Matthew 21
1 And when they came near to Jerusalem, and came to Bethsphage, to the mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,
Vakati vachiswedera kuJerusarema, vasvika kuBhetifage pagomo reMiorivhi, ipapo Jesu akatuma vadzidzi vaviri,
2 saying to them, Go into the village opposite you, and straightaway ye will find a donkey tied, and a colt with it. Having loosed them, bring to me.
achiti kwavari: Endai kumusha wakatarisana nemwi, pakarepo muchawana mbongoro yakasungirwa, nedhongwana rinayo; sunungurai, muuyise kwandiri.
3 And if any man says anything to you, ye will say, The Lord has need of them, and straightaway he will send them.
Kana ani nani achitaura chinhu kwamuri, muchati: Ishe anozvida; pakarepo achazvitumira.
4 Now all this came to pass, so that what was spoken through the prophet might be fulfilled, which says,
Izvozvi zvese zvakaitika, kuti zvizadziswe zvakataurwa nemuporofita, achiti:
5 Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy King comes to thee, meek, and mounted upon a donkey, and a colt the foal of a pack animal.
Udzai mukunda weZiyoni: Tarira Mambo wako anouya kwauri, ari munyoro, akatasva mbongoro, nedhongwana, mwana wechipfuwo chemutoro.
6 And the disciples having gone, and having done as Jesus commanded them,
Vadzidzi vakaenda, vakaita Jesu sezvaakavaraira,
7 they brought the donkey and the colt, and put their garments over them. And he sat upon them.
vakauisa mbongoro nedhongwana, vakaisa nguvo dzavo pamusoro pazvo; vakamugadza pamusoro pazvo.
8 And the great multitude spread their garments on the road, and others cut down branches from the trees, and spread them on the road.
Chaunga chikuru kwazvo chikawarira nguvo dzacho munzira; vamwe vakatema matavi pamiti vakawarira munzira.
9 And the multitudes who went ahead and those who followed, cried out, saying, Hosanna to the son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest!
Zvaunga zvakange zvakamutungamirira nevakange vachitevera vakadanidzira, vachiti: Hosana kuMwanakomana waDavhidhi! Wakaropafadzwa iye anouya muzita raIshe! Hosana kumusoro-soro!
10 And when he entered into Jerusalem, all the city was shaken, saying, Who is this?
Wakati apinda muJerusarema, guta rese rikazungunuswa, richiti: Ndiani uyu?
11 And the multitudes said, This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth of Galilee.
Zvaunga zvikati: Uyu ndiJesu muporofita weNazareta reGarirea.
12 And Jesus entered into the temple of God, and cast out all those who sold and bought in the temple. And he overturned the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of those who sold the doves.
Zvino Jesu wakapinda mutembere yaMwari, akadzingira vese vaitengesa nevaitenga mutembere, akapidigura matafura evaitsinhanha mari, nezvigaro zvevaitengesa njiva.
13 And he says to them, It is written, My house will be called a house of prayer, but ye made it a den of robbers.
Akati kwavari: Kwakanyorwa kuchinzi: Imba yangu ichanzi imba yemunyengetero; asi imwi munoiita bako remakororo.
14 And the lame and the blind came to him in the temple, and he healed them.
Zvino kwakauya kwaari mapofu nevaikamhina mutembere; akavaporesa.
15 But when the chief priests and the scholars saw the wonderful things that he did, and the boys crying out in the temple and saying, Hosanna to the son of David, they were indignant,
Asi vapristi vakuru nevanyori vakati vachiona zvinhu zvinoshamisa zvaakange achiita, nevana vachidanidzira mutembere vachiti: Hosana kuMwanakomana waDhavhidhi! vakatsamwa,
16 and said to him, Do thou hear what these are saying? And Jesus says to them, Yes! Did ye never read, Out of the mouth of children and those who suckle thou have perfected praise?
vakati kwaari: Unonzwa zvavanotaura ivava here? Jesu akati kwavari: Hongu, hamuna kutongoverenga here, kuti: Mumuromo mavacheche nevanoyamwa makapedzeredza rumbidzo?
