Matei 24
1 A Yeshu gubhakopweshe ku liekalu nigubhaijabhulile, bhaajiganya bhabho gubhaajendelenje nikwaalanguya majumba gatimbilile liekalu.
So as Jesus was going out, departing from the temple, His disciples came up to show Him the buildings of the temple.
2 A Yeshu gubhaabhalanjilenje, “Nnikugabhonanga gene gowega! Kweli ngunakunnugulilanga, lyakwapi liganga nkali limo shililepeshe panani liganga, yowe ipinga bhomolwa.”
But Jesus said to them: “Do you not see all these things? Assuredly I say to you, absolutely not a single stone here will be left upon another, that will not be thrown down.”
3 A Yeshu bhakatameje pa shitumbi sha Misheituni, bhaajiganywa bhabho gubhaajendelenje shintemela, gubhaabhushiyenje, “Nntulugulile genega pushigakoposhele shakani? Shilangulo shashi shishilanguye kwiya kwenu na mpelo gwa shilambolyo?” (aiōn g165)
Now as He was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately saying: “Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming and of the completion of the age?” (aiōn g165)
4 A Yeshu gubhaajangwilenje, “Mwiteiganje mundu anantembanje.
So in answer Jesus said to them: “Watch out, so that no one deceives you.
5 Pabha bhandu bhabhagwinji shibhaikangane bhalinkutinji, ‘Nne a Kilishitu,’ na bhalabhonji shibhaatembanje bhandu bhabhagwinji.
Because many will come in my name saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and they will deceive many.
6 Shimpilikananje ililo ya ngondo na ngani ya ngondo, ikabheje nnajogopanje, pabha genego ganapinjikwa gakoposhele, ikabheje mpelo ukanabhe.
You will be concerned when you hear of wars and rumors of wars; see to it that you not get worked up; for all of it has to happen, but the end is not yet.
7 Shilambo shipinga komana na shilambo shina, upalume gumo upinga komana na upalume guna. Shipinga pagwa shibhanga na ungumila kwa ilambo.
For nation will be raised up against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and pestilences and earthquakes in various places;
8 Yene yoweyo mbuti kutandubha kwa mboteko ya shitumbo nkupinga kwiigopola.
but all these things are only a beginning of birth pains.
9 “Kungai bhandu bhowe shibhantendebhukanje nkupinga mpotekwanje na bhulagwa. Na bhandunji bhangabha Bhayaudi bhapinga kunshimanga kwa ligongo lyangu nne.
“Then they will hand you over to oppression and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for my name's sake.
10 Kabhili, bhabhagwinji bhapinga lekanga ngulupai jabhonji na tendebhukana na shimana.
And then many will be offended, and they will betray one another and will hate one another.
11 Bhapinga koposhelanga ashinkulondola bha unami bhabhagwinji bhapinga kwaapuganyanga bhandu bhabhagwinji.
And many false prophets will be raised up and they will deceive many.
12 Kwa ligongo lya jenjesheka ilebho, kupingana kwa bhandu shukubhujile nnyuma.
And because of the increase of the lawlessness the love of the majority will grow cold.
13 Ikabheje shaikakatimilile mpaka kumpelo shatapulwe.
So the one who perseveres to the end, he will be saved.
14 Ngani ja Mmbone ja Upalume gwa a Nnungu jipinga lunguywa pa shilambolyo, kubha ukong'ondelo ku bhandu bhowe, penepo ni pushuishe mpelo gula.”
And this good news of the kingdom will be proclaimed in the whole inhabited earth as a witness to all the ethnic nations, and then the end will come.
15 Ashomajo agamanye malombolelo ga malobhe ga a Yeshu gakwiya gano. Nigubhashite, a Danieli ankulondola bha a Nnungu bhalugwile ga nnjimwa ja nyatiya. Pushinnjibhonanje jijimi pa ukonjelo,
“So then, when you (ye) see the ‘abomination of desolation’, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place” (let the reader understand),
16 bhalinginji ku Yudea bhabhutushilanje mwiitumbi.
“then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.
