Marku 12

1Waseqala ukukhuluma kubo ngemifanekiso. Umuntu othile watshala isivini, wasibiyela ngothango, wemba isikhamo sewayini, wakha umbhoshongo, wasiqashisa kubalimi, waya ezweni elikude.

2Ngesikhathi esifaneleyo wathumela inceku kubalimi, ukuze yamukele kubalimi esithelweni sesivini.

3Base bembamba, bamshaya, bammukisa elambatha.

4Wabuye wathuma kubo enye inceku; yona bayijikijela ngamatshe, bayilimaza ekhanda, bayimukisa ihlazekile.

5Wabuye wathuma enye; yena bambulala, nabanye abaningi; abanye batshaya, abanye bebulala.

6Ngakho-ke esesenendodana eyodwa ethandekayo wakhe, wayithuma kubo ekugcineni, ethi: ‘Bayakuyihlonipha indodana yami.’

7Kepha labo balimi bakhuluma bodwa, bathi: ‘Lo uyindlalifa; wozani siyibulale, ifa libe ngelethu.

8Basebemthatha, bambulala, bamphosela ngaphandle kwesivini.

9Uzakwenzani-ke umninisivini? uzakuza, ababhubhise abalimi, isivini asinike abanye.

10Aniwufundanga yini lo mbhalo; Itshe abalinqabayo abakhi laba yinhloko yegumbi;

11Lokhu kwenziwe yiNkosi, futhi kuyamangalisa emehlweni ethu?

12Base befuna ukumbamba, kepha besaba isixuku, ngokuba bazi ukuthi uwukhulume ngabo lo mfanekiso; bamshiya, bamuka.

13Bathumela kuye abanye babaFarisi nabakaHerode, ukuze bambambe ngamazwi akhe.

14Sebefikile bathi kuye: Mfundisi, siyazi ukuthi uqinisile, kawukhathali ngomuntu, ngoba kawubheki ubuso bomuntu, kodwa ufundisa indlela kaNkulunkulu ngeqiniso: Kuvunyelwe yini ukuthela. kuKesari, noma qha?

15Siphe, noma singaphi na? Kepha yena ekwazi ukuzenzisa kwabo wathi kubo: “Ningilingelani na? Ngiletheleni udenariyo, ngibone.

16Base beyiletha. Wathi kubo: Ngokabani lo mfanekiso nombhalo na? Basebesithi kuye: KaKesari.

17UJesu waphendula wathi kubo: “Nikani uKesari okukaKesari, noNkulunkulu okukaNkulunkulu. Bamangala ngaye.

18Khona kweza kuye abaSadusi, abathi akukho ukuvuka kwabafileyo; bambuza bathi.

19Mfundisi, uMose wasilobela ukuthi: “Uma kufa umfowabo womuntu, eshiya umkakhe engashiyi bantwana, umfowabo makamthathe umkakhe, amvusele umfowabo inzalo.

20Kwakukhona izelamani eziyisikhombisa; owokuqala wathatha umfazi, wafa akashiyanga nzalo.

21Nowesibili wamthatha, wafa, akashiyanga nzalo; nowesithathu ngokunjalo.

22Bamthatha abayisikhombisa, abashiyanga nzalo; ekugcineni kwabo bonke nowesifazane wafa.

23Ngakho ekuvukeni kwabafileyo, lapho bevuka, uyakuba ngumkabani kubo na? ngoba abayisikhombisa babenaye engumkabo.

24UJesu waphendula, wathi kubo: “Aniduki ngalokho, ngokuba ningayazi imibhalo namandla kaNkulunkulu na?

25Ngoba nxa bevuka kwabafileyo kabathathani, kabendiswa; kodwa banjengezingilosi ezisezulwini.

26Kepha maqondana nabafileyo ukuthi bayavuswa, anifundanga yini encwadini kaMose esihlahleni ukuthi uNkulunkulu wakhuluma kuye, wathi: “Mina nginguNkulunkulu ka-Abrahama, noNkulunkulu ka-Isaka, noNkulunkulu kaJakobe?

27Akasiye uNkulunkulu wabafileyo, kepha unguNkulunkulu wabaphilayo; ngalokho niyaduka kakhulu nina.

28Kwasekusiza omunye wababhali, ebezwile bebuzana, ebona ukuthiubaphendule kuhle, wambuza wathi: Nguwuphi umlayo wokuqala kuyo yonke?

29UJesu wamphendula wathi: “Owokuqala kuyo yonke imiyalo ngothi: Yizwa, Israyeli; INkosi uNkulunkulu wethu yiNkosi eyodwa:

30Woyithanda iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho ngayo yonke inhliziyo yakho, nangawo wonke umphefumulo wakho, nangayo yonke ingqondo yakho, nangawo onke amandla akho.

31Owesibili ofana nawo uthi: Wothanda umakhelwane wakho njengalokhu uzithanda wena. Awukho omunye umyalo omkhulu kunale.

32Umbhali wasesithi kuye: Kuhle, Mfundisi, ukhulume iqiniso, ngoba munye uNkulunkulu; futhi akakho omunye ngaphandle kwakhe.

33nokumthanda ngenhliziyo yonke, nangokuqonda konke, nangawo wonke umphefumulo, nangamandla onke, nokuthanda umakhelwane njengalokhu ezithanda yena kudlula yonke iminikelo yokushiswa nemihlatshelo.

34UJesu ebona ukuthi uphendule ngokuqonda, wathi kuye: “Awukude nombuso kaNkulunkulu. Akwabakho muntu emva kwalokho owaba nesibindi sokumbuza.

35UJesu efundisa ethempelini waphendula wathi: “Basho kanjani ababhali ukuthi uKristu uyiNdodana kaDavide na?

36Ngoba uDavida uqobo lwakhe ngoMoya oNgcwele wathi: INkosi yathi eNkosini yami: Hlala ngakwesokunene sami, ngize ngenze izitha zakho zibe yisenabelo senyawo zakho.

37Ngakho uDavide ngokwakhe umbiza ngokuthi iNkosi; Pho uyindodana yakhe? Futhi abantukazana bamuzwa ngokuthokoza.

38Wasesithi kubo ekufundiseni kwakhe: Xwayani ababhali, abathanda ukuhamba bembethe izembatho ezinde, lokubingelelwa ezigcawini;

39lezihlalo eziqakathekileyo emasinagogeni lezihlalo eziphambili emadilini.

40abadla izindlu zabafelokazi, nangokuzenzisa benza imithandazo emide; laba bayakwamukeliswa ukulahlwa okukhulu.

41UJesu wayesehlezi maqondana nesitsha somnikelo, wabona ukuthi isixuku siphonsa kanjani imali esitsheni somnikelo;

42Kwase kufika umfelokazi othile ompofu, waphonsa amafadingi amabili okuyidenariyo.

43Wabizela kuye abafundi bakhe, wathi kubo: “Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Lo mfelokazi ompofu ubeke okuningi kunabo bonke abaphonse emnikelweni womnikelo;

44Ngokuba bonke baphonse kokuchichima kwabo; kepha yena ekusweleni kwakhe ubeke konke abenakho, konke abeziphilisa ngakho.
