Matayo 21
1 Che Yesu pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaŵandichile ku Yelusalemu, ni paŵaiche ku Besefage pachikwesya cha Miseituni, ŵatumile ŵakulijiganya ŵaŵili.
When they drew near to Jerusalem, and came to Bethphage, to the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent away two disciples,
2 Ŵaasalile, “Njaule kunsinda wauli mmbujo mwenu, ni kweleko chinkajisimane mbunda jajitaŵikwe ni mwanambunda pamo najo. Nkaagopole njise nawo kwangune.
saying to them, Go into the village over against you, and you will immediately find a donkey tied, and the colt with her: loosing, lead her to me.
3 Iŵaga chakammusye mundu ligongo lya kwagopola, nkajile, ‘Ambuje akusisaka,’ ni pangakaŵa chakannechele.”
And if any one may say any thing to you, tell him, that the Lord hath need of them; and immediately he will send them away.
4 Ali lyatendekwe kuti gamalile gaŵaŵechete jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu.
And all this took place, that the word spoken by the prophet might be fulfilled, saying,
5 “Mwasalile ŵandu ŵa musi wa Sayuni, Nnole, Mwenye jwenu akunnyichilila! Atulele, ni akwesile mbunda, ni mwanambunda, chinyama chachikujigala itutule.”
Say to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy King cometh, meek, and seated upon a donkey, even a colt, the progeny of the work-beast.
6 Ŵakulijiganya ŵala ŵajawile, ŵatesile mpela iŵatite pakusalilwa ni Che Yesu.
And the disciples, having gone and done as Jesus commanded them,
7 Ŵajiichenawo mbunda ni mwanambunda, ŵatandiche nguo syao pachanya pawo ni Che Yesu ŵatemi pachanya pakwe.
led the donkey, and the colt, and put their garments on them; and He sat on them.
8 Mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu watandiche nguo syao mwitala, ni ŵane ŵakatile nyambi sya mwana sya itela ni ŵatandiche mwitala.
A great multitude strewed their garments in the road: and others cut down the branches from the trees, and were strewing them in the road.
9 Mipingo ja ŵandu ŵaŵalongolele ni ŵaŵakuiye ŵanyanyisye achitiji, “Ajinichilwe Mwana ju che Daudi, Akole upile jwele jwakwika mu liina lya Ambuje! Ajinichilwe Akunnungu ŵaali kwinani!”
And the multitudes going forward, and following, continued to cry out, saying, Hosanna to the son of David: blessed is He that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest!
10 Che Yesu paŵajinjilaga ku Yelusalemu, ŵandu ŵa musi wose ŵaliji jugulijuguli. Ŵandu ŵaliji nkuusyana, “Ana aju ali nduni?”
And He having come into Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred, saying; Who is He?
11 Ŵandu mu mpingo ula ŵatite, “Ŵeleŵa ni Che Yesu, jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu kutyochela ku Nasaleti musi wa ku Galilaya.”
And the multitudes continued to say, He is the prophet Jesus, the one from Nazareth of Galilee.
12 Nipele, Che Yesu ŵajinjile mu lutenje lwa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu, ŵaaŵinjile ŵanawose uŵasumisyaga ni kusuma malonda pepala, ŵapitikwisye mesa sya ŵaŵasumanyaga mbiya, ni itengu yao ŵaŵasumisyaga nguunda.
And Jesus came into the temple of God, and cast out all the buying and selling in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money-exchangers, and the seats of those selling the doves;
13 Ŵaasalile, “Ilembekwe Mmalembelo ga Akunnungu, ‘Nyuumba jangu chijiŵilanjikwe nyuumba ja kupopelela.’ Nambo ŵanyamwe njitesile peuto pakulisisila ŵa wiyi.”
and He says to them, It has been written, My house shall be called a house of prayer: but you make it a den of thieves.
14 Ŵangalola ni ŵakulemala ŵanjaulile pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu, nombe Che Yesu ŵalamisye.
And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple: and He healed them.
15 Achakulu ŵambopesi ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo paŵaiweni indu yambone nnope iŵaitesile Che Yesu ni ŵanache ali nkunyanyisya pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu achitiji, “Ajinichilwe Mwana ju che Daudi,” ŵanyawo ŵatumbile.
And the chief priests and scribes seeing the wonderful things which He did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying; Hosanna to the son of David, were indignant,
16 Ŵausisye, “Uli ngankupilikana yakuti ŵanache?” Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Elo, ngupikana! Ana nganinsyome Maloŵe ga? ‘Kutyochela nkang'wa sya ŵanache achanandi ni ŵakonga, nlipatile lumbili lwemalilwe.’”
and said to Him, Do you hear what they are saying? And Jesus says to them, Yes: have you not read, That out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?
