Mathayo 10
1 Nake Jesũ nĩetire arutwo ake ikũmi na eerĩ moke harĩ we, nake akĩmahe ũhoti wa kũingata ngoma thũku na kũhonia mĩrimũ yothe na ndwari ciothe.
And he called his twelve disciples, and gave them power over unclean spirits to cast them out, and to cure every disease and infirmity.
2 Maya nĩmo marĩĩtwa ma arutwo acio ikũmi na eerĩ: Wa mbere nĩ Simoni (ũrĩa wĩtagwo Petero), na mũrũ wa nyina Anderea; na Jakubu mũrũ wa Zebedi, na mũrũ wa nyina Johana;
Now, of the twelve apostles the names are these: the first of them, Shemun who is called Kipha, and Andreas his brother, and Jakubbar-Zabdai, and Juchanon his brother,
3 na Filipu, na Baritholomayo; na Toma, na Mathayo ũrĩa mwĩtia wa mbeeca cia igooti; na Jakubu mũrũ wa Alifayo, na Thadayo;
and Philipos, and Bar-Tholmai, and Thoma, and Mathai the tribute-gatherer, and Jakubbar-Chalphai, and Labi who was surnamed Thadai,
4 na Simoni ũrĩa Mũzelote, na Judasi Mũisikariota, ũrĩa wamũkunyanĩire.
and Shemun the zealous, and Jihuda S'carjuta, he who betrayed him.
5 Aya ikũmi na eerĩ nĩo Jesũ aatũmire na akĩmataara ũũ: “Mũtigathiĩ kũrĩ andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ kana mũtoonye itũũra rĩa Asamaria.
These twelve Jeshu sent, and commanded them and said, In the way of the heathens go not, and into the city of the Shomroyee do not enter;
6 Nĩ kaba mũthiĩ kũrĩ ngʼondu iria ciũrĩte cia Isiraeli.
but go rather unto the sheep which have perished from the house of Isroel.
7 Mwathiĩ-rĩ, hunjagiai ndũmĩrĩri ĩno: ‘Ũthamaki wa igũrũ nĩũkuhĩrĩirie.’
And as you go, proclaim and say that the kingdom of heaven hath drawn near.
8 Honagiai andũ arĩa arũaru, na mũriũkagie arĩa akuũ, na mũtheragie arĩa marĩ na mangũ, na mũingatage ndaimono. Mũheetwo tũhũ, heanagai tũhũ.
The diseased heal, the lepers cleanse, the dead raise, and the demons cast forth. Freely you have received, freely give.
9 Mũtigekuuĩre thahabu, kana betha, kana gĩcango mĩcibi-inĩ yanyu;
Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses,
10 O na ningĩ mũtigekuuĩre mũhuko rũgendo-inĩ, kana nguo igĩrĩ, kana iraatũ, kana mũtirima; nĩgũkorwo mũruti wa wĩra nĩabataire kũheo gĩa kũmũtũũria muoyo.
nor a wallet for the road; neither two tunics, nor sandals, nor staff: for worthy is the workman of his meat.
11 “Itũũra o rĩothe kana gatũũra karĩa mũngĩtoonya-rĩ, tuĩriai mũmenye mũndũ ũrĩa mwagĩrĩru kuo, mũikare gwake nginya rĩrĩa mũkoima kuo.
And into whatsoever city or town you enter, inquire who is worthy in it, and there be till you depart.
12 Mwatoonya mũciĩ ũcio-rĩ, geithagiai ene kuo.
And when you enter into the house, invoke peace for the house;
13 Angĩkorwo mũciĩ ũcio nĩwagĩrĩire-rĩ, ũrathimei na thayũ wanyu; angĩkorwo ndwagĩrĩire-rĩ, rekei kĩrathimo kĩanyu kĩmũcookerere.
and if the house be worthy, your peace shall come upon it; but if it be not worthy, your peace upon yourselves shall revert.
14 Mũndũ o wothe angĩrega kũmũnyiita ũgeni kana arege gũthikĩrĩria ciugo cianyu-rĩ, mũkiuma mũciĩ ũcio kana itũũra rĩu-rĩ, mũkaaribariba magũrũ manyu nĩguo rũkũngũ rũitĩke.
But whosoever doth not receive you or hear your words, when you depart from that house, or that town, set free the dust from your feet.
