Mataayi 13
1 Ikighono kila kila, uYesu akahuma mu nyumba jila, akaluta, akikala mulubale mu lisumbe.
On that same day, after Jesus had left the house, he took his seat on the seashore;
2 Avaanhu vinga amapugha na mapugha vakaluta, vakakong'haana pa mwene, kuhanga akalamula pikwingila mu ngalava ikikala. Avaanhu vala vakiima kunji ku lisumbe.
and such a great crowd gathered about him that he got into a boat and sat in it, while all the crowd stood on the beach.
3 Pepano akavavuula si nyinga mu fihwanikisio akati, 'Unkesambeju jumonga alyalutile kukesa imbeju.
Then he told them many truths in parables. "Behold," he said, "the sower went forth to sow;
4 Ye ikesa, Imbeju jimonga jikaghua pa sila, injuni sikiisa, sikahola.
and as he sowed, some seed fell by the roadside, and the birds came and ate it.
5 Ijingi jikaghua pa linhalavue, jikamela ng'haning'haani. ulwakuva ilihanga lyale lidebe.
Some fell on rocky ground where there was not much earth. Now because it had no depth of soil, it sprang up at once;
6 ye jimelile ulujuva lukanyaanya, jikuuma, ulwakuva indela sikakunua kukwika paasi.
but when the sun rose it was scorched, and withered away because it had no root.
7 Ijingi jikaghua pa malela gha madasia, jikamela, neke amadasia ye ghakafweta.
Some fell among thorns, and the thorns sprang up and choked it.
8 Ijingi jikaghua pa lihanga ilinofu, jikamele, jukakula na kukoma vunono, jimo ifipeke kilundo, ijingi fijigho ntanda, ijingi fijigho filatu.
But some fell on good soil, and bore a crop, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
9 Unya kupulika, apulikaghe!”
He who has ears, let him hear!"
10 Pepano avavulanusivua vaake vakaluata vakamposia vakati, 'Kiki ghujova na vaanhu mu fihwanikisio?
Now when his disciples came up to him, they said,
11 UYesu akavamula akati, 'Umue uNguluve avapeliile kukagula isa vusyefu uvwa vutwa vwa kukyanya, looli aveene navapelilue uluo.
"Why do you speak to them in parables?" Jesus answered. "To you it has been granted to understand the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven; but to them it has not been granted.
12 Ulwakuva umuunhu ghweni juno ali nu vakagusi vwimila uvutwa vwa Nguluve, ujuo ikwongelesivua. Looli juno nsila vakagusi uvuo, nambe uvukagusi uvudebe vuno ali navwo, ikunyua.
"For whoever holds, to him shall more be given, and he shall have abundance; but whoever does not hold, from him shall be taken away even what he holds.
13 Uluo lwe luno lukumhelela kujova navo mu fihwanikisio, ulwakuva vilola neke navikusivona, vipulikisia neke navipulika nambe kukusitang'hania.
"This is why I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.
14 Isi sivombeka ku veene kukwilanisia sino um'bili uYesaya alyalembile kuuti,'Kupulika, mupulikagha neke namukusitang'haniagha. Kulola, mulolagha neke namukusivonagha.
And in them is being fulfilled that prophecy of Isaiah which says. "Hearing you will hear and not understand; Seeing you will see and not perceive;
15 Ulwakuva avaanhu ava, vasiiti kukwitika. Vadindile imbulughutu saave, vadindile amasio ghaave. Vaale valeke uluo, amasio ghaave ghaale ghilolagha, imbulughutu saave saale sipulikaghe, nagha moojo ghaave ghaale ghikulutang'haniagha. Mu uluo vaale vikusyetukila une, na juune naale nikuvapoka.'
For the heart of his people is made fat, Their ears are dull of hearing; Their eyes, too, have they closed, Lest some day their eyes should perceive, And their ears should hear, And their heart should understand and turn, And I should heal them.
16 “Looli mufunyilue umue, ulwakuva amaso ghiinu ghilola nasi mbulughutu siinu sipulika.
"But happy are your eyes, because they see, and your ears because they hear.
17 Kyang'haani nikuvavuula kuuti kwevalyale avavili na vagholofu vinga vano valyale vilonda kukusivona sino mukusivona umue, neke navalyasivwene. Kange valyale vilonda kupulika sino mupulika umue, neke navalyasipuliika.”
