Matthew 13
1 On that day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the seaside.
Nezuva iro, Jesu wakabuda mumba akagara pasi parutivi rwegungwa.
2 Great multitudes gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat and sat; and all the multitude stood on the beach.
Uye zvaunga zvikuru zvakaungana kwaari, kusvikira apinda muchikepe akagara pasi; nechaunga chese chakamira pamahombekombe.
3 He spoke to them many things in parables, saying, “Behold, a farmer went out to sow.
Ndokutaura zvinhu zvizhinji kwavari nemifananidzo, achiti: Tarirai, mukushi wakabuda kunokusha.
4 As he sowed, some seeds fell by the roadside, and the birds came and devoured them.
Zvino pakukusha kwake, imwe mbeu yakawira kurutivi rwenzira; shiri dzikasvika dzikaidya.
5 Others fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, because they had no depth of earth.
Imwe ikawira panzvimbo dzine mabwe, payakange isina ivhu zhinji; ikamera pakarepo, nokuti pakange pasina udziku hwevhu.
6 When the sun had risen, they were scorched. Because they had no root, they withered away.
Kuzoti zuva rabuda, yakapiswa, uye nokuti yakange isina mudzi, yakasvava.
7 Others fell among thorns. The thorns grew up and choked them.
Asi imwe yakawira paminzwa; minzwa ikakura, ikaivhunga.
8 Others fell on good soil and yielded fruit: some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.
Asi imwe yakawira muvhu rakanaka, ikabereka chibereko, imwe zana, neimwe makumi matanhatu, neimwe makumi matatu.
9 He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
Ane nzeve dzekunzwa, ngaanzwe.
10 The disciples came, and said to him, “Why do you speak to them in parables?”
Zvino vadzidzi vakasvika, vakati kwaari: Munotaurirei kwavari nemifananidzo?
11 He answered them, “To you it is given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven, but it is not given to them.
Akapindura akati kwavari: Nokuti kwakapiwa kwamuri kuziva zvakavanzika zveushe hwekumatenga, asi kwavari hakuna kupiwa.
12 For whoever has, to him will be given, and he will have abundance; but whoever does not have, from him will be taken away even that which he has.
Nokuti ani nani anazvo achapiwa, uye achava nezvakawanda; asi ani nani asina achatorerwa kunyange nezvaanazvo.
13 Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing, they do not hear, neither do they understand.
Naizvozvo ndinotaura kwavari nemifananidzo, kuti vachiona havaoni; uye vachinzwa havanzwi, uye havanzwisisi.
14 In them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says, ‘By hearing you will hear, and will in no way understand; Seeing you will see, and will in no way perceive;
Uye kwavari kwakazadziswa chiporofita chaIsaya chinoti: Nekunzwa muchanzwa, asi hamungatongonzwisisi; nekuona muchaona, asi hamungatongoonesesi.
15 for this people’s heart has grown callous, their ears are dull of hearing, and they have closed their eyes; or else perhaps they might perceive with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their heart, and would turn again, and I would heal them.’
Nokuti moyo wevanhu ava wava mukukutu, uye vanonzwa nenzeve nemutsutsururu, nemeso avo vakaatsinzina; zvimwe varege kuona nemeso, uye vanzwe nenzeve, uye vanzwisise nemoyo, vatendeukewo, ndigovaporesa.
16 “But blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear.
Asi akaropafadzwa meso enyu, nokuti anoona; nenzeve dzenyu, nokuti dzinonzwa.
17 For most certainly I tell you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see the things which you see, and did not see them; and to hear the things which you hear, and did not hear them.
Nokuti zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwamuri: Vaporofita nevakarurama vazhinji vakange vachishuva kuona zvamunoona, asi havana kuzviona; nekunzwa zvamunonzwa, asi havana kunzwa.
18 “Hear, then, the parable of the farmer.
Naizvozvo imwi inzwai mufananidzo wemukushi.
19 When anyone hears the word of the Kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away that which has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown by the roadside.
Umwe neumwe anonzwa shoko reushe asi asinganzwisisi, wakaipa anosvika ndokubvuta chakakushwa mumoyo make. Uyu ndiye wakakushwa kurutivi rwenzira.
20 What was sown on the rocky places, this is he who hears the word and immediately with joy receives it;
Asi wakakushwa panzvimbo dzine mabwe, ndiye anonzwa shoko ndokurigamuchira pakarepo nemufaro;
21 yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he stumbles.
asi haana mudzi maari, asi anogara kwenguva, uye kana dambudziko kana kushushwa zvichiuya nekuda kweshoko, pakarepo anogumburwa.
