Umzekeliso weentombi ezilishumi
1Ngelo xesha ubukumkani bamazulu buya kufanekiswa neentombi ezilishumi, ezazithabathayo izibane zazo, zaphuma zaya kumkhawulela umyeni. 2Ezintlanu ke kuzo zaye ziziingqondi, ezintlanu ziziziyatha. 3Ezo ziziziyatha zaphatha izibane zazo, azaphatha oli nazo; 4kodwa eziziingqondi zaphatha ioli ezityeni zazo, kwanezibane zazo. 5Ke kaloku, akubon' ukuba ulibele umyeni, zozela zonke zalala.
6Phakathi kobusuku ke kwabakho umemezo oluthi, Nanko umyeni esiza; phumani niye kumkhawulela. 7Zaza zavuka zonke ezo ntombi, zalungisa izibane zazo. 8Zathi ke eziziziyatha kweziziingqondi, Sipheni kwioli yenu leyo, ngokuba izibane zethu zicima. 9Zaphendula ke eziziingqondi, zathi, Hayi, hleze inganeli kuthi nakuni; yiyani kanye kwabathengisayo, nizithengele.
10Kuthe ke, zisaya kuthenga, wafika umyeni; zaza ezo bezisezilungile zangena naye emsithweni, lwavalwa ke ucango. 11Zithi ke kamva zifike nezinye iintombi ezo, zisithi, Nkosi, nkosi, sivulele. 12Yaphendula ke yona yathi, Inene ndithi kuni, andinazi nina.
13Phaphani ngoko, ngokuba ningayazi imini kwanalo ilixa.
Umzekeliso weetalente
(ULuka 19:11-27)
14Kuba kunjengomntu owathi, eza kuhambela kwelinye, wabiza abakhe abakhonzi, wayinikela kubo impahla yakhe. 15Wathi omnye wamnika iitalente• zantlanu, omnye zambini, nomnye yaba nye, walowo wanikwa ngokwawakhe amandla; wahambela kwelinye kwaoko. 16Lowo ke wamkela iitalente ezintlanu, waya wasebenza ngazo, wenza esinye isihlanu seetalente. 17Kwangokunjalo nalowo wamkela ezimbini, naye wazuza esinye isibini. 18Ke naye lowo wamkela yanye, waya wemba emhlabeni, wayifihla imali yenkosi yakhe.
19Ithi ke emveni kwexesha elikhulu, ifike inkosi yabo bakhonzi, ibalelane nabo. 20Weza lowo wamkela iitalente ezintlanu, wazisa esinye isihlanu seetalente, esithi, Nkosi, wandinika iitalente zantlanu; khangela, ndizuze esinye isihlanu seetalente phezu kwazo. 21Yathi ke kuye inkosi yakhe, Hee ke, mkhonzi ulungileyo, uthembekileyo! Ubuthembekile kwiinto ezimbalwa; ndiya kukumisa phezu kweento ezininzi; ngena eluvuyweni lwenkosi yakho.
22Weza ke nalowo wamkela iitalente ezimbini, wathi, Nkosi, wandinika iitalente zambini; khangela, ndizuze esinye isibini seetalente phezu kwazo. 23Yathi kuye inkosi yakhe, Hee ke, mkhonzi ulungileyo, uthembekileyo! Ubuthembekile kwiinto ezimbalwa; ndiya kukumisa phezu kweento ezininzi; ngena eluvuyweni lwenkosi yakho.
24Weza ke nalowo wamkela italente yanye, wathi, Nkosi, bendikwazi wena ukuba ungumntu olukhuni, uvuna apho ubungahlwayelanga khona, ubùthe apho ungelelanga khona; 25ndasuka ndoyika, ndaya ndayiselela italente yakho ngomhlaba; nanku unako okwakho.
26Yaphendula ke inkosi yakhe yathi kuye, Mkhonzindini ukhohlakeleyo, ulivila, ubusazi nje ukuba ndivuna apho ndingahlwayelanga khona, ndibùthe apho ndingelelanga khona, 27ubumelwe kukuthi ngoko ube ubuyibeke imali yam kubananisi, ndaza ndakufika mna, ndabuya ndakuzuza okwam kunenzala. 28Mhlutheni ngoko italente leyo, niyinike lowo uneetalente ezilishumi. 29Kuba wonke umntu onako uya kunikwa, abe nako ngokugqithiseleyo; ke ongenako, uya kuhluthwa kwanoko anako. 30Naye umkhonzi ongancedi lutho, mkhupheleni ebumnyameni obungaphandle; khona apho kuya kubakho ukulila nokutshixiza kwamazinyo.
Imini yomgwebo
31Xa ke athe wafika uNyana woMntu esebuqaqawulini bakhe, enazo zonke izithunywa ezingcwele, ngelo xa uya kuhlala phezu kwetrone yobuqaqawuli bakhe; 32zihlanganiswe phambi kwakhe zonke iintlanga, abahlule abanye kwabanye, njengokuba umalusi ezahlula izimvu ezibhokhweni; 33athi zona izimvu azimise ngasekunene kwakhe, athi kodwa zona iibhokhwe azimise ngasekhohlo.
34Úya kuthi ke ukumkani kwabangasekunene kwakhe, Yizani, nina nisikelelweyo nguBawo, nibudle ilifa ubukumkani obalungiselwa nina kwasekusekweni kwehlabathi; 35kuba ndalamba, nandipha ukudla; ndanxanwa, nandiseza; ndandingowasemzini, nandingenisa endlwini; 36ndandizé, nandambesa; ndandisifa, nandivelela; ndandisentolongweni, neza kum. 37Oza amphendule ke amalungisa, esithi, Nkosi, sákubona nini na ulambile, sakonga; unxaniwe, sakuseza? 38Sákubona nini na ke ungowasemzini, sakungenisa endlwini, uzé, sakwambesa? 39Sákubona nini na ke usifa, okanye usentolongweni, seza kuwe? 40Aze aphendule ukumkani athi kuwo, Inene ndithi kuni, Ekubeni nenjenjalo nakumnye waba bazalwana bam bangabona bancinane, nenjenjalo nakum.
41Úya kuthi nakwabangasekhohlo, Mkani kum, nina baqalekiswa, niye emlilweni ongunaphakade, owalungiselwa uMtyholi nezithunywa zakhe. 42Kuba ndalamba, anandipha kudla; ndanxanwa, anandiseza; ndandingowasemzini, anandingenisa ndlwini; 43ndandizé, anandambesa; ndandisifa, ndandisentolongweni, anandivelela. 44Boza ke bamphendule nabo, besithi, Nkosi, sákubona nini na ulambile, okanye unxaniwe, okanye ungowasemzini, okanye uzé, okanye usifa, okanye usentolongweni, asakulungiselela? 45Aze abaphendule, esithi, Inene ndithi kuni, Ekubeni ningenjanga njalo nakumnye waba bangabona bancinane, anenjanga njalo nakum.
46Baya kumka aba baye elubethweni olungunaphakade; ke wona amalungisa aya kuya ebomini obungunaphakade.
