Matthew 22
1 Jesus answered and spoke to them again in parables, saying,
A Yeshu gubhabhelekete nabhonji kabhili kwa lutango bhalinkuti,
2 “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king, who made a wedding feast for his son,
“Upalume gwa kunnungu ushilandana naka mpalume jumo antendele mwanagwe kalamu ja ndowa.
3 and sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding feast, but they would not come.
Bhai, gubhatumile bhatumishi bhabho bhajendangane kukwaatolanga bhashemilwenje ku ndowa, ikabheje bhashemilwenje bhala bhashinkukananga.
4 Again he sent out other servants, saying, ‘Tell those who are invited, “Behold, I have prepared my dinner. My cattle and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready. Come to the wedding feast!”’
Gubhatumile kabhili bhatumishi bhana, bhalinkuti, ‘Mwaalugulilanje bhashemilwenje bhala, kalamu jangu nnaino tayali, malume gangu ga ng'ombe ya jimbala na matumbwe iinjilwe na kila shindu tayali, nnjiyangane ku ndowa.’
5 But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his own farm, another to his merchandise;
Ikabheje bhangaimukanga, gubhaijabhulilenje, juna ku nngunda gwakwe na juna ku indu yakwe nnyene,
6 and the rest grabbed his servants, treated them shamefully, and killed them.
bhananji gubhaakamwilenje bhatumishi bhala nikwatukananga, gubhaabhulegenje.
7 When the king heard that, he was angry, and sent his armies, destroyed those murderers, and burned their city.
A mpalume bhala gubhatumbele, gubhatumile manjola kukwaabhulaganga bhaabhulegenje bhatumishi bhabho, na joka moto shilambo shabhonji.
8 “Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding is ready, but those who were invited weren’t worthy.
Kungai gubhaalugulilenje bhatumishi bhabho, ‘Kweli, kalamu ja ndowa pujili tayali, ikabheje bhashemilwenje bhala bhangapinjikwanga.
9 Go therefore to the intersections of the highways, and as many as you may find, invite to the wedding feast.’
Bhai, nnjendangane mmalekano na bhobhowe bhushimwaimananje mwaashemanje bhaikangane ku ndowa.’
10 Those servants went out into the highways and gathered together as many as they found, both bad and good. The wedding was filled with guests.
Bhatumishi bhala gubhashoshilenje, gubhapitengene mmipanda, gubhaishe nabhonji bhandu bhowe, bha mmbonenji na bhangalinginji bha mmbonenji. Nyumba jila gujigumbele bhajeninji.
11 “But when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man who didn’t have on wedding clothing,
“Ikabheje a mpalume bhakajinjileje kukwaalolanga bhajeninji, gubhammweni mundu jumo jwangawala nngubho ja ndowa.
12 and he said to him, ‘Friend, how did you come in here not wearing wedding clothing?’ He was speechless.
Bhakulungwa gubhammushiye, ‘Ambwiga, nnjinjile bhuli gwangali wala nngubho ja ndowa?’ Ikabheje jwangajangula, gwaitamile ilili.
13 Then the king said to the servants, ‘Bind him hand and foot, take him away, and throw him into the outer darkness. That is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.’
Penepo a mpalume bhala gubhaalugulilenje bhatumishi, ‘Muntabhanje makono na makongono nkanjaanje palanga ku lubhindu, kweneko shikubhe shililo na yaga meno.’”
14 For many are called, but few chosen.”
A Yeshu gubhamalishiye bhalinkuti, “Bhashemilwenje bhabhagwinji, ikabheje bhaagwilwenje bhashokope.”
15 Then the Pharisees went and took counsel how they might entrap him in his talk.
Kungai, Mapalishayo gubhajabhulengene, nigubhapengenenje shanabhuli pushibhaatanjiyanje a Yeshu kwa malobhe gabho.
16 They sent their disciples to him, along with the Herodians, saying, “Teacher, we know that you are honest, and teach the way of God in truth, no matter whom you teach; for you aren’t partial to anyone.
Bhai, gubhaatumilenje bhaajiganywa bhabhonji na bhandunji bha a Elode, gubhaabhushiyenje, “Mmaajiganya, tumumanyi kuti mmwe mmandu bha kulupalika, na nnaajiganya mpanda gwa a Nnungu kwa kulupalika na nkakunnjogopa mundu jojowe, pabha mmwe mwangali luagu.
17 Tell us therefore, what do you think? Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
Bhai, ntulugulile nkubhona bhuli? Alali eu nngabha alali kulipa koli kwa a Kaishali?”
18 But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, “Why do you test me, you hypocrites?
Ikabheje a Yeshu gubhaumanyi ungamanyika gwabhonji, gubhaalugulilenje, “Mmanganya mmagulumba, kwa nndi nnaninganga?
19 Show me the tax money.” They brought to him a denarius.
Nnanguyanje mmbiya ja lipila koli.” Gubhaalangwiyenje.
20 He asked them, “Whose is this image and inscription?”
Bhai, a Yeshu gubhaabhushiyenje, “Pishaji na majandikoga gakeni?”
21 They said to him, “Caesar’s.” Then he said to them, “Give therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”
Gubhaajangwilenje, “Ya a Kaishali.” Penepo a Yeshu gubhaalugulilenje, “Bhai, ya a Kaishali mwaapanganje a Kaishali, na ya a Nnungu mwaapanganje a Nnungu.”
