Matthew 9
1 And he entered the ship, and passed over, and came into his own city.
Yesu walatanta mu bwato ne kutampuka lwenje, kuya kumunshi nkwalikwikala.
2 And behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed. And Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the palsied man: Son, be of good courage; your sins are forgiven you.
Kopeloko bantu nabambi balamuletela mulema watontola myendo kabali bamoneka pampasa. pakubona lushomo lwabo, Yesu walambila mulema uyo “Yumisha moyo omwanobe! bwipishi bwakobe bulalekelelwa.”
3 And behold, some of the scribes said within themselves: This man talks impiously.
Mpwalenseco beshikwiyisha milawo ya Mose nabambi, balatatika kumufwiya mumyoyo yabo ne kwambeti, “Uyu muntu lanyanshanga Lesa!”
4 And Jesus, perceiving their thoughts, said: Why do evil thoughts arise in your hearts?
Nomba Yesu pakwishiba miyeyo yabo walambeti, “Mukute kuyeyela cani bintu byaipa mumyoyo yenu?
5 For, which is easier, to say, Your sins are forgiven; or to say, Arise, and walk?
Capubako nicipeyo kwambeti, ‘Bwipishi bwakobe bulalekelelwa’ Nambi kwambeti, ‘nyamuka wende.’
6 But that you may know that the Son of man on earth has authority to forgive sins (then he said to the palsied man): Arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.
Nomba ndayandanga kwambeti mwinshibeti, Mwana Muntu ukute ngofu shakulekelela bwipishi pacishi capanshi pano.” Neco walambila mulema watontola myenda uyu, “Nyamuka manta mpasa yakobe, koya kwenu.”
7 And he arose, and departed to his house.
Popelapo muntu usa walanyamuka ne kuya kumunshi kwabo.
8 And when the multitude saw it, they were astonished, and glorified God, who had given such authority to men.
Bantu basa mpobalaboneco, balekatwa buyowa, ne kulumbanya Lesa walapa bantu ngofu shabwendeleshi shilicisa.
9 And as Jesus passed by from that place, he saw a man named Matthew, sitting at the custom-house; and he said to him: Follow me. And he arose and followed him.
Yesu mpwalikufumako walabona muntu walikukwiweti, Mateyo kaliwekala mukanda ka misonko, walamwambileti, “Nenjobe, nkonke.” Pacindi copeleco Mateyo walanyamuka ne kumukonkela.
10 And it came to pass that, while Jesus was reclining at table in his house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and reclined at table with him and his disciples.
Yesu mpwalikulya mu ng'anda ya Mateyo. Kwalesa beshimisonko bangi, ne beshi kwinsa byaipa, balesa kulya nendi pamo ne beshikwiya bakendi.
11 And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples: Why does your teacher eat with publicans and sinners?
Mpobalaboneco Bafalisi, balatatika kubepusha beshikwiya bakendi Yesu eti, “Inga bashikwiyisha benu balalingeconi pamo ne beshimisonko, ne beshi kwinsa byaipa?”
12 When Jesus heard it, he said to them: Those who are in health have no need of a physician, but those who are sick.
Nendi Yesu pakunyumfweco, walabakumbuleti, “Bantu balabulunga kukolwa nkabakute kuyanda mu ng'anga sobwe, nsombi balwashi ebakute kuyanda mung'anda.”
13 But go and learn what this means: I desire mercy, and not sacrifice. For I came not to call righteous men, but sinners to repentance.
“Nomba kamwiyani cilambanga maswi awa, alambangeti, ‘Nkandayandangeti bantu bampe milumbo sobwe, nsombi ndayandangeti bantu beenshilenga nkumbo kubanabo.’ Pakwinga nkandaleshila kukuwa bantu balulama sobwe, nsombi beshikwinsa byaipa.”
14 Then came to him the disciples of John, saying: Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but your disciples fast not?
Panyuma pakendi beshikwiya ba Yohane mubatishi, balesa kuli Yesu ne kumwipusheti, “Afwe, ne Bafalisi tukute kulikanisha kulya tunkanda twingi, nomba nicani beshikwiya benu nkabakute kulikanishapo?”
15 And Jesus said to them: Can the sons of the bride-chamber mourn while the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then will they fast.
Nendi Yesu walambeti, “Sena banendi shibwinga ngabalyetesha bacibanga pamo ne shibwinga? Ico nkacinshiki sobwe! Nomba nicikashike cindi ncotibakamufulepo shibwinga usa, popelapo nibakatatike kulikanisha kulya.
16 No one puts a patch of new cloth on an old garment; for that which is put in to fill it up, takes from the garment, and a worse rent is made.
“Muntu nkakute kumamika cikamba ca cikwisa ca lino lino ne kucitungila pa mwinjila ukulukulu, pakwinga cikamba ca cikwisa ca lino lino ngacikokonyana nekumatula uwo mwinjila ukulukulu, ne kumatuka kulico kukute kushiya cibwanko.
17 Nor do men put new wine into old bottles; if so, the bottles burst, and the wine runs out, and the bottles are lost. But they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.
Kayi paliya muntu ukute kubika waini mucifwafumwa cacipaya cakaindi sobwe, pakwinga nawinseco, cifwafumwa cacipaya ngacipasuka, waini ngautaika, nasho nkomwa ngashibula ncito. Waini walino lino bakute kubika munkomwa sha lino lino. Neco byonse bibili bikute kubambwa cena.”
