Matthew 12
1 At that time Jesus went through the fields on the Sabbath day; and his disciples, being in need of food, were taking the heads of grain.
Mu mazuva awo Kereste ava kuhita mu mawa mwi zuva lye Pumulo. Balutwana bakwe vava fwile izaala mi chi vatanga ku totola zikunku, ni kulya.
2 But the Pharisees, when they saw it, said to him, See, your disciples do that which it is not right to do on the Sabbath.
Kono linu Vafalisi hava vona kuti; Chi va cho kuti kwa Kereste, “Voone, valutwana va ko kwete kuchola mulawo mwi zuva lye Pumulo.”
3 But he said to them, Have you no knowledge of what David did when he had need of food, and those who were with him?
Kono Kereste cha wamba ku vali, “Kana ka mwini kuvala za vapangi Daafita, ha vali kufwile inzala, mi vakwame va vali kwina naye?
4 How he went into the house of God and took for food the holy bread which it was not right for him or for those who were with him to take, but only for the priests?
Mwa vayendeli mwi zuuvo ye Reeza mi chalya chinkwa chivena kwateni, kena avali cha mulawo kuti alye, hape kena chivali cha mulawo kwavo va vena naye, mi ku vali mulawo ku vali valuti?
5 Or is it not said in the law, how the Sabbath is broken by the priests in the Temple and they do no wrong?
Kana kena mu va vali mu mulawo, kuti mwi zuva lye Pumulo valuti mwi tempele va cholanga mulawo we Pumulo mi ka vena mulandu?
6 But I say to you that a greater thing than the Temple is here.
Kono ni cho kwenu kuti mu kulwana yo hita kereke zonse kwena.
7 But if these words had been in your minds, My desire is for mercy and not for offerings, you would not have been judging those who have done no wrong.
Kambe chi muvali kwizi, 'Ni lakaza chisemo mi isinyi chitavelo,' ni musena mu va nyansi va sa foseze.
8 For the Son of man is lord of the Sabbath.
Chokuti Mwan'a Muntu nji Kereste we Pumulo.”
9 And he went from there into their Synagogue:
Linu Kereste cha funduka ku yenda mi cha yenda mu zivaka zavo za malapelelo. Mu lindile, kuvena mukwame ya va zuminine yiyanza.
10 And there was a man with a dead hand. And they put a question to him, saying, Is it right to make a man well on the Sabbath day? so that they might have something against him.
Vafalisi chi va vuuza Jesu, chi vati, “Kana ku swanela kuhoza lye Pumulo?” kuti va wanine ha teni inzila yi cho kuti wa tenda chivi.
11 And he said to them, Which of you, having a sheep, if it gets into a hole on the Sabbath day, will not put out a helping hand and get it back?
Jesu na cho ku vali, “Muntu mwi ve njeni kwenu kuti ave ni ngu yi mwina, mi heva kuti iyi ngu iwila mwilindi mwi zuva lye Pumulo, ke se wi tuse ni kwi zwiisa?
12 Of how much more value is a man than a sheep! For this reason it is right to do good on the Sabbath day.
Mu ku ve vule ni vutokwa kuti muntu ahite ngu! Ni hakuvavulyo kulukela ku va mulawo wa kutenda vulotu mwi zuva lye Pumulo.”
13 Then said he to the man, Put out your hand. And he put it out, and it was made as well as the other.
Linu Jesu cha ti ku mukwamwe, “Wolole yanza lyanko.” Cha li wolola, mi cha vo zekezwa makete, sina nji limwi yi yanza.
14 But the Pharisees went out and made designs against him, how they might put him to death.
Kono va Falisi chi vazwa hanze mi chi va ka muveteka. Va vali ku ka vulola nzila mwe se va mwi hayile.
15 And Jesus, having knowledge of this, went away from there, and a great number went after him; and he made them all well,
Kono Jesu heziva, cho volela mu masule. Vungi bwe nyangela vu va mwi chilile, mi cha va honza bonse.
16 Ordering them not to give people word of him:
Cho va layela kuti sanzi va mwi zi vahazi ku va mwi,
17 So that what was said by Isaiah the prophet might come true,
iyo iwoleka ku va niti, ku wamana ni chi va wambwa kwa Isaya wa mupolofita, ku cho,
18 See my servant, the man of my selection, my loved one in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my Spirit on him, and he will make my decision clear to the Gentiles.
“Vone, Iwe mutang'a ngu uni va keti; yini suuni, yiye kwali luhuho lwangu lu va mushukelyi. Ka ni vike kwali Luhuho lwangu, mi ka huweleze inkatulo ku Machava.
