Matthew 18
1 At that hour the disciples came near to Jesus, saying, “Who, now, is greater in the kingdom of the heavens?”
Muna thangu yina, minlonguki miyiza kuidi Yesu ayi minyuvula: —Buna nani lutidi munneni mu Kipfumu ki Diyilu e?
2 And Jesus having called near a child, set him in the midst of them,
Yesu wutumisa muana lezi, wuntelimisa va khatitsikꞌawu
3 and said, “Truly I say to you, if you may not be turned and become as the children, you may not enter into the kingdom of the heavens;
ayi vutuba: —Bukiedika ndikulukamba enati lukadi balula mavanga ayi enati lukadi kituka banga bana balezi, lulendi kota ko mu Kipfumu ki Diyilu.
4 whoever then may humble himself as this child, he is the greater in the kingdom of the heavens.
Diawu woso mutu wowo wukukikulula banga muana wawu, buna niandi lutidi munneni mu Kipfumu ki Diyilu.
5 And he who may receive one such child in My Name, receives Me,
Ayi woso mutu wowo wunyakulu muana lezi wuphila yayi mu dizina diama, minu kuandi kayakudi.
6 and whoever may cause to stumble one of those little ones who are believing in Me, it is better for him that a weighty millstone may be hanged on his neck, and he may be sunk in the depth of the sea.
Woso mutu wumbuisa mu masumu wumosi mu bana balezi bobo bakunguilukilanga, bulutidi mboti bankanga ditadi dinneni diodi beti nikina zitheti mu tsingu bosi bandiamisa ku tsi mbu.
7 Woe to the world from the stumbling-blocks! For there is necessity for the stumbling-blocks to come, but woe to that man through whom the stumbling-block comes!
A nga mabienga va nza mu diambu di ziphila-phila zi mambu momo meti buisa batu mu masumu! Mambu beni mafueti kaka kuiza vayi mabienga kuidi mutu wowo wuntonisanga mawu.
8 And if your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut them off and cast [them] from you; it is good for you to enter into life lame or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet, to be cast into the continuous fire. (aiōnios g166)
Enati koko kuaku voti kulu kuaku kulembo buisi mu masumu buna mboti mu zenga kuawu ayi loza kuawu thama. Bila mboti wukota ku luzingu ayi koko kuzengo voti kulu kuzengo ayi mu lozo ku mbazu yika yizimanga ko ayi mioko miodi miduka voti malu muadi maduka. (aiōnios g166)
9 And if your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and cast from you; it is good for you to enter into life one-eyed, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the Gehenna of fire. (Geenna g1067)
Enati dieso diaku dieta kubuisa mu masumu, dovula diawu ayi loza diawu ku thama! Bila bulutidi mboti mu kota ku luzingu mu kambu dieso ayi lozo ku mbazu yi bulungi ayi meso muadi maduka. (Geenna g1067)
10 Beware! You may not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you that their messengers in the heavens always behold the face of My Father who is in the heavens,
Lukeba Lubika lenza kani muana wumosi mu bana balezi baba bila ndikulukamba zimbasi ziawu ku Diyilu zintelamanga mu zi thangu zioso va ntuala zizi ki Dise diama diodi widi ku Diyilu.
11 [[for the Son of Man came to save the lost.]]
[Bila Muana Mutu wuyiza mu vukisa batu bobo bazimbala.]
12 What do you think? If a man may have one hundred sheep, and there may go astray one of them, does he not—having left the ninety-nine, having gone on the mountains—seek that which is gone astray?
Buevi lumbanza e? Enati mutu beki khama yi mamemi vayi dimosi dizimbidi, buna kalendi bika ko luvua ayi divua di mamemi mankaka va mbata mongo mu kuenda tombi diodi dizimbidi e?
13 And if it may come to pass that he finds it, truly I say to you that he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine that have not gone astray;
Enati mueni diawu, bukiedika ndikulukamba, makamona khini mu diambu di dimemi dina viokila khini yoyi kadi mu luvua ayi vua lu mamemi momo makambu zimbala.
14 so it is not [the] will in [the] presence of your Father who is in the heavens that one of these little ones may perish.
Phila yimosi ayi Dise dieno didi ku Diyilu, kakadi zola ti muana wumosi mu bana balezi baba kazimbala.
15 And if your brother may sin against you, go and show him his fault between you and him alone, if he may hear you, you gained your brother;
Enati khombꞌaku vengi mbimbi, yenda wuntala ngeyo veka ayi nkambi mbimbi yi kavengi va beno veka buadi. Enati wuwilukidi, buna vutudi khombꞌaku mu nzila yimboti.
16 and if he may not hear, take with you yet one or two, that by the mouth of two witnesses or three every word may stand.
Vayi enati kakadi wilukila, buna bonga mutu wumosi voti batu buadi mu diambu mamo mantubu makindusu mu kimbangi ki batu buadi voti ki batu batatu.
17 And if he may not hear them, say [it] to the assembly, and if also the assembly he may not hear, let him be to you as the heathen man and the tax collector.
