Mathayo 13
1 Mũthenya o ro ũcio-rĩ, Jesũ nĩoimire nyũmba agĩthiĩ agĩikara thĩ hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria.
The same day Jesus going out of the house, sat by the sea side.
2 Ikundi cia andũ aingĩ mũno ikĩũngana harĩa aarĩ nginya ĩgĩtũma atoonye gatarũ na agĩikara thĩ thĩinĩ wayo, nao andũ acio othe makĩrũgama hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria.
And great multitudes were gathered unto him, so that he went up into a boat and sat: and all the multitude stood on the shore.
3 Nake akĩmaruta maũndũ maingĩ na ngerekano, akĩmeera atĩrĩ: “Mũrĩmi nĩoimagarire akahure mbeũ ciake.
And he spoke to them many things in parables, saying: Behold the sower went forth to sow.
4 Na rĩrĩa aahuraga mbeũ icio-rĩ, imwe ikĩgũa mũkĩra-inĩ wa njĩra, nacio nyoni igĩũka ĩgĩcirĩa.
And whilst he soweth some fell by the way side, and the birds of the air came and ate them up.
5 Ingĩ ikĩgũa rũnyanjara-inĩ kũrĩa gũtaarĩ na tĩĩri mũingĩ. Nacio ikĩmera o narua tondũ tĩĩri ndwarĩ mũriku.
And other some fell upon stony ground, where they had not much earth: and they sprung up immediately, because they had no deepness of earth.
6 Na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa riũa rĩarire, rĩgĩcina mĩmera ĩyo, nayo ĩkĩũma tondũ ndĩarĩ na mĩri.
And when the sun was up they were scorched: and because they had not root, they withered away.
7 Na mbeũ ingĩ ikĩgũa mĩigua-inĩ, nayo mĩigua ĩgĩkũra, ĩgĩthararia mbeũ icio rĩrĩa ciamerire.
And others fell among thorns: and the thorns grew up and choked them.
8 Ingĩ nacio ikĩgũa tĩĩri-inĩ ũrĩa mũnoru, ikĩgĩa na maciaro imwe ĩgĩciara maita igana, iria ingĩ igĩciara maita mĩrongo ĩtandatũ, na iria ingĩ igĩciara maita mĩrongo ĩtatũ ma iria ciahaandirwo.
And others fell upon good ground: and they brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, and some thirtyfold.
9 Ũrĩa ũrĩ na matũ ma kũigua, nĩaigue.”
He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
10 Nao arutwo ake magĩũka kũrĩ we, makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Waragĩria andũ na ngerekano nĩkĩ?”
And his disciples came and said to him: Why speakest thou to them in parables?
11 Nake akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ nĩmũheetwo ũmenyo wa kũmenya hitho cia ũthamaki wa igũrũ, no-o matiheetwo.
Who answered and said to them: Because to you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven: but to them it is not given.
12 Ũrĩa wothe ũrĩ na indo nĩakoongererwo nyingĩ aingĩhie makĩria. Nake ũrĩa wothe ũtarĩ, nĩagatuunywo o na kĩrĩa arĩ nakĩo.
For he that hath, to him shall be given, and he shall abound: but he that hath not, from him shall be taken away that also which he hath.
13 Gĩkĩ nĩkĩo gĩtũmaga ndĩmaarĩrie na ngerekano: “Nĩ ũndũ o na gũkorwo nĩmoonaga-rĩ, mationaga; o na gũkorwo nĩmaiguaga-rĩ, matiiguaga kana makamenya.
Therefore do I speak to them in parables: because seeing they see not, and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
14 Nĩo makinyĩirwo nĩ ũhoro ũrĩa warathirwo nĩ mũnabii Isaia, rĩrĩa oigire atĩrĩ: “‘Kũigua mũgũtũũra mũiguaga, no mũtikaamenya ũndũ; kuona mũgũtũũra muonaga, no mũtigakuũkĩrwo.
And the prophecy of Isaias is fulfilled in them, who saith: By hearing you shall hear, and shall not understand: and seeing you shall see, and shall not perceive.
15 “‘Nĩgũkorwo ngoro cia andũ aya nĩ ngingitaru; matũ mao matiiguaga, na nĩmahingĩte maitho mao. Tondũ maahota kuona na maitho mao, na maigue na matũ mao, o na ngoro ciao igĩe na ũmenyo, manjookerere, na niĩ ndĩmahonie.’
For the heart of this people is grown gross, and with their ears they have been dull of hearing, and their eyes they have shut: lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.
