< Matthew 10 >

1 Jesu sì pe àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ méjìlá sí ọ̀dọ̀; ó fún wọn ní àṣẹ láti lé ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ jáde àti láti ṣe ìwòsàn ààrùn àti àìsàn gbogbo.
And he called to himself his twelve disciples, and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every sickness.
2 Orúkọ àwọn aposteli méjèèjìlá náà ni wọ̀nyí: ẹni àkọ́kọ́ ni Simoni ẹni ti a ń pè ni Peteru àti arákùnrin rẹ̀ Anderu; Jakọbu ọmọ Sebede àti arákùnrin rẹ̀ Johanu.
Now the names of the twelve apostles are these. The first, Simon, who is called Peter; and Andrew his brother; and James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother;
3 Filipi àti Bartolomeu; Tomasi àti Matiu agbowó òde; Jakọbu ọmọ Alfeu àti Taddeu;
Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;
4 Simoni ọmọ ẹgbẹ́ Sealoti, Judasi Iskariotu, ẹni tí ó da Jesu.
Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
5 Àwọn méjèèjìlá wọ̀nyí ni Jesu ran, ó sì pàṣẹ fún wọn pé, “Ẹ má ṣe lọ sì ọ̀nà àwọn kèfèrí, ẹ má ṣe wọ̀ ìlú àwọn ará Samaria.
Jesus sent these twelve out, and commanded them, saying, "Do not go among the non-Jews, and do not enter into any city of the Samaritans.
6 Ẹ kúkú tọ̀ àwọn àgùntàn ilé Israẹli tí ó nù lọ.
Rather, go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
7 Bí ẹ̀yin ti ń lọ, ẹ máa wàásù yìí wí pé, ‘Ìjọba ọ̀run kù sí dẹ̀dẹ̀.’
And as you go, proclaim, saying, 'The kingdom of heaven is near.'
8 Ẹ máa ṣe ìwòsàn fún àwọn aláìsàn, ẹ si jí àwọn òkú dìde, ẹ sọ àwọn adẹ́tẹ̀ di mímọ́, kí ẹ sì máa lé àwọn ẹ̀mí èṣù jáde. Ọ̀fẹ́ ni ẹ̀yin gbà á, ọ̀fẹ́ ni kí ẹ fi fún ni.
Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons. Freely you received, freely give.
9 “Ẹ má ṣe mú wúrà tàbí fàdákà tàbí idẹ sínú àpò ìgbànú yín,
Do not take any gold, nor silver, nor copper in your money belts.
10 ẹ má ṣe mú àpò fún ìrìnàjò yín, kí ẹ má ṣe mú ẹ̀wù méjì, tàbí bàtà, tàbí ọ̀pá; oúnjẹ oníṣẹ́ yẹ fún un.
Take no bag for your journey, neither two tunics, nor shoes, nor staff: for the laborer is worthy of his food.
11 Ìlúkílùú tàbí ìletòkíletò tí ẹ̀yin bá wọ̀, ẹ wá ẹni ti ó bá yẹ níbẹ̀ rí, níbẹ̀ ni kí ẹ sì gbé nínú ilé rẹ̀ títí tí ẹ̀yin yóò fi kúrò níbẹ̀.
And into whatever city or village you enter, find out who in it is worthy; and stay there until you go on.
12 Nígbà tí ẹ̀yin bá sì wọ ilé kan, ẹ kí i wọn.
And as you enter into the household, greet it.
13 Bí ilé náà bá sì yẹ, kí àlàáfíà yín kí ó bà sórí rẹ̀; ṣùgbọ́n bí kò bá yẹ, kí àlàáfíà yín kí ó padà sọ́dọ̀ yín.
And if the household is worthy, let your peace come on it, but if it is not worthy, let your peace return to you.
14 Bí ẹnikẹ́ni tí kò bá sì gbà yín, tàbí tí kò gba ọ̀rọ̀ yín, ẹ gbọn eruku ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yín sílẹ̀ tí ẹ bá ń kúrò ní ilé tàbí ìlú náà.
And whoever does not receive you, nor hear your words, as you leave that house or that city, shake off the dust from your feet.
