ULukha 21
1 UJesu wathi ekhangela wabona izinothi zifaka iminikelo yazo esitsheni somnikelo.
Having looked up now He saw the ones casting into the treasury the gifts of them rich.
2 Wabona njalo umfelokazi ongumyanga efaka okuzinhlamvana kwethusi okubili.
He saw then (and *k) a certain widow poor casting in lepta two.
3 Wathi, “Ngilitshela iqiniso ngithi umfelokazi lo ongumyanga unikele okudlula bonke abanye.
And He said; Truly I say to you that widow this poor more than all has cast in;
4 Bonke lababantu banikele izipho zabo ngokwenotho yabo, kodwa yena ebuyangeni bakhe ufake konke abelakho.”
(all *N+kO) for these out of that which was abounding to them they cast in the gifts (of God *KO) she however out of the poverty of her (all *N+kO) the livelihood that she had did cast.
5 Abanye abafundi bakhe babekhulukhuluma ngokubalazwa kwethempeli ngamatshe amahle langezipho ezazinikelwe kuNkulunkulu. Kodwa uJesu wathi,
And as some were speaking about the temple that with stones goodly and with consecrated gifts it has been adorned He said;
6 “Mayelana lalokhu elikubona lapha, sizafika isikhathi lapho okungeyikutshiywa ilitshe phezu kwelinye; wonke azaphoselwa phansi.”
[As to] these things which you are beholding, will come [the] days in which not will be left stone upon stone (here *O) which not will be thrown down.
7 Babuza bathi, “Mfundisi, izinto lezi zizakwenzakala nini? Njalo sizakuba yini isibonakaliso sokuthi sezizakwenzeka na?”
They asked then Him saying; Teacher, when then these things will be and what [will be] the sign when may soon be these things to take place?
8 Waphendula wathi, “Qaphelani lingakhohliswa. Ngoba abanengi bazakuza ngebizo lami besithi, ‘Nginguye,’ njalo bathi, ‘Isikhathi sesisondele.’ Lingabalandeli.
And He said; do take heed lest you may be led astray; many for will come in the name of Me saying (that: *ko) I myself am [He], and The time has drawn near. Not (therefore *K) may go after them.
9 Nxa lisizwa ngezimpi lezikhukhulambuso, lingethuki. Lezizinto kuzamele zenzeke kuqala, kodwa isiphetho kasizukufika ngalesosikhathi.”
When then you may hear of wars and commotions, not may be terrified; it behooves for these things to take place first but not immediately [is] the end.
10 Wasesithi kubo: “Isizwe sizavukela isizwe, lombuso uvukele umbuso.
Then He was saying to them; Will rise up nation against nation and kingdom against kingdom,
11 Kuzakuba lokuzamazama komhlaba okukhulu, indlala lezifo ezindaweni ezinengi, izehlakalo ezesabekayo lezibonakaliso ezinengi zivela emkhathini.
Earthquakes both great and in different places famines and pestilences there will be, fearful sights also and from heaven signs great will there be.
12 Kodwa kungakenzakali konke lokhu bazalibamba, balihlukuluze. Bazalinikela emasinagogweni baliphosele lasezintolongweni njalo lizamiswa phambi kwamakhosi lababusi ngenxa yebizo lami.
Before however these things (all *N+kO) they will lay upon you the hands of them and will persecute [you] delivering [you] to (the *no) synagogues and prisons, (leading [you] *N+kO) before kings and governors on account of the name of Me.
13 Lokhu kuzalenza libe ngofakazi kimi.
It will result (now *ko) to you for a testimony.
14 Kodwa bekani amaphaphu phansi, lingazihluphi ngokuthi lizazivikela lisithini.
(do implant *N+kO) therefore (in the hearts *N+kO) of you not to premeditate to present a defense;
15 Ngoba ngizalinika amazwi lokuhlakanipha ukuze angabikhona ezitheni zenu ozalehlula loba aliphikise.
I myself for will give you a mouth and wisdom which not will be able to resist (nor *N+kO) to reply to (all *N+kO) those opposing you.
16 Lizanikelwa ngabazali, ngabafowenu layizihlobo labangane njalo abanye benu bazalibulala.
You will be betrayed then even by parents and brothers and relatives and friends and they will put to death [some] from among you.
17 Bonke abantu bazalizonda ngenxa yami.
And you will be hated by all because of the name of Me.
18 Kodwa kakuyikubhubha lanwele olulodwa emakhanda enu.
But a hair of the head of you certainly not may perish.
19 Bekezelani, lizasindiswa.
By the patient endurance of you [all] (do you gain yourselves *NK+o) the souls of you [all].
20 Lingabona iJerusalema isihonqolozelwe yizimpi lizakwazi ukuthi incithakalo isisondele.
When then you may see being encircled by encampments Jerusalem, then do know that has drawn near the desolation of her.
