Mariku 11
1 Pawaweriti wapakwegera na Yerusalemu wasokiti Betifagi na Betaniya, pakwegera na Lugongu lwa Mizeyituni, palii kawatuma wawili wa wafundwa wakuwi wawalongoleri,
Now when they were approaching Jerusalem, near Bethphage and Bethany, at the Mount of Olives,
2 kawagambira, “Mgendi mushijiji sha kulongolu kwenu. Payiwera mwakwingira amu, hamwoni mwana gwa punda wamtawa, mweni kenitenderwi na muntu. Mumyopoli mumjegi.
Jesus sent two of his disciples and told them. "Go to that village in front of you, and immediately on entering it you will find a colt tied, upon which no man has ever sat; untie him and bring him here.
3 Handa muntu pakawakosiya, ‘Mbona mtenda hangu?’ Mumgambiri, ‘Mtuwa kamfira na hakamwuziyi panu ulavinu.’”
And if any man asks you, ‘Why are you doing that?" answer, ‘The Lord has need of him, and he will immediately send him back.’"
4 Su wagenda, wamwona mwana gwa punda mumbwega munjira wamtawa mumlyangu. Pawaweriti wankumyopola,
So they went and found a colt tied outside a door, in the open street, and untied it.
5 wantu wamu waweriti wagoloka palii wawakosiya, “Mwankumyopola punda ayu gwa shishi?”
And some of the bystanders began to say to them, "What are you trying to do, untying that colt?"
6 Wafundwa wawankula ntambu Yesu yakawagambiriti, nawomberi wawaleka wagendi zawu.
So they answered them just as Jesus had told them, and they let them take it.
7 Wamjegiriti Yesu mwana punda ayu. Wayazalira nguwu zawu pampindi pa mwana punda ulii na Yesu kakwena kalivaga pampindi pakuwi.
Then they brought the colt to Jesus, and when they had thrown cloaks upon it, Jesus seated himself on it.
8 Wantu wavuwa wayazalira nguwu zawu munjira, wamonga wayazalira miputira ya mitera yawayidumuliti mumalambu.
Then many spread their cloaks on the road, and others, soft leafy branches, which they had cut from the fields;
9 Wantu woseri yawalongoleriti na wafatiti, wanjiti kubotanga, “Kazyumwi Mlungu! Katekelerwi uliya yakiza kwa litawu lya Mtuwa!
and those who went before him and those who came after kept shouting. "Hosanna! Blessed be He who comes in the name of the Lord!
10 Utekelerwi ufalumi wiza wa tati gwetu Dawudi. Kazyumwi Mlungu gwa kumpindi nentu!”
Blessed be the coming kingdom of our father David! Hosanna, in the highest!"
11 Yesu kingiriti lushi lwa Yerusalemu, kagenda Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu, Kalola kila shintu weri. Kumbiti toziya iweriti kala pashimii, kagenda Betaniya pamuhera na wafundwa wakuwi lilongu na wawili.
Then he entered Jerusalem and went into the Temple, and after he had looked around at everything, as the hour was now late, he went out to Bethany with the Twelve.
12 Shirawu yakuwi, pawaweriti wankulawa Betaniya, Yesu kaniti njala.
The next day after leaving Bethany he was hungry,
13 Su kwa kutali kaguwona mkuyu gwana mihamba ivuwa. Kagugendera kawoni handa guweriti na libwajubwaju loseri. Pakasokiti, kaguwoniti gwahera libwajubwaju lyoseri ira mihamba hera, toziya iweriti ndiri shipindi sha mabwajubwaju.
and seeing a fig tree in the distance full of leaves, he came to see if he could find anything on it, and found on it nothing but leaves (for it was not the time of figs).
14 Panu Yesu kagugambira mkuyu, “Kwanjira leru ata mashaka gangalikupera muntu yoseri nakaliya mabwajubwaju kwaku!” Na wafundwa wakuwi wapikiniriti visoweru avi. (aiōn g165)
So, addressing the tree, he said, "Let no man ever more eat fruit from you." And the disciples heard it. (aiōn g165)
15 Su wasokiti Yerusalemu. Yesu kingira Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu kanja kuwawinga kunja wantu waweriti wankuwuza na kuhemera vintu. Kazigalambuziya meza zawaweriti wankuvunjira mpiya na vigoda vya walii yawaweriti wankuwuza wang'unda.
Presently they reached Jerusalem, and, after entering the Temple courts, Jesus began to drive out those who were buying and selling there, and to upset the tables of the money-changers, and the stalls of those who sold doves,
16 Kamlekeziyiti ndiri muntu yoseri kupitira pamlangu gwa Numba nkulu ya Mlungu pakatola shintu.
and he would not allow any one to carry a vessel through the Temple courts, Then he began to teach.