17 Nipele, ŵalesile, ŵakopweche mmusi ni kwaula ku Besania ni kugona kweleko.
And having left them, He went out of the city into Bethany, and there spent the night.
18 Kundaŵi, Che Yesu paŵaujaga kwaula ku Yelusalemu, jakwete sala.
And in the morning going into the city, He was hungry.
19 Ŵauweni ntini mungulugulu litala, ŵaujaulile, nambo nganachisimana chindu mwelemo, ŵausimene uli masamba pe. Ŵausalile, “Nkasogola isogosi sooni moŵa gose pangali mbesi!” Papopo nkuju wo wanyasile. (aiōn g165)
And seeing one fig-tree near the road, He went to it, and found nothing on it, except leaves only. And He says to it, Let no fruit ever be from thee; and immediately the fig-tree withered away. (aiōn g165)
20 Ŵakulijiganya paŵauweni, ŵasimosile, ŵaliusisye, “Ntini u ujumwile chinauli chitema kwantinyi?”
And the disciples seeing, were astonished, saying, How did the fig-tree immediately wither away?
21 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ngunsalila isyene, mwaŵaga ni chikulupi pangali lipamba lili lyose, chinkombole kupanganya ngaŵa yeleyo pe yaitendekwe mu chitela cha ntini, nambo atamuno mwachisalilaga achi chitumbi chi, ‘Ntupuche ni kuliponya mu bahali,’ chiitendekwe iyoyo.
And Jesus responding said to them, Truly I say unto you, if you may have faith, and doubt not, not only shall you do that of the fig-tree, but you shall say to this mountain, Be thou taken up and cast into the sea, and it will be done.
22 Mwakolaga chikulupi, chachilichose chachimmende nkupopela, chimpate.”
All things whatsoever you may ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive.
23 Che Yesu ŵajinjile pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu, ni kwiganya. Paŵajiganyaga, achakulu ŵa mbopesi ni achakulu ŵane ŵa ŵandu ŵausisye kuti, “Ana kwa ukombole chi nkutenda yele indu yi? Ŵaani ŵampele wele ukombole u?”
And the chief priests and elders of the people came to Him, while teaching, He having come into the temple, saying, By what authority are you doing these things? And who gave you this authority?
24 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “None chinammusye liusyo limo pe, mwanyangaga, nipele, none chinansalile kwa ukombole chi nguitenda indu yi.
And Jesus responding, said to them, I ask you also one word, which if you may speak to me, I also will tell you by what authority I am doing these things:
25 Uli ukombole u che Yohana wa kubatisya watyochele kwapi? Watyochele kwinani pane kwa ŵandu?” Nambo ŵaŵechetesyene achinsyene pe achitiji, “Twajilaga, ‘Watyosile kwinani,’ chatuusye, ‘Nambi kwachichi nganimunkulupilila?’
Whence was the baptism of John? from heaven or from men? And they reasoned among themselves, saying, If we may say, From heaven; He will say to us, Why then did you not believe on him?
26 Nambo twajilaga, ‘Watyochele kwa ŵandu,’ tukogopa mpingo wa ŵandu pakuŵa ŵanawose akwitichisya kuti che Yohana ali jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu.”
But if we may say, From men: we fear the multitude, for all hold John as a prophet.
27 Nipele, ŵajanjile, “Ngatukumanyilila!” Nombe Che Yesu ŵatite, “Atamuno une ngangunsalila ŵanyamwe kwa ukombole chi nguitenda indu yi.
And responding they said to Jesus, We do not know. He also said to them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.
28 “Ŵanyamwe nkuganisya uli? Mundu jumo ŵakwete achachanda ŵaŵili. Ŵantendele jwaandanda jo kuti, ‘Mwanangu, lelo njaule nkapanganye masengo mungunda wa sabibu.’
What seems to you? A man had two sons; and going to the first, he said, Child, go to-day, work in my vineyard.
29 Nchanda jo ŵajanjile, ‘Ngangusaka!’ Nambo kanyuma kakwe ŵapitikwiche ntima, ŵajawile kupanganya masengo.
And he responding said, I am not willing: but afterward, having regretted, he went.
30 Atati ŵala ŵanjaulile mwanagwe jwaaŵili jo ni kunsalila ilaila, nombe ŵajanjile ŵatite, ‘Elo, atati!’ Nambo nganajaula kumasengo.
And coming to the second, he spoke likewise. And he responding said, I, lord: and went not.
31 Ana jwapi jwa ŵele ŵaŵili wo jwatesile yakuisaka atatigwe?” Ŵajanjile, “Jwanchanda jwaandanda jo.” Che Yesu ŵatite, “Ngunsalila isyene, ŵakukumbikanya nsongo ni ŵakulaŵalaŵa chajinjile mu Umwenye wa Akunnungu nkanaŵe kwinjila.
