Luke 12
1 Pea feʻunga mo ia, kuo fakakātoa ʻae fuʻu kakai taʻefaʻalaua, ʻonau femalakiʻaki ʻakinautolu, pea kamata lea ai ia, ʻo fuofua fai ki heʻene kau ākonga, “Mou vakai telia ʻae meʻa fakatupu ʻae kau Fālesi, ʻaia ko e mālualoi.
Ngalesosikhathi sekubuthene ixuku lezinkulungwane zabantu, sebenyathelana, uJesu waqala ukukhuluma kubafundi bakhe esithi, “Qaphelani imvubelo yabaFarisi, iyikuzenzisa.
2 He ʻoku ʻikai ha meʻa ʻoku ʻufiʻufi, ʻe taʻefakahā; pe fufū, ʻe taʻeʻiloa ia.
Kakukho okufihliweyo okungayi kuvezwa obala, lokufihliweyo okungayikwaziwa.
3 Pea ko ia kotoa pē kuo mou lea ʻaki ʻi he poʻuli, ʻe fanongo ia ʻi he maama; pea ko ia kuo mou fanafana ʻaki ʻi he ngaahi loki, ʻe kalangaekina ia mei he tuʻa fale.”
Lokho okukhulume emnyameni kuzazwakala emini lithe bha, lalokho obukunyenyezela endlebeni ezindlini zangaphakathi kuzamenyezelwa phezu kophahla lwezindlu.
4 “Pea ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu ko hoku kāinga, “ʻOua te mou manavahē kiate kinautolu ʻoku tāmateʻi ʻae sino, pea hili ia ʻoku ʻikai mo ha meʻa te nau faʻa fai.
Ngiyalitshela bangane, lingabesabi labo ababulala umzimba kungabikhona okunye abangakwenza ngemva kwalokho.
5 Ka te u fakahā kiate kimoutolu ʻaia te mou manavahē ki ai: manavahē kiate ia, ʻa ia, ʻoka hili ʻene tāmateʻi, ʻoku ne faʻa fai ke lī ki heli; ʻio, ʻoku ou pehē kiate kimoutolu, manavahē kiate ia. (Geenna g1067)
Kodwa ngizalitshengisa lowo okumele limesabe: Mesabeni lowo, othi esebulele umzimba, abe lamandla okuwuphosela esihogweni. Yebo, ngithi mesabeni. (Geenna g1067)
6 “ʻIkai ʻoku fakatau ʻae kihiʻi manupuna ʻe nima ʻaki ʻae paʻanga siʻi ʻe ua? Pea ʻoku ʻikai ngalo hanau taha ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua.
Intaka ezinhlanu kazithengiswa ngendibilitshi ezimbili na? Kodwa kayikho lanye yazo uNkulunkulu ayilibalayo.
7 Ka ko e ngaahi tuʻoni louʻulu ʻo homou ʻulu kuo lau kotoa pē. Ko ia ʻoua ʻe manavahē: [he ]ʻoku mou mahuʻinga hake ʻi he fanga kihiʻi manu lahi.
Ngempela, inwele zekhanda lakho zibaliwe. Lingesabi; lina liligugu ukwedlula intaka ezinengi.
8 “ʻOku ou tala foki kiate kimoutolu, Ko ia ia te ne fakahā au ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai, ʻe fakahā foki ia ʻe he Foha ʻoe tangata ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kau ʻāngelo ʻae ʻOtua.
Ngiyalitshela, lowo ongivuma phambi kwabantu, iNdodana yoMuntu layo izamvuma phambi kwezingilosi zikaNkulunkulu.
9 Ka ko ia ʻoku ne siʻaki au ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai, ʻe siʻaki ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kau ʻāngelo ʻae ʻOtua.
Kodwa lowo ongiphikayo phambi kwabantu uzaphikwa phambi kwezingilosi zikaNkulunkulu.
