This is the family history of Jesus the Messiah He came from the family of David who was from the family of Abraham,Bai aa ndo at'u a lukolo arilombola Jesu Masihi Jesu Masihi wambola kahi za lukolo lwa Daudi na Daudi naye akimbola kahi za lukolo lwa Burahemu
Abraham was the father of Isaac,Burahemu wamuzhala Isaka
So there were fourteen generations from Abraham to David There were also fourteen generations from David until the people were taken away to Babylon And there were fourteen more from the time the people were taken to Babylon until the Messiah was born,Kwa vizho kula Burahemu hatha muthawali Daudi kwakala na vizhazi kumi na vine Na kula Daudi hatha kuhalwa mateka kwa Ayahudi kuhirikwa Babiloni kukikala na vizhazi kumi na vine kaheri Na kula wakathi wa kuhalwa mateka kwa Ayahudi kuhirikwa Babiloni hatha kuzhalwa kwa iye Masihi nako kukikala na vizhazi kumi na vine
This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah happened His mother Mary was engaged to marry Joseph But before they married he learned that she was expecting a baby She was pregnant by the power of the Holy Spirit,Vikara kuzhalwa kwa Jesu Masihi kwakala vivi Maryamu ariye were andakala mameye Jesu were analolwa ni Josefu ela kabila k'adzamuhala akimanywa kukala ana mimba kwa nguvu za Roho Mweri

She will give birth to a son You will name him JesusGive him that name because he will save his people from their sins,Naye andazhala mwana mulume na mwana iye undamwiha Jesu mana iye nde andeaokola at'ue kula kahi za dambi zao
All this happened to make clear the full meaning of what the Lord said through the prophet,Bai vivi zhosi zhakala ili ro neno ririronenwa ni Bwana kukira kwa nabii rithimire Kwani nabii wanena akiamba
The virgin will be pregnant and will give birth to a son They will name him ImmanuelImmanuel means God with us,Lolani bikira andahenda mimba
When Joseph woke up he did what the Lords angel told him to do He married Mary,Vikara Josefu ariholamuka akihenda vizho arizhokala adzalagizwa ni ye malaika Wamuhala Maryamu

Jesus was born in the town of Bethlehem in Judea during the time when Herod was king After Jesus was born some wise men from the east came to Jerusalem,Jesu wazhalwa mudzi wa Beth'elehemu uriwo kahi za jimbo ra Judea makathi ga muthawali Herode Vikara Jesu arihozhalwa lola kwakudza at'u alachukuko mudzi mubomu wa Jerusalemu At'u aa were madzambola ts'i za mwambolero wa dzuwa
They asked people Where is the child who has been born to be the king of the Jews We saw the star that shows he was born We saw it rise in the sky in the east and have come to worship him,Bai marihofika Jerusalemu mauza Yuno muthawali wa Ayahudi ariyezhalwa a hiko Kwani fwayona yo nyenyezi ya kwakwe kuko mwambolero wa dzuwa naswi hudzire humuvoye
When King Herod heard about this it upset him as well as everyone else in Jerusalem,Bai muthawali Herode hamwenga na at'u osi a Jerusalemu mabudzyika sana marihosikira uvoro uwo
Herod called a meeting of all the leading Jewish priests and teachers of the law He asked them where the Messiah would be born,Na kwa ut'u uwo Herode akiaiha alombi abomu na alimu a Sheria a Kiyahudi akiauza kala Masihi were andazhalwa hiko
They answered In the town of Bethlehem in Judea just as the prophet wrote,Makiamba ni Beth'elehemu mudzi uriwo Judea Kwani vizho ndo nabii arizhoora akiamba
Bethlehem in the land of Judah,Mudzi wa Beth'elehemu kahi za ts'i ya Juda
Then Herod had a private meeting with the wise men from the east He learned from them the exact time they first saw the star,Herode arihosikira viryahu akiavuha k'anda aryahu at'u alachu akiauzat'o wo wakathi irihombolera yo nyenyezi Nao marihogonya kumwambira
Then he sent them to Bethlehem He said Go and look carefully for the child When you find him come tell me Then I can go worship him too,akiahuma ko Beth'elehemu akiamba Kauzeni-uzeni hatha mumone Mukikala mudzamona ndzoni munambire ili nami nende nikamuvoye
After the wise men heard the king they left They saw the same star they had seen in the east and they followed it The star went before them until it stopped above the place where the child was,Bai Herode arihogonya kunena nao o at'u alachu makigwira ngira ya kwenda Beth'elehemu Na lola mo ngirani yo nyenyezi mariyoyona ko mwambolero wa dzuwa ikiambolera kaheri nao makifwahirwa zhomu kuyona kaheri
They were very happy and excited to see the star,Bai nyenyezi iyo yaalongoza hatha ichendaima haho arihokala ye mwana mutsanga
The wise men came to the house where the child was with his mother Mary They bowed down and worshiped him Then they opened the boxes of gifts they had brought for him They gave him treasures of gold frankincense and myrrh,Bai marihongira mo nyumbani machendamona ye mwana mutsanga na mameye makimuzamira makimuvoya Gonya makivugula mikoba yao makimunosa dhahabu na uvumba na manemane
But God warned the wise men in a dream not to go back to Herod So they went home to their own country a different way,Bai marihokala madzagonya kumunosa Mulungu akiaonya kahi za ndoso kukala masiuye kwa Herode bule Kwa vizho makiuya kwao na ngira nyingine
After the wise men left an angel from the Lord came to Joseph in a dream The angel said Get up Take the child with his mother and escape to Egypt Herod wants to kill the child and will soon start looking for him Stay in Egypt until I tell you to come back,Vikara marihokala aryahu at'u alachu madzakwenda lola malaika wa Bwana akimwambolera Josefu ndosoni akimwamba Herode anamumala ye mwana amwalage Kwa vizho uka umuhale ye mutsanga na mameye muchimbirire Misiri Kakaleni kuko vivii hatha ho nindihomwamba muuye
So Joseph got ready and left for Egypt with the child and the mother They left during the night,Josefu ariholamuka akimuhala ye mutsanga na mameye makigwira ngira na usiku sio machenda Misiri
Joseph stayed in Egypt until Herod died This gave full meaning to what the Lord said through the prophet I called my son to come out of Egypt,Bai makala kuko Misiri hatha Herode akifwa ndo makiuya Na vivi zhosi zhakala ili riryahu neno ririronenwa ni Mulungu kukirira kwa nabii rithimire Kwani nabii wanena akiamba Namwiha Mwanangu kula Misiri
Herod saw that the wise men had fooled him and he was very angry So he gave an order to kill all the baby boys in Bethlehem and the whole area around Bethlehem Herod had learned from the wise men the time the baby was born It was now two years from that time So he said to kill all the boys who were two years old and younger,Vikara Herode arihoona kukala aryahu at'u alachu mamuvurya watsukirwa zhomu na akihuma shikari Beth'elehemu na midzi iriyo k'anda-k'andaze makalage ahoho osi a kilume a kula miaka miri kwenda ts'ini Vivi wavihenda kulingana na haho nyenyezi irihombolera here arizhoambirwa ni o at'u alachu

While Joseph was in Egypt Herod died An angel from the Lord came to Joseph in a dream,Bai Josefu wakala Misiri vivii hatha Herode anafwa lola malaika wa Bwana akimwambolera ndosoni
and said Get up Take the child with his mother and go to Israel Those who were trying to kill the child are now dead,akimwamba Uka umuhale ye muhoho na mameye muuye ts'i ya Iziraeli kwani o mariokala manamala roho ya ye muhoho mafwa
So Joseph took the child and the mother and went to Israel,Kwa vizho Josefu akiuka akimuhala ye mwana na mameye makiuya Iziraeli
But he heard that Archelaus was now king in Judea Archelaus became king when his father Herod died So Joseph was afraid to go there Then after being warned in a dream he went away to the area of Galilee,Arihofika Iziraeli Josefu akisikira kukala Arikelao mwana wa Herode nde athawalaye Judea hat'u ha babaye Kwa vizho akigoha kuuya ko kwao Judea Bai Mulungu akimwambolera kahi za ndoso akimwamba ende jimbo ra Galilaya naye akihenda vizho
He went to a town called Nazareth and lived there This gave full meaning to what God said through the prophets God said the Messiahwould be called a Nazarene,Arihofika Galilaya Josefu wakwendatoa kahi za mudzi uifwao Nazareth'i Vivi zhakala ili ro neno ririronenwa ni manabii dzulu za iye Jesu rithimire Kwani manabii manena makiamba Andaifwa Munazareth'i
When it was the right time John the Baptizer began telling people a message from God This was out in the desert area of Judea,Bai bada ya miaka ya kuthala kwambola mwanamulume ariyekala anaifwa Johana Mubat'izaji Johana wahubiri ko nyika ya Judea na kuamba
John said Change your hearts and lives because Gods kingdom is now very near,Thubuni kwani uthawali wa mulunguni udzafika hehi
John is the one Isaiah the prophet was talking about when he said,Yuyu Johana ndiye ariyeambwa ni nabii Isaya haryahu arihonena akiamba
Johns clothes were made from camels hair and he had a leather belt around his waist For food he ate locusts and wild honey,Valo ra Johana were ni ra nyoga za ngamira Na wakala akidzifunga ukanda wa k'ingo chununi mwakwe Chakuryache were ni kw'eth'eth'e na uchi wa nyuchi
People came to John from Jerusalem and the rest of Judea and from all the areas along the Jordan River,K'uzhona zho at'u osi a Jerusalemu na a midzi mingine yosi ya Judea na at'u osi mariokala makitoa kahi za midzi iriyo k'anda-k'anda za muho wa Jorodani marihovisikira bagabaga makimuthuwa
They confessed the bad things they had done and John baptized them in the Jordan,Nao maziungama dambi zao na Johana akiabat'iza kahi za wo muho wa Jorodani
Many Pharisees and Sadducees came to where John was baptizing people When John saw them he said You are all snakes Who warned you to run from Gods judgment that is coming,Ela arihokala anaenderera kubat'iza kukidza Mafarisayo na Masadukayo anji nao makikala madzirebat'izwa Bai Johana arihoaona akiadumulira akiamba H'enwi kizhazi cha nyoka nwi Ni h'ani ariyemwambira kukala muzichimbire zo k'oro za Mulungu zidzazo
Change your hearts And show by the way you live that you have changed,H'aya mahendo genu naganyese kukala mudzathubu dambi jeri
I know what you are thinking You want to say but Abraham is our father That means nothing I tell you God could make children for Abraham from these rocks,Na musidzikenge bule mukaamba mu ana a Burahemu Kwani namwambira kamare kukala Mulungu anadima kumuumbira ana Burahemu hatha kula kwa gaga mawe
The ax is now ready to cut down the treesEvery tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire,Na vivi be tsoka ri ho kolo kare na kila muhi usiwozhala matunda madzo undathemwa utsufwe mohoni
I baptize you with water to show that you have changed your hearts and lives But there is someone coming later who is able to do more than I can I am not good enough to be the slave who takes off his sandals He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire,Mino ninamubat'iza kwa madzi kamwe kunyesa kukala mudzathubu dambi zenu ela ye andiyekudza nyuma zangu ni mubomu kukira mimi Kwandza mosi sifika hatha mut'u wa kumuvula virahuzhe Iye andamubat'iza kwa Roho Mweri na kwa moho
He will come ready to clean the grainHe will separate the good grain from the straw and he will put the good part into his barn Then he will burn the useless part with a fire that cannot be stopped,Na adzagwirira lungo anahehet'a ngano Akigonya kuhehet'a andahala yo ngano ayangize lutsagani gonya ahale wo wiswa autsuhe kahi za moho usiwozima
Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan River He came to John wanting John to baptize him,Bai makathi garyahu Johana arihokala anabat'iza at'u Jesu wambola jimbo ra Galilaya achenda Jorodani ili naye akabat'izwe ni Johana
But John tried to stop him John said Why do you come to me to be baptized I should be baptized by you,Vikara Johana arihoona kukala Jesu naye anamala kubat'izwa akimwamba Mino namala nibat'izwe ni uwe we unadza kwangu Kwa vizho akikala anamala kukahala kumubat'iza
Jesus answered Let it be this way for now We should do whatever God says is right Then John agreed,Ela Jesu akimudzigidzya akimwamba Vihende kwa rero kwani vizho ndo hundakala hunathimiza hachi yosi Johana arihosikira viryahu akikubali kumubat'iza Jesu
So Jesus was baptized As soon as he came up out of the water the sky opened and he saw Gods Spirit coming down on him like a dove,Bai Jesu arihokala adzagonya kubat'izwa wambola mo madzini Bai arihombola thu lola ko mulunguni kukigunuka na akiona Roho wa Mulungu anatharamuka here giya hatha akidzamuthulama
A voice from heaven said This is my Son the one I love I am very pleased with him,Na lola haho henye mumiro uchambola kula ko mulunguni ukiamba Yuyu ni Mwanangu muhendzwi anifwahizaye
Then the Spirit led Jesus into the desert He was taken there to be tempted by the devil,Bai Jesu akilongozwa ni Roho na achenda nyika kwendajezwa ni Shethani
Jesus ate nothing for 40 days and nights After this he was very hungry,Wafunga kwa siku mirongo mine usiku na mutsana na badaye akisikira ndzala
The devilcame to tempt him and said If you are the Son of God tell these rocks to become bread,Shethani akimuthuwa akimwamba Chamba u Mwana wa Mulungu jeri gambire gaga mawe gakale mikahe
Jesus answered him The Scriptures say,Jesu akimudzigidzya akimwamba Zhaorwa kukala Mudamu k'andakala moyo kwa mukahe thu ela kwa kila neno rimbolaro kanwani mwa Mulungu
Then the devil led Jesus to the holy city of Jerusalem and put him on a high place at the edge of the Temple area,Shethani akimuhala hatha kuko mudzi mueri wa Jerusalemu akimukweza dzulu za wo munara wa ro Hekalu
He said to Jesus If you are the Son of God jump off because the Scriptures say,akimwamba Chamba u Mwana wa Mulungu jeri dzitsuhe ko ts'i kwani zhaorwa kukala Andaalagiza malaikae makurinde mandakwanula na mikono yao p'ore ukakwala iwe
Jesus answered The Scriptures also say You must not test the Lord your God,Jesu akimudzigidzya akimwamba Zhaorwa kaheri kukala Usimujeze Bwana Mulunguo bule
Then the devil led Jesus to the top of a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and all the wonderful things in them,K'uzhona anambola haho Shethani akimuhala Jesu achenda naye hatha dzulu za murima mure zhomu Akimwanyesa ts'i zosi za urumwengu na ngumaze
The devil said If you will bow down and worship me I will give you all these things,Akimwamba Ukinizamira ukinivoya vivi zhosi uzhonazho nindakup'a
Jesus said to him Get away from me Satan The Scriptures say,K'ona Jesu akimudzigidzya akimwamba Hauke Shethani kwani zhaorwa kukala Muvoye Bwana Mulunguo na umuhumikire iye h'akeye
So the devil left him Then some angels came to Jesus and helped him,Ndo Shethani akimuricha na lola kukidza malaika makidzamuhumikira
Jesus heard that John was put in prison so he went back to Galilee,Bai Jesu wakala ko jimbo ra Judea ela arihosikira kukala Johana Mubat'izaji wagwirwa achangizwa jela akikumbola kuko akiuya Galilaya
But he did not stay in Nazareth He went to live in Capernaum a town near Lake Galilee in the area near Zebulun and Naphtali,Arihofika Galilaya kuko Nazareth'i akikwambola achendatoa Kaperinaumu Mudzi uwo were u k'anda-k'anda ya ziya ra Galilaya kahi za muhaka wa lalo ra Zabuloni na lalo ra Nafutali
He did this to give full meaning to what the prophet Isaiah said,Bai Jesu wakwendatoa kuko ili riryahu neno ririronenwa ni nabii Isaya rithimire Kwani Isaya wanena akiamba
Listen land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali,Lalo ra Zabuloni na lalo ra Nafutali
The people who live in spiritual darkness,at'u mariokala ma kizani
From that time Jesus began to tell people his message Change your hearts and lives because Gods kingdom is now very near,Bai kula haho Jesu akikwatya kuhubiri akiamba Thubuni mana uthawali wa mulunguni udzafika hehi
As Jesus was walking by Lake Galilee he saw two brothers Simon called Peter and Simons brother Andrew These brothers were fishermen and they were fishing in the lake with a net,Siku mwenga Jesu arihokala anatsembera k'anda-k'anda za ziya ra Galilaya wakwendamuthekeza mut'u na nduguye manatsuha vimia zhao mavuhe makumba kwani were ni avuhi Mumwenga were anaifwa Simoni ariye were pia anaifwa P'et'ero Ye mungine ye were anaifwa Anderea
Jesus said to them Come follow me and I will make you a different kind of fishermen You will bring in people not fish,K'uzhona arihoaona akiambira Nithuwani nami nindamuhendya mukale avuhi a at'u
Simon and Andrew immediately left their nets and followed him,Marihosikira vizho thu Simoni na Anderea makigwaga kare zho vimia zhao makimuthuwa
Jesus continued walking by Lake Galilee He saw two other brothers James and John the sons of Zebedee They were in a boat with their father Zebedee They were preparing their nets to catch fish Jesus told the brothers to come with him,Anala haho achenda hatha anafika ho mbere achendamuthekeza mut'u na nduguye kaheri Mumwenga were anaifwa Jakobu na ye mungine akikala anaifwa Johana At'u aa were ni ana a Zebedayo Hatha zho Jesu anendaathekeza be were manafuma-fuma vimia zhao hamwenga na babiyao mo dauni mwao Bai Jesu arihoaiha thu
So they immediately left the boat and their father and they followed Jesus,Jakobu na Johana makimuricha ye babiyao hamwenga na ro dau makimuthuwa Jesu
Jesus went everywhere in the country of Galilee He taught in the synagogues and told the Good News about Gods kingdom And he healed all the peoples diseases and sicknesses,K'uzhona zho Jesu ariholaa haho wadengereka Galilaya yosi kuhubiri na kufundisha at'u kahi za masinagogi gao dzulu za Uvoro Udzo wa uthawali wa mulunguni Kidza akihoza at'u anji mariokala na makongo na manyonge ga kila namuna
The news about Jesus spread all over Syria and people brought to him all those who were sick They were suffering from different kinds of diseases and pain Some had demons inside them some suffered from seizures and some were paralyzed Jesus healed them all,Kwa ut'u uwo wenye bai Jesu akihenda nguma kahi za ts'i yosi ya Siria Na lola at'u makimurehera akongo na anyonge a kila namuna A p'ep'o a vitsala na akuholoza na osi Jesu akiahoza

When Jesus saw the crowds of people there he went up on a hill and sat down His followers came and sat next to him,Lola siku mwenga at'u anji makala manamudzalira Jesu Vikara arihoona viryahu akikwera dzulu za murima akikelesi Bai anafundzie makimuthuwa kuko
Then Jesus began teaching the people He said,Marihofika kuko Jesu wakelesi na akikwatya kuafundisha akiamba

You are the salt of the earth But if the salt loses its taste it cannot be made salty again Salt is useless if it loses its salty taste It will be thrown out where people will just walk on it,Ninwi be mu munyu wa urumwengu Vikara munyu ukikala udzauya k'aukoza undahendwadze hatha ukoze kaheri Jibu ni k'aufwaha kit'u bule hatha kazi ni kutsufwa uzhogwe-zhogwe ni at'u

Dont think that I have come to destroy the Law of Moses or the teaching of the prophets I have come not to destroy their teachings but to give full meaning to them,Sioneni kukala nakudzagaluza Sheria ya Musa na mafundisho ga manabii hatha Sidziregagaluza bule nakudza nigathimize
I assure you that nothing will disappear from the law until heaven and earth are gone The law will not lose even the smallest letter or the smallest part of a letter until it has all been done,Na jeri wenye kabila mulunguni na ts'i kukira k'ahana hatha kadono kamwenga ka yo Sheria kandikokira bila kuthimira
A person should obey every command in the law even one that does not seem important Whoever refuses to obey any command and teaches others not to obey it will be the least important in Gods kingdom But whoever obeys the law and teaches others to obey it will be great in Gods kingdom,Na mut'u yoyosi andiyekoseza yo Sheria th'ith'e ya zosi na aafundishe andziye mahende dzazho arizhohenda iye andakala mut'u muthithe sana kahi za uthawali wa mulunguni Ela mut'u andiyethuwa na kuzigwira sheria zosi na kuafundisha andziye ili nao mazithuwe na kuzigwira andakala mut'u mubomu sana kahi za uthawali wa mulunguni
I tell you that you must do better than the teachers of the law and the Pharisees If you are not more pleasing to God than they are you will never enter Gods kingdom,Namwambira kamare kala uhachi wenu k'aundashinda uryahu wa Mafarisayo na alimu a Sheria uthawali wa mulunguni k'amundawangira bule
You have heard that it was said to our people long ago You must not murder anyoneAny person who commits murder will be judged,Mwasikira kukala haho kapindi at'u maambwa Usalage na Ukilaga undahukumiwa

So what if you are offering your gift at the altar and remember that someone has something against you,Kwa vizho ukikala mwenye udzakwendamboza sadaka dzulu za cho kijaja cha kulazhira sadaka kiricho kahi za ro Hekalu na ukumbukire kukala wamuhendera vii mwandziyo
Leave your gift there and go make peace with that person Then come and offer your gift,iriche haho kijajani yo sadaka wende ukapatane na iye mwandziyo kwandza ndo udze uyamboze
If anyone wants to take you to court make friends with them quickly Try to do that before you get to the court If you dont they might hand you over to the judge And the judge will hand you over to a guard who will throw you into jail,Mut'u akikala anakuhirika kotini baha mugamarigizire mo ngirani mana usihohenda vizho andakufisha kwa jaji na iye jaji andakulazha kwa shikari wangizwe ndani

If your right eye makes you sin take it out and throw it away It is better to lose one part of your body than to have your whole body thrown into hell,Dzitsoro ra mukono wa kurya rikikala rinakuhendya uhende dambi rishukule uritsuhe Kwani hatha baha kutsowa kilungo kimwenga kuriko mwiriwo wosi utsufwe Jehanamu
If your right hand makes you sin cut it off and throw it away It is better to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell,Mukonowo wa kurya ukikala unakuhendya uhende dambi utose uutsuhe Kwani ni baha kutsowa kilungo kimwenga kuriko mwiriwo wosi utsufwe Jehanamu
It was also said Any man who divorces his wife must give her a written notice of divorce,Kahi za Sheria ya Musa zhaambwa kaheri kukala Mut'u andehendza kumuricha muchewe naamup'e cheti cha kunyesa kukala madzarichana
But I tell you that any man who divorces his wife except for the problem of sexual sin is causing his wife to be guilty of adultery And whoever marries a divorced woman is guilty of adultery,Ela vivi be namwambira kukala mut'u andemuricha muchewe kwa sababu yoyosi nyingine hasihokala uzindzi anamuhendya ahende dambi ya uzindzi ahalwaho kaheri Na kila andiyemuhala ye muche wa kumbola kwa mulume ni muzindzi

