Matthew 22
1 Jesus answered and spoke to them again in parables, saying,
U Yesu akavavuula kange avavaha va vatekesi na vagoyo va Vayahudi ifihwanikisio, ifingi akati,
2 “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king, who made a wedding feast for his son,
“Uvutwa vwa kukyanya vuhwaniine nu ntwa jumonga juno alyaling'hanisie uvutolani vwa mwanaake.
3 and sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding feast, but they would not come.
Untwa jula akavasung'ha avavombi vaake kukuvakemeela vano alyakutile kuuti viise kuvutolani, neke aveene vakakaana kuluta.
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!”’
Untwa juula pe akasung'ha kange avavombi avange akavavuula akati,”Lutagha ku vano nikakutile uvutolani muvavuule kuuti, Lolagha, Niling'hanisie ifiinu fyoni ifya vutolani. Nibudile ing'hambako ni ndama sango sino sineniipe fiijo. Mwise kuvutolani.”
5 But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his own farm, another to his merchandise;
Neke aveene navakavikila mwojo. vakaluta ku mbombo saave, jumonga akaluta kumughunga ghwake, ujunge akaluta kughusia ifiinu fyake.
6 and the rest grabbed his servants, treated them shamefully, and killed them.
Avange vano valyakemelilue vakavakola avavombi vala vakavatova kyongo na kukuvabuda.
7 When the king heard that, he was angry, and sent his armies, destroyed those murderers, and burned their city.
Untwa jula ye apulike sino sivombike ku vavombi vaake akakalala, Akasung'ha avasikali vaake kuluta kukuvabuda avabudi vala na kunyaanya lwoni ilikaaja lyave.
8 “Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding is ready, but those who were invited weren’t worthy.
Pe akavavuula avavombi vaake akati,”Uluo lwa vutolani luling'hanisivue, neke vano nikakutile uvutolani navanoghiile kange kukwisa ku vutolani.
9 Go therefore to the intersections of the highways, and as many as you may find, invite to the wedding feast.’
Lino lutagha mu mapuulo, muvavuule avaanhu vooni vano mutang'hana navo kuuti viise ku vutolani.”
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.
Avavombi vala vakaluta mu masevo na mu mapuulo vakavakemeela na kukuvaleeta avaanhu vooni vano vakava vitan'ghana, navo avanofu na vahosi, Avaanhu vinga vakiisa vakamema mu nyumba ija vutolani.
11 “But when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man who didn’t have on wedding clothing,
Neke untwa jula ye ikwingila mu nyumba jila kuuti, alole avahesia, vaake akamwagha umuunhu jumonga naafwalile umwenda ghuno ghunoghile mu vutolani!
12 and he said to him, ‘Friend, how did you come in here not wearing wedding clothing?’ He was speechless.
Akamposia akati,'Nyalukolo, lwandani ghwingile muno kisila kuuva nu mwenda ghuno ghunoghiile mu vutolani? Umuunhu jula akakunua ikya kujova.
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.’
Pepeno untwa jula akavavuula avavombi vaake akati,”Nkunge umuunhu uju amaghulu na mavoko muntaaghe kunji ku ng'hiisi, ukuo ililagha na kugwegwenula amiino vwimila uvuvafi uvukome vuno alinavwo.
14 For many are called, but few chosen.”
U Yesu pe akavuula akati, Vano vakemelilue, nu Nguluve kukwingila mu vutwa vwake vinga neke avasalulua vadebe.”
15 Then the Pharisees went and took counsel how they might entrap him in his talk.
Pambele a Vafalisayi vakavuuka pala vakaluta kupuling'hana vwimila ikiteghe ikya kunkola u Yesu mu masio ghaake.
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.
Pe akasung'ha kwa Yesu avavulanisivua vaave palikimobna vavingiliili va ntwa u Herode. Avavulanisivua vala vakamposia vakati,”Ghwe Mb'ulanisi, tukagwile kuuti uve ulimuunhu ghwa kyang'haani ghuvulanisia mu vwakyang'haani sino ilonda u Nguluve. Kange naghukwoghopa nambe muunhu vwimila uvuvaha vwaake.
17 Tell us therefore, what do you think? Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
Lino tuvuule, ghuvona ndaani indaghilo sa Moose sikwitikisia kusonga isongo kwa Kaisali?”
18 But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, “Why do you test me, you hypocrites?
Neke u Yesu akakagula amasaghe ghaave amaviivi akavamula akati,”Mwe vakedusi umue kiki mukungela?
19 Show me the tax money.” They brought to him a denarius.
Muhufie ihela jino mwa musonga isongo.”Vakamuletela idinali jimo.
20 He asked them, “Whose is this image and inscription?”
Akavaposia akati,”Ikihwani nu vulembe fino fili mu hela iji fyani?”
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.”
Vakamwamula vakati,”Fya Kaisali.”Pepano u Yesu akavavuula akati,”Ifya Kaisali mumpelaghe uKaisali ifya Nguluve mumpelaghe u Nguluve.”
