Ruka 16
1 Zvino wakataurawo kuvadzidzi vake achiti: Kwakange kune umwe munhu mufumi, waiva nemutariri; iye wakapomerwa kwaari seanoparadza nhumbi dzake.
Yesu anawuza ophunzira ake kuti, “Panali munthu wina wachuma amene kapitawo wake anzake anamuneneza kuti amawononga chuma chakecho.
2 Zvino wakamudana akati kwaari: Chii ichi chandinonzwa nezvako? Rondedzera nezveutariri hwako; nokuti hauchazogoni kuva mutariri.
Choncho anamuyitana ndi kumufunsa kuti, ‘Kodi nʼchiyani chimene ndikumva za iwe? Pereka tsatanetsatane wa ntchito yako, pakuti supitirizanso kukhala kapitawo wanga.’
3 Zvino mutariri wakati mukati make: Ndichaitei, sezvo ishe wangu wonditorera utariri? Handigoni kuchera, kupemha ndinonyara.
“Kapitawoyo analingalira kuti, ‘Kodi tsopano ndidzachita chiyani? Bwana wanga andichotsa ntchito. Ine ndilibe mphamvu zokwanira zolimira, komanso ine ndimachita manyazi kupempha.
4 Ndaziva zvandichaita, kuti kana ndabudiswa pautariri, vandigamuchire mudzimba dzavo.
Ine ndikudziwa chimene ndidzachita kotero kuti, pamene ntchito yanga yatha pano, anthu adzandilandire mʼnyumba zawo.’
5 Zvino wakadanira kwaari umwe neumwe wavakange vane chikwereti kuna ishe wake, akati kune wekutanga: Une chikwereti chakadini kuna ishe wangu?
“Choncho iye anayitana aliyense amene anali ndi ngongole kwa bwana wake. Iye anafunsa woyamba, ‘Kodi uli ndi ngongole yotani kwa bwana wanga?’
6 Iye ndokuti: Zviyero zana zvemafuta. Ndokuti kwaari: Tora rugwaro rwako, ugare pasi nekukurumidza unyore makumi mashanu.
“Iye anayankha kuti, ‘Migolo yamafuta a olivi 800.’ “Kapitawo uja anamuwuza iye, ‘Tenga pamene unalemba ngongole yakoyo, khala pansi msanga ndipo lemba kuti ndi migolo 400.’
7 Ndokuti kune umwe: Newe, une chikwereti chakadini? Iye ndokuti: Zviyero zana zvezviyo. Akati kwaari: Tora rugwaro rwako, unyore makumi masere.
“Kenaka iye anafunsa wachiwiri kuti, ‘Nanga iwe uli ndi ngongole yotani?’ “Iye ayankha kuti madengu a tirigu 1,000. “Iye anati, ‘Tenga pamene unalemba ngongole yakoyo ndipo ulembepo 800.’
8 Zvino ishe wakarumbidza mutariri asakarurama, nokuti wakange aita nekuchenjera; nokuti vana venyika ino vakachenjera pazera ravo kukunda vana vechiedza. (aiōn g165)
“Bwana anayamikira kapitawo wosakhulupirikayo popeza anachita mochenjera. Pakuti anthu a dziko lino lapansi ndi ochenjera kwambiri akamachita zinthu ndi anthu ofanana nawo kuposa anthu a kuwunika. (aiōn g165)
9 Neni ndinoti kwamuri: Muzviitire shamwari nafuma wekusakarurama, kuti kana musingachagoni, vakugamuchirei mudzimba dzekusingaperi. (aiōnios g166)
Ine ndikukuwuzani inu, gwiritsani ntchito chuma cha dziko lapansi kuti mudzipezere nokha abwenzi, kuti pamene chatha mudzalandiridwe mʼmalo okhala amuyaya. (aiōnios g166)
10 Wakatendeka pachidikisa wakatendekawo pachikuru, neusakarurama pachidikisa haana kururamawo pachikuru.
“Amene akhulupirika pa zinthu zochepa akhoza kukhulupirikanso pa zinthu zambiri, ndipo amene sakhulupirika pa zinthu zochepa adzakhala wosakhulupirika pa zinthu zambiri.
