< Mako 11 >

1 Pavakanga vava kusvika kuJerusarema uye vasvika kuBhetifage neBhetani paGomo reMiorivhi, Jesu akatuma vaviri vavadzidzi vake,
When they came near to Jerusalem, to Bethsphage and Bethany, at the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples
2 achiti kwavari, “Endai mumusha wakatarisana nemi. Pamunongopinda mauri, muchawana mwana wembongoro asina kumbotasvwa nomunhu, akasungirirwa ipapo. Mumusunungure mugouya naye pano.
and said to them, “Go your way into the village that is opposite you. Immediately as you enter into it, you will find a young donkey tied, on which no one has sat. Untie him and bring him.
3 Kana mukabvunzwa nomunhu kuti, ‘Seiko muchiita izvi?’ muti kwaari, ‘Ishe anomuda uye achamudzosa pano nokukurumidza.’”
If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ say, ‘The Lord needs him;’ and immediately he will send him back here.”
4 Vakaenda vakandowana mwana wembongoro ari kunze munzira yomumusha, akasungirirwa pamukova. Pavakamusunungura,
They went away, and found a young donkey tied at the door outside in the open street, and they untied him.
5 vamwe vanhu vakanga vamirepo vakabvunza vakati, “Muri kuitei, muchisunungura mwana wembongoro uyo?”
Some of those who stood there asked them, “What are you doing, untying the young donkey?”
6 Vakapindura sezvavakanga vaudzwa naJesu, uye vanhu vakavarega vachienda.
They said to them just as Jesus had said, and they let them go.
7 Vakauya nembongoro iyi kuna Jesu vakakanda majasi avo pamusoro payo, iye akagara pairi.
They brought the young donkey to Jesus and threw their garments on it, and Jesus sat on it.
8 Vanhu vazhinji vakawaridza majasi avo mumigwagwa, vamwe vakawaridza matavi avakanga vatema musango.
Many spread their garments on the way, and others were cutting down branches from the trees and spreading them on the road.
9 Vakanga vari mberi navaya vaitevera vakadanidzira vachiti: “Hosana!” “Akaropafadzwa uyo anouya muzita raShe!”
Those who went in front and those who followed cried out, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!
10 “Hwakaropafadzwa umambo hunouya, hwababa vedu Dhavhidhi!” “Hosana kumusoro-soro!”
Blessed is the kingdom of our father David that is coming in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!”
11 Jesu akapinda muJerusarema uye akaenda kutemberi. Akatarisa-tarisa zvinhu zvose, asi sezvo kwakanga kwadoka, akabuda akaenda kuBhetani navane gumi navaviri.
Jesus entered into the temple in Jerusalem. When he had looked around at everything, it being now evening, he went out to Bethany with the twelve.
12 Fume mangwana pavakanga vobva kuBhetani, Jesu akanzwa nzara.
The next day, when they had come out from Bethany, he was hungry.
13 Akaona muonde uri kure una mashizha, akaenda kundoona kana wakanga une muchero. Akati asvika pauri, haana chaakawana asi mashizha bedzi, nokuti yakanga isiri nguva yamaonde.
Seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came to see if perhaps he might find anything on it. When he came to it, he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.
14 Ipapo akati kumuti, “Ngakurege kuva nomunhu anodya muchero paurizve.” Vadzidzi vake vakamunzwa achidaro. (aiōn g165)
Jesus told it, "May no one eat fruit from you again for the age (aiōn g165)!" And his disciples heard it.
15 Paakasvika muJerusarema, Jesu akapinda mutemberi akatanga kudzingira kunze vaya vakanga vachitenga nokutengeserana imomo. Akapidigura tafura dzevaitsinhana mari nezvigaro zvevaitengesa njiva,
They came to Jerusalem, and Jesus entered into the temple and began to throw out those who sold and those who bought in the temple, and overthrew the money changers’ tables and the seats of those who sold the doves.
16 uye haana kutendera munhu kutakura zvaitengeswa achipinda nomuchivanze chete mberi.
