Κατα Ματθαιον 21
1 Καὶ ὅτε ἤγγισαν εἰς Ἱεροσόλυμα, καὶ ἦλθον εἰς Βηθσφαγὴ πρὸς τὸ ὄρος τῶν Ἐλαιῶν, τότε ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἀπέστειλε δύο μαθητάς,
Walipokaribia Yerusalemu, wakafika Bethfage katika Mlima wa Mizeituni. Ndipo Yesu akawatuma wanafunzi wake wawili,
2 λέγων αὐτοῖς, Πορεύθητε εἰς τὴν κώμην τὴν ἀπέναντι ὑμῶν, καὶ εὐθέως εὑρήσετε ὄνον δεδεμένην, καὶ πῶλον μετ᾽ αὐτῆς· λύσαντες ἀγάγετέ μοι.
akawaambia, “Nendeni katika kijiji kilichoko mbele yenu, nanyi mtamkuta punda amefungwa hapo, na mwana-punda pamoja naye. Wafungueni na mniletee.
3 Καὶ ἐάν τις ὑμῖν εἴπῃ τι, ἐρεῖτε ὅτι Ὁ Κύριος αὐτῶν χρείαν ἔχει· εὐθέως δὲ ἀποστέλλει αὐτούς.
Kama mtu yeyote akiwasemesha lolote, mwambieni kwamba Bwana ana haja nao, naye atawaruhusu mwalete mara.”
4 Τοῦτο δὲ ὅλον γέγονεν, ἵνα πληρωθῇ τὸ ῥηθὲν διὰ τοῦ προφήτου, λέγοντος,
Haya yalitukia ili litimie lile lililonenwa na nabii, akisema:
5 Εἴπατε τῇ θυγατρὶ Σιών, Ἰδού, ὁ βασιλεύς σου ἔρχεταί σοι, πραῢς καὶ ἐπιβεβηκὼς ἐπὶ ὄνον καὶ πῶλον υἱὸν ὑποζυγίου.
“Mwambieni Binti Sayuni, ‘Tazama, mfalme wako anakuja kwako, ni mnyenyekevu, naye amepanda punda, juu ya mwana-punda, mtoto wa punda.’”
6 Πορευθέντες δὲ οἱ μαθηταί, καὶ ποιήσαντες καθὼς προσέταξεν αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς,
Wale wanafunzi wakaenda, wakafanya kama Yesu alivyokuwa amewaagiza.
7 ἤγαγον τὴν ὄνον καὶ τὸν πῶλον· καὶ ἐπέθηκαν ἐπάνω αὐτῶν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐπεκάθισεν ἐπάνω αὐτῶν.
Wakamleta yule punda na mwana-punda, nao wakatandika mavazi yao juu ya hao punda, naye 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 mavazi yao barabarani, na wengine wakakata matawi kutoka kwenye miti, wakayatandaza barabarani.
9 Οἱ δὲ ὄχλοι οἱ προάγοντες καὶ οἱ ἀκολουθοῦντες ἔκραζον, λέγοντες, Ὡσαννὰ τῷ υἱῷ Δαυίδ· εὐλογημένος ὁ ἐρχόμενος ἐν ὀνόματι Κυρίου. Ὡσαννὰ ἐν τοῖς ὑψίστοις.
Ule umati wa watu uliomtangulia na ule uliomfuata ukapiga kelele ukisema, “Hosana, Mwana wa Daudi!” “Amebarikiwa yeye ajaye kwa Jina la Bwana!” “Hosana juu mbinguni!”
10 Καὶ εἰσελθόντος αὐτοῦ εἰς Ἱεροσόλυμα, ἐσείσθη πᾶσα ἡ πόλις, λέγουσα, Τίς ἐστιν οὗτος;
Yesu alipoingia Yerusalemu, mji wote ukataharuki, watu wakauliza, “Huyu ni nani?”
11 Οἱ δὲ ὄχλοι ἔλεγον, Οὗτός ἐστιν Ἰησοῦς ὁ προφήτης, ὁ ἀπὸ Ναζαρὲτ τῆς Γαλιλαίας.
Ule umati wa watu ukajibu, “Huyu ni Yesu, yule nabii kutoka Nazareti katika Galilaya.”
12 Καὶ εἰσῆλθεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἰς τὸ ἱερὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ, καὶ ἐξέβαλε πάντας τοὺς πωλοῦντας καὶ ἀγοράζοντας ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ, καὶ τὰς τραπέζας τῶν κολλυβιστῶν κατέστρεψε, καὶ τὰς καθέδρας τῶν πωλούντων τὰς περιστεράς.
Yesu akaingia katika eneo la Hekalu na kuwafukuza wote waliokuwa wakinunua na kuuza vitu Hekaluni. Akazipindua meza za wale waliokuwa wakibadilisha fedha, na pia viti vya wale waliokuwa wakiuza njiwa.
