Mathaio 16
1 Mme ka letsatsi lengwe Bafarasai le Basadukai ba tla go leka Jesu mabapi le polelo ya gagwe ya gore ke Mesia ka go mo kopa go ba supegetsa ditshupo dingwe tse di tona mo magodimong.
And the pharisees and sadducees came to Him, and captiously asked Him to shew them a sign from heaven.
2 A fetola a re, “Lo siame mo go baleng ditshupo tsa seemo sa mawapi; lo a tle lo re bohibidu jwa loapi maitseboeng bo raya seemo se sentle sa mawapi; lo a tle lo re bohibidu jwa loapi maitseboeng ano bo raya seemo se sentle sa loapi ka moso; lo bo lo re loapi lo lo hibidu mo mosong lo raya seemo se se bosula sa loapi motshegare otlhe, mme ga lo kgone go bala ditshupo tse di itlhalosang ka botsone tsa metlha!
But He answered them, In the evening ye say, It will be fair weather, for the sky is red:
and in the morning, It will be foul weather to-day, for the sky is red and lowring. Ye hypocrites, can ye distinguish the appearance of the sky, and not discern the signs of these times?
4 Sechaba se se bosula se, se se sa dumeleng se batla tshupo nngwe e e sa tlwaelesegang mo magodimong, mme ga go na sesupo sepe se se tlaa dirwang fa e se mofuta o o neetsweng Jona.” Hong Jesu a tswela kwa ntle a ba tlogela.
This wicked and degenerate race demand a sign; but no sign shall be given them, except that of the prophet Jonah. And so He left them and went away.
5 Erile ba sena go kgabaganya lecha, barutwa ba lemoga gore ba lebetse go tla le dijo.
Now when his disciples departed to the other side, they forgot to take bread with them:
6 Mme Jesu a ba tlhagisa a re, “Itlhokomeleng! Itiseng mo sebidisong sa Bafarasai le Basadukai.”
and therefore when Jesus said to them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the pharisees and of the sadducees,
7 Ba gopola gore o na a bua jaana ka gore ba ne ba lebetse go tla le senkgwe.
they said one to another, It is because we have taken no bread.
8 Jesu a ba a itse se ba se akanyang mme a ba raya a re, batho ba tumelo potlana! Ke eng fa lo tshwenyegile jaana ka go tlhoka senkgwe?
And Jesus knowing their thoughts said to them, O ye of little faith, why do ye argue among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread?
9 A ga lo kitla lo tlhaloganya? A ga lo gakologelwe bontsi jwa batho bo le dikete tse ke di hephileng ka dinkgwe di le tlhano, le diroto tse di neng tsa tlogelwa di tletse masalela? A ga lo gakologelwe dikete tse nne tse ke di hephileng le gotlhe mo go neng ga sala?
Do ye not yet understand, nor remember the five loaves divided among five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
nor the seven loaves among four thousand, and how many baskets-full ye took away?
11 Lo ka akanya jang gore ke ne ke bua ka dijo? Mme gape ka re, “Itiseng mo sebidisong sa Bafarasai le Basadukai.”
How is it then that ye do not understand that I did not speak to you concerning bread, when I bid you to beware of the leaven of the pharisees and of the sadducees?
12 Hong kwa bofelong ba tlhaloganya gore ka ‘sebidiso’ o na a raya thuto e e sa siamang ya Bafarasai le Basadukai.
Then they understood, that He did not bid them beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the pharisees and of the sadducees.
13 Erile a goroga kwa Kaesarea Filipi, a botsa barutwa ba gagwe a re, “Batho ba re ke mang?”
And when Jesus came into the parts of Cesarea Philippi, He asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I, the Son of man, am?
14 Ba fetola ba re, “Bangwe ba re Johane wa Mokolobetsi; bangwe ba re Elija, bangwe ba re Jeremia kgotsa mongwe wa baporofiti ba bangwe.”
And they answered, Some say thou art John the Baptist, others Elias, and others Jeremias, or one of the prophets.
