Injili irivyoandikpwa ni

MARIKO

Tanga mbere

Muandishi wa chitabu hichi ni Johana Mariko ambaye kala ni msenangbwa wa Petero na msaidizi wa Paulo na Barinaba (soma Mahendo ga Mitume 12:12, 25; 13:4–5; 15:37–39; Baruwa yoandikirwa Akolosai 4:10; Baruwa ya Phiri yoandikirwa Timothi 4:11). Kpwenye Baruwaye ya Kpwandza, sura ya 5:13, Petero anamuiha “mwanangu wa chiroho.” Inaonekana kukala Injili irivyoandikpwa ni Mariko ni Injili ya kpwandza kuandikpwa, chahi wakati Mariko na Petero kala achisagala mudzi mkpwulu wa Rumi, ambako Petero waolagbwa.

Injili irivyoandikpwa ni Mariko ni fupi kuriko injili zanjina. Ni chitabu chinachosemurira gara arigohenda Jesu, hasa vilinje arivyohenda, na vira arivyo na uwezo wa Mlungu wa kuokola atu. Chitabu hichi chinaonyesa kukala Jesu anaweza kuphoza makongo, kutuluza pepho na kuswamehe dambi, yani kutivya atu aphahe uzima wa kare na kare. Huchisoma chitabu hichi hunaona kukala Jesu ariphoandza kaziye tu, wahenda kare vilinje; ariphotsambula anafundzie a ne a kpwandza waphoza akongo na kutuluza pepho (1:16–28). Gosi arigohenda Jesu ganaonyesa kukala wagahenda kpwa uwezo wa Mlungu.

Msitari muhimu ni 10:45 ambapho Jesu anaeleza kaziye, “Mana mimi, Mutu Yela Mlunguni, sedzere kuhenderwa, ela nákpwedza kuhendera na kulavya maisha gangu ili gakale maripho ga kukombola atu anji.”

Hivi ni dza atu asikirao neno, 19ela mambo ga dunia, na tamaa za mali na mambo ganjina nkpwedzalinga-linga rira neno hata rikakala tarivyala. 20Ela mbeyu zogbwa mtsanga wa nguvu, ni mfwano wa atu asikirao neno chisha akariphokera. Nao nkuvyala matunda, dza viratu mbeyu vyovyala masuche ga tembe mirongo mihahu, ganjina mirongo sita, na ganjina gana.”

Ela asiyehumira chitu chidide aricho nacho, hata chicho chindahalwa.”

Mfwano wa mbeyu ikulavyo

26Jesu waambira ndarira yanjina achiamba, “Hino ni ndarira kuhusu ufalume wa Mlungu ndivyokala. Mutu nkukumbira mbeyu, 27alafu achaenderera na shuulize. Usiku na mutsi, dzagbwe mutu arere hebu a matso, mbeyu nkumera na kukula bila iye kumanya higo gahendekadze. 28Mana mtsanga nkuhenda mbeyu ikamera, ikatuluza chikodza kpwandza, alafuye ikakula, ikatuluza suche, chisha mwisho suche rikahenda tembe. 294:29 Joeli 3:13Mavuno gachiphera, ye mkurima nkuphiya na rumure achatsenga mana mavuno ga tayari.”

(Mathayo 21:33–46; Luka 20:9–19)

112:1 Isaya 5:1–2Chisha Jesu wahumira ndarira kugomba na hara vilongozi a Chiyahudi. Achiambira, “Kpwakala na mutu mmwenga yephanda mizabibu mwakpwe mundani. Achiizungulusira lichigo, achitsimba phatu pha kuminyira zabibu, na piya achidzenga uringo. Chisha hura munda achiukodishira akurima, naye mwenye achiphiya tsi yanjina. 2Wakati wa kuvuna zabibu uriphofika, yuya mchina-munda wahuma mtumishiwe aphiye kpwa hara akurima ariokodisha mundawe, ili akahewe fungure ra mavuno. 3Hara ariokodi achimgbwira yuya mtumishi, achimpiga, na achimuuyiza mikono mihuphu. 4Alafu mchina-munda wahuma mtumishi wanjina. Nao hara ariokodisha hura munda, ampiga, achimlumiza chitswa na achimuhenda mambo ga waibu. 5Chisha, mchina-munda wahuma mtumishi wanjina ambaye amuolaga, na tsona achiagayisa anjina dza vivyo, kuapiga na anjina kuaolaga.

