Matthew 7
1 “Do not judge and you will not be judged.
“Mkoto kuvahamula vangi, muni na nyenye yati mwihamuliwa lepi na Chapanga,
2 For, just as you judge others, you will yourselves be judged, and the standard that you use will be used for you.
Ndava muni chemukuvahamula vangi, na nyenye yati mwihamuliwa, na chipimu chilachila cha mwihengela kwa vangi, ndi Chapanga yati avahengela nyenye.
3 Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your friend’s eye, while you pay no attention at all to the plank of wood in yours?
Ndava kyani wilola lungoda mulihu la mlongo waku, na kuni wangaluwona lumbagalu mulihu laku?
4 How will you say to your friend ‘Let me take out the speck from your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own?
Amala yati wijova wuli, kwa mlongo waku, ‘Linda hoti, nikuwusa lungoda mulihu laku,’ Kuni wamwene una lumbagalu mulihu laku?
5 Hypocrite! Take out the plank from your own eye first, and then you will see clearly how to take out the speck from your friend’s.
Veve mweukujikita kuvya mbwina! Wusa hoti lumbagalu lweluvi mulihu laku. Pena ndi peuhotola kulola bwina kuwusa lungoda mulihu la mlongo waku.”
6 “Do not give what is sacred to dogs; they will turn and maul you. Do not throw your pearls before pigs; they will trample them underfoot.
“Mkoto kugapela mabwa vindu vyamsopi vakotoka kung'anamuka na kuvalemasa mwavene, amala mkoto kugapela maguluvi lulu zeziguliswa kwa mashonga gamahele muni vakotoka kulivatila kwa magendelu gavi.”
7 Ask, and it will be given to you; search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.
“Muyupa yati mwipewa, mlondai yati mwipata, muhodisa mlyangu yati vakuvadindulila.
8 For the person who asks receives, the person who searches finds, and the door will be opened to the person who knocks.
Ndava muni mweiyupa ipewa na mweilonda yati ipata na mweihodisa mlyangu yati idinduliliwa.
9 Who among you, when their child asks them for bread, will give them a stone,
Wu, avi mmonga pagati yinu, ngati mwana waki akamuyupa libumunda akumpela liganga?
10 or when they ask for a fish, will give them a snake?
Amala akamuyupa somba akumpela liyoka?
11 If you, then, wicked though you are, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give what is good to those who ask him!
Ngati hinu nyenye, mwavahakau, mwimanya kuvapela vana vinu vindu vyabwina, chakaka Dadi winu wa kunani akuvahengela neju akuvapela vindu vyabwina, vala vevakumuyupa.”
12 “Do to others whatever you would wish them to do to you; for that is the teaching of both the Law and the prophets.
“Goha gemwigana vandu vavahengela nyenye, mvahengela na vene mewawa. Yeniyi ndi maana ya Malagizu ga Bambu geampeli Musa na mawuliwu ga vamlota va Chapanga.”
13 Go in by the small gate. The road that leads to destruction is broad and spacious, and many go in by it.
“Muyingila kwa kupitila mlyangu udebe. Ndava muni njila yeyilongosa mukuyongomela ndi yipana na mlyangu waki ndi upana, veviyingila mwenumo ndi vamahele.
14 For the gate is small, and the road narrow, that leads to life, and there are few who find it.
Nambu njila yeyilongosa kuyingila kuwumi wa magono goha ndi ngalingasi na mlyangu waki ungalingasi, vandu vamahele lepi vevihotola kumanya njila yeniyi.”
15 “Beware of false teachers – people who come to you in the guise of sheep, but at heart they are ravenous wolves.
“Mujiyangalila na vamlota va udese, vene vibwela kwinu vakujilangisa cha kuvala ngati limbelele, nambu chamugati ndi libwa likali la kudahi.
16 By the fruit of their lives you will know them. Do people pick grapes from thorn bushes, or figs from thistles?
Mukuvamanya ndava ya matendu gavi. Wu, vandu viyava matunda ga zabibu mumkongo wa minga amala tini mumkongo wa minga?
17 So, too, every sound tree bears good fruit, while a worthless tree bears bad fruit.
Mewawa ndi kila mkongo wabwina wipambika matunda gabwina, na mkongo uhakau wipambika matunda gahakau.
18 A sound tree cannot produce bad fruit, nor can a worthless tree bear good fruit.
Mkongo wabwina nakuhotola kupambika matunda gahakau, kavili mkongo mhakau nakupambika matunda gabwina.
19 Every tree that fails to bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
Kila mkongo wangapambika matunda gabwina yati udumuliwa na kutagiwa kumotu.
20 So it is by the fruit of their lives that you will know such people.
Hinu, mukuvamanya ndava ya matendu gavi.”
21 Not everyone who says to me ‘Master! Master!’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
“Lepi kila mundu mweakunikemela, ‘Bambu, Bambu,’ Yati iyingila Muunkosi wa Chapanga. Nambu ngayula mweihenga geigana Dadi wangu mweavi kunani.”
22 On that day many will say to me ‘Master, Master, was not it in your name that we taught, and in your name that we drove out demons, and in your name that we did many miracles?’
Vamahele, “Yati vakunijovela, ‘Ligono lila la uhamula wa Bambu, Bambu! Paliina laku tavakokosili vandu ujumbi waku, na paliina laku tavawusili vandu mizuka na kukita gachinamtiti yamahele.’
23 And then I will say to them plainly ‘I never knew you. Go from my presence, you who live in sin.’
Kangi yati nikuvajovela, katu nakuvamanya nyenye, muwuka palongolo yangu mwemuhenga gahakau!”
24 “Everyone, therefore, who listens to this teaching of mine and acts on it may be compared to a prudent person, who built their house on the rock.
“Hinu mundu yeyoha mweiyuwana malovi gangu na kugahenga, iwanangana na mundu mweavi na luhala lwabwina, mweajengili nyumba yaki panani ya litalau.
25 The rain poured down, the rivers rose, the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, for its foundations were on the rock.
Fula yikatonya na mifuleni yikamema manji gamahele, mpungu wakabwela na kuyitova nyumba yeniyo. Nambu nyumba yeniyo nakugwa ndava yijengiwi panani ya litalau.”
26 Everyone who listens to this teaching of mine and does not act on it may be compared to a foolish person, who built their house on the sand.
“Nambu mundu yeyoha mweiyuwana malovi gangu na ibela kugahenga, iwanangana na mundu myimu mweijenga nyumba yaki panani ya msavati.
27 The rain poured down, the rivers rose, the winds blew and struck against that house, and it fell with a great crash.”
Fula yikatonya na mifuleni yikamema manji gamahele na mpungu ukabwela na kuitova nyumba yeniyo, nayene yikagwa na kudenyekana neju!”
28 By the time that Jesus had finished speaking, the crowd was filled with amazement at his teaching.
Yesu peamali kujova malovi ago, msambi wa vandu ukakangaswa ndava ya mawuliwu gaki.
29 For he taught them like one who had authority, and not like their teachers of the Law.
Muni awulayi ngati mundu mweavi na uhotola ndi lepi ngati vawula vavi va malagizu.
