Matthew 28
1 After (the Sabbath/the Jewish day of rest) [ended], on Sunday morning at dawn, Mary from Magdala and the other Mary went to look at the tomb.
Busuba bwa Sabata ya Bayuda mpobwalapita, Maliya waku Magadala ne Maliya naumbi, mumenemene kapacili pashipuluka pasondo, balaya kusula kumanda.
2 Suddenly there was a strong earthquake. [At the same time] an angel from God came down from heaven. He [went to the tomb and] rolled the stone away [from the entrance so that everyone could see that the tomb was empty]. Then he sat on the stone.
Kabatana bashikako kwalenshika mukunkumo unene, pakwinga mungelo wa Lesa walafuma kwilu walakunkulushila pambali cilibwe cisa ne kwikalapo.
3 His appearance was [as bright] [SIM] as lightning, and his clothes were as white as snow.
Walikuboneketi lulabo kayi byakufwala byakendi byalikuba byatuba tuu!
4 The guards shook because they were very afraid. Then they became [completely motionless], as though they were dead.
Bamalonda basa balatina, kayi balatatika kututuma, balayuminina ntaa! eti bantu bafwa.
5 The angel said to the two women, “You should not be afraid! I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was {whom they} (nailed to a cross/crucified).
Nomba mungeloyo walabambila batukashi baseti, “Kamutatina sobwe! Ndicinshi mulalangaulunga Yesu usa ngobanga bapopa palusanda,
6 He is not here! [God] has (caused him to be alive again/raised him [from the dead]), just like [Jesus] told you [would happen!] Come and see the place where his body lay!
muliya muno sobwe lapundushiwa mbuli ncalikwamba. ‘Kamwisani mubone mpwanga wona.’
7 Then go quickly and tell his disciples, ‘He has risen from the dead! He will go ahead of you to Galilee [district]. You will see him there.’ [Pay attention to what] I have told you!”
Kamuyani bwangu mwenga mwambile beshikwiya bakendi kwambeti, ‘lapundushiwa kubafu,’ Kayi latangunu kendi kuya ku Galileya kopeloko nimwenga mubonane nendi, mwanukenga ibi mbyondamwambili.”
8 So the women left the tomb quickly. They were afraid, but they were [also] very joyful. They ran to tell us disciples [what had happened].
Batukashi basa balafumako bwangu kumanda, kabali ne buyowa, nomba kayi kabali bakondwa cikamba, balafwamba kuya kwambila beshikwiya bakendi.
9 Suddenly, [as they were running], Jesus appeared to them. He said, “Greetings!” The women came close to him. They knelt down and clasped his feet and worshipped him.
Mwakutengashila Yesu walakumana nabo ne kubambileti, “Mitende batukashi amwe!” Nabo balesa pepi, balasuntama ne kumwikata kumyendo yakendi ne kumukambilila.
10 Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid! Go and tell (all my disciples/all those who have been accompanying me) that they should go to Galilee. They will see me there.”
Yesu walabambileti, “Kamutatina, kamuyani mwambile banse bame benga ku Galileya. Nitubonane kopeloko.”
11 While the women were going, some of the soldiers who had been guarding [the tomb] went into the city. They reported to the chief priests everything that had happened.
Cindi ncobalikuya batukashi basa, bamalonda nabambi balashika ku Yelusalemu kuya kwambila beshimilumbo bamakulene bintu byonse byalenshika.
12 So the chief priests and Jewish elders met together. They made a plan [to explain why the tomb was empty]. They gave the soldiers a lot of money [as a bribe].
Lino beshimilumbo bamakulene basa, ne bamakulene Baciyuda, balabungana pamo kupana mano. Bamalonda basa balabapa mali angi,
13 They said, “Tell people, ‘His disciples came during the night and stole his [body] while we were sleeping.’
ne kubambileti, “Mwambengeti, beshikwiya bakendi besakwiba citumbi mashiku, afwe katuli tona tulo.”
14 If the governor hears [MTY] about this, we ourselves will make sure that he does not get angry [and punish you]. [So you will not have to worry].”
Na Mwendeleshi wamfulumende anyumfwe ibi, afwe nitumwikalike cali, paliya mulandu ngoshimupewe sobwe.
15 So the soldiers took the money and did as they were told {as [the chief priests and elders] told them}. And this story has been told {People have told this story} among the Jews to the very day [that I am writing] this.
balatambula mali bamalonda basa, kayi balensa mbuli ncobalabambila. Awa makani alayampuwo pakati pa Bayuda mpaka lelo.
16 [Later we] eleven [disciples] went to Galilee [district]. We went to the mountain where Jesus had told [us] to go.
Beshikwiya likumi ne umo balaya ku Galileya, kumulundu uko Yesu nkwalabambileti benga bakakumane nendi.
17 We saw him [there] and worshipped him. But some of [us] doubted [that it was really Jesus, and that he had become alive again].
Mpobalamubona, balamukambilila, nsombi nabambi balikutonshanya.
18 Then Jesus came [close] to [us] and said, “[My Father] has given me all authority over everything and everyone in heaven and on earth.
Yesu walesa pepi ne kubambileti, “Ngofu shonse shabwendeleshi kwilu ne pacishi capanshi shilapewa kulinjame.
19 So go, and [using my authority, teach my message to] people of all ethnic groups so that they may become my disciples. Baptize them [to be under the authority of] [MTY] my Father, and of me, his Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Anu lino kamuyani kubantu bamishobo yonse, mwenga mubeyishe babe beshikwiya bakame. Mukababatishenga mu lina lya Bata ne mu lina lya Mwana, kayi ne lya Mushimu Uswepa.
