Mathayo 10
1 Yesu nabhabhilikila abheigisibhwa bhae ekumi na bhabhili nabhayana obhutulo ingulu ya masabwa amachafu, okugagonya no kugabhilimya no kwiulisha bhuli mbaga jo bhunyoke na malwae ga bhuli mbaga.
He called to himself his twelve disciples, and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every sickness.
2 Amasina ga jintumwa ekumi nebhili niganu. Elyokwamba Simeoni (unu katogwa lindi Petero), na Andelea mumula wabho, Yakobo omwana wa Jebhedayo, na Yowana omumula wabbho:
Now the names of the twelve apostles are these. The first, Simon, who is called Peter; Andrew, his brother; James the son of Zebedee; John, his brother;
3 Philipo, na Balitolomayo, Thomaso, na Matayo omulipisha wo bhushulu, Yakobho omwana wa Alfayo, na Tadeo,
Philip; Bartholomew; Thomas; Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus; Lebbaeus, who was also called Thaddaeus;
4 Simoni mkananayo, na Yuda iskariote, unu amuliliye iniku.
Simon the Zealot; and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
5 Bhanu ekumi na bhabhili Yesu abhatumile. Omwene abhalagiliye naikati, “Mtaja kugenda any bhekae abhanyamaanga na mutaja kwingila mumisi ja bhasamalia.
Jesus sent these twelve out and commanded them, saying, “Don’t go amongst the Gentiles, and don’t enter into any city of the Samaritans.
6 Tali Mugende ku nyabhalega jinu jibhulile ejamunyumba ya Isilaeli.
Rather, go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
7 Nanu mulagendaga, mulashega mwaikati, obhukama bhwa mulwile bhwafogee.'
As you go, preach, saying, ‘The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!’
8 Mwiulishega abhalwae, musulule abhafuye, muhoshe abhebhigenge na mubhilimyega amasambwa. Mulamiye bhusa, musoshe bhusa.
Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, and cast out demons. Freely you received, so freely give.
9 Mutaja kugega jijahabhu, jialumasi nolo shaba mumifuko jemwe.
Don’t take any gold, silver, or brass in your money belts.
10 Mutaja kugega mufuko mulugendo lwemwe, nolo myenda jindi, ebhilato nolo nsimbo, kulwokubha omukosi jimwiile ebhilyo bhyae.
Take no bag for your journey, neither two coats, nor sandals, nor staff: for the labourer is worthy of his food.
11 Mumusi gwona gwona nolo chijiji chinu mulajamo, muyenje unu engene mwiyanje ewae kukinga anu mulenda osubhayo.
Into whatever city or village you enter, find out who in it is worthy, and stay there until you go on.
12 Anu mulengila munyumba mukeshega, Ikabha inyumba iile, Omulembe gwemwe gusigale awo,
As you enter into the household, greet it.
13 tali inyumba ikabha iteile, omulembe gwemwe musokewo nagwo.
If the household is worthy, let your peace come on it, but if it isn’t worthy, let your peace return to you.
14 Na bhanu bhalisiga okubhalamila emwe nokulema okutegelesha emisango jemwe, omwanya gunu omwimuka munyumba nolo mumusi ogwo, mwikukumule oluteli kubhigele bhyemwe ao.
Whoever doesn’t receive you or hear your words, as you go out of that house or that city, shake the dust off your feet.
15 Echimali enibhabhwila ati, ejibha jili ja nsonga okukila emisi ja Sodoma na Gomola olusiku lwa indamu kukila omusi ogwo
Most certainly I tell you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgement than for that city.
16 Mwangalile, enibhatuma kuti nyabhalega agati ye misege je mwila, kulwejo mubhe bhengeso lwa injoka na bhafula lwa inguti.
“Behold, I send you out as sheep amongst wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.
17 Mubhe bhengeso na bhanu, bhalibhasila mumabhalaja, na bhali bhabhuma mumasomelo.
But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils, and in their synagogues they will scourge you.
18 Na muliletwa imbele ya bhakulu na bhakama kulwa lisina lyani, kuti bhubhambasi kubhene na kubhanu bha bhanyamahanga.
Yes, and you will be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the nations.
19 Omwanya gunu bhalabhabheelesha, mutaja kwitimata nikutiki amwi nichinuki chinu mulaloma, kulwokubha echinu chokuloma omuyanwa kumwanya ogwo.
But when they deliver you up, don’t be anxious how or what you will say, for it will be given you in that hour what you will say.
20 Kulwokubha atali emwe bhanu mulaloma, tali Omwoyo gwa Rata wemwe kaloma munda yemwe.
For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.
21 Omuili alimukila omuili wae okumwita, na lata kumwana wae. Abhana bhalimukila abhebhusi bhebhwe, nibhabhakolela olufu.
“Brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child. Children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.
22 Nemwe mulibhiililwa na bhuli munu ingulu ya lisina lyani. Nawe unu alikomesha okukingila obhutelo omunu oyo alichunguka.
You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake, but he who endures to the end will be saved.
23 Omwanya gunu bhalibha Anna mumusi gunu, mubhilimile mumusi gunu ogulubha, echimali enibhabhwila ati, mtakubha mugendele mumisi jona eja Isilaeli achali kusubha Omwana wa Adamu.
But when they persecute you in this city, flee into the next, for most certainly I tell you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel until the Son of Man has come.
24 Omwiigisibhwa atali mukulu okukila omwiigisha wae, nolo omugaya unu ali ingulu yesebhugenyi wae.
“A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his lord.
25 Jiile omwiigisibhwa abhe kutyo ali omwiigisha wae, no mukosi lwe Sebhugenyi wae. Ikabha bhamubhilikiye Ratabhugenyi wa inyumba Belzabuli, ni kwandengoki abhamugaya omwene na inyumba yae!
It is enough for the disciple that he be like his teacher, and the servant like his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more those of his household!
26 Kulwejo mutaja kubhobhaya abho, kulwokubha litalio misango gunu gutalisululwa, nalitali linu liselekele linu litalibhulika.
Therefore don’t be afraid of them, for there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known.
27 Chinu echibhabhwila muchisute, muchaike mubhwelu, na chinu mulongwa na matwi gemwe, muchilashe ingulu ya inyumba.
What I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear whispered in the ear, proclaim on the housetops.
28 Mutobhaya bhanu abheta omubhili nawe bhatana bhutulo bhwa kwita mwoyo. Mubhae unu katulao okusingalisha omubhili no mwoyo eliya nyombe. (Geenna g1067)
Don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. Rather, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
29 Enibhusha, kasuku ebhili bhatakugusibhwa kwa chapa ntilu? Nolo kutyo atalio unu katula okugwa ansi tali Ratabhugenyi wemwe kumenya.
“Aren’t two sparrows sold for an assarion coin? Not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will.
30 Nawe nolo obhukumi bhwa jimfwili jemwe jibhalilwe.
But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
31 Mutaja kubha na bhubha, kulwokubha muna echibhalo okukila jikasuku nyamfu.
Therefore don’t be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.
32 Kulwejo bhuli munu unu akanyikilisha imbele ya bhanu, anyona nilimwikilisha imbele ya Rata wani unu ali mulwile.
Everyone therefore who confesses me before men, I will also confess him before my Father who is in heaven.
33 Nawe unu alinyigana imbele ya bhanu, anyona nilimwigana imbele ya Rata wani unu ali mulwile.
But whoever denies me before men, I will also deny him before my Father who is in heaven.
34 Mutetogelati nijile kuleta omulembe muchalo. Nitejile kuleta mulembe, tali obhulemo.
“Don’t think that I came to send peace on the earth. I didn’t come to send peace, but a sword.
35 Kulwokubha nijile okuta omunu alwane ne semwene, no muyala na nyilamwene, no mukwelima na nyabhuko wae,
For I came to set a man at odds against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
36 Omusoko wo munu bhalibha abhanu bhaikewae.
A man’s foes will be those of his own household.
37 Omwene unu kenda esemwene amwi nyila mwene okukila anye oyo atanyingene. Na unu kenda omusigaji au omuyala wae okukila anye oyo atanyingene.
He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me isn’t worthy of me.
38 Omwene unu ataligega omusalabha no kundubha any atanyingene.
He who doesn’t take his cross and follow after me isn’t worthy of me.
39 Omwene unu alyenda okuyenja obhulame alibhubhusha. Nawe unu alibhusha obhulame ingulu yani alibhubhona.
He who seeks his life will lose it; and he who loses his life for my sake will find it.
40 Omwene unu alibhakuma kabha akumile anye, na unu alabhaankumile any kabha amukumile unu antumile anye.
“He who receives you receives me, and he who receives me receives him who sent me.
41 Na unu alamukuma omulagi kulwokubha ni mulagi alibhona omuyelo gwo mulagi. Na unu alimukuma omunu omulengelesi kulwokubha ni mulengelesi alibhona omuyelo gwo munu omulengelesi.
He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward. He who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man will receive a righteous man’s reward.
42 Wona wona unu alamuyana oumwi wa bhalela bhanu, nolo chikombe chimwi cha manji go kunywa amanyiliye, kulwokubha omwene Ni mwiigisibhwa, echimali enibhabhwila ati, omwene atakubhulwa kwa njila yona yona omuyelo gwae.”
Whoever gives one of these little ones just a cup of cold water to drink in the name of a disciple, most certainly I tell you, he will in no way lose his reward.”