6“Sambi wasala na mutu mmwenga bahi; mutu hiye kala ni mwanawe ammendzaye sana. Phahi wamuhuma kpwa hara akurima, achifikiri achiamba, ‘Hakika hiyu andamuishimu, mana ni mwanangu.’ 7Ela hara akurima aambirana, ‘Hiyu ni mwanawe ndiyemrisi, phahi nahumuolageni ili huno munda ukale wehu.’ 8Phahi amgbwira, achimuolaga, na achimtsupha kondze ya hura munda wa mizabibu.

9“Dze! Ye mchina-munda achedza, andahendadze? Andakpwedzaaolage hara akurima, na hura munda aukodishe akurima anjina. 1012:10 Zaburi 118:22–23Hakika mnamanya Maandiko higa ga Mlungu gaambago:

Jesu anajibu swali kuhusu kuripha kodi

(Mathayo 22:15–22; Luka 20:20–26)

13Mafarisayo anjina, na atu a chikundi cha Herode, ahumwa ni vilongozi a Chiyahudi akamuuze Jesu maswali kumhega achili. 14Amuuza, “Mwalimu, hunamanya kukala uwe u mutu muaminifu, kulunga maoni ga atu mana cheo si chochosi kpwako. Tsona unafundza kpweli kuhusu Mlungu alagizago. Dze, shariya zehu zinahuruhusu kuripha kodi kpwa Kaisari, mtawala wa Chirumi? Huriphe hebu husiriphe?”12:14 Muhego wao wakala hinyu: ichikala angejibu ndiyo, angevundza shariya za Chiyahudi ambazo zinakahaza kuripha kodi kpwa atu asiokala Ayahudi. Angerema kukala atu asiriphe kodi, atu a chikundi cha Herode angephaha nafwasi ya kumshitaki kpwa mkpwulu wa Chirumi, mana chikundi hicho kala chinaunga mkpwono utawala wa Chirumi.15Ela Jesu wamanya lengo rao ra kpweli, achiamba, “Mbona munanipima achili? Hebu, nireherani pesa ya Chirumi, nami nindakuambirani.” 16Ariphomupha hira pesa, Jesu achiuza, “Sura na dzina ni ra ani?” Nao achimuamba, “Ni vya Kaisari.” 17Ndipho achiaambira, “Phahi, vya Kaisari mupheni Kaisari, na vya Mlungu, mupheni Mlungu.” Jibu hiri raangalaza hara atu.

Jesu anauzwa kuhusu atu kufufulwa

(Mathayo 22:23–33; Luka 20:27–40)

1812:18 Mahendo 23:8Siku mwenga Jesu watsolokerwa ni Masadukayo anjina. Nao Masadukayo ni kundi ra Ayahudi asioamini kukala atu achifwa andafufuka. Phahi achimuamba, 1912:19 Kumbukumbu 25:5“Mwalimu, Musa wahuandikira kpwenye Shariya kukala, mutu achifwa na achikala karichire mwana, nduguye ni lazima ahale ufwa hiye gungu, na amvyarire ana yuya mufwa. 20Hipho kare kpwahenda ndugu sabaa. Wa mwandzo walóla mchetu, na ariphofwa karichire ana. 21Mdidewe achihala ufwa yuya gungu, naye achifwa bila kuricha ana. Dzambo hiro rakala vivyo na ndugu wa hahu. 22Osi sabaa alóla hiyu gungu ela afwa osi bila kuricha mwana. Mwisho, yuya mchetu naye piya wafwa. 23Dze, siku ndiphofufulwa atu, yuya mchetu andakala mkpwaza ani? Mana ndugu osi sabaa amlóla.”

