Matthew 21
1 And when they came near to Jerusalem, and came to Bethphage, to the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,
Awo Jesu abasikwiya bakwe nibakasika ku Jelusalema alubo bakakusika ku Bbetipegi, kukalundu ka Olivusi, mpawo Jesu wakatuma basikwiya bakwe bobile,
2 saying to them, “Go on into the village in front of you, and immediately you will find a donkey bound, and a colt with her—having loosed, you bring to Me;
wakati kuli mbao, “Kamuya kumunzi ulikunembo, alimwi muyofwambana kubona donki lyangidwe nkuko, alubo akana kelyo. Mwawangunune mwalete kulindime.
3 and if anyone may say anything to you, you will say that the LORD has need of them, and immediately He will send them.”
Kuti kwaba utabe achakwamba atala angawo, mukambe kuti, 'Mwami ulayanda,'alimwi oyo muntu uyofwambana kumupa ngawo.
4 And all this came to pass, that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through the prophet, saying,
'Lino kwakaba kuti ezyo zyakali zyambwa kwinda kumusinsimi zizuzikizigwe. Wakati,
5 “Tell the daughter of Zion, Behold, your King comes to you, meek, and mounted on a donkey, and a colt, a foal of a beast of burden.”
“Ambila mwana musimbi we Zioni, 'Langa, Mwami wanu ulaza kulindinywe, Ulibombede alimwi ulitantide a donki, Akukana ka donki, mwana we donki.”
6 And the disciples having gone and having done as Jesus commanded them,
Mpawo basikwiya bakinka bakuchita mbunya Jesu mbwakabalayililide.
7 brought the donkey and the colt, and put on them their garments, and set [Him] on them;
Bakakuleta donki akana alubo bakabika zikobela zyabo a donki, alimwi Jesu Jesu wakakkala ajulu azikobela.
8 and the very great multitude spread their own garments in the way, and others were cutting branches from the trees, and were strewing in the way,
Makamumakamu manji akayala zikobela zyabo mumugwagwa, alimwi bamwi bakagonka ntabi zyamisamu akuyobuyala mumugwagwa.
9 and the multitudes who were going before, and who were following, were crying, saying, “Hosanna to the Son of David, blessed is He who is coming in the Name of the LORD; Hosanna in the highest!”
Mpawo makamu akenda kunembo lya Jesu alubo abaabo bakali kuyobutobela kabayobompolola, “Hosana kumwana wa Davida!” Ulongezezegwe ngoyo uuza muzina lya Mwami! Hosana kuli simajulu!”
10 And He having entered into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, “Who is this?”
Elyo Jesu nakasika ku Jelusalema, idolopo lyoonse lyakali lyanyonganisigwa akwamba kuti, “Ngwani oyu?”
11 And the multitudes said, “This is Jesus the prophet, who [is] from Nazareth of Galilee.”
Makamumakamu akasandula, “Oyu ngu Jesu musinsimi uzwa waku Nazaleta mu Galili.”
12 And Jesus entered into the temple of God, and cast forth all those selling and buying in the temple, and the tables of the money-changers He overturned, and the seats of those selling the doves,
Mpwo Jesu wakanjila mungánda ya Leza. Wakaandilanze boonse abo bakali kuula akuuzya mungánda ya Leza, alubo wakasandamuna matafula abasikuzizya mali alubo azikkalo zyababo bakali kuzya nziba.
13 and He says to them, “It has been written: My house will be called a house of prayer; but you made it a den of robbers.”
Wakati kulimbabo, “Kulilembedwe, 'Ngánda yangu iyowambwa kuti ngánda yakukambya; pesi mwayichita kuti ibe chikkalilo chababb.”
14 And there came to Him blind and lame men in the temple, and He healed them,
Mpawo mofu achilima bakeza kulinguwe mungánda ya Leza, alubo wakabaponya.
15 and the chief priests and the scribes having seen the wonderful things that He did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, “Hosanna to the Son of David,” were much displeased;
Pesi elyo bapayiza bapati alubo abalembi bamulawu nibakabona zintu nzyakachita, alubo elyo nibakamvwa bana balompolola mungánda yaLeza alubo balamba, “Hosana kumwana a Davida, “bakaba akunyema kupati.
16 and they said to Him, “Do You hear what these say?” And Jesus says to them, “Yes, did you never read, that, Out of the mouth of babies and sucklings You prepared praise?”
Bakati kulinguwe, “Ulibamvwide na kuti balikutyeni Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Iyii! Pesi takwe nimwakabalide, 'kuzwa kumilomo yabana banini atunyonka wakabamba intembawuzyo'?”
