UMakho 6
1 Wasesuka lapho, waya emzini wakibo; abafundi bakhe basebemlandela.
Yesu n’ava mu kitundu ekyo n’abayigirizwa be n’addayo mu kibuga ky’ewaabwe.
2 Sekufike isabatha, waqala ukufundisa esinagogeni; labanengi abamuzwayo bamangala, bathi: Zivela ngaphi lezizinto kuye? Njalo yinhlakanipho bani ayinikiweyo, ukuthi lalimisebenzi yamandla enje yenziwe ngezandla zakhe?
Olunaku lwa Ssabbiiti bwe lwatuuka n’agenda mu kkuŋŋaaniro okuyigiriza, abantu bangi abaaliwo ne beewuunya nnyo bwe baawulira bw’ayigiriza, ne bawuniikirira ne beebuuza nti, “Bino byonna yabiyigira wa era magezi ga ngeri ki ono ge yaweebwa n’eby’amagero ebyenkanidde wano by’akola?”
3 Lo kayisuye umbazi yini, indodana kaMariya, lomfowabo kaJakobe loJose loJudasi loSimoni? Labodadewabo kabakho yini lapha kithi? Basebekhubeka ngaye.
Ne beebuuza nti, “Ono si ye mwana w’omubazzi? Maliyamu si ye nnyina, ne baganda be si be ba Yakobo, ne Yose, ne Yuda ne Simooni? Ne bannyina tetubeera nabo kuno?” Ekyo ne kibatawanya mu mutima.
4 Kodwa uJesu wathi kubo: Umprofethi kasweli ukudunyiswa, ngaphandle kwelizweni lakibo, lezihlotsheni zakhe lendlini yakwabo.
Yesu n’abagamba nti, “Nnabbi aweebwa ekitiibwa buli wantu okuggyako mu nsi y’ewaabwe ne mu bantu be ne mu maka ge waabwe.”
5 Futhi wayengelakho ukwenza lowodwa umsebenzi wamandla lapho, ngaphandle kokubeka izandla phezu kwabagulayo abalutshwana, wabasilisa.
Naye teyakolerayo byamagero bingi okuggyako abalwadde abatonotono be yakwatako n’abawonya.
6 Wasemangala ngokungakholwa kwabo. Wabhodabhoda imizana efundisa.
N’awuniikirira nnyo okulaba nga tebamukkirizza. Awo n’agenda ng’ayigiriza mu byalo ebiriraanyeewo.
7 Wasebizela kuye abalitshumi lambili, waqala ukubathuma ngababili ngababili, wabanika amandla phezu kwabomoya abangcolileyo.
Awo Yesu n’ayita abayigirizwa be ekkumi n’ababiri n’abatuma babiri babiri era n’abawa obuyinza okugoba emyoyo emibi ku bantu.
8 Wabalaya ukuthi bangaphathi lutho lwendlela, ngaphandle kodondolo kuphela; lasikhwama, lasinkwa, lamali ezwezweni;
N’abakuutira obutatwala kantu konna okuggyako omuggo ogw’okutambuza gwokka nti, “Temutwala mmere wadde akagugu newaakubadde ensimbi mu lukoba.
9 kodwa bafake amanyathela; futhi bangembathi izembatho ezimbili.
Mwambale engatto naye temutwala kkanzu yakubiri.”
10 Wasesithi kubo: Lapho elingena khona endlini, hlalani kiyo lize liphume khona.
N’abagamba nti, “Era buli nnyumba gye munaayingirangamu musulanga omwo okutuusa lwe muliva mu kibuga ekyo.
11 Njalo loba ngobani abangayikulemukela, kumbe balizwe, nxa liphuma lapho, thintithani uthuli olungaphansi kwenyawo zenu kube yibufakazi kubo. Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Kuzakuba lula eSodoma kumbe laseGomora ngosuku lwesigwebo, kulakulowomuzi.
Era bwe mutuukanga mu kifo ne batabaaniriza yadde okubawuliriza, bwe mubanga muvaayo mukunkumuliranga mu kifo omwo enfuufu ey’omu bigere byammwe, okuba akabonero gye bali.”
12 Sebephumile batshumayela ukuthi baphenduke;
Awo abayigirizwa ne bagenda nga babuulira buli muntu nti, “Mwenenye.”
13 bakhupha amadimoni amanengi, bagcoba abanengi abagulayo ngamagcobo babasilisa.
Ne bagoba baddayimooni bangi ku bantu, ne basiiga abalwadde amafuta ne babawonya.
14 Inkosi uHerodi wasesizwa ngakho, ngoba ibizo lakhe laba sobala, wasesithi: UJohane owabhabhathizayo uvukile kwabafileyo, futhi kungakho lamandla esebenza kuye.
