1 Kwasekufika kuJesu ababhali labaFarisi ababevela eJerusalema, bathi:
Linu Vafalisi ni bañoli bamwi babezi kwa Jesu kuzwa Jerusalema. Nivati,
2 Kungani abafundi bakho besephula isiko labadala? Ngoba kabagezi izandla zabo, nxa besidla isinkwa.
“Chinzi varutwana bako havaluta chisiyakulu chabatanzi? Mukuti kabashanji mayanza avo habalya.”
3 Kodwa waphendula wathi kubo: Lani-ke kungani lisephula umlayo kaNkulunkulu ngenxa yesiko lenu?
Jesu abetavi mi navawambila kuti, linu inwe - hamurwisa idaezo ze Reeza ivaka lyachisiyakulu chenu chinzi?
4 Ngoba uNkulunkulu walaya, wathi: Hlonipha uyihlo lonyoko; lokuthi: Othuka uyise kumbe unina kumele afe lokufa;
Mukuti Ireeza avati, 'Uhe ikute kweso ni nyoko,' mi 'Iye yowamba bubilala kwesi ni nyina, ikumbya kafwe.'
5 kodwa lina lithi: Loba ngubani othi kuyise kumbe kunina: Kungumnikelo, loba yini evela kimi ingakusiza,
Kono mute kuti, 'Yense yeti nati kubesi ni banyina, “Ituso yonse yimubali kuyelele kuwana kwangu linu chili impo iya kweReeza,”
6 njalo engasoze amhloniphe uyise kumbe unina; ngalokho lenza umlayo kaNkulunkulu ube yize ngenxa yesiko lenu.
uzo muntu kayelele kukuteka besi. Chenzila yina bulyo wazimbuluka inzwi lye Reeza chevaka lachisayakulu chenu.
7 Bazenzisi, uIsaya waprofetha kuhle ngani, esithi:
Inwe balihele, Isaya avapolofiti chakusima kazenu havati,
8 Lababantu basondela kimi ngomlomo wabo, langendebe bangidumise; kodwa inhliziyo yabo ikhatshana lami.
Aba bantu banikuteka chatuholo twavo, kono inkulo zabo zina kule name.
9 Kodwa bangikhonza ngeze, befundisa izimfundiso eziyimilayo yabantu.
Banilapela ni basawani chimwi, kakuli itumelo ivaruta izimene hetaelo zamuntu.”
10 Esebizele kuye ixuku, wathi kilo: Lalelani futhi liqedisise.
Linu chalisupila ikunga ni kuliwambila kuti, “Mutekeleze ni kuzuwisisa -
11 Kakusikho okungena emlonyeni okungcolisa umuntu; kodwa okuphuma emlonyeni, yikho okungcolisa umuntu.
Kakwina chinjila mukaholo chiizuza muntu ikwe. Muchibaka chobulyo, chizwa mukaholo, njecho chiizuza muntu ikwe.”
12 Abafundi bakhe basebesondela bathi kuye: Uyazi yini ukuthi abaFarisi bathe ukulizwa lelilizwi bakhubeka?
Linu barutwana babezi ni kuwambila Jesu, “Kana wizi kuti bafalisi babanyelwa habazuwa ichi chiwambo?”
13 Kodwa waphendula wathi: Sonke isihlahlakazana, uBaba osezulwini angasihlanyelanga, sizasitshunwa.
Jesu avetavi mi nati, “Chimenantu chonse chasanaavabyali Tayo wakwiwulu kachinyukulwe ni kusohelwa kunze. Mubasiye bobona, bahitili bazihofu.
14 Bayekeleni; bangabakhokheli beziphofu abayiziphofu; njalo nxa isiphofu sikhokhela isiphofu, zizawela emgodini zombili.
Mi heva muhofu nahitila muhofu kunine, vonse kabawile mwilindi.”
15 UPetro wasephendula wathi kuye: Sichasisele lumfanekiso.
Pitorosi avetabi mi nati kwa Jesu, “Tutolokele iyi nguli.”
16 UJesu wasesithi: Kanti lani lisengabangelakuqedisisa?
Jesu nati, “nanwe muchiikele nimusena inkutwisiso?
17 Lilokhe lingaqedisisi yini, ukuthi konke okungena emlonyeni kuya esiswini, futhi kuyelahlelwa ngaphandle?
Inwe kamuboni kuti chonse chiinjila mukaholo chihita kuya mwibumu mi linu chikazwa kuya muchimbuzi?”
18 Kodwa izinto eziphuma emlonyeni zivela enhliziyweni; lezi ziyamngcolisa umuntu.
Kono zintu zizwa mukaholo zizwa kunkulo. Nji zintu ziizuza muntu ikwe.
19 Ngoba enhliziyweni kuvela imicabango emibi, ukubulala, ubufebe, ukuphinga, ukweba, ukufakaza amanga, ukuhlambaza;
Kakuli munkulo kuzwa mihupulo mibilala, vwihai, bubuki, zakusomana, busa, kupaka zamapa, ni kutukana.
20 yizo lezozinto ezimngcolisayo umuntu; kodwa ukudla ngezandla ezingagezwanga kakumngcolisi umuntu.
Ezi nji zintu ziizuza muntu ikwe. Kono kulya ni mayanza asasambite kakwiizuzi muntu ikwe.”
21 UJesu wasesuka lapho, waya kungxenye zeTire lezeSidoni.
Linu Jesu chayenda kuzwa mwecho chibaka kulikungula ni kuya muzikiliti zamileñi iba Tire ni Sidoni.
22 Njalo khangela, owesifazana ongumKhanani ovela kuleyomikhawulo, wakhala kuye esithi: Nkosi, Ndodana kaDavida, akungihawukele! Indodakazi yami ihlaselwe kubi lidimoni.
