Matayo 21
1 Che Yesu pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaŵandichile ku Yelusalemu, ni paŵaiche ku Besefage pachikwesya cha Miseituni, ŵatumile ŵakulijiganya ŵaŵili.
And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and came unto Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,
2 Ŵaasalile, “Njaule kunsinda wauli mmbujo mwenu, ni kweleko chinkajisimane mbunda jajitaŵikwe ni mwanambunda pamo najo. Nkaagopole njise nawo kwangune.
saying unto them, Go into the village that is over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose [them], and bring [them] unto me.
3 Iŵaga chakammusye mundu ligongo lya kwagopola, nkajile, ‘Ambuje akusisaka,’ ni pangakaŵa chakannechele.”
And if any one say aught unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.
4 Ali lyatendekwe kuti gamalile gaŵaŵechete jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu.
Now this is come to pass, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,
5 “Mwasalile ŵandu ŵa musi wa Sayuni, Nnole, Mwenye jwenu akunnyichilila! Atulele, ni akwesile mbunda, ni mwanambunda, chinyama chachikujigala itutule.”
Tell ye the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, Meek, and riding upon an ass, And upon a colt the foal of an ass.
6 Ŵakulijiganya ŵala ŵajawile, ŵatesile mpela iŵatite pakusalilwa ni Che Yesu.
And the disciples went, and did even as Jesus appointed them,
7 Ŵajiichenawo mbunda ni mwanambunda, ŵatandiche nguo syao pachanya pawo ni Che Yesu ŵatemi pachanya pakwe.
and brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their garments; and he sat thereon.
8 Mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu watandiche nguo syao mwitala, ni ŵane ŵakatile nyambi sya mwana sya itela ni ŵatandiche mwitala.
And the most part of the multitude spread their garments in the way; and others cut branches from the trees, and spread them in the way.
9 Mipingo ja ŵandu ŵaŵalongolele ni ŵaŵakuiye ŵanyanyisye achitiji, “Ajinichilwe Mwana ju che Daudi, Akole upile jwele jwakwika mu liina lya Ambuje! Ajinichilwe Akunnungu ŵaali kwinani!”
And the multitudes that went before him, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed [is] he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.
10 Che Yesu paŵajinjilaga ku Yelusalemu, ŵandu ŵa musi wose ŵaliji jugulijuguli. Ŵandu ŵaliji nkuusyana, “Ana aju ali nduni?”
And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was stirred, saying, Who is this?
11 Ŵandu mu mpingo ula ŵatite, “Ŵeleŵa ni Che Yesu, jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu kutyochela ku Nasaleti musi wa ku Galilaya.”
And the multitudes said, This is the prophet, Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.
12 Nipele, Che Yesu ŵajinjile mu lutenje lwa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu, ŵaaŵinjile ŵanawose uŵasumisyaga ni kusuma malonda pepala, ŵapitikwisye mesa sya ŵaŵasumanyaga mbiya, ni itengu yao ŵaŵasumisyaga nguunda.
And Jesus entered into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money-changers, and the seats of them that sold the doves;
13 Ŵaasalile, “Ilembekwe Mmalembelo ga Akunnungu, ‘Nyuumba jangu chijiŵilanjikwe nyuumba ja kupopelela.’ Nambo ŵanyamwe njitesile peuto pakulisisila ŵa wiyi.”
and he saith unto them, It is written, My house shall be called a house of prayer: but ye make it a den of robbers.
14 Ŵangalola ni ŵakulemala ŵanjaulile pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu, nombe Che Yesu ŵalamisye.
And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple: and he healed them.
15 Achakulu ŵambopesi ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo paŵaiweni indu yambone nnope iŵaitesile Che Yesu ni ŵanache ali nkunyanyisya pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu achitiji, “Ajinichilwe Mwana ju che Daudi,” ŵanyawo ŵatumbile.
But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children that were crying in the temple and saying, Hosanna to the son of David; they were moved with indignation,
16 Ŵausisye, “Uli ngankupilikana yakuti ŵanache?” Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Elo, ngupikana! Ana nganinsyome Maloŵe ga? ‘Kutyochela nkang'wa sya ŵanache achanandi ni ŵakonga, nlipatile lumbili lwemalilwe.’”
and said unto him, Hearest thou what these are saying? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea: did ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?
