< Matthew 21 >
1 And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and came unto Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,
Wana bazalaki kopusana pene ya Yelusalemi mpe bakomaki pene ya Betifaje, na ngomba ya banzete ya olive, Yesu atindaki bayekoli mibale.
2 saying unto them, Go into the village that is over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose [them], and bring [them] unto me.
Alobaki na bango: — Bokende na mboka oyo ezali liboso na bino; tango kaka bokokota na mboka yango, bokomona ane ya mwasi bakanga na singa, mpe mwana ya ane pembeni na yango; bofungola nyonso mibale mpe bomemela Ngai yango.
3 And if any one say aught unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.
Soki moto moko alobi na bino likambo na tina na yango, bozongisela ye: « Nkolo azali na bosenga na yango. » Mpe, mbala moko, akotika yango kokende.
4 Now this is come to pass, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying,
Makambo wana nyonso esalemaki mpo ete maloba oyo mosakoli aloba ekokisama:
5 Tell ye the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, Meek, and riding upon an ass, And upon a colt the foal of an ass.
« Boloba na Siona, mboka kitoko: ‹ Tala, mokonzi na yo azali koya epai na yo, atonda na boboto, avandi na likolo ya ane ya mwasi, na likolo ya mwana ya ane, mwana ya nyama oyo ememaka mikumba. › »
6 And the disciples went, and did even as Jesus appointed them,
Bayekoli bakendeki mpe basalaki ndenge kaka Yesu atindaki bango.
7 and brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their garments; and he sat thereon.
Bamemaki ane ya mwasi elongo na mwana ya ane, batandaki bilamba na bango na mikongo na yango; mpe Yesu avandaki na likolo na yango.
8 And the most part of the multitude spread their garments in the way; and others cut branches from the trees, and spread them in the way.
Bato ebele batandaki bilamba na bango na nzela; bamosusu bakataki bitape na likolo ya banzete mpe batandaki yango lisusu na nzela.
9 And the multitudes that went before him, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed [is] he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.
Bato oyo bazalaki kotambola liboso ya Yesu mpe ba-oyo bazalaki kolanda sima bazalaki koganga: « Ozana na Mwana na Davidi! Tika ete apambolama, Ye oyo ayei na Kombo ya Nkolo! Ozana na bisika oyo eleki Likolo! »
10 And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was stirred, saying, Who is this?
Tango Yesu akotaki kati na Yelusalemi, engumba mobimba eninganaki; bazalaki kotuna: — Oyo lisusu nani?
11 And the multitudes said, This is the prophet, Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.
Bato bazalaki kozongisa: — Ezali mosakoli Yesu, moto ya Nazareti ya Galile!
12 And Jesus entered into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money-changers, and the seats of them that sold the doves;
Yesu akotaki kati na lopango ya Tempelo, abenganaki bato nyonso oyo bazalaki koteka mpe kosomba biloko kati na Tempelo; abalolaki bamesa ya bato oyo bazalaki kobongola mbongo mpe bakiti ya ba-oyo bazalaki koteka bibenga.
13 and he saith unto them, It is written, My house shall be called a house of prayer: but ye make it a den of robbers.
Alobaki na bango: — Ekomama: « Ndako na Ngai ekobengama Ndako ya losambo; » kasi bino, bozali kokomisa yango penza nganda ya miyibi!
14 And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.
Bakufi miso mpe bato oyo batambola tengu-tengu bapusanaki pene na Yesu kati na lopango ya Tempelo, mpe abikisaki bango.
15 But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children that were crying in the temple and saying, Hosanna to the son of David; they were moved with indignation,
Bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe balakisi ya Mobeko basilikaki makasi tango bamonaki bikamwa oyo Yesu asalaki mpe ndenge bana bazalaki koganga kati na lopango ya Tempelo: « Ozana na Mwana na Davidi! »
16 and said unto him, Hearest thou what these are saying? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea: did ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?
