< Matthew 23 >

1 Then spake Iesus to the multitude, and to his disciples,
Pu leino u Yeisu akhavavula eikhipungha khya vanu na vakongi akhata,
2 Saying, The Scribes and the Pharises sit in Moses seate.
“Pu avamanyi va kalata nava Farisai puvatamile eikhinghoda khya Mose.
3 All therefore whatsoeuer they bid you obserue, that obserue and doe: but after their workes doe not: for they say, and doe not.
Pu nchoni inchuvikhuvavula muvombange nukhukonga, punchila inchuvivomba avene mulekhe ukhunchikonga pakhuva avene einchuvi nchova nchu savivomba.
4 For they binde heauie burdens, and grieuous to be borne, and lay them on mens shoulders, but they themselues will not moue them with one of their fingers.
Avene, puvinkunga eiminchingho eiminehitu khuvanu einghidenya, puvikhuvatweikha avanu mumave ngha, na hali avene savinghela na padebe ukhunghipeimba.
5 All their workes they doe for to be seene of men: for they make their phylacteries broad, and make long the frindges of their garments,
Imbombo nchovo nchoni vivuvomba ukhuta veivonie khuvanu, pu nnghama sandukha nghavo melefu, navuvudeikha vwa fihunilwa fyalo khumalunde vutale fincho.
6 And loue the chiefe place at feastes, and to haue the chiefe seates in the assemblies,
Pu avene valeineikhihelehele munyumba ncha khisayila vilonda ukhutama mbutamo uvwa mufinghoda ifya vuvaha,
7 And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi.
Pu vanave musokhoni puvilonda ukhuta avanu vavapembenchanghe pu vinongwa ukhuta, veilangiwanghwe “Vamanyisi”khuvanu.
8 But be not ye called, Rabbi: for one is your doctour, to wit, Christ, and all ye are brethren.
Pu leino umwe samnonghile ukhwilangwa“Vamanyisi,”Pakhuva u Manyisi veinyo alei umo, numwe muleivana munu.
9 And call no man your father vpon the earth: for there is but one, your father which is in heauen.
Pu mwekhe ukhumwimeikha umunu nukhuta Daada pakhilunga, apa ulwakhuva u Dadayeito alei umo, avakhukyanya.
10 Be not called doctours: for one is your doctour, euen Christ.
Hange mulekhe ukhwilangiwa 'Vamanyisi, 'Pakhuva muleinumanyisi umo vope, vei keileisite.
11 But he that is greatest among you, let him be your seruant.
Pu leino umbaha mundwamwe veiva mbombi veinyo uvakhuvavombela.
12 For whosoeuer will exalt himselfe, shall be brought lowe: and whosoeuer will humble himselfe, shalbe exalted.
Pu leino uveikheiyeimikha veiikhwisiwanghwa. Nuveiikheiyisya vei ikhweimekhiwanghwa.
13 Wo therefore be vnto you, Scribes and Pharises, hypocrites, because ye shut vp the kingdome of heauen before men: for ye your selues go not in, neither suffer ye them that would enter, to come in.
Pu lweinyo umwe mweiva Farisai, a mweivamanya kalata! Muleivangalufu mukhuvandeindeila avanu umwumi vwa vwa ludeva lwa khukyanya, pu na yumwe samukhwinghila hange avilonda ukhwinghila samukhuvalavuleila veingheilanghe.
14 Wo be vnto you, Scribes and Pharises, hypocrites: for ye deuoure widowes houses, euen vnder a colour of long prayers: wherefore ye shall receiue the greater damnation.
(Lweinyo mweivanyakalata na Farisai mwevanghalufu, pakhuva mwilya khuva fweile, nukhwisaya einyeisayo inali puleino puyamuheinghiwangwa uvuheinghi uvuvucha ukhuluteila”).
