Matthew 9
1 He entered into a boat and crossed over, and came into his own city.
Che Yesu ŵajinjile mu ngalaŵa, ŵajombweche litanda ni kwika mmusi wao.
2 Behold, they brought to him a man who was paralyzed, lying on a bed. Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the paralytic, “Son, cheer up! Your sins are forgiven you.”
Pelepo ŵandu ŵampeleche mundu jumo jwatatele chiilu, ali agonile mu chitagala. Nipele Che Yesu paŵachiweni chikulupi chao, ŵansalile mundu jwakutatala jula, “Muusimane mtima, ambusanga! Nlecheleswe sambi syenu.”
3 Behold, some of the scribes said to themselves, “This man blasphemes.”
Nipele, ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ŵane ŵatandite ganisya mmitima jao aninkuti, “Mundu ju akwatukana Akunnungu!”
4 Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts?
Che Yesu ŵasimanyi ng'anisyo syao ni ŵausisye, “Kwachichi nkuganisya yangalumbana mmitima jenu?
5 For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven;’ or to say, ‘Get up, and walk’?
Chichi chili chakwepepala nnope, kusala, ‘Sambi syenu silecheleswe,’ pane kusala, ‘Njimuche, Njaule?’
6 But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins—” (then he said to the paralytic), “Get up, and take up your mat, and go to your house.”
Nambo, ngusaka mmanyilile kuti Mwana jwa Mundu akwete ukombole pa chilambo pano wa kwalechelesya ŵandu sambi syao.” Pelepo ŵansalile jwakutatala jo, “Njimuche, njigale chitagala chenu njaule kumangwenu.”
7 He arose and departed to his house.
Nipele, mundu jo ŵajimwiche ni kwaula kumangwao.
8 But when the multitudes saw it, they marveled and glorified God, who had given such authority to men.
Ŵandu wose mu mpingo wo paŵaiweni yeleyo, ŵasimosile ni kukamulwa ni lipamba, ŵaakusisye Akunnungu uŵapele ŵandu ukombole wanti yele.
9 As Jesus passed by from there, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax collection office. He said to him, “Follow me.” He got up and followed him.
Che Yesu ŵatyosile pelepo, ni paŵajaulaga, ŵambweni mundu jumo ali atemi mu nyuumba ja kulipila nsongo liina lyakwe che Matayo. Nipele Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Munguye.” Nombe che Matayo, ŵajimwiche ni kwakuya.
10 As he sat in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with Jesus and his disciples.
Che Yesu paŵaliji mu nyuumba ji che Matayo kulya chakulya, ŵakukumbikanya nsongo ŵajinji ni ŵaali ni sambi ŵaiche ni kutama pamo nawo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao.
11 When the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”
Mafalisayo paŵaiweni yeleyo, ŵausisye ŵakulijiganya ŵa Che Yesu, “Kwachichi jwakunjiganya akulya pamo ni ŵakukumbikanya nsongo ni ŵaali ni sambi?”
12 When Jesus heard it, he said to them, “Those who are healthy have no need for a physician, but those who are sick do.
Che Yesu ŵagapilikene gelego ni ŵajanjile, “Ŵangakulwala ngakwalajila ŵantela, ikaŵe ŵakulwala ni ŵakwalajila ŵantela.
13 But you go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’ for I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”
Nipele, njaule nkalijiganye malumbo ga maloŵe ga, ‘Ngusaka chanasa, ngaŵa mbopesi.’ Nganiika kukwaŵilanga ŵandu ŵakupanganya yambone paujo pa Akunnungu nambo ŵaali ni sambi.”
14 Then John’s disciples came to him, saying, “Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but your disciples don’t fast?”
Nipele, ŵakulijiganya ŵa che Yohana Ŵakubatisya ŵajaulile Che Yesu ni kwausya, “Uweji ni Mafalisayo tukutaŵa kaŵilikaŵili, kwachichi ŵakulijiganya ŵenu ngakutaŵa?”
15 Jesus said to them, “Can the friends of the bridegroom mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast.
Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Uli, nkuganisya kuti nkukombola kwatendekasya achambusanga ŵa mlombela asupuche akuno ali pamo nawo? Ngwamba! Nambo chikaiche katema pachajigalikwe mlombela jo pasikati jao, gele moŵa go chachitaŵa.
16 No one puts a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; for the patch would tear away from the garment, and a worse hole is made.
“Ngapagwa mundu jwakutotela chigamba cha nguo jasambano mu nguo jewisale. Atamuno atendaga yeleyo chigamba chasambano cho chichipapule nguo jo, ni upapuche wakwe chiupundanganye.
17 Neither do people put new wine into old wine skins, or else the skins would burst, and the wine be spilled, and the skins ruined. No, they put new wine into fresh wine skins, and both are preserved.”
Sooni ngapagwa ŵandu ŵakutaga divai jasambano mu misaku jewisale jekolochekwe ni mapende. Pakuŵa jele divai jasambano jo chijipapule misaku ni divai chijimwasiche ni misaku jo chijijonasiche. Nambo ŵandu akutaga divai jasambano mu misaku jasambano ni yose yana iŵili ikugosekwa.”
18 While he told these things to them, behold, a ruler came and worshiped him, saying, “My daughter has just died, but come and lay your hand on her, and she will live.”
