Mathayo 12
1 Lichoba lya sabato Yesu kapeta karibu ni mung'unda, anapunzi bake babile ni njala gabatekwa makasi no lyaa.
About this time as Jesus passed through the cornfields on the sabbath-day, his disciples being hungry began to pluck the ears of corn, and to eat them.
2 Lakini Mafarisayo pabagabweni goo, nga bammakiya Yesu aalagiye anapunzi bake baitekwana saliya bapanga lsoba lyange lusilwa lisoba lya Sabato.”
And when the pharisees saw it they said to Him, See, thy disciples are doing what is not lawful for them to do on the sabbath.
3 Lakini Yesu ngaabakiya, “Munasoma kwa Daudi mwapangite wakati wabile na njala, bamope na bandu babile pamope nabo?
But He replied, Have ye not read what David did, when he, and his attendants, were hungry? how he went into the house of God,
4 Mwayingii nyumba ya Nnongo no lyaa mikate ya madhabahu, na yabile kwaa alali kachake kwi na balo babile nabo, ila alali kwaa makuhani?
and did eat the shew-bread, which it was not lawful for him to eat, nor those that were with him; but for the priests only? or have ye not read in the law,
5 Bado munasoma kwa kuhusu saliya, panga lisoba luya sabato Makuhani gati ya hekalu kwichapuya sabato, lakini ntopo ywa sitakiya?
what profane sort of work the priests do in the temple on the sabbath-days, and yet are blameless?
6 Lakini nilongela kachinu panga ywabile nkolo kuliko hekalu abile pano.
But I tell you, that a greater than the temple is here:
7 taanga ayee ina maana gani, nipala loba na sio sadaka, mpele kwa hukumu kwa benge makosa.
and if ye had known what that scripture means, "I desire mercy rather than sacrifice," ye would not have condemned the guiltless.
8 Mana mwana wa Adamu nga Ngwana wa sabato.
For the Son of man is lord even of the sabbath.
9 Yesu gabuka palo gayenda kuhekalu lyabe, linga kwabi na mundu mlemafu wa luboko Mafarisayo ngaba naluya Yesu, kababaya,
And he went away and came into their synagogue: and there being a man there who had a withered hand,
10 “Je, halali kumponeya lisoba lya sabato?”Lenga bapate kusitakiwa kwopanga sambi.
they asked Him, if it were lawful to heal on the sabbath-days? that they might accuse Him.
11 Yesu kaakokiya, “Nyai kato yinu, abile ni ngondolo yumo, ni aywoo ngondolo atumbuki mulembwa lisoba lya sabato, ywakotoka kunapwa?
But He said unto them, What man of you shall have one of his sheep fall into a pit on the sabbath-day, and will not lay hold of it and lift it out?
12 Je, kilebe chaako cha thamani, bora kunopwa mundu kuliko ngondolo! kwa eyo alali bai panga mema lisoba lya sabato.”
And of how much more worth is a man than a sheep? Sure then it is lawful to do good on the sabbath-days.
13 Yesu kankokeya ywa mundu, “ngalowa luboko lwako”Ngalugoloya, ngalupona, kati lololwenge.
Then saith He to the man, Stretch out thine hand: and he stretched it out, and it was made sound like the other.
14 Lakini Mafarisayo ngabapita panja kabapanga ndela ya kumulaga.
But the pharisees went out of the synagogue and took counsel together against Him, how they might destroy Him:
15 Yesu patangite mpango woo atiboka. Bandu banyansima batikunkengama, nga aponea bote.
but Jesus knew it, and withdrew from thence; and great multitudes followed Him with their sick,
16 Abakiye kana babakiye bandu akanatanganikilwa kwa bananchima,
and he healed them all, charging them not to make Him known:
17 panga ilimi yolo kweli, yabaite nabii Isaya, kaba
that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Behold my servant whom I have chosen,
18 Linga, mtumishi wango ywanichewile, ywanimpendile, kwa ywembe mwoyo wango utikumpenda. Nalowa beka Roho yango kunani yake, na alowa tangaza hukumu kwa mataifa.
my beloved in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon Him, and He shall declare judgement to the nations: He shall not contend,
19 Aangaika kwaa wala lela kwa ngupu; aimiya kwa utambi wa upiya lyoi, mpaka pateta hukumu no shida.
nor cry aloud, nor shall any one hear his voice in the streets:
20 Kana auna tete lyalichubulilwa, kana aime tambi yoyoti wauluka lioi.
a bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax he will not extinguish, till He send forth judgement victorious.