17 Nipele, ŵalesile, ŵakopweche mmusi ni kwaula ku Besania ni kugona kweleko.
And he left them, and went forth out of the city to Bethany, and lodged there.
18 Kundaŵi, Che Yesu paŵaujaga kwaula ku Yelusalemu, jakwete sala.
Now in the morning as he returned to the city, he hungered.
19 Ŵauweni ntini mungulugulu litala, ŵaujaulile, nambo nganachisimana chindu mwelemo, ŵausimene uli masamba pe. Ŵausalile, “Nkasogola isogosi sooni moŵa gose pangali mbesi!” Papopo nkuju wo wanyasile. (aiōn g165)
And seeing a fig tree by the way side, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only; and he saith unto it, Let there be no fruit from thee henceforward for ever. And immediately the fig tree withered away. (aiōn g165)
20 Ŵakulijiganya paŵauweni, ŵasimosile, ŵaliusisye, “Ntini u ujumwile chinauli chitema kwantinyi?”
And when the disciples saw it, they marveled, saying, How did the fig tree immediately wither away?
21 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ngunsalila isyene, mwaŵaga ni chikulupi pangali lipamba lili lyose, chinkombole kupanganya ngaŵa yeleyo pe yaitendekwe mu chitela cha ntini, nambo atamuno mwachisalilaga achi chitumbi chi, ‘Ntupuche ni kuliponya mu bahali,’ chiitendekwe iyoyo.
And Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do what is done to the fig tree, but even if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou taken up and cast into the sea, it shall be done.
22 Mwakolaga chikulupi, chachilichose chachimmende nkupopela, chimpate.”
And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
23 Che Yesu ŵajinjile pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu, ni kwiganya. Paŵajiganyaga, achakulu ŵa mbopesi ni achakulu ŵane ŵa ŵandu ŵausisye kuti, “Ana kwa ukombole chi nkutenda yele indu yi? Ŵaani ŵampele wele ukombole u?”
And when he was come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came unto him as he was teaching, and said, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority?
24 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “None chinammusye liusyo limo pe, mwanyangaga, nipele, none chinansalile kwa ukombole chi nguitenda indu yi.
And Jesus answered and said unto them, I also will ask you one question, which if ye tell me, I likewise will tell you by what authority I do these things.
25 Uli ukombole u che Yohana wa kubatisya watyochele kwapi? Watyochele kwinani pane kwa ŵandu?” Nambo ŵaŵechetesyene achinsyene pe achitiji, “Twajilaga, ‘Watyosile kwinani,’ chatuusye, ‘Nambi kwachichi nganimunkulupilila?’
The baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven or from men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say unto us, Why then did ye not believe him?
26 Nambo twajilaga, ‘Watyochele kwa ŵandu,’ tukogopa mpingo wa ŵandu pakuŵa ŵanawose akwitichisya kuti che Yohana ali jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu.”
But if we shall say, From men; we fear the multitude; for all hold John as a prophet.
27 Nipele, ŵajanjile, “Ngatukumanyilila!” Nombe Che Yesu ŵatite, “Atamuno une ngangunsalila ŵanyamwe kwa ukombole chi nguitenda indu yi.
And they answered Jesus, and said, We know not. He also said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.
28 “Ŵanyamwe nkuganisya uli? Mundu jumo ŵakwete achachanda ŵaŵili. Ŵantendele jwaandanda jo kuti, ‘Mwanangu, lelo njaule nkapanganye masengo mungunda wa sabibu.’
But what think ye? A man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work today in the vineyard.
29 Nchanda jo ŵajanjile, ‘Ngangusaka!’ Nambo kanyuma kakwe ŵapitikwiche ntima, ŵajawile kupanganya masengo.
And he answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented himself, and went.
30 Atati ŵala ŵanjaulile mwanagwe jwaaŵili jo ni kunsalila ilaila, nombe ŵajanjile ŵatite, ‘Elo, atati!’ Nambo nganajaula kumasengo.
And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I [go], sir: and went not.
31 Ana jwapi jwa ŵele ŵaŵili wo jwatesile yakuisaka atatigwe?” Ŵajanjile, “Jwanchanda jwaandanda jo.” Che Yesu ŵatite, “Ngunsalila isyene, ŵakukumbikanya nsongo ni ŵakulaŵalaŵa chajinjile mu Umwenye wa Akunnungu nkanaŵe kwinjila.