13 Καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς, Γέγραπται, Ὁ οἶκός μου οἶκος προσευχῆς κληθήσεται· ὑμεῖς δὲ αὐτὸν ἐποιήσατε σπήλαιον λῃστῶν.
Akawaambia, “Imeandikwa, ‘Nyumba yangu itaitwa nyumba ya sala,’ lakini ninyi mmeifanya kuwa pango la wanyangʼanyi.”
14 Καὶ προσῆλθον αὐτῷ χωλοὶ καὶ τυφλοὶ ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ· καὶ ἐθεράπευσεν αὐτούς.
Vipofu na vilema wakamwendea kule Hekaluni, naye akawaponya.
15 Ἰδόντες δὲ οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ γραμματεῖς τὰ θαυμάσια ἃ ἐποίησε, καὶ τοὺς παῖδας κράζοντας ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ, καὶ λέγοντας, Ὡσαννὰ τῷ υἱῷ Δαυίδ, ἠγανάκτησαν,
Lakini viongozi wa makuhani na walimu wa sheria walipoona mambo ya ajabu aliyofanya na kuwasikia watoto wakishangilia katika eneo la Hekalu wakisema, “Hosana Mwana wa Daudi,” walikasirika.
16 καὶ εἶπον αὐτῷ, Ἀκούεις τί οὗτοι λέγουσιν; Ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς λέγει αὐτοῖς, Ναί· οὐδέποτε ἀνέγνωτε ὅτι Ἐκ στόματος νηπίων καὶ θηλαζόντων κατηρτίσω αἶνον;
Wakamuuliza Yesu, “Je, unasikia hayo hawa wanayosema?” Akawajibu, “Naam; kwani hamkusoma, “‘Midomoni mwa watoto wachanga na wanyonyao umeamuru sifa’?”
17 Καὶ καταλιπὼν αὐτοὺς ἐξῆλθεν ἔξω τῆς πόλεως εἰς Βηθανίαν, καὶ ηὐλίσθη ἐκεῖ.
Akawaacha, akatoka nje ya mji, akaenda hadi Bethania, akalala huko.
18 Πρωΐας δὲ ἐπανάγων εἰς τὴν πόλιν, ἐπείνασε.
Asubuhi na mapema, Yesu alipokuwa akirudi mjini, alikuwa na 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 kando ya barabara, naye akaukaribia, lakini hakupata tunda lolote ila majani. Ndipo akauambia, “Wewe usizae matunda tena kamwe!” Papo hapo ule mtini ukanyauka. (aiōn g165)
20 Καὶ ἰδόντες οἱ μαθηταὶ ἐθαύμασαν, λέγοντες, Πῶς παραχρῆμα ἐξηράνθη ἡ συκῆ;
Wanafunzi wake walipoona jambo hili, wakashangaa, wakamuuliza, “Imekuwaje mtini huu kunyauka ghafula?”
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, “Amin, nawaambia, kama mkiwa na imani wala msiwe na shaka, si kwamba mtaweza kufanya tu yale yaliyofanyika kwa huu mtini, bali hata mkiuambia huu mlima, ‘Ngʼoka, ukatupwe baharini,’ litafanyika.
22 Καὶ πάντα ὅσα ἐὰν αἰτήσητε ἐν τῇ προσευχῇ, πιστεύοντες, λήψεσθε.
Yoyote mtakayoyaomba mkisali na mkiamini, mtayapokea.”
23 Καὶ ἐλθόντι αὐτῷ εἰς τὸ ἱερόν, προσῆλθον αὐτῷ διδάσκοντι οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι τοῦ λαοῦ, λέγοντες, Ἐν ποίᾳ ἐξουσίᾳ ταῦτα ποιεῖς; Καὶ τίς σοι ἔδωκε τὴν ἐξουσίαν ταύτην;
Yesu alipoingia Hekaluni, viongozi wa makuhani na wazee wa watu wakamjia alipokuwa anafundisha na kusema, “Unafanya mambo haya kwa mamlaka gani? Na ni nani aliyekupa mamlaka hayo?”
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, “Nami nitawauliza swali moja. Kama mkinijibu, nami nitawaambia ni kwa mamlaka gani ninafanya mambo haya.
25 Τὸ βάπτισμα Ἰωάννου πόθεν ἦν; Ἐξ οὐρανοῦ ἢ ἐξ ἀνθρώπων; Οἱ δὲ διελογίζοντο παρ᾽ ἑαυτοῖς, λέγοντες, Ἐὰν εἴπωμεν, Ἐξ οὐρανοῦ, ἐρεῖ ἡμῖν, Διὰ τί οὖν οὐκ ἐπιστεύσατε αὐτῷ;
Ubatizo wa Yohana, ulitoka wapi? Je, ulitoka mbinguni au kwa wanadamu?” Wakahojiana wao kwa wao na kusema, “Tukisema ulitoka mbinguni atatuuliza, ‘Mbona basi hamkumwamini?’
