Matthew 12
1 At that time Jesus went through the grain fields on the Sabbath. But His disciples became hungry and began to pluck heads of grain and to eat.
Panguva iyoyo Jesu akapfuura nomuminda yaiva nezviyo uri musi weSabata. Vadzidzi vake vakanga vava nenzara ndokubva vatanga kupurura hura hwezviyo zviya vachidya.
2 And upon seeing it the Pharisees said to Him, “Hey, your disciples are doing what is not lawful to do on a Sabbath!”
VaFarisi pavakazviona, vakati kwaari, “Tarirai, vadzidzi venyu vari kuita zvisingabvumirwi nomusi weSabata.”
3 But He said to them: “Have you not read what David did when he became hungry, he and those who were with him,
Akati kwavari, “Ko, hamuna kuverenga here zvakaitwa naDhavhidhi navamwe vake pavakanga vava nenzara?
4 how he entered the house of God and ate the loaves of presentation, which was not lawful for him to eat, nor for those with him, but only for the priests?
Akapinda muimba yaMwari iye nevamwe vake vakadya chingwa chitsvene chavaisabvumirwa kudya, asi chaingodyiwa navaprista chete.
5 Or have you not read in the Law that on the Sabbaths the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath and are guiltless?
Kana kuti hamuna kuverenga here muMurayiro kuti nomusi weSabata vaprista mutemberi vanosvibisa zuva iri asi vasingapiwi mhosva?
6 Yet I say to you that a greater than the temple is here.
Ndinokuudzai kuti mukuru kupfuura temberi ari pano.
7 If you had but known what this means, ‘I desire mercy and not sacrifice,’ you would not have condemned the innocent.
Dai maiziva zvinorehwa namashoko anoti, ‘Ndinoda ngoni, kwete zvibayiro,’ hamaizopa mhosva vasina mhosva.
8 Furthermore, the Son of the Man is Lord of the Sabbath!”
Nokuti Mwanakomana woMunhu ndiye Ishe weSabata.”
9 Now moving on from there He went into their synagogue.
Achipfuurira mberi kubva panzvimbo iyoyo, akapinda musinagoge ravo,
10 And there was a man with a withered hand! And they asked Him saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”—so that they might accuse Him.
uye makanga muno murume akanga ano ruoko rwakanga rwakakokonyara. Vachitsvaka mhosva yokupomera Jesu vakamubvunza vakati, “Zviri pamutemo here kuporesa nomusi weSabata?”
11 So He said to them: “What man will there be among you who has one sheep, and should this one fall into a ditch on the Sabbath, will he not lay hold of it and lift it out?
Akati kwavari, “Kana mumwe wenyu aine gwai, rikawira mugomba nomusi weSabata, haangatambanudzi ruoko rwake akaribudisa here?
12 Of how much more value then is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.”
Ko, zvino munhu anokosha zvakadini pane gwai! Naizvozvo zviri pamutemo kuita zvakanaka nomusi weSabata.”
13 Then He says to the man, “Stretch out your hand!” And he stretched it out, and it was restored whole like the other.
Akati kumurume uya, “Tambanudza ruoko rwako.” Akarutambanudza rukapora rukava sorumwe.
14 But going out the Pharisees plotted against Him, how they might destroy Him.
Asi vaFarisi vakabuda kundorangana kuti vangamuuraya sei.
15 So being aware, Jesus withdrew from there. And large crowds followed Him, and He healed them all.
Achiziva izvi, Jesu akabva panzvimbo iyi. Vazhinji vakamutevera, akaporesa varwere vavo vose.
16 Yet He warned them not to make Him known,
Akavayambira kuti vasafamba vachitaura kuti iye ndiye ani.
17 so that what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, namely:
Izvi zvakanga zvichizadzisa zvainge zvataurwa nomuprofita Isaya achiti:
18 “Behold my Servant whom I chose, my Beloved in whom my soul is well pleased! I will put my Spirit upon Him, and He will declare justice to the nations.
“Houno muranda wangu wandakasarudza, wandinoda, anondifadza; ndichaisa Mweya wangu paari, iye achazivisa nyika kutonga kwakarurama.