22 What was sown among the thorns, this is he who hears the word, but the cares of this age (aiōn g165) and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful.
Uye wakakushwa paminzwa, ndiye anonzwa shoko, asi kufunganya kwenyika ino nekunyengera kwefuma zvinovhunga shoko, rova risingabereki. (aiōn g165)
23 What was sown on the good ground, this is he who hears the word and understands it, who most certainly bears fruit and produces, some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.”
Asi wakakushwa muvhu rakanaka, ndiye anonzwa shoko akanzwisisa, anoberekawo zvibereko, achiita, umwe zana, neumwe makumi matanhatu, neumwe makumi matatu.
24 He set another parable before them, saying, “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field,
Wakaisa pamberi pavo umwe mufananidzo, achiti: Ushe hwekumatenga hunofananidzwa nemunhu wakakusha mbeu yakanaka mumunda make.
25 but while people slept, his enemy came and sowed darnel weeds also among the wheat, and went away.
Asi vanhu vakati varere, muvengi wake wakauya, akakusha mashawi pakati pezviyo, akaenda.
26 But when the blade sprang up and produced grain, then the darnel weeds appeared also.
Asi chipande chakati chamera nekubereka chibereko, zvino mashawi akaonekwawo.
27 The servants of the householder came and said to him, ‘Sir, did not you sow good seed in your field? Where did these darnel weeds come from?’
Zvino varanda vemwene weimba vakaswedera vakati kwaari: Ishe, hamuna kukusha mbeu yakanaka mumunda wenyu here? Zvino wawanepi mashawi?
28 “He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ “The servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and gather them up?’
Akati kwavari: Muvengi waita izvi. Varanda vakati kwaari: Saka munoda kuti tinoaunganidza here?
29 “But he said, ‘No, lest perhaps while you gather up the darnel weeds, you root up the wheat with them.
Asi wakati: Kwete, zvimwe kana muchiunganidza mashawi, mungadzura zviyo nawo.
30 Let both grow together until the harvest, and in the harvest time I will tell the reapers, “First, gather up the darnel weeds, and bind them in bundles to burn them; but gather the wheat into my barn.”’”
Regai zvikure pamwe zviri zviviri kusvikira pakukohwa; zvino nenguva yekukohwa ndichati kuvakohwi: Unganidzai pakutanga mashawi, muasunge mwanda kuti muapise; asi muunganidze zviyo mudura rangu.
31 He set another parable before them, saying, “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a grain of mustard seed which a man took, and sowed in his field,
Wakaisa pamberi pavo umwe mufananidzo achiti: Ushe hwekumatenga hwakafanana netsanga yemasitadha, munhu yaanotora akaidzvara mumunda make.
32 which indeed is smaller than all seeds. But when it is grown, it is greater than the herbs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in its branches.”
Iyo idiki zvirokwazvo pambeu dzese, asi kana yakura ihuru pamiriwo, inova muti, zvekuti shiri dzekudenga dzinouya dzichivaka matendere pamatavi awo.
33 He spoke another parable to them. “The Kingdom of Heaven is like yeast which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, until it was all leavened.”
Akataura umwe mufananidzo kwavari akati: Ushe hwekumatenga hwakafanana nembiriso, mukadzi yaakatora, akaiisa muzviyero zvitatu zveupfu kusvikira hwese hwaviriswa.
34 Jesus spoke all these things in parables to the multitudes; and without a parable, he did not speak to them,
Izvi zvinhu zvese Jesu wakaudza zvaunga nemifananidzo, uye pasina mufananidzo haana kutaura kwavari;
35 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying, “I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden from the foundation of the world.”
kuti chizadziswe chakarehwa nemuporofita, achiti: Ndichazarura muromo wangu nemifananidzo; ndichataura zvinhu zvakange zvakavanzika kubva pamavambo enyika.
36 Then Jesus sent the multitudes away, and went into the house. His disciples came to him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the darnel weeds of the field.”
Zvino Jesu wakati arega zvaunga zvichienda, akapinda mumba; vadzidzi vake vakaswedera kwaari, vachiti: Tidudzirei mufananidzo wemashawi emunda.
37 He answered them, “He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man,
Akapindura akati kwavari: Anokusha mbeu yakanaka Mwanakomana wemunhu;
38 the field is the world, the good seeds are the children of the Kingdom, and the darnel weeds are the children of the evil one.
uye munda inyika; nembeu yakanaka ndivo vana veushe; asi mashawi vana vewakaipa.
