< Luke 20 >

1 And it came to pass, on one of those days, as He is teaching the people in the temple, and proclaiming good news, the chief priests and the scribes, with the elders, came on [Him],
Bumwi buzuba, Jesu naakali kuyiisya bantu mutempeli akoompolola majwi mabotu, bapayizi bapati abalembi bamulawu bakasika kulinguwe abapati.
2 and spoke to Him, saying, “Tell us by what authority You do these things? Or who is he that gave to You this authority?”
Bakaambula kabati, kabati kulinguwe, “Twaambile kuti mumanguzu aani mochita eezi zintu? Nakuti ngwani ukupa nguzu zyakuchita eezi zintu?”
3 And He answering said to them, “I will question you—I also—one thing, and tell Me:
Wakabasandula wati, “Ambebo ndilamubuzya mubuzyo. Amundaambile aatala
4 the immersion of John, was it from Heaven, or from men?”
alubbabbatizyko lwa Joni. Lwakali kuzwa kujulu na kumuntu?”
5 And they reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we may say, From Heaven, He will say, Why, then, did you not believe him?
Bakaambula aakati kabo, kabati, “Twati, 'Kuzwa kujulu', ulati, 'Naambo nzi nimwakatamusyoma?'
6 And if we may say, From men, all the people will stone us, for they are having been persuaded John to be a prophet.”
Pesi twati, 'Luzwa kumuntu,' bantu balatutulula mabwe nkaambo bazi kuti Joni wakali musinsimi.”
7 And they answered that they did not know from where [it was],
Aboobo bakasandula kuti tabazi pe kuti lwakali kuzwa kulini.
8 and Jesus said to them, “Neither do I say to you by what authority I do these things.”
Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Ambezo nsikomwaambila pe kuti ninguzu zyani nzyechita aazyo zintu eezi.”
9 And He began to speak to the people this allegory: “A certain man planted a vineyard, and gave it out to farmers, and went abroad for a long time,
Wakaambila bantu chikozyanisyo eechi, “Umwi mwaalumi wakabyala chiilili chama sansa, mpawo wakawubikka mumaboko anbaabo balima masansa waya kulimbi nyika kwachiindi chilamfu.
10 and at the season he sent a servant to the farmers, that they may give to him from the fruit of the vineyard, but the farmers having beat him, sent [him] away empty.
Muchiindi chakasalwa, wakatuma mubelesi wakwe kulibasimuunda. Pesi basimuunda mbakamuuma akutanda katakwe chintu.
11 And he added to send another servant, and they also having beaten and dishonored that one, sent [him] away empty;
Wakatuma lubo umbi mubelesi mpawo bakamuuma, akumunyansya akmutanda lubo katakwe chintu.
12 and he added to send a third, and this one also, having wounded, they cast out.
Wakatuma lubo uumbi watatu alimwi bakamuchisa, akumutandila aanze.
13 And the owner of the vineyard said, What will I do? I will send my son, the beloved, perhaps having seen this one, they will respect [him];
Aboobo mwami wachilili wakati, 'Ndilachita biyeni? Ndilatuma mwandu wangu ngweyandisya amwi balikuyomulemeka.'
14 and having seen him, the farmers reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir; come, we may kill him, that the inheritance may become ours;
Pesi nibakamubona, bakaambula aakato kabo, kabati, 'Ooyu ngosili lukono. Atumujaye kuchitila kuti lukono lube lwesu.'
15 and having cast him outside of the vineyard, they killed [him]; what, then, will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
Bakamusowela kunze kwalubaya, mpawo bamujaya. Niinzi lino nchabatachite mwani muunda?
16 He will come, and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.” And having heard, they said, “Let it not be!”
Ulasika azobajaye boonse balimi nbamasansa, mpawo ape muunda kuli bamwi.” Nibakamvwa eezyo bakati, “Inche atazizumini pe Leza kuti zibe oobo!”
17 And He, having looked on them, said, “What, then, is this that has been written: A stone that the builders rejected—this became head of a corner?
Pesi Jesu wakabalanga, wati, “Aambaanzi malembe aaya? 'Bbwe ndibakaka bayaki, lyakazoba ndilyo lyakazooba bbwe lya chooko'?
18 Everyone who has fallen on that stone will be broken, and on whom it may fall, it will crush him to pieces.”
Woonse uuwoda abbwe eelyo uyyotyoloolwa muzimpanzi. Pesi ooyo ngujliyoowida, liyoomu pwaya
19 And the chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on Him in that hour, and they feared the people, for they knew that He spoke this allegory against them.
Aboobo balembi bamulaw abapayizi bapatgi bakayanda kutgi bamujate muchiindi nchicheecho, nkaambo bakalizi kuti wakaambula chikozyanisyo eechi kaamba mbabo. Pesi bakayoowa bantu.
20 And having watched [Him], they sent forth ones lying in wait, feigning themselves to be righteous, that they might take hold of His word, to deliver Him up to the rule and to the authority of the governor,
Nibakamulangisisya obotu obotu, bakamutumina bantu bakali kulyeeneenia mbuli basalali, kuti bamuyandwiide mpatabisye kwaambuula, kuchitila kuti bamupede kabotu kulibasimilawu akumulawu wamweendelezi.
21 and they questioned Him, saying, “Teacher, we have known that You say and teach correctly, and do not receive a person, but in truth teach the way of God.
Bakabuzya kulinguwe bati, “Muyiisyi, tulizi kuti wambuula akuyiisya choonzyo, alimwi toktobelezyi mizeezo yabantu pe, pesi uyiisya choonzyo aatala anzila ya Lez.
