Matthew 9
1 He entered into a boat and crossed over, and came into his own city.
Yesu wukuma mu nlungu ayi wusabuka mbu; ayi wuyenda ku divula diandi.
2 Behold, they brought to him a man who was paralysed, lying on a bed. Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the paralytic, “Son, cheer up! Your sins are forgiven you.”
Bannatina mu kiphoyi dikoka dimosi. Yesu bu kamona minu kiawu, wukamba dikoka: —Ba ayi bukhafi muanꞌama, masumu maku malemvukulu.
3 Behold, some of the scribes said to themselves, “This man blasphemes.”
Buna minlongi minkaka mi Mina mieka niunguta: “Mutu wawu wulembo vuezi Nzambi!”
4 Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts?
Yesu wuzaba mayindu mawu ayi wuba yuvula: —Bila mbi luididi mayindu mambimbi mu mintima mieno?
5 For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven;’ or to say, ‘Get up, and walk’?
Mbi bilutidi kambu phasi mu kamba: “Masumu maku malemvukulu” voti: “Telama kuaku ayi diata”?
6 But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins—” (then he said to the paralytic), “Get up, and take up your mat, and go to your house.”
Vayi muingi luzaba mboti ti Muana Mutu beki lulendo vava ntoto mu lemvukila masumu. Buna wutala dikoka ayi wunkamba: —Telama, bonga kiphoyi kiaku, vutuka ku nzoꞌaku.
7 He arose and departed to his house.
Dikoka beni ditelama ayi diyenda ku nzoꞌandi.
8 But when the multitudes saw it, they marvelled and glorified God, who had given such authority to men.
Nkangu wu batu bu wumona bobo, bamona boma ayi bakembisa Nzambi wuvana lulendo luphila yoyi kuidi batu.
9 As Jesus passed by from there, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax collection office. He said to him, “Follow me.” He got up and followed him.
Yesu wuyenda. Bu kaba vioka, wumona mutu wumosi, dizina diandi Matayi, wuvuanda mu bilu kimfutusulungu ziphaku. Wunkamba: —Wundandakana! Matayi wutelama ayi wunlandakana.
10 As he sat in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with Jesus and his disciples.
Bu kaba ndia va meza mu nzo Matayi, buna mimfutisi miwombo mi ziphaku ayi bankua masumu bayiza dia va meza va kimosi ayi Yesu ayi minlonguki miandi.
11 When the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”
Bafalisi bu bamona bobo bayuvula minlonguki miandi: —Bila mbi Nlongiꞌeno kalembo dila va kimosi ayi mimfutisi mi ziphaku ayi bankua masumu e?
12 When Jesus heard it, he said to them, “Those who are healthy have no need for a physician, but those who are sick do.
Yesu bu kawa bobo, buna wuvutula: —Batu badi nitu yi mvini batombanga munganga ko vayi batu badi bimbevo bawu bantombanga munganga.
13 But you go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’ for I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”
Luenda lulonguka tsundu yi mambu mama: thidi luba batu badi mintima mi kiadi vayi mbengi luthambikanga kaka makaba. Bila ndisia kuiza tela ko batu basonga vayi ndiyiza tela bankua masumu.
14 Then John’s disciples came to him, saying, “Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but your disciples don’t fast?”
Buna minlonguki mi Yowani miyiza kuidi Yesu mu kunyuvula ti: —Bila mbi beto ayi bafalisi tueti kifuisa nzala mu diambu di lusambulu vayi minlonguki miaku mikifuisanga nzala ko mu diambu di lusambulu e?
15 Jesus said to them, “Can the friends of the bridegroom mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast.
Yesu wuba vutudila: —Lumbanza ti batu bobo batumusu kuidi ditoko diodo dikuedidi balenda ba mu kiadi ditoko bu kakidi yawu va kimosi e? Vayi vadi thangu bu bela ku bakatula ditoko va khatitsikꞌawu, buna bosi bela kukifuisa nzala mu diambu di lusambulu.
16 No one puts a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; for the patch would tear away from the garment, and a worse hole is made.
Kuisi ko mutu wela bonga tendi kinledi kimona muingi kalondila nledi wukhulu bila tende kioki kimona maki kakuna nledi wukhulu, ayi divudu ma diba dinneni.
17 Neither do people put new wine into old wineskins, or else the skins would burst, and the wine be spilled, and the skins ruined. No, they put new wine into fresh wineskins, and both are preserved.”
Bobuawu balendi tula ko vinu kimona mu zitsaku zikhulu bila buna zitsaku zikanzukidi ayi buna vinu kidukukidi ayi zitsaku zifuidi. Vayi beti lundila vinu kimona mu zitsaku zimona. Mu phila yoyi zitsaku ayi vinu mabilundama bumboti!
18 While he told these things to them, behold, a ruler came and worshipped him, saying, “My daughter has just died, but come and lay your hand on her, and she will live.”
