Matthew 12
1 At that season Jesus went on the sabbath day through the grainfields; and his disciples were hungry and began to pluck ears and to eat.
Pa nthawi imeneyo Yesu anadutsa pakati pa minda ya tirigu pa tsiku la Sabata. Ophunzira ake anamva njala nayamba kuthyola ngala za tirigu nʼkumadya.
2 But the Pharisees, when they saw it, said unto him, Behold, thy disciples do that which it is not lawful to do upon the sabbath.
Afarisi ataona zimenezi anati kwa Iye, “Taonani! Ophunzira anu akuchita zosaloledwa pa tsiku la Sabata.”
3 But he said unto them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was hungry, and they that were with him;
Iye anayankha kuti, “Kodi simunawerenge zimene anachita Davide pamene iye ndi anzake anamva njala?
4 how he entered into the house of God, and ate the showbread, which it was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them that were with him, but only for the priests?
Analowa mʼNyumba ya Mulungu, ndipo iye ndi anzakewo anadya buledi wopatulika amene sikunali kololedwa kwa iwo kudya koma ansembe okha.
5 Or have ye not read in the law, that on the sabbath day the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are guiltless?
Kodi simunawerenge mʼmalamulo kuti pa Sabata ansembe mʼNyumba ya Mulungu amaphwanya lamulo la Sabata komabe sawayesa olakwa?
6 But I say unto you, that one greater than the temple is here.
Ine ndikuwuzani kuti wamkulu kuposa Nyumba ya Mulunguyo ali pano.
7 But if ye had known what this meaneth, I desire mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.
Ngati mukanadziwa zomwe mawu awa atanthauza, ‘Ine ndifuna chifundo osati nsembe,’ inu simukanatsutsa osalakwa.
8 For the Son of man is lord of the sabbath.
Pakuti Mwana wa Munthu ndiye Mbuye wa Sabata.”
9 And he departed thence, and went into their synagogue:
Atachoka kumeneko anakalowa mʼsunagoge mwawo.
10 and behold, a man having a withered hand. And they asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath day? that they might accuse him.
Ndipo mʼmenemo munali munthu wolumala dzanja. Pofuna chifukwa chokamunenezera, iwo anamufunsa Yesu kuti, “Kodi nʼkololedwa kuchiritsa munthu tsiku la Sabata?”
11 And he said unto them, What man shall there be of you, that shall have one sheep, and if this fall into a pit on the sabbath day, will he not lay hold on it, and lift it out?
Iye anawawuza kuti, “Ngati wina wa inu ali ndi nkhosa nigwera mʼdzenje tsiku la Sabata, kodi simudzayigwira ndi kuyitulutsa kunja?
12 How much then is a man of more value than a sheep! Wherefore it is lawful to do good on the sabbath day.
Nanga munthu sali oposa nkhosa kwambiri! Chifukwa chake nʼkololedwa kuchita zabwino pa Sabata.”
13 Then saith he to the man, Stretch forth thy hand. And he stretched it forth; and it was restored whole, as the other.
Pamenepo Yesu anati kwa munthuyo, “Wongola dzanja lako.” Iye analiwongola ndipo linakhala monga linalili kale.
14 But the Pharisees went out, and took counsel against him, how they might destroy him.
Koma Afarisi anatuluka kunja ndi kukonza njira yoti amuphere.
15 And Jesus perceiving [it] withdrew from thence: and many followed him; and he healed them all,
Podziwa zimenezi, Yesu anachoka kumalo amenewo. Ambiri anamutsata Iye ndipo anachiritsira odwala awo onse
16 and charged them that they should not make him known:
nawachenjeza kuti asamuwulule kuti yani.
17 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
Uku kunali kukwaniritsa zimene zinayankhulidwa kudzera mwa mneneri Yesaya kuti,
18 Behold, my servant whom I have chosen; My beloved in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my Spirit upon him, And he shall declare judgment to the Gentiles.
“Taonani mnyamata wanga amene ndinamusankha, Wokondedwa wanga, amene moyo wanga ukondwera naye. Pa Iye ndidzayika Mzimu wanga, ndipo Iye adzalalikira chiweruzo kwa akunja.