16 No kũrathimwo nĩ maitho manyu tondũ nĩmoonaga, na matũ manyu tondũ nĩmaiguaga.
But blessed are your eyes, because they see, and your ears, because they hear.
17 Tondũ ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, anabii na andũ aingĩ athingu nĩmerirĩirie kuona maũndũ marĩa mũrona no-o matiamonire, na nĩmerirĩirie kũigua maũndũ marĩa mũraigua no matiamaiguire.
For, amen, I say to you, many prophets and just men have desired to see the things that you see, and have not seen them, and to hear the things that you hear and have not heard them.
18 “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ta iguai ngĩtaarĩria ũhoro wa ngerekano ĩyo ya mũhuri wa mbeũ:
Hear you therefore the parable of the sower.
19 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũndũ o wothe aigua ndũmĩrĩri ya ũthamaki na akaaga kũmĩmenya-rĩ, hĩndĩ ĩyo ũrĩa mũũru okaga akamũtunya kĩrĩa kĩhaande ngoro-inĩ yake. Ĩno nĩyo mbeũ ĩrĩa yahurirwo mũkĩra-inĩ wa njĩra.
When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, there cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart: this is he that received the seed by the way side.
20 Ũrĩa wamũkĩrire mbeũ ĩrĩa yagũire rũnyanjara-inĩ nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũiguaga kiugo, na o rĩmwe agakĩamũkĩra arĩ na gĩkeno.
And he that received the seed upon stony ground, is he that heareth the word, and immediately receiveth it with joy.
21 No tondũ ndarĩ mĩri-rĩ, aikaraga o kahinda kanini. Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa thĩĩna woka, kana kwagĩa na kĩnyariirano nĩ ũndũ wa kiugo-rĩ, agagĩtiganĩria o narua.
Yet hath he not root in himself, but is only for a time: and when there ariseth tribulation and persecution because of the word, he is presently scandalized.
22 Nake ũrĩa wamũkagĩra mbeũ ĩrĩa yagũire mĩigua-inĩ-rĩ, nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũiguaga kiugo, no mĩhangʼo ya mũtũũrĩre ũyũ, na kũheenererio nĩ ũtonga, igagĩthararia, ikagiria kĩgĩe na maciaro. (aiōn g165)
And he that received the seed among thorns, is he that heareth the word, and the care of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choketh up the word, and he becometh fruitless. (aiōn g165)
23 No ũrĩa wamũkĩrire mbeũ ĩrĩa yagũire tĩĩri-inĩ ũrĩa mũnoru-rĩ, nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũiguaga kiugo, na agakĩmenya. Nake agaciara maciaro, ũmwe akaruta maita igana, ũngĩ maita mĩrongo ĩtandatũ, na ũngĩ maita mĩrongo ĩtatũ ma mbeũ ĩrĩa yahaandĩtwo.”
But he that received the seed upon good ground, is he that heareth the word, and understandeth, and beareth fruit, and yieldeth the one an hundredfold, and another sixty, and another thirty.
24 Ningĩ Jesũ akĩmahe ngerekano ĩngĩ, akĩmeera atĩrĩ: “Ũthamaki wa igũrũ ũhaana ta mũndũ ũrĩa wahaandire mbeũ njega mũgũnda wake.
Another parable he proposed to them, saying: The kingdom of heaven is likened to a man that sowed good seeds in his field.
25 No rĩrĩa andũ othe maakomete-rĩ, thũ yake ĩgĩũka, ĩkĩhura itindiĩ thĩinĩ wa ngano, na ĩgĩĩthiĩra.
But while men were asleep, his enemy came and oversowed cockle among the wheat and went his way.
26 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ngano yamerire na igĩciara-rĩ, hĩndĩ ĩyo itindiĩ o narĩo rĩkĩonekana.
And when the blade was sprung up, and had brought forth fruit, then appeared also the cockle.
27 “Ndungata cia mwene mũgũnda igĩũka kũrĩ we, ikĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Mwathi witũ, githĩ ndwahaandire mbeũ njega mũgũnda waku? Kaĩ itindiĩ rĩkiumĩte kũ?’
And the servants of the goodman of the house coming said to him: Sir, didst thou not sow good seed in thy field? whence then hath it cockle?
28 “Agĩcookia atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩ mũndũ ũrĩ ũthũ na niĩ wekire ũguo.’ “Ndungata icio ikĩmũũria atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩũkwenda tũthiĩ, tũkarĩmunye?’
And he said to them: An enemy hath done this. And the servants said to him: Wilt thou that we go and gather it up?
29 “Nake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, ‘Aca, tondũ mũkĩmunya itindiĩ rĩu, mwahota kũrĩmunyanĩria na ngano.
