UMathewu 21
1 Kwathi-ke sebesondele eJerusalema, sebefikile eBetfage entabeni yeMihlwathi, khona uJesu wathuma abafundi ababili,
anantaraṁ teṣu yirūśālamnagarasya samīpaverttino jaitunanāmakadharādharasya samīpasthtiṁ baitphagigrāmam āgateṣu, yīśuḥ śiṣyadvayaṁ preṣayan jagāda,
2 esithi kubo: Hambani liye emzaneni okhangelene lani, lizahle libone ubabhemi ekhulekiwe, lethole lilaye; libakhulule, libalethe kimi.
yuvāṁ sammukhasthagrāmaṁ gatvā baddhāṁ yāṁ savatsāṁ garddabhīṁ haṭhāt prāpsyathaḥ, tāṁ mocayitvā madantikam ānayataṁ|
3 Futhi uba umuntu ekhuluma ulutho kini, lizakuthi: INkosi iyabaswela; njalo uzahle abathumele.
tatra yadi kaścit kiñcid vakṣyati, tarhi vadiṣyathaḥ, etasyāṁ prabhoḥ prayojanamāste, tena sa tatkṣaṇāt praheṣyati|
4 Njalo konke lokhu kwenzeka, ukuze kugcwaliseke okwakhulunywa ngumprofethi, ukuthi:
sīyonaḥ kanyakāṁ yūyaṁ bhāṣadhvamiti bhāratīṁ| paśya te namraśīlaḥ san nṛpa āruhya gardabhīṁ| arthādāruhya tadvatsamāyāsyati tvadantikaṁ|
5 Tshelani indodakazi yeSiyoni ukuthi: Khangela, iNkosi yakho iyeza kuwe, imnene igade ubabhemi, lethole inkonyana yenyamazana yokuthwala.
bhaviṣyadvādinoktaṁ vacanamidaṁ tadā saphalamabhūt|
6 Abafundi bahamba-ke, benza njengalokhu uJesu wayebalayile,
anantaraṁ tau śṣyi yīśo ryathānideśaṁ taṁ grāmaṁ gatvā
7 baletha ubabhemi lethole, babeka izembatho zabo phezu kwabo, bamhlalisa phezu kwazo.
gardabhīṁ tadvatsañca samānītavantau, paścāt tadupari svīyavasanānī pātayitvā tamārohayāmāsatuḥ|
8 Lenengi lexuku lendlala ezalo izembatho endleleni; labanye bagamula ingatsha zezihlahla, bazendlala endleleni.
tato bahavo lokā nijavasanāni pathi prasārayitumārebhire, katipayā janāśca pādapaparṇādikaṁ chitvā pathi vistārayāmāsuḥ|
9 Lamaxuku ayehamba phambili lababelandela bamemeza, besithi: Hosana kuyo iNdodana kaDavida! Ubusisiwe ozayo ebizweni leNkosi. Hosana kweliphezulu!
agragāminaḥ paścādgāminaśca manujā uccairjaya jaya dāyūdaḥ santāneti jagaduḥ parameśvarasya nāmnā ya āyāti sa dhanyaḥ, sarvvoparisthasvargepi jayati|
10 Esengenile eJerusalema umuzi wonke wanyakazela usithi: Ngubani lo?
itthaṁ tasmin yirūśālamaṁ praviṣṭe ko'yamiti kathanāt kṛtsnaṁ nagaraṁ cañcalamabhavat|
11 Amaxuku asesithi: Lo nguJesu umprofethi, oweNazaretha yeGalili.
tatra lokoḥ kathayāmāsuḥ, eṣa gālīlpradeśīya-nāsaratīya-bhaviṣyadvādī yīśuḥ|
12 UJesu wasengena ethempelini likaNkulunkulu, wabaxotsha bonke ababethengisa lababethenga ethempelini, wasegenqula amatafula ababentshintshelana imali, lezihlalo zalabo ababethengisa amajuba.
anantaraṁ yīśurīśvarasya mandiraṁ praviśya tanmadhyāt krayavikrayiṇo vahiścakāra; vaṇijāṁ mudrāsanānī kapotavikrayiṇāñcasanānī ca nyuvjayāmāsa|
13 Wasesithi kubo: Kulotshiwe ukuthi: Indlu yami izabizwa ngokuthi yindlu yomkhuleko; kodwa lina liyenze ubhalu lwabaphangi.
