Luka 20
1 Lyuŵa limo Che Yesu paŵaliji nkwajiganya ŵandu pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu ni kulalichila Ngani Jambone, ŵaiche achakulu ŵambopesi ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ga che Musa ni achachekulu
Now it happened on one of those days, as He was teaching and evangelizing the people in the temple, that the priests and scribes came to Him with the elders
2 ŵammusisye, “Ntusalile! Ana kwa ulamusi chi nkupanganya yeleyi? Sooni ŵaani ŵampele mmwe ulamusi u?”
and addressed Him, saying, “Tell us by what authority you are doing these things; or who is he who gave you this authority?”
3 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Nomwe ŵakwe chinammusye liusyo, musalile,
But in answer He said to them: “I also will ask you one thing; yes, tell me:
4 ana ulamusi u che Yohana wa kubatisya watyochele kwa Akunnungu pane kwa ŵandu?”
the baptism of John—was it from heaven or from men?”
5 Nambo ŵanyawo ŵaŵechetesyene achitiji yeleyi, “Twajilaga watyochele kwa Akunnungu, chatuusye, ‘Ligongo chi nganimunkulupilila jwelejo?’
So they reasoned among themselves, saying: “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Why did you not believe him?’
6 Ni twajilaga watyochele kwa ŵandu, ŵandu wose ŵa chatuulaje ni maganga, pakuŵa ŵandu wose akukulupilila kuti che Yohana ŵaliji jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu.”
But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”
7 Nipele ŵajanjile, “Ngatukumanyilila kwautyochele ulamusi wo.”
So they answered that they did not know where it was from.
8 Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵanyawo, “None jwakwe ngangunsalila ngutenda yeleyi kwa ulamusi chi.”
And Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
9 Che Yesu ŵapundile kwatanjila ŵandu chitagu chati, “Mundu jumo ŵalimile ngunda wa misabibu ni ŵakodisisye ŵakulima, nipele ŵajawile ku chilambo chine ni ŵalonjele kweleko moŵa gamajinji.
Then He began to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard, leased it to farmers, and went away on a long journey.
10 Katema kamagungulo, mundu jo ŵantumile kapolo jwao ku ngunda wa misabibu kwa ŵakulima ŵala, kukujigala liunjili lyakwe lya magungulo. Nambo ŵakulima ŵala ŵamputile kapolo jo ni kummusya makono pe.
At the proper time he sent a slave to the farmers, that they might give him some of the fruit of the vineyard. But the farmers flogged him and sent him away empty-handed.
11 Nsyene ngunda jula ŵantumile kapolo jwine, nambo jwelejo nombe ni ŵamputile ni kuntendela ya chipongo ni kummusya makono pe.
Again he sent a different slave; so they flogged him also, treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty-handed.
12 Ŵantumile sooni jwaatatu, jwelejo nombe ŵammulesye ni kwajasila paasa ngunda.
And again he sent a third; but they wounded him also and threw him out.
13 Nipele nsyene ngunda wa misabibu jula ŵaganisisye achitiji, ‘Chindende ichichi? Chinampeleche mwanangu jwajika jwakunonyelwa pane chakanchimbichisye jwelejo.’
Then the owner of the vineyard said: ‘What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; hopefully they will respect him when they see him.’
14 Nambo ŵakulima ŵala paŵammweni, ŵaŵechetesyene jwine ni jwine, achitiji, ‘Aju ni juchapochele iŵagosele, twende tummulaje kuti indu iŵagosele tujigale uwe.’
But when the farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying: ‘This is the heir. Come, let's kill him, so that the inheritance may become ours.’
15 Nipele, ŵankopwesye paasa ngunda wa misabibu ula ni kummulaga.” Nipele Che Yesu ŵausisye, “Ana nsyene ngunda wo, chachatenda ichichi ŵakulima wo?”
So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What therefore will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
16 “Chaiche ni kwaulaga ŵakulima wo ni kwapa ŵakulima ŵane ngunda wa misabibu wo.” Ŵandu paŵagapilikene gele maloŵe ni ŵatite, “Ngwamba! Gakatukopochela namose kanandi!”