11 Naizvozvo kana musina kutendeka pana fuma usakarurama, ndiani achakubatisai chinhu chechokwadi?
Ndipo ngati simunakhale okhulupirika pogwiritsa ntchito chuma cha dziko lapansi, ndani amene adzakusungitsani chuma chenicheni?
12 Uye kana musina kutendeka pane cheumwe, ndiani achakupai chenyu?
Ndipo ngati simunakhale okhulupirika ndi chuma cha mwini wake, ndani amene adzakupatsani katundu wanuwanu?
13 Hakuna muranda anogona kubatira madzitenzi maviri; nokuti zvimwe achavenga umwe, ndokuda umwe; kana kuti achanamatira kune umwe, agozvidza umwe. Hamugoni kubatira Mwari nafuma.
“Palibe wantchito amene angatumikire mabwana awiri. Mwina iye adzadana ndi wina ndi kukonda winayo, kapena adzakhala wodzipereka kwa wina ndi kumunyoza winayo. Inu simungathe kutumikira Mulungu komanso ndalama nthawi imodzi.”
14 Zvino neVaFarisi vakange vari vadi vemari, vakanzwa zvinhu izvi zvese, vakamuseka.
Afarisi amene ankakonda ndalama atamva zimenezi anamuseka Yesu.
15 Zvino wakati kwavari: Imwi ndimwi vanozviruramisa pamberi pevanhu, asi Mwari anoziva moyo yenyu; nokuti icho chinokwiridzirwa pakati pevanhu, chinyangadzo pamberi paMwari.
Yesu anawawuza kuti, “Inu ndi amene mumadzilungamitsa nokha pamaso pa anthu, koma Mulungu amadziwa mitima yanu. Zinthu zimene anthu amaziyesa zopambana, ndi zonyansa pamaso pa Mulungu.
16 Murairo nevaporofita zvaivapo kusvikira kuna Johwani; kubva ipapo ushe hwaMwari hunoparidzwa, uye umwe neumwe anosenerera mahuri.
“Malamulo ndi Aneneri zinagwira ntchito mpaka nthawi ya Yohane. Kuyambira nthawi imeneyo, Uthenga Wabwino wa ufumu wa Mulungu ukulalikidwa, ndipo aliyense akuyesetsa mwamphamvu kuti alowemo.
17 Asi zvakareruka kuti denga nenyika zvipfuure, pakuti chidodzi chimwe chemurairo chiwe.
Nʼkwapafupi kuti kumwamba ndi dziko lapansi zichoke kulekana ndi kuti kalemba kakangʼono kachoke mʼMalamulo.
18 Ani nani anoramba mukadzi wake akawana umwe anoita upombwe; uye ani nani anowana wakarambwa kumurume anoita upombwe.
“Aliyense amene asiya mkazi wake ndi kukakwatira mkazi wina akuchita chigololo, ndipo mwamuna amene akwatira mkazi wosiyidwayo akuchitanso chigololo.”
19 Kwakange kune umwe munhu mufumi, waipfeka zvine ruvara rwehute nemicheka yakaisvonaka, nekufara paumbozha mazuva ese.
“Panali munthu wachuma amene ankavala zovala zofiirira za mtengowapatali ndipo ankakhala moyo wachisangalalo tsiku lililonse.
20 Zvino kwakange kune umwe mupemhi wainzi Razaro, wakange akaiswa pasuwo rake azere maronda,
Pa khomo la mpanda wake ankagonekapo munthu wopempha wotchedwa Lazaro, wazilonda thupi lonse
21 uye waishuva kugutswa nezvimedu zvaiwa patafura yemufumi; asi kunyange imbwa dzaiuya dzichinanzva maronda ake.
ndipo ankafunitsitsa atadya zomwe zinkagwa pansi kuchokera pamene munthu wolemerayo amadyerapo. Agalu ankabweranso ndi kumanyambita zilonda zake.
