Matayo 12
1 Na tango wana, Yesu alekaki kati na bilanga ya ble na mokolo ya Saba. Lokola bayekoli na Ye bakomaki na nzala, babandaki kobuka ble mpe kolia yango.
At that time, Jesus went on the Sabbath day through the grain fields. His disciples were hungry and began to pluck heads of grain and to eat.
2 Tango Bafarizeo bamonaki bongo, balobaki na Yesu: — Tala bayekoli na Yo! Bazali kosala likambo oyo epekisami kosalema na mokolo ya Saba.
But the Pharisees, when they saw it, said to him, “Behold, your disciples do what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath.”
3 Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Botanga nanu te makambo oyo Davidi asalaki tango ye elongo na baninga na ye bazalaki na nzala,
But he said to them, “Haven’t you read what David did when he was hungry, and those who were with him:
4 ndenge nini akotaki kati na Ndako ya Nzambe; mpe, ye elongo na bato na ye, baliaki mapa oyo ebulisama; nzokande, ezala ye to bato na ye, moko te azalaki na ndingisa ya kolia yango; kaka Banganga-Nzambe nde bazalaki na ndingisa ya kolia yango?
how he entered into God’s house and ate the show bread, which was not lawful for him to eat, nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests?
5 Botikala mpe nanu kotanga te kati na Mobeko ete, na mokolo ya Saba, Banganga-Nzambe oyo basalaka kati na Tempelo babukaka mobeko ya Saba, kasi bakweyaka na mbeba te mpo na yango?
Or have you not read in the law that on the Sabbath day the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath and are guiltless?
6 Nzokande, Ngai, nazali koloba na bino ete ezali awa na moto moko oyo azali monene koleka Tempelo!
But I tell you that one greater than the temple is here.
7 Ah soki bososolaki ndimbola ya maloba oyo: « Nasepelaka na motema ya boboto koleka mbeka, » bokokaki kopamela te bato oyo mpo ete basali mabe te!
But if you had known what this means, ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’ you wouldn’t have condemned the guiltless.
8 Pamba te Mwana na Moto azali Mokonzi ya mokolo ya Saba.
For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.”
9 Sima na Yesu kolongwa na esika yango, akendeki na ndako na bango ya mayangani
He departed from there and went into their synagogue.
10 epai wapi ezalaki na moto moko akufa loboko. Bafarizeo batunaki Yesu: — Boni, mibeko epesa nzela ya kobikisa bato na mokolo ya Saba? Batunaki Ye bongo, pamba te bazalaki koluka likambo mpo na kofunda Ye.
And behold, there was a man with a withered hand. They asked him, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath day?” so that they might accuse him.
11 Kasi Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Nani kati na bino, soki azali kaka na meme moko, mpe meme yango ekweyi kati na libulu, akokita te kati na libulu, na mokolo ya Saba, mpo na kobimisa yango?
He said to them, “What man is there amongst you who has one sheep, and if this one falls into a pit on the Sabbath day, won’t he grab on to it and lift it out?
12 Nzokande, moto azali na motuya koleka meme! Boye, kosala bolamu na mokolo ya Saba endimama na mobeko.
Of how much more value then is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath day.”
13 Bongo, alobaki na moto yango: — Sembola loboko na yo. Moto yango asembolaki loboko na ye, mpe loboko yango ebongaki, ekomaki malamu lokola loboko mosusu.
Then he told the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out; and it was restored whole, just like the other.
14 Bafarizeo babimaki mpe bakabolaki makanisi kati na bango mpo na koluka nzela ya kobomisa Yesu.
But the Pharisees went out and conspired against him, how they might destroy him.
15 Wana Yesu asosolaki ete basali mabongisi ya koboma Ye, alongwaki na esika yango. Bato ebele balandaki Ye, mpe abikisaki babeli nyonso.
Jesus, perceiving that, withdrew from there. Great multitudes followed him; and he healed them all,
16 Kasi apekisaki bango kobeta ata lisolo na tina na Ye.
and commanded them that they should not make him known,
17 Asalaki bongo mpo ete maloba ya mosakoli Ezayi ekokisama:
that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
18 « Tala mosali na Ngai, oyo naponi; molingami na Ngai, mosali oyo nalingaka mingi, oyo asalaka esengo na Ngai. Nakopesa Ye Molimo na Ngai, mpe akosakola bosembo epai ya bikolo ya bapaya.