21 Na mataifa balowa bana ujasili kwa lina lyake.
And in his name shall the Gentiles hope.
22 Mundu pilani ngaminya na bubu, ywalobi moka banetike kwa Yesu. Ngamponiye, pamope ni mundu bubu pona na kipofu bona;
Then was brought to Him a demoniac, who was blind and dumb; and he healed Him, so that the blind and dumb man both spake and saw:
23 Bandu boti batisangala no baya, iweza wezekana mundu yoo mwana wa Daudi?”
and all the multitudes were amazed, and said, "Is not this the Son of David?"
24 Lakini Mafarisayo pabayowine husu maujiza agoo, batibaya, “Ayo mundu aboya kwa masetani kwa ngupu yake mwene ila kwa Baheburi, mpendo wa masetani.
which the pharisees hearing, said, "He only casts out demons by the help of Beelzebub the prince of the devils."
25 Lakini Yesu agatangite gabaweza na kwabakiya, “Kila utawala wautalanganike wene walowa alabika kwaa, na kila nyumba yayalowa lalanganika bene yayema kwaa.
But Jesus, who well knew their thoughts, said to them, Every kingdom divided against itself becomes desolate; and no city, or family, divided against itself can stand:
26 Mana itei nchela alowa kumoya nchela, inda kipenga muakili yake mwene.
if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how then shall his kingdom stand?
27 Kwa kitiwi utawala wake walowa yema? Na mana itei niboya nchelakwa ngupu ya Belizabuli, babafata mwenga babuya nchela kwa ndela ya kele? kwa ndela ya balowa ba akimu winu.
And if I cast out demons by the power of Beelzebub, by whom do your own people cast them out? wherefore they shall be your judges:
28 Na mana kanibuya nchela kwa ndela ya Roho wa Nnongo, bai utawala wa Nnongo uichile kachinu.
but if I by the Spirit of God cast out devils, then certainly the kingdom of God is come unto you.
29 Ni aweza buri yingwa nyumba ya mwene ngupu najiba, bila kutaba mwene ngufu wete? Ngaweza yiba ilebe yake buka nkati ya nyumba.
Or, how can any one enter into the house of a strong man, and take away his goods, unless he first overpower the strong man? and then indeed he may strip his house.
30 ywoywoti ywakotwike baa nanee enda kunitaukya, na ywa kutoka kumba pamope na nee enda palagana.
He that is not with me, is against me; and he that gathereth not with me, scattereth.
31 Kwa eyo nibaya kachinu, kila sambi na kufulu bandu alowa kwa samiya, lakini kukufulu Roho Mtakatifu asamiya kwaa.
Wherefore, I tell you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven to men; but the blasphemy against the holy Spirit shall not be forgiven them:
32 Na ywoywoti ywalowa baya likowe kinyume sa mwana wa Adamu, alowa kusamiwa. Lakini ywolongela kinchogo sa Roho Mtakatifu aywo basamwa kwaa, kwa utawala ngo wala wauicha. (aiōn g165)
and if any one speak against the Son of man, it may be forgiven him: but if any one speak against the holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this life, nor in that to come. (aiōn g165)
33 Ao upange mkongo panga unanoga na litundu lyake linanoga, kwasababu nkonga utanganikwa mutunda gake.
Either allow the tree to be good, and it's fruit good; or shew the tree to be corrupt, and it's fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by it's fruit.
34 Mwenga, wa lukolo lwa ng'ambo, mwenga mwabaya muweza longela makowe gananoga? Kwasababu mikano ilongela buka mumwoyo.
O race of vipers, how can ye speak good things, who are yourselves so wicked? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
35 Mundu nzuri muakiba inanoga ya mwoyo wake gapita gananoga, na mundu mwou mu'akiba ou ya mwoyo wake, ipita kilebe kinayangata.
