ULukha 22
1 Kwasekusondela umkhosi wesinkwa esingelamvubelo, othiwa liphasika.
Shikukuu sha mikate jangatagwa ngedule, shishemwa pashaka, shatendaga bhandishila.
2 Abapristi abakhulu lababhali basebedinga ukuthi bangambulala njani; ngoba babesesaba abantu.
Ashikalongolele bha bhaabhishila na bhaajiganya bha shalia, bhatendaga loleyanga mwa kwabhulajila a Yeshu, ikabhe bhatendaga kwaajogopanga bhandunji.
3 USathane wasengena kuJudasi othiwa nguIskariyothi, owayengowenani labalitshumi lambili.
Bhai, Lishetani akwaajinjilaga a Yuda Ishikaliote, bhaliji munkumbi gwa mitume kumi na bhabhili bhala.
4 Wasesuka wayakhuluma labapristi abakhulu lezinduna ngokuthi angamnikela njani kubo.
A Yuda gubhapite kunguluka na ashikalongolele bha bhaabhishila na bhakulungwanji bha manjola, shibhapinga kwaendebhuka a Yeshu.
5 Basebethokoza, basebevumelana ukumnika imali.
Nabhalabhonji guyaanonyelenje nigubhalegenenje kwaapa mmbiya.
6 Wasevuma, njalo wadinga ithuba elihle lokumnikela kubo lingekho ixuku.
A Yuda gubhakundile, gubhatemi nkuloleya malanga ga mmbone ga kwaatendebhuka a Yeshu gwangali kumumanya bhandu bhabhagwinji.
7 Lwaselufika usuku lwesinkwa esingelamvubelo, okwakumele kuhlatshwe ngalo iphasika.
Bhai, lyubha lya mikate jangatagwa ngedule guliishile. Lyubhalyo lya ingwa mwana jwa ngondolo jwa pashaka.
8 Wasethuma uPetro loJohane, esithi: Hambani liyesilungisela iphasika, ukuze sidle.
Kwa nneyo a Yeshu gubhaatumilenje a Petili na a Yowana, gubhaalugulilenje, “Nnjendangane nkakolokoyanje shalya tulye pashaka.”
9 Basebesithi kuye: Uthanda ukuthi silungise ngaphi?
Gubhaabhushiyenje, “Punkupinga tukakolokoye kwei?”
10 Wasesithi kubo: Khangelani, kuzakuthi selingenile emzini, umuntu uzahlangana lani ethwele imbiza yamanzi; limlandele endlini azangena kuyo.
Gubhaalugulilenje, “Mpilikananje! Pushinnjendangane kunnjini, shinng'imikananje na jwannume jumo ajigele lulo lwa mashi. Munkagulanje mpaka nnyumba jashaajinjile.
11 Beselisithi kumninindlu: Uthi uMfundisi kuwe: Ingaphi indlu yezihambi, lapho engingadlela khona iphasika labafundi bami?
Mwaalugulilanje bhayene nyumba, ‘Bhaajiganya bhanakummuya, jili kwei kati jibhapinga lila pashaka na bhaajiganywa bhabho?’
12 Yena-ke uzalitshengisa indlu enkulu ephezulu eyendlelweyo; lilungise khona.
Na bhenebho shibhannangulanje kati jikulungwa kugolopa jikonjeleywe, nnkolokoyanje mwenemo.”
13 Bahamba-ke bafica njengokutsho kwakhe kubo; basebelungisa iphasika.
Bhai, gubhapitengene, gubhaimenenje indu yowe malinga shibhabhalanjilwenje na a Yeshu, gubhakolokoyenje shalya sha pashaka.
14 Kwathi selifikile ihola, wahlala phansi, labaphostoli abalitshumi lambili belaye.
Malanga gakatimilileje, a Yeshu gubhatemi pamo na mitume bhabho nkulya shalya.
15 Wasesithi kubo: Ngokunxwanela nginxwanele ukudla lani leliphasika ngingakahlupheki;
Gubhaalugulilenje, “Njilokolila kaje kulya pashakaji pamo na mmanganya nganabhe potekwa.
16 ngoba ngithi kini: Kangisoze ngidle futhi kulo, lize ligcwaliseke embusweni kaNkulunkulu.
Pabha ngajilya kabhili mpaka penepo pushijimalile mu Upalume gwa a Nnungu.”
