Matayo 10
1 Awo Yesu n’ayita abayigirizwa be ekkumi n’ababiri, ne bajja gy’ali n’abawa obuyinza okugobanga baddayimooni, n’okuwonyanga buli ndwadde n’okukozimba ebya buli ngeri.
And he got together his twelve disciples and gave them the power of driving out unclean spirits, and of making well all sorts of disease and pain.
2 Amannya g’abayigirizwa ekkumi n’ababiri ge gano: Simooni, ayitibwa Peetero; ne Andereya, muganda wa Peetero; ne Yakobo, omwana wa Zebbedaayo; ne Yokaana, muganda wa Yakobo;
Now the names of the twelve are these: The first, Simon, who is named Peter, and Andrew, his brother; James, the son of Zebedee, and John, his brother;
3 Firipo; ne Battolomaayo; ne Tomasi; ne Matayo, omusolooza w’omusolo; ne Yakobo, omwana wa Alufaayo; ne Saddayo;
Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew, the tax-farmer; James, the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;
4 ne Simooni, Omukananaayo; ne Yuda Isukalyoti, eyalya mu Yesu olukwe.
Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot, who was false to him.
5 Abo ekkumi n’ababiri Yesu n’abatuma ng’abalagira nti: “Temugenda eri bannamawanga wadde mu kibuga ky’Abasamaliya.
These twelve Jesus sent out and gave them orders, saying, Do not go among the Gentiles, or into any town of Samaria,
6 Naye mugende eri abaana ba Isirayiri, endiga za Katonda ezaabula.
But go to the wandering sheep of the house of Israel,
7 Mugende mubabuulire nti, ‘Obwakabaka obw’omu ggulu busembedde.’
And, on your way, say, The kingdom of heaven is near.
8 Muwonye abalwadde, muzuukize abafu, mulongoose abagenge, era mugobe ne baddayimooni. Muweereddwa buwa nammwe muwenga buwa.
Make well those who are ill, give life to the dead, make lepers clean, send evil spirits out of men; freely it has been given to you, freely give.
9 “Temubanga na zaabu oba ffeeza wadde ekikomo mu nkoba zammwe,
Take no gold or silver or copper in your pockets;
10 wadde ensawo ey’oku mugongo, wadde essaati ebbiri, wadde omugogo gw’engatto omulala, wadde omuggo. Kubanga omukozi asaanira okuweebwa eby’okumuyamba.
Take no bag for your journey and do not take two coats or shoes or a stick: for the workman has a right to his food.
11 Buli kibuga oba kyalo mwe mutuukanga, munoonyengamu amaka g’omuntu asaanidde, musulenga omwo okutuusa lwe mulivaayo.
And into whatever town or small place you go, make search there for someone who is respected, and make his house your resting-place till you go away.
12 Bwe muyingiranga mu nnyumba mubeeyanjulire, amaka ago mugalagenga okwagala kwammwe.
And when you go in, say, May peace be on this house.
13 Amaka ago bwe gabanga ag’abantu abasaanidde, emirembe gyammwe ginaabeeranga ku bo, naye bwe gatabanga bwe gatyo emirembe gyammwe ginaabaddiranga.
And if the house is good enough, let your peace come on it: but if not, let your peace come back to you.
14 Buli atabasembezenga wadde okuwuliriza ebigambo byammwe, bwe mubanga muva mu kibuga ekyo oba mu nnyumba eyo, mukunkumulanga enfuufuey’oku bigere byammwe.
And whoever will not take you in, or give ear to your words, when you go out from that house or that town, put off its dust from your feet.
15 Ddala ddala mbagamba nti ensi ya Sodomu ne Ggomola ziriweebwa ekibonerezo ku lunaku olw’okusalirako omusango ekirigumiikirizika okukira ekibuga ekyo oba amaka ago.
Truly I say to you, It will be better for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of God's judging than for that town.
16 “Laba mbatuma ng’endiga mu misege. Noolwekyo mubeere bagezigezi ng’emisota, era abataliiko kya kunenyezebwa ng’amayiba.
See, I send you out as sheep among wolves. Be then as wise as snakes, and as gentle as doves.
17 Mwekuume abantu! Kubanga balibawaayo eri enkiiko z’Abakadde, ne mu makuŋŋaaniro gaabwe, ne babakuba emigo.
But be on the watch against men: for they will give you up to the Sanhedrins, and in their Synagogues they will give you blows;
18 Mulitwalibwa mu maaso ga bagavana ne bakabaka ku lwange, okuba abajulirwa eri bo n’abannaggwanga.
And you will come before rulers and kings because of me, for a witness to them and to the Gentiles.
19 Bwe muweebwangayo, temweraliikiriranga kye munaawoza, kubanga kinaabaweebwanga mu kiseera ekyo.
But when you are given up into their hands, do not be troubled about what to say or how to say it: for in that hour what you are to say will be given to you;
20 Kubanga si mmwe mugenda okwogera wabula Omwoyo wa Kitammwe y’alyogerera mu mmwe!
Because it is not you who say the words, but the Spirit of your Father in you.
21 “Owooluganda aliwaayo muganda we okuttibwa era n’abazadde baliwaayo abaana baabwe okuttibwa. Abaana nabo balyefuukira bazadde baabwe ne babatta.