22 Zvino zvakaitika kuti mupemhi wakafa, akatakurirwa nevatumwa kuchifuva chaAbhurahama; mufumi akafawo, akavigwa.
“Nthawi inafika imene wopemphayo anamwalira ndipo angelo anamunyamula nakamuyika mʼmanja mwa Abrahamu. Munthu wolemerayo anamwaliranso ndipo anayikidwa mʼmanda.
23 Zvino ari muhadhesi wakasimudza meso ake, ari pamarwadzo, akaona Abhurahama ari kure, naRazaro ari pachifuva chake. (Hadēs g86)
Ali mʼgehena kuzunzika, anakweza maso ake ndipo anaona Abrahamu ali ndi Lazaro pambali pake. (Hadēs g86)
24 Iye ndokudanidzira akati: Baba Abhurahama, ndinzwirei tsitsi, mutume Razaro, kuti anyike muromo wemunwe wake mumvura, atonhodze rurimi rwangu; nokuti ndinorwadziswa mumurazvo uyu.
Ndipo anafuwula kwa iye kuti, ‘Abambo Abrahamu, mundimvere chisoni ine ndipo mutumeni Lazaroyo kuti aviyike msonga ya chala chake mʼmadzi kuti aziziritse lilime langa, chifukwa ndikumva ululu mʼmoto muno.’
25 Asi Abhurahama wakati: Mwana, rangarira kuti iwe muupenyu hwako wakagamuchira zvakanaka zvako, saizvozvo naRazaro zvakaipa; asi zvino iye anonyaradzwa, uye iwe unorwadziwa.
“Koma Abrahamu anayankha kuti, ‘Mwanawe kumbukira kuti nthawi yamoyo wako unalandira zinthu zako zabwino, pamene Lazaro analandira zinthu zoyipa, koma tsopano akusangalatsidwa kuno ndipo iwe uli mʼmazunzo.
26 Uye pamusoro peizvi zvese, pakati pedu nemwi pane mukaha mukuru wakaiswa, kuti vanoda kuyambuka kubva kuno vachiuya kwamuri vakonewe, neveko varege kuyambukira kwatiri.
Ndipo kuwonjezera pa zonsezi, pakati pa inu ndi ife pali chiphompho chachikulu chimene chinayikidwa, kotero kuti amene akufuna kubwera kumeneko sangathe, kapena palibe amene angawoloke kuchokera kumeneko kudzafika kuno.’
27 Iye ndokuti: Naizvozvo ndinokukumbirisai, baba, kuti mumutumire kuimba yababa vangu,
“Iye anayankha kuti, ‘Ndipo ndikupemphani inu, abambo, mutumeni Lazaro ku nyumba ya abambo anga,
28 nokuti ndine vanakomana vamai vangu vashanu, kuti anyatsovapupurira, zvimwe ivowo vangauya panzvimbo ino yemarwadzo.
pakuti ine ndili ndi abale asanu. Lolani iye akawachenjeze kotero kuti asadzabwere kumalo ano amazunzo.’
29 Abhurahama akati kwaari: Mozisi nevaporofita vanavo; ngavanzwe ivo.
“Abrahamu anayankha kuti, ‘Ali ndi Mose ndi Aneneri; aleke amvere iwo.’
30 Iye ndokuti: Kwete, baba Abhurahama; asi kana umwe akaenda kwavari kubva kuvakafa, vachatendeuka.
“Iye anati, ‘Ayi, bambo Abrahamu, koma ngati wina ochokera kwa akufa adzapita kwa iwo, adzatembenuka mtima.’
31 Asi wakati kwaari: Kana vasingateereri Mozisi nevaporofita, havangatendiswi kunyange kana umwe akamuka kubva kuvakafa.
“Anati kwa iye, ‘Ngati iwo samvera Mose ndi Aneneri, sadzakhulupirira ngakhale wina atauka kwa akufa.’”
