Matthew 21
1 And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and came unto Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,
Mu thangu bafikama ku Yelusalemi, batula ku Betefange, buala buidi ku mongo minti mi olive, Yesu wutuma minlonguki miodi ayi
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.
wuba kamba: —Yendanu ku buala bobo buidi ku ntualꞌeno. Buna ma lumona phunda yi nketo yikangama ayi muanꞌandi wu mbakala va ndambu; luzinianguna ayi lundatina ziawu.
3 And if any one say aught unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.
Enati mutu wuluyuvudi, buna luvutula: “Pfumu wuzivuidi mfunu”. Buna wela kuzifidisa mu nsualu.
4 Now this is come to pass, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,
Mambu momo mavangama mu diambu di dedikisa mambu matuba mbikudi:
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.
Lukamba kuidi ndumba yi Sioni Tala Ntinuꞌaku wizidi kuidi ngeyo widi wulembama; widi va yilu phunda yi nketo vuendi va mbata muana phunda, muana wu phunda yi nketo.
6 And the disciples went, and did even as Jesus appointed them,
Minlonguki miyenda, mivanga boso Yesu kaba kambila.
7 and brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their garments; and he sat thereon.
Minata phunda yinketo ayi muana phunda, miyala minledi miawu va mbata ziphunda beni bosi Yesu wuvuanda vana.
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.
Nkangu wu batu bawombo bayala minledi miawu mu nzila. Bankaka bazenga matafi ma minti ayi bayala mawu mu nzila.
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.
Nkangu wu batu bobo baba ku ntuala ayi bobo baba ku mbusa, baba yamikinanga: Ozana kuidi Muana wu Davidi! Bika kasakumunu mutu wowo wunkuizila mu dizina di Pfumu Ozana mu bibuangu bizangama!
10 And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was stirred, saying, Who is this?
Bu kakota mu Yelusalemi, divula dioso dinikuka. Bayuvula: —Nani mutu wowo e?
11 And the multitudes said, This is the prophet, Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.
Nkangu wu batu wuvutula: —Yesu, mbikudi wu Nazaleti mu zunga ki Ngalili!
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;
Yesu wukota mu luphangu lu Nzo Nzambi, wukuka batu boso baba sumba bima. Wusengubula zimeza zi bobo baba sienzanga zimbongo ayi bikundu bi bobo baba nsumbisa mabembi.
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.
Ayi wuba kamba: —Disonama ti Nzo ama yela tedolo Nzo yi lusambulu vayi beno lukitudi yawu suamunu ki mivi.
14 And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple: and he healed them.
Baphofo ayi bantiudikanga bayiza kuidi niandi muna luphangu lu Nzo Nzambi ayi wubabelusa.
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,
Bapfumu zi banganga Nzambi ayi minlongi mi Mina mifuema ngolo bu bamona bikumu biobi bivanga Yesu ayi bu bamona bana baba yamikina mu khati luphangu lu nzo Nzambi ti: “Ozana, kuidi muana Davidi!”
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?
Diawu banyuvudila: —Wulembo wi kuaku mambu momo bana bobo balembo tubi e? Yesu wuba vutudila: —Nyinga! Vayi lutengi ko: Ngeyo wutambula Nzitusu aku mu miunu mi bana balezi ayi nate mu miunu mi bana batsombi?
17 And he left them, and went forth out of the city to Bethany, and lodged there.
Bosi wubabika, wutotuka mu divula, wuyenda ku Betani kuawu kaleka.
18 Now in the morning as he returned to the city, he hungered.
Mu nsuka-nsuka bu kaba mvutuka ku divula, wumona nzala.
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)
Bu kamona nti wumosi wu figi va ndambu nzila, wufikama vaba nti beni vayi meza na meza kaka kamona. Buna wukamba nti beni: —Wulendi buela butanga kadi dikundi dimosi ko! Muna thangu beni nti wu figi wutumbu yuma. (aiōn g165)
20 And when the disciples saw it, they marveled, saying, How did the fig tree immediately wither away?
Minlonguki bu mimona bobo, misimina ayi miyuvula: —A buevi nti wowo wuvikidi yumina?
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.
Yesu wuba vutudila: —Bukiedika ndikulukamba enati minu kidi yeno ayi enati lulendi memata ko, bika sia ti lubeki kaka buvangila mambu maphengi mu nti wu figi wawu vayi lubeki bukambila kuidi mongo wowo: “Katuka vava, wukiloza mu mbu!” ayi mela vangama.
22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
Mambu mamo malunlomba mu lusambulu, luela matambula enati luwilukidi.
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?
Yesu wukota mu Nzo Nzambi. Mu thangu kaba nlonga, bapfumu banganga Nzambi ayi bakulutu ba batu bayiza fikama va kaba ayi banyuvula: —Mu lulendo mbi wulembo vangila mambu momo? Ayi nani wuvana lulendo beni?
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.
Yesu wuba vutudila: —Thidi kuluyuvula mamvana kiuvu kimosi. Enati lupheni mvutu, buna bosi minu mamvama ndieka kulukamba mu lulendo mbi ndilembo vangila mambu mama.
