Setshwantsho ka balemi
1 Tse ke ditshwantsho dingwe tsa dipolelo tse Jesu o kileng a di bolelela batho ka nako eo. Monna o kile a jala tshimo, mme a e agelela ka logora a ba a epa lehuti la go gamolela matute a moretlwa, a aga ntlo ya molebeledi. Hong a naya balemi tshimo go e thapa ka tuelo, mme a ya kwa lefatshing le le kgakala.
2 Ka motlha wa thobo a romela mongwe wa badiri ba gagwe go tla go tsaya seabe sa gagwe sa thobo.
3 Mme balemi ba itaya morongwa ba mmusetsa morago a sa tsaya sepe.
4 Mme mong wa tshimo a romela mongwe gape wa badiri ba gagwe, yo le ene o neng a itewa fela jalo, ba mo itaya go gaisa wa pele, gonne o ne a ntshitswe dintho tse di boitshegang mo tlhogong.
5 Monna yo mongwe yo o neng a mo romile o ne a bolawa; mme morago, ba bangwe ba ne ba itewa kgotsa ba bolawa,
6 go fitlhela go sala a le mongwe fela, ebong morwawe yo o tsetsweng a le esi. La bofelo a romela ene, a gopola gore ba tlaa mo tlotla.
7 “Mme e rile fa balemi ba mmona a tla ba re, ‘Ke ene yo o tlaa tsayang tshimo fa rraagwe a a swa. Tlang re mmolayeng. Hong tshimo e tlaa nna ya rona!’
8 Hong ba mo tshwara ba mmolaya ba latlhela setopo sa gagwe kwa ntle ga tshimo.
9 “O akanya gore mong wa tshimo o tlaa dirang fa a utlwa ka se se diragetseng? O tlaa tla a ba bolaya botlhe, mme a neela ba bangwe tshimo eo.
10 A ga lo ga kologelwe gore lo badile temana mo dikwalong? e e reng, ‘Lentswe le baagi ba neng ba le latlha le ne la nna lentswe la kgokgotsho, lentswe le le tlotlegang thata mo kagong!
11 Se ke tiro ya Modimo e bile ke selo se se gakgamatsang go bonwa.’ ”
12 Baeteledipele ba Bajuta ba ne ba batla go mo tshwara teng foo, ka ntlha ya go dirisa setshwantsho se, gonne ba ne ba itse gore o raya bone, e ne e le balemi ba ba bosula mo polelong ya gagwe.
Lekgetho la ga Kaisara
13 Mme ba romela bangwe ba baeteledipele ba tumelo le ba dipolotiki go bua le ene le go leka go mo lalela gore a tle a bue sengwe se ba ka lekang go mo tshwara ka sone.
14 Mme ditlhola tse tsa re, “Moruti, re itse gore o bolela boammaaruri le fa go ntse jang! Ga o tlhotlhelediwe ke dikakanyo le dikeletso tsa batho, mme o ruta ditsela tsa Modimo sentle. Jaanong re bole lele, a go siame go duela lekgetho la Roma, kgotsa nnyaa?”
15 Jesu a bona leano la bone mme a re, “Ntshupegetsang ledi mme ke tlaa lo bolelela.”
16 E rile fa ba le mo naya a re, “Setshwantsho se le mokwalo ke tsa ga mang?” Ba mo raya ba re, “Ke tsa ga Kaesara.”
17 Mme Jesu a ba raya a re, “Go siame, fa e le gore ke tsa gagwe, mo neyeng ditsa gagwe. Mme tse eleng tsa Modimo di tshwanetse go newa Modimo!” Mme ba simolola go ingwaya ditlhogo ka ntlha ya go palelwa ke karabo ya gagwe.
Potso ka ga lonyalo morago ga tsogo
18 Hong Basadukai ba tla kwa go ene, e le setlhopha sengwe sa banna se se reng ga go na tsogo ya baswi. Potso ya bone ke e:
19 “Moruti, Moshe o re neile molao gore fa motho a a swa a sena bana, a monnawe a tseye mosadi wa gagwe mme a nne le bana le ene mo leineng la ga mogolowe.
20-22 Go kile ga bo go le bomorwa motho ba supa mme yo mo tona a nyala, a swa a sena bana. Jalo monnawe a nyala motlholagadi yoo mme le ene a akofa a swa a sena bana. Mme yo mongwe a mo nyala le ene a swa a sena bana ga tswelela jalo go fitlhelela ba a swa botlhe. Mme le gona go ne go sena bana; morago ga moo mosadi le ene a swa.
23 “Se re batlang go se itse ke se—Mo tsogong ya baswi, e tlaa nna mosadi wa ga mang gonne e ne e le mosadi wa bone botlhe?”