15 Wo be vnto you, Scribes and Pharises, hypocrites: for ye compasse sea and land to make one of your profession: and when he is made, ye make him two folde more the childe of hell, then you your selues. (Geenna g1067)
Lweinyo umwe mweivanya vakalala na mwei va Farisai, mweivanghalufu! Mlovukha inyanja mweiluta khumwambo nukhupeila umunu umo akave avupo khi nukhuva mwosivwa, puyakhiva eideikhe pu mukhupela ave vakhuheingeiwa mumwoto unghwa sikhu nchoni. (Geenna g1067)
16 Wo be vnto you blinde guides, which say, Whosoeuer sweareth by the Temple, it is nothing: but whosoeuer sweareth by the golde of the Temple, he offendeth.
Lweinyo mweivalonghonchi mweimu bofwile, umwe mweimwita, Umunu uveikheijyinghila mwatepeli sakhinangikhe khinu.
17 Ye fooles and blinde, whether is greater, the golde, or the Temple that sanctifieth the golde?
Pu leino umunu uveijyeinghila mulutalama lwa tembile, uywa einkungile nu khwijyeingha kwa mwene. Umwe mweimubofwile hange muleivakonyofu, kheileikhu eikhivaha ulutalama ewo eitembile eiyivalancha ulutalama?
18 And whosoeuer sweareth by the altar, it is nothing: but whosoeuer sweareth by the offering that is vpon it, offendeth.
Hange, umunu uveikhijyeinghila panekhelo sa khinangheikha khinu. Pu ula uveikhejyeinghila pafinu ufiveikhivwe pa neikhelolei sadakha uywa veinkungile mwene.
19 Ye fooles and blinde, whether is greater, the offering, or the altar which sanctifieth the offering?
Umwe mwei bofwile, khileikhu khivaha eisadakha eiyapanekhelo, ewo einekhelo yeila eiyivalancha eisadakha?
20 Whosoeuer therefore sweareth by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon.
Pu leino, ula uveikhijyeinghila panekhelo, eikhijyeinghila pa eiyo hange na khufila ifilipakyanya pa nekhelo.
21 And whosoeuer sweareth by the Temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein.
Pu na yu ula uveijyeinghila mutembile, eijyeinghila mweiyo na khwa ula uveitama munghati muyene.
22 And he that sweareth by heauen, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon.
Ula uveijyeinghila khukyanya, ejyeingeila mukhinghoda eikhinyalwangula eikhya Nguluve na khyula uveiitama pa kyanya pakhiene.
23 Wo be to you, Scribes and Pharises, hypocrites: for ye tithe mynt, and annyse, and cummyn, and leaue the weightier matters of the law, as iudgement, and mercy and fidelitie. These ought ye to haue done, and not to haue left the other.
Lweinyo, mweiva manyi vakalata na mweiva Farisai, mweivangalufu! Pakhuva muhomba ifya ndevulu, nifyambilipili ni fya nbwingha napa nungu puleino munchilekhile eindangeilo eimbaha eincha ungendo ulunonu - neikhisa, nulweideikho, angho ngumunonghile ukhunghavomba pu nanghala anganghe mlukhe ukhunghalekha.
24 Ye blinde guides, which straine out a gnat, and swallowe a camell.
Mweivalongonchi mweimubofwile, umwe muhuncha eimbwele pu mwimila eingameila!
25 Wo be to you, Scribes and Pharises, hypocrites: for ye make cleane the vtter side of the cup, and of the platter: but within they are ful of briberie and excesse.
Lweinyo, mweivanyi vakalata na mwei va Farisai, mweivanghalufu! Ulwakhuva mwisukha nukhuvalancha khunji, eikhinywelo vu munghati fimonghalile, pufidenghile uvusyovi uvwakhupokha ifyuma fya vanghe.
26 Thou blinde Pharise, cleanse first the inside of the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be cleane also.
Umwe mweiva Farisai mweimubofwile, muvalanchanghe tasi munghati mukhinywelo na mundelema, pu nakhukhunji khwope khuvenchanghe khuvalile.
27 Wo be to you, Scribes and Pharises, hypocrites: for ye are like vnto whited tombes, which appeare beautifull outward, but are within full of dead mens bones, and all filthines.
