Matayo 16
1 Mafalisayo ni Masadukayo ŵaajaulile Che Yesu, ni kwa kwalinga ŵaŵendile ŵalosye chimanyisyo kutyochela kwinani.
The Pharisees and Sadducees came, and testing him, asked him to show them a sign from heaven.
2 Nambo Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Lyaikaga ligulo ŵanyamwe nkutinji, ‘Lelo chikulanguche pakuŵa kwiunde kuchejele!’
But he answered them, “When it is evening, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.’
3 Ni kuninkucha nkutinji, ‘Lelo mbungo chijipuje, pakuŵa kwiunde kuchejele sooni maunde gagumbele!’ Nipele, ŵanyamwe nkukombola kumanyilila upagwe wa liunde, nambo imanyisyo ya katema kano ngankukombola kuimanyilila.
In the morning, ‘It will be foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ Hypocrites! You know how to discern the appearance of the sky, but you cannot discern the signs of the times!
4 Uŵelesi wangalumbana ni wangali ni chikulupi ukusosa chimanyisyo, nambo ngaupegwa chimanyisyo ikaŵe chimanyisyo chi che Yona.” Nipele ŵalesile ni kwaula.
An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and there will be no sign given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah.” He left them and departed.
5 Ŵakulijiganya ŵao paŵamasile koombochela mbande jine ja litanda, ŵaliji aliŵalile kwigala mikate.
The disciples came to the other side and had forgotten to take bread.
6 Che Yesu ŵaasalile kuti, “Nlilolechesye ni nligose ni amila ja Mafalisayo ni Masadukayo!”
Jesus said to them, “Take heed and beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
7 Nambo ŵele ŵanyawo ŵaliji nkuusyana achinsyene pe achitiji, “Akuŵecheta yeleyo pakuŵa nganitujigala mikate.”
They reasoned among themselves, saying, “We brought no bread.”
8 Che Yesu ŵasimanyilile ng'anisyo syao ni kwasalila, “Ligongo chi nkuusyana mwachinsyene pe, ŵanyamwe ŵa chikulupi chachinandi kuti nganinjigala mikate?
Jesus, perceiving it, said, “Why do you reason among yourselves, you of little faith, because you have brought no bread?
9 Ana ngankumanyilila atamuno kukumbuchila panagaŵenye mikate tano jila, kwa ŵandu elufu tano ŵala? Ana itundu ilingwa ya mbakatika imwagumbesye?
Do not you yet perceive or remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up,
10 Pane mikate saba jila jiŵagaŵenye ŵandu elufu nne, ana itundu ilingwa ya mbakatika imwalokotenye?
or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
11 Uli, ngankumanyilila kuti nganingunguluchilaga mikate? Nambo nlilolechesye ni amila ja Mafalisayo ni Masadukayo!”
How is it that you do not perceive that I did not speak to you concerning bread? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
12 Pelepo ŵakulijiganya ŵaimanyilile kuti nganaŵecheta yankati amila ja mikate, nambo majiganyo ga Mafalisayo ni Masadukayo.
Then they understood that he did not tell them to beware of the yeast of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
13 Che Yesu paŵaiche mmusi wa Kaisalia Filipi, ŵausisye ŵakulijiganya ŵao kuti, “Ŵandu akuti Mwana jwa Mundu ali nduni?”
Now when Jesus came into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?”
14 Ŵajanjile, “Ŵane akuti che Yohana Ŵakubatisya ni ŵane akuti che Elia ni ŵane akuti che Yelemia, pane jumo jwao ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu.”
They said, “Some say John the Baptizer, some, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
15 Che Yesu ŵaausisye sooni, “Nombe ŵanyamwe nkuti une ndili nduni?”
He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”
16 Che Simoni Petulo ŵajanjile, “Alakwe ni Kilisito Jwakuwombola, Mwana jwa Akunnungu ŵaali ŵajumi.”
Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
17 Che Yesu ŵatite, “Nkwete upile mmwe che Simoni mwana ju che Yona, pakuŵa ngaŵa mundu jwammunukulile ngani jo, nambo Atati ŵangu ŵaali kwinani.
Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.
18 None ngunsalila, mmwe ni che Petulo ni pa lwele lwala lu chindandisye mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ni machili ga chiwa ngagaika kuukombola. (Hadēs g86)
I also tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my assembly, and the gates of Hades (Hadēs g86) will not prevail against it.
19 None chinampe iugulilo ya Umwenye wa kwinani, ni chachili chose chachinchitaŵe pa chilambo pano, chichiŵe chetaŵikwe kwinani ni chachili chose chachinchigopole pa chilambo pano, chichiŵe chegopolwe kwinani.”
I will give to you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven; and whatever you release on earth will have been released in heaven.”
20 Nipele ŵakanyisye kwa nnope ŵakulijiganya ŵao kuti akansalila mundu kuti ŵelewo ali Kilisito.
Then he commanded the disciples that they should tell no one that he was Jesus the Christ.
21 Chitandile ke katema ko Che Yesu ŵatandite kwalosya pangasisika ŵakulijiganya ŵao kuti yaŵajile kwaula ku Yelusalemu ni kweleko chalagaswe ni achachekulu ni ilongola ŵa achakulu ŵambopesi ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo. Nipele chachiulagwa ni pa lyuŵa lyaatatu chasyuche.
From that time, Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.
22 Pelepo che Petulo ŵaajigele Che Yesu pambali ni ŵatandite kwakalipila achitiji, “Ngwamba Ambuje! Ngagansimana gelego!”
Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, “Far be it from you, Lord! This will never be done to you.”
23 Nambo Che Yesu ŵagalauchile ni kwasalila che Petulo, “Ntyoche paujo pangu, Shetani! Mmwe nkusiŵila litala paujo pangu, pakuŵa ngankuganisya gagali ga Akunnungu, nambo ga ŵandu!”
But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me, for you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of men.”
24 Nipele, Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao, “Mundu jwakusaka kunguya, alikane nsyene, atwichile nsalaba wakwe, anguye une.
Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.
25 Pakuŵa, mundu jwalijose jwakusaka kuukulupusya umi wakwe, chaujase. Nambo mundu jwakuutyosya umi wakwe kwaligongo lyangu, chaukole sooni.
For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it.
26 Ana mundu chapate chichi akolaga chipanje cha pa chilambo, ali ajasile umi wakwe? Pane mundu chatyosye chichi pamalo pa umi wakwe?
For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life? Or what will a man give in exchange for his life?
27 Pakuŵa Mwana jwa Mundu chachiika mu ukulu wa Atatigwe pamo ni achikatumetume ŵakwe ŵa kwinani, pelepo chachinlipa jwalijose malinga ni masengo gao.
For the Son of Man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will render to everyone according to his deeds.
28 Ngunsalila isyene, apali ŵane mwa ŵanjimi apano ngaapasya chiwa akanaŵe kummona Mwana jwa Mundu achiikaga ali Mwenye.”
Most certainly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste of death until they see the Son of Man coming in his Kingdom.”