Which one of the two did the will of the father? They say to Him, The first. Jesus says to them, Truly I say unto you, that the publicans and harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.
32 Pakuŵa che Yohana ŵaiche kukwenu ni kunnanjila kutama yambone nti yakuti pakusaka Akunnungu, ni ŵanyamwe nganimunkulupilila, nambo ŵakukumbikanya nsongo ni ŵakulaŵalaŵa ŵankulupilile. Ni ŵanyamwe pammasile kugawona gele nganinleka sambi ni kunkulupilila.”
For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you believed him not: but the publicans and harlots believed him, and you, seeing, did not afterward regret it, in order that you might believe him.
33 Che Yesu ŵatite, “Mpilikanile chitagu chine. Jwapali mundu jumo nsyene nyuumba ŵalimile ngunda wa sabibu, ŵausyunguchisye lutenje ni ŵakolosisye pakuminyila sabibu, ŵataŵile chilindo mmomopemo. Nipele ŵaujasimisye kwa ŵakulima ni kwaula ku chilambo cha kutalika.
Hear ye another parable. A man was a landlord, who planted a vineyard, and placed a hedge around it, and dug a wine-trough in it, and built a tower, and gave it out to husbandmen, and went away.
34 Katema ka kugungula, ŵatumile achikapolo ŵao kwa ŵakulima ŵala, kuti akajigale liunjili lyakwe lya magungulo.
And when the time of the fruits drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, to receive his fruits;
35 Ŵakulima ŵala ŵakamwile achikapolo ŵao, jumo ŵamputile, ni jwine ŵammuleje, ni jwine ŵamponyile maganga.
and the husbandmen taking his servants, beat one, and slew one, and stoned another.
36 Sooni ŵatumile achikapolo ŵane ŵajinji kupunda ŵa kundanda. Ŵakulima ŵala ŵajasime ngunda ŵatendele ilaila.
Again he sent other servants, more than the first: and they did unto them likewise.
37 Kumbesi kwakwe ŵantumile mwanagwe achiganisyaga mu ntima wakwe achitiji, ‘Chakanchimbichisye mwanangu.’
And afterward he sent to them his own son, saying, They will reverence my son.
38 Nambo ŵakulima ŵala paŵammweni mwanagwao ŵaŵechetesyene achinsyene pe, ‘Aju ni juchapochele iŵagosele, twende tummulaje kuti indu iŵagosele tujigale uwe!’
But the husbandmen, seeing the son, said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and take possession of his inheritance.
39 Nipele, ŵankamwile, ŵantyosisye paasa ngunda wa sabibu, ŵammuleje.
And taking him, they cast him out of the vine-yard, and slew him.
40 “Sambano, nsyene ngunda wa sabibu jula pachachiika, chachatenda ichichi ŵakulima ŵala?”
Then when the lord of the vine-yard may come, what will he do to those husbandmen?
41 Ŵanyawo ŵajanjile, “Chachajonanga wamba ŵele ŵachigongomalo wo ni ngunda wa sabibu ula chachiujasimisya kwa ŵakulima ŵane uchachapa liunjili lyakwe lya magungulo kwa katema kakwe.”
They say to Him, He will certainly destroy those wicked men, and give the vineyard to other husband-men, who will render to him the fruits in their seasons.
42 Pelepo Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Uli ana nganinsyome lye liloŵe li Mmalembelo ga Akunnungu? ‘Liganga liŵalikanile ŵakutaŵa sambano lilyolyo lili lyetendekwe liganga lyalikusachilwa kwannope kugapunda maganga gose. Ambuje ni ŵatesile achi chindu chi, nombe chili chakusimonjeka nnope kwetuwe!’
Jesus says, Have you not read in the Scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same has come to be the head of the corner: this was with the Lord, and is marvelous in our eyes?
43 “Kwayele ngunsalila, Umwenye wa Akunnungu chiutyosekwe kukwenu, ni kupegwa ŵandu ŵakupanganya yakuisaka Akunnungu.”
Therefore I say unto you, that the kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits of it.
44 Jwalijose juchagwilile pa liganga lyo chakasiche ipande ipande, ni jwalijose juchilyagwilile, chilinkanyatekanyate.
45 Achakulu ŵa mbopesi ni Mafalisayo paŵapilikene itagu yao, ŵamanyilile kuti ŵaliji nkwagamba ŵanyawo.
And the chief priests and Pharisees hearing His parables, knew that He speaks concerning them.
46 Nipele ŵasosaga litala lya kwakamula, nambo ŵajogwepe ŵandu pakuŵa ŵanyawo ŵanganisisye nti jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu.
And seeking to arrest Him, they feared the multitudes, since they held Him as a prophet.
