Mateyo 13
1 Mubuzuba obo Jesu wakazwa aanze ang'anda akukkala ambali alwizi.
On that day Jesus went out of the house and sat beside the sea.
2 Inkamu mpati yakamubunganina achakumuzyunguluka, lino wakanjila mubwato akukkala mukati, inkamu yoonse niyakachimvwi kunkomwe.
A very large crowd gathered around him, so he got into a boat and sat in it, while the whole crowd stood on the beach.
3 Elyo wakamba zintu zyiingi kulimbabo muzikozyanio. Wakati, “Amubone, mulimi wakaya kunze kukuyobyala imbuto.
Then Jesus said many things to them in parables. He said, “Behold, a farmer went out to sow seed.
4 Nakayobubyala, Imwi imbuto zyakawida ambali lyamugwagwa, mpawo bayuni bakasika akuzilya.
As he sowed, some seeds fell beside the road, and the birds came and devoured them.
5 Imwi imbuto yakawida anyika ilamabwe, kwakati kwakatali muse mwingi. Mpawo mpawo zyakamena nkambo imuse tewakali abulamfu kukuyaansi.
Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil. Immediately they sprang up, because the soil had no depth.
6 Pesi izuba nilyakatenta, zyakawuumpwa, nkambo tezyakali amiyanda, aboobo zyakayuma.
But when the sun had risen, they were scorched because they had no root, and they withered away.
7 Imbuto zimwi zyakawida mumaamvwa. Maamvwa akakomena mpawo akazisyanikizya.
Other seeds fell among the thorn plants. The thorn plants grew up and choked them.
8 Zimwi imbuto zyakawida mumuse mubotu mpawo zyakazyala zilyo, zimwi mwanda umwi windulwidwe chakuvula, zimwi makumi musanu alimwi, mpawo zimwi makumi aatatu.
Other seeds fell on good soil and produced a crop, some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.
9 Ooyo ulamatwi muleke amvwe.”
He who has ears, let him listen.”
10 Basikwiya bakasika mpawo bakati kuli Jesu, “Nkambonzi nowambula makani aya muzikozyanio?”
The disciples came and said to Jesus, “Why do you talk to the crowd in parables?”
11 Jesu wakasandula akwamba kuti kuli mbabo, “mulipedwe mwenya wakumvwisisya zisisidwe zyabwami bwakujulu, pesi kulimbabo tabapedwe pe.
Jesus answered and said to them, “You have been given the privilege of understanding mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.
12 Nkambo kufumbwa ujisi uyopegwa zyingi, alimwi uyoba azyindilide zyingi. Pesi utakwe, nekuba anchalacho chiyobwezegwa kuzwa kulinguwe.
For whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. But whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.
13 Nchenchicho nchingambulaabo muzikozyanio: nekuba banokubona, pesi tababonesesyi pe; alubo nekuba balamvwa, pesi tabamvwisisisyi, nekuba kumvwisisisya.
This is why I talk to them in parables: Though they are seeing, they do not see; and though they are hearing, they do not hear, or understand.
14 Kulimbabo chisinsimicha Isaya chili zuzikizizigwe, echo chamba kuti, “Nekuba kumvwa mulamvwa, pesi takwe abunini nimuyomvwisisya; nekuba kubona muyobona, pesi takwepe nimuyobonesesya.
To them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, that which says, 'While hearing you will hear, but you will in no way understand; while seeing you will see, but you will in no way perceive.
15 Nkambo myoyo yabantu aaba yaba mifubafuba mpawo miyumu kukumvwa, alubo bakajala meso aabo, kuti bataboni ameso aabo, nekuba kumvwa amatwi aabo, nikuba kumvwisisisya amyoyo yabo, kuti basanduke lubo, alubo ndikabaponesye.'
For this people's heart has become dull, and they are hard of hearing, and they have closed their eyes, so they should not see with their eyes, or hear with their ears, or understand with their hearts, so they would turn again, and I would heal them.'
16 Pesi alongezegwe meso anu, nkambo alabona.
But blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear.
17 Nkasimpe ndati kulindinywe kuti basinsimi bayingi abantu baluleme bakayandisya kubona zintu ezyo nzimubona pesi tebakazibona. Bakayandisya kuzimvwa zintu nzimumvwa alimwi tebakazimvwa.
Truly I say to you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see the things that you see, and did not see them. They desired to hear the things that you hear, and did not hear them.
18 Lino ngamuswilile kuchikozyanyo chamulimi wakabyala imbutozyakwe.
Listen then to the parable of the farmer who sowed his seed.
19 Na umwi wamvwa ijwi lyabwami bwakujulu pesi talimvwisisisya, mubi umwi wasika akubweza chakabyalwa mumoyo wakwe. Eyi nimbuto yakabyalilwa ambali lyamugwagwa.
When anyone hears the word of the kingdom but does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what has been sown in his heart. This is the seed that was sown beside the road.
