Matthew 9
1 And going on board a boat, he crossed over, and came to his own city.
A Yeshu gubhakwelile muntumbwi, gubhajombweshe litanda gubhaishe kushilambo shabho.
2 And lo! they brought to him a man that was palsied, lying on a bed. And Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the palsied man, Be of good cheer, son; thy sins are forgiven.
Kweneko bhandu gubhaapeleshelenje mundu jumo apolweshe, agonile pa shinanda. A Yeshu bhakajibhoneje ngulupai jabhonji, gubhammalanjile mundu apolweshe jula, “Ambwiga! Mwiilume ntima, yambi yenu nneshelelwe.”
3 And lo! some of the scribes said within themselves, This man is blaspheming.
Bhaajiganya bha Shalia bhananji gubhaganishiyenje mmitima jabhonji kuti, “Bhene bhandubha bhanakwaakupulu a Nnungu!”
4 And Jesus seeing their thoughts, said, Wherefore have ye evil thoughts in your hearts?
A Yeshu gubhaimanyi ng'aniyo yabhonji, gubhashite, “Pakuti nnaganishiyanga ya nyata mmitima jenunji?
5 For which is easier? to say, Thy sins are forgiven? or to say, Arise, and walk?
Shei shipepeshe, kubheleketa, ‘Uleshelelwe yambi yako,’ eu kubheleketa, ‘Jinuka ujende?’
6 But that ye may know that the Son of Man hath authority on earth to forgive sins, —then he saith to the palsied man, —Arise, take up thy bed, and go to thy house.
Ikabheje, mmumanyanje kuti Mwana juka Mundu ashikola ukulungwa pa shilambolyo gwa kwaaleshelelanga bhandu yambi yabhonji.” Penepo gubhammalanjile mundu apolweshe jula, “Jinuka utole shinanda shako ujende kunngwako.”
7 And he arose, and went away to his house.
Bhai mundu apolweshe jula gwajimi, gwapite kunngwakwe.
8 And when the multitudes saw it, they were struck with fear, and gave glory to God, who had given such power to men.
Bhandu bhowe palugwinjili pala bhakaibhonanjeje yeneyo, gubhalapilenje na jogopa gubhaakushiyenje a Nnungu bhaapelenje bhandu gwene ukulungwago.
9 And as Jesus passed on from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the custom-house; and he saith to him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him.
Na a Yeshu bhakajabhuleje penepo, gubhaabhweni bhandu bhamo lina lyabho a Matei, bhatemi nnyumba ja bhakamula koli. Bhai, a Yeshu gubhaabhalanjile, “Nngagule.” Nabhalabho a Matei gubhajimi, gubhaakagwile.
10 And it came to pass, as he was reclining at table in the house, lo! many publicans and sinners came and reclined with Jesus and his disciples.
A Yeshu bhakatameje kumui kwa a Matei nkulya shalya, bhakamula koli bhabhagwinji na bhakwetenje yambi bhananji, gubhaikengenenje nitamanabhonji nkulya pamo na bhaajiganywa bhabho.
11 And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, Why doth your teacher eat with the publicans and sinners?
Ashimapalishayo bhakabhonanjeje nneyo, gubhabhalanjilenje bhaajiganywa bhabho, “Pakuti bhaajiganya bhenunji bhanalya shalya na bhakamula koli na bhakwetenje yambi?”
12 But when he heard that, he said, They who are well do not need a physician, but they who are sick.
A Yeshu bhakapilikaneje, gubhaabhalanjilenje, “Bhakotonji bhakakunnoleyanga mmitela, ikabheje bhakunnoleyanga mmitela bhalwelenji.
13 But go ye and learn what this meaneth: “I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.” For I came not to call righteous men, but sinners.
Bhai, nnjendangane nkaijiganyanje malombolelo ga gene malobhe gano, ‘Shingupinga shiya, nngabha mbepei.’ Nangaika kwaashemanga bhakwetenje aki, ikabheje bhakwetenje yambi.”
14 Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast, and thy disciples fast not?
Kungai bhaajiganywa bha a Yowana Bhabhatisha gubhaajendelenje a Yeshu, gubhaabhushiyenje, “Uwe na Mapalishayo tunatabha. Pakuti bhaajiganywa bhenu bhakaatabhanga?”
15 And Jesus said to them, Can the companions of the bridegroom mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come, when the bridegroom will be taken from them, and then will they fast.
A Yeshu gubhaajangwilenje, “Bhuli, bhashemilwenje kundowa bhalipinjikwanga kwigutanjila bhalinginji naka nnyene nkulomba? Ikabheje shigaishile mobha nkulomba shashoywe, penepo shibhatabhanje.
16 No one putteth a patch of undressed cloth on an old garment; for the piece that filleth in teareth away from the garment, and a worse rent is made.
“Jwakwa mundu atotela shibhamba sha ambi munngubho ja bhukala, pabha shibhambasho shishikwinyale nipunda pwengula nngubhojo.
17 Nor do men put new wine into old skins; else the skins burst, and the wine runneth out, and the skins are spoilt. But they put new wine into new skins, and both are preserved together.
Wala bhandu bhakaataganga divai ja ambi mmipatila ja bhukala. Bhatendangaga nneyo, divaijo shijikwebhe nipapula mipatilajo na divai nijitika, ikabheje bhandu bhanataganga divai ja ambi mmipatila ja ambi, na yowe shiilonjeye ukoto.”
18 While he was thus speaking to them, lo! a certain ruler came in and bowed down before him, saying, My daughter just now died; but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she will live.