17 And having left them, He went forth out of the city to Bethany, and lodged there,
Mpawo Jesu wakabasiya alubo akuzwa mudolopo lya Bbetani akumana busiku nkuko.
18 and in the morning turning back to the city, He hungered,
Lino kuseni wakayinka nakali kujokela kudolopo, wakali waba anzala.
19 and having seen a certain fig tree on the way, He came to it, and found nothing in it except leaves only, and He says to it, “No more fruit may be from you—throughout the age”; and instantly the fig tree withered. (aiōn g165)
Nakabona mukuyu munsi lyamugwagwa, wakayinka kulinguwo akujana kakutakwe chintu kuli nguwo kunze kwamatu. Wakaamba kuti kulinguwo, “Kutakabi kuti kukabe michelo lubo kuzwa kulinduwe alimbi,” alubo mponya awo mukuyu wakapusama. (aiōn g165)
20 And the disciples having seen, wondered, saying, “How did the fig tree instantly wither?”
Elyo basikwiya nibakawubona, bakagamba akwamba bati, “Ibiyeni mukuyu wapusama mpawonyaawa?”
21 And Jesus answering said to them, “Truly I say to you, if you may have faith, and may not doubt, not only this of the fig tree will you do, but even if to this mountain you may say, Be lifted up and be cast into the sea, it will come to pass;
Jesu wakasandula akwamba kulimbabo, “Masimpe ndamba kulindinywe, na mulijisi lusyomo alubo kamutadoneki, tamukwe nimuyochita zyakachitwa amukuyu biyo pe, pesi muyowamba nikuba kuchilundu echi, 'Zyukuka akuwalwa mulwizi; alubo ziyochitika.
22 and all—as much as you may ask in the prayer, believing, you will receive.”
Kufumbwa nchimuyolomba munkombyo, chakuzumina, muyozitambula.”
23 And He having come into the temple, there came to Him when teaching the chief priests and the elders of the people, saying, “By what authority do You do these things? And who gave You this authority?”
Elyo Jesu nakasika mungánda yaLeza. Bapayizi bapati antomwe abapati babantu bakasika kulinguwe kali mukuyisya basikuti, “Anguzu nzi nzyochitya zintu ezi, alubo ngwani wakakupa nguzu ezi?”
24 And Jesus answering said to them, “I will ask you—I also—one word, which if you may tell Me, I also will tell you by what authority I do these things;
Jesu wakasandula akwamba kulimbabo, “Ambebo ndilamubuzya mubuzyo umwi. Na mwandambila, ndiyomwambila kuti nkunguzunzi nzindichitya ezi.
25 the immersion of John, from where was it? From Heaven, or from men?” And they were reasoning with themselves, saying, “If we should say, From Heaven, He will say to us, Why, then, did you not believe him?
Lubbabbatizyo lwaJoni - nkukuli nkulwakazwa? Lwakazwa kujulu na kuti nkubantu?” Bakambuzyania akati kabo, bakati,
26 And if we should say, From men, we fear the multitude, for all hold John as a prophet.”
“Na tutedi, Luzwa kujulu,' Ulamba kuti kulindiswe, 'Nkambonzi mpo nimwakatamusyoma?'Pesi na tutedi nkubantu,'tuyowa nkamu yabantu nkambo boonse babona Joni mbuli musinsimi.”
27 And answering Jesus they said, “We have not known.” He said to them—He also, “Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
Mpawo bakasandula Jesu alubo bati, “Tatuzi pe.” Wakamba alimwi kulimbabo, “Nsikwe nensikamwambile ambebo kuti ninguzunzi nzindichitya azyozintu ezi.
28 And what do you think? A man had two children, and having come to the first, he said, Child, go, today be working in my vineyard.
Pesi muyeyaanzi mwalumi wakali abana balombe babili. Wakaya kumutanzi alubo wakati, “mwanangu, koya ukabeleke sunu mumunda wamasansa.
29 And he answering said, I will not, but at last, having regretted, he went.
“Mwana wakasandula wati, “Tandiinki, pesi mukuya kwachiindi wakasandula mizezo yakwe wakinka.
30 And having come to the second, he said in the same manner, and he answering said, I [go], lord, and did not go;
Mpawo mwalumi wakaya kumwana wachibili akwamba chintu chikozyenie. Wakasandula wati, 'Ndilayinka, 'Ta; pesi takwe nakinka pe.
