A ba kulika ku bona kuti kanti Jesu njeni, kono kana aba kuwola kubona kwi shila lye chikwata, bakeñi cha kuti abali mufwihi.
4 Wasegijimela phambili, wakhwela phezu komkhiwa wesikhamore ukuze ambone njengoba uJesu wayesiza ngaleyondlela.
Mi cha tilila ku busu bwa bantu ni kukantanta kwi isamu lya sikomore kuti amubone, kakuti Jesu kwa bakuhitila.
5 Kwathi uJesu esefikile kuleyondawo, wakhangela phezulu wathi kuye, “Zakhewu, yehla masinyane. Ngizakwethekelela endlini yakho lamuhla.”
Mi Jesu ha sika hecho chibaka, cha lola kwiwulu mi cha muwambila kuti, “Zakia, suke hansi kakuhwela, mukuti sunu ni kekala kwi nzubo ya ko.”
6 Wasesehla uZakhewu masinyane wamamukela ngokuthokoza.

7 Bonke abantu bakubona lokhu bangunguna besithi, “Useyekuba yisethekeli sesoni.”
Mi bantu haba bona vulyo, chi ba bilela, chiba wamba, “Cha yenda kukupotela mukwame wina chibi.”

9 UJesu wasesithi kuye, “Lamuhla insindiso isifikile kulindlu ngoba indoda le layo iyindodana ka-Abhrahama.
Jesu cha wamba kwali, “Sunu i puluso yeza mwi nzubo yako, kakuti nawe u mwana wa Abrahama.
10 Ngoba iNdodana yoMuntu yalanda ukudinga lokusindisa lokho okwakulahlekile.”
Mukuti Mwana a Muntu a ba kezi ku gana ni ku haza bantu ba zobete.”
11 Bathi besalalele lokhu, wabatshela omunye umzekeliso, ngoba wayesesondele eJerusalema, abantu sebecabanga ukuthi umbuso kaNkulunkulu wawusuzahle uvele masinyane.
Mi haba zuwa izo zintu, cha zwila habusu ku wamba mi na wamba che nguli, kakuti cha bena hafwihi ni Jerusalema, mi baba kuhupula kuti mubuso we Ireeza chiu bena hafwihi ni kwiza.
12 Wathi, “Indoda ethile yasesikhosini ngokuzalwa yaya elizweni elikhatshana isiyagcotshwa ukuba yinkosi andubana iphenduke.
Cha wamba, “Zumwi kuluzubo lwa busimwine cha yenda kule mwi nkanda kukali wanina mubuso ni ku kabola.”
13 Yasibiza izinceku zayo ezilitshumi yazinika imali engamamina alitshumi. Yathi, ‘Isebenziseni imali le ngize ngiphenduke.’
Cha sumpa i kumi lya bahikana ba kwe, cha baha ikumi lye pondo lya masheleni, mi cha wamba ku bali kuti, “Mu pange mu ku wuza ku lindila chi naka bola.
14 Kodwa labobantu ayezababusa babemzonda lumuntu, bathumela izithunywa ukuthi zimlandele ziyekuthi, ‘Kasimfuni lumuntu ukuthi abe yinkosi yethu.’
“Kono ba mushobo wakwe chi ba mutoya mi chi ba tumina chikwata chabazimanini mwisule lyakwe, mi ni ba wamba kuti, “Kese tu siye uzu muntu kuti atu yendise.”
15 Lanxa kunjalo wagcotshwa waba yinkosi, waphenduka ekhaya. Wasebiza izinceku lezo ayezinike imali ukuze ezwe ukuthi zazithole nzuzo bani ngayo.
Chi zapangahala haka bola hape, ha mana kuka wana mubuso, cha laela bahikana abo baba hewa masheleni kuti basumpwe kwali, kuti eze ezibe kuti kanti nji bukai ibaba wani yahewulu ha baba ku wuza.
16 Owokuqala weza wathi, ‘Nkosi, imali yakho isizele amanye amadola alitshumi.’
We ntanzi cheza kwali, na wamba kuti, “Ireeza, ha masheleni ako ni ba pangi ikumwi lya masheleni hewulu,
17 Inkosi yayo yathi, ‘Wenze kuhle, nceku yami elungileyo! Ngenxa yokuthi uthembekile entweni encinyane, usuzabusa amadolobho alitshumi.’
Yo zwa kuluzubo lwa busimwine cha wamba kwali kuti, “Wa tenda hande, u mu hikana yo shiyeme. Mukuti uba sepahali kuzintu zi nini, ko be imu yendisi hewulu lyekumi lya mileneni.”

