Mateo 15
1 Ipapo vanyori navaFarisi vakauya kuna Jesu vachibva kuJerusarema uye vakamubvunza vachiti,
Then came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem, saying,
2 “Sei vadzidzi venyu vachityora tsika dzavakuru? Havashambi maoko avo vasati vadya!”
Why do your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.
3 Jesu akavapindura achiti, “Ko, imi munotyorerei murayiro waMwari nokuda kwetsika dzenyu?
But he answered and said unto them, Why do all of you also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?
4 Nokuti Mwari akati, ‘Kudza baba vako namai vako’ uye, ‘Ani naani anotuka baba kana mai vake anofanira kuurayiwa.’
For God commanded, saying, Honour your father and mother: and, He that curses father or mother, let him die the death.
5 Asi imi munoti kana munhu akati kuna baba vake kana mai vake, ‘Chinhu chipi nechipi chamaiti munozogamuchira kubva kwandiri, chava chipo chakakumikidzwa kuna Mwari’,
But all of you say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever you might be profited by me;
6 haachafaniri ‘kukudza baba vake’ nacho? Saizvozvo munoshayisa shoko raMwari simba nokuda kwetsika dzenyu.
And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have all of you made the commandment of God of no effect by your tradition.
7 Imi vanyengeri! Isaya akaprofita kwazvo pamusoro penyu achiti:
All of you hypocrites, well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying,
8 “‘Vanhu ava vanondikudza nemiromo yavo, asi mwoyo yavo iri kure neni.
This people draws nigh unto me with their mouth, and honors me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
9 Vanondinamata pasina; vachidzidzisa dzidziso nemirayiro yavanhu.’”
But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
10 Jesu akadana vanhu vazhinji kwaari akati, “Teererai, munzwisise.
And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand:
11 Icho chinopinda mumuromo momunhu ‘hachimusvibisi’, asi chinobuda mumuromo make ndicho ‘chinomusvibisa’.”
Not that which goes into the mouth defiles a man; but that which comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man.
12 Ipapo vadzidzi vakauya kwaari vakamubvunza vachiti, “Munoziva here kuti vaFarisi vagumburwa pavanzwa shoko iri?”
Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Know you that the Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying? (logos)
13 Akapindura akati, “Muti mumwe nomumwe usina kusimwa naBaba vangu vokudenga uchadzurwa.
But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father has not planted, shall be rooted up.
14 Vasiyei vakadaro, vatungamiriri vamapofu. Kana bofu rikatungamirira rimwe bofu, vose vachawira mugomba.”
Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.
15 Petro akati, “Titsanangurirei mufananidzo uyu.”
Then answered Peter and said unto him, Declare unto us this parable.
16 Jesu akavabvunza akati, “Nemiwo hamusati mava kunzwisisa?
And Jesus said, Are all of you also yet without understanding?
17 Hamuoniwo here kuti chose chinopinda mumuromo chinopinda mudumbu chichizobuda kunze!
Do not all of you yet understand, that whatsoever enters in at the mouth goes into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?
18 Asi zvinhu zvinobuda mumuromo zvinobva mumwoyo, izvozvi ndizvo zvinosvibisa munhu.
But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.
19 Nokuti mumwoyo munobuda pfungwa dzakaipa, umhondi, upombwe, unzenza, umbavha, uchapupu hwenhema nokureva nhema pamusoro pavamwe vanhu.
For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:
20 Izvi ndizvo ‘zvinosvibisa’ munhu, asi kudya asina kushamba maoko ‘hazvimusvibisi’.”
These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashed hands defiles not a man.
21 Jesu akabvapo akaenda kudunhu reTire neSidhoni.
Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon.
22 Mumwe mukadzi muKenani womunzvimbo iyi akauya achidanidzira achiti, “Ishe, mwanakomana waDhavhidhi, ndinzwirei ngoni! Mwanasikana wangu ari kutambudzwa zvikuru nedhimoni rakamubata.”
And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, you son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil.
23 Jesu haana chaakapindura. Ipapo vadzidzi vake vakauya kwaari vakasvikoti, “Mudzingei nokuti ari kuramba achidanidzira kwatiri.”
But he answered her not a word. (logos) And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she cries after us.
24 Akati kwavari, “Ndakatumwa kumakwai akarasika eIsraeri chete.”
But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
25 Mukadzi uya akauya akasvikopfugama pamberi pake akati, “Ishe, ndibatsireiwo!”
Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.
26 Akapindura akati, “Hazvina kunaka kutora chingwa chavana muchichikandira imbwa.”
But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.
27 Mukadzi uya akati, “Hongu Ishe, kunyange nembwa dzinodyawo zvimedu zvinodonha kubva patafura yatenzi wadzo.”
And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table.
28 Ipapo Jesu akapindura akati, “Mai, mune kutenda kukuru! Chikumbiro chenyu chanzwikwa.” Mwanasikana wake akabva aporeswa kubva panguva iyoyo.
Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is your faith: be it unto you even as you will. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.
29 Jesu akabvapo akatevedza gungwa reGarirea. Ipapo akakwira mugomo akagara pasi.
And Jesus departed from thence, and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee; and went up into a mountain, and sat down there.
30 Uye vanhu vazhinji vakauya kwaari navakaremara, mapofu, mhetamakumbo, mbeveve navamwe vazhinji, vakasvikovaisa patsoka dzake uye akavaporesa.
And great multitudes came unto him, having with them those that were lame, blind, dumb, physically disabled, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus' feet; and he healed them:
31 Vanhu vakashamiswa kuona mbeveve dzichitaura, mhetamakumbo dzichitwasanudzwa, vakaremara vachifamba namapofu achiona. Vakarumbidza Mwari weIsraeri.
Insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak, the physically disabled to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and they glorified the God of Israel.
32 Jesu akadana vadzidzi vake akati kwavari, “Ndiri kunzwa tsitsi pamusoro pavanhu ava; vanga vachingova neni kwamazuva matatu uye havachina chokudya. Handidi kuti ndivaendese vaine nzara nokuti vangaziya nenzara munzira.”
Then Jesus called his disciples unto him, and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.
33 Vadzidzi vake vakapindura vachiti, “Ndokupi kwatingawana chingwa chinokwana vanhu vose ava muno musango makadai?”
And his disciples say unto him, Whence should we have so much bread in the wilderness, as to fill so great a multitude?
34 Jesu akabvunza akati, “Mune zvingwa zvingani?” Ivo vakati, “Tine zvinomwe notuhove tushoma shoma.”
And Jesus says unto them, How many loaves have all of you? And they said, Seven, and a few little fishes.
35 Akarayira kuti vanhu vose vagare pasi.
And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground.
36 Ipapo akatora zvingwa zvinomwe zviya nehove dziya, akavonga, akazvimedura ndokuzvipa kuvadzidzi, ivowo ndokupa vanhu vose.
And he took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave thanks, and brake them, and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.
37 Vose vakadya vakaguta. Mushure, vadzidzi vakanhongera zvimedu zvakanga zvasara zvikazadza matengu manomwe.
And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken food that was left seven baskets full.
38 Vanhu vakadya vaiva varume zviuru zvina, vakadzi navana vasingaverengerwi.
And they that did eat were four thousand men, beside women and children.
39 Mushure mokunge Jesu aendesa vanhu vazhinji ava, akapinda mugwa ndokubva aenda kudunhu reMagadhani.
And he sent away the multitude, and took ship, and came into the coasts of Magdala.
