Matthew 19
1 When Jesus had finished these words, he departed from Galilee and came into the borders of Judea beyond the Jordan.
Che Yesu paŵamasile kuŵecheta gele maloŵe go, ŵatyosile ku Galilaya, ŵapite ku Yudea peesi lusulo lwa Yolodani.
2 Great multitudes followed him, and he healed them there.
Ŵandu achajinji ŵakuiye ŵelewo kweleko, nombejo ŵalamisye ilwele yao.
3 Pharisees came to him, testing him and saying, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any reason?”
Mafalisayo ŵaichile achalingaga achitiji, “Uli, ana ikusachilwa mundu kunleka ŵankwakwe kwa ligongo lililyose?”
4 He answered, “Haven’t you read that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female,
Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Uli, ana nganinsyoma Mmalembelo ga Akunnungu kuti Akunnungu juŵangumbile mundu kutyochela kundanda ŵaagumbile jwannume ni jwankongwe?
5 and said, ‘For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall be joined to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh’?
Ŵapundile kusala, ‘Kwaligongo lyo jwannume chiŵaaleche atatigwe ni achikulugwe, chalumbikane ni ŵankwakwe, nombe ŵaŵili wo chachiŵa chiilu chimo?’
6 So that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, don’t let man tear apart.”
Kwa yeleyo, ngaaŵa sooni ŵaŵili, nambo chiilu chimo. Nipele chalumbikenye Akunnungu, mundu akachilekanganya.”
7 They asked him, “Why then did Moses command us to give her a certificate of divorce and divorce her?”
Nambo ŵele ŵanyawo ŵausisye, “Nambi kwachichi che Musa ŵatulamwile kuti jwankongwe apegwe talaka ni kunleka?”
8 He said to them, “Moses, because of the hardness of your hearts, allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it has not been so.
Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Che Musa ŵannechelele nlekangane ni achiŵankwenu kwa ligongo lya kukakatima kwa mitima jenu. Nambo chitandile kundanda nginiŵa yeleyi.
9 I tell you that whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery; and he who marries her when she is divorced commits adultery.”
Nipele none ngunsalila ŵanyamwe, mundu juchalekangane ni ŵankwakwe kwaligongo lililyose ni kulombela jwankongwe jwine, ikaŵe kwa ligongo lya chikululu, akutenda chikululu.”
10 His disciples said to him, “If this is the case of the man with his wife, it is not expedient to marry.”
Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaasalile, “Iŵaga yele kwa mundu ni ŵankwakwe, nipele mmbaya kutama pangalombela.”
11 But he said to them, “Not all men can receive this saying, but those to whom it is given.
Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Ngaŵa ŵanawose ŵakukombola kulipochela liloŵe li, nambo ikaŵe ŵele ŵandu ŵapegwile ni Akunnungu machili ga kulipochela liloŵe li.
12 For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother’s womb, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs who made themselves eunuchs for the Kingdom of Heaven’s sake. He who is able to receive it, let him receive it.”
Pakuŵa kwana indu yakupisyangana yaikuntendekasya mundu kutama pangalombela, apali ŵaŵaŵelekwe yeleyo, ni ŵane atesilwe ni ŵandu atame ŵangalombela ni ŵane asachile achinsyene atame pangalombela kwaligongo lya umwenye wa kwinani. Jwakukombola kulipochela liloŵe li apochele.”
13 Then little children were brought to him that he should lay his hands on them and pray; and the disciples rebuked them.
Nipele ŵannyichisye Che Yesu ŵanache achanandi kuti ŵasajichile makono ni kwapopelela. Nambo ŵakulijiganya ŵao ni ŵakalipile.
14 But Jesus said, “Allow the little children, and don’t forbid them to come to me; for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to ones like these.”
Che Yesu ŵatite, “Mwaleche ŵanache aichanje kukwangu ni nkaasiŵila, pakuŵa Umwenye wa kwinani uli wa ŵandu ŵaali mpela ŵanache ŵa.”
15 He laid his hands on them, and departed from there.
Nipele, ŵasajichile makono kuti ŵape upile, ni ŵatyosile pelepo.
