Mateu 18

1 Mwinako iswana. Jesu “abawambi kubaluti bakwe njeni mukando mwiulu.”

At the same time came the disciples to Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

2 Jesu casumpa muhwire nikumubika mukati kabo,

And Jesus called a little child to him, and set him in the middle of them,

3 “ikumbya ni wamba kwenu Konji hosanduka niku swana sina bahwile banini, kakwina mowolela kwi njirira mumubuso wa kwi ulu.

And said, Truly I say to you, Except you be converted, and become as little children, you shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

4 Cwale muntu uliboza mwi konde Sina Muhwile Munini, muntu yoswana nji mukando mumubuso wa kwiulu.

Whoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

5 Yense yotambula muhwire munini mwi zina lyangu watambula ime.

And whoever shall receive one such little child in my name receives me.

6 Yense yoletisa kuti aba bahwire bachite bubi, kwina butuka kuti asuminwe ibwe ikando mwinsingo, nikumusohela mubuliba bwe wate.

But whoever shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

7 Bumai kwinkanda kakuli inako celi za kucuncula! Ka kuli kwina butokwa kuti izo inako zikeza! Kono bumai kacozo muntu izi inako kazize cakwe!

Woe to the world because of offenses! for it must needs be that offenses come; but woe to that man by whom the offense comes!

8 Haiba iiyanza lyako kapa itende lyako likuletela kuwa, likosole kwateni ni kulisohela kule nawe. Kwina butuka kwako kwi njila mubuso wakwilu ni uli cihole kwanda kuuti usohelwe mumulilo usazimi ni wina onse mayanza ni matende. (aiōnios g166)

Why if your hand or your foot offend you, cut them off, and cast them from you: it is better for you to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire. (aiōnios g166)

9 Haiba linso lyako likuleteza kufosai, lizwise mo ulisohele kule nawe. Kushiyeme kwako kwi njila mubuso wakwilu nilinso lyonke kuzamba kusohelwa mulyangalilo niwina menso obele. (Geenna g1067)

And if your eye offend you, pluck it out, and cast it from you: it is better for you to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire. (Geenna g1067)

10 Ubone kuti kanzi unyansilizi zumwi waba bahwile. Nimiwambila kuti mwiwulu mangeloi abo inako yonse a lolete habusu bubaTayo bena kwiwulu.

Take heed that you despise not one of these little ones; for I say to you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.

11 Kakuti mwana muntu a vakezi kukuhaza cizovete.

For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.

12 Muhupula nzi? Muntu wina imbelele zicita mwanda, cikwazoba hateni yonke, ketico siya zimwi zicita makumi acita iyanza ni zone zibaka zama luundu ni kukagana imwiina yazoba?

How think you? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, does he not leave the ninety and nine, and goes into the mountains, and seeks that which is gone astray?

13 mi haiwana, ikumbya ni miwambila, kasangalala cayo kuhita izo zina makumi a cita iyanza ni toone ni yanza ni toone zisana za zooba.

And if so be that he find it, truly I say to you, he rejoices more of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray.

14 Mwinzila iswana kahena kusuna kwe Tayo wina kwiwulu kuti imwina kazenini i zenengehe.

Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.

15 Haiba mukwako wakufosekeza, yende, mu tondeze mulandu wakwe mukati kaako naye. Haiba naa kutekeleza ciwa muwola mwaako.

Moreover if your brother shall trespass against you, go and tell him his fault between you and him alone: if he shall hear you, you have gained your brother.

16 Kono haiba nasateeki kwako, uhinde ipaki imwina kapa zobele zimwi, njo kuti tuholo twabantu bobeele nandi botaatwe kuba ipaki lenzwi ni inzwi.

But if he will not hear you, then take with you one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.

17 Linu haiba na kaana kutekeleza kubali, wambe i ndaba Kwi nkeleke. Haiba naakana kuzuwa kwi nkeleke, muhinde sina mulicaba ni mutelisi.

And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it to the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be to you as an heathen man and a publican.

18 Chabusakusima ni kuwambila, chonse chintu chisuminwe hansi ni kwiwulu chisuminwe. Chonse chisumuninwe hansi ni kwiwulu kachisumununwe.

Truly I say to you, Whatever you shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatever you shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

19 Kwekeza henzo nimiwambila kuti, haiba mububeli bwenu muzuminzene hansi kuamana ni chimwi ni chimwi chonse chimukumbila, chintu ni chintu chibakumbila, kabachitendelwe ne Tayo wina kwiwulu.

Again I say to you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.

20 Mukuti konse kwina bobele kapa botatwe bakopene hamwina mwizina lyangu, ime kanibe mukati kabo.”

For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the middle of them.

21 Linu Pitorosi chabuza Jesu, “Simwine, tongai mwaangu twa wola kuni fosekeza mu kuti nimu swalele? Kwanda twina iyanza nito beele?”

Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?

22 Jesu na muti, “kaniku wambili twe iyanza ni to beele, kono makumi eyanza ni obeele makumi. hape.

Jesus says to him, I say not to you, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.

23 Cheyo inzila ipuso yekwiwulu ibambanywa ni simwine zumwi yaba sake namanise chikoloti ni muhikana kwe.

Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened to a certain king, which would take account of his servants.

24 Habati batangise za kushiamisa, muhikana umwina abaletwa kwali yabali kumukolota italenta zichita zikiti zina ikumi.

And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought to him, which owed him ten thousand talents.

25 Kono ibaka lakuti kanabena mwawola kuitabila, mfumwakwe chalaela kuti awuzwe, hamwina ni mwihyabwe ni bahwile ni zonse zabena naze, ibaka le ntifo i tendwe.

But for as much as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.

26 Linu muhikana chawila hansi, ni kukubama habusu bwakwe, mi nati, 'Mfumwangu, munifwile inse, mi kanikulihe zonse.'

The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay you all.

27 Chobulyo mfumu wamuhikana, kakuli ababi ni nse, abamulukululi nikuswalela chikoloti chakwe.

Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt.

28 Muhikana uzo na yenda kunze mi naka wana ba mwaakwe, ya bali kumu kolota ikumi lwa mali na mu fwañata. Ni kumu kwatila mumumino, mi nati, 'ni life co kolota.'

But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellow servants, which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that you owe.

29 Kono mwaakwe wo mutanga na wila hansi ni kumu kumbila, nati, 'U ni kwatile, mi munikulihe.'

And his fellow servant fell down at his feet, and sought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay you all.

30 Linu muhikana wa matangizo nakana. Kwanda bulyo, nayenda ni kumusohela mwi ntolongo, kusikila hete namulihe zonse zo kolota.

And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt.

31 Linu ba mwi batanga haba boona cibatendahali, baba bengi maswe. Nikwiza kuwambila mfumwe ziba chitahali.

So when his fellow servants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told to their lord all that was done.

32 Linu ifumwe wamuhikana na musumpa, namuti, 'iwe mutanga yo fosaheele, ni baku wondeli mulandu wako kakuli ubani kumbili.

Then his lord, after that he had called him, said to him, O you wicked servant, I forgave you all that debt, because you desired me:

33 Kete no babi ni nse nawe kwa mwaako, ubu muni ba ku kwatili nawe?'

Should not you also have had compassion on your fellow servant, even as I had pity on you?

34 Simwine wakwe nabenga mi namuha mu mayanza aba nyandisi kusikila hete namane kuliha zonse za mukolwete.

And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due to him.

35 Njekuti Tayo wakuwulu naye mwa tende mu kuswana, haiba zumwi ni zumwi wenu kate awasalele mwaakwe mwi nkulo.”

So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also to you, if you from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.
