Luke 20
1 And it came to pass on one of the days (of those *k) when is teaching He the people in the temple and evangelising came up the (chief priests *NK+o) and the scribes with the elders
Kwasekusithi ngolunye lwalezonsuku, efundisa abantu ethempelini etshumayela ivangeli, bamfikela abapristi abakhulu lababhali kanye labadala,
2 and spoke saying to Him: do tell us by what authority these things You do or who is the [one] having given to You authority this?
basebekhuluma laye, besithi: Sitshele, ukuthi izinto lezi uzenza ngaliphi igunya, kumbe ngubani okunike leligunya?
3 Answering now He said to them; Will ask you I myself also I myself also (one *k) thing, and do tell Me:
Wasephendula wathi kubo: Lami ngizalibuza umbuzo ube munye, njalo lingitshele:
4 The baptism of John from heaven was it or from men?
Ubhabhathizo lukaJohane lwavela ezulwini, kumbe ebantwini?
5 And they reasoned among themselves saying that If we shall say: From heaven, He will say; Because of why (therefore *K) not did you believe in him?
Basebezindlisana, besithi: Uba sisithi: Ezulwini; uzakuthi: Kungani-ke lingamkholwanga?
6 If however we shall say; From men, the people (all *N+kO) will stone us; persuaded for they are John a prophet to be.
Kodwa uba sisithi: Ebantwini; abantu bonke bazasikhanda ngamatshe; ngoba baleqiniso lokuthi uJohane wayengumprofethi.
7 And they answered not to know from where.
Basebephendula ngokuthi kabazi lapho olwavela khona.
8 And Jesus said to them; Neither I myself tell you by what authority these things I am doing.
UJesu wasesithi kubo: Lami kangilitsheli ukuthi ngenza lezizinto ngaliphi igunya.
9 He began then to the people to speak parable this: A man (certain *NK) planted a vineyard and rented it to farmers and went abroad a time long.
Waseqala ukutshela abantu lumfanekiso, esithi: Umuntu othile wahlanyela isivini, wasiqhatshisa kubalimi, waya kwelinye ilizwe okwesikhathi eside;
10 And (in *k) [in the] season he sent to the farmers a servant that from the fruit of the vineyard (they will give *N+kO) to him; But the farmers sent away him having beaten [him] empty-handed.
kwathi ngesikhathi esifaneleyo wathuma inceku kubalimi, ukuze bayinike okwesithelo sesivini; kodwa abalimi bayitshaya bayithumeza ize.
11 And he proceeded another to send a servant; but him him having beaten and having dishonored they sent away empty-handed.
Wasethuma njalo enye inceku; layo bayitshaya bayiyangisa, bayithumeza ize.
12 And he proceeded a third to send; They then also him having wounded they cast out.
Wasephinda ethuma leyesithathu; layo leyo bayilimaza bayiphosela ngaphandle.
13 Said then the master of the vineyard; What shall I do? I will send the son of mine the beloved; perhaps him (having seen *K) they will respect.
Umninisivini wasesithi: Ngizakwenza njani? Ngizathuma indodana yami ethandekayo; mhlawumbe bebona yona bazayihlonipha.
14 Having seen now him the farmers were reasoning among (one another *N+kO) saying; This is the heir; (come *K) let us kill him so that ours may become the inheritance.
Kodwa abalimi beyibona bazindlisana, besithi: Le yindlalifa; wozani, siyibulale, ukuze ilifa libe ngelethu.
15 And having cast forth him outside the vineyard they killed [him]. What therefore will do to them the master of the vineyard?
Bayiphosela ngaphandle kwesivini, bayibulala. Kambe uzakwenzani kubo umninisivini?
16 He will come and he will destroy farmers these and will give the vineyard to others. Having heard [it] then they said; Never would it be!
Uzakuza, ababhubhise labobalimi, anikele isivini kwabanye. Bekuzwa basebesithi: Akungabinjalo!
17 But having looked at them He said; What then is that written this: [The] stone which rejected those building, this has become into [the] head of [the] corner’?
Kodwa wabakhangela wathi: Pho kuyini lokhu okulotshiweyo, okuthi: Ilitshe abakhi abalalayo, yilo eseliyinhloko yengonsi?
18 Everyone falling on that [very] stone will be broken; on whomever but maybe it may fall, it will grind into powder him.
Wonke owela phezu kwalelolitshe, uzaphahlazwa; kodwa loba ngubani eliwela phezu kwakhe, lizamchoboza.
19 And sought the scribes and the chief priests to lay on Him hands in that hour and they feared the people; they perceived for that against them He was speaking parable this.
Abapristi abakhulu lababhali basebedinga ukumbamba ngezandla ngalelohola, kodwa besaba abantu; ngoba baqedisisa ukuthi wayekhuluma lumfanekiso emelane labo.
20 And having watched [Him] they sent spies feigning themselves righteous to be, that they may catch Him in talk, (in order *N+kO) to deliver Him to the rule and to the authority of the governor.
Basebemqaphela, bethuma inhloli, ezazitshaya ezilungileyo, ukuze bambambe ekukhulumeni, ukuze bamnikele egunyeni lemandleni ombusi.
21 And they questioned Him saying; Teacher, we know that rightly You speak and You teach and not You receive [any] person but on the basis of truth the way of God teach.
Bambuza-ke, besithi: Mfundisi, siyazi ukuthi wena ukhuluma ufundise ngokuqondileyo, kawemukeli buso, kodwa ufundisa indlela kaNkulunkulu ngeqiniso.
22 Is it lawful (for us *N+kO) to Caesar tribute to give or not?
Sivunyelwe yini ukuthela kuKesari, kumbe hatshi?
