Mat 16 - Ndebele Bible (iBhayibhili Elingcwele) 1978

Abafuna izibonakaliso(Mark 8:11–13; Luka 12:49–56; 11:29)

1AbaFarisi labaSadusi beza bacela kuye ukuba abatshengise isibonakaliso esivela ezulwini, bemlinga.UJesu ukhuza abafundi ngokungaqedisisi kwabo(Mark 8:14–21)

5Sebefikile ngaphetsheya abafundi babekhohliwe ukuphatha ukudla.

6UJesu wasesithi kibo: Qaphelani, lixwaye imvubelo yabaFarisi labaSadusi.Luka 12:1

7Bakhulumisana bodwa besithi: Kungoba singaphathanga ukudla.

8UJesu ekwazi lokhu wathi: Lina elilokukholwa okuncinyane, kungani likhulumisana ngokuthi kalilakudla na?

9Kalikaqedisisi yini, futhi kalikhumbuli izinkwa ezinhlanu zezinkulungwane ezinhlanu, lokuthi labutha izitsha ezingaki na?Mat 14:17–21

10Lezinkwa zezinkulungwane ezine, lokuthi labutha izitsha ezingaki na?Mat 15:34–38

11Kaliqedisisi ngani ukuthi bengingakhulumi lani ngesinkwa na? Kodwa xwayani imvubelo yabaFarisi labaSadusi.

12Basebebona ukuthi katshongo ukuba baxwaye imvubelo yezinkwa kodwa ukufundisa kwabaFarisi labaSadusi.

Isivumo sokukholwa sikaPetro(Mark 8:27–30; Luka 9:18–21)

13Kwathi uJesu esefikile endaweni yaseKesariya Filiphi wababuza abafundi bakhe, wathi: Abantu bathi iNdodana yomuntu ingubani na?

14Bathi: Abanye bathi nguJohane uMbhaphathizi; labanye bathi nguElija; labanye bathi nguJeremiya ingabe omunye wabaprofethi.Mat 14:1, 2; Mark 6:14, 15; Luka 9:7, 8

15Wathi kubo: Linake lithi ngingubani na?

16USimoni Petro waphendula wathi: UnguKristu, iNdodana kaNkulunkulu ophilayo.Joha 6:68, 69

17UJesu wamphendula wathi kuye: Ubusisiwe wena Simoni kaJona, ngoba inyama legazi kakukwambulelanga lokhu kodwa uBaba osezulwini.

18Lamike ngithi kuwe: Wena unguPetro okuyikuthi Dwala; phezu kwalelidwala ngizakulakha ibandla lami; amasango endawo yabafileyo kawayikulahlula.

19Ngizakukunika amakhiye ombuso wezulu. Lokho ozakukubopha emhlabeni kuzakuba kubotshiwe lasezulwini; lalokho ozakukuthukulula emhlabeni kuzakuba kuthukululwe lasezulwini.Mat 18:18; Joha 20:23

20Wasebalayisisa abafundi ukuba bangatsheli muntu ukuthi nguye onguKristu.

UJesu ukhuluma ngokuhlupheka kwakhe(Mark 8:31–33; Luka 9:22)

21Kusukela kulesosikhathi uJesu waqala ukubatshengisa abafundi bakhe ukuba umele ukuya eJerusalema, ahlutshwe kakhulu ngabadala labapristi abakhulu lababhali, abulawe, avuswe ngosuku lwesithathu.

22UPetro wamthatha, waqala ukumkhalimela esithi: Kakungabi kuwe, Nkosi, lokhu kakusoze kwenziwa kuwe.

23Yena waphendula, wathi kuPetro: Buyela emva kwami, Sathane; uyisikhubekiso kimi, ngoba kawucabangi ngezinto zikaNkulunkulu kodwa ngezabantu.

Ukuhlutshwa kukaJesu lokwabamlandelayo(Mark 8:34—9:1; Luka 9:23–27)

24UJesu wasesithi kubafundi bakhe: Uba umuntu ethanda ukungilandela, kazidele, athathe isiphambano sakhe, angilandele.Mat 10:38; Luka 14:27

25Ngoba ilowo lalowo othanda ukusilisa ukuphila kwakhe kuzamlahlekela; kodwa olahlekelwa yikuphila kwakhe ngami uzakukufumana.Mat 10:39; Luka 17:33; Joha 12:25

26Ngoba kuzamsizani umuntu ukuzuza umhlaba wonke, alahlekelwe yikuphila kwakhe; ingabe anganikani umuntu kube yinhlawulo yokuphila kwakhe na?

27Ngoba iNdodana yomuntu izakuza ngenkazimulo kaYise kanye lezithunywa; kung’khona izakuvuza ilowo lalowo njengokwenza kwakhe.Mat 25:31; Hubo 62:12; Roma 2:6

28Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Bakhona abanye kwabemiyo lapha abangayikuzwa ukufa baze bayibone iNdodana yomuntu isiza embusweni wayo.
