Ruka 14
1 Mumwe musi weSabata, Jesu akanga achicherechedzwa kwazvo paakanga aenda kundodya mumba momumwe muFarisi akanga achikudzwa kwazvo.
Ngelinye iSabatha uJesu wayakudla endlini yomFarisi owayedume kakhulu, babemkhangele kakhulu.
2 Pamberi pake ipapo pakanga pane munhu akanga ane chirwere chorukandwe.
Phambi kwakhe khonapho kwakulendoda eyayilesifo sikambizankulu, esivuvukisa izitho.
3 Jesu akabvunza vaFarisi navadudziri vomurayiro achiti, “Zvinotenderwa here nomurayiro kuporesa nomusi weSabata, kana kuti kwete?”
UJesu wasebuza abaFarisi lezazi zomthetho wathi, “Kusemthethweni yini ukusilisa ngosuku lweSabatha kumbe hatshi?”
4 Asi vakaramba vanyerere. Naizvozvo akabata ruoko rwomunhu uya, akamuporesa ndokubva amuti aende.
Kodwa bathula. Ngakho waseyibamba indoda leyo wayisilisa wathi kayihambe.
5 Ipapo akavabvunza akati, “Ndiani pakati penyu angati kana mwanakomana, kana mombe yake ikawira mutsime nomusi weSabata, angarega kuibudisa pakarepo?”
Wasebabuza wathi, “Nxa omunye wenu elendodana loba inkabi yakhe ewele emgodini ngeSabatha, kayikuphanga ayikhuphe masinyane na?”
6 Ipapo vakashayiwa chokureva.
Baswela ukuthi bathini.
7 Akati achiona kuti vakakokwa vaisarudza sei zvigaro zvapamberi patafura, akavaudza mufananidzo uyu akati kwavari,
Wananzelela ukuthi izethekeli zazikhetha izindawo eziqakathekileyo etafuleni wasebatshela umzekeliso wathi:
8 “Kana mumwe akakukoka kumuchato, usazvisarudzira nzvimbo yapamberi, nokuti mumwe munhu anokudzwa kupfuura iwe angadaro akakokwa.
“Nxa omunye ekunxusa edilini lomthimba, ungaze wathatha indawo eqakathekileyo funa kunxuswe umuntu omkhulu kulawe.
9 Kana zvakadaro, munhu akakukokai imi vaviri achauya agoti kwauri, ‘Ibva ipapo iwe, munhu uyu agare.’ Ipapo, nenyadzi, uchatora chigaro cheshure chokupedzisira.
Nxa kunjalo umalinxusa uzakuza athi kuwe, ‘Ake uxekele lo omunye isihlalo sakho.’ Uzabe usuyangekile ususiyahlala endaweni ephansi kakhulu.
10 Asi kana wakokwa, utore chigaro cheshure, kuitira kuti kana akukoka ouya, azoti kwauri, ‘Shamwari, simuka uende kundogara panzvimbo iri nani.’ Ipapo ucharemekedzwa pamberi pavose vawakakokwa pamwe chete navo.
Kodwa nxa unxusiwe, hlala endaweni ephansi kakhulu ukuze kuthi nxa umakunxusa efika kuwe athi, ‘Mngane, sukuma uye endaweni engcono.’ Lapho-ke, uzabe uphakanyisiwe phambi kwabo bonke abanxuswe kanye lawe.
11 Nokuti mumwe nomumwe anozvikudza achaninipiswa, uye uyo anozvininipisa achakudzwa.”
Ngoba wonke umuntu oziphakamisayo uzakwehliswa, kuthi lowo ozehlisayo aphakanyiswe.”
12 Ipapo Jesu akati kuna iye akanga amukoka, “Kana wagadzira kudya kwamasikati kana chirariro, urege kukoka shamwari dzako, vanunʼuna vako kana hama dzako, kana vapfumi vawakavakidzana navo; kana ukadaro vangazokukokawo uye ukabva waripirwa.
UJesu wasesithi emanxuseni, “Nxa usenza idili emini loba kusihlwa unganxusi abangane bakho loba abafowenu kumbe izihlobo kumbe omakhelwane abanothileyo; ungenza njalo labo bangakunxusa, kuthi-ke lawe usuwenanisiwe.
13 Asi kana ukagadzira mabiko, ukoke varombo, zvirema, vanokamhina, namapofu,
Kodwa nxa usenza idili, nxusa abayanga, izilima, izigoga, iziphofu,
14 ipapo ucharopafadzwa. Kunyange vasina zvavanokupa, iwe ucharipirwa pakumuka kwavakarurama.”
lapho uzabusiswa. Loba bengasoze bakwenanise lawe, uzakwenaniswa ekuvukeni kwabalungileyo.”
15 Mumwe wavaye vakanga vagere pakudya naye akati anzwa izvi, akati kuna Jesu, “Akaropafadzwa munhu achagara zvake pamabiko muuMambo hwaMwari.”
Kwathi omunye walabo abahlezi etafuleni laye esekuzwile lokhu, wathi kuJesu, “Ubusisiwe lowomuntu ozakudla edilini embusweni kaNkulunkulu.”
16 Jesu akapindura akati, “Mumwe murume akanga achigadzira mabiko makuru akakoka vanhu vazhinji.
UJesu waphendula wathi, “Umuntu othile wayesenza idili elikhulu ngakho wanxusa abantu abanengi.
17 Panguva yamabiko, akatuma varanda vake kuti vandoudza vaya vakanga vakokwa kuti, ‘Uyai, nokuti zvose zvagadzirwa.’
Sekuyisikhathi sedili wathuma isisebenzi sakhe ukuyatshela ababenxusiwe ukuthi, ‘Wozani, konke sekulungile.’