19 He will not quarrel nor cry-out, nor will anyone hear His voice in the streets.
Haazokakavari kana kuridza mhere; hakuna anozonzwa inzwi rake mumigwagwa.
20 A bruised reed He will not break, and a smoldering wick He will not quench, until He sends justice forth to victory.
Rutsanga rwakapwanyika haangarutyori, nomwenje unopfuta zvishoma haangaudzimi, kusvikira atungamirira kutonga kwakarurama mukukunda.
21 And in His name Gentiles will trust.”
Marudzi ose achaisa tariro yawo muzita rake.”
22 Then a demonized man was brought to Him, blind and mute, and He healed him, so that the A blind and B mute B spoke and A saw.
Ipapo vakauya kwaari nomurume akanga akabatwa nedhimoni ari bofu uye ari mbeveve, uye Jesu akamuporesa, zvokuti akagona zvose kutaura nokuona.
23 And all the crowds were amazed and said, “Might this not be the Christ, the Son of David?”
Vanhu vose vakashamiswa uye vakati, “Kuti uyu angava Mwanakomana waDhavhidhi here?”
24 But upon hearing it the Pharisees said, “This fellow does not cast out demons except by Beelzebul, ruler of the demons.”
Asi vaFarisi pavakanzwa izvi, vakati, “NdiBheerizebhubhi chete, muchinda wamadhimoni, waanodzinga naye madhimoni.”
25 But knowing their thoughts Jesus said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself becomes desolate, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.
Jesu akaziva pfungwa dzavo akati kwavari, “Umambo hwose hunozvipesanisa huchaparara, uye guta ripi neripi kana imba ipi neipi inozvipesanisa haingamiri.
26 So if Satan casts out Satan he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?
Zvino kana Satani achibudisa mumwe Satani, zvinoreva kuti anozvipesanisa. Saka umambo hwake hungamira sei?
27 And if I cast out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.
Zvino kana ini ndichibudisa madhimoni naBheerizebhubhi, ko, vanakomana venyu vanoabudisa naani?
28 But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, then surely the kingdom of God has come upon you.
Asi kana ndichibudisa madhimoni noMweya waMwari zvinoreva kuti umambo hwaMwari hwasvika kwamuri.
29 Or how can anyone go into the house of the strong man and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man? Then he can plunder the house.
“Uyezve, munhu angapinda sei mumba momunhu ane simba agoenda nezvinhu zvake asina kutanga asunga munhu uyu ane simba? Ipapo anogona kuzopamba imba yake.
30 “He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me scatters.
“Uyo asineni anopesana neni, nouyo asingaunganidzi neni anoparadza.
31 Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven people, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven people.
Uye naizvozvo ndinokuudzai kuti, vanhu vacharegererwa zvivi zvose nokumhura kwose asi kumhura Mweya hakuzoregererwi.
32 And whoever speaks a word against the Son of the Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, neither in the present age nor in the next. (aiōn g165)
Ani naani achataura zvakaipa pamusoro poMwanakomana woMunhu acharegererwa, asi ani naani achataura zvakaipa pamusoro poMweya Mutsvene haazoregererwi, kunyange panguva ino kana inouya. (aiōn g165)
33 “Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree rotten and its fruit rotten; for the tree is known by the fruit.
“Itai kuti muti uve wakanaka uye michero yawo ichava yakanaka kana kuti itai kuti muti uve wakaipa, uye michero yawo ichava yakaipa, nokuti muti uchazivikanwa nemichero yawo.
34 Brood of vipers! How can you, being malignant, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
Imi vana venyoka, zvingaitike here kuti imi makaipa kudai mutaure chipi zvacho chakanaka? Nokuti muromo unotaura zviri mumwoyo.
35 The good man out of the good reservoir brings forth good things, and the malignant man out of the malignant reservoir brings forth malignant things.
Munhu akanaka anobudisa zvakanaka zvagara zviri mudura romwoyo wake, uye munhu akaipa anobudisa zvakaipa zvagara zviri mudura romwoyo wake.
36 Furthermore, I say to you that for every useless word whatever that people may speak, they will give account of it in the Day of judgment.