15 Lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín, yóò sàn fún ìlú Sodomu àti Gomorra ní ọjọ́ ìdájọ́ ju àwọn ìlú náà lọ.
Truly I tell you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.
16 “Mò ń rán yín lọ gẹ́gẹ́ bí àgùntàn sáàrín ìkookò. Nítorí náà, kí ẹ ní ìṣọ́ra bí ejò, kí ẹ sì ṣe onírẹ̀lẹ̀ bí àdàbà.
"Look, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, so be cunning as snakes and innocent as doves.
17 Ẹ ṣọ́ra lọ́dọ̀ àwọn ènìyàn nítorí wọn yóò fi yín le àwọn ìgbìmọ̀ ìgbèríko lọ́wọ́ wọn yóò sì nà yín nínú Sinagọgu.
But beware of people: for they will deliver you up to councils, and in their synagogues they will scourge you.
18 Nítorí orúkọ mi, a ó mú yín lọ síwájú àwọn baálẹ̀ àti àwọn ọba, bí ẹlẹ́rìí sí wọn àti àwọn aláìkọlà.
Yes, and you will be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the nations.
19 Nígbà tí wọ́n bá mú yín, ẹ má ṣe ṣàníyàn ohun tí ẹ ó sọ tàbí bí ẹ ó ṣe sọ ọ́. Ní ojú kan náà ni a ó fi ohun tí ẹ̀yin yóò sọ fún yín.
But when they deliver you over, do not be anxious how or what you will say, for it will be given you in that hour what you will say.
20 Nítorí pé kì í ṣe ẹ̀yin ni ó sọ ọ́, bí kò ṣe Ẹ̀mí Baba yín tí ń sọ̀rọ̀ nípasẹ̀ yín.
For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.
21 “Arákùnrin yóò sì fi arákùnrin fún pípa. Baba yóò fi àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ fún ikú pa. Àwọn ọmọ yóò ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí òbí wọn, wọn yóò sì mú kí a pa wọ́n.
"And brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child. Children will rise up against parents, and cause them to be put to death.
22 Gbogbo ènìyàn yóò sì kórìíra yín nítorí mi, ṣùgbọ́n gbogbo ẹni tí ó bá dúró ṣinṣin dé òpin ni a ó gbàlà.
And you will be hated by everyone because of my name, but the one who perseveres to the end will be saved.
23 Nígbà tí wọn bá ṣe inúnibíni sì i yín ní ìlú kan, ẹ sálọ sì ìlú kejì. Lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín, ẹ̀yin kò tì í le la gbogbo ìlú Israẹli já tán kí Ọmọ Ènìyàn tó dé.
But when they persecute you in one city, flee to the other. And if they persecute you in the other, flee to the next. For truly I tell you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel before the Son of Man comes.
24 “Akẹ́kọ̀ọ́ kì í ju olùkọ́ rẹ̀ lọ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ kì í ju ọ̀gá rẹ̀ lọ.
"A disciple is not above the teacher, nor a servant above his lord.
25 Ó tọ́ fún akẹ́kọ̀ọ́ láti dàbí olùkọ́ rẹ̀ àti fún ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ láti rí bí ọ̀gá rẹ̀. Nígbà tí wọ́n bá pe baálé ilé ní Beelsebulu, mélòó mélòó ni ti àwọn ènìyàn ilé rẹ̀!
It is enough for the disciple that he be like his teacher, and the servant like his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more those of his household.
26 “Nítorí náà, ẹ má ṣe bẹ̀rù wọn, nítorí kò sí ohun tó ń bọ̀ tí kò ní í fi ara hàn, tàbí ohun tó wà ní ìkọ̀kọ̀ tí a kò ní mọ̀ ni gbangba.
Therefore do not be afraid of them, for there is nothing covered that will not be revealed; and hidden that will not be known.
27 Ohun tí mo bá wí fún yín ní òkùnkùn, òun ni kí ẹ sọ ní ìmọ́lẹ̀. Èyí tí mo sọ kẹ́lẹ́kẹ́lẹ́ sì etí yín ni kí ẹ kéde rẹ́ lórí òrùlé.
