Matthew 21
1 When they came near to Jerusalem and came to Bethsphage, to the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,
Yesu na wafundwa wakuwi pawaweriti pakwegera na Yerusalemu na kusoka Betifagi kulugongu lwa Mizeyituni, kawatumiti wantumintumi wakuwi wawili,
2 saying to them, “Go into the village that is opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Untie them and bring them to me.
pakawagambira, “Mgendi mpaka kushijiji sha palongolu penu na hamumwoni punda na mwana gwakuwi wawatawa. Muwayopoli na munjegeri.
3 If anyone says anything to you, you shall say, ‘The Lord needs them,’ and immediately he will send them.”
Handa muntu yoseri pakatakula shoseri, mumgambiri, ‘Mtuwa kawafira kawatenderi na shakapanu hawawalekeri.’”
4 All this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying,
Shitwatira ashi shitendikiti su galii gagatakulitwi na mbuyi gwa Mlungu gatendeki,
5 “Tell the daughter of Zion, behold, your King comes to you, humble, and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.”
“Mlugambiri lushi lwa Sayuni, Guloli, Mfalumi gwaku kankwiza kwa gwenga! Ndo mpoli na kakwena panani pa punda, Na ndama, mwana gwa punda.”
6 The disciples went and did just as Jesus commanded them,
Su wafundwa wakuwi wagenda na watenda ntambu Yesu yakawalagaliriti,
7 and brought the donkey and the colt and laid their clothes on them; and he sat on them.
wamjega punda ulii na ndama gwakuwi, wayazilira nguwu zyawu panani pa punda na Yesu kakwena kalivaga pampindi pakuwi.
8 A very great multitude spread their clothes on the road. Others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road.
Lipinga lya wantu wayarika nguwu zawu munjira, na wantu wamonga wadumula maputira ga mitera na waiyalika panjira.
9 The multitudes who went in front of him, and those who followed, kept shouting, “Hosanna to the son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!”
Lipinga lya wantu wamlongoleriti Yesu na wamonga wamfatiti kumbeli pawabotanga, “Kakwiswi Mwana gwa Dawudi! Mlungu kamtekeleri yakiza mulitawu lya Mtuwa! Kakwiswi Mlungu!”
10 When he had come into Jerusalem, all the city was stirred up, saying, “Who is this?”
Yesu pakaweriti kankwingira Yerusalemu, lushi loseri luweriti na shelekusheleku. Wantu wakosiyiti, “Hashi, ayu ndo gaa?”
11 The multitudes said, “This is the prophet, Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.”
Lipinga lya wantu liwankula, “Ayu ndo Yesu mbuyi gwa Mlungu, kalawa Nazareti isi ya Galilaya.”
12 Jesus entered into the temple of God and drove out all of those who sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the money changers’ tables and the seats of those who sold the doves.
Yesu kagenda kwingira Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu, kawawinga kunja wantu woseri yawaweriti wankuwuza na kuhemera vintu palii. Kazigalambuziya meza zawaweriti wankuvunjira mpiya na vigoda vya wantu yawaweriti wankuwuza wang'unda,
13 He said to them, “It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a den of robbers!”
na kawagambira, “Galembwa Mumalembu Mananagala kuwera Mlungu kalonga, ‘Numba nkulu yaneni hayishemwi numba ya sala.’ Kumbiti mwenga muyitenda mpanga ya wapoka!”
14 The lame and the blind came to him in the temple, and he healed them.
Wanalwisi na yawalewelekiti wamgendiriti Yesu Kunumba nkulu ya Mlungu na yomberi kawaponiziya.
15 But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children who were crying in the temple and saying, “Hosanna to the son of David!” they were indignant,
Su, watambika wakulu na wafunda wa Malagaliru wakalaliti pawawoniti vitwatira vya kulikangasha vyakatenditi na wana pawaweriti wankubotanga Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu pawalonga, “Kakwiswi Mwana gwa Dawudi!”
16 and said to him, “Do you hear what these are saying?” Jesus said to them, “Yes. Did you never read, ‘Out of the mouth of children and nursing babies, you have perfected praise’?”
Su womberi wamkosiya Yesu, “Hashi, gupikinira ntambu yawalonga?” Yesu kawankula, “Yina mpikanira. Hashi, hamwebetuli Malembu aga? ‘Guwafunditi wana na wana wanonu ntambu ya kukukwisa.’”
17 He left them and went out of the city to Bethany, and camped there.
Su, Yesu kawaleka na kagenda kunja kwa lushi na kagenda Betaniya na kalikaliti kulaa pashiru poseri.
