Marko 11
1 Walipokaribia Yerusalemu, wakafika Bethfage na Bethania katika Mlima wa Mizeituni. Yesu akawatuma wawili wa wanafunzi wake,
And when they were drawing near to Jerusalem and to Bethania at the mount of Olives, he sendeth two of his disciples,
2 akawaambia, “Nendeni katika kijiji kilichoko mbele yenu. Na hapo mtakapoingia kijijini, mtamkuta mwana-punda amefungwa hapo, ambaye hajapandwa na mtu bado. Mfungueni, mkamlete hapa.
And saith to them: Go into the village that is over against you, and immediately at your coming in thither, you shall find a colt tied, upon which no man yet hath sat: loose him, and bring him.
3 Kama mtu yeyote akiwauliza, ‘Mbona mnamfungua?’ Mwambieni, ‘Bwana anamhitaji, na atamrudisha hapa baada ya muda mfupi.’”
And if any man shall say to you, What are you doing? say ye that the Lord hath need of him: and immediately he will let him come hither.
4 Wakaenda, wakamkuta mwana-punda amefungwa kando ya barabara, karibu na mlango wa nyumba.
And going their way, they found the colt tied before the gate without, in the meeting of two ways: and they loose him.
5 Walipokuwa wanamfungua, watu waliokuwa wamesimama karibu wakawauliza, “Mna maana gani mnapomfungua huyo mwana-punda?”
And some of them that stood there, said to them: What do you loosing the colt?
6 Wakawajibu kama vile Yesu alivyokuwa amewaagiza, nao wale watu wakawaruhusu.
Who said to them as Jesus had commanded them; and they let him go with them.
7 Kisha wakamleta huyo mwana-punda kwa Yesu na kutandika mavazi yao juu yake, naye akampanda.
And they brought the colt to Jesus; and they lay their garments on him, and he sat upon him.
8 Watu wengi wakatandaza mavazi yao barabarani, na wengine wakatandaza matawi waliyokuwa wamekata mashambani.
And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down boughs from the trees, and strewed them in the way.
9 Kisha wale waliokuwa wametangulia mbele na wale waliokuwa wakifuata nyuma wakapaza sauti, wakisema, “Hosana!” “Amebarikiwa yeye ajaye kwa Jina la Bwana!”
And they that went before and they that followed, cried, saying: Hosanna, blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
10 “Umebarikiwa Ufalme unaokuja wa baba yetu Daudi!” “Hosana kwake yeye aliye juu!”
Blessed be the kingdom of our father David that cometh: Hosanna in the highest.
11 Yesu akaingia Yerusalemu na kwenda Hekaluni. Akaangalia kila kitu kilichokuwamo, lakini kwa kuwa ilishakuwa jioni, akaenda zake Bethania pamoja na wale kumi na wawili.
And he entered into Jerusalem, into the temple: and having viewed all things round about, when now the eventide was come, he went out to Bethania with the twelve.
12 Kesho yake walipokuwa wakitoka Bethania, Yesu alikuwa na njaa.
And the next day when they came out from Bethania, he was hungry.
13 Akauona mtini kwa mbali, naye akaenda ili aone kama ulikuwa na matunda. Alipoufikia, akakuta una majani tu, kwa kuwa hayakuwa majira ya tini.
And when he had seen afar off a fig tree having leaves, he came if perhaps he might find any thing on it. And when he was come to it, he found nothing but leaves. For it was not the time for figs.
14 Akauambia ule mti, “Tangu leo mtu yeyote asile kamwe matunda kutoka kwako.” Wanafunzi wake walimsikia akisema hayo. (aiōn g165)
And answering he said to it: May no man hereafter eat fruit of thee any more for ever. And his disciples heard it. (aiōn g165)
15 Walipofika Yerusalemu, Yesu akaingia katika eneo la Hekalu, akaanza kuwafukuza wale waliokuwa wakinunua na kuuza humo ndani. Akazipindua meza za wale waliokuwa wakibadilisha fedha, na pia viti vya wale waliokuwa wakiuza njiwa,
And they came to Jerusalem. And when he was entered into the temple, he began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the chairs of them that sold doves.
16 wala hakumruhusu mtu yeyote kuchukua bidhaa kupitia ukumbi wa Hekalu.
