Matthew 16
1 [Some] Pharisees and Sadducees came to [Jesus] and asked him [to perform] a miracle that would prove [that] [had sent him].
Abhafarisayo na Abhasadukayo bhamulibhile Yesu no okumusaka koleleki abholeshe echibharikisho chinu echisoka mulwire.
2 He answered them, “[In this country], in the evening you say, ‘[It will be] good weather [tomorrow], because the sky is red.’
Nawe Yesu nabhasubhya nabhabhwila kutya “Ikakinga kegolo nimwaika kutya omuyaga ni gwakisi, kulwokubha olwire ni lumutuku.
3 [Early] in the morning [you say], ‘It will be stormy weather today, because the sky is red, and dark clouds have formed.’ You understand how to predict [the weather by looking at the sky], but you cannot [seem to look at what is happening] now, [and by that] understand [what God is doing].
Ikabha katondo ni mwaika ati 'Omuyaga gwa lelo gutali gwakisi kulwokubha olwire nilumutuku na amele gafundikiye olwire lwona.' Omumenya okugajula kutyo olutumba luli, nawe mutakutula okugajula ebhibharikisho ebhya akatungu.
4 [You] evil people have seen me [perform miracles] but you do not faithfully worship God [MET]. You want to see [me perform] a miracle [that would prove that God has sent me]. But [God] will [enable you to see] only one miracle. It will be [like] what happened [MET] to Jonah, [the prophet, who was inside a huge fish for three days and then came out of it to live again].” Then Jesus left them and sailed away, [along with us disciples].
Olwibhulo olunyamuke nolwo obhusiani olulonda echibhalikisho, nawe chitalio echibhalikisho chona chona chinu luliyabhwa, Tali chilia echa Yona. Nio Yesu nabhasiga nagenda jae.
5 [We] forgot to take bread when [we] sailed to another edge of [the lake].
Abheigisibhwa bhaye nibhagobha ingego indi, nawe bhaliga bhalabhiwe okugega emikate.
6 [Then] Jesus said to us, “Beware [that you do not accept] the yeast [MET] that the Pharisees and Sadducees [distribute].”
Yesu nabhabhwila ati, “mwiyangalile na mubhe nobhwenge ingulu ye echifwimbya cha Abhafarisayo na Abhasadukayo.”
7 Then, [not realizing that he was speaking figuratively], [we] said to one another, “[He must have said that] because we forgot to bring any bread!”
Abheigisibhwa nibhebhusya abhene kwa abhene nibhaika ati, Injuno nati chitagega emikate”
8 Because Jesus knew what [we were saying], he said [to us], “(I am disappointed that you are discussing among yourselves, [thinking] that [it was because] you did not bring any bread [that I talked about the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees]./Why are you discussing among yourselves thinking that it was because you did not bring any bread [that I talked about the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees]?) [RHQ] You believe only a little [what I am able to do for you].
Yesu nagumenya ogwo naika ati, 'Emwe abhalikilisha litoto, Kubhaki omwiganilisha nokwaikana Emwe abhene nimwaika ati insonga mutagega emikate?
9 (You should understand [that I can continue to do miracles to provide for what you need./] you not yet understand [that I can provide miraculously for you if you need food]?) [RHQ] Do you not remember that 5,000 [people ate when I multiplied the] five small loaves [and the two fish? And after everyone had enough to eat], you collected [twelve] baskets [of left-over pieces] [RHQ]!
Muchali kumenya nolwo kwijuka emikate jiliya etanu ku bhanu bhiumbi bhitanu, na mwakumenye ebhibho bhilinga ebhyobhusigala?
10 [Do you not remember] [RHQ] [that] 4,000 [people ate when I multiplied the] seven small loaves [and a few fish]? And [after everyone had enough to eat], you collected [seven] large baskets [of left-over pieces]
Amo emikate musanju kubhanu bhiumbi bhina, na mwagegele ebhibho bhilinga?
