Matayu 20
1 “Ufalumi wa kumpindi ulifana hangu. Kuweriti na muntu yakalilawa mandawira putiputi kugenda kuwatula wantu watendi lihengu mulirambu lyakuwi lya mizyabibu.
For the Administration of Heaven will resemble the conduct of a householder, who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard.
2 Kapataniti nawomberi shibenamgongu sha lishaka limu, na kawajega wantu wamu mulirambu lyakuwi lya mizyabibu.
Having agreed with some for a denarius a-day, he sent them into his vineyard.
3 Kalawa saa tatu mandawira kagenda pahala pa soku kawawona wantu wamonga wagoloka paliya wahera lihengu.
About the third hour he went out, and seeing others unemployed in the market place,
4 Su kawagambira, ‘Mwenga mgendi mwakatendi lihengu mulirambu lya mizyabibu, neni hanuwapanani shibenamgongu.’
said to them, Go you likewise into my vineyard, and I will give you what is reasonable. Accordingly they went.
5 Su womberi wagenda. Mweni kana lirambu kawuka kayi saa sita na saa tisa palwala, katenditi ntambu iraa.
Again, about the sixth hour, and about the ninth, he went out and did the same.
6 Payiweriti pakwegera na mshenji kuzyeta pakagenditi pahala pa soku, kawawoniti wantu wamonga wankali wankugoloka paliya. Yomberi kawakosiya, ‘Iwera hashi mgoloka panu paliwala poseri pota kutenda lihengu?’
Lastly, about the eleventh hour, he went out, and finding others standing, said to them, Why do you stand here all the day doing nothing?
7 Womberi wamwankula, ‘Kwahera muntu yakatupa lihengu twenga.’ Na yomberi kawagambira, ‘Mwenga mgendi na kutenda lihengu mulirambu lyaneni lya mizyabibu.’
They answered, Because no person has hired us. He said to them, Go you also into my vineyard, and you shall receive what is reasonable.
8 “Mshenji paguzyetiti yakana lirambu kiziti na kamgambiriti mtula mpiya gwakuwi, ‘Guwashemi watenda lihengu na guwapanani vibenamgongu vyawu, gwanjiti kuwapanana yanuwajegiti muupeleru na gumaliri kwa kuwapanana walii yanuwajegiti kwanja.’
When it was night, the proprietor of the vineyard said to his steward, Call the laborers, and pay them their wages, beginning with the last, and ending with the first.
9 Wantu yawanjiti kutenda lihengu mshenji kuzyeta, gumpanani kila muntu shibenamgongu sha lishaka limu.
Then they who had been hired at the eleventh hour came, and received each a denarius.
10 Su wantu waliya yawaweriti wakwanja kwiza kutenda lihengu wiziti kutola mpiya zyawu, womberi waliholiti kuwera hawapati mpiya nentu kuliku womberi, kumbiti wapatiti vibenamgongu vyawu kila muntu.
When the first came, they imagined they should receive more; but they got only a denarius a-piece.
11 Womberi watoliti mpiya zyawu na wanjiti kumuhinginiziya mtuwa yakawajegiti kutenda lihengu.
Upon receiving it, they murmured against the householder,
12 Watakula, ‘Wantu awa yaguwajegiti kutenda lihengu muupeleru, watenda lihengu lisaa limu hera, twenga tutenda lihengu kwanjira mandawira mpaka mshenji kuzyeta, tuvumiliya mshenji gukalipa, su gwenga gutulipa twenga ntambu yaguwalipa womberi!’
saying, These last have worked but one hour; yet you have made them equal to us, who have borne the burden and heat of the day.
13 “Mtuwa ulii kamwankula yumu gwawu, ‘Gupikaniri ganja, nukupunja ndiri shintu! Toziya gujimilirana na neni nukulipi shibenamgongu.
He answering, said to one of them, Friend, I do you no injury. Did you not agree with me for a denarius?
14 Vinu gutoli malipu gaku na gugendi ukaya. Nfira kumupa muntu ayu yanumjegiti muupeleru kutenda lihengu, shibenamgongu ntambu yanukupanana gwenga.
Take what is yours, and depart. It is my will to give to this last as much as to you.
15 Hashi, neni nekeziwa ndiri kutenda ntambu yanfira kutendera mpiya zangu? Ama gumonera weya toziya neni ntanga wantu?’”
And may not I do what I will with my own? Is your eye evil, because I am good?
16 Yesu kamalira kwa kutakula, “Su wantu woseri yawawoneka wakuupeleru vinu, hawaweri wakwanja na wantu woseri yawawoneka wakwanja vinu, hawaweri wakuupeleru.”
Thus the last shall be first, and first last; for there are many called, but few chosen.
17 Yesu pakaweriti kankugenda Yerusalemu, kawatoliti wafundwa wakuwi lilongu na wawili pambwega na kuwagambira gweka yawu pawaweriti wankugendagenda.
