< UMathewu 13 >

1 Kwathi ngalolosuku uJesu waphuma endlini wahlala phansi elwandle.
Nezuva iro, Jesu wakabuda mumba akagara pasi parutivi rwegungwa.
2 Kwasekubuthana kuye amaxuku amakhulu, waze wangena emkhunjini wahlala phansi; lexuku lonke lema ekhunjini.
Uye zvaunga zvikuru zvakaungana kwaari, kusvikira apinda muchikepe akagara pasi; nechaunga chese chakamira pamahombekombe.
3 Wasekhuluma labo izinto ezinengi ngemifanekiso, esithi: Khangelani, kwaphuma umhlanyeli ukuyahlanyela.
Ndokutaura zvinhu zvizhinji kwavari nemifananidzo, achiti: Tarirai, mukushi wakabuda kunokusha.
4 Kwathi ekuhlanyeleni kwakhe, enye inhlanyelo yawela eceleni kwendlela; kwasekufika inyoni, zayidla zayiqeda.
Zvino pakukusha kwake, imwe mbeu yakawira kurutivi rwenzira; shiri dzikasvika dzikaidya.
5 Kodwa enye yawela emhlabathini olamatshe, lapho eyayingelamhlabathi omnengi khona; futhi yahle yamila, ngoba kwakungelakutshona komhlabathi;
Imwe ikawira panzvimbo dzine mabwe, payakange isina ivhu zhinji; ikamera pakarepo, nokuti pakange pasina udziku hwevhu.
6 kwathi ekuphumeni kwelanga yahangulwa; njalo ngoba yayingelampande yabuna.
Kuzoti zuva rabuda, yakapiswa, uye nokuti yakange isina mudzi, yakasvava.
7 Kodwa enye yawela emeveni; ameva asekhula ayiminyanisa.
Asi imwe yakawira paminzwa; minzwa ikakura, ikaivhunga.
8 Kodwa enye yawela emhlabathini omuhle, yathela isithelo, enye ikhulu, lenye amatshumi ayisithupha, lenye amatshumi amathathu.
Asi imwe yakawira muvhu rakanaka, ikabereka chibereko, imwe zana, neimwe makumi matanhatu, neimwe makumi matatu.
9 Olendlebe zokuzwa, akezwe.
Ane nzeve dzekunzwa, ngaanzwe.
10 Kwasekufika abafundi bathi kuye: Ukhulumelani kubo ngemifanekiso?
Zvino vadzidzi vakasvika, vakati kwaari: Munotaurirei kwavari nemifananidzo?
11 Wasephendula wathi kubo: Ngoba kuphiwe kini ukwazi imfihlo zombuso wamazulu, kodwa bona kabakunikwanga.
Akapindura akati kwavari: Nokuti kwakapiwa kwamuri kuziva zvakavanzika zveushe hwekumatenga, asi kwavari hakuna kupiwa.
12 Ngoba loba ngubani olakho uzaphiwa, abe lokwengezelelweyo; kodwa lowo ongelakho, uzakwemukwa lalokho alakho.
Nokuti ani nani anazvo achapiwa, uye achava nezvakawanda; asi ani nani asina achatorerwa kunyange nezvaanazvo.
13 Ngakho ngikhuluma labo ngemifanekiso, ngoba bebona kababoni, njalo besizwa kabezwa, futhi kabaqedisisi.
Naizvozvo ndinotaura kwavari nemifananidzo, kuti vachiona havaoni; uye vachinzwa havanzwi, uye havanzwisisi.
14 Kubo besekugcwaliseka isiprofetho sikaIsaya, esithi: Ukuzwa lizakuzwa, kodwa kalisoze liqedisise; lokubona lizabona, kodwa kalisoze libonisise;
Uye kwavari kwakazadziswa chiporofita chaIsaya chinoti: Nekunzwa muchanzwa, asi hamungatongonzwisisi; nekuona muchaona, asi hamungatongoonesesi.
15 ngoba inhliziyo yalababantu seyaba lukhuni, njalo bezwa kanzima ngendlebe, lamehlo abo bawacimezile; hlezi loba nini babone ngamehlo, njalo bezwe ngendlebe, futhi baqedisise ngenhliziyo, njalo baphenduke, besengibasilisa.
Nokuti moyo wevanhu ava wava mukukutu, uye vanonzwa nenzeve nemutsutsururu, nemeso avo vakaatsinzina; zvimwe varege kuona nemeso, uye vanzwe nenzeve, uye vanzwisise nemoyo, vatendeukewo, ndigovaporesa.
