Mako 9
1 Uye akati kwavari, “Ndinokuudzai chokwadi, kuti vamwe vamire pano havazoraviri rufu vasati vaona umambo hwaMwari huchisvika nesimba.”
And he said to them, Verily I say unto you, There are some of those standing here that shall not taste death until they shall have seen the kingdom of God come in power.
2 Shure kwamazuva matanhatu, Jesu akatora Petro, Jakobho naJohani akavatungamirira kugomo refu, kwavakanga vari voga. Akashanduka ikoko pamberi pavo.
And after six days Jesus takes with [him] Peter and James and John, and takes them up on a high mountain by themselves apart. And he was transfigured before them:
3 Nguo dzake dzakapenya, dzikachena kupfuura zvingacheneswa nomunhu upi zvake munyika muno.
and his garments became shining, exceeding white [as snow], such as fuller on earth could not whiten [them].
4 Uye ipapo pakaonekwa pamberi pavo Eria naMozisi, uye vakanga vachitaurirana naJesu.
And there appeared to them Elias with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.
5 Petro akati kuna Jesu, “Rabhi, zvakanaka kuti isu tigare pano. Ngativakei matumba matatu, rimwe renyu, rimwe raMozisi uye rimwe raEria.”
And Peter answering says to Jesus, Rabbi, it is good that we should be here; and let us make three tabernacles, for thee one, and for Moses one, and for Elias one.
6 Akashaya zvokutaura, nokuti vakanga votya zvikuru.
For he knew not what he should say, for they were filled with fear.
7 Ipapo gore rakaonekwa rikavafukidza, uye inzwi rakabuda mugore rikati, “Uyu ndiye Mwanakomana wangu, wandinoda. Munzwei!”
And there came a cloud overshadowing them, and there came a voice out of the cloud, This is my beloved Son: hear him.
8 Pakarepo, vakatarisa kwose kwose, uye havana kuzoona munhu aripo navo kunze kwaJesu.
And suddenly having looked around, they no longer saw any one, but Jesus alone with themselves.
9 Pavakanga vava kuburuka mugomo, Jesu akavarayira kuti varege kutaurira kana munhu upi zvake zvavakanga vaona kusvikira Mwanakomana woMunhu amuka kubva kuvakafa.
And as they descended from the mountain, he charged them that they should relate to no one what they had seen, unless when the Son of man should be risen from among [the] dead.
10 Vakachengeta shoko iri pakati pavo, vachikurukurirana pamusoro pokuti, “kumuka kwavakafa” kunorevei.
And they kept that saying, questioning among themselves, what rising from among [the] dead was.
11 Uye vakamubvunza vakati, “Seiko vadzidzisi vomurayiro vachiti Eria anofanira kutanga kuuya?”
And they asked him saying, Why do the scribes say that Elias must first have come?
12 Jesu akapindura akati, “Kutaura chokwadi, Eria anofanira kutanga kuuya, uye agovandudza zvinhu zvose. Zvino kwakanyorerwei kuchinzi Mwanakomana woMunhu anofanira kutambudzika zvikuru uye agorambwa?
And he answering said to them, Elias indeed, having first come, restores all things; and how is it written of the Son of man that he must suffer much, and be set at nought:
13 Asi ndinoti kwamuri, Eria akauya, uye vakaita kwaari zvinhu zvose zvavaida, sezvazvakanyorwa pamusoro pake.”
but I say unto you that Elias also is come, and they have done to him whatever they would, as it is written of him.
14 Vakati vasvika kuna vamwe vadzidzi, vakaona vanhu vazhinji zhinji vakavakomberedza uye vadzidzisi vomurayiro vachiita nharo navo.
And when he came to the disciples he saw a great crowd around them, and scribes disputing against them.
15 Vanhu vose pavakangoona Jesu, vakashamiswa zvikuru uye vakamhanya kundomukwazisa.
And immediately all the crowd seeing him were amazed, and running to [him], saluted him.
16 Akati, “Muri kuvabvunzeiko?”
And he asked them, What do ye question with them about?
17 Mumwe murume aiva pakati pavanhu vazhinji akapindura akati, “Mudzidzisi, ndauya kwamuri nomwanakomana wangu, akabatwa nomweya wakamupa umbeveve.
