Umzekeliso woMhlwayeli UMateyu 13:1-23 1 Ngaloo mini uYesu waphuma endlwini, waya kuhlala ngaselwandle. 2 Kwahlanganisana kuye izihlwele ezinkulu, wada wangena emkhombeni, wahlala phantsi; zathi zonke izihlwele zema elunxwemeni. 3 Wathetha izinto ezininzi kubo ngemizekeliso, esithi, Yabonani, umhlwayeli waphuma waya kuhlwayela; 4 Ekuhlwayeleni kwakhe, inxalenye yembewu yawa ecaleni kwendlela, zeza iintaka zayidla zayigqiba. 5 Ezinye zawa ezindaweni ezinamatye, apho zazingenamhlaba mninzi; zahluma kwaoko, ngenxa yokuba zazingenabunzulu bamhlaba; 6 Kwathi ekuphumeni kwelanga, zatsha, zaza ngenxa yokuba zazingenangcambu, zoma. 7 Ezinye zawela phakathi kwameva, zaza iingca zakhula, zayiminxa. 8 Ezinye ke zawela emhlabeni omhle, zavelisa iziqhamo, ezinye zavelisa ikhulu, ezinye zavelisa amashumi amathandathu, ezinye zavelisa amashumi amathathu. 9 Lowo uneendlebe zokuva, makeve. 10 Beza abafundi bakhe, bathi kuye, Kungani na ukuba uthethe kubo ngemizekeliso? 11 Waphendula wathi kubo, Kungokuba ninikwe nina ukuzazi iimfihlelo zobukumkani bamazulu, kodwa bona abakunikwanga. 12 Kuba nabani na onako, uya kunikwa, aze abe nentabalala; kodwa nabani na ongenako, uya kuhluthwa kwanoko anako. 13 Ngenxa yoko ndithetha nabo ngemizekeliso; ngokuba bebona ababoni; besiva bengeva, bengaqondi. 14 Kuzaliseka kubo isiprofeto sikaIsaya esithi, Ukuva niya kuva, ningaqondi; nokubona niya kubona, ningaqondi; 15 Kuba intliziyo yaba bantu ilukhuni, neendlebe zabo zithe nkqi, namehlo abo bawacimile; hleze babone ngamehlo abo, beve ngeendlebe zabo, baqonde ngeentliziyo zabo, babuye, ndibaphilise. 16 Kodwa anoyolo amehlo enu, ngokuba ebona; neendlebe zenu, ngokuba ziyeva.