16 Kodwa abusisiwe amehlo enu, ngoba ayabona; lendlebe zenu, ngoba ziyezwa.
Asi akaropafadzwa meso enyu, nokuti anoona; nenzeve dzenyu, nokuti dzinonzwa.
17 Ngoba ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Abaprofethi labalungileyo abanengi babethanda ukubona izinto elizibonayo, kodwa kabazibonanga; lokuzwa izinto elizizwayo kodwa kabazizwanga.
Nokuti zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwamuri: Vaporofita nevakarurama vazhinji vakange vachishuva kuona zvamunoona, asi havana kuzviona; nekunzwa zvamunonzwa, asi havana kunzwa.
18 Ngakho lina zwanini umfanekiso womhlanyeli.
Naizvozvo imwi inzwai mufananidzo wemukushi.
19 Kuthi wonke ozwayo ilizwi lombuso kodwa engaqedisisi, omubi afike, ahluthune okuhlanyelwe enhliziyweni yakhe. Lo nguye ohlanyelwe eceleni kwendlela.
Umwe neumwe anonzwa shoko reushe asi asinganzwisisi, wakaipa anosvika ndokubvuta chakakushwa mumoyo make. Uyu ndiye wakakushwa kurutivi rwenzira.
20 Kodwa ohlanyelwe emhlabathini olamatshe, nguye olizwayo ilizwi, ahle alemukele ngentokozo;
Asi wakakushwa panzvimbo dzine mabwe, ndiye anonzwa shoko ndokurigamuchira pakarepo nemufaro;
21 kodwa kalampande phakathi kwakhe, kodwa uhlala isikhathi; kuthi sekufika inkathazo kumbe ukuzingelwa ngenxa yelizwi, ahle akhubeke.
asi haana mudzi maari, asi anogara kwenguva, uye kana dambudziko kana kushushwa zvichiuya nekuda kweshoko, pakarepo anogumburwa.
22 Lohlanyelwe emeveni, nguye olizwayo ilizwi, kodwa impisekelo yalumhlaba lenkohliso yenotho kuyaliminyanisa ilizwi, futhi lingabi lesithelo. (aiōn g165)
Uye wakakushwa paminzwa, ndiye anonzwa shoko, asi kufunganya kwenyika ino nekunyengera kwefuma zvinovhunga shoko, rova risingabereki. (aiōn g165)
23 Kodwa ohlanyelwe emhlabathini omuhle, nguye olizwayo ilizwi aliqedisise; isibili athele izithelo, aveze, omunye ikhulu, lomunye amatshumi ayisithupha, lomunye amatshumi amathathu.
Asi wakakushwa muvhu rakanaka, ndiye anonzwa shoko akanzwisisa, anoberekawo zvibereko, achiita, umwe zana, neumwe makumi matanhatu, neumwe makumi matatu.
24 Wabeka phambi kwabo omunye umfanekiso, esithi: Umbuso wamazulu ufananiswa lomuntu owahlanyela inhlanyelo enhle ensimini yakhe.
Wakaisa pamberi pavo umwe mufananidzo, achiti: Ushe hwekumatenga hunofananidzwa nemunhu wakakusha mbeu yakanaka mumunda make.
25 Kodwa abantu besalele, kwafika isitha sakhe sahlanyela umfaba phakathi kwamabele, sahamba.
Asi vanhu vakati varere, muvengi wake wakauya, akakusha mashawi pakati pezviyo, akaenda.
26 Kodwa kwathi selumilile usungulo lwathela isithelo, lomfaba wasubonakala.
Asi chipande chakati chamera nekubereka chibereko, zvino mashawi akaonekwawo.
27 Zasezisondela inceku zomninimuzi zathi kuye: Nkosi, kawuhlanyelanga yini inhlanyelo enhle ensimini yakho? Pho iwuthethe ngaphi umfaba?
Zvino varanda vemwene weimba vakaswedera vakati kwaari: Ishe, hamuna kukusha mbeu yakanaka mumunda wenyu here? Zvino wawanepi mashawi?
28 Wasesithi kuzo: Umuntu oyisitha ukwenzile lokhu. Inceku zasezisithi kuye: Uthanda ukuthi siyewubutha yini?
Akati kwavari: Muvengi waita izvi. Varanda vakati kwaari: Saka munoda kuti tinoaunganidza here?
29 Kodwa wathi: Hatshi, hlezi, ekubutheni kwenu umfaba, lisiphune amabele kanye lawo.
Asi wakati: Kwete, zvimwe kana muchiunganidza mashawi, mungadzura zviyo nawo.
30 Yekelani kukhule kokubili ndawonye kuze kube yisivuno; langesikhathi sokuvuna ngizakuthi kwabavunayo: Buthani kuqala umfaba, liwubophe izinyanda ukuze liwutshise; kodwa amabele liwabuthele esiphaleni sami.
