Matthew 18
1 In that hour the talmidim came to Yeshua, saying, "Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?"
Lukumbi lwenulo vawuliwa vamhambili Yesu, vakamkota, “Yani mweavimvaha Muunkosi wa kunani kwa Chapanga?”
2 He called a little child to himself, and set him in the midst of them,
Yesu amkemili mwana mmonga na akamyimika pagati yavi,
3 and said, "Truly I tell you, unless you turn, and become as little children, you will in no way enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Kangi akajova, “Nikuvajovela chakaka, ngati mwing'anamuka lepi na kuvya ngati vana vadebe, katu nakuyingila muunkosi wa kunani kwa Chapanga.
4 Whoever therefore humbles himself as this little child, the same is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
Mundu yeyoha mweakujihelesa pahi ngati mwana, mwenuyo ndi mvaha munkosi wa kunani kwa Chapanga.
5 Whoever receives one such little child in my name receives me,
Mundu yeyoha mweakumpokela mwana mmonga ngati uyu paliina langu, akunipokela nene.”
6 but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it would be better for him that a huge millstone should be hung around his neck, and that he should be sunk in the depths of the sea.
“Mundu yeyoha mweakumbudisa mmonga pagati ya vadebe vevisadika vabudayi, ngayivii mbanga akungiwa liganga livaha la kuyagila muhingu na kujwigiswa pagati ya nyanja yivaha.
7 "Woe to the world because of stumbling blocks. For there will always be something to cause people to stumble, but woe to the person through whom the stumbling block comes.
Valachikolela vandu va mulima ndava ya kuyokisa vangi vagwai. Mabudisa genago yikugagana gahumila, nambu alachikolela mundu yula mweakugabudisa.”
8 If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life maimed or crippled, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into the everlasting fire. (aiōnios g166)
“Ngati chiwoko chaku amala chigendelu chaku chikubudisa, chidumulai na kutaga kutali, Mbanga veve kuyingila kuwumi changali chiwoko chimonga amala chigendelu chimonga kuliku veve kuyingila kumotu wa magono goha wangajimika kuni uvi na mawoko gavili amala magendelu gavili. (aiōnios g166)
9 If your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the fire of Gehinnom. (Geenna g1067)
Lihu laku lakakubudisa, ulitupula na ulitaga kutali. Mbanga veve kuyingila muwumi wa magono goha gangali mwishu kuni uvi na lihu limonga kuliku kuvya na mihu gavili na kutagwa kumotu wa magono goha wangali mwishu wangajimika kuni uvi na mihu gaku gavili.” (Geenna g1067)
10 See that you do not despise one of these little ones, for I tell you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven.
“Mjiyangalila mkoto kuvavevesa mmonga wa vadebe ava. Nikuvajovela vamitumu vavi kunani kwa Chapanga magono goha vavi palongolo ya Dadi wangu.
Ndava muni Mwana wa Mundu abwelili kusangula chechiyagili.”
12 "What do you think? If someone has one hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine, go to the mountains, and seek that which has gone astray?
“Mwihololela wuli? Ngati mundu avi na mambelele miya yimonga, limbele limonga lakayagai. Wu, nakugaleka mambelele tisini na tisa pachitumbi, kuhamba kulonda limonga lelikayagili?
13 If he finds it, truly I tell you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine which have not gone astray.
Ngati aliwene, nikuvajovela chakaka yati akulihekelela neju lenilo kuliku gala tisini na tisa gangayaga.
14 Even so it is not the will of my Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.
Mewawa, Dadi winu mweavi kunani, nakugana mmonga wa vadebe ava ayaga.”
15 "If your brother sins against you, go, show him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained back your brother.
“Mlongo waku akakuhokela umhambila ukamlangisa cheakuhokili muvi mwavene. Akakuyuwana ndi umpati kavili mlongo waku.
16 But if he does not listen, take one or two more with you, that at the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
Ngati nakukuyuwanila, hamba na mundu yungi mmonga amala vavili muni kwa malovi ga vandu vavili amala vadatu lijambu loloha limaliswa ngati Mayandiku Gamsopi chegijova.
17 If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the congregation. If he refuses to hear the congregation also, let him be to you as an unbeliever or a tax collector.
Ngati akabela kuvayuwana venavo, uwujovela msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu, ngati akuvayuwanila lepi avo, kwa veve ndi avya ngati vandu vangammanya Chapanga na vevitola kodi.”
