Marko 12
1 Kisha Yesu akayanda kubhafundisya kwa mifano. Akajobha, “Munu apandili n'gonda ghwa mizabibu, akalisyongosela bhuzio, na akagima lilenda lya kusindika mvinyo. Akajenga mnara ni kisha akalipangisya n'gonda ghwa mizabibu kwa bhakulima bha mizabibu. Kisha asafiri safari jha patali.
Then He began to speak to them in parables: “A man planted a vineyard—put a hedge around it, dug a wine trough, built a tower—rented it to farmers and went on a journey.
2 Wakati bho bhufikili, an'tumili n'tumishi kwa bhakulima bha mizabibu kutola kuh'omela kwa bhene baadhi jha matunda gha n'gonda ghwa mizabibu.
At the proper time he sent a slave to the farmers, that he might receive from them some of the fruit of the vineyard.
3 Lakini bhan'kamuili, bhan'tobhili, ni kumb'enga bila kyokyoha.
But they took him, beat him, and sent him away empty-handed.
4 Akan'tuma kwa bhene kabhele n'tumishi jhongi, bhakan'jeruhi kumutu ni kun'ketela mambo gha soni.
Again he sent another slave to them, and that one they wounded in the head by stoning, and sent him away shamefully treated.
5 Bado an'tumili jhongi, ni ojho mmonga bha n'kamili. Bhabhaketili bhangi bhingi mambo kama bhaghabhuene, bhakabhatobha ni bhangi kubhakhoma.
Again he sent another, and him they killed; and many others, beating some and killing some.
6 Ajhe bado ni munu mmonga zaidi ghwa kun'tuma, mwana mpendwa. Ni muene ajhele ghwa mwishu jha atumibhu kwa bhene. Akajobha, “Bhibeta kun'heshimu mwanabhangu”.
Finally, still having his one beloved son, he even sent him to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’
7 Lakini bhapangaji bhajobhisene bhene kwa bhene, “Ojho ndo mrithi. Mhidayi, hebu na tun'komayi, ni bhurithi bhwibeta kujha bhwa tete.”
But those farmers said to one another: ‘This is the heir. Come, let's kill him and the inheritance will be ours.’
8 Bhakamvamila, bhakan'koma ni kum'tagha kwibhala mu n'gonda ghwa mizabibu.
So they took him, killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard.
9 Henu, Je! ibeta kuketa kiki mmiliki ghwa n'gonda ghwa mizabibu? ibeta kuhida ni kubhajhangamisya bhakulima bha mizabibu kulikabidhi n'gonda ghwa mizabibu kwa bhangi.
“What therefore will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy those farmers, and give the vineyard to others.
10 Mbwajhilepi kusoma liandiku ele? “Liganga ambalyo bhajenzi bha libelili, limalikujha liganga lya palubhafu.
Have you not even read this Scripture: ‘The stone that the builders rejected, is the very one that became the cornerstone;
11 Ela lyahomili kwa Bwana na lya ajabu pamihu pa tete.”
this was the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?”
12 Bhakalonda kunikamula Yesu, Lakini bhabhatilili makutano kwani bhamanyili kujha ajobhili mfuano bhola kwandabha jha bhene. Hivyo bhakandeka ni kubhoka.
So they started looking for a way to arrest Him, because they knew He had spoken the parable against them, but they were in fear of the crowd. Then they left Him and went away.
13 Kisha bhakabhatuma Mafarisayo ni Maherodia ili kuntegha kwa malobhi.
Then they sent some of the Pharisees and of the Herodians to Him, in order to trap Him with a question.
14 Bho bhafikili, bhakan'jobhela, Mwalimu, tumanyili kujha ghwijali lepi maoni gha jhejhioha jhola na ghwilasya lepi bhupendulu kati jha bhanu. Ghwimanyisya njela jha K'yara mu bhukweli. Je! ndo haki kulepa kodi kwa Kaisari au la? Je! Twibhwesya kulepa au la?
Upon arriving they said to Him: “Teacher, we know that you are honest—you do not ‘protect’ anyone, because you do not consider the position of people, but teach the way of God in truth—is it right to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?
15 Lakini Yesu amanyili bhunafiki bhwa bhene ni kubhajobhela, “Kwa ndajhakiki mkanijaribu? Munipelayi dinari nibhwesiajhi kujhilanga.”