23 having perceived however of them the craftiness He said to them (why *KO) (me do you test; *K)
Kodwa wabubona ubuqili babo, wathi kubo: Lingilingelani?
24 (do show *N+kO) Me a denarius; Of whom has it [the] image and inscription? (Those *N+KO) And they said; Caesar’s.
Ngitshengisani udenariyo; ulomfanekiso lombhalo kabani? Basebephendula besithi: OkaKesari.
25 And He said (to *no) (them; *N+kO) Therefore do give back the [things] of Caesar to Caesar and the [things] of God to God.
Wasesithi kubo: Ngakho nikani uKesari okukaKesari, loNkulunkulu okukaNkulunkulu.
26 And not they were able to catch Him in (His *NK+o) declaration before the people, and having marveled at the answer of Him they became silent.
Basebesehluleka ukumbamba ngelizwi lakhe phambi kwabantu; basebemangaliswa yimpendulo yakhe, bathula.
27 Having approached then some of the Sadducees, the ones (denying *NK+o) a resurrection not being, they questioned Him
Kwasekusiza kuye abathile babaSadusi, abaphika besithi kakukho ukuvuka kwabafileyo, bambuza,
28 saying; Teacher, Moses wrote to us: if anyone’s brother shall die having a wife and he childless (shall be, *N+KO) that shall take the brother of him the wife and shall raise up seed to the brother of him.
besithi: Mfundisi, uMozisi wasibhalela ukuthi: Uba kusifa umfowabo womuntu elomkakhe, lo abesesifa engelamntwana, umfowabo kamthathe umfazi, abesemvusela inzalo umfowabo.
29 Seven therefore brothers there were; and the first having taken a wife died childless,
Ngakho kwakulezelamani eziyisikhombisa; owokuqala wasethatha umfazi, wafa engelamntwana;
30 and (took *K) the second (wife and this died childless *K)
lowesibili wamthatha umfazi, laye lo wafa engelamntwana;
31 and the third took her (likewise *o) likewise then also the seven not did leave children and died.
lowesithathu wamthatha. Kwaba njalo-ke lakwabayisikhombisa; abatshiyanga abantwana, bafa.
32 Finally (now of all *K) also the woman died.
Ekucineni kwabo bonke kwafa lomfazi.
33 (The woman *no) therefore in the resurrection, of which of them does she become wife? For the seven had her as wife.
Ngakho ekuvukeni kwabafileyo, uzafika abe ngumkabani kubo? Ngoba abayisikhombisa babelaye engumkabo.
34 And (answering *k) said to them Jesus; The sons of the age this marry and (are given in marriage, *N+kO) (aiōn g165)
UJesu wasephendula wathi kubo: Abantwana balumhlaba bayathatha, bendiswe; (aiōn g165)
35 those however having been considered worthy of the age that [one] to obtain and of the resurrection from [the] dead neither marry nor (are given in marriage; *N+k+o) (aiōn g165)
kodwa labo okuzathiwa bafanele ukuzuza lowomhlaba lokuvuka kwabafileyo kabathathani, kabendiswa; (aiōn g165)
36 (neither *N+kO) for to die any more are they able, like [the] angels for they are, and sons they are of God of the resurrection sons being.
ngoba bengelakuphinda bafe; ngoba banjengezingilosi, njalo bangabantwana bakaNkulunkulu, bengabantwana bokuvuka.
37 for however are raised the dead, even Moses showed at the bush when he names [the] Lord the God of Abraham and (the *k) God of Isaac and (the *k) God of Jacob.’
Kodwa ukuthi abafileyo bayavuswa, loMozisi wakutshengisa esihlahleni, lapho eyibiza iNkosi ngokuthi nguNkulunkulu kaAbrahama loNkulunkulu kaIsaka loNkulunkulu kaJakobe.
38 God now not He is of [the] dead but of [the] living; all for to Him live.
Futhi kayisuye uNkulunkulu wabafileyo, kodwa owabaphilayo; ngoba bonke baphilela yena.
39 Answering now some of the scribes said; Teacher, well you have spoken.
Abathile bababhali basebephendula bathi: Mfundisi, ukhulume kuhle.
40 no longer no longer (then *N+kO) were they daring to ask Him no [thing].
Njalo kababanga lesibindi sokuphinda bambuze ulutho.
41 He said then to them; How do they declare the Christ to be David's Son
Wasesithi kubo: Batsho njani ukuthi uKristu uyiNdodana kaDavida?
42 (and *ko) Himself (for *no) David says in [the] book of Psalms: Said (the *ko) Lord to the Lord of me; do sit at [the] right hand of Me
Ngoba uDavida uqobo lwakhe uthi encwadini yeziHlabelelo: INkosi yathi eNkosini yami: Hlala ngakwesokunene sami,
43 until when I may place the enemies of You [as] a footstool of the feet of You.
ngize ngenze izitha zakho zibe yisenabelo senyawo zakho.
44 David therefore Lord Him calls, and how of him son is He?
Ngakho uDavida umbiza ngokuthi yiNkosi, pho uyindodana yakhe njani?
45 When are listening now all the people He said to the disciples of Him;
Kwathi besalalele abantu bonke, wathi kubafundi bakhe:
46 do beware of the scribes who are desiring to walk in long robes and loving greetings in the marketplaces and first seats in the synagogues and first places in the banquets,
Xwayani ababhali abathanda ukuhamba bembethe izembatho ezinde, njalo bethanda ukubingelelwa emidangeni, lezihlalo eziqakathekileyo emasinagogeni, lezihlalo zabahloniphekayo ezilayelweni;
47 who devour the houses of widows and as a pretext at great length pray; These will receive more excessive condemnation.
abadla izindlu zabafelokazi, bekhuleka isikhathi eside ngokuzenzisa. Laba bazakwemukela ukulahlwa okukhulu.
