Mateu 11
1 I, nako hayisika mu kumana Jesu a va layi Valutwana vakwe vene nkumi ni vovele, cha yenda kuzwaho ni kutanga kuluta ni ku kutaza mu mileneñi yabo.
And it came to passe when Iesus had made an ende of comaundinge his. xii. disciples that he departed thence to teache and to preache in their cities.
2 Linu Joani na nga zuwa mwi ntolongo inkenzo za Kereste, cha tumina iñusa ni valutwana vakwe
When Ihon beinge in preson hearde ye workes of Christ he sent two of his disciples
3 mi chi va wamba kwali, “Kana njiwe yo Keza, kapa kwina zumwi muntu utu swanela kulola?”
and sayde vnto him. Arte thou he that shall come: or shall we loke for another.
4 Jesu ave tabi mi cha wamba kuvali, “Mu yende mi mukavihe kwa Joani zi mwa vona ni kuzuwa.
Iesus answered and sayde vnto them. Go and shewe Ihon what ye have hearde and sene.
5 Zivofu va tambula kuvona, zihole zi yenda, ve mbingwa ba jolola, va sa zuwi va zuwe, va fwile va vukile vuhalo, mi vantu va saka ku zuwa linzwi va kutazwe.
The blynd se the halt goo the lepers are clensed: the deef heare the ded ryse ageyne and the glad tidinges is preached to the povre.
6 Imbuyoti yi ve kwa vo, vasa nya nsilizi linzwi.”
And happy is he that is not offended by me.
7 A va vakwame ha va yenda nzila yabo, Kereste cha tanga ku wambila chi chaba ka za Joani, “Zile muyendele nzi mwi Halaupa ku kalwela mpe zi hungiswa luhuho?
And as they departed Iesus begane to speake vnto the people of Ihon. What for to se wet ye out in to the wyldernes? wet ye out to se a rede shake with ye wynde?
8 Linu zile muyendelezi ku kavona - muntu yo zavele zizwato zi huva? Initi, avo vazwata zizwato zi huvilila vahale muzubo ya simwine.
other what wet ye out for to se? A man clothed in soofte raymet: ? Beholde they yt weare soofte clothig are in kynges howses.
9 Chi nzi chi muyendela kuka bona, mupolofita? Ee, ni wamba kwenu, mi hahulu kuhita mupolofita.
But what wet ye oute for to se? A prophete? Ye I saye to you and more the a prophete.
10 Nji yena za kwe, zi ñoleletwe, 'Mu vone, ni tumina muhikana wangu havusu vwenu, ye se a lukise inzila yenu, havusu bwenu.'
For this is he of who it is wrytte. Beholde I sende my messenger before thy face which shall prepare thy waye before ye.
11 Ni wamba kwenu, che niti, kwa vo, vava pepwa ku vanakazi, kakwina mukando kwa Joani Mukolobezi. Linu munini mu mubuso we Reeza, kwiwulu njo mukando.
Verely I saye vnto you amonge ye chyldren of wemen arose there not a gretter then Ihon the baptist. Notwithstondinge he that ys lesse in the kyngdome of heven ys gretter then he.
12 Ku zwa muma zuva a Joani Mukolobezi ku sika sunu, mubuso we Reeza uhindwa chamata mi vakwame vakali va u hinda cha kunyanga.
From the tyme of Ihon Baptist hytherto ye kyngdome of heve suffreth violence and they that go to it with violence pluck it vnto them.
13 Vapolofita vonse ni mulao, vava polofiti konji kusika kwa Joani Mukolobazi.
For all the prophetes and the lawe prophesyed vnto to the tyme of Ihon.
14 Heba no tavela kutambula, uzu Elia, iye yo swanela kukeza.
Also yf ye wyll receave it this is Helyas which shuld come.
15 Uzo, wina matwi akuzuwa, mu musiye atekeleze.
He yt hathe eares to heare let him heare.
