UMarko 10 FHB Father's Heart Bible™

10 ¹Wemka apho waya kummandla welakwaYuda, nangaphesheya kweYordan. Zaphinda zaqukana kuye izihlwele, waza ngokwesiko lakhe wabuya wabafundisa kwakhona.

²Kweza abaFarisi abathile bemlinga, bebuza besithi: “Ngaba kuvumelekile na ukuba indoda imale umfazi wayo?”

³Waphendula wathi kubo: “Waniwisela ntoni na uMoses?”

⁴Bathi: “UMoses wavuma ukuba indoda imbhalele incwadi yokumala, ize imgxothe.”

⁵Wathi uYesu kubo: “Wanibhalela lo mthetho ngenxa yobulukhuni bentliziyo yenu. ⁶Kodwa ekuqalekeni kwendalo, uBawo wethu wabadala baba yindoda nenkazana. ⁷‘Ngenxa yoko indoda iya kushiya uyise nonina, inamathele kumkayo, ⁸baze bobabini babe yinyamanye.’ Ngoko ke abasengababini, bayinyamanye. ⁹Ngoko ke oko uBawo wethu akuhlanganisileyo, makungabikho mntu ukwahlulayo.”

¹⁰Babuyela endlwini, abafundi baphinda bambuza ngale nto.

¹¹Wathi kubo: “Othe wamala umfazi wakhe, wazeka omnye, uyakrexeza ngakuye, ¹²naye umfazi, ukuba uthe wayimala indoda yakhe, wendela kwenye, uyakrexeza.”

UBawo wamkela abantwana

¹³Abantu beza nabantwana kuye ukuze ababachukumise, kodwa abafundi babakhalimela.

¹⁴Wathi uYesu akubona oku, waqumba, wathi: “Bayekeni abantwana beze kum; musani ukubathintela, kuba ubukumkani bukaBawo wethu bobanjengaba. ¹⁵Inene ndithi kuni, othe akabamkela ubukumkani bukaBawo wethu njengomntwana, akasayi kungena kubo.”

¹⁶Wabathabatha ezingalweni zakhe, wabasikelela, ebabeka izandla phezu kwabo.

Indoda eyayinezinto ezininzi kodwa iswele into-nye

¹⁷Uthe ephuma, esendleleni, kweza umntu, wabalekela kuye, waguqa ngamadolo phambi kwakhe, wambuza wathi: “Mfundisi olungileyo, ndenze ntoni na ukuze ndidle ilifa lobomi obungenasiphelo?”

¹⁸Wathi uYesu: “Yini na ukuba uthi ndilungile? Akukho namnye olungileyo, nguBawo wethu yedwa. ¹⁹Uyayazi imithetho: ‘uze ungabulali, ungakrexezi, ungebi, ungangqini ubungqina obubuxoki; ungaqhathi; beka uyihlo nonyoko.’”

²⁰Wathi kuye: “Mfundisi, zonke ezi ndizigcinile kwasebuncinaneni bam.”

²¹UYesu wamjonga, wamthanda. Wathi: “Into-nye oyisweleyo: hamba, uthengise konke onako, ukunike amahlwempu—woba nobutyebi ezulwini—wandule uze undilandele.”

²²Wathi akuva eli lizwi bajika ubuso bakhe, wemka ebuhlungu, kuba wayenempahla eninzi.

²³UYesu wakhangela macala onke, wathi kubafundi bakhe: “Hayi ubunzima bokuba izityebi zingene ebukumkanini bukaBawo wethu!”

²⁴Bakhwankqiswa ngamazwi akhe abafundi. Wabuya wathi uYesu kubo: “Bantwana, hayi ubunzima bokuba umntu angene ebukumkanini bukaBawo wethu! ²⁵Kulula ngakumbi ukuba inkamela ingene ngentunja yenaliti kunokuba isityebi singene ebukumkanini bukaBawo wethu.”

²⁶Bakhwankqiswa ngakumbi, bathi omnye komnye: “Ngubani na ke onokusindiswa?”

²⁷UYesu wabakhangela, wathi: “Kubantu oku akunakwenzeka; kodwa kungenjalo kuBawo wethu, kuba zonke izinto zinokwenzeka kuBawo wethu.”

²⁸UPetros waqala ukuthi kuye: “Nanku, thina sishiye konke, sakulandela.”

