Luke 14
1 Mme ka Sabata nngwe ya re a le mo lwapeng lwa leloko lengwe la Lekgotla la Sejuta, Bafarasai ba bo ba mo lebeletse thata jaaka bophakalane go bona gore a o tlaa fodisa monna yo o neng a le foo a lwala go tlala metsi mo ditokololong.
Kwasekusithi ekungeneni kwakhe ngesabatha endlini yomunye wabakhulu kubaFarisi ukuthi adle isinkwa, bona basebemqaphela.
Njalo khangela, kwakukhona umuntu othile phambi kwakhe owayelombizankulu.
3 Mme Jesu a raya Bafarasai le bomaitseanape ba ba neng ba le foo a re, “A go kafa molaong go fodisa motho ka letsatsi la Sabata, kgotsa nnyaa?”
UJesu wasephendula wakhuluma lezazumthetho labaFarisi, wathi: Kuvunyelwe yini ukusilisa ngesabatha?
4 Mme ya re ba gana go mo araba, Jesu a tshwara monna yo o lwalang ka letsogo a mo fodisa a mo rebola go tsamaya.
Kodwa bathula. Wasembamba wamsilisa wamyekela ukuthi ahambe.
5 Hong a retologela kwa go bone: A botsa a re, “Ke ofe wa lona yo o sa direng ka letsatsi la Sabata? Fa kgomo ya gago e wela mo sedibeng, a ga o ka ke wa tswelela pele go e ntsha ka bonako?”
Wasebaphendula esithi: Nguwuphi kini ongathi elobabhemi kumbe inkabi yakhe ewele emgodini, futhi angahle ayikhuphe ngosuku lwesabatha?
6 Gape ba tlhoka karabo.
Abasazange babuyisele impendulo kuye ngalezizinto.
7 Mme erile fa a lemoga fa batho botlhe ba ba tsileng dijong ba leka go nna gaufi le lomati lwa bojelo, a ba gakolola a re:
Wasekhuluma umfanekiso kubo abanxusiweyo, ebona ukuthi bakhetha njani izihlalo zabahloniphekayo, wathi kubo:
8 “Fa lo laleditswe modiro wa nyalo, lo se ka lwa aga lo lwela go nna kwa mannong a a botoka. Gonne fa mongwe yo o tlotlegang thata go lo gaisa a goroga,
Nxa unxusiwe ngumuntu emtshadweni, ungahlali esihlalweni sabahloniphekayo; hlezi kukhona omkhulu kulawe onxusiweyo nguye,
9 ene yo o laleditseng o tlaa mo lere fa o ntseng gone mme a re, ‘A monna yoo a nne fa mo boemong jwa gago’. Mme wena, ka ditlhong o tlaa tshwanelwa ke go nna mo setilong se se setseng kwa morago ga lomati lwa bojelo!
futhi okunxusileyo wena laye eze athi kuwe: Mxekele lo; khona uzaqala ukuhlala endaweni esekucineni usulenhloni.
10 “Jaanong dira se mo boemong jwa seo, simolola kwa morago; mme fa yo o go laleditseng a go bona, o tlaa tla a go raya a re, ‘Tsala, re go bonetse bonno jo bo botoka go na le jo! Hong o tlaa tlotlega fa pele ga balalediwa ba bangwe botlhe!
Kodwa nxa unxusiwe, hamba uhlale endaweni esekucineni; ukuze, nxa efika okunxusileyo, athi kuwe: Mngane, yenyukela ngaphezulu; khona kuzakuba ludumo kuwe phambi kwabo abahlezi ekudleni lawe.
11 Gonne mongwe le mongwe yo o lekang go itlotla o tlaa ngotlafadiwa; mme yo o ikokobetsang o tlaa tlotlwa.’”
Ngoba wonke oziphakamisayo uzathotshiswa, lozithobayo uzaphakanyiswa.
12 Hong a retologela kwa go yo o mo laleditseng a re, “E re fa o dira dijo, o se ka wa laletsa ditsala, bomorwarrago, bagaeno, le bahumi! Gonne le bone ba tlaa go laletsa.
