Matthew 12
1 At that time Jesus went on the Sabbath day through the grainfields. His disciples were hungry and began to pluck heads of grain and eat them.
Kele katema ko Che Yesu ŵapitaga mmigunda ja ngano pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila. Nipele, ŵakulijiganya ŵao jakwete sala, ŵatandite kupulula masache ga ngano ni kulya.
2 But when the Pharisees saw that, they said to Jesus, “See, your disciples do what is unlawful to do on the Sabbath.”
Nambo Mafalisayo paŵaiweni yeleyo, ŵaasalile Che Yesu, “Nnole, ŵakulijiganya ŵenu akugapanganya gamakanye kugapanganya pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila.”
3 But Jesus said to them, “Have you never read what David did, when he was hungry, and the men who were with him?
Che Yesu ŵajanjile ŵanyawo kuti, “Uli nganinsyome iŵatite pakupanganya che Daudi pamo ni achinjakwe pajakwete sala?
4 He went into the house of God and ate the bread of the presence, which was unlawful for him to eat and unlawful for those who were with him, but lawful only for the priests.
Jwelejo jwajinjile mu Nyuumba ja Akunnungu, ŵajigele ni kulya mikate jijatyosyekwe kwa ligongo lya Akunnungu. Che Daudi ni achinjakwe nganasachilwa kulya ikaŵe ŵambopesi pe.
5 Have you not read in the law that on the Sabbath the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath but are guiltless?
Pane, uli ngannaŵe kusyoma mmalembelo ga Malajisyo ga Akunnungu gaŵapele che Musa kila Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila ŵambopesi akugatema Malajisyo pa nyuumba ja Akunnungu, nambo ngakuŵalanjilwa kuŵa aleŵile?
6 But I say to you that one greater than the temple is here.
Nipele, ngunsalila kuti apano apali jwaali jwankulu kujipunda Nyuumba ja Akunnungu.
7 If you had known what this meant, 'I desire mercy and not sacrifice,' you would not have condemned the guiltless.
Nambo nkagamanyilile malumbo gakwe aga maloŵe ga gaasasile Akunnungu, ‘Ngusaka chanasa ngaŵa mbopesi,’ ngankaalamule ŵandu ŵangali ni sambi.
8 For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.”
Pakuŵa Mwana jwa Mundu ali Ambuje ŵa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila.”
9 Then Jesus left from there and went into their synagogue.
Nipele, Che Yesu ŵatyosile pelepo, ŵajinjile mu nyuumba ja kupopelela.
10 Behold, there was a man who had a withered hand. The Pharisees asked Jesus, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?” so that they might accuse him of sinning.
Mwaliji ni mundu jumo jwali ni nkono wakutatala. Nipele, ŵandu ŵausisye Che Yesu, “Uli, ili yambone kunnamya mundu pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila?” Ŵambusisye yeleyo kuti akolanje ligongo lya kwaŵechetela.
11 Jesus said to them, “What man would there be among you, who, if he had just one sheep, and if this sheep fell into a deep hole on the Sabbath, would not grasp hold of it and lift it out?
Nambo Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Tujile jumo jwenu akwete ngondolo jimo, nombe najo jitumbuchile mwisimbo, uli, ana nganjenda kujikamula ni kujityosya pakuŵa lili Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila?
12 How much more valuable, then, is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.”
Nambo, mundu atopele kujipunda ngondolo! Nipele, ili yambone kupanganya yaili yambone pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila.”
13 Then Jesus said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out, and it was restored to health, just like the other hand.
Nipele, ŵansalile mundu jo kuti, “Ngolosye nkono wenu.” Ŵaugolwesye, nombe ni ŵalamile chisau nkono wine ula.
14 But the Pharisees went out and plotted against him. They were seeking how they might put him to death.
Nipele, Mafalisayo ŵatyosile paasa ni kuusyana ichajile pakwaulaga Che Yesu.
15 As Jesus perceived this, he withdrew from there. Many people followed him, and he healed them all.
Nambo Che Yesu paŵasimanyi ng'anisyo syao, ŵatyosile pepala. Ŵandu achajinji ŵakuiye ni ŵaalamisye ŵakulwala wose,
16 He commanded them not to make him known to others,
ŵakanyisye ngasiŵamanyisya ŵandu ngani syakwe,
17 that it might come true, what had been said through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
pakuti gamalile maloŵe gaŵechete jwakulondola che Isaya,
18 “See, my servant whom I have chosen; my beloved one, in whom my soul is well pleased. I will put my Spirit upon him, and he will proclaim justice to the Gentiles.
“Nnole, jwakutumichila jwangu junansagwile, jwakunonyelwa jwangu jwakuusengwasya nnope ntima wangu. Chinantaje Mbumu jwangu, nombejo chakaasalile ŵandu ŵa ilambo kulamula kwangu.
