Luka 20
1 Tsiku lina pamene Iye ankaphunzitsa anthu mʼmabwalo a Nyumba ya Mulungu ndi kuphunzitsa Uthenga Wabwino, akulu a ansembe ndi aphunzitsi amalamulo, pamodzi ndi akuluakulu anabwera kwa Iye.
And it came to pass, that on one of those days, as he taught the people in the temple, and preached the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes came upon him with the elders,
2 Iwo anati, “Mutiwuze mukuchita izi ndi ulamuliro wayani? Ndani anakupatsani ulamuliro uwu?”
And spake unto him, saying, Tell us, by what authority doest thou these things? or who is he that gave thee this authority?
3 Iye anayankha kuti, “Inenso ndikufunsani, mundiyankhe,
And he answered and said unto them, I will also ask you one thing; and answer me:
4 ‘Kodi ubatizo wa Yohane, unali wochokera kumwamba, kapena wochokera kwa anthu?’”
The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men?
5 Iwo anakambirana pakati pawo ndikuti, “Ngati ife tinena kuti, ‘Kuchokera kumwamba’ Iye akatifunsa kuti, ‘chifukwa chiyani simunamukhulupirire iye?’
And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why then believed ye him not?
6 Koma ngati ife tinena kuti, ‘kuchokera kwa anthu,’ anthu onse atigenda miyala, chifukwa amatsimikiza kuti Yohane anali mneneri.”
But and if we say, Of men; all the people will stone us: for they be persuaded that John was a prophet.
7 Pamenepo iwo anayankha kuti, “Ife sitidziwa kumene unachokera.”
And they answered, that they could not tell whence it was.
8 Yesu anati, “Ngakhale Inenso sindikuwuzani kuti ndi ulamuliro wanji umene ndikuchitira zimenezi.”
And Yahushua said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.
9 Iye anapitirira kuwawuza anthu fanizo ili: “Munthu wina analima munda wamphesa, nabwereketsa kwa alimi ena ndipo anachoka kwa nthawi yayitali.
Then began he to speak to the people this parable; A certain man planted a vineyard, and let it forth to husbandmen, and went into a far country for a long time.
10 Pa nthawi yokolola, iye anatumiza wantchito wake kwa alimi aja kuti amupatseko zina mwa zipatso za munda wamphesawo. Koma alimi aja anamumenya namubweza wopanda kanthu.
And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat him, and sent him away empty.
11 Iye anatumiza wantchito wina, koma uyunso anamumenya namuchita zachipongwe ndi kumubweza wopanda kanthu.
And again he sent another servant: and they beat him also, and entreated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
12 Iye anatumizanso wina wachitatu ndipo iwo anamuvulaza namuponya kunja.
And again he sent a third: and they wounded him also, and cast him out.
13 “Kenaka mwini mundawo anati, ‘Kodi ndichite chiyani? Ndidzatumiza mwana wanga wamwamuna, amene ndimukonda; mwina iwo adzamuchitira ulemu.’
Then said the master of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be they will reverence him when they see him.
14 “Koma alimiwo ataona mwanayo, anakambirananso. Iwo anati, ‘Uyu ndiye wodzamusiyira chumachi. Tiyeni timuphe ndipo chumachi chikhala chathu.’
But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.
15 Ndipo anamuponya kunja kwa mundawo ndi kumupha. “Nanga tsono mwini munda wamphesayo adzawatani anthuwa?
So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore shall the master of the vineyard do unto them?
16 Iye adzabwera ndi kupha alimi aja ndi kupereka mundawo kwa ena.” Pamene anthu anamva izi, anati, “Musatero ayi.”
He shall come and destroy these husbandmen, and shall give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said, Let it not be.
17 Yesu anawayangʼanitsitsa ndipo anafunsa kuti, “Kodi tanthauzo lake ndi chiyani la zimene zinalembedwa kuti, “‘Mwala umene omanga nyumba anawukana wasanduka mwala wa pa ngodya.
And he beheld them, and said, What is this then that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?
18 Aliyense amene agwa pa mwalawu adzapweteka, koma iye amene udzamugwera udzamuphwanya.’”
Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
19 Aphunzitsi amalamulo ndi akulu a ansembe amafuna njira yoti amuphe nthawi yomweyo, chifukwa anadziwa kuti ananena fanizo ili powatsutsa iwo. Koma iwo anali ndi mantha chifukwa cha anthu.
And the chief priests and the scribes the same hour sought to lay hands on him; and they feared the people: for they perceived that he had spoken this parable against them.
20 Pamene ankamulondalonda Iye, iwo anatumiza akazitape amene amaoneka ngati achilungamo. Iwo ankafuna kumutapa mʼkamwa Yesu mu china chilichonse chimene Iye ananena kuti amupereke Iye kwa amene anali ndi mphamvu ndi ulamuliro oweruza.
And they watched him, and sent forth spies, which should feign themselves just men, that they might take hold of his words, that so they might deliver him unto the power and authority of the governor.
21 Potero akazitapewo anamufunsa Iye kuti, “Aphunzitsi, tidziwa kuti mumayankhula ndi kuphunzitsa zimene zili zoonadi, ndi kuti simuonetsa tsankho koma mumaphunzitsa njira ya Mulungu mwachoonadi.
