Matai 22
1 UYeisu pu akhamula hange akhanchova nufihwani hata, “
And Jesus answering, spoke again in parables to them, saying:
2 Uludeva lwa khukyanya luhwanine ndunkuludeva uviatelikhe ifinu vutenghulani vwa munu viatolangha udala.
The kingdom of heaven is likened to a king, who made a marriage for his son.
3 Pu akhavasuha avavombi vamwene vakhaveilanghe aveilangiwa ukhwincha khwilya eikhyakhulya ekhitelekhiwe eikhyavutenghulani pu avanu voni vakhabela.
And he sent his servants, to call them that were invited to the marriage; and they would not come.
4 Unkuludeva pwakhasuha khange avavombi avange, akhavavula. Akhata “Mukhavavule voni aveilwangwa, mulole, pumeitesaminche ifinufya vutolani. Isenga nchangho ni finge ifinu ifinonile, fiheinjiwe pu fyoni neimalile ukhufitesania pu mwinchanghe khuvutengulani tuhovokhe paninie.”
Again he sent other servants, saying: Tell them that were invited, Behold, I have prepared my dinner; my beeves and fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come ye to the marriage.
5 Pu leino aveilangwa avo savaleikhuyi sangeila einyielango pu valeikhwiluteila nu yunge ukhwa sanghie, umo aluteile khukhyalo khwileima uyunge akhuluta khukhedengha.
But they neglected, and went their own ways, one to his farm, and another to his merchandise.
6 Avange avuvasinghile puvakhavasambukhila avavombi avasuhiwe vakhavabuda. Pu leino unkuludeva ula akalile fincho.
And the rest laid hands on his servants, and having treated them contumeliously, put them to death.
7 Pu akhasuha eikhipungha khya mwene, eikhya valwa linghoha ukhuluta khukhuvabuda vala voni avabudi vavavombi va mwene nukhuyanja uvunjenge vwavo nu mwoto.
But when the king had heard of it, he was angry, and sending his armies, he destroyed those murderers, and burnt their city.
8 Puleino akhavavula avavombi vamwene akhata, “Uluhekhelo lwakhulya ifyavute, ngulani lufikhe aveilangwa savanonghile.
Then he saith to his servants: The marriage indeed is ready; but they that were invited were not worthy.
9 Pu leino mulutanghe na munjeila malekhano eincha misevo voni uvuya khiva mukhuvavona muveilangenghe vinchange khuhekhela uvutengulani.”
Go ye therefore into the highways; and as many as you shall find, call to the marriage.
10 Avombi vala puvakhaluta pa njeila eimbaha vakhaveilanghe voni avavikhuvavona avangholofu na vavivi. Uluhekhe khela lwa vutenghulani pulukhadengha avanu vuvingi avanghenji.
And his servants going forth into the ways, gathered together all that they found, both bad and good: and the marriage was filled with guests.
11 Pu leino avile eingile unkuludeva ula khwilola avanghenji, vamwene pwakha vuna munyumba ya vulenghulani eiyaluhekhelo mwale umo uveisafwalile eimienda einghya luhekhelo lwa vutenghulani!
And the king went in to see the guests: and he saw there a man who had not on a wedding garment.
12 Pu Unkuludeva akhambuncha akhata, 'Imanyani, vangho vwingile ndakheikhi umu nuve nsufwalile eimienda nghya vutenghulani?' Pu umunu uywa sanchove khinu akhava eikelile ukhuva pala pavutenghulani.
And he saith to him: Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? But he was silent.
13 Pu unkuludeva akhavavula avavombi vamwene akhata, '“Munkunge umunu uyu amavokho nanghamalunde pu mutanghe khunji khuhisi pu ukhwa khukhwiva nulukuto nulunghaduncho lwa mino.
Then the king said to the waiters: Bind his hands and feet, and cast him into the exterior darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
14 Ulwakhuva aveilangiwa veingi avahalwa vadebe.”
For many are called, but few are chosen.
15 Pu ava Falisai vakhahengha vakhuluta nukhisavania umuyakhiva vikhumwibateila u Yeisu mumanyu ngha mwene.
Then the Pharisees going, consulted among themselves how to insnare him in his speech.
16 Pu ava Falisai vakhasuha avakongi vavo navanya Heloti. Pukhanchita khwa Yeisu, “Manyisi, tulumanyile ukhuta uve ulei munu vayeilwei, nukhuta vumanyesya uvunonghwe vwa Nguluve vumanyeisya mumbwayeilweli. Hange savudwada uvuvaha vwa munu uvei avenchangha pakhuva savwilola khumiho umunu umwa velile.
And they sent to him their disciples with the Herodians, saying: Master, we know that thou art a true speaker, and teachest the way of God in truth, neither carest thou for any man: for thou dost not regard the person of men.
17 Pu leinou Yeisu utuvule vwa vona ndhakeikhi? Panonghile, unkusanguncha nukhusongha eisongho khwa kesali pamo mwikho?”
Tell us therefore what dost thou think, is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?
18 Pu leino u Yeisu avumanyile uvvivi vwavo pu akhata, “Kheikhi munkhungela mweivangalukhi umwe?
But Jesus knowing their wickedness, said: Why do you tempt me, ye hypocrites?
19 Mume eindalama ya songo neilole puvakhapa eidinali.
Shew me the coin of the tribute. And they offered him a penny.
