< 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
And it came to pass, on one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and publishing the good tidings, that the priests and the scribes with the elders came upon him,
2 ŵammusisye, “Ntusalile! Ana kwa ulamusi chi nkupanganya yeleyi? Sooni ŵaani ŵampele mmwe ulamusi u?”
and spoke to him, saying, Tell us, by what authority doest thou these things? Or who is he that gave thee this authority?
3 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Nomwe ŵakwe chinammusye liusyo, musalile,
And he answering said to them, I also will ask you a question; and 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?’
And they reasoned among themselves, saying, If we say, From heaven, he will say, Why did ye 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.”
And they answered, that they did not know whence it was.
8 Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵanyawo, “None jwakwe ngangunsalila ngutenda yeleyi kwa ulamusi chi.”
And Jesus said to them, Neither do 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.
And he began to speak to the people this parable: A man planted a vineyard, and let it out to husbandmen, and went abroad for a long time.
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.
And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard; but the husbandmen beat 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.
And he sent still another servant; and they beat him also, and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty-handed.
12 Ŵantumile sooni jwaatatu, jwelejo nombe ŵammulesye ni kwajasila paasa ngunda.
And he went on to send a third; and they wounded him also, and cast him out.
13 Nipele nsyene ngunda wa misabibu jula ŵaganisisye achitiji, ‘Chindende ichichi? Chinampeleche mwanangu jwajika jwakunonyelwa pane chakanchimbichisye jwelejo.’
And the lord of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; perhaps they will respect 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 husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir; let us kill him, 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 cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What then will the lord 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 these husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others. And when they heard this, they said, God forbid!
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!’
But he, looking upon them, said, What then is this which is written, “The stone which the builders rejected, the same hath become the corner-stone”?
18 Mundu jwalijose juchalikuŵale pa liganga lyo, chakasiche ipande ni lyangwililaga mundu jwalijose chilinsyaje.”
Every one who falleth upon that stone will be broken; but on whomever it falleth, it will grind him to powder.
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.
And the scribes and the chief priests sought to lay hands on him in that hour, but they feared the people; for they knew that he spoke 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.
And they kept watch on him, and sent forth spies feigning themselves to be righteous men, that they might take hold of his words, in order to deliver him up to the civil power and to 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.
And they asked him, saying, Teacher, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly, and hast no regard to the person of men, but teachest the way of God truly.
22 Ntusalile, ana ili yambone kwausya nsongo kwa Mwenye jwa ku Loma pane ngwamba?”
Is it lawful for us to give tribute to Caesar, or not?
23 Nambo Che Yesu ŵachimanyilile chitanji chao ni ŵaasalile kuti,
But perceiving their craftiness, he said to them,
24 “Muunosye mbiya. Ni ŵausisye kuti ana ku meeso ku ni liina li lyacheni?” Nombewo ŵajanjile, “Ja mwenye jwa ku Loma.”
Show me a denary. Whose image and inscription hath it? And they answered and said, Caesar's.
25 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Nipele mwape Mwenye jwa ku Loma yaili yao ni Akunnungu yaili yao.”
And he said to them, Render then 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.
And they could not take hold of his words before the people; and marveling at his answer, they held their peace.
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, came to him, and asked 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, “If a man's brother die, having a wife, and the same die without children, his brother shall take his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.”
29 Nipele, ŵapali achachanda saba uŵaŵelekwe ni mundu jumo. Jwaandanda ŵalombele jwankongwe ni ŵawile pangaleka mwanache.
Now there were seven brothers; and the first took a wife and died childless.
30 Ni jwaaŵili ŵajinjile majumba nombejo ŵawile pangaleka mwanache,
And the second
31 ni jwaatatu ŵajinjile majumba, iyoyo peyo wose saba ŵamasile kuwa pangaleka ŵanache.
and the third took her; and in like manner also the seven left no children, and died.
32 Kumbesi jwankongwe jula nombe ŵawile.
At last the woman also died.
33 Sambano, ana pakumala kusyuka ŵawe jwankongwe jo chachiŵa jwankongwe jwa ŵaani? Pakuŵa wose saba ŵala ŵanlombele jwelejo.”
In the resurrection then, of which of them is the woman the wife? for the seven had her for a wife.
34 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Ŵandu ŵa moŵa gano, mchilambo mu akulombela ni kulombekwa, (aiōn g165)
And Jesus said to them, The sons of this world 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 they who have been accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from 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.
for they cannot die any more; for they are like the angels, and 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, even Moses hath shown at the Bush, when he calleth 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.”
Now he is not a God of the dead, but of the living; for all live to him.
39 Ŵakwiganya malajisyo ŵampepe ŵanjanjile, “Jwakwiganya, elo njanjile isyene.”
Then some of the scribes answering, said, Teacher, thou hast well said.
40 Ŵanyawo nganalinga kummusya sooni liusyo line.
For they dared no longer to ask him any question.
41 Che Yesu ŵausisye kuti, “Kwa chichi ŵandu akuti Kilisito Nkulupusyo ali wa uŵelesi u che Daudi?
And he said to them, How is it that men say that the Christ is David's son?
42 Che Daudi asyene akuŵecheta mmalembelo ga Sabuli, ‘Ambuje ŵaasalile Ambuje ŵangu, Ntame kundyo kwangu
For David himself saith in the book of Psalms, “The Lord said to my lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
43 mpaka pachinaaŵiche ŵammagongo ŵenu paasi pa sajo syenu.’
till I make thine enemies thy footstool.”
44 Nipele iŵaga che Daudi akwaŵilanga Kilisito Nkulupusyo ‘Ambuje,’ iŵele uli sooni aŵe uŵelesi u che Daudi?”
David then calleth him lord; and how is he his son?
45 Ŵandu wose paŵaliji aninkwapilikanila Che Yesu, ŵelewo ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao kuti,
And in the hearing of all 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 about in long robes, and love salutations in the markets, and the chief seats in the synagogues, and the first 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 pretence make long prayers. These will receive a far greater condemnation.
