Matthew 22
1 And Jesus answered and spoke to them again by parables, and said,
U Yesu akavavuula kange avavaha va vatekesi na vagoyo va Vayahudi ifihwanikisio, ifingi akati,
2 The kingdom of heaven is like a certain king, who made a marriage for his son,
“Uvutwa vwa kukyanya vuhwaniine nu ntwa jumonga juno alyaling'hanisie uvutolani vwa mwanaake.
3 And sent his servants to call them that were invited to the wedding: and they would not come.
Untwa jula akavasung'ha avavombi vaake kukuvakemeela vano alyakutile kuuti viise kuvutolani, neke aveene vakakaana kuluta.
4 Again, he sent other servants, saying, Tell them who are invited, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come to the marriage.
Untwa juula pe akasung'ha kange avavombi avange akavavuula akati,”Lutagha ku vano nikakutile uvutolani muvavuule kuuti, Lolagha, Niling'hanisie ifiinu fyoni ifya vutolani. Nibudile ing'hambako ni ndama sango sino sineniipe fiijo. Mwise kuvutolani.”
5 But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise:
Neke aveene navakavikila mwojo. vakaluta ku mbombo saave, jumonga akaluta kumughunga ghwake, ujunge akaluta kughusia ifiinu fyake.
6 And the remnant took his servants, and treated them spitefully, and slew them.
Avange vano valyakemelilue vakavakola avavombi vala vakavatova kyongo na kukuvabuda.
7 But when the king heard of it, he was angry: and he sent his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.
Untwa jula ye apulike sino sivombike ku vavombi vaake akakalala, Akasung'ha avasikali vaake kuluta kukuvabuda avabudi vala na kunyaanya lwoni ilikaaja lyave.
8 Then he saith to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they who were invited were not worthy.
Pe akavavuula avavombi vaake akati,”Uluo lwa vutolani luling'hanisivue, neke vano nikakutile uvutolani navanoghiile kange kukwisa ku vutolani.
9 Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, invite to the marriage.
Lino lutagha mu mapuulo, muvavuule avaanhu vooni vano mutang'hana navo kuuti viise ku vutolani.”
10 So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.
Avavombi vala vakaluta mu masevo na mu mapuulo vakavakemeela na kukuvaleeta avaanhu vooni vano vakava vitan'ghana, navo avanofu na vahosi, Avaanhu vinga vakiisa vakamema mu nyumba ija vutolani.
11 And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man who had not a wedding garment:
Neke untwa jula ye ikwingila mu nyumba jila kuuti, alole avahesia, vaake akamwagha umuunhu jumonga naafwalile umwenda ghuno ghunoghile mu vutolani!
12 And he saith to him, Friend, how camest thou in here not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
Akamposia akati,'Nyalukolo, lwandani ghwingile muno kisila kuuva nu mwenda ghuno ghunoghiile mu vutolani? Umuunhu jula akakunua ikya kujova.
13 Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Pepeno untwa jula akavavuula avavombi vaake akati,”Nkunge umuunhu uju amaghulu na mavoko muntaaghe kunji ku ng'hiisi, ukuo ililagha na kugwegwenula amiino vwimila uvuvafi uvukome vuno alinavwo.
14 For many are called, but few are chosen.
U Yesu pe akavuula akati, Vano vakemelilue, nu Nguluve kukwingila mu vutwa vwake vinga neke avasalulua vadebe.”
15 Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle him in his talk.
Pambele a Vafalisayi vakavuuka pala vakaluta kupuling'hana vwimila ikiteghe ikya kunkola u Yesu mu masio ghaake.
16 And they sent out to him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that thou art true, and teachest the way of God in truth, neither carest thou for any man: for thou regardest not the person of men.
Pe akasung'ha kwa Yesu avavulanisivua vaave palikimobna vavingiliili va ntwa u Herode. Avavulanisivua vala vakamposia vakati,”Ghwe Mb'ulanisi, tukagwile kuuti uve ulimuunhu ghwa kyang'haani ghuvulanisia mu vwakyang'haani sino ilonda u Nguluve. Kange naghukwoghopa nambe muunhu vwimila uvuvaha vwaake.
17 Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?
Lino tuvuule, ghuvona ndaani indaghilo sa Moose sikwitikisia kusonga isongo kwa Kaisali?”
18 But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye me, ye hypocrites?
Neke u Yesu akakagula amasaghe ghaave amaviivi akavamula akati,”Mwe vakedusi umue kiki mukungela?
19 Show me the tribute money. And they brought to him a penny.
Muhufie ihela jino mwa musonga isongo.”Vakamuletela idinali jimo.
20 And he saith to them, Whose is this image and superscription?
Akavaposia akati,”Ikihwani nu vulembe fino fili mu hela iji fyani?”
21 They say to him, Caesar’s. Then saith he to them, Render therefore to Caesar the things which are Caesar’s; and to God the things that are God’s.