Regai zvikure pamwe zviri zviviri kusvikira pakukohwa; zvino nenguva yekukohwa ndichati kuvakohwi: Unganidzai pakutanga mashawi, muasunge mwanda kuti muapise; asi muunganidze zviyo mudura rangu.
31 Wasebabekela omunye umfanekiso, esithi: Umbuso wamazulu unjengohlamvu lwemasitedi, aluthatha umuntu waluhlanyela ensimini yakhe;
Wakaisa pamberi pavo umwe mufananidzo achiti: Ushe hwekumatenga hwakafanana netsanga yemasitadha, munhu yaanotora akaidzvara mumunda make.
32 lona kambe luncinyane kulazo zonke inhlamvu; kodwa nxa selukhulile, lukhulu kulezilimo zonke, njalo luba yisihlahla, kuze kufike inyoni zezulu, zakhele engatsheni zaso.
Iyo idiki zvirokwazvo pambeu dzese, asi kana yakura ihuru pamiriwo, inova muti, zvekuti shiri dzekudenga dzinouya dzichivaka matendere pamatavi awo.
33 Wabatshela omunye umfanekiso, wathi: Umbuso wamazulu unjengemvubelo, ayithathayo owesifazana wayifaka emagokokweni amathathu empuphu, kwaze kwabila konke.
Akataura umwe mufananidzo kwavari akati: Ushe hwekumatenga hwakafanana nembiriso, mukadzi yaakatora, akaiisa muzviyero zvitatu zveupfu kusvikira hwese hwaviriswa.
34 Lezizinto zonke uJesu wazikhuluma emaxukwini ngemifanekiso, futhi ngaphandle komfanekiso kakhulumanga kubo;
Izvi zvinhu zvese Jesu wakaudza zvaunga nemifananidzo, uye pasina mufananidzo haana kutaura kwavari;
35 ukuze kugcwaliseke okwakhulunywa ngumprofethi, esithi: Ngizavula umlomo wami ngemifanekiso, ngizaveza izinto ebezifihlakele kusukela ekusekelweni komhlaba.
kuti chizadziswe chakarehwa nemuporofita, achiti: Ndichazarura muromo wangu nemifananidzo; ndichataura zvinhu zvakange zvakavanzika kubva pamavambo enyika.
36 Kwathi uJesu esewayekele amaxuku ahamba wangena endlini; basebesondela kuye abafundi bakhe, besithi: Sichasisele umfanekiso womfaba ensimini.
Zvino Jesu wakati arega zvaunga zvichienda, akapinda mumba; vadzidzi vake vakaswedera kwaari, vachiti: Tidudzirei mufananidzo wemashawi emunda.
37 Wasephendula wathi kubo: Ohlanyela inhlanyelo enhle yiNdodana yomuntu;
Akapindura akati kwavari: Anokusha mbeu yakanaka Mwanakomana wemunhu;
38 lensimu ngumhlaba; lenhlanyelo enhle, yona ingabantwana bombuso; kodwa umfaba ungabantwana bomubi;
uye munda inyika; nembeu yakanaka ndivo vana veushe; asi mashawi vana vewakaipa.
39 lesitha esawuhlanyelayo ngudiyabhola; lesivuno siyikuphela kwesikhathi; labavunayo bazingilosi. (aiōn g165)
Uye muvengi wakaakusha ndidhiabhorosi; uye kukohwa kuguma kwenyika; nevakohwi vatumwa. (aiōn g165)
40 Ngakho-ke njengalokhu umfaba uyabuthwa utshiswe emlilweni, kuzakuba njalo ekupheleni kwalesisikhathi. (aiōn g165)
Naizvozvo mashawi sezvaanounganidzwa achipiswa mumoto, zvichava saizvozvo pakuguma kwenyika ino. (aiōn g165)
41 INdodana yomuntu izathuma ingilosi zayo, besezibutha zikhuphe embusweni wayo konke okukhubekisayo lalabo abenza okubi,
Mwanakomana wemunhu achatuma vatumwa vake, vagounganidza kubva muushe hwake zvigumbuso zvese nevanoita zvakaipa;
42 besezibaphosela esithandweni somlilo; lapho kuzakuba khona ukukhala lokugedla amazinyo.
zvino vachavakandira muvira remoto; ipapo pachava nekuchema nekugeda-geda kwemeno.
43 Khona abalungileyo bezakhanya njengelanga embusweni kaYise. Olendlebe zokuzwa akezwe.
Ipapo vakarurama vachapenya sezuva muushe hwaBaba vavo. Ane nzeve dzekunzwa, ngaanzwe.
