Mateyo 7
1 “Kamutomboloshanga banenu, kwambeti nenjamwe Lesa akabule kumombolosha.
"Do not judge, so that you won't be judged.
2 Momukute komboloshela banenu, mopelomo nenjamwe Lesa mweti akamomboloshele. Kayi mwelo ngomukute kusebenshesha pakombolosha, mwelo wopelowo nukasebensheshewe pali njamwe.
For with whatever judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you.
3 Mukute kuboneconi kantu kang'ana kali mulinso mwamunobe, kotayeye omwine cishiki cili mulinso lyakobe?
And why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?
4 Ngaumwambileconi munobeti, ‘Tubone ndikufunye kantu mulinso,’ Kakuli obe mulinso mwakobe muli cishiki?
Or how will you tell your brother, 'Let me remove the speck from your eye;' and look, the log is in your own eye?
5 Obe wandemi shibili! nanshi tatika kufunya cishiki ico cili mu linso lyakobe, empowelela kubona cena ne kukafunyamo kantu kali mulinso lyamunobe.
You hypocrite. First remove the log out of your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck out of your brother's eye.
6 “Kamutapa bakabwa bintu bya Lesa, pakwinga ingabamubwelela ne kwisa kumuluma. Nambi kuwalila nkumba mikanda yamalungu, pakwinga nishikalwataulowa.”
"Do not give that which is holy to the dogs, neither throw your pearls before the pigs, or they will trample them under their feet and turn and tear you to pieces.
7 Senga nakamupe, langaula nimukacane, kukonkosha nibakamucalwile cisasa.
"Ask, and it will be given to you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you.
8 Ee, muntu lasengenga winga kupewa, muntu lalangaulunga winga kucicana, kayi muntu lakonkoshonga bakute kumucalwila cisasa.
For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.
9 Niyani pakati penu amwe bamashali welela kupa libwe mwanendi lasenge shinkwa?
Or who is there among you, who, if his son will ask him for bread, will give him a stone?
10 Nambi usenga lunswi, ngamumupa njoka sena?
Or if he will ask for a fish, who will give him a serpent?
11 Lino amwe ne kwipa kwenuku, mucinshi kupa banabenu bintu byaina, kulyeconi kuli Bameshenu bakwilu, sena ngabalilwa kupa bintu byaina kuli balamusengenga?
If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him.
12 Neco, mubintu bili byonse mbyomulayandangeti bantu bamwinshile, mwelela nanshi amwe kubenshila byopelebyo. Pakwinga uku ekukwanilisha milawo ya Mose, ne biyisho bya bashinshimi.
Therefore whatever you desire for people to do to you, so also you should do to them; for this is the Law and the Prophets.
13 Kamwingililani mwakulipakatisha pacishinga cing'ana. Pakwinga cishinga cilatwalanga ku lufu ni cinene, ne nshila yatandabala ne bantu balapitingamonga nibagi.
"Enter in by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many are those who enter in by it.
14 Nomba cishinga cakuya kwingila kubuyumi nica kulipakatisha, ne nshila yakendi yayuma kwendamo, nabo balendengamonga nibang'ana.
How narrow is the gate, and difficult is the way that leads to life. Few are those who find it.
15 Kamucenjelani ne bashinshimi bandemi shibili. Bakute besanga kulinjamwe kababoneka babomba myoyo eti mbelele. Nomba mukati balyeti baumpe bansala.
"Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves.
16 Nimukabeshibile ku bisepo byabo. Sena bitondo bya myunga ngabisema minyansa? Sena ingamucana nkuyu ku kankolong'onso?
By their fruits you will know them. Do you gather grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles?
17 Citondo caina cikute kusema bisepo byaina, nomba citondo caipa cikute kusema bisepo byaipa.
Even so, every good tree produces good fruit; but the corrupt tree produces evil fruit.
18 Citondo caina nkacelela kusema bisepo byaipa sobwe, nambi citondo caipa kusema bisepo byaina nkacinshiki pimbi.
A good tree cannot produce evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree produce good fruit.
19 Citondo ciliconse citaseme bisepo byaina bakute kucitimbula ne kuciwala pa mulilo.
Every tree that does not grow good fruit is cut down, and thrown into the fire.
20 Neco, bantu nimukabeshibile kuncito shabo.
Therefore, by their fruits you will know them.
21 “Nteye muntu lambangoweti, ‘Nkambo, Nkambo,’ Eti akengile mu Bwami bwa kwilu sobwe, nsombi uyo lenshinga ncobalayandanga Bata ba kwilu.
Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
22 Pabusuba bwakomboloshewa bantu bangi nibakambengeti, ‘Nkambo, Nkambo!’ Sena afwe ntetwali kukambauka mu lina lyenu? Twalikucikonsha kupulisha mishimu yaipa pakusebenshesha lina lyenu, mu lina lyenu kayi twalikwinsa bishikukankamanisha.
Many will tell me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, did not we prophesy in your name, in your name cast out demons, and in your name do many mighty works?'
23 Nomba ame ninkabambile pamensotuba kwambeti, ‘nkandimwishipo sobwe, fumani apa!’ Mobeshi kwinsa byaipa.”
And then I will tell them, 'I never knew you. Depart from me, you who practice lawlessness.'
24 “Uliyense lanyumfunga ne kwakonkela maswi akame, welana ndendende ne muntu wamano uyo walebaka ng'anda yakendi palibwe lyacandanshi.
"Everyone therefore who hears these words of mine, and does them, will be compared to a wise man, who built his house on a rock.
25 Kwalaloka mfula, milonga yalesula, lukupwe lwangofu lwalauma kung'anda, nomba ng'anda iliya kuwa sobwe, pakwinga walaibaka palibwe lyacandanshi.”
And the rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.
26 “Nomba uliyense lanyumfunga maswi akame, nsombi kabula kwakonkela, welana ndendende, ne muntu wapunama uyo walebaka ng'anda yakendi pa museya.
And everyone who hears these words of mine, and does not do them will be like a foolish man, who built his house on the sand.
27 Kwalaloka mfula, milonga yalesula, lukupwe lwangofu lwalauma kung'anda, ng'anda yalawa, nomba kuwa kwa ng'andeyo kwalikuba kunene kuyosha.”
And the rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it fell—and great was its fall."
28 Yesu mpwalapwisha kwamba makani awa, bantu bangi balakankamana ne njiyishilo yakendi.
And it happened, when Yeshua had finished saying these things, that the crowds were astonished at his teaching,
29 Pakwinga nkalikubeti beshikwiyisha milawo ya Mose, nsombi nendi walikwiyisha ne ngofu.
for he taught them with authority, and not like their scribes.