Vakamwamula vakati,”Fya Kaisali.”Pepano u Yesu akavavuula akati,”Ifya Kaisali mumpelaghe uKaisali ifya Nguluve mumpelaghe u Nguluve.”
22 When they had heard these words, they marvelled, and left him, and departed.
Ye vapulike ulwamulo lwa Yesu vakadegha kyongo. Vakamuleka pala vakavuuka viluta.
23 The same day came to him the Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection, and asked him,
Ikighono kilakila aVasadukayi vamonga vakaluta kwa Yesu, A Vasadukayi kye kipugha mu lwitiko lwa Kiyahudi vano viiti nakwelule ulusyukolwa vafue. Vakamposia vakati,
24 Saying, Master, Moses said, If a man dies, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.
Ghwe M'bulanisi, u Moose alyalembile ululaghilo kuuti nave umuunhu afwile kisila mwana, unnine anoghile kuhaala umfwile jula kuuti ampapile avaana anyakusila.
25 Now there were with us seven brothers: and the first, when he had married a wife, died, and, having no issue, left his wife to his brother:
Lino kwevalyale avanamuunhu lekelalubale. Ughwa kwanda akatoola un'dala akafua kisila kuleka mwana. Ughwa vuvili akamhaala umfwile jula.
26 Likewise the second also, and the third, to the seventh.
Ghwope akafua kisila kuleka mwana Ghwoope ughwa vutatu lukavombeka vulevule kuhanga kufika ughwa lekela lubale.
27 And last of all the woman died also.
Pambele, ghwoope un'dala umfwile jula akafua.
28 Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her.
Lino ikighono ikya kusyuka avaanhu vooni umfwile jula iliiva n'dala ghwani mu vala lekelalubale? Ulwakuuva vooni valyantolile.”
29 Jesus answered and said to them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.
U Yesu akamula akati,”Musova, ulwakuva namukagwile aMalembe aMimike nambe ingufu sa Nguluve.
30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.
Ulwakuuva avafue valaava visyuka, nakwekulaava kutoola nambe kutolua. viliiva ndavule avanyamola ava kukyanya.
31 But as concerning the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken to you by God, saying,
Neke vwimila kusyuka avafue namwimbile mu Malembe aMimike sino u Nguluve alyavavulile avakuulu viinu kuuti,
32 I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.
Une neene Nguluve ghwa Abulahamu, Nguluve ghwa Isaka, Nguluve ghwa Yakovo? u Yesu akavavuula kange kuuti u Nguluve na Nguluve ghwa vafue looli Nguluve ghwa vuumi.”
33 And when the multitude heard this, they were astonished at his doctrine.
Avaanhu mu mapugha ghala ye apulike imbulanisio saake vakadegha kyongo.
34 But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together about him.
A Vafalisayi ye vapulike kuuti u Yesu avamwile a Vasadukayi, kuhanga vakunilue ikya kujova vakakong'haana palikimo vakaluta kwa Yesu.
35 Then one of them, who was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,
Um'bulanisi jumonga ughwa ndaghilo sa Moose mu Vafalisayi vala akamughela u Yesu akamposia akati.
36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
“Ghwe M'bulanisi ululaghilo luliku luno luvaha kukila indaghilo sooni?”
37 Jesus said to him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
U Yesu akamwamula akati,”Umughanaghe u Mutwa u Nguluve ghwako nu mwojo ghwako, ghwoni ni ngufu saako sooni nu luhala lwako lwoni.
38 This is the first and great commandment.
Ulu lwe lulaghilo uluvaha kange lwe lwa kwanda.
39 And the second is like it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Ululaghilo ulwa vuvili luno luling'hiine nu lwa kwanda lwe ulu, Umughanaghe unnino ndavule ghukughana juuve.
40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
Indaghilo sooni isa Moose ni mbulanisio isa vavili sihuma mu ndaghilo isi ivili.”
41 While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them,
A Vafalisayi ye vajiighe vakong'hanile palikimo u Yesu akavaposia akati.
42 Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say to him, The Son of David.
Asi, mwiti kiki vwimila u Kilisite? Mwiti mwana ghwani? Vakamwamula vakati,”Mwana ghwa David.”
43 He saith to them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying,
U Yesu akavaposia akati,”Nave fye lulivuo lwandani u Davidi ye alongosivue nu Mhepo ghwaNguluve ikuntambula u Kilisite Mutwa Pano iiti,
44 The LORD said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thy enemies thy footstool?
'U Mutwa u Nguluve alyam'bulile u Mutwa ghwango,”Uuve nubvutavulilua palikimo nune kuhanga nikutange avaleme avalugu vaako uvateme.”'?”
45 If David then calleth him Lord, how is he his son?
Lino nave u Davidi ikuntambula u Kilisite iiti, “Mutwa,”lwandani uKilisite iiva mwanaake?”
46 And no man was able to answer him a word, neither dared any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.
Nakwealyale umuunhu juno akaghela kukwamula ilisio, kuhuma unsiki ughuo nalyangiile kukumposia kange.