19 Inkosi yayo yaphendula yathi, ‘Busa phezu kwamadolobho amahlanu.’
“Yo zwa haluzubo lwa busimwine cha wamba kwali kuti, ko yendise i yanza lye mileneñi.”
20 Kwasekusiza enye inceku yathi, ‘Nkosi, nansi imali yakho; bengiyigoqele ngelembu.
Hape zumwi cheza, na wamba kuti, “Ireeza, masheleni ako aa, ni baabikite mwi njiila,
21 Bengikwesaba wena ngoba uyindoda elukhuni. Ucupha lapho ongathelanga khona njalo ubuye uvune lapho ongahlanyelanga khona.’
kakuti ni ba ku tiite, mukuti u muntu yo bambamite. U hinda mosana uba biki, mi u sinza mosana u ba byali.”
22 Inkosi yayo yaphendula yathi, ‘Ngizakwahlulela ngamazwi akho wena nceku exhwalileyo! Angithi ubukwazi ukuthi ngingumuntu olukhuni, ocupha lapho angathelanga khona lovuna lapho angahlanyelanga khona?

23 Kungani pho ungabekanga imali yami ebhanga ukuze kuthi ekubuyeni kwami ngiyithathe isilenzuzo na?’
Mi chinzi ho sana u ba biki masheleni angu mwi banka, kuti ime chi na kabola, nize ni ahinde ni chimwi hewulu?”
24 Yasisithi kwababemi khonapho, ‘Mthatheleni lelo alalo liliphe lowo olalitshumi.’

