Matthew 11
1 When Jesus had finished giving instructions to his twelve disciples, he left to go and teach and speak publicly in the nearby towns.
Ejile Yesu okubhabwila abheigisibhwa bhae akumi na bhabhili emukile nagenda omwiigisha no kulasha mumisi jebhwe,
2 While John was in prison he heard what the Messiah was doing, so he sent his disciples
na Yowana ali mwibhoelo ejile ongwa ebhikolwa bhya Kristo, natuma omusango okulabhila abheigisibhwa bhae,
3 to ask on his behalf, “Are you the one we were expecting to come, or should we continue to look for someone else?”
na nibhamubhusha ati,”Awe nawe unu kaja, angu aliyo oundi chimulinde?”
4 Jesus answered them, “Go back and tell John what you hear and what you see.
Yesu nasubhya naikati, kubhene “Mugende mujomubhwila Yowana ganu omulola na ganu omungwa.
5 The blind can see, the crippled can walk, the lepers are healed, the deaf can hear, the dead are resurrected, and the poor hear the good news.
Abhanu bhanu bhatakulola abhabhona okulola, abhalema abhalibhata, abhagenge abhaosibhwa, abhasibhe bha matwi abhongwa lindi, abhafuye abhasululwa bhali bhaanga, na bhanu abhakene abhalasibhwa emisango Jo bhwana.
6 Blessed are those who don't reject me!”
Ana libhando unu takwitimata ingulu yani.
7 As they left, Jesus began to talk to the crowds about John. “What were you expecting to see when you went out into the desert? A reed tossed about by the wind?
Akatungu kanu abhanu bhanu nibhemuka, Yesu namba okwaika na liijo ingulu ya Yowana,”Niki chinu mwajiye okulola mwibhala lisaunga ndisingisibhwa no muyaga?
8 So what did you go to see? A man dressed in fancy clothes? People dressed like that live in kings' palaces.
Nawe niki chinu mwajiye okulola omunu afwae ebhifwalo bhyololo? Nichimali, bhanu abhafwala ebhifwalo bhyololo bhekae munyumba ja bhakama.
9 So what did you go to see then? A prophet? Yes, and I tell you he is much more than a prophet!
Tali mwajiye okulola ki-Omulagi? Nichimali, enibhabhwila ati, nokukila Omulagi.
10 He's the one this Scripture was written about: ‘I'm sending my messenger on ahead of you. He will prepare your way for you.’
Unu niwe andikiwe,'Lola, namulagilila omukosi wani imbele yo bhusu bhwao, unu kachuma injila yao imbele yao.
11 I tell you the truth, that among humanity there's no one greater than John the Baptist, but even the least important in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he is.
Anye enibhabhwila echimali, mubhamwi bhanu bhebhuywe abhagasi atalio unu Ali mukulu okukila Yawana Omubhatija. Nawe unu alimutilu mubhukama bhwa mulwile n mukulu okukila omwene.
12 From the time of John the Baptist up till now the kingdom of heaven continues to be under attack and violent people are trying to seize it by force.
Okusoka munsiku ja Yowana Omubhatija okukinga woli, obhukama bhwa Mulwile ni bhwamanaga, na bhanu bha managa, abhabhugega kwa managa.
13 For all the prophets and the law spoke for God until John came.
Kulwokubha abhalagi ne bhilagilo, bhaliga nibhalaga okukinga ku Yowana.
14 If you're prepared to believe it, he is Elijah, the one who was expected to come.
Na labha mwimaliliye okwikilisha, unu niwe Eliya, unu alija.
15 Anybody with ears should be listening!
Unu ali nokutwi kwokugwa nongwe.