Wasesithi lakulowo owayemnxusile: Nxa usenza ukudla kwemini loba ukudla kwantambama, unganxusi abangane bakho, loba abafowenu, loba izihlobo zakho, loba omakhelwane abanothileyo; hlezi labo babuye bakunxuse, futhi ukwenananiswa kwenziwe kuwe.
13 Mme mo boemong jwa mo, o laletse bahumanegi, digole, batlhotsi le difofu.
Kodwa nxa usenza idili, nxusa abayanga, izilima, iziqhuli, iziphofu;
14 Hong e tlaa re ka tsogo ya basiami, Modimo o tlaa go duelela go laletsa ba ba se ka keng ba go laletsa.”
njalo uzabusiswa, ngoba abalalutho lokukwenanisa; ngoba uzakwenaniselwa ekuvukeni kwabalungileyo.
15 Erile monna mongwe yo o neng a ntse fa lomating lwa bojelo le Jesu a utlwa dilo tse a goa a re, “Go tlaa nna boitumelo jo bo kae go tsena mo Bogosing jwa Modimo!”
Kwathi omunye kwababehlezi laye ekudleni esezwile lezizinto wathi kuye: Ubusisiwe lowo ozakudla isinkwa embusweni kaNkulunkulu.
16 Mme Jesu a fetola ka setshwantsho se: “Monna mongwe o kile a baakanya modiro o mogolo mme a dira ditaletso tse dintsi.
Kodwa wathi kuye: Umuntu othile wenza ukudla kwantambama okukhulu, wanxusa abanengi.
17 Erile fa gotlhe go siame, a roma motlhanka wa gagwe go itsise balalediwa gore ke nako ya gore ba tle.
Ngesikhathi sokudla kwantambama wasethuma inceku yakhe ukuthi ithi kwabanxusiweyo: Wozani, ngoba sekulungisiwe konke.
18 Mme botlhe ba simolola go dira diipato. Mongwe a re, ke gone fela o neng a reka tshimo mme o batla go ya go e bona, mme a kopa go itshwarelwa.
Kodwa bonke baqala omunye lomunye ukuzixolisela. Owokuqala wathi kuye: Ngithenge insimu, ngimele ukuhamba ngiyeyibona; ngiyakuncenga, akungixolisele.
19 Yo mongwe a re ke gone fela a neng a reka sepane sa dipholo tse some mme o batla go di lekeletsa.
Lomunye wathi: Sengithenge izipane ezinhlanu zenkabi, ngiya ukuzilinga; ngiyakuncenga, akungixolisele.
20 Yo mongwe e ne e le gone fela a neng a nyala, ka lebaka leo ga aa ka a tla.
Lomunye wathi: Sengithethe umfazi, ngakho ngingeze ngeza.
21 “Motlhanka a boa a ya go bolelela mong wa gagwe se ba se buileng. Mong wa gagwe a gakatsega thata mme a mo raya a re, itlhaganelele mo mebileng le mo dikgorong tsa motse o laletse bakopi, digole, batlhotsi le difofu.
Isibuyile leyonceku yayibikela lezizinto inkosi yayo. Wasethukuthela umninindlu wathi encekwini yakhe: Phuma ngokuphangisa uye emigwaqweni lendleleni zomuzi, ulethe abayanga lezilima leziqhuli leziphofu ubangenise lapha.
22 Mme ga bo go santse go na le phatlha.
Inceku yasisithi: Nkosi, sekwenziwe njengokulaya kwakho, njalo indawo isesekhona.
23 “Mong wa gagwe a re, ‘Go siame, jaanong tswela mo diferwaneng tsa motse le mo morago ga dikgoro o kope mongwe le mongwe yo o mmonang go tla, gore ntlo e tle e tlale.
Yasisithi inkosi encekwini: Phuma uye ezindleleni lezintangweni ubacindezele bangene, ukuze igcwaliswe indlu yami.
