< Mark 12 >

1 And he began to speak unto them in parables. A man planted a vineyard, and set a hedge about it, and digged a pit for the winepress, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into another country.
Yesu kanjiti kutakula nawu kwa mifanu, “Muntu yumu kalimiti lirambu lya mizabibu. Katindiliziya shibambaza na pakati pa lirambu kabawa lirindi lya kuyonera zabibu, kanyawa lilingu lya kulolelera. Kawazimila lirambu ali kwa walimaji, mweni kagenda mpaka lushi lwa kutali.
2 And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that he might receive from the husbandmen of the fruits of the vineyard.
Shipindi sha kubenanga, kamtumiti ntumintumi gwakuwi kwa walimaji walii, kamjegeri seemu ya viboga vya lirambu lyakuwi.
3 And they took him, and beat him, and sent him away empty.
Walimaji walii wambata, wamkoma, wamwuziya mawoku hera.
4 And again he sent unto them another servant; and him they wounded in the head, and handled shamefully.
Kamtuma kayi ntumintumi yumonga, ayu viraa walimaji wamkomanga mumtuwi na kumtendera vidoda.
5 And he sent another; and him they killed: and many others; beating some, and killing some.
Mweni kana lirambu ulii kamtuma kayi ndundami yumonga, walimaji awa wamlagiti. Watenditi hangu kwa wamonga wavuwa yakawatumiti, wamonga wawakomiti, na wamonga wawalaga.
6 He had yet one, a beloved son: he sent him last unto them, saying, They will reverence my son.
Kasigaliwiti na muntu yumu, yani mwana gwakuwi yakamfira. Upeleru kamtuma ayu pakalihola, ‘Hawamupanani ligoya mwana gwangu.’
7 But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be ours.
Kumbiti walimaji awa waligambirana, ‘Ayu ndo Mweni mhala, tumlagi su uhala wakuwi uweri wa twenga!’
8 And they took him, and killed him, and cast him forth out of the vineyard.
Su, wambata, wamlaga na kumyasa kunja kulirambu lilii.
9 What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do? he will come and destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard unto others.
“Hashi, mweni kana lirambu hakatendi shishi? Hakizi kuwalaga walimaji woseri na kuliyazimilira lirambu lya mizabibu kwa wantu wamonga.
10 Have ye not read even this scripture; The stone which the builders rejected, The same was made the head of the corner:
Hashi, hamwenibetuli Malembu Mananagala, ‘Libuwi lyawaliremiti wanyawa numba Vinu liwera libuwi lyaliwera na mana nentu kuliku mabuwi goseri.
11 This was from the Lord, And it is marvelous in our eyes?
Mtuwa ndo mweni yakatenditi shintu ashi, Nasheni ndo shakulikangasha kwa twenga’?”
12 And they sought to lay hold on him; and they feared the multitude; for they perceived that he spake the parable against them: and they left him, and went away.
Watambika wa numba ya Mlungu na wafunda wa malagaliru na wazewi wavimaniti handa mfanu agu guweriti kawalonga womberi. Hangu wajeriti kumbata, kumbiti watiriti lipinga lya wantu. Su wamleka kagendi zakuwi.
13 And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, that they might catch him in talk.
Su Mafalisayu wamu na wantu wa shipinga sha mfalumi Herodi wawatumiti su wamgomiziyi Yesu kwa visoweru vyakuwi.
14 And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest not for any one: for thou regardest not the person of men, but of a truth teachest the way of God: Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not?
Wamgendera, wamgambira, “mfunda tuvimana handa gwenga ndo muntu yagwaminika, gutakula nakaka hera, wala gumshera ndiri muntu yoseri shakaliholiti. Gulishera ndiri ukulu wa muntu, toziya gufunda unakaka hera wa Mlungu kwa wantu. Su, gutugambiri vya halali kumupa Kaisari kodi ama ndala?”
15 Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see it.
Kumbiti Yesu kavimaniti Ufyangu wawu, kawagambira, “Mbona mnjera? Mnanguziyi mpiya ligwala.”
