Luke 20
1 Once when Jesus was teaching the people in the Temple, telling them the good news, some of the chief priests and religious teachers came with the elders.
Nerimwe ramazuva paakanga achidzidzisa vanhu mutemberi uye achiparidza vhangeri, vaprista vakuru navadzidzisi vomurayiro, pamwe chete navakuru, vakasvika kwaari.
2 They asked him, “Tell us: by whose authority are you doing what you do? Who gave you the right to do this?”
Vakati kwaari, “Tiudzei kuti munoita zvinhu izvi nesimba ripi? Ndiani akakupai simba iri?”
3 “Let me ask you a question too,” Jesus replied. “Tell me:
Akapindura akati, “Neniwo ndichakubvunzai mubvunzo. Ndiudzei,
4 the baptism of John—was it from heaven, or was it just human?”
‘Rubhabhatidzo rwaJohani rwakabva kudenga here kana kuti kuvanhu?’”
5 They talked about it among themselves: “If we say it was from heaven, he'll ask, ‘Then why didn't you believe him?’
Vakataurirana pakati pavo vakati, “Kana tikati, ‘Rwakabva kudenga,’ iye achati, ‘Seiko musina kumutenda?’
6 And if we say it was just human, everybody will stone us for they're sure John was a prophet.”
Asi kana tikati, ‘Rwakabva kuvanhu,’ vanhu vose vachatitaka namabwe, nokuti vanotenda kuti Johani akanga ari muprofita.”
7 So they answered, “We don't know where it came from.”
Saka ivo vakazoti, “Hatizivi kuti rwakabvepi.”
8 Jesus replied, “Then I won't tell you by whose authority I do what I do.”
Jesu akati, “Neniwo handichakuudzai simba randinoita naro zvinhu izvi.”
9 Then he began to tell the people a story: “Once there was a man who planted a vineyard, leased it to some farmers, and went to live in another country for a long while.
Akaenderera mberi akaudza vanhu mufananidzo uyu akati, Mumwe murume akadyara munda wake wemizambiringa, akaupa kuna vamwe varimi kwechinguva achibva aenda kure kune imwe nyika kwenguva refu.
10 At harvest time he sent a servant to the tenant farmers to collect his share of the crop, but the farmers beat the servant and sent him away with nothing.
Panguva yokukohwa, akatuma muranda kuvarimi kuti vamupe zvimwe zvezvibereko zvemizambiringa. Asi varimi vakamurova vakamuendesa asina chinhu.
11 So the owner sent another servant, but they beat him too and treated him shamefully, and sent him away with nothing.
Akatumazve mumwe muranda, asi naiyewo vakamurova uye vakamuitira zvinonyadzisa ndokumudzosazve asina chinhu.
12 So he sent a third servant, but they wounded him and threw him out.
Akatumazve mumwe wechitatu, uyu vakamukuvadza ndokumukanda kunze.
13 The owner of the vineyard asked himself, ‘What shall I do? I know, I'll send my son whom I love. Perhaps they will respect him.’
“Ipapo muridzi womunda wemizambiringa akati, ‘Ndichaita seiko? Ndichatuma mwanakomana wangu, iye wandinoda; zvimwe vachamuremekedza.’
14 But when they saw him coming, the farmers said to themselves, ‘This is the owner's heir. Let's kill him! That way we can take his inheritance.’
“Asi varimi vakati vachimuona, vakataurirana pachavo vakati, ‘Uyu ndiye mudyi wenhaka. Ngatimuurayei nhaka igova yedu.’
15 They threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. Now what will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
Saka vakamubudisa mumunda wemizambiringa ndokubva vamuuraya. “Zvino muridzi womunda womuzambiringa achaitei kwavari?
16 He will come and kill these farmers and let others have the vineyard.” When they heard the story, they said, “May this never happen!”
Achauya agouraya varimi avo agopa vamwe varimi munda womuzambiringa.” Vanhu vakati vanzwa izvozvo, vakati, “Dai zvakadai zvikasatomboitika!”
17 But Jesus looked at them and said, “Then why is it written in the Scriptures, ‘The stone the builders rejected has now become the chief cornerstone’?
Jesu akavatarisisa uye akavabvunza akati, “Zvino zvakanyorwa zvinoreveiko zvinoti: “‘Ibwe rakarambwa navavaki ndiro razova musoro wekona’?
18 Anyone who falls on that stone will be broken in pieces; anyone it falls upon will be crushed.”
Mumwe nomumwe anowira padombo iroro achavhunika-vhunika asi uyo warinowira achapwanyiwa.”
19 Immediately the religious teachers and the chief priests wanted to arrest him because they realized that the story Jesus told was aimed at them, but they were afraid of what the people would do.
Vadzidzisi vomurayiro navaprista vakuru vakatsvaka nzira yokumusunga pakarepo, nokuti vaiziva kuti akanga ataura mufananidzo uyu pamusoro pavo. Asi vakanga vachitya vanhu.
20 Watching for an opportunity they sent spies who pretended to be sincere. They tried to catch Jesus out in something he said so they could hand him over to the power and authority of the governor.
Vakaramba vachimucherechedza, vakatuma vasori, vakanga vachinyepedzera kuva vakatendeka. Vakanga vane tariro yokuti vamubate iye Jesu pachinhu chaanenge ataura kuitira kuti vagomuisa kusimba noutongi hwomubati.
21 They said, “Teacher, we know that you speak and teach what is good and right, and that you're not swayed by the opinions of others. You truly teach the way of God.
