Zizindikiro za Masiku Otsiriza
24 Yesu anatuluka mʼNyumba ya Mulungu ndipo akuchoka ophunzira ake anadza kwa Iye ndi kumuonetsa mamangidwe a Nyumbayo. 2 Iye anawafunsa kuti, “Kodi mukuona zinthu zonsezi? Zoonadi, Ine ndikuwuzani kuti palibe mwala pano umene udzasiyidwe pa unzake; uliwonse udzagwetsedwa pansi.”
3 Pamene Yesu anakhala pansi pa phiri la Olivi, ophunzira ake anabwera kwa Iye mwamseri nati, “Tiwuzeni, kodi izi zidzachitika liti, ndipo chizindikiro cha kubwera kwanu ndi zizindikiro za kutha kwa dziko zidzakhala chiyani?”
4 Yesu anayankha kuti, “Onetsetsani kuti wina asakunyengeni. 5 Pakuti ambiri adzabwera mʼdzina langa nadzati, ‘Ndine Khristu,’ ndipo adzanyenga ambiri. 6 Mudzamva za nkhondo ndi mbiri za nkhondo, koma onetsetsani kuti musadzidzimuke nazo. Zotere ziyenera kuchitika, koma chimaliziro sichinafike. 7 Mtundu ndi mtundu udzawukirana, ndipo ufumu ndi ufumu udzawukirana. Kudzakhala njala ndi zivomerezi mʼmalo osiyanasiyana. 8 Zonsezi ndi chiyambi chabe cha zowawa.
9 “Pamenepo adzakuperekani kuti mukazunzidwe ndi kuphedwa, ndipo mitundu yonse idzakudani chifukwa cha Ine. 10 Pa nthawi imeneyo ambiri adzasiya chikhulupiriro ndipo adzadana ndi kuperekana wina ndi mnzake, 11 ndipo aneneri onama ambiri adzaoneka ndi kunyenga anthu ambiri. 12 Chifukwa cha kuchuluka kwa zoyipa, chikondi cha ambiri chidzazirala, 13 koma wopirira kufikira chimaliziro adzapulumuka. 14 Ndipo uthenga wa ufumu udzalalikidwa ku dziko lonse lapansi ngati umboni kwa mitundu yonse, ndipo pomwepo chimaliziro chidzafika.”
15 “Tsono mukadzaona chinthu chonyansa chosakaza chitayima pamalo oyera chimene anayankhula mneneri Danieli, owerengayo azindikire. 16 Pamenepo amene ali ku Yudeya athawire ku mapiri. 17 Yemwe ali pa denga la nyumba yake asatsike kukatulutsa chinthu chilichonse mʼnyumba. 18 Yemwe ali ku munda asapite kukatenga mkanjo wake. 19 Kudzakhala koopsa kwambiri masiku amenewo kwa amayi oyembekezera ndi kwa oyamwitsa! 20 Pempherani kuti kuthawa kwanu kusadzachitike nthawi yozizira kapena pa Sabata. 21 Popeza kudzakhala masautso aakulu, omwe safanana ndi ena ali onse chiyambireni cha dziko lapansi mpaka lero lino ndipo sadzafanananso ndi ena. 22 Ngati masiku amenewo sakanafupikitsidwa, palibe mmodzi akanapulumuka, koma chifukwa cha osankhidwawo masiku amenewo adzafupikitsidwa. 23 Pa nthawi imeneyo ngati wina adzati kwa inu, ‘Onani, Khristu ali pano!’ Kapena, ‘Uyo ali ukoyo!’ Musakhulupirire. 24 Chifukwa akhristu onama ndi aneneri onama adzaoneka ndipo adzachita zizindikiro zazikulu ndi zodabwitsa kuti akanyenge ngakhale osankhidwawo ngati kukanakhala kotheka kutero. 25 Onani, ndakuwuzani izi nthawi isanafike.