26 Ἐὰν δὲ εἴπωμεν, Ἐξ ἀνθρώπων, φοβούμεθα τὸν ὄχλον· πάντες γὰρ ἔχουσι τὸν Ἰωάννην ὡς προφήτην.
Lakini tukisema, ‘Ulitoka kwa wanadamu,’ tunawaogopa hawa watu, maana wote wanamtambua Yohana kuwa ni nabii.”
27 Καὶ ἀποκριθέντες τῷ Ἰησοῦ εἶπον, Οὐκ οἴδαμεν. Ἔφη αὐτοῖς καὶ αὐτός, Οὐδὲ ἐγὼ λέγω ὑμῖν ἐν ποίᾳ ἐξουσίᾳ ταῦτα ποιῶ.
Kwa hiyo wakamjibu Yesu, “Sisi hatujui.” Naye akawaambia, “Wala mimi sitawaambia ni kwa mamlaka gani ninatenda mambo haya.”
28 Τί δὲ ὑμῖν δοκεῖ; Ἄνθρωπος εἶχε τέκνα δύο, καὶ προσελθὼν τῷ πρώτῳ εἶπε, Τέκνον, ὕπαγε, σήμερον ἐργάζου ἐν τῷ ἀμπελῶνί μου.
“Lakini mwaonaje? Mtu mmoja alikuwa na wana wawili. Akamwendea yule wa kwanza akamwambia, ‘Mwanangu, nenda ukafanye kazi kwenye shamba la mizabibu leo.’
29 Ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν, Οὐ θέλω· ὕστερον δὲ μεταμεληθείς, ἀπῆλθε.
“Yule mwanawe akamjibu ‘Mimi sitakwenda.’ Baadaye akabadili mawazo yake akaenda.
30 Καὶ προσελθὼν τῷ δευτέρῳ εἶπεν ὡσαύτως. Ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν, Ἐγώ, κύριε· καὶ οὐκ ἀπῆλθε.
“Kisha yule baba akamwendea yule mwanawe mwingine akamwambia vilevile. Yeye akajibu, ‘Nitakwenda, bwana,’ lakini hakwenda.
31 Τίς ἐκ τῶν δύο ἐποίησε τὸ θέλημα τοῦ πατρός; Λέγουσιν αὐτῷ, Ὁ πρῶτος. Λέγει αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς, Ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι οἱ τελῶναι καὶ αἱ πόρναι προάγουσιν ὑμᾶς εἰς τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ Θεοῦ.
“Ni yupi kati yao hao wawili aliyetimiza kile alichotaka baba yake?” Wakamjibu, “Ni yule wa kwanza.” Yesu akawaambia, “Amin, amin nawaambia, watoza ushuru na makahaba wanawatangulia kuingia katika Ufalme wa Mungu.
32 Ἦλθε γὰρ πρὸς ὑμᾶς Ἰωάννης ἐν ὁδῷ δικαιοσύνης, καὶ οὐκ ἐπιστεύσατε αὐτῷ· οἱ δὲ τελῶναι καὶ αἱ πόρναι ἐπίστευσαν αὐτῷ· ὑμεῖς δὲ ἰδόντες οὐ μετεμελήθητε ὕστερον τοῦ πιστεῦσαι αὐτῷ.
Kwa maana Yohana alikuja kwenu kuwaonyesha njia ya haki, lakini hamkumsadiki, lakini watoza ushuru na makahaba wakamsadiki. Nanyi hata mlipoona hayo, baadaye hamkutubu na kumsadiki.
33 Ἄλλην παραβολὴν ἀκούσατε. Ἄνθρωπός τις ἦν οἰκοδεσπότης, ὅστις ἐφύτευσεν ἀμπελῶνα, καὶ φραγμὸν αὐτῷ περιέθηκε, καὶ ὤρυξεν ἐν αὐτῷ ληνόν, καὶ ᾠκοδόμησε πύργον, καὶ ἐξέδοτο αὐτὸν γεωργοῖς, καὶ ἀπεδήμησεν.
“Sikilizeni mfano mwingine: Kulikuwa na mtu mmoja mwenye shamba ambaye alipanda shamba la mizabibu. Akajenga ukuta kulizunguka, akatengeneza shinikizo ndani yake na akajenga mnara wa ulinzi. Kisha akalikodisha hilo shamba la mizabibu kwa wakulima fulani, naye akaondoka, akasafiri kwenda nchi nyingine.
