Matthew 21
1 And when they had drawn near to Jerusalem, and had arrived at Bethphage, at the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,
Yesu na vawuliwa vaki pavahegelili, ku Yelusalemu na kuhika Betifage kuchitumbi cha Mizeituni ndi akavatuma vawuliwa vaki vavili,
2 saying to them: “Go into the town that is opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Release them, and lead them to me.
akavajovela, “Muhamba pachijiji cha palongolo yinu yati mwikolela lipunda na mwana waki vakungiwi, muvawopola muniletelayi nene.
3 And if anyone will have said anything to you, say that the Lord has need of them. And he will promptly dismiss them.”
Ngati mundu akavakota chochoha, mumjovela, ‘Bambu akumgana,’ Bahapo yati akuvalekela.”
4 Now all this was done in order to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet, saying,
Mambu ago gahengiki muni malovi geajovili Mlota wa Chapanga gatimilayi,
5 “Tell the daughter of Zion: Behold, your king comes to you meekly, sitting on a donkey and on a colt, the son of one accustomed to the yoke.”
“Ujovela muji wa Siyoni, Lola, Nkosi waku akukubwelela! Mngolongondi na akweli panani ya lipunda, mwana wa lipunda hinyama yeyigega ndwika.”
6 Then the disciples, going out, did just as Jesus instructed them.
Mewa vawuliwa vaki vakahamba na kukita ngati chevalagaziwi na Yesu.
7 And they brought the donkey and the colt, and they laid their garments on them, and they helped him sit upon them.
Vamletili lipunda na mwana waki, vakavayambatisa nyula panani yavi, na Yesu akatama panani yaki.
8 Then a very numerous crowd spread their garments on the way. But others cut branches from the trees and scattered them on the way.
Msambi uvaha wa vandu vadandisi nyula zavi munjila na vangi vadumwili matutu ga mikongo na kudandasa munjila.
9 And the crowds that preceded him, and those that followed, cried out, saying: “Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest!”
Msambi wa vandu vevamlongolili na vevamulandili vala vakajova kwa lwami luvaha. “Ulumbiwa Mwana wa Daudi! Amotisiwa mwenuyo mweibwela paliina la Bambu! Chapanga alumbiwa kunani!”
10 And when he had entered into Jerusalem, the entire city was stirred up, saying, “Who is this?”
Yesu peavi mukuyingila ku Yelusalemu, muji woha wakenyemwiki. Vandu vakotanayi, “Mwenuyu ndi yani?”
11 But the people were saying, “This is Jesus, the Prophet from Nazareth of Galilee.”
Vandu vangi pagati ya msambi wula vakayangula, “Mwenuyu ndi Yesu mlota wa Chapanga, kuhuma ku Nazaleti muji wa Galilaya.”
12 And Jesus entered into the temple of God, and he cast out all who were selling and buying in the temple, and he overturned the tables of the money changers and the chairs of the vendors of doves.
Yesu ayingili paluvanja lwa Nyumba ya Chapanga na kuvavinga vandu voha, vevagulisa na kugula vindu pala, azing'anambwisi meza za vabadilisha mashonga. Pamonga na vigoda vya vagulisa ngunda.
13 And he said to them: “It is written: ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer. But you have made it into a den of robbers.’”
Akavajovela “Yiyandikwi mu Mayandiku Gamsopi, ‘Nyumba yangu yati yikemiwa nyumba ya kumyupila Chapanga.’ Nambu nyenye muyikitili kuvya libokoselu la vanyagaji.”
14 And the blind and the lame drew near to him in the temple; and he healed them.
Vangalola na vachindamile vamhambili Yesu pa Nyumba ya Chapanga, mwene avalamisi.
15 Then the leaders of the priests and the scribes became indignant, seeing the miracles that he wrought, and the children crying out in the temple, saying, “Hosanna to the Son of David!”
Nambu Vamteta vakulu va Chapanga na vawula va malagizu vamemili ligoga ndava ya kulola mambu gabwina geahengili Yesu, mewa vana vevajovayi kwa lwami luvaha mu Nyumba ya Chapanga, “Ulumbiwa Mwana wa Daudi.”
16 And they said to him, “Do you hear what these ones are saying?” But Jesus said to them, “Certainly. Have you never read: For out of the mouth of babes and infants, you have perfected praise?”
Vakamjovela, “Wu, wiyuwana vana ava chevijova?” Yesu akavayangula, “Ena, niyuwana! Wu, mwangasoma mu Mayandiku Gamsopi? Mumilomo ya vana vadebe na vang'enya ndi ujipatili ulumba kamili.”
