< Mark 12 >

1 He began to speak to them in parables. “A man planted a vineyard, put a hedge around it, dug a pit for the wine press, built a tower, rented it out to a farmer, and went into another country.
Kayi Yesu walatatika kwamba kulyendibo mu mikoshanyo, walambeti, “Palikuba muntu naumbi walalima libala lya minyansa. walebaka luba kushunguluka libala, walemba cisengu cakutyaninamo minyansa ne kwibaka lupingwe. Libala ili walalibwelekesha ku balimi, nendi walaya kucishi cimbi.
2 When it was time, he sent a servant to the farmer to get from the farmer his share of the fruit of the vineyard.
Mpocalashika cindi ca kutebula, mwine libala walatuma musebenshi wakendi ku balimi mbwalabwelekesha, kwambeti bamupeko bisepo bya mulibala lisa.
3 They took him, beat him, and sent him away empty.
Nomba nabo balamwikata, ne kumuma ne kumutandanya, walabwelelako wabula ciliconse mu makasa.
4 Again, he sent another servant to them; and they threw stones at him, wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully treated.
Mwine libala walatumako kayi musebenshi wakendi naumbi. Nomba uyu balamutoba luma mu mutwi ne kumucobola cipesha nsoni.
5 Again he sent another, and they killed him, and many others, beating some, and killing some.
Kayi mwine libala walatumako naumbi, uyu balamushina. Kayi walatumako nabambi nabo balabauma, kayi nabambi balashina.
6 Therefore still having one, his beloved son, he sent him last to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’
Kwalashala muntu umo, mwanendi ngwalikusuna cikamba. Pakupwililisha mwine libala usa walatumako mwanendi,” Ne kwambeti, “Mwaname nibenga bamupe bulemu.”
7 But those farmers said among themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’
Nomba nabo balimi balatatika kumufwiya ne kwambeti, “Uyu endiye eshakapyane buboni bwa baishi, neco katumushinani kwambeti bukabe bwetu,
8 They took him, killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.
Balamutanya, ne kumushina, ne kumuwala kunsa kwa luba lwa libala.”
9 What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.
“Inga mwine libala nakenseconi? Lakenga kubashina balimi bonse ne kubwelekesha libala lyakendi kubalimi nabambi.”
10 Have not you even read this Scripture: ‘The stone which the builders rejected was made the head of the corner.
Sena nkamuna mubelengapo Mabala alambangeti, “Libwe lya candanshi ndyebalakana Beshikwibaka, Lyalaba libwe lyayandika Kupita onse.
11 This was from the Lord. It is marvelous in our eyes’?”
Mwami mwine elacinshi, Kayi cakondelesha pakucibona?”
12 They tried to seize him, but they feared the multitude; for they perceived that he spoke the parable against them. They left him and went away.
Balelekesha kucana nshila ya kumwikatilamo, nomba balatina kufula kwa bantu, pakwinga balenshibeti wambangendibo mumukoshanyo, nomba balamushiya Yesu ne kuya.
13 They sent some of the Pharisees and the Herodians to him, that they might trap him with words.
Bafalisi nabambi ne ba mucipani ca Helodi balatumwa kuli Yesu kwambeti bamutape mukwamba kwakendi.
14 When they had come, they asked him, “Teacher, we know that you are honest, and do not defer to anyone; for you are not partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?
Mpobalashika kuli Yesu balambeti, “Bashikwiyisha tucinshi, kwambeti mukute kwamba cakubinga, kayi nkamukute kubona cilikunsa kwa muntu, nkamukute kusakamaneti uyu niyani, nsombi mukute kwiyisha nshila ya Lesa mwancine ncine, Sena kusonka musonko ku mwami wa ku Loma casuminishiwa nambi sobwe?”
15 Shall we give, or shall we not give?” But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said to them, “Why do you test me? Bring me a denarius, that I may see it.”
“Tusonkenga misonko nambi sobwe?” Yesu pakubenshiba bundenga mano bwabo, walabambileti, “Ingamulanjelekeshelenga cani? Kamundetelani lyali ndilibone.”
