Matthew 9
1 Accordingly He went on board, and crossing over came to His own town.
Yesu amataki na bwato, akatisaki ebale mpe akendeki na engumba na Ye.
2 Here they brought to Him a paralytic lying on a bed. Seeing their faith Jesus said to the paralytic, "Take courage, my child; your sins are pardoned."
Bamemelaki Ye ebosono moko alala na tsipoyi. Tango Yesu amonaki kondima na bango, alobaki na ebosono yango: — Mwana na Ngai, yika mpiko! Masumu na yo elimbisami.
3 "Such language is impious," said some of the Scribes among themselves.
Mpo na yango, ndambo ya balakisi ya Mobeko bakomaki kolobaloba na se ya mitema: — Moto oyo azali kotiola Nzambe!
4 Knowing their thoughts Jesus said, "Why are you cherishing evil thoughts in your hearts?
Lokola Yesu asosolaki makanisi na bango, atunaki bango: — Mpo na nini bozali na makanisi mabe kati na mitema na bino?
5 Why, which is easier? --to say, 'Your sins are pardoned,' or to say 'Rise up and walk'?
Likambo nini eleki pete mpo na koloba: « Masumu na yo elimbisami to telema mpe tambola? »
6 But, to prove to you that the Son of Man has authority on earth to pardon sins" --He then says to the paralytic, "Rise, and take up your bed and go home."
Ezali mpo boyeba ete Mwana na Moto azali na bokonzi ya kolimbisa masumu kati na mokili. Bongo alobaki na ebosono: — Telema, kamata tsipoyi na yo mpe zonga na ndako na yo.
7 And he got up, and went off home.
Moto yango atelemaki mpe akendeki na ndako na ye.
8 And the crowds were awe-struck when they saw it, and ascribed the glory to God who had entrusted such power to a man.
Tango ebele ya bato bamonaki bongo, batondaki na somo mpe bakomaki kokumisa Nzambe oyo apesi bokonzi ya ndenge wana epai ya bato.
9 Passing on thence Jesus saw a man called Matthew sitting at the Toll Office, and said to him, "Follow me." And he arose, and followed Him.
Wana Yesu alongwaki na esika yango mpe azalaki kokende, amonaki mobali moko avandi na ndako na ye ya mosala epai wapi bafutaka mpako; kombo na ye ezalaki « Matayo. » Yesu alobaki na ye: « Landa Ngai. » Boye Matayo atelemaki mpe alandaki Yesu.
10 And while He was reclining at table, a large number of tax-gathers and notorious sinners were of the party with Jesus and His disciples.
Wana Yesu azalaki kolia kati na ndako ya Matayo, bafutisi mpako ebele mpe bato mosusu ya masumu bayaki mpe baliaki mesa moko na Yesu elongo na bayekoli na Ye.
11 The Pharisees noticed this, and they inquired of His disciples, "Why does your Teacher eat with the tax-gatherers and notorious sinners?"
Tango Bafarizeo bamonaki bongo, batunaki bayekoli ya Yesu: — Mpo na nini moteyi na bino azali kolia mesa moko na bafutisi mpako mpe bato ya masumu?
12 He heard the question and replied, "It is not men in good health who require a doctor, but the sick.
Kasi lokola Yesu ayokaki Bafarizeo koloba bongo, alobaki na bango: — Bato oyo bazali kolongono na nzoto bazalaka na posa ya monganga te; ezali babeli nde bazalaka na posa na ye.
13 But go and learn what this means, 'It is mercy that I desire, not sacrifice'; for I did not come to appeal to the righteous, but to sinners."
Bokende koyekola tina ya maloba oyo: « Nasepelaka na motema ya boboto koleka mbeka, » pamba te nayaki te koluka bato ya sembo, kasi bato ya masumu.
14 At that time John's disciples came and asked Jesus, "Why do we and the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not?"
Bongo bayekoli ya Yoane bayaki mpe batunaki Yesu: — Mpo na nini biso mpe Bafarizeo tokilaka bilei, kasi bayekoli na yo bakilaka bilei te?
15 "Can the bridegroom's party mourn," He replied, "as long as the bridegroom is with them? But other days will come (when the Bridegroom has been taken from them) and then they will fast.
Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Boni, bato oyo babengami na feti ya libala bakoki solo kozala na mawa, wana mobali ya libala azali elongo na bango? Nzokande, tango ezali koya oyo bakolongola mobali ya libala kati na bango; mpe ekozala na tango wana nde bakokila bilei.
16 No one ever mends an old cloak with a patch of newly woven cloth. Otherwise, the patch put on would tear away some of the old, and a worse hole would be made.
Moto moko te asalelaka eteni ya elamba ya sika mpo na kobamba elamba ya kala, noki te eteni ya elamba ya sika ekopasola elamba ya kala, mpe ekosala lidusu monene koleka.
17 Nor do people pour new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the skins would split, the wine would escape, and the skins be destroyed. But they put new wine into fresh skins, and both are saved."
Ezali mpe ndenge moko mpo na vino ya sika: batiaka yango te kati na bambeki ya kala, noki te bambeki ekopasuka, vino ekosopana mpe bambeki ekobeba libela. Nzokande, batiaka kaka vino ya sika kati na bambeki ya sika; na bongo, vino mpe bambeki ekobatelama malamu.
18 While He was thus speaking, a Ruler came up and profoundly bowing said, "My daughter is just dead; but come and put your hand upon her and she will return to life."
