Matthew 9
1 Accordingly He went on board, and crossing over came to His own town.
UYesu akapanda ingalava, akalovoka ilisumbe ilya Galilaya, akagomoka mu likaaja lyake Kapelenaumu.
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."
Pe avaanhu vamonga vakamuletela umuunhu unya nhamu ija liteela, aghonile pa keteefu. UYesu ye aluvwene ulwiltikko lwave kwa mwene, akati kwa ntamu, Mwanango, ghukangasie! Upyanilue inyivi saako.”
3 "Such language is impious," said some of the Scribes among themselves.
Pe aqvavulanisi va ndaghilo vamonga vakasaagha mu moojo ghaave vakati, “Umuunhu uju ikumulingha kyongo uNguluve!”
4 Knowing their thoughts Jesus said, "Why are you cherishing evil thoughts in your hearts?
Neke uYesu akasitang'hania sino vakva visaagha, akavaposia akati, “KIki musaagha imbiivi mu moojo ghiinu?
5 Why, which is easier? --to say, 'Your sins are pardoned,' or to say 'Rise up and walk'?
Lino luhuugu luliku? Kukumbuula unya liteela kuuti, Upyanilue inyivi saako; nambe kuuti, Ima, ughendaghe?'
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."
Lino pe mukagule kuuti une ne Mwana ghwa Muunhu nili nu vutavulilua uvwa kupyanila inyivi mu iisi muno” Pe akam'buula unya liteela akati, “Ima, veghela iliteefu lyako, vujagha.”
7 And he got up, and went off home.
Umuunhu jula akiima, akavuuka ivuja.
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.
Avaanhu mu lipugha ye vasivwene isio, lukavakola uludwesi, vakamughinia uNGuluve juno avapeliile avaanhu uvutavulilua ndavule uvuo.
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.
UYesu akavuuka pala. Ye ighenda iluta, akamwagha umuunhu jumonga, ilitavua lyake ghwe Mataayi, ikalile pano isongekesia isongo. UYesu akam'buula akati, “Umbingililaghe.” Pe akavuuka, akamb'bingilila.
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.
Pe uYesu akaluta kulia ikyakulia kwa Mataayi. Ye vali mu nyumba jila, vakingila avasongesi songo vinga na vahosi, vakikala vuhanga ikikyakulia nu Yesu palikimo n a vavulanusivua vaake vakati.
11 The Pharisees noticed this, and they inquired of His disciples, "Why does your Teacher eat with the tax-gatherers and notorious sinners?"
AVafalisayi ye vasivwene isio, vakavaposia avavulllanisivua vaake vakati, “Kiki um'bulanisi ghwinu ihagha ikyakulia na vasongesia songo na vahosi?”
12 He heard the question and replied, "It is not men in good health who require a doctor, but the sick.
Neke uYesu ye apuliike isio avavuula akati, “Avakafu navifumbua kuluta kwa mughanga, looli avatamu!
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."
Lino, lutagha mkamanyile umuluvo ghwa masio agha, 'Nilonda umuunhu avisaghe nya lusungu kukila kuhumia ilitekelo; ulwakuva une nanilyakisisie kukuvakemeela vano vikuvona vagholofu, looli vano vitang'hinia kuuva vahosi.”
14 At that time John's disciples came and asked Jesus, "Why do we and the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not?"
Pambele avavulanusivua va Yohani uMwofughi vakaluta kwa Yesu, vakamposia vakati, “Usue na Vafalisayi twatuvuhiila kulia mulwa kufuunya, ongo avavulanisivua vaako navivingilila ulwiho uluo?”
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.
Uyesu akavamula akati, “Vano vaghongolilue pa vutolani vali nu ntolan'dala, lwakiki vasukanalaghe? Looli filikwisa ifighono, pano untolan'dala ilivusivua. Apuo pepano vilivuhiila kulia mulwa kufuunya.
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.
Nakwale umuunhu juno ihonela ikigamba ikipia mu mwenda unkuulu, ulwakuva ikigamba ikio kidemule umwenda unkuulu ughuo, pe uvudemule vukwongelela kyoko.
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."
Kange, avaanhu naviviika uluhuuje uluuje ulupia mu nyambe ing'huulu, nave fye vavombe uluo, inyambe sipusuka, uluhuuje kukung'hika nasi nyambe sinangika. Looli viviika uluhuuje ulupia mu nyambe imia, pe inyambe nu luhuuje fijigha vunofu!”
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."
UYesu ye ikavavuula amasio aghuo, akiisa umulongosi jumonga, akafughama pa mwene, akam'buula, akati, “Umwalivango afwile unsiki ghughuughu, sivuo tuvuuke uluvoko lwako pa mwene, neke aave mwinu.”