“Behold, my servant whom I have chosen, my beloved in whom my soul is well pleased. I will put my Spirit on him. He will proclaim justice to the nations.
19 Akoswana te mpe akoganga te, bakoyoka mongongo na Ye te na babalabala.
He will not strive, nor shout, neither will anyone hear his voice in the streets.
20 Akobuka te mwa nzete ya kolemba oyo egumbama mpe akoboma te mwinda oyo elingi kokufa kino akosala ete bosembo elonga
He won’t break a bruised reed. He won’t quench a smoking flax, until he leads justice to victory.
21 mpe bikolo nyonso ya bapaya etia elikya na Kombo na Ye. »
In his name, the nations will hope.”
22 Bongo bamemelaki Yesu moto moko oyo azalaki na se ya bokonzi ya molimo mabe, azalaki mokufi miso mpe azalaki koloba te. Yesu abikisaki ye; boye moto oyo azalaki koloba te akomaki koloba mpe komona.
Then one possessed by a demon, blind and mute, was brought to him; and he healed him, so that the blind and mute man both spoke and saw.
23 Bato nyonso bakamwaki mpe bazalaki koloba: — Boni, moto oyo azali mwana ya Davidi te?
All the multitudes were amazed, and said, “Can this be the son of David?”
24 Kasi tango Bafarizeo bayokaki maloba oyo ezalaki kolobama na tina na Yesu, balobaki: — Moto oyo azali kobengana milimo mabe na nguya ya Belizebule, mokonzi ya milimo mabe.
But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, “This man does not cast out demons except by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons.”
25 Lokola Yesu asosolaki makanisi na bango, alobaki na bango: — Bokonzi nyonso oyo bavandi na yango bakomi kobunda bango na bango ekobebisama; engumba nyonso to ndako nyonso oyo bato na yango bazali lisusu na bomoko te ekowumela te.
Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.
26 Soki Satana abengani Satana, wana akomi nde komibundisa ye moko; bongo bokonzi na ye ekowumela ndenge nini?
If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?
27 Mpe soki, Ngai, nazali kobengana milimo mabe na nguya ya Belizebule, bayekoli na bino babenganaka yango na nguya ya nani? Yango wana, bayekoli na bino bakozala bango moko basambisi na bino.
If I by Beelzebul cast out demons, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.
28 Kasi soki ezali na nguya ya Molimo ya Nzambe nde Ngai nazali kobengana milimo mabe, wana Bokonzi ya Nzambe esili kokoma kino epai na bino.
But if I by the Spirit of God cast out demons, then God’s Kingdom has come upon you.
29 Ndenge nini moto akoki kokota na ndako ya elombe mpe koyiba biloko na ye ya ndako soki akangi nanu elombe yango te na basinga? Nzokande, soki akangi ye na basinga, wana akoki solo koyiba biloko nyonso oyo ezali kati na ndako na ye.
Or how can one enter into the house of the strong man and plunder his goods, unless he first bind the strong man? Then he will plunder his house.
30 Moto oyo azali elongo na Ngai te azali monguna na Ngai, mpe moto oyo asangisaka te elongo na Ngai apanzaka.
“He who is not with me is against me, and he who doesn’t gather with me, scatters.
31 Yango wana, nazali koloba na bino penza ya solo: lisumu nyonso mpe makambo mabe nyonso oyo bato bakoki koloba na tina na Nzambe ekolimbisama; kasi moto nyonso oyo akoloba mabe na tina na Molimo Mosantu akolimbisama te.
Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men.
32 Moto nyonso oyo akoloba mabe na tina na Mwana na Moto akolimbisama; kasi moto nyonso oyo akoloba mabe na tina na Molimo Mosantu akolimbisama te, ezala na bomoi na ye awa na se to na bomoi oyo ekoya. (aiōn g165)
Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age, or in that which is to come. (aiōn g165)
33 Nzete ya malamu ebotaka mpe bambuma ya malamu, nzete ya mabe ebotaka mpe bambuma ya mabe; pamba te nzete eyebanaka na mbuma na yango.
“Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree corrupt and its fruit corrupt; for the tree is known by its fruit.
34 Libota ya banyoka! Bokokoka ndenge nini koloba makambo ya malamu awa bozali bato mabe? Pamba te maloba ya moto etalisaka lolenge ya motema na ye:
You offspring of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.
35 moto malamu alobaka makambo ya malamu kowuta na motema malamu na ye, mpe moto mabe alobaka makambo ya mabe kowuta na motema mabe na ye.
