< Matthew 16 >

1 The Pharisees and Sadducees came, and testing him, asked him to show them a sign from heaven.
VaFarisi neVaSadhusi ndokuuya vachimuidza, vakamukumbira kuti avaratidze chiratidzo chinobva kudenga.
2 But he answered and said to them, "When it is evening, you say, 'It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.'
Asi wakapindura akati kwavari: Kana ava madekwani munoti: Kunze kwakanaka; nokuti denga rakatsvuka.
3 In the morning, 'It will be foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening.' You know how to discern the appearance of the sky, but you cannot discern the signs of the times.
Uye mangwanani munoti: Nhasi kunze kwakaipa; nokuti denga rakatsvuka richikwidibira. Vanyepedzeri, munoziva kuparadzanisa mamiriro edenga, asi hamugoni kuparadzanisa zviratidzo zvenguva here?
4 An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and there will be no sign given to it, except the sign of Jonah." He left them, and departed.
Zera rakaipa uye rinofeva richitsvaka chiratidzo; asi haripiwi chiratidzo, kunze kwechiratidzo chaJona muporofita. Ndokuvasiya, akaenda.
5 The disciples came to the other side and had forgotten to take bread.
Zvino vadzidzi vakati vasvika mhiri, vakakanganwa kutora zvingwa.
6 Jesus said to them, "Watch out and guard yourselves against the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees."
Zvino Jesu akati kwavari: Onai mungwarire mbiriso yeVaFarisi neVaSadhusi.
7 They reasoned among themselves, saying, "We brought no bread."
Vakarangana pakati pavo vachiti: Unodaro nokuti hatina kutora zvingwa.
8 But Jesus, becoming aware of this, said, "You of little faith, why are you discussing among yourselves about having no bread?
Zvino Jesu azviziva akati kwavari: Imwi verutendo rudiki, nemhaka yei muchirangana pakati penyu kuti hamuna kutora zvingwa?
9 Do you still not understand? Do you not remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
Muchigere kunzwisisa here, kana kurangarira zvingwa zvishanu zvevanezvuru zvishanu, uye matengu mangani amakanonga?
10 Nor the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
Kana zvingwa zvinomwe zvevanezvuru zvina, uye matengu mangani amakanonga?
11 Why is it that you do not understand that I did not speak to you concerning bread? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees."
Hamunzwisisi sei, kuti handina kutaura kwamuri pamusoro pezvingwa kuti mungwarire mbiriso yeVaFarisi neVaSadhusi?
12 Then they understood that he did not tell them to beware of the yeast of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Zvino vakanzwisisa kuti haana kutaura kuti vachenjere mbiriso yechingwa, asi dzidziso yeVaFarisi neVaSadhusi.
13 Now when Jesus came into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, "Who do people say that the Son of Man is?"
Jesu wakati asvika kumativi eKesariya yeFiripi, akabvunza vadzidzi vake, achiti: Vanhu vanoti ini Mwanakomana wemunhu ndini ani?
14 They said, "Some say John the Baptist, some, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets."
Ndokubva vati: Vamwe vanoti Johwani Mubhabhatidzi, uye vamwe Eria, vamwewo Jeremiya, kana umwe wevaporofita.
15 He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?"
Akati kwavari: Ko imwi munoti ndini ani?
16 Simon Peter answered, "You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God."
Zvino Simoni Petro akapindura akati: Ndimwi Kristu, Mwanakomana waMwari mupenyu.
17 And Jesus answered him, "Blessed are you, Simon Bar Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.
Jesu akapindura akati kwaari: Wakaropafadzwa, Simoni mwanakomana waJona, nokuti nyama neropa hazvina kukuzarurira izvozvo, asi Baba vangu vari kumatenga.
18 I also tell you that you are Peter, and on this Rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it. (Hadēs g86)
Neni ndinoti kwauri: Ndiwe Petro, uye pamusoro peruware urwu ndichavaka kereke yangu, nemasuwo egehena haangaikundi. (Hadēs g86)
19 I will give to you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven."
Uye ndichapa kwauri kiyi dzeushe hwekumatenga; uye chipi nechipi chauchasunga panyika, chichasungwa kumatenga; nechipi nechipi chauchasunungura panyika, chichasunungurwa kumatenga.
20 Then he commanded the disciples that they should tell no one that he is the Messiah.
Ipapo akarairisa vadzidzi vake kuti varege kuudza munhu kuti ndiye Jesu iye Kristu.
21 From that time, Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.
Kubva panguva iyo Jesu wakatanga kuratidza kuvadzidzi vake kuti anofanira kuenda kuJerusarema, uye kutambudzika zvizhinji zvichibva kuvakuru nevapristi vakuru nevanyori, nekuurawa, nekumutswa nezuva retatu.
22 Peter took him aside, and began to rebuke him, saying, "Far be it from you, Lord. This will never be done to you."
Petro akamutora parutivi, akatanga kumutsiura akati: Ngazvirege kutongoitika kwamuri, Ishe; izvi hazvingatongoitiki kwamuri.
23 But he turned, and said to Peter, "Get behind me, Satan. You are a stumbling block to me, for you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of humans."
Asi iye wakatendeuka akati kuna Petro: Ibva shure kwangu, Satani! Uri chigumbuso kwandiri; nokuti haurangariri zvinhu zvaMwari, asi zvinhu zvevanhu.
24 Then Jesus said to his disciples, "If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
Zvino Jesu akati kuvadzidzi vake: Kana ani nani achida kuuya shure kwangu, ngaazvirambe, atakure muchinjikwa wake, anditevere.
25 For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it.
Nokuti ani nani anoda kuponesa upenyu hwake acharasikirwa nahwo; asi ani nani anorasikirwa neupenyu hwake nekuda kwangu achahuwana.
26 For what will it profit a person, if he gains the whole world, and forfeits his life? Or what will a person give in exchange for his life?
Nokuti munhu anobatsirwei kana akawana nyika yese, akarasikirwa nemweya wake? Kana munhu achapei chive muripo wemweya wake?
27 For the Son of Man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will render to everyone according to his deeds.
Nokuti Mwanakomana wemunhu achauya mukubwinya kwaBaba vake nevatumwa vake, ipapo achapa mubairo umwe neumwe zvichienderana nebasa rake.
28 Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste of death, until they see the Son of Man coming in his Kingdom."
Zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwamuri: Vamwe varipo kune vamire pano, vasingatongoraviri rufu kusvikira vaona Mwanakomana wemunhu achiuya muushe hwake.
