Mark 13 - Ndebele Bible (iBhayibhili Elingcwele) 1978

UJesu ukhuluma ngokuchithwa kweJerusalema langokuphela kwesikhathi(Mat 24:1–44; Luka 21:5–36)

1Kwathi ephuma ethempelini, omunye wabafundi bakhe wathi kuye: Mfundisi, khangela amatshe anjani lezakhiwo ezinjani!

2UJesu wathi kuye: Uyabona lezizakhiwo ezinkulu na? Kakuyikusala ilitshe elilodwa phezu kwelinye elingayikudilizelwa phansi.

3Esehlezi entabeni ethiwa iOliveti maqondana lethempeli uPetro loJakobe loJohane loAndreya bambuza bebodwa,

4bathi: Sitshele ukuba lokhu kuzakuba nini, lokuba isibonakaliso sizakuba yini, lapho sekuzakwenzakala lezizinto zonke na?

5Kwang’khona uJesu eqala ukuthi kubo: Qaphelani lingaduhiswa muntu.

6Abanengi bazakuza ngebizo lami besithi: Nginguye; baduhise abanengi.

7Kodwa nxa lisizwa ngezimpi lamahungahunga ezimpi, lingethuki; kufanele kwenzeke, kodwa ukuphela kuzabe kungakafiki.

8Ngoba isizwe sizakuvukela isizwe, lombuso uvukele umbuso; kube khona ukuzamazama komhlaba indawo ngendawo, kube khona indlala; lezizinto ziyikuqala komhelo wesikhathi esizayo.

9Kodwa qaphelani lina. Bazakulinikela emiphakathini; lizakutshaywa emasinagogeni; lizakumiswa phambi kwababusi ngenxa yami, kube yibufakazi kubo.

14Kodwa nxa libona amanyala encithakalo emi lapho angafanele khona — ofundayo kaqedisise — kung’khona labo abaseJudiya kababalekele entabeni,Dan 9:27; 11:31; 12:11

15ophezu kwendlu angehli, angangeni ukuthatha ulutho endlini yakhe,Luka 17:31

16lowo osemasimini angabuyeli emuva ukuyathatha ingubo yakhe.

17Maye kwabakhulelweyo labamunyisayo ngalezonsuku!

18Khulekani ukuba kungabi ebusika.

19Ngoba ngalezonsuku kuzakuba khona ukuhlupheka okungazanga kube khona ekuqaleni kokudabuka okwadatshulwa nguNkulunkulu kuze kube khathesi, lokungasayikuba khona.Dan 12:1; Isam 7:14

20Uba iNkosi ibingazifinyezanga insuku, bekungesiliswe muntu; kodwa izifinyezile ngenxa yabakhethiweyo ebakhethileyo.

21Kung’khonake nxa umuntu esithi kini: Khangelani, nangu uKristu; ingabe: Khangelani, nanguyana; lingakholwa.

22Kuzavela okristu bamanga labaprofethi bamanga, benze izibonakaliso lezimangaliso, ukuze kuthi nxa kungenzeka baduhise abakhethiweyo.

23Kodwa qaphelani lina; sengilitshelile konke ngaphambili.

24Kodwa ngalezonsuku emva kwalokhokuhlupheka ilanga lizakufiphala, lenyanga kayiyikukhanya,Isa 13:10; Hez 32:7; Jow 2:10, 31; 3:15; Isam 6:12

25inkanyezi zizabe zisiwa ezulwini, lamandla asezulwini azakuzanyazanyiswa.Isa 34:14; Jow 2:10; Isam 6:13

26Kung’khonake bazakubona iNdodana yomuntu isiza emayezini, ilamandla amakhulu lenkazimulo,Dan 7:13; Isam 1:7

27izakuthuma izithunywa zayo, iqoqe abakhethiweyo bayo emimoyeni emine, kusukela emikhawulweni yomhlaba kuze kube semikhawulweni yezulu.

28Fundani umfanekiso emkhiweni, lapho ugatsha lwawo selubuthakathaka, luhlume amahlamvu, liyazi ukuba ihlobo seliseduze.

29Kunjalo lani, nxa libona lezizinto zisenzeka, yazini ukuba kuseduze kusemnyango.

30Ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Lesisizukulwana kasiyikudlula, zingakenzeki izinto zonke lezi.

31Kuzakudlula izulu lomhlaba, kodwa amazwi ami kawayikudlula.

32Kodwa lolosuku lalesosikhathi kakho umuntu owaziyo ngaso, kanye lezithunywa zasezulwini, leNdodana, kodwa nguBaba kuphela.Mat 24:36

33Qaphelani, lilinde, ngoba kalisazi isikhathi ukuthi sizakuba nini.

34Kunjengomuntu owahambela kwelinye ilizwe; watshiya umuzi wakhe, wanika inceku zakhe amandla, enika leyo laleyo umsebenzi wayo, walaya umlindisango ukuba alinde.Luka 12:36–38

35Ngakho lindani, ngoba kalazi ukuthi inkosi yomuzi izakufika nini, loba kusihlwa loba phakathi kobusuku, loba ekukhaleni kwenkukhu, ingabe ekuseni,

36funa ifike ilijume, ilifumane lilele.

37Lokhu engikutsho kini ngikutsho kubo bonke, ngithi: Lindani.
