< Luka 10 >
1 Pagamaliki genago, Bambu akavahagula vandu vangi sabini na vavili, akavatuma vavili vavili vamulongolela kukila chijiji na kungi kweagana mwene kuhamba.
Njalo emva kwalezizinto iNkosi yamisa njalo abanye abangamatshumi ayisikhombisa, yabathuma ngababili phambi kobuso bayo emizini yonke lezindaweni zonke ebizakuya kuzo yona.
2 Akavajovela, “Mabenu gamahele, nambu vabenaji vadebe. Mumuyupa mkolo mgunda avatuma vabenaji kumgunda waki.
Ngakho yathi kubo: Isibili isivuno sikhulu, kodwa izisebenzi zinlutshwana. Ngakho ncengani eNkosini yesivuno, ukuze ithume izisebenzi esivunweni sayo.
3 Hinu muhamba! Mumanya kuvya nikuvatuma nyenye ngati limbelele gegihamba pagati ya libwa la mudahi.
Hambani; khangelani, mina ngiyalithuma linjengezimvana phakathi kwezimpisi.
4 Mkotoka kutola chihaku cha mashonga amala lihaku wala Champali na munjila, mkotoka kumjambusa mundu yoyoha yula.
Lingaphathi umxhaka, lesikhwama, lamanyathela; njalo lingabingeleli muntu endleleni.
5 Nyumba yoyoha yemuyingila, muvajambusa, ‘Uteke uvyayi munyumba iyi.’
Njalo lakuyiphi indlu elingena kuyo, qalani lithi: Ukuthula kakube kulindlu.
6 Ngati avi mundu mweigana uteke, ndi uteke winu yati yitama na mwene! Ngati avi lepi, uteke winu yivawuyila mwavene.
Njalo uba kukhona lapho indodana yokuthula, ukuthula kwenu kuzahlala phezu kwayo; kodwa uba kungenjalo, kuzabuyela kini.
7 Mutama panyumba yeniyo, mlyayi na kunywa vyevakuvapela. Ndava muni mwanalihengu yiganikiwa apewa njombi yaki. Mkotoka kuwuka panyumba iyi na kuhamba panyumba yila.
Hlalani-ke kuleyondlu, lidle linathe izinto ezivela kubo; ngoba isisebenzi sifanele umvuzo waso. Lingayi endlini lendlini.
8 Pamuji wowoha wemuhikila na vandu ngati vavapokalili, mlyayi vyevakuvapela.
Lakuwuphi umuzi elingena kuwo, besebelemukela, dlanini okubekwa phambi kwenu,
9 Muvalamisa vana matamu vevavi kwenuko, muvajovela vandu, Unkosi wa Chapanga uvi papipi na nyenye.
lisilise abagulayo abakuwo, njalo lithi kubo: Umbuso kaNkulunkulu usondele kini.
10 Nambu mukayingili pamuji wowoha wula na vakolo muji nakuvapokela, muwuka penapo, na pemwigenda munjila zavi mujova.
Kodwa lakuwuphi umuzi elingena kuwo, futhi bengalemukeli, phumelani endleleni zawo, lithi:
11 ‘Pamonga na lububu lwa muji winu lweluvi mumagendelu gitu, tikuvahungulila kulangisa mwavene muhagwili kubela ujumbi wa Chapanga. Nambu, mumanyalila kuvya, Unkosi wa Chapanga uvi papipi na nyenye!’
Lothuli lomuzi wenu olusinamatheleyo siyaluthintithela kini; kodwa-ke yazini lokhu, ukuthi umbuso kaNkulunkulu usondele kini.
12 Chakaka nikuvajovela, ligono la muhalu ukulu, Chapanga yati avalipisa pavaha kwa uhakau winu kuliku vandu va ku Sodoma!”
Njalo ngithi kini: Kuzakuba lula eSodoma ngalolosuku, kulakulowomuzi.
13 “Walachikolela veve Kolazini! Walachikolela veve Betisaida! Muni, gachinamtiti yeyakitiki kwinu, kuvya nga gakitiki ku Tilo na ku Sidoni, kutumbula penapo vandu vaki ngavamali kuwala nyula za magunila na kutama palyenge kulangisa vamuwuyili Chapanga.
Maye kuwe, Korazini! Maye kuwe, Bhethisayida! Ngoba uba kwakwenziwe eTire leSidoni imisebenzi yamandla eyenziwe kini, ngabe kade baphenduka bahlala emasakeni lemlotheni.
14 Hinu ligono la muhalu mkulu, Chapanga yati akuvabuna pavaha kuliku vandu va ku Tilo na ku Sidoni.
Kodwa kuzakuba lula eTire leSidoni ekugwetshweni, kulakini.
