UMateyu Chapter6
1 Lumkani, ubulungisa benu ningabenzeli ebusweni babantu, ngokunga ningabonwa ngabo; okanye, aninamvuzo kuYihlo osemazulwini.
2 Ngoko, xa sukuba uliza abantu, ungahlokomisi xilongo phambi kwakho, njengoko benza ngako abahanahanisi ezindlwini zesikhungu, nasezitratweni, ukuze bazukiswe ngabantu. Inene ndithi kuni, Bawufincile umvuzo wabo.
3 Ke wena, xa uliza abantu, masingazi isandla sakho sokhohlo into eyenziwa sisandla sakho sokunene,
4 ukuze amalizo akho abe semfihlekweni; aze uYihlo obona emfihlekweni akubuyisele ekuhleni yena.
5 Naxa sukuba uthandaza, uze ungabi njengabahanahanisi; ngokuba bethanda ukuthandaza bemi ezindlwini zesikhungu nasezimbombeni zezitrato, ngokokuze babe nokubonwa ngabantu. Inene ndithi kuni, Bawufincile umvuzo wabo.
6 Ke wena, xa sukuba uthandaza, ngena egumbini lakho, uthi, uluvalile ucango lwakho, uthandaze kuYihlo osemfihlekweni; aze noYihlo obona emfihlekweni akubuyisele ekuhleni.
7 Nithandaza njalo ke, maningenzi milembelele ingeyanto, njengabeentlanga; kuba beba boviwa ngenxa yamazwi abo amaninzi.
8 Ngoko maningafani nabo; kuba ekwazi uYihlo enikusweleyo, ningekamceli.
9 Thandazani ngoko nina nenjenje:Bawo wethu osemazulwini, malingcwaliswe igama lakho.
10 Mabufike ubukumkani bakho. Makwenziwe ukuthanda kwakho nasemhlabeni, njengokuba kusenziwa emazulwini.
11 Siphe namhla isonka sethu semihla ngemihla.
12 Usixolele amatyala ethu, njengokuba nathi sibaxolela abo banamatyala kuthi.
13 Ungasingenisi ekulingweni, sihlangule enkohlakalweni. Ngokuba bubobakho ubukumkani, namandla, nozuko, kuse kuwo amaphakade. Amen.
14 Kuba xa nithi nibaxolele abantu iziphoso zabo, uYihlo osemazulwini wonixolela nani.
15 Xa nithi ningabaxoleli abantu iziphoso zabo, noYihlo ke akayi kunixolela iziphoso zenu.
16 Xa sukuba ke nizila ukudla, maningabi njengabahanahanisi, bona bamatshekileyo; kuba babenza bubi ubuso babo, ukuze babonakale ebantwini ukuba bazilile. Inene ndithi kuni, Bawufincile umvuzo wabo.
17 Ke wena, wakuzila, yithambise intloko yakho, ubuhlambe ubuso bakho,
18 ukuze ungabonakali ebantwini ukuba uzilile, ubonakale kuYihlo osemfihlekweni; aze uYihlo obona emfihlekweni akubuyisele ekuhleni.
19 Ningaziqwebeli ubutyebi emhlabeni, apho konakalisa inundu nomhlwa, nalapho amasela agqobhozayo ebe;
20 ziqwebeleni ke ubutyebi emazulwini, apho kungonakalisi nundu namhlwa, nalapho amasela angagqobhoziyo ebe;
21 kuba apho bukhona ubutyebi benu, yoba lapho nentliziyo yenu.
22 Isibane somzimba liliso; xa sukuba iliso lakho ngoko lingenakumbi, umzimba wakho uphela wokhanyiseleka.
23 Kodwa xa sukuba iliso lakho likhohlakele, umzimba wakho uphela woba bubumnyama. Ukuba ngoko ukukhanya okukuwe kububumnyama, bungakanani na ubumnyama obo!
24 Akukho mntu unako ukukhonza nkosi mbini; kuba eya kuyithiya le ayithande leya, athi mhlawumbi abambelele kule ayidele leya. Aninako ukukhonza uThixo nobutyebi.
25 Ngenxa yoko ndithi kuni, Musani ukubuxhalela ubomi benu, nisithi nodla ntoni na; nosela ntoni na; kwanomzimba wenu, nisithi niya kwambatha ntoni na. Ubomi abungaphezulu na kuko ukudla, nomzimba awungaphezulu na kwinto yokwambatha?
26 Yondelani ezintakeni zasezulwini; ngokuba azihlwayeli, azivuni, azibutheli koovimba; ukanti ke uYihlo osemazulwini uyazondla. Nina anizidlule kakhulu na?
27 Nguwuphi na ke kuni onokuthi ngokuxhala ongeze ebukhulwini bakhe ikubhite ibe nye?
28 Kanjalo yini na ukuba nixhalele into yokwambatha? Gqalani iinyibiba zasendle, ukuhluma kwazo; azibulaleki, azisonti nokusonta;
29 ke ndithi kuni, noSolomon kubo bonke ubunewunewu bakhe, wayengavathiswanga nanjenganye kuzo ezi.
30 Ukuba ke ingca leyo yasendle, ethi namhla ibekho, ize ngomso iphoswe eziko, wenjenjalo uThixo ukuyambathisa, akayi kunambathisa kakhulu ngakumbi na, bantundini balukholo luncinane?
31 Musani ukuxhala ngoko, nisithi, Sodla ntoni na, sosela ntoni na, siya kwambatha ntoni na?
32 Kuba zonke ezo zinto zingxanyelwe ziintlanga; kuba uYihlo wasemazulwini uyazi ukuba ezo zinto zonke ziyafuneka kuni.
33 Funani ke tanci ubukumkani bukaThixo nobulungisa bakhe, zaye zonke ezo zinto ziya kongezelelwa kuni.
34 Ngoko musani ukuxhalela ingomso; kuba ingomso liya kuxhalela okwalo. Buyanele imini leyo obayo ububi.