16 They brought it. He said to them, “Whose is this image and inscription?” They said to him, “Caesar’s.”
Balamutambika lyali, Yesu walabepusheti, “Inga cintimbwi cilipa lyali, ne walembapo niyani?” Balamukumbuleti “Ni ca Mwami waku Loma.”
17 Jesus answered them, “Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” They marveled greatly at him.
Neco Yesu walabambileti, “Mupeni Mwami waku Loma bintu byakendi, nendi Lesa mupeni bintu byakendi.” Nomba balakankamana ne kwamba kulico.
18 Some Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection, came to him. They asked him, saying,
Basaduki nabambi batashomo sha kupunduka kubafu balesa kuli Yesu ne kwambeti,
19 “Teacher, Moses wrote to us, ‘If a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife behind him, and leaves no children, that his brother should take his wife and raise up offspring for his brother.’
“Bashikwiyisha, Mose walatulembela afwe kwambeti na muntu ufwa ushiya mukashi enka wabula mwana, kanike wakendi shikufwa amwebe mukalubingi ne kusemenamo bana mu mulamu wakendi mucimo ca mukwabo
20 There were seven brothers. The first took a wife, and dying left no offspring.
Lino palikuba batuloba basanu ne babili pabukwabo. Mukulene bantu waleba mukashi, nsombi walafwa kwa kubula kushiyapo bana,
21 The second took her, and died, leaving no children behind him. The third likewise;
mukwabo wamukonkapo walamweba mukalubingi, neye walafwa katana asemenamo mwana. Calenshika copeleco ku mukwabo wa butatu.
22 and the seven took her and left no children. Last of all the woman also died.
Walebwa kuli umo ne umo wa bonse basanu ne babili, nsombi bonse balafwa kwakubula kusemenamo bana, panyuma pakendi neye mukashi uyu walafwa.
23 In the resurrection, when they rise, whose wife will she be of them? For the seven had her as a wife.”
Lino bantu bakapundukanga kubafu nakabe mukashi wa bani? Pakwinga bonse basanu ne babili balamwebapo?”
24 Jesus answered them, “Is not this because you are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God?
Yesu walabakumbuleti, Sena ici nteco cilapeshengeti mulubile cakwinseti mubule kwinshiba Mabala ne ngofu sha Lesa?
25 For when they will rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.
Pakwinga bantu beti bakapunduke kubafu nteti bakebenga nambi kwebwa, pakwinga nibakabengeti bangelo ba kwilu.
26 But about the dead, that they are raised, have not you read in the book of Moses about the Bush, how God spoke to him, saying, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’?
Na nimakani akwambeti sena bafwa nibakapunduke, sena muliya kubelengapo muli buku lya Mose mpalikwamba sha cifukusa calikubangila mulilo? Lesa mpwalambila Mose eti, “Ame njame Lesa wa Abulahamu, Lesa wa Isake, kayi Lesa wa Yakobo.
27 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are therefore badly mistaken.”
Nte Lesa wa bantu bafwa, nsombi wa bayumi, mwalubila kwine!”
28 One of the scribes came and heard them questioning together, and knowing that he had answered them well, asked him, “Which commandment is the greatest of all?”
Umo wa beshikwiyisha milawo ya Mose walabanyumfwa kabakangana umo ne munendi. Kayi pakuboneti Yesu labakumbulu cakubinga ba Saduki, walamwipusha Yesu eti, “Inga nimulawo upeyo utanshi kupita yonse?”
29 Jesus answered, “The greatest is: ‘Hear, Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one.
Yesu walamukumbuleti, Mulawo utanshi ni wakwambeti, “Kamunyumfwani amwe Baislayeli, Mwami Lesa wetu, eMwami umo enka bulyo walibela.
30 You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment.
Neco suna Mwami Lesa wakobe ne moyo wakobe wonse, ne mushimu wakobe onse, ne manjeyaulwa akobe onse, kayi ne ngofu shakobe shonse.”