And one out of the crowd answered him, Teacher, I brought to thee my son, who has a dumb spirit;
18 Pose pose paunomubata, unomukanda pasi. Anopupuma furo pamuromo, worumanisa meno ake uye anobva aoma. Ndakumbira vadzidzi venyu kuti vaudzinge asi havana kugona kuzviita.”
and wheresoever it seizes him it tears him, and he foams and gnashes his teeth, and he is withering away. And I spoke to thy disciples, that they might cast him out, and they could not.
19 Jesu akati, “Haiwa rudzi rusingatendi, ndichagara nemi kusvikira riniko? Ndichakuitirai mwoyo murefu kusvikira riniko? Uyai nomukomana kwandiri.”
But he answering them says, O unbelieving generation! how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you? bring him to me.
20 Saka vakauya naye. Mweya wakati uchiona Jesu, pakarepo wakawisira mukomana pasi ukamubvundisa. Akawira pasi akaumburuka, achipupuma furo pamuromo.
And they brought him to him. And seeing him the spirit immediately tore him; and falling upon the earth he rolled foaming.
21 Jesu akabvunza baba vomukomana akati, “Ane nguva yakadii achiita izvi?” Vakapindura vakati, “Kubva pauduku hwake.
And he asked his father, How long a time is it that it has been like this with him? And he said, From childhood;
22 Kazhinji unosimuwisira mumoto kana mumvura kuti umuuraye. Asi kana muchigona kuita chinhu, tinzwirei tsitsi mutibatsire.”
and often it has cast him both into fire and into waters that it might destroy him: but if thou couldst [do] anything, be moved with pity on us, and help us.
23 Jesu akati, “Kana muchigona? Zvinhu zvose zvinogoneka kune anotenda.”
And Jesus said to him, The 'if thou couldst' is [if thou couldst] believe: all things are possible to him that believes.
24 Pakarepo baba vomukomana vakadanidzira vachiti, “Ndinotenda; ndibatsirei pakusatenda kwangu!”
And immediately the father of the young child crying out said [with tears], I believe, help mine unbelief.
25 Jesu akati aona kuti vanhu vazhinji vakanga vomhanyira panzvimbo iyo, akarayira mweya wakaipa akati, “Iwe mweya woumatsi nomweya woumbeveve, ndinokurayira, buda maari, uye usazopindazve maari.”
But Jesus, seeing that [the] crowd was running up together, rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I command thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.
26 Mweya wakadanidzira, ukamubvundisa zvikuru uye ukabuda. Mukomana akaita sokunge chitunha zvokuti vazhinji vakati, “Afa.”
And having cried out and torn [him] much, he came out; and he became as if dead, so that the most said, He is dead.
27 Asi Jesu akamubata noruoko akamumisa netsoka dzake, uye akakwanisa kumira.
But Jesus, having taken hold of him by the hand, lifted him up, and he arose.
28 Mushure mokunge Jesu apinda mumba, vadzidzi vake vakamubvunza vari voga vachiti, “Seiko isu takakundikana kuudzinga?”
And when he was entered into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Wherefore could not we cast him out?
29 Akapindura achiti, “Rudzi urwu runongobva chete nokunyengetera nokutsanya.”
And he said to them, This kind can go out by nothing but by prayer and fasting.
30 Vakabva panzvimbo iyoyo vakapfuura nomuGarirea. Jesu akanga asingadi kuti zvizivikanwe nomunhu kuti vaiva kupi,
And going forth from thence they went through Galilee; and he would not that any one knew it;
31 nokuti akanga achidzidzisa vadzidzi vake. Akati kwavari, “Mwanakomana woMunhu achazopandukirwa achiiswa mumaoko avanhu. Vachamuuraya, uye shure kwamazuva matatu achamuka.”
for he taught his disciples and said to them, The Son of man is delivered into men's hands, and they shall kill him; and having been killed, after three days he shall rise again.
32 Asi havana kunzwisisa zvaakanga achireva uye vakanga vachitya kumubvunza pamusoro pazvo.
But they understood not the saying, and feared to ask him.