Awo Kabaka Kerode n’awulira ettutumu lya Yesu, kubanga yali ayogerwako wonna olw’ebyamagero bye yakolanga. Naye Kerode n’alowooza nti Yokaana Omubatiza y’azuukidde, kubanga abantu baayogeranga nti, “Tewali muntu mulala ayinza kukola byamagero nga bino.”
15 Abanye bathi: UnguElija; labanye bathi: Ungumprofethi, kumbe unjengomunye wabaprofethi.
Naye abalala ne balowooza nti, “Eriya.” N’abalala ne bagamba nti, “Nnabbi ng’omu ku bannabbi ab’edda.”
16 Kodwa uHerodi esezwile wathi: Lo nguJohane, mina engamquma ikhanda; yena uvukile kwabafileyo.
Kerode bwe yabiwulira ye n’agamba nti, “Oyo Yokaana, omusajja gwe natemako omutwe, y’azuukide mu bafu.”
17 Ngoba yena uHerodi wayethumele wambamba uJohane, wambopha entolongweni, ngenxa kaHerodiyasi umkaFiliphu umfowabo, ngoba wayemthethe.
Kubanga Kerode yennyini ye yatuma abaserikale be ne bakwata Yokaana Omubatiza ne bamuggalira mu kkomera, olwa Kerudiya muka muganda we Firipo, Kerode gwe yali awasizza.
18 Ngoba uJohane wayethe kuHerodi: Kawuvunyelwa ukuba lomkamfowenu.
Yokaana yagamba Kerode nti, “Si kituufu okutwala Kerudiya muka muganda wo Firipo.”
19 UHerodiyasi wasembambela inhliziyo, wafuna ukumbulala; kodwa kenelisanga;
Kerudiya n’ayagala okutta Yokaana yeesasuze, naye nga tayinza.
20 ngoba uHerodi wayemesaba uJohane, esazi ukuthi uyindoda elungileyo lengcwele, wamlondoloza; lalapho emuzwa, wenza izinto ezinengi, wamuzwa ngokuthokoza.
Kubanga Kerode yatyanga Yokaana Omubatiza, ng’amuwa ekitiibwa ng’omuntu wa Katonda ow’amazima era omutukuvu, era ng’amukuuma. Era Kerode bwe yayogeranga ne Yokaana ng’emmeeme ye tetereera, so nga yali ayagala nnyo okuwuliriza by’amugamba.
21 Kwathi selufikile usuku oluhle, uHerodi ngelanga lakhe lokuzalwa wenzela izikhulu zakhe lenduna zenkulungwane labalisa beGalili ukudla kwantambama,
Naye olwali olwo, Kabaka Kerode n’afumba embaga ku lunaku lw’amazaalibwa ge, n’ayita abakungu be n’abakulu b’abaserikale n’abaami bonna abatutumufu mu Ggaliraaya.
22 kwathi indodakazi kaHerodiyasi lo isingenile yagida, yamkholisa uHerodi lalabo ababehlezi ekudleni laye, inkosi yathi entombini: Cela kimi loba kuyini okuthandayo, njalo ngizakupha;
Awo muwala wa Kerudiya yennyini n’ajja n’azina nnyo, n’asanyusa Kerode n’abagenyi be yali atudde nabo ku mbaga. Awo Kabaka Kerode n’agamba omuwala nti, “Nsaba kyonna ky’oyagala nange nnaakikuwa.”
23 wafunga kuyo esithi: Loba kuyini ongakucela kimi, ngizakunika, kuze kube yingxenye yombuso wami.
Era n’ayongera okumulayirira nti, “Kyonna kyonna ky’ononsaba yadde ekitundu ky’obwakabaka bwange nnaakikuwa!”
24 Yasiphuma isithi kunina: Ngizacelani? Yena wasesithi: Ikhanda likaJohane uMbhabhathizi.
Awo omuwala n’afuluma ne yeebuuza ku nnyina. Nnyina n’amugamba nti, “Saba omutwe gwa Yokaana Omubatiza!”
25 Njalo yahle yangena enkosini ngokuphangisa, yacela, yathi: Ngifuna ukuthi unginike khathesinje emganwini ikhanda likaJohane uMbhabhathizi.
Omuwala n’addayo mangu eri kabaka n’amusaba nti, “Njagala ompe kaakano, ku ssowaani, omutwe gwa Yokaana Omubatiza!”
26 Inkosi yasidabuka kakhulu, kodwa ngenxa yezifungo langalabo ababehlezi layo ekudleni kayithandanga ukuyilandulela.
Kino ne kinakuwaza nnyo kabaka, n’anyiikaala nnyo, kyokka olwokubanga yali amaze okulayira n’okweyama ng’abagenyi be bawulira, n’atya okumenya obweyamo bwe.