And he suffered not that any man should carry a vessel through the temple;
17 Naye alipokuwa akiwafundisha, akasema, “Je, haikuandikwa kuwa: “‘Nyumba yangu itaitwa nyumba ya sala kwa mataifa yote’? Lakini ninyi mmeifanya kuwa ‘pango la wanyangʼanyi.’”
And he taught, saying to them: Is it not written, My house shall be called the house of prayer to all nations? But you have made it a den of thieves.
18 Viongozi wa makuhani na walimu wa sheria wakapata habari hizi, nao wakaanza kutafuta njia ya kumuua, kwa kuwa walikuwa wakimwogopa, kwa sababu umati wote ulikuwa unashangazwa na mafundisho yake.
Which when the chief priests and the scribes had heard, they sought how they might destroy him. For they feared him, because the whole multitude was in admiration at his doctrine.
19 Ilipofika jioni, Yesu na wanafunzi wake wakatoka nje ya mji.
And when evening was come, he went forth out of the city.
20 Asubuhi yake walipokuwa wakipita, wakauona ule mtini umenyauka kutoka juu hadi kwenye mizizi yake.
And when they passed by in the morning they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
21 Petro akakumbuka na kumwambia Yesu, “Rabi, tazama! Ule mtini ulioulaani umenyauka!”
And Peter remembering, said to him: Rabbi, behold the fig tree, which thou didst curse, is withered away.
22 Yesu akawajibu, “Mwaminini Mungu.
And Jesus answering, saith to them: Have the faith of God.
23 Amin, nawaambia, mtu yeyote atakayeuambia mlima huu, ‘Ngʼoka ukatupwe baharini,’ wala asione shaka moyoni mwake, bali aamini kwamba hayo asemayo yametukia, atatimiziwa.
Amen I say to you, that whosoever shall say to this mountain, Be thou removed and be cast into the sea, and shall not stagger in his heart, but believe, that whatsoever he saith shall be done; it shall be done unto him.
24 Kwa sababu hiyo nawaambia, yoyote mtakayoyaomba mkisali, aminini ya kwamba mmeyapokea, nayo yatakuwa yenu.
Therefore I say unto you, all things, whatsoever you ask when ye pray, believe that you shall receive; and they shall come unto you.
25 Nanyi kila msimamapo kusali, sameheni mkiwa na neno na mtu, ili naye Baba yenu aliye mbinguni awasamehe ninyi makosa yenu. [
And when you shall stand to pray, forgive, if you have aught against any man; that your Father also, who is in heaven, may forgive you your sins.
26 Lakini kama ninyi msiposamehe, wala Baba yenu aliye mbinguni hatawasamehe ninyi makosa yenu.]”
But if you will not forgive, neither will your Father that is in heaven, forgive you your sins.
27 Wakafika tena Yerusalemu, na Yesu alipokuwa akitembea Hekaluni, viongozi wa makuhani, walimu wa sheria pamoja na wazee wa watu wakamjia.
And they come again to Jerusalem. And when he was walking in the temple, there come to him the chief priests and the scribes and the ancients,
28 Wakamuuliza, “Unafanya mambo haya kwa mamlaka gani? Na ni nani aliyekupa mamlaka ya kufanya hayo?”
And they say to him: By what authority dost thou these things? and who hath given thee this authority that thou shouldst do these things?
29 Yesu akawajibu, “Nitawauliza swali moja. Nijibuni, nami nitawaambia ni kwa mamlaka gani ninafanya mambo haya.
And Jesus answering, said to them: I will also ask you one word, and answer you me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.
30 Niambieni, je, ubatizo wa Yohana ulitoka mbinguni au kwa wanadamu?”
The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men? Answer me.
31 Wakahojiana wao kwa wao, wakisema, “Kama tukisema, ‘Ulitoka mbinguni,’ atatuuliza, ‘Mbona hamkumwamini?’
But they thought with themselves, saying: If we say, From heaven; he will say, Why then did you not believe him?
32 Lakini tukisema, ‘Ulitoka kwa wanadamu,’…” (Waliwaogopa watu, kwa sababu kila mtu aliamini kwamba Yohana alikuwa nabii wa kweli.)
If we say, From men, we fear the people. For all men counted John that he was a prophet indeed.
33 Kwa hiyo wakamjibu Yesu, “Hatujui.” Naye Yesu akawaambia, “Wala mimi sitawaambia ni kwa mamlaka gani ninatenda mambo haya.”
And they answering, say to Jesus: We know not. And Jesus answering, saith to them: Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
