UMathewu 6
1 Qaphelani ukuthi umsebenzi wenu womusa lingawenzi phambi kwabantu ukuze libonwe yibo; nxa kungenjalo, alilamvuzo kuYihlo osemazulwini.
“Mwiteiganje nnatendanje indu ya mmbone pa bhandu nkupinga bhammonanje. Nngabha nneyo, Ainabhenunji bha kunnungu bhakampanganga upo.
2 Ngakho nxa usenza umsebenzi womusa, ungakhalisi uphondo phambi kwakho, njengokwenza kwabazenzisi emasinagogeni lezindleleni, ukuze badunyiswe ngabantu; ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Sebewemukele umvuzo wabo.
“Bhai, punkunnjangutila jwangali shindu, nnagombe mmbila. Nnatende malinga shibhaatendanga bhagulumba mmashinagogi na mmipanda, nkupinga bhalumbililwanje na bhandunji. Kweli ngunakunnugulilanga, bhene bhanganyabho bhapatilenje upo yabhonji.
3 Kodwa wena nxa usenza umsebenzi womusa isandla sakho sokhohlo kasingakwazi esikwenzayo esokunene sakho,
Ikabheje punkunnjangutila mundu jwangali shindu, nkali mundu jwa tome na mmwe, anamumanye inkutenda.
4 ukuze umsebenzi wakho womusa ube sekusithekeni; njalo uYihlo obona ekusithekeni, yena uzakuvuza obala.
Nshoye mbepei yenu kwa nng'iyo, na Ainabhenu bhakwiibhona indu ya nng'iyo, shibhanng'upe.
5 Lalapho likhuleka, lingabi njengabazenzisi, ngoba bathanda ukukhuleka bemi emasinagogeni lemahlanganweni endlela, ukuze babonwe ngabantu; ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Sebewemukele umvuzo wabo.
“Punkwaajuganga a Nnungu, nnatendanje malinga bhagulumba. Pabha bhanganyabho, pubhajuganga bhanaapinganga kujima mmashinagogi na nnyenje mipanda nkupinga bhalolwanje na bhandunji. Kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, bhalabhonji bhapatilenje upo yabhonji.
6 Kodwa wena nxa ukhuleka, ngena endlini yakho yensitha, ubusuvala umnyango wakho, ukhuleke kuYihlo osensitha; njalo uYihlo obona ekusithekeni uzakuvuza obala.
Ikabheje mmwe punkwaajuga a Nnungu, nnjinjile kukati jenu, nng'ugale nnango, mwaajuje Ainabhenu bhakabhonekana. Na bhalabho Ainabhenu bhakwibhona indu ya nng'iyo, shibhanng'upe.
7 Njalo uba likhuleka lingathemelezi njengabezizwe; ngoba bacabanga ukuthi bazakuzwiwa ngokukhuluma kwabo okunengi.
“Punkwaajuganga a Nnungu, nnajobhelanje malinga bhandunji bhangabha Bhayaudi. Pabha pubhaaganishiyanga kuti a Nnungu shibhaapilikanilanje kwa ligongo lya gwinji gwa malobhe gabhonji.
8 Ngakho lingafanani labo; ngoba uYihlo uyakwazi elikuswelayo, lingakaceli kuye.
Nnabhanganje malinga bhanganyabho. Pabha Ainabhenunji bhaimanyi inkupinganga, nkali nkanabhe kwaajuganga.
9 Ngakho lina khulekani ngokunje: Baba wethu osemazulwini, kalihlonitshwe ibizo lakho;
Bhai, nnjuganje nnei, ‘Atati nni kunnungu, Lina lyenu likuywe.
10 umbuso wakho kawuze; intando yakho kayenziwe, lemhlabeni njengezulwini;
Upalume gwenu guishe. Linkupinga mmwe litendeshe pa shilambolyo malinga shiikutendeka kunnunguko.
11 siphe lamuhla ukudla kwethu kwensuku zonke;
Ntupe lelo shalya sha togolela lelo.