17 Ali pashitubhili anatulushe pai kutola indu nnyumba jakwe.
Anyone on the housetop should not go down to take things out of his house,
18 Ali kunngunda anabhuje kumui kutola nngubho yakwe.
and anyone in the field should not go back to get his cloak.
19 Ole gwabhonji bhanabhakongwe bhakwetenje ndumbo na bhajonjeyanga gene mobhago.
But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing a baby in those days!
20 Nnjuganje kwa a Nnungu nkupinga kubhutuka kwenunji kunabhe mobha ga mmbepo eu Lyubha lya Pumulila.
And pray that your flight may not happen in winter or on a Sabbath.
21 Pabha gene mobhago shipinga pagwa shilaje shikanabhe koposhela shitandubhile kupanganywa shilambolyo mpaka lelo, wala shikajiya pagwa kabhili.
Because then there will be a great tribulation, such as has never been since the beginning of the world until now, and never again will be.
22 Monaga gene mobhago a Nnungu bhakanapunguye jakwa mundu jojowe akatapwilwe, ikabheje gapinga punguywa kwa ligongo lya bhandu bhaagwilwenje na a Nnungu.
And unless those days were cut short no flesh would be saved; but for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.
23 Bhai, mundu annugulilangaga, a Kilishitu pubhali apano, eu kubhali akula, nnankulupalilanje.
Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, the Messiah is here!’ or ‘there!’ do not believe him.
24 Pabha bhaapinga koposhelanga Bhakilishitu na ashinkulondola bha unami. Bhapinga tendanga ilangulo ya ikulungwa na ya lapa ya kombola nkali kwapuganyanga bhaagwilwenje na a Nnungu.
Because false christs and false prophets will be raised up, and they will give great signs and wonders so as to deceive, if possible, even the elect.
25 Mpilikananje, njikunnimbiyanga gakanabhe koposhela genego.
See, I have told you beforehand.
26 Bhai, bhannugulilangaga, nnolanje, kubhali kuanga, nnajendangane kweneko, eu, nnolanje, mubhali nnyumba, nnakulupalilanje.
So if they should say to you, ‘Look, He is in the wilderness!’ do not go out; ‘Look, in the secret rooms!’ do not believe it.
27 Pabha malinga nnjai shijikuti meta nibhoneka kuliunde kowe, pushiijiyebha malinga pushabhoneshe Mwana juka Mundu lyubha lyashaishe.
Because just as the lightning comes from east and shines to west, so also will be the coming of the Son of the Man;
28 Malinga, pene puguli ntui, nipugaimana matumbui, kwa nneyo shene shilanguloshi shinalangula kuti ku mpelo gwa shilambolyo kubhandishile.
for wherever the carcass may be there will be a gathering of vultures.
29 Shangupe shipitaga shilaje sha gene mobhago, lyubha lipingabha nnubhindu, mwei ukalangaya na ndondwa ipingagwa pai na mashili ga indu ya kunnungu gapinga tenganyika.
“Immediately after the tribulation of those days, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from the heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
30 Kungai, shilangulo shika Mwana juka Mundu shishibhoneshe kunnungu, penepo makabhila gowe ga pa shilambolyo gapinga kwiigutanjila, shibhammonanje Mwana juka Mundu alikwiiya mmaunde ga kunnungu ali na mashili na ukonjelo gwanngwinji.
And then the sign of the Son of the Man will appear in the sky, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn—they will see the Son of the Man coming on the clouds of the heaven with power and great glory.
31 Na bhalabho shibhaatumanje ashimalaika bhabho na lipenga lya oneya, bhalabhonji bhapinga kwaalopolanga bhaagwilwenje bhabho kopoka mmbali yowe ya pa shilambolyo.
And He will send out His angels with a great sound of a trumpet and they will collect His elect from the four winds, from one extreme of the heavens to the other.
32 Bhai kwa nkongo mwiijiganyanye alu lutangolu, shangupe nyambi yakwe puitandubha ipuka, nnakumumanyanga kuti shuku shibhandishile.
“Now learn this parable from the fig tree: when its branch has already become tender and it puts forth leaves, you know that the summer is near.