22 When they heard it, they marveled, and left him and went away.
Ye vapulike ulwamulo lwa Yesu vakadegha kyongo. Vakamuleka pala vakavuuka viluta.
23 On that day Sadducees (those who say that there is no resurrection) came to him. They asked him,
Ikighono kilakila aVasadukayi vamonga vakaluta kwa Yesu, A Vasadukayi kye kipugha mu lwitiko lwa Kiyahudi vano viiti nakwelule ulusyukolwa vafue. Vakamposia vakati,
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.’
Ghwe M'bulanisi, u Moose alyalembile ululaghilo kuuti nave umuunhu afwile kisila mwana, unnine anoghile kuhaala umfwile jula kuuti ampapile avaana anyakusila.
25 Now there were with us seven brothers. The first married and died, and having no offspring left his wife to his brother.
Lino kwevalyale avanamuunhu lekelalubale. Ughwa kwanda akatoola un'dala akafua kisila kuleka mwana. Ughwa vuvili akamhaala umfwile jula.
26 In the same way, the second also, and the third, to the seventh.
Ghwope akafua kisila kuleka mwana Ghwoope ughwa vutatu lukavombeka vulevule kuhanga kufika ughwa lekela lubale.
27 After them all, the woman died.
Pambele, ghwoope un'dala umfwile jula akafua.
28 In the resurrection therefore, whose wife will she be of the seven? For they all had her.”
Lino ikighono ikya kusyuka avaanhu vooni umfwile jula iliiva n'dala ghwani mu vala lekelalubale? Ulwakuuva vooni valyantolile.”
29 But Jesus answered them, “You are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.
U Yesu akamula akati,”Musova, ulwakuva namukagwile aMalembe aMimike nambe ingufu sa Nguluve.
30 For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like God’s angels in heaven.
Ulwakuuva avafue valaava visyuka, nakwekulaava kutoola nambe kutolua. viliiva ndavule avanyamola ava kukyanya.
31 But concerning the resurrection of the dead, haven’t you read that which was spoken to you by God, saying,
Neke vwimila kusyuka avafue namwimbile mu Malembe aMimike sino u Nguluve alyavavulile avakuulu viinu kuuti,
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.”
Une neene Nguluve ghwa Abulahamu, Nguluve ghwa Isaka, Nguluve ghwa Yakovo? u Yesu akavavuula kange kuuti u Nguluve na Nguluve ghwa vafue looli Nguluve ghwa vuumi.”
33 When the multitudes heard it, they were astonished at his teaching.
Avaanhu mu mapugha ghala ye apulike imbulanisio saake vakadegha kyongo.
34 But the Pharisees, when they heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, gathered themselves together.
A Vafalisayi ye vapulike kuuti u Yesu avamwile a Vasadukayi, kuhanga vakunilue ikya kujova vakakong'haana palikimo vakaluta kwa Yesu.
35 One of them, a lawyer, asked him a question, testing him.
Um'bulanisi jumonga ughwa ndaghilo sa Moose mu Vafalisayi vala akamughela u Yesu akamposia akati.
36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law?”
“Ghwe M'bulanisi ululaghilo luliku luno luvaha kukila indaghilo sooni?”
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.’
U Yesu akamwamula akati,”Umughanaghe u Mutwa u Nguluve ghwako nu mwojo ghwako, ghwoni ni ngufu saako sooni nu luhala lwako lwoni.
38 This is the first and great commandment.
Ulu lwe lulaghilo uluvaha kange lwe lwa kwanda.
39 A second likewise is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’
Ululaghilo ulwa vuvili luno luling'hiine nu lwa kwanda lwe ulu, Umughanaghe unnino ndavule ghukughana juuve.
40 The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments.”
Indaghilo sooni isa Moose ni mbulanisio isa vavili sihuma mu ndaghilo isi ivili.”
41 Now while the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them a question,
A Vafalisayi ye vajiighe vakong'hanile palikimo u Yesu akavaposia akati.
42 saying, “What do you think of the Christ? Whose son is he?” They said to him, “Of David.”
Asi, mwiti kiki vwimila u Kilisite? Mwiti mwana ghwani? Vakamwamula vakati,”Mwana ghwa David.”
43 He said to them, “How then does David in the Spirit call him Lord, saying,
U Yesu akavaposia akati,”Nave fye lulivuo lwandani u Davidi ye alongosivue nu Mhepo ghwaNguluve ikuntambula u Kilisite Mutwa Pano iiti,
44 ‘The Lord said to my Lord, sit on my right hand, until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet’?
'U Mutwa u Nguluve alyam'bulile u Mutwa ghwango,”Uuve nubvutavulilua palikimo nune kuhanga nikutange avaleme avalugu vaako uvateme.”'?”
45 “If then David calls him Lord, how is he his son?”
Lino nave u Davidi ikuntambula u Kilisite iiti, “Mutwa,”lwandani uKilisite iiva mwanaake?”
46 No one was able to answer him a word, neither did any man dare ask him any more questions from that day forward.
Nakwealyale umuunhu juno akaghela kukwamula ilisio, kuhuma unsiki ughuo nalyangiile kukumposia kange.