39 The enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the consummation of the age (aiōn g165), and the reapers are angels.
Uye muvengi wakaakusha ndidhiabhorosi; uye kukohwa kuguma kwenyika; nevakohwi vatumwa. (aiōn g165)
40 As therefore the darnel weeds are gathered up and burned with fire; so will it be at the consummation of this age (aiōn g165).
Naizvozvo mashawi sezvaanounganidzwa achipiswa mumoto, zvichava saizvozvo pakuguma kwenyika ino. (aiōn g165)
41 The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will gather out of his Kingdom all things that cause stumbling and those who do iniquity,
Mwanakomana wemunhu achatuma vatumwa vake, vagounganidza kubva muushe hwake zvigumbuso zvese nevanoita zvakaipa;
42 and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
zvino vachavakandira muvira remoto; ipapo pachava nekuchema nekugeda-geda kwemeno.
43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the Kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
Ipapo vakarurama vachapenya sezuva muushe hwaBaba vavo. Ane nzeve dzekunzwa, ngaanzwe.
44 “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like treasure hidden in the field, which a man found and hid. In his joy, he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.
Zvekare ushe hwekumatenga hwakafanana nefuma yakavigwa mumunda, inoti kana munhu aiwana, anoiviga; zvino nemufaro wake anoenda akanotengesa zvese zvaanazvo akatenga munda uyo.
45 “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a merchant seeking fine pearls,
Zvekare ushe hwekumatenga hwakafanana nemushambadzi anotsvaka maparera akanaka;
46 who having found one pearl of great price, he went and sold all that he had and bought it.
akati awana parera rimwe rine mutengo mukuru, akaenda akanotengesa zvese zvaakange anazvo, akaritenga.
47 “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a dragnet that was cast into the sea and gathered some fish of every kind,
Zvekare ushe hwekumatenga hwakafanana nemumbure wakakandirwa mugungwa, ukaunganidza marudzi ese ehove.
48 which, when it was filled, fishermen drew up on the beach. They sat down and gathered the good into containers, but the bad they threw away.
Iwo kana wazara, vanoukwevera pamahombekombe, ndokugara pasi, vakaunganidzira dzakanaka mumidziyo, asi dzakaipa vakadzirasira kunze.
49 So it will be in the consummation of the age (aiōn g165). The angels will come and separate the wicked from among the righteous,
Zvichava saizvozvo pakuguma kwenguva; vatumwa vachabuda, vachaparadzanisa vakaipa kubva pakati pevakarurama, (aiōn g165)
50 and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
uye vachavakandira muvira remoto; ipapo pachava nekuchema nekugeda-geda kwemeno.
51 Jesus said to them, “Have you understood all these things?” They answered him, “Yes, Lord.”
Jesu akati kwavari: Manzwisisa izvi zvese here? Vakati kwaari: Hongu Ishe.
52 He said to them, “Therefore every scribe who has been made a disciple in the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a householder, who brings out of his treasure new and old things.”
Zvino akati kwavari: Naizvozvo munyori umwe neumwe wakadzidziswa zveushe hwekumatenga wakafanana nemunhu, mwene weimba, anobudisa zvinhu zvitsva nezvisharu pafuma yake.
53 When Jesus had finished these parables, he departed from there.
Zvino zvakaitika kuti Jesu apedza mifananidzo iyi wakabvapo.
54 Coming into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished and said, “Where did this man get this wisdom and these mighty works?
Uye wakati asvika kunyika yekwake akavadzidzisa musinagoge ravo, kusvikira vashamisika vakati: Kunobvepi kune uyu kuchenjera uku nemabasa esimba?
55 Is not this the carpenter’s son? Is not his mother called Mary, and his brothers James, Joses, Simon, and Judas?
Uyu haasi mwanakomana wemuvezi here? Ko mai vake havanzi Maria here, nevanin'ina vake Jakobho naJose naSimoni naJudhasi here?
56 Are not all of his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all of these things?”
Nehanzvadzi dzake hadzisi nesu dzese here? Ko zvinobvepi kune uyu zvinhu izvozvi zvese?
57 They were offended by him. But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country and in his own house.”
Vakagumbuswa naye. Asi Jesu akati kwavari: Muporofita haavi asina kukudzwa kunze kwemunyika yekwake nemumba make.
58 He did not do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
Uye haana kuita mabasa esimba mazhinji ipapo nekuda kwekusatenda kwavo.