He would not allow anyone to carry a container through the temple.
17 Uye akavadzidzisa achiti, “Ko, hazvina kunyorwa here kuti: “‘Imba yangu ichanzi imba yokunyengetera yendudzi dzose’? Asi imi maiita ‘bako ramakororo.’”
He taught, saying to them, “Is not it written, ‘My house will be called a house of prayer for all the nations’? But you have made it a den of robbers!”
18 Vaprista vakuru navadzidzisi vomurayiro vakazvinzwa ndokubva vatanga kutsvaka nzira yokumuuraya nayo, nokuti vaimutya, nokuti vanhu vazhinji vose vaishamiswa nedzidziso yake.
The chief priests and the scribes heard it, and sought how they might destroy him. For they feared him, because all the multitude was astonished at his teaching.
19 Madekwana akati asvika, vakaenda kunze kweguta.
When evening came, he went out of the city.
20 Mangwanani, pavakanga vachifamba, vakaona muonde wakaoma kubva kumidzi.
As they passed by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered away from the roots.
21 Petro akarangarira akati kuna Jesu, “Rabhi, tarirai! Muonde wamakatuka waoma!”
Peter, remembering, said to him, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree which you cursed has withered away.”
22 Jesu akapindura akati, “Ivai nokutenda muna Mwari.
Jesus answered them, “Have faith in God.
23 Ndinokuudzai chokwadi, kana munhu akati kugomo iri, ‘Enda, uzvikande mugungwa,’ uye asingakahadziki nazvo mumwoyo make, asi achitenda kuti zvaareva zvichaitika, achazviitirwa.
For most certainly I tell you, whoever may tell this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is happening, he shall have whatever he says.
24 Naizvozvo ndinoti kwamuri, zvose zvamunokumbira mukunyengetera, tendai kuti mazvigamuchira, uye zvichava zvenyu.
Therefore I tell you, all things whatever you pray and ask for, believe that you have received them, and you shall have them.
25 Uye paunomira uchinyengetera, kana mumwe munhu akakutadzira, muregerere, kuitira kuti Baba vako vari kudenga vagokuregerera zvivi zvako.
Whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone; so that your Father, who is in heaven, may also forgive you your transgressions.
26 Asi kana usingaregereri, Baba vako vari kudenga havazoregereri zvivi zvako.”
But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your transgressions.”
27 Vakasvikazve muJerusarema, uye Jesu paaifamba mutemberi, vaprista vakuru, vadzidzisi vomurayiro navakuru vakauya kwaari.
They came again to Jerusalem, and as he was walking in the temple, the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders came to him,
28 Vakati, “Unoita zvinhu izvi nesimba ripiko? Uye ndiani akakupa simba rokuita izvi?”
and they began saying to him, “By what authority do you do these things? Or who gave you this authority to do these things?”
29 Jesu akapindura akati, “Ndichakubvunzai mubvunzo mumwe chete. Ndipindurei, ndigokuudzai simba randinoita naro zvinhu izvi.
Jesus said to them, “I will ask you one question. Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.
30 Rubhabhatidzo rwaJohani, rwakabva kudenga kana kuti kuvanhu? Ndiudzei!”
The baptism of John—was it from heaven, or from men? Answer me.”
31 Vakataurirana pakati pavo vakati, “Kana tikati, ‘Kudenga,’ achati, ‘Zvino makaregereiko kumutenda?’
They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we should say, ‘From heaven;’ he will say, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’
32 Asi kana tikati kuvanhu…” (Vakanga vachitya vanhu, nokuti vanhu vose vaitenda kuti Johani akanga ari muprofita zvechokwadi.)
If we should say, ‘From men’”—they feared the people, for all held John to really be a prophet.
33 Saka vakapindura Jesu vachiti, “Hatizivi.” Jesu akati, “Neniwo handikuudzei simba randinoita naro zvinhu izvi.”
They answered Jesus, “We do not know.” Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