19 He will not strive nor cry aloud; neither will anyone hear his voice in the streets.
Ngasakola makani atamuno nganyanyisya, ni liloŵe lyao ngalipikanika mwitala.
20 He will not break any bruised reed; he will not quench any smoking flax, until he leads justice to victory,
Chapunde kwakolela chanasa ŵandu ŵakwete masauko ga kuputikwa kwa nnasi, ni kwakamulisya ntima ŵandu ŵangali machili, mpaka ulamusi waukusachilwa pachiukomboleswe kulamula.
21 and in his name the Gentiles will have certain hope.”
Ŵandu wose ŵa ilambo yose chakole chilolelo kwa jwelejo.”
22 Then someone blind and mute, possessed by a demon, was brought to Jesus. He healed him, with the result that the mute man spoke and saw.
Papopo ŵandu ŵannyichisye Che Yesu mundu jwangalola atamuno kuŵecheta kwa ligongo lya kukamulwa ni masoka. Nipele ŵannamisye jwangaŵecheta jo ni jwaŵechete ni kulola.
23 All the crowds were amazed and said, “Can this man be the Son of David?”
Mpingo wose wa ŵandu ŵasimosile ni ŵatite, “Jweleju ngati Mwana ju che Daudi?”
24 But when the Pharisees heard of this miracle, they said, “This man does not cast out demons except by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons.”
Nambo Mafalisayo paŵapilikene gelego, ŵatite, “Mundu ju akugakoposya masoka kwa machili ga Belesebuli jwankulu jwa masoka.”
25 But Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is made desolate, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.
Che Yesu ŵasimanyilile ng'anisyo syao, ŵaasalile, “Umwenye wauliwose waugaŵanyiche maunjili maunjili gagakumenyana, ngaukulonjela, yalumo peyo, musi pane ŵandu ŵa nyuumba jajilijose agaŵanyikaga maunjili maunjili gagakumenyana achinsyene pe, nyuumba jo ngajijima.
26 If Satan drives out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?
Iŵaga mpingo umo ukumenyana ni mpingo wine mu umwenye wa Shetani, malumbo gakwe umwenye wo ugaŵanyiche, nipele, chiujime chinauli?
27 And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons drive them out? For this reason they will be your judges.
Ŵanyamwe nkutinji une ngugakoposya masoka kwa machili ga Belesebuli, uli, ŵakulijiganya ŵenu akugakoposya kwa machili ga acheni? Kwa lye ligongo lyo ŵandu ŵakunkuya ni ŵachammechetele ŵanyamwe.
28 But if I drive out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.
Nambo iŵaga une ngugakoposya masoka kwa ukombole wa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu, pelepo mmanyilile kuti umwenye wa Akunnungu unnyichilile.
29 How can anyone enter the house of the strong man and steal his belongings without tying up the strong man first? Then he will steal his belongings from his house.
“Sooni mundu akukombola chinauli kwinjila mu nyuumba ja mundu jwali ni machili ni kunsumula chipanje chakwe, akanamtaŵe kaje mundu jwali ni machili jula? Pele ni pachapakombole kunsumula chipanje chakwe.
30 The one who is not with me is against me, and the one who does not gather with me scatters.
“Jwalijose jwanganaŵa pamo none, akunganila une ni jwangasonganganya ŵandu pamo none, akwapwilinganya.
31 Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven.
Kwa lye ligongo lyo ngunsalila, ŵandu chalecheleswe sambi ni liloŵe lyalili lyose lyakwatukana Akunnungu, nambo juchantukane Mbumu jwa Akunnungu jwelejo ngalecheleswa.
32 Whoever speaks any word against the Son of Man, that will be forgiven him. But whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, that will not be forgiven him, neither in this world, nor in that which is to come. (aiōn g165)
Ni jwalijose juchaŵechete liloŵe lya kunkanila Mwana jwa Mundu, chalecheleswe, nambo jwele juchaŵechete liloŵe lya kunkanila Mbumu jwa Akunnungu jo, ngalecheleswa, ngaŵa pa chilambo cha sambano chi atamuno pa chilambo chachikwika cho. (aiōn g165)
33 Make a tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree bad and its fruit bad, for a tree is recognized by its fruit.
“Chitela chambone chikusogola isogosi yambone ni chitela changalumbana chikusogola isogosi yangalumbana. Nipele chitela chikumanyika kwa isogosi yakwe.
34 You offspring of vipers, since you are evil, how can you say good things? For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
Ŵanyamwe uŵelesi wa majoka! Nkukombola chinauli kusala gambone mwasyene mwaŵaga ŵangalumbana? Pakuŵa mundu akuŵecheta agala gagagumbele mu ntima wakwe.
35 The good man from the good treasure of his heart produces what is good, and the evil man from the evil treasure of his heart produces what is evil.
Mundu jwambone akukoposya gambone mu ngokwe jakwe jambone, ni mundu jwangalumbana akukoposya gangalumbana mu ngokwe jakwe jangalumbana.
