< Matayo 12 >

1 Bhwakati obhu Yesu alotili ligono lya sabato kup'hetela mumigonda. Bhanafunzi bha muene bha j'hele ni njala na bhakayanda kughadumula masuke ni kulya.
At that time Jesus went on the sabbath day through the corn; and his disciples were an hungered, and began to pluck the ears of corn and to eat.
2 Lakini Mafarisayo bho bhabhuene aghu, bhakan'jobhela Yesu “Langai bhanafunzi bha j'hobhi bhifunja sheria bhibhomba ligono lyaliruhusibhu lepi ligono lya Sabato”
But when the Pharisees saw it, they said to him, Behold, your disciples do that which is not lawful to do on the sabbath day.
3 Lakini Yesu akabhajobhela, “Msomilepi jinsi Daudi kya abhombili, bhwakati aj'hele ni njala, pamonga ni bhana bha aj'he nabhu?
But he said to them, Have you not read what David did, when he was an hungered, and they that were with him;
4 Namna kyaaj'hingili mgati mu nyumba j'ha K'yara ni mikate ghya bhonyesho, ambaghyo ghyaj'hele lepi halali kwa muene kulya ni bhala bhaaj'hele nabhu, ila halali kwa Makuhani?
How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the show bread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him, but only for the priests?
5 Bado musomilepi mu sheria, kuj'ha ligono lya Sabato Makuhani mugati mu lihekalu j'hikainajisi Sabato, lakini bhaj'helepi ni hatia?
Or have you not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless?
6 Lakini nijobha kwa muenga kuj'ha j'ha aj'he mmbaha kuliko hekalu aj'he apa.
But I say to you, That in this place is one greater than the temple.
7 Kama ngamumanyi ej'he j'himaanisha kiki; nilonda rehema na sio dhabihu ngamubhahukumuili lepi bhabhaduli hatia,
But if you had known what this means, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, you would not have condemned the guiltless.
8 Kwa kuj'ha Mwana ghwa Adamu ndij'je Bwana ghwa Sabato.”
For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day.
9 Kisha Yesu akabhoka pala akalota mu lisinagogi lyabhu.
And when he was departed there, he went into their synagogue:
10 Langaghe twaj'hele ni munu j'haapozili kibhoko. Mafarisayo bhakankota Yesu, bhakajobha. “'Je, ndo halali kuponesya ligono lya Sabato?” ili bhabhwesiaghe kumshtaki kwa kubhomba dhambi.
And, behold, there was a man which had his hand withered. And they asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath days? that they might accuse him.
11 Yesu akabhajobhela, “Niani kati j'ha muenga, ambaj'he ikaj'hiaghe ni likondoo limonga, ligono e'lu likabina mu lil'ende ligono lya sabato, ibetalepi kun'kamula ni kumbosya kwa ngofu ligono lya sabato mulil'ende?
And he said to them, What man shall there be among you, that shall have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath day, will he not lay hold on it, and lift it out?
12 Je, k'heleku kyakij'hele ni thamani, zaidi hoti, si zaidi j'ha likondoo! Henu ni halali kubhomba manofu ligono lya Sabato.”
How much then is a man better than a sheep? Why it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days.
13 Kisha Yesu akabhajobhela munu y'ola, “Nyoosyaghe kibhoko” Akanyosya, na ukakabha afya, kama bhongi bhola.
Then says he to the man, Stretch forth your hand. And he stretched it forth; and it was restored whole, like as the other.
14 Lakini Mafarisayo bhakap'hita kwibhala ni kupanga jinsi j'ha kunjangamisya bhakalota kwibhala kupanga kinyume kyake. Bhaj'hele bhilonda jinsi j'ha kun'koma.
Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how they might destroy him.
15 Yesu bho aj'helibhu e'le akabhoka apu. Bhanu bhingi bhakan'kesya na akabhaponya bhoha.
But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from there: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all;
16 Akabhalaghisya bhasihidi bhakambomba amanyikanai kwa bhangi,
And charged them that they should not make him known:
17 kwamba j'hitimilayi j'hela kweli, j'haj'hikajobhibhu ni nabii Isaya, akajobha,
That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying,
18 Langai, mtumishi bhwangu j'hanin'salili n'ganwa ghwangu, kwa muene nafsi j'ha nene j'hihobhwiki. Nibetakubheka Roho j'hangu panani pa muene, na ibetakutangasya hukumu kwa Mataifa.
Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit on him, and he shall show judgment to the Gentiles.
19 Ibetalepi kuhangaika bhwala kulela kwa ngofu; bhwala j'hoj'hioha j'hola kup'heleka sauti j'ha muene mitaani. Ibetalepi kulidumula lidete lyalichubulibhu;
He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice in the streets.
20 ibetalepi kusimisya bhutambi bhobhuoha bhwabhwihomesya liosi, mpaka pa mwibeta kuleta hukumu na j'hitolaghe.
A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgment to victory.
21 Ni Mataifa bhibetakuj'ha ni bhujasiri mu lihina lyake.
And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.
22 Munu fulani kipofu ni bubu, j'haapagawa ni pepo aletibhu mbele j'ha Yesu. Amponyisi, pamonga ni matokeo gha munu bubu ajobhili ni kulola.
Then was brought to him one possessed with a devil, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, so that the blind and dumb both spoke and saw.
23 Makutano bhoha bhashangale ni kujobha, “J'hibhwesekana munu oj'ho muana ghwa Daudi?”
And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David?
24 Lakini pindi Mafarisayo bho bhap'heliki muujiza obho bhakajobha, “Munu oj'ho ibhosya lepi pepo kwa ngofu sya muene isipokuj'ha kwa ngofu sya Belzebuli, m'baha ghwa pepo.
But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow does not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils.
25 “Lakini Yesu amanyili fikra sya bhene na akabhajobhela, “Kila bhufalme bhwa bhugawanyiki bhuene bhwiharibika, ni khila mji au nyumba j'haj'higawanyika j'hiene j'hij'hema lepi.
And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:
26 Ikaj'hiaghe Syetani, ibetakumbosya Syetani, basi ikipinga mu nafsi j'ha muene.
And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand?
27 Ni namna gani bhufalme bhwake bhwibeta kuj'hema? Na kama nibhosya pepo kwa ngofu sya Belizabuli, bhafuasi bhinu bhibetakubhosya kwa nj'hela j'ha niani? Kwa ndabha j'ha e'le bhibetakuj'ha mahakimu bhinu.
And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast them out? therefore they shall be your judges.
28 Na kama nibhosya pepo kwa ng'hofu sya Roho ghwa K'yara, basi bhufalme bhwa K'yara bhuhidili kwa muenga.
But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come to you.
29 Na munu ibetakubhwesya bhuli kuj'hingila mu nyumba j'ha munu mwenye nghofu ni kuh'eja, bila kun'konga mwenye nghofu hosi? Ndipo ibetakuh'eja mali ghakhe kuhoma mugati mu nyumba.
Or else how can one enter into a strong man’s house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? and then he will spoil his house.
30 J'hej'hoiha j'hola j'haabeli kuj'ha pamonga nani aj'he kinyume ni nene, ni j'haibetalepi kubhongan'ya pamonga nani oj'hu itabhwanya.
He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathers not with me scatters abroad.
31 Kwa hiyo nijobha kwa muenga, kila dhambi ni kufuru bhana bhibetakusamehebhwa, ila kun'kufuru Roho Mtakatifu bhibetakusamehebhwalepi
Why I say to you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven to men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven to men.
32 . Na j'hej'hioha j'haijobha lilobhi kinyume kya Mwana ghwa Adamu, e'lu libetakusamehebhwa. Lakini j'hej'hioha j'hola j'haijobha kinyume ni Roho Mtakatifu, oj'hu ibetalepi kusamehebhwa mu bhulimwengu obho, na bhwala bhola bhwa bhwihida. (aiōn g165)
And whoever speaks a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whoever speaks against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come. (aiōn g165)
33 Ama ubhombaghe libehe kuj'ha linofu ni litunda lyake kuj'ha linofu, au uharibuaj'hi litunda ni libehe lyake, kwa kuj'ha libehe litambulisibhwa kwa litunda lyakhe.
Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit.
34 Muenga kizazi kya liyoka, muenga bhaovu, mwebhwesya bhuli kujobha mambo manofu? Kwa kuj'ha kinywa kijobha kuhoma mu akiba j'ha ghaghaj'hele mu muoyo.
