Matio 10
1 Tsinikao’ Iesoà i mpiama’e folo ro’amby rey naho nomea’e lily amo anga-draty iabio, hañariañe irezay, vaho hampijangañe ze hene hasilofañe naho ze arete-mandrambañe.
Jesus called his twelve disciples together and gave them power to throw out evil spirits, and to heal all kinds of diseases and sicknesses.
2 Zao ty tahina’ i folo ro’amby nitokaveñe Firaheñe rey: I Simona atao Petera, naho i Andrea rahalahi’e;
These are the names of the twelve apostles: first, Simon, (also called Peter), Andrew his brother, James the son of Zebedee, John his brother,
3 i Filipo naho i Bartolomeo; Iakobe naho i Jaona rahalahi’e ana’ i Zebedeele; i Tomasy naho i Mat’tý, ie nifohiñe ho mpampisongo mpangalak’ana’e; Iakobe ana’ i Alofey naho i Tereose;
Philip, Bartholomew, Thomas, Matthew the tax-collector, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddeus,
4 i Simona nte Kanana, vaho i Joda Askareiotà nifotetse azey.
Simon the revolutionary, and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus.
5 Nirahe’ Iesoà i folo ro’amby rezay le nafanto’e ami’ty hoe: Ko mañavelo mb’an-tane’ o kilakila ondatio, vaho ko migodañe mb’ an-drova’ o nte Samariao.
These Twelve Jesus sent out, telling them, “Don't go to the foreigners, or to any Samaritan city.
6 Akia mb’amo añondry nandrike amy anjomba’ Israeleio.
You are to go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
7 Taroño am’iereo te ho heneke i fifehean-dikerañey.
Wherever you go, tell the people, ‘The kingdom of heaven is near.’
8 Jangaño o marareo, ampolio amo vilasio ty haveloñe, liovo o angamaeo, mañaria kokolampa; le ko mandrambe sara, fa am-patarihañe ty nahazoa’ areo, matariha ka.
Heal those who are sick. Resurrect the dead. Cure the lepers. Drive out demons. You received freely, so give freely!
9 Ko mamotry vola-mena ndra vola-foty; ndra vara an-kontra’ areo;
Don't carry any gold, silver, or copper coins in your pockets,
10 ndra sikiñe halimbe, ndra hana, ndra kobaiñe am-pita’areo; amy te mañeva rima mahaeneñe ty mpièke.
or a bag for your journey, or two cloaks, or sandals, or a walking stick, for a worker deserves to be supported.
11 Amy ze tanàñe ndra rova iziliha’ areo, añontaneo, ia t’indaty vañoñe ama’e, le mitambara ao ampara’ te mienga.
Wherever you go, whatever town or village, ask for someone who lives according to good principles, and remain there until you leave.
12 Ie mizilike añ’anjomba ao, ampanintsiño ami’ty hoe: Hanintsiñe ty anjomba toy, naho Fañanintsiñe amy ze hene mpimoneñe ama’e.
When you enter the house, give it your blessing.
13 Ie mañeva i anjombay, le ho ama’e i fañanintsi’ areoy, f’ie tsy mañeva le himpoly ama’ areo i fañanintsi’ areoy.
If the home deserves it, let your peace rest on it, but if it doesn't deserve it, let your peace return to you.
14 Naho eo ty tsy mampihova, tsy mañaoñe anahareo, le avoto i anjombay vaho ahintsaño ty deboke am-pandia’ areo.
If someone doesn't welcome you, and refuses to listen to what you have to say, then leave that house or that town, shaking its dust off your feet as you go.
15 Eka! to t’itaroñako te soa ho a i Sodoma naho i Gomora amy andro zay te amy rovay.
I tell you the truth, it will be better for Sodom and Gomorrah at the Day of Judgment than for that town!
16 Inao, ahitriko hoe añondry añivo amboa-romotse nahareo; aa le mahihira hoe mereñe vaho manoa hatso-pon-deho.
Look, I'm sending you out like sheep among wolves. So be as wise as serpents and harmless as doves.
17 Itaò ondatio, fa tsy am-pivori’ iareo naho amo anjomba fitontona’ iareoo ty aneseañe anahareo,
Watch out for those who will hand you over to be tried by town councils and will whip you in their synagogues.
18 fa amo mpifeheo naho amo mpanjakao, hahafitaroña’ areo ahy am’ iereo naho amo kilakila’ondatio.
You will be dragged before governors and kings because of me, to witness to them and to the foreigners.
19 Ie tsepahe’ iereo, ko aliheñe amy ze ho saontsie’ areo, fa hatolotse amy ora paiañe azey ty ho saontsie’ areo.
But when they put you on trial, don't worry about how you should speak or what you should say, because you'll be told what to say at the right time.
20 Tsy inahareo ty hisaontsy, fa i Arofo-Masin-dRaekoy ty hitsara añama’areo.
For it isn't you who will speak but the spirit of the Father will speak through you.
21 Hasesen-drahalahy ty rahalahi’e havetrake, naho ty rae ty ana’e; hitroatse aman-droae’e o anakeo, haneseke iareo ho koromaheñe.
Brother will betray brother and have him killed, and a father will do the same to his child. Children will rebel against their parents, and have them put to death.