10 “Pea ko ia ʻe lea kovi ki he Foha ʻoe tangata, ʻe fakamolemole ia kiate ia; ka ko ia ʻoku ne lohiakiʻi ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, ʻe ʻikai fakamolemolea ia.
Njalo wonke umuntu okhuluma okubi ngeNdodana yoMuntu uzathethelelwa kodwa lowo ohlambaza uMoya oNgcwele akayikuthethelelwa.
11 “Pea ka nau ka ʻomi ʻakimoutolu ki he ngaahi falelotu, mo e kau fakamaau, mo e kau pule, ʻoua naʻa mou feinga pe fēfē pe ko e hā te mou tali ʻaki, pe ko ia te mou fakahā:
Nxa limiswa phambi kwamasinagogu, phambi kwababusi labaphathi, lingazihluphi ngokuthi lizazivikela lisithini kumbe ukuthi lizakuthini,
12 Koeʻuhi ʻe ako ʻe he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni kiate kimoutolu ʻi he feituʻulaʻā ko ia, ʻaia ʻoku totonu ke [mou ]lea ʻaki.”
ngoba uMoya oNgcwele uzalifundisa ngalesosikhathi lokho elifanele likutsho.”
13 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tokotaha ʻoe kakai kiate ia, “ʻEiki, ke ke leaange ki hoku tokoua ke ma vaeua mo au ʻae tofiʻa.”
Omunye emphakathini wathi kuye, “Mfundisi, tshela umfowethu ukuthi angabele ilifa lami.”
14 Pea pehē ʻe ia ki ai, “Tangata, Ko hai ne ne fakanofo au ko e fakamaau pe ko e tufaki kiate kimoutolu?”
UJesu waphendula wathi, “Ndoda, ngibekwe ngubani ukuba ngumahluleli kumbe umlamuli wenu?”
15 Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Tokanga pea vakai, telia ʻae manumanu: he ko e moʻui ʻae tangata ʻoku ʻikai ʻi hono lahi ʻoe ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ne maʻu.”
Wasesithi kubo, “Qaphelani! Limukani inhlobo zonke zobuhaga; isiqokoqela sempilo yomuntu kasikho ebunengini benotho yakhe.”
16 Pea naʻa ne lea ʻaki ʻae fakatātā kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “Naʻe fua ʻo lahi ʻaupito ʻae fonua ʻoe tangata koloaʻia ʻe tokotaha:
Wasebatshela umzekeliso wathi, “Insimu yenye indoda eyayinothile yaba lenala eyesabekayo.
17 Pea fifili ia ʻi hono loto, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko e hā te u fai, he ʻoku ʻikai ha potu ke fetuku ki ai ʻeku ngaahi fua?’
Yasinakana yathi, ‘Kambe ngenzeni? Angilandawo yokubeka amabele ami.’
18 Pea ne pehē, ‘Te u fai eni: te u vete hifo ʻa hoku ngaahi feleoko, ʻo langa ke lalahi; pea teu fetuku ki ai ʻa ʻeku ngaahi fua kotoa pē mo ʻeku koloa.
Yasisithi, ‘Nanku engizakwenza. Ngizazidiliza iziphala zami ngakhe ezinkulu kulalezi, besengithela khona wonke amabele ami kanye lezinye impahla zami.
19 Pea te u pehē ki hoku laumālie, “Laumālie, kuo fokotuʻumaʻu ʻae ngaahi meʻa lelei lahi ki he taʻu lahi; ke ke fiemālie pe, ʻo kai, mo inu, mo fiefia.”’
Ngizazitshela ngithi, “Usulezinto ezinengi ezinhle njalo ezizakwanela iminyaka eminengi. Kholisa impilo, udle, unathe uthokoze.”’
20 Ka naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻOtua kiate ia, ‘Ko e vale koe, ʻe toʻo ʻiate koe ʻi he poōni ʻa ho laumālie: pea [ʻe hoko ]ko e ngaahi meʻa ʻa hai ʻaia kuo ke tokonaki?’