Saka vasori vakamubvunza vachiti, “Mudzidzisi, tinoziva kuti munotaura uye munodzidzisa zvakarurama, uye kuti hamusi mutsauri wavanhu asi munodzidzisa nzira yaMwari zviri maererano nezvokwadi.
22 So should we pay taxes to Caesar or not?”
Ko, zvakanaka here kuti tiripe mutero kuna Kesari kana kuti kwete?”
23 But Jesus saw through their trickery, and said to them,
Akaona kunyengera kwavo akati kwavari,
24 “Show me a coin—a denarius. Whose image and inscription is on it?” “Caesar's,” they answered.
“Ndiratidzei dhenari. Ko, mufananidzo norunyoro zviripo ndezvani?”
25 “Then give back to Caesar what belongs to Caesar, and give back to God what belongs to God,” he told them.
Vakapindura vakati, “NdezvaKesari.” Iye akati kwavari, “Ipai Kesari zvaKesari uye mugopa Mwari zvaMwari.”
26 They weren't able to trap him by what he told the people. They were stunned at his reply, and fell silent.
Vakanga vasingagoni kumuteya nezvaakanga ataura ipapo pane vanhu. Vakashamiswa nokupindura kwake, vakanyarara.
27 Then some of the Sadducees, who deny the resurrection, came to Jesus with this question:
Vamwe vaSadhusi, vanoti hakuna kumuka kwavakafa, vakauya nomubvunzo kuna Jesu.
28 “Teacher,” they began, “Moses gave us a law that if a married man dies leaving a wife without children, then his brother should marry the widow and have children for his dead brother.
Vakati, “Mudzidzisi, Mozisi akatinyorera kuti kana mukoma womunhu akafa akasiya mukadzi asina vana, murume anofanira kuwana chirikadzi iyo amutsire mukoma wake vana.
29 Once there were seven brothers. The first had a wife, and died without having children.
Zvino pakanga pane vanakomana vanomwe. Wokutanga akawana mukadzi, akafa asina mwana.
30 The second
Wechipiri akamuwana uye akafa asina mwana.
31 and then the third brother also married her. In the end all seven brothers married her, and then died without having children.
Uye wechitatu akamuwana, uye nenzira imwe cheteyo, vose vari vanomwe vakafa, vachisiya pasina vana.
32 Finally the wife died too.
Pakupedzisira, mukadzi akafawo.
33 Now whose wife will she be in the resurrection, since all seven brothers had married her?”
Zvino mukadzi uyu achava waaniko pakumuka kwavakafa sezvo akanga ari mukadzi kwavari vose vari vanomwe?”
Jesu akapindura akati, “Vanhu venyika ino vanowana nokuwanikwa. (aiōn g165)
35 “But those who are considered worthy to share in the age to come and the resurrection from the dead don't marry or are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
Asi vaya vanoonekwa kuti vakakodzera kurarama munyika iyo nomukumuka kwavakafa, havazowani kana kuwanikwa, (aiōn g165)
36 They can't die any longer; they're like the angels and are children of God since they're children of the resurrection.
uye havazofizve; nokuti vafanana navatumwa. Vana vaMwari, sezvo vari vana vokumuka kwavakafa.
37 But on the question of whether the dead are raised, even Moses proved this when he wrote about the burning bush, when he calls the Lord, ‘the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’
Asi panhoroondo yegwenzi, kunyange naMozisi akaratidza kuti vakafa vanomutswa, nokuti anoti, Ishe ndiye ‘Mwari waAbhurahama, naMwari waIsaka, uye naMwari waJakobho.’
38 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to him they all are alive.”
Haasi Mwari wavakafa, asi wavapenyu, nokuti kwaari vose vapenyu.”
39 Some of the religious teachers responded, “That was a good answer, Teacher.”
Vamwe vadzidzisi vomurayiro vakati, “Mataura zvakanaka, mudzidzisi!”
40 After this no one dared to ask him any more questions.
Uye hakuna akazoda kumubvunzazve mimwe mibvunzo.
41 Then Jesus asked them, “Why is it said that Christ is the son of David?
Ipapo Jesu akati kwavari, “Seiko vachiti Kristu Mwanakomana waDhavhidhi?
42 For David himself says in the book of Psalms: The Lord said to my Lord, ‘Sit at my right hand
Dhavhidhi pachake anotaura mubhuku raMapisarema achiti: “‘Ishe akati kuna She wangu: Gara kuruoko rwangu rworudyi
43 until I make all your enemies a footstool for your feet.’
kusvikira ndaita vavengi vako chitsiko chetsoka dzako.’
44 David calls him ‘Lord,’ so how can he be David's son?”
Dhavhidhi anomuti, ‘Ishe.’ Anogova mwanakomana wake seiko?”
45 While everyone was paying attention, he said to his disciples,
Vanhu vose vachakateerera, Jesu akati kuvadzidzi vake,
46 “Watch out for religious leaders who like to go around in long robes, and love to be greeted with respect in the markets, and to have the best seats in the synagogues and places of honor at banquets.
“Chenjererai vadzidzisi vomurayiro. Vanoda kufamba-famba vakapfeka nguo refu, uye vachifarira kukwaziswa pamisika, nokuva nezvigaro zvapamusoro-soro mumasinagoge uye nenzvimbo dzinokudzwa pamabiko.
47 They cheat widows out of what they own, and cover up the kind of people they really are with long-winded prayers. They will receive severe condemnation in the judgment.”
Vanoparadza dzimba dzechirikadzi uye vanoita minyengetero mirefu, kuti vaonekwe. Vanhu vakadai vacharangwa zvakaomarara kwazvo.”
