Matthew 24
1 AND Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.
Yesu walapula mu Ng'anda ya Lesa, lino mpwalikuya beshikwiya bakendi balamulesha ncoyalebakwa mwabuya Ng'anda iyo.
2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
Nomba Yesu walabambileti, “Ee mulabono ibi byonse, nomba cakubinga ndamwambilingeti, paliya libwe lyeti likashale palibwe linendi, lyeti likabule kupwayaulwa.”
3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? (aiōn g165)
Lino Yesu mpwalekala panshi pa mulundu wa maolifi, beshikwiya bakendi balesa kulyendiye palubasu bonka ne kumwipusheti, “Kamutwambilako, inga ibi nibikenshike lilyoni? Kayi nicani ceshi cikenshikenga nceti tukaboneneko kwisa kwenu, kayi ne cakupwa kwacindici?” (aiōn g165)
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
Yesu walabakumbuleti, “Cenjelani, kamutakabepwa ne muntu uliyense sobwe.
5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
Bantu bangi nibakese mulina lyakame! Kabambeti, ‘Klistu usa njame,’ Nibakabepe bantu bangi.
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
Nimukanyumfwe nkondo, kayi ne mbili shiyosha nkondo. Nomba amwe kamutaka yakamwa, Ee, ibi byela kwinshika, nsombi uku nteko kwambeti mapwililisho nawo alashiki kendi sobwe.”
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
“Pakwinga mishobo ya bantu nikabukilane, nabo bwami nibikalwanenga ne bwami. Nikukabe nsala, ne bikunkumo bishikutenkanya inshi mu misena ingi,
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
Nomba ibi byonse nicitatikowa ca mapensho.”
9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake.
“Bantu nibakamusunge ne kumupensha kayi ne kumushina. Bantu bamishobo yonse nibakamupele pacebo ca Lina lyakame.
10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
Bantu bangi pacindico nibakaleke kushoma, nibakatatike kupelana ne kulishana pamukowa wabo bene.
11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
Nikukaboneke bashinshimi bandemishibili beti bakabepe bantu bangi.
12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
Pacebo cakufula kwabintu byaipa, lusuno lwabantu bangi nilukacepe.
13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
Nsombi uyo eshakalimbikile mpaka kumapwililisho, endiyeti akapuluke.
14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
Nomba Mulumbe Waina uwu wa Bwami bwa Lesa nukakambaukwe pacishi capanshi conse, kwambeti, ube bukamboni kubantu ba mishobo yonse, popelapo mapwililisho nakashike.”
15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand: )
“Mwakabona cintu cishikusesemya cishikononga, calambwa ne Danyele mushinshimi, balacimaniki pa musena waswepa.” Obe ulabelengenga unyumfwishishe cena.
16 Then let them which be in Judæa flee into the mountains:
Abo bali mu Yudeya bela kufwambila kumilundu.
17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:
Uyo uli pelu pa ng'anda yakendi kataseluka kuya kwingila mu ng'anda eti amantemo bibya byakendi.
18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.
Uyo uli kumabala, kataya kumunshi kuya kumanta cakufwala cakunsa.
19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
“Malele ku batukashi beti bakabenga ne mabunda, kayi ne batukashi beti bakayamwishenga bana mumasubayo.
20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:
Pailani kwambeti cindi cakufwamba kacitakaba cindi camupewo, nambi pa busuba bwa Sabata sobwe.
21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
Pakwinga mapensho ayosha eti akaboneke mu masubayo, nkanabonekapo kufuma mpocalalengelwa cishi capanshi mpaka lelo, kayi nteti akabonekepo sobwe.
22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.
Nomba masubayo nalabula kufumfwipishiwa, nshinga ne palakabulu muntu nabaumo shikupuluka. Nsombi Lesa nakafumfwipishiwe masubayo pacebo cabantu mbwalasala.”
23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
“Cindico na muntu akamwambileti, ‘Klistu ulikuno!’ Nambi ‘uli uko!’ Kamutakamushoma sobwe.
24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
Pakwinga nikukaboneke baklistu ne bashinshimi bangi bandemishibili, beti bakambengeti, Kamubonani ‘Njame Klistu,’ Nambi kwambeti ‘njame mushinshimi,’ Abo bantu nibakensenga bintu byangofu, bishikukankamanisha, kwambeti babepe uliyense na kacikonsheka nambi basalwa ba Lesa.”
25 Behold, I have told you before.
Kamunyumfwani, ame ndamwambilili limo.