22 When they heard it, they marveled, and left him and went away.
Bhakapilikananjeje nneyo gubhalapilenje, gubhajabhulengenenje nikwaaleka.
23 On that day Sadducees (those who say that there is no resurrection) came to him. They asked him,
Lyene lyubhalyo, Mashadukayo bhananji bhaabheleketanga kuti, bhawilenje bhakayukanga, gubhaajendelenje a Yeshu.
24 saying, “Teacher, Moses said, ‘If a man dies, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife and raise up offspring for his brother.’
Bhai, gubhaabhushiyenje bhalinkutinji, “Mmajiganya, a Musha bhalugwile, mundu alombile awaga gwangali leka bhana, inapinjikwa jwannung'una abhatole bhakongwebho, nkupinga abhakolele bhana akulugwe.
25 Now there were with us seven brothers. The first married and died, and having no offspring left his wife to his brother.
Bhai, panngwetu pano bhashinkupagwanga bhandu shabha. Jwankulu ashinkulomba gwawile gwangali kolela bhana, gwanneshele mpwakwe bhashitenga bhala.
26 In the same way, the second also, and the third, to the seventh.
Nibha nneyo peyo kuka mpwakwe jwa bhili, naka jwa tatu, mpaka bhowe shabha.
27 After them all, the woman died.
Bhakawanganjeje bhowebho, bhakongwe bhala nabhalabho gubhawile.
28 In the resurrection therefore, whose wife will she be of the seven? For they all had her.”
Bhuli, lyubha lishibhayukanje, shibhabhe bhakongwe bhakeni? Pabha bhashinkulombwa na bhowe shabha.”
29 But Jesus answered them, “You are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.
A Yeshu gubhaajangwilenje, “Mmanganya nnapuganikanga kwa ligongo lya nngagamanya Majandiko ga Ukonjelo wala mashili ga a Nnungu.
30 For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like God’s angels in heaven.
Pabha bhawilenje pushibhayukanje bhakalombanga wala lombwa, shibhabhanganje mbuti ashimalaika kunnungu.
31 But concerning the resurrection of the dead, haven’t you read that which was spoken to you by God, saying,
Ikabheje ga yuka bhawilenje, bhuli, nkanabhe shomanga gubhannugulilenje a Nnungu gala? Bhalinkuti,
32 ‘I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.”
‘Nne a Nnungu bha a Bhulaimu na bha a Ishaka na bha a Yakobho!’ Bhai, bhenebho nngabha a Nnungu bha bhandu bhawilenje, ikabheje bha bhandu bhakotonji.”
33 When the multitudes heard it, they were astonished at his teaching.
Bhandu bhagumbelenje bhala bhakapilikananjeje nneyo, gubhalapilenje kwa majiganyo gabho.
34 But the Pharisees, when they heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, gathered themselves together.
Mapalishayo bhakapilikananjeje kuti a Yeshu bhashikwaapeyanga Mashadukayo, gubhaimenenje pamo.
35 One of them, a lawyer, asked him a question, testing him.
Jumo munkumbi gwabhonji, akujimanya Shalia, akwaabhuyaga a Yeshu nkwaalinga,
36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law?”
“Mmaajiganya, amuli jashi jili jikulungwa Nshalia ja a Musha?”
37 Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’
A Yeshu gubhaajangwile, “‘Mwaapinje Bhakulungwa a Nnungu bhenu kwa ntima gwenu gowe na mbumu yenu yowe na kwa lunda lwenu lowe’.
38 This is the first and great commandment.
Jeneji ni amuli jikulungwa na ja ntai.
39 A second likewise is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’
Jabhili jilandana na jenejo, ‘Mwaapinje atami ajenu malinga shinkwipinga mmayene’.
40 The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments.”
Shalia yowe ya a Musha na majiganyo ga ashinkulondola bha a Nnungu inashimilika kwa yene amulii.”
41 Now while the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them a question,
Mapalishayo bhakaimananjeje pamo, a Yeshu gubhaabhushiyenje,
42 saying, “What do you think of the Christ? Whose son is he?” They said to him, “Of David.”
“Mmanganya nkubhonaga bhuli ga a Kilishitu? Bhuli, mwana juka gani?” Gubhaajangwilenje, “Bhaulongo gwa a Daudi.”
43 He said to them, “How then does David in the Spirit call him Lord, saying,
A Yeshu gubhaabhalanjilenje, “Bhai, ikomboleka bhuli kwa a Daudi kwa longoywa naka Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo bhanakwaashema a Kilishitu Bhakulungwa? Pabha bhashinkubheleketa,
44 ‘The Lord said to my Lord, sit on my right hand, until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet’?
‘Bhakulungwa bhashinkwaalugulila Bhakulungwa bhangu. “Ntame nkono nnilo gwangu, Mpaka pushinaabhikanje ashaamagongo ajenu pa makongono genu.”’
45 “If then David calls him Lord, how is he his son?”
Bhai, ibhaga a Daudi bhanakwaashema a Kilishitu ‘Bhakulungwa’ nibha bhuli bha ulongo bhabho?”
46 No one was able to answer him a word, neither did any man dare ask him any more questions from that day forward.
Wala jwakwa mundu abhajangwile. Tandubhila penepo jwakwa mundu alinjile kwaabhuya kabhili.
