1 Ipapo Jesu wakataura kuzvaunga nekuvadzidzi vake,
Pamenepo Yesu anati kwa magulu a anthu ndi ophunzira ake:
2 achiti: Vanyori neVaFarisi vagere pachigaro chaMozisi;
“Aphunzitsi amalamulo ndi Afarisi amakhala pa mpando wa Mose.
3 saka zvese chero zvipi zvavanokuudzai kuti muzvichengete, chengetai nekuita; asi musaita semabasa avo; nokuti vanotaura, asi havaiti.
Choncho muziwamvera ndi kuchita chilichonse chimene akuwuzani. Koma musachite zimene amachita, popeza sachita zimene amaphunzitsa.
4 Nokuti vanosunga mitoro inorema uye inorwadza kutakura, vachiisa pamafudzi evanhu, asi havadi kuisudurusa nemunwe wavo.
Amamanga akatundu olemera nawayika pa mapewa a anthu, koma iwo eni safuna kuwanyamula.
5 Asi mabasa avo ese vanoaita kuti vaonekwe nevanhu; nokuti vanofarisa mafirakitera avo, vanorebesa mipendero yenguvo dzavo;
“Ntchito zawo amachita ndi cholinga chakuti anthu awaone. Amadzimangirira timaphukusi tikulutikulu ta Mawu a Mulungu pa mphumi ndi pa mkono komanso amatalikitsa mphonje za mikanjo yawo.
6 vanoda chinzvimbo chakakwirira pazvirairo, nezvigaro zvemberi mumasinagoge,
Amakonda malo aulemu pa maphwando ndi malo ofunika kwambiri mʼmasunagoge.
7 nekwaziso pamisika, nekunzi nevanhu: Rabhi, Rabhi.
Amakondwera ndi kupatsidwa moni mʼmisika ndi kutchulidwa kuti ‘Aphunzitsi.’
8 Asi imwi musaidzwa Rabhi, nokuti umwe ndiye mudzidzisi wenyu, Kristu; imwi mese muri hama.
“Koma inu simuyenera kutchulidwa ‘Aphunzitsi,’ popeza muli naye Mbuye mmodzi ndipo inu nonse ndinu abale.
9 Musaidza munhu panyika baba venyu; nokuti umwe ndiBaba venyu, ivo vari kumatenga.
Ndipo musamatchule wina aliyense pansi pano kuti ‘Atate,’ pakuti muli ndi Atate mmodzi, ndipo ali kumwamba.
10 Musaidzwawo vadzidzisi; nokuti umwe ndiye Mudzidzisi wenyu, iye Kristu.
Komanso musamatchedwenso ‘Mtsogoleri,’ pakuti muli naye Mtsogoleri mmodzi amene ndi Khristu.
11 Asi mukurusa pamuri achava muranda wenyu.
Wamkulu pakati panu adzakhala wokutumikirani.
12 Zvino ani nani anozvikwiridzira achaderedzwa; uye ani nani anozvideredza, achakwiridzirwa.
Pakuti aliyense amene adzikuza adzachepetsedwa, ndipo aliyense amene adzichepetsa adzakuzidwa.
13 Asi mune nhamo, vanyori neVaFarisi, vanyepedzeri! Nokuti munopfigira vanhu ushe hwekumatenga; nokuti imwi hamupindi, zvekare hamutenderi vanopinda kupinda.
“Tsoka kwa inu aphunzitsi amalamulo ndi Afarisi achiphamaso! Mumatseka pa khomo la kumwamba kuti anthu asalowemo. Eni akenu simulowamo komanso simulola kuti ena amene akufuna kulowa kuti alowe.
14 Mune nhamo, vanyori neVaFarisi, vanyepedzeri, nokuti munodya dzimba dzechirikadzi, uye muchiita mano-mano eminyengetero mirefu; naizvozvo muchagamuchira kutongwa nekupfuurisa.
Muli ndi tsoka, inu aphunzitsi amalamulo ndi Afarisi, anthu achiphamaso! Mumawadyera akazi amasiye chuma chawo, kwinaku nʼkumanamizira kunena mapemphero ataliatali. Chifukwa cha zimenezi Mulungu adzakulangani koposa.
