Matayu 9
1 Yesu kakweniti mumtumbwi na kalokiti litanda na kuwuya mlushi lwakuwi.
And he got into a boat and went across and came to his town.
2 Wantu wamu wamjegiti muntu yakalewelekiti nshimba, wamgonjeka mumkeka. Yesu pakawoniti njimiru yawu, kamgambira muntu yakalewelekiti, “Naguwera na lyoga mwana gwangu! Gulegiziwa vidoda vyagutenditi.”
And they took to him a man stretched on a bed who had no power of moving; and Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the man who was ill, Son, take heart; you have forgiveness for your sins.
3 Wafunda wamu wa Malagaliru wanja kulitakulira weni, “Muntu ayu kankumwigilanga Mlungu!”
And some of the scribes said among themselves, This man has no respect for God.
4 Yesu kagamaniti maholu gawu, su kawagambira, “Iwera hashi mwankulihola vitwatira vidoda?
And Jesus, having knowledge of what was in their minds, said, Why are your thoughts evil?
5 Hashi, shizotopa ng'anji shii, ‘Kutakula vidoda vyagutenditi vilekiziwa,’ ama kutakula, ‘Gugoloki na gugendigendi’?
For which is the simpler, to say, You have forgiveness for your sins; or to say, Get up and go?
6 Hanuwalanguziyi kuwera Mwana gwa Muntu kana uwezu pasipanu wa kuwalekeziya wantu vidoda vyawatenda.” Su kamgambira muntu yakalewelekiti, “Gugoloki, gutoli mkeka gwaku na gugendi ukaya kwaku.”
But so that you may see that on earth the Son of man has authority for the forgiveness of sins, (then said he to the man who was ill, ) Get up, and take up your bed, and go to your house.
7 Muntu yakalewelekiti kagoloka na kagenda ukaya kwakuwi.
And he got up and went away to his house.
8 Lipinga lya wantu pawawoniti vitwatira vyavilawiliti, walikangashiti na wamkwisiti Mlungu yakawayupiti wantu uwezu wa ntambu ayi.
But when the people saw it they were full of fear, and gave glory to God who had given such authority to men.
9 Yesu kawukiti pahala paliya, na pakaweriti kankugendagenda, kamwoniti mtola kodi yawamshema Matayu, kalivaga palihengu lyakuwi. Yesu kamgambira, “Gunfati.” Matayu kagoloka na kamfata.
And when Jesus was going from there, he saw a man whose name was Matthew, seated at the place where taxes were taken; and he said to him, Come after me. And he got up and went after him.
10 Yesu pakaweriti ukaya kwa Matayu kankuliya shiboga, watola kodi wavuwa na watenda vidoda wiziti kuliya shiboga pamuhera na Yesu na wafundwa wakuwi.
And it came about, when he was in the house taking food, that a number of tax-farmers and sinners came and took their places with Jesus and his disciples.
11 Mafalisayu wamu pawawoniti aga, wawakosiya wafundwa wakuwi, “Iwera hashi mfunda gwenu kankuliya shiboga pamuhera na watola kodi na yawatenda vidoda?”
And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, Why does your Master take food with tax-farmers and sinners?
12 Yesu kawapikaniriti na kawankula, “Wantu wakomu wamfira ndiri mganga, kumbiti walweli hera ndo wamfira mganga.
But on hearing this he said, Those who are well have no need of a medical man, but those who are ill.
13 Mlungu kalonga, Mgendi mwakalifundi Lilembu ali linanagala lyana mana gaa, ‘Neni ntakula nfira lusungu, nfira ndiri tambiku.’ Niza ndiri kuwashema wantu yawalihola wankumfiriziya Mlungu, kumbiti yawatenda vidoda.”
But go and take to heart the sense of these words, My desire is for mercy, not offerings: for I have come not to get the upright, but sinners.
14 Shakapanu wantumini wa Yohani Mbatiza wamgenderiti Yesu, wamkosiya, “Iwera hashi, twenga pamuhera na Mafalisayu tuleka kuliya, kumbiti wafundwa waku waleka ndiri kuliya shiboga?”
Then the disciples of John came to him, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees frequently go without food, but your disciples do not?
15 Yesu kawankula, “Hashi, mulihola kuwera wahenga pawawera mumsambu gwa ndowa wahinginika pawawera na mpalu gwa ndowa? Nakaka hapeni wahinginiki! Kumbiti lishaka lyankwiza pawamuwusiya mpalu gwa ndowa, ndo womberi hawaleki kuliya.
And Jesus said to them, Will the friends of the newly-married man be sad as long as he is with them? But the days will come when he will be taken away from them, and then will they go without food.
16 “Kwahera muntu yakasona shiraka sha nguwu ya syayi munguwu ngona toziya shiraka ashi hashidegi nguwu ngona na padegekiti palii hapongereki.
And no man puts a bit of new cloth on an old coat, for by pulling away from the old, it makes a worse hole.
17 Ama kwahera muntu yoseri yakaweza kulekera divayi ya syayi mumihaku ya lukuli lugona, pakatenda hangu mihaku igona haipantiki na divayi hayitiki. Kumbiti divayi ya syayi ilekerwa mumihaku ya lukuli ya syayi na vyoseri havitulwi weri.”
And men do not put new wine into old wine-skins; or the skins will be burst and the wine will come out, and the skins are of no more use: but they put new wine into new wine-skins, and so the two will be safe.
