Matthew 7
1 Judge not, that ye may not be judged;
Mutabeteki, nkambo muzobetekwa.
2 for with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged; and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you.
Alubeta ndomutakabeteke alo muyobetekwa aandulo, achelesyo nchimuyoyelesya, muyokuyelesezegwa anchicho.
3 But why lookest thou on the mote that is in the eye of thy brother, but observest not the beam that is in thine eye?
Nkambonzi nulanga katanda kali mulinso lyamukulana wako, pele wasiya itanda lili mulinso lyako?
4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Allow [me], I will cast out the mote from thine eye; and behold, the beam is in thine eye?
Chilakonzeka na kuti utedi kumukulana, leka ndikugusye katanda kali mulinso lyako; kakuli tanda mulinso lyako?
5 Hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine eye, and then thou wilt see clearly to cast out the mote out of the eye of thy brother.
Inywe nobasikuupaupa! Tanguna kugusya itanda lilimulinso lyako, alubo ulakonzya kubona kabotu katanda kalimulinso lyamukulana wako.
6 Give not that which is holy to the dogs, nor cast your pearls before the swine, lest they trample them with their feet, and turning round rend you.
Mutapi zisalala kubankala, alubo mutasoweli zibi kumpela angulube. Ulabona zyalyatuulwa aansi amawulu, alubo zilasanduka akumudabula mutu fwapufwapu.
7 Ask, and it shall be given to you. Seek, and ye shall find. Knock, and it shall be opened to you.
Amukumbile, alubo muyopegwa. Amuyandawule, mulajana. Amukonkomone mulajulilwa.
8 For every one that asks receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened.
Nkambo umwi awumwi ukumbila ulatambula, alakwe uyanduula ulajana alakwe uukonkomona ulajulilwa.
9 Or what man is there of you who, if his son shall ask of him a loaf of bread, will give him a stone;
Nguli muntu akati kenu uupa mwanaakwe ibbwe, amukumbila insima?
10 and if he ask a fish, will give him a serpent?
Alimwi, kuti wakumbila imuswi, sa ulamupa inzoka?
11 If therefore ye, being wicked, know [how] to give good gifts to your children, how much rather shall your Father who is in the heavens give good things to them that ask of him?
Lino mbuli bmumuzi kupa bana benu zintu zibotu, inywe nobabi, alakwe Wuso wenu ulikujulu sa tazoyindi loko kupa zintu zibotu kulibaabo bamukumbila?
12 Therefore all things whatever ye desire that men should do to you, thus do ye also do to them; for this is the law and the prophets.
Nkaambo kaako zintu zyoonse zili buti nzimuyanda kuti bantu bamuchitile, anywebo amubachitile nzizyoonya, nkambo mbuboobo mbuwamba mulawo abasinsimi.
13 Enter in through the narrow gate, for wide the gate and broad the way that leads to destruction, and many are they who enter in through it.
Amunjile mumulyango umanikide, nkambo mulyango ukwazamukide anzila impati njiitola kukunyoonyoka, nkabela abo banjila mulinjiyo mbanji banji.
14 For narrow the gate and straitened the way that leads to life, and they are few who find it.
Pesi mulyango umanikide anzila ipatide njiitola kubuumi, nkabela abo banjila mbache.
15 But beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but within are ravening wolves.
Amuchenjelele basinsimi babeji beeza kulindinywe basamide zyakusama zyambelele, anukuti mukati lyabo mbawumpe babutambo.
16 By their fruits ye shall know them. Do [men] gather a bunch of grapes from thorns, or from thistles figs?
Michelo yabo njiiti muzibye mbubabede. Sa kulachelwa masansa kumuunga niziba inkuyu kumutubatuba?
17 So every good tree produces good fruits, but the worthless tree produces bad fruits.
Mbubonya obo musamu umwi awumwi mubotu ulazyala michelo mibotu, alimwi musamu usampawukide ulazyala michelo mibi.
18 A good tree cannot produce bad fruits, nor a worthless tree produce good fruits.
Musamu mubotu tukonzyi kuzyala michelo mibi, alimwi musamu usampawukide tukonzyi kuzyala michelo mibotu,
19 Every tree not producing good fruit is cut down and cast into the fire.
Musamu umwi awumwi utazyali michelo mibotu ulatemwa akusowelwa mumulilo.
20 By their fruits then surely ye shall know them.
Aboobo michelo yabo njita muzibye mbubabede.
21 Not every one who says to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of the heavens, but he that does the will of my Father who is in the heavens.
Boonse bandambila kuti, Mwami, Mwami, teensi mbabo bayonjila mubwami bwakujulu, ngooyo uuchita luyando lwa-Taata uli kujulu.
22 Many shall say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied through thy name, and through thy name cast out demons, and through thy name done many works of power?
Kubuzuba obo banji banji bayondambila njako alimwi sa teensi kuzina lyako nkutwakatanda madayimona Sa teensi kuzina lyako nkotwakachita milimo mipati myiingi?'
23 and then will I avow unto them, I never knew you. Depart from me, workers of lawlessness.
Lino nzobaambila kuti, nsimuzi pe, amuzwe kulindime inywe nubamuchita zibi!'
24 Whoever therefore hears these my words and does them, I will liken him to a prudent man, who built his house upon the rock;
Nkambo kaako umwi awumwi uuswilila majwi aangu aya akwachita uzokozyanisigwa amuntu uchenjede iwakayaka ing'anda yakwe atala amwaala.
25 and the rain came down, and the streams came, and the winds blew and fell upon that house, and it did not fall, for it had been founded upon the rock.
Lino imvula yakawa nyingi, milonga yakeeta, amyuuwo yakawunga, yakawuma ang'anda eyo, nekuba boobo teyakawa pe, nkambo yakatalikilidwe aamwala.
26 And every one who hears these my words and does not do them, he shall be likened to a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand;
Pele umwi awumwi uuswilila majwi aangu aya akutachita uzokozyanisigwa amuntu mufuba fuba iwakayaka ing'anda yakwe amusele,
27 and the rain came down, and the streams came, and the winds blew and beat upon that house, and it fell, and its fall was great.
lino niyakawa imvula milonga yakeeta, myuuwo yakawunga, yakawuma ang'anda eyo, elyo yakawa, nkabela buwe bwayo bwakakomena.
28 And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these words, the crowds were astonished at his doctrine,
Lino Jesu nakamana kwamba majwi aya oonse, makamu makamu abantu aka kankabala kukuyiisya kwakwe,
29 for he taught them as having authority, and not as their scribes.
nkambo wakali kubayiisya chabwami kutakozyenie abalembi babo pe.