And he said: No, lest perhaps gathering up the cockle, you root up the wheat also together with it.
30 Rekei ikũranĩre nginya hĩndĩ ya magetha. Hĩndĩ ĩyo-rĩ, nĩngeera agethi atĩrĩ: Ambai mũmunye itindiĩ na mũrĩohe itĩĩa, nĩguo rĩcinwo; mũcooke mũcookanĩrĩrie ngano, mũmĩige ikũmbĩ rĩakwa.’”
Suffer both to grow until the harvest, and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers: Gather up first the cockle, and bind it into bundles to burn, but the wheat gather ye into my barn.
31 Nĩamaheire ngerekano ĩngĩ, akĩmeera atĩrĩ: “Ũthamaki wa igũrũ ũtariĩ ta mbeũ ya karatarĩ, ĩrĩa mũndũ oire akĩhaanda mũgũnda wake.
Another parable he proposed unto them, saying: The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took and sowed in his field.
32 O na akorwo mbeũ ĩyo nĩyo nini mũno kũrĩ mbeũ ciothe-rĩ, rĩrĩa yakũra, nĩĩnenehaga kũrĩ mĩmera ĩrĩa ĩngĩ ya mũgũnda na ĩgatuĩka mũtĩ, nacio nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ igooka igaaka itara honge-inĩ ciaguo.”
Which is the least indeed of all seeds; but when it is grown up, it is greater than all herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come, and dwell in the branches thereof.
33 Agĩcooka akĩmahe ngerekano o ĩngĩ, akĩmeera atĩrĩ: “Ũthamaki wa igũrũ ũhaana ta ndawa ya kũimbia mĩgate ĩrĩa mũndũ-wa-nja oire na akĩmĩtukania na mũtu mũingĩ o nginya mũtu ũcio wothe ũkĩimbio nĩyo.”
Another parable he spoke to them: The kingdom of heaven is like to leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, until the whole was leavened.
34 Jesũ aaragĩria kĩrĩndĩ maũndũ macio mothe na ngerekano na ndaamaragĩria ũndũ o na ũmwe atekũhũthĩra ngerekano.
All these things Jesus spoke in parables to the multitudes: and without parables he did not speak to them.
35 Nĩguo ũhoro ũrĩa waaririo na kanua ka mũnabii ũhinge rĩrĩa oigire atĩrĩ: “Ngaatumũra kanua gakwa njarie na ngerekano, nĩngaaria maũndũ marĩa matũire marĩ mahithe kuuma rĩrĩa thĩ yombirwo.”
That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying: I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter things hidden from the foundation of the world.
36 Hĩndĩ ĩyo agĩtiga kĩrĩndĩ, agĩtoonya nyũmba. Arutwo ake magĩũka kũrĩ we, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Tũtaarĩrie ngerekano ya itindiĩ rĩrĩa rĩarĩ thĩinĩ wa mũgũnda.”
Then having sent away the multitudes, he came into the house, and his disciples came to him, saying: Expound to us the parable of the cockle of the field.
37 Nake akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩa wahaandire mbeũ njega nĩ Mũrũ wa Mũndũ.
Who made answer and said to them: He that soweth the good seed, is the Son of man.
38 Mũgũnda nĩ thĩ, nayo mbeũ njega nĩcio ciana cia ũthamaki. Itindiĩ nĩ ciana cia ũrĩa mũũru,
And the field, is the world. And the good seed are the children of the kingdom. And the cockle, are the children of the wicked one.
39 nayo thũ ĩrĩa ĩrĩhaandaga nĩ ũrĩa mũũru. Magetha nĩ ithirĩro rĩa mahinda maya, na agethi nĩ araika. (aiōn g165)
And the enemy that sowed them, is the devil. But the harvest is the end of the world. And the reapers are the angels. (aiōn g165)
40 “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio o ta ũrĩa itindiĩ rĩmunyagwo rĩgacinwo na mwaki-rĩ, ũguo noguo gũkahaana hĩndĩ ya ithirĩro rĩa mahinda maya. (aiōn g165)
Even as cockle therefore is gathered up, and burnt with fire: so shall it be at the end of the world. (aiōn g165)
41 Mũrũ wa Mũndũ nĩagatũma araika ake, na nĩmakeheria maũndũ mothe marĩa marehaga mehia na andũ arĩa othe mekaga ũũru ũthamaki-inĩ wake.
The Son of man shall send his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all scandals, and them that work iniquity.
