< Mathayo 20 >

1 Kulwokubha obhukama bhwa mulwire obhususana na unu ali na lisambu, unu emukile mulugulu koleleki atulemo abhakosi bhemilimu mwisambu lyaye elye mijabhibhu.
For the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard.
2 Ejile ekilishanya nabho omuyelo gwa idinari imwi kulunaku, nabhatuma okugenda mwisambu lyaye elye mijabhibhu.
And when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent them into his vineyard.
3 Gejile gatulao kuti masaa gasatu nasubhayo nalola abhakosi bhandi bhemeleguyu bhatamilimu mwiyeneo lya lisoko.
And he went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace,
4 Nabhabhwila ati, 'Emwe ona, mugende mwisambu elye mijabhibhu, chona chona chinu chili mugabho gweme enibhayana.' Kulwejo nibhagenda okukola emilimu.
And said unto them; Go all of you also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is right I will give you. And they went their way.
5 Gejile gatulao masaa mukaga nagenda lindi, musaa ya mwenda ona nakola kutyo.
Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour, and did likewise.
6 Akatungu akandi nagenda musaa ekumi na imwi, nasanga abhanu bhandi bhemeleguyu bhatali na mulimu. Kubhaki mwimeleguyu anu lunaku lwona mutali na mulimu gwona gwona?
And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle, and says unto them, Why stand all of you here all the day idle?
7 Nibhamusubhya ati, Kulwokubha atalio munu unu achianile emilimu. Nabhabhwila ati, 'Emwe ona mugende mwisambu lye mijabhibhu.'
They say unto him, Because no man has hired us. He says unto them, Go all of you also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right, that shall all of you receive.
8 Kegolo yejile yakinga, Kanye sambu lye mijabhibhu abhwiliye omunyampala waye, 'Bhabhilikile ubhayane omuyelo gwebhe, wambe nabhanu bhasingiliye umalishe na bhanu bhelabhile.'
So when even was come, the lord of the vineyard says unto his steward, Call the labourers, and give them their hire, beginning from the last unto the first.
9 Bhejile bhaja bhanu bhayabhilwe emilimu saa ekumi na imwi, bhuli munu alamiye idinari.
And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny.
10 Bhejile bhaja abhakosi abhokwamba, nibhetogela ati abhalamila okukila abhandi, nawe ona bhalamiye dinari imwi imwii kubhuli munu.
But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more; and they likewise received every man a penny.
11 Bhejile bhalamila emiyelo jebhwe, nibhalundumila kanya esambu.
And when they had received it, they murmured against the goodman of the house,
12 Nibhaika ati, 'Abhakosi abhakegolo bhanu bhagega lisaa limwi lyenyele kumilimu, nawe wabhenganya neswe, eswe chetwika omujigo lunaku lwona no kwochibhwa na lisana.'
Saying, These last have wrought but one hour, and you have made them equal unto us, which have borne the burden and heat of the day.
13 Nawe kanya esambu asubhishe nabhwila umwi umwi ati, 'Musani wani, nitakola musango mubhibhi. Chitekilishanya kwa idinari imwi?
But he answered one of them, and said, Friend, I do you no wrong: did not you agree with me for a penny?
14 Nulamile omuyelo gwao gunu gukwingene ugende jao. Ni bhukondelwa bhwani okuliya abhakosi bhanu bhasingilila bhenganiliye nawe.
Take that your is, and go your way: I will give unto this last, even as unto you.
15 Enibhusha! Nitali na bhulamusi okukola kutyo enenda kumali jani? Amo eliso lyao lino lwango kulwokubha anye ndi wekisi?
Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is your eye evil, because I am good?
16 Kulwejo oyo kasingilila alibha wokwamba no wo kwamba alibha wo kusingilila.”
So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen.
17 Mbe Yesu aliga nalinya okuja Yeruslemu. Achali munjila, nagega abheigisibhwa bhaye ekumi na bhabhili nabhasubhya kumbali nabhabhwila ati,
And Jesus going up to Jerusalem took the twelve disciples apart in the way, and said unto them,
18 “Mbe mulole echigenda Yerusalemu, no Omwana wa Adamu kagwatibhwa na bhakulu bha bhagabisi na abhandiki. Abhamulamula okufwa
Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be betrayed unto the chief priests and unto the scribes, and they shall condemn him to death,
19 na abhamuta mubhanyamaanga koleleki bhamusegule, bhamuchape no kumubhamba. Nawe kulunaku olwakasatu kasuluka.”
