< Mark 12 >

1 And He began to speak to them in allegories: “A man planted a vineyard, and put a hedge around, and dug a wine vat, and built a tower, and gave it out to farmers, and went abroad;
Kayi Yesu walatatika kwamba kulyendibo mu mikoshanyo, walambeti, “Palikuba muntu naumbi walalima libala lya minyansa. walebaka luba kushunguluka libala, walemba cisengu cakutyaninamo minyansa ne kwibaka lupingwe. Libala ili walalibwelekesha ku balimi, nendi walaya kucishi cimbi.
2 and he sent to the farmers at the due time a servant, that from the farmers he may receive from the fruit of the vineyard,
Mpocalashika cindi ca kutebula, mwine libala walatuma musebenshi wakendi ku balimi mbwalabwelekesha, kwambeti bamupeko bisepo bya mulibala lisa.
3 and they, having taken him, severely beat [him], and sent him away empty.
Nomba nabo balamwikata, ne kumuma ne kumutandanya, walabwelelako wabula ciliconse mu makasa.
4 And again he sent to them another servant, and having cast stones at that one, they wounded [him] in the head, and sent [him] away—dishonored.
Mwine libala walatumako kayi musebenshi wakendi naumbi. Nomba uyu balamutoba luma mu mutwi ne kumucobola cipesha nsoni.
5 And again he sent another, and that one they killed; and many others, some beating, and some killing.
Kayi mwine libala walatumako naumbi, uyu balamushina. Kayi walatumako nabambi nabo balabauma, kayi nabambi balashina.
6 Having yet therefore one son—his beloved—he also sent him to them last, saying, They will respect my son;
Kwalashala muntu umo, mwanendi ngwalikusuna cikamba. Pakupwililisha mwine libala usa walatumako mwanendi,” Ne kwambeti, “Mwaname nibenga bamupe bulemu.”
7 and those farmers said among themselves, This is the heir, come, we may kill him, and the inheritance will be ours;
Nomba nabo balimi balatatika kumufwiya ne kwambeti, “Uyu endiye eshakapyane buboni bwa baishi, neco katumushinani kwambeti bukabe bwetu,
8 and having taken him, they killed, and cast [him] forth outside the vineyard.
Balamutanya, ne kumushina, ne kumuwala kunsa kwa luba lwa libala.”
9 What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.
“Inga mwine libala nakenseconi? Lakenga kubashina balimi bonse ne kubwelekesha libala lyakendi kubalimi nabambi.”
10 And this Writing you did not read: A stone that the builders rejected, it became the head of a corner;
Sena nkamuna mubelengapo Mabala alambangeti, “Libwe lya candanshi ndyebalakana Beshikwibaka, Lyalaba libwe lyayandika Kupita onse.
11 this was from the LORD, and it is wonderful in our eyes.”
Mwami mwine elacinshi, Kayi cakondelesha pakucibona?”
12 And they were seeking to lay hold on Him, and they feared the multitude, for they knew that He spoke the allegory against them, and having left Him, they went away;
Balelekesha kucana nshila ya kumwikatilamo, nomba balatina kufula kwa bantu, pakwinga balenshibeti wambangendibo mumukoshanyo, nomba balamushiya Yesu ne kuya.
13 and they send to Him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, that they may ensnare Him in discourse,
Bafalisi nabambi ne ba mucipani ca Helodi balatumwa kuli Yesu kwambeti bamutape mukwamba kwakendi.
14 and they having come, say to Him, “Teacher, we have known that You are true, and You are not caring for anyone, for You do not look to the face of men, but in truth teach the way of God; is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar or not? May we give, or may we not give?”
Mpobalashika kuli Yesu balambeti, “Bashikwiyisha tucinshi, kwambeti mukute kwamba cakubinga, kayi nkamukute kubona cilikunsa kwa muntu, nkamukute kusakamaneti uyu niyani, nsombi mukute kwiyisha nshila ya Lesa mwancine ncine, Sena kusonka musonko ku mwami wa ku Loma casuminishiwa nambi sobwe?”
15 And He, knowing their hypocrisy, said to them, “Why do you tempt Me? Bring Me a denarius, that I may see”;
“Tusonkenga misonko nambi sobwe?” Yesu pakubenshiba bundenga mano bwabo, walabambileti, “Ingamulanjelekeshelenga cani? Kamundetelani lyali ndilibone.”