Kodwa uNkulunkulu wathi kuye, ‘Wena siwula ndini! Ngalobubusuku impilo yakho izathathwa. Pho ngubani ozazuza lokhu obusuzilungisele khona na?’
21 “Pea ʻoku pehē ia ʻaia ʻoku ne fokotuʻu koloa maʻana, ka ʻoku ʻikai maʻumeʻa ki he ʻOtua.”
Yikho lokhu okuzakwenzeka kulowo ozibekela inotho kodwa enganothanga kuNkulunkulu.”
22 Pea pehē ʻe ia ki heʻene kau ākonga, “Ko ia ʻoku ou pehē ai kiate kimoutolu, ʻoua naʻa mou tokanga ki hoʻomou moʻui, ki ha meʻa te mou kai; pe ki he sino, pe ko e hā te mou ʻai ki ai.
UJesu wasesithi kubafundi bakhe: “Ngakho ngilitshela ukuthi lingakhathazeki ngokuphila kwenu, ukuthi lizakudlani kumbe ngomzimba wenu, ukuthi lizagqokani.
23 ʻOku lahi hake ʻae moʻui ʻi he meʻakai, mo e sino ʻi he kofu.
Impilo iyakudlula ukudla, lomzimba uyazedlula izembatho.
24 Tokanga ki he fanga leveni, he ʻoku ʻikai te nau tūtuuʻi pe tuʻusi; pea ʻoku ʻikai hanau fale koloa, pe feleoko ka ʻoku fafanga ʻe he ʻOtua ʻakinautolu pea ʻikai ʻoku mou lelei hake ʻaupito ʻi he fanga manu?
Khumbulani amawabayi, kawahlanyeli, kawavuni, kawalaso isiphala kodwa uNkulunkulu uyawapha ukudla. Manje lina liqakatheke okwedlula izinyoni!
25 Pea ko hai ia ʻiate kimoutolu ʻi heʻene tokanga ʻe faʻa fakalōloa siʻi ki heʻene moʻui?
Ngubani kini othi ngokukhathazeka angezelele ihola elilodwa empilweni yakhe na?
26 Pea kapau ʻoku ʻikai te mou mafai ʻaia ʻoku siʻi taha pe, ko e hā ʻoku mou tokanga ai ki he meʻa kehe?
Njengoba lingeke liyenze linto encinyane kangaka, lizihluphelani na ngokunengi?
27 Tokanga ki he tupu hake ʻoe fisiʻi ʻakau: ʻoku ʻikai ke nau ngāue, pea ʻoku ʻikai ke filo; ka ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, naʻe ʻikai tatau ʻae teunga ʻo Solomone ʻi hono nāunau fulipē mo ha taha ʻiate kinautolu ni.
Ake libone ukuthi amaluba eganga akhula njani. Kawasebenzi njalo aweluki. Kodwa ngilitshela ukuthi laye uSolomoni ekucwebezeleni kwakhe kazange acece njengawo.
28 Ko ia kapau ʻe fakakofu pehē ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae mohuku, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he ngoue he ʻaho ni, kae lī ki he ngotoʻumu ʻapongipongi; ʻikai ʻe lahi hake kiate kimoutolu, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku siʻi hoʻomou tui?
Nxa uNkulunkulu ececisa kanjalo utshani beganga, obukhona namuhla, kusasa sebuphoselwa emlilweni, kambe uzalicecisa kanganani na, lina bokukholwa okuncinyane!
29 “Pea ʻoua naʻa mou kumi ki ha meʻa te mou kai, mo e meʻa te mou inu, pea ʻoua naʻa mou loto fakataʻetaʻetui.
Lingazihluphi ezinhliziyweni zenu ngokuthi lizakudlani kumbe lizanathani; lingakhathazeki ngalokho.
30 He ko e meʻa kotoa pē eni ʻoku kumi ki ai ʻe he ngaahi kakai ʻo māmani: pea ʻoku ʻilo ʻe hoʻomou Tamai ʻoku mou masiva ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ni.
