< Matthew 21 >

1 When they came near to Jerusalem and came to Bethsphage, to the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,
Ka koro ne gichiegni chopo Jerusalem, bangʼ chopo Bethfage manie Got Zeituni, Yesu nooro jopuonjrene ariyo,
2 saying to them, “Go into the village that is opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Untie them and bring them to me.
kowachonegi niya, “Dhiuru e dala man nyimu cha kendo udhi yudo mapiyo kanyna moro motwe kuno ka nyathine ni bute kanyo; gonygiuru mondo ukelnagi.
3 If anyone says anything to you, you shall say, ‘The Lord needs them,’ and immediately he will send them.”
Ka ngʼato owachonu gimoro amora to unyise ni Ruoth dwarogi, kendo gikanyono obiro miyougi mondo ukelnagi.”
4 All this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying,
Mano notimore mondo ochop gima nowachi gi dho janabi kama:
5 “Tell the daughter of Zion, behold, your King comes to you, humble, and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.”
“Nyisuru nyar Sayun niya, ‘Nee, Ruodhi biro iri, obiro komuol, kendo koidho kanyna; koidho kanyna matin, adier en mana nyathi punda.’”
6 The disciples went and did just as Jesus commanded them,
Jopuonjre nodhi motimo kaka Yesu nochikogi.
7 and brought the donkey and the colt and laid their clothes on them; and he sat on them.
Negikelone kanyna gi nyathi kanyna, kendo negiketo lepgi e ngʼegi, mi Yesu nobet kuomgi.
8 A very great multitude spread their clothes on the road. Others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road.
Oganda maduongʼ nopedho kodegi e yo, to jomoko to nongʼado bede yiende, kendo gin bende negi pedhogi e yo.
9 The multitudes who went in front of him, and those who followed, kept shouting, “Hosanna to the son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!”
Oganda mane otelo nyime kod mago mane odongʼ chien nekok ni, “Hosana ne Wuod Daudi!” “Ogwedh ngʼat mabiro e nying Jehova Nyasaye!” “Hosana manie polo malo!”
10 When he had come into Jerusalem, all the city was stirred up, saying, “Who is this?”
Kane Yesu odonjo Jerusalem to dala duto ne iye osakni kendo ji nopenjore kendgi niya, “Ma to ngʼa?”
11 The multitudes said, “This is the prophet, Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.”
To oganda nodwokogi niya, “Ma en Yesu, janabi moa Nazareth, e piny Galili.”
12 Jesus entered into the temple of God and drove out all of those who sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the money changers’ tables and the seats of those who sold the doves.
Yesu nodonjo ei hekalu mi noriembo oko joma ne ngʼiewo kendo uso gik moko kanyo. Noloko mesni mag jowil pesa ataro kod kombe mag joma ne uso akuche, kendo
13 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!”
nowachonegi niya, “Ondiki ni, ‘Oda noluongi ni od lamo,’to un to uloke ‘kar chokruok mar jomecho.’”
14 The lame and the blind came to him in the temple, and he healed them.
Muofni gi rongʼonde nobiro ire e hekalu kendo nochangogi.
15 But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children who were crying in the temple and saying, “Hosanna to the son of David!” they were indignant,
To ka jodolo madongo gi jopuonj chik noneno gik miwuoro mane otimo, kendo ka nyithindo kok ei hekalu niya, “Hosana ne Wuod Daudi,” chunygi nokethore.
16 and said to him, “Do you hear what these are saying?” Jesus said to them, “Yes. Did you never read, ‘Out of the mouth of children and nursing babies, you have perfected praise’?”
Negipenje niya, “Bende iwinjo gima nyithindogi wacho?” Yesu nodwokogi niya, “Ee, awinjo. Kare pok usomo kama wacho ni, “‘Ne isechano mondo nyithindo kod nyithindo mayom omiyi pak’?”
17 He left them and went out of the city to Bethany, and camped there.
Omiyo noweyogi, mowuok odhi e dala maduongʼ mar Bethania, kuma ne oninde otienono.
