Luke 20
1 And on one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and preaching, the chief priests and Scribes, with the Elders, came upon him,
Zvino zvakaitika parimwe remazuva iwayo, achidzidzisa vanhu mutembere nekuparidza evhangeri, vapristi vakuru nevanyori vakasvika nevakuru,
2 and said to him: Tell us, by what authority thou doest these things? And who is it, that gave thee this authority?
ndokutaura kwaari vachiti: Tiudzei, munoita zvinhu izvi nesimba ripi, kana ndiani iye wakakupai simba iri?
3 Jesus answered, and said to them: I also will ask you a word, and tell ye me.
Zvino wakapindura akati kwavari: Ini ndichakubvunzaiwo shoko rimwe; uye mundiudze:
4 The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men?
Rubhabhatidzo rwaJohwani rwakabva kudenga, kana kuvanhu?
5 And they reasoned with themselves, and said: If we say, From heaven; he will say to us, And why did ye not believe him?
Zvino vakarangana, vachiti: Kana tikati: Kudenga; achati: Naizvozvo makaregerei kumutenda?
6 But if we say, From men; all the people will stone us; for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.
Asi kana tikati: Kuvanhu; vanhu vese vachatitaka nemabwe; nokuti vaiva nechokwadi kuti Johwani waiva muporofita.
7 And they said to him: We do not know, whence it was.
Vakapindura, vachiti havazivi kwarwakabva.
8 Jesus said to them: Neither do I tell you, by what authority I do these things.
Jesu ndokuti kwavari: Neni handikuudzii kuti ndinoita zvinhu izvi nesimba ripi.
9 And he began to utter this similitude to the people: A certain man planted a vineyard, and leased it to cultivators, and went abroad for a long time.
Zvino wakatanga kuudza vanhu mufananidzo uyu: Umwe munhu wakasima munda wemizambiringa, akauhaisa kuvarimi, akaenda parwendo nguva refu;
10 And in time, he sent his servant to the cultivators, that they might give him of the fruits of the vineyard. But the cultivators beat him, and sent him away empty.
zvino nenguva yakafanira wakatuma muranda kuvarimi, kuti vamupe zvechibereko chemunda wemizambiringa; asi varimi vakamurova, vakamuendesa asina chinhu.
11 And again he sent another servant; and him also they beat, and treated with rudeness, and sent empty away.
Zvino wakatumazve umwe muranda; naiye vakamurovawo vakamunyadzisa, vakamuendesa asina chinhu.
12 And again he sent the third. And they wounded him, and cast him out.
Zvino wakatumazve wechitatu; uyuwo ndokumukuvadza, vakamukandira kunze.
13 The lord of the vineyard said: What shall I do? I will send my dear son. Perhaps they will look upon him, and be ashamed.
Zvino mwene wemunda wemizambiringa wakati: Ndichaitei? Ndichatuma mwanakomana wangu anodikanwa, zvimwe vakaona iye vachamukudza.
14 But when the cultivators saw him, they reasoned with themselves, and said: This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.
Asi varimi vakati vachimuona vakarangana, vachiti: Uyu ndiye mugari wenhaka; uyai, ngatimuuraye, kuti nhaka igova yedu.
15 And they cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
Vakamukandira kunze kwemunda wemizambiringa, vakamuuraya. Naizvozvo mwene wemunda wemizambiringa achavaitirei?
16 He will come, and destroy those cultivators, and will lease the vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said: This shall not be.
Achauya, ndokuparadza varimi ivava, agopa munda wemizambiringa vamwe. Zvino vachinzwa, vakati: Zvisadaro!
17 And he looked upon them, and said: What is that which is written, The stone, which the builders rejected, is become the chief corner stone?
Asi wakavatarisa, akati: Naizvozvo chii ichi chakanyorwa, chinoti: Ibwe vavaki ravakaramba, ndiro rava musoro wekona?
18 And whoever shall fall upon this stone, will be broken; and on whomsoever it shall fall, it will crush him in pieces.
Wese anowira pamusoro pebwe iro, achavhuniwa-vhuniwa; asi ani nani warinowira pamusoro richamukuya.
19 And the chief priests and Scribes sought to lay hands on him, at that time; but they were afraid of the people; for they knew, that he spoke this similitude against them.
Zvino vapristi vakuru nevanyori neawa iroro vakatsvaka kuisa maoko paari, asi vakatya vanhu; nokuti vakaziva kuti wakareva mufananidzo uyu akanangana navo.
20 And they sent to him spies, who feigned themselves righteous men, that they might insnare him in discourse, and deliver him up to a court, and to the authority of the president.
Vakamucherekedza, vakatumira vashori vakanyepedzera kuva vakarurama, kuti vamubate pakutaura, kuti vamukumikidze kuushe nesimba remutungamiriri.
21 And they questioned him, and said to him: Teacher, we know that thou speakest and teachest correctly, and hast no respect of persons, but teachest the way of God in truth.
Zvino vakamubvunza, vachiti: Mudzidzisi, tinoziva kuti munotaura nekudzidzisa zvakarurama, uye hamugamuchiri chiso, asi munodzidzisa nzira yaMwari muchokwadi.
22 Is it lawful for us to pay head-money to Caesar, or not?
Zviri pamutemo here kwatiri kupa mutero kuna Kesari, kana kwete?
