< Makko 11 >

1 Awo Yesu n’abayigirizwa be, bwe baali basemberedde Besufaage ne Besaniya ebiriraanye Yerusaalemi, nga batuuse ku lusozi olwa Zeyituuni, Yesu n’atuma abayigirizwa be babiri babasooke mu maaso.
And when they draw near to Jerusalem, to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sends two of his disciples,
2 N’abalagira nti, “Mugende mu kyalo ekituli mu maaso, bwe munaaba mwakakituukamu mujja kulaba omwana gw’endogoyi oguteebagalwangako nga gusibiddwa awo. Mugusumulule mugundeetere wano.
and says to them, Go into the village which is over against you, and immediately on entering into it ye will find a colt tied, upon which no [child] of man has ever sat: loose it and lead it [here].
3 Era omuntu yenna bw’ababuuza gye mugutwala, mumuddamu nti, ‘Mukama waffe y’agwetaaga, era tujja kugukomyawo mangu.’”
And if any one say to you, Why do ye this? say, The Lord has need of it; and straightway he sends it hither.
4 Abaatumibwa ne bagenda, ne balaba omwana gw’endogoyi nga guyimiridde ku luguudo, naye nga gusibiddwa ku muguwa wabweru w’ennyumba. Bwe baali bagusumulula,
And they departed, and found a colt bound to the door without at the crossway, and they loose him.
5 abamu ku bantu abaali bayimiridde awo ne bababuuza nti, “Abange, omwana gw’endogoyi, musumulula gwa ki?”
And some of those who stood there said to them, What are ye doing, loosing the colt?
6 Abayigirizwa ne baddamu nga Yesu bwe yabagamba, ne balyoka babakkiriza okugutwala.
And they said to them as Jesus had commanded. And they let them [do it].
7 Omwana gw’endogoyi ne baguleetera Yesu. Abayigirizwa be ne baddira ebyambalo byabwe ne babyaliira ku mugongo gwayo, Yesu n’agwebagala.
And they led the colt to Jesus, and cast their clothes upon it, and he sat on it;
8 Awo abantu bangi abaali mu kibiina ne baaliira engoye zaabwe mu luguudo mwe yali agenda okuyita, abalala ne bamenya amatabi g’emiti mu nnimiro ezaali okumpi, nago ne bagaalira mu luguudo.
and many strewed their clothes on the way, and others cut down branches from the trees [and went on strewing them on the way].
9 Abaali mu maaso ge n’abaali emabega we, bonna ne baleekaanira waggulu nti: “Ozaana!” “Atenderezebwe oyo ajja mu linnya lya Mukama!”
And those going on before and those following cried out, Hosanna! blessed [be] he that comes in [the] Lord's name.
10 “Atenderezebwe olw’okukomyawo obwakabaka bwa jjajjaffe Dawudi n’okubuwa omukisa!” “Ozaana! Ayi ali waggulu ennyo!”
Blessed [be] the coming kingdom of our father David. Hosanna in the highest!
11 Awo Yesu n’atuuka mu Yerusaalemi, n’ayingira mu Yeekaalu. N’atunula, ne yeetoolooza amaaso wonna, naye obudde bwali buyise, n’afuluma n’agenda e Besaniya n’abayigirizwa be ekkumi n’ababiri.
And he entered into Jerusalem and into the temple; and having looked round on all things, the hour being already late, he went out to Bethany with the twelve.
12 Enkeera bwe baali bava e Besaniya, Yesu n’alumwa enjala.
And on the morrow, when they were gone out of Bethany, he hungered.
13 N’alengera omutiini, nga guddugazza bulungi amalagala, n’agendayo alabe obanga anaasangako ebibala. Yagenda okugutuukako nga kuliko makoola meereere, kubanga si kye kyali ekiseera kyagwo okubaako ebibala.
And seeing from afar off a fig-tree which had leaves, he came, if perhaps he might find something on it. And having come up to it he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the time of figs.
14 Awo Yesu n’agamba omuti nti, “Omuntu yenna alemenga okuddayo okulya ekibala kyo!” Abayigirizwa be ne bamuwulira ng’akyogera. (aiōn g165)
And answering he said to it, Let no one eat fruit of thee any more for ever. And his disciples heard [it]. (aiōn g165)
15 Bwe baatuuka mu Yerusaalemi n’ayingira mu Yeekaalu, n’atandika okugobamu abaali batundiramu n’abaali baguliramu, n’avuunika emmeeza z’abaali bawaanyisa ensimbi, n’avuunika n’entebe z’abatunzi b’amayiba.