18 Yesu pakaweriti kankutakula aga, afisa gwa Shiyawudi kamwiziriti, kamsuntamalira na kamgambira, “Muhinga gwangu kahowa vinuvinu, kumbiti shondi shondi, gwizi gumtuliri liwoku lyaku nayomberi hakaweri mkomu.”
While he was saying these things to them, there came a ruler and gave him worship, saying, My daughter is even now dead; but come and put your hand on her, and she will come back to life.
19 Yesu kawuka pamuhera na wafundwa wakuwi, wamfatiti afisa.
And Jesus got up and went after him, and so did his disciples.
20 Mdala yakaweriti mlweri gwa kusuma mwazi kwa mivinja lilongu na mbili, kamwiziriti Yesu kumbeli na kuyishinkula nguwu yakuwi.
And a woman, who for twelve years had had a flow of blood, came after him, and put her hand on the edge of his robe:
21 Kalihola mumoyu mwakuwi, “Handa panshinkula nguwu, haweri mkomu.”
Because, she said to herself, if I may but put my hand on his robe, I will be made well.
22 Su, Yesu kagalambuka kamwona, kamgambira, “Mhinga gwangu, nagwana lyoga! Njimiru yaku ikuponiziya.” Pala palii mdala ulii kapona kusuma mwazi.
But Jesus, turning and seeing her, said, Daughter, take heart; your faith has made you well. And the woman was made well from that hour.
23 Shakapanu Yesu kingira mnumba mwa afisa ulii. Pakawawoniti wagomba luperembi lwa kudaya na wantu wavua wankudaya,
And when Jesus came into the ruler's house and saw the players with their instruments and the people making a noise,
24 kalonga, “Kila muntu kalawi kunja! Muhinga ayu kahowa ndiri, kumbiti kagonja hera!” Womberi wamseka Yesu.
He said, Make room; for the girl is not dead, but sleeping. And they were laughing at him.
25 Su, pawawawusiyiti wantu kulawa kunja, Yesu kingiriti mnumba kwa muhinga yakahowiti na kamkola liwoku lyakuwi na yomberi kagoloka.
But when the people were sent out, he went in and took her by the hand; and the girl got up.
26 Vitwatila avi vieniyiti pa isi yoseri ilii.
And the news of it went out into all that land.
27 Yesu kawukiti pahala paliya na pakaweriti kankugendagenda, wanalwisi awili wanjiti kumfata. Womberi wabotanga, “Gutuwoneri lusungu Mwana gwa Dawudi!”
And when Jesus went on from there, two blind men came after him, crying out, Have mercy on us, you Son of David.
28 Yesu pakingiriti mnumba, wanalwisi wawili wamgendera, nayomberi kawakosiya, “Hashi, mjimira handa neni nana uwezu wa kuwaponiziya?” Womberi wamwankula, “Yina mtuwa!”
And when he had come into the house, the blind men came to him; and Jesus said to them, Have you faith that I am able to do this? They said to him, Yes, Lord.
29 Shakapanu Yesu kagashinkula masu gawu, kalonga, “Na iweri kwa mwenga ntambu yamjimira!”
Then he put his hand on their eyes, saying, As your faith is, let it be done to you.
30 Na masu gawu gawera makomu. Su Yesu kawalagalira, “Namumgambira muntu yoseri shitwatila ashi!”
And their eyes were made open. And Jesus said to them sharply, Let no man have knowledge of it.
31 Kumbiti womberi wawuka na wabwera visoweru vya Yesu pa isi ilii yoseri.
But they went out and gave news of him in all that land.
32 Wantu pawaweriti wankugenda zawu, wantu wamonga wamjegera Yesu muntu yakaweriti bubu toziya kaweriti na washamshera.
And while they were going away, there came to him a man without the power of talking, and with an evil spirit.
33 Katepu hera shamshera pawamlaviyiti, muntu ulii kanja kutakula. Wantu woseri walikangashiti nentu pawalonga, “Hatweni woni shitwatila gambira ashi mu Israeli!”
And when the evil spirit had been sent out, the man had the power of talking: and they were all surprised, saying, Such a thing has never been seen in Israel.
34 Kumbiti Mafalisayu walonga, “Mkulu gwa washamshera ndo yakamupiti Yesu likakala lya kuwalaviya washamshera.”
But the Pharisees said, By the ruler of evil spirits, he sends evil spirits out of men.
35 Yesu katyangiriti lushi zoseri na vijiji vyoseri. Kafunditi munumba za Mlungu, na kabweriti Shisoweru Shiwagira sha Ufalumi wa Mlungu, na kuwaponiziya wantu malweri ga ntambu zoseri.
And Jesus went about all the towns and small places, teaching in their Synagogues and preaching the good news of the kingdom and making well all sorts of disease and pain.
36 Su, pakawawoniti vipinga vipinga vya wantu, moyu gwakuwi gumemiti lusungu, toziya waweriti watoka na wanalyoga gambira kondolu wahera mlolera.
But when he saw all the people he was moved with pity for them, because they were troubled and wandering like sheep without a keeper.
37 Su kawagambira wafundwa wakuwi, “Mabenu gavuwa, kumbiti watenda lihengu lya kubena wavua ndiri.
Then he said to his disciples, There is much grain but not enough men to get it in.
38 Su, mumluwi yakana mabenu hakajegi watenda lihengu wabeni viboga vyakuwi.”
Make prayer, then, to the Lord of the grain-fields, that he may send out workers to get in his grain.