31 The second is like this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”
Mulawo watubili ni wakwambeti, “Suna munobe mbuli ncolisuni omwine, Paliya mulawo wapita pa milawo ibili iyi sobwe.”
32 The scribe said to him, “Truly, teacher, you have said well that he is one, and there is none other but he;
Shikwiyisha Milawo ya Mose walamwambila Yesu, eti “Ncomulamba Bashikwiyisha nicakubinga, Ee pali Lesa umo enka, paliya naumbi sobwe nsombi enka bulyo.
33 and to love him with all the heart, with all the understanding, all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbor as himself, is more important than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.”
Nomba kusuna Lesa ne moyo wakobe wonse ne buyumi bwakobe bonse ne manjeyaulwa akobe onse, kayi ne ngofu shakobe shonse, ne kusuna bantu banobe mbuli ncolisuni, kulayandikinga kupita kutwala milumbo ya banyama ne milumbo naimbi kuli Lesa.”
34 When Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, “You are not far from God’s Kingdom.” No one dared ask him any question after that.
Yesu pakwinshibeti lakumbulu camano, walamwambileti, “Obe nkolipo kutali ne Bwami bwa Lesa sobwe.” Neco bonse balaba ne buyowa, neco bonse balatina bamwipusha Yesu mwipusho naumbi.
35 Jesus responded, as he taught in the temple, “How is it that the scribes say that the Christ is the son of David?
Yesu mpwalikwiyisha Mung'anda ya Lesa, walepusheti, Inga beshikwiyisha milawo ya Mose ngabambeconi eti Klistu nimwanendi Dafeti?
36 For David himself said in the Holy Spirit, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet.”’
Kakuli Dafeti mwine pakutanguninwa ne Mushimu Uswepa, walambeti, Mwami Lesa walamba kuli mwami wakame, eti kwesa wikale ku cikasa calulyo cabulemu, mpaka nkababike balwani bakobe panshi pa myendo yakobe.
37 Therefore David himself calls him Lord, so how can he be his son?” The common people heard him gladly.
Dafeti mwine walamwambeti, “Mwami” Ngobaconi mwanendi Dafeti? Likoto lyabantu balikumunyumfwa Yesu mwakukondwa.
38 In his teaching he said to them, “Beware of the scribes, who like to walk in long robes, and to get greetings in the marketplaces,
Yesu mpwalikwiyisha, walambeti, “Cetukani ne beshikwiyisha milawo ya Mose, basuna kwendana kabali muminganjo yalelemba nekuyanda kupewa mitende yabulemu mu misena ya makwebo,
39 and to get the best seats in the synagogues and the best places at feasts,
bakute kuyanda kwikala pa bipuna byakuntangu mung'anda ya kupaililamo, ne mumisena ya bulemu musena yamalyalya.
40 those who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”
Aba bantu ebakute kupwisha buboni bwa bamukalubingi, nekulibonesheti bantu balulama mumipailo yabo itali itali, aba bantu nibakatambule lombolosho lunene!”
41 Jesus sat down opposite the treasury and saw how the multitude cast money into the treasury. Many who were rich cast in much.
Kayi Yesu mpwalekala pepi ne kabokoshi bantu nkobalikubikamo mali mung'anda kupaililamo, walikalangishisha bantu ncobalikubikamo mali. Abo balikuba ne buboni balikubikamo mali angi,
42 A poor widow came and she cast in two small brass coins, which equal a quadrans coin.
Palashika mukalubingi mupenshi, nendi walabikamo tumali tubili twa mukuba.
43 He called his disciples to himself and said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, this poor widow gave more than all those who are giving into the treasury,
Neco walakuwa beshikwiya bakendi nekubambileti, cakubinga ndamwambilinga, mukalubingi mupenshi uyu labikimo mali angi kupita ngobalabikimo bonse.
44 for they all gave out of their abundance, but she, out of her poverty, gave all that she had to live on.”
Pakwinga bonse batapulanga pa mali apitilila pa mali ngobakute kusebensesha, nsombi nendi mubupenshi bwakendi labikimo mali ngwakutenga onka mung'anda, ebwanga buyumi bwakendi.