27 Njalo inkosi yahle yathuma ibutho yalaya ukuthi kulethwe ikhanda lakhe. Wasehamba wamquma ikhanda entolongweni,
Bw’atyo n’ayita omuserikale we, n’amulagira agende aleete omutwe gwa Yokaana. Omuserikale n’agenda mu kkomera, n’atemako Yokaana omutwe,
28 waletha ikhanda lakhe ngomganu, walinika intombi; intombi yasilinika unina.
n’aguleeteera ku lutiba, n’aguwa omuwala n’omuwala n’agutwalira nnyina.
29 Kwathi abafundi bakhe sebezwile beza, bathatha isidumbu sakhe, basibeka engcwabeni.
Abayigirizwa ba Yokaana bwe baategeera ne bajja ne baggyawo omulambo gwe, ne bagutwala ne baguziika.
30 Abaphostoli basebebuthana kuJesu, bambikela konke, lababekwenzile kanye lababekufundisile.
Awo abatume ne bakomawo awali Yesu ne bamunnyonnyola byonna bye baakola ne bye baayigiriza.
31 Wasesithi kubo: Wozani lina lodwa endaweni eyinkangala, liphumule kancinyane. Ngoba babebanengi abafikayo labahambayo, futhi bengelathuba lokudla.
N’abagamba nti, “Mujje tugende mu kifo eteri bantu tuwummuleko.” Kubanga baali babuliddwa n’akaseera ak’okuliiramu ku mmere olw’abantu abangi abajjanga gye bali; bano baabanga baakavaawo ate ng’abalala bajja.
32 Bakhuphuka ngomkhumbi baya endaweni eyinkangala bebodwa.
Bwe batyo ne balinnya mu lyato ne bagenda mu kifo ekiwolerevu eteri bantu.
33 Amaxuku asebabona besuka, labanengi bamazi, bagijimela khona kanyekanye ngenyawo bevela emizini yonke, basebebandulela, bahlangana kuye.
Naye abantu bangi abaava mu bibuga bingi ne babalaba nga bagenda ne bategeera gye baali bagenda ne badduka okwetooloola ku lukalu ne babeesookayo.
34 Kwathi uJesu esephuma wabona ixuku elikhulu, waba lesihelo ngabo, ngoba babenjengezimvu ezingelamelusi; waseqala ukubafundisa izinto ezinengi.
Yesu bwe yava mu lyato n’alaba ekibiina ky’abantu bangi abaali bakuŋŋaanye n’abasaasira nga bali ng’endiga ezitalina musumba. Awo n’atandika okubayigiriza ebintu bingi.
35 Kwathi isikhathi sesihambile, abafundi bakhe beza kuye bathi: Lindawo iyinkangala, lesikhathi sesihambile;
Awo obudde bwe bwawungeera abayigirizwa ne bajja awali Yesu ne bamugamba nti, “Ekifo kino kya ddungu ate n’obudde buwungedde.
36 bayekele, ukuze baye ezigabeni ezizingelezeleyo lemizaneni bazithengele izinkwa; ngoba bengelalutho abangaludla.
Abantu basiibule bagende beegulire emmere mu byalo ne mu bibuga ebiriraanye wano.”
37 Wasephendula wathi kubo: Banikeni lina ukuthi badle. Basebesithi kuye: Sihambe yini siyethenga izinkwa ngabodenariyo abangamakhulu amabili, sibaphe badle?
Naye Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Mmwe mubawe ekyokulya.” Ne bamubuuza nti, “Tugende tubagulire emmere nga ya dinaali ebikumi bibiri, tugibawe balye?”
38 Wasesithi kubo: Lilezinkwa ezingaki? Hambani liyebona. Sebesazi bathi: Zinhlanu, lenhlanzi ezimbili.
Yesu n’ababuuza nti, “Mulina emigaati emeka? Mugende mulabe.” Bwe baamala okwetegereza ne bamugamba nti, “Waliwo emigaati etaano n’ebyennyanja bibiri.”
39 Wasebalaya ukuthi babahlalise bonke phansi ngezigaba ngezigaba etshanini obuluhlaza.
Awo Yesu n’alagira abantu bonna batuule wansi ku muddo mu bibinja.
40 Basebehlala phansi ngamaviyo ngamaviyo, ngamakhulu langamatshumi amahlanu.
Awo ne batuula mu bibinja, eby’abantu ataano ataano, awalala kikumi kikumi.
41 Wasethatha izinkwa ezinhlanu lenhlanzi ezimbili, ekhangela phezulu ezulwini, wabonga, wazihlephula izinkwa, wazinika abafundi bakhe ukuthi bazibeke phambi kwabo; lenhlanzi ezimbili wazabela bonke.
