Matayo 10
1 U Yesu akaitanga iamanyisigwa akwe ikumi na abili akaapa uhumi wa kuzunsa amintunga niabi, kuakenela nukuheja indwala yihi.
He called to himself his twelve disciples, and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every sickness.
2 Mina aitumi ikumi naabili sayala ng'wandyo, Simeoni (naiwitangwa Petro), nu Andrea muluna akwe, Yakobo ng'wa Zebedayo, nu Yohana muluna akwe.
Now the names of the twelve apostles are these. The first, Simon, who is called Peter; Andrew, his brother; James the son of Zebedee; John, his brother;
3 Filipo, nu Bartimayo, Thomaso nu Matayo muhoela mpia, Yakobo ng'wa Alfayo, nu Tadeo.
Philip; Bartholomew; Thomas; Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus; Lebbaeus, who was also called Thaddaeus;
4 Simeoni mkananayo, nu Yuda Iskariote, naumuhitile u Yesu.
Simon the Zealot; and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
5 Awa ikumi na abili u Yesu akaatuma, akaatuma akaalagiila akalunga “Muleke kulongola uko nikie ianyakilungu, hangi muleke kingila mu isali ya Samaria.
Jesus sent these twelve out and commanded them, saying, “Don’t go among the Gentiles, and don’t enter into any city of the Samaritans.
6 Ingi gwa mulongole munkolo nailimie mito lang'wa Israeli.
Rather, go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
7 Nuko nimulongoe, muzitanantya nukulunga, utemi akigulu wahugela.”
As you go, preach, saying, ‘The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!’
8 Aguni ialwoe, aushi uashi, anoni ianyambili azunsi iamintunga. Musingiyeu nunyenye pamiu.
Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, and cast out demons. Freely you received, so freely give.
9 Muleke kukenka isao, mumbugulu yanyu.
Don’t take any gold, silver, or brass in your money belts.
10 Leka kuhola imbugulu mumuhenzo anyu, ang'we wakukaila, ilatu ang'wi mulanga, kunsoko umitumi uloiwe ndya yakwe.
Take no bag for your journey, neither two coats, nor sandals, nor staff: for the laborer is worthy of his food.
11 Kisali kihi nimukingile, mdume umuntu nimuhumile kikie, sunga nimuzizahega.
Into whatever city or village you enter, find out who in it is worthy, and stay there until you go on.
12 Nimukingila pang'wanso lamushi, ang'we inonee pang'wanso, upolo wanyu usige hapo,
As you enter into the household, greet it.
13 ang'wi inyumba shinonee, muhege nuupolo wanyu.
If the household is worthy, let your peace come on it, but if it isn’t worthy, let your peace return to you.
14 Nao nishaakumusingilya mukulegeelya inkani yanyu, matungo nimukuhega munyumba ang'wi mukisali nikanso, kununti ulunkundi nula migula nyu kuko.
Whoever doesn’t receive you or hear your words, as you go out of that house or that city, shake the dust off your feet.
15 Tai numuie, izitula iza iisali ya sodoma ni Gomola imahiku naulamatwa kukila ikisali nikanso.
Most certainly I tell you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.
16 Tuli miho, kumutuma anga nkolo midale la mbugi, kululo mulule miahugu anga inzoka hangi miapolo anga inzia.
“Behold, I send you out as sheep among wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.
17 Mutule miho niantu, akumutwala mumaanza, hangi akumukua mumatekeelo.
But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils, and in their synagogues they will scourge you.
18 Hangi mukuletwa kuntongeela akulu nukuatemi kunsoko ane, anga wihenge wao nukuanya kilungu.
Yes, and you will be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the nations.
19 Anga makatungigwa, leki kutuli nuwoa kuuligitya ntuni, kunsoko iko nikakuligityakuupegwa imatungo yayo.
But when they deliver you up, don’t be anxious how or what you will say, for it will be given you in that hour what you will say.
20 Kululo singa nyenye mukuligitya, ng'waung'we wang'wa Tata anyu ukuligitya.
For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.
21 Uzimuluta umuluna akwe nukumubulaga, nu Tata kung'wa akwe. Ni ana kulemanya nia leli, mukuatwala munsha.
“Brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child. Children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.