17 And leaving them behind, he went out, beyond the city, into Bethania, and he lodged here.
Kangi Yesu akavaleka, akawuka pamuji wenuwo, akahamba ku Betania akagona kwenuko.
18 Then, as he was returning to the city in the morning, he was hungry.
Chilau yaki lukela Yesu peavi mukuwuya kumuji wenuwo, njala yamvinili.
19 And seeing a certain fig tree beside the way, he approached it. And he found nothing on it, except only leaves. And he said to it, “May fruit never spring forth from you, for all time.” And immediately the fig tree was dried up. (aiōn g165)
Auwene mkongo wa mtini mumuhana ya njila, ndi auhambalili, nambu akolili lepi chindu mumkongo wula nga mahamba gene, ndi aupeli likoto akaujovela gakotoka kupambika matunda kutumbula lelu hati magono goha! Bahapo mkongo wula wanyalili. (aiōn g165)
20 And seeing this, the disciples wondered, saying, “How did it dry up so quickly?”
Vawuliwa pavauweni vakakangaswa na lijambu lenilo vakajova, “Ndava kyani mkongo wa mtini unyalili chighafula?”
21 And Jesus responded to them by saying: “Amen I say to you, if you have faith and do not hesitate, not only shall you do this, concerning the fig tree, but even if you would say to this mountain, ‘Take and cast yourself into the sea,’ it shall be done.
Yesu akavayangula, “Nikuvajovela chakaka, ngati mwisadika changali mtahu, yati mwihotola lepi ndu kuhenga ago, nambu hati kuchijovela chitumbi, ‘Utupuka apa, na ukujitaga munyanja,’ Yati yivya mewa.
22 And all things whatsoever that you shall ask for in prayer: believing, you shall receive.”
Na chochoha chemwiyupa kwa kumuyupa Chapanga, mwakasadika yati mwipata.”
23 And when he had arrived at the temple, as he was teaching, the leaders of the priests and the elders of the people approached him, saying: “By what authority do you do these things? And who has given this authority to you?”
Yesu ayingili mu Nyumba ya Chapanga kuwula, hinu peavi mukuwula. Vamteta vakulu na vagogo va vandu vamkotili “Wihenga mambu genago kwa uhotola woki? Ndi yani mweakupeli uhotola wenuwo?”
24 In response, Jesus said to them: “I also will question you with one word: if you tell me this, I also will tell you by what authority I do these things.
Yesu akavayangula, “Nene yati nikuvakota likotesi limonga, na ngati muniyangwili ndi nene yati nikuvajovela nihenga mambu aga kwa uhotola woki.
25 The baptism of John, where was it from? Was it from heaven, or from men?” But they thought within themselves, saying:
Wu, uhotola wa Yohani Mbatizaji wahumili koki? Wu, wahumili kunani kwa Chapanga amala wahumili kwa vandu?” Nambu vakajovesana vene kwa vene, “Tikajova, ‘Wahumili kunani kwa Chapanga? Yati akutikota, ndava kyani nakusadika?’
26 “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say to us, ‘Then why did you not believe him?’ But if we say, ‘From men,’ we have the crowd to fear, for they all hold John to be a prophet.”
Na ngati tijovili, gahumili kwa vandu, tiyogopa msambi wa vandu muni voha viyidakila kuvya Yohani ndi mlota wa Chapanga.”
27 And so, they answered Jesus by saying, “We do not know.” So he also said to them: “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.
Hinu vamyangwili, “Nakumanya!” Namwene Yesu akavajovela na nene nikuvajovela lepi, nihenga mambu aga kwa uhotola woki.
28 But how does it seem to you? A certain man had two sons. And approaching the first, he said: ‘Son, go out today to work in my vineyard.’
“Nyenye mwihololela wuli, mundu mmonga avili na vasongolo vavili. Akatumbula kumjovela yula wa kutumbula, mwana vangu lelu uhamba kumgunda wangu wa mizabibu ukahenga lihengu.
29 And responding, he said, ‘I am not willing.’ But afterwards, being moved by repentance, he went.
Msongolo yula akamyangula, ‘Mbwitu,’ Nambu mwanakandahi ang'anamwisi maholo gaki, akahamba kuhenga lihengu.
30 And approaching the other, he spoke similarly. And answering, he said, ‘I am going, lord.’ And he did not go.
Yula dadi akamjovela mwana wa pili galagala. Namwene akayidakila ena Dadi, Nambu nakuhamba.
31 Which of the two did the will of the father?” They said to him, “The first.” Jesus said to them: “Amen I say to you, that tax collectors and prostitutes shall precede you, into the kingdom of God.