18 Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.
“Nikujovela chakaka, chemwibesa pamulima, yati chibesewa kunani kwa Chapanga, mewawa chechiyidakiliwa pamulima yati chiyidakiliwa kunani kwa Chapanga.
19 Again, truly I tell you, that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they will ask, it will be done for them by my Father who is in heaven.
Nijova kangi, vavili pagati yinu vakayidakilana pamulima ndava ya lijambu loloha la kumuyupa Chapanga, Dadi wangu wa kunani yati akuvahengela lijambu lenilo.
20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the midst of them."
Ndava muni popoha pamuvi vavili amala vadatu kwa liina langu, nene nivii penapo pagati yavi.”
21 Then Peter came to him and said, "Lord, how often can my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?"
Kangi Petili akamhambila Yesu, akamkota “Bambu, wu, mlongo wangu akanibudilayi, nimulekekesa mala yilinga? Amala mala saba?”
22 Yeshua said to him, "I do not tell you up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven.
Yesu akayangula, “Nijova lepi nga mala saba, nambu sabini mala saba.”
23 Therefore the kingdom of heaven is like a certain king, who wanted to reconcile accounts with his servants.
Ndava yeniyi ndi Unkosi wa kunani kwa Chapanga uwanangana na mkulu mmonga mweaganili kuhenga mvalangu wa madeni na vatumisi vaki.
24 When he had begun to reconcile, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents.
Peatumbwili kuvalanga, vamletili mundu mweadaiwayi mashonga elufu kumi.
25 But because he could not pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, with his wife and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.
Mundu mwenuyo avi lepi na chindu cha kulipa, mkulu waki akahamula, aguliswai ngati mvanda mwene na mdala waki na vana vaki na vindu vyeavili navyu muni valipa lideni.
26 The servant therefore fell down and kneeled before him, saying, 'Lord, have patience with me, and I will repay you all.'
Hinu, mtumisi yula. Akagwa pahi, akafugama, akajova, unilindila nene yati nikukulipa lideni loha!
27 The lord of that servant, being moved with compassion, released him, and forgave him the debt.
Mkulu yula akamhengela lipyana akamlekekesa lideni lila akamleka ahamba.
28 "But that servant went out, and found one of his fellow servants, who owed him one hundred denarii, and he grabbed him, and took him by the throat, saying, 'Pay what you owe.'
“Nambu mundu yula pawukili, akakonganeka na mtumisi muyaki mweamdayayi mashonga gadebe. Akamkamula akamdodoyola hingu, akumjovela ‘Nilipa lideni laku!’
29 "So his fellow servant fell down at his feet and begged him, saying, 'Have patience with me, and I will repay you all.'
Mtumisi muyaki akafugama, akajova, niyupa, ‘Unilindila nene yati nikukulipa lideni laku loha!’
30 He would not, but went and cast him into prison, until he should pay back that which was due.
Nambu mwene angayidakila, ndi akamusopa muchifungu mbaka peilipa lideni lila.
31 So when his fellow servants saw what was done, they were exceedingly sorry, and came and told to their lord all that was done.
Hinu, vatumisi vayaki pavawene lijambu lelahumalili vakaviniswa mtima, vakahamba kumjovela mkulu wavi kulivala lijambu lelahengiki.
32 Then his lord called him in, and said to him, 'You wicked servant. I forgave you all that debt, because you begged me.
Kangi mkulu yula akamkemela mtumisi mwenuyo, akamjovela, ‘Veve ndi mtumisi mhakau neju! Nikulekekisi lideni laku loha pewaniyupili.
33 Should you not also have had mercy on your fellow servant, even as I had mercy on you?'
Wu, yakuganili lepi veve kumlekekesa mtumisi muyaku ngati chenikulekekisi nene?’
34 His lord was angry, and delivered him to the tormentors, until he should pay all that was due.
Hinu mkulu yula akamema ligoga, akamgotola kwa vang'aisa muchifungu mbaka peilipa lideni laki loha.”
35 So my heavenly Father will also do to you, if you do not each forgive your brother his trespasses from your heart."
“Na dadi wangu mweavi kunani yati akuvahengela mewawa ngati kila mmonga winu akumlekekesa lepi mlongo waki kwa mtima waki woha.”
