< Matthew 21 >

1 And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and came unto Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,
Sina Jesu ni barutwana bakwe ha ba chunina Jelusalema ni kwiza kwa Patepaje, he Lundu la Olive, linu Jesu a ba tumini barutwana ba kwe bobele,
2 saying unto them, Go into the village that is over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose [them], and bring [them] unto me.
na ba cho, “Muyende mu munzi wi chilila, mi ka pili ka mu kawane i ndonki i suminwe mwateni, ni kaana kayo. Mu zi sumunune mi mu zi lete kwa ngu.
3 And if any one say aught unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.
Haiba muntu zumwi u wamba chi mwi ka zateni, mute kuti, “Simwine uzi saka; mi zuna mutu ka zitumine nanwe.”
4 Now this is come to pass, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,
Linu i chi chi ba chiteki kuti icho chi ba wambwa mupolofita chi zuzilizwe.
5 Tell ye the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, Meek, and riding upon an ass, And upon a colt the foal of an ass.
Nati, “wambile mwana wa mukazana wa zione, 'Bone, simwine wako ukezite kwako, Cha kuli booza hansi na tantite he donki, Ni ha kana kayo, ka na mani ke donki.”
6 And the disciples went, and did even as Jesus appointed them,
Linu barutwana ba ba yendi ni ku ka tenda bo bulyo mwa ba ba laeleli Jesu.
7 and brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their garments; and he sat thereon.
Ba ba kaleti i donki ni mwana ni ku bika zizabalo za bo ha zili, mi Jesu a be kali ha zizwato.
8 And the most part of the multitude spread their garments in the way; and others cut branches from the trees, and spread them in the way.
Bungi bwa bantu ba bazali zizabalo za bo mu i nzila, ba mwi ba batemi mi tayi ya zisamu ni ku i zala mu inzila.
9 And the multitudes that went before him, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed [is] he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.
Linu ikunga ibayendi Jesu naseni kuyenda ne ikunga ibechilili, na huweleza nati, “Hosana kumwana Daafita! Utonolofezwe ukeza mwinzina lya simwine! Hosana kuwina mwiwulu!”
10 And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was stirred, saying, Who is this?
Linu Jesu heti chasika mwa Jelusalema, muleneñi wonse uba nyungani nibati, “Nyeni uzo?”
11 And the multitudes said, This is the prophet, Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.
Ibetabi, chiyati, “uzu nji Jesu uzwa mwa Nazaleta ina mwa Galileya.”
12 And Jesus entered into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money-changers, and the seats of them that sold the doves;
Linu Jesu chenjila mwi tempele. Abahindiki babali kuwuzikiza mwi tempele, ni kuzulika intafule zamasheleñi ni zipula zonse zibabauzi hamwina.
13 and he saith unto them, It is written, My house shall be called a house of prayer: but ye make it a den of robbers.
Abawambi kubali, “kuñoletwe kuti, 'Inzubo yangu kaisupwe kuti inzubo yetapelo,' kono inwe chimwaisandula chikunganino chabasa.”
14 And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple: and he healed them.
Linu zihofu ni zihole zibakezi kwali mwi tempele, mi nabahoza.
15 But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children that were crying in the temple and saying, Hosanna to the son of David; they were moved with indignation,
Mukulwana wamapulisita ni bañoli bababoni zintu zikomokisa zabantendi, mi singa bazuwa bahwile bahuweleza mwitempele ni bati, “Hosana kumwana a Daafita,” babanjilwa bukali.
16 and said unto him, Hearest thou what these are saying? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea: did ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?
Babati kwali, “Mane uzuwile zibakwete kuwamba aba bantu?” Jesu chati kubali, “Eni! Kono mane chimubabalite, 'Mutuholo twabachiche ni bapamba kuzwa milumbeko ihitiliza kukuluka'?”
17 And he left them, and went forth out of the city to Bethany, and lodged there.
Linu Jesu na basiya ni kuya kumuleneñi wa Bethani mi abakalali kwateni.
18 Now in the morning as he returned to the city, he hungered.
Linu kakusasa chabola kumuleneni, aba fwile inzala.
19 And seeing a fig tree by the way side, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only; and he saith unto it, Let there be no fruit from thee henceforward for ever. And immediately the fig tree withered away. (aiōn g165)
Kakubona chisamu chamuchaba kumbali ni nzila, abayendi kuchili mi abawani kuti kakwina chibikitwe kwateñi kunze yamakoba. Abawambi kuchili, “Kuzwa sunu kanzi nikube ni chichalantu kwako hape.” Imi kapilipili chisamu chamuchaba nichazuma. (aiōn g165)
20 And when the disciples saw it, they marveled, saying, How did the fig tree immediately wither away?
Linu balutwana haba boni bulyo ni ba komokwa ni bati, “ku iza bule kuti i samu lwa muchaba hohwaho lizume?”
21 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do what is done to the fig tree, but even if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou taken up and cast into the sea, it shall be done.
Jesu ne taaba na ba cho, “cho kusa kusima ni kucho, haiba ni mwina i ntumelo mi ka mubi ni mi hupulo yobele, kete mutende fela chiba tendwa kweli isamu lya muchaba. 'Kono ka muole kuwamba kwe chi chi wuulu,' u katulwe mui uulu mi u sohelwe mu iwate,'
22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
Mi mu ku chitahale. Chonse chi u kumbila che ntapelo, cha ku zumina, mo u tambule.”
23 And when he was come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came unto him as he was teaching, and said, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority?
Linu Jesu heza mwiitempele, muprisita mukulwana ni bakulwana babantu ni beeza kwali ha bali kuruta mi nacho, “chamaata ani ochita izi zintu? Mi wa akuha a amaata njeni?”