26 “Ndiye ngati wina akuwuzani inu kuti, ‘Uyo ali ku chipululu,’ inu musapiteko; kapena akati, ‘Uyu ali kuno mʼchipinda chamʼkati,’ musakhulupirire. 27 Monga momwe mphenzi ingʼanima kuchokera kummawa kupita kumadzulo, momwemonso kudzakhala kubwera kwa Mwana wa Munthu. 28 Kulikonse kuli chinthu cha kufa, makwangwala adzasonkhanako.
29 “Akadzangotha mavuto a masiku amenewo,
“ ‘dzuwa lidzadetsedwa,
ndipo mwezi sudzawala;
nyenyezi zidzagwa kuchokera kumwamba,
ndipo mphamvu za mmwamba zidzagwedezeka.’
30 “Pa nthawi imeneyo chizindikiro cha Mwana wa Munthu chidzaoneka mlengalenga, ndipo mitundu yonse ya pa dziko lapansi idzalira. Idzaona Mwana wa Munthu akubwera ndi mitambo, mphamvu ndi ulemerero waukulu. 31 Ndipo adzatuma angelo ake, ndi kulira kwa lipenga kwakukulu, nadzasonkhanitsa osankhidwa ake kuchokera ku mphepo zinayi, ndi kuchokera kumathero a thambo kufika mbali ina.
32 “Tsopano kuchokera ku mtengo wamkuyu phunzirani ichi: Pamene uyamba kuphukira, masamba ake akatuluka, mumadziwa kuti dzinja layandikira. 33 Momwemonso, pamene mudzaona zinthu zonsezi mudzadziwe kuti ali pafupi pa khomo penipeni. 34 Zoonadi, ndikuwuzani kuti mʼbado uwu sudzatha mpaka zinthu zonse zitachitika. 35 Kumwamba ndi dziko lapansi zidzatha, koma mawu anga sadzatha.”
Tsiku ndi Nthawi Sizidziwika
36 “Palibe amene adziwa za tsikulo kapena nthawi, angakhale angelo akumwamba, angakhale Mwana, koma Atate okha. 37 Monga momwe zinalili nthawi ya Nowa, momwemonso zidzatero pobwera kwa Mwana wa Munthu. 38 Pakuti masiku amenewo chisanafike chigumula, anthu amadya ndi kumwa, kukwatira ndi kukwatiwa, mpaka tsiku limene Nowa analowa mʼchombo; 39 ndipo sanadziwe za chimene chikanachitika mpaka pamene chigumula chinafika ndi kuwamiza onse. Umu ndi mmene zidzakhalira pobwera kwa Mwana wa Munthu. 40 Amuna awiri adzakhala mʼmunda; wina adzatengedwa ndi wina adzatsala. 41 Amayi awiri adzakhala akusinja pa mtondo; wina adzatengedwa ndi wina adzatsala.
42 “Chifukwa chake yangʼanirani, popeza simudziwa tsiku lanji limene Ambuye anu adzabwera. 43 Koma zindikirani ichi: Ngati mwini nyumba akanadziwa nthawi yanji ya usiku imene mbala imabwera, sakanagona ndipo sakanalola kuti nyumba yake ithyoledwe. 44 Inunso tsono muyenera kukhala okonzeka, chifukwa Mwana wa Munthu adzabwera pa nthawi imene inu simukumuyembekezera.
Wantchito Wokhulupirika ndi Wosakhulupirika
45 “Kodi wantchito wokhulupirika ndi wanzeru amene ambuye ake anamuyika kukhala woyangʼanira antchito a mʼnyumba kuti awapatse chakudya chawo pa nthawi yake ndani? 46 Chidzakhala chabwino kwa wantchitoyo ngati mbuye wake pofika adzamupeza akuchita zimenezi. 47 Zoonadi, ndikuwuzani kuti adzamuyika kukhala woyangʼanira katundu wake yense. 48 Koma tiyerekeze kuti wantchitoyo ndi woyipa, nati kwa iye yekha, ‘Mbuye wanga akuchedwa kubwera,’ 49 nayamba kumenya antchito anzake, nadya ndi kumwa ndi zidakwa. 50 Mbuye wa wantchitoyo adzabwera pa tsiku limene iye samamuyembekezera ndi pa nthawi imene iye sakuyidziwa. 51 Adzamulanga koopsa ndipo adzamuyika kokhala anthu achiphamaso, kumene kudzakhala kulira ndi kukukuta mano.”
