Matthew 12
1 At that time, Jesus went on the Sabbath day through the grain fields. His disciples were hungry and began to pluck heads of grain and to eat.
Unsiekhi guula uYesu alutile akhageenda mufjalo ya vanu ielinchuva ilya sabato. Avankhongi va mwene vale nienjala pwu valiekhudenya isoncho ncha nganu valiekhusegheya mu mavokho valiekhulya.
2 But the Pharisees, when they saw it, said to him, “Behold, your disciples do what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath.”
Avafalisayo vuvaloliele ewo, vakhambula uYesu vakhata “Ulole avankongi vakho vanangile ululagielo vivombo inchusanchinogiewa ukhumba ilinchuva ilya Sabato.”
3 But he said to them, “Have not you read what David did when he was hungry, and those who were with him:
Pwu uYesu akhavavula akhata, “Samwiembile inchu uDaudi avombile unsienkhe uuguale nie njala, na vanu vamwene uvuale nawo?
4 how he entered into God’s house and ate the show bread, which was not lawful for him to eat, nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests?
Vwuingile munyumba iya Nguluve alikhulya ikhisyesye, khikyo sakyale kyakhula na vanu uvuale nawo, kyale kyankhula avate nkhenchi vene?
5 Or have you not read in the law that on the Sabbath day the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath and are guiltless?
Khange samwimbile ululagielo ukhuta avatekhendu mugaati muntembile vikhuyibeda ei Sabato, ulwa khuva valievuvule uvuvivi?
6 But I tell you that one greater than the temple is here.
Pwu nikhuva vula umwe ikhuta umbaha ukhulutielila ietembile pwale aapha.
7 But if you had known what this means, ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’ you would not have condemned the guiltless.
Mwale mulumanye eile khikhuta khikhi; une nilondo iekhisa sahielonda iefyakhusa; samukhale munkhuvahiga vavo valie vuvule ienongwa,
8 For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.”
Ulwa khuva umwana va Adamu veimwene inkhuludeva va Sabato.”
9 He departed from there and went into their synagogue.
U Yesu pwankhahega pala akhaluta muntembile yavene.
10 And behold, there was a man with a withered hand. They asked him, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath day?” so that they might accuse him.
Lola pwu ale umunu uvyaposile inkhivokho. Pwu vankhambuncha uYesu vankhata, “Ndayiva lweli unkhumponia umunu eilinchuva ilya Sabato?” Valiekhunogwa ukhusitakha ukhuta avombile imbivi.
11 He said to them, “What man is there among you who has one sheep, and if this one falls into a pit on the Sabbath day, will not he grab on to it and lift it out?
U Yesu ankhavavula, “Veni umunu yuywa angave nie ng'osi yiengile ndiguli eilinchuva ilya Sabato, sakhawesye ukwingile mugaati ndiguli mukhuyihumya na makha eing'osi mundieguli?
12 Of how much more value then is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath day.”
Khiliekhu iekhienunu ukhulutielila khuo ng'osi! Pwu yiva lweli ukhumba inonu ielinchuva ilya Sabato.”
13 Then he told the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out; and it was restored whole, just like the other.
wu akhambula umunu unla akhata, “Husya iekhievokho kyakho” Akhahusya iekheivokho nkhapona khinkha khwanana niekhieniena.
14 But the Pharisees went out and conspired against him, how they might destroy him.
Avafalisayo vankhahuma nkhunji ankhanchovana vankhidihana umwakhumbudiela pwu vankhahuma khunji vuvikhwidihana ukhubuda.
15 Jesus, perceiving that, withdrew from there. Great multitudes followed him; and he healed them all,
U Yesu wanchimanyile ienchi ankhahuma ankhahega apo. Pwu avanu avingi vavo vankonga, ankhavaponia voni.
16 and commanded them that they should not make him known,
Ankhabencha unkhuta valenkhage ukhuvavula avanu ynkhuta umwene vyavaponninche.
17 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
Ukhuta linkhongane nielivanchovile unyamalago u Isaya, ukhuta,
18 “Behold, my servant whom I have chosen, my beloved in whom my soul is well pleased. I will put my Spirit on him. He will proclaim justice to the nations.
Mulolage umbombi vango uvieniegaanile une muugaati munumbula yango niengaaniele. Nivieka inumbula yango muugaati mumwene, unkhuta avavulaghe avanyampaji uvuhiegi.