Nipele, Che Yesu paŵaliji nkuŵecheta gelego, ŵaiche chilongola jumo jwa Chiyahudi, ŵatindiŵalile ni kuti, “Mwali jwangu akuwa sampano. Nambo, choonde twende nkaasajichile nkono wenu kuti akole umi.”
19 Jesus got up and followed him, as did his disciples.
Che Yesu ŵajimi ni kunkuya, ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵajawile pamo nawo.
20 Behold, a woman who had a discharge of blood for twelve years came behind him, and touched the fringe of his garment;
Jwakopochele jwankongwe jumo juŵalwalaga magono kwa yaka likumi ni iŵili, ŵannyichilile Che Yesu panyuma, ŵakwaiye lujenje lwa mwinjilo wao.
21 for she said within herself, “If I just touch his garment, I will be made well.”
Ŵatesile yeleyo pakuŵa ŵaganisisye muntima mwao kuti, “Nakwayaga pe mwinjilo wakwe, chilame.”
22 But Jesus, turning around and seeing her, said, “Daughter, cheer up! Your faith has made you well.” And the woman was made well from that hour.
Nombe Che Yesu ŵagalawiche, ŵamweni ni ŵansalile, “Muusimane ntima, mwanangu, chikulupi chenu chinnamisye.” Jwankongwe jo ŵalamile katema kakoko.
23 When Jesus came into the ruler’s house and saw the flute players and the crowd in noisy disorder,
Nipele Che Yesu ŵaiche mu nyuumba ja chilongola jula. Ni ŵaweni ŵakugomba ipeta ni mpingo wa ŵandu aninkulila kwa malumbo,
24 he said to them, “Make room, because the girl isn’t dead, but sleeping.” They were ridiculing him.
ni ŵatite, “Ntyochanje pelepa, pakuŵa mwali ju nganajasika, agambile gona pe.” Ni ŵanyawo ŵaasechile.
25 But when the crowd was sent out, he entered in, took her by the hand, and the girl arose.
Ŵandu ŵala paŵaŵinjikwe, Che Yesu ŵajinjile nkati, ŵankamwile nkono mwali jula, nombejo ŵajimwiche.
26 The report of this went out into all that land.
Ngani jila jajenele pa chilambo pala pose.
27 As Jesus passed by from there, two blind men followed him, calling out and saying, “Have mercy on us, son of David!”
Che Yesu ŵatyosile pelepo, ni paŵaliji nkwaula, ŵandu ŵaŵili ŵangakulola ŵankuiye achinyanyisyaga, “Choonde Mwana ju che Daudi ntukolele chanasa!”
28 When he had come into the house, the blind men came to him. Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” They told him, “Yes, Lord.”
Che Yesu paŵajinjile mu nyuumba, ŵangakulola wala ŵajaulile, nombejo ŵausisye, “Ana nkukulupilila kuti ngukombola kunlamya?” Nombewo ŵajanjile, “Elo, Ambuje.”
29 Then he touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith be it done to you.”
Pelepo Che Yesu ŵagakwaiye meeso gao, ŵatite, “Iŵeje kukwenu mpela inkuti pakukulupilila.”
30 Then their eyes were opened. Jesus strictly commanded them, saying, “See that no one knows about this.”
Meeso gao gaugwiche. Nombe Che Yesu ŵakanyisye kwa nnope kuti, “Ngasimunsalila mundu jwalijose ngani ji.”
31 But they went out and spread abroad his fame in all that land.
Nambo ŵanyawo ŵatyosile ni kutanda kwenesya ngani si Che Yesu mchilambo chila chose.
32 As they went out, behold, a mute man who was demon possessed was brought to him.
Ŵandu ŵaŵili ŵala paŵaliji nkutyoka, ŵandu ŵane ŵannyichisye Che Yesu mundu jumo jwangakuŵecheta kwa ligongo lya kukamulwa ni masoka.
33 When the demon was cast out, the mute man spoke. The multitudes marveled, saying, “Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel!”
Paŵankopwesye masoka papopo mundu jwangakuŵecheta jula, ŵatandite kuŵecheta. Ŵandu ŵasimosile nikuti, “Nganigawoneche kose gelega mu chilambo cha ku Isilaeli!”
34 But the Pharisees said, “By the prince of the demons, he casts out demons.”
Nambo Mafalisayo ŵatite, “Akugakoposya masoka kwa machili ga jwankulu jwa masoka.”
35 Jesus went about all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people.
Che Yesu ŵasyungwile mose mmisi ni mmisinda jose, achijiganyaga mmajumba gao ga kupopelela, ni kulalichila Ngani Jambone ja Umwenye wa Akunnungu ni kwalamisya ŵandu ilwele yose ni kulaga kwakulikose.
36 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion for them because they were harassed and scattered, like sheep without a shepherd.
Nipele, paŵaweni ŵandu, mipingo kwa mipingo, ŵakolele chanasa pakuŵa ŵapesile ni kukola lipamba chisau ngondolo syangali ni jwakuchinga.
37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest indeed is plentiful, but the laborers are few.
Pelepo ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao, “Magungulo gali gamajinji, nambo ŵakugungula nganatupa.
38 Pray therefore that the Lord of the harvest will send out laborers into his harvest.”
Nipele mwapopele Ambuje ŵa magungulo, apeleche ŵakupanganya masengo mmagungulo gao.”
