< Matthew 16 >
1 [Some] Pharisees and Sadducees came to [Jesus] and asked him [to perform] a miracle that would prove [that] [had sent him].
Amafalisayo na Masadukayo bhamwenzeye na hunenje u Yesu abhalolesye iishara yifuma humwanya.
2 He answered them, “[In this country], in the evening you say, ‘[It will be] good weather [tomorrow], because the sky is red.’
Ila u Yesu abhajibule na hubhawozye aje “Nkayabha lyabhela muyanga aje ihali yihewa nyinza, afwatanaje ianga lishamamu.
3 [Early] in the morning [you say], ‘It will be stormy weather today, because the sky is red, and dark clouds have formed.’ You understand how to predict [the weather by looking at the sky], but you cannot [seem to look at what is happening] now, [and by that] understand [what God is doing].
Ni shapwi muyanga ihali yihewa yilelo saganyinza afwatanaje ianga lishamamu na mabhengo galigubishe ianga lyonti, mumenye afasiri uloleho wianga, ila sagamuwezya afasiri iishara zimusala.
4 [You] evil people have seen me [perform miracles] but you do not faithfully worship God [MET]. You want to see [me perform] a miracle [that would prove that God has sent me]. But [God] will [enable you to see] only one miracle. It will be [like] what happened [MET] to Jonah, [the prophet, who was inside a huge fish for three days and then came out of it to live again].” Then Jesus left them and sailed away, [along with us disciples].
Ishizazi ishibhibhi nishi umalaya shiwhanza iishara ila nemo ishara yoyonti shashaipewa, ila ela ya Yona. Na tena u Yesu abhaleha nasogole ulwakwe.
5 [We] forgot to take bread when [we] sailed to another edge of [the lake].
Abhanafunzi bhenza uwupande wabhele, ila bhahewelwe aheje amabumunda.
6 [Then] Jesus said to us, “Beware [that you do not accept] the yeast [MET] that the Pharisees and Sadducees [distribute].”
U Yesu abhawozya “Shebhaji na mubhanje shinza nusafwe Wimafarisayo na Masadukayo.”
7 Then, [not realizing that he was speaking figuratively], [we] said to one another, “[He must have said that] because we forgot to bring any bread!”
Abhanafunzi bhayangana mwikundi lyawo na yanje. “Afwatanaje saga tahejile amabumunda.”
8 Because Jesus knew what [we were saying], he said [to us], “(I am disappointed that you are discussing among yourselves, [thinking] that [it was because] you did not bring any bread [that I talked about the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees]./Why are you discussing among yourselves thinking that it was because you did not bring any bread [that I talked about the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees]?) [RHQ] You believe only a little [what I am able to do for you].
U Yesu alimanya elyo nayanje, “Amwe mwelweteho udodo, yenu msebhele nayangane mkati yenyu nayanje aje kwasababu sagatahejile amabumunda?
9 (You should understand [that I can continue to do miracles to provide for what you need./] you not yet understand [that I can provide miraculously for you if you need food]?) [RHQ] Do you not remember that 5,000 [people ate when I multiplied the] five small loaves [and the two fish? And after everyone had enough to eat], you collected [twelve] baskets [of left-over pieces] [RHQ]!
Eshi bado sagamutambula wala saga mukomboha gala amabumunda gasanu hubhantu elfu zisanu nivitondo vilenga vyamwa wonganyenye?
10 [Do you not remember] [RHQ] [that] 4,000 [people ate when I multiplied the] seven small loaves [and a few fish]? And [after everyone had enough to eat], you collected [seven] large baskets [of left-over pieces]
Au amabumunda saba huabhantu elfu zene ni vitondo vielenga mwawonganyenye?
11 (You should have understood that I was not speaking about [real] bread [that contains yeast]./Why have you not understood that I was not speaking about [real] bread [that contains yeast?]) [RHQ] What I [was saying] was that you should [not accept what] the Pharisees and Sadducees [say, because it would affect you like] yeast [affects] [MET] [dough].”
Iliwele hata sagamuhelewa yabhe nalisigiyanganamwe pamwanya yimabumunda? Jitunzaji na shebhaji nu safwe Wimafarisayo na Masadukayo.”
12 Then we understood that he was not talking about the yeast that is [in] bread. Instead, [he was talking] about the [wrong] teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Tena bhamanya aje alisagayanga pamwanya yashebhe na mabumunda gagali nu safu ila ashebhe amamanyizyo gi Mafarisayo na Masadukayo.
13 When Jesus came with [us] disciples to the region near Caesarea Philippi [town], he asked us, “Who do people say that I, the one who came from heaven, [really] am?”
Isala u Yesu lwafishile sehemu zi Kaisaria yi Filipi, abhawozelezya abhanafunzi bhakwe, ayanga, “Abhantu bhayanga umwana wa muntu yu nanu?”
14 We answered, “Some [people say that you are] John the Baptizer, [who has come back to life again]. Others say [that you are the prophet] Elijah, [who has returned from heaven as God promised]. [Still] others [say that you are the prophet] Jeremiah or one of the [other] prophets [who lived long ago, who has come back to life again].”
Bhayanga, “bhamo bhayanga aje yu Yohana Umozi; bhamo, yu Eliya; na bhamo, yu Yeremia, au wiweka na kuwa.
15 Jesus said to us, “[What about] you? Who do you say that I am?”
Abhawozya, amwe muyiga ane ni nanu?
