Matthew 12
1 In that season, went Jesus, on, the sabbath, through the cornfields, —and, his disciples, hungered, and began to pluck ears of corn, and to eat.
Awo mu kiseera ekyo Yesu n’ayita mu nnimiro y’emmere ey’empeke ku lunaku lwa Ssabbiiti. Abayigirizwa be ne balumwa enjala ne batandika okunoga ebirimba by’eŋŋaano ne babirya.
2 But, the Pharisees, observing it, said unto him, Lo! thy disciples, are doing what is not allowed to do, on sabbath.
Naye Abafalisaayo bwe baalaba kino ne bagamba Yesu nti, “Laba abayigirizwa bo bakola ekitakkirizibwa kukolebwa ku Ssabbiiti.”
3 And he said unto them, have ye never read what, David, did, when he hungered, and they who were with him? how
Naye Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Temusomanga ku Dawudi kye yakola bwe yalumwa enjala ne be yali nabo?
4 he entered into the house of God and, the presence-bread, did eat, which it was not, allowable, for him to eat, nor for them who were with him, —save for the priests, alone?
Yayingira mu nnyumba ya Katonda n’alya emigaati egy’okulaga, egikkirizibwa bakabona bokka okulya.
5 Or have ye not read, in the law, that, on the sabbaths, the priests, in the temple, the sabbath, profane, and are, blameless?
Oba temusomanga mu mateeka nti bakabona ababeera mu luwalo lw’okuweereza mu Yeekaalu ne basobya ku Ssabbiiti tebaliiko musango?
6 But I say unto you, —Something greater than the Temple, is here!
Naye mbagamba nti ekisinga Yeekaalu kiri wano.
7 If, however, ye had known what this meaneth—Mercy, I desire, and not, sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the blameless;
Naye singa mumanyi amakulu ga kino nti, ‘Njagala mubeerenga ba kisa okusinga okuwangayo ssaddaaka,’ temwandinenyezza bataliiko musango.
8 For, the Son of Man, is, Lord of the Sabbath.
Kubanga Omwana w’Omuntu ye Mukama wa Ssabbiiti.”
9 And, passing on from thence, he came into their synagogue;
N’avaayo n’ajja mu kuŋŋaaniro lyabwe.
10 and lo! a man having, a withered hand, and they questioned him, saying, Is it allowable, on the sabbath, to heal? that they might accuse him.
Laba mwalimu omusajja eyalina omukono ogwakala. Ne babuuza Yesu obanga kikkirizibwa okuwonya ku Ssabbiiti. Baali basuubira nti anaddamu nti kituufu, balyoke bamuwawaabire.
11 And said unto them, What man, from among yourselves, [shall there be], —Who shall have one sheep, and, if this should fall, on the sabbath, into a pit, will not lay hold of it, and raise it?
Naye n’abaddamu nti, “Singa wabaddewo omuntu mu mmwe ng’alina endiga emu, n’egwa mu bunnya ku lunaku lwa Ssabbiiti, tagiggyamu?
12 How much better, then, a man, than, a sheep? So that it is allowable, on the sabbath, nobly, to act.
Kale, omuntu tasinga nnyo endiga omuwendo? Noolwekyo kikkirizibwa okukola ekirungi ku Ssabbiiti.”
13 Then saith he unto the man, Stretch forth thy hand! And he stretched it forth, —and it was restored, whole, as the other.
Bw’atyo n’agamba omusajja nti, “Golola omukono gwo.” N’agugolola ne guwona, ne guba mulamu nga gunnaagwo!
14 And the Pharisees, going forth, took, counsel, against him, to the end that, him, they might destroy.
Awo Abafalisaayo ne bafuluma ne bateesa nga bwe banaazikiriza Yesu.
15 But, Jesus, taking note, retired from thence, —and many followed him, and he cured them all;
Naye Yesu bwe yakimanya n’afuluma mu kuŋŋaaniro, abantu bangi nnyo ne bamugoberera, n’awonya abaali abalwadde bonna,
16 and straitly charged them, lest they should make him, manifest:
kyokka n’abakomako baleme okumwatuukiriza.
17 that it might be fulfilled, which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying: —
Ebyayogerwa Nnabbi Isaaya biryoke bituukirire nti:
18 Lo! my servant, whom I have chosen, My beloved, in whom, my soul, delighteth, —I will put my Spirit upon him, and, justice, unto the nations, will he report:
“Laba Omuweereza wange, ggwe neerondera, gwe njagala ennyo asanyusa emmeeme yange. Ndimuteekako Omwoyo wange era Alisalira amawanga gonna emisango.
