Mathayo 18
1 muda woo anapunzi bake batiicha kwa Yesu ni kummakiya, “Nyai ywabile nkolo mu'utawala wa kumaunde?”
At that time the disciples approached Jesus saying, “Who then is greater in the kingdom of the heavens?”
2 Yesu kaankema mwana nchunu kammeka nkati yabe,
So Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in the midst of them,
3 No baya, “Kweli nenda kuamakiya, mana mukotwike tubu no panga kati mwabana alele muweza kwaa jingya mu utawala wa Nnongo.
and said: “Assuredly I say to you, unless you change and become like little children, you will not enter the kingdom of the heavens.
4 Kwa eyo woywote ywalowa kuuluya kati mwana mnele, mundu kati ywo nga nkolo mu'utawala wa kumaunde.
Therefore whoever will humble himself like this little child, he is the greater in the kingdom of the heavens.
5 Ni mundu ywoywoti ywalowa kumpokya mwana mnele kwa lina lyango anipokya nenga.
“Whoever receives one little child like this in my name, receives me;
6 Lakini ywoywoti ywasababisha jumo kati ya alele aba babaniaminiya asi, yalowa panga bora kwa mundu ywp liwe likolo lyo sangya likatabilwa paingo yake ni, tumbukilwa mu'bahari.
but whoever should cause one of these little ones who believe into me to fall, it would be better for him if a large millstone were hung on his neck and he were drowned in the depth of the sea!
7 Ole kwa dunia kwasababu kunumiya! kwa mana ntopo namna kwa wakati wo icha, lakini ole kachake kwa mundu yolo wakati woo yaicha kwaajili yake!
Woe to the world because of offenses! Now it is necessary that offenses come, but woe to that person by whom the offense comes!
8 Kati luboko lwako lutikusababisha kukwazika, ukate ni utaikwe kutalu ni wenga bora kachako wenga jingya muuzima ubile ntopo luboko au kilema, kuliko taikulikwa mumwoto wa machoba gangunganikwa ubile na maboko goti na magolo goti. (aiōnios g166)
“If your hand or your foot is causing you to fall, cut them off and throw them away! It is better for you to enter into the life lame or maimed than to be thrown into the everlasting fire, having two hands or two feet. (aiōnios g166)
9 Liyo lyako mana likukoseyite, ulitupwe na ulitaikwe kutalu ni wenga. Bora kachako wenga ujingii mu uzima na liyo limo, kuliko taikuliwa kumwoto wa masoba yangeyomoka ubile ni minyo yoti. (Geenna g1067)
And if your eye is causing you to fall, tear it out and throw it away! It is better for you to enter into the life one eyed than to be thrown into the fiery Hell, having two eyes. (Geenna g1067)
10 Linga panga kana mwazarau jumo ywa achene baa kwa mana nenda kuwamakiya panga kumaunde kwii na malaika bembe masoba goti, kaba ulolekeya kuminyo kwa Tate bango ywabile kumaunde.
“See to it that you do not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father, who is in the heavens.
For the Son of the Man came to save the lost.
12 Muwaza namani? Mana itei mundu abi na ngondolo mia jimo yumo aobe, Je! aweza kwaleka tisini na tisa ya kitombe na yenda kwapala yolo yumo ywaobite?
What do you think? If some man has a hundred sheep and one of them goes astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine in the mountains to go and search for the stray?
13 Na mana amweni, kweli nenda kuwamakiya, alowa kumpulaikya kutiloo tisini na tisa babakotwike obe.
And if he happens to find it, assuredly I say to you, he rejoices more over it than over the ninety-nine that did not go astray.
14 Nga nyo mapenzi kwaa ga Tate binu ywa kumaunde panga kati ya yumo ywa achene ba baobe.
Likewise it is not a desire, in the view of your Father in heaven, that one of these little ones should be wasted.
15 Mana nongo wako akukoseite, uyende, ukanobe akusami abile kichake. Mana akuyowine wapanga ukelebwiye nnongo'wo.
“Now if your brother sins against you, go, confront him between you and him alone. If he hears you, you have won your brother.
16 Lakini mana akuyowine kwaa, wapotwe alongo benge abele au atatu mana kwa mikano ya ashahidi abele au atatu kila likowe liweza yomoka.
But should he not hear, take along with you one or two more, so that every word may be established by the mouth of two or three witnesses.
17 Na mana asalawile kukupekaniya, ulibakiye li'kanisa likowe lyoo, mana asalawite kae kulipekaniya likanisa, bai na abe kati mundu wa dunia na ywalonga ushuru.
