Chapter 10
1 Waza wababizela kuye abafundi bakhe abalishumi elinababini, wabanika igunya koomoya abangcolileyo, ukuze babakhuphe, nelokuphilisa izifo nezikhuhlane zonke.
2 Amagama ke abapostile abo balishumi elinababini ngawo la: owokuqala, uSimon ekuthiwa nguPetros, noAndreya umzalwana wakhe; uYakobi kaZebhedi, noYohane umzalwana wakhe; uFilipu noBhartolomeyu;
3 uTomas noMateyu, umbuthi werhafu; uYakobi ka-Alifeyu, noLebheyu, ogama limbi linguTadeyu;
4 uSimon umKanan noYuda Sikariyoti, lowo wamngcatshayo.
5 Abo bashumi linababini wabathuma uYesu, akuba ebayalile, wathi, Ze ningasingi endleleni yeentlanga, ningangeni nasemzini wamaSamariya;
6 yiyani ke kanye kwizimvu ezilahlekileyo zendlu kaSirayeli.
7 Ekuhambeni kwenu ke vakalisani, nisithi, Ubukumkani bamazulu busondele.
8 Philisani imilwelwe, hlambululani abaneqhenqa, vusani abafileyo, khuphani iidemon; namkele ngesisa, yiphani ngesisa.
9 Ningaziqwebeli golide nasilivere nalubhedu emibhinqweni yenu;
10 nangxowa yandlela, nangubo zangaphantsi ngambini, nambadada, namsimelelo; kuba umsebenzi ufanelwe kukudla kwakhe.
11 Emzini ke enithe nangena kuwo, nokuba kusemzaneni, ize nibuzise ukuba ngubani na kuwo ofanelekileyo; nihlale ke khona apho nide nimke.
12 Ekungeneni kwenu ke endlwini, ize niyibulise.
13 Ukuba ke ifanelekile indlu leyo, malube phezu kwayo uxolo lwenu; ukuba ayifanelekile, uxolo lwenu malubuyele kwakuni.
14 Nothe akawamkela, akaweva amazwi enu, nakuphuma kuloo ndlu nakuloo mzi, vuthululani uthuli lweenyawo zenu.
15 Inene ndithi kuni, Koba nokunyamezeleka okomhlaba waseSodom nowaseGomora ngomhla womgwebo, kunokwaloo mzi.
16 Yabonani, mna ndinithuma njengezimvu phakathi kweengcuka; ngoko yibani nobulumko njengeenyoka, nibe njengamahobe ukungabi nabuqhinga.
17 Balumkeleni ke abantu; kuba baya kuninikela ezintlanganisweni zamatyala, banityakatye ezindlwini zabo zesikhungu;
18 naye ke niya kusiwa phambi kwabalawuli nookumkani ngenxa yam, ze kube bubungqina kubo, nakuzo iintlanga.
19 Xa sukuba ke beninikela, ize ningaxhaleli ukuba nothetha ngakuphi na, nokuba nothetha ntoni na; kuba niya kunikwa ngelo lixa oko nothetha khona.
20 Kuba asinini abathethayo, nguMoya kaYihlo othethayo ngaphakathi kwenu.
21 Ke kaloku umzalwana uya kunikela umzalwana ekufeni, aze uyise anikele umntwana; bathi nabantwana basuke phezu kwabazali bababulalisise;
22 niya kuthiywa ngabantu bonke ngenxa yegama lam; ke onyamezelayo kwada kwaba kwasekupheleni, uya kusindiswa yena.
23 Xa sukuba ke benitshutshisa kuloo mzi, sabelani kuwumbi; kuba inene ndithi kuni, Aniyi kukha niyigqibe imizi yakwaSirayeli, engekafiki uNyana woMntu.
24 Akukho mfundi mkhulu kunomfundisi wakhe, akukho mkhonzi mkhulu kunenkosi yakhe.
25 Kumanele umfundi ukuba abe njengomfundisi wakhe, nomkhonzi ukuba abe njengenkosi yakhe. Ukuba umninindlu bambize ngoBhelezebhule, akukhona bobabiza ngaye yini na abo bendlu yakhe?
26 Musani ukuboyika ngoko; kuba akukho nto igutyungelweyo ingayi kutyhilwa, nefihlakeleyo ingayi kwaziwa.
27 Oko ndikuthetha kuni emnyameni, kuxeleni emhlotsheni; noko nikuvayo endlebeni, kumemezeni phezu kwezindlu.
28 Ningaboyiki abo babulala umzimba, kodwa bengenako ukuwubulala wona umphefumlo; yoyikani ke kanye lowo unako ukutshabalalisa umphefumlo kwanomzimba esihogweni somlilo.
29 Abathengiswa ngepeni na oongqatyana ababini? Kanti akuyi kuwa namnye kubo emhlabeni ngaphandle koYihlo.
30 Nina ke, kwaneenwele ezi zentloko yenu zibaliwe zonke.
31 Musani ukoyika ngoko; nibagqithile oongqatyana abaninzi nina.
32 Wonke umntu ngoko oya kundivuma phambi kwabantu, ndiya kumvuma nam phambi koBawo osemazulwini.
33 Osukuba ke eya kundikhanyela phambi kwabantu, ndiya kumkhanyela nam phambi koBawo osemazulwini.
34 Ningabi ndize kungenisa uxolo emhlabeni; andize kungenisa luxolo, ndize kungenisa ikrele.
35 Kuba ndize kubambanisa umntu noyise, intombi nonina, umolokazana noninazala.
36 Zaye iintshaba zomntu ziya kuba ngabendlu yakhe.
37 Lowo uthanda uyise nokuba ngunina kunam, akandifanele mna; nalowo uthanda unyana wakhe nokuba yintombi yakhe kunam, akandifanele mna.
38 Nongawuthabathiyo umnqamlezo wakhe, alandele emva kwam, akandifanele mna.
39 Lowo uwufumeneyo umphefumlo wakhe, wolahlekwa nguwo; nalowo uwulahlileyo umphefumlo wakhe ngenxa yam, uya kuwufumana.
40 Lowo wamkela nina, wamkela mna; nalowo wamkela mna, wamkela owandithumayo.
41 Lowo wamkela umprofeti egameni lomprofeti, uya kwamkela umvuzo womprofeti; nalowo wamkela ilungisa egameni lelungisa, uya kwamkela umvuzo welungisa.
42 Nothe waseza noko amnye waba bangabona bancinane indebe yodwa yamanzi abandayo egameni lomfundi, inene ndithi kuni, akayi kukha alahlekelwe ngumvuzo wakhe.