16 What shall I compare this generation to? It's like children sitting in the market places shouting to each other,
Nilususanyishe naki olwibhulo lunu? Nichijejekanyo cha bhana bhanu abhashana kulubhala lwa lisoko, bhanu bhenyanjile nokubhilikilana,
17 ‘We played the flute for you and you didn't dance; we sang sad songs and you didn't cry.’
nibhaikati,'Chabhabhumiye olukuli mutabhinile. Chalile, emwe mutalilile'
18 John didn't come feasting and drinking, so people say, ‘He's devil-possessed!’
Kulwokubha Yowana ejile atalyaga mukate nolo kunywa omuvinyo, nibhaikati, 'Ana lisabwa.'
19 On the other hand the Son of man came and did feast and drink, and people say, ‘Look, he's greedy and drinks too much; he's a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ But wisdom is shown to be right by what it does…”
Omwana wa Adamu ejile nalya nokunywa nibhaikati, 'Lola' nimunu muli na munywi, omusani wa bhatobhesha bho bhushulu na abhebhibhi!' Nawe obhwengeso obhusululwa kwe bhikolwa bhyae.”
20 Then he began to reprimand the towns where he'd done most of his miracles because they had not repented.
Yesu namba okugonya emisi munu ebhikolwa bhyo kulugusha bhyakolwaga, kulwokubha bhaliga bhachali kuta,
21 “Shame on you, Korazin! Shame on you, Bethsaida! If the miracles had been performed in Tyre and Sidon which happened among you, they would have repented in sackcloth and ashes long ago.
Jilikubhona awe, Kolazini, Jilikubhona awe Betisaida! Lwakutyo ebhikolwa bhikulu gakakolekene Tilo na Sidoni ganu gakolekana anu, bhakabhee bhatee kala kwo kufwala amagunila no kwisinga lifu.
22 But I tell you that on the Day of Judgment it will be better for Tyre and Sidon than it will for you!
Nawe ilibha okwikomesha kwa Tilo na Sidoni olusiku lwa indamu yao.
23 And what about you, Capernaum? Will you be exalted to heaven? No, you'll go down to Hades! If the miracles had been performed in Sodom which happened among you, Sodom would still be here today. (Hadēs g86)
Awe, Kapelanaumu, owitogela ati bhalikutula ingulu okukinga mulwile? Payi ulitelemushwa okukinga nyombe. Lwakutyo ku Sodoma bhyakakolekene ebhikolwa bhikulu, kutyo gakolekana kwawe, yakabheeo okukinga lelo. (Hadēs g86)
24 But I tell you that on the Day of Judgment it will be better for Sodom than it will for you!”
Oli enaika nawe ati jakabhee nyangu ku chalo cha Sodoma okwimelegulu olusiku lwa indamu okukila awe.
25 Then Jesus prayed, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, for you've hidden these things from the clever and sophisticated. Instead you've revealed them to ordinary people.
Mumwanya ogwo Yesu naikati, “Enikukuya awe, Rata, Ratabhugenyi wo Olwile ne Chalo, kulwokubha wabhaselekele Emisango jinu abhobhwenge na bhengeso, nugasulula kubhanu bhatabhaga na bhwenge, lwa bhana abhalela.
26 Yes, Father, you were pleased to do this!
Rata lwakutyo jakukondee mumeso gao.
27 Everything has been entrusted to me by my Father, and no one really understands the Son, except the Father, and no one really understands the Father, except the Son, and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.
Emisango jona nayanibhwe okusoka ku Rata. Atalio unu kamumenya Omwana tali Rata, na atalio unu kamumenya Rata tali Omwana, na wona wona unu Omwana ana elyenda lyo kumusululila.
28 Come to me, all of you who struggle and who are burdened down. I will give you rest.
Muje kwanye, bhanu bhona omunyansibhwa no kusitoelwa ne migugu misito, anye enibhafung'amya.
29 Accept my yoke, and learn from me. For I am kind and I have a humble heart, and in me you will find the rest you need.
Mugege ingulwema yani na mwiigile okusoka kwanye, kulwokubha anye nilimwololo na mufula wo mwoyo no mubhona okufung'ama mumyoyo jemwe.
30 For my yoke is gentle, and my burden is light.”
Kulwokubha ingulwema yani ni nyololo no mugugu gwani ni mwangu.
