Mark 11
1 And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples,
Wakati huo walipokuja Yerusalemu, walipokaribia Besthfage na Bethania, katika Mlima wa Mizeituni, Yesu aliwatuma wawili miongoni mwa wanafunzi wake
2 And saith unto them, Go your way into the village over against you: and as soon as ye be entered into it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon never man sat; loose him, and bring [him].
na aliwaambia, “Nendeni katika kijiji kinachokabiliana nasi. Mara mtakapoingia humo, mtamkuta mwanapunda ambaye hajapandwa. Mfungueni na mmlete kwangu.
3 And if any man say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye that the Lord hath need of him; and straightway he will send him hither.
Na kama yeyote akiwaambia, 'Kwa nini mnafanya hivi'?, mnapaswa kusema, 'Bwana anamhitaji na mara atamrudisha hapa'.”
4 And they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door without in a place where two ways met; and they loose him.
Walikwenda na kumkuta mwanapunda amefungwa nje mlangoni kwenye mtaa ulio wazi, nao walimfungua.
5 And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye, loosing the colt?
Na baadhi ya watu walikuwa wamesimama pale na waliwaambia, “Mnafanya nini, kumfungua mwanapunda huyo?”
6 And they said unto them even as Jesus had commanded: and they let them go.
Waliwaambia kama Yesu alivyowaambia, na watu wakawaacha waende.
7 And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on him; and he sat upon him.
Wanafunzi wawili walimleta mwanapunda kwa Yesu na walitandika mavazi yao juu yake ili Yesu aweze kumpanda.
8 And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down branches off the trees, and strawed [them] in the way.
Watu wengi wakatandika mavazi yao barabarani, na wengine wakatandika matawi waliyoyakata kutoka mashambani.
9 And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna; Blessed [is] he that cometh in the name of the Lord:
Wale waliokwenda mbele yake na wale waliomfuata walipiga kelele, “Hosana! Amebarikiwa anayekuja kwa jina la Bwana.
10 Blessed [be] the kingdom of our father David, that cometh in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest.
Ubarikiwe ufalme unaokuja wa baba yetu Daudi! Hosana kwa aliye juu”
11 And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and when he had looked round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve.
Ndipo Yesu aliingia Yerusalemu na alikwenda hekaluni na alitazama kila kitu. Sasa, wakati ulikuwa umeenda, alikwenda Bethania pamoja nao kumi na wawili.
12 And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry:
Siku iliyofuata, wakati walipokuwa wakirudi kutoka Bethania, alikuwa na njaa.
13 And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not [yet].
Na akaona mti wa mtini uliokuwa na majani kwa mbali, alikwenda kutazama kama angeweza kupata chochote juu yake. Na wakati alipokwenda kwa huo, hakupata chochote isipokuwa majani, kwa kuwa haikuwa majira ya mtini.
14 And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard [it.] (aiōn g165)
Aliuambia, “Hakuna yeyote atakayekula tunda kutoka kwako tena”. Na wanafunzi wake wakasikia. (aiōn g165)
15 And they come to Jerusalem: and Jesus went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves;
Walikuja Yerusalemu, naye aliingia hekaluni na kuanza kuwatoa nje wauzaji na wanunuzi ndani ya hekalu. Alizipindua meza za wabadilishaji wa fedha na viti vya wale waliokuwa wakiuza njiwa.
16 And would not suffer that any man should carry [any] vessel through the temple.
Hakumruhusu yeyote kubeba chochote hekaluni kilichoweza kuuzwa.
17 And he taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of all nations the house of prayer? but ye have made it a den of thieves.
Aliwafundisha na akasema, “Je haikuandikwa, 'nyumba yangu itaitwa nyumba ya sala kwa mataifa yote'? Lakini mmeifanya pango la wanyang'anyi”.
18 And the scribes and chief priests heard [it], and sought how they might destroy him: for they feared him, because all the people was astonished at his doctrine.
Makuhani wakuu na waandishi walisikia alivyokuwa amesema, nao walitafuta njia ya kumwua. Hata hivyo walimwogopa kwa sababu umati ulishangazwa na mafundisho yake.
19 And when even was come, he went out of the city.
Na kila wakati jioni ilipofika, waliondoka mjini.
20 And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
Walipokuwa wakitembea asubuhi, waliuona mti wa mtini umekauka mpaka kwenye mizizi yake.
21 And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.
Petro alikumbuka na kusema, “Rabi! Tazama, mti wa mtini ulioulaani umekauka”.
22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
Yesu aliwajibu, “Muwe na imani katika Mungu.
23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
Amini nawaambia kwamba kila auambiaye mlima huu, 'Ondoka, na ukajitupe mwenyewe baharini, 'na kama hana mashaka moyoni mwake lakini anaamini kwamba alichokisema kitatokea, hivyo ndivyo Mungu atakavyofanya.
24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive [them], and ye shall have [them].
Kwa hiyo ninawaambia: kila kitu muombacho na kuuliza kwa ajili yake, aminini kwamba mmepokea, navyo vitakuwa vyenu.
25 And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.
Wakati mnaposimama na kuomba, mnapaswa kusamehe chochote mlichonacho dhidi ya yeyote, ili kwamba Baba yenu aliye mbinguni awasamehe pia ninyi makosa yenu.
26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.
(Zingatia: Mstari huu, “Lakini msiposamehe, wala Baba yenu aliye mbinguni hatasamehe dhambi zenu” haumo kwenye nakala za kale).
27 And they come again to Jerusalem: and as he was walking in the temple, there come to him the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders,
Walikuja Yerusalemu tena. Na Yesu alipokuwa akitembea hekaluni, makuhani wakuu, waandishi na wazee walikuja kwake.
28 And say unto him, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority to do these things?
Walimwambia, “Kwa mamlaka gani unafanya mambo haya?” Na ni nani aliyekupa mamlaka kuyafanya haya?”
29 And Jesus answered and said unto them, I will also ask of you one question, and answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.
Yesu aliwaambia, “Nitawauliza swali moja. Niambieni na mimi nitawaambia kwa mamlaka gani ninayafanya mambo haya.
30 The baptism of John, was [it] from heaven, or of men? answer me.
Je, ubatizo wa Yohana ulitoka mbinguni au ulitoka kwa wanadamu? Nijibuni.”
31 And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why then did ye not believe him?
Walijadiliana miongoni mwao na kushindana na kusema, “Kama tukisema, 'Kutoka mbinguni,' atasema, 'Kwa nini basi hamkumwamini?'
32 But if we shall say, Of men; they feared the people: for all [men] counted John, that he was a prophet indeed.
Lakini kama tukisema, 'Kutoka kwa wanadamu,'...” Waliwaogopa watu, kwa kuwa wote walishikilia kwamba Yohana alikuwa Nabii.
33 And they answered and said unto Jesus, We cannot tell. And Jesus answering saith unto them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
Ndipo walimjibu Yesu na kusema, “Hatujui. Ndipo Yesu akawaambia, “Wala mimi sitawaambia ni kwa mamlaka gani nayafanya mambo haya.