12 njalo usithethelele amacala ethu, njengalokhu lathi sibathethelela abalamacala kithi;
Ntuleshelele itulebhile, malinga na uwe shitukwaaleshelelanga bhatulebhilenje.
13 njalo ungasingenisi ekulingweni, kodwa usikhulule ebubini. Ngoba umbuso ungowakho lamandla lenkazimulo kuze kube nini lanini. Ameni.
Nnatubhishe mmalinjilo, ikabheje ntuembuye naka Lishetani jula. Pabha upalume ni gwenu na mashili na ukonjelo pitipiti. Amina.’
14 Ngoba uba lithethelela abantu iziphambeko zabo, uYihlo osezulwini uzalithethelela lani.
“Pabha Mwaaleshelelangaga bhandu ibhannebhilenje, nneyo peyo Ainabhenunji bha kunnungu shibhanneshelelanje innebhilenje.
15 Kodwa uba lingathetheleli abantu iziphambeko zabo, loYihlo kayikulithethelela iziphambeko zenu.
Ikabheje nkaaleshelelanje bhandunji yambi yabhonji, na bhalabho Ainabhenunji bhakanneshelelanga innebhilenje.
16 Futhi nxa lizila ukudla, lingabi lobuso obudanileyo njengabazenzisi; ngoba benyukumalisa ubuso babo, ukuze babonakale ebantwini ukuthi bazilile; ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Sebewemukele umvuzo wabo.
“Punkutabhanga, nnaumalanje kumeyo malinga bhagulumba. Bhanaumalanga kumeyo nkupinga bhabhonekanje na bhandu kuti bhashitabhanga. Kweli ngunakummalanjilanga bhanganyabho, bhapatilenje upo yabhonji.
17 Kodwa wena nxa uzila ukudla, gcoba ikhanda lakho, ugeze ubuso bakho,
Ikabheje mmwe punkutabha, nnabhe kumeyo na mpakale mauta muntwe.
18 ukuze ungabonakali ebantwini ukuthi uzilile ukudla, kodwa kuYihlo osekusithekeni; njalo uYihlo obona ekusithekeni uzakuvuza obala.
Nkupinga bhandunji bhanamumanyanje kuti nnatabha, ikabheje mmanyishepe na Ainabhenu bhakaabhoneka, nabhalabho Ainabhenu bhakwiibhona ya nng'iyo shibhanng'upe.
19 Lingazibekeli impahla eziligugu emhlabeni, lapho inundu lokuthomba okona khona, lalapho amasela afohlela khona ebe;
“Nnaibhishilanje shibhiko pa shilambolyo pano, ipukuu na nkubha inaangabhanya na bhagwii bhanakaaanga nijibha.
20 kodwa zibekeleni izinto eziligugu ezulwini, lapho inundu lokuthomba okungoni khona, lalapho amasela angafohleli khona ebe.
Ikabhe mwibhishilanje indu yenunji kunnungu kwikaangabhanika na ipukuu na nkubha, nkali bhagwii bhakakaanga nijibha.
21 Ngoba lapho okukhona impahla yenu eligugu, lenhliziyo yenu izakuba lapho.
Pabha pushili shibhiko shenu, na ntima gwenu shugubhe popo.
22 Isibane somzimba yilihlo; ngakho uba ilihlo lakho liphilile, umzimba wakho wonke uzagcwala ukukhanya;
“Liyo mbuti kandili ja shiilu, bhai liyo libhaga lyalikoto, shililangaye shiilu shenu showe.
23 kodwa uba ilihlo lakho lilibi, umzimba wakho wonke uzakuba lobumnyama. Ngakho uba ukukhanya okuphakathi kwakho kuyibumnyama, umnyama mkhulu kangakanani!
Ikabheje liyo libhaga lilwele shiilu shenu showe shishibhe nnubhindu. Bhai, ibhaga shilangaya shili nkati jenu shilepelaga kulangaya, shilubhe lubhindu lwa punda!
24 Kakho ongakhonza amakhosi amabili; ngoba uzazonda enye, athande enye; kumbe uzabambelela kwenye, adelele enye. Lingekhonze uNkulunkulu loMamona.
