Matthew 21
1 And, when they drew near unto Jerusalem, and came unto Bethphage, unto the Mount of Olives, then, Jesus sent forth two disciples;
Awo Jesu abasikwiya bakwe nibakasika ku Jelusalema alubo bakakusika ku Bbetipegi, kukalundu ka Olivusi, mpawo Jesu wakatuma basikwiya bakwe bobile,
2 saying unto them—Be going into the village that is over against you, and, straightway, ye shall find an ass, bound, and a colt with her, —loose them, and lead them unto me.
wakati kuli mbao, “Kamuya kumunzi ulikunembo, alimwi muyofwambana kubona donki lyangidwe nkuko, alubo akana kelyo. Mwawangunune mwalete kulindime.
3 And, if anyone, unto you, say aught, ye shall say—Their Lord, hath, need, —and, straightway, he will send them.
Kuti kwaba utabe achakwamba atala angawo, mukambe kuti, 'Mwami ulayanda,'alimwi oyo muntu uyofwambana kumupa ngawo.
4 But, this, hath come to pass, that it might be fulfilled, which was spoken through the prophet, saying:
'Lino kwakaba kuti ezyo zyakali zyambwa kwinda kumusinsimi zizuzikizigwe. Wakati,
5 Tell ye the daughter of Zion, Lo! thy King, is coming unto thee, meek and mounted upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of a toiling ass.
“Ambila mwana musimbi we Zioni, 'Langa, Mwami wanu ulaza kulindinywe, Ulibombede alimwi ulitantide a donki, Akukana ka donki, mwana we donki.”
6 And the disciples, went, and did as Jesus directed them;
Mpawo basikwiya bakinka bakuchita mbunya Jesu mbwakabalayililide.
7 and led the ass and the colt, and laid upon them their garments, and he took his seat upon them.
Bakakuleta donki akana alubo bakabika zikobela zyabo a donki, alimwi Jesu Jesu wakakkala ajulu azikobela.
8 And, the chief multitude, spread their own mantles in the way, and, others, were cutting off young branches from the trees, and spreading them in the way;
Makamumakamu manji akayala zikobela zyabo mumugwagwa, alimwi bamwi bakagonka ntabi zyamisamu akuyobuyala mumugwagwa.
9 and the multitudes, they who were going before him and they who were following after, were crying aloud, saying—Hosanna! to the Son of David, Blessed is he that is coming in the name of the Lord, Hosanna in the highest.
Mpawo makamu akenda kunembo lya Jesu alubo abaabo bakali kuyobutobela kabayobompolola, “Hosana kumwana wa Davida!” Ulongezezegwe ngoyo uuza muzina lya Mwami! Hosana kuli simajulu!”
10 And, when he entered into Jerusalem, all the city was startled, saying—Who is this?
Elyo Jesu nakasika ku Jelusalema, idolopo lyoonse lyakali lyanyonganisigwa akwamba kuti, “Ngwani oyu?”
11 And, the multitudes, were saying—This, is the prophet Jesus, —He from Nazareth of Galilee.
Makamumakamu akasandula, “Oyu ngu Jesu musinsimi uzwa waku Nazaleta mu Galili.”
12 And Jesus entered into the temple, and cast out all who were selling and buying in the temple, —and, the tables of the money-changers, he overthrew, and the seats of them who were selling doves;
Mpwo Jesu wakanjila mungánda ya Leza. Wakaandilanze boonse abo bakali kuula akuuzya mungánda ya Leza, alubo wakasandamuna matafula abasikuzizya mali alubo azikkalo zyababo bakali kuzya nziba.
13 and saith unto them—It is written, My house, a house of prayer, shall be called; but, ye, are making it, A den of robbers!
Wakati kulimbabo, “Kulilembedwe, 'Ngánda yangu iyowambwa kuti ngánda yakukambya; pesi mwayichita kuti ibe chikkalilo chababb.”
14 And there came unto him blind and lame, in the temple, and he cured them.
Mpawo mofu achilima bakeza kulinguwe mungánda ya Leza, alubo wakabaponya.
15 But the Chief-priests and the Scribes, seeing, the marvels that he wrought, and the boys who were crying aloud in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the Son of David! were greatly displeased;
Pesi elyo bapayiza bapati alubo abalembi bamulawu nibakabona zintu nzyakachita, alubo elyo nibakamvwa bana balompolola mungánda yaLeza alubo balamba, “Hosana kumwana a Davida, “bakaba akunyema kupati.
16 and said unto him—Hearest thou what these are saying? And, Jesus, saith unto them—Yea: Have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings, hast thou prepared praise?
Bakati kulinguwe, “Ulibamvwide na kuti balikutyeni Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Iyii! Pesi takwe nimwakabalide, 'kuzwa kumilomo yabana banini atunyonka wakabamba intembawuzyo'?”
