Matei 9
1 Yesu akayingila muwatu na kukupuka munyanja na kuhika kumuji wavi.
And he ascended (into) the ship, and went over, and came to his city.
2 Penapo vandu vamletili mundu mmonga mweapoli higa, vamgonisi pa lusongwani. Yesu paavaweni chavisadika, akamjovela mundu mweapoli yula, “Jipolesa mtima mwana vangu! Kumbudila kwaku Chapanga ulekekiswi.”
And they brought to him a paralytic lying on a bed; and Jeshu saw their faith, and said to the paralytic, Be comforted, my son, thy sins are forgiven thee.
3 Vawula vangi va malagizu vakatumbula kuhololela, “Mundu uyu akumliga Chapanga!”
But men from among the scribes said within themselves, This blasphemeth.
4 Yesu amanyili maholo gavi akajova, “Ndava kyani mhololela gahakau mumtima winu?
But Jeshu knew their reasonings, and said to them, Why reason ye evil in your hearts?
5 Chinonopa kiki kujova, ‘Ulekekiswi kumbudila Chapanga waku,’ Amala kujova, ‘Yima, ugenda?’
For which is easier, to say, Forgiven are thy sins, or to say, Arise, walk?
6 Hinu, nigana mmanya kuvya Mwana wa Mundu anauhotola pamulima kuvalekekesa vandu gevambudili Chapanga.” Penapo ndi akamjovela mundu mweapoli yula, “Yima ugega lusongwani lwaku amba kunyumba yaku!”
But that ye may know that authority hath the Son of man in the earth to remit sins, he saith to him-the paralytic, -Arise, lift up thy bed, and go to thy house:
7 Na mundu mwenuyo akawuka na kuhamba kunyumba yaki.
and he arose (and) went to his house.
8 Msambi wa vandu wula pevagaweni ago, vakakangasa na kuyogopa, vakamulumbalila Chapanga mweavapelii vandu uhotola wenuwu.
When the assembly saw this, they feared, and glorified Aloha who had given such power as this unto men.
9 Yesu akawuka penapo, ndi peavili mukuhamba amuwene mundu mmonga mweikemiwa Matei, atamili munyumba ya kutolela kodi. Hinu, Yesu amjovili, “Unilanda.” Namwene akayima na kumlanda.
AND when Jeshu had passed thence, he saw a man who was sitting at the place of the tribute-takers, whose name was Mathai; and he said to him, Come after me; and he arose and went after him.
10 Yesu peatamili munyumba ya Matei, kulya chakulya, vatola kodi vamahele na vevakumbudila Chapanga vabwelili kulya nayu, pamonga na vawuliwa vaki.
And while he reclined in the house, there came to him many tribute-gatherers and sinners, and reclined with Jeshu and with his disciples.
11 Pagati ya Vafalisayu vangi pavagaweni genago, vakavakota vawuliwa vaki, “Ndava kyani muwula winu ilya pamonga na vatola kodi na vandu vevakumbudila Chapanga?”
And when the Pharishee saw (it), they say to his disciples, Why doth your master eat with tribute-takers and sinners?
12 Yesu akavayuwana, akayangula, “Vandu vangalwala nakugana mlamisa, nambu vana matamu ndi vakumgana mlamisa.
But Jeshu, when he heard (it), said to them, The healthful have no need for the physician, but they who are diseased.
13 Hinu mukajiwula malovi aga mana yaki kyani, ‘Nigana lipyana, lepi luteta lwa kutinyisa.’ Nibweli lepi kuvakemela vandu vevihenga matendu gabwina palongolo ya Chapanga, nambu ndava ya vevakumbudila Chapanga.”
Go, learn what that is: -" I require mercy, and not sacrifice; " for I am not come to call the righteous, but the sinners.
14 Kangi, vawuliwa va Yohani Mbatizaji vamubwelili Yesu, vakamkota, “Tete na Vafalisayu tikujihinisa kulya chakulya pamahele ndava ya Bambu. Ndava kyani vawuliwa vaku vakujihinisa lepi kulya chakulya?”
Then drew nigh to him the disciples of Juchanon, and said, Why do we and the Pharishee fast much, and thy disciples fast not?
15 Yesu akayangula, “Wu, vandu vevagongoliwi kumselebuko wa pandowa yihotoleka vatama ngolongondi kuni vavi pamonga na mkolo ndowa? Lepi, nambu lwalabwela lukumbi lwa mkolo ndowa kuwusiwa, lwenulo ndi lukumbi lwavene kujihinisa kulya chakulya.”
Jeshu said to them, Neither can the sons of the marriage-chamber fast while the bridegroom is with them: but the days are coming when the bridegroom shall be taken up from them, and then shall they fast.
16 “Vandu vitota lepi chilaka cha nyula ya mupya munyula ya lindimula. Muni chilaka chenicho yati chipapula neju nyula lindimula na pandu pala yati piyonjokeseka neju kupapuka.
No man inserteth a piece of new cloth upon an old garment, lest he should take away its fulness from that garment, and the rent be greater.
17 Vandu nakusopa divayi ya mupya muchihaku cha chikumba chechilali. Ngati vasopii muchihaku cha chikumba chechilali yati chibayuka na divayi yati yiyitika. Nambu vandu visopa divayi ya mupya muchihaku cha chikumba cha mupya. Na vyoha, vihaku na divayi yati visindimala bwina.”