Should we pay, or should we not?” But knowing their hypocrisy, He said to them: “Why are you testing me? Bring me a denarius to look at.”
16 Bhakaleta jhimonga kwa Yesu, Akabhajobhela, “Je! ijhe sura jha niani ni maandishi ghaghajhele apa gha niani? Bhakajobha, “Kaisari.”
So they did, and He said to them, “Whose image and inscription is this?” They said to Him, “Caesar's.”
17 Yesu akabhajobhela, “Mumpelayi Kaisari fenu fya Kaisari ni K'yara fenu fya K'yara.” Bhakan'staajabu.
Then Jesus answered them by saying, “Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.” And they marveled at Him.
18 Kisha Masadukayo, bhabhijobha bhujhelepi bhufufuo, bhakandotela. Bhakan'kota, bhakajobha,
Then some Sadducees came to Him—they say there is no resurrection—and asked Him, saying:
19 “Mwalimu, Musa atujhandikili kujha, 'Ndongo ghwa munu afuili ni kundeka n'dala munu kumbele kwa muene, lakini aleki lepi muana, munu ibetakun'tola n'dala ghwa ndongo munu, ni kwikabhela bhana kwandabha jha ndongo munu.'
“Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man's brother dies and leaves behind a wife, but no children, then his brother should take that wife and raise up offspring for his brother.
20 Kwajhele ni bhanandugu saba ghwa kwanza atolili n'dala ni kisha akafwa, alekili lepi bhana.
Well there were seven brothers. The first took a wife, and dying left no offspring.
21 Kisha ghwa pili an'tolili ni muene akafwa alekilepi bhana. Ni ghwa tatu jhajhe mebhu.
So the second one took her, and died; and neither did he leave any offspring. The third likewise.
22 Ni ghwa saba afuili bila kuleka bhana. Mwishowe ni n'dala ni muene akafwa.
In fact, all seven took her, and left no offspring. Last of all the woman also died.
23 Wakati ghwa bhufufuo, pabhibeta kufufuka kabhele He! ibeta kujha n'dala, ghwa niani? Kwani bhala bhanandugu bhoha saba bhajhele bhagosi munu.”
In the resurrection, whenever they may rise, whose wife will she be?—because all seven had her as wife.”
24 Yesu akabhajobhela, “Je! Ejhe sababu lepi kujha mu potosibhu, kwa ndabha mumanyilepi mayandiku wala ngofu sya K'yara?”
Then in answer Jesus said to them: “You do not know the Scriptures nor the power of God—is this not the reason that you err?
25 Wakati bhwa kufufuka kuh'omela kwa bhafu, bhibeta lepi kugega, wala kujhingila mu ndobho, bali bhibeta kujha kama malaika bha kumbinguni.
Whenever people rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in the heavens.
26 Lakini, kuhusu bhafu bha bhifufulibhwa, Je! Mwasomilepi kuhomela kitabu kya Musa, Mu bahari sya kichaka, jinsi K'yara kyaajobhili ni kun'jobhela, 'Nene ndo K'yara ghwa Ibrahimu ni K'yara ghwa Isaka, ni K'yara ghwa Yakobo?'
But concerning the dead, that they rise, have you not read in the book of Moses, about the Bush, how God spoke to him, saying, ‘I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’?
27 Muene K'yara ghwa bhafulepi, bali bhabhajhe hai. Ndo bhukweli mupotuiki.”
He is not the God of dead people, but the God of living ones. You are therefore badly mistaken.”
28 Mmonga ghwa bhaandishi akahida ni kup'elekesya mazungumzo gha bhene; abhwene kujha Yesu abhajitili kinofu. “Je! amri jheleku jha muhimu zaidi kuliko senge?”
Then one of the scribes came on the scene, heard them arguing, realized that He had answered them well, and asked Him, “Which is the first commandment of all?”
29 Yesu akan'jibu, “Jhaijhele jha muhimu ejhe, “Pelekayi, Israeli, Bwana K'yara ghwitu, Bwana ndo mmonga.
Jesus answered him: “The first of all the commandments is: ‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord your (pl) God, the Lord is one;
30 Lazima un'ganayi Bwana K'yara ghwa jhobhi muoyo ghwa jhobhi bhuoha, kwa roho jha jhobhi, kwa luhala kwa jhobhi lwoha, ni kwa ngofu sya jhobhi syoha.'
and you (sg) shall love the Lord your (sg) God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment.
