Matthew 18
1 Just then the disciples came to Jesus and asked, "Who ranks higher than others in the Kingdom of the Heavens?"
Unsiki ghulaghula avavulanisivua vakisa kwa Yesu na kukum'bula,”Ghwe veeni juuno m'baha mhu vutwa uvwa kukyanya?”
2 So He called a young child to Him, and, bidding him stand in the midst of them,
U Yesu akakemela umwana un'debe, akam'bika pakati na kati pa vanave,
3 said, "In solemn truth I tell you that unless you turn and become like little children, you will in no case be admitted into the Kingdom of the Heavens.
na kuti,”kyang'haani nikuvavuula, mungabuhile kulata na kuuva heene vaana vadebe namunganoghele kukwingila mhu vutua vwa Nguluve.
4 Whoever therefore shall humble himself as this young child, he it is who is superior to others in the Kingdom of the Heavens.
Pa uluo umuunhu ghweni juuno ikuviika heene mwaana n'debe, umunhu ndavule ujuo ghwe mbaha mhu vutua uvwa kukyanya.
5 And whoever for my sake receives one young child such as this, receives me.
Kange umuunhu ghweni juuno ikumwupila umwaana u'debe mhu litavua lyango ikunyupila uune.
6 But whoever shall occasion the fall of one of these little ones who believe in me, it would be better for him to have a millstone hung round his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.
Looli ghweni juno ipelepesia jumo pakati pa vadebe ava vano vikunyitika kugaluka, luuva lunono kwa muunhu ujuo ilivue ilivaha ilya kuhavulila likungua kusingo kwa mwene, kange kudwivilila mhu kyogho mhu nyanja.
7 "Alas for the world because of causes of falling! They cannot but come, but alas for each man through whom they come!
Iiga khu iisi ulwakuva unsiki ughwa kukalasia! ulwakuuva nalunofu khu masiki aghuo kukwisa, looli iiga kwa juula umuunhu juula amasiki ghala ghikwisa vwimila umwene!
8 If your hand or your foot is causing you to fall into sin, cut it off and away with it. It is better for you to enter into Life crippled in hand or foot than to remain in possession of two sound hands or feet but be thrown into the fire of the Ages. (aiōnios g166)
Heene uluvoko lwako nambe ulughulu lwako lukukupelepesia kukalala, udumule kange utaghe kuvutali nhu nuve. Lunofu kyongo kulyuve juuve kukwingila khuvwumi kuuva nsila luvoko nambe uvulemavu, kuliko kutaghua khu mwooto ughwa kusila na kusila ghuva na mavoko ghooni nambe amaghulu ghooni. (aiōnios g166)
9 And if your eye is causing you to fall into sin, tear it out and away with it; it is better for you to enter into Life with only one eye, than to remain in possession of two eyes but be thrown into the Gehenna of fire. (Geenna g1067)
Heene iliso lyako likukukalasia, kuula kange ulitaghe kuvutali nuvee. Lunofu kyongo kulyuve juuve ghwingile kuvwumi nhi liiso limo, kuliko kutaghua khu mwooto aghwa kusila na kusila ghuva nha maaso ghooni. (Geenna g1067)
10 "Beware of ever despising one of these little ones, for I tell you that in Heaven their angels have continual access to my Father who is in Heaven.
Lolagha kuuti mulisa kusyojola juumo ughwa vadebe ava. Ulwakuva nikuvavuula kuuti kukyanya kulivanyamola vavanave ifighono fyoni vilola uvweni vwa Nhaata ghwango juuno alikukyanya.
(Gadilila: Amasio ghanoghivoneka heene gha kidebe kya 11,”Ulwakuuva u mwaana ghwa Adamu akisile kukutupoka kiila kinokikasovile”naghakavonike mhu nakala innofu isa kali).
12 What do you yourselves think? Suppose a man gets a hundred sheep and one of them strays away, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go and look for the one that is straying?
Musagha kiiki? Pano umunhu alining'olo kijigho kimo, jimo musene isova, vuuli naikuvaleka ifijigho tanda ifya kufidunda na kuluta kukumulonda juumo juuno asovile?
13 And if he succeeds in finding it, in solemn truth I tell you that he rejoices over it more than he does over the ninety-nine that have not gone astray.
Kange angamwaghe, kyang'haani nikuvavuula, ikunkela kuliko vaala kijigho kimo nhu tanda vanonavisova.
14 Just so it is not the will of your Father in Heaven that one of these little ones should be lost.
Pa uluo navwevwighane vwa Nhaata ghwinu ughwa kukyanya kuuti juumo mhu vadebe ava valemale.
15 "If your brother acts wrongly towards you, go and point out his fault to him when only you and he are there. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother.
Heene unyalukolo ghwako angakukosele, luuta, ukansone ilidoa pakate palyuve nhu mwene pano iiva mwene jujuuo. Ndavule ikukupulikisia, ghuva ugomwisie unyalukolo ghwako.
16 But if he will not listen to you, go again, and ask one or two to go with you, that every word spoken may be attested by two or three witnesses.
Looli nave naikupulikisia, ntoole unyalukolo juumo nambe vavili kyongo palikimo nuuve, Ulwakuuva mumalomo agha volesi vavili nambe vatatu kiila lisio linoghile kukagulua.
17 If he refuses to hear them, appeal to the Church; and if he refuses to hear even the Church, regard him just as you regard a Gentile or a tax-gatherer.
