< Matthew 11 >

1 When Jesus had finished directing his twelve disciples, he departed from there to teach and preach in their cities.
Yabha baada ya Yesu amale hubhaelekezye abhanafunzi bhakwe kumi na bhabhele asogoye hu plae abhale amanyizye na lombelele katika ikhaya zyawo,
2 Now when John heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples
nu Yohana lwali mwigereza lwahevwezye lwalihumwanya yimbombo zya Klisiti, atumile uwujumbe abhilile abhanafunzi bhakwe,
3 and said to him, “Are you he who comes, or should we look for another?”
na bhamozelezya, “Awe yoyola wawhenza au huliuwamwawo tiwhanziwa humwenyelezye?”
4 Jesus answered them, “Go and tell John the things which you hear and see:
U Yesu ajibu na yanje humwawo “Bhaji mumozye u Yohana gala gamuhugalola na gala gamuhugevwa.
5 the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.
Abhantu bhasabhalola, bhapata alole, iviwete bhajenda, abhakoma bhatakasiha, abhantu bhasaga bhawhevwa bhahevwa tena, abhantu bhabhafwiye bhazyoswa apate uwomi, na abhantu bhabhanza bhalombelewa ihabari inyinza.
6 Blessed is he who finds no occasion for stumbling in me.”
Na asayiwilwe ola wasagalola amashaka juu yane.
7 As these went their way, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John, “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
Humuda abhantu ebha lwabhasogola, u Yesu ahandile ayanje ni mpoga juu ya Yohana, “Mwabhulile awhenye iyenu whijangwa itete liyinzanywa ninkongu?
8 But what did you go out to see? A man in soft clothing? Behold, those who wear soft clothing are in kings’ houses.
Ila yenu mwabhalile awhenye umuntu wakwete amenda amalayini? Lyoli, bhala bhabhakwata amenda amalaini bhakhala munyumba zishimwene.
9 But why did you go out? To see a prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.
Ila mwasogoye alole iyenu- Ukuwe? Ee, ihumbwawozya ni zaidi ya Kuwe.
10 For this is he, of whom it is written, ‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.’
Ono yuyo wasimbiwilwe, 'Enya, ihutuma ujumbe wane whilongolela yimaso gakwe, wayi andaa idala iyaho whilongolela lyaho.
11 Most certainly I tell you, among those who are born of women there has not arisen anyone greater than John the Baptizer; yet he who is least in the Kingdom of Heaven is greater than he.
Ane ihumbawozya ilyoli, kati ya bhapapwilwe na bhashe nomo waligosi kuliko u Yohana umozyaji. Ila walidodo katika umwene wa humwanya gosi ashile umwene.
12 From the days of John the Baptizer until now, the Kingdom of Heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.
Afume insiku zya Yohana umozyaji hadi isalezi, umwene wa humwanya wuli wengovo, na bhantu bhabhali bhengovo, bhahuwega hongovo.
13 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.
Afwatanaje akuwe ni ndajizyo, bhakuwilwe hadi wha Yohana.
14 If you are willing to receive it, this is Elijah, who is to come.
Na nkesho mulitayari awheteshe, ono yu Eliya, ola wawhenza.
15 He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
Wali na makutu gawhevwe nayevwaje.
16 “But to what shall I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces, who call to their companions
Endanganisye ni yenu ishi papo eshi? Shi fano shabhana bhabhawhanga mumaeneo gisoko, bhabhakhala na kwizanye
17 and say, ‘We played the flute for you, and you didn’t dance. We mourned for you, and you didn’t lament.’
na yanje, 'Tabhakhomeye izomari na sagamwahanjile. Talilile na sagamwakholile.'
18 For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.’
Afwataje u Yohana ahenzele bila alye amabumunda au amwele ihombwa, na bhabha bhayanga, 'Ali ni pepo.'
19 The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Behold, a gluttonous man and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ But wisdom is justified by her children.”
Umwana wa Adamu ahenzele alya na mwele na bhayanga 'Enya, muntu unylavi na ukholwe, rafiki wa sonkola uwushuru na bhimbibhi!' Ila injele iloleha humbombo zyakwe.”
20 Then he began to denounce the cities in which most of his mighty works had been done, because they didn’t repent.
U Yesu ahandile huyikhalipile ikhaya ambamo baadhi yimbombo zyakwe zimayele zyatendebhe, afwatanaje bhuli sagabhutubule,
21 “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
Ahele waho, Kolazini, Ole waho Bethsaida! Nkesho imbombo ingosi gngwawombeshe hu Tiro na Husidoni gala gagawombeshe epa, andi bhatubule hale whakwate amagunila na hujipashe amalota.
22 But I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment than for you.
Ila yayibha ujivwi hu Tiro ni Sidoni isiku lilongwi kuliko hulliwe.
23 You, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, you will go down to Hades. For if the mighty works had been done in Sodom which were done in you, it would have remained until today. (Hadēs g86)
Aise, Kapernaum, ubheshele wayiwosewa hadi humwanya? Ndadi wayiwhiswa hadi pansi whilongo. Hansi hu Sodoma hungawombeshe matendo amagosi, hansi gagawombeshe huliwe andiileho hadi ilelo. (Hadēs g86)
24 But I tell you that it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom on the day of judgment, than for you.”
Eshi iyanga huliwe aje yayibha vyepesi honse yi Sodoma awhemelele whisiku lilongwi kuliko awe.
25 At that time, Jesus answered, “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you hid these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to infants.
Katika humuda ogo u Yesu ayanjile, “Ihutema awe, Baba, Gosi wahumwanya na panse, husababu wabhafisile amambo ega bhinjele vwelewa, na hugagubule whabhasaga bhali ni elimu, hansi abhana abhadodo.
26 Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight.
Baba afwatanaje yasongozewelwe esho pamaso gaho.
27 All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows the Son, except the Father; neither does anyone know the Father, except the Son and he to whom the Son desires to reveal him.
Amambo gonti impewilwe ane afume wha Baba. Na nomo wamenye u Baba ila umwana, na wowonti ambaye umwana ali ni hamu ya hugubulile.
28 “Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest.
Enzi huline, amwe mwenti mumuyemba na wuwonelwa na mazigo amamwamu, nane imbahubhatozye.
29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls.
Jiponyaji ijoko lyane na mumanyilaje afume huline, afwatanaje ane niwawhishe na mpole wimoyo na munza pate ulotoyo lwi nafsi zyenyu.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
Afwatanaje ijoko lyane lilayini na izigo lyane lipoposu.