11 (You should have understood that I was not speaking about [real] bread [that contains yeast]./Why have you not understood that I was not speaking about [real] bread [that contains yeast?]) [RHQ] What I [was saying] was that you should [not accept what] the Pharisees and Sadducees [say, because it would affect you like] yeast [affects] [MET] [dough].”
Jabha kutiki okukingila mubhule okumenya lwakutyo naliga nitakuloma nemwe ingulu ye mikate? Mugwatane ni mwikenga need echifwimbya cha Abhafarisayo na Abhasadukayo.”
12 Then we understood that he was not talking about the yeast that is [in] bread. Instead, [he was talking] about the [wrong] teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Ni bheya nibhamenya nkanikwo aliga atabhabwila ingulu yo okwikinga ne mikate jinu jitanachifwibhya, tali okwikenga na ameigisho ga Abhafarisayo na Abhasadukayo.
13 When Jesus came with [us] disciples to the region near Caesarea Philippi [town], he asked us, “Who do people say that I, the one who came from heaven, [really] am?”
Yesu ejile akakinga mumbalama ja Kaisaria ya Filipi, nabhabhusha abheigisibhwa bhae, naika ati, “Angu abhanu abhaika ati Omwana wo Omunu niga?”
14 We answered, “Some [people say that you are] John the Baptizer, [who has come back to life again]. Others say [that you are the prophet] Elijah, [who has returned from heaven as God promised]. [Still] others [say that you are the prophet] Jeremiah or one of the [other] prophets [who lived long ago, who has come back to life again].”
Nibhaika ati, “Abhandi abhaika ati ni Yoana Omubhatija; Abhandi Eliya; ka abhandi, Yeremia, amo umwi wabhalagi.
15 Jesus said to us, “[What about] you? Who do you say that I am?”
Nabhabhwila ati, “Kemwe omwaika ati anye nanyega?”
16 Simon Peter said to him, “You are the Messiah! You are the Son of the all-powerful God.”
Mbe lisubhyo nilisoka ku Simoni Petro naika ati, “Awe nawe Kristo Omwana wa Mungu unu alamile.”
17 Then Jesus said to him, “Simon, son of Jonah, [God] is pleased with you. What you just said was not [SYN] revealed to you by any human. Instead, [it was] my Father [who lives] in heaven [who revealed this to you].
Yesu namusubhya namubhwila ati, “awe ulinalibhando, Simoni Bari Yona, kulwokubha amanyinga no omubhili bhitakwelesha omusango ogwo, Tali ni Lata wani unu ali mulwire.
18 I will also tell you this: You are Peter, [which means rock]. [You are like] a rock. What you [and your fellow apostles teach] (OR, [what] you [do]) [will be like a foundation on which I] will create congregations of people who [believe in] me. And the demons [PRS], [who live] where the dead people who lived evil lives are, will not be able to [come and] prevent [MET] [me from doing] that.” (Hadēs g86)
Mbe anye ona enikubhwila ati awe nawe Petro, na ingulu ya litare linu enija okumbakako likanisa lyani. Ne emilyango ja nyombe jitalitula kuliiga. (Hadēs g86)
19 [Then, speaking to all of us, he said], “I will enable you [(pl)] to have authority [MTY] over the groups of people over whose lives [God] rules. Whatever you forbid regarding those people [MTY], it will have been forbidden by God. Whatever you permit [MET] regarding them, it will have been permitted by God.”
Ndikuyana jinfungurujo Jo obhukama bhwa mulwire. Chonachona chinu ulibhoya muchalo (munsi) chilibha chibhoyelwe mulwire, na chonachona chinu uligula munsi chiligulwa nolwo mulwire.
20 Then Jesus warned [us] disciples strongly not to tell anyone [at that time] that he is the Messiah.
“Neya Yesu nabhalagilila abheigisibhwa bhasiga kubhwila omunu wonawona ati omwene niwe Kristo.
