UMathewu 16
1 AbaFarisi labaSadusi sebezile, bemlinga bamcela ukuthi abatshengise isibonakaliso esivela ezulwini.
tadānīṁ phirūśinaḥ sidūkinaścāgatya taṁ parīkṣituṁ nabhamīyaṁ kiñcana lakṣma darśayituṁ tasmai nivedayāmāsuḥ|
2 Kodwa waphendula wathi kubo: Kusihlwa lithi: Umkhathi muhle; ngoba isibhakabhaka sibomvu;
tataḥ sa uktavān, sandhyāyāṁ nabhaso raktatvād yūyaṁ vadatha, śvo nirmmalaṁ dinaṁ bhaviṣyati;
3 lekuseni lithi: Umkhathi mubi lamuhla; ngoba isibhakabhaka sibomvu sinyukubele. Bazenzisi, liyakwazi ukwehlukanisa umumo wesibhakabhaka; kodwa izibonakaliso zezikhathi lingeke yini?
prātaḥkāle ca nabhaso raktatvāt malinatvāñca vadatha, jhañbhśadya bhaviṣyati| he kapaṭino yadi yūyam antarīkṣasya lakṣma boddhuṁ śaknutha, tarhi kālasyaitasya lakṣma kathaṁ boddhuṁ na śaknutha?
4 Isizukulwana esibi lesifebayo sidinga isibonakaliso; kodwa kasiyikunikwa isibonakaliso, ngaphandle kwesibonakaliso sikaJona umprofethi. Wasebatshiya, wahamba.
etatkālasya duṣṭo vyabhicārī ca vaṁśo lakṣma gaveṣayati, kintu yūnaso bhaviṣyadvādino lakṣma vinānyat kimapi lakṣma tān na darśayiyyate| tadānīṁ sa tān vihāya pratasthe|
5 Sebefikile ngaphetsheya abafundi bakhe babekhohliwe ukuthatha izinkwa.
anantaramanyapāragamanakāle tasya śiṣyāḥ pūpamānetuṁ vismṛtavantaḥ|
6 UJesu wasesithi kubo: Nanzelelani liqaphele imvubelo yabaFarisi labaSadusi.
yīśustānavādīt, yūyaṁ phirūśināṁ sidūkināñca kiṇvaṁ prati sāvadhānāḥ satarkāśca bhavata|
7 Basebekhulumisana besithi: Ngoba singathathanga izinkwa.
tena te parasparaṁ vivicya kathayitumārebhire, vayaṁ pūpānānetuṁ vismṛtavanta etatkāraṇād iti kathayati|
8 UJesu esekwazi wathi kubo: Lina abokholo oluncinyane, kungani likhulumisana ngokuthi alithathanga izinkwa?
kintu yīśustadvijñāya tānavocat, he stokaviśvāsino yūyaṁ pūpānānayanamadhi kutaḥ parasparametad viviṁkya?
9 Kalikaqedisisi yini, futhi kalikhumbuli izinkwa ezinhlanu zenkulungwane ezinhlanu, lokuthi labutha izitsha ezingaki?
yuṣmābhiḥ kimadyāpi na jñāyate? pañcabhiḥ pūpaiḥ pañcasahasrapuruṣeṣu bhojiteṣu bhakṣyocchiṣṭapūrṇān kati ḍalakān samagṛhlītaṁ;
10 Futhi lezinkwa eziyisikhombisa zenkulungwane ezine, lokuthi labutha izitsha ezingaki?
tathā saptabhiḥ pūpaiścatuḥsahasrapuruṣeṣu bhejiteṣu kati ḍalakān samagṛhlīta, tat kiṁ yuṣmābhirna smaryyate?
11 Kaliqedisisi njani, ukuthi bekungemayelana lesinkwa ebengikukhuluma kini ukuthi liqaphele imvubelo yabaFarisi labaSadusi?
tasmāt phirūśināṁ sidūkināñca kiṇvaṁ prati sāvadhānāstiṣṭhata, kathāmimām ahaṁ pūpānadhi nākathayaṁ, etad yūyaṁ kuto na budhyadhve?
12 Basebeqedisisa ukuthi katshongo ukuthi baqaphele imvubelo yezinkwa, kodwa imfundiso yabaFarisi labaSadusi.
tadānīṁ pūpakiṇvaṁ prati sāvadhānāstiṣṭhateti noktvā phirūśināṁ sidūkināñca upadeśaṁ prati sāvadhānāstiṣṭhateti kathitavān, iti tairabodhi|
13 Kwathi uJesu esefikile kungxenye zeKesariya yeFiliphu wababuza abafundi bakhe, esithi: Abantu bathi, mina, iNdodana yomuntu, ngingubani?
aparañca yīśuḥ kaisariyā-philipipradeśamāgatya śiṣyān apṛcchat, yo'haṁ manujasutaḥ so'haṁ kaḥ? lokairahaṁ kimucye?
