Matthew 12
1 At that time Jesus went on the Sabbaths through the grainfields, and His disciples were hungry, and they began to pluck ears, and to eat,
Awo mu kiseera ekyo Yesu n’ayita mu nnimiro y’emmere ey’empeke ku lunaku lwa Ssabbiiti. Abayigirizwa be ne balumwa enjala ne batandika okunoga ebirimba by’eŋŋaano ne babirya.
2 and the Pharisees having seen, said to Him, “Behold, Your disciples do that which it is not lawful to do on a Sabbath.”
Naye Abafalisaayo bwe baalaba kino ne bagamba Yesu nti, “Laba abayigirizwa bo bakola ekitakkirizibwa kukolebwa ku Ssabbiiti.”
3 And He said to them, “Did you not read what David did when he was hungry, himself and those with him—
Naye Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Temusomanga ku Dawudi kye yakola bwe yalumwa enjala ne be yali nabo?
4 how he went into the house of God, and ate the Bread of the Presentation, which it is not lawful to him to eat, nor to those with him, except to the priests alone?
Yayingira mu nnyumba ya Katonda n’alya emigaati egy’okulaga, egikkirizibwa bakabona bokka okulya.
5 Or did you not read in the Law that on the Sabbaths the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath and are blameless?
Oba temusomanga mu mateeka nti bakabona ababeera mu luwalo lw’okuweereza mu Yeekaalu ne basobya ku Ssabbiiti tebaliiko musango?
6 And I say to you that [One] greater than the temple is here;
Naye mbagamba nti ekisinga Yeekaalu kiri wano.
7 and if you had known what [this] is: Kindness I will, and not sacrifice—you had not condemned the blameless,
Naye singa mumanyi amakulu ga kino nti, ‘Njagala mubeerenga ba kisa okusinga okuwangayo ssaddaaka,’ temwandinenyezza bataliiko musango.
8 for the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”
Kubanga Omwana w’Omuntu ye Mukama wa Ssabbiiti.”
9 And having departed from there, He went to their synagogue,
N’avaayo n’ajja mu kuŋŋaaniro lyabwe.
10 and behold, there was a man having the hand withered, and they questioned Him, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbaths?” That they might accuse Him.
Laba mwalimu omusajja eyalina omukono ogwakala. Ne babuuza Yesu obanga kikkirizibwa okuwonya ku Ssabbiiti. Baali basuubira nti anaddamu nti kituufu, balyoke bamuwawaabire.
11 And He said to them, “What man will be of you who will have one sheep, and if this may fall on the Sabbaths into a ditch, will not lay hold on it and raise [it]?
Naye n’abaddamu nti, “Singa wabaddewo omuntu mu mmwe ng’alina endiga emu, n’egwa mu bunnya ku lunaku lwa Ssabbiiti, tagiggyamu?
12 How much better, therefore, is a man than a sheep? So that it is lawful on the Sabbaths to do good.”
Kale, omuntu tasinga nnyo endiga omuwendo? Noolwekyo kikkirizibwa okukola ekirungi ku Ssabbiiti.”
13 Then He says to the man, “Stretch forth your hand,” and he stretched [it] forth, and it was restored whole as the other.
Bw’atyo n’agamba omusajja nti, “Golola omukono gwo.” N’agugolola ne guwona, ne guba mulamu nga gunnaagwo!
14 And the Pharisees having gone forth, held a consultation against Him, how they might destroy Him,
Awo Abafalisaayo ne bafuluma ne bateesa nga bwe banaazikiriza Yesu.
15 and Jesus having known, withdrew from there, and there followed Him great multitudes, and He healed them all,
Naye Yesu bwe yakimanya n’afuluma mu kuŋŋaaniro, abantu bangi nnyo ne bamugoberera, n’awonya abaali abalwadde bonna,
16 and charged them that they might not make Him apparent,
kyokka n’abakomako baleme okumwatuukiriza.
17 that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
Ebyayogerwa Nnabbi Isaaya biryoke bituukirire nti:
18 “Behold, My Servant, whom I chose, My Beloved, in whom My soul delighted, I will put My Spirit on Him, And He will declare judgment to the nations;
“Laba Omuweereza wange, ggwe neerondera, gwe njagala ennyo asanyusa emmeeme yange. Ndimuteekako Omwoyo wange era Alisalira amawanga gonna emisango.
