Luka 20
1 Lishaka limu Yesu kaweriti kankuwafunda wantu Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu na kuvibwera visoweru viwagira, watambika wakulu na wafunda wa Malagaliru, pamuhera na wazewi, wiziti
And it came about on one of those days, when he was teaching the people in the Temple and preaching the good news,
2 na wamgambira, “Gutugambiri, gutenda vintu vyoseri avi kwa uwezu wa gaa? Ndo gaa yakakupiti uwezu wa kutenda aga?”
That the chief priests and the scribes and the rulers of the people came to him and said, Make clear to us by what authority you do these things and who gave you this authority.
3 Yesu kawankula, “Vinu naneni hanuwakosiyi. Mung'ambiri,
And in answer he said to them, I will put a question to you, and do you give me an answer:
4 uwezu wa kubatiza wa Yohani Mbatiza ulawiti kumpindi ama ulawiti kwa wantu?”
The baptism of John, was it from heaven or of men?
5 Womberi wanjiti kuligambirana weni, “Hatulongi hashi? Patulonga, ‘Ulawiti kumpindi,’ yomberi hakatakuli, ‘Iwera hashi munjimira ndiri?’
And they said among themselves, If we say, From heaven; he will say, Why did you not have faith in him?
6 Kumbiti patulonga, ‘Ulawa kwa wantu,’ lipinga lyoseri lya wantu panu hawatugumi mabuhi, toziya woseri wavimaniti kuwera Yohani kaweriti mbuyi gwa Mlungu.”
But if we say, Of men; we will be stoned by the people, for they are certain that John was a prophet.
7 Su wamwankula, “Tuvimana ndiri uwezu wakuwi ulawiti koshi.”
And they made answer that they had no idea where it came from.
8 Yesu kawagambira, “Vira neni hapeni nuwagambirani ntenda vitwatira avi kwa uwezu wa gaa.”
And Jesus said, And I will not make clear to you by what authority I do these things.
9 Yesu kawagambiriti wantu mfanu agu, “Kweniti na muntu yakayaliti mizyabibu mulirambu, kawazimila wakulima na mweni kagenditi mwanja, kalikaliti kulii shipindi shivuwa.
And he gave the people this story: A man made a vine-garden and gave the use of it to some field-workers and went into another country for a long time.
10 Shipindi sha kubenanga zyabibu shisokiti, kamtumiti mmanda kagendi kwa wakulima, kakatoli seemu ya mabenangu ga lirambu lya mizyabibu. Kumbiti wakulima wamkomanga ntumintumi ulii na wamuwuziya ukaya mawoku hera.
And at the right time he sent a servant to the workers to get part of the fruit from the vines; but the workmen gave him blows and sent him away with nothing.
11 Su kamtumiti ntumintumi gwingi, kumbiti wakulima walii wamkoma kayi na kumtendera vidoda, na wamwuziya ukaya mawoku hera.
And he sent another servant, and they gave blows to him in the same way, and put shame on him, and sent him away with nothing.
12 Kamtumiti ntumintumi gwa tatu, wakulima wamkoma mpaka kawera na vironda, shakapanu wamuwingawinga.
And he sent a third, and they gave him wounds and put him out.
13 Mweni kana lirambu kalikosiya, ‘Hantendi hashi? Hanumtumi mwana gwangu yanumfira, neni wera na unakaka hawamupanani ligoya!’
And the lord of the garden said, What am I to do? I will send my dearly loved son; they may give respect to him.
14 Kumbiti wakulima walii pawamwoniti, wanja kuligambira, ‘Ayu ndo mhala gwakuwi. Tumlagi, uhala wakuwi hawuweri wa twenga!’
But when the workmen saw him, they said to one another, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property: let us put him to death and the heritage will be ours.
15 Su wamlaviya kunja kulirambu, wamlaga.” Yesu kawakosiya, “Yakana lirambu ulii hakawatendi hashi wakulima walii?
And driving him out of the garden they put him to death. Now what will the lord do to these workmen?
