Mateyo 9
1 Yesu walatanta mu bwato ne kutampuka lwenje, kuya kumunshi nkwalikwikala.
And he got into a boat and went across and came to his town.
2 Kopeloko bantu nabambi balamuletela mulema watontola myendo kabali bamoneka pampasa. pakubona lushomo lwabo, Yesu walambila mulema uyo “Yumisha moyo omwanobe! bwipishi bwakobe bulalekelelwa.”
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 Mpwalenseco beshikwiyisha milawo ya Mose nabambi, balatatika kumufwiya mumyoyo yabo ne kwambeti, “Uyu muntu lanyanshanga Lesa!”
And some of the scribes said among themselves, This man has no respect for God.
4 Nomba Yesu pakwishiba miyeyo yabo walambeti, “Mukute kuyeyela cani bintu byaipa mumyoyo yenu?
And Jesus, having knowledge of what was in their minds, said, Why are your thoughts evil?
5 Capubako nicipeyo kwambeti, ‘Bwipishi bwakobe bulalekelelwa’ Nambi kwambeti, ‘nyamuka wende.’
For which is the simpler, to say, You have forgiveness for your sins; or to say, Get up and go?
6 Nomba ndayandanga kwambeti mwinshibeti, Mwana Muntu ukute ngofu shakulekelela bwipishi pacishi capanshi pano.” Neco walambila mulema watontola myenda uyu, “Nyamuka manta mpasa yakobe, koya kwenu.”
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 Popelapo muntu usa walanyamuka ne kuya kumunshi kwabo.
And he got up and went away to his house.
8 Bantu basa mpobalaboneco, balekatwa buyowa, ne kulumbanya Lesa walapa bantu ngofu shabwendeleshi shilicisa.
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 mpwalikufumako walabona muntu walikukwiweti, Mateyo kaliwekala mukanda ka misonko, walamwambileti, “Nenjobe, nkonke.” Pacindi copeleco Mateyo walanyamuka ne kumukonkela.
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 mpwalikulya mu ng'anda ya Mateyo. Kwalesa beshimisonko bangi, ne beshi kwinsa byaipa, balesa kulya nendi pamo ne beshikwiya bakendi.
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 Mpobalaboneco Bafalisi, balatatika kubepusha beshikwiya bakendi Yesu eti, “Inga bashikwiyisha benu balalingeconi pamo ne beshimisonko, ne beshi kwinsa byaipa?”
And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, Why does your Master take food with tax-farmers and sinners?
12 Nendi Yesu pakunyumfweco, walabakumbuleti, “Bantu balabulunga kukolwa nkabakute kuyanda mu ng'anga sobwe, nsombi balwashi ebakute kuyanda mung'anda.”
But on hearing this he said, Those who are well have no need of a medical man, but those who are ill.
13 “Nomba kamwiyani cilambanga maswi awa, alambangeti, ‘Nkandayandangeti bantu bampe milumbo sobwe, nsombi ndayandangeti bantu beenshilenga nkumbo kubanabo.’ Pakwinga nkandaleshila kukuwa bantu balulama sobwe, nsombi beshikwinsa byaipa.”
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 Panyuma pakendi beshikwiya ba Yohane mubatishi, balesa kuli Yesu ne kumwipusheti, “Afwe, ne Bafalisi tukute kulikanisha kulya tunkanda twingi, nomba nicani beshikwiya benu nkabakute kulikanishapo?”
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 Nendi Yesu walambeti, “Sena banendi shibwinga ngabalyetesha bacibanga pamo ne shibwinga? Ico nkacinshiki sobwe! Nomba nicikashike cindi ncotibakamufulepo shibwinga usa, popelapo nibakatatike kulikanisha kulya.
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 “Muntu nkakute kumamika cikamba ca cikwisa ca lino lino ne kucitungila pa mwinjila ukulukulu, pakwinga cikamba ca cikwisa ca lino lino ngacikokonyana nekumatula uwo mwinjila ukulukulu, ne kumatuka kulico kukute kushiya cibwanko.
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 Kayi paliya muntu ukute kubika waini mucifwafumwa cacipaya cakaindi sobwe, pakwinga nawinseco, cifwafumwa cacipaya ngacipasuka, waini ngautaika, nasho nkomwa ngashibula ncito. Waini walino lino bakute kubika munkomwa sha lino lino. Neco byonse bibili bikute kubambwa cena.”