aparaṁ tānuvāca, eṣā lipirāste, "mama gṛhaṁ prārthanāgṛhamiti vikhyāsyati", kintu yūyaṁ tad dasyūnāṁ gahvaraṁ kṛtavantaḥ|
14 Kwasekufika kuye iziphofu leziqhuli ethempelini; wasezisilisa.
tadanantaram andhakhañcalokāstasya samīpamāgatāḥ, sa tān nirāmayān kṛtavān|
15 Kodwa abapristi abakhulu lababhali sebebonile izimangaliso azenzayo, labantwana bememeza ethempelini, besithi: Hosana eNdodaneni kaDavida! bathukuthela,
yadā pradhānayājakā adhyāpakāśca tena kṛtānyetāni citrakarmmāṇi dadṛśuḥ, jaya jaya dāyūdaḥ santāna, mandire bālakānām etādṛśam uccadhvaniṁ śuśruvuśca, tadā mahākruddhā babhūvaḥ,
16 basebesithi kuye: Uyakuzwa lokhu yini abakutshoyo laba? UJesu wasesithi kubo: Yebo; alikaze lifunde yini ukuthi: Emlonyeni wezingane lowabamunyayo uphelelise indumiso?
taṁ papracchuśca, ime yad vadanti, tat kiṁ tvaṁ śṛṇoṣi? tato yīśustān avocat, satyam; stanyapāyiśiśūnāñca bālakānāñca vaktrataḥ| svakīyaṁ mahimānaṁ tvaṁ saṁprakāśayasi svayaṁ| etadvākyaṁ yūyaṁ kiṁ nāpaṭhata?
17 Wasebatshiya waphuma phandle komuzi esiya eBethani, walala khona.
tatastān vihāya sa nagarād baithaniyāgrāmaṁ gatvā tatra rajanīṁ yāpayāmāsa|
18 Kwathi ebuyela emzini ekuseni, walamba;
anantaraṁ prabhāte sati yīśuḥ punarapi nagaramāgacchan kṣudhārtto babhūva|
19 kwathi ebona umkhiwa othile endleleni, wasondela kuwo, kodwa katholanga lutho kuwo ngaphandle kwamahlamvu wodwa; wathi kuwo: Kakungabe kusavela isithelo kuwe lanini. Njalo umkhiwa wahle wabuna. (aiōn g165)
tato mārgapārśva uḍumbaravṛkṣamekaṁ vilokya tatsamīpaṁ gatvā patrāṇi vinā kimapi na prāpya taṁ pādapaṁ provāca, adyārabhya kadāpi tvayi phalaṁ na bhavatu; tena tatkṣaṇāt sa uḍumbaramāhīruhaḥ śuṣkatāṁ gataḥ| (aiōn g165)
20 Kwathi bebona lokhu abafundi bakhe bamangala, besithi: Umkhiwa uhle wabuna njani?
tad dṛṣṭvā śiṣyā āścaryyaṁ vijñāya kathayāmāsuḥ, āḥ, uḍumvarapādapo'titūrṇaṁ śuṣko'bhavat|
21 UJesu wasephendula wathi kubo: Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Uba lilokholo, lingathandabuzi, kaliyikwenza lokhu okomkhiwa kuphela, kodwa loba lisithi lakulintaba: Qutshunwa uphoselwe olwandle, kuzakwenzeka.
tato yīśustānuvāca, yuṣmānahaṁ satyaṁ vadāmi, yadi yūyamasandigdhāḥ pratītha, tarhi yūyamapi kevaloḍumvarapādapaṁ pratītthaṁ karttuṁ śakṣyatha, tanna, tvaṁ calitvā sāgare pateti vākyaṁ yuṣmābhirasmina śaile proktepi tadaiva tad ghaṭiṣyate|
22 Njalo konke loba kuyini elikucelayo emkhulekweni, likholwa, lizakwemukela.
tathā viśvasya prārthya yuṣmābhi ryad yāciṣyate, tadeva prāpsyate|
23 Kwathi esengenile ethempelini, abapristi abakhulu labadala babantu basondela kuye esafundisa, bathi: Izinto lezi uzenza ngaliphi igunya? Njalo ngubani okunike leligunya?
anantaraṁ mandiraṁ praviśyopadeśanasamaye tatsamīpaṁ pradhānayājakāḥ prācīnalokāścāgatya papracchuḥ, tvayā kena sāmarthyanaitāni karmmāṇi kriyante? kena vā tubhyametāni sāmarthyāni dattāni?