Ngoba umhlaba wabezizwe uxotshana lezinto ezinjalo, ikanti uYihlo uyazi ukuthi liyazidinga.
31 Kae kumi muʻa ʻakimoutolu ki he puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua: pea ʻe fakalahi ʻaki kiate kimoutolu ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē.
Kodwa funani umbuso wakhe, zonke lezizinto lizaziphiwa lazo.
32 “ʻAe fanga sipi siʻi, ʻOua ʻe manavahē he ko e finangalo lelei ʻo hoʻomou Tamai ke foaki ʻae puleʻanga kiate kimoutolu.
Lingesabi, mhlambi omncane, ngoba uYihlo uthandile ukulipha umbuso.
33 Fakatau atu ʻaia ʻoku mou maʻu, pea faʻa foaki; tokonaki maʻamoutolu ʻae ngaahi kato ʻe ʻikai fakaʻaʻau ke motuʻa, ko e koloa ʻi he langi ʻe ʻikai ʻosi, pea ʻe ʻikai ofi ki ai ha kaihaʻa, pe fakapopo [ia ]ʻe he ane.
Thengisani impahla yenu liphe abampofu. Zidingeleni izikhwama ezingagugiyo, inotho ezulwini engayikuphela, lapho okungasondeli khona isela loba impehlane engabhubhisi khona.
34 He ko e potu ʻoku ʻi ai hoʻomou koloa, ʻe ʻi ai foki mo homou loto.
Ngoba lapho okulenotho yakho khona, inhliziyo yakho layo ilapho.”
35 “Tuku ke nonoʻo pe homou noʻotanga vala, pea ulo [hoʻomou ]ngaahi maama.
“Gqokani lilindele inkonzo lezibane zenu zihlale zibhebha
36 Pea ke tatau ʻakimoutolu mo e kau tangata ʻoku tatali ki he liliu mai ʻa honau ʻeiki mei he taʻane; koeʻuhi ka haʻu ia ʻo tukituki, ke nau toʻo leva kiate ia.
njengamadoda elindele inkosi yawo ukuba ibuye edilini lomthimba ukuze kuthi nxa ifika iqoqoda aphange ayivulele umnyango.
37 ʻOku monūʻia ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ko ia, ʻoka haʻu ʻae ʻeiki pea ne ʻilo ʻoku nau leʻo: ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, te ne nonoʻo ia, ʻo pule ke nau nofo hifo ki he kai, pea haʻu ia ʻo tauhi ʻakinautolu.
Kuzakuba kuhle kulezozinceku inkosi yazo ezazifica zilindile nxa ifika. Ngilitshela iqiniso ukuthi yona izagqokela ukubaphakela, bona bahlale etafuleni, yona ibaphakele.
38 Pea kapau ʻe haʻu ia ʻi hono ua ʻoe leʻo, pe haʻu ʻi hono tolu ʻoe leʻo, pea ne ʻilo ʻoku pehē pe, ʻe monūʻia ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ko ia.
Kuzakuba kuhle kulezozinceku inkosi yazo ezazifica zilindile loba ingabe ifika ngomlindo wesibili loba owesithathu ebusuku.
39 Pea ʻilo eni, ka ne ʻilo ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe fale ʻa e feituʻupō ko ia ʻe haʻu ai ʻae kaihaʻa, [pehē], ne leʻo ia, ka ʻe ʻikai tuku ke hae hono fale.
Kodwa zwisisani lokhu: Aluba umninindlu ubesazi ukuthi isela lizafika ngasiphi isikhathi ubengasoze ayekele indlu yakhe igqekezwe.
40 Ko ia mou teuteu pe foki: he ko e feituʻulaʻā ʻoku ʻikai te mou ʻamanaki ki ai, ʻe haʻu ai ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata.”
Lani hlalani lilindile ngoba iNdodana yoMuntu izafika ngesikhathi elingayilindelanga ngaso.”
