Luke 20
1 It happened on one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the Good News, that the chief priests and scribes came to him with the elders.
Awo Yesu bwe yali ng’ayigiriza era ng’abuulira Enjiri mu luggya lwa Yeekaalu, bakabona abakulu, n’abannyonnyozi b’amateeka n’abakulembeze b’Abayudaaya ne bajja gy’ali.
2 They asked him, "Tell us: by what authority do you do these things? Or who is giving you this authority?"
Ne bamubuuza nti, “Tubuulire, buyinza ki obukukozesa bino? Era ani eyakuwa obuyinza obwo?”
3 He answered them, "I also will ask you one question. Tell me:
Yesu n’addamu nti, “Nange ka mbabuuze ekibuuzo kino.
4 the baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from man?"
Okubatiza kwa Yokaana kwava eri Katonda nandiki kwava mu bantu?”
5 They reasoned with themselves, saying, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say, 'Why did you not believe him?'
Ne basooka okwogeraganyaamu bokka ne bokka nga bagamba nti, “Bwe tunaagamba nti, ‘Kwava mu ggulu,’ ajja kutubuuza nti, ‘Kale, lwaki temwamukkiriza?’
6 But if we say, 'From man,' all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet."
Naye ate bwe tunaddamu nti, ‘Kwava mu bantu,’ abantu bonna bajja kutukuba amayinja, kubanga bamatizibwa nti Yokaana yali nnabbi.”
7 They answered that they did not know where it was from.
Kyebaava baddamu nti, “Tetumanyi gye kwava.”
8 Jesus said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things."
Yesu n’abagamba nti, “Nange sijja kubabuulira gye nzigya obuyinza obunkozesa bino.”
9 He began to tell the people this parable. "A man planted a vineyard, and rented it out to some farmers, and went on a journey for a long time.
Awo Yesu n’akyukira abantu n’abagerera olugero luno nti, “Waaliwo omusajja eyalina ennimiro ey’emizabbibu, n’agipangisa abalimi, n’agenda olugendo, n’amalayo ebbanga ddene.
10 At the proper season, he sent a servant to the farmers to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the farmers beat him, and sent him away empty.
Awo ekiseera eky’amakungula bwe kyatuuka, n’atuma omu ku baddu be eri abalimi bamuwe ku bibala eby’emizabbibu gye. Naye abalimi abapangisa ne bamukuba ne bamugoba n’addayo ngalo nsa eri mukama we.
11 He sent yet another servant, and they also beat him, and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
N’abatumira omuddu we omulala, n’oyo ne bamukuba ne bamuswaza nnyo, n’addayo ngalo nsa.
12 He sent yet a third, and they also wounded him, and threw him out.
N’abatumira omuddu owookusatu, naye ne bamukuba ne bamussaako n’ebiwundu ne bamugoba mu nnimiro.
13 The lord of the vineyard said, 'What am I to do? I will send my beloved son. It may be that they will respect him.'
“Nannyini nnimiro ne yeebuuza nti, ‘Nkole ntya? Ka mbatumire omwana wange gwe njagala ennyo, oboolyawo banaamussaamu ekitiibwa.’
14 "But when the farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, 'This is the heir. Let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.'
“Omwana oyo bwe baamulengera ne bateesa nti, ‘Ono y’agenda okusikira ennimiro eno nga kitaawe afudde. Ka tumutte, ebyobusika tubyesigalize.’
15 They threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
Ne bamuggya mu nnimiro nga bamukulula ne bamutta. “Mulowooza nannyini nnimiro abalimi abo alibakola atya?
16 He will come and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others." When they heard it, they said, "May it never be."
Agenda kujja abazikirize bonna, n’ennimiro agiwe abalala.” Awo bwe baabiwulira ebyo ne bagamba nti, “Ekintu ng’ekyo kireme kubaawo!”
17 But he looked at them, and said, "Then what is this that is written, 'The stone which the builders rejected, the same was made the chief cornerstone?'
Yesu n’abatunuulira n’abagamba nti, “Kale ekyawandiikibwa kino kitegeeza ki? Ekigamba nti, “‘Ejjinja abazimbi lye baagaana, lye lifuuse ejjinja ekkulu ery’oku nsonda.’
18 Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces; but on whomever it falls, it will crush him."
Omuntu yenna agwa ku jjinja eryo alibetentebwa, na buli gwe lirigwako lirimubetenta.”
19 The chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him that very hour, but they feared the people—for they knew he had spoken this parable against them.
Awo abannyonnyozi b’amateeka ne bakabona abakulu bwe baawulira ebigambo ebyo, ne baagala bamukwatirewo mangwago, kubanga baamanya ng’olugero lwali lukwata ku bo. Naye ne batya abantu.
20 They watched him, and sent out spies, who pretended to be righteous, that they might trap him in something he said, so as to deliver him up to the power and authority of the governor.
Ne balinda okutuusa lwe banaafuna akaagaanya babeeko kye bakola. Ne batuma abakessi eri Yesu nga beefudde ng’abantu abalungi abaagala okumanya. Baasuubira nti mu ebyo by’anaddamu, nga bamubuuzizza ebibuuzo ebirimu emitego, munaabaamu kwe banaasinziira okumukwata ne bamuwaayo ewa gavana.
21 They asked him, "Teacher, we know that you say and teach what is right, and are not partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God.
