Matthew 18
1 At the same time came the disciples to Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?
Isala zezyo zezyo abhanafunzi bhenza wha Yesu na humozye, “Yu nanu waligosi huwo mwene wa humwanya?”
2 And Jesus called a little child to him, and set him in the midst of them,
U Yesu akwizya umwana udodo, ameha pakasi yawo,
3 And said, Verily I say to you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
na yanje, “Lyoli ihumbawozya, nkagamtubu na bhe hansi abhana abhadodo sagamwayiweza hawhinjile huwomwene wa Ngolobhi.
4 Whoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
Nesho wowonti wawhiha hansi umwana udodo, umuntu hansi oyo gosi huwomwene wa humwanya.
5 And whoever shall receive one such little child in my name, receiveth me.
Na wowonti wahuposhele umwana udodo whitawa lyane ahumposhela nene.
6 But whoever shall cause one of these little ones who believe in me, to sin, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and [that] he were drowned in the depth of the sea.
Ila wowonti wasababisya uwana kati ya weka abha bhabhahuneteha asaliti, yayibha shinza wha muntu oyo iwe igosi lya syela lipinywe msingo yakwe, na hudwinizye mwidimi li bahari.
7 Woe to the world because of offenses! for it must needs be that offenses come; but woe to that man by whom the offense cometh!
Aheli honse husababu yisala izya viswe huje saga hulini budi husala ezyo awhenze, ila ahele whakwe muntu ola isala ezyo zibhawhenze kwa ajili yamwene!
8 Wherefore, if thy hand or thy foot causeth thee to sin, cut them off, and cast [them] from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet, to be cast into everlasting fire. (aiōnios g166)
Nkesho inyobhe yaho au inama lyaho nkalyasabisizya aviswe lidumule na litaje uhuli nawe. Shinza hani whaho awe ahinjile huwomi luli bila nyobhe au shilema, kuliko atagwe mwimoto wiwila uli ni nyobhe zyonti au amanama gonti. (aiōnios g166)
9 And if thy eye causeth thee to sin, pluck it out, and cast [it] from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into hell-fire. (Geenna g1067)
Nkesho iliso lyaho livisizye, lisenye na ulitaje uhutali nawe. Shinza hani huliwe awe uinjile huwoni ni liso lyeka kuliko ataywe mumoto wiwila ali na maso gonti. (Geenna g1067)
10 Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones: for I say to you, that in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father who is in heaven.
Enyi aje msanzalau weka wabha dodo ebha. Kwa maana ihumbabhawozya aje humwanya huli antumi abhene insiku zyonti bhawhenya sha Baba wane wali humwanya.
11 For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.
(Simisizya: Amazu gagaloleha hansi gimsitali gwa 11, “Kwa kuwa umwana wa Adamu ahenzele awhaule shila shasha tejile” Sagagaloleshe mnakala nyinza zihale).
12 How think ye? if a man hath a hundred sheep, and one of them is gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and go to the mountains, and seek that which is gone astray?
Msabhanshi? Nkesho umuntu alini ngole mya moja, na yeka yawo yatega, eshi sagabhahuzileshe tisini na tisa mwigamba na abhale afwate yeka yitejile?
13 And if he findeth it, verily I say to you, he rejoiceth more over that [sheep], than over the ninety and nine which went not astray.
Na nkayaga, lyoli ihumbawozya, asongwa kuliko zila tisini na tisa zyasaga zitejile.
14 Even so it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.
Shesho shesho, saga lugano lwa Baba wenyu wa humwanya aje weka wa dodo ebha ateketele.
15 Moreover, if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.
Nkesho uholo waho avisizye, bhalaga, unolesye ishida yeleho awe numene lyali mwene. Nkabhahutejelezye, unzabhe umwezizye uholo waho.
16 But if he will not hear [thee], [then] take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
Ila nkasagabhahutejelezye, mweje, uholo weka au uwabhele hani pamo nawe, humalomu gasimisizi bhabhele au bhatatu kila izu liwezizye asimisizwe.
17 And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell [it] to the church: but if he shall neglect to hear the church, let him be to thee as a heathen and a publican.