O generation of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
35 Munu nnofu mu akiba j'hinofu j'ha muoyo bhwake ghihoma manofu, na munu muovu mu akiba ovu j'ha muoyo bhwake ghwih'omesya kyakyaj'hele kiovu.
A good man out of the good treasure of the heart brings forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things.
36 Nikabhajobhela kuj'ha mu ligono lya hukumu bhanu bhibetakuh'omesya hesabu j'ha khila lilobhi lyalij'helepi ni maana lyabhalijobhili.
But I say to you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
37 Kwa kuj'ha malobhi gha j'hobhi ghwibetakubhalangibhwa haki ni kwa malobhi gha j'hobhi ghwibetahukumibhwa.”
For by your words you shall be justified, and by your words you shall be condemned.
38 Kisha baadhi j'ha bhaandishi ni Mafarisayo bhan'jibili Yesu bhakajobha” Mwalimu, tulondeghe kubhona ishara kuhoma kwa bhebhe.” Lakini Yesu akajibu ni kubhajobhela, “Kizazi kiovu na lya zinaa kilonda ishara.
Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from you.
39 Lakini j'hij'helepi ishara j'haj'hibetakupisibhwa kwa bhene isipokuj'ha j'hela ishara j'ha Yona nabii.
But he answered and said to them, An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas:
40 Kama vile nabii Yona kyaaj'hele mugati mu lileme lya somba m'baha kwa magono madatu pamusi ni pakilu, hivyo ndivyo Mwana ghwa Adamu kyaibetakuj'ha mugati mu mioyo ghya nchi kwa magono madatu pamusi ni pakilu.
For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale’s belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
41 Bhanu bha ninawi bhibetakuj'hema mbele j'ha hukumu pamonga ni kizazi kya bhanu abha ni bhibetakukihukumu. Kwa kuj'ha bhatubuili kwa mahubiri gha Yona, na langai, munu fulani m'baha kuliko Yona apa.
The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas is here.
42 Malkia ghwa kusini ibetakujhinuka mu hukumu pamonga ni bhanu bha kizazi e'khe ni kukihukumu. Ahidili kuhoma miisho ghya dunia kuhida kup'heleka hekima j'ha Selemani, na langai, munu fulani m'baha kuliko Selemani aj'hele apa.
The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for she came from the uttermost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here.
43 Bhwakati pepo bhachafu bhakamboka munu ghip'heta mahali papaj'helepi ni masi ilonda kup'homoseka, lakini akapabhona lepi.
When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walks through dry places, seeking rest, and finds none.
44 Kisha ijobha, “Nibetakherebhuka mu nyumba j'hangu j'hanihomili.' Paikherebhuka akajhikholela nyumba j'hisafishibhu na ij'hele tayari.
Then he says, I will return into my house from where I came out; and when he is come, he finds it empty, swept, and garnished.
45 Kisha huenda ni kubhaleta bhangi roho bhachafu saba bhabhaj'hele bhabhibhi zaidi kuliko muene, ghihida kutama ghoha pala. Ni hali j'hiakhe j'ha mwisho huwa j'hibhibhi kuliko j'ha kubhwandelu. Efe ndo kyaj'hibeta kuj'ha kwa kizazi ekhe kiovu.
Then goes he, and takes with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also to this wicked generation.
46 Bhwakati Yesu ilongela ni bhumati langai, nyinamunu ni bhalongomunu bhakhaj'hema kwibhala, bhakaj'ha bhilonda kulongela nakhu.
While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brothers stood without, desiring to speak with him.
47 Munu mmonga akan'jobhela, “Langai nyinuaku ni bhalongobhu bhaj'hemili kwibhala bhilonda kulongela ni bhebhe”.
Then one said to him, Behold, your mother and your brothers stand without, desiring to speak with you.
48 Lakini Yesu ni kun'jobhela j'haan'jobheleghe, “Mabhu ndo niani? Ni bhalongobhangu ndo bha niani?”
But he answered and said to him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brothers?
49 Nu muene akanyosya kibhokho kya muene kwa bhanafunzi ni kujobha, “Langai abha ndo mabhu ni bhalongobhangu!
And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brothers!
50 Kwa kuj'ha j'hej'hioha j'hola j'haibhomba mapenzi gha Tata ghwangu j'haaj'hele kumbinguni, munu oj'hu ndo ndongobhangu, n'dombo bhangu ni mabhu ghwa nene”.
For whoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.