16 And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar’s.
Wamlanguziya. Yomberi kawakosiya, “Sheni na shilanguliru ashi sha gaa?” Wamwankula, “Shilanguliru ashi sha Kaisari.”
17 And Jesus said unto them, Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s. And they marveled greatly at him.
Su Yesu kawagambira, “Vya Kaisari mmupanani Kaisari na vya Mlungu mmupanani Mlungu.” Walikangashira nentu.
18 And there come unto him Sadducees, which say that there is no resurrection; and they asked him, saying,
Wantu wawalawiti mushipinga sha Masadukayu, walii watakulaga kwahera muntu yakaweza kuzyuka, su wamgenderiti Yesu wamkosiya,
19 Master, Moses wrote unto us, If a man’s brother die, and leave a wife behind him, and leave no child, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
“Mfunda Musa katulagaliriti hangu, ‘Muntu pakahowa na kumleka mdala pota mwana, mlongu gwakuwi mpaka kamtoli mkenja ulii na kamyiwuliri wana mlongu gwakuwi yakahowiti.’
20 There were seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and dying left no seed;
Su kuweriti na walongu saba. Gwa kwanja kamyugiti, kahowa pota kumleka mwana.
21 and the second took her, and died, leaving no seed behind him; and the third likewise:
Mlongu gwa pili kamyuga mkenja ayu na yomberi kahowa pota kuleka mwana. Ilawiriti ntambu iraayi kwa mlongu gwa tatu.
22 and the seven left no seed. Last of all the woman also died.
Woseri saba wahowa pota kuleka wana. Pawupeleru mdala ulii kahowa.
23 In the resurrection whose wife shall she be of them? for the seven had her to wife.
Vinu wantu pawazyuka mulishaka lya kuzyuka, mawu ayu hakaweri mdala gwa gaa? Toziya woseri saba wamyugiti.”
24 Jesus said unto them, Is it not for this cause that ye err, that ye know not the scriptures, nor the power of God?
Yesu kawankula, “Mwenga mwagamira toziya mgamana ndiri Malembu Mananagala ama likakala lya Mlungu.
25 For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as angels in heaven.
Toziya wawahowiti pawazyuka, hapeni wayugi wala kuyugwa, hawaweri handa wantumintumi wa kumpindi.
26 But as touching the dead, that they are raised; have ye not read in the book of Moses, in [the place concerning] the Bush, how God spake unto him, saying, I [am] the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?
Kumbiti kwa shisoweru sha kuzyukisiwa kwa wantu wawahowiti, hashi, mwenesomi mushindola sha Musa shisoweru shilii sha shitogolu shashiyakiti motu, Mlungu ntambu yakamgambiriti Musa, ‘Neni na Mlungu gwa Aburahamu na Mlungu gwa Isaka na Mlungu gwa Yakobu.’
27 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living: ye do greatly err.
Yomberi Mlungu ndiri gwa wawahowiti, ira Mlungu gwa wakomu. Su, mwenga mwagamira nentu!”
28 And one of the scribes came, and heard them questioning together, and knowing that he had answered them well, asked him, What commandment is the first of all?
Yumu gwa wafunda wa malagaliru kasokiti, kawapikanira Masadukayu wankulitakuziyana na Yesu. Pawawoniti Yesu kawankuliti weri, kamkosiya, “Mumalagaliru goseri, lilagaliru lyoshi likulu kuliku goseri?”
29 Jesus answered, The first is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God, the Lord is one:
Yesu kamwankula, “Lilagaliru likulu ndo ali, ‘Gupikiniri Israeli! Mlungu Mtuwa gwetu, ndo mweni Mtuwa gweka yakuwi.
30 and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength.
Gumfiri Mlungu Mtuwa gwaku kwa moyu gwaku goseri na kwa rohu yaku yoseri na kwa mahala gaku goseri na kwa makakala gaku goseri.’
31 The second is this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
Na lilagaliru lya pili kwa ukulu ndo ali, ‘Guwafiri wamonga ntambu yagulifira gumweni.’ Kwahera lilagaliru limonga likulu nentu kuliku ali.”