Na nkasholonya ahubhatejelezye wozi ishibhanza iswala elyo, nkesho asholanya tena ashitejelezye ishibhanza, eshi na abhe hansi umuntu upagani na unsonkolozya kodi.
18 Verily I say to you, Whatever ye shall bind on earth, shall be bound in heaven: and whatever ye shall loose on earth, shall be loosed in heaven.
Lyoli ihumbawozya, shoshonti shila shamwayipinya panse na humwanya shayipinywa. Na shoshonti shamwa yisatula panse na humwanya shayisatulwa.
19 Again I say to you, That if two of you shall agree on earth, concerning any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them by my Father who is in heaven.
Eshi ihumbawozya aje abhantu bhabhele pakashi yenyu nkabhetehana pamwanya yiswala lyo lyonti panse lya bhasaya, elyo u Baba wane wahumwanya ayihuliwomba.
20 For where two or three are assembled in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
Nkabhabha bhabhele au bhatatu wawongene peka whitawa lyane, ene endi pakasi yawo.
21 Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?
Tena u Petro ayenza nahumozye Yesu, “Gosi, halenga uhole wane avwisye nane insamehe? Hata mala saba?”
22 Jesus saith to him, I say not to thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.
U Yesu amozya, “Sigiehuwozya mala saba, ila hata sabini mala saba.
23 Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened to a certain king who would take account of his servants.
Kwa sababu eyo awomwene wa humwanya ni sawa nu mwene omo wahanzaga asahihi sye ihesabu afume whaboyi bhakwe.
24 And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents.
Lwahanda asahihisye ihesabu, uboyi weka bhaneta whamwene wali ahudayi italanta elfu kumi.
25 But as he had not ability to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.
Afwatanaje sagaali ni dala lyalipe, ugosi wakwe alajizizye akazwe, onse wakwe pamo na bhana bhakwe na hantu honti hali naho, na malipo gafanyishe.
26 The servant therefore fell down, and worshiped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.
Esho uboyi agwiye, akhoma amafugamo whilongo lela lyakwe ayanga, 'Gosi, ubhe na golele pamo nane, na imbahulipe kila hantu.'
27 Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt.
Esho ugosi wola uboyi, afwatanaje asukumwi we hani ninkombo, anesheye na husamehe iliga elyo.
28 But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellow-servants, who owed him a hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took [him] by the throat, saying, Pay me what thou owest.
Ila uboyi ola asogoye na humwaje weka kati ya boyi bhakwe, wali ahudayi idinali mia. Akwesa, abida whimilo na humozye, 'Ndipe shila shihudai.
29 And his fellow-servant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.
ILa ola uboyi uwamwawo agwiye nahu nsisitizye hani, ayanjile, 'Ubhe nugolele nane, imbahulipe.'
30 And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt.
Ila uboyi ola wawhande akhanile. Hubadala yakwe, abhalile na huntaje mwijela, hadi lwayihunipa shila shahudayi.
31 So when his fellow-servants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told to their lord all that was done.
Na lwabhalola aboyi bhamwawo shila shishifumiye. Bhasononeshwe hani. Bhahenzele na humozye, ugosi wawo shila hantu hatokeye.
32 Then his lord, having called him, said to him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me:
Ndiyo ola ugosi wa boyi ola akwizizye, na humozye, awe boyi mibhi nasamehile ane iliga lyane lyonti kwa sababu wandabhile hani.
33 Shouldst thou not also have had compassion on thy fellow-servant, even as I had pity on thee?
Ashi! Sagawahanziwaga abhe ninkombo wha boyi abhamwenyu, hansi ane shanaloleye enkombo awe?
34 And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due to him.
Ugosi wakwe avitilwe na humeshe whabhala bhabhayemva hadi lwailipa ishipimo shonti shadayiwaga.
35 So likewise shall my heavenly Father do to you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.
Esho shesho Ubaba wane wa humwanya shaihubhawombela, nkesho kila weka wenyu saga ayihusamehe uholo wakwe afume mmoyo genyu.”
