1 Njalo wabuya wangena eKapenawume emva kwezinsuku; kwasekuzwakala ukuthi usendlini.
Vwavunyile Kaperinaumu manchuva madebe, yekhapolekhekha ukhuta alembunchenge.
2 Njalo kwahle kwabuthana abanengi, akwazabe kusaba lendawo yabo, ngitsho langasemnyango; wasekhuluma ilizwi kubo.
Avanu vingi vavo walundamine vadegile pakha pa ndyango, pwu u Yiisu akhanchova elimenyu khuvene.
3 Basebesiza kuye, beletha owome umhlubulo, ethwelwe ngabane.
Pwu vakhincha avanu vagegile umunu u ndema; avanu vanne vampembile.
4 Babengelakusondela kuye ngenxa yexuku, bavula uphahla lapho ayekhona, bathi sebelubhobozile behlisa ithala alele kulo owome umhlubulo.
Vwuvalemilye ukhufikha khwa Yiisu ulwakhuva avanu vadegile, pwu vakhatoga khukhituvile vakhakhotola ekhanu upwalepo u Yiisu, vakhisya ekhyagonile undema.
5 Njalo uJesu ebona ukholo lwabo wathi kowome umhlubulo: Ndodana, izono zakho uzithethelelwe.
Vwu alowene ulwidikho lwa vene, u Yiisu akhambula undema, “Nswambago, usyekheliwe imbivi nchakho.”
6 Kodwa abanye bababhali ababehlezi lapho, banakana enhliziyweni zabo, bathi:
Pwu amasimbi vavavatamile pala valekhwe voncha mu numbula, nchevene
7 Ukhulumelani inhlamba enje lo? Ngubani ongathethelela izono ngaphandle koyedwa, uNkulunkulu?
“Yelendakhekhi umunu ukhunchova aga? Idokhela! Veni uveisyekhela imbivi u Nguluve ve nyalusekhelo lwa mbivi?”
8 Njalo khonokho uJesu ekwazi emoyeni wakhe ukuthi babenakana njalo phakathi kwabo, wathi kubo: Linakanelani izinto lezi enhliziyweni zenu?
Pwu u Yiisu akhalumanya mu numbula eya mwene ekhevalekhusaga. Akhavavula, “Khekhi msaga evo mu numbula nchenyo?
9 Yikuphi okulula, ukuthi kowome umhlubulo: Izono zakho uzithethelelwe, kumbe ukuthi: Sukuma, uthathe icansi lakho, uhambe?
Lelekhu lipepe ukhunchova khu munu u ndema, 'Imbivi nchakho nchisyekheliwe ama ukhuta 'ema ugendage wetwekhe eligonelo lwakho?'
10 Kodwa ukuze lazi ukuthi iNdodana yomuntu ilamandla okuthethelela izono emhlabeni (wathi kowome umhlubulo):
Pwu valumanye ukhuta Nswambe va Ntwa alenamakha akgakhusyekhela imbivi mu khilunga, akhambula undema ula,
11 Ngithi kuwe: Sukuma uthathe icansi lakho, uye endlini yakho.
“Nikhukhuvola uve, ema, tola elitefu lyakho, ulutage ukhnjenge vwakho.”
12 Njalo wahle wasukuma, wathatha icansi, waphuma phambi kwabo bonke; baze bamangala bonke, bamdumisa uNkulunkulu, besithi: Kasizange sikubone okunje.
Pwu akhema akhatola elitefu lya mwene, akhakhuma panji khoga vanu, pwu vwoni valekhoswiga valekhuginia u Nguluve, nu khuta “Satugelile, ukhulola imbombo ndeye.”
13 Wasebuya esiya elwandle, ixuku lonke laselisiza kuye, wasebafundisa.
Akhaluta khulukhanji eya nyanja, elipuga lya vanu voni vakhincha khumwene, akhavamanyisya.
14 Wathi esedlula wabona uLevi okaAlfewu ehlezi endlini yokuthelisela, wasesithi kuye: Ngilandela. Wasesukuma wamlandela.
Vwu ilotanincha akhambona u Lawi unswambe va Alfayo atamile upovi songela esongo akhambula ukhuta, “Ung'ongage.” Akhema nu khunkonga.
15 Kwasekusithi ehlezi endlini yakhe, labathelisi abanengi lezoni bahlala ekudleni loJesu labafundi bakhe; ngoba babebanengi, njalo bemlandela.
Usekhe u Yiisu vu ilya mbunchenge vwa Lawi, avasakha songo vingi na vanu avatula nongwa valekhulya nu Yiisu na vakhongi va mwene, ulwakhuva vale vingi vope vakhankonga.
16 Kwathi ababhali labaFarisi, bembona esidla labathelisi lezoni, bathi kubafundi bakhe: Kungani esidla enatha labathelisi lezoni?