19 He shall not strive, nor cry aloud; Neither shall any one hear his voice in the streets.
Sadzalimbana, sadzafuwula, ngakhale mmodzi sadzamva mawu ake mʼmakwalala.
20 A bruised reed shall he not break, And smoking flax shall he not quench, Till he send forth judgment unto victory.
Bango lophwanyika sadzalithyola, ndi nyale yofuka sadzayizimitsa, kufikira Iye adzatumiza chiweruziro chikagonjetse.
21 And in his name shall the Gentiles hope.
Ndipo akunja adzakhulupirira dzina lake.”
22 Then was brought unto him one possessed with a demon, blind and dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the dumb man spake and saw.
Pomwepo anthu anabwera naye kwa Yesu munthu wogwidwa ndi chiwanda amene anali wosaona ndi wosamva ndipo Yesu anamuchiritsa kotero kuti atatha anayamba kumva ndi kuona.
23 And all the multitudes were amazed, and said, Can this be the son of David?
Anthu onse anadabwa ndipo anati, “Kodi uyu ndi kukhala mwana wa Davide?”
24 But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This man doth not cast out demons, but by Beelzebub the prince of the demons.
Koma Afarisi atamva zimenezi, anati, “Uyu amatulutsa ziwanda ndi mphamvu ya Belezebabu mkulu wa ziwandazo.”
25 And knowing their thoughts he said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:
Yesu anadziwa maganizo awo ndipo anawawuza kuti, “Ufumu uliwonse ukagawanika mwa iwo udzawonongeka ndi mzinda uliwonse kapena banja likagawanika, mwa izo zokha sizidzayima.
26 and if Satan casteth out Satan, he is divided against himself; how then shall his kingdom stand?
Ngati Satana atulutsa Satana, iye adzigawa yekha. Nanga ufumu wake ungayime bwanji?
27 And if I by Beelzebub cast out demons, by whom do your sons cast them out? therefore shall they be your judges.
Ndipo ngati Ine nditulutsa ziwanda ndi Belezebule, anthu anu amatulutsa ziwandazo ndi chiyani? Potero tsono adzakhala oweruza anu.
28 But if I by the Spirit of God cast out demons, then is the kingdom of God come upon you.
Koma ngati Ine ndimatulutsa ziwanda ndi Mzimu wa Mulungu, pamenepo ufumu wa Mulungu wafika pa inu.
29 Or how can one enter into the house of the strong [man], and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong [man]? and then he will spoil his house.
“Kapenanso wina aliyense angathe bwanji kulowa mʼnyumba ya munthu wamphamvu ndi kunyamulamo zinthu zake, sipokhapo atayamba wamanga munthu wa mphamvuyo? Pamenepo iye akhoza kuba mʼnyumbamo.
30 He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth.
“Iye amene sali ndi Ine atsutsana nane ndipo iye amene sasonkhanitsa pamodzi ndi Ine amamwaza.
31 Therefore I say unto you, Every sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men; but the blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven.
Ndipo potero Ine ndikuwuzani inu, tchimo lililonse ndi cha mwano chilichonse zidzakhululukidwa kwa anthu koma chamwano cha pa Mzimu Woyera, sichidzakhululukidwa.
32 And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him; but whosoever shall speak against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, nor in that which is to come. (aiōn g165)
Aliyense amene anena mawu otsutsana ndi Mwana wa Munthu adzakhululukidwa koma aliyense wonena motsutsana ndi Mzimu Woyera sadzakhululukidwa mu mʼbado uno kapena umene ukubwerawo. (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.
“Mtengo wabwino umabala zipatso zabwino ndipo mtengo woyipa umabalanso zipatso zoyipa, pajatu mtengo umadziwika ndi zipatso zake.
34 Ye offspring of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
Ana anjoka inu, woyipa inu, mungathe bwanji kuyankhula kanthu kalikonse kabwino? Pakuti pakamwa pamayankhula zosefuka kuchokera mu mtima.