15 Mune nhamo, vanyori neVaFarisi, vanyepedzeri, nokuti munopoteredza gungwa nenyika kuzoita umwe atendeuke kuva muJudha; kana ava saizvozvo, munomuita mwanakomana wegehena kukunda imwi kaviri. (Geenna g1067)
“Tsoka kwa inu, aphunzitsi amalamulo ndi Afarisi, achiphamaso! Mumayenda maulendo ambiri pa mtunda ndi pa nyanja kuti mutembenuze munthu mmodzi, ndipo akatembenuka, mumamusandutsa kukhala mwana wa gehena kawiri kuposa inu. (Geenna g1067)
16 Mune nhamo, vatungamiriri vakapofumara, munoti: Ani nani anopika netembere, hachisi chinhu, asi ani nani anopika negoridhe yetembere, ane ngava.
“Tsoka kwa inu, atsogoleri akhungu! Mumati, ‘Ngati wina alumbira kutchula Nyumba ya Mulungu, zilibe kanthu; koma ngati wina alumbira kutchula ndalama zagolide za mʼNyumbayo, wotere ayenera kusunga lumbiro lake.’
17 Mapenzi nemapofu! Nokuti chikuru ndechipi: Goridhe, kana tembere inoita goridhe rive dzvene?
Inu akhungu opusa! Chopambana nʼchiyani: ndalama zagolide, kapena Nyumba imene imayeretsa golideyo?
18 Uye: Ani nani anopika nearitari, hachisi chinhu; asi ani nani anopika nechipo chiri pamusoro payo, ane ngava.
Ndiponso mumati, ‘Ngati wina alumbira kutchula guwa lansembe, sizitanthauza kanthu; koma ngati wina alumbira kutchula mphatso ya paguwa lansembe, wotere ayenera kusunga lumbiro lake.’
19 Mapenzi nemapofu! Nokuti chikuru ndechipi: Chipo, kana aritari inoita chipo chive chitsvene?
Inu anthu akhungu! Chopambana nʼchiyani: mphatso, kapena guwa limene limayeretsa mphatsoyo?
20 Naizvozvo anopika nearitari, anopika nayo nezvese zviri pamusoro payo.
Chifukwa chake, iye amene alumbira kutchula guwa alumbira pa ilo ndi pa chilichonse chili pamenepo.
21 Neanopika netembere, anopika nayo, neanogara mairi.
Ndipo iye wolumbira potchula Nyumba ya Mulungu alumbira pa Nyumbayo ndi pa Iye amene amakhala mʼmenemo.
22 Neanopika nedenga, anopika nechigaro cheushe chaMwari, neanogara pamusoro pacho.
Ndipo iye wolumbira kutchula kumwamba alumbira kutchula mpando waufumu wa Mulungu ndi pa Iye wokhalapo.
23 Mune nhamo, vanyori neVaFarisi, vanyepedzeri, nokuti munopa chegumi cheminte neadhiri nekumini, muchirega zvakakosha zvemurairo zvinoti: Mutongo netsitsi nekutendeka; izvi zvakafanira kuita nekusarega zvimwe.
“Tsoka kwa inu, aphunzitsi amalamulo ndi Afarisi, achiphamaso! Mumapereka chakhumi cha timbewu tonunkhira ndi cha timbewu tokometsera chakudya. Koma mwasiya zofunikira kwambiri za mʼmalamulo monga chilungamo, chifundo ndi kukhulupirika. Muyenera kuchita zomalizirazi komanso osasiya zoyambazo.
24 Vatungamiriri vakapofumara, munomimina runyunyu, muchimedza kamera.
Atsogoleri akhungu inu! Mumachotsa kantchentche mu chakumwa chanu koma mumameza ngamira.
25 Mune nhamo, vanyori neVaFarisi, vanyepedzeri! Nokuti munonatsa kunze kwemukombe nekwendiro, asi mukati muzere neupambi nekusazvidzora.
“Tsoka kwa inu, aphunzitsi amalamulo ndi Afarisi achiphamaso! Mumayeretsa kunja kwa chikho ndi mbale, koma mʼkatimo mwadzaza ndi dyera ndi kusadziretsa.
26 MuFarisi wakapofumara, tanga kunatsa mukati memukombe nendiro, kuti kunze kwazvo kugochenawo.
Afarisi akhungu! Poyamba tsukani mʼkati mwa chikho ndi mbale, ndipo kunja kwake kudzakhalanso koyera.
