Chapter 11
Luke Ndebele 11:1  Kwasekusithi ekhuleka endaweni ethile, eseqedile, omunye wabafundi bakhe wathi kuye: Nkosi, sifundise ukukhuleka, njengoJohane laye wafundisa abafundi bakhe.
Luke Ndebele 11:2  Wasesithi kubo: Nxa likhuleka, libokuthi: Baba wethu osemazulwini, kalihlonitshwe ibizo lakho. Umbuso wakho kawuze. Intando yakho kayenziwe, lemhlabeni njengezulwini.
Luke Ndebele 11:3  Siphe usuku ngosuku ukudla kwethu kwensuku zonke.
Luke Ndebele 11:4  Njalo usithethelele izono zethu, ngoba lathi sibathethelela bonke abalamacala kithi. Njalo ungasingenisi ekulingweni, kodwa usikhulule ebubini.
Luke Ndebele 11:5  Wasesithi kubo: Nguwuphi kini olomngane, futhi aye kuye phakathi kobusuku, athi kuye: Mngane, ngeboleka izinkwa ezintathu,
Luke Ndebele 11:6  ngoba kufike kimi umngane wami evela ekuhambeni, kodwa kangilalutho engingalubeka phambi kwakhe;
Luke Ndebele 11:7  longaphakathi aphendule athi: Ungangihluphi; umnyango usuvaliwe, labantwana bami abancane balami embhedeni; kangingeke ngivuke ngikunike.
Luke Ndebele 11:8  Ngithi kini: Loba engazukuvuka amnike, ngoba engumngane wakhe, kodwa ngenxa yokuphikelela kwakhe uzavuka amnike konke akuswelayo.
Luke Ndebele 11:9  Mina-ke ngithi kini: Celani, lizaphiwa; dingani, lizathola; qoqodani, lizavulelwa.
Luke Ndebele 11:10  Ngoba wonke ocelayo uyemukela; lodingayo uyathola; loqoqodayo uyavulelwa.
Luke Ndebele 11:11  Kambe, nguwuphi kini onguyise ongathi indodana icela isinkwa, ayinike ilitshe? Loba-ke inhlanzi, ayinike inyoka endaweni yenhlanzi yini?
Luke Ndebele 11:13  Ngakho uba lina elingababi likwazi ukupha abantwana benu izipho ezinhle, kakhulu kangakanani uBaba osezulwini ezabapha uMoya oNgcwele abacela kuye.
Luke Ndebele 11:14  Wayesekhupha idimoni, elaliyisimungulu. Kwasekusithi, seliphumile idimoni, wakhuluma oyisimungulu; amaxuku asemangala.
Luke Ndebele 11:15  Kodwa abanye babo bathi: Ukhupha amadimoni ngoBhelezebhule inkosi yamadimoni.
Luke Ndebele 11:16  Labanye bemlinga badinga kuye isibonakaliso esivela ezulwini.
Luke Ndebele 11:17  Kodwa yena eyazi imicabango yabo wathi kubo: Wonke umbuso owehlukene umelene lawo ngokwawo uyachitheka; njalo indlu emelene lendlu iyadilika.
Luke Ndebele 11:18  Njalo uba uSathane laye ehlukene emelane laye ngokwakhe, umbuso wakhe uzakuma njani? Ngoba lithi, ngikhupha amadimoni ngoBhelezebhule.
Luke Ndebele 11:19  Njalo uba mina ngikhupha amadimoni ngoBhelezebhule, amadodana enu akhupha ngobani? Ngakho wona azakuba ngabagwebi benu.
Luke Ndebele 11:20  Kodwa uba ngikhupha amadimoni ngomunwe kaNkulunkulu, isibili umbuso kaNkulunkulu usufikile kini.
Luke Ndebele 11:21  Uba isiqhwaga sihlomile silinda owaso umuzi, impahla yaso isekuthuleni;
Luke Ndebele 11:22  kodwa nxa olamandla kulaso esisukela asinqobe, uyasemuka izikhali zaso ebesithembele kuzo, abesesaba impango yaso.
Luke Ndebele 11:23  Ongelami umelene lami; longabuthi lami uyachithiza.
Luke Ndebele 11:24  Nxa umoya ongcolileyo esephumile emuntwini, uyahamba adabule indawo ezomileyo, edinga ukuphumula; kodwa engakutholi athi: Ngizabuyela endlini yami engaphuma kuyo;
Luke Ndebele 11:25  njalo esefikile ayifice ithanyelwe njalo ilungisiwe.
Luke Ndebele 11:26  Abesehamba azithathele abanye omoya abayisikhombisa ababi kulaye uqobo, bangene bahlale lapho; njalo ukucina kwalowomuntu kube kubi kulokuqala.
Luke Ndebele 11:27  Kwasekusithi ekhuluma lezizinto, owesifazana othile exukwini waphakamisa ilizwi, wathi kuye: Sibusisiwe isisu esakuthwalayo, lamabele owawamunyayo.
Luke Ndebele 11:28  Kodwa yena wathi: Kodwa ikakhulu babusisiwe abalizwayo ilizwi likaNkulunkulu balilondoloze.