25 Basebesithi, ‘Nkosi, angithi uvele uselalitshumi?’
Chi ba wamba kwali kuti, Ireeza, wina kale i kumi lya masheleni.
26 Yaphendula yathi, ‘Ngithi kini, lowo olakho uzaphiwa okunye okunengi kodwa lowo ongelalutho, lalokho alakho uzakwemukwa.
Ni wamba kwenu, muntu yese wina u swanezi kuhewa zingi, kono kwa kwe ya seena, niheba chi na cha kwete ka chi hindwe kwali.
27 Kodwa izitha zami lezo ebezingafuni ukuthi ngizibuse, ziletheni lapha lizibulalele phambi kwami.’”
Kono zila zangu, abo ba sa ni suni kuti ni ni bayendise, mu ba lete kunu mi mwize mubehaye habusu bwangu.”
28 UJesu esezitshilo zonke lezizinto wahamba wabandulela eqonda eJerusalema.
Ha wamba izo zintu, cha zwila habusu, ku yenda kwa Jerusalema.
29 Wathi esebanga eBhethifage kanye leBhethani entabeni eyayithiwa yiNtaba yama-Oliva wathuma abafundi bakhe ababili wathi kubo:
Hati cho chunine ha fwihi ni Bertifage ni Betania, helundu li sumpwa Oliveta, cha tuma balutwana bobele,
30 “Yanini emzini ophambi kwenu, lizakuthi lingena kuwo libone inkonyane kababhemi ibotshelwe khonapho, engakaze igadwe muntu. ‘Ikhululeni liyilethe lapha.
na wamba kuti, “Mu yende ha munzi uwo wi chilila, mi chi mwe njila bulyo, ka muwane i mbongolo i seni kwi chilwa. Mu yisumunune mi muyi lete kunu kwangu.
31 Nxa kungaba lozalibuza ukuthi, Liyikhululelani na?’ kumele lithi, ‘INkosi iyayifuna.’”
Heba kwina yete ami buze, “Chinzi ha mu i sumununa? mu wambe kuti, Ireeza njo i suna.”
32 Labo ababethunyiwe bahamba njalo bathola kunjengoba ebetshilo.
A bo baba tumwitwe baba yendi ni kuka wana i mbongolo bo bulyo mwa ba wambili Jesu.
33 Besayikhulula inkonyane kababhemi, abanini bayo bababuza bathi, “Liyikhululelani na?”
Ha baba ku kwete ku sumununa i mbongolo, bene bayo chiba wamba ku bali kuti, “Chinzi ha mu sumununa i mbongolo?”
34 Baphendula bathi, “INkosi iyayifuna.”
Chi ba wamba kuti, “Ireeza njo i suni.”
35 Bayiletha kuJesu, baphosela amajazi abo phezu kwenkonyane, bagadisa uJesu phezu kwayo.
Chi ba kayi leta kwa Jesu, mi chi ba zala zizwato he mbongolo mi chi be tantika ho Jesu.
36 Wathi eseqhubeka, abantu bendlala amajazi abo endleleni.
Ha ba ba ku yenda, chi ba zala chizwato za bo mu nzila.
37 Esefikile eduze kwalapho indlela eyehla khona isuka eNtabeni yama-Oliva abafundi lexuku lonke lasuka ngokuthokoza ladumisa uNkulunkulu ngamazwi amakhulu ngenxa yemimangaliso yonke ababeyibonile, bathi:
Ha chunina ha chibaka cina zi samu ze olive, bungi bwa balutwana ci ba tanga ku luluweza ni ku temba Ireeza ka muhuwo mukando ka mitendo mi lontu yi baba boni,
38 “Ibusisiwe inkosi ebuya ngebizo likaThixo!” “Ukuthula ezulwini lodumo kweliphezulu!”
ni ba wamba kuti, “Kutompwe simwine yo kezite mwi zina lye Ireeza! Kusanga ku be kwi wulu mi ikanya i be hewulu!”
39 Abanye abaFarisi exukwini bathi kuJesu, “Mfundisi, khuza abafundi bakho!”
Bamwi ku Bafalisi ba bena mu chikwata, chi ba wamba kwali kuti, “Muluti, kalimele balutwana bako.”
40 Waphendula wathi, “Ngiyalitshela ngithi nxa bethula amatshe azamemeza.”
Jesu che taba cha wamba kuti, Ni mi wambila, heba aba ni ba ntontola, ma ñomwe ka a huwe.”
41 Wathi esebanga eJerusalema ekhangele idolobho, walikhalela
Cwale Jesu ha chunina ku muleneni, ca lila,
42 wathi, “Nxa wena, wena ngokwakho, ubukwazi namhla lokho obekungakulethela ukuthula kodwa okwamanje kufihliwe emehlweni akho.
na wamba kuti, Kambe u be zibite ze linu i zuba lya ko li ka kuletele ikozo, kono hanu zi patitwe ha menso ako.
43 Zizafika insuku kuwe lapho izitha zakho zizakwakha umthangala zikuhonqolozele njalo zikuphahle inxa zonke.
Mi mazuba ka akeze hewulu lyako, mi zila zako ka zi ku zimbuluse ni lukwakwa, mi zikuzimbuluke, ni kuku kakatiza imbali zose.
44 Zizakusakazela phansi emhlabathini, wena kanye labantwana abaphakathi kwemiduli yakho. Kaziyikutshiya lalinye ilitshe phezu kwelinye ngoba kawusinanzelelanga isikhathi sokuza kukaNkulunkulu kuwe.”
Ka ba ku wisikize hasi iwe ni bana bako. Keteni ba siye ibwe hewulu lya limwi, mukuti kena u be zibi Ireeza ha ba kusuni ku kutusa.
45 Wasengena ethempelini wadudula ababethengisa khona
Jesu che njila mwi keleke ni ku tandila hanze bonse baba ku wuza,
46 esithi kubo, “Kubhaliwe ukuthi, ‘Indlu yami iyindlu yokukhuleka,’kodwa lina seliyenze ubhalu lwabaphangi.”
na wamba ku bali kuti, “Ku ba ñoletwe, “I nzubo yangu ye ntapelo, kono inwe chi mwa yi tenda inzubo ya basa.”
47 Insuku zonke wayefundisa ethempelini. Kodwa abaphristi abakhulu labafundisi bomthetho kanye labakhokheli ababephakathi kwabantu babezama ukumbulala.
Mi Jesu aba ku kutaza izuba ni zuba mwi keleke, ba kulwana ba Mapurisita, ni bañola mane ni bakulwana be cisi, ba ba ku saka ku mwi haya.
48 Kodwa kabayizuzanga indlela yokukwenza lokho ngoba abantu bonke babewakholwa amazwi akhe.
Kono kana ba ba wani inzila ya ku tenda bulyo, mukuti chisi chonse ci bakumalele ku muzuwa.
