< Matayu 13 >
1 Lishaka liraa lilii Yesu kalawiti mnumba ilii na kugenda kumpeku kulitanda, su kalivaga kanja kufunda.
And in that day Jesus, having gone forth from the house, was sitting by the sea,
2 Lipinga likulu lya wantu limzingiti, su Yesu kakwena mumtumbwi na kalivaga na wantu waweriti wagolokiti pampeku pa litanda.
and gathered together to Him were many multitudes, so that He having gone into the boat sat down, and all the multitude on the beach stood,
3 Yesu katakuliti kwa mifanu kuwagambira vitwatira vivuwa. “Kuweriti na muntu yakagenditi kukweta mbeyu.
and He spoke to them many things in allegories, saying, “Behold, the sower went forth to sow,
4 Pakaweriti kankukweta mbeyu mulirambu, mbeyu zimonga zitulukiriti munjira na wampongu wiziti na waziliya.
and in his sowing, some indeed fell by the way, and the birds having come, devoured them,
5 Zimonga zitulukiti palitalawu lyana litapaka lididini. Zimera kanongola toziya litapaka ligenditi pasi ndiri.
and others fell on the rocky places where they did not have much earth, and immediately they sprang forth, through having no depth of earth,
6 Kumbiti mshenji paguwaliti gulunguziya vimeru vyavimeriti toziya mishigira yakuwi igenditi ndiri pasi, su vimeru viyuma.
and the sun having risen they were scorched, and through having no root, they withered,
7 Mbeyu zimonga zitulukiriti pa misontu, pazimera na kukula misontu izibabanika.
and others fell on the thorns, and the thorns came up and choked them,
8 Kumbiti mbeyu zimonga zitulukiriti mulitapaka liherepa zimera na zikula na kulera mbeyu zivuwa zya zilii zawaziyaliti, zimonga mala miya na zimonga malongu sita na zimonga malongu matatu.”
and others fell on the good ground, and were giving fruit, some indeed a hundredfold, and some sixty, and some thirty.
9 Na Yesu kamalalira kwa kulonga, “Yakana makutu kapikaniri!”
He who is having ears to hear—let him hear.”
10 Shakapanu wafundwa wamgenderiti Yesu na wamkosiya, “Iwera hashi gutakula kwa mifanu kwa wantu?”
And the disciples having come near, said to Him, “Why do You speak to them in allegories?”
11 Yesu kawankula, “Mwenga mtelekerwa kuvimana vintu vya bada ya ufalumi wa kumpindi kumbiti womberi wavimana ndiri.
And He answering said to them that, “To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of the heavens, and to these it has not been given,
12 Kwa muntu yoseri yakawera na shintu hawamwongeri, kumbiti muntu yakahera shintu ata shilii shididini shakawera nashi hawampoki.
for whoever has, it will be given to him, and he will have overabundance, and whoever has not, even that which he has will be taken from him.
13 Toziya ntakula nawomberi kwa mifanu ndo toziya waloli kumbiti hapeni wawoni na wapikiniri kumbiti hapeni werewi ama kuvimana.
Because of this, in allegories I speak to them, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor understand,
14 Su gatimii galii gakatungiti Isaya mbuyi gwa Mlungu gatendeki, ‘Wantu awa hawapikiniri na kupikinira, kumbiti hapeni welewi, Womberi hawaloli na kulola, kumbiti hapeni wawoni,
and fulfilled on them is the prophecy of Isaiah that says, With hearing you will hear, and you will not understand, and seeing you will see, and you will not perceive,
15 Toziya mahala ga wantu awa gazizitika, Waleka kupikinira mumakutu mwawu Wagonyiziya masu gawu. Handa masu gawu megaloli, Makutu gawu megapikiniri, Mahala gawu megavimani, Na womberi wangambuyiri neni, kalonga Mlungu, Na neni meniwaponiziyi.’”
for the heart of this people was made obtuse, and with the ears they barely heard, and they closed their eyes, lest they might see with the eyes, and might hear with the ears, and understand with the heart, and turn back, and I might heal them.
