Matthew 19
1 And it came to pass, when Jesus finished these words, He removed from Galilee, and came to the borders of Judea, beyond the Jordan,
Awo Yesu bwe yamala okwogera ebigambo ebyo n’ava e Ggaliraaya n’ajja mu bitundu bya Buyudaaya okusukka emitala wa Yoludaani.
2 and great multitudes followed Him, and He healed them there.
Ekibiina kinene ne bamugoberera era n’awonya abalwadde baabwe.
3 And the Pharisees came near to Him, tempting Him, and saying to Him, “Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?”
Abafalisaayo ne bajja gy’ali bamugezese nga bagamba nti, “Kikkirizibwa omusajja okugoba mukazi we olw’ensonga n’emu?”
4 And He answering said to them, “Did you not read that He who made [them] from the beginning, made them a male and a female,
Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Temusomanga nti, ‘Okuva ku lubereberye Katonda yatonda omusajja n’omukazi,’
5 and said, For this cause will a man leave father and mother, and cleave to his wife, and they will be—the two—for one flesh?
era nti, ‘Omusajja anaalekanga kitaawe ne nnyina, ne yeegatta ne mukazi we. Nabo banaabanga omuntu omu,
6 So that they are no longer two, but one flesh; what therefore God joined together, let no man separate.”
nga tebakyali babiri naye omuntu omu.’ Noolwekyo Katonda be yagatta awamu, omuntu tabaawukanyanga.”
7 They say to Him, “Why then did Moses command to give a roll of divorce, and to put her away?”
Ne bamubuuza nti, “Kale lwaki Musa yalagira nti omusajja bw’abanga agoba mukazi we amuwenga ebbaluwa ey’okumugoba?”
8 He says to them, “Moses for your stiffness of heart permitted you to put away your wives, but from the beginning it has not been so.
Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Olw’obukakanyavu bw’emitima gyammwe, Musa kyeyava abakkiriza okugoba bakazi bammwe, naye nga okuva olubereberye tekyali bwe kityo.
9 And I say to you that whoever may put away his wife, if not for whoredom, and may marry another, commits adultery; and he who married her that has been put away, commits adultery.”
Era mbagamba nti omuntu yenna anaagobanga mukazi we okuggyako olw’obwenzi, n’amala awasa omulala, anaabanga ayenze, n’oyo anaawasanga oyo agobeddwa anaabanga ayenze.”
10 His disciples say to Him, “If the case of the man with the woman is so, it is not good to marry.”
Abayigirizwa ne bamugamba nti, “Obanga bwe biri bwe bityo, ekisingako obulungi bwe butawasiza ddala!”
11 And He said to them, “All do not receive this word, but those to whom it has been given;
Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Abantu bonna tebayinza kutegeera kigambo kino okuggyako abo Katonda b’akiwa.
12 for there are eunuchs who from the mother’s womb were so born; and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs who kept themselves eunuchs because of the kingdom of the heavens: he who is able to receive [it]—let him receive.”
Kubanga abamu bazaalibwa nga tebasobola kuwasa abalala balaayibwa bantu bannaabwe ate abalala bagaana okuwasa ne beewaayo okukola omulimu ogw’obwakabaka obw’omu ggulu. Buli asobola okutegeera kino akitegeere.”
13 Then were brought near to Him children that He might put hands on them and pray, and the disciples rebuked them.
Yesu ne bamuleetera abaana abato abasseeko emikono gye abawe n’omukisa. Naye abayigirizwa ne bajunga abaabaleeta.
14 But Jesus said, “Permit the children, and do not forbid them to come to Me, for of such is the kingdom of the heavens”;
Naye Yesu n’agamba abayigirizwa be nti, “Mukkirize abaana abato bajje gye ndi so temubaziyiza, kubanga abafaanana ng’abo be bannannyini bwakabaka obw’omu ggulu.”
15 and having laid [His] hands on them, He departed from there.
N’abassaako emikono n’abawa omukisa n’alyoka avaayo.
