UMarko 11 FHB Father's Heart Bible™

11 ¹Bakuba besondela eYerusalem, befika eBhetfage naseBhetani ngaseNtabeni yemiNquma, uYesu wathuma phambili ababini kubafundi bakhe,

²wathi kubo: “Yiyani kuloo mzana uphambi kwenu, uthi, nakungena nje kuwo, nifumane inkonyana ebotshelelweyo ye-esile ekungazanga kukhwelwe mntu kuyo. Yikhululeni, niyizise apha.

³Ukuba ubani uthe wabuza kuni, esithi, ‘Yini na ukuba niyenze le nto?’ nothi: ‘INkosi iyayifuna, iya kuyibuyisela apha kwaoko.’”

⁴Bahamba ke, bafumana inkonyana ibotshelelwe emnyango phandle esitratweni, bayikhulula. ⁵Abanye kwabemi apho babuza kubo besithi: “Nenza ntoni na, nikhulula loo nkonyana?” ⁶Baphendula njengoko wayebaxelele uYesu, bababeka ke abantu. ⁷Bayizisa inkonyana kuYesu, baphosa iingubo zabo phezu kwayo, wahlala yena phezu kwayo. ⁸Baninzi abandlala iingubo zabo endleleni; abanye bandlala amasebe amagqabi awayewagawule emasimini. ⁹Abo bahamba phambili nabo babelandela babedanduluka besithi: “Hosana! Makabongwe lowo uzayo egameni likaBawo wethu! ¹⁰Mabubongwe ubukumkani obuzayo bukabawo wethu uDavide! Hosana enyangweni!”

¹¹UYesu wangena eYerusalem nasetempileni, wayigqala yonke into; waza, ekubeni selikade ixesha, waphuma waya eBhetani neShumi elinaMbini.

UYesu Uqalekisa Umkhiwane

¹²Ngengomso, bakuba bemka eBhetani, uYesu walamba. ¹³Wabona mgama umkhiwane unamagqabi, waya kuwo ukuze abone ukuba kukho nto na kuwo. Akufika kuwo, akafumana nto ngaphandle kwamagqabi, kuba belingexesha lomkhiwane.

¹⁴Waza wathi kuwo: “Makungabikho namnye odla isiqhamo kuwe naphakade.” Bamva ke abafundi bakhe oku.

UYesu Uhlambulula Indlu kaBawo Wakhe

¹⁵Bafika eYerusalem, waza uYesu wangena etempileni, waqala ukubakhupha ababethengisa nababethenga apho. Wazibhukuqa iitafile zabananisi bemali, nezihlalo zabo babethengisa amahobe, ¹⁶akavuma ukuba kubekho bani othwala impahla ecanda etempileni.

¹⁷Wabafundisa ke, esithi: “Akubhaliwe na, kwathiwa: ‘Indlu yam iya kubizwa ngokuba yindlu yomthandazo kuzo zonke iintlanga’? Ke nina niyenze umngxuma wezihange.”

¹⁸Beva oku ababingeleli abakhulu nababhali, bafuna indlela yokumtshabalalisa; kuba bebemoyika, ngokuba sonke isihlwele samangaliswa kukufundisa kwakhe.

¹⁹Ngokuhlwa baphuma emzini.

²⁰Kusasa, bakudlula, babona umkhiwane ome kwasezingcanjini. ²¹Wakhumbula uPetros, wathi kuye: “Rabhi, khangela! Umkhiwane owawuqalekisile womile.”

²²Waphendula uYesu wathi kubo: “Yibani nokholo kuBawo wethu. ²³Inene ndithi kuni, osukuba ethi kule ntaba, ‘Phakanyiswa, uphoswe elwandle,’ engathandabuzi entliziyweni yakhe, kodwa ekholwa ukuba oko atshoyo kuya kwenzeka, kuya kwenziwa kuye oko. ²⁴Ngako oko ndithi kuni: nantoni na eniyithandazayo neniyicelayo, kholwani ukuba niyifumene — iya kuba yeyenu. ²⁵Xa nimi nithandaza, xolelani nantoni na eninayo nxamnye nabani, ukuze noYihlo osezulwini anixolele nani iziphoso zenu.” ^a a v25 Imibhalo-ngqangi yakudala ayinaso isibhalo sama-26 apha; iikopi zamva zongeza oku: “Kodwa ukuba anixoleli, noYihlo osezulwini akayi kunixolela iziphoso zenu.”

Ngegunya Likabani?

²⁷Babuyela eYerusalem. UYesu akubon’ ehambahamba etempileni, kweza kuye ababingeleli abakhulu, nababhali, namadoda amakhulu, ²⁸babuza besithi: “Uyenza ngegunya lini le nto? Okanye ngubani owakunikayo eli gunya lokuyenza?”

²⁹UYesu wathi kubo: “Ndiza kubuza kuni into enye. Phendulani kum, ndiza kunixelela ukuba ndizenza ngegunya lini ezi zinto. ³⁰Ubhaptizo lukaYohane — beluvela emazulwini, okanye beluvela ebantwini? Phendulani kum.”

³¹Baxubusha oku phakathi kwabo: “Ukuba sithi, ‘Beluvela emazulwini,’ uya kuthi, ‘Yini na ngoko ningakholwanga nguye?’ ³²Kodwa ukuba sithi, ‘Beluvela ebantwini’” — bebesoyika isihlwele, ngokuba bonke babembalela uYohane ngokuba ungumprofeti wenyaniso.

³³Baphendula uYesu bathi: “Asazi.” Wathi uYesu: “Nam andiyi kunixelela ukuba ndizenza ngegunya lini ezi zinto.”
