Ngekujabula lokunguko
3“Babusisiwe labamphofu emoyeni,
ngobe umbuso welizulu wabo.
4Babusisiwe labakhalako,
ngobe bayawudvudvutwa.
5Babusisiwe labamnene,
ngobe bayawudla lifa lemhlaba.
6Babusisiwe labalambele bomele kulunga,
ngobe bayakwesutsiswa.
7Babusisiwe labanesihawu,
ngobe bayawuhawukelwa.
8Babusisiwe labahlantekile enhlitiyweni,
ngobe bayawumbona Nkulunkulu.
9Babusisiwe labalamulako,
ngobe bayawutsiwa bantfwana baNkulunkulu.
10Babusisiwe labatingelwa bahlushwe
ngenca yekulunga,
ngobe umbuso welizulu wabo.
11“Nibusisiwe nabanetfuka, banitingele, banihluphe, bakhulume konkhe lokubi ngani, banicalele emanga ngami. 12Jabulani nitfokote, ngobe umvuzo wenu mkhulu ezulwini; ngobe nebaphrofethi labanendvulela babatingela babahlupha kanjalo.”
Ngeluswayi nekukhanya
13“Nine niluswayi lwelive, kodvwa nangabe luswayi selulahlekelwe bunandzi balo, pho, lobunandzi balo bungabuyiselwa njani? Alusenamsebenti walutfo, kuphela nje kutsi lulahlwe ngephandle, lunyatselwe ngetinyawo.
14“Nine nikukhanya kwelive. Lidolobha lelakhiwe entsabeni lephakeme lingeke lisitseke. 15Kute umuntfu lokhanyisa sibane bese usibeka ngephansi kwesitja; kodvwa usibeka endzaweni yaso, kuze sikhanyisele wonkhe umuntfu losendlini. 16Kanjalo-ke akukhanye kukhanya kwenu embikwebantfu, kuze babone lokulungile lenikwentako, bese badvumisa uYihlo losezulwini.”
Ngekugcwaliseka kwemtsetfo
17“Ningacabangi kutsi ngitele kutewucitsa umtsetfo netimfundziso tebaphrofethi. Angiketeli kutewucitsa, kodvwa ngitele kutewugcwalisa.
18“Ngicinisile, ngitsi kini: Kuyakudzimate kwendlule lizulu nemhlaba seloku kute ngisho nalelincane nje lichashatana lelitawususwa emtsetfweni, kuze kufezeke konkhe. 19Ngako-ke lowo lowephula munye kulemiyalo lemincanyana, aphindze afundzise labanye kanjalo, uyakuba ngulomncane embusweni welizulu; kepha loyigcinako ayifundzise, lowo kuyawutsiwa mkhulu embusweni welizulu. 20Ngobe ngiyanitjela impela ngitsi: Ngaphandle kwekutsi kulunga kwenu kwendlule kwetati temtsetfo nekwebaFarisi, ningeke ningene embusweni welizulu.”
Ngekutfukutsela
21“Nivile kutsi kwatsiwa kubakadzeni: ‘Ungabulali, ngobe lowo lobulalako uyawulahlwa licala.’ 22Kepha mine ngitsi kini: Lowo lotfukutselela umnakabo, uyawulahlwa licala; nalowo lowetfuka umnakabo, uyakuba nelicala emtsetfweni; nalowo lotsi kumnakabo: ‘Silima,’ uyawufanelwa ngumlilo wesihogo. 23Ngako nangabe utawunikela ngesipho sakho elatini kuNkulunkulu, bese ukhumbula kutsi umnakenu unemavundvo nawe, 24sishiye khona lapho embikwelilati sipho sakho, uhambe uyekubuyisana nemnakenu, bese uyabuya-ke utewunikela ngesipho sakho.
25“Sheshisa ucolisane nalowo lenimangalelane naye nisaya enkantolo, funa akunikele kumehluleli, umehluleli akunikele ephoyiseni, liphoyisa likuvalele ejele. 26Ngicinisile, ngitsi: Ungeke usaphuma lapho ungakakhiphi isenti yekugcina.”
Ngekuphinga
27“Nivile kutsi kwatsiwa: ‘Ungaphingi.’ 28Kepha mine ngitsi kini: Ngulowo nalowo lobuka lomsikati, bese uyamkhanuka, sewuphinge naye enhlitiyweni yakhe. 29Nangabe liso lakho langesekudla likonisa, likhokhe ulilahle; ngobe kuncono kuwe kulahlekelwa sitfo sinye semtimba kunekutsi umtimba wakho wonkhe ulahlwe uphelele esihogweni. 30Nangabe sandla sakho sangesekudla sikonisa, sijube usilahle; ngobe kuncono kuwe kulahlekelwa sitfo sinye semtimba kunekutsi umtimba wakho wonkhe ulahlwe uphelele esihogweni.”
Ngekwehlukana kwemfati nendvodza
31“Kwatsiwa: ‘Lowo lolahla umkakhe akamnike incwadzi yesehlukaniso.’ 32Kepha mine ngitsi: Lowo lolahla umkakhe ngaphandle kwebugwadla, uyamphingisa; nalotsatsa umfati lolahliwe, uyaphinga.”
Ngekufunga
33“Nivile futsi kutsi kubakadzeni kwatsiwa: ‘Ungawafungeli emanga, kepha feza tifungo takho eNkhosini.’ 34Kodvwa mine ngitsi kini: Ningafungi sanhlobo: nome ngelizulu, ngobe lingumchele waNkulunkulu; 35nome ngemhlaba, ngobe usenabelo setinyawo takhe; ngisho nangeJerusalema, ngobe kulidolobha leNkhosi yemakhosi. 36Ungafungi ngisho nangenhloko yakho, ngobe ungeke ugucule ngisho nalunye lunwele kutsi lube mhlophe, nome lube ntima. 37Nanivuma nibotsi: ‘Yebo’ nome-ke nitsi: ‘Cha’ nangabe niyala; ngobe lokwendlula lapho kuvela kuLomubi.”
Ngekuphindzisela
38“Nivile futsi kutsi kwatsiwa: ‘Liso ngeliso, litinyo ngelitinyo.’ 39Kodvwa mine ngitsi kini: Ningamelani nalokubi; umuntfu nakakumukula esihlatsini sangesekudla, mnike nalesi lesinye. 40Nangabe umuntfu akwemuka lihembe, mnike nelijazi futsi. 41Nangabe umuntfu akucindzetela kutsi uhambe naye likhilometha libe linye umetfwalele umtfwalo wakhe, hamba naye abe mabili. 42Muphe locela lutfo kuwe, ungamtsalaliseli lofuna kuboleka kuwe.”
Ngekutsandza titsa
43“Nivile kutsi kwatsiwa: ‘Ubotsandza makhelwane wakho, utondze sitsa sakho.’ 44Kodvwa mine ngitsi kini: Tsandzani titsa tenu, nibakhulekele labanitingelela kunihlupha, 45kuze nitewuba ngemadvodzana eYihlo losezulwini. Ngobe yena uphumisa lilanga lakhe kulababi nalabahle, anise imvula yakhe kulabalungile nalabangakalungi. 46Kambe nanitsandza labanitsandzako, ninamvuzo muni? Abenti njalo yini nebatselisi? 47Futsi nanibingelela bazalwane benu bodvwa, nenta buncono buni-ke? Abenti njalo yini nebetive? 48Ngako-ke nani banini ngulabaphelele, njengobe neYihlo losezulwini aphelele.”
