Κατα Ματθαιον 21
1 Καὶ ὅτε ἤγγισαν εἰς Ἱεροσόλυμα καὶ ἦλθον εἰς Βηθφαγῆ εἰς τὸ ὄρος τῶν ἐλαιῶν, τότε ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἀπέστειλεν δύο μαθητάς,
Yesu na wanafunzi wake walipokaribia Yerusalemu na kufika Bethfage katika mlima wa Mizeituni, aliwatuma wanafunzi wake wawili,
2 λέγων αὐτοῖς, Πορεύεσθε εἰς τὴν κώμην τὴν κατέναντι ὑμῶν· καὶ εὐθέως εὑρήσετε ὄνον δεδεμένην, καὶ πῶλον μετ᾽ αὐτῆς· λύσαντες ἄγετέ μοι.
akawaambia, “Nendeni hadi kijiji kilicho mbele yenu na mtamkuta punda amefungwa na mtoto wake. Wafungueni mkawalete kwangu.
3 καὶ ἐάν τις ὑμῖν εἴπῃ τι, ἐρεῖτε ὅτι ὁ κύριος αὐτῶν χρείαν ἔχει, εὐθὺς δὲ ἀποστελεῖ αὐτούς.
Kama mtu akiwauliza sababu, mwambieni, Bwana anawahitaji, naye atawaachieni mara.”
4 τοῦτο δὲ γέγονεν ἵνα πληρωθῇ τὸ ῥηθὲν διὰ τοῦ προφήτου λέγοντος,
Jambo hili lilifanyika ili yale yaliyosemwa na nabii yatimie:
5 Εἴπατε τῇ θυγατρὶ Σιών, Ἰδοὺ ὁ βασιλεύς σου ἔρχεταί σοι, πραῢς καὶ ἐπιβεβηκὼς ἐπὶ ὄνον καὶ ἐπὶ πῶλον υἱὸν ὑποζυγίου.
“Uambieni mji wa Sioni: Tazama, Mfalme wako anakujia! Ni mpole na amepanda punda, mwana punda, mtoto wa punda.”
6 Πορευθέντες δὲ οἱ μαθηταὶ καὶ ποιήσαντες καθὼς συνέταξεν αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς,
Hivyo, wale wanafunzi walienda wakafanya kama Yesu alivyowaagiza.
7 ἤγαγον τὴν ὄνον καὶ τὸν πῶλον, καὶ ἐπέθηκαν ἐπ᾽ αὐτῶν τὰ ἱμάτια, καὶ ἐπεκάθισεν ἐπάνω αὐτῶν.
Wakamleta yule punda na mtoto wake, wakatandika nguo zao juu yao na Yesu akaketi juu yake.
8 ὁ δὲ πλεῖστος ὄχλος ἔστρωσαν ἑαυτῶν τὰ ἱμάτια ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ, ἄλλοι δὲ ἔκοπτον κλάδους ἀπὸ τῶν δένδρων, καὶ ἐστρώννυον ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ.
Umati mkubwa wa watu ukatandaza nguo zao barabarani, na watu wengine wakakata matawi ya miti wakayatandaza barabarani.
9 οἱ δὲ ὄχλοι οἱ προάγοντες αὐτὸν καὶ οἱ ἀκολουθοῦντες ἔκραζον λέγοντες, Ὡσαννὰ τῷ υἱῷ Δαυείδ, εὐλογημένος ὁ ἐρχόμενος ἐν ὀνόματι κυρίου· ὡσαννὰ ἐν τοῖς ὑψίστοις.
Makundi ya watu waliomtangulia na wale waliomfuata wakapaaza sauti: “Hosana Mwana wa Daudi! Abarikiwe huyo ajaye kwa jina la Bwana! Hosana Mungu juu mbinguni!”
10 καὶ εἰσελθόντος αὐτοῦ εἰς Ἱεροσόλυμα ἐσείσθη πᾶσα ἡ πόλις λέγουσα, Τίς ἐστιν οὗτος;
Yesu alipokuwa anaingia Yerusalemu, mji wote ukajaa ghasia. Watu wakawa wanauliza, “Huyu ni nani?”