He will come and destroy those farmers and give the vineyard to others.” Having heard it they said, “May it never be!”
17 Nambo Che Yesu ŵalolite ŵanyawo ni kwausya, “Ana aga Malembelo ga Akunnungu ga gana malumbo chi? Gagakuti, ‘Liganga lyalikanile ŵakutaŵa, sambano lilyolyo lili lyetendekwe liganga lyekulungwa lyakwimichila nyuumba!’
Then He looked directly at them and said: “What then is this that is written: ‘A stone that the builders rejected, the same became the cornerstone’?
18 Mundu jwalijose juchalikuŵale pa liganga lyo, chakasiche ipande ni lyangwililaga mundu jwalijose chilinsyaje.”
Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, but on whomever it should fall—it will crush him!”
19 Ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ga Akunnungu ni achakulu ŵambopesi ŵasakaga kunkamula Che Yesu ndaŵi jo, pakuŵa ŵaimanyilile kuti chitagu chi chaliji nkwagamba ŵanyawo nambo ŵaajogwepe ŵandu.
The chief priests and the scribes wanted to lay hands on Him right then, but they were afraid —they knew He had spoken this parable against them.
20 Ŵaliji nkwakuilichisya uchenene nipele, ŵalajisye ŵakuuchilichisya ŵaŵalitendaga ŵambone. Ŵatesile yele kuti ŵatanjisye Che Yesu kwa maloŵe gao ni kwajausya pa ulamusi wa jwankulu jwa chilambo.
Keeping a close watch on Him, they sent spies, who pretended to be innocent, so that they might latch on to something He said, so as to hand Him over to the power and the authority of the governor.
21 Ŵakuuchilichisya wo, ŵammusisye Che Yesu achitiji, “Jwakwiganya, tukumanyilila kuti nkusala ni kwiganya maloŵe ga isyene ni tukumanyilila kuti nganinkola lusagu kwa mundu jwalijose nambo nkwiganya yakuti matame mpela ila Akunnungu yakutulajichisya.
So they questioned Him, saying: “Teacher, we know that you speak and teach what is right, and you do not show favoritism but teach the way of God in truth.
22 Ntusalile, ana ili yambone kwausya nsongo kwa Mwenye jwa ku Loma pane ngwamba?”
Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
23 Nambo Che Yesu ŵachimanyilile chitanji chao ni ŵaasalile kuti,
But He perceived their craftiness and said to them: “Why are you testing me?
24 “Muunosye mbiya. Ni ŵausisye kuti ana ku meeso ku ni liina li lyacheni?” Nombewo ŵajanjile, “Ja mwenye jwa ku Loma.”
Show me a denarius—whose image and inscription does it have?” In answer they said, “Caesar's.”
25 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Nipele mwape Mwenye jwa ku Loma yaili yao ni Akunnungu yaili yao.”
So He said to them, “Then render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.”
26 Nganakombola kwakamula atamuno kwa liloŵe lililyose paujo pa ŵandu nambo ŵasimosile kwanga kwao ni ŵamyalele.
They were unable to latch on to His word in front of the people; and marveling at His answer they kept silent.
27 Masadukayo ŵampepe ŵakutinji, ngapagwa kusyuka kwa ŵandu ŵawile ŵanjaulile Che Yesu ni kwausya,
Then some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is a resurrection, approached and questioned Him,
28 “Jwakwiganya, che Musa ŵatulembele kuti iŵaga chawe nkulugwe mundu jumo ni kunleka ŵankwakwe pangali ŵanache, mpwakwe ajinjile majumba kuti akombole kummelechela nkulugwe jo ŵanache.
saying: “Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man's married brother dies childless, then his brother should take the widow and produce offspring for his brother.
29 Nipele, ŵapali achachanda saba uŵaŵelekwe ni mundu jumo. Jwaandanda ŵalombele jwankongwe ni ŵawile pangaleka mwanache.
Now there were seven brothers: the first took a wife and died childless;
30 Ni jwaaŵili ŵajinjile majumba nombejo ŵawile pangaleka mwanache,
then the second took the widow and he died childless;
31 ni jwaatatu ŵajinjile majumba, iyoyo peyo wose saba ŵamasile kuwa pangaleka ŵanache.
then the third took her, in fact all seven in sequence—they all died childless.