19 His coming will not be with fighting or loud cries; and his voice will not be lifted up in the streets.
Keti na hondane kamba ku huweleza hahulu; mane nangati zumwi vulyo kuti azuwe linzwi lyakwe mu makululu.
20 The crushed stem will not be broken by him; and the feebly burning light will he not put out, till he has made righteousness overcome all.
Ke se na chole impee yitengeme; ke se na zimise mu muni usa zwisi vuusi, konji pili cha tumina inkatulo kuti nje yikome.
21 And in his name will the Gentiles put their hope.
Mi va Machava konji chi va kolwisisa mwi ziina lyakwe.”
22 Then they took to him one with an evil spirit, who was blind and had no power of talking: and he made him well so that he had the power of talking and seeing.
Linu zumwi yo fwile menso ni chimumu, wi nji hilwe madimona, ava letwa kwa Kereste. Cha mu haza, che kalavo yi cho kuti chimumu chiwambe ni ku vonna.
23 And all the people were surprised and said, Is not this the Son of David?
Inyangela yonse chi ya komokwa mi chi ya ti, “Kana kuti uzu muntu mwan'a Daafita?”
24 But the Pharisees, hearing of it, said, This man only sends evil spirits out of men by Beelzebub, the ruler of evil spirits.
Kono linu va Falisi ha va zuwa imakazo, chi vati, “Uzu muntu ka hindiki madimona konji cha Veelzebub, mu kulwana wa madimona”
25 And having knowledge of their thoughts he said to them, Every kingdom having division in itself is made waste, and every town or house having division in itself will come to destruction.
Kono Jesu ave zivi milelo yavo mi cha ti ku vaali, “Umwi ni umwi muvuso ukawuhene hakati uwo wi ne ka wu wanike kuti u shinyiwa, mi muleneñi ni muleneñi kapa izuuvo yi ka wuhene hakati yiyo yine ke se ni zimane hamwina.
26 And if Satan sends out Satan, he makes war against himself; how then will he keep his kingdom?
Heva Javulusi na hindika Javulusi, U li ka wuhenye hakati eye mwine. Kana uwo muuso ka wu kuzimane vule?
27 And if I by Beelzebub send evil spirits out of men, by whom do your sons send them out? So let them be your judges.
Mi heva ni hindika madimona cha Veelzevule, cwale nji mwi zina lyani valutwana mu va hindikila? Vakeñi che zi, ka va ve vaatuli venu.
28 But if I by the Spirit of God send out evil spirits, then is the kingdom of God come on you.
Kono heva Ni tanda madimona cha Luhuho lwa Simwine Reeza, linu muvuso we Reeza wize hewulu lyenu.
29 Or how may one go into a strong man's house and take his goods, if he does not first put cords round the strong man? and then he may take his goods.
Mi kwiza vule kuti zumwi wi njila muzuvo ya muntu wina ziiho mi wiiva zibya za mwi zuuvo na sa sumini mukwame yo kolete lye tanzi? Linu cwale mweve zibya za kwe mwi zuuvo.
30 Whoever is not with me is against me; and he who does not take part with me in getting people together, is driving them away.
Yiye ya sa zimene name uni toyete, mi yiye ya sa likopanyi name u hasana.
31 So I say to you, Every sin and every evil word against God will have forgiveness; but for evil words against the Spirit there will be no forgiveness.
Kuzwaho Ni cho kwenu niti, chivi chonse ni ku nyasilizwa ka zi swalelwe bantu, kono nyefulo zonse ku wamana ni Luhuho ke se ni kuve ni swalelo.
32 And whoever says a word against the Son of man, will have forgiveness; but whoever says a word against the Holy Spirit, will not have forgiveness in this life or in that which is to come. (aiōn g165)
Mi vonse va wamba linzwi lifusahele ku Mwan'a Muntu, ka va swalelwe kwali. Kono vonse va wamba kunyasiliza Luhuho lu Njolola, ke se ni va swalelwe, ni heva munu mwifasi, ni heva mwifasi likeza. (aiōn g165)
33 Make the tree good, and its fruit good; or make the tree bad, and its fruit bad; for by its fruit you will get knowledge of the tree.
U wola kutenda isamu vulotu ni zichelantu za teni kapa isamu kufwa ni zichelantu za teni kufwa, kakuti isamu lizivahala cha zi chelantu za teni.
34 You offspring of snakes, how are you, being evil, able to say good things? because out of the heart's store come the words of the mouth.
Yinwe vaana va zihili, kuzwaho mwina vuuvi, mu woola vule ku wamba zilotu? Kakuti ku zwililila kunkulo kaholo kawamba.