15 Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma ituĩro rĩa itũũra rĩu rĩgaakorwo rĩrĩ inene gũkĩra rĩa Sodomu na Gomora mũthenya ũrĩa wa ciira.
And, Amen, I say unto you, that for the land of Sadum and of Amura it will be more tolerable, in the day of the judgment, than for that city.
16 Atĩrĩrĩ ndamũtũma o ta ngʼondu gatagatĩ ka njũũi. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, gĩai na ũũgĩ ta nyoka, na mwage ũũru ta ndutura.
LO, I send you forth as sheep among wolves: be you, therefore, wise as serpents and guileless as doves.
17 “Mwĩmenyererei andũ; tondũ nĩmakamũneana ciama-inĩ, na mamũhũũre na iboko thunagogi-inĩ ciao.
But beware of the sons of men; for, delivering you to the house of judgments, in their synagogues they will scourge you,
18 Nĩ ũndũ wa ũhoro wakwa-rĩ, nĩmũgatwarwo mbere ya aathani na athamaki nĩgeetha mũtuĩke aira kũrĩ o na kũrĩ andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ.
and before governors and kings bring you, on my account, for the testimony concerning them and the gentiles.
19 No rĩrĩa makaamũnyiita-rĩ, mũtikanetange nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa mũkoiga kana ũrĩa mũgaacookia. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmũkeerwo ũrĩa mũkoiga,
But when they deliver you up, be not solicitous how or what you shall speak; for it is given you in that hour what you shall speak.
20 nĩgũkorwo ti inyuĩ mũgaakorwo mũkĩaria, no nĩ Roho wa Ithe wanyu ũkaaria arĩ thĩinĩ wanyu.
For it is not you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking in you.
21 “Mũndũ nĩagakunyanĩra mũrũ wa nyina ooragwo, na ithe wa mũndũ akunyanĩre mwana wake; ciana nĩikaremera aciari a cio na imoragithie.
But the brother shall deliver his brother unto death, and the father his son; and the sons shall rise up against their fathers, and shall slay them.
22 Andũ othe nĩmakamũmena nĩ ũndũ wakwa, no ũrĩa ũgaakirĩrĩria nginya hĩndĩ ya mũthia nĩakahonoka.
And you shall be abhorred by all men on account of my name: but he who shall persevere until the end, he shall be saved.
23 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mwanyariirwo itũũra-inĩ rĩmwe-rĩ, ũrĩrai rĩrĩa rĩngĩ. Ngũmwĩra na ma atĩ, mũtigaakorwo mũthiĩte matũũra mothe ma Isiraeli, Mũrũ wa Mũndũ atookĩte.
When they persecute you in this city, escape to the other; for, Amen I say unto you, that you shall not have completed all the cities of the house of Isroel, till the Son of man shall come.
24 “Mũrutwo ti mũnene kũrĩ mũrutani wake, o na ndungata ti nene kũrĩ mũmĩathi.
The disciple is not greater than his master, nor the servant than his lord.
25 Nĩkũiganĩire mũrutwo aiganane na mũrutani wake, o na ndungata ĩiganane na mũmĩathi. Angĩkorwo mwene nyũmba nĩetĩtwo Beelizebuli-rĩ, githĩ andũ a nyũmba yake matigetwo marĩĩtwa mooru gũkĩra rĩu!
It sufficeth the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If the master of the house they have called Beelzebub, how much more his house-sons!
26 “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, mũtikametigĩre. Gũtirĩ ũndũ mũhithanie ũtakaguũrio, kana ũndũ mũhithe ũtakamenyeka.
You shall not fear, therefore, from them; for there is nothing covered which shall not be revealed, nor secret which shall not be known.
27 Ũrĩa ngũmwĩra nduma-inĩ-rĩ, wariei mũthenya barigici, na ũrĩa warĩtio na mĩheehũ matũ-inĩ manyu-rĩ, wanĩrĩrei mũrĩ nyũmba-igũrũ.
Whatsoever I say to you in darkness, declare you in the light; and whatsoever you have heard in your ears, proclaim upon the roofs.