33 Nneyo peyo mmanganya pushinngabhonanje genega, mmumanyanje kuti bhabhandishile.
So you also, whenever you see all these things, know that it is near, at the doors!
34 Kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, alu lubhelekolu lukapela gakanabhe koposhela gowego.
Assuredly I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things happen.
35 Kunnungu na shilambolyo shiipite, ikabheje malobhe gangu gakapita.
The heaven and the earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
36 Ikabheje, ga lyene lyubhalyo, eu malanga jwakwa mundu akugamanya shigabhe shakani, wala ashimalaika bha kunnungu, wala Mwana, ikabhe Atati jikape.
“But no one knows concerning that day and hour, not even the angels of the heavens, except my Father alone.
37 Pabha malinga shiyaliji mobha ga a Nuu, puipingabha mobha ga kwiya kwakwe Mwana juka Mundu.
But just as were the days of Noah, so also will be the coming of the Son of the Man.
38 Pabha gene mobhago, nduluko jikanabhe tuluka, bhandunji bhatenda lyanganga na kolelwa na lomba na lombwa, mpaka a Nuu pubhajinjile nshapina.
For just as they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, in the days before the flood until the day that Noah entered the ark,
39 Bhangashimanyanga shipinga koposhela, mpaka pujaishe nduluko, jikwaajolangaga bhowe. Na malinga pushiijiyebha lyubha lya kwiya kwakwe Mwana juka Mundu.
and were not aware until the flood came and took all away, so also will be the coming of the Son of the Man.
40 Gene mobhago bhandunji bhabhili shibhabhanganje mungunda, jumo shatolwe na juna shaleshwe.
Then two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other will be left.
41 Bhanabhakongwe bhabhili shibhabhanganje bhaliyaganga, jumo shatolwe na juna shaleshwe.
Two women will be grinding at the mill; one will be taken and the other will be left.
42 Bhai, nsheyanje, pabha nkakulimanyanga lyubha lishibhaishe Bhakulungwa bhenunji.
So be watchful, because you (pl) do not know in what hour your Lord is coming.
43 Ikabheje nnimanyanje lyeneli, monaga bhayene nyumba bhakalimanyi lyubha lya kwiya nngwii, bhakasheshiye, ngubhakajileshileje nyumba jabho kujibhwa.
But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what watch the thief was coming, he would have stayed awake and not allowed his house to be broken into.
44 Kwa nneyo na mmanganya nsheyanje, pabha Mwana juka Mundu shaishe malanga gunkakugamanyanga.
Therefore you also be ready, because the Son of the Man is coming at an hour that you do not suppose.
45 A Yeshu gubhapundile kubheleketa bhalinkuti, bhai gani ntumishi akulupalika na akwete lunda, bhakulungwa bhakwe shibhantende abhe jwa nkulungwa ku bhandu bhabho, abhapanganje shalya pa malanga gakwe?
“Who then is the faithful and prudent servant whom his lord placed over his corps of servants to give them food on schedule?
46 Mbaya jwene ntumishi, bhakulungwa bhakwe pushibhaishe shibhanng'imane alitenda nneyo.
Blessed be that servant whom his master, when he comes, will find doing so.
47 Kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, shibhammishe jwene ntumishijo agoye indu yabho yowe.
Assuredly I say to you that he will place him over all his possessions.
48 Ikabheje ntumishi jwangali jwa mmbone aibheleketelaga muntima gwakwe kuti, bhakulungwa bhangu bhanakabha kubhuja,
But if that bad servant should say in his heart, ‘My lord is delaying his return,’
49 kungai gwatandwibhe kwaakomanga bhatumishi ajakwe na tandubha lya na papila pamo na bhaakolelwanga,
and should begin to beat his fellow servants, and to eat and drink with the drunkards,
50 bhakulungwa bhakwe ntumishijo shibhaishe lyubha lyangaganishiwa na malanga gangamanyika.
the lord of that servant will come on a day when he is not looking for him and at an hour when he is not aware,
51 Shibhankome kwa kaje na kunkundikanya likundi limo na bhagulumba. Kweneko shikubhe shililo na tauna meno.
and will cut him in two and appoint his portion with the hypocrites. There, there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