"In solemn truth I tell you that many prophets and holy men have seen it not, and to hear what you are hearing, and have not heard it.
18 “Lino, mupulikisie umuluvo ghwa kihwanikisio ikya nkesambeju,
"Listen then, to the parable of the sower.
19 Pa sila pano imbeju jilyaghwile, ghwe muunhu juno ipuluka ilisio lya vutwa vwa Nguluve neke naikulitang'hania, uMhosi uSetano ikwisa na kutoola kino kivyalilue ghwe munkate mu mwojo ghwake.
"Whenever any one hears the message of the kingdom, and does not understand it, the Evil One comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart.
20 Pa linhalavue, pano imbeju jilyaghwile ghwe muunhu juno ipuluka ilisio lya Nguluve, insiki ughuo ikulyupila nu lukeelo.
"This is the seed sown by the wayside. And the word, and at once receives it with joy.
21 Neke ulwakuva ilisio lila lisila ndela mu mwojo ghwake, igadilila unsiki n'debe, lungavoneke ulutalamu lumonga, nambe isa kumpumusia vwimila ilisio lya Nguluve, neke nakikomaifipeke. unsiki ghughuo ye ikululekagha ulwitiko.
"But he has no root in himself; he continues for a time, but when trouble arises, or persecutions, on account of the word, at once he stumbles and falls.
22 Pa madasia pano imbeju jilyaghwile ghwe muunhu juno ipulika ilisio lya Nguluve, neke imbombo sa mu iisi, kuyasuka vwimila uvukavi vwa kyuma fifweta ilisio, neke nalikoma ifipeke, (aiōn g165)
"And the seed sown among thorns is he who hears the word, but the anxieties of the age and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
23 Looli pa lihanga ilinofu pano imbeju jilyaghwile, ghwe muunhu juno ipulika ilisio lya Nguluve na kukulitang'hania. Ujuo ghwe juno ikoma ifipeke kilundo, ujunge fijigho ntanda, ujunge fijigho filatu”
"But the seed sown in good soil is he who hears the word and understands it, who indeed bears fruit, and makes now an hundredfold, now sixty, now thirty."
24 UYesu akavavuula ikihwanikisio ikingi akati, “uvutwa vwa kukyanya vuhwaniine nu muunhu juno alyavyalile ingano mu mughunda ghwake.
He told them another parable. "The kingdom of heaven," he said, "is like a man who sowed good seed in his field;
25 Neke pakila avaanhu vooni ye vighoni, umulugu ghwake akiisa akavyala ilisoli mu ngano, akavuuka iluta.
"but while men were asleep his enemy came and sowed tares among his wheat and went away.
26 Pambele fyoni fikamela. Ingano yajipongola, ilisoli likatengula pikuvonesia.
"And when the blade shot up and formed the wheat-kernel, then the tares also appeared.
27 Avavombi va muunhu jula unya mughunda vakaluta kukumposia vakati, 'Ghwe ntwa, tukaghwile kuuti ukanyalile ingano mu mughunda ghwako, lino ilisio lila lihumile kuughi?'
"The slaves of the owner went to him and said. "‘Was it not good seed, sir, that you sowed in your field? From whence then, do you get tares?’
28 Umwene akavamula akati, “Umulugu ghwe juno avombile uluo. Avavombi vaake vakamposia vakati, 'Ghulonda tulute tukakulule ilisio ilio/
"‘It is an enemy who has done this,’ he answered. "The slaves said to him, ‘Do you want us to go and collect them?’
29 Umwene akati, 'ndali namungakululaghe, ulwakuva pano mukulula ilisoli ndepoonu mukulula naji ngano.
"‘No,’ he answered, ‘for fear lest while you are collecting the tares, you at the same time pull up the wheat.
30 Muleke fyoni fikulaghe palikimo kuhanga unsiki ghwa kubena. Unsiki ughuo, nilikuvavuula vano vibena kuuti vakong'haniaghe taasi ilisoli na kupinya ifinyagha kuuti finyanyue. Neke ingano vakong'hanie na kuvuta mu kihenge kyango.
