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],
Awo Yesu bwe yali ng’ayigiriza era ng’abuulira Enjiri mu luggya lwa Yeekaalu, bakabona abakulu, n’abannyonnyozi b’amateeka n’abakulembeze b’Abayudaaya ne bajja gy’ali.
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?”
Ne bamubuuza nti, “Tubuulire, buyinza ki obukukozesa bino? Era ani eyakuwa obuyinza obwo?”
3 And He answering said to them, “I will question you—I also—one thing, and tell Me:
Yesu n’addamu nti, “Nange ka mbabuuze ekibuuzo kino.
4 the immersion of John, was it from Heaven, or from men?”
Okubatiza kwa Yokaana kwava eri Katonda nandiki kwava mu bantu?”
5 And they reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we may say, From Heaven, He will say, Why, then, did you not believe him?
Ne basooka okwogeraganyaamu bokka ne bokka nga bagamba nti, “Bwe tunaagamba nti, ‘Kwava mu ggulu,’ ajja kutubuuza nti, ‘Kale, lwaki temwamukkiriza?’
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.”
Naye ate bwe tunaddamu nti, ‘Kwava mu bantu,’ abantu bonna bajja kutukuba amayinja, kubanga bamatizibwa nti Yokaana yali nnabbi.”
7 And they answered that they did not know from where [it was],
Kyebaava baddamu nti, “Tetumanyi gye kwava.”
8 and Jesus said to them, “Neither do I say to you by what authority I do these things.”
Yesu n’abagamba nti, “Nange sijja kubabuulira gye nzigya obuyinza obunkozesa bino.”
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,
Awo Yesu n’akyukira abantu n’abagerera olugero luno nti, “Waaliwo omusajja eyalina ennimiro ey’emizabbibu, n’agipangisa abalimi, n’agenda olugendo, n’amalayo ebbanga ddene.
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.
Awo ekiseera eky’amakungula bwe kyatuuka, n’atuma omu ku baddu be eri abalimi bamuwe ku bibala eby’emizabbibu gye. Naye abalimi abapangisa ne bamukuba ne bamugoba n’addayo ngalo nsa eri mukama we.
11 And he added to send another servant, and they also having beaten and dishonored that one, sent [him] away empty;
N’abatumira omuddu we omulala, n’oyo ne bamukuba ne bamuswaza nnyo, n’addayo ngalo nsa.
12 and he added to send a third, and this one also, having wounded, they cast out.
N’abatumira omuddu owookusatu, naye ne bamukuba ne bamussaako n’ebiwundu ne bamugoba mu nnimiro.
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];
“Nannyini nnimiro ne yeebuuza nti, ‘Nkole ntya? Ka mbatumire omwana wange gwe njagala ennyo, oboolyawo banaamussaamu ekitiibwa.’
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;
“Omwana oyo bwe baamulengera ne bateesa nti, ‘Ono y’agenda okusikira ennimiro eno nga kitaawe afudde. Ka tumutte, ebyobusika tubyesigalize.’
15 and having cast him outside of the vineyard, they killed [him]; what, then, will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
Ne bamuggya mu nnimiro nga bamukulula ne bamutta. “Mulowooza nannyini nnimiro abalimi abo alibakola atya?
16 He will come, and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.” And having heard, they said, “Let it not be!”
Agenda kujja abazikirize bonna, n’ennimiro agiwe abalala.” Awo bwe baabiwulira ebyo ne bagamba nti, “Ekintu ng’ekyo kireme kubaawo!”
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?
Yesu n’abatunuulira n’abagamba nti, “Kale ekyawandiikibwa kino kitegeeza ki? Ekigamba nti, “‘Ejjinja abazimbi lye baagaana, lye lifuuse ejjinja ekkulu ery’oku nsonda.’
18 Everyone who has fallen on that stone will be broken, and on whom it may fall, it will crush him to pieces.”
Omuntu yenna agwa ku jjinja eryo alibetentebwa, na buli gwe lirigwako lirimubetenta.”
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.
Awo abannyonnyozi b’amateeka ne bakabona abakulu bwe baawulira ebigambo ebyo, ne baagala bamukwatirewo mangwago, kubanga baamanya ng’olugero lwali lukwata ku bo. Naye ne batya abantu.
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,
Ne balinda okutuusa lwe banaafuna akaagaanya babeeko kye bakola. Ne batuma abakessi eri Yesu nga beefudde ng’abantu abalungi abaagala okumanya. Baasuubira nti mu ebyo by’anaddamu, nga bamubuuzizza ebibuuzo ebirimu emitego, munaabaamu kwe banaasinziira okumukwata ne bamuwaayo ewa gavana.
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.
Abakessi ne babuuza Yesu nti, “Omuyigiriza, tumanyi nga By’oyogera n’ebyo by’oyigiriza bya mazima, era nga tofaayo ku bigambo eby’abantu obuntu wabula oyigiriza ebyo Katonda by’ayagala.
22 Is it lawful to us to give tribute to Caesar or not?”
Kyetuva tukubuuza nti kituufu okuwa Kayisaali omusolo oba si kituufu?”
