Makko 12
1 Mpawo wakasanguna kubaambila maambila mbali wakati, “Mwaalumi umwi wakabyala misamu yamisansa. Wakayakila lubaya aalinjiyo, wakasya dindi lyakudinina nsansa, akuyaka ingaze yasikulinda. Alimwi wakajana kupa bamwi balimi mpawo wakaya kuchisi chimbi.
And he began to speake vnto them in parables, A certaine man planted a vineyard, and copassed it with an hedge, and digged a pit for the winepresse, and built a tower in it, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a strange countrey.
2 Muchiindi chakutebula wakatuma umwi wababelesi bakwe kuyoobweza michelo yamansansa.
And at the time, he sent to the husbandmen a seruant, that he might receiue of the husbandmen of the fruite of the vineyard.
3 Pesi balimi abo bakakumujata, akumuma, akumwaanda nkakutakwe nchakabweda aacho pe.
But they tooke him, and beat him, and sent him away emptie.
4 Wakatuma uumbi mubelesi; oyo mwaalumi bakamutulula mumutwe akumusampawula. Wakatuma uumbi, alubo oyo bakakumujaya.
And againe he sent vnto them another seruant, and at him they cast stones, and brake his head, and sent him away shamefully handled.
5 Wakatuma bambi bingi; bamwi bakawumwa, bamwi bakajayigwa.
And againe he sent another, and him they slew, and many other, beating some, and killing some.
6 Kwakasyaala omwe biyo wakutuma, nkali mwana ngwaakali kuyandisya kapati. Wakamutuma nkali wakumaninsizya, wakati, “Bayomulemeka mwanaangu.”
Yet had he one sonne, his deare beloued: him also he sent the last vnto them, saying, They will reuerence my sonne.
7 Pesi balimi bakaambilana kuti, “Ooyu ngusimulya lukono. muze tumujaye, mpawo lukono luyoba lwesu.”
But ye husbandmen said among themselues, This is the heire: come, let vs kill him, and the inheritance shalbe ours.
8 Nkabela bakamujata akumujaya, akumuwaalila anze aamuunda waminsansa.
So they tooke him, and killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.
9 Aboobo ulachita buti mwani muunda? Ulasika akujaya balimi akape bambi muunda wamisaansa.
What shall then the Lord of the vineyard doe? He will come and destroy these husbandmen, and giue the vineyard to others.
10 Tamuna kwaabala na malembe: ‘Ibbwe lyakasowedwe abasikuyaka ndilyakazooba ibbwe lyachooko.
Haue ye not read so much as this Scripture? The stone which the builders did refuse, is made the head of the corner.
11 Mwaami ngwaakachichita eechi, mpawo chilabotezya kumenso eesu?’”
This was done of the Lord, and it is marueilous in our eyes.
12 Eelyo bakayanduula nzila yakumwaanga aayo nkaambo bakaziba kuti wakali kwaamba mbabo kumaambila mbali aaya. Pesi bakayoowa inkamu yabantu yakaliwo, nkaako bakamusiya mpawo bakeenda.
Then they went about to take him, but they feared the people: for they perceiued that he spake that parable against them: therefore they left him, and went their way.
13 Muchiindi chitobela bakatuma bamwi baba Falisi aba Heloda kuli Jesu kuti bakamujate mumakani aakwe.
And they sent vnto him certaine of the Pharises, and of ye Herodians that they might take him in his talke.
14 Bakasika kulinguwe bakati, “Muyisi, tulizi kuti ulimwaalumi ulaabulemu usyomekede. Topenzegwi abantu, nkaambo toswiilizyi makani aamuntu na kulanga chiwa chamuntu; pesi uyiisya nzila ya Leza mbuli mbiibede amubwini. Chileede na kutela kuli Kkayisala na pe? Tweelede kuti tubbadale na, naa kuti pe?”
And when they came, they saide vnto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou considerest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God truely, Is it lawfull to giue tribute to Cesar, or not?
15 Pesi Jesu wakalizi kuupawupa kwabo. Jesu wakababuzya kuti, “Kaambonzi nimulikweezya kunditeya?” Wakati, “Amundeetele nsiliva yanu alimwi ndiibone mbiibede.”