24 UJesu wasephendula wathi kubo: Lami ngizalibuza umbuzo ube munye; uba lingitshela lokhu, lami ngizalitshela ukuthi ngenza lezizinto ngaliphi igunya:
tato yīśuḥ pratyavadat, ahamapi yuṣmān vācamekāṁ pṛcchāmi, yadi yūyaṁ taduttaraṁ dātuṁ śakṣyatha, tadā kena sāmarthyena karmmāṇyetāni karomi, tadahaṁ yuṣmān vakṣyāmi|
25 Ubhabhathizo lukaJohane lwavela ngaphi? Ezulwini kumbe ebantwini? Basebekhulumisana, besithi: Uba sisithi: Ezulwini, uzakuthi kithi: Pho kalikholwanga kuye ngani?
yohano majjanaṁ kasyājñayābhavat? kimīśvarasya manuṣyasya vā? tataste parasparaṁ vivicya kathayāmāsuḥ, yadīśvarasyeti vadāmastarhi yūyaṁ taṁ kuto na pratyaita? vācametāṁ vakṣyati|
26 Kodwa uba sisithi: Ebantwini, siyesaba ixuku; ngoba bonke bamphatha uJohane njengomprofethi.
manuṣyasyeti vaktumapi lokebhyo bibhīmaḥ, yataḥ sarvvairapi yohan bhaviṣyadvādīti jñāyate|
27 Basebemphendula uJesu bathi: Kasazi. Wasesithi kubo: Lami kangilitsheli ukuthi ngenza lezizinto ngaliphi igunya.
tasmāt te yīśuṁ pratyavadan, tad vayaṁ na vidmaḥ| tadā sa tānuktavān, tarhi kena sāmarathyena karmmāṇyetānyahaṁ karomi, tadapyahaṁ yuṣmān na vakṣyāmi|
28 Kanti licabangani? Umuntu wayelamadodana amabili; waya kweyokuqala wathi: Mntanami, hamba, uyesebenza lamuhla esivinini sami.
kasyacijjanasya dvau sutāvāstāṁ sa ekasya sutasya samīpaṁ gatvā jagāda, he suta, tvamadya mama drākṣākṣetre karmma kartuṁ vraja|
29 Kodwa yaphendula yathi: Angifuni. Kodwa emva kwalokho yaphenduka, yahamba.
tataḥ sa uktavān, na yāsyāmi, kintu śeṣe'nutapya jagāma|
30 Wasesiya kweyesibili watsho ngokunjalo. Yona-ke yaphendula yathi: Ngiyahamba, nkosi. Kodwa kayiyanga.
anantaraṁ sonyasutasya samīpaṁ gatvā tathaiva kathtivān; tataḥ sa pratyuvāca, maheccha yāmi, kintu na gataḥ|
31 Yiyiphi kulawo amabili eyenza intando kayise? Bathi kuye: Eyokuqala. UJesu wathi kubo: Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Abathelisi lezifebe bayangena embusweni kaNkulunkulu phambi kwenu.
etayoḥ putrayo rmadhye piturabhimataṁ kena pālitaṁ? yuṣmābhiḥ kiṁ budhyate? tataste pratyūcuḥ, prathamena putreṇa| tadānīṁ yīśustānuvāca, ahaṁ yuṣmān tathyaṁ vadāmi, caṇḍālā gaṇikāśca yuṣmākamagrata īśvarasya rājyaṁ praviśanti|
32 Ngoba uJohane wafika kini ngendlela yokulunga, kalikholwanga kuye; kodwa abathelisi lezifebe bakholwa kuye; kodwa lina selikubonile kaliphendukanga emva kwalokho ukuthi likholwe kuye.
yato yuṣmākaṁ samīpaṁ yohani dharmmapathenāgate yūyaṁ taṁ na pratītha, kintu caṇḍālā gaṇikāśca taṁ pratyāyan, tad vilokyāpi yūyaṁ pratyetuṁ nākhidyadhvaṁ|
33 Zwanini omunye umfanekiso. Kwakukhona umuntu othile ongumninimuzi, owahlanyela isivini, wasibiyela ngothango, wagebha isikhamelo kuso, wakha umphotshongo, wasiqhatshisa kubalimi, waya kwelinye ilizwe.
