UJesu noZakewu
1UJesu wangena eJerikho, wadabula khona. 2Lapho bekunendoda ebekuthiwa nguZakewu imthelisi omkhulu begodu isikhumkani. 3Yena wafuna ukubona bonyana uJesu lo ungubani, kodwana ngombana bekamfitjhani azange akghone ukumbona ngebanga lesiqubuthu. 4Yeke wagijimela ngaphambili wayokukhwela emthini wamakhiwani wommango ngombana uJesu begade azokudlula lapho. 5UJesu wathi nafika lapho, waqala phezulu wathi: “Zakewu, rhaba wehle emthinapho ngombana ngifanele ngiyokuhlala ngakwakho namhlanjesi.”
6Yeke wehla msinyana, wamamukela ngethabo. 7Boke abantu bakubona lokho, nje-ke bathoma ukunghonghoyila bathi: “Ungene kobana abe myeni emzini wesoni!” 8Kodwana uZakewu wasikima wathi eKosini: “Qala, Kosi! Nginikela abadududu isiquntu selifa lami khona nje, begodu nakube kukhona engimgalaje ngananyana yini, ngizakukhokhela ngokubuyelelwe kane kwalokho.”
9UJesu wathi: “Namhlanjesi isindiso ingene kilelikhaya ngombana naye lo uyindodana ka-Abrahamu. 10INdodana yoMuntu izele ukuzokufuna nokusindisa okulahlekileko.”
Umfanekiso ngesipaparwana segolide
(Mt 25:14-30)
11Kuthe abantu basalalele lokho, uJesu waraga ngokubatjela umfanekiso ngombana begade aseduze kweJerusalema begodu abantu bebadlumbana bona umbuso kaZimu bewuzokuvela khonokho. 12Wathi kibo: “Umuntu obegade abelethwa emzini ohloniphekileko waya enarheni ekude ayokwenza bona abekwe ikosi bese uyabuya. 13Yeke wabiza itjhumi lamanye wamakhobokakhe, wawanikela abomina. abalitjhumi wathi kiwo, ‘Sebenzisani lokhu kufikela bengibuye.’ 14Kodwana abantu bakhe bebamhloyile, yeke bathumela abazenda ngemva kwakhe bona bayokuthi, ‘Asimfuni umuntu lo bona abe yikosethu.’
15“Nanyana kunjalo, wabekwa waba yikosi, yeke wabuyela ekhaya. Khonokho wabiza amakhoboka ebegade awanikele imali ukuze afunyane bona azuzeni ngayo. 16Lokuthoma leza lafika lathi, ‘Kosi, umina wakho uzuze itjhumi ngaphezulu.’ 17Wathi kilo, ‘Wenze kuhle, khoboka lami elilungileko! Njengombana wethembekile kokuncani, ngizakubeka bona uphathe amadorobho alitjhumi.’ 18Lesibili nalo leza lathi, ‘Kosi, abomina bakho bazuze abahlanu ngaphezulu.’ 19Kilelo wathi, ‘Uzakuphatha amadorobho amahlanu.’
20“Yeke kweza elinye ikhoboka lathi, ‘Kosi, nangu umina wakho, bengimfihlile ngimphuthele ngetjhila. 21Bengikwesaba ngombana umumuntu olikhuni. Uthatha ongakakubeki, uvune ongakakutjali.’ 22Wathi kilo, ‘Ngizokugweba ngamagamakho wena khoboka elikhohlakeleko ndina. Angithi bewazi bonyana ngimumuntu olikhuni, ngithatha engingakakubeki, ngivune engingakakutjali? 23Alo, kubayini-ke ungazange usisise imalami ebulungelweni ukuze kuthi nangibuyako ngiyifunyane inenzalo na?’
24“Yeke wathi kilabo ebegade bajame lapho, ‘Lemukeni umina lo, ninikele onabomina abalitjhumi.’ 25Kodwana bamphendula bathi, ‘Kosi, angithi loyo sele anabomina abalitjhumi!’ 26Wabaphendula wathi, ‘Ngiyanitjela bona woke onokunengi, uzakuphiwa ngaphezu kwalokho, kodwana onganalitho yena, uzakwemukwa ngitjho nalokho anakho. 27Nje-ke ngithi nakuzizitha zami ebezingafuni bona ngibe yikosi phezu kwazo, yeniziletheni lapha, nizibulale phambi kwamapha.’ ”
UJesu ungena eJerusalema ngedumo
(Mt 21:1-11; Mk 11:1-11; Jwan 12:12-19)
28UJesu watjho lokho wakhamba wayokungena eJerusalema. 29Kuthe natjhidela eBhethifage neBhethaniya embundwini obewubizwa bona yintaba ye-Oliva, wathumela babili babafundi bakhe, 30wathi kibo: “Khambani niye emzini ongaphambi kwenu, nizakuthi naningenako nifumane udumbana okungazange kukhwele muntu phezu kwakhe abotjhiwe. Mtjhaphululeni, nimlethapha. 31Nakukhona onibuza athi, ‘Nimtjhaphululelani?’, nimtjele nithi, ‘IKosi iyamdinga.’ ”
32Labo ebebathunyiwe bakhamba, bafunyana koke kunjengombana uJesu atjhwile. 33Kwathi nabasatjhaphulula udumbana, umnikazi wababuza wathi: “Nimtjhaphululelani udumbana na?”
34Bamphendula bathi: “IKosi iyamdinga.” 35Baletha udumbana loyo kuJesu, babeka izambatho zabo phezu kwakhe, bakhweza uJesu. 36Kwathi nakhambako, abantu baqhisa izambatho zabo endleleni.
37Nafika emehlelweni wentaba ye-Oliva, soke isiqubuthu sabafundi sathoma sadumisa uZimu ngetokozo, sihlokoma ngayo yoke imikarisomraro esiyibonileko, 38sathi:
“Ubusisiwe loyo ozako,
iye, iKosi eza ebizweni lakaSomnini!
Ukuthula ezulwini nephazimulo keliphezulu!”
39Yeke abanye babaFarisi hlangana nesiqubuthu bathi kuJesu: “Mfundisi, khalimela abafundi bakhwaba!”
40UJesu wabaphendula wathi: “Ngiyanitjela bona nabathulako laba, amatje azakurhuwelela.”
UJesu ulilela iJerusalema
41Kwathi natjhidelako, abona idorobho, walililela 42wathi: “Ngathana namhlanjesi bewusazi bona yini engakulethela ukuthula! Kodwana kufihlekile emehlwenakho! 43Uzakufikelwa malanga lapho izitha zakho zizakwakhela khona isiqabo, zikuzombeleze bezikuvimbezele mahlangothi woke. 44Zizakumadlha phasi, wena nabantwana abangaphakathi kwemithangalakho. Azizokutjhiya ngitjho nalinye ilitje phezu kwelinye ngombana awuzange ulemuke isikhathi sokuza kwakaZimu kuwe!”
UJesu uya ethempelini
(Mt 21:12-17; Mk 11:15-19; Jwan 2:13-22)
45Yeke wangena ngethempelini wathoma ukuqotjha ebebathengisa. 46Wathi kibo: “Kutloliwe kwathiwa, ‘Ikumbami izakuba yikumba yokuthandaza’ kodwana nina niyenze irharha labahlanguli!”
47Ngamalanga uJesu bekafundisa ngethempelini. Abaphristi abakhulu nabafundisi bomthetho kanye nabarholi babantu balinga ukumbulala. 48Kodwana azange bafunyane indlela yokwenza lokho ngombana boke abantu babambelela emezwinakhe.