And they come to Jerusalem, and entering into the temple, he began to cast out those who sold and who bought in the temple, and he overthrew the tables of the moneychangers and the seats of the dove-sellers,
16 Era n’ataganya muntu kuyisa kintu kyonna.
and suffered not that any one should carry any package through the temple.
17 N’abayigiriza ng’agamba nti, “Tekyawandiikabwa nti, ‘Ennyumba yange eneebanga nnyumba ya kusabiramu amawanga?’ Naye mmwe mugifudde mpuku y’abanyazi.”
And he taught saying to them, Is it not written, My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations? but ye have made it a den of robbers.
18 Bakabona abakulu n’abannyonnyozi b’amateeka bwe baakiwulira, ne batandika okusala amagezi balabe bwe bayinza okumuzikiriza. Baali bamutya engeri ekibiina kyonna bwe kyali kyewuunya okuyigiriza kwe.
And the chief priests and the scribes heard [it], and they sought how they might destroy him; for they feared him, because all the crowd were astonished at his doctrine.
19 Obudde bwe bwawungeera Yesu n’abayigirizwa be ne bafuluma mu kibuga.
And when it was evening he went forth without the city.
20 Awo enkeera mu makya abayigirizwa be ne balaba omuti omutiini Yesu gwe yakolimira nga gukaze okuviira ddala ku kikolo!
And passing by early in the morning they saw the fig-tree dried up from the roots.
21 Peetero n’ajjukira n’agamba Yesu nti, “Omuyigiriza, laba omutiini gwe wakolimira gukaze!”
And Peter, remembering [what Jesus had said], says to him, Rabbi, see, the fig-tree which thou cursedst is dried up.
22 Yesu n’agamba abayigirizwa be nti, “Mukkiririze mu Katonda.
And Jesus answering says to them, Have faith in God.
23 Ddala ddala mbagamba nti buli aligamba olusozi luno nti, ‘Siguka ogwe mu nnyanja,’ n’atabuusabuusa mu mutima gwe, naye n’aba n’okukkiriza, ky’ayogedde kirituukirira.
Verily I say to you, that whosoever shall say to this mountain, Be thou taken away and cast into the sea, and shall not doubt in his heart, but believe that what he says takes place, whatever he shall say shall come to pass for him.
24 Noolwekyo mbagamba nti buli kye munaasabanga, mukkirize nti mukiweereddwa, era kinaabanga bwe kityo gye muli.
For this reason I say to you, All things whatsoever ye pray for and ask, believe that ye receive it, and it shall come to pass for you.
25 Bwe mubanga mugenda okusaba musonyiwenga omuntu yenna gwe mulinako ensonga, ne Kitammwe ali mu ggulu alyoke abasonyiwe ebyonoono byammwe.
And when ye stand praying, forgive if ye have anything against any one, that your Father also who is in the heavens may forgive you your offences.
26 Naye bwe mutaasonyiwenga, ne Kitammwe ali mu ggulu talibasonyiwa byonoono byammwe.”
But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father who is in the heavens forgive your offences.
27 Yesu n’abayigirizwa be bwe baakomawo mu Yerusaalemi yali atambulatambula mu Yeekaalu, bakabona abakulu n’abannyonnyozi b’amateeka n’abakulembeze b’Abayudaaya ne bajja gy’ali
And they come again to Jerusalem. And as he walked about in the temple, the chief priests and the scribes and the elders come to him,
28 ne bamubuuza nti, “Buyinza ki obukukoza bino? Era ani yakuwa obuyinza okukola bino?”
and they say to him, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority, that thou shouldest do these things?
29 Naye Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Bwe munaamala okunziramu ekibuuzo kyange kimu, nange n’ababuulira eyampa obuyinza obwo!
And Jesus answering said to them, I also will ask you one thing, and answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things:
30 Okubatiza kwa Yokaana kwava mu ggulu oba kwava eri bantu? Munziremu!”
The baptism of John, was it of heaven, or of men? answer me.
31 Ne bakubaganya ebirowoozo bokka na bokka nti, “Bwe tuddamu nti, ‘Kwava mu ggulu,’ ajja kutubuuza nti, ‘Kale, lwaki temwamukkiriza?’
And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we should say, Of heaven, he will say, Why [then] have ye not believed him?
32 Naye, ate bwe tuddamu nti, ‘Kwava eri bantu.’” Baali batya ekibiina ky’abantu. Kubanga buli muntu yalowooza Yokaana okuba nnabbi.
but should we say, Of men — they feared the people; for all held of John that he was truly a prophet.
33 Ne baddamu Yesu nti, “Tetumanyi.” Awo Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Nange sijja kubabuulira obuyinza obunkoza ebintu ebyo gye mbuggya.”
And they answering say to Jesus, We do not know. And Jesus [answering] says to them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