19 He will not strive nor cry, Nor will any hear His voice in the broad places;
Taliyomba so talireekaana, era tewaliba n’omu aliwulira eddoboozi lye mu nguudo.
20 A bruised reed He will not break, And smoking flax He will not quench, Until He may put forth judgment to victory,
Talimenya lumuli lunafu, wadde okuzikiriza olutambi lw’ettaala olunyooka.
21 And in His Name will nations hope.”
Era abamawanga baliba n’essuubi mu linnya lye.”
22 Then was brought to Him a demoniac, blind and mute, and He healed him, so that the blind and mute both spoke and saw.
Awo Yesu ne bamuleetera omusajja eyaliko dayimooni, nga muzibe w’amaaso era nga tayogera. N’amuwonya, omusajja eyali tasobola kwogera n’asobola okwogera n’okulaba.
23 And all the multitudes were amazed and said, “Is this the Son of David?”
Abantu bonna ne beewuunya ne boogera nti, “Ddala ddala ono si mwana wa Dawudi?”
24 But the Pharisees having heard, said, “This One does not cast out demons, except by Beelzebul, ruler of the demons.”
Naye Abafalisaayo bwe baakiwulira ne boogera nti, “Ono agoba baddayimooni ku bwa Beeruzebuli omukulu wa baddayimooni.”
25 And Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said to them, “Every kingdom having been divided against itself is desolated, and no city or house having been divided against itself stands,
Yesu bwe yategeera ebirowoozo byabwe n’abagamba nti, “Obwakabaka bwe bwawukanamu, oba ekibuga wadde amaka, tebiyinza kuyimirira.
26 and if Satan casts out Satan, against himself he was divided, how then does his kingdom stand?
Ne Setaani bw’agoba Setaani munne ku muntu aba yeyawuddemu. Obwakabaka bwe bunaayimirira butya?
27 And if I, by Beelzebul, cast out the demons, your sons—by whom do they cast out? Because of this they will be your judges.
Obanga Nze ngoba baddayimooni ku bwa Beeruzebuli omukulu wa baddayimooni, kale batabani bammwe babagoba ku bw’ani? Noolwekyo be bali basalira omusango.
28 But if I, by the Spirit of God, cast out the demons, then the Kingdom of God has already come to you.
Naye bwe mba ngoba baddayimooni n’amaanyi g’Omwoyo wa Katonda, kale Obwakabaka bwa Katonda buzze gye muli.
29 Or how is one able to go into the house of the strong man, and to snatch his goods, if first he may not bind the strong man? And then his house he will plunder.
“Oba omuntu ayinza atya okuyingira mu nnyumba y’omuntu ow’amaanyi, n’amunyagako ebintu bye okuggyako ng’asooka okusiba ow’amaanyi oyo? Olwo n’alyoka anyaga ebintu bye.
30 He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who is not gathering with Me, scatters.
“Oyo atali nange, mulabe wange. N’oyo atakuŋŋaanyiza wamu nange asaasaanya.
31 Because of this I say to you, all sin and slander will be forgiven to men, but the slander of the Spirit will not be forgiven to men.
Noolwekyo mbategeereza ddala nti omuntu alisonyiyibwa buli kibi kyonna, na buli kuvvoola. Naye alivvoola Mwoyo Mutukuvu talisonyiyibwa.
32 And whoever may speak a word against the Son of Man it will be forgiven to him, but whoever may speak against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, neither in this age, nor in that which is coming. (aiōn g165)
Na buli muntu ayogera ekigambo ekibi ku Mwana w’Omuntu alisonyiyibwa, naye ayogera ekibi ku Mwoyo Omutukuvu talisonyiyibwa mu mulembe guno wadde ogugenda okujja. (aiōn g165)
33 Either make the tree good, and its fruit good, or make the tree bad, and its fruit bad, for from the fruit is the tree known.
“Buli muti gutegeererwa ku bibala byagwo. Omuti bw’ogulabirira gubala ebibala ebirungi, naye bw’ogulagajjalira tegubala bibala.
34 Brood of vipers! How are you able to speak good things—being evil? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
Mmwe abaana b’embalasaasa, mmwe abalina ebibi muyinza mutya okwogera ebirungi? Akamwa koogera ku biba bijjudde mu mutima.
35 The good man out of the good treasure of the heart puts forth the good things, and the evil man out of the evil treasure puts forth evil things.
Omuntu omulungi afulumya ebirungi okuva mu tterekero lye eddungi, era n’omuntu omubi afulumya ebibi okuva mu tterekero lye ebbi.
