndini Kristu, vachatsausa vazhinji.
7 Kodwa nxa lisizwa ngezimpi lamahungahunga ezimpi, lingethuki; ngoba kufanele kwenzeke; kodwa ukuphela kakukabi khona.
Asi kana muchinzwa zvehondo, nerunyerekupe rwehondo, musakanganiswa; nokuti zvinofanira kuitika; asi kuguma kuchigere.
8 Ngoba isizwe sizavukela isizwe, lombuso uvukele umbuso; njalo kuzakuba khona ukuzamazama komhlaba indawo ngendawo, njalo kuzakuba khona indlala lezinhlupheko; lezizinto ziyikuqala kwemihelo.
Nokuti rudzi ruchamukira rudzi; neushe huchamukira ushe; uye kuchava nekudengenyeka kwenyika kunzvimbo dzakasiyana-siyana, uye kuchava nenzara, nematambudziko; izvi kutanga kwekurwadziwa.
9 Kodwa ziqapheleni lina; ngoba bazalinikela emiphakathini, lemasinagogeni lizatshaywa, lizalethwa laphambi kwababusi lamakhosi ngenxa yami, kube yibufakazi kubo.
Zvichenjererei imwi, nokuti vachakukumikidzai kumatare emakurukota, uye mumasinagoge mucharohwa, uye muchauyiswa pamberi pevatongi nemadzimambo nekuda kwangu, chive chapupu kwavari.
10 Kodwa ivangeli limele ukutshunyayelwa kuqala kuzo zonke izizwe.
Uye evhangeri inofanira kutanga kuparidzirwa kumarudzi ese.
11 Kodwa nxa belidonsa belinikela, lingakhathaleli ngaphambili elizakukhuluma, linganakani; kodwa loba yini elizayinikwa ngalelohola, ikhulumeni; ngoba kakusini elikhulumayo, kodwa uMoya oyiNgcwele.
Asi kana vachikuuisai vachikutengesai, musafunganya pakutanga zvamuchataura, uye musafanorangarira, asi chero zvamunenge mapiwa nenguva iyo taurai izvozvo; nokuti hamusi imwi munotaura, asi Mweya Mutsvene.
12 Futhi umfowabo uzanikela umfowabo ekufeni, loyise umntwana; labantwana bazavukela abazali, besebebabulala;
Zvino mukoma achatengesera munin'ina kurufu, nababa mwanakomana; nevana vachamukira vabereki nekuvauraya;
13 njalo lizazondwa yibo bonke ngenxa yebizo lami; kodwa ophikelelayo kuze kube sekupheleni, nguye ozasindiswa.
uye muchavengwa nevese nekuda kwezita rangu; asi anotsungirira kusvikira pakuguma, ndiye achaponeswa.
14 Kodwa nxa libona amanyala encithakalo, akhulunywa nguDaniyeli umprofethi, emi lapho angafanele khona (ofundayo kaqedisise), khona labo abaseJudiya kababalekele ezintabeni;
Zvino kana muchiona nyangadzi yekuparadza yakataurwa naDhanyeri muporofita, imire paisingafaniri (anorava ngaanzwisise), zvino vari muJudhiya ngavatizire kumakomo;
15 lophezu kophahla lwendlu angehleli endlini, angangeni ukuthatha ulutho endlini yakhe;
neari pamusoro pedenga reimba ngaarege kuburukira mumba, kana kupinda kunotora chinhu mumba make.
16 losemasimini angabuyeli emuva, ukuyathatha isembatho sakhe.
Neari mumunda ngaarege kutendeukira shure kunotora nguvo yake.
17 Kodwa maye kwabakhulelweyo labamunyisayo ngalezonsuku!
Asi vane nhamo avo vane mimba neavo vanonwisa nemazuva iwayo!
18 Kodwa khulekani ukuthi ukubaleka kwenu kungabi sebusika.
Asi nyengeterai kuti kutiza kwenyu kurege kuva muchando.
19 Ngoba ngalezonsuku kuzakuba khona ukuhlupheka, okungazanga kube khona kusukela ekuqaleni kokudaliweyo uNkulunkulu akudalayo kuze kube khathesi, lokungasoze kwaba khona.
Nokuti mumazuva iwayo kuchavapo kutambudzika, kwakadaro kusati kwakavapo kubva pakutanga kwezvisikwa Mwari zvaakasika kusvikira zvino, uye hakuchatongovipo.
20 Njalo uba iNkosi ibingazifinyezanga lezonsuku, bekungesindiswe nyama; kodwa ngenxa yabakhethiweyo, ebakhethileyo, izifinyezile insuku.
Dai Ishe asina kuatapudza mazuva, hakuna chero nyama yaiponeswa; asi nekuda kwevasanangurwa, vaakasanangura, wakaatapudza mazuva.