And should he refuse to hear them, tell it to the congregation. But should he refuse to hear even the congregation, let him be to you just like the heathen and the tax collector.
18 Kweli nenda kuamakiya, chachatabilwa mu'dunia na kumaunde kilabilwe na chochote chachayongoyelwe mu'dunia na kumaunde kiyongolike.
“Assuredly I say to you, whatever (pl.) you (pl.) may bind on earth will have been bound in heaven, and whatever you may loose on earth will have been loosed in heaven.
19 Kae nenda kuamakiya panga bandu kati yinu mana bayeketyaniye kunani ya kikowe lyolyote mu'dunia kabaloba, halyo
Assuredly again, I say to you that if two of you should agree on earth about any subject whatever that they may ask, it will be done for them by my Father who is in heaven.
20 Tate bango ba kunani alowa panga. Kwa mwanja abele au atatu mana bakusawike pamope kwa lina lyangi, Ne nibi pakati kati yabe.
Because where there are two or three gathered together into my name, there I am in their midst!”
21 Na Petro kaisa na kummakiya Yesu, “Ngwana, mara ilenga nongo wango mana anikoseite na nenga nimsami? Hata mara saba?
Then Peter approached Him and said, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him; up to seven times?”
22 Yesu kammakiya, “Nikubakiya kwa mara saba, lakini hata sabaini mara saba.
Jesus says to him: “Not, I tell you, up to seven, but up to seventy-seven times!
23 Kwa mwanza nyo utawala wa kumaunde ni sawa na tawala pulani ywapalage lekebisha esabu buka kwa atumwa bake.
“Therefore the kingdom of the heavens is like a certain king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants.
24 Paatumbwi lekebisha esabu, mtumwa yumo batikunnetya kachake na ywembe alonge lwage talanta elfu komi.
And as he began to settle up, one debtor of ten thousand talents was brought to him.
25 Mana abile nacho kwaa Cleopata, Ngwana wake alangi apemeyelwe, nyumbowe bana bake na kila kilebe chabile nacho, na alepe.
But since he had nothing with which to repay, his lord commanded that he be sold, with his wife and children and everything he had, so as to be repaid.
26 Nga aywo mmanda ngalabukya, apiyite magoti nnongi yake kabaya, “Ngwana unipumiliye nenga, nalowa kukulepa kila kilebe'.
So then the servant fell down and did obeisance to him saying, ‘Lord, be patient with me and I will repay you all.’
27 Nga aywo Ngwana wa mmanda ywo, mana abina uruma, atikunneka na kusamwa deni lyo
So the lord of that servant, having compassion, released him and forgave him the loan.
28 Lakini mmanda ywo atiboka na kumpata mmanda yumo katika amanda benge, ywa nnongage dinari mia. Atikumwuta, na kunkaba pa'ingo, na kumakiya, “Unilepe chanikulenga.'
“But when that servant went out he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii; and grabbing him he started choking him saying, ‘Pay me back what you owe!’
29 Lakini yolo mmanda ywenge atikukilikitya ni kunnoba muno, kabaya, “Unipumiliye, nalowa kukulepa.”
So his fellow servant fell down at his feet and kept begging him saying, ‘Be patient with me and I will pay you back.’
30 Lakini mmanda ywa kwanza atikana. Badala yake ayei kuntaba kuligereza, paka palepa deni lyake.
But he would not; instead he went and threw him into prison until he should pay back what was owed.
31 Pababweni amanda wenge chelo chakipangite. Batikasirika muno Batiisa ni kummakiya Ngwana wabe kila kilebe chakipitike.
But when his fellow servants saw what had happened they were really grieved, and they went and reported to their lord everything that had happened.
32 Boka po ngwana wa atmanda yolo ankemite, ni kummakiya,'wenga wa mmanda mmaya, nitikusamya wenga lideni lyako lyoti kwa mwanja wati niloba muno.
Then summoning him the lord says to him: ‘Malignant servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me.
33 Ywabile ni wenga ukaba na huruma kwa mmanda nyino kati nenga mwanikuhurumiye wenga?
Were you also not obligated to have mercy on your fellow servant, just as I had mercy on you?’
34 Ngwana wake atikasirika muno ni kwapeya askari watesa mpaka apalepa lideni lyake.
So in anger the lord handed him over to the torturers until he should repay all that was owed to him.
35 Eyo nga Tate bango ba kumaunde ngabalowa panga, manaite nkolikwe samyana mwalongo sika kwa mwoyo winu”.
“My heavenly Father will handle you just like that, if each of you does not forgive his brother his trespasses, from the heart.”