Luke Ndebele 11:29  Kwathi sekubuthene amaxuku eminyene, waqala ukuthi: Lesi isizukulwana sibi; sidinga isibonakaliso, kodwa kasiyikunikwa isibonakaliso, ngaphandle kwesibonakaliso sikaJona umprofethi.
Luke Ndebele 11:30  Ngoba njengalokhu uJona waba yisibonakaliso kwabeNineve, leNdodana yomuntu izakuba njalo kulesisizukulwana.
Luke Ndebele 11:31  Indlovukazi yeningizimu izasukuma ekugwetshweni kanye lamadoda alesisizukulwana, iwalahle; ngoba yavela emikhawulweni yomhlaba ukuzakuzwa inhlakanipho kaSolomoni, njalo khangelani, omkhulu kuloSolomoni ulapha.
Luke Ndebele 11:32  Amadoda eNineve azasukuma ekugwetshweni kanye lalesisizukulwana, asilahle; ngoba aphenduka ngokutshumayela kukaJona, njalo khangelani, omkhulu kuloJona ulapha.
Luke Ndebele 11:33  Futhi kakho othi eselumathise isibane asibeke ekusithekeni, loba ngaphansi kwesitsha, kodwa phezu kwesiqobane sesibane, ukuze abangenayo babone ukukhanya.
Luke Ndebele 11:34  Isibane somzimba yilihlo; ngakho nxa ilihlo lakho liphilile, lomzimba wakho wonke ugcwele ukukhanya; kodwa nxa lilibi, lomzimba wakho ulobumnyama.
Luke Ndebele 11:35  Ngakho qaphela ukuthi ukukhanya okukuwe kungabi ngumnyama.
Luke Ndebele 11:36  Ngakho uba umzimba wakho wonke ugcwele ukukhanya, ungelandawo emnyama, uzakhanya wonke, njengesibane sikukhanyisa ngokukhanya.
Luke Ndebele 11:37  Kwathi esakhuluma, umFarisi othile wamcela ukuthi adle laye; wasengena wahlala ekudleni.
Luke Ndebele 11:38  Kwathi umFarisi ebona lokhu wamangala ukuthi kazange aqale ageze phambi kokudla kwemini.
Luke Ndebele 11:39  Yasisithi iNkosi kuye: Khathesi lina baFarisi lihlambulula ingaphandle yenkezo leyesitsha, kodwa ingaphakathi yenu igcwele ukuphanga lobubi.
Luke Ndebele 11:40  Zithutha, yena owenza ingaphandle kayenzanga yini lengaphakathi?
Luke Ndebele 11:41  Kodwa phanini zibe yizipho zabayanga lezozinto ezingaphakathi; khangelani-ke, konke kuzahlambuluka kini.
Luke Ndebele 11:42  Kodwa maye kini baFarisi! Ngoba lithela okwetshumi kwetshwayi leganga leruwi*, lakuyo yonke imibhida, njalo liseqa ukwehlulela lothando lukaNkulunkulu; belifanele ukwenza lezizinto, lingakuyekeli lalokhu.
Luke Ndebele 11:43  Maye kini baFarisi! Ngoba lithanda izihlalo zabahloniphekayo emasinagogeni, lokubingelelwa emidangeni.
Luke Ndebele 11:44  Maye kini, babhali labaFarisi, bazenzisi! Ngoba lifanana lamangcwaba angabonakaliyo, labantu abahamba phezu kwawo bengawazi.
Luke Ndebele 11:45  Omunye wezazumthetho wasephendula wathi kuye: Mfundisi, ngokutsho lezizinto uyasithuka lathi.
Luke Ndebele 11:46  Kodwa wathi: Maye lakini zazumthetho! Ngoba lethwesa abantu imithwalo enzima ukuthwalwa, kodwa lina uqobo lwenu kaliyithinti leyomithwalo langomunye weminwe yenu.
Luke Ndebele 11:47  Maye kini! Ngoba lakha amangcwaba abaprofethi, njalo oyihlo bababulala.
Luke Ndebele 11:48  Ngalokhu-ke lifakaza ukuthi livumelana lemisebenzi yaboyihlo; ngoba bona bababulala, lina-ke liyawakha amangcwaba abo.
Luke Ndebele 11:49  Ngalokhu-ke inhlakanipho kaNkulunkulu yathi: Ngizabathuma abaprofethi labaphostoli, labanye babo bazababulala babaxotshe;
Luke Ndebele 11:50  ukuze kubizwe kulesisizukulwana igazi labaprofethi bonke elachithwa kusukela ekusekelweni komhlaba,
Luke Ndebele 11:51  kusukela egazini likaAbela kuze kufike egazini likaZakariya owabulawa phakathi laphakathi kwelathi lendlu kaNkulunkulu; yebo, ngithi kini: Lizabizwa kulesisizukulwana.
Luke Ndebele 11:52  Maye kini zazumthetho! Ngoba lisusile isihluthulelo solwazi; kalingenanga lina uqobo lwenu, labangenayo labavimbela.
Luke Ndebele 11:53  Kwathi ekhuluma lezizinto kubo, ababhali labaFarisi baqala ukumngxamela kakhulukazi, lokumbuzisisa ngezinto ezinengi,
Luke Ndebele 11:54  bemthiya, bedinga ukubamba ulutho oluphuma emlonyeni wakhe, ukuze bambeke icala.
