< Mathayo 11 >

1 Yabha baada ya Yesu amale hubhaelekezye abhanafunzi bhakwe kumi na bhabhele asogoye hu plae abhale amanyizye na lombelele katika ikhaya zyawo,
And it happened that when Jesus had finished instructing his twelve disciples, he departed from there to teach and preach in their cities.
2 nu Yohana lwali mwigereza lwahevwezye lwalihumwanya yimbombo zya Klisiti, atumile uwujumbe abhilile abhanafunzi bhakwe,
Now when John heard in prison the works of the Messiah, he sent his disciples
3 na bhamozelezya, “Awe yoyola wawhenza au huliuwamwawo tiwhanziwa humwenyelezye?”
and said to him, "Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?"
4 U Yesu ajibu na yanje humwawo “Bhaji mumozye u Yohana gala gamuhugalola na gala gamuhugevwa.
And Jesus answered them, "Go and tell John the things which you hear and see:
5 Abhantu bhasabhalola, bhapata alole, iviwete bhajenda, abhakoma bhatakasiha, abhantu bhasaga bhawhevwa bhahevwa tena, abhantu bhabhafwiye bhazyoswa apate uwomi, na abhantu bhabhanza bhalombelewa ihabari inyinza.
the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.
6 Na asayiwilwe ola wasagalola amashaka juu yane.
And blessed is he who is not offended by me."
7 Humuda abhantu ebha lwabhasogola, u Yesu ahandile ayanje ni mpoga juu ya Yohana, “Mwabhulile awhenye iyenu whijangwa itete liyinzanywa ninkongu?
And as these went their way, Jesus began to say to the crowds concerning John, "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
8 Ila yenu mwabhalile awhenye umuntu wakwete amenda amalayini? Lyoli, bhala bhabhakwata amenda amalaini bhakhala munyumba zishimwene.
But what did you go out to see? A man in soft clothing? Look, those who wear soft things are in kings' houses.
9 Ila mwasogoye alole iyenu- Ukuwe? Ee, ihumbwawozya ni zaidi ya Kuwe.
But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.
10 Ono yuyo wasimbiwilwe, 'Enya, ihutuma ujumbe wane whilongolela yimaso gakwe, wayi andaa idala iyaho whilongolela lyaho.
This is the one of whom it is written, 'Look, I send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.'
11 Ane ihumbawozya ilyoli, kati ya bhapapwilwe na bhashe nomo waligosi kuliko u Yohana umozyaji. Ila walidodo katika umwene wa humwanya gosi ashile umwene.
Truly I tell you, among those who are born of women there has not arisen anyone greater than John the Baptist; yet he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
12 Afume insiku zya Yohana umozyaji hadi isalezi, umwene wa humwanya wuli wengovo, na bhantu bhabhali bhengovo, bhahuwega hongovo.
And from the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and the violent are taking it by force.
13 Afwatanaje akuwe ni ndajizyo, bhakuwilwe hadi wha Yohana.
For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.
14 Na nkesho mulitayari awheteshe, ono yu Eliya, ola wawhenza.
And if you are willing to receive it, this is Elijah, who is to come.
15 Wali na makutu gawhevwe nayevwaje.
He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
16 Endanganisye ni yenu ishi papo eshi? Shi fano shabhana bhabhawhanga mumaeneo gisoko, bhabhakhala na kwizanye
"But to what should I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces, who call to their companions
17 na yanje, 'Tabhakhomeye izomari na sagamwahanjile. Talilile na sagamwakholile.'
and say, 'We played the flute for you, and you did not dance. We wailed in mourning, and you did not mourn.'
18 Afwataje u Yohana ahenzele bila alye amabumunda au amwele ihombwa, na bhabha bhayanga, 'Ali ni pepo.'
For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, 'He has a demon.'
19 Umwana wa Adamu ahenzele alya na mwele na bhayanga 'Enya, muntu unylavi na ukholwe, rafiki wa sonkola uwushuru na bhimbibhi!' Ila injele iloleha humbombo zyakwe.”
The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, 'Look, a gluttonous man and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.' But wisdom is justified by her children."
20 U Yesu ahandile huyikhalipile ikhaya ambamo baadhi yimbombo zyakwe zimayele zyatendebhe, afwatanaje bhuli sagabhutubule,
Then he began to denounce the cities in which most of his mighty works had been done, because they did not repent.
21 Ahele waho, Kolazini, Ole waho Bethsaida! Nkesho imbombo ingosi gngwawombeshe hu Tiro na Husidoni gala gagawombeshe epa, andi bhatubule hale whakwate amagunila na hujipashe amalota.
"Woe to you, Chorazin. Woe to you, Bethsaida. For if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
22 Ila yayibha ujivwi hu Tiro ni Sidoni isiku lilongwi kuliko hulliwe.
But I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment than for you.
23 Aise, Kapernaum, ubheshele wayiwosewa hadi humwanya? Ndadi wayiwhiswa hadi pansi whilongo. Hansi hu Sodoma hungawombeshe matendo amagosi, hansi gagawombeshe huliwe andiileho hadi ilelo. (Hadēs g86)
And you, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, you will be brought down to hell. For if the mighty works had been done in Sodom which were done in you, it would have remained until this day. (Hadēs g86)
24 Eshi iyanga huliwe aje yayibha vyepesi honse yi Sodoma awhemelele whisiku lilongwi kuliko awe.
But I tell you that it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom, on the day of judgment, than for you."
25 Katika humuda ogo u Yesu ayanjile, “Ihutema awe, Baba, Gosi wahumwanya na panse, husababu wabhafisile amambo ega bhinjele vwelewa, na hugagubule whabhasaga bhali ni elimu, hansi abhana abhadodo.
At that time, Jesus answered, "I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you hid these things from the wise and intelligent, and revealed them to little children.
26 Baba afwatanaje yasongozewelwe esho pamaso gaho.
Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight.
27 Amambo gonti impewilwe ane afume wha Baba. Na nomo wamenye u Baba ila umwana, na wowonti ambaye umwana ali ni hamu ya hugubulile.
All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows the Son, except the Father; neither does anyone know the Father, except the Son, and he to whom the Son desires to reveal him.
28 Enzi huline, amwe mwenti mumuyemba na wuwonelwa na mazigo amamwamu, nane imbahubhatozye.
"Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest.
29 Jiponyaji ijoko lyane na mumanyilaje afume huline, afwatanaje ane niwawhishe na mpole wimoyo na munza pate ulotoyo lwi nafsi zyenyu.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls.
30 Afwatanaje ijoko lyane lilayini na izigo lyane lipoposu.
For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."