But I tell you when you make a promise dont try to make it stronger with a vow Dont make a vow using the name of heaven because heaven is Gods throne,Ela vivi ninamwambira kukala musiape kamare Musiape dzulu mulunguni kwa kukala kuko ndo Mulungu ariko kahi za kihiche cha uthawali
Dont make a vow using the name of the earth because the earth belongs to himDont make a vow using the name of Jerusalem because it also belongs to him the great King,Na musiape dzulu za ts'i kwani ndo hat'uhe ha kuika magulu Musiapire Jerusalemu mana ni mudzi wa muthawali mubomu
And dont even say that your own head is proof that you will keep your promise You cannot make one hair on your head white or black,Kidza musiape dzulu za kwenu enye kwa kukala k'amudima kuhenda changari ludzere lumwenga lukakala lwiru hedu lwaruhe
Say only yes if you mean yes and say only no if you mean no If you say more than that it is from the Evil One,Kwa vizho ukiamba Ee navikale ndozho jeri Na ukiamba Hatha vikale sozho Zaidhi ya vizho vilaa kwa ye Mui
You have heard that it was said An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth,Mwasikira zhaorwa kukala Mut'u akikubola dzitso nawe mwabole Akikung'ola dzino nawe mung'ole
But I tell you dont fight back against someone who wants to do harm to you If they hit you on the right cheek let them hit the other cheek too,Ela vivi be namwambira kukala mut'u akikuhendera vii usimurihize bule Mut'u akikupiga kofi nyendze ya mukono wa kurya mugaluzire yo nyendze nyingine nayo apige
If anyone wants to sue you in court and take your shirt let them have your coat too,Mut'u akikushithaki akuhoke k'andzuyo ro amba naro murichire
If a soldier forces you to walk with him one milego with him two,Mut'u akikulazimisha mwende mwendo wa maili mwenga enda naye maili mbiri zenye
Give to anyone who asks you for something Dont refuse to give to anyone who wants to borrow from you,Mwandziyo akidzakuvoya kit'u hedu akidzakumala p'asha mup'e usimulashe bule
You have heard that it was said Love your neighborand hate your enemy,Bai Jesu akienderera kufundisha akiamba Mwasikira zhanenwa kukala Muhendze mwandziyo ela hadhuio mumene
But I tell you love your enemies Pray for those who treat you badly,Ela vivi be ninamwambira kukala ahendzeni mahadhui enu na muavoyere ao mamutesao
If you do this you will be children who are truly like your Father in heaven He lets the sun rise for all people whether they are good or bad He sends rain to those who do right and to those who do wrong,ili mukale ana a Babiyenu wa mulunguni Kwani iye nikurihendya dzuware rikaang'alira adzo na ai na kuarehera vula ahachi hamwenga na athiriri
If you love only those who love you why should you get a reward for that Even the tax collectors do that,Kwani mukiahendza kare o mamuhendzao ninwi ni ut'u wani udzo mundokala mudzahenda Kwani hatha athozi a kodi kidza ndo mahendazho
And if you are nice only to your friends you are no better than anyone else Even the people who dont know God are nice to their friends,Kwa vizho ukimulamusa ye nduguyo kare kurya hadhui ye umuzire undakala k'uhendere ut'u usha bule kwani hatha at'u masiomumanya Mulungu nao ndo mahendazho
What I am saying is that you must be perfect just as your Father in heaven is perfect,Kwa vizho kalani akamilifu dza zho Babiyenu wa mulunguni arizho mukamilifu
Be careful When you do something good dont do it in front of others so that they will see you If you do that you will have no reward from your Father in heaven,Jesu akienderera kufundisha akiamba Ukihenda ut'u udzo usinyese at'u kukala udzahenda ut'u udzo kwani ukidzanyesa Babayo wa mulunguni k'andakunosa chochosi
When you give to those who are poor dont announce that you are giving Dont be like the hypocrites When they are in the synagogues and on the streets they blow trumpets before they give so that people will see them They want everyone to praise them The truth is thats all the reward they will get,Usendemwaviza mukiya gonya ukapiga gunda dza vizho at'u a kudzihendya mahendazho mumo ngira-ngira na masinagogini Vizho zhosi manavihenda kwa manamala kulikwa nami namwambira ujeri wenye kukala manoso gao gosi magonya kare kugapata
So when you give to the poor dont let anyone know what you are doing,Ela uchendamup'a kit'u mut'u mukiya be hatha wo mukonowo wa kumots'o kidza usimanye zho mukonowo wa kurya udzizhohenda
Your giving should be done in private Your Father can see what is done in private and he will reward you,Naye Babayo aonaye ga sirini andakunosa
When you pray dont be like the hypocrites They love to stand in the synagogues and on the street corners and pray loudly They want people to see them The truth is thats all the reward they will get,Muvoyaho musikale here at'u a kudzihendya mahendazho Kazi yao ni kuima mathanoni hedu masinagogini ili maonewe ni at'u Bai ujeri wenye at'u dza ao magonya kare kupata mariho gao
But when you pray you should go into your room and close the door Then pray to your Father He is there in that private place He can see what is done in private and he will reward you,Ela bai uvoyaho ngira nyumbani mwako ufunge muryango na umuvoye Babayo ariye sirini naye kwa kukala anaona ga sirini andakup'a zawadiyo
And when you pray dont be like the people who dont know God They say the same things again and again They think that if they say it enough their god will hear them,Muvoyaho musihaye-haye bule here at'u masiomumanya Mulungu mahendazho Kwani o manaona makinena maneno manji ndo Mulungu andaasikira
Dont be like them Your Father knows what you need before you ask him,Hatha musihende vizho bule Kwani ye Babiyenu be anamanya zho mumalazho hatha kabila k'amudzavoya
So this is how you should pray,Bai muvoyaho voyani vivi
We pray that your kingdom will come,Uthawaliwo naudze
Give us the food we need for today,Hup'e vivi rero chakurya chehu cha kuhuthosha
Forgive our sins,Na uhusamehe makosa gehu
Dont let us be tempted,Na usihuhirike majezoni
Yes if you forgive others for the wrongs they do to you then your Father in heaven will also forgive your wrongs,Kwani mukiasamehe at'u mamukosao na Babiyenu wa mulunguni naye andamusamehe makosa genu
But if you dont forgive others then your Father in heaven will not forgive the wrongs you do,Ela kala o at'u mamukoserao k'amundaasamehe ye Babiyenu wa mulunguni naye k'andamusamehe bule
When you fast dont make yourselves look sad like the hypocrites They put a look of suffering on their faces so that people will see they are fasting The truth is thats all the reward they will get,Mufungaho musinyese kukala k'amuna furaha dza zho at'u a kudzihendya mahendazho Kwani o be ni kukundza uso ili mamanywe kukala madzafunga Bai namwambira jeri wenye kukala ao mahokera manoso gao kare
So when you fast wash your face and make yourself look nice,Ela ufungaho oga uso gonya udzihake mafuha
Then no one will know you are fasting except your Father who is with you even in private He can see what is done in private and he will reward you,ili at'u masimanye kukala udzafunga isihokala Babayo ariye sirini Bai kwa kukala iye anaona kahi za siri andakup'a zawadi
Dont save treasures for yourselves here on earth Moths and rust will destroy them And thieves can break into your house and steal them,Musiike akiba zenu kahi za urumwengu uu zikariwa ni p'oho na zikagwira k'anga hedu aivi makadzaziiya
Instead save your treasures in heaven where they cannot be destroyed by moths or rust and where thieves cannot break in and steal them,Hatha bule ikani akiba zenu mulunguni Mana kuko k'akuna p'oho a kuzirya hedu k'anga ya kuzononga-nonga Kidza k'akuna aivi madimao kubanda na kuziiya
Your heart will be where your treasure is,Kwani haho handihokala akibayo ndo handihokala moyowo
The only source of light for the body is the eye If you look at people and want to help them you will be full of light,Bai Jesu waenderera kufundisha akiamba Matso ndo taa ra mwiri Kwa vizho kala matsogo ni madzo mwiriwo wosi nikudzala mulangaza
But if you look at people in a selfish way you will be full of darkness And if the only light you have is really darkness you have the worst kind of darkness,Ela kala matsogo ni makongo mwiriwo wosi nikwadzala kiza Bai kala wo mulangaza ndani yenu udzagaluka kiza kiza kicho be hatha k'akina mwandziwe bule
You cannot serve two masters at the same time You will hate one and love the other or you will be loyal to one and not care about the other You cannot serve God and Moneyat the same time,K'akuna adimaye kuahendera kazi mathajiri airi Kwani akihenda vizho andamuhendza mumwenga ela ye mungine andamumena Mumwenga andamuhendera kaziye t'ot'ot'o ela ye mungine andamuvudhya K'amudima kumuhumikira Mulungu na kuno munahumikira mali
So I tell you dont worry about the things you need to livewhat you will eat drink or wear Life is more important than food and the body is more important than what you put on it,Kwa ut'u uwo wenye bai ninamwambira kukala musihende wasiwasi dzulu za maisha genu na miri yenu kala mundaryani hedu mundanwani hedu mundavalani Samba uzima udzakira chakurya na mwiri nawo udzakira nguwo
Look at the birds They dont plant harvest or save food in barns but your heavenly Father feeds them Dont you know you are worth much more than they are,Munawona wo unyama wa kubururuka K'aurima na k'auvuna ukangiza lutsagani bule kidza Babiyenu wa mulunguni anaurisa H'e seze ninwi murio muna kima kibomu kuukira uwo
You cannot add any time to your life by worrying about it,Ni h'ani kahi zenu adimaye kuhenda wasiwasi hatha akangeza ngaa saa mwenga kahi za maishage
And why do you worry about clothes Look at the wildflowers in the field See how they grow They dont work or make clothes for themselves,Na ni kwanoni muna wasiwasi dzulu za nguwo Hedu lolani go maluwa ga vuweni zho gamerazho K'agahenda kazi hedu hatha kudzifumira nguwo
But I tell you that even Solomon the great and rich king was not dressed as beautifully as one of these flowers,Ela ninamwambira kukala hatha Selemani na ushahawe wosi kidza k'avwaliret'o dza gago maluwa
If God makes what grows in the field so beautiful what do you think he will do for you Its just grassone day its alive and the next day someone throws it into a fire But God cares enough to make it beautiful Surely he will do much more for you Your faith is so small,H'enwi at'u a kuluhiro thithe nwi Kala Mulungu anadima kuzipamba zo nyasi za vuweni ambazo rero zi haha na machero zinatsufwa mohoni zishe h'e seze nwi Samba Mulungu andamuvika zaidhi
Dont worry and say What will we eat or What will we drink or What will we wear,Kwa vizho bai musithapethape kuamba mundaryani mundanwani hedu mundavalani
Thats what those people who dont know God are always thinking about Dont worry because your Father in heaven knows that you need all these things,kwani gago gosi ndo mamalago at'u masiomumanya Mulungu Ela ninwi musithapethape kwani Babiyenu wa mulunguni anamanya kare kukala maut'u gago gosi munagamala naye andamup'a
What you should want most is Gods kingdom and doing what he wants you to do Then he will give you all these other things you need,Ela umaleni uthawali wa kwakwe hamwenga na uhachiwe kwandza na zho vingine zhosi mundangezezwa
So dont worry about tomorrow Each day has enough trouble of its own Tomorrow will have its own worries,Bai kwa ut'u uwo wenye musihende wasiwasi dzulu za maut'u ga machero kwa kukala siku iyo ya machero be indadzihendera wasiwasi yenye Kwani kila siku ina thabuze za kuthosha
Dont judge others and God will not judge you,Bai Jesu waenderera kufundisha akiamba Musiahukumu andziyenu p'ore nanwi mukahukumiwa
If you judge others you will be judged the same way you judge them God will treat you the same way you treat others,Kwani zho mundizhohumira kuahukumira andziyenu ndo vindizhohumirwa kumuhukumira ninwi Cho kipimo mupimiracho andziyenu ndicho mundichopimirwa ninwi
Why do you notice the small piece of dust that is in your friends eye but you dont notice the big piece of wood that is in your own,Mbona unaona kinyalu kiricho dzitsoni mwa mwandziyo ela gogo ririro dzitsoni mwako k'urisikira
Why do you say to your friend Let me take that piece of dust out of your eye Look at yourself first You still have that big piece of wood in your own eye,Vidze unadimadze kumwamba mwandziyo Huma nikwamboze kinyalu na kuno una gogo zima dzitsoni mwako
You are a hypocrite First take the wood out of your own eye Then you will see clearly to get the dust out of your friends eye,Kudzihendyako we Andza kuromboza ro gogo ririro mo dzitsoni mwako kwandza ndo undihoonat'o hatha udime kumboza cho kinyalu kiricho dzitsoni mwa mwandziyo
Dont give something that is holy to dogs They will only turn and hurt you And dont throw your pearls to pigs They will only step on them,Usihale vit'u vieri ukavip'a k'uro kwani mandakugalukira makutharure-tharure Kidza usihale lulu be ukazitsuhira nguluwe kwani mandazizhoga-zhoga
Continue to ask and God will give to you Continue to search and you will find Continue to knock and the door will open for you,Voyani nanwi mundagerwa malani nanwi mundaona bishani nanwi mundasundulirwa
Yes whoever continues to ask will receive Whoever continues to look will find And whoever continues to knock will have the door opened for them,Mana kila avoyaye nikugerwa kila amalaye nikuona na kila abishaye nikusundulirwa
Do any of you have a son If he asked for bread would you give him a rock,Vidze ni h'ani kahi zenu ariye mwanawe akimumala mukahe andamup'a iwe
Or if he asked for a fish would you give him a snake Of course not,Hedu akimuvoya kumba andamup'a nyoka
You people are so bad but you still know how to give good things to your children So surely your heavenly Father will give good things to those who ask him,Bai kala ninwi at'u ai thu kidza munamanya kuap'a ana enu vit'u vidzo h'e seze Babiyenu wa mulunguni ye si zaidhi Samba ye andamup'a vit'u vidzo kila andiyemuvoya
Do for others what you would want them to do for you This is the meaning of the Law of Moses and the teaching of the prophets,Ahendereni at'u osi dza zho muhendzazho mamuhendere ninwi kwani gago ndo mafundisho kahi za Sheria ya Musa na Maoro ga manabii
You can enter true life only through the narrow gate The gate to hell is very wide and there is plenty of room on the road that leads there Many people go that way,Ngirani na muvirya mufufu kwani muvirya wa kwangirira wangamikini ni mwalamu na ngiraye i rahisi na at'u anji ndo mangirirawo
But the gate that opens the way to true life is narrow And the road that leads there is hard to follow Only a few people find it,Muvirya wa kwangirira uzimani ni mufufu na ngiraye nayo ni k'omu na ni achache madimao kuyona ngira ii
Be careful of false prophets They come to you and look gentle like sheep But they are really dangerous like wolves,Bai Jesu waenderera kuafundisha anafundzie akiamba Dzitsundzeni na manabii a ulongo madzihendyao ap'ore here ng'ondzi kudzi mioyoni mwao ni athiriri here mbawa avara
You will know these people because of what they do Good things dont come from people who are bad just as grapes dont come from thornbushes and figs dont come from thorny weeds,Ela vidze unadima kuhuta zabibu kula kwa mihi ya miya Hedu unadima kuhuta t'ini kula kwa mibaruthi Kwa vizho ao nao mundaamanya kwa matunda gao
In the same way every good tree produces good fruit and bad trees produce bad fruit,kwa kukala muhi mudzo nikuzhala matunda madzo na muhi mui nawo nikuzhala matunda mai
A good tree cannot produce bad fruit and a bad tree cannot produce good fruit,Muhi mudzo k'audima kuzhala matunda mai hedu muhi mui ukazhala matunda madzo
Every tree that does not produce good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire,Bai kila muhi usiwozhala matunda madzo nikuthemwa-themwa ukakundywa moho
You will know these false people by what they do,Ndosa namwambira kukala mundaamanya kwa mahendo gao
Not everyone who calls me Lord will enter Gods kingdom The only people who will enter are those who do what my Father in heaven wants,Bai Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Si osi maniambao Bwana Bwana mandangira kahi za uthawali wa mulunguni ela ni kila andiyehenda mahendzo ga Baba ariye dzulu mulunguni
On that last Day many will call me Lord They will say Lord Lord by the power of your name we spoke for God And by your name we forced out demons and did many miracles,Kwani siku iyo ya mwisho anji mandaniamba Bwana samba sino fwamboza unabii na fukimboza p'ep'o kidza fukihenda miujiza minji kwa dzinaro
Then I will tell those people clearly Get away from me you people who do wrong I never knew you,Nami nindaadzigidzya niambe Nihaukirani simumanya bule ninwi ahendi a mai
Whoever hears these teachings of mine and obeys them is like a wise man who built his house on rock,Jesu akienderera kufundisha akiamba Mut'u andiyesirikiza gaga maneno gangu na kugagwira adzahalana na mut'u mumwenga mulachu ariyeaka nyumbaye iweni
It rained hard the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house But it did not fall because it was built on rock,Bai makathi ga vula garihofika vula ikinya gojogojo muretho ukidza gonya luvutho nalo lukikira na haho lukiipiga yo nyumba ela kwa kukala yatsimbirwa musinji iweni k'aigwere bule
Whoever hears these teachings of mine and does not obey them is like a foolish man who built his house on sand,Ela mut'u andesikira maneno gangu na akale k'andagagwira adzahalana na mut'u muzuzu ariyeaka nyumbaye dhangadhini
It rained hard the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house And it fell with a loud crash,Bai makathi ga vula garihofika vula ikinya gojogojo na muretho ukidza gonya luvutho nalo lukikira na haho lukiipiga Bai luvutho lurihopiga iryahu nyumba ikigwa na musindo mubomu
When Jesus finished speaking the people were amazed at his teaching,K'uzhona Jesu arihomarigiza kufundisha maneno gaga ro kundi ra at'u rangalazwa ni go mafundishoge
He did not teach like their teachers of the law He taught like someone who has authority,kwani were k'afundisha dza here alimu a Sheria mafundishazho ela were anafundisha here mut'u mwenye wadimi
Jesus came down from the hill and a large crowd followed him,Vikara Jesu arihokala adzagonya kufundisha watharamuka kula ho dzulu murimani na go makundi ga at'u gakikwatya kumuthuwa
Then a man sick with leprosy came to him The man bowed down before Jesus and said Lord you have the power to heal me if you want,Bai lola hachambola mut'u mumwenga ariyekala ana mahana akidzapiga mavindi ho mbere za Jesu akiamba Bwana ukihendza unadima ukanihoza
Jesus touched the man He said I want to heal you Be healed Immediately the man was healed from his leprosy,Jesu akigoloza mukono akimugut'a akimwamba Ninahendza hola Na haho na haho kare ye mut'u akihola
Then Jesus said to him Dont tell anyone about what happened But go and let the priest look at youAnd offer the gift that Moses commanded for people who are made well This will show everyone that you are healed,Bai Jesu akimwamba Vivi be usizhambire mut'u bule ela enda ukamwanyese mulombi gonya umboze sadaka ya ko kuholako iryahu ariyolagiza Musa ili kila mut'u amanye kukala udzahola jeri
Jesus went to the city of Capernaum When he entered the city an army officer came to him and begged for help,Vikara Jesu arihokala anangira mudzini Kaperinaumu mubomu mumwenga wa jeshi ra Kirumi wamwendera akimuvoya akimwamba
The officer said Lord my servant is very sick at home in bed He cant move his body and has much pain,Bwana muhumiki wangu ni mukongo sana Vilungozhe zhaholoza na analumwa k'azhadimikika
Jesus said to the officer I will go and heal him,Jesu akimudzigidzya akimwamba Nidzasikira nadza nimuhoze
The officer answered Lord I am not good enough for you to come into my house You need only to give the order and my servant will be healed,Ye mubomu wa shikari akimwamba Jesu Bwana mimi sivirya kukala udze wangire nyumbani mwangu ela nena neno thu na muhumiki wangu andahola
I know this because I understand authority There are people who have authority over me and I have soldiers under my authority I tell one soldier Go and he goes I tell another soldier Come and he comes I say to my servant Do this and my servant obeys me,Kwani mimi nami ni ts'ini za abomu angu kidza nina shikari mario ts'ini zangu Nikimwamba mumwenga Enda hat'u hasiku anenda Na yoyosi nindiyemwamba Ndzo anadza Nikimwamba muhumiki wangu Henda ut'u usiku anauhenda
When Jesus heard this he was amazed He said to those who were with him The truth is this man has more faith than anyone I have found even in Israel,Jesu arihomusikira wangalala gonya akinena na o at'u mariokala manamuthuwa akiamba Ninamwambira ujeri sidzangwe kuona mut'u mwenye kuluhiro dza riri hatha kahi za ts'i ya Iziraeli
Many people will come from the east and from the west These people will sit and eat with Abraham Isaac and Jacob in Gods kingdom,Nami namwambira kukala at'u anji mandambola mwambolero wa dzuwa na mutserero wa dzuwa madze makelesi hamwenga na Burahemu na Isaka na Jakobu chakuryani kahi za uthawali wa mulunguni
And those who should have the kingdom will be thrown out They will be thrown outside into the darkness where people will cry and grind their teeth with pain,Ela o mariotengezerwa wo uthawali enye mandatsufwa ko ndze kizani na kuko kundakala na kurira na kwafuna meno
Then Jesus said to the officer Go home Your servant will be healed the way you believed he would Right then his servant was healed,Arihogonya kunena viryahu Jesu wamugalukira ye mubomu wa shikari akimwamba Enda navikale here udzizhokuluhira Na wakathi uwo wenye ye muhumikiwe akihola
Jesus went to Peters house He saw that Peters motherinlaw was in bed with a high fever,Jesu arihombola haho wakwenda hatha nyumbani kwa P'et'ero achendamuthekeza mutsedza wa P'et'ero wa kiche a kitandani ana homa
He touched her hand and the fever left her Then she stood up and began to serve him,Bai Jesu wamugut'a wo mukono na haho henye ro homa rikimuricha hatha akiuka akimuhikirahikira
That evening people brought to Jesus many people who had demons inside them He spoke and the demons left the people He healed all those who were sick,K'uzhona dzulo riro Jesu akireherwa at'u anji mariokala mana p'ep'o O p'ep'o akiachemera makimbola na akihoza akongo osi
So Jesus made clear the full meaning of what Isaiah the prophet said,Bai gaga gahendeka ili garyahu maneno garigonenwa ni nabii Isaya gathimire Kwani Isaya waamba Wagahala manyonge gehu na akigahoza makongo gehu
When Jesus saw the crowd around him he told his followers to go to the other side of the lake,Jesu arihoona ro kundi ra at'u mariokala madzamudengereka akiaamurisha anafundzie kukala mavuke ro ziya mende nyangamo nyingine
Then a teacher of the law came to him and said Teacher I will follow you any place you go,Kabila k'amadzaandza kuvuka mwalimu mumwenga wa Sheria akidzamwamba kukala Mwalimu mimi nindakuthuwa kila undikokwenda
Jesus said to him The foxes have holes to live in The birds have nests But the Son of Man has no place to rest,Ela Jesu akimudzigidzya akimwamba Makala gana p'anga na unyama una vitsunji zhao ela Mwana wa Mudamu k'ana hat'u ha kuika mbavu
Another of Jesus followers said to him Lord I will follow you too but let me go and bury my father first,Kumbola iye mwanafundzi mungine akiamba Bwana niricha nikamuzike baba kwandza be nidze nikuthuwe
But Jesus said to him Follow me and let those who are dead bury their own dead,Ela Jesu akimudzigidzya akimwamba Nithuwa Ariche at'u mariofwa mazike nyufu zao
Jesus got into a boat and his followers went with him,Bai arihogonya kunena Jesu akingira dauni na anafundzie makimuthuwa
After the boat left the shore a very bad storm began on the lake The waves covered the boat But Jesus was sleeping,Marihofika kahikahi ya ro ziya lola kukidza luvutho lukali maimbi gakikala ganamala kuridzaza madzi ro dau Vinakala vizho Jesu ye tha were arere
The followers went to him and woke him They said Lord save us We will drown,Bai o anafundzi marihoona viryahu machendamulamusa Jesu makimwamba Huthizhe Bwana hunahoha
Jesus answered Why are you afraid You dont have enough faith Then he stood up and gave a command to the wind and the water The wind stopped and the lake became very calm,Jesu akiamba H'enwi at'u a kuluhiro thithe mbona mu aoga Akirungarara akiluchemera lo luvutho na go maimbi nazho hu vikihurira
The men were amazed They said What kind of man is this Even the wind and the water obey him,Bai marihoona vizho o anafundzi makingalala zhomu makiamba Ni mut'u ariyedze yuno Hatha luvutho na maimbi kidza nazho vinamusikira
Jesus arrived at the other side of the lake in the country of the Gadarenepeople There two men who had demons inside them came to him They lived in the burial caves and were so dangerous that no one could use the road by those caves,Jesu na anafundzie marihothima yo nyangamo nyingine iriyo kahi za ts'i ya Agadari wadhanwa ni anaalume airi mariokala na p'ep'o At'u ao were makala makaburini kidza were ni avara hatha yo ngira ya kuko were k'aikirirwa kaheri kwa ao
They came to Jesus and shouted What do you want with us Son of God Did you come here to punish us before the right time,Bai marihomona Jesu anadza lola makipiga k'ululu makimwamba Unani naswi h'ewe Mwana wa Mulungu Hedu udzire uhutese kare na wakathi k'audzafika
Near that place there was a large herd of pigs feeding,Vikara ho kimberembere kure nao vichache were hanarisa ribadhi ra nguluwe
The demons begged Jesus If you make us leave these men please send us into that herd of pigs,Bai o p'ep'o makimuvoya Jesu makimwamba Kala undafwamboza furiche fukaangire aryahu nguluwe
Jesus said to them Go So the demons left the men and went into the pigs Then the whole herd of pigs ran down the hill into the lake and all were drowned,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba H'aya endani Bai o p'ep'o makiambola o at'u na machendaangira o nguluwe Lola ro badhi rosi ra nguluwe rikitharamuka malo kula ko ngokani rikivoromoka mo ziyani rikifwa
The men who had the work of caring for the pigs ran away They went into town and told the people everything that happened especially about the men who had the demons,Kuona vizho o arisa makichimbira machangira mumo mudzini makisema gosi garigokala gadzahendeka kwa o at'u mariokala na p'ep'o
Then the whole town went out to see Jesus When the people saw him they begged him to leave their area,Na lola at'u osi kula ko midzini bagabaga makidzamulola Jesu Bai marihomona makimuvoya kukala akulae kuko kwao
Jesus got into a boat and went back across the lake to his own town,Vikara Jesu arihombola kuko wakwera dau akivuka ro ziya akiuya kwao Kaperinaumu
Some people brought to him a man who was paralyzed and was lying on a mat Jesus saw that these people had much faith So he said to the paralyzed man Young man you will be glad to hear this Your sins are forgiven,Arihofika kuko lola at'u makimurehera mut'u wa kuholoza ariyekala arere kitandani mwakwe Bai Jesu arihoona ro kuluhiro rao akimwamba ye mukongo Dzip'e moyo mwanangu dambizo zidzasamehewa
Some of the teachers of the law heard what Jesus said They said to themselves What an insult to God for this man to say that,Jesu arihonena vizho lola angine kahi za o alimu a Sheria makikwatya kunena kimoyo-moyo na kuamba Mut'u yuyu be ananena kufuru
Jesus knew what they were thinking So he said Why are you thinking such evil thoughts,Ela Jesu akimanya maazo gao na akiamba Mbona muna maazo mai zho
The Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins But how can I prove this to you Maybe you are thinking it was easy for me to say Your sins are forgiven Theres no proof that it really happened But what if I say to the man Stand up and walk Then you will be able to see that I really have this power So Jesus said to the paralyzed man Stand up Take your mat and go home,Kwani virizho rahisi ni hizho Ni kumwamba mut'u Dambizo zidzasamehewa hedu ni kumwamba Uka wanende
The man stood up and went home,H'aya manyani bai kukala Mwana wa Mudamu ana wadimi wa kusamehe dambi haha dhuniani Arihogonya kunena vizho akimwamba ye mut'u wa kuholoza Uka uhale kitandacho wende kwenu
The people saw this and they were amazed They praised God for letting someone have such power,Na ye mut'u akiuka achenda kwao
When Jesus was leaving he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the place for collecting taxes Jesus said to him Follow me So he got up and followed Jesus,Vikara aryahu at'u marihomona viryahu makiogoha zhomu na makimulika Mulungu kwa kuap'a anadamu wadimi dza uwo
Jesus ate dinner at Matthews house Many tax collectors and others with bad reputations came and ate with him and his followers,Vikara Jesu arihombola haho wakwendamona mut'u ariyekala anaifwa Math'ayo Mut'u yuyu were akelesi kahi za ofisi ya kodi Bai Jesu arihomona akimwamba Nithuwa Math'ayo akirungarara akimuthuwa
The Pharisees saw that Jesus was eating with these people They asked his followers Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and other sinners,Badaye Jesu na anafundzie makwendarya chakurya nyumbani kwa Math'ayo Na lola athozi a kodi anji na at'u angine mariokala manaonewa kukala ni enye dambi makudzarya hamwenga nao
Jesus heard them say this So he said to them It is the sick people who need a doctor not those who are healthy,Vikara Mafarisayo marihoona viryahu makiauza o anafundzie Mbona ye mwalimu wenu anarya chakurya na athozi a kodi hamwenga na enye dambi
You need to go and learn what this Scripture means I dont want animal sacrifices I want you to show kindness to peopleI did not come to invite good people I came to invite sinners,Jesu arihosikira vizho akiamba Mukongo nde mwenye haja na muganga ela muzima k'ana haja na muganga bule
Then the followers of John came to Jesus and said We and the Pharisees fast often but your followers dont ever fast Why,Hedu garya Maoro gaambago Sadaka zenu sizendzi nimalazo ni mbazi manaye ni noni H'aya kagashomeni mugamanye manaye Mimi nakudzaaiha enye dambi sidzireaiha enye hachi
Jesus answered At a wedding the friends of the bridegroom are not sad while he is with them They cannot fast then But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them Then they will fast,Siku mwenga anafundzi a Johana makwenda kwa Jesu machendamuza makimwamba Ni kwanoni sino na Mafarisayo hunafunga ela anafundzio o k'amafunga
When someone sews a patch over a hole in an old coat they never use a piece of cloth that has not already been shrunk If they do the patch will shrink and pull away from the coat Then the hole will be worse,Bai Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Vidze ajeni a harusini nikukala na sumazi wakathi bwana harusi manaye haho Ela siku zinadza ambazo ye bwana harusi andauswa kahikahi zao na haho mandafunga
Also people never pour new wine into old wineskins They would break the wine would spill out and the wineskins would be ruined People always put new wine into new wineskins which wont break and the wine stays good,K'ahana mut'u adimaye kuhala nguwo ya kapindi akayangiza kiraka kisha mana cho kiraka kindayamola yo nguwo chambole na kindaihendya ikale na t'undu bomu kukira iyo ya chaho
While Jesus was still talking a leader of the synagogue came to him The leader bowed down before him and said My daughter has just died But if you will come and touch her with your hand she will live again,Kidza divai mbisha k'aingizwa kahi za viriba zha kapindi Kwani ikingizwa indavipashula zho viriba imwagike Bai zho viriba vindakala vidzanongeka na yo divai nayo indakala idzamwagika Ela divai mbisha ingizwa kahi za viriba visha na k'ahana kindichonongeka
So Jesus and his followers went with the man,Bai Jesu arihokala achere kunena lola mubomu mumwenga wa Kiyahudi akidzamupigira mavindi akimwamba Bwana musichana wangu ala kufwani hinde ukamuikire mukono naye andafufuka
On the way there was a woman who had been bleeding for twelve years She came close behind Jesus and touched the bottom of his coat,Jesu arihosikira vizho iye hamwenga na anafundzie makiuka makimuthuwa
She was thinking If I can touch his coat I will be healed,Vikara lola kahi za ro kundi ra at'u mwere muna mwanamuche mumwenga ariyekala adzakala mukongo wa kumbola milatso kwa miaka kumi na miri Bai mwanamuche yuyahu wamuthuwa Jesu ko nyuma kuno ananena kimoyo-moyo na kuamba Nikigut'a ro valore thu nindahola K'ona akigut'a wo mutsa wa ro valore
Jesus turned and saw the woman He said Be happy dear woman You are made well because you believed Then the woman was healed,Bai ye mwanamuche arihogut'a ro valo Jesu akigaluka na arihomona akimwamba Dzip'e moyo mwanangu kuluhiro ra kwako ridzakuhoza Na ye mwanamuche akihola haho na haho
Jesus continued going with the Jewish leader and went into the leaders house He saw people there who make music for funerals And he saw a crowd of people crying loudly,Jesu arihofika ko nyumbani kwa ye mubomu wa sinagogi wakwendathekeza at'u anji Arya manarira na arya manapiga vivoti Bai akiamboza mumo nyumbani akiamba
Jesus said Go away The girl is not dead She is only sleeping But the people laughed at him,Mbolani kwani ye musichana k'afwere bule arere thu Kusikira vizho at'u makimutseka
After the people were put out of the house Jesus went into the girls room He held the girls hand and the girl stood up,Bai aryahu at'u marihokala madzagonya kumbola Jesu achangira ndani na achendamugwira mukono iye mufwa naye haho na haho kare akiuka
The news about this spread all around the area,Na lola uvoro uwo ukitsamuka lalo zima
As Jesus was going away from there two blind men followed him They said loudly Show kindness to us Son of David,Vikara Jesu arihokala anambola kuko wathuwiwa ni anaalume airi vipofu makiluta mimiro yao makimwamba Mwana wa Daudi huonere mbazi
Jesus went inside and the blind men went with him He asked them Do you believe that I am able to make you see again They answered Yes Lord we believe,Bai Jesu wathuwa kwenda hatha anangira nyumbani vipofu nao thia Akiauza akiamba Vidze munakuluhira kukala nadima kumuhoza Makiamba Ee funakuluhira Bwana
Then Jesus touched their eyes and said You believe that I can make you see again so it will happen,Bai Jesu akiagut'a go matso gonya akiamba H'aya navikale here mukuluhirazho
Then the men were able to see Jesus gave them a strong warning He said Dont tell anyone about this,Na lola arihonena vizho thu matso ga o vipofu gakigunuka na makikwatya kuona Bai Jesu akiakokot'era zhomu zhenye kukala masizhambire mut'u
But they left and spread the news about Jesus all around that area,Ela marihouka haho machendavitsamusa kahi za lalo zima
As these two men were leaving some people brought another man to Jesus This man could not talk because he had a demon inside him,Vikara marihokala makuukani lola Jesu akireherwa mut'u ariyekala wapagawa ni p'ep'o Mut'u yuyu were ni bwibwi
Jesus forced the demon out and the man was able to talk The people were amazed and said We have never seen anything like this in Israel,Bai Jesu akimwamboza ye p'ep'o na ye bwibwi akikwatya kunena Bai zhaangalaza at'u anji sana hatha makikwatya kunena h'akiyao na kuamba Zho zha bwibwi kunena k'ahudzazhona bule kahi za ts'i ya Iziraeli
But the Pharisees said The ruler of demons is the one that gives him power to force demons out,Ela Mafarisayo makiamba Yuyu anamboza p'ep'o kwa kuhumira nguvu za mubomu wa p'ep'o
Jesus traveled through all the towns and villages He taught in their synagogues and told people the Good News about Gods kingdom He healed all kinds of diseases and sicknesses,Bai Jesu wadengereka kurya na kurya kahi za midzi mibomu na mithithe kufundisha kahi za masinagogi na kuhubiri Uvoro Udzo wa uthawali wa mulunguni na kuhoza akongo na anyonge a kila namuna
Jesus saw the many people and felt sorry for them because they were worried and helplesslike sheep without a shepherd to lead them,Ela arihoona go makundi ga at'u waalola na akiaonera mbazi kwa viryahu marizhokala manasirima na k'amamanya mahendedze here ng'ondzi zisizo na murisa
Jesus said to his followers There is such a big harvest of people to bring in But there are only a few workers to help harvest them,Bai akiagalukira anafundzie akiambira Mavuno ni manji ela ahendzi a kazi ni achache
God owns the harvest Ask him to send more workers to help gather his harvest,Kwa vizho bai muvoyeni ye Bwana wa mavuno ahume ahendzi a kazi madze mavune
When Jesus finished these instructions for his twelve followers he left there He went to the towns in Galilee to teach the people and tell them Gods message,Vikara Jesu arihokala adzagonya kualagiza o anafundzie kumi na airi akihauka haryahu arihokala achangira kahi za midzi mingine ya Galilaya kuhubiri na kufundisha kuko
When John was in prison he heard about the things that were happeningthings the Messiah would do So he sent some of his followers to Jesus,Wakathi uryahu Johana Mubat'izaji were a jela Bai arihosikira gago maut'u gosi arigokala akigahenda ye Masihi wahuma anafundzie makamuze Jesu mamwambe
They asked him Are you the one we have been expecting or should we wait for someone else,Vidze we ndiwe yuyahu huriyekala hunamuthariza hedu hutharize mungine
Jesus answered Go tell John what you have heard and seen,K'uzhona marihouza viryahu Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Uyani mukamwambire Johana gago musikirago na kugaona
The blind can see The crippled can walk People with leprosy are healed The deaf can hear The dead are brought back to life And the Good News is being told to the poor,At'u masoona manaona vidende mananenda akongo a mahana manahozwa at'u masio na masikiro manasikira nyufu zinafufulwa na masikini manahubiriwa Uvoro Udzo
Great blessings belong to those who dont have a problem accepting me,Na baha iye ariye k'andakala na tashwishi dzulu zangu
When Johns followers left Jesus began talking to the people about John He said What did you people go out to the desert to see Someone who is weak like a stem of grassblowing in the wind,Bai aryahu anafundzi a Johana marihokala makuukani Jesu akigalukira ro kundi ra at'u akinena dzulu za Johana akiamba Harya murihokwenda kurya nyika were mudzakwendalolani Vidze were mudzakwendalola kirungurungu kinafuswa-fuswa ni lupeho
Really what did you expect to see Someone dressed in fine clothes Of course not People who wear fine clothes are all in kings palaces,Hedu mwakwendalola mut'u adzevala nguwo mbidzo Hatha mavalao nguwo mbidzo k'amakala nyika bule makala kahi za madzumba ga athawali
So what did you go out to see A prophet Yes John is a prophet But I tell you he is more than that,H'aya nambirani bai cho murichokwendalola ko nyika Vidze mwakwendamulola nabii Ee ni vizho mwakwendamulola nabii Nami ninamwambira kamare kukala mwakwendamulola mut'u ariye ni zaidhi ya nabii
This Scripture was written about him,Kwani iye Johana ndiye ariyenenwa kahi za Maoro kukala Lola ninahuma mujumbe wangu mberezo andiyekutengezera ngirayo kimbere
The truth is that John the Baptizer is greater than anyone who has ever come into this world But even the least important person in Gods kingdom is greater than John,Nami namwambira kamare kukala haha urumwenguni be k'ahadzazhalwa mut'u mubomu kumukira Johana ela ye muthithe mwenye kamare kahi za uthawali wa mulunguni be ni mubomu kumukira ye Johana
Since the time John the Baptizer came until now Gods kingdom has been going forward stronglyAnd people have been trying to take control of it by force,Na hangu Johana aandze kuhubiri na kubat'iza at'u wo uthawali wa mulunguni be udzakala ukipigwa viha na ni o masitao ndo mandiowangira kwa nguvu
Before John came the Law of Moses and all the prophets told about the things that would happen,Sheria za Musa na mafundisho ga manabii osi hatha kumufikira Johana ganena dzulu za wo uthawali
And if you believe what they said then John is ElijahHe is the one they said would come,Kwa vizho ahendzaye kukuluhira naakuluhire kukala Johana nde iye Elija ariyekala anatharizwa
You people who hear me listen,Mwenye masikiro naasikire
What can I say about the people who live today What are they like The people today are like children sitting in the marketplace One group of children calls to the other group,Bai Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Kizhazi kino be tha ndakihalanisha na noni mino Kidzahalana na ahoho makeresio sokoni Asena ao manaamba
We played flute music for you,Fudzamupigira vivoti ela k'amuvinire hudzamuimbira wira wa hanga ela k'amuririre kamare
Why do I say people are like that Because John came not eating like other people or drinking wine and people say He has a demon inside him,Johana wakudza haha akikala k'arya na k'anwa mukiamba kukala ana p'ep'o
The Son of Man came eating and drinking and people say Look at him He eats too much and drinks too much wine Hes a friend of tax collectors and other sinners But wisdom is shown to be right by what it does,Vino Mwana wa Mudamu wakudza anarya na ananwa munamwamba kukala adzatona kidza ni murevi na musena wa athozi a kodi na enye dambi angine Ela ulachu wa Mulungu unamanywa ni wa ujeri kukirira kwa mahendo ga ao maukubalio
Then Jesus criticized the cities where he did most of his miracles He criticized these cities because the people there did not change their lives and stop sinning,Vikara Jesu akikwatya kuidumulira iryahu midzi ariyo were wakwendahenda miujiza mibomu-mibomu ela at'u a kuko hatha bada ya kuona miujiza iyo makikahala kuthubu vizho
Jesus said It will be bad for you Chorazin It will be bad for you Bethsaida I did many miracles in you If these same miracles had happened in Tyre and Sidon the people there would have changed their lives a long time ago They would have worn sackcloth and put ashes on themselves to show that they were sorry for their sins,Bai waamba Shauri yenu ninwi at'u a Korazini na Beth'isaida Kwani kala yo miujiza niriyoihenda ko kwenu be naihenda kahi za midzi ya Tiro na Sidoni be o andziyenu ngere mavala nguwo za magunia na kukala ivuni kapindi kunyesa kuthubu kwao
But I tell you on the day of judgment it will be worse for you than for Tyre and Sidon,Nami vivi namwambira kamare kukala yo siku ya hukumu vindakala baha o at'u a Tiro na Sidoni kaheri kuriko ninwi
And you Capernaum will you be lifted up to heaven No You will be thrown down to the place of death I did many miracles in you If these same miracles had happened in Sodom the people there would have stopped sinning and it would still be a city today,Nwi at'u a Kaperinaumu nanwi munaona mundanulwa hatha mulunguni Hatha bule Ninwi mundatserezwa hatha kuzimu Kwani kala yo miujiza iriyohendwa mo mudzini mwenu be yahendwa kahi za mudzi wa Sodomu ngere Sodomu ichereko hatha rero
But I tell you it will be worse for you in the day of judgment than for Sodom,Nanwi vivi namwambira kamare kukala haho siku ya hukumu be vindakala vii-vii zhomu kwenu ninwi kuriko kwa at'u a Sodomu
Then Jesus said I praise you Father Lord of heaven and earth I am thankful that you have hidden these things from those who are so wise and so smart But you have shown them to people who are like little children,K'uzhona wakathi uwo vizho Jesu akiamba Nakulazhira muvera h'ewe Baba Bwana wa dzulu na ts'i kwa kukala maut'u gaga wagafitsa alachu na enye akili ukigagunulira madanga ga ana
Yes Father you did this because its what you really wanted to do,Ni karakara Baba kwa kukala vizho were ndo urizhohendza
My Father has given me everything No one knows the Sononly the Father knows the Son And no one knows the Fatheronly the Son knows the Father And the only people who will know about the Father are those the Son chooses to tell,Bai arihogonya kulazha muvera akiagalukira o at'u akiamba Maut'u gosini gaikwa mikononi mwangu ni Baba K'akuna mut'u amumanyaye ye Mwana asihokala ye Baba na k'akuna mut'u amumanyaye ye Baba asihokala ye Mwana na aryahu ambao ye Mwana anahendza kuang'azira ye Baba
Come to me all of you who are tired from the heavy burden you have been forced to carry I will give you rest,Ndzoni kwangu ninwi nyosi musirimao na murio mudzaremererwa ni mizigo nami nindamuoyeza
Accept my teachingLearn from me I am gentle and humble in spirit And you will be able to get some rest,Rivaleni gogo rangu mudzifundishe kwangu kwa kukala mimi ni mup'eho na mup'ore nanwi mundaoya kamare kahi za maroho genu
Yes the teaching that I ask you to accept is easy The load I give you to carry is light,Kwani gogo rangu ni shushu na muzigo wangu k'auremerera
About that same time Jesus was walking through the fields of grain on a Sabbath day His followers were with him and they were hungry So they began to pick the grain and eat it,Vikara makathi garyahu Jesu hamwenga na anafundzie makala manakira kahikahi za minda ya ngano siku ya Sabato Bai marihokala makukirani o anafundzie makikala manasikira ndzala kwa vizho makikwatya kuhuta masuche ga ngano na kwafuna
The Pharisees saw this They said to Jesus Look Your followers are doing something that is against the law to do on the Sabbath day,Mafarisayo marihoona viryahu makimwamba Lola O anafundzio manahenda ut'u uriwo k'auhendwa siku ya Sabato
Jesus said to them You have read what David did when he and those with him were hungry,Bai Jesu arihosikira vizho akiadzigidzya o Mafarisayo akiamba Muthawali Daudi wahendadze harya arihokala iye na o at'u ariokala nao mana ndzala Hedu k'amudzavishoma
David went into Gods house He and those with him ate the bread that was offered to God It was against the law for David or those with him to eat that bread Only the priests were allowed to eat it,Samba wangira kahi za nyumba ya Mulungu na akirya yo mikahe ya sadaka iriyo kulengana na Sheria iye hedu hatha ao ariokala nao k'amavirya kuirya hasihokala o alombi thu-thu-thu
And you have read in the Law of Moses that on every Sabbath day the priests at the Temple break the law about the Sabbath day But they are not wrong for doing that,H'aya zho mbai yo Sheria ya Musa samba inaamba kukala alombi manabanda Sheria ya Sabato kila siku ya Sabato kahi za Hekalu kidza k'amana makosa gogosi Zho nazho k'amudzavishoma
I tell you that there is something here that is greater than the Temple,Vivi be manyani kukala haha hana mut'u mubomu kukira riro Hekalu
The Scriptures say I dont want animal sacrifices I want you to show kindness to peopleYou dont really know what that means If you understood it you would not judge those who have done nothing wrong,Na kala munamanya mana ya go Maoro gaambago kukala Sadaka zenu sizendzi nimalazo ni mbazi k'amungaahukumire at'u mario k'amana makosa
The Son of Man is Lord over the Sabbath day,Kwani Mwana wa Mudamu nde Bwana wa yo siku ya Sabato
Jesus went from there to their synagogue,Bai arihombola haho Jesu wakwendangira kahi za ro sinagogi rao
In the synagogue there was a man with a crippled hand Some Jews there were looking for a reason to accuse Jesus of doing wrong So they asked him Is it right to heal on the Sabbath day,Na lola muryahu sinagogini were muna mut'u mwenye mukono wa kuholoza Na kwa kukala o Mafarisayo were manamala chausa cha kumushithakira Jesu mamuza makimwamba Vidze ni karakara kumuhoza mut'u siku ya Sabato
Jesus answered If any of you has a sheep and it falls into a ditch on the Sabbath day you will take the sheep and help it out of the ditch,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Ni h'ani kahi zenu ariye ng'ondziye ikivoromoka winani siku ya Sabato andairicha mumo kwa kukala ni siku ya Sabato
Surely a man is more important than a sheep So it is right to do good on the Sabbath day,Vidze mudamu anadima kulinganishwa na ng'ondzi Kwa vizho bai ni karakara kamare kisheria kuhenda madzo siku ya Sabato
Then Jesus said to the man with the crippled hand Hold out your hand The man held out his hand and it became well again the same as the other hand,Kugonya kunena vizho akimwambira ye mut'u Goloza wo mukonowo hedu Naye arihogoloza thu ukiuyat'o na ukikala dza uwo mungine
But the Pharisees left and made plans to kill Jesus,Vikara o Mafarisayo marihoona kukala Jesu adzamuhoza ye mut'u machambola machendapanga zho mandizhomwalaga Jesu
Jesus knew what the Pharisees were planning So he left that place and many people followed him He healed all who were sick,Bai Jesu arihoipata p'eho yo njama yao akihauka achenda kungine Ela hamwenga na vizho at'u anji mamuthuwa na akiahoza at'u osi mariokala ni akongo
but he warned them not to tell others who he was,Ela akiakokot'era kukala masimuhendye akamanywa iye ni h'ani
This was to give full meaning to what Isaiah the prophet said when he spoke for God,Bai wahenda vivi ili garyahu maneno garigonenwa ni nabii Isaya gathimire Kwani Isaya waamba
Here is my servant,Lolani ye muhumiki wangu niriyemutsagula
He will not argue or shout,K'andapigana k'anani na at'u hedu kupiga k'ululu
He will not break off even a bent stem of grass,At'u mario k'amana nguvu
All people will hope in him,Na kukirira na dzinare
Then some people brought a man to Jesus This man was blind and could not talk because he had a demon inside him Jesus healed the man and he could talk and see,Vikara kahi za wakathi uwo Jesu akireherwa mut'u ariyekala wapagawa ni p'ep'o Mut'u yuyu were ni kipofu na ni bwibwi Ela arihorefwa kwa Jesu Jesu akimuhoza na ye bwibwi akikwatya kuona na kunena
All the people were amazed at what Jesus did They said Maybe he is the promised Son of David,Bai aryahu at'u marihoona viryahu osi makingalala zhomu makiamba Yuno ela si iye Mwana wa Daudi
When the Pharisees heard this they said This man uses the power of Satanto force demons out of people Satan is the ruler of demons,Ela Mafarisayo marihosikira vizho makiamba Hatha bule Yuyu anamboza p'ep'o kwa kuhumira nguvu za Belizebuli mubomu wa p'ep'o
Jesus knew what the Pharisees were thinking So he said to them Every kingdom that fights against itself will be destroyed And every city or family that is divided against itself will not survive,Ela Jesu akigamanya go maazo gao na akiambira Ts'i yoyosi o at'ue makidzigazha makundi-makundi gahehanago be ts'i iyo indanongeka Na mudzi wowosi hedu hatha nyumba yoyosi at'u makikala k'amagwirana milomo mudzi uwo hedu nyumba iyo k'aindatoa
So if Satan forces out his own demonsthen he is fighting against himself and his kingdom will not survive,Na Shethani akimboza Shethani mwandziwe andakala adzadzigazha Vidze uthawaliwe undatoa jeri
You say that I use the power of Satan to force out demons If that is true then what power do your people use when they force out demons So your own people will prove that you are wrong,Chamba mino namboza p'ep'o kwa nguvu za Belizebuli o afuasi enu o manaamboza kwa nguvu za h'ani Bai ao ndo mandiomuhukumu ninwi
But I use the power of Gods Spirit to force out demons and this shows that Gods kingdom has come to you,Ela nikimboza p'ep'o kwa Roho wa Mulungu be wo uthawali wa Mulungu udzamudzirira
Whoever wants to enter a strong mans house and steal his things must first tie him up Then they can steal the things from his house,Kwani k'akuna mut'u adimaye kungira kahi za nyumba ya mut'u mwenye nguvu na kumuhoka vit'uzhe hasiho kumufunga ye mwenye kwandza ndo adime kumuhoka zho vit'uzhe
Whoever is not with me is against me And anyone who does not work with me is working against me,Kila mut'u ariye k'ahamwenga nami a kinyume nami Na iye ariye k'anaviza kukundzumanya hamwenga kaziye ni kutsamula
So I tell you people can be forgiven for every sinful thing they do and for every bad thing they say against God But anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven,Kwa ut'u uwo wenye bai ninamwambira kamare kukala kila dambi na kila kufuru indasamehewa ela kufuru dzulu za Roho Mweri k'aindasamehewa bule
You can even speak against the Son of Man and be forgiven But anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will never be forgivennot now or in the future,Mut'u andiyenena ut'u wowosi kinyume cha Mwana wa Mudamu andasamehewa Ela kila andiyenena ut'u wowosi kinyume cha Roho Mweri k'andasamehewa ng'o kahi za urumwengu uu na hatha kahi za urumwengu udzawo
If you want good fruit you must make the tree good If your tree is not good it will have bad fruit A tree is known by the kind of fruit it produces,Kila muhi umanyikana kwa gago matundage uzhalago Muhi ukiutengezerat'o undazhala matunda madzo Ela kala k'aundatengezerwat'o undazhala matunda mai-mai
You snakes You are so evil How can you say anything good What people say with their mouths comes from what fills their hearts,H'enwi kizhazi cha nyoka Munadimadze kunena madzo kuno mioyo yenu i thele uthiriri Mana kanwa ka mut'u kanena garyahu gadzigowadzala moyowe
Those who are good have good things saved in their hearts Thats why they say good things But those who are evil have hearts full of evil and thats why they say things that are evil,Mut'u mudzo nikuzhala madzo kula kahi za akibaye mbidzo Na mut'u mui naye nikuzhala mai kula kahi za akibaye mbii
I tell you that everyone will have to answer for all the careless things they have said This will happen on the day of judgment,Ela mino namwambira kukala kila neno risirofwaha andironena mut'u andakudza arisemet'o haho siku ya hukumu
Your words will be used to judge you What you have said will show whether you are right or whether you are guilty,Kwani siku iyo mulomowo mwenye ndo undokuhendya ugerwe hachi hedu uhukumiwe
Then some of the Pharisees and teachers of the law answered Jesus They said Teacher we want to see you do a miracle as a sign from God,Vikara Jesu arihogonya kunena vizho badhi ra Mafarisayo na alimu a Sheria makimwamba Mwalimu funamala fuone muujiza kula kwako
Jesus answered Evil and sinful people are the ones who want to see a miracle as a sign But no miracle will be done to prove anything to them The only sign will be the miracle that happened to the prophet Jonah,Jesu akiamba Kizhazi kithiriri kisokuluhira Kinamala kwanyeswa muvano bai k'akindanyeswa muvano wowosi isihokala uryahu wa nabii Jona h'akeye
Jonah was in the stomach of the big fish for three days and three nights In the same way the Son of Man will be in the grave three days and three nights,Na here Jona arizhomizwa ni nyangumi na akikala ndanini mwakwe siku t'ahu usiku na mutsana Mwana wa Mudamu naye andakala mitsangani siku t'ahu usiku na mutsana
On the judgment day you people who live now will be compared with the people from Ninevehand they will be witnesses who show how guilty you are Why do I say this Because when Jonah preached to those people they changed their lives And you are listening to someone greater than Jonah but you refuse to change,Nami namwambira kukala siku iryahu ya hukumu at'u a mudzi wa Ninawi mandarungarara mamupige ulongo kwa kukala marihosikira mahubiri ga Jona mathubu dambi zao Na lola vivi thiyuno mut'u mubomu kumukira Jona
On the judgment day you people who live now will also be compared with the Queen of the Southand she will be a witness who shows how guilty you are I say this because she traveled from far far away to listen to Solomons wise teaching And I tell you that someone greater than Solomon is right here but you wont listen,H'aya zho mbai siku iyo ya hukumu vizho muthawali muche wa ts'i ya kwa Mwaka andarungarara amupige ulongo ninwi kwa kukala iye wambola kure sana akidza ts'i ya Iziraeli kudzasirikiza ulachu wa Selemani Vino lola thiyuno mut'u mulachu kumukira Selemani ela k'amumusirikiza
When an evil spirit comes out of a person it travels through dry places looking for a place to rest but it finds none,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba P'ep'o amwambolaho mut'u nikundengereka kut'u kuriko k'akuna madzi ili apate hat'u ha kuoya ela akikosa
So it says I will go back to the home I left When it comes back it finds that home still empty It is all neat and clean,nikunena kimoyo-moyo akaamba Mut'u mimi nindauya iryahu nyumba niriyombola Bai auyaho nikuithekeza yo nyumba ni t'uhu yasherwat'o na ikipangwat'o
Then the evil spirit goes out and brings seven other spirits more evil than itself They all go and live there and that person has even more trouble than before It is the same way with the evil people who live today,Vikara aonaho vizho nikwendahala p'ep'o angine afungahe ai kumukira ye mwenye akadza nao makadzangira makatoa mumo Bai hali ya mut'u iye ni kukala mbii-mbii hatha kukira zho arizhokala chaho Na vizho ndo vindizhokala kwa kizhazi kiki kithiriri
While Jesus was talking to the people his mother and brothers stood outside They wanted to talk to him,Vikara Jesu arihokala achere kunena na riryahu kundi ra at'u lola mameye na nduguze Jesu a kilume poo Makiima ko ndze makikala manamala kunena naye
Someone told him Your mother and brothers are waiting for you outside They want to talk to you,Bai mut'u mumwenga akimwamba Jesu Mameyo na nduguzo manakumala ko ndze
Jesus answered Who is my mother Who are my brothers,Jesu arihosikira vizho akiuza M'ama na ndugu zangu ni hio
Then he pointed to his followers and said See These people are my mother and my brothers,Arihouza vizho akienderera kunena kuno anaaloha o anafundzie akiamba Aa be ndo m'ama na ndo ndugu zangu
Yes anyone who does what my Father in heaven wants is my true brother and sister and mother,Kwani kila ahendaye mahendzo ga Baba ariye mulunguni nde m'ama na nde ndugu yangu
That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the lake,Bai siku iyo vizho Jesu achambola mumo nyumbani arimokala na achendakelesi k'anda-k'anda ya ro ziya ra Galilaya
A large crowd gathered around him So he got into a boat and sat down All the people stayed on the shore,K'uzhona arihokwendakelesi kuko rikundi ribomu ra at'u rikimudzalira hatha akiona ni baha akwere dauni akelesi mumo Bai wakelesi dauni kuno at'u angine osi makiima ko k'anda-k'anda ya ro ziya
Then Jesus used stories to teach them many things He told them this story,Akiambira maut'u manji kwa kuhumira mafumbo Akiamba Mut'u mumwenga wauka kwendamwaga-mwaga mbeyu mundani kwakwe
While he was scattering the seed some of it fell by the road The birds came and ate all that seed,Vikara arihokala akuzimwagani-mwagani mbeyu nyingine zikigwa k'anda-k'anda ya ngira Unyama ukidzazit'ot'a
Other seed fell on rocky ground where there was not enough dirt It grew very fast there because the soil was not deep,Nyingine zikigwa kahi za mutsanga wa mawe-mawe harihokala hana mutsanga muchache Bai zikimera malo-malo kwa kukala were hana mutsanga muchache
But when the sun rose it burned the plants The plants died because they did not have deep roots,Ela zirihopigwa ni dzuwa thu zikinyala kare kwa kukala were k'azina miziji ya kwenda kure
Some other seed fell among thorny weeds The weeds grew and stopped the good plants from growing,Mbeyu nyingine zikigwa miyani Zirihomera miya iryahu ikikula na ikizizia-zia hatha k'azipatire nafasi ya kumbola ndze bule
But some of the seed fell on good ground There it grew and made grain Some plants made 100 times more grain some 60 times more and some 30 times more,Ela mbeyu nyingine zo zikigwa kahi za mutsanga mudzo na zikizhalat'o sana Nyingine zazhala gana-gana nyingine mirongo mihandahu na nyingine zo zikizhala mirongo mihahu
You people who hear me listen,Arihogonya kunena viryahu akiamba Mwenye masikiro naasikire
The followers came to Jesus and asked Why do you use these stories to teach the people,Bai ariholaa haho o anafundzie makimuza makimwamba Kwanoni unahendza kuhumira mafumbo kala unanena na o at'u
Jesus answered Only you can know the secret truths about Gods kingdom Those other people cannot know these secret truths,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Ninahenda vizho kwa kukala ninwi mwajaliwa kumanya siri za uthawali wa mulunguni ela aryahu k'amajaliwirwe bule
The people who have some understanding will be given more And they will have even more than they need But those who do not have much understanding will lose even the little understanding that they have,Kwani kila ariye nacho andangezwa akale na vinji ela ariye k'ana kit'u kamare hatha cho kichache aricho nacho kidza andakihokwa
This is why I use these stories to teach the people They see but they dont really see They hear but they dont really hear or understand,At'u aryahu ninanena nao kwa mafumbo kwa kukala manalola ela k'amaona bule kidza manasikiza ela k'amasikira hedu kuelewa
So they show that what Isaiah said about them is true,Na garyahu maneno garigonenwa ni nabii Isaya haho kapindi vivi gadzathimira kwao Kwani Isaya wanena akiamba
Yes the minds of these people are now closed,Mana mioyo ya at'u aa idzakala mikomu
But God has blessed you You understand what you see with your eyes And you understand what you hear with your ears,Baha ninwi kwani masikiro genu ganasikira na matso genu ganaona
I can assure you many prophets and godly people wanted to see what you now see But they did not see it And many prophets and godly people wanted to hear what you now hear But they did not hear it,Kwani be namwambira kamare kukala manabii anji na at'u ahachi angine mathamani kuona gaga mugaonago ela k'amagaonere kidza mathamani masikire gago mugasikirago ela k'amagasikirire bule
So listen to the meaning of that story about the farmer,Jesu akienderera kunena na anafundzie akiamba Vikara sirikizani nimwambire mana ya ro fumbo ra mulayi
What about the seed that fell by the path That is like the people who hear the teaching about Gods kingdom but do not understand it The Evil One comes and takes away what was planted in their hearts,Kila mut'u ariye akisikira neno ra Mulungu k'arielewa ye Mui nikudza na kurusa ho moyoni ririholaywa Bai mut'u dza iye nde iryahu mbeyu iriyogwa haryahu k'anda-k'anda ya ngira
And what about the seed that fell on rocky ground That is like the people who hear the teaching and quickly and gladly accept it,Ziryahu mbeyu zirizogwa mutsanga wa mawe-mawe ni mut'u ariye akisikira neno thu anarihokera kare mara mwenga kidza anarihokera na raha
But they do not let the teaching go deep into their lives They keep it only a short time As soon as trouble or persecution comes because of the teaching they accepted they give up,Ela kwa kukala neno riryahu k'arina miziji moyoni mwakwe mut'u yuyahu k'atoa naro bule Kwani thabu hedu mateso gakimudzirira kwa ut'u wa ro neno k'avumirira bule anaviricha kare
And what about the seed that fell among the thorny weeds That is like the people who hear the teaching but let worries about this life and love for money stop it from growing So it does not produce a crop in their lives,Mungine ye ni here iryahu mbeyu iriyogwa miyani Mut'u iye nikusikira ro neno ra Mulungu ela vata za urumwengu na ukengi wa mali nikurikonya-konya ro neno hatha rikakala k'arindazhala kit'u
But what about the seed that fell on the good ground That is like the people who hear the teaching and understand it They grow and produce a good crop sometimes 100 times more sometimes 60 times more and sometimes 30 times more,Ela mut'u mungine ye ni here iryahu mbeyu iriyogwa kahi za mutsanga mudzo Mut'u yuyu nikurisikira ro neno ra Mulungu akarielewat'o Bai at'u mario dza vizho yuyu nikuzhala matunda Yuno gana yuya mirongo mihandahu na mungine mirongo mihahu
Then Jesus used another story to teach them Jesus said Gods kingdom is like a man who planted good seed in his field,Bai kula haho Jesu akiambira o at'u fumbo ringine akiamba Uthawali wa mulunguni udzahalana na mut'u ariyekwendalaya ngano mundani kwakwe
That night while everyone was asleep the mans enemy came and planted weeds among the wheat and then left,Vikara siku iyo vizho hadhui wa kwakwe naye akithariza hatha at'u machangira ndazini achendamwaga-mwaga ngano ya vuweni kahi za yo ngano yenye
Later the wheat grew and heads of grain grew on the plants But at the same time the weeds also grew,Bai mbeyu zizi zamera na zikikula hatha ngano inaamba inafumula yo ngano ya vuweni nayo ikifumula
Then the mans servants came to him and said You planted good seed in your field Where did the weeds come from,K'uzhona aryahu ahumiki marihoona viryahu machendamuza ye mwenye munda makiamba Bwana samba walaya ngano yenye we murya mundani mwako Be mbona vino muna ngano ya vuweni
The man answered An enemy planted weeds,Ye mwenye munda akiamba Hadhui ndiye ariyekudzailaya O ahumiki makimwamba Vikara vino hukaing'ole hedu huhendedze
He answered No because when you pull up the weeds you might also pull up the wheat,Ye mwenye munda akiadzigidzya akiamba Hatha musendeing'ola bule Kwani muchendaing'ola munadima kung'ola hatha yo ngano yenye nayo
Let the weeds and the wheat grow together until the harvest time At the harvest time I will tell the workers this First gather the weeds and tie them together to be burned Then gather the wheat and bring it to my barn,Ut'u uwo uricheni ukule hamwenga hatha wakathi wa kuvuna Haho nindaambira o avuni kukala Ihaleni yo ngano ya vuweni yosi kwandza muifunge mabutsa-mabutsa mugaike k'anda gaochwe Mukigonya vizho halani yo ngano yenye muyangize lutsagani mwangu
Then Jesus told the people another story Gods kingdom is like a mustard seed that a man plants in his field,Bai Jesu arihogonya kuambira ro fumbo riro akihamboza fumbo ringine kaheri akiamba Uthawali wa mulunguni udzahalana na katembe kathithe ka haradali kariko mut'u mumwenga wakahala achendakalaya mundani mwakwe
It is the smallest of all seeds But when it grows it is the largest of all garden plants It becomes a tree big enough for the birds to come and make nests in its branches,Katembe kaka ni kathithe kukira t'embe zosi Ela kakimera nikukula zhomu hatha kakakira mimera mingine yosi ya mundani Kidza nikukala muhi mubomu hatha unyama ukadzaaka vitsunji zhao mo vitaini
Then Jesus told them another story Gods kingdom is like yeast that a woman mixes into a big bowl of flour to make bread The yeast makes all the dough rise,Jesu akiambozera fumbo ringine akiamba Uthawali wa mulunguni udzahalana na ts'ats'u iriyohalwa ni mwanamuche akivugira p'ishi t'ahu za unga wa ngano na ukikutuka wosi
Jesus used stories to tell all these things to the people He always used stories to teach them,Bai kila kit'u arichokifundisha Jesu kwa o at'u wakifundisha kwa kuhumira mafumbo k'akuna kit'u hatha kimwenga arichokifundisha bila kuhumira mafumbo
This was to make clear the full meaning of what the prophet said,Bai wahenda vivi ili maneno garigonenwa ni nabii mumwenga ho kapindi gathimire Kwani nabii iye wanena akiamba Nindahumira mafumbo kunena maut'u garigofitswa hangu kuumbwa kwa urumwengu
Then Jesus left the people and went into the house His followers came to him and said Explain to us the meaning of the story about the weeds in the field,Vikara Jesu arihogonya kunena akiaricha o at'u na akiuya ko nyumbani arikokala adzambola Bai arihofika kuko anafundzie makimuthuwa makimwamba Bwana rirya fumbo ra ngano ya vuweni manaye ni noni Fambire
He answered The man who planted the good seed in the field is the Son of Man,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba K'amuona h'e mulayi wa yo mbeyu mbidzo ni Mwana wa Mudamu
The field is the world The good seed are the people in Gods kingdom The weeds are the people who belong to the Evil One,Wo munda ni uu urumwengu Mbeyu mbidzo ni ana a Uthawali na ngano ya vuweni ni ana a ye Mui
And the enemy who planted the bad seed is the devil The harvest is the end of time And the workers who gather are Gods angels,Iye nde mulayi wa yo ngano ya vuweni Wakathi wa kuvuna ni siku ya mwisho na avuni ni malaika
The weeds are pulled up and burned in the fire It will be the same at the end of time,Siku ya mwisho vindakala dza vizho zhenye zha ngano ya vuweni kung'olwa na kwangizwa mohoni
The Son of Man will send his angels and they will find the people who cause sin and all those who do evil The angels will take those people out of his kingdom,Kwani Mwana wa Mudamu andaalagiza malaikae makundzumanye ahendi a mai osi hamwenga na aryahu maahendyao andziyao mahende mai na maamboze ndze ya uthawali wa kwakwe
They will throw them into the place of fire There the people will be crying and grinding their teeth with pain,Makila haho maahale makaatsuhe mohoni Na kuko mandarira na kufuna meno
Then the godly people will shine like the sun They will be in the kingdom of their Father You people who hear me listen,Ela ahachi o mandang'ala here dzuwa kahi za uthawali wa Babiyao Mwenye masikiro naasikire
Gods kingdom is like a treasure hidden in a field One day a man found the treasure He hid it again and was so happy that he went and sold everything he owned and bought the field,Jesu akienderera kumboza mafumbo mangine akiamba Uthawali wa mulunguni udzahalana na ushaha uriwokala wafitswa hat'u mundani vivi Vikara mut'u mumwenga arihokwendaupesa akikaza kuufitsa Na kwa ro fwahiro bomu arirokala naro achendaguza vit'uzhe zhosi akidzagula wo munda
Also Gods kingdom is like a merchant looking for fine pearls,Bai Jesu akihamboza fumbo ringine kaheri akiamba Uthawali wa mulunguni udzahalana na mut'u mumwenga ariyekala kaziye ni kumala lulu na kwendaguza
One day he found a very fine pearl He went and sold everything he had to buy it,K'ona siku mwenga achendaona lulu ya kima kibomu sana Bai achendaguza vit'u zhosi arizhokala nazho akidzaigula
Also Gods kingdom is like a net that was put into the lake The net caught many different kinds of fish,Kidza Jesu akimboza fumbo ringine akiamba Pia uthawali wa mulunguni udzahalana na nyavu bomu sana iriyogwagwa ziyani na ikigwira makumba ga kila namuna
It was full so the fishermen pulled it to the shore They sat down and put all the good fish in baskets Then they threw away the bad fish,Bai irihokala idzadzala o avuhi makiimboza ndze gonya makikelesi kutsagula makumba ga kuriwa na gasigoriwa Garyahu ga kuriwa makigangiza k'ahuni mwao garya gasoriwa makigatsuha
It will be the same at the end of time The angels will come and separate the evil people from the godly people,Na siku ya mwisho vindakala dza vizho zhenye Malaika mandaathenga at'u ai lwao na ahachi lwao
They will throw the evil people into the place of fire There the people will cry and grind their teeth with pain,Makigonya vizho mandaahala at'u ai osi maatsuhe mohoni na kuko mandarira na kufuna meno
Then Jesus asked his followers Do you understand all these things,Jesu arihogonya kuathalira mafumbo gaga akiauza akiamba Vidze mudzagasikira gano nidzigomwambira Na anafundzie makimudzigidzya makiamba Ee hudzagasikira
Then Jesus said to the followers So every teacher of the law who has learned about Gods kingdom has some new things to teach He is like the owner of a house He has new things and old things saved in that house And he brings out the new with the old,Bai marihokala madzadzigidzya Jesu akiambira H'aya bai kila mwalimu wa sheria adziyefundishwa ujeri dzulu za uthawali wa mulunguni a karakara na mut'u ariye na akibaze nyumbani mwakwe Ni kwangira akamboza mbisha na za kapindi
When Jesus finished teaching with these stories he left there,Bai arihokala adzagonya kumboza go mafumbo gago Jesu wauka haho arihokala
He went to the town where he grew up He taught the people in the synagogue and they were amazed They said Where did this man get such wisdom and this power to do miracles,achenda kwao Vikara arihofika kuko achangira kahi za sinagogi ra at'u a kuko na akikwacha kufundisha K'uzhona o at'u makingalala zhomu makiamba Uno ulachu be tha waupatahi Na zino nguvu za kutengezera miujiza nazo wazilazhahi
Isnt he just the son of the carpenter we know Isnt his mothers name Mary and arent his brothers James Joseph Simon and Judas,Yuno si yuyahu mwana wa fundhi wa kutsonga bule yuno Samba tha mameye ni Maryamu yuno Hatha nduguze osi a kilume hunaamanya Jakobu na Josefu na Simoni na Juda
And dont all his sisters still live here in town How is he able to do these things,H'e o nduguze a kiche samba osi ma haha Vikara maut'u gano gosi wagapatahi
So they had a problem accepting him,Bai k'aviafahire Jesu arihoona viryahu akiamba Nabii anaishimiwa kila hat'u isihokala kahi za ts'i ya kwao na mudzini kwao
Jesus did not do many miracles there because the people did not believe in him,Bai kwa ut'u wa ko kutsakuluhira kwao Jesu k'akuhendere miujiza minji kuko
About that time Herod the ruler of Galilee heard what the people were saying about Jesus,Vikara makathi garyahu muthawali Herode ariyekala akiifwa Anitipasi wasikira nguma ya go maut'u mabomu arigokala akigahenda Jesu
So he said to his servants This man is really John the Baptizer He must have risen from death and that is why he can do these miracles,Akiambira ahumikie Iye ni Johana Mubat'izaji iye wafufuka ndo hatha ana wadimi wa kuhenda maut'u mabomu-mabomu
Before this time Herod had arrested John He had him chained and put in prison He arrested John because of Herodias the wife of Philip Herods brother,Herode were wamugwira Johana akimufunga minyororo akimwangiza jela Vivi wavihenda kwa ut'u wa Herodia mwanamuche ariyekala Herode wamuhoka nduguye ariyekala akiifwa Filipu
John had told him It is not right for you to be married to Herodias,Johana Mubat'izaji akimwambira Herode kukala Si hachi bule kumuhala mukaza nduguyo
Herod wanted to kill him but he was afraid of the people They believed that John was a prophet,Lengo ra Herode were ni amwalage ye Johana ela k'avihendere kwa ut'u wa kuagoha o Ayahudi kwani ao were manamona Johana kukala ni nabii
On Herods birthday the daughter of Herodias danced for him and his group Herod was very pleased with her,Siku mwenga Herode were anausa sherehe ya kukumbukira siku ariyozhalwa na musichana wa Herodia akidzaavinira ajeni Bai Herode wafwahirwa zhomu
So he promised that he would give her anything she wanted,hatha akilaha kukala chochosi andichomala ye musichana andamup'a
Herodias told her daughter what to ask for So she said to Herod Give me the head of John the Baptizer here on this plate,Bai kwa kufundishwa ni mameye ye musichana akiamba Ningizira kitswa cha Johana Mubat'izaji kahi za riri bunguu
King Herod was very sad But he had promised to give the daughter anything she wanted And the people eating with Herod had heard his promise So he ordered what she asked to be done,Arihosikira vizho Herode washononeka zhomu ela kwa were adzalaha mbere za ajeni kukala kila andichomalwa andalazha akilagiza kukala agerwe
He sent men to the prison where they cut off Johns head,Akilagiza mut'u achenda ko jela achendamutosa kitswa Johana
And the men brought Johns head on a plate and gave it to the girl Then she took the head to her mother Herodias,Bai akichangiza bunguuni akimurehera ye musichana naye akikihala akimuhirikira mameye
Johns followers came and got his body and buried it Then they went and told Jesus what happened,Anafundzi a Johana marihovisikira makidzamuhala machendamuzika gonya machendamwambira Jesu
When Jesus heard what happened to John he left in a boat He went alone to a place where no one lived But the people heard that Jesus had left So they left their towns and followed him They went by land to the same place he went,Vikara Jesu arihousikira wo uvoro wa kwalagwa kwa Johana akikwera dau kwenda kut'u kwa iye h'akeye kure na at'u Ela at'u marihovisikira makimbola midzini makundi-makundi makimuthuwa na magulu hatha makifika ko arikokala anenda
When Jesus got out of the boat he saw a large crowd of people He felt sorry for them and he healed the ones who were sick,Bai arihothima mo dauni akirona ro kundi bomu ra at'u ririrokala ridzamuthuwa naye akiaonera mbazi na akiahoza akongo ao
Late that afternoon the followers came to Jesus and said No one lives in this place And it is already late Send the people away so they can go to the towns and buy food for themselves,Vikara kurihokala kunaenderera kutswa o anafundzie mamwendera makimwamba Bwana hat'u haha be ni nyika zhomu nako kunakaza kutswa kwa vizho baha uafumule aa at'u mangire mo midzini makadzigulire zhakurya
Jesus said The people dont need to go away You give them some food to eat,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Hatha k'avimala bule ap'eni chakurya ninwi
The followers answered But we have only five loaves of bread and two fish,Vikara marihosikira vizho o anafundzi makimuza Jesu makiamba Fundaarisadze sino naswi funa mikahe mitsano na makumba mairi thu-thu-thu
Jesus said Bring the bread and the fish to me,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Vireheni kuno hedu
Then he told the people to sit down on the grass He took the five loaves of bread and the two fish He looked into the sky and thanked God for the food Then he broke the bread into pieces which he gave to the followers and they gave the food to the people,Akiambira o at'u makeresi ho nyasini Marihogonya kukelesi akihala yo mikahe mitsano na go makumba mairi akilola dzulu mulunguni akimboza muvera kwa Mulungu gonya akivimogola-mogola akiap'a anafundzie maagazhire o at'u
Everyone ate until they were full When they finished eating the followers filled twelve baskets with the pieces of food that were not eaten,Nao osi makirya hatha makivilola Bai marihogonya kurya o anafundzi makitsola-tsola zho visiku-visiku virizhokala vidzasala na makidzaza k'ahu kumi na mbiri
There were about 5000 men there who ate There were also women and children who ate,Isabu ya o at'u mariorya were ni here alifu ts'ano hasiho kuthala ache na ahoho
Then Jesus made the followers get into the boat He told them to go to the other side of the lake He said he would come later He stayed there to tell everyone they could go home,Bai o at'u marihogonya kurya thu Jesu waambira o anafundzie mangire dauni mathangulie kwenda nyangamo ya hiri kuno ye anaafumula o at'u
After Jesus said goodbye to the people he went up into the hills by himself to pray It was late and he was there alone,Bai arihokala adzagonya kuafumula wakwera dzulu kirimani kwendavoya hatha akitsererwa h'akeye kuko
By this time the boat was already a long way from shore Since the wind was blowing against it the boat was having trouble because of the waves,Wakathi uwo ro dau were ridzafika kure zhomu kidza were rinaheha na maimbi kwani lupeho lwere lunambola ko mendako
Between three and six oclock in the morning Jesus followers were still in the boat Jesus came to them He was walking on the water,Bai urihofika wakathi wa jogolo ra kwandza kuika akiambolera kuno ananenda dzulu za madzi
When they saw him walking on the water it scared them Its a ghost they said screaming in fear,Ela o anafundzi marihomona ananenda dzulu za madzi makihondoka zhomu makipiga k'ululu kwa woga kwa kukala were manaona ni p'ep'o
But Jesus quickly spoke to them He said Dont worry Its me Dont be afraid,Jesu akinena nao haraka akiamba Sogoheni ndimi musihondoke
Peter said Lord if that is really you tell me to come to you on the water,P'et'ero akiamba Kala ndiwe jeri Bwana nambira nami ninende dzulu za gaga madzi nikuthuwe kuko uriko
Jesus said Come Peter,Jesu akimudzigidzya akimwamba Ndzo K'ona P'et'ero akithima kula mo dauni akinenda dzulu za go madzi kumuthuwa Jesu
But while Peter was walking on the water he saw the wind and the waves He was afraid and began sinking into the water He shouted Lord save me,Ela arihosikira lo luvutho zho lupigazho na nguvu achangirwa ni woga na akikwacha kuhoha Akipiga k'ululu akiamba Bwana nokola
Then Jesus caught Peter with his hand He said Your faith is small Why did you doubt,Na haho henye Jesu akigoloza mukono akimugwira gonya akiamba Mut'u wa kuluhiro thithe we kwanoni udzahenda k'ai-k'ai mo moyoni
After Peter and Jesus were in the boat the wind stopped,Arihonena vizho iye na P'et'ero machangira mo dauni na lo luvutho lukihurira
Then the followers in the boat worshiped Jesus and said You really are the Son of God,Na o at'u osi mariokala mo dauni makimuzamira makiamba Ujeri wenye uwe u Mwana wa Mulungu
After they crossed the lake they came to the shore at Gennesaret,Bai Jesu na anafundzie makivuka ro ziya na makifika ts'i ya Genezarethi
Some men there saw Jesus and knew who he was So they sent word to the other people throughout that area that Jesus had come The people brought all their sick people to him,Vikara at'u a kuko marihomanya kukala ni Jesu makivitsamusa kare lalo rosi kukala Jesu adzire K'uzhona makimurehera Jesu akongo osi
They begged Jesus to let them only touch the edge of his coat to be healed And all the sick people who touched his coat were healed,na makimuvoya mahende kugut'a ro pindo ra ro valore thu na osi mariorigut'a mahola
Then some Pharisees and teachers of the law came to Jesus They came from Jerusalem and asked him,Siku mwenga Mafarisayo na alimu a Sheria mambola Jerusalemu machenda hatha kuko arikokala Jesu Manafika kuko makimwamba
Why do your followers not obey the traditions we have from our great leaders who lived long ago Your followers dont wash their hands before they eat,Mbona o anafundzio manaribanda ro adha ra kuoga mikono hurirorichirwa ni akare ehu Kwani kala manarya k'amaoga mikono
Jesus answered And why do you refuse to obey Gods command so that you can follow those traditions you have,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Mbona nwi munabanda malagizo ga Mulungu ili muthuwe maadha genu enye
God said You must respect your father and motherAnd God also said Whoever says anything bad to their father or mother must be killed,Mulungu walagiza kukala Muishimu babayo na mameyo Kidza akiamba Ye andemuhukana babaye hedu mameye kumala kwalagwa naalagwe
But you teach that a person can say to their father or mother I have something I could use to help you But I will not use it for you I will give it to God,Ela nwi munafundisha kukala mut'u akihala kit'u adimacho kumup'a babaye hedu mameye na akakala adzamwaviza na hat'uhe akilazhe kwa Mulungu
You are teaching them not to respect their father So you are teaching that it is not important to do what God said You think it is more important to follow those traditions you have,andakala k'ana haja ya kuaishimu bule Mbona munarihenda neno ra Mulungu kutsakala na nguvu kwa muthuwe maadha genu enye
You are hypocrites Isaiah was right when he spoke for God about you,Munadzihendya sana ninwi Nabii Isaya wanenat'o sana dzulu zenu Kwani waamba
These people honor me with their words,At'u aa mananogoha kwa makanwa gao
Their worship of me is worthless,Hatha makanivoya ni bule
Jesus called the people to him He said Listen and understand what I am saying,Bai Jesu arihogonya kunena na o Mafarisayo akiaiha o at'u akiambira Nisirikizani na mung'alirwe
It is not what people put in their mouth that makes them wrongIt is what comes out of their mouth that makes them wrong,Changiracho kanwani mwa mut'u k'akimuhendya mukolo Kimuhendyacho mut'u akakala mukolo ni kiryahu chambolacho kanwani mwakwe
Then the followers came to Jesus and asked Do you know that the Pharisees are upset about what you said,K'uzhona zho marihombola haho anafundzi makimwamba kukala Unamanya kukala virya udzizhovinena harya vidzaatsukiza o Mafarisayo
Jesus answered Every plant that my Father in heaven has not planted will be pulled up by the roots,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Kila mumera uriwo k'aulayirwe ni Baba ariye ko mulunguni undang'olwa
Stay away from the Pharisees They lead the people but they are like blind men leading other blind men And if a blind man leads another blind man both of them will fall into a ditch,Aricheni ao ni vipofu malongozao vipofu andziyao Na kipofu akimulongoza kipofu mwandziwe k'amafikahi bule osi mandavoromoka winani
Peter said Explain to us what you said earlier to the people,Ela P'et'ero akimwamba Jesu Fambire mana ya rirya fumbo hedu
Jesus said Do you still have trouble understanding,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Hatha ninwi nanwi k'amung'alirwa bule
Surely you know that all the food that enters the mouth goes into the stomach Then it goes out of the body,Samba ukirya kit'u kinenda ndanini mwako gonya uchenda chandze unenda ukachamboze
But the bad things people say with their mouth come from the way they think And thats what can make people wrong,Ela maut'u mai gambolago kanwani nikukala gala moyoni na gago ndo gamuhendyago mut'u kukala mukolo
All these bad things begin in the mind evil thoughts murder adultery sexual sins stealing lying and insulting people,Kwani moyo ndo udimao kumboza maazo mai gamuhendyago mut'u akalaga akazinga akaiya akamboza ushahidhi wa ulongo na akahukana mut'u
These are the things that make people wrong Eating without washing their hands will never make people unacceptable to God,Gaga ndo maut'u gamuhendyago mut'u kukala mukolo Ela kurya bila kuoga mikono dza zho mahendzazho ao k'avidima kumuhendya mut'u yoyosi akale mukolo
Jesus went from there to the area of Tyre and Sidon,Bai Jesu akimbola jimbo ra Galilaya na achendakala kahi za eneo ra midzi ya Tiro na Sidoni
A Canaanite woman from that area came out and began shouting Lord Son of David please help me My daughter has a demon inside her and she is suffering very much,Arihofika kuko lola mwanamuche mumwenga Muk'anani ariyekala akitoa p'ande zizo akimuthuwa na akiluta mumiro akimwamba Nionera mbazi h'ewe Bwana Mwana wa DaudiMusichana wangu ana p'ep'o be a vii-vii zhomu sana
But Jesus did not answer her So the followers came to him and said Tell her to go away She keeps crying out and will not leave us alone,Jesu k'amudzigidzyire kit'u Bai o anafundzi makimwamba Jesu Bwana mwambe ariche kuhuthuwa-thuwa kwani be anahupigira londzo
Jesus answered God sent me only to the lost peopleof Israel,Jesu akiamba Mimi nahumwa kwa Aiziraeli h'akeye ng'ondzi zirizongamika
Then the woman came over to Jesus and bowed before him She said Lord help me,Ela ye mwanamuche akidzamupigira mavindi akiamba Naviza Bwana
He answered her with this saying It is not right to take the childrens bread and give it to the dogs,Jesu akimwamba Si karakara bule nihale chakurya cha ahoho nikitsuhire k'uro
The woman said Yes Lord but even the dogs eat the pieces of food that fall from their masters table,Ye mwanamuche akidzigidzya akiamba U mujeri ela hatha ye k'uro naye nikurya magande gadzigogwagwa ni ye mwenye k'uro
Then Jesus answered Woman you have great faith You will get what you asked for And right then the womans daughter was healed,Jesu akimwamba Mwanamuche uwe be una kuluhiro bomu sana Bai vizho umalazho navikale Na wakathi uwo wenye ye musichanawe akihola kare
Then Jesus went from there to the shore of Lake Galilee He went up on a hill and sat down,Vikara Jesu arihombola haho wakira na k'anda-k'anda za ro ziya ra Galilaya akipanda kuko dzulu virimani achendakeresi kuko
A large crowd of people came to him They brought many other sick people and put them before him There were people who could not walk people who were blind crippled or deaf and many others Jesus healed them all,Bai at'u anji makidza na akongo ao virema vidende vipofu mabwibwi na akongo angine anji Akongo aa makudzaikwa mbere za Jesu naye akiahoza osini
People were amazed when they saw that those who could not speak were now able to speak Crippled people were made strong Those who could not walk were now able to walk The blind were able to see Everyone thanked the God of Israel for this,O at'u marihoona viryahu Jesu ahozazho akongo machangalala na makimulika Mulungu wa Iziraeli Maona mabwibwi gananena at'u enye virema mananenda vidende manahola na vipofu manaona
Jesus called his followers to him and said I feel sorry for these people They have been with me three days and now they have nothing to eat I dont want to send them away hungry They might faint while going home,Vikara Jesu akiaiha anafundzie akiamba At'u aa be mananishononesa zhomu Hangu makale nami haha rero ni hahu na vivi k'amana ut'u wowosi wa kurya nami ts'endzi niafumule na ndzala p'ore makendagwa na mutsare mo ngirani
The followers asked Jesus Where can we get enough bread to feed all these people We are a long way from any town,K'uzhona o anafundzie makimuza makimwamba Bwana cho chakurya cha kuarisa at'u ano osi hano nyika hundachambozahi
Jesus asked How many loaves of bread do you have,Jesu akiauza akiamba Kwani muna mikahe mingahi Makiamba Mifungahe na vikumba zha kuthala
Jesus told the people to sit on the ground,Bai Jesu akiambira o at'u makelesi ho ts'i
He took the seven loaves of bread and the fish Then he gave thanks to God for the food He broke the bread into pieces which he gave to the followers and they gave the food to the people,Marihogonya kukelesi Jesu akihala yo mikahe mifungahe na zho vikumba akilazha muvera gonya akivimogola-mogola akiap'a o anafundzie maagazhire o at'u
All the people ate until they were full After this the followers filled seven baskets with the pieces of food that were not eaten,Lola at'u osini marya vivii hatha makivilola kidza o anafundzi makidzaza k'ahu fungahe za visiku-visiku virizhokala vidzasala
There were about 4000 men there who ate There were also some women and children,Na murongo wa o at'u mariorya were unafika alume alifu ne bila kuthala ache na ahoho
After they all ate Jesus told the people they could go home He got into the boat and went to the area of Magadan,Bai Jesu arihokala adzagonya kuafumula o at'u wakwera dau achenda jimbo ra Magadani
The Pharisees and Sadducees came to Jesus They wanted to test him So they asked him to show them a miracle as a sign from God,Siku mwenga Mafarisayo na Masadukayo makwendamujeza Jesu makimwamba aanyese muujiza wa kula mulunguni
Jesus answered When you people see the sunset you know what the weather will be If the sky is red you say we will have good weather,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Mukiona dzuwa rinapothoka na mulunguni ni kuthune munaamba Machero kundasindat'o
And in the morning if the sky is dark and red you say that it will be a rainy day These are signs of the weather You see these signs in the sky and know what they mean In the same way you see the things that are happening now These are also signs but you dont know their meaning,Mukiona kudzagit'ana na madzach'a na mulunguni ni kuthune munaamba Rero kundanya vula ya luvutho Munamanya kulola mulunguni na mukamanya kundakalani ela mivano ya makathi hurigo k'amumanya kuilola
It is the evil and sinful people who want to see a miracle as a sign from God But no miracle will be done to prove anything to them The only sign will be the miracle that happened to Jonah Then Jesus went away from there,Kizhazi kithiriri kisokuluhira Kinamala kwanyeswa muvano bai k'akindanyeswa muvano wowosi isihokala uryahu wa Jona Naye arihogonya kunena vizho akihauka
Jesus and his followers went across the lake But the followers forgot to bring bread,Vikara marihombola haho Jesu na anafundzie makwera dauni na makivuka kwenda nyangamo ya hiri ya ro ziya ra Galilaya O anafundzi mere madzasahau kutsukula mikahe kamare
Jesus said to the followers Be careful Guard against the yeast of the Pharisees and the Sadducees,Jesu akinena nao akiamba Dzichungeni sana Dzimanyirireni na ts'ats'u ya Mafarisayo na ya Masadukayo
The followers discussed the meaning of this They said Did Jesus say this because we forgot to bring bread,K'uzhona marihosikira viryahu o anafundzi makiuzana-uzana makiamba Ni zho hurizho k'ahutsukulire mikahe
Jesus knew that they were talking about this So he asked them Why are you talking about not having bread Your faith is small,Ela Jesu ye akivimanya akiamba At'u a kuluhiro thithe nwi Mbona munauzana-uzana dzulu za kukosa mikahe
Do you still not understand Remember the five loaves of bread that fed the 5000 people and the many baskets you filled with the bread that was left,Vidze muchere k'amudzang'alirwa Hedu mudzasahau kare zho nirizhoarisa at'u alifu ts'ano na mikahe mitsano hatha mukidzaza k'ahu nyinji zenye za masaza
And remember the seven loaves of bread that fed the 4000 people and the many baskets you filled that time,H'e zho nirizhoarisa at'u alifu ne na mikahe mifungahe Zho samba mwadzaza k'ahu nyinji zenye za masaza mino
So how could you think that I am concerned about bread I am telling you to be careful and guard against the yeast of the Pharisees and the Sadducees,Vino mbona k'amung'alirirwe hatha munaamba nanena dzulu za mikahe Ninanena kaheri dzimanyirireni na ts'ats'u ya Mafarisayo na ya Masadukayo
Then the followers understood what Jesus meant He was not telling them to guard against the yeast used in bread He was telling them to guard against the teaching of the Pharisees and the Sadducees,Bai charo kiki o anafundzi makielewa kukala Jesu were k'anena dzulu za ts'ats'u ela were anaamba madzimanyirire na mafundisho ga Mafarisayo na ga Masadukayo
Jesus went to the area of Caesarea Philippi He said to his followers Who do people say I am,Vikara Jesu na anafundzie marihofika p'ande za Kaisaria Filipi Jesu akiauza anafundzie akiamba At'u manaamba Mwana wa Mudamu ni h'ani
They answered Some people say you are John the Baptizer Others say you are Elijah And some say you are Jeremiah or one of the prophets,Makimudzigidzya makiamba Angine manaamba u Johana Mubat'izaji angine manaamba u Elija na angine manaamba u Jeremia hedu mumwenga kahi za o manabii
Then Jesus said to his followers And who do you say I am,Jesu akiauza kaheri akiamba Nwi enye munaamba ni h'ani
Simon Peter answered You are the Messiah the Son of the living God,Simoni aifwaye P'et'ero akimudzigidzya akiamba Uwe u Masihi Mwana wa Mulungu ariye moyo
Jesus answered You are blessed Simon son of Jonah No one taught you that My Father in heaven showed you who I am,Jesu akimwamba P'et'ero Baha uwe Simoni wa Jona kwa kukala zho udzizhovinena be k'uzhambirirwe ni mut'u bule udzazhambirwa ni Baba ariye ko mulunguni
So I tell you you are PeterAnd I will build my church on this rock The power of deathwill not be able to defeat my church,Nami nakwambira kukala uwe ndiwe P'et'eronami nindajenga kanisa rangu dzulu za iwe riri na hatha miryango ya kuzimu kidza k'aindadima kurishinda
I will give you the keys to Gods kingdom When you speak judgment here on earth that judgment will be Gods judgment When you promise forgiveness here on earth that forgiveness will be Gods forgiveness,Nindakup'a funguo za uthawali wa mulunguni Na kila undichokifunga haha dhuniani hatha ko mulunguni nako kindafungwa Na kila undichokivugula haha dhuniani hatha ko mulunguni nako kindavugulwa
Then Jesus warned his followers not to tell anyone he was the Messiah,Bai arihogonya kunena vizho Jesu akiakokot'era anafundzie masimwambire mut'u yoyosi kukala iye nde Masihi
From that time Jesus began telling his followers that he must go to Jerusalem He explained that the older Jewish leaders the leading priests and the teachers of the law would make him suffer many things And he told his followers that he must be killed Then on the third day he would be raised from death,Vikara kulaiza wakathi uwo Jesu akikwacha kuambira anafundzie lwazu-lwazu dzulu za maut'u gandigokala Bai waamba kukala ni lazima ende Jerusalemu akateswe sana kahi za mikono ya athumia a Kiyahudi na alombi abomu na alimu a Sheria na alagwe na siku ya hahu afufulwe
Peter took Jesus away from the other followers to talk to him alone He began to criticize him He said God save you from those sufferings Lord That will never happen to you,P'et'ero akimuvuha k'anda akikwacha kumuchemera akimwamba Hatha Bwana vizho uambazho k'avindakala kamare
Then Jesus said to Peter Get away from me Satan You are not helping me You dont care about the same things God does You care only about things that people think are important,Jesu akimugalukira P'et'ero akimwamba Hauke Shethani unaniziza ngira kwani maazogo k'agambolere kwa Mulungu bule gadzambola kwa mudamu
Then Jesus said to his followers If any of you want to be my follower you must stop thinking about yourself and what you want You must be willing to carry the cross that is given to you for following me,Bai arihogonya kunena vizho akiagalukira o anafundzi akiamba Mut'u akihendza kunithuwa mimi suthi adzikane mwenye na adzihike musalabawe anithuwe
Any of you who try to save the life you have will lose it But you who give up your life for me will find true life,Kwani kila amalaye kuthizha rohoye andayangamiza na kila andiyeyangamiza kwa ut'u wangu mimi andaipata
It is worth nothing for you to have the whole world if you yourself are lost You could never pay enough to buy back your life,Kwani vindamufwahani mut'u akipata vit'u zhosi zha urumwengu gonya rohoye yangamike Hedu mut'u anadima kugula rohoye
The Son of Man will come again with his Fathers glory and with his angels And he will reward everyone for what they have done,Kwani Mwana wa Mudamu andakudza na malaikae kahi za nguma ya Babaye naye andakudzamuriha kila mut'u kulengana na maut'u arigogahenda mwenye
Believe me when I say that there are some people standing here who will see the Son of Man coming with his kingdom before they die,Nami ninamwambira ujeri wenye kukala haha hana at'u mario k'amandafwa kabila kumona Mwana wa Mudamu anadza kahi za uthawaliwe
Six days later Jesus took Peter James and John the brother of James and went up on a high mountain They were all alone there,Vikara siku t'andahu bada ya kunena dzulu za kudzakwe Jesu wamuhala P'et'ero na Jakobu na Johana nduguye Jakobu na akikwera nao dzulu za murima mure kure na at'u
While these followers watched him Jesus was changed His face became bright like the sun and his clothes became white as light,Bai marihokala ma kuko Jesu akigaluka sura kamare kuno manalolera Usowe ukikala unang'ala-ng'ala here dzuwa na nguwoze zikikala nyaruhe tse-tse-tse
Then two men were there talking with him They were Moses and Elijah,Na lola haho henye Musa na Elija makiambolera makikala mananena naye
Peter said to Jesus Lord it is good that we are here If you want I will put three tents hereone for you one for Moses and one for Elijah,Bai P'et'ero arihoona viryahu akimwamba Jesu Bwana ni vidzo zho zha fu haha Ukihendza nadima kumuakira vibanda vihahu mino Kimwenga chako kimwenga cha Musa na kimwenga cha Elija
While Peter was talking a bright cloud came over them A voice came from the cloud and said This is my Son the one I love I am very pleased with him Obey him,Lola P'et'ero were k'adzatosa kuchambola ingu ra kung'ala rikidzaafinikira Na sauthi ikimbola mo inguni ikiamba Yuyu nde Mwanangu muhendzwi anifwahizaye musirikizeni iye
The followers with Jesus heard this voice They were very afraid so they fell to the ground,K'ona o anafundzi marihosikira vizho machangirwa ni woga zhomu makigwa na moyo
But Jesus came to them and touched them He said Stand up Dont be afraid,Ela Jesu akidzaagut'a akiamba Musigohe bule ukani
The followers looked up and they saw that Jesus was now alone,Nao marihotsuha matso gao makimona Jesu thu h'akeye k'amaonere mut'u mungine bule
As Jesus and the followers were coming down the mountain he gave them this command Dont tell anyone about what you saw on the mountain Wait until the Son of Man has been raised from death Then you can tell people about what you saw,Badaye marihokala manatharamuka kula ko dzulu ya wo murima Jesu akiakokot'era o anafundzie akiamba Viryahu mudzizhozhona kuryahu be musizhambire mut'u kamare muhaka haho Mwana wa Mudamu andihofufulwa
The followers asked Jesus Why do the teachers of the law say that Elijah must comebefore the Messiah comes,O anafundzi makimuza Jesu makiamba Mbona o alimu a Sheria manaamba ni lazima Elija adze kwandza
Jesus answered They are right to say Elijah is coming And it is true that Elijah will make all things the way they should be,Akiadzigidzya akiamba Zho ni vizho Elija ni lazima athangulie kuthayarisha kila kit'u
But I tell you Elijah has already come People did not know who he was and they treated him badly doing whatever they wanted to do It is the same with the Son of Man Those same people will make the Son of Man suffer,Ela namwambira kukala Elija wakudza kare ela at'u k'amamanyire ndeye bule makimuhenda kila marichoona ni karakara Na vizho zhenye ndizho mandizhomutesa Mwana wa Mudamu
Then the followers understood that when Jesus said Elijah he was really talking about John the Baptizer,Jesu arihogonya kunena o anafundzi makimanya kukala were ananena dzulu za Johana Mubat'izaji
Jesus and the followers went back to the people A man came to Jesus and bowed before him,Vikara marihouya ko at'u marikokala mwanamulume mumwenga akimudhana Jesu na akidzapiga mavindi ho mbereze
The man said Lord be kind to my son He suffers so much from the seizures he has He often falls into the fire or into the water,akiamba Bwana muthana wangu ana vitsala vikali na vinamup'a thabu sana Mara nyinji nikumugwaga mohoni na hatha madzini Kwa vizho muonere mbazi Bwana
I brought him to your followers but they could not heal him,Nidzaarehera aryahu anafundzio mamuhoze ela k'amazhadimire bule
Jesus answered You people today have no faith Your lives are so wrong How long must I stay with you How long must I continue to be patient with you Bring the boy here,K'uzhona Jesu arihosikira viryahu akidzigidzya akiamba H'enwi at'u a kizhazi cha kwangamika ngira musio na kuluhiro nindakala nanwi hatha rini Nindamuvumirira hatha rini Murehe kuno ye muhoho
Jesus gave a strong command to the demon inside the boy The demon came out of the boy and the boy was healed,Naye arihorefwa Jesu akimuchemera yuyahu p'ep'o wa vitsala akimwambola na ye muhoho akihola kare
Then the followers came to Jesus alone They said We tried to force the demon out of the boy but we could not Why were we not able to make the demon go out,Vikara badaye o anafundzi makimuthuwa Jesu kinjama machendamuza makiamba Bwana kwanoni sino k'ahudimire kumwamboza ye p'ep'o
Jesus answered You were not able to make the demon go out because your faith is too small Believe me when I tell you if your faith is only as big as a mustard seed you can say to this mountain Move from here to there and it will move You will be able to do anything,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Kuluhiro renu ni thithe ndosa k'amuzhadimire Ela namwambira ujeri siku mundihokala na kuluhiro thithe renye here katembe ka haradali mundadima kuwambira uu murima uhauke wende kut'u kungine nawo undakwenda K'akuna kit'u kindichokala k'achadimikika
About that time the followers came to Jesus and asked Who is the greatest in Gods kingdom,Vikara wakathi uryahu anafundzi makimuthuwa Jesu makimwamba Kahi za uthawali wa mulunguni mubomu ni hiye
Jesus called a little child to come to him He stood the child in front of the followers,Bai kabila Jesu k'adzadzigidzya akiiha muhoho muthithe akimuimisha ho mbere zao
Then he said The truth is you must change your thinking and become like little children If you dont do this you will never enter Gods kingdom,Akiamba Namwambira ujeri wenye kala k'amundagaluka na kukala here ahoho athithe k'amundawangira ng'o wo uthawali wa mulunguni
The greatest person in Gods kingdom is the one who makes himself humble like this child,Kila andegaluka na kudzitsereza dza zho zha yuyu muhoho iye nde mut'u mubomu kukira osi kahi za uthawali wa mulunguni
Whoever accepts a little child like this in my name is accepting me,Na mut'u yoyosi amuhokeraye muhoho dza yuyu kwa dzina rangu ananihokera mimi
If one of these little children believes in me and someone causes that child to sin it will be very bad for that person It would be better for them to have a millstone tied around their neck and be drowned in the deep sea,Ela mut'u yoyosi andiyemuhendya mumwenga wa aa athithe manikuluhirao ahende dambi ni baha afungwe lwalwa lwa singo atsufwe ko kahikahi ya bahari kwenye
I feel sorry for the people in the world because of the things that make people sin These things must happen but it will be very bad for anyone who causes them to happen,Shauri yao ao mandioahendya andziyao mahende dambi Majezo ni hatha gakale mumu dhuniani ela shauriye iye andiyegareha
If your hand or your foot makes you sin cut it off and throw it away It is better for you to lose part of your body and have eternal life than to have two hands and two feet and be thrown into the fire that burns forever,Kwa ut'u uwo wenye bai mukonowo ukikuhendya uhende dambi utose uutsuhe Hedu kigulucho kikikuhendya uhende dambi kitose ukitsuhe Kwani baha wangire uzimani na mukono mumwenga hedu na kigulu kimwenga kuriko utsufwe kahi za moho wa kare na kare na mikono miri hedu magulu mairi
If your eye makes you sin take it out and throw it away It is better for you to have only one eye and have eternal life than to have two eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell,Na dzitsoro rikikuhendya uhende dambi rishukule uritsuhe Kwani baha wangire uzimani na ch'ongo kuriko utsufwe kahi za moho wa Jehanamu
Be careful Dont think these little children are not important I tell you that these children have angels in heaven And those angels are always with my Father in heaven,Dzimanyirireni sana p'ore mukaadharau ahoho athithe kwani malaika a kwao ko mulunguni ma mbere za Baba ariye mulunguni
The Son of Man came to save lost people,Kwani Mwana wa Mudamu wakudzaokola kirichongamika
If a man has 100 sheep but one of the sheep is lost what will he do He will leave the other 99 sheep on the hill and go look for the lost sheep Right,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Mut'u akikala ana ng'ondzi gana mwenga gonya mwenga ikangamike munaona nikuhendadze Samba nikuziricha zo mirongo chenda na chenda akendaimala yo idziyongamika hatha akayona
And if he finds the lost sheep he is happier about that one sheep than about the 99 sheep that were never lost I can assure you,Na ninamwambira ujeri akiyona andakala na raha nayo zhomu hatha kukira zo mirongo chenda na chenda zirizo k'azingamikire
in the same way your Father in heaven does not want any of these little children to be lost,Na vizho ndo virizho hatha kwa Mulungu Babiyehu wa mulunguni Iye k'endzi aa ahoho athithe mangamike hatha mumwenga
If your brother or sister in Gods family does something wrong go and tell them what they did wrong Do this when you are alone with them If they listen to you then you have helped them to be your brother or sister again,Ndugu akikukosera muthuwe wiri wenu ukamuzhagazhe umwambire makosage Akigakubali ni vidzo undakala udzamupata
But if they refuse to listen go to them again and take one or two people with you Then there will be two or three people who will be able to tell all that happened,Kala k'andagakubali mala mut'u mumwenga hedu airi mwende nyosini ili kila neno rindironenwa rikale na mashahidhi airi hedu ahahu
If they refuse to listen to them tell the church And if they refuse to listen to the church treat them as you would treat someone who does not know God or who is a tax collector,Akikala k'andakubali enda ukariambire kanisa Akikubali vidzo k'akubalire muhalire mut'u yuyahu dza ungazhomuhalira mut'u asiyemumanya Mulungu hedu here muthozi wa kodi
I can assure you that when you speak judgment here on earth it will be Gods judgment And when you promise forgiveness here on earth it will be Gods forgiveness,Nami namwambira ujeri kukala kila mundichokifunga haha dhuniani hatha ko mulunguni nako kindakala kidzafungwa na kila mundichokivugula haha dhuniani hatha ko mulunguni nako kindakala kidzavugulwa
To say it another way if two of you on earth agree on anything you pray for my Father in heaven will do what you ask,Kidza at'u airi kahi zenu makikubaliana dzulu za ut'u wowosi mandiwouvoya haha dhuniani Babiyenu wa mulunguni andaahendera
Yes if two or three people are together believing in me I am there with them,Kwani at'u airi hedu ahahu mathungananaho kwa dzina rangu nindakala hamwenga nao
Then Peter came to Jesus and asked Lord when someonewont stop doing wrong to me how many times must I forgive them Seven times,Jesu arihogonya kunena P'et'ero akimuza akimwamba Bwana mwandzangu akinikosera kwenda-kwenda nimusamehe hatha k'ana nyingahi Vidze nimusamehe k'ana fungahe
Jesus answered I tell you you must forgive them more than seven times You must continue to forgive them even if they do wrong to you seventyseven times,Jesu akimudzigidzya akimwamba Hatha bule simusamehe k'ana fungahe thu musamehe k'ana mirongo mifungahe mara fungahe
So Gods kingdom is like a king who decided to collect the money his servants owed him,Kidza Jesu akiamba Ndo hatha uthawali wa mulunguni udzahalana na muthawali mumwenga ariyekala anamala kuhenda isabu za p'esa arizoap'a ahumikie
The king began to collect his money One servant owed him several thousand poundsof silver,K'ona shuhuli iyo irihoandza thu akireherwa muhumikiwe mumwenga ariyekala anamwisa t'alant'a alifu kumi
He was not able to pay the money to his master the king So the master ordered that he and everything he owned be sold even his wife and children The money would be used to pay the king what the servant owed,Na kwa kukala were k'adima kuziriha ye muthawali akiamuru kukala aguzwe hamwenga na adamue osi na vit'uzhe zhosi ili zo p'esa zindizopatikana zirihe ro dheni
But the servant fell on his knees and begged Be patient with me I will pay you everything I owe,Ela ye muhumiki akimugwerera maguluni ye muthawali akimuvoya akiamba Bwana kala radhi nami unip'e muda nami ndakuriha p'esazo zosi
The master felt sorry for him So he told the servant he did not have to pay He let him go free,K'uzhona ye muthawali moyo ukimutika madzi hatha ro dheni akimusamehe na akimuvugula akimurichira
Later that same servant found another servant who owed him a hundred silver coins He grabbed him around the neck and said Pay me the money you owe me,Ela kula haho kare achendamona muhumiki mwandziwe ariyekala anamwisa dinari gana mwenga thu K'uzhona akimugwavukira kare gwa akimugwira mumiro Cha Niriha p'esa zangu
The other servant fell on his knees and begged him Be patient with me I will pay you everything I owe,Bai ye mwandziwe akimugwerera maguluni akimwamba Kala radhi nami unip'e muda nami ndakuriha p'esazo
But the first servant refused to be patient He told the judge that the other servant owed him money and that servant was put in jail until he could pay everything he owed,ela akikahala kamare Akimuhala akimuhirika jela achendafungwa muhaka ho andihomarigiza kuriha
All the other servants saw what happened They felt very sorry for the man So they went and told their master everything that happened,Vikara ahumiki andziye marihoona viryahu mashikithika zhomu hatha machendamusema kwa muthawali
Then the master called his servant in and said You evil servant You begged me to forgive your debt and I said you did not have to pay anything,Bai muthawali arihosikira uvoro uryahu wamwiha mara mwenga yuyahu muhumiki ariyekala wamusamehe akimwamba We kumba u muthiriri vivi we Waniririra nami nikikusamehe dheniro rosi
So you should have given that other man who serves with you the same mercy I gave you,ela mbona we ye mwandziyo k'umuonerere mbazi dza vizho nirizhokuonera mbazi
The master was very angry so he put the servant in jail to be punished And he had to stay in jail until he could pay everything he owed,K'uzhona ye muthawali akitsukirwa zhomu hatha akiaiha shikari a jela madze mamuhale makamufunge muhaka ho andihomarigiza kuriha ro dhenire
This king did the same as my heavenly Father will do to you You must forgive your brother or sister with all your heart or my heavenly Father will not forgive you,Na vizho zhenye ndizho andizhohenda Baba wa mulunguni kala k'amundaasamehe andziyenu na moyo mumwenga
After Jesus said all these things he left Galilee He went into the area of Judea on the other side of the Jordan River,Vikara Jesu arihogonya kufundisha anafundzie dzulu za kusameheana wambola Galilaya achenda hatha achangira jimbo ra Judea kuvuka muho wa Jorodani
Many people followed him Jesus healed the sick people there,Bai makundi-makundi ga at'u makimuthuwa kuko naye akiahoza akongo ao
Some Pharisees came to Jesus They tried to make him say something wrong They asked him Is it right for a man to divorce his wife for any reason he chooses,Bai Mafarisayo makidzamujeza makimuza Vidze ni hachi mut'u kumuricha muchewe kwa sababu yoyosi
Jesus answered Surely you have read this in the Scriptures When God made the world he made people male and female,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Vidze k'amudzashoma kukala ye ariyeaumba ho chaho waaumba muche na mulume
And God said That is why a man will leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife And the two people will become one,Kidza akiamba Kwa ut'u uu mut'u andamuricha babaye na mameye agwirane na muchewe na ao airi mandakala mwiri mumwenga
So they are no longer two but one God has joined them together so no one should separate them,Bai madzauya si airi kaheri ni mwiri mumwenga Kwa vizho adzichokigwizanya Mulungu mudamu asikitose bule
The Pharisees asked Then why did Moses give a command allowing a man to divorce his wife by writing a certificate of divorce,Marihosikira vizho o Mafarisayo makiamba Ni kwanoni Musa walagiza kukala kala unamala kumuricha mucheo niumup'e cheti cha kurichana gonya umuriche
Jesus answered Moses allowed you to divorce your wives because you refused to accept Gods teaching But divorce was not allowed in the beginning,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Musa wamuruhusu muriche ache enu kwa kukala mu at'u a singo nyomu ela ho kwandza were si vizho bule
I tell you that whoever divorces his wife except for the problem of sexual sin and marries another woman is guilty of adultery,Na vivi ninamwambira kukala mut'u yoyosi amurichaye muchewe isihokala kwa kosa ra uzindzi na kuhala muche mungine anazinga
The followers said to Jesus If that is the only reason a man can divorce his wife it is better not to marry,Bai o anafundzie marihosikira viryahu makimwamba Jesu Kala ni vizho be hatha si baha kuthuwa kukala mudhaka kamare bai
He answered This statement is true for some but not for everyoneonly for those who have been given this gift,Ela Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Munaona kila mut'u anadima kukala mudhaka nwi Hatha ni aryahu mariojaliwa ni Mulungu makale vizho ndo mazhadimao
There are different reasons why some men dont marrySome were born without the ability to produce children Others were made that way later in life And others have given up marriage because of Gods kingdom This is for anyone who is able to accept it,Kwani kuna at'u mario k'amadima kuhala ache kwa kukala mazhalwa kare k'aviamba kit'u Angine o k'amadima kuhala kwa kukala mathulwa Ela angine o k'amahala kuhendza kwao kare ili madzilazhe kamare-kamare kahi za uhumiki wa uthawali wa mulunguni Bai azhadimaye naavihende
Then the people brought their little children to Jesus so that he could lay his hands on them to bless them and pray for them When the followers saw this they told the people to stop bringing their children to him,Wakathi mumwenga at'u mareha ahoho athithe kwa Jesu ili adze aaikire mikono aavoyere ela anafundzie makiadumulira
But Jesus said Let the little children come to me Dont stop them because Gods kingdom belongs to people who are like these children,Ela Jesu akiamba Hatha musiazizeni bule o ahoho aricheni madze kwangu kwa kukala wo uthawali wa mulunguni be ni wa at'u dza vizho ao
After Jesus blessed the children he left there,Nao marihokudza akiaikira mikono gonya akihauka
A man came to Jesus and asked Teacher what good thing must I do to have eternal life,Siku mwenga mwanamulume mumwenga wakwenda kwa Jesu achendamuza akiamba Mwalimu ni ut'u wani udzo nidimao kuuhenda hatha nami nangire uzima wa kare na kare
Jesus answered Why do you ask me about what is good Only God is good But if you want to have eternal life obey the laws commands,Bai Jesu akimudzigidzya akimwamba Kwanoni unanuza mimi dzulu za udzo Kuna mudzo mumwenga thu ela ukimala kwangira uzimani gwira malagizo gosi nawe undawangira
The man asked Which ones,Iye mwanamulume akimuza Jesu akiamba Malagizo higo Jesu akimudzigidzya akimwamba Usalage usizinge usiiye usimboze ushahidhi wa ulongo
you must respect your father and motherand love your neighborthe same as you love yourself,aishimu babayo na mameyo na muhendze mwandziyo here udzihendzazho mwenye
The young man said I have obeyed all these commands What else do I need,Ye muvulana akiamba Gago be nagagwira hangu kapindi Vino nahungukirwa ni noni
Jesus answered If you want to be perfect then go and sell all that you own Give the money to the poor and you will have riches in heaven Then come and follow me,Jesu akimwamba Kala unamala ukamilike kaguze vit'uzho zhosi na zo p'esa uap'e akiya Nawe undakala na akiba ko mulunguni Na ukigonya kuhenda vizho ndzo unithuwe
But when the young man heard Jesus tell him to give away his money he was sad He didnt want to do this because he was very rich So he left,Ye muvulana arihosikira vizho akihauka k'ana raha mana were ana mali nyinji zhomu
Then Jesus said to his followers The truth is it will be very hard for a rich person to enter Gods kingdom,Vikara ye mwanamulume arihouka Jesu akinena na o anafundzie akiamba Namwambira ujeri vindakala vikomu sana kwa thajiri kwangira kahi za uthawali wa mulunguni
Yes I tell you it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter Gods kingdom,Ninanena kaheri ni rahisi ngamira kukira kahi za t'undu ya shindano kuriko thajiri kwangira kahi za uthawali wa Mulungu
The followers were amazed to hear this They asked Then who can be saved,Marihosikira vizho o anafundzie makingalala zhomu makiamba Hatha ni h'ani adimaye kuokoka be zho
Jesus looked at them and said This is something that people cannot do But God can do anything,Marihouza vizho Jesu akialola gonya akiamba Kwa nguvu za mudamu vizho k'azhadimikika ela kwa Mulungu kila kit'u kinadimikika
Peter said to him We left everything we had and followed you So what will we have,P'et'ero akimwamba Lola fwaricha zhosi hukikuthuwa uwe vino hundapatani
Jesus said to them When the time of the new world comes the Son of Man will sit on his great and glorious throne And I can promise that you who followed me will sit on twelve thrones and you will judge the twelve tribes of Israel,Jesu akimudzigidzya akiamba Namwambira ujeri haho Mwana wa Mudamu andihokudza kelesi dzulu za kihi cha endzi kahi za wo urumwengu musha ninwi mundakelesi dzulu ya vihi kumi na viri zha endzi na muhukumu zo kabila kumi na mbiri za Iziraeli
Everyone who has left houses brothers sisters father mother children or farms to follow me will get much more than they left And they will have eternal life,Na kila ariyericha nyumbaze na azhazie na nduguze na adamue na mundawe kwa ut'u wa dzina rangu zho arizhoviricha andarifwa mara gana kidza andapata uzima wa kare na kare
Many people who are first now will be last in the future And many who are last now will be first in the future,Ela anji mario vivi ni a kwandza mandakala a mwisho na a mwisho mandakala a kwandza
Jesus and his followers were coming closer to Jerusalem But first they stopped at Bethphage at the hill called the Mount of Olives From there Jesus sent two of his followers into town,Vikara Jesu na anafundzie marihokala ma hehi na Jerusalemu mafika Beth'ifage kuko Murima wa Mizeituni Bai marihofika kuko Jesu akihuma anafundzie airi akiamba
He said to them Go to the town you can see there When you enter it you will find a donkey with her colt Untie them both and bring them to me,Endani hatha mwangire ko kadzidzi mudzikoerekezana nako Mukifika thu mundaona ndzowe na mwanawe madzafungwa Avuguleni munirehere
If anyone asks you why you are taking the donkeys tell them The Master needs them He will send them back soon,Mut'u yoyosi akimuza mwambireni kukala Bwana ana haja nao Naye andaarichira mara mwenga
This showed the full meaning of what the prophet said,Bai gosi gahendeka ili garyahu maneno garigonenwa ni nabii gathimire Kwani nabii mumwenga wanena akiamba
Tell the people of Zion,Ambireni at'u a mudzi wa Sayuni kukala
The followers went and did what Jesus told them to do,K'uzhona o anafundzi makiuka na machendahenda here marizhokala madzalagizwa ni Jesu
They brought the mother donkey and the young donkey to him They covered the donkeys with their coats and Jesus sat on them,Makimureha ye ndzowe na mwanawe makihala maamba gao makihandika ho dzulu zao na Jesu akikwera
On the way to Jerusalem many people spread their coats on the road for Jesus Others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road,At'u anji makihala maamba gao makigahandika mo ngirani angine o makithema vitai zha mihi makivihandika mo ngirani
Some of the people were walking ahead of Jesus Others were walking behind him They all shouted,Bai go makundi ga at'u mariokala mbere na mariokala nyuma osi makikwacha kuimba kwa nguvu makiamba
Then Jesus went into Jerusalem All the people in the city were confused They asked Who is this man,Jesu arihongira Jerusalemu mudzi wosi wadudumuka na at'u makiuza Ni h'ani ye
The crowds following Jesus answered This is Jesus He is the prophet from the town of Nazareth in Galilee,Bai o at'u mariokala na Jesu makidzigidzya makiamba Ni Jesu yuyahu nabii wa kula Nazareth'i kuko Galilaya
Jesus went into the Temple area He threw out all those who were selling and buying things there He turned over the tables that belonged to those who were exchanging different kinds of money And he turned over the benches of those who were selling doves,Jesu arihongira kahi za ro Hekalu waainga at'u osi mariokala makigula na kuguza vit'u mo Hekaluni Kidza akihala zo meza za abandi a p'esa na vihi zha aguzi a magiya akivipetula-petula zhosi
Jesus said to them The Scriptures say My Temple will be called a house of prayerBut you are changing it into a hiding place for thieves,Gonya akiamba Zhaorwa kukala Nyumba yangu indaifwa nyumba ya mavoyo ela ninwi munaihendya p'anga ya kuzama aivi
Some blind people and some who were crippled came to Jesus in the Temple area Jesus healed them,Bai at'u anji mariokala k'amaona na vidende makimuthuwa Jesu mo Hekaluni naye akidzaahoza
The leading priests and the teachers of the law saw the wonderful things he was doing And they saw the children praising him in the Temple area The children were shouting Praise to the Son of David All this made the priests and the teachers of the law angry,Ela vikara o alombi abomu na alimu a Sheria marihoona go maut'u mabomu arigokala akigahenda Jesu na zho ahoho marizhokala manapiga londzo na kuamba Mup'eni nguma Mwana wa Daudi mo Hekaluni makitsukirwa sana
They asked Jesus Do you hear what these children are saying,Bai makimuza Jesu makiamba Unaasikira o ahoho zho manenazho Akiadzigidzya akiamba Ee ninaasikira Ela go Maoro gaambago Wapata nguma kwa makanwa ga ahoho athithe na ana atsanga k'amudzagashoma
Then Jesus left them and went out of the city to Bethany where he spent the night,Naye arihogonya kunena vizho akimwambola mumo Jerusalemu achendalala mudzi wa Beth'ania
Early the next morning Jesus was going back to the city He was very hungry,Kunadzacha Jesu warauka na madzach'a akikwacha kuuya Jerusalemu Bai mumo ngirani akisikira ndzala
He saw a fig tree beside the road and went to get a fig from it But there were no figs on the tree There were only leaves So Jesus said to the tree You will never again produce fruit The tree immediately dried up and died,Akiona mutini ho k'anda-k'anda za ngira Achendaulola chamba una matunda ela k'apatire mana were u gi makodza mahuhu Jesu akiulani uryahu muhi akiamba Nawe k'undazhala matunda kaheri Nawo haho na haho kare ukiuma
When the followers saw this they were very surprised They asked How did the fig tree dry up and die so quickly,K'uzhona o anafundzi marihoona viryahu machangalala zhomu makiamba Muhi uno be tha udzanyaladze haraka vino
Jesus answered The truth is if you have faith and no doubts you will be able to do the same as I did to this tree And you will be able to do more You will be able to say to this mountain Go mountain fall into the sea And if you have faith it will happen,Ela Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Ninamwambira ujeri kukala mukikuluhira bila kukala na k'ai-k'ai mundahenda ut'u dza uu nidziwouhenda na hatha zaidhi Mundadima hatha kuwambira uu murima Ng'oka ukagwe baharini Na vindakala vizho zhenye
If you believe you will get anything you ask for in prayer,Mukikala na kuluhiro mundahokera kila mundichokivoya
Jesus went into the Temple area While Jesus was teaching there the leading priests and the older leaders of the people came to him They said Tell us What authority do you have to do these things you are doing Who gave you this authority,Bai Jesu akiuya kahi za ro Hekalu na akikwatya kufundisha Arihokala akufundishani alombi abomu na athumia a Kiyahudi makidzamuza makimwamba Unahenda maut'u gano kwa wadimi wani Na ni h'ani ariyekup'a wadimi uno
Jesus answered I will ask you a question too If you answer me then I will tell you what authority I have to do these things,Jesu akiamba Hatha mimi nindamuza swali mukiridzigidzya nindamwambira ni wadimi wani nihenderao maut'u gaga
Tell me When John baptized people did his authority come from God or was it only from other people,Wo wadimi ariohumira Johana kubat'izira at'u walahi Wala kwa Mulungu hedu wala kwa anadamu O alombi abomu na o athumia makiojana makiamba Fukiamba wala kwa Mulungu andafuza Kwanoni k'amumukuluhirire
But we cant say Johns baptism was from someone else We are afraid of the people because they all believe John was a prophet,Na hukiamba Wala kwa mudamu fu hatharini mana aa at'u osini manakuluhira kukala Johana were ni nabii
So they told Jesus We dont know the answer,Kwa vizho makimwamba Jesu K'ahumanya Jesu naye akiamba Hatha mimi nami sindamwambira wo wadimi nihumirao kuhendera maut'u gaga
Tell me what you think about this There was a man who had two sons He went to the first son and said Son go and work today in the vineyard,Jesu arihogonya kuadzigidzya o alombi abomu na o athumia waambozera mufano akiamba Nambirani ut'u umwenga hedu Kwakala na mut'u mumwenga ariyekala na athana airi Siku mwenga akimwamba ye muthana mukulu Rero enda ukarime ko munda wa mizabibu
The son answered I will not go But later he decided he should go and he went,Mwana anambola kunena akiamba Aa sindakwenda mino Ela gonya ye mukulu akigalukwa ni moyo hatha achenda
Then the father went to the other son and said Son go and work today in the vineyard He answered Yes sir I will go and work But he did not go,Kula haho ye bimut'u achenda kwa ye wa hiri achendamwamba Rero enda ukarime ko munda wa mizabibu Ye mwana akiamba H'aya ndakwenda Ela k'endere bule
Which of the two sons obeyed his father,Vikara kahi za ano airi ni hiye ariyehenda malagizo ga babaye Makiamba Ni iye mukulu Jesu akiamba H'aya hatha mimi nami namwambira ujeri wenye kukala athozi a kodi na malaya manangira kahi za uthawali wa Mulungu mbere zenu
John came showing you the right way to live and you did not believe him But the tax collectors and prostitutes believed John You saw that happening but you would not change You still refused to believe him,Kwani Johana Mubat'izaji wakudzamwanyesa ngira ya hachi ela k'amumukuluhirire athozi a kodi na malaya o makimukuluhira Nwi ng'o kamare hatha bada ya kuona kukala andziyenu madzamukuluhira kidza nwi k'amugalukirwe ni mioyo
Listen to this story There was a man who owned a vineyard He put a wall around the field and dug a hole for a winepress Then he built a tower He leased the land to some farmers and then left on a trip,Bai Jesu arihogonya kunena vizho akiamba Sirikizani nimwambire fumbo ringine bai Kwakala na mwenye nyumba mumwenga ariyerima mundawe akiulaya mizabibu akiudengereshera wiyo akitsimba wina wa kukamulira zabibu gonya akiaka uringo wa kurindira Kugonya vizho akiukodisha kwa ak'urima gonya ye mwenye achenda ts'i nyingine
Later it was time for the grapes to be picked So the man sent his servants to the farmers to get his share of the grapes,Makathi ga mavuno garihofika waahuma ahumikie mende makagerwe muthalowe wa zabibu ni o ak'urima
But the farmers grabbed the servants and beat one They killed another one and then stoned to death a third servant,Bai o ak'urima marihoaona o ahumiki mahala mumwenga makimupiga mumwenga makimukot'a mawe na mumwenga makimwalaga
So the man sent some other servants to the farmers He sent more servants than he sent the first time But the farmers did the same thing to them that they did the first time,Bai ye mwenye munda akihuma ahumiki angine anji kukira o arioahuma kwandza Ela hatha ao nao k'amapatire kit'u kwani mahendwa dza zho zha andziyao
So the man decided to send his son to the farmers He said The farmers will respect my son,Ye mwenye munda arihoona vizho akiamba Charo kiki huriza nimuhume mwanangu Bila shaka iye mandamuishimu
But when the farmers saw the son they said to each other This is the owners son This vineyard will be his If we kill him it will be ours,Ela o ak'urima marihomona ye mwana akudzani makiamba Yuno be hatha se andiyeuhala ufwa uno munda Alume nahumwalage yuyu uu munda ukale wehu
So the farmers took the son threw him out of the vineyard and killed him,Makimuhala kare makimwamboza ndze ya wo munda makimwalaga
So what will the owner of the vineyard do to these farmers when he comes,Vikara munaona ye mwenye munda akidza andaahendadze arya ak'urima
The Jewish priests and leaders said He will surely kill those evil men Then he will lease the land to other farmers who will give him his share of the crop at harvest time,Makidzigidzya makiamba Andaahala o ak'urima aalage gonya wo munda aap'e ak'urima angine mandiokala makimup'a muthalowe wa zabibu kila mavunaho
Jesus said to them Surely you have read this in the Scriptures,Jesu akiamba Hedu k'amudzangwe kugashoma go Maoro gaambago
So I tell you that Gods kingdom will be taken away from you It will be given to people who do what God wants in his kingdom,Kwa vizho be namwambira kamare kukala wo uthawali wa Mulungu mundauhokwa na ugerwe at'u mandioishi maisha ga kumufwahiza Mulungu
Whoever falls on this stone will be broken And it will crush anyone it falls on,Na iye andiyerigwerera iwe riro andabandika-bandika Ela mut'u yoyosi rindiyemugwerera rindamusaga tikitiki
When the leading priests and the Pharisees heard these stories they knew that Jesus was talking about them,O alombi abomu na o Mafarisayo marihosikira go mafumbo ga Jesu makimanya kukala manaambwa ao
They wanted to find a way to arrest Jesus But they were afraid to do anything because the people believed that Jesus was a prophet,Kwa vizho makijeza kumugwira mamushithaki ela makishindwa kwa kukala were manaagoha o at'u Kwani o at'u were manamona Jesu ni nabii
Jesus used some more stories to teach the people He said,Bai Jesu akienderera kufundisha at'u kwa kuhumira mafumbo Akimboza fumbo ringine kaheri akiamba
Gods kingdom is like a king who prepared a wedding feast for his son,Uthawali wa mulunguni udzahalana na muthawali mumwenga ariyekala anamuusira harusi muthanawe
He invited some people to the feast When it was ready the king sent his servants to tell the people to come But they refused to come to the kings feast,Bai arihokala a thayari waahuma ahumikie makaaihe aryahu at'u ariokala waasunga ela k'amendere
Then the king sent some more servants He said to them I have already invited the people So tell them that my feast is ready I have killed my best bulls and calves to be eaten Everything is ready Come to the wedding feast,Vikara arihoona viryahu akihuma ahumikie angine akiamba Kaambireni kukala nidzatsindza ndzao zangu kare hamwenga na vidzao zhangu zha kunona na nidzathayarisha kila kit'u hatha masere ao madze marye harusi
But when the servants told the people to come they refused to listen They all went to do other things One went to work in his field and another went to his business,Marihokwendaambirwa mavihalira madhe-madhe Kila mut'u akithuwa shuhulize Mumwenga akigwira ngira achenda mundani mungine achenda biasharani kwakwe
Some of the other people grabbed the servants beat them and killed them,Angine o makiagwira o ahumiki makiahendera makuruhu na makialaga
The king was very angry He sent his army to kill those who murdered his servants And the army burned their city,Muthawali arihosikira vizho akidzalwa ni k'oro akihuma shikarie machendaalaga osi o alagi na wo mudzi wao makiuocha
After that the king said to his servants The wedding feast is ready I invited those people but they were not good enough to come to my feast,Bai bada ya vizho ye muthawali akiahuma ahumikie kaheri akiamba Lolani harusi i thayari ela o nirioasunga tha were k'amavirya kamare
So go to the street corners and invite everyone you see Tell them to come to my feast,Kwa vizho endani ko ngira-ngira na kila mut'u mundiyemona musungeni adze Rehani at'u anji zhadimikikazho
So the servants went into the streets They gathered all the people they could find good and bad alike and brought them to where the wedding feast was ready And the place was filled with guests,O ahumiki machenda mo ngira-ngira makireha kila namuna ya at'u adzo na ai Hatha vinatululia yo nyumba ya harusi ikidzala thele at'u
When the king came in to meet the guests he saw a man there who was not dressed in the right clothes for a wedding,Vikara wakathi arihokwendaalola o ajeni akipesa mut'u mumwenga ariyekala k'avalire nguwo ya harusi bule
The king said Friend how were you allowed to come in here You are not wearing the right clothes But the man said nothing,Akimuza akimwamba Musena udzangiradze muno bila kuvala nguwo ya harusi Ye mut'u akisala wa kanwa ngh'aa
So the king told some servants Tie this mans hands and feet Throw him out into the darkness where people are crying and grinding their teeth with pain,Bai ye muthawali akialagiza ahumikie akiamba Muhaleni mumufunge mikono na magulu mumutsuhe ko ndze kizani Na kuko kundakala na kiriro na kwafuna meno
Yes many people are invited But only a few are chosen,Kwani ni anji masungwao ela o matsagulwao ni achache
Then the Pharisees left the place where Jesus was teaching They made plans to catch him saying something wrong,Ndo o Mafarisayo machenda njama ili makapange viryahu mandizhomuhega Jesu na maneno ga kwakwe hatha mapate ut'u wa kumushithakira
They sent some men to Jesus They were some of their own followers and some from the group called Herodians They said Teacher we know you are an honest man We know you teach the truth about Gods way You are not afraid of what others think about you All people are the same to you,Bai marihogonya kupanga makiahuma anafundzi ao na at'u a Herode Bai at'u ao makwenda hatha kwa Jesu machendamwamba Mwalimu hunamanya kukala uwe u mujeri Unafundisha at'u zho Mulungu ahendzazho maishi kwa ngira ya ujeri kamare K'ugoha mut'u yoyosi hatha kala ana cheo chani Mana k'ulola at'u kwa uso
So tell us what you think Is it right to pay taxes to Caesar or not,Bai fwambire Kuriha kodi kwa Kaisari ni karakara hedu si karakara
But Jesus knew that these men were trying to trick him So he said You hypocrites Why are you trying to catch me saying something wrong,Jesu arihosikira vizho akiimanya kare yo njama yao mbii mariyokala madzapanga akiamba H'enwi adzihendyi Kwanoni munanihega
Show me a coin used for paying the tax They showed Jesus a silver coin,Nanyesani yo p'esa murihirayo kodi hedu Makimboza dinari makimup'a
Then he asked Whose picture is on the coin And whose name is written on the coin,Bai Jesu akiauza akiamba Ino sura iriyo muno p'esani na ro dzina ni zha h'ani
They answered It is Caesars picture and Caesars name,Makiamba Ni zha Kaisari Jesu akiambira Kwa vizho zha Kaisari mup'eni Kaisari mwenye na zha Mulungu nazho mup'eni Mulungu
When they heard what Jesus said they were amazed They left him and went away,Nao marihosikira vizho makingalala sana gonya sio makimuricha haho makihauka
That same day some Sadducees came to Jesus Sadducees believe that no one will rise from death The Sadducees asked Jesus a question,Siku iyo vizho Masadukayo nao makidza kwa Jesu At'u aa Masadukayo k'amakuluhira kukala kuna kufufuka Makimuthuwa Jesu makimwamba
They said Teacher Moses told us that if a married man dies and had no children his brother must marry the woman Then they will have children for the dead brother,Mwalimu Musa waamba kukala mut'u akifwa kabila kupata ahoho ye muchewe ahalwe ufwa ni nduguye ili amuzhalire ahoho ye mufwadzi
There were seven brothers among us The first brother married but died He had no children So his brother married the woman,Vikara wakathi mumwenga hatoa ndugu afungahe haha Ye mukulu akihala muche na akinongeka kabila kupata ahoho Kwa vizho ye muche akihalwa ufwa ni nduguye
Then the second brother also died The same thing happened to the third brother and all the other brothers,Iye naye akifwa bila kupata ahoho Bai zhaenderera vizho hatha o ndugu afungahe osini makigoma kufwa hatha akisala ye muche
The woman was the last to die,Iye naye akiathuwa
But all seven men had married her So when people rise from death whose wife will she be,Vikara at'u mandihofufuka yuno mwanamuche andakala mukaza h'ani na kila ndugu wamuhala
Jesus answered You are so wrong You dont know what the Scriptures say And you dont know anything about Gods power,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Munahenda makosa kwa kukala k'amumanya Maoro kidza k'amumanya nguvu za Mulungu zirizho
At the time when people rise from death there will be no marriage People will not be married to each other Everyone will be like the angels in heaven,Kwani makathi at'u makifufuka kundakala k'akuna kuhala hedu kuhalwa At'u osi mandakala here malaika a mulunguni marizho
Surely you have read what God said to you about people rising from death,Na dzulu za at'u kufufulwa k'amudzahashoma harya hat'u Mulungu arihonena nanwi akiamba
God said I am the God of Abraham the God of Isaac and the God of JacobSo they were not still dead because he is the God only of living people,Ndimi Mulungu wa Burahemu na Isaka na Jakobu Mulungu ni Mulungu wa at'u mario moyo si wa at'u mariofwa
When the people heard this they were amazed at Jesus teaching,Na o at'u marihosikira zho Jesu afundishazho makingalala kamare
The Pharisees learned that Jesus had made the Sadducees look so foolish that they stopped trying to argue with him So the Pharisees had a meeting,Ela Mafarisayo marihosikira kukala Jesu adzaanyamaza o Masadukayo makithunganana kaheri
Then one of them an expert in the Law of Moses asked Jesus a question to test him,Bai mumwenga wao ariye were ni mwalimu wa Sheria akimuza Jesu swali ra kumujeza
He said Teacher which command in the law is the most important,Akiamba Mwalimu amuri bomu kukira zosi ni hiyo kahi za Sheria
Jesus answered Love the Lord your God with all your heart all your soul and all your mind,K'uzhona Jesu akimudzigidzya akimwamba Muhendze Bwana Mulunguo na moyowo wosi na rohoro rosi na akilizo zosi
This is the first and most important command,Ii ndo amuri ya kwandza na bomu kukira zosi
And the second command is like the first Love your neighborthe same as you love yourself,Na ya hiri yenye mana dza iyo ni Muhendze mwandziyo here udzihendzazho mwenye
All of the law and the writings of the prophets take their meaning from these two commands,Amuri zizi mbiri ndo musinji wa Sheria zosi za Musa na mafundisho gosi ga manabii
So while the Pharisees were together Jesus asked them a question,Vikara o Mafarisayo marihokala machere kahi za wo muthunganano wao Jesu akiuza swali akiamba
He said What do you think about the Messiah Whose son is he,Yuno Masihi nwi munamona ni mwana wa h'ani Makiamba Ni mwana wa Daudi
Jesus said to them Then why did David call him Lord David was speaking by the power of the Spirit He said,Jesu akiamba Kala ni vizho mbona Daudi arihokala adzadzalwa ni nguvu za Roho Mweri wamwiha ye Masihi Bwana Kwani Daudi waamba
The Lord God said to my Lord,Bwana Mulungu wamwamba Bwana wangu
David calls the Messiah Lord So how can he be Davids son,Bai kala Daudi wamwiha Masihi Bwana anadimadze kukala mwanawe
None of the Pharisees could answer Jesus question And after that day no one was brave enough to ask him any more questions,Swali riri rikiashinda kamare Na kula siku iyo k'ahana mut'u hatha mumwenga ariyedzambozeza kumuza swali Jesu kaheri
Then Jesus spoke to the people and to his followers He said,Jesu arihogonya kunena vizho akiambira o anafundzie hamwenga na ro kundi ra at'u akiamba
The teachers of the law and the Pharisees have the authority to tell you what the Law of Moses says,Alimu a Sheria na Mafarisayo ndio mariohala hat'u ha Musa Manamufundisha na kumueleza Sheria ziambazho
So you should obey them Do everything they tell you to do But their lives are not good examples for you to follow They tell you to do things but they dont do those things themselves,Kwa vizho gagwirenit'o go mafundisho gao ela mahendo gao musigathuwe bule Mana zho mafundishazho si zho mahendazho bule
They make strict rules that are hard for people to obey They try to force others to obey all their rules But they themselves will not try to follow any of those rules,Kazi yao ni kufunga mizigo miziho-miziho isiyotsukulika na kuabagaza at'u angine maitsukule bila hatha kwangiza mukono
The only reason they do what they do is for other people to see them They make the little Scripture boxesthey wear bigger and bigger And they make the tasselson their prayer clothes long enough for people to notice them,Kila kit'u mandichokihenda manakihenda ili maonewe Lolani zho vidude zhenye Maoro maeri mo vidhanguni na mikononi mwao ni vibomu kukira zha at'u angine H'e yo mitsa ya zo k'andzu zao samba ni mire kukira ya andziyao
These men love to have the places of honor at banquets and the most important seats in the synagogues,Hat'u hajani manahendza kukelesi kuko mbere-mbere kwenye ajeni a ishima Kahi za masinagogi ko undaaona makelesi kuko mbere
They love for people to show respect to them in the marketplaces and to call them Teacher,Makifika masokoni manahendza kulamuswa-lamuswa na ishima ni at'u na kuifwa Alimu
But you must not be called Teacher You are all equal as brothers and sisters You have only one Teacher,Ela mino ninamwambira kukala musikubali kuifwa Alimu kamare kwa kukala ninwi mu ndugu na mwalimu wenu ni mumwenga
And dont call anyone on earth Father You have one Father He is in heaven,Musihale mut'u yoyosi haha dhuniani mukamwiha Baba kwa kukala Babiyenu ni mumwenga thu naye a dzulu mulunguni
And you should not be called Master You have only one Master the Messiah,Kidza p'ore mukaifwa Abomu bule mana mubomu wenu ninwi ni mumwenga naye ni Masihi
Whoever serves you like a servant is the greatest among you,Ela ye mut'u mubomu kumukira nyosi suthi akale muhumiki wenu
People who think they are better than others will be made humble But people who humble themselves will be made great,Kwani kila andiyedzinula andatharamushwa ela andiyedzitharamusha andanulwa
It will be bad for you teachers of the law and you Pharisees You are hypocrites You close the way for people to enter Gods kingdom You yourselves dont enter and you stop those who are trying to enter,Shauri yenu ninwi Mafarisayo na alimu a Sheria kudzihendya kwenu nwi Munaafungira at'u masingire kahi za uthawali wa mulunguni Ninwi enye k'amwendzi kwangira na hatha aryahu mamalao kwangira nao munaaziza
It will be bad for you teachers of the law and you Pharisees You are hypocrites You cheat widows and take their homes Then you make long prayers so that people can see you So you will have a worse punishment,Shauri yenu ninwi alimu a Sheria na Mafarisayo kudzihendya kwenu nwi Munaahoka ache magungu vit'u zhao Gonya mukila haho munadzihendesha kwa kuvoya mavoyo mare-mare Adhabu yenu indakala k'ali zaidhi
It will be bad for you teachers of the law and you Pharisees You are hypocrites You travel across the seas and across different countries to find one person who will follow your ways When you find that person you make him worse than you are And you are so bad that you belong in hell,Shauri yenu ninwi alimu a Sheria na Mafarisayo kudzihendya kwenu nwi Mu thayari kuvuka bahari na kwenda ts'i za kure kwa kumala mwanafundzi mumwenga thu Ela mukimupata munamuhendya akale mui zaidhi na zo nafasi za kwangira Jehanamu zikale k'ana mbiri ya zo zenu
It will be bad for you teachers of the law and you Pharisees You guide the people but you are blind You say If anyone uses the name of the Temple to make a promise that means nothing But anyone who uses the gold that is in the Temple to make a promise must keep that promise,Shauri yenu ninwi vilongozi vipofu Mut'u akilaha kwa Hekalu munaamba kuko si kulaha ela munaamba kulaha jeri ni kwa mut'u adziyelaha kwa dhahabu ya Hekalu
You are blind fools Cant you see that the Temple is greater than the gold on it Its the Temple that makes the gold holy,Vipofu ajinga nwi Kibomu ni hicho Ni yo dhahabu hedu ni ro Hekalu Samba ro Hekalu ndiro rihendyayo yo dhahabu ikale eri
And you say If anyone uses the altar to make a promise that means nothing But anyone who uses the gift on the altar to make a promise must keep that promise,Munaamba kukala mut'u akilaha kwa cho kijaja cha kwambozera sadaka k'alahire kit'u Ela akilaha kwa yo sadaka iriyo ho kijajani munaamba kuko ndo kulaha jeri
You are blind Cant you see that the altar is greater than any gift on it Its the altar that makes the gift holy,Vipofu nwi cho kijaja na yo sadaka kibomu ni hicho Samba cho kijaja ndo kihendacho yo sadaka ikale eri
Whoever uses the altar to make a promise is really using the altar and everything on the altar,Kwa vizho mut'u alahaye kwa cho kijaja analaha kwa kicho kijaja hamwenga na vit'u zhosi vindizhombozwa haho
And anyone who uses the Temple to make a promise is really using the Temple and God who lives in it,Na mut'u akilaha kwa Hekalu analaha kwa riro Hekalu na kwa Mulungu ariye anakala mumo
Whoever uses heaven to make a promise is using Gods throne and the one who is seated on it,Na mut'u akilaha kwa dzulu mulunguni analaha kwa kihi cha uthawali cha Mulungu na kwa Mulungu ariye ndiye akikeresiraye cho kihi kicho
It will be bad for you teachers of the law and you Pharisees You are hypocrites You give God a tenth of the food you get even your mint dill and cuminBut you dont obey the really important teachings of the lawbeing fair showing mercy and being faithful These are the things you should do And you should also continue to do those other things,Shauri yenu ninwi alimu a Sheria na Mafarisayo kudzihendya kwenu nwi Munamboza fungu ra kumi hatha ra vilungo vithithe-vithithe here makodza ga kunuk'at'o na bizari ela go maut'u mabomu-mabomu kahi za Sheria go k'amugathuwa bule K'amuhenda hachi Mbazi na kuluhiro nazho k'amuna Munavirya mukale na hachi na mbazi na kuluhiro na gago mangine nago musigariche
You guide the people but you are blind Think about a man picking a little fly out of his drink and then swallowing a camel You are like that,Vilongozi vipofu nwi Munatsudza indzi ela ngamira ye munamumiza
It will be bad for you teachers of the law and you Pharisees You are hypocrites You wash clean the outside of your cups and dishes But inside they are full of what you got by cheating others and pleasing yourselves,Shauri yenu ninwi alimu a Sheria na Mafarisayo kudzihendya kwenu nwi Munahala kikombe na sahani munavigesa ko kwa ndze ela ko ndani kuthele unyang'anyi na ndani nyalamu
Pharisees you are blind First make the inside of the cup clean and good Then the outside of the cup will also be clean,Mafarisayo vipofu nwi Vigeseni ko ndani kwandza na ko kwa ndze kundakala kusafi
It will be bad for you teachers of the law and you Pharisees You are hypocrites You are like tombs that are painted white Outside they look fine but inside they are full of dead peoples bones and all kinds of filth,Shauri yenu ninwi alimu a Sheria na Mafarisayo kudzihendya kwenu nwi Mu here mbira zidzizohakwa ch'ok'aa Ukizilola ko ndze zinafwahiza ela ko ndani kuthele misoza ya at'u a kufwa na kila namuna ya ukolo
It is the same with you People look at you and think you are godly But on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and evil,Ninwi nanwi mu here zizo mbira At'u makimulola manamona mu ahachi hatha k'azhadimikika kudzi mu thele dambi na kudzihendya kunji
It will be bad for you teachers of the law and you Pharisees You are hypocrites You build tombs for the prophets And you show honor to the graves of the godly people who were killed,Shauri yenu ninwi alimu a Sheria na Mafarisayo kudzihendya kwenu nwi Munahala mbira za manabii na za at'u ahachi munazijengera na kuzidona
And you say If we had lived during the time of our ancestors we would not have helped them kill these prophets,na kuamba Kalaho ndiswi furioishi wakathi uwo wa akare ehu k'afungaalagire bule o manabii
So you give proof that you are descendants of those who killed the prophets,Na vizho muhendazho be munadzifunga enye mana munakubali kukala munambola kahi za lukolo luriloalaga o manabii
And you will finish the sin that your ancestors started,H'aya imarigizeni iyo kazi iriyoandzwa ni akare enu
You are snakes You are from a family of poisonous snakes You will not escape God You will all be judged guilty and go to hell,Nyoka nwi Kidza enye munaona mundathia kula kwa hukumu ya Jehanamu k'amundathia bule
So I tell you this I send to you prophets and teachers who are wise and know the Scriptures You will kill some of them You will hang some of them on crosses You will beat some of them in your synagogues You will chase them from town to town,Mana hatha ninamurehera manabii na alimu na at'u angine alachu Ela ninwi mundaahala mualage angine muasulubishe na angine muapige vikotho kahi za masinagogi genu Kidza muainge muamboze kahi za kila mudzi mandiwongira
So you will be guilty for the death of all the good people who have been killed on earth You will be guilty for the killing of that godly man Abel And you will be guilty for the killing of Zechariahson of Berachiah He was killed between the Temple and the altar You will be guilty for the killing of all the good people who lived between the time of Abel and the time of Zechariah,Kwa ut'u uwo bai milatso ya at'u ahachi osi mariolagwa haha dhuniani indakala dzulu zenu Kuandzira iryahu ya Abeli hatha ya Zakaria mwana wa Barakia muriyemwalaga kahikahi za ho hat'u haeri na cho kijaja cha kwambozera sadaka
Believe me when I say that all these things will happen to you people who are living now,Nami namwambira ujeri kukala adhabu ya vifwa vizho zhosi indamugwerera ninwi at'u a kizhazi kiki
O Jerusalem Jerusalem You kill the prophets You stone to death those that God has sent to you Many many times I wanted to help your people I wanted to gather them together as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings But you did not let me,Bai Jesu arihogonya kunena vizho akikwatya kuashikithikira at'u a Jerusalemu Akiamba H'enwi at'u a Jerusalemu Kazi yenu ni kualaga manabii na kuakot'a mawe ahumiki a Mulungu mahumwao kwenu Ni mara nyingahi nidzizomala kumukundzumanya hamwenga here k'uk'u aafinikirazho anae na mahahage ela mudzakahala
Now your house will be left completely empty,Lolani nyumba yenu idzarichwa ikale gandzo
I tell you you will not see me again until that time when you will say Welcome God bless the one who comes in the name of the Lord,Nami namwambira kamare kukala k'amundanona kaheri muhaka haho mundihokudzaamba Naahaswe iye adzaye kwa dzina ra Bwana
Jesus left the Temple area and was walking away But his followers came to him to show him the Temples buildings,Vikara Jesu arihokala adzambola kahi za ro Hekalu akwendani anafundzie mamwanyesa go majengo ga ro Hekalu
He asked them Are you looking at these buildings The fact is they will be destroyed Every stone will be thrown down to the ground Not one stone will be left on another,Ela Jesu akiambira kukala Amba munagaona gano majengo gosi zho Be namwambira ujeri wenye k'ahana iwe hatha mwenga rindirosala dzulu za mwandziwe kila kit'u kinadzabandwa-bandwa
Later Jesus was sitting at a place on the Mount of Olives The followers came to be alone with him They said Tell us when these things will happen And what will happen to prepare us for your coming and the end of time,Bai Jesu arihombola haho wakwendakelesi kahi za Murima wa Mizeituni Vikara arihokala akelesi anafundzie mamuza kinjama makiamba Maut'u gano gandahendeka rini Vidze ni muvano wani undiwonyesa kukala u hehi na kudza na mwisho wa dhunia udzafika
Jesus answered Be careful Dont let anyone fool you,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Dzimanyirireni hasidze mut'u akamukenga
Many people will come and use my name They will say I am the Messiah And they will fool many people,Kwani kuna anji mandiokudza kwa dzina rangu na kuamba ao ndo Masihi na mandakenga at'u anji
You will hear about wars that are being fought And you will hear stories about other wars beginning But dont be afraid These things must happen before the end comes,Na mundasikira uvoro wa viha vihefwazho hehi na vingine mundahenda kuvisikira uvumi ela sogoheni kwani ni hatha gakale gago ela wo mwisho wa urumwengu undakala uchere mbere
Nations will fight against other nations Kingdoms will fight against other kingdoms There will be times when there is no food for people to eat And there will be earthquakes in different places,Kabila rindauka kwendapigana na kabila ringine Uthawali undapigana na uthawali mungine Kundakala na ndzala na ts'i indathethema hat'u-hat'u
These things are only the beginning of troubles like the first pains of a woman giving birth,Ela gago gosi gandakala ni mwandzo wa utsungu thu
Then you will be arrested and handed over to be punished and killed People all over the world will hate you because you believe in me,Mundagwirwa muteswe na mwalagwe Kila mut'u andamumena haha urumwenguni kwa ut'u wa dzina rangu
During that time many believers will lose their faith They will turn against each other and hate each other,Kahi za wakathi uwo at'u anji mandauya nyuma na makwatye kuguzana na kutsukirirwana enye kwa enye
Many false prophets will come and cause many people to believe things that are wrong,Kundambola manabii anji a ulongo na mandakenga at'u anji
There will be so much more evil in the world that the love of most believers will grow cold,Na kwa kukala uthiriri undakala udzakaza zhomu at'u mandaricha kuahendza andziyao
But the one who remains faithful to the end will be saved,Ela iye andiyevumirira hatha mwisho ndiye andiyeokoka
And the Good News I have shared about Gods kingdom will be told throughout the world It will be spread to every nation Then the end will come,Na Uvoro uu Udzo wa uthawali wa mulunguni undahubiriwa urumwengu muzima ili ukale ushahidhi kwa makabila gosi ndo wo mwisho udze
Daniel the prophet spoke about the terrible thing that causes destructionYou will see this terrible thing standing in the holy place You who read this should understand what it means,Mundaona kit'u cha kutsukiza na cha kwanonga kirichonenwa ni nabii Danieli kapindi kiimire kahi za ho hat'u haeri H'ewe mushomi shomat'o ung'alirwe
The people in Judea at that time should run away to the mountains,Bai mundihoona vizho at'u osi mandiokala Judea namachimbirire ko mirimani
They should run away without wasting time to stop for anything If they are on the roof of their house they must not go down to get anything out of the house,Mut'u andiyekala a dzulu za nyumba ya kwakwe asiuye mo nyumbani kwendahala kit'u chochosi
If they are in the field they must not go back to get a coat,Mut'u andiyekala a mundani asiuye mudzini kwendahala nguwoye
During that time it will be hard for women who are pregnant or have small babies,Wakathi uwo vindakala vii-vii zaidhi kwa ano m'ama mandiokala mana mimba na mandiokala manaamwisa
Pray that it will not be winter or a Sabbath day when these things happen and you have to run away,Na voyani uwo wakathi mundihokala munachimbira usikale ni wakathi wa p'eho hedu siku ya Sabato
because it will be a time of great trouble There will be more trouble than has ever happened since the beginning of the world And nothing as bad as that will ever happen again,Kwani wakathi uwo kundakala na mateso mabomu garigo k'agadzaonewa na k'agandaonewa kaheri haha urumwenguni
But God has decided to make that terrible time short If it were not made short no one would continue living But God will make that time short to help the people he has chosen,Siku zizo za mateso Mulungu wazihunguza kwa ut'u wa at'u arioatsagula ela kala si vizho k'ahana hatha mut'u mumwenga angayeokoka
Someone might say to you at that time Look there is the Messiah Or someone else might say There he is But dont believe them,Bai mut'u akimwamba Lola thiyuno ye Masihi hedu Thiyuya kurya sikuluhireni bule
False messiahs and false prophets will come and do great miracles and wonderstrying to fool the people God has chosen if that is possible,Mana kundambola ano Masihi anji a ulongo na manabii anji a ulongo At'u ao osi mandahenda mivano mibomu ili vichadimikika maakenge hatha o at'u mariotsagulwa ni Mulungu
Now I have warned you about this before it happens,Lolani nidzamwambira maut'u gaga kimbere
Someone might tell you The Messiah is there in the desert But dont go into the desert to look for him Someone else might say There is the Messiah in that room But dont believe it,Kwa vizho mut'u yoyosi andiyekudzamwambira kukala Masihi a nyika bewe hedu Masihi adzazama kuryahu ndani hatha thuwani shuhuli zenu musimugwire gakwe kamare
When the Son of Man comes everyone will see him It will be like lightning flashing in the sky that can be seen everywhere,Mana Mwana wa Mudamu andihokudza andaonewa ni kila mut'u dza viryahu lumethe lumethazho mwambolero wa dzuwa na lukaonewa hatha mutserero wa dzuwa
Its like looking for a dead body You will find it where the vultures are gathering above,Kwani Hadzihogwa kimba ndo nderi mathungananaho
Right after the trouble of those days this will happen,Bada ya siku ziryahu za mateso kukira thu dzuwa rindangira kiza na mwezi k'aundaala kaheri Nyenyezi zindagwa ts'i na nguvu za dzulu mulunguni zindathukuswa
Then there will be something in the sky that shows the Son of Man is coming All the people of the world will cry Everyone will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds in the sky He will come with power and great glory,Na vikigoma vizho ko dzulu kundambola muvano wa kunyesa kukala Mwana wa Mudamu akudzani At'u a makabila gosi ga urumwengu mandarira kidza mandamona Mwana wa Mudamu anatharamuka kuno a dzulu za maingu Naye andatharamuka na nguvu na nguma nyinji
He will use a loud trumpet to send his angels all around the earth They will gather his chosen people from every part of the earth,Andaahuma malaikae mapige gunda zhomu zhenye na maakundzumanye o at'u osi mariotsagulwa ni Mulungu kula kila p'embe ya dhunia
The fig tree teaches us a lesson When its branches become green and soft and new leaves begin to grow then you know that summer is very near,Bai dzifundisheni kula kwa mutini Mutini t'aize zikikala nyolovu na kukwatya kumboza makodza munamanya kare wakathi wa mavuno udzafika hehi
In the same way when you see all these things happening you will know that the timeis very near already present,Kwa vizho ninwi nanwi mukiona maut'u gaga gosi manyani kukala wakathi wa kudza Mwana wa Mudamu udzafika hehi
I assure you that all these things will happen while some of the people of this time are still living,Nami namwambira kamare kizhazi kiki k'akindakira kabila maut'u gaga gosi kuthimira
The whole world earth and sky will be destroyed but my words will last forever,Mulunguni na ts'i zhosi vindahenda mwisho ela maneno gangu k'agana mwisho bule
No one knows when that day or time will be The Son and the angels in heaven dont know when it will be Only the Father knows,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Ela k'ahana mut'u amanyaye ni siku yani na saa yani gandihokalira maut'u gaga hatha o malaika na ye Mwana wa Mudamu k'amaimanya bule Baba h'akeye nde aimanyaye
When the Son of Man comes it will be the same as what happened during Noahs time,Kudza kwa Mwana wa Mudamu kundakala dza zho virizhokala wakathi wa Nuhu
In those days before the flood people were eating and drinking marrying and giving their children to be married right up to the day Noah entered the boat,Kwani siku zizo za Nuhu kabila vula ya muretho k'aidzanya at'u mathuwa kuishi here kawaida thu Makala makirya na kunwa na kuhala na kuhalwa hatha Nuhu achangira safinani
They knew nothing about what was happening until the flood came and destroyed them all,At'u ao mathuwa kuishi bila kumanya kundakudzani hatha muretho ukidzaahala vizho Na vizho ndo vindizhokala hatha yo siku andihokudza Mwana wa Mudamu
Two men will be working together in the field One will be taken and the other will be left,Siku iyo alume airi mandakala ma mundani mumwenga andahalwa na ye mungine arichwe
Two women will be grinding grain with a mill One will be taken and the other will be left,Anaache airi mandakala manasaga mumwenga andahalwa na ye mungine arichwe
So always be ready You dont know the day your Lord will come,Kwa vizho kalani matso mana k'amumanya Bwana wenu andakudza siku yani
What would a homeowner do if he knew when a thief was coming You know he would be ready and not let the thief break in,Sirikizani bai kala mwenye nyumba ni kumanya mwivi andakudza usiku wa saa nyingahi k'angakubalire nyumbaye ibandwe bule angachesa matso kuirinda
So you also must be ready The Son of Man will come at a time when you dont expect him,Kwa vizho ninwi nanwi dziikeni thayari wakathi wosi kwani Mwana wa Mudamu andakudza wakathi musiwoudhania
Who is the wise and trusted servant The master trusts one servant to give the other servants their food at the right time Who is the one the master trusts to do that work,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Muhumiki mwaminifu na mulachu ni yuyahu ariye akirichirwa ahumiki andziye ni bwanawe aatsundze na kuap'a chakurya here vimalikanazho andahenda vizho
When the master comes and finds that servant doing the work he gave him it will be a day of blessing for that servant,Baha iye muhumiki iye ariye bwanawe andakudzamuthekeza anahenda vizho
I can tell you without a doubt the master will choose that servant to take care of everything he owns,Kwani namwambira jeri wenye kukala andamuhala na amuhendye akale muimirizi wa zho vit'u zhosi arizho nazho
But what will happen if that servant is evil and thinks his master will not come back soon,Ela ye muhumiki mui akiamba kimoyo-moyo Naona ye bwana wangu k'andauya vikara
He will begin to beat the other servants He will eat and drink with others who are drunk,akwache kuapiga o ahumiki andziye na kurya na kunwa hamwenga na arevi
Then the master will come when the servant is not ready at a time when the servant is not expecting him,Bai ye bwana wa muhumiki yuyu andauya siku asiyodhania na saa asiyoimanya
Then the master will punish that servant He will send him away to be with the hypocrites where people will cry and grind their teeth with pain,Naye afikaho andakudzamuhala na amutose visiku-visiku gonya amutsanganye na at'u a kudzihendya Na kuko at'u mandarira na kwafuna meno kwa utsungu
At that time Gods kingdom will be like ten girls who went to wait for the bridegroom They took their lamps with them,Haho siku andihokudzirira Mwana wa Mudamu uthawali wa mulunguni undahalana na asichana kumi marioasha mataa gao mende makamutsangire bwana harusi
Five of the girls were foolish and five were wise,Kahi za o asichana kumi asichana atsano were ni azuzu na atsano were ni alachu
The foolish girls took their lamps with them but they did not take extra oil for the lamps,Vikara aryahu asichana azuzu mamanya ko kutsukula go mataa kare ela k'amatsukulire akiba yoyosi ya mafuha
The wise girls took their lamps and more oil in jars,Ela arya alachu o makitsukula mataa hamwenga na mafuha ga akiba
When the bridegroom was very late the girls could not keep their eyes open and they all fell asleep,Bai kwa kukala ye bwana harusi k'adzire haraka o asichana osi makunukira na makilala
At midnight someone announced The bridegroom is coming Come and meet him,Ela usiku wa manane makihenda kusikira Thiye bwana harusi ukani mwende mukamutsangire
Then all the girls woke up They made their lamps ready,Aryahu asichana osi makivumbuluka kare makikwacha kuthayarisha mataa gao
But the foolish girls said to the wise girls Give us some of your oil The oil in our lamps is all gone,Vikara aryahu asichana azuzu marihoona kukala mataa gao k'agana mafuha makiavoya o alachu makiamba Huthanyizeni naswi go mafuha mana mataa gehu ganazima
The wise girls answered No The oil we have might not be enough for all of us But go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves,Ela o asichana alachu makidzigidzya makiamba Go mafuha hurigo nago be k'agadima kuhuthosha hosi bule kwa vizho kot'ani malo madhukani mukagule genu
So the foolish girls went to buy oil While they were gone the bridegroom came The girls who were ready went in with the bridegroom to the wedding feast Then the door was closed and locked,K'uzhona o asichana azuzu marihokala makwendani ko madhukani kuno ye bwana harusi akidza Aryahu asichana atsano mariokala ma thayari machangira hamwenga naye kahi za yo nyumba ya harusi na muryango ukifungwa
Later the other girls came They said Sir sir Open the door to let us in,Bada ya muda o asichana angine makidza kula ko mafuhani Makidzabisha zhomu zhenye makiamba Bwana bwana huvugulire
But the bridegroom answered Certainly not I dont even know you,Ela ye bwana harusi akiadzigidzya akiamba Kunena wo ujeri simumanya bule ninwi
So always be ready You dont know the day or the time when the Son of Man will come,Jesu arihomarigiza ro fumbo riro akiamba Kwa vizho kalani thayari wakathi wosi mana k'amumanya maut'u gaga gandakala siku yani na saa yani
At that time Gods kingdom will also be like a man leaving home to travel to another place for a visit Before he left he talked with his servants He told his servants to take care of his things while he was gone,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Wakathi uwo be udzahalana na mut'u mumwenga ariyekala anamala kufunga charo cha kwenda ts'i za kure Bai kabila k'adzauka waaiha ahumikie akiap'a malize mamutsundzire
He decided how much each servant would be able to care for The man gave one servant five bags of moneyHe gave another servant two bags And he gave a third servant one bag Then he left,Waaiha hamwenga na kila mut'u akimup'a t'alant'a kulengana na wadimiwe Wa kwandza wamup'a t'alant'a ts'ano Wa hiri akimup'a mbiri na wa hahu akimup'a mwenga Arihogonya vizho akiuka achenda
The servant who got five bags went quickly to invest the money Those five bags of money earned five more,Vikara arihokala adzakwenda ye muhumiki ariyegerwa t'alant'a ts'ano akizihendera kazi na zikizhala ts'ano nyingine
It was the same with the servant who had two bags That servant invested the money and earned two more,Yuya ariyegerwa mbiri naye akizihendera kazi hatha zikizhala mbiri nyingine
But the servant who got one bag of money went away and dug a hole in the ground Then he hid his masters money in the hole,Ela ye muhumiki ariyegerwa t'alant'a mwenga akiihala yo p'esa ya bwanawe achendaitsimbira wina akiizika
After a long time the master came home He asked the servants what they did with his money,Vikara bada ya muda mure ye bwana wa aryahu ahumiki akiuya na akidzapiga hesabu na o ahumikie
The servant who got five bags brought that amount and five more bags of money to the master The servant said Master you trusted me to care for five bags of money So I used them to earn five more,Bai yuyahu muhumiki ariyegerwa t'alant'a ts'ano akimboza zo ts'ano nyingine akiamba Bwana mut'u uwe wanirichira t'alant'a ts'ano nami nikizihendera kazi hatha zikizhala zizi ts'ano nyingine thizi
The master answered You did right You are a good servant who can be trusted You did well with that small amount of money So I will let you care for much greater things Come and share my happiness with me,Ye bwanawe akimwamba U muhumiki mudzo na mwaminifu uriyehenda kazi ya kunifwaha moyo wangu Wakala mwaminifu dzulu za maut'u mathithe na vivi ndakuhendya uimirire maut'u mabomu zaidhi H'aya ndzo kuno wangire kahi za raha ya bwanao
Then the servant who got two bags of money came to the master The servant said Master you gave me two bags of money to care for So I used your two bags to earn two more,Kula iye akithuwirizwa ni yuyahu wa t'alant'a mbiri Iye naye akiamba Bwana uwe wanip'a t'alant'a mbiri nami nikizihendera kazi hatha zikizhala zizi t'alant'a mbiri nyingine thizi
The master answered You did right You are a good servant who can be trusted You did well with a small amount of money So I will let you care for much greater things Come and share my happiness with me,Ye bwanawe akiamba U muhumiki mudzo na mwaminifu uriyehenda kazi ya kunifwaha moyo wangu Wakala mwaminifu kwa maut'u mathithe nami nindakuhendya uimirire maut'u mabomu H'aya ndzo kuno wangire kahi raha ya bwanao
Then the servant who got one bag of money came to the master The servant said Master I knew you were a very hard man You harvest what you did not plant You gather crops where you did not put any seed,Kula iye akidza ye wa t'alant'a mwenga Akiamba Bwana uwe be ninakumanyat'o sana mino U mut'u mwomu Unahendza kuvuna hat'u uriho k'uhalayire na kuzola mutsere uriwo k'uuhululire
So I was afraid I went and hid your money in the ground Here is the one bag of money you gave me,Kwa ut'u uwo wenye bai yo t'alant'ayo nikigoha kuihendera kazi Nikiihala nikiitsimbira wina nikiizika Kwa vizho yo t'alant'ayo thii hala mwenye
The master answered You are a bad and lazy servant You say you knew that I harvest what I did not plant and that I gather crops where I did not put any seed,K'ona ye bwanawe anambola kunena akiamba Muhumiki muthiriri na mukaha we Be hatha navikale unanimanyat'o sana kukala nivuna hat'u niriho silayire na kuzola mutsere hat'u niriho sihululire
So you should have put my money in the bank Then when I came home I would get my money back And I would also get the interest that my money earned,Were k'udima kwendazika bengi zo p'esa zangu changari zikanizhalira faidha
So the master told his other servants Take the one bag of money from that servant and give it to the servant who has ten bags,H'aya muhokeni kare yo t'alant'a mumup'e ye ariye na kumi
Everyone who uses what they have will get more They will have much more than they need But people who do not use what they have will have everything taken away from them,Kwani kila ariye na kit'u andagerwa akale na vinji Ela ariye k'ana kit'u andahokwa hatha cho aricho nacho
Then the master said Throw that useless servant outside into the darkness where people will cry and grind their teeth with pain,H'aya muhaleni yuyu muhumiki asiye mana mumutsuhe ko ndze kizani Na kuko kundakala na kurira na kwafuna meno
The Son of Man will come again with divine greatness and all his angels will come with him He will sit as king on his great and glorious throne,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Haho Mwana wa Mudamu andihokudza na malaika osi kahi za nguma ya kwakwe andakelesi dzulu za kihi cha kwakwe cha kithawali kihi chenye nguma
All the people of the world will be gathered before him Then he will separate everyone into two groups It will be like a shepherd separating his sheep from his goats,Bai andihokala yukelesi at'u a makabila gosi mandakudzaima mbereze naye andaathanya k'ana mbiri dza viryahu murisa athanyazho mbuzi na ng'ondzi
He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left,At'u enye hachi andaaika mukono wa kurya At'u athiriri o andaaika mukono wa kumots'o
Then the king will say to the godly people on his right Come my Father has great blessings for you The kingdom he promised is now yours It has been prepared for you since the world was made,Gonya ye Muthawali andaambira aryahu mandiokala mukono wa kurya Ndzoni kuno nwi at'u muriohaswa ni Baba Ndzoni muhale uthawali muriwothayarishirwa ni Baba hangu urumwengu k'audzaumbwa
It is yours because when I was hungry you gave me food to eat When I was thirsty you gave me something to drink When I had no place to stay you welcomed me into your home,Kwani nirihokala nina ndzala ninwi mwanip'a chakurya nikirya Nirihokala nina k'ihu mukinip'a madzi nikinwa Na nirihokala ni mujeni mukinikaribishat'o
When I was without clothes you gave me something to wear When I was sick you cared for me When I was in prison you came to visit me,Nirihokala nina wira mwanip'a nguwo nikivala Nirihokala ni mukongo mukidzanilola na nirihokala ni jela nazho dzazho
Then the godly people will answer Lord when did we see you hungry and give you food When did we see you thirsty and give you something to drink,O ahachi mandauza maambe Bwana unaamba kukala urihokala una ndzala fwakup'a chakurya ukirya Urihokala una k'ihu fukikup'a madzi ukinwa
When did we see you with no place to stay and welcome you into our home When did we see you without clothes and give you something to wear,Urihokala u mujeni fukikukaribishat'o Urihokala una wira fukikup'a nguwo ukivala
When did we see you sick or in prison and care for you,Urihokala u mukongo fukidzakulola na urihokala u jela nazho dzazho Be hatha fwakona rini sino hatha fukikuhendera maut'u gano gosi
Then the king will answer The truth is anything you did for any of my people hereyou also did for me,Ye Muthawali andaadzigidzya aambe Namwambira kamare kukala zho murizhoahendera aa ndugu zangu athithe be mwanihendera mimi
Then the king will say to the evil people on his left Get away from me God has already decided that you will be punished Go into the fire that burns foreverthe fire that was prepared for the devil and his angels,Gonya andaambira o at'u mandiokala mukono wa kumots'o Nihaukirani nwi at'u muriolaniwa Endani kahi za moho wa kare na kare kut'u kurikotengezerwa Shethani na malaikae
You must go away because when I was hungry you gave me nothing to eat When I was thirsty you gave me nothing to drink,Kwani nirihokala nina ndzala k'amunip'ere chakurya nikarya Nirihokala nina k'ihu k'amunip'ere madzi nikanwa
When I had no place to stay you did not welcome me into your home When I was without clothes you gave me nothing to wear When I was sick and in prison you did not care for me,Nirihokala ni mujeni k'amunikaribishire Nirihokala nina wira k'amunip'ere nguwo nikavala Nirihokala ni mukongo k'amudzire nilola na nirihokala jela nazho dzazho
Then those people will answer Lord when did we see you hungry or thirsty When did we see you without a place to stay Or when did we see you without clothes or sick or in prison When did we see any of this and not help you,Nao mandamuza mamwambe Bwana ni rini ho furihokona una ndzala hedu una k'ihu hedu u mujeni hedu u mukongo hedu u jela gonya sino k'afukwavizire fukikuricha vizho
The king will answer The truth is anything you refused to do for any of my people here you refused to do for me,Ye andaadzigidzya aambe Ninamwambira kamare kukala zho murizho k'amuahenderere aa ndugu zangu athithe be hatha mimi nami k'amunihenderere
Then these evil people will go away to be punished forever But the godly people will go and enjoy eternal life,Nao mandihoambwa vizho mandakwendangira kahi za hukumu ya kare na kare ela ahachi o mandangira kahi za uzima wa kare na kare
After Jesus finished saying all these things he said to his followers,Vikara Jesu arihokala adzagonya kunena maneno gaga gosi waambira anafundzie
You know that the day after tomorrow is Passover On that day the Son of Man will be handed over to his enemies to be killed on a cross,Here mumanyazho muhondo ni sikuk'uu ya P'asaka Na Mwana wa Mudamu andalazhwa ili asulubiwe
Then the leading priests and the older Jewish leaders had a meeting at the palace where the high priest lived The high priests name was Caiaphas,Wakathi uwo alombi abomu na athumia a Kiyahudi mathunganana nyumbani kwa Kayafa Mut'u yuyu Kayafa were nde Mulombi mubomu mwenye wakathi uwo
In the meeting they tried to find a way to arrest and kill Jesus without anyone knowing what they were doing They planned to arrest Jesus and kill him,Bai at'u ao mathunganana kuko ili mamale ngira ya kilachu ya kumugwirira Jesu na mamwalage
They said We cannot arrest Jesus during Passover We dont want the people to become angry and cause a riot,Ela marihothunganana mapatana kukala masimugwire Jesu wakathi wa P'asaka bule p'ore at'u makathinya bugwa
Jesus was in Bethany at the house of Simon the leper,Bai siku mwenga Jesu wakwenda nyumbani kwa mwanamulume mumwenga ariyekala akiifwa Simoni Mahana Mwanamulume yuyu were anatoa kahi za kadzidzi ka Beth'ania
While he was there a woman came to him She had an alabaster jar filled with expensive perfume She poured the perfume on Jesus head while he was eating,Bai arihokala haho mwanamuche mumwenga akidza na th'up'a iriyokala i thele mafuha ga marashi kidza ga gali sana Th'up'a ii yere yatengezwa na iwe ra alabasita Bai arihofika haho akimumwagira Jesu go mafuha mo kitswani kuno Jesu mwenye anahumira chakurya
The followers saw the woman do this and were upset at her They said Why waste that perfume,Bai o anafundzi marihoona viryahu k'aviafwahire bule maamba Kuno be tha si kwanonga kuno
It could be sold for a lot of money and the money could be given to those who are poor,Mafuha gaga kala gadzaguzwa gakambola p'esa nyinji zenye na makagerwa masikini
But Jesus knew what happened He said Why are you bothering this woman She did a very good thing for me,Jesu arihovimanya akiamba Mbona munamubudzya ye mwanamuchengwa Iye adzanihendera kit'u kidzo
You will always have the poor with youBut you will not always have me,Masikini munao siku zosini ela mimi k'amundakala nami siku zosini bule
This woman poured perfume on my body She did this to prepare me for burial after I die,Ut'u uu wa kunimwagira mafuha yuyu mwanamuche adzauhenda ili anithayarishe kwa kuzikwa kwangu
The Good News will be told to people all over the world And I can assure you that everywhere the Good News is told the story of what this woman did will also be told and people will remember her,Nami namwambira ujeri zho adzizhohenda mwanamuche yuyu vivi rero nazho vindathalwa na kukumbukirwa kila undihohubiriwa wo Uvoro Udzo kahi za urumwengu muzima
Then one of the twelve followers went to talk to the leading priests This was the follower named Judas Iscariot,Bai wakathi uwo mumwenga wa aryahu anafundzi kumi na airi a Jesu aifwaye Juda Isikariote wauka achenda kwa alombi abomu
He said I will hand Jesus over to you What will you pay me for doing this The priests gave him 30 silver coins,Anafika kuko akiamba Vidze mut'u yuno nikimulazha kwenu mundanip'ani K'ona arihonena vizho aryahu alombi abomu makimuthalira visiku mirongo mihahu zha fedha makimup'a
After that Judas waited for the best time to hand Jesus over to them,Na kulaizira haho Juda akikala anamala nafasi mbidzo ya kumusalitira Jesu
On the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Bread the followers came to Jesus They said We will prepare everything for you to eat the Passover meal Where do you want us to have the meal,Vikara siku ya kwandza ya sikuk'uu ya Mikahe Iso Ts'ats'u anafundzi makwendamuza Jesu makiamba P'asaka ino undairyahi fukakuthayarishire
Jesus answered Go into the city Go to a man I know Tell him that the Teacher says The chosen time is near I will have the Passover meal with my followers at your house,Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Ngirani wo mudzi wa Jerusalemu mwende hatha kwa yuyu mut'u yuyu Mukifika kuko mwambeni kukala Mwalimu anaamba wakathi wangu u hehi kwa vizho nindarya P'asaka na anafundzi angu kwako nyumbani
They obeyed and did what Jesus told them to do They prepared the Passover meal,Bai o anafundzi makihenda here marizhokala madzalagizwa ni Jesu Manafika kuko makithayarisha yo P'asaka
In the evening Jesus was at the table with the twelve followers,Kurihofika dziloni Jesu na anafundzie kumi na airi makelesi marye chakurya
They were all eating Then Jesus said Believe me when I say that one of you twelve here will hand me over to my enemies,Marihokala makuryani Jesu akinena akiamba Ninamwambira ujeri wenye kukala mumwenga wenu haha andanisaliti
The followers were very sad to hear this Each one said Lord surely I am not the one,O anafundzi marihosikira vizho makishikithika sana na makikwacha kumuza Jesu mumwenga-mumwenga makiamba Vidze ni mimi Bwana
Jesus answered One who has dipped his bread in the same bowl with me will be the one to hand me over,Ela Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Iye atsotsaye nami kahi za muvure mumwenga nde andiyenisaliti
The Son of Man will suffer what the Scriptures say will happen to him But it will be very bad for the one who hands over the Son of Man to be killed It would be better for him if he had never been born,Mwana wa Mudamu anenda kare kamwe here Maoro gaambazho ela shauriye iye mut'u amusalitiye Vingakala baha kala k'azhalirwe
Then Judas the very one who would hand him over said to Jesus Teacher surely I am not the one you are talking about am I,Vikara Jesu arihonena viryahu ye musaliti wa kwakwe naye akiuza akiamba Vidze ni mimi Mwalimu Jesu akimudzigidzya akiamba Udzanena
While they were eating Jesus took some bread and thanked God for it He broke off some pieces gave them to his followers and said Take this bread and eat it It is my body,Bai marihokala makuryani Jesu wahala mukahe akimboza muvera kwa Mulungu gonya akiumogola-mogola akiap'a o anafundzie akiamba Halani murye uu ndo mwiri wangu
Then he took a cup of wine thanked God for it and gave it to them He said Each one of you drink some of it,Na arihogonya kuap'a wo mukahe akihala cho kikombe cha divai akimboza muvera kwa Mulungu gonya akiap'a o anafundzie akiamba Halani kikombe kiki mutsumbulirane
This wine is my blood which will be poured out to forgive the sins of many and begin the new agreement from God to his people,kwani ii ndo milatso yangu ya cho kilagane imwagwayo ili at'u anji madime kusamehewa dambi zao
I want you to know I will not drink this wine again until that day when we are together in my Fathers kingdom and the wine is new Then I will drink it again with you,Nami namwambira ujeri sindanwa divai ii kaheri muhaka siku iyo nindihonwa divai mbisha hamwenga nanwi kahi za uthawali wa Baba
They all sang a song and then went out to the Mount of Olives,Gonya makiimba wira na makiuka kwenda Murima wa Mizeituni
Jesus told the followers Tonight you will all lose your faith in me The Scriptures say,Jesu akiambira kukala Usiku wa rero ninwi nyosi mundaniricha h'akiyangu Kwani Maoro ganaamba Nindamupiga ye murisa na zo ng'ondzi zosi zindatsamukana
But after I am killed I will rise from death Then I will go into Galilee I will be there before you go there,Ela haho nikikala nidzafufulwa nindamuthangulia kwenda Galilaya
Peter answered All the other followers may lose their faith in you But my faith will never be shaken,P'et'ero akimudzigidzya akiamba Hatha kala osi mandakuricha mimi sindakuricha ng'o
Jesus answered The truth is tonight you will say you dont know me You will deny me three times before the rooster crows,Jesu akimudzigidzya akiamba Nakwambira ujeri usiku wa rero kabila jogolo k'aridzaika undanikana k'ana t'ahu
But Peter answered I will never say I dont know you I will even die with you And all the other followers said the same thing,P'et'ero akimwamba Jesu Hatha kala ni kufwa nanifwe ela sindakukana ng'o Na o anafundzi angine nao makinena dza vizho
Then Jesus went with his followers to a place called Gethsemane He said to them Sit here while I go there and pray,Gonya Jesu na anafundzie makwenda hat'u haifwaho Geth'isemane Marihofika kuko akiambira o anafundzie akiamba Kelesini haha munitharize nami nasongera mbere vichache nikavoye
He told Peter and the two sons of Zebedee to come with him Then he began to be very sad and troubled,Arihokala akwendani akimuhala P'et'ero na o ana airi a Zebedayo Jakobu na Johana achenda nao Naye wakathi uwo washononeka zhomu na kubudzyika moyo
Jesus said to Peter and the two sons of Zebedee My heart is so heavy with grief I feel as if I am dying Wait here and stay awake with me,Bai makwenda hatha manafika ko mbere akiambira kukala Ninashononeka zhomu moyoni mwangu hatha ni here nindiyefwa Bai kalani haha muchese nami
Then Jesus went on a little farther away from them He fell to the ground and prayed My Father if it is possible dont make me drink from this cupBut do what you want not what I want,Gonya Jesu akiaricha ano P'et'ero haho na akisongera mbere vichache Achendagwa na moyo akivoya akiamba Baba chamba vinadimikika mateso gaga naganiukire gasinipate bule Ela navikale here uhendzazho uwe visikale here nihendzazho mimi bule
Then he went back to his followers and found them sleeping He said to Peter Could you men not stay awake with me for one hour,Kula haho akiauyira o anafundzie naye akidzaaona marere Akimwamba P'et'ero Yani k'amudimire kuchesa nami hatha ngaa saa mwenga
Stay awake and pray for strength against temptation Your spirit wants to do what is right but your body is weak,Chesani na muvoye sidze mukangira majezoni kwani roho inahendza kamare ela mwiri ni munyonge
Then Jesus went away a second time and prayed My Father if I must do thisand it is not possible for me to escape it then I pray that what you want will be done,Naye arihogonya kunena akiaricha haho kaheri na achendavoya dza vizho zha kwandza akiamba Baba chamba vinadimikika mateso gaga gasinipate bule Ela visikale here nihendzazho mimi navikale here uhendzazho uwe
Then he went back to the followers Again he found them sleeping They could not stay awake,Arihogonya kuvoya vizho akiauyira o ano P'et'ero Anafika kuko achendaathekeza marere kaheri K'amadimire kukala matso kwa wo uts'indzizi mariwokala nawo
So he left them and went away one more time and prayed This third time he prayed he said the same thing,Bai Jesu akiaricha kaheri na achendavoya mara ya hahu dza vizho zha mara ya kwandza
Then Jesus went back to the followers and said Are you still sleeping and resting The time has come for the Son of Man to be handed over to the control of sinful men,Arihogonya kuvoya akiauyira o anafundzie akiambira Muchere kulala na kudzioyeza Lolani wakathi wa Mwana wa Mudamu kusalitiwa kwa enye dambi udzafika
Stand up We must go Here comes the one who will hand me over,Lamukani fwende kwani ye andiyenisaliti akudzani
While Jesus was still speaking Judas one of the twelve apostles came there He had a big crowd of people with him all carrying swords and clubs They had been sent from the leading priests and the older leaders of the people,Bai arihokala achere kunena lola Juda mumwenga wa o anafundzie kumi na airi akidza na kundi bomu ra at'u mariokala madzatsukula mishu na njogoma At'u aa were mala kwa alombi abomu na athumia a Kiyahudi
Judasplanned to do something to show them which one was Jesus He said The one I kiss will be Jesus Arrest him,Iye musaliti were waap'a muvano kukala Ye nindiyemudonera nde mumumalaye mugwireni
So he went to Jesus and said Hello Teacher Then Judas kissed him,Juda achenda mara mwenga na akiamba Dheri narikale kwako Mwalimu gonya akimudonera
Jesus answered Friend do the thing you came to do,Jesu arihoona viryahu akimwamba Juda Henda zho vidzizhokufisha musenangu Bai o at'u makimwangiza magandzani Jesu
When that happened one of the followers with Jesus grabbed his sword and pulled it out He swung it at the servant of the high priest and cut off his ear,Lola mumwenga kahi za o at'u mariokala na Jesu akitsolola mushuwe na akimuthema muhumiki wa ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye akimutosa sikiro
Jesus said to the man Put your sword back in its place People who use swords will be killed with swords,Jesu arihoona viryahu akimwamba ye mwenye mushu Wudzye chowani mwakwe wo mushuwo Kwani kila ahumiraye mushu andalagwa kwa mushu
Surely you know I could ask my Father and he would give me more than twelve armies of angels,K'umanya kukala nikamwambira Baba anirehere maalifu ga malaika madze mafuhehere ananirehera mara mwenga
But it must happen this way to show the truth of what the Scriptures said,Ela nikihendazho go Maoro gaambago kukala ni hatha vivi vikale gandathimiradze
Then Jesus said to the crowd Why do you come to get me with swords and clubs as if I were a criminal Every day I sat in the Temple area teaching You did not arrest me there,Bai Jesu arihogonya kunena vizho akiagalukira o at'u akiamba Mbona mudzambola na mishu na njogoma kudzanigwira dza here mudzaogwira jambazi Kila siku nidzakala nikikelesi kahi za ro Hekalu kufundisha na k'amunigwirire
But all these things have happened to show the full meaning of what the prophets wrote Then all of Jesus followers left him and ran away,Ela gaga gosi ganakala kwamba garyahu garigoorwa ni manabii gathimire Bai o anafundzie osi makimuricha makichimbira
The men who arrested Jesus led him to the house of Caiaphas the high priest The teachers of the law and the older Jewish leaders were gathered there,Bai aryahu at'u mariomugwira Jesu mamuhala vivii hatha nyumbani kwa Kayafa ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye mana kuko ndo o alimu a Sheria na athumia marikokala madzathunganana kumuthariza
Peter followed Jesus but stayed back at a distance He followed him to the yard of the high priests house Peter went in and sat with the guards He wanted to see what would happen to Jesus,Marihokala makwendani P'et'ero wamuthuwa Jesu kwa kure Wakwenda hatha achendangira muhalani ha ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye akikelesi na o arindzi ili alolere chamba vindakaladze
The leading priests and the high council tried to find something against Jesus so that they could kill him They tried to find people to lie and say that Jesus had done wrong,Bai aryahu alombi abomu na ro Baraza ra athumia majeza zhomu kumala ushahidhi wowosi wa ulongo wa kuthosha kumwalagira Jesu
Many people came and told lies about him But the council could find no real reason to kill him Then two people came,ela k'amaupatire At'u anji majeza kumboza ushahidhi wao wa ulongo ela k'aufwahire kit'u Mwisho kamare kuchambola anaalume airi
and said This mansaid I can destroy the Temple of God and build it again in three days,makiamba Mwanamulume yuyu waamba kukala ro Hekalu ra Mulungu anadima kuribanda-banda na akariaka kwa siku t'ahu
Then the high priest stood up and said to Jesus Dont you have anything to say about these charges against you Are they telling the truth,Bai ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye akirungarara na akimuza Jesu akiamba Mbona k'udzigidzya kit'u Zho manenazho ano at'u ni jeri
But Jesus said nothing,Ela Jesu akinyamala zii Ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye akinena kaheri akiamba Ninakulahiza kahi za dzina ra Mulungu ariye moyo ufwambire chamba uwe ndiwe Masihi Mwana wa Mulungu
Jesus answered Yes thats right But I tell you in the future you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right side of God And you will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven,Jesu akimwamba Udzanena Nami namwambira ujeri kula vivi mundamona Mwana wa Mudamu akelesi mukono wa kurya wa Mulungu mwenye nguvu na anadza kuno a dzulu za maingu
When the high priest heard this he tore his clothes in anger He said This man has said things that insult God We dont need any more witnesses You all heard his insulting words,Kusikira vizho thu ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye akigwira nguwo za kwakwe akizitharura kwa kutsukirwa kuno ananena na kuamba Iyo ni kufuru kamare iyo K'amudzamusikira zho Vino funa haja ya mashahidhi angine
What do you think,Hedu munaambadze nwi Na osini makiamba Anavirya kwalagwa
Then some there spit in Jesus face and they hit him with their fists Others slapped him,Ndo makimutsuhira mahe ga uso na kumupiga makonde Angine makimupiga makofi
They said Show us that you are a prophetMessiah Tell us who hit you,kuno manamwamba We Masihi fwambire adzekupiga ni h'ani kala u nabii jeri
While Peter was sitting outside in the yard a servant girl came up to him She said You were with Jesus that man from Galilee,Wakathi uu wosi P'et'ero were akelesi ko muhalani Bai arihokala kuko muhendzi wa kazi wa kiche wa ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye wakudzamwamba P'et'ero We nawe samba were u hamwenga na yuyu Jesu wa Galilaya
But Peter told everyone there that this was not true I dont know what you are talking about he said,P'et'ero akikana mbere zao akiamba Maneno gago mino sigamanya
Then he left the yard At the gate another girl saw him and said to the people there This man was with Jesus of Nazareth,Kula haho P'et'ero akimbola achenda ko muviryani Anafika kuko musichana mumwenga akimona na akiambira o at'u mariokala haho kukala Yuyu naye were a hamwenga na Jesu wa Nazareth'i benwi
Again Peter said he was never with Jesus He said I swear to God I dont know the man,P'et'ero akikanaiza kaheri kwa kuapa akiamba Mwanamulume iye simumanya kamare
A short time later those standing there went to Peter and said We know you are one of them Its clear from the way you talk,Ela k'avitoere o at'u mariokala maimire haho makimwamba P'et'ero Uwe be unakana ulongo ela u mumwenga waho Hatha yo minenereyo inanyesa t'i
Then Peter began to curse He said I swear to God I dont know the man As soon as he said this a rooster crowed,P'et'ero akikwatya kulani na kulaha akiamba Mwanamulume iye be simumanya Na haho henye jogolo rikiika
Then he remembered what Jesus had told him Before the rooster crows you will say three times that you dont know me Then Peter went outside and cried bitterly,P'et'ero akikumbukira viryahu arizhoambwa ni Jesu kukala Kabila jogolo k'aridzaika undanikana k'ana t'ahu Bai achambola ko ndze achendarira na utsungu munji
Early the next morning all the leading priests and older leaders of the people met and decided to kill Jesus,Kurihocha o alombi abomu na athumia a Kiyahudi mathunganana kaheri makipanga viryahu mandizhohenda hatha mamwalage Jesu
They tied him led him away and handed him over to Pilate the governor,Bai mamuhala makimufunga na makimuhirika kwa luwali P'ilato
Judas saw that they had decided to kill Jesus He was the one who had handed him over When he saw what happened he was very sorry for what he had done So he took the 30 silver coins back to the priests and the older leaders,Juda arihoona kukala ro Baraza ratosa kukala mamwalage Jesu wadziutha sana hatha akihala zho visiku mirongo mihahu zha fedha achenda nazho kuko kwa alombi abomu na athumia a Kiyahudi ili akaaujire
Judas said I sinned I handed over to you an innocent man to be killed,Arihofika kuko waagololeza akiamba Nahenda dambi bomu kumusaliti mut'u asiye dambi na mut'u O makimwamba Gago be ni gako gago sino k'ahugamanya
So Judas threw the money into the Temple Then he went out from there and hanged himself,Naye kusikira vizho akihala zho visiku zha fedha akivitsuha mo Hekaluni achambola achendadzifunga lugwe
The leading priests picked up the silver coins in the Temple They said Our law does not allow us to keep this money with the Temple money because this money has paid for a mans death,Vikara o alombi abomu makivitsola-tsola viryahu visiku zha fedha gonya makiamba P'esa zizi be zina kilatso na Sheria yehu k'aihuruhusu kuika p'esa dza zizi kahi za akiba ya mumu Hekaluni
So they decided to use the money to buy a field called Potters Field This field would be a place to bury people who died while visiting in Jerusalem,Kwa vizho bada ya kuojana-ojana makivihala machendagula hat'u harihokala hakiifwa Munda wa Muumbi wa Nyungu hakale hat'u ha kuzikwa ajeni
That is why that field is still called the Field of Blood,Na kulaiza siku iyo hatha rero munda uwo unaifwa Munda wa Milatso
This showed the full meaning of what Jeremiah the prophet said,Kwa ut'u uwo wenye bai garyahu maneno garigonenwa ni nabii Jeremia gakithimira Kwani Jeremia wanena akiamba Mahala vizho visiku mirongo mihahu zha fedha iriyo were ndo bei ya kugulira mut'u iriyoikwa ni o ana a Iziraeli
They used those 30 silver coins to buy the potters field as the Lord commanded me,makivigula wo Munda wa Muumbi wa Nyungu here Bwana arizhonilagiza
Jesus stood before Pilate the governor who asked him Are you the king of the Jews,Vikara Jesu arihohirikwa kwa P'ilato waimishwa haho mbereze na P'ilato akimuza akiamba Vidze we ndiwe muthawali wa Ayahudi Jesu akimudzigidzya akimwamba Uwe udzanena
Then when the leading priests and the older Jewish leaders made their accusations against Jesus he said nothing,Ela o alombi abomu na athumia a Kiyahudi marihomushithaki Jesu wanyamala zii kamare
So Pilate said to him Dont you hear all these charges they are making against you Why dont you answer,P'ilato arihoona viryahu akimuza Jesu akiamba Go maut'u manji genye madzigoamba wagahenda unagasikira
But Jesus did not say anything and this really surprised the governor,Ela Jesu ye akithuwa kunyamala vizho bila kudzigidzya hatha ango mwenga hatha ye P'ilato vikimwangalaza zhomu zhenye
Every year at Passover time the governor would free one prisonerwhichever one the people wanted him to free,Kila sikuk'uu ya P'asaka P'ilato were ana mazowera ga kuambozera Ayahudi mufungwa mumwenga mandiyemutsagula enye
At that time there was a man in prison who was known to be very bad His name was Barabbas,Bai kahi za wakathi uwo kwere kuna mufungwa ariyekala adzaluta nguma dzinare ni Baraba
When a crowd gathered Pilate said to them I will free one man for you Which one do you want me to free Barabbas or Jesus who is called the Messiah,Kwa vizho o Ayahudi marihokundzumanyikana hamwenga P'ilato akiauza akiamba Nimwambozere Baraba hedu nimwambozere Jesu aifwaye Masihi
Pilate knew that they had handed Jesus over to him because they were jealous of him,Kwani P'ilato wamanya kukala o athumia a Kiyahudi madzamushithaki Jesu kwa sababu ya wivu thu
While Pilate was sitting there in the place for judging his wife sent a message to him It said Dont do anything with that man He is not guilty Last night I had a dream about him and it troubled me very much,Bai P'ilato arihokala anakeresi kahi za kihiche cha hukumu alamule muchewe akilagiza uvoro akiamba Maut'u gago be usigangirire kamare kwani mut'u yuyu be ni muhachi Mana usiku nidzaloha ndoso mbii-mbii sana dzulu za kwakwe Nayo ndoso iyo idzanisirinya
But the leading priests and older Jewish leaders told the people to ask for Barabbas to be set free and for Jesus to be killed,Ela o alombi abomu na o athumia a Kiyahudi makiangola-ngola o at'u kukala maambe mambozerwe Baraba ela Jesu ye alagwe
Pilate said I have Barabbas and Jesus Which one do you want me to set free for you,Kwa vizho P'ilato arihouza kaheri na kuamba Kahi za ano at'u airi munahendza nimwambozere h'ani O at'u makiamba Baraba
Pilate asked So what should I do with Jesus the one called the Messiah,P'ilato akiauza akiamba Na yuno Jesu aifwaye Masihi ye nimuhendedze Nao makinena kwa umwenga makiamba Naasulubiwe
Pilate asked Why do you want me to kill him What wrong has he done,P'ilato akiauza kaheri akiamba Kwani adzakosani kibomu Ela o hatha makikaza kupiga k'ululu makiamba Naasulubiwe
Pilate saw that there was nothing he could do to make the people change In fact it looked as if there would be a riot So he took some water and washed his handsin front of them all He said I am not guilty of this mans death You are the ones who are doing it,Bai P'ilato arihoona kukala hatha akaenderera kunena nao kidza k'avindafwaha kit'u na kidza o at'u were madzakwacha kuhenda fujo akihala madzi akioga mikono mbere za ro kundi ra at'u akiamba Milatso ya mut'u yuyu k'aidzulu yangu bule i dzulu zenu
The people answered We will take full responsibility for his death You can blame us and even our children,Na lola o at'u makidzigidzya kwa umwenga makiamba Milatsoye naikale dzulu zehu siswi na dzulu za ana ehu
Then Pilate set Barabbas free And he told some soldiers to beat Jesus with whips Then he handed him over to the soldiers to be killed on a cross,Kwa vizho P'ilato akiambozera Baraba gonya akiamuru Jesu apigwe vikotho ndo alazhwe akasulubiwe
Then Pilates soldiers took Jesus into the governors palace All the soldiers gathered around him,Jesu arihokala adzalazhwa akasulubiwe o shikari a luwali P'ilato mamuhala machangira naye mumo nyumbani mwa luwali na cho kikosi chosi cha shikari kikimudengereka
They took off Jesus clothes and put a red robe on him,Bai mamuhala makimuvula nguwo gonya makimuvika k'andzu th'une
Then they made a crown from thorny branches and put it on his head and they put a stick in his right hand Then they bowed before him making fun of him They said We salute you king of the Jews,Manambola haho makitengeza kiremba cha miya makimuvika Gonya makihala kidhath'a cha mwandzi makimugwiza kahi za wo mukonowe wa kurya Bai marihogonya vizho makikwacha kupiga mavindi na kumuvudhya Jesu na kumwamba K'una ut'u muheshimiwa muthawali wa Ayahudi
They spit on him Then they took his stick and kept hitting him on the head with it,Bai mamutsuhira mahe gonya makimunyagula cho kidhath'a makimupiga nacho mo kitswani
After they finished making fun of him the soldiers took off the robe and put his own clothes on him again Then they led him away to be killed on a cross,Marihokala madzamuvudhya zha kuthosha mamuvula yo k'andzu th'une makimuvika zo nguwoze kaheri makimuthongozha kwendamusulubisha
The soldiers were going out of the city with Jesus They saw a man from Cyrene named Simon and they forced him to carry Jesus cross,Vikara marihokala madzambola kwa P'ilato makwendani mumo ngirani mathungana mwanamulume mumwenga Muk'irene aifwaye Simoni Bai o shikari makimulazimisha autsukule wo musalaba wa Jesu
They came to the place called Golgotha Golgotha means The Place of the Skull,Bai makwenda vivii hatha hat'u haifwaho Gologoth'a yani Ribeshe ra Kitswa
There the soldiers gave Jesus some wine mixed with gallBut when he tasted it he refused to drink it,Makimup'a Jesu divai ya kutsanganywa na ut'u wa utsungu sana ela arihoithatha akikahala kuinwa
The soldiers nailed Jesus to a cross Then they threw dice to divide his clothes between them,Marihokala madzagonya kumusulubisha mahala zo nguwoze makizigazha kwa kuhenda kuzipigira k'ura
The soldiers stayed there to guard him,Gonya makikelesi haho kumurinda
They put a sign above his head with the charge against him written on it,Dzulu za cho kitswa cha Jesu haikwa kibao kirichoorwa kosa mariromushithakira Nacho chere kinaamba vivi
Two criminals were nailed to crosses beside Jesusone on the right and the other on the left,Jesu wasulubiwa hamwenga na aivi airi Mumwenga mukono wa kurya na mungine mukono wa kumots'o
People walked by and shouted insults at Jesus They shook their heads,At'u mariokira na haho arihosulubiwa Jesu mamusholera makithukusa vitswa zhao kikavudhye
and said You said you could destroy the Temple and build it again in three days So save yourself Come down from that cross if you really are the Son of God,makiamba Kw'aamba undaribanda ro Hekalu na uriake kwa siku t'ahu vino H'aya dziokole mwenye be vivi Chamba u Mwana wa Mulungu jeri thima kula ho musalabani
The leading priests the teachers of the law and the older Jewish leaders were also there They made fun of Jesus the same as the other people did,Na lola o alombi abomu na alimu a Sheria na athumia a Kiyahudi nao makimusholera dza vizho zha akizi a ngira Makiamba Waokola at'u angine ela vino k'adima kudzakola mwenye
They said He saved others but he cant save himself People say he is the king of Israel If he is the king he should come down now from the cross Then we will believe in him,Samba ni muthawali wa Iziraeli ye naathime kula ho musalabani naswi fundamuamini
He trusted God So let God save him now if God really wants him He himself said I am the Son of God,Amba ye were anamukuluhira Mulungu sana hatha anaamba kukala ni Mwana wa Mulungu H'aya kala ye Mulungu anamuhendza jeri be vivi naamwakole
And in the same way the criminals on the crosses beside Jesus also insulted him,Hatha aryahu aivi airi mariosulubiwa hamwenga naye kidza nao mamusholera dza vizho zha o angine
At noon the whole country became dark The darkness continued for three hours,Bada ya Jesu kusulubiwa ts'i yosi yagit'ana kiza kuandzira saa sitha muhadhi saa chenda
About three oclock Jesus cried out loudly,Inafika mwendo wa saa chenda Jesu akirira kwa sauthi bomu akiamba
Some of the people standing there heard this They said He is calling Elijah,Kusikira vizho angine kahi za ao at'u mariokala maimire haho makiamba Sirikizani anamwiha Elija benwi
Quickly one of them ran and got a sponge He filled the sponge with sour wine and tied the sponge to a stick Then he used the stick to give the sponge to Jesus to get a drink from it,Na haho na haho mumwenga wao akikot'a malo achendavwika buwa kahi za siki akiridunga mudhath'ani akimup'a Jesu anyunye
But the others said Dont bother him We want to see if Elijah will come to save him,Ela andziye makimwamba Richa hulole chamba Elija andakudzamuthizha Na mumwenga wao akihala fumo akimudunga lubavuni akimbola milatso na madzi
Again Jesus cried out loudly and then died,Bai Jesu akipiga k'ululu kaheri na akitoka roho
When Jesus died the curtain in the Temple was torn into two pieces The tear started at the top and tore all the way to the bottom Also the earth shook and rocks were broken,Na lola yo p'azia kahi za ro Hekalu yapashuka ikigazhika p'ande mbiri kula dzulu hatha ts'ini Ts'i ikithethema na mawe gakibandika-bandika
The graves opened and many of Gods people who had died were raised from death,Mbira nyinji za at'u a Mulungu zikigunuka na o at'u enye makifufuka
They came out of the graves And after Jesus was raised from death they went into the holy city and many people saw them,na machambola mo mbirani Na lola Jesu arihofufuka at'u aa mangira kahi za mudzi mueri wa Jerusalemu na makionewa ni at'u anji enye
The army officer and the soldiers guarding Jesus saw this earthquake and everything that happened They were very afraid and said He really was the Son of God,Bai o shikari mariokala manamurinda Jesu hamwenga na ye mubomu wao marihoona zho ts'i irizhokala inathethema hamwenga na go maut'u mangine gosi mangirwa ni woga sana hatha makiamba Yuyu were ni Mwana wa Mulungu jeri
Many women were standing away from the cross watching These were the women who had followed Jesus from Galilee to care for him,Kwere kuna anaache mariomuthuwa Jesu hangu Galilaya Anaache aa ndo mariokala makimwaviza Jesu na mahitaji ga kwakwe Bai makala maimire kure vichache kulolera kila kirichokala
Mary Magdalene Mary the mother of James and Joseph and the mother of James and Johnwere there,Kahi zao were hana Maryamu Magidalena Maryamu mameye Jakobu na Josefu na mameye Jakobu na Johana ana a Zebedayo
That evening a rich man named Joseph came to Jerusalem He was a follower of Jesus from the town of Arimathea,Kurihokala kunakala kidziloni kukidza mwanamulume mumwenga wa kula Arimath'ea ariyeifwa Josefu Mwanamulume yuyu were naye ni mwanafundzi wa Jesu na were ni thajiri
He went to Pilate and asked to have Jesus body Pilate gave orders for the soldiers to give Jesus body to him,Bai wakwenda hatha kwa P'ilato achendamuvoya P'ilato amup'e mwiri wa Jesu akauzike Naye P'ilato akilagiza agerwe
Then Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a new linen cloth,Kwa vizho Josefu akiuhala akiulinga-linga ts'andza ya kitani safi
He put Jesus body in a new tomb that he had dug in a wall of rock Then he closed the tomb by rolling a very large stone to cover the entrance After he did this he went away,na achendauzika kahi za mbiraye mwenye ariyokala waitsonga iweni Mbira ii were ni mbisha yenye hatha were k'aidzazikwa mut'u Bai wamwangiza mumo na akisukuma ro iwe akifunga gonya akihauka
Mary Magdalene and the other woman named Mary were sitting near the tomb,Wakathi uwo Josefu arihokala anamuzika Jesu Maryamu Magidalena na ye Maryamu mungine were makelesi kulolana na iyo mbira manalolera
That day was the day called Preparation day The next day the leading priests and the Pharisees went to Pilate,Siku ya hiriye yani yo siku iriyothuwana na yo Siku ya Mathayarisho o alombi abomu na Mafarisayo makwendathunganana na P'ilato
They said Sir we remember that while that liar was still alive he said I will rise from death in three days,Makimwamba Muheshimiwa at'u siswi be fudzakumbukira ut'u umwenga siswi Yuyahu mulongo arihokala achere moyo waamba kukala bada ya siku t'ahu andafufuka
So give the order for the tomb to be guarded well for three days His followers might come and try to steal the body Then they could tell everyone that he has risen from death That lie will be even worse than what they said about him before,Kwa vizho bai lagiza shikari makarinde yo mbira muhaka yo siku ya hahu Kwani kala k'ahundahenda vizho o anafundzi a kwakwe manadima kudzamwiya gonya makaambira at'u kukala adzafufuka Na ulongo uwo undakala mui zhomu hatha uwo wa kwandza mbai
Pilate said Take some soldiers and go guard the tomb the best way you know,P'ilato akiamba Shikari munao kwa vizho hakikishani kukala inarindwa zha kuthosha
So they all went to the tomb and made it safe from thieves They did this by sealing the stone in the entrance and putting soldiers there to guard it,Kwa vizho machendahala ro iwe ra ho muryangoni makiripiga muhuri Gonya makiika shikari marinde
The day after the Sabbath day was the first day of the week That day at dawn Mary Magdalene and the other woman named Mary went to look at the tomb,Sabato irihokala idzakira siku ya kwandza ya wiki na madzach'a maitsi genye Maryamu Magidalena na ye Maryamu mungine marauka kwenda ko mbirani makailole
Suddenly an angel of the Lord came from the sky and there was a huge earthquake The angel went to the tomb and rolled the stone away from the entrance Then he sat on top of the stone,Na lola haho henye ts'i ikithethema zhomu zhenye kwa kukala malaika wa Bwana watharamuka kula dzulu akidzaripingilisa ro iwe ra kusindikira yo mbira akirikelesira
The angel was shining as bright as lightning His clothes were as white as snow,Uso wa malaika iye were unang'ala here lumethe na nguwo za kwakwe were ni nyaruhe tse-tse-tse
The soldiers guarding the tomb were very afraid of the angel They shook with fear and then became like dead men,Aryahu shikari mariokala manarinda yo mbira makivinwa ni miri kwa woga hatha makikala here at'u madziofwa
The angel said to the women Dont be afraid I know you are looking for Jesus the one who was killed on the cross,Ela ye malaika akinena na o anaache akiamba Musigohe bule Ninamanya kukala munamumala ye Jesu ariyesulubiwa
But he is not here He has risen from death as he said he would Come and see the place where his body was,bai k'aho bule haha Adzafufuka here arizhonena Hatha ndzoni muhalole ho ariholazwa
And go quickly and tell his followers Jesus has risen from death He is going into Galilee and will be there before you You will see him there Then the angel said Now I have told you,Na mukila haha yerani malo mukaambire anafundzie kukala Adzafufuka kula kifwani na lola anamuthangulia kwenda Galilaya nanwi mundakwenda mukamone kuko H'aya nidzamwambira mino
So the women left the tomb quickly They were afraid but they were also very happy They ran to tell his followers what happened,Bai o anaache mahauka haraka haryahu mbirani kuno mana raha jeri-jeri idzaho wo woga were k'audzaambola Mauka malo mende makaambire o anafundzi dzulu za maut'u gago
Suddenly Jesus was there in front of them He said Hello The women went to him and holding on to his feet worshiped him,Marihokala makwendani lola Jesu akiambolera gafula mbere zao akialamusa akiamba Voro Na lola o anaache makimusongerera makimugwira go magulu makimuvoya
Then Jesus said to them Dont be afraid Go tell my followersto go to Galilee They will see me there,Jesu akinena akiamba Musigohe bule Endani mukaambire o ndugu zangu mende Galilaya nao mandanona kuko
The women went to tell the followers At the same time some of the soldiers who were guarding the tomb went into the city They went to tell the leading priests everything that happened,Vikara marihokala o anaache makwendani lola shikari angine kahi za aryahu mariokala manarinda yo mbira mangira mumo Jerusalemu machendaambira o alombi abomu kila kit'u kirichokala kidzahendeka
Then the priests met with the older Jewish leaders and made a plan They paid the soldiers a lot of money,Bai aryahu alombi makithunganana na o athumia a Kiyahudi na makipanga kukala maahonge o shikari Kwa vizho makiap'a p'esa nyinji zenye
and said to them Tell the people that Jesus followers came during the night and stole the body while you were sleeping,gonya makiambira kukala Ambani kukala usiku hudzihokala hurere anafundzie madziremuiya makenda naye
If the governor hears about this we will talk to him and keep you out of trouble,Na luwali akivisikira hundanena naye siswi hatha athosheke p'ore mukangira matatani
So the soldiers kept the money and obeyed the priests And that story is still spread among the Jews even today,Bai o shikari makizihala zo p'esa na makihenda here marizholagizwa Na lola ulongo uu watsamuka kahi za Ayahudi hatha vivi
The eleven followers went to Galilee to the mountain where Jesus told them to go,Badaye aryahu anafundzi kumi na mumwenga a Jesu mauka kwenda Galilaya Makwenda vivii hatha makifika wo murima ariolagiza Jesu kukala mathunganane
On the mountain the followers saw Jesus They worshiped him But some of the followers did not believe that it was really Jesus,Bai marihomona madzigwaga mbereze makimuvoya idzaho angine were machere mana mioyo miri-miri
So he came to them and said All authority in heaven and on earth is given to me,Jesu akiasongerera hehi na akinena nao akiamba Mimi nagerwa wadimi wosi dzulu mulunguni na ts'i
So go and make followers of all people in the world Baptize them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,Kwa vizho endani mukaahendye at'u a makabila gosi makale anafundzi angu Muabat'ize kahi za dzina ra Baba na ra Mwana na ra Roho Mweri
Teach them to obey everything that I have told you to do You can be sure that I will be with you always I will continue with you until the end of time,Na muafundishe magagwire maut'u gosi nirigomulagiza Na lola mimi nindakala hamwenga nanwi siku zosini muhaka mwisho wa dhunia
The Good News about Jesus the Messiah the Son of Godbegins,Uu ndo Uvoro Udzo wa Jesu Masihi Mwana wa Mulungu
with what the prophet Isaiah said would happen He wrote,Uvoro uu Udzo waandza here arizhokala nabii Isaya waora kukala Mulungu waamba
There is someone shouting in the desert,Mut'u iye analuta mumirowe ko nyika na kuamba
So John the Baptizer came and was baptizing people in the desert area He told them to be baptized to show that they wanted to change their lives and then their sins would be forgiven,Bai muhumwa yuyu were ni mut'u mumwenga aifwaye Johana Mubat'izaji naye waonewa ko nyika akikala anahubiri na kuamba Thubuni mubat'izwe na Mulungu andamusamehe dambi zenu
All the people from Judea including everyone from Jerusalem came out to John They confessed the bad things they had done and he baptized them in the Jordan River,Na at'u anji makwendamusirikiza Johana At'u aa mambola jimbo ra Judea na wo mudziwe mubomu uifwao Jerusalemu Nao maziungama dambi zao na Johana akiabat'iza kahi za wo muho wa Jorodani
John wore clothes made from camels hair and a leather belt around his waist He ate locusts and wild honey,Johana were valore ni ra nyoga za ngamira naye wadzifunga mukanda wa k'ingo mo chununi Naye wakala akirya kw'eth'eth'e na uchi wa nyuchi
This is what John told the people There is someone coming later who is able to do more than I can I am not good enough to be the slave who stoops down to untie his sandals,Naye kahi za kuhubirikwe waamba Kunadza mut'u mwenye cheo kuriko mimi nyuma zangu Mimi sifika hatha mut'u wa kumuvula virahuzhe
I baptize you with water but the one who is coming will baptize you with the Holy Spirit,Mimi ninamubat'iza na madzi ela iye andamubat'iza na Roho Mweri
About that time Jesus came from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to the place where John was John baptized Jesus in the Jordan River,Na kahi za siku zizo Jesu wakudza kula Nazareth'i kahi za jimbo ra Galilaya na Johana akimubat'iza kahi za wo muho wa Jorodani
As Jesus was coming up out of the water he saw the sky torn open The Spirit came down on him like a dove,Na Jesu arihokala akumbolani mo madzini akiona ko mulunguni kudzagunuka na Roho anatserera dzuluze here giya
A voice came from heaven and said You are my Son the one I love I am very pleased with you,Na kukimbola sauthi kula ko mulunguni ikiamba Uwe u Mwanangu muhendzwi unifwahizaye
Then the Spirit sent Jesus into the desert alone,Na mara mwenga ye Roho Mweri akimuhendya ende nyika
He was there for 40 days being tempted by Satan During this time he was out among the wild animals Then angels came and helped him,Akikala ko nyika siku mirongo mine na Shethani wakala akimujeza Nao malaika makikala manamuhumikira Jesu were a hamwenga na nyama a tsakani ko nyika
After John was put in prison Jesus went into Galilee and told people the Good News from God,Bada ya Johana Mubat'izaji kugwirwa na kwangizwa jela Jesu wakwenda ko jimbo ra Galilaya na achendahubiri Uvoro Udzo wa Mulungu
He said The right time is now here Gods kingdom is very nearChange your hearts and lives and believe the Good News,Na Jesu waambira at'u vivi Wakathi uriwoambwa udzathimira na uthawali wa Mulungu udzafika hehi Kwa vizho thubuni dambi zenu na muukuluhire wo Uvoro Udzo wa Mulungu
Jesus was walking by Lake Galilee He saw Simonand his brother Andrew These two men were fishermen and they were throwing a net into the lake to catch fish,Siku mwenga Jesu arihokala ananenda mo k'anda-k'anda ya ziya ra Galilaya waona avuhi airi ambao were ni Simoni na nduguye ariyeifwa Anderea Nao were manatsuha vimia zhao mo ziyani mavuhe makumba
Jesus said to them Come follow me and I will make you a different kind of fishermen You will bring in people not fish,Jesu akiambira Nithuwani nami nindamuhendya mukale avuhi a at'u
So they immediately left their nets and followed Jesus,Nao haho kwa haho makiviricha zho vimia zhao na makimuthuwa
Jesus continued walking by Lake Galilee He saw two more brothers James and John the sons of Zebedee They were in their boat preparing their nets to catch fish,Gonya Jesu akisongera ho mbere vichache na akiaona Jakobu na Johana ana a Zebedayo ma dauni mwao manafuma vimia zhao
Their father Zebedee and the men who worked for him were in the boat with the brothers When Jesus saw the brothers he told them to come They left their father and followed Jesus,Naye ko kuaona thu akiaiha Bai ye mut'u na nduguye makimuricha babiyao Zebedayo na o at'u a kuhenda kukodisha mo dauni na makimuthuwa Jesu
Jesus and his followers went to Capernaum On the Sabbath day Jesus went into the synagogue and taught the people,Bai Jesu na o anafundzie machenda kahi za mudzi wa Kaperinaumu na irihofika siku ya Sabato Jesu achangira kahi za sinagogi na akiandza kufundisha
They were amazed at his teaching He did not teach like their teachers of the law He taught like someone with authority,Na lola o at'u mariomusikira mangalazwa zhomu ni go mafundishoge kwani were k'afundisha dza here alimu a Sheria mafundishazho ela were anafundisha here mut'u mwenye wadimi
While Jesus was in the synagogue a man was there who had an evil spirit inside him The man shouted,Saa iyo-iyo mumo sinagogini mukidza mut'u mwenye p'ep'o Akipiga k'ululu
Jesus of Nazareth What do you want with us Did you come to destroy us I know who you areGods Holy One,akiamba Unani naswi we Jesu wa Nazareth'i Vidze udzire uhunonge-nonge Ninamanya uwe u h'ani Uwe u Mweringwa wa Mulungu
Jesus his voice full of warning said Be quiet and come out of him,Kusikira vizho Jesu akimuchemera ye p'ep'o akimwamba Hedu nyamala kare na umwambole
The evil spirit made the man shake Then the spirit made a loud noise and came out of him,Ye p'ep'o akimuthukusa ye mut'u zhomu zhenye kuno anapiga k'ululu na kumwambola ye mut'u
The people were amazed They asked each other What is happening here This man is teaching something new and he teaches with authority He even commands evil spirits and they obey him,Na o at'u osini mo sinagogini makingalala na makiuzana-uzana makiamba Ut'u uno ni ut'u wani Mut'u yuyu ana wadimi wa kualagiza p'ep'o mambole na o p'ep'o manahenda vizho zhenye Ni mafundisho masha gano hedu dze
So the news about Jesus spread quickly everywhere in the area of Galilee,Kwa vizho uvoro wa Jesu ukitsamuka haraka kila hat'u kahi za jimbo ra Galilaya
Jesus and the followers left the synagogue They all went with James and John to the home of Simon and Andrew,Bai Jesu na Jakobu na Johana na anafundzie angine marihombola kahi za ro sinagogi thu makwenda kare hatha nyumbani kwa Simoni na Anderea
Simons motherinlaw was very sick She was in bed and had a fever The people there told Jesus about her,Vikara kuko mutsedza wa Simoni wa kiche were a kitandani ana homa Bai marihofika thu Jesu achambirwa kare dzuluze
So he went to her bed Jesus held her hand and helped her stand up The fever left her and she was healed Then she began serving them,Jesu achenda hehi achendamugwira mukono akimwaviza kurungarara Na ro homa rikimuricha hatha akiandza kuahikirahikira
That night after the sun went down the people brought to Jesus many who were sick They also brought those who had demons inside them,Dzulo riro bada ya dzuwa kupothoka akongo osi na o mariokala mapagawa ni p'ep'o marefwa kwa Jesu
Everyone in the town gathered at the door of that house,Na o at'u osi a wo mudzi wa Kaperinaumu makundzumanyika ho mulomoni ha yo nyumba
Jesus healed many of those who had different kinds of sicknesses He also forced many demons out of people But he would not allow the demons to speak because they knew who he was,Bai Jesu akiahoza anji mariokala na makongo ga kila namuna na achamboza at'u p'ep'o anji Kidza o p'ep'o k'aap'ere kadzanya ka kunena kwa kukala mere manamanya iye ni h'ani
The next morning Jesus woke up very early He left the house while it was still dark and went to a place where he could be alone and pray,Madzach'a maitsi siku ya hiriye Jesu wambola akiuka achenda hat'u nyika hariho k'ahana mut'u na achendavoya
Later Simon and his friends went to look for Jesus,Ndo Simoni na andziye makikwatya kumudengereka
They found him and said Everyone is looking for you,Marihomona makimwamba At'u osi manakumala kuryahu
Jesus answered We should go to another place We can go to other towns around here and I can tell Gods message to those people too That is why I came,Ela Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Hindeni kahi za vidzidzi vingine virizho hehi na haha Vinavirya nikahubiri mo vidzidzini namo kwa kukala vizho ndo virizhonireha
So Jesus traveled everywhere in Galilee He spoke in the synagogues and he forced demons out of people,Kwa vizho achenda kahi za Galilaya yosi kuhubiri kahi za masinagogi na kumboza at'u p'ep'o
A man who had leprosy came to Jesus The man bowed on his knees and begged him You have the power to heal me if you want,Siku mwenga hakidza mut'u wa mahana kwa Jesu akipiga mavindi na akimuvoya akiamba Ukihendza unadima ukanihoza
These last words made Jesus angryBut he touched him and said I want to heal you Be healed,Jesu akidzalwa ni mbazi na akigoloza mukono akimugut'a na akiamba Ninahendza hola
Immediately the leprosy disappeared and the man was healed,Na go mahana gachangamika mara mwenga na akihola kamare
Jesus told the man to go but he gave him a strong warning,Jesu akimwamba ye mut'u kukala ahauke kare na kidza akimukokot'era zhomu zhenye akimwamba
Dont tell anyone about what I did for you But go and let the priest look at youAnd offer a gift to God because you have been healed Offer the gift that Moses commandedThis will show everyone that you are healed,Vivi be usizhambire mut'u bule ela enda ukamwanyese mulombi gonya umboze sadaka ya ko kuholako yo ariyolagiza Musa ili kila mut'u amanye kukala udzahola jeri
The man left there and told everyone he saw that Jesus had healed him So the news about Jesus spread And that is why he could not enter a town if people saw him He stayed in places where people did not live But people came from all the towns to the places where he was,Ela ye mut'u achenda na achendakwacha kuuvumisha wo uvoro kila hat'u Lola wanena zhomu hatha Jesu akikala k'adima kwenda kahi za mudzi vivi-vivi hat'u ha vizho akikala kut'u kungine-kungine kuriko k'akuna at'u ela hamwenga na vizho at'u makimudzirira kula kila hat'u
A few days later Jesus came back to Capernaum The news spread that he was back home,Siku ch'ach'e zirihokira Jesu wauya Kaperinaumu kaheri na uvoro ukivuma kare kukala adzire
A large crowd gathered to hear him speak The house was so full that there was no place to stand not even outside the door While Jesus was teaching,Makundi na makundi ga at'u makiidzaza yo nyumba ariyokala Jesu K'ahakalire na kadzanya hatha ko muryangoni mwa nyumba naye Jesu were anaafundisha neno ra Mulungu
some people brought a paralyzed man to see him He was being carried by four of them,Ana alume ane makidza kuno madzamutsukula mut'u wa kuholoza manamureha kwa Jesu
But they could not get the man inside to Jesus because the house was so full of people So they went to the roof above Jesus and made a hole in it Then they lowered the mat with the paralyzed man on it,Kwa wo unji wa at'u k'amadimire kwangira naye Ndo makivomola ko dzulu ya yo nyumba dzulu za ho arihokala Jesu makimutharamusha na godhoro ye mut'u muhaka mbere za Jesu
When Jesus saw how much faith they had he said to the paralyzed man Young man your sins are forgiven,Jesu arihoona ro kuluhiro rao akimwamba ye ariyeholoza Mwanangu udzasamehewa dambizo
Some of the teachers of the law were sitting there They saw what Jesus did and they said to themselves,Bai alimu a Sheria mariokala were makelesi haho marihosikira vizho madziuza kimoyo-moyo makiamba
Why does this man say things like that What an insult to God No one but God can forgive sins,Anadimadze kunena vino yuno Ni kufuru ii Mulungu h'akeye nde adimaye kusamehe dambi
Jesus knew immediately what these teachers of the law were thinking So he said to them Why do you have these questions in your minds,Haho henye Jesu kahi za rohoye akigamanya go maswali gao akiauza Mbona munadziuza maswali dza go
When some teachers of the law who were Pharisees saw Jesus eating with such bad people they asked his followers Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners,Ela alimu a Sheria mario were ni Mafarisayo marihomona Jesu anarya hamwenga na at'u aa maauza o anafundzie makiamba Mbona yuno anarya na athozi a kodi hamwenga na enye dambi
When Jesus heard this he said to them It is the sick people who need a doctor not those who are healthy I did not come to invite good people I came to invite sinners,Bai Jesu arihogasikira gago akiambira Mukongo nde mwenye haja ya muganga ela muzima k'ana haja ya muganga bule Mimi nakudzaaiha enye dambi sidzireaiha enye hachi
The followers of John and the Pharisees were fasting Some people came to Jesus and said Johns followers fast and the followers of the Pharisees fast But your followers dont fast Why,Anafundzi a Johana na Mafarisayo were makafunga bai kukidza at'u kwa Jesu na makidzamuza makiamba Anafundzi a Johana na anafundzi a Mafarisayo ni kufunga mbona o a kwako we k'amafunga
Jesus answered At a wedding the friends of the bridegroom are not sad while he is with them They cannot fast while the bridegroom is still there,Jesu akiamba Vidze ajeni a harusini ni kufunga na hatha ye bwana harusi manaye haho Hatha Makalaho na iye bwana harusi k'amadima kufunga bule
But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them Then they will fast,Ela siku zinadza ambazo ye bwana harusi andauswa kahikahi zao na wakathi uwo ukifika mandafunga
When someone sews a patch over a hole in an old coat they never use a piece of cloth that is not yet shrunk If they do the patch will shrink and pull away from the coat Then the hole will be worse,K'ahana mut'u adimaye kuhala nguwo ya kapindi akayangiza kiraka kisha Mana mut'u akihenda vizho kiryahu kiraka kisha kindayamola yo nguwo ya kapindi chambole na kindaihendya ikale na t'undu bomu kukira iyo ya chaho
Also no one ever pours new wine into old wineskins The wine would break them and the wine would be ruined along with the wineskins You always put new wine into new wineskins,Na k'ahana mut'u adimaye kwangiza divai mbisha kahi za viriba zha kapindi Kwani mut'u akihenda vizho iryahu divai indavipashula zho viribana yo divai hamwenga na zho viriba zhosi andavikosa Ela divai mbisha zhakwe ni viriba visha
On the Sabbath day Jesus and his followers were walking through some grain fields The followers picked some grain to eat,Siku mwenga iriyokala ni Sabato Jesu were anakira kahi za minda ya ngano na o anafundzi mario were ma hamwenga naye makikwatya kuhuta masuche ga yo ngano
Some Pharisees said to Jesus Why are your followers doing this It is against the law to pick grain on the Sabbath,Bai o Mafarisayo mario were ma ho hehi-hehi marihoona vizho makimwamba Jesu Kwanoni ano manahenda ut'u uriwo k'auhendwa siku ya Sabato
Jesus answered You have read what David did when he and the people with him were hungry and needed food,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Muthawali Daudi wahendadze harya arihokala iye na o at'u ariokala nao mana ndzala na manahitaji chakurya Hedu k'amudzavishoma
It was during the time of Abiathar the high priest David went into Gods house and ate the bread that was offered to God And the Law of Moses says that only priests can eat that bread David also gave some of the bread to the people with him,Daudi wakwenda kahi za nyumba ya Mulungu wakathi Abiathari arihokala nde mulombi mubomu mwenye akiirya yo mikahe ya sadaka gonya akiap'a aryahu andziye nao makirya vingahokala kulingana na sheria were ni alombi h'akiyao ndo madimao kuirya
Then Jesus said to the Pharisees The Sabbath day was made to help people People were not made to be ruled by the Sabbath,Jesu akisindikiza na kuamba Yo siku ya Sabato yaikirwa mudamu ela mudamu k'aumbirwe kwa ut'u wa Sabato bule
So the Son of Man is Lord of every day even the Sabbath,Bai Mwana wa Mudamu ni Bwana hatha wa yo siku ya Sabato
Another time Jesus went into the synagogue In the synagogue there was a man with a crippled hand,Gonya kaheri siku mwenga iriyokala ni siku ya Sabato Jesu achangira kahi za sinagogi na mumo mukikala muna mut'u mwenye mukono wa kuholoza
Some Jews there were watching Jesus closely They were waiting to see if he would heal the man on a Sabbath day They wanted to see Jesus do something wrong so that they could accuse him,Bai hakikala hana Mafarisayo mario were manamala chausa cha kumushithakira Jesu kwa vizho makilolera maone chamba andamuhoza yo siku ya Sabato makamushithaki
Jesus said to the man with the crippled hand Stand up here so that everyone can see you,Jesu akimwambira ye mut'u ariyeholoza mukono Ungarara ho kahikahi hedu
Then Jesus asked the people Which is the right thing to do on the Sabbath day to do good or to do evil Is it right to save a life or to destroy one The people said nothing to answer him,Gonya Jesu akiauza o Mafarisayo akiamba Vidze kisheria ni hiro ririro ni karakara kuhendwa siku ya Sabato Vidze ni kuhenda madzo hedu mai Ni kuthizha hedu ni kwalaga Ela makinyamala zii
Jesus looked at the people He was angry but he felt very sad because they were so stubborn He said to the man Hold out your hand The man held out his hand and it was healed,Jesu akialola o Mafarisayo kuno atsukirwe akidzalwa ni kigondzi kwa ut'u wa kukosa mbazi kwao Gonya akimwamba ye mut'u Goloza wo mukonowo hedu Akiugoloza nawo ukiuyat'o kare
Then the Pharisees left and made plans with the Herodians about a way to kill Jesus,Ndo ao Mafarisayo machambola na machendathunganana na at'u a Herode kupanga mandizhomwalaga Jesu
Jesus went away with his followers to the lake A large crowd of people from Galilee followed them,Bai Jesu hamwenga na anafundzie makiahaukira na machenda ko ziya ra Galilaya Vikara arihokala anenda ngororoki bomu ya at'u ikimuthuwa At'u aa angine mambola Galilaya jimbo ra Judea
Many also came from Judea from Jerusalem from Idumea from the area across the Jordan River and from the area around Tyre and Sidon These people came because they heard about all that Jesus was doing,na mudzi wa Jerusalemu na jimbo ra Idumea na kuvuka muho wa Jorodani Angine mambola vivalo zha Tiro na Sidoni Ao osi mamudzirira kwa kukala masikira go arigokala akigahenda Jesu
Jesus saw how many people there were so he told his followers to get a small boat and make it ready for him He wanted the boat so that the crowds of people could not push against him,Kwa ut'u wa wo muminyano wa o at'u anji Jesu walagiza o anafundzie mamuikire dau thithe ili asihoshwe ni at'u
He had healed many of them so all the sick people were pushing toward him to touch him,Were adzahoza akongo anji ndo anji angine mariokala k'amadima makihendza makukume hatha mamugut'e kwamba mahole nao
Some people had evil spirits inside them When the evil spirits saw Jesus they bowed before him and shouted You are the Son of God,Na yoyosi ariyepagawa ni p'ep'o arihomona Jesu wagolomokwa na akigwa mbereze akipiga k'ululu na kuamba Uwe ndiwe Mwana wa Mulungu
But Jesus gave the spirits a strong warning not to tell anyone who he was,Ela Jesu akiakokot'era sana masihende akamanywa iye ni h'ani
Then Jesus went up on a hill and invited those he wanted to go with him So they joined him there,Bada ya gago Jesu akikwera dzulu murimani na akiaiha aryahu arioahendza nao machenda ho arihokala
And he chose twelve men and called them apostles He wanted these twelve men to be with him and he wanted to send them to other places to tell people Gods message,Na gonya akitsagula kumi na airi na akiahendya makale ahumwie na makale hamwenga naye Kidza aahume kwendahubiri
He also wanted them to have the power to force demons out of people,na makale na wadimi wa kumboza at'u p'ep'o
These are the names of the twelve men Jesus chose,Gaga ndo madzina ga o kumi na airi mariotsagulwa ni Jesu Simoni ambaye Jesu wamup'a dzina ra P'et'ero
James and his brother John the sons of Zebedee the ones Jesus named Boanerges which means Sons of Thunder,Jakobu na Johana ana a Zebedayo ambao Jesu waaiha Boanerige ambaro manaye ni Ana a kigwaragwara
Andrew Philip Bartholomew MatthewThomasJames the son of AlphaeusThaddaeusSimon the Zealot,Anderea Filipu Bath'olomayo Math'ayo T'omasi Jakobu mwana wa Alifayo Th'adayo Simoni Muhehezi
Judas Iscariot the one who handed Jesus over to his enemies,na Juda Isikariote ariye nde ariyekudzamusaliti Jesu
Then Jesus went home but again a large crowd gathered there There were so many people that he and his followers could not eat,Arihogonya kuatsagula o ahumwie achangira nyumbani Bai ngororoki bomu ya at'u ikimwenderera kaheri hatha Jesu na anafundzie k'amapatire mwanya wa kurya chakurya
His family heard about all these things They went to get him because people said he was crazy,Ndo at'u a kwao marihosikira makiuka kwendamugwira makiamba Ana vilalu
And the teachers of the law from Jerusalem said Satanis living inside him He uses power from the ruler of demons to force demons out of people,Nao alimu a Sheria mariombola Jerusalemu maamba Ana Belizebulina anamboza p'ep'o kwa zo nguvu za iye mubomu wa p'ep'o
So Jesus called them together and talked to them using some stories He said Satan will not force his own demons out of people,Bai Jesu akiambira o at'u makundzumanyike gonya akiambira kwa mafumbo akiamba Vidze Shethani anadima kumwamboza Shethani mwandziwe
A kingdom that fights against itself will not survive,Ts'i at'ue makidzigazha makundi-makundi gahehago ts'i iyo k'aindatoa
And a family that is divided will not survive,Na mudzi ukigazhika na at'ue makikala k'amagwirana milomo be mudzi uwo k'aundatoa
If Satan is against himself and is fighting against his own people he will not survive That would be the end of Satan,Na Shethani akidzipinga na kudzigazha mwenye k'andatoa uwo ndo undokala mwishowe
Whoever wants to enter a strong mans house and steal his things must first tie him up Then they can steal the things from his house,K'akuna mut'u adimaye kungira kahi za nyumba ya mut'u mwenye nguvu na kumuhoka vit'uzhe hasiho kumufunga ye mwenye kwandza Niamufunge kwandza ndo adime kumuhoka zho vit'uzhe
I want you to know that people can be forgiven for all the sinful things they do They can even be forgiven for the bad things they say against God,Namwambira ujeri wenye anadamu mandasamehewa dambi zosi na kila kufuru mandiyonena
But anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven They will always be guilty of that sin,Ela mut'u andiyemukufuru Roho Mweri k'ana musamaha bule andakala adzahenda dambi ya kare na kare
Jesus said this because the teachers of the law had accused him of having an evil spirit inside him,Jesu wanena vivi kwa kukala angine were madzamwamba ana p'ep'o
Then Jesus mother and brothers came They stood outside and sent someone in to tell him to come out,Gonya mameye na nduguze Jesu a kilume makidza Makiima ko ndze ya yo nyumba makihuma mut'u akamwihe Jesu
Many people were sitting around Jesus They said to him Your mother and brothers are waiting for you outside,Wo muthunganano wa at'u mariokala makeresi na madzamudengereka makimwamba Jesu Lola mameyo na nduguzo manakumala ko ndze
Jesus asked Who is my mother Who are my brothers,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba M'ama na ndugu zangu ni hio
Then he looked at the people sitting around him and said These people are my mother and my brothers,Gonya akialolat'o o mariokala makeresi kumudengereka akiamba Aa be ndo m'ama na ndo ndugu zangu
My true brother and sister and mother are those who do what God wants,Kwani ahendaye mahendzo ga Mulungu nde m'ama na nde ndugu yangu
Another time Jesus began teaching by the lake and a large crowd gathered around him He got into a boat so that he could sit and teach from the lake All the people stayed on the shore near the water,Siku nyingine Jesu wakwenda kaheri k'anda-k'anda ya ro ziya akikwatya kufundisha Bai rikundi ribomu ra at'u rikimudzalira hatha akiona ni baha angire dauni akelesi mumo Naye wakelesi mo dauni kuno o at'u osi makikala ma ko ts'i furufu
Jesus used stories to teach them many things One of his lessons included this story,Na Jesu waafundisha maut'u manji kwa kuhumira mafumbo Kahi za mafundishoge akiambira
Listen A farmer went out to sow seed,Sirikizani Mut'u mumwenga wauka kwendamwaga-mwaga mbeyu mundani kwakwe
While he was scattering the seed some of it fell by the road The birds came and ate all that seed,Bai arihokala akuzimwagani-mwagani mbeyu nyingine ikigwa k'anda-k'anda ya ngira na unyama ukidzait'ot'a
Other seed fell on rocky ground where there was not enough dirt It grew quickly there because the soil was not deep,Mbeyu nyingine ikigwa kahi za mutsanga wa mawe-mawe harihokala hana mutsanga muchache Bai ikimera malo-malo kwa kukala were hana mutsanga muchache
But then the sun rose and the plants were burned They died because they did not have deep roots,Dzuwa ririhokola zhomu yo mitse ikinyala na ikifwa kwa kukala were k'aina miziji mire
Some other seed fell among thorny weeds The weeds grew and stopped the good plants from growing So they did not make grain,Mbeyu nyingine ikigwa miyani Irihomera miya iryahu ikikula na ikiizia-zia hatha k'aipatire nafasi ya kumbola ndze bule bai kwa ut'u uwo k'aizhalire kit'u
But some of the seed fell on good ground There it began to grow and it made grain Some plants made 30 times more grain some 60 times more and some 100 times more,Ela nyingine zikigwa kahi za mutsanga mudzo nazo zikimerat'o zikikula na zikizhala Nyingine zazhala mirongo mihahu-mihahu nyingine zikizhala mirongo mihandahu-mihandahu na nyingine zikizhala gana-gana
Then Jesus said You people who hear me listen,Jesu akimarigiza na kuamba Mwenye masikiro ga kusikirira naasikire
Later Jesus was away from the people The twelve apostles and his other followers asked him about the stories,Badaye Jesu arihokala adzarichana na yo ngororoki ya at'u aryahu anafundzie kumi na airi na angine kahi za ao mariokala madzagasikira go mafundishoge mamuza Jesu kwamba mambirwe mana ya go mafumbo
Jesus said Only you can know the secret truth about Gods kingdom But to those other people I tell everything by using stories,Jesu akiambira Ninwi mwajaliwa kuimanya yo siri ya uthawali wa Mulungu Ela o mario ndze ya wo uthawali manasikira kwa ngira ya mafumbo
I do this so that,kwamba
Then Jesus said to the followers Do you understand this story If you dont how will you understand any story,Gonya Jesu akiauza akiamba Fuambe k'amung'alirwa ni fumbo riri Bai mundang'alirwadze ni mafumbo mangine
The farmer is like someone who plants Gods teaching in people,Ye mulayi analaya neno ra Mulungu
Sometimes the teaching falls on the path That is like some people who hear the teaching of God As soon as they hear it Satan comes and takes away the teaching that was planted in them,At'u angine ma here ziryahu mbeyu zirizogwa k'anda-k'anda ya ngira At'u aa makigonya kusikira neno ra Mulungu Shethani nikudza mara mwenga na kurusa riro neno ririrolaywa mo mioyoni mwao
Other people are like the seed planted on rocky ground They hear the teaching and they quickly and gladly accept it,Ziryahu zirizogwa kahi za mutsanga wa mawe-mawe ni at'u mario makisikira neno thu manarihokera kare mara mwenga kidza manarihokera na raha
But they dont allow it to go deep into their lives They keep it only a short time As soon as trouble or persecution comes because of the teaching they accepted they give up,Ela kwa kukala k'arina miziji ndani mwao k'amatoa naro bule Thabu hedu mateso gaadziriraho kwa ut'u wa ro neno manaviricha kare
Others are like the seed planted among the thorny weeds They hear the teaching,Na at'u angine ma here yo mbeyu iriyogwa miyani Aa ni kusikira ro neno ra Mulungu
but their lives become full of other things the worries of this life the love of money and everything else they want This keeps the teaching from growing and it does not produce a cropin their lives,ela vata za urumwengu na ukengi wa mali na th'amaa za maut'u mangine zikiangira nikurikonya-konya ro neno hatha rikakala k'arindazhala kit'u
And others are like the seed planted on the good ground They hear the teaching and accept it Then they grow and produce a good cropsometimes 30 times more sometimes 60 times more and sometimes 100 times more,Ela at'u angine ma dza here iryahu mbeyu iriyogwa kahi za mutsanga mudzo At'u aa nikurisikira ro neno na kurikubali na kuzhala matunda Yuno mirongo mihahu yuya mirongo mihandahu na mungine gana zima
Then Jesus said to them You dont take a lamp and hide it under a bowl or a bed do you Of course not You put it on a lampstand,Jesu akienderera kufundisha akiamba K'akuna mut'u adimaye kugwiza taa gonya akaribiningiza na muvure hedu hatha kurika muvunguni Nikurika dzulu ya nyambaro
Everything that is hidden will be made clear Every secret thing will be made known,Mana kila kiricho hafufu kindambozwa halamu na kila siri indamanywa
You people who hear me listen,Mut'u mwenye masikiro ga kusikirira naasikire
Think carefully about what you are hearing God will know how much to give you by how much you understand now But he will give you more than you deserve,Kidza akiambira Sirikizani zhomu na mugagwire gaga nimwambirago Cho kipimo mupimiracho andziyenu ndicho mundichopimirwa ninwi kidza hatha mwangezezwe
The people who have some understanding will receive more But those who do not have much will lose even the small amount they have,Kwani kila ariye nacho andangezwa na ariye k'ana kit'u andahokwa hatha cho aricho nacho
Then Jesus said Gods kingdom is like a man who plants seed in the ground,Gonya Jesu akiamba Uthawali wa Mulungu u dza here viryahu mut'u amwagazho-mwagazho mbeyu mundani
The seed begins to grow It grows night and day It doesnt matter whether the man is sleeping or awake the seed still grows He doesnt know how it happens,Usiku ukifika analala mutsana anahenda makazige Muda uu wosi t'embe zinamera na kukula kuno ye k'amanya vinakuladze
Without any help the ground produces grain First the plant grows then the head and then all the grain in the head,Wo mutsanga h'akeye unaihenda yo mimera ikule na kuzhala mazhalo unambola wo mutse chaho gonya ro suche na kusindikiza na zo t'embe
When the grain is ready the man cuts it This is the harvest time,Suche rindihouma mwenye munda ni kudzavuna kwa kukala wakathi wa kwakwe udzafika
Then Jesus said What can I use to show you what Gods kingdom is like What story can I use to explain it,Kidza Jesu akiamba Huambedze kaheri dzulu za kuhalanisha uthawali wa Mulungu Fuhumire fumbo rani
Gods kingdom is like a mustard seed which is smaller than any other seed on earth that you can plant,Tha ni here katembe ka haradali kariko nikulaywa Katembe kaka ni kathithe kukira t'embe zosi haha urumwenguni
But when you plant it it grows and becomes the largest of all the plants in your garden It has branches that are very big The wild birds can come and make nests there and be protected from the sun,Bada ya makathi fulani ni kumera na ukakala mumera mubomu kukira mimera yosi ya mundani kwani ni kwamboza vitai ambazho unyama nikudza na kuaka vitsunji mumo
Jesus used many stories like these to teach the people He taught them all they could understand,Bai Jesu waafundisha at'u kuhumira mafumbo mangine manji here gaga Naye waafundisha here wadimi wao wa kung'alirwa urizhokala
He always used stories to teach them But when he was alone with his followers Jesus explained everything to them,Jesu k'afundishire at'u bila kuhumira mafumbo ela wakathi arihokala ana anafundzie were anaang'azira kila kit'u
That day at evening Jesus said to his followers Come with me across the lake,Bai dzulo ra yo siku iyo vizho Jesu akiambira anafundzie Nahuvuke ng'ambo
So they left the crowd behind and went with Jesus in the boat he was already in There were also other boats that went with them,Kwa vizho o anafundzi makiaricha o at'u na makipanda ro dau arirokala Jesu adzapanda na machenda naye Kidza were kuna madau mangine ga nyuma-nyuma
A very bad wind came up on the lake The waves were coming over the sides and into the boat and it was almost full of water,Ela k'avitoere kukidza luvutho lwa kitai na maimbi gakipiga ro dau hatha rikikwatya kudzala madzi
Jesus was inside the boat sleeping with his head on a pillow The followers went and woke him They said Teacher dont you care about us We are going to drown,Wakathi uu Jesu were hatha a ko mwisho wa ro dau adzaika kitswache muthoni na arere Bai o anafundzie makimuthukusa makiamba Mwalimu hunahoha k'ujali we
Jesus stood up and gave a command to the wind and the water He said Quiet Be still Then the wind stopped and the lake became calm,Bai Jesu akilamuka akiluchemera lo luvutho na akirambira ro ziya H'aya hurira Na lo luvutho lukiricha na go madzi gakihurira hu
He said to his followers Why are you afraid Do you still have no faith,Gonya Jesu akiauza anafundzie akiamba Mbona mu aoga Hedu k'amuna kuluhiro
They were very afraid and asked each other What kind of man is this Even the wind and the water obey him,Nao makikala manavinwa ni miri k'azhadimikika Makikwatya kuuzana-uzana na kuamba Ni h'ani yuno ariye hatha luvutho na maimbi vinamusikira
Jesus and his followers went across the lake to the area where the Gerasene people lived,Jesu na anafundzie makivuka ziya ra Galilaya makifika ts'i ya Agerasi
When Jesus got out of the boat a man came to him from the caves where the dead are buried This man had an evil spirit living inside him,Na arihothima mo dauni thu akithunganana na mut'u ariyekala adzalaa makaburini naye were ana p'ep'o
He lived in the burial caves No one could keep him tied up even with chains,Mut'u yuyu were siku zosi akala ko makaburini kidza k'ahana mut'u ariyedima kumufunga hatha kwa minyororo
Many times people had put chains on his hands and feet but he broke the chains No one was strong enough to control him,Akwao mere majeza zhomu kumufunga magulu na mikono ela kila marihomufunga waitosa yo minyororo na zho zhuma marizhomufunga maguluni Mut'u yuyu were yuna nguvu zhomu hatha were k'ahana amwadimaye
Day and night he stayed around the burial caves and on the hills He would scream and cut himself with rocks,Usiku na mutsana wakala akidengereka ko makaburini na ko virimani kuno anapiga londzo na kudzikop'ola vii-vii na mawe ga maso
While Jesus was still far away the man saw him He ran to Jesus and bowed down before him,Bai arihomona Jesu kwa kure achenda malo na akigwa mbereze
As Jesus was saying You evil spirit come out of this man the man shouted loudly What do you want with me Jesus Son of the Most High God I beg you in Gods name not to punish me,na akipiga k'ululu akiamba Unani nami we Jesu Mwana wa Mulungu ariye dzulu ya zhosi Bai ninakuvoya kwa dzina ra Mulungu usinitese
Then Jesus asked the man What is your name,Ye p'ep'o wanena vivi kwa kukala Jesu were anaamba P'ep'o mukolo mwambole mut'u yuyu
The spirits inside the man begged Jesus again and again not to send them out of that area,Jesu akimuza akiamba Dzinaro ndiwe h'ani Ye p'ep'o akiamba Dzina rangu ndimi majeshi kwa kukala hu anji mumu
A large herd of pigs was eating on a hill near there,Akimudhedheja zhomu ye Jesu kwamba asiainge kwenda ndze ya yo ts'i ya Agerasi
The evil spirits begged Jesus Send us to the pigs Let us go into them,Vikara haho were hana badhi bomu ra nguluwe rinarisa k'anda-k'anda ya karima
So Jesus allowed them to do this The evil spirits left the man and went into the pigs Then the herd of pigs ran down the hill and into the lake They were all drowned There were about 2000 pigs in that herd,O p'ep'o makimuvoya Jesu makiamba Fwambe fwende hukaangire aryahu nguluwe
The men who had the work of caring for the pigs ran away They ran to the town and to the farms and told everyone what happened The people went out to see,Jesu akiaruhusu na o p'ep'o akolo makimwambola ye mwanamulume na machendaangira o nguluwe Ro badhi ra nguluwe here alifu mbiri rikitharamuka malo kula ko ngokani rikivoromoka mo ziyani rikihoha
They came to Jesus and they saw the man who had the many evil spirits He was sitting down and was wearing clothes He was in his right mind again When they saw this they were afraid,Kuona vizho o arisa makichimbira na machenda ko midzini na mindani machendasema go garigokala gadzahendeka Na at'u duu makidzalola
Those who had seen what Jesus did told the others what happened to the man who had the demons living in him And they also told about the pigs,Makidza ho arihokala Jesu na makimona ye ariyekala ana p'ep'o anji akilize ni ndzima na were adzavala nguwo na akelesi haho na makingirwa ni woga
Then the people began to beg Jesus to leave their area,Aryahu mariokala madzazhona zho virizhokala vidzahendeka makiambira o at'u zho virizhokala vidzakala kwa ye mut'u na kwa o nguluwe
Jesus was preparing to leave in the boat The man who was now free from the demons begged to go with him,Na o at'u marihosikira vizho makimuvoya Jesu akulae kuko kwao
But Jesus did not allow the man to go He said Go home to your family and friends Tell them about all that the Lord did for you Tell them how the Lord was good to you,Vikara Jesu arihokala anangira mo dauni ye mut'u ariyembozwa p'ep'o wavoya ende na Jesu
So the man left and told the people in the Ten Towns about the great things Jesus did for him Everyone was amazed,Ela Jesu akimukahaza akimwamba Enda kwenu ukaambirize asenao go adzigokuhendera Bwana na viryahu adzizhokuonera mbazi
Jesus went back to the other side of the lake in the boat There a large crowd of people gathered around him on the shore,Kwa vizho ye mwanamulume akiuka achangira kahi za ro jimbo ra Midzi Kumi na akiambira at'u garyahu arigokala adzahenderwa ni Jesu Osi mariosikira uvoro uu machangalala
A leader of the synagogue came His name was Jairus He saw Jesus and bowed down before him,Jesu akivuka kaheri ro ziya muhaka ko nyangamoni Na ngororoki bomu ya at'u ikidza ho k'anda-k'anda ya ro ziya na makikala madzamuzunguluka
He begged Jesus again and again saying My little daughter is dying Please come and lay your hands on her Then she will be healed and will live,Mut'u mumwenga aifwaye Jairo ariyekala ni mumwenga kahi za abomu a masinagogi akidza haho Arihomona Jesu wagwa mbereze
So Jesus went with Jairus Many people followed Jesus They were pushing very close around him,na akimuvoya akiamba Musichana wangu akufwani Bai vichadimikika nafwende ukamwikire mikono apate kuthia
There among the people was a woman who had been bleeding for the past twelve years,Jesu akiuka kumuthuwa ye Jairo na at'u anji makimuthuwa ko arikokala anenda At'u aa were ni anji hatha angine were manamukwala-kwala kamare
She had suffered very much Many doctors had tried to help her and all the money she had was spent but she was not improving In fact her sickness was getting worse,Bai mo kahi ya yo ngororoki ya o at'u mwere muna mwanamuche mumwenga ariyekala adzakala mukongo wa kumbola milatso kwa miaka kumi na miri
The woman heard about Jesus so she followed him with the other people and touched his coat,Wathapathapa kwa aganga kuzikifwa vivii hatha vikishinda Hatha were malize zosi wazigonya kwa kuzikifwa ela hat'u ha ahende kabaha ye akikala tha anakazizwa
She thought If I can just touch his clothes that will be enough to heal me,Vikara mwanamuche yuyu were wasikira nguma ya Jesu bai wamuthuwa Jesu ko nyuma kuno ananena kimoyo-moyo na kuamba Nikigut'a ngaa ro valore thu nindahola Kwa vizho akirigut'a ro valo ra Jesu na yo milatso ikithuma kare saa iyo na akidzisikira adzahola
As soon as she touched his coat her bleeding stopped She felt that her body was healed from all the suffering,Haho henye Jesu akisikira nguvuze zidzamuhungukira Akiahundukira o at'u na akiauza akiamba Ni h'ani adziyegut'a valo rangu
Jesus immediately felt power go out from him so he stopped and turned around Who touched my clothes he asked,O anafundzie makimudzigidzya makiamba Unauza ni h'ani adzekugut'a k'uona bule zho marizho at'u ni anji hatha manakukwala-kwala
The followers said to Jesus There are so many people pushing against you But you ask Who touched me,Ela Jesu k'aadzigidzire akienderera kutsuha matso kuno na kuno aone ni h'ani adzevihenda
But Jesus continued looking for the one who touched him,Ye mwanamuche kuona zho vidzizhokala achenda mbere za Jesu kuno anathethemwa ni mwiri kwa woga na akidzigwaga mbereze na akimwambira Jesu gosi garigo were gadzahendeka
The woman knew that she was healed so she came and bowed at Jesus feet She was shaking with fear She told Jesus the whole story,Jesu akimwamba Mwanangu kuluhiro ra kwako ridzakuhoza Enda na dheri ukale muzima na mashakago gadzagoma
He said to her Dear woman you are made well because you believed Go in peace You will not suffer anymore,Bai Jesu arihokala ananena gaga poo at'u kula nyumbani kwa Jairo makimwamba Jairo Ye musichanao be adzamarigizika kwa vizho k'avimala umubudzye kaheri ye mwalimu
While Jesus was still there speaking some men came from the house of Jairus the synagogue leader They said Your daughter is dead There is no need to bother the Teacher,Jesu hatha k'agatiire shuhuli go maronena o at'u ela wamwamba Jairo Tha usogohe bewe kuluhira thuwe
But Jesus did not care what the men said He said to the synagogue leader Dont be afraid just believe,Bai arihokala anenda kuko kwa Jairo akiakahaza at'u masimuthuwe asihokala P'et'ero Jakobu na Johana nduguye ye Jakobu
Jesus let only Peter James and John the brother of James go with him,Marihofika nyumbani kwa Jairo makwendathekeza ha thele at'u mariokala manapiga k'ululu na kurira zhomu zhenye
They went to the synagogue leaders house where Jesus saw many people crying loudly There was a lot of confusion,Jesu achangira mo ndani akiambira o at'u Mbona munapiga k'ululu na kurira Ye muhoho k'afwere bule arere thu
He entered the house and said Why are you people crying and making so much noise This child is not dead She is only sleeping,O at'u kusikira vizho makimutseka Bai Jesu akiambira o at'u osi mambole ko ndze akiahala o azhazi a ye muhoho na o anafundzie ahahu na achenda mo chumbani arimokala ye muhoho
But everyone laughed at him,Jesu akimugwira mukono ye muhoho akimwamba
Then Jesus held the girls hand and said to her,Haho henye ye musichana arekala adzafwa akiungarara na akikwatya kunenda iye were ni muhoho wa miaka kumi na miri Bai o at'u marihoona zho vidzizhokala machangalala zhomu
The girl immediately stood up and began walking She was twelve years old The father and mother and the followers were amazed,Bai Jesu akiakokot'era zhomu masimwambire mut'u Gonya akiambira mamup'e ut'u wa kurya
Jesus gave the father and mother very strict orders not to tell people about this Then he told them to give the girl some food to eat,Jesu akiuka kuuya mudzi wa kwao Nazareth'i iye hamwenga na anafundzie
Jesus left and went back to his hometown His followers went with him,Na irihofika siku ya Sabato achangira sinagogini kufundisha Anji mariomusikira mangalazwa ni go mafundisho hatha makikwatya kuuzana-uzana Maut'u gano gosi be tha wagapatahi Na ni ulachu wani arougerwa mut'u yuno Ni miujiza yani ariyothalwa aihende yuno
On the Sabbath day Jesus taught in the synagogue and many people heard him They were amazed and said Where did this man get this teaching How did he get such wisdom Who gave it to him And where did he get the power to do miracles,Vidze yuno si yuyahu fundhi wa kutsonga mwana wa Maryamu Na samba nduguze ni Jakobu Jose Juda na Simoni Na nduguze a kiche samba fu hosi haha hehu Bai k'aviafahire
Isnt he just the carpenter we knowMarys son the brother of James Joses Judas and Simon And dont his sisters still live here in town So they had a problem accepting him,Ela Jesu akiambira Nabii anaishimiwa kila hat'u isihokala kahi za ts'i ya kwao na kahi za amanyie na mudzini kwao
Then Jesus said to them People everywhere give honor to a prophet except in his own town with his own people or in his home,Na kuko bai k'ahendere miujiza yoyosi isihokala waaikira mikono at'u achache mariokala ni akongo na akiahoza
Jesus was not able to do any miracles there except the healing of some sick people by laying his hands on them,Jesu achangalazwa zhomu ni kutsakuluhira kwao Gonya akidengereka mo midzi-midzi kufundisha
He was surprised that the people there had no faith Then he went to other villages in that area and taught,Siku mwenga Jesu waaiha aryahu anafundzi kumi na airi na akiahuma airi-airi Akiap'a wadimi dzulu za p'ep'o akolo
Jesus called his twelve apostles together He sent them out in groups of two and gave them power over evil spirits,Akiambira masitsukule kit'u chochosi mo charoni isihokala mudhath'a thu h'akeye Masitsukule leu hedu mukoba hedu hatha p'esa zozosi mabindoni mwao
This is what he told them Take nothing for your trip except a stick for walking Take no bread no bag and no money,Masivale k'andzu mbiri ela mavale sapata
You can wear sandals but dont take extra clothes,Hat'u mundihoambwa Karibuni h'aya kalani kahi za nyumba iyo hatha mundihouka kut'u kuko
When you enter a house stay there until you leave that town,Mwangiraho mudzini na o at'u masimwambe hatha Karibuni hedu kumusirikiza bai hat'u haho haukeni kidza mukut'e-kut'e vumbi ra maguluni mwenu kunyesa kukala go gandigoapata k'amumo na mandamanya enye
If any town refuses to accept you or refuses to listen to you then leave that town and shake the dust off your feetas a warning to them,Kwa vizho o anafundzi makiuka kwendahubiri na kuambira at'u mariche mahendo gao mai na mathubu
The apostles left and went to other places They talked to the people and told them to change their hearts and lives,Nao makwendamboza at'u p'ep'o anji na makiamwagira mafuha akongo anji na makiahoza
They forced many demons out of people and put olive oil onmany who were sick and healed them,Bai muthawali Herode akigasikira gosi gaga kwani dzina ra Jesu were ridzaenera kila hat'u hatha at'u angine were manaamba ni Johana Mubat'izaji wafufuka ndo hatha ana wadimi wa kuhenda maut'u mabomu-mabomu
King Herod heard about Jesus because Jesus was now famous Some people said He is John the Baptizer He must have risen from death and that is why he can do these miracles,Angine o makikala manaamba Ni Elija na angine makiamba Ni nabii dza here mumwenga wa o manabii a ho kapindi
Other people said He is Elijah,Ela Herode arihosikira vivi akiamba Iye ni Johana Mubat'izaji niriyemutosa kitswa wafufuka
Herod heard these things about Jesus He said I killed John by cutting off his head Now he has been raised from death,Kwani Herode were walagiza kukala Johana afungwe minyororo na angizwe jela Vivi wavihenda kwa ut'u wa Herodia mwanamuche ariyekala Herode wamuhoka nduguye ariyekala anaifwa Filipu
Herod himself had ordered his soldiers to arrest John and put him in prison Herod did this to please his wife Herodias She had been married to Herods brother Philip but then Herod married her,Kwani Johana Mubat'izaji wakala akimwambira Herode kukala Si hachi bule uwe kumuhala mukaza nduguyo
John told Herod It is not right for you to be married to your brothers wife,Vivi zhamuhendya Herodia akale na kitsukizi na akimala amwalage ela k'azhadimire bule
So Herodias hated John She wanted him dead but she was not able to persuade Herod to kill him,Kwani Herode wamwagoha Johana kwa kukala Johana were ni mut'u muhachi na mweri kwa vizho akimurinda Were kila arihomusirikiza anabudzyika moyo ela hatha hamwenga na vizho were anahendza kusirikiza mafundishoge
Herod was afraid to kill John because he knew that he was a good and holy man So he protected him He liked listening to John although what John said left him with so many questions,Mwishowe Herodia wapata mwanya wa kumwalaga Johana Herode waasunga asenae sherehe ya siku ya kukumbukira kuzhalwakwe Bai mut'u iye waalika at'u osi a zheo uthawalini abomu a majeshi na abomu a yo ts'i ya Galilaya
Then the right time came for Herodias to cause Johns death It happened on Herods birthday Herod gave a dinner party for the most important government leaders the commanders of his army and the most important people in Galilee,Ndo musichana wa Herodia akidzaavinira Bai wavinat'o zhomu hatha Herode na ajenie makifwahirwa K'uzhona zho muthawali Herode akimwamba ye musichana Nambira chochosi uhendzacho nami nindakup'a
The daughter of Herodias came to the party and danced When she danced Herod and the people eating with him were very pleased,Akimulahira akimwamba Chochosi undichomala nindakup'a hatha kala ni nusu ya uthawali wangu
He promised her Anything you ask for I will give to youeven half of my kingdom,Ndo ye musichana akiuka kwendamuza mameye Akiamba Nimale ut'u wani m'ama Ye mimut'u akimwamba Mala kitswa cha Johana Mubat'izaji
The girl went to her mother and asked What should I ask King Herod to give me,Ye musichana akiuya malo ko kwa muthawali achendamwamba Nahendza vivi kare unip'e kitswa cha Johana Mubat'izaji ndani za bunguu
So right then the girl went back in to the king She said to him Please give me the head of John the Baptizer Bring it to me now on a plate,Kudzasikira vivi Herode washononeka zhomu ela kwa were adzalaha mbere za ajeni kukala kila andichomalwa andalazha k'adimire kumukahaza bule
King Herod was very sad but he didnt want to break the promise he had made to her in front of his guests,Kwa vizho bai akilagiza shikari mara mwenga achenda ko jela akakirehe cho kitswa cha Johana Ye shikari achenda ko jela achendamutosa kitswa Johana
So he sent a soldier to cut off Johns head and bring it to him The soldier went and cut off Johns head in the prison,akidza nacho ndani za bunguu akidzamup'a ye musichana na ye musichana akikihala akimup'a ye mameye
He brought the head back on a plate and gave it to the girl and the girl gave it to her mother,Badaye anafundzi a Johana marihosikira gaga makidzamuhala machendamuzika
Johns followers heard about what happened so they came and got Johns body and put it in a tomb,Vikara o ahumwi a Jesu makiuya kula charo chao cha kuhubiri nao makidzamwambira viryahu marizhohubiri na marizhohenda
The apostles Jesus had sent out came back to him They gathered around him and told him about all they had done and taught,Kwa ut'u wa at'u anji ano manadza arya manauya Jesu na anafundzie k'amadimire kurya Bai Jesu akiambira o anafundzie Nahumbole-mbole vichache hedu fwende kut'u kwa h'akiyehu hukapate ngaa kudzioyeza
Jesus and his followers were in a very busy place There were so many people that he and his followers did not even have time to eat He said to them Come with me We will go to a quiet place to be alone There we will get some rest,Kwa vizho machangira dauni ao kare na makiuka kwenda hat'u ha h'akiyao kure na at'u
So Jesus and his followers went away alone They went in a boat to a place where no one lived,Ela hatha hamwenga na vizho at'u anji maaona marihokala makuukani na makiamanya Ndo makiuka malo kula midzi yosi kwenda ko arikokala Jesu na anafundzie manenda nao makifika na mbere
But many people saw them leave and knew who they were So people from every town ran to the place where they were going and got there before Jesus,K'uzhona Jesu arihothima kula mo dauni akirona ro kundi bomu ra at'u naye akiaonera mbazi kwa viryahu marizhokala ni here ng'ondzi zisizo na murisa Bai akikwatya kuafundisha maut'u manji
As Jesus stepped out of the boat he saw a large crowd waiting He felt sorry for them because they were like sheep without a shepherd to care for them So he taught the people many things,Mutsana urihokala udzaenderera zhomu nako kunenda kutswani o anafundzi makimwamba Jesu Hat'u haha be ni nyika zhomu nako kunatswa
It was now very late in the day Jesus followers came to him and said No one lives around here and it is already very late,Kwa vizho baha uafumule aa at'u mende kahi za midzi na minda iriyo hehi na haha makadzigulire ut'u wowosi wa kurya
So send the people away They need to go to the farms and towns around here to buy some food to eat,Naye Jesu arihombola kudzigidzya akiamba Ap'eni chakurya ninwi Ndo o anafundzie makimudzigidzya makimwamba Vidze unahendza hukagule mikahe ya kima cha dinari magana mairi at'u ano mathosheke kurya
But Jesus answered You give them some food to eat,Jesu akiauza akiamba Kwani vino muna mikahe mingahi Hedu kaloleni machendalola na marihogonya kulola makimwambira Ni mitsano na makumba mairi
Jesus asked them How many loaves of bread do you have now Go and see,Bai Jesu akiambira o anafundzie Ambireni o at'u madzigazhe vithundhu-vithundhu na makelesi ho nyasini
Then Jesus said to them Tell everyone to sit in groups on the green grass,Kwa vizho o at'u makikelesi vithundhu-vithundhu zha at'u gana-gana na zha at'u mirongo mitsano-mitsano
So all the people sat in groups There were about 50 or 100 people in each group,Gonya akihala yo mikahe mitsano na go makumba mairi akilola dzulu mulunguni akimboza muvera kwa Mulungu gonya akiimogola-mogola yo mikahe na akiap'a o anafundzie maagazhire o at'u na go makumba mairi
Jesus took the five loaves and two fish He looked up to the sky and thanked God for the food Then he broke the bread into pieces which he gave to his followers to distribute to the people Then he divided the two fish among everyone there,Nao osi makirya hatha makivilola
They all ate until they were full,Bai marihogonya kurya o anafundzi makitsola-tsola zho visiku-visiku zha mikahe na zha go makumba mairi virizhokala vidzasala na makidzaza k'ahu kumi na mbiri
After they finished eating the followers filled twelve baskets with the pieces of bread and fish that were left,Na isabu ya ao mariokala madzarya yo mikahe were ni at'u alifu ts'ano alume
There were about 5000 men there who ate,Bai o at'u marihogonya kurya thu Jesu waalagiza o anafundzie mangire dauni na mavuke mathangulie kwenda Beth'isaida kuno ye anaafumula o at'u
Then Jesus told the followers to get into the boat He told them to go to the other side of the lake to Bethsaida He said he would come later He stayed there to tell everyone they could go home,Arihogonya kulagana na o at'u wakwenda murimani kwendavoya
After he said goodbye to them he went up into the hills to pray,Dzulo ririhongira dau rere ri kahikahi ya ro ziya ela Jesu were achere ko ts'i furufu h'akeye
That night the boat was still in the middle of the lake Jesus was alone on the land,Arihokala a kuko akiaona o anafundzie manathabika kupiga makasia kwani lupeho lwere lunambola ko mendako Bai urihofika wakathi wa jogolo ra kwandza kuika akiambolera kuno ananenda dzulu za madzi Akidzihendesha here anaakira
He saw the boat far away on the lake And he saw the followers working hard to row the boat The wind was blowing against them Sometime between three and six oclock in the morning Jesus went out to the boat walking on the water He continued walking until he was almost past the boat,Ela o anafundzi marihomona ananenda dzulu ya madzi makiona ni p'ep'o be o makipiga k'ululu
But the followers saw Jesus walking on the water They thought he was a ghost and they started screaming,Kwani osi mamona na makihondoka Jesu akinena nao mara mwenga akiamba Sogoheni ndimi musihondoke
It scared them all to see him But he spoke to them and said Dont worry Its me Dont be afraid,Gonya achangira mo dauni na lo luvutho lukihurira hu O anafundzi makingalala kamare
When he got into the boat with the followers the wind stopped The followers were completely amazed,kwa kukala hatha bada ya kuona wo muujiza wa mikahe kidza were k'amadzangwe kung'alirwat'o bule kwani zo akili zao zere zidzaziywa
They could not believe what happened It was like the miracle he did with the bread They still didnt understand what that meant,Bai Jesu na anafundzie makivuka ro ziya na makifika ts'i ya Genezarethi makirifunga kuko ro dau
Jesus and his followers went across the lake and came to shore at Gennesaret They tied the boat there,Marihokala manathima mo dauni at'u makimumanya kare ye Jesu
When they were out of the boat the people there saw Jesus They knew who he was,Makiuka malo kuvisema kila hat'u makikwatya kumuhirikira akongo mariokala madzaatsukula na vitanda kila marihosikira a haho
so they ran to tell others throughout that area They brought sick people on mats to every place Jesus went,Naye Jesu wangira kila hat'u kula vidzidzini midzini mindani na masokoni na at'u makimurehera akongo makimuvoya magut'e hatha chamba ni ro pindo ra ro valore na osi mariorigut'a mahola
Jesus went into towns cities and farms around that area And every place he went the people brought sick people to the marketplaces They begged him to let them touch any part of his coat And all those who touched him were healed,Siku mwenga Mafarisayo na alimu a Sheria mariokala madzambola Jerusalemu makundzumanyikana mbere za Jesu
Some Pharisees and some teachers of the law came from Jerusalem and gathered around Jesus,Makiaona anafundzi angine a Jesu manarya chakurya hasiho kuoga mikono here malagizo ga akare ao gaambazho
They saw that some of his followers ate food with hands that were not clean meaning that they did not wash their hands in a special way,Ndo virizho na Mafarisayo na Ayahudi osi ao managwira mafundisho ga akare ao Lola k'amadima kurya hasiho kuoga mikono yao karakara na malagizo gaga
The Pharisees and all the other Jews never eat before washing their hands in this special way They do this to follow the traditions they have from their great leaders who lived long ago,Kidza makidza kula sokoni k'amadima kurya kit'u muhaka maoge mikono kwandza Pia were makigathuwa malagizo mangine manji marigogahokera dza here ngira ya karakara ya kugesa vikombe nyungu na mabunguu ga ng'andu
And when these Jews buy something in the market they never eat it until they wash it in a special way They also follow other rules from their people who lived before them They follow rules like the washing of cups pitchers and pots,Kuona gago marigokala o anafundzi a Jesu managahenda o Mafarisayo na alimu a Sheria makimuza Jesu makiamba Mbona ano anafundzio k'amarigwira ro adha ra kuoga mikono hurirorichirwa ni akare ehu Manarya na mikono michafu
The Pharisees and teachers of the law said to Jesus Your followers dont follow the traditions we have from our great leaders who lived long ago They eat their food with hands that are not clean Why do they do this,Jesu akiamba Nabii Isaya wanenat'o sana dzulu zenu ninwi at'u a kudzihendya kwani Maoro ganaamba
Jesus answered You are all hypocrites Isaiah was right when he wrote these words from God about you,Hatha makanivoya ni bule
Their worship of me is worthless,Mudzagaika k'anda malagizo ga Mulungu na hat'u ha vizho munathuwa mafundisho ga at'u
You have stopped following Gods commands preferring instead the manmade rules you got from others,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Muna ulachu wa kukahalira malagizo ga Mulungu kwamba muthuwe maadha genu
Then he said You show great skill in avoiding the commands of God so that you can follow your own teachings,Kwani Musa waamba Muishimu babayo na mameyo Kidza akiamba Ye andemuhukana babaye hedu mameye kumala kwalagwa naalagwe
Moses said You must respect your father and motherHe also said Whoever says anything bad to their father or mother must be killed,Ela ninwi munafundisha kwamba mut'u akikala ana kit'u cha kuakola babaye na mameye ela akiamba Koribani ambazho manaye ni kuamba Cho niricho nikamup'a dzachamboza sadaka kwa Mulungu
But you teach that people can say to their father or mother I have something I could use to help you but I will not use it for you I will give it to God,ni kukala ana chausa cha kuthosha cha kutsamwaviza babaye na mameye
You are telling people that they do not have to do anything for their father or mother,Nanwi kwa ngira ii munarihenda neno ra Mulungu kutsakala na nguvu kwa go muafundishago andziyenu na kuna manji mangine muhendago gadzigohalana na gaga
So you are teaching that it is not important to do what God said You think it is more important to follow those traditions you have which you pass on to others And you do many things like that,Gonya Jesu akiriha ro kundi ra at'u kaheri akiambira Nisirikizani nyosi na mung'alirwe
Jesus called the people to him again He said Everyone should listen to me and understand what I am saying,K'akuna mut'u adimaye kuhendywa mukolo ni chakurya Ela kidimacho kumuhendya mut'u kukala mukolo ni cho chambolacho mo moyoni mwa ye mut'u
There is nothing people can put in their mouth that will make them wrongPeople are made wrong by what comes from inside them,Mut'u mwenye masikiro naasikire
Then Jesus left the people and went into the house The followers asked Jesus about what he had told the people,Badaye Jesu arihokala adzaashalahukira o at'u wakwenda kahi za nyumba bai anafundzie makimuza dzulu za fumbo riri
He said Do you still have trouble understanding Surely you know that nothing that enters the mouth from the outside can make people unacceptable to God,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Hatha ninwi nanwi k'amung'alirwa bule Chakurya k'akidima kumuhendya mut'u akale mukolo
Food does not go into a persons mind It goes into the stomach Then it goes out of the body When Jesus said this he meant there is no food that is wrong for people to eat,kwa kukala k'achenda mo moyoni ela kinenda mo ndanini na gonya endaho chandze cho adzichorya ni kwambola Kwa kunena vivi Jesu were ana mana kukala zhakurya zhosi ni visafi
And Jesus said The things that make people wrong are the things that come from the inside,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Cho chambolacho mo moyoni mwa ye mut'u ndo kimuhendyacho mut'u kukala mukolo
All these bad things begin inside a person in the mind bad thoughts sexual sins stealing murder,kwa kukala kula mumo moyoni ni kumbola maazo mai gamuhendyago kuhenda maut'u gasigovirya ambago ni kuiya kwalaga
adultery greed doing bad things to people lying doing things that are morally wrong jealousy insulting people proud talking and foolish living,kuzinga kutona kila maazo mai kukenga kutsowa lau kidzitso kuhukana kudzionya na uzuzu
These evil things come from inside a person And these are the things that make people unacceptable to God,Gaga maut'u mai gosi ni kumbola kula moyoni mwa mut'u na ndo gadimago kumuhendya mukolo
Jesus went from there to the area around Tyre He did not want the people in that area to know he was there so he went into a house But he could not stay hidden,Gonya Jesu akiuka ko Galilaya na achenda hatha sehemu za midzi ya Tiro na Sidoni Kuko achangira kahi za nyumba mwenga naye were k'endzi mut'u yoyosi amanye kukala a haho Ela k'avidimikikire kwani uvoro wa kudzakwe wavuma kare kila hat'u
A woman heard that he was there Her little daughter had an evil spirit inside her So the woman came to Jesus and bowed down near his feet,Vikara kwere kuna mwanamuche mumwenga ariye were ana mwanawe wa kiche ana p'ep'o K'uzhona zho arihosikira kukala Jesu adzire hat'u haho wakwenda na achendadzigwaga mbereze
She was not a Jew She was born in Phoenicia an area in Syria She begged Jesus to force the demon out of her daughter,Naye ye mwanamuche were si Muyahudi ela were wazhalwa ts'i ya Asirofonike K'uzhona zho akimuririra Jesu kwamba apate kumwamboza ye p'ep'o ariyekala a ndani za ye musichanawe
Jesus told the woman It is not right to take the childrens bread and give it to the dogs First let the children eat all they want,Ela Jesu akimudzigidzya ye mwanamuche akiamba Richa o ahoho makuhe kwandza kwa kukala si karakara kuhala chakurya cha ahoho na kukitsuhira k'uro
She answered That is true Lord But the dogs under the table can eat the pieces of food that the children dont eat,Naye mwanamuche akimwambira Jesu U mujeri we ela hatha o k'uro ni kurya go magande ga cho chakurya cha ahoho gagwago ho ts'i
Then he told her That is a very good answer You may go The demon has left your daughter,Jesu akimudzigidzya akiamba Kwa vizho udzizhonena unadima kwenda mudzini ye p'ep'o adzamwambola ye mwanao
The woman went home and found her daughter lying on the bed The demon was gone,Bai ye mwanamuche achenda ko mudzini kwakwe naye achendamuthekeza ye muhoho ahembelele kitandani na ye p'ep'o akikala adzamwambola
Then Jesus left the area around Tyre and went through Sidon On his way to Lake Galilee he went through the area of the Ten Towns,Badaye Jesu akiuka kula ko sehemu za midzi ya Tiro na Sidoni akikira na upande wa ziya ra Galilaya hatha achangira jimbo ra Midzi Kumi
While he was there some people brought a man to him who was deaf and could not talk clearly The people begged Jesus to put his hand on the man to heal him,Bai at'u fulani makimurehera Jesu mut'u ariye were ni gwigwi kidza were masikiroge ni makoto O at'u makimubembeleza Jesu kwamba amuikire mukono ahole
Jesus led the man away from the people to be alone with him He put his fingers in the mans ears Then he spit on a finger and put it on the mans tongue,K'uzhona zho Jesu akimuvuha k'anda ye mut'u kure na o at'u anji achangiza mala mo masikironi mwa ye mut'u gonya akitsuha mahe mo malani mwakwe na akimugut'a lo ludhimi
Jesus looked up to the sky and with a loud sigh he said,Gonya Jesu akilola dzulu mulunguni na akisohera dzulu akiamba Efatha ambazho manaye ni kuamba Vuguka
As soon as Jesus did this the man was able to hear He was able to use his tongue and he began to speak clearly,Haho henye ye mut'u masikiroge gakivuguka na kidza ludhimilwe lukirichizwa na akinena t'ot'ot'o
Jesus told the people not to tell anyone about this But the more he told them not to say anything the more people they told,Jesu akiakokot'era o at'u kukala masimwambire mut'u go adzigogahenda ela kila arihoakokot'era makikaza kuvitsamula kila hat'u
They were all completely amazed They said Look at what he has done Its all good He makes deaf people able to hear and gives a new voice to people who could not talk,Na lola o at'u mangalala kamare na makiamba Mut'u yuyu kila ahendaro ni ridzo hatha anahenda magwigwi ganene na enye makoto mavuguke masikiro kamare
Another time there were many people with Jesus The people had nothing to eat So he called his followers to him and said,Siku mwenga ngororoki bomu ya at'u yakundzumanyika na kwa kukala were k'amana ut'u wowosi wa kurya Jesu waaiha hamwenga o anafundzie na akiambira
I feel sorry for these people They have been with me for three days and now they have nothing to eat,At'u aa be mananishononesa zhomu Hangu makale nami haha rero ni hahu na vivi k'amana ut'u wowosi wa kurya
I should not send them home hungry If they leave without eating they will faint on the way home Some of them live a long way from here,Nikiamba ninaafumula mende kwao midzini bila kuap'a kit'u marye mandagwa na mutsare mo ngirani kwani angine ao madzalaa kure
Jesus followers answered But we are far away from any towns Where can we get enough bread to feed all these people,Ndo anafundzie makimudzigidzya makiamba Mut'u anadima kuarisadze at'u ano hano nyika
Then Jesus asked them How many loaves of bread do you have,Ndo Jesu akiauza akiamba Kwani muna mikahe mingahi Makiamba Mifungahe
Jesus told the people to sit on the ground Then he took the seven loaves and gave thanks to God He broke the bread into pieces and gave them to his followers He told them to give the bread to the people and they did as he said,Bai Jesu akiambira o at'u makelesi ho ts'i Gonya akiihala yo mikahe mifungahe akilazha muvera kwa Mulungu na akiimogola-mogola akiap'a o anafundzie maagazhire o at'u na o anafundzie makihenda vizho zhenye
The followers also had a few small fish Jesus gave thanks for the fish and told them to give the fish to the people,Kidza were mana vikumba vichache vizho nazho Jesu akivihala akimboza muvera kwa Mulungu na gonya akiap'a o anafundzi kwamba mavigazhizhe at'u nazho
They all ate until they were full Then the followers filled seven baskets with the pieces of food that were left,Na lola o at'u marya hatha makivilola kidza o anafundzi makidzaza k'ahu fungahe za visiku-visiku virizhokala vidzasala
There were about 4000 men who ate After they ate Jesus told them to go home,Naho were hana at'u mafikao alifu ne
Then he went in a boat with his followers to the area of Dalmanutha,Bai Jesu akiafumula gonya achangira dauni mara mwenga hamwenga na o anafundzie machenda ts'i ya Dalimanuth'a
The Pharisees came to Jesus and asked him questions They wanted to test him So they asked him to do a miracle as a sign from God,Bai arihokala kuko Mafarisayo mamuthuwa makikwatya kupigana k'anani naye Na kidza were manamala kumujeza kwa vizho makimwamba Jesu aahendere muujiza wa kula mulunguni
Jesus sighed deeply and said Why do you people ask to see a miracle as a sign I want you to know that no miracle will be done to prove anything to you,Jesu akishononeka moyoni akiamba Mbona kizhazi kinamala kuhenderwa miujiza Namwambira jeri wenye kukala k'akindanyeswa muujiza wowosi
Then Jesus left them and went in the boat to the other side of the lake,Bai Jesu akiahaukira o Mafarisayo achangira dauni na achenda nyangamo nyingine ya ro ziya
The followers had only one loaf of bread with them in the boat They forgot to bring more bread,O anafundzi a Jesu mere madzasahau kutsukula mikahe ya kuthosha mere mana mukahe mumwenga thu mo dauni
Jesus warned them Be careful Guard against the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod,Jesu akiaonya o anafundzie akiamba Dzichungeni sana Dzimanyirireni na ts'ats'u ya Mafarisayo na ya Herode
The followers discussed the meaning of this They said He said this because we have no bread,K'uzhona bai o anafundzie makikwatya kuuzana-uzana makiamba Yuyu anaamba vivi kwa kukala k'ahuna mikahe
Jesus knew that the followers were talking about this So he asked them Why are you talking about having no bread Do you still not see or understand Are you not able to understand,Jesu akikala anamanya zho marizhokala mananena kwa vizho akiauza akiamba Kwanoni munauzana-uzana dzulu za kukosa mikahe Vidze muchere k'amuona kidza k'amudzang'alirwa Hedu muna mioyo miomu
Do you have eyes that cant see Do you have ears that cant hear Remember what I did before when we did not have enough bread,Muna matso ela k'amuona Muna masikiro ela k'amusikira Kidza k'amukumbukira bule
I divided five loaves of bread for 5000 people Remember how many baskets you filled with pieces of food that were not eaten,Nirihoimogola yo mikahe mitsano na kuarisa at'u alifu ts'ano vidze ni k'ahu nyingahi za masaza murizodzaza O anafundzi makiamba Kumi na mbiri
And when I divided seven loaves of bread for 4000 people how many baskets did you fill with the leftover pieces,Jesu akienderera kuauza akiamba H'e zho nirizhoarisa at'u alifu ne na mikahe mifungahe ni k'ahu nyingahi za masaza murizodzaza O anafundzie makiamba Fungahe
Then he said to them You remember these things I did but you still dont understand,Jesu akiamba Vidze muchere k'amudzang'alirwa
Jesus and his followers came to Bethsaida Some people brought a blind man to him and begged him to touch the man,Bai machenda hatha makifika Beth'isaida na kuko at'u makimurehera Jesu mut'u ariyekala ni kipofu na makimungolangola Jesu amugut'e ye kipofu kwamba ahole
So Jesus held the blind mans hand and led him out of the village Then he spit on the mans eyes He laid his hands on him and asked Can you see now,Ndo Jesu akimugwira mukono ye kipofu na achenda naye ndze ya ko kadzidzi Akimutsuhira mahe mo matsoni gonya akimuikira mikono na akimuza akiamba Vidze vino unaona
The man looked up and said Yes I see people They look like trees walking around,Ye mut'u akinula kitswa vichache akilola naye akimwambira Jesu Ee naona at'u manenda ela ni here mihi
Again Jesus laid his hands on the mans eyes and the man opened them wide His eyes were healed and he was able to see everything clearly,Jesu arihosikira vivi akimwikira mikono kaheri mo matsoni mwakwe na ariholola kaheri nguvu za matsoge zikimuuyira naye akikwatya kuona kila kit'u t'ot'ot'o
Jesus told him to go home He said Dont go into the town,Jesu akimukokot'era ye mut'u akiamba Enda mudzini kwako na siuye na mo kadzidzini
Jesus and his followers went to the towns in the area of Caesarea Philippi While they were traveling Jesus asked the followers Who do people say I am,Badaye Jesu na o anafundzie machambola kwenda zho vidzidzi zha jimbo ra Kaisaria Filipi Bai mo ngirani Jesu akiauza o anafundzie akiamba Vidze at'u manaamba mino ni h'ani
They answered Some people say you are John the Baptizer Others say you are Elijah And others say you are one of the prophets,Makimudzigidzya makiamba Angine manaamba u Johana Mubat'izaji na angine manaamba u Elija kidza angine manaamba kukala u mumwenga kahi za o manabii
Then Jesus asked Who do you say I am,Naye akiuza akiamba Vidze nwi munaamba mino ni h'ani P'et'ero akimudzigidzya akiamba Uwe ndiwe ye Masihi
Jesus told the followers Dont tell anyone who I am,Jesu akiakokot'era akiambira masimwambire mut'u yoyosi dzuluze
Then Jesus began to teach his followers that the Son of Man must suffer many things He taught that the Son of Man would not be accepted by the older Jewish leaders the leading priests and the teachers of the law He said that the Son of Man must be killed and then rise from death after three days,Ndo Jesu akikwatya kuafundisha anafundzie akiamba Mwana wa Mudamu lazima ateswe sana na akahalwe ni athumia na alombi abomu na alimu a Sheria na andalagwa ela bada ya siku t'ahu andafufuka
Jesus told them everything that would happen He did not keep anything secret,Jesu waganena maut'u gaga lwazu-lwazu Bai P'et'ero akimuvuha k'anda akimuchemera
But Jesus turned and looked at his followers Then he criticized Peter He said to Peter Get away from me Satan You dont care about the same things God does You care only about things that people think are important,Ela Jesu akihunduka kulola wo upande mariko o anafundzie na akimuchemera P'et'ero akimwamba Hauke Shethani Maazogo k'agambola kwa Mulungu ela ni ga kibinadamu
Then Jesus called the crowd and his followers to him He said Any of you who want to be my follower must stop thinking about yourself and what you want You must be willing to carry the cross that is given to you for following me,Gonya Jesu akiambira o anafundzie hamwenga na wo muthunganano wa at'u madze hehi naye Gonya akiamba Mut'u akihendza kunithuwa mimi suthi adzikane mwenye na adzihike musalabawe anithuwe
Any of you who try to save the life you have will lose it But you who give up your life for me and for the Good News will save it,Mana kila amalaye kuthizha rohoye andayangamiza ela kila andiyeyangamiza rohoye kwa ut'u wangu na kwa ut'u wa wo Uvoro Udzo wa Mulungu iye andaithizha
It is worth nothing for you to have the whole world if you yourself are lost,Kwani vindamufwahani mut'u akipata vit'u zhosi zha urumwengu gonya rohoye yangamike
You could never pay enough to buy back your life,Hedu mut'u anadima kugula rohoye
People today are so sinful They have not been faithful to God As you live among them dont be ashamed of me and my teaching If that happens Iwill be ashamed of you when I come with the glory of my Father and the holy angels,Kwani mut'u anioneraye haya hamwenga na gaga mafundisho gangu kahi za kizhazi kiki cha dambi kisichokuluhira Mwana wa Mudamu naye andamuonera haya siku iyo andihokudza kahi za nguma ya Babaye hamwenga na malaika aeri
Then Jesus said Believe me when I say that some of you people standing here will see Gods kingdom come with power before you die,Gonya Jesu akiamba Ninamwambira ujeri haha hana at'u mario k'amandafwa hatha mawone uthawali wa Mulungu udzire na nguvu
Six days later Jesus took Peter James and John and went up on a high mountain They were all alone there While these followers watched him Jesus was changed,Bada ya siku t'andahu Jesu wamuhala P'et'ero Jakobu na Johana machendakwera dzulu za murima mure makikala kuko h'akiyao Vikara marihokala ma kuko ye Jesu akigaluka sura kuno manalolera
His clothes became shining whitewhiter than anyone on earth could make them,Nguwoze zakala nyaruhe zhomu kidza were zinang'ala-ng'ala hatha k'akuna mufuli yoyosi haha dhuniani adimaye kuzifula dza vizho
Then two men were there talking with Jesus They were Elijah and Moses,Gonya Elija na Musa makiambolera na makikala mananena na Jesu
Peter said to Jesus Teacher it is good that we are here We will put three tents hereone for you one for Moses and one for Elijah,P'et'ero akimwambira Jesu Mwalimu ni vidzo zho zha fu haha Nahuake vibanda vihahu kimwenga cha kwako kimwenga cha Musa na kimwenga cha Elija
Peter did not know what to say because he and the other two followers were so afraid,P'et'ero were tha k'amanya aneneni kwa wo woga ariokala nao iye na o andziye
Then a cloud came and covered them A voice came from the cloud and said This is my Son the one I love Obey him,Gonya kukidza ingu rikidzaafinikira na sauthi ichambola mo inguni ikiamba Yuyu ni Mwanangu muhendzwi musirikizeni iye
The followers looked but they saw only Jesus there alone with them,Haho kwa haho P'et'ero Jakobu na Johana makitsuha matso kuku na kuku ela k'amaonere mut'u mungine hamwenga nao isihokala Jesu h'akeye
As Jesus and the followers were walking back down the mountain he gave them these instructions Dont tell anyone about what you saw on the mountain Wait until after the Son of Man rises from death Then you can tell people what you saw,Badaye marihokala manatharamuka kula ko dzulu ya wo murima Jesu akiakokot'era p'ore makambira mut'u go madzigogaona muhaka ho Mwana wa Mudamu andihofufuka
So the followers waited to say anything about what they saw But they discussed among themselves what Jesus meant about rising from death,Kwa vizho o anafundzie ahahu makisikira zho arizhoakokot'era ye Jesu ela ko o enye na enye makiuzana-uzana Kufufuka kula kifwani manaye ni noni
They asked him Why do the teachers of the law say that Elijah must comefirst,Bai kahi za vizho o anafundzi makimuza Jesu makiamba Mbona alimu a Sheria manaamba ni lazima Elija adze kwandza
Jesus answered They are right to say that Elijah must come first Elijah makes all things the way they should be But why do the Scriptures say that the Son of Man will suffer much and that people will think he is worth nothing,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Ni jeri Elija ni lazima athangulie kuthayarisha kila kit'u kwandza ela hatha vizho zhaorwa kwamba ye Mwana wa Mudamu andapata mashaka na kukahalwa
I tell you that Elijah has already come And people did to him all the bad things they wanted to do The Scriptures said this would happen to him,Ela namwambira bai kukala Elija wakudza kare na o at'u makimuhenda kila marichoona ni karakara dza here Maoro garizhonena dzuluze
Then Jesus Peter James and John went to the other followers They saw many people around them The teachers of the law were arguing with the followers,Badaye Jesu na o anafundzie ahahu marihoauyira o anafundzi angine makiona kundi ra at'u na alimu a Sheria were manapigana k'anani na o anafundzi
When the people saw Jesus they were very surprised and ran to welcome him,O at'u kumona Jesu akudzani thu machangalala zhomu makikot'a malo machendamulamusa
Jesus asked What are you arguing about with the teachers of the law,Jesu akiauza Ni ut'u wani udziwomuhendya hatha munapigana k'anani
A man answered Teacher I brought my son to you He is controlled by an evil spirit that keeps him from talking,Ndo mwanamulume mumwenga ariyekala a kahi za ro kundi ra o at'u achambola kumudzigidzya Jesu akiamba Mwalimu mut'u mimi dzamureha mwanangu kwako kwa kukala k'adima kunena ana p'ep'o bwibwi
The spirit attacks him and throws him on the ground He foams at the mouth grinds his teeth and becomes very stiff I asked your followers to force the evil spirit out but they could not,Kila amugwagaho ni kumuhendya akambola fulo ra kanwani akaluma meno na kidza akaumalala Dzaambira aa anafundzio mamwamboze ye p'ep'o ela k'amazhadimire
Jesus answered You people today dont believe How long must I stay with you How long must I be patient with you Bring the boy to me,Kusikira vizho Jesu akiahundukira o anafundzie akiamba H'enwi at'u musio na kuluhiro Nindakala nanwi hatha rini Nindamuvumirira hatha rini Mureheni kuno ye muhoho
So the followers brought the boy to Jesus When the evil spirit saw Jesus it attacked the boy The boy fell down and rolled on the ground He was foaming at the mouth,Bai makimureha ye muhoho kwa Jesu Lola ye p'ep'o arihomona Jesu thu akimugwaga ye muhoho kuno anagalagala na kumbola fulo ra kanwani
Jesus asked the boys father How long has this been happening to him,Jesu akimuza ye bimut'u akiamba Zhamuandza rini vino Ye babaye ye muhoho akidzigidzya akiamba Ni kula uhohowe
The spirit often throws him into a fire or into water to kill him If you can do anything please have pity on us and help us,K'ana nyinji ye p'ep'o adzajeza kumwalaga kwa kumutsuha mohoni hedu madzini Fuonere mbazi ufwavize chamba undazhadima
Jesus said to the father Why did you say if you can All things are possible for the one who believes,Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Ati chamba ndazhadima Gosi ganadimikika kwa ye akuluhiraye
Immediately the father shouted I do believe Help me to believe more,Bai ye babaye ye muhoho akiluta mumiro akiamba Ninakuluhira ela naviza kutsakuluhira kwangu
Jesus saw that all the people were running there to see what was happening So he spoke to the evil spirit He said You evil spirit that makes this boy deaf and stops him from talkingI command you to come out of him and never enter him again,Jesu arihoona at'u anji manadza akimuchemera ye p'ep'o akimwamba We p'ep'o gwigwi na makoto h'aya mwambole kare ye muhoho na usimwangire kaheri
The evil spirit screamed It caused the boy to fall on the ground again and then it came out The boy looked as if he was dead Many people said He is dead,Ye p'ep'o akipiga luchemi zhomu akimupiga na ts'i ye muhoho ndo akimwambola Naye wakala ni here adziyefwa ye muhoho O at'u kuona vizho makikwatya kuamba Adzafwa benwi
But Jesus took hold of his hand and helped him stand up,Ela Jesu akigoloza mukono akimugwira ye muhoho na akimurungaraza
Then Jesus went into the house His followers were alone with him there They said Why werent we able to force that evil spirit out,Badaye Jesu arihokala adzangira nyumbani na o anafundzie o anafundzie mamuza kinjama makiamba Kwanoni sino k'ahudimire kumwamboza ye p'ep'o
Jesus answered That kind of spirit can be forced out only with prayer,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba K'akuna mut'u adimaye kumwamboza p'ep'o dza yuyu hasiho kuvoya
Then Jesus and his followers left there and went through Galilee Jesus did not want the people to know where they were,Machambola kuko makikira kahikahi ya Galilaya Naye k'ahendzeze mut'u yoyosi amanye ko ariko
He wanted to teach his followers alone He said to them The Son of Man will be handed over to the control of other men who will kill him After three days he will rise from death,kwa kukala were anaafundisha anafundzie Were anaamba Mwana wa Mudamu andalazhwa kwa at'u nao mandamwalaga Bai achalagwa andafufuka bada ya siku t'ahu
But the followers did not understand what he meant and they were afraid to ask him,Ela o anafundzie k'amang'alirirwe ni gago arigokala Jesu anaambira kidza makikala aoga na kumuza
Jesus and his followers went to Capernaum They went into a house and Jesus said to them I heard you arguing on the way here today What were you arguing about,Bai machenda hatha makifika Kaperinaumu na marihokala madzangira nyumbani Jesu waauza o anafundzie akiamba Kurya ngirani mudzakala munapigana k'anani za noni
But the followers did not answer because their argument on the road was about which one of them was the greatest,O anafundzie makimunyamalira zii kwa kukala mo ngirani mosi were madzapigana k'anani za mubomu ni h'ani kahi zao
Jesus sat down and called the twelve apostles to him He said Whoever wants to be the most important must make others more important than themselves They must serve everyone else,Vikara arihokala akeresi Jesu waaiha o anafundzie kumi na airi akiambira Kila ahendzaye akale wa kwandza suthi adziike wa mwisho na akale muhumiki wa osi
Then Jesus took a small child and stood the child in front of the followers He held the child in his arms and said,Gonya akimuhala muhoho muthithe akimwika kahikahi yao na akiamba
Whoever accepts children like these in my name is accepting me And anyone who accepts me is also accepting the one who sent me,Kila amuhokeraye muhoho muthithe dza yuyu kwa dzina rangu ananihokera mimi na ye anihokeraye mimi k'anihokera mimi bule ela anamuhokera iye ariyenihuma
Then John said Teacher we saw a man using your name to force demons out of someone He is not one of us So we told him to stop because he does not belong to our group,Kusikira vizho Johana ariye ni mumwenga wa o anafundzi akiamba Mwalimu fwaona mut'u anamboza p'ep'o kwa dzinaro naswi hukimukahaza kwa kukala si mumwenga wehu
Jesus said Dont stop him Whoever uses my name to do powerful things will not soon say bad things about me,Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Musimukahaze kwani k'ahana ahendaye miujiza kwa dzina rangu gonya ko akanena mai dzulu zangu
Whoever is not against us is with us,mana mut'u ariye k'akinyume chehu ni wehu
I can assure you that anyone who helps you by giving you a drink of water because you belong to the Messiah will definitely get a reward,Manyani vivi kila andemup'a kikombe cha madzi kwa kukala mu at'u a Masihi mut'u iye k'andakosa zawadiye
If one of these little children believes in me and someone causes that child to sin it will be very bad for that person It would be better for them to have a millstone tied around their neck and be drowned in the sea,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Ela mut'u yoyosi andiyemuhendya mumwenga wa aa athithe manikuluhirao ahende dambi ni baha afungwe lwalwa lwa singo atsufwe baharini
If your hand makes you sin cut it off It is better for you to lose part of your body and have eternal life than to have two hands and go to hell There the fire never stops,Na mukonowo ukikuhendya uhende dambi utose Kwani ni baha wangire uzimani na mukono mumwenga kuriko kwenda na mikono yosi miri ko Jehanamu kuriko mohowe k'auzima hatha kare na kare
The worms that eat the people in hell never die The fire there is never stopped,murimo muna mabulu gasofwa na moho usiwozima
Everyone will be salted with fire,Kwani kila mut'u andahendywa mueri kukirira na moho
Salt is good But if it loses its salty taste you cant make it good again So dont lose that good quality of salt you have And live in peace with each other,Munyu ni mudzo ela chamba k'aukoza kaheri k'ahana ngira idimayo kuuhendya ukakoza Kalani na munyu ndani mwenu na muishi na dheri na at'u angine
Jesus and his followers were coming closer to Jerusalem They came to the towns of Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives There Jesus sent two of his followers to do something,Na marihokala hehi na Jerusalemu makiona kwa kure Beth'ifage na Beth'ania kahi za Murima wa Mizeituni ndo akiahuma anafundzie airi
He said to them Go to the town you can see there When you enter it you will find a young donkey that no one has ever ridden Untie it and bring it here to me,akiambira Endani hatha mwangire ko kadzidzi mudzikoerekezana nako Mukikala munangira thu mundaona mwana wa ndzowe ariye k'adzapandwa ni mut'u adzafungwa Muvuguleni mumurehe
If anyone asks you why you are taking the donkey tell them The Master needs it He will send it back soon,Mut'u yoyosi akimuza Kwanoni munahendazho mwambeni Bwana ana haja naye na andamudzya kare
The followers went into the town They found a young donkey tied in the street near the door of a house and they untied it,Kwa vizho machenda na machendaona mwana wa ndzowe adzafungwa ndze ya mulomo wa nyumba ho ngirani Makimuvugula
Some people were standing there and saw this They asked What are you doing Why are you untying that donkey,O at'u mariokala haho makiauza makiamba Mbona munamuvugula ye mwana wa ndzowe kaheri
The followers answered the way Jesus told them and the people let them take the donkey,O anafundzie makiambira zho arizhokala adzaalagiza Jesu na o at'u makiarichira machenda
The followers brought the donkey to Jesus They put their coats on it and Jesus sat on it,Bai machenda naye ye mwana wa ndzowe hatha kwa Jesu makihandika maamba gao mongoni mwakwe na Jesu akikelesi dzuluze
Many people spread their coats on the road for Jesus Others cut branches in the fields and spread the branches on the road,At'u anji makihandika maamba gao mo ngirani angine o makitandaza vivungo marizhovitosa mo mindani
Some of them were walking ahead of Jesus Others were walking behind him Everyone shouted,Na at'u mariokala ma mbere na ao mariokala nyuma zao mapiga k'ululu makiamba
God bless the kingdom of our father David,Nauhaswe wo uthawali udzawo wa mukare wehu Daudi
Jesus entered Jerusalem and went to the Temple He looked at everything in the Temple area but it was already late So he went to Bethany with the twelve apostles,Bai Jesu achangira Jerusalemu na achenda kahi za ro Hekalu akimulolat'o sana mo ndani ela kwa kukala dzuwa were rinenda kutswani akihambola haho na achenda Beth'ania hamwenga na o anafundzie kumi na airi
The next day Jesus was leaving Bethany He was hungry,Siku ya hiriye marihokala madzaombola Beth'ania Jesu akisikira ndzala mo ngirani
He saw a fig tree with leaves So he went to the tree to see if it had any figs growing on it But he found no figs on the tree There were only leaves because it was not the right time for figs to grow,Kwa kure akiona mutini uriwokala u gi makodza Bai achendalola chamba andapata matunda Ela arihoufikira akiwona u gi makodza mahuhu kwani gere si makathige ga kuzhala matunda
So Jesus said to the tree People will never eat fruit from you again His followers heard him say this,Jesu akiulani wo muhi akiamba K'undazhala matunda kaheri Na o anafundzie makisikira zho arizhonena
Jesus went to Jerusalem and entered the Temple area He began driving out the people who were buying and selling things there He turned over the tables that belonged to those who were exchanging different kinds of money And he turned over the benches of those who were selling doves,Marihofika Jerusalemu Jesu achangira ndani za ro Hekalu akikwatya kuainga aryahu mariokala makiguza na kugula muryahu Hekaluni Kidza akihala zo meza za abandi a p'esa na vihi zha aguzi a magiya akivipetula-petula zhosi
He refused to allow anyone to carry things through the Temple area,k'amuruhusire mut'u hatha mumwenga kutsukula kit'u chochosi kukirira wo muhala wa ro Hekalu
Then Jesus began teaching the people and said It is written in the Scriptures My Temple will be called a house of prayer for all nationsBut you have changed it into a hiding place for thieves,Gonya akikwatya kuafundisha akiamba Zhaorwa kukala Nyumba yangu indaifwa nyumba ya mavoyo kwa at'u osi Ela ninwi mudzaihendya p'anga ya kuzama aivi
When the leading priests and the teachers of the law heard what Jesus said they began trying to find a way to kill him They were afraid of him because all the people were amazed at his teaching,Bai o alombi abomu na alimu a Sheria makivisikira na makikwatya kumala ngira ya kumwalagira kwani mamwagoha kwa kukala kundi rosi ra at'u rere rinangalazwa ni mafundishoge
That night Jesus and his followers left the city,Kurihokala kunatswa Jesu na anafundzie makiwombola wo mudzi wa Jerusalemu
The next morning Jesus was walking with his followers They saw the fig tree that he spoke to the day before The tree was dry and dead even the roots,Madzach'age marihokala manakira ngira iryahu ya dzana makiwona uryahu mutini nao were udzanyala kula ko kirereni hatha ko koloni
Peter remembered the tree and said to Jesus Teacher look Yesterday you told that fig tree to die Now it is dry and dead,Kuona vivi P'et'ero akikumbukira na akimwambira Jesu Mwalimu lola bewe wo mutini uriwoulani udzanyala
Jesus answered Have faith in God,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Kalani na kuluhiro kwa Mulungu
The truth is you can say to this mountain Go mountain fall into the sea And if you have no doubts in your mind and believe that what you say will happen then God will do it for you,Namwambira ujeri mut'u andewambira murima uu Ng'oka na ukagwe baharini na kala k'andaamba Ela vindakala moyoni mwakwe ela akuluhire kukala zho adzizhoamba vindakala be andahenderwa jeri
So I tell you to ask for what you want in prayer And if you believe that you have received those things then they will be yours,Kwa vizho namwambira kila mundichokivoya kuluhirani kukala mudzakihokera nanwi mundakipata
When you are praying and you remember that you are angry with another person about something forgive that person Forgive them so that your Father in heaven will also forgive your sins,Nanwi kila muimaho kuvoya na kumbe muna neno na mut'u musameheni kwamba na Babiyenu ariye mulunguni apate kumusamehe makosa genu
Jesus and his followers went again to Jerusalem Jesus was walking in the Temple area The leading priests the teachers of the law and the older Jewish leaders came to him,Bai makifika Jerusalemu kaheri Na Jesu arihokala anatsembera kahi za ro Hekalu o alombi abomu na alimu a Sheria na athumia makimwendera
They said Tell us What authority do you have to do these things Who gave you this authority,Makimuza makiamba Unahenda maut'u gano kwa wadimi wani Hedu ni h'ani ariyekup'a wadimi wa kugahenda
Jesus answered I will ask you a question You answer my question Then I will tell you whose authority I use to do these things,Jesu akiambira Nindamuza swali Mukinidzigidzya nindamwambira ni wadimi wani nihenderao maut'u gaga
Tell me When John baptized people did his authority come from God or was it only from other people Answer me,Vidze wo wadimi ariohumira Johana Mubat'izaji kubat'izira at'u wala kwa Mulungu hedu wala kwa anadamu Nidzigidzyani
These Jewish leaders talked about Jesus question They said to each other If we answer Johns baptism was from God then he will say Then why didnt you believe John,O alombi abomu na o athumia makiojana makiamba Fukiamba wala kwa Mulungu andafuza Kwanoni k'amumukuluhirire
But we cant say that Johns baptism was from someone else These leaders were afraid of the people because the people believed that John was a prophet,Na hukiamba Wala kwa anadamu be fu hatharini kwani at'u osi mandahutsukirirwa Manena vivi kwa kukala were ni aoga na at'u kwa kukala o at'u osi mamona Johana kukala ni nabii jeri
So the leaders answered Jesus We dont know the answer,Kwa vizho makimwamba Jesu K'ahumanya Jesu naye akiamba Hatha mimi nami sindamwambira wo wadimi nihumirao kuhendera maut'u gaga
Jesus used stories to teach the people He said A man planted a vineyard He put a wall around the field and dug a hole for a winepress Then he built a tower He leased the land to some farmers and left for a trip,Gonya Jesu akikwatya kunena nao na mafumbo akiamba Kwere kuna mut'u mumwenga ariyerima mundawe akiulaya mizabibu akiudengelezera wiyo akitsimba wina wa kukamulira zabibu kidza akiaka uringo wa kurindira Kugonya vizho wo munda akiukodishira ak'urima ye mwenye achenda ts'i nyingine
Later it was time for the grapes to be picked So the man sent a servant to the farmers to get his share of the grapes,Makathi ga mavuno garihofika akihuma muhumikiwe ende kwa aryahu ak'urima akagerwe fungu ra zo zabibu
But the farmers grabbed the servant and beat him They sent him away with nothing,Ye muhumiki arihofika o ak'urima makimuhala makimupiga gonya makimuja kihuhu
Then the man sent another servant to the farmers They hit this servant on the head showing no respect for him,Kuona vizho ye mut'u akihuma muhumiki mungine Iye naye makimwangiza ranga ra kitswa na makimuhendera makuruhu
So the man sent another servant The farmers killed this servant The man sent many other servants to the farmers The farmers beat some of them and killed the others,Akihuma mungine na o ak'urima makihenda kumwalaga kamare na angine anji mariohumwa mapigwa na angine makilagwa
The man had only one person left to send to the farmers It was his son He loved his son but he decided to send him He said The farmers will respect my son,Vikara ariyekala asere wa kumuhuma were ni mumwenga thu Naye were ni mwanawe mwenye amuhendzaye Bai akimuhuma akale wa mwisho akiamba kimoyo-moyo Bila shaka mandamuishimu
But the farmers said to each other This is the owners son and this vineyard will be his If we kill him it will be ours,Ela o ak'urima marihomona ye mwana makiambirana Yuno be hatha se andiyeuhala ufwa uno munda Alume nahumwalage yuyu na uu munda undakala wehu
So they took the son threw him out of the vineyard and killed him,Bai makimugwavukira makimwalaga gonya makimwamboza ndze ya wo munda
So what will the man who owns the vineyard do He will go and kill those farmers Then he will lease the land to others,Vidze munaona ye mwenye munda andahendadze Jesu akienderera kuamba Ye mwenye munda andakudzaalaga o ak'urima na wo munda aap'e at'u angine
Surely you have read this in the Scriptures,Vidze k'amudzagashoma gano Maoro gaambago
The Lord did this,Ut'u uwo wahendwa ni Bwana
When these Jewish leaders heard this story they knew it was about them They wanted to find a way to arrest Jesus but they were afraid of what the crowd would do So they left him and went away,Marihosikira vizho o athumia a Kiyahudi makijeza kumugwira Jesu kwani mamanya kukala ro fumbo ridzanenwa kwao ao ela makigoha wo muthunganano wa o at'u Kwa vizho makimuricha makihauka
Later the Jewish leaders sent some Pharisees and some men from the group called Herodians to Jesus They wanted to catch him saying something wrong,Ndo gonya makiahuma angine kahi za o Mafarisayo na at'u a Herode mende makamuhege na maswali
They went to Jesus and said Teacher we know that you are an honest man You are not afraid of what others think about you All people are the same to you And you teach the truth about Gods way Tell us is it right to pay taxes to Caesar Should we pay them or not,Hatha marihofika makimwamba Mwalimu hunamanya kukala uwe u mujeri K'ugoha mut'u yoyosi hatha kala ana cheo chani mana k'ulola at'u kwa uso Unafundisha ngira ya Mulungu jeri Bai fwambire Kuriha kodi kwa Kaisari ni karakara hedu si karakara
But Jesus knew that these men were really trying to trick him He said Why are you trying to catch me saying something wrong Bring me a silver coin Let me see it,Jesu akikumanya kare ko kudzihendya kwao akiamba Kwanoni munanijeza Nip'ani yo p'esa hedu niilole
They gave Jesus a coin and he asked Whose picture is on the coin And whose name is written on it They answered It is Caesars picture and Caesars name,Bai makiireha na makimup'a Jesu Na Jesu akiuza akiamba Ino sura iriyo hano na ro dzina ni zha h'ani Makiamba Ni zha Kaisari
Then Jesus said to them Give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and give to God what belongs to God The men were amazed at what Jesus said,Jesu akiambira H'aya bai zha Kaisari mup'eni Kaisari mwenye na zha Mulungu nazho mup'eni Mulungu Nao machangalazwa zhomu ni zho arizhodzigidzya
Then some Sadducees came to Jesus Sadducees believe that no one will rise from death They asked him a question,Gonya Masadukayo ambao manaamba k'akuna kufufuka makimudzirira Jesu makiamba
Teacher Moses wrote that if a married man dies and had no children his brother must marry the woman Then they will have children for the dead brother,Mwalimu Musa wafuorera kukala mut'u akifwererwa ni nduguye na akisiya muche ela asisiye ahoho ye nduguye mut'u ni amuhale ufwa ili amuzhalire ahoho ye mufwadzi
There were seven brothers The first brother married but died He had no children,Vikara kwere kuna ndugu afungahe ye mukulu wao akihala muche ela akifwa bila kuzhala naye
So the second brother married the woman But he also died and had no children The same thing happened with the third brother,Ye wa hiri akimuhala naye akifwa bila kusiya ahoho na wa hahu naye dzazho
All seven brothers married the woman and died None of the brothers had any children with her And she was the last to die,Osi afungahe makigoma kufwa bila kusiya ahoho Mwisho ye muche naye akiathuwa
But all seven brothers had married her So at the time when people rise from death whose wife will she be,Vidze makathi at'u mandihofufuka andakala mukaza h'ani Kwani o ndugu osi afungahe mamuhala
Jesus answered How could you be so wrong Its because you dont know what the Scriptures say And you dont know anything about Gods power,Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Ndo sababu munahenda makosa kwa kukala k'amumanya Maoro kidza k'amumanya nguvu za Mulungu zirizho
When people rise from death there will be no marriage People will not be married to each other All people will be like angels in heaven,Kwani wakathi at'u mandihofufuka kundakala k'akuna kuhala hedu kuhalwa kwani mandakala here malaika a mulunguni
Surely you have read what God said about people rising from death In the book where Moses wrote about the burning bushit says that God told Moses this I am the God of Abraham the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob,Bai dzulu za at'u kufufuka naamba k'amudzashoma kahi za chuwo cha Musa dzulu za kitsakuzi kirichokala kinaaka na viryahu Mulungu arizhonena na Musa akiamba Ndimi Mulungu wa Burahemu na Isaka na Jakobu
So they were not still dead because he is the God only of living people You Sadducees are so wrong,Vivi vinanyesa kukala Mulungu ni Mulungu wa at'u mario moyo si wa at'u mariofwa Ninwi Masadukayo munakosa sana
One of the teachers of the law came to Jesus He heard Jesus arguing with the Sadducees and the Pharisees He saw that Jesus gave good answers to their questions So he asked him Which of the commands is the most important,Bai mumwenga wa aryahu a alimu a Sheria were a haho na akisikira zho marizho were manauza-uza na akimanya kamare kukala Jesu adzadzigidzyat'o Kwa vizho naye akimuza rakwe akiamba Amuri ya kwandza ya zosi ni hiyo
Jesus answered The most important command is this People of Israel listen The Lord our God is the only Lord,Jesu akimudzigidzya akiamba Bomu ni ii iambayo Sirikizani h'enwi Aiziraeli Bwana wehu Mulungu ni mumwenga na nde Bwana h'akeye
Love the Lord your God with all your heart all your soul all your mind and all your strength,Muhendze Bwana Mulunguo na moyowo wosi na rohoro rosi na akilizo zosi na nguvuzo zosi
The second most important command is this Love your neighborthe same as you love yourselfThese two commands are the most important,Amuri ya hiri ni ii Muhendze mwandziyo here udzihendzazho mwenye K'akuna amuri bomu kukira zizi mbiri
The man answered That was a good answer Teacher You are right in saying that God is the only Lord and that there is no other God,Ye mwalimu wa Sheria akimwamba Udzadzigidzyat'o mwalimu U mujeri here udzizhoamba kwamba Mulungu ni mumwenga na k'akuna mungine hasihokala iye
And you must love God with all your heart all your mind and all your strength And you must love others the same as you love yourself These commands are more important than all the animals and sacrifices we offer to God,Na mut'u ni amuhendze na moyowe wosi na akilize zosi na nguvuze zosi na aahendze andziye dza zho adzihendzazho mwenye Kugwira malagizo gaga kudzakira kumboza sadaka za kuocha na nyingine-nyingine
Jesus saw that the man answered him wisely So he said to him You are close to Gods kingdom And after that time no one was brave enough to ask Jesus any more questions,Jesu arihomona kukala ye mwalimu wa Sheria adzadzigidzyat'o kilachu akimwamba Uwe k'ukure na uthawali wa Mulungu Bada ya gago k'ahakalireho na mut'u ariyedzisikira amuze swali
Jesus was teaching in the Temple area He asked Why do the teachers of the law say that the Messiah is the son of David,Badaye Jesu arihokala anafundisha kahi za ro Hekalu waauza swali o at'u akiamba Alimu a Sheria manadimadze kuamba kukala ye Masihi ni Mwana wa Daudi
With the help of the Holy Spirit David himself says,Daudi mwenye kahi za nguvu za Roho Mweri waamba
David himself calls the Messiah Lord So how can the Messiah be Davids son Many people listened to Jesus and were very pleased,Vikikala Daudi mwenye amwiha Bwana anadimadze kukala mwanawe Bai wo muthunganano mubomu ukimusirikiza na raha zhomu
Jesus continued teaching He said Be careful of the teachers of the law They like to walk around wearing clothes that look important And they love for people to show respect to them in the marketplaces,Jesu arihokala anafundisha waamba Dzimanyirireni na alimu a Sheria mahendzao kutsembera kuno madzavala miguwo mire kwamba malamuswe kwa ishima mo masokoni
They love to have the most important seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets,na kidza manahendza kugerwa vihi zha mbere kahi za masinagogi na kahi za sherehe
But they cheat widows and take their homes Then they try to make themselves look good by saying long prayers God will punish them very much,Kidza ao nikuahoka ache magungu vit'u zhao na kudzihendesha kukala ni adzo kwa kuvoya mavoyo mare-mare Adhabu yao indakala k'ali zaidhi
Jesus sat near the Temple collection boxand watched as people put money into it Many rich people put in a lot of money,Gonya Jesu achenda kahi za ro Hekalu na achendakelesi hehi na cho kiya cha kwangizira sadaka na akilolera viryahu at'u magwagazho p'esa Vikara akiona mashaha managwaga nyinji-nyinji
Then a poor widow came and put in two very small copper coins worth less than a penny,Na hakidza mwanamuche ariye were ni gungu kidza mukiya na akigwaga vipeni viri
Jesus called his followers to him and said This poor widow put in only two small coins But the truth is she gave more than all those rich people,Jesu akiaiha hamwenga o anafundzie na akiambira Namwambira ujeri yuyu mwanamuche gungu adzagwaga nyinji kukira osi
They have plenty and they gave only what they did not need This woman is very poor but she gave all she had It was money she needed to live on,Mana o angine madzamboza kafungu thu ka wo ushaha mario nao ela yuno ye ni masikini nyasi ela adzagwaga zhosi arizho nazho Adzamboza zhosi arizho were angaishira
Jesus was leaving the Temple area One of his followers said to him Teacher look how big those stones are What beautiful buildings,Bai arihokala anambola kula kahi za ro Hekalu hakimbola mumwenga wa o anafundzie akiamba Mwalimu lola zho garizho madzo go mawe ga ro Hekalu Lola wo mujengo nawo
Jesus said Do you see these great buildings They will all be destroyed Every stone will be thrown down to the ground Not one stone will be left on another,Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Munagaona gano majengo mabomu gosi Be namwambira ujeri wenye k'ahana iwe hatha mwenga rindirosala dzulu za mwandziwe kila kit'u kinadzabandwa-bandwa
Later Jesus was sitting at a place on the Mount of Olives He was alone with Peter James John and Andrew They could all see the Temple and they said to Jesus,Bai Jesu arihombola haho wakwendakelesi kahi za Murima wa Mizeituni uriwo unalolana na ro Hekalu hakidza P'et'ero Jakobu Johana na Anderea makimuza kinjama makiamba
Tell us when these things will happen And what will show us it is time for them to happen,Maut'u gano gandahendeka rini Vidze ni muvano wani undiwonyesa kukala makathi gadzafika ga maut'u gaga kuhendeka
Jesus said to them Be careful Dont let anyone fool you,Jesu akiambira Dzimanyirireni hasidze mut'u akamukenga
Many people will come and use my name They will say I am the Messiah and they will fool many people,Kwani at'u anji mandakudza kwa dzina rangu na mandadziamba kukala ao ndo ye Masihi na mandakenga at'u anji
You will hear about wars that are being fought And you will hear stories about other wars beginning But dont be afraid These things must happen before the end comes,Na mundasikira uvoro wa viha vihefwazho hehi na vingine mundahenda kuvisikira uvumi ela sogoheni kwani ni hatha gakale gago ela wo mwisho wa urumwengu undakala uchere mbere
Nations will fight against other nations Kingdoms will fight against other kingdoms There will be times when there is no food for people to eat And there will be earthquakes in different places These things are only the beginning of troubles like the first pains of a woman giving birth,Kabila rindauka kwendapigana na kabila ringine Uthawali undapigana na uthawali mungine Ts'i indathethema hat'u-hat'u na kundakala na ndzala Ela gago gosi gandakala ni mwandzo wa utsungu thu
You must be careful There are people who will arrest you and take you to be judged for being my followers They will beat you in their synagogues You will be forced to stand before kings and governors You will tell them about me,Nanwi dzimanyirireni kwani at'u mandamugwira mamuhirike manenoni Mandamupiga kahi za masinagogi na mundaima mbere za maluwali na athawali kwa ut'u wa dzina rangu na mwamboze ushahidhi mbere zao
Before the end comes the Good News must be told to all nations,Nawo Uvoro Udzo suthi kwandza wambirizwe at'u osi a kila samupuli kabila wo mwisho k'audzafika
Even when you are arrested and put on trial dont worry about what you will say Say whatever God tells you at the time It will not really be you speaking It will be the Holy Spirit,Na mandihomugwira kwenda nanwi manenoni musikale na wasiwasi dzulu za zho mundizhoadzigidzya ela nenani gago mundigogerwa Kwa kukala gago mundigoadzigidzya gandakala si genu ela ni ga Roho Mweri
Brothers will turn against their own brothers and hand them over to be killed Fathers will hand over their own children to be killed Children will fight against their own parents and have them killed,Mut'u andamulazha nduguye mwenye hedu mwanawe mwenye alagwe Ana nao mandaagalukira azhazi ao enye maalazhe malagwe
All people will hate you because you follow me But those who remain faithful to the end will be saved,Nanwi mundamenwa ni at'u osi kwa ut'u wa dzina rangu Ela andiyevumirira hatha mwisho andaokoka
You will see the terrible thing that causes destructionYou will see this thing standing in the place where it should not be Reader I trust you understand what this means Everyone in Judea at that time should run away to the mountains,Mundaona kit'u cha kutsukiza na cha kwanonga kiimire hat'u ambaho k'akivirya kuima H'ewe mushomi shomat'o ung'alirwe Bai mundihoona vizho at'u osi mandiokala Judea namachimbirire ko mirimani
They should run away without wasting time to stop for anything If someone is on the roof of their house they must not go down to take things out of the house,Mut'u andiyekala a dzulu za nyumba ya kwakwe asiuye mo nyumbani kwendahala kit'u chochosi
If someone is in the field they must not go back to get a coat,Mut'u andiyekala a mundani asiuye mudzini kwendahala valore
During that time it will be hard for women who are pregnant or have small babies,Wakathi uwo vindakala vii-vii zaidhi kwa ano m'ama mandiokala mana mimba na mandiokala manaamwisa
Pray that these things will not happen in winter,Bai voyani kwamba gaga gasihendeke makathi ga p'eho
because those days will be full of trouble There will be more trouble than has ever happened since the beginning when God made the world And nothing that bad will ever happen again,Kwani wakathi uwo kundakala na mateso mabomu garigo k'agadzaonewa hangu Mulungu aumbe urumwengu na k'agandaonewa kaheri haha urumwenguni
But the Lord has decided to make that terrible time short If it were not made short no one could survive But the Lord will make that time short to help the special people he has chosen,Siku zizo za mateso Bwana wazihunguza kwa ut'u wa at'u arioatsagula ela kala si vizho k'ahana hatha mut'u mumwenga angayeokoka
Someone might say to you at that time Look there is the Messiah Or another person might say There he is But dont believe them,Bai makathi gago mut'u akimwamba Lola thiyuno ye Masihi hedu Thiyuya kurya sikuluhireni bule
False messiahs and false prophets will come and do miracles and wonderstrying to fool the people God has chosen if that is possible,Mana kundambola ano Masihi anji a ulongo na manabii anji a ulongo At'u ao osi mandahenda mivano na maajabu ili vichadimikika maakenge hatha o at'u mariotsagulwa ni Mulungu
So be careful Now I have warned you about all this before it happens,Bai ninwi kalani matso nidzamwambira maut'u gaga kimbere
During the days following that time of trouble,Siku zizo bada ya mateso garyahu kukira dzuwa rindangira kiza na mwezi k'aundaala kaheri
The stars will fall from the sky,Nyenyezi zindagwa ts'i na nguvu za dzulu mulunguni zindathukuswa
Then people will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory,Ndo mandihomona Mwana wa Mudamu akudzani kahi za maingu hamwenga na nguvu nyinji na nguma
He will send his angels all around the earth They will gather his chosen people from every part of the earth,Naye andaahuma malaikae maakundzumanye o at'u osi mariotsagulwa ni Mulungu kula kila p'embe ya dhunia
The fig tree teaches us a lesson When its branches become green and soft and new leaves begin to grow then you know that summer is very near,Bai dzifundisheni kula kwa mutini Mutini t'aize zikikala nyolovu na kukwatya kumboza makodza munamanya kare wakathi wa mavuno udzafika hehi
In the same way when you see all these things happening you will know that the timeis very near already present,Kwa vizho ninwi nanwi mukiona maut'u gaga gosi manyani kukala wakathi wa kudza Mwana wa Mudamu udzafika hehi
I assure you that all these things will happen while some of the people of this time are still living,Nami namwambira kamare kizhazi kiki k'akindakira kabila maut'u gaga gosi kuthimira
The whole world earth and sky will be destroyed but my words will last forever,Mulunguni na ts'i vindahenda mwisho ela maneno gangu k'agana mwisho bule
No one knows when that day or time will be The Son and the angels in heaven dont know when that day or time will be Only the Father knows,Na k'ahana mut'u amanyaye ni siku yani hedu saa yani gandihokalira maut'u gaga hatha o malaika na ye Mwana wa Mudamu k'amaimanya bule Baba h'akeye nde aimanyaye
Be careful Always be ready You dont know when that time will be,Kwa vizho musilale kalani thayari wakathi wosi mana k'amumanya maut'u gaga gandakala rini
Its like a man who goes on a trip and leaves his house in the care of his servants He gives each one a special job to do He tells the servant guarding the door to always be ready And this is what I am telling you now,Vindakala ni here mut'u aukaye charo cha kure ariyehala nyumbaye akiarichira ahumikie mamutsundzire Kidza kila mumwenga akimup'a kaziye ya kuhenda gonya akimulagiza ye murindzi akale matso muhaka andihouya
You must always be ready You dont know when the owner of the house will come back He might come in the afternoon or at midnight or in the early morning or when the sun rises,Bai hatha ninwi kalani matso mana k'amumanya andakudza rini ye bwana mwenye nyumba Anadima akadza na dziloni hedu usiku ukulu hedu akadza jogolo rinaika hedu hatha akadza na madzach'a
If you are always ready he will not find you sleeping even if he comes back earlier than expected,Bai akihenda poo hasiho kukala na mbadha naye asidzemudulukiza murere
I tell you this and I say it to everyone Be ready,Gaga namwambira ninwi na hatha at'u osi Kalani matso
It was now only two days before the Passover and the Festival of Unleavened Bread The leading priests and teachers of the law were trying to find a way to arrest Jesus without the people seeing it Then they could kill him,Bai were zisere siku mbiri ndo iryahu sikuk'uu ya P'asaka na ya Mikahe Iso Ts'ats'u ifike nao o alombi abomu na alimu a Sheria makikala manamala ngira ya kilachu ya kumugwirira Jesu na mamwalage
They said But we cannot arrest Jesus during the festival We dont want the people to be angry and cause a riot,Makiambirana vivi Ut'u uu be nifusiuhende wakathi uu wa ii sikuk'uu p'ore at'u makathinya bugwa
Jesus was in Bethany at the house of Simon the leper While he was eating there a woman came to him She had an alabaster jar filled with expensive perfume made of pure nard She opened the jar and poured the perfume on Jesus head,Makathi gago Jesu were a nyumbani mwa mut'u ariyeifwa Simoni Mahana ko Beth'ania Vikara marihokala makuryani hakidza mwanamuche kuno adzatsukula ts'azi iriyotengezwa kula kwa iwe ra alabasita ya mafuha masafi ga marashi nago were ni ga gali sana Ye mwanamuche akihala yo ts'azi akibanda cho kifundiroche na akimumwagira Jesu go mafuha mo kitswani
Some of the followers there saw this They were upset and complained to each other They said Why waste that perfume,At'u angine mariokala haho kudzaona vizho k'aviafwahire bule kwani maamba Kuno be si kwanonga kuno
It was worth a full years payIt could have been sold and the money given to those who are poor And they told the woman what a bad thing she had done,Mafuha gaga kala gadzaguzwa gangambola zaidhi ya dinari magana mahahu na makagerwa masikini K'uzhona o at'u makikwatya kumudumulira ye mwanamuche
Jesus said Leave her alone Why are you giving her such trouble She did a very good thing for me,Ela Jesu arihoona vizho akiakanya akiamba Muricheni ye mwanamuche mbona munamubudzya Iye adzanihendera kit'u kidzo
You will always have the poor with youand you can help them any time you want But you will not always have me,Masikini munao siku zosini Bai kila muhendzaho munadima kuahendera zho muhendzazho ela mimi bai k'amundakala nami siku zosini bule
This woman did the only thing she could do for me She poured perfume on my body before I die to prepare it for burial,Adzahenda here adzizhodima kwani adzahenda vizho anithayarishe kwa kuzikwa kwangu
The Good News will be told to people all over the world And I can assure you that everywhere the Good News is told the story of what this woman did will also be told and people will remember her,Nami namwambira ujeri kukala zho adzizhohenda mwanamuche yuyu vivi rero be vindathalwa na kukumbukirwa kila undihohubiriwa wo Uvoro Udzo kahi za urumwengu muzima
Then Judas Iscariot one of the twelve apostles went to talk to the leading priests about handing Jesus over to them,Ndo Juda Isikariote mumwenga wa aryahu anafundzi kumi na airi a Jesu akiuka na achendaambira o alombi abomu viryahu mangazhodima kumugwira Jesu kirahisi
They were very happy about this and they promised to pay him So he waited for the best time to hand Jesus over to them,Na o alombi abomu marihosikira vivi makifwahirwa sana na makilagana naye kumup'a p'esa Kwa vizho Juda Isikariote akiandza kumala nafasi mbidzo ya kumusalitira Jesu
It was now the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Breadthe day the lambs were killed for the Passover Jesus followers came to him and said We will go and prepare everything for you to eat the Passover meal Where do you want us to have the meal,Bai siku ya kwandza ya sikuk'uu ya Mikahe Iso Ts'ats'u ambayo ndo siku ya kutsindza ng'ondzi za sikuk'uu ya P'asaka o anafundzi mamuza Jesu makiamba P'asaka ino undairyahi fukakuthayarishire
Jesus sent two of his followers into the city He said to them Go into the city You will see a man carrying a jar of water He will come to you Follow him,Arihosikira vizho Jesu akiahuma anafundzie airi akialagiza akiamba Endani hatha mumo mudzini nanwi mundathungana mwanamulume adzatsukula muthanga wa madzi Vikara mundihomona muthuweni nyuma
He will go into a house Tell the owner of the house The Teacher asks that you show us the room where he and his followers can eat the Passover meal,muhaka yo nyumba andiyongira Muchangira mwambeni ye mwenye nyumba vivi Mwalimu adzaamba cho chumba cha ajeni ambacho iye na anafundzie mandarya sikuk'uu ya P'asaka ni hicho
The owner will show you a large room upstairs that is ready for us Prepare the meal for us there,Andihosikira vizho andamwanyesa chumba kibomu cha gorofani kiricho kina kila kit'u Bai mukichona kwatyani kupanga-panga mumo
So the followers left and went into the city Everything happened the way Jesus said So the followers prepared the Passover meal,Kwa vizho o anafundzi airi machenda mo mudzini na makiona vizho arizho were Jesu adzaamba zhenye Ndo makipanga-panga kwa ut'u wa yo sikuk'uu ya P'asaka
In the evening Jesus went to that house with the twelve apostles,Na kurihokala kudzakala dziloni Jesu achenda mo mudzini hamwenga na o anafundzie kumi na airi
While they were all at the table eating he said Believe me when I say that one of you will hand me over to my enemiesone of you eating with me now,Marihokala madzakelesi na makuryani Jesu akiamba Namwambira ujeri mumwenga wenu ariye tha hunarya naye haha andanisaliti
The followers were very sad to hear this Each one said to Jesus Surely I am not the one,Kusikira vizho o anafundzi makidzalwa ni kigondzi na makiuza mumwenga-mumwenga makiamba Vidze ni mimi mwalimu
Jesus answered It is one of you twelvethe one who is dipping his bread in the same bowl with me,Jesu akiambira Iye ni mumwenga wa ninwi kumi na airi iye atsotsaye muvureni hamwenga nami
The Son of Man will suffer what the Scriptures say will happen to him But it will be very bad for the one who hands over the Son of Man to be killed It would be better for him if he had never been born,Ni jeri Mwana wa Mudamu anenda kare kamwe here Maoro gaambazho ela shauriye iye mut'u amusalitiye Vingakala baha kala k'azhalirwe
While they were eating Jesus took some bread and thanked God for it He broke off some pieces gave them to his followers and said Take and eat this bread It is my body,Vikara marihokala makuryani Jesu wahala mukahe akimboza muvera kwa Mulungu gonya akiumogola-mogola akiap'a o anafundzie akiamba Halani uu ndo mwiri wangu
Then he took a cup of wine thanked God for it and gave it to them They all drank from the cup,Arihogonya kuap'a wo mukahe akihala cho kikombe cha divai akimboza muvera kwa Mulungu gonya akiap'a makinwa osini
Then he said This wine is my blood which will be poured out for many to begin the new agreement from God to his people,Akiambira Ii ndo milatso yangu imwagikayo kwa ut'u wa at'u anji na inanyesa kilagane kisha kahi za Mulungu na mudamu
I want you to know I will not drink this wine again until that day when I drink it in Gods kingdom and the wine is new,Nami namwambira ujeri sindanwa divai ii kaheri muhaka siku iyo nindihonwa divai mbisha kahi za uthawali wa Mulungu
They all sang a song and then went out to the Mount of Olives,Gonya makiimba na makiuka kwenda Murima wa Mizeituni
Then Jesus told the followers You will all lose your faith The Scriptures say,Jesu akiambira anafundzie akiamba Usiku wa rero ninwi nyosi mundaniricha h'akiyangu Kwani Maoro ganaamba Nindamupiga ye murisa na zo ng'ondzi zosi zindatsamukana
But after I am killed I will rise from death Then I will go to Galilee I will be there before you come,Ela haho nikikala nidzafufulwa nindamuthangulia kwenda Galilaya
Peter said All the other followers may lose their faith But my faith will never be shaken,P'et'ero akimwamba Hatha kala osi mandakuricha mimi sindakuricha ng'o
Jesus answered The truth is tonight you will say you dont know me You will say it three times before the rooster crows twice,Jesu akimwambira P'et'ero Simoni nakwambira ujeri usiku wa rero kabila jogolo k'aridzaika k'ana mbiri undanikana k'ana t'ahu
But Peter strongly protested I will never say I dont know you I will even die with you And all the other followers said the same thing,P'et'ero arihosikira vizho akinena kwa nguvu akiamba Hatha kala ni kufwa nanifwe ela sindakukana ng'o Na o anafundzi angine nao makinena dza vizho
Jesus and his followers went to a place named Gethsemane He said to them Sit here while I pray,Gonya Jesu na anafundzie machenda hat'u haifwaho Geth'isemane Marihofika haho akiambira o anafundzie akiamba Kelesini haha nami ninavoya haryahu
But he told Peter James and John to come with him He began to be very distressed and troubled,Akimuhala P'et'ero Jakobu na Johana achenda nao Wakathi uwo washononeka zhomu na kubudzyika moyo
and he said to them My heart is so heavy with grief I feel as if I am dying Wait here and stay awake,Akiambira o ahahu akiamba Ninashononeka zhomu moyoni mwangu hatha ni here nindiyefwa Bai kalani haha muchese
Jesus went on a little farther away from them fell to the ground and prayed He asked that if possible he would not have this time of suffering,Gonya Jesu akiaricha o ano P'et'ero haho ye akisongera mbere vichache Achendagwa na moyo akivoya kwamba vichadimikika mateso gago gakire na k'anda
He said,Akiamba Aba Baba K'akuna ut'u usiwodimikika kwako Bai navoya uniusire mateso gaga ela navikale here uhendzazho uwe visikale here nihendzazho mimi bule
Then he went back to his followers and found them sleeping He said to Peter Simon why are you sleeping Could you not stay awake with me for one hour,Gonya akiauyira o anafundzie na achendaathekeza marere Kuona vizho akimwamba P'et'ero Simoni hatha urere kamare Yani k'udima kukala matso ngaa saa mwenga
Stay awake and pray for strength against temptation Your spirit wants to do what is right but your body is weak,Chesani na muvoye sidze mukangira majezoni kwani roho inahendza kamare ela wo mwiri ni munyonge
Again Jesus went away and prayed the same thing,Gonya akiuka kaheri kwendavoya naye wavoya mavoyo dza gago ga chaho
Then he went back to the followers and again found them sleeping They could not stay awake They did not know what they should say to him,Naye arihoauyira achendaathekeza marere kaheri K'amadimire kukala matso kwa wo uts'indzizi mariwokala nawo Nao k'amapatire ra kumudzigidzya
After Jesus prayed a third time he went back to his followers He said to them Are you still sleeping and resting Thats enough The time has come for the Son of Man to be handed over to the control of sinful men,Arihouka na kudza kaheri lwa hahu akidzaambira Muchere kulala na kudzioyeza Vinathosha Lolani wakathi wa Mwana wa Mudamu kusalitiwa kwa enye dambi udzafika
Stand up We must go Here comes the man who is handing me over to them,H'aya ukani fwende Siyu kare iye anisalitiye
While Jesus was still speaking Judas one of the twelve apostles came there He had a big crowd of people with him all carrying swords and clubs They had been sent from the leading priests the teachers of the law and the older Jewish leaders,Bai arihokala achere kunena poo Juda mumwenga wa o anafundzi kumi na airi na kundi bomu ra at'u Angine were madzatsukula mishu na angine were madzatsukula njogoma At'u aa were mala kwa alombi abomu na alimu a Sheria na athumia a Kiyahudi
Judasplanned to do something to show them which one was Jesus He said The one I kiss will be Jesus Arrest him and guard him while you lead him away,Bai ye musaliti were adzaap'a muvano kukala Ye nindiyemudonera nde mumumalaye mugwireni na mwende naye ts'ini za urindzi mukali
So Judas went over to Jesus and said Teacher Then he kissed him,Bai arihokudza achenda mara mwenga na akiamba Mwalimu gonya akimudonera
The men grabbed Jesus and arrested him,Kudzaona vizho o at'u makimwangiza magandzani Jesu
One of the followers standing near Jesus grabbed his sword and pulled it out He swung it at the servant of the high priest and cut off his ear,Na mumwenga wa aryahu mariokala maimire haho akitsolola mushuwe na akimuthema muhumiki wa ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye akimutosa sikiro
Then Jesus said Why do you come to get me with swords and clubs as if I were a criminal,Jesu akiauza o at'u akiamba Mbona mudzambola na mishu na njogoma kudzanigwira dza here mudzaogwira jambazi
Every day I was with you teaching in the Temple area You did not arrest me there But all these things have happened to show the full meaning of what the Scriptures said,Kila siku nidzakala nikiima mbere yenu kahi za ro Hekalu kufundisha na k'amunigwirire Ela gaga ganakala kwamba Maoro gathimire
Then all of Jesus followers left him and ran away,Bai o anafundzie osi makimuricha makichimbira
One of those following Jesus was a young man wearing only a linen cloth When the people tried to grab him,Vikara hakikala hana muvulana mumwenga ariyekala adzadzikut'a shuka ya kitani naye wakala anamala kumuthuwa Jesu o at'u makijeza kumugwira naye
he left the cloth in their hands and ran away naked,ela akidzivitha akiitsulusiza yo shuka ya kitani akichimbira huhu
Those who arrested Jesus led him to the house of the high priest All the leading priests the older Jewish leaders and the teachers of the law were gathered there,Bai makimuthongozha Jesu hatha ko kwa Mulombi mubomu mwenye kuriko were ndo kudzikokundzumanyika o alombi abomu alimu a Sheria na athumia angine a Kiyahudi
Peter followed Jesus but stayed back at a distance He followed him to the yard of the high priests house He went into the yard and sat there with the guards warming himself by their fire,Naye P'et'ero akimuthuwa nyuma kwa kure hatha haryahu muhalani ha ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye bai akikelesi hamwenga na o arindzi a ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye na akikwatya kuoha moho
The leading priests and the whole high council tried to find something that Jesus had done wrong so they could kill him But the council could find no proof that would allow them to kill Jesus,O alombi abomu na ro Baraza rosi ra athumia mamala kosa ra kumwalagira Jesu ela k'amapatire bule
Many people came and told lies against Jesus but they all said different things None of them agreed,Anji mamboza ushahidhi wa ulongo ela hatha vizho wo ushahidhi wao k'augwiranire kamare
Then some others stood up and told more lies against Jesus They said,Angine maungarara makimboza ushahidhi wa ulongo dzulu za Jesu makiamba
We heard this mansay I will destroy this Temple built by human hands And three days later I will build another Temple not made by human hands,Famusikira anaamba vivi Nindaribanda-banda riri Hekalu ririroakwa ni at'u nami nindaaka ringine risiroakwa ni at'u kwa siku t'ahu thu
But also what these people said did not agree,Hatha wo ushahidhi uwo nawo k'augwiranire bule
Then the high priest stood up before everyone and said to Jesus These people said things against you Do you have something to say about their charges Are they telling the truth,Ndo ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye akirungarara mbere za ro Baraza ra athumia na akimuza Jesu akiamba Mbona k'udzigidzya kit'u Zho manenazho ano at'u ni jeri
But Jesus said nothing to answer him,Ela Jesu akinyamala zii k'adzigidzyire kit'u Ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye akimuza kaheri akiamba We ndiwe ye Masihi Mwana wa Mulungu
Jesus answered Yes I am the Son of God And in the future you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right side of God AllPowerful And you will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven,Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Ee ndimi Nanwi mundamona Mwana wa Mudamu akelesi mukono wa kurya wa Mulungu mwenye nguvu na anadza kuno a dzulu za maingu ga ko dzulu
When the high priest heard this he tore his clothes in anger He said We dont need any more witnesses,Kusikira vizho ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye akitharura nguwoze kwa kutsukirwa akiamba Vino funa haja ya mashahidhi angine
You all heard these insults to God What do you think,Nyosi mudzasikira zho amukufuruzho Mulungu Vidze munaona baha humuhendedze be vino Na osi makikira luhande lumwenga lwa kuamba anavirya alagwe
Some of the people there spit at him They covered his eyes and hit him with their fists They said Be a prophetand tell us who hit you Then the guards led Jesus away and beat him,Angine o hatha makikwatya kumutsuhira mahe na makimufunga kizuzu makimupiga makonde kuno manamwamba H'aya nena ni h'ani ye adziyekupiga Na o shikari makimuhala na makimupiga mahi
While Peter was still in the yard a servant girl of the high priest came there,P'et'ero were achere ko muhalani kwa ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye hakidza muhendzi wa kazi wa kiche wa ye Mulombi mubomu
She saw him warming himself by the fire She looked closely at him and said You were with Jesus that man from Nazareth,Bai arihomona P'et'ero anaoha moho wamulolat'o gonya akimwamba Uwe nawe udzakala u hamwenga na Jesu wa Nazareth'i
But Peter said this was not true That makes no sense he said I dont know what you are talking about Then he left and went to the entrance of the yard and a rooster crowed,P'et'ero akikanaiza akiamba Simumanya kwandza hatha go unenago k'aganing'alira Naye tw'ee achambola ko ndze ko muviryani na jogolo rikihenda hee
When the servant girl saw him there she began saying again to the people standing around This man is one of them,Ye musichana akimona haho naho na akikwatya kuambira ao mariokala maimire haho akiamba Yuyu naye ni mumwenga waho
Again Peter said it was not true,P'et'ero akiakanaiza kaheri ela k'avitoere ao mariokala haho makimwamba P'et'ero Uwe be u mumwenga waho kamare kwandza hatha kwenu ni Galilaya t'i
Then Peter began to curse He said I swear to God I dont know this man you are talking about,Ndo P'et'ero akiandza kulani na kuapa akiamba Hachi ya Mulungu kamare yuyu mut'u mumuhadzaye be simumanya
As soon as Peter said this the rooster crowed the second time Then he remembered what Jesus had told him Before the rooster crows twice you will say three times that you dont know me Then Peter began to cry,Haho henye jogolo rikiika lwa hiri na P'et'ero akikumbukira zho Jesu arizhokala adzamwambira kukala Kabila jogolo k'aridzaika k'ana mbiri undanikana k'ana t'ahu P'et'ero arihoririkana vizho akiandza kurira kare kwa utsungu
Very early in the morning the leading priests the older Jewish leaders the teachers of the law and the whole high council decided what to do with Jesus They tied him led him away and handed him over to Governor Pilate,Vikara kurihocha na madzach'a maitsi genye o alombi abomu alimu a Sheria athumia a Kiyahudi hamwenga na baraza rosi mahenda mipango yao Bai makimuhala makimufunga na makimuhirika kwa P'ilato ariye were nde luwali wa jimbo riro
Pilate asked Jesus Are you the king of the Jews,Marihofika kuko P'ilato akimuza Jesu akiamba Vidze we ndiwe muthawali wa Ayahudi Jesu akimudzigidzya akimwamba Uwe udzanena
The leading priests accused Jesus of many things,O alombi abomu makimusingizira maut'u manji gasigofwaha Ela iye Jesu mwenye tha k'ajibire kit'u wanyamala zii
So Pilate asked Jesus another question He said You can see that these people are accusing you of many things Why dont you answer,Ye P'ilato akimuza kaheri akiamba Udzagasikira go maut'u manji madzigokushithakira
But Jesus still did not answer and this really surprised Pilate,Na here ho chaho Jesu akithuwa kumunyamalira Vivi vikimumasha P'ilato
Every year at the Passover time the governor would free one prisonerwhichever one the people wanted,Bai here adha ra P'ilato were kila makathi ga sikuk'uu ya P'asaka ni kuavugulira mufungwa mumwenga mandiyemutsagula enye
There was a man in prison at that time named Barabbas He and the rebels with him had been put in prison for committing murder during a riot,Vikara kwereko mut'u mumwenga kifungoni ariyeifwa Baraba Iye na andziye mere mapatikana na makosa ga kugwaga rabusha na kwalaga kwa ut'u wa kukahala uthawali wa Kirumi
The people came to Pilate and asked him to free a prisoner as he always did,Ndo at'u marihokala madzadzala ndii ho ha P'ilato makikwatya kumwambira ye P'ilato aahendere here aahenderazho siku zosi
Pilate asked them Do you want me to free the king of the Jews,Bai P'ilato akiauza akiamba Vidze munahendza nimuvugulire yuno muthawali wa Ayahudi
Pilate knew that the leading priests had handed Jesus over to him because they were jealous of him,Kwani P'ilato wamanya kukala o alombi abomu madzamushithaki Jesu kwa sababu ya wivu thu
But the leading priests persuaded the people to ask Pilate to free Barabbas not Jesus,Ela o alombi abomu makiavuga akili o at'u kwamba hat'u ha kuamba arichizwe Jesu maambe mavugulirwe Baraba
Pilate asked the people again So what should I do with this man you call the king of the Jews,P'ilato akiauza kaheri o at'u akiamba Vikara yuno mumwihaye muthawali wa Ayahudi nimuhendedze
The people shouted Kill him on a cross,O at'u makipiga k'ululu kaheri na kuamba Musulubishe
Pilate asked Why What wrong has he done,P'ilato akiauza akiamba Kwani adzakosani kibomu Ela o hatha makikaza kupiga k'ululu kuamba Musulubishe
Pilate wanted to please the people so he set Barabbas free for them And he told the soldiers to beat Jesus with whips Then he handed him over to the soldiers to be killed on a cross,Vikara kwa kukala P'ilato were anamala kufwahiza ro kundi ra at'u waambozera Baraba gonya akiamuru Jesu apigwe vikotho ndo akimulazha ende akasulubiwe
Pilates soldiers took Jesus into the governors palace called the Praetorium They called all the other soldiers together,Bai Jesu akihalwa ni shikari na machenda naye muryahu muhalani mwa nyumba ya luwali ambamo mumo ndo k'ambi ya jeshi gonya makiaiha o andziyao osi
They put a purple robe on Jesus made a crown from thorny branches and put it on his head,Makihala riguwo ra rangi ya zambarau makimuvika makitengeza kiremba cha miya makimuvika kitswani
Then they began shouting Welcome king of the Jews,Gonya makikwatya kumuvudhya na kumulamusa makiamba K'una ut'u muheshimiwa muthawali wa Ayahudi
They kept on beating his head with a stick and spitting on him Then they bowed down on their knees and pretended to honor him as a king,Kidza makimupiga kitswani na mudhath'a makimutsuhira mahe makidzihendesha kupiga mavindi na makizama mbereze hatha vidhangu zhao vikigut'a ts'i
After they finished making fun of him they took off the purple robe and put his own clothes on him again Then they led him out of the palace to be killed on a cross,Marihokala madzamuvudhya zha kuthosha mamuvula ro riguwo ra zambarau makimuvika zo nguwoze kaheri makimuthongozha kwendamusulubisha
There was a man from Cyrene named Simon walking into the city from the fields He was the father of Alexander and Rufus The soldiers forced him to carry Jesus cross,Marihokala makwendani makimuthungana mut'u aifwaye Simoni Muk'irene ala mashambani naye makimulazimisha autsukule wo musalaba wa Jesu Yuyu Simoni nde babaye Alekizanda na Rufo
They led Jesus to the place called Golgotha Golgotha means The Place of the Skull,H'aya ndoo vivi hatha makimufisha Jesu hat'u haifwaho Gologoth'a ambaho manaye ni Ribeshe ra Kitswa
There they gave him some wine mixed with myrrh but he refused to drink it,Na haho bai makimup'a divai ya kutsanganywa na manemane anwe ela Jesu akiikahala
The soldiers nailed Jesus to a cross Then they divided his clothes among themselves throwing dice to see who would get what,Marihogonya kumusulubisha mahala zo nguwoze makizigazha kwa kuhenda kuzipigira k'ura maone ni h'ani andahala hiyo
It was nine oclock in the morning when they nailed Jesus to the cross,Wakathi manamusulubisha were ni saa t'ahu za madzach'a
There was a sign with the charge against him written on it It said,Ho dzulu za wo musalaba makihala kibao makindhika ro kosa mariromushithakira
They also nailed two criminals to crosses beside Jesusone on the right and the other on the left,Na kidza makiasulubisha aivi airi hamwenga na Jesu mumwenga mukono wa kurya na mungine mukono wa kumots'o
People walked by and said bad things to Jesus They shook their heads and said You said you could destroy the Temple and build it again in three days,Bai o at'u mariokira na haho arihosulubiwa Jesu mamusholera makithukusa vitswa zhao kikavudhye makiamba H'aya kw'aamba undaribanda ro Hekalu na uriake kwa siku t'ahu vino
So save yourself Come down from that cross,H'aya dziokole mwenye be vivi Thima kula ho musalabani
The leading priests and the teachers of the law were also there They made fun of Jesus the same as the other people did They said to each other He saved others but he cant save himself,Na o alombi abomu na alimu a Sheria nao makimusholera dza vizho zha akizi a ngira Makiamba Waokola at'u angine ela vino k'adima kudzakola mwenye
If he is really the Messiah the king of Israel he should come down from the cross now When we see this then we will believe in him The criminals on the crosses beside Jesus also said bad things to him,Vikara nahulole chamba ye Masihi muthawali wa Iziraeli andathima kula ho musalabani Akithima fundaona na fundamuamini Na o at'u airi mariosulubiwa hamwenga naye kidza nao mamusholera dza vizho zha o angine
At noon the whole country became dark This darkness continued until three oclock,Bai bada ya Jesu kusulubiwa ts'i yosi yagit'ana kiza kuandzira saa sitha muhadhi saa chenda
At three oclock Jesus cried out loudly,Inafika saa chenda Jesu akirira na sauthi bomu akiamba
Some of the people standing there heard this They said Listen He is calling Elijah,Kusikira vizho angine kahi za ao at'u mariokala maimire haho makiamba Sirikizani anamwiha Elija benwi
One man there ran and got a sponge He filled the sponge with sour wine and tied it to a stick Then he used the stick to give the sponge to Jesus to get a drink from it The man said We should wait now and see if Elijah will come to take him down from the cross,Ndo mumwenga wao akikot'a malo achendavwika buwa kahi za siki akiridunga mudhath'ani akimup'a Jesu anyunye Akiamba Richani hulole chamba Elija andakudzamuthinya
Then Jesus cried out loudly and died,Jesu akipiga k'ululu na akimarigizika
When Jesus died the curtain in the Temple was torn into two pieces The tear started at the top and tore all the way to the bottom,Na yo p'azia iriyokala kahi za ro Hekalu yapashuka ikigazhika p'ande mbiri kula dzulu hatha ts'ini
The army officer who was standing there in front of the cross saw what happened when Jesus died The officer said This man really was the Son of God,Ye mubomu wa shikari ariyekala aimire haho hehi naye arihoona viryahu adzizhorira na kumarigizika akiamba Mut'u yuyu were ni Mwana wa Mulungu jeri
Some women were standing away from the cross watching Among these women were Mary Magdalene Salome and Mary the mother of James and Joses James was her youngest son,Na haho were hana anaache manavilolera kwa kure Kahi za ao mariokala haho were ni Maryamu Magidalena na Maryamu mameye Jakobu muthithe na Jose na mwanamuche mungine aifwaye Salome
These were the women who had followed Jesus in Galilee and cared for him Many other women who had come with Jesus to Jerusalem were also there,Aa na anaache angine anji makala makimuthuwa na kumuhumikira Jesu arihokala ko Galilaya nao mambuka na Jesu muhaka ko Jerusalemu
This day was called Preparation day That means the day before the Sabbath day It was becoming dark,Siku iyo were ni siku ya kuthayarishira Sabato Vikara kabila dzuwa k'aridzatswa
A man named Joseph from Arimathea was brave enough to go to Pilate and ask for Jesus body Joseph was an important member of the high council He was one of the people who wanted Gods kingdom to come,mut'u mumwenga ariyeifwa Josefu wa Arimath'ea wakwenda kwa P'ilato bila woga kwendaumala mwiri wa Jesu akauzike Josefu yuyu were anagofwewa ni ro Baraza rosi na kidza were anauthariza uthawali wa Mulungu
Pilate was surprised to hear that Jesus was already dead So he called for the army officer in charge and asked him if Jesus was already dead,P'ilato wamashwa ni zho zha kukala adzafwa kare Kwa vizho akimwiha ye mubomu wa shikari akimuza chamba adzamarigizika kare
When Pilate heard it from the officer he told Joseph he could have the body,Arihoambirwa ni ye shikari kukala ni jeri adzafwa akimuruhusu Josefu ahale wo mwiri
Joseph bought some linen cloth He took the body from the cross wrapped it in the linen and put the body in a tomb that was dug in a wall of rock Then he closed the tomb by rolling a large stone to cover the entrance,Josefu akigula ts'andza ya kitani akiuthinya na akiulinga-linga iryahu ts'andza ya kitani na achendaulaza kahi za mbira iriyohenda kutsongwa iweni Gonya akihala iwe bomu akiripingilisa rikifinikira wo mulomo wa yo mbira
Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses saw the place where Jesus was put,Maryamu Magidalena na Maryamu mameye Jose mahaona ho arihozikwa
The next day after the Sabbath day Mary Magdalene Salome and Mary the mother of James bought some sweetsmelling spices to put on Jesus body,Vikara siku ya Sabato irihokala idzakira Maryamu Magidalena Salome na Maryamu mameye Jakobu machendagula mavumba kwamba makamumwagire
Very early on that day the first day of the week the women were going to the tomb It was very early after sunrise,Bai madzach'a maitsi siku ya kwandza ya wiki dzuwa ririhokala ridzapashula ingu machenda ko mbirani
The women walked into the tomb and saw a young man there wearing a white robe He was sitting on the right side of the tomb The women were afraid,Bai machangira mo ndani ya mbira makiona muvulana akelesi luhande lwa mukonowa kurya na adzavala valo raruhe tse Vikiangalaza kare
But the man said Dont be afraid You are looking for Jesus from Nazareth the one who was killed on a cross He has risen from death He is not here Look here is the place they put him when he was dead,Ela ye muvulana akiambira Visimwangalaze amba munamumala Jesu wa Nazareth'i ariyesulubiwa k'aho haha adzafufuka Lolani samba maulaza haha mino
Now go and tell his followers And be sure to tell Peter Tell them Jesus is going into Galilee and will be there before you come You will see him there as he told you before,Vikara vivi uyani mukaambire o anafundzie haswa P'et'ero maneno gaga Andamuthangulia kwenda Galilaya kuko ndiko mundikomona here arizhomwambira
The women were very afraid and confused They left the tomb and ran away They did not tell about what happened because they were afraid,Kwa vizho machambola haraka zhomu mo mbirani kuno miri inaavina ut'u wa kwangalaza kwa wo woga Makimbola malo genye Ngira yosi k'amanenere na mut'u kwani woga were udzaadzala zhomu
Jesus rose from death early on the first day of the week He appeared first to Mary Magdalene One time in the past Jesus had forced seven demons out of Mary,Arihokala adzafufuka yo siku ya kwandza ya wiki na madzach'a bai kwandza kamare wamwambolera Maryamu Magidalena ariyekala wamwamboza p'ep'o afungahe ho nyuma-nyuma
After Mary saw Jesus she went and told his followers They were very sad and were crying,Naye Maryamu achendaambira aryahu mariokala osi nao were madzadzalwa ni kigondzi na were manarira
But Mary told them that Jesus was alive She said that she had seen Jesus but they did not believe her,Marihomusikira Maryamu Magidalena anaamba Jesu a moyo hatha adzamona na dzitsore k'amakuluhirire bule
Later Jesus appeared to two followers while they were walking in the country But Jesus did not look the same as before he was killed,Kidza badaye waambolera lwazu anafundzi airi naye umbore were ridzakala ringine Ao mariombolerwa ni Jesu mere ma ngirani manenda mashambani
These followers went back to the other followers and told them what happened Again the followers did not believe them,Kuona vizho makiuya machendaambira o andziyao ela hatha vizho ao nao k'amakuluhirire
Later Jesus appeared to the eleven followers while they were eating He criticized them because they had so little faith They were stubborn and refused to believe the people who said Jesus had risen from death,Mwisho kamare akiambolera lwazu o anafundzi kumi na mumwenga nao were makeresi makungizani riziki Naye Jesu akiadumulira kwa kutsakuluhira kwao na mioyo yao mikomu mana k'amaakuluhirire aryahu mariokala madzamona arihokala adzafufuka
He said to them Go everywhere in the world Tell the Good News to everyone,Akiambira H'aya bai endani kahi za urumwengu wosi mukauhubiri Uvoro Udzo wa Mulungu kwa at'u a kila samupuli
Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved But those who do not believe will be judged guilty,Iye andiyekuluhira na kubat'izwa yundaokoka na iye ariye k'andakuluhira yundahukumiwa
And the people who believe will be able to do these things as proof They will use my name to force demons out of people They will speak in languages they never learned,Na ao makuluhirao mandagerwa mivano ii ya wadimi Kwa dzina rangu mandamboza p'ep'o na mandanena na luga nyingine
If they pick up snakes or drink any poison they will not be hurt They will lay their hands on sick people and they will get well,Mandagwira nyoka na k'amandaaluma na hatha makinwa ut'u wa kwalaga k'amandafwa kamare mandaaikira mikono akongo nao mandahola
After the Lord Jesus said these things to his followers he was carried up into heaven There Jesus sat at the right side of God,Bai Bwana Jesu arihogonya kunena nao akinulwa achenda dzulu mulunguni akikelesi mukono wa kurya wa Mulungu
The followers went everywhere in the world telling people the Good News and the Lord helped them By giving them power to do miracles the Lord proved that their message was true,Ndo o anafundzi machenda kila hat'u kuhubiri Uvoro Udzo wa Mulungu kuno Mulungu anahenda kazi hamwenga nao Na lola ye Mulungu wahenda wo uvoro uonewe kukala ni wa jeri kwa kuagera wadimi wa kuhenda miujiza
Most Honorable Theophilus Many others have tried to give a report of the things that happened among us to complete Gods plan,Kwa muheshimiwa Th'eofilo At'u anji majeza here madimazho kundhika garyahu maut'u ambago gahendeka kahikahi zehu
What they have written agrees with what we learned from the people who saw those events from the beginning They also served God by telling people his message,At'u ao maora go hurigoambirwa ni ao mashudhia a maut'u gaga na mario pia were ni alimu a wo Uvoro
I studied it all carefully from the beginning Then I decided to write it down for you in an organized way,Kwa vizho muheshimiwa Th'eofilo kwa kukala mimi mwenye nami navichunguza zhosi na nikivithuwa t'ot'ot'o kula chaho naona ni vidzo nami nikuorere t'ot'ot'o here maut'u garizhokala
I did this so that you can be sure that what you have been taught is true,kwamba udime kumanya ujeri wosi wa maut'u urigofundishwa
During the time when Herod ruled Judea there was a priest named Zechariah He belonged to Abijahs groupHis wife came from the family of Aaron Her name was Elizabeth,Bai wakathi muthawali Herode anathawala Judea kwakala na mulombi ariyekala anaifwa Zakaria Zakaria yuyu were anambola kahi za lukolo lwa kilombi lwa Abija Muchewe were anaifwa Elizabeth'i kidza naye were anambola kahi za lukolo lwa kilombi lwa Haruni
Zechariah and Elizabeth were both good people who pleased God They did everything the Lord commanded always following his instructions completely,Osi airi mut'u na muchewe were manaishi maisha ga kumufwahiza Mulungu kidza were manazigwira amuri zosi na malagizo gosi ga Bwana hasiho kaila
But they had no children Elizabeth could not have a baby and both of them were very old,Ela ko were k'amana ahoho bule kwani Elizabeth'i were ni t'asa kidza visithoshe osi airi were madzakala athumia jeri-jeri
Zechariah was serving as a priest before God for his group It was his groups time to serve,Vikara siku mwenga Zakaria were anaenderera na kaziye ya ulombi mumo kahi za ro Hekalu Jaore kahi za maut'u ga ulombi were ndo ririro isani kahi za wakathi uwo
The priests always chose one priest to offer the incense and Zechariah was the one chosen this time So he went into the Temple of the Lord to offer the incense,Kwa vizho marihopiga k'urakulengana na adha rao ikimugwerera Zakaria kwamba angire haryahu hat'u haeri kahi za ro Hekalu ra Bwana na afukize uvumba
There was a large crowd outside praying at the time the incense was offered,Vikara wakathi wa kufukiza uvumba urihofika aryahu at'u angine osi makala manavoya ko ndze ya haryahu hat'u haeri
Then on the right side of the incense table an angel of the Lord came and stood before Zechariah,Ndo hachambola malaika na akikala aungerere luhande lwa mukono wa kurya wa cho kijaja cha kufukizira uvumba
When he saw the angel Zechariah was upset and very afraid,K'uzhona zho Zakaria arihomona ye malaika wangalala na akikwatya kwadzalwa ni woga
But the angel said to him Zechariah dont be afraid Your prayer has been heard by God Your wife Elizabeth will give birth to a baby boy and you will name him John,Kuona vizho ye malaika akimwamba Zakaria Usogohe Zakaria Kwani Mulungu adzasikira mavoyogo Mucheo Elizabeth'i andakuzhalira muthana na undamwiha Johana
You will be very happy and many others will share your joy over his birth,Mwana yuyu andihozhalwa undahenda raha kidza undanyeth'a na hatha anji angine mandahenda raha haho akizhalwa
He will be a great man for the Lord He will never drink wine or beer Even before he is born he will be filled with the Holy Spirit,Kwani mwana yuyu andakala mut'u mubomu mbere za Bwana kidza bai asinwe divai hedu kinywaji chochosi cha kurezha hatha vichache na andadzala Roho Mweri hatha kabila k'adzazhalwa
John will help many people of Israel return to the Lord their God,Mut'u yuyu andaahendya Aiziraeli anji mamuuyire Bwana Mulungu wao
John himself will go ahead of the Lord and make people ready for his coming He will be powerful like Elijah and will have the same spirit He will make peace between fathers and their children He will cause people who are not obeying God to change and start thinking the way they should,Kidza andamuthangulia Mulungu kahi za roho na nguvu here arizhokala Elija Na lola andaahendya o ano biat'u madziomena ana ao maahendze na andaagaluza o at'u masiosikira makale na ulachu dza uryahu wa at'u enye hachi Mut'u yuyu andamuthayarishira Mulungu at'u
Zechariah said to the angel How can I know that what you say is true I am an old man and my wife is also old,Zakaria arihosikira vizho akimuza ye malaika akiamba Ut'u uno be nindamanyadze ni wa jeri Kwani mimi nidzakala muthumia na muchangu naye adzathumika
The angel answered him I am Gabriel the one who always stands ready before God He sent me to talk to you and to tell you this good news,Ye malaika akimudzigidzya akiamba Mimi ni Gaburieli nikalaye mbere za Mulungu kumuhumikira nami nidzahumwa kwako nidze nikwambire uvoro uu udzo
Now listen You will not be able to talk until the day when these things happen You will lose your speech because you did not believe what I told you But everything I said will really happen,Ela ko udzawona uu uvoro wangu uriwo undathimira kwa wakathiwe kukala si wa jeri na lola kwa kukala k'ugakuluhirire maneno gangu be undafungika sauthi muhaka siku gandihothimira gaga nidzigokwambira
Outside the people were still waiting for Zechariah They were surprised that he was staying so long in the Temple,Wakathi uu o at'u mariokala manamuthariza Zakaria ambole madangana kwa viryahu arizhokala anatoa zhomu mo Hekaluni
Then Zechariah came outside but he could not speak to them So the people knew that he had seen a vision inside the Temple He was not able to speak so he could only make signs to the people,Bai arihombola akikala k'adima kunena nao bule na o at'u marihoona vizho makimanya kare kukala suthi akale adzaona maono mo Hekaluni Vikara kwa kukala were k'adima kunena wahenda kuap'a mivano na yo mikonoye
When his time of service was finished he went home,Zakaria waenderera kukala kahi za ro Hekalu muhaka zamuye ikigoma ndo akidziudzya kwakwe mudzini
Later Zechariahs wife Elizabeth became pregnant So she did not go out of her house for five months She said,K'avitoere Elizabeth'i mukaza ye Zakaria akifunga mimba Bai arihokala adzafunga mimba k'ambolere mo nyumbani hatha miezi mitsano pu
Look what the Lord has done for me He decided to help me Now people will stop thinking there is something wrong with me,Kidza akiamba Bwana adzanaviza kahi za ngira ii Lola adzaniusira kusholerwa nirikokala nikisholerwa
The angel came to her and said Greetings The Lord is with you you are very special to him,Kwa vizho ye malaika achenda kwa Maryamu na akiamba K'una ut'u Mulungu a hamwenga nawe uwe kidza adzakuhasa zhomu sana