27 Mune nhamo, vanyori neVaFarisi, vanyepedzeri! Nokuti makafanana nemarinda akadzudzurwa kuitwa machena, anoonekwa akanaka zvirokwazvo kunze, asi mukati muzere nemafupa evakafa netsvina yese.
“Tsoka kwa inu, aphunzitsi amalamulo ndi Afarisi, achiphamaso! Muli ngati ziliza pa manda zowala kunja zimene zimaoneka zokongola koma mʼkatimo mwadzaza mafupa a anthu akufa ndi zonyansa zina zonse.
28 Saizvozvo nemwi munoonekwa kunze makarurama kuvanhu, asi mukati muzere neunyepedzeri neuipi.
Chimodzimodzinso, kunja mumaoneka kwa anthu kuti ndinu olungama koma mʼkatimo ndinu odzaza ndi chinyengo ndi zoyipa zina.
29 Mune nhamo, vanyori neVaFarisi, vanyepedzeri! Nokuti munovaka marinda evaporofita, nekushongedza makuva evakarurama,
“Tsoka kwa inu, aphunzitsi amalamulo ndi Afarisi, achiphamaso! Mumamanga ziliza za aneneri ndi kukongoletsa manda a olungama.
30 muchiti: Dai taiva pamazuva emadzibaba edu, tingadai tisina kugoverana navo paropa revaporofita.
Ndipo mumati, ‘Ngati tikanakhala mʼmasiku a makolo athu sitikanakhetsa nawo magazi a aneneri.’
31 Saka munopupura nezvenyu kuti muri vanakomana vevakauraya vaporofita.
Potero mukutsimikiza kuti muli ana a iwo amene anapha aneneri.
32 Nemwi chizadzisai chiyero chemadzibaba enyu!
Dzazani inu muyeso wa uchimo wa makolo anu!
“Njoka inu! Ana amamba! Mudzachithawa bwanji chilango cha gehena? (Geenna g1067)
34 Naizvozvo, tarirai, ini ndinotumira kwamuri vaporofita nevakachenjera nevanyori; vamwe vavo vamuchauraya nekuvaroverera pamuchinjikwa; vamwe vavo vamucharova netyava mumasinagoge enyu, nekushusha muguta nemuguta.
Choncho ndi kutumizirani aneneri ndi anthu anzeru ndi aphunzitsi. Ena a iwo mudzawapha ndi kuwapachika; ena mudzawakwapula mʼmasunagoge anu ndi kuwafunafuna kuchokera mudzi wina kufikira wina.
35 Kuti kuuye pamusoro penyu ropa rese rakarurama, rakateurirwa panyika, kubva paropa raAberi wakarurama, kusvikira paropa raZakaria, mwanakonana waBharakia, wamakauraya pakati petembere nearitari.
Ndipo magazi onse a olungama amene anakhetsedwa pansi pano, kuyambira magazi a Abele, olungama kufikira Zakariya mwana wa Barakiya, amene munamupha pakati pa Nyumba ya Mulungu ndi guwa lansembe, adzakhala pa inu.
36 Zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwamuri: Izvi zvese zvichauya pamusoro pezera iri.
Zoonadi, ndikuwuzani kuti zonsezi zidzafika pa mʼbado uno.
37 Jerusarema! Jerusarema! Iwe unouraya vaporofita, nekutaka nemabwe avo vanotumwa kwauri! Ndakange ndichida kazhinji sei kuunganidza vana vako, semhambo inounganidza hukwana dzayo muzasi memapapiro, asi hamuna kuda.
“Haa! Yerusalemu, Yerusalemu, iwe amene umapha aneneri ndi kugenda miyala amene atumidwa kwa iwe, kawirikawiri ndimafuna kusonkhanitsa ana ako, monga nkhuku imasonkhanitsira ana ake pansi pa mapiko ake, koma iwe sunafune.
38 Tarirai, imba yenyu yasiiwa kwamuri riri dongo.
Taona, nyumba yako yasiyidwa ya bwinja.
39 Nokuti ndinoti kwamuri: Hamuchatongondioni kubva zvino, kusvikira muchiti: Wakaropafadzwa anouya muzita raIshe.
Chifukwa chake ndikuwuza kuti simudzandionanso kufikira pamene mudzati, ‘Wodala Iye amene akudza mʼdzina la Ambuye.’”
