UMarko

Isahluko 12

Waqala ukuthi kubo ngemizekeliso, Umntu watyala isidiliya, wasibiyela ngothango, wemba isixovulelo seediliya, wakha inyango, waqeshisa ngaso kubalimi, wahambela kwelinye.
2 Wathi ngelona xesha, wathuma umkhonzi kubalimi abo, ukuba amkele kubalimi esiqhameni sesidiliya eso.
3 Basuka bona bambamba, bamtyabula, bamndulula elambatha.
4 Wabuya wathuma kubo omnye umkhonzi; lowo bamgibisela ngamatye, bamngxwelerha entloko, bamndulula bemhlazisile.
5 Wabuya wathuma omnye; lowo bambulala. Wathuma nabanye babaninzi, inxenye beyityabula, inxenye beyibulala.
6 Uthe ngoko, esenaye unyana emnye, intanda yakhe, wamthuma naye kubo ukugqibela, esithi, Baya kumhlonela yena unyana wam.
7 Ke bona abo balimi bathi phakathi kwabo, Yindlalifa lo; yizani simbulale, ilifa libe lelethu.
8 Bamthabatha ke, bambulala, bamphosa ngaphandle kwesidiliya.
9 Uya kwenza ntoni na ke ngoko umninisidiliya? Wofika abatshabalalise abo balimi, asinikele kubambi isidiliya eso.
10 Anisilesanga na esi sibhalo sithi, Ilitye abalicekisayo abakhi, Lelona laba yintloko yembombo;
11 Kwavela eNkosini oku, Kungummangaliso emehlweni ethu?
12 Baya befuna ukumbamba, basuka boyika izihlwele, kuba baqonda ukuba uwuthethe ngabo lo mzekeliso. Bamshiya bemka.
13 Bathi bathumela kuye abathile bakubaFarisi bakumaHerode, ukuze bambambise ngokuthetha.
14 Befikile ke bona, bathi kuye, Mfundisi, siyazi ukuba uyinene, kanjalo akukhathali nangubani; kuba akukhethi buso bamntu, indlela kaThixo uyifundisa ngenene. Kuvumelekile na ukumnika irhafu uKesare, akuvumelekile, kusini na? Sinikele, singanikeli, kusini na?
15 Ke kaloku yena, ekwazi ukuhanahanisa kwabo, wathi kubo, Nindilingelani na? Ndiziseleni idenariyo, ndiyibone.
16 Bayizisa ke. Athi kubo, Ngokabani na lo mfanekiso nombhalo?
17 Bathi ke kuye, NgokaKesare. Waphendula uYesu wathi kubo, Nikelani izinto zikaKesare kuKesare, nezinto zikaThixo kuThixo. Bamangaliswa nguye.
18 Kweza kuye nabaSadusi, bona abo bathi akukho luvuko; babuza kuye besithi,
19 Mfundisi, uMoses wasibhalela, wathi, Ukuba umzalwana kathile uthe wafa, washiya umfazi, akashiya bantwana, makathi umzalwana wakhe amzeke umfazi wakhe, amvelisele imbewu umzalwana wakhe.
20 Ke kaloku bekukho abazalwana abasixhenxe. Wathi owokuqala wazeka umfazi; waza akufa akashiya mbewu.
21 Uthe owesibini wamzeka, wafa, akashiya mbewu. Wenjenjalo nowesithathu.
22 Bamzeka ke bosixhenxe; abashiya mbewu. Ekugqibeleni kwabo bonke, wafa naye umfazi.
23 Ngoko eluvukweni, uya kuba ngumfazi wawuphi na kubo? kuba babenaye bosixhenxe engumfazi.
24 Waphendula uYesu wathi kubo, Anilahleki na, ngenxa yale ndawo yokuba ningazazi izibhalo kwanamandla kaThixo?
25 Kuba, xa bathe babuya bavuka kwabafileyo, abazeki, abendiswa; banjengazo izithunywa ezisemazulwini.
26 Ngokusingisele kwabafileyo ke, ukuba bayavuka, anilesanga na encwadini kaMoses, endaweni ethetha ngetyholo, okokuba uThixo wathetha kuye esithi, Mna ndinguThixo ka-Abraham, uThixo kaIsake, uThixo kaYakobi?
27 AkaThixo wabafileyo, unguThixo wabaphilileyo. Nina ke ngoko niyalahleka kakhulu.
28 Kwafika omnye wakubabhali; wabeva bebuzana; waqonda ukuba ubaphendule kakuhle. Wambuza esithi, Owona mthetho uphambili kuyo yonke nguwuphi na?
29 UYesu wamphendula ke esithi, Owona ungaphambili kuyo yonke imithetho ngulo: Yiva, Sirayeli, iNkosi uThixo wethu yiNkosi inye;
30 uze uyithande ke iNkosi uThixo wakho ngentliziyo yakho iphela, na ngomphefumlo wakho uphela, nangengqondo yakho iphela, nangamandla akho ephela. Nguwo lo ongaphambili umthetho.
31 Nowesibini ufana nawo; nangu: Uze umthande ummelwane wakho njengoko uzithanda ngako. Akukho mthetho wumbi mkhulu kunale.
32 Wathi umbhali kuye, Ngxatsho ke, Mfundisi, uthethe inyaniso; ngokuba mnye uThixo, akukho wumbi ngaphandle kwakhe;
33 nokuthi umthande yena ngentliziyo iphela, nangengqiqo iphela, nangomphefumlo uphela, nangamandla ephela, nokuthi umthande ummelwane wakho njengoko uzithanda ngako, kungaphezu kwawo onke amadini atshiswayo kuphele, nemibingelelo.
34 UYesu embonile ukuba uphendule ngengqiqo, wathi kuye, Akukude wena ebukumkanini bukaThixo. Akwaba sabakho mntu ubenobuganga bakumbuza nto.
35 Waphendula uYesu, wathi, efundisa etempileni, Batsho ngani na ababhali ukuthi, UKristu ungunyana kaDavide?
36 Kuba uDavide ngokwakhe wathi ngoMoya oyiNgcwele, Yathi iNkosi eNkosini yam, Hlala ngasekunene kwam, Ndide iintshaba zakho ndizenze isihlalo seenyawo zakho.
37 UDavide ngoko ngokwakhe uthi, UyiNkosi. Kuvela phi na ke ukuba ngunyana wakhe? Lwaye ke uninzi lwabantu lumva kamnandi.
38 Wayesithi kubo, ekufundiseni kwakhe, Balumkeleni ababhali, abathanda ukuhamba ngeengubo ezinde, nemibuliso ezindaweni zembutho,
39 nezihlalo zobukhulu ezindlwini zesikhungu, nezilili zobukhulu ezidlweni;
40 abazidla bazigqibe izindlu zabahlolokazi, baze benyhwalaza bathandaze uzungu. Aba baya kwamkela ugwebo olugqithisileyo.
41 Waye uYesu ehleli malungana nomkhumbi wokulondoloza imali, ekhangela ukuba sithini na isihlwele ukuphosa imali yobhedu emkhumbini wokulondoloza imali; zaye izityebi ezininzi ziphosa kakhulu.
42 Kwafika mhlolokazi uthile ulihlwempu, waphosa iimalanana zambini eziyikodrante.
43 Ebabizele kuye abafundi bakhe, uthi kubo, Inene ndithi kuni, Lo mhlolokazi ulihlwempu uphose ngaphezu kwabo bonke abaphosileyo emkhumbini wokulondoloza imali;
44 kuba bonke abo baphose bethabatha kwikhupha labo; ke yena ekusweleni kwakhe uphose konke abenako, impilo yakhe iphela.