Balobaki na Yesu: — Ozali koyoka makambo oyo bazali koloba? Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Iyo! Boni, botikala nanu kotanga te: « Wuta na minoko ya bana mike, mpe ya bana oyo bazali nanu komela mabele, ozwaki lokumu na Yo? »
17 And he left them, and went forth out of the city to Bethany, and lodged there.
Bongo atikaki bango, abimaki longwa na engumba mpe akendeki na Betani epai wapi alekisaki butu.
18 Now in the morning as he returned to the city, he hungered.
Na tongo-tongo ya mokolo oyo elandaki, wana azalaki kozonga na engumba, ayokaki nzala.
19 And seeing a fig tree by the way side, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only; and he saith unto it, Let there be no fruit from thee henceforward for ever. And immediately the fig tree withered away. (aiōn )
Amonaki nzete moko ya figi pembeni ya nzela, apusanaki pene na yango; kasi amonaki eloko moko te na nzete yango, kaka makasa. Alobaki na nzete yango: — Okobotaka lisusu mbuma te mpo na libela. Mpe kaka na tango wana, nzete ya figi ekawukaki. (aiōn )
20 And when the disciples saw it, they marvelled, saying, How did the fig tree immediately wither away?
Tango bayekoli bamonaki bongo, bakamwaki mingi mpe batunaki: — Ndenge nini nzete ya figi ekawuki kaka boye na mbala moko?
21 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do what is done to the fig tree, but even if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou taken up and cast into the sea, it shall be done.
Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Nazali koloba na bino penza ya solo: soki bozali na kondima mpe botie tembe te, bokoki kaka te kosala makambo oyo Ngai nasali na nzete ya figi oyo, kasi bokoki mpe koloba na ngomba wana: « Longwa wana mpe mibwaka na ebale, » yango ekosalema solo.
22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
Soki bozali na kondima, bokozwa nyonso oyo bokosenga kati na losambo.
23 And when he was come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came unto him as he was teaching, and said, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority?
Yesu akotaki na lopango ya Tempelo; mpe wana azalaki koteya, bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe bakambi ya bato bapusanaki pene na Ye. Batunaki: — Na kombo ya bokonzi nini ozali kosala biloko oyo? Nani apesi yo bokonzi yango?
24 And Jesus answered and said unto them, I also will ask you one question, which if ye tell me, I likewise will tell you by what authority I do these things.
Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Ngai mpe, nazali kotuna bino motuna moko. Soki kaka bopesi Ngai eyano, nakoyebisa bino soki na kombo ya bokonzi nini nazali kosala makambo yango.
25 The baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven or from men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say unto us, Why then did ye not believe him?
Libatisi ya Yoane ewutaki na Nzambe to ewutaki na bato? Bakomaki kokabola makanisi bango na bango: — Soki tolobi: « Ewutaki na Nzambe, » akotuna biso lisusu: « Bongo mpo na nini bondimaki ye te? »
26 But if we shall say, From men; we fear the multitude; for all hold John as a prophet.
Soki mpe tolobi: « Ewutaki na bato, » wana tosengeli kobanga bato, pamba te bato nyonso bazwaka Yoane lokola mosakoli.
27 And they answered Jesus, and said, We know not. He also said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.
Boye, bazongiselaki Yesu: — Toyebi te! Yesu mpe alobaki na bango: — Ngai mpe, nakoyebisa bino te soki na kombo ya bokonzi nini nazali kosala makambo yango.
28 But what think ye? A man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to-day in the vineyard.
Yesu alobaki na bango lisusu: — Bokanisi nini na tina na lisolo oyo? Moto moko azalaki na bana mibali mibale; akendeki epai ya mwana ya liboso mpe alobaki na ye: « Mwana na ngai, kende lelo kosala na elanga ya vino. »
29 And he answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented himself, and went.
Mwana azongisaki: « Naboyi. » Kasi sima na mwa tango, abongolaki makanisi mpe akendeki na elanga yango.
30 And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I [go], sir: and went not.
Tata akendeki epai ya mwana mosusu mpe alobaki na ye kaka ndenge moko. Mwana yango azongisaki: « Malamu, nkolo na ngai, nakeyi! » Kasi akendeki te.
31 Which of the two did the will of his father? They say, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, that the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.