44 Futhi umbuso wamazulu unjengempahla eligugu efihliweyo ensimini, okuthi umuntu eseyificile wayifihla; entokozweni yakhe uyahamba, athengise konke alakho, athenge leyonsimu.
Zvekare ushe hwekumatenga hwakafanana nefuma yakavigwa mumunda, inoti kana munhu aiwana, anoiviga; zvino nemufaro wake anoenda akanotengesa zvese zvaanazvo akatenga munda uyo.
45 Futhi umbuso wamazulu unjengomuntu ongumthengi odinga amapharele amahle;
Zvekare ushe hwekumatenga hwakafanana nemushambadzi anotsvaka maparera akanaka;
46 esethole elinye ipharele eliligugu kakhulu, wasuka wathengisa konke alakho, walithenga.
akati awana parera rimwe rine mutengo mukuru, akaenda akanotengesa zvese zvaakange anazvo, akaritenga.
47 Futhi umbuso wamazulu unjengembule elaphoswa olwandle, laselibutha zonke inhlobo;
Zvekare ushe hwekumatenga hwakafanana nemumbure wakakandirwa mugungwa, ukaunganidza marudzi ese ehove.
48 lona, lithe seligcwele, balidonsela ekhunjini, bahlala phansi, babuthela ezilungileyo ezitsheni, kodwa ezimbi bazilahlela ngaphandle.
Iwo kana wazara, vanoukwevera pamahombekombe, ndokugara pasi, vakaunganidzira dzakanaka mumidziyo, asi dzakaipa vakadzirasira kunze.
49 Kuzakuba njalo ekupheleni kwesikhathi; ingilosi zizaphuma, zehlukanise ababi zibasuse phakathi kwabalungileyo, (aiōn g165)
Zvichava saizvozvo pakuguma kwenguva; vatumwa vachabuda, vachaparadzanisa vakaipa kubva pakati pevakarurama, (aiōn g165)
50 besezibaphosela esithandweni somlilo; lapho kuzakuba khona ukukhala lokugedla amazinyo.
uye vachavakandira muvira remoto; ipapo pachava nekuchema nekugeda-geda kwemeno.
51 UJesu wathi kubo: Seliziqedisisile zonke lezizinto yini? Bathi kuye: Yebo, Nkosi.
Jesu akati kwavari: Manzwisisa izvi zvese here? Vakati kwaari: Hongu Ishe.
52 Wasesithi kubo: Ngakho wonke umbhali ofundiselwe umbuso wamazulu unjengomuntu ongumninimuzi, okhupha empahleni yakhe eligugu okutsha lokudala.
Zvino akati kwavari: Naizvozvo munyori umwe neumwe wakadzidziswa zveushe hwekumatenga wakafanana nemunhu, mwene weimba, anobudisa zvinhu zvitsva nezvisharu pafuma yake.
53 Kwasekusithi uJesu eseqedile limifanekiso, wasuka lapho.
Zvino zvakaitika kuti Jesu apedza mifananidzo iyi wakabvapo.
54 Wathi esefikile emzini wakibo wabafundisa esinagogeni labo, baze bamangala bathi: Ivela ngaphi kuyenalo linhlakanipho lalimisebenzi yamandla?
Uye wakati asvika kunyika yekwake akavadzidzisa musinagoge ravo, kusvikira vashamisika vakati: Kunobvepi kune uyu kuchenjera uku nemabasa esimba?
55 Lo kayisiyo yini indodana yombazi? Unina kathiwa nguMariya yini, labafowabo oJakobe loJose loSimoni loJudasi?
Uyu haasi mwanakomana wemuvezi here? Ko mai vake havanzi Maria here, nevanin'ina vake Jakobho naJose naSimoni naJudhasi here?
56 Labodadewabo kabakho yini bonke kithi? Pho, zivela ngaphi zonke lezizinto kuye?
Nehanzvadzi dzake hadzisi nesu dzese here? Ko zvinobvepi kune uyu zvinhu izvozvi zvese?
57 Basebekhubeka ngaye. Kodwa uJesu wathi kubo: Umprofethi kasweli ukudunyiswa ngaphandle kwelizweni lakibo lendlini yakwabo.
Vakagumbuswa naye. Asi Jesu akati kwavari: Muporofita haavi asina kukudzwa kunze kwemunyika yekwake nemumba make.
58 Njalo kenzanga lapho imisebenzi yamandla eminengi, ngenxa yokungakholwa kwabo.
Uye haana kuita mabasa esimba mazhinji ipapo nekuda kwekusatenda kwavo.