And they asked him, saying, Master, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly, neither acceptest thou the person of any, but teachest the way of Elohim truly:
22 Kodi ndi bwino kwa ife kumapereka msonkho kwa Kaisara kapena kusapereka?”
Is it lawful for us to give tribute unto Caesar, or no?
23 Iye anaona chinyengo chawo ndipo anawawuza kuti,
But he perceived their craftiness, and said unto them, Why tempt ye me?
24 “Onetseni ndalama. Chithunzi ndi malembawa ndi zayani?”
Shew me a penny. Whose image and superscription hath it? They answered and said, Caesar's.
25 Iwo anayankha kuti, “Za Kaisara.” Iye anawawuza kuti, “Ndiye perekani kwa Kaisara zake za Kaisara ndi kwa Mulungu zimene ndi za Mulungu.”
And he said unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which be Caesar's, and unto YHWH the things which be YHWH 's.
26 Iwo analephera kumupeza cholakwa pa zimene ankayankhula pamaso pa anthu. Ndipo pothedwa nzeru ndi yankho lake, iwo anakhala chete.
And they could not take hold of his words before the people: and they marvelled at his answer, and held their peace.
27 Ena mwa Asaduki, amene ankanena kuti kulibe kuuka kwa akufa, anabwera kwa Yesu ndi funso.
Then came to him certain of the Sadducees, which deny that there is any resurrection; and they asked him,
28 Iwo anati, “Aphunzitsi, Mose anatilembera kuti munthu akamwalira ndi kusiya mkazi wopanda ana, mʼbale wa munthu womwalirayo akuyenera kukwatira mkaziyo kuti amuberekere ana mʼbale wakeyo.
Saying, Master, Moses wrote unto us, If any man's brother die, having a wife, and he die without children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
29 Tsopano panali abale asanu ndi awiri. Woyambayo anakwatira mkazi ndipo anafa wopanda mwana.
There were therefore seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and died without children.
30 Wachiwiri
And the second took her to wife, and he died childless.
31 ndipo kenaka wachitatuyo anamukwatira iye, ndipo chimodzimodzi asanu ndi awiri aja anafa osasiya ana.
And the third took her; and in like manner the seven also: and they left no children, and died.
32 Pa mapeto pake mkaziyo anafanso.
Last of all the woman died also.
33 Tsopano, pa nthawi ya kuukanso, kodi mkaziyu adzakhala wayani popeza onse asanu ndi awiri anamukwatirapo?”
Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them is she? for seven had her to wife.
And Yahushua answering said unto them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage: (aiōn g165)
35 Koma mʼmoyo umene ukubwerawo, anthu amene adzaukitsidwe kwa akufa sadzakwatira kapena kukwatiwa. (aiōn g165)
But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage: (aiōn g165)
36 Ndipo sadzafanso, pakuti adzakhala ngati angelo. Iwo ndi ana a Mulungu, chifukwa adzakhala ataukitsidwa kwa akufa.
Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of Elohim, being the children of the resurrection.
37 Ngakhale pa nkhani yachitsamba choyaka moto, Mose anaonetsa kuti akufa amauka, pakuti anatcha Ambuye ‘Mulungu wa Abrahamu, Mulungu wa Isake ndi Mulungu wa Yakobo.’
Now that the dead are raised, even Moses shewed at the bush, when he calleth YHWH the Elohim of Abraham, and the Elohim of Isaac, and the Elohim of Jacob.
38 Mulungu si Mulungu wa akufa, koma wa amoyo, pakuti kwa Iye onse ali ndi moyo.”
For he is not an Elohim of the dead, but of the living: for all live unto him.
39 Ena mwa aphunzitsi amalamulo anayankha kuti, “Mwanena bwino mphunzitsi!”
Then certain of the scribes answering said, Master, thou hast well said.
40 Ndipo panalibe wina amene akanalimba mtima kumufunsa Iye mafunso ena.
And after that they durst not ask him any question at all.
41 Kenaka Yesu anawawuza kuti, “Zikutheka bwanji kuti aziti Khristu ndi mwana wa Davide?
And he said unto them, How say they that the Messiah is David's son?
42 Davide mwini wake akunenetsa mʼbuku la Masalimo kuti, “Ambuye anati kwa Ambuye anga: ‘Khalani ku dzanja langa lamanja,
And David himself saith in the book of Psalms, YHWH said unto my master, Sit thou on my right hand,
43 mpaka Ine nditasandutsa adani anu chopondapo mapazi anu?’
Till I make thine enemies thy footstool.
44 Davide akumutcha Iye ‘Ambuye.’ Nanga zingatheke bwanji kuti Iye akhale mwana wake?”
David therefore calleth him master, how is he then his son?
45 Pamene anthu onse ankamvetsera, Yesu anati kwa ophunzira ake,
Then in the audience of all the people he said unto his disciples,
46 “Chenjerani ndi aphunzitsi amalamulo. Iwo amakonda kuyenda atavala mikanjo ndipo amakonda kulonjeredwa mʼmisika ndipo amakhala mʼmipando yofunika mʼmasunagoge ndi mʼmalo aulemu mʼmaphwando.
Beware of the scribes, which desire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts;
47 Amawadyera akazi amasiye chuma chawo ndi kuchita mapemphero aatali kuti awaone. Anthu oterewa adzalangidwa kwambiri.”
Which devour widows' houses, and for a shew make long prayers: the same shall receive greater damnation.