She went into Zechariahs house and greeted Elizabeth,Naye wakwenda hatha mudzini kwa Zakaria na achendamulamusa Elizabeth'i

The people said to Elizabeth But no one in your family has that name,O at'u makimwamba Mbona kaheri samba k'ahana mukwenu yoyosi aifwaye Johana
Then they made signs to his father What would you like to name him,Ndo makiona baha mamuze ye bimut'u chamba angahendza ye mwana agerwe dzina rani Kwa vizho makimuza kwa kuhenda kuhumira mivano
Zechariah asked for something to write on Then he wrote His name is John Everyone was surprised,Bai ye bimut'u akilagiza agerwe kibao cha kuorera na ye here kitai akiora vivi Dzinare nde Johana O at'u osi machangalala kamare
Then Zechariah could talk again and he began praising God,Na haho henye sauthiye ikirichirwa na akikala anadima kunena kaheri naye akimulika Mulungu
And all their neighbors were afraid In all the hill country of Judea people continued talking about these things,O majirani ao osi makihondoka na lola kahi za mirima yosi ya Judea be were kila mut'u uvoro ni uu
Everyone who heard about these things wondered about them They thought What will this child be They could see that the Lord was with him,Kila mut'u ariyesikira uvoro uu wadziuza kimoyo-moyo na kuamba Muhoho yuno andakala muhoho wa samupuli yani Kwani were vi lwazu kamare kukala nguvu za Bwana zi hamwenga naye
Then Zechariah Johns father was filled with the Holy Spirit and told the people a message from God,Gonya Zakaria babaye Johana wadzalwa ni Roho Mweri na akinena maneno gaga ga Mulungu akiamba
Praise to the Lord God of Israel He has come to help his people and has given them freedom,Naalikwe Bwana Mulungu wa Iziraeli kwa kukala iye wakudzaalola at'ue na kuakombola
He has given us a powerful Savior from the family of his servant David,Kidza wahurehera mwokoli mwenye nguvu wa kula kahi za lukolo lwa muhumikiwe Daudi
This is what he promised through his holy prophets long ago,Here arizholaga haho kapindi kukirira na maneno gao o manabii a kwakwe aeri
He will save us from our enemies and from the power of all those who hate us,kwamba huthie kula kwa mahadhui ehu na kula kwa at'u osi madziohumena
God said he would show mercy to our fathers,Bai anaaonera mbazi o akare ehu na kidza anathimiza kilaganeche kieri
Now you little boy will be called a prophet of the Most High God,Na uwe mwanangu bai undaifwa nabii wa Mulungu ariye dzulu ya zhosi kwani undamuthangulia Bwana kwamba umutengezere ngiraye
You will make his people understand that they will be saved by having their sins forgiven,na kidza uamanyise o at'u kukala Mulungu andaasamehe dambi zao na kwa ngira ii mandaokolwa
With the loving mercy of our God a new day from heaven will shine on us,Kwani Mulungu wehu ana mbazi nyinji na kukirira kwa zizo mbazize dzuwa ra wokolwi rindahumbolera kula mulunguni

The devil finished tempting Jesus in every way and went away to wait until a better time,Bai Shethani arihogonya kumujeza Jesu kahi za ngira zosini waandza kumuhaukira kwandza kwa muda
Jesus went back to Galilee with the power of the Spirit Stories about him spread all over the area around Galilee,Badaye Jesu wauya kahi za jimbo ra Galilaya na uvorowe ukivuma kahi za sehemu zosi zidzizohakana na jimbo riro na lola nguvu za Roho Mweri zere zi hamwenga naye
He began to teach in the synagogues and everyone praised him,Bai Jesu akifundisha kahi za go masinagogi kuko na kila mut'u akikala anamulika
Jesus traveled to Nazareth the town where he grew up On the Sabbath day he went to the synagogue as he always did He stood up to read,Badaye achenda ko Nazareth'i ambawo ndo mudzi ariorerwa Vikara irihofika siku ya Sabato achenda kahi za sinagogi here garizhokala mazowerage na akiungarara kwamba ashome Maoro
The book of Isaiah the prophet was given to him He opened the book and found the place where this is written,Bai akigolozerwa chuwo cha nabii Isaya K'uzhona zho akikihala akikivugula na akipata hat'u harihoorwa vivi
The Spirit of the Lord is on me,Roho wa Bwana a hamwenga nami
and to announce that the time has come for the Lord to show his kindness,na kidza niamanyise at'u
Jesus closed the book gave it back to the helper and sat down As everyone in the synagogue watched him closely,Bai Jesu arihogonya kushoma wahala cho chuwo akikikundza t'ot'ot'o gonya akimugolozeza ye muhumiki na achendakeresi Bai kila mut'u kahi za ro sinagogi wamuthema dzitso ye Jesu
he began to speak to them He said While you heard me reading these words just now they were coming true,Ndo Jesu akiambira Vivi rero be gaga Maoro gaga gadzathimira here mudzizhogasikira nikigashoma
Everyone there said good things about Jesus They were amazed to hear him speak such wonderful words They said How is this possible Isnt he Josephs son,Bai kila mut'u wanena madzo dzuluze na kidza were manangalazwa ni go maneno madzo garigombola kanwani mwakwe Na lola makikwatya kuuzana-uzana na kuamba Vino akale yuno si mwana wa Josefu bule yuno
Jesus said to them I know you will tell me the old saying Doctor heal yourself You want to say We heard about the things you did in Capernaum Do those same things here in your own hometown,Jesu akiambira Vivi jeri wenye namanya mundanambira ii ndhumo ii iambayo Muganga dzihoze mwenye Kidza garyahu hurigosikira wagahenda kuko Kaperinaumu be gahende hatha haha kahi za mudzi wa kwako wenye
Then he said The truth is a prophet is not accepted in his own hometown,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Namwambira ujeri wenye k'akuna nabii ahendzwaye kwao
During the time of Elijah it did not rain in Israel for three and a half years There was no food anywhere in the whole country There were many widows in Israel during that time But the fact is Elijah was sent to none of those widows in Israel He was sent only to a widow in Zarephath a town in Sidon,Ko kunena wo ujeri wenye be kahi za ts'i ya Iziraeli were kuna ache magungu anji enye kahi za uryahu wakathi wa Elija Kahi za wakathi uwo vula yazuliwa kunya kwa muda wa miaka mihahu na nusu k'uzhona zho kukihenda ndzala ya kitai kahi za ts'i ndzima
But the fact is Elijah was sent to none of those widows in Israel He was sent only to a widow in Zarephath a town in Sidon,Ela ko Elija k'ahumwirwe kwa yoyosi kahi za ao hat'u ha vizho akihumwa kwa mwanamuche gungu kuko Sareputa kahi za ts'i ya Sidoni
And there were many people with leprosy living in Israel during the time of the prophet Elisha But none of them were healed the only one was Naaman And he was from the country of Syria not Israel,Visithoshe kahi za ts'i ya Iziraeli were kuna at'u anji enye mahana kahi za wakathi wa nabii Elisha ela ko k'ahana mungine yoyosi ariyehozwa hasihokala Namani wa kula ts'i ya Siria
When the people in the synagogue heard this they were very angry,Bai o at'u mariokala kahi za ro sinagogi marihosikira maneno gaga matsukirwa jeri-jeri
They got up and forced Jesus to go out of town Their town was built on a hill They took Jesus to the edge of the hill to throw him off,nao ngh'o makirungarara na makimuchuchuza Jesu muhaka ko muviryani kwa wo mudzi uriwo were wajengwa kirimani Nao ndoo naye vivi muhaka hat'u mutharamukoni ili mamusukume avoromoke ko ts'ini
But he walked through the middle of the crowd and went away,Ela Jesu akikira kahikahi zao na achenda na shuhulize
Jesus went to Capernaum a city in Galilee On the Sabbath day he taught the people,Gonya Jesu akitharamuka kahi za mudzi wa Kaperinaumu ambawo u kahi za jimbo ra Galilaya Bai kahi za siku ya Sabato akikwatya kufundisha o at'u
They were amazed at his teaching because he spoke with authority,Na lola o at'u mangalazwa zhomu ni go mafundishoge kwa kukala iye were ananena na wadimi
In the synagogue there was a man who had an evil spirit from the devil inside him The man shouted loudly,Vikara mumo kahi za ro sinagogi were muna mut'u ariyepagawa ni p'ep'o Bai mut'u yuyu wapiga k'ululu here adimazho akiamba
Jesus of Nazareth What do you want with us Did you come here to destroy us I know who you areGods Holy One,Unani naswi we Jesu wa Nazareth'i Vidze udzire uhunonge-nonge Ninamanya uwe u h'ani Uwe u Mweringwa wa Mulungu
But Jesus warned the evil spirit to stop He said Be quiet Come out of the man The evil spirit threw the man down on the ground in front of everyone Then the evil spirit left the man and did not hurt him,Kusikira vizho Jesu akimuchemera ye p'ep'o akimwamba Hedu nyamala kare na umwambole Bai ye p'ep'o akimupiga chavu ye mut'u mbere za o at'u osi na akimwambola hasiho kumulumiza hat'u hohosi
The people were amazed They said to each other What does this mean With authority and power he commands evil spirits and they come out,O at'u osi marihoona vizho mangalala na makiuzana-uzana makiamba Gano ni maneno garigodze gano Kwa kuhumira nguvu na wadimi anaachemera p'ep'o mambole nao manambola jeri
And so the news about Jesus spread to every place in the whole area,Bai uvoro wa Jesu watsamuka kila hat'u kahi za lalo riro
Jesus left the synagogue and went to Simonshouse Simons motherinlaw was very sick She had a high fever They asked Jesus to do something to help her,Badaye Jesu wambola mo sinagogini achenda hatha nyumbani kwa Simoni Vikara kuko mutsedza wa Simoni wa kiche were ana homa kali bai o at'u makimuvoya Jesu amwavize
He stood very close to her and ordered the sickness to go away The sickness left her and she got up and began serving them,Ndo Jesu achenda na akizama akirichemera ro homa naro rikiricha kare naye akiungarara mara mwenga akiahikirahikira
When the sun went down the people brought their sick friends to Jesus They had many different kinds of sicknesses Jesus laid his hands on each sick person and healed them all,Bai dzuwa ririhokala rinapothoka at'u osi mariokala mana akongo ao a kila namuna mamurehera Jesu naye akiaikira mikono osi akiahoza
Demons came out of many people The demons shouted You are the Son of God But Jesus gave a strong command for the demons not to speak because they knew he was the Messiah,Hatha p'ep'o nao maambola at'u anji kuno manapiga k'ululu na kuamba Uwe u Mwana wa Mulungu Ela Jesu akiachemera na k'aap'ere kadzanya ka kunena kwa kukala o p'ep'o mere manamanya kukala iye nde Masihi
The next day Jesus went to a place to be alone The people looked for him When they found him they tried to stop him from leaving,Bai kurihocha Jesu wambola wo mudzi na achenda kut'u k'anda kuriko k'akuna at'u Ndo at'u makikwatya kumudengereka nao marihofika kuko arikokala majeza kumubembeleza ili asiahaukire
But he said to them I must tell the Good News about Gods kingdom to other towns too This is why I was sent,Ela Jesu akiambira Mimi suthi nihubiri wo Uvoro Udzo wa uthawali wa Mulungu kwa yo midzi mingine nayo kwani vizho ndo virizhohenda nihumwe
Then Jesus told the Good News in the synagogues in Judea,Bai Jesu waenderera kuhubiri kahi za masinagogi ga Judea ndzima
As Jesus stood beside Lake Galileea crowd of people pushed to get closer to him and to hear the teachings of God,Siku mwenga Jesu were aimire k'anda-k'anda za ro ziya ra Genezarethi kuno adzazungulukwa ni rikundi ribomu ra at'u mario were manasirikiza neno ra Mulungu
Jesus saw two boats at the shore of the lake The fishermen were washing their nets,Bai ariholola akiona madau mairi gadzarichwa ho k'anda-k'anda ya ro ziya O avuvi enye were madzakwendagesa vimia zhao
Jesus got into the boat that belonged to Simon He asked Simon to push off a little from the shore Then he sat down in the boat and taught the people on the shore,Jesu akikwera mwenga kahi za go madau Riro dau arirokwera were ni ra Simoni Bai Jesu akimwamba Simoni arisukume mo ziyani vichache virihokala vidzahendwa Jesu wakeresi mo dauni na akikwatya kuafundisha o at'u
When Jesus finished speaking he said to Simon Take the boat into the deep water If all of you will put your nets into the water you will catch some fish,Arihokala adzagonya kunena wamwamba Simoni Simoni sukuma riri dau muhaka rifike ko kwenye madzi manji gonya mutsuhe zho vimia zhenu mugwire makumba
Simon answered Master we worked hard all night trying to catch fish and caught nothing But you say I should put the nets into the water so I will,Simoni akimudzigidzya akiamba Bwana At'u siswi fudzachesa kuvuha tha ngh'aa na k'afugwirire chochosi ela kwa udzaamba be nindatsuha zho vimia
The fishermen put their nets into the water Their nets were filled with so many fish that they began to break,Na lola marihohenda vizho magwira makumba manji zhomu hatha zho vimia vikikala vinakwatya kutharuka
They called to their friends in the other boat to come and help them The friends came and both boats were filled so full of fish that they were almost sinking,Marihoona vizho makiatsuhira mikono aryahu andziyao mariokala kahi za ro dau ringine madze maavize Bai marihokudza makidzaza go madau gosi mairi na makumba hatha go madau gakimala kuhoha
James and John the sons of Zebedee were amazed too James and John worked together with Simon,Hatha o ana a Zebedayo Jakobu na Johana ambao were mavuha na Simoni ao nao were madzamaka Bai Jesu akimwamba Simoni Usogohe kwa kukala kula vivi rero undakala muvuhi wa at'u
The men brought their boats to the shore They left everything and followed Jesus,Bai machenda na go madau hatha ho k'anda-k'anda za ro ziya nao makiricha kila kit'u haho na makimuthuwa Jesu
One time Jesus was in a town where a very sick man lived This man was covered with leprosy When the man saw Jesus he bowed before Jesus and begged him Lord you have the power to heal me if you want,Siku mwenga Jesu arihokala a kahi za mudzi mumwenga hakudza mwanamulume ariyekala ana mahana mwiri muzima Bai arihomona Jesu wazama hatha usowe ukigut'a ts'i na akimuvoya akiamba Bwana ukihendza unadima ukanihoza
Jesus said I want to heal you Be healed Then he touched the man and immediately the leprosy disappeared,Jesu akigoloza mukono akimugut'a na akimwamba Ninahendza hola Na haho na haho kare go mahana gakimwangamika
Then Jesus said Dont tell anyone about what happened But go and let the priest look at youAnd offer a gift to God for your healing as Moses commanded This will show people that you are healed,Gonya Jesu akimukokot'era kukala asizhambire mut'u bule akimwamba Ela enda ukamwanyese mulombi gonya umboze sadaka ya ko kuholako here arizholagiza Musa ili kila mut'u amanye kukala udzahola jeri
But the news about Jesus spread more and more Many people came to hear him and to be healed of their sicknesses,Ela hatha hamwenga na vizho wo uvoro dzulu za Jesu wakaza kutsamuka kila hat'u na makundi mabomu ga at'u gachendamusirikiza na kuhozwa makongo gao
Jesus often went away to other places to be alone so that he could pray,Ela Jesu were akaahaukira na kwenda hat'u k'anda h'akeye kwendavoya
One day Jesus was teaching the people The Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there too They had come from every town in Galilee and Judea and from Jerusalem The Lord was giving Jesus the power to heal people,Vikara siku mwenga Jesu were anafundisha bai haho hakikala hana Mafarisayo na alimu a Sheria mario were makeresi haho At'u aa were angine madzalaa kahi za kila kadzidzi ka jimbo ra Galilaya na jimbo ra Judea na angine were madzalaa mudzi wa Jerusalemu Bai nguvu za Mulungu were zi hamwenga na Jesu kuhoza akongo
There was a man who was paralyzed and some other men were carrying him on a mat They tried to bring him and put him down before Jesus,K'uzhona zho hakidza anaalume madzamutsukula mut'u wa kuholoza kitandani Bai makijeza kwenda naye mo ndani ya nyumba kwamba mamuhambalaze mbere za Jesu
But there were so many people that they could not find a way to Jesus So they went up on the roof and lowered the crippled man down through a hole in the ceiling They lowered the mat into the room so that the crippled man was lying before Jesus,Ela kwa wo unji wa at'u mariokala kahi za yo nyumba makosa ngira ya kwangirira naye mumo ndani Ndo makikwera hatha ko dzulu ya nyumba makivomola go mawe na makipata mwanya makimutharamusha ye mut'u na cho kitandache muhaka ho kahikahi za ro kundi ra at'u naho were ni ho mbere za Jesu henye
Jesus saw how much faith they had and said to the sick man Friend your sins are forgiven,Bai Jesu arihoona ro kuluhiro rao wamwamba ye mut'u Dambizo zidzasamehewa musena
The Jewish teachers of the law and the Pharisees thought to themselves Who is this man who dares to say such things What an insult to God No one but God can forgive sins,Kusikira vizho o Mafarisayo na alimu a Sheria makikwatya kudziuza kimoyo-moyo makiamba Mwenye ni h'ani yuno anenaye kufuru namuna ino Vidze hana mungine adimaye kusamehe dambi isihokala Mulungu h'akeye
But Jesus knew what they were thinking and said Why do you have these questions in your minds,Bai Jesu arihogamanya go maswali gao akiuza akiamba Kwanoni munadziuza maswali
The Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins But how can I prove this to you Maybe you are thinking it was easy for me to say Your sins are forgiven Theres no proof that it really happened But what if I say to the man Stand up and walk Then you will be able to see that I really have this power So Jesus said to the paralyzed man I tell you stand up Take your mat and go home,Vidze virizho rahisi ni hizho Ni kumwamba mut'u Udzasamehewa dambizo hedu ni kumwamba Uka wanende
Everyone was completely amazed and began to praise God They were filled with great respect for Gods power They said Today we saw amazing things,Na lola kila mut'u wangalala na akimulika Mulungu Nao o at'u ao madzalwa ni woga na makiamba H'aa rero fudzaona kitai
After this Jesus went out and saw a tax collector sitting at his place for collecting taxes His name was Levi Jesus said to him Follow me,Bai bada ya maut'u gago Jesu wambola ko ndze ya wo mudzi kuko akimona muthozi mumwenga wa kodi ariyekala anaifwa Lawi akeresi kahi za ofisi ya kodi Jesu akimwamba Nithuwa
Levi got up left everything and followed Jesus,Lawi akiricha kila kit'u akirungarara akimuthuwa Jesu
Then Levi gave a big dinner at his house for Jesus At the table there were many tax collectors and some other people too,Badaye ye Lawi achendamuusira ujeni ubomu ye Jesu ko kwakwe nyumbani na kundi bomu ra athozi a kodi andziye hamwenga na at'u angine makudzarya hamwenga nao
But the Pharisees and those who taught the law for the Pharisees began to complain to the followers of Jesus Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and other sinners,Bai o Mafarisayo na alimu ao a Sheria marihoona vizho makikwatya kuanung'unikira o anafundzi a Jesu na kuamba Mbona munarya na kunwa na athozi a kodi hamwenga na at'u enye dambi
Jesus answered them It is the sick people who need a doctor not those who are healthy,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Mukongo nde mwenye haja na muganga ela muzima k'ana haja na muganga bule
I have not come to ask good people to change I have come to ask sinners to change the way they live,Mimi nakudzaaiha enye dambi mathubu sidzireaiha enye hachi
They said to Jesus Johns followers often fast and pray the same as the followers of the Pharisees But your followers eat and drink all the time,Gonya at'u angine makimuza Jesu makiamba Mbona anafundzi a Johana na anafundzi a Mafarisayo mara kwa mara manafunga na kuvoya ela o a kwako kazi yao ni kurya na kunwa
Jesus said to them At a wedding you cant ask the friends of the bridegroom to be sad and fast while he is still with them,Jesu akiamba Vidze munadima kuahendya ajeni a harusini makafunga kala ye bwana harusi manaye haho
But the time will come when the groom will be taken away from them Then his friends will fast,Ela siku zinadza ambazo ye bwana harusi andauswa kahikahi zao na wakathi uwo ukifika mandafunga
Jesus told them this story No one takes cloth off a new coat to cover a hole in an old coat That would ruin the new coat and the cloth from the new coat would not be the same as the old cloth,Gonya Jesu akiambozera fumbo riri akiamba K'ahana atosaye kiraka kula kwa nguwo mbisha na akachangiza kahi za nguwo ya kapindi Mana mut'u akihenda vizho iryahu nguwo mbisha andakala adzayomola na hatha kiryahu kiraka k'akindatsomana na yo nguwo ya kapindi bule
Also no one ever pours new wine into old wineskins The new wine would break them The wine would spill out and the wineskins would be ruined,Kidza k'ahana mut'u adimaye kwangiza divai mbisha kahi za viriba zha kapindi Kwani akihenda vizho yo divai mbisha indavipashula zho viriba Bai zho viriba vindakala vidzanongeka na yo divai nayo indakala idzamwagika
You always put new wine into new wineskins,Ela divai mbisha suthi yangizwe kahi za viriba visha
No one who drinks old wine wants new wine They say The old wine is just fine,K'amuona bai k'ahana anwaye divai ya kapindi gonya akathamani kunwa yo mbisha nayo kwani andaamba Ii ya kapindi ndo mbidzo
One time on a Sabbath day Jesus was walking through some grain fields His followers picked the grain rubbed it in their hands and ate it,Siku mwenga iriyokala ni siku ya Sabato Jesu were anakira na anafundzie kahi za minda ya ngano K'uzhona zho aryahu anafundzie makikwatya kuhuta go masuche ga yo ngano na kugahulula na kurya
Some Pharisees said Why are you doing that It is against the Law of Moses to do that on the Sabbath day,Ela Mafarisayo angine marihoona vizho makiauza makiamba Mbona munahenda ut'u uriwo k'auhendwa siku ya Sabato
Jesus answered You have read about what David did when he and the people with him were hungry,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Muthawali Daudi wahendadze harya arihokala iye na o at'u ariokala nao mana ndzala Hedu k'amudzavishoma
David went into Gods house He took the bread that was offered to God and ate it And he gave some of the bread to the people with him This was against the Law of Moses which says that only the priests can eat that bread,Iye Daudi wangira kahi za nyumba ya Mulungu na akihala yo mikahe ya sadaka akiirya gonya akiap'a aryahu andziye nao makirya vingahokala kulingana na sheria were ni alombi h'akiyao ndo madimao kuirya
Then Jesus said to the Pharisees The Son of Man is Lord over the Sabbath day,Gonya Jesu akisindikiza na kuamba Bai ye Mwana wa Mudamu nde Bwana wa yo siku ya Sabato
On another Sabbath day Jesus went into the synagogue and taught the people A man with a crippled right hand was there,Badaye siku nyingine yenye ya Sabato Jesu wakwenda kahi za sinagogi na akifundisha Bai mumo sinagogini mwere muna mut'u ariyeholoza mukono wa kurya
The teachers of the law and the Pharisees were watching Jesus closely They were waiting to see if he would heal on the Sabbath day They wanted to see him do something wrong so that they could accuse him,Na o Mafarisayo na alimu a Sheria mere ma haho nao were mamalacho ni chausa cha kumushithakira kwa vizho makimulolera maone chamba andamuhoza kahi za yo siku ya Sabato makamushithaki
But Jesus knew what they were thinking He said to the man with the crippled hand Get up and stand here where everyone can see The man got up and stood there,Ela Jesu akigamanya kare go maazo gao bai akimwamba ye mut'u wa mukono wa kuholoza Ungarara udze uime haha kahikahi hedu Bai ye mut'u akiungarara akidzaima haho
Then Jesus said to them I ask you which is the right thing to do on the Sabbath day to do good or to do evil Is it right to save a life or to destroy one,Ndo Jesu akiauza akiamba Namala munambire kisheria virizho karakara kuhendwa kahi za siku ya Sabato ni hizho Vidze ni kuhenda madzo hedu mai Vidze mut'u ni athizhe hedu ni alage
Jesus looked around at all of them and then said to the man Hold out your hand The man held out his hand and it was healed,Bai Jesu akialola osi gonya akimwamba ye mut'u Goloza wo mukonowo hedu Ye mut'u akihenda vizho zhenye naye wo mukonowe ukiuyat'o kamare
The Pharisees and the teachers of the law got so mad they couldnt think straight They talked to each other about what they could do to Jesus,Ela o alimu a Sheria na o Mafarisayo marihosikira gago matsukirwa vii-vii makiuzana o enye kwa enye na kuamba Yuno be fundamuhendadze
A few days later Jesus went out to a mountain to pray He stayed there all night praying to God,Bai kahi za siku zizo Jesu wauka na achenda kut'u mirimani achendavoya Naye wachesa kumuvoya Mulungu kuko hatha ngh'aa
The next morning he called his followers He chose twelve of them and called them apostles These are the ones he chose,Ndo kurihokala kudzacha akiaiha o anafundzie na akitsagula kumi na airi kahi zao na akiap'a dzina ra ahumwi
Simon Jesus named him Peter,Bai ao arioatsagula were ni Simoni ariye Jesu wamup'a dzina ra P'et'ero na nduguye ariyeifwa Anderea Angine were ni Jakobu na Johana na Filipu na Bath'olomayo
Matthew,na Math'ayo na T'omasi na Jakobu mwana wa Alifayo na Simoni ariyeifwa Muhehezi
Judas the son of James,na Juda mwana wa Jakobu na Juda Isikariote ambaye badaye wakudzamusaliti Jesu
Jesus and the apostles came down from the mountain Jesus stood on a flat place A large crowd of his followers was there Also there were many people from all around Judea Jerusalem and the seacoast cities of Tyre and Sidon,Badaye Jesu watharamuka hamwenga nao na achendaima hat'u hariho ha th'ambarare Bai haho hakikala hadzakundzumanyika kundi bomu ra o anafundzie na at'u angine anji zhomu mario angine were madzambola Jerusalemu na sehemu nyingine zosi za Judea na angine were madzambola p'wani za midzi ya Tiro na Sidoni
They all came to hear Jesus teach and to be healed of their sicknesses He healed the people who were troubled by evil spirits,At'u aa makudza kwamba mamusirikize Jesu na mahozwe makongo gao Na ao mario were manabudzywa ni p'ep'o mahozwa
Everyone was trying to touch him because power was coming out from him Jesus healed them all,Na kidza o at'u osi majeza here madimazho mamugut'e Jesu kwa kukala nguvu were zikambola ko kwakwe na kuhoza at'u osi
Jesus looked at his followers and said,Gonya Jesu akialola o anafundzie na akiamba
Great blessings belong to you who are hungry now,Baha ninwi murio vivi kare muna ndzala
People will hate you because you belong to the Son of Man They will make you leave their group They will insult you They will think it is wrong even to say your name When these things happen know that great blessings belong to you,Baha ninwi at'u makimumena na kumuthenga-thenga
You can be happy then and jump for joy because you have a great reward in heaven The ancestors of those people did the same things to the prophets,Bai maut'u gago gandihomudzirira be hendani raha na muguluke-guluke na raha kwa kukala zawadi yenu ni bomu kuko mulunguni Mana vizho ndo o akare enu marizhoahendera o manabii ho kapindi
But how bad it will be for you rich people,Ela shauri yenu ninwi murio ashaha

How bad it is when everyone says nothing but good about you Just look at the false prophets Their ancestors always said good things about them,Shauri yenu o at'u osi makimbola na kunena madzo-madzo dzulu zenu
But I say to you people who are listening to me love your enemies Do good to those who hate you,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Ela namwambira vivi ninwi murio munasirikiza ahendzeni mahadhui enu kidza ahendereni madzo aryahu mario madzamumena
Ask God to bless the people who ask for bad things to happen to you Pray for the people who are mean to you,Avoyereni madzo ao mario manamuvoyera mai na o mario manamuhendera mai avoyereni