19 He will not strive, nor will he cry out, nor shall any hear, in the broadways, his voice:
Taliyomba so talireekaana, era tewaliba n’omu aliwulira eddoboozi lye mu nguudo.
20 A bruised cane, will he not break, and, a smoking wick, will he not quench, —until he urge on, justice, to victory,
Talimenya lumuli lunafu, wadde okuzikiriza olutambi lw’ettaala olunyooka.
21 And, in his name, shall nations hope.
Era abamawanga baliba n’essuubi mu linnya lye.”
22 Then they brought unto him, one demonized, blind and dumb, —and he cured him, so that the dumb did speak and see.
Awo Yesu ne bamuleetera omusajja eyaliko dayimooni, nga muzibe w’amaaso era nga tayogera. N’amuwonya, omusajja eyali tasobola kwogera n’asobola okwogera n’okulaba.
23 And all the multitudes were beside themselves, and were saying, Can, this one, be, the Son of David?
Abantu bonna ne beewuunya ne boogera nti, “Ddala ddala ono si mwana wa Dawudi?”
24 But, the Pharisees, hearing it, said, This one, doth not cast out the demons, save in Beelzebul ruler of the demons.
Naye Abafalisaayo bwe baakiwulira ne boogera nti, “Ono agoba baddayimooni ku bwa Beeruzebuli omukulu wa baddayimooni.”
25 And, knowing their inward thoughts, he said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself, is laid waste, —and, no city or house divided against itself, will stand;
Yesu bwe yategeera ebirowoozo byabwe n’abagamba nti, “Obwakabaka bwe bwawukanamu, oba ekibuga wadde amaka, tebiyinza kuyimirira.
26 And, if, Satan, is casting, Satan, out, against himself, hath he become divided, —How then shall, his kingdom, stand?
Ne Setaani bw’agoba Setaani munne ku muntu aba yeyawuddemu. Obwakabaka bwe bunaayimirira butya?
27 And, if, I, in Beelzebul, am casting out the demons, In whom are, your sons, casting them out? Wherefore, they, shall be, judges of you.
Obanga Nze ngoba baddayimooni ku bwa Beeruzebuli omukulu wa baddayimooni, kale batabani bammwe babagoba ku bw’ani? Noolwekyo be bali basalira omusango.
28 But, if, in God’s Spirit, I, am casting out the demons, then doubtless hath come upon you unawares, the kingdom of God!
Naye bwe mba ngoba baddayimooni n’amaanyi g’Omwoyo wa Katonda, kale Obwakabaka bwa Katonda buzze gye muli.
29 Or how can one enter the house of the mighty and, seize his goods, unless, first, he bind the mighty one? and, then, his house, he will plunder.
“Oba omuntu ayinza atya okuyingira mu nnyumba y’omuntu ow’amaanyi, n’amunyagako ebintu bye okuggyako ng’asooka okusiba ow’amaanyi oyo? Olwo n’alyoka anyaga ebintu bye.
30 He that is no with me, is, against me, —and, he that gathereth not with me, scattereth
“Oyo atali nange, mulabe wange. N’oyo atakuŋŋaanyiza wamu nange asaasaanya.
31 Wherefore, I say unto you, All sin and profane speaking, shall be forgiven unto men, —but, the speaking profanely of the Spirit, shall not be forgiven;
Noolwekyo mbategeereza ddala nti omuntu alisonyiyibwa buli kibi kyonna, na buli kuvvoola. Naye alivvoola Mwoyo Mutukuvu talisonyiyibwa.
32 And, whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven him, —but, whosoever shall speak against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, either in this age, or the coming. (aiōn g165)
Na buli muntu ayogera ekigambo ekibi ku Mwana w’Omuntu alisonyiyibwa, naye ayogera ekibi ku Mwoyo Omutukuvu talisonyiyibwa mu mulembe guno wadde ogugenda okujja. (aiōn g165)
33 Either make the tree good, and its fruit good, or make the tree worthless, and its fruit worthless; for, from the fruit, the tree is known.
“Buli muti gutegeererwa ku bibala byagwo. Omuti bw’ogulabirira gubala ebibala ebirungi, naye bw’ogulagajjalira tegubala bibala.
34 Broods of vipers! How can ye speak, good things, being, evil? For, out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaketh.
Mmwe abaana b’embalasaasa, mmwe abalina ebibi muyinza mutya okwogera ebirungi? Akamwa koogera ku biba bijjudde mu mutima.
35 The good man, out of the good treasure, putteth forth, good things; and, the evil man, out of the evil treasure, putteth forth, evil things.
Omuntu omulungi afulumya ebirungi okuva mu tterekero lye eddungi, era n’omuntu omubi afulumya ebibi okuva mu tterekero lye ebbi.
