Mataayi 21
1 U Yesu na vavulanisivua vaake ye valipipi kufika ku Yelusalemu vakafika mu likaaja ilya Betifage, pa idunda ikya Miseituni, U Yesu akavasuung'ha avavulanisivua vavili,
When they drew near to Jerusalem and came to Bethsphage, at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples ahead,
2 akavavula akati,”Mulute mu kikaaja kino kilikuvulongolo kulyumue, mukujaagha idogovi jikungilue, jilininyaake mwavule mundetele.
telling them, “Go into the village ahead of you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied there and a colt with it. Untie them and bring them to me.
3 Nave umuunhu ikuvaposia, mutisaghe, u Mutwa alinuvufumbue naso,'ghwope pe kyaikuvitikisiakukwisa naso”
If anyone says anything to you, say, ‘The Lord has need of them.’ And immediately he will send them.”
4 Isi silyavombike kukwilanisia ilisio lino lilyajovilue nu m'bilikuuti,
Now all this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken through the prophet:
5 vavuule avaanhu ava mulikaaja ilya Syoni, kuuti Lolagha, UNtwa ghwinu ikwisa, Nkoola ikwisa angaliile idogovi, pakyanya pa dogovi, inyaanavija dogovi.
“Say to the daughter of Zion, ‘Behold, yoʋr king is coming to yoʋ, humble and mounted on a donkey, and a colt, the foal of a beast of burden.’”
6 Avavulanisivua vakaluta vakavomba ndavule u Yesu aveele avalaghile.
So the disciples went and did just as Jesus had directed them.
7 Vakaleta idogovi jila palikimo ni nyanaake, vakatandika amenda ghaave pakyanya pa dogovi, u Yesu akangalila.
They brought the donkey and the colt and laid on them their garments, and Jesus sat on them.
8 Avaanhu vinga mu lipugha lila vakava vitandika amenda ghaave musila.
A very large crowd spread their garments on the road, and others cut down branches from the trees and also spread them on the road.
9 Ilipugha lya vaanhu vano valyalongwile na vano valyale mumbele mwa Yesu vakaava ni njeghelo, ija lukelo viiti,”Aghinwaghe u Mwana ghwa David! Afunyilue juno ikwisa mu litavua lya Mutwa u Nguluve. Aghinwaghe u Nguluve juno alikukyanya!”
The crowds that went ahead of him and those that followed were crying out, “Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!”
10 U Yesu ye ikwingila mu likaaja ilya Yelusalemu, avaanhu ava mulikaaja ilio vakadegha kyongo, Vakava viposia viiti,”Uju ghwe veeni?
As he came into Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred up, saying, “Who is this?”
11 “Avaanhu mu lipugha lila vakavamula vakati,”Uju ghwe m'bili u Yesu, kuhuma mulikaaja ilya Galilaya.”
So the crowds were saying, “This is the prophet Jesus, who is from Nazareth of Galilee.”
12 U Yesu ye alimulikaaja ilya Yelusalemu akingila mu luviika ulwa nyumba inyimike ija kufunyila akavadagha vooni vano vakaghusiagha na kughula ifiinu. Akabilivandula imeesa isa vano vananiagha indalama ni fitengo ifya vaghusia ng'hunda.
Then Jesus entered the courts of God's temple and drove out all who were selling and buying there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who were selling doves.
13 U Yesu akavavula akati,”Lilembilue mu malembe a Mimike kuuti,'Inyumba jango jitambuluagha nyumba ja kufunyila,'Neke umue muhambwile kuuva mhanga ja valyasi.”
And he said to them, “It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a den of robbers.”
14 U Yesu ye ali mu luviika lwa nyumba inyimike ija kufunyila, avabofu amaaso na valema amaghulu vakaluta pa mwene akavasosia.
Then the lame and the blind came to him in the temple courts, and he healed them.
15 Avavaha va vatekesi na vavulanisi va ndaghilo vakafyagha ifidegho fino avobile u Yesu, na kupulika vuule avaana vikumughinia mu nyumba inyimike ija kufunyila viiti,”Aghinwaghe u Mwana ghwa David,”mu uluo vakakalala kyongo.
But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that he did and the children crying out in the temple courts, “Hosanna to the Son of David,” they were indignant
16 Vakamposia u Yesu vakati,”Ghupulika sino avaana ava vijova? u Yesu akavamula akati,”Eena nipulika! Namwimbile mumalembe aMimike amasio ghano ghiiti,'Mu masio agha vaana avadebe na vafyele mwe muno uling'hanisie amalumbo?'”
and said to him, “Do yoʋ hear what these children are saying?” Jesus said to them, “Yes, have you never read, ‘Out of the mouths of babies and nursing infants yoʋ have prepared praise’?”
