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.
Unsiekhi guula uYesu alutile akhageenda mufjalo ya vanu ielinchuva ilya sabato. Avankhongi va mwene vale nienjala pwu valiekhudenya isoncho ncha nganu valiekhusegheya mu mavokho valiekhulya.
2 But when the Pharisees saw that, they said to Jesus, “See, your disciples do what is unlawful to do on the Sabbath.”
Avafalisayo vuvaloliele ewo, vakhambula uYesu vakhata “Ulole avankongi vakho vanangile ululagielo vivombo inchusanchinogiewa ukhumba ilinchuva ilya Sabato.”
3 But Jesus said to them, “Have you never read what David did, when he was hungry, and the men who were with him?
Pwu uYesu akhavavula akhata, “Samwiembile inchu uDaudi avombile unsienkhe uuguale nie njala, na vanu vamwene uvuale nawo?
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.
Vwuingile munyumba iya Nguluve alikhulya ikhisyesye, khikyo sakyale kyakhula na vanu uvuale nawo, kyale kyankhula avate nkhenchi vene?
5 Have you not read in the law that on the Sabbath the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath but are guiltless?
Khange samwimbile ululagielo ukhuta avatekhendu mugaati muntembile vikhuyibeda ei Sabato, ulwa khuva valievuvule uvuvivi?
6 But I say to you that one greater than the temple is here.
Pwu nikhuva vula umwe ikhuta umbaha ukhulutielila ietembile pwale aapha.
7 If you had known what this meant, 'I desire mercy and not sacrifice,' you would not have condemned the guiltless.
Mwale mulumanye eile khikhuta khikhi; une nilondo iekhisa sahielonda iefyakhusa; samukhale munkhuvahiga vavo valie vuvule ienongwa,
8 For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.”
Ulwa khuva umwana va Adamu veimwene inkhuludeva va Sabato.”
9 Then Jesus left from there and went into their synagogue.
U Yesu pwankhahega pala akhaluta muntembile yavene.
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.
Lola pwu ale umunu uvyaposile inkhivokho. Pwu vankhambuncha uYesu vankhata, “Ndayiva lweli unkhumponia umunu eilinchuva ilya Sabato?” Valiekhunogwa ukhusitakha ukhuta avombile imbivi.
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?
U Yesu ankhavavula, “Veni umunu yuywa angave nie ng'osi yiengile ndiguli eilinchuva ilya Sabato, sakhawesye ukwingile mugaati ndiguli mukhuyihumya na makha eing'osi mundieguli?
12 How much more valuable, then, is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.”
Khiliekhu iekhienunu ukhulutielila khuo ng'osi! Pwu yiva lweli ukhumba inonu ielinchuva ilya Sabato.”
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.
wu akhambula umunu unla akhata, “Husya iekhievokho kyakho” Akhahusya iekheivokho nkhapona khinkha khwanana niekhieniena.
14 But the Pharisees went out and plotted against him. They were seeking how they might put him to death.
Avafalisayo vankhahuma nkhunji ankhanchovana vankhidihana umwakhumbudiela pwu vankhahuma khunji vuvikhwidihana ukhubuda.
15 As Jesus perceived this, he withdrew from there. Many people followed him, and he healed them all.
U Yesu wanchimanyile ienchi ankhahuma ankhahega apo. Pwu avanu avingi vavo vankonga, ankhavaponia voni.
16 He commanded them not to make him known to others,
Ankhabencha unkhuta valenkhage ukhuvavula avanu ynkhuta umwene vyavaponninche.
17 that it might come true, what had been said through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
Ukhuta linkhongane nielivanchovile unyamalago u Isaya, ukhuta,
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.
Mulolage umbombi vango uvieniegaanile une muugaati munumbula yango niengaaniele. Nivieka inumbula yango muugaati mumwene, unkhuta avavulaghe avanyampaji uvuhiegi.
19 He will not strive nor cry aloud; neither will anyone hear his voice in the streets.
Salatabeikha hange nukhuliela na mankha; hange asikhuli uyakhiva ipuliekha iliemenyu lyamwene munjila.
20 He will not break any bruised reed; he will not quench any smoking flax, until he leads justice to victory,
Saladeenya aligugu alepunuikhe; salanchimya ikhiesikhi eikhihumya eilyosi, ukhuduga uvuhiegi ukhuwesya.
21 and in his name the Gentiles will have certain hope.”
Avanyapanji pwu vivinchaga va nuhuvila munditawa ilyamwene.
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.
Pwu vankhandetela umunu uvyabifwile amiho ububu, unyaniepo imbivi khwa Yesu. Unkhuta anjaviele akhanjaviela akhapona, umunu ula akhapona ankhalola nunkhuchova.
23 All the crowds were amazed and said, “Can this man be the Son of David?”
Avanu aviingi voni valienkhudegha nu nkhunchova, unkhuta “Uyu samwana va 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.”
Avafalisayo vuvapuliekhe ienkhiedego iekhi, vakhata, “'Umunu uyu sihencha imepo imbivi khumakha agha mwene yuywa iekhencha khumankha aga Belzebuli, umbaha va mepo.
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.
“U Yesu aghamanyiele amasago gavene akhavavula akhata, “'Inkhilunga nkhingasambunkhilanile kyene khinangienkha, uvujeenge uwa nyumba vungalekhehane vuwa savukhieme.
26 If Satan drives out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?
Iengave Usetano inkhung'encha Usetano uniene, pwu iva inkheihambula yuywa mumbwumi uwamwene.
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.
Khunjiela yieliekhu uvutwa uwa mwene vuliemiekhiwa? Inave ihencha imepo imbivi khumakha aga Belizabuli, avankongi avanwene pwu vihumya khunjila yieliekhu? Khulugendo ulu valavavalamuli.
