Mateu 15
1 Linu Vafalisi ni bañoli bamwi babezi kwa Jesu kuzwa Jerusalema. Nivati,
Then Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem, saying,
2 “Chinzi varutwana bako havaluta chisiyakulu chabatanzi? Mukuti kabashanji mayanza avo habalya.”
“Why do your disciples disobey the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat bread.”
3 Jesu abetavi mi navawambila kuti, linu inwe - hamurwisa idaezo ze Reeza ivaka lyachisiyakulu chenu chinzi?
He answered them, “Why do you also disobey the commandment of God because of your tradition?
4 Mukuti Ireeza avati, 'Uhe ikute kweso ni nyoko,' mi 'Iye yowamba bubilala kwesi ni nyina, ikumbya kafwe.'
For God commanded, ‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and, ‘He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him be put to death.’
5 Kono mute kuti, 'Yense yeti nati kubesi ni banyina, “Ituso yonse yimubali kuyelele kuwana kwangu linu chili impo iya kweReeza,”
But you say, ‘Whoever may tell his father or his mother, “Whatever help you might otherwise have gotten from me is a gift devoted to God,”
6 uzo muntu kayelele kukuteka besi. Chenzila yina bulyo wazimbuluka inzwi lye Reeza chevaka lachisayakulu chenu.
he shall not honor his father or mother.’ You have made the commandment of God void because of your tradition.
7 Inwe balihele, Isaya avapolofiti chakusima kazenu havati,
You hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying,
8 Aba bantu banikuteka chatuholo twavo, kono inkulo zabo zina kule name.
‘These people draw near to me with their mouth, and honor me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
9 Banilapela ni basawani chimwi, kakuli itumelo ivaruta izimene hetaelo zamuntu.”
And they worship me in vain, teaching as doctrine rules made by men.’”
10 Linu chalisupila ikunga ni kuliwambila kuti, “Mutekeleze ni kuzuwisisa -
He summoned the multitude, and said to them, “Hear, and understand.
11 Kakwina chinjila mukaholo chiizuza muntu ikwe. Muchibaka chobulyo, chizwa mukaholo, njecho chiizuza muntu ikwe.”
That which enters into the mouth does not defile the man; but that which proceeds out of the mouth, this defiles the man.”
12 Linu barutwana babezi ni kuwambila Jesu, “Kana wizi kuti bafalisi babanyelwa habazuwa ichi chiwambo?”
Then the disciples came and said to him, “Do you know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this saying?”
13 Jesu avetavi mi nati, “Chimenantu chonse chasanaavabyali Tayo wakwiwulu kachinyukulwe ni kusohelwa kunze. Mubasiye bobona, bahitili bazihofu.
But he answered, “Every plant which my heavenly Father did not plant will be uprooted.
14 Mi heva muhofu nahitila muhofu kunine, vonse kabawile mwilindi.”
Leave them alone. They are blind guides of the blind. If the blind guide the blind, both will fall into a pit.”
15 Pitorosi avetabi mi nati kwa Jesu, “Tutolokele iyi nguli.”
Peter answered him, “Explain the parable to us.”
16 Jesu nati, “nanwe muchiikele nimusena inkutwisiso?
So Jesus said, “Do you also still not understand?
17 Inwe kamuboni kuti chonse chiinjila mukaholo chihita kuya mwibumu mi linu chikazwa kuya muchimbuzi?”
Do not you understand that whatever goes into the mouth passes into the belly and then out of the body?
18 Kono zintu zizwa mukaholo zizwa kunkulo. Nji zintu ziizuza muntu ikwe.
But the things which proceed out of the mouth come out of the heart, and they defile the man.
19 Kakuli munkulo kuzwa mihupulo mibilala, vwihai, bubuki, zakusomana, busa, kupaka zamapa, ni kutukana.
For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, sexual sins, thefts, false testimony, and blasphemies.
20 Ezi nji zintu ziizuza muntu ikwe. Kono kulya ni mayanza asasambite kakwiizuzi muntu ikwe.”
These are the things which defile the man; but to eat with unwashed hands does not defile the man.”
21 Linu Jesu chayenda kuzwa mwecho chibaka kulikungula ni kuya muzikiliti zamileñi iba Tire ni Sidoni.
Jesus went out from there and withdrew into the region of Tyre and Sidon.
22 Mi hamulole, mwanakazi wa Mukanana abezi kuzwa mwechina chikiliti. Mi chahuweleza mi nichati, “Nifwile inse, Simwine, mwana a Daafita, mwanangu wamukazana ukatezwe madimona.”