23 And He, having perceived their craftiness, said to them, “Why do you tempt Me?
Yesu n’ategeera mangu obukuusa bwabwe, n’abagamba nti,
24 Show Me a denarius; of whom does it have an image and inscription?” And they answering said, “Of Caesar”:
“Mundage ensimbi eya ffeeza. Ekifaananyi kino ekiriko ky’ani? N’erinnya lino ly’ani?” Ne baddamu nti, “Bya Kayisaali.”
25 and He said to them, “Give back, therefore, the things of Caesar to Caesar, and the things of God to God”;
N’abagamba nti, “Kale ebya Kayisaali mubiwenga Kayisaali, n’ebya Katonda mubiwenga Katonda.”
26 and they were not able to take hold on His saying before the people, and having wondered at His answer, they were silent.
Ne balemwa okumukwasa mu ebyo bye yaddamu ng’abantu bonna bali awo. Bye yaddamu ne bibeewuunyisa nnyo, ne basirika busirisi.
27 And certain of the Sadducees, who are denying that there is a resurrection, having come near, questioned Him,
Awo abamu ku Basaddukaayo abatakkiririza mu kuzuukira, ne bajja eri Yesu, ne bamubuuza nti,
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.
“Omuyigiriza, amateeka ga Musa gagamba nti ssinga omusajja omufumbo afa nga tazadde baana, muganda we awasenga nnamwandu alyoke afunire muganda we omufu ezzadde.
29 There were, then, seven brothers, and the first having taken a wife, died childless,
Waaliwo abooluganda musanvu, asinga obukulu n’awasa, kyokka n’afa nga talese mwana.
30 and the second took the wife, and he died childless,
Adda ku mufu n’awasa nnamwandu; kyokka naye n’afa nga tazadde mwana.
31 and the third took her, and in like manner also the seven—they left no children, and they died;
Okutuusa abooluganda bonna lwe baafa ne baggwaawo nga buli omu awasizza ku nnamwandu oyo, kyokka nga tewali alese mwana.
32 and last of all the woman also died:
Oluvannyuma n’omukazi naye n’afa.
33 in the resurrection, then, of which of them does she become wife? For the seven had her as wife.”
Kale mu kuzuukira omukazi oyo aliba muka ani? Kubanga abooluganda bonna omusanvu yabafumbirwako!”
34 And Jesus answering said to them, “The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage, (aiōn g165)
Yesu n’addamu nti, “Obufumbo buli kuno ku nsi, abantu kwe bawasiza era ne bafumbirwa. (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)
Naye abo abasaanyizibwa okuzuukira mu bafu bwe batuuka mu ggulu tebawasa wadde okufumbirwa, (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.
era tebaddayo kufa nate, kubanga baba nga bamalayika. Era baba baana ba Katonda kubanga baba bazuukizibbwa mu bulamu obuggya,
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;
Naye nti abafu bazuukizibwa, ne Musa yannyonnyola bye yalaba ku kisaka, bwe yayita Mukama Katonda wa Ibulayimu, Katonda wa Isaaka, era Katonda wa Yakobo.
38 and He is not a God of dead men, but of living, for all live to Him.”
Kino kitegeeza nti ssi Katonda wa bafu wabula Katonda wa balamu, kubanga bonna balamu gy’ali.”
39 And certain of the scribes answering said, “Teacher, You said well”;
Abamu ku bannyonnyozi b’amateeka ne bagamba nti, “Omuyigiriza, ozzeemu bulungi!”
40 and they no longer dared question Him anything.
Ne watabaawo ayaŋŋanga kwongera kumubuuza bibuuzo birala.
41 And He said to them, “How do they say the Christ is [the] son of David,
Awo Yesu n’ababuuza nti, “Lwaki Kristo ayitibwa Omwana wa Dawudi?
42 and David himself says in [the] Scroll of Psalms, The LORD said to my Lord, Sit on My right hand,
Songa Dawudi amwogerako mu Zabbuli nti, “‘Katonda yagamba Mukama wange nti, Tuula ku mukono gwange ogwa ddyo
43 Until I will make Your enemies Your footstool;
okutuusa lwe ndifuula abalabe bo entebe y’ebigere byo.’
44 David, then, calls Him Lord, and how is He his son?”
Noolwekyo obanga Dawudi amuyita Mukama we, kale ayinza atya okuba omwana we?”
45 And all the people hearing, He said to His disciples,
Awo abantu bonna nga bawulira, Yesu n’akyukira abayigirizwa be n’abagamba nti,
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,
“Mwekuume abannyonnyozi b’amateeka. Baagala nnyo okutambula nga bambadde amaganduula agagenda gakweya, n’abantu okugenda nga babalamusa mu butale, era baagala nnyo okutuula mu bifo eby’ekitiibwa mu makuŋŋaaniro ne ku mbaga!
47 who devour the houses of the widows, and make long prayers for a pretense, these will receive more abundant judgment.”
Balimbalimba nga basaba essaala empanvu, ng’eno bwe basala enkwe okunyaga ebintu bya bannamwandu. Noolwekyo bagenda kufuna ekibonerezo ekisingira ddala obunene.”
