Matthew 17
1 AND after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,
Mazuba a mana iyanza ni limwina chinga amana Jesu chahinda Pitorosi ni Jakobo, ni Joani mwa chakwe, mi caba ntwala he lundu li nyemukite abo bene.
2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.
Ca sanduka ha hasu bwabo. Vuluvi bwakwe cibwa sanduka ku benya sina izuba, zizwato zakwe cizasanduka sina iboni.
3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.
Mubone cikwa boneka Mushe ni Eliia niba wambola naye.
4 Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
Pitorosi ce taba, kwa Jesu. “Simwine, kambe kuwolekaa. Nitwe kala ha hanu halotu kuhitiliza. Haiba usaka, linu ime nina zaka zitomba zo tatwe chimwi cibe cako, chimwi ca Mushe, ni chimwi ca Eliia.”
5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.
Ha ba kwete kusi wamba, hamulole, muzunde we kope licena ciweza kuba wumba cikwa zwa izwi libali kuzwila mwikope ci, lyati. “Uzu nji Mwanangu inisuni kuhitiliza, ini kantwa, Mu muzuwe.”
6 And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid.
Balutwana bazuwa, ciba suha nikuwa ca bulubi.
7 And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid.
Linu Jesu ceza ni kuba kwata cati, “Mubuke musiye kutiya.”
8 And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only.
Linu ci ba buka kono kena baba boni mutu konji Jesu yeke.
9 And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead.
Haba suka hasi kuzwa he lundu, Jesu caba laya “kuti kanji ba wambili mutu mane nanga yeke ziba bona konji Mwana Muntu caka buka kuva fwile.”
10 And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come?
Balutwana ciba buza “cizi bañoli havati kuti Eliia eze lwe tazi?”
11 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.
Jesu cetava niku wamba kuti, kuwamba vuniti, “Elia mweze za boze zintu muzi be kalile.
12 But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them.
Kono nimi ta kuti, Elia ca vezite kale, kono kana vava mwizivi civa panga zose zivava kusaka. Mwi zila iswana, Mwana Muntu mwa nyandiswe mu mayaza avo”.
13 Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist.
Valutwana vakwe civa lemuha kuti uwamba Joani yo koloveza.
14 And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a certain man, kneeling down to him, and saying,
Cinga vasika hakunganine batu, muntu ceza kwali, ca fukama havusu vwakwe, naco kuti,
15 Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed: for ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water.
“Simwine, fwile mwanangu inse, ulwala vutuku vwa kuzuminina unyanda maswe. Hamwi uwilinga mu mulilo kapa mu mezi.
16 And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him.
Niva muletete kuva lutwana vako, niva kangwa ku muhoza.”
17 Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me.
Jesu cetava cati, “Murahi usa zumini utenda zi fosahele, Kani kale nanwe inako ikumahi? Mulete kunu kwangu.”
18 And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child was cured from that very hour.
Jesu cakalimela luhuho lubilala. Muhwile cahola mwi nako yeyo.
19 Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out?
Balutwana ba Jesu chiveza kaku liwungula ku vamwi niku vuza, “cizi hatwa kangwa ku zwisa luhuho luvilala?”
20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
Jesu ca wamba kuvali, “kakuli mwina itumelo inini. Ni mi wambila vuniti vwizwile, hamuva nitumelo sina itanga yamasitete, muwola kuwambila ilundu, “zwaho uyende kuna,” muliyende ka kwina cense cili kanise.
21 Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.
Kono ulu luhuho lubilala kalu zwi feela haisi ca kulapela wa kuli nyima zilyo.”
22 And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said unto them, The Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of men:
Niva sina mwa Galilea, Jesu ca wambila va lutwana vakwe, “Mwana muntu mwa tambikwe muma yaza abatu.
23 And they shall kill him, and the third day he shall be raised again. And they were exceeding sorry.
Mi muva mwi haye, mi mwi zuba lyabutatu mwa vuswe kuba fwile.” Mi ikulo zaba lutwana vakwe ciza coka luli.
24 And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received tribute money came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay tribute?
Chinga vasikna mwa Kapenauma, mukwame yo bona zamutelo nicha buza Pitorosi mane muruti wenu mane ulihanga mutelo?
25 He saith, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? of their own children, or of strangers?
Chati, “Eni” ulihanga. Kono Pitorosi cha yenda muzubo, Jesu cha wamba lwetanzi, “iwe uhupula vule Simoni? Masimwine be kanda va tambula mitelo izwa kubani? Kubazwa kule kamba kubatu bave kala navo?”
26 Peter saith unto him, Of strangers. Jesus saith unto him, Then are the children free.
Pitorosi chinge taba kuti, kubatu “bazwakule,” Jesu cha mucho kuti “batu be chinsi kaba zumininwe kuliha mutelo.
27 Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them, go thou to the sea, and cast an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that take, and give unto them for me and thee.
Kanji tuleteli yo lola zamitelo chivi, Yende kwi wate, kasohele kashuto kako mu mezi, Hinde iswi ye tazi wi yalule mulomo wayo mowane isheleni, uka itambike yobona zamitelo muchisa changu ni chako.”