36 I say to you that in the day of judgment people will give an account for every idle word they will have said.
“Nipele, ngunsalila, lyuŵa lya kulamula ŵandu chasachilwe kwanga kwa liloŵe lyalili lyose lyangalumbana lyaŵaŵechete.
37 For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”
Pakuŵa kwa maloŵe genu gambone chachimmalanjila kuti ndi ŵambone paujo pa Akunnungu, ni kwa maloŵe genu gakusakala chinchilamulwa.”
38 Then certain scribes and Pharisees answered Jesus and said, “Teacher, we wish to see a sign from you.”
Nipele, ŵane ŵa ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ni Mafalisayo ŵaasalile Che Yesu kuti, “Jwakwiganya, tukusaka kulola chimanyisyo kutyochela kukwenu.”
39 But Jesus answered and said to them, “An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign. But no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah the prophet.
Nombejo ŵaajanjile, “Uŵelesi wangalumbana ni wangakulupilichika! Nkusakanga chimanyisyo, nambo ngampegwa chimanyisyo ikaŵe achila pe chimanyisyo cha che Yona jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu.
40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the stomach of the big fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
Pakuŵa mpela che Yona iŵatite pakutama moŵa gatatu muusi ni chilo mlutumbo lwa somba jajikulungwa, iyoyo Mwana jwa Mundu nombe ni ichajile pakutama mu lisi moŵa gatatu muusi ni chilo.
41 The men of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation of people and will condemn it. For they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and see, someone greater than Jonah is here.
Ŵandu ŵa ku Ninawi chakopochele katema kakulamula, nombewo chasale kuti au uŵelesi u wana magambo. Pakuŵa ŵandu ŵa ku Ninawi ŵalesile sambi syao kwa ligongo lya kulalichila ku che Yona, ni nnole, apano apali jwampundile che Yona!
42 The Queen of the South will rise up at the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them. She came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and see, someone greater than Solomon is here.
Mwenye jwankongwe jwa chilambo cha ku Sheba chakopochele katema au uŵelesi u pachiulamulikwe, nombe chasale kuti uŵelesi u wana magambo. Pakuŵa ŵelewo ŵaiche kutyochela kwakutalika, ŵaiche kukugapilikanila maloŵe ga lunda ga mwenye che Selemani, nambo pelepa kwana jwankulungwa kupunda mwenye che Selemani.
43 When an unclean spirit has gone away from a man, it passes through waterless places and looks for rest, but does not find it.
“Lisoka palikunkopoka mundu, likusyungula syungula mwipululu mwangali meesi lichisosaga pakupumulila, nambo lyalepelaga kupata,
44 Then it says, 'I will return to my house from which I came.' Having returned, it finds that house swept out and put in order.
pelepo ni likuti, ‘Chimujile ku nyuumba jangu akula kungopochele kula.’ Nambo palikuuja ni kujisimana nyuumba jila jili jangali chindu ni jepyajile ni jekolosye,
45 Then it goes and takes along with it seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they all come in to live there. Then the final condition of that man becomes worse than the first. It will be just like that with this evil generation.”
pele likwaula kukugajigala masoka gane saba gakusakala kupunda ŵelewo, gose gakwaula kukunjinjila jwele mundu jo. Ni jwele mundu jo akuŵa jwangalumbana nnope kupunda iŵaliji kundanda. Yeleyo ni ichijile pakutyochela kwa ŵandu ŵangalumbana.”
46 While Jesus was still speaking to the crowds, behold, his mother and his brothers stood outside, seeking to speak to him.
Che Yesu paŵaliji aninkwendelechela kukunguluka ni mipingo ja ŵandu, achikulu ŵao ni achalongo ajao ŵaiche ni kwima paasa, ŵasachile kunguluka nawo.
47 Someone said to him, “Look, your mother and your brothers stand outside, seeking to speak to you.”
Nipele, mundu jumo ŵaasalile Che Yesu kuti, “Achikulu ŵenu ni achalongo ajenu ajimi paasa, akusaka kuŵecheta nomwe.”
48 But Jesus answered and said to him who told him, “Who is my mother and who are my brothers?”
Nambo Che Yesu ŵanjanjile jwele mundu jo kuti, “Ŵaani achikulu ŵangu? Ni ŵaani achalongo ajangu?”
49 Then he stretched out his hand toward his disciples and said, “See, here are my mother and my brothers!
Che Yesu ŵanlanjile mundu jula ŵakulijiganya ŵao achitiji, “Ŵeleŵa ni ŵaali achikulu ŵangu ni achalongo achinjangu!
50 For whoever does the will of my Father who is in heaven, that person is my brother, and sister, and mother.”
Pakuŵa jwalijose jwakupanganya yakuisaka Atati ŵangu ŵa kwinani, jwelejo ni mpwanga ni mlumbwangu ni achikulu ŵangu.”