21 Lapho-ke akuthi labo abaseJudiya babalekele ezintabeni, abasedolobheni kabaphume, kuthi labo abasemaphandleni bangangeni edolobheni.
Then those in Judea they should flee to the mountains, and those in midst of her they should depart out, and those in the countries not they should enter into her.
22 Ngoba lesi yisikhathi sokujeziswa ukugcwalisa konke okwalotshwayo.
for [the] days of avenging these are (to fill *N+kO) all things which written.
23 Yeka ubulukhuni obuzakuba khona ngalezonsuku kwabesifazane abakhulelweyo labangabadlezane! Kuzakuba khona ukuhlukuluzeka okukhulu elizweni lolaka phezu kwabantu.
But woe (now *k) to those in womb [pregnancy] having and to the [ones] nursing in those the days; there will be for distress great upon the land and wrath (in *k) to the people this,
24 Bazakuwa ngenkemba babuthwe babe yizibotshwa zezizwe zonke. IJerusalema izagidagidwa ngabeZizwe kuze kugcwaliseke izikhathi zabeZizwe.
And they will fall by [the] edge of [the] sword and will be led captive into the nations all and Jerusalem will be trodden down by [the] Gentiles until (that *no) may be fulfilled (and will be *O) [the] times of [the] Gentiles.
25 Kuzabakhona izibonakaliso elangeni, enyangeni lasezinkanyezini. Emhlabeni izizwe zizakuba phakathi kosizi lokudideka ngenxa yokuhuba lokukhaphaza kolwandle.
And (there will be *N+kO) signs in sun and moon and stars, and upon the earth distress of nations with perplexity ([the] sound *N+kO) of [the] sea and rolling surge
26 Abantu bazaphela amandla ngokwesaba, behlutshwa yilokho okuzayo emhlabeni, ngoba izisekelo zasezulwini zizazanyazanyiswa.
when are fainting men from fear and expectation of that which is coming on the earth; for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
27 Ngalesosikhathi bazayibona iNdodana yoMuntu isiza ngeyezi ilamandla lenkazimulo enkulu.
And then will they behold the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and glory great.
28 Nxa lezizinto seziqala ukwenzakala manini liqine, liphakamise amakhanda enu, ngoba ukuhlengwa kwenu sekusondela.”
Beginning then of these things to come to pass do look up and do lift up the heads of you because draws near the redemption of you.
29 Wabatshela umfanekiso lo wathi, “Khangelani esihlahleni somkhiwa kanye lezinye zonke izihlahla.
And He spoke a parable to them: Behold the fig tree and all the trees.
30 Nxa zihluma lizazibonela lani njalo lazi ukuthi ihlobo selisondele.
When they may sprout already, looking [on them] for yourselves you know that already near the summer is.
31 Kanjalo-ke, nxa lingabona lezizinto sezisenzakala, lazi ukuthi umbuso kaNkulunkulu ususondele.
So also you yourselves when you may see these things coming to pass, do know that near is the kingdom of God.
32 Ngilitshela iqiniso, lesisizukulwane kasiyikudlula zize zenzakale zonke lezizinto.
Amen I say to you that certainly not may have passed away generation this until when all [these things] may happen.
33 Izulu lomhlaba kuzedlula, kodwa amazwi ami kawayikwedlula lanini.
The heaven and the earth (will pass away, *NK+o) but the words of Mine certainly not (will pass away. *N+kO)
34 Nanzelelani funa inhliziyo zenu zithundubale ngokuzitika lokudakwa lokunqineka ngezinto zalimpilo, ngoba lolosuku luzalijuma njengomjibila.
do take heed now to yourselves otherwise otherwise (may be burdened *N+kO) of you the hearts with dissipation and drunkenness and cares of life — and may come upon you suddenly day that [very]
35 Ngoba luzafikela bonke labo abahlala kuwo wonke umhlaba.
as a snare; (It will enter *N+kO) for upon all those sitting upon [the] face of all the earth.
36 Hlalani lilindile, likhulekele ukuthi liphephe kukho konke osekuzakwenzeka masinyane, lokuthi libe lamandla okuma phambi kweNdodana yoMuntu.”
do watch (also *N+KO) at every season praying that (you may have strength *N+KO) to escape these things all that are soon to come to pass and to stand before the Son of Man.
37 Insuku zonke uJesu wayefundisa ethempelini kuthi kusihlwa aphume ayechitha ubusuku eqaqeni olwaluthiwa yiNtaba yama-Oliva,
He was now during the day in the temple teaching. and the evening going out He was lodging on the mount which is being called Olivet.
38 njalo abantu bonke babesiza ekuseni kakhulu ukuzamuzwa ethempelini.
And all the group of people was coming early to Him in the temple to hear Him.
