Matthew 6
1 "Be careful that you do not do your righteousness before people, to be seen by them, or else you have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.
Mu mamele kuti kanji mu citi inkezo zo vulotu vwenu havusu vwa vantu kuti mu voniwe ku vali, heva njovulyo kete mu wane mupuzo kwe shenu wina kwi wulu.
2 Therefore when you practice charitable giving, do not sound a trumpet before yourself, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may get glory from people. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward.
Cwale ha muha intuso, kanji mu lizi mpeta ha vusu vwenu mu va citila ba lihele muma sinagoge ni makululu, kuti va lumbiwe ku vantu. Ca buniti ni mi wambila, ci vava tambuli mupuzo wavo.
3 But when you practice charitable giving, do not let your left hand know what your right hand does,
Kono ho ha intuso, kanji u zuminini iyanza lwako lya cimonso kwi ziva cili panga iyanza lyako lya cilyo,
4 so that your charitable giving may be in secret, then your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
njikuti i intuso yako yoha i hewe vulipatite. Cwale Iso yo vona zi patitwe mwa ku vozekeze.
5 "And when you pray, you are not to be as the hypocrites, for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I tell you, they have received their reward.
Mi hamu lapera, kanji mu swani uvu va lihele, va saka kuzimana ni ku lapera mu masinagoge ni mu ma cailo a migwagwa, kuti va voniwe vantu. Luli ni mi wambila niti; ci va va tambili mipuzo yabo.
6 But you, when you pray, enter into your inner chamber, and having shut your door, pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
Kono iwe, co lapera, wi njile mu malivela, imi ci we yala ciyazo, u lapere kweso wina ku mbali; imi Iso yo vona ku mbali, mwa ku vozekeze.
7 And in praying, do not use vain repetitions, as the unbelievers do; for they think that they will be heard for their much speaking.
Ci mu lapera, kanji mu boleli boleli zi sena intuso uvu mu ba citila va sa zumini; va nahana kuti va wola ku zuwiwa caku wamba wamba ahulu kwabo.
8 Therefore do not be like them, for your Father knows what things you need, before you ask him.
Hakuva vulyo, kanji mu swani na vo; kakuli Ishenu wizi zi mu vulite, ni mu seni ku mu kumbila.
9 Therefore, you should pray this way: 'Our Father in heaven, holy be your name.
Ci kwina vulyo mu lapele vuti, 'Ishetu wina mwi wulu' ku lumbiwe izina lyako. vu simwine vwako vwize.
10 Let your kingdom come. Let your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
Ci sakiwa kwako ci tendahale hansi mu ci nani mwi wulu.
11 Give us today our daily bread.
Tuhe sunu zilyo ze zuva ni zuva.
12 And forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors.
U kwatile milandu yetu, uvu naswe mu tu ba kwatili va vatu fosezi.
13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.'
Hape kanji utu twali mu muliko, kono utu lukulule ku muntu muvi.
14 "For if you forgive people their wrongdoing, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
Mi ho kwatila vantu zi va ku fosekeza, ni Iso mwi wulu naye mwaku kwatile.
15 But if you do not forgive people, neither will your Father forgive your wrongdoing.
Kono ho sa kwatili vamwi zi vaku fosekeza, niheli Iso kete na kukwatile zo mu fosekeza.
16 "Moreover when you fast, do not be like the hypocrites, with sad faces. For they disfigure their faces, that they may be seen by people to be fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward.
Imi, hape ho li nyima zilyo, kanji u linyanisi cifateho cako, ubu mu vacitila va lihele, va linyanisa zifateho njikuti va voneke ku vantu kuti vena ha ku linyima zilyo. Faa ni ku rwira, ci va va tambuli mipuzo yavo.
17 But you, when you fast, anoint your head, and wash your face;
Kono iwe ho lilinyima zilyo, uli singe mafuta ku mutwi ni ku samba ku cifateho caku.
18 so that you are not seen by people to be fasting, but by your Father who is in secret, and your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you.
Nji kuti kanji u vonahali ku vantu kuti wina ha kuli nyima zilyo, kono konji kweso wina kumbali. Mi iso yo vona kumbali, mwaku vozekeze.
19 "Do not store up treasures for yourselves on the earth, where moth and decay destroy, and where thieves break through and steal;
Kanji uli kunganyizi cifumu ca hansi, hena mafele ni mafumi a wola kuci lya, ni hena vasa va wola kutulula mwateni ni ku iva.
20 but store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor decay destroy, and where thieves do not break through and steal;
Kono, u likunganyize cifumu umwine kwi wulu ku sena mafele ni mafumi alya hateni, hasena ni vasa va wola ku tulula ni ku iva.
21 for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Kakuli hena cifumu cako nji hena inkulo yako.
22 "The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is sound, your whole body will be full of light.
Linso nji lambi lya muvili. Cikwina vulyo, heva linso lyako li vona hande, muvili wako onse mu uve mwiseli.
23 But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is the darkness.
Heva linso lyako li towele, ni muvili wako wonse wina mucinzime. Cikwina vulyo, heva iseli lina kwako lina luli mucinzime, cikando vule ico cinzime!
24 "No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other; or else he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Mammon.
Kakwina muntu yete na tendele vasimwine vovele, hesi ka toye yenke ni ku saka zumwi, kamba mwa kuteke yenke ni ku shwaula zumwi. Koti co wola ku tendela Ireza ni cifumu.
25 Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?
Ci kwina vulyo ni ku wambila, kanji u vilaeli ni za vuhalo vwako, cete ulye ni cete uñwe, kambe kaza mubili wako, cete u zwate. njikuti vuhalo kavu hiti zilyo, ni muvili kuhita zizwato?
26 See the birds of the sky, that they do not sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns, and your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of much more value than they?
Mu lole zizuni za mwibyumbyulu. Kazi vyali kazi sinzi kamba ku vika zi kutulwa mu ciduli; kono Ishenu wina kwi wulu uzi lela. Aho inwe kana muva tokwa ahulu ku zi zamba?
27 "And which of you, by being anxious, can add one cubit to his height?
Njeni kwenu yo wola ku vulaela ku ekeza ku vuhalo vwakwe? Cwale cinzi hamu vilela ni za kuzwata?
28 And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They do not toil, neither do they spin,
Mu hupule nanga ziyangayanga za mu mawa, mu zi menena. Kazi tendi, kazi hosi vwanda.
29 yet I tell you that even Solomon in all his glory was not dressed like one of these.
Kono ni mi wambila niti, nanga Salumoni munkanya yakwe kana ava zwati niheva ku likana ni lyoke lyao.
30 But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today exists, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, won't he much more clothe you, you of little faith?
Heva Ireza u zwatika lyani lya mumawa, lihala sunu ni zona lici li sohelwa mwi ziko, ku woleka vule ku zwatika inwe, inwe muve ntumelo inini?
31 "Therefore do not be anxious, saying, 'What will we eat?', 'What will we drink?' or, 'With what will we be clothed?'
Ni ha kwina vulyo kanji mu vileli ni muti, 'Mu tulye nzi?' kamba 'Mutu ñywe nzi?' kamba 'Mutu zwate zizwato nzi?'
32 For the unbelievers seek after all these things, for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.
Vantu vasa zimini nji va saka izi zintu, imi ishenu wa kwiwulu wizi kale zimu saka.
33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
Kono pili musake vusimwine ni ku shiyama kwabo imi zintu zonse ka muzihewe.
34 Therefore do not be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
Cikwina bulyo, kanji mu vileli ni ze zona, mukuti izona li vilela ni zalyo. Izuva limwi ni limwi lilikenwe vuvi vwalyo.