18 Now in the morning, as he returned to the city, he was hungry.
Kinyne kogwen kane oyudo en e yo odok Jerusalem, kech ne kaye.
19 Seeing a fig tree by the road, he came to it and found nothing on it but leaves. He said to it, “Let there be no fruit from you forever!” Immediately the fig tree withered away. (aiōn g165)
Ka noneno yiend ngʼowu moro e bath yo, nobaro kochomo yien-no, to ne ok oyudo gimoro amora kuome, makmana ite. Eka nowachone niya, “Kik ichak inyag olemo kendo!” Gikanyono yien-no noner. (aiōn g165)
20 When the disciples saw it, they marveled, saying, “How did the fig tree immediately wither away?”
Kane jopuonjre oneno gima notimoreno, ne giwuoro, ka gipenjore niya, “Ere kaka yadh ngʼowuni ne oner mapiyo kamano?”
21 Jesus answered them, “Most certainly I tell you, if you have faith and don’t doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you told this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ it would be done.
To Yesu nodwokogi niya, “Awachonu adier ni ka un gi yie ma uonge gi kiawa, to ok unyal mana timo gima ne otim ne ngʼowuni, to unyalo bende wacho ne godni ni, ‘Dhiyo mondo inyumri e nam,’ kendo notimre kamano.
22 All things, whatever you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.”
Ka uyie to unuyud gimoro amora mukwayo kulamo.”
23 When he had come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to him as he was teaching, and said, “By what authority do you do these things? Who gave you this authority?”
Yesu nodonjo e laru mar hekalu, kendo kane oyudo opuonjo, jodolo madongo gi jodong oganda nobiro ire. Negipenje niya, “Itimo gigi gi teko mane, koso ngʼa momiyi teko ma in-goni?”
24 Jesus answered them, “I also will ask you one question, which if you tell me, I likewise will tell you by what authority I do these things.
Yesu nodwokogi niya, “Abiro penjou penjo achiel. Ka udwoka, to abiro nyisou teko ma atimogo gigi.
25 The baptism of John, where was it from? From heaven or from men?” They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will ask us, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’
Uparo ni batiso mar Johana noa kanye. Noa e polo, koso noa kuom dhano?” Negiwuoyo kuom wachni e kindgi giwegi kendo giwacho niya, “Ka wawacho ni, ‘Noa e polo,’ to obiro penjowa ni, ‘ka en kamano to angʼo momiyo nutamoru yie kuome?’
26 But if we say, ‘From men,’ we fear the multitude, for all hold John as a prophet.”
To ka wawacho ni, ‘Noa kuom dhano,’ to waluoro ji nimar giduto gikawo ni Johana ne en janabi.”
27 They answered Jesus, and said, “We don’t know.” He also said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.
Omiyo negidwoko Yesu niya, “Ok wangʼeyo.” Eka nowachonegi niya, “An bende ok abi nyisou kuma agole teko ma atimogo gigi.
28 But what do you think? A man had two sons, and he came to the first, and said, ‘Son, go work today in my vineyard.’
“Uparo nade? Ne nitie ngʼato moro mane nigi yawuowi ariyo. Nodhi ir mokwongo mowachone ni, ‘Kawuono dhi iti e puoth mzabibu.’
29 He answered, ‘I will not,’ but afterward he changed his mind, and went.
“To nodwoko ni, ‘Ok abi dhi.’ Kata kamano bangʼe achien noloko pache mi odhi.
30 He came to the second, and said the same thing. He answered, ‘I’m going, sir,’ but he didn’t go.
“Eka wuon-gino nodhi ir wuowi machielo monyise gima nonyiso wuowi mokwongo. To en nodwoko ni, ‘Abiro dhi, jaduongʼ, to ne ok odhi.’”
31 Which of the two did the will of his father?” They said to him, “The first.” Jesus said to them, “Most certainly I tell you that the tax collectors and the prostitutes are entering into God’s Kingdom before you.
Yesu nopenjogi niya, “Kuom yawuowi ariyogi, mane manotimo gima wuon-gi ne dwaro?” Negidwoke niya, “Wuowi mokwongo.” Yesu nowachonegi niya, “Awachonu adier ni josol osuru gi jochode kuongonu donjo e pinyruodh Nyasaye.