Avasimbi vavo vale vapitawe, vovawene ukhuta u Yiisu ilya na vatula nongwa na vasakha songo, vakhavavula avakhongi va mwene, “Khehi ilya na vasakha songo na vatula nongwa.
17 Kwathi uJesu esezwile wathi kubo: Abaphilileyo kabadingi melaphi, kodwa labo abagulayo. Kangizanga ukubiza abalungileyo, kodwa izoni zize ekuphendukeni.
U Yiisu vu apolikhe akhavavula, “Avanu avakhafu emivele gya vene savilonda uvakhovayavela; avanu vavo vatamu vovilonda uvakhovanyavela. Saninchile khukhwilaga avanu avanya lwidikho, ninchile khuvanya mbivi.”
18 Njalo abafundi bakaJohane lababaFarisi babezila ukudla; basebesiza bathi kuye: Kungani abafundi bakaJohane lababaFarisi bezila ukudla, kodwa abafundi bakho bengazili ukudla?
Avakhongi va Yohani na Avapitawe. Pwu avange avanu vakhincha khumwene khukhombola, “Khekhi avakhongi va Yohani na Avapitawe hufunga, na avakhongi vakho hawafungi?
19 UJesu wasesithi kubo: Amadodana endlu yomthimba angazila yini ukudla, umyeni eselawo? Angezile, ingqe ngesikhathi umyeni eselawo;
U Yiisu akhavavula, “Avelangiwe ukhutoliwa udala wiwesya ukhufunga, imisekhe unya khutola udala vuvalenjela, unyaweghi vovalenjela savakhefunge.”
20 kodwa zizafika insuku lapho umyeni azasuswa kuwo, njalo khona azazila ukudla ngalezonsuku.
Amanchuva khikhwincha untola udala vuahenchi we khuvene, pwu mumanchuva ago pwu fifungaga.
21 Futhi kakho othungela isichibi selembu elingakafinyeli esembathweni esidala; uba-ke kungenjalo okubekelweyo kudabuke kiso, okutsha kwesidala, kuqhele ukudabuka.
Asikhuli umunu uveikhona ekhe tambala khya mwenda umpya mumwenda unkholo, apo umwenda ugwa pwu gwitatukha tena, ekhepya khikhega mu mwenda unkolo, pwu yapiva pavakhe uluvuvu.
22 Futhi kakho othela iwayini elitsha emigodleni emidala; uba-ke kungenjalo iwayini elitsha lidabula imigodla, lichitheke iwayini lemigodla yonakale; kodwa iwayini elitsha limele lifakwe emigodleni emitsha.
Asikholi umunu uveivekha uvugimbe uvwunonu mu khidenge khyakhatale, uvugimbe yavukhufibanchula ifidenge, uvugimbe ne ifidenge fyoni pwu fiyaga. Uvungimbe uvwunonu vekha mu khidenge ekhepya.”
23 Kwasekusithi edabula emasimini amabele ngesabatha, abafundi bakhe basebeqala ukukha izikhwebu behamba.
Pa linchova lya sabato u Yiisu alotaninche khufyolo, na avakhongi va mwene vakhatengula ukhipa ulubelege lwa ngano.
24 AbaFarisi basebesithi kuye: Khangela, kungani besenza lokho okungavunyelwayo ngesabatha?
Pwu avapitawe vakhambulo, “Lola khekhi vivomba ekhenu khekhyo ululagelo lubela ukhuvomba elinchuva lya sabato?”
25 Yena wasesithi kubo: Kalizange libale yini uDavida akwenzayo, mhla eswele, elambile, yena lababelaye?
Akhavavola ukhuta, “Samwembile ekya avombile u Daudi ulwa ale ne njala umwene navanu vavo vale paninie nave?
26 Ukuthi wayangena njani endlini kaNkulunkulu esikhathini uAbhiyatha engumpristi omkhulu, wadla izinkwa zokubukiswa ezingavunyelwa ukudliwa ngaphandle kwabapristi, wabanika lababelaye?
Umwa alotile mu mbunjenge vwa Nguluve Abiathari upwu ale ntekhenchi mbakha, akhalya ukate uguve khwe khuvolongolo - gugwa ululagilo lwa benchiche umunu yeyoni ukhulya - gwale wagwa na vatekhenchi - akhavapa voni vavo vale paninie numwene?”
27 Wasesithi kubo: Isabatha lenziwa ngenxa yomuntu, njalo umuntu kenziwanga ngenxa yesabatha;
U Yiisu akhanchovaukuhuta, “E Sabato yavombiwe khutwevanu, sio avanu khu Sabato.
28 ngakho iNdodana yomuntu iyiNkosi leyesabatha.
Pwu, u Nswambe na Adamu ve Ntwa, khu Sabato.”