17 Wasethatha inkezo, esebongile wathi: Thathani lokhu, beselisabelana;
Kungai gubhatolile shikombe sha divai, gubhatendile eja, gubhashite, “Ntolanje nnepesheyane mmowe.
18 ngoba ngithi kini: Kangisoze nginathe okwesithelo sevini, kuze kufike umbuso kaNkulunkulu.
Pabha ngunakummalanjilanga, ngang'wa kabhili divai ja shabhibhu mpaka Upalume gwa a Nnungu pushuishe.”
19 Wasethatha isinkwa, esebongile wasihlephuna, wabanika, esithi: Lokhu kungumzimba wami, owanikelelwa lina; lokhu kwenzeni ukungikhumbula.
Kungai, gubhatolile nkate, gubhatendile eja, gubhaugebhenye, gubhaapelenje bhalinkuti, “Sheshino shiilu shangu shipinga shoywa kwa ligongo lyenunji. Ntendanje nnei kwa ngumbushila nne.”
20 Ngokunjalo lenkezo emva kokudla, esithi: Inkezo le iyisivumelwano esitsha egazini lami, elichithelwa lina.
Nneyo peyo bhakalyanganjeje gubhatolile shikombe, gubhashite, “Ashino shikombe shino, sha malagano ga ambi gakong'ondelwa na minyai jangu jijitika kwa ligongo lyenunji.
21 Kodwa khangelani, isandla songinikelayo silami etafuleni.
“Ikabheje, nnolanje! Andendebhuka jula pali na nne pamesha pepano.
22 Ngoba isibili iNdodana yomuntu ihamba njengokumisiweyo; kodwa maye kulowomuntu enikelwa nguye!
Kweli Mwana juka Mundu anakwenda bhulagwa malinga shiipanjilwe, ikabheje ole, mundu andendebhuka.”
23 Bona basebeqala ukubuzana ukuthi kambe ngubani kubo ozakwenza lokho.
Penepo gubhatandubhenje kubhuyana ashaayene, gani shatende yeneyo.
24 Kwavela lokuphikisana phakathi kwabo okokuthi nguwuphi kubo ongathiwa ngomkhulu.
Na kabhili nikoposhela mitau munkumbi gwabonji, kuti gani shabhe nkulungwa kupunda bhananji.
25 Wasesithi kubo: Amakhosi abezizwe azibusa ngobulukhuni, leziphathamandla zazo zithiwa ngabasizi.
A Yeshu gubhaabhalanjilenje, “Bhapalume bha ilambo bhanakwaatagwalanga bhandu bhabhonji kwa mashili, ikabhe pubhaashemwanga ‘Bhamituka.’
26 Kodwa lina kakungabi njalo; kodwa omkhulu phakathi kwenu kabe njengomncinyane, longumkhokheli njengosebenzayo.
Ikabheje mmanganya, inabhe nneyo, ali nkulungwa jwenunji anapinjikwa abhe nshoko jwa bhowe, na ali kalongolele abhe malinga ntumishi.
27 Ngoba nguwuphi omkhulu, lowo ohleziyo ekudleni kumbe lowo osebenzayo? Kayisilowo yini ohlezi ekudleni? Kodwa mina ngiphakathi kwenu njengaye osebenzayo.
Igala jwei ali nkulungwa, atama kulya shalya, eu akolokoya jula? Penepo nkulungwa ni atama kulya! Ikabheje nne munkumbi gwetu muno, ni malinga ntumishi.”
28 Lina-ke liyibo ababehlezi lami ezilingweni zami;
“Mmanganya ntemingene na nne mobha ga lingwa kwangu,
29 njalo mina ngilimisele umbuso, njengoba uBaba engimisele,
na malinga atati shibhangamwiye upalume, nneyo peyo numbe nne ngunakunkamuyanga mmanganya.
30 ukuthi lidle linathe etafuleni lami embusweni wami, lihlale ezihlalweni zobukhosi, lisehlulela izizwe ezilitshumi lambili zakoIsrayeli.
Nkupinga nniyanganje na papila pamesha jangu, muupalume gwangu, na shintamangane mwiitengu ya ukulungwa kugaukumula makabhila kumi na gabhili ga Ishilaeli.”