A good man out of the good treasure of the heart produceth good things; and a wicked man out of the wicked treasure uttereth wicked things:
36 Nenda kuwamakiya panga lisoba lya ukumu bandu balowapiya hesabu ya kila likowe lyange mana lyabalongelage.
but I tell you, that of every idle word, which men shall speak, they shall give an account in the day of judgement; for by thy words thou shalt be justified,
37 Kwa kuwa kwa makowe gako walowa balangilwa haki na kwa makowe gako walowa hukumilwa.”
and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
38 Mwisho baazi ya aandishi ni Mafarisayo ngaban'yangwa Yesu kababaya, “Mwalimu twapendi kubona ishara kachako.”
Then some of the scribes and pharisees answered Him, saying, Master, we should be glad to see a sign from thee:
39 Lakini Yesu atikwayangwa ni kuakokeya, “kibelekwi kinoite kwaa ni sa umalaya kipala ishara lakini ntopo ishara yailwapila kachako ila yulo ya nabii Yona.
but He replied and said unto them, This wicked and degenerate race demand a sign; but no sign shall be given them, except that of the prophet Jonah:
40 Kati nabii Yona mwaatami mundumbo lya omba nkolo kwa masoba gatatu kilo ni mutwekati, nga nyoo mwana wa Adam alowa tama nkati ya mwoyo wa bwee kwa muda wa masoba gatatu kilo ni mutwekati.
for as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly, so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
41 Bandu baninawi balowa yema nnonge ya hukumu pamope ni ubelekwi wa bandu aba na balowa hukumilwa kwasababu batiloba kwa makaburi ga Yona, linga mundu nkolo kuliko Yona abile pano.
So that the men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgement against this generation, and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold a greater than Jonas is here.
42 Malkia wa kusini alowa katuka pa hukumu pamope ni bandu ba mmelekwoogu na kwa hukumu. Aisi boka mwiso wa dunia icha pekaniya hekima ya Selemani, na linga, mundu fulani nkolo kuliko Selemani abile pano.
The queen of the South too, shall rise up in the day of judgement against this generation, and condemn it; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold a greater than Solomon is here.
43 Nchela pamoka mundu, apeta pange mmache kapala pompomolya, ila mana akotwike kupabona.
Now when an impure spirit is gone out of a man, he wanders through dry desert places, seeking rest, and findeth none:
44 mwisho baya mbala buyangana kunyumba yango kwa mboi. mana aikoli yumo nyumba isafishilwe na ibi tayari.
then saith he, I will return into my house, that I came out of; and when he cometh, he findeth it empty, swept, and set off to advantage:
45 Alowa kelebuka na kwaleta benge roho njapu saba bababile abaya sana kuliko ywembe isa tama bote palo. Na hali yake baa mbaya kuliko ya mwanzo. Ngamwalowa panga kwa ubelekwi wono mwou.
then he goeth and taketh with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there; and so the last state of that man is worse than the first. And thus shall it be to this wicked generation.
46 Wakati Yesu kalongela umati linga mabake na akinanunabe bayemi panja, kabampala.”
Now as He was yet discoursing to the people, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without, and desired to speak to Him:
47 Mundu yumo atikummakiya, “linga maobako na akinanunango bayemi panja, bapala longela na wenga.”
and somebody said to Him, "Here are thy mother and thy brethren standing without, desiring to speak to thee."
48 Lakini Yesu kayangwa ni kuakokeya ywaammakiye mao bango nyai? Ni anuna bango aki'nyai?
But in answer to him that told Him, He said, "Who is my mother, and who are my brethren?"
49 Nga alangwa anapunzi bake nobaya, “Linga, aba nga mao ni anuna bango!
and stretching out his hand towards his disciples, He said, "Behold my mother and my brethren:"
50 Mana ywoywoti ywagapanga gabapendi Tate bango ywaabile kumaunde, mundu ywo nga nongo wango mno bwango na mao bango.”
for whosoever doth the will of my Father who is in heaven, he is to me as my brother and sister and mother.
