Luka 20
1 kubezi zuba lyonke, linu Jesu abali kuluta ni kuwamba ku bantu mwi ntepele naluta Izwi, mukulwana wa mapulisita ni bamwi ba kulwana baba kezi kwali nibamwi
And it came to pass, [that] on one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes came upon [him], with the elders,
2 Baba wambi, chibati kwali, “utu wa mbile ma tanzi au kwete ku chita ezi zintu? Njeni uzo aba kuhi mata?”
And spoke to him, saying, Tell us, By what authority doest thou these things? or who is he that gave thee this authority?
3 Che taba nati kubali, “Name muni mibuze ipuzo. Muni wa mbile
And he answered and said to them, I will also ask you one thing; and answer me:
4 che nkolobezo ya Joani. Iba kuzwa kwiulu kapa ku muntu?”
The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men?
5 Baba lielezi abobene, chibacho, “Chi twati, 'Izwa kwi ulu,' mwa wambe, 'chinzi ha musa zumini kwali?'
And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why then believed ye him not?
6 Linu chi twati, 'izwa ku muntu,' bonse bantu kaba tuñate, abo baba susu wezwa kuti Joani abali mupolofita,”
But if we say, From men; all the people will stone us: for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.
7 Linu chi betaba kuti kabezi kuzi ka zwa.
And they answered, that they could not tell whence [it was].
8 Jesu chati ku bali, “kese nimi wa mbile Inguzu zini chita izi zintu.”
And Jesus said to them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
9 Cha wambila bantu Inguli, “Muntu cha biala nzi chelantu zakwe muluwa, muntu aba kalimise luwa kuba viali bo muomba, ni kuya kwi nkanda Inako Inde.
Then he began to speak to the people this parable; A certain man planted a vineyard, and let it to husbandmen, and went into a far country for a long time.
10 Chi yasike nako chi kutuma bahikana kubabiali ba muwomba, muhe nzimwi nzi chelantu zizwa muluwa lo muwomba. Baba kutokomela luwa lo muomba baba mukabi, niku musiya mayanza-yanza.
And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat him, and sent [him] away empty.
11 Hape cha tuma zumwi muhikana naye baba mukabi, ni kumu nyandisa cha chituhu, niku mutumina naye mayanza-yanza.
And again he sent another servant: and they beat him also, and treated [him] shamefully, and sent [him] away empty.
12 Chiba tuma zumwi wa butatu naye baba mukavi kumu nongola nzilabi kwali, niku musohela hanze.
And again he sent the third: and they wounded him also, and cast [him] out.
13 Linu Simwine wa luwa lomuomba chati, 'Muni chite bule?' Muni tume mwa nangu unisuna. Mwe ndi mubamuhe Ikute.'
Then said the lord of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be when they see him they will reverence him.
14 Kono ba byali ba muomba chiba mubona, chiba wamba mukati kabo, chi ba cho, Uzu nji yena swana. Tumwi haye, tuhinde chi fumu chibe chetu.'
But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.
15 Chi ba musohela kunze wo luwa lomuomba, ni kumwi haya. Mihe simwine wa luwa lomuomba mwati nzi kubali?
So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed [him]. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
16 Kakeze ni kwiza kushinya ba byali boluwa lya muwomba, mwahe luwa lomu womba ku bamwi.” Mi ha ba zuwa, chiba cho, “Ireeza ukanisa!”
He will come and destroy these husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others. And when they heard [it], they said, may that never be.
17 Jesu cha lola kubali, nacho, “Iñolo litalusa nzi? 'Ivwe liba sohiwa bazaki, liba bikwa musumo wo mwinkona'?
And he beheld them, and said, What is this then that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?
18 Nzonse zibawi kweline vwe nziba kosoki hakati. Yense ase awile vwe, muli sinyehe.”
Whoever shall fall upon that stone, shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
19 Bañoli niba kulwana bama pulisita baba kusuna kubika mayaza abo cheyo nako, babe zibite kuti inguli ya wamba i baku keza kubali. Linu baba ku tiya chi kwata cha bantu.
And the chief priests and the scribes the same hour sought to lay hands on him; and they feared the people: for they perceived that he had spoken this parable against them.
20 Baba ku mulolete che ntokomelo, baba tumini bantu ba matwela baba lihele kuti abo ba lukite, kuti baka wane muladu mu nzi wambo zakwe, bamu twale kwa bana ba yendisi ni kuba kulwana be chisi.
And they watched [him], and sent forth spies, who should feign themselves just men, that they might take hold of his words, that so they might deliver him to the power and authority of the governor.
21 Chi bamu buza, nacho, “Muluti, twizi kuti uba wambi ni kuluta nzilukite, mikana Insusuwezo ye chitulo cha zumwi, kono ubakuluta buniti bwe nzila ye Ireeza.
