Matei 21
1 A Yeshu na bhaajiganywa bhabho bhakabhandishilanjeje ku Yelushalemu gubhaikengenenje ku Bhetipage tome na shitumbi sha Misheituni, gubhaatumilenjeje bhaajiganywa bhabho bhabhili,
And when they had drawn near to Jerusalem, and had arrived at Bethphage, at the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,
2 gubhaalugulilenje, “Nnjendangane kushijiji shili mmujo jenunji, kweneko shimung'imananje mbunda atabhilwe naka mwanagwe. Mwagopolanje nkajiye nabhonji.
saying to them: “Go into the town that is opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Release them, and lead them to me.
3 Monaga mundu ammuyangaga shoshowe, munnugulilanje, ‘Bhakulungwa bhanakwaapinganga,’ nabhalabho shangupe shibhampanganje.”
And if anyone will have said anything to you, say that the Lord has need of them. And he will promptly dismiss them.”
4 Genega gashinkutendeka nkupinga gatimilile gegala galugwilwe na ankulondola bha a Nnungu bhalinkuti,
Now all this was done in order to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet, saying,
5 “Mwaabhalanjilanje bhashilambo ku Shayuni, ‘Munnole, Mpalume jwenu anakwiya! Ashikwitimalika na ashikwela mbunda, Mwana jwa mbunda.’”
“Tell the daughter of Zion: Behold, your king comes to you meekly, sitting on a donkey and on a colt, the son of one accustomed to the yoke.”
6 Bhaajiganywa bhala gubhapitengene, nigubhatendilenje malinga shibhalugulilwenje na a Yeshu.
Then the disciples, going out, did just as Jesus instructed them.
7 Gubhanjiye nabhonji mbunda jula naka mwanagwe, gubhatandikenje nngubho yabhonji panani jabhonji na a Yeshu gubhakwelile nitama panani nngubho paka mwana mbunda.
And they brought the donkey and the colt, and they laid their garments on them, and they helped him sit upon them.
8 Bhandu bhagumbelenje bhala gubhatandikenje nngubho yabhonji ina mumpanda, na bhandu bhananji gubhatemilenje maagala gubhatandikenje mumpanda.
Then a very numerous crowd spread their garments on the way. But others cut branches from the trees and scattered them on the way.
9 Bhandu bhabhagwinji bhalinginji mmujo na bhalinginji nnyuma bhala, gubhautiyenje lilobhe bhalinkutinji, “Nnumbililwe Bhaulongo gwa a Daudi! Apegwe mboka jwene akwiya kwa lina lya Bhakulungwa! Bhalumbililwe a Nnungu bhali Kunnungu!”
And the crowds that preceded him, and those that followed, cried out, saying: “Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest!”
10 A Yeshu bhakajinjileje ku Yelushalemu, shilambo showe gushigumbele nnjasha. Bhandunji gubhalinginji nkubhuya, “Jweneju gani?”
And when he had entered into Jerusalem, the entire city was stirred up, saying, “Who is this?”
11 Likundi lya bhandunji munkumbi mula gubhashitenje, “Bhenebha a nkulondola bha a Nnungu a Yeshu, kopoka ku Nashaleti shilambo sha Galilaya.”
But the people were saying, “This is Jesus, the Prophet from Nazareth of Galilee.”
12 Bhai, a Yeshu gubhajinjile ku liekalu, gubhaabhinjilenje palanga bhandu bhaushangaga na uma indu ku liekalu, gubhapindikulenye mesha ya bhaatindiganya mmbiya bhala na itengu ya bhaushanga ngunda.
And Jesus entered into the temple of God, and he cast out all who were selling and buying in the temple, and he overturned the tables of the money changers and the chairs of the vendors of doves.
13 Gubhaalugulilenje, “Ishijandikwa Mmajandiko ga Ukonjelo, ‘Nyumba jangu shijishemwe nyumba ja nyujila nne.’ Ikabheje mmanganya nshikujitendanga lishembo lya bhaapokonyola indu.”