Wu, yani pagati ya vavili venavo mweahengili maganu ga dadi waki?” Vakamyangula, “Mwana wa utumbula yula.” Hinu, Yesu akavajovela, “Nikuvajovela chakaka vatola kodi na vakemi yati vakuvalongolela kuyingila muunkosi wa Chapanga.”
32 For John came to you in the way of justice, and you did not believe him. But the tax collectors and the prostitutes believed him. Yet even after seeing this, you did not repent, so as to believe him.
Muni Yohani abwelili kwinu na kuvalangisa njila ya kumganisa Chapanga, nyenye nakuyisadika, nambu vatola kodi na vakemi vamsadiki. Hati pamonga na kugalola genago goha, nambu nyenye nakumuwuyila Chapanga na kumsadika.
33 Listen to another parable. There was a man, the father of a family, who planted a vineyard, and surrounded it with a hedge, and dug a press in it, and built a tower. And he loaned it out to farmers, and he set out to sojourn abroad.
Yesu akajova, “Myuwana luhumu lungi,” Mundu mmonga mkolo nyumba alimili mgunda wa mizabibu, akatindisila luwumba, na kugima chiliva cha kuminyila divayi na akajenga mnala. Kangi avakodisi valimaji, akahamba mulima wa kutali.
34 Then, when the time of the fruits drew near, he sent his servants to the farmers, so that they might receive its fruits.
Lukumbi lwa kubena pwalahikili, ndi avatumili vatumisi vaki kwa valimaji vala, muni vakatola lilundu laki la mabenu.
35 And the farmers apprehended his servants; they struck one, and killed another, and stoned yet another.
Nambu valimaji vala vavakamwili vatumisi venavo, mmonga vakamtova na yungi vakamkoma, na yungi vakamtova na maganga.
36 Again, he sent other servants, more than before; and they treated them similarly.
Kangi mkolo mgunda akavatuma vatumisi vangi vamahele neju kuliku vala va kutumbula. Hinu valimajii vala vakavahengela mewawa.
37 Then, at the very end, he sent his son to them, saying: ‘They will revere my son.’
Pamwishu ndi amtumili mwana waki, muni aholalili kuvya. Chakaka yati vakumutopesa mwana vangu.
38 But the farmers, seeing the son, said among themselves: ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and then we will have his inheritance.’
Nambu valimaji vala pevamuwene mwana waki, vakajovesana vene kwa vene, mwenuyu ndi mhali waki, timkoma muni mgunda wenuwu tihala tete!
39 And apprehending him, they cast him outside the vineyard, and they killed him.
Hinu, vakamkamula na kumtaga kuvala ya mgunda wa mizabibu, ndi vakamkoma.
40 Therefore, when the lord of the vineyard arrives, what will he do to those farmers?”
Kangi Yesu akavakota “Hinu mkolo mgunda wa mizabibu paibwela yati akuvakita kyani valimaji vala?”
41 They said to him, “He will bring those evil men to an evil end, and he will loan out his vineyard to other farmers, who shall repay to him the fruit in its time.”
“Vene vakamyangula, yati akuvakoma valimaji venavo na mgunda wula yati akuvapela valimaji vangi vevakumpela lilundu laki la mabenu lukumbi lwa kubena.”
42 Jesus said to them: “Have you never read in the Scriptures: ‘The stone that the builders have rejected has become the cornerstone. By the Lord has this been done, and it is wonderful in our eyes?’
Yesu akavajovela, “Wu, mwangasoma mu Mayandiku Gamsopi?” Liganga levabeli vakujenga, hinu ndi liganga likulu la kukamulila nyumba Bambu ndi mweahengili lijambu lenili, ndi la kukangasa neju kwitu!
43 Therefore, I say to you, that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you, and it shall be given to a people who shall produce its fruits.
Ndava muni nikuvajovela, “Unkosi wa Chapanga yati uwusiwa kwinu na yati vipewa vandu va mulima wungi vala vevihenga gegakumganisa Chapanga.”
44 And whoever will have fallen on this stone shall be broken, yet truly, on whomever it shall fall, it will crush him.”
Yeyoha mweigwilila paliganga lenilo yati idenyekana hipandi hipandi na yeyoha mwelikumgwilila yati likumuyaga nyiminyimi.
45 And when the leaders of the priests, and the Pharisees had heard his parables, they knew that he was speaking about them.
Ndi vamteta vakulu na Vafalisayu pevayuwini miluhumu ya Yesu ndi vamanyalili kuvya akuvajova vene.
46 And though they sought to take hold of him, they feared the crowds, because they held him to be a prophet.
Vene pevalondili njila ya kumkamula, vayogwipi msambi wa vandu muni vene vammanyili kuvya mwene ndi mlota wa Chapanga.