Neither do they pour new wine into old bottles, that the bottles may not be broken, and the wine be spilled, and the bottles perish. But they pour new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.
18 Yesu peavi akona angamala kujova malovi ago, chilongosi mmonga Myawudi ambwelili, akamfugamila na kujova, “Msikana wangu afwili hinu. Nambu chondi tihamba ukamvikila mawoko gaku yati itama kangi.”
WHILE he spake these words with them, a certain chief came, drew near, worshipped him, and said, My daughter is now dead; but come, lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live!
19 Yesu akayima na kumlanda na vawuliwa vaki vakamlanda.
And Jeshu arose, with his disciples, and went after him.
20 Mau mmonga, avi na utamu wa kuhuma ngasi lukumbi lwa miyaka kumi na yivili, amlandili Yesu mumbele, na kupamisa lugunyilu lwa nyula yaki.
And, behold, a woman whose blood had flowed twelve years, came behind him, and touched the edge of his vestment.
21 Akitili chenicho ndava ya aholalili mumtima waki kuvya, “Nakapamisa ndu nyula yaki, yati nilama.”
For she was saying within herself, If I touch but his garment, I shall be healed.
22 Yesu ang'anamwiki na kumlola akamjovela, “Msikana wangu, kangamala mtima kusadika kwaku kukulamisi.” Mau yula akalama lukumbi lulalula.
But Jeshu turned and seeth her, and said to her, Be comforted, my daughter, thy faith hath saved thee. And the woman was healed from that very hour.
23 Yesu ayingili munyumba ya chilongosi yula na peavawene vabeta chitolilo na msambi wa vandu, vivembeneka na kugalawuka,
And Jeshu came to the ruler's house, and saw the minstrels and the crowds which were making a tumult.
24 avajovili vandu vala “Muwuka pandu apa! Msikana akona mumi, agonili ndu.” Vene vamkamheka.
And he said to them, Retire; for the damsel is not dead, but asleep. And they laughed at him.
25 Hinu msambi wa vandu pavawukili, Yesu akayingila mugati na kumkamula msikana yula chiwoko, na msikana yula akayima.
And when he had put forth the crowds, he entered, and took her by the hand; and the damsel arose.
26 Malovi ago gadandasiki neju pamulima wula woha.
And the rumour of this went forth through all that land.
27 Yesu akawuka pandu penapo, na peavi mukuhamba, vangalola vavili vamlandili na kuywanga, “Mwana wa Daudi utihengela lipyana!”
AND when Jeshu had passed thence, two blind men clave to him, and besought him, and said, Have compassion on us, Son of David!
28 Yesu peayingili munyumba, vangalola vala vamhambili namwene avakotili, “Wu, mwisadika kuvya nihotola kuvalamisa?” Vene vakayangula, “Ena, Bambu.”
And when he had come into the house, these blind men were brought to him. Jeshu saith to them, Believe you that I am able to do this? They say to him, Yes, our Lord!
29 Penapo Yesu akavapamisi mumihu gavi na kujova, “Ndi, gavyai mewa kwa nyenye ngati chemwisadika!”
Then he touched their eyes, and said, As you believe be it to you.
30 Mihu gavi gadindwiki. Namwene Yesu akavabesa neju, “Mkoto kumjovela mundu yeyoha lijambu lila.”
And immediately their eyes were opened. And Jeshu forbad them and said, Beware lest any man know.
31 Nambu vene vawukili na kugadandaula malovi ga Yesu pamulima wula woha.
But they went forth and spread the report of it through all that land.
32 Vandu pavawukili, vandu vangi vamletili Yesu mundu mmonga ngajova ndava ya kutalaliwa na mzuka.
And when Jeshu went forth, they brought to him a dumb person in whom was a demon.
33 Bahapo mzuka wula pawavingiwi, mundu yula akatumbula kujova kavili. Vandu voha vakakangasa na kujova “Lijambu ngati lenili kawaka peliwonekini pa Isilaeli!”
And when the demon had gone out, the dumb spake; and the multitudes were astonished, and said, Never was it thus seen in Isroel.
34 Nambu Vafalisayu vakajova, “Akuyivinga mizuka kwa makakala ga mkulu wa mizuka.”
But the Pharishee said, By the chief of the devils he casteth out devils.
35 Yesu avi mukugenda mumiji na muhijiji yoha, awulayi munyumba za kukonganekela Vayawudi. Ikokosa Lilovi la Bwina la unkosi wa Chapanga, na kuvalamisa matamu gavi na kuvawusila ng'ani zavi.
And Jeshu itinerated in all their cities and villages, and taught in their assemblies, and preached the gospel of the kingdom, and healed all diseases and all pains.
36 Hinu, peauwene msambi wa vandu, avahengili lipyana ndava vatotokili neju changali utangatila, ndi vavi na mtahu ngati mambelele gangali mdimaji.
BUT when Jeshu saw the multitudes, he had compassion upon them, because they fainted and were dispersed as sheep that had no shepherd;
37 Kangi akavajovela vawuliwa vaki, “Mabenu gamahele, nambu vabenaji vadebe.
and said to his disciples, The harvest is great, and the labourers few.
38 Hinu muyupa mkolo mabenu gaki avatuma vanalihengu vabena mabenu gaki.”
Ask, therefore, from the Lord of the harvest, that he would thrust forth labourers into his harvest.