Lweinyo umwe, mweivamanyi vakalata na mweiva Farisai, mweivanghalafu! ulwakhuva muhwanine nuvunghuli uvuvaniasinche vononu khunji puvuvonekha vunonu munghati nghadeinghile manchenghe nghene nu vuvili.
28 So are ye also: for outwarde ye appeare righteous vnto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisie and iniquitie.
Pu vuvuvwa, na yumwe khunji muvonekha muleivangolofu pamiho ngha vanu, pu leino munghati mudeinghile uvunghalufu nuvutula nongwa.
29 Wo be vnto you, Scribes and Pharises, hypocrites: for ye build the tombes of the Prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,
Lweinyo umwe, mweivanya kalata na mweiva Farisai, mweivangalufu! Pakhuva munjengela uvunghuli vwa vanyamalangho nukhunoncha uvunghuli vwa vangholofu.
30 And say, If we had bene in the dayes of our fathers, we would not haue bene partners with them in the blood of the Prophets.
Pu mwita, tunghale tuvenhange khyutule ifinghono fya vankhukhu yeito satwale tuve paninie pakhududa unkisa ngwavanyamalangho.
31 So then ye be witnesses vnto your selues, that ye are the children of them that murthered the Prophets.
Pumu leino mukhinchova yumwe ukhuta muleivana vavanu vavo vabudangha khuvanyamalangho.
32 Fulfill ye also ye measure of your fathers.
Pu leino umwe mudeinche eikhingelelo khya va vise veinyo.
33 O serpents, the generation of vipers, howe should ye escape the damnation of hell! (Geenna g1067)
Umwe mwe nyandalwe mweikhivumbukhu khya nyato umwe pumwipona ndakheikhi khumwoto nghwa sukhunchoni? (Geenna g1067)
34 Wherefore beholde, I send vnto you Prophets, and wise men, and Scribes, and of them ye shall kill and crucifie: and of them shall ye scourge in your Synagogues, and persecute from citie to citie,
Puleino, mulole, nikhuvasuha khulyumwe avanyamalangho avalei nuluhala navasimbi. Pu avange muovo umwe pumukhava budangha nukhuvatovelela pa khidameileihanie. Puavange mulavatovangha mutumbile ncheinyo nukhuvusweima punchenghe nuvunchenghe.
35 That vpon you may come all the righteous blood that was shed vpon the earth, from the blood of Abel the righteous, vnto the blood of Zacharias the sonne of Barachias, whome ye slewe betweene the Temple and the altar.
Puleino palyumwe ngulavahumeila unkisa nghwoni ungwavangholofu unghwa Hebeli nughwa sakhaliya unya velekiya uvaimwabudeile panghati pavungholofu napanekhelo.
36 Verely I say vnto you, all these things shall come vpon this generation.
Pu leino, nchayeilweli, einchi nchoni nchiva neikhivumbukhu eikhi.
37 Hierusalem, Hierusalem, which killest the Prophets, and stonest them which are sent to thee, how often would I haue gathered thy children together, as the henne gathereth her chickins vnder her wings, and ye would not!
Yerusalemu, Yerusalemu, uve weivwibuda avanyamalangho nukhuvatova namangangavala avansuhiwe khulyuve, khaleingi neinonghilwe ukhuvalundamania pupaninia avana vakho nduvu eihukhu yeilundania paupa ninie ifinkukhu fy ayene mumapapateilo ngha yene, pu umwe samuleikhunonghwa.
38 Beholde, your habitation shalbe left vnto you desolate,
Lola, einyumba yeinyo yeivile meenakhivula munu unynsinghile.
39 For I say vnto you, ye shall not see mee henceforth till that ye say, Blessed is he that commeth in the Name of the Lord.
Pu leino nikhuvavula, samulambone khange ukhuhumangha leino nukhufikha upuya khiva mwita mwaleimi asayiwe uveikhwinchila munchitawa lya Ntwa.'”