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 kacamba, kwalesa mukulene wa Bayuda walesa kumusuntamina ne kwambeti, “Mwaname mutukashi ulipepi kufwa, ndapapata kamwisani mubike makasa enu palyendiye, kwambeti abe muyumi.”
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 Popelapo Yesu ne beshikwiya bakendi balanyamuka ne kuya nendi.
And Jesus got up and went after him, and so did his disciples.
20 Lino palikuba mutukashi walikukolwa bulwashi bwa mukunko kwa byaka likumi ne bibili, walesa cakunyuma kwa Yesu, ne kwisa kwikata kucelele kwa munganjo wa Yesu,
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 mumoyo mwakendi walikayeyeti, “Na njikatekowa munganjo wakendi ni nsengulwe.”
Because, she said to herself, if I may but put my hand on his robe, I will be made well.
22 Yesu popelapo walacebuka ne kumubona mutukashi uyo, Yesu walambeti, “Yumisha moyo mwaname, lushomo lwakobe lulakupulushu.” Pacindi copeleco mutukashi usa walasengulwa.
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 Yesu mpwalashika ku ng'anda kwa mukulene wa Bayuda usa, walacana bantu kabalilisha mikonkobesho nebisekele, nabambi kabalyuma pacali kulila mibila.
And when Jesus came into the ruler's house and saw the players with their instruments and the people making a noise,
24 Lino nendi Yesu walabambileti, “Kamupulani mwense, kashimbi uyu uliya kufwa sobwe, nsombi wonowatulo.” Popelapo bangi balatatika kumuseka.
He said, Make room; for the girl is not dead, but sleeping. And they were laughing at him.
25 Nomba bonse mpobalapulamo mu ng'anda, Yesu walaya kucimpetela nkwalikuba ne kuyakwikata kashimbi uyu pacikasa, popelapo walapunduka.
But when the people were sent out, he went in and took her by the hand; and the girl got up.
26 Impuwo iyi yalanyumfwika mucibela ca cishico.
And the news of it went out into all that land.
27 Mpwalikufumako, bantu bashipilwa babili balamukonkela nekutatika kubilikisheti, “Amwe Yesu mwanendi Dafeti, tunyumfwilekoni nkumbo!”
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 mpwalengila mung'anda bashipilwa babili basa balesa kulyendiye. nendi walabepusheti, “Sena mwashometi ngandimusengula?” Naboyo balakumbuleti, “Ee twashoma Nkambo.”
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 Yesu walabekata mumenso, ne kwambeti, “Cinshike kwelana ne lushomo lwenu.”
Then he put his hand on their eyes, saying, As your faith is, let it be done to you.
30 Popelapo menso abo alacaluka, balacikonsha kubona. Nomba Yesu walabambilisheti kabataya bambileko muntu naba umo sobwe.
And their eyes were made open. And Jesus said to them sharply, Let no man have knowledge of it.
31 Nomba kufumapo balo balatatika kumwaya mpuwo kumuntu uliyense mucibela ico.
But they went out and gave news of him in all that land.
32 Mpobalapula mung'anda nekutatika kuya, bantu nabambi balaleta muntu walikuba cibulu, cebo cakwikatwa ne mushimu waipa.
And while they were going away, there came to him a man without the power of talking, and with an evil spirit.
33 Yesu mpwalaufunya mushimu waipa usa, muntusa walacikonsha kwamba. Nomba bantu balakankamana cakwinseti balatatika kwambeti, “Nkatuna tucibonapo cintu camushoboyu mu Islayeli!”
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 Nomba nabo Bafalisi balambeti, “Lamupanga ngofu shakufunya mishimu yaipa ni mukulene wa mishimu yaipa.”
But the Pharisees said, By the ruler of evil spirits, he sends evil spirits out of men.
35 Yesu walendana mu minshi inene, ne ing'ana ing'ana, walikwiyisha mu misena yabo yakupaililamo, ne kukambauka Mulumbe Waina wa Bwami bwa Lesa, Kayi walasengula bulema bwapusanapusana ne malwashi apusana pusana.
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 Yesu mpwalabona makoto a bantu, walanyumfwa luse, pakwinga balikuba bantu balemenwa kayi batyompwa kubeti mbelele shabula mwembeshi.
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 Yesu walambila beshikwiya bakendi eti, “Butebushi bulafulu, nomba basebenshi balacepe.
Then he said to his disciples, There is much grain but not enough men to get it in.
38 Neco, kamusengani Lesa mwine butebushi kwambeti atume basebenshi bangi kuya kutebula.”
Make prayer, then, to the Lord of the grain-fields, that he may send out workers to get in his grain.