35 The good man out of his good treasure bringeth forth good things: and the evil man out of his evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.
Munthu wabwino amatulutsa zinthu zabwino zomwe zili mumtima mwake ndipo munthu woyipa amatulutsanso zinthu zoyipa zomwe zili mwa iye.
36 And I say unto you, that every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
Ine ndikukuwuzani kuti pa tsiku la chiweruziro munthu adzazengedwa mlandu chifukwa cha mawu aliwonse wopanda pake amene anayankhula.
37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
Pakuti ndi mawu anu mudzapezeka osalakwa ndiponso ndi mawu anu mudzapezeka olakwa.”
38 Then certain of the scribes and Pharisees answered him, saying, Teacher, we would see a sign from thee.
Pamenepo ena mwa Afarisi ndi aphunzitsi amalamulo anati kwa Iye, “Aphunzitsi, tikufuna tione chizindikiro chodabwitsa kuchokera kwa Inu.”
39 But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it but the sign of Jonah the prophet:
Iye anayankha kuti, “Mʼbado woyipa ndi wachigololo ufunsa za chizindikiro chodabwitsa! Koma ndi chimodzi chomwe sichidzapatsidwa kwa inu kupatula chizindikiro cha mneneri Yona.
40 for as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the whale; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
Pakuti monga Yona anali mʼmimba mwa nsomba yayikulu masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku, momwemonso Mwana wa Munthu adzakhala masiku atatu, usana ndi usiku, mʼkati mwa nthaka.
41 The men of Nineveh shall stand up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, a greater than Jonah is here.
Anthu a ku Ninive adzayimirira pachiweruzo ndi mʼbado uwu ndi kuwutsutsa pakuti iwo analapa Yona atalalikira ndipo tsopano wamkulu kuposa Yona ali pano.
42 The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, a greater than Solomon is here.
Mfumu yayikazi yakummwera idzayimirira pa tsiku lachiweruzo ndi mʼbado uwu ndipo idzawutsutsa pakuti inachokera kumathero a dziko lapansi kudzamva nzeru za Solomoni, ndipo pano pali woposa Solomoni.
43 But the unclean spirit, when he is gone out of the man, passeth through waterless places, seeking rest, and findeth it not.
“Pamene mzimu woyipa utuluka mwa munthu, umadutsa malo wopanda madzi kufunafuna malo opumulira ndipo suwapeza.
44 Then he saith, I will return into my house whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished.
Pamenepo umati, ‘Ndidzabwerera ku nyumba yanga komwe ndinatuluka.’ Pamene ufika, upeza mopanda kanthu, mosesedwa ndi mokonzedwa bwino.
45 Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man becometh worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this evil generation.
Kenaka umapita kukatenga mizimu ina isanu ndi iwiri yoyipa kwambiri kuposa uwowo ndipo imapita ndi kukakhala mʼmenemo. Choncho khalidwe lotsiriza la munthu uyu limakhala loyipa kwambiri kuposa loyambalo. Umo ndi mmene zidzakhalire ndi mʼbado oyipawu.”
46 While he was yet speaking to the multitudes, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without, seeking to speak to him.
Pamene Yesu anali kuyankhulabe ndi gulu la anthu, amayi ndi abale ake anayimirira kunja, akufuna kuyankhulana naye.
47 And one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, seeking to speak to thee.
Wina anamuwuza Iye kuti, “Amayi ndi abale anu ayima kunjaku akufuna kuyankhulana nanu.”
48 But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?
Iye anayankha kuti, “Amayi anga ndani ndipo abale anga ndi ndani?”
49 And he stretched forth his hand towards his disciples, and said, Behold, my mother and my brethren!
Ndipo akuloza ophunzira ake, Iye anati, “Awa ndiwo amayi anga ndi abale anga.
50 For whosoever shall do the will of my Father who is in heaven, he is my brother, and sister, and mother.
Pakuti aliyense amene achita chifuniro cha Atate anga akumwamba ndiye mʼbale wanga, mlongo wanga ndi amayi anga.”