And he said to them: “It is written: ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer. But you have made it into a den of robbers.’”
14 Ashinangalole na bhalemelenje gubhaajendelenje ku liekaluko, nabhalabho a Yeshu gubhaalamiyenje.
And the blind and the lame drew near to him in the temple; and he healed them.
15 Bhai, bhakulungwanji bhaabhishila na bhaajiganya bha Shalia bhakaibhonanjeje ilapo ibhatendile a Yeshu, na bhana bhashoko pubhautiyangaga lilobhe ku liekalu bhalinkutinji, “Bhalumbililwe Bhaulongo gwa a Daudi,” gubhatumbelenje.
Then the leaders of the priests and the scribes became indignant, seeing the miracles that he wrought, and the children crying out in the temple, saying, “Hosanna to the Son of David!”
16 Kwa nneyo gubhaalugulilenje, “Bhuli, nkapilikana ibhaabheleketanga?” A Yeshu gubhaajangwilenje, “Elo, ngulipilikana! Bhuli, nkanabhe shomanga Mmajandiko? ‘Kwa kang'wa ya bhana bhashoko na ashinambombe Shibhannumbililanje.’”
And they said to him, “Do you hear what these ones are saying?” But Jesus said to them, “Certainly. Have you never read: For out of the mouth of babes and infants, you have perfected praise?”
17 Bhai, gubhaaleshilenje, gubhajabhwile pa shilambo pala gubhapite ku Bhetania, gubhagonile kweneko.
And leaving them behind, he went out, beyond the city, into Bethania, and he lodged here.
18 Lyambape a Yeshu bhalibhuja kwenda ku Yelushalemu, gubhakwete shibhanga.
Then, as he was returning to the city in the morning, he was hungry.
19 Gubhagubhweni nkongo gumo gwa tini nnyenje mpanda, gubhaujendele, ikabheje bhangashibhona shindu ikabhe maambape. Bhai, gubhaulugulile nkongo gula, “Unaogoye kabhili iepo pitipiti!” Shangupe nkongo gwa tini gula ukunyalaga. (aiōn g165)
And seeing a certain fig tree beside the way, he approached it. And he found nothing on it, except only leaves. And he said to it, “May fruit never spring forth from you, for all time.” And immediately the fig tree was dried up. (aiōn g165)
20 Bhaajiganywa bhakaubhonanjeje bhashinkulapanga, gubhashitenje, “Kwa nndi agu nkongogu ushinyala shangupe?”
And seeing this, the disciples wondered, saying, “How did it dry up so quickly?”
21 A Yeshu gubhaajangwilenje, “Kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, monaga nkolangaga ngulupai gwangali lipamba, shinkombolanje tenda nngabha ga ntinipe, ikabheje nkali kushilugulila ashi shitumbishi, ‘Tutumbuka ukatumbushile mmashi,’ shiitendeshe.
And Jesus responded to them by saying: “Amen I say to you, if you have faith and do not hesitate, not only shall you do this, concerning the fig tree, but even if you would say to this mountain, ‘Take and cast yourself into the sea,’ it shall be done.
22 Na nkolangaga ngulupai, shoshowe shishinnjuganje kwa a Nnungu, shimpegwanje.”
And all things whatsoever that you shall ask for in prayer: believing, you shall receive.”
23 A Yeshu bhakajinjileje ku liekalu bhali nkujiganya, bhakulungwanji bhaabhishila na bhanangulungwa bha bhandunji gubhaajendelenje nikwaabhuya, “Nnatenda genega kwa ukulungwa ukeni? Gani ampele jene amuliji?”
And when he had arrived at the temple, as he was teaching, the leaders of the priests and the elders of the people approached him, saying: “By what authority do you do these things? And who has given this authority to you?”