15 Na veve Kapelanaumu, yati ukujikwiha mbaka kunani kwa Chapanga? Lepi yati vakuhulusa mbaka kuligodi litali langali mwishu!” (Hadēs )
Lawe, Kapenawume, ophakanyiselwe ezulwini, uzaphoselwa phansi esihogweni. (Hadēs )
16 Kangi Yesu akajova, “Mundu mweakuvayuwanila nyenye, akuniyuwanila nene na mundu mweibela kuvapokela nyenye, ibela kunipokela nene. Na mundu yoyoha mweibela kunipokela nene, ibela kumpokela mweanitumili nene.”
Olizwayo lina uyangizwa mina; lolalayo lina uyangala mina; longalayo mina uyamala ongithumileyo.
17 Vawuliwa vala sabini na vavili vawuyili kuni visangaluka vakamjovela, “Bambu na mizuka nayene yikatiyidakili petakayihakalili kwa liina laku.”
Babuya-ke abangamatshumi ayisikhombisa ngentokozo, besithi: Nkosi, lamadimoni ayazehlisela ngaphansi kwethu ebizweni lakho.
18 Mwene akavajovela, “Namuweni Setani ihelela kuhumila kunani ngati lumuli lwa mbamba.”
Wasesithi kubo: Ngabona uSathane njengombane esiwa evela ezulwini.
19 Muyuwanila! Nivapeli kuhotola kulivatila liyoka na chipilili, pamonga na kugabesa makakala goha ga likoko kawaka chindu cha kuvalemasa.
Khangelani, ngilinika amandla okunyathela phezu kwezinyoka labofezela, laphezu kwamandla wonke esitha; njalo akusoze kube lalutho olungalilimaza.
20 Nambu mkotoka kuheka ndava ya mizuka cheyikuvayidakila, ndi muhekelela muni mahina ginu gayandikiwi kunani kwa Chapanga.
Kodwa lingathokozi ngalokho ukuthi omoya bayazehlisela ngaphansi kwenu; kodwa ikakhulu thokozani ukuthi amabizo enu alotshiwe emazulwini.
21 Lukumbi lulalula, Mpungu Msopi ammemisi Yesu luheku, akajova, nikusengusa wa Dadi, Bambu wa kunani na pamulima! Muni mambu aga uvafihiyili vevavi na luhala na vamanyaji, ubweli kuvagubukulila vana vadebe. Ena, Dadi ndi chawaganili.
Ngalelohola uJesu wathokoza emoyeni, wathi: Ngiyakubonga, Baba, Nkosi yezulu lomhlaba, ngoba uzifihlile lezizinto kwabahlakaniphileyo labaqedisisayo, kodwa wazembulela izingane; yebo, Baba, ngoba ngokunjalo kwaba kuhle phambi kwakho.
22 Akayendelela kujova, “Dadi wangu anipeli vindu vyoha. Avi lepi mweammanyi Mwana nga Dadi na avi lepi mweammanyi Dadi nga Mwana na yoyoha mweaganili kumgubukulila.”
Konke kwanikelwa kimi nguBaba; njalo kakho owaziyo ukuthi iNdodana ingubani, ngaphandle kukaBaba, lokuthi uBaba ungubani, ngaphandle kweNdodana, njalo loba ngubani iNdodana ethanda ukumembulela.
23 Kangi avang'anamkili vawuliwa vaki akalongela nawu pachiepela, “Mmotisiwa nyenye kwa kulola chenicho chemwilola!
Wasephendukela kubafundi bebodwa wathi: Abusisiwe amehlo abona elikubonayo.
24 Chakaka, nikuvajovela vamlota va Chapanga na vankosi vanogili kugawona gemukugawona nyenye aga nambu vagaweni lepi, pangi vaganili kuyuwana gemyuwana nyenye aga, nambu vayuwini lepi.”
Ngoba ngithi kini: Abaprofethi abanengi lamakhosi babethanda ukubona izinto elizibonayo lina, kodwa kabazibonanga; lokuzwa izinto elizizwayo, kodwa kabazizwanga.
25 Mundu mmonga mwamanyili bwina malagizu, ayimili akamkota Yesu cha kugana kumlinga. “Muwula, nikita wuli, muni nipokela wumi wa magono goha?” (aiōnios )
Njalo khangela, isazumthetho esithile sasesisukuma, simlinga, sisithi: Mfundisi, ngenzeni ukuze ngidle ilifa lempilo elaphakade? (aiōnios )
26 Yesu akamkota, “Kiki chiyandikiwi mu Malagizu ga Musa? Ukuyisoma wuli?”
Wasesithi kuso: Kubhalweni emlayweni? Uwubala njani?
27 Mundu yula akamyangula, “Umgana Bambu Chapanga waku kwa mtima waku woha na kwa wumi waku woha na kwa makakala gaku goha na kwa luhala lwaku loha. Na, umganayi muyaku ngati cheujigana wamwene.”
Sasesiphendula sathi: Wothanda iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho, ngenhliziyo yakho yonke, langomphefumulo wakho wonke, langamandla akho wonke, langengqondo yakho yonke; lomakhelwane wakho njengalokhu uzithanda wena.
28 Yesu akamjovela, “Chabwina! Kakita chenicho na veve yati wilama.”
Wasesithi kuso: Uphendule ngokuqonda; yenza lokhu, futhi uzaphila.
