Matthew 18
1 On the same occasion the disciples came to Jesus, and asked him, “Who is really the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”
Matungo yayoyayo iamanyisigwa akaza kung'wa Yesu akamuila, Nyenyu numukulu muutemi akigulu?
2 Jesus called a little child to him, and placed it in the middle of them, and then said,
Yesu akamitanga umung'enya numunino, akamuika pakati ao.
3 “I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven at all.
Akahinga, tai numuie, iga muhite kila itunu nukutula anga ang'enya nianino singamuzizahuma kingila ku utemi wa kigulu.
4 Therefore, anyone who will humble themselves like this child – that person will be the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
Kululo uyu nuituna anga ng'wana numunino, Umuntu nuanso mukulu kutemi nuakigulu.
5 And anyone who, for the sake of my name, welcomes even one little child like this, is welcoming me.
Nuyu wihi nuimu singiilya unge'wana numunino unsingiilyenene.
6 But, if anyone puts temptation in the way of one of these little ones who believe in me, it would be best for them to be sunk in the depths of the sea with a great millstone hung around their neck.
Kululo wihi nukuhuma kukinyila kuantuawa nianino nizaahui kumuleka Itunda. Ikutula iza umuntu nuanso atungiligwe igwe la kusela munkingo agumilwe mulunzi nululundu.
7 Alas for the world because of such temptations! There cannot but be temptations but sorrow awaits the person who does the tempting!
Isatiko lanyu anyaunkumbingula kunsoko a nkani ya unkunyili, kunsoko aya aiwi azizaimatungo. Ingi gwa isaliko lakwe umuntu uyu nuziziza kumatungo ayo, naziziza kunsoko ane.
8 “If your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off, and throw it away. It would be better for you to enter life maimed or lame, than to have both hands, or both feet, and be thrown into the fire that never goes out. (aiōnios g166)
Ang'wi umukono wako numugulu weenda kukinyila, Uteme uugume kuli nu ewe, hangi ikutula iza kitalako kingila kuupanga uzewimugila umukono ang'wi wimlema, kukila kungungwa kumoto uzazitite umikono nimigulu ihi. (aiōnios g166)
9 If your eye causes you to sin, take it out, and throw it away. It would be better for you to enter the life with only one eye, than to have both eyes and be thrown into the fires of Gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
Ang'wi iliho liko likutosha lipe uligume kuli nuewewe, ukutula iza uewe kingila ni liho lingwi kukola kwingila ni miho abiilikunu endu soswe moto. (Geenna g1067)
10 Beware of despising one of these little ones, for in heaven, I tell you, their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven.
Gozi mleke kumudalaha ung'wi wa anino awa. kunsoko kumuila kina kilunde akale amalaika ao mahiku ihi azeaulindie uunso wang'wa Tata ane nua kigulu.
12 “What think you? If a person owns a hundred sheep, and one of them strays, will the person not leave the ninety-nine on the hills, and go and search for the one that is straying?
Mukusiga ntuni? iga itule umuntu utite nkolo igana ling'wi ilimile ing'wi singi ukualeka ne ao ni makumi kenda mulugulu nukulongola kumupenza uyo nung'wi?
13 And, if they succeed in finding it, I tell you that they rejoice more over that one sheep than over the ninety-nine which did not stray.
Anga amuhole, tai kumuila, ukulumbilya kukila ao ni makumi kenda na kenda ni singa aialimie.
14 So, too, it is the will of my Father who is in heaven that not one of these little ones should be lost.
Ingi iti singa ulowa wang'wa Tata anyu nuakigulu kina ung'wi waanino awa kulimansila.
15 “If your brother or sister does wrong, go to them and convince them of their fault when you are both alone. If they listen to you, you have won them over.
Ang'wi ng'waanyu wakulea, longola ende umuhugulye uewe nu ng'wenso anga akije waina munyandugu ako.
16 But, if they do not listen to you, take with you one or two others, so that on the evidence of two or three witnesses, every word may be put beyond dispute.
Anga wahita kuulegeelya, muhole muntu ng'wi ang'wi abiili palung'wi nue, kunsoko imilomo naantu abiili ang'wi atatu ihumile kukondanilya ulukani luzipe.
17 If they refuse to listen to them, speak to the church; and, if they also refuse to listen to the church, treat him as you would a Gentile or a tax-gatherer.
Anga wihita kumutegeelya liile itekeelo ulukani ulu, angawahila hangi kulilegeelya itekeelo, nuanso waina munya kilungu rumuhoela mpia.
