Matthew 14
1 At that time did Herod the tetrarch hear the fame of Jesus,
Kele katema ko chilongola che Helode ŵapilikene ngani si Che Yesu.
2 and said to his servants, 'This is John the Baptist, he did rise from the dead, and because of this the mighty energies are working in him.'
Nipele, ŵaasalile achikatumetume ŵao, “Jwele mundu ni che Yohana Ŵakubatisya asyuchile mchiwa, lyele ni ligongo machili gakupanganya yakusimonjeka gakupanganya masengo nkati mwakwe.”
3 For Herod having laid hold on John, did bind him, and did put him in prison, because of Herodias his brother Philip's wife,
Che Helode ni juŵankamwile che Yohana ni kuntaŵa kwa minyolo, ŵammisile mu nyuumba jakutaŵilwa kwa ligongo lya che Helodia, ŵankwawo che Filipo nkulugwe.
4 for John was saying to him, 'It is not lawful to thee to have her,'
Ligongo che Yohana ŵansalile che Helode kuti, “Ngankusachilwa kunnombela jwele jwankongwe jo!”
5 and, willing to kill him, he feared the multitude, because as a prophet they were holding him.
Che Helode ŵasachile kwaulaga che Yohana, nambo ŵajogwepe ŵandu pakuŵa kukwao che Yohana ŵaliji jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu.
6 But the birthday of Herod being kept, the daughter of Herodias danced in the midst, and did please Herod,
Nipele, pa chindimba cha lyuŵa lyekulungwa lya kupagwa kwao che Helode, mwali jwao che Helodia ŵatyasile mmbujo mwa achalendo ni mwali jula ŵaasengwasisye che Helode,
7 whereupon with an oath he professed to give her whatever she might ask.
mpaka ŵalanjile achitiji, “Ngulumbilila, chinampe chachili chose chachinsache.”
8 And she having been instigated by her mother — 'Give me (says she) here upon a plate the head of John the Baptist;
Nombejo ŵanyenjekwe ni achikulugwe, ŵatite, “Mumbeje panopano ntwe u che Yohana Ŵakubatisya mumbale.”
9 and the king was grieved, but because of the oaths and of those reclining with him, he commanded [it] to be given;
Mwenye ŵasupwiche, nambo kwa ligongo lya kulumbila kwao ni ligongo lya achalendo ŵaŵatemi pamo nawo, ŵalajisye apegwe.
10 and having sent, he beheaded John in the prison,
Nipele, che Helode ŵannajisye mundu ku nyuumba ja kutaŵila ŵandu kuti ŵakate che Yohana ntwe.
11 and his head was brought upon a plate, and was given to the damsel, and she brought [it] nigh to her mother.
Ntwe wakwe wajigalikwe mu mbale ni kumpa mwali, nombejo ŵampele achikulugwe.
12 And his disciples having come, took up the body, and buried it, and having come, they told Jesus,
Ŵakulijiganya ŵa che Yohana ŵaiche, ŵachijigele chiilu chakwe, ŵachisichile. Nipele ŵajawile kukwasalila Che Yesu.
13 and Jesus having heard, withdrew thence in a boat to a desolate place by himself, and the multitudes having heard did follow him on land from the cities.
Che Yesu paŵapilikene ngani syo, ŵatyosile pepala kwa ngalaŵa, ŵajawile pantemela pajikape. Nambo ŵandu paŵapilikene, ŵakuiye kwa makongolo achityochelaga mmisi jao.
14 And Jesus having come forth, saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion upon them, and did heal their infirm;
Nipele, paŵaiche kumbwani, ŵauweni mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu, ŵakolele chanasa ni ŵalamisye ŵakulwala ŵao.
15 and evening having come, his disciples came to him, saying, 'The place is desolate, and the hour hath now past, let away the multitudes that, having gone to the villages, they may buy to themselves food.'
Pakwaswele, ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaichilile ni kwasalila, “Apano patuli pa mwikonde ni sambano kuswele. Sambano, mwalanje ŵandu wo kuti ajaule mmisinda akalisumile chakulya.”
16 And Jesus said to them, 'They have no need to go away — give ye them to eat.'
Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Nganakola ligongo lya kwaula, ŵanyamwe mwape chakulya.”
17 And they say to him, 'We have not here except five loaves, and two fishes.'
Nambo ŵanyawo ŵanjanjile, “Tukwete mikate nsano pe ni somba siŵili.”
18 And he said, 'Bring ye them to me hither.'
Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Njise nawo apano.”