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?
Nani wuvana Yowani minsua mu botika, Nzambi voti batu? Batona findana bawu na bawu ziphaka ayi batuba: —Beto kuiza kambi ti “Nzambi” buna maka tukamba ti “bila mbi lumanga kunwilukila?”
26 But if we shall say, From men; we fear the multitude; for all hold John as a prophet.
Bosi beto kamba ti “Batu” boma tummona mu diambu di nkangu wu batu bila baboso bazebi ti Yowani widi mbikudi.
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.
Buna bavutudila Yesu: —Tusi zaba ko! Niandi mamvandi wuba kamba: —Minu mamvama ndilendi kulukamba ko kani mu lulendo mbi ndilembo vangilanga mambu momo.
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.
Buevi lumbanza mu diambu diadi? Mutu wumosi wuba ayi bana bandi buadi bababakala. Wuyiza kuidi wutheti ayi wunkamba: “A muanꞌama yenda sadi buabu ku ndima yi vinu!”
29 And he answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented himself, and went.
Muana beni wumvutudila: “Mbengi kuama” Bosi kunzimunina, wubalula mayindu ayi wuyenda.
30 And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I [go], sir: and went not.
Dise diyenda kuidi muana wummuadi ayi mo mawu mambu kankamba. Niandi wuvutula “Nyinga Tata, ndinkuenda.” Vayi kasi kuenda ko.
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.
Nani wuvanga luzolo lu Dise mu bana babuadi? Bamvutudila: —Muana wutheti. Buna Yesu wuba kamba: —Bukiedika ndikulukamba mimfutisi mi ziphaku ayi bandumba leta bela kulutuaminina mu kota mu Kipfumu ki Nzambi.
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.
Bila Yowani wuyiza mu kulumonisa nzila yi busonga vayi lumanga kunwilukila. Muaki mimfutisi mi ziphaku ayi bandumba leta banwilukila. Ka diambu ko lumona momo vayi lusia balula mavanga ko muingi ku nzimunina lunwilukila.
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.
—Wanu nongo yinkaka: Mutu wumosi wuba ndimꞌandi yi vinu, wutungila yawu luphangu, wukaba dibulu dimosi mu kamuninanga mimbutu ma vinu. Wutunga nzo yi banga mu diambu di sunganga ndimꞌandi. Wuyekula ndima beni mu mioko mi bisadi bi ndima muingi bayifutilanga; bosi wuyenda mu nzietolo.
34 And when the season of the fruits drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, to receive his fruits.
Thangu yi mvelongo mimbutu bu yifuana, wutuma bisadi biandi kuidi bisadi biobi kadefisa ndima beni muingi belandi ndambuꞌandi mimbutu.
35 And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.
Vayi minkuni mi ndima yi vinu beni mibuila bisadi biandi: mibeta wumosi, mivonda wunkaka bosi milozila wuntatu matadi.
36 Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them in like manner.
Pfumu yi ndima vinu beni wutuma bisadi binkaka; lelo bawombo katuma viokila bobo katuama tuma va theti vayi mambu mo mawu bavangulu kuidi bobo kasia bikila ndima.
37 But afterward he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son.
Bosi wuba fidisila muanꞌandi bu katuba ti: bela kinzika muanꞌama.
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.
Vayi minkuni buna mimona muana beni wulembo yizi, mikambasana ti: “Taleno mutu wowo wela vinginina kiuka, yizanu tumvonda muingi kiuka kikituka kieto.”
39 And they took him, and cast him forth out of the vineyard, and killed him.
Mimbuila, minkoka ku nganda yi ndima ayi mimvonda.
40 When therefore the lord of the vineyard shall come, what will he do unto those husbandmen?
Buevi lumbanza, thangu pfumu yi ndima yi vinu bu kela vutuka, buevi kela vangila minkuni miomio?
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.
Bamvutudila: —Wela vonda, mu kambu kiadi batu bobo bambimbi. Bosi wela defisa ndima yi vinu beni kuidi minkuni minkaka miomi miela kumvananga mimbutu mu kadika thangu yeti velo mimbutu!
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?
Bosi Yesu wuba kamba: —Kadi khumbu lutengi ko mu masonoko: Ditadi diodi diloza mintungi dikituka ditadi di mfunu, di fuma ki nzo. Pfumu niandi wuvanga buawu. Ayi didi diambu di tsiminanga mu meso meto!
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.
Diawu ndikulukambila ti bela kuluziona Kipfumu ki Nzambi ayi bela vana kiawu kuidi batu bobo bela kibutila mimbutu.
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.
Vayi woso mutu wela bua va ditadi beni wela keluka mu bitini, vayi woso wela builu ditadi beni wela mana kosumuka.
45 And when the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.
Buna bamana wa zinongo ziozi, bapfumu banganga Nzambi ayi Bafalisi babakula ti Yesu bawu kalembo yolukila.
46 And when they sought to lay hold on him, they feared the multitudes, because they took him for a prophet.
Batomba nzila yi kunkangila vayi nkangu wu batu baba mona boma bila batu bammona ti niandi widi mbikudi.