41 Pea toki pehē ʻe Pita kiate ia, “ʻEiki, ʻoku ke lea ʻaki mai ʻae fakatātā ni kiate kimautolu, pe ki [he kakai ]kotoa pē?”
UPhethro wabuza wathi, “Nkosi, umzekeliso lo uwuqondise kithi kumbe ebantwini bonke na?”
42 Pea pehē ʻe he ʻEiki, “He ko hai ʻae tauhi angatonu mo poto, ʻe fakanofo ʻe heʻene ʻeiki ke pule ki hono kau nofoʻanga, ke ʻatu ʻae tufakanga ʻi hono feituʻu totonu?
INkosi yaphendula yathi, “Ngubani kambe ongumphathi othembekileyo, ohlakaniphileyo, othi inkosi yakhe imbeke ukukhangela izisebenzi zayo ukuba aziphe isabelo sazo sokudla ngesikhathi esifaneleyo?
43 ʻE monūʻia ʻae tamaioʻeiki ko ia, ʻoka haʻu ʻene ʻeiki ʻo ne ʻilo ʻoku fai pehē pe ia.
Kuzakuba kuhle kuleyo nceku inkosi ezayifica isenza njalo ekuphendukeni kwayo.
44 Ko ʻeku tala moʻoni kiate kimoutolu, Te ne fakanofo ia ke pule ki heʻene meʻa kotoa pē.
Ngilitshela iqiniso, izakumbeka ukuthi aphathe yonke impahla yayo.
45 Pea ka pehē ʻe he tamaioʻeiki ko ia ʻi hono loto, ‘ʻOku fakatuotuai ʻe heʻeku ʻeiki ʻa ʻene haʻu;’ pea hanga ia ʻo taaʻi ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki mo e kau kaunanga, pea kai mo inu ke konā:
Kodwa cabanga nxa inceku ingazitshela ithi, ‘Inkosi yami isiphuzile ukubuya,’ ibisiqalisa ukutshaya ezinye izisebenzi zesilisa lezesifazane, ibisisidla, inatha idakwe.
46 ʻE haʻu ʻae ʻeiki ʻoe tamaioʻeiki ko ia ʻi ha ʻaho ʻe ʻikai ʻamanaki ia ki ai, pea ʻi ha feituʻulaʻā ʻe ʻikai tokanga ai ia, ʻo tuʻusi ia, pea tuʻutuʻuni ke ne ʻinasi fakataha mo e taʻetui.
Inkosi yaleyonceku izabuya ngosuku engacatshangelwa khona langesikhathi inceku engasaziyo. Izayiqumaquma iyiphe indawo phakathi kwabangakholwayo.
47 Pea ko e tamaioʻeiki ko ia naʻe ʻilo ʻae loto ʻo ʻene ʻeiki, ka naʻe ʻikai ke teuteu, pe fai ʻo fakatatau mo hono loto, ʻe taaʻi ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi tā lahi.
Leyonceku ethi ikwazi okufunwa yinkosi yayo kodwa ingalindi kumbe ingalungisi lokho inkosi yayo ekufunayo izatshaywa okuzwayo.
48 Ka ko ia naʻe ʻikai ʻiloa, pea fai ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ngali mo e tautea, ʻe taaʻi ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi tā siʻi. He ko ia ia kuo tuku ki ai ʻae meʻa lahi, ʻe ʻamanaki lahi ʻiate ia; pea ko ia kuo tuku ki ai ʻe he kakai ʻae meʻa lahi, ʻe lahi ai ʻenau ʻamanaki ʻiate ia.
Kodwa lowo ongaziyo njalo owenza izinto eziholela ekubhujisweni uzatshaywa mbijana. Kulowo ophiwe okunengi, kuzafuneka okunengi kuye; lakulowo ogciniswe okunengi, kuzafuneka okunengi kulalokho.”
49 “Kuo u haʻu ke tuku ʻae afi ki māmani; pea ko e hā hoku loto, ʻo kapau kuo tutu ni ia?