Mi hamulole, mwanakazi wa Mukanana abezi kuzwa mwechina chikiliti. Mi chahuweleza mi nichati, “Nifwile inse, Simwine, mwana a Daafita, mwanangu wamukazana ukatezwe madimona.”
23 Kodwa kamphendulanga ngalizwi. Basebesondela kuye abafundi bakhe bamncenga, bathi: Mxotshe, ngoba uyakhala ngemva kwethu.
Kono Jesu kana abamwitabi nanga inzwi. Barutwana bakwe babezi ni kumukumbila, ni bati, “Muhindikile kuna, kakuli utuchitala ilata.”
24 Kodwa waphendula wathi: Kangithunywanga, ngaphandle kuzo izimvu ezilahlekileyo zendlu yakoIsrayeli.
Kono Jesu abetabi mi nati, “Kana nibatumwa kozuhi nozuhi kunze yembelele izobete munzuvo ya Isilaele.”
25 Kodwa weza wamkhonza wathi: Nkosi, ngisize.
Kono iye neza nikwiza kufukama habusu bwakwe, nati, “Simwine, unituse.”
26 Kodwa waphendula wathi: Kakukuhle ukuthatha isinkwa sabantwana, lokusiphosela izinjana.
Netaba nati, “Kakuyelele kuhinda chinkwa chabahwile ni kuchiha tumbwazana.”
27 Kodwa yena wathi: Yebo, Nkosi, kodwa lezinjana ziyadla okwemvuthuluka eziwa etafuleni labaninizo.
Mwanakazi nati, “Eni Simwine, kono nanga tumbwazana tulyanga ziwanga kumilomo hetafule ibafumwa to.”
28 UJesu wasephendula wathi kuye: O mama, lukhulu ukholo lwakho! Kakube kuwe njengokuthanda kwakho. Indodakazi yakhe yasisila kusukela kulelohola.
Linu Jesu abetavi mi abati kwali, “Mwanakazi, itumelo yako inkando. Usiye kutendahale kwako sina mosakila.” Mi mwanakwe abaholi chehola iswana.
29 UJesu wasesuka lapho weza eduzane kolwandle lweGalili; wenyukela entabeni wahlala phansi khona.
Jesu abasiyi icho chibaka mi nayenda kumbali ni Iwate la Galileya. Kuzwaho abatanti kuya helunduzana ni kukekala hateni.
30 Kwasekusiza kuye amaxuku amakhulu, beleziqhuli, iziphofu, izimungulu, izingini, labanye abanengi, basebebaphosela enyaweni zikaJesu, wasebasilisa;
Ikunga ikando nilyeza kwali. Nibaleta bachukuta, bahofu, basatambi, ni basayendi, ni bamwi babali kulwala. Ni babaleta hamatende a Jesu, mi nabahoza bonse.
31 aze amangala amaxuku, ebona izimungulu zikhuluma, izingini ziphilile, iziqhuli zihamba, leziphofu zibona; basebemdumisa uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli.
Chobulyo ikunga nilyamakala chabukando hababona basatambi kuti chibawamba, bachukuta chibaba nenza, basayendi chibayenda, ni bahofu chibabona. Niba lumba Ereeza wa Isilaele.
32 UJesu wasebizela kuye abafundi bakhe wathi: Ngilesihelo ngexuku, ngoba sebelami insuku ezintathu, bengelalutho lokudla; njalo kangithandi ukuthi ngibayekele bahambe bengadlanga, hlezi bayathe endleleni.
Jesu abasupi barutwana bakwe mi nati, “Nifwila ikunga inse, mukuti chibabekali name mazuba otatwe mi kakwina chibabali. Kanisuni kubalukulula ni basalile, kokuma sanzi bazuminini munzila.”
33 Abafundi bakhe basebesithi kuye: Sizazuza ngaphi enkangala izinkwa ezinengi kangaka, ukuthi zisuthise ixuku elikhulu kangaka?
Barutwana nibawamba kwali ni bati, “Katuwane kuhi mañende azinkwa mwihalaupa likena buti kuti tufepe ikunga ikando buti?”
34 UJesu wasesithi kubo: Lilezinkwa ezingaki? Basebesithi: Eziyisikhombisa, lenhlanzana ezinlutshwana.
Jesu nabawambila kuti, “Mwina mañende ongahi?” Babetabi kuti, “Amana iyanza ni obele, ni tunswi tulikene.”
35 Waselaya amaxuku ukuthi ahlale phansi emhlabathini.
Linu Jesu nalaela ikunga kwikala hansi.
36 Wasethatha izinkwa eziyisikhombisa lenhlanzi, esebongile wazihlephula, wazinika abafundi bakhe, labafundi ixuku.
Nichahinda mañende amana iyanza ni obele ni nswi, mi hamana kulitumela, ni changamona mañende ni kwaha kubarutwana bakwe. Barutwana nibaha mañende kwikunga.
37 Basebesidla bonke basutha; basebedobha imvuthu ezazisele, izitsha eziyisikhombisa zigcwele.
Bantu bonse nibalya ni kuikuta. Mi nibakunganya zilyo zibashali zibangamoki tukoto, zitanda zimana iyanza ni zobele ni zezula.
38 Lalabo abadlayo babengamadoda azinkulungwane ezine, ngaphandle kwabesifazana labantwana.
Babali ibali balule bone, kuzwisa kwateñi banakazi ni bahwile.
39 Eseyekele amaxuku ahamba wangena emkhunjini, weza emikhawulweni yeMagadala.
Linu Jesu chalukulula ikunga mi nenjila muchikepe ni kuya muchikiliti cha Magadani.
