1 Wasesithi kubo: Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Bakhona abanye kwabemiyo lapha, abangasoze bezwe ukufa, baze babone umbuso kaNkulunkulu usufikile ngamandla.
Wakati kulimbabo, “Nchobeni ndati kuli ndinywe, mpubali bamwi banu bayimvwi awa katakoyofwa banjila kabatana bona Bwami bwakujulu bwa-Leza busika kabuli anguzu.
2 Emva kwensuku eziyisithupha uJesu wasethatha uPetro loJakobe loJohane, wasebakhuphulela entabeni ende ebehlukanisa bodwa; waseguqulwa isimo phambi kwabo;
Nikwakayinda mazuba alimusanu alimwi, Jesu wakabweza Pita, Jemusi aJoni wakeenda ambabo atala amulundu, lwakwe ambabo. Mpo wakasanduka kunembo lyabo.
3 lezembatho zakhe zacwazimula, zaba mhlophe nke njengeliqhwa elikhithikileyo, kakulamcoli welembu emhlabeni ongazenza zibe mhlophe kangako.
Zyakusama zyakwe zyakangayima, zyakatubisisya kwiindilila loko kutuba kwiinda chintu chitubisisya munyika chinga chilakonzya kupenda chimwi.
4 Kwasekubonakala kubo uElija eloMozisi, njalo bekhuluma loJesu.
Mpawo Elayija kali aMozesi wakalibonya kulimbabo alimwi wakalikwambula a Jesu.
5 UPetro wasephendula wathi kuJesu: Rabi, kuhle ukuthi sibe lapha; futhi asakhe amadumba amathathu, elinye ngelakho, lelinye ngelikaMozisi, lelinye ngelikaElija.
Pita wakasandula akwamba kuti kuli Jesu, “Muyiisi, nchibotu kuba ano toonse, atuyake zilawu zyotatwe, chimwi chibe chako, chimwi chibe chaMozesi alimwi chimwi chibe cha Eliya”.
6 Ngoba wayengakwazi angakutsho; ngoba babesesaba kakhulu.
(Takalizi zyakwamba, nkambo wakali yowede.)
7 Kwasekufika iyezi labasibekela; kwaba lelizwi elivela eyezini, lisithi: Lo uyiNdodana yami ethandekayo; zwanini yona.
Ijoba lyakasika akubavumba. Mpawo ijwi lyakazwa mujoba,”Ooyu ngomwana wangu ngundiyandisya. Amumuswiilile”.
8 Njalo bahle bathalaza, kababe besabona muntu, kodwa uJesu yedwa elabo.
Aboobo, nibakalanga kumbali, bakabona kakutachikwe muntu akati kabo pesi Jesu alikke.
9 Kwathi besehla entabeni, wabalaya ukuthi bangatsheli muntu izinto abazibonileyo, ize ivuke kwabafileyo iNdodana yomuntu.
Nibakalikuya buseluka kuzwa achilundu, wakabalayilila kuti tabelede kubuzya kufumbwa omwe nzibakabona kusikila Mwana aMuntu akabuke kuzwa kubafu.
10 Njalo bazigcinela lelilizwi, bebuzana ukuthi kutshoni ukuvuka kwabafileyo.
Mpo bakabamba twaambo twabo beni, pesi bakazuwisyana lwabo beni ninzi “Kubuka kuzwa kubafu” zyambaayi.
11 Basebembuza, besithi: Batsholoni ababhali ukuthi uElija ufanele ukufika kuqala?
Bakamubuzya, “Nkambonzi balembi nibakati Eliya nguyelede kutalika kusika?”
12 Wasephendula, wathi kubo: UElija ufika kuqala isibili, abuyisele zonke izinto; njalo kubhalwe njani ngeNdodana yomuntu, ukuthi izahlupheka izinto ezinengi njalo idelelwe.
Wakati kulimbabo, “Eliya ulelede kutalika kusika kuzobambulula zintu zyoonse. Lino nkaambonzi nikulembedwe kuti Mwana waMuntu nelede kufwabisigwa kuzintu zyiingi akunyonganisigwa?
