< Matthew 10 >

1 And having summoned the twelve disciples of Him He gave to them authority over spirits unclean so as to cast out them and to heal every disease and every sickness.
Jisọs kpọrọ ndị na-eso ụzọ ya iri na abụọ nye ha ikike ịchụpụ mmụọ na-adịghị ọcha, na ịgwọ nrịa nrịa na ọrịa niile dị iche iche.
2 And of the twelve apostles the names are these: first Simon who is being named Peter and Andrew the brother of him, (and *no*) James the [son] of Zebedee and John the brother of him,
Nke a bụ aha ndị ozi iri na abụọ ahụ: Saimọn (onye a na-akpọkwa Pita) na Andru nwanne Saimọn; Jemis nwa Zebedi, na Jọn nwanne ya.
3 Philip and Bartholomew, Thomas and Matthew the tax collector, James the [son] of Alphaeus and (Lebbaeus which having been called *K*) Thaddaeus,
Filip na Batalomi; Tọmọs na Matiu onye ọna ụtụ; Jemis nwa Alfiọs, na Tadiọs.
4 Simon the Zealot and Judas (*no*) Iscariot the [one] also having betrayed Him.
Saimọn onye a na-akpọ Zilọt na Judas Iskarịọt, onye raara ya nye nʼaka ndị gburu ya.
5 These twelve sent forth Jesus having instructed them saying; Into [the] way of the Gentiles not shall go off and into any city of [the] Samaritans not shall enter;
Ndị ikom iri na abụọ ndị a ka Jisọs nyere ikike zipụ. Maara ha ọkwa sị ha: “Unu agala nʼebe ndị mba ọzọ, maọbụ nʼebe ndị Sameria nọ.
6 do go however rather to those sheep the already perishing of [the] house of Israel.
Kama jekwurunụ ụmụ Izrel, ndị bụ atụrụ furu efu.
7 Going on also do proclaim saying that Has drawn near the kingdom of the heavens.
Mgbe unu na-aga, na-ekwusaaranụ ha sị, ‘alaeze eluigwe a dịla nso.’
8 [Those] ailing do heal, dead do raise, lepers do cleanse, demons do cast out; freely you received, freely do give.
Gwọọnụ ndị ọrịa, kpọteenụ ndị nwụrụ anwụ, meenụ ka ahụ ndị ekpenta dị ọcha, chụpụkwanụ mmụọ ọjọọ. Nʼefu ka unu natara. Ya mere, nyenụ nʼefu.
9 Neither may take along gold nor silver nor copper in the belts of you,
“Mgbe unu na-aga, unu anatala ọlaọcha maọbụ ọlaedo, maọbụ ọla ọbụla tinye nʼime belịt unu.
10 nor provision-bag for [the] way nor [take] two tunics nor sandals nor a staff; worthy [is] for the workman of the provisions of him (is. *k*)
Unu ejikwala akpa maka njem unu, maọbụ uwe abụọ, maọbụ akpụkpọụkwụ, maọbụ mkpanaka. Nʼihi na onye ọrụ kwesiri ihe e ji azụ ya.
11 into whatever now when city or village you may enter, do inquire who in it worthy is and there and there do remain until when you may go forth.
Ma obodo ọbụla maọbụ ogbe ọbụla unu bara nʼime ya, chọọnụ ụfọdụ ndị kwesiri nsọpụrụ bi nʼobodo ahụ. Nọgidekwanụ nʼụlọ ha ruo mgbe unu ga-ahapụ obodo ahụ.
12 Entering now into the house do greet it.
Mgbe unu na-abanye nʼụlọ ahụ, keleenụ ndị bi na ya sị, udo dịrị unu.
13 And if indeed shall be the house worthy, should come the peace of you upon it; only however unless it shall be worthy, the peace of you (to *NK(o)*) you should return.
Ọ bụrụ na ndị nọ nʼụlọ ahụ anabata unu, meenụ ka udo unu bịakwasị nʼụlọ ahụ. Ọ bụrụkwanụ na ha anabataghị unu, ka udo unu lọghachikwute unu.
14 And who[ever] (maybe *N(k)O*) unless shall receive you nor shall he hear the words of you, going forth out of the house or of the city that do shake off the dust of the feet of you!
Ọ bụrụ na onye ọbụla anabataghị unu, maọbụ jụ ịnụrụ okwu unu, mgbe unu na-ahapụ ụlọ ahụ maọbụ obodo ahụ kụchapụnụ aja dị nʼụkwụ unu.
15 Amen I say to you; More tolerable it will be for [the] land of Sodom and of Gomorrah on day of judgment than the city for that.