17 Shakapanu kawafunda, “Ilembwa Mumalembu Mananagala, ‘Mlungu kalonga Numba yangu hawayishemi Numba ya kumuluwa Mlungu kwa maisi goseri!’ Kumbiti muyitenda kuwera mpanga ya wakwepula!”
"Is it not written," he said, "My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations? But you have made it a den of robbers."
18 Watambika wakulu na wafunda wa Malagaliru pawapikaniriti aga, wanjiti kusakula njira ya kumlaga. Kumbiti wamtiriti toziya lipinga lya wantu lilikangashiti na mafundu gakuwi.
The chief priests and the Scribes heard this, and they began to seek means of destroying him; for they were afraid of him because all the crowd were greatly struck with his teaching.
19 Paiweriti pashimii, Yesu na wafundwa wakuwi wawukiti mlushi.
Now every evening he used to go outside the city;
20 Shirawu yakuwi mandawira pee, pawaweriti wankupita, waguwoniti mkuyu guliya gunyala goseri, kwanjira kumishigira mpaka kumihamba
and as they (he and his disciples) were passing along in the morning, they saw the fig tree already withered from the root.
21 Peteru kalihola visoweru vyakatakuliti Yesu, kamgambira, “Mfunda gulori! Mkuyu gulii gwagugulapiriti, gunyala!”
Then Peter remembered, and exclaimed, "Look, Rabbi, the fig tree which you cursed is withered up."
22 Yesu kawagambira, “Mumjimiri Mlungu.”
"Take hold on God’s faithfulness," said Jesus to them in reply.
23 “Nukugambirani nakaka, muntu pakalugambira lugongu alu, ‘Gutupuki gukalyasi mulitanda,’ pota na lyoga mumoyu mwakuwi, kumbiti kajimira kuwera vitwatira vyoseri vyakatakula vinyawiki, havimnyawikili.
"In solemn truth I tell you that if any one shall say to this mountain, ‘Up and hurl yourself into the sea!’ and shall not doubt in his heart, but on the contrary shall believe that what he says will happen, it will be granted him.
24 Hangu nukugambirani, pamumluwa Mlungu shintu shoseri, mjimiri handa mshiyanka kala, namwenga hamshiyanki shintu shoseri shamuluwiti.
That is why I am telling you that whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it shall be yours.
25 Pamgoloka kumluwa Mlungu, gumlekiziyi kila muntu yakakutenderani vidoda, su Tati gwenu kakumpindi hakawalekiziyi mwenga vidoda vyenu.”
And whenever you stand up to pray, forgive, if you have anything against any one, that so your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses."
26 Kumbiti handa mwenga mulekiziya ndiri, ama Tati gwenu gwa kumpindi hapeni kawalekizii mwenga vidoda vyenu.
27 Su wasoka kayi Yerusalemu. Yesu pakaweriti kankugendagenda Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu, watambika wakulu na wafunda wa malagaliru na wazewi wamgendiriti,
Once more they came into Jerusalem; and as he was walking in the Temple courts, there came to him the high priests and Scribes and elders and asked him.
28 wamkosiya, “Gwankutenda vitwatira avi kwa ukulu gaa? Gani yakakupiti ukulu wa kutenda vitwatira avi?”
"By what authority do you do these things? or who gave you this authority to do these things?"
29 Kumbiti Yesu kawagambira, “Hanuwakosiyani shintu shimu, pamnankula, naneni vira hanuwagambirani kwa ukulu gaa nankutenda vitwatira avi.
"And I will put one question to you," replied Jesus. "Answer this, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.
30 Hashi, uwezu wa Yohani wa kubatiza ulawa kumpindi kwa Mlungu ama ulawa kwa wantu? Munankuli.”
The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men? Answer me!"
31 Wanja kulitakuziya, “Patutakula, ‘Ulawiti kumpindi kwa Mlungu,’ hakatukosiyi, su mbona munjimira ndiri?”
Then they began arguing with one another. "If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will ask, ‘Why then did you not believe him?"
32 “Hapeni tutakuli ulawa kwa wantu, patutakula hangu tutira lipinga lya wantu toziya woseri wajimiriti handa Yohani kaweriti mbuyi gwa Mlungu nakaka.”
On the other hand, if we say, ‘From men’!"They were afraid, however, of the people, for every one held that Johnhad been really a prophet.
33 Su, wamwankula Yesu, “Twenga tuvimana ndiri.” Yesu kawagambira, “Naneni vira hapeni nuwagambiri ntenda vitwatira avi kwa uwezu wa gaa.”
So their answer to Jesus was, "We do not know." "Neither will I tell you," said Jesus, "by what authority I do these things."
