Matthew 20
1 “For the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who was the master of a household, who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard.
Bwami bwa kwilu ngatubukoshanisha cisa. Muntu walanyamuka mumene mene kuya kulemba beshikusebensa mulibala lyakendi.
2 When he had agreed with the laborers for a denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard.
Balasuminishana kubafolesha lyali limo lya silifa lyelela kufoleshewa pa busuba, nekubatuma kulibala lyakendi.
3 He went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace.
Cindi ca muma 9 koloko walacana nabambi kabali bekala pamusena wa makwebo babula ncito.
4 He said to them, ‘You also go into the vineyard, and whatever is right I will give you.’ So they went their way.
Naboyo walabambileti, “Ne njamwe kamuyani kulibala lyakame lya maila, nindimufoleshe mwakwelana.”
5 Again he went out about the sixth and the ninth hour, and did likewise.
Naboyo balaya. Cindi ca munshi, kayi ne cindi camuma 3 koloko mansailo. Muntu usa walalemba basebenshi nabambi ne kubatuma kulibala lyakendi lya maila.
6 About the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing idle. He said to them, ‘Why do you stand here all day idle?’
Kayi camuma 5 koloko mansailo, walacana bantu nabambi kabali bekala. Walabepusheti, “Mwekalilacani lisuba lyonse kwakubula ncito?”
7 “They said to him, ‘Because no one has hired us.’ “He said to them, ‘You also go into the vineyard, and you will receive whatever is right.’
Balo balamukumbuleti, “Paliya muntu latwingishiko ncito sobwe.” Naboyo walabambileti, “Ne njamwe kamuyani ku libala lyakame.”
8 “When evening had come, the lord of the vineyard said to his manager, ‘Call the laborers and pay them their wages, beginning from the last to the first.’
Mansailo lisuba kaliya kwibila, mwine libala walambila Kapitawo wakendi, “Bakuwe basebenshi bonse, ubafoleshe. Utatikile abo balengili ncito mu ma 5 koloko, basa batanguna kwingila ncito beti bashalilile.”
9 “When those who were hired at about the eleventh hour came, they each received a denarius.
Mpobalesa basa balengila ncito cindi ca 5 koloko mansailo uliyense walafola lyali limo lya silifa, lyelela kufeleshewa pa ncito ya busuba bumo.
10 When the first came, they supposed that they would receive more; and they likewise each received a denarius.
Lino mpobalesa basa balatanguna, balo balayeyeti nibafole mali angi, nomba uliyense walafola lyali limo lyelela kufoleshewa pa ncito ya busuba bumo.
11 When they received it, they murmured against the master of the household,
Nomba nabo pakufola balatatika kutongaukila mwine libala,
12 saying, ‘These last have spent one hour, and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat!’
balambeti, “Ha! Banetu balengili ncito lino lino, balasebensowa kwa ola limo, cilyeconi mulabafoleshe kwelana ne njafwe, kakuli afwe tulafu misana ne ncito, lumwi lulatupwili pamubili!”
13 “But he answered one of them, ‘Friend, I am doing you no wrong. Didn’t you agree with me for a denarius?
Nomba nendi mwine libala walamukumbuleti, “Obe ndo, ndiya kukwibilapo sobwe, sena ntetwalasuminishana lyali limo lya silifa pa busuba?
14 Take that which is yours, and go your way. It is my desire to give to this last just as much as to you.
Manta lyali lyakobe, koya. Njame ndemwine ndayeye kwambeti mfoleshe beshikushalila mwakwelanika nenjobe.
15 Isn’t it lawful for me to do what I want to with what I own? Or is your eye evil, because I am good?’
Sena nkandasunguluka mwangofu pabintu byakame kwinsa mbuli mondayandilinga? Sena ulepilwa pakwinga ndaina moyo pakutasalulula pakufolesha?”
16 So the last will be first, and the first last. For many are called, but few are chosen.”
Neco Yesu pakupwililisha walambeti, “Bakunyuma nibakabe kuntangu, kayi bakuntangu nibakabe kunyuma.”