Nani kati na bango mibale akokisaki mokano ya tata na ye? Bazongisaki: — Mwana ya liboso. Yesu alobaki na bango: — Nazali koloba na bino penza ya solo: bafutisi mpako mpe basi ya ndumba bakokota na Bokonzi ya Nzambe liboso na bino,
32 For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not; but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye saw it, did not even repent yourselves afterward, that ye might believe him.
pamba te Yoane ayaki nde epai na bino mpo na kolakisa bino nzela ya bosembo, kasi bondimaki ye te; nzokande, bafutisi mpako mpe basi ya ndumba bandimaki ye. Atako bomonaki yango na miso na bino, kasi bobongolaki kaka mitema te mpe bondimaki ye kaka te.
33 Hear another parable: There was a man that was a householder, who planted a vineyard, and set a hedge about it, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into another country.
Boyoka lisese mosusu: Moto moko alonaki elanga ya vino, atongaki lopango zingazinga na yango, atimolaki ekamolelo bambuma ya vino mpe atongaki ndako molayi ya bakengeli. Sima, apesaki elanga yango na maboko ya basali mpo ete bakoma kofutela yango, mpe akendeki na mobembo.
34 And when the season of the fruits drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, to receive his fruits.
Tango eleko ya kobuka bambuma ekomaki pene, atindaki basali na ye epai ya bafuteli elanga, mpo ete bakende kokongola bambuma na ye;
35 And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.
kasi bafuteli elanga bakangaki basali yango; babetaki moko, babomaki mosusu, mpe babambaki oyo ya misato mabanga.
36 Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them in like manner.
Atindaki basali mosusu ebele koleka ba-oyo ya liboso; kasi bafuteli elanga basalaki bango ndenge kaka basalaki ba-oyo ya liboso.
37 But afterward he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son.
Na suka, atindelaki bango mwana na ye ya mobali mpe amilobelaki: « Solo, bakotosa mwana na ngai! »
38 But the husbandmen, when they saw the son, said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and take his inheritance.
Kasi tango bafuteli elanga bamonaki mwana yango, balobanaki bango na bango: « Tala mokitani ya libula ya elanga! Boya, toboma ye mpo ete libula ya elanga ekoma ya biso! »
39 And they took him, and cast him forth out of the vineyard, and killed him.
Bakangaki ye, babwakaki ye na libanda ya elanga ya vino mpe babomaki ye.
40 When therefore the lord of the vineyard shall come, what will he do unto those husbandmen?
Tango nkolo elanga ya vino akoya, akosala bafuteli elanga wana nini?
41 They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those miserable men, and will let out the vineyard unto other husbandmen, who shall render him the fruits in their seasons.
Bazongisaki: — Akobomisa bato mabe wana na kufa moko ya somo penza, akopesa elanga yango ya vino na maboko ya bafuteli mosusu oyo bakobanda kofutaka ye ndambo na ye ya bambuma, na eleko oyo babukaka yango.
42 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, The same was made the head of the corner; This was from the Lord, And it is marvellous in our eyes?
Yesu alobaki na bango: — Nanu botanga te kati na Makomi: « Libanga oyo batongi ndako babwakaki ekomi libanga ya songe ya ndako, mpe esimbi ndako mobimba? Nkolo asalaki bongo, mpe ezali penza likambo ya kokamwa na miso na biso. »
43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken away from you, and shall be given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
Yango wana, nazali koyebisa bino ete Bokonzi ya Nzambe ekolongolama kati na bino mpo ete epesama na bato oyo bakokoka kolakisa misala na yango. [
44 And he that falleth on this stone shall be broken to pieces: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will scatter him as dust.
Moto oyo akokweya na likolo ya libanga yango akobukana ndambo na ndambo; kasi moto oyo libanga yango ekokweyela, ekopanza ye.]
45 And when the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.
Sima na bango koyoka masese na Ye, bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe Bafarizeo basosolaki ete Yesu azalaki koloba na tina na bango.
46 And when they sought to lay hold on him, they feared the multitudes, because they took him for a prophet.
Bazalaki koluka nzela ya kokanga Ye, kasi babangaki bato, pamba te bango nyonso bazalaki kozwa Yesu lokola mosakoli.