17 And, leaving them behind, he went forth outside the city into Bethany, and spent the night there.
Mpawo Jesu wakabasiya alubo akuzwa mudolopo lya Bbetani akumana busiku nkuko.
18 And, early, returning into the city, he hungered;
Lino kuseni wakayinka nakali kujokela kudolopo, wakali waba anzala.
19 and, seeing one fig-tree by the way, he came up to it, and nothing, found he thereon, save leaves only, —and he saith unto it—No more, from thee, let fruit spring forth, unto times age-abiding, —and the fig-tree, instantly withered away. (aiōn g165)
Nakabona mukuyu munsi lyamugwagwa, wakayinka kulinguwo akujana kakutakwe chintu kuli nguwo kunze kwamatu. Wakaamba kuti kulinguwo, “Kutakabi kuti kukabe michelo lubo kuzwa kulinduwe alimbi,” alubo mponya awo mukuyu wakapusama. (aiōn g165)
20 And the disciples, seeing it, marvelled, saying—How instantly, did the fig-tree wither away.
Elyo basikwiya nibakawubona, bakagamba akwamba bati, “Ibiyeni mukuyu wapusama mpawonyaawa?”
21 And Jesus, answering, said unto them—Verily, I say unto you, If ye have faith, and do not doubt, not only, this of the fig-tree, shall ye do, —but, even if, unto this mountain, ye shall say, Be lifted up, and be cast into the sea, it shall be done.
Jesu wakasandula akwamba kulimbabo, “Masimpe ndamba kulindinywe, na mulijisi lusyomo alubo kamutadoneki, tamukwe nimuyochita zyakachitwa amukuyu biyo pe, pesi muyowamba nikuba kuchilundu echi, 'Zyukuka akuwalwa mulwizi; alubo ziyochitika.
22 And, all things whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
Kufumbwa nchimuyolomba munkombyo, chakuzumina, muyozitambula.”
23 And, when he, entered, the temple, the Chief-priests and the Elders of the people, came unto him as he was teaching, saying, By what authority, these things, art thou doing? and, who, to thee, gave, this authority?
Elyo Jesu nakasika mungánda yaLeza. Bapayizi bapati antomwe abapati babantu bakasika kulinguwe kali mukuyisya basikuti, “Anguzu nzi nzyochitya zintu ezi, alubo ngwani wakakupa nguzu ezi?”
24 And, making answer, Jesus said unto them—I also, will ask, you, one thing, —which if ye tell me, I also, will tell, you, by what authority, these things, I am doing: —
Jesu wakasandula akwamba kulimbabo, “Ambebo ndilamubuzya mubuzyo umwi. Na mwandambila, ndiyomwambila kuti nkunguzunzi nzindichitya ezi.
25 The immersion by John, whence was it? Of heaven, or of men? But, they, began to deliberate among themselves, saying—If we say, Of heaven; He will say unto us, Wherefore then did ye not believe him?
Lubbabbatizyo lwaJoni - nkukuli nkulwakazwa? Lwakazwa kujulu na kuti nkubantu?” Bakambuzyania akati kabo, bakati,
26 But, if we say, Of men, we fear the multitude, for, all, as a prophet, are holding John.
“Na tutedi, Luzwa kujulu,' Ulamba kuti kulindiswe, 'Nkambonzi mpo nimwakatamusyoma?'Pesi na tutedi nkubantu,'tuyowa nkamu yabantu nkambo boonse babona Joni mbuli musinsimi.”
27 And, making answer to Jesus, they said—We know not. He also, said unto them—Neither do, I, tell, you, by what authority, these things, I am doing.
Mpawo bakasandula Jesu alubo bati, “Tatuzi pe.” Wakamba alimwi kulimbabo, “Nsikwe nensikamwambile ambebo kuti ninguzunzi nzindichitya azyozintu ezi.
28 But how, to you, doth it seem? A man, had two sons: coming unto the first, he said, Son! go thy way, to-day, be working in the vineyard.
Pesi muyeyaanzi mwalumi wakali abana balombe babili. Wakaya kumutanzi alubo wakati, “mwanangu, koya ukabeleke sunu mumunda wamasansa.
29 And, he, answering, said, I, sir! and went not;
“Mwana wakasandula wati, “Tandiinki, pesi mukuya kwachiindi wakasandula mizezo yakwe wakinka.
30 And, coming unto the second, he spake, in like manner, —and, he, answering, said, I will not: afterwards, smitten with regret, he went.
Mpawo mwalumi wakaya kumwana wachibili akwamba chintu chikozyenie. Wakasandula wati, 'Ndilayinka, 'Ta; pesi takwe nakinka pe.