"Let both grow together until harvest, and at harvest-time I will tell the reapers to first gather the tares and tie them in bundles for burning, but to bring all the wheat into my store-house.’"
31 UYesu akavavuuka kihwanikisio ikingi akati, 'Uvutwa uvwa kukyanya vuhwanine n mbeju indebe fiijo, jino umuunhu jumonga alyatolile na kuvyala mu mughunda ghwake.
He set forth to them another parable, saying. "The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard-seed which a man took and planted in his field.
32 Napano imbeju ijio ndebe kukila sooni, jingamele, ghuuva mmela nkome kukila amamela ghooni agha nyafu. Ghukula ghuuva mpiki, nasi njuni sitenga ifivwasu mu nhaafi saake.”
"This is indeed the smallest of seeds, but when it is grown it is greater than any herb, and becomes a tree, so that the winged things of the sky come and roost in its branches."
33 UYesu akavavuula ikihwanikisio ikingi akati, 'Uvutwa uvwa kukyanya vuhwaniine ni kilule kino umukijuuva jumonga alyatolile, akakandila ilikandua ilya mateneka ghatatu agha vutine. Ye akandile, ikilule kia kikalusia ilikandua lyoni.'
He told them another parable. He said, "The kingdom of heaven is like leaven which a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, until the whole was leavened."
34 UYesu alyavavulile avaanhu isio sooni mu fihwanikisio. Naakajovagha kimonga ku veene kisila kihwanikisio.
Jesus told all this to the crowd in parables; indeed he never spoke to them except in parables,
35 Akavombagha uluo kukwilanisia ilisio lino alyajovile um'bili kuuti, “Nijovagha na vaanhu mu fihwanikisio. nikuvavulagha sino sifisiime kuhuma Nguluve ipela iisi.”
in fulfilment of the word spoken by the prophet, I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter things kept secret since the foundation of the world."
36 pambele uYesu akahwesia ilipugha lila, akingila mu nyumba. Avavulanisivua vaake vakaluta pa mwene, vakajova vakati, 'Utuvuule umuluvo ghwa kihwanikisio kila ikya lisoli mu mughunda ghwa ngano.'
After he had sent the people away and gone into the house, his disciples came to him and said, "Explain to us the parable about the weeds in the field."
37 UYesu akavamula akati, “Unyakukesa ingano ghwe Mwana ghwa Muunhu.
"The sower of the seed," he answered, "is the Son of man;
38 Umughunda je iisi, ingano ve vaanhu vano vali mu vutwavwa Nguluve, neke ilisoli ve vaanhu ava Mhosi jula.
"the field is the world; the good seed is the sons of the kingdom; the weeds, the sons of the Evil One.
39 Umulugu juno akavyalile ilisoli, ghwe setano. Unsiki ughwa kubena kye kighono kya vusililo vwa iisi, vano vibena ve vanyamhola. (aiōn g165)
"The enemy who sows the weeds is the Devil. The harvest is the end of the age. The reapers are the angels. (aiōn g165)
40 Lino, ndavule ilisoli vule likong'hanisivua na kunyanyua pa mwoto, fye luliiva ikighono ikya vusililo vwa iisi. (aiōn g165)
"Just as the weeds are collected together and burnt with fire, so will it be at the end of the age. (aiōn g165)
41 Une ne Mwana ghwa Muunhu nilisuung'ha avanyamhola vango. vavakong'hanie avaanhu vooni mu vutwa vwango vano vipelela avange kuvomba uvuhosi na vano vivomba uvuhosi.
"The son of man will send forth his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all hindrances, and whoever practises iniquity,
42 Avanyamhola vilililagha avaanhu avuo mu mwoto ghuno naghusima lusiku. Ukuo kwe vilililagha na kugwegwenula aminio ulwakuva vali mu vuvafi uvukome.
"and will throw them into the fiery furnace. There will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.
43 Pe avagholofu vilivalatikagha mu vutwa vwa Nhaata ghwave ndavule ilijuva. Unya kupulika, apulikaghe.
"And then shall the just shine forth like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Let him who has ears to hear, listen!
44 “Uvutwa uvwa kukyanya vuli ndavule ikiinu ikya ndalama nyinga kino kilyafisilue mu mughunda. Neke umuunhu jumonga akakyagha, akafisa vunono. pepano akaluta nu lukeelo kughusia ifiinu fyoni fino alyale nafyo, akaghula umughunda ghula.