32 Kumbesi jwankongwe jula nombe ŵawile.
Finally, last of all, the woman died also.
33 Sambano, ana pakumala kusyuka ŵawe jwankongwe jo chachiŵa jwankongwe jwa ŵaani? Pakuŵa wose saba ŵala ŵanlombele jwelejo.”
Therefore, in the resurrection, whose wife will she be, since all seven had her?”
So in answer Jesus said to them: “The people of this age marry and are given in marriage; (aiōn g165)
35 nambo uchaŵalanjikwe kuti akuŵajilwa kusyuswa ni kutama mu katema kakakwika ngasalombela atamuno kulombwa. (aiōn g165)
but those who are considered worthy to attain to that age, to the resurrection from among the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
36 Usyene ukuti ngaikomboleka kuwa sooni, ligongo chachiŵa mpela achikatumetume ŵa kwinani ŵa Akunnungu nombewo chaaŵe ŵanache ŵa Akunnungu, pakuŵa asyuchile.
Because they cannot die anymore, being like angels—they are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
37 Namose che Musa ŵalosisye pangasisa kuti ŵawile chachisyuswa. Mmalembelo gakwe gagalembekwe nkati chisukutu chichakolelaga mooto, ŵelewo akwatanga Ambuje kuti ali Akunnungu ŵa che Iblahimu ni Akunnungu ŵa che Isaka ni Akunnungu ŵa che Yakobo.
But that the dead are raised, Moses indeed revealed about the Bush when he recorded: ‘The Lord, the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob.’
38 Ŵelewo nganaŵa Akunnungu ŵa ŵawile nambo ali Akunnungu ŵa ŵajumi, pakuŵa kwa ŵelewo wose akukola umi.”
So He is not the God of the dead, but of the living—to Him all are alive.”
39 Ŵakwiganya malajisyo ŵampepe ŵanjanjile, “Jwakwiganya, elo njanjile isyene.”
Then some of the scribes answered and said, “Teacher, you spoke well.”
40 Ŵanyawo nganalinga kummusya sooni liusyo line.
And they no longer dared to question Him further.
41 Che Yesu ŵausisye kuti, “Kwa chichi ŵandu akuti Kilisito Nkulupusyo ali wa uŵelesi u che Daudi?
Then He said to them: “How is it that they say that the Messiah is David's Son?
42 Che Daudi asyene akuŵecheta mmalembelo ga Sabuli, ‘Ambuje ŵaasalile Ambuje ŵangu, Ntame kundyo kwangu
Why David himself affirms in the book of Psalms, ‘The Lord said to my Lord: sit at my right hand
43 mpaka pachinaaŵiche ŵammagongo ŵenu paasi pa sajo syenu.’
until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.’
44 Nipele iŵaga che Daudi akwaŵilanga Kilisito Nkulupusyo ‘Ambuje,’ iŵele uli sooni aŵe uŵelesi u che Daudi?”
Since David calls Him ‘Lord’, how then is He his Son?”
45 Ŵandu wose paŵaliji aninkwapilikanila Che Yesu, ŵelewo ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao kuti,
Then, in the hearing of the people, He said to His disciples:
46 “Nlilolechesye ni ŵakwiganya malajisyo ŵakusaka kwendajenda ali awete minjilo jajileu. Ŵakunonyelwa akomasikwe kwakuchimbichikwa peuto pakuchingangana ŵandu achajinji ni ŵakutama mu itengu yakuchimbichika mmajumba ga kupopelela ni kutama mmauto gakuchimbichikwa pa chakulya.
“Beware of the scribes, who like to walk around in long robes, and love greetings in the marketplaces, and the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts;
47 Ŵakwasumula majumba achakongwe ŵawililwe ni achiŵankwawo ni kupopela mapopelo gamaleu kuti aloleche ŵambone paujo pa ŵandu. Kwalyele ligongo lyo chalamulikwe kwachikali nnope kupunda ŵane!”
who ‘devour’ widows' houses, and for a show make long prayers. These will receive more severe judgment.”
