< Matayo 11 >

1 U Yesu naiwakondya kualagiila iamanyisigwa akwe ikumi naabili akahega akalongola kumanyisa nukutanantya muisali yao.
And it came to pass when Jesus had made an end of commanding his twelve disciples, he departed thence to teach and to preach in their cities.
2 Nu Yohana akazukoli kukitungo naiwija intendo yang'wa Kilisto, aulaagilyo ulukani kukiila amanyisigwa akwe,
Now when John had heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples,
3 hangi ikamukolya, “Uwe yuyu ne nupembilye, ang'wi mungiza nikumulindie?”
And said to him, Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another?
4 U Yesu akalunga, longoli mumuile u Yohana ayo nimumaine nayo nimuwigule.
Jesus answered and said to them, Go and show John again those things which ye hear and see:
5 Iantu niapoku akuona, akitele akugenda, anyambili akogigwa, agulu akija, niakule akuukigwa kutula apanga hangi, niantu niakite insula akutanantiligwa ulukani nuluza.
The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the poor have the gospel preached to them.
6 Hangi akembetwe uyu nunihuie unene.
And blessed is [he] to whom I shall not be the cause of his falling into sin.
7 Itungo naiahega iantu awa, u Yesu akandya kuligitya numilundo kunsoko ang'wa Yohana, aimendile ona ntuni mumbuga- muntu nutugae mienda nimiza? Ang'wi ifa nilikuhingisigwa nung'wega?
And as they departed, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? a reed shaken with the wind?
8 Ite ntuni naimendile ona-muntu nautugae imyanda nimiza? Ingi tai ao niitugala imyenda nimiza ikue munyumba ya temi.
But what went ye out to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they that wear soft [clothing] are in kings' houses.
9 Ite amulongoe kugoza ntuni-Munyakidagu? Ee, humuila. Hangi ukilinkie umunyakidagu.
But what went ye out to see? A prophet? yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet.
10 Uyu yuyo nailindiwe, Goza, kumulagiilya umumboi wane kuntongeela auso wako, uyu nukunonelya inzila pantongeela ako.
For this is [he] concerning whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.
11 Une kumuila itai, awa nialugilwe niasungu kutile numukulu kukila u Yohana Mbatizaji, kululo uyu nimunino ukutula mukulu muutemi wa kigulu kukila nuanso.
Verily, I say to you, among them that are born of women, there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding, he that is least in the kingdom of heaven, is greater than he.
12 Puma imahiku ang'wa Yohana Mbatizaji sunga nitungile, utemi wa kigulu wa ngulu, niantu nia ngulu ihola kua ngulu.
And from the days of John the Baptist, until now, the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.
13 Kunsoko ianyakidagu niaziipilya ankani niazitambula kupika kung'wa Yohana.
For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.
14 Ang'wi wihambile gomba uyu Eliya, naulindiwe.
And if ye will receive [it], this is Elijah who was to come.
15 Nukite iakutwe akija ukija.
He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
16 Nuipyane nintuni uwileli uwu? Ingi pyani ang'enya niakiginsa kiguilyo la maintu, niike nukiitanga,
But to what shall I liken this generation? It is like to children sitting in the markets, and calling to their fellows,
17 nu kuligitya akumukuila ikali shamakiginsa, aikuhongeelya shamukalila.
And saying, We have piped to you, and ye have not danced; We have mourned to you, and ye have not lamented.
18 Kunsoko u Yohana nauzile singa akalya umukate, singa akang'wa umuvinyo, ukamuila ukete amintunga.
For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He hath a demon.
19 Ung'wana wang'wa Adamu auzile kulya nukung'wa ikalunga, goza ingi mulii hangi mugala ntuli, muhumba muya wa ahoela mpia na niakite imilandu, ingi uhugu nintendo yigeeleka niakue.”
The Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, Behold, a man gluttonous, and a wine-bibber, a friend of publicans and sinners. But wisdom is justified by her children.
20 U Yesu akandya kuikenela isali izo ni ntendo yaukuilwa naiyitumilwe, kunsoko akili kuleka imilandu (kila itunu).
Then he began to upbraid the cities in which most of his mighty works had been done, because they repented not.
21 Ukia ako, Kolazini, ukia ako Bethsaida! Angi intendo ninkulu aizeyatendekile Tiro ni Sidoni, aya naitumilwe apa, azize alekile imilandu kali kutugala imagunila nukipaka imau.
Woe to thee, Chorazin; woe to thee, Bethsaida: for if the mighty works which have been done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
22 Izetula ugimya i Tiro ni Sidoni imahiku naulamulwa kukila kilalao.
But I say to you, It shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the day of judgment, than for you.
23 Uewe Kapernaumu, usigile uzeukigwa mpaka kigulu? Ata uzesimigwa mpaka kuulungu. Anga ize intendo ninkulu aizeyilumilwe ku Sodoma, anga naiyitendekile kitalako, aizeikole sunga ni lelo. (Hadēs g86)
And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be brought down to hell: for if the mighty works which have been done in thee, had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day. (Hadēs g86)
24 Ingi izetula bahu ihi a Sodoma kimika uluhiko la ulamulwa kukila uewe.
But I say to you, that it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom, in the day of judgment, than for thee.
25 Imatungo nanso u Yesu akalunga nakulumbilya uwe Tata, Mukulu wa kilunde ni ihi, kunsoko aupihile inkani awa nia hugu nawa niamahala, uka kunukula kuantu nishaaine anga kintu anga ang'enya nianino.
At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them to babes.
26 Tata kunsoko aikuloeye uu mumiho ako.
Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in thy sight.
27 Maintu ihi mambigwe nene kupuma kung'wa Tata. Hangi kutile numulingile ung'wana ingi. U tata du. Hangi kutile numulingile utata ingi ung'wana, nuyu wihi nung'wana ukite insula akukunukuilwa.
All things are delivered to me by my Father; and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and [he] to whomsoever the Son will reveal [him].
28 Nzi kitalane mihi nimulemeigwe nimiligo nimilito, une nze musupya.
Come to me, all [ye] that labor, and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Tugali uhuili ane, mimanyise kitalane, kunsoko unene ingi nimuntu wa ukenge nuupolo wa nkolo hangi mkupantika uusupilyo wa nkolo yanyu.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me: for I am meek and lowly in heart; and ye shall find rest to your souls.
30 Kunsoko nakitalane maza ni miligo ane mipepele.
For my yoke [is] easy, and my burden is light.