Enati, kakadi wila batu beni, buna kamba mambu beni kuidi dibundu. Enati mengi kuandi wila dibundu, buna wuntalanga; banga Pakanu ayi mfutisi wu phaku.
18 Truly I say to you, whatever things you may bind on the earth will be having been bound in the heavens, and whatever things you may loose on the earth will be having been loosed in the heavens.
Bukiedika ndikulukamba ti mamo luela kanga vava ntoto, mela kangama ku Diyilu ayi mamo luela nianguna va ntoto mela niangunu ku Diyilu.
19 Again, I say to you that if two of you may agree on the earth concerning anything, whatever they may ask—it will be done to them from My Father who is in the heavens,
Ndikulukamba diaka enati batu buadi mu beno vava ntoto bawizini mu lomba dioso kuandi diambu, buna Dise diama diodi widi ku Diyilu wela kuba vana diawu.
20 for where there are two or three gathered together—to My Name, there am I in the midst of them.”
Bila vana vakutikini batu buadi voti batu batatu mu dizina diama, minu ndidi va khatitsikꞌawu.
21 Then Peter having come near to Him, said, “Lord, how often will my brother sin against me, and I forgive him—until seven times?”
Piela wufikama vaba Yesu, wunyuvula: —A Pfumu! Zikhumbu zikua mbeki bu lemvukila khombꞌama wukuphangilanga mambu mambimbi e? Tsambuadi di zikhumbu kaka e?
22 Jesus says to him, “I do not say to you until seven times, but until seventy times seven.
Yesu wumvutudila: —Nana, ndikadi kukamba ti tsambuadi di zikhumbu kaka vayi nate lusambudi lu zikhumbu bunda tsambuadi.
23 Because of this was the kingdom of the heavens likened to a man, a king, who willed to take reckoning with his servants,
Diawu Kipfumu ki Diyilu kidedikini banga ntinu wuzola tanga bima biandi ayi bisadi biandi.
24 and he having begun to take account, there was brought near to him one debtor of a myriad of talents,
Buna katona tanga bima biandi, bannatina kisadi kimosi kiba pholo andi yi kumi di mili di bitalanta.
25 and he having nothing to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and the children, and all, whatever he had, and payment to be made.
Vayi bu kasia nunga ko futa; diawu pfumuꞌandi katumina ti bansumbisa niandi veka ayi nketoꞌandi ayi bana bandi ayi bima biandi bioso muingi pholo andi yifutama.
26 The servant then, having fallen down, was prostrating to him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay you all;
Vayi kisadi beni kifukama va malu mandi ayi kinleba: “Bika wumvibidila! Mandifuta pholoꞌaku yoso!”
27 and the lord of that servant having been moved with compassion released him, and the debt he forgave him.
Pfumu wu kisadi kioki wummona kiadi, wunyekula ayi wunlemvukila pholoꞌandi yoso.
28 And that servant having come forth, found one of his fellow-servants who was owing him one hundred denarii, and having laid hold, he took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that which you owe.
Kisadi beni bu katotuka, wudengana nkundi andi, muisi kisalu yandi; wundeva khama yimosi yi zidenali. Niandi wumbuila ayi wumfieta va dinga ayi wunkamba: “futa pholoꞌama”.
29 His fellow-servant then, having fallen down at his feet, was calling on him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay you all;
Nkundi andi wu kisalu wufukama ayi wunleba: “Bika wumvibidila! Mandifuta pholoꞌku.”
30 and he would not, but having gone away, he cast him into prison, until he might pay that which was owing.
Vayi wumanga vibidila, wuyenda kunkangisa nate kamanisa futa pholo yoso.
31 And his fellow-servants having seen the things that were done, were grieved exceedingly, and having come, showed fully to their lord all the things that were done;
Bakundi ba kisalu bankaka bamona kiadi kiwombo bu bamona bu viokila mambu moso. Diawu bayenda kambila pfumu kisalu mambu moso bu mabela.
32 then having called him, his lord says to him, Evil servant! All that debt I forgave you, seeing you called on me;
Buna Pfumu beni wutumisa kisadi beni, wunkamba: “Widi kisadi kimbimbi! Minu ndilemvukila pholo yoso bila wundeba ngolo.
33 did it not seem necessary to you to have dealt kindly with your fellow servant, as I also dealt kindly with you?
A bila mbi wusi monina ko khombꞌaku kiadi, banga bobo minu ndimueniningi kiadi e?”
34 And having been angry, his lord delivered him to the inquisitors, until he might pay all that was owing to him;
Pfumu wufuema buwombo ayi wunyekula mu mioko mi batu bobo banyamisanga batu nate kela manisa futa pholoꞌandi yoso.
35 so also My heavenly Father will do to you, if you may not forgive each one his brother from your hearts their trespasses.”
Buawu bobo buela kuluvangila Dise diama didi ku Diyilu enati kadika mutu mu beno mengi lemvukila khombꞌandi mu ntima wukiedika.