24 Jesu a araba a re, “Molato wa lona ke gore ga lo itse dikwalo, le fa e le nonofo ya Modimo.
25 Gonne e tlaa re fa batho ba ba supang ba, le mosadi ba tsoga mo baswing, ba tlaa bo ba sa nyala mme ba tlaa bo ba tshwana le baengele.
26 “Mme kaga tsogo ya baswi a ga lo ise lo ke lo bale mo lokwalong lwa ga Ekesodo ka ga Moshe le setlhare se se tukang? Modimo o ne wa raya Moshe wa re, ‘Ke Modimo wa ga Aberahame, Isake le Jakobe’.
27 “Modimo o ne o bolelela Moshe gore batho ba, le fa ba sule mo dingwageng tse di makgolokgolo tse di fetileng, ba ne ba sa ntse ba tshela, gonne o ka bo o se ka wa re, ‘Ke Modimo wa ba ba seong!’ Lo dirile phoso e tona.”
Taolo e kgolo
28 Mme mongwe wa baruti ba tumelo yo o neng a eme foo a reeditse puisanyo ya bone a lemoga gore Jesu o arabile sentle. Hong a botsa a re, “Mo melaong yotlhe, ke ofe wa botlhokwa?”
29 Jesu a araba a re, “Ke o o reng, ‘Utlwa wena Iseraele! Morena Modimo wa rona ke ene Modimo a le nosi.
30 Mme o tshwanetse go mo rata ka pelo yotlhe ya gago le ka mowa le ka tlhaloganyo le ka thata yotlhe ya gago.’
31 “Wa bobedi wa re, ‘O tshwanetse go rata ba bangwe fela jaaka o ithata;’ ga go na melao epe e e fetang e.”
32 Mme Moruti wa tumelo a araba a re, “Morena o buile boammaaruri fa o re go na le Modimo o le mongwe fela mme ga go na ope gape.
33 Mme ke itse gore go tlhokega thata go mo rata ka pelo yotlhe ya me le ka kitso, le go rata ba bangwe jaaka ke ithata, go na le go ntsha mehuta yotlhe ya ditlhabelo mo aletareng ya Tempele.”
34 Mme e rile Jesu a lemoga go tlhaloganya ga monna yo a re, “Ga o kgakala le Bogosi jwa Modimo.” Mme morago ga moo ga seka ga tlhola ga nna le ope yo o pelokgale go mmotsa dipotso.
Keresete ke Morwa Dafita
35 Ya re morago Jesu a ntse a ruta batho mo tikologong ya Tempele, a ba botsa potso e: “Ke eng fa baruti ba tumelo ya lona ba re, Mesia o tshwanetse a bo a le wa lotso lwa ga Kgosi Dafide?
36 Dafide ka esi o buile ka Mowa o o Boitshepo a re, ‘Modimo o reile Morena wa me wa re, nna ka fa letsogong ja me je legolo, ke be ke tle ke dire baba ba gago sebeo sa dinao tsa gago.’
37 E re ka Dafide a ne a mmitsa Morena wa gagwe, o ka nna morwawe jang?” (Kakanyo e ya itumedisa bontsintsi jwa batho, mme ba mo reetsa ka kgatlhego e kgolo thata.)
38 Dilo dingwe tse a di ba rutileng ka nako eo ke tse: “Itlhokomeleng mo baruting ba tumelo! Gonne ba rata go apara diaparo tsa bahumi le tsa barutegi, le gore batho botlhe ba ba ikobele fa ba tsamaya mo marekisetsong.
39 Ba rata go nna mo ditilong tse di kwa pele mo ditempeleng le manno a tlotlo mo medirong,
40 mme ga ba tlhabiwe ke ditlhong go tsietsa batlholagadi mo matlung a bone, tota ba fitlha gore ke batho ba mekgwa e e ntseng jang, ba dira jaaka o ka re ba obamela Modimo ka go rapela dithapelo tse di telele mo ponong ya batho. Ka ntlha ya go dira jalo katlholo ya bone e tlaa nna e kgolo.”
Seabe sa motlholagadi
41 Hong a ya fa letloleng la madi a Tempele a nna fa fatshe a lebelela fa bontsi jwa batho bo ntse bo latlhela madi. Bangwe ba ba neng ba humile ba ne ba latlhela a magolo.
42 Hong ga tla mosadi wa motlholagadi wa mohumanegi a tla a latlhela dithebe di le pedi.
43-44 A biletsa barutwa ba gagwe kwa go ene a re, “Mohumanegi yole wa motlholagadi o ntshitse mo go golo go feta gotlhe ga bahumi go kopantswe! Gonne bone ba ntshitse mo go botlana, ga dikhumo tsa bone, fa ene a ntshitse thebe ya gagwe ya bofelo.”