18 Now in the morning, as he returned to the city, he was hungry.
Yesu pakaweriti kankuwuya mlushi mandawira putiputi, kaweriti na njala.
19 Seeing a fig tree by the road, he came to it and found nothing on it but leaves. He said to it, “Let there be no fruit from you forever!” Immediately the fig tree withered away. (aiōn g165)
Kaguwona mkuyu pampeku pa njira na kagugendera, kumbiti guweriti gwahera bwajubwaju loseri ira gwana mihamba hera. Su kagugambira mtera, “Hapeni guleri kayi mabwajubwaju!” Palaa palii mkuyu gulii guyuma. (aiōn g165)
20 When the disciples saw it, they marveled, saying, “How did the fig tree immediately wither away?”
Wafundwa pawaguwoniti na walikangasha, pawalonga, “Iwera hashi mkuyu agu guyuma kanongola?”
21 Jesus answered them, “Most certainly I tell you, if you have faith and don’t doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you told this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ it would be done.
Yesu kawankula, “Nakaka nuwagambirani, handa pamuwera na njimiru pota na lyoga, hamuwezi kutenda ntambu yantenditi kwa mkuyu agu na kwa hangu ndiri hera kumbiti ata hamuwezi kulugambira lugongu, ‘Gutupuki gukalidibiziyi gumweni mulitanda,’ na hayitendeki.
22 All things, whatever you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.”
Handa pamwajimira, hampananwi shoseri shamluwa kwa Mlungu.”
23 When he had come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to him as he was teaching, and said, “By what authority do you do these things? Who gave you this authority?”
Yesu kingiriti Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu na kaweriti kankufunda. Watambika wakulu na wazewi wamwiziriti Yesu na kumkosiya, “Hashi, gutenda vitwatira avi kwa uwezu wa gaa? Hashi, ndo gaa yakakupanana uwezu awu?”
24 Jesus answered them, “I also will ask you one question, which if you tell me, I likewise will tell you by what authority I do these things.
Yesu kawankula, “Naneni hanuwakosiyi likosiwu limu na pamunankula, su naneni hanuwagambirani ntenda vitwatira avi kwa uwezu wa gaa.
25 The baptism of John, where was it from? From heaven or from men?” They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will ask us, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’
Nuwakosiya, ‘Hashi, uwezu wa Yohani Mbatiza ulawiti kwagaa? Hashi, ulawiti kumpindi ama kwa wantu?’” Kumbiti wanjiti kulitakuziyana weni, “Hatulongi ashi? Handa patutakula, ‘Ulawiti kwa Mlungu,’ yomberi hakatukosiyi, ‘Su, iwera hashi mumjimiriti ndiri Yohani?’
26 But if we say, ‘From men,’ we fear the multitude, for all hold John as a prophet.”
Kumbiti patulonga, ‘Ulawiti kwa wantu,’ tutira lipinga lya wantu toziya wantu woseri wavimana kuwera Yohani kaweriti mbuyi gwa Mlungu.”
27 They answered Jesus, and said, “We don’t know.” He also said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.
Su, wamwankula Yesu, “Tuvimana ndiri.” Yesu kawagambira, “Naneni viraa hapeni nuwagambiri ntenda vitwatira avi kwa uwezu wa gaa.
28 But what do you think? A man had two sons, and he came to the first, and said, ‘Son, go work today in my vineyard.’
“Vinu mwenga mulihola ashashi kwa shitwatira ashi? Kuweriti muntu yumu yakaweriti na wana wakuwi wawili. Yomberi kamgendiriti mkulu yumu na kulonga, ‘Mwana gwangu, leru gugendi gwakatendi lihengu mulirambu lya mizyabibu.’
29 He answered, ‘I will not,’ but afterward he changed his mind, and went.
Yomberi kamwankula, ‘Hapeni ng'endi,’ kumbiti shakapanu kagenda kutenda lihengu.
30 He came to the second, and said the same thing. He answered, ‘I’m going, sir,’ but he didn’t go.
Shakapanu tati ulii kamgendera mwana gwakuwi yumonga kamgambiriti ntambu ilii. Yomberi kamwankula, ‘Yina tati hang'endi,’ kumbiti kagenditi ndiri.
31 Which of the two did the will of his father?” They said to him, “The first.” Jesus said to them, “Most certainly I tell you that the tax collectors and the prostitutes are entering into God’s Kingdom before you.
Hashi, pa wawili awa gaa yakatenditi gakafiriti tati gwakuwi?” Womberi wamwankula, “Uliya mwana gwa kwanja.” Su, Yesu kawagambira, “Nuwagambirani nakaka, watola kodi na wandiyandiya hawawalonguleri kugenda kwingira Muufalumi wa Mlungu.