Fanizo la Anamwali Khumi
25 “Nthawi imeneyo ufumu wakumwamba udzafanizidwa ndi anamwali khumi amene anatenga nyale zawo napita kukakumana ndi mkwati. 2 Asanu anali opusa ndipo asanu ena anali ochenjera. 3 Opusawo anatenga nyale zawo koma sanatenge mafuta; 4 koma ochenjerawo anatenga mafuta awo mʼmabotolo pamodzi ndi nyale zawo. 5 Mkwati anachedwa ndipo onse anayamba kusinza nagona.
6 “Pakati pa usiku kunamveka kufuwula kuti, ‘Onani Mkwati! Tulukani kuti mukakumane naye!’
7 “Pamenepo anamwali onse anadzuka nayatsa nyale zawo. 8 Opusawo anati kwa ochenjerawo, ‘Tipatseniko mafuta anu; nyale zathu zikuzima.’
9 “Ochenjerawo anayankha, nati, ‘Ayi sangakwanire inu ndi ife. Pitani kwa ogulitsa mafuta ndi kukadzigulira nokha.’
10 “Koma pamene ankapita kukagula mafutawo, mkwati anafika. Anamwali amene anali okonzeka aja analowa naye pamodzi mʼnyumba ya phwando la ukwati. Ndipo khomo linatsekedwa.
11 “Pambuyo pake enawo anabwera nati, ‘Ambuye! Ambuye! Titsekulireni!’
12 “Koma iye anayankha kuti, ‘Zoonadi, ine ndikuwuzani kuti sindikukudziwani.’
13 “Choncho khalani odikira, popeza simudziwa tsiku kapena nthawi.”
Fanizo la Kagwiritsidwe Ntchito ka Ndalama
14 “Komanso udzafanizidwa ndi munthu amene ankapita pa ulendo, ndipo anayitana antchito ake nawasiyira chuma chake. 15 Wina anamupatsa ndalama 5,000, kwa wina 2,000 ndi kwa wina 1,000. Aliyense monga mwa nzeru zake. Pamenepo anapita pa ulendo wake. 16 Munthu amene analandira ndalama 5,000 uja, anapita nthawi yomweyo nachita nazo malonda napindula 5,000 zina. 17 Chimodzimodzinso amene analandira 2,000 uja anapindula 2,000 zina. 18 Koma munthu amene analandira 1,000 uja, anapita nakumba dzenje nabisapo ndalama ya mbuye wake.
19 “Patapita nthawi yayitali, mbuye wa antchitowo anabwera nawayitana kuti afotokoze chimene anachita ndi ndalama zija. 20 Munthu amene analandira ndalama 5,000 uja anabweretsa 5,000 zina nati, ‘Ambuye munandisungitsa 5,000, taonani ndapindula 5,000 zinanso.’
21 “Ambuye ake anayankha nati, ‘Wachita bwino, wantchito wabwino ndi wokhulupirika iwe! Wakhala wokhulupirika pa zinthu zochepa; ndidzakuyika iwe kukhala woyangʼanira zinthu zambiri. Bwera, udzakondwere pamodzi ndi mbuye wako!’
22 “Munthu amene anali ndi ndalama 2,000 uja anabweranso nati, ‘Ambuye munandisungitsa 2,000, onani, ndapindula 2,000 zinanso.’
23 “Mbuye wake anayankha nati, ‘Wachita bwino, wantchito wabwino ndi wokhulupirika! Wakhala wokhulupirika pa zinthu zochepa; ndidzakuyika kukhala woyangʼanira zinthu zambiri. Bwera, udzakondwere pamodzi ndi mbuye wako!’