When Jesus was on the road to Jerusalem, he took the twelve aside, and said to them,
18 Kawagambira, “Mpikaniri, twankugenda Yerusalemu, aku Mwana gwa Muntu hawambati na kumjega kwa Watambika wakulu na wafunda wa Malagaliru. Womberi hawamtozi kumlaga
We are now going to Jerusalem, where the Son of Man shall be delivered to the chief priests and the scribes, who will condemn him to die,
19 na hawawapanani wantu wa isi zimonga, womberi hawamtenderi lidufiya na hawamkomi na hawamlagi kwa kumkong'ondera mulupingika na lishaka lya tatu kwanjira pakahowiti hakazyuki.”
and deliver him to the Gentiles to be mocked, and scourged, and crucified; but the third day he will rise again.
20 Shakapanu mdala gwa Zebedayu kiziti kwa Yesu pamuhera na wana wakuwi wawili, kamsuntamalira na kumluwa shintu.
Then the mother of Zebedee's sons came to him with her sons, and, prostrating herself, entreated he would grant the request she had to make.
21 Yesu kamkosiya, “Gufira shishi?” Mawu uliya kamwankula, “Gunahidi neni kuwera wana waneni awa wawili hawalivagi yumu uwega waku wa kumliwu na yumonga uwega waku wa kumshigi, shipindi paguwera Mfalumi.”
He said to her, What do you wish? She answered, That, in your Reign, one of these my two sons may sit at your right hand, the other at your left.
22 Yesu kawankula wana walii, “Muvimana ndiri shamluwa. Hashi, muweza kulandira lutekeru lwa ndabibiku lwanfira kulandira neni?” Womberi wamwankula, “Tuweza.”
Jesus replying, said, You know not what you ask. Can you drink such a cup as I must drink? They said to him, We can.
23 Yesu kawagambira, “Nakaka hamlandiri lutekeru lwangu. Kumbiti neni hapeni ntakuli yoshi hakalivagi kumliwu ama kumshigi kwaneni. Shitwatira ashi ndo sha woseri yawatulilwa kala na Tati gwangu.”
He answered, You shall indeed drink such a cup. But to sit on my right hand, and at my left, I can not give, unless to those for whom it is prepared by my Father.
24 Wafundwa wamonga walii pawapikaniriti aga, wawakalaliti walongu wawili walii.
The then, hearing this, were full of indignation against the two brothers;
25 Su Yesu kawashema woseri pamuhera na kawagambira, “Muvimana kuwera wakolamlima wa isi zimonga wankuwakola wantu wawu kwa makakala na walongoziya wawu wanauwezu nentu.
but Jesus, calling them to him, said, You know that the Princes of the nations domineer over them, and the great exercise their authority upon them.
26 Kumbiti kwa mwenga naiwera gambira womberi pakati penu. Handa pakati penu kwana muntu yakafira kuwera mkulu, kaweri ntumintumi gwa wantu woseri.
It must not be so amongst you: on the contrary, whosoever would become great amongst you, let him be your servant;
27 Handa pakati penu kwana muntu yakafira kuwera gwa kwanja, kaweri ntumintumi gwenu.
and whosoever would be chief amongst you, let him be your slave:
28 Na neni Mwana gwa Muntu niziti ndiri wantenderi, kumbiti niziti kutenda na kuwulaviya ukomu wangu, su nuwalopoziyi wantu wavuwa.”
even as the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life a ransom for many.
29 Yesu pamuhera na wantumintumi wakuwi pakaweriti wankuwuka lushi lwa Yeriku, lipinga likulu lya wantu limfatiti.
As they left Jericho, followed by a great multitude,
30 Su kuweriti na wanalwisi wawili walivaga pampeku pa njira, wapikiniriti kuwera Yesu kankupita peni paliya, su wanjiti kubotanga, “Mtuwa, Mwana gwa Dawudi! Gutuwoneri lusungu!”
two blind men, who sat by the way-side, hearing that Jesus passed by cried, saying, Master, Son of David, have pity on us.
31 Lipinga lya wantu liwakalipira na kuwagambira wanyamali. Kumbiti womberi wongera kubotanga, “Mtuwa, Mwana gwa Dawudi! Gutuwoneri lusungu!”
The multitude charged them to be silent: but they cried the louder, saying, Master, Son of David, have pity on us.
32 Yesu kagoloka kawashema womberi. Su kawakosiya, “Mfira nuwatenderi shishi?”
Then Jesus stopping, called them, and said, What do you want me to do for you?
33 Womberi wamwankula, “Mtuwa, tuluwa kuwona!”
They answered, Sir, to make us see.
34 Su Yesu kawawonera lusungu, kawashinkula masu gawu, na palaa paliya waweziti kuwona na wamfatiti.
Jesus had compassion and touched their eyes. Immediately they received sight, and followed him.