11 οἱ δὲ ὄχλοι ἔλεγον, Οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ προφήτης Ἰησοῦς, ὁ ἀπὸ Ναζαρὲθ τῆς Γαλιλαίας.
Watu katika ule umati wakasema, “Huyu ni nabii Yesu, kutoka Nazareti katika mkoa wa Galilaya.”
12 Καὶ εἰσῆλθεν Ἰησοῦς εἰς τὸ ἱερὸν, καὶ ἐξέβαλεν πάντας τοὺς πωλοῦντας καὶ ἀγοράζοντας ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ, καὶ τὰς τραπέζας τῶν κολλυβιστῶν κατέστρεψεν, καὶ τὰς καθέδρας τῶν πωλούντων τὰς περιστεράς,
Basi, Yesu akaingia Hekaluni, akawafukuza nje watu waliokuwa wanauza na kununua vitu ndani ya Hekalu; akazipindua meza za wale waliokuwa wanavunja fedha, na viti vya wale waliokuwa wanauza njiwa.
13 καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς, Γέγραπται, Ὁ οἶκός μου οἶκος προσευχῆς κληθήσεται· ὑμεῖς δὲ αὐτὸν ποιεῖτε σπήλαιον ληστῶν.
Akawaambia, “Imeandikwa katika Maandiko Matakatifu: Nyumba yangu itaitwa nyumba ya sala. Lakini ninyi mmeifanya kuwa pango la wanyang'anyi.”
14 Καὶ προσῆλθον αὐτῷ τυφλοὶ καὶ χωλοὶ ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ, καὶ ἐθεράπευσεν αὐτούς.
Vipofu na vilema walimwendea huko Hekaluni, naye Yesu akawaponya.
15 ἰδόντες δὲ οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ γραμματεῖς τὰ θαυμάσια ἃ ἐποίησεν, καὶ τοὺς παῖδας τοὺς κράζοντας ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ καὶ λέγοντας, Ὡσαννὰ τῷ υἱῷ Δαυείδ, ἠγανάκτησαν,
Basi, makuhani wakuu na walimu wa Sheria walipoyaona maajabu aliyoyafanya Yesu, na pia watoto walipokuwa wanapaaza sauti zao Hekaluni wakisema: “Sifa kwa Mwana wa Daudi,” wakakasirika.
16 καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῷ, Ἀκούεις τί οὗτοι λέγουσιν; ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς λέγει αὐτοῖς, Ναί. οὐδέποτε ἀνέγνωτε ὅτι ἐκ στόματος νηπίων καὶ θηλαζόντων κατηρτίσω αἶνον;
Hivyo wakamwambia, “Je, husikii wanachosema?” Yesu akawajibu, “Naam, nasikia! Je hamjasoma Maandiko haya Matakatifu? Kwa vinywa vya watoto wadogo na wanyonyao unajipatia sifa kamilifu.”
17 καὶ καταλιπὼν αὐτοὺς ἐξῆλθεν ἔξω τῆς πόλεως εἰς Βηθανίαν καὶ ηὐλίσθη ἐκεῖ.
Basi, akawaacha, akatoka nje ya mji na kwenda Bethania, akalala huko.
18 Πρωῒ δὲ ἐπανάγων εἰς τὴν πόλιν ἐπείνασεν,
Yesu alipokuwa anarudi mjini asubuhi na mapema, aliona njaa.
19 καὶ ἰδὼν συκῆν μίαν ἐπὶ τῆς ὁδοῦ, ἦλθεν ἐπ᾽ αὐτήν, καὶ οὐδὲν εὗρεν ἐν αὐτῇ εἰ μὴ φύλλα μόνον· καὶ λέγει αὐτῇ, Μηκέτι ἐκ σοῦ καρπὸς γένηται εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα. καὶ ἐξηράνθη παραχρῆμα ἡ συκῆ. (aiōn g165)
Akauona mtini mmoja kando ya njia, akauendea; lakini aliukuta hauma chochote ila majani matupu. Basi akauambia, “Usizae tena matunda milele!” Papo hapo huo mtini ukanyauka. (aiōn g165)
20 καὶ ἰδόντες οἱ μαθηταὶ ἐθαύμασαν λέγοντες, Πῶς παραχρῆμα ἐξηράνθη ἡ συκῆ;
Wanafunzi walipouona walishangaa wakisema, “Kwa nini mtini huu umenyauka ghafla?”