13 Kodwa ngitsho kini ukuthi uElija laye sewafika, basebesenza kuye konke abakuthandayo, njengokulotshiweyo ngaye.
Pesi ndamwambila kuti Eliya wasika, bakachita kufumbwa nzibayanda kuchita alinguwe mbuli mbukulembedwe atala anguwe”.
14 Kwathi efika kubafundi, wabona ixuku elikhulu libahanqile, lababhali bephikisana labo.
Mpawo nibakasika kuli basikwiiya, bakabona makamu abantu kabazyungulikide.
15 Lahle lathi ukumbona ixuku lonke laselimangala, lagijimela kuye lambingelela.
Mpo balembi bakali kukazyanya ambabo. Lino nibakabona Jesu, makamu woonse akagamba nibakamuchijanina bakamujuzya.
16 Wasebabuza ababhali wathi: Liphikisana ngani labo?
Wakabuzya basikwiiya bakwe, “Mulikukazyananzi ambabo?”
17 Omunye wexuku wasephendula wathi: Mfundisi, ngilethe kuwe indodana yami, elomoya oyisimungulu;
Umwi wakalinkamu wakasandula, “Omwiiyi, ndeeta mwana wangu kulinduwe ulamuuya umwiita kuti atambuulipe.
18 kuthi loba ngaphi oyibamba khona, uyidabule; ikhihlize amagwebu, igedle amazinyo ayo, yome qha; njalo ngikhulume labafundi bakho ukuthi bawukhuphe, kodwa behluleka.
Umumana manguzu akumuwunsizya ansi akuzwa kkovu mumulomo, ngawayuma ntwiinyo, akuyuma mubili. Ndakabuzya basikwiiya bako kuti bamugusye asi bakakachilwa”.
19 Wasemphendula wathi: O sizukulwana esingelakholo, koze kube nini ngilani? Koze kube nini ngilibekezelela? Iletheni kimi.
Wakabasandula, “Mazyalane atasyomi, ndakkala andinywe kwachiindi chilibuti? Ndiyomukombelezya kuchiindi chilibuti? Mumweete kuli ndime”
20 Basebeyiletha kuye; kwathi umbona, umoya wahle wayihlukuza; yawela emhlabathini, yazigiqagiqa ikhihliza amagwebu.
Bakamweta mulombe kulinguwe. Kuchindi muuya nwakabona Jesu, mpawo awo lyakamuwisya lyamupa kugwigwima. Mulombe wakawida ansi akuzwa ikkovu mumulomo.
21 Wasebuza uyise wathi: Kulesikhathi esingakanani, lokhu kwenzeka kiyo? Wasesithi: Kusukela ebuntwaneni.
Jesu wakabuzya wisi, “Kwaba chiindi chilibiyeni kazichitikana?” Wisi wakati, “Kuzwa kachili mwanikenike”.
22 Futhi uyiphosele kanengi emlilweni lemanzini, ukuze uyibhubhise; kodwa nxa kukhona ongakwenza, sihawukele, usisize.
Chimuwisizya mumulilo kkana mumanzi akwezya kumujeyakuti kukonzya kuchita kufumbwa, tufwide luzyalo utugwasye”.
23 UJesu wasesithi kuye: Nxa usenelisa ukukholwa, zonke izinto ziyenzeka kokholwayo.
Jesu wakati kulinguwe, “Kuti kazikonzeka zyoonse zintu zilakonzeka kuliyoyo usyoma!”
24 Njalo uyise womntwana wahle wamemeza ngezinyembezi wathi: Ngiyakholwa, Nkosi, siza ukungakholwa kwami.
Mpawo wisi wamwana wakalila akwamba kuti, “Ndimusyomi! kondigwasya akutasyoma kwangu!”
25 Kwathi uJesu esebona ukuthi ixuku ligijima kanyekanye ndawonye, wakhuza umoya ongcolileyo, esithi kuwo: Wena moya oyisimungulu loyisacuthe, mina ngiyakulaya: Phuma kuye, ungabe usangena kuye.