31 INkosi yasisithi: Simoni, Simoni, khangela, uSathane ulifunisisile, ukuze alihlungule njengamabele;
A Yeshu gubhashite “A Shimoni, a Shimoni! Mpilikane! Lishetani anapinga ampembulanje mmanganya mbuti ngano.
32 kodwa mina ngikukhulekele, ukuze ukholo lwakho lungapheli; wena-ke nxa usuphendukile uqinise abazalwane bakho.
Ikabheje nne ninnjujile mmwe a Shimoni, nkupinga ngulupai jenu jinapungushe. Na mmwe pushimmujilepo mwaataganje ntima ashaapwenu.”
33 Kodwa wathi kuye: Nkosi, lentolongweni lekufeni ngilungele ukuya khona lawe.
Na a Petili gubhaajangwile, “Mmakulungwa, nne apano nili tayali kwenda tabhwa kumagelesha, nkali kuwa na mmwe.”
34 Kodwa yena wathi: Ngiyakutshela, Petro, iqhude kaliyikukhala lamuhla, ungakaphiki kathathu ukuthi uyangazi.
A Yeshu gubhaajangwile, “Ngunakummalanjila mmwe a Petili, lelo lipongo likanabhe kongobhela shinngane patatu.”
35 Wasesithi kubo: Mhla ngilithuma lingelamxhaka lesikhwama lamanyathela, laswela yini ulutho? Basebesithi: Kasiswelanga lutho.
Kungai a Yeshu gubhaabhushiyenje bhaajiganywa bhabho, “Punantumilenje gwangali nng'uko gwa ela, wala nkobha gwa ilatu, mwatubhilwenje shoshowe?” Gubhajangwilenje, “Nng'oo twanngatubhilwa.”
36 Wasesithi kubo: Kodwa khathesi lowo olomxhaka kawuthathe, ngokunjalo lesikhwama; lalowo ongelakho, athengise isembatho sakhe, athenge inkemba.
Gubhaalugulilenje, “Ikabheje nnaino, jwene akwete nng'uko gwa ela jula ajigale, na akwete nkobha, nneyo peyo. Na jojowe jwangali upanga, aushe likoti lyakwe aume gumo.
37 Ngoba ngithi kini, kusamele kugcwaliseke kimi lokhu okulotshiweyo, ukuthi: Wabalwa kanye lezoni; ngoba lalezizinto eziqondane lami zilesiphetho.
Ngunakummalanjilanga, ganapinjikwa gatimilile majandiko gaanugula nne kuti, ‘Bhashinkubhikwa likundi limo na bhaalebhanga,’ elo, gowe gajandikwe kunugula nne ganapinjikwa gamalile.”
38 Basebesithi: Nkosi, khangela, nanzi inkemba ezimbili. Wasesithi kubo: Kwanele.
Na bhalabhonji gubhashitenje, “Mmakulungwa, nnole, apano jipali mipanga jibhili.” Na bhalabho gubhashite, “Bhai shijipwae.”
39 Wasephuma waya entabeni yeMihlwathi njengokwejwayela; labafundi bakhe bamlandela.
Na malinga shibhayobhelele, a Yeshu gubhapite kushitumbi sha Misheituni, bhaajiganywa bhabho gubhaakagwilenje.
40 Esefikile kuleyondawo, wathi kubo: Khulekani ukuthi lingangeni ekulingweni.
Bhakaikanganeje kweneko gubhaalugulilenje, “Mwaajuganje a Nnungu nnajinjilanga mmalinjilo.”
41 Yena wasemonyuka kubo okungaba libanga lokuphosa ilitshe, waguqa phansi ngamadolo wakhuleka,
Kungai gubhaaleshilenje bhaajiganywa bhabho, gubhapite kwa taliya kashoko kwa leshela mundu liganga kuika, gubhatindibhele nkwaajuga a Nnungu
42 esithi: Baba, uba uthanda, susa linkezo kimi; kodwa-ke kungenziwa intando yami, kodwa eyakho.
bhalinkuti, “Atati, ibhaga nkupinga, nnjosheye shikombe sha mbotekoshi, nkali nneyo, itendeshe malinga shinkupinga mmwe, na wala nngabha malinga shingupinga nne.”
43 Kwabonakala kuye ingilosi evela ezulwini imqinisa.
Malaika kukopoka kunnungu akwaakoposhelega kukwaataga ntima.
