‏ Luke 24

Ukuvuka KukaJesu

1 Ngosuku lokuqala lweviki ekuseni kakhulu abesifazane bathatha amakha ababewalungisile baya ethuneni. 2 Bafumana ilitshe ligiqiwe, lasuswa ethuneni, 3 kodwa bathi bengena kabaze basithola isidumbu seNkosi uJesu. 4 Bathi belokhu besathithibele ngakho, masinyane kwema eduze labo amadoda amabili egqoke izigqoko ezazikhazimula njengombane. 5 Bethuka abesifazane bathi mbo phansi ngobuso, kodwa amadoda lawo athi kubo, “Lidingelani ophilayo kwabafileyo na? 6 Kakho lapha; usevukile! Khumbulani ukuthi walitshelani eseselani eGalile: 7 ‘INdodana yoMuntu kumele inikelwe ezandleni zezoni, ibethelwe esiphambanweni kuthi ngosuku lwesithathu ivuswe njalo.’ ” 8 Basebewakhumbula amazwi akhe.

9 Kwathi sebebuyile bevela ethuneni, zonke lezizinto bazibikela abalitshumi lanye labanye bonke. 10 KwakunguMariya Magadalini, loJowana, loMariya unina kaJakhobe labanye ababelabo abatshela abapostoli ngalokhu. 11 Kodwa kababakholwanga abesifazane laba, ngoba amazwi abo ayengathi yikuwumana kubo. 12 Kodwa uPhethro wasukuma wagijimela ethuneni. Walunguza wabona amaqhele elineni ethe qekele wodwa, wasebuyela emangele ukuthi kambe kwakwenzakaleni.

Endleleni Eya E-Emawusi

13 Kwathi ngalelolanga ababili babo babehamba besiya emzini owawuthiwa yi-Emawusi, ongaba ngamakhilomitha alitshumi lanye usuka eJerusalema. 14 Babekhulumisana ngakho konke okwakwenzakele. 15 Bathi belokhu bekhuluma bebonisana ngazo lezizinto, uJesu yena ngokwakhe wabaxhuma wasehambisana labo; 16 kodwa abaze bamnanzelela ukuthi nguye.

17 Wababuza wathi, “Likhuluma ngani kanti lilokhu liphakathi kohambo lwenu?”

Bema mpo, ubuso babo bubunile. 18 Omunye wabo owayethiwa nguKlophasi wambuza wathi, “Kanti wena uyisihambi yini eJerusalema ukhanya ungazazi izinto ezenzakele kuzolezi insuku?”

19 Wabuza wathi, “Yizinto bani na?”

Baphendula bathi, “Mayelana ngoJesu waseNazaretha. Wayengumphrofethi; elomfutho ngokukhuluma langezenzo phambi kukaNkulunkulu lasebantwini bonke. 20 Abaphristi abakhulu lababusi bethu bamnikela ukuba agwetshelwe ukufa, basebembethela; 21 kodwa thina sasithembe ukuthi nguye owayezahlenga u-Israyeli. Futhi okunye yikuthi sekulusuku lwesithathu kulokhu kwenzakala konke lokhu. 22 Phezu kwalokhu, abanye besifazane bethu basimangalisile. Bahambe ethuneni ekuseni kakhulu lamuhla, 23 kodwa kabasifumananga isidumbu sakhe. Babuyile bazasitshela ukuthi babone umbono wezingilosi ezithe uyaphila. 24 Kwasekusithi abanye babakhula bethu baya ethuneni bathola kunjengokuba abesifazane betshilo, kodwa yena kabamtholanga.”

25 Wathi kubo, “Uthi liyizithutha ezinjani, njalo lilezinhliziyo ezithundubeleyo ekukholweni konke lokho okwakhulunywa ngabaphrofethi! 26 UKhristu wayengamelanga ahlupheke yini zonke lezi izinto andubana angene ebukhosini bakhe na?” 27 Wasesukela kuMosi kanye labaPhrofethi bonke wabachazela okwatshiwo emibhalweni mayelana laye.

28 Bathi sebebanga emzini lowo ababesiya kuwo uJesu wenza ingathi wayesedlula. 29 Kodwa bamncenga kakhulu bathi, “Hlala lathi ngoba sekusihlwa; usuku luphose selwedlule.” Wasengena ukuthi ayehlala labo.

30 Wathi esehlezi labo etafuleni wathatha isinkwa wabonga, wasesihlephuna wasebaqhubela. 31 Kwathi dlwe emehlweni abo, bamazi, yena wasenyamalala kubo. 32 Babuzana bathi, “Konje inhliziyo zethu bezingatshiseki yini lapho abe ekhuluma lathi endleleni esivulela imibhalo na?”

33 Bahle bathi lothu masinyane babuyela eJerusalema. Khonale bathola abalitshumi lanye kanye lalabo ababelabo bebuthene ndawonye 34 besithi, “Kuliqiniso! INkosi isivukile kwabafileyo yabonakala kuSimoni.” 35 Kwathi labo ababili balandisa ngalokho okwakwenzakele endleleni, lokuthi uJesu bamnanzelela njani lapho aze ahlephune isinkwa.

UJesu Ubonakala KubaFundi

36 Bathi belokhu besakhuluma ngakho lokhu, uJesu yena ngokwakhe wema phakathi kwabo wathi, “Ukuthula kakube kini.”

37 Bethuka besaba, bekhumbula ukuthi babebona ithonga 38 Wathi kubo, “Kungani lihluphekile, njalo kungani kulokuthandabuza ezingqondweni zenu? 39 Khangelani izandla zami lezinyawo zami. Yimi mina ngokwami! Ngithintani libone; ithonga kalilanyama lamathambo njengoba libona ukuthi mina ngilakho.”

40 Esetshilo lokhu wabatshengisa izandla lezinyawo zakhe. 41 Kwathi belokhu bengakholwa ngenxa yokuthaba lokumangala wababuza wathi, “Lilakho okokudla lapha na?” 42 Bamupha iqatha lenhlanzi exatshiweyo, 43 wayithatha wayidla phambi kwabo.

44 Wathi kubo, “Lokhu yikho engalitshela khona ngiseselani ukuthi: Konke kumele kugcwaliseke okwalotshwa ngami eMthethweni kaMosi labaPhrofethi lamaHubo.”

45 Wasebavula ingqondo zabo ukuze bakwazi ukuzwisisa imibhalo. 46 Wabatshela wathi, “Nanku okulotshiweyo: UKhristu uzahlupheka aphinde avuke kwabafileyo ngosuku lwesithathu, 47 njalo ukuphenduka lokuthethelelwa kwezono kuzatshunyayelwa ebizweni lakhe ezizweni zonke, kuqala eJerusalema. 48 Lingofakazi balezizinto. 49 Ngizalithumezela lokho uBaba akuthembisileyo; kodwa libohlala edolobheni lize liphiwe amandla avela phezulu.”

Ukwenyukela Ezulwini

50 Kwathi esebakhokhele waya labo eduze leBhethani waphakamisa izandla zakhe wababusisa. 51 Uthe elokhu esababusisa, wabatshiya, wenyukiselwa ezulwini. 52 Basebemkhonza, babuyela eJerusalema bethokoza kakhulu. 53 Bahlala kokuphela ethempelini bedumisa uNkulunkulu.