20 Chakabyalwa anyika ilamabwe muntu umvwa ijwi elyo mpawo mpawo wakalitambula akukondwa,
What was sown on rocky ground is the person who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy,
21 nekubabobo takwe miyanda mulinguwe nkambo mpawo ulakakatila chabunini. Nikuba makatazyo akupenzegwa kaabuka ankambo kajwi, ulafwambana kuwa.
yet he has no root in himself and he endures for a while. When tribulation or persecution arises because of the word, he quickly falls away.
22 Chakabyalwa mumuse ulamamvwa, oyu muntu umvwa ijwi, pesi misaalo yenyika abongelezyi bwabuvubi bwasyanikizya ijwi, elyo ulaba utachizyali michelo. (aiōn g165)
What was sown among the thorn plants, this is the person who hears the word, but the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
23 Imbuto yakaminzwa mumuse mubotu, ooyu muntu uumvwa ijwi akulimvwisisisya. Ulazyala michelo akuleta zilyo, kakutebulwa uumwi myanda, amuli umwi makumi musanu alimwi, amuli umwi makumi aatatu akayindululwa mbubonya mbozyakabyalwa.
What was sown on the good soil, this is the person who hears the word and understands it. He bears fruit and makes a crop, some yielding one hundred times as much as was planted, some sixty, and some thirty times as much.”
24 Jesu wakababikila chimbi chikozyanyo kuli mbabo. Wakati, “Bwami bwakujulu bulimbuli mwalumi wakabyala imbuto imbotu mumuunda wakwe.
Jesus presented another parable to them. He said, “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field.
25 Pesi ibantu nibakachili koona, sinkondonyina wakasika elyo mpawo wakabyala masokwe akati ka wiiti mpawo wakiinka.
But while people slept, his enemy came and also sowed weeds among the wheat and then went away.
26 Mpawo masoonso nakazwa akuzyala bana balamuseke, aboobo isokwe lyakaboneka alyalo.
When the blades sprouted and then produced their crop, then the weeds appeared also.
27 Babelesi bamukamuunda nibakasika mpawo bakati kulinguwe, 'Taa,' temwakabyala imbuto mbotu na mumuunda wenu? Nkambonzi nikwaba masokwe?'
The servants of the landowner came and said to him, 'Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How does it now have weeds?'
28 Wakati kulimbabo, 'Sinkondoma nguwakachita echi.' Babelesi bakati kulinguwe, 'Mpo mulayanda na kuti twinke tukazinonkole?'
He said to them, 'An enemy has done this.' The servants said to him, 'So do you want us to go and pull them out?'
29 Mwini muunda wakati, 'Pee. Nkambo mwanoli kamunonkola masokwe, ngamuyononkokezya a wiiti.
The landowner said, 'No. Because while you are pulling out the weeds, you might uproot the wheat with them.
30 Muleke zikule antomwe kusikila kukutebula. Elyo kuchiindi chakutebula ndizoti kubatebuzi, “Chakusanguna amunonkoole masokwe akwawanga misunta kuti akawumpwe, pesi mubunganisye wiiti mubutala bwangu.”
Let both grow together until the harvest. At the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, “First pull out the weeds and tie them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn.”'”
31 Elyo Jesu wakabika chikozyanisyo chiimbi kulimbaabo. Wakati, “Bwami bwakujulu buli mbuli inseeke yalubangulamuntu njakabweza akwiibyala mumuunda wakwe.
Then Jesus presented another parable to them. He said, “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed which a man took and sowed in his field.
32 Inseke eyi nindini loko kunseke zyoonse. Pesi na yakomena, inga yabampati kwinda misamu yamuchilili. Ngayakomena kwinda ziziki zyamuchilili, ngayaba musamu wakuti bayuni bawuluka basike akuyaka zizumbo mumitabi yayo?”
This seed is indeed the smallest of all seeds. But when it has grown, it is greater than the garden plants. It becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and nest in its branches.”
33 Alimwi Jesu wakabambila chimbi chikozyanyo. “Bwami bwakujulu buli mbuli bumena bwamwanakazi bwakabweza akuswanizya zimpanzi zitaatu zyabusu bwa wiiti kusikila zyafufumuka.”
Jesus then told them another parable. “The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed with three measures of flour until all the dough had risen.”
34 Zyoonse ezi zintu Jesu wakazyaamba muzikozyanio kumakamu; aboobo takwe nchakamba katambide muchikozyanio.
All these things Jesus said to the crowds in parables; and he said nothing to them without a parable.
35 Echi chakalibobo kuchitila kuti chakambwa kwinda mumusinsimi chizuzikizigwe, Awo mpakamba kuti, “Ndiyojula mulomo muzikozyanisyo. Ndiyowamba zintu zyakasisikene kuzwa kumatangunino anyika.”
This was in order that what had been said through the prophet might come true, when he said, “I will open my mouth in parables. I will say things that were hidden from the foundation of the world.”
36 Jesu wakasiya makamu makamu akuya mungánda. Basikwiya bakwe bakeza kulinguwe akwamba kuti, “Tupandulwide chikozyanio chamasokwe amumuunda.”
Then Jesus left the crowds and went into the house. His disciples came to him and said, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds of the field.”