21 From that time Jesus began to teach [us] disciples that it was necessary for him to go to Jerusalem [city]. There the ruling elders, the chief priests, and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws would cause him to suffer and (be killed/die). Then on the third day [after that], he would become alive again.
Kwambila akatungu ako Yesu namba obhwabhila abheigisibhwa bhaye ati ni bhusibhusi agende Yerusalemu, anyasibhwe kumagambo mafu mumabhoko ga abhakaruka na abhakulu bha bha abhagabhisi na abhandiki, okunyita no okusuruka olunaku lwa kasatu.
22 [Because Peter assumed that the Messiah would not suffer and die], he took Jesus aside and began to rebuke him [for talking about suffering and dying]. He said, “Lord, may [God] never permit that to happen to you! That must certainly not happen!”
Neya Petro nasubhya Yesu kumbali namugonya, kwo kumubhwila ati “Omusango gunu gubhe kula nawe, Lata bhugenyi elyo lyasiga okukubhona.
23 Then Jesus turned [to look at] Peter, and he said to him, “Stop talking to me [like that] [MTY]! [Stop saying what] Satan [MET] [would say, and stop] trying to prevent [from happening what God has planned]! You are a hindrance to me, because you are not thinking like God thinks. Instead, [you are thinking] like people [think]!”
Nawe Yesu nainduka namubhwila Petro ati, “Shetani subha inyuma Yani, kulwokubha oweselanya amagambo ga Nyamuanga, nawe ugwatilie amagambo ga abhana bhanu.”
24 Then Jesus said to [us] disciples, “If any one [of you] wants to be my disciple, you must not do [only] what you yourself want [to do]. [You] must be willing to [let people hurt you and disgrace you. That is like what they do to criminals whom they force to] carry a cross [MET] [to the place where the criminals will be executed. That is what anyone who wants to] be my disciple [must do].
Neya Yesu nabhwila abheigisibhwa bhaye ati, “Omunu wonawona akabha nenda okundubha, nibhusibhusi egane omwene, etwike omusalabha gwaye, nio asoke inyuma.
25 [You must do that], because those who try to save their lives [by denying that they belong to me when people want to kill them for believing in me] will not live [eternally], but those who are killed [because of being my disciples] will live [with God eternally].
Kulwokubha unukenda okukisha obhulame bhwaye kabhusha, na kuwona wona unu kabhusha ubhulame bhwaye kulwa injuno yani kabhukisha.
26 People [might] get everything [they want] in this world, but ([if they do not become my disciples], they would really be gaining nothing [because] they would not get eternal life!/what would they gain [if they do not become my disciples and thus] do not get eternal life?) [RHQ] (There is absolutely nothing that people can give [to God] that would enable them to gain eternal life./What can people give [to God] that could enable them to gain eternal life?) [MTY, RHQ]
Ni matundoki ganu kabhona omunu akabhona echalo chona nawe akabhusha obhulame bhwaye? Mbee, omunu katula okusosha chinuki koleleki aingye no obhulame bhwaye?
27 [Listen carefully: I], the one who came from heaven, [will leave this earth, but] I will return, and the angels of heaven will accompany me. At that time I will have the glorious [radiance] that my Father has, and I will reward everyone according to what they did [when they were living on earth].
Kulwokubha Omwana Womunu alijila mwikusho lye Esemwene na bhamalaika bhaye. Alija okusosha omuyelo kubhuli munu okwingana ne ebhikolwa ebhikolwa bhaye.
28 Listen carefully! Some of you who are here now will see [me], the one who came from heaven, when I return to rule. You will see this before you die!”
Nichimali enibhabhwila ati bhalio abhandi mwimwe bhanu mwimeleguyu anu bhanu mutaliloja olufu okukingila okulola Omwana Womunu naja mubhukama bhwaye.
