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 having called to [him] his twelve disciples, he gave them power over unclean spirits, so that they should cast them out, and heal every disease and every bodily weakness.
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 apostles are these: first, Simon, who was called 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-gatherer; James the [son] of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, who was surnamed Thaddaeus;
4 ne Simooni, Omukananaayo; ne Yuda Isukalyoti, eyalya mu Yesu olukwe.
Simon the Cananaean, and Judas the Iscariote, who also delivered him up.
5 Abo ekkumi n’ababiri Yesu n’abatuma ng’abalagira nti: “Temugenda eri bannamawanga wadde mu kibuga ky’Abasamaliya.
These twelve Jesus sent out when he had charged them, saying, Go not off into [the] way of [the] nations, and into a city of Samaritans enter ye not;
6 Naye mugende eri abaana ba Isirayiri, endiga za Katonda ezaabula.
but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
7 Mugende mubabuulire nti, ‘Obwakabaka obw’omu ggulu busembedde.’
And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of the heavens has drawn nigh.
8 Muwonye abalwadde, muzuukize abafu, mulongoose abagenge, era mugobe ne baddayimooni. Muweereddwa buwa nammwe muwenga buwa.
Heal [the] infirm, [raise the dead], cleanse lepers, cast out demons: ye have received gratuitously, give gratuitously.
9 “Temubanga na zaabu oba ffeeza wadde ekikomo mu nkoba zammwe,
Do not provide yourselves with gold, or silver, or brass, for your belts,
10 wadde ensawo ey’oku mugongo, wadde essaati ebbiri, wadde omugogo gw’engatto omulala, wadde omuggo. Kubanga omukozi asaanira okuweebwa eby’okumuyamba.
nor scrip for the way, nor two body coats, nor sandals, nor a staff: for the workman is worthy of his nourishment.
11 Buli kibuga oba kyalo mwe mutuukanga, munoonyengamu amaka g’omuntu asaanidde, musulenga omwo okutuusa lwe mulivaayo.
But into whatsoever city or village ye enter, inquire who in it is worthy, and there remain till ye go forth.
12 Bwe muyingiranga mu nnyumba mubeeyanjulire, amaka ago mugalagenga okwagala kwammwe.
And as ye enter into a house salute it.
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 indeed be worthy, let your peace come upon it; but if it be not worthy, let your peace return 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 whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, as ye go forth out of that house or city, shake off the dust of 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.
Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in judgment-day than for that city.
16 “Laba mbatuma ng’endiga mu misege. Noolwekyo mubeere bagezigezi ng’emisota, era abataliiko kya kunenyezebwa ng’amayiba.
Behold, I send you as sheep in the midst of wolves; be therefore prudent as the serpents, and guileless as the doves.
17 Mwekuume abantu! Kubanga balibawaayo eri enkiiko z’Abakadde, ne mu makuŋŋaaniro gaabwe, ne babakuba emigo.
But beware of men; for they will deliver you up to sanhedrims, and scourge you in their synagogues;
18 Mulitwalibwa mu maaso ga bagavana ne bakabaka ku lwange, okuba abajulirwa eri bo n’abannaggwanga.
and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the nations.
19 Bwe muweebwangayo, temweraliikiriranga kye munaawoza, kubanga kinaabaweebwanga mu kiseera ekyo.
But when they deliver you up, be not careful how or what ye shall speak; for it shall be given to you in that hour what ye shall speak.
20 Kubanga si mmwe mugenda okwogera wabula Omwoyo wa Kitammwe y’alyogerera mu mmwe!
For ye are not the speakers, but the Spirit of your Father which speaks in you.
21 “Owooluganda aliwaayo muganda we okuttibwa era n’abazadde baliwaayo abaana baabwe okuttibwa. Abaana nabo balyefuukira bazadde baabwe ne babatta.
But brother shall deliver up brother to death, and father child; and children shall rise up against parents and shall put them to death;
22 Mulikyayibwa abantu bonna olw’erinnya lyange. Naye oyo aligumiikiriza okutuuka ku nkomerero alirokolebwa.
and ye shall be hated of all on account of my name. But he that has endured to [the] end, he shall be saved.
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 persecute you in this city, flee to the other; for verily I say to you, Ye shall not have completed the cities of Israel until the Son of man be come.
24 “Omuyigirizwa tasinga amusomesa, so n’omuddu tasinga mukama we.
The disciple is not above his teacher, nor the bondman above 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] sufficient for the disciple that he should become as his teacher, and the bondman as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more those of his household?
26 “Noolwekyo temubatyanga. Teri kyakisibwa ekitalimanyibwa, era tewali kyakwekebwa ekitalizuulibwa.
Fear them not therefore; for there is nothing covered which shall not be revealed, and secret which shall not be known.
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 darkness speak in the light, and what ye hear in the ear preach upon the houses.
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 be not afraid of those who kill the body, but cannot kill the soul; but fear rather him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. (Geenna g1067)
29 Enkazaluggya ebbiri tezigula sente emu? Naye tewali n’emu ku zo eyinza okuttibwa nga Kitammwe tamanyi.
Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall to the ground without your Father;
30 Era buli luviiri oluli ku mitwe gyammwe lwabalibwa.
but of you even the hairs of the head are all numbered.
31 Kale temweraliikiriranga kubanga mmwe muli ba muwendo munene eri Kitammwe okusinga enkazaluggya ennyingi.
Fear not therefore; ye are better than many sparrows.
32 “Buli muntu alinjatulira mu maaso g’abantu, nange ndimwatulira mu maaso ga Kitange ali mu ggulu.
Every one therefore who shall confess me before men, I also will confess him before my Father who is in [the] heavens.
33 Na buli muntu alinneegaanira mu maaso g’abantu, nange ndimwegaanira mu maaso ga Kitange ali mu ggulu.
But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father who is in [the] heavens.
34 “Temulowooza nti najja okuleeta emirembe ku nsi! Sajja kuleeta mirembe wabula ekitala.
Do not think that I have come to send peace upon the earth: I have not come 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 set a man at variance with his father, and the daughter with her mother, and the daughter-in-law with her mother-in-law;
36 Abalabe b’omuntu banaabanga ba mu nju ye.’
and they of his household [shall be] a man's enemies.
37 “Oyo ayagala kitaawe oba nnyina okusinga Nze tansaanira, n’oyo ayagala mutabani we oba muwala we okusinga Nze naye tansaanira.
He who loves father or mother above me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter above me is not worthy of me.
38 N’oyo ateetikkenga musaalaba gwe n’angoberera tansaanira.
And he who does not take up his cross and follow after me is not worthy of me.
39 Omuntu ayagala ennyo obulamu bwe alibufiirwa, naye alifiirwa obulamu bwe ku lwange, alibulokola.
He that finds his life shall lose it, and he who has lost his life for my sake shall find it.
40 “Buli abasembeza, aba asembezezza Nze, ate asembeza Nze aba asembezezza oyo eyantuma.
He that receives you receives me, and he that receives me receives him that 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 that receives a prophet in the name of a prophet, shall receive a prophet's reward; and he that receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man, shall receive a righteous 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 whosoever shall give to drink to one of these little ones a cup of cold [water] only, in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.