Abakessi ne babuuza Yesu nti, “Omuyigiriza, tumanyi nga By’oyogera n’ebyo by’oyigiriza bya mazima, era nga tofaayo ku bigambo eby’abantu obuntu wabula oyigiriza ebyo Katonda by’ayagala.
22 Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?"
Kyetuva tukubuuza nti kituufu okuwa Kayisaali omusolo oba si kituufu?”
23 But he perceived their craftiness, and said to them,
Yesu n’ategeera mangu obukuusa bwabwe, n’abagamba nti,
24 "Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?" They answered, "Caesar's."
“Mundage ensimbi eya ffeeza. Ekifaananyi kino ekiriko ky’ani? N’erinnya lino ly’ani?” Ne baddamu nti, “Bya Kayisaali.”
25 He said to them, "Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's."
N’abagamba nti, “Kale ebya Kayisaali mubiwenga Kayisaali, n’ebya Katonda mubiwenga Katonda.”
26 They weren't able to trap him in his words before the people. And amazed at his answer, they fell silent.
Ne balemwa okumukwasa mu ebyo bye yaddamu ng’abantu bonna bali awo. Bye yaddamu ne bibeewuunyisa nnyo, ne basirika busirisi.
27 Some of the Sadducees came to him, those who deny that there is a resurrection.
Awo abamu ku Basaddukaayo abatakkiririza mu kuzuukira, ne bajja eri Yesu, ne bamubuuza nti,
28 They asked him, "Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man's brother dies having a wife, and he is childless, his brother should take the wife, and raise up children for his brother.
“Omuyigiriza, amateeka ga Musa gagamba nti ssinga omusajja omufumbo afa nga tazadde baana, muganda we awasenga nnamwandu alyoke afunire muganda we omufu ezzadde.
29 There were therefore seven brothers. The first took a wife, and died childless.
Waaliwo abooluganda musanvu, asinga obukulu n’awasa, kyokka n’afa nga talese mwana.
30 The second and
Adda ku mufu n’awasa nnamwandu; kyokka naye n’afa nga tazadde mwana.
31 the third took her, and likewise the seven all left no children, and died.
Okutuusa abooluganda bonna lwe baafa ne baggwaawo nga buli omu awasizza ku nnamwandu oyo, kyokka nga tewali alese mwana.
32 Afterward the woman also died.
Oluvannyuma n’omukazi naye n’afa.
33 Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them will she be? For the seven had her as a wife."
Kale mu kuzuukira omukazi oyo aliba muka ani? Kubanga abooluganda bonna omusanvu yabafumbirwako!”
Yesu n’addamu nti, “Obufumbo buli kuno ku nsi, abantu kwe bawasiza era ne bafumbirwa. (aiōn g165)
35 But those who are regarded as worthy of a place in that age and the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given to someone to marry. (aiōn g165)
Naye abo abasaanyizibwa okuzuukira mu bafu bwe batuuka mu ggulu tebawasa wadde okufumbirwa, (aiōn g165)
36 For they cannot die any more, for they are like the angels, and are children of God, being children of the resurrection.
era tebaddayo kufa nate, kubanga baba nga bamalayika. Era baba baana ba Katonda kubanga baba bazuukizibbwa mu bulamu obuggya,
37 But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the bush, when he called the Lord 'The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.'
Naye nti abafu bazuukizibwa, ne Musa yannyonnyola bye yalaba ku kisaka, bwe yayita Mukama Katonda wa Ibulayimu, Katonda wa Isaaka, era Katonda wa Yakobo.
38 Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for all are alive to him."
Kino kitegeeza nti ssi Katonda wa bafu wabula Katonda wa balamu, kubanga bonna balamu gy’ali.”
39 Some of the scribes answered, "Teacher, you speak well."
Abamu ku bannyonnyozi b’amateeka ne bagamba nti, “Omuyigiriza, ozzeemu bulungi!”
40 They did not dare to ask him any more questions.
Ne watabaawo ayaŋŋanga kwongera kumubuuza bibuuzo birala.
41 He said to them, "Why do they say that the Christ is David's son?
Awo Yesu n’ababuuza nti, “Lwaki Kristo ayitibwa Omwana wa Dawudi?
42 David himself says in the scroll of Psalms, 'The Lord said to my Lord, "Sit at my right hand,
Songa Dawudi amwogerako mu Zabbuli nti, “‘Katonda yagamba Mukama wange nti, Tuula ku mukono gwange ogwa ddyo
43 until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet."'
okutuusa lwe ndifuula abalabe bo entebe y’ebigere byo.’
44 "David therefore calls him Lord, so how is he his son?"
Noolwekyo obanga Dawudi amuyita Mukama we, kale ayinza atya okuba omwana we?”
45 In the hearing of all the people, he said to his disciples,
Awo abantu bonna nga bawulira, Yesu n’akyukira abayigirizwa be n’abagamba nti,
46 "Beware of the scribes, who like to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the marketplaces, the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts;
“Mwekuume abannyonnyozi b’amateeka. Baagala nnyo okutambula nga bambadde amaganduula agagenda gakweya, n’abantu okugenda nga babalamusa mu butale, era baagala nnyo okutuula mu bifo eby’ekitiibwa mu makuŋŋaaniro ne ku mbaga!
47 who devour widows' houses, and for a pretense make long prayers: these will receive greater condemnation."
Balimbalimba nga basaba essaala empanvu, ng’eno bwe basala enkwe okunyaga ebintu bya bannamwandu. Noolwekyo bagenda kufuna ekibonerezo ekisingira ddala obunene.”
