WORD Research this...Luke 12
- 1 Wakati watu kwa maelfu walipokuwa wamekusanyika hata wakawa wanakanyagana, Yesu aliwaambia kwanza wanafunzi wake, "Jihadharini na chachu ya Mafarisayo, yaani unafiki.
- 2 Kila kilichofunikwa kitafunuliwa, kila kilichofichika kitafichuliwa.
- 3 Kwa hiyo, kila mliyosema gizani, watu watayasikia katika mwanga, na kila mliyonong'ona faraghani milango imefungwa, yatatangazwa juu ya nyumba.
- 4 "Nawaambieni ninyi rafiki zangu: msiwaogope wale wanaoua mwili, wasiweze kufanya kitu kingine zaidi.
- 5 Nitawaonyesheni yule ambaye ni lazima kumwogopa: mwogopeni yule ambaye baada ya kuua ana uwezo wa kumtupa mtu katika moto wa Jehanamu. Naam, ninawaambieni, mwogopeni huyo.
- 6 Inajulikana kwamba shomoro watano huuzwa kwa senti kumi, au sivyo? Lakini mbele ya Mungu hasahauliki hata mmoja.
- 7 Lakini hata nywele za vichwa vyenu zimehesabiwa zote. Msiogope, basi, ninyi mna thamani zaidi kuliko shomoro wengi!
- 8 "Nawaambieni kweli, kila mtu anayekiri hadharani kwamba yeye ni wangu, Mwana wa Mtu naye atakiri mbele ya malaika wa Mungu kwamba mtu huyo ni wake.
- 9 Lakini, mtu yeyote anayenikana mbele ya watu, naye atakanwa mbele ya malaika wa Mungu.
- 10 "Yeyote anayesema neno la kumpinga Mwana wa Mtu atasamehewa; lakini anayemkufuru Roho Mtakatifu hatasamehewa.
- 11 "Watakapowapeleka ninyi mbele ya masunagogi na mbele ya wakuu na watawala msiwe na wasiwasi juu ya jinsi mtakavyojitetea au jinsi mtakavyosema.
- 12 Kwa maana wakati huo Roho Mtakatifu atawafundisheni kile mnachopaswa kusema."
- 13 Mtu mmoja katika ule umati wa watu akamwambia, "Mwalimu, mwambie ndugu yangu tugawane urithi aliotuachia baba."
- 14 Yesu akamjibu, "Rafiki, ni nani aliyeniweka mimi mwamuzi au msuluhishi kati yenu?"
- 15 Basi, akawaambia wote, "Jihadharini na kila aina ya tamaa; maana uzima wa mtu hautegemei wingi wa vitu alivyo navyo."
- 16 Kisha akawaambia mfano: "Kulikuwa na tajiri mmoja ambaye shamba lake lilizaa mavuno mengi.
-
17 Tajiri huyo akafikiri moyoni mwake:
Nitafanyaje nami sina mahali pa kuhifadhia mavuno yangu? - 18 Nitafanya hivi: nitabomoa ghala zangu na kujenga kubwa zaidi, na humo nitahifadhi mavuno yangu yote na mali yangu.
-
19 Hapo nitaweza kuiambia roho yangu: sasa unayo akiba ya matumizi kwa miaka na miaka. Ponda mali, ule, unywe na kufurahi.
-
20 Lakini Mungu akamwambia:
Mpumbavu wewe; leo usiku roho yako itachukuliwa. Na vitu vile vyote ulivyojilundikia vitakuwa vya nani?" - 21 Yesu akamaliza kwa kusema "Ndivyo ilivyo kwa mtu anayejilundikia mali kwa ajili yake mwenyewe, lakini si tajiri mbele ya Mungu."
- 22 Kisha Yesu akawaambia wanafunzi wake, "Kwa sababu hiyo nawaambieni, msiwe na wasiwasi juu ya chakula mnachohitaji ili kuishi, wala juu ya mavazi mnayohitaji kwa ajili ya miili yenu.
- 23 Kwa sababu uzima ni bora kuliko chakula, na mwili ni bora kuliko mavazi.
- 24 Chukueni kwa mfano, kunguru: hawapandi, hawavuni wala hawana ghala yoyote. Hata hivyo, Mungu huwalisha. Ninyi mna thamani zaidi kuliko ndege!
- 25 Ni nani kati yenu kwa kuwa na wasiwasi anaweza kuongeza urefu wa maisha yake?
- 26 Basi, kama hamwezi kufanya jambo dogo kama hilo, kwa nini kuwa na wasiwasi juu ya yale mengine?
- 27 Angalieni maua jinsi yanavyomea. Hayafanyi kazi wala hayafumi. Hata hivyo, nawahakikishieni kwamba hata Solomoni mwenyewe na fahari zake zote hakupata kuvikwa vizuri kama ua mojawapo.
- 28 Lakini, kama Mungu hulivika vizuri jani la shambani ambalo leo liko na kesho latupwa motoni, je, hatawafanyia ninyi zaidi? Enyi watu wenye imani haba!
- 29 "Basi, msivurugike akili, mkihangaika daima juu ya mtakachokula au mtakachokunywa.
- 30 Kwa maana hayo yote ndiyo yanayohangaikiwa na watu wasiomjua Mungu. Baba yenu anajua kwamba mnahitaji vitu hivyo.
- 31 Shughulikieni kwanza Ufalme wa Mungu, na hayo yote mtapewa kwa ziada.
- 32 "Msiogope, enyi kundi dogo! Maana Baba yenu amependa kuwapeni Ufalme.