"The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure buried in the ground, which a man finds but buries again, and then in his joy goes and sells all that he has and buys that land.
45 Kange, uvutwa uvwa kukyanya vuli ndavule umughusia fiinu jumonga juno akalondagha ilulu jino jaale ja ndalama nyingi.
"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of beautiful pearls.
46 Ye ajaghile ilulu ijio, akaluta kughusia ifiinu fyoni fino alyale nafyo fino alyale nafyo, akaghula.
"When he finds one of great price, he goes and sells everything he has and buys it.
47 “Kange, uvutwa uvwa kukyanya vuli ndavule ulwafu luno avalovi va samaki vakisise mu nyanja. Mu lwafu uvuo sikaghilila isamaki sino sili papinga.
"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was cast into the sea and gathered fish of every kind.
48 Neke ulwafu ye lumemile, avalovi vakakwesela kunji ku nyanja. Pe vakikala paasi, vakakong'hania, isamaki inofu sino vavilia, vakaviika mu fisenje, neke isamaki sino navavilia, vakataagha.
"When it was full they hauled it upon the beach, and sat down and sorted the good fish into baskets, but threw the worthless fish away.
49 Fye luliiva ikighono ikya vusililo vwa iisi. Avanyamhola va Nguluve vilikwisa, vilikuvabaghula, avahosi viliiva paajo na vagholofu. (aiōn g165)
"So will it be at the end of the age. The angels will go forth and separate the wicked from the righteous, and fling them into the furnace of fire. (aiōn g165)
50 Avanyamhola avuo vilikuvataagha avahosi ku mwoto ghuno naghusima lusiku. Ukuo kwe vilililagha na kugwegwenula amiino ulwakuva vali mu vuvafi uvukome.”
"There shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.
51 pepano uyesu akavaposia avavulanisivua vaake akati, 'Asi, musitang'hinie sooni isio sino nivavulile? Aveeni vakamule vakati, “Enena, tusitang'hini.”
"Have you understood all this?" he asked. "We have," they answered him.
52 Pe akavavuula akati, “Lino, um'bulanisi ghwa ndaghilo sa moose juno m'bulanisivua mu vutwavwa kunkyanya, ali ndavule unya nyumba juno ivutula mu kihenge kyake ifiinu ifipia ni fikuulu.”
"Then," said he, "every scribe who has been instructed in the kingdom of heaven is like a householder who brings out of his storehouse new things and old."
53 Uyesu ye amalile kujova ifihwanikisio ifio, akavuuka pala,
After Jesus had finished these parables, he withdrew from that place,
54 akaluta ku kikaaja kyake. Ukuo akatengula kuvulanisia avaanhu mu sinagogi jaave. Avaanhu vala vakadekha, vakaposania viiti, “Umuunhu uju avwaghile kuughi uvukagusi uvu ni ngufu isa kuvomba ifidegho ifi?
and came into his own country, where he continued teaching the people in their synagogues, until they were amazed. "Where did he get such wisdom?" they said, "and such wondrous powers?
55 Asi, uju naghwe mwana ghwa mpululambavo? Ung'ina naghwe juno itambulua Maliya? Nava vanuuna vaake naghwe Yakovo, u Yosefu, u Simoni nu Yuuda?
"Is not this the carpenter’s son? Is not his mother called Mary? and his brothers Jamesand Joseph and Simon and Judas?
56 Asi, avalumbu nave vano tukukalania pa kikaaja apa? Lino, umwene asaghile kuughi sooni isi?”
"Are not his sisters all living among us? Where, then, did he get all these powers?"
57 Mu uluo vakakaana kukumwitika. Pe uYesu akavavuula akati, “Um'bili mwoghopua imbale sooni, ulwene naikwoghopua na vaanhu ava mu kikaaja kyake na mu nyumba jaake.”
This kept them from believing in him. Wherefore Jesus said, "A prophet is not without honor except in his own country and among his own family."
58 Ulwakuva avaanhu vala navalya mwitiike, uYesu naakavomba ifidegho finga kula.
And he did no mighty works there, because of their lack of faith.