18 While he was speaking these things to them, behold, a certain ruler came and did him homage, saying: My daughter is already dead; but come, lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.
Yesu kacamba, kwalesa mukulene wa Bayuda walesa kumusuntamina ne kwambeti, “Mwaname mutukashi ulipepi kufwa, ndapapata kamwisani mubike makasa enu palyendiye, kwambeti abe muyumi.”
19 And Jesus and his disciples arose and followed him.
Popelapo Yesu ne beshikwiya bakendi balanyamuka ne kuya nendi.
20 And behold, a woman that had been diseased with an issue of blood for twelve years, came behind him, and touched the fringe of his mantle.
Lino palikuba mutukashi walikukolwa bulwashi bwa mukunko kwa byaka likumi ne bibili, walesa cakunyuma kwa Yesu, ne kwisa kwikata kucelele kwa munganjo wa Yesu,
21 For she said within herself: If I may only touch his mantle, I shall be saved.
mumoyo mwakendi walikayeyeti, “Na njikatekowa munganjo wakendi ni nsengulwe.”
22 But Jesus turned, and saw her, and said: Daughter, be of good courage; your faith has saved you. And the woman was saved from that hour.
Yesu popelapo walacebuka ne kumubona mutukashi uyo, Yesu walambeti, “Yumisha moyo mwaname, lushomo lwakobe lulakupulushu.” Pacindi copeleco mutukashi usa walasengulwa.
23 And when Jesus came into the house of the ruler, and saw the minstrels and the multitude making lamentation,
Yesu mpwalashika ku ng'anda kwa mukulene wa Bayuda usa, walacana bantu kabalilisha mikonkobesho nebisekele, nabambi kabalyuma pacali kulila mibila.
24 he said to them: Depart; for the maid is not dead, but sleeps. And they derided him.
Lino nendi Yesu walabambileti, “Kamupulani mwense, kashimbi uyu uliya kufwa sobwe, nsombi wonowatulo.” Popelapo bangi balatatika kumuseka.
25 But when the multitude had been sent out, he went in, and took the maiden by the hand, and she arose.
Nomba bonse mpobalapulamo mu ng'anda, Yesu walaya kucimpetela nkwalikuba ne kuyakwikata kashimbi uyu pacikasa, popelapo walapunduka.
26 And the fame of this went abroad in all that land.
Impuwo iyi yalanyumfwika mucibela ca cishico.
27 And as Jesus was departing thence, two blind men followed him, crying out and saying: Son of David, have mercy on us.
Mpwalikufumako, bantu bashipilwa babili balamukonkela nekutatika kubilikisheti, “Amwe Yesu mwanendi Dafeti, tunyumfwilekoni nkumbo!”
28 And when he had entered the house, the blind men came to him. And Jesus said to them: Do you believe that I am able to do this? They said to him, Yes, Lord.
Yesu mpwalengila mung'anda bashipilwa babili basa balesa kulyendiye. nendi walabepusheti, “Sena mwashometi ngandimusengula?” Naboyo balakumbuleti, “Ee twashoma Nkambo.”
29 Then he touched their eyes, and said: According to your faith, be it to you.
Yesu walabekata mumenso, ne kwambeti, “Cinshike kwelana ne lushomo lwenu.”
30 And their eyes were opened; and Jesus strictly charged them, saying: See that no one know it,
Popelapo menso abo alacaluka, balacikonsha kubona. Nomba Yesu walabambilisheti kabataya bambileko muntu naba umo sobwe.
31 But they went out and spread his fame abroad in all that land.
Nomba kufumapo balo balatatika kumwaya mpuwo kumuntu uliyense mucibela ico.
32 And as they were going out, behold, they brought to him a dumb man possessed with a demon.
Mpobalapula mung'anda nekutatika kuya, bantu nabambi balaleta muntu walikuba cibulu, cebo cakwikatwa ne mushimu waipa.
33 And after the demon had been cast out, the dumb man spoke. And the multitudes were astonished, and said: Never was it seen thus in Israel.
Yesu mpwalaufunya mushimu waipa usa, muntusa walacikonsha kwamba. Nomba bantu balakankamana cakwinseti balatatika kwambeti, “Nkatuna tucibonapo cintu camushoboyu mu Islayeli!”
34 But the Pharisees said: He casts out the demons by the prince of the demons.
Nomba nabo Bafalisi balambeti, “Lamupanga ngofu shakufunya mishimu yaipa ni mukulene wa mishimu yaipa.”
35 And Jesus went through all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and curing every disease and every infirmity.
Yesu walendana mu minshi inene, ne ing'ana ing'ana, walikwiyisha mu misena yabo yakupaililamo, ne kukambauka Mulumbe Waina wa Bwami bwa Lesa, Kayi walasengula bulema bwapusanapusana ne malwashi apusana pusana.
36 And when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion for them, because they were troubled and scattered as sheep that had no shepherd.
Yesu mpwalabona makoto a bantu, walanyumfwa luse, pakwinga balikuba bantu balemenwa kayi batyompwa kubeti mbelele shabula mwembeshi.
37 Then he said to his disciples: The harvest is abundant, but the laborers are few.
Yesu walambila beshikwiya bakendi eti, “Butebushi bulafulu, nomba basebenshi balacepe.
38 Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.
Neco, kamusengani Lesa mwine butebushi kwambeti atume basebenshi bangi kuya kutebula.”