21 Ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, Ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, ἐὰν ἔχητε πίστιν καὶ μὴ διακριθῆτε, οὐ μόνον τὸ τῆς συκῆς ποιήσετε, ἀλλὰ κἂν τῷ ὄρει τούτῳ εἴπητε, Ἄρθητι καὶ βλήθητι εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν, γενήσεται·
Yesu akawajibu, “Kweli nawaambieni, kama mkiwa na imani bila kuwa na mashaka, mnaweza si tu kufanya hivyo, bali hata mkiuambia mlima huu: Ng'oka ukajitose baharini, itafanyika hivyo.
22 καὶ πάντα ὅσα ἐὰν αἰτήσητε ἐν τῇ προσευχῇ πιστεύοντες, λήμψεσθε.
Na mkiwa na imani, chochote mtakachoomba katika sala, mtapata.”
23 Καὶ ἐλθόντος αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸ ἱερὸν προσῆλθον αὐτῷ διδάσκοντι οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι τοῦ λαοῦ λέγοντες, Ἐν ποίᾳ ἐξουσίᾳ ταῦτα ποιεῖς; καὶ τίς σοι ἔδωκεν τὴν ἐξουσίαν ταύτην;
Yesu aliingia Hekaluni, akawa anafundisha. Alipokuwa akifundisha, makuhani wakuu na wazee wa watu wakamwuliza, “Unafanya mambo haya kwa mamlaka gani? Nani amekupa mamlaka haya?”
24 ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, Ἐρωτήσω ὑμᾶς κἀγὼ λόγον ἕνα, ὃν ἐὰν εἴπητέ μοι κἀγὼ ὑμῖν ἐρῶ ἐν ποίᾳ ἐξουσίᾳ ταῦτα ποιῶ.
Yesu akawajibu, “Na mimi nitawaulizeni swali moja; mkinijibu, basi nami nitawaambieni ninafanya mambo haya kwa mamlaka gani.
25 τὸ βάπτισμα τὸ Ἰωάννου πόθεν ἦν; ἐξ οὐρανοῦ, ἢ ἐξ ἀνθρώπων; οἱ δὲ διελογίζοντο ἐν ἑαυτοῖς λέγοντες, Ἐὰν εἴπωμεν, Ἐξ οὐρανοῦ, ἐρεῖ ἡμῖν, Διὰ τί οὖν οὐκ ἐπιστεύσατε αὐτῷ;
Je, mamlaka ya Yohane ya kubatiza yalitoka kwa nani? Je, yalitoka mbinguni ama kwa watu?” Lakini wakajadiliana wao kwa wao hivi: “Tukisema, Yalitoka mbinguni, atatuuliza, Basi, mbona hamkumsadiki?
26 ἐὰν δὲ εἴπωμεν, Ἐξ ἀνθρώπων, φοβούμεθα τὸν ὄχλον· πάντες γὰρ ὡς προφήτην ἔχουσιν τὸν Ἰωάννην.
Na tukisema, Yalitoka kwa watu, tunaogopa umati wa watu maana wote wanakubali kwamba Yohane ni nabii.”
27 καὶ ἀποκριθέντες τῷ Ἰησοῦ εἶπον, Οὐκ οἴδαμεν. Ἔφη αὐτοῖς καὶ αὐτός, Οὐδὲ ἐγὼ λέγω ὑμῖν ἐν ποίᾳ ἐξουσίᾳ ταῦτα ποιῶ.
Basi, wakamjibu, “Hatujui!” Naye Yesu akawaambia, “Nami pia sitawaambieni ninafanya mambo haya kwa mamlaka gani.
28 Τί δὲ ὑμῖν δοκεῖ; ἄνθρωπος εἶχεν τέκνα δύο, καὶ προσελθὼν τῷ πρώτῳ εἶπεν, Τέκνον, ὕπαγε σήμερον ἐργάζου ἐν τῷ ἀμπελῶνι.