31 Which of the two, did the will of the father? They say, The latter. Jesus saith unto them—Verily, I say unto you, the tax-collectors and the harlots, are going before you, into the kingdom of God;
Nguuli mubana babili aba wakachita kuyanda kwawisi?” Bakati, “Mutanzi.” Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Masimpe ndaamba kulindinywe, basimutelo abasimamambe bayonjila mubwami bwa Leza kamutana kunjila.
32 For John came unto you, in a way of righteousness, and ye believed him not, —but, the tax-collectors and the harlots, believed him; and, ye, seeing it, were not even smitten with regret, afterwards, so as to believe him.
Nkambo Joni wakeza kulindinywe minzila yabululami, pesitemwakamusyoma pe. Pesi basimutelo abasimamambe bakamusyoma. Pesi nywebo, nikuba elyo mwakazibona ezi, temwakeempwa mukuya kwachindi alubo temwakamusyoma.
33 Another parable, hear ye: —A man there was, a householder, who planted a vineyard, and, a wall around it, placed, and digged in it a wine-vat, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, —and left home.
“Amuswilile kuli ambi mambilambali. Kwakali umwi mwalumi, mukamwini munda wakabyala masansa, wakayaka lubaya alinguwo; wasikusya chikandilo mukati kawo, wayaka ngánda yamujulu, alubo wakayiboleka kuli basikulima masansa. Mpawo wakaya kulichimwi chisi
34 And, when the season of fruits drew near, He sent forth his servants unto the husbandmen to receive his fruits.
Elyo chiindi chakutebulwa kwamasansa nichakasika, wakatuma bamwi babelesi kuli basikulimina masansa kuti bakabweze michelo yakwe.
35 And the husbandmen, taking his servants, one, indeed, they beat, and, another, slew, —and, another, stoned.
Pesi basikulimina masansa bakabweza babelesi bakwe bawuma umwi, bajaya awumwi, alubo bamutulula mabwe.
36 Again, sent he forth other servants, more than the first, and they did unto them, likewise.
Alubo, mwanimunda wakatuma bambi babelesi bayingi kwinda batanzi, pesi basikulimina masansa bakabajata zikozyenie.
37 Afterwards, however, he sent forth unto them his son, saying, —They will pay deference unto my son!
Kwiinda awo, mwanimunda wakazotuma mwanakwe kulimbabo, kuti, 'Bayo mulemeka mwanangu.
38 But, the husbandmen, seeing the son, said among themselves, —This, is, the heir: Come on! Let us slay him, and have his inheritance.
“Pesi elyo balimi bamasansa nibakabona mwana, bakati akati kabo, 'Ngoyu sikukona. Mubole, muleke tumujaye akubweza lukono.
39 And, taking him, they cast him forth outside the vineyard, —and slew him.
'Nkinkako bakamubweza, bamusowela kunze amuunda akumujaya.
40 When therefore the master of the vineyard shall come, what will he do unto those husbandmen?
Lino elyo mwanimunda asika, ninzi nchayochita abo balimi bamasansa?”
41 They say unto him—Miserable men! Miserably, will he destroy them; and will let out, the vineyard, to other husbandmen, who will render unto him the fruits in their seasons.
Bakati kulinguwe, “Uyonyonyona abo baalumi babuyo muli imwi nzila njumu, alubo uyobatandila aanze amuunda akubika bambi basikulimina masansa, bantu bayomupa chabilo chazilimwa kuchiindi chakuyebula.”
42 Jesus saith unto them—Have ye, never, read in the Scriptures, A stone which the builders rejected, the same, hath become, head of the corner: From the Lord, hath this come to pass, and is marvellous in our eyes.
Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Sena temwakabala mumalembe, Íbbwe bayaki ndibakakaka lyakachitwa munsemo. Echi chakazwa ku Mwami, alubo zilagambya mumeso esu'?
43 Wherefore I say unto you, The kingdom of God, will be taken away from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof:
Nkinkako ndamba kuti kulindinywe, bwami bwa Leza buyobwezwa kuzwa kulindinywe akuyopegwa kuchisi chiyopanga michelo yacho.
44 [And, he that falleth on this stone, will be sorely bruised; but, on whomsoever it may fall, it will utterly destroy him.]
Kufumbwa uwida atala abbwe eli ulakutyoka kuba tumpanzi, pesi umwi ngulitawide atala ulakupwasuka.”
45 And the Chief-priests and the Pharisees, hearing his parables, took note, that, concerning them, he was speaking.
Elyo bapayizi bapati aba Falisi nibakamvwa mambilambali akwe, bakamvwisisisya kuti wakalikwamba ataala ambabo.
46 And, seeking to secure him, they feared the multitudes; since, for a prophet, were they holding him.
Bakayandula kumwanga, pesi bakayoowa makamu abantu, nkambo bantu bakali mujisi mbuli musinsiimi.