23 But he perceived their craftiness, and said: Why tempt ye me?
Asi wakaziva unyengeri hwavo, akati kwavari: Munondiidzirei?
24 Show me a denarius. Whose is this image and superscription upon it? They said to him, Caesar's.
Ndiratidzei dhenario; rine mufananidzo nerunyoro rwaani? Vakapindura vakati: ZvaKesari.
25 Jesus said to them: Then, give to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's.
Ndokuti kwavari: Naizvozvo dzorerai kuna Kesari zvinhu zvaKesari, nekuna Mwari zvinhu zvaMwari.
26 And they could not catch from him a word of accusation before the people: and they were surprised at his answers, and were silent.
Vakakoniwa kumubata neshoko rake pamberi pevanhu; vakashamisika nemhinduro yake; vakanyarara.
27 And some of the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came and questioned him,
Zvino kwakaswedera vamwe veVaSadhusi, vanoramba kuti kune kumuka, ndokumubvunza,
28 and said to him: Teacher, Moses wrote to us, that if a man's brother die, who had a wife without children, his surviving brother shall take his wife, and raise up seed to his deceased brother.
vachiti: Mudzidzisi, Mozisi wakatinyorera kuti: Kana mukoma wemunhu akafa ane mukadzi, asi iye akafa asina vana, munin'ina wake atore mukadzi, amutsire mukoma wake mbeu.
29 Now, there were seven brothers; and the first took a wife, and died without children.
Naizvozvo kwakange kune vanakomana vemunhu umwe vanomwe; wekutanga ndokutora mukadzi, akafa asina mwana;
30 And the second took her to wife; and he died without children.
newechipiri akatora mukadzi uyo, neuyu akafa asina mwana;
31 And again, the third took her, and in like manner also all the seven; and they died, and left no children.
newechitatu akamutora. Zvikadarowo nevanomwe, uye vakasasiya vana, vakafa.
32 At last, the woman likewise died.
Pakupedzisira kwavo vese mukadzi wakafawo.
33 In the resurrection, therefore, of which of them will she be the wife, for the seven took her?
Naizvozvo pakumuka, achava mukadzi waani kwavari? Nokuti vanomwe vakava naye semukadzi.
34 Jesus said to them: The children of this world take wives, and wives are given to husbands. (aiōn g165)
Zvino Jesu wakapindura akati kwavari: Vana venyika ino vanowana, vanowaniswa; (aiōn g165)
35 But they who are worthy of that world, and of the resurrection from the dead, do not take wives, nor are wives given to husbands. (aiōn g165)
asi avo vachanzi vakafanira kuwana nyika iyo nekumuka kubva kuvakafa havawani kana kuwaniswa; (aiōn g165)
36 Neither can they die any more; for they are as the angels, and are the children of God, because they are children of the resurrection.
nokuti havagoni kufazve; nokuti vakaita sevatumwa, uye vanakomana vaMwari, vari vanakomana vekumuka.
37 But that the dead will arise, even Moses showed; for, at the bush, he maketh mention, while he saith: The Lord, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
Asi kuti vakafa vanomutswa, kunyange Mozisi wakaratidza pagwenzi reminzwa, paakaidza Ishe Mwari waAbhurahama, naMwari waIsaka, naMwari waJakobho.
38 Now God is not the God of the dead, but of the living; for they all live to him.
Nokuti haasi Mwari wevakafa, asi wevapenyu; nokuti vese vanoraramira iye.
39 And some of the Scribes answered, and said to him: Teacher, thou hast spoken well.
Zvino vamwe vevanyori vakapindura vakati: Mudzidzisi, mataura zvakanaka.
40 And they did not again venture to question him, on any matter.
Uye havana kuzoshinga kumubvunzazve chinhu.
41 And he said also to them: How do the Scribes say of Messiah, that he is the son of David?
Zvino wakati kwavari: Vanoreva sei kuti Kristu Mwanakomana waDavhidhi?
42 And David himself said, in the book of Psalms: The Lord said to my Lord, seat thyself at my right hand,
Nokuti Dhavhidhi pachake wakareva mubhuku reMapisarema achiti: Ishe wakati kuna Ishe wangu: Gara kuruoko rwangu rwerudyi,
43 until I shall place thy foes under thy feet.
kusvikira ndaita vavengi vako chitsiko chetsoka dzako.
44 If David, therefore, called him, My Lord; how is he his son?
Naizvozvo Dhavhidhi anomuidza Ishe, ko Mwanakomana wake sei?
45 And while all the people heard, he said to his disciples:
Zvino vanhu vese vachakateerera, wakati kuvadzidzi vake:
46 Beware of the Scribes, who choose to walk in long robes, and love a salutation in the streets, and the chief seats in the synagogues, and the chief couches at suppers:
Chenjerai vanyori, vanoda kufamba nenguvo refu, uye vanoda kwaziso pamisika, nezvigaro zvepamusorosa mumasinagoge, nezvigaro zvemberi pazvirairo;
47 who eat up the houses of widows, under pretence that they prolong their prayers. They will receive a greater condemnation.
vanodya dzimba dzechirikadzi, vanonyepedzera nekuita minyengetero mirefu; ivavo vachagamuchira mutongo mukuru.
