Matthew 18
1 At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?
muda woo anapunzi bake batiicha kwa Yesu ni kummakiya, “Nyai ywabile nkolo mu'utawala wa kumaunde?”
2 And he called a child to him, and set him in the midst of them,
Yesu kaankema mwana nchunu kammeka nkati yabe,
3 and said, Truly do I say to you, Unless ye are changed, and become as children, ye will not enter the kingdom of heaven.
No baya, “Kweli nenda kuamakiya, mana mukotwike tubu no panga kati mwabana alele muweza kwaa jingya mu utawala wa Nnongo.
4 Whoever therefore shall humble himself as this child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
Kwa eyo woywote ywalowa kuuluya kati mwana mnele, mundu kati ywo nga nkolo mu'utawala wa kumaunde.
5 And whoever receiveth one such child in my name, receiveth me.
Ni mundu ywoywoti ywalowa kumpokya mwana mnele kwa lina lyango anipokya nenga.
6 But whoever shall cause one of these little ones that believe in me to fall away, it were better for him to have a great millstone hung round his neck, and be swallowed up in the depth of the sea.
Lakini ywoywoti ywasababisha jumo kati ya alele aba babaniaminiya asi, yalowa panga bora kwa mundu ywp liwe likolo lyo sangya likatabilwa paingo yake ni, tumbukilwa mu'bahari.
7 Woe to the world because of stumbling-blocks! For it must needs be that stumbling-blocks come; but woe to the man through whom the stumbling-block cometh!
Ole kwa dunia kwasababu kunumiya! kwa mana ntopo namna kwa wakati wo icha, lakini ole kachake kwa mundu yolo wakati woo yaicha kwaajili yake!
8 And if thy hand or thy foot is causing thee to fall, cut it off, and cast it from thee; it is better for thee to enter into life maimed or lame, than having two hands, or two feet, to be cast into the everlasting fire. (aiōnios g166)
Kati luboko lwako lutikusababisha kukwazika, ukate ni utaikwe kutalu ni wenga bora kachako wenga jingya muuzima ubile ntopo luboko au kilema, kuliko taikulikwa mumwoto wa machoba gangunganikwa ubile na maboko goti na magolo goti. (aiōnios g166)
9 And if thine eye is causing thee to fall, pluck it out, and cast it from thee; it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell-fire. (Geenna g1067)
Liyo lyako mana likukoseyite, ulitupwe na ulitaikwe kutalu ni wenga. Bora kachako wenga ujingii mu uzima na liyo limo, kuliko taikuliwa kumwoto wa masoba yangeyomoka ubile ni minyo yoti. (Geenna g1067)
10 Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say to you, that their angels in heaven continually behold the face of my Father who is in heaven.
Linga panga kana mwazarau jumo ywa achene baa kwa mana nenda kuwamakiya panga kumaunde kwii na malaika bembe masoba goti, kaba ulolekeya kuminyo kwa Tate bango ywabile kumaunde.
12 What think ye? if a man have a hundred sheep, and one of them hath gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety-nine upon the mountains, and go and seek that which hath gone astray?
Muwaza namani? Mana itei mundu abi na ngondolo mia jimo yumo aobe, Je! aweza kwaleka tisini na tisa ya kitombe na yenda kwapala yolo yumo ywaobite?
13 And if it happen that he find it, truly do I say to you, he rejoiceth over it more than over the ninety-nine that did not go astray.
Na mana amweni, kweli nenda kuwamakiya, alowa kumpulaikya kutiloo tisini na tisa babakotwike obe.
14 Thus it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.
Nga nyo mapenzi kwaa ga Tate binu ywa kumaunde panga kati ya yumo ywa achene ba baobe.
15 Moreover, if thy brother sin, go and reprove him between thee and him alone. If he listen to thee, thou hast gained thy brother;
Mana nongo wako akukoseite, uyende, ukanobe akusami abile kichake. Mana akuyowine wapanga ukelebwiye nnongo'wo.
16 but if he do not listen, take with thee one or two more; that by the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
Lakini mana akuyowine kwaa, wapotwe alongo benge abele au atatu mana kwa mikano ya ashahidi abele au atatu kila likowe liweza yomoka.
17 And if he disregard them, tell the matter to the church; but if he disregard the church also, let him be to thee as a heathen and a publican.