35 The good man out of his good store gives good things; and the evil man out of his evil store gives evil things.
Muntu yo shiyeme u zwisa chimbule chilotu kuzwililila kunkulo, mi muntu u fosahele u zwiisa chimbule chi fosahele ku zwililila kwikulo yakwe.
36 And I say to you that in the day when they are judged, men will have to give an account of every foolish word they have said.
Mi ni milwilite kuti mwi zuva lwe katulo bantu ka va ve ni bwikalavelo ku linzwi ni linzwi li va va wamba.
37 For by your words will your righteousness be seen, and by your words you will be judged.
Cho kuti cha maanzwi yenu ka mu wane ku shemuviwa, mi cha manzwi yenu ka mu hewe mulandu.”
38 Then some of the scribes and Pharisees, hearing this, said to him, Master, we are looking for a sign from you.
Linu va mwi vañoli ni va Falisi chi vetava Jesu mi chi vaati, “Muluti, tu likumbuta ku vona chisupo chi zwa kwako.
39 But he, answering, said to them, An evil and false generation is looking for a sign; and no sign will be given to it but the sign of the prophet Jonah:
Kono Jesu che tava naati kuvali, “Mu vilala ni lusika lusangu lu lola vulyo chisupo. Kono ka kwina chisupo chense chi vonwe konji chisupo cha Joona wa mupolofita.
40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the stomach of the great fish, so will the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
Chokuti Joona ave kali mazuva otatwe ni masiku otatwe mwi vuumo lye inswi yikulite, mi na ye Mwan'a Muntu mwe kale mazuva otatwe ni masiku otatwe mwi kulo ye faasi.
41 The men of Nineveh will come up in the day of judging and give their decision against this generation: because they were turned from their sins at the preaching of Jonah; and now a greater than Jonah is here.
Vaanakwame va munzi wa Nenive ka va zimane kwi katulo ni lusika lunu lwa suunu mi ka lunyanswe. Chokuti mu va sikuluhi chekutazo ya Joona, mi voone, zumwi mukulana kwa Joona kwena hanu.
42 The queen of the South will come up in the day of judging and give her decision against this generation: for she came from the ends of the earth to give ear to the wisdom of Solomon; and now a greater than Solomon is here.
Simwine wa mukulwakazi yo zwa kwa Mbowela ka zimane ni lusika lunu lwa suunu ni ku watulwa. U kazwila ku ma mani mani ye kanda ku keza kwi za kuzuwa za vutali bya Solomoni, mi voone, zumwi mukulwana kwa Solomoni kwena hanu.
43 But the unclean spirit, when he is gone out of a man, goes through dry places looking for rest, and getting it not.
Linu cwale luhuho luvilala haluzwa ku muntu ku yenda, lu yenda muzivaka zi sena menzi mi lu lola chi vaka cha ku pumula kono ka chi waniki.
44 Then he says, I will go back into my house from which I came out; and when he comes, he sees that there is no one in it, but that it has been made fair and clean.
Linu lu wamba kuti, 'Mu ni vole kuzuvo yangu ku ni vali kuhala.' Ha lu voola, lu ka wana kuti inzuvo yikulitwe hande mi ni ku vikwa hande.
45 Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits worse than himself, and they go in and make it their living-place: and the last condition of that man is worse than the first. Even so will it be with this evil generation.
Linu luyenda ni ku ka hinda zimwi yihuho zi kwanisa yiyaza ni tovele ku hita lyetanzi, mi yonse ni yenza kuhala mwateni. Linu mayemo a muntu ava mavilala kuhita lye tanzi. Mu ku ve vulyo vu vilala ni ku lusika lunu lwa sunu.”
46 While he was still talking to the people, his mother and his brothers came, desiring to have talk with him.
Haho Jesu na si kwete ku wamba ku chilundwamanje, muvone, vanyina ni vanche va va zimene hanze ni va saka ku wamba kwali.
47 And one said to him, See, your mother and your brothers are outside, desiring to have talk with you.
Zuumwi chati kwali, “Voone, va nyoko ni va chanko va zimene hanze, va sa ka ku wamba kwako.”
48 But he in answer said to him who gave the news, Who is my mother and who are my brothers?
Linu Jesu che tava mi naati kwali ya va mu wambili, “Njeni Mayo? Mi nji vaani va chevangu?”
49 And he put out his hand to his disciples and said, See, my mother and my brothers!
Linu cha wolola yi yanza lya kwe ku va lutwana mi cha ti, “Voone, ava nji va mayo ni va chevangu!
50 For whoever does the pleasure of my Father in heaven, he is my brother, and sister, and mother.
Chokuti yense wi chilila intato ya Taayo wina kwiwulu, uzo muntu mwa changu, mi nji nchizyangu mi nji maayo.”
