Luke 20
1 One day as Jesus was teaching the people in the temple courts and proclaiming the gospel, the chief priests and scribes, together with the elders, came up to Him.
Bumwi buzuba, Jesu naakali kuyiisya bantu mutempeli akoompolola majwi mabotu, bapayizi bapati abalembi bamulawu bakasika kulinguwe abapati.
2 “Tell us,” they said, “by what authority are You doing these things, and who gave You this authority?”
Bakaambula kabati, kabati kulinguwe, “Twaambile kuti mumanguzu aani mochita eezi zintu? Nakuti ngwani ukupa nguzu zyakuchita eezi zintu?”
3 “I will also ask you a question,” Jesus replied. “Tell Me:
Wakabasandula wati, “Ambebo ndilamubuzya mubuzyo. Amundaambile aatala
4 John’s baptism—was it from heaven, or from men?”
alubbabbatizyko lwa Joni. Lwakali kuzwa kujulu na kumuntu?”
5 They deliberated among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will ask, ‘Why did you not believe him?’
Bakaambula aakati kabo, kabati, “Twati, 'Kuzwa kujulu', ulati, 'Naambo nzi nimwakatamusyoma?'
6 But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are convinced that John was a prophet.”
Pesi twati, 'Luzwa kumuntu,' bantu balatutulula mabwe nkaambo bazi kuti Joni wakali musinsimi.”
7 So they answered that they did not know where it was from.
Aboobo bakasandula kuti tabazi pe kuti lwakali kuzwa kulini.
8 And Jesus replied, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Ambezo nsikomwaambila pe kuti ninguzu zyani nzyechita aazyo zintu eezi.”
9 Then He proceeded to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard, rented it out to some tenants, and went away for a long time.
Wakaambila bantu chikozyanisyo eechi, “Umwi mwaalumi wakabyala chiilili chama sansa, mpawo wakawubikka mumaboko anbaabo balima masansa waya kulimbi nyika kwachiindi chilamfu.
10 At harvest time, he sent a servant to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the tenants beat the servant and sent him away empty-handed.
Muchiindi chakasalwa, wakatuma mubelesi wakwe kulibasimuunda. Pesi basimuunda mbakamuuma akutanda katakwe chintu.
11 So he sent another servant, but they beat him and treated him shamefully, sending him away empty-handed.
Wakatuma lubo umbi mubelesi mpawo bakamuuma, akumunyansya akmutanda lubo katakwe chintu.
12 Then he sent a third, but they wounded him and threw him out.
Wakatuma lubo uumbi watatu alimwi bakamuchisa, akumutandila aanze.
13 ‘What shall I do?’ asked the owner of the vineyard. ‘I will send my beloved son. Perhaps they will respect him.’
Aboobo mwami wachilili wakati, 'Ndilachita biyeni? Ndilatuma mwandu wangu ngweyandisya amwi balikuyomulemeka.'
14 But when the tenants saw the son, they discussed it among themselves and said, ‘This is the heir. Let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’
Pesi nibakamubona, bakaambula aakato kabo, kabati, 'Ooyu ngosili lukono. Atumujaye kuchitila kuti lukono lube lwesu.'
15 So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
Bakamusowela kunze kwalubaya, mpawo bamujaya. Niinzi lino nchabatachite mwani muunda?
16 He will come and kill those tenants, and will give the vineyard to others.” And when the people heard this, they said, “May such a thing never happen!”
Ulasika azobajaye boonse balimi nbamasansa, mpawo ape muunda kuli bamwi.” Nibakamvwa eezyo bakati, “Inche atazizumini pe Leza kuti zibe oobo!”
17 But Jesus looked directly at them and said, “Then what is the meaning of that which is written: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone’?
Pesi Jesu wakabalanga, wati, “Aambaanzi malembe aaya? 'Bbwe ndibakaka bayaki, lyakazoba ndilyo lyakazooba bbwe lya chooko'?
18 Everyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom it falls will be crushed.”
Woonse uuwoda abbwe eelyo uyyotyoloolwa muzimpanzi. Pesi ooyo ngujliyoowida, liyoomu pwaya
19 When the scribes and chief priests realized that Jesus had spoken this parable against them, they sought to arrest Him that very hour. But they were afraid of the people.
Aboobo balembi bamulaw abapayizi bapatgi bakayanda kutgi bamujate muchiindi nchicheecho, nkaambo bakalizi kuti wakaambula chikozyanisyo eechi kaamba mbabo. Pesi bakayoowa bantu.
20 So they watched Him closely and sent spies who pretended to be sincere. They were hoping to catch Him in His words in order to hand Him over to the rule and authority of the governor.
Nibakamulangisisya obotu obotu, bakamutumina bantu bakali kulyeeneenia mbuli basalali, kuti bamuyandwiide mpatabisye kwaambuula, kuchitila kuti bamupede kabotu kulibasimilawu akumulawu wamweendelezi.
21 “Teacher,” they inquired, “we know that You speak and teach correctly. You show no partiality, but teach the way of God in accordance with the truth.