Wana Yesu azalaki koloba na bango, mokambi moko ayaki; agumbamaki liboso ya Yesu mpe alobaki na Ye: — Mwana na ngai ya mwasi akufi kaka sik’oyo; yaka, tiela ye loboko, mpe akozonga lisusu na bomoi.
19 And Jesus rose and followed him, as did also His disciples.
Yesu atelemaki mpe, elongo na bayekoli na Ye, alandaki mokambi yango.
20 But a woman who for twelve years had been afflicted with haemorrhage came behind Him and touched the tassel of His cloak;
Na tango yango kaka, ezalaki na mwasi moko oyo azalaki na bokono ya kotanga makila, mpe bokono yango ewumelaki mibu pene zomi na mibale. Mwasi yango ayaki na sima ya Yesu mpe asimbaki singa ya songe ya elamba na Ye,
21 for she said to herself, "If I but touch His cloak, I shall be cured."
pamba te azalaki komilobela: — Soki kaka nasimbi elamba na Ye, nakobika na bokono na ngai.
22 And Jesus turned and saw her, and said, "Take courage, daughter; your faith has cured you." And the woman was restored to health from that moment.
Yesu atalaki na sima mpe amonaki ye; alobaki: — Mwana na Ngai ya mwasi, yika mpiko! Kondima na yo ebikisi yo. Mpe kaka na tango yango, mwasi yango abikaki na bokono na ye.
23 Entering the Ruler's house, Jesus saw the flute-players and the crowd loudly wailing,
Tango Yesu akomaki na ndako ya mokambi ya ndako ya mayangani, amonaki babeti flite mpe bato ebele bazali kotia makelele.
24 and He said, "Go out of the room; the little girl is not dead, but asleep." And they laughed at Him.
Alobaki na bango: — Bobima! Mwana akufi te; alali nde pongi. Kasi bato bakomaki kotiola Ye.
25 When however the place was cleared of the crowd, Jesus went in, and on His taking the little girl by the hand, she rose up.
Mpe sima na bango kobima libanda, Yesu akotaki na shambre, asimbaki elenge mwasi na loboko, mpe elenge mwasi yango alamukaki.
26 And the report of this spread throughout all that district.
Sango ya likambo yango epanzanaki na etuka wana mobimba.
27 As Jesus passed on, two blind men followed Him, shouting and saying, "Pity us, Son of David."
Tango Yesu alongwaki wana, bakufi miso mibale balandaki Ye na koganga: — Mwana ya Davidi, yokela biso mawa!
28 And when He had gone indoors, they came to Him. "Do you believe that I can do this?" He asked them. "Yes, Sir," they replied.
Tango Yesu akomaki na ndako, bakufi miso bapusanaki pene na Ye. Atunaki bango: — Bondimi ete nazali na makoki ya kosala oyo bozali kosenga Ngai? Bazongisaki: — Iyo, Nkolo!
29 So He touched their eyes and said, "According to your faith let it be to you."
Bongo asimbaki miso na bango mpe alobaki: — Tika ete esalemela bino kolanda kondima na bino!
30 Then their eyes were opened. And assuming a stern tone Jesus said to them, "Be careful to let no one know."
Mpe mbala moko, bakomaki komona. Bongo Yesu akebisaki bango: — Bosala keba ete moto moko te ayeba likambo oyo ekomeli bino.
31 But they went out and published His fame in all that district.
Kasi bango, tango kaka babimi, bakomaki kopanza sango na Ye kati na etuka wana mobimba.
32 And as they were leaving His presence a dumb demoniac was brought to Him.
Wana bato wana mibale bazalaki kobima, bamemelaki Yesu moto moko oyo azalaki na se ya bokonzi ya molimo mabe mpe azalaki koloba te.
33 When the demon was expelled, the dumb man could speak. And the crowds exclaimed in astonishment, "Never was such a thing seen in Israel."
Yesu abenganaki molimo mabe yango, mpe moto oyo azalaki koloba te akomaki koloba. Ebele ya bato bakamwaki mpe balobaki: — Kati na Isalaele, totikala nanu komona likambo ya boye te!
34 But the Pharisees maintained, "It is by the power of the Prince of the demons that he drives out the demons."
Kasi Bafarizeo bazalaki koloba: — Azali kobengana milimo mabe na nguya ya mokonzi ya milimo mabe.
35 And Jesus continued His circuits through all the towns and the villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the Good News of the Kingdom, and curing every kind of disease and infirmity.
Yesu azalaki kotambola na bamboka mpe na bingumba nyonso, azalaki koteya kati na bandako na bango ya mayangani mpe kosakola Sango Malamu ya Bokonzi; azalaki kobikisa bato na bokono mpe na pasi ya ndenge na ndenge.
36 And when He saw the crowds He was touched with pity for them, because they were distressed and were fainting on the ground like sheep which have no shepherd.
Tango Yesu amonaki ngulupa ebele ya bato, ayokelaki bango mawa, pamba te mitema na bango ebukanaki, mpe balembaki makasi lokola bameme oyo ezangi mobateli.
37 Then He said to His disciples, "The harvest is abundant, but the reapers are few;
Yesu alobaki na bayekoli na Ye: « Elanga ezali monene, kasi basali bazali moke!
38 therefore entreat the Owner of the Harvest to send out reapers into His fields."
Yango wana, bosenga na Nkolo elanga ete atinda basali kati na elanga na Ye. »