“Ninyi mnaonaje; mtu mmoja alikuwa na wana wawili. Akamwambia yule wa kwanza, Mwanangu, leo nenda ukafanye kazi katika shamba la mizabibu.
29 ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν, Οὐ θέλω· ὕστερον δὲ μεταμεληθεὶς ἀπῆλθεν.
Yule kijana akamwambia, Sitaki! Lakini baadaye akabadili nia, akaenda kufanya kazi.
30 προσελθὼν δὲ τῷ δευτέρῳ εἶπεν ὡσαύτως. ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν, Ἐγώ, κύριε· καὶ οὐκ ἀπῆλθεν.
Yule baba akamwambia mtoto wake wa pili vivyo hivyo, naye akamjibu, Naam baba! Lakini hakwenda kazini.
31 τίς ἐκ τῶν δύο ἐποίησεν τὸ θέλημα τοῦ πατρός; λέγουσιν, Ὁ ὕστερος. λέγει αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς, Ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι οἱ τελῶναι καὶ αἱ πόρναι προάγουσιν ὑμᾶς εἰς τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ θεοῦ.
Je, ni nani kati ya hawa wawili aliyetimiza matakwa ya baba yake?” Wakamjibu, “Yule mtoto wa kwanza.” Basi, Yesu akawaambia, “Kweli nawaambieni, watoza ushuru na waasherati wataingia katika Ufalme wa Mungu kabla yenu.
32 ἦλθεν γὰρ Ἰωάννης πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἐν ὁδῷ δικαιοσύνης, καὶ οὐκ ἐπιστεύσατε αὐτῷ· οἱ δὲ τελῶναι καὶ αἱ πόρναι ἐπίστευσαν αὐτῷ, ὑμεῖς δὲ ἰδόντες οὐδὲ μετεμελήθητε ὕστερον τοῦ πιστεῦσαι αὐτῷ.
Maana Yohane alikuja kwenu akawaonyesha njia njema ya kuishi, nanyi hamkumwamini; lakini watoza ushuru na waasherati walimwamini. Hata baada ya kuona hayo yote ninyi hamkubadili mioyo yenu, na hamkusadiki.”
33 Ἄλλην παραβολὴν ἀκούσατε. ἄνθρωπος ἦν οἰκοδεσπότης, ὅστις ἐφύτευσεν ἀμπελῶνα, καὶ φραγμὸν αὐτῷ περιέθηκεν, καὶ ὤρυξεν ἐν αὐτῷ ληνόν, καὶ ῷκοδόμησεν πύργον, καὶ ἐξέδoτο αὐτὸν γεωργοῖς, καὶ ἀπεδήμησεν.
Yesu akasema, “Sikilizeni mfano mwingine. Mtu mmoja mwenye nyumba alilima shamba la mizabibu; akalizungushia ukuta, akachimba kisima cha kusindikia divai, akajenga humo mnara pia. Kisha akalikodisha kwa wakulima, akasafiri kwenda nchi ya mbali.
34 ὅτε δὲ ἤγγισεν ὁ καιρὸς τῶν καρπῶν, ἀπέστειλεν τοὺς δούλους αὐτοῦ πρὸς τοὺς γεωργοὺς λαβεῖν τοὺς καρποὺς αὐτοῦ·
Wakati wa mavuno ulipofika, aliwatuma watumishi wake kwa wale wakulima, ili wakachukue sehemu ya mavuno yake.
35 καὶ λαβόντες οἱ γεωργοὶ τοὺς δούλους αὐτοῦ, ὃν μὲν ἔδειραν, ὃν δὲ ἀπέκτειναν, ὃν δὲ ἐλιθοβόλησαν.
Wale wakulima wakawakamata hao watumishi; mmoja wakampiga, mwingine wakamwua na mwingine wakampiga mawe.
36 πάλιν ἀπέστειλεν ἄλλους δούλους πλείονας τῶν πρώτων, καὶ ἐποίησαν αὐτοῖς ὡσαύτως.
Huyo mtu akawatuma tena watumishi wengine, wengi kuliko wa safari ya kwanza. Wale wakulima wakawatendea namna ileile.