16 Hakizi kuwalaga wakulima woseri, na hakawapanani wakulima wamonga lirambu lilii lya mizyabibu.” Wantu pawapikaniriti, watakula, “Iwezekana ndiri!”
He will come and put them to destruction and give the garden to others. And when he said this, they said, May it not be so.
17 Yesu kawaloliti na kukosiya, “Su Malembu aga Mananagala gana mana gaa? ‘Libuwi lyawalilemiti wanyawa wa numba, vinu ligalambuka na liwera libuwi lyaliwera na mana nentu kuliku goseri.’
But he, looking on them, said, Is it not in the Writings, The stone which the builders put on one side, the same has become the chief stone of the building?
18 Muntu yoseri pakaguwa pampindi pa libuwi hakamegeki vipandi vipandi, na libuwi palimtulukira muntu yoseri, halimtendi.”
Everyone falling on that stone will be broken, but the man on whom the stone comes down will be crushed to dust.
19 Wafunda wa Malagaliru na watambika wakulu wafiriti kumbata, toziya wavimaniti mfanu agu guweriti kankuwatakula womberi, kumbiti palii wawatiriti wantu.
And the chief priests and the scribes made attempts to get their hands on him in that very hour; and they were in fear of the people, for they saw that he had made up this story against them.
20 Su waweriti wankusakula shipindi shifaa. Wawapanani wantu wamu mpiya walitendi waheri, su wawatuma wagendi kumjera Yesu kwa kumkosiya, su wawezi kumbata na kumjega kwa wakulu wa serikali ya Rumi.
And they kept watch on him, and sent out secret representatives, who were acting the part of good men, in order that they might get something from his words, on account of which they might give him up to the government and into the power of the ruler.
21 Walolalo walii wamgambira Yesu, “mfunda, tuvimana ntambu yagutakula na kufunda vitwatira vya nakaka. Tuvimana gwenga gwahera ubagula kwa muntu yoseri ulii, kumbiti gwenga gufunda unakaka wa vintu vyakafira Mlungu.
And they put a question to him, saying, Master, we are certain that your teaching and your words are right, and that you have no respect for a man's position, but you are teaching the true way of God:
22 Gutugambiri, handa vya halali ama vyahalali ndiri kulipa kodi kwa Kaisari!”
Is it right for us to make payment of taxes to Caesar or not?
23 Kumbiti Yesu kavimaniti shawafira na kawagambira,
But he saw through their trick and said to them,
24 “Mnanguziyi mpiya. Sheni sha mumpiya sha gaa na malembu yagalembwa mumpiya?” Wamwankula, “vya Kaisari.”
Let me see a penny. Whose image and name are on it? And they said, Caesar's.
25 Su Yesu kawagambira, “Su vya Kaisari mpanani Kaisari na vya Mlungu mpanani Mlungu.”
And he said, Then give to Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and to God the things which are God's.
26 Waweza ndiri kumbata kwa shisoweru shoseri palii palongolu pa wantu, su wanyamaliti, pawalikangasha ntambu yakawankuliti.
And they were not able to get anything from these words before the people: but they were full of wonder at his answer, and said nothing.
27 Shakapanu Masadukayu wamu, yawalongaga wantu yawahowa hapeni wazyuki, wamwiziriti Yesu na kulonga,
And some of the Sadducees came to him, who say that there is no coming back from the dead; and they said to him,
28 “mfunda, Musa katulembiriti Lilagaliru ali, ‘Muntu pakahowa na kumleka mdala yakahera mwana, mpaka mlongu gwakuwi kamtoli mkenja ulii su kamleleri wana mlongu gwakuwi yakahowiti.’
Master, Moses said that if a man's brother comes to his end, having a wife, but no children, his brother is to take the wife, and get a family for his brother.