24 Gonne ga go ope mo go ba ke ba laleditseng pele yo o tlaa itatswang mo go se ke se ba baakanyeditseng.’”
Ngoba ngithi kini: Kakho kulamadoda ayenxusiwe ozakuzwa ukudla kwami kwantambama.
25 Mme batho ba bantsi ba ne ba mo setse morago. Hong a retologa a ba raya a re,
Kwakuhamba laye amaxuku amanengi; wasetshibilika wathi kuwo:
26 “Fa mongwe a batla go nna molatedi wa me o tshwanetse go nthata bogolo go gaisa rraagwe, mmaagwe, mosadi wa gagwe, bana ba gagwe, bomonnawe kgotsa bokgaitsadie-ee, go gaisa le jone tota botshelo jwa gagwe, kwa ntle ga moo ga a ka ke a nna morutwa wa me.
Uba umuntu esiza kimi, futhi engazondi uyise, lonina, lomkakhe, labantwana, labafowabo, labodadewabo, yebo ngitsho leyakhe impilo, angebe ngumfundi wami.
27 Ebile ga go na ope yo o ka nnang morutwa wa me fa a sa sikare mokgoro wa gagwe a ntshala morago.
Njalo loba ngubani ongathwali isiphambano sakhe angilandele, angebe ngumfundi wami.
28 “Mme lo se ka lwa simolola go fitlhelela lo bala tlhwatlhwa. Gonne e mang yo o ka simololang kago, kwa ntle ga go bona pele tekanyo le go bona gore a o na le madi a a lekanyeng go duela melato.
Ngoba nguwuphi kini, othi efuna ukwakha umphotshongo, ongaqali ahlale phansi, abale indleko, ukuthi ulakho yini okokuqedisa?
29 E seng jalo, o ka kgona go fetsa motheo pele ga a tlhaelelwa ke madi. Mme ka ntlha ya moo mongwe le mongwe o ka mo tshega jang!
Ukuze hlezi, kuthi esebekile isisekelo kodwa angabi lamandla okuqeda, bonke abakubonayo baqale ukumhleka,
30 “Mme ba tlaa mo sotla ba re, ‘A lo bona motho yo o fa yole? O simolotse kago ele mme o tlhaeletswe ke madi pele ga a e fetsa!’
besithi: Lumuntu waqala ukwakha, kodwa kabanga lamandla okuqeda.
31 “Kgotsa ke efe kgosi e e ka lorang go ya ntweng pele ga e nna fa fatshe le bagakolodi ba yone ba buisanya gore a masole a selekanyo sa dikete tse di lesome a itekanetse go ka fenya a a dikete tse di masome a mabedi a a kgatlhanong nae?
Loba yiyiphi inkosi ezakuya empini imelene lenye inkosi engaqali ihlale phansi inakane ngokuthi ilamandla yini ngenkulungwane ezilitshumi okuhlangabezana laleyo eza ilenkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili ukumelana layo?
32 Mme fa mogopolo o sa kgonege, e re fa masole a mmaba a sa le kgakala, e rome batsereganyi go buisanya ka mafoko a kagiso.
Kodwa uba kungenjalo, ingathi isekhatshana leyo, ithume amanxusa icele okokuthula.
33 Jalo ga go na ope yo o ka nnang morutwa wa me fa a sa nna fa fatshe pele ga a bala masego a gagwe, mme a a latlhela otlhe mo go nna.
Ngakho kunjalo wonke kini ongadeli konke alakho, angeke aba ngumfundi wami.
34 Tshiamo ya letswai ke eng fa le latlhegetswe ke molodi?
Itshwayi lihle; kodwa uba itshwayi seliduma, lizavuselelwa ngani?
35 Letswai le le senang molodi ga le na tiro le fa e le go nna monontshane. Ga le na tiro mme le tshwanetse go latlhelwa kwa ntle. Reetsang sentle, fa lo batla go tlhaloganya phuthololo ya me.”
Kalifanele lamhlabathi ledundulu lomquba; kodwa liyalahlwa ngaphandle. Olendlebe zokuzwa, akezwe.