42 Nĩmakamaikia thĩinĩ wa icua rĩa mwaki, kũrĩa gũgaakorwo kĩrĩro na kũhagarania magego.
And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
43 Hĩndĩ ĩyo arĩa athingu magaakenga ta riũa thĩinĩ wa ũthamaki wa Ithe wao. Ũrĩa ũrĩ na matũ nĩ aigue.
Then shall the just shine as the sun, in the kingdom of their Father. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
44 “Ũthamaki wa igũrũ ũhaanaine na mũthiithũ wahithĩtwo mũgũnda. Na rĩrĩa mũndũ aawoonire, akĩũhitha rĩngĩ, na nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa akenete, agĩthiĩ akĩendia indo ciothe iria arĩ nacio akĩgũra mũgũnda ũcio.
The kingdom of heaven is like unto a treasure hidden in a field. Which a man having found, hid it, and for joy thereof goeth, and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.
45 “Ningĩ ũthamaki wa igũrũ ũhaanaine na mwonjorithia wacaragia ruru njega.
Again the kingdom of heaven is like to a merchant seeking good pearls.
46 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa oonire ĩmwe ya thogora mũnene-rĩ, agĩthiĩ akĩendia indo ciake ciothe iria aarĩ nacio, akĩmĩgũra.
Who when he had found one pearl of great price, went his way, and sold all that he had, and bought it.
47 “O rĩngĩ, ũthamaki wa igũrũ ũhaanaine na neti ĩrĩa yaikirio iria-inĩ, nayo ĩgĩtega thamaki cia mĩthemba yothe.
Again the kingdom of heaven is like to a net cast into the sea, and gathering together of all kind of fishes.
48 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yaiyũrire, ategi acio a thamaki makĩmĩguucia hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria. Hĩndĩ ĩyo magĩikara thĩ, magĩthuura thamaki iria njega, magĩciĩkĩra ikabũ-inĩ, no iria njũru magĩcite.
Which, when it was filled, they drew out, and sitting by the shore, they chose out the good into vessels, but the bad they cast forth.
49 Ũguo nĩguo gũgaakorwo hĩndĩ ya ithirĩro rĩa mahinda maya. Araika nĩmagooka maamũranie arĩa aaganu kuuma kũrĩ arĩa athingu, (aiōn g165)
So shall it be at the end of the world. The angels shall go out, and shall separate the wicked from among the just. (aiōn g165)
50 na maikie arĩa aaganu icua-inĩ rĩa mwaki, kũrĩa gũgaakorwo na kĩrĩro na kũhagarania magego.”
And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
51 Jesũ akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Nĩmwataũkĩrwo nĩ maũndũ macio mothe?” Magĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ, nĩtwataũkĩrwo.”
Have ye understood all these things? They say to him: Yes.
52 Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, mũrutani wa watho o wothe ũrĩa ũrutĩtwo ũhoro wa ũthamaki wa igũrũ-rĩ, ahaanaine na mwene nyũmba ũrĩa ũrutaga mũthiithũ-inĩ wake indo iria njerũ o na iria ngũrũ.”
He said unto them: Therefore every scribe instructed in the kingdom of heaven, is like to a man that is a householder, who bringeth forth out of his treasure new things and old.
53 Nake Jesũ aarĩkia kũheana ngerekano icio-rĩ, akiuma kũu.
And it came to pass: when Jesus had finished these parables, he passed from thence.
54 Aakinya itũũra rĩa kwao-rĩ, akĩambĩrĩria kũrutana thunagogi-inĩ ciao, nao makĩgega. Makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũyũ arutĩte kũ ũũgĩ ũyũ na ciĩko ici cia hinya?
And coming into his own country, he taught them in their synagogues, so that they wondered and said: How came this man by this wisdom and miracles?
55 Githĩ ũyũ ti we mũrũ wa mũtharamara? Githĩ rĩĩtwa rĩa nyina ti Mariamu, na githĩ ariũ a nyina ti Jakubu, na Jusufu, na Simoni, na Juda?
Is not this the carpenter’s son? Is not his mother called Mary, and his brethren James, and Joseph, and Simon, and Jude:
56 Na githĩ aarĩ a nyina othe tũtirĩ nao? Mũndũ ũyũ akĩrutĩte maũndũ maya mothe kũ?”
And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence therefore hath he all these things?
57 Nao makĩmũrega. No Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Kũndũ mũnabii ataheagwo gĩtĩĩo no itũũra-inĩ rĩake na gwake mũciĩ.”
And they were scandalized in his regard. But Jesus said to them: A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.
58 Nake ndaaringire ciama nyingĩ kũu, tondũ wa ũrĩa maagĩte gwĩtĩkia.
And he wrought not many miracles there, because of their unbelief.