29 Vinu kuweriti na walongu saba. Mkulu yakalongoleriti kumyuga kahowa pakaleka ndiri mwana.
Now there were seven brothers, and the first had a wife and came to his end, having no children;
30 Mlongu gwa pili kamuyuga mdala mkenja ulii,
And the second;
31 na mlongu gwa tatu ntambu ira, vitwatira viweriti vira virii kwa woseri saba, wahowiti pawaleka ndiri wana.
And the third took her; and in the same way, all the seven, without having any children, came to their end.
32 Upeleru wakuwi na mdala mkenja ulii kahowiti vira.
And last of all, the woman came to her end.
33 Vinu mulishaka lya wahowiti kuzyuka, mdala ulii hakaweri gwa gaa? Toziya woseri saba wamuyugiti.”
When they come back from the dead, whose wife will she be? for all the seven had her.
And Jesus said to them, The sons of this world are married and have wives; (aiōn g165)
35 kumbiti wapalu na wadala weni Mlungu hakawatangi kuwera mushipindi sha kuzyuka, hapeni wapalu wayugi wala wadala kuyugwa. (aiōn g165)
But those to whom is given the reward of the world to come, and to come back from the dead, have no wives, and are not married; (aiōn g165)
36 Hawaweri gambira wantumintumi wa kumpindi na hapeni wahowi. Womberi ndo wana wa Mlungu, toziya wazyuka kulawa kwa wahowiti.
And death has no more power over them, for they are equal to the angels, and are sons of God, being of those who will come back from the dead.
37 Kumbiti Musa kalanguziyiti weri kuwera yawahowiti hawazyuki. Mumalembu Mananagala galembitwi shakatakuliti Mtuwa ndo Mlungu gwa Aburahamu, na Mlungu gwa Isaka, na Mlungu gwa Yakobu.
But even Moses made it clear that the dead come back to life, saying, in the story of the burning thorn-tree, The Lord, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
38 Mlungu ndo gwa yawawera wakomu, na Mlungu ndiri gwa wahowiti, kwakuwi woseri walikala.”
Now he is not the God of the dead but of the living: for all men are living to him.
39 Wafunda wamu wa Malagaliru watakula, “mfunda guwankula weri!”
And some of the scribes, in answer to this, said, Master, you have said well.
40 Watakuliti hangu toziya wasinditi kumkosiya kayi makosiwu gamonga.
And they had fear of putting any more questions to him.
41 Yesu kawakosiya, “Watakula hashi kulonga Kristu kawera mwana gwa Dawudi?
And he said to them, Why do they say that the Christ is the son of David?
42 Mweni Dawudi kalemba kala mushintola sha Zaburi, ‘Mtuwa kamgambiriti Mtuwa gwangu, Gwikali kumliwu kwaneni
For David himself says in the book of Psalms, The Lord said to my Lord, Take your seat at my right hand,
43 Mpaka nuwatuli wangondu waku kuwera shiti sha kutulila magulu gaku.’
Till I put under your feet all those who are against you.
44 Dawudi kamshemiti yomberi, ‘Mtuwa.’ Hayiweri hashi Mesiya kaweri mwana gwa Dawudi?”
David then gives him the name of Lord, so how is it possible for him to be his son?
45 Yesu kawagambira wafundwa wakuwi kulongolu kwa wantu woseri,
And in the hearing of all the people he said to his disciples,
46 “Muliloleri weri kuusu wafunda wa Malagaliru, weni wafira kugendagenda pawavalira lihabiti na wafira kulamsiwa kwa ligoya pahala pa masoku, weni wasyagula kulivaga pahala pa ligoya munumba zya Mlungu, na pahala paherepa mumsambu,
Keep away from the scribes, whose pleasure it is to go about in long robes, and to have words of respect said to them in the market-places, and to take the chief seats in the Synagogues and the first places at feasts;
47 Wawagambira wakenja mpayu na kuwapoka numba zyawu na pawaluwa Mlungu luwi ntali! Azabu yawu hayiweri nkulu nentu!”
Who take the property of widows and before the eyes of men make long prayers; they will get a greater punishment.