18 “Asi vose vakatanga zvimwe chetezvo kupa zvikonzero. Wokutanga akati, ‘Ndichangotenga munda izvozvi, uye ndinofanira kundouona. Ndapota hangu, ndiregererei.’
Kodwa bonke baqala ukuxolisa. Owokuqala wathi, ‘Ngisanda kuthenga isivande ngakho kusamele ngiyesibona. Ngicela ungixolisele.’
19 “Mumwe akati, ‘Ndichangotenga nzombe dzamajoko mashanu izvozvi, uye ndiri kuenda kumbondodziedza. Ndapota ndiregererei.’
Omunye wathi, ‘Khathesi nje ngisanda kuthenga izipani ezinhlanu zenkabi, ungifica ngivele ngisendleleni yokuyazihlola. Ngicela ungixolisele.’
20 “Mumwezve akati, ‘Ndichangowana mukadzi izvozvi, saka handingauyi.’
Omunye njalo wathi, ‘Ngisanda kutshada nje khathesi ngakho angingeke ngize.’
21 “Muranda akadzoka akandozivisa izvi kuna tenzi wake. Ipapo muridzi wemba akatsamwa kwazvo akarayira muranda wake achiti, ‘Buda uende nokukurumidza munzira dzomumisha nedzomuguta unouya navarombo, zvirema, mapofu navanokamhina.’
Inceku yabuya yakubika konke lokhu enkosini yayo. Inkosi yathukuthela yasilaya inceku yayo yathi, ‘Hamba khathesi, uye ezitaladini lemikotweni yedolobho umeme abayanga, abagogekileyo, iziphofu labaqhulayo.’
22 “Muranda akati, ‘Ishe, zvamandirayira zvaitwa, asi nzvimbo ichiripo.’
Inceku yathi, ‘Nkosi, lokho okulayileyo sokwenziwe kodwa indawo isesekhona.’
23 “Ipapo tenzi akaudza muranda wake akati, ‘Buda uende kumigwagwa nokunzira dzomumaruwa undovakoka kuti vapinde, kuitira kuti imba yangu izare.
Inkosi yatshela inceku yayo yathi, ‘Hamba uye emigwaqweni lasezindleleni zemaphandleni uze labo ukuze indlu yami igcwale.
24 Ndinoti kwamuri, hakuna kana mumwe chete wavaya vakanga vakokwa acharavira mabiko angu.’”
Ngiyalitshela kakho loyedwa walabo bantu ababenxusiwe ozalizwa idili lami.’”
25 Vazhinji zhinji vakanga vachifamba naJesu, uye akatendeukira kwavari akati,
Abantu abanengi babehamba loJesu, wasephendukela kubo wathi:
26 “Kana munhu upi zvake achiuya kwandiri uye asingavengi baba vake namai vake, mukadzi wake navana vake, vanunʼuna vake nehanzvadzi dzake, hongu, kunyange noupenyu hwake, haangavi mudzidzi wangu.
“Nxa umuntu esiza kimi, kodwa engeke azonda uyise lonina, umkakhe labantwana, abafowabo labodadewabo, kanye lempilo yakhe uqobo, ngeke abe ngumfundi wami.
27 Uye ani naani asingatakuri muchinjikwa wake achinditevera haangavi mudzidzi wangu.
Lowo ongathwali isiphambano sakhe angilandele ngeke abe ngumfundi wami.
28 “Tomboti mumwe wenyu anoda kuvaka shongwe. Haatangi agara pasi agoongorora mutengo kuti aone kana ane mari inokwana kuipedza here?
Akesithi omunye wenu afune ukwakha umphotshongo. Kambe kazukuqala ahlale phansi abalise indleko ukuze abone ingabe ulayo yini imali yokuwuqeda na?
29 Nokuti kana akavaka hwaro akasagona kuipedza, munhu wose anomuona achamuseka,
Ngoba engakha isisekelo, kodwa ehluleke ukusiqeda, wonke okubonayo uzamhleka,
30 achiti, ‘Munhu uyu akatanga kuvaka asi akasagona kupedza.’
esithi, ‘Indoda le yaqalisa ukwakha, kodwa yehluleka ukuqeda.’
31 “Kana kuti tomboti mambo ava kuda kuenda kuhondo kundorwa nomumwe mambo. Haatangi kugara pasi here kuti aone kana angagona kundorwa navanhu zviuru gumi, achipikisana nouyo ari kuuya kuzorwa naye ane vanhu zviuru makumi maviri?
Kumbe sithi inkosi ilungisela ukuya empini isilwa lenye inkosi. Kayizukuqala ihlale phansi yini ihluzisise engqondweni ingabe yona ngamabutho ayo azinkulungwane ezilitshumi ingaqondana laleyo elezinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili na?
32 Kana asingagoni, achatuma nhume mumwe wacho achiri kure uye okumbira mashoko orugare kwaari.
Nxa ingeyikuma, izathuma amanxusa kuleyana isesekude icele uxolo.
33 Saizvozvowo, ani naani wenyu asingasiyi zvose zvaanazvo haangavi mudzidzi wangu.
Ngaleyondlela, loba ngubani phakathi kwenu ongadeli konke alakho ngeke abe ngumfundi wami.
34 “Munyu wakanaka, asi kana warasikirwa nokuvava kwawo, ucharungwa neiko?
Itswayi lilungile kodwa lingalahlekelwa yibumunyu balo, lingavuselelwa kanjani na?
35 Hauchabatsiri muvhu kana padutu romupfudze; unorasirwa kunze. “Ane nzeve dzokunzwa, ngaanzwe.”
Kaliwulungelanga lomhlabathi loba inqumbi yomvundiso kodwa liyalahlwa. Lowo olendlebe zokuzwa, kezwe.”