Mu thangu Yesu kaba kamba mambu mama, pfumu yimosi wuyiza fukama va ntualꞌandi ayi wutuba: —Muanꞌama wunketo fuidi vayi bufueni wiza ntetika koko kuaku ayi ma kazinga diaka!
19 Jesus got up and followed him, as did his disciples.
Yesu wutelama ayi wunlandakana va kimosi ayi minlonguki miandi.
20 Behold, a woman who had a discharge of blood for twelve years came behind him, and touched the fringe of his garment;
Mu thangu yina nketo wumosi wuba kimbevo kiviokanga menga; kimbevo beni kizingila kumi mvu miodi, wufikama ku manima ayi wusimba tsongi nlediꞌandi.
21 for she said within herself, “If I just touch his garment, I will be made well.”
Bila wuyindula mu ntimꞌandi ti: “minu simba kuandi nledi andi, mfueti kaka beluka!”
22 But Jesus, turning around and seeing her, said, “Daughter, cheer up! Your faith has made you well.” And the woman was made well from that hour.
Yesu wutala ku manima ayi bu kammona, wutuba: —Muanꞌama wunketo, ba bukhafi, bila minu kiaku kibelusidi! Buna nketo beni wubeluka muna yina thangu.
23 When Jesus came into the ruler’s house and saw the flute players and the crowd in noisy disorder,
Yesu bu katula ku nzo pfumu, wumona minsiki mi minsioni ayi nkangu wu batu wuba ntela-ntela.
24 he said to them, “Make room, because the girl isn’t dead, but sleeping.” They were ridiculing him.
Buna wutuba: —Totukeno, bila muana wunketo kasi fua ko, vayi tulu tuandi kalekidi.
25 But when the crowd was sent out, he entered in, took her by the hand, and the girl arose.
Nkangu bu wumana totuka ku nganda, Yesu wukota ayi wusimba muana beni mu koko, bosi muana ndumba beni wutelama.
26 The report of this went out into all that land.
Tsangu beni yitembakana mu zunga kioso.
27 As Jesus passed by from there, two blind men followed him, calling out and saying, “Have mercy on us, son of David!”
Yesu bu katotuka vana, baphofo buadi zinlandakana vayi sumbu ziba kuenda nlandakana zilembo yamikina: —A Muana Davidi e, wutumoni kiadi e!
28 When he had come into the house, the blind men came to him. Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” They told him, “Yes, Lord.”
Bu kakota ku nzo, baphofo zifikama va kaba. Niandi wuba yuvula: —Luwilukidi ti ndenda vanga diawu e? Bawu bavutula: —Nyinga Pfumu.
29 Then he touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith be it done to you.”
Bosi wusimba meso mawu ayi wukamba: —Bika buvangimina boso buididi minu kieno!
30 Then their eyes were opened. Jesus strictly commanded them, saying, “See that no one knows about this.”
Vana vawu meso mawu mazibukidi. Yesu wuba kandika ti: —kadi mutu kazaba mambu mama.
31 But they went out and spread abroad his fame in all that land.
Vayi bawu bu bayenda, bamana tembikisa tsangu andi mu zunga kioso.
32 As they went out, behold, a mute man who was demon possessed was brought to him.
Mu thangu batotuka, bannatina dibaba, wuba yamusungu kuidi pheve yimbimbi.
33 When the demon was cast out, the mute man spoke. The multitudes marvelled, saying, “Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel!”
Yesu wukuka pheve beni. Muna thangu beni kaka mutu weka nyoluka. Batu basimina ayi bakamba: —Tumueni ko mambu ma phila yayi mu Iseli!
34 But the Pharisees said, “By the prince of the demons, he casts out demons.”
Vayi Bafalisi bakamba: —A keti mu lulendo lu Pfumu yi ziphevi zimbimbi kalembo kukila ziphevi zimbimbi!
35 Jesus went about all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness amongst the people.
Yesu wuba diengilanga mu mavula moso ayi mu mala moso. Wuba longanga mu zinzo zi zikhutukunu zi Bayuda ayi wuba longanga Nsamu wumboti wu Kipfumu, wuba belusanga bimbevo biphila mu phila ayi ziphasi zi phila mu phila.
36 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion for them because they were harassed and scattered, like sheep without a shepherd.
Bu kamona nkangu wu batu, kiadi kimbuila mu diambu diawu, bila batu beni ku tsi mayindu baba ayi baba bavonga banga mamemi makondolo nsungi.
37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest indeed is plentiful, but the labourers are few.
Buna wukamba minlonguki miandi: —Lutala, mimbutu miyela mieka miwombo mu tsola vayi bisadi bidi bifioti.
38 Pray therefore that the Lord of the harvest will send out labourers into his harvest.”
Diawu lulomba kuidi Pfumu yi tsola muingi kafidisa bisadi mu diambu di vela mimbutu.
