Matthew 16
1 THE Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven.
Mme ka letsatsi lengwe Bafarasai le Basadukai ba tla go leka Jesu mabapi le polelo ya gagwe ya gore ke Mesia ka go mo kopa go ba supegetsa ditshupo dingwe tse di tona mo magodimong.
2 He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.
A fetola a re, “Lo siame mo go baleng ditshupo tsa seemo sa mawapi; lo a tle lo re bohibidu jwa loapi maitseboeng bo raya seemo se sentle sa mawapi; lo a tle lo re bohibidu jwa loapi maitseboeng ano bo raya seemo se sentle sa loapi ka moso; lo bo lo re loapi lo lo hibidu mo mosong lo raya seemo se se bosula sa loapi motshegare otlhe, mme ga lo kgone go bala ditshupo tse di itlhalosang ka botsone tsa metlha!
3 And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowring. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?
4 A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he left them, and departed.
Sechaba se se bosula se, se se sa dumeleng se batla tshupo nngwe e e sa tlwaelesegang mo magodimong, mme ga go na sesupo sepe se se tlaa dirwang fa e se mofuta o o neetsweng Jona.” Hong Jesu a tswela kwa ntle a ba tlogela.
5 And when his disciples were come to the other side, they had forgotten to take bread.
Erile ba sena go kgabaganya lecha, barutwa ba lemoga gore ba lebetse go tla le dijo.
6 Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
Mme Jesu a ba tlhagisa a re, “Itlhokomeleng! Itiseng mo sebidisong sa Bafarasai le Basadukai.”
7 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have taken no bread.
Ba gopola gore o na a bua jaana ka gore ba ne ba lebetse go tla le senkgwe.
8 Which when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread?
Jesu a ba a itse se ba se akanyang mme a ba raya a re, batho ba tumelo potlana! Ke eng fa lo tshwenyegile jaana ka go tlhoka senkgwe?
9 Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
A ga lo kitla lo tlhaloganya? A ga lo gakologelwe bontsi jwa batho bo le dikete tse ke di hephileng ka dinkgwe di le tlhano, le diroto tse di neng tsa tlogelwa di tletse masalela? A ga lo gakologelwe dikete tse nne tse ke di hephileng le gotlhe mo go neng ga sala?
10 Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
11 How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?
Lo ka akanya jang gore ke ne ke bua ka dijo? Mme gape ka re, “Itiseng mo sebidisong sa Bafarasai le Basadukai.”
12 Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
Hong kwa bofelong ba tlhaloganya gore ka ‘sebidiso’ o na a raya thuto e e sa siamang ya Bafarasai le Basadukai.
13 When Jesus came into the coasts of Cæsarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?
Erile a goroga kwa Kaesarea Filipi, a botsa barutwa ba gagwe a re, “Batho ba re ke mang?”
14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.
Ba fetola ba re, “Bangwe ba re Johane wa Mokolobetsi; bangwe ba re Elija, bangwe ba re Jeremia kgotsa mongwe wa baporofiti ba bangwe.”
15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
Hong a ba botsa a re, “Lona lo akanya gore ke mang?”
16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
Simone Petere a fetola a re, “Keresete Mesia Morwa Modimo o o tshedileng”.
17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
Jesu a mo raya a re, “Modimo o go segofaditse, Simone, morwa Jona. Gonne Rara yo o kwa legodimong ke ene yo o go senoletseng dilo tse ka boene, ga go a tswa mo go ope.
18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. (Hadēs g86)
O Petere, lefika, mme ke aga phuthego ya me mo lefikeng le, mme dinonofo tsotlhe tsa molete ga di kitla di e fenya. (Hadēs g86)
19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
Mme ke tlaa go neela dilotlolo tsa bogosi jwa legodimo, dikgoro dingwe le dingwe tse o di lotlelang mo lefatshing, di tla lotlelwa kwa legodimong; mme dikgoro dingwe le dingwe tse o di lotlololang mo lefatsheng, di tlaa lotlololwa kwa legodimong!”
20 Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.
Hong a laya barutwa gore ba se ka ba bolelela bape fa e le Mesia.
21 From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.
Go tswa foo Jesu a simolola go tlhalosetsa barutwa ba gagwe kaga go ya kwa Jerusalema, le se se tlaa mo diragalelang teng, gore o tlaa boga mo diatleng tsa baeteledipele ba Sejuta, le gore o tla bolawa le gore e tlaa re morago ga malatsi a le mararo a tsosiwe gape.
22 Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee.
Mme Petere a mo tseela fa thoko go mo kgalemela a mo raya a re, “A mogopolo oo o nyelele Morena. Mo ga go kitla go go diragalela!”
23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.
Jesu a retologela kwa go Petere a re, “Tloga fa go nna, Satane ke wena! O lemena le le diphatsa mo go nna. O akanya ka fa batho ba bonang ka teng, e seng ka fa Modimo o akanyang ka teng.”
24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
Hong Jesu a raya barutwa a re, “Fa motho le fa e le mang a rata go nna molatedi wa me, a a iitatole a tseye mokgoro wa gagwe a ntshale morago.
25 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.
Gonne le fa e le mang yo o ipolokelang botshelo jwa gagwe bo tlaa mo latlhegela; mme le fa e le mang yo o latlhegelwang ke botshelo jwa gagwe ka ntlha ya me o tlaa bo bona gape.
26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
Go na le poelo ya eng fa motho a rua lefatshe lotlhe, mme a latlhegelwa ke botshelo jo bo sa khutleng? Se se ka tshwantshiwang le letlotlo la botshelo jo bo sa khutleng ke eng?
27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.
Gonne Nna, Morwa Motho, ke tlaa tla le baengele ba me mo kgalalelong ya ga Rre go atlhola mongwe le mongwe ka fa ditirong tsa gagwe.
28 Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.
Mme bangwe ba lona ba ba emeng fano jaanong jaana ba tshelela go mpona ke tla mo Bogosing jwa me.”