A good tree does not produce bad fruit And a bad tree does not produce good fruit,Mana k'akuna muhi mudzo uzhalao matunda mai hedu muhi mui uzhalao matunda madzo
Every tree is known by the kind of fruit it produces You wont find figs on thorny weeds And you cant pick grapes from thornbushes,Kwani kila muhi unamanyikana kwa go matunda uzhalago At'u k'amahuta t'ini kula kahi za mihi ya miya hedu kuhuta zabibu kula kahi za vihundu zha miya
Good people have good things saved in their hearts Thats why they say good things But those who are evil have hearts full of evil and thats why they say things that are evil What people say with their mouths comes from what fills their hearts,Mut'u mudzo nikuzhala madzo kula kahi za akibaye mbidzo iriyo moyoni mwakwe Mut'u mui naye nikuzhala mai kula kahi za akibaye mbii Mana kanwa ka mut'u kanena garyahu gadzigowadzala moyowe
Why do you call me Lord Lord but you dont do what I say,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Mbona munaniha Bwana Bwana na kuno go ninenago k'amugahenda
The people who come to me who listen to my teachings and obey themI will show you what they are like,Hedu humani nimwambire viryahu mut'u yuyahu asikiraye maneno gangu na kugahenda arizho
They are like a man building a house He digs deep and builds his house on rock The floods come and the water crashes against the house But the flood cannot move the house because it was built well,Mut'u wa samupuli ii adzahalana na muaki wa nyumba ariyetsimba musinji mure na akiaka nyumbaye dzulu za mwamba K'uzhona zho muretho urihokudza ukiisukuma yo nyumba ela hatha kusumba kwenye k'aisumbire mana yere yaakwat'o
But the people who hear my words and do not obey are like a man who builds a house without preparing a foundation When the floods come the house falls down easily and is completely destroyed,Ela bai mut'u agasikiraye maneno gangu na kutsagathuwa adzahalana na mut'u ariyeaka nyumbaye ho ts'i hasiho musinji Vikara wakathi muretho urihokudza thu nyumba iyo ikigwa kare na kubandikakwe kwakala kubomu
Jesus finished saying all these things to the people Then he went into Capernaum,Bai Jesu arihogonya kunena maut'u gago arigokala anaambira at'u wauka na achenda Kaperinaumu
In Capernaum there was an army officer He had a servant who was very sick he was near death The officer loved the servant very much,Vikara kuko Kaperinaumu kwere kuna mubomu mumwenga wa jeshi ra Kirumi ariyekala na muhumiki amuhendzaye jeri-jeri Bai muhumiki yuyu were ni mukongo hatha k'amanyikana kuthia
When he heard about Jesus he sent some older Jewish leaders to him He wanted the men to ask Jesus to come and save the life of his servant,K'uzhona zho yuyahu mubomu wa jeshi arihosikira uvoro wa Jesu wahuma athumia a Kiyahudi mende makamwambe adze amuhoze ye muhumiki
The men went to Jesus They begged Jesus to help the officer They said This officer is worthy to have your help,Bai marihofika kwa Jesu mamusitira makiamba Mut'u yuyu ana hachi ya uwe umwavize
He loves our people and he built the synagogue for us,mana anaahendza o at'u ehu na kidza nde ariyehuakira Sinagogi rehu
So Jesus went with them He was coming near the officers house when the officer sent friends to say Lord you dont need to do anything special for me I am not good enough for you to come into my house,Kwa vizho Jesu achenda hamwenga nao Ela arihofika hehi na yo nyumba ye mubomu wa jeshi akihuma asenae makamwambe Jesu vivi Bwana usidzibudzye bule mana mimi sivirya kukala uwe udze wangire nyumbani mwangu
That is why I did not come to you myself You need only to give the order and my servant will be healed,ndosa sidzire kwako mimi mwenye Ela nena neno na muhumiki wangu andahola
I know this because I am a man under the authority of other men And I have soldiers under my authority I tell one soldier Go and he goes And I tell another soldier Come and he comes And I say to my servant Do this and my servant obeys me,Kwani mimi nami naikwa ts'ini za abomu angu kidza nina shikari mario ts'ini zangu Nikimwamba mumwenga Enda hat'u hasiku anenda Na yoyosi nindiyemwamba Ndzo anadza Nikimwamba muhumiki wangu Henda ut'u usiku anauhenda
When Jesus heard this he was amazed He turned to the people following him and said I tell you this is the most faith I have seen anywhere even in Israel,Jesu arihosikira maneno gago wangalazwa ni ye mut'u na akigalukira ro kundi ra at'u mariokala manenda osi akiamba Ninamwambira kukala sidzangwe kuona mut'u mwenye kuluhiro dza riri hatha kahi za ts'i ya Iziraeli
The group that was sent to Jesus went back to the house There they found that the servant was healed,Bai aryahu at'u mario were madzahumwa mauya ko nyumbani na machendamuthekeza ye muhumiki k'ana ut'u
The next day Jesus and his followers went to a town called Nain A big crowd was traveling with them,K'avitoere Jesu achenda kahi za mudzi uifwao Naini iye hamwenga na anafundzie na kundi bomu ra at'u
When Jesus came near the town gate he saw some people carrying a dead body It was the only son of a woman who was a widow Walking with her were many other people from the town,Bai marihofika hehi na wo muvirya wa wo mudzi lola makithunganana na at'u mario were madzatsukula maithi Mut'u yuyu were wazhalwa iye thu na mameye were ni gungu Bai kundi bomu ra at'u kula kahi za wo mudzi were ri hamwenga na yuyahu mwanamuche
When the Lord saw the woman he felt very sorry for her and said Dont cry,Bwana Jesu arihomona ye mameye ye mufwa moyowe wamutika madzi na akimwamba Usirire m'ama
He walked to the open coffin and touched it The men who were carrying the coffin stopped Jesus spoke to the dead son Young man I tell you get up,Gonya akigasongerera garyahu machera na akigagut'a na aryahu at'u mario were madzagatsukula makiima thii Jesu akiamba We muthana hedu ungarara
Then the boy sat up and began to talk and Jesus gave him back to his mother,Lola ye mufwa waungarara na akikeresi na akikwatya kunena bai Jesu akimuhala na akimulazha kwa mameye
Everyone was filled with fear They began praising God and said A great prophet is here with us and God is taking care of his people,Kuona vizho o at'u osini mariokala haho madzalwa ni woga na makimulika Mulungu na kuamba Nabii mubomu adzafwambolera Kidza makiamba Mulungu adzire aokola at'ue
This news about Jesus spread all over Judea and to all the other places around there,Bai uvoro uu dzulu za Jesu watsamuka kahi za ts'i yosi ya Judea na hatha kungine-kungine
Johns followers told him about all these things John called for two of his followers,Bai Johana achambirwa ni o anafundzie dzulu za maut'u gaga gosi Ndo akiiha anafundzie airi
He sent them to the Lord to ask Are you the one we heard was coming or should we wait for someone else,na akiahuma mende makamuze ye Bwana Jesu chamba nde iye aambwaye andakudza hedu seye matharize mungine
So the men came to Jesus They said John the Baptizer sent us to you with this question Are you the one who is coming or should we wait for someone else,Bai aryahu ahumwi marihofika kwa Jesu maamba Johana Mubat'izaji adzahuhuma hudze hukuze chamba ndiwe ye mut'u aambwaye andakudza hedu siwe hutharize mungine
Right then Jesus healed many people of their sicknesses and diseases He healed those who had evil spirits and made many who were blind able to see again,Na lola wakathi uwo wenye Jesu were anahoza at'u anji mariokala ni akongo manalumwa na kidza wahoza anji mario were mana p'ep'o Jesu vizho waahendya at'u anji mario were ni vipofu madime kuona
Then he said to Johns followers Go tell John what you have seen and heard The blind can see The crippled can walk People with leprosy are healed The deaf can hear The dead are brought back to life And the Good News is being told to the poor,Kwa vizho akiadzigidzya o at'u mariokala madzahumwa ni Johana akiamba Uyani na mukamwambire Johana garyahu mudzigogaona na kugasikira kwamba vipofu manaona virema manazhogat'o at'u enye mahana manahozwa enye masikiro ga makoto manasikira nyufu zinafufulwa na Uvoro Udzo unaambirizwa at'u mario ni akiya
Great blessings belong to those who dont have a problem accepting me,Baha mut'u yuyahu ambaye mahendo gangu kwakwe k'agandakala kikwazo
When Johns followers left Jesus began talking to the people about John What did you people go out into the desert to see Someone who is weak like a stem of grassblowing in the wind,Bai bada ya aryahu at'u mario were madzahumwa ni Johana kuuka Jesu wakwatya kunena na riryahu kundi ra at'u dzulu za ye Johana akiamba Harya murihokwenda nyika were mudzakwendalolani Vidze were mudzakwendalola nyasi zifuswazo ni p'eho
Really what did you expect to see Someone dressed in fine clothes Of course not People who wear fancy clothes and live in luxury are all in kings palaces,Bai ikikala si vizho vikara were mudzakwendalolani Hedu were munalola mut'u adziyevwala nguwo mbidzo Hatha bule Mana at'u mavwalao nguwo za gali na kuishi maisha ga dzulu makala kahi za madzumba ga athawali
So what did you go out to see A prophet Yes John is a prophet But I tell you he is more than that,Vikara nambirani were mudzakwendalolani Were mudzakwendalola nabii Ee ni jeri namwambira kamare iye adzakira nabii iye wahumwa ni Mulungu adze anene dzulu za ye Masihi
This Scripture was written about him,Iye nde ariye Maoro gaorwa dzuluze kuamba Lola ninahuma mujumbe wangu mberezo andiyekutengezera ngirayo kimbere
I tell you no one ever born is greater than John But even the least important person in Gods kingdom is greater than John,Kunena wo ujeri kahi za anadamu osi be k'akuna mut'u ariye ni mubomu kuriko Johana Ela bai iye mut'u ariye nde muthithe kamare kahi za uthawali wa Mulungu be ni mubomu hatha kuriko iye Johana
When the people heard this they all agreed that Gods teaching was good Even the tax collectors agreed These were the people who were baptized by John,Lola o at'u osini na hatha o athozi a kodi mamusikira Johana Na ao bai ni aryahu ambao makubali kukala yo ngira ya Mulungu ni jeri kwa kukala were mabat'izwa ni Johana
But the Pharisees and experts in the law refused to accept Gods plan for themselves they did not let John baptize them,Ela o Mafarisayo na alimu a Sheria makahala mupango ario Mulungu waapangira na makikahala kubat'izwa ni Johana
What shall I say about the people of this time What can I compare them to What are they like,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Ano at'u a siku zino hatha be ndaahalanisha na noni Hatha madzahalana na noni ano
They are like children sitting in the marketplace One group of children calls to the other children and says,At'u aa madzahalana na ahoho mario makeresi sokoni manazaziga Kundi mwenga nikurambira ro ringine vivi Hudzamupigira kivoti nanwi k'amuvinire Hudzamuimbira wira wa hanga nanwi k'amuririre
John the Baptizer came and did not eat the usual food or drink wine And you say He has a demon inside him,Mana Johana Mubat'izaji arihokudza mut'u iye wakala k'arya hedu hatha kunwa divai ela ko mukiamba Ana p'ep'o
The Son of Man came eating and drinking And you say Look at him He eats too much and drinks too much wine He is a friend of tax collectors and other sinners,Mwana wa Mudamu arihokudza na akikala anarya na kunwa mukiamba Muloleni adzatona kidza ni murevi na anapatana na athozi a kodi na hatha at'u enye dambi
But wisdom is shown to be right by those who accept it,Ela bai ulachu wa Mulungu unamanyikana kala ni wa jeri kukirira kwa osi mario manaukuluhira
One of the Pharisees asked Jesus to eat with him Jesus went into the Pharisees house and took a place at the table,Vikara mut'u mumwenga ariye were ni Farisayo wamusunga Jesu ende akarye chakurya ko kwakwe nyumbani Bai Jesu achenda na achendakeresi ho chakuryani
There was a sinful woman in that town She knew that Jesus was eating at the Pharisees house So the woman brought some expensive perfume in an alabaster jar,Bai lola kahi za mudzi uwo were kunatoa mwanamuche ariyekala maishage ni ga dambi Vikara arihosikira kukala Jesu a kuko kwa ye Farisayo anarya chakurya wauka na achenda na ts'azi iriyotengezwa kula kwa iwe ra alabasita ya mafuha ga marashi
She stood at Jesus feet crying Then she began to wash his feet with her tears She dried his feet with her hair She kissed his feet many times and rubbed them with the perfume,Arihofika kuko akiima hehi na Jesu kuno anarira bai go matsozige gakidweka mo maguluni mwa Jesu Ye mwanamuche akigahangusa na zo nyereze akigadonera go maguluge kunyesa ishima gonya akigamwagira go marashi
When the Pharisee who asked Jesus to come to his house saw this he thought to himself If this man were a prophethe would know that the woman who is touching him is a sinner,Vikara yuyahu Farisayo ariyekala nde adzemusunga Jesu arihoona maut'u gago akinena kimoyo-moyo akiamba Kala mut'u yuyu ni nabii jeri akamanya kare kala iye adziyemugut'a ni h'ani na kidza ni mut'u wa samupuli yani akamanya kukala ni mudambi
In response Jesus said to the Pharisee Simon I have something to say to you,Ndo Jesu akimwamba ye Farisayo akiamba Simoni nina ut'u nimalao kukwambira Ye Farisayo akidzigidzya akiamba H'aya nambira mwalimu
Jesus said There were two men Both men owed money to the same banker One man owed him 500 silver coins The other man owed him 50 silver coins,Bai Jesu akiamba Kwereko at'u airi mario were manaiswa ni mut'u mumwenga ariyekala waakopesha Mumwenga were anaiswa dinarimagana matsano na ye mungine ye were anaiswa dinari mirongo mitsano
The men had no money so they could not pay their debt But the banker told the men that they did not have to pay him Which one of those two men will love him more,Vikara osini airi makishindwa ni kumuriha mana were k'amana kit'u Bai yuyahu ariyekala anaaisa akiona baha aasamehe H'aya unaona ni h'ani kahi za o airi ariye andamuhendza ye ariyeasamehe zaidhi
Simon answered I think it would be the one who owed him the most money,Ye Simoni akidzigidzya akiamba Naona ni yuyahu ariyesamehewa dheni bomu Jesu akimwamba U mujeri
Then he turned to the woman and said to Simon Do you see this woman When I came into your house you gave me no water for my feet But she washed my feet with her tears and dried my feet with her hair,Bai Jesu akigaluka akimulola ye mwanamuche na akimwamba ye Simoni Unamona yuno mwanamuche Nidzihokudza mumu mwako nyumbani k'unangizirire madzi ga kuoga maguluela yuno ye adzagalwanya magulu gangu na go matsozige gonya akagahangusa na zo nyereze
You did not greet me with a kiss but she has been kissing my feet since I came in,Nidzihongira haha k'unikaribishire kwa kunidonera ela yuno mwanamuche ye adzadonera magulu gangu hangu nidzihongirira haha
You did not honor me with oil for my head but she rubbed my feet with her sweetsmelling oil,Uwe k'unimwagirire mafuha ga kitswani ela yuno ye adzagamwagira magulu gangu marashi
I tell you that her many sins are forgiven This is clear because she showed great love People who are forgiven only a little will love only a little,Kwa ut'u uu bai namala nikwambe vivi gago mahendzo ga kwakwe mabomu be vinanyesa kamare kukala zo dambize nyinji zidzasamehewa Ela mut'u ariye adzasamehewa dambi ch'ach'e nde mwenye hendzo thithe
Then Jesus said to her Your sins are forgiven,Gonya Jesu akimwamba ye mwanamuche M'ama dambizo zidzasamehewa
The people sitting at the table began to think to themselves Who does this man think he is How can he forgive sins,K'uzhona zho aryahu ajeni angine mario were ma ho chakuryani makikwatya kuuzana-uzana na kuamba Ni h'ani yuno ariye anasamehe hatha dambi
Jesus said to the woman Because you believed you are saved from your sins Go in peace,Na Jesu akimwamba ye mwanamuche Kuluhiro ra kwako ridzakwakola h'aya enda na dheri
The next day Jesus traveled through some cities and small towns Jesus told the people a message from God the Good News about Gods kingdom The twelve apostles were with him,Bada ya gago Jesu wakwenda kuno na kuno kahi za midzi kuhubiri Uvoro Udzo wa uthawali wa Mulungu Naye were a hamwenga na aryahu ahumwie kumi na airi
There were also some women with him Jesus had healed these women of sicknesses and evil spirits One of them was Mary who was called Magdalene Seven demons had come out of her,na ano m'ama angine ambao were Jesu waamboza p'ep'o na kuahoza makongo gao Ano m'ama aa were ni Maryamu ariyekala anaifwa Magidalena ambaye were wambozwa p'ep'o afungahe ho nyuma-nyuma
Also with these women were Joanna the wife of Chuza the manager of Herods property Suzanna and many other women These women used their own money to help Jesus and his apostles,Joana ariye were ni mukaza Kuza iye Kuza were ni mwimirizi kahi za nyumba ya muthawali Herode na Suzana na ano m'ama angine anji Ano m'ama aa makala kazi yao ni kumboza vit'u zhao kwa ut'u wa kumwaviza Jesu hamwenga na anafundzie
A large crowd came together People came to Jesus from every town and he told them this story,Bai siku mwenga makundi ga at'u kula kahi za kila mudzi were ganamukundzumanyikira vikara marihokala madzakundzumanyika hatha madzafika anji enye Jesu waambozera fumbo riri akiamba
A farmer went out to sow seed While he was scattering the seed some of it fell beside the road People walked on the seed and the birds ate it all,Mut'u mumwenga wauka kwendamwaga-mwaga mbeyuye mundani kwakwe Bai arihokala akuzimwagani-mwagani nyingine zagwa k'anda-k'anda ya ngira zikizhogwa-zhogwa na unyama wa kubururuka ukidzazit'ot'a
Other seed fell on rock It began to grow but then died because it had no water,Nyingine zikigwa iweni bai zirihoandza kumera zikinyala kwa kukala were k'ahana kinemi
Some other seed fell among thorny weeds This seed grew but later the weeds stopped the plants from growing,Mbeyu nyingine zikigwa miyani bai zirihokala zinakula yo miya nayo yakula na ikizizia-zia hatha k'azipatire nafasi ya kumbola ndze
The rest of the seed fell on good ground This seed grew and made 100 times more grain,Ela nyinginezo zikigwa kahi za mutsanga mudzo nazo zikimerat'o na zikizhala kila t'embe ikizhala t'embe gana zaidhi Jesu akimarigiza kwa kunena zhomu akiamba Mwenye masikiro ga kusikirira naasikire
Jesus followers asked him What does this story mean,Kusikira vizho o anafundzie makimuza makiamba Mana ya ro fumbo ni noni
He said You have been chosen to know the secret truths about Gods kingdom But I use stories to speak to other people I do this so that,Jesu akiamba Ninwi mwajaliwa kuzimanya zo siri za uthawali wa Mulungu ela kwa at'u angine ninanena kwa mafumbo ili
This is what the story means The seed is Gods teaching,Bai mana ya ro fumbo riri ni ii Ziryahu mbeyu ni neno ra Mulungu
Some people are like the seed that fell beside the path They hear Gods teaching but then the devil comes and causes them to stop thinking about it This keeps them from believing it and being saved,Ziryahu mbeyu zirizogwa k'anda-k'anda ya ngira ni aryahu at'u masikirao neno ra Mulungu gonya Shethani nikudza akadzarusa kula kahi za mioyo yao ili masidze makakuluhira na kuokoka
Others are like the seed that fell on rock That is like the people who hear Gods teaching and gladly accept it But they dont have deep roots They believe for a while But when trouble comes they turn away from God,Ziryahu mbeyu zirizogwa iweni ni aryahu at'u mario makisikira neno thu manarihokera kare mara mwenga kidza manarihokera na raha ela kwa k'amana miziji manakuluhira kare kwa muda na majezwaho manaviricha
What about the seed that fell among the thorny weeds That is like the people who hear Gods teaching but they let the worries riches and pleasures of this life stop them from growing So they never produce a crop,Ziryahu mbeyu zirizogwa miyani manaye ni aryahu at'u masikirao neno ra Mulungu ela badaye maukaho riryahu neno rinendakonywa-konywa ni maut'u ga urumwengu ushaha na raha za maisha kwa ut'u uwo k'amakumala bule
And what about the seed that fell on the good ground That is like the people who hear Gods teaching with a good honest heart They obey it and patiently produce a good crop,Ela ziryahu mbeyu zirizogwa kahi za mutsanga mudzo ni aryahu mario makisikira neno ra Mulungu manarigwira kwa uaminifu na mioyo midzo nao kwa kuvumirira ni kuzhala matunda
No one lights a lamp and then covers it with a bowl or hides it under a bed Instead they put the lamp on a lampstand so that the people who come in will have enough light to see,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba K'akuna mut'u agwizaye taa gonya akaribiningiza na muvure hedu hatha kurika muvunguni Ela nikurika nyambaroni ili kila angiraye aone wo mulangaza
Everything that is hidden will become clear Every secret thing will be made known and everyone will see it,Mana k'akuna kit'u kirichofitswa ambacho kindarichwa vizho hasiho kumbozwa halamu na k'akuna kit'u kiricho kidzabiningizwa kindichorichwa hasiho kumanywa hedu kumbozwa ndze
So think carefully about what you are hearing The people who have some understanding will receive more But those who do not have understanding will lose even what they think they have,Kwa vizho bai dzimanyirireni na yo misirikizire yenu Mana kila ariye nacho andangezwa na ye ariye k'ana kit'u andahokwa hatha kiryahu aricho anadziona anacho
Jesus mother and brothers came to visit him But they could not get close to him because there were so many people,Siku mwenga mameye na nduguze Jesu a kilume makwenda kwamba makamone ela marihofika k'amadimire kumusongerera hehi kwa ut'u wa ro kundi ra at'u ririrokala haho
Someone said to Jesus Your mother and your brothers are standing outside They want to see you,Ndo hachambola mut'u akimwamba Jesu Mameyo na nduguzo manakumala ko ndze
Jesus answered them My mother and my brothers are those who listen to Gods teaching and obey it,Kusikira vizho Jesu akiadzigidzya o at'u akiamba M'ama na ndugu zangu ni aryahu masikirao neno ra Mulungu na kuhenda here riambazho
One day Jesus and his followers got into a boat He said to them Come with me across the lake And so they started across,Siku mwenga Jesu wangira dauni na anafundzie akiambira Nahuvuke hedu fwende nyangamo nyingine ya ziya Kwa vizho makiuka machenda
While they were sailing Jesus slept A big storm blew across the lake and the boat began to fill with water They were in danger,Bai marihokala makuvukani Jesu wanyekererwa mo dauni na akilala K'uzhona zho kukidza luvutho lwa kitai mo ziyani hatha ro dau rikikwatya kudzala madzi nao mere ma hatharini
The followers went to Jesus and woke him They said Master Master We will drown,Bai aryahu anafundzi machendamulamusa Jesu makiamba Bwana Bwana Funahoha Ndo Jesu akilamuka akiluchemera lo luvutho na go maimbi na lo luvutho hu lukihurira
He said to his followers Where is your faith,Jesu akiauza o anafundzie akiamba Ro kuluhiro renu be hatha ri hiko Bai makingalala na makidzalwa ni woga kidza makikwatya kuuzana-uzana na kuamba Yuno ni h'ani yuno Analagiza hatha luvutho na madzi nazho vinamusikira
Jesus and his followers sailed on across the lake They sailed to the area where the Gerasene people live across from Galilee,Bai Jesu na anafundzie maenderera na charo chao na makifika ts'i ya Agerasi Ts'i ii inalolana na Galilaya
When Jesus got out of the boat a man from that town came to him This man had demons inside him For a long time he had worn no clothes He did not live in a house but in the caves where the dead are buried,Jesu arihothima mo dauni thu akithunganana na mut'u kula kahi za mudzi uwo ariyekala ana p'ep'o Mut'u yuyu were ho arihohegezera kuvala nguwo hedu kwenda mudzini k'ahamanya mana were akala makaburini
Jesus asked him What is your name The man answered Legion He said his name was Legion because many demons had gone into him,Jesu akimuza akiamba Dzinaro ndiwe h'ani Ye p'ep'o akiamba Majeshi Naye wadzigidzya vivi kwa kukala were wangirwa ni p'ep'o anji
The demons begged Jesus not to send them into the bottomless pit,Bai aryahu p'ep'o makimudhedheja Jesu kukala asiaamurishe kwenda kahi za ridzina risiro mwisho
On that hill there was a big herd of pigs eating The demons begged Jesus to allow them to go into the pigs So he allowed them to do this,Vikara haho were hana ribadhi ribomu ra nguluwe rinarisa k'anda-k'anda za karima Bai o p'ep'o makimuvoya aaruhusu mende makaangire o nguluwe na Jesu akiaruhusu
Then the demons came out of the man and went into the pigs The herd of pigs ran down the hill into the lake and all were drowned,Bai aryahu p'ep'o makimwambola ye mwanamulume na machendaangira o nguluwe na ro badhi ra nguluwe rikitharamuka malo kula ko ngokani rikivoromoka mo ziyani rikihoha
The men who were caring for the pigs ran away and told the story in the fields and in the town,Aryahu arisa kudzaona vizho virizhokala vidzahendeka machimbira na machendasema uvoro uu ko midzini na mindani
People went out to see what had happened They came to Jesus and found the man sitting there at the feet of Jesus The man had clothes on and was in his right mind again the demons were gone This made the people afraid,Bai o at'u duu machendalola zho virizhokala vidzahendeka Marihokudza kwa Jesu makimona ye ariyekala adzambozwa p'ep'o akelesi ho maguluni ha Jesu na adzavala nguwo kidza akilize ni ndzima Kuona vizho o at'u makingirwa ni woga
The men who saw these things happen told the others all about how Jesus made the man well,Aryahu mariokala madzazhona zho virizhokala vidzahendeka makiambira o at'u zho ye mut'u ariyekala wapagawa ni p'ep'o arizhokala adzahozwa
All those who lived in the area around Gerasa asked Jesus to go away because they were afraid,Gonya o at'u osi a ro jimbo riro ra Agerasi makimwamba Jesu aahaukire mana were mathele woga Bai Jesu achangira dauni na akihauka
The man he had healed begged to go with him But Jesus sent him away saying,Ela kabila ye Jesu k'adzauka ye mut'u ariyekala adzambozwa p'ep'o wamuvoya Jesu akiamba Nahendza nikuthuwe Ela Jesu akimulaga na kuamba
Go back home and tell people what God did for you,Uya kwenu ukaseme garyahu adzigokuhendera Mulungu Kwa vizho ye mut'u achenda kahi za wo mudzi muzima na kuambira at'u garyahu arigokala adzahenderwa ni Jesu
When Jesus went back to Galilee the people welcomed him Everyone was waiting for him,Bai Jesu arihouya yo nyangamo nyingine ya ro ziya wakaribishwa ni kundi bomu ra at'u mana ao were manamuthariza
A woman was there who had been bleeding for twelve years She had spent all her money on doctorsbut no doctor was able to heal her,Mwanamuche mumwenga ariyekala adzakala mukongo wa kumbola milatso kwa miaka kumi na miri na k'ahana ariyedima kumuhoza
The woman came behind Jesus and touched the bottom of his coat At that moment her bleeding stopped,wakudza nyuma za ye Jesu na akigut'a wo mutsa wa ro valo ra Jesu na lola haho henye yo milatso ikithuma kare
Then Jesus said Who touched me,Jesu akiuza akiamba Ni h'ani ye adziyenigut'a Ela o at'u osi k'ahana hatha mumwenga ariyeamba Ndimi Ndo P'et'ero akimwamba Mwalimu at'u anji aa mario madzakuzunguluka hatha manakukwala-kwala ela unauza ni h'ani adziyekugut'a
But Jesus said Someone touched me I felt power go out from me,Ela Jesu akiamba Hana mut'u adziyenigut'a mana nasikira nguvu zidzanambola
When the woman saw that she could not hide she came forward shaking She bowed down before Jesus While everyone listened she told why she touched him Then she said that she was healed immediately when she touched him,Ndo yuyahu mwanamuche arihoona kukala adzamanyikana wakwenda kwa Jesu kuno anavinwa ni mwiri na akigwa ho mbereze Bai akinena mbere za o at'u osi viryahu virizhokala vidzamuhendya hatha akamugut'a na viryahu arizhokala adzahola saa iyo-iyo
Jesus said to her My daughter you are made well because you believed Go in peace,Ndo Jesu akimwamba Mwanangu kuluhiro ra kwako ridzakuhoza Enda na dheri
While Jesus was still speaking someone came from the house of the synagogue leader and said Your daughter has died Dont bother the Teacher anymore,Naye arihokala achere kunena poo mut'u ariyekala adzambola nyumbani kwa ye mubomu wa sinagogi na akimwamba Jairo Ye musichanao be adzamarigizika kwa vizho k'ahana haja ya kumubudzya ye mwalimu
Jesus heard this and said to Jairus Dont be afraid Just believe and your daughter will be well,Jesu arihosikira vivi wamwamba Jairo Tha usogohe bewe kuluhira thuwe naye andahola
Jesus went to the house He let only Peter John James and the girls father and mother go inside with him,Bai Jesu arihofika kuko mudzini kwa Jairo k'aruhusire mut'u yoyosi mungine angire mumo hasihokala P'et'ero Johana na Jakobu hamwenga na ye bimut'u na mimut'u
Everyone was crying and feeling sad because the girl was dead But Jesus said Dont cry She is not dead She is only sleeping,Wakathi uwo o at'u osini were manapiga k'ululu na kurira Jesu arihoona vizho akiambira Musirire bule ye muhoho k'afwere bule arere thu
The people laughed at him because they knew that the girl was dead,At'u makimutseka mana were manamanya kukala ye musichana adzafwa
But Jesus held her hand and called to her Little girl stand up,Bai Jesu akimugwira mukono akimwamba Muhoho hedu uka
Her spirit came back into her and she stood up immediately Jesus said Give her something to eat,Rohoye ikiuya kaheri na haho henye akirungarara Gonya Jesu akialagiza mamup'e ut'u wa kurya ye muhoho
The girls parents were amazed He told them not to tell anyone about what happened,Azhazie mangalala zhomu ela Jesu akiambira masimwambire mut'u yoyosi gago gadzigohendeka
Jesus called his twelve apostles together He gave them power to heal sicknesses and power to force demons out of people,Badaye Jesu akiaiha aryahu anafundzi kumi na airi na akiap'a nguvu na wadimi dzulu za p'ep'o osi na kuhoza makongo
He sent them to tell about Gods kingdom and to heal the sick,Gonya akiahuma mende makahubiri Uvoro Udzo wa uthawali wa Mulungu na kuhoza akongo
He said to them When you travel dont take a walking stick Also dont carry a bag food or money Take for your trip only the clothes you are wearing,Akiambira vivi Musitsukule chochosi mo charoni Musitsukule mudhath'a hedu mukoba hedu leu hedu p'esa hedu k'andzu mbiri
When you go into a house stay there until it is time to leave,Nyumba yoyosi mundiyongira na mukaribishwet'o kalani kahi za nyumba iyo hatha mukale munauka ndo mwambole
If the people in the town will not welcome you go outside the town and shake the dust off your feet as a warning to them,Ela mwangiraho mudzini na o at'u masimukaribishe bai haukeni na mukut'e-kut'e vumbi ra maguluni mwenu kunyesa kukala mandamanya enye
So the apostles went out They traveled through all the towns They told the Good News and healed people everywhere,Kwa vizho o anafundzi makiuka kwenda Bai machenda kadzidzi kano na kadzidzi karya kuhubiri Uvoro Udzo na kuhoza akongo kila hat'u
Herod the ruler heard about all these things that were happening He was confused because some people said John the Baptizer has risen from death,Bai muthawali Herode arihosikira dzulu za gago gosi garigokala ganakala wadangana mana at'u angine mere manaamba Johana Mubat'izaji wafufuka
Others said Elijah has come to us And some others said One of the prophets from long ago has risen from death,Angine o makiamba Nabii Elija adzatsumbuka na angine nao makiamba Mumwenga kahi za o manabii a kapindi adzafufuka
Herod said I cut off Johns head So who is this man I hear these things about Herod continued trying to see Jesus,Ela Herode akiamba Johana namutosa kitswa vikara ni h'ani yuno niriye ninasikira uvoro uno dzuluze Bai akikala anathamani kumona
When the apostles came back they told Jesus what they had done on their trip Then he took them away to a town called Bethsaida There he and his apostles could be alone together,Vikara aryahu ahumwie marihouya makudzamwambira Jesu go marigokala magahenda Bai Jesu akiahala o anafundzie na makihenda nyeree machenda kahi za mudzi uifwao Beth'isaida
But the people learned where Jesus went and followed him He welcomed them and talked with them about Gods kingdom He healed the people who were sick,Ela ro kundi ra at'u rikivimanya vizho naro rikimuthuwa Bai Jesu akiakaribisha na akinena nao dzulu za wo uthawali wa Mulungu na kidza akiahoza ao mariokala mana haja ya kuhozwa
Late in the afternoon the twelve apostles came to Jesus and said No one lives in this place Send the people away They need to find food and places to sleep in the farms and towns around here,Vikara dzuwa ririhokala rinenda kutswani aryahu anafundzie kumi na airi mamwendera na makimwamba Baha uafumule aa ili mende kahi za midzi na minda iriyo hehi na haha makadzimalire chakurya na ndazi mana hano be ni nyika t'uhu
But Jesus said to the apostles You give them something to eat,Jesu akiamba Ap'eni chakurya ninwi Ndo o anafundzie makimudzigidzya makimwamba Huna mikahe mitsano na makumba mairi thu labuda fukarigulire riri kundi rosi ra at'u chakurya
There were about 5000 men there,Na haho were hana here at'u alifu ts'ano alume Jesu akiambira o anafundzie akiamba Ambireni o at'u makeresi kahi za vithundhu zha here at'u mirongo mitsano-mitsano vivi
So the followers did this and everyone sat down,Bai o anafundzie makihenda vizho na o at'u makikeresi osi
Then Jesus took the five loaves of bread and two fish He looked up into the sky and thanked God for the food Then he broke it into pieces which he gave to the followers to give to the people,Jesu akihala yo mikahe mitsano na go makumba mairi akilola dzulu mulunguni akimboza muvera kwa Mulungu gonya akivimogola-mogola na akiap'a o anafundzie maagazhire o at'u
They all ate until they were full And there was a lot of food left Twelve baskets were filled with the pieces of food that were not eaten,Nao osi makirya hatha makivilola Marihogonya kurya o anafundzie makitsola-tsola zho visiku-visiku virizhokala vidzasala na makidzaza k'ahu kumi na mbiri
One time Jesus was praying alone His followers came together there and he asked them Who do the people say I am,Siku mwenga Jesu were anavoya h'akeye bai o anafundzie makidza haho Akiauza akiamba Vidze o at'u manaamba mino ni h'ani
They answered Some people say you are John the Baptizer Others say you are Elijah And some people say you are one of the prophets from long ago that has come back to life,Makidzigidzya makiamba Angine manaamba uwe u Johana Mubat'izaji angine o manaamba u Elija na hatha angine manaamba u mumwenga wa o manabii a kapindi ariyefufuka
Then Jesus said to his followers And who do you say I am,Jesu akiauza akiamba H'aya nwi munaamba mino ni h'ani P'et'ero akiamba Uwe ndiwe ye Masihi wa Mulungu
Jesus warned them not to tell anyone,Bai Jesu akiakokot'era ili masizhambire mut'u yoyosi
Then Jesus said The Son of Man must suffer many things He will be rejected by the older Jewish leaders the leading priests and teachers of the law And he will be killed But after three days he will be raised from death,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Ye Mwana wa Mudamu suthi ateswe sana na akahalwe ni athumia a Kiyahudi na alombi abomu na alimu a Sheria Naye suthi alagwe ela siku ya hahu andafufulwa
Jesus continued to say to all of them Any of you who want to be my follower must stop thinking about yourself and what you want You must be willing to carry the cross that is given to you every day for following me,Gonya akiambira osi vivi Mut'u akihendza kunithuwa mimi suthi adzikane mwenye adzihike musalabawe kila siku na anithuwe
Any of you who try to save the life you have will lose it But you who give up your life for me will save it,Mana kila amalaye kuthizha rohoye andayangamiza ela kila andiyeyangamiza rohoye kwa ut'u wangu nde andiyeithizha
It is worth nothing for you to have the whole world if you yourself are destroyed or lost,Kwani vindamufwahani mut'u akipata vit'u zhosi zha urumwengu gonya rohoye yangamike hedu adzanonge mwenye
Dont be ashamed of me and my teaching If that happens Iwill be ashamed of you when I come with my divine greatness and that of the Father and the holy angels,Kwani mut'u anioneraye haya hamwenga na gaga mafundisho gangu bai ye Mwana wa Mudamu andamuonera haya siku iyo andiyokudza kahi za ngumaye mwenye na ya Baba na ya malaika aeri
Believe me when I say that some of you people standing here will see Gods kingdom before you die,Bai ninamwambira ujeri haha hana at'u mario k'amandafwa ng'o hatha mawone wo uthawali wa Mulungu
About eight days after Jesus said these things he took Peter John and James and went up on a mountain to pray,Siku nane bada ya Jesu kunena gaga wamuhala P'et'ero Johana na Jakobu machendakwera dzulu za murima mavoye
While Jesus was praying his face began to change His clothes became shining white,Bai arihokala Jesu akuvoyani yo suraye yagaluka zo nguwoze zikikala nyaruhe kidza za kung'ala-ng'ala zhomu
Then two men were there talking with him They were Moses and Elijah,Na lola haho henye hachambola at'u airi Elija na Musanao makinena naye
They also looked bright and glorious They were talking with Jesus about his death that would happen in Jerusalem,Nao were manang'ala-ng'ala Bai at'u ao were mananena na Jesu dzulu za viryahu arizho were andathimiza na kifwache kiricho were kindakala ko Jerusalemu
Peter and the others were asleep But they woke up and saw the glory of Jesus They also saw the two men who were standing with him,wakathi uwo P'et'ero na andziye were marere uts'indzizi wa fungo ela bai marihong'alwa ni matso mawona wo mulangazawe hamwenga na aryahu at'u airi mariokala maimire naye
When Moses and Elijah were leaving Peter said Master it is good that we are here We will put three tents hereone for you one for Moses and one for Elijah He did not know what he was saying,Vikara Elija na Musa marihokala manauka P'et'ero wamwamba Jesu Mwalimu ni vidzo zho zha fu haha Nahuake vidzumba vihahu kimwenga chako kimwenga cha Musa na kimwenga cha Elija P'et'ero were tha k'amanya ananenani
While Peter was saying these things a cloud came all around them Peter John and James were afraid when the cloud covered them,Naye tha were k'adzatosa kukidza ingu rikidzaafinikira na o anafundzi makigwirwa ni woga marihokala manafinikirwa ni ro ingu
A voice came from the cloud and said This is my Son He is the one I have chosen Obey him,Mo inguni muchambola mumiro wa mut'u ukiamba Yuyu ni Mwanangu niriyemutsagula musirikizeni iye
When the voice stopped only Jesus was there Peter John and James said nothing And for a long time after that they told no one about what they had seen,Bada ya yo sauthi kugonya kunena o anafundzie mamona Jesu a h'akeye renye Bai o anafundzie k'amazhambirire mut'u vivi wakathi uwo marihokala madzazhona hatha mathuwa kukala nazho enye
The next day Jesus Peter John and James came down from the mountain A large group of people met Jesus,Siku ya hiriye marihokala madzatharamuka kula ko murimani ngororoki bomu ya at'u yakudzathunganana na Jesu
A man in the group shouted to him Teacher please come and look at my son He is the only child I have,Kahi za yo ngororoki hachambola mwanamulume mumwenga ariyenena zhomu zhenye akiamba Mwalimu nakuvoya umulole yuyu muthana wangu mana sina mwana mungine
An evil spirit comes into him and then he shouts He loses control of himself and foams at the mouth The evil spirit continues to hurt him and almost never leaves him,Lola ana p'ep'o ariye nikumugwaga na akaandza kupiga k'ululu akamuhendya afitike na ambole fulo ra kanwani K'avimwendera kure kamare hatha vinamwanonga bai
I begged your followers to make the evil spirit leave my son but they could not do it,Nidzaasitira o anafundzio mamwamboze ye p'ep'o ela k'amazhadimire
Jesus answered You people today have no faith Your lives are all wrong How long must I be with you and be patient with you Then Jesus said to the man Bring your son here,Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba H'enwi at'u a kizhazi cha kwangamika ngira musio na kuluhiro nindakala nanwi hatha rini Hedu nindamuvumirira hatha rini Murehe kuno ye muthanao
While the boy was coming the demon threw the boy to the ground The boy lost control of himself But Jesus gave a strong command to the evil spirit Then the boy was healed and Jesus gave him back to his father,Vikara ye muvulana arihokala anadza ye p'ep'o akimupiga chavu na kufitika ela Jesu akimuchemera akimwamboza ye p'ep'o ye muvulana akihola akimuhala akimulazha kwa babaye
All the people were amazed at the great power of God,Na lola o at'u osi makingalazwa kamare ni zo nguvu za Mulungu
Dont forget what I will tell you now The Son of Man will soon be handed over to the control of other men,Sirikizani sana gaga nimalago kumwambira Kwani ye Mwana wa Mudamu andalazhwa mikononi mwa at'u
But the followers did not understand what he meant The meaning was hidden from them so that they could not understand it But they were afraid to ask Jesus about what he said,Ela o anafundzie k'amang'alirirwe ni gago arigokala Jesu anaambira Kwani kwao were vidzafitswa ili masidime kuvielewa na kidza ao were ni aoga na kumuza dzulu za gago
Jesus followers began to have an argument about which one of them was the greatest,Bai o anafundzie makinenezana dzulu za mubomu ni h'ani kahi zao
Jesus knew what they were thinking so he took a little child and stood the child beside him,Ela Jesu akigamanya kare go maazo gao kwa vizho akihala muhoho muthithe akimurungaraza ho hehi naye
Then he said to the followers Whoever accepts a little child like this in my name is accepting me And anyone who accepts me is also accepting the one who sent me The one among you who is the most humblethis is the one who is great,Gonya akiambira Kila amuhokeraye muhoho muthithe dza yuyu kwa dzina rangu ananihokera mimi na ye anihokeraye mimi k'anihokera mimi bule ela anamuhokera iye ariyenihuma mana ye ariye ni muthithe kahi zenu nyosi be nde mubomu
John answered Master we saw someone using your name to force demons out of people We told him to stop because he does not belong to our group,Johana achambola kunena akiamba Bwana fwaona mut'u anamboza p'ep'o kwa dzinaro naswi hukimukahaza kwa kukala si mumwenga wehu
Jesus said to him Dont stop him Whoever is not against you is for you,Jesu akimwamba Musimukahaze mana mut'u ariye k'akinyume chenu a upande wenu
The time was coming near when Jesus would leave and go back to heaven He decided to go to Jerusalem,Vikara siku za Jesu kuhalwa kwenda mulunguni zirihofika hehi Jesu wakat'a shauri kwenda Jerusalemu
He sent some men ahead of him They went into a town in Samaria to make everything ready for him,Bai akihuma at'u mamuthangulie nao machenda kahi za kadzidzi ka Asamaria ili mamuthayarishire hat'u
But the people there would not welcome Jesus because he was going toward Jerusalem,Ela o at'u a kuko makikahala kumukaribisha Jesu kwa kukala were anenda Jerusalemu
James and John the followers of Jesus saw this They said Lord do you want us to call fire down from heaven and destroy those people,K'uzhona anafundzie airi Jakobu na Johana marihoona vizho makiamba Bwana unahendza fuihe moho kula mulunguni udze uanonge-nonge ano dza here Elija arizhohenda
But Jesus turned and criticized them for saying this,Ela Jesu akihunduka na akiadumulira akiamba Ninwi k'amumanya ni roho ya samupuli yani yo muriyo nayo Mana Mwana wa Mudamu k'adzire kudzangamiza maisha ga at'u ela wakudza kugaokola
Then he and his followers went to another town,Bai makiuka na machenda kahi za kadzidzi kangine
They were all traveling along the road Someone said to Jesus I will follow you anywhere you go,Vikara Jesu na anafundzie marihokala ma mo ngirani makwendani mut'u mumwenga wamwamba Jesu Mut'u mimi nindakuthuwa kila undikokwenda
He answered The foxes have holes to live in The birds have nests But the Son of Man has no place where he can rest his head,Jesu akimudzigidzya akiamba Makala gana p'anga na unyama wa kubururuka una vitsunji zhao ela Mwana wa Mudamu k'ana hat'u ha kuika mbavu
Jesus said to another man Follow me,Badaye Jesu akimwamba mut'u mungine Nithuwa Ela ye mut'u akidzigidzya akiamba Bwana niricha nikamuzike baba kwandza be nidze nikuthuwe
But Jesus said to him Let the people who are dead bury their own dead You must go and tell about Gods kingdom,Jesu akimwamba Ariche at'u mariofwa mazike nyufu zao ela uwe enda ukauhubiri wo uthawali wa Mulungu
Another man said I will follow you Lord but first let me go and say goodbye to my family,Mut'u mungine ye akimwamba Jesu Mimi nindakuthuwa Bwana ela niricha kwandza nikaalage adamu angu ko nyumbani
Jesus said Anyone who begins to plow a field but looks back is not prepared for Gods kingdom,Jesu akimudzigidzya akiamba Mut'u yoyosi agwiraye jembe kurima gonya akalola nyuma k'afwaha kuhenda kazi kahi za uthawali wa Mulungu
One time Jesus was out praying and when he finished one of his followers said to him John taught his followers how to pray Lord teach us how to pray too,Siku mwenga Jesu were a hat'u anavoya Bai arihogonya ko kuvoya mumwenga kahi za o anafundzie akimwamba Bwana hufundishe kuvoya here Johana naye arizhoafundisha anafundzie
Jesus said to the followers This is how you should pray,Bai Jesu akiambira Kala munavoya ambani
Give us the food we need for each day,Kila siku hup'e chakurya chehu cha kuhuthosha
Forgive our sins,Na uhusamehe makosa gehu
Your friend inside the house answers Go away Dont bother me The door is already locked My children and I are in bed I cannot get up and give you the bread now,Gonya ye musenawe mo nyumbani amudzigidzye amwambe Aa Usinibudzye mino wo muryango udzafungwa kare kidza mimi na anangu hu ndazini kwa vizho sindadima kuuka na kudzakup'a chochosi
I tell you maybe friendship is not enough to make him get up to give you the bread But he will surely get up to give you what you need if you continue to ask,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Namwambira kamare idzaho k'andauka amup'e mikahe kwa zho zha ni musenawe ela andakudza amup'e zho amalazho zhosi kwa kukala anaenderera kuvoya hasiho haya
So I tell you continue to ask and God will give to you Continue to search and you will find Continue to knock and the door will open for you,Kwa vizho nami namwambira voyani nanwi mundagerwa malani nanwi mundaona bishani nanwi mundasundulirwa
Yes whoever continues to ask will receive Whoever continues to look will find And whoever continues to knock will have the door opened for them,Mana kila avoyaye nikugerwa kila amalaye nikuona na kila abishaye nikusundulirwa
Do any of you have a son What would you do if your son asked you for a fish Would any father give him a snake,H'aya ni bimut'u h'ani kahi zenu ariye mwanawe akimala kumba andamup'a nyoka hat'u ha kumba
Or if he asked for an egg would you give him a scorpion Of course not,Hedu hatha ye mwana akimala iji vidze andamup'a h'ambini
Even you who are bad know how to give good things to your children So surely your heavenly Father knows how to give the Holy Spirit to the people who ask him,Bai kala ninwi at'u ai thu kidza munamanya kuap'a ana enu vit'u vidzo h'e seze ye Babiyenu ariye mulunguni ye si zaidhi Iye nikuap'a Roho Mweri ao mamuvoyao
One time Jesus was sending a demon out of a man who could not talk When the demon came out the man was able to speak The crowds were amazed,Badaye Jesu were anamboza p'ep'o bwibwi Bai yuyahu p'ep'o arihombola ye bwibwi akikwatya kunena na o at'u machangalala
But some of the people said He uses the power of Satanto force demons out of people Satan is the ruler of demons,Ela at'u angine haho makikwatya kuamba H'aa anamboza p'ep'o kwa kuhumira nguvu za Belizebuli nde mubomu wa p'ep'o
Some others there wanted to test Jesus They asked him to do a miracle as a sign from God,Angine o makimuhega kwa kumwamba ahende muujiza wa kula mulunguni
But he knew what they were thinking So he said to them Every kingdom that fights against itself will be destroyed And a family that fights against itself will break apart,Ela Jesu akigamanya go maazo gao na akiambira Ts'i yoyosi o at'ue makidzigazha makundi-makundi gahehanago be ts'i iyo indanongeka Na mudzi ukigazhika na at'ue k'amagwirana milomo be mudzi uwo undabandika
So if Satan is fighting against himself how will his kingdom survive You say that I use the power of Satan to force out demons,Vikara ikikala ye Shethani adzadzigazha vidze uthawaliwe undatoa jeri Nanena vivi kwa kukala munaamba ninamboza p'ep'o kwa nguvu za Belizebuli
But if I use Satans power to force out demons then what power do your people use when they force out demons So your own people will prove that you are wrong,Chamba mino namboza p'ep'o kwa nguvu za Belizebuli o at'u enu o manaamboza kwa nguvu za h'ani Bai ao ndo mandiomuhukumu ninwi
But I use the power of God to force out demons This shows that Gods kingdom has now come to you,Ela nikimboza p'ep'o kwa chala cha Mulungu be wo uthawali wa Mulungu udzamudzirira
When a strong man with many weapons guards his own house the things in his house are safe,Mut'u mwenye nguvu na silaha arindaho nyumbaye mwenye zho vit'uzhe ni kukala salama
But suppose a stronger man comes and defeats him The stronger man will take away the weapons that the first man trusted to keep his house safe Then the stronger man will do what he wants with the other mans things,Ela adzaho mut'u mungine mwenye nguvu kukira iye na kumuvamia na kumudhima nguvu be mut'u iye ni kumuhoka zo silaha adzizokuluhira na kugazha zho vit'u adzizhomuhoka
Whoever is not with me is against me And anyone who does not work with me is working against me,Kila mut'u ariye k'ahamwenga nami a kinyume nami Na iye ariye k'anaviza kukundzumanya hamwenga kaziye ni kutsamula
When an evil spirit comes out of someone it travels through dry places looking for a place to rest But it finds no place to rest So it says I will go back to the home I left,P'ep'o amwambolaho mut'u nikudengereka-dengereka kut'u kuriko k'akuna madzi ili apate hat'u ha kuoya ela akikosa nikunena kimoyo-moyo akaamba Mut'u mimi nindauya iryahu nyumba niriyombola
When it comes back it finds that home all neat and clean,Bai auyaho na kuithekeza yo nyumba yasherwat'o na ikipangwat'o
Then the evil spirit goes out and brings back seven other spirits more evil than itself They all go and live there and that person has even more trouble than before,nikwendahala p'ep'o angine afungahe ai kumukira ye mwenye makadzangira makatoa mumo Bai hali ya mut'u iye ni kukala mbii-mbii hatha kukira zho arizhokala chaho
As Jesus was saying these things a woman with the people there called out to him Blessings from God belong to the woman who gave birth to you and fed you,Jesu arihokala akunenani maut'u gaga hambola mwanamuche kahi za ro kundi ra at'u akinena zhomu zhenye akiamba Baha iye m'ama ariyekuzhala uwe na kukuamwisa
But Jesus said The people who hear the teaching of God and obey itthey are the ones who have Gods blessing,Ela Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Ee ni jeri ela baha ao masikirao neno ra Mulungu na kurigwira
The crowd grew larger and larger Jesus said The people who live today are evil They ask for a miracle as a sign from God But no miracle will be done to prove anything to them The only sign will be the miracle that happened to Jonah,Vikara ro rikundi ra at'u ririhokala rinakaza kwangezeka Jesu waamba Kizhazi kiki be ni kithiriri Ati kinamala kuhenderwa miujiza Ela k'akuna muujiza mandiohenderwa isihokala uwo muujiza wa Jona
Jonah was a sign for those who lived in NinevehIt is the same with the Son of Man He will be a sign for the people of this time,Mana here Jona arizho were iye ni muvano kwa at'u a Ninawi ndo vindizhokala pia kwa ye Mwana wa Mudamu Iye andakala muvano kwa at'u a kizhazi kiki
On the judgment day you people who live now will be compared with the Queen of the Southand she will be a witness who shows how guilty you are Why do I say this Because she traveled from far far away to listen to Solomons wise teaching And I tell you that someonegreater than Solomon is right here but you wont listen,Bai siku ya hukumu ye muthawali wa kula kwa mwakaandaungarara hamwenga na o at'u a kizhazi kiki na aapige ulongo kwa kutsanikuluhira mimi Mana iye muthawali iye wambola kula kure zhomu na akidzasirikiza ulachu wa SelemaniBai lolani haha hana mut'u ariye ni mubomu hatha kuriko ye Selemani
On the judgment day you people who live now will also be compared with the people from Nineveh and they will be witnesses who show how guilty you are I say this because when Jonah preached to those people they changed their hearts and lives And you are listening to someone greater than Jonah but you refuse to change,Kidza kahi za siku ya hukumu ao at'u a Ninawi mandaungarara hamwenga na o at'u a kizhazi kiki maapige ulongo mana ao marihomusikira Jona anahubiri mathubu H'aya lolani haha bai hana mut'u ariye ni mubomu hatha kukira ye Jona
No one takes a light and puts it under a bowl or hides it Instead they put it on a lampstand so that the people who come in can see,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba K'akuna mut'u agwizaye taa gonya akarifitsa hedu hatha akaribiningiza na muvure Ela nikurika nyambaroni ili kila angiraye aone wo mulangaza
The only source of light for the body is the eye When you look at people and want to help them you are full of light But when you look at people in a selfish way you are full of darkness,Matsogo be ndo taa ra wo mwiriwo Kala matsogo ni madzo wo mwiriwo ni kukala ni mulangaza muhuhu ela kala ni makongo be wo mwiriwo wosi nikwadzala kiza
So be careful Dont let the light in you become darkness,Kwa vizho dzimanyirire ili uwo mulangaza wa Uvoro Udzo uriwo ndani mwako usikale kiza
If you are full of light and there is no part of you that is dark then you will be all bright as though you have the light of a lamp shining on you,Bai mwiriwo wosi ukikala u thele mulangaza na k'ahana hat'u hohosi ha wo mwiri hariho na kiza be wo mwiri undang'ala wosi dza viryahu ambazho taa ni kukung'aza na wo mulangazawe
After Jesus had finished speaking a Pharisee asked Jesus to eat with him So he went and took a place at the table,Bai Jesu arihokala adzagonya kunena gaga hambola mut'u mumwenga ariyekala ni Farisayo akimusunga Jesu ende akarye chakurya naye ko kwakwe Kwa vizho Jesu akikubali na achenda na akikelesi ho chakuryani
But the Pharisee was surprised when he saw that Jesus did not wash his handsfirst before the meal,Ela yuyahu Farisayo akimashwa ni viryahu arizhokala Jesu anarya bila kuoga mikono
The Lord said to him The washing you Pharisees do is like cleaning only the outside of a cup or a dish But what is inside you You want only to cheat and hurt people,Ela ye Bwana akimwamba Ninwi Mafarisayo muhendazho ni kwamba munagesa vikombe na vibakuli ko kwa ndze h'akeye ela ko ndani be mu thele unyang'anyi na uthiriri
You are foolish The same one who made what is outside also made what is inside,Ii azuzu nwi Samba ariyetengeza ko ndze nde ariyetengeza tha ko ndani
So pay attention to what is inside Give to the people who need help Then you will be fully clean,Bai lazhani vizho virizho mo ndani ya zho vikombe na zho vibakuli kwa akiya mukihenda vizho lolani kila kit'u kindakala kisafi kwenu
But it will be bad for you Pharisees You give God a tenth of the food you get even your mint your rue and every other little plant in your gardenBut you forget to be fair to others and to love God These are the things you should do And you should also continue to do those other things,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Ela shauri yenu ninwi Mafarisayo mana munalazha fungu ra kumi hatha ra vilungo kiswenya na mboga nyingine ela ko k'amujali hachi hedu hatha kumuhendza Mulungu Bai ni karakara kumboza fungu ra kumi ela go mangine nago musigariche
It will be bad for you Pharisees because you love to have the most important seats in the synagogues And you love for people to show respect to you in the marketplaces,Shauri yenu ninwi Mafarisayo Mana munahendza zho vihi zha ishima mo kahi za masinagogi na munahendza kulamuswa-lamuswa na ishima mo masokoni
It will be bad for you because you are like hidden graves People walk on them without knowing it,Shauri yenu Mana ninwi mu here mbira zirizo k'azinyesa ni mbira mana at'u ni kukira na haho makazizhoga hasiho kumanya
One of the experts in the law said to Jesus Teacher when you say these things about the Pharisees you are criticizing our group too,K'uzhona zho mwalimu mumwenga wa Sheria achambola kunena akiamba Mwalimu ukinena vizho be unafwangirira hatha siswi
Jesus answered It will be bad for you you experts in the law You make strict rules that are very hard for people to obeyYou try to force others to obey your rules But you yourselves dont even try to follow any of those rules,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba H'aya hatha ninwi alimu a Sheria nanwi shauri yenu mana munahika at'u mizigo iriyo k'amadima kuitsukula na nwi enye nwi k'amwangiza hatha mukono
It will be bad for you because you build tombs for the prophets But these are the same prophets your ancestors killed,Shauri yenu kwa kukala munaajengera mbira o manabii mariolagwa ni babizenu enye
And now you show all people that you agree with what your ancestors did They killed the prophets and you build tombs for the prophets,Kwa vizho vinanyesa kukala munaunga mukono gago garigohendwa ni o akare enu kwa kukala ao maakot'a o manabii nanwi munazijengera zo mbira zao
This is why God in his wisdom said I will send prophets and apostlesto them Some of my prophets and apostles will be killed by evil men Others will be treated badly,Kwa ut'u uu bai ulachu wa Mulungu waamba Mimi nindaahirikira manabii na ahumwi angine kahi zao mandaakot'a na angine mandaatesa
So you people who live now will be punished for the deaths of all the prophets who were killed since the beginning of the world,Kwa vizho bai o at'u a kizhazi kiki mandauzwa yo milatso ya o manabii iriyomwagwa hangu kuumbwa kwa urumwengu
You will be punished for the killing of AbelAnd you will be punished for the killing of Zechariahwho was killed between the altar and the Temple Yes I tell you that you people will be punished for them all,Kula hangu milatso ya Abeli muhaka ya Zakaria ariye walagwa mo ndani za ro Hekalu kahikahi za cho kijaja cha kulazhira sadaka na ho hat'u haeri Ee namwambira kamare cho kizhazi kiki kindauzwa maut'u gaga gosi
It will be bad for you you experts in the law You have taken away the key to learning about God You yourselves would not learn and you stopped others from learning too,Shauri yenu ninwi alimu a Sheria kwa kukala yo funguo ya kumanya mwaihala ninwi H'aya ninwi enye k'amwangirire na ao mariokala manangira nao mukiaziza
When Jesus went out the teachers of the law and the Pharisees began to give him much trouble They tried to make him answer questions about many things,Bai Jesu arihouka haho Mafarisayo na o alimu a Sheria makwatya kumupinga vii-vii na kumuza maswali manji jeri-jeri
They were trying to find a way to catch Jesus saying something wrong,kuno th'amaa yao ni kwamba kahi za kunenakwe akihenda kwele mamugwire
Many thousands of people came together There were so many people that they were stepping on each other Before Jesus spoke to the people he said to his followers Be careful of the yeast of the Pharisees I mean that they are hypocrites,Vikara wakathi uwo maalifu na maalifu ga at'u gadzazana hatha vikikala manakwalana-kwalana kamare Bai Jesu akikwatya kunena na o anafundzie kwandza akiamba Dzimanyirireni na yo ts'ats'u ya Mafarisayo ambayo ni ko kudzihendya kwao
Everything that is hidden will be shown and everything that is secret will be made known,Kila kit'u kidzichobiningizwa kindagunulwa na kila kit'u kidzichofitswa kindaonewa
What you say in the dark will be told in the light And what you whisper in a private room will be shouted from the top of the house,Kwa vizho bai gago murigonena kizani gandasikirwa mulangazani na zo njama murizonena kahi za nyumba zidzizofungwa miryango zindatangazwa zhomu zhenye
Then Jesus said to the people I tell you my friends dont be afraid of people They can kill the body but after that they can do nothing more to hurt you,Namwambira asenangu musogohe ao malagao mwiri na bada ya kuhenda gago k'amadima kumuhenda vingine
I will show you the one to fear You should fear God who has the power to kill you and also to throw you into hell Yes he is the one you should fear,Ela bai nindamwanyesa iye ariye ni mumwagohe Ninwi mwagoheni iye ambaye bada ya kuwalaga wo mwiri ana wadimi wa kuuhala na akautsuha Jehanamu Ee namwambira kamare mwagoheni iye
When birds are sold five small birds cost only two pennies But God does not forget any of them,Vidze samba utsongo utsano unaguzwa rahisi renyekidza ko k'ahana hatha kamwenga kariko Mulungu anadima kukasahau
Yes God even knows how many hairs you have on your head Dont be afraid You are worth much more than many birds,H'aya zho mbai hatha zo nyere zenu kidza Mulungu anazimanya isabuye Kwa vizho bai musogohe bule mana ninwi muna th'amani kukira iho ra utsongo
I tell you if you stand before others and are willing to say you believe in me then Iwill say that you belong to me I will say this in the presence of Gods angels,Jesu akienderera kunena na akiamba Namwambira kamare kila mut'u andiyenikubali mbere za at'u iye Mwana wa Mudamu naye andamukubali mbere za malaika a Mulungu
But if you stand before others and say you do not believe in me then I will say that you do not belong to me I will say this in the presence of Gods angels,Ela kila mut'u andiyenikahala mbere za at'u iye naye andakahalwa mbere za malaika a Mulungu
Whoever says something against the Son of Man can be forgiven But whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven,Na kila mut'u andiyenena rorosi kinyume cha ye Mwana wa Mudamu andasamehewa ela mut'u yoyosi andiyenena kufuru dzulu za Roho Mweri k'andasamehewa bule
When men bring you into the synagogues before the leaders and other important men dont worry about what you will say,Mukihirikwa masinagogini kwendashithakiwa hedu mukihirikwa mbere za athawali na maluwali be hatha musihende wasiwasi wa kuamba mundadzigidzyani hedu mundanenani
The Holy Spirit will teach you at that time what you should say,kwa kukala ye Roho Mweri andamufundisha saa iyo-iyo gago muviryago kunena
One of the men in the crowd said to Jesus Teacher our father just died and left some things for us Tell my brother to share them with me,Bai hachambola mut'u mumo kundini akimwamba Jesu Mwalimu mwambire ndugu yangu anigazhire wo ufwa nami
But Jesus said to him Who said I should be your judge or decide how to divide your fathers things between you two,Jesu akimudzigidzya akimwamba Musena h'aya ni h'ani ariyenihendya mulamuli hedu mugazhi wenu wa ufwa
Then Jesus said to them Be careful and guard against all kinds of greed People do not get life from the many things they own,Gonya akiambira osini akiamba Kalani matso na mudzimanyirire na kila samupuli ya th'amaa ya kuhendza vit'u kwa kukala wo uzima wa mut'u be k'aukahi za wo unji wa vit'u arizho nazho bule
Then Jesus used this story There was a rich man who had some land His land grew a very good crop of food,Gonya Jesu akiambozera fumbo riri akiamba Kwereko thajiri mumwenga ariye mundawe wazhalat'o sana
He thought to himself What will I do I have no place to keep all my crops,K'uzhona akidziuza kimoyo-moyo na kuamba Vino be hatha ndahendadze mut'u mino Mana be sina hat'u ha kuika mavuno gangu gosi
Then he said I know what I will do I will tear down my barns and build bigger barns I will put all my wheat and good things together in my new barns,Gonya akiamba Nindizhohenda ni vivi nindazivomola ziryahu ts'aga zangu na niake nyingine bomu zaidhi na bai nindawika wo mutsere wangu wosi na zho vit'u zhangu mumo
Then I can say to myself I have many good things stored I have saved enough for many years Rest eat drink and enjoy life,Nikigonya vizho h'aya nidziambe Mut'u uwe be una maut'u manji madzo-madzo gandigokuhala miaka minji kugoma vikara thuwa kuhurira urye unwe na ufwahirwe
But God said to that man Foolish man Tonight you will die So what about the things you prepared for yourself Who will get those things now,Ela Mulungu akimwamba Ii muzuzu we Usiku wa rero be rohoro rindamalwa h'aya zho vit'uzho urizho udzadziikira vindakala zha h'ani
This is how it will be for anyone who saves things only for himself To God that person is not rich,Bai Jesu akimarigiza na kuamba H'aya vivi be ndizho vindizhokala kwa mut'u yoyosi adziikiraye vit'u kuno ko si shaha kahi za maut'u ga Mulungu
Jesus said to his followers So I tell you dont worry about the things you need to livewhat you will eat or what you will wear,Gonya Jesu akiambira o anafundzie akiamba Kwa ut'u uwo wenye bai ninamwambira kukala musihende wasiwasi dzulu za maisha genu na miri yenu kala mundaryani hedu mundavalani
Life is more important than food and the body is more important than what you put on it,Mana uzima udzakira chakurya na mwiri nawo udzakira nguwo
Look at the birds They dont plant harvest or save food in houses or barns but God feeds them And you are worth much more than crows,Hedu lolani go makunguru K'agarima na k'agavuna k'agana hat'u ha kuika vit'u hedu hatha ts'aga ela Mulungu anagarisa Nanwi samba muna kima k'ana nyinji hatha kukira wo unyama
None of you can add any time to your life by worrying about it,Ni h'ani kahi zenu adimaye kuhenda wasiwasi hatha akangeza ngaa saa kahi za maishage
And if you cant do the little things why worry about the big things,Bai ikikala ut'u uthithe wenye dza uu k'amudima kuuhenda kwanoni muhende wasiwasi na go mangine
Think about how the wildflowers grow They dont work or make clothes for themselves But I tell you that even Solomon the great and rich king was not dressed as beautifully as one of these flowers,Hedu lolani zho maluwa gamerazho k'agahenda kazi hedu hatha kudzifumira nguwo Ela namwambira kamare hatha Selemani na ushahawe wosi be k'avwaliret'o dza gago maluwa
If God makes what grows in the field so beautiful what do you think he will do for you Thats just grassone day its alive and the next day someone throws it into a fire But God cares enough to make it beautiful Surely he will do much more for you Your faith is so small,H'enwi at'u a kuluhiro thithe nwi Kala Mulungu anadima kuzipamba zo nyasi za vuweni ambazo rero zi haha na machero zinatsufwa mohoni zishe h'e seze nwi Samba Mulungu andamuvika zaidhi
So dont always think about what you will eat or what you will drink Dont worry about it,Bai musithapethape kumala mundaryani hedu mundanwani musihende wasiwasi dzulu za maut'u gago
Thats what all those people who dont know God are always thinking about But your Father knows that you need these things,Mana gago gosi ndo at'u a urumwengu mamalago naye Babiyenu anamanya kukala maut'u gago munagamala
What you should be thinking about is Gods kingdom Then he will give you all these other things you need,Ela umaleni wo uthawaliwe kwandza na zho vingine mundangezezwa
Dont fear little flock Your Father wants to share his kingdom with you,Musogohe ninwi badhi thithe kwa kukala Babiyenu adzaona ni vidzo kumup'a wo uthawali
Sell the things you have and give that money to those who need it This is the only way you can keep your riches from being lost You will be storing treasure in heaven that lasts forever Thieves cant steal that treasure and moths cant destroy it,Kwa vizho bai guzani zho vit'u murizho nazho na zo p'esa muap'e akiya Nanwi kwa kuhenda vizho mundakala mudzadziikira akiba wo ushaha wenu ko mulunguni ambako be k'aundagoma mana k'akuna mwivi adimaye kuusongerera hehi na k'akuna p'oho madimao kudzawanonga
Your heart will be where your treasure is,Mana haho hariho zo akiba zenu be ndo handihokala yo mioyo yenu
Be ready Be fully dressed and have your lights shining,Jesu akienderera kunena na akiamba Dzifungeni nguwo na mukale thayari-thayari kuno mataa genu ganaaka
Be like servants who are waiting for their master to come home from a wedding party The master comes and knocks and the servants immediately open the door for him,Kalani here at'u mario manamuthariza bwana wao auye kula harusini ili andihouya na kubisha mamuvugulire kare
When their master sees that they are ready and waiting for him it will be a great day for those servants I can tell you without a doubt the master will get himself ready to serve a meal and tell the servants to sit down Then he will serve them,Bai baha ao ahumiki ambao ye bwana andakudzaathekeza mathayari-thayari Namwambira ujeri iye andavwala nguwo za kazi na aahumikire Iye andaambira makeresi na aambozeze chakurya
Those servants might have to wait until midnight or later for their master But they will be glad they did when he comes in and finds them still waiting,Kidza baha ao ahumiki ambao ye bwana wao hatha adzaho usiku wa manane hedu jogolo ra kwandza andakudzaathekeza mathayari-thayari
What would a homeowner do if he knew when a thief was coming You know he would not let the thief break in,Ela bai manyani vivi kalaho mwenye nyumba anadima kumanya zo saa andizokudzirira mwivi be k'angakubalire nyumbaye ibandwe bule angachesa matso kuirinda
So you also must be ready because the Son of Man will come at a time when you dont expect him,Bai ninwi nanwi dziikeni thayari wakathi wosi kwani Mwana wa Mudamu andakudza wakathi musiwoudhania
Peter said Lord did you tell this story for us or for all people,Kusikira vizho P'et'ero akimuza akimwamba Bwana fuambe rino fumbo unarambira siswi kare hedu unarambira at'u osini
The Lord said Who is the wise and trusted servant The master trusts one servant to give the other servants their food at the right time Who is the servant that the master trusts to do that work,Ye Bwana akidzigidzya akiamba Muhumiki mwaminifu na mulachu ni yuyahu ariye akirichirwa ahumiki andziye ni bwanawe aatsundze na kuap'a chakurya here vimalikanazho andahenda vizho
When the master comes and finds him doing the work he gave him it will be a day of blessing for that servant,Bai baha iye muhumiki iye ariye bwanawe andakudzamuthekeza anahenda vizho
I can tell you without a doubt the master will choose that servant to take care of everything he owns,Namwambira ujeri andamuhala na amuhendye akale muimirizi wa zho vit'u zhosi arizho nazho
But what will happen if that servant is evil and thinks his master will not come back soon He will begin to beat the other servants men and women He will eat and drink until he has had too much,Ela ye muhumiki akiamba kimoyo-moyo Naona ye bwana wangu k'andauya vikara bai akwache kuapiga o ahumiki andziye ache kwa alume na athuwe kurya na kunwa na kurea
Then the master will come when the servant is not ready at a time when the servant is not expecting him Then the master will punish that servant and send him away to be with the other people who dont obey,Bai ye bwana wa muhumiki yuyu andauya siku asiyodhania na saa asiyoimanya Naye afikaho andakudzamuhala na amutose visiku-visiku na amwike hamwenga na at'u masiokuluhirika
That servant knew what his master wanted him to do But he did not make himself ready or try to do what his master wanted So that servant will be punished very much,Muhumiki ambaye anamanya amalazho ye bwanawe ela ko k'adzithayarisha hedu kuhenda zho ahendzazho ye mubomuwe be muhumiki iye andapigwa ut'u wa kwangalaza
But what about the servant who does not know what his master wants He also does things that deserve punishment But he will get less punishment than the servant who knew what he should do Whoever has been given much will be responsible for much Much more will be expected from the one who has been given more,Ela muhumiki ariye k'amanya kala ye bwanawe anahendzani kidza ahende maut'u garigo ganavirya apigwe bai muhumiki iye k'andapigwa zhomu Kila mut'u ariyegerwa vinji andaiswa vinji kidza iye ariyeikirwa amana vit'u vinji bai mut'u iye andamalwa vinji zaidhi
Jesus continued speaking I came to bring fire to the world I wish it were already burning,Jesu akiamba Mut'u mimi nakudzaigwiza moho ii dhunia nami naaza ukale hatha ni gwuu kare
There is a kind of baptismthat I must suffer through I feel very troubled until it is finished,Ela bai nina ubat'izo uriwo niniukirire yani kifwa nami be nabudzyika muhaka kit'u kiki kindihomarigizika
Do you think I came to give peace to the world No I came to divide the world,Nwi enye munaona nakudza nirehe dheri hano dhuniani Hatha Sidzire nirehe dheri ela namwambira nakudza nihende at'u magazhane
From now on a family of five will be divided three against two and two against three,Kwani kula vivi vikara na kuenderera at'u atsano a nyumba mwenga mandagazhana Ahahu mandakira kumwenga na o airi mandakira upande wao
A father and son will be divided,Bimut'u andathengana na mwanawe wa kilume ye mwana wa kilume naye andathengana na babaye Mimut'u andathengana na mwanawe wa kiche na ye mwanangwa wa kiche andathengana na mameye Mizhala andathengana na mukaza mwanawe na ye mukaza mwana wa mut'u andathengana na mizhalaye
Then Jesus said to the people When you see clouds growing bigger in the west you say A rainstorm is coming And soon it begins to rain,Jesu akinena na ro kundi ra at'u akiamba Ninwi mukiona ingu ridzagit'ana ko mutserero wa dzuwa nikuamba Indanya na ikanya jeri
When you feel the wind begin to blow from the south you say It will be a hot day And you are right,H'aya na p'eho ya mwakani ipigaho ninwi nikuamba Kundahenda kazikazi na vikakala vizho jeri
You hypocrites You can understand the weather Why dont you understand what is happening now,At'u a kudzihendya nwi Munamanya kulola mulunguni na ts'i na mukamanya kundahendeka ut'u wani Ela mbona mivano ya makathi hurigo k'amumanya kuilola
Why cant you decide for yourselves what is right,Kwanoni k'amulola nwi enye mukamanya ririro karakara kuhenda
Suppose someone is suing you and you are both going to court Try hard to settle it on the way If you dont settle it you may have to go before the judge And the judge will hand you over to the officer who will throw you into jail,Mut'u akikala anakuhirika kotini jeza here wadimazho upatane naye mo ngirani Kala k'undahenda vizho iye andakuvurura muhaka kwa jaji jaji akulazhe kwa shikari na shikari akutsuhe jela
I tell you you will not get out of there until you have paid every cent you owe,Nami nakwambira k'undambola uwe muhaka ugonye kuriha p'esa zosi
Some people there with Jesus at that time told him about what had happened to some worshipers from Galilee Pilate had them killed Their blood was mixed with the blood of the animals they had brought for sacrificing,Bai kahi za wakathi uryahu were hana at'u ambao mamwambira Jesu dzulu za Agalilaya ambao Liwali P'ilato watsanganya yo milatso yao na yo ya sadaka zao
Jesus answered Do you think this happened to those people because they were more sinful than all other people from Galilee,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Be munaona kukala ano Agalilaya were mana dambi kukira ao Agalilaya angine kwa kukala maona t'endere
No they were not But if you dont decide now to change your lives you will all be destroyed like those people,Hatha bule Namwambira kamare musihothubu bai ninwi nyosi nanwi mundafwa dza ao
And what about those 18 people who died when the tower of Siloam fell on them Do you think they were more sinful than everyone else in Jerusalem,Hedu munaona arya at'u kumi na anane mariofwa kwa kugwererwa ni munara ko Siloamu were mana makosa zaidhi kukira o at'u angine osi matoao ko Jerusalemu
They were not But I tell you if you dont decide now to change your lives you will all be destroyed too,Hatha bule Namwambira kamare musihothubu bai ninwi nyosi nanwi mundafwa dza ao
Jesus told this story A man had a fig tree He planted it in his garden He came looking for some fruit on it but he found none,Gonya Jesu akiambozera fumbo riri akiamba Kwereko mut'u mumwenga ariyekala ana mutini ariwoulaya kahi za mundawe wa mizabibu Bai siku mwenga achendamala matunda ela k'endereona hatha mwenga
He had a servant who took care of his garden So he said to his servant I have been looking for fruit on this tree for three years but I never find any Cut it down Why should it waste the ground,K'uzhona zho bai akimwamba ye mutsundziwe wa wo munda Lola dzafisha miaka mihahu kudza nikimala matunda kula kwa uu mutini H'aya utheme uugwage Kwanoni uthuwe kwanonga mutsanga bule
But the servant answered Master let the tree have one more year to produce fruit Let me dig up the dirt around it and fertilize it,Kusikira vizho ye mutsundzi wa wo munda akimudzigidzya akiamba Bwana up'e mwaka mungine mumwenga nawo nindaurimira na niwangize mbolea
Maybe the tree will have fruit on it next year If it still does not produce then you can cut it down,Mwaka udzao ukizhala vidzo h'aa k'auzhalire ndzo uutheme
Jesus taught in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath day,Bai siku mwenga iriyokala ni Sabato Jesu were anafundisha kahi za mwenga ra go masinagogi
A woman was there who had an evil spirit inside her It had made the woman crippled for 18 years Her back was always bent she could not stand up straight,Na lola mumo kahi za ro sinagogi mwere muna mwanamuche ariye were ana p'ep'o ariyemulunya kwa miaka kumi na minane Mwanamuche yuyu were akizama-zama naye were k'adima kugoloka wima kamare
When Jesus saw her he called to her Woman you have been made free from your sickness,Bai Jesu arihomona wamwiha ho mbere na akimwamba M'ama udzavugulwa kula kahi za ukongoo
He laid his hands on her and immediately she was able to stand up straight She began praising God,Gonya akimuikira mikono na haho henye akigoloka na akikwatya kumulika Mulungu
The synagogue leader was angry because Jesus healed on the Sabbath day He said to the people There are six days for work So come to be healed on one of those days Dont come for healing on the Sabbath day,Wee kuona vizho ye mubomu wa ro sinagogi akitsukirwa kwa kukala Jesu were adzahoza kahi za yo siku ya Sabato Bai akiambira o at'u akiamba Hana siku t'andahu ndzima ziviryazo at'u kuhenda kazi kwa vizho ndzoni siku zizo mudze muhozwe ela si yo siku ya Sabato bule
The Lord answered You people are hypocrites All of you untie your work animals and lead them to drink water every dayeven on the Sabbath day,Ye Bwana akimudzigidzya akiamba H'enwi adzihendyi Ni h'ani hano asiyevugula ng'ombeye hedu ndzowewe kwendaneswa kwa kukala ni siku ya Sabato
This woman that I healed is a true descendant of AbrahamBut Satan has held her for 18 years Surely it is not wrong for her to be made free from her sickness on a Sabbath day,Bai kala nwi munahendazho kwanoni yuno mwanamuche ariye ni mwana wa Burahemu kidza ariye wakelesizwa ni Shethani kwa miaka kumi na minane asivugulwe kahi za siku ya Sabato
When Jesus said this all those who were criticizing him felt ashamed of themselves And all the people were happy for the wonderful things he was doing,Bai Jesu arihodzigidzya samupuli ii o mahadhuie osi masala matso kodoo kumulola ela bai o at'u angine osi were manafwahizwa kwa go maut'u ga nguma arigokala anagahenda
Then Jesus said What is Gods kingdom like What can I compare it to,Gonya Jesu akiamba Uno uthawali wa Mulungu be hatha udzahalana na noni Hatha nindauhalanisha na noni be vino
Gods kingdom is like the seed of the mustard plant Someone plants this seed in their garden The seed grows and becomes a tree and the birds build nests on its branches,Uwo uthawali udzahalana na katembe ka haradali kariko mut'u mumwenga wakahala achendakalaya mundani mwakwe Bai katembe kako kakikula hatha kakikala muhi na unyama wa kubururuka ukidzaaka vitsunji kahi za zho vitaizhe
Jesus said again What can I compare Gods kingdom with,Gonya Jesu akiuyira kaheri kuamba Uno uthawali wa Mulungu be hatha nindauhalanisha na noni
It is like yeast that a woman mixes into a big bowl of flour to make bread The yeast makes all the dough rise,Uthawali wa mulunguni udzahalana na ts'ats'u iriyohalwa ni mwanamuche akivugira p'ishi t'ahu za unga wa ngano na ukikutuka wosi
Jesus was teaching in every town and village He continued to travel toward Jerusalem,Bai Jesu arihokala a ngirani kwenda ko mudzi wa Jerusalemu wakirira kahi za midzi mibomu na midzi mithithe-mithithe kuafundisha at'u
Someone said to him Lord how many people will be saved Only a few,Bai mut'u mumwenga akimuza Jesu akiamba Bwana fuambe ni at'u achache thu ndo mandiookoka Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba
The door to heaven is narrow Try hard to enter it Many people will want to enter there but they will not be able to go in,Sitani zhomu mwangire kukirira uwo muryango mufufu kwa kukala namwambira kamare anji mandajeza kwangira ela k'amandadima bule
If a man locks the door of his house you can stand outside and knock on the door but he wont open it You can say Sir open the door for us But he will answer I dont know you Where did you come from,Haho ye mwenye nyumba akiungarara na kuusindika wo muryango be ninwi mundaima ko ndze kuno munaamba Bwana huvugulire Ela iye andamudzigidzya aambe At'u ninwi simumanya kala mu ano h'ani na mudzambola nahi
Then you will say We ate and drank with you You taught in the streets of our town,Nanwi mundadzigidzya muambe Samba fwarya na kunwa hosi we Na kidza uwe ukifundisha kahi za zo barabara za midzi yehu
Then he will say to you I dont know you Where did you come from Get away from me You are all people who do wrong,Ela iye andadzigidzya aambe At'u ninwi simumanya kala mu ano h'ani na mudzambolahi H'aya nihaukirani mino ahendi a mai nwi
You will see Abraham Isaac Jacob and all the prophets in Gods kingdom But you will be left outside There you will cry and grind your teeth with pain,Na kuko mundarira na kwafuna meno haho mundihomona Burahemu Isaka na Jakobu hamwenga na o manabii osini ma kahi za wo uthawali wa Mulungu ela nwi enye nwi mudzatsufwa ndze
People will come from the east west north and south They will sit down at the table in Gods kingdom,At'u mandambola mwambolero wa dzuwa na mutserero wa dzuwa na kwa vuri na kwa mwaka madze makeresi chakuryani kahi za uthawali wa Mulungu
People who have the lowest place in life now will have the highest place in Gods kingdom And people who have the highest place now will have the lowest place in Gods kingdom,Nanwi lolani hana at'u ambao ni a mwisho mario mandakala a kwandza na ao a kwandza mandakala a mwisho
Just then some Pharisees came to Jesus and said Go away from here and hide Herod wants to kill you,Bai wakathi uwo-uwo vizho Mafarisayo angine makudzamwambira Jesu makiamba Hauke haha na wende hat'u hohosi hangine kwa kukala Herode anamala akwalage be vivi
Jesus said to them Go tell that foxToday and tomorrow I am forcing demons out of people and finishing my work of healing Then the next day the work will be finished,Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Endani mukarambire ro kala kukala Ninamboza p'ep'o na kuhoza at'u vivi rero na machero na indihofika siku ya hahu ndagonya kazi yangu
After that I must go because all prophets should die in Jerusalem,Ela hatha vizho suthi nienderere na charo changu vivi rero na machero na muhondo kwa kukala k'azhadimikika nabii afwe hat'u hangine hohosi hasihokala Jerusalemu
Jerusalem Jerusalem You kill the prophets You stone to death the people God has sent to you How many times I wanted to help your people I wanted to gather them together as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings But you did not let me,Bai Jesu arihogonya kunena vizho akikwacha kuashikithikira at'u a Jerusalemu Akiamba H'enwi at'u a Jerusalemu Kazi yenu ni kualaga manabii na kuakot'a mawe ahumiki a Mulungu mahumwao kwenu Ni mara nyingahi nidzizomala kumukundzumanya hamwenga here k'uk'u aafinikirazho anae na mahahage ela mudzakahala
Now your home will be left completely empty I tell you you will not see me again until that time when you will say Welcome God bless the one who comes in the name of the Lord,Lolani mudzarichirwa enye nyumba yenu ikale gandzo Nami namwambira kamare kukala k'amundanona kaheri muhaka wakathi mundihokudzaamba Naahaswe iye adzaye kwa dzina ra Bwana
On a Sabbath day Jesus went to the home of a leading Pharisee to eat with him The people there were all watching him very closely,Siku mwenga iriyokala ni Sabato Jesu wakwendarya chakurya kahi za nyumba ya mut'u ariye were ni kahi za o abomu a Mafarisayo Vikara o Mafarisayo makikala manamulola kala andahenda ut'u wani
A man with a bad diseasewas there in front of him,Na lola ho mbere za Jesu were hana mwanamulume ariyekala ana ukongo wa magulu na mikono kwadzala
Jesus said to the Pharisees and experts in the law Is it right or wrong to heal on the Sabbath day,Jesu akiauza o alimu a Sheria na o Mafarisayo akiamba Vidze Sheria yehu inaruhusu kuhoza mut'u siku ya Sabato
But they would not answer his question So he took the man and healed him Then he sent the man away,O at'u hat'u ha kumudzigidzya o makimunyamalira zii Kwa vizho Jesu akimugwira mukono ye mukongo akimuhoza gonya akimwamba ende mudzini
Jesus said to the Pharisees and teachers of the law If your son or work animal falls into a well on the Sabbath day you know you would pull him out immediately,Gonya Jesu akiagalukira o alimu a Sheria na Mafarisayo akiauza akiamba Ni h'ani hano ariye anadima kuricha ndzowewe hedu ng'ombeye idziyogwa ndani ya kisima asiyamboze kwa kukala ni siku ya Sabato
The Pharisees and teachers of the law could say nothing against what he said,Nao k'amapatire ra kumudzigidzya bule
Then Jesus noticed that some of the guests were choosing the best places to sit So he told this story,Jesu arihoona viryahu marizhokala o ajeni manawaniira vihi zha ishima ho chakuryani waaadha kivivi
When someone invites you to a wedding dont sit in the most important seat They may have invited someone more important than you,Mut'u akikusunga harusi usende ukakelesi zho vihi zha ishima p'ore hakakala were hadzasungwa mut'u aishimiwaye kukira uwe
And if you are sitting in the most important seat they will come to you and say Give this man your seat Then you will have to move down to the last place and be embarrassed,kwani ye mwenye mudzi adziyemusunga anadima akadza akaamba Hedu ungarara umuhise yuyu cho kihi nawe ugwirwe ni haya ukakeresi zho vihi zha ts'ini
So when someone invites you go sit in the seat that is not important Then they will come to you and say Friend move up here to this better place What an honor this will be for you in front of all the other guests,Ela bai usungwaho harusi enda ukakeresi zho vihi zha ts'ini ili iye adziyekusunga akikona haho anadima kuamba Musena hinde ukakeresi kahi za vihi vidzo zaidhi hedu Na vivi vindakup'a ishima mbere za o ajeni andziyo osi
Everyone who makes themselves important will be made humble But everyone who makes themselves humble will be made important,Mana iye ahendzaye kudzanula andatserezwa na iye adzitserezaye bai andanulwa
Then Jesus said to the Pharisee who had invited him When you give a lunch or a dinner dont invite only your friends brothers relatives and rich neighbors At another time they will pay you back by inviting you to eat with them,Gonya Jesu akimwamba ye mwenye mudzi Uikaho sherehe ya chakurya cha mutsana hedu cha dzulo usiasunge asenao hedu nduguzo hedu mbarizo hedu majiranio mashaha kwa kukala ukihenda vizho ao nao mandakusunga na vindakala ni here madziokuriha
Instead when you give a feast invite the poor the crippled and the blind,Ela uusaho sherehe bai asunge at'u akiya vidende virema na atsowi a matso
Then you will have great blessings because these people cannot pay you back They have nothing But God will reward you at the time when all godly people rise from death,Ukihenda vizho undahaswa haho wakathi at'u a Mulungu mandihofufulwa kwani ao akiya vidende virema na atsowi a matso k'amadima kukuriha bule ela Mulungu anadima kukuriha
One of the men sitting at the table with Jesus heard these things The man said to him It will be a great blessing for anyone to eat a meal in Gods kingdom,Mumwenga kahi za ao mariokala haho arihosikira maneno gago wamwamba Jesu Be k'amana raha sana ao mandioirya yo sikuk'uu kahi za uthawali wa Mulungu
Jesus said to him A man gave a big dinner He invited many people,Ela Jesu akimwamba Kwereko na mut'u mumwenga ariyekala anamala kuusa sherehe bomu sana naye akisunga at'u anji jeri-jeri
When it was time to eat he sent his servant to tell the guests Come The food is ready,Bai wakathi irihokala yo haja i thayari kamare yuyahu mut'u wahuma muhumikiwe akaambire o asungwa kukala maut'u be ga thayari
But all the guests said they could not come Each one made an excuse The first one said I have just bought a field so I must go look at it Please excuse me,Ela osi makimboza visingwa kukala k'amandadima kufika bule ko hajani Ye wa kwandza akiamba Mut'u mimi dzagula hat'u na kwa zhozhosi suthi nende nikahalole kwa vizho nashikithika sindadima kudza bule
Another man said I have just bought five pairs of work animals I must go and try them out Please excuse me,Na wa hiri akiamba Mimi be dzagula ndzao kumi za kuhendera kazi hatha vivi unonazho be dzakala ninenda nikazijeze kwa vizho nashikithika sindadima kudza bule
A third man said I just got married I cant come,Na mungine ye akiamba Dzahala muche kwa vizho ko kudza be ni vikomu
So the servant returned and told his master what happened The master was angry He said Hurry Go into the streets and alleys of the town Bring me the poor the crippled the blind and the lame,Ye muhumiki akiuya ko kwa bwanawe achendamwambira gosi marigo were o asungwa madzamwambira Kusikira vizho ye mwenye haja watsukirwa zhomu sana akimwamba ye muhumikiwe Enda mara mwenga hatha kahi za wo mudzi na udze na o akiya vidende virema na hatha atsowi a matso mario kahi za barabara za wo mudzi na zho vigira-vigira kahi za go madzumba
Later the servant said to him Master I did what you told me to do but we still have places for more people,Ye muhumiki akihenda vizho na arihouya akidzaamba Viryahu udzizhonihuma be dzavihenda ela kuchere na nafasi
The master said to the servant Go out to the highways and country roads Tell the people there to come I want my house to be full,Bai ye mwenye yo sherehe akimwamba ye muhumiki Enda kuko mabarabarani na vigira zha magulu na ukaasitire at'u madze ili ii haja yangu idzale
None of those people I invited first will get to eat any of this food,Kwani namwambira kamare k'ahana hatha mumwenga kahi za ao nirioasunga sherehe chaho andekudzathatha kiki chakurya changu
Many people were traveling with Jesus He said to them,Na arihokala Jesu akwendani kwereko na kundi bomu ra at'u ririro were rinamuthuwa Bai Jesu akiagalukira na akiambira
If you come to me but will not leave your family you cannot be my follower You must love me more than your father mother wife children brothers and sisterseven more than your own life,Mut'u yoyosi ahendzaye kunithuwa mimi suthi anihendze mimi kukira viryahu aahendzazho babaye na mameye muchewe na anae nduguze na hatha ye mwenye ndo akale mwanafundzi wangu
Whoever will not carry the cross that is given to them when they follow me cannot be my follower,Na mut'u yoyosi ariye k'adima kuhala musalabawe na kunithuwa k'adima kukala mwanafundzi wangu
If you wanted to build a building you would first sit down and decide how much it would cost You must see if you have enough money to finish the job,Vidze mumwenga wenu kala anamala kuaka munara andaandza kuaka hasiho kukelesi na kugwaga kitswa amanye kala ana p'esa za kuthosha kuakira wo munara
If you dont do that you might begin the work but you would not be able to finish And if you could not finish it everyone would laugh at you,Kwani akidziakira hasiho kuaza anadima akakala k'andauivisha bule bada ya kuika wo musinji na kila andekira na kuona zho virizho andamutseka
They would say This man began to build but he was not able to finish,Kwani o at'u mandaamba H'aya wadzihendesha kuaka vino zhamuremeza
If a king is going to fight against another king first he will sit down and plan If he has only 10000 men he will try to decide if he is able to defeat the other king who has 20000 men,Na muthawali endaho na shikari alifu kumi kupiga k'ondo muthawali mwandziwe ariye ana shikari alifu mirongo miri jeri wenye iye ni kukelesi kwandza akaoja kala anadima kumudhima ye mwandziwe na o shikari alifu kumi
If he thinks he cannot defeat the other king he will send some men to ask for peace while that kings army is still far away,Akiona kukala k'andamwadima bai andahuma athumia mende makamone ye muthawali kabila k'adzafika hehi ili madime kurya amani
It is the same for each of you You must leave everything you have to follow me If not you cannot be my follower,Bai kahi za ngira iyo nanwi k'ahana adimaye kukala mwanafundzi wangu asihoandza kuricha maut'u gosi arigo nago
Salt is a good thing But if the salt loses its salty taste you cant make it salty again,Munyu ni mudzo ela ukikala udzauya k'aukoza kaheri k'ahana ngira idimayo kuuhendya ukakoza
It is worth nothing You cant even use it as dirt or dung People just throw it away,hatha virizho haho ni kutsufwa thu kwa kukala k'auna faidha kwa wo mutsanga hedu hatha kwa mbolea Mwenye masikiro naasikire
Many tax collectors and sinners came to listen to Jesus,Vikara athozi a kodi na at'u angine anji mario k'amahendzwa ni at'u makala makidza makimusirikiza Jesu wakathi arihokala anafundisha
Then the Pharisees and the teachers of the law began to complain Look this manwelcomes sinners and even eats with them,Ela o Mafarisayo na alimu a Sheria makikwatya kunung'unika na kuamba Ii mut'u yuno hatha anakaribisha at'u mario k'amahendzwa ni at'u na hatha anarya hamwenga nao
Then Jesus told them this story,Jesu arihosikira gago waambozera fumbo akiamba
Suppose one of you has 100 sheep but one of them gets lost What will you do You will leave the other 99 sheep there in the field and go out and look for the lost sheep You will continue to search for it until you find it,Vidze mumwenga wenu akikala ana ng'ondzi gana mwenga gonya angamize mwenga nikuhendadze Samba nikuziricha zo mirongo chenda na chenda akendaidengereka yo idziyongamika hatha akayona
And when you find it you will be very happy You will carry it,Bai ayonaho nikuhenda raha zhomu akayanula
home go to your friends and neighbors and say to them Be happy with me because I found my lost sheep,akenda nayo mudzini Gonya akifika ko mudzini ni kuaiha asenae na majiranige madze hamwenga naye ni kuambira Asena nafusherehekee hosi mana yo ng'ondzi iriyongamika be nidzayona
In the same way I tell you heaven is a happy place when one sinner decides to change There is more joy for that one sinner than for 99 good people who dont need to change,Namwambira kahi za ngira iyo vizho kundakala na fwahiro bomu kuko mulunguni dzulu za mwenye dambi mumwenga adziyethubu kukira dzulu za at'u ahachi mirongo chenda na chenda masiomala kuthubu
Suppose a woman has ten silver coinsbut she loses one of them She will take a light and clean the house She will look carefully for the coin until she finds it,Kwani ni mwanamuche hiye adimaye kukala ana shilingi kumi za fedhana angamize mwenga akatsailola Mut'u iye andagwiza taa gonya aishere yosi yo nyumba na aimale yo shilingi muhaka ayone
And when she finds it she will call her friends and neighbors and say to them Be happy with me because I have found the coin that I lost,Na ayonaho yo shilingi ni kuaiha asenae na majiranige hamwenga na kuamba Lolani benwi iryahu shilingi iriyokala yangamika dzayona Kwa vizho hatha ndzoni fusherehekee kwa iyo raha niriyo nayo
In the same way its a happy time for the angels of God when one sinner decides to change,Na vizho ndo virizho hatha ko mulunguni wakathi mwenye dambi adziuthaho na kuziricha dambize be malaika a Mulungu ni kudzalwa ni fwahiro sana
Then Jesus said There was a man who had two sons,Jesu akienderera kuamba Kwakala na mut'u mumwenga ariyekala na ana airi a kilume
The younger son said to his father Give me now the part of your property that I am supposed to receive someday So the father divided his wealth between his two sons,Yuyahu muvaha akimwamba babaye Baba hugazhire wo ufwa wehu Kwa vizho ye bimut'u akihala yo mali akiagazhizha o anae
A few days later the younger son gathered up all that he had and left He traveled far away to another country and there he wasted his money living like a fool,K'avihalire siku nyinji yuyahu muvaha akihala yo mali yosi akiiguza Thiye akiuka achenda Wakwenda hatha ts'i ya kure na kwao kuko achendanonga-nonga p'esaze zosi kwa kuishi maisha ga uzindzi
After he spent everything he had there was a terrible famine throughout the country He was hungry and needed money,Arihokala adzagonya kuzirya zosi zo p'esa kukigwa ndzala bomu kahi za ts'i iyo Naye akikala atsululu
So he went and got a job with one of the people who lived there The man sent him into the fields to feed pigs,Kwa vizho achendagwirana na mut'u mumwenga wa ts'i iyo na achandhikwa kibaruwa cha kurisa nguluwe
He was so hungry that he wanted to eat the food the pigs were eating But no one gave him anything,Naye were ana ndzala hatha go makanda garigokala ganariwa ni o nguluwe akigamizira mahe K'ahambolere mut'u ariyemup'a kaut'u kokosi ka kurya
The son realized that he had been very foolish He thought All my fathers hired workers have plenty of food But here I am almost dead because I have nothing to eat,Bai mwishowe arihokeresi na kudziuza akiamba Ni ahumiki angahi a baba maryao kutsuha mino nalaha haha
I will leave and go to my father I will say to him Father I have sinned against God and have done wrong to you,Mut'u mimi ndahauka haha nende kwa baba na nikamwambe vivi Baba mimi namukosera Mulungu na nikikukosera uwe nawe
I am no longer worthy to be called your son But let me be like one of your hired workers,Nadzona sivirya kamare kuifwa mwanao kwa vizho nihendya here muhendzio wa kazi
So he left and went to his father,Gonya akiuka akikwatya kwenda kwa babaye Bai arihokala achere kure na ho mudzini babaye akimona na akidzalwa ni mbazi akimudhana achendamudzagamira akimudonera
The son said Father I have sinned against God and have done wrong to you I am no longer worthy to be called your son,Haho ndo ye mwana akimwambiriza babaye vivi Baba mut'u mimi namukosera Mulungu na nikikukosera uwe nawe kwa vizho sivirya kuifwa mwanao bule
But the father said to his servants Hurry Bring the best clothes and put them on him Also put a ring on his finger and good sandals on his feet,Ela ye bimut'u akiaiha ahumikie akiamba H'aya hendani haraka murehe nguwo mbidzo kahi za zosi mumuvike gonya muhale p'ehe na virahu mumuvike
And bring our best calf and kill it so that we can celebrate with plenty to eat,Gonya kakihaleni kiryahu kidzao cha kunona mukitsindze fusherehekee
My son was dead but now he is alive again He was lost but now he is found So they began to have a party,Mana mwanangu yuyu were ni here ariyefwa vino adzauya moyo kidza were ni here ariyengamika vino adzaoneka Nao makikwatya kusherehekea jeri-jeri
The older son had been out in the field When he came near the house he heard the sound of music and dancing,Ganakala gaga ye mukulu were a mundani bai arihokala akuuyani anafika hehi na ho mudzini anasirikiza vivi akisikira londzo lwa ngoma na misindo ya at'u manavina
So he called to one of the servant boys and asked What does all this mean,Bai akiiha muhumiki mumwenga akimuza akiamba Kunani ko mudzini
The boy said Your brother has come back and your father killed the best calf to eat He is happy because he has his son back safe and sound,Ye muhumiki akimudzigidzya akiamba Ye muvahao adzire kwa vizho babayo adzamutsindzira kiryahu kidzao cha kunona mana adzamuhokera muzima
The older son was angry and would not go in to the party So his father went out and begged him to come in,Kusikira vizho ye mukulu wa mut'u akitsukirwa vii-vii hatha akikahala kuhangira ho mudzini Ndo babaye achendamungolangola
But he said to his father Look for all these years I have worked like a slave for you I have always done what you told me to do and you never gave me even a young goat for a party with my friends,ela ye mwana akidzigidzya akiamba Lola miaka ii yosi nidzakuhumikira uwe dza here mutumwa sidzabanda amuriyo hatha lumwenga nawe k'udzanip'a hatha kabuzi nikausa sherehe na asenangu
But then this son of yours comes home after wasting your money on prostitutes and you kill the best calf for him,Ela mwanao yuyu arenonga-nonga maliyo na malaya adzihokudza udzamutsindzira cho kidzao cha kunona
His father said to him Oh my son you are always with me and everything I have is yours,Ye bimut'u akimudzigidzya akimwamba Mwanangu uwe siku zosi u haha nami na kila kit'u changu ni chako hatha uwe
But this was a day to be happy and celebrate Your brother was dead but now he is alive He was lost but now he is found,Ela ni karakara kuusa sherehe na kuhenda raha mana nduguyo yuyu were ni here ariyefwa ela vino adzauya moyo kaheri were wangamika ela vino adzaoneka
Jesus said to his followers Once there was a rich man He hired a manager to take care of his business Later he learned that his manager was cheating him,Jesu akiambira o anafundzie akiamba Kwereko mut'u mumwenga ariyekala ni shaha naye were ana muimiriziwe wa kazi ariye were anaambwa kukala ananonga-nonga mali za thajiriwe
So he called the manager in and said to him I have heard bad things about you Give me a report of what you have done with my money You cant be my manager anymore,Kwa vizho ye thajiriwe akimwiha akimuza akiamba Ni maut'u gani gano nisikirago dzuluzo H'aya namala nimanye isabu yosi kwani k'udima kukala muimirizi wangu kaheri
So the manager thought to himself What will I do My master is taking my job away from me I am not strong enough to dig ditches I am too proud to beg,Ye muimirizi akiaza Mut'u mimi yuyu thajiri wangu be andanifuta be hatha ndahendadze Sina nguvu za kugwira jembe na kuvoya-voya be na haya nako
I know what I will do I will do something to make friends so that when I lose my job they will welcome me into their homes,Bai nindizhohenda navimanya ili nifutwaho kazi kisha nikale na asena mandionikaribisha kwao midzini
So the manager called in each person who owed the master some money He asked the first one How much do you owe my master,Kwa vizho akiaiha o at'u osi mariokala manaiswa ni thajiriwe Marihokudza akimuza ye wa kwandza akiamba Thajiri wangu anakwisa kiasi chani
He answered I owe him 100 jarsof olive oil The manager said to him Here is your bill Hurry Sit down and make the bill less Write 50 jars,Akiamba Ananisa madebe gana ga mafuha ga muzeituni Ye muimirizi akimwamba H'aya hala ro karatasi rinyesaro dheniro Keresi mara mwenga na uore madebe mirongo mitsano
Then the manager asked another one How much do you owe my master He answered I owe him 100 measuresof wheat Then the manager said to him Here is your bill you can make it less Write 80 measures,Gonya akimugalukira ye wa hiri akimwamba H'aya we nawe unaiswa ut'u wani Akiamba Magunia gana ga ngano Ye muimirizi akimwamba H'aya hala yo risitiyo na uore magunia mirongo minane
Later the master told the dishonest manager that he had done a smart thing Yes worldly people are smarter in their business with each other than spiritual people are,Na bai ye thajiri akimulika ye muimirizi mujanja kwa kukala wahumira ujanja kwani at'u a urumwengu uu ni alachu kala manahumikirana kukira at'u maumanyao ujeri
I tell you use the worldly things you have now to make friends for later Then when those things are gone you will be welcomed into a home that lasts forever,Jesu akienderera kuamba Bai namwambira dzimalireni asena kwa kuhumira ushaha wa haha urumwenguni ili hatha wo ushaha ugomaho mudime kukaribishwa kahi za mudzi wa kare na kare
Whoever can be trusted with small things can also be trusted with big things Whoever is dishonest in little things will be dishonest in big things too,Mut'u ariye ni mwaminifu kwa maut'u machache andakala mwaminifu hatha kwa maut'u mabomu na mut'u ariye ni mulongo kwa maut'u mathithe andakala mulongo hatha kwa maut'u mabomu
If you cannot be trusted with worldly riches you will not be trusted with the true riches,Bai kala k'amudima kukala aaminifu kwa ushaha wa haha urumwenguni ni h'ani ye andiyemuikira ushaha wa jeri
And if you cannot be trusted with the things that belong to someone else you will not be given anything of your own,Na kala k'amudima kuaminika na kit'u cha mut'u vidze ni h'ani andemukuluhira na amup'e vit'u virizho zhenu enye
You cannot serve two masters at the same time You will hate one master and love the other Or you will be loyal to one and not care about the other You cannot serve God and Moneyat the same time,K'akuna muhumiki adimaye kuahendera kazi mathajiri airi Kwani akihenda vizho andamuhendza mumwenga ela ye mungine andamumena Mumwenga andamuhendera kaziye t'ot'ot'o ela ye mungine andamuvudhya K'amudima kumuhumikira Mulungu na kuno munahumikira mali
The Pharisees were listening to all these things They criticized Jesus because they all loved money,Bai o Mafarisayo makigasikira gaga gosi na makimutseka kwa kukala ao be were manahendza p'esa sana
Jesus said to them You make yourselves look good in front of people But God knows what is really in your hearts What people think is important is worth nothing to God,Jesu arihosikira vizho akiambira Ninwi ndinwi mudzihendeshao kukala mu at'u adzo mbere za at'u ela Mulungu be anamanya virizho kahi za mioyo yenu kwani kuhendza p'esa kunadima kuonekana kukala ni kit'u sana ela ko mbere za Mulungu k'avimufwaha bule
Before John the Baptizer came people were taught the Law of Moses and the writings of the prophets But since the time of John the Good News about Gods kingdom is being told And everyone is trying hard to get into it,Sheria ya Musa na Maoro ga manabii zhakalako na kidza vikihakira wakathi wa Johana Mubat'izaji Bai kula wakathi uwo hatha vivi be Uvoro Udzo dzulu za uthawali wa Mulungu unaambirizwa at'u na kila mut'u anajeza zhadimikikazho awangire
But even the smallest part of a letter in the law cannot be changed It would be easier for heaven and earth to pass away,Ela ni rahisi mulunguni na ts'i kukira kuriko kuhala hatha kadono kamwenga ka yo Sheria na kukausa
Any man who divorces his wife and marries another woman is guilty of adultery And the man who marries a divorced woman is also guilty of adultery,Kila amurichaye muchewe na kuhala muche mungine hedu mut'u ahalaye muche wa kurihira nikukala anazinga
Jesus said There was a rich man who always dressed in the finest clothes He was so rich that he was able to enjoy all the best things every day,Jesu akienderera kuamba Kwereko mut'u mumwenga ariyekala ni thajiri sana naye were avala nguwo za zambarau na za kitani safi Chakuryache chere ni cha hali ya dzulu
There was also a very poor man named Lazarus Lazarus body was covered with sores He was often put by the rich mans gate,Ho muryangoni hakwe were ni kuikwa mukiya ariyeifwa Lazaro naye were wo mwiriwe wosi ni vironda vihuhu
Lazarus wanted only to eat the scraps of food left on the floor under the rich mans table And the dogs came and licked his sores,Iye were a ho mulomoni th'amaaye ni kwamba arye go magande gandigogwa kula kahi za yo meza ya ye thajiri Zho mbai were k'uro ni kudza na makamulamba-lamba zho virondazhe
Later Lazarus died The angels took him and placed him in the arms of Abraham The rich man also died and was buried,Bai yuyahu mukiya akidza akifwa na malaika makimuhala na machendamwika lagani mwa Burahemu ko mulunguni Yuyahu thajiri naye akifwa na akizikwa
He was sent to the place of deathand was in great pain He saw Abraham far away with Lazarus in his arms,Bai arihokala ako kuzimu na anateseka achanula matsoge na akimona Burahemu kwa kure na Lazaro a ho hehi na ye Burahemu
He called Father Abraham have mercy on me Send Lazarus to me so that he can dip his finger in water and cool my tongue I am suffering in this fire,Bai akipiga k'ululu akiamba Baba Burahemu nionera mbazi umuhume Lazaro athobe chalache kahi za madzi naadze anizizinye ludhimi lwangu kwa kukala ninalumira kahi za uu moho
But Abraham said My child remember when you lived You had all the good things in life But Lazarus had nothing but problems Now he is comforted here and you are suffering,Ela Burahemu akimudzigidzya akiamba Mwanangu kumbukira kukala uwe kahi za maishago were una maut'u madzo-madzo ela Lazaro ye akikala ana go mai-mai mahuhu vivi vikara bai ye Lazaro ana raha nawe unateswa
Also there is a big pit between you and us No one can cross over to help you and no one can come here from there,Hamwenga na vizho kahi za siswi na ninwi hana ridzina ribomu ili ao mamalao kuthalala kula kuku kudza kwenu masidime na ao a kuko nao masidime kuvuka na kudza kuku kwehu furiko
The rich man said Then please father Abraham send Lazarus to my fathers house on earth,Ye thajiri akidzigidzya akiamba Baba Burahemu nakuvoya bai umuhume Lazaro ende ko mudzini kwehu
I have five brothers He could warn my brothers so that they will not come to this place of pain,mana nina ndugu zangu atsano kuko ende akaakanye kimbere ili masidze kahi za hat'u haha ha mateso
But Abraham said They have the Law of Moses and the writings of the prophets to read let them learn from that,Burahemu akimudzigidzya akiamba Kuko kuna Musa na manabii bai ni maasikize ao
The rich man said No father Abraham But if someone came to them from the dead then they would decide to change their lives,Ye thajiri akiamba Hatha bule Baba Burahemu k'amandasikira bule muhaka mut'u ambole kula kuku kifwani aaendere ndo mandathubu
But Abraham said to him If your brothers wont listen to Moses and the prophets they wont listen to someone who comes back from the dead,Burahemu akimudzigidzya akiamba Kala were k'amandaasikiza Musa na o manabii be k'amandasikira hatha kukafufuka mut'u kula kifwani
Jesus said to his followers Things will surely happen that will make people sin But it will be very bad for anyone who makes this happen,Gonya Jesu akiambira anafundzie akiamba Maut'u gahendago at'u makahenda dambi k'agana budhi kudza ela andamanya mwenye iye agarehaye
It will be very bad for anyone who makes one of these little children sin It would be better for them to have a millstone tied around their neck and be drowned in the sea,Mut'u dza iye ni baha afungwe lwalwa lwa singo atsufwe baharini kuriko kumuhendya mumwenga wa aa athithe ahende dambi
So be careful,Kwa vizho at'u ninwi dzimanyirireni
Even if they do something wrong to you seven times in one day but they say they are sorry each time you should forgive them,Na hatha akikukosera k'ana fungahe yo siku mwenga na kila akukoseraho adze kwako aambe Dzathubu sindavihenda kaheri bai vinakuvirya umusamehe
The apostles said to the Lord Give us more faith,O ahumwi makimwamba Jesu Rihende kuluhiro rehu ringezeke
The Lord said If your faith is as big as a mustard seed you can say to this mulberry tree Dig yourself up and plant yourself in the ocean And the tree will obey you,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Kala muna kuluhiro thithe renye here katembe ka haradalibe mungadima kuwamba uu mukuyu Ng'oka na wende ukalayike ko baharini na ukamusikira
Suppose one of you has a servant who has been working in the field plowing or caring for the sheep When he comes in from work what would you say to him Would you say Come in sit down and eat,Jesu akienderera kuamba K'udima kukala na muhumiki akurimani hedu anarisa ng'ondzi naye akidza kula ko mundani umwambe ndzo vikara ukeresi urye chakurya
Of course not You would say to your servant Prepare something for me to eat Then get ready and serve me When I finish eating and drinking then you can eat,Hatha K'udima kuhenda vizho hat'u ha vizho undamwamba Nigit'ira chakurya unambozeze nirye na kidza ninwe nindihogonya h'aya nawe unadima kurya na ukanwa
The servant should not get any special thanks for doing his job He is only doing what his master told him to do,Ye muhumiki k'adima kugerwa muvera kwa kuhenda here adzizholagizwa hedu munaona ni kugerwa muvera ye
It is the same with you When you finish doing all that you are told to do you should say We are not worthy of any special thanks We have only done the work we should do,Bai hatha ninwi muhendaho zhosi mudzizhombirwa mutengeze ambani vivi Siswi hatha fu ahumiki a kawaida thu na fudzahenda garyahu gahuviryago
Jesus was traveling to Jerusalem He went from Galilee to Samaria,Vikikala Jesu arihokala akwendani ko Jerusalemu wakirira kahikahi za mihaka ya Samaria na Galilaya
He came into a small town and ten men met him there They did not come close to him because they all had leprosy,Naye were akwendani kahi za kadzidzi kamwenga bai arihokala achere kwenda akithunganana na at'u kumi mariokala mana mahana
But the men shouted Jesus Master Please help us,Bai o at'u makiima kure na makipiga londzo makiamba Jesu We Bwana Fuonere mbazi
When Jesus saw the men he said Go and show yourselves to the priests,Jesu arihoaona akiambira Endani hatha ko kwa alombi mukaambire mamulole kala mudzahola jeri Bai marihokala machere makwendani makiholakare
When one of them saw that he was healed he went back to Jesus He praised God loudly,Bai mumwenga wao arihodziona kukala adzahola wauya kwa Jesu kuno anamulika Mulungu na mumiro mubomu
He bowed down at Jesus feet and thanked him He was a Samaritan,Akidza akidzadzigwaga ho mbere za Jesu kuno anamwambozera muvera na mut'u yuyu were si Muyahudi ela were ni Musamaria
Jesus said Ten men were healed where are the other nine,Jesu akiamba O madziohozwa samba were ni kumi vidze arya chenda ma hiko
This man is not even one of our people Is he the only one who came back to give praise to God,Yani k'ahaonekanire mut'u wakudzalazha muvera na kumulika Mulungu hatha ni yuyu Musamaria h'akeye ambaye hatha si Muyahudi kamare
Then Jesus said to the man Stand up You can go You were healed because you believed,Bai Jesu akimwambira ye mut'u Rungarara wende kwani kuluhiroro ndo ridzirokuhendya uhole
Some of the Pharisees asked Jesus When will Gods kingdom come,Mafarisayo angine makimuza Jesu mamanye ni rini uthawali wa Mulungu undihokudza Bai Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Wo uthawali wa Mulungu k'audza kwa ngira ambayo mut'u anadima kuwona na matso
People will not say Look Gods kingdom is here or There it is No Gods kingdom is here with you,hedu hatha mut'u yoyosi kuamba Lolani si uno vino hedu Thiurya kurya kwa kukala wo uthawali wa Mulungu u ndani mwenu
Then Jesus said to his followers The time will come when you will want very much to see one of the days of the Son of Man but you will not be able to,Gonya Jesu akiambira o anafundzie akiamba Wakathi unadza ambaho mundathamani muone angaa siku mwenga yaho kahi za siku za Mwana wa Mudamu ela ko k'amundayona bule
People will say to you Look there it is or Look here it is Stay where you are dont go away and search,Ma kuko mandiomwamba ninwi Lolani thiyuya kurya hedu Thiyuno hano ela musikiraho vizho musendeni hedu hatha kuathuwa
When the Son of Man comes again you will know it On that day he will shine like lightning flashes across the sky,Kwani Mwana wa Mudamu andihokudza andaonewa ni kila mut'u dza viryahu lumethe luonewazho lwazu-lwazu kila hat'u
But first the Son of Man must suffer many things The people of today will refuse to accept him,Ela kwandza ni suthi apate thabu nyinji na akahalwe ni at'u a kizhazi kiki
When the Son of Man comes again it will be the same as it was when Noah lived,Kudza kwa Mwana wa Mudamu kundakala dza zho virizhokala wakathi wa Nuhu
People were eating drinking and getting married even on the day when Noah entered the boat Then the flood came and killed them all,Kwani siku zizo za Nuhu kabila vula ya muretho k'aidzanya at'u mathuwa kuishi here kawaida thu Makala makirya na kunwa na kuhala na kuhalwa hatha Nuhu achangira safinani Gonya ndo uwo muretho ukidza ukialaga osi
It will be the same as during the time of Lot when God destroyed Sodom Those people were eating drinking buying selling planting and building houses for themselves,Na kidza vindakala dza vizho virizhokala wakathi wa Lutu At'u osi mathuwa kurya na kunwa kugula na kuguza vit'u kurima na kuaka nyumba
They were doing these things even on the day when Lot left town Then fire and sulfur rained down from the sky and killed them all,Ela siku Lutu arihombola Sodomu thu be moho na baruthi vikihenda kunya here vula kula mulunguni na vikialaga osi
This is exactly how it will be when the Son of Man comes again,Bai vindakala dza vizho zhenye kahi za siku ya kunyeswa lwazu kwa Mwana wa Mudamu
On that day if a man is on his roof he will not have time to go inside and get his things If a man is in the field he cannot go back home,Siku iyo bai mut'u andiyekala a dzulu za nyumbaasithime bule na kwendakolokothanya vit'uzhe virizho mo nyumbani na pia mut'u andiyekala a mundani ni asiuye bule ko mudzini kwendahala kit'u chochosi
Remember what happened to Lots wife,Munakumbukira zho zha kukala mukaza Lutu walola nyuma na akigaluka kisiki cha munyu
Whoever tries to keep the life they have will lose it But whoever gives up their life will save it,Mut'u yoyosi amalaye kuthizha rohoye andayangamiza ela kila andiyeyangamiza andaithizha
That night there may be two people sleeping in one room One will be taken and the other will be left,Usiku uwo gandihokala gaga at'u airi mandakala marere kitanda kimwenga bai mumwenga andahalwa na ye mungine arichwe
There may be two women working together One will be taken and the other will be left,Anaache airi mandakala manasaga bai mumwenga andahalwa na ye mungine arichwe
The followers asked Jesus Where will this be Lord,O anafundzie makimuza makiamba Maut'u gano gandakala hiho Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Hadzihogwa kimba ndo nderi mathungananaho
Then Jesus taught the followers that they should always pray and never lose hope He used this story to teach them,Siku mwenga Jesu akiambira o anafundzie fumbo riri ili aafundishe kukala manavirya kuvoya hasiho kutsoka
Once there was a judge in a town He did not care about God He also did not care what people thought about him,Akiamba Kwakala kuna jaji mumwenga kahi za mudzi mumwenga ariyekala k'amwagoha Mulungu hedu hatha kujali at'u
In that same town there was a woman whose husband had died She came many times to this judge and said There is a man who is doing bad things to me Give me my rights,Na bai kahi za mudzi uryahu vizho kwere kuna mwanamuche gungu ariyekala achenda kwa yuyahu jaji kila siku na kumwamba K'unip'a hachi yangu dzulu za yuno hadhui yangu
The Lord said Listen there is meaning in what the bad judge said,Jesu akienderera kuamba Kala jaji asemogoha Mulungu anadima kutsoshwa dza vizho
Gods people shout to him night and day and he will always give them what is right He will not be slow to answer them,Vidze Mulungu andakosa kuap'a hachi at'ue mwenye mamuririrao usiku na mutsana ili mapate wavizi Vidze Mulungu andatoa kuaviza
I tell you God will help his people quickly But when the Son of Man comes again will he find people on earth who believe in him,Namwambira kamare iye andahakikisha kukala madzapata hachi yao kidza haraka Ela hamwenga na vizho vidze Mwana wa Mudamu adzaho hano dhuniani andaona kuluhiro jeri
There were some people who thought they were very good and looked down on everyone else Jesus used this story to teach them,Gonya Jesu akiambira fumbo riri ao madzionao kukala ni ahachi na enye kuavudhya at'u angine
One time there was a Pharisee and a tax collector One day they both went to the Temple to pray,Jesu akiandza vivi Kwereko at'u alume airi mariokwenda kahi za ro Hekalu kuvoya Mulungu bai kahi za ao airi mumwenga were ni Farisayo na mungine ye were ni muthozi wa kodi
The Pharisee stood alone away from the tax collector When the Pharisee prayed he said O God I thank you that I am not as bad as other people I am not like men who steal cheat or commit adultery I thank you that I am better than this tax collector,Bai ye Farisayo akirungarara na akivoya voyo riri kimoyo-moyo akiamba Nakulazhira muvera Mulungu kwa kukala mimi si dza here at'u angine si munyang'anyi si mulongo kidza si muzindzi dza at'u angine marizho Nakulazhira muvera kwa kukala si dza here riri rithozi ra kodi haha
I fast twice a week and I give a tenth of everything I get,Mino kahi za wiki ndzima nafunga siku mbiri kidza ninakup'a sehemu ya kumi ya zhosi nipatazho
The tax collector stood alone too But when he prayed he would not even look up to heaven He felt very humble before God He said O God have mercy on me I am a sinner,Ela ye muthozi wa kodi k'ahendere vizho arizhohenda ni kwamba waima kure na hatha ko kulola ko dzulu mulunguni zhamushinda Wadzipiga makonde ga laga kwa ko kushononeka zhomu akiamba Nionera mbazi Mulungu mimi ni mwenye dambi
I tell you when this man finished his prayer and went home he was right with God But the Pharisee who felt that he was better than others was not right with God People who make themselves important will be made humble But those who make themselves humble will be made important,Jesu arihogonya kunena vizho akiamba Jeri wenye namwambira yuyu muthozi wa kodi be wakwenda kwakwe mudzini akikala adzahendywa muhachi ni Mulungu ela ye Farisayo k'avikalire vizho bule mana mut'u ahendzaye kudzanula andatserezwa ela mut'u adzitserezaye andanulwa
Some people brought their small children to Jesus so that he could lay his hands on them to bless them But when the followers saw this they told the people not to do this,Vikara at'u mere manamurehera ahoho aagut'e Ela o anafundzie marihoona vizho makiadumulira
But Jesus called the little children to him and said to his followers Let the little children come to me Dont stop them because Gods kingdom belongs to people who are like these little children,Ela Jesu arihoona vizho akiaiha o ahoho na akiambira o anafundzie Aricheni o ahoho athithe madze kwangu musiakahaze bule mana wo uthawali wa Mulungu ni wa at'u dza vizho aa
The truth is you must accept Gods kingdom like a little child accepts things or you will never enter it,Namwambira ujeri wenye mut'u ariye k'andauhokera uthawali wa Mulungu dza here muhoho muthithe k'andawangira ng'o
A religious leader asked Jesus Good Teacher what must I do to get eternal life,Bai mut'u mungine ariyekala ni kilongozi wa Kiyahudi akimuza Jesu akiamba Mwalimu mudzo nihendedze hatha niupate uzima wa kare na kare
Jesus said to him Why do you call me good Only God is good,Jesu akimudzigidzya akiamba Kwanoni unaniha mudzo K'akuna mudzo asihokala Mulungu thu basi
And you know his commands You must not commit adultery you must not murder anyone you must not steal you must not tell lies about others you must respect your father and mother,Ela dzulu za swaliro uwe unamanya malagizo ga Mulungu Usizinge usalage usiiye usimboze ushahidhi wa ulongo na aishimu babayo na mameyo
But the leader said I have obeyed all these commands since I was a boy,Ye kilongozi wa Kiyahudi arihosikira vizho akiamba Gaga gosi nagagwira hangu nichere muhoho
When Jesus heard this he said to the leader But there is still one thing you need to do Sell everything you have and give the money to those who are poor You will have riches in heaven Then come and follow me,Jesu arihosikira gago akimwamba Uwe uchere unahungukirwa ni kit'u kimwenga nacho ni kiki guza zhosi urizho nazho gonya uhale zo p'esa uagazhire akiya nawe undakala na akiba ko mulunguni Ukigonya vizho ndzo unithuwe
But when the man heard Jesus tell him to give away his money he was sad He didnt want to do this because he was very rich,Bai ye mut'u arihosikira vizho akidzalwa ni kigondzi mana were ni shaha k'amuna
When Jesus saw that the man was sad he said It will be very hard for rich people to enter Gods kingdom,Jesu akimulolat'o gonya akiamba Ni vikomu zhomu kwa mashaha kwangira kahi za uthawali wa Mulungu
It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter Gods kingdom,Kwani ni rahisi ngamira kukira kahi za t'undu ya shindano kuriko shaha kwangira kahi za uthawali wa Mulungu
When the people heard this they said Then who can be saved,Bai o marihosikira vizho makiamba Hatha ni h'ani adimaye kuokoka be zho
Jesus answered God can do things that are not possible for people to do,Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Kisodimikika kwa mudamu kwa Mulungu kinadimikika
Peter said Look we left everything we had and followed you,P'et'ero akiamba Lola fwaricha midzi yehu fukikuthuwa uwe
Jesus said I can promise that everyone who has left their home wife brothers parents or children for Gods kingdom,Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Namwambira ujeri k'akuna mut'u ariyericha nyumba muche ndugu azhazi hedu ana kwa ut'u wa uthawali wa Mulungu
will get much more than they left They will get many times more in this life And in the world that is coming they will get the reward of eternal life,ariye k'andarifwa Andahokera k'ana nyinji zenye vivi kare na kidza andapata uzima wa kare na kare kahi za urumwengu udzawo
Then Jesus talked to the twelve apostles alone He said to them Listen we are going to Jerusalem Everything that God told the prophets to write about the Son of Man will happen,Gonya Jesu akiavuha k'anda aryahu anafundzie kumi na airi akiambira Lolani vivi be funenda Jerusalemu Na kuko kila kit'u kirichoorwa ni o manabii dzulu za ye Mwana wa Mudamu be kindathimira
He will be handed over to the foreigners who will laugh at him insult him and spit on him,Iye andalazhwa kwa o at'u mario si Ayahudi nao mandamusholera mamuvudhye mamutsuhire mahe
They will beat him with whips and then kill him But on the third day after his death he will rise to life again,mamupige gonya mamwalage ela siku ya hahu andafufuka
The apostles tried to understand this but they could not the meaning was hidden from them,Maut'u gaga k'agaang'alirire bule o anafundzie Yo mana ya kuamba vizho were idzafitswa na hatha k'amamanyire ananena dzulu za kit'u chani
Jesus came near the city of Jericho There was a blind man sitting beside the road He was begging people for money,Bai Jesu arihokala a hehi na mudzi wa Jeriko zhakala haho k'anda-k'anda ya ngira were hakelesi mwanamulume mumwenga kipofu ariyekala anavoya-voya
When he heard the people coming down the road he asked What is happening,Bai iye kipofu arihosikira ro duu na lo londzo-londzo lwa at'u mario were manakira wauza kala kunani
They told him Jesus the one from Nazareth is coming here,Na o at'u makimwamba Ni Jesu wa Nazareth'i anakira
The blind man was excited and said Jesus Son of David please help me,Ye kipofu arihosikira vizho akiluta mumiro akiamba Jesu Mwana wa Daudi nionera mbazi
The people who were in front leading the group criticized the blind man They told him to be quiet But he shouted more and more Son of David please help me,O at'u mariokala ko mbere makimudumulira makimwamba anyamale Ela ye hatha akikaza kuluta mumiro akiamba Mwana wa Daudi nionera mbazi
Jesus stopped there and said Bring that man to me When he came close Jesus asked him,Jesu akiima na akilagiza ye kipofu arefwe Bai arihokudza hehi Jesu akimuza akimwamba
What do you want me to do for you,Vidze unamala nikuhendereni Naye akidzigidzya akiamba Bwana namala nione
Jesus said to him You can see now You are healed because you believed,Jesu akimwamba H'aya ona Kuluhiroro ridzakuhendya uhole
Then the man was able to see He followed Jesus thanking God Everyone who saw this praised God for what happened,Na haho henye akikwacha kuona na akimuthuwa Jesu kuno anamulika Mulungu Bai ro kundi ra at'u ririhoona vizho ramulika Mulungu
Jesus was going through the city of Jericho,Jesu achangira mudzi wa Jeriko naye akikala anakira kahikahi za wo mudzi
In Jericho there was a man named Zacchaeus He was a wealthy very important tax collector,Bai hakikala hana mut'u ariye were ni mubomu wa athozi a kodi dzinare were ni Zakayo naye were ni shaha k'azhadimikika
He wanted to see who Jesus was There were many others who wanted to see Jesus too Zacchaeus was too short to see above the people,Naye were anamala kumona Jesu amanye chamba ni mut'u ariyedze ela vikimushinda mana were ni mut'u mufuti mwenye na ro kundi ra at'u rere rinamuziya
So he ran to a place where he knew Jesus would come Then he climbed a sycamore tree so he could see him,Kwa vizho akiuka malo achenda ko mbere na achendakwera mukuyu ili adime kumona Jesu kwani Jesu were andakira na ngira iyo
When Jesus came to where Zacchaeus was he looked up and saw him in the tree Jesus said Zacchaeus hurry Come down I must stay at your house today,Bai Jesu arihofika ho hat'u haho walola dzulu na akimwamba Zakayo Zakayo thima mara mwenga Kwani vivi rero be suthi nikale mujenio
Zacchaeus hurried and came down He was happy to have Jesus in his house,Kusikira vizho Zakayo wathima mara mwenga na akimuhala Jesu achenda naye kwakwe mudzini kuno ana raha ut'u wa kwangalaza
Everyone saw this They began to complain Look at the kind of man Jesus is staying with Zacchaeus is a sinner,Ela o at'u ut'u uu k'auafwahirire bule kwani makwatya kunung'unika na kuamba Mut'u yuyu adzakwenda ujeni kwa mut'u ariye be ni mudambi zhomu
Zacchaeus said to the Lord I want to do good I will give half of my money to the poor If I have cheated anyone I will pay them back four times more,K'uzhona zho Zakayo akiungarara na akimwamba Bwana vivi Lola Bwana Kulaiza virero be nusu ya ushaha wangu nindaip'a akiya na mut'u yoyosi niriyemukenga na nikimuthoza kiwango kibomu be mut'u iye nindamuriha k'ana ne zenye ya zho nirizhomuhalira
Jesus said Today is the day for this family to be saved from sin Yes even this tax collector is one of Gods chosen people,Jesu akimwamba Zakayo Rero wokolwi udzangira kahi za nyumba ii kwani yuyu naye ni wa lukolo lwa Burahemu
The Son of Man came to find lost people and save them,Na Mwana wa Mudamu wakudza kuamala na kuakola aryahu mariongamika
As the crowd listened to what he was saying Jesus went on to tell a story He was now near Jerusalem and knew that the people thought it was almost time for Gods kingdom to come,Bai o at'u marihokala machere manaaza go maut'u gaga Jesu waenderera kunena na akiambira fumbo kwa kukala were Jesu a hehi na mudzi wa Jerusalemu na o at'u makiona kukala wo uthawali wa Mulungu be undahenda kuhenda poo
So he said A very important man was preparing to go to a country far away to be made a king Then he planned to return home and rule his people,Kwa vizho Jesu akikwatya kunena ro fumbo akiamba Kwereko na mut'u ariyekala wazhalwa kahi za nyumba ya kithajiri Bai akiuka kwenda ts'i ya kure akagerwe cheo cha kukala muthawali gonya auye kwao mudzini
So he called ten of his servants together He gave a bag of moneyto each servant He said Do business with this money until I come back,Bai kabila k'adzaandza charoche akiaiha ahumikie kumi na akiap'a kila mumwenga shilingi ya dhahabuna akiambira H'aya hendani biashara na zizi p'esa muhaka nindihouya
But the people in the kingdom hated the man They sent a group to follow him to the other country There they said We dont want this man to be our king,Ela bai aryahu at'u ambao were akiuya ni adze aathawale were k'amamwendzi bule kwa vizho makihuma at'u makaambe K'afumwendzi akale muthawali wehu yuyu
But the man was made king When he came home he said Call those servants who have my money I want to know how much more money they earned with it,Ela hatha hamwenga na vizho yuyu mut'u wahendwa akale muthawali na gonya akiuya mudzini Bai arihouya waaiha aryahu ahumikie arioap'a ziryahu p'esa ili amanye kala mazihendera kazi na zikireha faidha yani
The first servant came and said Sir I earned ten bags of money with the one bag you gave me,Bai ye wa kwandza akidza na akiamba Bwana iryahu shilingi ya dhahabu yareha faidha ya shilingi nyingine kumi za dhahabu
The king said to him Thats great You are a good servant I see that I can trust you with small things So now I will let you rule over ten of my cities,Bai ye mut'u ariyekwendahendywa muthawali akimwamba ye muhumiki Wahenda ut'u udzo sana uwe u muhumiki mudzo Bai kwa kukala wakala mwaminifu kwa maut'u mathithe nindakuhendya ukale mubomu wa midzi kumi
The second servant said Sir with your one bag of money I earned five bags,Gonya ye wa hiri akidza akiamba Bwana iryahu shilingi yo ya dhahabu yareha faidha ya shilingi nyingine ts'ano za dhahabu
The king said to this servant You can rule over five cities,Ye Bwanawe akimudzigidzya akimwamba Uwe nawe kala mubomu wa midzi mitsano
Then another servant came in and said to the king Sir here is your bag of money I wrapped it in a piece of cloth and hid it,Kula iye akidza mungine akiamba Bwana shilingiyo ya dhahabu siino naihala nikiifunga kithambaani na nikiifitsa
I was afraid of you because you are a hard man You even take money that you didnt earn and gather food that you didnt grow,Kwani were unanigoshera mana uwe u mut'u mukali unahendza kuhala vit'u virizho si zhako kidza unahendza kuvuna ut'u uriwo k'uulayire
Then the king said to him What a bad servant you are I will use your own words to condemn you You said that I am a hard man You said that I even take money that I didnt earn and gather food that I didnt grow,Kusikira vizho ye bwanawe akimwamba Ii muhumiki mui we Nakupiga ulongo kwa ludhimilo mwenye Uwe were unamanya kukala ni mwomu nahendza kuhala vit'u virizho si zhangu kidza nahendza kuvuna ut'u uriwo siulayire
If that is true you should have put my money in the bank Then when I came back my money would have earned some interest,vikara kwanoni k'uihalire yo p'esa yangu na ukendayika bengi ili nikiuya niyone idzazhala faidha
Then the king said to the men who were watching Take the bag of money away from this servant and give it to the servant who earned ten bags of money,Arihogonya kunena vizho akiagalukira o at'u mariokala maimire haho na akiambira Hedu muhokeni yo shilingi ya dhahabu na mumup'e ye ariye na kumi
The men said to the king But sir that servant already has ten bags of money,O at'u makimudzigidzya makiamba Aa samba ye ana kumi kare Bwana
The king said People who use what they have will get more But those who do not use what they have will have everything taken away from them,Ye Bwana akiamba Namwambira kamare kila ariye nacho andagerwa ela iye ariye k'ana kit'u andahokwa hatha cho aricho nacho
Now where are my enemies Where are the people who did not want me to be king Bring my enemies here and kill them I will watch them die,Na vikara dzulu za aryahu mahadhui angu mariokala k'amendzi nikale muthawali wao namala muarehe haha na mualage nalolera
After Jesus said these things he continued traveling toward Jerusalem,Jesu arihogonya kunena vivi wathangulia kumbuka kwenda Jerusalemu
He came near Bethphage and Bethany towns near the hill called the Mount of Olives He sent out two of his followers,Bai achenda hatha arihokala a hehi na kadzidzi ka Beth'ifage na ka Beth'ania kahi za Murima uifwao wa Mizeituni akiahuma anafundzie airi mathangulie
He said Go into the town you can see there When you enter the town you will find a young donkey tied there that no one has ever ridden Untie it and bring it here to me,naye waahuma na malagizo gaga Endani hatha kadzidzi mudzikoerekezana nako Muchangira mundaona mwana wa ndzowe ariye k'adzapandwa ni mut'u adzafungwa muvuguleni mumurehe haha
If anyone asks you why you are taking the donkey you should say The Master needs it,Mut'u yoyosi andiyemuza kwanoni munamuvugula mwambeni Bwana ana haja naye
The two followers went into town They found the donkey exactly like Jesus told them,Kwa vizho aryahu mariohumwa machenda na marihofika kila kit'u kikikala here arizhokala Jesu adzaambira
They untied it but its owners came out They said to the followers Why are you untying our donkey,Bai marihokala manamuvugula ye mwana wa ndzowe hakimbola o enye makiamba Mbona munamuvugula ye mwana wa ndzowe kaheri
The followers answered The Master needs it,O anafundzi makidzigidzya makiamba Bwana ana haja naye
So the followers brought the donkey to Jesus They put their coats on its back Then they put Jesus on the donkey,Bai makimureha kwa Jesu makihala go maamba gao makigahandika ho dzulu za ye mwana wa ndzowe gonya makimukweza Jesu ho dzulu
He rode along the road toward Jerusalem The followers spread their coats on the road before him,Vikara arihokala akwendani o at'u mahala maamba gao makigahandika mo ngirani
Jesus was coming close to Jerusalem He was already near the bottom of the Mount of Olives The whole group of followers was happy They were very excited and praised God They thanked God for all the powerful things they had seen,Bai arihokala adzafika hehi mutharamuko wa Murima wa Mizeituni ro kundi rosi ra anafundzie rikikwatya kumulika Mulungu kwa sauthi bomu kuno mana fwahiro kwa yo miujiza mariyokala mayona
They said,Makiamba
Some of the Pharisees said to Jesus Teacher tell your followers not to say these things,Bai Mafarisayo angine kahi za ro kundi makimwamba Jesu vivi Mwalimu ambire o anafundzio manyamale hedu
But Jesus answered I tell you if my followers didnt say them these stones would shout them,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Ao makinyamala be namwambira kamare gaga mawe gandapiga londzo kare
Jesus came near Jerusalem Looking at the city he began to cry for it,Vikara Jesu arihofika hehi na wo mudzi na arihoulola ho mbereze warira kwa ut'u wa o at'ue
and said I wish you knew today what would bring you peace But it is hidden from you now,Akiamba Kala munamanya vivi rero virizho vingamurehera dheri Ela bai k'amudima kuzhona
A time is coming when your enemies will build a wall around you and hold you in on all sides,kwa kukala siku zinadza adhui enu mandamuzingira na kumuziza musipate hat'u ha kumbolera
They will destroy you and all your people Not one stone of your buildings will stay on top of another All this will happen because you did not know the time when God came to save you,Nao mandamunonga-nonga kamare hamwenga na wo mudzi wenu K'ahana iwe ririro k'arindapetulwa kwa kukala k'amumanyire ho Mulungu arihomudzirira
Jesus went into the Temple area He began to throw out the people who were selling things there,Gonya Jesu achenda kahi za ro Hekalu na achendaainga o at'u osi mariokala managuza vit'u mumo
He said The Scriptures say My Temple will be a house of prayerBut you have changed it into a hiding place for thieves,Akiambira Zhaorwa kukala Nyumba yangu indakala nyumba ya mavoyo ela ninwi mudzaihendya p'anga ya kuzama aivi
Jesus taught the people in the Temple area every day The leading priests the teachers of the law and some of the leaders of the people wanted to kill him,Bada ya gago Jesu akiandza kufundisha kahi za ro Hekalu kila siku Bai o alombi abomu na alimu a Sheria na vilongozi a o at'u makikala manamala kumwalaga
But they did not know how they could do it because everyone was listening to him The people were very interested in what Jesus said,ela makikosa ngira ya kumwalagira kwani o at'u osi were manamusirikizat'o sana hasiho kukirwa ni neno hatha mwenga
Jesus looked up and saw some rich people putting their gifts to God into the Temple collection box,Vikara Jesu were a mo kahi za Hekalu akilola kuku na kuku na akiona at'u mario were ni mathajiri managwaga sadaka zao kahi za cho kiya cha sadaka
Then he saw a poor widow put two small copper coins into the box,K'avitoere akimona mwanamuche ariye were ni gungu kidza mukiya anagwaga vipeni viri
He said This poor widow gave only two small coins But the truth is she gave more than all those rich people,Jesu arihoona vizho akiambira o at'u akiamba Namwambira ujeri yuyu mwanamuche gungu adzagwaga nyinji kukira osi
They have plenty and they gave only what they did not need This woman is very poor but she gave all she had to live on,mana o angine madzamboza kafungu thu ka wo ushaha mario nao ela yuno ye ni masikini nyasi ela adzagwaga zhosi arizho nazho
Some of the followers were talking about the Temple They said This is a beautiful Temple built with the best stones Look at the many good gifts that have been offered to God,Badaye angine kahi za o anafundzie makikala manasumurira viryahu ambazho ro Hekalu raakwa t'ot'ot'o na viryahu garizho madzo go mawe garigoakirwa na viryahu virizho vidzo zho vit'u virizhombozwa here sadaka kahi za ro Hekalu Jesu arihosikira vizho akiadzigidzya akiamba
But Jesus said The time will come when all that you see here will be destroyed Every stone of these buildings will be thrown down to the ground Not one stone will be left on another,Munazhona zho wakathi unadza ambawo k'ahandasala iwe dzulu za iwe kila kit'u kindabandwa-bandwa
Some followers asked Jesus Teacher when will these things happen What will show us that it is time for these things to happen,O anafundzi marihosikira vizho makimuza Jesu makiamba Vidze maut'u gano gandahendeka rini Ni muvano wani undiwonyesa kukala makathi gadzafika ga maut'u gaga kuhendeka
Jesus said Be careful Dont be fooled Many people will come using my name They will say I am the Messiah and The right time has come But dont follow them,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Dzimanyirireni hasidze mut'u akamukenga Kwani at'u anji mandakudza kwa dzina rangu na mandadziamba ao ndo iye Masihi kidza mandaamba Wo wakathi be udzafika Ela hatha mandihonena vizho siakuluhireni bule
When you hear about wars and riots dont be afraid These things must happen first Then the end will come later,Na mundihosikira uvoro wa viha na fujo sogoheni kwani ni hatha gakale gago ela wo mwisho undakala uchere mbere
Then Jesus said to them Nations will fight against other nations Kingdoms will fight against other kingdoms,Gonya Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Kabila rindauka kupigana na kabila ringine Uthawali undapigana na uthawali mungine
There will be great earthquakes sicknesses and other bad things in many places In some places there will be no food for the people to eat Terrible things will happen and amazing things will come from heaven to warn people,Ts'i indathethema ut'u wa kwangalaza na kundakala na ndzala na mapigo ga makongo kila hat'u Kundahendeka maut'u ga kwagosha-gosha na ga kitai-kitai ko mulunguni
But before all these things happen people will arrest you and do bad things to you They will judge you in their synagogues and put you in jail You will be forced to stand before kings and governors They will do all these things to you because you follow me,Ela kabila maut'u gaga k'agadzahendeka at'u mandamugwira na mamutese Mandamuhirika kahi za masinagogi na kumwangiza jela Mandamuhirika mbere za athawali na maluwali kwa ut'u wa dzina rangu
But this will give you an opportunity to tell about me,Na iyo indakala ni nafasi kwenu ninwi ya kumboza ushuhuda dzulu zangu
Decide now not to worry about what you will say,Musikale na wasiwasi dzulu za zho mundizhoadzigidzya
I will give you the wisdom to say things that none of your enemies can answer,Kwani mimi nindamuhendya mudzigidzye kuhumira maneno gandigoahendya o mahadhui enu makose ut'u wowosi wa kumwamba zho mudzizhonena sozho
Even your parents brothers relatives and friends will turn against you They will have some of you killed,Nanwi mundalazhwa hatha ni azhazi enu enye na ndugu zenu na amanyi enu na hatha asena enu enye na angine kahi zenu mandalagwa
Everyone will hate you because you follow me,Visithoshe mundamenwa ni kila mut'u kamare kwa ut'u wa dzina rangu
But none of these things can really harm you,Ela hamwenga na vizho mundakala na urindzi munji na hatha ludzere lumwenga lwenye k'alundatoka bule
You will save yourselves by continuing strong in your faith through all these things,Kwa vizho mukienderera kukuluhira mundathizha roho zenu
You will see armies all around Jerusalem Then you will know that the time for its destruction has come,Kidza mundihoona shikari anji madzauzingira wo mudzi wa Jerusalemu be manyani kukala wakathiwe wa kunongwa-nongwa be udzafika hehi jeri-jeri
The people in Judea at that time should run away to the mountains The people in Jerusalem must leave quickly If you are near the city dont go in,Vikara wakathi uwo undihofika at'u mandiokala Judea namachimbirire ko mirimani na ao mandiokala kahi za wo mudzi wa Jerusalemu suthi mawambole kare Na ao mandiokala ma mashambani ni masiwangire bule wo mudzi
The prophets wrote many things about the time when God will punish his people The time I am talking about is when all these things must happen,kwa kukala siku zizo at'u mandaadhibiwa here Maoro gaambazho
During that time it will be hard for women who are pregnant or have small babies because very bad times will come to this land God will be angry with these people,Wakathi uwo vindakala vii-vii zaidhi kwa ano m'ama mandiokala mana mimba na mandiokala manaamwisa Kwani be kundakala na mashaka ga kwangalaza kahi za ts'i na k'oro zosi za Mulungu zindakala dzulu za at'u aa
Some of the people will be killed by soldiers Others will be made prisoners and taken to all the different countries The holy city of Jerusalem will be under the control of foreigners until their time is completed,Angine mandalagwa kwa kuthemwa-themwa mishu na angine o mandagwirwa mahalwe mateka mende kahi za kila kabila ra at'u Na wo mudzi wa Jerusalemu nawo undakudzazhogwa-zhogwa ni at'u mario si Ayahudi muhadhi wakathi wao wa kuthawala ugome
Amazing things will happen to the sun moon and stars And people all over the earth will be upset and confused by the noise of the sea and its crashing waves,Kidza ro dzuwa na wo mwezi na zo nyenyezi zhosi vindathimwa ni maut'u ga kitai-kitai Hano ho ts'i ho ts'i zindakala zingelele kwani zindagoshezhwa ni kururuma kwa bahari na kupiga kwa maimbi mabomu
They will be afraid and worried about what will happen to the world Everything in the sky will be changed,Na lolani at'u mandangirwa ni woga hatha magwe mazime mioyo K'amandamanya ni ut'u wani udzirirao urumwengu mana nguvu za dzulu mulunguni zindathukuswa
Then people will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory,Ndo haho mandamona Mwana wa Mudamu akudzani kahi za ingu hamwenga na nguvu nyinji na nguma
When these things begin to happen stand up tall and dont be afraid Know that it is almost time for God to free you,H'aya bai maut'u gaga gandihoandza kuhendeka be sogoheni at'u ninwi rungararani na mulole ko dzulu na th'amaa mana wakathi wa Mulungu kumukombola undakala udzafika hehi
Then Jesus told this story Look at all the trees The fig tree is a good example,Jesu akienderera kunena na akiambozera fumbo riri Akiamba Lolani mutini hedu na hatha mihi yosi mingine
When it turns green you know that summer is very near,Wakathi imbozaho makodza ni kukala ninwi enye munamanya kamare wakathi wa mavuno udzafika hehi
In the same way when you see all these things happening you will know that Gods kingdom is very near,Kwa vizho ninwi nanwi mukiona maut'u gaga gosi manyani kukala uthawali wa Mulungu u hehi
I assure you that all these things will happen while some of the people of this time are still living,Nami namwambira kamare kizhazi kiki k'akindakira kabila maut'u gaga gosi kuhendeka
The whole world earth and sky will be destroyed but my words will last forever,Mulunguni na ts'i zhosi vindahenda mwisho ela maneno gangu k'agana mwisho bule
Be careful not to spend your time having parties and getting drunk or worrying about this life If you do that you wont be able to think straight and the end might come when you are not ready,Nanwi dzimanyirireni musihale wakathi wenu mukauhenda wa kurya na kunwa kukira muhaka hedu hatha kudzishuhulisha zhomu na maut'u ga haha dhuniani kwani mukihenda vizho be iyo siku inadima ikahenda kumudulukiza na kumugwira here muhambo
It will come as a surprise to everyone on earth,Kwani siku iyo be indaadzirira at'u osini matoao kahi za urumwengu muzima
So be ready all the time Pray that you will be able to get through all these things that will happen and stand safe before the Son of Man,Kwa vizho bai kalani matso na muvoye ili mupate nguvu za kugakirira maut'u gaga gandihohendeka kidza mudime kuima mbere za ye Mwana wa Mudamu
During the day Jesus taught the people in the Temple area At night he went out of the city and stayed all night on the Mount of Olives,Jesu were akaafundisha at'u mutsana kahi za ro Hekalu siku zizo na dzulo richangira were akawombola wo mudzi na kwendakala kut'u kuifwako Murima wa Mizeituni na kuukiza wo usiku kuko
Every morning all the people got up early to go listen to Jesus at the Temple,Na o at'u nao were makarauka kwenda kahi za ro Hekalu kila siku kumusirikiza Jesu
It was almost time for the Jewish Festival of Unleavened Bread called the Passover,Vikara wakathi wa sikuk'uu ya Mikahe Iso Ts'ats'u ambayo pia inaifwa P'asaka were udzafika hehi
The leading priests and teachers of the law wanted to kill Jesus But they were trying to find a quiet way to do it because they were afraid of what the people would do,K'uzhona bai o alombi abomu na alimu a Sheria makikala manamala mwanya wa kumwalagira Jesu kisiri kwani were ni aoga na at'u
One of Jesus twelve apostles was named Judas Iscariot Satan entered him,Ndo Shethani akimwangira-ngira Juda Isikariote ariye were ni mumwenga wa o anafundzi kumi na airi a Jesu
and he went and talked with the leading priests and some of the soldiers who guarded the Temple He talked to them about a way to hand Jesus over to them,Naye Juda wakwenda vivii muhaka kwa alombi abomu na abomu a arindzi a ro Hekalu na achendapanga nao viryahu angazhodima kumusaliti Jesu kwao
The priests were very happy about this They promised to give Judas money for doing this,Bai marihosikira vizho mafwahirwa hatha makilagana naye kumup'a p'esa
He agreed Then he waited for the best time to hand him over to them He wanted to do it when no one was around to see it,Juda akikubali na akiandza kumala nafasi mbidzo ya kumusalitira Jesu hasiho kukala na kundi rorosi ra at'u
The Day of Unleavened Breadcame This was the day when the Jews always killed the lambs for the Passover,Ndo yo siku ya Mikahe Iso Ts'ats'u ikifika ambayo pia ndo siku ya kutsindza ng'ondzi za sikuk'uu ya P'asaka
Jesus said to Peter and John Go and prepare the Passover meal for us to eat,Ndo Jesu akimuhuma P'et'ero na Johana akiamba Endani hedu mukahuthayarishire viryahu hundizhorya ii sikuk'uu ya P'asaka
They said to him Where do you want us to prepare the meal,P'et'ero na Johana marihosikira vivi makimuza Jesu makiamba Vidze unahendza fukakuthayarishire hiko
When you go into the city you will see a man carrying a jar of water Follow him He will go into a house,Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Endani vivi hatha muchangira wo mudzi thu mundaona mwanamulume adzatsukula muthanga wa madzi bai mundihomona muthuweni nyuma muhaka yo nyumba andiyongira
Tell the owner of the house The Teacher asks that you please show us the room where he and his followers can eat the Passover meal,Mundihokala mudzangira mo nyumbani muzeni ye mwenye nyumba muambe Mwalimu adzaamba cho chumba cha ajeni ambacho iye na anafundzie mandarya sikuk'uu ya P'asaka ni hicho
Then the owner will show you a large room upstairs that is ready for us Prepare the meal there,Andihosikira vizho andamwanyesa chumba kibomu cha gorofani kiricho kina kila kit'u Bai mukichona kwatyani kupanga-panga mumo
So Peter and John left Everything happened the way Jesus said So they prepared the Passover meal,Kwa vizho o anafundzi makiuka na makikwatya kwenda nao makiona zho arizho were Jesu adzaamba zhenye Ndo makipanga-panga kwa ut'u wa yo sikuk'uu ya P'asaka
The time came for them to eat the Passover meal Jesus and the apostles were together at the table,Bai wakathi urihofika Jesu wakwendakelesi hamwenga na o ahumwie kurya chakurya
Jesus said to them I wanted very much to eat this Passover meal with you before I die,Kidza Jesu akiambira Mut'u mimi were na thamani zhomu kurya sikuk'uu ya P'asaka hamwenga nanwi kabila sidzaandza kupata mateso
I will never eat another Passover meal until it is given its full meaning in Gods kingdom,Kwani namwambira kamare sindaithatha kaheri ii sikuk'uu muhaka indihopata manaye kamare-kamare kahi za uthawali wa Mulungu
Then Jesus took a cup of wine He gave thanks to God for it and said Take this cup and give it to everyone here,Gonya Jesu akihala cho kikombe cha divai achamboza muvera kwa Mulungu na akiambira o ahumwie akiamba H'aya halani mutsumbulirane
I will never drink wine again until Gods kingdom comes,Nami namwambira ujeri sindanwa kaheri divai muhaka uthawali wa Mulungu undihokudza
Then he took some bread and thanked God for it He broke off some pieces gave them to the apostles and said This bread is my body that I am giving for you Eat this to remember me,Arihogonya vizho akihala mukahe akimboza muvera gonya akiumogola-mogola na akiagolozeza akiamba Uu ndo mwiri wangu umbozwao kwa ut'u wenu kalani mukiurya kwa kunikumbukira mimi
In the same way after supper Jesus took the cup of wine and said This wine represents the new agreement from God to his people It will begin when my blood is poured out for you,Bai marihogonya kurya akihala cho kikombe cha divai akiap'a akiamba Kikombe kiki ndo kilagane kisha kidzichoikwa kwa milatso yangu ambayo indamwagwa kwa ut'u wenu
Jesus said But here on this table is the hand of the one who will hand me over to my enemies,Ela lolani bai iye mut'u anisalitiye be yu haha na hatha ninarya naye
The Son of Man will do what God has planned But it will be very bad for the one who hands over the Son of Man to be killed,Kwani Mwana wa Mudamu andalagwa karakara na ahendzazho Mulungu ela shauriye iye mut'u amusalitiye
Then the apostles asked each other Which one of us would do that,O anafundzie marihosikira vizho makikwatya kuuzana-uzana o enye kwa enye mamanye chamba ni h'ani andiyehenda ut'u dza uwo
Later the apostles began to argue about which one of them was the most important,Kidza hakimbola k'anani kahi za o anafundzi dzulu za ni h'ani kahi zao anahalirwa dza here mubomu wao
But Jesus said to them The kings of the world rule over their people and those who have authority over others want to be called the great providers for the people,Ndo Jesu akiambira kukala Athawali a at'u mario si Ayahudi mathawala at'u ao na ukali kidza o vilongozi ao manaifwa Aheshimiwa
But you must not be like that The one with the most authority among you should act as if he is the least important The one who leads should be like one who serves,Ela ninwi bai ni musikale dza ao bule Hat'uhe iye ariye ni mubomu kahi zenu suthi akale muthithe wa osi Kidza iye kilongozi suthi akale dza here muhumiki
Who is more important the one serving or the one sitting at the table being served Everyone thinks its the one being served right But I have been with you as the one who serves,Vidze ariye mubomu kahi za ano at'u airi ni hiye Vidze ni yuyahu akelesiye akambozerwa chakurya hedu ni iye mwambozi wa chakurya Samba ni iye akelesiye na akambozerwa Ela mimi bai ni dza here mut'u ahumikaye kahi zenu
You men have stayed with me through many struggles,Ninwi ndinwi mudzioenderera kukala hamwenga nami kahi za majezo nigapatago
So I give you authority to rule with me in the kingdom the Father has given me,Nanwi namup'a wo uthawali dza here Baba arizhonip'a
You will eat and drink at my table in that kingdom You will sit on thrones and judge the twelve tribes of Israel,Ninwi mundarya na munwe kahi za meza yangu kahi za uthawali wangu na kidza mundakelesi kahi za vihi zha endzi na muhukumu zo kabila kumi na mbiri za Iziraeli
Satan has asked to test you men like a farmer tests his wheat O Simon Simon,Kidza Jesu akiamba Simoni Simoni Lola Shethani adzamumala ili amuhehet'e dza here mut'u ahehet'azho ngano
I have prayed that you will not lose your faith Help your brothers be stronger when you come back to me,Ela hamwenga na vizho mimi nidzakuvoyera vivi Simoni kwamba uenderere kukuluhira Kidza bai undihoniuyira mimi hakikisha kukala udzaangiza nguvu o nduguzo
But Peter said to Jesus Lord I am ready to go to jail with you I will even die with you,Simoni arihosikira vizho akidzigidzya akiamba Bwana mut'u mimi ni thayari fukafungwe hosi hedu hatha nalagwe hamwenga nawe
But Jesus said Peter before the rooster crows tomorrow morning you will say you dont know me You will say this three times,Jesu akimudzigidzya akimwamba Nakwambira ujeri P'et'ero undanikana k'ana t'ahu kabila jogolo k'aridzaika usiku wa rero na undaamba kukala k'unimanya bule
Then Jesus said to the apostles Remember when I sent you out without money a bag or sandals Did you need anything,Gonya Jesu akiagalukira o anafundzie akiauza akiamba Munakumbukira harya nirihomuhuma na nikimwamba musitsukule p'esa hedu mukoba hedu hatha virahu zhenye Vidze murihohendazho mwatsowa kit'u chochosi O anafundzi makidzigidzya makiamba K'ahutsowere kit'u
Jesus said to them But now if you have money or a bag carry that with you If you dont have a sword sell your coat and buy one,Jesu akiambira Ela vivi bai ariye na p'esa hedu mukoba na avihale na ariye k'ana mushu naaguze ro valore na augule
The Scriptures say,Kwani go Maoro gaambago kukala Wathalwa jao mwenga na enye dambi vivi be suthi gathimizwe kwangu Kwa kukala go garigoorwa dzulu zangu be gandakala jeri
The followers said Look Lord here are two swords,O anafundzi marihosikira vizho makiamba Bwana Lola haha kare huna mishu miri Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba H'aa vinathosha vizho
Then Jesus went about 50 steps away from them He knelt down and prayed,Arihogonya kunena vizho akiashalahukira na achenda hat'u ambaho ukurewe ni dza uryahu wa mut'u adzevuguriza iwe Arihofika haho akipiga mavindi na akivoya voyo riri
Father if you are willing please dont make me drink from this cupBut do what you want not what I want,Baba kala ni mahendzogo niusira gaga mateso gaga ela visikale here nihendzazho mimi ela navikale here uhendzazho uwe visikale here nihendzazho mimi bule
Then an angel from heaven came to help him,Ndo malaika kula mulunguni akimwambolera na akimwangiza nguvu
Jesus was full of pain he struggled hard in prayer Sweat dripped from his face like drops of blood falling to the ground,Na kidza kahi za hali ya kukala angelele akikaza kuvoya kwa nguvu zaidhi na lola achambola mavukuhi garigokala gadzahalana na madeswe ga milatso gakidweka ho ts'i
When he finished praying he went to his followers He found them asleep worn out from their grieving,Bai arihogonya kuvoya waauyira o anafundzie na achendaathekeza madzalela kwa cho kigondzi kinji na marere
Jesus said to them Why are you sleeping Get up and pray for strength against temptation,Jesu arihoona vizho akiauza akiamba Mbona murere kaheri H'aya ukani muvoye sidze mukangira majezoni
While Jesus was speaking a crowd came up It was led by Judas one of the twelve apostles He came over to Jesus to kiss him,Bai arihokala achere kunena kukidza kundi ra at'u ririrokala rinalongozwa ni Juda ariyekala ni mumwenga wa o anafundzi kumi na airi K'uzhona zho akidza na akimudonera Jesu
But Jesus said to him Judas are you using the kiss of friendship to hand over the Son of Man to his enemies,Ela Jesu arihoona vizho akimuza Juda akiamba Juda hatha unamusaliti ye Mwana wa Mudamu kwa kuhenda kumudonera kamare
The followers of Jesus were standing there too They saw what was happening and said to Jesus Lord should we use our swords,Ndo o anafundzie mario were ma hamwenga naye marihoona vizho makimwamba Bwana Fuatheme-theme na myushu ano
And one of them did use his sword He cut off the right ear of the servant of the high priest,Hakimbola mumwenga wao akimuthema muhumiki wa ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye hatha akimutosa sikiro
Jesus said Stop Then he touched the servants ear and healed him,Ela Jesu akiamba Aa Mbai vinathosha vizho Gonya akirigut'a ro sikiro na akihola kare
Jesus spoke to the group that came to arrest him They were the leading priests the older Jewish leaders and the Jewish soldiers He said to them Why did you come out here with swords and clubs Do you think I am a criminal,Jesu akiambira o alombi abomu na abomu a arindzi a ro Hekalu hamwenga na athumia a Kiyahudi mario were madzire mamugwire akiamba Mbona mudzire na mishu na njogoma here mudzaogwira jambazi
I was with you every day in the Temple area Why didnt you try to arrest me there But this is your timethe time when darkness rules,Kila siku were ni hamwenga nanwi kahi za ro Hekalu na were k'amunigwira Ela vivi bai ni wakathi wenu ni wakathi ambawo nguvu za kiza zinathawala
They arrested Jesus and took him away to the house of the high priest Peter followed Jesus but stayed back at a distance,Bai o at'u makimugwira Jesu na makimuthongozha muhaka nyumbani kwa ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye P'et'ero ye akihenda kuathuwa kwa kure
The soldiers started a fire in the middle of the yard and sat together Peter sat with them,Vikara ho kahikahi za wo muhala hakikala hadzakotw'a moho na hana at'u manauoha P'et'ero achenda na achendakelesi hamwenga nao
A servant girl saw him sitting there She could see because of the light from the fire She looked closely at Peters face Then she said This man was also with Jesus,Bai P'et'ero arihokala akelesi haho muhendzi wa kazi mumwenga wa kiche wamona kwa vizho akimulolat'o akimulolat'o kaheri gonya akiambira o andziye akiamba Yuyu mwanamulume be were yu hamwenga na yuyahu adziyegwirwa
But Peter said this was not true He said Lady I dont know him,P'et'ero arihosikira vizho akiamba M'ama mut'u yuyahu be simumanya kamare
A short time later someone else saw Peter and said You are also one of them,K'avitoere hachambola mut'u mungine akimona ye P'et'ero na akiamba Uwe be u mumwenga waho kahi za aryahu at'u P'et'ero akidzigidzya akiamba Hatha Si mumwenga waho bule ts'awe
About an hour later another man said Its true Im sure this man was with him because he is from Galilee,Kidza bada ya here saa ndzima kukira hachambola mungine akisita kunena akiamba Jeri wenye kamare yuyu mwanamulume yuyu were a hamwenga na yuyahu adziyegwirwa Kwani yuyu naye ni Mugalilaya t'i
But Peter said Man I dont know what you are talking about,P'et'ero arihosikira vizho akiamba Ts'awe simanya unanena ut'u wani be vivi Na haho henye kabila k'adzatosa jogolo rikiika
Then the Lord turned and looked into Peters eyes And Peter remembered what the Lord had said Before the rooster crows in the morning you will say three times that you dont know me,Ndo ye Bwana Jesu akigaluka na akimulola ye P'et'ero ko kwa uso P'et'ero akikumbukira zho arizhokala adzambirwa ni ye Bwana Jesu kukala kabila jogolo k'aridzaika uu usiku wa rero undanikana k'ana t'ahu
Then Peter went outside and cried bitterly,Bai P'et'ero achambola ko ndze na achendarira na utsungu munji
The men guarding Jesus made fun of him and beat him,Vikara o at'u mariokala manamurinda Jesu makikwatya kumuhendera kavudhye na kumupiga
They covered his eyes so that he could not see them Then they hit him and said Be a prophetand tell us who hit you,Mamuhala na makimufunga kizuzu makimupiga gonya makimwamba H'aya fwambire Ni h'ani ye adziyekupiga vino kare
And they shouted all kinds of insults at him,Na lola at'u ao maenderera kumutsuha nyomba nyinji ye Jesu
The next morning the older leaders of the people the leading priests and the teachers of the law came together They led Jesus away to their high council,Vikara kurihocha o athumia a Kiyahudi alombi abomu na alimu a Sheria mathunganana Ndo Jesu akirefwa hatha haho mbere za ro Baraza ra athumia
They said If you are the Messiah then tell us that you are,Makimuza makiamba H'aya fwambire we ndiwe ye Masihi Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Hatha nikamwambira kisha k'amundakuluhira bule
And if I ask you you will not answer,na kidza hatha nikamuza swali k'amundanidzigidzya
But beginning now the Son of Man will sit at the right side of God AllPowerful,Ela kula vivi ye Mwana wa Mudamu andakelesi mukono wa kurya wa Mulungu mwenye nguvu
They all said Then are you the Son of God Jesus said to them You are right in saying that I am,Makimuza makiamba Vikara ndo fuambe we u Mwana wa Mulungu Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Zho munenazho kukala ndimi be ni vizho
They said Why do we need witnesses now We all heard what he said,Ndo kusikira vizho makiamba Vino funa haja ya ushahidhi Mana siswi enye fudzasikira here adzizhonena na kanwake
Then the whole group stood up and led Jesus away to Pilate,Ndo ro kundi rosi ra at'u rikiungarara na rikimuthongozha Jesu muhaka kwa luwali P'ilato
They began to accuse Jesus and said to Pilate We caught this man trying to change the thinking of our people He says we should not pay taxes to Caesar He calls himself the Messiah a king,Marihofika kuko makikwatya kumushithaki na kuamba Mut'u yuyu fwamugwira anaavuga akili at'u ehu Kidza hatha anaambira at'u kukala masimboze kodi kwa Kaisari na kuno anadziamba kukala iye nde ye Masihi yani muthawali
Pilate asked Jesus Are you the king of the Jews,Kwa vizho P'ilato arihosikira vizho akimuza Jesu akiamba Vidze we ndiwe muthawali wa Ayahudi Jesu akimudzigidzya akimwamba Uwe udzanena
Pilate said to the leading priests and the people I find nothing wrong with this man,Na P'ilato akiagalukira o alombi abomu na ro kundi ra at'u na akiambira Mut'u yuyu simona na kosa rorosi ra kumuhendya ahukumiwe
But they kept on saying His teaching is causing trouble all over Judea He began in Galilee and now he is here,Kusikira vizho o at'u makikaza kamare kuamba Mut'u yuyu anavuga akili at'u kukirira na go mafundishoge na kuahenda mathinye bugwa kahi za Judea ndzima Ut'u uu wauandza Galilaya na vino hatha adzavifisha kuku kamare
Pilate heard this and asked if Jesus was from Galilee,P'ilato arihosikira vivi waauza o at'u chamba ye mut'u madzemushithaki ni Mugalilaya
He learned that Jesus was under Herods authority Herod was in Jerusalem at that time so Pilate sent Jesus to him,Ndo arihombirwa kukala Jesu anambola kahi za jimbo rithawalwaro ni Herode akiona baha alagize ahirikwe kwa iye Herode ariye wakathi uwo were a mo Jerusalemu
When Herod saw Jesus he was very happy He had heard all about him and had wanted to meet him for a long time Herod wanted to see a miracle so he was hoping that Jesus would do one,K'uzhona zho Herode arihomona Jesu wafwahirwa zhomu kwa kukala kwa muda mure were anathamani kumona Naye kwa kukala were wasikira manji dzuluze were ana thamani kumona anahenda miujiza
He asked him many questions but Jesus said nothing,Kwa vizho Herode arihomona Jesu wamuza-muza maswali manji ela Jesu k'amudzigidzyire bule
The leading priests and teachers of the law were standing there shouting things against Jesus,Kuno ko o alombi abomu na alimu a Sheria maimire haho na manasita kuamba Jesu ana makosa
Then Herod and his soldiers laughed at him They made fun of him by dressing him in clothes like kings wear Then Herod sent him back to Pilate,Ndo Herode na shikarie makikwatya kumuvudhya na kumuzuma Jesu Gonya makimuvika rivalo ridzo ra kithawali na makimulazha aujwe kwa luwali P'ilato
In the past Pilate and Herod had always been enemies But on that day they became friends,Kula siku iyo Herode na P'ilato makigwirana usena mana haho nyuma-nyuma were be k'amapatana kamare
Pilate called all the people together with the leading priests and the Jewish leaders,Bai marihofika kwa P'ilato P'ilato waaiha hamwenga o alombi abomu na o vilongozi a o at'u
He said to them You brought this man to me You said he was trying to change the people But I judged him before you all and have not found him guilty of the things you say he has done,na akiambira vivi At'u ninwi mudzanirehera mut'u yuyu ambaye munaamba anaavuga akili at'u na kuhenda mathinye bugwa Nidzamuza maswali mbere zenu na lola nikamona kukala kahi za gago gosi mudzigomushithaki nago be k'ahana kosa rorosi arirohenda
Herod didnt find him guilty either He sent him back to us Look he has done nothing bad enough for the death penalty,Hatha Herode naye kidza k'amonere na kosa ndosa akamudzya kuku kwehu Kwa vizho k'ahendere ut'u wowosi uwi wa kumuhendya alagwe
So after I punish him a little I will let him go free,Nindizhohenda ni kulagiza apigwe vikotho gonya arichizwe
But they all shouted Kill him Let Barabbas go free,Vikara kahi za kila sherehe ya P'asaka P'ilato were k'ana budhi kuavugulira mufungwa mumwenga
Barabbas was a man who was in jail for starting a riot in the city and for murder,Ela o at'u makipiga mikululu na kuamba Yuyu mwalage Fuvugulire ye Baraba
Pilate wanted to let Jesus go free So again Pilate told them that he would let him go,Baraba were ni mut'u ariyefungwa jela kwa kukala wakalamo kahi za bugwa ririrohendeka mo Jerusalemu na kahi za maut'u ga kulaga at'u
But they shouted again Kill him Kill him on a cross,P'ilato were ahendzazho ni kumurichiza Jesu kwa vizho akijaribu kunena na ro kundi ra at'u kaheri
A third time Pilate said to the people Why What wrong has he done He is not guilty I can find no reason to kill him So I will let him go free after I punish him a little,ela o hatha makithuwa o wa Musulubishe Musulubishe
But the people continued to shout They demanded that Jesus be killed on a cross Their shouting got so loud that,P'ilato arihosikira vizho akiuza lwa hahu akiamba Asulubiwe kwa adzakosani kibomu Nidzamulola na nikamona k'ana kosa ra hatha kukala ahukumiwe kwalagwa kwa vizho ndalagiza apigwe vikotho na gonya arichizwe
Pilate decided to give them what they wanted,Ela o at'u makikaza kamare kupiga mikululu na kuamba asulubiwe Na lola mwisho zo k'ululu zao zikishinda
They wanted Barabbas to go freethe one who was in jail for starting a riot and for murder Pilate let Barabbas go free And he handed Jesus over to be killed This is what the people wanted,Kwa vizho P'ilato akimuhukumu kwalagwa ye Jesu here marizhokala manahendza
The soldiers led Jesus away At that same time there was a man from Cyrene named Simon coming into the city from the fields The soldiers forced him to carry Jesus cross and walk behind him,Ndo akivugulirwa Baraba ariye were wafungwa kwa kuthinya bugwa na kwalaga naye were nde mahendzaye avugulwe Gonya P'ilato akimuhala Jesu na akimulazha kwao here marizhokala manamala
A large crowd followed Jesus Some of the women were sad and crying They felt sorry for him,Kwa vizho o shikari a Kirumi makimuhala Jesu machenda naye mende makamwalage Bai marihokala makwendani makithungana mut'u aifwaye Simoni Muk'irene Mut'u yuyu were anangira mo mudzini kula mashambani O shikari marihomona mamugwira na makimuhika wo musalaba kithuroni autsukule kuno Jesu a mbere ye a nyuma
But Jesus turned and said to the women Women of Jerusalem dont cry for me Cry for yourselves and for your children too,Kidza ngororoki bomu ya at'u yakala inamuthuwa Jesu nyuma-nyuma Kahi za ii ngororoki mwere muna anaache mariokala manapiga k'ululu na kurira kwa ut'u wa go garigokala ganamukalira Jesu
The time is coming when people will say The women who cannot have babies are the ones God has blessed Its really a blessing that they have no children to care for,Jesu arihoona vizho waagalukira o anaache na akiambira H'enwi ano m'ama a Jerusalemu at'u ninwi musirireni kwa ut'u wa kunishikithikira mimi ela dziririreni ninwi enye hamwenga na ana enu
Then the people will say to the mountains Fall on us They will say to the hills Cover us,Kwani lolani siku za thabu zinadza ambaho at'u mandaamba Baha ao anaache mario ni t'asa baha ao mario k'amazhalire ahoho hedu hatha kuamwisa ana
If this can happen to someone who is good what will happen to those who are guilty,Gonya mandanena na mirima na mayambe Nwi mirima h'aya fugwerereni Na zho virima vithithe-vithithe mandazhambira Hedu hufinikireni
There were also two criminals led out with Jesus to be killed,Kwani ikikala at'u manadima kuhenda maut'u gaga kwa muhi mwitsi vidze makivihenda kwa muhi mufu vindakaladze
They were led to a place called The Skull There the soldiers nailed Jesus to the cross They also nailed the criminals to crosses beside Jesusone on the right and the other on the left,Kidza were hana ahendi a mai airi bai aa nao mathongozhwa hamwenga na Jesu kwendalagwa
Jesus said Father forgive them They dont know what they are doing,Ndoo vivii hatha hat'u haifwaho Ribeshe ra Kitswa bai haho makimusulubisha Jesu Naye wasulubiwa hamwenga na ahendi a mai airi mumwenga mukono wa kurya na mungine mukono wa kumots'o
The people stood there watching everything The Jewish leaders laughed at Jesus They said If he is Gods Chosen One the Messiah then let him save himself He saved others didnt he,Ndo Jesu akiamba Baba asamehe Mana k'amamanya ro mahendaro O shikari makizigazha zo nguwo za Jesu Nao mahenda vivi kwa kuhenda kuzipigira k'ura
Even the soldiers laughed at Jesus and made fun of him They came and offered him some sour wine,Na o at'u makikala ma haho manavilolera zho vikalazho kuno ko o vilongozi a Kiyahudi makikala manamusholera Jesu na kuamba H'aya k'aokola angine vivi be ni adziokole mwenye kala nde iye Masihi jeri ariyetsagulwa ni Mulungu
They said If you are the king of the Jews save yourself,Na o shikari nao makihenda dza vizho zhenye mamuvudhya Jesu kwani mamuthuwa hehi na makimup'a siki
At the top of the cross these words were written,makimwamba H'aya dziokole mwenye kala u muthawali wa Ayahudi jeri
One of the criminals hanging there began to shout insults at Jesus Arent you the Messiah Then save yourself and save us too,Kidza ho dzulu za kitswache hakotw'a kibao kirichokala chaorwa maneno gaga
But the other criminal stopped him He said You should fear God All of us will die soon,Vikara mumwenga kahi za o ahendi a mai ariyekala adzanganywa haho wamusholera Jesu akimwamba Vidze we siwe ye Masihi bule H'aya dziokole mwenye gonya ufuokole naswi
You and I are guilty We deserve to die because we did wrong But this man has done nothing wrong,Ye mungine ye arihosikira vizho akimudumulira ye mwandziwe akiamba We fuambe kumwogoha Mulungu bule Siswi hosini ahahu fwahukumiwa vimwenga
Then he said Jesus remember me when you begin ruling as king,Na bai siswi zho furizhohukumiwa ni karakara kwani zho fuhendwazho be vinalengana na go mai furigogahenda ela yuyu be k'ahendere rii rorosi
Then Jesus said to him I promise you today you will be with me in paradise,Gonya akimwamba Jesu Nikumbukira bai Jesu undihokudza kahi za uthawaliwo
It was about noon but it turned dark throughout the land until three oclock in the afternoon,Jesu akimudzigidzya akiamba Nakwambira ujeri wenye vivi rero kare fundakwenda hosini p'ehoni
because the sun stopped shining The curtain in the Temple was torn into two pieces,Ganakala gago were ni saa t'andahu bai ts'i yosi yagit'ana kiza muhadhi saa chenda
Jesus shouted Father I put my life in your handsAfter Jesus said this he died,mana ro dzuwa raricha kuala na yo p'azia ya nguwo kahi za ro Hekalu ikitharuka h'waa p'ande mbiri
The army officer there saw what happened He praised God saying I know this man was a good man,Gonya Jesu akipiga k'ululu akiamba Baba yo roho yangu ninayika mikononi mwako Naye ko kugonya kunena vizho thu akimarigizika kare
Many people had come out of the city to see all this When they saw it they felt very sorry and left,Bai ye mubomu wa shikari arihoona vizho virizho were vidzahendeka wamulika Mulungu na akiamba Ni jeri mut'u yuyu were k'ana makosa gogosi
The people who were close friends of Jesus were there Also there were some women who had followed Jesus from Galilee They all stood far away from the cross and watched these things,Vikara ro kundi ra at'u mario were madzirelolera zho vikalazho marihoona go maut'u gago gakihendeka mauya midzini kwao kuno manathukusa vitswa zhao kwa kushikithika
A man named Joseph was there from the Jewish town of Arimathea He was a good man who lived the way God wanted He was waiting for Gods kingdom to come Joseph was a member of the Jewish council But he did not agree when the other Jewish leaders decided to kill Jesus,Na o at'u mario were ni asena a Jesu ambao angine were ni aryahu anaache mariokala madzamuthuwa Jesu kula Galilaya maima kure vichache na makilolera maut'u gaga
He took the body down from the cross and wrapped it in cloth Then he put it in a tomb that was dug in a wall of rock This tomb had never been used before,Arihoruhusiwa wakwendamuthinya akimulinga-linga ts'andza ya kitani na achendamwika kahi za mbira iriyohenda kutsongwa iweni Mbira ii were k'aidzahumirwa bule
It was late on Preparation day When the sun went down the Sabbath day would begin,Ganakala gago were ni siku ya Mathayarisho mana siku ya Sabato were i hehi na kwangira
The women who had come from Galilee with Jesus followed Joseph They saw the tomb Inside they saw where he put Jesus body,Na aryahu anaache mariokala mamuthuwa Jesu hangu Galilaya makwenda na Josefu na machendayona yo mbira na makiona viryahu mwiriwe urizhoikwa
Then they left to prepare some sweetsmelling spices to put on the body,Ndo makiuya midzini kwao na machendathayarisha mavumba na marashi ga kudzaumwagira mwiri wa Jesu Na irihofika siku ya Sabato makioya here Sheria iambazho
Very early Sunday morning the women came to the tomb where Jesus body was laid They brought the sweetsmelling spices they had prepared,Vikara irihofika siku ya kwandza ya wiki o anaache mauka na madzach'a maitsi machenda ko mbirani na go mavumba marigokala madzagathayarisha mende makamumwagire here adha rao ririzho
They saw that the heavy stone that covered the entrance had been rolled away,Marihofika kuko machendaona ro riiwe ra kubiningizira yo mbira ridzapingiliswa kure na yo mbira
They went in but they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus,Ela hatha vizho machangira mo ndani mariholola k'amawonere bule wo mwiri wa Bwana Jesu
They did not understand this While they were wondering about it two men in shining clothes stood beside them,Marihokala machere haho kudangana-dangana lola mahenda kuona anaalume airi maimire hehi nao At'u alume aa mere madzavala nguwo za kumetha-metha
The women were very afraid They bowed down with their faces to the ground The men said to them Why are you looking for a living person here This is a place for dead people,Bai o anaache mapiga mavindi makidzizanya kuno nyuso zao zinalola ho ts'i kwa ut'u wa woga munji mariokala nawo O at'u alume machambola kuuza makiamba Mbona munamumala mut'u ariye moyo kahi za at'u mariofwa
Jesus is not here He has risen from death Do you remember what he said in Galilee,K'aho bule be haha adzafufuka Amba munakumbukira zho arizhokala akimwambira arihokala achere nanwi ko Galilaya
He said the Son of Man must be handed over to the control of sinful men be killed on a cross and rise from death on the third day,Kukala Mwana wa Mudamu andalazhwa mikononi mwa at'u enye dambi kidza andasulubiwa ela indihofika siku ya hahu andafufuka kaheri
Then the women remembered what Jesus had said,Ndo haho o ana ache makikumbukira go maneno ga Jesu
The women left the tomb and went to the eleven apostles and the other followers They told them everything that happened at the tomb,Bai marihouya kula ko mbirani makwendaambira o anafundzi kumi na mumwenga na o angine osi gaga maut'u gaga
These women were Mary Magdalene Joanna Mary the mother of James and some others They told the apostles everything that happened,Anaache aa were ni Maryamu Magidalena na Joana na Maryamu mameye Jakobu Aa hamwenga na o angine mariokala hamwenga nao ndo mariokwendaambira o ahumwi dzulu za maut'u gaga
But the apostles did not believe what they said It sounded like nonsense,Ela o ahumwi makiona go marigonena o ana ache be k'agana mana yoyosi kwa vizho k'amaakuluhirire bule
But Peter got up and ran to the tomb to see He looked in but he saw only the cloth that Jesus body had been wrapped in It was just lying there Peter went away to be alone wondering what had happened,Ela hamwenga na vizho P'et'ero waungarara na akikot'a malo kwenda ko mbirani Arihofika kuko akizama akilola na akizona zo nguwo za sandza zi h'akeye Ndo akiuka akikwatya kuuya kuno anaaza mo moyoni Ut'u uno udziwohendeka ni ut'u wani
That same day two of Jesus followers were going to a town named Emmaus It is about seven milesfrom Jerusalem,Vikara siku iyo vizho hakikala hana anafundzi airi a Jesu manenda kadzidzi kaifwako Emau Kadzidzi kaka were ka here maili fungahe vivi kula Jerusalemu
They were talking about everything that had happened,Anafundzi aa were manenda kuno manasumurira dzulu za kila kit'u ambacho were chahendeka
While they were talking discussing these things Jesus himself came near and walked with them,K'uzhona zho marihokala manasumurira Jesu waasongerera na akinenda hamwenga nao
But the two men were not allowed to recognize Jesus,ela ao k'amadimire kumumanya bule kwani matso gao were gadzaziywa
He asked them Whats this I hear you discussing with each other as you walk,Ndo Jesu akiuza akiamba Munasumurira dzulu za ut'u wani nwi kuno munenda Kusikira vizho makiima thii kuno nyuso zao zidzakundzika kwa huzuni
The one named Cleopas said You must be the only person in Jerusalem who doesnt know what has just happened there,Mumwenga wao kahi za aa airi were nde Kileopa Vikara yuyu akimuza Jesu akiamba Unamala uambe u mujeni muno Jerusalemu hatha k'umanya maut'u garigohendeka vino dzuzi-dzuzi
Jesus said What are you talking about,Jesu akiauza akiamba Ni maut'u gani be go O anafundzi makimudzigidzya makiamba Ni maut'u garigomukalira mut'u aifwaye Jesu wa Nazareth'i Mut'u yuyu were ni nabii na were ana nguvu mbere za Mulungu na mbere za at'u osi Nguvu zizi zaoneka kahi za kunenakwe na hatha kahi za mahendoge
But our leaders and the leading priests handed him over to be judged and killed They nailed him to a cross,Bai o alombi abomu na o vilongozi ehu makimulazha ili ahukumiwe kwalagwa ndo akisulubiwa
We were hoping that he would be the one to free Israel But then all this happened,Siswi were huna th'amaa kukala iye nde ariye angakombola ts'i ya Iziraeli Zaidhi ya gago ni kwamba rero ni hahu hangu gakale gaga
but today some of our women told us an amazing thing Early this morning they went to the tomb where the body of Jesus was laid,Na ut'u ungine ni kwamba ano m'ama ehu angine madzahushangaza At'u ao madzarauka ko mbirani madzach'a
But they did not find his body there They came and told us they had seen some angels in a vision The angels told them Jesus was alive,ela madzihofika kuko k'amawonere bule wo mwiri wa Jesu Ndo makadza na makahuthalira uvoro wa kukala madzaona maono ga malaika na makaambira kukala ye Jesu a moyo
So some of our group went to the tomb too It was just as the women said They saw the tomb but they did not see Jesus,Badaye angine ehu makenda vivii hatha ko mbirani Madzihofika kuko makaona zho madzizhoamba o anaache zhenye ela ye Jesu mwenye k'amamonere bule
Then Jesus said to the two men You are foolish and slow to realize what is true You should believe everything the prophets said,Jesu akiambira Mbona mu azuzu namuna ino Mbona muna kiziho na kukuluhira go garigonenwa ni manabii ho kapindi
The prophets said the Messiah must suffer these things before he begins his time of glory,Vidze were k'avimala ye Masihi apate thabu na badaye angire kahi za ngumaye
Then he began to explain everything that had been written about himself in the Scriptures He started with the books of Moses and then he talked about what the prophets had said about him,K'uzhona zho Jesu akikwatya kuang'aziza gosi garigo kahi za Maoro ganenago dzuluze Jesu waandza na zhuwo zhosi zha Musa na hatha Maoro ga manabii osi akiaeleza
They came near the town of Emmaus and Jesus acted as if he did not plan to stop there,Vikara marihokala madzafika hehi na ko kadzidzi marikokala manenda Jesu were ni here andiyekira ende ko mbere ya ko kadzidzi
But they wanted him to stay They begged him Stay with us Its almost night Theres hardly any daylight left So he went in to stay with them,Kuona vizho makimusitira makiamba H'aa ni zhani bai kala naswi kwani hatha dzuwa rinenda kupothokani na dzulo rinangira kare Kwa vizho Jesu k'akahalire achenda hamwenga nao
Joining them at the supper table Jesus took some bread and gave thanks Then he broke some off and gave it to them,Vikara arihokala adzakelesi kuhumira chakurya hamwenga nao wahala mukahe akimboza muvera kwa Mulungu gonya akiumogola na akiap'a
Just then the men were allowed to recognize him But when they saw who he was he disappeared,Haho ndo matso gao gakigunuka na makimumanya ye Jesu K'avitoere ko kumumanya thu achangamika kare haho kwa haho
They said to each other When he talked to us on the road it felt like a fire burning in us How exciting it was when he explained to us the true meaning of the Scriptures,Na lola makikwatya kuuzana-uzana na kuamba Vidze kurya ngirani amba mioyo yehu were ina raha zhomu adzihokala ananena naswi na kufung'azira garya garigo kahi za Maoro
So the two men got up then and went back to Jerusalem There they found the followers of Jesus meeting together The eleven apostles and the people with them,Bai makiungarara kare na makikwatya kuuya Jerusalemu Marihofika kuko makionana na aryahu ahumwi kumi na mumwenga hamwenga na anafundzi angine a Jesu
said The Lord really has risen from death He appeared to Simon,Na o airi kuonewa thu makiambwa Aa ni jeri benwi Ye Bwana be adzafufuka jeri na hatha akamwambolera Simoni
Then the two men told what had happened on the road They talked about how they recognized Jesus when he shared the bread with them,Gonya o airi nao makithala garyahu ambago were gadzaakalira mo ngirani kwenda Emau na viryahu ambazho mamumanya ye Jesu arihomogola mukahe
While the two men were saying these things to the other followers Jesus himself came and stood among them He said to them Peace be with you,Na lola hatha were k'amadzatosa wo moro wao poo ye Jesu mwenye na akiima kahi zao Akialamusa akiamba Dheri narikale kwenu
This surprised the followers They were afraid They thought they were seeing a ghost,Lola makihondoka na makidzalwa ni woga kwani maona manaona p'ep'o be o
But Jesus said Why are you troubled Why do you doubt what you see,Ela Jesu akiauza akiamba Mbona munabudzyika kaheri Kwanoni mioyo yenu i thele kutsakuluhira
Look at my hands and my feet Its really me Touch me You can see that I have a living body a ghost does not have a body like this,H'aya nilolani go magulu na yo mikono yangu hedu samba ndimi mino Nigut'ani mulole hedu kwani p'ep'o k'ana mwiri hedu hatha misoza dza here nirizho mimi
After Jesus told them this he showed them his hands and his feet,Arihogonya kunena vizho akianyesa go magandzage na go maguluge
The followers were amazed and very very happy to see that Jesus was alive They still could not believe what they saw He said to them Do you have any food here,Ndo marihokala machere k'amadzakuluhira kwa ut'u wa ro fwahiro bomu na ko kushangaa Jesu akiauza akiamba Vidze muna ut'u wowosi wa kurya hano
They gave him a piece of cooked fish,Bai makihala kisiku cha kumba ra kukanja makimup'a
While the followers watched he took the fish and ate it,Jesu akikihala cho kisiku cha kumba na akikirya manalola
Jesus said to them Remember when I was with you before I said that everything written about me must happeneverything written in the Law of Moses the books of the prophets and the Psalms,Gonya akiambira Maut'u gaga genye be ndo nirigokala nikimwambira nirihokala nichere hamwenga nanwi kukala kila kit'u kirichoorwa dzulu zangu kahi za Sheria ya Musa na zhuwo zha manabii na hatha kahi za zhuwo zha zaburi suthi vithimire
Then Jesus helped the followers understand these Scriptures about him,Gonya akiahendya madime kung'alirwa ni go Maoro
Jesus said to them It is written that the Messiah would be killed and rise from death on the third day,Kidza akiambira Vivi ndizho ambazho zhaorwa kukala ye Masihi were suthi apate thabu na kidza afwe na siku ya hahu afufuke kula kifwani
Remember that I will send you the one my Father promised Stay in the city until you are given that power from heaven,Na lolani mimi mwenye bai nindamuhirikira viryahu virizholagwa ni Baba Ela kabila vizho kalani haha Jerusalemu muhaka mundihovikwa nguvu za kula dzulu mulunguni
Jesus led his followers out of Jerusalem almost to Bethany He raised his hands and blessed his followers,Badaye akialongoza kuwombola wo mudzi muhaka kadzidzi ka Beth'ania marihofika kuko Jesu akinula mikonoye na akiahasa
While he was blessing them he was separated from them and carried into heaven,Bai arihokala achere kuahasa akiahaukira na akinulwa achenda mulunguni
They worshiped him and went back to Jerusalem very happy,O anafundzi makimuabudu gonya makiuya Jerusalemu na fwahiro bomu
They stayed at the Temple all the time praising God,Nao makala kahi za ro Hekalu siku zosi kumulika Mulungu
Before the world began the Wordwas there The Word was with God and the Word was God,Haho chaho kwakala neno na iye Neno wakala kwa Mulungu na ye Neno wakala ni Mulungu
He was there with God in the beginning,Hangu ho chaho ye Neno were a kwa Mulungu
Everything was made through him and nothing was made without him,Vit'u zhosi zhaumbwa kwa kukirira kwakwe Na k'ahana kit'u hatha kimwenga kirichoumbwa hasiho kukirira kwakwe
In him there was life and that life was a light for the people of the world,Iye Neno were nde chaho cha uzima na uzima uu wareha mulangaza kwa anadamu
The lightshines in the darkness and the darkness has not defeatedit,Mulangaza uu unang'ala kizani na kiza k'akiwadimire
There was a man named John who was sent by God,Bai kwereko mut'u mumwenga ariyehumwa ni Mulungu dzinare ni Johana
He came to tell people about the light Through him all people could hear about the light and believe,Mut'u yuyu wakudza kwamba aambirize at'u dzulu za wo mulangaza kwamba kukirira kwa iye Johana at'u osi madime kukuluhira
John was not the light But he came to tell people about the light,Iye mwenye were siye mulangaza bule ela wakudzaambiriza at'u dzulu za uwo mulangaza
The true light was coming into the world This is the true light that gives light to all people,Na uwo mulangaza wa jeri ung'alirawo kila mut'u were unadza urumwenguni
The Word was already in the world The world was made through him but the world did not know him,Iye were a urumwenguni na uwo urumwengu waumbwa kukirira na iye ela kidza o at'u a urumwengu k'amamumanyire bule
He came to the world that was his own And his own people did not accept him,Mut'u iye wakudza kwa a kwakwe enye ela o mario akwe k'amamuhokerere
But some people did accept him They believed in him and he gave them the right to become children of God,Ela mwero wa osi aryahu mariomuhokera na kumukuluhira waap'a wadimi wa kukala ana a Mulungu
They became Gods children but not in the way babies are usually born It was not because of any human desire or plan They were born from God himself,Ana aa k'amazhalirwe kwa ngira ya kibinadamu hedu kwa mahendzo ga mut'u ela mazhalwa ni Mulungu
The Word became a man and lived among us We saw his divine greatnessthe greatness that belongs to the only Son of the Father The Word was full of grace and truth,K'uzhona zho Neno akikala mut'u na akitoa hamwenga naswi Bai hukiona ngumaye Nguma ii were ni yakwe kwa kukala were nde Mwana wa h'akeye kula kwa babaye naye were adzere nema na ujeri
John told people about him He said loudly This is the one I was talking about when I said The one who is coming after me is greater than I am because he was living before I was even born,Kwa vizho Johana wamboza ushahidhi dzuluze akiluta mumiro akiamba Yuyu nde yuyahu niriyekala ninamwamba nirihoamba kukala Iye adzaye nyuma zangu be ni mubomu kuriko mimi kwa kukala wakalako hatha kabila mimi sidzakalako
Yes the Word was full of grace and truth and from him we all received one blessing after another,Bai siswi hosi fwahokera nema ya kukup'ulirwa kula kwa uthimiri wa kwakwe
That is the law was given to us through Moses but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ,Kwani Sheria yalazhwa kukirira kwa Musa ela nema na ujeri zhakudza kukirira kwa Jesu Masihi
No one has ever seen God The only Son is the one who has shown us what God is like He is himself God and is very close to the Father,K'ahana mut'u ariyemona Mulungu ela ye Mulungu Mwana ariye ni Mwana wa h'akeye ariye lagani hakwe nde ariyehumanyisa iye Mulungu
The Jewish leaders in Jerusalem sent some priests and Levites to John to ask him Who are you He told them the truth,Bai vivi ndizho Johana arizhoamba wakathi Ayahudi marihoahuma alombi na Alawi kula Jerusalemu kwamba makamuze maambe U h'ani we
Without any hesitation he said openly and plainly I am not the Messiah,Marihofika kuko Johana k'akahalire kuadzigidzya ela waambira lwazu-lwazu akiamba Mimi si iye Masihi bule
They asked him Then who are you Are you Elijah,Marihosikira vizho makimuza kaheri makiamba Vikara u h'ani U Elija Johana akidzigidzya akiamba Mimi si Elija bule Makimuza kaheri makiamba We u iye nabii Johana akiadzigidzya akiamba Hatha bule
Then they said Who are you Tell us about yourself Give us an answer to tell the people who sent us What do you say about yourself,Mwisho kamare makimuza makiamba Vikara u h'ani Hup'e jibu hukaambire aryahu at'u madziohuhuma Vidze unaambadze dzuluzo
John told them the words of the prophet Isaiah,Johana akidzigidzya akiamba Here nabii Isaya arizhonena
These Jews were sent from the Pharisees,O at'u mariokwenda kwa Johana were madzahumwa ni Mafarisayo
They said to John You say you are not the Messiah You say you are not Elijah or the Prophet Then why do you baptize people,Bai makimuza Johana makiamba Kala k'u Masihi na k'u Elija hedu ye nabii humutharizaye mbona unabat'iza at'u
John answered I baptize people with water But there is someone here with you that you dont know,Johana akiadzigidzya akiamba Mimi ninabat'iza at'u kwa madzi ela kahikahi zenu haimire mut'u musiyemumanya
He is the one who is coming later I am not good enough to be the slave who unties the strings on his sandals,Na iye bai ndiye adzaye nyuma yangu ambaye mimi sivirya hatha kumuvula virahuzhe
These things all happened at Bethany on the other side of the Jordan River This is where John was baptizing people,Maut'u gaga gahendeka kuko Beth'ania nyangamo ya hiri ya muho wa Jorodani arikokala Johana anabat'iza at'u
The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said Look the Lamb of God He takes away the sins of the world,Siku ya hiriye Johana akimona Jesu anadza na arihomona akiamba Lolani thiyu ye Mwana Ng'ondzi wa Mulungu ausaye dambi ya urumwengu
This is the one I was talking about when I said There is a man coming after me who is greater than I am because he was living even before I was born,Yuyu ndiye niriyekala ninaamba haho nirihonena nikiamba Iye mut'u adzaye nyuma zangu ni mubomu kuriko mimi mana wakalako hatha kabila mimi sidzakalako
I did not know who he was But I came baptizing people with water so that Israel could know that he is the Messiah,Mut'u mimi sidimire kumanya kala andakala h'ani ela nakudza nibat'ize at'u na madzi kwamba adime kuonyeswa kwa Aiziraeli
The next day John was there again and had two of his followers with him,Bai siku ya hiriye kaheri Johana were aimire haho na anafundzie airi
He saw Jesus walking by and said Look the Lamb of God,bai arihomona Jesu anatsembera akiamba Lolani thiye ye Mwana Ng'ondzi wa Mulungu
The two followers heard him say this so they followed Jesus,O anafundzi airi makimusikira Johana ananena vivi makimuricha na makimuthuwa Jesu
Jesus turned and saw the two men following him He asked What do you want,Jesu akigaluka na akiaona o anafundzi airi manamuthuwa akiauza akiamba Munamalani nwi Makidzigidzya makiamba Ukalahi kwani Rabi Rabi manaye ni mwalimu
He answered Come with me and you will see So the two men went with him They saw the place where he was staying and they stayed there with him that day It was about four oclock,Jesu akiamba Ndzoni muhaone hedu Kwa vizho machenda naye na makiona ho akalaho na makikala hamwenga naye siku iyo Ganakala gaga were ni murongo wa saa kumi za dziloni
These men followed Jesus after they had heard about him from John One of them was Andrew the brother of Simon Peter,Mumwenga wa aryahu airi mariomusikira Johana ananena na machenda na Jesu were ni Anderea nduguye Simoni P'et'ero
The first thing Andrew did was to go and find his brother Simon Andrew said to him We have found the Messiah Messiah means Christ,Kit'u cha kwandza arichohenda Anderea wakwendamona nduguye Simoni na akimwambira vivi Hudzamona ye Masihi bewe Mana ya Masihi ni mut'u ariyetsagulwa ni Mulungu
Then Andrew brought Simon to Jesus Jesus looked at him and said You are Simon the son of John You will be called Cephas Cephas means Peter,Gonya Anderea akimuhirika Simoni kwa Jesu Bai Jesu akimulola na akiamba Uwe u Simoni mwana wa Johana ela dzinaro rindakala K'efa K'efa manaye ni P'et'ero yani iwe
The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee He met Philip and said to him Follow me,Siku ya hiriye akiona baha ende Galilaya Bai akimona Filipu na Jesu akimwamba Filipu Nithuwa hedu
Philip was from the town of Bethsaida the same as Andrew and Peter,Filipu wakala ni mut'u wa Beth'isaida kut'u arikotoa Anderea na P'et'ero
Philip found Nathanael and told him We have found the man that Moses wrote about in the law The prophets wrote about him too He is Jesus the son of Joseph He is from Nazareth,Ndo Filipu akiuka kwenda kwa Nath'anieli na achendamwamba Nath'anieli hudzamona iye ambaye Musa waora maut'u dzuluze kahi za cho chuwo cha Sheria na kidza ambaye manabii maora dzuluze Dzinare ni Jesu wa Nazareth'i mwana wa Josefu
But Nathanael said to Philip Nazareth Can anything good come from Nazareth,Nath'anieli arihosikira vizho akiuza akiamba Vino kuna kit'u kidzo kidimacho kwambola kula Nazareth'i jeri Filipu akimwamba Ndzo ulole
Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him and said This man coming is a true Israelite one you can trust,Jesu arihomona Nath'anieli anamudzirira akiamba Lolani thiyu Muiziraeli jeri-jeri ambaye k'ana ulongo wowosi ndanimwe
Nathanael asked How do you know me,Nath'anieli akimuza akiamba Udzanimanyadze Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Nidzakona haryahu udzihokala u ts'ini za uryahu mutini Na hatha Filipu were k'adzakwiha
Then Nathanael said Teacher you are the Son of God You are the King of Israel,Nath'anieli akimudzigidzya akiamba Rabi uwe u Mwana wa Mulungu u muthawali wa Iziraeli
Jesus said to him Do you believe this just because I said I saw you under the fig tree You will see much greater things than that,Jesu akiamba Unakuluhira kwa kukala nidzakwambira dzakona udzihokala u ts'ini za mutini Be undaona maut'u mabomu kukira gaga
Then he said Believe me when I say that you will all see heaven open You will see angels of God going up and coming downon the Son of Man,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Ninamwambira ujeri mundaona mulunguni ku lwazu na malaika a Mulungu manambuka na kutharamuka kwa Mwana wa Mudamu
Two days later there was a wedding in the town of Cana in Galilee and Jesus mother was there,Bada ya siku mbiri kukikala na harusi kuko K'ana mudzi wa Galilaya na mameye Jesu akikala a kuko
Jesus and his followers were also invited,Jesu naye na anafundzie masungwa yo harusi
At the wedding there was not enough wine so Jesus mother said to him They have no more wine,Bai divai ya yo harusi irihogoma mameye Jesu akimwambira Divai idzaagomera kuryahu
Jesus answered Dear woman why are you telling me this It is not yet time for me to begin my work,Jesu akimwamba Kwanoni unanambira zho m'ama Wakathi wangu k'audzafika bule
His mother said to the servants Do what he tells you,Ye mameye akiambira o ahumiki akiamba Tengezani rorosi andiromwambira
There were six large stone waterpots there that were used by the Jews in their washing ceremoniesEach one held about 20 or 30 gallons,Bai kwereko kuko mabiga mahandahu ga mawe garigoikwa kwa adha ra Ayahudi ra kuoga Kila mwenga were rinangira geleni mirongo miri hedu mirongo mihahu za madzi
Jesus said to the servants Fill the waterpots with water So they filled them to the top,Bai Jesu akiambira o ahumiki akiamba Dzazani mabiga gaga na madzi Kwa vizho makigadzaza mulembelembe
Then he said to them Now dip out some water and take it to the man in charge of the feast,Gonya Jesu akiambira o ahumiki Vikara hekani mukamup'e ye kilongozi wa yo sherehe Bai makiheka makimuhirikira
Then the man in charge tasted it but the water had become wine He did not know where the wine had come from but the servants who brought the water knew He called the bridegroom,na ye kilongozi akithatha go madzi garigokala gadzagaluka divai K'amanyire idzambolahi ingahokala o ahumiki mariokala madzaheka go madzi were manamanya zho vidzizhokala Bai ye kilongozi akimuvuha k'anda ye bwana harusi
and said to him People always serve the best wine first Later when the guests are drunk they serve the cheaper wine But you have saved the best wine until now,na akimwamba Kawaida mut'u ni kumboza divai mbidzo kwandza ndo gonya kala at'u madzanwa zhomu zhenye akamboza yo mbii-mbii ela we vivi udzayika yo mbidzo hatha vivi ndo unayomboza
This was the first of all the miraculous signs Jesus did He did it in the town of Cana in Galilee By this he showed his divine greatness and his followers believed in him,Bai uu ndo muujiza wa kwandza kamare ariouhenda Jesu Nawo wauhenda K'ana mudzi uriwo ko Galilaya bai akinyesa ngumaye na o anafundzie makimukuluhira
Then Jesus went to the town of Capernaum His mother and brothers and his followers went with him They all stayed there a few days,Bada ya vivi Jesu na mameye na nduguze na anafundzie makitharamuka Kaperinaumu kwa siku mbiri t'ahu
It was almost time for the Jewish Passover so Jesus went to Jerusalem,Gonya wakathi wa sikuk'uu ya Kiyahudi ya P'asaka urihofika hehi Jesu wambuka kwenda Jerusalemu
There in the Temple area he saw men selling cattle sheep and doves He saw others sitting at tables exchanging and trading peoples money,Bai arihokwenda kahi za ro Hekalu akiona at'u haho managuza ng'ombe na ng'ondzi na magiya Kidza were kuna angine mariokala manabanda p'esa makeresi na meza zao
Jesus made a whip with some pieces of rope Then he forced all these men and the sheep and cattle to leave the Temple area He turned over the tables of the money traders and scattered their money,Jesu akisuka kikotho cha nyugwe na akiainga osi mo Hekaluni hamwenga na zo ng'ombe na ng'ondzi zao Na kidza akizipetula-petula zo meza zao na zo p'esa zosi zikimwagika
Then he said to those who were selling pigeons Take these things out of here Dont make my Fathers house a place for buying and selling,Akiadumulira o mariokala managuza magiya akiamba H'aya gauseni gaga mumu Siigaluzeni nyumba ya Baba na kuihendya soko
When this happened his followers remembered what was written in the Scriptures,Gonya o anafundzi marihoaza dzulu ya zho arizhohenda Jesu makikumbukira viryahu virizhondhikwa kahi za Maoro zhaambazho
Some Jews said to Jesus Show us a miracle as a sign from God Prove that you have the right to do these things,Ndo o Ayahudi makimwamba Undafwanyesa muujiza wani hatha fumanye una wadimi wa kuhenda gaga
Jesus answered Destroy this temple and I will build it again in three days,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Ribandeni riri Hekalu nami nindariaka kaheri kwa siku t'ahu
They answered People worked 46 years to build this Temple Do you really believe you can build it again in three days,O vilongozi makimwamba Hekalu riri raakwa kwa muda wa miaka mirongo mine na mihandahu undadima jeri kuriaka kwa siku t'ahu we
But the temple Jesus meant was his own body,Ela Jesu were ananena vivi kuhusu Hekalu ra uwo mwiriwe
After he was raised from death his followers remembered that he had said this So they believed the Scriptures and they believed the words Jesus said,Bai arihofufuka anafundzie makumbukira kukala ut'u uu were waunena kare Ndo makikuluhira garyahu Maoro na riryahu neno arironena Jesu
Jesus was in Jerusalem for the Passover festival Many people believed in him because they saw the miraculous signs he did,Bai Jesu arihokala a kuko Jerusalemu wakathi uwo wa sikuk'uu ya P'asaka wahenda miujiza minji kwa nguvu za Mulungu Kwa ut'u uwo at'u anji makimukuluhira
But Jesus did not trust them because he knew how all people think,Ela Jesu k'aakuluhirire kwani waamanya at'u osi t'ot'ot'o
He did not need anyone to tell him what a person was like He already knew,K'akukalire na haja ya mut'u kumwambira dzulu ya at'u mana wamanya garigokala mioyoni mwao
There was a man named Nicodemus one of the Pharisees He was an important Jewish leader,Bai kwereko mut'u mumwenga aifwaye Nikodemu Nikodemu were ni kilongozi wa Ayahudi ariyekala kahi za chama cha Mafarisayo
One night he came to Jesus and said Teacher we know that you are a teacher sent from God No one can do these miraculous signs that you do unless they have Gods help,Siku mwenga wakwenda kwa Jesu na usiku achendamwamba Rabi hunamanya kukala u mwalimu ariyehumwa ni Mulungu Mana k'akuna adimaye kuhenda ii miujiza uhendayo hasiho Mulungu kukala hamwenga naye
Jesus answered I assure you everyone must be born again Anyone who is not born again cannot be in Gods kingdom,Jesu akimwamba Ninakwambira ujeri wenye mut'u asihozhalwa mara ya hiri k'adima kuwona uthawali wa Mulungu
Nicodemus said How can a man who is already old be born again Can he go back into his mothers womb and be born a second time,Nikodemu akiuza akiamba Mut'u adimadze kuzhalwa kaheri kala adzakala muthumia Vidze anadima kwangira kaheri ndanini mwa mameye na akazhalwa
Jesus answered Believe me when I say that everyone must be born from water and the Spirit Anyone who is not born from water and the Spirit cannot enter Gods kingdom,Jesu akimwamba Ninakwambira ujeri wenye mut'u asihozhalwa kwa madzi na Roho k'adima kwangira kahi za uthawali wa Mulungu
The only life people get from their human parents is physical But the new life that the Spirit gives a person is spiritual,Kizhalwacho ni mwiri ni mwiri na kizhalwacho ni Roho ni roho
Dont be surprised that I told you You must be born again,Usangalale kwa zho nidzizhonena kwamba Suthi muzhalwe lwa hiri
The wind blows wherever it wants to You hear it but you dont know where it is coming from or where it is going It is the same with everyone who is born from the Spirit,Lola p'eho nikuvuma kokosi ihendzako Unadima kuisikira ivumazho ela k'udima kumanya ilako hedu yendako Bai ndo virizho na kila mut'u azhalwaye ni Roho
Nicodemus asked How is all this possible,Nikodemu akiamba Maut'u gano ganadima kukaladze
Jesus said You are an important teacher of Israel and you still dont understand these things,Jesu akiamba U mwalimu wa Iziraeli ela ko maut'u gaga k'ugamanya
The truth is we talk about what we know We tell about what we have seen But you people dont accept what we tell you,Ninakwambira ujeri hunanena humanyago na hunamboza ushahidhi wa hurigogaona ela hatha hamwenga na vizho ninwi at'u k'amukubali ushahidhi wehu
I have told you about things here on earth but you do not believe me So Im sure you will not believe me if I tell you about heavenly things,Nidzamwambira maut'u ga urumwenguni na k'amukuluhira Vidze ela mundakuluhira nikimwambira maut'u ga mulunguni
The only one who has ever gone up to heaven is the one who came down from heaventhe Son of Man,K'akuna mut'u ariyekwenda mulunguni hasihokala iye ariyethima kula mulunguni ambaye ni Mwana wa Mudamu
Moses lifted up the snake in the desertIt is the same with the Son of Man He must be lifted up too,Here Musa arizhomwanula ye nyoka wa ng'andu ko nyika ndizho Mwana wa Mudamu arizho suthi anulwe
Then everyone who believes in him can have eternal life,kwamba kila mut'u amukuluhiraye akale na uzima wa kare na kare
Yes God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son so that everyone who believes in him would not be lost but have eternal life,Kwa mana Mulungu wauhendza urumwengu zhomu hatha akimulazha Mwanawe wa h'akeye ili kila amukuluhiraye asingamike ela akale na uzima wa kare na kare
God sent his Son into the world He did not send him to judge the world guilty but to save the world through him,Mulungu k'amuhumire Mwanawe urumwenguni ili adze auhukumu ela uokolwe kukirira kwa iye
People who believe in Gods Son are not judged guilty But people who do not believe are already judged because they have not believed in Gods only Son,Kila amukuluhiraye ye Mwana k'ahukumiwa ela kila asiyemukuluhira adzahukumiwa kare kwa kukala k'amukuluhirire Mwana wa h'akeye wa Mulungu
They are judged by this fact The lighthas come into the world But they did not want light They wanted darkness because they were doing evil things,Bai chausa cha hatha at'u mahukumiwe ni kiki wo mulangaza wakudza urumwenguni ela o at'u makihendza kiza kuriko wo mulangaza kwa kukala mahendo gao ni mai
Everyone who does evil hates the light They will not come to the light because the light will show all the bad things they have done,Kwani kila mut'u ahendaye mai nikuutsukirirwa wo mulangaza na k'andakudza ho mulangazani sidze mahendoge gakaoneka
But anyone who follows the true way comes to the light Then the light will show that whatever they have done was done through God,Ela kila mut'u ahendaye ga hachi nikudza mulangazani kwamba adzigogahenda gaoneke lwazu kukala adzagahenda kukirira kwa Mulungu
After this Jesus and his followers went into the area of Judea There he stayed with his followers and baptized people,Bada ya gaga Jesu na anafundzie mambola Jerusalemu na akikala hamwenga nao kwa muda kahi za jimbo ra Judea na akibat'iza at'u
John was also baptizing people in Aenon a place near Salim with plenty of water People were going there to be baptized,Johana naye were anabat'iza at'u kuko Enoni hehi na Salimu kwani were kuna madzi manji kuko na at'u manadza makibat'izwa
This was before John was put in prison,Wakathi uwo Johana were k'adzangwe kwangizwa jela bule
Some of Johns followers had an argument with another Jew about religious washing,Bai kuchambola h'uwoh'uwo kahi za anafundzi a Johana na Muyahudi mumwenga dzulu za adha ra kuoga
Then they came to John and said Teacher remember the man who was with you on the other side of the Jordan River He is the one you were telling everyone about He is also baptizing people and many are going to him,Ndo makidza kwa Johana na makimwambira Rabi unamukumbukira yuya mut'u ariyekala nawe nyangamo ya hiri ya Jorodani yuya uriyenena dzuluze Lola vivi anabat'iza na kila mut'u anamuthuwa
John answered A person can receive only what God gives,Johana akiamba K'akuna adimaye kukala na kit'u hasiho kukigerwa kula mulunguni
You yourselves heard me say I am not the Messiah I am only the one God sent to prepare the way for him,Ninwi enye mu mashudhia gangu kukala naamba Mimi si Masihi ela naamba Nahumwa mbereze
The bride always belongs to the bridegroom The friend who helps the bridegroom just waits and listens He is happy just to hear the bridegroom talk Thats how I feel now I am so happy that he is here,Mimi ni here muhiriki wa bwana harusi Ye bwana harusi nde mwenye bibi harusi Muhiriki wa bwana harusi nikuima na kusirikiza na nikufwahirwa asikiraho sauthi ya bwana harusi Vivi ndo hatha nina raha zhomu
He must become more and more important and I must become less important,Vinavirya ngumaye ingezeke na yangu ihunguke
The one who comes from above is greater than all others The one who is from the earth belongs to the earth He talks about things that are on the earth But the one who comes from heaven is greater than all others,Ye mut'u adzaye kula dzulu ni mubomu kuriko at'u osi naye mut'u wa haha ts'i ni wa haha ts'i na nikunena maut'u ga haha ts'i Ela iye adzaye kula mulunguni ni mubomu kuriko osi
He tells what he has seen and heard but people dont accept what he says,Mut'u iye anena vizho arizhoona na kusikira ela k'akuna akubaliye ushahidhiwe
Whoever accepts what he says has given proof that God speaks the truth,Kila akubaliye ushahidhiwe anathibitisha kukala Mulungu ni jeri
God sent him and he tells people what God says God gives him the Spirit fully,Bai iye ahumwaye ni Mulungu nikunena maneno ga Mulungu kwa kukala Mulungu nikumup'a unji wa Rohore
The Father loves the Son and has given him power over everything,Iye Baba anamuhendza Mwanawe na adzazhika vit'u zhosi mikononi mwakwe
Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life But those who do not obey the Son will never have that life They cannot get away from Gods anger,Kila amukuluhiraye ye Mwana yuna uzima wa kare na kare ela kila amukahalaye k'andawona uwo uzima uwo ela k'oro za Mulungu zi dzuluze
On the way to Galilee he had to go through the country of Samaria,Na kahi za charoche akikala k'ana budhi akire na Samaria
In Samaria Jesus came to the town called Sychar which is near the field that Jacob gave to his son Joseph,Ndeye vivi hatha mudzi mumwenga wa Samaria uriwoifwa Sikari Mudzi uu were u hehi na munda wa Josefu ariwogerwa ni babaye Jakobu
Jacobs well was there Jesus was tired from his long trip so he sat down beside the well It was about noon,Na haho were hana kisima cha Jakobu bai kwa kukala were Jesu adzatsoka kwa charoche wakelesi k'anda-k'anda ya cho kisima akioya Na wakathi uu were ni here saa sitha za mutsana
A Samaritan woman came to the well to get some water and Jesus said to her Please give me a drink,Bai Jesu arihokala a ho kisimani kukidza mwanamuche wa Kisamaria kudzaheka madzi Arihofika haho Jesu akimwamba Nisaidhia na madzi ninwe hedu
This happened while his followers were in town buying some food,Ganakala gaga were o anafundzie k'amaho madzambola-mbola masokoni kwendagula chakurya
The woman answered I am surprised that you ask me for a drink You are a Jew and I am a Samaritan woman Jews have nothing to do with Samaritans,Ye mwanamuche akimwamba Uwe u Muyahudi na mino ni Musamaria kidza mwanamuche viandzadze bai unanivoya madzi unwe Mana Ayahudi na Asamaria were k'amadima kuhumira viya vimwenga zha kuririra hedu kunererwa
Jesus answered You dont know what God can give you And you dont know who I am the one who asked you for a drink If you knew you would have asked me and I would have given you living water,Jesu akimwamba ye mwanamuche Kala unamanya kigerwa cha Mulungu na iye akuvoyaye madzi ni h'ani ungamuvoya iye naye angakup'a madzi ga uzima
The woman said Sir where will you get that living water The well is very deep and you have nothing to get water with,Ye mwanamuche akiamba Undagahekadze Bwana na k'una kiya cha kuhekera na kisima ni kire Undagapatahi go madzi ga uzima
Are you greater than our ancestor Jacob He is the one who gave us this well He drank from it himself and his sons and all his animals drank from it too,Vidze unamala uambe u mubomu kuriko babiyehu Jakobu ariyehup'a kisima kiki ambacho iye anae na mifugoye yosi manwa madzi ga kwakwe
Jesus answered Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again,Jesu akiamba Kila anwaye madzi gaga andasikira k'ihu kaheri
But anyone who drinks the water I give will never be thirsty again The water I give people will be like a spring flowing inside them It will bring them eternal life,ela iye andiyenwa go madzi nindigomup'a k'andasikira k'ihu hatha kare na kare Go madzi nindigomup'a mimi gandakala here kidzuho ndanimwe na kidzuho kiki kindakala kinamup'a madzi ga uzima wa kare na kare
The woman said to Jesus Sir give me this water Then I will never be thirsty again and wont have to come back here to get more water,Ye mwanamuche akiamba Bwana nip'a gago madzigo ili nisisikire k'ihu kaheri hedu hatha kudzaheka madzi kaheri haha
Jesus told her Go get your husband and come back,Jesu akimwamba Enda ukamuhale mulumeo hedu udze naye
The woman answered But I have no husband,Ye mwanamuche akiamba Sina mulume mino Jesu akimwambira U mujeri kuamba k'una mulume
Thats because although you have had five husbands the man you live with now is not your husband That much was the truth,Kwani uwe udzafisha alume atsano mariokuhala na mukirichana na hatha haha ninenaho iye mulume uriye naye si wa hilali
The woman said Sir I can see that you are a prophet,Ye mwanamuche akiamba Bwana naona uwe u nabii
Our fathers worshiped on this mountain But you Jews say that Jerusalem is the place where people must worship,Babizehu a Kisamaria mamuvoya Mulungu kahi za murima uu ela nwi Ayahudi mudzasita kuamba Jerusalemu ndo hat'u haviryaho kuvoywa Mulungu
Jesus said Believe me woman The time is coming when you will not have to be in Jerusalem or on this mountain to worship the Father,Jesu akiamba Kuluhira gaga ninenago m'ama wakathi unadza ambawo k'amundamuvoya Baba Mulungu kahi za murima uu hedu hatha Jerusalemu kaheri
You Samaritans worship something you dont understand We Jews understand what we worship since salvation comes from the Jews,Ninwi Asamaria munavoya ela k'amumanya kala munamuvoya h'ani ela siswi Ayahudi bai hunamumanya ye humuvoyaye kwa kukala wokolwi unaadzirira at'u kukirira kwa Ayahudi
But the time is coming when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth In fact that time is now here And these are the kind of people the Father wants to be his worshipers,Ela wakathi unadza na hatha udzire kare ambaho o avoyi a jeri na jeri mandamuvoya Baba Mulungu kahi za Roho na ujeri Na aa be ndo avoyi mamalwao ni Baba
God is spirit So the people who worship him must worship in spirit and truth,Kwani Mulungu ni roho na ao mamuvoyao manavirya kumuvoya kahi za Roho na ujeri
The woman said I know that the Messiah is coming He is the one called Christ When he comes he will explain everything to us,Ye mwanamuche akiamba Namanya iye Masihi andakudza bai haho akidza andafung'aziza gosini
Then Jesus said He is talking to you nowI am the Messiah,Jesu akiamba Mimi ninenaye nawe ndimi iye
Just then Jesus followers came back from town They were surprised because they saw Jesus talking with a woman But none of them asked What do you want or Why are you talking with her,Bai Jesu arihokala anasumurira na ye mwanamuche anafundzie makiuya na machangalala kumona anasumurira na mwanamuche Marihoona vizho k'ahambolere hatha mumwenga ariyemuza ye mwanamuche kala anamalani hedu hatha kumuza Jesu kwanoni anasumurira naye
Then the woman left her water jar and went back to town She told the people there,Bai ye mwanamuche akiricha wo muthangawe na akiuya ko mudzi wa Sikari achendaambira at'u akiamba
A man told me everything I have ever done Come see him Maybe he is the Messiah,Ndzoni mulole hedu yuno mut'u adziyenambira gosini nirigogahenda Mut'u yuno akale nde Masihi
So the people left the town and went to see Jesus,Bai at'u makimbola ko mudzini na makiandza kudza kwa Jesu
While the woman was in town Jesus followers were begging him Teacher eat something,Bai wakathi uu o anafundzi makimurenga-renga Jesu makiamba Rabi rya chakurya
But Jesus answered I have food to eat that you know nothing about,Ela Jesu akiamba Mimi nina chakurya musichokimanya bule
So the followers asked themselves Did someone already bring him some food,O anafundzie marihosikira vizho makiuzana-uzana makiamba Vidze hakale hana mut'u adziyemurehera chakurya kare be zho
Jesus said My food is to do what the one who sent me wants me to do My food is to finish the work that he gave me to do,Jesu akiamba Chakurya changu mimi ni kuhenda zho ahendzazho ye ariyenihuma na kumarigiza kaziye
When you plant you always say Four more months to wait before we gather the grain But I tell you open your eyes and look at the fields They are ready for harvesting now,Ninwi munaamba Vinahala miezi mine ndo huvune Ela namwambira muilolet'o yo minda kwani ni myaruhe tse na i thayari kuvunwa
Even now the people who harvest the crop are being paid They are gathering crops for eternal life So now the people who plant can be happy together with those who harvest,Ye mut'u avunaye nikuhokezwa mushahara kalaho anagakusanya mavuno kahi za uzima wa kare na kare kwamba iye mut'u alayaye na iye avunaye mafwahirwe hamwenga
It is true when we say One person plants but another person harvests the crop,Bai vizho ni jeri kukala mut'u mumwenga ni kulaya na mungine akavuna
I sent you to harvest a crop that you did not work for Others did the work and you get the profit from their work,Namuhuma mukavune mavuno kwenye munda ambawo k'amuuhendere kazi angine mahenda kazi kuko nanwi munafaidhi kazi yao
Many of the Samaritan people in that town believed in Jesus They believed because of what the woman had told them about him She had told them He told me everything I have ever done,Bai Asamaria anji kahi za wo mudzi wa Sikari mamukuluhira Jesu kwa kukala ye mwanamuche were adzaashuhudia na kuamba Adzanambira kila kit'u nirichokihenda
The Samaritans went to Jesus They begged him to stay with them So he stayed there two days,Kwa vizho ao Asamaria marihokudza kwakwe mamuvoya akale haho hamwenga nao naye akihenda vizho akikala kuko siku mbiri
Many more people became believers because of the things he said,Bai Jesu akinena na o at'u na anji angine makimukuluhira
The people said to the woman First we believed in Jesus because of what you told us But now we believe because we heard him ourselves We know now that he really is the one who will save the world,Makimwamba ye mwanamuche Hunakuluhira vikara si kwa viryahu urizhofwambira thu ela kwa kukala siswi enye hudzamusikira na hunamanya kamare kukala ni jeri ni mwokoli wa urumwengu
Two days later Jesus left and went to Galilee,Bada ya kukala haho siku mbiri Jesu wauka na achenda Galilaya
Jesus had said before that a prophet is not respected in his own country,Kwani Jesu mwenye were waamba Nabii k'aishimiwa kahi za ts'i ya kwao
When he arrived in Galilee the people there welcomed him They had been at the Passover festival in Jerusalem and had seen everything he did there,Ela arihofika Galilaya at'u makimuhokerat'o mana were makwenda kwa sikuk'uu ya P'asaka ko Jerusalemu na makiona kila kit'u arichokihenda kahi za sikuk'uu iyo
Jesus went to visit Cana in Galilee again Cana is where he had changed the water into wine One of the kings important officials lived in the city of Capernaum This mans son was sick,Ndo Jesu achenda kaheri K'ana ya Galilaya arikokala wagaluza madzi gakikala divai Bai kuko kwere na mubomu ariyekala ana muthanawe Kaperinaumu ariyekala ni mukongo
The man heard that Jesus had come from Judea and was now in Galilee So he went to Jesus and begged him to come to Capernaum and heal his son who was almost dead,Arihosikira kukala Jesu were adzire kula Judea hatha Galilaya wakwenda kwakwe na akimuvoya ende Kaperinaumu akamuhoze mwanawe ariyekala k'amanyikana kuthia
Jesus said to him You people must see miraculous signs and wonders before you will believe in me,Jesu akiamba K'ahana hatha mumwenga wenu andiyekuluhira muhaka muone miujiza na maut'u ga kungalaza
The kings official said Sir come before my little son dies,Iye mubomu akiamba Bwana hinde kabila mwanangu k'adzamarigizika
Jesus answered Go Your son will live,Jesu akimwamba Enda mwanao andakala moyo Bai ye mut'u akikuluhira maneno ga Jesu na achenda
On the way home the mans servants came and met him They said Your son is well,Arihokala akwendani ko mudzini ahumikie makimuthungana na uvoro uu Muthanao ni muzima
The man asked What time did my son begin to get well,Akiuza chamba ni wakathi wani iye muthanawe arihoandza kupata baha Makiamba Ramuricha dzana murongo wa saa fungahe za mutsana
The father knew that one oclock was the same time that Jesus had said Your son will live So the man and everyone in his house believed in Jesus,Badaye ye babaye muthana akikumbukira kukala ni wakathi uryahu Jesu arihomwambira Muthanao andakala moyo Kwa vizho iye na adamue osi makikuluhira
That was the second miraculous sign that Jesus did after coming from Judea to Galilee,Uu were ndo muujiza wa hiri ariouhenda Jesu kuko Galilaya bada ya kudza kula Judea
Later Jesus went to Jerusalem for a special Jewish festival,Badaye Jesu wambuka Jerusalemu kwa sikuk'uu ya Kiyahudi
In Jerusalem there is a pool with five covered porches In Aramaic it is called BethzathaThis pool is near the Sheep Gate,Vikara kuko Jerusalemu hehi na Muvirya wa Ng'ondzi kuna birika ambaro kwa Kieburania rinaifwa Betizath'a Birika riri were rina ukuta uriwo na miryango mitsano
Many sick people were lying on the porches beside the pool Some of them were blind some were crippled and some were paralyzed,Bai kahi za birika riri were hana akongo anji sana mahembelele masoona vidende na akuholoza
One of the men lying there had been sick for 38 years,Bai haho were hana mut'u mumwenga ariyekala adzafisha miaka mirongo mihahu na minane analumwa thu
Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had been sick for a very long time So he asked him Do you want to be well,Jesu arihomona na kumanya kukala adzakala haho kwa muda mure wamuza akiamba Vidze unamala kuhola
The sick man answered Sir there is no one to help me get into the water when it starts moving I try to be the first one into the water But when I try someone else always goes in before I can,Ye munyonge akiamba Bwana mut'u mimi sina mut'u wa kunangiza birikani madzi gatigwaho mana nikijeza kwangira thu nakatw'a ni mut'u mungine
Then Jesus said Stand up Pick up your mat and walk,Jesu akimwamba Uka uhale godhororo wanende
Immediately the man was well He picked up his mat and started walking,Haho henye ye mut'u akihola Akihala godhoro ra kwakwe akinenda
So some Jews said to the man who had been healed Today is the Sabbath It is against our law for you to carry your mat on the Sabbath day,Bai o Ayahudi makimwamba ye ariyekala adzahozwa Rero ni Sabato na kulingana na sheria yehu k'uvirya kutsukula godhoro bule
But he answered The man who made me well told me Pick up your mat and walk,Iye mut'u akiamba Ye adziyenihoza adzanambira Hala godhororo wende
They asked him Who is the man who told you to pick up your mat and walk,Bai makimuza makiamba Ni h'ani mut'u yuno adziyekwambira uhale godhororo na wende kwenu
But the man who had been healed did not know who it was There were many people there and Jesus had left,Ela ye mut'u ariyehozwa k'amumanyire ye ariyekala adzamuhoza kwa kukala hat'u haho were hana kundi ra at'u na Jesu were adzahenyeza akenda
Later Jesus found the man at the Temple and said to him See you are well now But stop sinning or something worse may happen to you,Badaye Jesu akimona kahi za ro Hekalu akimwamba Lola u muzima vikara Usihende dambi kaheri p'ore ukagwirwa ni ut'u uwi zaidhi kukira uu
Then the man left and went back to the Jews who questioned him He told them that Jesus was the one who made him well,Ndo ye mut'u achenda na akiambira o Ayahudi kukala ni Jesu nde ariyemuhoza
Jesus was doing all this on the Sabbath day So these Jews began trying to make him stop,Kwa ut'u uu o Ayahudi makiandza kumutesa Jesu kwa kukala were adzahenda kihendo kiki siku ya Sabato
But he said to them My Father never stops working and so I work too,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Baba anahenda kazi kila wakathi na mimi nami navirya nihende kazi
This made them try harder to kill him They said First this man was breaking the law about the Sabbath day Then he said that God is his Father He is making himself equal with God,Neno riri raahendya o Ayahudi mazidhi kumala kumwalaga Jesu kwa kukala were k'avundzire Sabato thu ela were adzaamba kukala iye Mulungu be ni babaye mwenye na kwa vivi wadzihendya kukala yu karakara na Mulungu
But Jesus answered I assure you that the Son can do nothing alone He does only what he sees his Father doing The Son does the same things that the Father does,Ndo Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Ninamwambira ujeri Mwana k'adima kuhenda kit'u chochosi h'akeye Mut'u iye anahenda go aonago Babaye anagahenda Go ahendago Baba ndo ahendago Mwana
The Father loves the Son and shows him everything he does This man was healed But the Father will show the Son greater things than this to do Then you will all be amazed,Kwani Baba anamuhendza Mwanawe na anamwanyesa kila kit'u ambacho ye mwenye anakihenda Andamwanyesa ye Mwanawe maut'u mabomu zaidhi ga kuhenda nanwi mundangalala
The Father raises the dead and gives them life In the same way the Son gives life to those he wants to,Here Baba afufulazho nyufu na kuzip'a uzima Mwana naye dzazho ni kuap'a uzima aryahu amalao kuap'a uzima
Also the Father judges no one He has given the Son power to do all the judging,Ye Baba k'amuhukumu mut'u yoyosi ela wamup'a Mwanawe wadimi kamili wa kuhukumu
God did this so that all people will respect the Son the same as they respect the Father Anyone who does not respect the Son does not respect the Father He is the one who sent the Son,kwamba osi mamuheshimu Mwana here mamuheshimuzho ye Baba ariyemuhuma
I assure you anyone who hears what I say and believes in the one who sent me has eternal life They will not be judged guilty They have already left death and have entered into life,Ninamwambira ujeri mut'u yoyosi asikiraye maneno gangu na kumukuluhira ye ariyenihuma yuna uzima wa kare na kare K'andahukumiwa ela adzagonya kare kukira kifwani hatha uzimani
Believe me an important time is coming That time is already here People who are dead will hear the voice of the Son of God And those who listen will live,Ninamwambira ujeri wakathi unadza na udzire kare ambaho nyufu zindasikira sauthi ya Mwana wa Mulungu na ao mandioisikira mandaishi
Life comes from the Father himself So the Father has also allowed the Son to give life,Kwani here arizho Baba mwenye nde chaho cha uzima dza vizho zhenye Mwanawe adzamuhendya chaho cha uzima
And the Father has given him the power to judge all people because he is the Son of Man,Na adzamup'a Mwana wadimi wa kuhukumu kwa kukala iye ni Mwana wa Mudamu
Dont be surprised at this A time is coming when all people who are dead and in their graves will hear his voice,Musangalale kwa gaga mana wakathi unadza ambawo osi mario mbirani mandasikira sauthiye
Then they will come out of their graves Those who did good in this life will rise and have eternal life But those who did evil will rise to be judged guilty,na mandambola mo mbirani Na ao mariohenda madzo mandafufuka na kukala moyo na osi mariohenda mai mandafufuka na mandahukumiwa
I can do nothing alone I judge only the way I am told And my judgment is right because I am not trying to please myself I want only to please the one who sent me,Mimi h'akiyangu sidima kuhenda kit'u chochosi Mut'u mimi ninahukumu thu here Mulungu anambirazho kwa vizho hukumu yangu ni ya ujeri mana sihenda go nihendzago mimi ela nahenda garyahu gamalwago ni iye ariyenihuma
If I tell people about myself they cannot be sure that what I say is true,Nikimboza ushahidhi dzulu yangu mwenye go ninenago si ga ujeri
But there is someone else who tells people about me and I know that what he says about me is true,Ela kuna mungine anambozeraye ushahidhi hat'u hangu na ninamanya uwo ushahidhiwe dzulu yangu ni jeri
You sent men to John and he told you what is true,Mwahirika at'u kwa Johana na akinena ujeri dzulu zangu
I dont need anyone to tell people about me but I remind you of what John said so that you can be saved,Si kwa kukala nidzathumainia ushahidhi niupatao ula kwa mudamu ela ninanena vivi kwamba mukuluhire
John was like a lamp that burned and gave light and you were happy to enjoy his light for a while,Iye were ni taa riakaro na kung'ala nanwi mukihendza kufurahi kwa muda kahi za mulangazawe
But I have a proof about myself that is greater than anything John said The things I do are my proof These are what my Father gave me to do They show that the Father sent me,Ela wo ushahidhi niriwo nawo ni mubomu kuriko wa Johana nawo ni zizo kazi arizonip'a Baba nizithimize Bai kazi zizi zenye nizihendazo ndo zirizo zinanambozera ushahidhi kukala Baba wanihuma
And the Father who sent me has given proof about me himself But you have never heard his voice You have never seen what he looks like,Na ye Baba mwenye ariyenihuma anamboza ushahidhi dzulu zangu Ela ninwi k'amudzamusikira sauthiye hedu hatha kumona umbore
The Fathers teaching does not live in you because you dont believe in the one the Father sent,na kidza nenore k'amunaro ndani mwenu kwani k'amumukuluhira iye ariyemuhuma
You carefully study the Scriptures You think that they give you eternal life These same Scriptures tell about me,Munashoma Maoro kwa chadi mukiona kukala kwa gago mundapata uzima wa kare na kare Gaga ndo Maoro ganilazhirago ushahidhi
But you refuse to come to me to have that life,ela kidza munakahala kudza kwangu kupata uzima
I dont want praise from you or any other human,Simala ishima kula kwa at'u
But I know youI know that you have no love for God,Ela ninamanya kukala k'amuna mahendzo ga Mulungu mioyoni mwenu
I have come from my Father and speak for him but you dont accept me But when other people come speaking only for themselves you accept them,Mut'u mimi nakudza kahi za dzina ra Baba ela k'amunihokerere mut'u mungine akidza kwa dzinare mundamuhokera
You like to have praise from each other But you never try to get the praise that comes from the only God So how can you believe,Munadimadze kukuluhira ikidzakala mwakubali kudzip'a nguma enye kwa enye na k'amuhenda chadi chochosi kupata nguma imbolayo kwa Mulungu h'akeye
Dont think that I will be the one to stand before the Father and accuse you Moses is the one to accuse you And he is the one you hoped would save you,Hatha vizho musione kukala nindamushithaki kwa Baba Musa nde andiyemushithaki ninwi Naye ni yuyahu Musa ambaye mudzamutumainia
If you really believed Moses you would believe me because he wrote about me,Kala jeri mwamukuluhira Musa ngere mwanikuluhira mana iye wandhika dzulu zangu
But you dont believe what he wrote so you cant believe what I say,Ela chamba k'amukuluhira zho arizhondhika Musa munadimadze kukuluhira go ninenago
Later Jesus went across Lake Galilee also known as Lake Tiberias,Bada ya vivi Jesu wakwenda luhande lungine lwa ziya ra Galilaya ambaro pia ni ziya ra Tiberia
A great crowd of people followed him because they saw the miraculous signs he did in healing the sick,Bai at'u anji makimuthuwa mana maona yo miujiza ariyoahendera at'u mariokala ni akongo
Jesus went up on the side of the hill and sat there with his followers,Kidza Jesu akikwera kirimani na akikelesi na anafundzie
It was almost the time for the Jewish Passover festival,Vikara wakathi uu sikuk'uu ya Kiyahudi ya P'asaka were i hehi
Jesus looked up and saw a crowd of people coming toward him He said to Philip Where can we buy enough bread for all these people to eat,Bai Jesu arihonula matso waona kundi bomu ra at'u rinamudzirira Akimuza Filipu akiamba Vidze hundagulahi mikahe ya kuarisa at'u ano
He asked Philip this question to test him Jesus already knew what he planned to do,Ela Jesu wamuza kumujeza thu kwani were anamanya kare zho arizhokala andahenda ye mwenye
Philip answered We would all have to work a month to buy enough bread for each person here to have only a little piece,Bai Filipu akiamba Hatha dinari magana mairi k'azidima kugula chakurya cha kuthosha cha kila mumwenga apate kaut'u ka kuluma-luma
Another follower there was Andrew the brother of Simon Peter Andrew said,Ndo mwanafundziwe mumwenga Anderea ariye ni nduguye Simoni P'et'ero akiamba
Here is a boy with five loaves of barley bread and two little fish But that is not enough for so many people,Haha hana muvulana ariye na mikahe mitsano ya shayiri na makumba mairi Ela zho be hatha ni noni kwa at'u anji namuna ino
Jesus said Tell everyone to sit down This was a place with a lot of grass and about 5000 men sat down there,Jesu akiamba Ambireni o at'u makelesi hedu Hat'u haho were hana nyasi nyinji Kwa vizho kila mut'u akikeresi Nao were ni here at'u alifu ts'ano alume
Jesus took the loaves of bread and gave thanks for them Then he gave them to the people who were waiting to eat He did the same with the fish He gave them as much as they wanted,Bai Jesu akihala yo mikahe achamboza muvera kwa Mulungu na akiagazhira o at'u mariokala makelesi haho Akihenda vizho pia kwa go makumba na osi makirya hatha makivilola
They all had plenty to eat When they finished Jesus said to his followers Gather the pieces of fish and bread that were not eaten Dont waste anything,Marihokala osi makusi Jesu waambira anafundzie Tsolani-tsolani zho visiku vidzizhosala ili husitsuhe chochosi
So they gathered up the pieces that were left The people had started eating with only five loaves of barley bread But the followers filled twelve large baskets with the pieces of food that were left,Kwa vizho makivitsola-tsola zhosi na makidzaza k'ahu kumi na mbiri kula kahi za yo mikahe mitsano ya shayiri iriyoriwa ni o at'u
The people saw this miraculous sign that Jesus did and said He must be the Prophetwho is coming into the world,Bai at'u marihoona wo muujiza ariwohenda Jesu makiandza kuamba Jeri wenye yuyu nde nabii humutharizaye haha urumwenguni
Jesus knew that the people planned to come get him and make him their king So he left and went into the hills alone,Kidza Jesu akimanya kukala were manamala kudzamugwira mamuhendye muthawali kwa nguvu Kwa vizho akiachimbira achenda murimani na akikala h'akeye
That evening Jesus followers went down to the lake,Bai kurihokala dziloni o anafundzie makwenda ko ziyani
It was dark now and Jesus had not yet come back to them They got into a boat and started going across the lake to Capernaum,machangira dauni mavuke mende Kaperinaumu Bai usiku uchangira na Jesu akikala k'adzaafikira bule
The wind was blowing very hard The waves on the lake were becoming bigger,Na wakathi uu luvutho lukali lwere lunapiga na kuvuruga go madzi
They rowed the boat about three or four milesThen they saw Jesus He was walking on the water coming to the boat They were afraid,Bai o anafundzie marihokala madzakwenda mwendo wa maili t'ahu hedu ne vivi mumo ziyani mamona Jesu ananenda dzulu za madzi na anadza hehi na ro dau bai makigoshezhwa
But he said to them Dont be afraid Its me,Ela Jesu akiamba Sogoheni bule ndimi
When he said this they were glad to take him into the boat And then the boat reached the shore at the place they wanted to go,Bai makikala ma thayari apande mo dauni ela vichache zhenye riro dau rikifika yo ts'i mariyokala manenda
The next day came Some people had stayed on the other side of the lake They knew that Jesus did not go with his followers in the boat They knew that the followers had left in the boat alone And they knew it was the only boat that was there,Siku ya hiriye muthunganano uriwokala nyangamo ya ziya wakumbukira kukala ni dau mwenga h'akeye ririrokala haho Kwa vizho makimanya kukala Jesu k'endere na anafundzie mo dauni ela makala madzamuricha
But then some boats from Tiberias came and landed near the place where the people had eaten the day before This was where they had eaten the bread after the Lord gave thanks,Kidza madau mangine kula Tiberia gakidzaima hehi na ho hat'u ambaho at'u were marya mikahe bada ya Bwana Jesu kulazha muvera kwa Mulungu
The people saw that Jesus and his followers were not there now So they got into the boats and went to Capernaum to find Jesus,O at'u marihoona kukala Jesu hedu anafundzie were k'amaho machangira madauni na machenda Kaperinaumu kumumala Jesu
The people found Jesus on the other side of the lake They asked him Teacher when did you come here,Na o at'u marihomona Jesu nyangamo ya ziya makimuza makiamba Rabi hatha wakudza rini be kuno
He answered Why are you looking for me Is it because you saw miraculous signs The truth is you are looking for me because you ate the bread and were satisfied,Jesu akiamba Ninamwambira ujeri ninwi k'amunimala kwa kukala mwaona mana ya miujiza niriyoihenda ela kwa kukala mwarya mikahe hatha muchakuha
But earthly food spoils and ruins So dont work to get that kind of food But work to get the food that stays good and gives you eternal life The Son of Man will give you that food He is the only one qualified by God the Father to give it to you,Bai musihende kazi kwa ut'u wa chakurya kidimacho kunongeka ela kwa ut'u wa chakurya kitoacho na kilazhacho uzima wa kare na kare ambacho ye Mwana wa Mudamu nde andemup'a Iye nde ariye Mulungu Baba adzamup'a wadimi wa kuhenda vizho
The people asked Jesus What does God want us to do,Kudzasikira vizho makimuza makiamba Huhendedze ili hukale hunahenda kazi ya Mulungu
Jesus answered The work God wants you to do is this to believe in the one he sent,Jesu akiamba Ii ndo kazi ambayo Mulungu anahendza muihende mukuluhireni iye ariyemuhuma
So the people asked What miraculous sign will you do for us If we can see you do a miracle then we will believe you What will you do,Makiamba Vidze undahenda muujiza wani ili fuwone na fukukuluhire
Our ancestors were given manna to eat in the desert As the Scriptures say He gave them bread from heaven to eat,Kwani babizehu marya Mana kuko nyika here Maoro gaambazho Waap'a mukahe kula mulunguni makirya
Jesus said I can assure you that Moses was not the one who gave your people bread from heaven But my Father gives you the true bread from heaven,Jesu akiamba Ninamwambira ujeri Musa k'amup'ire chakurya kula mulunguni ela Baba nde amup'aye chakurya jeri kula mulunguni
Gods bread is the one who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world,Kwani chakurya kilazhwacho ni Mulungu ni ye adzaye kula mulunguni na kulazha uzima kwa urumwengu
The people said Sir from now on give us bread like that,Makiamba Bwana hup'e chakurya kiki kwenda-kwenda
Then Jesus said I am the bread that gives life No one who comes to me will ever be hungry No one who believes in me will ever be thirsty,Jesu akiambira Mimi ndimi chakurya cha uzima Mut'u andiyekudza kwangu k'andasikira ndzala kamare na iye andiyenikuluhira mimi k'andasikira k'ihu ng'o
I told you before that you have seen me and still you dont believe,Vikara here nidzizhomwambira mudzanona ela k'amukuluhira
The Father gives me my people Every one of them will come to me I will always accept them,Kila mut'u nindiyep'ewa ni Baba andakudza ko kwangu na iye andiyekudza kwangu sindamuinga bule
I came down from heaven to do what God wants not what I want,Kwani sidzire kula mulunguni kudzahenda mahendzo gangu mwenye ela nakudza ili nihende mahendzo ga iye ariyenihuma
I must not lose anyone God has given me But I must raise them up on the last day This is what the one who sent me wants me to do,Bai iye ariyenihuma anamala nihende vivi Kwamba niafufule o at'u osi arionip'a K'endzi nangamize hatha mumwenga
Everyone who sees the Son and believes in him has eternal life I will raise them up on the last day This is what my Father wants,Kwani zho ahendzazho ye Baba ni vivi Kwamba osi mamonao Mwana na kumukuluhira madime kupata uzima wa kare na kare nami nindaafufula siku ya mwisho
Some Jews began to complain about Jesus because he said I am the bread that comes down from heaven,Ayahudi makiandza kumunung'unika kwa kukala were adzaamba Mimi ndimi chakurya kirichothima kula mulunguni
They said This is Jesus We know his father and mother He is only Josephs son How can he say I came down from heaven,Makiamba Samba yuno ni Jesu mwana wa Josefu Babaye na mameye samba hunaamanya Vikara viandzadze anaamba kukala wathima kula mulunguni
But Jesus said Stop complaining to each other,Jesu akiambira Richani kunung'unikirana
The Father is the one who sent me and he is the one who brings people to me I will raise them up on the last day Anyone the Father does not bring to me cannot come to me,K'akuna adimaye kudza kwangu asihovufwa ni ye Baba ariyenihuma nami nindamufufula siku ya mwisho
It is written in the prophets God will teach them allPeople listen to the Father and learn from him They are the ones who come to me,Manabii mandhika kukala At'u osi mandafundishwa ni Mulungu Kila mut'u amusikiraye ye Baba na kudzifundisha kula kwakwe ni kudza kwangu
I dont mean that there is anyone who has seen the Father The only one who has ever seen the Father is the one who came from God He has seen the Father,Vivi k'avinyesa kukala kuna mut'u yoyosi ariyemona Baba hasihokala iye alaye kwa Mulungu bai iye ndiye ariyemona Baba
I can assure you that anyone who believes has eternal life,Ninamwambira ujeri mut'u akuluhiraye yuna uzima wa kare na kare
I am the bread that gives life,Mimi ndimi chakurya cha uzima
Your ancestors ate the manna God gave them in the desert but it didnt keep them from dying,Babizenu marya Mana kuko nyika kidza makifwa vizho
Here is the bread that comes down from heaven Whoever eats this bread will never die,Ela haha hana chakurya kitharamushwacho kula mulunguni ambacho mut'u anadima kurya na kutsafwa
I am the living bread that came down from heaven Whoever eats this bread will live forever This bread is my body I will give my body so that the people in the world can have life,Mimi ndimi chakurya chenye uzima kirichotharamushwa haha ts'i kula mulunguni Kila mut'u anderya chakurya kiki andakala moyo kare na kare Mukahe uu ni mwiri wangu ambawo ninaulazha kwamba urumwengu upate uzima
Then the Jews began to argue among themselves They said How can this man give us his body to eat,Bai o Ayahudi marihosikira vivi makinenezana enye kwa enye na kuamba Vinadimikikadze yuno mut'u kuhup'a mwiriwe huurye
Jesus said Believe me when I say that you must eat the body of the Son of Man and you must drink his blood If you dont do this you have no real life,Jesu akiamba Ninamwambira ujeri Kala k'amundarya mwiri wa Mwana wa Mudamu na kunwa milatsoye k'amundakala na uzima ndani mwenu
Those who eat my body and drink my blood have eternal life I will raise them up on the last day,Kwani ye aryaye mwiri wangu na kunwa milatso yangu yuna uzima wa kare na kare na nindamufufula siku ya mwisho
My body is true food and my blood is true drink,Kwani wo mwiri wangu ndo chakurya jeri-jeri na milatso yangu ndo kinywaji jeri-jeri
Those who eat my body and drink my blood live in me and I live in them,Mut'u aryaye mwiri wangu na kunwa milatso yangu andakala kit'u kimwenga nami
The Father sent me He lives and I live because of him So everyone who eats me will live because of me,Here Baba ariye moyo arizhonihuma nami ni moyo kwa ut'u wa Baba kwa vizho ye aniryaye andakala moyo kwa ut'u wa mimi
I am not like the bread that your ancestors ate They ate that bread but they still died I am the bread that came down from heaven Whoever eats this bread will live forever,Bai kiki ndo chakurya kirichotharamushwa kula mulunguni Nacho si here kiryahu marichorya babizenu na makifwa Ela iye andiyerya chakurya kiki nindichomup'a andakala moyo kare na kare
Jesus said all this while he was teaching in the synagogue in the city of Capernaum,Jesu wanena vivi arihokala anafundisha kahi za sinagogi kuko Kaperinaumu
When Jesus followers heard this many of them said This teaching is hard Who can accept it,Anji kahi za anafundzie marihosikira vivi maamba Riri ni fundisho komu k'akuna adimaye kurikubali bule
Jesus already knew that his followers were complaining about this So he said Is this teaching a problem for you,Bai Jesu akimanya kukala o anafundzie mananung'unika dzulu ya vivi kwa vizho akiambira Vidze vino vinamukwaza
Then what will you think when you see the Son of Man going up to where he came from,Vidze mundasikiradze mundihomona Mwana wa Mudamu anenda dzulu arikombola
It is the Spirit that gives life The body is of no value for that But the things I have told you are from the Spirit so they give life,Kilazhacho uzima ni Roho wa Mulungu nguvu za mudamu k'azina faidha bule Gago maneno nidzigomwambira ni Roho na uzima
But some of you dont believe Jesus knew the people who did not believe He knew this from the beginning And he knew the one who would hand him over to his enemies,Kidza angine enu k'amukuluhira Jesu wamanya hangu chaho aryahu mario were k'amandamukuluhira na iye andiyemusaliti
Jesus said That is why I said Anyone the Father does not help to come to me cannot come,Na achangeza kuamba Ndosa namwambira kukala k'akuna adimaye kudza kwangu asihodimirwa kuhenda vizho ni Baba
After Jesus said these things many of his followers left and stopped following him,Kwa ut'u uu anji kahi za anafundzie mamuricha na k'amadimire kwenda naye kila hat'u kaheri
Jesus asked the twelve apostles Do you want to leave too,Ndo Jesu akiauza o anafundzie kumi na airi akiamba Vidze munamala muniriche nanwi
Simon Peter answered him Lord where would we go You have the words that give eternal life,Simoni P'et'ero akimudzigidzya akiamba Bwana fukuriche fwende kwa h'ani Uwe una maneno ga uzima wa kare na kare
We believe in you We know that you are the Holy One from God,na hunakuluhira na hunamanya kukala uwe ndiwe Mweri wa Mulungu
Then Jesus answered I chose all twelve of you But one of you is a devil,Kidza Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Vidze simutsagulire ninwi kumi na airi Kidza mumwenga wenu ni Shethani
He was talking about Judas the son of Simon Iscariot Judas was one of the twelve apostles but later he would hand Jesus over to his enemies,Wamanisha Juda mwana wa Simoni Isikariote ambaye vingahokala ni mumwenga kahi za o anafundzie kumi na airi iye were andakudzamusaliti ko mbereni
After this Jesus traveled around the country of Galilee He did not want to travel in Judea because the Jewish leaders there wanted to kill him,Bada ya vivi Jesu wakwenda kuno na kuno kuko Galilaya k'ahendzere kwenda Judea kwa kukala o Ayahudi were manamala kumwalaga
It was time for the Jewish Festival of Shelters,Bai sikuk'uu ya Ayahudi ya Vibanda were idzafika hehi
So his brothers said to him You should leave here and go to the festival in Judea Then your followers there can see the miracles you do,ndo nduguze Jesu makimwambira Mut'u uwe ungauka haha ukenda Judea ili o anafundzio madime kuona zo kazi uhendazo
If you want to be well known you must not hide what you do So if you can do such amazing things let the whole world see you do them,Kwani k'akuna adimaye kufitsa kaziye kala anahendza kumanywa t'ot'ot'o Nawe kwa kukala unahenda maut'u gaga richa urumwengu wosi umanye dzuluzo
Jesus brothers said this because even they did not believe in him,Zhakala vivi kwa kukala hatha nduguze enye kidza k'amamukuluhirire
Jesus said to them The right time for me has not yet come but any time is right for you to go,Kwa vizho Jesu akiambira Wakathi wangu wa karakara k'audzangwe kufika ela kwenu ninwi wakathi wowosi ni karakara
The world cannot hate you But the world hates me because I tell the people in the world that they do evil things,Urumwengu k'audima kumumena ninwi ela unanimena mimi kwa kukala ninamboza ushahidhi kukala vizho uhendazho wo urumwengu ni vii
So you go to the festival I will not go now because the right time for me has not yet come,Vikara ninwi h'e mbukani kwenda ko shereheni Mimi sindakwenda kare vivi bule kwa kukala wakathi wangu k'audzafika
After Jesus said this he stayed in Galilee,Bada ya kunena vivi Jesu wasala kuko Galilaya
So his brothers left to go to the festival After they left Jesus went too but he did not let people see him,Ela bada ya o nduguze kumbuka ko shereheni iye naye wakwenda ela kisiri-siri
At the festival the Jewish leaders were looking for him They said Where is that man,Vikara haho shereheni o Ayahudi mamumala na kumuuziza-uziza na kuamba A hiko yuno mut'u
There was a large group of people there Many of them were talking secretly to each other about Jesus Some people said He is a good man But others said No he fools the people,Kidza kahi za ro kundi mwere muna masumuriro ga kinjama-njama dzuluze Angine were manaamba Ni mut'u mudzo Ela angine makidzigidzya makiamba Anakenga at'u thu
But no one was brave enough to talk about him openly They were afraid of the Jewish leaders,Ela k'ahana ariyenena lwazu-lwazu dzuluze kwa kuagoha o Ayahudi
When the festival was about half finished Jesus went to the Temple area and began to teach,Vikara yo sherehe irihokala idzafika kahikahi Jesu wakwenda mo Hekaluni na akiandza kufundisha
The Jewish leaders were amazed and said How did this man learn so much He never had the kind of teaching we had,K'uzhona zho Ayahudi machangalala na makiamba Vikaladze yuno mut'u anamanya maut'u namuna ino na hatha k'ashomerere zhamwanya
Jesus answered What I teach is not my own My teaching comes from the one who sent me,Jesu akiamba Go nifundishago si mafundisho gangu ela ni ga Mulungu ariyenihuma
People who really want to do what God wants will know that my teaching comes from God They will know that this teaching is not my own,Mut'u akitsagula kuhenda mahendzo ga Mulungu andamanya kukala mafundisho gangu gala kwa Mulungu hedu ninadzinenera mwenye thu
If I taught my own ideas I would just be trying to get honor for myself But if I am trying to bring honor to the one who sent me I can be trusted Anyone doing that is not going to lie,Ye adzineneraye mwenye ni kuhenda vizho ili adzipatire nguma ela ye ahendaye kazi kwa ishima ya iye ariyemuhuma ni mut'u wa ujeri k'ana ulongo bule ndanimwe
Moses gave you the law right But you dont obey that law If you do then why are you trying to kill me,Vidze Musa k'amup'ire sheria Kidza k'ahana hatha mumwenga wenu aithuwaye Mbona munamala kunalaga kaheri
The people answered A demon is making you crazy We are not trying to kill you,O at'u makimwamba Una p'ep'o Ni h'ani amalaye kukwalaga bewe
Jesus said to them I did one miracle on a Sabbath day and you were all surprised,Jesu akiaamba Nahenda muujiza mumwenga thu nanwi nyosi muchangalala
But you obey the law Moses gave you about circumcisionand sometimes you do it on a Sabbath day Really Moses is not the one who gave you circumcision It came from our ancestors who lived before Moses Yes you often circumcise baby boys on a Sabbath day,Musa wamup'a amulo mungize lwembeni ahoho nanwi munavihenda siku ya Sabato ingahokala sheria ii k'aiandzire na Musa ela yaandza na o babizenu
This shows that someone can be circumcised on a Sabbath day to obey the Law of Moses So why are you angry with me for healing a persons whole body on the Sabbath day,Na siku ya kwangizwa lwembeni ikigwa siku ya Sabato ni suthi mumwangize lwembeni vizho ili Sheria ya Musa isibandwe Mbona munanitsukirirwa kwa kukala namuhoza mut'u siku ya Sabato
Stop judging by the way things look Be fair and judge by what is really right,Richani kuhukumu kwa kumulola mut'u kwa uso ela hukumuni kwa ngira ya hachi
Then some of the people who lived in Jerusalem said This is the man they are trying to kill,Kusikira vizho at'u angine a Jerusalemu makiamba Vidze yuno se mut'u aindzwaye alagwe
But he is teaching where everyone can see and hear him And no one is trying to stop him from teaching Maybe the leaders have decided that he really is the Messiah,Lola thiyu ananena wazi-wazi na k'akuna anenaye vii dzuluze Vidze vinadimikika kukala vilongozi manamanya kukala yuno ni ye Masihi
But when the real Messiah comes no one will know where he comes from And we know where this mans home is,Ela hunamanya ko alako yuyu Ye Masihi andihokudza k'akuna andiyemanya alako
Jesus was still teaching in the Temple area when he said loudly Do you really know me and where I am from I am here but not by my own decision I was sent by one who is very real But you dont know him,Bai Jesu akifundisha kahi za ro Hekalu akiluta mumirowe akiamba Ee munanimanya na munamanya ko nirikombola Mimi si haha kitswa changu ela ye ariyenihuma ni jeri Ninwi k'amumumanya
I know him because I am from him He is the one who sent me,ela mimi ninamumanya kwa kukala nila kwakwe na iye ndiye ariyenihuma
When Jesus said this the people tried to grab him But no one was able even to touch him because the right time for him had not yet come,Kusikira vizho makijeza kumugwira ela k'akuna mut'u ariyemugut'a kwa kukala wakathiwe were k'audzafika
But many of the people believed in Jesus They said We are waiting for the Messiah to come When he comes will he do more miraculous signs than this man has done,Ela anji ao kahi za ro kundi mamukuluhira na kuamba Vidze ye Masihi akidza andahenda miujiza kushinda ii ahendayo mut'u yuyu
The Pharisees heard what the people were saying about Jesus So the leading priests and the Pharisees sent some Temple police to arrest him,Bai Mafarisayo makisikira kundi rinanena kinjama-njama maut'u gago dzuluze Kwa vizho alombi abomu na Mafarisayo makiahuma arindzi a ro Hekalu makamugwire
Then Jesus said I will be with you a little while longer Then I will go back to the one who sent me,Jesu akiamba Nindakala nanwi kwa muda muchache na gonya nindakwenda kwa iye ariyenihuma
You will look for me but you will not find me And you cannot come where I am,Mundanimala na k'amundanona kwa kukala ko nindikokala k'amudima kudza
These Jews said to each other Where will this man go that we cannot find him Will he go to the Greek cities where our people live Will he teach the Greek people there,Kusikira vizho o Ayahudi makiambirana enye kwa enye na kuamba Yuno mut'u anapanga kwendahi ambako k'ahudima kumona Vidze andakwenda kahi za midzi ya at'u mario si Ayahudi ambako Ayahudi andziyehu manakala Vikale andakwendaafundisha o at'u mario si Ayahudi kuko
He says You will look for me but you will not find me He also says You cannot come where I am What does this mean,Anaamba Mundanimala ela k'amundanona na k'amudima kudza ko nindikokala Vidze manaye ni noni
The last day of the festival came It was the most important day On that day Jesus stood up and said loudly Whoever is thirsty may come to me and drink,Siku ya mwisho ya sherehe were ndo siku bomu kukira zosi Siku iyo Jesu akiima na akiluta mumiro akiamba Mwenye k'ihu naadze kwangu anwe
If anyone believes in me rivers of living water will flow out from their heart That is what the Scriptures say,Here Maoro gaambazho Ye anikuluhiraye vidzuho zha madzi ga uzima vindathuza kula moyoni mwakwe
Jesus was talking about the Spirit The Spirit had not yet been given to people because Jesus had not yet been raised to glory But later those who believed in Jesus would receive the Spirit,Jesu waamba ut'u uu dzulu za ye Roho ariye aryahu mandiomukuluhira were mandamup'ewa Kwani Kufikira siku ii were k'adzadza kwa kukala Jesu were k'adzangwe kugerwa ngumaye
When the people heard the things that Jesus said some of them said This man really is the Prophet,At'u marihosikira zho arizhoamba Makiamba Mut'u yuyu nde yuyahu nabii
Other people said He is the Messiah,Ela angine makiamba Yuyu nde iye Masihi Angine o makiamba Masihi k'adima kula Galilaya
The Scriptures say that the Messiah will come from the family of David And they say that he will come from Bethlehem the town where David lived,Go Maoro ganaamba kukala ye Masihi andambola lukolo lwa Daudi na andazhalwa Beth'elehemu mudzi wa Daudi
So the people did not agree with each other about Jesus,Kwa vizho at'u makigazhikana kwa ut'u wa Jesu
Some of the people wanted to arrest him But no one tried to do it,Angine mamala kumugwira ela k'ahana hatha mumwenga ariyemugut'a
The Temple police went back to the leading priests and the Pharisees The priests and the Pharisees asked Why didnt you bring Jesus,Bai o arindzi makiuya kwa o alombi abomu na Mafarisayo marioauza makiamba Mbona k'amudzire naye kaheri
The Temple police answered We have never heard anyone say such amazing things,O arindzi makiamba K'akuna mut'u anenayet'o here yuyu
The Pharisees answered So he has fooled you too,O Mafarisayo makiuza makiamba Vidze mwakengwa nanwi
You dont see any of the leaders or any of us Pharisees believing in him do you,Mudzangwe kuona kilongozi yoyosi hedu mumwenga kahi za Mafarisayo kumukuluhira
But those people out there know nothing about the law They are under Gods curse,Kundi riri k'arimanya Sheria ya Musa kwa vizho ri ts'ini ya lana ya Mulungu
But Nicodemus was there in that group He was the one who had gone to see Jesus beforeHe said,Nikodemu ariyekala wakwendamona Jesu na usiku ho nyuma-nyuma were ni mumwenga wa o vilongozi naye akiambira vivi
Our law will not let us judge anyone without first hearing them and finding out what they have done,Kuthuwirizana na Sheria yehu k'ahudima kumuhukumu mut'u kabila kumusikira na kumanya adzahendadze
The Jewish leaders answered You must be from Galilee too Study the Scriptures You will find nothing about a prophetcoming from Galilee,Makimwamba Mwenye ula Galilaya Shoma Maoro na undamanya kukala k'akuna nabii ambolaye Galilaya
Then they all left and went home,Gonya kila mumwenga achenda kwakwe mudzini
Jesus went to the Mount of Olives,Ela Jesu ye achenda kahi za Murima wa Mizeituni
Early in the morning he went back to the Temple area The people all came to him and he sat and taught them,Na kurihocha na madzach'a maitsi sana akiuya kaheri ndani za ro Hekalu ndo at'u osini makimukundzumanyikira hamwenga bai akikelesi na akiandza kuafundisha
The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought a woman they had caught in bed with a man who was not her husband They forced her to stand in front of the people,K'uzhona zho o alimu a Sheria na Mafarisayo makireha mwanamuche ariyekala adzagwirwa anazinga na makimuimisha mbere zao osi
They said to Jesus Teacher this woman was caught in the act of adultery,Makiamba Mwalimu mwanamuche yuyu adzagwirwa akuzingani
The Law of Moses commands us to stone to death any such woman What do you say we should do,Vikara kahi za Sheria yehu Musa wahulagiza kukala hualage anaache mario dza yuyu kwa kuapiga mawe Vikara we unaambadze
They were saying this to trick Jesus They wanted to catch him saying something wrong so that they could have a charge against him But Jesus stooped down and started writing on the ground with his finger,Nao were mananena vivi kumuhega ili mapate ut'u wa kumushithakira Ela Jesu akizama akiandza kuora-ora ho ts'i na chala
The Jewish leaders continued to ask him their question So he stood up and said Anyone here who has never sinned should throw the first stone at her,Marihokaza kumuza-muza maswali akidziungaraza na akiamba Ye asiye na dambi kahi za ninwi na akale wa kwandza kumupiga iwe
Then Jesus stooped down again and wrote on the ground,Kidza akizama kaheri na akiora-ora ho ts'i na chala
When they heard this they began to leave one by one The older men left first and then the others Jesus was left alone with the woman standing there in front of him,Marihosikira vivi makiandza kuuka mumwenga-mumwenga kuandzira na o akulu Jesu akirichwa h'akeye na ye mwanamuche haho
He looked up again and said to her Where did they all go Did no one judge you guilty,Akiima na akimuza ye mwanamuche akiamba M'ama ma hiko arya at'u Vidze hana adziyesala kukuhukumu
She answered No one sir,Akidzigidzya akiamba K'ahana Bwana Jesu akiamba Hatha mimi sikuhukumu Enda ela usihende dambi kaheri
Later Jesus talked to the people again He said I am the light of the world Whoever follows me will never live in darkness They will have the light that gives life,Badaye Jesu akinena na o at'u kaheri akiamba Mimi ndimi mulangaza wa urumwengu Anithuwaye k'andanenda kizani kamare andakala na mulangaza wa uzima
But the Pharisees said to Jesus When you talk about yourself you are the only one to say that these things are true So we cannot accept what you say,Kusikira vizho o Mafarisayo makimwambira Uwe unadzishuhudia we mwenye bai wo ushahidhi wa kwako si wa ujeri
Jesus answered Yes I am saying these things about myself But people can believe what I say because I know where I came from And I know where I am going But you dont know where I came from or where I am going,Jesu akiamba Hatha chamba ninadzambozeza mwenye ushahidhi be ninenazho ni jeri kwa kukala ninamanya nilako na nendako ela ninwi k'amukumanya ko nilako na ko nendako
You judge me the way people judge other people I dont judge anyone,Hukumu yenu ni ya kibinadamu Mino si hukumu mut'u
But if I judge my judging is true because when I judge I am not alone The Father who sent me is with me,Ela hatha kala were ni nihukumu hukumu yangu ikakala ya ujeri kwa kukala si h'akiyangu kahi za vivi Iye Baba ariyenihuma yu hamwenga nami
Your own law says that when two witnesses say the same thing you must accept what they say,Zhaorwa kahi za Sheria yenu kukala ushahidhi wa at'u airi ukikubaliana bai zho maambazho ni kukala ni vikubaliwe
I am one of the witnesses who speaks about myself And the Father who sent me is my other witness,Ninadzambozeza ushahidhi na Baba ariyenihuma naye ananambozeza ushahidhi
The people asked Where is your father,Makimuza makiamba Babayo yu hiko Jesu akiamba K'amunimanya mimi hedu Baba Kalaho munanimanya mukamumanya Baba naye
Jesus said these things while he was teaching in the Temple area near the room where the Temple offerings were kept But no one arrested him because the right time for him had not yet come,Jesu wanena gaga arihokala anafundisha kahi za ro Hekalu kahi za haryahu hat'u hagwagwaho sadaka na k'akuna ariyemugwira kwa kukala wakathiwe were k'audzafika bule
Again Jesus said to the people I will leave you You will look for me but you will die in your sin You cannot come where I am going,Jesu akiambira kaheri Ninenda na mundanimala ela mundafwa kahi za dambi zenu Kuko nendako k'amudima kudza
So the Jewish leaders asked themselves Will he kill himself Is that why he said You cannot come where I am going,O Ayahudi makiamba Anaamba kukala k'ahudima kwenda ko endako enye vino vinaonyesa kukala andadzalaga hedu
But Jesus said to them You people are from here below but I am from above You belong to this world but I dont belong to this world,Jesu akienderera kunena akiamba Ninwi mula haha ts'i ela mimi nila dzulu Ninwi mu a urumwengu uu ela mimi si wa urumwengu uu
I told you that you would die in your sins Yes if you dont believe that I AMyou will die in your sins,Ndosa nidzamwambira kukala mundafwa kahi za dambi zenu Na mundafwa kahi za dambi zenu kala k'amundakuluhira kukala Mimi ndimi iye
They asked Then who are you,Makimuza makiamba U h'ani we Jesu akiamba Ni vizho nidzizhomwambira hangu chaho
I have much more I could say to judge you But I tell people only what I have heard from the one who sent me and he speaks the truth,Nina manji ga kunena ga kumushithaki ninwi Ela iye ariyenihuma ni mujeri na ninawambira urumwengu zho nirizhosikira kula kwakwe
They did not understand who he was talking about He was telling them about the Father,Nao k'amamanyire kukala were anaambira dzulu za Baba
So he said to them You will lift upthe Son of Man Then you will know that I AM You will know that whatever I do is not by my own authority You will know that I say only what the Father has taught me,Bai Jesu akiambira Mundihomwanula Mwana wa Mudamu mundamanya kukala mimi ndimi iye kidza mundamanya kukala sihenda kit'u h'akiyangu ela ninanena gago adzigonifundisha Baba
The one who sent me is with me I always do what pleases him So he has not left me alone,Na iye ariyenihuma a hamwenga nami k'adzaniricha h'akiyangu kwa kukala ninahenda gamufwahizago kila wakathi
While he was saying these things many people believed in him,Anji mariomusikira Jesu akinena maut'u gaga mamukuluhira
So Jesus said to the Jews who believed in him If you continue to accept and obey my teaching you are really my followers,Bai Jesu akiambira o Ayahudi mariomukuluhira Mukienderera kugwira mafundisho gangu be mu anafundzi angu jeri-jeri
You will know the truth and the truth will make you free,mundamanya ujeri na wo ujeri undamwika huru
They answered We are Abrahams descendants And we have never been slaves So why do you say that we will be free,O Ayahudi makiamba Siswi fwazhalwa ni Burahemu na k'ahudzakala atumwa a mut'u vikara unamanisha noni kuamba Mundakala huru
Jesus said The truth is everyone who sins is a slavea slave to sin,Jesu akiamba Ninamwambira ujeri Kila mut'u ahendaye dambi ni mutumwa wa dambi
A slave does not stay with a family forever But a son belongs to the family forever,Na mutumwa k'akala nyumbani kila wakathi ela mwana akala nyumbani kila wakathi
So if the Son makes you free you are really free,Bai Mwana akikwika huru undakala huru jeri-jeri
I know you are Abrahams descendants But you want to kill me because you dont want to accept my teaching,Ninamanya kukala mu ana a Burahemu ela kidza munamala kunalaga kwa kukala k'amukubali mafundisho gangu
I am telling you what my Father has shown me But you do what your father has told you,Mimi ninanena garyahu ambago Baba wanonyesa ela ninwi munahenda go mudzigombirwa ni babiyenu
They said Our father is Abraham,Makimudzigidzya makiamba Babiyehu ni Burahemu Jesu akiamba Kalaho mu ana a Burahemu mukahenda kazi arizozihenda Burahemu
I am someone who has told you the truth I heard from God But you are trying to kill me Abraham did nothing like that,Nidzizhohenda mimi ni kumwambira ujeri niriwousikira kula kwa Mulungu kidza munamala kunalaga Burahemu k'ahendere kit'u dza kiki
So you are doing what your own father did,Ela ninwi munahenda vizho ahendazho babiyenu Makiamba Mulungu h'akeye nde Babiyehu naswi hu anae
Jesus said to them If God were really your Father you would love me I came from God and now I am here I did not come by my own authority God sent me,Jesu akiambira Kalaho Mulungu nde babiyenu jeri munganihendza kwa kukala nala kwakwe na vikara ni haha
You dont understand the things I say because you cannot accept my teaching,Kwanoni k'amuelewa zho nimwambirazho Ni kwa kukala k'amudima kusikira uvoro wangu
Your father is the devil You belong to him You want to do what he wants He was a murderer from the beginning He was always against the truth There is no truth in him He is like the lies he tells Yes the devil is a liar He is the father of lies,At'u ninwi mu a babiyenu Ibilisi na muhendzazho ni kuhenda mahendzoge Iye were ni mwalagi hangu chaho na k'endzi kit'u chochosi kuhusu ujeri kwa kukala k'amuna ujeri ndanimwe Akikenga ananena here arizho kwani ni mulongo na nde babe ulongo
I am telling you the truth and thats why you dont believe me,Ela kwa kukala ninanena ujeri k'amunikuluhira
Can any of you prove that I am guilty of sin If I tell the truth why dont you believe me,Ni h'ani kahi zenu adimaye kunamba nina dambi H'aya ninanena ujeri mbona k'amunikuluhira
Whoever belongs to God accepts what he says But you dont accept what God says because you dont belong to God,Iye ariye ni wa Mulungu ni kusikira manenoge Ela ninwi k'amua Mulungu ndosa k'amundasikira
The Jews there answered We say you are a Samaritan We say a demon is making you crazy Are we not right when we say this,Bai o Ayahudi makimudzigidzya Jesu makiamba Vidze were k'ahuajeri kuamba u Musamaria na una p'ep'o
Jesus answered I have no demon in me I give honor to my Father but you give no honor to me,Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Sina p'ep'o Ninamuheshimu Baba ela ninwi k'amuniishimu bule
I am not trying to get honor for myself There is one who wants this honor for me He is the judge,Sidzimalira ishima ela kuna mumwenga aimalaye na iye bai ndiye jaji
I promise you whoever continues to obey my teaching will never die,Ninamwambira ujeri iye ahendaye here nilagizazho k'andafwa bule
The Jews said to Jesus Now we know that you have a demon in you Even Abraham and the prophets died But you say Whoever obeys my teaching will never die,Kusikira vizho o Ayahudi makimwambira Vikara hunamanya kukala jeri wenye una p'ep'o Burahemu wafwa na o manabii nao dzazho kidza unaamba kukala yoyosi andiyehenda go uhendzago k'andafwa bule
Do you think you are greater than our father Abraham He died and so did the prophets Who do you think you are,Vidze we u mubomu kuriko babiyehu Burahemu na o manabii Burahemu wafwa na o manabii nao makifwa Unadziona u h'ani we
Jesus answered If I give honor to myself that honor is worth nothing The one who gives me honor is my Father And you say that he is your God,Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Nikidzip'a nguma mwenye nguma yangu k'aina mana yoyosi Baba ariye nanwi munaamba ni Mulungu wenu ananipa nguma
But you dont really know him I know him If I said I did not know him I would be a liar like you But I do know him and I obey what he says,Vingahokala ninwi k'amumumanya mimi ninamumanya Nikiamba simumanya nindakala mulongo here ninwi ela ninamumanya na kugwira nenore
Your father Abraham was very happy that he would see the day when I came He saw that day and was happy,Babiyenu Burahemu wafwahirwa kwamba adime kuyona siku yangu naye akiyona na akifwahirwa
The Jews said to Jesus What How can you say you have seen Abraham You are not even 50 years old,O Ayahudi makimwambira K'udzafisha miaka mirongo mitsano na unaamba wamona Burahemu
Jesus answered The fact is before Abraham was born I AM,Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Ninamwambira ujeri kabila ya Burahemu kuzhalwa mino were ni kuko kare
When he said this they picked up stones to throw at him But Jesus hid and then he left the Temple area,Ndo makitsola mawe mamukot'e ela Jesu akizama na badaye achambola mo Hekaluni achenda ndze
While Jesus was walking he saw a man who had been blind since the time he was born,Bai Jesu arihokala yunatsembera waona mut'u ariyekala k'aona hangu kuzhalwakwe
Jesus followers asked him Teacher why was this man born blind Whose sin made it happen Was it his own sin or that of his parents,K'uzhona zho anafundzie makimuza makiamba Rabi ni dambi ya h'ani iriyomuhendya hatha azhalwe k'aona Ni yakwe mwenye hedu ni ya azhazie
Jesus answered It was not any sin of this man or his parents that caused him to be blind He was born blind so that he could be used to show what great things God can do,Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Kutsaona kwa kwakwe k'akuhusiana na dambize hedu za azhazie Iye avizho ili nguvu za Mulungu zidime kuoneka zikihenda kazi kwakwe
While it is daytime we must continue doing the work of the one who sent me The night is coming and no one can work at night,Bai hunavirya kuenderera kuhenda kazi za iye ariyenihuma kukikala kuchere mutsana kwani usiku unadza ambaho k'akuna adimaye kuhenda kazi
While I am in the world I am the light of the world,Nirizho ni haha urumwenguni mimi ni mulangaza wa urumwengu
After Jesus said this he spit on the dirt made some mud and put it on the mans eyes,Bada ya kunena vivi Jesu watsuha mahe ts'i na akivuga-vuga ulongo na mahege na akimuhaka ye mut'u mo matsoni
Jesus told him Go and wash in Siloam pool Siloam means Sent So the man went to the pool washed and came back He was now able to see,na akimwamba Enda ukaoge usowo kahi za birika ra Siloamu Mana ya Siloamu ni kuhumwa Bai ye mut'u achendaoga usowe na akiuya anaona
His neighbors and some others who had seen him begging said Look Is this the same man who always sits and begs,Bai majirani a kwakwe na osini mariokala makimona anavoya-voya kabila ya vivi mauza makiamba Vidze yuno se mut'u ariyekala akikelesi na kuvoya-voya
Some people said Yes He is the one But others said No he cant be the same man He only looks like him,Angine maamba Ni iye Ela angine makiamba Seye bule adzahenda kuhalana naye Bai ye mut'u mwenye akiamba Ndimi iye
They asked What happened How did you get your sight,Makimuza ye mut'u makiamba Matsogo gapatadze kuona
He answered The man they call Jesus made some mud and put it on my eyes Then he told me to go to Siloam and wash So I went there and washed And then I could see,Akiamba Ye mut'u aifwaye Jesu wavuga-vuga ulongo akinihaka mo matsoni na akinambira Enda Siloamu na ukaoge usowo Bai nichenda na nirihooga thu nikipata kuona
They asked him Where is this man,Makimuza makiamba Vino a hiko ye mut'u ye Ye mut'u akiamba Simanya mino
Then the people brought the man to the Pharisees,Bai makimuhirika ye mut'u ariyezhalwa k'aona kwa Mafarisayo
The day Jesus had made mud and healed the mans eyes was a Sabbath day,Vikara siku iryahu ambayo Jesu wavuga-vuga ulongo na kumuhendya matsoge gaone ye mut'u yere ni siku ya Sabato
So the Pharisees asked the man How did you get your sight,Mafarisayo makimuza kaheri ye mut'u here arizhopata kuona Akiambira Wanihaka ulongo matsoni nichendaoga uso wangu na vikara ninaona
Some of the Pharisees said That man does not obey the law about the Sabbath day So he is not from God,Mafarisayo angine makiamba Ye mut'u ariyehenda vizho k'adima kula kwa Mulungu bule kwa kukala k'agwira malagizo ga yo Sabato Hatha vizho angine maamba Vidimikikadze mut'u ariye na dambi kuhenda kazi bomu dza zizi Na k'amakubalianire
They asked the man again Since it was your eyes he healed what do you say about him,Bai Mafarisayo makimuza ye mut'u kaheri Unaamba kukala wakuhendya matsogo gaone H'aya unaambadze dzulu ya ye Akiamba Ni nabii iye
The Jewish leaders still did not believe that this really happened to the manthat he was blind and was now healed But later they sent for his parents,O Ayahudi k'amakuluhirire kukala were k'aona na wapata kuona muhaka marihohumiza azhazie
They asked them Is this your son You say he was born blind So how can he see,Marihokudza makiauza makiamba Vidze yuno ni mwana wenu Munaamba kukala wazhalwa k'aona h'aya zhakaladze hatha vino anaona
His parents answered We know that this man is our son And we know that he was born blind,Azhazie makiamba Hunamanya kukala yuyu ni mwana wehu na hunamanya kukala wazhalwa k'aona
But we dont know why he can see now We dont know who healed his eyes Ask him He is old enough to answer for himself,Ela k'ahumanya kala zhaandzadze hatha anaona na hatha ye ariyemuhendya aone k'ahumumanya Muzeni iye mwenye kwani ni mut'u muzima anadima kudzinenera mwenye
They said this because they were afraid of the Jewish leaders The leaders had already decided that they would punish anyone who said Jesus was the Messiah They would stop them from coming to the synagogue,Azhazie manena vivi kwa kukala were manaogoha Ayahudi mariokala madzakubaliana kukala mut'u yoyosi andiyeamba kukala Jesu ni Masihi andaingwa mo sinagogini
That is why his parents said He is old enough Ask him,Vizho ndo hatha azhazie makiamba Ni mut'u muzima muzeni mwenye
So the Jewish leaders called the man who had been blind They told him to come in again They said You should honor God by telling the truth We know that this man is a sinner,K'uzhona zho makimwiha kaheri ye mut'u ariyezhalwa k'aona na makimwambira Mup'e nguma Mulungu mana siswi hunamanya kukala yuyu mut'u yuyu ni mwenye dambi
The man answered I dont know if he is a sinner But I do know this I was blind and now I can see,Akidzigidzya akiamba Kala ni mwenye dambi hedu si mwenye dambi mino simanya Nimanyacho ni kit'u kimwenga were siona ela vino ninaona
They asked What did he do to you How did he heal your eyes,Makiuza makiamba Wakuhenderadze Wahendadze hatha matsogo gakiona
He answered I have already told you that But you would not listen to me Why do you want to hear it again Do you want to be his followers too,Akidzigidzya akiamba Nidzamwambira kare na k'amudimire kusikiza Mbona munamala kusikira kaheri Hedu hangine munamala mukale anafundzie nanwi
At this they shouted insults at him and said You are his follower not us We are followers of Moses,Makimuchemera makiamba Uwe ndiwe mwanafundzi wa mut'u iye ela sino hu anafundzi a Musa
We know that God spoke to Moses But we dont even know where this man comes from,Hunamanya kukala Mulungu wanena na Musa ela kuhusu mut'u yuyu k'ahumanya hatha ko arikombola
The man answered This is really strange You dont know where he comes from but he healed my eyes,Ye mut'u akidzigidzya akiamba Kiki ni kit'u cha kwangalaza sana K'amumanya arikombola na wanihendya nione
We all know that God does not listen to sinners but he will listen to anyone who worships and obeys him,Hunamanya kukala Mulungu k'asikira enye dambi ela iye nikusikira at'u mamuishimuo na kuhenda ahendzazho mahende
This is the first time we have ever heard of anyone healing the eyes of someone born blind,Hangu wo urumwengu uumbwe k'avidzangwe kuonewa kukala mut'u fulani wamuhendya mut'u ariyezhalwa k'aona aone
This man must be from God If he were not from God he could not do anything like this,Kalaho mut'u iye k'ambolere kwa Mulungu be k'angadimire kuhenda kit'u
The Jewish leaders answered You were born full of sin Are you trying to teach us And they told the man to get out of the synagogue and to stay out,Kusikira vizho makimudzigidzya makiamba Uwe wazhalwa na ukirerwa dambini na vino unamala kuhufundisha Bai makimuinga sinagogini
When Jesus heard that they had forced the man to leave he found him and asked him Do you believe in the Son of Man,K'uzhona zho Jesu akisikira kukala mamuthenga Bai arihomona akimuza Vidze unamukuluhira Mwana wa Mudamu
The man said Tell me who he is sir so I can believe in him,Ye mut'u akiamba Nambira ni h'ani bwana ili nimukuluhire
Jesus said to him You have already seen him The Son of Man is the one talking with you now,Jesu akimwambira Udzamona kare na ni ye anenaye nawe vivi
The man answered Yes I believe Lord Then he bowed and worshiped Jesus,Ye mut'u akiamba Ninakuluhira Bwana na akimuabudu Jesu
Jesus said I came into this world so that the world could be judged I came so that people who are blindcould see And I came so that people who think they see would become blind,Jesu akiamba Nakudza urumwenguni na hukumu kwamba masioona maone na maonao makatsaona
Some of the Pharisees were near Jesus They heard him say this They asked What Are you saying that we are blind too,Mafarisayo angine mariokala hehi naye mavisikira vivi na makimwamba Vidze naswi k'ahuona
Jesus said If you were really blind you would not be guilty of sin But you say that you see so you are still guilty,Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Kala k'amuona ngere k'amuna dambi ela kwa kukala munaamba munaona be dambi yenu i nanwi
There was a man named Lazarus who was sick He lived in the town of Bethany where Mary and her sister Martha lived,Bai kwereko mut'u mumwenga ariyeifwa Lazaro Mut'u yuyu were anaishi na nduguze airi a kiche mario were ni Maryamu na Marith'a ko mudzi wa Beth'ania Siku mwenga akikala mukongo
Mary is the same woman who put perfume on the Lord and wiped his feet with her hair Marys brother was Lazarus the man who was now sick,Maryamu yuyu ni yuyahu ariyemumwagira mafuha Bwana maguluni na akigahangusa na nyereze Bai iye ndiye ariyekala nduguye Lazaro k'adima
So Mary and Martha sent someone to tell Jesus Lord your dear friend Lazarus is sick,Bai ao nduguze a kiche makihuma uvoro kwa Jesu kuamba Bwana musenao wa kurya na kuusa ni mukongo
When Jesus heard this he said The end of this sickness will not be death No this sickness is for the glory of God This has happened to bring glory to the Son of God,Ela Jesu arihosikira akiamba Ukongo uu si wa kifwa ela ni wa kumup'a nguma Mulungu Na kwa ut'u wa ukongo uu Mwana wa Mulungu andaluta nguma
Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus,Jesu wamuhendza Marith'a hamwenga na Maryamu na ndugu yao Lazaro
So when he heard that Lazarus was sick he stayed where he was two more days,Gonya ko arihosikira uvoro wa ukongo wa Lazaro k'aukire kare kwenda ela watoa haho siku mbiri nyingine zaidhi
and then said to his followers We should go back to Judea,Halafu ndo akiambira o anafundzie akiamba Hindeni Judea kaheri
They answered But Teacher those Jews there tried to stone you to death That was only a short time ago Now you want to go back there,O anafundzi marihosikira vizho makimudzigidzya makiamba Rabi dzuzi-dzuzi Ayahudi mamala kukukot'a mawe na vino unamala kuuya kuko kaheri mbona
Jesus answered There are twelve hours of light in the day Whoever walks in the day will not stumble and fall because they can see with the light from the sun,Jesu akiamba Mutsana una masaa kumi na mairi hedu sozho Bai mut'u akitsembera na mutsana k'akwala kwa kukala anaona mulangaza wa urumwengu
But whoever walks at night will stumble because there is no light,Ela akitsembera na usiku andakwala kwa kukala k'ana mulangaza ndanimwe
Then Jesus said Our friend Lazarus is now sleeping but I am going there to wake him,Jesu bada ya kunena vivi achangeza akiamba Musena wehu Lazaro arere ela nindakwenda nikamulamuse
The followers answered But Lord if he can sleep he will get well,Kusikira vizho o anafundzi makiamba Kala arere andauka
They thought Jesus meant that Lazarus was literally sleeping but he really meant that Lazarus was dead,Ela Jesu were anaamba kukala adzanongeka ela ao maona kukala arere uts'indzizi
So then Jesus said plainly Lazarus is dead,Bai Jesu akiambira lwazu-lwazu Lazaro adzafwa
And I am glad I was not there I am happy for you because now you will believe in me We will go to him now,ela kwa ut'u wenu ninafwahirwa kukala sikalireho ili mudime kukuluhira Ela nafwende ko kwakwe
Then Thomas the one called Twin said to the other followers We will go too We will die there with Jesus,T'omasi aifwaye P'ats'a akiambira anafundzi andziye akiamba Hindeni nanwi hukafwe naye
Jesus arrived in Bethany and found that Lazarus had already been dead and in the tomb for four days,Jesu arihofika Beth'ania akithekeza kukala Lazaro were wafwa na hatha were wazikwa kare siku ne zirizokira
Bethany was about two milesfrom Jerusalem,Mudzi wa Beth'ania were u hehi na Jerusalemu kiasi cha maili mbiri vivi
Many Jews had come to see Martha and Mary They came to comfort them about their brother Lazarus,Bai Ayahudi anji mere madzire kuap'a p'ore Marith'a na Maryamu kwa ut'u wa cho kifwa cha ndugu yao
When Martha heard that Jesus was coming she went out to greet him But Mary stayed home,K'uzhona zho Marith'a arihosikira Jesu anadza wambola kumudhana ela Maryamu ye akisala mo nyumbani
Martha said to Jesus Lord if you had been here my brother would not have died,Ndiho Marith'a akimwamba Jesu Bwana kalaho were u haha ndugu yangu k'angafwere
But I know that even now God will give you anything you ask,ela hatha vizho ninamanya kukala Mulungu andakup'a chochosi undichomuvoya
Jesus said Your brother will rise and be alive again,Jesu akimwamba Nduguyo andafufuka
Martha answered I know that he will rise to live again at the time of the resurrection on the last day,Marith'a akidzigidzya Ninamanya kukala andafufuka siku ya mwisho
Jesus said to her I am the resurrection I am life Everyone who believes in me will have life even if they die,Jesu akimwamba Mimi ndimi ufufulo na ndimi uzima Iye anikuluhiraye mimi hatha akafwa kidza andakala moyo kaheri
And everyone who lives and believes in me will never really die Martha do you believe this,na ye ariye moyo na akinikuluhira k'andafwa bule Unagakuluhira go
Martha answered Yes Lord I believe that you are the Messiah the Son of God You are the one who was coming to the world,Marith'a akiamba Ee Bwana ninakukuluhira kukala ndiwe Masihi Mwana wa Mulungu ariyeambwa andakudza urumwenguni
After Martha said these things she went back to her sister Mary She talked to Mary alone and said The Teacher is here He is asking for you,Marith'a arihogonya kunena vivi wauya na achendamwiha nduguye Maryamu k'anda Akimwamba Mwalimu adzire na anakurunga
When Mary heard this she stood up and went quickly to Jesus,Bai Maryamu arihosikira vizho akiuka haraka na achendamudhana
He had not yet come into the village He was still at the place where Martha met him,Jesu were k'adzafika ho mudzini ela were achere haryahu arihothunganana na Marith'a
The Jews who were in the house comforting Mary saw her get up and leave quickly They thought she was going to the tomb to cry there So they followed her,O Ayahudi mariokala manamuhuriza Maryamu mo nyumbani marihoona viryahu adzizhombola haraka na kwenda ndze makimuthuwa makiona kukala anenda akarire ko mbirani
Mary went to the place where Jesus was When she saw him she bowed at his feet and said Lord if you had been here my brother would not have died,Bai Maryamu arihofika haho arihokala Jesu na kumona thu akigwa maguluni hakwe Akiamba Bwana kalaho were u haha ndugu yangu k'angafwere
When Jesus saw Mary crying and the people with her crying too he was very upset and deeply troubled,Jesu arihomona anarira na o Ayahudi mariokudza naye nao manarira achangirwa ni mbazi na akibudzyika moyoni mwakwe zhomu
He asked Where did you put him,Akiuza akiamba Mwamulazahi kwani Makimwamba Bwana ndzo uhalole
Jesus cried,Jesu akirira
And the Jews said Look He loved Lazarus very much,Bai o Ayahudi makiamba Lolani zho arizhokala anamuhendza
But some of them said Jesus healed the eyes of the blind man Why didnt he help Lazarus and stop him from dying,Ela ko angine makiamba Vidze ye ariyemuhendya mut'u asiyeona aone vidze were k'angadimire kumuhendya yuno akatsafwa
Again feeling very upset Jesus came to the tomb It was a cave with a large stone covering the entrance,Jesu akidzalwa ni mbazi kaheri achenda ko mbirani Yo mbira were ni p'anga iriyo na iwe ririrokinganywa ho mulomoni
He said Move the stone away,Bai Jesu akilagiza akiamba Usani ro iwe hedu Marith'a nduguye ye mufwa akidzigidzya akiamba Kundakala na muruk'e mui Bwana mana rero ni ne hangu azikwe
Then Jesus said to her Remember what I told you I said that if you believed you would see Gods divine greatness,Jesu akimwambira Vidze sikwambirire kukala undaona nguma ya Mulungu ukikuluhira
So they moved the stone away from the entrance Then Jesus looked up and said Father I thank you that you heard me,Bai makirusa ro iwe Jesu akilola ko dzulu na akiamba Ninakulazhira muvera Baba kwa kukala unanisikira
I know that you always hear me But I said these things because of the people here around me I want them to believe that you sent me,Ninamanya kukala unanisikira siku zosi ela ninanena vivi kwa ut'u wa aa haha ili makuluhire kukala wanihuma
After Jesus said this he called in a loud voice Lazarus come out,Bada ya kunena vivi akiluta mumiro kuiha Akiamba Lazaro mbola kuno ndze
The dead man came out His hands and feet were wrapped with pieces of cloth He had a handkerchief covering his face,Ye mufwa achambola ndze na zo sandzaze na usowe were udzafungwa na kithambaa Jesu akiamba H'aya muvuguleni athuwe shuhulize
There were many Jews who came to visit Mary When they saw what Jesus did many of them believed in him,Bai Ayahudi anji mariokala madziremutsemberera Maryamu na mariokala mazhona vizho arizhohenda Jesu mamukuluhira
But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus did,Ela angine ao makwenda kwa Mafarisayo na machendaambira zho Jesu arizhokala adzahenda
Then the leading priests and Pharisees called a meeting of the high council They said What should we do This man is doing many miraculous signs,Bai alombi abomu na o Mafarisayo makiiha mukut'ano wa Baraza ra athumia na makiuzana-uzana makiamba Hundahendadze Kwani mut'u yuyu anahenda miujiza minji
If we let him continue doing these things everyone will believe in him Then the Romans will come and take away our Temple and our nation,Hukimuricha vivi andaenderera na kila mut'u andamukuluhira na o Arumi mandakudzanonga-nonga ro Hekalu rehu na ts'i yehu yosi
One of the men there was Caiaphas He was the high priest that year He said You people know nothing,Kusikira vizho mumwenga wao aifwaye Kayafa ariyekala ndiye Mulombi mubomu mwenye mwaka uwo akiamba K'amuna mumanyaro
It is better for one man to die for the people than for the whole nation to be destroyed But you dont realize this,K'amumanya kukala baha mut'u mumwenga kufwa kwa ut'u wa o at'u kuriko ts'i yosi kwanongwa
Caiaphas did not think of this himself As that years high priest he was really prophesying that Jesus would die for the Jewish people,K'anenere vivi kwa akiliye mwenye ela ni kwa kukala were nde Mulombi mubomu mwenye mwaka uwo naye were anatabiri kukala Jesu were andafwa kwa ut'u wa Ayahudi
Yes he would die for the Jewish people But he would also die for Gods other children scattered all over the world He would die to bring them all together and make them one people,Hatha vizho si kwa ao thu ela pia kwamba aakundzumanye hamwenga at'u osi a Mulungu mariotsamukana makale kit'u kimwenga
That day the Jewish leaders began planning to kill Jesus,Kwa vizho kula siku iyo o Ayahudi makikwatya kupanga kumwalaga Jesu
So Jesus stopped traveling around openly among the Jews He went away to a town called Ephraim in an area near the desert He stayed there with his followers,Bai Jesu k'atsemberere kaheri lwazu-lwazu kuko Judea ela wauka na achenda kut'u kurikoifwa Efuraimu hehi na nyika ambako watoa na anafundzie
It was almost time for the Jewish Passover festival Many people from the country went to Jerusalem before the Passover They went to do the special things to make themselves pure for the festival,Vikara sikuk'uu ya Kiyahudi ya P'asaka were i hehi na at'u anji mambuka kwenda Jerusalemu kwendadzitsusa kabila ya yo sikuk'uu yenye
The people looked for Jesus They stood in the Temple area and asked each other Is he coming to the festival What do you think,O at'u mere manamumala Jesu na makiambirana kahi za ro Hekalu makiamba Vidze munaonadze Jeri munaona andakudza kwenye sherehe vino virizho
But the leading priests and the Pharisees had given a special order about Jesus They said that anyone who knew where he was must tell them so that they could arrest him,Nao manena vivi kwa kukala alombi abomu na Mafarisayo were madzalazha amulo kukala mut'u yoyosi amanyaye ko Jesu ariko anavirya avinene makamugwire
Six days before the Passover festival Jesus went to Bethany That is where Lazarus lived the man Jesus raised from death,Siku t'andahu kabila ya sikuk'uu ya P'asaka Jesu wakwenda Beth'ania mudzini kwa ano Lazaro ariye were wamufufula kula kifwani
There they had a dinner for Jesus Martha served the food and Lazarus was one of the people eating with Jesus,Bai makimuthayarishira chakurya haho na Marith'a akikala nde muhikihiki kuno Lazaro akikala ni mumwenga wao mariokeresi mezani na Jesu
Mary brought in a pintof expensive perfume made of pure nard She poured the perfume on Jesus feet Then she wiped his feet with her hair And the sweet smell from the perfume filled the whole house,Bai Maryamu akihala rathili ya mafuha masafi ga marashi ga gali sana garigotengezwa kula kwa muhi wa munadi na akimumwagira Jesu mo maguluni na gonya akigahangusa na nyereze K'uzhona zho wo muruk'e wa go marashi ukidzala nyumba ndzima
Judas Iscariot one of Jesus followers was therethe one who would later hand Jesus over to his enemies Judas said,Ela Juda Isikariote mumwenga wa anafundzi a Jesu ariye were nde andiyemusaliti arihoona vizho akiamba
That perfume was worth a full years payIt should have been sold and the money should have been given to the poor people,Kwanoni marashi gano k'agaguzirwe dinari magana mahahu na makagerwa masikini
But Judas did not really care about the poor He said this because he was a thief He was the one who kept the moneybag for the group of followers And he often stole money from the bag,K'anenere vivi kwa kukala were ana mbazi sana na masikini ela kwa kukala were ni mwivi na were akadzifwaha na cho changizwacho mo mukobani mana were nde muiki wa wo mukoba wa p'esa
Jesus answered Dont stop her It was right for her to save this perfume for todaythe day for me to be prepared for burial,Jesu akiamba Muricheni agaike kwa kuthariziza siku yangu ya mazishi
You will always have those who are poor with youBut you will not always have me,Masikini munao siku zosini ela mimi k'amundakala nami siku zosini bule
Many of the Jews heard that Jesus was in Bethany so they went there to see him They also went there to see Lazarus the one Jesus raised from death,Kundi bomu ra Ayahudi masikira kukala Jesu a Beth'ania kwa vizho machenda kuko Nao makwenda si kwa ut'u wa Jesu h'akeye ela pia kwa kumona Lazaro ariyefufulwa ni Jesu kula kifwani
So the leading priests made plans to kill Lazarus too,Bai alombi abomu makipanga kumwalaga Lazaro naye
Because of him many Jews were leaving them and believing in Jesus That is why they wanted to kill Lazarus too,Kwani kwa ut'u wa iye Ayahudi anji were manaaricha vilongozi ao na kumukuluhira Jesu
The next day the people in Jerusalem heard that Jesus was coming there These were the crowds of people who had come to the Passover festival,Siku ya hiriye ro kundi bomu ririrokala kahi za sikuk'uu ya P'asaka rikisikira kukala Jesu anadza Jerusalemu
They took branches of palm trees and went out to meet Jesus They shouted,Bai makihala vitai zha mitende na machendamudhana kuno makipiga njerejere na kuamba
Jesus found a donkey and rode on it as the Scriptures say,Jesu wapata mwana wa ndzowe na akimupanda here Maoro gaambazho
Do not be afraid people of Zion,Musogohe h'enwi at'u a mudzi wa Sayuni
The followers of Jesus did not understand at that time what was happening But after he was raised to glory they understood that this was written about him Then they remembered that they had done these things for him,Anafundzie k'amavielewere bule wakathi uwo vivi ela Jesu arihokala adzafufulwa na kugerwa nguma makikumbukira kukala Maoro gaamba vivi dzuluze na kwamba were mamuhendera vivi
There were many people with Jesus when he raised Lazarus from death and told him to come out of the tomb Now they were telling others about what Jesus did,Ro kundi ririrokala na Jesu arihomufufula Lazaro kula kifwani rere ridzamboza ushahidhi kuhusu gago garigohendeka
Thats why so many people went out to meet himbecause they had heard about this miraculous sign he did,Bai vizho ndo virizhohenda at'u anji mamutsangire kwa kukala masikira wahenda uu muujiza
So the Pharisees said to each other Look Our plan is not working The people are all following him,Mafarisayo machambirana makiamba H'aya lolani k'ahufaulu kamare Lola urumwengu wosi unamuthuwa
There were some Greeks there too These were some of the people who went to Jerusalem to worship at the Passover festival,Kahi za aryahu mariokwendavoya Jerusalemu wakathi wa sherehe angine were ni Ayunani
They went to Philip who was from Bethsaida in Galilee They said Sir we want to meet Jesus,Bai machenda kwa Filipu mut'u wa Beth'isaida kuko Galilaya na makiamba Muzee hunamala humone Jesu
Philip went and told Andrew Then Andrew and Philip went and told Jesus,Filipu achendamwambira Anderea na osi airi machendamwambira Jesu
Jesus said to them The time has come for the Son of Man to receive his glory,Jesu akiamba Wakathi udzafika wa Mwana wa Mudamu kugerwa nguma
It is a fact that a grain of wheat must fall to the ground and die before it can grow and produce much more wheat If it never dies it will never be more than a single seed,Ninamwambira ujeri t'embe ya ngano isihogwa mutsangani ikafwa ni kutoa h'akeye ela ikifwa nikuzhala zhomu zhenye
Whoever loves the life they have now will lose it But whoever is willing to give up their life in this world will keep it They will have eternal life,Mut'u aihendzaye rohoye andayangamiza ela kila aimenaye rohoye kahi za urumwengu uu andaithizha hatha uzima wa kare na kare
Whoever serves me must follow me My servants must be with me everywhere I am My Father will give honor to anyone who serves me,Ye amalaye kunihumikira suthi anithuwe ili muhumiki wangu akale ho niriho mimi Baba andamuheshimu iye anihumikiraye
Now I am very troubled What should I say Should I say Father save me from this time of suffering No I came to this time so that I could suffer,Vikara moyo wangu unasirima vikara nineneni Vidze niambe Baba usihende thabu ii ikanigwerera Hatha vivi ndo virizhonireha kwamba niikirire thabu ii
Father do what will bring you glory,Baba rip'e nguma dzinaro Kidza sauthi kula mulunguni ikiamba Nidzarip'a nguma na nindarip'a nguma kaheri
The people standing there heard the voice They said it was thunder,Ro kundi ririrokala haho rasikira yo sauthi na rikiamba Kudzadoka kigwaragwara Angine makiamba Ni malaika adzanena naye
Jesus said That voice was for you and not for me,Jesu akiamba Sauthi ii k'ainenere kwa ut'u wa mimi ela idzanena kwa ut'u wa ninwi
Now is the time for the world to be judged Now the ruler of this world will be thrown out,Vikara uu ni wakathi wa urumwengu kuhukumiwa vikara muthawali wa urumwengu uu andapenduliwa
I will be lifted upfrom the earth When that happens I will draw all people to myself,Nami nichanulwa dzulu za ts'i nindaavuha at'u osi kwangu
Jesus said this to show how he would die,Wanena vivi kunyesa kifwache kindizhokala
The people said But our law says that the Messiah will live forever So why do you say The Son of Man must be lifted up Who is this Son of Man,Ro kundi rikidzigidzya rikiamba Sheria yehu inaamba kukala Masihi andakala moyo kare na kare Vikaladze bai unaamba Mwana wa Mudamu lazima anulwe dzulu Yuno Mwana wa Mudamu ni h'ani
Then Jesus said The lightwill be with you for only a short time more So walk while you have the light Then the darkness will not catch you People who walk in the darkness dont know where they are going,Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Wo mulangaza uchere nanwi kwa wakathi muchache thu Tsemberani kahi za mulangaza sidze mukagit'anirwa ni kiza kwa kukala mut'u atsemberaye k'amanya bule ko endako
So put your trust in the light while you still have it Then you will be children of light When Jesus finished saying these things he went away to a place where the people could not find him,Kuluhirani wo mulangaza zho ucherezho nanwi ili mukale at'u a mulangaza Bada ya Jesu kunena vivi akiahaukira na achendadzifitsa
The people saw all these miraculous signs Jesus did but they still did not believe in him,Ingahokala wahenda miujiza ii yosi mbere zao ela k'amamukuluhirire
This was to give full meaning to what Isaiah the prophet said,Bai zho arizhonena nabii Isaya vikithimira Isaya waamba
This is why the people could not believe Because Isaiah also said,Kwa chausa kiki k'amadimire kukuluhira Kwani Isaya waamba kaheri
God made the people blind,Mulungu adzagahendya matso gao gasione
Isaiah said this because he saw Jesus divine greatness So he spoke about him,Isaya waamba vivi kwa kukala waona nguma ya Jesu na akinena dzuluze
But many people believed in Jesus Even many of the Jewish leaders believed in him but they were afraid of the Pharisees so they did not say openly that they believed They were afraid they would be ordered to stay out of the synagogue,Hatha vizho anji kahi za vilongozi mamukuluhira Jesu ela k'amanenere lwazu-lwazu kwa ut'u wa Mafarisayo ili masiingwe kahi za masinagogi
They loved praise from people more than praise from God,Kwani mahendza zhomu kulikwa ni at'u kuriko kulikwa ni Mulungu
Then Jesus said loudly Everyone who believes in me is really believing in the one who sent me,Jesu akiluta mumiro akiamba Ye andiyenikuluhira k'anikuluhira mimi thu ela hatha iye ariyenihuma
Everyone who sees me is really seeing the one who sent me,Na anonaye anamona hatha iye ariyenihuma
I came into this world as a light I came so that everyone who believes in me will not stay in darkness,Nakudza urumwenguni dza here mulangaza kwamba kila anikuluhiraye asikale kizani
I did not come into the world to judge people I came to save the people in the world So I am not the one who judges those who hear my teaching and do not obey,Ye asikiraye uvoro wangu na kutsaukuluhira sindamuhukumu Sidzire kuuhukumu urumwengu ela nakudza kuwakola
But there is a judge for all those who refuse to believe in me and do not accept what I say The message I have spoken will judge them on the last day,Ye anikahalaye na k'akubali uvoro wangu andahukumiwa ni mut'u mumwenga Ro neno nidzironena rindakala muhukumuwe siku ya mwisho
That is because what I taught was not from myself The Father who sent me told me what to say and what to teach,Mana sidzinenerere mwenye ela Baba ariyenihuma adzaniamuru ninene go ambago ganavirya ninene
And I know that whatever he says to do will bring eternal life So the things I say are exactly what the Father told me to say,Nami ninamanya kukala amuriye inareha uzima wa kare na kare Kwa vizho go niambago ndo Baba adzigonambira ninene
It was almost time for the Jewish Passover festival Jesus knew that the time had come for him to leave this world and go back to the Father Jesus had always loved the people in the world who were his Now was the time he showed them his love the most,Bai kabila sikuk'uu ya P'asaka kuandza Jesu wakala anamanya kukala wakathiwe wa kuuka urumwenguni na kuuya kwa Babaye udzafika Naye waahendza aryahu mariokala a kwakwe kahi za urumwengu uu waahendza vivi hatha mwisho
Jesus and his followers were at the evening meal The devil had already persuaded Judas Iscariot to hand Jesus over to his enemies Judas was the son of Simon,Jesu na anafundzie were manarya chakurya cha dziloni K'uzhona zho Shethani were adzawadzala moyo wa Juda mwana wa Simoni Isikariote kwamba amusaliti Jesu
The Father had given Jesus power over everything Jesus knew this He also knew that he had come from God And he knew that he was going back to God,Jesu wamanya kukala Baba were adzamup'a nguvu zosi Wamanya kukala wala kwa Mulungu na anauya kwa Mulungu
So while they were eating Jesus stood up and took off his robe He got a towel and wrapped it around his waist,Bai Jesu akiuka ho mezani hakwe akivula nguwoye ya dzulu na akidzifunga kithambaa chununi
Then he poured water into a bowl and began to wash the followers feetHe dried their feet with the towel that was wrapped around his waist,Gonya achangiza madzi besenini na akiandza kugesa nyayo za o anafundzie na akizifurusha na cho kithambaa arichokala adzadzifunga chununi
He came to Simon Peter But Peter said to him Lord you should not wash my feet,Arihomufikira Simoni P'et'ero amugese nyayoze P'et'ero akikahala akiamba Vidze unanagesa nyayo uwe Bwana
Jesus answered You dont know what I am doing now But later you will understand,Jesu akiamba Vivi k'umanya ninahendadze ela undamanya badaye
Peter said No You will never wash my feet,P'et'ero akiamba Hatha k'undanagesa nyayo zangu bule Jesu akidzigidzya akimwamba Kala sindakwagesa be k'u mwanafundzi wangu
Simon Peter said Lord after you wash my feet wash my hands and my head too,Simoni P'et'ero akiamba Bwana kala ni vizho be usagese nyayo zangu thu-thu-thu ela nagesa hatha mikono na kitswa changu
Jesus said After a person has a bath his whole body is clean He needs only to wash his feet And you are clean but not all of you,Jesu akiamba Ye adziyeoga ni musafi kamare na k'ana haja ya kuoga kaheri isihokala nyayoze Ela si nyosi murio mu asafi
Jesus knew who would hand him over to his enemies That is why he said Not all of you are clean,Jesu wamanya andiyemusaliti ndo akiamba Si nyosi murio asafi
When Jesus finished washing their feet he put on his clothes and went back to the table He asked Do you understand what I did for you,Jesu arihogonya kuagesa nyayo zao wavwala valore ra ndze na akiuya hat'uhe kahi za meza na akiuza Vidze munaelewa zho nidzizhomuhendera
You call me Teacher And you call me Lord And this is right because that is what I am,Munaniha Mwalimu na Bwana na munanena jeri kwani ndo nirizho
I am your Lord and Teacher But I washed your feet So you also should wash each others feet,Bai kala mimi Bwana na Mwalimu wenu nidzamwagesa nyayo zenu ninwi nanwi munavirya mugesane nyayo zenu
I did this as an example for you So you should serve each other just as I served you,Mana nidzamwanyesa mufano ili muhende here nidzizhomuhendera
Believe me servants are not greater than their master Those who are sent to do something are not greater than the one who sent them,Ninamwambira ujeri wenye kukala mutumwa k'adima kukala mubomu kumukira Bwanawe hedu muhumwa kukala mubomu kuriko ye ariyemuhuma
If you know these things great blessings will be yours if you do them,Vikara murizho mudzamanya maut'u gaga bai mundahaswa mundihogahenda
I am not talking about all of you I know the people I have chosen But what the Scriptures say must happen The man who shared my food has turned against me,Sinena kwa ninwi nyosi Ninamanya aryahu nidzioatsagula Ela Maoro lazima gathimire gaambago Ye mut'u arerya chakurya nami wanigalukira
I am telling you this now before it happens Then when it happens you will believe that I AM,Ninamwambira kare kabila k'avidzahendeka kwamba vikihendeka mukuluhire kukala mimi ndimi iye
I assure you whoever accepts the person I send also accepts me And whoever accepts me also accepts the one who sent me,Ninamwambira ujeri mut'u amuhokeraye iye mut'u niriyemuhuma ananihokera mimi na iye anihokeraye mimi anamuhokera iye ariyenihuma
After Jesus said these things he felt very troubled He said openly Believe me when I say that one of you will hand me over to my enemies,Bada ya kunena vivi Jesu akibudzyika zhomu na akinena lwazu-lwazu akiamba Ninamwambira ujeri mumwenga wenu andanisaliti
His followers all looked at each other They did not understand who Jesus was talking about,Anafundzi makilolana na kwangalala dzulu za ni h'ani ariyekala anaambwa
One of the followers was next to Jesus and was leaning close to him This was the one Jesus loved very much,Bai yuyahu mwanafundzi ariyehendzwa zaidhi ni Jesu were akelesi hehi naye
Simon Peter made signs to this follower to ask Jesus who he was talking about,Simoni P'et'ero akimufinyira dzitso kuamba Muze kala ananena dzulu za h'ani
That follower leaned closer to Jesus and asked Lord who is it,Bai yuyahu mwanafundzi akisongera hehi na Jesu zaidhi na akiuza akiamba Ni h'ani Bwana
Jesus answered him I will dip this bread into the dish The man I give it to is the one So Jesus took a piece of bread dipped it and gave it to Judas Iscariot the son of Simon,Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Ye nindiyemup'a mukahe nindiokala nidzautsotsa mutsuzini ndeye Bai akihala kisiku cha mukahe akikitsotsesha na akimup'a Juda mwana wa Simoni Isikariote
When Judas took the bread Satan entered him Jesus said to Judas What you will dodo it quickly,Juda arihohala wo mukahe Shethani wamwangira Jesu akiamba Kihende haraka cho umalacho kuhenda
No one at the table understood why Jesus said this to Judas,Vikara k'ahana hatha mumwenga ho mezani ariyeelewa kwanoni Jesu wamwambira vivi Juda
Since Judas was the one in charge of the money some of them thought that Jesus meant for him to go and buy some things they needed for the feast Or they thought that Jesus wanted him to go give something to the poor,Juda were nde mwiki wa wo mukoba wa p'esa kwa vizho anafundzi angine makiona kukala Jesu were adzamwambira agule zho vimalikanazho kwa sherehe hedu aap'e chochosi akiya
Judas ate the bread Jesus gave him Then he immediately went out It was night,Juda akihala wo mukahe na achenda ndze kare Nako kwere ni usiku
When Judas was gone Jesus said Now is the time for the Son of Man to receive his glory And God will receive glory through him,Bai bada ya Juda kuuka Jesu akiamba Vikara Mwana wa Mudamu andap'ewa nguma Na kukirira kwakwe Mulungu andagerwa nguma
If God receives glory through him he will give glory to the Son through himself And that will happen very soon,Na kala Mulungu andagerwa nguma kukirira kwakwe bai Mulungu andamup'a nguma Mwana wa Mudamu ndanimwe na andahenda vizho haraka
Jesus said My children I will be with you only a short time more You will look for me but I tell you now what I told the Jewish leaders Where I am going you cannot come,Anangu mut'u mimi sindakala nanwi muda mure Mundanimala ela ninamwambira kare zho nirizhoambira Ayahudi kukala k'amudima kudza kuko nendako
I give you a new command Love each other You must love each other just as I loved you,Namup'a amuri mbisha Hendzanani Here nidzizhomuhendza bai hendzanani
All people will know that you are my followers if you love each other,Mukihendzana osi mandamanya kukala ninwi mu anafundzi angu jeri
Simon Peter asked Jesus Lord where are you going,Simoni P'et'ero akiuza Unendahi Bwana Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba K'udima kudza kare vivi ko nendako ela undakudza badaye
Peter asked Lord why cant I follow you now I am ready to die for you,P'et'ero akiamba Bwana kwanoni sidima kukuthuwa vino kare Ni thayari kufwa kwa ut'u wa uwe
Jesus answered Will you really give your life for me The truth is before the rooster crows you will say three times that you dont know me,Jesu akiamba Vidze u thayari jeri kufwa kwa ut'u wa mimi Nakwambira ujeri kabila jogolo k'aridzaika undanikana k'ana t'ahu
Jesus said Dont be troubled Trust in God and trust in me,Musikale na wasiwasi mioyoni mwenu Mukuluhireni Mulungu na mimi nami
There are many rooms in my Fathers house I would not tell you this if it were not true I am going there to prepare a place for you,Kuko ariko Baba kuna makalo manji kala k'akuna ningamwambira Mimi ninenda nikamuthayarishire hat'u
After I go and prepare a place for you I will come back Then I will take you with me so that you can be where I am,na nichendamuthayarishira hat'u nindakudza kaheri nimuhale ili ho nindihokala mimi nanwi mukale haho
You know the way to the place where I am going,Munamanya ngira ya kuko nendako
Thomas said Lord we dont know where you are going so how can we know the way,Ndo T'omasi akimuza akiamba Bwana k'ahumanya ko wendako hunadimadze kumanya ngira ya kufika kuko
Jesus answered I am the way the truth and the life The only way to the Father is through me,Bai Jesu akimudzigidzya akiamba Mimi ndimi ngira ndimi ujeri na ndimi uzima k'akuna adimaye kudza kwa Baba asihokirira kwangu
If you really knew me you would know my Father too But now you know the Father You have seen him,Bai kwa kukala unanimanya undamumanya ye Baba naye na kuandzira vivi unamumanya na udzamona
Philip said to him Lord show us the Father That is all we need,Filipu akimwamba Bwana fwanyese ye Baba naswi fundathosheka
Jesus answered Philip I have been with you for a long time So you should know me Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father too So why do you say Show us the Father,Jesu akiamba Nidzakala hamwenga nanwi nyosi muda wosi uu kidza k'unimanya Filipu Ye adziyenona mimi adzamona Baba Kwanoni unaamba Fanyese Baba
Dont you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me The things I have told you dont come from me The Father lives in me and he is doing his own work,Vidze k'ukuluhira Filipu kukala mimi ni ndani ya Baba na Baba a ndani yangu Go maneno ninenago k'agala kwangu Ye Baba ariye ndani yangu anahenda kazize
Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me Or believe because of the miracles I have done,Kuluhirani kukala mimi ni ndani ya Baba na Baba a ndani yangu Kala sozho kuluhirani kwa ut'u wa yo miujiza nihendayo
I can assure you that whoever believes in me will do the same things I have done And they will do even greater things than I have done because I am going to the Father,Ninamwambira ujeri ye anikuluhiraye andahenda kazi nizihendazo mimi na andahenda hatha zaidhi ya zizi kwa kukala ninenda kwa Baba
And if you ask for anything in my name I will do it for you Then the Fathers glory will be shown through the Son,Na nindahenda chochosi mundichomala kwa dzina rangu ili ishima ya Baba ioneke kukirira na ye Mwana
If you ask me for anything in my name I will do it,Mukivoya kit'u chochosi kwa dzina rangu nindakihenda
If you love me you will do what I command,Mukinihendza mundagwira malagizo gangu
I will ask the Father and he will give you another Helperto be with you forever,Nami nichenda nindamuvoya Baba amurehere Mwavizi Iye akidza andakala nanwi kare na kare
The Helper is the Spirit of truthThe people of the world cannot accept him because they dont see him or know him But you know him He lives with you and he will be in you,Iye nde Roho aung'azaye ujeri ambaye at'u a urumwengu k'amadima kumuhokera kwa kukala k'amamona na k'amamumanya Ela ninwi munamumanya kwa kukala anakala hamwenga nanwi na andakala ndani mwenu
I will not leave you all alone like orphans I will come back to you,Sindamuricha h'akiyenu dza here ana k'iya nindamudzirira
In a very short time the people in the world will not see me anymore But you will see me You will live because I live,Ndani za muda muchache urumwengu k'aundanona kaheri ela ninwi mundanona na kwa kukala nina uzima ninwi nanwi mundakala nawo
On that day you will know that I am in the Father You will know that you are in me and I am in you,Siku iyo ikifika mundamanya kukala mimi ni ndani ya Baba na kwamba ninwi mu ndani yangu na mimi ni ndani yenu
Those who really love me are the ones who not only know my commands but also obey them My Father will love such people and I will love them I will make myself known to them,Iye adzifundishaye malagizo gangu na kugagwira be nde anihendzaye jeri nami nindamuhendza na nindadzimanyisa kwakwe Na iye anihendzaye andahendzwa ni Baba
Then Judas not Judas Iscariot said Lord how will you make yourself known to us but not to the world,Kwereko na mwanafundzi ariyeifwa Juda naye ela yuyu si yuyahu Isikariote Mwanafundzi yuyu akimwamba Jesu Bwana unamala kudzimanyisa kwehu ela si kwa urumwengu
Jesus answered All who love me will obey my teaching My Father will love them My Father and I will come to them and live with them,Jesu akiamba Iye anihendzaye andagwira malagizo gangu Naye Baba andamuhendza na mimi na Baba hundamudzirira na kuhenda makalo naye siku zosi
But anyone who does not love me does not obey my teaching This teaching that you hear is not really mine It is from my Father who sent me,Iye asiyenihendza k'agwira malagizo gangu bule Uvoro mudziousikira si wangu ela ula kwa Baba ariyenihuma
I have told you all these things while I am with you,Nidzamwambira maut'u gaga gosi vivi hucherezho hosini
But the Helper will teach you everything and cause you to remember all that I told you This Helper is the Holy Spirit that the Father will send in my name,Ela iye Mwavizi iye Roho Mweri kidza ambaye Baba andamureha kwa dzina rangu andamufundisha na kumukumbukiza gosi nirigomwambira
I leave you peace It is my own peace I give you I give you peace in a different way than the world does So dont be troubled Dont be afraid,Ninamup'a dheri na dheri rangu si here riro ra urumwengu umup'azho Musikale na wasiwasi na musogohe
You heard me say to you I am leaving but I will come back to you If you loved me you would be happy that I am going back to the Father because the Father is greater than I am,Mudzanisikira nikimwambira Ninenda ela nindakudza kaheri kwenu Kalaho munanihendza mukafwahirwa kwa kukala ninenda kwa Baba kwani iye ni mubomu kuriko mimi
I have told you this now before it happens Then when it happens you will believe,Sirikizani Nidzamwambira kimbere kukala maut'u gaga gandahendeka ili gakihendeka mudime kukuluhira
I will not talk with you much longer The ruler of this world is coming He has no power over me,Vikara nina wakathi muchache sana wa kunena nanwi kwa kukala muthawali wa urumwengu uu anadza Naye k'ana wadimi dzulu zangu
But the world must know that I love the Father So I do exactly what the Father told me to do,ela nikwamba nahenda gosi arigonilagiza Baba ili urumwengu umanye kukala ninamuhendza Baba Ukani fwende
Jesus said I am the true vine and my Father is the gardener,Jesu akiamba Mimi ndimi muzabibu wa jeri na Baba ndiye muk'urima
He cuts off every branchof mine that does not produce fruitHe also trims every branch that produces fruit to prepare it to produce even more,Kila kitai ndani mwangu kisichozhala matunda iye ni kukitosa na kila kitai kizhalacho matunda ni kukitsatsulira kizidhi kuzhala zhomu
You have already been prepared to produce more fruit by the teaching I have given you,Ninwi mudzagonya kukala asafi kukirira na ro neno niriromwambira
Stay joined to me and I will stay joined to you No branch can produce fruit alone It must stay connected to the vine It is the same with you You cannot produce fruit alone You must stay joined to me,Bai kalani ndani yangu nami ndani yenu Dza here viryahu kitai kirizho k'achadima kuzhala matunda chamba kidzatoswa na ki h'akeye vizho zhenye ninwi k'amudima kuzhala matunda musihotoa ndani mwangu
I am the vine and you are the branches If you stay joined to me and I to you you will produce plenty of fruit But separated from me you wont be able to do anything,Mimi ni muzabibu na ninwi mu vitai Mut'u akitoa ndani yangu andazhala matunda manji kwani bila mimi k'amwadima kuhenda chochosi
If you dont stay joined to me you will be like a branch that has been thrown out and has dried up All the dead branches like that are gathered up thrown into the fire and burned,Mut'u asihokala ndani yangu a here kitai kifu Bai vitai vifu ni kutsolwa-tsolwa na vikatsufwa mohoni
Stay joined together with me and follow my teachings If you do this you can ask for anything you want and it will be given to you,Mukikala ndani yangu na maneno gangu gakikala ndani yenu voyani rorosi mumalaro nanwi mundap'ewa
Show that you are my followers by producing much fruit This will bring honorto my Father,Mukizhala matunda manji Baba andap'ewa nguma na kwa ut'u uu at'u mandamanya kukala mu anafundzi angu
I have loved you as the Father has loved me Now continue in my love,Here Baba arizhonihendza bai nami namuhendza ninwi dza vizho Kalani kahi za mahendzo gangu
I have obeyed my Fathers commands and he continues to love me In the same way if you obey my commands I will continue to love you,Mukigagwira malagizo gangu mundakala kahi za mahendzo gangu dza viryahu nirizhogagwira malagizo ga Baba na nikikala kahi za mahendzoge
I have told you these things so that you can have the true happiness that I have I want you to be completely happy,Nidzamwambira vivi kwamba furaha yangu ikale ndani yenu na kidza furaha yenu ikamilike
This is what I command you Love each other as I have loved you,Riri ndo lagizo rangu Hendzanani dza here zho nirizhomuhendza
The greatest love people can show is to die for their friends,K'akuna mwenye mahendzo mabomu kuriko mut'u afwaye kwa ut'u wa asenae
You are my friends if you do what I tell you to do,Nanwi mukihenda here nimulagizazho mundakala asenangu
I no longer call you servants because servants dont know what their master is doing But now I call you friends because I have told you everything that my Father told me,Vikara simwiha ahumiki kaheri ela namwiha asena kwa kukala muhumiki k'amanya aazaro Bwanawe Ela ninwi namwiha asena kwa kukala gosi nirigosikira kwa Baba namumanyisa
You did not choose me I chose you And I gave you this work to go and produce fruitfruit that will last Then the Father will give you anything you ask for in my name,Ninwi k'amunitsagulire ela mimi ndimi niriyemutsagula kwamba mukazhale matunda gandigotoa na Baba andamup'a rorosi mundiromala kwa dzina rangu
This is my command Love each other,Bai ninamulagiza kwamba muhendzane
If the world hates you remember that they hated me first,Urumwengu uu ukimumena manyani wanimena mimi chaho
If you belonged to the world the world would love you as it loves its own people But I have chosen you to be different from those in the world So you dont belong to the world and that is why the world hates you,Bai kalaho mu a urumwengu uwo urumwengu ungamuhendza kwa kukala mungere mu dza uwo Ela vikara ninwi k'amua urumwengu mana namutsagula kumbola kwa uwo urumwengu na ndosa udzamumena
Remember the lesson I told you Servants are not greater than their master If people treated me badly they will treat you badly too And if they obeyed my teaching they will obey yours too,Bai gakumbukireni go nirigomwambira kukala Mutumwa k'adima kukala mubomu kumukira bwanawe Kwa vizho ninamwambira kukala kala manitesa mimi bai mandamutesa hatha ninwi nanwi Na kala magwira mafundisho gangu bai mandagwira hatha go genu nago
They will do to you whatever they did to me because you belong to me They dont know the one who sent me,Ela mandamuhendera mai kwa ut'u wa mimi na kwa kukala k'amamumanya iye ariyenihuma
If I had not come and spoken to the people of the world they would not be guilty of sin But now I have spoken to them So they have no excuse for their sin,Kalaho mimi sidzire haha dhuniani kunena nao ngere k'amadima kupigwa ulongo kwamba ni adambi Ela vikara k'amadima kudzihehera dzulu za yo dambi yao
Whoever hates me also hates my Father,Mut'u adziyenimena mimi adzamumena hatha Baba naye
I did things among the people of the world that no one else has ever done If I had not done those things they would not be guilty of sin But they have seen what I did and still they hate me and my Father,Kala k'amayonere yo miujiza niriyohenda iriyo k'akuna mut'u mungine ariyepata kuihenda kimbere ngere k'amadima kupigwa ulongo kwamba ni adambi Ela hatha bada ya kuona yo miujiza niriyoihenda manimena mimi hamwenga na Baba
But this happened to make clear the full meaning of what is written in their law They hated me for no reason,Vivi zhakala ili ripate kuthimira neno ririroorwa kahi za Sheria yao riambaro Manimena bila chausa
I will send you the Helperfrom the Father The Helper is the Spirit of truthwho comes from the Father When he comes he will tell about me,Ela andihokudza ye Mwavizi nindiyemuhuma mimi kula kwa Baba ambaye ni ye Roho wa ujeri andamboza ushahidhi dzulu zangu mimi
And you will tell people about me too because you have been with me from the beginning,Hatha ninwi nanwi mundakala mashahidhi angu kwa kukala ninwi ndinwi mudziokala hamwenga nami hangu chaho
I have told you all this so that you wont lose your faith when you face troubles,Nidzamwambira maut'u gaga ili musiuye nyuma
People will tell you to leave their synagogues and never come back In fact the time will come when they will think that killing you would be doing service for God,Kwani mandamuthenga kula kahi za masinagogi gao na kidza zaidhi ya vivi kundakudza wakathi ambawo vindakala mut'u akikwalaga andaona here kwa kuhenda vizho anamuhumikira Mulungu
They will do this because they have not known the Father and they have not known me,Kidza mandahenda vizho kwa kukala k'amamumanya Baba na k'amanimanya hatha mimi
I have told you all this now to prepare you So when the time comes for these things to happen you will remember that I warned you,Ela nidzamwambira maut'u gaga kimbere ili wakathi wao wa kuhenda vivi ukifika mudime kukumbukira kukala namwambira kare Simwambirire maut'u gaga hangu chaho kwa kukala were ni hamwenga nanwi
Now I am going back to the one who sent me And none of you asks me Where are you going,Ela vivi ninenda kwa iye ariyenihuma kidza k'ahana hatha mumwenga wenu anuzaye Unendahi
But you are filled with sadness because I have told you all this,Ela kwa kukala dzanena vivi bai mioyo yenu idzadzalwa ni kigondzi
Let me assure you it is better for you that I go away I say this because when I go away I will send the Helper to you But if I did not go the Helper would not come,Hatha vizho ninamwambira ujeri wenye vindakala vidzo kwenu nichenda mana kala sindakwenda ye Mwavizi k'andakudza kwenu ela nichenda nindamuhuma kwenu
When the Helper comes he will show the people of the world how wrong they are about sin about being right with God and about judgment,Na andihokudza andauhenda urumwengu ung'alirwe lwazu-lwazu dzulu za dambi na ueri na hukumu
He will prove that they are guilty of sin because they dont believe in me,Andaahendya mang'alirwe o at'u a urumwengu uu kukala ni enye dambi kwa kukala k'amanikuluhira mimi
He will show them how wrong they are about how to be right with God The Helper will do this because I am going to the Father You will not see me then,Andaahendya mang'alirwe o at'u a urumwengu kukala ni muhachi kwa kukala ninenda kwa Baba nanwi k'amundanona kaheri
And he will show them how wrong their judgment is because their leaderhas already been condemned,Andaahendya mang'alirwe o at'u a urumwengu kukala Mulungu nde jaji kwa kukala wagonya kare kumuhukumu muthawali wa urumwengu uu
I have so much more to tell you but it is too much for you to accept now,Mut'u mimi nina maut'u manji zaidhi ga kunena nanwi ela gandakala manji nanwi zhomu kwa wakathi uu
But when the Spirit of truth comes he will lead you into all truth He will not speak his own words He will speak only what he hears and will tell you what will happen in the future,Ela ye Roho aung'azaye ujeri akidza andamulongoza kwenye ujeri wosi mana k'andanena kwa wadimi wa kwakwe mwenye ela andanena kila kit'u andichosikira kula kwangu na kidza andamwambira maut'u gandigokudza
The Spirit of truth will bring glory to me by telling you what he receives from me,Iye andanip'a nguma kwa kukala andahala go nindigonena na amwambire ninwi
All that the Father has is mine That is why I said that the Spirit will tell you what he receives from me,Gosi garigo ga Baba ni gangu ndosa namwambira kukala Roho andahala maneno gangu na amwambire ninwi
After a short time you wont see me Then after another short time you will see me again,Kwa muda muchache k'amundanona kaheri na kidza bada ya muda muchache mundanona kaheri
Some of the followers said to each other What does he mean when he says After a short time you wont see me Then after another short time you will see me again And what does he mean when he says Because I am going to the Father,Bai anafundzi a kwakwe angine makiuzana-uzana makiamba Ni noni vino afwambirazho kukala Kwa muda muchache k'amundanona na kidza kaheri kwa muda muchache mundanona na gonya anaamba anenda kwa Babaye
They also asked What does he mean by a short time We dont understand what he is saying,Makienderera kuuzana-uzana makiamba Mana ya kuamba Muda muchache ni noni Siswi be hatha k'ahumanya mana ya vivi ni noni
Jesus saw that the followers wanted to ask him about this So he said to them Are you asking each other what I meant when I said After a short time you wont see me Then after another short time you will see me again,Bai Jesu akimanya cho marichokala manamala kumuza akiamba Vidze vino ndizho muuzanazho enye kwa enye kukala manaye ni noni kuamba Kwa muda muchache k'amundanona na kaheri kwa muda muchache mundanona kaheri
The truth is you will cry and be sad but the world will be happy You will be sad but then your sadness will change to happiness,Ninamwambira ujeri wenye kukala kwa muda muchache udzao mundarira na kubagarikwa ni matsozi ela at'u a urumwengu mandafwahirwa Mundashononeka ela kaheri kwa muda muchache kushononeka kwenu kundagaluka furaha
When a woman gives birth to a baby she has pain because her time has come But when her baby is born she forgets the pain She forgets because she is so happy that a child has been born into the world,Wakathi wa utsungu wa mwanamuche amalaye kuzhala ukifika ye mwanamuche nikukala ana kigondzi Ela agonyaho kuzhala mwanawe ni kusahau wo utsungu Vivi ni kwa sababu ya iyo furaha ya kureha mwana dhuniani
It is the same with you Now you are sad but I will see you again and you will be happy You will have a joy that no one can take away,Ninwi vivi muna kigondzi ela mimi nindamona kaheri na mioyo yenu indadzala furaha furaha ambayo k'akuna adimaye kuyusa kwenu
In that day you will not have to ask me about anything And I assure you my Father will give you anything you ask him for in my name,Siku iyo ikidza mimi k'amundanivoya kit'u kwani ninamwambira ujeri kukala ye Baba andamup'a chochosi mundichovoya kwa dzina rangu
You have never asked for anything in this way before But ask in my name and you will receive And you will have the fullest joy possible,Ninwi hatha warero k'amudzangwe kuvoya chochosi kwa dzina rangu bai voyani nanwi mundapata ili furaha yenu ikamilike
I have told you these things using words that hide the meaning But the time will come when I will not use words like that to tell you things I will speak to you in plain words about the Father,Vivi nidzanena nanwi kwa mafumbo ela wakathi unadza ambaho nindanena nanwi lwazu-lwazu dzulu za ye Baba
Then you will be able to ask the Father for things in my name Im not saying that I will have to ask the Father for you,Siku iyo ikidza mundavoya kwa dzina rangu nami siamba kukala nindamuvoya Baba kwa ut'u wenu bule
The Father himself loves you because you have loved me And he loves you because you have believed that I came from God,Kwani Baba mwenye anamuhendza kwa kukala ninwi enye munanihendza na munakuluhira kukala nambola kwa Baba
I came from the Father into the world Now I am leaving the world and going back to the Father,Nambola kwa Baba na nikidza haha urumwenguni na vino kaheri ninauka urumwenguni na ninauya kwa Baba
Then his followers said You are already speaking plainly to us You are not using words that hide the meaning,Ndo anafundzie makiamba K'ona zho vikara k'unena naswi kimafumbo kaheri ela unanena naswi lwazu-lwazu
We can see now that you know all things You answer our questions even before we ask them This makes us believe that you came from God,Vikara hunamanya kukala unamanya kila kit'u na kwamba k'umala mut'u akuze maswali kwa ut'u uu hunakuluhira kukala wala kwa Mulungu
Jesus said So now you believe,Ndo Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba Vidze vikara munakuluhira
Listen to me A time is coming when you will be scattered each to his own home In fact that time is already here You will leave me and I will be alone But I am never really alone because the Father is with me,Bai wakathi unadza na hatha udzafika kare ambawo mundatsamukana kila mut'u kwao-kwao na muniriche h'akiyangu Ela hatha vizho si h'akiyangu bule mana Baba a hamwenga nami
I have told you these things so that you can have peace in me In this world you will have troubles But be brave I have defeated the world,Bai nidzamwambira vivi ili mukale na dheri kwa kukala kit'u kimwenga nami Kahi za urumwengu uu mundapata thabu ela dzip'eni moyo mana mimi nidzaushinda urumwengu
After Jesus said these things he looked toward heaven and prayed Father the time has come Give glory to your Son so that the Son can give glory to you,Bada ya Jesu kugonya kunena vivi walola dzulu mulunguni na akivoya Baba wakathi udzafika Bai mup'e nguma Mwanao ili iye Mwanao naye akup'e nguma
You gave the Son power over all people so that he could give eternal life to all those you have given to him,Mana wamup'a wadimi dzulu za at'u osi kwamba adime kuap'a uzima wa kare na kare osi uriomup'a
And this is eternal life that people can know you the only true God and that they can know Jesus Christ the one you sent,Vikara uzima wa kare na kare ni uu kwamba makumanye uwe Mulungu wa jeri na wa h'akeye na Jesu Masihi uriyemuhuma
I finished the work you gave me to do I brought you glory on earth,Mimi nidzakurehera nguma dhuniani kwa kuimarigiza yo kazi uriyonip'a niihende
And now Father give me glory with you Give me the glory I had with you before the world was made,Vikara Baba nip'a nguma nip'a nguma iryahu niriyokala nayo nirihokala hamwenga nawe kabila urumwengu k'audzaumbwa
You gave me some people from the world I have shown them what you are like They belonged to you and you gave them to me They have obeyed your teaching,Mut'u mimi nidzaahendya ao at'u urionip'a kula kahi za urumwengu makumanye At'u ao were ni ako nao ukinip'a nao makirigwira nenoro
Now they know that everything I have came from you,Vikara vivi manamanya kukala kila kit'u niricho nacho kila kwako
I told them the words you gave me and they accepted them They realized the fact that I came from you and believed that you sent me,kwani mimi naambira maneno urigonip'a na makigakubali Kwa vizho madzamanya kwa hakika kukala nala kwako na madzakuluhira kukala ndiwe uriyenihuma
I pray for them now I am not praying for the people in the world But I am praying for these people you gave me because they are yours,Bai ninaavoyera Siavoyera at'u a urumwengu ela naavoyera aryahu urionip'a mana ni ako
All I have is yours and all you have is mine And my glory is seen in them,Osi nirio nao ni ako na osi urio nao ni angu nami ninap'ewa nguma kwa ao
Now I am coming to you I will not stay in the world but these followers of mine are still in the world Holy Father keep them safe by the power of your namethe name you gave me Then they will be one just as you and I are one,Vikara mimi si mumu urumwenguni kaheri ninadza kwako uwe Baba uriye mueri Ela aa machere mumu urumwenguni bai arinde kwa nguvu za dzinaro riryahu dzina urironip'a ili makale kit'u kimwenga here mimi na uwe hurizho kit'u kimwenga