A Yeshu bhalinkubheleketa genego, a kalongolele bha Shiyaudi gubhaishe, nitindibhala bhalinkuti, “Mwali jwangu ashiwa nnainope, shonde ngunakunnjuga tulongane nkammishile nkono gwenu shalame.”
19 And Jesus arose and followed him, with his disciples.
A Yeshu gubhajabhwile nikwaakagula pamo na bhaajiganywa bhabho.
20 And, lo! a woman, who had had an issue of blood for twelve years, came up behind, and touched the fringe of his garment.
Bhakongwe bhamo bhalwalaga shilwele sha nsholosholo yaka likumi limo na ibhili, gubhaakagwile a Yeshu shilinyuma, gubhakwashiye libhiniko lya nngubho jabho.
21 For she said within herself, If I only touch his garment, I shall be made well.
Bhashinkutenda nneyo pabha bhashinkwiibhalanjila bhayene, “Ngwayape nngubho jabho shiname.”
22 And he turned round, and seeing her, said, Be of good cheer, daughter; thy faith hath made thee well. And the woman was made well from that hour.
Bhai, a Yeshu gubhatendebhwishe nigubhaabhweni, gubhaabhalanjile, “Mwanangu, unakole lipamba! Ngulupai jako jikulamiye.” Bhakongwe bhala gubhalamile shilwele shabho shila malanga gala.
23 And Jesus coming into the ruler's house, and seeing the minstrels, and the crowd making a noise,
A Yeshu bhakaisheje ku nyumba ja bhakulungwa bhala gubhaabhweninji bhaagombanga imbeta na bhandunji bhabhagwinji bhalinginji nshililo,
24 said, Withdraw; for the girl is not dead, but is sleeping. And they laughed him to scorn.
gubhaabhalanjilenje, “Nshokangane! Mwaliju jwanngawa, ikabheje ashigonape.” Nigubhaeshilenje kwa kaje.
25 But when the crowd had been put out, he went in, and took hold of her hand; and the girl arose.
Bhai, bhandunji bhala bhakashokangananjeje, a Yeshu gubhajinjile nkati, gubhankamwile nkono, mwali jula gwajimi nnyene.
26 And the report of this went abroad into all that country.
Jene nganijo gujishumile nshilambo showe.
27 And as Jesus passed on from thence, two blind men followed him, crying out and saying, Have pity on us, Son of David!
A Yeshu bhakajabhuleje penepo, ashinangalole bhabhili gubhaakagwilenje bhalijobhelanga, bhalinkutinji, “Mmaulongo gwa a Daudi, ntubhonele shiya.”
28 And when he had come into the house, the blind men came to him; and Jesus saith to them, Do ye believe that I am able to do this? They say to him, Yea, Lord.
A Yeshu bhakaisheje kumui, ashinangalole bhabhili bhala gubhaajendelenje, bhalabho gubhabhushiyenje, “Bhuli, nnikulupalilanga kuti ngunaakombola kunnamiyanga?” Nabhalabhonji gubhaajangwilenje, “Elo Mmakulungwa,”
29 Then he touched their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it done to you.
Penepo a Yeshu gubhakwashiye meyo gabhonji, bhalinkuti, “Ibhe malinga shinshite kulupalilanga.”
30 And their eyes were opened. And Jesus sternly charged them, saying, See that no one know it.
Meyo gabhonji gakubhalakukaga. Numbe a Yeshu gubhaakalipilenje, “Nnannugulilanje mundu jojowe genega.”
31 But they went out, and spread abroad his fame in all that country.
Ikabheje gubhajabhwilenje, nishumya ngani ja a Yeshu nshilambo showe.
32 And as they were going out, lo! they brought to him a dumb man, possessed by a demon.
Na bhandunji pujabhulangaga, mundu jumo bhubhu akwete lioka, gwapelekwe kwa a Yeshu.
33 And when the demon was cash out, the dumb man spoke. And the multitudes marveled, saying, Never was the like seen in Israel.
Shangupe akashoyweje lioka, mundu jula gwatandwibhe bheleketa. Bhandunji gubhalapilenje bhalinkutinji, “Yene indui tukanabhe kuibhona pa Ishilaeli!”
34 But the Pharisees said, He casteth out the demons through the prince of the demons.
Ikabheje Mapalishayo gubhashitenje, “Bhanashoya maoka kwa mashili gaka nkulungwa jwa maoka.”
35 And Jesus went round all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the glad tidings of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease.
A Yeshu bhatendaga owela ilambo yowe na ijiji yowe, bhalijiganya mmashinagogi na lunguya Ngani ja Mmbone ja Upalume gwa a Nnungu, na lamya ilwele yowe na kila ungakola mashili.
36 And seeing the multitudes, he was moved with compassion for them, because they were harassed and scattered about, as sheep having no shepherd.
Bhai, bhakabhoneje lugwinjili lwa bhandu gubhaabhonelenje shiya, pabha bhashinkutotoshelanga na bhashinkukolanga lipamba malinga ngondolo yangali nshunga.
37 Then he saith to his disciples, The harvest indeed is great, but the laborers are few.
Penepo gubhaabhalanjilenje bhaajiganywa bhabho, “Maneng'eno gamagwinji, ikabheje bhakamula maengo bhashokope.
38 Pray therefore the Lord of the harvest to send forth laborers for his harvest.
Bhai, mwaajuganje bhayene maneng'eno bhatume bhakamula maengo ku maneng'eno gabho.”