24 And Jesus answered and said unto them, I also will ask you one question, which if ye tell me, I likewise will tell you by what authority I do these things.
Jesu chobetaaba mi nabacho, “Ime name munimibuze impuzo imwina. Haiba nimuniwambila, name munimiwambile kuti chamaata nzi anichitisa izi zintu.
25 The baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven or from men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say unto us, Why then did ye not believe him?
Inkolobezo ya Joani- ibazwi kuhi? Kuzwiila kwiwulu kamba kubantu?” Babali kuwambola mukati kaabo, ni bati, “Haiba nituti, 'Kuzwa kwiwulu,' mwati kwetu, 'Chizi linu hamusana mubamuzumini?'
26 But if we shall say, From men; we fear the multitude; for all hold John as a prophet.
Kono haiba nituti, 'Kuzwa kubantu,' tutiya ikunga, kakuli bonse babona Joani kuba mupolofita.”
27 And they answered Jesus, and said, We know not. He also said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.
Linu babetabi Jesu nibati, “Katwiizi,” Imi naye nabetaba nati, “Nanga ime keti chinimiwambila kuti nji ani maata anichita chawo izi zintu.
28 But what think ye? A man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work today in the vineyard.
Kono iwe uzeza buti? Mukwame abena banaswisu bobele. Abayendi kuwetanzi mi nati, 'Mwanangu, kwiya ukasebeze muluwa lwe veine sunu.'
29 And he answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented himself, and went.
Mwana abetabi nati, 'kani woli,' kono mumasulezana nachincha muhupulo wakwe mi nayenda.
30 And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I [go], sir: and went not.
Imi mukwame nayenda kumwanaa kwe wabubeli mi nawamba chintu chiswana. Mwanaa kwe netaba nati, 'Kaniyende, sha,' kono kanabayendi.
31 Whether of the twain did the will of his father? They say, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, that the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.
Kubana bobele yabachiti intato yeshabo?” Babati, “Wetanzi” Jesu nabacho, “Chabusakusima ni micho, bateliisi bamali ni mahuule mubakenjile mumubuso we Ireeza inwe nimuseni.
32 For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye saw it, did not even repent yourselves afterward, that ye might believe him.
Mukuti Joani abezi kwenu chenzila ilukite, kono kanamubamuzumini, kono bateliisi bamali ni mahuule babamuzumini. Imi inwe, hamubona izo nizitendahala, kana mubabakeli zibe zenu kumamanimani kuti mumuzumine.
33 Hear another parable: There was a man that was a householder, which planted a vineyard, and set a hedge about it, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into another country.
Mutekeleze kwinguli imwi. Kubena mukwame, yabali sichibaka, Ababyalite iwa lyamuwoomba, nikubika lukwakwa kuzimbulusa, abashi chilubilo mwateni, abazaki ni ngalani yakubonena kulee, imi abaikalimi kubalimi bakalimite. Linu abayendi kuimwi inkanda.
34 And when the season of the fruits drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, to receive his fruits.
Imi inako yenkutulo yazichelantu haichunina, abatumi bahikana balikene kubabyali bamuwoomba kukahinda zichelantu zakwe.
35 And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.
Kono bakalimite mawa babahindi bahikana bakwe, kudama umwina, kwihaya zumwi, ni kugoboola zumwi ni mabwe.
36 Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them in like manner.
Imi hape, siluwa abatumi bamwi bahikana, kuhita bamatangilo, kono babyali bamawa bababachiti chenzila iswana.
37 But afterward he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son.
Kuzwaho, mwine siluwa abatumini mwanaa kwe kubali, nikucho, 'Kabakakuteke mwanangu.'
38 But the husbandmen, when they saw the son, said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and take his inheritance.
Kono balimi bamuwoomba hababona mwana, chibaliwambila kuti, uzu nji swana. 'Mwize, tumwihaye tuyole chifumu.'
39 And they took him, and cast him forth out of the vineyard, and killed him.
Linu chibamuhinda, chibamusohela hanze yaluwa lwamuwoomba, mi chiva mwihaya.
40 When therefore the lord of the vineyard shall come, what will he do unto those husbandmen?
Linu siluiwa heti nasike, kachite inzi kubalimi bewa lyamuwoomba?”
41 They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those miserable men, and will let out the vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons.
Babawambi kwali nibacho, “Kasinyasinye abo bakwame bafosahele chenzila yachituhu chikando, mi kuzwaho mwakalime mawa amuwoomba kubamwi balimi bamuwoomba, bakwame bawola kuliha mowoomba haubuzwa.”
42 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, The same was made the head of the corner: This was from the Lord, And it is marvelous in our eyes?
Jesu nabati, “Kana mubeni kubala mumañolo, 'Musumo Ubabakani bazaki Ubatendwa Musumo wamwikona. Ichi chibali kuzwila kwa Simwine, mi chitabisa mumenso etu'?
43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken away from you, and shall be given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
Chobulyo nimicho, mubuso we Ireeza kauzwiswe kwenu mi kauhewe kuchisi chilichitila zichelatu icho chine.
44 And he that falleth on this stone shall be broken to pieces: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will scatter him as dust.
Yense yeti nawile heli ibwe mwachokoke bwemba. Kono iyemwine heti niliwile, kagazubuke.”
45 And when the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.
Bakulwana bavapurista ni vafarisi habazuwa iyi inguli, babalemuhi kuti uwamba abo.
46 And when they sought to lay hold on him, they feared the multitudes, because they took him for a prophet.
Chakusaka kumusumina, babalikutiya ikunga, mukuti bantu babali kumuhinda kuti mupolofita.