Yesu n’atoola emigaati etaano n’ebyennyanja ebibiri n’ayimusa amaaso ge eri eggulu ne yeebaza Katonda. N’amenyaamenya emigaati n’ebyennyanja ebibiri, n’abiwa abayigirizwa be ne bagabula abantu bonna ne babuna.
42 Basebesidla bonke, basutha.
Bonna ne balya ne bakkuta.
43 Basebedobha izitsha ezilitshumi lambili ezagcwala imvuthu ezazisele, lokuseleyo kwenhlanzi.
Ne bakuŋŋaanya obukunkumuka bw’emigaati n’obw’ebyennyanja ebisero kkumi na bibiri.
44 Lalabo abadlayo izinkwa, babengaba ngamadoda azinkulungwane ezinhlanu.
Abasajja abaalya emigaati baali enkumi ttaano.
45 Njalo wahle wacindezela abafundi bakhe ukuthi bangene emkhunjini, njalo bamqalele ukuya ngaphetsheya eBhethisayida, yena esayekela ixuku lihamba.
Amangwago Yesu n’alagira abayigirizwa be basaabale mu lyato bawunguke bagende emitala w’ennyanja e Besusayida abasange eyo, ng’amaze okusiibula ebibiina by’abantu.
46 Esebavalelisile, wasuka waya entabeni ukuyakhuleka.
Bwe yamala okubasiibula n’alinnya ku lusozi okusaba.
47 Sekuhlwile, umkhumbi wawuphakathi kolwandle, futhi yena wayeyedwa emhlabathini.
Awo obudde bwe bwawungeera, Yesu ng’asigadde yekka ku lukalu,
48 Wababona behlupheka kakhulu ekugwedleni, ngoba umoya wawuphambene labo, wasesiza kubo sokungaba yisikhathi somlindo wesine wobusuku, ehamba phezu kolwandle; wasefuna ukubadlula.
n’abalengera nga bategana n’eryato kubanga waaliwo omuyaga mungi n’amayengo amagulumivu ebyabafuluma mu maaso gye baali balaga. Awo obudde bwali bunaatera okukya nga ku ssaawa mwenda ez’ekiro, n’ajja gye bali ng’atambulira ku mazzi, n’aba ng’ayagala okubayitako.
49 Sebembonile ehamba phezu kolwandle, basebecabanga ukuthi lithonga, bakhala kakhulu;
Naye bwe baamulaba ng’atambulira ku nnyanja ne baleekaana nnyo, bonna, nga batidde, kubanga baalowooza nti muzimu,
50 ngoba bambona bonke, bethuka. Kodwa wahle wakhuluma labo, wathi kubo: Manini isibindi; yimi, lingesabi.
kubanga bonna baamulaba ne batya. Naye n’ayanguwa okwogera nabo, n’abagamba nti, “Mugume omwoyo. Ye Nze, temutya.”
51 Wasesenyukela kubo emkhunjini, umoya wasuthula; basebesanganiseka kakhulu okwedlula amalawulo ngaphakathi, bamangala.
Awo n’alinnya mu lyato, omuyaga ne gulekeraawo okukunta! Abayigirizwa be ne bawuniikirira nnyo.
52 Ngoba babengaqedisisanga ngezinkwa; ngoba inhliziyo yabo yayilukhuni.
Tebategeera kyamagero eky’emigaati kubanga emitima gyabwe gyali mikakanyavu.
53 Kwathi sebechaphile bafika elizweni leGenesaretha, babophela umkhumbi ekhunjini.
Awo eryato lyabwe bwe lyagoba ku lubalama lw’ennyanja Genesaleeti,
54 Bathi sebephumile emkhunjini, bahle bamazi,
ne bavaamu. Abantu bwe balaba Yesu, amangwago ne bamutegeererawo.
55 njalo bagijimela kuso sonke lesosigaba esizingelezeleyo, baqala ukubhoda bethwala abagulayo ngamathala bebasa lapho abebesizwa ukuthi ukhona.
Ne babuna mu bitundu ebyali biriraanyeewo nga bamuleetera abalwadde nga basituliddwa ku butanda.
56 Njalo loba ngaphi angena khona emizaneni loba emizini, loba emaphandleni, babeka abagulayo emidangeni, bamncenga ukuthi bathinte umphetho wesembatho sakhe nje; njalo bonke abamthintayo basindiswa.
Wonna wonna gye yagendanga, mu byalo, mu bibuga, mu butale ne ku nguudo ne baleeta abalwadde ne bamwegayirira waakiri bakwateko bukwasi ku lukugiro lw’ekyambalo kye. Era bonna abaakikwatako ne bawona.