20 U Yeisu akhavavuncha, “Khiwani khyani eikhi?”
And Jesus saith to them: Whose image and inscription is this?
21 Pu vakhamula vakhata, “Khihwani Khya Kesali.”Pu humbe muhombenge khwa kesali ifyavukesali vwa mwene nei fya Nguluve mupe UNguluve.”
They say to him: Caesar’s. Then he saith to them: Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s; and to God, the things that are God’s.
22 Vavile vapolikhe ewo vadenghile fincho puvakhandekha vakhanja ukhuluta.
And hearing this they wondered, and leaving him, went their ways.
23 Pu eikhinghono eikhyo vakhinchaava Sadukai khwa Yeisu, avanu avavita vusikhuli uvunchikha, pu avavakhambuncha,
That day there came to him the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection; and asked him,
24 Vakhata, “Manyisi, u Mose atile, umunu angafwe khita hola mwana ulukololwe ahalanghe udala ufwile pu angh'olele ulukololwe umwana.
Saying: Master, Moses said: If a man die having no son, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up issue to his brother.
25 Pu khulyufwe kwale navana munu lekhela khumo. utanchi atolile udala pwakhafwa khitahola umwana. Pu akhandekhela ulukololwe udala.
Now there were with us seven brethren: and the first having married a wife, died; and not having issue, left his wife to his brother.
26 Pu yeikhava vuvuvwa nayulukololwe uva veilei vope na yuvadatu, pu voni saba yeikha vulevule savahole mwana.
In like manner the second, and the third, and so on to the seventh.
27 Pu leino udala vope nghukhafikha useikhi nghwa khufwa akhafwa.
And last of all the woman died also.
28 Pu leino khuvandukha valava vanchukhile voni pwa lava idala vani? Pakhuva voni lekhela khumo vale nave.”
At the resurrection therefore whose wife of the seven shall she be? for they all had her.
29 Pu u Yeisu akhavamula akhata mwiyangha, “Mwiyangha pakhuva sambumanyile uvusimbe na nghamakha ngha Nguluve.
And Jesus answering, said to them: You err, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.
30 Pu u Yeisu akhavavula akhata, khuvunchukha khusikhuli ukhutila khuve khuvu kha pu leino viva ndavasuhwa va Nguluve khukyanya.
For in the resurrection they shall neither marry nor be married; but shall be as the angels of God in heaven.
31 Hange pakhulongu ya vunhukha, samwembile eilimenyu eilinchoviwe nu Nguluve eiliita, Une neilei
And concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read that which was spoken by God, saying to you:
32 Nguluve va Abrahamu, neilei Nguluve va Isikakha, neileiNguluve va Yakobo? U Nguluve sa Nguluve vavafwile pu Nguluve vavumi.”
I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? He is not the God of the dead, but of the living.
33 Pu ululundamano vavile vapulikhe ewo vadenghile fincho.
And the multitudes hearing it, were in admiration at his doctrine.
34 Pu ava Farisai vavile vapulekhe ukhuta ava Sadukai, vavemilwe puvakhalundamana ava Farisai, vakhinchofanja.
But the Pharisees hearing that he had silenced the Sadducees, came together:
35 Pu umo, mwene umanyi va ndanghilo pu akhavunja elimenyu pakhunghela.
And one of them, a doctor of the law, asking him, tempting him:
36 “Pu akhata imanyisi, lyululanghilo luleikhu uluvaha ukhuluteila khunchinge mundangheilo?”
Master, which is the greatest commandment in the law?
37 U Yeisu pwakhamula akhata, “Ungananghe u Nguluve vakho nei numbula yakho yoni, na nghutima nghwakho nghyoni, na masagho ngha luhala lwakho lwoni.
Jesus said to him: Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole mind.
38 Ulu lyululanghilo uluvaha hange lulei mbulongolo.
This is the greatest and the first commandment.
39 Ulwa veilei luhwanine nulwa lyope lyu ulu - Unghananghe unino nduvu vwi nghanile yuve.
And the second is like to this: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
40 Eindanghilo nchoni eincha va nyamalangho muncheilotikhe mundangeilo eveilei inchi.”
On these two commandments dependeth the whole law and the prophets.
41 Pu ava Farisai vavalundamine pupaninie, U Yeisu akhavavuncha eilimenyu. Akhata,
And the Pharisees being gathered together, Jesus asked them,
42 “Pu!, musongha ndakheikhi ukhukongana nu keileisite? U mwene nswambe vani?” Pu avene vakhamula vakhata, “Nswambe va Daveite.”
Saying: What think you of Christ? whose son is he? They say to him: David’s.
43 Pu ndakheikhi, “U Daveite einchovela mwamepo ukhuta, 'U Nkuludeva ambulile u Nkuludeva vango,'
He saith to them: How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying:
44 Akhata tama khukhivokho khyango eikhya khundyo, punikhuvaveikhangha avatavangwa vakho pasi pa malunde nghakho.'”?”
The Lord said to my Lord, Sit on my right hand, until I make thy enemies thy footstool?
45 Pu leino eingave u Daveite inchova ita veinkuludeva va mwene, “Pu ivenchangha nswambe va mwene?”
If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?
46 Pu sa nghele umunu nayumo ukhwamula limenyu, hange ukhuhumangha eikhinghono khila sanghele munu ukhuvuncha limenyu.
And no man was able to answer him a word; neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.