31 Amri jha pili ejhe, 'Lazima un'ganayi jirani ghwa jhobhi kama kyaukigana ghwa jobhi.' Ijhelepi amri jhenge mbaha zaidi jha e'se.”
And the second, like it, is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”
32 Mwandishi akajobha, “Knofu Mwalimu! Ujobhili bhukweli kujha K'yara ni mmonga, ni kujha ajhelepi jhongi zaidi jha muene.
So the scribe said to Him: “Well said, teacher; you said truly that He is one, and there is no other except He.
33 Kun'gana muene kwa muoyo bhuoha, ni kwa bhufahamu bhuoha, ni kwa nghofu syoha nikun'gana jirani kama muene ni muhimu kuliko matoleo gha dhabihu sya kuteketesibhwa.”
And to love Him with all the heart and with all the understanding and with all the soul and with all the strength, and to love the neighbor as oneself, is more than all the whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.”
34 Wakati Yesu abhuene ahomisi lijibu lya busara akan'jobhela, “Bhebhe ujhelepi patali ni bhufalme bhwa K'yara.” Baada jha hapo ajhelepi hata mmonga jhe athubutiuli kun'kota Yesu maswali ghoghoha.
Now when Jesus saw that he answered wisely, He said to him, “You are not far from the Kingdom of God.” And after that no one dared ask Him any question.
35 Ni Yesu akajibu bho ifundisya mu hekalu, akajobha, “Je! bhaandishi bhijobha bhuli kujha Kristu ndo mwana ghwa Daudi?
Then, teaching in the temple, Jesus reacted by saying: “How is it that the scribes say that the Messiah is David's son?
36 Daudi muene mu Roho mtakatifu, ajobhili, 'Bwana ajobhili kwa Bwana ghwa nene tamayi mu kibhoko kya nene kya kuume, mpaka nibhabhombajhi maaduibha bhebhe kujha pasi pa magolo gha bhebhe.'
Because David himself said by the Holy Spirit: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, until I place your enemies as a stool for your feet.”’
37 Daudi muene akan'kuta Kristu, 'Bwana' Je! ni mwana ghoa Daudi kwa jinsi gani?” Ni likusanyiku libhala lyamp'elekisi kwa furaha.
Therefore David himself calls Him ‘Lord’; so how can He be his son?” The large crowd listened to Him with pleasure.
38 Mu mafundisho gha muene na Yesu ajobhili, “Mukitahadhariajhi ni bhaandishi, bhabhinoghela kugenda ni likanzu litali ni kusalimibhwa mu masoko.
Then He said to them in His teaching: “Beware of the scribes, who like to walk about in long robes and to get greetings in the market places,
39 ni kutama mu fiti fya bha bhaha mu masinagogi ni mu sikukuu mu maeneo gha bhabhaha.
and the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts;
40 Pia bhilya nyumba sya bhajana bhis'oma maombi matali ili bhanu bha bhabhonayi. Bhanu abha bhibeta kupokela hukumu mbaha.”
who devour the houses of widows, while praying long and loud for a show. These will receive a more severe judgment.”
41 Kisha Yesu atumili pasi karibu ni lisanduku lya sadaka mugati mu lihekalu; ajhele ilola bhanu bha bhajhele bhisopa hela sya bhene mu kisanduku. Bhanu bhingi matajiri bhabhekili kiasi kibhaha kya pesa.
Then Jesus sat down opposite the offering chest and started watching how the people were depositing money into the chest. Many rich people put in large amounts.
42 Kisha n'dala mjane maskini akahida ni kus'opa fipandi fibhele, thamani jha senti.
A certain poor widow also came and put in two ‘lepta’, which equal a ‘quadrans’.
43 Kisha akabhakuta bhanafunzi bha muene ni kubhajobhela, “Muaminiajhi nikabhajobhela, N'dala ojho mjane asopili kiasi kibhaha zaidi jha bhuoha ambabho bhamalikusopa lya sadaka.
So summoning His disciples He said to them: “I tell you assuredly that this poor widow has put more in the chest than all these contributors;
44 Kwani bhoha bhasopili kutokana ni bhwingi bhwa mapato gha bhene. Lakini n'dala mjane ojho, kutokana ni umasikini bhwa muene, asopili hela jhioha ambajho alondekeghe kuitumila kwa maisha gha muene.”
because they all gave out of their excess, but she, out of her lack, put in all that she had, her whole livelihood.”
