< Matthew 16 >

1 The Pharisees and Sadducees came, and testing him, asked him to show them a sign from heaven.
Mafarisayo ni masadukayo batikun'yendya Yesu ni kun'geya apange ishara boka kumaunde.
2 But he answered them, “When it is evening, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.’
Lakini Yesu kabayangwa ni kuabakiya “Pakibile kitamunyo mubaya panga hali ya upepo sapi, kwa mana kunani kwakongolwike.
3 In the morning, ‘It will be foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ Hypocrites! You know how to discern the appearance of the sky, but you cannot discern the signs of the times!
Na kindai mwenda baya, Hali ya upepo leno inanoga kwa kuwa kunani kukele na maunde ngati wekelya kunani kwoti! Mwenda kutanga mwakubile kunani, lakini muweza kwaa tanga ishara ya nyakati.
4 An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and there will be no sign given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah.” He left them and departed.
Kibeleko kichapu ni cha umalaya kipala ishara, lakini ntopo ishara yeyoti yailowa peyelwa, isipokuwa yelo ya Yona, boka po Yesu kabaleka ni kuyenda kachake.
5 The disciples came to the other side and had forgotten to take bread.
Anapunzi baisi upande wana ibele, lakini balibalile potw a mikate.
6 Jesus said to them, “Take heed and beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
Yesu kaabakiya, “Mwitahazari ni mube makini no kwo lola mafarisayo ni masadukayo.”
7 They reasoned among themselves, saying, “We brought no bread.”
Anapunzi ngabalaluyana na kababaya, “Kwa mwanja tupotwi kwaa mikate.”
8 Jesus, perceiving it, said, “Why do you reason among yourselves, you of little faith, because you have brought no bread?
Yesu atangite sabawasa no baya, mwenga mwabene imani njene, mwanja namani muwasike no bakiyana kati yinu no baya panga kwa mwanja tupotwi kwaa mikate?
9 Do not you yet perceive or remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up,
Je mutanga kwaa au muna kombokya kwaa yelo mikate mitano kwa bandu elfu tano, ni itondo ilenga muikusanyile?
10 or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
Au mikate saba kwa bandu elfu ncheche, ni itono ilenga yamwaputwike?
11 How is it that you do not perceive that I did not speak to you concerning bread? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
Ibile kitiwi panga munatanga kwaa yopanga nabile nilongela na mwenga kunani ya mikate? mwilendele na mwiazali na lola kwa mafarisayo ni masadukayo.”
12 Then they understood that he did not tell them to beware of the yeast of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Ngabatubwa tanga panga kumbe abakiya kwa husu kuazari ni mikate yai loi, ila kwiazari na mapundisho ga mafarisayo na masadukayo.
13 Now when Jesus came into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?”
Wakati Yesu paikite ku'Kaisaria ya Filipi kaalaluya anapunzi bake kabaya, “Bandu bakoya mwana wa mundu nga nyai?
14 They said, “Some say John the Baptizer, some, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
Kababaya, wenge wakukema Yohana mbatizaji, benge bakukema wa Eliya, ni benge, bakukema Yeremia, au wa nabii yumo wa manabii.
15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”
Kaabakiya, ni mwenga mwanikema nenga na nyai?
16 Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
Simoni Petro kabaya, “wenga wa Kristo mwana wa Nnongo ywa bii nkoto.”
17 Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.
Yesu kan'yangwa ni kunkokeya, “Utibarikilwa wenga wa Simoni Bar Yona, kwa mana miyai ni nyama yongolike ale, ila Tate bango ywaabile kumaunde.
18 I also tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my assembly, and the gates of Hades (Hadēs g86) will not prevail against it.
Na nenga nendakubakiya panga wenga wa Petro, ni kunani ya liwe linalowa kulichenga likanisa lyango. Milwango ya kuzimu yalishinda kwaa. (Hadēs g86)
19 I will give to you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven; and whatever you release on earth will have been released in heaven.”
Nikupeya wenga funguo ya utawala wa kumaunde. Chochoti ukipangite mu'dunia chatapilwa hata kumaunde, ni chochote chawalowa kukiyowa mu'dunia chalowa yongolewa ni kumaunde.
20 Then he commanded the disciples that they should tell no one that he was Jesus the Christ.
Boka po Yesu kababakiya anapunzi bake kana mwam'bakiye mundu ywoywoti panga ywembe ni Kristo.
21 From that time, Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.
Boka muda woo Yesu atumbwi kuwabakiya panga lazima ayende Yerusalemu, yoteselwa na kwa makowe ganansima mumaboko ga apindo ni apindo ga makuhani ni aandishi, bulangilwa ni yoka lisoba lyene tatu.
22 Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, “Far be it from you, Lord! This will never be done to you.”
Yesu kamtola Petro pambwega na kumkalipya kummakiya, “Likowe le libekutalu na wenga, Ngwana, hale kana libiti kachako.
23 But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me, for you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of men.”
Lakini Yesu atigalambuka ni kummakiya Petro, ubuyangane nchogo yangu nchela! wenga wa kibo kachango, kwa kuwa ujali kwaa makowe ga Nnongo, ila makowe ga bandu.”
24 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.
Boka po Yesu kaabakiya anapunzi bake, “Mana mundu ywoywoti ywapala kunikengama nenga, lazima aikane mwene, aupotwe msalaba wake, ni anikengame.
25 For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it.
Kwasababu ywapala kugaokoa maisha gake alowa gaobeya, na kwa ywoywoti ywa abeya maisha gake kwa ajili yango alowa galamiya.
26 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life? Or what will a man give in exchange for his life?
Je! faida gani ywalowa ipata mundu mana aipatike dunia yoti lakini aobiye maisha gake?
27 For the Son of Man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will render to everyone according to his deeds.
Kwa maana mwana wa Adamu alowa icha mu'utukufu wa Tate bake na malaika bake na Ywembe alowa kunepa kila mundu lengana na matendo gake.
28 Most certainly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste of death until they see the Son of Man coming in his Kingdom.”
Kweli nenda kummakiya baazi yinu mwamuyemi paa, mwalowa paya kwa kiwo mpaka pabamwona mwana wa Adamu kaicha mu utawala wake.