Na mana asalawile kukupekaniya, ulibakiye li'kanisa likowe lyoo, mana asalawite kae kulipekaniya likanisa, bai na abe kati mundu wa dunia na ywalonga ushuru.
18 Truly do I say to you, Whatever ye shall bind on earth will be bound in heaven; and whatever ye shall loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.
Kweli nenda kuamakiya, chachatabilwa mu'dunia na kumaunde kilabilwe na chochote chachayongoyelwe mu'dunia na kumaunde kiyongolike.
19 Again, I say to you, that if two of you shall agree on earth concerning any thing that they shall ask, it will be done for them by my Father o who is in heaven.
Kae nenda kuamakiya panga bandu kati yinu mana bayeketyaniye kunani ya kikowe lyolyote mu'dunia kabaloba, halyo
20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
Tate bango ba kunani alowa panga. Kwa mwanja abele au atatu mana bakusawike pamope kwa lina lyangi, Ne nibi pakati kati yabe.
21 Then came Peter, and said to him, Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Until seven times?
Na Petro kaisa na kummakiya Yesu, “Ngwana, mara ilenga nongo wango mana anikoseite na nenga nimsami? Hata mara saba?
22 Jesus saith to him, I say not to thee, until seven times, but until seventy times seven.
Yesu kammakiya, “Nikubakiya kwa mara saba, lakini hata sabaini mara saba.
23 Therefore the kingdom of heaven is likened to a king, who would settle accounts with his servants.
Kwa mwanza nyo utawala wa kumaunde ni sawa na tawala pulani ywapalage lekebisha esabu buka kwa atumwa bake.
24 And when he had begun to reckon, there was brought to him one, who owed him ten thousand talents.
Paatumbwi lekebisha esabu, mtumwa yumo batikunnetya kachake na ywembe alonge lwage talanta elfu komi.
25 But as he was unable to pay, his lord ordered him to be sold, and his wife and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.
Mana abile nacho kwaa Cleopata, Ngwana wake alangi apemeyelwe, nyumbowe bana bake na kila kilebe chabile nacho, na alepe.
26 Then that servant fell down and did obeisance to him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.
Nga aywo mmanda ngalabukya, apiyite magoti nnongi yake kabaya, “Ngwana unipumiliye nenga, nalowa kukulepa kila kilebe'.
27 And the lord of that servant, being moved with compassion, released him, and forgave him the debt.
Nga aywo Ngwana wa mmanda ywo, mana abina uruma, atikunneka na kusamwa deni lyo
28 But that servant went out, and found one of his fellow-servants, who owed him a hundred denaries; and he laid hold of him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay what thou owest.
Lakini mmanda ywo atiboka na kumpata mmanda yumo katika amanda benge, ywa nnongage dinari mia. Atikumwuta, na kunkaba pa'ingo, na kumakiya, “Unilepe chanikulenga.'
29 His fellow-servant then fell down and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee.
Lakini yolo mmanda ywenge atikukilikitya ni kunnoba muno, kabaya, “Unipumiliye, nalowa kukulepa.”
30 And he would not; but went away and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt.
Lakini mmanda ywa kwanza atikana. Badala yake ayei kuntaba kuligereza, paka palepa deni lyake.
31 Then his fellow-servants, seeing what was done, were greatly grieved; and went and told their lord all that had been done.
Pababweni amanda wenge chelo chakipangite. Batikasirika muno Batiisa ni kummakiya Ngwana wabe kila kilebe chakipitike.
32 Then his lord, having called him, saith to him, Thou wicked servant! All that debt I forgave thee because thou didst beseech me;
Boka po ngwana wa atmanda yolo ankemite, ni kummakiya,'wenga wa mmanda mmaya, nitikusamya wenga lideni lyako lyoti kwa mwanja wati niloba muno.
33 shouldst not thou also have had pity on thy fellow-servant, even as I had pity on thee?
Ywabile ni wenga ukaba na huruma kwa mmanda nyino kati nenga mwanikuhurumiye wenga?
34 And his lord was enraged, and delivered him to the inflicters of punishment, till he should pay all that was due to him.
Ngwana wake atikasirika muno ni kwapeya askari watesa mpaka apalepa lideni lyake.
35 So also will my heavenly Father do to you, if ye forgive not every one his brother from your hearts.
Eyo nga Tate bango ba kumaunde ngabalowa panga, manaite nkolikwe samyana mwalongo sika kwa mwoyo winu”.