26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
“Ecebo cakendi, bantu bakamwambilangeti, ‘Kamubonani Klistu ulikucinyika,’ Kamutakayako sobwe, nambi bakambeti, ‘uli mu ng'anda,’ Kamutakashoma sobwe.
27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Kwisa kwa Mwana Muntu nikukabeti kubyasha kwa lulabo ulo lukute kubyasha kufuma kucwe mpaka ku mbonshi.”
28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
Walambeti, “kulikonse kuli mutunta wanyama yafwa, makubi nkwakute kubungana.”
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
“Panyuma pakendi mapensho akapwa mu masubayo, lisuba nilikashipe mbi, nawo mwenshi nukacileke kubala, nyenyenshi nishikalake kufuma ku makumbi, kayi ngofu sha mu mulengalenga nishikatenkane.
30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
Popelapo citondesho cakwisa kwa Mwana Muntu, nicikaboneke kwilu. Bantu bapacishi capanshi pano, ni bakatatike kulila, nibakabone Mwana Muntu kesa mu makumbi akwilu ne ngofu ne bulemeneno buyosha.
31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
Tolompita yangofu nikalile, popelapo nendi nakatume bangelo bakendi ku mbasu shonse shapacishi capanshi, kuya kubunganya basalwa bakendi. Kufuma kumapwililisho acishi, kushika kumapwililisho acishi.”
32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:
“Kamulangani kucitondo ca mukuyu kwambeti mwiyeko ciyo. Mwabona misampi yakendi ne matewu atatika kusonsa, mukute kwinshibeti, mainsa alipepi.
33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
Ne njamwe mwakatatika kubona bintu ibi mbyondambanga, mukenshibeti Mwana Muntu ulipepi, cakubinga uli pa cishinga.
34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
Kamwinshibani kwambeti bintu ibi nibikenshike bantu bamusemano uno kabata bapwa bonse.
35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
Kwilu ne cishi capanshi nibikapwe, nomba maswi akame nteti akapwe.”
36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
“Nambi kubeconi, paliya ubwishi busuba ne cindi, nambi bangelo bakwilu nkabacishipo, ne njame Ndemwana nkandicishipo sowe, nsombi Bata bonka ebaci shi.
37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Kwisa kwa Mwana Muntu nikukabeti ncokwalikuba mucindi ca Nowa.
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
Mu masubayo, muyoba wa mfula ya cilobe kautana ushika, bantu balikulya ne kunwa, bali kweba ne kwebwa, mpaka busuba mbwalengila Nowa mubwato.
39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Paliya ncobalikwinshiba sobwe, mpaka muyoba wamfula yacilobe yalesa kubashina bonse. Encoti cikabe pakwisa kwa Mwana Muntu.
40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
Pacindi copeleco bantu babili nibakacanike mulibala, umo nakamantwe, naumbi nakashale.
41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
Batukashi babili nibakacanike kabapela bunga ne mwampelo, umo nakamantwe, naumbi nakashale.”
42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
“Ne njamwe kamubani mwalibambila cindi conse, pakwinga nkamubwinshipo busuba mboti akese Mwami wenu.
43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
Nomba kamwishibaneti, mwine ng'anda nakute kwinshiba kwambeti nicindi cini camashiku ncalesanga kabwalala, nshinga nakute kalebe, kwambeti kabwalala katesa aibe mung'anda.
44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.
Neco, kamubani balibambila, pakwinga Mwana Muntu nakese pacindi ncomwabula kwingashila.”
45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?
“Inga niyani, musebenshi washomwa, kayi ukute mano? Uyo ngwalapa ncito Mwami wakendi yakwendelesha cena, ne kubapa cakulya basebenshi banendi pacindi celela?
46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
Walelekwa musebeshuyo, na kamucane Mwami wakendi kasebensa cena.
47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.
Cakubinga ndamwambilishingeti, Mwami wakendi nakamupe ncito yakwendelesha byonse bintu mbyakute.”
48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;
“Nsombi na ni musebenshi waipa, nendi nakayeyeti, ‘Mwami wakame lacelwa cindi citali’
49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;
Neco nakatatike kubauma basebenshi banendi, kulya ne kunwa pamo ne bacakolwa.
50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,
Pabusuba ne cindi ncabula kwingashila, Mwami wakendi nakashike sokoloku!
51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Neco Mwami wakendi na kamutimbaule, ne kumuwala uko kuli bantu bandemi shibili. Kopeloko eti kubenga kulila ne kukokota meno.”