Asi ndinokuudzai kuti vanhu vachazvidavirira pamusi wokutongwa pamusoro peshoko rimwe nerimwe ravakataura risina maturo.
37 For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”
Nokuti namashoko ako ucharuramisirwa, uye namashoko ako uchawanikwa une mhosva.”
38 Then some of the scribes and Pharisees reacted saying, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from you.”
Ipapo vamwe vaFarisi navadzidzisi vomurayiro vakati kwaari, “Mudzidzisi, tinoda kuona chiratidzo chechishamiso kubva kwamuri.”
39 But in answer He said to them: “A malignant and adulterous generation seeks a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.
Akavapindura akati, “Rudzi rwakaipa nerwoupombwe runokumbira chiratidzo! Asi hapana chiratidzo chichapiwa kwarwuri kunze chete kwechiratidzo chomuprofita Jona.
40 For just as Jonah was three days and three nights in the stomach of the sea monster, so will the Son of the Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
Nokuti Jona sezvaakaita mazuva matatu nousiku hutatu ari mudumbu rehove huru, saizvozvo Mwanakomana woMunhu achava mumwoyo wenyika kwamazuva matatu nousiku hutatu.
41 Ninevite men will arise with this generation at the judgment and will condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and really, a greater than Jonah is here.
Vanhu veNinevhe vachamira pakutongwa pamwe chete norudzi urwu uye vacharupa mhosva; nokuti vakatendeuka pakuparidza kwaJona, uye zvino mukuru kuna Jona ari pano.
42 The queen of the South will be raised with this generation at the judgment and she will condemn it, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and really, a greater than Solomon is here.
Mambokadzi weZasi achasimuka pakutongwa pamwe chete norudzi urwu uye acharupa mhosva, nokuti akabva kumagumo enyika kuti azoteerera kuuchenjeri hwaSoromoni, uye zvino mukuru kuna Soromoni ari pano.
43 “Now when an unclean spirit [demon] goes out from a man, it goes through arid places looking for rest, but finds none.
“Kana mweya wakaipa wabva pano munhu, unofamba-famba nomunzvimbo dzakaoma uchitsvaka zororo asi unorishaya.
44 Then it says, ‘I will return to my house from where I came.’ And coming it finds it unoccupied, swept and put in order.
Ipapo unoti, ‘Ndichadzokera kumba kwandakabva.’ Kana wasvika, unosvikowana imba iya isina ageremo, asi yakanyatsotsvairwa zvakachena nokunyatsorongedzwa zvakanaka.
45 Then it goes and takes along with itself seven different spirits, more malignant than itself, and going in it dwells there; and the last state of that man becomes worse than the first. Just so it will be for this malignant generation also.”
Ipapo unobva waenda kundotsvaka mimwe mweya minomwe yakaipa kukunda iwo, uye inopinda igogaramo. Uye kupedzisira kwomunhu uyu kwakaipa kupfuura kutanga kwake. Ndizvo zvazvichaita kurudzi urwu rwakaipa.”
46 But then, while He was still speaking to the crowds, His mother and brothers stood outside, seeking to speak with Him.
Jesu paakanga achiri kutaura kuvanhu vazhinji, mai vake navanunʼuna vake vakamira panze vachida kutaura naye.
47 So someone said to Him, “Look, your mother and your brothers are standing outside, seeking to speak with you.”
Mumwe akati kwaari, “Mai venyu navanunʼuna venyu vamire panze, vari kuda kutaura nemi.”
48 But in answer He said to the one who told Him, “Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?”
Akamupindura akati, “Ko, mai vangu ndiani, navanunʼuna vangu ndivanaani?”
49 And stretching out His hand toward His disciples He said: “Here are my mother and my brothers!
Achinongedzera vadzidzi vake akati, “Ava ndivo mai vangu navanunʼuna vangu.
50 For whoever does the will of my Father in the heavens, he is my brother and sister and mother.”
Nokuti ani naani anoita kuda kwaBaba vangu vari kudenga ndiye mununʼuna wangu nehanzvadzi yangu, namai vangu.”