16 And behold, one having come near, said to Him, “Good Teacher, what good thing will I do that I may have continuous life?” (aiōnios g166)
Awo omuntu omu n’amusemberera n’amubuuza nti, “Omuyigiriza, nkole ki ekirungi okufuna obulamu obutaggwaawo?” (aiōnios g166)
17 And He said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one [is] good except one—God; but if you will to enter into life, keep the commands.”
Yesu n’amuddamu nti, “Lwaki ombuuza ebikwata ku birungi? Omulungi ali omu, naye bw’obanga oyagala okuyingira mu bulamu, ggondera amateeka.”
18 He says to Him, “What kind?” And Jesus said, “You will not murder, You will not commit adultery, You will not steal, You will not bear false witness,
N’amuddamu nti, “Ge galuwa?” Yesu n’amugamba nti, “‘Tottanga, toyendanga, tobbanga, towaayirizanga,
19 Honor your father and mother, and, You will love your neighbor as yourself.”
ossangamu ekitiibwa kitaawo ne nnyoko era yagalanga muliraanwa wo nga bwe weeyagala wekka.’”
20 The young man says to Him, “All these I kept from my youth; what yet do I lack?”
Omuvubuka oyo n’amuddamu nti, “Ebyo byonna nabikwata dda, ate kiki ekimpeebuuseeko?”
21 Jesus said to him, “If you will to be perfect, go away, sell what you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in Heaven, and come, follow Me.”
Yesu n’amugamba nti, “Obanga oyagala okuba omutuukirivu genda otunde ebibyo, ensimbi ozigabire abaavu, kale oliba n’obugagga mu ggulu, olyoke ojje ongoberere.”
22 And the young man, having heard the word, went away sorrowful, for he had many possessions;
Naye omuvubuka bwe yawulira ebyo n’agenda ng’anakuwadde kubanga yali mugagga.
23 and Jesus said to His disciples, “Truly I say to you that hardly will a rich man enter into the kingdom of the heavens;
Awo Yesu n’agamba abayigirizwa be nti, “Ddala ddala mbagamba nti, kizibu omugagga okuyingira mu bwakabaka obw’omu ggulu.
24 and again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God.”
Era mbategeeza nti kyangu eŋŋamira okuyita mu nnyindo y’empiso, okusinga omugagga okuyingira mu bwakabaka bwa Katonda!”
25 And His disciples having heard, were exceedingly amazed, saying, “Who, then, is able to be saved?”
Ebigambo ebyo abayigirizwa be ne bibeewuunyisa nnyo, n’okugamba ne bagamba nti, “Kale ani ayinza okulokolebwa?”
26 And Jesus having earnestly beheld, said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
Yesu n’abatunuulira enkaliriza n’abagamba nti, “Eri abantu tekiyinzika. Naye Katonda, ayinza byonna.”
27 Then Peter answering said to Him, “Behold, we left all, and followed You, what then will we have?”
Awo Peetero n’abuuza Yesu nti, “Ffe twaleka byonna ne tukugoberera. Kale ffe tulifuna ki?”
28 And Jesus said to them, “Truly I say to you that you who followed Me, in the regeneration, when the Son of Man may sit on a throne of His glory, will sit—you also—on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel;
Yesu n’amuddamu nti, “Ddala ddala mbagamba nti, Omwana w’Omuntu bw’alituula ku ntebe ye ey’ekitiibwa mu nsi empya, nammwe abangoberera mulituula ku ntebe ekkumi n’ebbiri nga mulamula ebika bya Isirayiri ekkumi n’ebibiri.
29 and everyone who left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or fields, for My Name’s sake, will receive a hundredfold, and will inherit continuous life; (aiōnios g166)
Na buli muntu yenna eyaleka ennyumba, oba baganda be, oba bannyina, oba kitaawe oba nnyina, oba baana be, oba ttaka lye olw’erinnya lyange aliweebwa okwenkana emirundi kikumi, era alisikira obulamu obutaggwaawo. (aiōnios g166)
30 and many first will be last, and last first.”
Bangi aboolubereberye, abaliba abooluvannyuma, n’ab’oluvannyuma ne baba aboolubereberye.”
