Mateo 11
1 Zvino zvakaitika apo Jesu apedza kuraira vadzidzi vake gumi nevaviri, akabvira ipapo kudzidzisa nekuparidza pamaguta avo.
And it came to pass when finished Jesus commanding the twelve disciples of Him, He departed from there to teach and to preach in the cities of them.
2 Zvino Johwani wakati anzwa ari mutirongo mabasa aKristu, akatuma vaviri vevadzidzi vake,
And John having heard in the prison the works of the Christ, having sent (on account of *N(K)O*) of the disciples of him
3 akati kwaari: Imwi ndimwi anouya here, kana titarisire umwe?
said to Him; You yourself are the coming [One], or another are we to look for?
4 Jesu akapindura akati kwavari: Endai munoudza Johwani zvinhu zvamunonzwa nezvamunoona:
And answering Jesus said to them; Having gone do relate to John what you hear and see:
5 Mapofu anoonazve, uye mhetamakumbo dzinofamba, vane maperembudzi vanonatswa, nevematsi vanonzwa, vakafa vanomutswa, nevarombo vanoparidzirwa evhangeri;
Blind receive sight, and lame walk, lepers are cleansed, and deaf hear, (and *no*) dead are raised, and poor are evangelised;
6 wakaropafadzwa ani nani asingagumbuswi neni.
And blessed is he who (only *NK(o)*) unless shall fall away in Me myself.
7 Ava vakati vachienda, Jesu akatanga kuudza zvaunga pamusoro paJohwani akati: Makange mabuda kurenje kunoonei? Rutsanga rwunozungunuswa nemhepo here?
As these now were going away began Jesus to speak to the crowds concerning John: What went you out into the wilderness to see? A reed by [the] wind shaken?
8 Asi makange mabuda kunoonei? Munhu wakapfeka nguvo dzakapfava here? Tarirai, vanopfeka zvakapfava vari mudzimba dzemadzimambo.
But what did you go out to see? A man in delicate (garments *k*) dressed? Behold those delicate [clothing] wearing in the houses (of kings *NK(o)*) are;
9 Asi makange mabuda kunoonei? Muporofita here? Hongu, ndinoti kwamuri: Kunyange anopfuura kwazvo muporofita;
But what did you go out to see? a prophet? Yes I say to you; and [one] more excellent than a prophet.
10 nokuti uyu ndiye wakanyorwa pamusoro pake zvichinzi: Tarira, ini ndinotuma mutumwa wangu pamberi pechiso chako, achagadzira nzira yako pamberi pako.
For this (for *ko*) is [he] concerning whom it has been written: Behold I myself send the messenger of Mine before [the] face of You who will prepare the way of You before You.’
11 Zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwamuri: Hakuna kumuka pakati pevakaberekwa nevakadzi mukuru kuna Johwani Mubhabhatidzi. Asi mudikisa muushe hwekumatenga mukuru kwaari.
Amen I say to you; not has been raised among [those] born of women one greater than John the Baptist; Yet the least in the kingdom of the heavens greater than he is.
12 Uye kubva pamazuva aJohwani Mubhabhatidzi kusvikira zvino, ushe hwekumatenga hunopambiwa, nevapambi vanohutora nesimba.
From then the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of the heavens is taken by violence, and [the] violent claim it.
13 Nokuti vaporofita vese nemurairo vakaporofita kusvikira kuna Johwani;
All for the prophets and the law until John prophesied.
14 zvino kana muchida kuzvigamuchira, uyu ndiye Eria wakange achizouya.
And if you are willing to receive [it], he himself is Elijah who is being about to come.
15 Une nzeve dzekunzwa, ngaanzwe.
The [one] having ears he should hear.
16 Asi ndicharifananidza nei zera iri? Rakafanana nevana vagere pamisika, vachidanidzira kushamwari dzavo,
To what however will I compare generation this? Like it is (children *N(k)O*) sitting in (the *no*) markets (who *N(K)O*) (calling out *N(k)O*) (to others *N(K)O*) (of them *k*)
17 vachiti: Takakuridzirai nyere, asi hamuna kutamba; takakuririrai, asi hamuna kuchema.