24 “Kenaka munthu amene analandira ndalama 1,000 uja anabwera nati, ‘Ambuye ndinadziwa kuti ndinu munthu wowuma mtima, amene mumakolola pamene simunadzale ndi kututa kumene simunafese. 25 Choncho ndinachita mantha ndipo ndinapita ndi kukabisa ndalama yanuyo pa dzenje. Onani, si iyi ndalama yanu ija.’
26 “Mbuye wake anayankha nati, ‘Iwe wantchito woyipa ndi waulesi! Iwe umadziwa kuti ndimakolola pamene sindinadzale, ndi kututa kumene sindinafese. 27 Bwanji sunayike ndalama yanga kwa osunga ndalama kuti ine pobwera ndidzalandire ndalama yangayo pamodzi ndi chiwongoladzanja?
28 “ ‘Mulandeni ndalamayo, ndipo patsani iye amene ali ndi ndalama 10,000. 29 Pakuti aliyense amene ali nazo adzapatsidwa zambiri, ndipo adzakhala nazo zochuluka. Aliyense amene alibe adzalandidwa ngakhale chimene ali nacho. 30 Ndipo muponyeni wantchito wopanda phinduyu kunja, ku mdima kumene kudzakhala kulira ndi kukukuta mano.’ ”
Nkhosa ndi Mbuzi
31 “Pamene Mwana wa Munthu adzabwera mu ulemerero wake, pamodzi ndi angelo ake onse, adzakhala pa mpando waufumu mu ulemerero wakumwamba. 32 Mitundu yonse ya anthu idzasonkhanitsidwa pamaso pake, ndipo adzawalekanitsa iwo wina ndi mnzake monga mʼbusa amalekanitsa nkhosa ndi mbuzi. 33 Adzayika nkhosa ku dzanja lake lamanja ndi mbuzi ku lamanzere.
34 “Pamenepo mfumu idzati kwa a ku dzanja lamanja, ‘Bwerani inu odalitsika ndi Atate anga; landirani ufumu umene unakonzedwa chifukwa cha inu kuyambira pachiyambi cha dziko. 35 Pakuti ndinali ndi njala ndipo munandipatsa chakudya, ndinali ndi ludzu ndipo munandipatsa madzi akumwa, ndinali mlendo ndipo munandilandira, 36 ndinali wausiwa ndipo munandiveka, ndinali wodwala ndipo munandisamalira, ndinali ku ndende ndipo inu munandiyendera.’
37 “Ndipo olungamawo adzamuyankha kuti, ‘Ambuye ndi liti tinakuonani muli ndi njala ndipo tinakudyetsani, kapena ludzu ndipo tinakupatsani madzi akumwa? 38 Ndi liti tinakuonani muli mlendo ndipo tinakulandirani, kapena wa usiwa ndipo tinakuvekani? 39 Ndi liti tinakuonani mutadwala kapena ku ndende ndipo tinakuyenderani?’
40 “Mfumu idzayankha kuti, ‘Zoonadi, ndikuwuzani kuti chilichonse chimene munachitira mmodzi wa abale anga onyozekawa munandichitira Ine.’
41 “Pamenepo adzanena kwa akumanzere kwake kuti, ‘Chokani kwa Ine, inu otembereredwa, pitani ku moto wosatha wokonzedwera mdierekezi ndi angelo ake. 42 Pakuti ndinali ndi njala ndipo simunandipatse chakudya, ndinali ndi ludzu ndipo simunandipatse madzi akumwa, 43 ndinali mlendo koma inu simunandilandire, ndinali wa usiwa koma simunandiveke, ndinali wodwala komanso ku ndende simunandisamalire.’
44 “Iwo adzayankha kuti, ‘Ambuye ndi liti tinakuonani muli ndi njala kapena ludzu kapena mlendo kapena wausiwa kapena wodwala kapena mʼndende, ndipo kuti sitinakuthandizeni?’
45 “Iye adzayankha kuti, ‘Zoonadi, ndikuwuzani kuti chilichonse chimene simunachitire mmodzi wa abale anga onyozekawa simunandichitire Ine.’
46 “Amenewa adzapita ku chilango chosatha pamene olungama ku moyo wosatha.”