37 ὕστερον δὲ ἀπέστειλεν πρὸς αὐτοὺς τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ λέγων, Ἐντραπήσονται τὸν υἱόν μου.
Mwishowe akamtuma mwanawe huku akifikiri: Watamheshimu mwanangu.
38 οἱ δὲ γεωργοὶ ἰδόντες τὸν υἱὸν εἶπον ἐν ἑαυτοῖς, Οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ κληρονόμος· δεῦτε, ἀποκτείνωμεν αὐτόν, καὶ σχῶμεν τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ.
Lakini wale wakulima walipomwona mwanawe wakasemezana wao kwa wao: Huyu ndiye mrithi; na tumuue ili tuuchukue urithi wake!
39 καὶ λαβόντες αὐτὸν ἐξέβαλον ἔξω τοῦ ἀμπελῶνος καὶ ἀπέκτειναν.
Basi, wakamkamata, wakamtoa nje ya lile shamba la mizabibu, wakamwua.
40 ὅταν οὖν ἔλθῃ ὁ κύριος τοῦ ἀμπελῶνος, τί ποιήσει τοῖς γεωργοῖς ἐκείνοις;
“Sasa, huyo mwenye shamba la mizabibu atakapokuja, atawafanyaje hao wakulima?”
41 λέγουσιν αὐτῷ, Κακοὺς κακῶς ἀπολέσει αὐτούς, καὶ τὸν ἀμπελῶνα ἐκδώσεται ἄλλοις γεωργοῖς, οἵτινες ἀποδώσουσιν αὐτῷ τοὺς καρποὺς ἐν τοῖς καιροῖς αὐτῶν.
Wao wakamjibu, “Atawaangamiza vibaya hao waovu, na lile shamba atawapa wakulima wengine ambao watampa sehemu ya mavuno wakati wa mavuno.”
42 λέγει αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς, Οὐδέποτε ἀνέγνωτε ἐν ταῖς γραφαῖς, Λίθον ὃν ἀπεδοκίμασαν οἱ οἰκοδομοῦντες, οὗτος ἐγενήθη εἰς κεφαλὴν γωνίας. παρὰ κυρίου ἐγένετο αὕτη, καὶ ἔστιν θαυμαστὴ ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς ἡμῶν;
Hapo Yesu akawaambia, “Je, hamkusoma jambo hili katika Maandiko Matakatifu? Jiwe walilokataa waashi sasa limekuwa jiwe kuu la msingi. Bwana ndiye aliyefanya jambo hili, nalo ni la ajabu sana kwetu!
43 διὰ τοῦτο λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι ἀρθήσεται ἀφ᾽ ὑμῶν ἡ βασιλεία τοῦ θεοῦ, καὶ δοθήσεται ἔθνει ποιοῦντι τοὺς καρποὺς αὐτῆς.
“Kwa hiyo nawaambieni, Ufalme wa Mungu utaondolewa kwenu na kupewa watu wa mataifa mengine wenye kutoa matunda yake.”
44 καὶ ὁ πεσὼν ἐπὶ τὸν λίθον τοῦτον συνθλασθήσεται· ἐφ᾽ ὃν δ᾽ ἂν πέσῃ, λικμήσει αὐτόν.
“Atakayeanguka juu ya jiwe hilo atavunjika vipandevipande; na likimwangukia mtu yeyote, litamponda.”
45 Καὶ ἀκούσαντες οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ Φαρισαῖοι τὰς παραβολὰς αὐτοῦ ἔγνωσαν ὅτι περὶ αὐτῶν λέγει·
Makuhani wakuu na Mafarisayo waliposikia hiyo mifano yake walitambua kwamba alikuwa anawasema wao.
46 καὶ ζητοῦντες αὐτὸν κρατῆσαι, ἐφοβήθησαν τοὺς ὄχλους, ἐπεὶ εἰς προφήτην αὐτὸν εἶχον.
Kwa hiyo wakawa wanatafuta njia ya kumtia nguvuni, lakini waliwaogopa watu kwa sababu wao walimtambua yeye kuwa nabii.