16 Yesu katakula kayi, “Mbaka mwenga toziya masu genu gawona na makutu genu gapikanira.
And blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear,
17 Nuwagambirani kuwera wambuyi wavuwa wa Mlungu na wantu wavuwa waheri wafiriti nentu kuwona vilii vyamuviwona, kumbiti wasinda na kupikinira shilii shampikinira, kumbiti wasinda.”
for truly I say to you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see that which you look on, and they did not see, and to hear that which you hear, and they did not hear.
18 “Su mwenga mpikaniri mana ya mfanu agu gwa mkweta.
You, therefore, hear the allegory of the sower:
19 Wantu woseri yawapikanira ujumbi kuusu Ufalumi kumbiti werewa ndiri, walifana gambira mbeyu zyazitulukiriti panjira. Shetani kiza na kuwusiya shilii shawashikwetiti mumoyu mwawu.
Everyone hearing the word of the kingdom, and not understanding—the evil one comes, and snatches that which has been sown in his heart; this is that sown by the way.
20 Mbeyu zyazitulukiriti mumabuwi ndo wantu woseri yawauwanka ujumbi kwa nemeru pawalipikanira.
And that sown on the rocky places, this is he who is hearing the word, and immediately with joy is receiving it,
21 Kumbiti limwingira ndiri na kuwera na mshigira mngati mwakuwi na wendereya ndiri patali. Su ntabika na tabu paviza toziya ya ujumbi, womberi waleka palaa palii.
and he has no root in himself, but is temporary, and persecution or tribulation having happened because of the word, immediately he is stumbled.
22 Mbeyu zyazitulukiriti mumitera ya misontu ndo wantu woseri yawaupikanira ujumbi, kumbiti lyoga kuusu makaliru gakuwi na zisitarehi za ulunda ubabanika ujumbi, na womberi hapeni waleri mabwajubwaju. (aiōn )
And that sown toward the thorns, this is he who is hearing the word, and the anxiety of this age, and the deceitfulness of the riches, chokes the word, and it becomes unfruitful. (aiōn )
23 Na mbeyu zawazikwetiti mulitapaka lyana mbotu ndo wantu woseri yawaupikanira ujumbi na kwelewa, na ujumbi ulera zivuwa za zilii yawaziyaliti, wamonga walera miya na wamonga malongu sita na wamonga malongu matatu.”
And that sown on the good ground: this is he who is hearing the word, and is understanding, who indeed bears fruit, and makes, some indeed a hundredfold, and some sixty, and some thirty.”
24 Yesu kawagambira wantu mfanu gwingi, Ufalumi wa kumpindi ulifana ntambu ayi. Muntu yumu kakwetiti mbeyu ziherepa mulirambu lyakuwi.
Another allegory He set before them, saying, “The kingdom of the heavens was likened to a man sowing good seed in his field,
25 Pashiru pamu wantu pawagonjiti, mngondu gwakuwi kiziti na kukweta magugu pakati pa nganu na kagenda zakuwi.
and while men are sleeping, his enemy came and sowed darnel in the midst of the wheat, and went away,
26 Shipindi mbeyu za nganu pazimeriti na kwanja kupunda na magugu ganja kuwoneka.
and when the herb sprang up, and yielded fruit, then appeared also the darnel.
27 Ntumintumi ulii yakawera na lirambu kamgendera na kumgambira, “Mtuwa gwenga gukwetiti mbeyu ziherepa mulirambu lyaku, hashi, vinu magugu aga galawa koshi?”
And the servants of the householder, having come near, said to him, Lord, did you not sow good seed in your field? From where then does it have the darnel?
28 Yakana lirambu kawankula, “Mngondu ndo yakatenditi hangu. Wantumintumi wamkosiya, ‘Hashi, gufira tugendi twakagatupuli magugu?’
And he says to them, A man, an enemy, did this; and the servants said to him, Will you, then, [that] having gone away we may gather it up?
29 Yomberi kawankula, ‘Ndala, toziya pamjonjonira magugu hamtupuli na nganu.
And he said, No, lest—gathering up the darnel—you root up with it the wheat;
30 Mleki magugu na nganu gakuli pamuhera mpaka shipindi sha kubenanga. Shakapanu hanuwagambiri watenda lihengu watupuli kwanja magugu na kugatawa mumatita na kugalunguziya. Kumbiti nganu muijojiniri na muituli muluhanja lwangu.’”
permit both to grow together until the harvest, and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather up first the darnel, and bind it in bundles, to burn it, and the wheat gather up into my storehouse.”