24Ela Jesu waambira, “Makosa genu nkukala tammanya Maandiko wala uwezo wa Mlungu. 25Atu ndiphofufuka andakala dza malaika hiko mlunguni ambao taalóla wala taalólwa. 2612:26 Kutsama 3:6Mwasoma vitabu vya Musa ela tamdzangbwemanya kukala atu andafufulwa! Seemu ihusuyo chira chitsaka chokala chinaaka moho, Mlungu wamuamba Musa, ‘Mimi ni Mlungu wa Burahimu, wa Isaka na wa Jakobo.’12:26 Ndani ya Chitabu cha Kutsama 3:6 na 3:15, Mlungu wamuambira Musa maneno higa miaka minji ambapho Burahimu, Isaka na Jakobo kala akafwa kare.27Kpwa hivyo, iye ni Mlungu wa atu hinyo dzagbwe afwa kare. Higa ganaonyesa kukala afwadzi kpwakpwe achere moyo. Mwimwi Masadukayo munakosera sana.”

Shariya muhimu

(Mathayo 22:34–40; Luka 10:25–28)

28Mwalimu mmwenga wa Shariya watsoloka na achisikira Jesu na Masadukayo anashindana kuhusu mambo ga kufufulwa. Ariphoona Jesu akaajibu vinono, wadzituluza, achimuuza, “Kulengana na shariya zosi za Mlungu ni iphi ya muhimu kuriko zosi?” 2912:29 Kumbukumbu 6:4–5Jesu wajibu achiamba, “Ya muhimu zaidi ni hino: ‘Phundzani mwimwi Aiziraeli! Mwenyezi Mlungu wehu, Mwenyezi Mlungu ni mmwenga. 30Mmendzeni Mwenyezi Mlungu, Mlungu wenu na mioyo yenu yosi, na roho zenu zosi, na achili zenu zosi na mkpwotse wenu wosi.’ 3112:31 Alawi 19:18Na ya phiri inaamba, ‘Mmendze myao dza vyo udzimendzavyo mwenye.’ Takuna shariya muhimu zaidi kuriko hizi.”

3212:32 Kumbukumbu 4:35Yuya mwalimu wa Shariya wamuamba Jesu, “Mwalimu u sawa, ukagomba kpweli kuamba Mlungu ni mmwenga, wala takuna wanjina isiphokala iye. 3312:33 Kumbukumbu 6:5; Hosea 6:6Kpwa kpweli ni lazima mutu amendze Mlungu na moyowe wosi, na rohoye yosi, na achilize zosi na mkpwotsewe wosi, na umendze myao dza vyo udzimendzavyo mwenye. Na kulunga mambo higa ni muhimu zaidi kuriko kulavya sadaka zosi za nyama na za kuocha nyama mzima kama hutakpwavyo ni Shariya.”

3412:34 Luka 10:25–28Jesu ariphoona kukala hiyu mutu akagombato, wamuamba, “Uwe kukure na ufalume wa Mlungu.” Bada ya higo atu osi aogopha kumuuza swali rorosi.

Swali dzulu ya Yetsambulwa ni Mlungu kuokola atu

(Mathayo 22:41–46; Luka 20:41–44)

35Jesu ariphokala anafundza muhalani, muhala wa Nyumba ya Kuvoya Mlungu, wauza, “Kpwani alimu a Shariya a sawa achiamba Masihi12:35 Yani Masihi. ni chivyazi cha Mfalume Daudi? 3612:36 Zaburi 110:1Ambapho Daudi mwenye walongozwa ni Roho Mtakatifu achiamba:

‘Mwenyezi Mlungu wamuamba Bwana wangu,12:36 Bwana wangu manage ni Masihi (soma Chitabu cha Zaburi 110:1).