16 Simon Peter said to him, “You are the Messiah! You are the Son of the all-powerful God.”
Ajibu, Usimoni Petro ayanga, “Awe wa Klisiti wamwana wa Ngulubhi wali momi.”
17 Then Jesus said to him, “Simon, son of Jonah, [God] is pleased with you. What you just said was not [SYN] revealed to you by any human. Instead, [it was] my Father [who lives] in heaven [who revealed this to you].
U Yesu ajibu na humozye, “Usayiwilwe awe, Simoni Bar Yona, afwatanaji idanda ni nyama sagavyafunuliye eli, ila Ubaba wane wali humwanya.
18 I will also tell you this: You are Peter, [which means rock]. [You are like] a rock. What you [and your fellow apostles teach] (OR, [what] you [do]) [will be like a foundation on which I] will create congregations of people who [believe in] me. And the demons [PRS], [who live] where the dead people who lived evil lives are, will not be able to [come and] prevent [MET] [me from doing] that.” (Hadēs )
Nane tena ihuwozya aje awe wa Petro, na pamwanya yikhome ogu nayihulizenga ishi bhanza shane. Amalyango gawhilongo sagagayi hulishinda. (Hadēs )
19 [Then, speaking to all of us, he said], “I will enable you [(pl)] to have authority [MTY] over the groups of people over whose lives [God] rules. Whatever you forbid regarding those people [MTY], it will have been forbidden by God. Whatever you permit [MET] regarding them, it will have been permitted by God.”
Nayihupela awe infwungulo zi umwene wahumwanya. Shoshonti shawayishigalila panse shayibhashi galililwe humwanya, na shoshonti shawayihungula panse shayibha shuguliwilwe humwanya.”
20 Then Jesus warned [us] disciples strongly not to tell anyone [at that time] that he is the Messiah.
Tena u Yesu abhawozya abhanafunzi bhasamozye umuntu wowonti aje umwene ali yu Klisiti.
21 From that time Jesus began to teach [us] disciples that it was necessary for him to go to Jerusalem [city]. There the ruling elders, the chief priests, and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws would cause him to suffer and (be killed/die). Then on the third day [after that], he would become alive again.
Afume isala ezyo u Yesu ahandile hubhawozye abhanafunzi aje lazima abhale Huyerusalemu, ayembe humambo aminji hunyobhe zya zehe na abhagosi bhadimi na simbizi, agoywe na zyoshe isiku lya tatu.
22 [Because Peter assumed that the Messiah would not suffer and die], he took Jesus aside and began to rebuke him [for talking about suffering and dying]. He said, “Lord, may [God] never permit that to happen to you! That must certainly not happen!”
Tena u Petro amwega u Yesu hunshenje, nahukhalipile whayanje, “Ijambo eli nalibhe hutali nawe, ugosi, eli lisatokele huliwe.
23 Then Jesus turned [to look at] Peter, and he said to him, “Stop talking to me [like that] [MTY]! [Stop saying what] Satan [MET] [would say, and stop] trying to prevent [from happening what God has planned]! You are a hindrance to me, because you are not thinking like God thinks. Instead, [you are thinking] like people [think]!”
Ila u Yesu agewushe na humozye u Petro, “Wela whisalo lgane setano! awe ulishipingimizi huline, kwasabu sugusaga amambo ga Ngolobhi, ila amambo gabhanadamu.”
24 Then Jesus said to [us] disciples, “If any one [of you] wants to be my disciple, you must not do [only] what you yourself want [to do]. [You] must be willing to [let people hurt you and disgrace you. That is like what they do to criminals whom they force to] carry a cross [MET] [to the place where the criminals will be executed. That is what anyone who wants to] be my disciple [must do].
Tena u Yesu abhawozya abhanafunzi bhakwe, “Nkesho umuntu wowonti nkawanza hufwate ane, lazima ajikhane umene mwene, ayeje ikhobhehanyo lyakwe, na afwate.
25 [You must do that], because those who try to save their lives [by denying that they belong to me when people want to kill them for believing in me] will not live [eternally], but those who are killed [because of being my disciples] will live [with God eternally].
Afwatanaje wawhanza agokole amakhalo gakwe ayihugatezya, na whawowonti wahugatezya amakhalo gakwe kwa ajili yane ayihugokola.
26 People [might] get everything [they want] in this world, but ([if they do not become my disciples], they would really be gaining nothing [because] they would not get eternal life!/what would they gain [if they do not become my disciples and thus] do not get eternal life?) [RHQ] (There is absolutely nothing that people can give [to God] that would enable them to gain eternal life./What can people give [to God] that could enable them to gain eternal life?) [MTY, RHQ]
Eshi! Faida wele yayi huyipata umuntu nkapata ense yonti ila atezya amakhalo gakwe? Je! Ni kitu gani atakachotoa mtu katika kubadilishana na maisha yake?
27 [Listen carefully: I], the one who came from heaven, [will leave this earth, but] I will return, and the angels of heaven will accompany me. At that time I will have the glorious [radiance] that my Father has, and I will reward everyone according to what they did [when they were living on earth].
Alenganaje umwana wa Adamu ayinza katika utuntumu wa Baba wakwe. Nape ayihunipa kila mutnu alengane ni mbombo yakwe.
28 Listen carefully! Some of you who are here now will see [me], the one who came from heaven, when I return to rule. You will see this before you die!”
Lyoli imbawozya huli baadhi yenyu mu mweleye epa ambao sagabhayilenga ufwe hadi lwabhayihunola umwana wa Adamu lwayihenza katika umwene wakwe.