31 Yesu kawagambira wantu mfanu gwingi, “Ufalumi wa kumpindi ulifana hangu. Muntu yumu katoliti mbeyu ndidini nentu na kagenditi kukweta mulirambu lyakuwi.
Another allegory He set before them, saying, “The kingdom of the heavens is like to a grain of mustard, which a man having taken, sowed in his field,
32 Mbeyu yeni iweriti ndidini nentu kuliku mbeyu zoseri, kumbiti payimeriti na kukula iwera mtera mkulu kuliku vyoseri vyavimeriti mulirambu mpaka wampongu wiza na kunyawa vitukulu vyawu mumitambi yakuwi.”
which less, indeed, is than all the seeds, but when it may be grown, is greatest of the herbs, and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the sky come and rest in its branches.”
33 Yesu kawagambira mfanu gwingi, “Ufalumi wa kumpindi ulifana hangu. Mdala yumu katoliti simika na kuhanganyiya pamuhera na vipimu vitatu vya ubumu, su ubumu woseri ututumuka.”
Another allegory He spoke to them: “The kingdom of the heavens is like to leaven, which a woman having taken, hid in three measures of meal, until the whole was leavened.”
34 Yesu kawagambiriti wantu goseri aga kwa mifanu. Kawagambira ndiri shintu shoseri pota kutakula mifanu,
All these things Jesus spoke in allegories to the multitudes, and without an allegory He was not speaking to them,
35 katenditi hangu su vyavitakulitwi na mbuyi gwa Mlungu vitendeki, “Hantakuli kwa mfanu panyowera na womberi, Hanuwagambiri vitwatira vyavimanika ndiri kwanjira kunyawa pasi panu.”
that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through the prophet, saying, “I will open in allegories My mouth, I will utter things having been hidden from the foundation of the world.”
36 Yesu pakalilekiti lipinga lya wantu, kingira mnumba na wafundwa wakuwi wamgendera na wamkosiya, “Hashi, mfanu agu gutakula shishi?”
Then having let away the multitudes, Jesus came into the house, and His disciples came near to Him, saying, “Explain to us the allegory of the darnel of the field.”
37 Yesu kawankula, “Muntu yakakwetiti mbeyu ndo Mwana gwa Muntu,
And He answering said to them, “He who is sowing the good seed is the Son of Man,
38 na lirambu ndo pasipanu. Na mbeyu iherepa ndo wantu wa Ufalumi wa Mlungu. Magugu ndo wantu yawatenda vitwatira vya Shetani.
and the field is the world, and the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom, and the darnel are the sons of the evil one,
39 Mngondu yakakwetiti magugu ndo Shetani. Na shipindi sha kubenanga ndo upeleru wa pasipanu na watenda lihengu ndo wantumintumi wa kumpindi wa Mlungu. (aiōn )
and the enemy who sowed them is the Devil, and the harvest is [the] full end of the age, and the reapers are messengers. (aiōn )
40 Magugu ntambu yawagajojinira na kugalunguziya pamotu, ndo ntambu hayilawiri kupelera kwa pasipanu. (aiōn )
As, then, the darnel is gathered up, and is burned with fire, so will it be in the full end of this age; (aiōn )
41 Mwana gwa Muntu hakawatumi wantumintumi wa kumpindi wakuwi kulawa Muufalumi wakuwi, woseri walii yawatenda wantu watendi vidoda na wantu woseri yawatenda vitwatira vidoda,
the Son of Man will send forth His messengers, and they will gather up out of His kingdom all the stumbling-blocks, and those doing the lawlessness,
42 hawawawasili mumotu gwa Jehanamu na aku hawalili na kugaya menu. ()
and will cast them into the furnace of the fire; there will be the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth.
43 Shapanu wantu yawamfiriziya Mlungu hawang'eleng'eti gambira mshenji Muufalumi wa Tati gwawu. Handa muwera na makutu, mpikaniri!