21 Langalesosikhathi nxa umuntu esithi kini: Khangelani, nangu uKristu; kumbe: Khangelani, ulaphayana; lingakholwa;
Uye ipapo kana munhu achiti kwamuri: Tarirai, Kristu pano; kana: Tarirai apo; musatenda;
22 ngoba kuzavuka okristu bamanga labaprofethi bamanga, besebesenza izibonakaliso lezimangaliso, ukuduhisa, nxa kungenzeka, labakhethiweyo.
nokuti vana Kristu venhema nevaporofita venhema vachamuka, vagoratidza zviratidzo nezvishamiso, kuti vatsause, kana zvichibvira, kunyange vasanangurwa.
23 Kodwa qaphelani lina; khangelani, sengilitshelile konke ngaphambili.
Asi chenjerai imwi; tarirai, ndagara ndakuudzai zvinhu zvese.
24 Kodwa ngalezonsuku, emva kwalokhokuhlupheka, ilanga lizafiphazwa, lenyanga kayiyikupha ukukhanya kwayo,
Asi nemazuva iwayo, shure kwekutambudzika ikoko, zuva richasvibiswa, nemwedzi hauchazopi chiedza chawo,
25 lenkanyezi zezulu zizabe zisiwa, lamandla asemazulwini azazanyazanyiswa.
nenyeredzi dzekudenga dzichawa, nemasimba ari kumatenga achazungunuswa.
26 Khona-ke bezabona iNdodana yomuntu isiza emayezini ilamandla amakhulu lenkazimulo,
Ipapo vachaona Mwanakomana wemunhu achiuya mumakore ane simba guru nekubwinya,
27 khona-ke izathuma ingilosi zayo, ibisiqoqa abakhethiweyo bayo emimoyeni yomine, kusukela emkhawulweni womhlaba kuze kube semkhawulweni wezulu.
ipapo achatuma vatumwa vake, vagounganidza pamwe vasanangurwa vake kubva kumhepo ina, kubva kumugumo wenyika kusvikira kumugumo wedenga.
28 Fundani-ke umfanekiso emkhiweni; nxa ugatsha lwawo selusiba buthakathaka, luhlume amahlamvu, liyazi ukuthi ihlobo seliseduze;
Zvino dzidzai mufananidzo kubva pamuonde; kana davi rawo rava ikozvino nyoro, richitunga mashizha, munoziva kuti zhizha raswedera.
29 ngokunjalo lani, nxa libona lezizinto zisenzeka, yazini ukuthi kuseduze kuseminyango.
Saizvozvo imwiwo, kana muchiona zvinhu izvi zvichiitika, zivai kuti zvava pedo wava pamukova.
30 Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Lesisizukulwana asisoze sidlule, zize zenzeke izinto zonke lezi.
Zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwamuri: Zera iri haringatongopfuuri, kusvikira zvinhu izvi zvese zvaitika.
31 Kuzadlula izulu lomhlaba; kodwa amazwi ami awasoze adlule.
Denga nenyika zvichapfuura; asi mashoko angu haangatongopfuuri.
32 Kodwa lolosuku lalelohola kakho owaziyo ngakho, ngitsho lengilosi ezisezulwini, ngitsho leNdodana, ngaphandle kukaBaba.
Asi zvezuva iro neawa, hakuna anoziva, kunyange vatumwa vari kudenga, kunyange Mwanakomana, kunze kwaBaba.
33 Qaphelani, lilinde likhuleke; ngoba kalazi ukuthi isikhathi sinini.
Chenjerai, murinde, munyengetere; nokuti hamuzivi kuti nguva ndeyarinhi.
34 Njengomuntu owasuka elizweni lakibo watshiya indlu yakhe, wanika inceku zakhe amandla, kuleyo laleyo umsebenzi wayo, walaya umlindisango ukuthi alinde.
Semunhu wakafamba rwendo, akasiya imba yake, akapa simba kuvaranda vake, kune umwe neumwe basa rake, akarairawo murindi wemukova kuti arinde.
35 Ngakho lindani; ngoba kalazi ukuthi inkosi yendlu izafika nini, kusihlwa, loba phakathi kobusuku, loba ekukhaleni kweqhude, loba emadabukakusa;
Naizvozvo rindai; nokuti hamuzivi kuti mwene weimba anouya rinhi, manheru, kana pakati peusiku, kana pakurira kwejongwe, kana mangwanani;
36 hlezi ifike ilijume, ilifice lilele.
kuti arege kuuya kamwe kamwe, akakuwanai murere.
37 Lalokhu engikutsho kini ngikutsho kubo bonke: Lindani.
Nezvandinotaura kwamuri, ndinotaurira vese: Rindai.