32 For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you didn’t believe him; but the tax collectors and the prostitutes believed him. When you saw it, you didn’t even repent afterward, that you might believe him.
Toziya Yohani Mbatiza kiziti kwa mwenga kawalanguziya njira ya kulikala ya kumfiriziya Mlungu na mwenga mumjimira ndiri, kumbiti watola kodi na wandiyandiya wamjimiriti. Ata pamwoniti goseri aga, mwenga mlekiti ndiri vidoda vyamtenda na kumjimira yomberi.”
33 “Hear another parable. There was a man who was a master of a household who planted a vineyard, set a hedge about it, dug a wine press in it, built a tower, leased it out to farmers, and went into another country.
Yesu kalonga, “Mpikaniri mfanu gumonga. Kuweriti na muntu yakaweriti na lirambu, ndo mweni yakalimiti mizyabibu, katindiziya lipamanda na kabawa linegu lya kukamira zyabibu na kanyawiti liringu lya kulolelera. Shakapanu lirambu lya mizyabibu lilii kaliyazimira kwa walimaji, mweni kagenda mwanja gwa kutali.
34 When the season for the fruit came near, he sent his servants to the farmers to receive his fruit.
Shipindi sha kubenanga pashisokiti, kawatumiti wantumintumi wakuwi kwa walimaji walii, su watoli semu yakuwi yawabeniti.
35 The farmers took his servants, beat one, killed another, and stoned another.
Walimaji walii wawakamula wantumintumi wakuwi, yumu wamkomanga, yumonga wamlaga na yumonga wamlaga kwa kumgumanga mabuwi.
36 Again, he sent other servants more than the first; and they treated them the same way.
Muntu ulii kawatuma kayi wantumintumi wamonga wavuwa, kuliku wa kwanja, walimaji walii watenda ntambu ira ilii.
37 But afterward he sent to them his son, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’
Upeleru kamtuma mwana gwakuwi kugenda kwa womberi pakalihola, ‘Nakaka hawampikiniri mwana gwangu.’
38 But the farmers, when they saw the son, said among themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him and seize his inheritance.’
Kumbiti walimaji walii pawamwoniti mwana gwakuwi, walitakuziyana weni kwa weni, ‘Ayu ndo muhala gwakuwi. Mwizi tumlagi na uhala wakuwi hauweri watwenga!’
39 So they took him and threw him out of the vineyard, then killed him.
Su, wambata na wamlaviya kunja kulirambu lilii lya mizyabibu na wamlaga.”
40 When therefore the lord of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those farmers?”
Yesu kawakosiya, “Vinu, mweni kana lirambu lya mizyabibu pakiza, hakawatendi hashi walimaji walii?”
41 They told him, “He will miserably destroy those miserable men, and will lease out the vineyard to other farmers who will give him the fruit in its season.”
Womberi wamwakula, “Hakawalagi woseri yawatenditi vidoda na lirambu lilii hakawapanani walimaji wamonga, ndo weni hawamupanani semu yakuwi yawavibena kwa shipindi sha kubenanga.”
42 Jesus said to them, “Did you never read in the Scriptures, ‘The stone which the builders rejected was made the head of the corner. This was from the Lord. It is marvelous in our eyes’?
Yesu kawagambira, “Hashi, hamwebetuli shawalembiti Mumalembu Managala? ‘Libuwi lyawalilemiti wanyawa numba, vinu liwera libuwi lyaliwera na mana nentu kuliku mabuwi goseri. Mtuwa ndo yakatenditi shitwatira ashi, shitwatira sha kulikangasha nentu kwa twenga!’”
43 “Therefore I tell you, God’s Kingdom will be taken away from you and will be given to a nation producing its fruit.
Yesu kongera kutakula, “Su nuwagambirani, Ufalumi wa Mlungu hawawawusiyi kwa mwenga na kuwapanani wantu yawalera mabwajubwaju gaherepa.
44 He who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but on whomever it will fall, it will scatter him as dust.”
Yoseri yakaguwa pa libuwi ali hakamegeki vipandi vipandi na libuwi palimguwira muntu yoseri, halimupekesi.”
45 When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they perceived that he spoke about them.
Watambika wakulu na Mafalisayu pawapikaniriti mifanu ya Yesu na wavimaniti kuwera yomberi kaweriti kankuwalonga weni.
46 When they sought to seize him, they feared the multitudes, because they considered him to be a prophet.
Su wajeriti kusakula ntambu ya kumkamula Yesu. Kumbiti womberi watiriti lipinga lya wantu lyawamaniti kuwera Yesu ndo mbuyi gwa Mlungu.