Jesu nakabona makamu kabachijanina, wakatanda myuuya mibi akwaamba kuti, “Nutambuli nutamvwi ndakwambila kuti, zwamulinguwe, utazobi nunjila lubo mulinguwe”.
26 Usumemezile, wayihlukuza kakhulu, waphuma; yasisiba njengofileyo, kwaze kwathi abanengi bathi isifile.
Lyakalila akugwigwimya mulombe akuzwa mulinguwe. Mulombe wakalanga mbuli wakalifwide, biingi bakati,”Ulifwide”.
27 Kodwa uJesu wayibamba ngesandla, wayiphakamisa; yasisukuma.
Pele Jesu wakamubeza aluboko wamunyampula, mulombe wakayimikila.
28 Wathi esengenile endlini, abafundi bakhe bambuza bebodwa bathi: Kungani thina sehlulekile ukuwukhupha?
Jesu nakasika munganda, basikwiiya bakamubuzya chakusisikizya, “Nkambonzi nitwatalitanda?”
29 Wasesithi kubo: Loluhlobo lungeke luphume ngalutho, ngaphandle komkhuleko lokuzila ukudla.
Wakati kulumbabo, “Ezi zyamisyobo oyu tazitandiki pesi akukomba”.
30 Basebesuka lapho badabula eGalili; wayengathandi ukuthi loba ngubani akwazi,
Bakeenda kuzwa awo akwiinda muGalilaya. Takalikuyanda kufumbwa kuti bazibe nkubakabede,
31 ngoba wayefundisa abafundi bakhe, esithi kubo: INdodana yomuntu inikelwa ezandleni zabantu, njalo bazayibulala; kuthi isibulewe, izavuka ngosuku lwesithathu.
nakalikuyiisya basikwiiya bakwe. Wakati kulimbabo, “Mwanamuntu uyopendekezegwa mumaboko amuntu, alimwi bayomujeya. Natayobikwe kulufu, nikutakayinde mazuba atatu uyobuka kuzwa kubafu.
32 Kodwa kabaqedisisanga lumutsho, basebesesaba ukumbuza.
Pesi tebakazimvwisisisya pe nzyakali kwamba, alimwi bakalikuyowa kumubuzya.
33 Wasefika eKapenawume. Kwathi esendlini wababuza wathi: Beliphikisana ngani endleleni?
Mpawo nibakasika kuKkapenamu. Mpawo nakanjila munganda wakababuzya, Mwalikwambanzi munzila?”
34 Kodwa bathula; ngoba endleleni babephikisene ngokuthi ngubani omkhulu.
Pesi bakawumuna. Mbulikuti bakalibuya bukazyanya awumwi amwenzinyina kabali munzila atala akuti ngwani mupati.
35 Wasehlala phansi wabiza abalitshumi lambili, wathi kubo: Uba umuntu ethanda ukuba ngowokuqala, uzakuba ngowokucina kubo bonke, lesisebenzi sabo bonke.
Nakakkala ansi, wakayita basikwiiya bakwe bali kkumi ababili kabali boonse alimwi wakati kulimbabo, “Na kuli uyanda kuba wakusanguna, welede kuba wakumaninsizya kuli boonse akubalanda boonse”.
36 Wasethatha umntwana omncane, wammisa phakathi kwabo; wamgona, wathi kubo:
Wakabweza mwana munini wakamibikka akati kabo. Wakamubweza akumubikka amakwiko akwe alimwi wakati kulimbabo,
37 Loba ngubani owemukela omunye wabantwana abancane abanje ebizweni lami, wemukela mina; njalo loba ngubani owemukela mina, kemukeli mina, kodwa yena ongithumileyo.
“Kufumbwa utambula mwana oyu muzina lyangu watambula ndime, kufumbwa oyo unditambula tatambuli ndime pesi utambula oyo wakandituma”.
38 UJohane wasemphendula, wathi: Mfundisi, sabona omunye ongasilandeliyo ekhupha amadimoni ngebizo lakho; sasesimenqabela, ngoba engasilandeli.
Joni wakati, “Muyiisi, twabona umwi katanda badayimona munzina lyako alimwi twamukasya, nkaambo tatutobeli pe”.