The good man out of his good treasure brings out good things, and the evil man out of his evil treasure brings out evil things.
36 Nzokande, Ngai, nazali koloba na bino: na mokolo ya kosambisama, bato bakosamba mpo na maloba ezanga tina, oyo babimisaki.
I tell you that every idle word that men speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgement.
37 Pamba te ezali na nzela ya maloba na yo moko kaka nde bakolongisa yo to bakokweyisa yo.
For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”
38 Bongo ndambo ya balakisi ya Mobeko mpe Bafarizeo balobaki na Ye: — Moteyi, tolingi komona yo kosala elembo moko.
Then certain of the scribes and Pharisees answered, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from you.”
39 Yesu azongisaki: — Oh bato ya ekeke oyo! Bazali bato mabe mpe bazangi botosi na miso ya Nzambe, kasi bazali mpe kosenga elembo! Bakopesamela elembo mosusu te longola kaka elembo ya mosakoli Yona.
But he answered them, “An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, but no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah the prophet.
40 Pamba te, ndenge Yona avandaki kati na libumu ya mbisi monene mikolo misato mpe babutu misato, ndenge wana mpe Mwana na Moto akosala mikolo misato mpe babutu misato na se ya mabele.
For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the huge fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
41 Na mokolo ya kosambisama, bato ya Ninive bakotelema mpe bakokatela bato ya ekeke oyo etumbu, pamba te babongolaki mitema na bango tango bayokaki mateya ya Yona; nzokande, ezali awa na Moto oyo aleki Yona.
The men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgement with this generation and will condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, someone greater than Jonah is here.
42 Na mokolo ya kosambisama, mwasi mokonzi ya sude akotelema elongo na bato ya ekeke oyo mpe akokatela bango etumbu, pamba te awutaki mosika, na suka ya mokili, mpe ayaki mpo na koyoka maloba ya bwanya ya Salomo; nzokande, ezali awa na Moto oyo aleki Salomo.
The Queen of the South will rise up in the judgement with this generation and will condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, someone greater than Solomon is here.
43 Soki molimo mabe ebimi kati na moto, ekendaka koyengayenga na bisika ekawuka mpo na koluka esika ya kopema. Kasi soki ezwi esika yango te,
“When an unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he passes through waterless places seeking rest, and doesn’t find it.
44 emilobelaka: « Eleki malamu mpo na ngai kozonga na ndako oyo natikaki. » Tango molimo mabe yango ezongaka ekutaka ndako yango polele, bakombola mpe babongisa malamu,
Then he says, ‘I will return into my house from which I came;’ and when he has come back, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order.
45 ekokende lisusu kozwa milimo mosusu sambo oyo eleki yango na mabe, mpe ekoya elongo na yango mpo na kokota na elulu mpe kovanda kuna. Boye, bomoi ya moto yango ekokoma lisusu mabe koleka ndenge ezalaki liboso. Ekozala mpe bongo mpo na bato mabe ya ekeke oyo.
Then he goes and takes with himself seven other spirits more evil than he is, and they enter in and dwell there. The last state of that man becomes worse than the first. Even so will it be also to this evil generation.”
46 Wana Yesu azalaki nanu koloba na bato, mama na Ye mpe bandeko na Ye ya mibali batelemaki libanda mpe bazalaki koluka kosolola na Ye.
While he was yet speaking to the multitudes, behold, his mother and his brothers stood outside, seeking to speak to him.
47 Bongo moto moko ayebisaki Yesu: — Mama mpe bandeko na yo ya mibali batelemi libanda, bazali na posa ya kosolola na yo.
One said to him, “Behold, your mother and your brothers stand outside, seeking to speak to you.”
48 Kasi Yesu azongiselaki ye: — Nani mama na Ngai, mpe banani bandeko na Ngai?
But he answered him who spoke to him, “Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?”
49 Bongo Yesu atalisaki loboko na Ye na ngambo ya bayekoli na Ye mpe alobaki: — Mama na Ngai mpe bandeko na Ngai, bango oyo!
He stretched out his hand towards his disciples, and said, “Behold, my mother and my brothers!
50 Pamba te moto nyonso oyo asalaka mokano ya Tata na Ngai, oyo azali kati na Likolo, ye nde azali ndeko na Ngai ya mobali, ndeko na Ngai ya mwasi mpe mama na Ngai.
For whoever does the will of my Father who is in heaven, he is my brother, and sister, and mother.”