And they asked him, saying, Master, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly, neither acceptest thou the person [of any], but teachest the way of God truly:
22 Kana Iswanelo kwetu kuliha mutelo kwa Sesare, kapa bule?”
Is it lawful for us to give tribute to Cesar, or not?
23 Kono Jesu cha zuwi sisa mizezo yabo, chati kubali,
But he perceived their craftiness, and said to them, Why tempt ye me?
24 “Muni tondeze ma sheleñi. Chi fateho chani chi na hateni?” Chi bacho, 'Sesare.”
Show me a penny. Whose image and superscription hath it? They answered and said, Cesar's.
25 Chati kubali, “Muhe Sasere zintu za Sasere, ni kwe Ireeza, zintu zakwe Reeza.”
And he said to them, Render therefore to Cesar the things which are Cesar's, and to God the things which are God's.
26 Kana baba kwizi za kumu kananisa ha ba ku kwete ku wamba hakati habusu bwa bantu. Baba zimene niba ñuñuna kana baba kwina cho kwi taba.
And they could not take hold of his words before the people: and they marveled at his answer, and held their peace.
27 Bu ngi bwa Masadduse chi ba keza kwali, yeke ya ba ku wamba kuti ka kwina kubuka kubafu,
Then came to [him] certain of the Sadducees (who deny that there is any resurrection) and they asked him,
28 chi ba mu buza, chi bati, “Muluti, Mushe aba tuñoleli kuti haiba mukulwe wa mukwame nafwa, nena mwanakazi, mi nasa kwete bana, mukwame uwola kuhinda mwanakazi wamukulwa kwe, niku wanina mukulwe bana.
Saying, Master, Moses wrote to us, If any man's brother should die, having a wife, and he should die without children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.
29 Kuba kwina bana ba bakwame ba tenda iyanza ni bobele, wetanzi aba hindi mwanakazi, aba fwi na sena mwana,
There were therefore seven brothers: and the first took a wife, and died without children.
30 niwa bubeli naye.
And the second took her for a wife, and he died childless.
31 Wa butatu cha muhinda, ubu nja bana be yaza ni bobeli ba bafwi, ka bena bana.
And the third took her; and in like manner the seven also: And they left no children, and died.
32 Ha ku hinta inako mwanakazi naye chafwa.
Last of all the woman died also.
33 Mwinako yokubuswa, mwabe mwanakazi wani? Kakuti iyaza nibo bele bakwete iye kuti nji mwanakazi wabo.”
Therefore in the resurrection, whose wife of them is she? for seven had her to wife.
And Jesus answering, said to them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage: (aiōn g165)
35 Cwale aho njeni njete ahewe chifumu. abo bahindwa ku baba kutekwa mwinako yoku amuhelwa kuba ntu bafwile kuzwa kubafu. (aiōn g165)
But they who shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
36 Mikese ba olele kuzwilila kufwa. mukuti ba likanelele ni mangeloi ni bana ba Ireeza, bababi bana ba ba buswa.
Neither can they die any more: for they are equal to the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.
37 Kuti babafwi baba buswa, naye Mushe aba ntondezwa, kuamana ni chi humbu, kwa ba kusumpa Simwine Ireeza wa Abrahama ni Ireeza wa Isaka ni Ireeza wa Jakobo.
Now that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the bush, when he calleth the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
38 Hanu kanji Ireeza wa bafu, kono Ireeza yohala, Linu bonse bahalila kwali.”
For he is not a God of the dead, but of the living: for all live to him.
39 Bamwi ba masika babe tabi, “Muluti, wetaba nenza,
Then certain of the scribes answering, said, Master, thou hast well said.
40 “Kana baba bozekezi kubuza nzimwi mpuzo.
And after that, they durst not ask him any question at all.
41 Jesu chati kubali, “Chizi ha ba wamba kuti Jesu mwana wa Davida?
And he said to them, How say they that Christ is David's son?
42 Mukuti Davida iye mwine aba wambi mwi mbuka ya Lisamu, Simwine aba wambi kwa Simwine wa ngu, 'Wikale kubulyo bwe yanza lyangu,
And David himself saith in the book of Psalms, The LORD said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
43 konji chi napanga zila zako kuba mayendelo ako.'
Till I make thy enemies thy footstool.
44 Davida cha sumpa Jesu, simwine,' linu aho njeni mwana Davida?'
David therefore calleth him Lord, how is he then his son?
45 Mu kuhoza bantu bonse cha wamba kuba lutwana bakwe,”
Then in the audience of all the people, he said to his disciples,
46 Muzwe kubantu, bena mizezo yoku yenda munzila isalukite, abo basaka ahulu intumeliso zamanzimo muchibaka cha maunzikizo, mi simwine wikala muma sinangonge, zibaka zasimwine zemikiti.
Beware of the scribes, who desire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts;
47 Bamana mazubo abanakazi ba fwililwe, nibaba lapelela intapelo inde. Abo kabahewe chikuto chikando.
Who devour widows' houses, and for a show make long prayers: the same shall receive greater damnation.
