Matayo 17
1 Oluvannyuma lw’ennaku mukaaga Yesu n’atwala Peetero, ne Yakobo ne Yokaana muganda we, n’abalinnyisa ku lusozi oluwanvu.
And after six days, Jesus took with him Peter and James and John his brother, and led them up into a high mountain apart:
2 N’afuusibwa nga balaba, amaaso ge ne gamasamasa ng’enjuba n’ebyambalo bye ne byeruka ne byakaayakana.
and he was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his clothing was white as the light.
3 Laba Musa ne Eriya ne balabika, ne boogera ne Yesu.
And behold, there appeared to them Moses and Elijah, talking with him.
4 Peetero n’agamba Yesu nti, “Mukama waffe, nga kya kitalo nnyo ffe okubeera wano! Bw’oba ng’osiimye, nzimbe wano ensiisira ssatu, emu yiyo endala ya Musa n’endala ya Eriya.”
And Peter answered and said to Jesus: Lord, it is good for us to be here; if thou wilt, let us make here three tents, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.
5 Bwe yali akyayogera ebyo ekire ekimasamasa ne kiva waggulu ne kibabuutikira eddoboozi ne liva mu kire ne ligamba nti, “Ono ye Mwana wange gwe njagala ennyo, era gwe nsanyukira ennyo. Mumuwulirenga.”
While he was yet speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them; and lo, a voice from the cloud, saying: This is my beloved Son, in whom I delight; hear him.
6 Abayigirizwa bwe baakiwulira ne bagwa wansi ne beevuunika nga batidde nnyo.
And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their faces, and were greatly afraid.
7 Yesu n’ajja gye bali n’abakwatako n’abagamba nti, “Mugolokoke temutya.”
And Jesus came and touched them, and said: Arise and be not afraid.
8 Bwe babbulula amaaso, baalabawo Yesu yekka!
And when they lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus.
9 Bwe baali baserengeta olusozi, Yesu n’abakuutira nti, “Ebyo bye mulabye temubibuulirako omuntu n’omu okutuusa Omwana w’Omuntu lw’alimala okuzuukira mu bafu.”
And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying: Tell the vision to no one, till the Son of man has risen from the dead.
10 Abayigirizwa ne bamubuuza nti, “Kale lwaki abannyonnyozi b’amateeka bagamba nti, Eriya kimugwanira okumala okujja?”
And his disciples asked him, saying: Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?
11 Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Weewaawo, Eriya alijja n’azzaawo ebintu byonna.
Jesus answered and said to them: Elijah, indeed, comes first, and he will restore all things.
12 Naye mbagamba nti, Eriya yajja dda, naye tebaamutegeera, era naye ne bamukola buli kye baayagala. Bw’atyo n’Omwana w’Omuntu anaatera okubonyaabonyezebwa.”
But I say to you, That Elijah has already come, and they did not recognize him, but did to him what they wished; so also shall the Son of man suffer at their hands.
13 Awo abayigirizwa be ne bategeera nti yali ayogera ku Yokaana Omubatiza.
Then, the disciples understood that he spoke to them of John the Immerser.
14 Awo bwe yatuuka awaali ekibiina, omusajja n’ajja gy’ali n’afukamira we yali, n’amugamba nti,
And when they had come to the multitude, there came to him a man who knelt to him,
15 “Mukama wange, ssaasira mutabani wange, kubanga mulwadde agwa ensimbu, era zimubonyaabonya nnyo kubanga emirundi mingi zimusuula mu muliro ne mu mazzi.
and said: Lord, have mercy on my son; for he is a lunatic, and suffers grievously; for he often falls into the fire, and often into the water.
16 Bwe namuleese eri abayigirizwa bo tebasobodde kumuwonya.”
And I brought him to thy disciples, and they were not able to cure him.
17 Yesu n’addamu nti, “Mmwe omulembe ogutalina kukkiriza omubi. Ndituusa ddi okubeera nammwe? Ndibagumiikiriza kutuusa ddi? Kale mumundeetere wano.”
Jesus answered and said: O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him hither to me.
18 Yesu n’aboggolera dayimooni, n’ava ku mulenzi, omulenzi n’awona mu kiseera ekyo.
And Jesus rebuked the demon, and he came out of him: and the child was cured from that hour.
19 Awo oluvannyuma abayigirizwa ne bajja eri Yesu mu kyama ne bamubuuza nti, “Lwaki ffe tetwasobodde kugoba dayimooni oyo?”
Then the disciples came to Jesus privately, and said: Why were we not able to cast him out?
20 Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Olw’okukkiriza kwammwe okutono. Kubanga ddala ddala mbagamba nti, bwe muba n’okukkiriza okufaanana ng’akaweke ka kaladaali, mwandiyinzizza okugamba olusozi luno nti, ‘Vvaawo wano,’ era ne luvaawo era tewandibaddewo kye mulemwa.
And Jesus said to them: Because of your unbelief. For verily I say to you, If you have faith like a grain of mustard-seed, you shall say to this mountain, Be removed from this place to that, and it shall be removed: and nothing shall be impossible for you.
21 Naye kyokka dayimooni ow’engeri eno tagobeka awatali kusaba na kusiiba.”
But this kind does not go out but by prayer and fasting.
22 Ne bakuŋŋaanira mu Ggaliraaya, Yesu n’abagamba nti, “Omwana w’Omuntu anaatera okuliibwamu olukwe aweebweyo mu mikono gy’abantu
And as they were making their journey in Galilee, Jesus said to them: The Son of man is about to be delivered into the hands of men;
23 abalimutta, kyokka ku lunaku olwokusatu alizuukizibwa.” Abayigirizwa be ne banakuwala nnyo.
and they will kill him, and on the third day he will be raised again. And they were very sad.
24 Bwe baatuuka e Kaperunawumu abasolooza b’omusolo gwa Yeekaalu babiri ne bajja eri Peetero ne bamubuuza nti, “Mukama wammwe tawa musolo?”
And when they had come into Capernaum, those who collected the didrachma came to Peter, and said: Does not your teacher pay the didrachma?
25 Peetero n’abaddamu nti, “Awa!” Peetero n’ayingira mu nnyumba. Naye Yesu n’amwesooka n’amubuuza nti, “Olowooza otya Simooni, bakabaka b’ensi basolooza omusolo ku bantu baabwe abatuuze oba ku bannamawanga be baba bawangudde?”
He said: Yes. And when he had come into the house, before he had spoken, Jesus said to him: What think you, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth collect tax or tribute? From their own sons, or from the sons of others?
26 Peetero n’addamu nti, “Basolooza ku bannamawanga.” Yesu n’amugamba nti, “Kale bannansi bo ba ddembe.”
Peter said to him: From the sons of others. Jesus said to him: Then are their own sons free.
27 “Naye obutabanyiiza, genda ku nnyanja osuulemu eddobo, ekyennyanja ky’onoosooka okukwasa okyasamye akamwa. Mu kamwa kaakyo onoolabamu esutateri, ozitwale oziweeyo osasule omusolo gwange n’ogugwo.”
But that we may give them no offense, go to the sea, and throw in a hook, and take the fish that comes up first; and when you have opened his mouth, you will find a stater; take that, and give to them for me and you.
