Ndebele - Matthew - 22

22:1  UJesu wasephendula wabuya wakhuluma labo ngemifanekiso, wathi:

22:2  Umbuso wamazulu ufananiswa lomuntu oyinkosi, owenzela indodana yakhe idili lomtshado;

22:3  wasethuma inceku zakhe ukuthi zibize abanxusiweyo emtshadweni, kodwa kabavumanga ukubuya.

22:4  Wabuya wathuma ezinye inceku, esithi: Batsheleni abanxusiweyo ukuthi: Khangelani, sengilungisile ukudla kwami kwemini, inkabi zami lokunonileyo sekuhlatshiwe, izinto zonke sezilungile; wozani emtshadweni.

22:5  Kodwa kabananzanga, bazihambela, omunye ensimini yakhe, omunye ekuthengiselaneni kwakhe;

22:6  abaseleyo basebezibamba inceku zakhe baziphatha kubi bazibulala.

22:7  Kodwa kwathi inkosi ikuzwa lokho yathukuthela, yathuma amabutho ayo yabhubhisa labobabulali, yatshisa umuzi wabo.

22:8  Yasisithi encekwini zayo: Umtshado usulungile, kodwa abanxusiweyo bebengafanelanga.

22:9  Ngakho yanini emahlanganweni ezindlela, njalo bonke elingabathola, libabizele emtshadweni.

22:10  Lezonceku zaseziphuma zaya ezindleleni zabutha bonke ezabatholayo, ababi kanye labalungileyo; indlu yomtshado yasigcwala ngabahleziyo.

22:11  Kwathi inkosi ingena ukukhangela ababehlezi ekudleni yabona khona umuntu owayengembathanga isembatho somtshado;

22:12  yasisithi kuye: Mngane, ungene njani lapha ungelasembatho somtshado? Kodwa yena waqunywa umlomo.

22:13  Inkosi yasisithi ezincekwini: Mbopheni inyawo lezandla, limsuse limphosele emnyameni ongaphandle; lapho kuzakuba khona ukukhala lokugedla amazinyo.

22:14  Ngoba banengi ababiziweyo, kodwa balutshwana abakhethiweyo.

22:15  Khona-ke abaFarisi basuka, bacebisana ngokuthi bangamthiya njani ekukhulumeni.

22:16  Basebethuma kuye abafundi babo kanye labakaHerodi, besithi: Mfundisi, siyazi ukuthi wena uqotho, ufundisa indlela kaNkulunkulu ngeqiniso, kawukhathaleli muntu, ngoba kawunanzi isimo sabantu.

22:17  Ngakho sitshele, wena ucabangani? Kuvunyelwe yini ukuthela kuKesari, kumbe hatshi?

22:18  Kodwa uJesu ebazi ububi babo wathi: Bazenzisi, lingilingelani?

22:19  Ngitshengisani imali yokuthela. Basebeletha kuye udenariyo*.

22:20  Wasesithi kubo: Ngokabani lumfanekiso lalumbhalo?

22:21  Bathi: NgokaKesari. Wasesithi kubo: Ngakho mnikeni uKesari izinto zikaKesari; loNkulunkulu izinto zikaNkulunkulu.

22:22  Kwathi sebezwile bamangala; bamtshiya bahamba.

22:23  Ngalolosuku kweza kuye abaSadusi, abathi kakukho ukuvuka kwabafileyo, basebembuza,

22:24  besithi: Mfundisi, uMozisi wathi: Uba umuntu esifa engelabantwana, umfowabo uzamthatha umkakhe, amvusele umfowabo inzalo.

22:25  Kwakukhona phakathi kwethu izelamani eziyisikhombisa; owokuqala wasethatha umfazi wafa; futhi engelanzalo, watshiya umkakhe kumfowabo.

22:26  Kwaba njalo lowesibili, lowesithathu, kwaze kwaba kowesikhombisa.

22:27  Kwathi emva kwabo bonke kwafa lomfazi.

22:28  Ngakho ekuvukeni kwabafileyo, uzakuba ngumkabani kwabayisikhombisa? Ngoba bonke babelaye.

22:29  Kodwa uJesu waphendula wathi kubo: Liduhile, lingayazi imibhalo, loba amandla kaNkulunkulu;

22:30  ngoba ekuvukeni kwabafileyo kabathathani, kabendiswa, kodwa banjengengilosi zikaNkulunkulu ezulwini.

22:31  Kodwa mayelana lokuvuka kwabafileyo, kalifundanga yini okwakhulunywa kini nguNkulunkulu, esithi:

22:32  Mina nginguNkulunkulu kaAbrahama, loNkulunkulu kaIsaka, loNkulunkulu kaJakobe? UNkulunkulu kayisuye uNkulunkulu wabafileyo, kodwa owabaphilayo.

22:33  Kwathi amaxuku ekuzwa amangala kakhulu ngokufundisa kwakhe.

22:34  Kwathi abaFarisi, sebezwile ukuthi uJesu ubaqume umlomo abaSadusi, babuthana ndawonye.

22:35  Lomunye wabo, isazumthetho, wambuza, emlinga, esithi:

22:36  Mfundisi, yiwuphi umlayo omkhulu emthethweni?

22:37  UJesu wasesithi kuye: Wothanda iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho, ngenhliziyo yakho yonke, langomphefumulo wakho wonke, langengqondo yakho yonke;

22:38  yiwo lowo umlayo owokuqala lomkhulu.

22:39  Lowesibili ufanana lawo uthi: Wothanda umakhelwane wakho njengalokhu uzithanda wena.

22:40  Kuleyomilayo emibili kweyeme umthetho wonke labaprofethi.

22:41  Kwathi sebebuthene abaFarisi, uJesu wababuza,

22:42  esithi: Licabangani ngoKristu? Uyindodana kabani? Bathi kuye: NgekaDavida.

22:43  Wathi kubo: Pho uDavida wambiza njani ekuMoya ngokuthi yiNkosi, esithi:

22:44  INkosi yathi eNkosini yami: Hlala ngakwesokunene sami, ngize ngenze izitha zakho zibe yisenabelo senyawo zakho?

22:45  Ngakho uba uDavida embiza ngokuthi yiNkosi, uyiNdodana yakhe njani?

22:46  Njalo kwakungekho owayengamphendula ilizwi; kusukela ngalolosuku kakwabe kusaba khona umuntu olesibindi sokumbuza.