aparamekaṁ dṛṣṭāntaṁ śṛṇuta, kaścid gṛhasthaḥ kṣetre drākṣālatā ropayitvā taccaturdikṣu vāraṇīṁ vidhāya tanmadhye drākṣāyantraṁ sthāpitavān, māñcañca nirmmitavān, tataḥ kṛṣakeṣu tat kṣetraṁ samarpya svayaṁ dūradeśaṁ jagāma|
34 Kwathi sekusondele isikhathi sezithelo, wathuma inceku zakhe kubalimi, ukuze zemukele izithelo zakhe.
tadanantaraṁ phalasamaya upasthite sa phalāni prāptuṁ kṛṣīvalānāṁ samīpaṁ nijadāsān preṣayāmāsa|
35 Abalimi basebezibamba inceku zakhe, enye bayitshaya, lenye bayibulala, lenye bayikhanda ngamatshe.
kintu kṛṣīvalāstasya tān dāseyān dhṛtvā kañcana prahṛtavantaḥ, kañcana pāṣāṇairāhatavantaḥ, kañcana ca hatavantaḥ|
36 Wabuya wathuma ezinye inceku ezinengi kulezokuqala; basebesenza njalo kulezo.
punarapi sa prabhuḥ prathamato'dhikadāseyān preṣayāmāsa, kintu te tān pratyapi tathaiva cakruḥ|
37 Ekucineni wasethuma indodana yakhe kubo, esithi: Bazayihlonipha indodana yami.
anantaraṁ mama sute gate taṁ samādariṣyante, ityuktvā śeṣe sa nijasutaṁ teṣāṁ sannidhiṁ preṣayāmāsa|
38 Kodwa abalimi sebeyibonile indodana bakhulumisana besithi: Le yindlalifa; wozani, siyibulale, njalo sibambe ilifa layo.
kintu te kṛṣīvalāḥ sutaṁ vīkṣya parasparam iti mantrayitum ārebhire, ayamuttarādhikārī vayamenaṁ nihatyāsyādhikāraṁ svavaśīkariṣyāmaḥ|
39 Basebeyibamba bayiphosela ngaphandle kwesivini, bayibulala.
paścāt te taṁ dhṛtvā drākṣākṣetrād bahiḥ pātayitvābadhiṣuḥ|
40 Ngakho mhla kufika umninisivini, uzabenzani abalimi labo?
yadā sa drākṣākṣetrapatirāgamiṣyati, tadā tān kṛṣīvalān kiṁ kariṣyati?
41 Bathi kuye: Uzababhubhisa kakubi labo ababi, njalo uzaqhatshisa isivini kwabanye abalimi, abazamnika izithelo ngezikhathi zazo.
tataste pratyavadan, tān kaluṣiṇo dāruṇayātanābhirāhaniṣyati, ye ca samayānukramāt phalāni dāsyanti, tādṛśeṣu kṛṣīvaleṣu kṣetraṁ samarpayiṣyati|
42 UJesu wathi kubo: Alikaze lifunde yini emibhalweni ukuthi: Ilitshe abakhi abalalayo, yilo eseliyinhloko yengonsi; lokhu yikwenza kweNkosi; njalo kuyamangalisa emehlweni ethu?
tadā yīśunā te gaditāḥ, grahaṇaṁ na kṛtaṁ yasya pāṣāṇasya nicāyakaiḥ| pradhānaprastaraḥ koṇe saeva saṁbhaviṣyati| etat pareśituḥ karmmāsmadṛṣṭāvadbhutaṁ bhavet| dharmmagranthe likhitametadvacanaṁ yuṣmābhiḥ kiṁ nāpāṭhi?
43 Ngakho ngithi kini: Lizakwemukwa umbuso kaNkulunkulu, unikwe isizwe esithela izithelo zawo.
tasmādahaṁ yuṣmān vadāmi, yuṣmatta īśvarīyarājyamapanīya phalotpādayitranyajātaye dāyiṣyate|
44 Lalowo owela phezu kwalelilitshe uzaphahlazwa; kodwa loba ngubani eliwela phezu kwakhe lizamchoboza.
yo jana etatpāṣāṇopari patiṣyati, taṁ sa bhaṁkṣyate, kintvayaṁ pāṣāṇo yasyopari patiṣyati, taṁ sa dhūlivat cūrṇīkariṣyati|
45 Kwathi abapristi abakhulu labaFarisi sebezwile imifanekiso yakhe bazi ukuthi ubekhuluma ngabo.
tadānīṁ prādhanayājakāḥ phirūśinaśca tasyemāṁ dṛṣṭāntakathāṁ śrutvā so'smānuddiśya kathitavān, iti vijñāya taṁ dharttuṁ ceṣṭitavantaḥ;
46 Kwathi sebedinga ukumbamba besaba amaxuku, ngoba ayemphatha njengomprofethi.
kintu lokebhyo bibhyuḥ, yato lokaiḥ sa bhaviṣyadvādītyajñāyi|