When Jesus finished praying he left with his followers and went across the Kidron Valley He went into a garden there his followers still with him,Bai bada ya Jesu kugonya kunena maneno gaga waahala o anafundzie na akiuka hat'u haho Machenda na makivuka det'e ra Kidironi kurikokala kuna chunga kithithe cha mizeituni na machangira mumo
Judas the one responsible for handing Jesus over knew where this place was He knew because Jesus often met there with his followers,Vikara Juda ariyekala andamusaliti Jesu were anahamanya hat'u haho mana Jesu na anafundzie makala makithunganana haho mara kwa mara
So Judas led a group of soldiers to the garden along with some guards from the leading priests and the Pharisees They were carrying torches lanterns and weapons,Bai Juda akidza haho kuno analongoza kundi ra at'u Kahi za kundi riro kwere kuna arindzi a ro Hekalu mariokala madzambola kwa o alombi abomu na Mafarisayo Angine kahi zao ao mere ni shikari a Kirumi Bai kundi riri were ridzatsukula mataa na zhenje na silaha
Jesus already knew everything that would happen to him So he went out and asked them Who are you looking for,Jesu were anagamanya kare gago gandigohendeka kwakwe Bai akiasongerera na akiuza Munamumala h'ani
They answered Jesus from Nazareth,Makimudzigidzya makiamba Hunamumala Jesu wa Nazareth'i Akiamba Ni mimi Bai Juda musaliti were a hamwenga nao o at'u
When Jesus said I am Jesus the men moved back and fell to the ground,O at'u marihosikira Jesu akiamba Ni mimi makiuya na nyuma na makigwa
He asked them again Who are you looking for,Akiuza kaheri akiamba Munamumala h'ani Makiamba Hunamumala Jesu wa Nazareth'i
Jesus said I told you that I am Jesus So if you are looking for me let these other men go free,Jesu akiamba Nidzamwambira kare kukala ni mimi Vikara kwa kukala munimalaye ni mimi aricheni aa anafundzi angu mende
This was to show the truth of what Jesus said earlier I have not lost anyone you gave me,Jesu wanena vivi kwamba Maoro gathimire kukala O urionip'a singamizire hatha mumwenga
Simon Peter had a sword which he pulled out He struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear The servants name was Malchus,Simoni P'et'ero were ana mushu Akiwamboza chowani mwakwe na akimutosa sikiro ra kurya ye muhumiki wa Mulombi mubomu mwenye Muhumiki yuyu dzinare were ni Maliko
Jesus said to Peter Put your sword back in its place I must drink from the cupthe Father has given me,Ela Jesu akimwambira P'et'ero akiamba Wudzye chowani mwakwe wo mushuwo Baba adzanip'a kikombe kiki cha dhiki vidze nisikinwe
Then the soldiers with their commander and the Jewish guards arrested Jesus They tied him,Gonya yuyahu kilongozi mubomu wa o shikari akiambira o shikarie hamwenga na o arindzi a Hekalu mamugwire Jesu Nao makimugwira makimufunga
and brought him to Annas the fatherinlaw of Caiaphas Caiaphas was the high priest that year,Gonya makimuhirika kwa Anasi Anasi were ni mutsedza wa Kayafa ariyekala ndiye Mulombi mubomu mwenye mwaka uwo
He was also the one who had told the other Jewish leaders that it would be better if one man died for all the people,Kayafa yuyu ndiye mut'u aremboza ojo kahi za mashauri ga Ayahudi kwamba vinavirya mut'u mumwenga afwe kwa ut'u wa anji
Simon Peter and another one of Jesus followers went with Jesus This follower knew the high priest So he went with Jesus into the yard of the high priests house,Bai Simoni P'et'ero hamwenga na mwanafundzi mwandziwe makimuthuwa Jesu Mwanafundzi yuyu mungine were manamanyana na ye Mulombi mubomu kwa vizho iye achangira hamwenga na Jesu ho muhalani ha ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye
But Peter waited outside near the door The follower who knew the high priest came back outside and spoke to the gatekeeper Then he brought Peter inside,Ela P'et'ero k'afikire ho muhalani waima ko ndze muviryani Ndo yuyahu mwanafundzi mungine ariyekala anamanyana na ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye arihomona P'et'ero aimire ndze wamuuyira na akidzanena na musichana ariyekala zamu ho muviryani Bai ndizho P'et'ero naye akiruhusiwa kwangira ho muhalani
The girl at the gate said to Peter Are you also one of the followers of that man,Yuyahu musichana akimulolat'o P'et'ero na akimwamba We k'umumwenga wa anafundzi a Jesu bule Ela P'et'ero akiamba Hatha si mwanafundzi wa mut'u yuyahu mino
It was cold so the servants and guards had built a fire They were standing around it warming themselves and Peter was standing with them,Bai ahumiki angine na arindzi were madzaasha makala na maimire haho kuoha wo moho kwa kukala were kuna p'eho P'et'ero naye akiima hehi nawo akioha
The high priest asked Jesus questions about his followers and what he taught them,Bai yuyahu Mulombi mubomu mwenye akimuza-muza Jesu maswali dzulu za mafundishoge na dzulu za anafundzie
Jesus answered I have always spoken openly to all people I always taught in the synagogues and in the Temple area All the Jews come together there I never said anything in secret,Jesu akimudzigidzya akimwamba Mimi nidzakala nikiafundisha at'u kila wakathi lwazu-lwazu Nafundisha kila wakathi kahi za hat'u ambaho Ayahudi ehu kwa kawaida ni kuthunganana hasa kahi za masinagogi na kahi za mihala ya ro Hekalu Sidzangwe kufundisha at'u kisiri
So why do you question me Ask the people who heard my teaching They know what I said,Kwanoni unanuza mimi Kala unamala umanye mafundisho nifundishago auze ao marionisikira Ao ndo mamanyao mafundisho gangu
When Jesus said this one of the guards standing there hit him The guard said You should not talk to the high priest like that,Jesu arihogonya kunena vivi mumwenga wa o arindzi ariyekala aimire hehi naye wamwangiza mbalahi ya usoni akimudumulira akiamba Zho ndo at'u mamudzigidzyazho Mulombi mubomu mwenye
Jesus answered If I said something wrong tell everyone here what was wrong But if what I said is right then why do you hit me,Jesu akimwamba Kala dzanena neno rii nambira ni hiro Ela kala sinenere rii bai udzanipigirani
So Annas sent Jesus to Caiaphas the high priest He was still tied,Gonya ndo Anasi akimuhirika Jesu kwa ye Kayafa Mulombi mubomu mwenye kuno adzafungwa
Simon Peter was standing at the fire keeping himself warm The other people said to Peter Arent you one of the followers of that man,Ela iye Simoni P'et'ero were achere anaoha moho Bai at'u makimuza makiamba We k'umumwenga wa anafundzi a yuya mut'u P'et'ero akikanaiza akiamba Hatha
One of the servants of the high priest was there He was a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off The servant said I think I saw you with him in the garden,Gonya mut'u mungine akinena Naye were ni muhumiki wa ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye Mut'u yuyu were ana umanyi wa hehi na yuyahu mut'u ariyetoswa sikiro ni P'et'ero Akimuza naye akiamba We sikonere hamwenga na Jesu kurya chungani
But again Peter said No I was not with him As soon as he said this a rooster crowed,Ndo P'et'ero akikanaiza kaheri na haho henye jogolo rikiika
Then the guards took Jesus from Caiaphas house to the Roman governors palace It was early in the morning The Jews there would not go inside the palace They did not want to make themselves uncleanbecause they wanted to eat the Passover meal,Kidza dzuwa ririhokala ridzaandza kwombola makimuhala Jesu kula kahi za nyumba ya Kayafa hatha ko nyumbani kwa luwali P'ilato O Ayahudi k'amangirire bule mo nyumbani kwa kugoha masidzangize nyenye sidze makakosa kurya P'asaka
So Pilate went outside to them and asked What do you say this man has done wrong,Ndo P'ilato achambola mo nyumbani akiathuwa ho marihokala akiauza akiamba Vidze ni ut'u wani hasa uwi ambawo munaamba wauhenda
They answered He is a bad man That is why we brought him to you,Ao Ayahudi makidzigidzya makiamba Kala mut'u yuyu k'ahendere uwi k'ahungamurehere kwako
Pilate said to them You take him yourselves and judge him by your own law,P'ilato akiadzigidzya akiamba Muhaleni enye mumuhukumu kuthuwirizana na sheria yenu Ela aryahu Ayahudi makikahala makiamba K'ahuna amulo ra kulagiza mut'u alagwe
This was to show the truth of what Jesus said about how he would die,Vivi zhahendeka ili neno arirokala Jesu warinena dzulu za andizhofwa ripate kuthimira
Then Pilate went back inside the palace He called for Jesus and asked him Are you the king of the Jews,Kidza P'ilato achangira kaheri mo nyumbani mwakwe Akimwiha Jesu akimuza akiamba Vidze we ndiwe muthawali wa Ayahudi
Jesus said Is that your own question or did other people tell you about me,Jesu akimudzigidzya akiamba Unauza swali riri kitswacho hedu unanena kwa kukala udzambirwa ni at'u vizho
Pilate said Im not a Jew It was your own people and their leading priests who brought you before me What have you done wrong,P'ilato akidzigidzya akiamba Unaona kukala ni Muyahudi mino Ni o alombi abomu na o at'u akwenu ndo madziokureha kwangu
Jesus said My kingdom does not belong to this world If it did my servants would fight so that I would not be handed over to the Jewish leaders No my kingdom is not an earthly one,Jesu akidzigidzya akiamba Uthawali wangu si wa urumwengu uu Kalaho uthawali wangu ni wa urumwengu uu at'u angu kwa hakika ngere madzaheha na aryahu Ayahudi ili masinigwire Ela bai uthawali wangu si wa urumwengu
Pilate said So you are a king,Kidza P'ilato akimuza akiamba Kwa vizho u muthawali uwe Jesu akiamba Uwe ndiwe uriye unaamba kukala ni muthawali Mut'u mimi nakudza urumwenguni na nikizhalwa kwamba nifundishe ujeri Kila mut'u adzekusudhia kumanya na kuthuwa ujeri andanisikira
Pilate said What is truth Then he went out to the Jewish leaders again and said to them I can find nothing against this man,P'ilato akiuza akiamba Ujeri ni noni
But it is one of your customs for me to free one prisoner to you at the time of the Passover Do you want me to free this king of the Jews,Ela ni adha renu wakathi uu wa sikuk'uu yenu ya P'asaka humuvugulire mufungwa mumwenga yoyosi mundiyeamba Vidze munahendza nimuvulire yuno muthawali wa Ayahudi
They shouted back No not him Let Barabbas go free Barabbas was a rebel,Ela o Ayahudi makipiga londzo na kuamba Si mut'u yuyu k'ahuna vata naye hat'u ha yuyu muvugule Baraba Yuyahu Baraba were ni jambazi
Then Pilate ordered that Jesus be taken away and whipped,Gonya P'ilato akilagiza Jesu apigwe vikotho
The soldiers made a crown from thorny branches and put it on his head Then they put a purple robe around him,Kidza ao shikari makitengeza kiremba cha miya na makimuvika Jesu kitswani Kidza makihala riguwo ra rangi ya zambarau makimuvika
They kept coming up to him and saying Hail to the king of the Jews And they hit him in the face,Na makiamba K'una ut'u muheshimiwa muthawali wa Ayahudi Na makimupiga makofi
Again Pilate came out and said to the Jewish leaders Look I am bringing Jesus out to you I want you to know that I find nothing I can charge him with,P'ilato achambola mo nyumbani kaheri na akiambira o Ayahudi akiamba Nindamwambozera haha ndze yuyu mut'u mumanye kukala siona kukala adzahenda kihendo kii chochosi
Then Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe Pilate said to the Jews Here is the man,Bai Jesu achambola ndze kuno adzavala kirembache cha miya na riguwo ra zambarau Gonya P'ilato akiambira o at'u H'aya thiyuno
When the leading priests and the Jewish guards saw Jesus they shouted Kill him on a cross Kill him on a cross,Bai o alombi abomu na arindzi ao marihomona Jesu mapiga k'ululu na kuamba Musulubishe Musulubishe P'ilato akiadzigidzya akiamba Muhaleni enye mumusulubishe Kwani mino simona na kosa rorosi
The Jewish leaders answered We have a law that says he must die because he said he is the Son of God,Aryahu Ayahudi makimujibu makiamba Siswi huna sheria na kulingana na sheria iyo vinavirya afwe kwa kukala wadziamba ni Mwana wa Mulungu
When Pilate heard this he was more afraid,Bai P'ilato arihosikira maneno gaga wakaza kungirwa ni woga zaidhi
So he went back inside the palace and asked Jesus Where are you from But Jesus did not answer him,Kidza achangira kaheri mo nyumbani mwakwe hamwenga na Jesu Gonya akimuza akiamba Kwenu ni hiko we Ela Jesu akinyamala zii
Pilate said You refuse to speak to me Remember I have the power to make you free or to kill you on a cross,Ndo P'ilato akimuza akiamba Mbona k'unidzigidzya Unamanya mino nina wadimi wa kukuricha huru hedu kukusulubisha
Jesus answered The only power you have over me is the power given to you by God So the one who handed me over to you is guilty of a greater sin,Jesu akimudzigidzya akiamba K'ungere na wadimi wa kuhenda kit'u chochosi kwangu kala kup'ewerwe wadimi uwo kula dzulu mulunguni Kwa vizho ye mut'u adziyenireha kwako adzahenda dambi bomu kuriko uwe
After this Pilate tried to let Jesus go free But the Jewish leaders shouted Anyone who makes himself a king is against Caesar So if you let this man go free that means you are not Caesars friend,Neno riri ra Jesu ramuhendya P'ilato alole ngira yoyosi ya kumuricha Jesu huru Ela aryahu Ayahudi makipiga londzo kudzigidzya Ukimuruhusu mut'u yuyu akale huru be hundamanya kukala k'u musena wa Kaisari Unamanya kukala mut'u akidziamba ni muthawali haha be a kinyume cha Kaisari
When Pilate heard this he brought Jesus out to the place called The Stone Pavement In Aramaic the name is,P'ilato arihosikira vizho akimwamboza Jesu ko ndze kaheri Kidza akikelesi kahi za kihiche cha hukumu kiricho were ki hat'u haifwaho Muhala wa Mawe ambaho kwa luga ya Kieburania hanaifwa Gabath'a
It was now almost noon on Preparation day of Passover week Pilate said to the Jews Here is your king,Siku ii were ni siku ya Kuthayarishira P'asaka saa here sitha vivi P'ilato akiambira o Ayahudi akiamba H'aya Muthawali wenu siye
They shouted Take him away Take him away Kill him on a cross,Ela ao makipiga k'ululu makiamba Muse Muse Musulubishe P'ilato akiauza akiamba Vidze munamala nimusulubishe muthawali wenu O alombi abomu makimudzigidzya makiamba Siswi k'ahuna muthawali mungine isihokala Kaisari
So Pilate handed Jesus over to them to be killed on a cross,Kidza P'ilato akimulazha Jesu kwao mamusulubishe
He carried his own cross to a place called The Place of the Skull In Aramaic the name of this place is Golgotha,Bai makimuhala Jesu na machenda naye kuno adzatsukula musalabawe muhaka hat'u haifwaho Ribeshe ra Kitswa hedu kwa Kieburania Gologoth'a
There they nailed Jesus to the cross They also nailed two other men to crosses They put them on each side of Jesus with him in the middle,Haho makimusulubisha hamwenga na at'u angine airi mumwenga kuku na mungine kuku na Jesu akikala a ho kahikahi yao
Pilate told them to write a sign and put it on the cross The sign said,Kabila ya vivi P'ilato were adzalagiza kukala maore kibao Kidza akilagiza kwamba cho kibao makilunganye na wo musalaba na kukiora vivi
The sign was written in Aramaic in Latin and in Greek Many of the Jews read this sign because the place where Jesus was nailed to the cross was near the city,Haryahu hat'u marihokala mamusulubisha Jesu were ni hehi na wo mudzi Ndosa Ayahudi anji makishoma cho kibao nacho chere chaorwa kahi za luga ya Kieburania na ya Kiyunani na ya Kilatini
The leading Jewish priests said to Pilate Dont write The King of the Jews But write This man said I am the King of the Jews,Kidza aryahu alombi abomu a Kiyahudi makimwamba P'ilato Usiore Muthawali wa Ayahudi ela ora kukala yuyu mut'u wadziamba Mimi ni Muthawali wa Ayahudi
Pilate answered I will not change what I have written,Ela P'ilato akiamba Vizho nidzizhondhika ni vizho
After the soldiers nailed Jesus to the cross they took his clothes and divided them into four parts Each soldier got one part They also took his tunic It was all one piece of cloth woven from top to bottom,Shikari aryahu marihogonya kumusulubisha Jesu magazha mavwaloge kahi za mafungu mane ili kila shikari apate fungu Ela k'amatharurire valore ra ndani bule Riryahu valo ra ndani rere k'arigwizanyirwe na ringine mana rere rashonwa rere mwenga
So the soldiers said to each other We should not tear this into parts Lets throw lots to see who will get it This happened to make clear the full meaning of what the Scriptures say,Ndosa shikari makiambirana Nahusiritharure hat'uhe nahuripigire k'ura hulole chamba rindahalwa ni h'ani Vivi virihokala zhathimiza garyahu Maoro gaambago
Jesus mother stood near his cross Her sister was also standing there with Mary the wife of Clopas and Mary Magdalene,Bai vizho ndizho marizhohenda o shikari Hehi na ho musalabani were haimire mameye Jesu na nduguye iye mameye na Maryamu mukaza Kilopa na Maryamu Magidalena
Jesus saw his mother He also saw the follower he loved very much standing there He said to his mother Dear woman here is your son,Kidza Jesu arihomona mameye na ye mwanafundzi ariyemuhendza aimire hehi akimwamba mameye M'ama lola yuyu vikara nde mwanao
Then he said to the follower Here is your mother So after that this follower took Jesus mother to live in his home,Gonya akimwambira yuyahu mwanafundzi akiamba Vikara yuyu nde mameyo Bai yuyahu mwanafundzi bada ya vivi akimuhala ye Maryamu mameye Jesu na achenda naye mudzini kwakwe
Later Jesus knew that everything had been done To make the Scriptures come true he said I am thirsty,Badaye Jesu kuno akimanya kukala adzagonya kaziye yosi akiamba Nina k'ihu Bai Maoro gakithimira
There was a jar full of sour wine there so the soldiers soaked a sponge in it They put the sponge on a branch of a hyssop plant and lifted it to Jesus mouth,Na haho were hana kiya kithele siki Bai makihala buwa makirivika mo sikini gonya makimugolozeza Jesu anyunye
When he tasted the wine he said It is finished Then he bowed his head and died,Bai Jesu akinyunya ro siki na akiamba Vidzagoma Gonya akizanya kitswache akitoka roho
This day was Preparation day The next day was a special Sabbath day The Jewish leaders did not want the bodies to stay on the cross on the Sabbath day So they asked Pilate to order that the legs of the men be broken And they asked that the bodies be taken down from the crosses,Vikara kwa kukala were ni siku ya kuthayarishira Sabato o Ayahudi were k'amendzi yo miri isale ho misalabani kahi za yo siku ya Sabato mana yo Sabato iyo were ni bomu Bai machendamuvoya P'ilato kukala go magulu ga o asulubiwa gabandwe
So the soldiers came and broke the legsof the two men on the crosses beside Jesus,Kwa vizho shikari machendabanda magulu ga yuyahu wa kwandza na ga yuyahu wa hiri
But when the soldiers came close to Jesus they saw that he was already dead So they did not break his legs,ela marihofika kwa Jesu makiona kukala adzagonya kufwa kwa vizho k'amabandire maguluge
But one of the soldiers stuck his spear into Jesus side Immediately blood and water came out,Ela shikari mumwenga akimudunga fumo ra lwavuni Bai vichache zhenye milatso na madzi vichambola kula kahi za ro ranga ra lwavuni
The one who saw this happen has told about it He told about it so that you also can believe The things he says are true He knows that he tells the truth,Ye muori wa maut'u gaga waona gakihendeka naye adzanena dzulu ya ut'u uu ili ninwi nanwi mukuluhire Go arigoganena ni ga ujeri naye anamanya kukala ananena ujeri
These things happened to give full meaning to the Scriptures that said None of his bones will be broken,Bai vivi zhathimiza go Maoro gaambago K'amandabanda musozawe hatha mumwenga
and People will look at the one they stabbed,Na kidza kuna Maoro mangine gaambago Mandamulola iye mariyemudunga fumo
Later a man named Joseph from Arimathea asked Pilate for the body of Jesus Joseph was a follower of Jesus but he did not tell anyone because he was afraid of the Jewish leaders Pilate said Joseph could take Jesus body so he came and took it away,Bada ya vivi mut'u mumwenga wa mudzi wa Arimath'ea aifwaye Josefu achendamuza P'ilato kala anadima kuuhala mwiri wa Jesu akauzike Yuyu Josefu were ni mwanafundzi wa Jesu wa kisiri-siri kwa kukala were anaagoha o Ayahudi Bai P'ilato akikubali Kwa vizho Josefu achendamuhala Jesu
Nicodemus went with Joseph He was the man who had come to Jesus before and talked to him at night He brought about 100 poundsof spicesa mixture of myrrh and aloes,Kidza Nikodemu ariyekala ho chaho wamwendera Jesu na usiku wakwenda na marashi manji sana garigo uzihowe were ni here rathili gana mwenga Marashi gaga were ni mutsanganyiko wa manemane na udhi
These two men took Jesus body and wrapped it in pieces of linen cloth with the spices This is how the Jews bury people,O anaalume airi mauhala wo mwiri wa Jesu na makiulinga-linga ts'andza ya kitani na go marashihere adha ra Kiyahudi ra kuthayarisha lufu lukazikwe ririzho
In the place where Jesus was killed on the cross there was a garden In the garden there was a new tomb No one had ever been buried there before,Vikara haho Jesu arihosulubiwa were hana munda na kahi za wo munda were hana mbira mbisha ambayo were k'aidzazikwa mut'u
The men put Jesus in that tomb because it was near and the Jews were preparing to start their Sabbath day,Bai kwa kukala were ni siku ya Kiyahudi ya Mathayarisho na kwa kukala were yo mbira i hehi makimwika Jesu mumo
Later Jesus appeared again to his followers by Lake GalileeThis is how it happened,Badaye Jesu waambolera anafundzie kaheri kahi za ziya ra Tiberia Nazho zhakala kivivi
Some of the followers were togetherSimon Peter Thomas called Didymus Nathanael from Cana in Galilee the two sons of Zebedee and two other followers,Simoni P'et'ero na T'omasi ambaye dzina ringine waifwa P'ats'a na Nath'anieli ariye kwao were ni K'ana ya Galilaya na ana a Zebedayo na anafundzi airi angine were ma hamwenga
Simon Peter said I am going out to fish,Ndo Simoni P'et'ero akiambira o andziye akiamba Nenda nikavuhe makumba Aryahu angine nao makiamba Hunakuthuwa Kwa vizho machangira dauni Were ni usiku ho marihokwendavuha makumba Makichesa kuvuha makumba ela k'amagwirire kit'u
Early the next morning Jesus stood on the shore But the followers did not know it was Jesus,Kurihokala kunang'ala-ng'ala Jesu waima ko ngokani ela anafundzi k'amamanyire kukala ni Jesu
Then he said to them Friends have you caught any fish,Jesu akiluta mumiro akiamba Anangu muna makumba ko Makidzigidzya Ii hatha
He said Throw your net into the water on the right side of your boat You will find some fish there So they did this They caught so many fish that they could not pull the net back into the boat,Ndo Jesu akiambira Tsuhani kimia chenu mukono wa kurya wa ro dau na mundagwira makumba kuko Ndo makitsuha cho kimia mukono wa kurya wa dau Bai makumba manji gachangira mo kimiani na gakigwirwa hatha k'amadimire kukivuha cho kimia na kuchangiza mo dauni kwa go makumba manji
When they stepped out of the boat and onto the shore they saw a fire of hot coals There were fish on the fire and some bread there too,K'uzhona zho marihofika k'anda-k'anda ya ro ziya makiona moho wa makala na makumba garokala ganakanjwa na ho k'anda were hana mikahe
Then Jesus said Bring some of the fish that you caught,Ndo Jesu akiambira Nireherani sehemu ya go makumba murigo mula kugwirani hedu
Simon Peter got into the boat and pulled the net to the shore It was full of big fish153 of them But even with that many fish the net did not tear,Bai Simoni P'et'ero akikivuha cho kimia muhaka ko k'anda-k'anda ya ziya Cho kimia were kithele mikumba mibomu-mibomu gana na mirongo mitsano na mihahu na ingahokala were ni minji namuna iyo cho kimia k'akitharukire bule
Jesus said to them Come and eat None of the followers would ask him Who are you They knew he was the Lord,Gonya Jesu akiambira Ndzoni mufungule hano Na k'ahana hatha mumwenga kahi za o anafundzi ariyethatha kumwamba We u h'ani kwani mamanya kukala iye ni Bwana
Jesus walked over to get the bread and gave it to them He also gave them the fish,Bai Jesu achenda ho mohoni akihala yo mikahe akiap'a gonya akihala makumba nago akiap'a
This was now the third time Jesus appeared to his followers after he was raised from death,Ii were ni k'ana ya hahu ya Jesu kuambolera anafundzie bada ya kufufukakwe
When they finished eating Jesus said to Simon Peter Simon son of John do you love me more than these other men love me,Marihogonya kufungula Jesu akierekeza manenoge kwa P'et'ero kuamba Simoni mwana wa Johana vidze unanihendza kuriko aa P'et'ero akiamba Ee Bwana Unamanya kukala ninakuhendza Kidza Jesu akiamba Be risa anang'ondzi angu
Again Jesus said to him Simon son of John do you love me,Kidza Jesu akimuza lwa hiri akiamba Simoni mwana wa Johana vidze unanihendza Akidzigidzya akiamba Ee Bwana unamanya kukala ninakuhendza Jesu akiamba lwa hiri Bai tsundza anang'ondzi angu
A third time Jesus said Simon son of John do you love me,Gonya Jesu akimuza lwa hahu akiamba Simoni mwana wa Johana unanihendza Bai achangirwa ni kigondzi kwa kukala adzauzwa ni Jesu lwa hahu kala anamuhendza Bai akiamba Bwana uwe unamanya kila kit'u Unamanya kukala ninakuhendza Gonya Jesu akiamba Bai risa ng'ondzi zangu
The truth is when you were young you tied your own belt and went where you wanted But when you are old you will put out your hands and someone else will tie your belt They will lead you where you dont want to go,Gonya Jesu achangeza akiamba Ninakwambira ujeri wenye urihokala u muthana were ukafunga ukanda mwenye na ukenda uhendzako Ela nakwambira kukala undihothumika undagoloza mikonoyo na uhende kufungwa ukanda ni at'u na makuhirike kut'u uriko kw'endzi kwenda
Jesus said this to show how Peter would die to give glory to God Then he said to Peter Follow me,Jesu wanena vivi kunyesa kifwa cha P'et'ero kindizhokala na kindizhoreha nguma kwa Mulungu Gonya akimwambira P'et'ero Nithuwa hedu
Peter turned and saw the follower Jesus loved very much walking behind them This was the follower who had leaned against Jesus at the supper and said Lord who is it that will hand you over,P'et'ero akigaluka na akimona yuyahu mwanafundzi ariyehendzwa ni Jesu anaathuwa Mwanafundzi yuyu ni yuyahu ariyekala hehi na Jesu marihokala manarya chakurya kabila kufwakwe na kidza nde ariyemuza Jesu akiamba Ni h'ani andiyekusaliti Bwana
When Peter saw him behind them he asked Jesus Lord what about him,P'et'ero arihomona mwanafundzi yuyahu akimwamba Jesu H'e yuno ye Bwana
Jesus answered Maybe I want him to live until I come That should not matter to you You follow me,Jesu akimudzigidzya akiamba Kala ninamala akale moyo hatha nindihouya kaheri vidze zho vinakuhusu noni Uwe h'e nithuwa
So a story spread among the followers of Jesus They were saying that this follower would not die But Jesus did not say he would not die He only said Maybe I want him to live until I come That should not matter to you,Badaye zhavuma kahi za o ndugu kukala yuyahu mwanafundzi k'andafwa bule Ela Jesu k'amwambire kukala k'andafwa ela waamba Kala ninamala akale moyo hatha nindihouya kaheri vidze zho vinakuhusu noni
That follower is the one who is telling these things He is the one who has now written them all down We know that what he says is true,Yuyu mwanafundzi ahadzwaye nde iye ariyenena dzulu ya gaga gosi garigohendeka Na kidza ndeye ariyegaora maut'u gaga na hunamanya kukala zho arizhonena ni ujeri
There are many other things that Jesus did If every one of them were written down I think the whole world would not be big enough for all the books that would be written,Bai kuna maut'u mangine manji garigonenwa ni Jesu Kala vinadimikika kukala at'u maore kila kimwenga arichokihenda Jesu naona kukala yo dhunia ndzima k'aingakalire na nafasi ya kuthosha ya kuika zho zhuwo vingazhoorwa
Dear TheophilusThe first book I wrote was about everything Jesus did and taught from the beginning,Kwa muheshimiwa Th'eofilo Kahi za kiryahu chuwo changu cha kwandza naora dzulu za go maut'u gosi arigogahenda Jesu na arigogafundisha hangu mwandzo
until the day he was carried up into heaven Before he went he talked to the apostles he had chosen With the help of the Holy Spirit he told them what they should do,muhaka arihohalwa achenda mulunguni Naye kabila k'adzangwe kuhalwa kwenda mulunguni waap'a malagizo kwa nguvu za Roho Mweri o ahumwie ariokala waatsagula
This was after his death but he showed them that he was alive proving it to them in many ways The apostles saw Jesus many times during the 40 days after he was raised from death He spoke to them about Gods kingdom,Bai bada ya kufwakwe wadzionyesa lwazu kwa at'u aa k'ana nyinji zenye kwa muda wa siku mirongo mine kunyesa kukala wafufuka jeri Naye lola waonewa ni o at'u ao na akinena nao dzulu za wo uthawali wa Mulungu
One time when Jesus was eating with them he told them not to leave Jerusalem He said Wait here until you receive what the Father promised to send Remember I told you about it before,Bai siku mwenga Jesu arihokala a hamwenga nao waalagiza akiambira vivi At'u ninwi samboleni bule mumu Jerusalemu ela kalani mumu mutharize yo zawadi ya Roho Mweri iriyolagwa ni ye Baba ambayo mwaisikira nikiihadza-hadza
John baptized people with water but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit,Kwani Johana wabat'iza at'u kwa madzi ela k'avindatoa bule ninwi mundabat'izwa kwa Roho Mweri
The apostles were all together They asked Jesus Lord is this the time for you to give the people of Israel their kingdom again,Vikara o ahumwi marihothunganana hamwenga na Jesu mamuza makiamba Vidze Bwana vino ndo undawudzya uthawali kwa Aiziraeli hedu
Jesus said to them The Father is the only one who has the authority to decide dates and times They are not for you to know,Jesu akiadzigidzya akiamba At'u ninwi si kazi yenu kumanya makathi hedu hatha siku arizozika Baba kwa wadimiwe here arizhoona mwenye
But the Holy Spirit will come on you and give you power You will be my witnesses You will tell people everywhere about mein Jerusalem in the rest of Judea in Samaria and in every part of the world,Ela bai haho Roho Mweri andihomudzirira dzulu zenu be mundahokera nguvu nanwi mundakala mashahidhi angu haha Jerusalemu na Judea yosi na Samaria na hatha kahi za urumwengu muzima
After Jesus said this he was lifted up into the sky While they were watching he went into a cloud and they could not see him,Naye arihotosa kunena gaga akinulwa kwenda dzulu kuno manalola na gonya akifinikirwa ni ingu nao k'amadimire kumona kaheri
They were staring into the sky where he had gone Suddenly two men wearing white clothes were standing beside them,Bai marihokala machere kukodola matso kulola ko dzulu mulunguni arikokala Jesu anenda lola hambola anaalume airi mariokala madzavala nguwo nyaruhe tse nao makiima hehi na o anafundzi a Jesu
They said Men from Galilee why are you standing here looking into the sky You saw Jesus carried away from you into heaven He will come back in the same way you saw him go,Bai aa at'u airi makiamba H'enwi at'u a Galilaya mbona muthii haha kulola ko dzulu mulunguni H'aya bai Jesu yuyu mwenye adziyeuswa mbere zenu na kwenda mulunguni be andauya dza vizho zhenye mudzizhomona anenda
Then the apostles went back to Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives This mountain is about a half milefrom Jerusalem,Ndo makiuya ko Jerusalemu kula ko murima uifwao Murima wa Mizeituni Na kula kuko muhaka Jerusalemu were ni here kilomita mwengavivi
When they entered the city they went to the upstairs room where they were staying These are the ones who were there Peter John James Andrew Philip Thomas Bartholomew Matthew James the son of Alphaeus Simon the Zealot and Judas the son of James,K'uzhona zho marihofika makikwera kahi za cho chumba cha gorofani ambamo ndo marimokala makikala Bai ao mariokwendangira kahi za chumba kicho were ni P'et'ero na Johana na Jakobu na Anderea na Filipu na T'omasi Bath'olomayo na Math'ayo Jakobu mwana wa Alifayo na Simoni Muhehezi na Juda mwana wa Jakobu
The apostles were all together They were constantly praying with the same purpose Some women Mary the mother of Jesus and his brothers were there with the apostles,At'u aa makala na umwenga kahi za kuvoya kwa chadi kwenda-kwenda nao were ma hamwenga na o anaache ambao mumwenga wao ni Maryamu mameye Jesu na nduguze Jesu a kilume
After a few days there was a meeting of the believers There were about 120 of them Peter stood up and said,Bai bada ya siku mbiri t'ahu P'et'ero waungarara mbere za o at'u mariomukuluhira Jesu Na ao mariokala haho were manafika gana na mirongo miri
Judas was paid money for doing this His money was used to buy him a field But he fell on his head his body broke open and all his intestines poured out,Naye Juda akigula munda na zo p'esa arizorifwa kwa wo uwiwe Bai akigwa haho na kwa kitswa akipashuka na go mahumboge gosi gakithuruka
And all the people of Jerusalem learned about this That is why they named that field Akeldama which in their language means field of blood,Kila mut'u mo Jerusalemu wausikira wo uvoro uu kwa vizho makiup'a dzina ra kikwao uryahu munda makiwiha Akelidama ambazho manaye ni Munda wa milatso
Peter said In the book of Psalms this is written about Judas,P'et'ero akienderera kunena akiamba Kwani zhaorwa kahi za chuwo cha Zaburi
They put two men before the group One was Joseph Barsabbas He was also called Justus The other man was Matthias,Bai o ahumwi makiika anaalume airi Josefu ariyeifwa Barisaba ambaye dzinare ringine were ni Jusito na Matiasi
Then they used lots to choose one of the two men The lots showed that Matthias was the one the Lord wanted So he became an apostle with the other eleven,K'uzhona zho makipiga k'ura na yo k'ura ikimugwerera Matiasi Kwa vizho Matiasi akihala hat'u ha Juda na akikala mumwenga wa o ahumwi kumi na airi
When the day of Pentecost came they were all together in one place,Bai irihofika siku ya sherehe ya Pentekote o anafundzi osi mere makundzumanyika hamwenga
Suddenly a noise came from heaven It sounded like a strong wind blowing This noise filled the whole house where they were sitting,Na lola haho henye kuchambola londzo kula mulunguni dza here luvutho lwa kikukuzi na lukidzadzala yo nyumba yosi marimokala makeresi
They saw something that looked like flames of fire The flames were separated and stood over each person there,Nao makihenda kuona vit'u vidzizhohalana na ndhimi za moho nazho zhagazhikana na kila mut'u akithulamwa ni lumwenga
They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and they began to speak different languages The Holy Spirit was giving them the power to do this,Nao osi makidzazwa Roho Mweri na makikwatya kunena luga nyingine zenye here ye Roho arizhoadimira kunena
There were some godly Jews in Jerusalem at this time They were from every country in the world,Vikara mumo Jerusalemu mwere munaishi Ayahudi mario were manamwogoha Mulungu na Ayahudi aa mere madzambola kahi za kila ts'i haha dhuniani
A large crowd came together because they heard the noise They were surprised because as the apostles were speaking everyone heard in their own language,K'uzhona bai marihosikira lo londzo lulu hakundzumanyika kundi bomu ra at'u Nao were madzamaka jeri-jeri kwani kila mut'u wasikira yo lugaye yenye inanenwa ni ao mariokala madzadzazwa Roho Mweri
They were all amazed at this They did not understand how the apostles could do this They said Look These men we hear speaking are all from Galilee,Bai kahi za ko kungalala na kumaka kwao makiamba Ano osini manenao samba ni Agalilaya
But we hear them in our own languages How is this possible We are from all these different places,viandzadze kaheri kila mumwenga wehu anaasikira mananena zo luga zehu zenye
Parthia Media Elam Mesopotamia Judea Cappadocia Pontus Asia,Mana angine ehu haha ni Aparithi Amedi na Aelamiti Angine o ni at'u makalao Mesopotamia Judea na Kapadokia P'onito na Asia
Phrygia Pamphylia Egypt the areas of Libya near the city of Cyrene Rome,H'aya angine mala Furugia na P'amufulia Misiri na k'anda za Libia hehi na K'irene na ajeni akumbola Rumi
Crete and Arabia Some of us were born Jews and others have changed their religion to worship God like Jews We are from these different countries but we can hear these men in our own languages We can all understand the great things they are saying about God,Na angine kaheri ni Ak'irete na Arabu Na kahi zehu hosi angine ni Ayahudi na angine si Ayahudi bule ela mangira dini ya Kiyahudi Ela ut'u wa kwangalaza nikukala hosini funaasikira mananena na kufwambira dzulu za maut'u mabomu garigohendwa ni Mulungu
The people were all amazed and confused They asked each other What is happening,K'uzhona zho mamaka na machangalala kidza makiuzana-uzana makiamba Ut'u uno be manaye ni noni
But others were laughing at the apostles saying they were drunk from too much wine,Angine o makiatsea makiamba H'aa at'u aa madzarea thu
Then Peter stood up with the other eleven apostles He spoke loudly so that all the people could hear He said My Jewish brothers and all of you who live in Jerusalem listen to me I will tell you something you need to know Listen carefully,Ndo P'et'ero akiungarara hamwenga na aryahu ahumwi kumi na mumwenga na akinena na o at'u kwa sauthi bomu akiamba H'enwi Ayahudi andzangu na ninwi nyosini murio munatoa Jerusalemu nisirikizani hedu nimung'azize ut'u uu
These men are not drunk as you think its only nine oclock in the morning,Kwani at'u aa si kwamba madzarea dza here muonazho kwandza vivi hatha ni saa t'ahu zenye za madzach'a
But Joel the prophet wrote about what you see happening here today This is what he wrote,Ela vivi muonazho be ni viryahu virizhonenwa ni nabii Joeli ho kapindi kukala
God says In the last days,Mulungu yunaamba kukala kahi za siku za mwisho
In those days I will pour out my Spirit,Siku zizo nindaadzaza Roho wangu ahumiki angu a kilume na a kiche
I will work wonders in the sky above,Nindahenda maut'u ga kwangalaza kuku dzulu mulunguni na ko ts'i
The sun will be changed into darkness,Dzuwa rindagwirwa rikale kiza
And everyone who trusts in the Lordwill be saved,Kila mut'u andiyemuririra Bwana Mulungu andaokoka
My fellow Israelites listen to these words Jesus from Nazareth was a very special man God clearly showed this to you He proved it by the miracles wonders and miraculous signs he did through Jesus You all saw these things so you know this is true,Bai P'et'ero akienderera kunena akiamba H'enwi Aiziraeli sirikizani hedu Ye Jesu wa Nazareth'i be were ni mut'u ariyenyeswa lwazu kwenu kukala watsagulwa ni ye Mulungu mwenye kukirira na miujiza na maut'u ga kwangalaza-ngalaza na mivano ambayo Mulungu waihenda kahi zenu kukirira kwakwe here ninwi enye mumanyazho
Jesus was handed over to you and you killed him With the help of evil men you nailed him to a cross But God knew all this would happen It was his plana plan he made long ago,Bai mut'u yuyu walazhwa mikononi mwenu nanwi kwa kuvizwa ni at'u mario ni ai mukimuhala mukimwalaga kwa kumusulubisha kahi za musalaba Mulungu were anavimanya kare vizho na kidza were wapanga vikale namuna iyo
Jesus suffered the pain of death but God made him free He raised him from death There was no way for death to hold him,Bai Mulungu akimufufula akimuvugula kula kwa utsungu wa kifwa mana were k'azhadimikika bule cho kifwa kienderere kumuhendya mufungwa
David said this about him,Kwani Daudi waamba vivi dzuluze
So my heart is happy,Kwa vizho bai moyo wangu unaererwa
because you will not leave me in the place of death,mana uwe Bwana k'undaniricha nikale kuzimu
You taught me how to live,Uwe wanimanyisa ngira za uzima
My brothers I can tell you for sure about David our great ancestor He died was buried and his tomb is still here with us today,P'et'ero akienderera kunena akiamba Ndugu zangu ngojani nimwambire hasiho woga dzulu za mukare wehu Daudi kwamba iye wafwa na akizikwa na mbiraye i haha hehu hatha haha ninenaho
He was a prophet and knew something that God had said God had promised David that someone from his own family would sit on Davids throne as king,Ela hamwenga na vizho iye were ni nabii naye wamanya kamare kukala Mulungu walaha kukala andaika mumwenga kahi za at'u a lukololwe kahi za kihi cha uthawali dza here iye Daudi arizhokala
David knew this before it happened That is why he said this about that future king,Naye Daudi kwa kukala were anamanya zho vingazhokala mbereni akinena kare dzulu za kufufuka kwa ye Masihi kukala iye k'arichirwe akale ko kuzimu hedu hatha mwiriwe wenye kuola
So Jesus is the one God raised from death We are all witnesses of this We saw him,Bai Mulungu wamufufula yuyu Jesu na hosini bai fu mashahidhi a ut'u uu
Jesus was lifted up to heaven Now he is with God at Gods right side The Father has given the Holy Spirit to him as he promised So Jesus has now poured out that Spirit This is what you see and hear,Naye wanulwa dzulu na akiikwa luhande lwa nguvu mukono wa kurya wa Mulungu na akihokera kula kwa ye Baba iye Roho Mweri ariyelagwa kukala andakudza naye Jesu adzahup'a ut'u uu muwonao na kuusikira
David was not the one who was lifted up to heaven David himself said,Kwani ye Daudi mwenye k'endere dzulu mulunguni dza here viryahu arizhokwenda Jesu ela ko waamba
until I put your enemies under your power,muhaka mahadhuio niathambaraze kamare
So all the people of Israel should know this for certain God has made Jesus to be Lord and Messiah He is the man you nailed to the cross,Kwa vizho bai Aiziraeli osi ni mamanye kamare kukala yuyu Jesu muriyemusulubisha be Mulungu wamuhendya akale Bwana kidza akale Masihi
When the people heard this they felt very very sorry They asked Peter and the other apostles Brothers what should we do,Na lola o at'u marihosikira maneno gaga masikira kusha zhomu mo mioyoni mwao hatha makimwambira P'et'ero na ahumwi andziye Vikara ndugu zehu fuhendedze be vinoo
Peter said to them Change your hearts and lives and be baptized each one of you in the name of Jesus Christ Then God will forgive your sins and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit,P'et'ero akiadzigidzya akiamba Kila mumwenga wenu ni athubu na abat'izwe kahi za dzina ra Jesu Masihi ili Mulungu amusamehe dambi zenu Nanwi mundahokera kigerwa cha Roho Mweri
This promise is for you It is also for your children and for the people who are far away It is for everyone the Lord our God calls to himself,Mana yo ahadi ii ni yenu na ahoho enu na at'u osi mario kure na at'u osini mario ye Bwana Mulungu wehu andaaiha
Peter warned them with many other words he begged them Save yourselves from the evil of the people who live now,P'et'ero waenderera kuhubiri kwa maneno mangine manji na akiaonya zhomu zhenye akiamba Dzimanyirireni na kizhazi kiki cha mahendo mai
Then those who accepted what Peter said were baptized On that day about 3000 people were added to the group of believers,Bai siku iyo o at'u mariogwira maneno ga P'et'ero na kubat'izwa were manafika alifu t'ahu nao makikala madzangeza murongo wa aryahu at'u mariomukuluhira Jesu
The believers spent their time listening to the teaching of the apostles They shared everything with each other They atetogether and prayed together,Nao at'u ao makala na chadi kahi za kuthuwa go mafundisho ga o ahumwi na makishirikiana kahi za maut'u manji na makirya mikahehamwenga na kumuvoya Mulungu hamwenga
Many wonders and miraculous signs were happening through the apostles and everyone felt great respect for God,Na lola miujiza na maut'u ga kwangalaza were ganahendwa ni o ahumwi ut'u uriwoahenda at'u osi magoshezhwe
All the believers stayed together and shared everything,Bai osi mariokuluhira mere makikala hamwenga na kidza were manashirikiana na vit'u zhao zhosi
They sold their land and the things they owned Then they divided the money and gave it to those who needed it,At'u ao makala makiguza minda yao na vit'u zhao na kugazhizhana zo p'esa marizopata here kila mut'u arizhokala anatsoweka
The believers shared a common purpose and every day they spent much of their time together in the Temple area They also ate together in their homes They were happy to share their food and ate with joyful hearts,Nao kila siku at'u aa maenderera kuthunganana hamwenga kahi za wo muhala wa ro Hekalu Zhakurya zhao were manavirya hamwenga ko madzumbani nao were manarya na raha na mioyo myaruhe
The believers praised God and were respected by all the people More and more people were being saved every day and the Lord was adding them to their group,At'u ao makala makimulika Mulungu na kuafwahiza at'u osi K'uzhona zho Bwana akienderera kurongeza ro kundi kila siku kukirira kwa ao mariokala manaokoka
One day Peter and John went to the Temple area It was three oclock in the afternoon which was the time for the daily Temple prayer service,Siku mwenga P'et'ero na Johana makala makwendani ko Hekaluni kwa mavoyo ga saa chenda za mutsana
As they were entering the Temple area a man was there who had been crippled all his life He was being carried by some friends who brought him to the Temple every day They put him by one of the gates outside the Temple It was called Beautiful Gate There he begged for money from the people going to the Temple,Wakathi uwo mwanamulume mumwenga ariyekala wazhalwa kidende were anatsukulwa Kila siku at'u were makamuhala na makadzamwika kahi za muvirya mumwenga wa ro Hekalu uifwao Muvirya Mudzo ili avoye-voye p'esa kula kwa o at'u mangirao mo Hekaluni
That day he saw Peter and John going into the Temple area He asked them for money,Mut'u yuyu arihoaona o ani P'et'ero manangira mumo Hekaluni waavoya p'esa
Peter and John looked at the crippled man and said Look at us,Vikara P'et'ero na Johana marihoona vizho makimuthema dzitso ye mut'u gonya P'et'ero akimwamba Hulolet'o hedu
He looked at them he thought they would give him some money,Iye mwanamulume akialola kuno th'amaaye ni kupata chochosi kula kwao
But Peter said I dont have any silver or gold but I do have something else I can give you By the power of Jesus Christ from Nazarethstand up and walk,Ela P'et'ero akiamba Mimi sina fedha hedu dhahabu ela nindakup'a cho niricho nacho vivi kare H'aya kahi za dzina ra Jesu Masihi wa Nazareth'i ungarara wanende
Then Peter took the mans right hand and lifted him up Immediately his feet and legs became strong,P'et'ero akimugwira wo mukonowe wa kurya na akimwaviza kuungarara na lola haho henye zo nyayoze na nguyuze zikipata nguvu
He jumped up stood on his feet and began to walk He went into the Temple area with them He was walking and jumping and praising God,Mut'u iye wahenda ngh'o na akiungarara na akikwatya kwanenda bai achangira mumo Hekaluni hamwenga nao kuno ananenda na kuthuluka-thuluka kumulika Mulungu
The man was holding on to Peter and John All the people were amazed They ran to Peter and John at Solomons Porch,Vikara yuyahu mut'u arihokala anaagwira kisena o ani P'et'ero na Johana o at'u osini mangalala na machenda malo genye muhaka haho marihokala o ani P'et'ero naho were ni hat'u henye baraza riifwaro Baraza ra Selemani
When Peter saw this he said to the people My Jewish brothers why are you surprised at this You are looking at us as if it was our power that made this man walk Do you think this was done because we are good,Bai P'et'ero kuona vizho akiambira o at'u akiamba H'enwi Aiziraeli andzangu mbona ut'u uno unamumasha Kwanoni munahulolat'o here kwamba fudzamuhendya yuyu mut'u anende kwa nguvu zehu hedu ueri wehu enye
No God did it He is the God of Abraham the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob He is the God of all our fathers He gave glory to Jesus his special servant But you handed him over to be killed Pilate decided to let him go free But you told Pilate you did not want him,K'amuona h'e iye Mulungu wa ani Burahemu Isaka na Jakobu na akare ehu angine bai adzamup'a nguma muhumikiwe Jesu ariye mwamuhala na mukimulazha kwa at'u alagwe na mukimukahala mbere za luwali P'ilato idzaho iye P'ilato were adzaona baha amuriche huru ende
Jesus was holy and good but you said you did not want him You told Pilate to give you a murdererinstead of Jesus,Mwamukahala ye mueri na muhachi na mukimwamba P'ilato amuvugulire ye mwalagi
And so you killed the one who gives life But God raised him from death We are witnesses of thiswe saw it with our own eyes,Kwa vizho mukimwalaga iye ariye nde mwandzo wa uzima ela ko Mulungu akimufufula Naswi bai fu mashahidhi a ut'u uu
This crippled man was healed because we trusted in Jesus It was Jesus power that made him well You can see this man and you know him He was made completely well because of faith in Jesus You all saw it happen,Bai kukirira kwa kuluhiro kahi za dzina ra Jesu be yuyu mut'u mumonaye na muriyemunamumanya adzahendwa apate nguvu Ut'u uu wa kuhozwa kamare kwa mut'u yuyu here muwonazho nyosi na matso be udzakala kwa dzina ra Jesu na ro kuluhiro ridzaro kukirira kwakwe
My brothers I know that what you did to Jesus was done because you did not understand what you were doing And your leaders did not understand any more than you did,Vikara ndugu zangu namanya kukala ninwi na o vilongozi enu mwamuhendera Jesu ut'u uwo kwa kutsamanya
But God said these things would happen Through the prophets he said that his Messiah would suffer and die I have told you how God made this happen,Ela bai garyahu maut'u arigogahubiri ye Mulungu ho kapindi kukirira na makanwa ga manabii a kwakwe osi kwamba ye Masihi suthi were apate thabu bai ye Mulungu wagathimiza kahi za ngira ii
So you must change your hearts and lives Come back to God and he will forgive your sins,Kwa vizho bai thubuni mumuuyire Mulungu ili afute makosa genu
Then the Lord will give you times of spiritual rest He will send you Jesus the one he chose to be the Messiah,Kusudhi gadze makathi ga nguvu za kiroho kula kwa Bwana na ili amuhume Jesu ambaye nde ye Masihi ariye wamutsagulira ninwi ho kapindi
But Jesus must stay in heaven until the time when all things will be made right again God told about this time when he spoke long ago through his holy prophets,Bai iye suthi akale ko mulunguni muhaka ufike uryahu wakathi wa maut'u gosi kuhendywa masha here Mulungu arizholaga ho kapindi kukirira na manabii a kwakwe aeri
Moses said The Lord your God will give you a prophet That prophet will come from among your own people He will be like me You must obey everything he tells you,Mana Musa waamba Ye Bwana Mulungu wenu andamwanulira nabii dza mimi kula kahi za o at'u enu enye nanwi bai suthi musikire kila kit'u andichomwambira
And anyone who refuses to obey that prophet will die separated from Gods people,Mut'u yoyosi ariye k'andamusikira nabii yuyu bai andathengwa na o at'u a Mulungu na anongwe-nongwe kamare
Samuel and all the other prophets who spoke for God after Samuel said that this time would come,Na jeri wenye Samueli na manabii angine osi mariomuthangulia na mariomuthuwiriza manena dzulu za siku zizi hurizo
And what those prophets talked about is for you their descendants You have received the agreement that God made with your fathers God said to your father Abraham Every nation on earth will be blessed through your descendants,Bai zizo ahadi za Mulungu arizozika kukirira na o manabiie be ni zenu ninwi na kidza muna muthalo kahi za cho kilagane arichochika ye Mulungu na o akare enu Iye Mulungu wamwamba Burahemu vivi Kukirira na lukolo lwa kwako at'u a makabila gosi haha urumwenguni mandahaswa
God has sent his special servant Jesus He sent him to you first He sent him to bless you by causing each of you to turn away from your evil ways,Ndosa Mulungu arihomutsagula muhumikiwe wamuhuma kwenu kwandza ili adze amuhase kwa kumugaluza kila mumwenga wenu kula kahi za uwiwe
While Peter and John were speaking to the people some Jewish leaders came up to them There were some priests the captain of the soldiers that guarded the Temple and some Sadducees,Vikara P'et'ero na Johana marihokala mananena na o at'u o alombi na ye murindzi mubomu kahi za ro Hekalu hamwenga na Masadukayo makwenda haho marihokala o airi
They were upset because of what Peter and John were teaching the people By telling people about Jesus the apostles were teaching that people will rise from death,Nao were matsukirwe jeri-jeri Ut'u uriwoatsukiza ni viryahu zha kukala ao ahumwi were manaafundisha at'u kukala Jesu wafufuka kula kifwani na kwa ut'u uwo bai ao mariofwa mandafufuka
The Jewish leaders arrested Peter and John and put them in jail It was already night so they kept them in jail until the next day,Kwa vizho makiagwira makiasindikira jela na kwa kukala were kudzatswa kare makiaricha mumo hatha kukicha
But many of the people who heard the apostles believed what they said There were now about 5000 men in the group of believers,Ela anji kahi za aryahu mariosikira go mahubiri ga kwao makuluhira na yo isabu ya anaalume ichangezeka na ikifika here at'u alifu ts'ano
The next day the Jewish rulers the older Jewish leaders and the teachers of the law met in Jerusalem,Bai kurihocha aryahu vilongozi a Kiyahudi na athumia na alimu a Sheria makala na muthunganano mo Jerusalemu
Annas the high priest Caiaphas John and Alexander were there Everyone from the high priests family was there,Kahi za ao mariokala haho muthungananoni were ni Anasi ariye were nde Mulombi mubomu mwenye na Kayafa Angine mariokala haho ni Johana Alekizanda na at'u angine mario were ao nao mana lukolo na ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye
They made Peter and John stand before all the people They asked them over and over How did you make this crippled man well What power did you use By whose authority did you do this,Bai makiahala P'et'ero na Johana makiaika ho kahikahi gonya makiauza makiamba Nwi ut'u uno mwauhenda kwa nguvu zani na kwa dzina ra h'ani
Then Peter was filled with the Holy Spirit and said to them Rulers of the people and you older leaders,Ndo P'et'ero achambola kudzigidzya kuno adzadzala Roho Mweri akiamba H'enwi vilongozi na athumia
are you questioning us today about what we did to help this crippled man Are you asking us what made him well,Vikikala vivi fudzaifwa haha fudze funenet'o dzulu za kihendo kidzo arichohenderwa ye kidende na hunauzwa chamba waholadze
We want all of you and all the people of Israel to know that this man was made well by the power of Jesus Christ from Nazareth You nailed Jesus to a cross but God raised him from death This man was crippled but he is now well He is able to stand here before you because of the power of Jesus,be ninwi na at'u osini a Iziraeli manyani vivi Mwanamulume yuyu aimire mbere zenu akikala k'ana ut'u kamare kukirira na nguvu za dzina ra Jesu Masihi wa Nazareth'i Jesu yuyu ni yuyahu muriyemusulubisha ela Mulungu akimufufula
Jesus is,Iye nde iye ariyehadzwa kahi za chuwo cha Zaburi kukala
Jesus is the only one who can save people His name is the only power in the world that has been given to save anyone We must be saved through him,Wo wokolwi be k'aupatikana kukirira kwa mut'u yoyosi mungine kwani kahi za urumwengu muzima k'akuna dzina ringine ambaro anadamu magerwa ili siswi fudime kuokoka kukirira kwa riro hasihokala dzina ra Jesu
The Jewish leaders understood that Peter and John had no special training or education But they also saw that they were not afraid to speak So the leaders were amazed They also realized that Peter and John had been with Jesus,Bai ro Baraza rosi ririhoasikira P'et'ero na Johana mananena ramanya kukala at'u ao be k'amana elimu ya thendhe hatha ni at'u thu Ut'u uriwoangalaza ni kwamba at'u ao were mananena hasiho woga ndo makikumbukira kukala makala makikala hamwenga na Jesu
They saw the crippled man standing there beside the apostles They saw that he was healed so they could say nothing against the apostles,K'uzhona zho makikosa ra kunena mana ye mut'u ariyehozwa were aimire haho na P'et'ero na Johana
The Jewish leaders told them to leave the council meeting Then the leaders talked to each other about what they should do,Kwa vizho makiambira mahauke vichache ili kuku nyuma mahende h'ee-h'ee
They said What shall we do with these men Everyone in Jerusalem knows about the miracle they did as a sign from God Its too obvious We cant say it didnt happen,Bai marihokala madzauka kuku nyuma makiuzana-uzana na kuamba H'aya at'u alume ano be fundaahendadze Kwani kila mut'u atoaye mumu Jerusalemu be anamanya kamare kukala at'u aa mahenda muujiza uriwo u kih'akeye ut'u uu h'e k'afudima kuamba k'aukalire
But we must make them afraid to talk to anyone again using that nameThen this problem will not spread among the people,Ela kuuhenda ut'u uu usikaze kutsamuka-tsamuka be suthi fuakanye masinene na mut'u yoyosi dzulu za dzina riri ra Jesu
So the Jewish leaders called Peter and John in again They told the apostles not to say anything or to teach anything in the name of Jesus,Marihogonya yo njama yao makiaiha kaheri na makiapiga marufuku masinene hedu hatha kufundisha at'u kwa kuhumira dzina ra Jesu
But Peter and John answered them What do you think is right What would God want Should we obey you or God,Kusikira vizho P'et'ero na Johana makiadzigidzya makiamba H'aya viloleni ninwi chamba virizho karakara ni hizho mbere za Mulungu ni humusikire ninwi hedu humusikire Mulungu
We cannot be quiet We must tell people about what we have seen and heard,Kwani at'u siswi k'ahudima kuricha kunena dzulu za gago furigogaona na kugasikira
Peter and John left the meeting of Jewish leaders and went to their own group They told the group everything that the leading priests and the older Jewish leaders had said to them,Bai P'et'ero na Johana marihorichizwa maauyira o andziyao na machendaakup'ulira gosi marigokala madzaambwa ni o alombi abomu na o athumia a Kiyahudi
When the believers heard this they all prayed to God with one purpose They said Master you are the one who made the sky the earth the sea and everything in the world,K'uzhona zho marihosikira vizho makiluta mimiro yao kwa umwenga kumuvoya Mulungu makiamba H'ewe Bwana uwe waumba dzulu na ts'i na ukiumba bahari na ukiumba zhosi virizho mumo
Our ancestor David was your servant With the help of the Holy Spirit he wrote these words,Uwe vizho wanena kwa kuhumira kanwa ka muhumikio Daudi ariye ni mukare wehu Nawe wahenda vizho kukirira kwa Roho Mweri ukiamba
The kings of the earth prepare themselves to fight,Athawali a dhunia madzipanga
Thats what actually happened when Herod Pontius Pilate the other nations and the people of Israel all came together against Jesus here in Jerusalem He is your holy Servant the one you made to be the Messiah,Nazho ndizho virizhokala mana Herode na P'onitio P'ilato mahenda muthunganano na o at'u mario si Ayahudi na o at'u a Iziraeli Nao mahenda vizho kahi za mudzi uu wa Jerusalemu kupanga maut'u mai dzulu za Jesu ariye ni muhumiki wa kwako mueri uriyemutsagula akale Masihi
These people who came together against Jesus made your plan happen It was done because of your power and your will,Nao mahenda gago garigo uwe kwa wadimi wa kwako na mahendzogo wagapanga kare kukala nigakale
And now Lord listen to what they are saying They are trying to make us afraid We are your servants Help us to say what you want us to say without fear,Vikara vivi Bwana vilole vizho madzizhofwagosha-gosha na uahende o ahumikio madime kunena nenoro hasiho woga wowosi
Help us to be brave by showing us your power Make sick people well Cause miraculous signs and wonders to happen by the authorityof Jesus your holy servant,Goloza mukonowo uhoze at'u na uhende maut'u ga kwangalaza na miujiza kukirira kwa dzina ra Jesu muhumikio mueri
After the believers prayed the place where they were meeting shook They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and they continued to speak Gods message without fear,Bai marihogonya kuvoya ho hat'u marihokala madzathunganana hakithukuka na osi makidzazwa Roho Mweri na makihubiri ro neno ra Mulungu hasiho woga
The whole group of believers was united in their thinking and in what they wanted None of them said that the things they had were their own Instead they shared everything,O at'u osi mariomukuluhira Jesu were mioyo yao na maazo gao ni mamwenga K'ahana mut'u yoyosi ariyeamba kukala zho vit'u arizho nazho be ni zhakwe h'akeye Hatha at'u ao makala makigazhirana zhosi marizhokala nazho
With great power the apostles were making it known to everyone that the Lord Jesus was raised from death And God blessed all the believers very much,Nao o ahumwi maenderera kuambira at'u dzulu za kufufuka kwa ye Bwana Jesu Nao mahenda vivi na nguvu nyinji jeri-jeri na Mulungu akiahasa zhomu osi
None of them could say they needed anything Everyone who owned fields or houses sold them They brought the money they got,Kahi zao be were k'ahana mut'u hatha mumwenga ariyekala anatsowa kit'u kwani ao mariokala mana minda hedu nyumba zenye mavihala makiviguza na zo p'esa marizopata machenda nazo
and gave it to the apostles Then everyone was given whatever they needed,machendaap'a o ahumwi na o ahumwi makigazhizha kila mut'u karakara na utsowiwe
One of the believers was named Joseph The apostles called him Barnabas a name that means one who encourages others He was a Levite born in Cyprus,Mufano wa mut'u ariyehenda kit'u dza kicho ni mut'u mumwenga aifwaye Josefu Josefu were ni Mulawi kula Kuporo O ahumwi were manamwiha Barinaba mana ya Barinaba ni mut'u ap'aye moyo at'u
Joseph sold a field he owned He brought the money and gave it to the apostles,Bai mut'u yuyu naye wahala hat'uhe akihaguza na akihala zo p'esa achendaap'a o ahumwi
There was a man named Ananias His wifes name was Sapphira Ananias sold some land he had,Ela kwereko mwanamulume mumwenga ariyeifwa Anania Mut'u iye naye hamwenga na muchewe ariyeifwa Safira waguza kisiku cha mundawe
but he gave only part of the money to the apostles He secretly kept some of the money for himself His wife knew this and she agreed with it,Gonya akikubaliana na muchewe kukala ziryahu p'esa marizopata mavule nusu maike kurya makalazhe nusu gonya maambe zizo ndo marizopata Bai makihenda vizho Makihala zo p'esa makizivula makiika zo zirizosala makizihirika ko kwa ahumwi
Peter said Ananias why did you let Satan fill your mind with such an idea You kept part of the money for yourself and lied about it to the Holy Spirit,Bai Anania arihokwenda na zizo p'esa kwa P'et'ero P'et'ero akimwamba Anania kwanoni udzamuricha Shethani akawadzala moyowo hatha ukamukenga Roho Mweri na kuhala zo p'esa urizopata kwa kuguza wo munda ukazivula
Before you sold the field it belonged to you right And even after you sold it you could have used the money any way you wanted How could you even think of doing such a thing You lied to God not to us,Samba kabila k'udzauguza wo munda were ni wako Na hatha urihokala udzauguza samba zo p'esa were zi mikononi mwako Kwanoni bai ukaaza kuhenda ut'u dza uno H'aya bai uwe k'umukengere mwanadamu ela udzamukenga Mulungu
About three hours later his wife came in Sapphira did not know about what had happened to her husband,Bada ya here masaa mahahu vivi poo ye muche naye hatha were k'amanya kudzakalani
Peter said to her Tell me how much money you got for your field Was it this much,Bai P'et'ero akimuza ye muche akimwamba H'aya nambira zino ndo p'esa murizopata bada ya kuguza wo munda Ye mukaza Anania akidzigidzya akiamba Ee ni zizo
Peter said to her Why did you and your husband agree to test the Spirit of the Lord Listen Do you hear those footsteps The men who buried your husband are at the door They will carry you out in the same way,P'et'ero akimwamba Mudzaandzadze nwi kumupima Roho wa Bwana Sikiza thio o at'u madziokwendamuzika mulumeo na tha uwe nawe mandakutsukula
At that moment Sapphira fell down by his feet and died The young men came in and saw that she was dead They carried her out and buried her beside her husband,Na haho henye akigwa ho mbereze na akifwa Badaye o avulana makidza mumo na marihomona adzafwa makimuhala machenda naye ko ndze machendamuzika hehi na ye mulumewe
The whole church and all the other people who heard about this were filled with fear,Bai kanisa rosi richadzala woga jeri-jeri na yoyosi mungine ariyesikira ut'u uwo wamaka sana
The apostles were given the power to do many miraculous signs and wonders among the people They were together in Solomons Porch and they all had the same purpose,O ahumwi mahenda miujiza minji na maut'u manji ga kwangalaza kahi za o at'u Na o at'u osi mariomukuluhira Jesu makala makithunganana hamwenga kahi za Baraza ra Selemani
None of the other people dared to stand with the apostles but everyone was saying wonderful things about them,K'ahana mut'u yoyosi mungine ariyethatha kudziunga nao idzaho were manalikwa sana ni o at'u
More and more people believed in the Lord and many men and women were added to the group of believers,Ela hamwenga na vizho ao mariomukuluhira ye Bwana maenderera kwangezeka ache kwa alume
So the people brought those who were sick into the streets and put them on little beds and mats They were hoping that Peters shadow might fall on them as he walked by,Bai kwa ut'u wa iyo miujiza iriyokala ikihendwa ni o ahumwi at'u anji makwenda na akongo ao vitandani na vitsekani na machendaalaza ho ngirani ili ngee magutw'e ni cho kivurivuri cha P'et'ero andihokala akukirani
People came from all the towns around Jerusalem They brought those who were sick or troubled by evil spirits All of them were healed,Na makundi ga at'u kula midzi iriyo hehi na Jerusalemu makudza na akongo ao na makihozwa Ao mario were manateswa ni p'ep'o nao marefwa na o p'ep'o osini marioapagaa machambozwa
The high priest and all his friends a group called the Sadducees became very jealous,Ndo ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye hamwenga na o andziye osi mario were ni anachama a chama cha Masadukayo machangirwa ni wivu jeri-jeri
They grabbed the apostles and put them in jail,K'uzhona zho makiagwira o ahumwi na machendaangiza jela
But during the night an angel of the Lord opened the doors of the jail The angel led the apostles outside and said,Ela usiku uwo kukidza malaika wa Bwana na akidzaivugula yo miryango ya jela na akiamboza ndze
Go and stand in the Temple area Tell the people everything about this new life,Ye malaika akiambira o ahumwi vivi Endani mukaime kahi za wo muhala wa ro Hekalu na muambire o at'u kila kit'u dzulu za maisha gaga masha
When the apostles heard this they did what they were told They went into the Temple area about sunrise and began to teach the people,Nao madzach'a maitsi genye machenda kahi za wo muhala wa ro Hekalu na makihenda here zho marizhombirwa ni ye malaika zhenye makikwatya kuafundisha o at'u
When the men went to the jail they could not find the apostles there So they went back and told the Jewish leaders about this,Ela o shikari marihofika kuko jela machendaathekeza k'amamo K'uzhona zho makiuya machendasema
They said The jail was closed and locked The guards were standing at the doors But when we opened the doors the jail was empty,Makiamba At'u siswi fudzakwendayona yo jela idzafungwa vizho na o arindzi maimire ho miryangoni ela bai fudzihovugula k'afuonere mut'u yoyosi mo ndani
The captain of the Temple guards and the leading priests heard this They were confused and wondered what it all meant,Bai ye mubomu wa o arindzi a ro Hekalu na o alombi abomu marihosikira uvoro uu mangalala kuno k'amamanya kala ut'u uwo undarehani
Then another man came and told them Listen The men you put in jail are standing in the Temple area teaching the people,K'avitoere hakidza mut'u mumwenga akiamba Lolani O at'u murioangiza jela dzana be ma kahi za wo muhala wa ro Hekalu manafundisha at'u
The captain and his men went out and brought the apostles back But the soldiers did not use force because they were afraid of the people They were afraid the people would stone them to death,Kusikira vizho ye mubomu wa arindzi a ro Hekalu achenda na o shikarie na machendaahala o ahumwi makidza nao Ut'u uu mauhenda hasiho kuhumira nguvu mana were ni aoga na o at'u p'ore makakotw'a mawe nazho
The soldiers brought the apostles in and made them stand before the council The high priest questioned them,Vikara marihofika nao makiaika mbere za ro Baraza ili mauzwe-uzwet'o ni ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye
He said We told you never again to teach using that nameBut look at what you have done You have filled Jerusalem with your teaching And you are trying to blame us for his death,K'uzhona zho ye Mulombi mubomu akiauza akiamba Nwi samba fwamupiga marufuku musifundishe at'u kahi za dzina ra mut'u yuyu H'aya lolani yo Jerusalemu yosi be mudzaidzaza go mafundisho genu Kidza munamala kuhuhendya yo milatso ya mut'u yuyahu ikale dzulu yehu
Peter and the other apostles answered We must obey God not you,Kusikira vizho P'et'ero na o ahumwi angine makiadzigidzya makiamba Vidze ni karakara fumusikize Mulungu hedu fumusikize ninwi anadamu
You killed Jesus by nailing him to a cross But God the same God our fathers had raised Jesus up from death,Iye Mulungu wa akare ehu wamufufula Jesu bada ya ninwi kumwalaga kwa kumwanganya kahi za musalaba
Jesus is the one God honored by giving him a place at his right side He made him our Leader and Savior God did this to give all the people of Israel the opportunity to change and turn to God to have their sins forgiven,Bai Mulungu akimwanula na akimwika kahi za mukonowe wa kurya akale muthawali na mwokoli ili aap'e o Aiziraeli nafasi ya kuthubu na masamehewe dambi zao
We saw all these things happen and we can say that they are true The Holy Spirit also shows that these things are true God has given this Spirit to all those who obey him,Bai at'u siswi fu mashahidhi a maut'u gaga na fu mashahidhi hamwenga na ye Roho Mweri naye ariye Mulungu wamulazha kwa aryahu mamusikirao
When the council members heard this they became very angry They began to plan a way to kill the apostles,Wee Ko kusikira vizho o athumia a Baraza makitsukirwa jeri-jeri hatha makikala manamala kualaga o ahumwi
But one member of the council a Pharisee named Gamaliel stood up He was a teacher of the law and all the people respected him He told the men to make the apostles leave the meeting for a few minutes,Ela kahi za ro Baraza ra athumia were hana mwanamulume mumwenga aifwaye Gamalieli Gamalieli were ni Farisayo kidza ni mwalimu wa Sheria ariyekala akiishimiwa ni at'u sana Bai akiungarara kahikahi za ro Baraza na akilagiza kwamba o ahumwi mambozwe ko ndze vichache
Then he said to them Men of Israel be careful of what you are planning to do to these men,Gonya akinena na ro Baraza ra athumia akiamba H'enwi at'u a Iziraeli zho mumalazho kuahenda anaalume aa be baha muviaze kaheri
Remember when Theudas appeared He said he was an important man and about 400 men joined him But he was killed and all who followed him were scattered and ran away They were not able to do anything,Mana ho nyuma-nyuma kwambola Th'euda naye akidziamba kukala ni mut'u mubomu na here at'u magana mane makimuthuwa Bai iye akilagwa na osi mariokala makimuthuwa makitsamuka-tsamuka na vikikala ndo vidzaricha be vizho
Later during the time of the census a man named Judas came from Galilee Many people joined his group but he was also killed and all his followers were scattered,Bada ya iye kuchambola Juda wa Galilaya Juda wambola uryahu wakathi marihokala at'u manathalwa iye naye akithuwiwa ni rikundi ribomu ra at'u ela naye akilagwa na osi mariokala makimuthuwa makitsamuka-tsamuka
And so now I tell you stay away from these men Leave them alone If their plan is something they thought up it will fail,Kwa vizho bai nimalazho kumwambira ni vivi at'u aa h'e aricheni na maut'u gao Ee arichizeni mende Mana kala gaga malengo gao na kazi yao ni zha kibinadamu be k'avindafururiza
But if it is from God you will not be able to stop them You might even be fighting against God himself,Ela kala ut'u uu ula kwa Mulungu be k'amundaadima bule aa anaalume Munadima mukahenda kudzona munaheha hatha na Mulungu
They called the apostles in again They beat them and told them not to speak anymore using the name of Jesus Then they let them go free,Ndo makiaiha o ahumwi mo ndani na makilagiza mapigwe vikotho gonya makiapiga marufuku kunena kahi za dzina ra Jesu na makiarichiza mende
The apostles left the council meeting They were happy because they were given the honor of suffering dishonor for Jesus,K'uzhona zho o ahumwi mauka haho kuno mana raha kwa kuonewa kukala madzafika at'u a kuaibishwa kwa ut'u wa ro Dzina ra Jesu
The apostles did not stop teaching the people They continued to tell the Good Newsthat Jesus is the Messiah They did this every day in the Temple area and in peoples homes,Bai kila siku maenderera kuafundisha o at'u na kuhubiri Uvoro Udzo dzulu za Jesu kukala nde iye Masihi
More and more people were becoming followers of Jesus But during this same time the Greekspeaking followers began to complain against the other Jewish followers They said that their widows were not getting their share of what the followers received every day,Vikara kahi za siku zizo wo murongo wa aryahu anafundzi were unangezeka Bai o Ayahudi manenao Kiyunani manung'unika dzulu za viryahu marizhokala go magungu gao ganabaguliwa ni o Ayahudi andziyao kahi za maut'u ga kila siku ga kugazha chakurya
The twelve apostles called the whole group of followers together,K'uzhona zho aryahu ahumwi kumi na airi makiakundzumanya hamwenga o anafundzi makiamba Si vidzo bule siswi huriche neno ra Mulungu na fukwatye kulola maut'u ga chakurya
So brothers and sisters choose seven of your men who have a good reputation They must be full of wisdom and the Spirit We will give them this work to do,Kwa vizho bai ndugu tsagulani anaalume afungahe kahi zenu mario manamanyikana kukala mathele Roho Mweri na mana akili At'u aa bai yo kazi iyo fundaap'a ao
Then we can use all our time to pray and to teach the word of God,sino swi futhuwe wo wa kuvoya na kuhubiri ro neno ra Mulungu
The whole group liked the idea So they chose these seven men Stephen a man with great faith and full of the Holy Spirit PhilipProchorus Nicanor Timon Parmenas and Nicolaus a man from Antioch who had become a Jew,Bai ro kundi rosi rikifwahizwa ni gago marigokala o ahumwi madzaamba kwa vizho makiatsagula aa at'u aa Sitivini ariye were ni mut'u ariye na kuluhiro bomu na adziyedzala Roho Mweri Angine were ni Filipu Purokoro Nikanori T'imoni P'arimena na Nikolao ambaye were kwao ni Anitiokia Mut'u yuyu Nikolao were wangira dini ya Kiyahudi ela gonya akimukuluhira Jesu
Then they put these men before the apostles who prayed and laid their hands on them,Bai ro kundi ra o at'u mariomukuluhira Jesu rikiahala o at'u aa na rikiaika mbere za o ahumwi Ndo o ahumwi makivoya na makiaikira mikono yao
The word of God was reaching more and more people The group of followers in Jerusalem became larger and larger Even a big group of Jewish priests believed and obeyed,Bai ro neno ra Mulungu raenderera kutsamuka kila hat'u Wo murongo wa ao anafundzi mo Jerusalemu ukingezeka malo-malo na alombi anji enye nao makikuluhira
Stephen received a great blessing God gave him power to do great wonders and miraculous signs among the people,Mulungu wamuhasa zhomu Sitivini na akimugera nguvu bai akihenda miujiza na maut'u ga kwangalaza kahi za o at'u
But some of the Jews there were from the synagogue of Free Men as it was called The group included Jews from Cyrene Alexandria Cilicia and Asia They started arguing with Stephen,Ela richa hambole at'u makwatye kumupinga At'u aa were ni ashirika a Sinagogi ra Mahuru here ririzhokala rinaifwa Sinagogi riri were rina Ayahudi a kula K'irene na Alekizandiria na hatha ashirika angine were manambola kahi za majimbo ga Kilikia na Asia Bai at'u aa makwatya kunenezana na Sitivini
But the Spirit was helping him speak with wisdom His words were so strong that these Jews could not argue with him,ela k'amamwadimire kwa kukala were ananena kwa akili naye wahenda vivi kwa nguvu za ye Roho Mweri
So they told some men to say We heard Stephen say bad things against Moses and against God,K'uzhona zho makiats'ots'era at'u fulani ili maambe vivi At'u siswi fwamusikira Sitivini ananena maneno mai dzulu za Musa na kidza ananena kufuru kwa Mulungu
By doing this these Jews upset the people the older Jewish leaders and the teachers of the law They became so angry that they came and grabbed Stephen and took him to a meeting of the high council,Kwa vizho makiavuga akili o at'u o athumia a Kiyahudi na o alimu a Sheria Bai machendamugwira ye Sitivini na makidza naye mbere za ro baraza ra athumia
The Jews brought some men into the meeting to tell lies about Stephen These men said This man is always saying things against this holy place and against the Law of Moses,Ndo haho makihamboza mashahidhi a ulongo mariomboza ushahidhi na kuamba Mut'u yuyu ananena maneno mai dzulu za Hekalu rehu rieri na dzulu za Sheria ya Musa
We heard him say that Jesus from Nazareth will destroy this place and change what Moses told us to do,Kwani fwamusikira anaamba ati yuyu Jesu wa Nazareth'i andaribanda-banda ro Hekalu na go maadha hurigop'ewa ni Musa andagagaluza
Everyone there in the council meeting was staring at Stephen They saw that his face looked like the face of an angel,Na o at'u osi mariokala makeresi haho mamuthema dzitso ye Sitivini na makiwona wo usowe u here uso wa malaika
The high priest said to Stephen Is all this true,Bai ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye akimuza Sitivini akiamba Vidze gano udzigoambwa nago ni jeri
Stephen answered My Jewish fathers and brothers listen to me Our great and glorious God appeared to Abraham our ancestor when he was in Mesopotamia This was before he lived in Haran,Sitivini akidzigidzya akiamba Ndugu zangu na ano baba nisirikizani hedu Iye Mulungu wa nguma wamwambolera mukare wehu Burahemu arihokala achere ko Mesopotamia wakathi uryahu ambawo were k'adzangwe kwendatoa ko Harani
God said to him Leave your country and your people and go to the country I will show you,Akimwamba Iriche yo ts'iyo na pia ariche o amanyio na wende kahi za yo ts'i nindiyokwanyesa
So Abraham left the country of ChaldeaHe went to live in Haran After his father died God sent him to this place where you live now,Kwa vizho akiyombola yo ts'i ya Akalidayona achendatoa ko Harani Bai bada ya kifwa cha babaye iye Mulungu wamusa Burahemu kula ts'i iyo muhaka ts'i ambayo ndo mutoayo ninwi vikara
But God did not give Abraham any of this land not even a foot of it But God promised that in the future he would give Abraham this land for himself and for his children This was before Abraham had any children,Naye Mulungu k'amup'ire Burahemu hatha ndhalago mwenga ya yo ts'i ikale yakwe Ela bai Mulungu akilagana naye kukala andamup'a yo ts'i ikale maliye na ikale mali ya kizhaziche kindichokudza bada ya iye Bai wakathi uwo Burahemu were k'ana mwana bule
This is what God said to him Your descendants will live in another country They will be strangers The people there will make them slaves and mistreat them for 400 years,Ye Mulungu wamwamba Burahemu vivi Kizhazicho uwe kindakwendatoa kahi za ts'i iriyo si yao nao mandahendywa atumwa na kuhenderwa maut'u mai kwa miaka magana mane
But I will punish the nation that made them slavesAnd God also said After those things happen your people will come out of that country Then they will worship me here in this place,Ela yo ts'i indiyoahendya atumwa be nindayangiza akili na gonya kicho kizhaziche kindambola kula kahi za ts'i iyo na madze manivoye haha
God made an agreement with Abraham the sign for this agreement was circumcision And so when Abraham had a son he circumcised him when he was eight days old His sons name was Isaac Isaac also circumcised his son Jacob And Jacob did the same for his sons who became the twelve great ancestors of our people,Gonya Mulungu akiika kutahira kukale muvano wa cho kilagane arichochika na Burahemu Bai Burahemu wamuzhala Isaka na akimwangiza lwembeni arihokala adzafisha siku nane Badaye Isaka wamuzhala Jakobu na akimutahira na Jakobu akiazhala aryahu ano ts'awe kumi na airi na ao nao akiatahira
These ancestors of ours became jealous of their brother Joseph and sold him to be a slave in Egypt But God was with him,Bai aryahu ano ts'awe angine mamuonera wivu ndugu yao Josefu hatha makimuguza akakale mutumwa ko Misiri Ela bai Mulungu wakala hamwenga naye
and saved him from all his troubles Pharaoh was the king of Egypt then He liked Joseph and respected him because of the wisdom God gave him Pharaoh gave Joseph the job of being a governor of Egypt He even let him rule over all the people in Pharaohs house,na akimwokola kahi za mashakage gosi Mulungu akimup'a ulachu ye Josefu na akimuhendya afwahize kwa Farao Muthawali wa Misiri Farao akimuhendya Josefu akale luwali kahi za ts'i ya Misiri na kahi za nyumbaye yosi
But all the land of Egypt and of Canaan became dry It became so dry that food could not grow and the people suffered very much Our people could not find anything to eat,Badaye kukigwa ndzala kahi za Misiri yosi na ts'i ya K'anani Ndzala ii yareha mashaka mabomu na o akare ehu k'amadimire kupata chakurya
But Jacob heard that there was food in Egypt So he sent our people there This was their first trip to Egypt,Bai Jakobu arihosikira kawee kukala kuna chakurya ko Misiri waahuma o babizehu charo chao cha kwandza
Then they went there a second time This time Joseph told his brothers who he was And Pharaoh learned about Josephs family,Bai marihouya charo cha hiri ye Josefu wadzimanyisa kwa o nduguze na Farao akimanya dzulu za yo nyumba ya ani Josefu
Then Joseph sent some men to tell Jacob his father to come to Egypt He also invited all his relatives a total of 75 people,Bada ya maut'u gaga Josefu wahumiza kukala babaye na wo mudzi wosi makambirwe madze Nao osini were ni at'u mirongo mifungahe na atsano
So Jacob went down to Egypt He and our other ancestors lived there until they died,Kwa vizho Jakobu achenda Misiri na kuko ndo iye na o akare ehu marikofwa
Later their bodies were moved to Shechem where they were put in a tomb It was the same tomb that Abraham had bought in Shechem from the sons of Hamor He paid them with silver,Bai iyo miri yao ikihirikwa ko Shekemu na ichendazikwa kahi za mbira iriyo were yagulwa ni Burahemu kula kwa ana a Hamori kuko
The number of our people in Egypt grew There were more and more of our people there The promise that God made to Abraham was soon to come true,Kufikira wakathi wa Mulungu kuthimiza kilaganeche na Burahemu wo murongo wa at'u ehu ko Misiri were udzangezeka jeri-jeri
Then a different king began to rule Egypt one who knew nothing about Joseph,Bai bada ya muda mure kukinuka muthawali mungine ko Misiri ariye were k'amanya rorosi dzulu za Josefu
This king tricked our people He treated them badly making them leave their children outside to die,Bai muthawali yuyu akihumira ujanja kwa at'u ehu na akiaonera o akare ehu kwa kualazimisha maatsuhe ana ao atsanga mafwe
This was the time when Moses was born He was a very beautiful child and for three months his parents took care of him at home,Bai kahi za wakathi uu Musa akizhalwa nako were ni kahoho kadzo jeri-jeri Bai warerwa kahi za nyumba ya babaye kwa miezi mihahu
When they put him outside Pharaohs daughter took him She raised him as her own son,Badaye arihokwendaikwa ko ndze wakwendatsolwa ni musichana wa Farao na akimuhendya mwanawe mwenye
The Egyptians taught Moses everything they knew He was powerful in all he said and did,Bai Musa akifundishwa ulachu wosi wa Amisiri na akikala mut'u mubomu wa kumanya kunena na kuhenda
When Moses was about 40 years old he decided to visit his own people the people of Israel,Arihofisha umuri wa miaka mirongo mine akiona baha ende akaatsemberere o Aiziraeli andziye
He saw one of them being mistreated by an Egyptian so he defended him Moses hit the Egyptian to pay him back for hurting the man He hit him so hard that it killed him,Vikara akiona mumwenga wao anahenderwa ut'u uwi ni Mumisiri k'uzhona zho achendamuhehera akimurihiza ye Mumisiri kwa kuhenda kumwalaga
Moses thought that his people would understand that God was using him to save them But they did not understand,Musa waona ao mandaelewa kukala Mulungu anamuhumira kwa ut'u wa kuathizha ao ela ko k'amaelewerwe bule
The next day Moses saw two of his own people fighting He tried to make peace between them He said Men you are brothers Why are you trying to hurt each other,H'aya siku ya hiriye Musa waambolera Aiziraeli airi mariokala manapigana Bai akijeza kuathanya Akiamba Asena samba mu ndugu nwi Mbona munamala kulumizana kaheri
The man who was hurting the other one pushed Moses away and said to him Did anyone say you could be our ruler and judge,Ela ye ariyekala anamulumiza ye mwandziwe wamusukuma Musa k'anda na akiamba Ni h'ani ariyekuhendya ukale muthawali wehu na mulamuli wehu
Will you kill me just as you killed that Egyptian yesterday,Vidze unamala kunalaga dza viryahu urizhomwalaga yuyahu Mumisiri dzana
When Moses heard him say this he left Egypt He went to live in the land of Midian where he was a stranger During the time he lived there he had two sons,Musa arihosikira maneno gaga wachimbira achenda ts'i ya Midiani Kuko wakwendatoa here mujeni na akizhala ana airi a kilume
Forty years later Moses was in the desert near Mount Sinai An angel appeared to him in the flame of a burning bush,Bai bada ya miaka mirongo mine Musa wambolerwa ni malaika wa Bwana kuko nyika hehi na Murima wa Sinai Malaika yuyu wamwambolera kwa mufano wa kitsakuzi kirichokala kinaaka moho
When Moses saw this he was amazed He went near to look closer at it He heard a voice it was the Lords,Kuona vizho Musa wangalala Bai arihosongera hehi kuvilolat'o akisikira mumiro wa Bwana
The Lord said I am the same God your ancestors hadthe God of Abraham the God of Isaac and the God of JacobMoses began to shake with fear He was afraid to look at the bush,ukiamba Mimi ni Mulungu wa akareo ni Mulungu wa Burahemu na Isaka na Jakobu K'uzhona Musa akikwatya kuvinwa ni mwiri kwa woga na k'athathire hatha vichache kukilola cho kitsakuzi
The Lord said to him Take off your sandals because the place where you are now standing is holy ground,Bai ye Bwana akimwamba Musa Hedu vula zho virahuzho mana ho hat'u uimireho be ni hat'u haeri
I have seen my people suffer much in Egypt I have heard my people crying and have come down to save them Come now Moses I am sending you back to Egypt,Go mateso ga at'u angu ko Misiri nidzagaona Nidzaasikira kiriro chao nami nidzathima niathizhe Vikara ndzo nindakuhuma ko Misiri
This Moses was the one his people said they did not want They said Did anyone say you could be our ruler and judgeBut he is the one God sent to be a ruler and savior God sent him with the help of an angel the one Moses saw in the burning bush,Sitivini akienderera kunena akiamba Musa yuyu ni yuyahu mariyemukahala na makiamba Ni h'ani ariyekuhendya muthawali wehu na mulamuli wehu Musa wahumwa ni Mulungu mwenye kukirira na ye malaika ariyemwambolera kwa mufano wa kiryahu kitsakuzi ili akale kilongozi wao na akale mwokoli wao
So Moses led the people out of Egypt He worked wonders and miraculous signs in Egypt at the Red Sea and then in the desert for 40 years,Mut'u yuyu waalongoza akiamboza ndze ya Misiri akihenda miujiza na maut'u ga kwangalaza kuko Misiri na ko Bahari ya Shamu na ko nyika akihenda miujiza kwa miaka mirongo mine
This is the same Moses who said these words to the people of Israel God will give you a prophet That prophet will come from among your own people He will be like me,Yuyu nde iye Musa ariyeambira o Aiziraeli akiamba Mulungu andamwanulira nabii dza mimi kula kahi za o at'u enu enye
This same Moses was with the gathering of Gods people in the desert He was with the angel who spoke to him at Mount Sinai and he was with our ancestors He received lifegiving words from God to give to us,Sitivini akienderera kunena akiamba Iye Musa nde ariyekala hamwenga na ro kundi ra Aiziraeli ko nyika hamwenga na o akare ehu na ye malaika ariyenena naye kahi za Murima wa Sinai Musa wahokera maneno ga uzima kula kwa Mulungu ili ahuhokeze siswi
But our ancestors did not want to obey Moses They rejected him They wanted to go back to Egypt again,Ela o akare ehu makikahala kumusikira hat'u ha vizho makimukahala na makikala manamala kuuya ko Misiri
They said to Aaron Moses led us out of the country of Egypt But we dont know what has happened to him So make some gods to go before us and lead us,Kwa vizho makimwamba Haruni Hutengezere milungu ambayo indahulongoza mo ngirani mana k'ahumanya go garigomupata yuyu Musa ariyehulongoza akifwamboza ndze ya ts'i ya Misiri
So the people made an idol that looked like a calf Then they brought sacrifices to it They were very happy with what they had made with their own hands,Bai ni kahi za wakathi uwo ndo marihodzitengezera kizuka chenye muhalano wa kidzao cha ng'ombe Makichambozera sadaka na makiika sherehe kwa ishima ya zho marizhokala madzavitengeza na yo mikono yao enye
But God turned against them and let them continue worshiping the army of false gods in the sky This is what God says in the book that contains what the prophets wrote,Bai Mulungu akialozera mongo akiaricha mavoye zo nyenyezi za mulunguni Vivi vinagwirana na vizho ambazho zhaorwa kahi za chuwo cha manabii viambazho
You carried with you the tent for worshiping Moloch,Hatha bule ninwi mwatsukula ro hema ra Moloki
The Holy Tentwas with our ancestors in the desert God told Moses how to make this tent He made it like the plan that God showed him,Sitivini akienderera kunena akiamba Kuko nyika ao akare ehu makala na ro hema rironyesa kukala Mulungu anao Hema riro were ratengezwa here Mulungu arizhokala wamulagiza Musa kukala aritengeze kulengana na wo muundo ariwokala wawona
Later Joshua led our ancestors to capture the lands of the other nations Our people went in and God made the other people go out When our people went into this new land they took with them this same tent Our people received this tent from their fathers and our people kept it until the time of David,Bai ao akare ehu marihoripata ro hema ao hamwenga na Joshua makudza naro wakathi uryahu marihokala madzaihala yo ts'i kula kwa o at'u mario si Ayahudi ambao ye Mulungu waainga mbere zao Naro hema riro rakala kahi za yo ts'i muhaka wakathi uryahu wa kuthawala Daudi
God was very pleased with David He asked God to let him build a Temple for the people of Jacob,Daudi wamufwahiza Mulungu zhomu hatha akimwamba Mulungu amuruhusu amuakire iye Mulungu wa Jakobu hat'u ha kukala
But Solomon was the one who built the Temple,Ela k'avikalire bule kwani mwanawe Selemani nde ariyemuakira nyumba Mulungu
But the Most High God does not live in houses built by human hands This is what the prophetwrites,Hamwenga na vizho iye Mulungu ariye dzulu ya zhosi be k'atoa kahi za nyumba ziakwazo ni at'u Nazho ni here zho Mulungu arizhonena kukirira kwa nabii akiamba
The Lord says Heaven is my throne,Ko mulunguni ndo kihi changu cha endzi
Remember I made all these things,Samba zhosi vizho navitengeza na mukono wangu
Then Stephen said You stubborn Jewish leaders You refuse to give your hearts to God or even listen to him You are always against what the Holy Spirit wants you to do Thats how your ancestors were and you are just like them,Sitivini akienderera kunena akiamba Aa At'u musiosikira nwi mioyo yenu ni miomu na masikiro genu k'agasikira maneno ga Mulungu Ninwi be mu here o akare enu siku zosini munamupinga Roho Mweri
They persecuted every prophet who ever lived They even killed those who long ago said that the Righteous One would come And now you have turned against that Righteous One and killed him,Vidze hana nabii yoyosi ambaye k'ateserwe ni o akare enu At'u ao maalaga hatha o at'u ambao were manena kimbere kukala kundakudza ye Muhachi Na vikara mwamusaliti na mukimukot'a
You are the people who received Gods law which he gave you through his angels But you dont obey it,At'u ninwi mwaihokera yo Sheria ambayo yathinywa kwehu ni malaika ela ko k'amuigwirire
When those in the council meeting heard this they became very angry They were so mad they were grinding their teeth at him,O athumia a Baraza kusikira vizho thu makitsukirwa zhomu hatha makikwatya kwafuna meno
But Stephen was full of the Holy Spirit He looked up into heaven and saw the glory of God And he saw Jesus standing at Gods right side,Ela Sitivini walola ko dzulu mulunguni kuno athele Roho Mweri na akiona mulangaza wa Mulungu na akimona Jesu aimire mukono wa kurya wa Mulungu luhande lwa nguvu
Stephen said Look I see heaven open And I see the Son of Man standing at Gods right side,Akiamba Lola ko mulunguni ninakona kudzagunuka na ye Mwana wa Mudamu aimire kahi za mukono wa kurya wa Mulungu
Everyone there started shouting loudly covering their ears with their hands Together they all ran at Stephen,Kusikira vizho makigandiza masikiro gao na makimugulukira kuno manapiga k'ululu kwa umwenga
They took him out of the city and began throwing stones at him The men who told lies against Stephen gave their coats to a young man named Saul,Bai makimuburutha muhaka ko ndze ya wo mudzi wa Jerusalemu na makikwatya kumukot'a mawe Wakathi uwo o mariomushithaki mahala maamba gao na makimup'a muvulana mumwenga aifwaye Sauli agatsundze
As they were throwing the stones at him Stephen was praying He said Lord Jesus receive my spirit,Marihokala makumukot'ani mawe Sitivini wavoya akiamba Bwana Jesu hokera roho rangu
He fell on his knees and shouted Lord dont blame them for this sin These were his last words before he died,Gonya akipiga mavindi na akinena na mumiro mubomu akiamba Bwana dambi ii usiithale kwao Arihogonya kunena vizho akifwa
They were scattered everywhere and in every place they went they told people the Good News,Vikara ao mariokala matsamuka kila hat'u mahubiri ro neno kosini marikokwenda
Philipwent to the city of Samaria and told people about the Messiah,Filipu watharamuka achenda kahi za mudzi mumwenga ko Samaria na achendaahubiri at'u kuko dzulu za ye Masihi
The people there heard Philip and saw the miraculous signs he was doing They all listened carefully to what he said,Bai go makundi ga at'u garihomusikira Filipu na garihoona go mahendo ga miujiza arigogahenda be makwatya kugahegera masikiro t'ot'ot'o gago arigokala ananena
Many of these people had evil spirits inside them but Philip made the evil spirits leave them The spirits made a lot of noise as they came out There were also many weak and crippled people there Philip made these people well too,Lola p'ep'o maambola at'u anji kuno manapiga k'ululu na at'u anji a kuholoza na vidende mahozwa
What a happy day this was for that city,Kwa vizho kahi za mudzi uwo wa Samaria be at'u makala mana raha sana
Now there was a man named Simon who lived in that city Before Philip came there Simon had been doing magic and amazing all the people of Samaria He bragged and called himself a great man,Vikara kwereko muganga mumwenga kahi za mudzi uryahu aifwaye Simoni Simoni wakala kaziye ni kutengeza uganga kahi za mudzi uwo naye waamasha at'u osini a Samaria Simoni were anadzionya na kudziamba kukala ni mut'u mubomu
All the peoplethe least important and the most importantbelieved what he said They said This man has the power of God that is called the Great Power,At'u osini abomu kwa athithe makala makimusikiza sana na kuamba Mut'u yuyu nde iryahu nguvu ya Mulungu iifwayo Nguvu Bomu
Simon amazed the people with his magic for so long that the people became his followers,Nao mathuwa go gakwe kwa kukala iye were adzaamasha muda mure
But Philip told the people the Good News about Gods kingdom and the power of Jesus Christ Men and women believed Philip and were baptized,Ela bai at'u a Samaria marihomusikira Filipu anahubiri wo Uvoro Udzo dzulu za uthawali wa Mulungu na dzulu za Jesu Masihi makuluhira na makibat'izwa Nao mabat'izwa osi ache kwa alume
Simon himself also believed and after he was baptized he stayed close to Philip When he saw the miraculous signs and powerful things Philip did he was amazed,Ye Simoni naye akikuluhira na akibat'izwa Naye wakala akimuthuwa-thuwa Filipu kila hat'u arihokwenda Simoni wamashwa ni yo miujiza na maut'u ga kwangalaza arigogaona ganahendwa ni Filipu
The apostles in Jerusalem heard that the people of Samaria had accepted the word of God So they sent Peter and John to the people in Samaria,Bai aryahu ahumwi mariokala ko Jerusalemu marihosikira kukala o Asamaria mahokera neno ra Mulungu mamuhuma P'et'ero na Johana mende kuko
When Peter and John arrived they prayed for the Samaritan believers to receive the Holy Spirit,Bai marihofika kuko maavoyera ao at'u ili mamuhokere ye Roho Mweri
These people had been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus but the Holy Spirit had not yet come down on any of them This is why Peter and John prayed,Mana iye Roho Mweri were k'adzangwe bule kumudzirira mut'u yoyosi kahi zao Ao makala mabat'izwa kwa dzina ra Bwana Jesu thu h'akeye
When the two apostles laid their hands on the people they received the Holy Spirit,Ndo P'et'ero na Johana makiaikira mikono yao na makimuhokera ye Roho Mweri
Simon saw that the Spirit was given to people when the apostles laid their hands on them So he offered the apostles money,K'uzhona zho Simoni arihoona ye Roho Mweri adzalazhwa kwa kuhenda kuikirwa mikono ni o ahumwi waambozera p'esa na akiamba
He said Give me this power so that when I lay my hands on someone they will receive the Holy Spirit,K'amuniguziza be wo wadimi ili nami nikale mut'u yoyosi nindiyemuikira mikono yangu anahokera Roho Mweri
Peter said to Simon You and your money should both be destroyed because you thought you could buy Gods gift with money,P'et'ero akimudzigidzya akiamba Uwe na yo p'esayo fwa Mana unaona unadima ukagula kigerwa cha Mulungu na p'esa t'i
You cannot share with us in this work Your heart is not right before God,Uwe be k'una fungu rorosi hedu muthalo wowosi kahi za ii kazi yehu kwa kukala wo moyowo be k'aukarakara mbere za Mulungu
Change your heart Turn away from these evil thoughts and pray to the Lord Maybe he will forgive you,Bai thubu kwa ut'u wa uwio umuvoye ye Bwana ili akusamehe kwa kuaza ut'u dza vizho uwo mo moyoni mwako
I see that you are full of bitter jealousy and cannot stop yourself from doing wrong,Kwani zho nikonazho be nakona udzadzalwa ni dzitso na udzafungwa ni dambi
Simon answered Both of you pray to the Lord for me so that what you have said will not happen to me,Simoni akidzigidzya akiamba Nivoyerani Mulungu bai ili nikatsapatwa ni rorosi kahi za garyahu udzigonena
Then the two apostles told the people what they had seen Jesus do They told them the message of the Lord Then they went back to Jerusalem On the way they went through many Samaritan towns and told people the Good News,Bai P'et'ero na Johana marihogonya kuaonya o at'u na kuhubiri neno ra Bwana mauya ko Jerusalemu Nao mo ngirani mahubiri wo Uvoro Udzo kahi za vidzidzi vinji zha Samaria
An angel of the Lord spoke to Philip The angel said Get ready and go south on the road that leads down to Gaza from Jerusalemthe road that goes through the desert,Bai malaika wa Bwana akimwamba Filipu Uka na wende luhande lwa kwa mwaka muhaka iryahu ngira ambayo kala ula Jerusalemu be unatharamuka muhaka Gaza Ngira ii k'aikirirwa kaheri
So Philip got ready and went On the road he saw a man from Ethiopia He was a eunuch and an important official in the service of Candace the queen of the Ethiopians He was responsible for taking care of all her money This man had gone to Jerusalem to worship,Kwa vizho Filipu akikwatya kwenda Bai lola mumo ngirani akimona mut'u mumwenga kula Ithopia Mut'u yuyu were k'akola na kidza were ni mut'u mubomu ariyekala nde mutsundzi wa mali zosi za K'andake ambaye were nde muthawali muche wa Ithopia Mut'u yuyu wakala adzakwenda Jerusalemu kwendavoya Mulungu
Now he was on his way home He was sitting in his chariot reading from the book of Isaiah the prophet,Wakathi uu yuyu mut'u were anadziuja kwakwe mudzini kuno adzakelesi dzulu za gari ra kuvufwa ni farasi na anashoma chuwo cha nabii Isaya
The Spirit said to Philip Go to that chariot and stay near it,K'uzhona zho ye Roho Mweri akimwamba Filipu Enda hatha urigwire riryahu gari hedu
So he went toward the chariot and he heard the man reading from Isaiah the prophet Philip asked him Do you understand what you are reading,Ndo Filipu akikot'a malo hatha akirigwira ro gari arihofika akimusikira ye mut'u anashoma chuwo cha nabii Isaya Bai akimuza akiamba Vidze zho ushomazho vinakueleya kisha
The man answered How can I understand I need someone to explain it to me Then he invited Philip to climb in and sit with him,Ye mut'u akidzigidzya akiamba Vindanieleadze nisihopata mut'u wa kunieleza Kwa vizho akimwamba Filipu apande na akelesi naye
The part of the Scriptures that he was reading was thisHe was like a sheep being led to the butcher He was like a lamb that makes no sound as its wool is being cut off He said nothing,Haryahu hat'u arihokala anashoma ni haha haambaho vivi
He was shamed and all his rights were taken away His life on earth has ended So there will be no story about his descendants,Kahi za kuaibishwakwe iye were ni mujeri
The official said to Philip Please tell me who is the prophet talking about Is he talking about himself or about someone else,Bai ye mut'u akimuza Filipu akiamba Nambira bai yuno nabii ananena dzulu za h'ani vidze ananena gaga dzuluze mwenye hedu dzulu za mut'u mungine
Philip began to speak He started with this same Scripture and told the man the Good News about Jesus,Ndo Filipu akiandza na cho kifungu kicho na akimwambira ye mut'u wo Uvoro Udzo dzulu za Jesu
While they were traveling down the road they came to some water The official said Look here is water What is stopping me from being baptized,Vikara marihokala manaenderera na charo chao mo ngirani mafika hat'u ambaho were hana madzi bai ye mut'u akiamba Lola Siga madzi H'aya kwanoni usinibat'ize
Then the official ordered the chariot to stop Both Philip and the official went down into the water and Philip baptized him,Bai akilagiza ro gari riimishwe Gonya osi airi makitharamuka mo madzini na Filipu akimubat'iza
When they came up out of the water the Spirit of the Lord took Philip away the official never saw him again The official continued on his way home He was very happy,Badaye marihombuka kula mo madzini haho henye ye Roho wa Bwana wamuhala Filipu muhaka Azoto Bai yuyahu Muithopia k'amonere Filipu kaheri ela waenderera na charoche na raha
But Philip appeared in a city called Azotus He was going to the city of Caesarea He told people the Good News in all the towns on the way from Azotus to Caesarea,Vikara Filipu akihenda kudzona a Azoto naye kuko wakwenda kuno na kuno kuhubiri wo Uvoro Udzo kahi za midzi yosi muhaka akifika Kaisaria
In Jerusalem Saul was still trying to scare the followers of the Lord even saying he would kill them He went to the high priest,Bai kahi za wakathi uwo Sauli were achere anaenderera na uthiririwe wa kuagosha na kuamba andaalaga o anafundzi a Bwana Mut'u iye wakwenda kwa ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye
and asked him to write letters to the synagogues in the city of Damascus Saul wanted the high priest to give him the authority to find people in Damascus who were followers of the Way If he found any believers there men or women he would arrest them and bring them back to Jerusalem,na achendamwamba amup'e baruwa za kwenderera kahi za go masinagogi ga Damesiki Naye lengore were ni akiona mut'u yoyosi kuko ariye anathuwa iryahu Ngiraya Bwana ni muche ni mulume amugwire naadze naye Jerusalemu
So Saul went to Damascus When he came near the city a very bright light from heaven suddenly shined around him,Vikara kahi za cho charoche akifika hehi na mudzi wa Damesiki Bai haho henye akihenda kuona m'e mulangaza kula mulunguni na ukimupiga kosi-kosi
He fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to him Saul Saul Why are you persecuting me,Naye akigwa ho ts'i kidza akisikira sauthi ikimwamba Sauli Sauli Mbona unanitesa
Saul said Who are you Lord The voice answered I am Jesus the one you are persecuting,Sauli akiuza akiamba Ndiwe h'ani kwani we Bwana Yo sauthi ikidzigidzya ikiamba Ndimi Jesu yuyahu umutesaye
Get up now and go into the city Someone there will tell you what you must do,Vikara vivi ungarara na wangire kahi za wo mudzi nawe kuko undaambirwa viryahu ambazho suthi uvihende
The men traveling with Saul just stood there unable to speak They heard the voice but they saw no one,Aryahu at'u mariokala ma charoni na Sauli maungarara haho kuno makanwa ga ngh'aa Mahenda kusikira yo Sauthi thu ela k'amaonere mut'u yoyosi
Saul got up from the ground and opened his eyes but he could not see So the men with him held his hand and led him into Damascus,Bai Sauli akiungarara ela arihojeza kuvugula matso na kulola k'adimire kuona kit'u Kwa vizho o at'u makihenda kumugwira mukono na makimulongoza kwangira Damesiki
For three days Saul could not see he did not eat or drink,Naye wabaki vizho k'aona kwa siku t'ahu k'arya na k'anwa
There was a follower of Jesus in Damascus named Ananias In a vision the Lord said to him Ananias Ananias answered Here I am Lord,Vikara ko Damesiki kwere kuna mwanafundzi mumwenga aifwaye Anania Bai Bwana akinena naye kahi za maono akimwamba Anania Anania akihika akiamba H'ee thimi Bwana
The Lord said to him Get up and go to the street called Straight Street Find the house of Judasand ask for a man named Saul from the city of Tarsus He is there now praying,Ye Bwana akimwamba Uka wende kahi za ngira iryahu iifwayo Kugoloka na ukamale nyumba ya Juda Ukifika kahi za nyumba iyo muuzize mut'u aifwaye Sauli wa kula T'ariso kwani lola be akuvoyani vivi
He has seen a vision in which a man named Ananias came and laid his hands on him so that he could see again,Iye Sauli kahi za maono adzamona mut'u aifwaye Anania adzire na akamwikira mukono ili aone kaheri
But Ananias answered Lord many people have told me about this man They told me about the many bad things he did to your holy people in Jerusalem,K'uzhona zho Anania akidzigidzya akiamba Bwana mut'u mimi nidzasikira manji sana dzulu za mut'u yuyu viryahu arizhoahendera navisi o at'u a kwako ko Jerusalemu
Now he has come here to Damascus The leading priests have given him the power to arrest all people who trust in you,Naye haha be adzire kukirira na wadimi ariougerwa ni o alombi abomu ili aagwire osi aryahu makuvoyao uwe
But the Lord Jesus said to Ananias Go I have chosen Saul for an important work I want him to tell other nations their rulers and the people of Israel about me,Ela ye Bwana akimwamba Anania Enda kwa kukala iye nidzamutsagula akale muhumiki wangu ili ahirike dzina rangu mbere za at'u mario si Ayahudi na mbere za o athawali ao na mbere za o at'u a Iziraeli
I will show him all that he must suffer for me,Mana mimi mwenye nindamwanyesa viryahu ambazho vindamubidhi ateseke kwa ut'u wa dzina rangu
So Ananias left and went to the house of Judas He laid his hands on Saul and said Saul my brother the Lord Jesus sent me He is the one you saw on the road when you came here He sent me so that you can see again and also be filled with the Holy Spirit,Kwa vizho Anania achenda Bai wakwenda achendangira iryahu nyumba arimokala Sauli na akimuikira mikono akiamba Sauli ndugu yangu Ye Bwana yuyahu Jesu ariyekwambolera mo ngirani urihokala unadza kuku adzanihuma ili upate kuona kaheri na udzalwe ni Roho Mweri
Immediately something that looked like fish scales fell off Sauls eyes He was able to see Then he got up and was baptized,Bai haho henye hakigwa vit'u here magaugau kula mo matsoni mwa Sauli naye akipata kuona kaheri akiungarara na akibat'izwa
After he ate he began to feel strong again,Badaye akirya chakurya na akipata nguvu
Soon he began to go to the synagogues and tell people about Jesus He told the people Jesus is the Son of God,na mara mwenga akikwatya kuhubiri kahi za masinagogi dzulu za Jesu kukala iye ni Mwana wa Mulungu
All the people who heard Saul were amazed They said This is the same man who was in Jerusalem trying to destroy the people who trust in Jesus And thats why he has come hereto arrest the followers of Jesus and take them back to the leading priests,Na lola osi mariomusikira mangalala makiuza makiamba Yuno se yuyahu ariyekala akiathabisha o at'u mariokala manamukuluhira Jesu ko Jerusalemu Na samba wakudza haha ili aagwire na aahirike ko kwa alombi abomu
But Saul became more and more powerful in proving that Jesus is the Messiah His proofs were so strong that the Jews who lived in Damascus could not argue with him,Ela kuhubiri kwa Sauli kukikaza kukala na nguvu na akianyesa o Ayahudi matoao mo Damesiki kukala anamanya t'ot'ot'o kukala ye Jesu be nde iye Masihi Vivi zhaahenda o Ayahudi makose ra kunena
After many days some Jews made plans to kill Saul,Bai bada ya siku nyinji o Ayahudi angine mapanga njama ya kumukot'a ye Sauli
They were watching the city gates day and night They wanted to kill Saul but he learned about their plan,Ela iye mwenye akidza akiimanya yo njama yao O Ayahudi makala manamufungurira Sauli kahi za yo mivirya ya wo mudzi usiku na mutsana ili mamwalage
One night some followers that Saul had taught helped him leave the city They put him in a basket and lowered it down through a hole in the city wall,Ela o anafundzie bai makimuhala na usiku makimwangiza rikahuni na makimutharamusha ko ndze kukirira na mwanya wa wo ukuta uriwozunguka wo mudzi
Then Saul went to Jerusalem He tried to join the group of followers but they were all afraid of him They did not believe that he was really a follower of Jesus,Bai Sauli arihofika ko Jerusalemu wajeza kudziunga na o anafundzi kuko ela o anafundzi k'amakuluhirire kukala iye wamukuluhira Jesu jeri Hat'u ha vizho ao makala ni aoga naye
But Barnabas accepted Saul and took him to the apostles He told them how Saul had seen the Lord on the road and how the Lord had spoken to Saul Then he told them how boldly Saul had spoken for the Lord in Damascus,Ndo Barinaba akimuhala na achenda naye ko kwa ahumwi Achendaambira viryahu ambazho ye Sauli wamona Bwana kahi za charoche na viryahu ambazho ye Bwana wanena naye Kidza akiambira viryahu ambazho ye Sauli wahubiri kahi za dzina ra Jesu ko Damesiki hasiho woga
And so Saul stayed with the followers and went all around Jerusalem speaking boldly for the Lord,Ndo Sauli akitoa hamwenga nao na akikala anadima kwenda hohosi mo Jerusalemu bila wasiwasi na kunena kahi za dzina ra Bwana hasiho woga
He often had arguments with the Greekspeaking Jews who began making plans to kill him,Bai akinena na aryahu Ayahudi manenao Kiyunani na kunenezana nao ela ao makijeza kumwalaga
When the believers learned about this they took Saul to Caesarea and from there they sent him to the city of Tarsus,K'uzhona zho aryahu ndugu marihomanya kit'u kiki mamuhala ye Sauli na makimwomboza vivii muhaka Kaisaria na makimwamba ende T'ariso
The church in Judea Galilee and Samaria had a time of peace And with the help of the Holy Spirit these groups of believers became stronger in faith and showed their respect for the Lord by the way they lived So the church everywhere grew in numbers,Bai ro kanisa ko Judea Galilaya na Samaria k'aripatire mateso kaheri rajengwa na rikienderera kwangezeka Ratoa kahi za kumwagoha Mulungu na kwangizwa nguvu ni Roho Mweri
Peter was traveling through all the areas around Jerusalem and he stopped to visit the believerswho lived in Lydda,Vikara P'et'ero wakala achenda kuno na kuno kahi za yo ts'i Bai siku mwenga watharamuka ko Lida kwendaatsemberera o at'u mariomukuluhira Jesu kuko
There he met a man named Aeneas who was paralyzed and had not been able to get out of bed for the past eight years,K'uzhona zho kuko Lida akimona mut'u mumwenga aifwaye Ainea Mut'u yuyu were waholoza naye were a kitandani kwenda kwa miaka minane
Peter said to him Aeneas Jesus Christ heals you Get up and make your bed He stood up immediately,Bai P'et'ero akimwamba Ainea Jesu Masihi anakuhoza be vivi Ungarara uhandike cho kitandacho hedu Na haho henye Ainea akiungarara na akihenda vizho
All the people living in Lydda and on the plain of Sharon saw him and they decided to follow the Lord,Na lola o at'u osi mariotoa ko Lida na Sharoni mamona iye ariyekala adzahozwa nao makimugalukira Mulungu
In the city of Joppa there was a follower of Jesus named Tabitha Her Greek name Dorcas means a deer She was always doing good things for people and giving money to those in need,Vikara kahi za mudzi wa Jopa kwere kuna mwanafundzi mumwenga aifwaye T'abith'a Dzina riri kwa luga ya Kiyunani ni Dorok'asi Mwanamuche yuyu were anahenda madzo siku zosi na kuaviza akiya
While Peter was in Lydda Tabitha became sick and died They washed her body and put it in an upstairs room,Bai kahi za wakathi uwo akigwirwa ni unyonge na achanongeka wo mwiriwe uchageswa na ukilazwa kahi za chumba cha gorofani
The followers in Joppa heard that Peter was in Lydda which was not far away So they sent two men who begged him Hurry please come quickly,Na kwa viryahu midzi ya Lida na Jopa were k'aikure na kure aryahu anafundzi marihosikira kukala P'et'ero a kuko Lida mahuma at'u airi mende makamusitire adze mara mwenga
Peter got ready and went with them When he arrived they took him to the upstairs room All the widows stood around him They were crying and showing him the coats and other clothes that Tabitha had made during her time with them,P'et'ero arihombirwa vizho akiuka achenda hamwenga nao Bai arihofika wahirikwa kahi za cho chumba cha dzulu K'uzhona zho o anaache magungu mariokala haho mamukundzumanyikira ye P'et'ero kuno manarira na kumwanyesa zo k'andzu na zo nguwo nyingine zirizoshonwa ni Dorok'asi arihokala achere moyo
Peter sent all the people out of the room He knelt down and prayed Then he turned to Tabithas body and said Tabitha stand up She opened her eyes When she saw Peter she sat up,Bai P'et'ero akiamboza o at'u osi ko ndze gonya akipiga mavindi na akivoya badaye akiuhundukira uryahu mwiri na akiamba T'abith'a hedu ungarara Naye T'abith'a akigunula matsoge na arihomona P'et'ero akiuka akikeresi
He gave her his hand and helped her stand up Then he called the believers and the widows into the room He showed them Tabitha she was alive,Bai P'et'ero akimugwira mukono na akimwaviza kurungarara Gonya akiaiha aryahu anaache magungu na ao mariomukuluhira Jesu na akimuhala Dorok'asi akimwika mbere zao wa moyo
People everywhere in Joppa learned about this and many believed in the Lord,Na lola uvoro uu be wavuma kila hat'u kahi za Jopa ndzima na at'u anji makimukuluhira Bwana
Peter stayed in Joppa for many days at the home of a man named Simon who was a leatherworker,P'et'ero wahala siku nyinji zenye ko Jopa kwa fundhi mumwenga wa k'ingo aifwaye Simoni gonya ndo akiuka
The apostles and the believers in Judea heard that nonJewish people had accepted Gods teaching too,Bai aryahu ahumwi na o ndugu mariokala kahi za Judea ndzima masikira kukala aryahu at'u mario si Ayahudi mahokera neno ra Mulungu nao
But when Peter came to Jerusalem some Jewish believersargued with him,Kwa vizho P'et'ero arihombuka ko Jerusalemu aryahu Amasihia mariokala manamala kuangiza lwembeni o Amasihia mario si Ayahudi makwatya kumwangirira
They said You went into the homes of people who are not Jews and are not circumcised and you even ate with them,Makimwamba Uwe wakwendangira nyumba za at'u mario si Ayahudi na mario k'amadzangizwa lwembeni ukirya nao
So Peter explained the whole story to them,Ndo P'et'ero akikwatya kunena akiadondolera kila kit'u lwazu-lwazu here maut'u garizhohendeka kula chaho
He said I was in the city of Joppa While I was praying I had a vision I saw something coming down from heaven It looked like a big sheet being lowered to the ground by its four corners It came down close to me,Akiamba Mut'u mimi were ni kahi za mudzi wa Jopa navoya bai nikiona maono Kahi za go maono nikiona kit'u here riguwo rinatharamushwa kula mulunguni Riguwo riri were ridzagwirwa yo mitsaye mine bai rikithima ho nirihokala
and I looked inside I saw all kinds of animals including wild ones as well as reptiles and birds,Nirihotsungurira mo ndani nikiona nyama a magulu mane a tsakani mahambalao ts'i na unyama wa kubururuka
I heard a voice say to me Get up Peter Kill anything here and eat it,Gonya nikisikira sauthi ikiamba Ungarara P'et'ero utsindze urye
But I said I cant do that Lord I have never eaten anything that is not pure or fit to be used for food,Nikidzigidzya nikiamba Hatha bule Bwana Mo kanwani mwangu be k'amudzangira kit'u chochosi kiricho kulengana na sheria ya Kiyahudi ni kikolo
But the voice from heaven answered again God has made these things pure Dont say they are unfit to eat,Bai iyo sauthi ikinena kaheri kula mulunguni ikiamba Usihale kit'u kidzichotsuswa ni Mulungu ukachamba ni kikolo
This happened three times Then the whole thing was taken back into heaven,Ut'u uu be wahendeka hatha k'ana t'ahu gonya vivi ro riguwo rikivufwa kuuya mulunguni kaheri
Suddenly there were three men standing outside the house where I was staying They had been sent from Caesarea to get me,Na wakathi uwo wenye poo anaalume ahahu mariokala madzahumwa kwangu kula Kaisaria makidza kahi za yo nyumba niriyokala ninakala
The Spirit told me to go with them without wondering if it was all right These six brothers here also went with me and we went to the house of Cornelius,Bai Roho Mweri akinambira nende hamwenga nao hasiho kisoi Bai nikiahala ndugu ahandahu na fuchenda hamwenga na huchangira kahi za nyumba ya mut'u aifwaye Korinelio
He told us about the angel he had seen standing in his house The angel said Send some men to Joppa to get Simon the one who is also called Peter,Hurihongira ye mut'u akifuthalira viryahu arizhombolerwa ni malaika mo nyumbani mwakwe na akimwamba Huma mut'u ende Jopa akamwihe Simoni ariye pia anaifwa P'et'ero
He will speak to you and what he tells you will save you and everyone living in your house,Iye P'et'ero nde andiyekwambira maneno gandigokwokola uwe hamwenga na nyumbayo yosi
After I began speaking the Holy Spirit came on them just as he came on us at the beginning,K'uzhona zho nirihokala nidzakwatya kuadungira moro ye Roho Mweri akiathimira dza viryahu arizhohuthimira ho chaho
Then I remembered the words of the Lord Jesus John baptized people in water but you will be baptized in the Holy Spirit,Ndo nikikumbukira garyahu arigoamba Bwana kukala Johana wabat'iza at'u kwa madzi ela ninwi mundabat'izwa kwa Roho Mweri
God gave these people the same gift he gave us who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ So how could I object to what God wanted to do,Vikara vikikala Mulungu waap'a kigerwa kicho ambacho ndo kicho hurichogerwa siswi hurihomukuluhira Bwana Jesu Masihi Bai mino were ni h'ani hatha nijeze kumuziza Mulungu
When the Jewish believers heard this they stopped arguing They praised God and said So God is also allowing even those who are not Jews to change their hearts so that they can have the life he gives,Marihosikira vivi o Ayahudi mariokala manamala kuangiza lwembeni o Amasihia mario si Ayahudi makinyamala na hat'uhe makimulika Mulungu na kuamba Kudzi Mulungu adzaap'a o at'u mario si Ayahudi nafasi ya kuthubu na mapate uzima
The believers were scattered by the persecutionthat began when Stephen was killed Some of them went as far as Phoenicia Cyprus and Antioch They told the Good News in these places but only to Jews,Vikara aryahu at'u mariokala matsamuka-tsamuka kwa ut'u wa go mateso garigokalako wakathi Sitivini anakotw'a angine makwenda Fonike angine machenda kisiwa cha Kuporo na angine machenda Anitiokia Kahi za kwenda kwao were manaambiriza Ayahudi h'akeye dzulu za wo Uvoro Udzo
Some of these believers were men from Cyprus and Cyrene When these men came to Antioch they began speaking to people who were not JewsThey told them the Good News about the Lord Jesus,Ela bai angine kahi zao mariokala manambola kisiwa cha Kuporo na K'irene marihofika Anitiokia makwendakwacha kuahubiri o Ayunani kuko nako Mahubiri Uvoro Udzo wa Bwana Jesu
The Lord was helping these men and a large number of people believed and decided to follow the Lord,Bai nguvu za Mulungu zere zi hamwenga nao na at'u anji makikuluhira na makimugalukira Mulungu
When the church in Jerusalem heard about this they sent Barnabas to Antioch,K'uzhona zho uvoro uu ukirifikira ro kanisa ko Jerusalemu bai makimuhuma Barinaba ende ko Anitiokia
Then Barnabas went to the city of Tarsus to look for Saul,Badaye akiuka achenda T'ariso kumumala Sauli
When he found him he brought him to Antioch They stayed there a whole year Every time the church came together Barnabas and Saul met with them and taught many people It was in Antioch that the followers of the Lord Jesus were called Christfollowers for the first time,Bai Barinaba arihomona Sauli makudza osi muhaka Anitiokia Nao kwa mwaka muzima makala makithunganana na ro kanisa kuko na kidza mafundisha at'u anji sana kuko Kuko Anitiokia ndiko ambako o anafundzi a Jesu maandza kuifwa Amasihia kwa mara ya kwandza kamare
About that same time some prophets went from Jerusalem to Antioch,Bai kahi za wakathi uwo kuchambola manabii kula Jerusalemu makitharamuka Anitiokia
One of them named Agabus stood up and spoke with the help of the Spirit He said A very bad time is coming to the whole world There will be no food for people to eat This time of famine happened when Claudius was emperor,Mumwenga wao were anaifwa Agabo Agabo waungarara na kwa nguvu za Roho akinena kimbere kukala kundakudza ndzala ya kitai kahi za urumwengu muzima Ndzala ii yakudza jeri wakathi wa kuthawala kwa Kilaudio
The Lords followers decided that they would each send as much as they could to help their brothers and sisters who lived in Judea,Bai o ndugu makipanga kukala kila mumwenga wao kulengana na wadimiwe amboze musadha kwa o anafundzi andziyao ko Judea
They gathered the money and gave it to Barnabas and Saul who took it to the elders in Judea,Nazho ndo marizhohenda Mahirika yo mitsango yao kwa o azee a kanisa ko Judea kukirira kwa Barinaba na Sauli
During this same time King Herod began to do harm to some of those who were part of the church,Vikara kahi za wakathi uu muthawali Herode wakwatya kuatesa angine kahi za ro kanisa
He ordered James the brother of John to be killed with a sword,Wamwalaga Jakobu nduguye Johana kwa mushu
Herod saw that many of the Jews liked this so he decided to arrest Peter too This happened during the Festival of Unleavened Bread,Bai arihoona kukala ut'u uu unaafwahiza o Ayahudi wamugwira P'et'ero naye Maut'u gaga gahendeka wakathi uryahu wa sikuk'uu ya Mikahe Iso Ts'ats'u
He arrested Peter and put him in jail where he was guarded by a group of 16 soldiers Herod planned to bring Peter before the people but he wanted to wait until after the Passover festival,Vikara arihomugwira P'et'ero wamuhala na akimusindikira jela na akilagiza arindwe ni makundi mane ga shikari ane-ane Herode were adzapanga amwamboze ndze ajibu k'esi mbere za at'u bada ya sherehe ya P'asaka
So Peter was kept in jail but the church was constantly praying to God for him,Kwa vizho akithuwa kuikwa mo jela ela ro kanisa bai rikimuvoya Mulungu kwa chadi dzuluze
One night Peter bound with two chains was sleeping between two of the soldiers More soldiers were guarding the door of the jail Herod was planning to bring Peter out before the people the next day,Bai usiku uryahu wa kulalira siku ambayo Herode were andamwamboza ajibu k'esi P'et'ero were arere kahikahi kuno ni shikari na kuno ni shikari Naye were adzafungwa minyororo miri na kuko ndze ya muryango were kuna shikari
Suddenly an angel of the Lord was standing there and the room was filled with light The angel tapped Peter on the side and woke him up The angel said Hurry get up The chains fell off Peters hands,Bai lola malaika wa Bwana achambola na wo mulangazawe uking'ala mo chumbani Ye malaika akimupiga-piga mo lwavuni ye P'et'ero akimulamusa Akimwamba Uka mara mwenga Na lola yo minyororo potho ikigwa kula mo mikononi mwakwe
The angel said Get dressed and put on your sandals Peter did as he was told Then the angel said Put on your coat and follow me,Gonya ye malaika akimwamba Dzifunge wo ukandao na uvale zho virahuzho H'aya P'et'ero akihenda vizho Ye malaika akimwamba H'aya dzikut'e ro ambaro na unithuwe
So the angel went out and Peter followed He did not know if the angel was really doing this He thought he might be seeing a vision,K'uzhona zho P'et'ero akimuthuwa ye malaika kwombola ndze ya yo jela ela ko k'amanyire kala zho arizhokala anahenda ye malaika ni zha jeri kwani hatha waona here kwamba anaona maono beye
Peter and the angel went past the first guard and the second guard Then they came to the iron gate that separated them from the city The gate opened for them by itself After they went through the gate and walked about a block the angel suddenly left,Bai ndoo vivii hatha makikira cho kikundi cha kwandza na cha hiri cha o shikari na machambolera wo muryango wa chuma ambawo ndo wa kwangirira mo mudzini Marihofika haho wo muryango ukihenda kuvuguka wenye na makimbola Vikara marihonenda kahi za barabara mwenga lola ye malaika akimwangamika
Peter realized then what had happened He thought Now I know that the Lord really sent his angel to me He rescued me from Herod and from everything those Jews thought would happen to me,Ndo P'et'ero akitsundzulukwa na akinena kimoyo-moyo akiamba Vivi namanya ni jeri kukala Bwana adzahuma malaikawe akadzanamboza magandzani mwa Herode na gosi marigo o Ayahudi were madzapanga kunihendera
When Peter realized this he went to the home of Mary the mother of John who was also called Mark Many people were gathered there and were praying,Bai maut'u gaga garihomung'alira wafururiza muhaka nyumbani kwa Maryamu mameye Johana ariye pia anaifwa Mariko Kuko kwere kuna at'u anji madzakundzumanyika manavoya
Peter knocked on the outside door A servant girl named Rhoda came to answer it,P'et'ero akibisha na wo muryango wa ko ndze na hachambola musichana mumwenga aifwaye Roda ariye were ni muhendzi wa kazi wa mo nyumbani bai achenda ili akamuvugulire
She recognized Peters voice and she was very happy She even forgot to open the door She ran inside and told the group Peter is at the door,K'uzhona zho arihomanya kukala wo mumiro ni wa P'et'ero wadzalwa ni raha ut'u wa kwangalaza hatha akiuya malo hasiho kuusundula wo muryango achendaamba Ni P'et'ero benwi O at'u marihosikira vizho makimudzigidzya makiamba
The believers said to her You are crazy But she continued to say that it was true So they said It must be Peters angel,Una vilalu uwe Ela arihosita kuamba ni P'et'ero o at'u makiamba Iye ni malaikawe
But Peter continued to knock When the believers opened the door they saw him They were amazed,Wakathi uwo P'et'ero were anabisha thu bai marihosundula wo muryango na kumona mangalala kamare
Peter made a sign with his hand to tell them to be quiet He explained to them how the Lord led him out of the jail He said Tell James and the other brothers what happened Then he left and went to another place,P'et'ero akiavungira mukono manyamale gonya akiathalira viryahu Bwana arizhomwamboza ko jela Badaye akiamba Ambireni Jakobu na o ndugu angine dzulu za maut'u gaga Gonya akiuka achenda kut'u kungine
The next day the soldiers were very upset They wondered what happened to Peter,K'uzhona zho kurihocha o shikari mabudzyika sana Makiuzana-uzana na kuamba Vino be akale ye P'et'ero adzakwendahi
Herod looked everywhere for him but could not find him So he questioned the guards and then ordered that they be killed,Bai Herode akilagiza P'et'ero amalwe hatha apatikane ela bai k'amamonere bule K'uzhona zho Herode akiauza-uza maswali o arindzi gonya akilagiza manyongwe Bada ya gaga Herode wauka Judea na akitharamuka kwenda Kaisaria na akikala kuko siku za kuthala
Herod was very angry with the people from the cities of Tyre and Sidon But these cities needed food from his country so a group of them came to ask him for peace They were able to get Blastus the kings personal servant on their side,Herode were ana k'ondo na at'u a Tiro na Sidoni K'uzhona zho o at'u makiungana na machendamona Nao were mamwangola-ngola Bulasito ariye were ni muhumiki adziyekuluhirwa ni ye muthawali hatha akikira upande wao Bai makwendamala dheri na Herode kwani chakurya chao ao at'u a Tiro na Sidoni were kimbola ko Herode arikokala anathawala
Herod decided on a day to meet with them On that day he was wearing a beautiful royal robe He sat on his throne and made a speech to the people,Bai yo mbadha mariyoikana irihofika Herode wakelesi kahi za kihiche cha endzi kuno adzakot'ea go mavwaloge ga kithawali bai akikwatya kuahutubia o at'u
The people shouted This is the voice of a god not a man,Marihosikira yo hotubaye makipiga njerejere makiamba Ii be ni sauthi ya mulungu kamare si ya mwanadamu hatha
Herod did not give the glory to God So an angel of the Lord caused him to get sick He was eaten by worms inside him and he died,Haho henye malaika wa Bwana akimwakasha naye akiriwa ni minyolo akifwa mana k'amup'ire nguma Mulungu
The message of God was spreading reaching more and more people,Neno ra Mulungu ro rikikaza kuhenda nguvu na rikitsalalira
After Barnabas and Saul finished their work in Jerusalem they returned to Antioch taking John Mark with them,Bai Barinaba na Sauli marihomarigiza yo shuhuli mariyohumwa mauka Jerusalemu na makimuhala Johana ariye dzina ringine nde Mariko makiuya Anitiokia
In the church at Antioch there were some prophets and teachers They were Barnabas Simeon also called Niger Lucius from the city of Cyrene Manaen who had grown up with King Herod and Saul,Bai kahi za ro kanisa ko Anitiokia were kuna manabii na alimu At'u aa were ni Barinaba na Simioni ariye were pia anaifwa Nigeri yani mut'u mwiru na Lukio kula K'irene na Sauli na Manaeni Manaeni were wafugwa na Herode
These men were all serving the Lord and fasting when the Holy Spirit said to them Appoint Barnabas and Saul to do a special work for me They are the ones I have chosen to do it,Vikara marihokala makumuvoyani Bwana na kufunga ye Roho Mweri waamba Nithengerani k'anda Barinaba na Sauli kwa ut'u wa yo kazi niriyoaihira
So the church fasted and prayed They laid their hands on Barnabas and Saul and sent them out,Kwa vizho marihokala madzafunga na kuvoya maaikira mikono gonya makiamboza machenda
Barnabas and Saul were sent out by the Holy Spirit They went to the city of Seleucia Then they sailed from there to the island of Cyprus,Bai o airi marihokala madzaambwa mende ni ye Roho Mweri matharamuka kut'u kuifwako Seleukia na kuko machangira chomboni na machenda vivii muhaka kisiwa cha Kuporo
When Barnabas and Saul came to the city of Salamis they told the message of God in the Jewish synagogues John Mark was with them to help,Marihofika Kuporo mangira mudzi wa Salami makihubiri neno ra Mulungu kahi za go masinagogi ga Ayahudi kuko Johana Mariko were a hamwenga nao dza here mut'u wa kuaviza-viza
They went across the whole island to the city of Paphos There they met a Jewish man named Barjesus who did magic He was a false prophet,Bai Barinaba na Sauli makwenda kuno na kuno kahi za cho kisiwa hatha makifika P'afo kuko P'afo makimona muganga mumwenga wa Kiyahudi aifwaye Bari-Jesu Mut'u yuyu were ni nabii wa ulongo
He always stayed close to Sergius Paulus who was the governor and a very smart man He invited Barnabas and Saul to come visit him because he wanted to hear the message of God,kidza were anaelewana na luwali Serigio P'aulo Serigio P'aulo were ni mut'u wa akili sana Bai ye luwali akilagiza Barinaba na Sauli mende ko kwakwe mana were mana haja na kusikira neno ra Mulungu
But the magician Elymas as Barjesus was called in Greek spoke against them trying to stop the governor from believing in Jesus,Ela bai yuyahu muganga ariye dzinare kwa Kiyunani ni Eluma akiaikira vikwazo na akijeza kumugaluza ye luwali ili asikuluhire
But Saul also known as Paul filled with the Holy Spirit looked hard at Elymas,Ndo Sauli ambaye pia were anaifwa P'aulo akimuthema dzitso ye Eluma kuno athele Roho Mweri akimwamba
and said You son of the devil full of lies and all kinds of evil tricks You are an enemy of everything that is right Will you never stop trying to change the Lords truths into lies,Uwe u mwana wa Shethani na u hadhui wa kila kit'u kiricho karakara U thele kila samupuli ya ukengi na ujanja na unajeza kuuhala ujeri wa Bwana na kuuhendya ulongo
Now the Lord will touch you and you will be blind For a time you will not be able to see anythingnot even the light from the sun,H'aya bai lola mukono wa Bwana u dzuluzo nawe vivi undakala kipofu kwa muda na k'undaona mulangaza wowosi Naye haho henye matsoge gachangira kunje na kiza naye akikala ni wa zuzuru-zuzuru kumala mut'u amugwire mukono amutsetseze
When the governor saw this he believed He was amazed at the teaching about the Lord,K'uzhona zho ye luwali arihoona gago garigokala gadzahendeka wakuluhira na achangalazwa ni go mafundisho dzulu za Bwana Jesu
Paul and the people with him sailed away from Paphos They came to Perga a city in Pamphylia There John Mark left them and returned to Jerusalem,Bai kula P'afo P'aulo na andziye makwera chomboni machenda mudzi wa P'eriga kahi za ts'i ya P'amufulia Marihofika kuko Johana Mariko waaricha na akiuya Jerusalemu
They continued their trip from Perga and went to Antioch a city near Pisidia,H'aya makiuka kula P'eriga na machenda kut'u kuriko kunaifwa Anitiokia kahi za ts'i ya P'isidia Bai siku ya Sabato irihofika machangira kahi za sinagogi makikeresi
The Law of Moses and the writings of the prophets were read Then the leaders of the synagogue sent a message to Paul and Barnabas Brothers if you have something to say that will help the people here please speak,Bai hachambola mut'u akishoma Maoro kula kahi za Sheria ya Musa na kula kahi za Maoro ga manabii Gonya aryahu abomu a ro sinagogi makihuma mut'u achendaambira o ani P'aulo vivi Ndugu chamba muna neno rorosi rindiroangiza nguvu aa at'u be hunamuvoya murinene
Paul stood up raised his hand to get their attention and said People of Israel and all you others who worship the true God please listen to me,Ndo P'aulo akirungarara akiavungira mukono ili mamusirikize akiamba H'enwi at'u a Iziraeli na ninwi nyosi murio k'amu Ayahudi ela munamwogoha Mulungu nisirikizani hedu
The God of Israel chose our ancestors And during the time our people lived in Egypt as foreigners he made them great Then he brought them out of that country with great power,Iye Mulungu wa at'u a Iziraeli waatsagula o akare ehu na akiahendya makikala taifa bomu kahi za kuishi kwao ko Misiri kidza akiamboza kula kahi za ts'i iyo kwa nguvuze nyinji
And he was patient with them for 40 years in the desert,na akiavumirira kwa miaka mirongo mine ko nyika
God destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan and gave their land to his people,Iye Mulungu vizho akiganonga makabila mafungahe ga at'u mariokala manatoa kahi za ts'i ya K'anani na akihala yo ts'i yao akianosa at'ue ikale yao
All this happened in about 450 years,Maut'u gaga gosi gahala miaka magana mane na mirongo mitsano badaye Mulungu akitsagula at'u na akiahendya makale vilongozi na alamuli ao bai zhakala vivi muhaka wakathi wa nabii Samueli
Then the people asked for a king God gave them Saul the son of Kish Saul was from the tribe of Benjamin He was king for 40 years,Bai badaye o at'u mamala muthawali na Mulungu akiap'a Sauli mwana wa Kishi wa kula kahi za mbari ya Benjamini naye Sauli wathawala miaka mirongo mine
After God took Saul away God made David their king This is what God said about David David the son of Jesse is the kind of person who does what pleases me He will do everything I want him to do,H'aya badaye Mulungu arihomufuta Sauli wamutsagula Daudi na akimuhendya akale muthawali wao Mulungu wanena dzulu za Daudi akiamba Nidzafwahirwa zhomu ni Daudi mwana wa Jese Kwani nidzamona kukala andahenda kila kit'u nindichomwambira ahende
As he promised God has brought one of Davids descendants to Israel to be their Savior That descendant is Jesus,Bai kula kahi za lukolo lwa mut'u yuyu Mulungu waarehera mwokoli Jesu o Aiziraeli here arizhokala walaga
Before he came John told all the people of Israel what they should do He told them to be baptized to show they wanted to change their lives,Ela kabila Jesu k'adzaandza kaziye Johana wahubiri kwa o Aiziraeli osi dzulu za kuthubu na kubat'izwa
When John was finishing his work he said Who do you think I am I am not the MessiahHe is coming later and I am not worthy to be the slave who unties his sandals,Naye Johana arihokala akumarigizani kaziye waamba Vidze munaelelya kukala mino ni h'ani Bai mimi si iye mumutharizaye ela lolani kuna mut'u andiyekudza nyuma zangu ambaye sifika hatha mut'u wa kumuvula virahu
My brothers sons in the family of Abraham and you other people who also worship the true God listen The news about this salvation has been sent to us,P'aulo akienderera kunena akiamba Ndugu zangu ana a Burahemu na ninwi ambao k'amu Ayahudi ela munamwogoha Mulungu uvoro uu wa wokolwi k'aungadzire ela wakudza kwa ut'u wa siswi
The Jews living in Jerusalem and their leaders did not realize that Jesus was the Savior The words the prophets wrote about him were read every Sabbath day but they did not understand They condemned Jesus When they did this they made the words of the prophets come true,Ao at'u a Jerusalemu na athawali ao k'amamanyire kukala Jesu were nde mwokoli ela marihokala madzamuhukumu kwalagwa makigathimiza garyahu maneno ga manabii gashomwago kila siku ya Sabato
They could not find any real reason why Jesus should die but they asked Pilate to kill him,Idzaho k'amadimire kupata ushahidhi wa kuthosha wa kumuhukumu kwalagwa ao mamwamba P'ilato alagize alagwe vizho
These Jews did all the bad things that the Scriptures said would happen to Jesus Then they took Jesus down from the cross and put him in a tomb,Bai marihogonya kumuhendera garyahu garigoorwa kahi za Maoro dzuluze mamuthinya kula ho musalabani machendamwangiza mbirani
But God raised him up from death,Ela Mulungu akimufufula kula kifwani
After this for many days those who had gone with Jesus from Galilee to Jerusalem saw him They are now his witnesses to our people,naye akionewa siku nyinji zenye ni aryahu ariokala akisafiri nao kula Galilaya kwenda Jerusalemu Bai at'u aa ndo mashahidhie kwa o at'u ehu
We tell you the Good News about the promise God made to our ancestors,P'aulo akienderera kunena akiamba At'u siswi hunamwambiriza Uvoro Udzo wa cho kilagane marichop'ewa akare ehu
We are their descendants and God has made this promise come true for us God did this by raising Jesus from death We also read about this in Psalm 2,ambacho Mulungu adzakithimiza kwehu siswi ana kwa kumufufula Jesu kula kifwani Here zaburi ya hiri kahi za chuwo cha Zaburi iambazho kukala
God raised Jesus from death Jesus will never go back to the grave and become dust So God said,Na dzulu za kufufulwa kwa Jesu kula kifwani ili asiole iye Mulungu wanena akiamba
But in another Psalm it says,Kidza kahi za go Maoro hat'u hangine hanaamba
David did Gods will during the time he lived Then he died and was buried like all his ancestors And his body did rot in the grave,P'aulo akienderera kunena akiamba Mana Daudi arihogonya kuhenda maut'u ga Mulungu kahi za kizhaziche waathuwa o ts'aweze akizikwa na akiola
But the one God raised from death did not rot in the grave,Ela iye ariyefufulwa ni Mulungu kula kifwani k'aolere bule
Brothers understand what we are telling you You can have forgiveness of your sins through this Jesus The Law of Moses could not free you from your sins But you can be made right with God if you believe in Jesus,Kwa vizho ndugu zangu namala mumanye kukala ninwi munaambirizwa dzulu za musamaha wa dambi kukirira kwa Jesu Kukirira kwa iye bai kila mut'u akuluhiraye anahendywa muhachi kula kwa garyahu ambago were Sheria ya Musa k'aidima kumuhendya muhachi
So be careful Dont let what the prophets said happen to you,H'aya dzimanyirireni bai ili garyahu garigoorwa kahi za chuwo cha manabii gasimupate bule
Listen you people who doubt,Nago ganaamba vivi
As Paul and Barnabas were leaving the synagogue the people asked them to come again on the next Sabbath day and tell them more about these things,Vikara P'aulo na Barinaba marihokala makumbolani mo sinagogini o at'u maambira o ani P'aulo madze kaheri kahi za yo siku ya Sabato idzayo ili madze manene zaidhi dzulu za gago maut'u marigokala madzaganena kare
After the meeting many of the people followed Paul and Barnabas including many Jews and people who had changed their religion to be like Jews and worship the true God Paul and Barnabas encouraged them to continue trusting in Gods grace,Bai uryahu muthunganano urihokala unafumukana P'aulo na Barinaba mathuwiwa ni Ayahudi anji na at'u angine anji mario were manathuwa dini ya Kiyahudi bai o ani P'aulo masumurira na at'u na makiakokot'era ili makaze kuremera wo udzo wa Mulungu
On the next Sabbath day almost all the people in the city came together to hear the word of the Lord,K'uzhona zho yo Sabato nyingine irihofika karibu kila mut'u kahi za mudzi uwo wakudza ili asikire neno ra Bwana
When the Jews there saw all these people they became very jealous Shouting insults they argued against everything Paul said,Ela o Ayahudi marihoona ro thele ra at'u madzalwa ni wivu na makikwatya kunena mai dzulu za go arigokala P'aulo ananena makimuhukana-hukana
But Paul and Barnabas spoke very boldly They said We had to tell Gods message to you Jews first but you refuse to listen You have made it clear that you are not worthy of having eternal life So we will now go to those who are not Jews,Ndo P'aulo na Barinaba makiadzigidzya hasiho woga makiamba At'u siswi were k'avina budhi fuandze kumwambira neno ra Mulungu ninwi kwandza ela kwa kukala munarikahala na k'amudziona kukala munavirya mupate uzima wa kare na kare lolani funamuricha na hunenda kwa o at'u mario si Ayahudi
This is what the Lord told us to do,Mana vizho ndizho Bwana arizhofulagiza akiamba
When the nonJewish people heard Paul say this they were happy They gave honor to the message of the Lord and many of them believed it These were the ones chosen to have eternal life,K'uzhona zho aryahu at'u mario si Ayahudi marihosikira vivi mafwahirwa na makimulazhira muvera Bwana kwa ro nenore na osini mariotsagulwa kwa ut'u wa uzima wa kare na kare makuluhira
And so the message of the Lord was being told throughout the whole country,Bai ro neno ra Bwana ratsamuka kila hat'u kahi za ro jimbo riro
But the Jews there caused some of the important religious women and the leaders of the city to be angry and turn against Paul and Barnabas and throw them out of town,Ela o Ayahudi makiavuga akili aryahu ano m'ama mariokala manamwagoha Mulungu na manaishimiwa sana na makiavuga akili aryahu anaalume mario ni abomu kahi za mudzi uwo na makikwatya kuatesa o ani P'aulo na Barinaba na makiainga kula kahi za jimbo rao
So Paul and Barnabas shook the dust off their feetThen they went to the city of Iconium,Aryahu ani P'aulo bai makikut'a-kut'a ro vumbi ra maguluni mwao here onyo kwao gonya makiuka machenda Ikonio
But the Lords followers in Antioch were happy and filled with the Holy Spirit,Na o anafundzi makikala mana raha sana na makidzalwa ni Roho Mweri
Paul and Barnabas went to the city of Iconium As they did in Antioch they entered the Jewish synagogue They spoke to the people there They spoke so well that many Jews and Greeks believed what they said,Vikara kuko Ikonio P'aulo na Barinaba makwenda kahi za sinagogi ra Kiyahudi here garizhokala mazowera gao Bai marihofika mumo sinagogini makihubirit'o hatha kundi bomu renye ra Ayahudi na at'u mario si Ayahudi makikuluhira
But some of the Jews did not believe They said things that caused the nonJewish people to be angry and turn against the believers,Ela aryahu Ayahudi mario k'amakuluhirire maavuga akili aryahu at'u mario si Ayahudi ili makale kinyume cha o ndugu
So Paul and Barnabas stayed in Iconium a long time and they spoke bravely for the Lord They told the people about Gods grace The Lord proved that what they said was true by causing miraculous signs and wonders to be done through them,Bai P'aulo na Barinaba makala kut'u kuko kwa muda mure wenye kuhubiri dzulu za Bwana hasiho woga Ye Bwana akinyesa kukala wo uvoro wa nemaye ni wa jeri kwa kuap'a nguvu za kuhenda miujiza na maut'u ga kwangalaza
But some of the people in the city agreed with the Jews who did not believe Paul and Barnabas Others followed the apostles So the city was divided,Bai ro kundi ra at'u kahi za mudzi uwo rikigazhika kabadhi kakikala upande wa aryahu Ayahudi na kabadhi kangine kakikala upande wa aryahu ahumwi
Some of the Jews there as well as their leaders and some of the nonJewish people were determined to hurt Paul and Barnabas They wanted to stone them to death,Mwishowe aryahu at'u mario si Ayahudi na o Ayahudi hamwenga na vilongozi makitsila njama ya kuahenda kit'u kii o ahumwi Mana were madzapanga maakot'e mawe
When Paul and Barnabas learned about this they left the city They went to Lystra and Derbe cities in Lycaonia and to the surrounding areas,K'uzhona zho o ahumwi makivigundua na makichimbira kwenda kahi za midzi ya Lukaonia ambayo ni Lusitera na Deribe kidza machenda hatha kahi za go malalo gadzigoizunguluka yo midzi iyo
They told the Good News there too,Marihokala ma kuko bai maenderera kuhubiri wo Uvoro Udzo wa Mulungu
In Lystra there was a man who had something wrong with his feet He had been born crippled and had never walked,Bai kuko Lusitera kwere kuna mwanamulume mumwenga ariyekala wazhalwa kidende naye were k'adzanenda hatha siku mwenga
He was sitting and listening to Paul speak Paul looked straight at him and saw that the man believed God could heal him,Vikara akikelesi akimusirikiza P'aulo ananena Bai P'aulo akimuthema dzitso ye kidende na akimona kukala anakuluhira kukala andahozwa
So Paul shouted Stand up on your feet The man jumped up and began walking around,Kwa vizho akinena naye kwa sauthi ya dzulu akimwamba H'aya ungarara na magulugo Haho henye ye mut'u akiguluka na akikwatya kwanenda
When the people saw what Paul did they shouted in their own Lycaonian language They said The gods have come down to us in the form of humans,K'uzhona zho ro kundi ra at'u ririhoona vizho arizhokala P'aulo adzahenda mapiga k'ululu kahi za luga yao ya Kilukaonia na kuamba Milungu idzathima kwehu kwa umbo ra anadamu benwi
The people began to call Barnabas Zeus and they called Paul Hermes because he was the main speaker,Bai Barinaba makimwamba nde ZeusiP'aulo ye makimwamba nde Herimemana nde ariyekala ananena
The temple of Zeus was near the city The priest of this temple brought some bulls and flowers to the city gates The priest and the people wanted to offer a sacrifice to Paul and Barnabas,Ye mulombi wa Zeusi ambaye hekalure were ri ko ndze ya wo mudzi akidza na ndzao za ng'ombe na viremba zha maluwa muhaka ho muryango wa kwangirira mo mudzini Iye hamwenga na ro kundi ra at'u were manamala kuambozera sadaka o ahumwi
But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul understood what the people were doing they tore their own clothesThen they ran in among the people and shouted to them,Ela Barinaba na P'aulo marihosikira maut'u gaga mahala zo nguwo zao makizitharura kunyesa kukala zho at'u marizhokala mananena na kuhenda were k'aviafwaha kamare Nao lola mauka malo muhaka mo kundini kuno manaamba
Men why are you doing this We are not gods We are human just like you We came to tell you the Good News We are telling you to turn away from these worthless things Turn to the true living God the one who made the sky the earth the sea and everything that is in them,Asena kwanoni munahenda kit'u dza kino Siswi naswi be fu at'u thu fu binadamu dza here ninwi Siswi fudzamurehera Uvoro Udzo hudzire humwambire muriche kuhasa vit'u vivi visizho mana na mumugalukire Mulungu ariye moyo na ariyeumba dzulu na ts'i na bahari na zhosini virizho mumo
In the past God let all the nations do what they wanted,Haho kapindi iye Mulungu waaricha at'u osi mathuwe maut'u gao genye
But God was always there doing the good things that prove he is real He gives you rain from heaven and good harvests at the right times He gives you plenty of food and fills your hearts with joy,Ela hamwenga na vizho k'arichire kudzambozera ushahidhi wa kukala a kuko Iye Mulungu anamup'a vula kula dzulu na anamup'a vilimo vidzo iye vizho anamugera chakurya kinji na anayadzaza mioyo yenu raha
Even after saying all this Paul and Barnabas still could hardly stop the people from offering sacrifices to them,Na lola hatha bada ya maneno gaga kidza zhakala vikomu kwa P'aulo na Barinaba kuzulia ro kundi risiambozere sadaka
Then some Jews came from Antioch and Iconium and persuaded the people to turn against Paul So they threw stones at him and dragged him out of the town They thought they had killed him,Ndo kukidza Ayahudi angine kula Anitiokia na Ikonio makidzanena na o at'u hatha o at'u makigwira go gao Makimukot'a mawe P'aulo na makimuvurura muhadhi ko ndze ya wo mudzi kuno manaona kukala adzafwa beo
But when the followers of Jesus gathered around him he got up and went back into the town The next day he and Barnabas left and went to the city of Derbe,Ela o anafundzi marihomukundzumanyikira waungarara na akiuya kaheri mo mudzini Bai siku ya hiriye iye na Barinaba mauka na machenda Deribe
They also told the Good News in the city of Derbe and many people became followers of Jesus Then Paul and Barnabas returned to the cities of Lystra Iconium and Antioch,Bai P'aulo na Barinaba mahubiri wo Uvoro Udzo kuko Deribe na at'u anji enye makimukuluhira Jesu Badaye makiuya ko Lusitera Ikonio na Anitiokia
In those cities they helped the followers grow stronger in their faith and encouraged them to continue trusting God They told them We must suffer many things on our way into Gods kingdom,kuno manaangiza nguvu na kuap'a moyo o anafundzi ili maenderere kutoa kahi za ro kuluhiro Makiamba Ko kwangira kahi za uthawali wa Mulungu be suthi fukirire shidha nyinji zenye
They also chose elders for each church and stopped eating for a period of time to pray for them These elders were men who had put their trust in the Lord Jesus so Paul and Barnabas put them in his care,Bai kahi za wakathi uwo vizho P'aulo na Barinaba matsagula azee kahi za kila kanisa na kwa kufunga na kuvoya makiaika mbere za ye Bwana mariyemukuluhira
Paul and Barnabas went through the country of Pisidia Then they came to the country of Pamphylia,Kigonya o ahumwi makikira na jimbo ra P'isidia na makifika P'amufulia
They told people the message of God in the city of Perga and then they went down to the city of Attalia,Bai kuko P'amufulia mahubiri ro neno ra Mulungu kahi za mudzi wa P'eriga ndo makitharamuka machenda Atalia
And from there they sailed away to Antioch in Syria This is the city where the believers had put them into Gods care and sent them to do this work Now they had finished it,Kuko Atalia machangira chomboni na makidziuja Anitiokia ambako ndo marikovoyerwa ho chaho kwamba Mulungu aaonere mbazi na aavize kahi za yo kazi ambayo were ndo vivi madzaimarigiza
When Paul and Barnabas arrived they gathered the church together They told them everything God had used them to do They said God opened a door for the nonJewish people to believe,Bai marihofika kuko marikusanya hamwenga ro kanisa na makithala kila kit'u ambacho ye Mulungu wakihenda kukirira kwa ao na makithala viryahu ambazho Mulungu wavugula muryango na o at'u mario si Ayahudi makikuluhira
And they stayed there a long time with the Lords followers,Nao bai o ani P'aulo makala kuko na o anafundzi kwa muda mure wenye
Then some men came to Antioch from Judea and began teaching the nonJewish believers You cannot be saved if you are not circumcised as Moses taught us,Badaye kukidza at'u alume kula Judea ko Anitiokia At'u alume aa were manaafundisha o ndugu na kuamba Kala k'amundangizwa lwembeni karakara na Sheria ya Musa iambazho be manyani k'amudima kuokoka bule
Paul and Barnabas were against this teaching and argued with these men about it So the group decided to send Paul Barnabas and some others to Jerusalem to talk more about this with the apostles and elders,K'uzhona zho kit'u kiki kindaahenda P'aulo na Barinaba manenezane na aa at'u jeri-jeri Mwishowe vikionewa kukala baha P'aulo na Barinaba magwirane na ndugu angine na mambuke kwenda Jerusalemu kwendaauza mashauri o ahumwi na o azee a kanisa dzulu za kit'u kiki cha kwangizwa lwembeni
The church helped them get ready to leave on their trip The men went through the countries of Phoenicia and Samaria where they told all about how the nonJewish people had turned to the true God This made all the believers very happy,H'aya makihumwa ni ro kanisa nao machenda Kahi za charo chao makira na Fonike na Samaria kuko makiambira o at'u viryahu ambazho o at'u mario si Ayahudi mamugalukira Mulungu Bai uvoro uu waahenda o ndugu mafurahi sana
When the men arrived in Jerusalem the apostles the elders and the whole church welcomed them Paul Barnabas and the others told about all that God had done with them,Vikara marihofika Jerusalemu makaribishwat'o ni ro kanisa na o ahumwi na o azee a kanisa Ndo makiadondolera kila kit'u ambacho Mulungu wakihenda kukirira kwa ao
Some of the believers in Jerusalem had belonged to the Pharisees They stood up and said The nonJewish believers must be circumcised We must tell them to obey the Law of Moses,Ela angine kahi za aryahu mariokuluhira na mario were ma kahi za chama cha Mafarisayo makiungarara makiamba At'u ao ni mangizwe lwembeni ndo maamuriwe kuithuwa yo Sheria ya Musa
Then the apostles and the elders gathered to study this problem,Bai o ahumwi na o azee makiona baha maike mukut'ano na masumurire dzulu za kit'u kiki
After a long debate Peter stood up and said to them My brothers I am sure you remember what happened in the early days God chose me from among you to tell the Good News to those who are not Jewish It was from me that they heard the Good News and believed,Vikara kahi za mukut'ano uwo makudzasumurira kwa muda mure wenye hasiho kugwirana maneno ndo P'et'ero akiungarara na akinena nao akiamba Ndugu zangu ninwi munamanya kukala ho kapindi Mulungu wanitsagula kula kahi zenu ili niambirize Uvoro Udzo o at'u mario si Ayahudi ili masikire na makuluhire
God knows everyone even their thoughts and he accepted these nonJewish people He showed this to us by giving them the Holy Spirit the same as he did to us,Na Mulungu amanyaye mioyo ya at'u wanyesa kukala adzaahokera kwa kuap'a Roho Mweri dza here zho arizhohup'a siswi
To God those people are not different from us When they believed God made their hearts pure,Haho marihokuluhira Mulungu waatsusa mioyo yao dza zho arizhofutsusa mioyo yehu wakathi furihomukuluhira K'aambire ano mavino ano mavino
So now why are you putting a heavy burdenaround the necks of the nonJewish followers of Jesus Are you trying to make God angry We and our fathers were not able to carry that burden,Vikara mbona munamujeza Mulungu kwa kuahika o anafundzi muzigo uriwo waashinda o akare enu na siswi kuutsukula
No we believe that we and these people will be saved the same wayby the grace of the Lord Jesus,Ela bai hunakuluhira kukala siswi hunaokoka kwa mbazi za Bwana Jesu karakara na ao
Then the whole group became quiet They listened while Paul and Barnabas told about all the miraculous signs and wonders that God had done through them among the nonJewish people,Badaye ani P'aulo na Barinaba marihokala manathala viryahu ambazho Mulungu wahenda miujiza na maut'u ga kwangalaza kwa o at'u mario si Ayahudi kukirira kwa ao wo muthunganano wosi wanyamala zii kuasirikiza
When they finished speaking James said My brothers listen to me,Bai marihotosa wo moro wao Jakobu waungarara na akiamba Ndugu nisirikizani hedu
Simon Peter has told us how God showed his love for the nonJewish people For the first time God accepted them and made them his people,Simoniadzahuthalira viryahu ambazho Mulungu ho kwandza waalola o at'u mario si Ayahudi na kahi zao akidzivulira kafudza
The words of the prophets agree with this too,Go maneno ga o manabii be ganagwirana na ut'u uu Here Maoro gaambazho
I will return after this,Bada ya maut'u gaga nindauya
Then the rest of the world will look for the Lord God,ili o at'u masereo mamumale Bwana
All this has been known from the beginning of time,ambago wahenda gamanyikane kula kapindi na kapindi
So I think we should not make things hard for those who have turned to God from among the nonJewish people,Jakobu akienderera kunena akiamba Kwa vizho bai kizhangu mimi naona kukala fusivihende vikomu kwa o at'u mario si Ayahudi kumuuyira Mulungu
Instead we should send a letter telling them only the things they should not do,ela hat'u ha vizho siswi nafuaorere baruwa ya kuambira kukala masirye zhakurya ambazho vidzambozezwa vizuka na masizinge na masirye nyama a kushongolwa kidza masirye mulatso
They should not do any of these things because there are still men in every city who teach the Law of Moses The words of Moses have been read in the synagogue every Sabbath day for many years,Kwani yo Sheria ya Musa be inahubiriwa kahi za kila mudzi kula hangu ho kare na kidza inashomwa kahi za masinagogi kila ifikaho siku ya Sabato
The apostles the elders and the whole church wanted to send some men with Paul and Barnabas to Antioch The group decided to choose some of their own men They chose Judas also called Barsabbas and Silas men who were respected by the believers,Ndo o ahumwi na o azee a kanisa hamwenga na kanisa rosi makiona baha matsagule at'u kahi zao maahume mende ko Anitiokia hamwenga na P'aulo na Barinaba Bai akitsagulwa Juda aifwaye Barisaba na Silasi At'u aa airi were nao ni vilongozi a o ndugu
The group sent the letter with these men The letter said,Makiahuma mende na baruwa ii iambayo vivi
We have heard that some men have come to you from our group What they said troubled and upset you But we did not tell them to do this,Siswi fwapata uvoro kukala kuna at'u fulani mariombola kahi zehu hasiho ruhusa yehu na makidza kuko makidzamubudzya akili kwa gago marigonena
We have all agreed to choose some men and send them to you They will be with our dear friends Barnabas and Paul,Kwa vizho hosini hudzaona ni vidzo fuhume at'u mamudzirire At'u aa fudzaagwizanya na asena ehu airi Barinaba na P'aulo
Barnabas and Paul have given their lives to serve our Lord Jesus Christ,Anaalume aa Barinaba na P'aulo were ma thayari kufwa kwa ut'u wa ro dzina ra Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi
So we have sent Judas and Silas with them They will tell you the same things,Kwa vizho hudzamuhuma Juda na Silasi ambao gaga hugaorago be mandakudzagaelezat'o na milomo yao enye kuko
We agree with the Holy Spirit that you should have no more burdens except for these necessary things,Ye Roho Mweri na siswi be fwaona ni vidzo kutsamuhika mizigo na ut'u wowosi hasihokala gaga machache thu
So Paul Barnabas Judas and Silas left Jerusalem and went to Antioch There they gathered the group of believers together and gave them the letter,Bai at'u ao machambozwa na makitharamuka ko Anitiokia Marihofika kuko marikusanya ro kanisa na makilazha yo baruwa
When the believers read it they were happy The letter comforted them,Bai o at'u marihoishoma madzalwa ni fwahiro kwa kukala vizho virizhokala vidzaorwa mo ndani be were vinaap'a moyo
Judas and Silas who were also prophets said many things to encourage the believers and make them stronger in their faith,Ndo Juda na Silasi mario were ni manabii makinena manji kuap'a moyo na kuangiza nguvu o ndugu
After Judas and Silas stayed there for a while they left They received a blessing of peace from the believers Then they went back to those who had sent them,Bai at'u ao makala kuko wiki za kuthala na badaye makimbozwa ni o ndugu mauye na dheri kwa ao mariokala maahuma
But Silas decided to remain there,Ela Silasi akiona baha aimeime kuko kwandza
But Paul and Barnabas stayed in Antioch They and many others taught the believers and told other people the Good News about the Lord,P'aulo na Barinaba makibaki ko Anitiokia ambako ao hamwenga na andziyao anji mafundisha na kuhubiri neno ra Bwana kuko
A few days later Paul said to Barnabas We should go back to all the towns where we told people the message of the Lord We should visit the believers to see how they are doing,Badaye P'aulo wamwamba Barinaba Hedu nahuuye kahi za yo midzi huriyohubiri neno ra Bwana fukaalole o ndugu chamba manaendereradze
Barnabas wanted to bring John Mark with them too,Vikara Barinaba akikala ahendzazho ni mamuhale Johana Mariko mende osi
But on their first trip John Mark did not continue with them in the work He had left them at Pamphylia So Paul did not think it was a good idea to take him this time,ela P'aulo akizhona mbai mana marihokala P'amufulia ye Johana waaricha o ani P'aulo na k'aenderere nao kahi za yo kazi
Paul and Barnabas had a big argument about this It was so bad that they separated and went different ways Barnabas sailed to Cyprus and took Mark with him,K'uzhona zho mandanenezana hatha matoke Bai Barinaba akimuhala ye Mariko na machangira chomboni kwenda kisiwa cha Kuporo
Paul chose Silas to go with him The believers in Antioch put Paul into the Lords care and sent him out,P'aulo ye akimuhala Silasi akivoyerwa Mulungu ni o ndugu thio makiuka
Paul and Silas went through the countries of Syria and Cilicia helping the churches grow stronger,Bai P'aulo na Silasi makira na Siria na Kilikia kugangiza nguvu go makanisa kuko
Paul went to the city of Derbe and then to Lystra where a follower of Jesus named Timothy lived Timothys mother was a Jewish believer but his father was a Greek,Bai P'aulo akienderera na charoche muhaka Deribe gonya achenda Lusitera Kuko Lusitera ndo kurikotoa mwanafundzi mumwenga aifwaye T'imoth'i Mameye were ni Muyahudi ariyemukuluhira Jesu ela babaye vivi akikala ni Muyunani
The believers in the cities of Lystra and Iconium had only good things to say about him,Iye T'imoth'i were ananenwat'o ni o ndugu mariotoa ko Lusitera na Ikonio
Paul wanted Timothy to travel with him but all the Jews living in that area knew that his father was a Greek So Paul circumcised Timothy to please the Jews,K'uzhona zho P'aulo akihendza amuhale mende osi kwa vizho akimuhala na akimwangiza lwembeni kwa ut'u wa o Ayahudi mariotoa kahi za lalo riro mana were osi manamanya kamare kukala ye babaye T'imoth'i si Muyahudi ela ni Muyunani
Then Paul and those with him traveled through other cities They gave the believers the rules and decisions from the apostles and elders in Jerusalem They told them to obey these rules,Vikara kahi za charo chao makira kahi za mudzi uno na mudzi urya kuap'a o at'u garyahu malagizo garigokizishwa ni o ahumwi na o azee a kanisa ko Jerusalemu ili magagwire
So the churches were becoming stronger in their faith and the number of believers was growing every day,Kwa vizho go makanisa gachangizwa nguvu kahi za kuluhiro na wo murongo wao uchangezeka kila siku
Paul and those with him went through the areas of Phrygia and Galatia because the Holy Spirit did not allow them to tell the Good News in the province of Asia,H'aya P'aulo na o andziye makira na jimbo ra Furugia na jimbo ra Galatia mana Roho Mweri waakahaza masihubiri ro neno kahi za jimbo ra Asia
When they reached the border of Mysia they tried to go on into Bithynia but the Spirit of Jesus did not let them go there,Ndoo vivii hatha manafika hehi na Misia makijeza kwenda Bith'inia ela iye Roho wa Jesu k'aaruhusire mende bule
So they passed by Mysia and went to the city of Troas,Kwa vizho makikira na Misia na makitharamuka bandari ya T'eroa
That night Paul saw a vision In it a man from Macedonia came to Paul The man stood there and begged Come across to Macedonia and help us,Usiku uwo P'aulo akiona maono akiona mwanamulume wa Mak'edonia aimire na anamubembeleza na kumwamba Vuka udze Mak'edonia ufwavize
After Paul had seen the vision weimmediately prepared to leave for Macedonia We understood that God had called us to tell the Good News to those people,Bai arihokala P'aulo adzaona maono gago fwadziondzola-ondzola na mara mwenga hukiuka kwenda ko Mak'edonia kwa kukala fwamanya kamare kukala Mulungu anafwiha hukaambire wo Uvoro Udzo kuko
We left Troas in a ship and sailed to the island of Samothrace The next day we sailed to the city of Neapolis,Kwa vizho fuchangira chomboni kula ho T'eroa na fukifururiza mwenga kwa mwenga muhaka kisiwa cha Samoth'irake na siku ya hiriye fuchangira bandari ya Neapoli
Then we went to Philippi a Roman colony and the leading city in that part of Macedonia We stayed there for a few days,Furihouka Neapoli fwakwenda na magulu muhaka Filipi Mudzi uu were ndo wa kwandza kahi za jimbo riro ra Mak'edonia Mudzi uu were waakwa ni Arumi nao were ndo anji mumo Bai fukikala kuko siku za kuthala
On the Sabbath day we went out the city gate to the river There we thought we might find a special place for prayer Some women had gathered there so we sat down and talked with them,Na siku ya Sabato irihofika fwawombola wo mudzi na fuchenda hat'u muhoni kumala haryahu hat'u ambaho Ayahudi ni kuthunganana makavoya Bai hurihohapata fwakeresi na hukikwatya kunena wo Uvoro Udzo wa Mulungu na o anaache mariokala madzire haho mavoyoni
There was a woman there named Lydia from the city of Thyatira Her job was selling purple cloth She was a worshiper of the true God Lydia was listening to Paul and the Lord opened her heart to accept what Paul was saying,Kahi za ao mariokala haho kusirikiza were ni mwanamuche mumwenga aifwaye Lidia wa kula mudzi uifwao Thiyatira Lidia were ana biashara ya kuguza vithambaa zha zambarau naye were ni mut'u amuvoyaye Mulungu K'uzhona zho Bwana akimuvugula moyowe ili akubali garyahu garigokala gananenwa ni P'aulo
She and all the people living in her house were baptized Then she invited us into her home She said If you think I am a true believer in the Lord Jesus come stay in my house She persuaded us to stay with her,Badaye iye na nyumbaye marihokala madzabat'izwa wahusitira akiamba Chamba munaona kukala mimi ninamwamini Bwana jeri be zho zha mu kuku hindeni mukakale kwangu Na lola be akihusitira zhomu sana hatha fukiona baha fwende fukakale ko kwakwe
One day we were going to the place for prayer and a servant girl met us She had a spiritin her that gave her the power to tell what would happen in the future By doing this she earned a lot of money for the men who owned her,Bai siku mwenga hurihokala hunenda haryahu hat'u ha kuvoya fwathungana musichana mumwenga wa kitumwa ariyekala ana p'ep'o ariyemuhendya atabiri maut'u gandigoakalira at'u mbereni Naye were anaangizira p'esa nyinji ao abomue
She started following Paul and the rest of us around She kept shouting These men are servants of the Most High God They are telling you how you can be saved,Musichana yuyu wakala akimuthuwa-thuwa P'aulo na siswi angine na kupiga k'ululu na kuamba At'u alume aa be ni ahumiki a Mulungu ariye dzulu ya zhosi nao manamwambiriza ninwi ngira ya kumwakola
She continued doing this for many days This bothered Paul so he turned and said to the spirit By the power of Jesus Christ I command you to come out of her Immediately the spirit came out,Na ut'u uu be ye musichana wauthuwa-thuwa siku nyinji zenye hatha P'aulo vikimusinya Ndo siku mwenga P'aulo akimugalukira na akimwamba ye p'ep'o H'aya kwa dzina ra Jesu Masihi mwambole kare be vivi Na haho henye ye p'ep'o akimwambola ye musichana
When the men who owned the servant girl saw this they realized that they could no longer use her to make money So they grabbed Paul and Silas and dragged them to the public square to meet with the authorities,Bai aryahu abomue yuyahu musichana marihoona kukala cho maricho were madzakikuluhira kiangizire p'esa k'akiho kaheri mamugwira P'aulo na Silasi na makiavurura muhaka kwa vilongozi a wo mudzi
They brought Paul and Silas before the Roman officials and said These men are Jews and they are making trouble in our city,Makiaika mbere za o abomu na makiamba At'u alume aa ni Ayahudi na manareha fujo kahi za mudzi wehu
They are telling people to do things that are not right for us as Romans to do,kwa kufundisha maadha garigo k'avidimikika siswi Arumi kugagwira na kugathuwa
The whole crowd turned against Paul and Silas The officials tore the clothes off both men and ordered that they be beaten with rods,Bai ro kundi ra at'u rikidzangiza mo h'uwoh'uwoni na makiaheha o ani P'aulo na Silasi na maneno Aryahu abomu makitharura-tharura zo nguwo za ani P'aulo na makilagiza matandikwe
They were beaten severely and thrown into jail The officials told the jailer Guard them very carefully,Vikara marihogonya kutandikwa mahalwa na makitsufwa jela na iye shikari wa mo jela akilagizwa kwamba ahakikishe k'amachimbirire
When the jailer heard this special order he put Paul and Silas far inside the jail and bound their feet between large blocks of wood,K'uzhona zho ye shikari jela arihombirwa gaga waahala o ani P'aulo na akiangiza kahi za chumba cha ndani mumo jela na akihala go magulu gao akigafunga gogoni
About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing songs to God The other prisoners were listening to them,Bai urihofika usiku ukulu P'aulo na Silasi makala manavoya na kumuimbira maira Mulungu na aryahu afungwa angine makikala madzahega masikiro kuasirikiza
Suddenly there was an earthquake so strong that it shook the foundation of the jail All the doors of the jail opened and the chains on all the prisoners fell off,K'uzhona zho haho henye yo ts'i ikithethema ut'u wa kwangalaza hatha wo musinji wa iyo jela ukithukuka Haho henye kimoho moho yo miryango yosi ikisunduka ngh'aa na kila mut'u yo minyororo ikimuvuguka
The jailer woke up and saw that the jail doors were open He thought that the prisoners had already escaped so he got his sword and was ready to kill himself,Bai ye shikari jela akivumbuluka k'uzhona zho kuyona yo miryango i wazi akihala wo mushuwe na akikala anamala kudzalaga mana waona nikwenda o afungwa madzachimbira
But Paul shouted Dont hurt yourself We are all here,Ela P'aulo arihoona vizho wapiga k'ululu akiamba Hatha bule sidzalage Hosini huchere mumu
The jailer told someone to bring a light Then he ran inside and shaking with fear fell down in front of Paul and Silas,Ndo ye shikari jela akilagiza kurefwe mataa Garihokudza akingira malo mo ndani ya jela na akidzigwaga mbere za P'aulo na Silasi kuno be anavinwa ni mwiri jeri-jeri
Then he brought them outside and said Men what must I do to be saved,Bai akiahala akiamboza ko ndze na akiauza akiamba Nihendedze athumia mino hatha niokoke
They said to him Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be savedyou and all who live in your house,Makimudzigidzya makimwamba Mukuluhire Bwana Jesu nawe undaokolwa uwe hamwenga na nyumbayo
So Paul and Silas told the message of the Lord to the jailer and all the people who lived in his house,Gonya makimwambiriza Uvoro Udzo wa Mulungu iye na osini mariokala mo nyumbani
It was late at night but the jailer took Paul and Silas and washed their wounds Then the jailer and all his people were baptized,Bai ye shikari jela akiamboza na uwo usiku na akiagesa go maranga gao na k'avitoere akibat'izwa iye hamwenga na o adamue osi
After this the jailer took Paul and Silas home and gave them some food All the people were very happy because they now believed in God,Gonya ye shikari achenda nao nyumbani kwakwe na achendaambozera chakurya nao mudzi muzima makikala mana raha kwa kukala vikara were manamukuluhira Mulungu
The next morning the Roman officials sent some soldiers to tell the jailer Let these men go free,Bai kurihocha aryahu abomu a Kirumi mahuma maofisaa ga kwao gende ko jela makamwambe ye shikari wa jela vivi Avugule ao at'u mende
The jailer said to Paul The officials have sent these soldiers to let you go free You can leave now Go in peace,Ndo ye shikari wa jela akimwamba P'aulo O abomu madzaamba kukala uwe na Silasi muvugulwe mwende H'aya bai mbolani mwende na dheri
But Paul said to the soldiers Those officials did not prove that we did anything wrong but they beat us in public and put us in jail And we are Roman citizensNow they want us to go away quietly No they must come here themselves and lead us out,Ela P'aulo akiambira o maofisaa akiamba Mahupiga mbere za at'u hasiho hatha kunenwa yo k'esi idzaho siswi hu at'u a Kirumi Mahuhala na makihusindikira jela vino ati manamala kufwamboza kisiri-siri Hatha bule ni madze enye madze mafwamboze ndze
The soldiers told the officials what Paul said When they heard that Paul and Silas were Roman citizens they were afraid,K'uzhona zho o maofisaa machenda na machendaambira o abomu gago garigokala gadzanenwa ni P'aulo Marihosikira kukala ao ani P'aulo ni at'u a Kirumi makihondoka
So they came and told them they were sorry They led them out of the jail and asked them to leave the city,Bai makidza na makidzaavoya musamaha ndo makiamboza mo jela na makiambira mawombole wo mudzi
But when Paul and Silas came out of the jail they went to Lydias house They saw some of the believers there and encouraged them Then they left,K'uzhona zho P'aulo na Silasi marihombola mo jela makwenda muhaka nyumbani kwa Lidia na kuko makithunganana na o ndugu na makiap'a moyo gonya thio makiuka
Paul and Silas traveled through the cities of Amphipolis and Apollonia They came to the city of Thessalonica where there was a Jewish synagogue,Bai kahi za charo chao P'aulo na Silasi makira na Amufipoli na Apolonia muhaka mudzi wa Th'esalonike ambako were kuna sinagogi ra Kiyahudi
Paul went into the synagogue to see the Jews as he always did The next three weeks on each Sabbath day he discussed the Scriptures with them,Vikara P'aulo achenda mo sinagogini here garizhokala mazowerage Bai akisumurira na o at'u dzulu za go Maoro kila siku ya Sabato muhaka Sabato t'ahu pu
He explained the Scriptures to show them that the Messiah had to die and then rise from death He said This Jesus that I am telling you about is the Messiah,Kahi za siku zizi za Sabato wakala akiaeleza o at'u na kuanyesa kukala ye Masihi were k'ana budhi apate thabu na afufuke kula kifwani P'aulo waamba vivi Yuyu Jesu nimwambiraye be nde iye Masihi
Some of the Jews there believed Paul and Silas and decided to join them Also a large number of Greeks who were worshipers of the true God and many important women joined them,Kusikira vizho angine kahi zao mashawishika na makigwirana na ao ani P'aulo na Silasi na Ayunani anji enye mamwagohao Mulungu na anaache anji mario mana nguma mbidzo kahi za wo mudzi nao dzazho makikuluhira
But the Jews who did not believe became jealous so they got some bad men from around the city center to make trouble They formed a mob and caused a riot in the city They went to Jasons house looking for Paul and Silas They wanted to bring them out before the people,Ela aryahu Ayahudi machangirwa ni wivu na machenda mo masokoni-masokoni na machendaaunga-unga aryahu at'u akora-akora na makiunda kakundi na makikwatya kuhenda fujo mo mudzini Machenda malo muhaka nyumbani kwa mut'u mumwenga aifwaye Jasoni kumumala P'aulo na Silasi maarehe mbere za ro kundi ra at'u
When they did not find them they dragged Jason and some of the other believers to the city leaders The people shouted These men have made trouble everywhere in the world and now they have come here too,Ela marihofika ko kwa Jasoni k'amaaonere bule k'uzhona zho mandamuvurura Jasoni hamwenga na ndugu angine muhaka mbere za o abomu a wo mudzi kuno be manapiga k'ululu na kuamba O at'u alume madziotholathola yo dhunia be madzire haha
Jason is keeping them in his house They all do things against the laws of Caesar They say there is another king called Jesus,na Jasoni akaakaribisha ko kwakwe nyumbani At'u alume aa osi be manazibanda zosi zo sheria za Kaisari kwa kuamba ati kuna muthawali mungine aifwaye Jesu
When the city leaders and the other people heard this they became very upset,Ro kundi ra at'u na o maofisaa a wo mudzi kusikira vizho makibudzyika jeri-jeri
They made Jason and the other believers deposit money to guarantee that there would be no more trouble Then they let them go,Bai o maofisaa makimwamba Jasoni na o andziye mamboze bondi marihomboza makiarichiza machenda
That same night the believers sent Paul and Silas to another city named Berea When they arrived there they went to the Jewish synagogue,Bai usiku uwo o ndugu mamuhala P'aulo na Silasi makiamboza machenda Beroya Vikara marihofika ko Beroya makwenda kahi za sinagogi ra Kiyahudi
The people in Berea were more openminded than those in Thessalonica They were so glad to hear the message Paul told them They studied the Scriptures every day to make sure that what they heard was really true,Aryahu Ayahudi a Beroya were ni asikizi hatha kushinda aryahu a Th'esalonike At'u a Beroya marihosikira wo Uvoro Udzo be mauhokera kwa hamu sana na kidza kila siku makikala manashoma go Maoro mahakikishe chamba go arigonena P'aulo ni ga jeri
The result was that many of them believed including many important Greek women and men,Bai anji kahi za o Ayahudi makuluhira na angine mariokuluhira ni anaache a Kiyunani mario na nguma na at'u anji angine alume
But when the Jews in Thessalonica learned that Paul was telling people Gods message in Berea they came there too They upset the people and made trouble,Ela aryahu Ayahudi a ko Th'esalonike marihopata kawee kukala P'aulo anahubiri neno ra Mulungu ko Beroya kuko nako makikuzhoga na machendalunga kundi ra at'u na makikala ma thayari kugwaga rabusha kuko
So the believers immediately sent Paul away to the coast but Silas and Timothy stayed in Berea,Aryahu ndugu marihoona kit'u kicho mamuhala P'aulo mara mwenga na makimwamboza achenda p'wani Silasi na T'imoth'i o makisala ko Beroya
Those who went with Paul took him to the city of Athens They returned with a message for Silas and Timothy to come and join him as soon as they could,Vikara aryahu at'u mariokwenda na P'aulo makwenda naye vivii muhaka mudzi wa Athene Marihokala manauya P'aulo waahuma madze maambire Silasi na T'imoth'i masitoe magwirane kuko Athene
While Paul was waiting for Silas and Timothy in Athens he was upset because he saw that the city was full of idols,Bai P'aulo arihokala a kuko kuathariza ani Silasi na T'imoth'i waona wo mudzi wosi be u thele milungu ya vizuka ut'u uu be wamushononesa sana
In the synagogue he talked with the Jews and with the Greeks who were worshipers of the true God He also went to the public square every day and talked with everyone who came by,Kwa vizho kila siku wakala akisumurira na o Ayahudi na aryahu Ayunani mamwagohao Mulungu kahi za sinagogi na kidza akisumurira na o at'u arioaona mo masokoni
Some of the Epicurean and some of the Stoic philosophers argued with him,Ndo kuchambola alachu angine a chama cha Epikuriona chama cha Sitoikomakikwatya kunenezana na P'aulo Angine kahi zao mauza makiamba Ananenani yuno muhayihayi Angine o makiamba Vinanyesa yuyu mut'u anafundisha dzulu za milungu mijeni Nao manena vivi kwa kukala P'aulo were anahubiri dzulu za Jesu na dzulu za kufufukakwe
They took Paul to a meeting of the Areopagus council They said Please explain to us this new idea that you have been teaching,Bai makimuhala hatha kirima cha Areopago Marihofika kuko makimwamba H'aya fwambire vikara hunamala fumanye dzulu za gaga mafundisho masha ufundishago
The things you are saying are new to us We have never heard this teaching before and we want to know what it means,Mana fudzakusikira unafundisha maut'u masha uwe naswi be hunamala humanye yo mana ya gago mafundisho gago
The people of Athens and the foreigners who lived there spent all their time either telling or listening to all the latest ideas,O at'u osi a Athene na o ajeni mariokala manakala kuko were k'amana rorosi mahendaro hasihokala kukeresi na kusumurira na kunena dzulu za maut'u masha-masha
Then Paul stood up before the meeting of the Areopagus council and said Men of Athens everything I see here tells me you are very religious,Bai P'aulo akiungarara kahikahi za wo muthunganano ho Areopago na akiamba Nwi at'u a Athene At'u ninwi ninamona kukala munathuwa dini t'ot'ot'o sana kwa kila upande
I was going through your city and I saw the things you worship I found an altar that had these words written on it,Ela nirihotsembera na kuvilolat'o zho muvivoyazho be naona kijaja kimwenga chenye maoro gaga KWA MULUNGU ASIYEMANYIKANA Vikara iye muriyemunamuvoya na kuno k'amumumanya be nde ariye ninamala nimwambirize
He is the God who made the whole world and everything in it He is the Lord of the land and the sky He does not live in temples built by human hands,Iye Mulungu ariyeumba urumwengu na zhosi virizho mumo urumwenguni be nde Bwana wa mulunguni na ts'i naye be k'aishi kahi za mahekalu garigoakwa ni binadamu
He is the one who gives people life breath and everything else they need He does not need any help from them He has everything he needs,Na k'ahumikirwa ni binadamu dza here kwamba anatsowa kit'u kwa kukala iye nde amugeraye kila mudamu p'umuzi na kumuhendya adime kusoha na nde mulazhi wa vit'u vingine zhosi
God began by making one man and from him he made all the different people who live everywhere in the world He decided exactly when and where they would live,Mulungu waumba makabila gosi ga at'u kula kwa mudamu mumwenga naye waumba makabila gaga gosi ili gadime kutoa kahi za urumwengu wosi Na iye mwenye wapanga kare zo siku mandizoishi na ho hat'u mandihokala
God wanted people to look for him and perhaps in searching all around for him they would find him But he is not far from any of us,Mulungu waaumba o anadamu ili madime kumumala na hangine mamufikire na mamone kwandza hatha k'akure na kila mumwenga wehu Dza here aimbi enu angine marizhonena na kuamba
It is through him that we are able to live to do what we do and to be who we are As your own poets have said We all come from him,Iye nde ahuhendaye hukaishi na hukanenda na hukakala Na pia aimbi angine maamba Siswi hu anae
Thats right We all come from God So you must not think that he is like something people imagine or make He is not made of gold silver or stone,H'aya bai kwa kukala hu ana a Mulungu k'avivirya huone kukala ye Mulungu be a dza here sanamu ya dhahabu hedu ya fedha hedu ya iwe ambazho ni vit'u vitengezwazho kwa kuhumira akili ya mudamu
In the past people did not understand God and he overlooked this But now he is telling everyone in the world to change and turn to him,Bai haho kapindi makathi ga kutsamanya hatha vivi ye Mulungu wathuwa kumuricha mudamu ahende zho ahendzazho ela vivi bai anaamuru kukala at'u osi kila hat'u mathubu
He has decided on a day when he will judge all the people in the world in a way that is fair To do this he will use a man he chose long ago And he has proved to everyone that this is the man to do it He proved it by raising him from death,Kwani iye ana siku adziyoyika ambaho andakudzahukumu wo urumwengu muzima kwa ngira ya hachi na andahenda vizho kukirira na iye mut'u ariyemutsagula Iye Mulungu adzawanyesa ut'u uu lwazu kwa kumufufula iye mut'u kula kifwani
When the people heard about Jesus being raised from death some of them laughed But others said We will hear more about this from you later,Bai o at'u marihosikira uvoro dzulu za kufufuka angine kahi zao mahagwaga kitseko ela angine o makiamba Hundakwiha kaheri udze ufwambire dzulu za kit'u kiki
So Paul left the council meeting,Ndo P'aulo akiuka ho muthungananoni
But some of the people joined with Paul and became believers Among these were Dionysius a member of the Areopagus council a woman named Damaris and some others,Bai angine makikuluhira na makiungana naye Kahi za at'u ao mariokuluhira were ni Dionisio mufuasi wa o at'u mariokala makithunganana ho Areopago na mwanamuche mumwenga aifwaye Damarisi na angine-angine
Later Paul left Athens and went to the city of Corinth,Bada ya kunena na o at'u ho Areopago P'aulo wauka ko Athene na achenda Korintho
There he met a Jewish man named Aquila who was born in the country of Pontus But he and his wife Priscilla had recently moved to Corinth from Italy They left Italy because Claudius had given an order for all Jews to leave Rome Paul went to visit Aquila and Priscilla,Kuko Korintho akithunganana na Muyahudi mumwenga aifwaye Akw'ila Mut'u yuyu Akw'ila wazhalwa P'onito na mo Athene were wakudza dzuzi-dzuzi iye na muchewe aifwaye P'urisila nao were mambola Italiya mana were Kilaudio muthawali mubomu wa Kirumi wamboza amulo kukala o Ayahudi osi makwambole ko Rumi Bai P'aulo achenda ili makaonane
They were tentmakers the same as Paul so he stayed with them and worked with them,Marihoonana P'aulo watoa hamwenga nao na makihenda kazi ya kutengeza mahema osini mana P'aulo were ni fundhi wa mahema dza here o ani P'urisila na Akw'ila
Every Sabbath day Paul went to the synagogue and talked with both Jews and Greeks trying to persuade them to believe in Jesus,Kidza P'aulo wakala akisumurira na Ayahudi na Ayunani kahi za sinagogi kila siku ya Sabato kujeza kuavuha
But after Silas and Timothy came from Macedonia Paul spent all his time telling Gods message to the Jews trying to convince them that Jesus is the Messiah,Vikara Silasi na T'imoth'i marihokudza kula Mak'edonia P'aulo wakala akihumira wakathiwe wosi kuhubiri na kumboza ushahidhi kwa o Ayahudi kukala ye Jesu be nde iye Masihi
But they disagreed with what Paul was teaching and started insulting him So Paul shook the dust from his clothesHe said to them If you are not saved it will be your own fault I have done all I can do After this I will go only to the nonJewish people,Ela aryahu Ayahudi marihomukanaiza P'aulo na kumuhukana-hukana iye P'aulo wahala zo nguwoze akizikut'a-kut'a kunyesa kukala mandamanya enye akiamba Mundamanya enye muchangamika mut'u mimi be simo H'aya kula vivi be ninenda kwa aryahu at'u mario si Ayahudi
Paul left the synagogue and moved into the home of Titius Justus a man who was a worshiper of the true God His house was next to the synagogue,P'aulo achambola mo sinagogini na achenda nyumbani kwa mut'u mumwenga aifwaye Titio Jusito ambaye ni mut'u ariyekala akimuvoya Mulungu Nyumbaye mut'u yuyu yere i hehi na ro sinagogi
Crispus was the leader of that synagogue He and all the people living in his house believed in the Lord Jesus Many other people in Corinth also listened to Paul They too believed and were baptized,Bai mubomu mumwenga wa ro sinagogi aifwaye K'irisipo wamukuluhira Bwana Jesu iye hamwenga na nyumbaye na kidza Akorintho anji marihomusikira P'aulo makuluhira na makibat'izwa
During the night Paul had a vision The Lord said to him Dont be afraid and dont stop talking to people,K'uzhona zho usiku mumwenga Bwana akinena na P'aulo kahi za maono akiamba Sogohe bule enderera kufundisha at'u thuwe usinyamale bule
I am with you and no one will be able to hurt you Many of my people are in this city,Mimi ni hamwenga nawe na k'ahana mut'u yoyosi andiyekuvamia kukuhenda ut'u wowosi uwi kwa kukala kahi za mudzi uu be nina at'u a kwangu anji enye
Paul stayed there for a year and a half teaching Gods message to the people,Kwa vizho P'aulo akikala ko Korintho kwa muda wa mwaka mumwenga na nusu kuafundisha o at'u neno ra Mulungu
During the time that Gallio was the governor of Achaia some of the Jews came together against Paul They took him to court,Vikara wakathi Galio arihokala luwali wa jimbo ra Akaia Ayahudi angine maungana na machendamugwira P'aulo makidza naye kotini
They said to Gallio This man is teaching people to worship God in a way that is against our law,Makiamba Mut'u yuyu anajeza kuavuha at'u ili mamuvoye Mulungu kahi za ngira ambazo be zi kinyume na sheria yehu
Paul was ready to say something but Gallio spoke to the Jews He said I would listen to you if your complaint was about a crime or other wrong,Bai P'aulo arihokala anamala kuvugula mulomo anene Galio wamukirira mbere na akiambira o Ayahudi akiamba Kalaho ut'u uu muambawo be ni dzulu za kihendo kii hedu uthiriri fulani be ningere sina budhi kumusirikiza
But it is only about words and namesarguments about your own law So you must solve this problem yourselves I dont want to be a judge of these matters,Ela kwa kukala maut'u gaga ganahusu madzina na maneno genu na sheria yenu enye be sindatosa maut'u gago hatha be gabambanyeni enye
So Gallio made them leave the court,Kwa vizho akiainga mo kotini
Then they all grabbed Sosthenes the leader of the synagogue They beat him before the court But this did not bother Gallio,Ndo osi makimugwavukira Sosithene mubomu wa sinagogi makimutandika mbere za yo koti ela Galio k'avirungire
Paul stayed with the believers for many days Then he left and sailed for Syria Priscilla and Aquila were also with him At Cenchrea Paul cut off his hairbecause he had made a promise to God,Bai P'aulo wakala ko Korintho siku za kuthala gonya akilagana na o ndugu na achangira chomboni akikwatya kwenda Siria iye hamwenga na P'urisila na Akw'ila Ela bai kabila k'adzauka wahala zo nyereze akizinyolako K'enikirea mana were wapiga hathi kwa Mulungu
Then they went to the city of Ephesus where Paul left Priscilla and Aquila While Paul was in Ephesus he went into the synagogue and talked with the Jews,H'aya nao ndoo vivii muhaka Efeso kuko akiaricha o ani P'urisila na Akw'ila Bai iye P'aulo achenda kahi za sinagogi na akisumurira na o Ayahudi
They asked him to stay longer but he refused,Badaye o Ayahudi makimuvoya P'aulo akale hamwenga nao kwa muda ela akikahala
He left them and said I will come back to you again if God wants me to And so he sailed away from Ephesus,Ela hatha vizho arihokala akuukani waalaga akiamba Nindauya kaheri Mulungu ahendzaho Ndo achangira chomboni akiuka ko Efeso
When Paul arrived at Caesarea he went to Jerusalem and visited the church there After that he went to Antioch,Bai ndeye vivii hatha akifika Kaisaria arihofika kuko wambuka Jerusalemu kwendalamusa ro kanisa gonya akitharamuka Anitiokia
Paul stayed in Antioch for a while Then he left there and went through the countries of Galatia and Phrygia He traveled from town to town in these countries helping all the followers of Jesus grow stronger in their faith,Kuko Anitiokia wakala kwa muda gonya akikulaa na achenda kuno na kuno kahi za jimbo ra Galatia na Furugia kuap'a moyo o anafundzi
A Jew named Apollos came to Ephesus Born in the city of Alexandria he was an educated man who knew the Scriptures well,Vikara kahi za wakathi uwo Muyahudi mumwenga aifwaye Apolo ambaye wazhalwa Alekizandiria wazhoga mo Efeso Mut'u yuyu were anamanya kunena na kidza were anamanya Maoro t'ot'ot'o sana
He had been taught about the Lord and was always excitedto talk to people about Jesus What he taught was right but the only baptism he knew about was the baptism that John taught,Visithoshe were wafundishwa kahi za ngira ya Bwana Jesu naye were akinena be ananena na nguvuze zosi na were akifundisha anafundisha karakara dzulu za Jesu ela were anamanya ubat'izo wa Johana thu h'akeye
Apollos began to speak very boldly in the synagogue When Priscilla and Aquila heard him speak they took him to their home and helped him understand the way of God better,Bai Apolo akikwatya kunena kahi za ro sinagogi hasiho woga K'uzhona zho P'urisila na Akw'ila marihomusikira mamuhala machenda naye nyumbani kwao na machendamugunulira yo ngira ya Mulungu t'ot'ot'o zaidhi
Apollos wanted to go to Achaia So the believers in Ephesus helped him They wrote a letter to the Lords followers in Achaia and asked them to accept Apollos When he arrived there he was a great help to those who had believed in Jesus because of Gods grace,Wakathi arihokala anamala kuvuka ende Akaia o ndugu ko Efeso mamup'a moyo na makimugwiza baruwa akaap'e o anafundzi kuko ili mamukaribishe kuko Akaia Bai arihofika kuko waaviza sana o at'u mariokala makuluhira kwa kukirira kwa zo mbazi za Mulungu
He argued very strongly against the Jews before all the people He clearly proved that the Jews were wrong He used the Scriptures and showed that Jesus is the Messiah,kwani mut'u iye waadhima o Ayahudi na manenoge mbere za at'u waanyesa kwa kuhumira Maoro kukala ye Jesu be nde iye Masihi
While Apollos was in the city of Corinth Paul was visiting some places on his way to Ephesus In Ephesus he found some other followers of the Lord,Vikara wakathi arihokala ye Apolo a ko Korintho P'aulo wagwira ngira ya ndani-ndani muhaka ko mudzi wa Efeso Bai kuko Efeso wathekeza anafundzi kuko
He asked them Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed,na akiauza akiamba Vidze mwamuhokera Roho Mweri wakathi murihomukuluhira Jesu Makidzigidzya makiamba Hatha Mwandzo tha zho zha kuna kit'u kiifwacho Roho mweri k'afudzavisikira
Paul asked them So what kind of baptism did you have,Ndo P'aulo akiauza akiamba Vikara ndo fuambe mwahokera ubat'izo hiwo Makidzigidzya makiamba At'u siswi fwahokera ubat'izo wa Johana siswi
Paul said John told people to be baptized to show they wanted to change their lives He told people to believe in the one who would come after him and that one is Jesus,P'aulo akiamba Uryahu ubat'izo wa Johana h'e were ni ubat'izo wa kuthubu Iye Johana waambira at'u mamukuluhire iye ariyekala andakudza nyumaze ambaye ni Jesu
When these followers heard this they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus,Bai o at'u marihosikira vizho mabat'izwa kwa dzina ra Bwana Jesu
Then Paul laid his hands on them and the Holy Spirit came on them They began speaking different languages and prophesying,P'aulo arihoaikira mikono makihokera Roho mweri na makinena na luga na makinena ga Mulungu
There were about twelve men in this group,At'u aa were manafika alume kumi na airi
Paul went into the synagogue and spoke very boldly He continued doing this for three months He talked with the Jews trying to persuade them to accept what he was telling them about Gods kingdom,Bai P'aulo wakala achangira kahi za sinagogi na kunena lwazu-lwazu hasiho woga naye wahenda vivi kwa muda wa miezi mihahu Wanena na o at'u na kuashawishi dzulu za uthawali wa Mulungu
But some of them became stubborn and refused to believe In front of everyone they said bad things about the Way So Paul left these Jews and took the Lords followers with him He went to a place where a man named Tyrannus had a school There Paul talked with people every day,Ela hatha vizho angine kahi za o at'u mahenda singo nyomu makahala kukuluhira na makinena mai dzulu za yo ngira ya Jesu lwazu-lwazu Kwa vizho P'aulo akiaricha na akiahala o anafundzi na achenda kahi za sikuli ya T'irano na kuko akikala kaziye ni kusumurira na at'u kila siku
He did this for two years Because of this work everyone in Asia Jews and Greeks heard the word of the Lord,Naye P'aulo be ut'u uu wauthuwa-thuwa hatha miaka miri pu bai o Ayahudi osi na Ayunani mariotoa kahi za jimbo ra Asia marisikira ro neno ra Bwana Jesu
God used Paul to do some very special miracles,Mulungu wahenda maut'u manji ga kwangalaza kukirira kwa P'aulo
Some people carried away handkerchiefs and clothes that Paul had used and put them on those who were sick The sick people were healed and evil spirits left them,Hatha vithambaa zhenye na mikumbuu ya mwirini mwakwe yahalwa ikihirikirwa akongo nao makihozwa go makongo gao na o p'ep'o makiambola
But one time an evil spirit said to these Jews I know Jesus and I know about Paul but who are you,Bai marihohenda kit'u kicho ye p'ep'o wadzigidzya akiamba Ye Jesu namumanya na P'aulo naye namumanya h'aya nwi nanwi mu ano h'ani
Then the man who had the evil spirit inside him jumped on these Jews He was much stronger than all of them He beat them up and tore their clothes off They all ran away from that house,Gonya ye mut'u mwenye p'ep'o akiathulukira na akiadhima nguvu osi akiahenda kazi hatha manapata mwanya wa kuchimbira milatso ni voo kuno mahuhu renye
All the people in Ephesus Jews and Greeks learned about this They were all filled with fear and gave great honor to the Lord Jesus,Bai o Ayahudi na Ayunani matoao Efeso marihovipata p'eho vivi madzalwa ni woga osi na ro dzina ra Bwana Jesu rikilikwa jeri-jeri
Many of the believers began to confess telling about all the evil things they had done,Bai at'u anji kahi za o mariokuluhira makudzasema go mahendo gao mai lwazu-lwazu
Some of them had used magic These believers brought their magic books and burned them before everyone These books were worth about 50000 silver coins,Anji kahi za aryahu mariokala manathuwa maut'u ga utsai mareha go mabuk'u gao ga utsai makigakundzumanya hamwenga makigaocha at'u manalola Bai marihopiga isabu ya cho kima cha mabuk'u gago mapata kukala gana kima cha vipande alifu mirongo mitsano zha fedha
This is how the word of the Lord was spreading in a powerful way causing more and more people to believe,Kwa ut'u uwo ro neno ra Bwana Jesu ratsamuka kila hat'u na rikikaza kuhenda nguvu
After this Paul made plans to go to Jerusalem He planned to go through the regions of Macedonia and Achaia and then go to Jerusalem He thought After I visit Jerusalem I must also visit Rome,Bada ya maut'u gaga kukala P'aulo wakat'a shauri kwenda Jerusalemu kukirira Mak'edonia na Akaia Akiamba Nindihofika kuko vindanibidhi kwa zho zhosi nizhoge Rumi nako
Timothy and Erastus were two of his helpers Paul sent them ahead to Macedonia But he stayed in Asia for a while,Bai akiahala at'u airi kahi za avizi a kwakwe na akiahuma ko Mak'edonia At'u aa were ni T'imoth'i na Erasito Ye P'aulo mwenye akisala kahi za ro jimbo ra Asia vichache
But during that time there was some trouble in Ephesus about the Way This is how it all happened,Bai kahi za wakathi uwo-uwo kwahenda h'uwoh'uwo ko Efeso dzulu za yo Ngira ya Jesu
There was a man named Demetrius He worked with silver He made little silver models that looked like the temple of the goddess Artemis The men who did this work made a lot of money,Were kuna musanyi mumwenga wa fedha aifwaye Demetirio Mut'u yuyu Demetirio wakala akisanya sanamu za fedha zirizohalana na Hekalu ra mulungu muche aifwaye Aritemi naye wakala akiangizira faidha sana o mafundhi
Demetrius had a meeting with these men and some others who did the same kind of work He told them Men you know that we make a lot of money from our business,Kwa vizho akiakundzumanya hamwenga o mafundhi hamwenga na at'u angine mariokala mana kazi dza zizo akiamba Asena ninwi munamanya kukala kazi ii inahup'a mapato madzo genye
But look at what this man Paul is doing Listen to what he is saying He has convinced many people in Ephesus and all over Asia to change their religion He says the gods that people make by hand are not real,Na vikara amba munaona na munasikira vino yuno bwana aifwaye P'aulo arizho anaavuha at'u anji a Efeso na kuagaluza kwa kuambira kukala milungu ya kuhenda kutengezwa ni at'u si milungu bule Na ut'u uu k'auhenda haha Efeso h'akeye anauhenda kahi za jimbo rosi ra Asia
Im afraid this is going to turn people against our business But there is also another problem People will begin to think that the temple of the great goddess Artemis is not important Her greatness will be destroyed And Artemis is the goddess that everyone in Asia and the whole world worships,Vikara hathari iriyo haho ni kwamba yo kazi yehu indavudhywa Hiri hekalu ra mulungu mubomu wehu wa kiche be k'arindaonewa kit'u bule na hatha ye mwenye naye dzazho Aritemi anavoywa kila hat'u kahi za jimbo ra Asia na kahi za urumwengu muzima bai kit'u kiki kindahenda ahokwe yo ishimaye
When the men heard this they became very angry They shouted Great is Artemis the goddess of Ephesus,Bai ro kundi ra mafundhi ririhosikira vizho ratsukirwa vii-vii na rikikwatya kupiga k'ululu na kuamba Aritemi wa Aefeso nde mubomu
The whole city was thrown into confusion The people grabbed Gaius and Aristarchus men from Macedonia who were traveling with Paul and rushed all together into the stadium,Na lola k'avitoere kila mut'u kahi za wo mudzi akikala ni h'uwoh'uwo thu Bai o at'u marihokala makwendani maagwira anaalume airi Gayo na Arisitariko na machenda nao malo muhaka kahi za wo uwanja mubomu wa mikut'ano At'u aa Gayo na Arisitariko were ni at'u a Mak'edonia mariokala manasafiri na P'aulo
Paul wanted to go in and talk to the people but the Lords followers did not let him go,H'aya P'aulo naye akikala anamala kwangira mo kundini ajeze kusumurira na o at'u ela aryahu anafundzi makimukahaza
Also some leaders of the country who were friends of Paul sent him a message telling him not to go into the stadium,Angine kahi za aryahu abomu a ro jimbo ambao were manaeleana na P'aulo mahuma uvoro kwa P'aulo kwendamubembeleza kwamba asithathe kwangira mo uwanjani
Some people were shouting one thing and others were shouting something else The meeting was very confused Most of the people did not know why they had come there,Bai wakathi uwo ro kundi rosi ra at'u rakala ni fujo t'uhu Angine were manaamba vino na arya manaamba vino Anji kahi za o at'u mariokala haho were k'amamanya kala ma haho muthungananoni kwanoni
Some Jews made a man named Alexander stand before the crowd and they told him what to say Alexander waved his hand trying to explain things to the people,Bai o Ayahudi makimugwira mwanamulume mumwenga aifwaye Alekizanda na makimusukuma ho mbere mana angine kahi za ro kundi maona kukala iye nde ariye anahusika Bai ye Alekizanda akiavungira mikono manyamale ili adzihehere
But when the people saw that Alexander was a Jew they all began shouting the same thing For two hours they continued shouting Great is Artemis of Ephesus Great is Artemis of Ephesus Great is Artemis,Ela marihogundua kukala ye Alekizanda ni Muyahudi osi mapiga k'ululu kwa umwenga kwa muda wa here masaa mairi vivi kuno manaamba Aritemi wa Aefeso nde mubomu
Then the city clerk persuaded the people to be quiet He said Men of Ephesus everyone knows that Ephesus is the city that keeps the temple of the great goddess Artemis Everyone knows that we also keep her holy rock,Mwishowe ye karani wa wo mudzi akiambira o at'u manyamale Akiamba Nwi at'u a Efeso Ni h'ani kahi za urumwengu wosi asiyemanya kukala mudzi wa Efeso ndo murindzi wa ro Hekalu ra Aritemi mulungu wehu mubomu Hedu ni h'ani asiyemanya kukala mudzi wa Efeso ndo murindzi wa yo sanamuye iriyohenda kugwa kula mulunguni
No one can deny this so you should be quiet You must stop and think before you do anything else,Bai k'akuna mut'u adimaye kukanaiza maut'u gaga Kwa vizho at'u ninwi h'e hurirani na maut'u gaga sigahalireni maruru
You brought these menhere but they have not said anything bad against our goddess They have not stolen anything from her temple,At'u ninwi mudzaareha haha aa anaalume idzaho k'amaiyire vit'u zha hekaluni hedu hatha kumukufuru mulungu wehu muche
We have courts of law and there are judges Do Demetrius and those men who work with him have a charge against anyone They should go to the courts Let them argue with each other there,Bai chamba Demetirio na o mafundhi andziye mana neno na mut'u yoyosi atungwaye h'aya makoti ga wazi na atosi a maneno nao ma haho na mende makashithaki
Is there something else you want to talk about Then come to the regular town meeting of the people It can be decided there,Ela chamba kuna maut'u mangine zaidhi mumalago h'aya be gago gandabambanywa kahi za mukut'ano wa hilali
I say this because someone might see this trouble today and say we are rioting We could not explain all this trouble because there is no real reason for this meeting,Kwani vivi virizho be fu hatharini hunadima kushithakiwa kwa fujo ii idziyokala rero Fujo ii ya rero be k'aina sababu ya mana na hukishithakiwa be k'ahundadima kuvinenat'o bule
After the city clerk said this he told the people to go home,Bai arihogonya kunena vivi akiubanda wo mukut'ano
After we said goodbye to the elders we sailed away straight to Cos island The next day we went to the island of Rhodes and from there we went to Patara,Bai fukihenda kudzinyothola kwa o azee a kanisa ko Efeso na fuchangira chomboni fukifururiza mwenga kwa mwenga muhaka kisiwa cha Kosi Siku ya hiriye fuchenda Rodo na hurihombola ko Rodo fwakwenda bandari ya Patara
There we found a ship that was going to the area of Phoenicia We got on the ship and sailed away,Kuko Patara hukiona chombo kingine ambacho were kindavuka kwenda Fonike kwa vizho fuchendapanda na fuchenda
We sailed near the island of Cyprus We could see it on the north side but we did not stop We sailed to the country of Syria We stopped at Tyre because the ship needed to unload its cargo there,Bai fwakwenda vivii muhaka fukiona kisiwa cha Kuporo kwa kure h'aya fukikikira na kwa mwaka cho kisiwa fuchenda Bai fuchenda vivii muhaka Siria na fukithima ko bandari ya Tiro mana kuko cho chombo were kindathinya mizigo
We found the Lords followers there and stayed with them for seven days They warned Paul not to go to Jerusalem because of what the Spirit had told them,Bai hukiamala o anafundzi kuko furihoaona fukikala hamwenga nao kwa muda wa siku fungahe nao kukirira na ye Roho makimwamba P'aulo asende bule ko Jerusalemu
But when our time there was up we returned to the ship to continue our trip All the followers even the women and children came with us to the seashore We all knelt down on the beach prayed,Ela wakathi wehu urihogoma fwauka na fukienderera na charo chehu Furihokala fukwendani o at'u mariomukuluhira Jesu hamwenga na ache ao na ahoho ao mafwamboza vivii muhaka ndze ya wo mudzi na hosi hukipiga mavindi hukivoya
and said goodbye Then we got on the ship and the followers went home,Gonya ndo hukilagana sino fuchangira mo chomboni nao makigaluka kuuya kwao
We continued our trip from Tyre and went to the city of Ptolemais We greeted the believers there and stayed with them one day,Bai hukiuka ko Tiro naswi ndiswi vivii muhaka Putolemai kuko bai hukialamusa o ndugu na hukisinda nao siku iyo
The next day we left Ptolemais and went to the city of Caesarea We went into the home of Philip and stayed with him He had the work of telling the Good News He was one of the seven helpers,Siku ya hiriye fukiuka na fuchenda Kaisaria na kuko Kaisaria fwakwendatoa kahi za nyumba ya Filipu ariye were ni muhubiri wa Uvoro Udzo kidza were ni mumwenga kahi za aryahu at'u afungahe mariotsagulwa ko Jerusalemu
He had four unmarried daughters who had the gift of prophesying,Mut'u yuyu were ana asichanae ane mario were k'amadzahalwa nao were mana vigerwa zha unabii
After we had been there for several days a prophet named Agabus came from Judea,Vikara hurihokala hudzagonya siku za kuthala haho hakudza nabii mumwenga aifwaye Agabo kula Judea
He came to us and borrowed Pauls belt He used it to tie his own hands and feet He said The Holy Spirit tells me This is how the Jews in Jerusalem will tie up the man who wears this beltThen they will hand him over to people who dont know God,Bai nabii yuyu wakudza hatha ho hurihokala akihala ukanda wa P'aulo na akidzifunga yo mikono na go magulu na akiamba Vivi ndo aambazho ye Roho Mweri kukala Kahi za ngira ii nidzizhodzifunga be o Ayahudi ko Jerusalemu ndizho mandizhomufunga yuyu mwenye ukanda uu nao mandamuhala na mamulazhe kwa at'u mario si Ayahudi
When we heard this we and the other followers there begged Paul not to go to Jerusalem,Hurihosikira gago siswi hamwenga na o at'u a kuko fwamusitira P'aulo asimbuke kwenda Jerusalemu bule
But he said Why are you crying and making me feel so sad I am willing to be put in jail in Jerusalem I am even ready to die for the name of the Lord Jesus,Ela ye P'aulo akihudzigidzya akiamba Mbona munarira na kunibanda moyo namuna ino kaheri Mut'u mimi h'e si thayari kufungwa thu h'akeye ela ni thayari kufwa ko Jerusalemu kwa ut'u wa dzina ra Bwana Jesu
We could not persuade him to stay away from Jerusalem So we stopped begging him and said We pray that what the Lord wants will be done,Bai arihokala P'aulo k'abembelezeka fwaviricha na fukiamba Navikale here Mulungu ahendzazho bai
After this we got ready and left for Jerusalem,Bai bada ya gaga fwadziondzola-ondzola na fuchambuka kwenda Jerusalemu
Some of the followers of Jesus from Caesarea went with us These followers took us to the home of Mnason a man from Cyprus who was one of the first people to be a follower of Jesus They took us to his home so that we could stay with him,Angine kahi za o anafundzi ko Kaisaria makwenda hamwenga naswi muhaka makifwangiza nyumbani kwa mut'u mumwenga aifwaye Munasoni ambako were ndo hundikokala Munasoni were ni mut'u wa kula Kuporo na kidza were ni mumwenga kahi za o at'u mariokala mamukuluhira Jesu kapindi
The brothers and sisters in Jerusalem were very happy to see us,Vikara furihofika Jerusalemu o ndugu mahukaribishat'o na raha
The next day Paul went with us to visit James and all the elders were there,Bai siku ya hiriye P'aulo wagwirana naswi na fuchendamona Jakobu Hunafika kuko o azee osi a ro kanisa makikala ma haho
After greeting them Paul told them point by point all that God had used him to do among the nonJewish people,H'aya P'aulo akialamusa tha go gonya akiadondolera kila kit'u arichokala ye Mulungu wakihenda kwa o at'u mario si Ayahudi kukirira kwa uhumikiwe
When the leaders heard this they praised God Then they said to Paul Brother you can see that thousands of Jews have become believers but they think it is very important to obey the Law of Moses,Na lola marihosikira vivi mamulika Mulungu gonya makimwamba P'aulo Unaona mwanehu zho marizho Ayahudi maalifu na maalifu makuluhira na osini bai mana chadi na yo Sheria jeri-jeri
They have been told that you teach the Jews who live in nonJewish regions to stop following the Law of Moses They have heard that you tell them not to circumcise their sons or follow our other customs,Bai ao mapata kawee dzuluzo kukala unaafundisha o Ayahudi matoao kahi za ts'i za at'u mario si Ayahudi kukala mailozere mongo yo Sheria ya Musa Manaamba uwe unaambira masingize lwembeni ana ao hedu hatha kuishi karakara na maadha gehu
What should we do The Jewish believers here will learn that you have come,H'aya vikara vino be fundahendadze Mana kwa zhozhosi ao mandasikira kukala udzire
So we will tell you what to do Four of our men have made a vowto God,Uwe henda vivi fundizhokwambira Hana anaalume ane haha mario mapiga hathi kwa Mulungu
Take these men with you and share in their cleansing ceremonyPay their expenses so that they can shave their headsThis will prove to everyone that the things they have heard about you are not true They will see that you obey the Law of Moses in your own life,Bai ahale at'u aa na ugwirane nao kahi za adha ra kudzitsusa kwao arihire zo garama zao ili manyole zo nyerezao Ukihenda vizho kila mut'u andamanya kukala gago marigombirwa dzuluzo ni ga ulongo ela ni kwamba hatha uwe mwenye nawe kidza unaishi karakara na yo Sheria iambazho na unayogoha
So Paul took the four men with him The next day he shared in their cleansing ceremony Then he went to the Temple area and announced the time when the days of the cleansing ceremony would be finished On the last day an offering would be given for each of the men,Bai siku ya hiriye P'aulo waahala aryahu anaalume na akidzitsusa hamwenga nao gonya ndeye vivii muhaka kahi za ro Hekalu kwendalazha mbadha ya ho zindihogomera zo siku za adha ra kudzitsusa na kila mumwenga wao amboze sadaka
When the sevenday period was almost finished some Jews from Asia saw Paul in the Temple area They stirred up everyone into an angry mob They grabbed Paul,Vikara ziryahu siku fungahe zirihokala zi hehi na kugoma Ayahudi angine kula jimbo ra Asia mamupesa mo Hekaluni ye P'aulo K'uzhona zho makirilunga rosi ro kundi ra at'u na makimugwira
and shouted Men of Israel help us This is the man who is teaching things that are against the Law of Moses against our people and against this Temple of ours This is what he teaches people everywhere And now he has brought some Greeks into the Temple area and has made this holy place unclean,kuno manapiga k'ululu na kuamba H'aya alume a Iziraeli fwavwizeni Yuyu be nde yuyahu mut'u afundishaye at'u osi kila hat'u kinyume cha o at'u ehu na kinyume cha yo Sheria yehu na kinyume cha hat'u haha H'aya zho mbai adzire na Ayunani mumu ndani za muhala wa ro Hekalu na hakangizwa nyenye haha hat'u haeri
The Jews said this because they had seen Trophimus with Paul in Jerusalem Trophimus was a man from Ephesus The Jews thought that Paul had taken him into the holy area of the Temple,O at'u manena vizho kwa kukala were madzamona T'erofimo ariye ni mut'u wa Efeso ko kahi za wo mudzi na were yu hamwenga na P'aulo kwa vizho makiona kukala P'aulo adzakwenda naye kahi za wo muhala wa ro Hekalu
An angry reaction spread throughout the city and everyone came running to the Temple They grabbed Paul and dragged him out of the holy area and the gates were closed immediately,Bai wo mudzi wosi ukidzala fujo t'uhu na o at'u makidza malo arya madzambola na kuno na arya madzambola na kurya h'aya thio makidzamugwira P'aulo na makimuvurura muhaka ko ndze ya wo muhala wa ro Hekalu na haho henye yo miryango ya ro Hekalu ikifungwa kare
While they were trying to kill Paul the commander of the Roman army in Jerusalem got word that the whole city was in a state of riot,Vikara marihokala manajeza kumukot'a ye P'aulo ye mubomu wa majeshi ga Kirumi wapata p'eho kukala wo mudzi wosi wa Jerusalemu u thele fujo
Immediately the commander ran to where the crowd had gathered taking with him some army officers and soldiers When the people saw the commander and his soldiers they stopped beating Paul,Bai arihosikira vizho akiuka kare akihala maofisaa sehemu na shikari nao sehemu naye h'aya akitharamuka ko kwenye ro kundi ra at'u Vikara o at'u marihomona ye mubomu wa majeshi makiricha kuryahu kumupiga ye P'aulo
The commander went over to Paul and arrested him He told his soldiers to tie him up with two chains Then he asked Who is this man What has he done wrong,Ndo yuyahu mubomu wa majeshi akidzamugwira ye P'aulo na akilagiza afungwe na minyororo miri Ndo akiuza chamba ye mut'u ni h'ani na adzahendadze
Some people there were shouting one thing and others were shouting something else Because of all this confusion and shouting the commander could not learn the truth about what had happened So he told the soldiers to take Paul to the army building,Angine kahi za ro kundi makipiga k'ululu ano manaamba vino na arya manaamba virya Bai ye mubomu wa majeshi k'adimire kumanya wo ujeri uhiho kwa ut'u wa ro h'uwoh'uwo kwa vizho akilagiza kwamba ye P'aulo ahirikwe ko k'ambini
When the soldiers were ready to take Paul into the army building he asked the commander Can I say something to you,K'uzhona zho aryahu shikari marihokala ma hehi na kumwangiza P'aulo mo k'ambini ye P'aulo wanena na ye mubomu wa jeshi akiamba Namala ninene ut'u vidze nadima Ye mubomu wa jeshi akimuza akiamba Ala kudzi unamanya Kiyunani we
Then you are not the man I thought you were I thought you were the Egyptian who started some trouble against the government not long ago and led four thousand terrorists out to the desert,We k'uyuyahu Mumisiri ariye ho nyuma-nyuma wajeza kupindua sirikali na akilongoza magaidhi alifu ne akigamboza achenda nago ko nyika
Paul said No I am a Jew from Tarsus in the country of Cilicia I am a citizen of that important city Please let me speak to the people,P'aulo akidzigidzya akiamba Hatha bule mut'u mimi ni Muyahudi kula T'ariso kahi za ts'i ya Kilikia Ni mut'u nambolaye kahi za mudzi ambawo si muthithe bule Vikara navoya vichadimikika nisumurire na aa at'u
The commander told Paul he could speak So he stood on the steps and waved his hand so that the people would be quiet The people became quiet and Paul spoke to them in Aramaic,Bai ye mubomu wa majeshi arihomup'a ruhusa P'aulo waungarara ho ngazini na akiavungira mukono o at'u marihokala madzahurira akinena nao kwa Kieburania akiamba
Paul said My brothers and fathers listen to me I will make my defense to you,Ndugu zangu na ano baba namala musikize viryahu nindizhodzihehera
When the Jews heard Paul speaking Aramaic they became very quiet Then Paul said,Bai marihosikira ananena nao kwa Kieburania makaza kuhurira hu Ndo P'aulo akiamba
I am a Jew born in Tarsus in the country of Cilicia I grew up in this city I was a student of Gamalielwho carefully taught me everything about the law of our fathers I was very serious about serving God the same as all of you here today,Mut'u mimi ni Muyahudi mimi nazhalwa T'ariso mudzi uriwo ko Kilikia ela narerwa kahi za mudzi uu wa Jerusalemu Nafundishwa sheria yosi ya akare ehu t'ot'ot'o ni Gamalieli na nakala na chadi na Mulungu dza vizho murizho ninwi nyosini vivi rero
I persecuted the people who followed the Way Some of them were killed because of me I arrested men and women and put them in jail,Naatesa o at'u mathuwao Ngira ii ya Jesu na hatha nikialaga Naagwira ache kwa alume na nichendaatsuha jela
The high priest and the whole council of older Jewish leaders can tell you that this is true One time these leaders gave me some letters The letters were to the Jewish brothers in the city of Damascus I was going there to arrest the followers of Jesus and bring them back to Jerusalem for punishment,Ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye na ro Baraza rosi manadima kumboza ushahidhi wa gaga ninenago Mimi nahokera baruwa kula kwa o alombi abomu na ro Baraza ra athumia baruwa iyo were yaorerwa o Ayahudi a Damesiki Bai nichenda ili nikaagwire nidze nao Jerusalemu here mahabusu ili madze mangizwe akili
But something happened to me on my way to Damascus It was about noon when I came close to Damascus Suddenly a bright light from heaven shined all around me,Vikara nirihokala kahi za cho charo changu mo ngirani hehi na Damesiki murongo wa dzuwa ra vitswani lola kwambola mulangaza wa kung'ala sana kula mulunguni na ukinipiga
I fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to me Saul Saul why are you persecuting me,K'uzhona zho nakwenda chavu ho ts'i na nikisikira sauthi ya mut'u ikinamba Sauli Sauli Mbona unanitesa kaheri
I asked Who are you Lord The voice said I am Jesus from Nazareth the one you are persecuting,Nikiuza nikiamba U h'ani Bwana Akidzigidzya akiamba Mimi unitesaye ni Jesu wa Nazareth'i
The men who were with me did not understand the voice but they saw the light,Bai aryahu andzangu huriokala hosi mawona wo mulangaza ela yo sauthi ya iye ariyekala ananena nami k'amaisikirire bule
I said What shall I do Lord The Lord answered Get up and go into Damascus There you will be told all that I have planned for you to do,Ndo nikiuza nikiamba Vikara nihendedze Bwana Ye Bwana akiamba Uka wangire Damesiki ukifika kuko undambirwa kila kit'u udzichothayarishirwa kuhenda
I could not see because the bright light had made me blind So the men led me into Damascus,Bai aryahu andzangu manigwira mukono na makinitsetseza muhaka mo Damesiki mana were yo ch'enje ya wo mulangaza idzanalaga matso kamare
In Damascus a man named Ananiascame to me He was a man who was devoted to God and obeyed the Law of Moses All the Jews who lived there respected him,Vikara kuko Damesiki kwere kuna mut'u mumwenga aifwaye Anania Anania were wadzambozeza kuithuwa yo sheria naye were anaishimiwa sana ni o Ayahudi osi mariotoa kuko Bai akidzanona
He came to me and said Saul my brother look up and see again Immediately I was able to see him,Arihofika waima hehi nami na akiamba Sauli mwenehu h'aya ona kaheri Na haho henye nikidima kumona hatha iye
Ananias told me The God of our fathers chose you long ago to know his plan He chose you to see the Righteous One and to hear words from him,Gonya ye Anania akiamba Iye Mulungu wa akare wakutsagula ili umanye mahendzoge na umone iye Muhachi na usikire go maneno gandigombola kanwani mwakwe
You will be his witness to all people You will tell them what you have seen and heard,Uwe undakala shahidhiwe kwa at'u osi undaambira garyahu urigogaona na kugasikira
Now dont wait any longer Get up be baptized and wash away your sins trusting in Jesus to save you,Nawe vikara unatharizani be vino Uka ubat'izwe kwa dzina ra Jesu na ukihenda vizho undasamehewa kamare
Later I came back to Jerusalem I was praying in the Temple area and I saw a vision,P'aulo akienderera kunena akiamba Vikara nikiuya haha Jerusalemu na nirihokala ni kahi za ro Hekalu navoya naona maono
I saw Jesus and he said to me Hurry and leave Jerusalem now The people here will not accept the truth you tell them about me,Namona Bwana akiniamba Henda haraka umbole kare mumu Jerusalemu mana o at'u haha k'amandaukubali bule wo ushahidhiwo dzulu za mimi
I said But Lord the people know that I was the one who put the believers in jail and beat them I went through all the synagogues to find and arrest the people who believe in you,Nikidzigidzya nikiamba Bwana at'u aa be manamanya kukala mimi nangira Sinagogi rino na rirya na kuagwira at'u na kuafunga na kuapiga ao makukuluhirao uwe
The people also know that I was there when Stephen your witness was killed I stood there and agreed that they should kill him I even held the coats of the men who were killing him,Na wakathi yuyahu shahidhiwo Sitivini arihokala anakotw'a mut'u mimi nakala wa thi haho kuaunga mukono na kuzikat'o zo nguwo za aryahu mariokala manamwalaga
But Jesus said to me Leave now I will send you far away to the nonJewish people,Bai ye Bwana akinamba Uka nindakuhuma wende kut'u kure kwenye ko kwa at'u mario si Ayahudi
The people stopped listening when Paul said this last thing They all shouted Get rid of this man He doesnt deserve to live,Bai ro kundi ra at'u ramusirikiza P'aulo hatha arihohadza dzulu za kwenda kwa at'u mario si Ayahudi richa mapige k'ululu na kuamba Museni yuyu haha dhuniani k'avirya kukala moyo bule
They kept on shouting ripping off their clothes and throwing dust into the air,Vikara marihokala ni h'uwoh'uwo na kutsuha go maamba gao na kufitisa vumbi ko dzulu
Then the commander told the soldiers to take Paul into the army building and beat him He wanted to make Paul tell why the people were shouting against him like this,ye mubomu wa jeshi walagiza ye P'aulo ahirikwe ko k'ambini Pia akilagiza auzwe-uzwe kwa kupigwa vikotho ili amanye ni kwanoni o at'u manapiga k'ululu kwa ut'u wa iye namuna iyo
So the soldiers were tying Paul preparing to beat him But he said to an army officer there Do you have the right to beat a Roman citizenwho has not been proven guilty,Bai marihokala manamufunga ili mamupige P'aulo wamwamba ye ofisaa ariyekala aimire haho akiamba Vidze kisheria ni hachi kumupiga raiya wa Kirumi na ko k'adzangwe kupigwa ulongo
When the officer heard this he went to the commander and told him about it The officer said Do you know what you are doing This man is a Roman citizen,K'uzhona zho kusikira vizho ye ofisaa wakwenda kwa ye mubomu wa jeshi na achendavisema akiamba H'aya undahendadze kwani mut'u yuyu be ni raiya wa Kirumi
The commander came to Paul and said Tell me are you really a Roman citizen,Bai ye mubomu wa jeshi achendamuza P'aulo akiamba Nambira hedu we ati u raiya wa Kirumi P'aulo akidzigidzya akiamba Ee
The commander said I paid a lot of money to become a Roman citizen,Ye mubomu wa jeshi akiamba Mimi be wo uraiya naurihira p'esa nyinji sana P'aulo akidzigidzya akiamba Mino be nazhalwa kare raiya
The men who were preparing to question Paul moved away from him immediately The commander was afraid because he had already put Paul in chains and he was a Roman citizen,Ndo aryahu mario were mandamuza-muza maswali makihenda nyeree kare na ye mubomu wa jeshi mwenye achangirwa ni woga arihogundua kukala adzamuhala P'aulo na akamufunga minyororo na ko ni raiya wa Kirumi
The next day the commander decided to learn why the Jews were accusing Paul So he ordered the leading priests and the whole high council to meet together He had Pauls chains taken off and had him brought in to face the council,Vikara siku ya hiriye ye mubomu wa jeshi were anamala amanye ni ut'u wani haswa uriwo unaahenda o Ayahudi mamushithaki ye P'aulo kwa vizho akimwamboza na akilagiza o alombi abomu na ro Baraza rosi makundzumanyike Bai virihohendeka vizho wamuhala P'aulo na achendamwika mbere zao
Paul looked at the council members and said Brothers I have lived my life in a good way before God I have always done what I thought was right,Bai P'aulo akialolat'o o athumia a ro Baraza akiamba Ndugu zangu Mut'u mimi nina hakika mbere za Mulungu kukala nidzaishi maisha madzo hatha vivi
Ananiasthe high priest was there When he heard this he told the men who were standing near Paul to hit him in the mouth,Kusikira vivi Anania ariye were nde Mulombi mubomu mwenye waalagiza ao mario were maimire hehi na ye P'aulo mamwangize mbalahi ya kanwa
Paul said to Ananias God will hit you too You are like a dirty wall that has been painted white You sit there and judge me using the Law of Moses But you are telling them to hit me and that is against the law,K'ona P'aulo akimwamba ye Mulombi mubomu mwenye Wee unadzihendya u mut'u mudzo na k'umudzo kit'uMulungu andakwangiza mbalahi Udimadze kukeresi haho na kunihukumu kisheria kuno ko we mwenye unaibanda yo sheria kwa kulagiza at'u manangize mbalahi
The men standing near Paul said to him Are you sure you want to insult Gods high priest like that,Bai aryahu mariokala maimire hehi na ye P'aulo mamwamba Mbona unamudhyoma Mulombi mubomu mwenye wa Mulungu we
Paul said Brothers I did not know this man was the high priest The Scriptures say You must not say bad things about a leader of your people,P'aulo akidzigidzya akiamba Aa p'oreni ndugu zangu simanyire kala yuyu nde Mulombi mubomu mwenye mana Maoro ganaamba kukala Usinene mai dzulu za muthawali wa at'uo
Paul knew that some of the men in the council meeting were Sadducees and some were Pharisees So he shouted My brothers I am a Pharisee and my father was a Pharisee I am on trial here because I believe that people will rise from death,Vikara P'aulo were anamanya kukala angine kahi za o at'u ni Masadukayo na angine ni Mafarisayo bai akinena na mumiro mubomu kahi za ro Baraza ra athumia akiamba Mut'u mimi ni Farisayo ndugu zangu nazhalwa ni Mafarisayo Nami nidzarefwa haha manenoni kwa kukala ninakuluhira kukala at'u mariofwa mandafufulwa
When Paul said this a big argument started between the Pharisees and the Sadducees The group was divided,Naye kutosa kunena vivi thu o Mafarisayo na Masadukayo makikosana kare na wo muthunganano ukigazhika
The Sadducees believe that after people die they will not live again as an angel or as a spirit But the Pharisees believe in both,Mana Masadukayo manaamba k'akuna cha at'u kufufuka na manaamba kukala k'akuna cha malaika hedu roho ela o Mafarisayo manaamini kukala vivi vit'u zhosi vi kuko
All these Jews began shouting louder and louder Some of the teachers of the law who were Pharisees stood up and argued We find nothing wrong with this man Maybe an angel or a spirit really did speak to him,K'uzhona zho kundahenda h'uwoh'uwo na londzo lunji na angine kahi za alimu a Sheria mario were ni Mafarisayo makiungarara na makilalamika jeri-jeri makiamba Mut'u yuyu be k'afumona na kosa rorosi na hangine nikwenda akakala roho hedu malaika manena naye jeri
The argument turned into a fight and the commander was afraid that the Jews would tear Paul to pieces So he told the soldiers to go down and take Paul away from these Jews and put him in the army building,Na lola ro h'uwoh'uwo kahi za o Mafarisayo na Masadukayo rikikaza zhomu hatha ye mubomu wa jeshi akikala ana wasiwasi k'anji P'aulo andatharurwa visiku-visiku ni ao at'u Bai akialagiza o shikari matharamuke ko ts'ini na makamuhale kwa nguvu kula kwa o at'u na mende naye ko k'ambini
The next night the Lord Jesus came and stood by Paul He said Be brave You have told people in Jerusalem about me You must do the same in Rome,K'uzhona zho usiku uwo Bwana wakudzaima hehi na ye P'aulo na akiamba Dzip'e moyo mana vizho udzizhomboza ushahidhi uu dzulu zangu kahi za Jerusalemu be ndo ambazho ni suthi unambozeze ushahidhi kuko Rumi nako
The next morning some of the Jews made a plan to kill Paul They made a promise to themselves that they would not eat or drink anything until they had killed him,Bai kurihocha na madzach'a o Ayahudi mapanga njama ya kumwalaga P'aulo makilaha kwa Mulungu kukala k'amandarya kit'u hedu kunwa chochosi muhaka maone kukala madzamwalaga ye P'aulo
There were more than 40 of them who made this plan,Bai o at'u mariopanga njama iyo were ni zaidhi ya mirongo mine
They went and talked to the leading priests and the older Jewish leaders They said We have promised ourselves that we will not eat or drink until we have killed Paul,At'u aa makwenda muhaka ko kwa alombi abomu na o athumia a Kiyahudi na machendaamba At'u siswi fudzalaha kwa Mulungu kamare kukala k'afundadona kit'u muhaka humwalage P'aulo
So this is what we want you to do Send a message to the commander from you and the high council Tell him you want him to bring Paul out to you Say that you want to ask him more questions We will be waiting to kill him while he is on the way here,Vikara ninwi na o athumia a Baraza hirikani uvoro kwa ye mubomu wa jeshi kwamba amurehe P'aulo mbere zenu na mudzihendye munamala kumanya zaidhi dzulu za yo k'esiye naswi fu thayari fumwalage kabila k'adzafika haha
But Pauls nephew heard about this plan He went to the army building and told Paul,K'uzhona zho muthana wa nduguye P'aulo wa kiche akiipata p'eho yo njama bai achenda ko k'ambini na achendamutinyira P'aulo
Then Paul called one of the army officers and said to him Take this young man to the commander He has a message for him,Ndo P'aulo akiiha mumwenga kahi za o maofisaa na akimwamba Muhale yuyu muvulana wende naye hatha kwa ye mubomu wa jeshi ana ut'u amalao kwendamwambiriza
So the army officer brought Pauls nephew to the commander The officer said The prisoner Paul asked me to bring this young man to you He has something to tell you,Bai akimuhala achenda naye kwa ye mubomu wa jeshi Marihofika kuko ye ofisaa akimwamba ye mubomu wa jeshi P'aulo yuyahu mufungwa adzanihuma nimurehe yuyu muvulana kwako mana ana ut'u amalao kukwambira
The commander led the young man to a place where they could be alone The commander asked What do you want to tell me,K'uzhona zho ye mubomu wa jeshi akimugwira mukono ye muvulana na akimuvuha k'anda akimuza akiamba H'aya were una ut'u wani wa kunambira
The young man said Some Jews have decided to ask you to bring Paul down to their council meeting tomorrow They want you to think that they plan to ask Paul more questions,Ye muvulana akiamba O Ayahudi madzapanga kukala machero uwe umurehe P'aulo mbere za o athumia a Baraza nao madzihendye manamala kusikira manji zaidhi dzuluze
But dont believe them More than 40 of them are hiding and waiting to kill him They have all promised not to eat or drink until they have killed him Now they are waiting for you to say yes,Vikara uwe usithuwe zho zhao bule mana hana at'u zaidhi ya mirongo mine ambao madzamuzamira ko ngirani na madzalaha kwa Mulungu kukala k'amandadona kit'u hedu hatha kunwa chochosi muhaka mamwalage ye P'aulo Na vivi be ma thayari kare hatha manathariza zho undizhoamba thu
The commander sent the young man away telling him Dont tell anyone that you have told me about their plan,Bai ye mubomu wa jeshi akimukokot'era ye muvulana akiamba Usiseme kwa mut'u yoyosi kukala udzire nambira maut'u gaga Gonya akimwamba ye muvulana ende
Then the commander called two army officers He said to them I need some men to go to Caesarea Get 200 soldiers ready Also get 70 soldiers on horses and 200 men to carry spears Be ready to leave at nine oclock tonight,Arihokala ye muvulana adzauka ye mubomu wa jeshi waaiha airi kahi za o maofisaae a shikari na akialagiza akiamba Thayarishani shikari magana mane na mirongo mifungahe Magana mairi makale ni shikari a kawaida magana mairi makale ni a mafumo na mirongo mifungahe makale ni a kupanda farasi H'aya aa osi mende Kaisaria vivi rero usiku wa saa t'ahu
Get some horses for Paul to ride so that he can be taken to Governor Felix safely,Kidza muthayarishireni farasi a kuthala ye P'aulo na mwende naye salama kwa luwali Feliki
The commander wrote a letter that said,Gonya ye mubomu wa jeshi akiora baruwa iambayo
From Claudius Lysias,Ni mimi Kilaudio Lusia nakuorera uwe muheshimiwa luwali Feliki Vidze k'una ut'u
Some Jews had taken this man and planned to kill him But I learned that he is a Roman citizen so I went with my soldiers and saved him,Mut'u yuyu wagwirwa ni Ayahudi na hachache henye mamwalage ela bai nichenda na shikari angu na nichendamuthizha mana nakala dzapata uvoro kukala iye ni raiya wa Kirumi
I wanted to know why they were accusing him So I brought him before their council meeting,Vikara nikikala namala nimanye manamushithakirani kwa vizho nikimuhirika mbere za ro Baraza ra athumia
This is what I learned The Jews said this man did some things that were wrong But these charges were about their own Jewish laws and there was nothing worthy of jail or death,Bai nikigundua kukala mamushithaki kwa maut'u ga Sheria yao ela hatha were k'ahana kosa rorosi ridimaro kumuhendya alagwe hedu angizwe jela
I was told that some of the Jews were making a plan to kill him So I decided to send him to you I also told those Jews to tell you what they have against him,Vikara nirihombirwa dzulu za njama iriyokala idzatsilwa dzulu za yuyu mut'u ndo nikiona baha nimuhume kuko kwako mara mwenga kidza nidzaambira ao at'u madziomushithaki kukala yo k'esi mariyo nayo dzulu za mut'u yuyu be ni mainene mberezo
The soldiers did what they were told They got Paul and took him to the city of Antipatris that night,Kwa vizho o shikari makihenda here marizhokala madzalagizwa makimuhala P'aulo na wo usiku na machenda naye vivii muhaka Anitipatiri
The next day the soldiers on horses went with Paul to Caesarea but the other soldiers and the spearmen went back to the army building in Jerusalem,Bai siku ya hiriye aryahu shikari mario were k'amahumira farasi mauya ko k'ambini ela aryahu shikari a kuhumira farasi makienderera na cho charo cha kumuhirika P'aulo
The soldiers on horses entered Caesarea gave the letter to Governor Felix and then turned Paul over to him,Vikara marihofika ko Kaisaria mahala yo baruwa na makimup'a ye luwali na makimulazha ye P'aulo kwa iye luwali
The governor read the letter and asked Paul What country are you from The governor learned that Paul was from Cilicia,H'aya ye luwali akiishoma yo baruwa gonya akimuza ye P'aulo chamba anambola kahi za jimbo hiro Bai arihokala adzamanya kukala ye P'aulo ni wa Kilikia
The governor said I will hear your case when the Jews who are accusing you come here too Then the governor gave orders for Paul to be kept in the palace built by Herod,akiamba Nindaisirikizat'o yo k'esiyo haho mandihokudza ao mariokushithaki Gonya akilagiza kukala ye P'aulo aikwe kahi za nyumba iriyoakwa ni muthawali Herode na arindwe jeri-jeri
Five days later Ananias the high priest went to the city of Caesarea He brought with him some of the older Jewish leaders and a lawyer named Tertullus They went to Caesarea to make charges against Paul before the governor,Vikara bada ya siku ts'ano Anania Mulombi mubomu mwenye watharamuka ko Kaisaria iye hamwenga na athumia fulani na wakili mumwenga ariyeifwa T'eritulo Bai makwenda kuko makanene yo k'esi yao na P'aulo mbere za ye luwali Feliki
But I dont want to take any more of your time So I will say only a few words Please be patient,Ela bai ts'endzi ni kutsoshe bule nimalazho ni kwamba nahendza ufusirikize vichache zhenye chamba vinadimikika
This man is a troublemaker He causes trouble with the Jews everywhere in the world He is a leader of the Nazarene group,At'u siswi fwagundua kukala mut'u yuyu be ni muthiriri Anadusha fujo kahi za Ayahudi naye anahenda ut'u uu kahi za urumwengu muzima Kidza yuyu nde kitswa cha kundi ra Anazareth'i
The other Jews agreed and said it was all true,Bai o Ayahudi mariokala haho mauunga mukono moro uu makiamba Gago gadzigonenwa be ni ga jeri
The governor made a sign for Paul to speak So Paul answered Governor Felix I know that you have been a judge over this nation for a long time So I am happy to defend myself before you,Bai ye luwali akimonyesa P'aulo muvano kukala ni zamuye ya kunena Ndo P'aulo akidzigidzya akiamba Ninamanya kukala uwe udzakala jaji kahi za ts'i ii miaka minji yenye kwa vizho ninadzihehera na raha
I went to worship in Jerusalem only twelve days ago You can learn for yourself that this is true,H'aya uwe unadima ukamanya kukala mimi nakwenda Jerusalemu kwendavoya Bai vivi k'azizidhi siku kumi na mbiri bule hangu nende
These Jews who are accusing me did not find me arguing with anyone at the Temple or making trouble with the people And I was not making trouble or arguing in the synagogues or any other place in the city,Aa Ayahudi madzionishithaki be k'amanonere nanenezana na mut'u yoyosi kahi za ro Hekalu hedu hatha kualunga at'u kahi za masinagogi na kahi za wo mudzi wa Jerusalemu magwage fujo
These men cannot prove the things they are saying against me now,Zho mbai aa be k'amadima kumboza ushahidhi wa kunyesa kukala zho maniambazho nazho ni jeri
But I will tell you this I worship the God of our fathers as a follower of the Way which these Jews say is not the right way and I believe everything that is taught in the Law of Moses and all that is written in the books of the prophets,Kit'u ambacho ninakikubali ni kiki mimi ninamuvoya ye Mulungu wa akare ehu kwa kuithuwa iryahu Ngira ya Jesu ambayo Ayahudi manayamba ni chama cha fujo Kidza mimi nagakuluhira gosini garyahu garigoorwa kahi za Sheria ya Musa na garigoorwa ni manabii
I have the same hope in God that these Jews havethe hope that all people good and bad will be raised from death,nami th'amaa yangu kwa Mulungu be ni dza ii ya at'u aa yenye kwamba at'u ahachi na masio ahachi mandafufulwa
This is why I always try to do what I believe is right before God and before everyone,Kwa ut'u uu bai siku zosi ninajeza here zhadimikikazho kuhenda madzo mbere za Mulungu na mbere za anadamu
But some Jews from Asia were there They should be here standing before you If I have really done anything wrong they are the ones who should accuse me They were there,Ela bai were hana Ayahudi angine kula jimbo ra Asia kwandza ao manavirya makale ma haha na manene chamba mana ut'u wowosi wa kunishithakira
Ask these men here if they found any wrong in me when I stood before the high council meeting in Jerusalem,H'aya zho mbai aa mario haha be vivi ni manene kala manona nina kosa haho nirihoima mbere za ro Baraza ra athumia
I did say one thing when I stood before them and shouted You are judging me today because I believe that people will rise from death,Nina kit'u kimwenga nirichokihenda na kala mananishithaki na kicho ninakikubali Napiga k'ululu mbere zao nikiamba Ninahukumiwa kwa kukala ninakuluhira kukala kuna kufufuka
Felix already understood a lot about the Way He stopped the trial and said When commander Lysias comes here I will decide what to do with you,Ndo Feliki ambaye go maut'u ga yo Ngira ya Jesu were anagamanyat'o akiona baha yo k'esi aifunge kwandza akiamba Ii k'esiyo ndaitosa haho Lusia mubomu wa jeshi andihokala adzire
Felix told the army officer to keep Paul guarded but to give him some freedom and to let his friends bring whatever he needed,Bai akilagiza mubomu wa shikari amwangize rumande ye P'aulo ela pia amup'e uhuru wa kutsembererwa ni asenae na mamwavize na mahitaji ga kwakwe
After a few days Felix came with his wife Drusilla who was a Jew Felix asked for Paul to be brought to him He listened to Paul talk about believing in Christ Jesus,Bai bada ya siku mbiri t'ahu Feliki wakudza na muchewe Dirusila Mukaza Feliki were ni Muyahudi K'uzhona bai Feliki akimulagiza P'aulo adze arihokudza P'aulo wanena dzulu za kumukuluhira Masihi Jesu na Feliki akikala anasirikiza thu
But Felix became afraid when Paul spoke about things like doing right selfcontrol and the judgment that will come in the future He said Go away now When I have more time I will call for you,Vikara P'aulo arihokala adzakwatya kunena dzulu za hachi na dzulu za kudziunya na dzulu za yo hukumu indiyokudza Feliki wangirwa ni woga akiamba Vinathosha vizho kwa rero Haho nikikala nidzafisha nindakwiha kaheri
But Felix had another reason for talking with Paul He hoped Paul would pay him a bribe so he sent for Paul often and talked with him,Mo ndani-ndani were Feliki ana th'amaa kukala hangine nikwenda P'aulo akamup'a kaitsi kwa vizho akikala ni wa kumwiha kila mara na kunena naye
But after two years Porcius Festus became governor So Felix was no longer governor But he left Paul in prison to please the Jews,Bai bada ya miaka miri kukira ho hat'u ha Feliki hahalwa ni P'orikio Fesito ela kwa kukala Feliki were anamala ahendzwe ni o Ayahudi wathuwa kumuricha P'aulo mo rumande
Festus became governor and three days later he went from Caesarea to Jerusalem,Vikara luwali Fesito akifika kahi za ro jimbo riro Bai bada ya siku t'ahu akiuka Kaisaria akimbuka kwenda Jerusalemu
The leading priests and the important Jewish leaders made charges against Paul before Festus,Bai arihokala a kuko Jerusalemu o alombi abomu na vilongozi a Kiyahudi mamushithaki P'aulo kwa Fesito
They asked Festus to do them a favor They wanted him to send Paul back to Jerusalem because they had a plan to kill Paul on the way,Makimuvoya Fesito chamba vinadimikika ye P'aulo arefwe Jerusalemu Ela lengo rao were ni chamba akudzani mamuvamie mahende kumukot'a kamare
But Festus answered No Paul will be kept in Caesarea I will be going there soon myself,Ela Fesito akidzigidzya akiamba P'aulo a rumande ko Kaisaria na mimi mwenye sindatoa ndakwenda kuko
and your leaders can go with me If this man has really done anything wrong they can accuse him there,Kwa vizho o vilongozi enu na madze fugwirane na hutharamuke kuko Kaisaria bai chamba ye mut'u wahenda ut'u wowosi uwi mundavinena kuko
Festus stayed in Jerusalem another eight or ten days and then went back to Caesarea The next day Festus told the soldiers to bring Paul before him Festus was seated on the judgment seat,Bai Fesito akikala hamwenga nao kwa muda wa siku nane hedu kumi vivi gonya akitharamuka kwenda Kaisaria na siku ya hiriye achendakelesi kahi za kihiche cha hukumu na akilagiza ye P'aulo aifiwe
Paul came into the room and the Jews who had come from Jerusalem stood around him They made many serious charges against him but they could not prove anything,Vikara P'aulo arihokudza aryahu Ayahudi mariokala madzire kula Jerusalemu maima kumudengereka na makimushithaki na maut'u manji maziho-maziho ambago were k'amana ushahidhi nago
Paul defended himself saying I have done nothing wrong against the Jewish law against the Temple or against Caesar,Ndo P'aulo achambola kudzihehera akiamba Mut'u mimi sihendere kosa rorosi kinyume cha Sheria ya Kiyahudi hedu kinyume cha ro Hekalu na sihendere kosa rorosi kinyume cha Kaisari
But Festus wanted to please the Jews So he asked Paul Do you want to go to Jerusalem for me to judge you there on these charges,Bai kwa kukala Fesito were anamala ahendzwe ni o Ayahudi wamuza P'aulo akiamba Simanya chamba ungahendza kwenda Jerusalemu na yo k'esi nikaitosere kuko
Paul said I am standing at Caesars judgment seat now This is where I should be judged I have done nothing wrong to the Jews and you know it,P'aulo akidzigidzya akiamba Vivi kare niimire mbere za koti ra Kirumi na yo karakara yo k'esi niitoserwe haha Na here we mwenye umanyazho t'ot'ot'o be mimi siahenderere rii rorosi o Ayahudi
If I have done something wrong and the law says I must die then I agree that I should die I dont ask to be saved from death But if these charges are not true then no one can hand me over to these people No I want Caesar to hear my case,Ela chamba ni mukosa na navirya nalagwe be mut'u mimi ni thayari kufwa ela chamba gaga marigo mananiamba nago aa be ni ga ulongo h'aya be k'ahana mut'u ariye na hachi ya kunilazha kwa at'u aa Navoya nihirikwe kwa Kaisari
Festus talked about this with his advisors Then he said You have asked to see Caesar so you will go to Caesar,Bai Fesito akiojana na o ashauri a kwakwe gonya akimudzigidzya P'aulo akiamba Udzavoya uhirikwe kwa Kaisari h'aya undakwenda
A few days later King Agrippa and Bernice came to Caesarea to visit Festus,Vikara bada ya siku za kuthala muthawali Agiripa na Berinike mazhoga mo Kaisaria kudzamubisha na kumukaribisha kamare ye Fesito
They stayed there many days and Festus told the king about Pauls case Festus said There is a man that Felix left in prison,Bai makitoa kuko kwa siku za kuthala Wakathi uwo ndo Fesito arihosumurira na ye Agiripa dzulu za yo k'esi ya P'aulo Akiamba Hana mwanamulume mumwenga haha ariyerichwa rumande ni Feliki
When I went to Jerusalem the leading priests and the older Jewish leaders there made charges against him They wanted me to order his death,nami nirihokala ko Jerusalemu o alombi abomu na athumia a Kiyahudi makudzamushithaki kwangu na makikala manaamba apigwe ulongo
But I told them When a man is accused of doing something wrong Romans dont hand him over for others to judge First he must face the people accusing him And then he must be allowed to defend himself against their charges,Bai nikidzigidzya nikiamba kukala kulengana na adha ra Kirumi ni makosa kumulazha mut'u hasiho kumwika mbere za ao madziomushithaki na kumup'a mwanya wa kudzihehera
So when these Jews came here for the trial I did not waste time The next day I sat on the judgment seat and ordered Paul to be brought in,Vikara marihofika haha siitoejere bule yo k'esi mana siku ya hiriye nakeresi kotini na nikilagiza arefwe mo ndani
The Jews stood up and accused him But they did not accuse him of the kind of crimes I thought they would,K'uzhona zho o ak'ondoe marihorungarara kunena nasirikiza aa manamushithaki na mangine genye hatha si gago nirigokala naelelya
Their charges were all about their own religion and about a man named Jesus Jesus died but Paul said that he is still alive,Ao be were mananenezana naye dzulu za dini yao enye na dzulu za mut'u aifwaye Jesu ambaye wafwa ela P'aulo adzasita kuamba a moyo
I did not have any idea about how to judge these matters So I asked Paul Do you want to go to Jerusalem and be judged there,Vikara kwa kukala maut'u gaga be mimi mwenye were simanya ngira ya kugachunguzira namuza ye mwenye chamba angahendza kwenda Jerusalemu na yo k'esi ya maut'u gaga ikanenwe kuko
But Paul asked to be kept in Caesarea He wants a decision from the emperor So I ordered that he be held until I could send him to Caesar in Rome,Ela P'aulo arihombola kunena akivoya aikwe rumande muhaka yo k'esi indihololwat'o ni ye Kaisari mwenye Ndo nikilagiza aikwe mo rumande muhaka nindihodima kumuhirika ko kwa Kaisari
Agrippa said to Festus I would like to hear this man too,Bai ye Agiripa akimwamba Fesito Mimi pia nahendza nimusirikize yuyu mwanamulume Fesito akidzigidzya akiamba Undamusikira machero
The next day Agrippa and Bernice came to the meeting with great show acting like very important people They entered the room with military leaders and important men of the city Festus ordered the soldiers to bring Paul in,Bai siku ya hiriye Agiripa na Berinike makudza kuno be njerejere zinapigwa ndoo vivii hatha machangira ho hat'u hasirikizwaho maneno Nao were ma hamwenga na at'u maishimiwao kahi za wo mudzi Bai Fesito akilagiza kukala P'aulo arefwe
Festus said King Agrippa and all of you gathered here with us you see this man All the Jewish people here and in Jerusalem have complained to me about him When they complain about him they shout that he should be killed,Arihorefwa Fesito akiamba Muthawali Agiripa na at'u osini murio haha naswi munamona yuno mut'u yuno O Ayahudi osi a Jerusalemu na a haha Kaisaria makudzanipasha habari dzulu za mut'u yuyu Mapiga k'ululu kuamba mut'u yuyu be k'avirya kukala moyo
When I judged him I did not find him guilty of any crime worthy of death But he asked to be judged by Caesar so I decided to send him to Rome,Ela mimi be naona kukala k'ahendere kosa ra kumup'a adhabu ya kifwa ela kwa kukala wavoya ii k'esi ikasirikizwe ni ye Kaisari mwenye naona mut'u mimi baha nimuhirike ko kwa ye Kaisari
However I dont really know what to tell Caesar that this man has done wrong So I have brought him before all of youespecially you King Agrippa I hope that you can question him and give me something to write to Caesar,Mimi be sina ra kumuorera ye Kaisari dzulu za mut'u yuyu kwa vizho nidzamureha haha mbere zenu nyosi haswa nidzamureha mberezo uwe Muthawali Agiripa kwamba undihokala udzagachunguza gaga maneno nipate ut'u wa kwandhika
I think it is foolish to send a prisoner to Caesar without making some charges against him,Kwani naona si vidzo kumuhirika mufungwa hasiho kunyesa wazi adzashithakiwa na makosa gani
Agrippa said to Paul You may now speak to defend yourself Paul raised his hand to get their attention and began to speak,Bai muthawali Agiripa akimwamba P'aulo H'aya hudzakup'a ruhusa dzihehere Ndo P'aulo akiavungira mukono na akikwatya kudzihehera akiamba
He said King Agrippa I feel fortunate that I can stand here before you today and answer all the charges these Jews have made against me,Muthawali Agiripa mut'u mimi be nadziona kukala nina bahathi sana kuima mberezo vivi rero na kudzihehera na gago gosi nirigo naambwa nago ni o Ayahudi
I am very happy to talk to you because you know so much about all the Jewish customs and the things the Jews argue about Please listen to me patiently,Haswa na bahathi kwa viryahu ambazho uwe mwenye unagamanya t'ot'ot'o go maadha gosi ga Ayahudi na zo tofauti zao kwa vizho nakuvoya vichadimikika uvumirire na unisirikize
All the Jews know about my whole life They know the way I lived from the beginning in my own country and later in Jerusalem,K'ahana Muyahudi hatha mumwenga ariye k'amanya mitoere yangu hangu uthana wangu hatha vivi Kila mut'u anamanya kula hangu chaho viryahu mitoere yangu irizhokala hangu ko kwehu T'ariso na ko Jerusalemu
These Jews have known me for a long time If they want to they can tell you that I was a good Pharisee And the Pharisees obey the laws of the Jewish religion more carefully than any other group,O at'u madzanimanya miaka minji kukala mimi naishi here mwanachama wa chama cha Mafarisayo ambacho ndo chenye sheria k'omu zaidhi Na makihendza manadima kukwambira dzulu za gaga
Now I am on trial because I hope for the promise that God made to our fathers,Vino bai ni haha nanena k'esi kwa ut'u wa th'amaa yangu niriyo nayo dzulu za gago ambago Mulungu waalaga o akare ehu
This is the promise that all the twelve tribes of our people hope to receive For this hope the Jews serve God day and night My king the Jews have accused me because I hope for this same promise,Ahadi ii ya at'u kufufulwa ndo iahendyayo at'u a zo mbari zehu kumi na mbiri makale na th'amaa nayo Ndosa manamuhumikira Mulungu kwa chadi usiku na mutsana Nami bai ninashithakiwa ni o Ayahudi kwa kukala nina th'amaa iyo h'ewe muheshimiwa Muthawali
Why do you people think it is impossible for God to raise people from death,Kwanoni munaona vikomu kukuluhira kukala Mulungu anadima kufufula at'u
I used to think that I should do everything I could against Jesus from Nazareth,Kunena wo ujeri mimi mwenye be nakala naona nihende zhosi nadimazho kuripinga ro dzina ra Jesu wa Nazareth'i
And thats what I did beginning in Jerusalem The leading priests gave me the authority to put many of Gods people in jail And when they were being killed I agreed that it was a good thing,Nazho vizho ndo nirizhohenda zhenye kuko Jerusalemu Nap'ewa wadimi ni o alombi abomu nami nikiagwira o at'u a Mulungu na nikiangiza kifungoni na marihokala manahukumiwa kwalagwa napiga k'ura yangu kukala malagwe
I visited all the synagogues and punished them trying to make them curseJesus My anger against these people was so strong that I went to other cities to find them and punish them,Nangira kahi za masinagogi k'ana nyinji kuhakikisha manangizwa akili na nahenda zhosi nadimazho kualazimisha mamukufuru Mulungu Ut'u uu were udzanihayusa tha nichenda kahi za midzi ya kure kwendaadengereka na kuatesa
One time the leading priests gave me permission and the authority to go to the city of Damascus,Bai nirihokala nichere na gago nagerwa ruhusa na malagizo ni o alombi abomu nami nikiuka kwenda Damesiki
On the way there at noon I saw a light from heaven brighter than the sun It shined all around me and those traveling with me,Vikara mo ngirani murongo wa dzuwa ra vitswani naona mulangaza h'ewe muthawali kula ko dzulu mulunguni Mulangaza uwo were unang'ala hatha ro dzuwa kuuya nyuma Bai wanipiga mimi na o andzangu huriokala hu charoni hosini
We all fell to the ground Then I heard a voice talking to me in Aramaic The voice said Saul Saul why are you persecuting me You are only hurting yourself by fighting me,Naswi hosi hukigwa ho ts'i na nikisikira sauthi ya mut'u ikinena nami kwa Kieburania ikiamba Sauli Sauli mbona unanitesa Unapiga hala k'onjo uwe
I said Who are you Lord,Bai nikiuza nikiamba Ndiwe h'ani kwani we Bwana Ye Bwana akidzigidzya akiamba Ndimi Jesu ye umutesaye
Stand up I have chosen you to be my servant You will tell people about mewhat you have seen today and what I will show you This is why I have come to you,Vikara vivi ungarara uime na magulugo Kwani mimi nidzakwambolera ili nikutsagule ukale muhumiki wangu na uambire at'u zho udzizhozhona na kidza uambire na garyahu nindigokwanyesa
I will keep you safe from your own people and from the nonJewish people the ones I am sending you to,Nindakuthizha kula kwa ao at'uo enye na kula kwa o at'u mario si Ayahudi Mimi ninakuhuma kuko kwa at'u ao
You will make them able to understand the truth They will turn away from darkness to the light They will turn away from the power of Satan and they will turn to God Then their sins can be forgiven and they can be given a place among Gods peoplethose who have been made holy by believing in me,ili ukaang'aze matso na uagaluze mambole kizani mangire mulangazani na kidza uamboze kula kwa nguvu za Shethani na mamugalukire Mulungu ili kwa kunikuluhira mimi madime kusamehewa dambi zao na makale mana hat'u kahi za ao at'u mariotsagulwa ni Mulungu
Paul continued speaking King Agrippa after I had this vision from heaven I obeyed it,Kwa vizho bai h'ewe Muthawali Agiripa gago maono ga mulunguni be nagatii kamare
I began telling people to change their hearts and lives and turn back to God And I told them to do what would show that they had really changed I went first to people in Damascus Then I went to Jerusalem and to every part of Judea and told the people there I also went to the nonJewish people,Bai kwandza kamare nikiahubiri o at'u ko Damesiki na ko Jerusalemu na kila hat'u kahi za yo ts'i ya Judea na kidza nikiahubiri o at'u mario si Ayahudi nao Naahubiri nikiambira kukala manavirya mathubu na mamugalukire Mulungu na mahende mahendo gandigonyesa kukala madzathubu jeri
This is why the Jews grabbed me and were trying to kill me at the Temple,Vizho bai ndo virizhoahenda o Ayahudi manigwire kahi za wo muhala wa ro Hekalu na majeze kunalaga
But God helped me and he is still helping me today With Gods help I am standing here today and telling all people what I have seen But I am saying nothing new I am saying only what Moses and the prophets said would happen,Ela Mulungu adzaenderera kunaviza hatha vivi rero na ndosa niimire haha kumboza ushahidhi kwa at'u osi abomu kwa athithe Mut'u mimi sinena mangine hasihokala gago garigoambwa ni o manabii na Musa kukala gandahendeka
They said that the Messiah would die and be the first to rise from death They said that he would bring the light of Gods saving truthto the Jewish people and to the nonJewish people,nago ni gago ga kukala ye Masihi andateseka na andakala wa kwandza kufufuka kula kifwani na andaambiriza o Ayahudi na o at'u mario si Ayahudi dzulu za wo mulangaza wa wokolwi
While Paul was still defending himself Festus shouted Paul you are out of your mind Too much study has made you crazy,Bai P'aulo arihokala anaenderera kudzihehera ye Fesito wapiga k'ululu akimutsindza ludhimi akiamba Una vilalu we P'aulo Yo elimuyo nyinji idzakuhayusa
Paul said Most Honorable Festus I am not crazy What I am saying is true It all makes perfect sense,P'aulo akidzigidzya akiamba Sina vilalu bule muheshimiwa Fesito zho ninenazho be ni ujeri uhuhu
King Agrippa knows about all this and I can speak freely to him I know that he has heard about these things because they happened where everyone could see them,Ye Muthawali Agiripa anagamanya t'ot'ot'o gaga nami nadima kunena naye wazi-wazi hasiho woga na namanya kamare kukala k'ahana hatha mwenga ridziromukira mana maut'u gaga k'agahenderwe njamani bule
King Agrippa do you believe what the prophets wrote I know you believe,Naamba we muthawali Agiripa unaakuluhira o manabii Nimanyazho ni kwamba unaakuluhira
King Agrippa said to Paul Do you think you can persuade me to become a Christfollower so easily,Kusikira vizho ye Agiripa akimwamba P'aulo Vino be unaona kukala unadima kunihendya Mumasihia kwa muda mufuti namuna ii
Paul said It is not important if it is easy or if it is hard I pray to God that not only you but that everyone listening to me today could be saved and be just like meexcept for these chains I have,P'aulo akidzigidzya akiamba Vindahala muda mure hedu mufuti mino simanya Nivoyacho kwa Mulungu ni uwe na si uwe h'akeyo thu ela hatha aa angine osi mario mananisirikiza vivi rero mukale dza mimi isihokala ii minyororo thu
King Agrippa Governor Festus Bernice and all the people sitting with them stood up,Bai ye muthawali na ye luwali na ye Berinike na osini mariokala makeresi hamwenga nao marungarara
and left the room They were talking to each other They said This man has done nothing worthy of being put to death or even put in jail,na machambola mo chumbani bai wakathi manasumurira ao h'akiyao maamba Mut'u yuyu k'ahenda ut'u wowosi uwi ambawo unadima kumuhendya alagwe hedu hatha kufungwa jela
And Agrippa said to Festus We could let him go free but he has asked to see Caesar,Gonya Agiripa akimwamba Fesito Kala si zho zha kukala yuyu mwanamulume wavoya ahirikwe ko kwa Kaisari be hatha akarichwa huru
It was decided that we would sail for Italy An army officer named Julius who served in the emperors special army was put in charge of guarding Paul and some other prisoners on the trip,Vikara Fesito arihoamba kukala fundakwenda Italiya ye P'aulo hamwenga na afungwa angine maikwa mikononi mwa mubomu mumwenga wa shikari aifwaye Juliasi ambaye were ni mubomu wa kikosi kiifwacho Kikosi cha Kaisari
We got on a ship from the city of Adramyttium that was ready to sail to different places in Asia Aristarchus a man from Thessalonica in Macedonia went with us,Bai fuchangira chombo kiricho were kila bandari ya Aduramutino na kindakira na bandari za jimbo ra Asia Kwa vizho fuchangira naswi thiswi fukiandza charo chehu Kahi za charo kiki were fu hamwenga na Mumak'edonia wa kula Th'esalonike aifwaye Arisitariko
The next day we came to the city of Sidon Julius was very good to Paul and gave him freedom to go visit his friends there who gave him whatever he needed,Bai siku ya hiriye fuchangira bandari ya Sidoni na Juliasi akimuhendera vidzo ye P'aulo mana wamuruhusu ende kwa asenae ili akadime kupata mahitajige
We left that city and sailed close to the island of Cyprus because the wind was blowing against us,Vikara kula ho Sidoni fwangira chomboni kaheri na huchendakira na luhande lwa Kuporo ambalo k'aluerekeza p'eho mana lo luhande lungine were zo p'eho zinadza na nguvu zaidhi
We went across the sea by Cilicia and Pamphylia Then we came to the city of Myra in Lycia,Bai ndiswi vivii muhaka hukivuka bahari ya k'anda za Kilikia na P'amufulia fuchangira bandari ya Mura ambawo ni mudzi uriwo ko Lukia
There the army officer found a ship from the city of Alexandria that was going to Italy So he put us on it,Kuko Mura ye mubomu wa shikari wapata chombo cha kula Alekizandiria kiricho were kinenda Italiya kwa vizho akifuhala akifwangiza kahi za cho chombo kicho
We sailed slowly for many days It was hard for us to reach the city of Cnidus because the wind was blowing against us We could not go any farther that way so we sailed by the south side of the island of Crete near Salmone,K'uzhona zho ndiswi p'ore-p'ore vivi kuno funapata thabu jeri-jeri hatha fukifika hehi na bandari ya Kinido Vivi zhahala siku nyinji zenye Vikara p'eho zirihokala k'azihurusu fuenderere kwenda luhande lulo fwakwenda na luhande lwa kisiwa cha K'irete hehi na Salimone Luhande lulu were k'aluerekeza p'eho bule
We sailed along the coast but the sailing was hard Then we came to a place called Safe Harbors near the city of Lasea,Bai hukiambala-mbala haho hatha hukifika hat'u haifwaho Bandari Mbidzo na hehi na haho here hana mudzi uifwao Lasea
We had lost much time and it was now dangerous to sail because it was already after the Jewish day of fastingSo Paul warned them,Kufikira wakathi uu were muda munji udzatsuhika sana na vikikala ni hathari kuenderera na cho charo kwa kukala wo wakathi wa sherehe ya Mufungowere wagonya kukira kare Kwa vizho P'aulo akiambira kimbere akiamba
Men I can see that there will be a lot of trouble on this trip The ship everything in it and even our lives may be lost,Alume mut'u mimi naona kukala kiki charo chehu kindafwangiza hasara yo mizigo nikwenda ikatsuhika na hatha go maisha gehu nago dzazho
But the captain and the owner of the ship did not agree with Paul So the army officer accepted what they said instead of believing Paul,Ela ye mubomu wa shikari k'agagwirire bule gago ga P'aulo hat'uhe akithuwa gago ga ye dhereva wa cho chombo na go ga ye mwenye cho chombo
Also that harbor was not a good place for the ship to stay for the winter so most of the men decided that we should leave there They hoped we could reach Phoenix where the ship could stay for the winter Phoenix was a city on the island of Crete It had a harbor that faced southwest and northwest,Vikara kwa kukala yo bandari were si mbidzo wakathi uwo wa mwaka anji ehu maamba futhuwe kuenderera na cho charo chehu ngaa hufike bandari ya Fonike na fukaukize kuko wo wakathi wa p'eho ya mwaka Fonike were ni bandari iriyo kuko K'irete nayo were inalolana na mutserero wa dzuwa
Then a good wind began to blow from the south The men on the ship thought This is the wind we wanted and now we have it So they pulled up the anchor We sailed very close to the island of Crete,Vikara hurihokala huchere hu haho kwakwatya kupiga kapeho kadzo kula kwa mwaka k'uzhona zho makiona zho madzizhokala manavimala madzavipata bai makiyusa yo nanga na machenda na mo k'anda-k'anda za K'irete
But then a very strong wind called the Northeaster came from across the island,Bai k'avitoere kukidza luvutho lubomu lwa p'eho luifwalo Yurakulo nalo lwapiga kula ko luhande lwa K'irete
This wind took the ship and carried it away The ship could not sail against the wind so we stopped trying and let the wind blow us,K'uzhona zho cho chombo kikipigwa ni lo luvutho na kikikala k'akidima kwenda ko ludzirirako lo lupeho kwa vizho fukikiricha vizho kithuwe kukokotwa ni lo luvutho
We went below a small island named Cauda With the island protecting us from the wind we were able to bring in the lifeboat but it was very hard to do,Bai ndiswi vivii hatha hukifika hehi na kisiwa kithithe kiifwacho Kauda nacho chahuziza na lulo luvutho vichache na hukigwira ko kadau karikokala gadzafungwa ko nyuma ya cho chombo ela be zhakala zha gada
After the men brought the lifeboat in they tied ropes around the ship to hold it together The men were afraid that the ship would hit the sandbanks of Syrtis So they lowered the sail and let the wind carry the ship,Vikara o anaalume makikangiza mo chomboni ko kadau makikafunga gonya cho chombo makikilinga-linga nyugwe makikifunga ndzi-ndzi-ndzi ili kikale kinasita Kidza makivitharamusha zho zhandharua mana were mana wasiwasi nikwenda cho chombo kikafuswa na kikendakwama kahi za wo mutsanga wa yo p'wani ya Siriti Bai makivitharamusha makithuwa kukiricha chende na yo p'eho cho chombo
The next day the storm was blowing against us so hard that the men threw some things out of the ship,Lola lo luvutho lwaenderera kupiga thu K'uzhona zho siku ya hiriye o mabaharia makikwatya kuihala yo mizigo na kuitsuha mo madzini
A day later they threw out the ships equipment,H'aya yo siku iriyothuwiriza makihala zho viya zha cho chombo na makivitsuha mo madzini nazho
For many days we could not see the sun or the stars The storm was very bad We lost all hope of staying alivewe thought we would die,Bai zakira siku nyinji k'afuona dzuwa hedu nyenyezi na lo luvutho lwere lunaenderera thu k'uzhona zho hukikala k'afuna th'amaa kaheri ya kuthia
The men did not eat for a long time Then one day Paul stood up before them and said Men I told you not to leave Crete You should have listened to me Then you would not have all this trouble and loss,Vikara o at'u magonya siku nyinji zenye bila kudona kit'u K'uzhona zho P'aulo akiima kahikahi zao akiamba Alume kalaho mwagagwira go gangu kuryahu K'irete kukala fusiuke bule kuko ngere k'amukapatire mashaka gaga gosi hedu hasara ii muipatayo
But now I tell you to be happy None of you will die but the ship will be lost,Ela vivi bai namuvoya mudzip'e moyo mana k'ahana hatha mumwenga wenu haha andiyefwa yo meli h'akeye ndo indiyongamika
Last night an angel came to me from Godthe God I worship and belong to,Mana usiku wa kulamukira rero yuyahu Mulungu ambaye mimi ni mut'uwe adzahuma malaikawe kwangu mimi muhumikiwe Bai adzihokudza akaima hehi nami
The angel said Paul dont be afraid You must stand before Caesar And God has given you this promise He will save the lives of all those sailing with you,akaamba Usogohe bule P'aulo uwe suthi uime mbere za Kaisari na kidza lola iye Mulungu kwa zo mbazize andaahenda aa osini urio charoni nao mathie
So men there is nothing to worry about I trust God and I am sure everything will happen just as his angel told me,Kwa vizho bai dzip'eni moyo alume kwa kukala nakuluhira kukala vizho adzizhoamba Mulungu be ndizho vindizhokala zhenye
But we will crash on an island,Ela hatha hamwenga na vizho k'ahana vingine hasihokala hundatsufwa kahi za kisiwa fulani thu
On the fourteenth night we were still being blown around in the Adriatic Sea The sailors thought we were close to land,Bai urihofika usiku wa kumi na ne at'u siswi were fuchere hunakokotwa ni lo luvutho thu Bai fwakokotwa kuku na kuku kahi za yo bahari ya Adiria K'uzhona zho inafika here usiku wa manane aryahu mabaharia maelelya kukala fudzafika hehi na ts'i furufu
They threw a rope into the water with a weight on the end of it They found that the water was 120 feetdeep They went a little farther and threw the rope in again It was 90 feetdeep,Kwa vizho makihala lugwe ambalo lwere ludzafungwa kit'u kiziho makilutharamusha mapime chamba hana wina wa kiasi chani Bai marihopima maona kukala ho hat'u were hana wina wa futi gana na mirongo miri Makiima-ima gonya makipima kaheri makipata kukala ho furihokala were hana wina wa futi mirongo chenda thu
The sailors were afraid that we would hit the rocks so they threw four anchors into the water Then they prayed for daylight to come,Bai kwa ut'u wa kuogoha p'ore makagwizanywa na ho mbararani mahala zo nanga ne na makizitharamusha mo madzini na makivoya ngee kuche
Some of the sailors wanted to leave the ship and they lowered the lifeboat to the water They wanted the other men to think that they were throwing more anchors from the front of the ship,Vikara aryahu mabaharia makijeza kuchimbira makidzihendesha manendagwaga nanga wo upande wa mbere wa cho chombo Makihala karyahu kadau kathithe ka kudzithizhira na makikala manakatharamusha mo madzini machimbire
But Paul told the army officer and the other soldiers If these men do not stay in the ship you will lose all hope of survival,Kuona vizho P'aulo akimwamba ye mubomu wa shikari hamwenga na o shikari enye akiamba Aa mabaharia kala k'amandathuwa kukala mumu chomboni be k'amundathia bule
So the soldiers cut the ropes and let the lifeboat fall into the water,Bai o shikari makihala zo nyugwe ambazo were zidzafungirwa ko kadau makizitosa na makikaricha kagwe mo madzini kende
Just before dawn Paul began persuading all the people to eat something He said For the past two weeks you have been waiting and watching You have not eaten for 14 days,Vikara kurihokala kunenda kuchani P'aulo waasitira o at'u mumo chomboni marye chakurya Bai wanena akiamba Hangu muandze kulolera chamba kundakalani hatha vivi rero ni siku kumi na ne nanwi k'amudzangwe kudona chochosi
Now I beg you to eat something You need it to stay alive None of you will lose even one hair off your heads,Bai ninamuvoya murye chakurya mana kicho ndo kindichomuthizha Mana haha be k'ahana mut'u hatha mumwenga andiyengamiza hatha ludzere lumwenga lwenye mo kitswani mwakwe
After he said this Paul took some bread and thanked God for it before all of them He broke off a piece and began eating,Arihogonya kunena vivi akihala mukahe akimboza muvera kwa Mulungu kuno osi mana lola gonya akiumogola na akikwatya kurya
All the men felt better and started eating too,Ndo nao bai machangira moyo na makikwatya kurya
There were 276 people on the ship,Hosini mo chomboni were fu at'u magana mairi na mirongo mifungahe na ahandahu
We ate all we wanted Then we began making the ship lighter by throwing the grain into the sea,Vikara kila mut'u arihokala adzarya kwakuha o at'u mahala yo ngano na makiitsuha mo baharini ili cho chombo kikale kishushu
When daylight came the sailors saw land but they did not know what land it was They saw a bay with a beach and wanted to sail the ship to the beach if they could,Bai kurihocha aryahu mabaharia k'amamanyire chamba mere ma ts'i yani ela maona mukono wa yo bahari uriwo were una nyangamo yenye mutsanga munji Kwa vizho makiamua kwendachanganya kuko cho chombo
So they cut the ropes to the anchors and left the anchors in the sea At the same time they untied the ropes that were holding the rudders Then they raised the front sail into the wind and sailed toward the beach,Ndo makizihala ziryahu nyugwe zirizokala zidzazulia zo nanga na makizitosa makiziricha zo nanga zihohe mo baharini Makiziregeza zo nyugwe zirizokala zidzazulia yo sukani makihala cho chandharuwa kirichokala ko mbere makikifunga ili p'eho idime kukisukuma bai makikwatya kwenda ko nyangamoni
But the ship hit a sandbank The front of the ship stuck there and could not move Then the big waves began to break the back of the ship to pieces,Ela kahi za kwenda ko nyangamoni cho chombo chafika hat'u hariho were hathunganana mikono miri ya bahari na kidza k'ahana wina bai kichendazikika haho na ko kwa mbere uno upande wa nyuma wo ukikala unabandwa-bandwa ni maimbi
The soldiers decided to kill the prisoners so that none of the prisoners could swim away and escape,Kuona vizho o shikari makipanga kualaga osi o afungwa ili hasikaleho na yoyosi kupiga go madzi na kuchimbira
But Julius the army officer wanted to let Paul live So he did not allow the soldiers to kill the prisoners He told the people who could swim to jump into the water and swim to land,Ela yuyahu mubomu wa shikari were anahendza amuthizhe P'aulo kwa vizho akiamba masihende vizho bule hat'uhe akiambira aryahu osini ambao manadima kupiga madzi makale a kwandza kudzitsuha mo madzini na mapige madzi mende ko ts'i furufu
The others used wooden boards or pieces of the ship And this is how all the people went safely to land,O angine mandathuwiriza ela kwa kuhenda kugwira mbao hedu zho visiku zha cho chombo kidzichobandika Bai kwa ngira ii hosini fwathiya na hukifika ts'i furufu azima
When we were safe on land we learned that the island was called Malta,Bai furihokala fudzathiya na fu kuko nyangamoni haho ndo furihomanyira kukala cho kisiwa kinaifwa Malita
The people who lived there were very good to us It was raining and very cold so they built a fire and welcomed all of us,O at'u matoao kahi za cho kisiwa kicho mahukaribisha t'ot'ot'o sana Vikara wakathi uwo were kunanya vula na kuna p'eho ya kuzizima bai o at'u a cho kisiwa makikot'a kome ra moho na makihukaribisha hosini
Paul gathered a pile of sticks for the fire He was putting the sticks on the fire and a poisonous snake came out because of the heat and bit him on the hand,Badaye P'aulo achendamala ndodo vikara arihokala anazigwaga-gwaga ho mohoni kwambola nyoka ariyekala adzakolwa ni ro theri na akimuluma kidza akidzilinga-linga mo mukononi mwakwe
When the people living on the island saw the snake hanging from his hand they said This man must be a murderer He did not die in the sea but Justicedoes not want him to live,K'uzhona zho o at'u a cho kisiwa marihomona ye mududu analewa-lewa mo mukononi mwa P'aulo manena o enye na enye makiamba Mut'u yuyu suthi akale ni mwalagi thu mana yudzathia jeri na yo bahari ela ko yo Hachik'aindamuricha akale moyo bule
But Paul shook the snake off into the fire and was not hurt,Ela P'aulo bai wamuthiva ho mohoni ye mududu na k'asikirire chochosi
The people thought he would swell up or fall down dead They waited and watched him for a long time but nothing bad happened to him So they changed their opinion They said He is a god,Enye were manaona kukala andakwatya kukanang'ana hedu andagwa kare afwe ela marihololera muda mure wenye na k'akuna rorosi rii rikalaro kwa P'aulo magaluza na makikwatya kuamba ye P'aulo ni mulungu
There were some fields around that same area They were owned by a man named Publius the most important Roman official on the island He welcomed us into his home and was very good to us We stayed in his house for three days,Vikara hehi na haho were hana minda ya iye mubomu wa cho kisiwa ambaye were anaifwa P'abulio Mut'u yuyu P'abulio be wahukaribishat'o sana na huchendakala ajenie kwa muda wa siku t'ahu
Publius father was very sick He had a fever and dysentery but Paul went to him and prayed for him He laid his hands on the man and healed him,Wakathi uwo babaye P'abulio were a kitandani k'adima mana were ana homa na ndani ya kumwaga milatso Bai P'aulo wangira mo mwakwe chumbani akimuvoyera gonya akimuikira mikono naye akihola
After this happened all the other sick people on the island came to Paul and he healed them too,K'uzhona zho kudzahendeka kit'u kiki o akongo angine osi a cho kisiwa makudza na makihozwa
We stopped at the city of Syracuse We stayed there three days and then left,H'aya ndiswi vivii hatha hukifika mudzi wa Sirakusi na hukikala kuko kwa muda wa siku t'ahu
We came to the city of Rhegium The next day a wind began to blow from the southwest so we were able to leave A day later we came to the city of Puteoli,Furihouka haho Sirakusi fwakwenda vivii muhaka Regiamu Siku ya hiriye ko Regiamu yo p'eho ya kwa mwaka ikikwatya kupiga jeri-jeri kwa vizho fukiuka ndiswi vivii hatha inapiga siku ya hiri fukikala fudzafika bandari ya Puteoli
We found some believers there who asked us to stay with them a week Finally we came to Rome,Bai kuko Puteoli fukiona ndugu nao makifukaribisha hutoe hamwenga nao kwa muda wa wiki mwenga ndo badaye hukifika Rumi
The brothers and sisters in Rome heard about us and came out to meet us at the Market of Appiusand at the Three InnsWhen Paul saw these believers he thanked God and felt encouraged,K'uzhona zho aryahu ndugu marihosikira uvoro wehu ko Rumi mambola makihudhana Makudza vivii muhaka hat'u haifwaho Soko ra Apio angine o makidzahutharizira hat'u haifwaho Hot'eli T'ahu Bai P'aulo arihoaona o at'u wamwambozera muvera Mulungu na akidzisikira adzapata moyo
When we came to Rome Paul was allowed to live alone But a soldier stayed with him to guard him,Vikara furihofika ko Rumi ye P'aulo wap'ewa ruhusa aishi hat'u h'akeye na akiikirwa shikari wa kumurinda ili asichimbire
Three days later Paul sent for some of the most important Jews When they came together he said My brothers I have done nothing against our people or against the customs of our fathers But I was arrested in Jerusalem and handed over to the Romans,Bai bada ya siku t'ahu P'aulo waaiha hamwenga o vilongozi a Kiyahudi na marihokala madzakundzumanyika hamwenga akiambira Ndugu zangu mut'u mimi nagwirwa ko Jerusalemu na nikilazhwa kwa Arumi dza here mufungwa idzaho were sihendere ut'u uwi kinyume na o at'u ehu hedu kinyume cha go maadha hurigogahokera kula kwa o akare ehu
They asked me many questions but they could not find any reason why I should be put to death So they wanted to let me go free,Bai o vilongozi a Kirumi makinuza-nuza maswali na makiona kukala sina kosa ra kunihenda nalagwe kwa vizho makikala manamala kuniricha huru
But the Jews there did not want that So I had to ask to come to Rome to have my trial before Caesar That doesnt mean I am accusing my people of doing anything wrong,Ela bai o Ayahudi makikala ma kinyume na gaga kwa vizho nikikala sina vingine hasihokala kuvoya nihirikwe kwa Kaisari mwenye idzaho were sina ut'u wowosi wa kudzaashithakira o at'u a kwangu enye
That is why I wanted to see you and talk with you I am bound with this chain because I believe in the hope of Israel,Bai kiki ndo chausa cha mimi kumwiha hudze huonane na husumurire mana nidzafungwa minyororo ii kwa ut'u wa iye ariye siswi Aiziraeli hudzamukuluhira
The Jews answered Paul We have received no letters from Judea about you None of our Jewish brothers who have traveled from there brought news about you or told us anything bad about you,Marihosikira vizho makimudzigidzya makiamba At'u siswi k'ahudzapata baruwa yoyosi kula ko Judea iriyo inakuhadza uwe na pia k'ahana yoyosi kahi za o ndugu mariokudza kula kuko ariyereha uvoro wowosi hedu kudzakuhadza uwe kivii
We want to hear your ideas We know that people everywhere are speaking against this new group,Ela siswi hunamala husikire gago urigo nago mo kitswani mwako mana humanyazho ni kwamba kundi riri ambaro uwe u mumo be rinakanaizwa ni at'u kila hat'u
Paul and the Jews chose a day for a meeting On that day many more of these Jews met with Paul at his house He spoke to them all day long explaining Gods kingdom to them He used the Law of Moses and the writings of the prophets to persuade them to believe in Jesus,K'uzhona bai makimup'a mbadha Bai mbadha iyo irihofika at'u anji makwenda haho arihokala anakala P'aulo naye P'aulo waaeleza na kuagunulira lwazu dzulu za uthawali wa Mulungu kulaiza madzach'a muhaka dziloni Akijeza kuashawishi maukubali wo uvoro wa Jesu kwa kuhumira Sheria ya Musa na Maoro ga o manabii
Some of the Jews believed what he said but others did not believe,Angine kahi zao makikubali go manenoge ela angine k'amakuluhirire bule
They had an argument among themselves and were ready to leave But Paul said one more thing to them The Holy Spirit spoke the truth to your fathers through Isaiah the prophet He said,Kwa vizho makiuka kuno mananenezana o enye kwa enye Vikara kabila k'amadzafumukana P'aulo were adzanena nao akaamba Gago arigonena ye Roho Mweri kukirira kwa nabii Isaya kuambiriza o akare ehu be were ni jeri
Go to this people and tell them,Kwani waamba
Yes the minds of these people are now closed,Mana mioyo ya at'u aa idzakala mikomu
I want you Jews to know that God has sent his salvation to the nonJewish people They will listen,Bai P'aulo akimarigiza kwa kuamba H'aya manyani vivi bai kukala uvoro dzulu za wokolwi wa Mulungu unahirikwa kwa o at'u mario si Ayahudi nao bai mandausikira
Paul stayed two full years in his own rented house He welcomed all the people who came and visited him,Bai P'aulo wakeresi haho miaka miri mizima kahi za nyumba ariyoikodisha ye mwenye na akiakaribisha osini mariokwendamutsemberera
He told them about Gods kingdom and taught them about the Lord Jesus Christ He was very bold and no one tried to stop him from speaking,Mut'u iye wakala anahubiri dzulu za wo uthawali wa Mulungu na kuafundisha at'u dzulu za Bwana Jesu Masihi hasiho woga hedu kuzizwa ni mut'u yoyosi
Greetings from Paul a servant of Christ Jesus,Baruwa ii ila kwangu mimi P'aulo muhumiki wa Masihi Jesu Mulungu wanitsagula nikale muhumwi na akinithenga k'anda ili nihubiri uwo Uvorowe Udzo
God promised long ago through his prophets in the Holy Scriptures to give this Good News to his people,Mulungu walaga hangu kapindi kukala andafurehera uwo Uvoro Udzo Naye walaga kukirira kwa manabii a kwakwe kahi za Maoroge maeri
Through Christ God gave me the special work of an apostleto lead people of all nations to believe and obey him I do all this to honor Christ,Kukirira kwa iye Jesu Masihi Mulungu wafup'a nema kwa kuhutsagula hukale ahumwi Na vivi zhakala ili fukadime kuahendya at'u osi mario si Ayahudi mamukuluhire na kumusikira Jesu Masihi kwa ut'u wa nguma ya dzinare
You are some of those who have been chosen to belong to Jesus Christ,Na ninwi nanwi mu amwenga ao mwaifwa mukale at'u a Jesu Masihi
This letter is to all of you in Rome God loves you and he has chosen you to be his holy people,Baruwa ii ninamwandhikira ninwi nyosi mutoao Rumi murio Mulungu anamuhendza na wamutsagula mukale at'u a kwakwe aeri
First I want to say that I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you I thank him because people everywhere in the world are talking about your great faith,Kwandza kamare kukirira na kwa Jesu Masihi ninamulazhira muvera Mulungu kwa ut'u wenu nyosi kwani kuluhiro renu rinanenwat'o kila hat'u kahi za urumwengu muzima
Every time I pray I always remember you God knows this is true He is the one I serve with all my heart by telling people the Good News about his Son I pray that I will be allowed to come to you It will happen if God wants it,Ninwi be ninamukumbukira kwenda kila nivoyaho hatha ye Mulungu nimuhumikiraye kwa moyo wangu wosi kahi za Uvoro Udzo wa mwanawe ni shudhia Nami ninavoya Mulungu anip'e nafasi mbidzo ya kudza kuko kwenu vivi Naye akihendza nindakudza
I want very much to see you and give you some spiritual gift to make your faith stronger,Kwani be nina p'ola nanwi sana Ninamala nidze nimup'e kipawa cha roho nanwi Kipawa kicho kindamuhendya mukale na nguvu za kiroho
I mean that I want us to help each other with the faith that we have Your faith will help me and my faith will help you,Nikinena vizho ninaamba kukala hudze hukale hamwenga fwangizane nguvu Mimi nangizwe nguvu ni kuluhiro renu nanwi mwangizwe nguvu ni kuluhiro rangu
Brothers and sisters I want you to know that I have planned many times to come to you but something always happens to change my plans I would like to see the same good result among you that I have had from my work among the other nonJewish people,Ndugu zangu ninahendza mumanye kukala nidzakala nikimala kudza kuko kwenu mara nyinji Ninamala nidze nivuhe at'u mamuthuwe Masihi kula ko kwenu dza viryahu nirizhohenda kare kahi za k'olo nyingine za at'u mario si Ayahudi Ela kila nikimala kudza vivi kunambola ut'u unanithiza
I must serve all peoplethose who share in Greek culture and those who are less civilizedthe educated as well as the ignorant,Kwani kazi iyo ni lazima niihende kwa at'u aa osi kwa at'u madzioenderera na kwa at'u machereo nyuma kwa at'u marioshoma na kwa at'u mario k'amashomere
That is why I want so much to tell the Good News to you there in Rome,Na ndosa hatha nina hamu ya kudzahubiri Uvoro Udzo kwenu pia ninwi at'u mukalao kuko Rumi
I am proud of the Good News because it is the power God uses to save everyone who believesto save the Jews first and now to save those who are not Jews,Mimi sina haya kamare na kuhubiri wo Uvoro Udzo kwa kukala uwo ndiwo nguvu ya Mulungu irehayo wokolwi kwa kila mut'u andiyekuluhira kwandza kwa Ayahudi gonya kwa at'u mario si Ayahudi
The Good News shows how God makes people right with himself Gods way of making people right begins and ends with faith As the Scriptures say The one who is right with God by faith will live forever,Kwani uwo Uvoro Udzo ndiwo unyesao lwazu-lwazu viryahu Mulungu aahendazho anadamu kukala ahachi kwa kukuluhira thu basi Mana Maoro ganaamba Mut'u muhachi andaishi kwa kuluhiro
God shows his anger from heaven against all the evil and wrong things that people do Their evil lives hide the truth they have,Mulungu ananyesa k'oroze lwazu-lwazu kula dzulu mulunguni Naye anazinyesa dzulu za at'u osi athiriri na masiomufwahiza iye kwani uthiriri wa at'u ao unauhendya ujeri wa Mulungu usimanyikane
This makes God angry because they have been shown what he is like Yes God has made it clear to them,At'u aa mandangizwa akili kwa kukala gago madimago kugamanya dzulu za Mulungu ga lwazu kwao mana Mulungu mwenye wagaika lwazu kwao
There are things about God that people cannot seehis eternal power and all that makes him God But since the beginning of the world those things have been easy for people to understand They are made clear in what God has made So people have no excuse for the evil they do,Anadamu madzakala makiona nguvu za Mulungu zisizo na mwisho na kumanya kukala iye ni Mulungu jeri hangu urumwengu uumbwe Vit'u vivi k'avioneka na matso bule ela anadamu madzakala makizhona na kung'alirwa lwazu-lwazu kukirira na zho vit'u arizhoviumba Mulungu Kwa vizho bai k'amadima kudzihehera kamare
People knew God but they did not honor him as God and they did not thank him Their ideas were all useless There was not one good thought left in their foolish minds,Mana vingahokala were manamanya kukala kuna Mulungu k'amamup'ere nguma ya kwakwe bule hedu hatha kumulazhira muvera kwa zhosi aahenderazho Ao mathuwa maazo gao ga kizuzu Kwa vizho mioyo yao ya kutsaelewa ikikaza kutokomea kizani
They said they were wise but they became fools,Enye were manaona kukala ni alachu kudzi ni azuzu
Instead of honoring the divine greatness of God who lives forever they traded it for the worship of idolsthings made to look like humans who get sick and die or like birds animals and snakes,Badala ya kumup'a nguma Mulungu aishiye kare na kare o manavoya vizuka zha at'u mafwao na kuola Kidza manavoya vizuka zha unyama wa kubururuka nyama a kuhambala na nyama a magulu mane
People wanted only to do evil So God left them and let them go their sinful way And so they became completely immoral and used their bodies in shameful ways with each other,Kwa ut'u uwo wenye bai Mulungu akiarichira mahende zho th'amaa zao mbii zirizhoalongoza kahi za mioyo yao Mahenda maut'u maitsi-maitsi gasigo na ishima kahi zao
They traded the truth of God for a lie They bowed down and worshiped the things God made instead of worshiping the God who made those things He is the one who should be praised forever Amen,Mahala wo ujeri wa Mulungu makiuhendya ulongo Makihala vit'u arizhoviumba iye Mulungu makivihumikira na kuvivoya vizho badala ya kumuvoya ye Mulungu ariyeumba urumwengu na ariye nde aviryaye kuhumikirwa na kuvoywa kare na kare H'aami
Because people did those things God left them and let them do the shameful things they wanted to do Women stopped having natural sex with men and started having sex with other women,Kwa ut'u uwo wenye bai Mulungu akithuwa kuaricha mahende maut'u maitsi-maitsi here th'amaa zao zirizhoalagiza Hatha anaache a kwao nao maricha kuhumira miri yao kwa ngira ya kawaida here Mulungu arizhopanga makiihumira kwa ngira iriyo si ya kawaida
In the same way men stopped having natural sex with women and began wanting each other all the time Men did shameful things with other men and in their bodies they received the punishment for those wrongs,Alume nao dzazho badala ya kulala na ache here kawaida madzalwa ni th'amaa za kulala na alume andziyao Alume manahenda maut'u maitsi-maitsi kwa kulala na alume andziyao Na kwa ut'u uwo manangizwa akili here viviryazho kwa gago makosa gao
People did not think it was important to have a true knowledge of God So God left them and allowed them to have their own worthless thinking And so they do what they should not do,Na here marizhoenderera kukahala kumumanya Mulungu Mulungu naye waaricha mathuwe kulongozwa ni zo akili zao mbii mathuwe kuhenda maut'u garigo k'agahendwa bule
They are filled with every kind of sin evil greed and hatred They are full of jealousy murder fighting lying and thinking the worst things about each other They gossip,Madzadzalwa ni kila namuna ya uthiriri Uwi ndani nyalamu mahendo mai kidzitso k'ondo ulongo na nyambo Kidza ni alagi na k'amahendzana bule
and say evil things about each other They hate God They are rude proud and brag about themselves They invent ways of doing evil They dont obey their parents,At'u ao madzamumena Mulungu na k'amaasikira azhazi ao Kazi yao ni kudzionya kuchuka at'u na kuhukana at'u Kila wakathi manavumbula ngira mbisha za kuhendera dambi
they are foolish they dont keep their promises and they show no kindness or mercy to others,Ni azuzu na k'amathimiza vilagane zhao Mana ndani mbii kidza k'amana mbazi na mut'u
They know Gods law says that anyone who lives like that should die But they not only continue to do these things themselves but they also encourage others who do them,Manamanya kukala hukumu ya hachi ya Mulungu ni kukala kila andiyehenda maut'u dza gago anavirya kwalagwa ela ko manaenderera kuhenda gago mai H'aya zho mbai bai manakubaliana na at'u mahendao maut'u dza gago
So do you think that you can judge those other people You are wrong You too are guilty of sin You judge them but you do the same things they do So when you judge them you are really condemning yourself,Musena ukimuhukumu mwandziyo na maut'u ugahendago hatha uwe be manya unadzihukumu mwenye Kwa vizho hatha kala u h'ani kidza k'una ha kudzihehera bule
God judges all who do such things and we know his judgment is right,Funamanya kukala Mulungu akihukumu at'u mahendao mahendo dza gago anahukumu kwa hachi
And since you do the same things as those people you judge surely you understand that God will punish you too How could you think you would be able to escape his judgment,Ela we musena we unahukumu at'u mahendao maut'u ugahendago hatha uwe Vidze unaona undachimbira hukumu ya Mulungu
God has been kind to you He has been very patient waiting for you to change But you think nothing of his kindness Maybe you dont understand that God is kind to you so that you will decide to change your lives,Hedu zho zha kukala Mulungu ni mudzo zhomu kidza anavumirira zhomu we unavivudhya Vidze k'umanya kukala Mulungu anakwanyesa udzowe ili akuhendye uwe uthubu
But you are so stubborn You refuse to change So you are making your own punishment greater and greater You will be punished on the day when God will show his anger On that day everyone will see how right God is to judge people,Ela we una singo nyomu hatha kw'endzi kuthubu Kwa ut'u uwo wenye bai unadzingezera hukumu mwenye ho siku Mulungu andihohukumu at'u kwa hachi na andihorichira k'oro za kwakwe
He will reward or punish everyone for what they have done,Kwani Mulungu andamuriha kila mut'u karakara na mahendoge arigogahenda
Some people live for Gods glory for honor and for life that cannot be destroyed They live for those things by always continuing to do good God will give eternal life to them,At'u mandiomala nguma kula kwa Mulungu na ishima na hali iryahu ya kutsafwa kaheri kwa kuvumirira kahi za kuhenda madzo mandapata uzima wa kare na kare
But others are selfish and refuse to follow truth They follow evil God will show his anger and punish them,Ela at'u mandiothuwa maut'u ga kwao enye makahale kuusikira ujeri mahende maut'u mai Mulungu andamwaga k'oroze dzulu zao
He will give trouble and suffering to everyone who does evilto the Jews first and also to those who are not Jews,Kila mwanadamu ahendaye maut'u mai andapata mateso kuandzira Ayahudi na hatha at'u mario si Ayahudi
But he will give glory honor and peace to everyone who does goodto the Jews first and also to those who are not Jews,Ela osi mandiohenda maut'u madzo Mulungu andaap'a nguma ishima na dheri kuandzira Ayahudi hatha at'u mario si Ayahudi
God judges everyone the same It doesnt matter who they are,Kwani Mulungu k'apendhelea mut'u yoyosi
People who have the law and those who have never heard of the law are all the same when they sin People who dont have the law and are sinners will be lost And in the same way those who have the law and are sinners will be judged by the law,At'u mahendao dambi na k'amana Sheriaya kualongoza mandangamika bila yo Sheria Na at'u mario mana Sheria ya kualongoza makihenda dambi mandahukumiwa ni yo Sheria
Hearing the law does not make people right with God They will be right before him only if they always do what the law says,Kwani at'u masikirao Sheria gonya k'amandaithuwa k'amana hachi bule mbere za Mulungu Ela aryahu mahendao here yo Sheria iambazho mandapata hachi
Those who are not Jews dont have the law But when they naturally do what the law commands without even knowing the law then they are their own law This is true even though they dont have the written law,At'u mario si Ayahudi k'amana Sheria bule Ela makithuwa Sheria kwa ut'u wa udamu wao mananyesa kukala zho iambazho manavimanya kare ingahokala yo Sheria k'amanayo bule
They show that in their hearts they know what is right and wrong the same as the law commands and their consciences agree Sometimes their thoughts tell them that they have done wrong and this makes them guilty And sometimes their thoughts tell them that they have done right and this makes them not guilty,Mananyesa kukala iyo Sheria i mumo mioyoni mwao Na iyo mioyo inaashuhudia kukala vivi ni jeri Kwani wakathi mungine mioyo yao inaashithaki na kuamba Vivi udzizhohenda si karakara bule Na wakathi mungine inaahehera na kuamba Zho udzizhohenda ni karakara
All this will happen on the day when God will judge peoples secret thoughts through Jesus Christ This is part of the Good News that I tell everyone,Na vizho ndizho vindizhokala haho siku Mulungu andihohukumu mioyo ya at'u kukirira kwa Masihi Jesu Na uu Uvoro Udzo nihubirio ndo wambazho
What about you You say you are a Jew You trust in the law and proudly claim to be close to God,Vikara uwe unadziamba kukala u Muyahudi na udzategemea Sheria ikwike kahi za uhusiano mudzo na Mulungu na unanyeth'era uhusiano uriwo nawo na Mulungu
You know what God wants you to do And you know what is important because you have learned the law,Uwe unaamba kukala unamanya zho Mulungu ahendzazho uhende Kidza unamanya ni maut'u gani ga mana gaviryago kuhendwa kwa kukala Sheria yakufundisha kila kit'u
You think you are a guide for people who dont know the right way a light for those who are in the dark,H'aya zho mbai bai uwe una hakika kukala u kilongozi wa at'u masioona na u mulangaza wa at'u mario kizani
You think you can show foolish people what is right And you think you are a teacher for those who are just beginning to learn You have the law and so you think you know everything and have all truth,na kidza una hakika kukala unaamboza at'u uzuzu na u mwalimu wa ana atsanga kwa kukala unamanya wo ujeri wosi wa Mulungu kukirira kwa yo Sheria Kala vivi zhosi unazho ni karakara
You teach others so why dont you teach yourself You tell them not to steal but you yourself steal,Ela uwe uriye kaziyo ni kufundisha at'u andza kudzifundisha mwenye kwandza Vidze unadimadze kumuhubiri mut'u ariche wivi kala uwe mwenye kare u mwivi
You say they must not commit adultery but you yourself are guilty of that sin You hate idols but you steal them from their temples,Vidze unadimadze kumwambira mut'u asizinge kala uwe mwenye unazinga Hedu unadimadze kutsukirirwa vizuka kala uwe mwenye unaiya vit'u kula kahi za mahekalu ga vizuka
You are so proud that you have Gods law but you bring shame to God by breaking his law,H'aya we unyeth'aye kwa kukala una Sheria ya Mulungu vidze unaithuwa hedu unamubandira ishima Mulungu kwa kubanda yo Sheriaye
As the Scriptures say People in other nations insult God because of you,Kwani Maoro ganaamba kukala
If you follow the law then your circumcision has meaning But if you break the law then it is as if you were never circumcised,Ukikala wangizwa lwembeni na unathuwa Sheria kwangizwa lwembeni kwa kwako kuna faidha Ela kala wangizwa lwembeni ela Sheria k'uithuwa u karakara na mut'u ariye k'angizirwe lwembeni
Those who are not Jews are not circumcised But if they do what the law says it is as if they were circumcised,Vidze kala mut'u k'angizirwe lwembeni ela anathuwa Sheria Mulungu k'andamuthala here mut'u ariyengizwa lwembeni
You have the written law and circumcision but you break the law So those who are not circumcised in their bodies but still obey the law will show that you are guilty,Kwa vizho bai aryahu at'u mario k'amangizirwe lwembeni ela manathuwa Sheria mandamupiga ulongo ninwi murio mwangizwa lwembeni na kidza Sheria munayo ela k'amuithuwa bule
You are not a true Jew if you are only a Jew in your physical body True circumcision is not only on the outside of the body,Kwani Uyahudi kamili si sura na hatha kwangizwa lwembeni nako si wo muvano wa ndze uriwo mo mwirini
A true Jew is one who is a Jew inside True circumcision is done in the heart It is done by the Spirit not by the written law And anyone who is circumcised in the heart by the Spirit gets praise from God not from people,Muyahudi kamili ni Muyahudi wa ndani Roho wa Mulungu akingira ndani za moyo wa mut'u na kumugaluza mut'u iye nikukala adzangizwa lwembeni jeri si kwangizwa lwembeni kuthuwana na Sheria ya Kiyahudi Mut'u iye akigonya kugaluzwa k'ana haja na kulikwa ni at'u kaheri hajaye ni alikwe ni Mulungu thu
So do Jews have anything that others dont have Do they get any benefit from being circumcised,H'aya kala ni vizho be o Ayahudi mana baha rani kuakira at'u mario si Ayahudi Vidze ko kwangizwa lwembeni kwa kwao kuna faidha yoyosi
Yes the Jews have many benefits The most important one is this God trusted the Jews with his teachings,Ayahudi mana baha zhomu zhenye kwa kila upande Kwandza kamare ao ndo mariogerwa neno ra Mulungu
It is true that some Jews were not faithful to God But will that stop God from doing what he promised,Hangine angine ao makosa kukala aaminifu kwa Mulungu Ela vidze ko kukosa kukala aaminifu kwa Mulungu kwao kunadima kumuhendya ye Mulungu asikale mwaminifu
No even if everyone else is a liar God will always do what he says As the Scriptures say about him,Hatha bule Hatha kila mudamu akakala mulongo kidza Mulungu ye anathuwa kukala mujeri Kwani Maoro ganaamba kukala
When we do wrong that shows more clearly that God is right So can we say that God does wrong when he punishes us Thats the way some people think,Vikara kala wo uwi wehu unanyesa zho Mulungu arizho na hachi vidze funadima kuamba kukala Mulungu akifwangiza akili ni kukala k'ahenda hachi Ninanena here anadamu manenazho
Of course not If God could not punish us how could he judge the world,Hatha bule kala Mulungu k'ana hachi andadimadze kuuhukumu urumwengu
Someone might say When I lie it really gives God glory because my lie makes his truth easier to see So why am I judged a sinner,Hangine unadima kuamba kukala Kala ulongo wangu ndo uup'ao nguvu nyinji ujeri wa Mulungu na kumup'a iye nguma nyinji ni kwanoni mino nichere ninahukumiwa here mudambi
It would be the same to say We should do evil so that good will come Many people criticize us saying thats what we teach They are wrong and they should be condemned for saying that,Vizho uambazho be ni karakara na kuamba Nafuhende maut'u mai ili maut'u madzo gadime kudza Kuna at'u angine manaamba kukala siswi ndo fuambazho nao mandahukumiwa here viviryazho
So are we Jews better than other people No we have already said that those who are Jews as well as those who are not Jews are the same They are all guilty of sin,Bai mut'u mimi nidzagonya kare kushithaki kukala Ayahudi na at'u mario si Ayahudi osini manathawalwa ni dambi Kwa vizho siswi Ayahudi k'afuna kabaha kokosi kushinda at'u angine
As the Scriptures say,Here Maoro gaambazho
There is no one who understands,K'akuna mut'u amumanyaye Mulungu
They have all turned away from him,At'u osi mamuricha Mulungu
Their words come from mouths that are like open graves,Maneno gao manenago hatha k'agariwa ni mutsango
Their mouths are full of cursing and angry words,Milomo yao ina karama kai na utsungu munji
They are always ready to kill someone,Mana utsangu na kwalaga
Everywhere they go they cause trouble and ruin,Kila hat'u mangiraho mananonga-nonga vit'u
They dont know how to live in peace,Iyo ngira ya dheri k'amaimanya
They have no fear or respect for God,Myoyo yao k'aimwagoha Mulungu
What the law says is for those who are under the law It stops anyone from making excuses And it brings the whole world under Gods judgment,Kufikira haho funamanya kukala iyo Sheria ikinena ut'u wowosi ni kukala inaunena kwa at'u osi mario ts'ini ya Sheria Nayo yaikwa ili Mulungu ahukumuho urumwengu anadamu masikale na visingwa bule ela kila mut'u amboze hesabu ya maut'u gosi arigogahenda
because no one can be made right with God by following the law The law only shows us our sin,Kwani k'akuna mut'u hatha mumwenga adimaye kuhendywa muhachi ni Mulungu kwa kuthuwa Sheria mana Sheria ndiyo imuhendyayo mut'u amanye dambi ni noni
But God has a way to make people right and it has nothing to do with the law He has now shown us that new way which the law and the prophets told us about,Ela vikara Mulungu wafumbozera ngira ya kufuhendya fukale ahachi mbereze bila kuthuwa Sheria Na hatha yo Sheria na mafundisho ga manabii kidza nazho vinanena dzulu za ngira ii
God makes people right through their faith inJesus Christ He does this for all who believe in Christ Everyone is the same,Ngira ii ni kumukuluhira Jesu Masihi Kila mut'u andiyemukuluhira Jesu Masihi Mulungu andamuhendya muhachi hasiho kutofautisha Muyahudi na mut'u ariye si Muyahudi
All have sinned and are not good enough to share Gods divine greatness,Kwani at'u osi mahenda dambi na manahungukirwa ni nguma ya Mulungu
They are made right with God by his grace This is a free gift They are made right with God by being made free from sin through Jesus Christ,Ela kwa nemaye Mulungu nikufuhendya ahachi bule kukirira kwa Masihi Jesu ariyefukombola
So do we have any reason to boast about ourselves No reason at all And why not Because we are depending on the way of faith not on what we have done in following the law,Vidze hana kudzionya jeri ho K'ahana kamare Kitumacho hatha k'afudzionya ni kumukuluhira Jesu si kuthuwa Sheria bule
I mean we are made right with God through faith not through what we have done to follow the law This is what we believe,Na haho ndo fudzihogwirira kukala mut'u ahendywa muhachi ni kumukuluhira Jesu si kuthuwa Sheria
God is not only the God of the Jews He is also the God of those who are not Jews,Hedu yuno Mulungu ni Mulungu wa Ayahudi h'akeye Hatha bule Mulungu ni Mulungu wa at'u osi Ayahudi na at'u mario si Ayahudi
There is only one God He will make Jewsright with him by their faith and he will also make nonJewsright with him through their faith,Na kwa kukala Mulungu ni mumwenga andaahendya ahachi at'u osi kwa kumukuluhira Jesu makakala mangizwa lwembeni hedu k'amadzangizwa lwembeni
So do we destroy the law by following the way of faith Not at all In fact faith causes us to be what the law actually wants,Nikinena vivi siamba kukala yo Sheria fudzaitsuha kwa ko kukuluhira Hatha ko kukuluhira kunainula yo Sheria
So what can we say about Abraham the father of our people What did he learn about faith,Vidze fuambedze dzulu za Burahemu ariye babiyehu kwa maut'u ga mwiri Vidze ye wavumbulani dzulu za maut'u gano
If Abraham was made right by the things he did he had a reason to boast about himself But God knew different,Kala ye Burahemu be wahendywa muhachi kwa ut'u wa mahendoge madzo ngere ana kit'u cha kudzionyera ela si mbere za Mulungu
Thats why the Scriptures say Abraham believed God and because of this he was accepted as one who is right with God,Kwani Maoro ganaamba kukala Burahemu wamukuluhira Mulungu na kwa ut'u uwo Mulungu akimuhendya muhachi
When people work their pay is not given to them as a gift They earn the pay they get,Mut'u akihenda kazi ya kurifwa mariho ga kwakwe si zawadi bule ni mushahara
But people cannot do any work that will make them right with God So they must trust in him Then he accepts their faith and that makes them right with him He is the one who makes even evil people right,Ela mut'u amukuluhiraye ye Mulungu aahendyaye at'u ai makakala ahachi Mulungu nikumuhendya muhachi kwa ut'u wa ro kuluhiro ra kwakwe si kwa ut'u wa mahendoge
David said the same thing when he was talking about the blessing people have when God accepts them as good without looking at what they have done,Na hatha haryahu muthawali Daudi arihonena kukala baha mut'u ariye Mulungu andamuhendya muhachi bila kulola mahendo ga kwakwe were anaamba vizho
It is a great blessing,Kwani iye wanena akiamba
It is a great blessing when the Lord accepts people,Baha iye mut'u ariyesamehewa ni Mulungu
Is this blessing only for those who are circumcised Or is it also for those who are not circumcised We have already said that it was because of Abrahams faith that he was accepted as one who is right with God,Vidze kuno kuhaswa arikokunena Daudi were ni kwa at'u mariongizwa lwembeni h'akiyao hedu ni kwa hatha at'u mario k'amangizirwe lwembeni Here fudzizhonena kare Burahemu wahendywa muhachi kwa kumukuluhira Mulungu
So how did this happen Did God accept Abraham before or after he was circumcised God accepted him before his circumcision,Kuhendywa muhachi kuku be iye Burahemu k'akupatire bada ya kwangizwa lwembeni ela wakupata wakathi arihokala k'adzangizwa lwembeni
Abraham was circumcised later to show that God accepted him His circumcision was proof that he was right with God through faith before he was circumcised So Abraham is the father of all those who believe but are not circumcised They believe and are accepted as people who are right with God,Burahemu wahendywa muhachi kwandza ndo badaye akingizwa lwembeni Kwangizwa lwembeni kuku were ni muvano na muhuri wa uhachi ariwoupata kwa kukuluhira kabila ya kwangizwa lwembeni Lengo ra Mulungu kumuhendya Burahemu muhachi kabila ya kwangizwa lwembeni were ni kumuhendya akale baba wa osi mahendywao ahachi kwa kukuluhira bila kwangizwa lwembeni
And Abraham is also the father of those who have been circumcised But it is not their circumcision that makes him their father He is their father only if they live following the faith that our father Abraham had before he was circumcised,Kidza Burahemu ni baba wa aryahu mariongizwa lwembeni si kwa ut'u wa ko kwangizwa lwembeni kwao h'akeye ela ni kwa ut'u wa zho maishizho kahi za kukuluhira dza zho babiyehu Burahemu arizhohenda kabila k'adzangizwa lwembeni
Abraham and his descendants received the promise that they would get the whole world But Abraham did not receive that promise because he followed the law He received that promise because he was right with God through his faith,Mulungu waika kilagane na Burahemu hamwenga na lukololwe kukala andaap'a urumwengu ukale wao Kilagane kiki Mulungu k'achikire kwa kukala Burahemu were anathuwa Sheria ela kwa kukala Burahemu wakuluhira na Mulungu akimuhendya muhachi
If people could get Gods promise by following the law then faith is worthless And Gods promise to Abraham is worthless,Na kala cho kilagane cha Mulungu kindahokerwa ni o mathuwao Sheria kare be ko kukuluhira kwa mudamu ni kwa bule na kidza hatha cho kilagane cha Mulungu nacho k'akina mana yoyosi
because the law can only bring Gods anger on those who disobey it But if there is no law then there is nothing to disobey,Sheria inareha k'oro za Mulungu Ela hariho k'ahana Sheria at'u k'amadima kubanda Sheria bule
So people get what God promised by having faith This happens so that the promise can be a free gift And if the promise is a free gift then all of Abrahams people will get that promise The promise is not just for those who live under the Law of Moses It is for all who live with faith as Abraham did He is the father of us all,Kwa vizho bai kilagane cha Mulungu ni kilagane cha kuluhiro Nazho zhakala vizho ili cho kilagane kikale zawadi na kihakikishirwe at'u osi a lukolo lwa Burahemu Na k'akindakala kwa ao mathuwao Sheria h'akeye ela kindakala hatha kwa ao makuluhirao dza zho arizhokuluhira Burahemu Kwani Burahemu nde babiyehu hosi
As the Scriptures say I have made you a father of many nationsThis is true before God the one Abraham believedthe God who gives life to the dead and speaks of things that dont yet exist as if they are real,here Maoro gaambazho Nidzakuhendya ukale baba wa mataifa manji Bai mbere za iye Mulungu ariyemukuluhira afufulaye vit'u virizhofwa na kuiha vit'u virizho k'aviko dza here kwamba vi kuko kare Burahemu ni babiyehu
There was no hope that Abraham would have children but Abraham believed God and continued to hope And that is why he became the father of many nations As God told him You will have many descendants,Hat'u haho were k'ahana th'amaa kamare ela Burahemu ye akikuluhira na akihenda th'amaa na kwa ut'u uwo akikala baba wa mataifa manji here Mulungu arizhomwamba kukala At'u a lukolo lwa kwako mandakala anji
Abraham was almost a hundred years old so he was past the age for having children Also Sarah could not have children Abraham was well aware of this but his faith in God never became weak,Wakathi uwo Burahemu were a hehi na kufisha miaka gana mwenga kwa vizho were anamanya kukala k'adima kit'u kaheri na hatha muchewe Sera naye were ni t'asa Ela vivi zhosi k'avimwalagire moyo Burahemu iye waenderera kukuluhira thu
He never doubted that God would do what he promised He never stopped believing In fact he grew stronger in his faith and just praised God,Naye kwa kukala were anaona kilagane cha Mulungu k'akuna ut'u wowosi uriwodima kumuhendya asikuluhire ela kuluhiro ra kwakwe ramungiza nguvu na akimup'a nguma Mulungu
Abraham felt sure that God was able to do what he promised,Iye were ana uhakika kamare kukala Mulungu ana wadimi wa kuthimiza kilaganeche
So thats why he was accepted as one who is right with God,Ndosa kukirira na ro kuluhiro ra kwakwe Burahemu akihendywa muhachi ni Mulungu
These words he was accepted were written not only for Abraham,Maneno gago ga wahendywa muhachi be k'agandhikirirwe iye h'akeye bule
They were also written for us God will also accept us because we believe We believe in the one who raised Jesus our Lord from death,Maoro gago gandhikirwa hatha siswi furio funahendywa ahachi kwa kumukuluhira iye ariyemufufula Bwana wehu Jesu
Jesus was handed over to die for our sins and he was raised from death to make us right with God,Na iye Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi ndiye ariyelazhwa kwa ut'u wa dambi zehu na akifufulwa ili kwamba Mulungu afuhokere here at'u ahachi
We have been made right with God because of our faith So we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,Bai Mulungu wafuhendya ahachi kwa ut'u wa kuko kukuluhira kwehu Kwa vizho fudzauya funa dheri na Mulungukukirira na Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi
Through our faith Christ has brought us into that blessing of Gods grace that we now enjoy And we are very happy because of the hope we have of sharing Gods glory,Kukirira na Jesu Masihi siswi fwapata ngira ya kuhokerera nema ya Mulungu kwa kukuluhira na vivi funaishi kahi za nema iyo Funasikira kufwahirwa zhomu kwa kukala funa th'amaa ya kupata muthalo kahi za nguma ya Mulungu
And we are also happy with the troubles we have Why are we happy with troubles Because we know that these troubles make us more patient,Na hatha fupataho mateso kidza funafwahirwa vizho Funahenda vivi kwa kukala funamanya mateso ganafuhendya fudime kuvumirira
And this patience is proof that we are strong And this proof gives us hope,Kuvumirira kuku kundahukumaza na kukumala kuku kundafuhendya fukale na th'amaa na gago fugatharizago
And this hope will never disappoint us We know this because God has poured out his love to fill our hearts through the Holy Spirit he gave us,Na th'amaa iyo k'aindafuaibisha bule kwa kukala Mulungu wafwangiza mahendzoge manji kahi za mioyo yehu kukirira na ye Roho Mweri ariyefup'a
Christ died for us when we were unable to help ourselves We were living against God but at just the right time Christ died for us,Mana Masihi wahufwerera siswi enye dambi kahi za wakathi mudzo Mana wakathi furihokala fuchere anyonge ndo Masihi arihofufwerera
Very few people will die to save the life of someone else even if it is for a good person Someone might be willing to die for an especially good person,Ni vikomu zhomu mut'u kumufwerera mut'u mungine hatha akakala ni muhachi Ela hangine mut'u anadima kujeza kumufwerera mut'u mudzo
But Christ died for us while we were still sinners and by this God showed how much he loves us,Ela Mulungu wanyesa mahendzoge iye mwenye kwehu siswi kwani wamureha Masihi akifufwerera wakathi furihokala fuchere enye dambi
We have been made right with God by the blood sacrifice of Christ So through Christ we will surely be saved from Gods anger,Kwa kukala kukirira na yo milatso ya kifwache siswi fwahendywa ahachi ni lwazu kukala iye andafwakola na k'oro za Mulungu
I mean that while we were Gods enemies he made friends with us through his Sons death And the fact that we are now Gods friends makes it even more certain that he will save us through his Sons life,Kwani furihokala fu mahadhui a Mulungu Mulungu wafuhendya fupatane naye kukirira na kifwa cha Mwanawe Vidze vino furizho fudzauya funapatana na Mulungu si zaidhi kukala uzima wa Masihi undakaza kufuokola
And not only will we be saved but we also rejoice right now in what God has done for us through our Lord Jesus Christ It is because of Jesus that we are now Gods friends,Na si vizho thu funa raha kahi za Mulungu kukirira na Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi ariyefupatanisha naye
Sin came into the world because of what one man did And with sin came death So this is why all people must diebecause all people have sinned,Dambi yaandza kuhendwa ni mut'u mumwenga haha dhuniani na ikireha kifwa Ndo at'u osi manafwa kwa kukala osi mahenda dambi
Sin was in the world before the Law of Moses But God does not consider people guilty of sin if there is no law,Kwa vizho kabila ya Sheria kudza dambi yo were i haha urumwenguni kare Ela hat'u hariho k'ahana Sheria k'ahathalwa dambi
But from the time of Adam to the time of Moses everyone had to die Adam died because he sinned by not obeying Gods command But even those who did not sin that same way had to die,Hatha hamwenga na vizho kifwa chathawala anadamu kulaiza wakathi wa Adamu hatha wakathi wa Musa Nacho chathawala hatha aryahu mario k'amabandire Sheria dza zho zha Adamu
But Gods free gift is not like Adams sin Many people died because of the sin of that one man But the grace that people received from God was much greater Many received Gods gift of life by the grace of this other man Jesus Christ,Ela yo zawadi ya bule ariyoyamboza Mulungu k'aikarakara na yo dambi ariyoihenda Adamu Vikikala mut'u mumwenga Adamu thu wahenda dambi na akiahendya at'u anji mafwe h'e seze yo nema ya Mulungu na yo zawadiye ya bule iriyolazhwa kahi za mut'u mumwenga Jesu Masihi vidze yo k'aindakala nyinji zaidhi dzulu za at'u anji
After Adam sinned once he was judged guilty But the gift of God is different His free gift came after many sins and it makes people right with him,Kidza zho nema ya Mulungu irizhohenda k'avikarakara na zho dambi ya mut'u mumwenga irizhohenda Dambi ya Adamu yafurehera hukumu ya kifwa ela nema ya Mulungu yo ikifuhendya ahachi ingahokala were funa dambi nyinji
One man sinned and so death ruled all people because of that one man But now some people accept Gods full grace and his great gift of being made right Surely they will have true life and rule through the one man Jesus Christ,Bai vikikala dambi ya mut'u mumwenga yahendya kifwa kikithawala at'u osi kukirira na iye mut'u mumwenga h'e seze ao mandiohokera nema isiyo kipimo kula kwa Mulungu hamwenga na cho kigerwa cha bule cha uhachi Vidze o k'amandathawala zaidhi kahi za uzima kukirira na ye mut'u mumwenga Jesu Masihi
So that one sin of Adam brought the punishment of death to all people But in the same way Christ did something so good that it makes all people right with God And that brings them true life,Kwa vizho bai dza zho dambi ya mut'u mumwenga irizhoreha hukumu dzulu za at'u osi ndo kihendo kimwenga cha hachi kirichohendwa ni Masihi kiahendyazho at'u osi makale ahachi na kiap'e uzima
One man disobeyed God and many became sinners But in the same way one man obeyed God and many will be made right,Haho chaho at'u anji mahendywa enye dambi kukirira kwa mut'u mumwenga ariye k'amusikirire Mulungu Na vivi nazho at'u anji mandahendywa ahachi kukirira kwa mut'u mumwenga ariyemusikira Mulungu
The law was brought in so that more people would sin the way Adam did But where sin increased there was even more of Gods grace,Sheria yarefwa ili at'u makadime kubanda malagizo ga Mulungu zaidhi Ela here dambi zirizhokaza kungezeka nema ya Mulungu isiyo kipimo nayo ikingezeka zaidhi na zaidhi
Sin once used death to rule us But God gave us more of his grace so that grace could rule by making us right with him And this brings us eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord,Kwa vizho bai dambi yathawala at'u na ikiarehera kifwa Na vivi nazho nema ya Mulungu inathawala na inahendya at'u makale ahachi kidza inaangiza kahi za uzima wa kare na kare kukirira kwa Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi
So do you think we should continue sinning so that God will give us more and more grace,Ndo fuambedze vikara Vino be ndizho fuenderere kuhenda dambi ili nema ya Mulungu ikaze kwangezeka
Of course not Our old sinful life ended Its dead So how can we continue living in sin,Hatha bule Sino hurioifwerera dambi funadimadze kuenderera kuishi kahi za dambi kaheri
Did you forget that all of us became part of Christ Jesus when we were baptized In our baptism we shared in his death,Vidze k'amumanya kukala sino huriobat'izwa kahi za Masihi Jesu fwabat'izwa kahi za kifwache
So when we were baptized we were buried with Christ and took part in his death And just as Christ was raised from death by the wonderful power of the Father so we can now live a new life,Na kukiririra na uwo ubat'izo fwazikwa hamwenga naye ili here Masihi arizhofufuka kwa ut'u wa nguma na nguvu za Mulungu siswi naswi hugaluke na kuishi maisha masha
Christ died and we have been joined with him by dying too So we will also be joined with him by rising from death as he did,Kwani here hurizhoungana naye kahi za mufano wa kifwache hundaungana naye kahi za mufano wa kufufukakwe
We know that our old life was put to death on the cross with Christ This happened so that our sinful selves would have no power over us Then we would not be slaves to sin,Funamanya kukala hali yehu ya kapindi here anadamu yasulubiwa hamwenga na Jesu ili kwamba wo mwiri wa dambi unongwe-nongwe na husikale atumwa a dambi kaheri
Anyone who has died is made free from sins control,Kwani mut'u akifwa k'athawalwa ni dambi kaheri
If we died with Christ we know that we will also live with him,Bai kwa kukala fwafwa hamwenga na Masihi hunakuluhira kukala hundaishi hamwenga naye pia
Christ was raised from death And we know that he cannot die again Death has no power over him now,Funamanya kukala Masihi wafufuka na k'andafwa kaheri kwani kifwa k'akimwadima kaheri
Yes when Christ died he died to defeat the power of sin one timeenough for all time He now has a new life and his new life is with God,Iye wafwa lumwenga akiifwerera dambi na vivi anamuishira Mulungu
In the same way you should see yourselves as being dead to the power of sin and alive for God through Christ Jesus,Bai hatha ninwi nanwi dzihaleni here at'u murioifwerera dambi na vino munamuishira Mulungu kahi za Masihi Jesu
But dont let sin control your life here on earth You must not be ruled by the things your sinful self makes you want to do,Kwa vizho bai musiriche dambi ikathawala yo miri yenu ifwayo hatha mukathuwiriza zo th'amaaze mbii
Dont offer the parts of your body to serve sin Dont use your bodies to do evil but offer yourselves to God as people who have died and now live Offer the parts of your body to God to be used for doing good,Musihale vilungo zha miri yenu be mukavihumira kwa kuhendera dambi hedu uthiriri wowosi ela dzimbozeni kwa Mulungu muhumire vilungo zhenu kwa kuhendera hachi here at'u mariombozwa kifwani na machangizwa uzimani
Sin will not be your master because you are not under law You now live under Gods grace,Kwa kukala ninwi mu ts'ini za nema k'amu ts'ini za Sheria dambi k'aindamuthawala bule
So what should we do Should we sin because we are under grace and not under law Certainly not,Ndo fuambedze vikara Vino zha kukala fudzauya fu ts'ini za nema ya Mulungu k'afu ts'ini za Sheria kaheri be ndizho futhuwe kuhenda dambi Hatha bule Fusihende vizho
Surely you know that you become the slaves of whatever you give yourselves to Anything or anyone you follow will be your master You can follow sin or you can obey God Following sin brings spiritual death but obeying God makes you right with him,Hedu k'amumanya kukala mukidzimbozeza kukala atumwa asikizi kwa mut'u mut'u iye mumusikizaye nde bwana wenu Bai nimutsagule vimwenga Mukale atumwa a dambi iriyo mwishowe ni kifwa hedu mukale atumwa a kuhenda ahendzazho Mulungu uriwo mwishowe ni uhachi
In the past you were slaves to sinsin controlled you But thank God you fully obeyed what you were taught,Ela ninamulazhira muvera Mulungu kwani hatha ingahokala haho kapindi mwakala atumwa a dambi vivi go maut'u murigofundishwa munagathuwa kamare kwa moyo mumwenga
You were made free from sin and now you are slaves to what is right,Ninwi mwaikwa huru kula kwa utumwa wa dambi mudzauya mu atumwa a uhachi
I use this example from everyday life because you need help in understanding spiritual truths In the past you offered the parts of your body to be slaves to your immoral and sinful thoughts The result was that you lived only for sin In the same way you must now offer yourselves to be slaves to what is right Then you will live only for God,Ninahumira maneno na mifano muimanyayo kwa kukala nisihohenda vizho k'amundang'alirwa bule Here dza viryahu murizhomboza vilungo zhenu vihumirwe kahi za uthiriri na ukolo vivi mbozani vilungo zhenu vihumike kahi za uhachi mukale aeri
In the past you were slaves to sin and you did not even think about doing right,Murihokala atumwa a dambi were k'amuthawalwa ni uhachi bule
You did evil things and now you are ashamed of what you did Did those things help you No they only brought death,Ela mwapata faidha yani kala go murigohenda wakathi uwo vivi muna haya nago Maut'u gago mwishowe ni kifwa
But now you are free from sin You have become slaves of God and the result is that you live only for God This will bring you eternal life,Ela vivi mwaikwa huru kula kwa dambi na mudzauya mu atumwa a Mulungu Faidha ya kwakwe ni kutsuswa na mwishowe ni uzima wa kare na kare
When people sin they earn what sin paysdeath But God gives his people a free gifteternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord,Kwani mushahara wa dambi ni kifwa ela zawadi ya Mulungu ni uzima wa kare na kare kukirira kwa Masihi Jesu Bwana wehu
Brothers and sisters you all understand the Law of Moses So surely you know that the law rules over people only while they are alive,Ndugu zangu ninanena na ninwi mumanyao Sheria Here mumanyazho kare Sheria ithawala mut'u wakathi achere moyo
Its like what the law says about marriage A woman must stay married to her husband as long as he is alive But if her husband dies she is made free from the law of marriage,Mukaza mut'u naye athawalwa ni Sheria ya akaza at'u wakathi ye mulumewe achere moyo Ela siku ye mulumewe akifwa Sheriaiyo k'aimuthawala kaheri
But if she marries another man while her husband is still alive the law says she is guilty of adultery But if her husband dies she is made free from the law of marriage So if she marries another man after her husband dies she is not guilty of adultery,Akihalwa ni mulume mungine kuno mulumewe achere moyo mwanamuche iye nikukala ni muzindzi Ela mulumewe akifwa nikukala a huru kula kwa yo Sheria iyo na hatha akahalwa ni mulume mungine kidza k'adima kuthalwa na kosa ra uzindzi
In the same way my brothers and sisters your old selves died and you became free from the law through the body of Christ Now you belong to someone else You belong to the one who was raised from death We belong to Christ so that we can be used in service to God,Na vizho ndo virizhokala kwenu ninwi ndugu zangu Ninwi mwaifwerera yo Sheria kukirira na mwiri wa Masihi ili mukadime kuhalwa ni mulume mungine Mulume iye ni yuyahu ariyefufulwa naye wamuhala ili mukamuzhalire matunda Mulungu
In the past we were ruled by our sinful selves The law made us want to do sinful things And those sinful desires controlled our bodies so that what we did only brought us spiritual death,Kwani furihokala k'ahudzamuhokera Jesu Sheria yaigwiza miri yehu th'amaa za kuhenda dambi Na mahendo gehu were mwishowe gandafurehera kifwa
In the past the law held us as prisoners but our old selves died and we were made free from the law So now we serve God in a new way not in the old way with the written rules Now we serve God in the new way with the Spirit,Ela vino fu huru mana yo Sheria iriyokala idzafuhendya atumwa fwaifwerera Bai zhakala vivi ili fusihumike ts'ini za yo Sheria ya kapindi iriyohenda kwandhikwa ela fuhumike kahi za maisha masha ga kulongozwa ni Roho
You might think I am saying that sin and the law are the same That is not true But the law was the only way I could learn what sin means I would never have known it is wrong to want something that is not mine But the law said You must not want what belongs to someone else,Vikara ndo fuambedze be zho Fuambe Sheria ni dambi Hatha bule Sheria yanimanyisa dambi ni noni thu basi Kwani kala si Sheria kuamba Usithamani kit'u cha mwandziyo singamanyire kukala kuthamani ni dambi
And sin found a way to use that command and make me want all kinds of things that werent mine So sin came to me because of the command But without the law sin has no power,Ela dambi yapata mwanya kahi za lagizo riri Bai dambi ikihumira mwanya uryahu kunitsotsera be nikikala na dzitso na vit'u zha at'u zhomu hatha Mana dambi k'aihenda kazi chamba k'akuna Sheria
Before I knew the law I was alive But when I heard the laws command sin began to live,Kapindi nakala nikiishi bila Sheria na were naishit'o ela amuri irihokudza dambi nayo ikivumbuluka nami nikifwa
and I died spiritually The command was meant to bring life but for me it brought death,Ndo nikimanya kukala iyo amuri iriyokala niinirehere uzima yanirehera kifwa
Sin found a way to fool me by using the command to make me die,Kwani dambi irihopata mwanya kahi za yo Sheria yahumira mwanya uwo ikinikenga gonya ikinalaga
Now the law is holy and the command is holy and right and good,Bai yo Sheria yenye ni eri na amurize nazo ni eri na za hachi na mbidzo
Does this mean that something that is good brought death to me No it was sin that used the good command to bring me death This shows how terrible sin really is It can use a good command to produce a result that shows sin at its very worst,Vino be vikale Sheria mbidzo ndo iriyonirehera kifwa Hatha bule Dambi yanirehera kifwa kukirira kwa wo ut'u udzo ili imanyikane kukala iyo ni dambi na kukirira kwa iyo amuri ikaze kukala mbii-mbii zaidhi
We know that the law is spiritual but I am not I am so human Sin rules me as if I were its slave,Kwa vizho hunamanya kukala Sheria i kiroho ela mimi mwenye ni kimwiri naguzwa nikale mutumwa wa dambi
I dont understand why I act the way I do I dont do the good I want to do and I do the evil I hate,Mut'u mimi be simanya nihendaro bule Zho nihendzazho sivihenda bule ninahenda zho nirizho sizhendzi
And if I dont want to do what I do that means I agree that the law is good,Na nikihenda gago nirigo sigaendzi ninakubali kukala yo Sheria ni mbidzo
But I am not really the one doing the evil It is sin living in me that does it,Na gago sigahenda mimi mwenye kuhendza ela ni yo dambi iriyo ndani mwangu ndo inihendyayo nihende gago
Yes I know that nothing good lives in meI mean nothing good lives in the part of me that is not spiritual I want to do what is good but I dont do it,Kwani ninamanya kukala kahi za mwiri wa kwangu wa dambi sina ridzo nidimaro kurihenda hatha mwenga Na si ati ts'endzi kuhenda madzo ninahendza ela ninashindwa
I dont do the good that I want to do I do the evil that I dont want to do,Go madzo nihendzago kugahenda sigahenda bule ninahenda go mai nirigo ts'endzi kugahenda
So if I do what I dont want to do then I am not really the one doing it It is the sin living in me that does it,Bai nikikala zho nirizho sizhendzi ndo nihendazho ye agahendaye si mimi kaheri ela ni yo dambi iishiyo mo ndani mwangu
So I have learned this rule When I want to do good evil is there with me,Na ii kwangu ni here sheria kukala kila nimalaho kuhenda madzo ninahenda kuona nidzatengeza go mai kare
In my mind I am happy with Gods law,Mo ndani mwangu ninafwahirwa ni yo Sheria ya Mulungu
But I see another law working in my body That law makes war against the law that my mind accepts That other law working in my body is the law of sin and that law makes me its prisoner,Ela ninaona sheria nyingine ihendayo kazi kahi za vilungo zhangu Sheria iyo inapingana na yo Sheria niihendzayo moyoni mwangu Kidza sheria iyo inanihendya nikale mufungwa wa yo sheria ya dambi iishiyo mwirini mwangu
What a miserable person I am Who will save me from this body that brings me death,Aa Masikini mino Ni h'ani andiyeniokola na uno mwiri wa kifwa
I thank God for his salvation through Jesus Christ our Lord,Ela ninamulazhira muvera Mulungu kwa kunakola kukirira na Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi
So now anyone who is in Christ Jesus is not judged guilty,Kwa vizho vivi k'akuna hukumu yoyosi dzulu za at'u a Masihi Jesu
That is because in Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit that brings life made youfree It made you free from the law that brings sin and death,Kwani sheria ya Roho afureheraye uzima kukirira na kumukuluhira Masihi Jesu be yafwika huru kula kwa yo sheria ya dambi na kifwa
The law was without power because it was made weak by our sinful selves But God did what the law could not do He sent his own Son to earth with the same human life that everyone else uses for sin God sent him to be an offering to pay for sin So God used a human life to destroy sin,Kwani Mulungu wathimiza zho Sheria irizhokala idzagonya kushindwa Mana kwa kukala mwiri wa mudamu una unyonge wa kuhendza kuhenda dambi Sheria yashindwa ni kuusa dambi Ela Mulungu akimuhuma mwanawe kwa ut'u wa yo dambi Bai Jesu Masihi wazhalwa na mwiri here dza uu mwiri wehu wa dambi na kwa mwiri uwo yo dambi akiihukumu
He did this so that we could be right just as the law said we must be Now we dont live following our sinful selves We live following the Spirit,Mulungu wahenda vizho ili yo hachi ya Sheria ithimizwe ndani yehu siswi fuishio kahi za Roho mana k'afuishi kuthuwirizana na mwiri
People who live following their sinful selves think only about what they want But those who live following the Spirit are thinking about what the Spirit wants them to do,Kwani aryahu maishio kuthuwirizana na wo mwiri maazo gao ga kahi za maut'u ga wo mwiri Ela aryahu maishio kahi za Roho maazo gao ga kahi za maut'u ga ye Roho
If your thinking is controlled by your sinful self there is spiritual death But if your thinking is controlled by the Spirit there is life and peace,Mut'u akiika maazoge kahi za mwiri gandamurehera kifwa Ela akiika maazoge kahi za Roho gandamurehera uzima na dheri
Why is this true Because anyone whose thinking is controlled by their sinful self is against God They refuse to obey Gods law And really they are not able to obey it,Kwani mut'u ariye maazoge ganathawalwa ni mwiri ni hadhui wa Mulungu mana k'adima kuthuwa Sheria ya Mulungu hatha vichache
Those who are ruled by their sinful selves cannot please God,Kidza at'u mathawalwao ni mwiri k'amadima kumufwahiza Mulungu bule
But you are not ruled by your sinful selves You are ruled by the Spirit if that Spirit of God really lives in you But whoever does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to Christ,Ela ninwi bai kala Roho wa Mulungu anaishi ndani yenu k'amuthawalwa ni mwiri bule munathawalwa ni Roho Na mut'u yoyosi ariye k'ana ye Roho wa Masihi si wa Masihi bule
Your body will always be dead because of sin But if Christ is in you then the Spirit gives you life because Christ made you right with God,Ela Masihi akikala ndani yenu ingahokala miri yenu indafwa kwa ut'u wa dambi ela roho zenu zindakala moyo mana mwahendywa ahachi
God raised Jesus from death And if Gods Spirit lives in you he will also give life to your bodies that die Yes God is the one who raised Christ from death and he will raise you to life through his Spirit living in you,Kala ye Roho wa Mulungu ariyemufufula Jesu anaishi ndani yenu ye Mulungu ariyemufufula Masihi Jesu andaip'a uzima ii miri yenu ifwayo Uzima uu andamup'a kukirira na iye Roho wa kwakwe aishiye ndani yenu
So my brothers and sisters we must not be ruled by our sinful selves We must not live the way our sinful selves want,Kwa vizho ndugu zangu siswi funa dheni ela dheni riri si kuishi kuthuwirizana na miri yehu
If you use your lives to do what your sinful selves want you will die spiritually But if you use the Spirits help to stop doing the wrong things you do with your body you will have true life,Kwani mukiishi kuthuwirizana na mwiri mundafwa Ela mukigalaga mahendo gosi ga mwiri kukirira na iye Roho mundaishi
The true children of God are those who let Gods Spirit lead them,Mana osi malongozwao ni Roho wa Mulungu ni ana a Mulungu
The Spirit that we received is not a spirit that makes us slaves again and causes us to fear The Spirit that we have makes us Gods chosen children And with that Spirit we cry out,Kwani Mulungu k'amup'ere roho wa kumuhendya atumwa hedu aoga kaheri ela wamup'a Roho amuhendyaye ninwi mukale ana a Mulungu Na Roho iye anafup'a wadimi wa kumuririra Mulungu na kumwiha Baba
And the Spirit himself speaks to our spirits and makes us sure that we are Gods children,Na hatha ye Roho wa Mulungu anamboza ushahidhi hamwenga na zo roho zehu kukala siswi fu ana a Mulungu
If we are Gods children we will get the blessings God has for his people He will give us all that he has given Christ But we must suffer like Christ suffered Then we will be able to share his glory,Na kwa kukala fu ana a Mulungu fundahokera baraka arizo Mulungu waaikira anae Baraka zizo fundazihokera hamwenga na Masihi bora thu hukubali kuteseka dza zho Masihi arizhoteseka ili kwamba Mulungu ahup'e nguma hamwenga na iye Masihi
We have sufferings now but these are nothing compared to the great glory that will be given to us,Gaga mateso fugapatago wakathi uu sigaona ni kit'u nikilinganisha na yo nguma andiyofwanyesa Mulungu wakathi uwo
Everything that God made is waiting with excitement for the time when he will show the world who his children are The whole world wants very much for that to happen,Na zho vit'u zhosi virizhoumbwa ni Mulungu vinaithariza kwa hamu yo siku Mulungu andihoang'aza anae
Everything God made was allowed to become like something that cannot fulfill its purpose That was not its choice but God made it happen with this hope in view,Kwani Mulungu wahukumu zhumbe zhosi na akivihendya vikale k'avina mana yoyosi Naye wahenda vivi si kwa zho vit'u kuhendza ela kwa kuhendza kwa kwakwe mwenye Ela hamwenga na vizho Mulungu were achere na th'amaa ya kuviokola
That the creation would be made free from ruinthat everything God made would have the same freedom and glory that belong to Gods children,Na ndosa siku mwenga zhumbe zhosi vindarichirwa kula kahi za utumwa wa kunongeka na zhangire kahi za uhuru wa nguma wa o ana a Mulungu
We know that everything God made has been waiting until now in pain like a woman ready to give birth to a child,Kwani funamanya kukala kufikira vivi vit'u zhosi arizhoviumba Mulungu vinagula hamwenga kwa utsungu dza here mut'u amalaye kudzivugula
Not only the world but we also have been waiting with pain inside us We have the Spirit as the first part of Gods promise So we are waiting for God to finish making us his own children I mean we are waiting for our bodies to be made free,Na si vizho zhumbe h'akeye vigulazho kwa utsungu here wa kuzhala ela hatha siswi furiomuhokera Roho Mweri here malumbuko naswi funagula fukimuthariza Mulungu afuhendye anae yani aikombole miri yehu
We were saved to have this hope If we can see what we are waiting for that is not really hope People dont hope for something they already have,Kwani hatha siswi naswi furihookolwa tumaini rehu rere ni riro Na tumaini ni kuryahu kukala na th'amaa na vit'u virizho k'afudzazhona bule mana k'akuna mut'u adimaye kukala na tumaini na vit'u azhonazho kare
But we are hoping for something we dont have yet and we are waiting for it patiently,Ela fukikala na tumaini na vit'u furizho k'afudzazhona be ni kukala funavithariza kwa kuvumirira zaidhi
Also the Spirit helps us We are very weak but the Spirit helps us with our weakness We dont know how to pray as we should but the Spirit himself speaks to God for us He begs God for us speaking to him with feelings too deep for words,Iye Roho mwenye naye pia nikukala anafwaviza kahi za unyonge wehu Kwani siswi be k'afumanya kuvoya here vimalikanazho ela iye Roho nikufuvoyera mbere za Mulungu kwa kugula kuriko k'akuelezeka kwa maneno
God already knows our deepest thoughts And he understands what the Spirit is saying because the Spirit speaks for his people in the way that agrees with what God wants,Na ye Mulungu amanyaye maazo ga anadamu anamanya hatha zho ye Roho aazazho Mana ye Roho nikukala anaavoyera at'u a Mulungu kulengana na zho Mulungu ahendzazho
We know that in everything God works for the good of those who love him These are the people God chose because that was his plan,Funamanya kukala kahi za kila kit'u Mulungu anahenda kazi kwa faidha ya ao mamuhendzao na mario waaiha kulengana na lengo ra kwakwe
God knew them before he made the world And he decided that they would be like his Son Then Jesus would be the firstborn of many brothers and sisters,Kwani aryahu at'u mario Mulungu waatsagula pia wapanga mahalane na Mwanawe Bai wahenda vivi ili ye Mwanawe akale musundula tsandzu kidza akale na nduguze anji enye
God planned for them to be like his Son He chose them and made them right with him And after he made them right he gave them his glory,Aryahu at'u mario Mulungu waapangira hangu ho chaho pia waaiha na aryahu arioaiha akiahendya ahachi na aryahu arioahendya ahachi akiap'a nguma
So what should we say about this If God is for us no one can stand against us And God is with us,Huambedze vikara Kala Mulungu a upande wehu ni h'ani adimaye kufupinga Jibu ni k'akuna
He even let his own Son suffer for us God gave his Son for all of us So now with Jesus God will surely give us all things,Iye ariye k'amuonerere mbazi hatha Mwanawe mwenye ela akimulazha kwa ut'u wehu siswi hosi k'andashindwa ni kuhup'a vit'u zhosi hamwenga na ye Mwanawe
Who can accuse the people God has chosen No one God is the one who makes them right,Vidze ni h'ani adimaye kuashithaki atsagulwa a Mulungu na Mulungu mwenye nde ariyeahendya ahachi Jibu ni k'akuna
Who can say that Gods people are guilty No one Christ Jesus died for us but that is not all He was also raised from death And now he is at Gods right side speaking to him for us,H'aya ni h'ani adimaye kufuhukumu K'akuna Mana Masihi Jesu nde ariyehufwerera na akifufuka Na vivi a mukono wa kurya wa Mulungu anafuvoyera kuko
Can anything separate us from Christs love Can trouble or problems or persecution separate us from his love If we have no food or clothes or face danger or even death will that separate us from his love,Kidza k'ahana mut'u adimaye kufuthenga na mahendzo ga Masihi Kakala thabu hedu mashaka hedu mateso hedu ndzala hedu ukiya hedu hathari hedu kifwa
As the Scriptures say,Kwani here Maoro gaambazho
But in all these troubles we have complete victory through God who has shown his love for us,Ela kahi za maut'u gaga gosi funapata ushindi mubomu kukirira na iye ariyefuhendza
I am in Christ and I am telling you the truth I am not lying And my conscience ruled by the Holy Spirit agrees that what I say now is true,Mimi ni kahi za Masihi kwa vizho gaga niganenago haha be si ga ulongo bule ni ga ujeri Moyo wangu mino unathawalwa ni Roho Mweri nawo una ushahidhi kamare kukala gaga niganenago ni ga ujeri
I have great sorrow and always feel much sadness,Ninashononeka zhomu kidza nina utsungu usiwogoma kahi za moyo wangu
for my own people They are my brothers and sisters my earthly family I wish I could help them I would even have a curse on me and cut myself off from Christ if that would help them,nikiaza ndugu zangu Aiziraeli at'u a lukolo lwangu lwenye Kwani sikahere nikalaniwa ni Mulungu na kutoswa na Masihi kwa ut'u wao ao
They are the people of Israel Gods chosen children They have the glory of God and the agreements he made between himself and his people God gave them the Law of Moses the Temple worship and his promises,Aiziraeli ni at'u mario Mulungu waatsagula akiahendya anae Iye waanyesa ngumaye na akiika vilagane hamwenga nao Kidza waap'a Sheria na ahadi kidza akiafundisha kumuvoya
They are the descendants of our great fathers and they are the earthly family of the Messiah who is God over all things Praise him foreverAmen,At'u a Mulungu here ano Burahemu Isaka na Jakobu ni at'u a kwao Hatha Masihi naye kahi za udamu wa kwakwe wambola kahi za lukolo lulo Iye ndiye athawalaye vit'u zhosi Ni Mulungu na naalikwe hatha kare na kare H'aami
I dont mean that God failed to keep his promise to the Jewish people But only some of the people of Israel are really Gods people,Nikinena vivi siamba kukala Mulungu k'athimiza vilaganezhe hatha bule Kwani si Aiziraeli osi mario ni atsagulwa a Mulungu
And only some of Abrahams descendants are true children of Abraham This is what God said to Abraham Your true descendants will be those who come through Isaac,Kidza si at'u osi mariombola kwa Burahemu maifwao ana a Burahemu Mana Mulungu wamwamba Burahemu Lukolo lwa kwako lundathalwa kula kwa Isaka
This means that not all of Abrahams descendants are Gods true children Abrahams true children are those who become Gods children because of the promise he made to Abraham,Vivi vinamanisha kukala ana mariozhalwa kawaida k'amathalwa kukala ni ana a Mulungu ela ana a ahadi ndo mathalwao kukala ni lukolo lwa Burahemu
Here is what God said in that promise About this time next year I will come back and Sarah will have a son,Kwani Mulungu wamulaga Burahemu akimwamba Nindauya wakathi dza uu na Sera andakala ana mwana
And that is not all Rebecca also had sons and they had the same father He is our father Isaac,H'aya Rabeka naye wafunga mimba na mulume mumwenga naye ni iye mukare wehu Isaka
So what does this mean That God is not fair We cannot say that,Vino vikara funadima kuamba kukala Mulungu k'ahenda hachi Hatha bule
God said to Moses I will show mercy to anyone I want to show mercy to I will show pity to anyone I choose,Mana iye wanena na Musa akimwamba
So God will choose anyone he decides to show mercy to and his choice does not depend on what people want or try to do,Kwa vizho kutsagulwa kunategemea mbazi za Mulungu k'akutegemea kuhendza kwa mut'u mwenye hedu chadiche
In the Scriptures God says to Pharaoh I made you king so that you could do this for me I wanted to show my power through you I wanted my name to be announced throughout the world,Kwani kahi za Maoro Mulungu wamwamba Farao kukala Nakuhendya muthawali ili nikuhumire kunyesa nguvu zangu na kumanyisa dzina rangu kahi za urumwengu muzima
So God shows mercy to those he wants to show mercy to and makes stubborn those he wants to make stubborn,Kwa vizho bai Mulungu nikumuonera mbazi kila ahendzaye kumuonera mbazi Kidza anadima kumuhendya mut'u yoyosi akale na singo nyomu here ahendzazho iye
So one of you will ask me If God controls what we do why does he blame us for our sins,Hangine unadima kuuza ukaamba Kala k'akuna mut'u adimaye kupinga mahendzo ga Mulungu kwanoni Mulungu analaumu at'u na iye nde aahendyaye mahende zho ahendzazho
Dont ask that You are only human and have no right to question God A clay jar does not question the one who made it It does not say Why did you make me like this,Ela we mudamu u h'ani hatha upigane k'anani na Mulungu Vidze ino nyungu inadima kumuza ye muumbi wa kwakwe ikaamba Kwanoni waniumba vino we
The one who makes the jar can make anything he wants He uses the same clay to make different things He might make one thing for special purposes and another for daily use,Samba yuno muumbi ana hachi ya kuhenda here ahendzazho Iye anadima kuumba nyungu mbiri kula kwa ulongo umwenga Nyungu mwenga ikakala ya mahumizi maalumu na nyingine ikakala ya mahumizi ga kawaida thu
It is the same way with what God has done He wanted to show his anger and to let people see his power But he patiently endured those he was angry withpeople who were ready to be destroyed,Na vivi be vi karakara na zho arizhohenda Mulungu K'adzatsoka kuavumirira aryahu at'u mariomutsukiza ario iye waathayarishira kwanongwa-nongwa Naye arihohenda vivi were anamala k'oroze na nguvuze zidime kumanyikana
He waited with patience so that he could make known the riches of his glory to the people he has chosen to receive his mercy God has already prepared them to share his glory,Kidza wahendza anyese yo nguma nyinji ariyo nayo na ariyofup'a hatha siswi ariohendza kufuonera mbazi yani siswi ariofuthayarisha kuhokera nguma ya kwakwe
We are those people the ones God chose not only from the Jews but also from those who are not Jews,Kwani siswi ndiswi ariofwiha si kumbola kwa Ayahudi h'akeye ela hatha kumbola kwa at'u mario si Ayahudi
As the Scriptures say in the book of Hosea,Mana Mulungu wanena kukirira na nabii Hosea akiamba
Yes the Lord will quickly finish judging the people on the earth,Kwani Bwana anadza hukumu urumwengu haraka
And the people of Israel who tried to make themselves right with God by following the law did not succeed,Ela Aiziraeli mariokala manamala kukala enye hachi kwa kuthuwa Sheria o k'amayadimire bule iyo Sheria
They failed because they tried to make themselves right by the things they did They did not trust in God to make them right They fell over the stone that makes people fall,Vikara swali ni kwamba kwanoni mashindwa Jibure ni kwamba Aiziraeli k'amapatire uhachi kwa kukala k'amaumalire kwa kukuluhira maumala kwa mahendo gao nawo k'aupatikana kwa mahendo bai Bai kwa kuhenda vizho makirikwala riryahu iwe ra kukwalwa
So I ask Did God force his people to leave him Of course not I myself am an Israelite I am from the family of Abraham from the tribe of Benjamin,H'aya nindauza ut'u Vidze yuno Mulungu waakahala kamare o at'ue Jibu ni hatha k'aakahalire bule Kwani mimi mwenye ninambola kahi za lukolo lwa Burahemu Ni Muiziraeli wa mbari ya Benjamini
God chose the Israelites to be his people before they were born And he did not force them to leave Surely you know what the Scriptures say about Elijah The Scriptures tell about Elijah praying to God against the people of Israel He said,Mulungu k'aakahalire bule o at'ue arioatsagula hangu ho chaho Vidze unakumbukira zho Maoro gaambazho Maoro ganaamba kukala Elija wamulalamikira Mulungu dzulu za Aiziraeli akiamba
Lord they have killed your prophets and destroyed your altars I am the only prophet still living and they are trying to kill me now,Bwana vijaja zha kwako zha kumbozera sadaka magonya kuvibanda-banda Manabii a kwako osi makigonya kualaga Hatha nisere mimi thu kidza nami manamala manalage
But what answer did God give to Elijah God said I have kept for myself seven thousand men who have never given worship to Baal,Arihonena vizho Mulungu wamudzigidzya akimwamba Nina alume alifu fungahe niriodziikira mwenye na ao k'amadzavoya kizuka cha Bali
It is the same now God has chosen a few people by his grace,Kwa vizho hatha vivi nazho kuna at'u achache masereo mario Mulungu waatsagula mwenye kwa mbazize
And if he chose them by grace then it is not what they have done that made them his people If they could be made his people by what they did his gift of grace would not really be a gift,Bai Mulungu anatsagula at'u kwa mbazize mwenye si kwa mahendo gao Na kala anatsagula at'u kwa mahendo gao zo mbazize ngere si mbazi kit'u
So this is what has happened The people of Israel wanted Gods blessing but they did not all get it The people he chose did get his blessing but the others became hard and refused to listen to him,Kwa vizho bai zho marizhokala Aiziraeli manavimala k'amavipatire bule isihokala aryahu achache mariotsagulwa ni Mulungu Angine osi mahendywa makale na singo nyomu hatha k'amamusirikizire Mulungu
As the Scriptures say,Kwani Maoro ganaamba
And David says,Na hatha muthawali Daudi naye waamba kukala
Let their eyes be closed so that they cannot see,Mulungu naaafunge kizuzu hatha makale k'amaona
So I ask When the Jews fell did that fall destroy them No But their mistake brought salvation to those who are not Jews The purpose of this was to make the Jews jealous,Vino be ndizho fuambe kukala Aiziraeli makwala makigwa kamare hedu Hatha bule Aiziraeli makosa na kukirira na kuko kukosa kwao at'u mario si Ayahudi makipata wokolwi Na vivi zhakala ili viangize wivu ao Aiziraeli
Their mistake brought rich blessings to the world And what they lost brought rich blessings to the nonJewish people So surely the world will get much richer blessings when enough Jews become the kind of people God wants,Vikara kala kukosa na kushindwa kwa Aiziraeli thu kisha kwaahendya at'u mario si Ayahudi dhuniani mahaswe zhomu zhenye h'e seze ko kuokolwa kwao o Aiziraeli
Now I am speaking to you people who are not Jews I am an apostle to the nonJewish people So while I have that work I will do the best I can,Vivi be ninanena na ninwi at'u murio k'amu Ayahudi Ninanena nanwi here muhumwi ariyehumwa kwa at'u mario si Ayahudi Nami kazi ii be ninainyeth'era sana
I hope I can make my own people jealous That way maybe I can help some of them to be saved,Ninanyeth'era kazi ii ili niangize wivu Ayahudi andzangu k'ai nindaaokola angine ao
God turned away from the Jews When that happened he became friends with the other people in the world So when he accepts the Jews it will be like bringing people to life after death,Kala kukahalwa kwao kwahendya urumwengu ukipatanishwa na Mulungu ko kukubaliwa kwao ko samba kundaafufula at'u
If the first piece of bread is offered to God then the whole loaf is made holy If the roots of a tree are holy the trees branches are holy too,Kisiku cha kwandza cha mukahe kikiikwa mbere za Mulungu wo mukahe wosi ni kukala udzakala mueri Na muhi ukikala na miziji mieri hatha vitaizhe nazho ni kukala vieri Na vivi ndo virizho hatha kwa Aiziraeli Kwa kukala Burahemu na akare ao angine were ni aeri hatha o Aiziraeli nao ni aeri
It is as if some of the branches from an olive tree have been broken off and the branch of a wild olive tree has been joined to that first tree If you are not a Jew you are the same as that wild branch and you now share the strength and life of the first tree,Ela vitai vingine zha wo muzeituni wenye yani Aiziraeli zhathemwa Bai virihothemwa ninwi vitai zha muzeituni wa tsakani yani at'u murio k'amu Ayahudi mwabandikwa kahikahi za zho vitai virizhosala Kwa vizho hatha ninwi nanwi mukipata chakurya kidzo kula kwa wo muzeituni wenye
But dont act as if you are better than those branches that were broken off You have no reason to be proud of yourself because you dont give life to the root The root gives life to you,Bai musidzionye bule kwa ati ao mathemwa mukibandikwa ninwi Kwani ninwi mu vitai na mupata nguvu kula kwa yo miziji sinwi muip'ayo nguvu yo miziji bule
You might say Branches were broken off so that I could be joined to their tree,Hangine munadima kunena mukaamba Be samba zho vitai zhathemwa ili nibandikwe mimi
That is true But those branches were broken off because they did not believe And you continue to be part of the tree only because you believe Dont be proud but be afraid,Ee ni vizho zhenye Ela vitai vizho zhathemwa kwa kukala k'avikuluhirire Na ninwi nanwi mu salama haho kwa kukala munakuluhira Kwa vizho musidzionye bule mwagoheni Mulungu
If God did not let the natural branches of that tree stay he will not let you stay if you stop believing,Mana kala zho vitai zhenye thu kidza Mulungu k'avionerere mbazi h'e seze nwi vitai zha kuhenda kubandikwa
So you see that God is kind but he can also be very strict He punishes those who stop following him But he is kind to you if you continue trusting in his kindness If you dont continue depending on him you will be cut off from the tree,Kwa vizho munaona zho Mulungu arizho Mulungu ni mudzo na kidza kidza ni mukali Iye ni mukali kwa aryahu mariogwa Ela ni mudzo kwa ninwi muendererao kuima kahi za udzo wa kwakwe Ela mukiviricha thu hatha ninwi nanwi andamuthema here vitai amutsuhe
And if the Jews will believe in God again he will accept them back He is able to put them back where they were,Na o Aiziraeli mariotsufwa nao makiricha ko kutsakuluhira kwao Mulungu andaaudzya mo muhini marimokala mana ana nguvu za kuhenda vizho
It is not natural for a wild branch to become part of a good tree But you nonJewish people are like a branch cut from a wild olive tree And you were joined to a good olive tree But those Jews are like a branch that grew from the good tree So surely they can be joined to their own tree again,Mana ninwi were mu vitai zha muzeituni wa tsakani ela Mulungu akimuhendera ut'u uriwo si wa kawaida Akimuthema akidzamubandika kahi za muzeituni wenye Vidze k'avindakala kawaida zaidhi Mulungu kuaudzya Aiziraeli muhini mwao
I want you to understand this secret truth brothers and sisters This truth will help you understand that you dont know everything The truth is this Part of Israel has been made stubborn but that will change when enough nonJewish people have come to God,Ndugu zangu kuna ujeri wa ndani nirio ninahendza nimwambire muumanye p'ore mukadziona kukala munamanya zhomu kumbe munadzikenga Aiziraeli angine mahendywa makale na singo nyomu Ela singo nyomu iyo indaagoma wakathi yo hesabu ya at'u mario si Ayahudi indihokala idzagonya kumuhokera Masihi
And that is how all Israel will be saved The Scriptures say,Kwa vizho Iziraeli yosi indaokolwa Mana Maoro ganaamba kukala
And I will make this agreement with those people,Nami nindakala nidzathimiza kilagane changu
The Jews refuse to accept the Good News so they are Gods enemies This has happened to help you who are not Jews But they are still Gods chosen people and he loves them because of the promises he made to their ancestors,Kwa vizho bai Aiziraeli ni mahadhui a Mulungu kwa kukala makahala wo Uvoro Udzo Nao ni mahadhui a Mulungu kwa ut'u wenu ninwi at'u murio k'amu Ayahudi Ela kulengana na here Mulungu atsagulazho at'u ao ni asena a Mulungu kwa ut'u wa akare ao
God never changes his mind about the people he calls He never decides to take back the blessings he has given them,Kwani Mulungu akiatsagula at'u na kuap'a vigerwa k'agaluza nia bule
At one time you refused to obey God But now you have received mercy because the Jews refused to obey,Haho kapindi ninwi k'amumusikirire Mulungu Ela vivi ninwi mwahokera mbazi za Mulungu kukirira na ko kutsamusikira Mulungu kwa Aiziraeli
And now they are the ones who refuse to obey because God showed mercy to you But this happened so that they can also receive mercy from him,Kwa vizho hatha ao nao k'amamusikirire Mulungu ili kwamba zo mbazi murizozanyeswa ninwi nao mazihokere
All people have refused to obey God And he has put them all together as people who dont obey him so that he can show mercy to everyone,Kwani Mulungu waahendya at'u osi makale afungwa a kutsamusikira ili osi aaonere mbazi
Yes Gods riches are very great His wisdom and knowledge have no end No one can explain what God decides No one can understand his ways,Uthajiri wa Mulungu na ulachuwe na kumanyakwe k'avina muhaka K'akuna mut'u adimaye kumanya zho Mulungu atosazho kuhenda ut'u Kidza k'akuna adimaye kumanya ngira za kwakwe
As the Scriptures say,Kwani Maoro ganaamba kukala
Who has ever given God anything,H'aya ni h'ani ariyemukopesha kit'u hatha akale andarifwa
Yes God made all things And everything continues through him and for him To God be the glory forever Amen,Kwani kila kit'u chambola kwakwe na kila kit'u ki kuko kukirira na nguvu za kwakwe Na vit'u zhosi vinamuuyira mwenye Mulungu naagerwe nguma hatha kare na kare H'aami
So I beg you brothers and sisters because of the great mercy God has shown us offer your livesas a living sacrifice to himan offering that is only for God and pleasing to him Considering what he has done it is only right that you should worship him in this way,Kwa vizho bai ndugu zangu kwa ut'u wa mbazi nyinji arizofwanyesa Mulungu ninamuvoya sana kukala mumboze miri yenu here sadaka iriyo moyo eri na ya kukubalika mbere za Mulungu Kwani kuko be ndo kumuvoya Mulungu kwa jeri kiroho
Dont change yourselves to be like the people of this world but let God change you inside with a new way of thinking Then you will be able to understand and accept what God wants for you You will be able to know what is good and pleasing to him and what is perfect,Musigwire mitindo ya urumwengu bule Mulungu naamuhendye at'u asha kwa kumugaluza maazo genu Vivi vindamuhendya mumanye mahendzoge yani mundamanya ut'u udzo wa kukubalika na uriwo kamili mbere za Mulungu ni hiwo
God has given me a special gift and that is why I have something to say to each one of you Dont think that you are better than you really are You must see yourself just as you are Decide what you are by the faith God has given each of us,Kulengana na yo nema ariyonip'a Mulungu namala nimwambe kila mumwenga wenu kukala Mut'u asidzione kukala iye ni kit'u sana hatha kukira zho arizho Ela naakale na kiasi kahi za maazo ga kwakwe na adzipime kulengana na kiasi cha kuluhiro aricho Mulungu wamujalia kila mut'u
Each one of us has one body and that body has many parts These parts dont all do the same thing,Kwani mwiri ni mumwenga ela una vilungo vinji na kila kilungo kina kaziye
In the same way we are many people but in Christ we are all one body We are the parts of that body and each part belongs to all the others,Na vizho ndo virizho hatha kwehu siswi Fu anji jeri ela fwagwizanywa fukikala mwiri mumwenga kahi za Masihi Kwa vizho kila mut'u ni kilungo kahi za vilungo vingine
We all have different gifts Each gift came because of the grace God gave us Whoever has the gift of prophecy should use that gift in a way that fits the kind of faith they have,Bai kulengana na nema ya Mulungu fwap'ewa vigerwa tofauti-tofauti Vigerwa vivi nafuvihumire Chamba ni kumboza unabii nafuumboze kulengana na ro kuluhiro ariro Mulungu wafujalia naro
Whoever has the gift of serving should serve Whoever has the gift of teaching should teach,Chamba ni uhumiki nafuhumike Chamba ni kufundisha nafufundishe
Whoever has the gift of comforting others should do that Whoever has the gift of giving to help others should give generously Whoever has the gift of leading should work hard at it Whoever has the gift of showing kindness to others should do it gladly,Kala ni kuap'a at'u moyo nafuap'e at'u moyo Kala ni kuap'a at'u vit'u nafuap'e kwa moyo mudzo Chamba ni ulongozi nafulongoze kwa chadi Chamba ni kuonera mbazi at'u na kuaviza nafuvihende kwa furaha
Your love must be real Hate what is evil Do only what is good,Mahendzo genu nagakale mahendzo ga jeri Gwirani maut'u madzo mugazulie ela maut'u mai garicheni
Love each other in a way that makes you feel close like brothers and sisters And give each other more honor than you give yourself,Hendzanani here ndugu na kila mut'u naamuheshimu mwandziwe kukira ye mwenye
As you serve the Lord work hard and dont be lazy Be excited about serving him,Musikale akaha bule kalani na moho rohoni mwenu kahi za kumuhumikira Bwana
Be happy because of the hope you have Be patient when you have troubles Pray all the time,Kalani na raha kwa ut'u wa ro tumaini muriro naro Vumirirani mashaka na muvoye kwenda-kwenda
Share with Gods people who need help Look for people who need help and welcome them into your homes,Mbozani kwa ut'u wa mahumizi ga at'u a Mulungu Kidza karibishani ajeni t'ot'ot'o siku zosini
Wish only good for those who treat you badly Ask God to bless them not curse them,At'u makimutesa avoyereni madzo musiavoyere mai bule
When others are happy you should be happy with them And when others are sad you should be sad too,Furahini hamwenga na mafurahio na huzunikani hamwenga na mahuzunikao
Live together in peace with each other Dont be proud but be willing to be friends with people who are not important to others Dont think of yourself as smarter than everyone else,Ishini na masikizano kahikahi zenu Musidzihalire at'u a dzulu Gwiranani na at'u a kawaida na musidzione kukala munamanya
If someone does you wrong dont try to pay them back by hurting them Try to do what everyone thinks is right,Mut'u akikuhendera ut'u uwi usimurihe vii bule Aza kwandza umanye ni ut'u wani udimao kumufwaha kila mut'u
Do the best you can to live in peace with everyone,Kwa upande wenu jezani mwadimazho kuishi na dheri na at'u osi
My friends dont try to punish anyone who does wrong to you Wait for God to punish them with his anger In the Scriptures the Lord says,Ahendzwi musirihize bule ela zirichireni nafasi k'oro za Mulungu Kwani Maoro ganaamba kukala Bwana anaamba kurihiza nirichirani mimi nindarihiza
But you should do this,Ee Hadhuio akikala ana ndzala mup'e chakurya arye na kala ana k'ihu mup'e madzi anwe Ukihenda vizho undakala ni here udziyemuhika makala ga moho
Dont let evil defeat you but defeat evil by doing good,Musishindwe ni uwi ela ushindeni uwi kwa kuhenda madzo
All of you must obey the government rulers Everyone who rules was given the power to rule by God And all those who rule now were given that power by God,Kila mut'u naatii sirikali kwa kukala Mulungu ndiye ariyeip'a wadimi wa kulongoza Mana k'akuna sirikali hatha mwenga idimayo kuhala ulongozi bila kugerwa wadimi uwo ni Mulungu
So anyone who is against the government is really against something God has commanded Those who are against the government bring punishment on themselves,Kwa vizho mut'u akipinga sirikali anapinga ut'u uriwoikwa ni Mulungu na kila andiyepinga Mulungu andamuhukumu
People who do right dont have to fear the rulers But those who do wrong must fear them Do you want to be free from fearing them Then do only what is right and they will praise you,At'u mahendao mai ni aoga na athawali ela at'u mahendao madzo si aoga bule Bai kala unamala uishi bila kukala na woga na muthawali henda madzo naye andakulika
Rulers are Gods servants to help you But if you do wrong you have reason to be afraid They have the power to punish and they will use it They are Gods servants to punish those who do wrong,Muthawali ni muhumiki wa Mulungu na anahenda kazi kwa ajiliyo uwe Ela hamwenga na vizho Mulungu wamup'a wadimi kuangiza akili ahendi a mai ili k'oro za kwakwe zirihizwe Kwa vizho ukihenda mai mwagohe jeri ye muthawali mana iye ni muhumiki wa Mulungu nikuangiza akili ahendi a mai
So you must obey the government not just because you might be punished but because you know it is the right thing to do,Kwa vizho bai tiini sirikali si kwa ut'u wa kugoha k'oro za Mulungu thu-thu-thu ela hatha kwa kumanya kukala vizho ndo karakara
And this is why you pay taxes too Those rulers are working for God and they give all their time to the work of ruling,Kidza kwa sababu iyo vizho munariha kodi kwa sirikali mana athawali ni ahumiki a Mulungu na kazi yao ni iyo thu
Give everyone what you owe them If you owe them any kind of tax then pay it Show respect to those you should respect And show honor to those you should honor,Muriheni kila mut'u cho aviryacho kurifwa Rihani makodi gosi kwa kila aviryaye kugerwa kodi Kidza lazhani ishima kwa kila aviryaye kugerwa ishima
You should owe nothing to anyone except that you will always owe love to each other The person who loves others has done all that the law commands,Musikale na dheni na mut'u isihokala dheni ra mahendzo thu basi Kwani ukimuhendza mwandziyo undakala unathimiza Sheria zosi za Musa
The law says You must not commit adultery you must not murder anyone you must not steal you must not want what belongs to someone elseAll these commands and all other commands are really only one rule Love your neighborthe same as you love yourself,Kwani hatha zo amuri ziambazo Usizinge usalage usiiye usithamani kit'u cha mwandziyo na nyingine zosi zinadima kugwizanywa zikahendywa amuri mwenga iambayo Muhendze mwandziyo here udzihendzazho mwenye
Love doesnt hurt others So loving is the same as obeying all the law,Ukikala unamuhendza mwandziyo k'udima kumukosera bule Kwa vizho ukihendza mwandziyo unathimiza Sheria zosi za Musa
I say this because you know that we live in an important time Yes it is now time for you to wake up from your sleep Our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed,Na hendani vivi mukimanya fu kahi za wakathi wani Lamukani mana k'akuna wakathi wa kulala kaheri Kwani wo wokolwi wehu vivi be udzasongera hehi zaidhi kukira wo wakathi furiokuluhirira
The night is almost finished The day is almost here So we should stop doing whatever belongs to darkness We should prepare ourselves to fight evil with the weapons that belong to the light,Usiku unenda mwishoni na mutsana udzasongera hehi kwa vizho bai nafuvule mahendo ga kiza na fuvale silaha za mulangaza
We should live in a right way like people who belong to the day We should not have wild parties or be drunk We should not be involved in sexual sin or any kind of immoral behavior We should not cause arguments and trouble or be jealous,Nafuishi maisha madzo here at'u a mutsana maviryazho kuishi Musikale na namuna yoyosi ya urevi hedu uzindzi Musihehe hedu kuonerana wivu
But be like the Lord Jesus Christ so that when people see what you do they will see Christ Dont think about how to satisfy the desires of your sinful self,Ela muvaleni Bwana Jesu Masihi Kidza musikubali kuthimiza th'amaa mbii zihendzwazo ni mwiri
Be willing to accept those who still have doubts about what believers can do And dont argue with them about their different ideas,Akaribisheni at'u osi enye kuluhiro tsanga bila kugwadulana nao dzulu za zho maonazho ndo karakara hedu so karakara
Some people believe they can eat any kind of foodbut those who have doubts eat only vegetables,Kala uwe una kuluhiro ridzirokumala hatha unadima kurya chakurya chochosi mwandziyo ye arya mboga za makodza h'akeye kwa kukala kuluhiro ra kwakwe ni tsanga
Those who know they can eat any kind of food must not feel that they are better than those who eat only vegetables And those who eat only vegetables must not decide that those who eat all foods are wrong God has accepted them,Uwe uryaye kila kit'u usimuvudhye iye aryaye mboga za makodza h'akeye Na uwe uryaye mboga h'akeye nawe usimuhukumu iye aryaye kila kit'u kwa kukala Mulungu wamukubali
You cannot judge the servants of someone else Their own master decides if they are doing right or wrong And the Lords servants will be right because the Lord is able to make them right,Vidze we u h'ani hatha uhukumu muhumikingwa wa Mulungu Iyo si kaziyo bule ni kazi ya ye Bwanawe kumanya kala ro ahendaro ni karakara hedu si karakara Naye Bwana mwenye andamwanula hatha adime kuhenda zho virizho ndo karakara mana ana wadimi wa kuhenda vizho
Some people might believe that one day is more important than another And others might believe that every day is the same Everyone should be sure about their beliefs in their own mind,H'aya kuna at'u angine mario mana siku mariyo manaiishimu sana na ina mana sana kwao kukira siku nyingine zosi At'u angine o manaishimu siku zosi kwao ao siku zosi zi karakara Ndo kila mut'u naaime kwa zho aonazho ni karakara
Those who think one day is more important than other days are doing that for the Lord And those who eat all kinds of food are doing that for the Lord Yes they give thanks to God for that food And those who refuse to eat some foods do that for the Lord They also give thanks to God,Kwani ye aheshimuye siku mwenga anahenda vizho kwa kumuishimu Bwana Yuyahu ariye anadima kurya chochosi naye anahenda vizho kwa kumuishimu Bwana mana iye nikulazha muvera kwa chakurya kicho Kidza yuyahu atsagulaye zhakurya naye anahenda vizho kwa kumuishimu Bwana mana iye naye nikulazha muvera kwa Mulungu
We dont live or die just for ourselves,Kwani k'ahana mut'u hatha mumwenga kahikahi zehu aishiye hedu afwaye kwa ut'uwe mwenye
If we live we are living for the Lord And if we die we are dying for the Lord So living or dying we belong to the Lord,Fukiishi funaishi here Bwana ahendzazho fukifwa nazho funafwa here Bwana ahendzazho Kwa vizho bai fukaishi hedu fukafwa sino fu a Bwana thu
That is why Christ died and rose from death to live againso that he could be Lord over those who have died and those who are living,Na vivi ndo virizhomuhendya Masihi akifwa na akifufuka ili akale Bwana wa mario moyo na mariofwa
So why do you judge your brother or sister in Christ Or why do you think that you are better than they are We will all stand before God and he will judge us all,H'aya vikara ni kwanoni umuhukumu hedu umuvudhye nduguyo na kuno kila mumwenga andaima mbere za Mulungu ahukumiwe kizhakwe
Yes the Scriptures say,Kwani Maoro ganaamba
So each of us will have to explain to God about the things we do,Kwa vizho kila mumwenga wehu andamboza hesabuye mwenye mbere za Mulungu
So we should stop judging each other Lets decide not to do anything that will cause a problem for a brother or sister or hurt their faith,Kwa ut'u uwo bai husihukumiane kaheri bule ela nahuhakikishe kukala kila ut'u fundiwouhenda k'aukala kikwazo kwa ndugu yoyosi
I know that there is no food that is wrong to eat The Lord Jesus is the one who convinced me of that But if someone believes that something is wrong then it is wrong for that person,Kulengana na zho nimumanyazho Bwana Jesu ninamanya kidza nina hakika kukala k'akuna chakurya kikolo bule Ela chakurya chochosi kinadima kukala kikolo kwakwe iye achonaye kukala ni kikolo
If you hurt the faith of your brother or sister because of something you eat you are not really following the way of love Dont destroy anyones faith by eating something they think is wrong Christ died for them,Bai kala cho chakurya uryacho kinamukwaza na kumuhuzunisha nduguyo manya kukala k'uishi kahi za mahendzo bule Usikubali kumugwaga mut'u ariye Masihi wakudzamufwerera kwa sababu ya cho chakurya uryacho uwe
Dont allow what is good for you to become something they say is evil,Kwa vizho wo ut'u uwonawo kukala ni udzo usiuhendye ukanenwa vii ni at'u angine
In Gods kingdom what we eat and drink is not important Here is what is important a right way of life peace and joyall from the Holy Spirit,Kwani uthawali wa Mulungu si kurya na kunwa bule ela ni wa uhachi dheri na furaha kahi za Roho Mweri
Whoever serves Christ by living this way is pleasing God and they will be accepted by others,Na kila andiyemuhumikira Masihi kwa ngira ii andamufwahiza Mulungu na hatha at'u nao mandamulika
So lets try as hard as we can to do what will bring peace Lets do whatever will help each other grow stronger in faith,Kwa vizho bai nafuthuwe maut'u ga kufurehera dheri na ga kufuhendya fujengane
Dont let the eating of food destroy the work of God All food is right to eat but it is wrong for anyone to eat something that hurts the faith of another person,Usiriche chakurya kikanonga kazi ya Mulungu Kila chakurya ni kisafi ela mut'u yoyosi andiyemugwaga mwandziwe kiroho kwa sababu ya cho chakurya aryacho andakala ni mukosa
It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or do anything else that hurts the faith of your brother or sister,Kala kurya nyama hedu kunwa divai hedu kuhenda ut'u ungine wowosi kundamuhendya nduguyo akwazike karakara ni kuviricha kamare
You should keep your beliefs about these things a secret between yourself and God It is a blessing to be able to do what you think is right without feeling guilty,Kwa vizho zho urizho unakuluhira kukala kwako ni karakara dzulu za maut'u gaga zhike here siri ya uwe na Mulunguo Baha mut'u ariye akihenda ut'u awonao kukala ni karakara kuuhenda k'asikira hukumu moyoni mwakwe
But anyone who eats something without being sure it is right is doing wrong That is because they did not believe it was right And if you do anything that you believe is not right it is sin,Ela mut'u andiyerya kit'u na kuno moyo k'aumup'a andahukumiwa kwa kukala andakala adzahenda ut'u uriwo hatha ye mwenye k'akuluhira kukala ni karakara Kwani kila kit'u kiricho k'akithuwana na kuluhiro ni dambi
Some of us have no problem with these things So we should be patient with those who are not so strong and have doubts We should not do what pleases us,Siswi furio funa kuluhiro ridzirokumala nafuavumirire na kuaviza aryahu enye kuluhiro tsanga kahi za utsanga wao fusidzifwahize enye thu
but do what pleases them and is for their good We should do whatever helps everyone grow stronger in faith,Kila mumwenga wehu naamufwahize mwandziwe na kumujenga kahi za kuluhirore Kila hundiromuhendera mwandziwehu nafurihende kwa faidhaye iye si kwa faidha yehu
Even Christ did not live trying to please himself As the Scriptures say about him Those people who insulted you have also insulted me,Kwani Masihi k'adzifwahizire mwenye bule wahenda here Maoro gaambazho Mana Maoro ganaamba Ko kavudhye urikohenderwa ni o at'u a kavudhye vivi be kadzanigwerera mimi
Everything that was written in the past was written to teach us Those things were written so that we could have hope That hope comes from the patience and encouragement that the Scriptures give us,Na Maoro gosi garigoorwa hangu kapindi ganahufundisha na kufup'a moyo ili kwamba fudime kuthariza vilagane zha Mulungu kwa kuvumirira na kwa th'amaa
All patience and encouragement come from God And I pray that God will help you all agree with each other as Christ Jesus wants,Mulungu afup'aye moyo na kuvumirira naamuhendye muishi na dheri kahikahi zenu here Masihi Jesu ahendzazho
Then you will all be joined together And all together you will give glory to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,Na vizho vindamuhendya mudime kumulika Mulungu Babaye Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi kwa umwenga
Christ accepted you so you should accept each other This will bring honorto God,Karibishanani dza viryahu Masihi arizhomukaribisha ninwi Na vizho vindamup'a nguma Mulungu
I tell you that Christ became a servant of the Jews to show that God has done what he promised their great ancestors,Ninamwambira kukala Masihi wakudzaahumikira Ayahudi ili aanyese kukala Mulungu ni mujeri kidza viryahu vilagane zha Mulungu arizhoalaga akare ao vipate kuthimira
Christ also did this so that the nonJewish people could praise God for the mercy he gives to them The Scriptures say,Vivi wavihenda ili at'u mario si Ayahudi nao makamup'e nguma Mulungu kwa zo mbazi za kwakwe Kwani Maoro ganaamba
And the Scriptures say,Kidza gananena kaheri na kuamba
The Scriptures also say,Na gago vizho gananena kaheri na kuamba
And Isaiah says,Na kidza nabii Isaya naye anaamba
I pray that the God who gives hope will fill you with much joy and peace as you trust in him Then you will have more and more hope and it will flow out of you by the power of the Holy Spirit,Bai Mulungu ahup'aye tumaini naamup'e furaha na dheri kahi za kumukuluhira kwenu Vivi navikale ili kwamba kukirira na nguvu za Roho Mweri th'amaa yenu ikaze kukala nyinji
My brothers and sisters I know without a doubt that you are full of goodness and have all the knowledge you need So you are certainly able to counsel each other,Ndugu zangu mimi mwenye be nina hakika kukala mu at'u adzo sana kidza maut'u gaga nidzigoganena munagamanyat'o sana hatha munadima kufundishana enye kwa enye
But I have written to you very openly about some things that I wanted you to remember I did this because God gave me this special gift,Ela kuna maut'u mangine nidzigogandhika lwazu-lwazu ili nimukumbukize Na vivi nidzavihenda kwa iyo nema ariyonijalia Mulungu
to be a servant of Christ Jesus for those who are not Jews I serve like a priest whose duty it is to tell Gods Good News He gave me this work so that you nonJewish people could be an offering that he will acceptan offering made holy by the Holy Spirit,ya kunihendya nikale muhumiki wa Masihi Jesu kahi za at'u mario si Ayahudi Ninamuhendera kazi here mulombi wa wo Uvoro Udzo wa Mulungu ili ao at'u mario si Ayahudi madime kukala sadaka idziyotsuswa ni Roho Mweri na kukubaliwa ni Mulungu
That is why I feel so good about what I have done for God in my service to Christ Jesus,Kwa vizho kahi za Masihi Jesu nina sababu ya kunyeth'era yo kazi yangu nimuhenderayo Mulungu
I will not talk about anything I did myself I will talk only about what Christ has done with me in leading the nonJewish people to obey God They have obeyed him because of what I have said and done,Sindadima kunena dzulu za ut'u wowosi ungine isihokala zho Masihi arizhothimiza kukirira kwangu Kwani Masihi waahendya at'u mario si Ayahudi mamutii Mulungu kukirira na maneno na mahendo gangu
And they obeyed him because of the power of the miraculous signs and wonders that happenedall because of the power of Gods Spirit I have told people the Good News about Christ in every place from Jerusalem to Illyricum And so I have finished that part of my work,na kukirira kwa nguvu za miujiza na nguvu za Roho Mweri Nami wo Uvoro Udzo wa Masihi be nauhubiri kamare Mana nadengereka kula Jerusalemu hatha Iluriko kuhubiri Uvoro Udzo thu
I always want to tell the Good News in places where people have never heard of Christ I do this because I dont want to build on the work that someone else has already started,Na siku zosi lengo rangu were ni kuhubiri Uvoro Udzo kwa at'u mario were k'amadzangwe kusikira dzina ra Masihi Mana nere ts'endzi kujenga dzulu za musinji wa mut'u mungine
But as the Scriptures say,Kwani Maoro ganaamba
Thats what has kept me so busy and prevented my coming to see you even though I have wanted to come many times,Na kuku kudengereka be ndo sababu iriyo wakathi munji idzakala ikinithiza kudza ko kwenu
Now I have finished my work in these areas And for many years I have wanted to visit you,Ela kwa kukala yo kazi ya kuhubiri wo Uvoro Udzo upande uu naigonya na zho zha kukala nidzakala nikithamani kudza ko kwenu kwa miaka minji
So I will visit you when I go to Spain Yes I hope to visit you while I am traveling to Spain and I will stay and enjoy being with you Then you can help me continue on my trip,ninaona vivi nindakudza Nindakira na kuko kwenu wakathi nindihokala ninenda Sipania haho ndiho fundihoonana Ninahendza nidze nimulamuse na hufwahirwe hamwenga kwa muda mufuti gonya munavize kwenda ko Sipania
Now I am going to Jerusalem to help Gods people there,Ela vivi kare be ninenda Jerusalemu nikaahirikire musadha at'u a Mulungu
Some of them are poor and the believers in Macedonia and Achaia wanted to help them So they gathered some money to send them,Kwani at'u a makanisa ga Mak'edonia na Akaia maona ni vidzo kutsanga p'esa kwa ut'u wa o at'u a Mulungu mario ni masikini kuko Jerusalemu
They were happy to do this And it was like paying something they owed them because as nonJews they have been blessed spiritually by the Jews So now they should use the material blessings they have to help the Jews,At'u ao mahenda vizho kwa kuhendza kwao enye Ela hatha hamwenga na vizho vinaavirya maavize o masikini kuko kwa kukala o at'u mario si Ayahudi mapata baraka za kiroho kukirira na o Ayahudi Kwa vizho ao nao manavirya maavize o Ayahudi kwa kuap'a vit'u
I am going to Jerusalem to make sure the poor get this money that has been given for them,Bai nikikala nidzagonya kwenda Jerusalemu na kuap'a o at'u a Mulungu zo p'esa zosi marizotsangirwa nindafunga charo cha kwenda Sipania ela bai nindakira na ko kwenu kwandza
And I know that when I visit you I will bring you Christs full blessing,Nami ninamanya kamare kukala nikidza kuko nindamurehera baraka nyinji za Masihi
Brothers and sisters I beg you to help me in my work by praying to God for me Do this because of our Lord Jesus and the love that the Spirit gives us,Vikara ndugu zangu ninamuvoya sana kwa dzina ra Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi na kwa mahendzo garefwago ni Roho Mweri musite kuvoya Mulungu hamwenga nami
Pray that I will be saved from those in Judea who refuse to accept our message And pray that this help I am bringing to Jerusalem will please Gods people there,Nivoyerani sana ili kwamba Mulungu akadime kunithizha na ao Ayahudi masiokuluhira kuko jimbo ra Judea na ili o at'u a Mulungu ko Jerusalemu makadime kuhokera yo huduma yangu
Then if God wants me to I will come to you I will come with joy and together you and I will have a time of rest,Bai nikigonya vizho Mulungu ahendzaho nindakudzamulamusa Nindahenda raha sana nikidzaoya hamwenga nanwi