16 and they brought, and He says to them, “Whose [is] this image, and the inscription?” And they said to Him, “Caesar’s”;
Balamutambika lyali, Yesu walabepusheti, “Inga cintimbwi cilipa lyali, ne walembapo niyani?” Balamukumbuleti “Ni ca Mwami waku Loma.”
17 and Jesus answering said to them, “Give back the things of Caesar to Caesar, and the things of God to God”; and they wondered at Him.
Neco Yesu walabambileti, “Mupeni Mwami waku Loma bintu byakendi, nendi Lesa mupeni bintu byakendi.” Nomba balakankamana ne kwamba kulico.
18 And the Sadducees come to Him, who say there is not a resurrection, and they questioned Him, saying,
Basaduki nabambi batashomo sha kupunduka kubafu balesa kuli Yesu ne kwambeti,
19 “Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if anyone’s brother may die, and may leave a wife, and may leave no children, that his brother may take his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.
“Bashikwiyisha, Mose walatulembela afwe kwambeti na muntu ufwa ushiya mukashi enka wabula mwana, kanike wakendi shikufwa amwebe mukalubingi ne kusemenamo bana mu mulamu wakendi mucimo ca mukwabo
20 There were then seven brothers, and the first took a wife, and dying, he left no seed;
Lino palikuba batuloba basanu ne babili pabukwabo. Mukulene bantu waleba mukashi, nsombi walafwa kwa kubula kushiyapo bana,
21 and the second took her, and died, not having left seed, and the third in like manner,
mukwabo wamukonkapo walamweba mukalubingi, neye walafwa katana asemenamo mwana. Calenshika copeleco ku mukwabo wa butatu.
22 and the seven took her, and left no seed, last of all the woman also died;
Walebwa kuli umo ne umo wa bonse basanu ne babili, nsombi bonse balafwa kwakubula kusemenamo bana, panyuma pakendi neye mukashi uyu walafwa.
23 in the resurrection, then, whenever they may rise, of which of them will she be wife—for the seven had her as wife?”
Lino bantu bakapundukanga kubafu nakabe mukashi wa bani? Pakwinga bonse basanu ne babili balamwebapo?”
24 And Jesus answering said to them, “Do you not go astray because of this, not knowing the Writings, nor the power of God?
Yesu walabakumbuleti, Sena ici nteco cilapeshengeti mulubile cakwinseti mubule kwinshiba Mabala ne ngofu sha Lesa?
25 For when they may rise out of the dead, they neither marry nor are they given in marriage, but are as messengers who are in the heavens.
Pakwinga bantu beti bakapunduke kubafu nteti bakebenga nambi kwebwa, pakwinga nibakabengeti bangelo ba kwilu.
26 And concerning the dead, that they rise: have you not read in the Scroll of Moses (at the bush), how God spoke to him, saying, I [am] the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob;
Na nimakani akwambeti sena bafwa nibakapunduke, sena muliya kubelengapo muli buku lya Mose mpalikwamba sha cifukusa calikubangila mulilo? Lesa mpwalambila Mose eti, “Ame njame Lesa wa Abulahamu, Lesa wa Isake, kayi Lesa wa Yakobo.
27 He is not the God of dead men, but a God of living men; you then go greatly astray.”
Nte Lesa wa bantu bafwa, nsombi wa bayumi, mwalubila kwine!”
28 And one of the scribes having come near, having heard them disputing, knowing that He answered them well, questioned Him, “Which is the first command of all?”
Umo wa beshikwiyisha milawo ya Mose walabanyumfwa kabakangana umo ne munendi. Kayi pakuboneti Yesu labakumbulu cakubinga ba Saduki, walamwipusha Yesu eti, “Inga nimulawo upeyo utanshi kupita yonse?”
29 And Jesus answered him, “The first of all the commands—Hear, O Israel: The LORD is our God, the LORD is one;
Yesu walamukumbuleti, Mulawo utanshi ni wakwambeti, “Kamunyumfwani amwe Baislayeli, Mwami Lesa wetu, eMwami umo enka bulyo walibela.
30 and you will love the LORD your God out of all your heart, and out of all your soul, and out of all your understanding, and out of all your strength—this [is] the first command;
Neco suna Mwami Lesa wakobe ne moyo wakobe wonse, ne mushimu wakobe onse, ne manjeyaulwa akobe onse, kayi ne ngofu shakobe shonse.”
31 and the second [is] like [it], this, You will love your neighbor as yourself—there is no other command greater than these.”