(and *k*) saying: We piped for you and not you did dance, we sang a dirge (to you *k*) and not you did wail.
18 Nokuti Johwani wakauya asingadyi kana kunwa, asi vanoti: Ane dhimoni.
Came for John neither eating nor drinking, and they say; A demon he has!
19 Mwanakomana wemunhu wakauya achidya, achinwa, zvino vanoti: Tarirai munhu anokara uye munwi wewaini, shamwari yevateresi nevatadzi. Asi njere dzinonzi dzakarurama nevana vadzo.
Came the Son of Man eating and drinking, and they say; Behold a man a glutton and a drunkard, of tax collectors a friend and of sinners! But is justified wisdom by the (deeds *N(K)O*) of her.
20 Ipapo akatanga kutsiura maguta makange maitwa mabasa ake esimba mazhinji, nokuti haana kutendeuka, akati:
Then He began to denounce the cities in which had taken place the most miracles of Him because not they repented;
21 Une nhamo, Korazini! Une nhamo, Bhetisaidha! Nokuti dai akaitwa muTire neSidhoni mabasa esimba akaitwa mamuri, vangadai vakatendeuka kare vakapfeka masaga nedota.
Woe to you Chorazin! Woe to you Bethsaida! For if in Tyre and Sidon had taken place the miracles which having come to pass in you, long ago then would in sackcloth and ashes they have repented.
22 Asi ndinoti kwamuri: Zvichava nani kuTire neSidhoni nezuva rekutongwa kupfuura imwi.
But I say to you; for Tyre and Sidon more tolerable will it be in [the] day of judgment than for you.
23 Newe Kapenaume, wakasimudzirwa kudenga, uchawisirwa pasi muhadhesi; nokuti dai akaitwa muSodhoma mabasa esimba akaitwa mauri, vangadai vachipo kusvikira zuva rino. (Hadēs g86)
And you yourself Capernaum, (surely not *N(K)O*) to (*k*) heaven (will be exalted? *N(k)O*) to Hades (will go down! *N(k)O*) For if in Sodom (happened *N(k)O*) the miracles that were happening in you, (it remained *N(k)O*) then would until the day. (Hadēs g86)
24 Asi ndinoti kwamuri: Zvichava nani kunyika yeSodhoma nezuva rekutongwa kupfuura iwe.
But I say to you that for [the] land of Sodom more tolerable will it be in day of judgment than for you.
25 Nenguva iyo Jesu akapindura akati: Ndinokutendai, Baba, Ishe wedenga nenyika, nokuti makavanzira zvinhu izvi vakachenjera nevakangwara, mukazvizarurira vacheche.
At that [very] time answering Jesus said; I fully consent to You, Father Lord of the heaven and the earth, for (You did hide *N(k)O*) these things from wise and learned and did reveal them to little children.
26 Hongu Baba, nokuti zvakadaro zvakava zvakanaka pamberi penyu.
Yes O Father, for thus well-pleasing it was before You.
27 Zvinhu zvese zvakakumikidzwa kwandiri naBaba vangu; uye hakuna anoziva Mwanakomana kunze kwaBaba; hakunazve anoziva Baba kunze kweMwanakomana, uye ani nani Mwanakomana waanenge achida kuzarurira.
All things to Me was delivered by the Father of Mine, And no [one] knows the Son only except the Father, nor the Father anyone does know only except the Son and to whom if shall choose the Son to reveal [Him].
28 Uyai kwandiri mese makaneta makaremerwa, uye ini ndichakupai zororo.
Come to Me all you who [are] toiling and burdened, and I myself and I myself will give rest to you.
29 Torai joko rangu muise pamusoro penyu, mudzidze kwandiri, nokuti ndiri munyoro, ndakaderera mumoyo; uye muchawana zororo pamweya yenyu;
do take the yoke of Mine upon you and do learn from Me for gentle I am and humble in heart, and you will find rest for the souls of you.
30 nokuti joko rangu rakanakisa, nemutoro wangu wakareruka.
The for yoke of Mine [is] easy and the burden of Mine light is.