24 A Yeshu gubhaajangwilenje, “Na nne ngunakumuyanga, nnyangulangaga, bhai na nne shininnugulilanje ngunatenda genega kwa ukulungwa ukeni.
In response, Jesus said to them: “I also will question you with one word: if you tell me this, I also will tell you by what authority I do these things.
25 Bhuli, ubhatisho gwa a Yowana kugwakoposhele kwei? Bhuli, kugwakoposhele kwa a Nnungu eu ku bhandu?” Ikabheje gubhabheketelenje ashaayenenji, Tulugulaga, “Kugwakoposhele kwa a Nnungu,” shibhatubhuye, “Bhai, pakuti mwangakulupalilanga?”
The baptism of John, where was it from? Was it from heaven, or from men?” But they thought within themselves, saying:
26 Na tulugulaga, “Kugwakoposhele ku bhandu,” tunakwaajogopanga bhandunji pabha bhowe bhanakundanga kuti a Yowana ankulondola bha a Nnungu.
“If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say to us, ‘Then why did you not believe him?’ But if we say, ‘From men,’ we have the crowd to fear, for they all hold John to be a prophet.”
27 Bhai, gubhaajangwilenje, “Tukakumumanya!” Nabhalabho a Yeshu gubhaalugulilenje, “Numbe nne ngannugulilanga ngunatenda genega kwa ukulungwa gwashi.”
And so, they answered Jesus by saying, “We do not know.” So he also said to them: “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.
28 “Mmanganya nkubhonanga bhuli? Bhandu bhamo bhashinkukola bhana bhabhili. Gubhannugulile jwankulu jula, ‘Mwanangu, lelo ukakamule liengo kunngunda gwa mishabhibhu.’
But how does it seem to you? A certain man had two sons. And approaching the first, he said: ‘Son, go out today to work in my vineyard.’
29 Nshanda jula gwajangwile, ‘Ngajenda!’ Ikabheje gwaibhushiye, kungai gwapite kamula liengo.
And responding, he said, ‘I am not willing.’ But afterwards, being moved by repentance, he went.
30 Ainamundu bhala gubhannugulile jwa nnung'una jula nneila peila, jwalakwe akwaajangulaga, ‘Atati shinyende!’ Ikabheje jwangajenda.
And approaching the other, he spoke similarly. And answering, he said, ‘I am going, lord.’ And he did not go.
31 Bhuli, bhene bhabhilibha jwei atendile ibhapinga Ainamundu?” Gubhaajangwilenje, “Jwankulu jula.” Bhai, a Yeshu gubhaalugulilenje, “Kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, bhakamula koli na bha labhalabha shibhannongolelanje kujinjila Muupalume gwa a Nnungu.”
Which of the two did the will of the father?” They said to him, “The first.” Jesus said to them: “Amen I say to you, that tax collectors and prostitutes shall precede you, into the kingdom of God.
32 Pabha a Yowana bhanng'ishilenje na kunnanguyanga mpanda gwa aki mwangaakulupalilanga, ikabheje bhakamula koli na bha labhalabha bhashinkwaakulupalilanga. Nkali nkagabhonanjeje gowego mmanganya mwangaipetanga nikwaakulupalila.
For John came to you in the way of justice, and you did not believe him. But the tax collectors and the prostitutes believed him. Yet even after seeing this, you did not repent, so as to believe him.
33 A Yeshu gubhashite, mpilikananje lutango luna. Bhandu bhamo bhashinkulima nngunda gwa mishabhibhu, gubhatimbiliye lubhigo, gubhaolile liiko lya minyila divai, gubhashenjile na nyingo ja tama bhalinda. Kungai gubhaakolishiyenje bhaalima, gubhajabhwile kwenda shilambo sha talika.
Listen to another parable. There was a man, the father of a family, who planted a vineyard, and surrounded it with a hedge, and dug a press in it, and built a tower. And he loaned it out to farmers, and he set out to sojourn abroad.