What I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear whispered in the ear, proclaim on the housetops.
28 Ẹ má ṣe bẹ̀rù àwọn tí ó le pa ara nìkan; ṣùgbọ́n tí wọn kò lè pa ẹ̀mí. Ẹ bẹ̀rù Ẹni tí ó le pa ẹ̀mí àti ara run ní ọ̀run àpáàdì. (Geenna g1067)
And do not be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. Rather, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. (Geenna g1067)
29 Ológoṣẹ́ méjì kọ́ ni à ń tà ní owó idẹ wẹ́wẹ́ kan? Síbẹ̀ kò sí ọ̀kan nínú wọn tí yóò ṣubú lu ilẹ̀ lẹ́yìn Baba yin.
"Are not two sparrows sold for an assarion coin? Not one of them falls on the ground apart from your Father's will,
30 Àti pé gbogbo irun orí yín ni a ti kà pé.
but the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
31 Nítorí náà, ẹ má ṣe fòyà; ẹ̀yin ní iye lórí ju ọ̀pọ̀ ológoṣẹ́ lọ.
Therefore do not be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.
32 “Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá jẹ́wọ́ mi níwájú ènìyàn, òun náà ni èmi yóò jẹ́wọ́ rẹ̀ níwájú Baba mi ní ọ̀run.
Everyone therefore who confesses me before people, him I will also confess before my Father who is in heaven.
33 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí ó bá sẹ́ mí níwájú àwọn ènìyàn, òun náà ni èmi náà yóò sọ wí pé n kò mọ̀ níwájú Baba mi ní ọ̀run.
But whoever denies me before people, him I will also deny before my Father who is in heaven.
34 “Ẹ má ṣe rò pé mo mú àlàáfíà wá sí ayé, Èmi kò mú àlàáfíà wá bí kò ṣe idà.
"Do not think that I came to send peace on the earth. I did not come to send peace, but a sword.
35 Nítorí èmi wá láti ya “‘ọmọkùnrin ní ipa sí baba rẹ̀, ọmọbìnrin ní ipa sí ìyá rẹ̀, àti aya ọmọ sí ìyakọ rẹ.
For I came to set a man at odds against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
36 Ará ilé ènìyàn ni yóò sì máa ṣe ọ̀tá rẹ̀.’
And a person's foes will be those of his own household.
37 “Ẹni tí ó bá fẹ́ baba rẹ̀ tàbí ìyá rẹ̀ jù mí lọ, kò yẹ ní tèmi, ẹni tí ó ba fẹ́ ọmọkùnrin tàbí ọmọbìnrin rẹ̀ jù mí lọ, kò yẹ ní tèmi.
Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.
38 Ẹni tí kò bá gbé àgbélébùú rẹ̀ kí ó tẹ̀lé mi kò yẹ ní tèmi.
And whoever does not take his cross and follow after me, is not worthy of me.
39 Ẹni tí ó bá wa ẹ̀mí rẹ̀ yóò sọ ọ́ nù, ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí ó bá sọ ẹ̀mí rẹ̀ nú nítorí tèmi ni yóò rí i.
Whoever seeks his life will lose it; and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
40 “Ẹni tí ó bá gbà yín, ó gbà mí, ẹni tí ó bá sì gbà mí gba ẹni tí ó rán mi.
Whoever receives you receives me, and whoever receives me receives him who sent me.
41 Ẹni tí ó ba gba wòlíì, nítorí pé ó jẹ́ wòlíì yóò jẹ èrè wòlíì, ẹni tí ó bá sì gba olódodo nítorí ti ó jẹ́ ènìyàn olódodo, yóò jẹ èrè olódodo.
The one who receives a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a prophet's reward, and the one who receives a righteous person because he is a righteous person will receive a righteous person's reward.
42 Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá fi ago omi tútù fún ọ̀kan nínú àwọn onírẹ̀lẹ̀ wọ̀nyí mu nítorí tí ó jẹ́ ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn mi, lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín, kò ní pàdánù èrè rẹ̀.”
And whoever gives one of these little ones just a cup of cold water to drink because he is a disciple, truly I tell you he will in no way lose his reward."
