Luka 19
1UJesu wangena wadabula iJeriko.
2Bheka, kwakukhona indoda igama layo linguZakewu, iyinhloko yabathelisi, inothile;
3Yayifuna ukumbona uJesu ukuthi ungubani; wahluleka ngenxa yexuku, ngoba wayemude.
4Wasegijimela phambili, wakhwela esihlahleni somthombe ukuthi ambone, ngoba wayezadlula ngaleyondlela.
5Kwathi uJesu efika kuleyo ndawo, wabheka phezulu, wayibona, wathi kuyo: “Zakewu, shesha wehle; ngoba lamuhla ngimele ukuhlala endlini yakho.
6Waseshesha wehla, wamamukela ngokuthokoza.
7Sebekubonile bonke bakhonona, besithi: Ungene ukuvakatshela indoda eyisoni.
8UZakewu wema wathi eNkosini; Bheka, Nkosi, inxenye yempahla yami ngiyipha abampofu; futhi uma ngithathe utho kumuntu ngamanga, ngimbuyisela ngokuphindwe kane.
9UJesu wathi kuye: “Namuhla insindiso isifikile kule ndlu, lokhu naye eyindodana ka-Abrahama.
10Ngokuba iNdodana yomuntu ize ukufuna nokusindisa obekulahlekile.
11Kwathi bekuzwa lokho, wanezela, wakhuluma umfanekiso, ngokuba wayeseduze neJerusalema, nangokuba babethi umbuso kaNkulunkulu uzakuvela masinyane.
12Wathi-ke: “Umuntu othile wobukhosi waya ezweni elikude ukuyozithathela umbuso, abuye.
13Wabiza izinceku zakhe eziyishumi, wazinika omina abayishumi, wathi kuzo: ‘Hhwebani ngize ngibuye.
14Kepha izakhamuzi zakhe zazimzonda, zathuma amanxusa emva kwakhe, zithi: “Asithandi ukuba lo abuse phezu kwethu.
15Kwathi esebuyile esewamukele umbuso, wayala ukuba kubizelwe kuye lezo zinceku abezinike imali, ukuze azi ukuthi yilowo nalowo ube zuzile kangakanani ngokuhweba.
16Yafika eyokuqala, yathi: ‘Nkosi, umina wakho uzuze omina abayishumi.
17Yathi kuyo: “Kuhle, nceku enhle; ngokuba ubuthembekile kokuncane, yiba namandla phezu kwemizi eyishumi.
18Yafika neyesibili, yathi: ‘Nkosi, umina wakho uzuze omina abayisihlanu.
19Wasesithi kuye: Lawe yiba phezu kwemizi eyisihlanu.
20Kwasekusiza nenye, yathi: Nkosi, bheka, nangu umina wakho, ebengiwubeke eqhiyeni.
21Ngokuba bengikwesaba, lokhu ungumuntu olukhuni; uthatha ongakubekanga, uvune ongakuhlwanyelanga.
22Wathi kuyo: “Ngizakwahlulela ngokuphuma emlonyeni wakho, nceku embi. Ubuwazi ukuthi ngingumuntu olukhuni, othabatha engingakubekanga, avune engingakuhlwanyelanga;
23Pho, awufakanga ngani imali yami ebhange, ukuze ekufikeni kwami ngiyibize nenzalo na?
24Wathi kwababemi khona: “Mthatheleni umina, nimnike onawomina abayishumi.
25Bathi kuye: Nkosi, unomina abayishumi.
26Ngokuba ngithi kini: Yilowo nalowo onakho uyakuphiwa; lalowo ongelakho, lalokho alakho uzakwemukwa.
27Kodwa lezozitha zami ezazingathandanga ukuthi ngibuse phezu kwazo, ziletheni lapha, lizibulale phambi kwami.
28Eseshilo lokho wandulela, wenyukela eJerusalema.
29Kwasekusithi esesondele eBetfage leBethaniya entabeni ethiwa yiNtaba Yemihlwathi, wathuma ababili kubafundi bakhe.
30Esithi: Hambani liye emzaneni okhangelene lani; ekungeneni kwenu nizafica ithole lembongolo likhulekiwe, okungake kuhlale muntu kulo;
31Uma umuntu enibuza ethi: ‘Nilithukululelani na? nizakusho kuye ukuthi: ‘INkosi iyalidinga.’
32Basuka ababethunyiwe, bafumana kunjengokusho kwakhe kubo.
33Kuthe besalithukulula ithole, abaninilo bathi kubo: Nilithukululelani ithole?
34Bathi: “INkosi iyalidinga.
35Baliyisa kuJesu, babeka izingubo zabo phezu kwethole, bamkhwelisa uJesu.
36Esahamba, bendlala izingubo zabo endleleni.
37Esesondele ekwehleni kweNtaba Yeminqumo, isixuku sonke sabafundi saqala ukuthokoza nokudumisa uNkulunkulu ngezwi elikhulu ngayo yonke imisebenzi yamandla ababeyibonile;
38besithi: Kayibusiswe iNkosi ezayo ebizweni leNkosi: ukuthula ezulwini, lenkazimulo kweliphezulu.
39Abanye kubaFarisi exukwini bathi kuye: Mfundisi, khuza abafundi bakho.
40Wasephendula wathi kubo: Ngithi kini: Uba bengathula laba, amatshe azakhala masinyane.
41Esesondele wawubona umuzi, wawukhalela;
42esithi: Aluba ubusazi lawe ngalolusuku lwakho, izinto zokuthula kwakho! kepha manje zifihliwe emehlweni akho.
43Ngokuba izinsuku ziyakufikela, lapho izitha zakho ziyokubiyela ngomsele, zikuhaqe, zikuvimbezele nxazonke;
44Ziyakuwisa phansi wena nabantwana bakho phakathi kwakho; kabayikutshiya ilitshe phezu kwelinye; ngoba ubungasazi isikhathi sokuhanjelwa kwakho.
45Wangena ethempelini, waqala ukuxosha ababethengisa kulo nabathengayo;
46wathi kubo: Kulotshiwe ukuthi: Indlu yami yindlu yokukhuleka;
47Wayefundisa ethempelini imihla ngemihla. Kepha abapristi abakhulu nababhali nezikhulu zabantu bafuna ukumbulala;
48Kodwa babengatholi abangakwenza, ngoba ixuku lonke lalilalela ukumuzwa.