Then will the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who is having ears to hear—let him hear.
44 “Ufalumi wa kumpindi ulifana ntambu ayi. Muntu yumu kawoniti ulunda yaulififiti mulirambu. Su yomberi kanemeleriti nentu, kawufifiti kayi na kagenditi kuwuza vyoseri vyakawera navi na kawuyiti kuhemera lirambu lilii.”
Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like to treasure hid in the field, which a man having found, hid, and from his joy goes, and all, as much as he has, he sells, and buys that field.
45 “Viraa, Ufalumi wa kumpindi ulifana hangu. Muntu yumu kaweriti kankusakula lulu iherepa,
Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like to a man, a merchant, seeking good pearls,
46 na pakayiwoniti lulu yimu inamana nentu nkulu, kagenditi kuwuza vyoseri vyakaweriti navi na kuhemera lulu ilii.”
who having found one pearl of great price, having gone away, has sold all, as much as he had, and bought it.
47 “Viraa Ufalumi wa kumpindi ulifana hangu. Walowa wasomba wamu watandira wavu wawu mulitanda na walowa wasomba wa ntambu zoseri.
Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like to a net that was cast into the sea, and gathered together of every kind,
48 Wavu pauweriti na wasomba nduu, wawunika pampeku pa litanda na kulivaga pasi kuwasyagula wasomba, wasomba waherepa wawatula mumajamanda gawu na wasomba wadoda wawasa.
which, when it was filled, having drawn up again on the beach, and having sat down, they gathered the good into vessels, and the bad they cast out,
49 Ntambu ayi hayiweri lishaka lya upeleru, shipindi ashi wantumintumi wa kumpindi wa Mlungu hawawalaviyi wantu yawatenda vidoda kulawa kwa wantu waheri (aiōn )
so will it be in the full end of the age, the messengers will come forth and separate the evil out of the midst of the righteous, (aiōn )
50 na hawawasili mumotu gwa Jehanamu, su womberi hawalili na kugayagaya menu gawu.” ()
and will cast them into the furnace of the fire; there will be the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth.”
51 Yesu kawakosiya, “Hashi, mwerewa vitwatira avi?” Wamwankula, “Yina.”
Jesus says to them, “Did you understand all these?” They say to Him, “Yes, Lord.”
52 Su yomberi kawagambira, “Kila mfunda gwa Malagaliru yakawera mfundwa Muufalumi wa kumpindi kalifana gambira muntu yakana numba yakatoliti vintu vya makashu na vya syayi muluwanja lya kutulila vintu.”
And He said to them, “Because of this, every scribe having been discipled in regard to the kingdom of the heavens is like to a man, a householder, who brings forth out of his treasure things new and old.”
53 Yesu pakamalaliti kuwagambira mifanu ayi, kawukiti pahala palii
And it came to pass, when Jesus finished these allegories, He removed from there,
54 na kagenditi kushijiji kwakuwi. Aku kafunditi wantu mnumba ya Mlungu na woseri yawampikaniriti walikangashiti. Womberi wakosiya, “Hashi, kapatiti koshi luhala alu? Hashi kapata koshi mauzauza aga?
and having come to His own country, He was teaching them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished, and were saying, “From where to this One this wisdom and the mighty works?
55 Hashi, ayu mwana ndiri gwa msongola vintu na mawu gwakuwi wamshema Mariya na walongu wakuwi ashina Yakobu na Yosefu na Simoni na Yuda?
Is this not the carpenter’s Son? Is His mother not called Mary, and His brothers James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?
56 Na wadada wakuwi walikala ndiri panu? Hashi, kagapata koshi goseri aga?”
And His sisters—are they not all with us? From where, then, to this One all these?”
57 Su womberi wamlema Yesu. Yesu kawagambira, “Mbuyi gwa Mlungu hapeni kamjimiri mlushi mwakuwi na ukaya kwakuwi, kumbiti lushi zimonga wamjimira.”
And they were stumbled at Him. And Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his own country, and in his own house”:
58 Toziya womberi wahera moyu, su hapeni katendi mauzauza gavuwa palii.
and He did not do many mighty works there, because of their unbelief.