22 Antu ihi akumuhukilwa kunsoko a lina lane, hangi wihi nukugimya sunga impelo ukugunika.
You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake, but he who endures to the end will be saved.
23 Matungo nimukagigwa mukisali iki, mankiili mukisali nikityatie, kutai kumuila, singa mukutula menda muisali yihi nia Israeli azizakili kusuka ung'wana wang'wa Adamu.
But when they persecute you in this city, flee into the next, for most certainly I tell you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel until the Son of Man has come.
24 Umumanyisigwa singa mukulu kukila umumanyisi wakwe, ang'we umutugwa azukoli migulya amukulu akwe.
“A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his lord.
25 Umumanyisigwa ukutule anga mumanyisi wake, numutugwa kutula anga mukulu wakwe. Ang'wi akumitanga umukola nyumba Beelzebuli, aigwa singa akilinkie ao niakoli munyumba akwe!
It is enough for the disciple that he be like his teacher, and the servant like his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more those of his household!
26 Kululo leki kuogopi, kunsoko kutile ulukani nishaliziza kunukulwa, hangi kutile nulipihile nishalumanyikile.
Therefore don’t be afraid of them, for there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known.
27 Iki nikumuila mukiti, mukiligitye muwelu, niki numukigulu kuauza muakutwe anyu, mukitanantye muzemkole migulya na nyumba.
What I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear whispered in the ear, proclaim on the housetops.
28 Leki kuogopi ao nibulaga umuili inkolo amileke mpanga, ingigwa ogopi uyu nukubulaga umuili ninkolo amutwale kuulungu. (Geenna g1067)
Don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. Rather, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
29 Ia kasuku abiili shaiguligwa nee na mpia ninino? Kululo gwa kutile nuhumile kugwa pihi utata wanyu ahite kulinga.
“Aren’t two sparrows sold for an assarion coin? Not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will.
30 Ingi gwa nimasingi a matwe anyu aaligwa.
But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
31 Leki kutuli nuwoa kunsoko musanigwe kukila iakasuku nidu.
Therefore don’t be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.
32 Kululo gwa uyu nukungomba ntongeele aantu nunene nzinzamugomba pantongeela ang'wa tata ane nukuli kuilunde.
Everyone therefore who confesses me before men, I will also confess him before my Father who is in heaven.
33 Uyu nukunihita paantu nunene nzemuhita pang'wa Tata witu nuakingulu.
But whoever denies me before men, I will also deny him before my Father who is in heaven.
34 Leki kulungi aindetile ulowa mihi, unene aindetile mbita.
“Don’t think that I came to send peace on the earth. I didn’t come to send peace, but a sword.
35 Ainzile kumuika muntu ikue nu Tata wakwe, umunanso nu nyinya, umukwinu nyinyi akwe.
For I came to set a man at odds against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
36 Ianyaulugu amuntu akutula wawania nia mitalakwe.
A man’s foes will be those of his own household.
37 Uyu numuloilwe utata ang'wi uia akwe kukila ne nuanso shutakiwe nuyu numuloilwe umuhumba ang'wi munanso kukila une nuanso shutakiwe.
He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me isn’t worthy of me.
38 Uyu nisinga ukukenka ikota la upanga nukuntyata shukuona utemi wa kigulu.
He who doesn’t take his cross and follow after me isn’t worthy of me.
39 Uyu nuiduma upanga wa mihi ukulimilye, kululo uyu nuilimilya uupanga kunsoko ane wipantika.
He who seeks his life will lose it; and he who loses his life for my sake will find it.
40 Uyu nukumusingilya wansingiilya nene, nuyu nukunsingiilya unene wamusingiilya uyu nauntumile unene.
“He who receives you receives me, and he who receives me receives him who sent me.
41 Nuyu nukumusingiilya uyu nua tai kunsoko muntu wa tai ukupegwa uuza wa muntu nua tai.
He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward. He who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man will receive a righteous man’s reward.
42 Wihi nukumupa ung'wi wa anino awa, ikikombe kakung'wela imazi nimaliuku, kunsoko nuanso mumanyisigwa, tai kumuila, nuanso shukuulya kunzila yihi uuza wakwe.”
Whoever gives one of these little ones just a cup of cold water to drink in the name of a disciple, most certainly I tell you, he will in no way lose his reward.”