19 And Jesus rose and followed him, as did also His disciples.
Pe uYesu akavvka palikimo na vavulanisivua vaake, akam'bingilila umulongosi jula.
20 But a woman who for twelve years had been afflicted with haemorrhage came behind Him and touched the tassel of His cloak;
Pwealyale umukijuuva jumonga juno alyale ni nhanu ija kuhuma idanda. Inhamu ijio jilyammwisie ammaka kijigho na ghavili. Umukijuuva ujuo akiisa kunsana kwa Yesu, akabasia uluvilo ulwa mwenda gwake.
21 for she said to herself, "If I but touch His cloak, I shall be cured."
Akavomba uluo ulwakuva akasaghagha kuuti, “Ningabasie ghu mwenda ghwake, nisooka.
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.
Ye abasisie, uYesu akasyetuka, akamwagha, akam'buula akati, “Mwalivango, kangala! Usokile vwimila ulwitiko lwako!” Unsiki ghula, umukijuuva jula akasooka.
23 Entering the Ruler's house, Jesus saw the flute-players and the crowd loudly wailing,
Uyesu ye afikile mu nyumba ija mulongosi jula, akavaagha avaanhu vinga vakong'hanile, vilila nu lusukunalo ulukome, vamonga vikuva ifilongilongi.
24 and He said, "Go out of the room; the little girl is not dead, but asleep." And they laughed at Him.
uYesu akavavuula akati, “Muvuuke! Ulwakuva umhija uju naafwiile, looli aghoneliile! Avaanhu vala vakanseka kyoyo.
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.
Umwene akavahumia kunji avaanhu vala, pe akingila kukate kwa mhinjajula, akankola uluvoko, umhinja jula akiima.
26 And the report of this spread throughout all that district.
Imhola isio sikakwila mu iisi jooni.
27 As Jesus passed on, two blind men followed Him, shouting and saying, "Pity us, Son of David."
UYesu akavuuka pa kaaja ja mulongosi jula. Ye avukile pala pavabofu amaaso vavili, vakam'bingilila kumo vikemeela fiijo viiti, “Ghwe Mwana ghwa Davidi, utusungukile!
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.
UYesu akingila mu nyumbba, voope avabofu vala vakingila. Pe akavaposia akati, “Asia, mukwitika kuuti une nili ni ngufu isa kuvasosia?” Aveene vakamwamula vakati, Eena, Mutwa! Tukwitika.”
29 So He touched their eyes and said, "According to your faith let it be to you."
Pe uYesu akavabasia amaaso ghaave, akavavuula akati, “Sivombeke kulyumue ndavule lulivuo ulwitiko lwinu.
30 Then their eyes were opened. And assuming a stern tone Jesus said to them, "Be careful to let no one know."
Amaaso ghaave ghakadinduka. Pe uYesu akavavuula akati, “Namungam'bulaghe nambe muunhu imhola isi!”
31 But they went out and published His fame in all that district.
Neke aveene vakavuuka, vakakwisia imhola saake mu iisi jila jooni.
32 And as they were leaving His presence a dumb demoniac was brought to Him.
Avaanhu vavili avuo ye vavukile pala, avaanhu vamonga vakamuletela uYesu umuunhu juno alyale ni lipepo. Ilipepo ilio lilyampeleliile kuuva kinuunu.
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."
Pe uYesu akalidaga ilipepo lil, unsiki ghughuo umuunhu jula akateghula kuvoja kange. Avaanhu vano pwepalyale pala vakadegha kyongo, vakat, “Isi nasighelile kuvoneka nambe padebe mu iisi jooni ija Isilaeli.”
34 But the Pharisees maintained, "It is by the power of the Prince of the demons that he drives out the demons."
Neke aVafalisayi vakatisagha, “Umuunhu uju idaga amapepo mu ngufu isa livaha lya mapepo!
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.
Pe uYesu akava iluta mu makaaja ghooni na mu fikaaj. Akava ikwingila mu masinagogi ghaave ivulania na kupulisia iMhola iNofu ija vutwa vwa Nguluve, kange akavasyagha avatamu inhamu saave sooni.
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.
Ye ikulivona ilipugha ilya vaanhu, akavavonela ikisa, ulwakuva valyale vihangajika, navalyale nu ghwa kuvatanga, valyale hwene ng'holo isila n'diimi.
37 Then He said to His disciples, "The harvest is abundant, but the reapers are few;
Pe akavavuula avavulanisivua vaake akati, “Mu mughunda ifiinu fimotwike, neke avanya kupeta vadebe.
38 therefore entreat the Owner of the Harvest to send out reapers into His fields."
Lino, munsuume unya mughunda, asuung'he avvanhu avange avanya kupeta.”
