Matthew 11
1 And it came to pass, when Jesus had made an end of commanding his twelve disciples, he departed thence to teach and preach in their cities.
Yesu bu kamanisa vana zithumunu ziozi kuidi kumi minlonguki miandi miodi, wuyenda longi ayi samuna mu mavula mawu.
2 Now when John heard in the prison the works of the Christ, he sent by his disciples,
Yowani Mbotiki mu thangu kaba mu nloko, wuwa tsangu yi mavanga momo Klisto kaba vanganga, buna wufidisa minlonguki miandi muingi banyuvula:
3 and said unto him, Art thou he that cometh, or look we for another?
—Bukiedika kuandi ti ngeyo mutu wowo wufueti kuiza voti tuvingila wunkaka e?
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Go your way and tell John the things which ye do hear and see:
Yesu wuba vutudila: —Luvutuka kuidi Yowani ayi lunkamba mambu momo lulembo wa ayi lulembo moni:
5 the blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good tidings preached to them.
batu bafua meso balembo moni; makoka malembo diati; batu babuazi balembo vedusu; batu bafua matu balembo wi ayi bafua balembo fuluka ayi Nsamu Wumboti wulembo longu kuidi batu basukama.
6 And blessed is he, whosoever shall find none occasion of stumbling in me.
Khini kuidi mutu wela kambu zimbisa minu kiandi mu diambu diama.
7 And as these went their way, Jesus began to say unto the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to behold? a reed shaken with the wind?
Mu thangu minlonguki mivutuka, Yesu wubaka diluaku di yolukila mambu ma Yowani Mbotiki kuidi nkangu wu batu: —Mbi biobi luyenda tala ku dikanga e? Nti wufioti wulembo vevomono kuidi phemo e?
8 But what went ye out for to see? a man clothed in soft [raiment]? Behold, they that wear soft [raiment] are in kings’ houses.
Vayi buna nani luyenda tala e? Mutu wuvuata minledi mi kitoko e? Nana. Bila batu bobo bamvuatanga minledi mi kitoko mu zinzo zi mintinu bankalanga.
9 But wherefore went ye out? to see a prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet.
Vayi buna mbi luyenda tala? Mbikudi luyenda tala e? Nyinga, buawu kuandi vayi ndikulukamba ti niandi viokidi mbikudi.
10 This is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, Who shall prepare thy way before thee.
Bila niandi mutu wowo minkanda milembo tubila ti: tala, mfidisidi mvualꞌama ku ntualꞌaku, niandi wela kukubikila nzila!
11 Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not arisen a greater than John the Baptist: yet he that is but little in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
Bukiedika ndikulukamba: mu batu boso bobo babutu kuidi baketo, kuisi ko mutu wowo viokidi Yowani Mbotiki. Vayi mutu wowo wulutidi kefa mu kipfumu ki Diyilu, wunlutidi.
12 And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and men of violence take it by force.
Tona mu bilumbu bi Yowani Mbotiki nate buabu Kipfumu ki Diyilu kilembo bakulu mu kingolo ayi batu ba ngolo bawu kaka banzionanga kiawu.
13 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.
Bila Mina ayi mimbikudi mioso mibikula nate mu thangu Yowani.
14 And if ye are willing to receive [it], this is Elijah, which is to come.
Enati lutidi ku diwilukila buna luzaba ti niandi Eli mutu wowo wufueti kuiza.
15 He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Woso widi matu ma wilu buna bika kawa.
16 But whereunto shall I liken this generation? It is like unto children sitting in the marketplaces, which call unto their fellows,
—Banga mbi ndenda dedikisa tsungi yayi e? Yidedikini banga bana bafioti bavuendi va zandu ayi balembo tedi bakundi bawu:
17 and say, We piped unto you, and ye did not dance; we wailed, and ye did not mourn.
Beto tulusikidi nsioni lusia kina ko; tuyimbila minkunga mi mafua vayi lusia nionga ko.
18 For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He hath a devil.
Bila Yowani wuyiza, kasa nua ko ayi kasa dia ko vayi bakamba: “pheve yimbimbi yidi yandi!”
19 The Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, Behold, a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners! And wisdom is justified by her works.
Vayi Muana Mutu, wuyiza, wundia ayi wunua ayi bakamba: “Niandi nzuna kadi ayi kolo mbungu, nkundi mimfutisi mi ziphaku ayi wu bankua masumu.” Vayi nduenga yimonikanga bumboti mu mavanga mandi.
20 Then began he to upbraid the cities wherein most of his mighty works were done, because they repented not.
Bosi wutubidila ngolo mavula momo mu kavangila bikumu biandi biwombo, bila batu bobo basia balula mavanga mawu ko.
21 Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
—Mabienga kuidi ngeyo Kolazini ayi ngeyo Betezayida bila enati ndivanga mu mavula ma Tile ayi Sidoni bikumu biobi ndivanga va beno, nganu thama batu ba mavula beni bavuata zitsaku ayi bakivinda dibombi mu monisa ti babaludi mintima.
22 Howbeit I say unto you, it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the day of judgment, than for you.
Bukiedika ndikulukamba mu lumbu kitsambusu, Tile ayi Sidoni bela baka thumbudulu yifioti vayi yeno yela luta ngolo!
23 And thou, Capernaum, shalt thou be exalted unto heaven? thou shalt go down unto Hades: for if the mighty works had been done in Sodom which were done in thee, it would have remained until this day. (Hadēs g86)
Bosi ngeyo Kafalinawumi, wumuena ti ngeyo wela tombulu ku yilu e? Nana! Wela kululu nate ku tsi bafua! Bila enati ndivanga mu Sodomo bikumu banga biobi ndivanga kuidi ngeyo, nganu divula beni dilembo zingi nate buabu. (Hadēs g86)
24 Howbeit I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee.
Bukiedika ndikulukamba mu lumbu kitsambusu, thumbudulu yi Sodomo yela ba yideduka, yaku yela viatuka ngolo!
25 At that season Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou didst hide these things from the wise and understanding, and didst reveal them unto babes:
Mu thangu yina, Yesu wukamba: —A Tata, Pfumu yi Diyilu ayi yi ntoto, ndikukembisa bu wusueka mambu mama kuidi batu badi nzayilu ayi kuidi batu badi diela vayi wumonisa mawu kuidi bana bafioti.
26 yea, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in thy sight.
Nyinga Tata, buawu bobo bubela luzolo luaku.
27 All things have been delivered unto me of my Father: and no one knoweth the Son, save the Father; neither doth any know the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son willeth to reveal [him].
Dise diama niandi wuphana bima bioso. Kuisi ko mutu zebi Muana vayi Tata kaka wunzebi. Kuisi ko mutu zebi Tata vayi Muana wunzebi ayi mutu wowo Muana kazodidi kummonikisa niandi.
28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Yizanu kuidi minu beno boso bobo luvongidi ayi luneti mimfuna, minu mandi luvundisa.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
Bika lubonga vangu kiama, lulonguka kuidi minu bila minu ndidi mutu wu ntima wulembami ayi wukuluka ayi ma lubaka luvundulu mu miela mieno.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Bukiedika vangu kiama kisi phasi mu nata ko ayi mfunꞌama wisi zitu ko.