37 Jesu wakabasandula wamba elyo wakati, “Ooyo ubyala imbuto mbotu Mwana a Muntu.
Jesus answered and said, “He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man.
38 Muunda ninyika; mpawo imbuto mbotu, aba mbana baLeza bamubwami. Imasokwe mbana bamubi umwi.
The field is the world; and the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one,
39 Lino sinkondo wakabyala ngudyabulosi. Butebuzi ngimamanino achiindi, mpawo batebuzi mbaangelo. (aiōn g165)
and the enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels. (aiōn g165)
40 Nkinkako mbuli masokwe mbabunganigwa akuumpwa amulilo, aboobo mbukuyooba kumamanino achiindi. (aiōn g165)
Therefore, as the weeds are gathered up and burned with fire, so will it be at the end of the age. (aiōn g165)
41 Mwana amuntu uyotuma baangelo bakwe, elyo bayobunganisya aanze abwami bwakwe zintu zyoonse zyakali kuchita kuti kube ababo bakachita zitelede.
The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all the things that cause sin and those who commit iniquity.
42 Bayobawalila mumabanga banga amulilo, nkubanoli kabakwila akuyoluma intwino.
They will throw them into the furnace of fire, where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth.
43 Elyo kuyoba bantu balume kabamweka mbuli zuba mubwami bwa Wisi. Ulamatwi, ngamvwe
Then will the righteous people shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him listen.
44 Ibwami bwakujulu buli mbuli buvubi busisidwe mumuunda. Muntu wakabona akubusisa. Mukukondwa kwakwe wakinka, wakawuzya zintu zyoonse nzyakali azyo, akuyowula munda oyo.
The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in a field. A man found it and hid it. In his joy he goes, sells everything he possesses, and buys that field.
45 Alubo, Bwami bwakujulu bulimbuli muntu musambali uyandula ngale imbotu.
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a man who is a merchant looking for valuable pearls.
46 Nakijana imwi ngale imbotu, wakeenda akuzya zyoonse nzyakalazyo zintu akuyoyiwula.
When he found one pearl of very great value, he went and sold everything that he possessed and bought it.
47 Alubo bwami bwakujulu buli mbuli kazamba kakawalwa mulwizi, mpawo kabungania baswi bamisyobo yoonse.
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was cast into the sea, and that gathered creatures of every kind.
48 Nikakazula, bazubi bakakabweza, bazubi bakakakwelela aanze kunkomwe. Elyo bakakkala ansi akubungania imbotu muzibikilo, pesi zyakatali kabotu bakazisowa.
When it was filled, the fishermen drew it up on the beach. Then they sat down and gathered the good things into containers, but the worthless things they threw away.
49 Kuyoba obo kumamanino achindi. Baangelo bayosika akuyowandanya babi kuzwa kubaluleme. (aiōn g165)
It will be this way at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the wicked from among the righteous. (aiōn g165)
50 Bayobawalila mumabangabanga oko nkubayokwila akuyoluma intwino zyameno.
They will throw them into the furnace of fire, where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth.
51 “Mwazimvwa na zintu eezi zyoonse?” Basikwiiya bakati kulinguwe, “Iyii.”
Have you understood all these things?” The disciples said to him, “Yes.”
52 Mpawo Jesu wakamba kuti kulimbabo, “Aboobo woonse mulembi wamulawu waba sikwiya kubwami bwakujulu ulimbuli muntu mwiningánda, ugwisya aanze zintu zyakwe zikulukulu ezipya kuzwa muzibikilo zyakwe.”
Then Jesus said to them, “Therefore every scribe who has become a disciple to the kingdom of heaven is like a man who is the owner of a house, who draws out old and new things from his treasure.”
53 Abobo nichakaba kuti Jesu wamaninsya zikozyanio ezi, wakazwa kubusena oobo.
Then it came about that when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed from that place.
54 Eelyo Jesu nakanjila kuchisi chakwe akuyiisya bantu muchikombelo chabo. Chakazwa chakuti bakagamba akwamba kuti, “Muntu oyu ubujana kuli busongo bwakwe anguzu zyamalele aaya?
Then Jesus entered his own region and taught the people in their synagogue. The result was that they were astonished and said, “Where does this man get his wisdom and these miracles from?
55 Oyu muntu teensi mwana wamubezi na? Sena banyina tabitwi kuti Meli? Sena bana bakwabo tabali ba Jemusi, Jozefu, Sayimoni a Judasi?
Is not this man the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary? Are not his brothers James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas?
56 Sena bachizi bakwe, tabali akkati kesu? Uzijana kuli zintu zyoonse ezi?”
Are not all his sisters with us? Where did he get all these things?”
57 Bakalimvwa kabali amulandu anguwe. Pesi Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Musinsimi takwe bulemu kunze akuchisi chakulimbabo amumpuli yakwe.”
They were offended by him. But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his own country and in his own family.”
58 Alubo takwe pe nakachita malele miingi nkuko akambo kakutamusyoma kwabo.
He did not do many miracles there because of their unbelief.