44 Esesesizini olunzima, wakhuleka kakhulu. Njalo izithukuthuku zakhe zaba njengamathonsi egazi zawela emhlabathini.
Bhali mmboteko ya kaje, gubhamindile kwaajuga a Nnungu, na matukuta gabho nibha mbuti mandondo ga minyai, galindolishila pai.
45 Esesukumile emkhulekweni, weza kubafundi bakhe, wabafica belele ngenxa yokudabuka,
Bhakaajuganjeje a Nnungu, gubhabhujile kubhaajiganywa bhabho, gubhaaimenenje bhagonilenje lugono kwa totoshela nkuinjika.
46 wasesithi kubo: Lilaleleni? Vukani likhuleke, ukuze lingangeni ekulingweni.
Gubhaabhushiyenje, “Pakubha nnagonanga? Nnjumukanje maajuganje a Nnungu, nnajinjilanga mmalinjilo.”
47 Kwathi esakhuluma, khangela, ixuku, lalowo okuthiwa nguJudasi, omunye wabalitshumi lambili, ehamba phambi kwabo, wasesondela kuJesu ukumanga.
A Yeshu bhakanabhe peya kubheleketa, likundi lya bhandunji guliishe lililongoywa na Yuda, bha munkumbi gwa kumi na bhabhili bhala. A Yuda gubhaabhandishile a Yeshu nkupinga kwaalamba.
48 Kodwa uJesu wathi kuye: Judasi, uyayinikela yini iNdodana yomuntu ngokuyanga?
Ikabheje a Yeshu gubhaabhalanjile, “A Yuda! Bhuli, nnakuntendebhuka Mwana juka Mundu kwa kunnamba?”
49 Kwathi labo ababengakuye sebebona okuzakwenzeka bathi kuye: Nkosi, sigadle yini ngenkemba?
Bhaajiganywa bhabho bhakabhonanjeje nneila gubhashitenje, “Mmakulungwa, tutole mipanga jetu twaakapanje?”
50 Omunye wabo wasegadla inceku yompristi omkhulu, waquma indlebe yayo yokunene.
Na jumo gwaleshele upanga mukantumishi jwa bhakulungwa bha bhaabhishila, gwankatile likutu lya kunnilo.
51 Kodwa uJesu waphendula wathi: Yekelani kuze kube yilokhu. Wasethinta indlebe yayo, wayisilisa.
Penepo a Yeshu gubhashite, “Bhai nnekanje!” Gubhalikwashiye likutu lila, gubhannamiye.
52 UJesu wasesithi kubapristi abakhulu lezinduna zethempeli labadala ababeze kuye: Liphume njengokuyamelana lomphangi yini lilezinkemba lezinduku?
Kungai a Yeshu gubhaabhalanjilenje ashikalongolele bha bhaabhishila, na ashikalongolele bha bhalinda bha liekalu, na bhanangulungwa bhajilengene kukwakamula, “Bhuli, nnshikwiyangana kungamula na mipanga na ndonga mbuti nne nankupokonyola?
53 Nxa bengilani insuku ngensuku ethempelini, kalelulanga izandla ukumelana lami; kodwa leli lihola lenu, lamandla obumnyama.
Mobha gowe gunaliji na mmanganya nniekalu nkangamulanga nkangamulangaga. Ikabheje gegano ni malanga genunji, malanga ga upalume gwa lubhindu.”
54 Sebembambile bamqhuba, bamusa endlini yompristi omkhulu. UPetro waselandela ekhatshana.
Bhai, gubhaakamulenje, gubhaatolilenje kwendanabhonji kwa akalongolele bha bhaabhishila. A Petili gubhakagwile nnyuma kwa kwaataliya.
55 Sebebasile umlilo phakathi kweguma, sebehlezi phansi ndawonye, uPetro wahlala phakathi kwabo.
Moto gwashinkukumbanywa pakati lugwani, gwaatemingene penepo pamo, na a Petili pubhaaliji popo.
56 Kodwa incekukazi ethile imbona ehlezi emlilweni, yamjolozela, yathi: Lumuntu laye ube laye.
Ntumishi jumo jwankongwe gwabhabhwene a Petili bhatemi tome pamoto, gwabhakolondolesheye meyo, nigwashite, “Abha bhandubha nnepeila pubhaliji na a Yeshu.”