This proves that what we told you about Christ is true,Na vivi mwahakikishirwa kukala wo ushahidhi huriwomboza siswi dzulu za Masihi be ni wa jeri
Now you have every gift from God while you wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to come again,Na kwa ut'u uwo k'akuna kigerwa cha kiroho hatha kimwenga muricho k'amuna kahi za wakathi uu wa kumuthariza Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi anyeswe lwazu
He will keep you strong until the end so that on the day when our Lord Jesus Christ comes you will be free from all blame,Na iye Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi andamuhendya mukale na nguvu muhaka mwisho ili kwamba yo siku ya kudzakwe amuthekeze k'amuna kaila bule
God is faithful He is the one who has chosen you to share life with his Son Jesus Christ our Lord,Ye Mulungu ariyemwiha ninwi ili mukale na umwenga kahi za mwanawe Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi ni mwaminifu
Brothers and sisters by the authority of our Lord Jesus Christ I beg all of you to agree with each other You should not be divided into different groups Be completely joined together again with the same kind of thinking and the same purpose,Ndugu zangu ninamuvoya zhomu kahi za dzina ra Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi kukala nyosi musikizane bila kugazhana Kalani kit'u kimwenga kahi za maazo genu na kahi za nia zenu
My brothers and sisters some members of Chloes family told me that there are arguments among you,Kwani at'u a nyumba ya Kiloe makudzanambirat'o sana kukala ninwi ndugu zangu be munagwadulana sana
This is what I mean One of you says I follow Paul and someone else says I follow Apollos Another says I follow Peter and someone else says I follow Christ,Yani kila mut'u a kizhakwe Angine manaamba ni a P'aulo angine manaamba ni a Apolo angine manaamba ni a K'efa na angine manaamba ni a Masihi
Christ cannot be divided into different groups It wasnt Paul who died on the cross for you was it Were you baptized in Pauls name,Kwani yuno Masihi a k'ana nyingahi Vidze ye P'aulo wasulubiwa kwa ut'u wenu Hedu mwabat'izwa kahi za dzina ra P'aulo
I am thankful that I did not baptize any of you except Crispus and Gaius,Ninashukuru mana sibat'izire mut'u mungine yoyosi kahi zenu isihokala K'irisipo na Gayo
I am thankful because now no one can say that you were baptized in my name,Kwa vizho k'ahana mut'u kahi zenu adimaye kuamba kukala namubat'iza kahi za dzina rangu
I also baptized the family of Stephanas but I dont remember that I myself baptized any others,Namubat'iza Sitefana na nyumbaye jeri Ela zaidhi ya ao simanya kubat'iza mut'u mungine yoyosi
Christ did not give me the work of baptizing people He gave me the work of telling the Good News But he sent me to tell the Good News without using clever speech which would take away the power that is in the crossof Christ,Kwani Masihi k'anihumire nidze nibat'ize at'u ela wanihuma nidze nihubiri Uvoro Udzo Na Uvoro uwo sidzireuhubiri kwa ulachu wa kumanya kunena Nahenda vivi ili kwamba wo musalaba wa Masihi usihokwe nguvu za kwakwe bule
The teaching about the cross seems foolish to those who are lost But to us who are being saved it is the power of God,Kwani kwa at'u mangamikao wo uvoro wa Masihi kufwa dzulu za musalaba hatha ni uzuzu Ela kwehu siswi huokolwao uvoro uwo ni nguvu za Mulungu
As the Scriptures say,Mana Maoro ganaamba
So what does this say about the philosopher the law expert or anyone in this world who is skilled in making clever arguments God has made the wisdom of the world look foolish,H'aya kala Mulungu adzauhendya ulachu wosi wa haha ts'i ukale uzuzu uhuhu nwi at'u alachu ulachu wenu uhiho Hedu nwi ashomi elimu yenu ihiho H'aya nanwi enye akili za kupigana k'anani kahi za urumwengu uno yo akili yenu ihiho
This is what God in his wisdom decided Since the world did not find him through its own wisdom he used the message that sounds foolish to save those who believe it,Kwani kahi za ulachu wa Mulungu mudamu k'adima kumumanya kukirira na wo ulachu wa kwakwe wa kidamu Ndosa Mulungu akiona ni vidzo ahumire wo uzuzu fuhubiriwo ili osi mandiokuluhira mapate kuokolwa
The Jews ask for miraculous signs and the Greeks want wisdom,Mana Ayahudi manamala manyeswe miujiza na Ayunani manamala ulachu
But this is the message we tell everyone Christ was killed on a cross This message is a problem for Jews and to other people it is nonsense,ela sino funamuhubiri Masihi ariyesulubiwa musalabani Uvoro uu unaatsukiza Ayahudi na kwa Ayunani ni uzuzu
But Christ is Gods power and wisdom to the people God has chosen both Jews and Greeks,Ela kwa aryahu mariotsagulwa ni Mulungu Ayahudi kwa Ayunani uvoro uu be ni Masihi ariye iye nde nguvu ya Mulungu kidza ndiye ulachu wa Mulungu
Even the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom Even the weakness of God is stronger than human strength,Kwani uwo uriwo unaonewa kukala ni uzuzu wa Mulungu be ni ulachu kukira ulachu wa mudamu na uryahu uriwo unaonekana kukala ni unyonge wa Mulungu be una nguvu kukira nguvu za mudamu
Brothers and sisters God chose you to be his Think about that Not many of you were wise in the way the world judges wisdom Not many of you had great influence and not many of you came from important families,Lolani ndugu zangu wakathi murihotsagulwa si anji enu mariokala ni alachu kidhunia hedu enye zheo hedu at'u mambolao kahi za nyumba za mana
But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise He chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong,Ela Mulungu watsagula vit'u marizhokala at'u manazhona ni vizuzu na vinyonge ili aagwize haya at'u alachu na at'u enye nguvu
And God chose what the world thinks is not importantwhat the world hates and thinks is nothing He chose these to destroy what the world thinks is important,Mulungu watsagula vit'u virizho at'u manavivudhya na kuzhona k'avina mana yoyosi na akivihumira kuvonongera vit'u virizhohalirwa kukala ni zha mana
God did this so that no one can stand before him and boast about anything,Kwa vizho k'akuna mudamu adimaye kudzionya mbere za Mulungu
It is God who has made you part of Christ Jesus And Christ has become for us wisdom from God He is the reason we are right with God and pure enough to be in his presence Christ is the one who set us free from sin,Mulungu h'akeye ndiye ariyemuhendya ninwi muishi kahi za Masihi Jesu kidza akimuhendya ye Masihi akale nde ulachu wehu Kwa vizho kukirira kwa iye Masihi siswi fwatsuswa fukikombolwa na fukihendywa ahachi
So as the Scriptures say Whoever boasts should boast only about the Lord,Na ndosa Maoro ganaamba Kila adzionyaye naadzionye kahi za Bwana
Dear brothers and sisters when I came to you I told you the secret truth of God But I did not use fancy words or great wisdom,Bai ndugu zangu wakathi nirihokudza kuko kwenu nakudza nimwambirize siriya Mulungu Na siri iyo simwambirizire kwa ulachu wowosi hedu kumanya kunena
I decided that while I was with you I would forget about everything except Jesus Christ and his death on the cross,Mana nere natosa kukala nisimanye maut'u mangine gogosi kahi zenu isihokala Jesu Masihi na kifwa cha kwakwe ho musalabani
When I came to you I was weak and shook with fear,Nirihokala nanwi nakala sina nguvu kidza nere ninathethema kwa woga
My teaching and my speaking were not with wise words that persuade people But the proof of my teaching was the power that the Spirit gives,Na wo uvoro niriwokala nawo be simwambirizire kwa kuhumira maneno ga kumwangola-ngola hedu ulachu wowosi hatha bule Mimi namwambiriza kwa kumwanyesa vihendo zha Roho na zha nguvu
I did this so that your faith would be in Gods power not in human wisdom,Nami nahenda vivi ili kwamba ro kuluhiro renu risitegemee ulachu wa mudamu ela ritegemee nguvu za Mulungu
We teach wisdom to people who are mature but the wisdom we teach is not from this world It is not the wisdom of the rulers of this world who are losing their power,Ela hatha hamwenga na vizho siswi nikuafundisha ulachu at'u madziokumala Na ulachu uwo si wa wakathi uu huriwo hedu wa athawali a vikara mana uthawali wao undakira
But we speak Gods secret wisdom that has been hidden from everyone until now God planned this wisdom for our glory He planned it before the world began,Hunafundisha ulachu wa Mulungu uriwokala ni siri kwa anadamu Na ulachu uwo Mulungu waupanga hangu urumwengu k'audzaumbwa ili fukadime kuhokera nguma
None of the rulers of this world understood this wisdom If they had understood it they would not have killed our great and glorious Lord on a cross,Na k'akuna muthawali hatha mumwenga wakathi uu furiwo ariyemanya ulachu uu Kwani kala mamanya k'amangamusulubishire bule ye Bwana wa nguma
But as the Scriptures say,Mana Maoro ganaamba kukala
But God has shown us these things through the Spirit,Na Mulungu wahugunulira siswi siri ya maut'u gago kukirira kwa Roho Kwani Roho ndiye achunguzaye kila kit'u hatha zo siri za Mulungu za ndani-ndani
It is like this No one knows the thoughts that another person has Only the persons spirit that lives inside knows those thoughts It is the same with God No one knows Gods thoughts except Gods Spirit,Kwani mut'u mungine k'adima kumanya maazo gangu ela roho yangu inagamanya gosi Na vizho ndo virizho hatha kwa Mulungu k'akuna adimaye kumanya maazoge hasihokala ye Rohowe
We received the Spirit that is from God not the spirit of the world We received Gods Spirit so that we can know all that God has given us,Bai siswi k'afuhokerere roho ya urumwengu uu ela fwahokera Roho wa kula kwa Mulungu Na iye nde afuhendyaye hatha fukang'alirwa ni vigerwa vivi zhosi arizhohup'a Mulungu
When we say this we dont use words taught to us by human wisdom We use words taught to us by the Spirit We use the Spirits words to explain spiritual truths,Na k'afumwambira maut'u gaga kwa kuhumira maneno ga ulachu wa kidamu ela funahumira maneno hufundishwago ni Roho Hunaang'aziza at'u ujeri wa kiroho kwa maneno ga kiroho
People who do not have Gods Spirit do not accept the things that come from his Spirit They think these things are foolish They cannot understand them because they can only be understood with the Spirits help,Maut'u ga Roho wa Mulungu ni ga kiroho nago gamung'alira mut'u ariye kahi za Roho Mut'u ariye k'akahi za Roho maut'u gaga kwakwe ni uzuzu kwa kukala k'agamung'alira bule Kwa vizho mut'u dza iye k'adima kuelewa maut'u ga Roho wa Mulungu
We who have the Spirit are able to make judgments about all these things But anyone without the Spirit is not able to make proper judgments about us,Siswi hurio kahi za Roho huna wadimi wa kuelewa kila kit'u ela at'u angine k'amahuelewa bule
As the Scriptures say,Kwani Maoro ganaamba kukala
Brothers and sisters when I was there I could not talk to you the way I talk to people who are led by the Spirit I had to talk to you like ordinary people of the world You were like babies in Christ,Ndugu zangu wakathi nirihokala nanwi sinenere nanwi here nidimazho kunena na at'u mario na Roho nanena nanwi here at'u mario kimwiri na ana atsanga kahi za Masihi
And the teaching I gave you was like milk not solid food I did this because you were not ready for solid food And even now you are not ready,Mimi namunwesa mazia simup'ere chakurya chomu bule mana were k'amudzangwe kukala a chakurya chomu Na hatha vivi kidza ninamona kukala k'amudzangwe bule
You are still not following the Spirit You are jealous of each other and you are always arguing with each other This shows that you are still following your own selfish desires You are acting like ordinary people of the world,mana muchere kuishi kimwiri Kwani ko kuonerana wivu na kugwadulana kwenu be kunanyesa kukala muchere kuishi kimwiri here at'u a kawaida
One of you says I follow Paul and someone else says I follow Apollos When you say things like that you are acting like people of the world,H'aya kala angine manaamba kukala Sino fu a P'aulo na angine manaamba Sino fu a Apolo mundakosadze kuambwa kukala mu at'u a urumwengu
Is Apollos so important Is Paul so important We are only servants of God who helped you believe Each one of us did the work God gave us to do,Kwani mino na ye Apolo hu ano h'ani Siswi be hu ahumiki a Mulungu thu na kukirira kwehu siswi ninwi mwakuluhira Kila mut'u anahenda kaziye kulengana na zho arizhojaliwa ni Bwana
I planted the seed and Apollos watered it But God is the one who made the seed grow,Mimi nalaya Apolo ye akimwagira madzi ela ariyekuza ni Mulungu
So the one who plants is not important and the one who waters is not important Only God is important because he is the one who makes things grow,Kwa vizho mubomu si ye mulayi hedu ye mumwagiri wa madzi mubomu ni Mulungu kwa kukala nde akuzaye
The one who plants and the one who waters have the same purpose And each one will be rewarded for his own work,Ye mulayi na ye mumwagiri wa madzi osi ni amwenga na kila mut'u andarifwa mushaharawe kulengana na kaziye mwenye
We are workers together for God and you are like a farm that belongs to God,Kwani Apolo ni muhendzi wa kazi mwandzangu ela hosini fu ahendzi a kazi a Mulungu Ninwi mu munda wa Mulungu hedu dzengo ra Mulungu
Like an expert builder I built the foundation of that house I used the gift that God gave me to do this Other people are building on that foundation But everyone should be careful how they build,Kwa nema ariyonip'a Mulungu mimi naika musinji here muaki mubomu na mut'u mungine anaaka kahi za musinji uwo Bai kila andiyeaka dzulu za musinji uwo niaaket'o
The foundation that has already been built is Jesus Christ and no one can build any other foundation,Kwani k'akuna mut'u hatha mumwenga adimaye kuika musinji mungine isihokala uwo uriwoikwa ni Mulungu kare Na musinji uwo ni Jesu Masihi
People can build on that foundation using gold silver jewels wood grass or straw,Bai kila amalaye kuaka dzulu za musinji uwo anadima kuhumira vit'u ahendzazho Anadima kuhumira dhahabu fedha hedu mawe ga kima kibomu Hedu anadima kuhumira mbao miguwa na nyasi
But the work that each person does will be clearly seen because the Day will make it plain That Day will appear with fire and the fire will test everyones work,Ela siku iyo ya Masihi kazi ya kila mut'u indanyeswa lwazu Siku iyo kazi zosi zindapimwa na moho na uwo moho ndiwo undiwonyesa kazi ya kila mut'u lwazu-lwazu chamba ni mbidzo hedu ni mbii
If the building they put on the foundation still stands they will get their reward,Chamba kazi ariyoihenda mut'u dzulu za wo musinji k'aindasha mut'u iye andahokera zawadi
But if their building is burned up they will suffer loss They will be saved but it will be like someone escaping from a fire,Ela kazi ariyoihenda mut'u ikisha iye andakala adzaingamiza yosi Iye mwenye andaokolwa kamwe ela andaokolwa here mut'u adziyehenda kuthia kula kahi za moho
You should know that you yourselves are Gods templeGods Spirit lives in you,Vidze k'amumanya kukala mu hekalu ra Mulungu na Roho wa Mulungu anakala ndani mwenu
If you destroy Gods temple God will destroy you because Gods temple is holy You yourselves are Gods temple,Ninwi ndinwi hekalu ra Mulungu na hekalu ra Mulungu ni hekalu rieri Bai kila andiyenonga hekalu ra Mulungu iye naye andanongwa ni Mulungu
Dont fool yourselves Whoever thinks they are wise in this world should become a fool Thats the only way they can be wise,Mut'u asidzikenge bule Chamba hana mut'u kahi zenu ariye anadziona ni mulachu kahi za wakathi uu furiwo iye naakale muzuzu ili adime kukala mulachu
I say this because the wisdom of this world is foolishness to God As the Scriptures say He catches those who think they are wise in their own clever traps,Kwani ulachu wa urumwengu uu kwa Mulungu ni uzuzu Mana Maoro ganaamba kukala
The Scriptures also say The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise He knows that their thoughts are worth nothing,Kidza Maoro ganaamba kaheri kukala
So there is not a person on earth that any of you should be boasting about Everything is yours,Kwa vizho bai mut'u asidzionyere mwanadamu mana kila kit'u ni chenu
Paul Apollos Peter the world life death the present and the futureall these are yours,Akakala P'aulo hedu Apolo hedu K'efa Hedu ukakala urumwengu uzima kifwa wakathi uu huriwo hedu wakathi udzao gosi ni genu ninwi
And you belong to Christ and Christ belongs to God,Na ninwi mu a Masihi na Masihi naye ni wa Mulungu
You should think of us as servants of Christ the ones God has trusted to do the work of making known his secret truths,Siswi be fuhalireni here ahumiki a Masihi furiogerwa kazi ya kuimirira siri za Mulungu
Those who are trusted with such an important work must show that they are worthy of that trust,Mut'u yoyosi aimiriraye ut'u ni hatha aonekane kukala ni mwaminifu kwa bwanawe
But I dont consider your judgment on this point to be worth anything Even an opinion from a court of law would mean nothing I dont even trust my own judgment,Ela ninwi mukinihukumu hedu hatha nikihukumiwa kahi za koti ra anadamu vizho hatha sizhona kit'u mino Hatha mimi mwenye kidza sidzihukumu bule
I dont know of any wrong I have done but that does not make me right The Lord is the one who must decide if I have done well or not,Simanya ut'u wowosi uwi niriwouhenda ela vizho k'avinihendya muhachi bule Bwana nde adimaye kunihukumu
So dont judge anyone now The time for judging will be when the Lord comes He will shine light on everything that is now hidden in darkness He will make known the secret purposes of our hearts Then the praise each person should get will come from God,Kwa vizho musihukumu na wakathi wa hukumu k'audzafika Hukumu indakala haho andihokudza Bwana Iye andagamboza halamu maut'u gosi garigofitswa kizani na kunyesa lwazu nia za at'u zirizokala kahi za mioyo yao Na haho ndo Mulungu andihomulika kila mut'u here viviryazho
Brothers and sisters I have used Apollos and myself as examples for you I did this so that you could learn from us the meaning of the words Follow what the Scriptures say Then you will not brag about one person and criticize another,Ndugu zangu mifano ii nidziyoimboza dzulu za mimi na Apolo ni kwa faidha yenu ninwi Mifano ii dzailazha ili mudzifundishe kuhenda here Maoro gaambazho bila kungeza p'ore mut'u akadzionyera mut'u mumwenga ela mungine ye akamuvudhya
Who do you think you are Everything you have was given to you So if everything you have was given to you why do you act as if you got it all by your own power,Vidze una kit'u chani we kiricho angine k'amana Samba kila kit'u wakigerwa ni Mulungu H'aya kala kila kit'u wahenda kukigerwa kwanoni udzionye na vit'u urizhohenda kuvigerwa here kwamba ni zhako
You think you have everything you need You think you are rich You think you have become kings without us I wish you really were kings Then we could rule together with you,Munadziona kukala mu thele vit'u na kidza mu mathajiri k'amuna mumu Munadziona kukala mudzakala athawali hatha bila siswi Bai kala mu athawali jeri fukathawala hosi
But it seems to me that God has given me and the other apostles the last place We are like prisoners condemned to die led in a parade for the whole world to seenot just people but angels too,Zho nionazho ni here Mulungu wafwika siswi ahumwi fukale at'u a mwisho kamare Hatha fu here at'u mariohukumiwa kwalagwa mbere za at'u Urumwengu muzima unafulolera malaika nao dzazho hamwenga na at'u
We are fools for Christ but you think you are so wise in Christ We are weak but you think you are so strong People give you honor but they dont honor us,Siswi hu azuzu kwa ut'u wa Masihi ela ninwi mu alachu kahi za Masihi Sino fu anyonge ela ninwi muna nguvu Munaishimiwa ela sino hatha k'afuonewa kit'u
Even now we still dont have enough to eat or drink and we dont have enough clothes We often get beatings We have no homes,Funasirima na ndzala na k'ihu hatha haha ninenaho Funanenda huhu na kupigwa na hatha ho ha kukala henye naho k'ahuna
We work hard with our own hands to feed ourselves When people insult us we ask God to bless them When people treat us badly we accept it,Funabigilika na kuhenda kazi na mikono yehu enye Fukisholerwa funaavoyera madzo ao mafusholerao Fukiteswa funavumirira
When people say bad things about us we try to say something that will help them But people still treat us like the worlds garbageeveryones trash,Fukisingizirwa funadzigidzya kwa up'ore Urumwengu muzima k'aufwona kit'u funahalirwa here uchafu hatha haha ninenaho
I am not trying to make you feel ashamed but I am writing this to counsel you as my own dear children,Mimi simwandhikira vivi ili nimugwize haya ela namwandhikira ili nimukanye here anangu nimuhendzao zhomu
You may have ten thousand teachers in Christ but you dont have many fathers Through the Good News I became your father in Christ Jesus,Kwani hatha mukakala na arezi angahi kahi za Masihi kidza mimi h'akiyangu ndimi babiyenu Mana wakathi nirihomwambiriza wo Uvoro Udzo ndo nirihokala babiyenu kahi za Masihi Jesu
So I beg you to be like me,Bai ninamuvoya zhomu mukale here mimi
That is why I am sending Timothy to you He is my son in the Lord I love him and trust him He will help you remember the way I live in Christ Jesusa way of life that I teach in every meeting of the church wherever I am,Na ndosa vivi namuhuma T'imoth'i kwenu T'imoth'i ni mwanangu kahi za Bwana Ninamuhendza zhomu Iye ni mwaminifu naye andamukumbukiza zho niishizho kahi za Masihi Na vizho niishizho ndizho nifundishazho kahi za makanisa gosi kila hat'u
Some of you are acting so proud it seems as though you think I wont be coming there again,At'u angine makwatya kudzionya kwa kukala manaona sindakudza kaheri
But I will come to you very soon the Lord willing Then I will see if these proud talkers have the power to do anything more than talk,Bwana akihendza nindakudza sindatoa bule Na haho nikidza nindakudza nidzionere mwenye dzulu za o at'u madzionyao Go maneno gao manenago sindagalola bule nindalola zo nguvu za Mulungu marizo nazo
Gods kingdom is not seen in talk but in power,Kwani uthawali wa Mulungu si maneno mahuhu bule ni nguvu
Which do you want that I come to you with punishment or that I come with love and gentleness,H'aya nikikala ninadza nidze nimwangize akili hedu nidze na moyo wa mahendzo na up'ore Tsagulani enye
I dont want to believe what I am hearingthat there is sexual sin among you And it is such a bad kind of sexual sin that even those who have never known God dont allow it People say that a man there has his fathers wife,Vinanenwa kamare kukala kuna uzindzi kahi za kanisa renu Na uzindzi uwo ni mui-mui sana hatha at'u masiomumanya Mulungu kidza k'amadima kuuhenda Ninasikira kukala mumo kanisani mwenu muna mut'u ariye anakala na mukaza babaye
And still you are proud of yourselves You should have been filled with sadness And the man who committed that sin should be put out of your group,Kidza ambwa munadzionya Badala ya kurira nwi munadzionya Ye ariyehenda vizho be mwambozeni mara mwenga mo kanisani
I cannot be there with you in person but I am with you in spirit And I have already judged the man who did this I judged him the same as I would if I were really there,Mimi siko bule kuko ela ni hamwenga nanwi kiroho Na mut'u iye ariyehenda vizho nidzamuhukumu kare here niriye kuko
Come together in the name of our Lord Jesus I will be with you in spirit and you will have the power of our Lord Jesus with you,Wakathi mukithunganana kahi za dzina ra Bwana Jesu na roho yangu na nguvu za Bwana wehu Jesu zikikala hamwenga nanwi
Then turn this man over to Satan His sinful selfhas to be destroyed so that his spirit will be saved on the day when the Lord comes again,mulazheni mut'u iye kwa Shethani Hendani vizho ili mwiriwe unongwe ela rohoye ipate kuokolwa kahi za siku iyo ya Bwana Jesu
Your proud talk is not good You know the saying Just a little yeast makes the whole batch of dough rise,Kudzionya kwenu k'akufwaha bule Hedu k'amumanya kukala ts'ats'u ch'ach'e ni kuhendya unga munji ukakala ts'ats'u
Take out all the old yeast so that you will be a new batch of dough You really are bread without yeastPassover breadYes Christ our Passover Lambhas already been killed,H'aya bai mbozani ts'ats'u yosi mukale unga musha udziwovugwa bila ts'ats'u Na ni jeri kukala ninwi k'amuna ts'ats'u bule kwa kukala Masihi ariye nde ng'ondzi yehu ya P'asaka wambozwa sadaka akihutsusa
So let us eat our Passover meal but not with the bread that has the old yeast the yeast of sin and wrongdoing But let us eat the bread that has no yeast This is the bread of goodness and truth,Kwa vizho bai nafuuse P'asaka yehu na mikahe isiyo ts'ats'u mikahe ya moyo mutsuki na ujeri Fusiuse P'asaka yehu na mikahe yenye ts'ats'u ya kapindi mikahe ya dambi na uthiriri Hatha
I wrote to you in my letter that you should not associate with people who sin sexually,Ela vikara ut'u niriwokala ninamwambira ni uu kukala musigwirane na mut'u ariye ana dzina ra ndugu gonya ko ni muzindzi hedu anahendza kuhukana at'u hedu ni mwivi hedu ni murevi hedu ana kidzitso hedu anavoya vizuka Mut'u dza iye hatha kurya kwenye kidza musirye naye bule
But I did not mean the people of this world You would have to leave the world to get away from all the people who sin sexually or who are greedy and cheat each other or who worship idols,Si kazi yangu kuhukumu at'u mario ndze ya kanisa Mulungu mwenye andaahukumu Ela at'u murio kahi za kanisa mwenga ni kazi yenu kuahukumu Kwani Maoro ganaamba kukala Ye mut'u mui mwambozeni kahikahi zenu
I meant you must not associate with people who claim to be believers but continue to live in sin Dont even eat with a brother or sister who sins sexually is greedy worships idols abuses others with insults gets drunk or cheats people,Mumwenga wenu akikosana na ndugu mwandziwe naahirike maneno gago kwenu ninwi at'u a Mulungu Asithathe kugahirika kotini bule mana majaji a kuko k'amamumanya Mulungu
It is not my business to judge those who are not part of the group of believers God will judge them but you must judge those who are part of your group The Scriptures say Make the evil person leave your group,Hedu k'amumanya kukala at'u a Mulungu ndio mandiohukumu urumwengu H'aya kala mundahukumu urumwengu maut'u mathithe-mathithe gandamushinda
When one of you has something against someone else in your group why do you go to the judges in the law courts The way they think and live is wrong So why do you let them decide who is right Why dont you let Gods holy people decide who is right,Vidze k'amumanya kukala sino at'u a Mulungu fundahukumu hatha malaika H'aya be kala vizho funazhadima ni kushindwa ni maut'u ga maisha ga haha urumwenguni
Dont you know that Gods people will judge the world So if you will judge the world then surely you can judge small arguments like this,Ni kwanoni bai kala mut'u adzakosana na ndugu mwandziwe anahala go maneno anagahirika kwa at'u mario hatha ro kanisa k'ariamanya
You know that in the future we will judge angels So surely we can judge lifes ordinary problems,Ninamupiga chala cha uso ga Munamala muniambire kukala kahi zenu k'ahana mut'u mulachu hatha mumwenga adimaye kutosa maneno ga ndugu
So if you have such matters to be judged why do you take them to those who are not part of the church They mean nothing to you,Ela unadima kumona ndugu kamare anamuhirika ndugu mwandziwe kotini mbere za at'u masiomukuluhira Jesu
I say this to shame you Surely there is someone in your group wise enough to judge a complaint between two believers,Zho zha kukosana kare hatha muhirikane kotini vinanyesa kukala mudzashindwa kamare Hatha ni baha ukoserwe uwe hedu uhokwe vit'uzho
But now one believer goes to court against another and you let people who are not believers judge their case,Ela nwi vivi kare munaakosera at'u na kuahoka vit'u zhao Na maut'u gago munaahendera ndugu andziyenu
The lawsuits that you have against each other show that you are already defeated It would be better for you to let someone wrong you It would be better to let someone cheat you,Vidze k'amumanya kukala athiriri k'amandaupata uthawali wa Mulungu Musidzikenge bule kwani azindzi avoyi a vizuka alume malalanao
But you are the ones doing wrong and cheating And you do this to your own brothers and sisters in Christ,aivi enye kidzitso arevi at'u mahendzao kuhukana na ahoki aa osi k'amandaupata uthawali wa Mulungu
In the past some of you were like that But you were washed clean you were made holy and you were made right with God in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God,Angine kahi zenu were ndo murizho ela vivi mwageswa dambi zenu mukithengwa k'anda kwa kazi ya Mulungu na mukihendywa ahachi Vivi zhosi zhakala kukirira na dzina ra Bwana Jesu Masihi na kukirira na Roho wa Mulungu wehu
I am allowed to do anything you say My answer to this is that not all things are good Even if it is true that I am allowed to do anything I will not let anything control me like a slave,Unadima kunena ukaamba kukala Kwangu mimi kila kit'u ni karakara Ee ni jeri ela si zhosi vifwahazho Unaamba Kila kit'u kwangu ni karakara Ela mimi ts'endzi kuthawalwa ni kit'u chochosi
Someone else says Food is for the stomach and the stomach for food Yes and God will destroy them both But the body is not for sexual sin The body is for the Lord and the Lord is for the body,Unadima kuamba Chakurya ni cha ndani na ndani nayo ni ya chakurya Ee ni karakara ela Mulungu andavinonga-nonga zhosi viri Ela miri yehu si ya uzindzi ni ya Bwana na Bwana naye ni wa yo miri
And God will raise our bodies from death with the same power he used to raise the Lord Jesus,Here Mulungu arizhomufufula Bwana kwa nguvuze andahufufula hatha siswi naswi kwa nguvu zizo
Surely you know that your bodies are parts of Christ himself So I must never take what is part of Christ and join it to a prostitute,Vidze k'amumanya kukala miri yehu ni vilungo zha Masihi Bai nadimadze kuhala kilungo cha Masihi na kukihendya kilungo cha malaya Vizho k'azhadimikika bule
The Scriptures say The two people will become oneSo you should know that anyone who is joined with a prostitute becomes one with her in body,Hedu k'amumanya kukala mut'u akigwirana na malaya adzakala mwiri mumwenga naye Kwani Maoro ganaamba kukala Ao airi mandakala mwiri mumwenga
But anyone who is joined with the Lord is one with him in spirit,Ela mut'u akigwirana na Bwana nikukala kit'u kimwenga naye kahi za Roho
So run away from sexual sin It involves the body in a way that no other sin does So if you commit sexual sin you are sinning against your own body,Dzithengeni na uzindzi Dambi nyingine zihendwazo zosi nikukala zinahendwa ndze ya mwiri Ela mut'u azingaye nikukala anauhendera dambi mwiriwe mwenye
You should know that your body is a templefor the Holy Spirit that you received from God and that lives in you You dont own yourselves,Vidze k'amumanya kukala miri yenu ni hekalu ra ye Roho Mweri muriyegerwa ni Mulungu na anatoa ndani mwenu Ninwi k'amua ninwi enye bule mu a Mulungu
God paid a very high price to make you his So honor God with your body,Mulungu wamugula kwa bei ya gali kwa vizho yo miri yenu ihumireni kumup'a nguma iye
Now I will discuss the things you wrote me about You asked if it is better for a man not to have any sexual relations at all,Vikara dzulu ya garyahu maut'u murigogauza wakathi murihonandhikira ni vidzo mulume asimugut'e muche
But sexual sin is a danger so each man should enjoy his own wife and each woman should enjoy her own husband,Ela kwa ut'u wa maut'u ga uzindzi kila mulume niakale na muchewe na kila muche akale na mulumewe
The husband should give his wife what she deserves as his wife And the wife should give her husband what he deserves as her husband,Mulume naamuthoshezhe muchewe na ye muche naye amuthoshezhe mulumewe here mut'u na muchewe maviryazho kuhenda
The wife does not have power over her own body Her husband has the power over her body And the husband does not have power over his own body His wife has the power over his body,Kwani ye muche k'ana amuri dzulu za wo mwiriwe mwenye amuri nawo ni ye mulumewe Na ye mulume naye k'ana amuri dzulu za wo mwiriwe mwenye amuri nawo ni ye muchewe
Dont refuse to give your bodies to each other But you might both agree to stay away from sex for a while so that you can give your time to prayer Then come together again so that Satan will not be able to tempt you in your weakness,Musilashane bule isihokala mukale mudzasikizana Mana munadima kukala munamala mudzambozeze mumuvoye Mulungu kwa muda Ela gakigoma go mavoyo thu uyiranani kare p'ore mukashindwa ni kudzizulia na Shethani akapata nafasi ya kumujeza
I say this only to give you permission to be separated for a time It is not a rule,Vivi nidzizhonena be si kukala ninamboza amuri hatha bule nidzahenda kulazha ruhusa
I wish everyone could be like me But God has given each person a different ability He makes some able to live one way others to live a different way,Ninahendza kila mut'u akale dza zho nirizho mimi Ela k'azhadimikika mana kila mut'u ana kigerwa cha kwakwe cha kih'akeye arichogerwa ni Mulungu Yuno wagerwa kino na yuya akigerwa kirya
Now for those who are not married and for the widows I say this It is good for you to stay single like me,Bai kwa aryahu mario k'amana ache na aryahu mario ni magungu namala niambe vivi Ni vidzo kala mangathuwa kuishi vizho dza zho niishizho mimi
But if you cannot control your body then you should marry It is better to marry than to burn with sexual desire,Ela kala mut'u k'adima kudziunya naahale hedu ahalwe Kwani ni baha kuhala hedu kuhalwa kuriko kwalagwa ni hamu
Now I have a command for those who are married Actually it is not from me it is what the Lord commanded A wife should not leave her husband,Kwa at'u mariohalana ninamboza amuri kwenu Na amuri ii ni ya Bwana si yangu bule Muche asirichane na mulumewe bule
But if a wife does leave she should remain single or get back together with her husband And a husband should not divorce his wife,Na kala andamuricha asihalwe kaheri naathuwe kukala bila mulume hedu auyirane na mulumewe Mulume naye asimuriche muchewe bule
The advice I have for the others is from me The Lord did not give us any teaching about this If you have a wife who is not a believer you should not divorce her if she will continue to live with you,Na kwenu ninwi angine nyosi mimi ninamwamba vivi na ni mimi bai si Bwana bule Kala ndugu yoyosi ana muche ariye k'adzamuhokera Masihi na iye muche mwenye akale anahendza aenderere kuishi naye ndugu iye asimuriche bule
And if you have a husband who is not a believer you should not divorce him if he will continue to live with you,Na kala mwanamuche ariyemuhokera Masihi ana mulume ariye k'adzamuhokera na iye mulume mwenye akale anahendza aenderere kuishi naye dada iye asimuriche bule
The husband who is not a believer is set apart for God through his believing wife And the wife who is not a believer is set apart for God through her believing husband If this were not true your children would be unfit for Gods use But now they are set apart for him,Mana ye mulume asiyekuluhira nikuhendywa mueri kwa ut'u wa ye muchewe Na ye muche asiyekuluhira naye nikuhendywa mueri kwa ut'u wa ye mulumewe Na kala sozho be o ana ao mangakala ni akolo ela vino ni aeri
But if the husband or wife who is not a believer decides to leave let them leave When this happens the brother or sister in Christ is free God chose you to have a life of peace,Ela chamba ye mulume hedu ye muche asiyekuluhira anamala kurichana na ye muche hedu mulume akuluhiraye naamuriche Kwani kahi za k'esi dza iyo ye muche hedu mulume akuluhiraye a huru kumuricha ende ela kumbukirani kukala Mulungu wafwiha fuishi kahi za dheri
Wives maybe you will save your husband and husbands maybe you will save your wife You dont know now what will happen later,Kwani uwe muche hedu mulume uriyemukuluhira Jesu unadima hangine ukamuhendya mulumeo hedu mucheo akaokoka
But each one of you should continue to live the way the Lord God has given you to livethe way you were when God chose you I tell people in all the churches to follow this rule,Kila mut'u naaenderere kuishi here Mulungu arizhomupangira na here zho Mulungu arizhomwiha Na sheria ii ndo nifundishayo kahi za makanisa gosi
If a man was already circumcised when he was chosen he should not change his circumcision If a man was without circumcision when he was chosen he should not be circumcised,Chamba wakathi urihoifwa ni Mulungu were wangizwa lwembeni kare usihikehike bule kumala kufuta wo muvano wa lwembe Na kala wakathi urihoifwa ni Mulungu were k'udzangizwa lwembeni usendengizwa lwembeni bule
It is not important if anyone is circumcised or not What is important is obeying Gods commands,Kwani kwangizwa lwembeni hedu kutsangizwa lwembeni k'akuna mana yoyosi Chenye mana ni kuthuwa amuri za Mulungu
Each one of you should stay the way you were when God chose you,Kila mut'u naathuwe kukala zho arizhokala wakathi uwo arihoifwa ni Mulungu
If you were a slave when God chose you dont let that bother you But if you can be free then do it,Chamba wakathi urihoifwa were u mutumwa vizho visikubudzye bule Ela ukipata nafasi ya kukala huru ihumire
If you were a slave when the Lord chose you you are now free in the Lord You belong to the Lord In the same way if you were free when you were chosen you are now Christs slave,Kwani iye ariye wakathi arihokala anaifwa were ni mutumwa vivi be a huru kahi za Bwana Na iye ariye wakathi anaifwa were a huru vivi be adzakala mutumwa wa Masihi
God paid a high price for you so dont be slaves to anyone else,Mulungu wamugula kwa bei ya gali kwa vizho musikale atumwa a at'u bule
Brothers and sisters in your new life with God each one of you should continue the way you were when God chose you,Kwa vizho ndugu zangu kila mut'u naaenderere kukala kahi za yo hali ariyokala haho wakathi Mulungu arihomwihira
Now I write about people who are not marriedI have no command from the Lord about this but I give my opinion And I can be trusted because the Lord has given me mercy,Bai kuhusu athana mario k'amadzahala na asichana mario k'amadzahalwa Mimi sina amuri yoyosi kula kwa Bwana ela namboza maoni Maoni gaga ninagamboza kwa kukala kukirira kwa mbazi za Bwana ninakuluhirika
This is a time of trouble So I think it is good for you to stay the way you are,Kwa kukala uu ni wakathi wa thabu ni vidzo mut'u athuwe kukala zho arizho
If you have a wife dont try to get free from her If you are not married dont try to find a wife,Chamba una muchumba usimuriche bule Na ukikala k'una muchumba usimale kuhala bule
But if you decide to marry that is not a sin And it is not a sin for a girl who has never married to get married But those who marry will have trouble in this life and I want you to be free from this trouble,Ela ukihala k'uhendere dambi bule Hedu musichana akihalwa k'ahendere dambi Ela at'u enye ache na enye alume mana thabu zao na sikahendzere ninwi muzipate
Brothers and sisters this is what I mean We dont have much time left So starting now those who have wives should be the same as those who dont,Ndugu zangu nikinena vivi ninaamba kukala wo muda usereo be ni muchache Kwa vizho kula vivi be at'u enye ache namaishi here kwamba k'amahalire
It should not be important whether you are sad or whether you are happy If you buy something it should not matter to you that you own it,At'u marirao namakale here kwamba k'amarira bule At'u enye raha namakale here kwamba k'amana raha At'u magulao vit'u namakale here kwamba k'amana kit'u
You should use the things of the world without letting them become important to you This is how you should live because this world the way it is now will soon be gone,Na at'u mauhumirao urumwengu uu namakale here kwamba k'amana shuhuli nawo Kwani urumwengu uu unakira
I want you to be free from worry A man who is not married is busy with the Lords work He is trying to please the Lord,Ts'endzi mubudzyike bule Mut'u mudhaka kaziye ni kuaza dzulu za maut'u ga Bwana yani viryahu andizhomufwahiza iye
But a man who is married is busy with things of the world He is trying to please his wife,Mut'u ariyehala kaziye ni kuaza maut'u ga haha urumwenguni namuna andizhomufwahiza muchewe
He must think about two thingspleasing his wife and pleasing the Lord A woman who is not married or a girl who has never married is busy with the Lords work She wants to give herself fullybody and spiritto the Lord But a married woman is busy with things of the world She is trying to please her husband,Kwa ut'u uwo maazo ga mut'u mwenye muche ga kwiri-kwiri Musichana naye hedu mwanamuche ariye k'ana mulume kaziye ni kuaza dzulu za maut'u ga Bwana yani andizhotsundza mwiriwe hamwenga na rohoye ili zhosi vikale vieri Ela muche ariyehalwa ye kaziye ni kuaza dzulu za maut'u ga urumwengu uu yani andizhomufwahiza mulumewe
I am saying this to help you I am not trying to limit you but I want you to live in the right way And I want you to give yourselves fully to the Lord without giving your time to other things,Nikinena vivi be si kuamba ninamuikira mizizo minji hatha Ninanena maut'u gaga gosi kwa faidha yenu ninwi Ninamala kukala muhende kila kit'u kwa ngira mbidzo na mudzambozeze kamare-kamare kahi za kazi ya Bwana bila kikwazo chochosi
A man might think that he is not doing the right thing with his fiancée She might be almost past the best age to marrySo he might feel that he should marry her He should do what he wants It is no sin for them to get married,Kala mut'u analola na aone kukala ni baha amuhale ye musichanawe kwa kukala anathumika na akienderera kumutoeja andakala anamukosera naahende here ahendzazho Naamuhale mana akihenda vizho andakala k'ahendere dambi
But another man might be more sure in his mind There may be no need for marriage so he is free to do what he wants If he has decided in his own heart not to marry his fiancée he is doing the right thing,Ela mut'u akikala analola gonya kwa kuhendza mwenye atose moyoni mwakwe bila kulazimishwa ni mut'u kukala ye musichanawe k'andamuhala iye naye andakala anahenda ut'u udzo
So the man who marries his fiancée does right and the man who does not marry does better,Kwa vizho iye amuhalaye ye muchumbawe anahendat'o na iye ariye k'andamuhala naye anahendat'o zaidhi
A woman should stay with her husband as long as he lives But if the husband dies the woman is free to marry any man she wants but he should belong to the Lord,Mwanamuche ariyehalwa k'ana ruhusa ya kuhalwa kaheri na kuno mulumewe achere moyo Ela ye mulumewe akifwa a huru kuhalwa ni mut'u yoyosi amuhendzaye bora thu vihendeke kahi za Bwana
The woman is happier if she does not marry again This is my opinion and I believe that I have Gods Spirit,Ela kahi za maoni gangu ninaona kukala ni baha akale vizho bila kuhalwa Na mimi ninenaye vivi ninaona nina Roho wa Mulungu nami
Now I will write about meat that is sacrificedto idols It is certainly true that we all have knowledge as you say But this knowledge only fills people with pride It is love that helps the church grow stronger,Kahi za yo baruwa yenu mwanuza dzulu za nyama zimbozerwazo vizuka Vikara funamanya kukala hosini funa ujuzi na kumanya kuku furiko nako nikumuhendya mut'u akadzikulula Ela mahendzo ni kuajenga angine
Those who think they know something do not yet know anything as they should,Mut'u adzionaye kukala anamanya kit'u be naamanye kukala k'adzamanya bule here zho aviryazho kumanya
But whoever loves God is known by God,Ela mut'u akikala anamuhendza Mulungu Mulungu naye anamumanya
So this is what I say about eating meat We know that an idol is really nothing in the world and we know that there is only one God,Bai kuhusu kurya nyama zidzizombozerwa vizuka Siswi hunamanya kukala kizuka si kit'u kahi za urumwengu Kidza hunamanya kukala kuna Mulungu mumwenga thu here muambazho
Its really not important if there are things called gods in heaven or on earthand there are many of these gods and lords out there,Hatha kala ambwe kuna milungu minji yenye na mabwana anji enye kuko mulunguni na haha ts'i
For us there is only one God and he is our Father All things came from him and we live for him And there is only one Lord Jesus Christ All things were made through him and we also have life through him,siswi funamanya kukala kuna Mulungu mumwenga h'akeye Iye nde Baba ariyeumba vit'u zhosi Siswi funaishi kwa ut'u wa iye Kidza huna Bwana mumwenga thu Jesu Masihi Na kukirira kwakwe iye Mulungu waumba vit'u zhosi na siswi funaishi kukirira kwa iye Jesu Masihi
But not all people know this Some have had the habit of worshiping idols So now when they eat meat they still feel as if it belongs to an idol They are not sure that it is right to eat this meat So when they eat it they feel guilty,Ela si osi mavimanyao kwa kukala at'u angine madzazowera vizuka zhomu hatha makirya nyama zidzizombozerwa vizuka manaona manarya nyama za vizuka jeri Myoyo yao ya ndani ni minyonge na maryaho nyama dza zizi nikudzisikira kukala madzadzangiza nyenye
But food will not bring us closer to God Refusing to eat does not make us less pleasing to God and eating does not make us closer to him,K'ahudima kumufwahiza Mulungu kwa cho chakurya huryacho Kwa vizho fukirya k'ahuna fwangezacho na fukatsarya k'ahuna fuhunguzacho
But be careful with your freedom Your freedom to eat anything may make those who have doubts about what they can eat fall into sin,Ela uhuru uwo ni hatha muumanyirire sana p'ore mukaahendya o at'u mario ni anyonge kahi za kuluhiro rao makangira dambini
You understand that its all right to eat anything so you can eat even in an idols temple But someone who has doubts might see you eating there and this might encourage them to eat meat sacrificed to idols too But they really think it is wrong,Kwani aryahu anyonge makikona uwe uvimanyaye unarya chakurya kahi za Hekalu ra kizuka manadima kuthuwiriza Na makihenda vizho mandakala madzakwenda kinyume na mioyo yao
So this weak brother or sistersomeone Christ died foris lost because of your better understanding,Kwa vizho yuyu ndugu munyonge ariye Masihi wamufwerera andangamika kwa sababu ya kumanyako uwe
When you sin against your brothers and sisters in Christ in this way and you hurt them by causing them to do things they feel are wrong you are also sinning against Christ,Nanwi mukihenda vizho mundakala mudzaahendera dambi ndugu zenu kwa kuahendya mahende ut'u uriwo kwao ni makosa Na kwa kuahendera dambi ndugu zenu mundakala mudzamuhendera dambi Masihi
So if the food I eat makes another believer fall into sin I will never eat meat again I will stop eating meat so that I will not make my brother or sister sin,Kwa vizho bai kala kurya kwangu mimi kunadima kumuhendya ndugu yangu agwe ni baha nikatsarya nyama kamare kuriko kumuhendya ndugu yangu agwe
I am a free man I am an apostle I have seen Jesus our Lord You people are an example of my work in the Lord,Ninaamba mino si huru bule Hedu mino si muhumwi bule Vidze mino simonere Bwana wehu Jesu Hedu nwi k'amumuhokerere Bwana kwa kazi yangu mimi
Others may not accept me as an apostle but surely you do You are proof that I am an apostle in the Lord,Hatha kala at'u angine k'amanona kukala ni muhumwi ela kwenu ninwi mimi ni muhumwi Ninwi mu ushahidhi wangu kukala mimi ni muhumwi wa Bwana
Some people want to judge me So this is the answer I give them,Bai riri ndo jibu rangu kwa aryahu mario mananuza-nuza maswali
We have the right to eat and drink dont we,Vidze sino k'ahuna hachi ya kurya na kunwa kula kwa yo kazi huhendayo
We have the right to bring a believing wife with us when we travel dont we The other apostles and the Lords brothers and Peter all do this,Vidze k'ahuna hachi ya kwenda na ache ehu here mahendazho ahumwi angine na nduguze Bwana na K'efa
And are Barnabas and I the only ones who must work to earn our living,Hedu mino na Barinaba h'akiyehu ndiswi huviryao kuhenda kazi na mikono yehu ili fupate kurya na kuvala
No soldier ever serves in the army and pays his own salary No one ever plants a vineyard without eating some of the grapes himself No one takes care of a flock of sheep without drinking some of the milk himself,Ni shikari hiye adimaye kwenda vihani kwa garamaze mwenye Hedu ni h'ani adimaye kulaya mizabibu gonya akakosa kurya matundage Hedu ni h'ani adimaye kufuga gonya akakosa kunwa mazia ga ro badhire
These arent just my own thoughts Gods law says the same thing,Vidze gano ninenago nikale ninaganena na akili za kibinadamu Samba yo sheria kidza ndo iambazho
Yes it is written in the Law of Moses When a work animal is being used to separate grain dont keep it from eating the grainWhen God said this was he thinking only about work animals No,Kwani kahi za Sheria ya Musa zhaorwa kukala Kala ng'ombe inakut'a ngano usiifunge mulomo bule Vidze ye Mulungu were ananena dzulu za ng'ombe
He was really talking about us Yes that was written for us The one who plows and the one who separates the grain should both expect to get some of the grain for their work,si dzulu zehu siswi Mulungu were ananena dzulu zehu siswi Na Maoro gago be fwandhikirwa siswi Mana mut'u arimaye na mut'u aguwaye osi nikukala mana th'amaa ya kupata muthalo kahi za go mavuno
We planted spiritual seed among you so we should be able to harvest from you some things for this life Surely that is not asking too much,Bai kala sino fwalaya mbeyu za maut'u ga kiroho kahi zenu vidze ni vii fukipata mavuno ga vit'u kula kwenu
Others have this right to get things from you So surely we have this right too But we dont use this right No we endure everything ourselves so that we will not stop anyone from obeying the Good News of Christ,Kala at'u angine mana hachi ya kupata muthalo wa vit'u kula kwenu h'e seze sino
Surely you know that those who work at the Temple get their food from the Temple And those who serve at the altar get part of what is offered at the altar,Vidze k'amumanya kukala aryahu at'u mahendao kazi kahi za Hekalu marya kula kahi za ro Hekalu H'e o at'u mahendao kazi ya kwamboza sadaka ho kijajani samba nikupata muthalo kahi za zo sadaka mino
It is the same with those who have the work of telling the Good News The Lord has commanded that those who tell the Good News should get their living from this work,Na kahi za ngira iyo vizho Bwana walagiza kukala ao mahubirio Uvoro Udzo nao marye na mavale kula kwa uwo Uvoro Udzo
But I have not used any of these rights and I am not trying to get anything from you That is not my purpose for writing this I would rather die than to have someone take away what for me is a great source of pride,Ela mimi sidzahumira hachi dza zizo bule Na hatha vivi kidza si kwamba ninandhika ili nipate hachi dza zizo Hatha ni baha nifwe kuriko nimurichire mut'u yoyosi anihoke hachi yangu ya kudzionyera
Its not my work of telling the Good News that gives me any reason to boast That is my dutysomething I must do If I dont tell people the Good News I am in real trouble,Kwani sina hachi ya kudzionya kwa ati ninahubiri Uvoro Udzo mana iyo ndo kazi niriyogwizwa niihende Nami nindagamanya mwenye chamba sindahubiri Uvoro Udzo
If I did it because it was my own choice I would deserve to be paid But I have no choice I must tell the Good News So I am only doing the duty that was given to me,Kwani kalaho kazi ii be ninaihenda kuhendza mwenye be nikatazamia kurifwa Ela kazi ii siihenda kuhendza ninaihenda kwa kukala naigwizwa niihende
So what do I get for doing it My reward is that when I tell people the Good News I can offer it to them for free and not use the rights that come with doing this work,Nami ninahakikisha kukala ninahubiri Uvoro Udzo bule bila kuhumira zo hachi niviryazo kuzipata kula kwa wo Uvoro Udzo Na uwo kare ndo mushahara wangu nipatao
I am free I belong to no other person but I make myself a slave to everyone I do this to help save as many people as I can,Idzaho mimi si mutumwa wa mut'u yoyosi nadzilazha nikale mutumwa wa kila mut'u ili kwamba nivuhe at'u anji zaidhi
To the Jews I became like a Jew so that I could help save Jews I myself am not ruled by the law but to those who are ruled by the law I became like someone who is ruled by the law I did this to help save those who are ruled by the law,Kwa Ayahudi nakala here Muyahudi ili niavuhe Ayahudi Na ingahokala mimi si ts'ini za sheria yao nakala here mut'u ariye ts'ini za sheria ili niavuhe at'u mario ts'ini za sheria
To those who are without the law I became like someone who is without the law I did this to help save those who are without the law But really I am not without Gods lawI am ruled by the law of Christ,Kwa aryahu mario k'amats'ini ya sheria ya Ayahudi nakala here mut'u ariye k'ats'ini ya sheria iyo ili kwamba niavuhe Na si kwamba mimi si ts'ini ya sheria ya Mulungu ela sheria ya Masihi ndo inithawalayo
To those who are weak I became weak so that I could help save them I have become all things to all people I did this so that I could save people in any way possible,Kwa at'u enye kuluhiro thithe nakala mut'u wa kuluhiro thithe ili kwamba niavuhe Kwa vizho nidzakala kila kit'u kwa kila at'u ili kwa kila ngira nidime kuathizha angine ao
I do all this to make the Good News known I do it so that I can share in the blessings of the Good News,Na vivi zhosi navihenda kwa ut'u wa wo Uvoro Udzo ili nikadime kupata muthalo wa zo barakaze hamwenga na at'u angine
You know that in a race all the runners run but only one runner gets the prize So run like that Run to win,Here mumanyazho kahi za mushindano wa malo at'u nikuuka malo anji enye ela ni mumwenga thu ndiye agerwaye zawadi Kwa vizho sitani ili mukadime kupata zawadi
All who compete in the games use strict training They do this so that they can win a prizeone that doesnt last But our prize is one that will last forever,Kila mut'u angiraye kahi za mashindano ga muzazigo wowosi ni hatha adziunye na maut'u manji Vizho zhosi manavihenda kwa kukala manamala mahokere zawadi za kunongeka ela sino zawadi yehu k'ainongeka bule
So I run like someone who has a goal I fight like a boxer who is hitting something not just the air,Kwa vizho bai mimi ninauka malo na mupango kulenga ko mwisho Ni here muzazigi wa ngumi atsuhaye ngumize kupiga mut'u si kupiga p'eho
It is my own body I fight to make it do what I want I do this so that I wont miss getting the prize myself after telling others about it,Ninadzizoweza kazi k'omu ili wo mwiri wangu niuthawale kamare p'ore nikauka na wo wa kuahubiri at'u gonya mino mwenye nikambozwa
Follow my example just as I follow the example of Christ,Niigani mimi dza zho nimuigazho Masihi
I praise you because you remember me in all things You follow closely the teachings I gave you,Ninamulika kwa kukala munanikumbukira kwa kila kit'u kidza garyahu maut'u nirigomufundisha munagagwira dza zho nirizhomufundisha mimi
But I want you to understand this The head of every man is Christ And the head of a woman is the manAnd the head of Christ is God,Ela ninamala mumanye kukala mulume nde kitswa cha muche na Masihi nde kitswa cha alume osi na Mulungu nde kitswa cha Masihi
Every man who prophesies or prays with his head covered brings shame to his head,Kila mulume avoyaye hedu ambozaye unabii kuno adzabiningiza kitswa anaaibisha kitswache
But every woman who prays or prophesies should have her head covered If her head is not covered she brings shame to her head Then she is the same as a woman who has her head shaved,Na kila muche avoyaye hedu kumboza unabii kuno k'adzibiningizire chochosi kitswani mwakwe anaaibisha kitswache Kwani kuko kutsadzibiningiza kithambaa cha kitswani be ni karakara na kupiga lukwachu
If a woman does not cover her head it is the same as cutting off all her hair But it is shameful for a woman to cut off her hair or to shave her head So she should cover her head,Kala mwanamuche k'andadzibiningiza kithambaa naatose nyere Ela kwa kukala kutosa nyere hedu kupiga lukwachu ni aibu naavale cho kithambaa
But a man should not cover his head because he is made like God and is Gods glory But woman is mans glory,Mulume k'avirya kudzibiningiza kithambaa cha kitswa kwa kukala iye ni muhalano na nguma ya Mulungu Ela muche ni nguma ya mulume
Man did not come from woman Woman came from man,Kwani mulume k'aumbirwe kula kwa muche bule ela ni muche nde ariyeumbwa kula kwa mulume
And man was not made for woman Woman was made for man,Kidza mulume k'aumbirwe kwa ut'u wa muche bule ela ni muche nde ariyeumbwa kwa ut'u wa mulume
So that is why a woman should have her head covered with something that shows she is under authorityAlso she should do this because of the angels,Ndosa muche anavirya adzibiningize kithambaa cha kitswa Uu ni muvano wa kunyesa wadimi Kidza ni ahende vizho kwa ut'u wa ao malaika
But in the Lord the woman needs the man and the man needs the woman,Ela hatha hamwenga na vizho kahi za Bwana muche anamutegemea mulume na mulume naye anamutegemea muche
This is true because woman came from man but also man is born from woman Really everything comes from God,Mana here dza viryahu muche arizhoumbwa kula kwa mulume mulume naye azhalwa ni ye muche Na vit'u zhosi vilaa kwa Mulungu
Decide this for yourselves Is it right for a woman to pray to God without something on her head,Vidze munaona ni karakara jeri mwanamuche avoye Mulungu bila kudzibiningiza kithambaa Viloleni ninwi
Even nature itself teaches you that wearing long hair is shameful for a man,Kwani hatha kulengana na zho mudamu arizhoumbwa kidza munadima kumanya kukala nyere nyire zinamubandira ishima mulume
But wearing long hair is a womans honor Long hair is given to the woman to cover her head,Ela nyere nyire kwa muche ni ut'u wa kunyeth'era Mana iye wajaliwa kukala na nyere zizo ili zimufinikire
Some people may still want to argue about this But we and the churches of God dont accept what those people are doing,Kala kuna mut'u achereye na k'anani nikahendza nimwambe kukala siswi hamwenga na go makanisa ga Mulungu k'afuna adha ringine bule
In the things I tell you now I dont praise you Your meetings hurt you more than they help you,Kahi za gaga malagizo nimalago kumup'a simulika bule Simulika kwa kukala mukithunganana k'amujenga bule hatha nikukala munavomola
First I hear that when you meet together as a church you are divided And this is not hard to believe,Kwandza kamare ninasikira kukala muthungananaho here kanisa k'amuna umwenga bule munagazhana vikundi-vikundi Na vivi nazhona here ni jeri
because of your idea that you must have separate groups to show who the real believers are,Kwani suthi kukale na kugazhana kahi zenu ili aryahu mario manahenda zho virizho ni karakara maoneke lwazu
When you all come together it is not really the Lords Supperyou are eating,Mukithunganana munaamba munarya chakurya cha Bwana ela cho muryacho si chakurya cha Bwana bule
I say this because when you eat each one eats without waiting for the others Some people dont get enough to eat or drink while others have too much,Kwani wakathi wa kurya k'amugazhirana bule kila mumwenga anahala chakuryache mwenye arye Na vivi vinaahendya angine mauke na ndzala kuno angine o madzarea
You can eat and drink in your own homes It seems that you think Gods church is not important You embarrass those who are poor What can I say Should I praise you No I cannot praise you for this,Ii K'amuna kwenu bule nwi Ko k'amudima kurya na kunwa Hedu munamala kuvudhya kanisa ra Mulungu na kuaaibisha aryahu masio kit'u H'aya kahi za go munahendza nimwambedze Vidze munahendza nimulike kwa gago Hatha sindamulika bule
The teaching I gave you is the same that I received from the Lord On the night when the Lord Jesus was handed over to be killed he took bread,Kwani gago maut'u nirigomufundisha ninwi be nagagerwa ni Bwana kukala usiku uwo ariwosalitiwa Bwana Jesu wahala mukahe
and gave thanks for it Then he divided the bread and said This is my body it is for you Eat this to remember me,na arihokala adzagonya kulazha muvera akiumogola-mogola akiamba Uu ndo mwiri wangu umbozwao kwa ut'u wenu kalani mukiurya kwa kunikumbukira mimi
In the same way after they ate Jesus took the cup of wine He said This cup represents the new agreement from God which begins with my blood sacrifice When you drink this do it to remember me,Na bada ya kurya chakurya akihala cho kikombe nacho akiamba Kikombe kiki ni kilagane kisha kiikwacho kwa milatso yangu Na kila munwaho kahi za kikombe kiki hendani vivi kwa kunikumbukira mimi
This means that every time you eat this bread and drink this cup you are telling others about the Lords death until he comes again,Bai kila wakathi muthungananaho na kurya mukahe uu na kunwa kikombe kiki nikukala munatangaza kifwa cha Bwana muhaka haho andihokudzirira
So if you eat the bread or drink the cup of the Lord in a way that does not fit its meaning you are sinning against the body and the blood of the Lord,Kwa ut'u uwo wenye bai mut'u yoyosi andiyerya mukahe hedu kunwa kikombe cha Bwana kahi za ngira isiyofwaha andakala adzauhendera dambi mwiri na milatso ya Bwana
Before you eat the bread and drink the cup you should examine your own attitude,Kwa vizho kabila mut'u kurya mukahe hedu kunwa kikombe cha Bwana ni hatha adzilole kwandza
If you eat and drink without paying attention to those who are the Lords body your eating and drinking will cause you to be judged guilty,Kwani mut'u yoyosi andiyerya mukahe wa Bwana na kunwa kikombe cha Bwana bila kwangiza manani wo mwiri andakala ni here anarya na kunwa hukumu ya Mulungu
That is why many in your group are sick and weak and many have died,Ndosa anji enu ni akongo na k'amana matsiya ga mwanya na angine mahenda kufwa kamare
But if we judged ourselves in the right way then God would not judge us,Ela fukidzilolat'o jeri Mulungu k'andafuhukumu bule
But when the Lord judges us he punishes us to show us the right way He does this so that we will not be condemned with the world,Bwana akifuhukumu na kufwangiza akili nikukala anavihenda vizho ili p'ore siswi fukahukumiwa hamwenga na urumwengu
So my brothers and sisters when you come together to eat wait for each other,Kwa vizho bai ndugu zangu muthungananaho hamwenga kwa ut'u wa kurya chakurya cha Bwana tharizanani
If some are too hungry to wait they should eat at home Do this so that your meeting together will not bring Gods judgment on you I will tell you what to do about the other things when I come,Na kala mut'u ana ndzala naaandze kurya ko kwao kwandza p'ore muthungananaho mukahukumiwa ni Mulungu
Now brothers and sisters I want you to understand about spiritual gifts,Vikara dzulu za vigerwa zha Roho Mweri ninahendza mumanye ndugu zangu
You remember the lives you lived before you were believers You let yourselves be influenced and led away to worship idolsthings that have no life,Ninwi enye munamanya kukala wakathi murihokala k'amudzamumanya Mulungu mwathawalwa ni vizuka vit'u visizhonena Vit'u vivi siku zosi zhamwangamiza ngira
So I tell you that no one who is speaking with the help of Gods Spirit says Jesus be cursed And no one can say Jesus is Lord without the help of the Holy Spirit,Vikara ninamala mumanye kukala mut'u alongozwaye ni Roho wa Mulungu k'adima kuamba Jesu naalaniwe bule Na k'akuna mut'u adimaye kuamba Jesu ni Bwana bila kulongozwa ni Roho Mweri
There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but they are all from the same Spirit,Bai kuna vigerwa namuna nyinji ela vigerwa vivi zhosi vilazhwa ni iye Roho mumwenga
There are different ways to serve but we serve the same Lord,Kidza kuna namuna nyinji za uhumiki ela ye Bwana ahumikirwaye ni mumwenga
And there are different ways that God works in people but it is the same God who works in all of us to do everything,Na kuna namuna nyinji za kuhenda kazi ela zo nguvu za kuhendera kazi zizo zosi hosi fugerwa ni iye Mulungu mumwenga
Something from the Spirit can be seen in each person The Spirit gives this to each one to help others,Kila mumwenga anaonekana kukala ana nguvu fulani za Roho Mweri na nguvu zizi zosi zalazhwa kwa faidha ya at'u osi
The Spirit gives one person the ability to speak with wisdom And the same Spirit gives another person the ability to speak with knowledge,Iye Roho mumwenga anadima kumup'a mut'u mumwenga neno ra ulachu na mungine neno ra kumanya
The same Spirit gives faith to one person and to another he gives gifts of healing,Iye Roho mumwenga anadima kumup'a mut'u kigerwa cha kuluhiro na mungine akamup'a vigerwa zha kuhoza
The Spirit gives to one person the power to do miracles to another the ability to prophesy and to another the ability to judge what is from the Spirit and what is not The Spirit gives one person the ability to speak in different kinds of languages and to another the ability to interpret those languages,Yuno akamup'a nguvu za kuhenda miujiza yuya akamup'a kigerwa cha kumboza unabii Yuno akamup'a wadimi wa kutofautisha zha Roho na virizho si zha Roho yuya akamup'a wadimi wa kunena na luga na mungine akamup'a wadimi wa kutafusiri zo luga
One Spirit the same Spirit does all these things The Spirit decides what to give each one,Na nguvu zizi zosi zilazhwa ni ye Roho mumwenga Iye nde agazhiraye at'u vigerwa here ahendzazho mwenye
A person has only one body but it has many parts Yes there are many parts but all those parts are still just one body Christ is like that too,Kwani mwiri wa mudamu ni mumwenga ela una vilungo vinji Na ingahokala vilungo vizho ni vinji zhosi ni vilungo zha wo mwiri mumwenga Na vizho ndo mwiri wa Masihi urizho
Some of us are Jews and some of us are not some of us are slaves and some of us are free But we were all baptized to become one body through one Spirit And we were all giventhe one Spirit,Mana siswi hosi fwabat'izwa kwa Roho mumwenga kahi za mwiri mumwenga Siswi hosi fwahokera Roho mumwenga fukakala Ayahudi hedu at'u mario si Ayahudi fukakala atumwa hedu fukakala fu huru
And a persons body has more than one part It has many parts,Kwani mwiri wa mudamu k'auna kilungo kimwenga bule una vilungo vinji
The foot might say I am not a hand so I dont belong to the body But saying this would not stop the foot from being a part of the body,Kigulu kikiamba kukala Mimi si mukono kwa vizho si kilungo cha mwiri bule Vizho k'avidima kukihendya kikale ndze ya wo mwiri
The ear might say I am not an eye so I dont belong to the body But saying this would not make the ear stop being a part of the body,Hedu sikiro rikiamba kukala Kwa kukala mimi si dzitso si kilungo cha mwiri bule Vizho k'avidima kurihendya rikale ndze ya wo mwiri
If the whole body were an eye it would not be able to hear If the whole body were an ear it would not be able to smell anything,Kala wo mwiri wosini ni dzitso huhu at'u mangadimadze kusikira Na kala mwiri wosini be ni sikiro huhu at'u mangadimadze kunusa
So there are many parts but only one body,Bai here virizho vilungo ni vinji ela mwiri ni mumwenga
The eye cannot say to the hand I dont need you And the head cannot say to the foot I dont need you,Dzitso k'aridima kuwambira mukono Sina kazi nawe Kitswa nacho k'akidima kugambira magulu Sina kazi nanwi
No those parts of the body that seem to be weaker are actually very important,Hatha bule Kwandza mosi zho vilungo huzhonazho here kwamba ni vinyonge na k'avina mana sana be ndo zhenye mana kukira zhosi na k'afudima kuishi bila vizho
And the parts that we think are not worth very much are the parts we give the most care to And we give special care to the parts of the body that we dont want to show,Viryahu vilungo huzhonazho kukala k'avina ishima na vi vii-vii ndo huvip'azho ishima bomu na kuvifinikira zaidhi
The more beautiful parts dont need this special care But God put the body together and gave more honor to the parts that need it,Na zho vilungo huzhonazho kukala vinafwahiza k'avimala mapambo dza gago bule Ela Mulungu mwenye waugwizanya vizho wo mwiri kukala viryahu vilungo virizho vinaonewa ni zha ts'ini vigerwe ishima bomu zaidhi
God did this so that our body would not be divided God wanted the different parts to care the same for each other,Na vivi wavihenda ili wo mwiri usigazhikane bule ela vilungo zhosi vitsundzane t'ot'ot'o
If one part of the body suffers then all the other parts suffer with it Or if one part is honored then all the other parts share its honor,Kilungo kimwenga kikikala kinalumwa vilungo zhosi nikulumwa hamwenga nacho Na kilungo kimwenga kikilikwa vilungo zhosi nikufwahirwa hamwenga nacho
All of you together are the body of Christ Each one of you is a part of that body,Bai ninwi nyosi hamwenga mu mwiri wa Masihi na kila mumwenga wenu ni kilungo kahi za mwiri uwo
And in the church God has given a place first to apostles second to prophets and third to teachers Then God has given a place to those who do miracles those who have gifts of healing those who can help others those who are able to lead and those who can speak in different kinds of languages,Na Mulungu watsagula at'u na akiap'a kazi ya kuhenda kahi za kanisa A kwandza ni ahumwi a hiri ni manabii na a hahu ni alimu At'u aa madzathuwirizwa ni enye vigerwa zha kuhenda miujiza kuhoza makongo kuaviza at'u ulongozi na kunena na luga
Not all are apostles Not all are prophets Not all are teachers Not all do miracles,Vidze at'u osi manadima kukala ahumwi hedu manabii Vidze at'u osi manadima kukala alimu hedu ahendi a miujiza
Not all have gifts of healing Not all speak in different kinds of languages Not all interpret those languages,Vidze ni at'u osi mario na vigerwa zha kuhoza Hedu kunena na luga Vidze ni at'u osi madimao kufasiri luga
Continue to give your attention to the spiritual gifts you consider to be the greatest But now I want to point out a way of life that is even greater,Ela thamanini kupata vigerwa zha mana zaidhi Vikara hurizani nimwanyese ngira mbidzo zaidhi
I may speak in different languages whether human or even of angels But if I dont have love I am only a noisy bell or a ringing cymbal,Hatha nikanena luga za anadamu na za malaika ela chamba sina mahendzo nindakala here debe huhu rivumaro hedu ndzuga
I may have the gift of prophecy I may understand all secrets and know everything there is to know and I may have faith so great that I can move mountains But even with all this if I dont have love I am nothing,Hatha nikakala nina kigerwa cha kumboza unabii na cha kuelewa siri zosi na kumanya kosi Hedu nikakala na kuluhiro bomu ra kudima kuambira mirima iuke na ikauka ela sina mahendzo si kit'u bule
I may give away everything I have to help others and I may even give my body as an offering to be burned But I gain nothing by doing all this if I dont have love,Nadima kulazha vit'u zhangu zhosi na nikalazha mwiri wangu uochweela chamba sina mahendzo k'avinifwaha kit'u
Love is patient and kind Love is not jealous it does not brag and it is not proud,Mahendzo nikumuhendya mut'u akavumirira kidza akakala na mbazi Mut'u mwenye mahendzo k'adima kuonera wivu mwandziwe hedu kudzionya
Love is not rude it is not selfish and it cannot be made angry easily Love does not remember wrongs done against it,Mut'u mwenye mahendzo nikukala na t'abia mbidzo k'atengeza maut'u ga kumufwaha iye mwenye h'akeye Mut'u mwenye mahendzo k'ana k'oro za hehi hedu kuhala maut'u mai arigohenderwa kugaika moyoni
Love is never happy when others do wrong but it is always happy with the truth,Mut'u mwenye mahendzo k'afwahirwa dzulu za makosa ela ni kufwahirwa dzulu za ujeri
Love never gives up on people It never stops trusting never loses hope and never quits,Mut'u mwenye mahendzo k'athinya mikono bule siku zosi anakuluhira na k'agomwa ni th'amaa bule Iye nikuvumirira maut'u gosi
Love will never end But all those gifts will come to an endeven the gift of prophecy the gift of speaking in different kinds of languages and the gift of knowledge,Mahendzo k'agana mwisho bule ela vigerwa zhosi vina mwisho Hariho unabii kunena na luga hedu hatha elimu zhosi vindakira
These will all end because this knowledge and these prophecies we have are not complete,Kwani wo unabii hamwenga na yo elimu yehu zhosi ni vit'u virizho k'avikamili bule
But when perfection comes the things that are not complete will end,Ela zho virizho kamili vikidza zho virizho k'avikamili vindakira
When I was a child I talked like a child I thought like a child and I made plans like a child When I became a man I stopped those childish ways,Nirihokala ni muhoho maneno gangu maazo gangu na maoni gangu gosi were ni ga kihoho Ela nirihokala mut'u muzima maut'u gosi ga kihoho nagaricha
It is the same with us Now we see God as if we are looking at a reflection in a mirror But then in the future we will see him right before our eyes Now I know only a part but at that time I will know fully as God has known me,Wakathi uu furiwo funaona wiriwiri here at'u malolao kiloloni Ela wakathi uwo hundaona uso kwa uso Vivi ninamanya vichache thu ela wakathi uwo nindamanya kamare dza zho Mulungu animanyazho mimi
So these three things continue faith hope and love And the greatest of these is love,Bai vivi gadumugo ni kuluhiro na th'amaa na mahendzo Ela kahi za gaga mahahu ririro bomu zaidhi ni mahendzo
Love should be the goal of your life but you should also want to have the gifts that come from the Spirit And the gift you should want most is to be able to prophesy,Bai sitani zhomu kwamba mukale na mahendzo Kidza malani kwa chadi kukala mupate vigerwa zha Roho na zaidhi sana kigerwa kiryahu cha unabii
I will explain why Those who have the gift of speaking in a different language are not speaking to people They are speaking to God No one understands themthey are speaking secret things through the Spirit,Kwani mut'u anenaye na luga kahi za Roho nikukala ananena na Mulungu k'anena na at'u bule K'akuna mut'u adimaye kumuelewa mut'u dza iye Iye nikwangizwa nguvu ni Roho na akanena maut'u ga siri
But those who prophesy are speaking to people They help people grow stronger in faith and they give encouragement and comfort,Ela mut'u ambozaye unabii nikuajenga andziye na kuangiza moyo na kuafariji
Those who speak in a different language are helping only themselves But those who prophesy are helping the whole church,Mut'u anenaye na luga nikukala anadzijenga mwenye ela mut'u ambozaye unabii nikukala anajenga kanisa zima
I would like all of you to have the gift of speaking in different languages But what I want more is for you to prophesy Anyone who prophesies is more important than those who can only speak in different languages However if they can also interpret those languages they are as important as the one who prophesies If they can interpret then the church can be helped by what they say,Vikara ninahendza kila mumwenga wenu anene na luga ela zaidhi ningahendza nyosi mukale na kigerwa cha kumboza unabii Kwani iye ambozaye unabii ana mana zaidhi kukira ye anenaye na luga Hatha simanya atafusiri bai ili kanisa rosi ripate kujengwa
Brothers and sisters will it help you if I come to you speaking in different languages No it will help you only if I bring you a new truth or some knowledge prophecy or teaching,Ndugu zangu nafuambe nidze ko kwenu gonya nidze ninene na luga musizozielewa kundakala kuna faidha yani kwenu Ela nikikala nadima kumugunulira hedu nikamumanyisa hedu nikamwambozera unabii hedu nikamufundisha mundapata faidha
This is true even with lifeless things that make soundslike a flute or a harp If the different musical notes are not made clear you cant understand what song is being played Each note must be played clearly for you to be able to understand the tune,H'aya halani mufano wa kivoti na kinubi vit'u virizho k'avisoha ela vinamboza miriro Mut'u akipiga kivoti hedu kinubi na amboze muriro mumwenga thuthuthu undamanyadze kala anapiga wira wani
And in a war if the trumpet does not sound clearly the soldiers will not know it is time to prepare for fighting,H'e kala mut'u anapiga k'ululu kuambira at'u magwire maha gonya akale k'andavihendat'o hatha at'u makavisikira o at'u mandagwiradze maha bila kumanya madzaambwadze
It is the same with you If you dont speak clearly in a language people know they cannot understand what you are saying You will be talking to the air,Na vizho ndo virizho hatha kwenu ninwi Mut'u ukinena na andziyo kahi za luga masizozielewa go manenogo gandakwenda na p'eho
It is true that there are many different languages in the world and they all have meaning,Vinadimika kukala kuna luga nyinji sana kahi za urumwengu uu na kahi za zizo zosi k'ahana hatha mwenga iriyo k'aina mana
But if I dont understand the meaning of what someone is saying it will just be strange sounds to me and I will sound just as strange to them,Ela nikikala yo luga inenwayo mino siimanya ye ainenaye nikukala kwangu ni mukidhyomo na mimi nami ni mukidhyomo kwakwe iye
Thats why you who want spiritual gifts so much should prefer those gifts that help the church grow stronger,Na vizho ndo virizho kwenu ninwi Bai kwa kukala muna hamu ya kupata vigerwa zha Roho jezani zhomu mupate viryahu vidimazho kujenga kanisa rosi
So those who have the gift of speaking in a different language should pray that they can also interpret what they say,Kwa vizho bai iye anenaye na luga isiyomanyikana naavoye apate nguvu za kutafusiri
If I pray in a different language my spirit is praying but my mind does nothing,Kwani nikivoya na luga roho yangu ndo ivoyayo ela akili yangu nikukala k'aiho bule
So what should I do I will pray with my spirit but I will also pray with my mind I will sing with my spirit but I will also sing with my mind,Vikara hatha nihendadze be mut'u mino Ra kuhenda ni riri nindavoya na roho ela kidza wakathi mungine nivoye na akili Nindaimba na roho ela kidza wakathi mungine niimbe na akili
You might be praising God with your spirit But someone there without understanding cannot say Amen to your prayer of thanks because they dont know what you are saying,Nahuambe unamboza muvera kwa Mulungu be uumboze kahi za luga isiyoeleweka mwandziyo asiyeelewa andaambadze H'aami kwa wo muverao udziwolazha kala k'amanya unaambadze
You may be thanking God in a good way but others are not helped,Hatha kala go mavoyogo kahi za wo muvera ni madzo dza dze kidza ye mwandziyo k'andafaidhi chochosi
I thank God that my gift of speaking in different kinds of languages is greater than any of yours,Nina muvera na Mulungu kwa kukala ninanena na luga kumukira ninwi nyosi
But in the church meetings I would rather speak five words that I understand than thousands of words in a different language I would rather speak with my understanding so that I can teach others,Ela kala ni kahi za kanisa ni baha ninene maneno matsano gaelewekago nifundishe angine kuriko magana na magana ga maneno kahi za luga isiyoeleweka
Brothers and sisters dont think like children In evil things be like babies but in your thinking you should be like fullgrown adults,Ndugu zangu musikale na akili za kihoho bule Kalani ana atsanga kahi za uthiriri ela mukale na akili za kiut'u uzima
And from this we see that the use of different languages shows how God deals with those who dont believe not with those who believe And prophecy shows how God works through those who believe not through unbelievers,Kwa vizho bai kigerwa cha kunena na luga si muvano bule kwa at'u makuluhirao ela ni muvano kwa at'u masiokuluhira Ela kigerwa cha kumboza unabii ni muvano kwa aryahu makuluhirao si muvano kwa at'u masiokuluhira
Suppose the whole church meets together and you all speak in different languages If some people come in who are without understanding or dont believe they will say you are crazy,Nahuambe mudzathunganana kanisa zima na kila mut'u anene na luga gonya hadze at'u masioelewa hedu masiokuluhira Vidze k'amandaamba muna vilalu
But suppose you are all prophesying and someone comes in who does not believe or who is without understanding Their sin will be shown to them and they will be judged by everything you say,Ela ninwi nyosi mukikala munamboza unabii gonya mut'u asiyekuluhira hedu asiyeelewa adze akisikira go maneno genu nyosi mundahendya dambize ziikwe lwazu na asikire hukumu
The secret things in their heart will be made known So they will bow down and worship God They will say Without a doubt God is here with you,Andasikira siri zosi kahi za moyo wa kwakwe zinanenwa lwazu naye andadzigwaga amuvoye Mulungu na anene mwenye aambe Dzamanya Mulungu a hamwenga nanwi jeri
So brothers and sisters what should you do When you meet together one person has a song another has a teaching and another has a new truth from God One person speaks in a different language and another interprets that language The purpose of whatever you do should be to help everyone grow stronger in faith,Ndugu zangu ut'u nimalao kunena ni uu Mukithunganana hamwenga kumuvoya Mulungu na mut'u mumwenga amboze wira mungine amboze mafundisho mungine amboze ugunulo kula kwa Mulungu mungine anene na luga na mungine amboze tafusiri ya kwakwe zhosi vihendeni kwa ut'u wa kurijenga ro kanisa
When you meet together if anyone speaks to the group in a different language it should be only two or no more than three people who do this And they should speak one after the other And someone else should interpret what they say,Kala kundakala na kunena na luga namanene at'u airi na makizidhi sana ahahu Na at'u ao masinene kwa wakathi mumwenga bule namanene mumwenga-mumwenga na mut'u mumwenga amboze tafusiri ya go gadzigonenwa
But if there is no interpreter then anyone who speaks in a different language should be quiet in the church meeting They should speak only to themselves and to God,Ela kala k'ahana mut'u wa kumboza tafusiri ye muneni wa luga naanyamale kamare kahi za ro kanisa naakanene h'akeye iye na Mulunguwe
And only two or three prophets should speak The others should judge what they say,Ambozi a unabii nao namamboze airi hedu ahahu kuno angine o makale manapima go maneno gao
And if a message from God comes to someone who is sitting the first speaker should be quiet,Kala mut'u ananena gonya mut'u mungine ariye akelesi ahokere ugunulo kula kwa Mulungu ye anenaye naanyamale kwandza asirikizwe iye adziyehokera ugunulo
You can all prophesy one after the other This way everyone can be taught and encouraged,Kwa ngira ii ninwi nyosi munadima kumboza unabii mumwenga-mumwenga na nyosi mukafundishwa na mukangizwa nguvu
The spirits of prophets are under the control of the prophets themselves,Roho za manabii zithawalwa ni manabii enye
God is not a God of confusion but a God of peace This is the rule for all the meetings of Gods people,kwani Mulungu ni Mulungu wa dheri si Mulungu wa fujo
The women should keep quiet in these church meetings They are not allowed to speak out but should be under authority as the Law of Moses says,ache namanyamale kahi za kanisa K'amana ruhusa ya kunena bule ao namakale at'u a kutii here sheria iambazho
If there is something they want to know they should ask their own husbands at home It is shameful for a woman to speak up like that in the church meeting,Makikala mana ut'u wa kuuza namakaauze alume ao midzini kwao Kwani ni aibu muche kunena mbere za kanisa
Gods teaching did not come from you and you are not the only ones who have received it,Vidze munaona rino neno ra Mulungu rambola ko kwenu Hedu munaona kukala ndinwi ririromufikira h'akiyenu
If you think you are a prophet or that you have a spiritual gift you should understand that what I am writing to you is the Lords command,Chamba hana mut'u yoyosi adzionaye kukala ni nabii hedu adzionaye kukala ana Roho be naamanye kamare kukala gaga nigaorago be ni amuri kula kwa Mulungu
If you do not accept this you will not be accepted,Na kala gaga nigaorago be hana mut'u yoyosi ariye k'andagaona kit'u iye naye k'andaonewa kit'u
So my brothers and sisters continue to give your attention to prophesying And dont stop anyone from using the gift of speaking in different languages,Kwa vizho bai ndugu zangu malani zhomu mukale na kigerwa cha kumboza unabii ela kunena na luga nako musikukahaze bule
But everything should be done in a way that is right and orderly,Ela kila kit'u nakihendwe kwa mupango na kwa ngira mbidzo
Now brothers and sisters I want you to remember the Good News I told you You received that Good News message and you continue to base your life on it,Vikara ndugu zangu ninamala nimukumbukize dzulu za uryahu Uvoro Udzo niriwokudzamuhubiri na mukiuhokera na hatha vivi muchere kuima kahi za uwo
That Good News the message you heard from me is Gods way to save you But you must continue believing it If you dont you believed for nothing,Kukirira na uwo Uvoro Udzo niriwouhubiri ninwi munaokolwa kala mundaugwira kuwunya ela kala k'amundaugwira kukuluhira kwenu k'akuna mana yoyosi
I gave you the message that I received I told you the most important truths that Christ died for our sins as the Scriptures say,Kwani wo ut'u wa mana zaidhi niriwomurehera ninwi ni uwo niriwouhokera hatha mimi Ut'u uwo ni uryahu wa kukala Masihi wafwa kwa ut'u wa dambi zehu here Maoro gaambazho
that he was buried and was raised to life on the third day as the Scriptures say,na akizikwa na siku ya hahu akifufulwa here Maoro gaambazho
and that he appeared to Peter and then to the twelve apostles,Akimwambolera K'efa gonya akiambolera o kumi na airi
After that Christ appeared to more than 500 other believers at the same time Most of them are still living today but some have died,Badaye akiambolera kwa wakathi mumwenga zaidhi ya ndugu magana matsano Achache kahi za ndugu ao mafwa ela anji ao machere moyo
Then he appeared to James and later to all the apostles,Badaye kaheri akimwambolera Jakobu gonya akiambolera ahumwi osi
Last of all he appeared to me I was different like a baby born before the normal time,Mwisho kamare akinambolera mimi nami Kwambolerwa kwangu kwakala here kwa mwana ariye k'afikire
All the other apostles are greater than I am I say this because I persecuted the church of God That is why I am not even good enough to be called an apostle,Kwani kahi za ahumwi osi mimi ndimi muthithe wao Sifwaha hatha kuifwa muhumwi kwa kukala natesa kanisa ra Mulungu
But because of Gods grace that is what I am And his grace that he gave me was not wasted I worked harder than all the other apostles But I was not really the one working It was Gods grace that was with me,Ela kwa nema ya Mulungu nidzakala vivi nirizho Na nema iyo ariyonijalia k'aigwere hahuhu bule mana nahenda kazi kwa chadi kukira ahumwi angine osi Ela hatha hamwenga na vizho si mimi niihendaye yo kazi bule ela ni yo nema ya Mulungu iriyo hamwenga nami
So then it is not important if I told you Gods message or if it was the other apostles who told youwe all tell people the same message and this is what you believed,Ela kala ni ao ndo mahubirio hedu ni mimi vizho si kit'u Kit'u kibomu ni kukala vizho ndo fuhubirizho na vizho ndo murizhokuluhira
We tell everyone that Christ was raised from death So why do some of you say that people will not be raised from death,Vikara kala sino funamuhubiri Masihi kukala wafufulwa viandzadze kaheri kukala angine enu manaamba kukala k'akuna kufufulwa
If no one will ever be raised from death then Christ has never been raised,Kala k'akuna kufufulwa be vinanyesa kukala Masihi naye k'afufulirwe bule
And if Christ has never been raised then the message we tell is worth nothing And your faith is worth nothing,Na kala Masihi k'afufulirwe be ko kuhubiri kwehu hamwenga na ko kukuluhira kwenu k'akuna mana yoyosi
And we will also be guilty of lying about God because we have told people about him saying that he raised Christ from death And if no one is raised from death then God never raised Christ from death,Kidza kala k'akuna kufufulwa be siswi hunamboza ushahidhi wa ulongo dzulu za Mulungu Kwani fwaamba kukala wamufufula Masihi kudzi ye tha k'amufufulire bule
If those who have died are not raised then Christ has not been raised either,Mana kala k'akuna kufufulwa be Masihi naye k'afufulirwe bule
And if Christ has not been raised from death then your faith is for nothing you are still guilty of your sins,Na kala Masihi k'afufulirwe ninwi muchere kahi za dambi na ro kuluhiro renu k'arina mana yoyosi
And those in Christ who have already died are lost,Na kidza aryahu at'u mariofwa kahi za Masihi magonya kwangamika
If our hope in Christ is only for this life here on earth then people should feel more sorry for us than for anyone else,Na kala th'amaa yehu kahi za Masihi be ni ya gaga maisha huishigo wakathi uu kare be hunavirya kugwizirwa mbazi kukira at'u angine osi
But Christ really has been raised from deaththe first one of all those who will be raised,Ela ujeri ni kwamba Masihi wafufulwa Iye nde mut'u wa kwandza kufufulwa kunyesa kukala at'u mariofwa nao mandafufulwa
Death comes to people because of what one man did But now there is resurrection from death because of another man,Kwani here kifwa kirizhokudza kukirira kwa mut'u mumwenga kufufulwa nako kwakudza kukirira kwa mut'u mumwenga
I mean that in Adam all of us die And in the same way in Christ all of us will be made alive again,Here at'u osi mafwazho kahi za Adamu ndo at'u osi mandizhofufulwa kahi za Masihi
But everyone will be raised to life in the right order Christ was first to be raised Then when Christ comes again those who belong to him will be raised to life,Ela kila mut'u andafufulwa kulengana na mupangowe Masihi wafufulwa kwandza gonya at'u a Masihi mandafufulwa wakathi andihouya
Then the end will come Christ will destroy all rulers authorities and powers Then he will give the kingdom to God the Father,Mwisho undafika wakathi Masihi andihoshinda nguvu zosi na wadimi wosi na athawali osi na amup'e uthawali Mulungu Baba
Christ must rule until God puts all enemies under his control,Kwani Masihi ni hatha athawale muhaka haho andihoathambaraza mahadhuie osi ts'inize
The last enemy to be destroyed will be death,Na hadhui wa mwisho kamare kushindwa ni kifwa
As the Scriptures say God put everything under his controlWhen it says that everything is put under him it is clear that this does not include God himself God is the one putting everything under Christs control,Kwani Mulungu waika kila kit'u kikale ts'ini za Masihi Na maneno gaga Waika kila kit'u kikale ts'ini za Masihi gananyesa lwazu kamare kukala iye ariyeika kila kit'u kikale ts'ini za Masihi k'ats'ini za Masihi bule
After everything has been put under Christ then the Son himself will be put under God God is the one who put everything under Christ And Christ will be put under God so that God will be the complete ruler over everything,Kwani wakathi Mulungu Baba andihoika kila kit'u ts'ini za mwana ye mwana mwenye naye andaikwa ts'ini za iye ariyeika kila kit'u ts'inize ili kwamba Mulungu athawale dzulu za kila kit'u
If no one will ever be raised from death then what will the people do who are baptized for those who have died If the dead are never raised then why are people baptized for them,Kuna at'u mabat'izwao kwa ut'u wa at'u ao mariofwa Vikara kala k'akuna kufufulwa mandahendadze Na ni kit'u chani kiahendyacho mabat'izwe kwa ut'u wa at'u ao kala k'akuna kufufulwa
And what about us Why do we put ourselves in danger every hour,H'e sino swi kuna haja yani kudzangiza kahi za hathari wakathi wosi
I face death every day That is true brothers and sisters just as it is true that I am proud of what you are because of Christ Jesus our Lord,Ndugu zangu mimi ni kahi za hathari ya kwalagwa kilacha Na vivi sikavinenere bule ela ninavinena kwa kudzionya niriko nako dzulu zenu ninwi kahi za Bwana wehu Masihi Jesu
I fought wild animals in Ephesus If I did that only for human reasons then I have gained nothing If we are not raised from death Let us eat and drink because tomorrow we die,Kala lengo rangu ni ra kidamu mino be tha ningapata faidha yani kwa kupigana na nyama a tsakani kuno Efeso Kala at'u k'amafufulwa Nahurye na hunwe mana machero hundafwa
Dont be fooled Bad friends will ruin good habits,Musikengwe bule Asena ai nikwanonga mut'u
Come back to your right way of thinking and stop sinning Some of you dont know God I say this to shame you,H'aya tsundzulukwani here viviryazho muriche kuhenda dambi mana angine enu k'amamumanya Mulungu bule Ninanena vivi kwamba nimugwize haya
But someone may ask How are the dead raised What kind of body will they have,Hangine mut'u anadima kuamba O at'u mariofwa mafufulwadze Hatha ni mwiri wani mandiokala nao be o
These are stupid questions When you plant something it must die in the ground before it can live and grow,Ela k'umuzuzu zhomu uwe Ni mbeyu yani udimayo kuilaya gonya ikamera bila kuandza kufwa kwandza
And when you plant something what you plant does not have the same body that it will have later What you plant is only a seed maybe wheat or something else,Kit'u ulayacho uwe ni yo t'embe thu Inadima kukala ya ngano hedu ya mumera mungine wowosi K'udima kulaya mumera udziwokumala kare
But God gives it the body that he has planned for it and he gives each kind of seed its own body,Ela Mulungu nde aihendyaye mbeyu ikamera na mwiri here ahendzazho iye na kuihendya kila mbeyu ikakala na mwiri wa mudhembawe wenye
All things made of flesh are not the same People have one kind of flesh animals have another birds have another and fish have yet another kind,Kwani miri si mimwenga bule Mudamu ana mwiriwe munyama ana mwiriwe kumba rina mwiriwe munyama wa kubururuka naye ana mwiriwe
Also there are heavenly bodies and earthly bodies But the beauty of the heavenly bodies is one kind and the beauty of the earthly bodies is another,Kuna miri ya mulunguni na miri ya dhuniani Udzo wa miri ya mulunguni u vingine na udzo wa miri ya dhuniani nawo u vingine
The sun has one kind of beauty the moon has another kind and the stars have another And each star is different in its beauty,Dzuwa rina udzowe mwezi una udzowe na nyenyezi nazo zina udzowe Kila nyenyezi ina udzowe uriwo k'auvimwenga na nyenyezi nyingine
It will be the same when those who have died are raised to life The body that is planted in the grave will ruin and decay but it will be raised to a life that cannot be destroyed,Na vizho ndo virizho hatha kahi za kufufuka Wo mwiri uzikwao ni mwiri wa kufwa na kuola ela uryahu ufufukao k'aufwa bule
When the body is planted it is without honor But when it is raised it will be great and glorious When the body is planted it is weak But when it is raised it will be full of power,Mwiri ukizikwa ni kukala si mudzo bule ela ukifufuka undakala mudzo Wakathi unazikwa nikukala k'auna nguvu bule ela wakathi ukifufuka undakala na nguvu
The body that is planted is a physical body When it is raised it will be a spiritual body,Ukizikwa ni mwiri wa kawaida ela ukifufuka undakala ni mwiri wa kiroho Kwani zho kurizho na mwiri wa kawaida hatha mwiri wa kiroho nawo u kuko
As the Scriptures say The first man Adam became a living personBut the last Adamis a lifegiving spirit,Ndosa Maoro ganaamba kukala Ye mut'u wa kwandza yani Adamu waumbwa akale chumbe kisohacho Ela Adamu wa mwisho ye wakala roho ilazhayo uzima
The spiritual man did not come first It was the physical man that came first then came the spiritual,Ela wo mwiri wa kiroho so wa kwandza bule Wa kwandza ni wo wa kawaida ndo udze wo wa kiroho
The first man came from the dust of the earth The second man came from heaven,Mut'u wa kwandza ni wa haha ts'i na waumbwa na ulongo Ela mut'u wa hiri ni wa mulunguni
All people belong to the earth They are like that first man of earth But those who belong to heaven are like that man of heaven,Na zho mut'u wa ulongo arizhokala ndo at'u a ulongo marizho Na zho mut'u wa mulunguni arizho ndo at'u a mulunguni marizho
We were made like that man of earth so we will also be made like that man of heaven,Kwa vizho here furizho fudzahalana na yuyahu mut'u wa ulongo hundahalana na yuyahu mut'u wa mulunguni
I tell you this brothers and sisters Our bodies of flesh and blood cannot have a part in Gods kingdom Something that will ruin cannot have a part in something that never ruins,Ndugu zangu ninamwambira kukala mwiri uu wa nyama na milatso k'audima kwangira kahi za uthawali wa Mulungu bule Kidza kit'u kifwacho na kuola k'akidima kuhokera kiryahu kiricho k'akifwa
But listen I tell you this secret We will not all die but we will all be changed,Sirikizani nimwambire njama hedu k'ahundafwa hosi bule hosi hundagaluzwa
It will only take the time of a second We will be changed as quickly as an eye blinks This will happen when the last trumpet blows The trumpet will blow and those who have died will be raised to live forever And we will all be changed,Na ut'u uwo be k'aundahala muda mure bule Fukihenda pe vidzakala kare Vivi vindakala haho gunda ra mwisho rikirira Kwani gunda riro rikirira at'u mariofwa mandafufulwa makale at'u masiofwa kaheri naswi hundagaluzwa
This body that ruins must clothe itself with something that will never ruin And this body that dies must clothe itself with something that will never die,Kwani wo mwiri wa kubugurika ni hatha uvale kutsabugurika na wo mwiri wa kufwa uvale kutsafwa
So this body that ruins will clothe itself with that which never ruins And this body that dies will clothe itself with that which never dies When this happens the Scriptures will be made true,Bai wakathi wo mwiri wa kubugurika ukivala kutsabugurika na wo mwiri wa kufwa ukivala kutsafwa Maoro gandakala gadzathimira Kwani Maoro ganaamba kukala
O death where is your victory,Kifwa k'akina ushindi kaheri
Deaths power to hurt is sin and the power of sin is the law,Nguvu za kifwa za kuhulumizira siswi ni dambi na nguvu za dambi ni sheria
But we thank God who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ,Ela nahumushukuru Mulungu kwa kuhup'a ushindi kukirira kwa Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi
So my dear brothers and sisters stand strong Dont let anything change you Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord You know that your work in the Lord is never wasted,Kwa vizho bai ndugu zangu ahendzwi ch'it'ani musisunuke bule Thuwani kuhenda kazi ya Bwana siku zosi mukimanya kukala yo kazi muhendayo kahi za Bwana si ya kihuhu bule
Now about the collection of money for Gods people Do the same as I told the Galatian churches to do,Vikara kuhusu uryahu mutsango wa kuaviza at'u a Mulungu kuko Jerusalemu nikahendza niambe vivi hendani here nirizhoalagiza at'u a makanisa ga Galatia
On the first day of every week each of you should take some of your money and put it in a special place Save up as much as you can from what you are blessed with Then you will not have to gather it all after I come,Kila siku ya kwandza ya wiki kila mumwenga wenu naahale kiasi cha p'esa kulengana na zo p'esa andizokala adzapata na achike kwa ut'u wa wo mutsango uwo K'ahana haja ya kunithariza hatha nidze ndo mutsange
When I arrive I will send some men to take your gift to Jerusalem These will be the ones you all agree should go I will send them with letters of introduction,Haho nikidza nindaandhikira baruwa za kuamanyisa aryahu at'u mundioatsagula ninwi gonya niahume mahirike wo mutsango wenu ko Jerusalemu
If it seems good for me to go too we can all travel together,Ela vikikala ni karakara mimi nami nende nindagwirana nao fwende hamwenga
I plan to go through Macedonia so I will come to you after that,Nindakudza kuko kwenu ela ninahendza nikire na Mak'edonia kwandza
Maybe I will stay with you for a time I might even stay all winter Then you can help me on my trip wherever I go,Hangine nindakudza nikale hamwenga nanwi kwa muda Vichadimikika hatha wo wakathi wa p'eho nadima kuugonyera kuko ili munavize nienderere na charo changu kokosi nindikokwenda
I dont want to come see you now because I would have to leave to go to other places I hope to stay a longer time with you if the Lord allows it,Charo kiki ts'endzi nihende kumukirira thu Ninamala Bwana akihendza nidze nikale hamwenga nanwi kwa muda
But I will stay in Ephesus until Pentecost,Ela vivi kare be nindakala haha Efeso muhaka sherehe ya Pentekote ikire
I will stay here because a good opportunity for a great and growing work has been given to me now And there are many people working against it,Kwani ingahokala mapingao ni anji haha hana nafasi bomu ya kuhenda kazi ya kumanyikana
Timothy might come to you Try to make him feel comfortable with you He is working for the Lord the same as I am,T'imoth'i akidza kuko hakikishani kukala k'ana wasiwasi wakathi andihokala a kahi zenu Kwani iye anahenda kazi ya Bwana dza zho nihendazho mimi
So none of you should refuse to accept Timothy Help him continue on his trip in peace so that he can come back to me I am expecting him to come back with the other brothers,Kwa vizho mut'u asimuvudhye bule akidza mwavizeni ili aenderere na charoche na dheri kudza kuku niriko Kwani iye hamwenga na o ndugu zehu adzao nao ninaathariza
Now about our brother Apollos I strongly encouraged him to visit you with the other brothers He prefers not to come now but he will come when he has the opportunity,Kuhusu ndugu yehu Apolo mimi namwambira kamare kukala agwirane na o ndugu angine adze ko kwenu adze amulole ela kwa wakathi uu k'ahendzeze bule Kwa vizho akipata nafasi andakudzamulola
Be careful Hold firmly to your faith Have courage and be strong,Kalani matso na ro kuluhiro murigwire kurunya Imani kilume na mukale na nguvu
Do everything in love,Kila kit'u mundichohenda kihendeni kwa mahendzo
You know that Stephanas and his family were the first believers in Achaia They have given themselves to the service of Gods people I ask you brothers and sisters,Ndugu zangu ninwi munamanya kukala Sitefana na at'u a nyumba ya kwakwe ndo at'u a kwandza kumukuluhira Masihi kuko Akaia Kidza munamanya kukala ao madzilazha kamare kuahumikira at'u a Mulungu Bai ninamuvoya kukala
to follow the leading of people like these and others who work hard and serve together with them,zho mandizhomulongoza ao hamwenga na ahumiki angine mahendao kazi dza ao muthuwe vizho
I am happy that Stephanas Fortunatus and Achaicus have come You are not here but they have filled your place,Kudza kwa Sitefana Fotunato na Akaiko kunanifwahira zhomu kwani yo nafasi iriyokala haho kwa kutsakalako kwenu be maidzaza ao
They have been a great encouragement to me and to you as well You should recognize the value of such people,Kwani ao manihuriza moyo wangu dza zho marizhomuhuriza ninwi Kwa vizho amanyeni at'u dza ao
The churches in Asia send you their greetings Aquila and Priscilla greet you in the Lord Also the church that meets in their house sends greetings,Mudzalamuswa ni makanisa gosi ga Asia Akw'ila na P'urisila hamwenga na at'u osi mathungananao kahi za nyumba yao kwa mavoyo madzamulamusa zhomu kahi za Bwana
All the brothers and sisters here send their greetings Give each other the special greeting of Gods people,Mudzalamuswa ni ndugu osini kuku Na ninwi nanwi lamusanani kwa kudonerana kahi za ueri
Heres my greeting in my own handwriting,Mimi P'aulo ninandhika uvoro uu kwa mukono wangu mwenye