19 He will not strive, nor shout, neither will anyone hear his voice in the streets.
Salatabeikha hange nukhuliela na mankha; hange asikhuli uyakhiva ipuliekha iliemenyu lyamwene munjila.
20 He will not break a bruised reed. He will not quench a smoking flax, until he leads justice to victory.
Saladeenya aligugu alepunuikhe; salanchimya ikhiesikhi eikhihumya eilyosi, ukhuduga uvuhiegi ukhuwesya.
21 In his name, the nations will hope.”
Avanyapanji pwu vivinchaga va nuhuvila munditawa ilyamwene.
22 Then one possessed by a demon, blind and mute, was brought to him; and he healed him, so that the blind and mute man both spoke and saw.
Pwu vankhandetela umunu uvyabifwile amiho ububu, unyaniepo imbivi khwa Yesu. Unkhuta anjaviele akhanjaviela akhapona, umunu ula akhapona ankhalola nunkhuchova.
23 All the multitudes were amazed, and said, “Can this be the son of David?”
Avanu aviingi voni valienkhudegha nu nkhunchova, unkhuta “Uyu samwana va Daudi?”
24 But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, “This man does not cast out demons except by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons.”
Avafalisayo vuvapuliekhe ienkhiedego iekhi, vakhata, “'Umunu uyu sihencha imepo imbivi khumakha agha mwene yuywa iekhencha khumankha aga Belzebuli, umbaha va mepo.
25 Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.
“U Yesu aghamanyiele amasago gavene akhavavula akhata, “'Inkhilunga nkhingasambunkhilanile kyene khinangienkha, uvujeenge uwa nyumba vungalekhehane vuwa savukhieme.
26 If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?
Iengave Usetano inkhung'encha Usetano uniene, pwu iva inkheihambula yuywa mumbwumi uwamwene.
27 If I by Beelzebul cast out demons, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.
Khunjiela yieliekhu uvutwa uwa mwene vuliemiekhiwa? Inave ihencha imepo imbivi khumakha aga Belizabuli, avankongi avanwene pwu vihumya khunjila yieliekhu? Khulugendo ulu valavavalamuli.
28 But if I by the Spirit of God cast out demons, then God’s Kingdom has come upon you.
Inave iehencha iemepo imbivi khumakha aga a Mepo uva Nguluve, uludeva ulwakhukyanya lwiva lwinchile khulyumwe.
29 Or how can one enter into the house of the strong man and plunder his goods, unless he first bind the strong man? Then he will plunder his house.
Umunu ikwingila ndakhiekhi munyumba yamunu unyamakha nukhuhiencha, vusankhungile umunu unyamakha? Pwi weesya ukhuhiencha ifinu munyumba.
30 “He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me, scatters.
Umunu uvieavenchaga yuywa salielipupaninie nune pwu iva alivuunge nune, hange uviesilundamania nune uywa vieihasania. (itaga)
31 Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men.
Pwu nienchova nkhulyumwe, eimbivi eiyavienchaga nulubedo avanu visyiekhiliwagwa, pwu ukhumbeda uMepo umbalanche uywa salasyiekhiliwa.
32 Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age (aiōn g165), or in that which is to come.
Uvieavinchaga uvieinchova eilimenyu vunge nu mwana va Adamu, ielyo lisyiekhiliwa. Hange uviavenchaga uvieinchova vunge khu Mepo umbalanche, uywa salasyiekhiliwa mukhilunga iekhi, na khikhilunga ikhikyuncha. (aiōn g165)
33 “Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree corrupt and its fruit corrupt; for the tree is known by its fruit.
Pwu uvombe umbinki ukhuva guuve ni nsenkhe inonu, apange unange uguu nange umbinkhi ugwa sekhe na nchisekhe ncha yene, ulwa khuva umbinkhi gwumanyiekhikha nisenkhe ncha yene.
34 You offspring of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.
Umwe mwivaholilwa va njonkha, umwe mulievavivi, ndamuwesya ukhunchova imbombo inonu? Ulwa khuva undomo gwinchova inchihuma munumbula yamunu.
35 The good man out of his good treasure brings out good things, and the evil man out of his evil treasure brings out evil things.
Umunu unonu munumbula yamwene inchueivikhile inchova inonu, numunu umbivi munumbula yamwene inchova imbivi inchuiviekhile.
