< Matthew 19 >

1 When Jesus had finished these words, he departed from Galilee and came into the borders of Judea beyond the Jordan.
Linu chikwa sika inako Jesu ha mana awo mazwi, ni cha zwa mwa Galilea, linu choya ku museto wa Judea uvena mwi shila lya lwizi lwa Jorodani.
2 Great multitudes followed him, and he healed them there.
Ikunga lya batu bangi niba mwichilile, linu chaka va hozeza kwateni.
3 Pharisees came to him, testing him and saying, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any reason?”
Mafalisi ni chibeza kwali, kwiza kumulika, “kana ku woleka kuti mukwame akauhane ni mwihyabwe kabu kavo bonse?”
4 He answered, “Have not you read that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female,
Jesu nabe tava kuti, “kana mubavali iye mwine yaba vapangi kuzwa ku matangilo aba vapangi mukwame ni mwakazi?
5 and said, ‘For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall be joined to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh’?
Mukuti iye yaba vapangi avati kuti, 'chebaka mukwame mwa siye chivaka chibesi ni ba nyina aka kopane ni mwihyavwe?'
6 So that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, do not let man tear apart.”
Linu boveree muvabe muntu umwina mwi nyama. Linu chava kopanyi Ireeza hamwina, kanji nikuvi niyete nachi kauhanye.”
7 They asked him, “Why then did Moses command us to give her a certificate of divorce and divorce her?”
Chiva wamba kwali, “chizi Mushe hava tulayi kuti uswanela ku hewa iñolo lye kauhano niku muhindika?”
8 He said to them, “Moses, because of the hardness of your hearts, allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it has not been so.
Nicha betava kuti, “bakenyi chaku kukutuhala kwe kulo zenu Mushe aba mizuminini ku kawuhana ni bamwi hyenwanwe kono kuzwa kumatangilo keena ivali nji zila iyo.
9 I tell you that whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery; and he who marries her when she is divorced commits adultery.”
Ikumbya nimi wambila buniti, yense yo kana mwihyavwe isi ka mulandu wabu sangu, nikusesa wungi mwakazi upanga bushahi. Hape mukwame yosensa mwanakazi yava kanwa upanga bushahi.”
10 His disciples said to him, “If this is the case of the man with his wife, it is not expedient to marry.”
Balutwana chiva ti kwa Jesu, “Haiva mukwi kalille mona bulyo bulotu bakwame ni banakazi kanji basesi ni kuseswa.”
11 But he said to them, “Not all men can receive this saying, but those to whom it is given.
Jesu nicha wamba kuvali nati, kahena muntu yese yo wola kuzumina zinu zikwetwe kurutwa, kono haisi avo va zumina kutambula icho.
12 For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother’s womb, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs who made themselves eunuchs for the Kingdom of Heaven’s sake. He who is able to receive it, let him receive it.”
Kakuti kwina ba shalondo bava zalwa bovulyo kuzwa mu mavumu ava nyinavo. Imi vamwi ba shalondo bava pangwa ni vantu vamwi. Imi vamwi chevaka lyamusevezi wa muvuso we wulu. Iye yoo wola kutambula ituto atambule”
13 Then little children were brought to him that he should lay his hands on them and pray; and the disciples rebuked them.
Linu vahwile zana nichi va letwa kwali ili kuti avike mayaza akwe hewulu lyavo niku valapelela. Kono balutwana vakwe nichi babakalimela.
14 But Jesus said, “Allow the little children, and do not forbid them to come to me; for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to ones like these.”
Kono Jesu nati kuti, “kanji muva kanisa kwiza kwangu, kakuti muuso we wulu wa vantu va swana navo.”
15 He laid his hands on them, and departed from there.
Kuzwaho ni chava vika maza, ni chazwa havali.
16 Behold, one came to him and said, "Good teacher, what good thing shall I do, that I may have consummate (aiōnios g166) life?"
Mubone, mukwame wumwi cheza kwa Jesu ni chata kuti, “Muruti, chizi chilotu chini lukela ku tenda ili kuti niwane buhalo busamani?” (aiōnios g166)
17 He said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good but one, that is, God. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments.”
Jesu chata kwali, “chizi hotenda kuti uni buza zintu zilukite? Yeke muntu njolukite, kono haiva usaka kwinjila mukati ka vuhalo, zwile habusu kubika itayelo.”
18 He said to him, “Which ones?” Jesus said, “‘You shall not murder.’ ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ ‘You shall not steal.’ ‘You shall not offer false testimony.’
Mukwame chamu vuza ni chati, “Njezihi itaelo?” Jesu ni chati, “Kanji wi hayii, kanji uvukii, kanji wivii, kanji upaki indaba za mapa,
19 ‘Honor your father and your mother.’ And, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’”
uhe ikute venso niva nyoko, usake yo vambene naye sina moli molisakila.”
20 The young man said to him, “All these things I have observed from my youth. What do I still lack?”
Mutangana nata kwali, “Zose izo zintu niba zikuteki. Hape muni sakezi?”
21 Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.”
Jesu ni chati, “haiva usaka kuva yo maninize, yende, kauze zose zo kwete, uka zihe ba sukulukite, mi iwe move ni chifumu kwi wulu, kuzwaho zoni chilile,”
22 But when the young man heard this, he went away sad, for he was one who had great possessions.
Mutngana chinga zuwa bulyo kwa Jesu, nayenda na swavite ahulu, kakuti abali nji zumwi ba vena mazimo achifumu.
23 Jesus said to his disciples, “Most certainly I say to you, a rich man will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven with difficulty.
Jesu ni chata kuva Lutwana vakwe, “ikumbya nimi wambila, ku kukutu ahulu ku muntu yo fumite kwi njila mu mubuso we wulu.
24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through a needle’s eye than for a rich man to enter into God’s Kingdom.”
Hape nimi wambila bu sakusima kuti, kuhuva Inkamele kwi njila che linso lye naliti kuhita mufumi kuti enjile mu mubuso we Ireeza.”
25 When the disciples heard it, they were exceedingly astonished, saying, “Who then can be saved?”
Linu valutwana ha zuwa bulyo, Linu chiva makala tota hava zuwa bulyo niku ta kuti, “Nji vani bente niva hazwe?”
26 Looking at them, Jesus said, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
Jesu nicha ba lola niku ta kuti, “ku vantu kazi woleki, kwe Reeza zintu zonse ziwoleka.”
27 Then Peter answered, “Behold, we have left everything and followed you. What then will we have?”
Linu Pitorosi niche tava nati, “mubone, tuva siyi zintu zose nitwa kwichilila. Linu kuzwaho mutu wane chituzi?”
28 Jesus said to them, “Most certainly I tell you that you who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of Man will sit on the throne of his glory, you also will sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
Jesu nawamba ku vali nati, “Ikumbya nimi wambila, inwe muva chilili ime, muku zalwa chiha mwana mutu chake kala ha chihuna che kanya yakwe, nanwe bulyo mumu kekale hazi huna zina ikumi nizo vele, mukava vaatuli baka atula mishovo ina ikumi ni yovere ba mushobo wama Isilaele.
29 Everyone who has left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, will receive one hundred times, and will inherit consummate (aiōnios g166) life.
Wumwi ni wumwi yava siyi mazuvo, mizwale, bachizye, vesi, banyina, bana vakwe, mane ni mawa ke vaka lyangu, ka tambule zilukela kuva mwanda wi zwile niku wola buhalo busa mani. (aiōnios g166)
30 But many will be last who are first, and first who are last.
Kono bangi bena kumatangilo muvave kuma maninizo, hape bangi vena kuma maninizo muvave ku matangilo.