57 Kodwa wamphika, wathi: Mama, kangimazi.
Ikabheje a Petili gubhakanile bhalinkuti, “Gwee! Nne ngakwaamanya.”
58 Emva kwesikhatshana omunye wasembona wathi: Lawe ungomunye wabo. Kodwa uPetro wathi: Ndoda, kangisuye.
Kashokope, mundu juna akwaabhonaga a Petili, nigwashite, “Numbe mmwe ni nkumbi gula.” Ikabheje a Petili gubhajangwile “Ika mmwe, nngabha nne!”
59 Sekungaba kwedlule ihola elilodwa, omunye waqinisa, esithi: Isibili laye ube laye; ngoba futhi ungumGalili.
Ikapiteje malanga ga shaa jimo, mundu juna gwakomelesheye, “Kweli abha bhandubha pubhaliji na a Yeshu, pabha na bhalabho Bhagalilaya.”
60 Kodwa uPetro wathi: Ndoda, kangazi ukuthi uthini. Njalo khonokho esakhuluma lakhala iqhude.
Ikabheje a Petili gubhashite, “Ika mmwe, ngakwiimanya inkubheleketayo!” Na popo pepo, bhakanabhe maliya kubheleketa, lipongo gulikongobhele.
61 INkosi yasiphenduka yamkhangela uPetro. UPetro waselikhumbula ilizwi leNkosi, ukuthi yakhuluma njani kuye isithi: Iqhude lingakakhali, uzangiphika kathathu.
Bhakulungwa gubhatendebhwishe nikwaalola a Petili, na bhalabho a Petili gubhakumbushile gubhabhalanjilwe na Bhakulungwa, “Lipongo likanabhe kongobhela lelo, shinngane patatu.”
62 UPetro wasephuma phandle wakhala kabuhlungu.
Penepo gubhakopweshe palanga gubhagutile kwa kaje.
63 Lamadoda ayembambile uJesu amklolodela, amtshaya.
Bhandunji bhaabhikaangaga a Yeshu muulinda, gubhaakomilenje na kwaalembula.
64 Amembesa, amtshaya ubuso, asembuza, esithi: Profetha! Ngubani okutshayileyo?
Gubhaatabhilenje shimbala kumeyo, nikwabhuyanga, “Nnondole! Ntulugulile gani ankomile.”
65 Akhuluma lezinye izinto ezinengi kuye ehlambaza.
Gubhaabheleketelenje malobhe gamagwinji ga matukano.
66 Kwathi sekusile, abadala babantu babuthana, labapristi abakhulu lababhali, basebemusa emphakathini wabo, bathi:
Kukasheje, bhanangulungwa gubhaimenenje yani, ashikalongolele bha bhaabhishila na bhaajiganya bha shalia. A Yeshu gubhapelekwe kulukumbilo.
67 Uba unguKristu, sitshele. Wasesithi kubo: Uba ngilitshela, kalisoze likholwe;
Nigubhashitenje, “Ibhaga mmwe a Kilishitu ntubhalanjile?” A Yeshu gubhajangwile, “Nkali nimmalanjilangaga, nkakulupalilanga,
68 njalo uba lami ngilibuza, kalisoze lingiphendule, loba lingikhulule.
nkali nimmuyanje nkanyangulanga.
69 Kusukela khathesi iNdodana yomuntu izahlala ngakwesokunene samandla kaNkulunkulu.
Ikabheje kutandubhila nnaino, Mwana juka Mundu shatame kunkono nnilo gwa Bhakulungwa a Nnungu Bhakwete Mashili.”
70 Basebesithi bonke: Kanti uyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu? Wasesithi kubo: Kutsho lina ukuthi ngiyiyo.
Penepo bhowenji nigubhashitenje “Igala tutende mmwe bhanabhabho a Nnungu?” Na bhalabho gubhashite, “Mmanganya ninkutinji Nne ni Jwenejo.”
71 Basebesithi: Pho sisafunelani ubufakazi? Ngoba sesizizwele uqobo lwethu emlonyeni wakhe.
Na bhalabhonji nigubhashitenje, “Bhuli, tupinga ukong'ondelo guna? Twaashayene tupilikene bhalibheleketa pa kang'wa jabho bhayene.”