36 I tell you that every idle word that men speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment.
Lino pwu ninkhuvavula ukhuta khila limenyu ilyuinchova umunu lya lahomya eimbalilo ilinchuva eilyavuhieghi.
37 For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”
Ulwa khuva khumamenyu ghankho ulavalieliwa imbalielo khuvuyilweli wa mamenyu ghako ulahiegiewa.”
38 Then certain of the scribes and Pharisees answered, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from you.”
Pwu avanklani na Vafalisayo vakhamwa khwa Yesu vakhata “Imanyisi, twinogwa twale tulole iekhimanyielo ukhuhuma khulwuve.”
39 But he answered them, “An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, but no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah the prophet.
Hange uYesu akhamula nu khuvavula, “Uvuholwa uvuvivi ikya vuliigu khilondo eikhimanyielo. Khisikhuli inkhiemanyilo eikyakhiva khihumila khuvene khumbe ikhiemanyilo ikya Yona unyamalago.
40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the huge fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
Nduvu unyamalago uYona atamile mulitumbu eilya somba eimbaha amanchuva ghaatadatu pamusi na pakhilo, vule vule umwana va Adamu wayiva mughati munumbula ya nkhilunga khumanchuva ghadatu pamusi na pankhilo.
41 The men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation and will condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, someone greater than Jonah is here.
Avanu avakhu Ninawi valiema pavulongolo pavuhieghi pwu paninie na vaholwa avalieno ava. Ulwa khuva vavombile imbivi vakhapela wie lumbiliela u Yona, ulwa khuva khwale apa umunu umbaha ukhulutielila khwa Yona.
42 The Queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with this generation and will condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, someone greater than Solomon is here.
Unkhuludeva undala uvakhusikha alatogha pwu paninie khuvuhieghi na vanu avakhivumbukho iekhi nukhukhihiega ukhuta valie nimbivi. Ulwa khuva umwene akhumile uluvafu ulwa khuvusilielo wa nkhilunga ukhwincha khupuliehiencha uluhala ulwa Selemani, lola apa pwale umunu umbaha uvalutielile khwa Selemani.
43 “When an unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he passes through waterless places seeking rest, and does not find it.
Vui imepo imbivi vunchi huma khumunu, nchihumili apoonu upwu ghasipali amaghasi vughilonda apakhughataluka, humbe pasipali.
44 Then he says, ‘I will return into my house from which I came;’ and when he has come back, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order.
Pwu nchita, 'nighodonkha khukhaya ukhuniehumile khunyumba yango iyounihumile.' Vuikhilivukha pwivona inyumba iela yiekhuniwe yieviekhiwe vunonu.
45 Then he goes and takes with himself seven other spirits more evil than he is, and they enter in and dwell there. The last state of that man becomes worse than the first. Even so will it be also to this evil generation.”
Pwu iluuta inchikhunchi ghegha inchinghe imepo imbivi saba imbivi ukhulutielila khumwene, pwu nchikhwicha nchitamaga numwene upwa lyiepo. Umwakhavelile pakhusila pwu iva pavuvivi huba pavutengulielo. Vuyakhieva khiva ikhievumbukho ikhie eikhivivi.
46 While he was yet speaking to the multitudes, behold, his mother and his brothers stood outside, seeking to speak to him.
U Yesu vuinchova na vanu avinghi, uvanina navalukhololwe vaeimile khunji, valiekhunogwa ukhunchova nave.
47 One said to him, “Behold, your mother and your brothers stand outside, seeking to speak to you.”
Umunu yumo akhaluta akhambula, “Akha ujyuva vako navalukhololwo veimile panchi, vinkhukhulonda vinogwa ukhunchova nuve”.
48 But he answered him who spoke to him, “Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?”
Akhamula akhata uvyambulile ujyuva vango veini? na valukholo lwango veini?”
49 He stretched out his hand toward his disciples, and said, “Behold, my mother and my brothers!
Umwene akhinula iekhievokha kya mwene khuvakhongi vamwene akhanchova, “Lola, uyou vie jyuva vango navalunkholo lwango!
50 For whoever does the will of my Father who is in heaven, he is my brother, and sister, and mother.”
Ulwa khuva umunu uvieivombo uwieghane wa Dada vango vuuakhukyanya, umunu uyou vilukholo lwango, ving'anchavango hange vijyuva vango”.