15 Hong a ba botsa a re, “Lona lo akanya gore ke mang?”
But, saith He unto them, whom do ye say that I am?
16 Simone Petere a fetola a re, “Keresete Mesia Morwa Modimo o o tshedileng”.
And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ the Son of the living God.
17 Jesu a mo raya a re, “Modimo o go segofaditse, Simone, morwa Jona. Gonne Rara yo o kwa legodimong ke ene yo o go senoletseng dilo tse ka boene, ga go a tswa mo go ope.
And Jesus replied and said unto him, Blessed art thou Simon son of Jonas, for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father who is in heaven.
18 O Petere, lefika, mme ke aga phuthego ya me mo lefikeng le, mme dinonofo tsotlhe tsa molete ga di kitla di e fenya. (Hadēs g86)
And I also say unto thee, as thou art called Peter, so upon this rock, which thou hast confessed, will I build my church, and the gates of death shall not prevail against it. (Hadēs g86)
19 Mme ke tlaa go neela dilotlolo tsa bogosi jwa legodimo, dikgoro dingwe le dingwe tse o di lotlelang mo lefatshing, di tla lotlelwa kwa legodimong; mme dikgoro dingwe le dingwe tse o di lotlololang mo lefatsheng, di tlaa lotlololwa kwa legodimong!”
And I will give thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
20 Hong a laya barutwa gore ba se ka ba bolelela bape fa e le Mesia.
Then charged He his disciples that they should tell no one that He was the Messiah.
21 Go tswa foo Jesu a simolola go tlhalosetsa barutwa ba gagwe kaga go ya kwa Jerusalema, le se se tlaa mo diragalelang teng, gore o tlaa boga mo diatleng tsa baeteledipele ba Sejuta, le gore o tla bolawa le gore e tlaa re morago ga malatsi a le mararo a tsosiwe gape.
And from that time began Jesus to acquaint his disciples, that He must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders, and chief priests, and scribes; and be put to death, and be raised again on the third day.
22 Mme Petere a mo tseela fa thoko go mo kgalemela a mo raya a re, “A mogopolo oo o nyelele Morena. Mo ga go kitla go go diragalela!”
Then Peter took Him and began to expostulate with Him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: may this never be unto thee.
23 Jesu a retologela kwa go Petere a re, “Tloga fa go nna, Satane ke wena! O lemena le le diphatsa mo go nna. O akanya ka fa batho ba bonang ka teng, e seng ka fa Modimo o akanyang ka teng.”
But He turned and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan, thou art an offence to me; for thou regardest not the things of God, but those that be of men.
24 Hong Jesu a raya barutwa a re, “Fa motho le fa e le mang a rata go nna molatedi wa me, a a iitatole a tseye mokgoro wa gagwe a ntshale morago.
Then said Jesus to his disciples, If any one is willing to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me:
25 Gonne le fa e le mang yo o ipolokelang botshelo jwa gagwe bo tlaa mo latlhegela; mme le fa e le mang yo o latlhegelwang ke botshelo jwa gagwe ka ntlha ya me o tlaa bo bona gape.
for he that would save his life shall lose it; but he that would lose his life for my sake shall find it.
26 Go na le poelo ya eng fa motho a rua lefatshe lotlhe, mme a latlhegelwa ke botshelo jo bo sa khutleng? Se se ka tshwantshiwang le letlotlo la botshelo jo bo sa khutleng ke eng?
For what is a man profited, if he gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give as a ransom for his soul?
27 Gonne Nna, Morwa Motho, ke tlaa tla le baengele ba me mo kgalalelong ya ga Rre go atlhola mongwe le mongwe ka fa ditirong tsa gagwe.
For the Son of man will come in the glory of his father, with his angels, and then he will recompense every one according to his practice.
28 Mme bangwe ba lona ba ba emeng fano jaanong jaana ba tshelela go mpona ke tla mo Bogosing jwa me.”
And I tell you of a truth, there be some of those standing here, who shall not taste of death, till they have seen the Son of man coming in his kingdom.