22 Is it lawful to us to give tribute to Caesar or not?”
Chili mumulawu na kuti tubbadale mitelo kuli Siza nape?”
23 And He, having perceived their craftiness, said to them, “Why do you tempt Me?
Pesi Jesu wakalumvwisisisya lweeno lwabo, mpawo wakati kulimbabo,
24 Show Me a denarius; of whom does it have an image and inscription?” And they answering said, “Of Caesar”:
“Amunditomndeezye kobili. Mbusyu azina lyani lilembedwe mpawo?” Bakaamba kuti, 'Nzizya siza.”
25 and He said to them, “Give back, therefore, the things of Caesar to Caesar, and the things of God to God”;
Wakati kulimbabo, “Akboobo amupe kuli Siza zintu zya Siza, akuli Leza zointu zya Leza.”
26 and they were not able to take hold on His saying before the people, and having wondered at His answer, they were silent.
Bakakachilwa nbulewusi muli nzyakaamba kunembo lyabantu. Bakayimikila akugamba aatala anandulo yakwe alimwi taakwe chimbi nchibakaamba.
27 And certain of the Sadducees, who are denying that there is a resurrection, having come near, questioned Him,
Lino ma Sadiusi nibakasika kulinguwe, aabo baamba kuti takukwe bubuke kubafu,
28 saying, “Teacher, Moses wrote to us if anyone’s brother may die, having a wife, and he may die childless—that his brother may take the wife, and may raise up seed to his brother.
bakamubuzya bati, “Muyisyi, Molzesi wakatulembela kuti na mukulana wamwaalumi wafwa, kali walikwete, pesi katakwe mwana, ooyo mwanike weelede kukwata bana mukulana azyalile mukulana mwana.
29 There were, then, seven brothers, and the first having taken a wife, died childless,
Kwakali bananyina bali kmusanu ababili, alimwi wakusanguna wakakwata, mpawo wakafwa katakwe mwana pe,
30 and the second took the wife, and he died childless,
awabili lubo.
31 and the third took her, and in like manner also the seven—they left no children, and they died;
Watatu wakanjila munda, aboobo boonse musanu ababili bakanjla mung'anda pesi boonse bakafwa taakwe wakasiya mwana pe.
32 and last of all the woman also died:
Musule wakazoofwa alakwe mwanakazi.
33 in the resurrection, then, of which of them does she become wife? For the seven had her as wife.”
Lino kububuke, uyooba mwanakazi wanu? Nkaambo boonse kabali musanu ababili bakali mukwete.”
34 And Jesus answering said to them, “The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage, (aiōn g165)
Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Bana balombe banyika iino balakwata alimwi balapegwa mulukwatano. (aiōn g165)
35 but those accounted worthy to obtain that age, and the resurrection that is out of the dead, neither marry, nor are they given in marriage; (aiōn g165)
Pesi aabo bataka[jane bulemu bwakutambula kubuka kubafu taakwe nibatakakwate na kupegwa mulukwatano. (aiōn g165)
36 for neither are they able to die anymore—for they are like messengers—and they are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
Tabakoyoofwa alimbi, nkaambo banooli bakozyania abangelo alimwi mbana ba Leza nkaambo mbana babubuke.
37 And that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the Bush, since he calls the LORD the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob;
Pesi abalabo bafwide bazobusigwa, alakwe Mozesi wakatondeezya kubusena bwalusaka, awo nayita kuti Leza wa Abbulahamu a Leza wa Ayizeki a Leza wa Jakobo.
38 and He is not a God of dead men, but of living, for all live to Him.”
Lino tachili Leza wabafwide pe, pesi wabawumi, nkaambo boonse bapona kulinguwe.
39 And certain of the scribes answering said, “Teacher, You said well”;
Bamwi balembi bamulawu bakasandula bati, “Muyiisyi wasandula kabotu.”
40 and they no longer dared question Him anything.
Nkaambo taakwe nibakachilikuyanda kweezya kumubuzya lubo iimbi mibuzyo.
41 And He said to them, “How do they say the Christ is [the] son of David,
Jesu wakatghji kulimbabo, “Baamba biyeni kuti Kkilisito mwana wa Davida?
42 and David himself says in [the] Scroll of Psalms, The LORD said to my Lord, Sit on My right hand,
Nkaambo Davida lwakwe mu Bbjuku lya Ntembawuzyo waamba kuti, Mwami wakati ku Mwami wangu, 'Kkala kululyo lwangu,
43 Until I will make Your enemies Your footstool;
mane ndikachite basinkondo nyokwe bakabe kunsi aamawulu aako'
44 David, then, calls Him Lord, and how is He his son?”
Aboobo Davida wiita Kkilisito kuti 'Mwami', mpo mwana wa Davida biyeni?”
45 And all the people hearing, He said to His disciples,
Kabamvwide bantu boonse wakati kulibasikwiiya bakwe,
46 “Take heed of the scribes, who are wishing to walk in long robes, and are cherishing salutations in the markets, and first seats in the synagogues, and first couches at the banquets,
“Amubaschenjelele balembi bamilawu, bayanisya kweenda kabazweete majansi malamfu, kabayanda kujuzigwa kulinsini muzisambalilo, azyuuno zipati muzikombelo azyuuno zisumpukide kumapobwe.
47 who devour the houses of the widows, and make long prayers for a pretense, these will receive more abundant judgment.”
Balatola maanda aabamukabafu, akweeneena kumchita nkombyo ndamfu. Aba bayotambula kunyonyoonwa kupati.”
