Matthew 17
1 THEN six days after, Jesus taketh Peter, and James, and John his brother, and bringeth them into an exceeding high mountain apart.
Pagapititi mashaka sita Yesu kamtoliti Peteru na Yakobu na Yohani mlongu gakuwi kagenda nawa gweka yawu kulugongu lutalipa.
2 And he was transformed before them; and his face shone as the sun, and his garments were white as the light.
Aku pawaweriti wakumlola Yesu kagalambuka sheni, sheni shakuwi shiweriti ndaa gambira mshenji na nguwu zyakuwi ziwera neru mbuu.
3 And behold, there appeared to them, Moses and Elias talking with him.
Shakapanu wafundwa watatu walii wawawoniti Musa na Eliya pawayowera na Yesu.
4 Then Peter addressing him, said to Jesus, Lord, It is well that we are here; if it please thee, we will make here three tents; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
Su Peteru kamgambira Yesu, “Mtuwa, iherepa nentu twenga twapanu, pagufira hanyawi visasa vitatu, shimu shaku na shamonga sha Musa na shamonga sha Eliya.”
5 And while he was yet speaking, behold, a luminous cloud overshadowed them; and lo! a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom is my delight; hear him!
Pakaweriti kankali kankutakula hangu, liwundu lifufu limgubikira na liziwu lipikanika kulawa muliwundi ali palilonga, “Ayu ndo mwana gwangu yanumfira nentu nherepeziwa nayomberi, mumpikaniri.”
6 And the disciples hearing it, fell on their face, and were exceedingly affrighted.
Wafundwa pawapikaniriti aga watiliti nentu, su wasuntama makukama.
7 And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, be not affrighted.
Yesu kawagendera kawashinkula pakalonga, “Namtira, mgoloki!”
8 Then lifting up their eyes, they saw no person, but Jesus only.
Pawaloliti wawona ndiri muntu gwingi kumbiti Yesu gweka yakuwi.
9 And when they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, Tell no man the vision, until the Son of man is risen from the dead.
Pawaweriti wankusuluka kulugongu Yesu kawaberiziya nawamgambira muntu vitwatira yawaviwoniti mpaka Mwana gwa Muntu pawamzyukisiya kulawa kwa wahowiti.
10 And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then do the scribes affirm, that Elias must come first?
Shakapanu wafundwa wakuwi wamkosiya, “Iwera hashi wafunda wa Malagaliru wankutakula eti mpaka Eliya kizi huti?”
11 Then Jesus answering said unto them, Elias indeed cometh first, and will reform all things.
Yesu kawankula, “Nakaka, Eliya hakizi kunyawa vitwatira yoseri.
12 But I say unto you, That Elias is already come, and they knew him not, but have done by him whatsoever they chose: even so also must the Son of man suffer by them.
Nukugambirani kuwera Eliya kiza kala na wantu wammana ndiri, kumbiti wamtendera vyawafiriti weni. Mwana gwa Muntu hawambeziyi ntambu ira ayi mumawoku gawu.”
13 Then understood the disciples that he spake to them of John the Baptist.
Peni panu wafundwa wavimana kuwera yomberi kaweriti kankuwagambira weni kuusu Yohani Mbatiza.
14 And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a man, kneeling down to him, and saying,
Pawawuyiti mulipinga lya wantu, muntu yumu kamgendera Yesu na kamsuntamalira,
15 Lord, have compassion on my son, for he is a lunatic, and suffers grievously; for oftentimes he falleth into the fire, and often into the water.
na kalonga, “Mtuwa, gumwoneri lusungu mwana gwana! Yomberi kana shisirika, kayi mwana gwangu katabika nentu mala zitangala kaguwira mumotu ama mumashi.
16 And I brought him to thy disciples, and they have not been able to cure him.
Numjega kwa wafundwa waku, kumbiti waweza ndiri kumponiziya.”
17 Then Jesus answering, said, O generation, faithless, and perverse! how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you? bring him hither to me.
Yesu kawankula, “Shiyiwuku ashi shahera moyu na shipotoka! Hanulikali na mwenga mpaka ndii? Munjegeri panu mwana ayu!”
18 And Jesus rebuked him, and the devil came out of him; and the child was cured from that hour.
Yesu kamkalipira shamshera ulii, na shamshera kamlawa na mwana ulii kawera mkomu palaa palii.
19 Then the disciples of Jesus coming privately, said, Why could not we cast it out?
Shakapanu wafundwa wakuwi wamgendera Yesu pahala pagweka wamkosiya, “Iwera hashi twenga tusinda kumwusiya shamshera ulii.”
20 Then said Jesus unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard, ye shall say to this mountain, Remove from hence, thither, and it will remove; and nothing will be impossible for you.
Yesu kawankula, “Toziya mwahera njimiru, nuwagambira nakaka pamuwera na njimiru gambira mbeyu ndidini nentu, hamuwezi kulugambira lugongu alu, ‘Guwuki panu gugendi palii!’ Na lugongu alu halugendi. Haguwezi kutenda shitwatila shoseri!”
21 But this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.
Kumbiti kwa kuluwa na kufunga mweza kuwalaviya washamshera awa, kwahera shintu shingi shiweza.
22 And as they were returning into Galilee, Jesus said unto them, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of men:
Wafundwa pawaliwoniti pamuhera Galilaya, Yesu kawagambira, “Mwana gwa Muntu hawamupanani kwa wantu
23 and they shall kill him, and the third day he shall rise again. And they were grieved exceedingly.
na hawamlagi, kumbiti lishaka lya tatu kwanjira kuhowa kwakuwi hakazyuki.” Wafundwa waweriti na ushiwa nentu.
24 And when they came to Capernaum, they who receive the tax of two drachmas came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay tribute?
Yesu pamuhera na wafundwa wakuwi pawasokiti Kafarinaumu, watola mpiya za zaka za Numba nkulu ya Mlungu wamgenderiti Peteru na wamkosiya, “Hashi mfunda gwenu kalipa mpiya za zaka za Numba nkulu ya Mlungu?”
25 He saith, Yes. And when he came into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings of the earth receive customs and tax? from their own children, or from aliens?
Peteru kawankula, “Yina!” Su Peteru pakayingiriti mnumba, pamberi kanetakuli shisoweru shoseri, Yesu kamkosiya, “Simoni gwengapa guwona ashi, wafalumi wa pasipanu watola ushuru ama kodi kwa ashina gaa? Kulawa kwa wenikaya ama kwa wahenga?”
26 Peter saith to him, From aliens. Jesus saith unto him, In that case then the children are free.
Peteru kawankula, “Kulawa kwa wahenga.” Yesu kamgambira, “Iherepa!, Su wenikaya wawusika ndiri kulipa.
27 But that we give them no offence, go unto the sea, and cast in a hook, and take the first fish which cometh up; and on opening his mouth, thou wilt find a stater, that take and give them for me and thee.
Kumbiti wantu awa nawatuwona twenga twawadoda. Su mgendi kulitanda mwakalopoli somba. Somba gwa kwanja kumlopola, gugubuturi mlomu gwakuwi na haguwoni mpiya zazitosha kulipira zaka yangu na mwenga. Guzitoli na gulipi kodi zyetu.”