- 33 Uzeni mali yenu mkawape maskini misaada. Jifanyieni mifuko isiyochakaa, na jiwekeeni hazina mbinguni ambako haitapungua. Huko wezi hawakaribii, wala nondo hawaharibu.
- 34 Pale ilipo hazina yako, ndipo pia utakapokuwa moyo wako.
- 35 "Muwe tayari! Jifungeni mkanda kiunoni, na taa zenu ziwe zinawaka;
- 36 muwe kama watumishi wanaomngojea bwana wao arudi kutoka arusini, ili wamfungulie mara atakapobisha hodi.
- 37 Heri yao watumishi wale ambao bwana wao atakaporudi atawakuta wanakesha! Nawaambieni hakika, huyo bwana atajifunga mkanda kiunoni, atawaketisha mezani na kuwahudumia.
- 38 Heri yao watumishi hao ikiwa bwana wao atawakuta wanakesha hata ikiwa atarudi usiku wa manane au alfajiri.
- 39 Jueni kwamba, kama mwenye nyumba angejua saa ambayo mwizi atakuja, angekesha, wala hangeiacha nyumba yake ivunjwe.
- 40 Nanyi, kadhalika muwe tayari, maana Mwana wa Mtu atakuja saa msiyoitazamia."
- 41 Petro akamwambia, "Bwana, mfano huo ni kwa ajili yetu tu, au ni kwa ajili ya watu wote?"
- 42 Bwana akajibu, "Ni nani basi, mtumishi aliye mwaminifu na mwenye busara, ambaye bwana wake atamweka juu ya watumishi wake ili awape chakula wakati ufaao?
- 43 Heri yake mtumishi huyo ikiwa bwana wake atakaporudi atamkuta akifanya hivyo.
- 44 Hakika atampa madaraka juu ya mali yake yote.
-
45 Lakini, kama mtumishi huyo atafikiri moyoni mwake: na kusema:
Bwana wangu amekawia sana kurudi - 46 bwana wake atarudi siku asiyoitazamia na saa asiyoijua; atamkatilia mbali na kumweka fungu moja na wasioamini.
- 47 Mtumishi ambaye anajua matakwa ya bwana wake lakini hajiweki tayari kufanya anavyotakiwa, atapigwa sana.
- 48 Lakini yule afanyaye yanayostahili adhabu bila kujua, atapigwa kidogo. Aliyepewa vingi atatakiwa vingi; aliyekabidhiwa vingi zaidi atatakiwa kutoa vingi zaidi.
- 49 "Nimekuja kuwasha moto duniani, laiti ungekuwa umewaka tayari!
- 50 Ninao ubatizo ambao inanipasa niupokee; jinsi gani ninavyohangaika mpaka ukamilike!
- 51 Mnadhani nimekuja kuleta amani duniani? Hata kidogo; si amani bali utengano.
- 52 Na tangu sasa, jamaa ya watu watano itagawanyika; watatu dhidi ya wawili, na wawili dhidi ya watatu.
- 53 Baba atakuwa dhidi ya mwanawe, mwana dhidi ya baba yake; mama dhidi ya bintiye, binti dhidi ya mama yake; mama mkwe dhidi ya mke wa mwanawe na huyo dhidi ya mama mkwe wake."
-
54 Yesu akayaambia tena makundi ya watu, "Mnapoona mawingu yakitokea upande wa magharibi, mara mwasema:
Mvua itanyesha, na kweli hunyesha. -
55 Mnapoona upepo wa kusi unavuma, mwasema
Kutakuwa na hali ya joto - 56 Enyi wanafiki! Mnajua kutabiri hali ya hewa kwa kuangalia dunia na anga; kwa nini basi, hamwezi kujua maana ya nyakati hizi?
- 57 "Na kwa nini hamwezi kujiamulia wenyewe jambo jema la kufanya?
- 58 Maana kama mshtaki wako anakupeleka mahakamani, ingekuwa afadhali kwako kupatana naye mkiwa bado njiani, ili asije akakupeleka mbele ya hakimu, naye hakimu akakutoa kwa polisi, nao wakakutia ndani.
- 59 Hakika hutatoka huko nakwambia, mpaka utakapomaliza kulipa senti ya mwisho."

Basic Hash Usage Explained
At getBible, we've established a robust system to keep our API synchronized with the Crosswire project's modules. Let me explain how this integration works in simple terms.
We source our Bible text directly from the Crosswire modules. To monitor any updates, we generate "hash values" for each chapter, book, and translation. These hash values serve as unique identifiers that change only when the underlying content changes, thereby ensuring a tight integration between getBible and the Crosswire modules.
Every month, an automated process runs for approximately three hours. During this window, we fetch the latest Bible text from the Crosswire modules. Subsequently, we compare the new hash values and the text with the previous ones. Any detected changes trigger updates to both our official getBible hash repository and the Bible API for all affected translations. This system has been operating seamlessly for several years.
Once the updates are complete, any application utilizing our Bible API should monitor the hash values at the chapter, book, or translation level. Spotting a change in these values indicates that they should update their respective systems.
Hash values can change due to various reasons, including textual corrections like adding omitted verses, rectifying spelling errors, or addressing any discrepancies flagged by the publishers maintaining the modules at Crosswire.
The Crosswire initiative, also known as the SWORD Project, is the "source of truth" for getBible. Any modifications in the Crosswire modules get reflected in our API within days, ensuring our users access the most precise and current Bible text. We pledge to uphold this standard as long as getBible exists and our build scripts remain operational.
We're united in our mission to preserve the integrity and authenticity of the Bible text. If you have questions or require additional information, please use our support system. We're here to assist and will respond promptly.
Thank you for your understanding and for being an integral part of the getBible community.