Nʼeziokwu, ọ ga-adịrị obodo ahụ njọ nʼụbọchị ikpe karịa obodo Sọdọm na Gọmọra.
16 Behold I myself send forth you as sheep in [the] midst of wolves; do be therefore shrewd as the serpents and innocent as the doves.
“Ana m ezipu unu dị ka atụrụ nʼetiti agụ. Ya mere, nweenụ uche dịka agwọ. Burunu ndị a na-apụghị ịta ụta dịka nduru.
17 do beware however of men; they will deliver for you into courts and in the synagogues of them they will flog you;
Kpachapụnụ anya. Nʼihi na a ga-enyefe unu nʼaka nzukọ ndị ụlọ ikpe, pịaakwa unu ihe nʼụlọ ekpere ha.
18 and before governors also and kings you will be brought on account of Me for a testimony to them and to the Gentiles.
A ga-ekpe unu ikpe nʼihu ndị na-achị achị na nʼihu ndị eze nʼihi m. Ma nke a ga-enye unu ohere ịgwa ha ihe banyere m. E, nke a ga-enye unu ohere ịgba ama banyere m nye ndị mba ọzọ.
19 When then (they may deliver up *N(k)O*) you, not may be anxious how or what you may speak; it will be given for you in that [very] hour what (you may say; *N(k)O*)
Mgbe ha jidere unu na-ekpe unu ikpe, unu echegbula onwe unu banyere ihe unu ga-ekwu, maọbụ otu unu ga-esi kwuo ya. Nʼihi na a ga-eme ka unu mata ihe unu ga-ekwu nʼoge ahụ.
20 Not for you yourselves are [the] ones speaking but the Spirit of the Father of you who is speaking through you.
Nʼihi na ọ bụghị unu ga-ekwu nʼonwe unu. Kama Mmụọ nke Nna unu bi nʼeluigwe ga-esite nʼọnụ unu kwuo okwu.
21 Will deliver up now brother brother to death and father child; And will rise up children against parents and will put to death them.
“Nwanne ga-arara nwanne ya nye ka e gbuo ya, nna ga-ararakwa nwa ya nye. Ụmụ ga-ebili megide ndị mụrụ ha mee ka e gbuo ha.
22 And you will be hated by all on account of the name of Me; the [one] however having endured to [the] end, he will be saved.
Mmadụ niile ga-akpọ unu asị nʼihi m. Ma onye ga-eguzosi ike ruo ọgwụgwụ ka a ga-azọpụta.
23 Whenever then they may persecute you in the city one, do flee to (a different; *N(k)O*) Amen for I say to you; certainly not shall you have completed the cities of Israel until when may come the Son of Man.
Mgbe ọbụla ndị mmadụ sogburu unu nʼotu obodo gbalaganụ nʼobodo ọzọ. Nʼezie, asị m unu, unu agaghị agazucha obodo niile nke Izrel tupu Nwa nke Mmadụ alọghachi.
24 Not is a disciple above the teacher nor [is] a servant above the master of him.
“Nwata akwụkwọ adịghị akarị onye nkuzi ya. Ohu adịghị akarịkwa nna ya ukwu.
25 [It is] sufficient for the disciple that he may become as the teacher of him and the servant as the master of him. If the master of the house Beelzebul (they called on, *N(k)O*) how much more those house members of him?
O zuorela onye na-eso ụzọ onye nkuzi ka ọ dị ka onye nkuzi ya, na ohu ahụ ka ọ dị ka onyenwe ya. Ọ bụrụ na a kpọrọ nna nwe ụlọ Belzebub, a ga-esi aṅaa ghara ịkpọ ndị ezinaụlọ ya ihe karịrị nke a?
26 Not therefore do fear them; no [thing] for is concealed which not will be revealed or hidden which not will be known.
“Ya mere unu atụla ha egwu. O nweghị ihe ọbụla e kpuchiri ekpuchi nke a na-agaghị ekpughe, maọbụ ihe e zoro ezo nke a na-agaghị eme ka ọ pụta ìhè.
27 What I tell you in the darkness do speak in the light, and what in the ear you hear do proclaim upon the housetops!
Ihe m na-agwa unu ugbu a na nzuzo, kọsaanụ ya mgbe chi bọrọ. Ihe m ji nwayọọ mee ka ọ baa unu na ntị, nọdụnụ nʼelu ụlọ kwusaa ya.
