Matthew 7
1 Don't judge others, so that you won't be judged.
“Kamutomboloshanga banenu, kwambeti nenjamwe Lesa akabule kumombolosha.
2 For whatever standard you use to judge others will be used to judge you, and whatever measurement you use to measure others will be used to measure you.
Momukute komboloshela banenu, mopelomo nenjamwe Lesa mweti akamomboloshele. Kayi mwelo ngomukute kusebenshesha pakombolosha, mwelo wopelowo nukasebensheshewe pali njamwe.
3 Why do you see the speck that's in your brother's eye? Don't you notice the plank that's in your own eye?
Mukute kuboneconi kantu kang'ana kali mulinso mwamunobe, kotayeye omwine cishiki cili mulinso lyakobe?
4 How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take out that speck from your eye’ when you have a plank in your own eye?
Ngaumwambileconi munobeti, ‘Tubone ndikufunye kantu mulinso,’ Kakuli obe mulinso mwakobe muli cishiki?
5 You're being hypocritical! First get rid of the plank that's in your own eye. Then you'll be able to see clearly to take out the speck from your brother's eye.
Obe wandemi shibili! nanshi tatika kufunya cishiki ico cili mu linso lyakobe, empowelela kubona cena ne kukafunyamo kantu kali mulinso lyamunobe.
6 Don't give dogs what's holy. Don't throw your pearls to pigs. That way the pigs won't trample them underfoot, and the dogs won't turn and attack you.
“Kamutapa bakabwa bintu bya Lesa, pakwinga ingabamubwelela ne kwisa kumuluma. Nambi kuwalila nkumba mikanda yamalungu, pakwinga nishikalwataulowa.”
7 Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened for you.
Senga nakamupe, langaula nimukacane, kukonkosha nibakamucalwile cisasa.
8 Everyone who asks, receives; everyone who seeks, finds; and everyone who knocks has the door opened for them.
Ee, muntu lasengenga winga kupewa, muntu lalangaulunga winga kucicana, kayi muntu lakonkoshonga bakute kumucalwila cisasa.
9 Would any of you give your son a stone if he asked for bread?
Niyani pakati penu amwe bamashali welela kupa libwe mwanendi lasenge shinkwa?
10 Or if he asked for fish, would you give him a snake?
Nambi usenga lunswi, ngamumupa njoka sena?
11 So if even you who are evil know to give good things to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give good things to those who ask him.
Lino amwe ne kwipa kwenuku, mucinshi kupa banabenu bintu byaina, kulyeconi kuli Bameshenu bakwilu, sena ngabalilwa kupa bintu byaina kuli balamusengenga?
12 Treat others the way you want them to treat you. This sums up the law and the prophets.
Neco, mubintu bili byonse mbyomulayandangeti bantu bamwinshile, mwelela nanshi amwe kubenshila byopelebyo. Pakwinga uku ekukwanilisha milawo ya Mose, ne biyisho bya bashinshimi.
13 Enter by the narrow entrance. For the entrance is wide, and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and many travel that way.
Kamwingililani mwakulipakatisha pacishinga cing'ana. Pakwinga cishinga cilatwalanga ku lufu ni cinene, ne nshila yatandabala ne bantu balapitingamonga nibagi.
14 But the entrance is narrow, and the way is difficult that leads to life, and only a few find it.
Nomba cishinga cakuya kwingila kubuyumi nica kulipakatisha, ne nshila yakendi yayuma kwendamo, nabo balendengamonga nibang'ana.
15 Watch out for false prophets who come wearing sheep's clothing, but who on the inside are vicious wolves.
Kamucenjelani ne bashinshimi bandemi shibili. Bakute besanga kulinjamwe kababoneka babomba myoyo eti mbelele. Nomba mukati balyeti baumpe bansala.
16 You can recognize them by their fruits. Do people harvest grapes from thorn bushes, or figs from thistles?
Nimukabeshibile ku bisepo byabo. Sena bitondo bya myunga ngabisema minyansa? Sena ingamucana nkuyu ku kankolong'onso?
17 So every good tree produces good fruit, while a bad tree produces bad fruit.
Citondo caina cikute kusema bisepo byaina, nomba citondo caipa cikute kusema bisepo byaipa.
18 A good tree can't produce bad fruit, and a bad tree can't produce good fruit.
Citondo caina nkacelela kusema bisepo byaipa sobwe, nambi citondo caipa kusema bisepo byaina nkacinshiki pimbi.
19 Every tree that doesn't produce good fruit is chopped down and thrown into the fire.
Citondo ciliconse citaseme bisepo byaina bakute kucitimbula ne kuciwala pa mulilo.
20 So you'll recognize them by their fruits.
Neco, bantu nimukabeshibile kuncito shabo.
21 Not everyone who calls me ‘Lord, Lord’ will enter the kingdom of heaven—only those who do the will of my Father in heaven.
“Nteye muntu lambangoweti, ‘Nkambo, Nkambo,’ Eti akengile mu Bwami bwa kwilu sobwe, nsombi uyo lenshinga ncobalayandanga Bata ba kwilu.
22 Many will say to me at the Day of Judgment, ‘Lord, Lord, didn't we prophesy in your name and drive out demons in your name, and perform many miracles in your name?’
Pabusuba bwakomboloshewa bantu bangi nibakambengeti, ‘Nkambo, Nkambo!’ Sena afwe ntetwali kukambauka mu lina lyenu? Twalikucikonsha kupulisha mishimu yaipa pakusebenshesha lina lyenu, mu lina lyenu kayi twalikwinsa bishikukankamanisha.
23 Then I will tell them, ‘I never knew you. Leave me, you people who practice wickedness!’
Nomba ame ninkabambile pamensotuba kwambeti, ‘nkandimwishipo sobwe, fumani apa!’ Mobeshi kwinsa byaipa.”
24 Everyone that hears the words I say, and follows them, is like a wise man who built his house on solid rock.
“Uliyense lanyumfunga ne kwakonkela maswi akame, welana ndendende ne muntu wamano uyo walebaka ng'anda yakendi palibwe lyacandanshi.
25 The rain poured down, and the floods rose, and the winds blew hard against the house, but it didn't fall down, because its foundations were on solid rock.
Kwalaloka mfula, milonga yalesula, lukupwe lwangofu lwalauma kung'anda, nomba ng'anda iliya kuwa sobwe, pakwinga walaibaka palibwe lyacandanshi.”
26 Everyone that hears the words I say, and doesn't follow them, is like a foolish man who built his house on the sand.
“Nomba uliyense lanyumfunga maswi akame, nsombi kabula kwakonkela, welana ndendende, ne muntu wapunama uyo walebaka ng'anda yakendi pa museya.
27 The rain poured down, and the floods rose, and the winds blew hard against the house, and it fell down—it totally collapsed.”
Kwalaloka mfula, milonga yalesula, lukupwe lwangofu lwalauma kung'anda, ng'anda yalawa, nomba kuwa kwa ng'andeyo kwalikuba kunene kuyosha.”
28 When Jesus finished explaining these things, the crowds were amazed at his teaching,
Yesu mpwalapwisha kwamba makani awa, bantu bangi balakankamana ne njiyishilo yakendi.
29 for he taught like someone with authority, and not like their religious teachers.
Pakwinga nkalikubeti beshikwiyisha milawo ya Mose, nsombi nendi walikwiyisha ne ngofu.