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,Bai nema na dheri kula kwa Mulungu Babiyehu na Bwana Jesu Masihi navikale kwenu
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ He is the Father who is full of mercy the God of all comfort,Naalikwe ye Mulungu Babaye Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi Iye ni Baba wa mbazi na Mulungu ariye kwangizwa moyo kosi kunambola kwakwe
He comforts us every time we have trouble so that when others have trouble we can comfort them with the same comfort God gives us,Iye nde afwangizaye moyo kahi za mateso gosi hugapatago Na kukirira na kwangizwa moyo kuko siswi naswi ni kwadima kuangiza moyo at'u angine mapatao mateso ga kila namuna
We share in the many sufferings of Christ In the same way much comfort comes to us through Christ,Kwani here go mateso ga Masihi gakazazho kwangezeka dzulu zehu ndo fukazazho kwangizwa moyo kukirira kwa iye Masihi ili ninwi nanwi mupate kwangizwa moyo
If we have troubles it is for your comfort and salvation If we are comforted it is so that we can comfort you And this helps you patiently accept the same sufferings we have,Bai fukiteseka funateseka ili ninwi mukadime kwangizwa moyo na mukadime kupata wokolwi Na fuchangizwa moyo funangizwa moyo ili ninwi nanwi mukadime kwangizwa moyo Kwangizwa moyo kuku kundazhala kuvumirira ndani zenu na vizho vindamuhendya mwadime kuvumirira mateso dza go fugapatago siswi
Our hope for you is strong We know that you share in our sufferings So we know that you also share in our comfort,Na th'amaa yehu dzulu zenu k'aisunuka bule kwani hunamanya kukala here zho murizho na muthalo kahi za go mateso gehu muna muthalo kahi za ko kwangizwa moyo kwehu
Brothers and sisters we want you to know about the trouble we suffered in Asia We had great burdens there which were greater than our own strength We even gave up hope for life,Ndugu zangu hunahendza mumanye dzulu za go mateso furigogapata kuko Asia Kwani gakala maziho zhomu kukira kimo chehu hatha yo th'amaa ya kuishi ikifwambola
In fact it seems like God has been telling us we are going to die But this is so that we will not trust in ourselves but in God who raises people from death,Fakala here at'u madziohukumiwa kwalagwa Ela gago gosi gahendeka ili kwamba fusidzitegemee enye bule ela fumutegemee Mulungu afufulaye mariofwa
He saved us from these great dangers of death and he will continue to save us We feel sure he will always save us,Iye nde ariyehuthizha kula kahi za hathari bomu ya kifwa kicho kidza andaenderera kufuthizha Naswi hunakuluhira kukala iye ariyehuthizha andaenderera kuhuthizha
And you can help us with your prayers Then many people will give thanks for usthat God blessed us because of their many prayers,Bai ninwi nanwi huungeni mukono kwa kuhuvoyera ili kwamba kukirira na mavoyo ga anji Mulungu ahuhase na at'u anji makamulazhire muvera kwa kukala mavoyo gao dzulu zehu gandakala gadzajibiwa
This is what we are proud of and I can say with a clear conscience that it is true In everything we have done in the world we have done it with an honest and pure heart from God And this is even truer in what we have done with you We did this by Gods grace not by the kind of wisdom the world has,Ut'u hudzionyerao siswi ni uu mioyo yehu inahuhakikishira kukala fudzaishi kahi za urumwengu uu na haswa kahi zenu ninwi kwa ueri na ujeri hurioujaliwa ni Mulungu Fudzaishi vizho kwa kutegemea nema ya Mulungu si kwa kutegemea ulachu wa kidamu
I was very sure of all this That is why I made plans to visit you first Then you could be blessed twice,Na kwa kukala maut'u gaga nere nina hakika nago nere ninahendza nidze nimulamuse mimi kwandza ili mukadime kupata baraka k'ana mbiri
I planned to visit you on my way to Macedonia and again on my way back I wanted to get help from you for my trip to Judea,Nere ninamala nidze na kuko wakathi wa kwenda Mak'edonia na wakathi wa kuuya ili mudze munavize kahi za charo changu cha kwenda Judea
Do you think that I made these plans without really thinking Or maybe you think I make plans as the world does saying yes and no at the same time,Vidze kulengana na zho nirizhopanga munaona ni mut'u wa magaluza Hedu zho nirizhopanga munaona navipanga kwa kuhumira akili za kibinadamu hatha nikale rero nadima kuamba Ee gonya machero nikaamba Hatha
But if you can believe God then you can believe that what we tell you is never both yes and no,Ela here Mulungu arizho mwaminifu uvoro huriomurehera nawo ni wa kuaminika Fukiamba Ee ni ee na fukiamba Hatha ni hatha
The Son of God Jesus Christ the one that Silas Timothy and I told you about was not yes and no In Christ it has always been yes,Kwani ye Jesu Masihi Mwana wa Mulungu furiyemuhubiri kwenu mimi na Silivano na T'imoth'i be k'ana magaluza bule ra kwakwe iye ni ee kwenda
The yes to all of Gods promises is in Christ And that is why we say Amen through Christ to the glory of God,Kwani vilagane zhosi zha Mulungu zhathimira kwakwe iye Ndosa hukiamba h'aami kukirira kwa iye hunamup'a nguma Mulungu
And God is the one who makes you and us strong in Christ God is also the one who chose us for his work,Ela Mulungu nde ahuimarishaye siswi hamwenga na ninwi kahi za Masihi Kidza nde ariyefuhaka mafuha siswi
He put his mark on us to show that we are his Yes he put his Spirit in our hearts as the first payment that guarantees all that he will give us,na akihupiga muhuri kwa kuhup'a Roho kahi za mioyo yehu Roho yuyu wahup'a ili akale here rubuni ya kila kit'u andichohup'a
I tell you this and I ask God to be my witness that this is true The reason I did not come back to Corinth was that I did not want to punish or hurt you,Mulungu ni shudhia wa moyo wangu kukala mimi sidzire Korintho kaheri kwa ut'u wa mbazi nirizo nazo dzulu zenu
I dont mean that we are trying to control your faith You are strong in faith But we are workers with you for your own happiness,Kunena vivi si kwamba hunamala hurithawale ro kuluhiro renu ela hunamala huhende kazi hamwenga nanwi ili mukapate fwahiro mana ninwi muimire kahi za kuluhiro renu
So I decided that my next visit to you would not be another visit to make you sad,Bai naona baha nisidze kaheri ko kwenu mana sihendzeze kudzamushononesa kaheri
If I make you sad then who will make me happy Only you can make me happyyou the ones I made sad,Kwani ninwi ndinwi mudimao kunihendya nikale na raha Vikara nikimushononesa mino ndagerwa furaha ni h'ani
I wrote you a letter so that when I came to you I would not be made sad by those who should make me happy I felt sure that all of you would share my joy,Iryahu baruwa niriyomwandhikira nayandhika vizho ili kwamba ninwi muviryao kunip'a furaha musidze mukanishononesa wakathi nikidza kuko Kwani nina hakika nanwi nyosi kukala furaha yangu be ndo furaha yenu nyosi
When I wrote to you before I was very troubled and my heart was full of sadness I wrote with many tears I did not write to make you sad but to let you know how much I love you,Baruwa iyo nayandhika kwa utsungu munji na huzuni kahi za moyo wangu Nayandhika na matsozi manji Na sihendere vizho ili nimushononese ninwi navihenda ili mupate kumanya go mahendzo mabomu nirigo nago dzulu zenu
Someone in your group has caused sadnessnot to me but to all of you I mean he has caused sadness to all in some way I dont want to make it sound worse than it really is,Na kala hana mut'u ariyehenda at'u mashononeke be k'anishononesere mimi h'akiyangu Kwa kiasi fulani wamushononesa ninwi nyosi Ninanena vivi ili p'ore nikakala mukali zhomu
The punishment that most of your group gave him is enough for him,Kwa mut'u dza iye yo adhabu muriyomup'a anji enu inamuthosha
But now you should forgive him and encourage him This will keep him from having too much sadness and giving up completely,Kiserecho ni mumusamehe na mumwangize moyo p'ore akashononeka zhomu hatha akabandika moyo
So I beg you to show him that you love him,Kwa vizho bai ninamuvoya mumwanyese kukala munamuhendza jeri
This is why I wrote to you I wanted to test you and see if you obey in everything,Baruwa iryahu pia nayandhika ili nipate kuhakikisha chamba mu asikizi kahi za maut'u gosi
If you forgive someone then I also forgive them And what I have forgivenif I had anything to forgiveI forgave it for you and Christ was with me,Mut'u yoyosi mukimusamehe ninwi hatha mimi nami nidzamusamehe Na kala hana ut'u wowosi uriwo mimi nausamehe nausamehe mbere za Masihi kwa ut'u wenu ninwi
I did this so that Satan would not win anything from us We know very well what his plans are,Nafuhende vivi ili Shethani asipate nafasi ya kuhushinda akili kwani mipangoye ni yo huimanyayo kare
I went to Troas to tell people the Good News of Christ The Lord gave me a good opportunity there,Nirihongira mudzi wa T'eroa kwa ut'u wa wo Uvoro Udzo wa Masihi Bwana wanivugulira ngira
But I had no peace because I did not find my brother Titus So I said goodbye and went to Macedonia,ela kwa kukala ndugu yangu Tito were k'ako nakosa dheri kahi za moyo wangu Kwa vizho nikilaga nikidza kuku Mak'edonia
But thanks be to God who always leads us in victory through Christ God uses us to spread his knowledge everywhere like a sweetsmelling perfume,Ela Mulungu naagerwe muvera kwani siku zosi iye nde ahulongozaye kahi za yo ngororoki ya ushindi wa Masihi na kufwadimira kuamanyisa at'u wo ujeri wa Masihi kila hat'u Ujeri uu unanuk'at'o here marashi
Our offering to God is to be the perfume of Christ that goes out to those who are being saved and to those who are being lost,Kwani siswi hu marashi ga Masihi gambozwago kwa kazi ya Mulungu kahi za ao maokolwao na ao mangamikao
To those who are being lost this perfume smells like death and it brings them death But to those who are being saved it has the sweet smell of life and it brings them life So who is good enough to do this work,Kwa ao mangamikao hu muruk'e wa kifwa undiwoangiza kifwani Ela kwa ao maokolwao hu muruk'e wa uzima undiwoangiza uzimani H'aya ni h'ani adimaye kuhenda kazi dza ino
Certainly not those who are out there selling Gods message for a profit But we dont do that With Christs help we speak Gods truth honestly knowing that we must answer to him,Kwani siswi k'afuhere at'u anji mahubirio neno ra Mulungu ili mapate p'esa Siswi hunahubiri kahi za ueri mbere za Mulungu Hunahubiri kahi za Masihi here at'u mariohumwa ni Mulungu
Why are we beginning again to tell you all these good things about ourselves Do we need letters of introduction to you or from you like some other people,Vidze viambwe fudzakwatya kudzilika kaheri hedu dze Hatha siswi k'afumala baruwa za kuhulika bule kumbola kwenu hedu kudza kwenu here at'u angine marizho
No you yourselves are our letter written on our hearts It is known and read by all people,Ninwi ndinwi baruwa yehu iriyondhikwa kahi za mioyo yehu Baruwa ii inamanywa na kushomwa ni kila mut'u
You show that you are a letter from Christ that he sent through us This letter is not written with ink but with the Spirit of the living God It is not written on stonetablets but on human hearts,Ni lwazu kukala ninwi mu baruwa iriyondhikwa ni Masihi na akihup'a siswi huilazhe kwa mikono yehu Baruwa ii k'aindhikirwe na wino bule ela yandhikwa kwa nguvu za Roho wa Mulungu ariye moyo Kidza k'aindhikirwe dzulu za vihande zha mawe ela yandhikwa ndani za mioyo ya at'u
We can say this because through Christ we feel sure before God,Na uhakika uwo huriwo nawo hunaupata kula kwa Mulungu kukirira kwa Masihi
I dont mean that we are able to do anything good ourselves It is God who makes us able to do all that we do,Nikinena vivi si kwamba hunadima kuhenda ut'u wowosi udzo kwa nguvu zehu enye hatha Wadimi wehu wosi umbola kwa Mulungu
He made us able to be servants of a new agreement from himself to his people It is not an agreement of written laws but it is of the Spirit The written law brings death but the Spirit gives life,Iye nde ariyefwadimira hukale ahumiki a kwakwe kahi za kilagane kisha Kilagane kiki si cha Sheria za kwandhikwa bule ela ni kilagane cha Roho Kwani kilagane cha Sheria ya kwandhikwa nikureha kifwa ela Roho ye nikureha uzima
The old agreementthat brought death written with words on stone came with Gods glory In fact the face of Moses was so bright with glory a glory that was ending that the people of Israel could not continue looking at his face,Ingahokala Sheria ya kuorwa dzulu ya mawe yareha kifwa wakathi wa kudzakwe yakudza na mulangaza munji Vivi zhauhendya uso wa Musa ukikala unang'ala hatha Aiziraeli makikala k'amadima kumulola dii bule Ela mulangaza uu were ni wa muda thu Vikara kala yo sheria iriyoreha kifwa thu kidza yakudza na nguma bomu vizho
So surely the new agreement that comes from the lifegiving Spirit has even more glory,h'e seze yo nguma indiyokudza na yo kazi ya Roho yo k'aindakala bomu zaidhi
This is what I mean That old agreement judged people guilty of sin but it had glory So surely the new agreement that makes people right with God has much greater glory,Bai kala kazi ya kureha hukumu thu kidza yakudza na nguma h'e seze kazi ya kureha uhachi yo k'aindakala na nguma bomu zaidhi na zaidhi
That old agreement had glory But it really loses its glory when it is compared to the much greater glory of the new agreement,Kwa ut'u uwo iryahu nguma ya kapindi idzauya si nguma kaheri kwa kukala nafasi ya kwakwe yahalwa ni nguma bomu kukira iyo
If the agreement that was brought to an end came with glory then the agreement that never ends has much greater glory,Vikara kala ut'u wa muda kidza wakudza na nguma h'e seze wo ut'u wa kare na kare wo k'aundakala na nguma bomu zaidhi
We are so sure of this hope that we can speak very openly,Bai kwa kukala th'amaa yehu ni iyo k'ahuna woga wowosi kahi za kazi zehu
We are not like Moses who put a covering over his face He covered his face so that the people of Israel would not see it The glory was disappearing and Moses did not want them to see it end,Kidza siswi k'afuhere Musa bule ariyekala akidzibiningiza kithambaa ili kwamba o Aiziraeli masimulole dii bule makaona ko kung'ala kwa wo usowe kurizhogoma
But their minds were closed And even today when those people read the writings of the old agreementthat same covering hides the meaning That covering has not been removed for them It is taken away only through Christ,Ao were ni at'u a vitswa vikomu Na hatha warero kishomwaho cho kilagane cha kare kidza kiryahu kithambaa kirichoazia matso k'akidzauka bule mana ni kukirira kwa Masihi h'akeye ndo kidimaho kuuka
Yes even today when they read the Law of Moses there is a covering over their minds,Na hatha warero kila wakathi Sheria ya Musa ishomwaho kidza kiryahu kithambaa kichere kidzaazia mioyo yao
But when someone changes and follows the Lord that covering is taken away,Ela wakathi mut'u amugalukiraho Bwana kiryahu kithambaa ni kuuswa
The Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit of the Lord is there is freedom,Vikara Bwana haha ni Roho na kila ariho Roho wa Bwana hana uhuru
And our faces are not covered We all show the Lords glory and we are being changed to be like him This change in us brings more and more glory which comes from the Lord who is the Spirit,Bai siswi hosi hurio nyuso zehu zagunulwa funaona nguma ya Bwana here dza viryahu hurimikwazho na kilolo Kidza funaenderera kugaluzwa kula nguma mwenga hatha nyingine ili kwamba hukaze kuhalana na wo mufanowe Kazi ii yosi inahendwa ni Bwana ariye ni Roho
God with his mercy gave us this work to do so we dont give up,Mulungu kwa mbazize wahup'a kazi ii kwa vizho k'ahufwa moyo bule
But we have turned away from secret and shameful ways We dont use trickery and we dont change the teaching of God We teach the truth plainly This is how we show people who we are And this is how they can know in their hearts what kind of people we are before God,Ela fwakahala maut'u ga aibu gahendwago kisiri-siri K'afwendzi kuhumira namuna yoyosi ya ulongo hedu kurigaluza neno ra Mulungu Hat'uhe hunawika wo ujeri lwazu mbere za Mulungu na kunyesa kukala hu ajeri kahi za moyo wa kila mut'u
The Good News that we tell people may be hidden but it is hidden only to those who are lost,Ela chamba wo Uvoro Udzo fuhubiriwo be udzafitsika udzafitsika kwao ao mangamikao
The rulerof this world has blinded the minds of those who dont believe They cannot see the light of the Good Newsthe message about the divine greatness of Christ Christ is the one who is exactly like God,At'u ao k'amakuluhira kwa kukala ye mulungu wa urumwengu uu adzaafunga kizuzu kahi za akili zao Vivi vinaahendya kukala wo mulangaza wa wo Uvoro Udzo wa nguma masiwone bule Mulangaza uu ni wa Masihi ariye nde muhalano wa Mulungu
We dont tell people about ourselves But we tell people that Jesus Christ is Lord and we tell them that we are your servants for Jesus,Kwani siswi k'afudzihubiri enye bule ela funamuhubiri Jesu Masihi kukala nde Bwana Sino swi fu ahumiki enu kwa ut'u wa ye Jesu
God once said Let light shine out of the darknessAnd this is the same God who made his light shine in our hearts to let us know that his own divine greatness is seen in the face of Christ,Mana ye Mulungu ariyeamba Mulangaza naung'ale kizani be nde ariyefung'alira siswi kahi za mioyo yehu Bai wahenda vivi ili kwamba akadime kuhup'a mulangaza wa kumanya yo ngumaye mulangaza uriwo usoni mwa Masihi
We have this treasure from God but we are only like clay jars that hold the treasure This is to show that the amazing power we have is from God not from us,Ela ut'u uwo wa kima kibomu u kahi zehu siswi furio here viya zha ulongo Vivi vinamanyisa kukala zo nguvu bomu za kwangalaza ni za Mulungu si zehu siswi
We have troubles all around us but we are not defeated We often dont know what to do but we dont give up,Hunasirinywa kwa ngira nyinji ela k'ahuremezwa bule Funangalazika ela k'ahufwa moyo bule
We are persecuted but God does not leave us We are hurt sometimes but we are not destroyed,Hunateswa ela k'ahukosa musadha bule Hunalumizwa sana ela k'ahufwa bule
So we constantly experience the death of Jesus in our own bodies but this is so that the life of Jesus can also be seen in our bodies,Funatsukula kifwa cha Jesu kahi za miri yehu siku zosi ili kwamba uzimawe nawo ukadime kuoneka lwazu kahi za miri yehu
We are alive but for Jesus we are always in danger of death so that the life of Jesus can be seen in our bodies that die,Kwani siswi hurio moyo siku zosi hunaguzwa hufwe kwa ut'u wa Jesu ili kwamba uzimawe nawo ukadime kuoneka lwazu kahi za miri yehu ii ya kufwa na kuola
So death is working in us but the result is that life is working in you,Kwa vizho kifwa ki mwirini mwehu siswi ela kwenu ninwi ni uzima
The Scriptures say I believed so I spokeOur faith is like that too We believe and so we speak,Maoro ganaamba kukala Nakuluhira ndo hatha nikinena Na kwa kukala siswi naswi huna moyo uwo wa kuluhiro funakuluhira ndo hatha funanena
God raised the Lord Jesus from death and we know that he will also raise us with Jesus God will bring us together with you and we will stand before him,Kwani hunamanya kukala iye ariyemufufula Bwana Jesu hatha siswi naswi andahufufula dza zho zha Jesu na ahufishe mbereze hamwenga na ninwi
All these things are for you And so the grace of God is being given to more and more people This will bring more and more thanks to God for his glory,Kwani vivi zhosi vinakala kwa ut'u wenu ninwi ili nema ya Mulungu ikaze kuafikira at'u anji zaidhi na Mulungu agerwe nguma kwa muvera undiwongezeka
That is why we never give up Our physical body is becoming older and weaker but our spirit inside us is made new every day,Kwa vizho k'ahufwa moyo bule Ingahokala miri yehu inaenderera kugoma roho zehu zinangizwa nguvu mbisha kilacha
We have small troubles for a while now but these troubles are helping us gain an eternal glory That eternal glory is much greater than our troubles,Kwani zizi thabu hupatazo vivi be ni th'ith'e kidza ni za muda thu Ela zinahurehera nguma bomu ya kare na kare isiyo na mwandziwe
So we think about what we cannot see not what we see What we see lasts only a short time and what we cannot see will last forever,Kwa vizho siswi k'ahuthariza vit'u huzhonazho na matso bule ela hunathariza vit'u visizhooneka Kwani vit'u huzhonazho na matso ni zha muda thu ela vit'u visizhooneka ni zha kare na kare
We know that our bodythe tent we live in here on earthwill be destroyed But when that happens God will have a home for us to live in It will not be the kind of home people build here It will be a home in heaven that will continue forever,Kwani hunamanya kukala yo nyumba huishiyo kahi za urumwengu uu ikibandwa Mulungu andahup'a nyumba nyingine ya kare na kare kuko mulunguni Nyumba iyo k'aiakirwe na mikono bule
But now we are tired of this body We want God to give us our heavenly home,Na ni jeri kukala kahi za nyumba ii huishiyo hunagula kwa hamu huriyo nayo ya yo nyumba ya mulunguni hundiyoivala here nguwo
It will clothe us and we will not be naked,Naswi hukiivala nyumba iyo k'ahundakala huhu bule
While we live in this tent we have burdens and so we complain I dont mean that we want to remove this tent but we want to be clothed with our heavenly home Then this body that dies will be covered with life,Wakathi uu siswi hurio huchere kahi za nyumba ii ya haha dhuniani hunagula kwa kuremererwa zhomu Si kwamba hunamala kuvulwa mwiri uu wa kufwa hatha Humalaro ni huvikwe mwiri usiwofwa ili wo wa kufwa umizwe kamare ni uzima
This is what God himself made us for And he has given us the Spirit as the first payment to guarantee the life to come,Mulungu nde ariyehuthayarisha kwa ut'u uu wahuhakikishira kukala vindakala kwa kuhup'a Roho wa kwakwe here rubuni
So we always have confidence We know that while we live in this body we are away from the Lord,Kwa vizho siku zosi huna hakika na hunamanya kukala fukikala fu kahi za mwiri uu be k'afukwehu bule kuko kwa Bwana
We live by what we believe will happen not by what we can see,Mana hunaishi kwa kuluhiro k'ahuishi kwa kuona
So I say that we have confidence And we really want to be away from this body and be at home with the Lord,Na huna hakika kwandza k'afukahere fukauka kahi za mwiri uu na hukenda kuko kwehu kwa Bwana
Our only goal is to always please the Lord whether we are living here in this body or there with him,Kwa vizho ut'u huumalao zhomu ni kukala fumufwahize iye fukakala kahi za mwiri uu hedu fukakala kuko kwa Bwana
We must all stand before Christ to be judged Everyone will get what they should They will be paid for whatever they didgood or badwhen they lived in this earthly body,Kwani siswi hosi hundaima mbere za kihi cha hukumu cha Masihi na kila mut'u arifwe kulengana na mahendo ga kwakwe madzo hedu mai arigogahenda wakathi arihokala anaishi kahi za mwiri uu
We know what it means to fear the Lord so we try to help people accept the truth God knows what we really are and I hope that in your hearts you know us too,Kwa kukala hunamanya kumwagoha Bwana ni kit'u chani hunaangola-ngola at'u Ela Mulungu anahumanya zho hurizho na ninakuluhira kukala hatha ninwi nanwi kahi za mioyo yenu munahumanya zho hurizho
We are not trying to prove ourselves to you again But we are telling you about ourselves We are giving you reasons to be proud of us Then you will have an answer for those who are proud about what can be seen They dont care about what is in a persons heart,Kunena vivi si kwamba hunadzilika kwenu kaheri ela hunamala mupate chausa cha kudzionya kwa ut'u wehu siswi Kidza hunahenda vivi ili kwamba mupate kuadzigidzya ao madzionyao kwa ut'u wa maut'u ga ndze thu na si ga ndani moyoni
If we are crazy it is for God If we have our right mind it is for you,Kwani hukionewa kukala huna vilalu ni kwa ut'u wa Mulungu Na hukionewa kukala huna akili zehu ni kwa ut'u wenu ninwi
The love of Christ controls us because we know that one person died for everyone So all have died,Mana mahendzo ga Masihi ganahuthawala kwa kukala siswi fwagonya kukubali kukala mut'u mumwenga thu waafwerera at'u osi Bai kukirira kwakwe iye at'u osi makifwa
He died for all so that those who live would not continue to live for themselves He died for them and was raised from death so that they would live for him,Iye wafwerera kila mut'u ili aryahu mariohokera maisha masha masiishi kwa kudzifwahiza enye ela mamufwahize iye ariyeafwerera na akifufulwa kwa ao
From this time on we dont think of anyone as the world thinks of people It is true that in the past we thought of Christ as the world thinks But we dont think that way now,Bai kula wakathi uwo siswi k'ahumulola mut'u yoyosi kibinadamu Wakathi mumwenga fwamulola Masihi kibinadamu ela vivi k'ahumulola kivizho bule
When anyone is in Christ it is a whole new worldThe old things are gone suddenly everything is new,Kwa vizho mut'u akikala ndani za Masihi adzakala chumbe kisha maut'u ga kare gakira na lola gadzakala masha
All this is from God Through Christ God made peace between himself and us And God gave us the work of bringing people into peace with him,Na gaga gosi ni ga Mulungu Iye nde ariyefuhendya fupatane naye kukirira kwa Masihi Na vivi wahup'a kazi ya kuapatanisha at'u na iye mwenye
I mean that God was in Christ making peace between the world and himself In Christ God did not hold people guilty for their sins And he gave us this message of peace to tell people,Nikinena vivi ninaamba kukala Mulungu waagwizanya at'u na iye kukirira kwa Masihi bila kuthala zo dambi za kwao Na kuko kuagwizanya at'u na iye ndo uvoro ariwohup'a siswi kwamba huambire angine
So we have been sent to speak for Christ It is like God is calling to people through us We speak for Christ when we beg you to be at peace with God,Bai siswi hunamuwakilisha Masihi here mabalozi Mulungu anafuhumira siswi hat'u ha Masihi kukala humuvoye ninwi muuyirane na Mulungu
Christ had no sin but God made him become sinso that in Christ we could be right with God,Iye ariyekala k'amanya dambi Mulungu wamuhendya akale dambi kwa ut'u wehu siswi ili kahi za iye hupate kuhendywa ahachi ni Mulungu
We are workers together with God So we beg you Dont let the grace that you received from God be for nothing,Bai siswi at'u huhendao kazi hamwenga na Mulungu funamuvoya kukala yo nema muriyohokera kula kwa Mulungu be isikale ni ya bule
God says,Kwani Mulungu anaamba
We dont want people to find anything wrong with our work So we do nothing that will be a problem to others,K'ahudzaika kikwazo chochosi kwa mut'u yoyosi p'ore uhumiki wehu ukalaumiwa
But in every way we show that we are servants of God We never give up even though we face troubles difficulties and problems of every kind,Ela kahi za kila kit'u huhendacho fudzanyesa kukala fu ahumiki a Mulungu kwa kuvumirira zhomu mateso thabu na mashaka
We are beaten and thrown into prison People get upset at us and fight against us We work hard and sometimes we get no sleep or food,Fapigwa fuchangizwa jela fukihenderwa fujo fukihenda kazi kwa chadi fukichesa matso fukilala na ndzala
We show that we are Gods servants by our pure lives by our understanding by our patience and by our kindness We show it by the Holy Spirit by genuine love,Hunanyesa kukala hu ahumiki a Mulungu jeri kwa ueri huriwo nawo kumanya kwehu kuvumirira moyo mudzo Roho Mweri na mahendzo ga jeri
by speaking the truth and by depending on Gods power This right way of living has prepared us to defend ourselves against every kind of attack,Kidza hunanyesa kukala hu ahumiki a Mulungu kwa uvoro wa jeri na kwa nguvu za Mulungu Kiyera chehu hudzichogwirira kahi za mikono yehu ya kurya na ya kumots'o ni uhachi
Some people honor us but others shame us Some people say good things about us but others say bad things Some people say we are liars but we speak the truth,Hu thayari kuheshimiwa hedu kuvudhywa kulikwa hedu kunenwa vii Hunaonewa funakenga ela hunanena ujeri
To some people we are not known but we are well known We seem to be dying but look We continue to live We are punished but we are not killed,Fu here at'u masiomanyikana ela hunamanywat'o sana Fu here at'u hufwao kare ela lola here muonazho hunaishi Na ingahokala hunaadhibiwa k'ahulagwa bule
We have much sadness but we are always rejoicing We are poor but we are making many people rich in faith We have nothing but really we have everything,Funashononeka ela funa raha siku zosi Fu akiya ela funaahendya at'u anji makale mathajiri K'ahuna kit'u ela huna kila kit'u
We have spoken freely to you people in Corinth We have opened our hearts to you,Ndugu zangu Akorintho hudzanena nanwi lwazu-lwazu na hunamuhendza
Our feelings of love for you have not stopped It is you who have stopped your feelings of love for us,Na chamba kuna ut'u wowosi umuzizao be ut'u uwo u kwenu ninwi k'au kwehu siswi bule
I speak to you as if you were my children Do the same as we have doneopen your hearts also,Ninanena nanwi here anangu Siswi hunamuhendza bai ninwi nanwi huhendzeni dza zho humuhendzazho
You are not the same as those who dont believe So dont join yourselves to them Good and evil dont belong together Light and darkness cannot share the same room,Musigwirane ngwa na at'u masiokuluhira Kwani kuna uhusiano wani kahi za uhachi na uthiriri Hedu kuna usena wani kahi za mulangaza na kiza
How can there be any unity between Christ and the devil What does a believer have in common with an unbeliever,Kuna mapatano gani kahi za Masihi na BeliariHedu mut'u akuluhiraye ana fungu rani na mut'u asiyekuluhira
Gods templecannot have anything to do with idols and we are the temple of the living God As God said,Vidze Hekalu ra Mulungu rina uhusiano wani na vizuka Kwani siswi hu Hekalu ra Mulungu ariye moyo Mana Mulungu wanena akiamba
So come away from those people,Kwa vizho Bwana anaamba
I will be your father,Nindakala Babiyenu
Dear friends we have these promises from God So we should make ourselves purefree from anything that makes our body or our soul unclean Our respect for God should make us try to be completely holy in the way we live,Vikara ahendzwi kwa kukala fwagerwa vilagane vivi zhosi nahutsuse ukolo wosi huriwo nawo wa mwiri hedu wa roho na hukamilishe ueri wehu kahi za kumwagoha Mulungu
Open your hearts to us We have not done wrong to anyone or caused harm to anyone And we have not cheated anyone,Huhendzeni Siswi k'ahudzamukosera mut'u yoyosi hedu kumwangamiza vuva mut'u yoyosi hedu kumukenga mut'u yoyosi
I do not say this to blame you I told you before that we love you so much we would live or die with you,Sinena vivi kumuhukumu kwani nanena kare nikiamba kukala ninwi mu mioyoni mwehu hukiishi huishi hosi na hukifwa hufwe hosi
I feel that I can tell you anything I am very proud of you Even with all the troubles we have had I am greatly encouraged and feel very happy,Ninwi be nidzamukuluhira zhomu kidza ninadzionya kwa ut'u wenu Ndosa ninangizwa moyo na kufwahirwa zhomu kahi za mateso gosi nipatago
When we came into Macedonia we had no rest We found trouble all around us We had fighting on the outside and fear on the inside,Na hatha hurihofika Mak'edonia kidza k'ahuoyere bule fwapata mateso kula kwa kila upande Ndze were kuna k'ondo mioyoni ko were huna woga
But God encourages those who are troubled and he certainly encouraged us by bringing Titus to us,Ela Mulungu aangizaye moyo at'u madziobandika moyo akifwangiza moyo kwa kudza kwa Tito
It was so good to see him but we were encouraged even more to hear about the encouragement you gave him He told us that you really want to see me and that you are very sorry for what you did And he told us how ready and willing you are to help me When I heard this I was so much happier,Na si ko kudza kwa Tito h'akeye kurikofwangiza moyo ela hatha wo uvoro ariwofurehera Kwani wakudzafwambira zho murizhomwangiza moyo Mana waona zho murizho na p'ola nami zho murizhokala na huzuni na zho murizho munanijali Vivi zhanihendya nikaze kukala na raha
Even if the letter I wrote you made you sad I am not sorry I wrote it I know that letter made you sad and I was sorry for that But it made you sad only for a short time,Hatha kala ho kwandza nadziutha dzulu za yo baruwa niriyomuhumira vivi be sidzutha bule Ninaona kukala baruwa iyo yamuhuzunisha ela kwa muda muchache
Now I am happy not because you were made sad but because your sorrow made you decide to change That is what God wanted so you were not hurt by us in any way,Vivi be ninafwahirwa na si kwamba ninafwahirwa kwa zho murizhohuzunika hatha bule Ninafwahirwa kwa kukala yo huzuni yenu were ni huzuni imufwahizayo Mulungu mana yamuhendya mukithubu Kwa vizho k'afumwangizire hasara yoyosi
The kind of sorrow God wants makes people decide to change their lives This leads them to salvation and we cannot be sorry for that But the kind of sorrow the world has will bring death,Kwani huzuni imufwahizayo Mulungu si huzuni ya kumuhendya mut'u adziuthe mana huzuni iyo nikumuhendya mut'u akathubu na akapata wokolwi Ela huzuni ya urumwengu inareha kifwa
You had the kind of sorrow God wanted you to have Now see what that sorrow has brought you It has made you very serious It made you want to prove that you were not wrong It made you angry and afraid It made you want to see me It made you care It made you want the right thing to be done You proved that you were not guilty in any part of that problem,Vidze munaona yo huzuni imufwahizayo Mulungu zho irizhozhala maut'u madzo ndani zenu Yamuhendya mukale na chadi kibomu ndani mwenu na mudzanyese kukala ninwi k'amuna makosa kamare kahi za ut'u uwo Huzuni iyo yamuhendya mugohe na mumutsukirirwe iye ariyehenda makosa na mumwangize akili Huzuni iyo vizho yamuhendya mukale na p'ola nami na muhende chadi kahi za kuluhiro renu Na ninwi mwanyesa kukala kahi za kila ngira k'amuna makosa bule
The main reason I wrote that letter was not because of the one who did the wrong or the one who was hurt I wrote so that you would realize before God how very much you care for us,Baruwa iyo siyandhikire kwa ut'u wa ye mukosa hedu ye mukoserwa hatha Baruwa iyo namwandhikira ili kwamba cho chadi muricho nacho mbere za Mulungu dzulu zehu kikadime kuonekana lwazu kwenu
And that is what was so encouraging to us,Kwa vizho ut'u uwo be wafwangiza moyo Na dzulu za ko kwangizwa moyo kwehu fwasikira raha sana kwa viryahu Tito arizhokala na raha kwa zho ninwi nyosi murizhomuhuriza moyo
I had bragged about you to Titus and you didnt embarrass me We have always told you the truth and now what we told Titus about you has been shown to be true,Mimi nadzionya mbere za Tito kwa ut'u wenu nanwi k'amuniaibishire bule Mimi siku zosi namwambira ujeri na hatha ko kudzionya kwangu mbere za Tito nako kudzanyesa kukala ni kwa jeri
And his love for you is stronger when he remembers that you were all ready to obey You welcomed him with respect and fear,Na vivi be anakaza kumuhendza zhomu akikumbukira zho murizhomuhokera ninwi nyosi kwa woga na kuthethema na mukimusikiza
I am so happy that I can trust you fully,Vivi be nina raha sana mana nidzauya nidzamukuluhira kwa kila kit'u
And now brothers and sisters we want to tell you what Gods grace has done in the churches in Macedonia,Vikara ndugu zangu ninamala nimumanyise zho Mulungu arizhoap'a nema at'u a makanisa ga Mak'edonia
These believers have been tested by great troubles and they are very poor But their great joy caused them to be very generous in their giving,Ao majezwa kwa mateso makali ela makikaza kukala na raha be nyinji Na iyo raha yao ikiahendya makaze kukala na mioyo midzo ingahokala were ni akiya k'azhadimikika
I can tell you that they gave as much as they were able and even more than they could afford No one told them to do this It was their idea,Mimi ni shudhia kukala kwa kuhendza kwao enye malazha kulengana na wadimi wao na hatha zaidhi
But they asked us again and againthey begged us to let them share in this service for Gods people,Ao mahuvoya sana kukala nao makadime kushiriki kahi za baraka ya kuambozera wavizi at'u a Mulungu
And they gave in a way that we did not expect They gave themselves to the Lord and to us before they gave their money This is what God wants,Mahenda ut'u huriwokala hatha siswi naswi k'ahuutazamia bule Kwandza kamare madzilazha kwa Bwana gonya makidzilazha kwehu siswi kulengana na zho Mulungu ahendzazho
So we asked Titus to help you finish this special work of giving He is the one who started this work,Bai kwa kukala Tito nde ariyeandza kazi ii mbidzo ya kuambozera at'u a Mulungu fwamuvoya adze aimarigize iye kahi zenu
You are rich in everythingin faith in speaking ability in knowledge in the willingness to help and in the love you learned from us So now we want you to be rich in this work of giving too,At'u ninwi be muna kila kit'u kwa unji Kuluhiro bomu munaro kunena munako kumanya nako munako chadi cha kuhenda madzo munacho na kufuhendza nako munafuhendza zhomu Bai kwa kukala muna kila kit'u funamutazamia kukala hatha kahi za kazi ii ya mahendzo kidza mukakale na moyo wa kumboza
I am not ordering you to give but I want to see how real your love is by comparing you with others who have been so ready and willing to help,Siamba cha ni lazima muvihende ela ninamala nimupime chamba mahendzo genu ni ga jeri kwani makanisa mangine gana moyo wa kuvihenda
You know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ You know that he gave up his heavenly riches for you He gave up everything so that you could be richly blessed,Kwani ninwi munamanya yo nema ariyomup'a Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi Iye were ni mushaha sana ela akidzihendya mukiya kwa ut'u wenu ninwi Naye wahenda vivi ili kwa wo ukiyawe ninwi mukadime kuhendywa ashaha
If you want to give your gift will be accepted Your gift will be judged by what you have not by what you dont have,Kwani mut'u ariye thayari kwamboza nikumboza kiryahu aricho nacho na Mulungu nikukihokera k'adima kumboza kit'u asichokala nacho
We dont want you to have troubles while others are comforted We want everything to be equal,Siamba muavize at'u angine hatha ninwi enye mukonyeke ela naamba kukale na hali ya ukarakara
At this time you have plenty and can provide what they need Then later when they have plenty they can provide what you need Then everyone will have an equal share,Wakathi uu ninwi muna vinji kwa vizho avizeni aryahu mario k'amana Na wakathi mungine mukikala k'amuna o mana vinji nao mandamwaviza Vivi vindamuhendya mukale karakara
As the Scriptures say,Kwani Maoro ganaamba
I thank God because he gave Titus the same love for you that I have,Ela namulazhira muvera Mulungu ariyemwangiza Tito hamu ya kumuhendza ninwi dza yo niriyo nayo mimi
Titus agreed to do what we asked In fact he himself wanted very much to come see you,Kwa kukala fwamuvoya adze amulamuse naye akikubali Kidza iye mwenye kare were ana hamu zhomu na kudza kuko hatha akidza kwa kuhendza mwenye
We are sending with Titus the brother who is praised by all the churches He is praised because of his service to the Good News,Funamuhuma ndugu mungine adze hamwenga na Tito Nguma ya ndugu yuyu kahi za kuhubiri Uvoro Udzo idzaenera kahi za makanisa gosi
Also he was chosen by the churches to go with us when we carry this gift We are doing this service to bring honorto the Lord and to show that we really want to help,Na si vizho thuu iye watsagulwa ni makanisa kwamba fugwirane hosi fwende fukahirike wo wavizi Jerusalemu Kazi ii ni kazi ya mahendzo na inamup'a nguma Bwana na kunyesa zho furizho thayari kwaviza
We are being careful so that no one will criticize us about the way we are caring for this large gift,Fundakwenda hamwenga kwa kukala funahendza fudzitsundze p'ore mut'u yoyosi akafwona na kaila kahi za uimirizi wehu wa zawadi ii ya moyo mudzo
We are trying to do what is right We want to do what the Lord accepts as right and also what people think is right,Mana siswi funahendza fuhende madzo si mbere za Bwana thu ela hatha mbere za at'u
Also we are sending with them our brother who is always ready to help He has proved this to us in many ways And he wants to help even more now because he has much faith in you,Funahuma ndugu mungine adze hamwenga na ao Ndugu yuyu fwamupima kahi za ngira nyinji na kila wakathi fwamona kukala ni ndugu mwenye moyo kahi za maut'u manji Na vivi be ana moyo zaidhi kwa kukala ana uhakika nanwi zhomu
Now about Titushe is my partner He is working together with me to help you And about the other brothersthey are sent from the churches and they bring honor to Christ,Vikara kuhusu Tito ninamwambira kukala iye ni muhendzi wa kazi mwandzangu kwa ut'u wenu ninwi Ano ndugu angine o mahumwa ni makanisa na ni at'u mamureherao nguma Masihi
So show these men that you really have love Show them why we are proud of you Then all the churches can see it,Bai anyeseni mahendzo genu ili go makanisa gamanye kukala ko kudzionya kwehu dzulu zenu ni kwa jeri
I really dont need to write to you about this help for Gods people,Mimi be tha siona haja ya kumwandhikira dzulu za kuambozera wavizi Amasihia andziyenu kuko Jerusalemu
I know that you want to help I have been bragging about you to the people in Macedonia I told them that you people in Achaia have been ready to give since last year And your desire to give has made most of the people here ready to give also,kwani ninamanya mu thayari kare Hatha najaliwa ni kudzionya kwa ut'u wenu mbere za at'u a Mak'edonia nikiamba At'u a Akaia makala thayari kumboza hangu mwaka dzana Na iyo hamu yenu ya kumboza ndo iriyoahendya anji ao makale thayari kumboza
But I am sending these brothers to you I dont want our bragging about you in this to be for nothing I want you to be ready just as I said you would be,Ela nidzaahuma aa ndugu ili kwamba madze mahakikishe kukala mu thayari jeri na wo wavizi wenu here nirizhoamba p'ore nikakala nadzionya kwa ut'u wenu bule
If any of those from Macedonia come with me and they find that you are not ready we will be ashamed We will be ashamed that we were so sure of you And you will be ashamed too,Nahenda vivi kwa kukala indakala aibu bomu kwehu siswi na zaidhi sana kwenu ninwi kala nindakudza na at'u a Mak'edonia gonya fudze fumone kukala k'amu thayari dza zho nirizhonena kwa uhakika
So I thought that I should ask these brothers to come there before we do They will help in getting together the generous gift you promised Then it will be ready when we come and it will be seen as a blessing you are giving not as something you were forced to do,Kwa ut'u uwo wenye bai naona ni muhimu niavoye aa ndugu mathangulie ili madze mathayarishe kimbere cho kigerwa chenu muricholaga kukala mundamboza Nahenda vivi ili cho kigerwa kisikale cha lazima ela kikale ni cha kuhendza enye
Remember this The one who plants few seeds will have a small harvest But the one who plants a lot will have a big harvest,Ela kumbukirani kukala alayaye vichache andavuna vichache Na alayaye kwa unji andavuna vinji
Each one of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give You should not give if it makes you unhappy or if you feel forced to give God loves those who are happy to give,Kila mut'u naamboze kulengana na zho adzizhopanga moyoni mwakwe Usimboze na huzuni hedu kwa kulazimishwa kwa kukala Mulungu ahendza mut'u ambozaye kwa furaha
And God can give you more blessings than you need and you will always have plenty of everything You will have enough to give to every good work,Na Mulungu ana wadimi wa kumup'a ninwi zaidhi ya zho mumalazho kwamba siku zosi mukale na vit'u zha kuthosha Na vivi vindamuhendya mudime kumboza kwa unji kwa ut'u wa kila kazi mbidzo
As the Scriptures say,Kwani Maoro ganaamba kukala
God is the one who gives seed to those who plant and he gives bread for food And God will give you spiritual seed and make that seed grow He will produce a great harvest from your goodness,Bai Mulungu ariye nde amup'aye muk'urima mbeyu kidza nde amup'aye chakurya andamup'a ninwi mbeyu na aizhaze ili kwamba mavuno ga uhachi wenu gakaze kukala manji
God will make you rich in every way so that you can always give freely And your giving through us will make people give thanks to God,Iye andamuthajirisha kwa kila kit'u ili mudime kukaza kukala na mioyo midzo ya kumboza ili wakathi fuhalaho vigerwa zhenu na kuahirikira at'u angine ao makadime kumulazhira muvera Mulungu
The service you are offering helps Gods people with their needs but that is not all it does It is also bringing more and more thanks to God,Kwani huduma ii ya kumboza indaaviza Amasihia andziyenu kuko Jerusalemu gonya iahendye mamulazhire muvera munji Mulungu
This service is a proof of your faith and people will praise God because of it They will praise God that you freely share what you have with them and with all people They will praise him to see you following the Good News about Christ that you openly accepted They will praise God because you freely share with them and with all people,Kwamboza kwenu kwa mioyo midzo kwao ao na kwa at'u angine kundanyesa kukala wo Uvoro Udzo wa Masihi be munauthuwa jeri si kwa maneno thu ela hatha kwa mahendo Na vivi vindamup'a nguma Mulungu
And when they pray they will wish they could be with you They will feel this way because of the great grace that God gave you,Na kwa ut'u uwo ao mandamuvoyera kwa mahendzo manji kwa yo nema nyinji ariyo Mulungu wamujalia ninwi
Thanks be to God for his gift that is too wonderful to describe,Mulungu naagerwe muvera kwa kigerwache kibomu kisicho na mwandziwe
I wish you would be patient with me even when I am a little foolish But you are already patient with me,Nikahendza kukala munivumirire vichache ninene wo uzuzu wangu Hatha kwandza munanivumirira kare
I am jealous for you with a jealousy that comes from God I promised to give you to Christ He must be your only husband I want to give you to Christ to be his pure bride,Kwani mimi be nina wivu nanwi ela wivu uu ni wa kimulungu Ninwi namuhendya mulolwe na nimulazhe here musichana kwa mulume mumwenga Masihi
But I am afraid that your minds will be led away from your true and pure following of Christ This could happen just as Eve was tricked by that snake with his clever lies,Maazo genu ninwi kwa Masihi nigakale maeri na ga ujeri Ela ninaona kukala mundangamizwa ngira hatha wo uaminifu wenu kwa Masihi muuriche dza zho nyoka arizhomungamiza ngira Hawa kwa ulachuwe
You seem to be quite patient with anyone who comes to you and tells you about a Jesus that is different from the Jesus we told you about You seem very willing to accept a spirit or a message that is different from the Spirit and message that you received from us,Mana ninaona kukala kila mut'u andiyekudza kwenu nwi munamukuluhira thu Akadzahubiri Masihi tofauti na ye furiyemuhubiri hedu akadzahubiri dzulu za Roho tofauti na ye muriyemuhokera hedu akadzahubiri uvoro tofauti na uwo muriwoukuluhira nwi munamuhokera thu
I dont think that those super apostles are any better than I am,Siona kukala ao madziihao ahumwi abomu be ni abomu kahi za chochosi kunikira mimi
It is true that I am not a trained speaker but I do have knowledge We have shown this to you clearly in every way,Hangine nadima kukala simanya kunena ela kumanya ninamanya Na ut'u uu nidzamwanyesa kahi za kila ngira na kwa kila kit'u
I did the work of telling Gods Good News to you without pay I humbled myself to make you important Do you think that was wrong,Mimi nadzitharamusha ili ninwi mukadime kwanulwa mana nahubiri Uvoro Udzo wa Mulungu kwenu ninwi bule bila kurifwa chochosi Vidze kwa kuhenda zho nere nahenda dambi
I accepted pay from other churches I took their money so that I could serve you,Mimi nakubali kuhokera wavizi kula kwa makanisa mangine na kwa ngira iyo naahoka vit'u zhao ili nimuhumikire ninwi
If I needed something when I was with you I did not trouble any of you The brothers who came from Macedonia gave me all that I needed I did not allow myself to be a burden to you in any way And I will never be a burden to you,Wakathi nirihokala sina kit'u kuko kwenu simalire wavizi wowosi kula kwenu ndugu a Mak'edonia ndo marionirehera kila nirichokimala Nahenda vivi ili nisimubagaze muzigo wowosi Na kidza sindamubagaza muzigo wowosi kwa ngira yoyosi
No one there in Achaia will stop me from boasting about that I say this with the truth of Christ in me,Na here ujeri wa Masihi urizho ndani mwangu nindaenderera kudzionya namuna iyo na k'akuna mut'u andeninyamaza kahi za jimbo ra Akaia
And why do I not burden you Do you think it is because I dont love you God knows that I love you,Sinena vivi kwa kukala simwendzi Mulungu mwenye anamanya kukala ninwi ninamuhendza
And I will continue doing what I am doing now because I want to stop those people from having a reason to boast They would like to say that the work they boast about is the same as ours,Na vivi nihendazho be nindaenderera kuvihenda ili ao mamalao nafasi ya kudzionya kukala manahenda kazi dza ii yehu masiipate kamare
They are false apostles lying workers They only pretend to be apostles of Christ,At'u dza ao manakenga at'u kukala manahenda kazi ya Masihi ela ni alongo Manadzihendya kukala ni ahumwi a Masihi ela si ahumwi bule
That does not surprise us because even Satan changes himself to look like an angel of light,Na iyo si ajabu mana hatha Shethani naye nikudzihendya malaika wa mulangaza
So it does not surprise us if Satans servants make themselves look like servants who work for what is right But in the end those people will get the punishment they deserve,Kwa vizho si ajabu ahumiki a kwakwe nao makidzihendya ahumiki a hachi Ela mwisho mandarifwa karakara na mahendo gao
I tell you again No one should think that I am a fool But if you think I am a fool then accept me as you would accept a fool Then I can boast a little too,Ninanena kaheri Mut'u asinihalire kukala ni muzuzu bule Na hatha kala vizho ndo muonazho kidza nihalirani vizho ili nami nipate nafasi ya kudzionya ngaa
But I am not talking the way the Lord would talk I am boasting like a fool,Kudzionya kuku nikunenako haha ninakunena here mut'u muzuzu si kukala vizho ndo Bwana ahendzazho
Others are boasting about their lives in the world So I will boast too,Ela kwa kukala at'u anji nikudzionya kwa vit'u zha kibinadamu hatha mimi nami nadzionya
You are wise so you will gladly be patient with fools,Vidze nwi alachu mbona munafwahirwa ni kuavumirira at'u azuzu
I say this because you are even patient with someone who forces you to do things and uses you You are patient with those who trick you or think they are better than you or hit you in the face,At'u manamuhendya here kwamba mu atumwa manamuhoka vit'u zhenu zhosi manamukenga manadzikulula mbere zenu manamuvudhya kidza nwi munaavumirira thu
I am ashamed to say it but we were too weak to do such things to you,Nina haya kunena kukala siswi were k'ahuna nguvu ya kumuhendera ninwi maut'u dza gago
Are those people Hebrews So am I Are they Israelites So am I Are they from Abrahams family So am I,Kala ao ni Aeburania hatha mimi nami ni Mueburania Kala ao ni Aiziraeli hatha mimi nami ni Muiziraeli Kala manambola lukolo lwa Burahemu hatha mimi nami ninambola lukolo lulo
Are they serving Christ I am serving him more I am crazy to talk like this I have worked much harder than they have I have been in prison more often I have been hurt more in beatings I have been near death many times,Kala ao ni ahumiki a Masihi be mimi ni zaidhi Ninanena here mut'u wa vilalu Kala ni kazi nahenda nyinji zaidhi Kala ni kufungwa nafungwa k'ana nyinji zaidhi Kala nikupigwa napigwa k'ana nyinji zaidhi Kala ni kumala kwalagwa namala kwalagwa k'ana nyinji
Five times the Jews have given me their punishment of 39 lashes with a whip,Dzafisha k'ana ts'ano kupigwa viryahu vibok'o zha Ayahudi mirongo mine kuira kimwenga
Three different times I was beaten with rods One time I was almost killed with rocks Three times I was in ships that were wrecked and one of those times I spent the night and the next day in the sea,Napigwa midhath'a k'ana t'ahu nikipigwa mawe lumwenga nikibandikirwa ni meli k'ana t'ahu Namanya kukala baharini kwa usiku mumwenga na mutsana mumwenga
In my constant traveling I have been in danger from rivers from thieves from my own people and from people who are not Jews I have been in danger in cities in places where no one lives and on the sea And I have been in danger from people who pretend to be believers but are not,Na kahi za zharo vinji nidzizhokwenda nidzakala nichangira hatharini k'ana nyinji Hathari za miho za ahoki za Ayahudi andzangu na at'u mario si Ayahudi Hathari za midzi mibomu na za nyika hathari za baharini na hathari za at'u madzihendyao kukala ni ndugu kahi za Masihi
I have done hard and tiring work and many times I did not sleep I have been hungry and thirsty Many times I have been without food I have been cold and without clothes,Nidzahenda kazi kwa thabu namanya kuchesa matso kukala na ndzala na k'ihu namanya kufunga namanya kupigwa ni p'eho na kukala na wira
And there are many other problems One of these is the care I have for all the churches I worry about each group of believers every day,Na dzulu ya maut'u mangine gosi muzigo wa kutsundza makanisa gosi nawo siku zosi were unanilola mimi
I feel weak every time another person is weak I feel deeply upset every time another person is led into sin,Ni h'ani adimaye kukala munyonge bila mimi kusikira unyonge uwo Ni h'ani adimaye kwangizwa dambini bila mimi kusha moyo
If I must boast I will boast about the things that show I am weak,Nikikala nindadzionya be nindadzionya dzulu za go maut'u ganyesago unyonge wangu
God knows that I am not lying He is the God and Father of the Lord Jesus and he is to be praised forever,Iye Mulungu na Baba wa Bwana Jesu iye aviryaye kulikwa hatha kare na kare anamanya kukala mimi ninanena ujeri
When I was in Damascus the governor under King Aretas wanted to arrest me so he put guards around the city,Nirihokala mudzi wa Damesiki luwali ariyekala ts'ini za muthawali Areta waniimirira kahi za mivirya ya wo mudzi ili anigwire
But some friends put me in a basket Then they put the basket through a hole in the wall and lowered me down So I escaped from the governor,Ela nathiya k'anigwirire bule Nangizwa k'ahuni nikimbozwa na dhirisha ririrokala kahi za wo ukuta wa mudzi nikitharamushwa ko ndze
There is more that I have to say about myself It wont help but I will talk now about visions and revelations from the Lord,Nindadzionya ingahokala kudzionya k'akuna faidha yoyosi Ela vivi nindanena dzulu za maono na ugunulo arionanyesa Bwana
I know a manin Christ who was taken up to the third heaven This happened 14 years ago I dont know if the man was in his body or out of his body but God knows,Ninamumanya Mumasihia mumwenga ariyenulwa hatha sehemu ya hahu ya mulunguni miaka kumi na mine idziyokira Kala were a kahi za mwiri hedu kala were a kahi za Roho mino sigamanya Mulungu nde amanyaye
I will boast about a man like that but I will not boast about myself I will boast only about my weaknesses,Dzulu za mut'u dza iye ninadima kudzionya Ela mimi mwenye kare sidima kudzionya isihokala kwa unyonge wangu thu
But if I wanted to say more about myself I would not be a fool because I would be telling the truth But I wont say any more because I dont want people to think more of me than what they see me do or hear me say,Hatha nikakala nahendza kudzionya kidza si muzuzu bule mana nindakala ninanena wo ujeri Ela kwa kukala ts'endzi mut'u yoyosi anihalire zaidhi ya zho anonazho hedu anisikirazho sindadzionya bule
But I must not be too proud of the wonderful things that were shown to me So a painful problemwas given to mean angel from Satan sent to make me suffer so that I would not think that I am better than anyone else,Ela ili kwamba gaga maut'u mabomu nirigogunulirwa gasinihendye nikamera kinundu nagwizwa mwiya kahi za mwiri wangu Mwiya uu ni mujumbe wa Shethani ili kwamba anisirinye p'ore nikadzanula zhomu
I begged the Lord three times to take this problem away from me,Namuvoya Bwana k'ana t'ahu mwiya uu unambole
But the Lord said My grace is all you need Only when you are weak can everything be done completely by my power So I will gladly boast about my weaknesses Then Christs power can stay in me,ela akinamba kukala Nema yangu inakuthosha mana nguvu zangu zikamilika kahi za unyonge Kwa vizho ninafwahirwa zhomu ni kudzionyera unyonge wangu ili kwamba nguvu za Masihi zikakale dzulu zangu
Yes I am glad to have weaknesses if they are for Christ I am glad to be insulted and have hard times I am glad when I am persecuted and have problems because it is when I am weak that I am really strong,Kwa vizho ni radhi kukala munyonge kuhukanwa kupata thabu kuteswa na kupata mashaka kwa ut'u wa Masihi Mana nikikala ni munyonge ndo nikukala nina nguvu
I have been talking like a fool but you made me do it You people are the ones who should say good things about me I am worth nothing but those super apostles are not worth any more than I am,Mimi be nidzakala muzuzu na murionilazimisha nikale muzuzu ni ninwi Yo karakara be were ni ninwi munilike ela nwi k'amuvihendere Ee mino si kit'u kamwe ela o ahumwi enu abomu manishinda na noni
When I was with you I patiently did the things that prove I am an apostlesigns wonders and miracles,Mivano ya kunyesa kukala mimi ni muhumwi jeri yahendeka kahikahi zenu kahi za kuvumirira kosi Mivano ii yanyeswa kwa ngira ya miujiza na kwa maut'u mangine garigohendeka kwa nguvu za Mulungu
So you received everything that the other churches have received Only one thing was different I was not a burden to you Forgive me for this,Ut'u umwenga h'akeye nirio simuhenderere ela makanisa mangine nagahendera ni kumutegemea kwa mahitaji gangu Nisamehani kwa kosa riro
I am now ready to visit you for the third time and I will not be a burden to you I dont want any of the things you own I only want you Children should not have to save things to give to their parents Parents should save to give to their children,Vivi ni thayari kamare kudza ko kwenu mara ya hahu Na ts'endzi nidze nikale muzigo kwenu mana simala mali zenu ela ninamumala ninwi enye Kwani ahoho k'amavirya kuaikira akiba azhazi ao ela azhazi ndo maviryao kuaikira akiba ahoho ao
So I am happy to give everything I have for you I will even give myself for you If I love you more will you love me less,Ndo mimi nindafwahirwa zhomu kuhumika mimi mwenye na kuhumira vit'u zhangu kwa ut'u wa roho zenu Vidze nikikala ninamuhendza zhomu vino mino sivirya kuhendzwa dza vizho nami
It is clear that I was not a burden to you but you think that I was tricky and used lies to catch you,H'aya navikale kukala sikalire muzigo kwenu ela namupata kwa kumukenga na wo ulachu niriwo nawo here muambazho
Did I cheat you by using any of the men I sent to you You know I didnt,Vidze ni h'ani niriyemuhuma adze amuhoke vit'u zhenu anirehere
I asked Titus to go to you and I sent our brother with him Titus did not cheat you did he No you know that his actions and his attitude were the same as ours,Nirihomwamba Tito adze amulamuse namugwizanya iye na ndugu mungine makidza Na nina hakika kukala Tito k'amuhokere chochosi bule Mana iye fwanenda kahi za Roho mumwenga na mwendo wehu nawo were ni mumwenga
Do you think that we have been defending ourselves to you all this time No we say these things in Christ and before God You are our dear friends and everything we do is to make you stronger,Hangine munadima kuona kukala wakathi uu wosi fudzakala fukidzihehera kwenu Hatha bule Maut'u gaga huganenago hunaganena kahi za Masihi na mbere za Mulungu Na kila kit'u funakihenda kwa kumujenga ninwi ahendzwi
I do this because I am afraid that when I come you will not be what I want you to be And I am afraid that I will not be what you want me to be I am afraid that I will find arguing jealousy anger selfish fighting evil talk gossip pride and confusion there,Ninagoha k'ai nikidza kwenu nindakudza nimuthekeze kahi za hali iriyo k'aindanifwahiza na hangine ninwi nanwi k'amundafwahizwa ni zho nindizhoihalira hali iyo Ninagoha kukala hangine nadima kudzathekeza kunenezana kidzitso kutsukizana kudzihendza enye kunenana vii nyambo kudzionya na fujo
I am afraid that when I come to you again my God will make me humble before you I may have to cry over the loss of some who sinned before Many of them have still not changed their hearts to be sorry for their evil lives their sexual sins and the shameful things they have done,Ninagoha kukala nindihokudza kaheri kuko kwenu Mulungu wangu andanitharamusha mbere zenu na niaririre anji a aryahu mariohenda ukolo na uzindzi na th'amaa mbii hangu kapindi na hatha vivi kidza k'amadzathubu bule
Greetings from Paul an apostle I was chosen to be an apostle but not by any group or person here on earth My authority came from none other than Jesus Christ and God the Father who raised Jesus from death,Bai nema na dheri kula kwa Mulungu Baba na Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi navikale kwenu
Greetings also from all those in Gods family who are with me,Jesu Masihi wahenda kudzilazha mwenye afwe kwa ut'u wa dambi zehu Naye wahenda vivi ili afwamboze kula kahi za uthiriri wa urumwengu uu Vivi wavihenda kwa kukala vizho ndizho Mulungu Babiyehu arizhokala wapanga
I pray that God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ will be good to you and give you peace,Bai iye Mulungu naagerwe nguma hatha kare na kare H'aami
Jesus gave himself for our sins to free us from this evil world we live in This is what God our Father wanted,Ninwi be munanishangaza sana Dzuzi haha be munamuricha kare iye ariyemwiha muishi kahi za nema ya Masihi na munathuwa uvoro mungine wenye
The glory belongs to God forever and ever Amen,Si kwamba kuna Uvoro Udzo mungine ela kuna at'u mario manamubudzya akili kwa kumala kuugaluza uwo Uvoro Udzo wa Masihi
A short time ago God chose you to follow him He chose you through his grace that came through Christ But now I am amazed that you are already turning away and believing something different from the Good News we told you,Ela hatha siswi hedu malaika kula mulunguni akadzamwambiriza uvoro mungine mbali na uwo Uvoro Udzo furiomwambiriza naalaniwe kare na kare
There is no other message that is the Good News but some people are confusing you They want to change the Good News about Christ,Gaga fwamwambiriza kare haho nyuma-nyuma ela bai ninagauyira kaheri Mut'u yoyosi akimwambiriza uvoro mungine mbali na uwo Uvoro Udzo muriwouhokera naalaniwe kare na kare
We told you the true Good News message So anyone who tells you a different message should be condemnedeven if its one of us or even an angel from heaven,Nikinena vivi be namala kumufwahiza Mulungu h'akeye simala kumufwahiza mwanadamu bule Mana kalaho nichere kumala kumufwahiza mwanadamu be ngere si muhumiki wa Masihi bule
I said this before Now I say it again You have already accepted the Good News Anyone who tells you another way to be saved should be condemned,Mana namala mumanye ndugu zangu kukala uwo Uvoro Udzo niriokudzamwambiriza mimi kuko kwenu be k'autungirwe ni mudamu bule
Now do you think I am trying to make people accept me No God is the one I am trying to please Am I trying to please people If I wanted to please people I would not be a servant of Christ,Siugererwe hedu kuufundishwa ni mut'u yoyosi ela naupata kukirira kwa ugunulo wa Jesu Masihi
Brothers and sisters I want you to know that the Good News message I told you was not made up by anyone,Ninwi mwasikira vizho nirizhokala nikiishi wakathi nirihokala ni kahi za dini ya Kiyahudi Mut'u mimi nakala nikiritesa sana ro kanisa ra Mulungu Najeza here nirizhodima nihakikishe kukala nidzaralaga
I did not get my message from any other human The Good News is not something I learned from other people Jesus Christ himself gave it to me He showed me the Good News that I should tell people,Ayahudi anji murika wangu were k'amanifika bule kahi za kuthuwa dini ya Kiyahudi Mut'u mimi were nina chadi sana na maadha ga akare ehu
You have heard about my past life in the Jewish religion I persecuted the church of God very much I tried to destroy his people,Ela bai Mulungu were wanithenga k'anda hangu mumo ndanini mwa m'ama na kwa nemaye akiniha nimuhumikire
I was becoming a leader in the Jewish religion I did better than most other Jews my own age I tried harder than anyone else to follow the traditions we got from our ancestors,Bai akiona ni vidzo ananyese iye Mwanawe Naye wananyesa iye Mwanawe ili niambirize at'u mario si Ayahudi Uvoro Udzo dzulu za kwakwe Vikara iye Mulungu arihohenda vizho senderemala mashauri kwa mut'u
But God had special plans for me even before I was born So he chose me through his grace,na sendere kuko Jerusalemu kwendaonana na aryahu at'u mariokala ahumwi mbere zangu Kit'u nirichohenda ni kwamba nauka mara mwenga nichenda Warabuni na badaye nikiuya Damesiki
It pleased him to let me see and know his Son so that I could tell the Good News about him to the nonJewish people I immediately prepared to do this work without asking for advice or help from anyone,Nakwenda Jerusalemu bada ya miaka mihahu kukira Lengo ra kwenda kuko were ni nikamanyane na K'efat'ot'ot'o Bai nirihofika kuko nakala na K'efa kwa muda wa siku kumi na ts'ano
I did not go to Jerusalem to see those who were apostles before I was But without waiting I went away to Arabia Later I went back to the city of Damascus,Na kuko sionere muhumwi mungine yoyosi isihokala iye K'efa na Jakobu nduguye Bwana Jesu
Three years later I went to Jerusalem to meet Peter I stayed with him 15 days,Gaga nigandhikago si ga ulongo bule ni ga ujeri hatha iye Mulungu ni shudhia
I met no other apostlesonly James the brother of the Lord,Badaye nirihombola kuko Jerusalemu nakwenda kahi za jimbo ra Siria na ra Kilikia
God knows there is nothing untrue in any of this,Wakathi uwo go makanisa ga Masihi kahi za riro jimbo ra Judea were k'agadzanona bule
Later I went to the areas of Syria and Cilicia,Hatha were manahenda kusikira na at'u kukala Yuyahu mwanamulume ariyekala akifutesa be vivi adzauya anaambiriza at'u dzulu za riro kuluhiro ut'u ariwo were anamala kuwalaga kamare
No one in any of Christs churches in Judea had ever met me before,Kwa vizho makimulika Mulungu kwa ut'u wangu
They had only heard this about me This man was persecuting us But now he is telling people about the same faith that he once tried to destroy,Bai bada ya miaka kumi na mine nakwenda Jerusalemu kaheri Charo kiki nakwenda na Barinaba Furihokala funenda fwamuhala Tito fuchenda hosi
These believers praised God because of me,Kuko Jerusalemu nakwenda kwa kukala Mulungu were wanigunulira nende kuko Vikara nirihofika kuko naavuha k'anda aryahu marioambwa ndo vilongozi a kanisa na fukisumurira Nikiaeleza lwazu uryahu Uvoro Udzo niuhubirio at'u mario si Ayahudi Nahenda vivi ili iryahu kazi niriyohenda na niriyo nichere kuihenda hatha vivi isikale ya kihuhu bule
Titus who was with me is a Greek But these leaders still did not force him to be circumcised,Na were funa Tito mut'u ariye si Muyahudi ni Muyunani ela o vilongozi k'amaambire Chaa suthi angizwe lwembeni
We needed to talk about these problems because some who pretended to be our brothers had come into our group secretly They came in like spies to find out about the freedom we have in Christ Jesus They wanted to make us slaves,Uvoro uwo wa kwangizwa lwembeni wakudza na at'u mariodzihendya kukala ni ndugu na makidzangiza kahikahi zehu kisiri Lengo rao were ni kuchunguza na kuhunongera uhuru wehu furio nao kahi za Masihi Jesu na mafuhendye atumwa a Sheria ya Kiyahudi
but we did not agree with anything those false brothers wanted We wanted the truth of the Good News to continue for you,Bai gago gao k'afugakubalire hatha vichache mana were funahendza uwo ujeri wa Uvoro Udzo uenderere kukala nanwi
Those men who were considered to be important did not change the Good News message I tell people It doesnt matter to me if they were important or not To God everyone is the same,Hatha ao at'u mario manaambwa ni vilongozi kidza k'amangezere chochosi zaidhi ya gago nifundishago Na chamba ni vilongozi a namuna yani mino gago k'aganithethenya Mana Mulungu k'aamba mut'u ni mudzo hedu si mudzo kwa kumulola kwa uso
But these leaders saw that God had given me a special work the same as Peter God gave Peter the work of telling the Good News to the Jews But God gave me the work of telling the Good News to the nonJewish people,Bai ao mamanya kukala Mulungu wanip'a kazi ya kuhubiri Uvoro Udzo kwa o at'u mario si Ayahudi dza viryahu arizhomup'a P'et'ero kazi ya kuhubiri Uvoro Udzo kwa Ayahudi
God gave Peter the power to work as an apostle for the Jewish people God gave me the power to work as an apostle too but for those who are not Jews,Mana iye Mulungu ariyehenda kazi na P'et'ero kahi za kaziye ya uhumwi kwa Ayahudi nde iye ariyehenda kazi nami kahi za uhumwi wangu kwa at'u mario si Ayahudi
James Peter and John seemed to be the leaders And they saw that God had given me this special gift of ministry so they accepted Barnabas and me They said to us We agree that you should go to those who are not Jews and we will go to the Jews,Ndo o ano Jakobu K'efa na Johana mario were manaambwa ndo vilongozi abomu makifuunga mukono mimi na Barinaba mana maona viryahu Mulungu arizhonip'a kazi ii ya mana Kwa vizho fukikubaliana kukala ao maahubiri Ayahudi sino swi fuahubiri at'u mario si Ayahudi
They asked us to do only one thingto remember to help those who are poor And this was something that I really wanted to do,Kit'u marichofuvoya ni kwamba fusiasahau o ndugu masikini kuko Jerusalemu Nami kicho be were ni kit'u ambacho ni thayari sana kukihenda
When Peter came to Antioch he did something that was not right I stood against him because he was wrong,Vikara K'efa arihokala adzire kuko Anitiokia namuchemera mbere za at'u mana wakala anahenda maut'u garigo si karakara
This is what happened When Peter first came to Antioch he ate and associated with the nonJewish people But when some Jewish men came from James Peter separated himself from the nonJews He stopped eating with them because he was afraid of the Jews who believe that all nonJewish people must be circumcised,Wakathi arihokala adzire kuko wakala akirya chakurya na ndugu mario si Ayahudi Ela siku mwenga kurihokala kudzire at'u mariokala madzahumwa ni Jakobu K'efa wadzithenga akikala k'arya nao kaheri Na wahenda vivi kwa kukala were anaagoha o Ayahudi mariokala manaamba kukala ndugu mario si Ayahudi suthi mangizwe lwembeni
So Peter was a hypocrite The other Jewish believers joined with him so they were hypocrites too Even Barnabas was influenced by what these Jewish believers did,Bai aryahu ndugu a Kiyahudi marihoona viryahu ao nao makidzangiza kahi za kuko kudzihendya kwa K'efa vivi zhamuhendya Barinaba naye achangira kahi za ko kudzihendya kwao
They were not following the truth of the Good News When I saw this I spoke to Peter in front of everyone I said Peter you are a Jew but you dont live like one You live like someone who is not a Jew So why are you trying to force those who are not Jewish to live like Jews,Vikara nirihoona vizho mahendazho k'avithuwana na uwo ujeri wa Uvoro Udzo nikimuchemera ye K'efa mbere zao osi Nikiamba Uwe u Muyahudi ela ko k'uishi here Muyahudi unaishi here mut'u ariye si Muyahudi H'aya vikara una hachi yani kualazimisha at'u mario si Ayahudi maishi here Ayahudi
We are Jews by birth We were not born sinners as we call those who are not Jews,Siswi fwazhalwa Ayahudi na k'ahudziona kukala hu adambi dza here huaonazho at'u mario si Ayahudi
But we know that no one is made right with God by following the law It is trusting inJesus Christ that makes a person right with God So we have put our faith in Christ Jesus because we wanted to be made right with God And we are right with him because we trusted inChristnot because we followed the law I can say this because no one can be made right with God by following the law,Ela hatha vizho funamanya kukala mut'u akimukuluhira Jesu Masihi ndizho anahendywa muhachi si kwa kuthuwa Sheria ya Kiyahudi Ndosa hatha siswi fwamukuluhira Masihi Jesu ili kukirira na iye Masihi fuhendywe ahachi Kwa kukala k'akuna mudamu adimaye kuhendywa muhachi kwa kuthuwa Sheria
We Jews came to Christ to be made right with God so it is clear that we were sinners too Does this mean that Christ makes us sinners Of course not,Vikara chamba kuko kumukuluhira Masihi afuhendye ahachi be vinafuhendya fuonewe ni at'u kukala fu adambi vidze yuno Masihi ni muhumiki wa dambi Hatha bule
But I would be wrong to begin teaching again those things that I gave up,Bai vit'u virizho nagonya kuvibanda-banda gonya nikwache kuvijenga lusha nindakala ninanyesa lwazu kukala ninahenda dambi jeri
It was the law itself that caused me to end my life under the law I died to the law so that I could live for God I have been nailed to the cross with Christ,Kwani mimi nakala nikiithuwa sana yo Sheria ela nikidzaifwerera ili maisha gangu nimuishire Mulungu
So I am not the one living nowit is Christ living in me I still live in my body but I live by faith inthe Son of God He is the one who loved me and gave himself to save me,Mimi nami nasulubiwa na Masihi kwa vizho vivi mimi simi niishiye kaheri ni iye Masihi nde aishiye ndani mwangu Na gago maisha nigaishigo vivi be ninagaishi kwa kumukuluhira iye Mwana wa Mulungu Iye wanihendza zhomu hatha akidzilazha alagwe kwa ut'u wa mimi
I am not the one destroying the meaning of Gods grace If following the law is how people are made right with God then Christ did not have to die,Na yo nema ya Mulungu sidima kuikahala bule Kwani kalaho mut'u anahendywa muhachi kwa kuthuwa Sheria ya Kiyahudi be ngere iye Masihi wafwa bule
You people in Galatia are so foolish Why do I say this Because I told you very clearly about the death of Jesus Christ on the cross But now it seems as though you have let someone use their magical powers to make you forget,H'enwi Agalatia azuzu Ni h'ani ariyemuloga Ye Jesu Masihi be waelezwa lwazu-lwazu kwenu kidza mbere za kila mut'u kukala iye wasulubiwa kwa ut'u wenu
Tell me this one thing How did you receive the Spirit Did you receive the Spirit by following the law No you received the Spirit because you heard the message about Jesus and believed it,Namala nimuze kit'u kimwenga Ye Roho mwamuhokera kwa kukala were munathuwa Sheria ya Kiyahudi hedu mwamuhokera kukirira na Uvoro Udzo muriwombirizwa na mukiukuluhira
You began your life in Christ with the Spirit Now do you try to complete it by your own power That is foolish,Yani mu azuzu namuna iyo nwi Mwaandza t'ot'ot'o kumusikira Roho Mweri vino munamala kumarigiza kwa nguvu zenu enye
You have experienced many things Were all those experiences wasted I hope they were not wasted,Vikara zo thabu zosi murizopata were ni za kihuhu Naona were si za kihuhu bule
Does God give you the Spirit because you follow the law Does God work miracles among you because you follow the law No God gives you his Spirit and works miracles among you because you heard the message about Jesus and believed it,Kwa vizho Mulungu wamup'a Roho Mweri na akihenda miujiza kahi zenu kwa kukala mwaukuluhira uwo Uvoro Udzo muriwombirizwa si kwa kukala were munathuwa Sheria
The Scriptures say the same thing about Abraham Abraham believed God and because of this faith he was accepted as one who is right with God,Muloleni mut'u here Burahemu Burahemu wamukuluhira Mulungu na kwa ut'u uwo Mulungu akimuhendya muhachi
So you should know that the true children of Abraham are those who have faith,Kwa vizho manyani kukala aryahu mario manamukuluhira Mulungu be ndo ana a Burahemu jeri
The Scriptures told what would happen in the future These writings said that God would make the nonJewish people right through their faith God told this Good News to Abraham before it happened God said to Abraham I will use you to bless all the people on earth,Maoro ganena kimbere kukala aryahu at'u mario si Ayahudi makikuluhira Mulungu andaahendya ahachi Gago Maoro ganena Uvoro Udzo kwa Burahemu gakiamba Kukirira kwako makabila gosi gandahaswa
Abraham believed this and because he believed he was blessed All people who believe are blessed the same as Abraham was,Kwa vizho aryahu at'u mario manamukuluhira Mulungu ni kuhaswa hamwenga na Burahemu mut'u ariyekala anamukuluhira Mulungu
But people who depend on following the law to make them right are under a curse As the Scriptures say They must do everything that is written in the law If they do not always obey they are under a curse,Bai at'u osini mario manaitegemea yo Sheria be malaniwa Kwani Maoro ganaamba kukala Mut'u ariye k'andaenderera kugathuwa gosi gago garigondhikwa kahi za yo Sheria ya Musa walaniwa
So it is clear that no one can be made right with God by the law The Scriptures say The one who is right with God by faith will live forever,Vikara vi lwazu kukala iyo Sheria be k'aidima kumuhendya mut'u yoyosi akakala muhachi mbere za Mulungu kwa kukala Maoro ganaamba Mut'u muhachi andaishi kwa kuluhiro
The law does not depend on faith No it says that the only way a person will find life by the law is to obey its commands,Iyo Sheria be k'aina uhusiano wowosi na kuluhiro Ela hat'uhe Maoro ganaamba Ahendaye gago ga Sheria andaishi kahi za gago ga Sheria
The law says we are under a curse for not always obeying it But Christ took away that curse He changed places with us and put himself under that curse The Scriptures say Anyone who is hung on a treeis under a curse,Ela iye Masihi wafukombola kula kwa iyo lana ya Sheria naye wafukombola kwa kuihala iye yo lana Mana Maoro ganaamba Mut'u yoyosi agozhwaye muhini walaniwa
Because of what Jesus Christ did the blessing God promised to Abraham was given to all people Christ died so that by believing in him we could have the Spirit that God promised,Kwa vizho Masihi Jesu arihofukombola wahenda garyahu madzo-madzo arigo Mulungu wamulaga Burahemu gadime kugerwa aryahu at'u mario si Ayahudi nao Na pia kwa kukuluhira siswi fudime kumuhokera ye Roho Mweri furiyemulagwa ni Mulungu
Brothers and sisters let me give you an example from everyday life Think about an agreement that one person makes with another After that agreement is made official no one can stop it or add anything to it and no one can ignore it,Ndugu zangu tharizani nihumire mufano muumanyao At'u makiika kilagane na makindhikishirana be k'akuna adimaye kukibanda cho kilagane hedu kuchangeza na ut'u ungine Bai vizho ndizho virizho hatha na kilagane cha Mulungu
God made promises to Abraham and his DescendantThe Scripture does not say and to your descendants That would mean many people But it says and to your Descendant That means only one and that one is Christ,Mulungu waika ahadi na Burahemu na mut'u wa lukololwe Maoro k'agaamba kukala Mulungu waika ahadi na Burahemu na at'u a lukololwe yani at'u anji Hatha Ganaamba Mut'u wa lukololwe ambaye mut'u yuyu ni mumwenga na ni iye Masihi
This is what I mean The agreement that God gave to Abraham was made official long before the law came The law came 430 years later So the law could not take away the agreement and change Gods promise,Bai nimalazho kunena ni vivi Mulungu waika kilagane na Burahemu Sheria ya Musa yo yakudza bada ya miaka magana mane na mirongo mihahu kula haho kirihoikirwa cho kilagane Kwa vizho Sheria k'aidima kukifuta cho kilagane hatha ikaihendya yo ahadi ya Mulungu ikakala k'aina mana
Can following the law give us the blessing God promised If we could receive it by following the law then it would not be Gods promise that brings it to us But God freely gave his blessings to Abraham through the promise God made,Mana kalaho zawadi ya Mulungu inapatikana kwa kuthuwa Sheria be ngere k'aipatikana kwa ahadi Ela Mulungu kwa nema ya kwakwe wamup'a Burahemu kwa ngira ya ahadi
So what was the law for The law was given to show the wrong things people do The law would continue until the special Descendant of Abraham came This is the Descendant mentioned in the promise which came directly from God But the law was given through angels and the angels used Moses as a mediator to give the law to the people,Vikara yo Sheria ya Musa were ina mana yani Sheria iyo were yaikwa kwa ut'u wa makosa Sheria were yaikwa ihende kazi muhaka haryahu andihokudzirira ye mut'u wa lukolo lwa Burahemu ariyelagwa kukala andakudza Mulungu walazha iyo Sheria kwa Musa kukirira na malaika na Musa akikala nde mugwizanyi wa anadamu na Mulungu
But when God gave the promise there was no mediator because a mediator is not needed when there is only one side and God is one,Vikara mugwizanyi anahendzekana hat'u hariho hana at'u airi maikao kilagane Ela Mulungu ye ni mumwenga
Does this mean that the law works against Gods promises Of course not The law was never Gods way of giving new life to people If it were then we could be made right with God by following the law,Vidze yo Sheria ikale inapinga ahadi za Mulungu be zho Hatha bule Kalaho Sheria ina wadimi wa kuap'a anadamu uzima wa kare na kare be ngere at'u manahendywa ahachi kwa kuithuwa iyo
But this is not possible The Scriptures put the whole world in prison under the control of sin so that the only way for people to get what God promised would be through faith inJesus Christ It is given to those who believe in him,Ela Maoro ganaamba kukala urumwengu wosi udzafungwa ni dambi Kwa vizho iryahu ahadi ariyolaga Mulungu inalazhwa kwa kumukuluhira Jesu Masihi Na ao makuluhirao manaihokera
Before this faith came the law held us as prisoners We had no freedom until God showed us the way of faith that was coming,Siswi fwakala fudzafungwa here mahabusu ni Sheria muhaka wakathi uryahu Mulungu arihofugunulira kukala mut'u ahendywa muhachi kwa kumukuluhira Masihi
I mean the law was the guardian in charge of us until Christ came After he came we could be made right with God through faith,Bai Sheria ndo iriyokala murezi wehu muhaka wakathi arihokudza Masihi Na bai fukimukuluhira ye Masihi funahendywa ahachi
Now that the way of faith has come we no longer need the law to be our guardian,Vikara kwa kukala funamukuluhira Masihi k'ahuts'ini za urezi wa Sheria kaheri
Now in Christ it doesnt matter if you are a Jew or a Greek a slave or free male or female You are all the same in Christ Jesus,Kwa vizho k'akuna tofauti kahi za Muyahudi na Muyunani hedu mutumwa na mut'u ariye huru Kidza k'akuna tofauti yoyosi kahi za mulume na muche kwani kahi za Masihi Jesu nyosi mu kit'u kimwenga
You belong to Christ so you are Abrahams descendants You get all of Gods blessings because of the promise that God made to Abraham,Bai kwa kukala mu a Masihi mu ana a Burahemu na Mulungu andamup'a ziryahu zawadi arizomulaga Burahemu
This is what I am saying When young children inherit all that their father owned they are still no different from his slaves It doesnt matter that they own everything,Yani ninaamba Mwana arith'iye mali za babaye achere muhoho be k'ana tofauti yoyosi na mutumwa hatha vingahokala iyo mali yosi ni yakwe
While they are children they must obey those who are chosen to care for them But when they reach the age the father set they are free,Kabila k'adzakala mut'u na shuhulize lazima akale ts'ini za arezie na aimirizi a malize muhaka undihofika uryahu wakathi uriwoikwa ni babaye
It is the same for us We were once like children slaves to the useless rulesof this world,Bai hatha siswi wakathi furihokala fuchere ahoho fwakala fu atumwa a maadha ga kidhunia
But when the right time came God sent his Son who was born from a woman and lived under the law,Ela uwo wakathi uriwokala wapangwa urihofika Mulungu wamuhuma Mwanawe akidzazhalwa here mudamu na akiishi ts'ini za Sheria ya Musa
God did this so that he could buy the freedom of those who were under the law Gods purpose was to make us his children,Naye wahenda vizho ili aakombole aryahu mariokala manaishi ts'ini za Sheria na siswi fudime kuhendywa ana a Mulungu
Since you are now Gods children he has sent the Spirit of his Son into your hearts The Spirit cries out,Bai kwa kukala mu anae Mulungu wafuhumira ye Roho wa Mwanawe kahi za mioyo yehu Naye Roho iye nikurira akaamba Aba yani Baba
Now you are not slaves like before You are Gods children and you will receive everything he promised his children,Kwa vizho ninwi k'amu atumwa kaheri ela mudzauya mu anae Na kwa kukala mu anae kila kit'u aricho nacho ni chenu
In the past you did not know God You were slaves to gods that were not real,Wakathi murihokala k'amudzamumanya Mulungu mwakala mu atumwa a vit'u ambazho si Mulungu bule
But now you know the true God Really though it is God who knows you So why do you turn back to the same kind of weak and useless rules you followed before Do you want to be slaves to those things again,Ela vivi munamumanya Mulungu hedu hatha nadima kuamba Mulungu anamumanya Bai mbona munauyira maadha ga kidhunia ambago k'agana nguvu na mana yoyosi Yani munamala kuhendywa atumwa ni maut'u gago kaheri
Brothers and sisters I became like you So please become like me You were very good to me before,Ndugu zangu namuvoya mukale dza zho nirizho mimi kwani mimi nami nakala dza ninwi Kalani at'u masio na lazima ya kuthuwa Sheria ya Kiyahudi
You know that I came to you the first time because I was sick That was when I told the Good News to you,Here mumanyazho unyonge wangu ndiwo uriwonihendya hatha nikidzamwambiriza uwo Uvoro Udzo iryahu mara ya kwandza
My sickness was a burden to you but you did not stop showing me respect or make me leave Instead you welcomed me as if I were an angel from God You accepted me as if I were Jesus Christ himself,At'u ninwi mwere munadima kunikahala hedu kunidharau kwa ut'u wa wo unyonge wangu ela k'amuhendere vizho bule Mwanihokera dza here mungazhohokera malaika wa Mulungu hedu ye Masihi Jesu mwenye
You were very happy then Where is that joy now I can say without a doubt that you would have done anything to help me If it had been possible you would have taken out your own eyes and given them to me,Vidze irya raha muriyokala nayo yakwendahi Nina hakika kamare wakathi uwo kala were vinadimikika mungashukula matso genu mukanip'a mimi
Am I now your enemy because I tell you the truth,Vidze vino nidzakala hadhui wenu kwa kukala ninamwambira ujeri
Those peopleare working hard to persuade you but this is not good for you They want to persuade you to turn against us and work hard for them,Bai ao at'u mario manamubudzya na Sheria ya Kiyahudi madzasita kumuthuwa ela lengo rao si ridzo Lengo rao ni kuhutosa siswi na ninwi ili musite kuthuwa go gao
It is good for you to work hard of course if it is for something good Thats something you should do whether I am there or not,Si vii kusita kuthuwa kit'u bora thu kikale ni kit'u kidzo Na ni vidzo kukithuwa kit'u kicho siku zosi si kukithuwa wakathi ni haho thu h'akeye
My little children I am in pain again over you like a mother giving birth I will feel this pain until people can look at you and see Christ,Anangu ahendzwi mimi be nina utsungu kaheri kwa ut'u wenu Nina utsungu dza uryahu wa mwanamuche amalaye kudzivugula Nami nindakala nawo vizho wo utsungu muhaka maisha genu gakale here ga Masihi
I wish I could be with you now Then maybe I could change the way I am talking to you Now I dont know what to do about you,Ninathamani nikale ni hamwenga nanwi be nigaluze minenere kwani vizho muhendazho be vinanikonya sana
Some of you people want to be under the law Tell me do you know what the law says,Hedu nambirani nwi muhendzao kukala ts'ini za Sheria Kwani k'amusikira yo Sheria zho iambazho
The Scriptures say that Abraham had two sons The mother of one son was a slave woman and the mother of the other son was a free woman,Iyo inaamba kukala Burahemu were ana ana airi a kilume Mumwenga wamuzhala na mwanamuche mutumwa na mungine akimuzhala na muchewe mwenye
Abrahams son from the slave woman was born in the normal human way But the son from the free woman was born because of the promise God made to Abraham,Yuyahu mwana ariyemuzhala na mwanamuche mutumwa wazhalwa kwa ngira ya kawaida Ela yuyahu mwana ariyemuzhala na muchewe mwenye wazhalwa kulingana na ahadi iriyokala yaikwa ni Mulungu
This true story makes a picture for us The two women are like the two agreements between God and his people One agreement is the law that God made on Mount Sinai The people who are under this agreement are like slaves The mother named Hagar is like that agreement,Maut'u gaga ni here mafumbo Mana ao anaache airi ni mufano wa vilagane viri Kilagane kimwenga ni kiryahu kirichoikwa kahi za Murima wa Sinai ambacho ni here Hagari Hagari anazhala ana mario ni atumwa
So Hagar is like Mount Sinai in Arabia She is a picture of the earthly Jewish city of Jerusalem This city is a slave and all its people are slaves to the law,Hagari ni mufano wa Murima wa Sinai kuko Warabuni Naye adzahalana na mudzi wa Jerusalemu wa siku zizi Mana mudzi uwo hamwenga na at'ue u ts'ini za utumwa wa Sheria ya Musa
But the heavenly Jerusalem that is above is like the free woman who is our mother,Ela Jerusalemu ya kuko dzulu mulunguni i huru na ndiye mamiyehu Sera
The Scriptures say,Mana Maoro ganaamba
My brothers and sisters you are children who were born because of Gods promise just as Isaac was,Vikara ninwi ndugu zangu mu here Isaka kwa kukala mwazhalwa kuthuwana na ahadi iriyoikwa ni Mulungu
But the other son of Abraham who was born in the normal way caused trouble for the one who was born by the power of the Spirit It is the same today,Ela wakathi uwo yuyahu mwana ariyezhalwa kwa ngira ya kawaida wamutesa yuyahu mwana ariyezhalwa kwa nguvu za Roho wa Mulungu Na hatha siku zizi kidza ndo virizho
But what do the Scriptures say Throw out the slave woman and her son The son of the free woman will receive everything his father has but the son of the slave woman will receive nothing,Ela Maoro ganaamba kukala Iye mwanamuche mutumwa muinge hamwenga na mwanawe mana iye mwana wa mwanamuche mutumwa k'andahala ufwa mali za babaye hamwenga na iye mwana wa iye muche mwenye
So my brothers and sisters we are not children of the slave woman We are children of the free woman,Kwa vizho ndugu zangu siswi k'afuana a iye mwanamuche mutumwa ela fu ana a iye muche mwenye
We have freedom now because Christ made us free So stand strong in that freedom Dont go back into slavery again,Bai iye Masihi wafup'a uhuru ili fusikale atumwa kaheri Kwa vizho fungani nguwo ziume kwamba musiishi here atumwa kaheri
Listen I Paul tell you that if you start following the law by being circumcised then Christ cannot help you,Nisirikizani hedu Mimi P'aulo ninaamba vivi mukikala mundaruhusu mwangizwe lwembeni bai vizho arizhohenda Masihi haho musalabani vindakala k'avina mana yoyosi kwenu
Again I warn everyone If you allow yourselves to be circumcised then you must follow the whole law,H'aya vivi be ninamwambira kamare kaheri kukala mut'u yoyosi andiyekubali kwangizwa lwembeni be suthi aithuwe yosi yo Sheria ya Musa
If you try to be made right with God through the law your life with Christ is finishedyou have left Gods grace,Mut'u yoyosi kahi zenu ariye anajeza kupata hachi kwa Mulungu kwa kuthuwa Sheria naamanye kukala wadzitosa na Masihi na nema ya Mulungu k'ai hamwenga naye kaheri
I say this because our hope of being right with God comes through faith And the Spirit helps us feel sure as we wait for that hope,Ela siswi bai Roho wa Mulungu anafuhakikishira kamare kukala Mulungu andafuhendya ahachi kwa kuko kumukuluhira Masihi
When someone belongs to Christ Jesus it is not important if they are circumcised or not The important thing is faiththe kind of faith that works through love,Mana kahi za Masihi Jesu kwangizwa lwembeni hedu kutsangizwa lwembeni k'akuna mana yoyosi Kit'u muhimu ni kumukuluhira Masihi Na kumukuluhira Masihi kuku kunaonekana kahi za mahendzo
You were doing so well Who caused you to stop following the truth,At'u ninwi ho chaho mwere munaendererat'o sana Vikara ni h'ani kaheri ariyekudzamukingama hatha wo ujeri k'amuuthuwa
It certainly wasnt the one who chose you,Bai iye ariyemukenga-kenga namuna iyo si iye Mulungu ariyemwiha bule
Be careful Just a little yeast makes the whole batch of dough rise,Ts'ats'u ch'ach'e yenye nikuhendya unga munji ukakala ts'ats'u
I trust in the Lord that you will not believe those different ideas Someone is trying to confuse you Whoever it is will be punished,Ela hatha hamwenga na vizho nina hakika nanwi kahi za Bwana kukala k'amundagwira maneno ga mut'u mungine mundagwira gaga gangu Na iye mut'u amubudzyaye akili andaadhibiwa hatha akakala ni h'ani
My brothers and sisters I dont teach that a man must be circumcised If I do teach circumcision then why am I still being persecuted If I still taught circumcision then my message about the cross would not be a problem,Ndugu zangu kalaho mimi mwenye ninahubiri kukala at'u suthi mangizwe lwembeni be hatha singateserwe bule Ela kwa kukala ninahubiri kukala si lazima at'u kwangizwa lwembeni uwo uvoro wa musalaba unakwaza at'u
I wish those people who are bothering you would add castrationto their circumcision,Ninathamani kala ao at'u mario manamubudzya akili na uvoro wa kwangizwa lwembeni k'amangasisire haho makahenda kudzithula kamare
My brothers and sisters God chose you to be free But dont use your freedom as an excuse to do what pleases your sinful selves Instead serve each other with love,Ela ninwi ndugu zangu Mulungu wamwiha ili mukale huru Ela bai musiuhumire uhuru uwo kwa kuthuwa maut'u mai gahendzwago ni mwiri hat'u ha vizho humikiranani kwa mahendzo
The whole law is made complete in this one command Love your neighborthe same as you love yourself,Mana iyo Sheria ikitsanganywa inazhala sheria mwenga iambayo Muhendze mwandziyo here udzihendzazho mwenye
If you continue hurting each other and tearing each other apart be careful or you will completely destroy each other,Ela mukilumana na kuvarurana here nyama a tsakani be dzimanyirireni p'ore mukagonyana
So I tell you live the way the Spirit leads you Then you will not do the evil things your sinful self wants,Ninamwambira kukala ishini maisha ga kulongozwa ni Roho wa Mulungu nanwi k'amundathimiza th'amaa mbii zihendzwazo ni mwiri
The sinful self wants what is against the Spirit and the Spirit wants what is against the sinful self They are always fighting against each other so that you dont do what you really want to do,Mana maut'u mai gahendzwago ni mwiri ga kinyume na garyahu gahendzwago ni Roho wa Mulungu na garyahu gahendzwago ni Roho wa Mulungu ga kinyume na gago gahendzwago ni mwiri Bai gaga maut'u mairi ganapingana na nikumuhendya musihende garyahu muhendzago kuhenda
But if you let the Spirit lead you you are not under law,Ela mukilongozwa ni iye Roho wa Mulungu be k'amu ts'ini za Sheria ya Musa
The wrong things the sinful self does are clear committing sexual sin being morally bad doing all kinds of shameful things,Maut'u gahendwago ni mwiri ga lwazu nago ni gaga Uzindzi ukolo lukware
worshiping false gods taking part in witchcraft hating people causing trouble being jealous angry or selfish causing people to argue and divide into separate groups,kuvoya vizuka utsai kumenana k'ondo wivu k'oro kudzanula kudzithenga na at'u kugazha at'u vithundhu-vithundhu zha kupingana
being filled with envy getting drunk having wild parties and doing other things like this I warn you now as I warned you before The people who do these things will not have a part in Gods kingdom,kuonerana kidzitso urevi sherehe za kuhenda maitsi-maitsi na maut'u mangine gadzigohalana na gaga Bai ninamukanya kaheri dza here nirizhomukanya kare at'u mahendao maut'u gago k'amandaupata uthawali wa Mulungu ng'o
But the fruit that the Spirit produces in a persons life is love joy peace patience kindness goodness faithfulness,Ela Roho wa Mulungu akimulongoza mut'u bai mut'u iye andakala na maut'u gaga Mahendzo furaha dheri kuvumirira mbazi moyo mudzo uaminifu
gentleness and selfcontrol There is no law against these kinds of things,up'ore na kudzizulia na mai Bai k'akuna sheria yoyosi idimayo kuvipinga vivi
Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified their sinful self They have given up their old selfish feelings and the evil things they wanted to do,At'u a Masihi Jesu k'amathawalwa ni maut'u mai gahendzwago ni mwiri Kwani uwo mwiri mausulubisha hamwenga na th'amaaze na maazoge mai
We get our new life from the Spirit so we should follow the Spirit,Bai kwa kukala funaishi kwa kulongozwa ni Roho wa Mulungu nafuthuwe gago afwambirago iye Roho
We must not feel proud and boast about ourselves We must not cause trouble for each other or be jealous of each other,Fusikale at'u a kudzionya hedu a kuhendza k'ondo hedu a kuonerana kidzitso
Brothers and sisters someone in your group might do something wrong You who are following the Spirit should go to the one who is sinning Help make that person right again and do it in a gentle way But be careful because you might be tempted to sin too,Ndugu zangu mut'u akihereza akihenda dambi ninwi murio munalongozwa ni Roho wa Mulungu jezani kumudzyat'o kwa up'ore Ela kahi za kuhenda vizho dzimanyirireni p'ore nanwi mukajezwa
Help each other with your troubles When you do this you are obeying the law of Christ,Tsukuliranani mizigo Mukihenda vizho mundakala munathimiza sheria ya Masihi
If you think you are too important to do this you are only fooling yourself,Mut'u yoyosi akidziona kukala iye ni kit'u sana ela ko k'achochosi bai anadzikenga mwenye
Dont compare yourself with others Just look at your own work to see if you have done anything to be proud of,Kila mut'u ni lazima apime mahendoge na chamba ni madzo h'aya anadima kudzionyera Asidzilinganishe na mut'u mungine bule
You must each accept the responsibilities that are yours,Mana kila mut'u ni lazima atsukule muzigowe mwenye
Whoever is being taught Gods word should share the good things they have with the one who is teaching them,Kila afundishwaye neno ra Mulungu ni lazima agazhe zo rizikize na iye mwalimuwe
If you think you can fool God you are only fooling yourselves You will harvest what you plant,Musikengwe Mulungu k'akengeka Alayacho mut'u ndicho avunacho
If you live to satisfy your sinful self the harvest you will get from that will be eternal death But if you live to please the Spirit your harvest from the Spirit will be eternal life,Mut'u alayaye maut'u ga mwiriwe andavuna kwangamizwa kula kwa uwo mwiriwe Na iye alayaye maut'u ga Roho bai andavuna uzima wa kare na kare kula kwa iye Roho
We must not get tired of doing good We will receive our harvest of eternal life at the right time We must not give up,Kidza fusitsoke bule kuhenda madzo mana uwo wakathi uriwoikwa ukifika fundavuna bora thu fusifwe moyo
When we have the opportunity to do good to anyone we should do it But we should give special attention to those who are in the family of believers,Kwa vizho kila fupataho kadzanya nafuahendere at'u osi madzo na haswa aryahu mario manamukuluhira Masihi dza siswi
This is my own handwriting You can see how big the letters are,Lolani zho nirizho ninamwandhikira ndzora bomu-bomu na mukono wangu wenye
Those men who are trying to force you to be circumcised are only doing it so that their people will accept them They are afraid they will be persecuted if they follow only the crossof Christ,Aryahu at'u mario manaamba chaa suthi mwangizwe lwembeni manahenda vizho ili maafwahize Ayahudi Na vivi manavihenda kwa kukala k'amendzi kuteseka kwa ut'u wa uwo musalaba wa Masihi vizho thu basi
They are circumcised but they dont obey the law themselves They want you to be circumcised so that they can boast about what they did to you,Kwani hatha ao mangizwao lwembeni kidza yo Sheria k'amaithuwa yosi kuno ko madzasita kuamba ninwi suthi mwangizwe lwembeni Mamalacho ao ni kudzikut'ula na iyo miri yenu
I hope I will never boast about things like that The cross of our Lord Jesus Christ is my only reason for boasting Through Jesus death on the cross the world is deadto me and I am dead to the world,Ela mimi sidima kudzionyera kit'u kingine hasihokala uwo musalaba wa Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi Kukirira na uwo musalaba go maut'u ga urumwengu k'agana mana yoyosi kwangu na mimi nami sina mana yoyosi kwa gago maut'u ga urumwengu
It doesnt matter if anyone is circumcised or not The only thing that matters is this new life we have from God,Kwangizwa lwembeni hedu kutsangizwa lwembeni vizho si kit'u Kiricho muhimu ni mut'u kupata maisha masha kula kwa Mulungu
Peace and mercy to those who follow this ruleto all Gods people,Bai ao mandiogwira maneno gaga ndo at'u a Mulungu jerina Mulungu naaonere mbazi na aahendye makale na dheri
So dont give me any more trouble I have scars on my body that showI belong to Jesus,Kula vivi ts'endzi mut'u anibudzye kaheri mana mumu mwirini mwangu be nina makushu ganyesago kukala ni wa Jesu
My brothers and sisters I pray that the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ will be with your spirits Amen,Bai ndugu zangu nema ya Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi naikale kahi za roho zenu H'aami
Greetings from Paul an apostle of Christ Jesus I am an apostle because that is what God wanted,Mimi P'aulo niriyetsagulwa ni Mulungu nikale muhumwi wa Masihi Jesu ninamwandhikira baruwa ii ninwi at'u a Mulungu murio kuko Efeso at'u murio mu aaminifu kahi za kumuthuwa Masihi
Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,Bai nema na dheri kula kwa Mulungu Babiyehu na Bwana Jesu Masihi navikale kwenu
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ In Christ God has given us every spiritual blessing in heaven,Naalikwe Mulungu babaye Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi ariye kukirira kwa Masihi wahup'a baraka za kiroho kuko mulunguni
In Christ he chose us before the world was made He chose us in love to be his holy peoplepeople who could stand before him without any fault,Kwa mahendzo Mulungu wahutsagula kabila urumwengu k'audzaumbwa kwamba fukale aeri bila kaila kokosi mbereze
And before the world was made God decided to make us his own children through Jesus Christ This was what God wanted and it pleased him to do it,Mulungu wapanga kimbere kukala andafuhendya anae kukirira kwa Jesu Masihi Waonat'o kukala ahende vivi kwa mahendzoge mwenye
And this brings praise to God because of his wonderful grace God gave that grace to us freely He gave us that grace in Christ the one he loves,Bai nahumulike kwa ut'u wa yo nema ya kwakwe ya nguma Nema ii wahup'a bule kukirira kwa iye Mwanawe amuhendzaye zhomu
In Christ we are made free by his blood sacrifice We have forgiveness of sins because of Gods rich grace,Kwani kukirira na iyo milatsoye siswi fwakombolwa yani fwasamehewa dambi zehu Vivi zhakala kulengana na zizo mbazi za kwakwe nyinji
God gave us that grace fully and freely With full wisdom and understanding,Iye wafuonera mbazi zizo zisizo kipimo na akifup'a ulachu na marifa
he let us know his secret plan This was what God wanted and he planned to do it through Christ,Mana Mulungu wafumanyisa mupangowe uriwokala k'aumanywa ni mut'u naye waamua kuukamilisha kukirira kwa Masihi
Gods goal was to finish his plan when the right time came He planned that all things in heaven and on earth be joined together with Christ as the head,Bai mupango uwo were undathimizwa haho wakathi ukifika Andazhika vit'u zhosi zha mulunguni na ts'i ts'ini za Masihi
In Christ we were chosen to be Gods people God had already planned for us to be his people because that is what he wanted And he is the one who makes everything agree with what he decides and wants,Mulungu akihenda ut'u anauhenda karakara na mahendzo ga kwakwe Bai siswi fwatsagulwa hukale at'u a Mulungu kukirira na Masihi karakara na arizhopanga Mulungu mwenye
We Jews were the first to hope in Christ And we were chosen so that we would bring praise to God in all his glory,Mulungu wahenda vivi ili siswi furio a kwandza kuhenda th'amaa na Masihi humup'e nguma kwa ut'u wa ubomuwe
It is the same with you You heard the true message the Good News about the way God saves you When you heard that Good News you believed in Christ And in Christ God put his special mark on you by giving you the Holy Spirit that he promised,Ninwi nanwi mwasikira neno ra ujeri wo Uvoro Udzo wa kumuokola mukimukuluhira Masihi Vikara kwa kukala mwakuluhira mwangizwa muvano wa Roho Mweri ariye iye ndiye ariyekala walagwa andakudza
The Spirit is the first payment that guarantees we will get all that God has for us Then we will enjoy complete freedom as people who belong to him The goal for all of us is the praise of God in all his glory,Bai iye Roho Mweri ndiye rubuni ya yo ahadi yehu fundiyoipata wakathi uryahu Mulungu andihoakombola at'ue Bai nafuyanule nguma ya Mulungu
That is why I always remember you in my prayers and thank God for you I have done this ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all of Gods people,Kwa kukala nasikira dzulu za kuluhiro renu kahi za Bwana Jesu na viryahu murizho munaahendza at'u a Mulungu
I always pray to the great and glorious Father the God of our Lord Jesus Christ I pray that he will give you the Spirit who will let you know truths about God and help you understand them so that you will know him better,nami siricha kumulazhira muvera Mulungu kwa ut'u wenu na kumukumbukira kahi za mavoyo
I pray that God will open your minds to see his truth Then you will know the hope that he has chosen us to have You will know that the blessings God has promised his holy people are rich and glorious,Ninamuvoyera kwamba ye Baba wa nguma Mulungu wa Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi amup'e ulachu wa kiroho Kidza amup'e ugunulo ili muenderere kumumanya iye zaidhi na zaidhi
And you will know that Gods power is very great for us who believe It is the same as the mighty power,Ninamuvoyera Mulungu amung'aze matso ga ndani ili mudime kukimanyat'o kiryahu kit'u mukitharizacho kidza arichomuihira Kit'u kiki ni uryahu uthajiri wa nguma ariwolaga kuap'a at'ue
he used to raise Christ from death and put him at his right side in the heavenly places,Pia ninamuvoyera kwamba mudime kumanya viryahu wadimi wa kwakwe urizho mubomu zhomu Wadimi uu unahenda kazi ndani yehu siswi furiomukuluhira na u karakara na uryahu wadimi mubomu
He put Christ over all rulers authorities powers and kings He gave him authority over everything that has power in this world or in the next world,ario Mulungu wamufufulira Masihi na kumwika luhande lwa mukono kurya wa kwakwe iye Mulungu kuko mulunguni
God put everything under Christs power and made him head over everything for the church,Haho ariho Masihi bai a dzulu za uthawali wosi na mamulaka gosi na nguvu zosi na athawali osi Bai ana wadimi dzulu za kila kit'u kahi za urumwengu uu na hatha kahi za urumwengu udzawo
The church is Christs body It is filled with him He makes everything complete in every way,Mulungu wahala vit'u zhosini akizhika ts'ini za uthawali wa Masihi na akimwika akale kitswa cha kanisa
In the past you were spiritually dead because of your sins and the things you did against God,Kanisa ndo mwiri wa Masihi naro rinamukamilisha iye akamilishaye vit'u zhosi kahi za kila ngira
Yes in the past your lives were full of those sins You lived the way the world lives following the ruler of the evil powers over the earth That same spirit is now working in those who refuse to obey God,Kuna wakathi murihokala ninwi mwafwa kiroho kwa ut'u wa kuhenda makosa na kuhenda dambi
In the past all of us lived like that trying to please our sinful selves We did all the things our bodies and minds wanted Like everyone else in the world we deserved to suffer Gods anger just because of the way we were,Wakathi uwo mwakala mukiishi kwa kugathuwa maut'u ga urumwengu uu Mwakala munathuwa gago ga muthawali wa hewani ariye iye ndiye iryahu roho iathawalao at'u mario kinyume na Mulungu
But God is rich in mercy and he loved us very much,Na hatha siswi naswi fwakala fukiishi dza ao Fwathuwa kuhenda maut'u gahendzwago ni mwiri Fwakala fukithawalwa ni th'amaa zirizofwangiza dambini na fukiishi here akili zehu zirizhofulongoza Were funavirya kumwagirwa k'oro za Mulungu karakara na anadamu angine osi
We were spiritually dead because of all we had done against him But he gave us new life together with Christ You have been saved by Gods grace,Ela kwa kukala Mulungu anafuhendza zhomu wafuonera mbazi sana
Yes it is because we are a part of Christ Jesus that God raised us from death and seated us together with him in the heavenly places,mana idzaho were fwafwa kiroho kwa zo dambi zehu iye wafuhendya fukale moyo kaheri hamwenga na Masihi Bai mwaokolwa kwa nema ya Mulungu
God did this so that his kindness to us who belong to Christ Jesus would clearly show for all time to come the amazing richness of his grace,Mulungu wahufufula hamwenga na Masihi na akifuhendya fukelesi hamwenga naye kahi za makalo ga mulunguni kwa kukala hu at'u a Masihi Jesu
I mean that you have been saved by grace because you believed You did not save yourselves it was a gift from God,Bai vizho arizhofuhendera Masihi Jesu vindakala mufano kwa at'u a wakathi uu na hatha a miaka idzayo kuanyesa viryahu Mulungu arizho na mbazi nyinji zisizo na mwandziwe hamwenga na udzo
You are not saved by the things you have done so there is nothing to boast about,Kwani ninwi mwaokolwa kukirira na iyo nema ya kwakwe wakathi murihokuluhira si kwa kukala were munahenda madzo hatha Wokolwi uu mwaupata here zawadi kula kwa Mulungu
God has made us what we are In Christ Jesus God made us new people so that we would spend our lives doing the good things he had already planned for us to do,Kwa vizho mut'u k'adima kudzionya kukala waokolwa kwa ut'u wa mahendoge madzo
You were not born as Jews You are the people the Jews call uncircumcised Those Jews who call you uncircumcised call themselves circumcised Their circumcision is only something they themselves do to their bodies,Siswi fu kazi ya Mulungu faumbwa kukirira kwa Masihi Jesu ili fuhende garyahu mahendo madzo arigo Mulungu wafupangira hangu chaho fugahende
Remember that in the past you were without Christ You were not citizens of Israel and you did not know about the agreementswith the promises that God made to his people You had no hope and you did not know God,Ninwi munamanya kukala Ayahudi at'u a kwangizwa lwembeni kwa mikono ya mwanadamu kunyesa kukala ao be ni at'u a Mulungu jeri manamuzarau ninwi murio k'amu Ayahudi na kumwamba mu at'u musiongizwa lwembeni
Yes at one time you were far away from God but now in Christ Jesus you are brought near to him You are brought near to God through the blood sacrifice of Christ,Bai kuna wakathi murihokala k'amuna Masihi bule mwere k'amu kahi za jao ra Aiziraeli atsagulwa a Mulungu Ninwi mwere mu ajeni na k'amuna muthalo bule kahi za ahadi arizoika Mulungu kahi za vilaganezhe Mwere k'amuna tumaini rorosi kidza mwere k'amumumanya Mulungu kahi za urumwengu uu
Christ is the reason we are now at peace He made us Jews and you who are not Jews one people We were separated by a wall of hate that stood between us but Christ broke down that wall By giving his own body,Ela vikara kahi za Masihi Jesu ninwi murio mwere mu kure na Mulungu mwarefwa hehi kukirira kwa milatso ya Masihi
Christ came and brought the message of peace to you nonJews who were far away from God And he brought that message of peace to those who were near to God,Kwani iye ndiye ariyehala cho chambaza cha uhadhui kirichokala kidzaagazha Ayahudi na at'u mario si Ayahudi akikibanda-banda Kwa ngira ii Masihi akihurehera dheri na akihugwizanya hukikala kit'u kimwenga
Yes through Christ we all have the right to come to the Father in one Spirit,Masihi wamboza uzimawe haryahu musalabani Bai kwa ngira iyo akiapatanisha aa at'u airi na Mulungu kahi za mwiri mumwenga na uryahu uhadhui mariwokala nawo akiugonya
So now you nonJewish people are not visitors or strangers but you are citizens together with Gods holy people You belong to Gods family,Wakudzahubiri dheri kwenu ninwi muriokala mu kure na Mulungu na kwao ao mariokala ma hehi naye
You believers are like a building that God owns That building was built on the foundation that the apostles and prophets prepared Christ Jesus himself is the most important stonein that building,Kwa gago arigofuhendera Masihi siswi hosi funadima kumufikira Baba kukirira kwa Roho mumwenga
The whole building is joined together in Christ and he makes it grow and become a holy templein the Lord,Kwa vizho vikara ninwi k'amu ajeni hedu akizi a ngira kaheri ela mudzauya mu jao mwenga na at'u a Mulungu mu at'u a nyumba ya Mulungu
And in Christ you are being built together with his other people You are being made into a place where God lives through the Spirit,Mu jamii idziyojengwa dzulu za musinji uriwoikwa ni ahumwi na manabii kuno Masihi Jesu mwenye nde iwe bomu ra p'embeni ridzirozulia yo nyumba
So I Paul am a prisoner because I serve Christ Jesus for you who are not Jews,Kahi za iye Masihi ninwi nyosi munafungwa hamwenga mukale Hekalu eri kahi za Bwana
Surely you know that God gave me this work through his grace to help you,Bai kwa ngira ii ninwi nanwi munaakwa hamwenga ili mukale makalo ga Mulungu kahi za Roho
God let me know his secret plan by showing it to me I have already written a little about this,Mimi P'aulo vivi ni jela kwa kukala ni muhumiki wa Masihi Jesu kwa ut'u wenu ninwi at'u murio k'amu Ayahudi
And if you read what I wrote you can see that I understand the secret truth about Christ,Na ninamanya mwasikira zho Mulungu arizhonip'a nema ya kwakwe ili nimwambirize ninwi Uvoro Udzo
People who lived in other times were not told that secret truth But now through the Spirit God has made it known to his holy apostles and prophets,Mulungu wanigunulira uwo mupangowe uriwokala k'akuna mut'u aumanyaye Nidzandhika kare kwa ufuti dzulu za mupango uu
And this is the secret truth that by hearing the Good News those who are not Jews will share with the Jews in the blessings God has for his people They are part of the same body and they share in the promise God made through Christ Jesus,Na mundihoshoma gaga nindhikago mundamanya kukala uwo mupango wa siri dzulu za Masihi be ninaumanya jeri
By Gods special gift of grace I became a servant to tell that Good News He gave me that grace by using his power,Haho kapindi siri ii ya mupango wa Mulungu yere k'ahana aimanyaye ela vivi bai waigunulira ahumwie aeri na manabiie kukirira kwa Rohowe
I am the least important of all Gods people But he gave me this giftto tell the nonJewish people the Good News about the riches Christ has These riches are too great to understand fully,Bai uwo mupango wa Mulungu ni uu Kukirira na wo Uvoro Udzo at'u mario si Ayahudi nao manadima kuhokera muthalo wa ahadi za Mulungu hamwenga na o Ayahudi Mana makimukuluhira Masihi Jesu manakala vilungo zha mwiri mumwenga na mandapata ziryahu zawadi arizolaga Mulungu
And God gave me the work of telling all people about the plan for his secret truth That secret truth has been hidden in him since the beginning of time He is the one who created everything,Mulungu wanip'a kazi ii ya kuambiriza at'u Uvoro Udzo kwa mbazize mwenye na kwa nguvuze mwenye
His purpose was that all the rulers and powers in the heavenly places will now know the many different ways he shows his wisdom They will know this because of the church,Kahi za at'u osi a Mulungu mimi ndimi wa ts'ini kamare Ela idzaho ndimi wa ts'ini Mulungu wanip'a kipawa cha kuambiriza at'u mario si Ayahudi ushaha wa Masihi usiwogoma
This agrees with the plan God had since the beginning of time He did what he planned and he did it through Christ Jesus our Lord,Na niang'azize at'u osi dzulu za uwo mupango wa Mulungu ariye ndiye muumbi wa vit'u zhosi Mupango uwo were wafitswa hangu ho chaho kahi za Mulungu
In Christ we come before God with freedom and without fear We can do this because of our faith in Christ,Bai kukirira na riro kanisare ananyesa namuna nyinji za ulachuwe kwa athawali na kwa enye wadimi kuko dzulu
So I ask you not to be discouraged because of what is happening to me My sufferings are for your benefitfor your honor and glory,Mulungu were wapanga vivi kahi za mupangowe wa kare na kare naye akivithimiza kukirira kwa Bwana wehu Masihi Jesu
So I bow in prayer before the Father,Bai siswi furiomukuluhira iye funadima kwenda kwa Mulungu bila wasiwasi hedu woga
Every family in heaven and on earth gets its true name from him,Kwa vizho ninamuvoya musifwe moyo kwa kukala vivi ninateseka kwa ut'u wenu mana vizho kwenu ni ishima
I ask the Father with his great glory to give you the power to be strong in your spirits He will give you that strength through his Spirit,Bai nikiaza dzulu za wo mupango wa Mulungu mimi nikupiga mavindi mbere za Baba
I pray that Christ will live in your hearts because of your faith I pray that your life will be strong in love and be built on love,ariye iye nde ariyeumba zhumbe zhosi kuko mulunguni na haha ts'i
And I pray that you and all Gods holy people will have the power to understand the greatness of Christs lovehow wide how long how high and how deep that love is,Ninamuvoyera Mulungu kwamba kula kwa uwo uthajiriwe wa nguma amwangize nguvu ndani mwenu kukirira na Rohowe
Christs love is greater than anyone can ever know but I pray that you will be able to know that love Then you can be filled with everything God has for you,Kidza ninamuvoyera kwamba Masihi ahende makalo kahi za mioyo yenu kukirira na kuko kukuluhira kwenu Musinji wenu na miziji yenu ikale kahi za mahendzo
With Gods power working in us he can do much much more than anything we can ask or think of,Vizho navikale ili ninwi hamwenga na at'u osi a Mulungu mukale na wadimi wa kumanya ure na walamu na kimo na wina wa gago mahendzo ga Masihi Mahendzo gago ga Masihi ganakira akili za mwanadamu ela bai namuvoyera mugamanye na Mulungu amudzaze na ukamilifu wa kwakwe wosi
To him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus for all time forever and ever Amen,Mulungu anadima kufuhendera mabomu kukirira na uwo wadimiwe uhendao kazi ndani mwehu hatha kukira zhosi fudimazho kuvivoya kwakwe hedu hatha kuviaza Bai Mulungu naagerwe nguma kahi za kanisare na kahi za Masihi Jesu hatha kare na kare H'aami
So as a prisoner for the Lord I beg you to live the way Gods people should live because he chose you to be his,Kwa vizho bai mimi mufungwa kwa ut'u wa Bwana ninamuvoya muishi maisha galenganago na uwo mwiho wenu muriwoihirwa ni Mulungu
Always be humble and gentle Be patient and accept each other with love,Kalani at'u arumwengu na ap'ore na avumiriri Vumiriranani kwa mahendzo
You are joined together with peace through the Spirit Do all you can to continue as you are letting peace hold you together,Hendani mwadimazho muone kukala munaenderera kukala na umwenga urefwao ni Roho Mweri na dheri rimugwizanye ngwa
There is one body and one Spirit and God chose you to have one hope,Ninwi mu mwiri mumwenga na muna Roho mumwenga dza viryahu murizhoihirwa tumaini mwenga kahi za mwiho wenu
There is one Lord one faith and one baptism,Muna Bwana mumwenga na kuluhiro mwenga na ubat'izo mumwenga
There is one God and Father of us all who rules over everyone He works through all of us and in all of us,Kidza muna Mulungu mumwenga ariye iye nde Babaye osi ndiye ariye dzulu za osi na anahenda kazi kukirira kwa osi na a ndani za osi
Christ gave each one of us a special gift Everyone received what he wanted to give them,Ela kila mumwenga wehu wagerwa nema kulengana na kipimo arichojaliwa ni Masihi
That is why the Scriptures say,Kwani Maoro ganaamba
When it says He went up what does it mean It means that he first came down low to earth,Vikara gaga maneno gaambago Wakwenda dzulu manaye ni kukala iye ariyekwenda dzulu waandza kutharamuka ts'ini ya ts'i kwandza
So Christ came down and he is the same one who went up He went up above the highest heaven in order to fill everything with himself,Iye ariyetharamuka nde iye ariyekwenda dzulu mulunguni kwenye ili avikamilishe vit'u zhosi
And that same Christ gave these gifts to people He made some to be apostles some to be prophets some to go and tell the Good News and some to care for and teach Gods people,Bai iye ndiye ariyeap'a angine vipawa zha uhumwi angine zha unabii angine zha kuhubiri Uvoro Udzo angine zha uchungaji na angine zha walimu
Christ gave these gifts to prepare Gods holy people for the work of serving to make the body of Christ stronger,Wahenda vivi ili ahakikishe kukala o at'u a Mulungu manathayarishwa kwa ut'u wa kazi ya Mulungu na riro kanisa ambaro ndo uwo mwiri wa Masihi rijengeke
This work must continue until we are all joined together in what we believe and in what we know about the Son of God Our goal is to become like a fullgrown manto look just like Christ and have all his perfection,Na kwa vizho vivi vienderere muhaka siswi hosini fukale na kuluhiro mwenga na kuko kumumanya Mwana wa Mulungu nako kukale kumwenga muhaka fukale at'u azima kiroho na fufikire kiwango cha ukamilifu wa Masihi
Then we will no longer be like babies We will not be people who are always changing like a ship that the waves carry one way and then another We will not be influenced by every new teaching we hear from people who are trying to deceive usthose who make clever plans and use every kind of trick to fool others into following the wrong way,Fukikala vizho k'afundakala here ahoho kutsufwa kuno na kuno na kuhalwa ni p'eho za mafundisho ga ulongo gadzago na at'u ajanja ili maangamize ngira angine na uwo ujanja wao
No we will speak the truth with love We will grow to be like Christ in every way He is the head,Ela siswi nafuthuwe ujeri kwa mahendzo na ndo fundakumala kwa kila ngira hukale here Masihi ariye iye ndiye kitswa cha kanisa
and the whole body depends on him All the parts of the body are joined and held together with each part doing its own work This causes the whole body to grow and to be stronger in love,Ts'ini za iye Masihi vilungo zhosi zha mwiri vinagwirana hamwenga na kukala mwiri mumwenga Kila kilungo mumo mwirini kinahenda kazi kuugwizanya hamwenga uwo mwiri Kwa vizho kila kilungo kikihenda here vimalikanazho nikuuhenda uwo mwiri ukakula na ukadima kudzijenga wenye kahi za mahendzo
I have something from the Lord to tell you I warn you Dont continue living like those who dont believe Their thoughts are worth nothing,Vikara namala ninene neno riri nami ninarinena kahi za dzina ra Bwana kuandzira vivi be musiishi here at'u masiomumanya Mulungu Ao maazo gao k'agana thendhe
They have no understanding and they know nothing because they refuse to listen So they cannot have the life that God gives,na machere kizani At'u aa vizho ma kure na uzima wa Mulungu kwa ujinga wao na kwa singo zao nyomu
They have lost their feeling of shame and use their lives to do what is morally wrong More and more they want to do all kinds of evil,Myoyo yao k'aiahukumu kaheri mana manahenda kila aina ya ukolo kwa ut'u wa zo th'amaa ch'afu marizo nazo
But that way of life is nothing like what you learned when you came to know Christ,Ela gago so murigofundishwa bule dzulu za Masihi
I know that you heard about him and in him you were taught the truth Yes the truth is in Jesus,Bai chamba mwasikira na mukifundishwa dzulu za Masihi kuthuwana na uwo ujeri uriwo kwakwe
You were taught to leave your old self This means that you must stop living the evil way you lived before That old self gets worse and worse because people are fooled by the evil they want to do,iryahu hali yenu ya kapindi isiyo na mana ivuleni Kwani iyo nikunongeka kwa zizo th'amaa ch'afu zikengazo
You must be made new in your hearts and in your thinking,Ela bai mioyo yenu na akili zenu suthi vigaluke vikale visha
Be that new person who was made to be like God truly good and pleasing to him,Valani hali mbisha iryahu iriyoumbwa ni Mulungu ndani yenu karakara na iryahu ya Mulungu yenye kahi za hachi na ueri wa jeri
So you must stop telling lies You must always speak the truth to each otherbecause we all belong to each other in the same body,Bai musikale alongo kila mut'u naanene ujeri kwa mwandziwe mana hosini fu vilungo zha mwiri mumwenga wa Masihi
When you are angry dont let that anger make you sinand dont stay angry all day,Mukitsukirwa musihende dambi kwa ut'u wa kuko kutsukirwa kwenu Na pia mutsukirwaho musikale a mulomo futu hatha kukatswa
Dont give the devil a way to defeat you,na musimup'e Shethani nafasi
Whoever has been stealing must stop it and start working They must use their hands for doing something good Then they will have something to share with those who are poor,Mut'u ariyekala mwivi vivi asiiye kaheri hat'uhe naandze kuhenda kazi na mikonoye ili apate mahitajige na pia adime kuaviza akiya
When you talk dont say anything bad But say the good things that people needwhatever will help them grow stronger Then what you say will be a blessing to those who hear you,Kusambole neno rorosi rii kanwani mwenu ela namwambole maneno madzo gadimago kuaviza at'u ili kila andiyegasikira ahaswe
And dont make the Holy Spirit sad God gave you his Spirit as proof that you belong to him and that he will keep you safe until the day he makes you free,Musimuhuzunishe Roho Mweri wa Mulungu ariye iye nde muvano wa kunyesa kukala mu akwe na kwamba kuna siku Mulungu andamukombola
Never be bitter angry or mad Never shout angrily or say things to hurt others Never do anything evil,Musikale at'u enye kisasi musikale na k'oro hedu hasira Musinene kwa madumulo na musichukane bule Dziahuseni na mai gosini
Be kind and loving to each other Forgive each other the same as God forgave you through Christ,Kalani at'u a mioyo midzo muhurumiane na musameheane dza viryahu Mulungu arizhomusamehe ninwi kukirira kwa Masihi
You are Gods dear children so try to be like him,Bai mwigeni Mulungu here anae amuhendzao
Live a life of love Love others just as Christ loved us He gave himself for usa sweetsmelling offering and sacrifice to God,Ishini kwa kuhendzana dza viryahu Masihi arizhohuhendza siswi hatha akidzilazha akifwa here sadaka ya muruk'e mudzo kwa Mulungu kwa ut'u wehu siswi
But there must be no sexual sin among you There must not be any kind of evil or selfishly wanting more and more because such things are not right for Gods holy people,Bai kwa kukala mudzauya mu at'u a Mulungu k'amuvirya kuhadzwa na maut'u ga uzindzi bule hedu maitsi-maitsi na k'amuvirya kumbozera dzitso cha mut'u
Also there must be no evil talk among you Dont say things that are foolish or filthy These are not for you But you should be giving thanks to God,K'amuhendzwa kunena maneno ga aibu hedu ga kizuzu k'amuvirya kuhenda madhe mai mana gago k'agafwaha ela hat'u ha vizho mushukuruni Mulungu
You can be sure of this No one will have a place in the kingdom of Christ and of God if that person commits sexual sins or does evil things or is a person who selfishly wants more and more A greedy person like that is serving a false god,Bai ninwi manyani kamare kukala muzindzi hedu mut'u ahendaye maitsi-maitsi hedu mut'u mwenye dzitso mut'u dza iye ni muvoyi wa vizuka k'andangira kamare kahi za uthawali wa Masihi na Mulungu
Dont let anyone fool you with words that are not true God gets very angry when people who dont obey him talk like that,Mut'u asimukenge kwa kumuahidhi maut'u ga ulongo mana k'oro za Mulungu zindaadzirira ao at'u mario manahenda maut'u gaga kwa kukala k'amamwagoha Mulungu
So dont have anything to do with them,Kwa vizho musishirikiane na at'u dza vizho aa
In the past you were full of darkness but now you are full of light in the Lord So live like children who belong to the light,Haho kapindi ninwi mwere mu kizani ela vivi bai mu kahi za mulangaza wa Bwana kwa vizho ishini here at'u mario mulangazani maviryazho kuishi
This light produces every kind of goodness right living and truth,Kwani at'u mario mulangazani ni kuhenda maut'u madzo-madzo ga hachi na ga ujeri
Try to learn what pleases the Lord,Dzifundisheni mumanye ni ut'u wani umufwahizao Bwana
Have no part in the things that people in darkness do which produce nothing good Instead tell everyone how wrong those things are,Na kidza musihusike na maut'u ga kizani garigo k'agana faidha yoyosi ela hat'u ha vizho gang'azeni
Actually it is shameful to even talk about the things those people do in secret,Mana gago mahendago kisiri-siri hatha k'aganeneka
But the light makes clear how wrong those things are,Ela maut'u gaking'azwa nikupigwa ni mulangaza na gakaonewa lwazu
Yes everything is made clear by the light This is why we say,Kwani mulangaza ndiwo uhendao kit'u kikaoneka lwazu Ndosa at'u ni kuamba
So be very careful how you live Live wisely not like fools,Kwa vizho bai dzimanyirireni sana zho muishizho Musiishi here at'u azuzu ishini here at'u alachu
I mean that you should use every opportunity you have for doing good because these are evil times,Humirani wakathi wenu t'ot'ot'o mana siku zizi ni mbii
So dont be foolish with your lives but learn what the Lord wants you to do,Kwa vizho bai musikale azuzu ela manyani mahendzo ga Bwana ni noni
Dont be drunk with wine which will ruin your life but be filled with the Spirit,Musiree bule mana divai indamwangamiza ela hat'uhe dzazwani Roho Mweri
Encourage each other with psalms hymns and spiritual songs Sing and make music in your hearts to the Lord,na muimbirane zaburi p'ambiyo na maira ga kiroho na mioyoni mwenu mukale munamuimbira Bwana na kumushangilia
Always give thanks to God the Father for everything in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,Lazhani muvera kwa Mulungu Baba kila wakathi na kwa kila kit'u kwa dzina ra Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi
Be willing to serve each other out of respect for Christ,Na kidza kwa ut'u wa kumwogoha Masihi kila mumwenga wenu ni adzitsereze kwa mwandziwe
Wives be willing to serve your husbands the same as the Lord,Ninwi ache asikireni alume enu dza zho mumusikirazho Bwana
A husband is the head of his wife just as Christ is the head of the church Christ is the Savior of the church which is his body,Kwani mulume nde kitswa cha muchewe dza viryahu Masihi arizho ndiye kitswa cha kanisa Kanisa ndo mwiri wa Masihi na iye nde mwokoliwe
The church serves under Christ so it is the same with you wives You should be willing to serve your husbands in everything,Bai dza viryahu kanisa rimusikirazho Masihi ache nao ni maasikire alume ao kahi za maut'u gosi
Husbands love your wives the same as Christ loved the church and gave his life for it,Ninwi alume nanwi ahendzeni ache enu dza viryahu Masihi arizhorihendza kanisa hatha akidzilazha kwa ut'uwe
He died to make the church holy He used the telling of the Good News to make the church clean by washing it with water,Naye wahenda vivi ili arithenge k'anda na arisafishe na madzi kukirira kwa neno ra Mulungu
Christ died so that he could give the church to himself like a bride in all her beauty He died so that the church could be holy and without fault with no evil or sin or any other thing wrong in it,Bai Jesu wahenda vizho ili haho andihokudzariimisha ro kanisa mbereze rikale rinang'ala-ng'ala bila maramara hedu minyau hedu ut'u udziwohalana na gago Ela rikale ni eri bila kaila kokosi
And husbands should love their wives like that They should love their wives as they love their own bodies The man who loves his wife loves himself,Kwa ngira iyo bai alume nao suthi maahendze ache ao dza vizho maihendzazho miri yao enye Mut'u ahendzaye muchewe nikukala anadzihendza mwenye
because no one ever hates his own body but feeds and takes care of it And that is what Christ does for the church,Kwani k'akuna mut'u adimaye kuumena mwiriwe hat'u ha vizho iye ni kuurisa na kuutsundzat'o dza viryahu Masihi arihenderazho Kanisa
because we are parts of his body,Mana riro ni mwiriwe na siswi fu vilungo zha uwo mwiriwe
The Scriptures say That is why a man will leave his father and mother and join his wife and the two people will become one,Kwa ut'u uu mut'u andamuricha babaye na mameye agwirane na muchewe na ao airi mandakala mwiri mumwenga
That secret truth is very importantI am talking about Christ and the church,Siri ii be ni bomu ela ninanena dzulu za Masihi na Kanisa
But each one of you must love his wife as he loves himself And a wife must respect her husband,Kwa vizho ninwi nanwi kila mumwenga wenu naamuhendze muchewe dza vizho adzihendzazho ye mwenye Muche naye niamuishimu mulumewe
Children obey your parents the way the Lord wants because this is the right thing to do,Ninwi ahoho asikireni azhazi enu kahi za Bwana kwani iyo ni hachi
The command says You must respect your father and motherThis is the first command that has a promise with it,Mana Muishimu babayo na mameyo ndo amuri ya kwandza yenye ahadi
And this is the promise Then all will go well with you and you will have a long life on the earth,kukala maut'u gandakulokera na undaishi maisha mare haha dhuniani
Fathers dont make your children angry but raise them with the kind of teaching and training you learn from the Lord,Nanwi ano baba nanwi musiatsukize ana enu bule ela arereni kahi za ishima na mafundisho ga Bwana
Slaves obey your masters here on earth with fear and respect And do this with a heart that is true just as you obey Christ,Nwi atumwa nanwi asikireni mabwana enu a haha urumwenguni kwa kuagoha na kuthethema kamare Ahumikireni na moyo mumwenga here kwamba munamuhumikira Masihi
You must do this not just to please your masters while they are watching but all the time Since you are really slaves of Christ you must do with all your heart what God wants,Na musitharize hatha mu hamwenga nao ndo mukadzihendya munaasikira ili mamulike ela hendani here ahendzazho Mulungu Aishimuni na mioyo yenu yosi mana ninwi mu atumwa a Masihi
Do your work and be happy to do it Work as though it is the Lord you are serving not just an earthly master,Ahumikireni kwa nia mbidzo here kwamba munamuhumikira Bwana na si mwanadamu bule
Remember that the Lord will give everyone a reward for doing good Everyone slave or free will get a reward for the good things they do,Manyani kukala mut'u akihenda ridzo Bwana naye andamuriha madzo kala mutumwa hedu mut'u ariye huru
Masters in the same way be good to your slaves Dont say things to scare them You know that the one who is your Master and their Master is in heaven and he treats everyone the same,H'aya ninwi mabwana nanwi ahendereni madzo ao atumwa enu na musiagoshe-goshe Manyani kukala ninwi na ao atumwa enu muna Bwana mumwenga kuko mulunguni naye k'apendhelea mut'u yoyosi
To end my letter I tell you be strong in the Lord and in his great power,Mwisho kamare kalani na nguvu kahi za Bwana na kahi za wadimi wa kwakwe munji
Wear the full armor of God Wear Gods armor so that you can fight against the devils clever tricks,Valani silaha zosi za Mulungu ili mudime kuupinga ujanja wa Shethani
Our fight is not against people on earth We are fighting against the rulers and authorities and the powers of this worlds darkness We are fighting against the spiritual powers of evil in the heavenly places,Kwani k'ahuheha na vit'u zhenye mwiri na mulatso hatha At'u siswi funaheha na athawali na wadimi na nguvu za urumwengu uu wa kiza Kidza funaheha na majeshi ga p'ep'o garigo kuko dzulu
That is why you need to get Gods full armor Then on the day of evil you will be able to stand strong And when you have finished the whole fight you will still be standing,Kwa vizho halani silaha zosi za Mulungu ili siku mbii ikidza mudime kushinda Na mundihokala mudzagamarigiza gosini muenderere kuimat'o
So stand strong with the belt of truth tied around your waist and on your chest wear the protection of right living,Bai imani imara kwa kuuthuwa ujeri wa Mulungu nawo uwo undakala here ukanda wa kudzifunga mumo zhununi mwenu Hendani garyahu garigo ni hachi mbere za Mulungu na iyo hachi indakala here kiziyo cha kathi renu
On your feet wear the Good News of peace to help you stand strong,Kalani thayari-thayari na Uvoro Udzo wa dheri na vizho vindakala ndizho virahu zha maguluni mwenu zha kumwaviza kuimat'o
And also use the shield of faith with which you can stop all the burning arrows that come from the Evil One,Dzulu ya vivi zhosi kalani na kuluhiro na riro kuluhiro rindakala here ngao ya kuizinyira mivi yosi ya moho kula kwa yuyahu Mui
Accept Gods salvation as your helmet And take the sword of the Spiritthat sword is the teaching of God,Uhalireni wokolwi here kofia ra chuma ra kudziziyira kitswa na neno ra Mulungu rikale upanga wenu wa kiroho
Pray in the Spirit at all times Pray with all kinds of prayers and ask for everything you need To do this you must always be ready Never give up Always pray for all of Gods people,Kalani mukivoya kahi za Roho wakathi wosi mavoyo ga kila samupuli na ga mahitaji genu Kalani matso na muenderere kuavoyera at'u osi a Mulungu
Also pray for methat when I speak God will give me words so that I can tell the secret truth about the Good News without fear,Kidza nivoyerani nami ili wakathi nivugulaho kanwa kangu nigerwe maneno ga kunena na nihubiri iryahu siri ya Uvoro Udzo wa Mulungu hasiho woga
I have the work of speaking for that Good News and that is what I am doing now here in prison Pray that when I tell people the Good News I will speak without fear as I should,Vivi ni balozi ariye jela kwa ut'u wa uwo Uvoro Udzo bai nivoyerani ili nidime kuuhubiri hasiho woga here nimalikanazho kuunena
I am sending you Tychicus the brother we love He is a faithful servant of the Lords work He will tell you everything that is happening with me Then you will know how I am and what I am doing,Bai kwa kukala ninahendza mumanye uzima wangu na here niendererazho kuku ninamuhuma Tukiko ndugu yehu muhendzwi ariye ni mwaminifu kahi za kazi ya Bwana adze amumanyise gosi ga kuku