Bakabuzya kulinguwe bati, “Muyiisyi, tulizi kuti wambuula akuyiisya choonzyo, alimwi toktobelezyi mizeezo yabantu pe, pesi uyiisya choonzyo aatala anzila ya Lez.
22 Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?”
Chili mumulawu na kuti tubbadale mitelo kuli Siza nape?”
23 But Jesus saw through their duplicity and said to them,
Pesi Jesu wakalumvwisisisya lweeno lwabo, mpawo wakati kulimbabo,
24 “Show Me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?” “Caesar’s,” they answered.
“Amunditomndeezye kobili. Mbusyu azina lyani lilembedwe mpawo?” Bakaamba kuti, 'Nzizya siza.”
25 So Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.”
Wakati kulimbabo, “Akboobo amupe kuli Siza zintu zya Siza, akuli Leza zointu zya Leza.”
26 And they were unable to trap Him in His words before the people; and amazed at His answer, they fell silent.
Bakakachilwa nbulewusi muli nzyakaamba kunembo lyabantu. Bakayimikila akugamba aatala anandulo yakwe alimwi taakwe chimbi nchibakaamba.
27 Then some of the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to question Him.
Lino ma Sadiusi nibakasika kulinguwe, aabo baamba kuti takukwe bubuke kubafu,
28 “Teacher,” they said, “Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, the man is to marry his brother’s widow and raise up offspring for him.
bakamubuzya bati, “Muyisyi, Molzesi wakatulembela kuti na mukulana wamwaalumi wafwa, kali walikwete, pesi katakwe mwana, ooyo mwanike weelede kukwata bana mukulana azyalile mukulana mwana.
29 Now there were seven brothers. The first one married a wife, but died childless.
Kwakali bananyina bali kmusanu ababili, alimwi wakusanguna wakakwata, mpawo wakafwa katakwe mwana pe,
30 Then the second
awabili lubo.
31 and the third married the widow, and in the same way all seven died, leaving no children.
Watatu wakanjila munda, aboobo boonse musanu ababili bakanjla mung'anda pesi boonse bakafwa taakwe wakasiya mwana pe.
32 And last of all, the woman died.
Musule wakazoofwa alakwe mwanakazi.
33 So then, in the resurrection, whose wife will she be? For all seven were married to her.”
Lino kububuke, uyooba mwanakazi wanu? Nkaambo boonse kabali musanu ababili bakali mukwete.”
Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Bana balombe banyika iino balakwata alimwi balapegwa mulukwatano. (aiōn g165)
35 But those who are considered worthy to share in the age to come and in the resurrection from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
Pesi aabo bataka[jane bulemu bwakutambula kubuka kubafu taakwe nibatakakwate na kupegwa mulukwatano. (aiōn g165)
36 In fact, they can no longer die, because they are like the angels. And since they are sons of the resurrection, they are sons of God.
Tabakoyoofwa alimbi, nkaambo banooli bakozyania abangelo alimwi mbana ba Leza nkaambo mbana babubuke.
37 Even Moses demonstrates that the dead are raised, in the passage about the burning bush. For he calls the Lord ‘the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’
Pesi abalabo bafwide bazobusigwa, alakwe Mozesi wakatondeezya kubusena bwalusaka, awo nayita kuti Leza wa Abbulahamu a Leza wa Ayizeki a Leza wa Jakobo.
38 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to Him all are alive.”
Lino tachili Leza wabafwide pe, pesi wabawumi, nkaambo boonse bapona kulinguwe.
39 Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, You have spoken well!”
Bamwi balembi bamulawu bakasandula bati, “Muyiisyi wasandula kabotu.”
40 And they did not dare to question Him any further.
Nkaambo taakwe nibakachilikuyanda kweezya kumubuzya lubo iimbi mibuzyo.
41 Then Jesus declared, “How can it be said that the Christ is the Son of David?
Jesu wakatghji kulimbabo, “Baamba biyeni kuti Kkilisito mwana wa Davida?
42 For David himself says in the book of Psalms: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand
Nkaambo Davida lwakwe mu Bbjuku lya Ntembawuzyo waamba kuti, Mwami wakati ku Mwami wangu, 'Kkala kululyo lwangu,
43 until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.”’
mane ndikachite basinkondo nyokwe bakabe kunsi aamawulu aako'
44 Thus David calls Him ‘Lord.’ So how can He be David’s son?”
Aboobo Davida wiita Kkilisito kuti 'Mwami', mpo mwana wa Davida biyeni?”
45 In the hearing of all the people, Jesus said to His disciples,
Kabamvwide bantu boonse wakati kulibasikwiiya bakwe,
46 “Beware of the scribes. They like to walk around in long robes, and they love the greetings in the marketplaces, the chief seats in the synagogues, and the places of honor at banquets.
“Amubaschenjelele balembi bamilawu, bayanisya kweenda kabazweete majansi malamfu, kabayanda kujuzigwa kulinsini muzisambalilo, azyuuno zipati muzikombelo azyuuno zisumpukide kumapobwe.
47 They defraud widows of their houses, and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will receive greater condemnation.”
Balatola maanda aabamukabafu, akweeneena kumchita nkombyo ndamfu. Aba bayotambula kunyonyoonwa kupati.”