²⁹Wathi uYesu: “Inene ndithi kuni, akukho bani ushiye indlu, nabazalwana, noodade, nonina, noyise, nabantwana, namasimi, ngenxa yam nangenxa yevangeli,

³⁰ongayi kwamkela ngokulikhulu ngoku, kweli xesha—izindlu, nabazalwana, noodade, noonina, nabantwana, namasimi, kunye neentshutshiso—nakwelizayo ixesha, ubomi obungenasiphelo. ³¹Kodwa abaninzi abangabokuqala baya kuba ngabokugqibela, nabokugqibela babe ngabokuqala.”

UYesu uxela ukufa kwakhe okwesithathu

³²Besendleleni enyuka isiya eYerusalem, uYesu wayehamba phambi kwabo. Bakhwankqiswa, baza aba babemlandela boyika. Wabuya wabathabatha bucala abalishumi elinababini, waqala ukubaxelela oko kuza kwenzeka kuye:

³³“Khangelani, siyenyuka siya eYerusalem. UNyana woLuntu uya kunikwa kubabingeleli abakhulu nababhali, abaya kumgwebela ukuba afe, baze bamnikele kweentlanga. ³⁴Baya kumgculela, bamtshicele, bamkatse, bambulale; emva kwemihla emithathu uya kuvuka.”

Ubukhulu ngokukhonza

³⁵Beza kuye uYakobi noYohane, oonyana bakaZebhedi, bathi: “Mfundisi, sifuna ukuba usenzele nantoni na esiya kucela.”

³⁶Wathi kubo: “Nifuna ukuba ndinenzele ntoni na?”

³⁷Bathi kuye: “Siyeke sihlale eluzukweni lwakho, omnye ngasekunene kwakho, omnye ngasekhohlo kwakho.”

³⁸Wathi uYesu kubo: “Anikwazi enikucelayo. Ningayisela na indebe endiyiselayo, okanye nibhaptizwe ngobhaptizo endibhaptizwa ngalo?”

³⁹Bathi: “Singakwazi.” Wathi uYesu kubo: “Indebe endiyiselayo niya kuyisela; nobhaptizo endibhaptizwa ngalo niya kubhaptizwa ngalo, ⁴⁰kodwa ukuhlala ngasekunene kwam nangasekhohlo asikokwam ukukunika—oko kokwabo bakulungiselelweyo.”

⁴¹Bakuva oku, abalishumi bacaphukela uYakobi noYohane.

⁴²Wababizela kuye uYesu, wathi: “Niyazi ukuba abo kuthiwa ngabalawuli beentlanga bayazigagamela, nabakhulu babo benza ngegunya phezu kwazo. ⁴³Kodwa akunjalo phakathi kwenu. Osukuba efuna ukuba mkhulu phakathi kwenu, makabe ngumkhonzi wenu, ⁴⁴nosukuba efuna ukuba ngowokuqala phakathi kwenu, makabe likhoboka labo bonke. ⁴⁵Kuba naye uNyana woLuntu akezanga ukuze akhonzwe, weza ukuze akhonze, nokunikela ngobomi bakhe bube yintlawulelo yabaninzi.”

UBhartimeyu Ubuyelwa Kukubona

⁴⁶Bafika eYeriko. Kuthe ke xa uYesu nabafundi bakhe bephuma, benenkitha enkulu, kwabe kuhleli imfama uBhartimeyu unyana kaTimeyu, ecela izipho ecaleni lendlela. ⁴⁷Wathi akuva ukuba nguYesu waseNazarete, waqala ukumemeza, esithi: “Yesu, Nyana kaDavide, ndenzele inceba!” ⁴⁸Abaninzi bamkhalimela ukuba athi tu, kodwa yena wamemeza ngakumbi, esithi: “Nyana kaDavide, ndenzele inceba!”

⁴⁹Wema uYesu, wathi: “Mbizeni.” Bayibiza ke imfama, besithi: “Yomelela! Vuka—uyakubiza.”

⁵⁰Wayilahla ingubo yakhe, wesuka ngokukhawuleza, weza kuYesu.

⁵¹Wathi uYesu kuye: “Ufuna ndikwenzele ntoni na?” Yathi imfama kuye: “Rabhoni, mandibuye ndibone.” ^a a v51 Igama elithi “Rabhoni” yindlela yentliziyo neyobuqu yokubiza uYesu—“mfundisi wam,” ethethwa ngokuthemba okukhulu.

⁵²Wathi uYesu kuye: “Hamba; ukholo lwakho lukuphilisile.” Kwaoko wabona kwakhona, waza wamlandela uYesu endleleni.