Mulawo watubili ni wakwambeti, “Suna munobe mbuli ncolisuni omwine, Paliya mulawo wapita pa milawo ibili iyi sobwe.”
32 And the scribe said to Him, “Well, Teacher, in truth You have spoken that there is one God, and there is none other but He;
Shikwiyisha Milawo ya Mose walamwambila Yesu, eti “Ncomulamba Bashikwiyisha nicakubinga, Ee pali Lesa umo enka, paliya naumbi sobwe nsombi enka bulyo.
33 and to love Him out of all the heart, and out of all the understanding, and out of all the soul, and out of all the strength, and to love one’s neighbor as one’s self, is more than all the whole burnt-offerings and the sacrifices.”
Nomba kusuna Lesa ne moyo wakobe wonse ne buyumi bwakobe bonse ne manjeyaulwa akobe onse, kayi ne ngofu shakobe shonse, ne kusuna bantu banobe mbuli ncolisuni, kulayandikinga kupita kutwala milumbo ya banyama ne milumbo naimbi kuli Lesa.”
34 And Jesus, having seen him that he answered with understanding, said to him, “You are not far from the Kingdom of God”; and no one dared question Him anymore.
Yesu pakwinshibeti lakumbulu camano, walamwambileti, “Obe nkolipo kutali ne Bwami bwa Lesa sobwe.” Neco bonse balaba ne buyowa, neco bonse balatina bamwipusha Yesu mwipusho naumbi.
35 And Jesus answering said, teaching in the temple, “How do the scribes say that the Christ is son of David?
Yesu mpwalikwiyisha Mung'anda ya Lesa, walepusheti, Inga beshikwiyisha milawo ya Mose ngabambeconi eti Klistu nimwanendi Dafeti?
36 For David himself said in the Holy Spirit, The LORD said to my Lord, Sit on My right hand, Until I place Your enemies—Your footstool;
Kakuli Dafeti mwine pakutanguninwa ne Mushimu Uswepa, walambeti, Mwami Lesa walamba kuli mwami wakame, eti kwesa wikale ku cikasa calulyo cabulemu, mpaka nkababike balwani bakobe panshi pa myendo yakobe.
37 therefore David himself calls Him Lord, and from where is He his son?” And the great multitude were hearing Him gladly,
Dafeti mwine walamwambeti, “Mwami” Ngobaconi mwanendi Dafeti? Likoto lyabantu balikumunyumfwa Yesu mwakukondwa.
38 and He was saying to them in His teaching, “Beware of the scribes who will to walk in long robes, and love salutations in the marketplaces,
Yesu mpwalikwiyisha, walambeti, “Cetukani ne beshikwiyisha milawo ya Mose, basuna kwendana kabali muminganjo yalelemba nekuyanda kupewa mitende yabulemu mu misena ya makwebo,
39 and first seats in the synagogues, and first couches at the banquets,
bakute kuyanda kwikala pa bipuna byakuntangu mung'anda ya kupaililamo, ne mumisena ya bulemu musena yamalyalya.
40 who are devouring the widows’ houses, and for a pretense are making long prayers; these will receive more abundant judgment.”
Aba bantu ebakute kupwisha buboni bwa bamukalubingi, nekulibonesheti bantu balulama mumipailo yabo itali itali, aba bantu nibakatambule lombolosho lunene!”
41 And Jesus having sat down opposite the treasury, was beholding how the multitude puts brass into the treasury, and many rich were putting in much,
Kayi Yesu mpwalekala pepi ne kabokoshi bantu nkobalikubikamo mali mung'anda kupaililamo, walikalangishisha bantu ncobalikubikamo mali. Abo balikuba ne buboni balikubikamo mali angi,
42 and having come, a poor widow put in two mites, which are a penny.
Palashika mukalubingi mupenshi, nendi walabikamo tumali tubili twa mukuba.
43 And having called near His disciples, He says to them, “Truly I say to you that this poor widow has put in more than all those putting into the treasury;
Neco walakuwa beshikwiya bakendi nekubambileti, cakubinga ndamwambilinga, mukalubingi mupenshi uyu labikimo mali angi kupita ngobalabikimo bonse.
44 for all, out of their abundance, put in, but she, out of her want, put in all that she had—all her living.”
Pakwinga bonse batapulanga pa mali apitilila pa mali ngobakute kusebensesha, nsombi nendi mubupenshi bwakendi labikimo mali ngwakutenga onka mung'anda, ebwanga buyumi bwakendi.