14 Basebesithi: Abanye bathi: NguJohane uMbhabhathizi; labanye bathi: NguElija; labanye bathi: NguJeremiya, kumbe ngomunye wabaprofethi.
tadānīṁ te kathitavantaḥ, kecid vadanti tvaṁ majjayitā yohan, kecidvadanti, tvam eliyaḥ, kecicca vadanti, tvaṁ yirimiyo vā kaścid bhaviṣyadvādīti|
15 Wathi kubo: Lina-ke lithi ngingubani?
paścāt sa tān papraccha, yūyaṁ māṁ kaṁ vadatha? tataḥ śimon pitara uvāca,
16 USimoni Petro wasephendula wathi: Wena unguKristu, iNdodana kaNkulunkulu ophilayo.
tvamamareśvarasyābhiṣiktaputraḥ|
17 UJesu wasephendula wathi kuye: Ubusisiwe, Simoni ndodana kaJona, ngoba inyama legazi kakukwembulelanga lokhu, kodwa uBaba osemazulwini.
tato yīśuḥ kathitavān, he yūnasaḥ putra śimon tvaṁ dhanyaḥ; yataḥ kopi anujastvayyetajjñānaṁ nodapādayat, kintu mama svargasyaḥ pitodapādayat|
18 Lami-ke ngiyakutshela, ukuthi wena unguPetro; laphezu kwalelidwala ngizalakha ibandla lami, lamasango esihogo kawayikulehlula. (Hadēs g86)
ato'haṁ tvāṁ vadāmi, tvaṁ pitaraḥ (prastaraḥ) ahañca tasya prastarasyopari svamaṇḍalīṁ nirmmāsyāmi, tena nirayo balāt tāṁ parājetuṁ na śakṣyati| (Hadēs g86)
19 Futhi ngizakunika izihluthulelo zombuso wamazulu; njalo loba yini ozayibopha emhlabeni, izakuba ibotshiwe emazulwini; njalo loba yini ozayithukulula emhlabeni, izakuba ithukululwe emazulwini.
ahaṁ tubhyaṁ svargīyarājyasya kuñjikāṁ dāsyāmi, tena yat kiñcana tvaṁ pṛthivyāṁ bhaṁtsyasi tatsvarge bhaṁtsyate, yacca kiñcana mahyāṁ mokṣyasi tat svarge mokṣyate|
20 Wasebalayisisa abafundi ukuthi bangatsheli muntu ukuthi yena unguJesu onguKristu.
paścāt sa śiṣyānādiśat, ahamabhiṣikto yīśuriti kathāṁ kasmaicidapi yūyaṁ mā kathayata|
21 Kusukela kulesosikhathi uJesu waqala ukubatshengisa abafundi bakhe ukuthi umele ukuya eJerusalema, njalo ahlupheke okunengi ngabadala labapristi abakhulu lababhali, abulawe, avuswe ngosuku lwesithathu.
anyañca yirūśālamnagaraṁ gatvā prācīnalokebhyaḥ pradhānayājakebhya upādhyāyebhyaśca bahuduḥkhabhogastai rhatatvaṁ tṛtīyadine punarutthānañca mamāvaśyakam etāḥ kathā yīśustatkālamārabhya śiṣyān jñāpayitum ārabdhavān|
22 UPetro wasesiya laye eceleni waqala ukumkhuza esithi: Kakungabi kuwe, Nkosi; lokhu kakusoze kwenziwa kuwe.
tadānīṁ pitarastasya karaṁ ghṛtvā tarjayitvā kathayitumārabdhavān, he prabho, tat tvatto dūraṁ yātu, tvāṁ prati kadāpi na ghaṭiṣyate|
23 Kodwa yena watshibilika wathi kuPetro: Suka ngemva kwami, Sathane, uyisikhubekiso kimi; ngoba kawucabangi izinto zikaNkulunkulu, kodwa ezabantu.
kintu sa vadanaṁ parāvartya pitaraṁ jagāda, he vighnakārin, matsammukhād dūrībhava, tvaṁ māṁ bādhase, īśvarīyakāryyāt mānuṣīyakāryyaṁ tubhyaṁ rocate|
24 UJesu wasesithi kubafundi bakhe: Uba umuntu ethanda ukuza ngemva kwami, kazidele, athathe isiphambano sakhe, angilandele.
anantaraṁ yīśuḥ svīyaśiṣyān uktavān yaḥ kaścit mama paścādgāmī bhavitum icchati, sa svaṁ dāmyatu, tathā svakruśaṁ gṛhlan matpaścādāyātu|
25 Ngoba loba ngubani othanda ukusindisa impilo yakhe izamlahlekela; kodwa loba ngubani olahlekelwa yimpilo yakhe ngenxa yami uzayithola;
yato yaḥ prāṇān rakṣitumicchati, sa tān hārayiṣyati, kintu yo madarthaṁ nijaprāṇān hārayati, sa tān prāpsyati|
26 ngoba kuzamsizani umuntu nxa ezuza umhlaba wonke, kodwa alahlekelwe ngumphefumulo wakhe? Kumbe umuntu uzanikani kube lihlawulo lomphefumulo wakhe?
mānuṣo yadi sarvvaṁ jagat labhate nijapraṇān hārayati, tarhi tasya ko lābhaḥ? manujo nijaprāṇānāṁ vinimayena vā kiṁ dātuṁ śaknoti?
27 Ngoba iNdodana yomuntu izakuza ngenkazimulo kaYise kanye lengilosi zayo, khona izavuza ngulowo lalowo njengokwenza kwakhe.
manujasutaḥ svadūtaiḥ sākaṁ pituḥ prabhāveṇāgamiṣyati; tadā pratimanujaṁ svasvakarmmānusārāt phalaṁ dāsyati|
28 Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Bakhona abanye kwabemiyo lapha, abangasoze bezwe ukufa, baze bayibone iNdodana yomuntu isiza embusweni wayo.
ahaṁ yuṣmān tathyaṁ vacmi, sarājyaṁ manujasutam āgataṁ na paśyanto mṛtyuṁ na svādiṣyanti, etādṛśāḥ katipayajanā atrāpi daṇḍāyamānāḥ santi|