29 Nambu mwene aganili kulangisa kuvya amanyili cheachikotili, ndi akamkota Yesu, “Wu, muyangu ndi yani?”
Kodwa sona sithanda ukuzilungisisa sathi kuJesu: Kanti ngubani umakhelwane wami?
30 Yesu akamyangula akajova, “Kwavi na mundu mmonga mweahelela kuhuma ku Yelusalemu kuhamba ku Yeliko, munjila vanyagaji, vakamzangila na kumtova, na vakamuhula nyula na kumnyaga vindu vyaki vyoha vyeavinavyu, vakamleka penapo avi mulung'olelu.
UJesu wasephendula wathi: Umuntu othile wehla evela eJerusalema esiya eJeriko, watheleka phakathi kwabaphangi, njalo bamhlubula impahla bamtshaya imivimvinya basuka bahamba, bamtshiya ephosukufa.
31 Na ngipu yene Mteta wa Chapanga mmonga apitayi njila yilayila, peamuweni mundu yula mweazangiwi, akaveduka kumuhana akahamba.
Umpristi othile waseqabuka esehla ngaleyondlela; njalo wathi embona, wadlula eceleni.
32 Mewawa mundu Mlawi mmonga, apitili penapo peamuwene mweazangiwi yula akaveduka pamuhana akahamba.
Langokunjalo lomLevi nxa wayesekulindawo, wafika embona, wadlula eceleni.
33 Nambu Msamaliya mmonga mweavi mulugendu ahikili peavi mundu yula ndi peamuwene akamhengela lipyana.
Kodwa umSamariya othile owayehamba wafika lapho ayekhona, njalo kwathi embona waba lesihelo,
34 Akamuhegelela, akamnyala mahuta na kumsopa divayi muvilonda vyaki na kuvinyembelela bwina, kangi akamkwesa panani ya punda waki, akahamba nayu ku nyumba ya vayehe, na kumlwasa.
waya kuye wabopha amanxeba akhe, ewathela amagcobo lewayini; wamkhweza phezu kweyakhe inyamazana, wamusa endlini yezihambi, wamlondoloza.
35 Chilau yaki akawusa mashonga dinali zivili akampela myimilila nyumba ya vayehe, akamjovela, mlwasa mundu uyu, na peniwuyayi yati nikukulipa chochoha cheuyonjokesa.”
Kusisa esehamba, wakhupha odenariyo ababili wabanika umninindlu, wathi kuye: Umlondoloze; njalo loba yini ozakuchitha okwedlula lokhu, mina ngizabuyisela kuwe ekubuyeni kwami.
36 Kangi Yesu akakota, “Pagati ya vandu vadatu ava, muyaki wa yula mweazangiwi na vanyagaji ndi yani?”
Pho, nguwuphi kulaba abathathu ocabanga ukuthi wayengumakhelwane walowo owatheleka phakathi kwabaphangi?
37 Muwula wa malagizu ga Chapanga geampeli Musa yula akamyangula “Ndi yula mweamhengili lipyana.” Yesu akamjovela, “Uhamba ukakita mewa.”
Wasesithi: Ngulowo owamenzela isihawu. Ngakho uJesu wathi kuye: Hamba, lawe wenze njalo.
38 Yesu na vawuliwa vaki pavavi mulugendu, vakayingila muchijiji chimonga, penapo mdala mmonga mwavamkemela Malita, akavagongolela kunyumba yaki.
Kwasekusithi ekuhambeni kwabo, yena wangena emzaneni othile; lowesifazana othile, uMarta ngebizo, wamemukela endlini yakhe.
39 Malita yula, avi na mlumbu waki mwavamkemela Maliya, mwenuyo atamili papipi na Yesu na kuyuwanila malovi gaki.
Njalo lo wayelodadewabo othiwa nguMariya, laye owahlala enyaweni zikaJesu, walizwa ilizwi lakhe.
40 Nambu Malita ajifwahisa na mahengu gamahele. Ndi, akamuhambila Yesu, akamjovela, “Bambu, nakumlola mlumbu wangu anileki mahengu aga namwene? Hinu mjovelayi anitangatilayi.”
Kodwa uMarta wayephazanyiswa yikusebenza okunengi; weza eduze wasesithi: Nkosi, kawukhathali yini ukuthi udadewethu ungitshiye ukuthi ngisebenze ngedwa? Ngakho umtshele ukuthi angisize.
41 Nambu Bambu akamyangula, “Malita, Malita, Veve ujifwahisa na kujing'aha na mambu gamahele.
Kodwa uJesu waphendula wathi kuye: Marta, Marta, uyaphiseka ukhathazeke ngezinto ezinengi;
42 Nambu chiganikiwa chindu chimonga ndu. Na Maliya ahagwili lilundu labwina, na kawaka mundu wa kumnyaga.”
kodwa yinye into edingekayo; kodwa uMariya ukhethile isabelo esihle, angayikwemukwa sona.