Should we giue it, or should we not giue it? but he knew their hypocrisie, and said vnto them, Why tempt ye me? Bring me a peny, that I may see it.
16 Elyo bakiiyeta nsiliva, alimwi wakababuzya kuti, “Mbubwani busyu obu? Alimwi ndizina lyani lilembedwe mpawo?” Bakasandula kuti, “Nzizya Kkayisala.”
So they brought it, and he said vnto them, Whose is this image and superscription? and they said vnto him, Cesars.
17 Mpawo Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Amupe Kkayisala zyaKkayisala, alimwi mupe Leza izya Leza.” Bakaba aakugamba aatala anguwe.
Then Iesus answered, and saide vnto them, Giue to Cesar the things that are Cesars, and to God, those that are Gods: and they marueiled at him.
18 Mpawo ba Saduki, baamba kuti takwe bubuke, bakaza kulinguwe amubuzyo. Bakati,
Then came the Sadduces vnto him, (which say, there is no resurrection) and they asked him, saying,
19 “Muyisi, Mozesi wakatulembela kuti, 'Na mukulana wamulumi mpawo wasiya mwanakazi kabatakwe bana, mwaalumi weelede kukwata mukamufu mpawo babe abana bamukulana.'
Master, Moses wrote vnto vs, If any mans brother die, and leaue his wife, and leaue no children, that his brother should take his wife, and rayse vp seede vnto his brother.
20 Kwakali bana bachaalumi bali musanu ababili. Mutaanzi wakakwata mpawo wakafwa katasiide mwana naba womwe.
There were seuen brethren, and the first tooke a wife, and when he died, left no issue.
21 Wachibili wakakwata mukamufu, pesi alakwe wakafwa katasiide mwana. Chakaba mbubo akuli watatu.
Then the seconde tooke her, and he died, neither did he yet leaue issue, and the third likewise:
22 Tawope akati kababa bali musanu ababili wakasiya mwana. Kumamanino, alakwe mwanakazi wakafwa.
So those seuen had her, and left no yssue: last of all the wife died also.
23 Kububuke bwabafu, oyu mwanakazi uyooba wani? Mbunga boonse kabali musanu abatatu bakalimukwete.”
In the resurrection then, when they shall rise againe, whose wife shall she be of them? for seuen had her to wife.
24 Jesu wakasandula kuti, “Tamuli mubulubizi na kambo malembe tamwaazi naa kuti manguzu aa Leza?
Then Iesus answered, and saide vnto them, Are ye not therefore deceiued, because ye knowe not the Scriptures, neither the power of God?
25 Bafu nibayoobuka, tabakoyookwata nikuba kukwatanisigwa; bayooba mbuli bangelo kujulu.
For when they shall rise againe from the dead, neither men marry, nor wiues are married, but are as the Angels which are in heauen.
26 Lino mukwaamba atala abafu nibayoobuka temwakabala na muBbuku lyaMozesi, kuleezyo zyakachitika kuchiteyo, Leza mbakaambula kulinguwe, ‘Ndime Leza wa Abbulamu, Leza wa Ayizeki, alubo Leza wa Jakobo?'
And as touching the dead, that they shall rise againe, haue ye not read in the booke of Moses, howe in the bush God spake vnto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Iacob?
27 Tali Leza wabafwide, pesi ngwababapona. Mulilubizizye kapati!”
God is not ye God of the dead, but the God of the liuing. Ye are therefore greatly deceiued.
28 Umwi wabayisyi bamulawo naakasika wakamvwa kabakazyania. Nkabwene kuti Jesu wakali wabapa nsandulo mbotu, wakabuzya Jesu kuti, “Nguuli mulawo mupati kwiinda imwi akati kamilawo yoonse?” Jesu wakamusandula kuti,
Then came one of the Scribes that had heard them disputing together, and perceiuing that he had answered them well, he asked him, Which is the first commandement of all?
29 “Ngooyu: ‘Amuswiilile, noma Izilayeli, Mwaami Leza wesu, Mwaami ngumwi.
Iesus answered him, The first of all the commandements is, Heare, Israel, The Lord our God is the onely Lord.
30 Yanda Mwami Leza wako amoyo wako woonse, amizeezo yako yoonse, mpawo amanguzu aako woonse.’ Wabili ngooyu:
Thou shalt therefore loue the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soule, and with all thy minde, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandement.