17 U Yesu akaleka avaanhu vaala akavuka mu Yelusalemu akaluta ku kikaaja ikya Betania akava ukuo ikilo jooni.
And leaving them, he went out of the city to Bethany and spent the night there.
18 Palwakilo u Yesu ye igomoka ku Yelusalemu, injala jikam'bava.
Early in the morning, as Jesus was returning to the city, he was hungry.
19 Pe akaghwagha umpiki untini ghumonga piipi ni sila. Akaveela, akavona nsila fipeke nambe kimo looli ghalimatundu gheene. Pe akaghuvuula umpiki ghula akati,”Kuhuma umusyughu naghukomagha ifipeke nambe padebe.”Na kalingi umpiki ghula ghukuuma. (aiōn g165)
Seeing a lone fig tree by the road, he came to it and found nothing on it but leaves. Then he said to it, “May there never be any fruit from yoʋ again!” And at once the fig tree withered. (aiōn g165)
20 Avavulanisivua va Yesu ye vasivwene isio vakadegha kyongo vakamposia vakati,”Lwandani umpiki untini ughu ye ghwumile lino lino?”
When the disciples saw it, they were amazed, saying, “How did the fig tree wither all at once?”
21 U Yesu akamula akati,”Kyang'hani nikuvavulamungave nu lwitiko kisila kuuva ni nganinganib, na jumue munoghile kuvomba sino nivombile ku mpiki ughu, Na kwekuuti ndepoonu muvomba sisisio seene, looli nambe mungakivuule ikidunda iki kuuti,'kumuka ghutaaghe mu nyanja,'livombeka.
Jesus answered them, “Truly I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only will you do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ it will happen.
22 Mungave nu lwitiko, fyoni fino musuuma kwa Nguluve, huvilagha kuuti mupelua.”
And if you have faith, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.”
23 U Yesu akingila kange mu nyumba inyimike ija kufunyila, ye ivulanisia avaanhu avavaha va vatekesi na vagoyo va Vayahudi vakaluta pa mwene vakamposia vakati,”Ghuvomba isi mu vutavulilua vwani? Ghwe veeni juno akupeliile uvutavulilua uvuo?
When he entered the temple courts, the chief priests and the elders of the people came up to him as he was teaching and said, “By what authority are yoʋ doing these things? And who gave yoʋ this authority?”
24 U Yesu akamula akati,”Na juune nikuvaposia lumonga munganyamule pe na juune nikuvavuula nivomba isi mu vutavulilua vwani.
Jesus answered them, “I will also ask you one question. If you tell me the answer, I will also tell you by what authority I am doing these things.
25 Asi, uvutavulilua vwa Yohani uvwa kwofugha avaanhu vulyahumile kwani? Vulyahumile kwa Nguluve ku vaanhu? Pe vakatengula kuposania viiti, tungati vulyahumile kwa Nguluve kyaikutumposia iiti,'Ongo namulyamwitike?'
Where did John's authority to baptize come from? From heaven or from men?” So they discussed it among themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say to us, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’
26 Kange tungati, vulyahumile ku vaanhu tukwoghopa ilipugha ili, ulwakuuva vooni vatang'hinie uYohani kuuti m'bili.”
But we are afraid of what the crowd might do if we say, ‘From men,’ for everyone regards John as a prophet.”
27 Pe vakamwamula uYesu vakati, “Natukagwile.”Ghwoope u Yesu akavamula akati,”Na juune nanikuvavuula kuno vuhuma uvutavulilua vwa kuvomba isi.”
So they answered Jesus, “We do not know.” Then he said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.
28 U Yesu akavavuula kange akati, muvona ndani imhola iji? Kwe alyale umuunhu jumonga juno alyale na vaana vavili. Akaluta kwa mwana ghwa kwanda,'akam'bulaakatiMwanango, umusyughu ulute kuvomba imbombo ku mughunda ghwa sabibu.
“But what do you think? A man had two sons. He went to his first son and said, ‘Son, go work today in my vineyard.’
29 U mwana jula akamwamula akati,'Baali, nanilutaPambele akandula amasaghe ghaake akaluta kuvomba imbombo.
His son answered, ‘I will not,’ but afterward he changed his mind and went.
30 Umuunhu jula akaluta kwa mwana ughwa vuvili akam'bula ndavule aveele am'bule ughwa kwanda. Akamwamula akati,'Eena niluta, Neke naakaluta.
Then the man went to his second son and said the same thing. His second son answered, ‘I will go, sir,’ but he did not go.