32 And the scribe said unto him, Of a truth, Master, thou hast well said that he is one; and there is none other but he:
Su ulii mfunda gwa malagaliru kamgambira, “Iherepa Mfunda! Gutakula nakaka kulonga Mlungu yumu hera na kwahera yumonga ira yomberi.
33 and to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbour as himself, is much more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
Na gumfiri Mlungu Mtuwa gwaku kwa moyu gwaku goseri na kwa mahala gaku goseri na kwa makakala gaku goseri na guwafiri wamonga ntambu yagulifira gamweni. Shitwatira ashi shana mana nentu kuliku matambiku goseri gakulunguziya torosu kwa Mlungu.”
34 And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said unto him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that durst ask him any question.
Yesu pakawoniti handa muntu ayu kamwankula kwa luhala, kamgambira, “Gwenga gwakutali ndiri na Ufalumi wa Mlungu.” Palongolu pa aga, kwahera muntu yakajeriti kayi kumkosiya shintu.
35 And Jesus answered and said, as he taught in the temple, How say the scribes that the Christ is the son of David?
Shipindi Yesu pakaweriti kankufunda Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu, kakosiiti, “Mbona wafunda wa malagaliru watakula handa Kristu mwana gwa Dawudi?
36 David himself said in the Holy Spirit, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, Till I make thine enemies the footstool of thy feet.
Dawudi pakalongoziwitwi na Rohu Mnanagala katakuliti, ‘Mtuwa kamgambiriti Mtuwa gwangu, Gukali uwega wa neni wa kumliwu, Mpaka panuwatula wankondu waku pasi pa magulu gaku.’”
37 David himself calleth him Lord; and whence is he his son? And the common people heard him gladly.
“Dawudi mweni kamshema Kristu Mtuwa. Su Kristu hakaweri hashi mwana gwakuwi?” Lipinga lya wantu waweriti wankumpikinira, Lipinga lya wantu liweriti lyakumpikanira Yesu kwa kunemelera.
38 And in his teaching he said, Beware of the scribes, which desire to walk in long robes, and [to have] salutations in the marketplaces,
Yesu pakaweriti kankufunda, katakuliti, “Mkali weri na wafunda wa malagaliru weni wafiraga kulipitiziya pitiziya walikwindira lihabiti ritali na wafira wantu wawalamsiyi kwa ligoya kusoku.
39 and chief seats in the synagogues, and chief places at feasts:
Wafiraga kulivaga muviti vya kulongolu munumba ya Mlungu, na kutola mpenyu ziherepa pamsambu
40 they which devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long prayers; these shall receive greater condemnation.
Wawayonga wakenja aku wankulipayira kumluwa Mlungu kwa shipindi shitali! Lishaka lya kutoza hawatabiki nentu!”
41 And he sat down over against the treasury, and beheld how the multitude cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much.
Yesu kaweriti kalivaga pakwegera na lisanduku lya luhanja. Kaweriti kankulola wantu wavuwa ntambu yawaweriti wankulavia mpiya na kuzitula muluhanja lwa Numba ngulu ya Mlungu. Walunda wavuwa walaviyiti mpiya zivuwa.
42 And there came a poor widow, and she cast in two mites, which make a farthing.
Kiza mkenja mhushu kalaviya senti ndidika mbili zya mpiya.
43 And he called unto him his disciples, and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, This poor widow cast in more than all they which are casting into the treasury:
Panu Yesu kawashema wafundwa wakuwi, kawagambira, “Nukugambirani nakaka, mkenja muhushu ayu kalaviya zivuwa kuliku wamonga woseri yawatuliti mpiya mulisanduku lya luhanja.
44 for they all did cast in of their superfluity; but she of her want did cast in all that she had, [even] all her living.
Mana woseri walaviya kulawilirana na shuma shashiyogizikiti, kumbiti mawu ayu, tembera mhushu, kalaviya vyoseri vyakaweriti navi, kalaviya kila shintu shakafiriti kwa kulikala.”