37“Ichikala Daudi anamuiha hiye mutu, ‘Bwana wangu,’ vinakaladze akale ni chivyaziche?” Naro kundi kulu ra atu ramphundzato sana.

Jesu anademurira alimu a Shariya

(Mathayo 23:1–36; Luka 11:39–52; 20:45–47)

38Wakati Jesu kala anafundza waamba, “Dzimanyirireni na alimu a Shariya! Mana nkumendza kuvwala kandzu nyire na kutsupa-tsupa hiko cheteni ili alamuswe na ishima mbere za atu. 39Piya anamendza kusagala vihi vya mbere-mbere masinagogini na karamuni. 40Ela nkuafuta magungu vitu vyao, na kudzihenda kala ni atu anono kpwa kuvoya mavoyo mare! Siku ya mwisho atu dza hinyo andaphaha adabu kali sana.”

Gungu analavya sadaka

(Luka 21:1–4)

41Jesu ariphokala ndani ya Nyumba ya Kuvoya Mlungu, wasagala phephi na sanduku ra kuikira pesa za sadaka. Achikala analola kundi kulu ra atu atiyavyo pesa mura sandukuni. Matajiri anji alavya pesa nyinji. 42Chisha phachedza mayo mmwenga gungu mgbwayi, achilavya senti mbiri. 43Phahi Jesu achiaambira anafundzie, “Lolani hiyu mayo. Nakuambirani kpweli, hiyu gungu mchiya akatiya pesa nyinji kuriko anjina osi. 44Mana anjina osi akatiya kulengana na fwaida ya mali arizo nazo. Ela hiyu mayo, dzagbwe ni mchiya, akalavya pesa zosi achizokala nazo, hata vivi kana chitu cha kumterya kuishi.”

Mateso ndigokpwedza

(Mathayo 24:1–22; Luka 21:5–24)

1Jesu ariphokala anatuluka kula Nyumba ya Kuvoya Mlungu, mwanafundziwe mmwenga wamuamba, “Mwalimu, lola vira higa mawe garivyo manono na dzengo ririvyo nono ra ajabu!” 2Naye achimuamba, “Dze, unagaona gara madzengo makulu? Taphana hata dziwe mwenga ndirosala dzulu ya ranjina, chila chitu chindabomolwa.”

3Badaye aphiya Mwango wa Mizaituni, ambao unalolana na Nyumba ya Kuvoya Mlungu. Wakati Jesu kala asegere hiko, Petero, Jakobo, Johana na Anderea amlunga achikala naye machiyao, achimuuza, 4“Huambire mambo higo gandakala rini? Ni dalili yani ndiyoonyesa kukala mambo higa gosi ga phephi gahendeka?” 5Naye Jesu achiaambira, “Dzimanyirireni sedze mkachengbwa. 6Mana kundakpwedza anji ahumire dzina rangu, nao andachenga atu anji, na kuamba, ‘Mimi ndiye iye Masihi!’13:6 Yani Masihi. (Misitari 21 na 22.)7Na mchisikira habari za viha na ndziyendziye za viha, msitishirwe. Mana mambo higa ni lazima gakale, ela mwisho wa dunia undakala taudzangbwe. 8Tsi mwenga indapigana na tsi yanjina, mfalume mmwenga andapigana na mfalume wanjina. Dunia indakala ichisumba kpwatu kunji na kundakala na ndzala. Mambo higa ni dza viratu mwandzo wa utsungu wa mayo alondaye kudzivugula.

Kala Mlungu kahendere hivyo, takungesala mutu.”

21Jesu waenderera kugomba achiamba, “Siku hizo mutu achikuambirani, ‘Lolani, ye Masihi hiyu hipha!’ Au ‘Hiye hiko!’ Musimphundze. 22Mana kundazuka manabii a handzo na atu ambao andadziamba ni ye Masihi.