28 But if I drive out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.
Inave iehencha iemepo imbivi khumakha aga a Mepo uva Nguluve, uludeva ulwakhukyanya lwiva lwinchile khulyumwe.
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.
Umunu ikwingila ndakhiekhi munyumba yamunu unyamakha nukhuhiencha, vusankhungile umunu unyamakha? Pwi weesya ukhuhiencha ifinu munyumba.
30 The one who is not with me is against me, and the one who does not gather with me scatters.
Umunu uvieavenchaga yuywa salielipupaninie nune pwu iva alivuunge nune, hange uviesilundamania nune uywa vieihasania. (itaga)
31 Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven.
Pwu nienchova nkhulyumwe, eimbivi eiyavienchaga nulubedo avanu visyiekhiliwagwa, pwu ukhumbeda uMepo umbalanche uywa salasyiekhiliwa.
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)
Uvieavinchaga uvieinchova eilimenyu vunge nu mwana va Adamu, ielyo lisyiekhiliwa. Hange uviavenchaga uvieinchova vunge khu Mepo umbalanche, uywa salasyiekhiliwa mukhilunga iekhi, na khikhilunga ikhikyuncha. (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.
Pwu uvombe umbinki ukhuva guuve ni nsenkhe inonu, apange unange uguu nange umbinkhi ugwa sekhe na nchisekhe ncha yene, ulwa khuva umbinkhi gwumanyiekhikha nisenkhe ncha yene.
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.
Umwe mwivaholilwa va njonkha, umwe mulievavivi, ndamuwesya ukhunchova imbombo inonu? Ulwa khuva undomo gwinchova inchihuma munumbula yamunu.
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.
Umunu unonu munumbula yamwene inchueivikhile inchova inonu, numunu umbivi munumbula yamwene inchova imbivi inchuiviekhile.
36 I say to you that in the day of judgment people will give an account for every idle word they will have said.
Lino pwu ninkhuvavula ukhuta khila limenyu ilyuinchova umunu lya lahomya eimbalilo ilinchuva eilyavuhieghi.
37 For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”
Ulwa khuva khumamenyu ghankho ulavalieliwa imbalielo khuvuyilweli wa mamenyu ghako ulahiegiewa.”
38 Then certain scribes and Pharisees answered Jesus and said, “Teacher, we wish to see a sign from you.”
Pwu avanklani na Vafalisayo vakhamwa khwa Yesu vakhata “Imanyisi, twinogwa twale tulole iekhimanyielo ukhuhuma khulwuve.”
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.
Hange uYesu akhamula nu khuvavula, “Uvuholwa uvuvivi ikya vuliigu khilondo eikhimanyielo. Khisikhuli inkhiemanyilo eikyakhiva khihumila khuvene khumbe ikhiemanyilo ikya Yona unyamalago.
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.
Nduvu unyamalago uYona atamile mulitumbu eilya somba eimbaha amanchuva ghaatadatu pamusi na pakhilo, vule vule umwana va Adamu wayiva mughati munumbula ya nkhilunga khumanchuva ghadatu pamusi na pankhilo.
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.
Avanu avakhu Ninawi valiema pavulongolo pavuhieghi pwu paninie na vaholwa avalieno ava. Ulwa khuva vavombile imbivi vakhapela wie lumbiliela u Yona, ulwa khuva khwale apa umunu umbaha ukhulutielila khwa 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.
Unkhuludeva undala uvakhusikha alatogha pwu paninie khuvuhieghi na vanu avakhivumbukho iekhi nukhukhihiega ukhuta valie nimbivi. Ulwa khuva umwene akhumile uluvafu ulwa khuvusilielo wa nkhilunga ukhwincha khupuliehiencha uluhala ulwa Selemani, lola apa pwale umunu umbaha uvalutielile khwa 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.
Vui imepo imbivi vunchi huma khumunu, nchihumili apoonu upwu ghasipali amaghasi vughilonda apakhughataluka, humbe pasipali.
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.
Pwu nchita, 'nighodonkha khukhaya ukhuniehumile khunyumba yango iyounihumile.' Vuikhilivukha pwivona inyumba iela yiekhuniwe yieviekhiwe vunonu.
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.”
Pwu iluuta inchikhunchi ghegha inchinghe imepo imbivi saba imbivi ukhulutielila khumwene, pwu nchikhwicha nchitamaga numwene upwa lyiepo. Umwakhavelile pakhusila pwu iva pavuvivi huba pavutengulielo. Vuyakhieva khiva ikhievumbukho ikhie eikhivivi.
46 While Jesus was still speaking to the crowds, behold, his mother and his brothers stood outside, seeking to speak to him.
U Yesu vuinchova na vanu avinghi, uvanina navalukhololwe vaeimile khunji, valiekhunogwa ukhunchova nave.
47 Someone said to him, “Look, your mother and your brothers stand outside, seeking to speak to you.”
Umunu yumo akhaluta akhambula, “Akha ujyuva vako navalukhololwo veimile panchi, vinkhukhulonda vinogwa ukhunchova nuve”.
48 But Jesus answered and said to him who told him, “Who is my mother and who are my brothers?”
Akhamula akhata uvyambulile ujyuva vango veini? na valukholo lwango veini?”
49 Then he stretched out his hand toward his disciples and said, “See, here are my mother and my brothers!
Umwene akhinula iekhievokha kya mwene khuvakhongi vamwene akhanchova, “Lola, uyou vie jyuva vango navalunkholo lwango!
50 For whoever does the will of my Father who is in heaven, that person is my brother, and sister, and mother.”
Ulwa khuva umunu uvieivombo uwieghane wa Dada vango vuuakhukyanya, umunu uyou vilukholo lwango, ving'anchavango hange vijyuva vango”.