34 Ὅτε δὲ ἤγγισεν ὁ καιρὸς τῶν καρπῶν, ἀπέστειλε τοὺς δούλους αὐτοῦ πρὸς τοὺς γεωργούς, λαβεῖν τοὺς καρποὺς αὐτοῦ.
Wakati wa mavuno ulipokaribia, akawatuma watumishi wake kwa hao wapangaji ili kukusanya matunda yake.
35 Καὶ λαβόντες οἱ γεωργοὶ τοὺς δούλους αὐτοῦ, ὃν μὲν ἔδειραν, ὃν δὲ ἀπέκτειναν, ὃν δὲ ἐλιθοβόλησαν.
“Wale wapangaji wakawakamata wale watumishi, wakampiga mmoja, wakamuua mwingine, na yule wa tatu wakampiga mawe.
36 Πάλιν ἀπέστειλεν ἄλλους δούλους πλείονας τῶν πρώτων· καὶ ἐποίησαν αὐτοῖς ὡσαύτως.
Kisha akawatuma kwao watumishi wengine, wengi kuliko wale wa kwanza, nao wale wapangaji wakawatendea vilevile.
37 Ὕστερον δὲ ἀπέστειλε πρὸς αὐτοὺς τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ, λέγων, Ἐντραπήσονται τὸν υἱόν μου.
Mwisho wa yote, akamtuma mwanawe kwao, akisema, ‘Watamheshimu mwanangu.’
38 Οἱ δὲ γεωργοὶ ἰδόντες τὸν υἱὸν εἶπον ἐν ἑαυτοῖς, Οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ κληρονόμος· δεῦτε, ἀποκτείνωμεν αὐτόν, καὶ κατάσχωμεν τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ.
“Lakini wale wapangaji walipomwona mwanawe, wakasemezana wao kwa wao, ‘Huyu ndiye mrithi. Njooni tumuue, ili tuchukue urithi wake.’
39 Καὶ λαβόντες αὐτὸν ἐξέβαλον ἔξω τοῦ ἀμπελῶνος καὶ ἀπέκτειναν.
Hivyo wakamchukua, wakamtupa nje ya shamba la mizabibu, wakamuua.
40 Ὅταν οὖν ἔλθῃ ὁ κύριος τοῦ ἀμπελῶνος, τί ποιήσει τοῖς γεωργοῖς ἐκείνοις;
“Kwa hiyo, huyo mwenye shamba la mizabibu atakapokuja, atawafanyia nini hao wakulima?”
41 Λέγουσιν αὐτῷ, Κακοὺς κακῶς ἀπολέσει αὐτούς, καὶ τὸν ἀμπελῶνα ἐκδώσεται ἄλλοις γεωργοῖς, οἵτινες ἀποδώσουσιν αὐτῷ τοὺς καρποὺς ἐν τοῖς καιροῖς αὐτῶν.
Wakamjibu, “Kwa huzuni kuu atawaangamiza kabisa hao wadhalimu na kulipangisha shamba lake la mizabibu kwa wakulima wengine ambao watampatia fungu lake la matunda 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 ἔστι θαυμαστὴ ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς ἡμῶν;
Yesu akawaambia, “Je, hamjasoma katika Maandiko kwamba: “‘Jiwe walilolikataa waashi limekuwa jiwe kuu la pembeni. Bwana ndiye alitenda jambo hili, nalo ni la ajabu machoni petu’?
43 Διὰ τοῦτο λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι ἀρθήσεται ἀφ᾽ ὑμῶν ἡ βασιλεία τοῦ Θεοῦ, καὶ δοθήσεται ἔθνει ποιοῦντι τοὺς καρποὺς αὐτῆς.
“Kwa hiyo ninawaambia, Ufalme wa Mungu utaondolewa kwenu na kupewa watu wengine wawezao kuzaa matunda yake.
44 Καὶ ὁ πεσὼν ἐπὶ τὸν λίθον τοῦτον συνθλασθήσεται· ἐφ᾽ ὃν δ᾽ ἂν πέσῃ, λικμήσει αὐτόν.
Yeye aangukaye juu ya jiwe hili atavunjika vipande vipande, lakini yule litakayemwangukia atasagwa kabisa.”
45 Καὶ ἀκούσαντες οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ Φαρισαῖοι τὰς παραβολὰς αὐτοῦ ἔγνωσαν ὅτι περὶ αὐτῶν λέγει.
Viongozi wa Makuhani na Mafarisayo waliposikia mifano ya Yesu, walitambua kuwa alikuwa akiwasema wao.
46 Καὶ ζητοῦντες αὐτὸν κρατῆσαι, ἐφοβήθησαν τοὺς ὄχλους, ἐπειδὴ ὡς προφήτην αὐτὸν εἶχον.
Wakatafuta njia ya kumkamata, lakini wakaogopa umati wa watu, kwa kuwa watu walimwona Yesu kuwa ni nabii.