17 And having left them behind, he went out of the city to Bethany, and lodged there.
Akavasiya, akabuda panze peguta, achienda Bhetaniya, ndokurarapo.
18 Now early while returning to the city, he was hungry.
Kuzoti mangwanani-ngwanani wakati achidzokera kuguta, akanzwa nzara.
19 And having seen a fig tree, one on the way, he came to it, and found nothing on it, except leaves only. And he says to it, Let fruit no longer be produced from thee into the age. And immediately the fig tree dried out. (aiōn g165)
Zvino wakati achiona umwe muonde panzira, akaenda kwauri, akasawana chinhu kwauri, asi mashizha chete; akati kwauri: Ngakurege kuva nezvibereko kwauri kusvikira narinhi. Pakarepo muonde ukasvava. (aiōn g165)
20 And when the disciples saw it, they marveled, saying, How did the fig tree dry out immediately?
Vadzidzi vakati vachiona, vakashamisika, vachiti: Muonde wasvava pakarepo sei?
21 And having answered, Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you, if ye have faith, and doubt not, ye will not only do that of the fig tree, but even if ye may say to this mountain, Be thou taken up and cast into the sea, it will happen.
Jesu akapindura akati kwavari: Zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwamuri: Dai maiva nerutendo, musiri vasina chokwadi, hamungaiti izvi kumuonde chete, asi kunyange kana mukati kugomo iri: Simudzwa ukandirwe mugungwa; zvichaitwa.
22 And all things, as many as ye may ask in prayer, believing, ye will receive.
Nezvese zvipi nezvipi zvamunokumbira mumunyengetero, kana muchitenda, muchazvigamuchira.
23 And when he came into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to him while he taught, saying, By what authority do thou these things? And who gave thee this authority?
Wakati apinda mutembere, vapristi vakuru nevakuru vevanhu vakauya kwaari achidzidzisa, vakati: Munoita zvinhu izvozvi nesimba ripi? Ndiani akakupai simba iri?
24 And having answered, Jesus said to them, I also will ask you one word, which if ye tell me, I also will tell you by what authority I do these things.
Jesu akapindura akati kwavari: Neni ndichakubvunzai shoko rimwe; kana mukandiudza iro, neni ndichakuudzai kuti ndinoita izvi nesimba ripi.
25 The immersion of John, from where was it, from heaven or from men? And they deliberated with themselves, saying, If we should say, From heaven, he will say to us, Why then did ye not believe him?
Rubhabhatidzo rwaJohwani rwakabvepi? Kudenga here kana kuvanhu? Zvino vakataurirana pakati pavo vachiti: Kana tikati: Kudenga; uchati kwatiri: Saka sei musina kumutenda?
26 But if we should say, From men, we fear the multitude, for all hold John as a prophet.
Asi kana tikati: Kuvanhu; tinotya chaunga; nokuti vese vakatora Johwani semuporofita.
27 And having answered Jesus, they said, We know not. He said to them, And neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
Vakapindura Jesu vakati: Hatizivi. Iye ndokuti kwavari: Neni handingakuudziyi simba randinoita naro izvi.
28 But what does it seem to you? A man had two children. And having come to the first, he said, Child, go work today in my vineyard.
Zvino munofungei? Munhu waiva nevanakomana vaviri; akauya kune wekutanga, akati: Mwana, enda nhasi unobata mumunda wangu wemizambiringa.
29 And having answered, he said, I do not want to, but having repented later, he went.
Iye akapindura akati: Handidi; asi pashure akatendeuka akaenda.
30 And having come to the second, he said likewise. And having answered, he said, I, sir, and did not go.
Akaenda kune wechipiri akataura saizvozvo. Iye akapindura akati: Ndinoenda, ishe; akasaenda.
31 Which of the two did the will of the father? They say to him, The first. Jesus says to them, Truly I say to you, that the tax collectors and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.