Nave ibeda kuvampulikisia, livule ilikong'ano ilisio ilio, nave ibeda vulevule kupulikisia ilikong'ano, looli avisaghe heene muunhu ughwa vapanji usonga songo.
18 I solemnly tell you that whatever you as a Church bind on earth will in Heaven be held as bound, and whatever you loose on earth will in Heaven be held to be loosed.
Kyang'haani nikuvavuula kyekyoni kiila kinomuliva mudinda mhu iisi na kukyanya kidindua. kange kyekyoni kinomudindula mhu iisi na kukyanya kidindulivua.
19 I also solemnly tell you that if two of you here on earth agree together concerning anything whatever that they shall ask, the boon will come to them from my Father who is in Heaven.
Kange nikuvavuula kuuti nave avaanhu vavili pakati palyumue vangiting'ane vwimila vwa lisio lyelyoni pa iisi linovisuma, iilio u Nhaata ghwango ughwa kukyanya ivomba.
20 For where there are two or three assembled in my name, there am I in the midst of them."
Ulwakuva vavili nambe vatatu vangakong'ane palikimo khu litavua lyango, une nili pakatenakate naveene.
21 At this point Peter came to Him with the question, "Master, how often shall my brother act wrongly towards me and I forgive him? seven times?"
Pepano u Petro akisa na pikum'bula u Yesu,”ghwe Mutwa, na kalingi unyalukolo ghwango ifikuhoka une nisaghile? Nifikusaghilagha kuhanga kufika lekela lubale?”
22 "I do not say seven times," answered Jesus, "but seventy times seven times.
U Yesu akam'bula,”Naniiti kufika lekela lubale, looli usaghilaghe fijigho lekela lubale.
23 "For this reason the Kingdom of the Heavens may be compared to a king who determined to have a settlement of accounts with his servants.
Ulwakuuva ulu uvutwa vwa kukyanya vuling'ine ni kihwanikisio ikya ntwa jumonga juno akalondagha kuvala fino kuhuma kuvavombi vaake. Untwa ujuo ye atengwile
24 But as soon as he began the settlement, one was brought before him who owed 10,000 talents,
kuvala fino ikuvasighila, um'bombi jumo alyale isighilua italanta imbilima kijigho.
25 and was unable to pay. So his master ordered that he and his wife and children and everything that he had should be sold, and payment be made.
Um'bombi ujuo ulwakuva alyakunilue kuhomba, untwa ghwa mwene alyaghile aghusivue, un'dala ghwake palikimo na vaana vaake ni fiinu fyoni fino alyale nafyo, neke ahombe fyoni.
26 The servant therefore falling down, prostrated himself at his feet and entreated him. "'Only give me time,' he said, 'and I will pay you the whole.'
Pe um'bombi jula akaghua, akafughama pavulongolo pa mwene, akati,'Mutwa, uve nhu lugudo palikimo nune, ifinu fyako fyoni nihomba.'
27 "Whereupon his master, touched with compassion, set him free and forgave him the debt.
Pe untwa ughwa jula um'bombi, ulwakuva akasukumivue kyongo nhu lusungu, akantavula na kukunsaghila fyoni fino isighilia
28 But no sooner had that servant gone out, than he met with one of his fellow servants who owed him 100 shillings; and seizing him by the throat and nearly strangling him he exclaimed, "'Pay me all you owe.'
Looli um'bombi jula ye avukile pala akatang'ana nu mbombi ujaake, juno alyale ikunsighila idinali kilundo. Akankola, akantaka kusingo, akam'bula,'Uhombe fyoni fino nikukusighila.'
29 "His fellow servant therefore fell at his feet and entreated him, "'Only give me time,' he said, 'and I will pay you.'
Looli um'bombi ujaake jula akafughama pa maaso ghaake, akampelepesia, akati,'Nisuma unguule padebe ifinu fyako fyoni fino nisighilua nihomba.'
30 "He would not, however, but went and threw him into prison until he should pay what was due.
Neke um'bombi jula akakaana. pe, akaluta kukundindila ujaake mudinde, kuhanga pano ihomba ifinu fyoni fino isighilua.
31 His fellow servants, therefore, seeing what had happened, were exceedingly angry; and they came and told their master without reserve all that had happened.
Avavombi avajaake ye vasivwene isio. Vakalemala kyongo. Vakaluta na kukum'bula untwa ghuvanave sooni sino sivombike.
32 At once his master called him and said, "'Wicked servant, I forgave you all that debt, because you entreated me:
Pepano untwa akankemela um'bombi jula, akam'bula akati,'Ghwe m'bombi uve uli mbivi, uve ye unisumile une nakusaghila fyoni fino nakusighilagha.
33 ought not you also to have had pity on your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you?'
Asi! nuveele unoghile kukunsungukila umbombi un'jaako, ndavule une niveele nikunsungukile une?
34 "So his master, greatly incensed, handed him over to the jailers until he should pay all he owed him.
Untwa jula akakalala kyongo pe akalaghila atwalue mu ndinde kupumusivua kuhanga pano ihomba ifinu fyoni fino isighilua. Enendiiki na ju Nhaata
35 "In the same way my Heavenly Father will deal with you, if you do not all of you forgive one another from your hearts."
ghwango ughwa kukyanya fye ilikuvahomba, na jumue nave namunkusaghila nhu mwoojo um'balafu unyalukolo.”