Whether of the twain did the will of his father? They say, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, that the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.
32 Pakuŵa che Yohana ŵaiche kukwenu ni kunnanjila kutama yambone nti yakuti pakusaka Akunnungu, ni ŵanyamwe nganimunkulupilila, nambo ŵakukumbikanya nsongo ni ŵakulaŵalaŵa ŵankulupilile. Ni ŵanyamwe pammasile kugawona gele nganinleka sambi ni kunkulupilila.”
For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye saw it, did not even repent yourselves afterward, that ye might believe him.
33 Che Yesu ŵatite, “Mpilikanile chitagu chine. Jwapali mundu jumo nsyene nyuumba ŵalimile ngunda wa sabibu, ŵausyunguchisye lutenje ni ŵakolosisye pakuminyila sabibu, ŵataŵile chilindo mmomopemo. Nipele ŵaujasimisye kwa ŵakulima ni kwaula ku chilambo cha kutalika.
Hear another parable: There was a man that was a householder, which planted a vineyard, and set a hedge about it, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into another country.
34 Katema ka kugungula, ŵatumile achikapolo ŵao kwa ŵakulima ŵala, kuti akajigale liunjili lyakwe lya magungulo.
And when the season of the fruits drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, to receive his fruits.
35 Ŵakulima ŵala ŵakamwile achikapolo ŵao, jumo ŵamputile, ni jwine ŵammuleje, ni jwine ŵamponyile maganga.
And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.
36 Sooni ŵatumile achikapolo ŵane ŵajinji kupunda ŵa kundanda. Ŵakulima ŵala ŵajasime ngunda ŵatendele ilaila.
Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them in like manner.
37 Kumbesi kwakwe ŵantumile mwanagwe achiganisyaga mu ntima wakwe achitiji, ‘Chakanchimbichisye mwanangu.’
But afterward he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son.
38 Nambo ŵakulima ŵala paŵammweni mwanagwao ŵaŵechetesyene achinsyene pe, ‘Aju ni juchapochele iŵagosele, twende tummulaje kuti indu iŵagosele tujigale uwe!’
But the husbandmen, when they saw the son, said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and take his inheritance.
39 Nipele, ŵankamwile, ŵantyosisye paasa ngunda wa sabibu, ŵammuleje.
And they took him, and cast him forth out of the vineyard, and killed him.
40 “Sambano, nsyene ngunda wa sabibu jula pachachiika, chachatenda ichichi ŵakulima ŵala?”
When therefore the lord of the vineyard shall come, what will he do unto those husbandmen?
41 Ŵanyawo ŵajanjile, “Chachajonanga wamba ŵele ŵachigongomalo wo ni ngunda wa sabibu ula chachiujasimisya kwa ŵakulima ŵane uchachapa liunjili lyakwe lya magungulo kwa katema kakwe.”
They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those miserable men, and will let out the vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons.
42 Pelepo Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Uli ana nganinsyome lye liloŵe li Mmalembelo ga Akunnungu? ‘Liganga liŵalikanile ŵakutaŵa sambano lilyolyo lili lyetendekwe liganga lyalikusachilwa kwannope kugapunda maganga gose. Ambuje ni ŵatesile achi chindu chi, nombe chili chakusimonjeka nnope kwetuwe!’
Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, The same was made the head of the corner: This was from the Lord, And it is marvelous in our eyes?
43 “Kwayele ngunsalila, Umwenye wa Akunnungu chiutyosekwe kukwenu, ni kupegwa ŵandu ŵakupanganya yakuisaka Akunnungu.”
Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken away from you, and shall be given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
44 Jwalijose juchagwilile pa liganga lyo chakasiche ipande ipande, ni jwalijose juchilyagwilile, chilinkanyatekanyate.
And he that falleth on this stone shall be broken to pieces: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will scatter him as dust.
45 Achakulu ŵa mbopesi ni Mafalisayo paŵapilikene itagu yao, ŵamanyilile kuti ŵaliji nkwagamba ŵanyawo.
And when the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.
46 Nipele ŵasosaga litala lya kwakamula, nambo ŵajogwepe ŵandu pakuŵa ŵanyawo ŵanganisisye nti jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu.
And when they sought to lay hold on him, they feared the multitudes, because they took him for a prophet.