36 And I say to you that every idle word that men may speak, they will give for it a reckoning in [the] day of judgment;
Era mbategeeza nti buli kigambo kyonna ekitasaana abantu kye boogera, kiribabuuzibwa ku lunaku olw’okusalirako emisango.
37 for from your words you will be declared righteous, and from your words you will be declared unrighteous.”
Bwe bityo ebigambo byo bye birikuweesa obutuukirivu era ebigambo byo bye birikusalizisa omusango.”
38 Then certain of the scribes and Pharisees answered, saying, “Teacher, we will to see a sign from You.”
Awo abamu ku bannyonnyozi b’amateeka n’Abafalisaayo ne bagamba Yesu nti, “Omuyigiriza twagala otulage akabonero.”
39 And He answering said to them, “A generation, evil and adulterous, seeks a sign, and a sign will not be given to it, except the sign of Jonah the prophet;
Naye n’abaddamu nti, “Omulembe omwonoonefu era omwenzi ogunoonya akabonero; temugenda kuweebwa kabonero okuggyako aka nnabbi Yona.
40 for as Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights, so will the Son of Man be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights.
Kubanga Yona nga bwe yamala mu lubuto lw’ekyennyanja ekinene ennaku ssatu emisana n’ekiro, n’Omwana w’Omuntu bw’atyo bw’alimala mu ttaka ennaku ssatu emisana n’ekiro.
41 Men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, for they converted at the proclamation of Jonah, and behold, [One] greater than Jonah [is] here!
Abantu b’e Nineeve baliyimirira ne basaliza abantu b’omulembe guno omusango okubasinga, kubanga beenenya bwe baawulira okubuulira kwa Yona. Naye laba asinga Yona ali wano.
42 A queen of the south will rise up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, [One] greater than Solomon [is] here!
Era ku lunaku olw’okusalirako omusango, kabaka omukazi ow’omu bukiikaddyo alisaliza abantu ab’omulembe guno omusango okubasinga, kubanga yava ku nkomerero y’ensi okujja okuwuliriza amagezi ga Sulemaani. Naye laba asinga Sulemaani ali wano.
43 And when the unclean spirit may go forth from the man, it walks through dry places seeking rest and does not find;
“Omwoyo ogutali mulongoofu bwe guva mu muntu guyita mu malungu nga gunoonya aw’okuwumulirako, ne gutafuna wa kuwummulira.
44 then it says, I will return to my house from where I came forth; and having come, it finds [it] unoccupied, swept, and adorned:
Kyeguva gugamba nti, ‘Leka nzireyo mu nnyumba mwe nava.’ Bwe guddayo gusanga nkalu, nga eyereddwa era nga ntegeke.
45 then it goes, and takes with itself seven other spirits more evil than itself, and having gone in they dwell there, and the last of that man becomes worse than the first; so will it also be to this evil generation.”
Kyeguva gugenda ne guleeta emyoyo emirala musanvu egigusingako obwonoonefu, ne giyingira mu nnyumba omwo ne gibeera omwo. Olwo omuntu oyo n’abeera bubi nnyo okusinga bwe yali okusooka. Bwe kityo bwe kiriba n’omulembe guno omwonoonefu.”
46 And while He was yet speaking to the multitudes, behold, His mother and brothers had stood outside, seeking to speak to Him,
Yesu bwe yali akyayogera n’ekibiina, nnyina ne baganda be ne batuuka ne bayimirira ebweru nga baagala okwogera naye.
47 and one said to Him, “Behold, Your mother and Your brothers stand outside, seeking to speak to You.”
Omuntu omu n’amutegeeza nti, “Nnyoko ne baganda bo, bali wabweru baagala kwogera nawe.”
48 And He answering said to him who spoke to Him, “Who is My mother? And who are My brothers?”
Yesu n’amuddamu nti, “Mmange ye ani era ne baganda bange be baani?”
49 And having stretched forth His hand toward His disciples, He said, “Behold, My mother and My brothers!
N’agolola omukono gwe eri abayigirizwa be n’agamba nti, “Mulabe mmange ne baganda bange!
50 For whoever may do the will of My Father who is in the heavens, He is My brother, and sister, and mother.”
Kubanga buli akola ebyo Kitange ali mu ggulu by’ayagala oyo ye muganda wange, ye mwannyinaze era ye mmange.”