16 Behold, one came to him and said, “Good teacher, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
Mundu jumo ŵaichile Che Yesu ŵausisye, “Jwakwiganya, ana ndende chindu chi chichili chambone kuti ngapate umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi?” (aiōnios g166)
17 He said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good but one, that is, God. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments.”
Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Kwachichi nkuusya yankati umbone? Ngapagwa jwambone, nambo jumope yaani Akunnungu. Mwasakaga kwinjila mu umi, ngakamulichisye makanyo.”
18 He said to him, “Which ones?” Jesus said, “‘You shall not murder.’ ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ ‘You shall not steal.’ ‘You shall not offer false testimony.’
Mundu jula ŵausisye, “Makanyo chi?” Che Yesu ŵatite, “Kasimmulaga ni Kasintenda chikululu ni Kasinjiŵa ni Kasinsala ya unami.
19 ‘Honor your father and your mother.’ And, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’”
Sooni, mwachimbichisye atati ŵenu ni achikulu ŵenu ni Munnonyele njenu mpela inkuti pakulinonyela mwasyene.”
20 The young man said to him, “All these things I have observed from my youth. What do I still lack?”
Jwanchanda jula ŵatite, “Makanyo ganagose nagakamulisye chitandile wanache wangu, chisoŵile chindu chi sooni?”
21 Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.”
Che Yesu ŵansalile jwelejo, “Mwasakaga kuŵa jwautindimisyo, njaule nkasumisye yose inkwete ni mbiya syo nkaape ŵandu ŵakulaga, nomwe chinkole mbiko kwinani, mwamalaga muunguye.”
22 But when the young man heard this, he went away sad, for he was one who had great possessions.
Paŵapilikene yele jwele nchanda jo, ŵajawile aninkusongoneka mu ntima, pakuŵa ŵakwete chipanje chachijinji.
23 Jesus said to his disciples, “Most certainly I say to you, a rich man will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven with difficulty.
Pelepo Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao, “Ngunsalila isyene, chiiŵe yakulimba jwachipanje kwinjila mu Umwenye wa kwinani.
24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through a needle’s eye than for a rich man to enter into God’s Kingdom.”
Ngunsalila sooni, ili yakwaluka kwa chinyama chachikuŵilanjikwa ngamia kupeleta pachipowo cha sindano, kupunda jwachipanje kwinjila mu umwenye wa Akunnungu.”
25 When the disciples heard it, they were exceedingly astonished, saying, “Who then can be saved?”
Ŵakulijiganya ŵao paŵapilikene yele, ŵasimosile nnope, ŵausisye, “Ŵaani nambi, akukombola kukulupuka?”
26 Looking at them, Jesus said, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
Che Yesu ŵalolite, nikuti, “Lyeleli lili lyangakomboleka kwa ŵandu, nambo kwa Akunnungu indu yose ikukomboleka.”
27 Then Peter answered, “Behold, we have left everything and followed you. What then will we have?”
Nipele, che Petulo ŵajanjile, “Nnole, uwe tulesile yose ni kunkuya, chitupate chichi nambi?”
28 Jesus said to them, “Most certainly I tell you that you who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of Man will sit on the throne of his glory, you also will sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Ngunsalila isyene, Mwana jwa Mundu pachatame pa chitengu cha umwenye cha ukulu wao mu chilambo cha sambano, ŵanyamwe umunguiye chintame mu itengu kumi na mbili ni kusilamula ngosyo kumi na mbili sya ŵandu ŵa ku Isilaeli.
29 Everyone who has left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name’s sake, will receive one hundred times, and will inherit eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Ni jwalijose jwalesile nyuumba pane achapwakwe pane achalumbugwe pane atatigwe pane achikulugwe pane ŵanache pane migunda, kwa ligongo lyangu, chachipochela mala mia, ni chachinjila mu umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (aiōnios g166)
30 But many will be last who are first, and first who are last.
Nambo ŵajinji ŵaali ŵandanda sambano chachiŵa ŵambesi ni ŵaali ŵambesi sambano chachiŵa ŵandanda.
