Luka 15
1Kwase kusondela kuye bonke abathelisi nezoni ukumuzwa.
2AbaFarisi nababhali bakhonona, bathi: “Lo wamukela izoni, adle nazo.
3Wasebatshela lumfanekiso, esithi.
4Ngumuphi umuntu kini onezimvu eziyikhulu, kuthi uma elahlekelwa ngenye yazo, angazishiyi ezingamashumi ayisishiyagalolunye nesishiyagalolunye ehlane, alandele elahlekileyo, aze ayithole, na?
5Athi eseyitholile, ayibeke emahlombe akhe ethokoza.
6Esefikile ekhaya, abizele ndawonye abangani bakhe nomakhelwane, athi kubo: “Thokozani nami; ngoba ngiyitholile imvu yami ebilahlekile.
7Ngithi kini: Kanjalo kuyakuba khona ukuthokoza ezulwini ngesoni sisinye esiphendukayo, kunabalungileyo abangamashumi ayisishiyagalolunye nesishiyagalolunye abangadingi kuphenduka.
8Noma ngumuphi owesifazane onezinhlamvu zesiliva eziyishumi, kuthi uma elahlekelwa uhlamvu lunye, angalumeki isibani, ashanele indlu, adingisise, aze aluthole?
9Athi eseyitholile, abizele ndawonye abangane bakhe nomakhelwane, athi: ‘Thokozani nami; ngokuba ngilutholile ucezu ebengingilahlekele.
10Kanjalo, ngithi kini: Kukhona ukuthokoza phambi kwezingelosi zikaNkulunkulu ngesoni sisinye esiphendukayo.
11Wathi: “Umuntu othile wayenamadodana amabili;
12Encane yawo yathi kuyise: ‘Baba, nginike isabelo sempahla esiqondene nami.’ Futhi wabahlukanisela impahla yakhe.
13Kwathi emva kwezinsuku ezingeziningi indodana encane yayisibutha konke, yamuka, yaya ezweni elikude;
14Esechithe konke, kwaba khona indlala enkulu kulelo zwe; waqala ukuswela.
15Wasehamba wazihlanganisa nesakhamuzi salelo zwe; Wayithumela emadlelweni akhe ukuba yaluse izingulube.
16Wayesefisa ukugcwalisa isisu sakhe ngamakhoba adliwa yizingulube, kepha kwakungekho muntu owamnikayo.
17Kwathi lapho isanguluka yathi: ‘Bangaki abaqashwa bakababa abanesinkwa esanele, kanti mina ngifa indlala.
18Ngiyakusuka, ngiye kubaba, ngithi kuye: Baba, ngonile kulo izulu naphambi kwakho;
19Angisafanele ukuthiwa indodana yakho; ngenze ngibe njengomunye wabaqashwa bakho.
20Yasuka, yaya kuyise. Kuthe isekude, uyise wayibona, waba nesihe, wagijima, wawa entanyeni yakhe, wayanga.
21Indodana yathi kuye: ‘Baba, ngonile kulo izulu naphambi kwakho, angisafanele ukuthiwa indodana yakho.’
22Kodwa uyise wathi ezincekwini zakhe: Khuphani nikhiphe ingubo enhle kunazo zonke, niyembathise; wafaka indandatho esandleni sakhe, nezicathulo ezinyaweni zakhe;
23Nilethe ithole elikhuluphalisiwe, nilihlabe; futhi asidle, sijabule;
24Ngokuba le ndodana yami ibifile, isiyaphila futhi; ubelahlekile, usetholakele. Basebeqala ukujabula.
25Indodana yakhe enkulu yayisensimini; yathi isiza isondela endlini, yezwa ukuhlabelela nokusina.
26Yabiza enye yezinceku, yabuza ukuthi ziyini lezi zinto.
27Wathi kuye: “Umfowenu ufikile; uyihlo uhlabile ithole elikhuluphalisiwe, ngokuba umamukele ephilile.
28Wathukuthela, akavumanga ukungena; wayesephuma uyise, wamncenga.
29Wasephendula wathi kuyise: Khangela, leminyaka eminengi ngikukhonza, kangizange ngeqe umlayo wakho;
30Kodwa kuthe ifika le ndodana yakho, edle ukudla kwakho lezifebe, uyihlabele ithole elikhuluphalisiweyo.
31Wathi kuye: “Mntanami, wena uhlezi unami, nakho konke enginakho kungokwakho.
32Bekufanele ukuthi sijabule sithokoze, ngokuba umfowenu lo ubefile, wabuye waphila; yayilahlekile, yafunyanwa.