16 Kani, vamba nye, ni chinzi kolu lusika? Kuswana sina vahwile, va kwete kuzanina ama wuzikizo a musika, vekele ni vali sumpa,
But wher vnto shall I lyken this generacion? It ys lyke vnto chyldre which syt in the market and call vnto their felowes
17 ni bati, 'twa miliizikize mpeeta kono kana mwa zana. Twa silisa, kono kana mwa donsa zinsozi.'
and saye: we have pyped vnto you and ye have not daunsed? We have morned vnto you and ye have not sorowed.
18 Kana Joani kana vezi kuku lya chinkwa, kapa kuñywa i waine, mi ni vata kuti wina, 'Madimona.'
For Ihon came nether eatinge nor drinkinge and they saye he hath the devyll.
19 Mwana'Muntu, abezi ku lya, ni kuñywa, ni vata kuti, 'Mu vwene, mukwame mulyabi, ni vudakwa, mulikana va telisi va mutelo, ni batenda zibi!' Kono vutali vu vwene kete chi vu tendwa.”
The sonne of man came eatinge and drinkinge and they saye beholde a glutton and drynker of wyne and a frend vnto publicas and synners. Never the later wysdome ys iustified of hir children.
20 Kuzwa aho, Jesu cha tanga ku kalimela minzi yonse ya vatendi I makazo mwa teni, kakuti kena vava vaki,
Then bega he to vpbrayd the cities in which most of his miracles were done because they meded not.
21 “Wina bumayi iwe Koranizini! Wina bumayi iwe Betsaida! Heva zikando ziva tendwa mu minzi ya Tire ni Sidoni ziba tendwa inwe ni ziva voleli kale za kuzwata masaka ni kulivumbeka mufuse.
Wo be to ye Chorasin. Wo be to ye Betzaida: for if the miracles which were shewd in you had bene done in Tyre and Sidon they had repented longe agone in sackcloth and asshes.
22 Kono kakuve kuhuva kwi koto ye katulo ya Tire ni Sidoni kuhita yenu.
Neverthelesse I say to you: it shall be esier for Tyre and Sidon at the day of iudgemet then for you.
23 I we, Kapenauma, uzeza kuti mo yende kwiwulu? Nanta, mo bozwe mwi Hele. Sina mwa Sodoma muva tendelwe zikando ni kwenu, ni ziba shali bulyo kusikila lya sunu. (Hadēs g86)
And thou Capernau which art lift vp vnto heve shalt be brought doune to hell. For if the miracles which have bene done in the had bene shewed in zodom: they had remayned to this daye. (Hadēs g86)
24 Kono, niti kwenu, ka ku huvahale munkanda ya Sodoma che nako ye nkatulo, kuhita kwenu.”
Neverthelesse I saye vnto you: it shalbe easiar for ye londe of zodo in the daye of iudgemet the for ye.
25 Che nako iyo Jesu avati, “Ni lumbeka Tayo Ireeza, Simwine wewulu ne nkanda, kakuti aba humbili vatali, ku zuwisisa ni kwi zivahaza kwavo, va sali tutite, sina vahwile,
At yt tyme Iesus answered and sayd: I prayse ye o father lorde of heve and erth because thou hast hid these thinges fro the wyse and prudet and hast opened the vnto babes:
26 Ee, che niti, Tayo, kutendwe intanto yako.
eve so father for so it pleased ye.
27 Zintu zonse zi va tendwa cha Ngu kuzwila kwa Tayo, Mi kakwina nanga umwina wizi mwana konji Tayo, mi kakwina umwina wizi Tayo konji Mwana, mi kuzumwi sina Mwana' yo lakeze kulitondeza kwali.
All thinges are geve vnto me of my father. And noma knoweth ye sonne but ye father: nether knoweth eny ma ye father save ye sonne and he to whome ye sonne will ope him.
28 Mwize kwa ngu, mwense mu lemenwe ni ku suntika, mi kani mihe mpumulo.
Come vnto me all ye that laboure and are laden and I wyll ease you.
29 Muhinde i jokwe lya ngu mulikulike mi mulitute kwangu, kakuti nina chisemo ni nkulo indotu, mi ka muwanine inhuho zenu impumulo.
Take my yoke on you and lerne of me for I am meke and lowly in herte: and ye shall fynd rest vnto youre soules.
30 Kakuti i jokwe lyangu ihuva mi muziyo wangu muhuva.”
For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.