34 Gakaisheje mobha ga maneng'eno, gubhaatumilenje bhatumishi bhabho ku bhaalimanga bhala, nkupinga bhakatolelanje ndalo.
Then, when the time of the fruits drew near, he sent his servants to the farmers, so that they might receive its fruits.
35 Bhaalimanga bhala gubhaakamwilenje bhatumishi bhala, jumo gubhankomilenje na juna gubhammulegenje na juna gubhankomilenje maganga mpaka gwawile.
And the farmers apprehended his servants; they struck one, and killed another, and stoned yet another.
36 Bhandu bhala gubhaatumilenje kabhili bhatumishi bhana, bhabhagwinji punda bhalongolelenje bhala. Bhaalimanga bhala gubhaatendelenje nneila peila malinga bhalongolelenje bhala.
Again, he sent other servants, more than before; and they treated them similarly.
37 Kumpelo gubhantumile mwanagwabho akuno bhaliganishiya, shibhannjogopanje pabha mwanangu.
Then, at the very end, he sent his son to them, saying: ‘They will revere my son.’
38 Ikabheje bhaalimanga bhala bhakammonanjeje mwanagwabho gubhabheleketenje ashaayenenji, “Jweneju ni apinga lishi, tummulaje tutole ulishi gwakwe!”
But the farmers, seeing the son, said among themselves: ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and then we will have his inheritance.’
39 Bhai, gubhankamwilenje, gubhampelekenje kunyenje nngunda gwa mishabhibhu gula, gubhammulegenje.
And apprehending him, they cast him outside the vineyard, and they killed him.
40 “Lelo, bhayene nngunda gwa mishabhibhu pushibhaishepo, shibhaatendanje bhuli bhaalimangabho?”
Therefore, when the lord of the vineyard arrives, what will he do to those farmers?”
41 Gubhajangwilenje, “Shibhaabhulaganje bhaalimanga bhangali bha mbonenjibho, na nngunda gula shibhaapanganje bhaalimanga bhananji, shibhajiye kwaapanganga ndalo.”
They said to him, “He will bring those evil men to an evil end, and he will loan out his vineyard to other farmers, who shall repay to him the fruit in its time.”
42 Penepo a Yeshu gubhaalugulilenje, “Bhuli, nkanabheshomanga yenei Mmajandiko? ‘Liganga libhalikanilenje bhaashenga Nnaino lishibha liganga likulu lya pa ndumba. Bhakulungwa bhatendile lyeneli, Na kunngwetu uwe ni lya lapa!’
Jesus said to them: “Have you never read in the Scriptures: ‘The stone that the builders have rejected has become the cornerstone. By the Lord has this been done, and it is wonderful in our eyes?’
43 “Kwa nneyo ngunakummalanjilanga, Upalume gwa a Nnungu upinga shoywa kungwenunji, bhapegwanje bhandunji bha ilambo ina, shibhakombolanje kutenda ibhapinga a Nnungu.”
Therefore, I say to you, that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you, and it shall be given to a people who shall produce its fruits.
44 Na jwene shaagwile lyene ligangalyo, shatemekanje ipande, na jojowe shilinngwile lyene ligangalyo, shakandaganywe.
And whoever will have fallen on this stone shall be broken, yet truly, on whomever it shall fall, it will crush him.”
45 Bhakulungwanji bhaabhishila na Mapalishayo bhakapilikananjeje ndango ya a Yeshu, gubhamumanyinji kuti bhanakwaabheleketanga.
And when the leaders of the priests, and the Pharisees had heard his parables, they knew that he was speaking about them.
46 Kwa nneyo gubhaloleyenje mwakwaakamulila, ikabheje bhatendaga kwaajogopanga bhandunji, pabha bhandunji bhamumanyinji kuti ankulondola bha a Nnungu.
And though they sought to take hold of him, they feared the crowds, because they held him to be a prophet.
