Luka 16:1-31 OCCL

[1] Yesu anawuza ophunzira ake kuti, “Panali munthu wina wachuma amene kapitawo wake anzake anamuneneza kuti amawononga chuma chakecho. [2] Choncho anamuyitana ndi kumufunsa kuti, ‘Kodi nʼchiyani chimene ndikumva za iwe? Pereka tsatanetsatane wa ntchito yako, pakuti supitirizanso kukhala kapitawo wanga.’ [3] “Kapitawoyo analingalira kuti, ‘Kodi tsopano ndidzachita chiyani? Bwana wanga andichotsa ntchito. Ine ndilibe mphamvu zokwanira zolimira, komanso ine ndimachita manyazi kupempha. [4] Ine ndikudziwa chimene ndidzachita kotero kuti, pamene ntchito yanga yatha pano, anthu adzandilandire mʼnyumba zawo.’ [5] “Choncho iye anayitana aliyense amene anali ndi ngongole kwa bwana wake. Iye anafunsa woyamba, ‘Kodi uli ndi ngongole yotani kwa bwana wanga?’ [6] “Iye anayankha kuti, ‘Migolo yamafuta a olivi 800.’ “Kapitawo uja anamuwuza iye, ‘Tenga pamene unalemba ngongole yakoyo, khala pansi msanga ndipo lemba kuti ndi migolo 400.’ [7] “Kenaka iye anafunsa wachiwiri kuti, ‘Nanga iwe uli ndi ngongole yotani?’ “Iye ayankha kuti madengu a tirigu 1,000. “Iye anati, ‘Tenga pamene unalemba ngongole yakoyo ndipo ulembepo 800.’ [8] “Bwana anayamikira kapitawo wosakhulupirikayo popeza anachita mochenjera. Pakuti anthu a dziko lino lapansi ndi ochenjera kwambiri akamachita zinthu ndi anthu ofanana nawo kuposa anthu a kuwunika. [9] Ine ndikukuwuzani inu, gwiritsani ntchito chuma cha dziko lapansi kuti mudzipezere nokha abwenzi, kuti pamene chatha mudzalandiridwe mʼmalo okhala amuyaya. [10] “Amene akhulupirika pa zinthu zochepa akhoza kukhulupirikanso pa zinthu zambiri, ndipo amene sakhulupirika pa zinthu zochepa adzakhala wosakhulupirika pa zinthu zambiri. [11] Ndipo ngati simunakhale okhulupirika pogwiritsa ntchito chuma cha dziko lapansi, ndani amene adzakusungitsani chuma chenicheni? [12] Ndipo ngati simunakhale okhulupirika ndi chuma cha mwini wake, ndani amene adzakupatsani katundu wanuwanu? [13] “Palibe wantchito amene angatumikire mabwana awiri. Mwina iye adzadana ndi wina ndi kukonda winayo, kapena adzakhala wodzipereka kwa wina ndi kumunyoza winayo. Inu simungathe kutumikira Mulungu komanso ndalama nthawi imodzi.” [14] Afarisi amene ankakonda ndalama atamva zimenezi anamuseka Yesu. [15] Yesu anawawuza kuti, “Inu ndi amene mumadzilungamitsa nokha pamaso pa anthu, koma Mulungu amadziwa mitima yanu. Zinthu zimene anthu amaziyesa zopambana, ndi zonyansa pamaso pa Mulungu. [16] “Malamulo ndi Aneneri zinagwira ntchito mpaka nthawi ya Yohane. Kuyambira nthawi imeneyo, Uthenga Wabwino wa ufumu wa Mulungu ukulalikidwa, ndipo aliyense akuyesetsa mwamphamvu kuti alowemo. [17] Nʼkwapafupi kuti kumwamba ndi dziko lapansi zichoke kulekana ndi kuti kalemba kakangʼono kachoke mʼMalamulo. [18] “Aliyense amene asiya mkazi wake ndi kukakwatira mkazi wina akuchita chigololo, ndipo mwamuna amene akwatira mkazi wosiyidwayo akuchitanso chigololo.” [19] “Panali munthu wachuma amene ankavala zovala zofiirira za mtengowapatali ndipo ankakhala moyo wachisangalalo tsiku lililonse. [20] Pa khomo la mpanda wake ankagonekapo munthu wopempha wotchedwa Lazaro, wazilonda thupi lonse [21] ndipo ankafunitsitsa atadya zomwe zinkagwa pansi kuchokera pamene munthu wolemerayo amadyerapo. Agalu ankabweranso ndi kumanyambita zilonda zake. [22] “Nthawi inafika imene wopemphayo anamwalira ndipo angelo anamunyamula nakamuyika mʼmanja mwa Abrahamu. Munthu wolemerayo anamwaliranso ndipo anayikidwa mʼmanda. [23] Ali mʼgehena kuzunzika, anakweza maso ake ndipo anaona Abrahamu ali ndi Lazaro pambali pake. [24] Ndipo anafuwula kwa iye kuti, ‘Abambo Abrahamu, mundimvere chisoni ine ndipo mutumeni Lazaroyo kuti aviyike msonga ya chala chake mʼmadzi kuti aziziritse lilime langa, chifukwa ndikumva ululu mʼmoto muno.’ [25] “Koma Abrahamu anayankha kuti, ‘Mwanawe kumbukira kuti nthawi yamoyo wako unalandira zinthu zako zabwino, pamene Lazaro analandira zinthu zoyipa, koma tsopano akusangalatsidwa kuno ndipo iwe uli mʼmazunzo. [26] Ndipo kuwonjezera pa zonsezi, pakati pa inu ndi ife pali chiphompho chachikulu chimene chinayikidwa, kotero kuti amene akufuna kubwera kumeneko sangathe, kapena palibe amene angawoloke kuchokera kumeneko kudzafika kuno.’ [27] “Iye anayankha kuti, ‘Ndipo ndikupemphani inu, abambo, mutumeni Lazaro ku nyumba ya abambo anga, [28] pakuti ine ndili ndi abale asanu. Lolani iye akawachenjeze kotero kuti asadzabwere kumalo ano amazunzo.’ [29] “Abrahamu anayankha kuti, ‘Ali ndi Mose ndi Aneneri; aleke amvere iwo.’ [30] “Iye anati, ‘Ayi, bambo Abrahamu, koma ngati wina ochokera kwa akufa adzapita kwa iwo, adzatembenuka mtima.’ [31] “Anati kwa iye, ‘Ngati iwo samvera Mose ndi Aneneri, sadzakhulupirira ngakhale wina atauka kwa akufa.’ ”
