ULuka 21 FHB Father's Heart Bible™

21 ¹Ewaphakamisile amehlo akhe, uYesu wababona izityebi bezifaka izipho zabo ebuncwaneni betempile. ²Wambona nomhlolokazi olihlwempu efaka iingqekembe ezimbini ezincinane zobhedu.

³Wathi: “Inene ndithi kuni, lo mhlolokazi ulihlwempu ufake ngaphezu kwabo bonke abanye. ⁴Kuba bonke aba banika izipho eziphuma ekutyebeni kwabo, kodwa yena unikele kokwakhe ukuhlwempuzeka konke abephila ngako.”

Itempile Iya Kudilika

⁵Ngexa abanye bethetha ngetempile, imiselwe ngamatye amahle nangezipho ezingcwaliselwe kuBawo wethu, wathi:

⁶“Ngokubhekisele kwezi zinto niziqwalaselayo, kuza kufika imihla ekungayi kusala ngayo litye phezu kwelinye; onke aya kuphoselwa phantsi.”

⁷Babuza bathi: “Mfundisi, zokwenzeka nini na ke ezi zinto, yaye nguwuphi na umqondiso oya kubonisa ukuba ezi zinto seziza kwenzeka?”

⁸Wathi: “Lumkani, ningalukuhlwa. Baya kuza abaninzi egameni lam, besithi, ‘Ndim yena,’ besithi, ‘Lisondele ixesha.’ Ningabalandeli. ⁹Xa nisiva ngeemfazwe nangeemvukelo, musani ukuphakuzela. Ezi zinto zimelwe kukuba zenzeke kuqala, kodwa isiphelo asiyi kulandela ngokukhawuleza.”

¹⁰Waza wathi kubo: “Uhlanga luya kusukela uhlanga, nobukumkani busukele ubukumkani. ¹¹Kuya kubakho iinyikima ezinkulu, neendlala neentsholongwane ngeendawo ngeendawo, kubekho izothuso nemiqondiso emikhulu ephuma ezulwini. ¹²Kodwa ngaphambi kwazo zonke ezi zinto, baya kunibamba banitshutshise, beninikela ezindlwini zesikhungu nasezintolongweni, benisa phambi kookumkani nabalawuli ngenxa yegama lam. ¹³Oku kuya kuba lithuba lenu lokunikela ubungqina. ¹⁴Ngoko zimiseleni ezintliziyweni zenu ukuba ningalungiseli ukuzithethelela ngaphambili, ¹⁵kuba mna ndiya kuninika amazwi nobulumko angayi kuba nako ukubuchasa nokubuphikisa namnye utshaba lwenu. ¹⁶Niya kungcatshwa nokungcatshwa ngabazali nangabazalwana nangezalamane nangabahlobo, baze babulale abanye kuni. ¹⁷Niya kuthiywa ngabantu bonke ngenxa yegama lam. ¹⁸Kodwa akuyi kutshabalala nalunye unwele lwentloko yenu. ¹⁹Ngonyamezelo lwenu niya kuzizuza ubomi benu.”

²⁰“Xa nithe nabona iYerusalem irhawulwe yimikhosi, yazini ke ngoko ukuba kusondele ukuba senkangala kwayo. ²¹Mabandule ke abakwelakwaYuda basabele ezintabeni, abakuloo mzi baphume, nabo basezindle bangangeni kuwo, ²²kuba le yimihla yempindezelo, ukuze kuzaliseke konke okubhaliweyo. ²³Yeha, abafazi abamithiyo nabanyisayo ngaloo mihla! Kuba kuya kubakho imbandezelo enkulu kweli lizwe, nengqumbo kwaba bantu. ²⁴Baya kuwa ngohlangothi lwekrele, bathinjelwe kuzo zonke iintlanga. IYerusalem iya kunyathelwa ziintlanga, ade azaliseke amaxesha eentlanga.”

²⁵“Kuya kubakho imiqondiso elangeni, nasenyangeni, nasezinkwenkwezini, nasehlabathini, iintlanga zibandezeleka, zidubaduba kukugquma nokudlokova kolwandle. ²⁶Abantu betyhafa kukoyika, besoyika oko kuza ehlabathini, kuba amandla amazulu aya kushukunyiswa. ²⁷Baya kwandula ukubona uNyana woLuntu esiza esemqulwini welifu, enamandla nobuqaqawuli obukhulu. ²⁸Xa zithe zaqala ukwenzeka ezi zinto, lulamani niziphakamise iintloko zenu, kuba ukukhululwa kwenu sekusondele.”

²⁹Wandula ukubalisela umzekeliso, wathi: “Khangelani kumkhiwane nakuyo yonke imithi. ³⁰Xa ithe yaphuma amagqabi, niyazibonela nina niqonde ukuba ihlobo selisondele. ³¹Ngokunjalo nani, xa nithe nabona ezi zinto zisenzeka, yazini ukuba ubukumkani bukaBawo wethu busondele. ³²Inene ndithi kuni, esi sizukulwana asiyi kudlula, zide zenzeke zonke ezi zinto. ³³Izulu nehlabathi liya kudlula, kodwa amazwi am akasayi kudlula naphakade.”

³⁴“Zigcineni, hleze iintliziyo zenu zisindwe yimilunyulunyu, nokunxila, neenkxalabo zobu bomi, ize loo mini inifikele ngesiquphe, njengomgibe. ³⁵Kuba iya kubafikela bonke abo bahleli phezu kobuso behlabathi liphela. ³⁶Lindani ngamaxesha onke, nithandaza ukuze nibe namandla okuzisabela zonke ezi zinto ziza kwenzeka, nokuma phambi koNyana woLuntu.”

³⁷Emini wayefundisa etempileni; ebusuku ephuma, ehlala eNtabeni yemiNquma. ³⁸Bonke abantu babesiza kuye kwakusa etempileni ukuze bamphulaphule.