And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify him: and the third day he shall rise again.
20 Okumala nyilamwene abhana bha Zebhedayo ejile ku Yesu ali na bhana bhaye. Abhumile ebhiju imbele yaye no kumusabha echinu okusoka kumwene.
Then came to him the mother of Zebedees children with her sons, worshipping him, and desiring a certain thing of him.
21 Yesu namubhwila ati, “Owenda chinuki?” Namubhwila ati, “Nulagilile kutya, abhana bhani bhanu kubhubhili bhwebhwe oumwi eyanje mukubhoko kwao okwobhulyo oundi mukubhoko kwao okwobhumosi mu bhukama bhwa.”
And he said unto her, What will you? She says unto him, Grant that these my two sons may sit, the one on your right hand, and the other on the left, in your kingdom.
22 Nawe Yesu namusubhya naika ati, “Utakumenya chinu ousabhwa. Enikubhusha! Outula okunywela echikombe echo ndinywela?” Nibhamubhwila ati, “Echitula.”
But Jesus answered and said, All of you know not what all of you ask. Are all of you able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? They say unto him, We are able.
23 Nabhabhwila ati, “Echikombe chani chimali omuchinywela, nawe okwiyanja mukubhoko kwani okwobhulwo na mukubhoko kwani okwo bhumosi gutali mulimo gwani okubhayana, nawe nikwabho bhanu bhamalile okwilabhilwa na Lata wani.”
And he says unto them, All of you shall drink indeed of my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of my Father.
24 Abheigisibhwa abhandi ekumi bhejile bhongwa kutyo, nibhasulumbasibhwa muno na bhejabho bhaliya abhabhili.
And when the ten heard it, they were moved with indignation against the two brethren.
25 Nawe Yesu nabhabhilikila omwenikili nabhabhwila ati, “Mumenyele ati abhakama bha bhanya maanga abhabhobhaisha, na abhakulu bhebhwe abhakola amanaga ingulu yebhwe.
But Jesus called them unto him, and said, All of you know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them.
26 Nawe emwe mwasiga okukola kutyo.
But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister;
27 Nawe, wona wona unu alyenda obhukulu agati yemwe ni bhusi bhusi bhe mugaya wemwe.
And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant:
28 Lwakutyo Omwana wa Adamu atejile okukolelwa, tali okufulubhenda, nokusosha obhulame bhwaye abhe mwelusi wa bhafu.”
Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
29 Bhejile bhasoka Yeriko, abhanu bhafu nibhamulubha.
And as they departed from Jericho, a great multitude followed him.
30 Na nibhalola abhaume bhabhili bheyanjile kungego ya injila. Bhejile bhongwa ati Yesu katulao, Ni bhasosha obhulaka bhulela nibhaika ati, “Lata Bugenyi, Omwana wa Daudi, nuchifwile chigongo.”
And, behold, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that Jesus passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, you son of David.
31 Nawe liijo lya bhanu nilibhagonya, nilibhabhwila bhajibhile, Nawe ona, abhenene nibhasubha lindi okuyogana nibhaika ati, “Lata Bugenyi, Omwana wa Daudi, nuchifwile chigongo.”
And the multitude rebuked them, because they should hold their peace: but they cried the more, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, you son of David.
32 Nio Yesu nemelegulu nabhabhilikila nokubhabhusha ati, “Omwenda nibhakoleleki?”
And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What will all of you that I shall do unto you?
33 Nibhamubhwila ati, “Lata Bugenyi, ameso geswe gegulwe.”
They say unto him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.
34 Mbe Yesu nabha agegelwe nechigongo nakushako ameso gebhwe, akachwina ako, nibhalamila obhutulo bhwokulola nanibhamulubha.
So Jesus had compassion on them, and touched their eyes: and immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed him.