17 As Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples aside, and on the way he said to them,
Pacindi Yesu mpwalikuya ku Yelusalemu, walabatwala palubasu beshikwiya bakendi likumi ne babili, ne kubambileti,
18 “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests and scribes, and they will condemn him to death,
“Ee, tuli pabulwendo bwakuya ku Yelusalemu, nomba kopeloko Mwa Muntu nakatwalwe kuba makulene beshimilumbo, ne beshikwiyisha milawo ya Mose. Nibakamomboloshe ne kusuminishaneti afwe,
19 and will hand him over to the Gentiles to mock, to scourge, and to crucify; and the third day he will be raised up.”
kayi nibakamutwale kubantu bamishobo naimbi, beti bakamunyanshe, ne kumukwapula, ne kumupopa palusanda. Nomba pabusuba bwatutatu nendi nakapundushiwe kubafu.”
20 Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to him with her sons, kneeling and asking a certain thing of him.
Muka Sebedayo ne bana bendi babili balesa kuli Yesu, walasuntama ne kumusengeti abenshileko kantu kalikonse nketi basenge.
21 He said to her, “What do you want?” She said to him, “Command that these, my two sons, may sit, one on your right hand and one on your left hand, in your Kingdom.”
Yesu walamwipusheti, “Mulayandanga cani mama?” Uyu mutukashi walambeti, “Kamunshomeshesha kwambeti, banabame aba, umo akekale kucikasa cenu cakululyo, naumbi kucikasa cakucipiko mu Bwami bwenu.”
22 But Jesus answered, “You don’t know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?” They said to him, “We are able.”
Nomba nendi Yesu walakumbuleti, “Nkamucinshi ncomulasengenga, Sena ngamucikonsha kunwina pamo mu nkomeshi yamapensho njoti nwinemo?” Bonse balambeti, “Ee, ngatucikonsha.”
23 He said to them, “You will indeed drink my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with; but to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give, but it is for whom it has been prepared by my Father.”
Yesu walambeti, “Ee, nimukanwe munkomeshiyo, nomba ame ndiya ngofu shakusala uyo eti akekale kucikasa cakame cakululyo, nambi kucikasa cakucipiko, Bata endibo beti bakape misena ilico kubantu abo mbobabambila.”
24 When the ten heard it, they were indignant with the two brothers.
Mpobalanyumfwako bali likumi basa, balakalalila basa babili pabukwabo.
25 But Jesus summoned them, and said, “You know that the rulers of the nations lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.
Yesu walabakuwa beshikwiya bakendi bonse ne kubambileti, “Mucinsheti bendeleshi ba bantu ba mishobo naimbi bakute kulyela masuku pamitwi ya bantu babo, ne kubonesha ngofu shabo pabantu.
26 It shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant.
Nomba nkacelela kubeco pakati penu sobwe, pali njamwe uliyense layandanga kuba mukulene, abe musebenshi wenu.”
27 Whoever desires to be first among you shall be your bondservant,
“Kayi uliyense layandanga kuba mutangunishi pakati penu, abe musha wenu.
28 even as the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
Kamubani mbuli Mwana Muntu utasuni kusebenselwa, nsombi kusebensela bantu, ne kubenga buyumi bwakendi kulubula bantu bangi.”
29 As they went out from Jericho, a great multitude followed him.
Yesu ne beshikwiya bakendi mpobalikufuma mu munshi wa Yeliko, bantu bangi balikumukonkela.
30 Behold, two blind men sitting by the road, when they heard that Jesus was passing by, cried out, “Lord, have mercy on us, you son of David!”
Bantu babili bashipilwa balikuba bekala mumbali mwa nshila balanyumfweti Yesu lapitinga munshila, balatatika kubilikisha, “Nkambo omwanendi Dafeti, kamutunyumfwilako nkumbo.”
31 The multitude rebuked them, telling them that they should be quiet, but they cried out even more, “Lord, have mercy on us, you son of David!”
Basa bantu balayanda kubamweneka mwakubacancilila, nsombi balo empobalapitilisha kolobesha, “Nkambo omwanendi Dafeti, kamutunyumfwilako nkumbo.”
32 Jesus stood still and called them, and asked, “What do you want me to do for you?”
Yesu walemana, walabakuwa, ne kubepusheti, “Inga mulayandanga ndimwinshile cani?”
33 They told him, “Lord, that our eyes may be opened.”
Balo balakumbuleti, “Nkambo tulayandanga tutatike kubona.”
34 Jesus, being moved with compassion, touched their eyes; and immediately their eyes received their sight, and they followed him.
Yesu walabanyumfwila luse, walabekata pamenso, popelapo balatatika kubona, naboyo balamukonkela.