And brother will give up brother to death, and the father his child: and children will go against their fathers and mothers, and put them to death.
22 Mulikyayibwa abantu bonna olw’erinnya lyange. Naye oyo aligumiikiriza okutuuka ku nkomerero alirokolebwa.
And you will be hated by all men because of my name: but he who is strong to the end will have salvation.
23 Bwe babayigganyanga mu kibuga ekimu muddukirenga mu kirala! Ddala ddala mbagamba nti muliba temunnabuna bibuga bya Isirayiri, Omwana w’Omuntu n’ajja.
But when they are cruel to you in one town, go in flight to another: for truly, I say to you, You will not have gone through the towns of Israel before the Son of man comes.
24 “Omuyigirizwa tasinga amusomesa, so n’omuddu tasinga mukama we.
A disciple is not greater than his master, or a servant than his lord.
25 Kirungi omuyigirizwa okuba ng’omusomesa we, n’omuddu okuba nga mukama we. Obanga nnannyinimu ayitibwa Beeruzebuli, tekisingawo nnyo ku b’omu nju ye.
It is enough for the disciple that he may be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have given the name Beelzebub to the master of the house, how much more to those of his house!
26 “Noolwekyo temubatyanga. Teri kyakisibwa ekitalimanyibwa, era tewali kyakwekebwa ekitalizuulibwa.
Have, then, no fear of them: because nothing is covered which will not come to light, or secret which will not be made clear.
27 Buli kye mbabuulira mu kizikiza mukyogereranga mu musana, na buli kye mbagamba mu kaama, nakyo mukyasanguzanga waggulu ku nnyumba.
What I say to you in the dark, say in the light: and what comes to your ear secretly, say publicly from the house-tops.
28 Era temubatyanga abo abatta omubiri kubanga tebasobola kutta mwoyo! Naye mutyenga oyo yekka, ayinza okuzikiriza byombi omwoyo n’omubiri mu ggeyeena. (Geenna g1067)
And have no fear of those who put to death the body, but are not able to put to death the soul. But have fear of him who has power to give soul and body to destruction in hell. (Geenna g1067)
29 Enkazaluggya ebbiri tezigula sente emu? Naye tewali n’emu ku zo eyinza okuttibwa nga Kitammwe tamanyi.
Are not sparrows two a farthing? and not one of them comes to an end without your Father:
30 Era buli luviiri oluli ku mitwe gyammwe lwabalibwa.
But the hairs of your head are all numbered.
31 Kale temweraliikiriranga kubanga mmwe muli ba muwendo munene eri Kitammwe okusinga enkazaluggya ennyingi.
Then have no fear; you are of more value than a flock of sparrows.
32 “Buli muntu alinjatulira mu maaso g’abantu, nange ndimwatulira mu maaso ga Kitange ali mu ggulu.
To everyone, then, who gives witness to me before men, I will give witness before my Father in heaven.
33 Na buli muntu alinneegaanira mu maaso g’abantu, nange ndimwegaanira mu maaso ga Kitange ali mu ggulu.
But if anyone says before men that he has no knowledge of me, I will say that I have no knowledge of him before my Father in heaven.
34 “Temulowooza nti najja okuleeta emirembe ku nsi! Sajja kuleeta mirembe wabula ekitala.
Do not have the thought that I have come to send peace on the earth; I came not to send peace but a sword.
35 Kubanga najja okwawukanya “‘omwana owoobulenzi ne kitaawe, n’omwana owoobuwala ne nnyina n’okwawukanya muka mwana ne nnyazaala we.
For I have come to put a man against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law:
36 Abalabe b’omuntu banaabanga ba mu nju ye.’
And a man will be hated by those of his house.
37 “Oyo ayagala kitaawe oba nnyina okusinga Nze tansaanira, n’oyo ayagala mutabani we oba muwala we okusinga Nze naye tansaanira.
He who has more love for his father or mother than for me is not good enough for me; he who has more love for son or daughter than for me is not good enough for me.
38 N’oyo ateetikkenga musaalaba gwe n’angoberera tansaanira.
And he who does not take his cross and come after me is not good enough for me.
39 Omuntu ayagala ennyo obulamu bwe alibufiirwa, naye alifiirwa obulamu bwe ku lwange, alibulokola.
He who has the desire to keep his life will have it taken from him, and he who gives up his life because of me will have it given back to him.
40 “Buli abasembeza, aba asembezezza Nze, ate asembeza Nze aba asembezezza oyo eyantuma.
He who gives honour to you gives honour to me; and he who gives honour to me gives honour to him who sent me.
41 Oyo asembeza nnabbi mu linnya lya nnabbi, alifuna empeera y’emu nga nnabbi. Era buli anaasembezanga omuntu omutuukirivu mu linnya ly’omuntu omutuukirivu, alifuna empeera y’emu ng’ey’omutuukirivu.
He who gives honour to a prophet, in the name of a prophet, will be given a prophet's reward; and he who gives honour to an upright man, in the name of an upright man, will be given an upright man's reward.
42 Ddala ddala mbagamba nti buli aliwa omu ku baana bano abato egiraasi y’amazzi agannyogoga olw’erinnya ly’omuyigiriza talirema kuweebwa mpeera ye.”
And whoever gives to one of these little ones a cup of cold water only, in the name of a disciple, truly I say to you, he will not go without his reward.