33 Vakasvika kuKapenaume. Paakanga ari mumba, akavabvunza akati, “Manga muchikakavadzana pamusoro peiko munzira?”
And he came to Capernaum, and being in the house, he asked them, Of what were ye reasoning by the way?
34 Asi vakanyarara nokuti vakanga vakakavadzana vari munzira pamusoro pokuti mukuru ndiani.
And they remained silent, for by the way they had been reasoning with one another who [was] greatest.
35 Agara pasi, Jesu akadana vane gumi navaviri akati, “Kana munhu achida kuva wokutanga, anofanira kuva iye wokupedzisira, uye muranda wavose.”
And sitting down he called the twelve; and he says to them, If any one would be first, he shall be last of all, and minister of all.
36 Akatora mwana muduku akamumisa pakati pavo. Akamubata mumaoko ake, akati kwavari,
And taking a little child he set it in their midst, and having taken it in his arms he said to them,
37 “Ani naani anogamuchira mumwe wavaduku ava muzita rangu anogamuchira ini; uye ani naani anondigamuchira haagamuchiri ini asi iye akandituma.”
Whosoever shall receive one of such little children in my name, receives me; and whosoever shall receive me, does not receive me, but him who sent me.
38 Johani akati, “Mudzidzisi, taona munhu achidzinga madhimoni muzita renyu tikamudzivisa, nokuti anga asiri mumwe wedu.”
And John answered him saying, Teacher, we saw some one casting out demons in thy name, who does not follow us, and we forbad him, because he does not follow us.
39 Jesu akati, “Musamudzivisa. Hakuna munhu anoita chishamiso muzita rangu angazotaura zvakaipa pamusoro pangu mushure maizvozvo,
But Jesus said, Forbid him not; for there is no one who shall do a miracle in my name, and be able soon [after] to speak ill of me;
40 nokuti ani naani asingarwisani nesu ndowedu.
for he who is not against us is for us.
41 Ndinokuudzai chokwadi, ani naani anokupai mukombe wemvura muzita rangu nokuda kwokuti muri vaKristu zvirokwazvo haangazorasikirwi nomubayiro wake.
For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in [my] name, because ye are Christ's, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.
42 “Uye kana ani naani akaita kuti mumwe wavaduku ava vanotenda kwandiri atadze, zvingava nani kwaari kuti akandwe mugungwa akasungirirwa guyo guru mumutsipa make.
And whosoever shall be a snare to one of the little ones who believe [in me], it were better for him if a millstone were hung about his neck, and he cast into the sea.
43 Kana ruoko rwako ruchikuita kuti utadze, rugure. Zviri nani kwauri kuti upinde muupenyu uri chirema pano kuti upinde mugehena namaoko maviri, uko kune moto usingadzimwi, (Geenna g1067)
And if thy hand serve as a snare to thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having thy two hands to go away into hell, into the fire unquenchable; (Geenna g1067)
44 umo musingafi honye dzavo uye moto usingadzimwi.
[where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched].
45 Uye kana rutsoka rwako ruchiita kuti utadze, rugure. Zviri nani kwauri kupinda muupenyu uri chirema pano kupinda mugehena namakumbo maviri, (Geenna g1067)
And if thy foot serve as a snare to thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life lame, than having thy two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire unquenchable; (Geenna g1067)
46 umo musingafi honye dzavo uye moto usingadzimwi.
[where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched].
47 Uye kana ziso rako richiita kuti utadze, ribvise. Zviri nani kwauri kuti upinde muumambo hwaMwari neziso rimwe chete pano kuti uve namaziso maviri uye ugokandwa kugehena, (Geenna g1067)
And if thine eye serve as a snare to thee, cast it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire, (Geenna g1067)
48 uko “‘kusingafi honye dzavo uye moto wacho usingadzimwi.’
where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched.
49 Munhu wose acharungwa nomoto.
For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be salted with salt.
50 “Munyu wakanaka, asi kana warasa kuvava kwawo, mungauita kuti urungezve here? Ivai nomunyu mukati menyu, uye muve norugare pakati penyu.”
Salt [is] good, but if the salt is become saltless, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another.