18 “I tell you, all that you forbid on earth will be held in heaven to be forbidden, and all that you allow on earth will be held in heaven to be allowed.
Tai numuile kilu nimukukilungaila mihi nu kilunde kikulugailwa hangi kilu nimukukilugula mihi nukigulu kikuhugulwa.
19 Again, I tell you that, if but two of you on earth agree as to what they will pray for, whatever it be, it will be granted them by my Father who is in heaven.
Hangi numuie kina antu abiili miumbi lanyu anga igombye lukani lihi mihi nialulompila nulanso utata ane nuakigulu ukituma.
20 For where two or three have come together in my name, I am present with them.”
Kunsoko abiili ang'wi atatu nikie palung'wi kukiila lina lane, nunene nkoli palung'wi nienso.
21 Then Peter came up, and said to Jesus, “Master, how often am I to forgive someone who wrongs me? As many as seven times?”
Hangi u Petro akaza akamuila u Yesu, ''mukulu, umunyanduguani antashe kanga nune numulekee, ata mupangati?
22 But Jesus answered, “Not seven times, but seventy times seven.
U Yesu akamuila, singakuila ang'wi mupugati, Ingi ata iti imakumi mupungati na mupungati.
23 Therefore the kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who wished to settle accounts with his servants.
Kunsoko nanso utemi wa kigulu wilika nuulemi uo nautakile kunonelya ialo la mutugwa wakwe.
24 When he had begun to do so, one of them was brought to him who owed him ten thousand bags of gold;
Naiwandya kunonelya ialo, umutugwe akwe ung'wi anudaiye makumi anzagu ikumi.
25 and, as he could not pay, his master ordered him to be sold towards the payment of the debt, together with his wife, and his children, and everything that he had.
Kunsoko aimugila anga nzila akulipa, unugole akwe akalagiilya aguligwe umusungu akwe, palung'wi niana akwe ni kintu kihi nautile uulipe wifung'we.
26 The servant threw himself down on the ground before him and said ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you all.’
Umutugwa akagwa, akatugama pa ntongeela akwe, akalunga mukulu utule nuugimya palung'wi nune hangi kuulipa kila ikintu.
27 The master was moved with compassion; and he let him go, and forgave him the debt.
Umugole wang'wa mutugwa nuanso akahungwa kinyauwai akalekanuka nayo ihi naumudaiye.
28 But, on going out, that same servant came upon one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred silver coins. Seizing him by the throat, he said ‘Pay what you owe me.’
Ingigwa umutugwa naiwalekelwa numugole, akalongola akamuamba muntungwi akamgoga kunsoka amudailye dinari igana ling'wi, akamuila ndipe iko ninukudaiye.
29 His fellow servant threw himself on the ground and begged for mercy. ‘Have patience with me,’ he said, ‘and I will pay you.’
Umutugwa uyu naudaigwe akamuila nindiile kuupa udu aya nundailye.
30 But the other would not, but went and put him in prison until he should pay his debt.
Umuntu gwa uyu nuang'wandyo akahita, sunga akalongola akamutunga kukitungo, anga wazawamailya iko numudaiye amutunguile.
31 When his fellow servants saw what had happened, they were greatly distressed, and went to their master and laid the whole matter before him.
Latugwa niangiza naiaona nikanso makipumie, Ikahung'wa kinyauwai kikulu, akaza ikamuila umugole ao kihi iko naikine kung'wanso.
32 So the master sent for the servant, and said to him ‘You wicked servant! When you begged me for mercy, I forgave you the whole of that debt.
Ingi gwa umgole uyo nua mutugwa akamitango akamuila ue mutugwa numbi, nakalekela uewe ideni lake lili kunsoko aumpepeye.
33 Shouldn’t you, also, to have shown mercy to your fellow servant, just as I showed mercy to you?’
Uewe gwa? singa au humile na kutula ni kinyauwai kumutugwa miako? Anga une nainukumie ikinyauwai.
34 Then his master, in anger, handed him over to the jailers, until he should pay the whole of his debt.
Umugole akwe ataka akamutwala kuantu niaja iantu, akatula gigwa sunga ruzemaila ilipo naudaigwe.
35 So, also, will my heavenly Father do to you, unless each one of you forgives his brother or sister from your heart.”
Iti ingi uu uTata ane nuakigulu uzimu tendeela, ang'wi ung'wianyu shuzemulekela imilandu umulana akwe kupuma munkolo yanyu.