“Ngilande ukuzalumathisa umlilo emhlabeni, ngize ngifise ukuthi ngabe uvele usungunguma!
50 ʻOku ai ʻae papitaiso ke u papitaiso ai; pea ʻoku ou feinga kaeʻoua ke fai ia!
Kodwa ngiseselobhaphathizo okusamele ngilungene, kodwa ngikhathazekile kakhulu kuze kugcwaliseke lokho!
51 ʻOku mou mahalo kuo u haʻu ke tuku ʻae melino ki māmani? ʻOku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, ʻIkai; ka ko e mavahevahe:
Licabanga ukuthi ngalanda ukuletha ukuthula emhlabeni na? Hatshi, zwanini, ngalanda ukuzehlukanisa.
52 Ngata heni ʻe feʻiteʻitani ʻae toko nima ʻi he fale pe taha, ko e toko tolu ki he toko ua, mo e toko ua ki he toko tolu.
Kusukela manje bazakuthi bebahlanu emulini behlukane, abathathu bexabana lababili, lababili bexabana labathathu.
53 ʻE feʻiteʻitani ʻae tamai ki he foha, mo e foha ki he tamai; ko e faʻē ki he taʻahine, mo e taʻahine ki he faʻē; ko e faʻē ʻi he fono ki heʻene taʻahine ʻi he fono, mo e taʻahine ʻi he fono ki heʻene faʻē ʻi he fono.”
Bazakwehlukana, uyise axabane lendodana, indodana ixabane loyise, unina lendodakazi, indodakazi ixabane lonina, uninazala axabane lomalukazana, umalukazana loninazala.”
54 Pea naʻa ne pehē foki ki he kakai, “ʻOka mou ka mamata ki he ʻalu hake ʻae ʻao mei he tokanga laʻā, ʻoku mou pehē leva, ʻOku haʻu ʻae ʻuha; pea ʻoku pehē.
Wathi exukwini labantu: “Lithi lingabona iyezi liqhamuka entshonalanga liphange lithi, ‘Izulu lizakuna,’ lakanye line.
55 Pea ʻoka angi mai ʻae matangi mei he feituʻu tonga, ʻoku mou pehē, ʻE pupuha pea ʻoku pehē.
Kuthi kungavunguza umoya weningizimu lithi, ‘Kuzatshisa,’ lakanye kube njalo.
56 ʻAe kau mālualoi, ʻoku mou ʻilo ʻae mata ʻoe fonua pea mo e langi; ka ko e hā ʻoku ʻikai te mou ʻilo ai ʻae kuonga ni?
Bazenzisi! Liyakwazi ukuchaza izibonakaliso zomhlaba lezomkhathi. Kungani pho lingakwazi ukuchaza isikhathi lesi esikuso na?
57 ʻIo, pea ko e hā ʻoku ʻikai te mou ʻilo ʻekimoutolu ʻaia ʻoku totonu?
Kungani kanti lingaziboneli lina ngokwenu okuyikho okulungileyo na?
58 “ʻOka ke ka ʻalu mo ho fili ki he fakamaau, ke ke fai feinga ʻi he hala, koeʻuhi ke ke hao meiate ia, telia naʻa ne ʻave koe ki he fakamaau, pea tukuange Koe ʻe he fakamaau ki he matāpule pea ʻe lī koe ʻe he matāpule ki he fale fakapōpula.
Nxa uhamba lalowo okumangalelayo lisiya kumahluleli, zama ngamandla ukuthi liqedelane lisesendleleni, funa akudonsele kumahluleli, lomahluleli abesekudlulisela enxuseni lona inxusa likuthele entolongweni.
59 ʻOku ou tala kiate koe, ʻE ʻikai te ke ʻalu mei ai, kaeʻoua ke ke ʻatu ʻae totongi kotoa pē.”
Ngiyakutshela, kawusoze uphume uze uhlawule kanye lohlamvana lokucina lwemali.”