31 which of the two did the will of the father?” They say to Him, “The first.” Jesus says to them, “Truly I say to you that the tax collectors and the prostitutes go before you into the Kingdom of God,
Nguuli mubana babili aba wakachita kuyanda kwawisi?” Bakati, “Mutanzi.” Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Masimpe ndaamba kulindinywe, basimutelo abasimamambe bayonjila mubwami bwa Leza kamutana kunjila.
32 for John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, and the tax collectors and the prostitutes believed him, and you, having seen, did not regret at last—to believe him.
Nkambo Joni wakeza kulindinywe minzila yabululami, pesitemwakamusyoma pe. Pesi basimutelo abasimamambe bakamusyoma. Pesi nywebo, nikuba elyo mwakazibona ezi, temwakeempwa mukuya kwachindi alubo temwakamusyoma.
33 Hear another allegory: There was a certain man, a householder, who planted a vineyard, and put a hedge around it, and dug in it a winepress, and built a tower, and gave it out to farmers, and went abroad.
“Amuswilile kuli ambi mambilambali. Kwakali umwi mwalumi, mukamwini munda wakabyala masansa, wakayaka lubaya alinguwo; wasikusya chikandilo mukati kawo, wayaka ngánda yamujulu, alubo wakayiboleka kuli basikulima masansa. Mpawo wakaya kulichimwi chisi
34 And when the season of the fruits came near, he sent his servants to the farmers, to receive the fruits of it,
Elyo chiindi chakutebulwa kwamasansa nichakasika, wakatuma bamwi babelesi kuli basikulimina masansa kuti bakabweze michelo yakwe.
35 and the farmers having taken his servants, one they scourged, and one they killed, and one they stoned.
Pesi basikulimina masansa bakabweza babelesi bakwe bawuma umwi, bajaya awumwi, alubo bamutulula mabwe.
36 Again he sent other servants more than the first, and they did to them in the same manner.
Alubo, mwanimunda wakatuma bambi babelesi bayingi kwinda batanzi, pesi basikulimina masansa bakabajata zikozyenie.
37 And at last he sent to them his son, saying, They will respect my son;
Kwiinda awo, mwanimunda wakazotuma mwanakwe kulimbabo, kuti, 'Bayo mulemeka mwanangu.
38 and the farmers having seen the son, said among themselves, This is the heir, come, we may kill him, and may possess his inheritance;
“Pesi elyo balimi bamasansa nibakabona mwana, bakati akati kabo, 'Ngoyu sikukona. Mubole, muleke tumujaye akubweza lukono.
39 and having taken him, they cast [him] out of the vineyard, and killed him;
'Nkinkako bakamubweza, bamusowela kunze amuunda akumujaya.
40 whenever therefore the lord of the vineyard may come, what will he do to these farmers?”
Lino elyo mwanimunda asika, ninzi nchayochita abo balimi bamasansa?”
41 They say to Him, “Evil men—he will grievously destroy them, and will give out the vineyard to other farmers who will give back to him the fruits in their seasons.”
Bakati kulinguwe, “Uyonyonyona abo baalumi babuyo muli imwi nzila njumu, alubo uyobatandila aanze amuunda akubika bambi basikulimina masansa, bantu bayomupa chabilo chazilimwa kuchiindi chakuyebula.”
42 Jesus says to them, “Did you never read in the Writings: A stone that the builders disallowed, it became head of a corner; from the LORD has this come to pass, and it is wonderful in our eyes?
Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Sena temwakabala mumalembe, Íbbwe bayaki ndibakakaka lyakachitwa munsemo. Echi chakazwa ku Mwami, alubo zilagambya mumeso esu'?
43 Because of this I say to you that the Kingdom of God will be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth its fruit;
Nkinkako ndamba kuti kulindinywe, bwami bwa Leza buyobwezwa kuzwa kulindinywe akuyopegwa kuchisi chiyopanga michelo yacho.
44 and he who is falling on this stone will be broken, and on whomsoever it may fall it will crush him to pieces.”
Kufumbwa uwida atala abbwe eli ulakutyoka kuba tumpanzi, pesi umwi ngulitawide atala ulakupwasuka.”
45 And the chief priests and the Pharisees having heard His allegories, knew that He speaks of them,
Elyo bapayizi bapati aba Falisi nibakamvwa mambilambali akwe, bakamvwisisisya kuti wakalikwamba ataala ambabo.
46 and seeking to lay hold on Him, they feared the multitudes, seeing they were holding Him as a prophet.
Bakayandula kumwanga, pesi bakayoowa makamu abantu, nkambo bantu bakali mujisi mbuli musinsiimi.