31 ‘Yanda mweenzinyokwe mbuli mboliyanda.’ Tuwope mulawo mupati wiinda eeyi.”
And the second is like, that is, Thou shalt loue thy neighbour as thy selfe. There is none other commandement greater then these.
32 Oyu mwaalumi wakasandula kuti, “Waamba kabotu omuyisyi, waamba kabotu kuti Leza ngumwi alubo takukwe umbi kunze kwakwe alike.
Then that Scribe said vnto him, Well, Master, thou hast saide the trueth, that there is one God, and that there is none but he,
33 Kumuyanda amoyo wako woonse, akumvwisisisya kwako alubo amanguzu aako woonse, mpawo akuyanda simabambanwa wako mbuli mboliyanda nkubotu loko kwiinda zipayizyo.”
And to loue him with all the heart, and with all the vnderstanding, and with all the soule, and with all the strength, and to loue his neighbour as himselfe, is more then all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
34 Lino Jesu naakabona kuti wasandula chabuchenjezu, wakati kuli nguwe, “Tolikulepe a Bwami bwa Leza.” Elyo kuzwa awo tawope naba omwe wakeezya kumubuzya iimbi mibuzyo.
Then when Iesus saw that he answered discreetely, he saide vnto him, Thou art not farre from the kingdome of God. And no man after that durst aske him any question.
35 Nkali kuyiisya Jesu mulubuwa lwatempele, wakabuzya mubuzyo wakati, “Nkamboonzi bayiisi bamulawo nibati Kilisitu mwana waDavida? We lwakwe
And Iesus answered and said teaching in the Temple, Howe say the Scribes that Christ is the sonne of Dauid?
36 Devidi, kaambuzigwa a Muuya Uusalala, wakachaamba antanganana wakati: ‘Mwami wakati kuMwami wangu, kkala kukuboko kwachilisyo kwangu kusikila basinkondonyokwe ndibabike kunsi amawulu aako.’
For Dauid himselfe said by ye holy Ghost, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footestoole.
37 We lwakwe Devidi umwiita kuti ‘Mwami.’ Ani inga ulaba mwana wakwe biyeni?” Inkamu yabantu yaka muswiilizya chalumwemwe.
Then Dauid himselfe calleth him Lord: by what meanes is he then his sonne? and much people heard him gladly.
38 Naakalikuyiisya Jesu wakati, “Amubachenjelele bayiisi bamulawo balayandisya kweendeenda kabatungana mulongo kabajuzigwa kumasambalilo,
Moreouer he saide vnto them in his doctrine, Beware of the Scribes which loue to goe in long robes, and loue salutations in the markets,
39 alubo akupegwa zyuuno zibotu mumambungano akulemekwa kapati aabungene bantu.
And the chiefe seates in the Synagogues, and the first roumes at feastes,
40 Balanyonyoona maanda abamukabafu kabakomba ankombyo ndamfu chakweebwa. Aaba bantu bayoopegwa chisubulo chipati.”
Which deuoure widowes houses, euen vnder a colour of long prayers. These shall receiue the greater damnation.
41 Jesu wakakkala kumbali lyachiykoobwedo chazituzyo mung'anda ya Leza; bantu nibakalikuwaala mali muchiyobweedo. Bavubi biingi bakalikuwala imali nyingi.
And as Iesus sate ouer against the treasurie, he beheld how the people cast money into the treasurie, and many rich men cast in much.
42 Pesi mukamufu muchete wakabika biyo tupeni tobile, tweelene aaseleni lyomwe.
And there came a certaine poore widowe, and she threw in two mites, which make a quadrin.
43 Lino wakayita basikwiiya bakwe, wakati, Ndiikumwaambila kasimpe kuti, ooyu mukamufu wabika kwiinda boonse muchiyobwedo.
Then he called vnto him his disciples, and said vnto them, Verely I say vnto you, that this poore widowe hath cast more in, then all they which haue cast into the treasurie.
44 Boonse bapa mukweendelana abuvubi bwabo; pesi we, mubuchete bwakwe, wabika zyoonse nzyaalangilide mubuumi bwakwe kuti apone anzizyo.”
For they all did cast in of their superfluitie: but she of her pouertie did cast in all that she had, euen all her liuing.