32 For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you didn’t believe him; but the tax collectors and the prostitutes believed him. When you saw it, you didn’t even repent afterward, that you might believe him.
Nimar Johana nobiro iru mondo onyisu yor tim makare, to ne ok uyie kuome, kata obedo ni josol osuru gi jochode to noyie kuome. Kendo kata bangʼ neno mano, pod ne udagi lokoru mondo uyie kuome.
33 “Hear another parable. There was a man who was a master of a household who planted a vineyard, set a hedge about it, dug a wine press in it, built a tower, leased it out to farmers, and went into another country.
“Winjuru ngero machielo. Ne nitie wuon puodho moro mane opidho mzabibu e puothe. Nochiele gi ohinga, mi okunyo bugo mibiyoe olemo mochiek e iye, kendo ogero ne osuch ngʼicho. Eka ne oketo puothe mar mzabibuno e lwet jopur moko, bangʼe nowuok odhi e wuoth moro mabor.
34 When the season for the fruit came near, he sent his servants to the farmers to receive his fruit.
Kane kinde keyo koro chiegni, nooro jotichne ir jorit puothego mondo oomne olembe mowuok e puothe.
35 The farmers took his servants, beat one, killed another, and stoned another.
“To jopur puodhogo nomako jotichnego mi ogoyo achiel, to machielo ginego to mar adek gichielo gi kite.
36 Again, he sent other servants more than the first; and they treated them the same way.
Eka nochako ooro jotich mamoko irgi; jotich mangʼeny moloyo mago mane ooro mokwongo, kendo gin bende negitimonegi machalre.
37 But afterward he sent to them his son, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’
Mogik tik ne ooro negi wuode, koparo ni, ‘Wuoda to gibiro miyo luor.’
38 But the farmers, when they saw the son, said among themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him and seize his inheritance.’
“To ka jopur puodhogo noneno wuod wuon puodho, negiwacho e kindgi giwegi ni, ‘Ma e jacham girkeni. Biuru mondo wanege mondo girkeni odongʼnwa.’
39 So they took him and threw him out of the vineyard, then killed him.
Omiyo negimake mi gidire oko mar puoth mzabibu kendo neginege.
40 When therefore the lord of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those farmers?”
“Koro, uparo ni ka wuon puoth mzabibu obiro to angʼo mobiro timo ne jopur puothego?”
41 They told him, “He will miserably destroy those miserable men, and will lease out the vineyard to other farmers who will give him the fruit in its season.”
Negidwoke niya, “Obiro nego joma achachgo gi nek marach bangʼe oketo puothe mar mzabibuno e lwet jopur mamoko, manyalo miye olembege, ka kinde keyo ogik.”
42 Jesus said to them, “Did you never read in the Scriptures, ‘The stone which the builders rejected was made the head of the corner. This was from the Lord. It is marvelous in our eyes’?
Yesu nowachonegi niya, “Donge usesomo Ndiko mawacho niya, “‘Kidi mane jogedo odagi osedoko kidi motegno moriwo kor ot, Jehova Nyasaye ema osetimo mano, kendo en gima iwuoro ka waneno?’
43 “Therefore I tell you, God’s Kingdom will be taken away from you and will be given to a nation producing its fruit.
“Emomiyo anyisou ni pinyruodh Nyasaye ibiro gol kuomu kendo mi oganda machielo ma biro nyago olemo mare.
44 He who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but on whomever it will fall, it will scatter him as dust.”
Ngʼato angʼata mopodho kuom kidino notur matindo tindo, to ngʼatno ma kidino ogore kuome noregre ka buru.”
45 When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they perceived that he spoke about them.
Ka jodolo madongo gi jo-Farisai nowinjo ngeche mag Yesu, negingʼeyo ni gin ema nowuoyo kuomgi.
46 When they sought to seize him, they feared the multitudes, because they considered him to be a prophet.
Negichako manyo yo mane ginyalo makego, to negiluoro oganda, nikech ji nokawe ni en janabi.