Ndeupi pavaviri akaita kuda kwababa? Vakati kwaari: Wekutanga. Jesu akati kwavari: Zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwamuri: Vateresi nezvifeve vanokutangirai kupinda muushe hwaMwari.
32 For John came to you in a way of righteousness, and ye did not believe him, but the tax collectors and the harlots believed him. And having seen it, ye did not repent afterward to believe him.
Nokuti Johwani akauya kwamuri nenzira yekururama, mukasamutenda; asi vateresi nezvifeve vakamutenda, asi imwi makati muchiona, hamuna kutendeuka shure kwaizvozvi kuti mumutende.
33 Hear ye another parable. There was a certain man who was a house-ruler, who planted a vineyard, and placed a hedge around it, and dug a winepress in it, and built a tower, and leased it to farmers, and went on a journey.
Inzwai umwe mufananidzo. Kwaiva neumwe munhu, mwene weimba, wakasima munda wemizambiringa, akaisa ruzhowa rwakaukomberedza, akachera pekusvinira waini mauri, akavaka shongwe, akauhaisa kuvarimi, akaenda kunze kwenyika.
34 And when the time of the fruits approached, he sent his bondmen to the farmers to receive his fruits.
Kuzoti nguva yezvibereko yaswedera, akatuma varanda vake kuvarimi kuti vagamuchire zvibereko zvake.
35 And the farmers having taken his bondmen, they beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.
Asi varimi vakabata varanda vake, umwe vakarova, umwe vakauraya, umwe vakataka nemabwe.
36 Again, he sent other bondmen more than the first, and they did to them in like manner.
Akatumazve vamwe varanda vazhinji kune vekutanga; vakavaitira saizvozvo.
37 But finally he sent to them his son, saying, They will be made ashamed by my son.
Asi pakupedzisira akatuma mwanakomana wake kwavari, achiti: Vacharemekedza mwanakomana wangu.
38 But the farmers, when they saw the son, said among themselves, This is the heir, come, let us kill him, and possess his inheritance.
Asi varimi vakati vachiona mwanakomana, vakataurirana, vachiti: Uyu ndiye mugari wenhaka; uyai, ngatimuurayeyi tibate nhaka yake.
39 And having seized him, they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him.
Zvino vakamubata vakaposhera panze kunze kwemunda wemizambiringa vakamuuraya.
40 When therefore the lord of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those farmers?
Naizvozvo kana mwene wemunda wemizambiringa achisvika, uchaitei kuvarimi avo?
41 They say to him, Evil men, he will miserably destroy them, and will lease out the vineyard to other farmers, who will render him the fruits in their seasons.
Vakati kwaari: Achaparadza zvakaipa ava vakaipa, akahaisa vamwe varimi munda wemizambiringa, vachamupa zvibereko nenguva dzazvo.
42 Jesus says to them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone that those who build rejected, this came to be in the head of the corner. This happened from the Lord, and it is marvelous in our eyes?
Jesu akati kwavari: Hamuna kutongoverenga here pamagwaro panoti: Ibwe vavaki ravakaramba, ndiro rakava musoro wekona; kubva kuna Ishe izvi zvaitika zvinoshamisa pameso edu?
43 Because of this I say to you, that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you, and will be given to a nation producing the fruits of it.
Naizvozvo ndinoti kwamuri: Ushe hwaMwari huchatorwa kubva kwamuri, hukapiwa kurudzi rwunobereka zvibereko zvahwo.
44 And he who falls on this stone will be shattered, but on whomever it may fall, it will grind him to dust.
Uye anowira pamusoro pebwe iri, achavhunikanya; asi pane upi neupi warinowira richamukuya.
45 And when the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they knew that he spoke about them.
Vapristi vakuru neVaFarisi vakati vachinzwa mifananidzo yake, vakaziva kuti anotaura nezvavo.
46 And when they sought to seize him, they feared the multitudes, because they held him as a prophet.
Zvino vakati vachitsvaka kumubata vakatya zvaunga nokuti vaimutora semuporofita.