“Jwakwa ntumwa akombola kwaatumishilanga bhakulungwanji bhabhili, pabha shanshime jumo nikumpinga junajo, eu shalongane naka jumo nikumpetekuya junajo. Nkakombola kwaatumishila a Nnungu na tumishila mali.
25 Ngakho ngithi kini: Lingaphisekeli impilo yenu, ukuthi lizakudlani lokuthi lizanathani; lomzimba wenu, ukuthi lizakwembathani. Impilo kayidluli yini ukudla, lomzimba izembatho?
“Kwa nneyo ngunakummalanjilanga, nnakolanje lipamba ga gumi gwenunji, kuti nniyanganje nndi eu mpapilanje nndi, wala ga iilu yenunji kuti nng'walanje nndi. Bhuli, gumi ukapunda shalya? Bhuli, shiilu shikapunda iwalo?
26 Khangelani inyoni zezulu, ukuthi kazihlanyeli njalo kazivuni, kazibutheli eziphaleni; kanti uYihlo osezulwini uyazondla; lina kalizidluli kakhulu yini?
Mwilolanje ijuni ya mukonde, ikapanda, wala ikauna na wala yangali nngokwe jojowe. Nkali nneyo Ainabhenunji bha kunnungu bhanakwiiliya. Bhuli, mmanganyanji nngabha mmammbonenji kupunda ijuniyo?
27 Njalo nguwuphi kini ngokuphisekela ongengezelela ingalo ibenye ebudeni bakhe?
Gani munkumbi gwenunji kwa kola lipamba kwakwe anakombola kwijenjesheya kapela lyubha limo lya mobha gakwe galama?
28 Langezembatho liphisekelani? Qaphelisani imiduze yeganga, ukuthi ikhula njani; kayitshikatshiki, kayiphothi;
“Kwa nndi kola lipamba ga iwalo? Nnolanje malubha ga mukonde shigakutikonja? Gakakamula liengo wala gakapota.
29 kodwa ngithi kini: LoSolomoni ebucwazicwazini bakhe bonke wayengembathiswanga njengomunye wayo.
Ikabheje ngunakummalanjilanga, nkali a Mpalume a Shelemani bhayene na yowe ibhaakwete bhangawashwa kwa konja malinga lilubha limo.
30 Njalo uba uNkulunkulu esembathisa ngokunjalo utshani beganga, obukhona lamuhla, kuthi kusasa buphoswe eziko, kayikulembathisa kakhulu yini, lina abokholo oluncinyane?
Bhai ibhaga a Nnungu bhanakuliwasha liamba lya mmigunda, lelo lipali na malabhi lilileshelwa pa lituto lya moto, bhuli bhakapunda kunng'washanga mmanganyanji? Mmanganya nkwetenje ngulupai jishoko.
31 Ngakho lingaphisekeli lutho, lisithi: Sizakudlani? Kumbe: Sizanathani? Loba: Sizakwembathani?
“Bhai, nnakolanje lipamba, ‘Shitulye indi eu shitupapile indi eu shituwale indi!’
32 Ngoba zonke lezizinto izizwe ziyazidinga; ngoba uYihlo osezulwini uyazi ukuthi liyaziswela zonke lezizinto.
Pabha bhandu bhakakwaamanyanga a Nnungu bhanaabhushilanga yene yoweyo. Ainabhenunji bhali kunnungu bhamumanyi kuti nnakwiipinganga indu yoweyo.
33 Kodwa dingani kuqala umbuso kaNkulunkulu lokulunga kwakhe, njalo zonke lezizinto zizakwengezelelwa kini.
Ikabhe, nnoleyanje oti Upalume gwa a Nnungu na aki jabho na gene gowego, a Nnungu shibhannjenjesheyanje.
34 Ngakho lingaphisekeli ikusasa; ngoba ikusasa izaziphisekela yona; bulwanele usuku obalo ububi.
Bhai, nnaabhushilanje ya malabhi, pabha malabhi shigaiabhushile gayene. Shilaje sha lyubha limo shinatogolela kwa lyubha lyolyo.
