Lucas 24

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.