19 And having commanded the multitudes to recline upon the grass, and having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, having looked up to the heaven, he did bless, and having broken, he gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes,
Ŵaasalile ŵandu kuti atame paasi pa manyasi. Nipele, Che Yesu ŵajigele mikate nsano ni somba sila, ŵalolite kwinani, ŵatogolele Akunnungu ni kugaŵanya ni kwapa ŵakulijiganya mikate jo, nombewo ŵagaŵenye ŵandu.
20 and they did all eat, and were filled, and they took up what was over of the broken pieces twelve hand-baskets full;
Ŵalile wose, ŵajikwite. Nipele ŵakulijiganya ŵalokwete sigasi sya mikate jila, ŵagumbesye itundu kumi na mbili.
21 and those eating were about five thousand men, apart from women and children.
Wose ŵaŵalile ŵala ŵaliji achalume mpela elufu tano, pangaŵalanjikwa achimmasyeto ni ŵanache.
22 And immediately Jesus constrained his disciples to go into the boat, and to go before him to the other side, till he might let away the multitudes;
Pangakaŵa, Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao akwele mu ngalaŵa kuti alongolele peesi litanda asyene aninkujilanga mipingo ja ŵandu.
23 and having let away the multitudes, he went up to the mountain by himself to pray, and evening having come, he was there alone,
Paŵamasile kwalanga ŵandu, ŵakwesile kwitumbi ali jikape kukupopela. Pakwaswele, ŵelewo ŵaliji kweleko jikape.
24 and the boat was now in the midst of the sea, distressed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.
Kele katema ko ngalaŵa jo jaŵandichile pambindikati litanda, nambo jaliji nkupungunyikwa kwannope ni matumbela pakuŵa mbungo jaliji nkujiputa.
25 And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went away to them, walking upon the sea,
Kumasikusiku, Che Yesu ŵaichile ŵakulijiganya ŵao achendaga mmeesi.
26 and the disciples having seen him walking upon the sea, were troubled saying — 'It is an apparition,' and from the fear they cried out;
Ŵakulijiganya ŵao paŵaweni achendaga mmeesi, ŵajogwepe nnope ni ŵatite, “Lili lilaika!” Ŵagumilangaga kwa woga.
27 and immediately Jesus spake to them, saying, 'Be of good courage, I am [he], be not afraid.'
Papopo, Che Yesu ŵasalile, “Muusimane ntima, ndili une, nkajogopa!”
28 And Peter answering him said, 'Sir, if it is thou, bid me come to thee upon the waters;'
Che Petulo ŵatite, “Ambuje mwaŵaga mmwe, muusalile iche kukwenu njendaga mmeesi.”
29 and he said, 'Come;' and having gone down from the boat, Peter walked upon the waters to come unto Jesus,
Che Yesu ŵatite, “Njise.” Nipele che Petulo ŵatulwiche mu ngalaŵa, ŵajesile mmeesi, kwajaulila Che Yesu.
30 but seeing the wind vehement, he was afraid, and having begun to sink, he cried out, saying, 'Sir, save me.'
Nambo paŵajiweni mbungo, ŵajogwepe ni ŵatandite kutiŵila, ŵagumisile achitiji, “Ambuje mungulupusye!”
31 And immediately Jesus, having stretched forth the hand, laid hold of him, and saith to him, 'Little faith! for what didst thou waver?'
Papopo Che Yesu ŵagolwesye nkono wao, ŵankamwile ni ŵansalile, “Mmwe ŵa chikulupi chachinandi, ligongo chi nkukola lipamba?”
32 and they having gone to the boat the wind lulled,
Nipele, wose ŵakwesile mu ngalaŵa, ni mbungo jatulele.
33 and those in the boat having come, did bow to him, saying, 'Truly — God's Son art thou.'
Nombe, wose ŵaŵaliji mu ngalaŵa ŵatindiŵalile ni kwakotamila, achitiji, “Isyene alakwe ndi Mwana jwa Akunnungu.”
34 And having passed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret,
Ŵajombweche litanda ni ŵaiche ku msinda wa ku Genesaleti.
35 and having recognized him, the men of that place sent forth to all that region round about, and they brought to him all who were ill,
Ŵandu ŵa pepala paŵaamanyi Che Yesu, ŵajenesye ngani muumbali mose mumwasyungwile. Nipele, ŵannyichisye ŵakulwala wose,
36 and were calling on him that they might only touch the fringe of his garment, and as many as did touch were saved.
ni ŵachondelele kuti akwaye atamuno lujenje lya mwinjilo ŵao. Nombe wose ŵaŵankwaiye ŵalamile.