28 And not (do be afraid *N(k)O*) of those killing the body, the however soul not being able to kill; (do be afraid *N(k)O*) however rather the [One] being able both (*o*) soul and (*o*) body to destroy in hell. (Geenna g1067)
Unu atụla egwu ndị pụrụ igbu naanị anụ ahụ unu, ma ha enweghị ike ịmetụ mkpụrụobi unu aka. Kama onye unu ga-atụ egwu bụ Onye ahụ nwere ike imebi anụ ahụ unu na mkpụrụobi, tụbakwa ha nʼọkụ ala mmụọ. (Geenna g1067)
29 Surely two sparrows for an assarion are sold? And one of them not will fall to the ground apart from the Father of you!
Ọ bụghị otu kobo ka a na-ere ụmụ nza abụọ? Ma otu nʼime ha agaghị ada nʼala ma ọ bụrụ na Nna unu bi nʼeluigwe amaghị.
30 Of you now even the hairs of the head all numbered are.
Ọ bụladị agịrị isi dị nʼisi unu ka a maara ọnụọgụgụ ha.
31 Not therefore (do fear; *N(k)O*) than many sparrows are worth more you yourselves.
Ya mere, unu atụla egwu. Unu dị oke ọnụ karịa ọtụtụ ụmụ nza.
32 Everyone therefore who will confess in Me myself before men, will confess also I myself also I myself in him before the Father of Mine who [is] in (the *no*) heavens.
“Ya mere, onye ọbụla kwupụtara m nʼihu ụmụ mmadụ, ka mụ onwe m ga-ekwupụta nʼihu Nna m bi nʼeluigwe.
33 Whoever now maybe may deny Me before men, will deny I myself also I myself also him before the Father of Mine who [is] in (the *no*) heavens.
Ma onye ọbụla na-agọnarị m nʼihu ndị mmadụ, mụ onwe m ga-agọnarịkwa ya nʼihu Nna m bi nʼeluigwe.
34 Not may you think that I came to bring peace to the earth; not I came to bring peace but a sword.
“Unu echekwala na m bịara iweta udo nʼụwa. Abịaghị m iweta udo, kama ọ bụ iwebata mma agha.
35 I came for to set at variance A man against the father of him and a daughter against the mother of her and a daughter-in-law against the mother-in-law of her;
Abịara m ime, “‘Ka nwoke megide nna ya, ka nwa nwanyị megide nne ya, ka nwunye nwa megide nne di ya,
36 And enemies of the man the household of him.
ndị iro mmadụ ga-abụ ndị ezinaụlọ ya.’
37 The [one] loving father or mother above Me myself not is of Me worthy, and the [one] loving son or daughter above Me myself not is of Me worthy;
“Ọ bụrụ na ị hụrụ nne gị maọbụ nna gị nʼanya karịa m, i kwesighị ịbụ onye nke m. Ọ bụrụ na ị hụrụ nwa gị nwoke, maọbụ nwa gị nwanyị nʼanya karịa m, i kwesighị ịbụ onye nke m.
38 And he who not takes the cross of him and follows after Me, not is of Me worthy.
Onye ọbụla na-eburughị obe ya soro m, ekwesighị ị bụ onye nke m.
39 The [one] having found the life of him will lose it and the [one] having lost the life of him on account of Me will find it.
Onye ọbụla chọtara ndụ ya ga-etufu ya, ma onye ọbụla tufuru ndụ ya maka m, ga-achọtakwa ya.
40 The [One] receiving you Me myself receives, and the [one] Me myself receiving he receives the [One] having sent Me.
“Ndị niile nabatara unu na-anabata m. Mgbe ha nabatara m, ọ bụkwa Onye ahụ zitere m ka ha na-anabata.
41 The [one] receiving a prophet in [the] name of a prophet [the] reward of a prophet will receive, and the [one] receiving a righteous [man] in [the] name of a righteous [man] [the] reward of a righteous [man] will receive.
Ọ bụrụ na unu anabata onye amụma nʼihi na ọ bụ onye amụma, unu na onye amụma ahụ ga-enwekọ otu ụgwọ ọrụ. Ọ bụrụkwa na unu anabata onye ezi omume nʼihi ezi omume ya, unu ga-esorokwa ya nata ụgwọ ọrụ nke onye ezi omume.
42 And who[ever] (maybe *N(k)O*) shall give to drink to one of the little ones of these a cup of cold [water] only in [the] name of a disciple, Amen I say to you; certainly not shall he lose the reward of him.
Ọ bụrụ na onye ọbụla ekunye otu nʼime ndị a na-eso ụzọ m mmiri oyi ka ọ ṅụọ, nʼihi na ọ bụ onye na-eso ụzọ m, nʼezie, asị m unu, ọ ghaghị ịnata ụgwọ ọrụ ya.”