22 Ho fañinjeañe naho fañembañañe amy ze hene fifeheañe nahareo ty ami’ty añarako, fa ze mahafeake pak’ amy figadoñañe nifantañañey ty ho rombaheñe.
Everyone will hate you because you follow me, but those who endure until the end will be saved.
23 Ie horidañeñe ami’ty rova toy, mitribaña an-day mb’ami’ty ila’e. Eka! to t’itaroñako te, tsy ho tsitsi’ areo o rova’ Israeleo ampara’ te totsake i Ana’ ondatiy.
When you're persecuted in one town, run away to the next. I'm telling the truth: you won't finish going to the towns of Israel before the Son of man comes.
24 Tsy ambone’ i talè’ey ty mpiòke, naho tsy ambone’ i tompo’ey ty ondevo.
Disciples are not more important than their teacher; servants are not more important than their master.
25 Mahaeneñe i mpiokey te ho hambañe amy talè’ey, naho te hanahake i tompo’ey ty mpitoroñe. Aa naho natao’ iereo Baalzebobe i talèn’ anjombay, àntsake o ana’ i anjomba’eio.
Disciples should be satisfied to become like their teacher, and servants like their master. If the head of the house has been called the head demon Beelzebub, then the members of his household will be demonized even more!
26 Ko ihembañañe, amy te tsy eo ty tsy haboake ndra mietake ze tsy hampahafohinañe.
So don't be frightened of them, for there's nothing covered that won't be exposed, and nothing hidden that won't be made known.
27 Ze itaroñako añ’ieñe ao, isaontsio an-kazavàñe ey; naho ze janji’areo an-dravembia, itseizo an-dalambey.
What I tell you here in the dark, declare when it's light, and what you hear whispered in your ear, shout from the rooftops.
28 Ko mirevendreveñe amo mpamono sandriñeo f’ie tsy maha-vono arofo. Te mone eveño i maharotsake troke naho sandriñe an-tsikeokeok’ aoy. (Geenna g1067)
Don't be afraid of those who can kill you physically, but can't kill you spiritually. Instead, be afraid of the one who can destroy you physically and spiritually in the fires of destruction. (Geenna g1067)
29 Tsy aletake drala raike hao ty foly roe? Fe leo raike ama’e tsy hipoke an-tane naho tsy satrien-dRae’areo an-dindiñe ao.
Aren't two sparrows sold for just one penny? But not a single one of them falls to the ground without your Father knowing about it.
30 Tsy fa niaheñe iaby hao ze maroin’ añambone’ areo?
Even the hairs on your head have all been counted.
31 Ko mahimahiñe, ie lombolombo’ o folio.
So don't worry—you're worth more than many sparrows!
32 Ze mañonjoñe ahy añatrefa’ ondatio, ty honjoneko añatrefan-dRaeko andindìñ’ ao.
Anyone who publicly declares their commitment to me, I will also declare my commitment to them before my Father in heaven.
But anyone who publicly denies me, I will also deny before my Father in heaven.
34 Ko atao’ areo te niavy hanese fañanintsiñe an-tane atoy raho; tsy niavy hanese fañanintsiñe fa fibara.
Don't think I've come to bring peace on earth. I haven't come to bring peace, but a sword.
35 Ty hampiavakavahañe ondatio ty nivotrahako atoy, ty ana-dahy aman-drae’e, ty anak-ampela aman-drene’e, ty vinanto-ampela aman-drafoza ampela’e
I've come ‘to turn a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
36 Ho rafelahi’ondaty o kokoa’eo,
Your enemies will be those of your own family!’
37 Tsy mañeva ahy ze mikoko rae ndra rene mandikoatse ahy, naho tsy mañeva ahy ze mikoko ana-dahy ndra anak-ampela mandikoatse ahy,
If you love your father or mother more than me you don't deserve to be mine, and if you love your son or daughter more than me you don't deserve to be mine.
38 Tsy mañeva ahy ze tsy mandrambe i hatae ajale’ey vaho mañorik’ ahy.
If you don't pick up your cross and follow me you don't deserve to be mine.
39 Ze mpitea havelo ro hañanto aze, fe ho tendreke amy ze mamoe’ay ty amako.
If you try to save your life, you will lose it, but if you lose your life because of me you will save it.
40 Ze mandrambe anahareo, mandrambe ahy, naho ze mandrambe ahy mandrambe i nañirake Ahiy.
Those who welcome you welcome me, and those who welcome me welcome the one that sent me.
41 Ze mandrambe mpitoky ami’ty tahina’ ty mpitoky, ro handrambe ty tambem-pitoky; ze mandrambe ty vañoñe ami’ty tahina’ ty vañoñe ro handrambe ty tambe’ i vañoñey.
Those who welcome a prophet because that's what they are will receive the same reward as a prophet. Those who welcome someone who does right will receive the same reward as someone who does right.
42 Ze manjotso rano manintsiñe am-pitovy ami’ty raike amo kedeke retoa ami’ty tahina’ ty Firaheko, Eka! to t’ivolañako t’ie tsy mbia ho motso tambe.
I tell you the truth, those who give a drink of cool water to the least important of my disciples will definitely not miss out on their reward.”