31 Mu vaana vavili vala ghwe veeni juno alyavombile uvughane vwa viise? Vakamwamula vakati,”Ughwa kwanda.”u Yesu akavavula akati, Kyang'hani nikuvavuula avasongesia songo na vaghendamwalu vilikuvalongolela kukwingila ku vutwavwa Nguluve.
Which of the two did the will of his father?” They said to him, “The first.” Jesus said to them, “Truly I say to you, tax collectors and prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God ahead of you.
32 Ulwakuuva u Yohani alisile kulyumue kuuti avalungike isila ija vugholofu, looli avasongesia songo na vaghendamwalu valyamwitike, nambe ye musivwene sooni isio namulyalatile inyivi siinu na kukwupila imhola jaake.
For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but tax collectors and prostitutes believed him. Yet even after you saw it, you did not change your minds and believe him.
33 Pulikisia nivavuule ikihwanikisio ikingi. Pwealyale umuunhu jumonga alyalimile umughunda akavyala isabibu, Akajenga uluvigho kusyuta umughunda ghwoni, munkate akajenga apa kuhujila isabibu, kange akajenga pa vwimo apa kulolelelela umughunda, akaviika avavombi mu mughunda ghula neke umwene akakyula.
“Listen to another parable: There was a master of a house who planted a vineyard, put a fence around it, dug a winepress in it, built a tower, leased it to farmers, and left the country.
34 Unsiki ughwa kupeta ye ghufikile, akasung'ha avakami vaake ku vavombi vaala kuuti vantolele ilighavo lyake ilya mpeto.
When the season for fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the farmers to receive his fruit.
35 Neke avavombi vala vakavakola avakami vala vano vasung'hilue, jumo vakantova, ujunge vankam'buda, jumonga vakantova na mavue.
But the farmers seized his servants; they beat one, killed another, and stoned yet another.
36 Unyamughunda juula akavasung'ha kange avakami avange vinga kukila vano alyavasung'hile ulwa kwanda, Avavombi vala vakavavomba avakami avuo ndavule ava kwanda.
Again he sent other servants, more than the first group. But the farmers treated them in the same way.
37 Kuvusililo akavasung'ha umwanaake jujuo, akasagha akati,'Umwanango uju kyavikumwoghopagha.'
Last of all, he sent them his son, saying, ‘They will have respect for my son.’
38 Neke avavombi vala ye vamwaghile umwana ghwa nya mughunda, vakapuling'hana vakati,'Uju ghwe nya vuhaasi, ghwa mughunda ughu tum'bude neke tutoole uvuhaasi vwake.
But when the farmers saw the son, they said among themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and take possession of his inheritance.’
39 Vakankola, vakankwesela kunji ku mughunda ughwa sabibu vakam'buda.
So they took him, threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him.
40 U Yesu akavaposia akati, lino unyamughunda jula kyande ikwisa kyaikuvavova kiki avavombi vala?
Now when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those farmers?”
41 Aveene vakamwamula vakati,”Ikuvam'buda kisila kukuvavonela ikisa avahosi vala kange umughunda ghwake ikuvaviika avavombi avange vano vikumpelagha ilighavo lyake ilya mpeto unsiki ghuno ghunoghile.
They said to him, “He will bring those wretches to a wretched end and lease the vineyard to other farmers who will give him the fruits in their seasons.”
42 U Yesu akavavuula kange akati,”Namwimbile mumalembe aMimike kuuti,'Ilivue lino avajengi valyalikanile lye livue ilivaha ilya panguto u Mutwa u Nguluve ghwe mwene avombile ili kange lya kugegha pamaaso ghitu?'
Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the Scriptures, ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; this was the Lord's doing, and it is amazing in our eyes’?
43 Mu uluo nikuvavuula kuuti, u Nguluve ivusia uvutwa vwake kulyumue na kukuvapeela avaanhu va iisi isingi vano vivomba isa vughane vwake.
Therefore I tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people who will produce its fruit.
44 Umuunhu angaghue pa livue ilio idenyeng'hana, kange umuunhu ghweni lingamughwile, likudinyania lwoni.”
He who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but anyone on whom it falls will be crushed.”
45 Avavaha va vatekesi na vafalisayi ye vapulike ifihwanikisio fya Yesu vakakagula kuuti ikuvajoova aveene.
When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard Jesus' parables, they knew he was speaking about them.
46 Pepeno vakalondagha kukunkola neke vakoghopa ilipugha, ulwakuuva avaanhu valyantang'hinie u Yesu kuuti m'bili.
Although they were looking for a way to arrest him, they were afraid of the crowds, because the people regarded him as a prophet.