39 Kodwa uJesu wathi: Lingamenqabeli; ngoba kakho owenza umsebenzi wamandla ebizweni lami, njalo olamandla okukhuluma kubi ngami masinyane;
Pesi Jesu wakati, “Mutamukasyi, mbulikuti takwe utakachite milimu mipati muzina lyangu alimwi mbulikuzwa awo bakambule kufumbwa zili atala andime.
40 ngoba ongamelani lathi, ungowethu.
Kufumbwa utakazyani andiswe ngwesu.
41 Ngoba loba ngubani ozalinathisa inkezo yamanzi ngebizo lami, ngoba lingabakaKristu, ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Kasoze alahlekelwa ngumvuzo wakhe.
Kufumbwa ukupa nkomesi yamanzi kuti unywe muzina lyangu nkambo uzwa kwaKilisito, nchobeni ndamwambila kuti, takoyoyibulikilwa impindu yakwe.
42 Futhi loba ngubani okhubekisa omunye walaba abancinyane abakholwa kimi, kungcono kuye ukuthi ilitshe lokuchola ligaxwe entanyeni yakhe, abesephoselwa olwandle.
Kufumbwa uchita banikenike bandisyoma kui bae, zinoli zibotu kulinguwe kuti abeze ibwe asungililwe munsingo yakwe alimwi awalwe mulwizi.
43 Njalo uba isandla sakho sikukhubekisa, siqume; kungcono kuwe ukungena ekuphileni uyingini, kulokuthi ulezandla ezimbili usuke uye esihogweni, emlilweni ongacitshekiyo, (Geenna g1067)
Naa kuboko kwako kwakubisizya, kudunsule. Nchibotu kunjila mubwami bwakubotelwa kwiinda kuba amaboko abili alimwi wakuwida mubbibi lyamulilo, kumulilo utazimi. (Geenna g1067)
44 lapho impethu yabo engafi khona, lomlilo ongacitshi khona.
Munchali 44mutabikkilizidwe mu ULB. Amba kuti ichikoye chabo tachikoyofwa, alimwi mulilo tukoyozimwa.
45 Njalo uba unyawo lwakho lukukhubekisa, luqume; kungcono kuwe ukungena ekuphileni uyisiqhwala, kulokuthi ulenyawo ezimbili uphoselwe esihogweni, emlilweni ongacitshekiyo, (Geenna g1067)
Na kuulu kwako kwakuchita kuti ubisye, kudunsule. Nchibotu kunjila mubuumi bwakubotelwa kuli chilema kwiinda kuba amawulu abili alimwi wakuwida mubbibi lyamulilo. (Geenna g1067)
46 lapho impethu yabo engafi khona, lomlilo ongacitshi khona.
Munchali 46 tabikkidwe pe mu ULB. Amba kuti ichikonye chabo tachikoyofwa, alimwi mulilo tukoyozimwa.
47 Njalo uba ilihlo lakho likukhubekisa, likhuphe; kungcono kuwe ukungena embusweni kaNkulunkulu ulelihlo elilodwa, kulokuthi ulamehlo amabili uphoselwe esihogweni somlilo, (Geenna g1067)
Na liso lyako lyakuchita kuti ubisye, ligusye. Nchibotu kunjila mubwami bwakujulu aliso limwi kwiinda kuba ameso abili wakuwisigilwa mubbibi lyamulilo, (Geenna g1067)
48 lapho impethu yabo engafi khona, lomlilo ongacitshi khona.
kutayofwa kwachikonye chabo, mulilo tukoyozima.
49 Ngoba wonke uzatshwaywa ngomlilo; njalo wonke umhlatshelo uzatshwaywa ngetshwayi.
Nkaambo moonse muyolungwa amunyo wamulilo.
50 Itshwayi lihle; kodwa uba itshwayi lingelabutshwayi, lizalivuselela ngani? Banini letshwayi phakathi kwenu, njalo lihlalisane ngokuthula.
Munyo mubotu, pesi kuti munyo wasapuka, ulachitwa biyeni kuti ube munyo lubo? Amube munyo nywebo nobeni, alimwi mube alumuno kuli umwi awumwi”.