Behold, a Canaanite woman came out from those borders and cried, saying, “Have mercy on me, Lord, you son of David! My daughter is severely possessed by a demon!”
23 Kono Jesu kana abamwitabi nanga inzwi. Barutwana bakwe babezi ni kumukumbila, ni bati, “Muhindikile kuna, kakuli utuchitala ilata.”
But he answered her not a word. His disciples came and begged him, saying, “Send her away; for she cries after us.”
24 Kono Jesu abetabi mi nati, “Kana nibatumwa kozuhi nozuhi kunze yembelele izobete munzuvo ya Isilaele.”
But he answered, “I was not sent to anyone but the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”
25 Kono iye neza nikwiza kufukama habusu bwakwe, nati, “Simwine, unituse.”
But she came and worshiped him, saying, “Lord, help me.”
26 Netaba nati, “Kakuyelele kuhinda chinkwa chabahwile ni kuchiha tumbwazana.”
But he answered, “It is not appropriate to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.”
27 Mwanakazi nati, “Eni Simwine, kono nanga tumbwazana tulyanga ziwanga kumilomo hetafule ibafumwa to.”
But she said, “Yes, Lord, but even the dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters’ table.”
28 Linu Jesu abetavi mi abati kwali, “Mwanakazi, itumelo yako inkando. Usiye kutendahale kwako sina mosakila.” Mi mwanakwe abaholi chehola iswana.
Then Jesus answered her, “Woman, great is your faith! Be it done to you even as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that hour.
29 Jesu abasiyi icho chibaka mi nayenda kumbali ni Iwate la Galileya. Kuzwaho abatanti kuya helunduzana ni kukekala hateni.
Jesus departed from there and came near to the sea of Galilee; and he went up on the mountain and sat there.
30 Ikunga ikando nilyeza kwali. Nibaleta bachukuta, bahofu, basatambi, ni basayendi, ni bamwi babali kulwala. Ni babaleta hamatende a Jesu, mi nabahoza bonse.
Great multitudes came to him, having with them the lame, blind, mute, maimed, and many others, and they put them down at his feet. He healed them,
31 Chobulyo ikunga nilyamakala chabukando hababona basatambi kuti chibawamba, bachukuta chibaba nenza, basayendi chibayenda, ni bahofu chibabona. Niba lumba Ereeza wa Isilaele.
so that the multitude wondered when they saw the mute speaking, the injured healed, the lame walking, and the blind seeing—and they glorified the God of Israel.
32 Jesu abasupi barutwana bakwe mi nati, “Nifwila ikunga inse, mukuti chibabekali name mazuba otatwe mi kakwina chibabali. Kanisuni kubalukulula ni basalile, kokuma sanzi bazuminini munzila.”
Jesus summoned his disciples and said, “I have compassion on the multitude, because they have continued with me now three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away fasting, or they might faint on the way.”
33 Barutwana nibawamba kwali ni bati, “Katuwane kuhi mañende azinkwa mwihalaupa likena buti kuti tufepe ikunga ikando buti?”
The disciples said to him, “Where could we get so many loaves in a deserted place as to satisfy so great a multitude?”
34 Jesu nabawambila kuti, “Mwina mañende ongahi?” Babetabi kuti, “Amana iyanza ni obele, ni tunswi tulikene.”
Jesus said to them, “How many loaves do you have?” They said, “Seven, and a few small fish.”
35 Linu Jesu nalaela ikunga kwikala hansi.
He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground;
36 Nichahinda mañende amana iyanza ni obele ni nswi, mi hamana kulitumela, ni changamona mañende ni kwaha kubarutwana bakwe. Barutwana nibaha mañende kwikunga.
and he took the seven loaves and the fish. He gave thanks and broke them, and gave to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes.
37 Bantu bonse nibalya ni kuikuta. Mi nibakunganya zilyo zibashali zibangamoki tukoto, zitanda zimana iyanza ni zobele ni zezula.
They all ate and were filled. They took up seven baskets full of the broken pieces that were left over.
38 Babali ibali balule bone, kuzwisa kwateñi banakazi ni bahwile.
Those who ate were four thousand men, in addition to women and children.
39 Linu Jesu chalukulula ikunga mi nenjila muchikepe ni kuya muchikiliti cha Magadani.
Then he sent away the multitudes, got into the boat, and came into the borders of Magdala.