28 Mũtigetigĩre arĩa moragaga o mwĩrĩ, no matingĩhota kũũraga ngoro. Nĩ kaba gwĩtigĩra Ũrĩa ũngĩananga ngoro na mwĩrĩ kũu Jehanamu. (Geenna g1067)
And fear not them who kill the body, but the soul cannot kill; but fear rather One who the soul and the body can destroy in gihano. (Geenna g1067)
29 Githĩ tũnyoni twĩrĩ tũtiendagio thendi ĩmwe? No gũtirĩ o na kamwe gatuo kangĩgũa thĩ Ithe wanyu atetĩkĩrĩte.
Are not two sparrows sold for an asor? yet one of them, without your Father, doth not fall upon the earth.
30 O na njuĩrĩ cianyu cia mũtwe nĩndare.
But of you, also, the hairs of your head are all numbered.
31 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũtigetigĩre; mũrĩ a bata gũkĩra tũnyoni tũingĩ.
Fear not, therefore; than many sparrows more precious are you.
32 “Ũrĩa wothe ũkaanyumbũra mbere ya andũ, o na niĩ nĩngamumbũra mbere ya Baba ũrĩa ũrĩ kũu igũrũ.
Every man, therefore, who shall confess me before the sons of men, I myself will confess him also before my Father who is in heaven.
33 No ũrĩa wothe ũkangaana mbere ya andũ, na niĩ nĩngamũkaana mbere ya Baba ũrĩa ũrĩ igũrũ.
But whosoever shall deny me before the sons of men, I also will deny him, I, before my Father who is in heaven.
34 “Mũtigeciirie atĩ njũkĩte kũrehe thayũ gũkũ thĩ. Ndiokire kũrehe thayũ, no ndookire kũrehe rũhiũ rwa njora.
EXPECT not that I have come to send forth peace on the earth; I have not come to send forth peace, but the sword.
35 Nĩgũkorwo njũkĩte gũtũma “‘mũndũ okanĩrĩre na ithe, na mũirĩtu okanĩrĩre na nyina, nake mũtumia okanĩrĩre na nyaciarawe;
For I have come to cause a man to separate from his father, and a daughter from her mother, and a daughter-in-law from her mother-in-law;
36 thũ cia mũndũ igaakorwo irĩ andũ a nyũmba yake kĩũmbe.’
and the adversaries of a man (to be) his own house-sons.
37 “Ũrĩa wothe wendete ithe kana nyina kũngĩra ndagĩrĩire gũtuĩka wakwa; na ũrĩa wothe wendete mũriũ kana mwarĩ kũngĩra ndagĩrĩire gũtuĩka wakwa;
Whosoever loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy (of) me; and whosoever loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy (of) me.
38 nake ũrĩa wothe ũtagakuua mũtharaba wake wa kwambĩrwo aanũmĩrĩre ndagĩrĩire gũtuĩka wakwa.
And every one who taketh not his cross and cometh after me, is not worthy of me.
39 Ũrĩa wothe ũgeragia gũtũũria muoyo wake nĩakoorwo nĩguo; no ũrĩa wothe ũkoorwo nĩ muoyo wake nĩ ũndũ wakwa nĩakaũtũũria.
Whosoever will find his life shall lose it, and whosoever shall lose his life for my sake shall find it.
40 “Mũndũ ũrĩa ũmwamũkagĩra, nĩ niĩ amũkagĩra. Nake ũrĩa ũnyamũkagĩra, amũkagĩra ũrĩa wandũmire.
Whosoever receiveth you, receiveth me; and whosoever receiveth me, Him who sent me he receiveth.
41 Ũrĩa wothe ũkaamũkĩra mũnabii tondũ nĩ mũnabii, nĩakamũkĩra kĩheo kĩrĩa kĩheagwo mũnabii, nake ũrĩa wothe ũkaamũkĩra mũndũ mũthingu tondũ nĩ mũthingu-rĩ, nĩakamũkĩra kĩheo kĩrĩa kĩheagwo mũndũ mũthingu.
Whosoever entertaineth a prophet in the name of a prophet, the reward of a prophet receiveth. Whosoever entertaineth a just man in the name of a just man, the reward of the just man he receiveth.
42 Nake ũrĩa wothe ũheaga ũmwe wa aya anini o na gĩkombe kĩa maaĩ mahehu tondũ nĩ mũrutwo wakwa-rĩ, ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, ndakaaga kũheo kĩheo gĩake.”
And whosoever only giveth one of these little ones a cup of cold (waters) to drink in the name of a disciple, Amen, I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward.