36 But I say unto you, That, every useless expression that men shall utter, they shall render, concerning it, an account, in a day of judgment;
Era mbategeeza nti buli kigambo kyonna ekitasaana abantu kye boogera, kiribabuuzibwa ku lunaku olw’okusalirako emisango.
37 For, by thy words, shalt thou be, justified, and, by thy words, shalt thou be condemned.
Bwe bityo ebigambo byo bye birikuweesa obutuukirivu era ebigambo byo bye birikusalizisa omusango.”
38 Then, answered him, certain of the Scribes and Pharisees, saying, Teacher! we desire of thee, a sign, to behold.
Awo abamu ku bannyonnyozi b’amateeka n’Abafalisaayo ne bagamba Yesu nti, “Omuyigiriza twagala otulage akabonero.”
39 But, he, answering, said unto them, A wicked and adulterous generation, a sign, doth seek, and, a sign, will not be, given, it, save the sign of Jonah the prophet.
Naye n’abaddamu nti, “Omulembe omwonoonefu era omwenzi ogunoonya akabonero; temugenda kuweebwa kabonero okuggyako aka nnabbi Yona.
40 For, just as was Jonah in the belly of the sea-monster three days and three nights, so, will be the Son of Man, in the heart of the earth, three days and three nights.
Kubanga Yona nga bwe yamala mu lubuto lw’ekyennyanja ekinene ennaku ssatu emisana n’ekiro, n’Omwana w’Omuntu bw’atyo bw’alimala mu ttaka ennaku ssatu emisana n’ekiro.
41 Men of Nineveh, will rise up in the judgment, with this generation, and will condemn it, —because they repented into the proclamation of Jonah; and lo! something greater than Jonah, here.
Abantu b’e Nineeve baliyimirira ne basaliza abantu b’omulembe guno omusango okubasinga, kubanga beenenya bwe baawulira okubuulira kwa Yona. Naye laba asinga Yona ali wano.
42 The queen of the south, will arise in the judgment with this generation and will condemn it—because she came out of the ends of the earth, to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and lo! something greater than Solomon, here.
Era ku lunaku olw’okusalirako omusango, kabaka omukazi ow’omu bukiikaddyo alisaliza abantu ab’omulembe guno omusango okubasinga, kubanga yava ku nkomerero y’ensi okujja okuwuliriza amagezi ga Sulemaani. Naye laba asinga Sulemaani ali wano.
43 But, when the impure spirit goeth out of the man, it passeth through waterless places, seeking rest, —and findeth it not.
“Omwoyo ogutali mulongoofu bwe guva mu muntu guyita mu malungu nga gunoonya aw’okuwumulirako, ne gutafuna wa kuwummulira.
44 Then, it saith, Into my house, will I return whence I came out, —and, coming, findeth it empty [and] swept and adorned.
Kyeguva gugamba nti, ‘Leka nzireyo mu nnyumba mwe nava.’ Bwe guddayo gusanga nkalu, nga eyereddwa era nga ntegeke.
45 Then, it goeth, and taketh along with itself, seven diverse spirits, more wicked than itself, —and, entering, abideth there; and, the last state of that man, becometh, worse than the first. So, shall it be, with this, wicked, generation.
Kyeguva gugenda ne guleeta emyoyo emirala musanvu egigusingako obwonoonefu, ne giyingira mu nnyumba omwo ne gibeera omwo. Olwo omuntu oyo n’abeera bubi nnyo okusinga bwe yali okusooka. Bwe kityo bwe kiriba n’omulembe guno omwonoonefu.”
46 While yet he was speaking unto the multitudes, lo! his mother and brethren, were standing without, seeking to speak with him.
Yesu bwe yali akyayogera n’ekibiina, nnyina ne baganda be ne batuuka ne bayimirira ebweru nga baagala okwogera naye.
47 [And one said to him, Lo! thy mother and thy brethren, without, are standing, seeking, to speak, with thee.]
Omuntu omu n’amutegeeza nti, “Nnyoko ne baganda bo, bali wabweru baagala kwogera nawe.”
48 But, he, answering, said unto him that was telling him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?
Yesu n’amuddamu nti, “Mmange ye ani era ne baganda bange be baani?”
49 And, stretching forth his hand towards his disciples, he said, Lo! my mother and my brethren!
N’agolola omukono gwe eri abayigirizwa be n’agamba nti, “Mulabe mmange ne baganda bange!
50 For, whosoever shall do the will of my Father who is in the heavens, he, is my, brother, and sister, and mother.
Kubanga buli akola ebyo Kitange ali mu ggulu by’ayagala oyo ye muganda wange, ye mwannyinaze era ye mmange.”