I thank God for the help you gave me while I told people the Good News You helped from the first day you believed until now,Ninahenda vizho kwa viryahu murizhoungana nami na mukinaviza kuhubiri wo Uvoro Udzo kula yo siku murihokuluhira hatha vivi
I am sure that the good work God began in you will continue until he completes it on the day when Jesus Christ comes again,Na nina hakika kukala iye Mulungu ariyeandzisha kazi ii mbidzo ndani mwenu andaenderera nayo muhaka aimarigize siku iryahu Jesu Masihi andihokudza
I know I am right to think like this about all of you because you are so close to my heart This is because you have all played such an important part in Gods grace to menow during this time that I am in prison and whenever I am defending and proving the truth of the Good News,Ninwi be ninamuhendza wakathi wosi ndosa ninamuaza kahi za kila kit'u nihendacho Na vizho be ni karakara kamare kwani Mulungu wafuhasa na akihup'a kazi ya kwakwe fuihende hamwenga Nirihokala ninauhehera Uvoro Udzo na kuuhendya umanywe kukala ni wa jeri ninwi mwanisaidhia Na hatha vivi nirizho haha jela kidza munanisaidhia kuhubiri wo Uvoro Udzo vizho
God knows that I want very much to see you I love all of you with the love of Christ Jesus,Gaga ninenago be ni ga ujeri na Mulungu ni shudhia Ninamuhendza zhomu kidza nina p'ola nanwi na Masihi Jesu nde anihendyaye nihende vizho
This is my prayer for you,Nimuvoyerazho mimi ni kwamba mahendzo genu gaenderere kukula kwenda-kwenda na mumumanye Mulungu zaidhi Kidza mudime kutsagula ridzo na rii
that you will see the difference between what is important and what is not and choose what is important that you will be pure and blameless for the coming of Christ,mana nahendza mumanye kifwahacho kuhendwa ni hicho Kalani aeri hatha siku andihouya Masihi
that your life will be full of the many good works that are produced by Jesus Christ to bring glory and praise to God,Ishini maisha ga kumufwahiza Mulungu kwa ngira ya Masihi ili at'u makiona zho murizho munaishit'o mamulike Mulungu na mamup'e nguma
Brothers and sisters I want you to know that all that has happened to me has helped to spread the Good News,Ndugu zangu nahendza mumanye kukala gosi garigonipata mimi gadzauhendya wo Uvoro Udzo uenderere t'ot'ot'o
All the Roman guards and all the others here know that I am in prison for serving Christ,Maut'u gago ganaviza kuueneza wo Uvoro Udzo Kwani o shikari a mumu nyumbani mwa muthawali na at'u angine osi manamanya kukala ni jela kwa kukala ninamuhumikira Masihi
My being in prison has caused most of the believers to put their trust in the Lord and to show more courage in telling people Gods message,Na kufungwa kwangu kudzaahendya anji a o ndugu zangu mangizwe nguvu mamukuluhire Bwana bila wasiwasi Kwa vizho manahubiri neno ra Mulungu bila woga wowosi
Some people are telling the message about Christ because they are jealous and bitter Others do it because they want to help,Ela hamwenga na vizho hana angine manahubiri Uvoro wa Masihi kwa ut'u wa wivu na kupingana nami Angine manahubiri at'u kwa nia mbidzo
They are doing it out of love They know that God gave me the work of defending the Good News,Aa mahubirio kwa nia mbidzo manavihenda kwa ut'u wa mahendzo Manamanya kukala Mulungu adzanika haha jela kwa ut'u wa kuuhehera wo Uvorowe Udzo
But those others tell about Christ because of their selfish ambition Their reason for doing it is wrong They only do it because they think it will make trouble for me in prison,Ela o angine mamuhubirio Masihi kwa kupingana nami lengo rao ni manithabishe mumu jela
But that doesnt matter What is important is that they are telling people about Christ whether they are sincere or not So I am glad they are doing it,Ela vizho k'avinithethenya bule Nasikira raha zhomu kwa kukala Uvoro Udzo wa Masihi unahubiriwa Makamuhubiri kwa nia mbidzo hedu kwa nia mbii ye bado anahubiriwa thu Na sindaricha kukala na raha kwa vizho
because I know that your prayers and the help the Spirit of Jesus Christ gives me will cause this trouble to result in my freedom,Namanya kukala haha jela nindambola mana munanivoyera na Roho wa Masihi naye ananaviza
I am full of hope and feel sure I will not have any reason to be ashamed I am certain I will continue to have the same boldness to speak freely that I always have I will let God use my life to bring more honor to Christ It doesnt matter whether I live or die,Ut'u niuhendzao na nirio nina th'amaa nawo moyoni mwangu nikuenderera kuhenda kazi ii bila aebu Namala vivi nihende kazi bila woga dza vizho zha hangu chaho ili kahi za hali ii niriyo nimup'e nguma Masihi hatha chamba ndalagwa
To me the only important thing about living is Christ And even death would be for my benefit,Lengo rangu ra kuishi nikumuhumikira Masihi nikifwa kwangu ni faidha
If I continue living here on earth I will be able to work for the Lord But what would I chooseto live or to die I dont know,Nikikala moyo nindahenda kazi ya kuoneka Kwa vizho simanya nitsagule hizho
It would be a hard choice Sometimes I want to leave this life and be with Christ That would be much better for me,kwani zhosi ni vidzo Nahendza zhomu kuhauka haha urumwenguni na nikakale na Masihi mana vizho ni vidzo zaidhi
however you people need me here alive,ela kwa ut'u wenu baha nikale moyo kwandza
I am sure of this so I know that I will stay here and be with you to help you grow and have joy in your faith,Ninamanya kamare kukala nindaima-ima nanwi nyosini ili mukale na raha na muenderere kahi za kumukuluhira Masihi
When I am there with you again you will be bursting with pride over what Christ Jesus did to help me,Na hatha fundihoonana kaheri kuko kwenu mundakala na chausa cha kudzionya kwa gago andigokala Masihi Jesu wanihendera
Just be sure you live as Gods people in a way that honors the Good News of Christ Then if I come and visit you or if I am away from you I will hear good things about you I will know that you stand together with the same purpose and that you work together like a team to help others believe the Good News,Bora thu muhakikishe kukala munathuwa malagizo ga Masihi t'ot'ot'o Ndakudzamulola sindakudzamulola nahendza nisikire kukala mu t'ot'ot'o na mu kit'u kimwenga kahi za kuukuluhira uwo Uvoro Udzo wa Masihi
And you will not be afraid of those who are against you All of this is proof from God that you are being saved and that your enemies will be lost,Musogohe ao mamupingao mana vivi vindaanyesa kukala Mulungu andamwakola ela ao andaanonga-nonga
God has blessed you in ways that serve Christ He allowed you to believe in Christ But that is not all He has also given you the honor of suffering for Christ Both of these bring glory to Christ,Mana mudzagerwa nafasi ya kumuhumikira Masihi si kwa kumukuluhira thu-thu-thu ela hatha kwa kupata thabu kwa ut'u wa iye
You saw the difficulties I had to face and you hear that I am still having troubles Now you must face them too,Vikara nanwi mundadima kuhala muza hamwenga nami kahi za yo k'ondo K'ondo ii ni iyo muriyonona nikiipiga ho nyuma na ni iyo vizho nichereyo kuiheha here musikirazho
Think about what we have in Christ the encouragement he has brought us the comfort of his love our sharing in his Spirit and the mercy and kindness he has shown us If you enjoy these blessings,Bai ninwi mwamukuluhira Masihi naye anamwangiza nguvu Mahendzo ga kwakwe ganamuhendya musikiret'o H'aya zho mbai bai munashirikiana na Roho munahendzana na munaonerana mbazi
then do what will make my joy complete Agree with each other and show your love for each other Be united in your goals and in the way you think,Kwa vizho bai kalani kit'u kimwenga kahi za kuaza na kuhendzana kwenu Kidza mukale na nia mwenga kahi za kila kit'u Mukihenda vizho nindasikira raha sana
In whatever you do dont let selfishness or pride be your guide Be humble and honor others more than yourselves,Mut'u asitengeze kit'u kwa kumupinga mwandziwe hedu kwa kumala kuonewa Kalani ap'ore kidza muaone angine kukala mana mana kumukira ninwi
Dont be interested only in your own life but care about the lives of others too,Musifwahirwe ni kulola maut'u genu enye thu ela lolani hatha ga andziyenu
In your life together think the way Christ Jesus thought,Gahalireni maut'u gosi here zho Masihi Jesu arizhogahalira
He was like God in every way,Ingahokala iye were ni Mulungu k'akalire na lazima ya kuthuwa kukala here Mulungu
Instead he gave up everything even his place with God,Hat'u ha vizho akigaricha gosi kwa kuhendza mwenye na akikala here mutumwa Akizhalwa mudamu na akikala na hali ya mudamu
he humbled himself by being fully obedient to God,Iye wakala mup'ore na akimusikira Mulungu hatha akikubali kukotw'a musalabani akifwa kifwa cha aibu
So God raised him up to the most important place,Kwa ut'u uu Mulungu akimwanula dzulu zhomu na akimup'a dzina bomu kukira madzina mangine gosi
God did this so that every person will bow down to honor the name of Jesus,Bai kwa dzina ra Jesu zhumbe zhosi virizho mulunguni na ts'i na kuzimu vindamupigira mavindi
They will all confess Jesus Christ is Lord,vikubali na vinene lwazu-lwazu kukala Jesu Masihi nde Bwana Nazho vindahenda vivi kwa ut'u wa kumup'a nguma Mulungu Baba
My dear friends you always obeyed what you were taught Just as you obeyed when I was with you it is even more important for you to obey now that I am not there So you must continue to live in a way that gives meaning to your salvation Do this with fear and respect for God,Ahendzwi ninwi mudzakala munamwogoha Mulungu wakathi wosi furihokala hamwenga Bai hatha vivi nirizho siho kidza zidhini kumwagoha Mulungu vizho Hendani vizho kwa chadi na ishima nyinji here at'u mariookolwa maviryazho kuhenda
Yes it is God who is working in you He helps you want to do what pleases him and he gives you the power to do it,mana Mulungu anahenda kazi ndani mwenu Anamuhendya mukale na hamu na nguvu ya kuthuwa malagizoge
Do everything without complaining or arguing,Hendani maut'u gosini bila kunung'unika hedu kunenezana
so that you will be blameless and pure children of God without any fault But you are living with evil people all around you who have lost their sense of what is right Among those people you shine like lights in a dark world,ili musilaumiwe hedu kuonekana na kaila ni mut'u yoyosi Kalani at'u aeri enye maisha gasigo kaila here ana a Mulungu mario kahi za urumwengu wa kiza udziwodzala at'u madzionongeka na mahendzao kuhenda mai Kalani mulangaza mung'ale haha urumwenguni
and you offer them the teaching that gives life So I can be proud of you when Christ comes again You will show that my work was not wastedthat I ran in the race and won,kuno mukiambiriza uvoro urehao uzima Mukihenda vizho nindakala na chausa cha kudzionyera haho Masihi andihouya kaheri Kwani yo kazi niriyohenda kwa nguvu na chadi indakala si ya kihuhu bule
Your faith makes you give your lives as a sacrifice in serving God Maybe I will have to offer my own life with your sacrifice But if that happens I will be glad and I will share my joy with all of you,Ninwi mwamukuluhira Jesu na munamuhumikira Kumuhumikira kuku ni sadaka yenu kwakwe Nami vivi hatha nikalagwa kidza ndahenda raha hamwenga nanwi nyosi mana nindakala nidzakamilisha iyo sadaka yenu
You also should be glad and share your joy with me,Kwa vizho ninwi nanwi kalani na raha na mufwahirwe hamwenga nami
With the blessing of the Lord Jesus I hope I will be able to send Timothy to you soon I will be glad to learn how you are,Bwana Jesu ahendzaho ninakuluhira kukala sindatoa nindamuhuma T'imoth'i kwenu Namala wakathi akiuya kuku adze anip'e moyo kwa kunambiriza uvoro wa kuko
I have no one else like Timothy who genuinely cares for you,Sina mut'u mungine ajaliye maut'u genu kwa moyo mumwenga here T'imoth'i
Others are interested only in their own lives They dont care about the work of Christ Jesus,Angine osi manathuwa gao enye si go ahendzago Jesu Masihi bule
You know the kind of person Timothy is He has served with me in telling the Good News like a son with his father,Hatha ninwi enye munamanya zho arizho T'imoth'i adzanyesa kukala ana mana Iye na mimi hudzahenda kazi ya Uvoro Udzo hamwenga here mut'u na babaye
I plan to send him to you quickly as soon as I know what will happen to me,Kwa vizho bai nina th'amaa kukala nindamuhuma kuko kwenu haho nindihokala nidzamanya ro rindironipata kuku
I am sure the Lord will help me come to you soon,Kidza Bwana adzanihenda nikuluhire kukala mimi mwenye sindatoa bule nindakudza
For now I think I must send Epaphroditus back to you He is my brother in Gods family who works and serves with me in the Lords army When I needed help you sent him to me,Ela vivi kare nidzaona vinavirya nimuhume Epafurodito auye kuko kwenu Iye ni ndugu kahi za Masihi fuhendaye kazi hosini na ni shikari mwandzangu Kidza ni muhumwa wenu muriyemuhuma kunitsundza kwa maut'u gosi nimalago
but now he wants very much to see all of you again He is worried because you heard that he was sick,Vikara ninamuhuma kwenu kaheri kwa kukala ana p'ola nanwi nyosi kidza wabudzyika sana arihomanya kukala mwasikira wakala mukongo
He was sick and near death But God helped him and me too so that I would not have even more grief,Naye were ni mukongo jeri hatha vichache zhenye afwe ela Mulungu akimuonera mbazi akimuhoza Kidza Mulungu k'amuonerere mbazi iye h'akeye ela wanionera mbazi hatha mimi nami kwani kala wafwa vingakala here ro ra ch'ongo kubolwa riro
So I want very much to send him to you When you see him you can be happy And I can stop worrying about you,Kwa vizho nasikira kumuhuma kwenu ili mumonaho kaheri musikire raha na wo wasiwasi unihaukire
Welcome him in the Lord with much joy Give honor to people like Epaphroditus,Bai mukaribisheni na raha yosi kwa kukala iye anamukuluhira Bwana dza vizho ninwi Ishimuni at'u osi mario dza iye
He should be honored because he almost died for the work of Christ He put his life in danger so that he could help me This was help that you could not give me,kwa kukala wamala kufwa kwa kazi ya Masihi Maishage gakala hatharini ili anigere wavizi uriwo ninwi enye k'amukadimire kunigera
And now my brothers and sisters be filled with joy in the Lord It is no trouble for me to write the same things to you again I want to be sure that you are prepared,Vikara ndugu zangu Bwana na amugere raha nyinji Sindatsoka kumwambira gaga kwenda-kwenda mana gandamwikat'o
Be careful of the dogsthose men whose work does only harm They want to cut on everyone who isnt circumcised,Dzimanyirireni na o at'u ai Mino hatha niaiha k'uro Manaamba suthi ungizwe lwembeni ndo uokolwe
But we are the ones who have the true circumcisionwe who worship God through his Spirit We dont trust in ourselves or anything we can do We take pride only in Christ Jesus,Siswi fwangizwa lwembeni kiroho na hunamuvoya Mulungu kukirira na Rohowe na uryahu uzima fuupatao kwa Masihi Jesu funaunyeth'era k'ahuthuwa maut'u ga mwiri
Even if I am able to trust in myself still I dont do it If anyone else thinks they have a reason to trust in themselves they should know that I have a greater reason for doing so,Kala kuna mut'u ariye were ana sababu ya kudziona kukala anadima kudziokola kwa mahendoge be ngere ni mimi Kala at'u ni kuokolwa ni zho marizho be jeri wenye ngere zhanikala
I was circumcised on the eighth day after my birth I am from the people of Israel and the tribe of Benjamin I am a true Jew and so were my parents The law was very important to me That is why I became a Pharisee,Kwa kukala nangizwa lwembeni nirihokala nidzafisha siku nane Ni Muiziraeli wa mbari ya Benjamini Mueburania kidanga Were ni Farisayo ambaye were nathuwa Sheria ya Kiyahudi jeri-jeri
I was so eager to defend my religionthat I persecuted the church And no one could find fault with the way I obeyed the Law of Moses,Na were be nina moho sana wa kutesa kanisa Yo Sheria ya Kiyahudi were naithuwat'o sana bila kukoseza
At one time all these things were important to me But because of Christ I decided that they are worth nothing,Ela gago gosi nirigogaona kukala gana faidha vivi be nagathala kukala ni hasara kwa ut'u wa Masihi
Not only these things but now I think that all things are worth nothing compared with the greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord Because of Christ I lost all these things and now I know that they are all worthless trash All I want now is Christ,Ee kila kit'u nachona ni hasara kwa viryahu kumumanya Masihi Jesu Bwana wangu kurizho na mana zhomu kukira zhosi Kwa ut'u wa iye nidzavitsuha zhosi k'anda here mavi ili nimupate Masihi
I want to belong to him In Christ I am right with God but my being right does not come from following the law It comes from God through faith God uses my faith inChrist to make me right with him,na nigwirane naye ngwa Vikara hachi yangu si ya mimi mwenye kudzipatira kwa kuthuwa Sheria ela ni iryahu niipatayo kumbola kwa Mulungu kwa kumukuluhira Masihi
All I want is to know Christ and the power that raised him from death I want to share in his sufferings and be like him even in his death,Vivi zhosi zhakala ili nimumanye Masihi hamwenga na zo nguvu zirizomufufula Kidza namala niteseke dza vizho arizhoteseka na hatha kala ni kufwa nifwe dza iye
Then there is hope that I myself will somehow be raised from death,ili vichadimikika nifufulwe kula nyufuni
I dont mean that I am exactly what God wants me to be I have not yet reached that goal But I continue trying to reach it and make it mine Thats what Christ Jesus wants me to do It is the reason he made me his,Siamba kukala maut'u gaga nidzagonya kare kugapata hedu kukala vivi be ni kamili kare hatha Ninajeza kwenda-kwenda nigapate kwani Masihi Jesu wanitsagula akinihendya wakwe
Brothers and sisters I know that I still have a long way to go But there is one thing I do I forget what is in the past and try as hard as I can to reach the goal before me,Ndugu zangu sidzihalira kukala nidzavipata kare hatha bule Ut'u niuhendao ni kusahau zhosi virizhokira na kujeza zhadimikikazho kuthuwa cho nindichokipata ko mbere
I keep running hard toward the finish line to get the prize that is mine because God has called me through Christ Jesus to life up there in heaven,Kwa vizho nakot'a malo mwenga kwa mwenga muhaka mwisho ili nikapate yo zawadi ariyo Mulungu anafwihira kuko dzulu kukirira kwa Masihi Jesu
All of us who have grown to be spiritually mature should think this way too And if there is any of this that you dont agree with God will make it clear to you,Siswi hosi hurio at'u azima kiroho nihukale hunaaza kivivi Na hatha kala hangine unaaza kivingine Mulungu andakugunulira hatha ung'alirwe
But we should continue following the truth we already have,Ela hamwenga na vizho nifuhakikishe kukala garyahu furigogapata funagathuwa
Brothers and sisters join together in following my example Also learn by watching those who are living the way we showed you,Ndugu zangu at'u siswi be fwamwanyesa mufano mudzo siswi Kwa vizho uigeni kidza mudzifundishe kula kwa at'u angine maigao wo mufano wehu
There are many who live like enemies of the cross of Christ I have often told you about them And it makes me cry to tell you about them now,Kwani kuna at'u anji mario mahendo gao gananyesa kukala manadharau musalaba wa Masihi Nami si lwa kwandza bule kumwambira dzulu za at'u aa namwambira kare Ela kwa kukala nina utsungu munji ninamwambira kaheri
The way they live is leading them to destruction They have replaced God with their own desires They do shameful things and they are proud of what they do They think only about earthly things,Mulungu wao ni th'amaa za miri yao Manadzionyera maut'u ambago be yo karakara makaona aebu nago Manaaza maut'u ga haha urumwenguni h'akeye Bai mwisho wa at'u ao ni kwanongwa-nongwa kamare
But the government that rules us is in heaven We are waiting for our Savior the Lord Jesus Christ to come from there,Ela sino kwehu ni mulunguni Naswi hunamuthariza kwa hamu mwokoli wehu Bwana Jesu Masihi kumbola kuko
He will change our humble bodies and make them like his own glorious body Christ can do this by his power with which he is able to rule everything,Iye andaigaluza ii miri yehu minyonge ikale here wo mwiriwe mudzo wa nguma kwa kuhumira zo nguvuze ahumirazo kureha vit'u zhosi ts'ini za uthawaliwe
My dear brothers and sisters I love you and want to see you You bring me joy and make me proud of you Continue following the Lord as I have told you,Kwa vizho ndugu zangu ahendzwi ninamuhendza kidza nina p'ola nanwi Ninwi ndinwi raha yangu na zawadi ya kazi yangu Kalani imara kahi za kumuthuwa Bwana
Euodia and Syntyche you both belong to the Lord so please agree with each other,Vikara hana aa ana ache airi aa Yodiya na Sinitiki ninaavoya masikizane kwa kukala osi manamukuluhira Bwana
For this I make a special request to my friend who has served with me so faithfully Help these women They worked hard with me in telling people the Good News together with Clement and others who worked with me Their names are written in the book of life,Na uwe mwandzangu nidzekukuluhira namala uagwizanye aa ana ache Namala uhende vizho kwa kukala aa madzahenda kazi ya Uvoro Udzo kwa chadi Madzaihenda hamwenga nami na Kilemeniti na ahendzi a kazi andzangu osi ambao madzina gao ga kahi za kithabu cha uzima
Always be filled with joy in the Lord I will say it again Be filled with joy,Kalani na raha kahi za Bwana siku zosini nanena kaheri kalani na raha
Let everyone see that you are gentle and kind The Lord is coming soon,Up'ore wenu naumanywe ni at'u osini Bwana a hehi na kuuya
Dont worry about anything but pray and ask God for everything you need always giving thanks for what you have,Musihende wasiwasi na ut'u wowosi Voyerani kila kit'u Mwambireni Mulungu maut'u gosi mumalago kidza mumulazhire muvera
And because you belong to Christ Jesus Gods peace will stand guard over all your thoughts and feelings His peace can do this far better than our human minds,Bai dheri ra Mulungu ambaro k'ahana mudamu adimaye kurielewa nariihendye mioyo yenu na maazo genu gakale kahi za Masihi Jesu
Brothers and sisters continue to think about what is good and worthy of praise Think about what is true and honorable and right and pure and beautiful and respected,Neno ra mwisho ni riri ndugu zangu Akili zenu nazikale zikiaza maut'u madzo maut'u maeri maut'u ga kulikika maut'u ga kufwahiza maut'u ga hachi maut'u ga jeri na maut'u ga ishima
And do what you learned and received from mewhat I told you and what you saw me do And the God who gives peace will be with you,Hendani gosi nirigomufundisha murigogahokera murigonona nikigahenda na murigonisikira nikiganena na Mulungu ahup'aye dheri andakala hamwenga nanwi
I am so happy and I thank the Lord that you have again shown your care for me You continued to care about me but there was no way for you to show it,Nina raha zhomu kahi za Bwana kwa kukala bada ya muda mure mudzanyesa kaheri kukala munanimanya Namanya siku zosi were munahendza munihirikire chochosi mudimacho ela were mwanya ndo k'amuna
I am telling you this but not because I need something I have learned to be satisfied with what I have and with whatever happens,Sinena vivi kwa kukala sina kit'u hatha Mimi nadzifundisha kuthosheka kwa kila hali
I know how to live when I am poor and when I have plenty I have learned the secret of how to live through any kind of situationwhen I have enough to eat or when I am hungry when I have everything I need or when I have nothing,Ninamanya kukala kihuhu na kukala na vinji zhenye Kahi za hali zizi zosi nadzifundisha siri ii ya kukala na maut'u gaga Kukuha kukala na ndzala kukala na vinji na kukala kihuhu chenye
Christ is the one who gives me the strength I need to do whatever I must do,Ninadima kuhenda maut'u gosi kwa kuhumira zo nguvu anip'azo Masihi
But it was good that you helped me when I needed help,Ela hamwenga na vizho mwahenda ut'u udzo kunaviza wakathi nirihokala nina thabu
You people in Philippi remember when I first told the Good News there When I left Macedonia you were the only church that gave me help,Ninwi Afilipi enye munamanya kamare kukala nirihombola jimbo ra Mak'edonia zo siku za kwandza-kwandza za kuambiriza at'u Uvoro Udzo kwere k'akuna kanisa ringine ririrokala na umwenga wa kugerana vit'u na mimi isihokala ro renu
Several times you sent me things I needed when I was in Thessalonica,Kwani hatha nirihokala mudzi wa Th'esalonike kisha mwanihirikira vit'u k'ana nyinji zenye
Really it is not that I want to get gifts from you But I want you to have the benefit that comes from giving,Siamba vivi kwa kukala ninamala vit'u kula kwenu ela namala nione Mulungu adzamuhasa na vit'u kwa zizo mbazi zenu
I have everything I need I have even more than I need I have all I need because Epaphroditus brought your gift to me Your gift is like a sweetsmelling sacrifice offered to God God accepts that sacrifice and it pleases him,Vivi kare nina kila kit'u niricho na haja nacho hatha vidzakira muhaka Nasikira kuvaa na nina muvera kwa zo zawadi zenu nirizozihokera kukirira kwa Epafurodito Wo ut'u udzo uwo be tha ni here muruk'e mudzo wa sadaka kwa Mulungu Nayo anaikubali na inamufwahiza
My God will use his glorious riches to give you everything you need He will do this through Christ Jesus,Na Mulungu wangu andamugera zho mumalazho zhosi kulengana na ushahawe wa nguma kwa ut'u wa zho Masihi Jesu arizhomuhendera ninwi

that was told to you Throughout the world this Good News is bringing blessings and is spreading And thats what has been happening among you since the first time you heard it and understood the truth about Gods grace,Uvoro uwo Udzo muriwouhokera bai unaenderera kutsamuka kahi za urumwengu muzima Kidza unaagaluza at'u dza here zho urizhomugaluza ninwi wakathi murihousikira Kwani murihousikira mwang'alirwa ni uwo ujeri dzulu za viryahu Mulungu arizho na mbazi nyinji na at'u enye dambi
You heard it from Epaphras our dear friend and coworker He is a faithful servant of Christ for us,Uvoro uu Udzo mwaureherwa ni muhendzwi wehu Epafura ariye hunahenda kazi ya Mulungu hamwenga Mut'u iye Epafura ni muhumiki mwaminifu wa Masihi ahumikaye kwa ut'u wenu
He also told us about the love you have from the Spirit,Bai iye ndiye ariyehumanyisa viryahu Roho Mweri arizhomuhendya muahendze at'u a Mulungu
Since the day we heard these things about you we have continued praying for you This is what we pray,Kwa kukala fwasikira uwo uvoro wenu at'u siswi be k'ahudzaricha kumuvoyera Mulungu ili amumanyise garyahu maut'u ahendzago muhende Kidza amup'e ulachu wosi wa kimulungu na amuhendye mung'alirwe ni maut'u ga kiroho
that this will help you live in a way that brings honor to the Lord and pleases him in every way that your life will produce good works of every kind and that you will grow in your knowledge of God,Kwani vizho ndo vindizhomuhendya mutoe here at'u a Mulungu maviryazho kutoa Vivi vindamufwahiza Mulungu kahi za kila ngira na mundakala at'u a mahendo madzo kwenda-kwenda Kidza mundakala munaenderera kumumanya Mulungu zaidhi na zaidhi
that God will strengthen you with his own great power so that you will be patient and not give up when troubles come,Bai hunamuvoyera Mulungu akaze kumwangiza nguvu na zo nguvuze nyinji za nguma ili hatha mupatwaho ni mashaka muvumirire na raha
and give thanks to the Father He has made you able to have what he has promised to give all his holy people who live in the light,Kidza mukale mukimulazhira muvera Mulungu kwa viryahu arizhomuhendya mupate muthalo hamwenga na at'ue kahi za wo uthawaliwe wa mulangaza
God made us free from the power of darkness And he brought us into the kingdom of his dear Son,Kwani iye wafwamboza kula kizani na akifwangiza kahi za uthawali wa Mwanawe muhendzwi
The Son paid the price to make us free In him we have forgiveness of our sins,Bai yuyu Mwanawe ndiye ariyefukombola na hukisamehewa dambi zehu
No one can see God,Vizho arizho Masihi zhenye ndizho arizho ye Mulungu ariye k'aoneka Na yuyu Masihi ndiye mwenye wadimi dzulu za kila kit'u kirichoumbwa
Through his power all things were made,Kukirira kwa Masihi Mulungu waumba vit'u zhosi virizho dzulu na ts'i vionekazho na visizhooneka Athawali osi na kila aina ya uthawali uriwo dzulu na haha ts'i vivi zhosi zhaumbwa kukirira kwakwe na kwa ut'u wa iye
The Son was there before anything was made,Iye Masihi wakalako kare hatha kabila vit'u zhosi kuumbwa naye ndiye ariye dzulu za kila kit'u
He is the head of the body which is the church,Nde kitswa cha mwiri yani kanisa Iye ndiye chandzo cha maisha masha na ndiye wa kwandza kufufuka na kuishi kare na kare Kwa vizho iye yu dzulu za kila kit'u
God was pleased for all of himself to live in the Son,Kwani Mulungu waonat'o kuishi kamare-kamare kahi za Masihi
And through him God was happy to bring all things back to himself again,Kidza kukirira kwa iye Mulungu wahendya vit'u zhosi vipatane naye Bai kwa ut'u uwo akihenda kukale na dheri kahi za iye na vit'u zhosi virizho dzulu na ts'i kukirira na milatso ya Masihi iriyomwagika musalabani
At one time you were separated from God You were his enemies in your minds because the evil you did was against him,Ninwi nanwi were mu kure na Mulungu Maazo genu gamuhendya mukale mahadhuie na kidza mukihenda maut'u mai-mai
But now he has made you his friends again He did this by the death Christ suffered while he was in his body He did it so that he could present you to himself as people who are holy blameless and without anything that would make you guilty before him,Ela vikara bai Mulungu wamupatanisha ninwi na iye kwa kumuhendya Jesu akale mudamu na afwe musalabani Naye Mulungu wahenda vivi ili mukiima mbereze mukale mu aeri hasiho kaila kokosi ka kumuhendya mupigwe ulongo
And that is what will happen if you continue to believe in the Good News you heard You must remain strong and sure in your faith You must not let anything cause you to give up the hope that became yours when you heard the Good News That same Good News has been told to everyone on earth and thats the work that I Paul was given to do,Na vizho ndo vindizhokala bora thu muenderere kumukuluhira Masihi na kuima imara Kidza yo th'amaa iriyomwangira wakathi murihosikira wo Uvoro Udzo isimwambole bule Uvoro uwo wahubiriwa kila hat'u na mimi P'aulo ni muhubiri wa uwo uvoro uwo
I am happy in my sufferings for you There is much that Christ must still suffer And I gladly accept my part of those sufferings in my body for the good of his body the church,Vivi nina raha kwa mateso nigapatago kwa ut'u wenu Kidza kwa mwiri wangu ninakamilisha mateso ga Masihi arigopata kwa ut'u wa wo mwiriwe yani kanisare
I became a servant of the church because God gave me a special work to do This work helps you My work is to tell the complete message of God,Bai Mulungu wanip'a kazi ii ya kuahumikira at'ue ili nihubiri neno ra kwakwe kwenu ninwi
This message is the secret truth that was hidden since the beginning of time It was hidden from everyone for ages but now it has been made known to Gods holy people,Uvoro uu Udzo miaka na miaka were k'akuna aumanyaye mana were ni siri ela bai vivi Mulungu waung'aziza at'ue
God decided to let his people know just how rich and glorious that truth is That secret truth which is for all people is that Christ lives in you his people He is our hope for glory,Mulungu wahenda vizho kwa kukala were anahendza ninwi at'u murio k'amu Ayahudi mung'alirwe ni siri ii bomu ya nguma Siri yenye ni kwamba Masihi a ndani zenu na iye ndiye amwangizaye th'amaa ya kupata muthalo kahi za yo ngumaye
So we continue to tell people about Christ We use all wisdom to counsel every person and teach every person We are trying to bring everyone before God as people who have grown to be spiritually mature in Christ,Kwa vizho bai hunamuhubiri Masihi kwa at'u Naswi kahi za kuhubiri hunahumira ulachu wosi kuonya at'u osi na kuafundisha Lengo ra vivi ni kwamba mwisho kila mut'u andiyeima mbere za Mulungu akale adzakumala kahi za Masihi
To do this I work and struggle using the great strength that Christ gives me That strength is working in my life,Nami ninahenda kazi iyo kwa chadi kwa kuhumira zo nguvu nyinji za Masihi zirizo zinahenda kazi ndani mwangu
I want you to know that I am trying very hard to help you And I am trying to help those in Laodicea and others who have never seen me,Mimi ninahendza mumanye viryahu ambazho ninahenda kazi kwa chadi kwa ut'u wenu na kwa ut'u wa o at'u mariomukuluhira Masihi ko Laodikia na kwa ut'u wa o angine osi mario k'amadzanona na matso
I want them to be strengthened and joined together with love and to have the full confidence that comes from understanding I want them to know completely the secret truth that God has made known That truth is Christ himself,Lengo rangu ni kuhakikisha kukala madzangizwa moyo na ma kit'u kimwenga kwa kuko kuhendzana Ninahendza makale na hakika kamare-kamare na kila kit'u kukirira na kuko kumanyat'o iyo siri ya Mulungu ambayo siri ii ni iye Masihi mwenye
In him all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are kept safe,Na ni kahi za Masihi h'akeye ndo funadima kukala alachu na fukang'alirwa ni wo uvoro wa Mulungu uriwo una th'amani bomu
I tell you this so that no one can fool you by telling you ideas that seem good but are false,Ninamwambira maut'u gaga ili hasidze mut'u akamukenga na maneno madzo-madzo hatha mukagwira go mafundisho ga ulongo
Even though I am far away my thoughts are always with you I am happy to see your good lives and your strong faith in Christ,Idzaho mimi ni kure nanwi moyo wangu u kuko kwenu Nina raha kwa viryahu nirizhopata habari kukala mu kit'u kimwenga na kidza mudzagwira kumukuluhira Masihi hasiho kulola nyuma
You accepted Christ Jesus as Lord so continue to live following him,Bai vizho murizhomukubali Masihi akale Bwana wenu endererani kuishi here at'u mariomukuluhira Masihi Jesu maviryazho kuishi
You must depend on Christ only drawing life and strength from him Just as you were taught the truth continue to grow stronger in your understanding of it And never stop giving thanks to God,At'u ninwi mwaukuluhira wo uvoro wa jeri wa Masihi na mukiugwira ngwa dza here muhi uriwo na miziji mire Bai endererani kumukuluhira na kidza garyahu murigofundishwa ho chaho dzuluze bai endererani kugagwira kuno munamulazhira Mulungu muvera munji kwa gago arigomuhendera
Be sure you are not led away by the teaching of those who have nothing worth saying and only plan to deceive you That teaching is not from Christ It is only human tradition and comes from the powers that influencethis world,Musiriche mut'u akamwangamiza vuva na elimu isiyo mana Maut'u gaga ganaoneka kukala ni ulachu ela ko sozho Gago ni mafundisho ga mudamu na ni maadha ga kidhunia si kula kwa Masihi bule
I say this because all of God lives in Christ fully even in his life on earth,Mana mafundisho ga Masihi ni ga ujeri kwa kukala ye Masihi ariyezhalwa na akiishi haha dhuniani bai ni Mulungu kamare-kamare na ana nguvu zosi
And because you belong to Christ you are complete having everything you need Christ is ruler over every other power and authority,Bai kwa kukala ninwi na Masihi mu kit'u kimwenga muna kila kit'u kidimacho kumwaviza kiroho Kwani kila aina ya nguvu iriyo haha urumwenguni i ts'ini za Masihi
In Christ you had a different kind of circumcision one that was not done by human hands That is you were made free from the power of your sinful self That is the kind of circumcision Christ does,Ninwi murihomukuluhira Masihi iye wazimboza ziryahu nguvu zirizokala zikimwangiza th'amaa mbii dza viryahu konde ritoswazho na kutsufwa wakathi mut'u angizwaho lwembeni
When you were baptized you were buried with Christ and you were raised up with him because of your faith in Gods power Gods power was shown when he raised Christ from death,Kwani wakathi murihobat'izwa mwakala here kwamba mudzazikwa hamwenga na Masihi na mukifufuka hamwenga naye kwa kukala mwakuluhira kahi za zo nguvu za Mulungu zirizomufufula Masihi
You were spiritually dead because of your sins and because you were not free from the power of your sinful self But God gave you new life together with Christ He forgave all our sins,Mwakala mwafwa kiroho kwa zizo dambi na mwere munathawalwa ni th'amaa zenu mbii Bai Mulungu akimufufula hamwenga na Masihi Akihusamehe dambi zehu zosini furizokala fwazihenda
Because we broke Gods laws we owed a debta debt that listed all the rules we failed to follow But God forgave us of that debt He took it away and nailed it to the cross,Mulungu wahala iryahu k'esi yehu akiitsuha Wahala garyahu mashithaka gehu gosi furigokala funago na akigafuta wakathi uryahu Masihi arihosulubiwa musalabani
He defeated the rulers and powers of the spiritual world With the cross he won the victory over them and led them away as defeated and powerless prisoners for the whole world to see,Bai kukirira na kuko kusulubiwa kwa Masihi Mulungu wazizhoga-zhoga ziryahu nguvu mbii zirizokala zinathawala Wazihoka wadimi na akizigwiza aibu lwazu-lwazu
So dont let anyone make rules for you about eating and drinking or about Jewish customs festivals New Moon celebrations or Sabbath days,Kwa vizho k'ahana cha mut'u kumwamba ati ni makosa kurya chakurya fulani hedu kunwa kinywaji fulani Na kidza k'ahana cha mut'u kumwamboza makosa kwa kukala k'amusherehekea zo sherehe za Kiyahudi here siku ya kuzumwa mwezi na siku za sabato
In the past these things were like a shadow that showed what was coming But the new things that were coming are found in Christ,Maut'u gaga gosi were ni here kivurivuri cha mut'u thu ela ye mut'u mwenye ni iye Masihi ariyekudza
Some people enjoy acting as if they are humble and love to worship angelsThey always talk about the visions they have seen Dont listen to them when they say you are wrong because you dont do these things It is so foolish for them to feel such pride because it is all based on their own human ideas,At'u masimuhendye mukakosa yo zawadi yenu kwa kumwamba ati suthi mudzitsereze na muavoye malaika ndo muipate yo zawadi Manadzionya na kuamba maona maono dzulu za maut'u gaga Ela kudzionya kwao k'akuna mana kwa kukala gago madzionyerago ni maut'u marigogazhala enye Manadzihendya at'u mario nikudzitsereza ela ko sozho
They dont keep themselves under the control of the head Christ is the head and the whole body depends on him Because of Christ all the parts of the body care for each other and help each other So the body is made stronger and held together as God causes it to grow,At'u dza vivi aa k'amakit'u kimwenga na iye Masihi ambaye nde kitswa Na cho kitswa ndicho kidzichogwirana na uwo mwiri Na zho vilungo vidzagwizanywa hamwenga na iyo misihaye na bai vinakula kulengana na zho ahendzazho ye Mulungu
You died with Christ and were made free from the powers that influence this world So why do you act as if you still belong to the world I mean why do you follow rules like these,Ninwi mwafwa hamwenga na Masihi naye akimwika huru na maadha ga kidhunia Viandzadze kaheri muchere kuthuwa sheria dza zizi za
Dont eat this Dont taste that Dont touch that,Usigwire kit'u fulani Usirye chakurya fulani na Usithathe kugut'a kit'u fulani
These rules are talking about earthly things that are gone after they are used They are only human commands and teachings,Sheria dza zizi ni za kibinadamu na zinahusu vit'u ambazho vikihumirwa nikukira
These rules may seem to be wise as part of a madeup religion in which people pretend to be humble and punish their bodies But they dont help people stop doing the evil that the sinful self wants to do,Kwa ndze sheria zizi zinaonekana kukala ni mbidzo kuthuwa kwa kukala zinamuhendya mut'u aonekane here kwamba adzadzambozeza kwa Mulungu kamare Anadzitsereza na hatha anadzilasha-lasha vit'u Ela bai sheria zizi k'azina nguvu za kumuhendya mut'u ashinde th'amaa mbii za wo mwiriwe
You were raised from death with Christ So live for what is in heaven where Christ is sitting at the right hand of God,Dza viryahu Mulungu arizhomufufula Masihi na akimup'a maisha masha ninwi nanwi wamwamboza kula kahi za go maisha genu ga kapindi na akimup'a maisha masha Bai kwa kukala mwapata maisha masha hamwenga na Masihi maazo genu na mahendo genu nagakale dza vizho Mulungu ahendzazho kuko mulunguni ariko Jesu Naye akeresi mukono wa kurya wa Mulungu luhande lwa nguvu na ishima nyinji
Think only about what is up there not what is here on earth,Kalani na k'ihu isiyogoma ya kuhenda garyahu Mulungu ahendzago muhende kahi za go maisha masha Go mahendo mai-mai murigokala mukihenda kabila k'amudzamumanya Mulungu bai musigaaze kamare
Your old self has died and your new life is kept with Christ in God,Ninanena vivi kwa kukala ninwi mu here at'u mariofwa go maisha genu ga kapindi gagonya kukira na vivi munaishi maisha masha dza vizho zha Masihi aishizho na Mulungu kuko dzulu Vivi kare maisha genu masha gafitswa kahi za Masihi
Yes Christ is now your life and when he comes again you will share in his glory,Ela haho Masihi ariye ndiye mwandzo wa maisha ga kwenu andihouya haha dhuniani na kuonewa lwazu-lwazu ni kila mut'u ninwi nanwi mundaonewa hamwenga naye kahi za nguma ya kwakwe
So put everything evil out of your life sexual sin doing anything immoral letting sinful thoughts control you and wanting things that are wrong And dont keep wanting more and more for yourself which is the same as worshiping a false god,Kwa vizho bai maut'u gosi mai-mai murigokala nago ho kapindi kabila k'amudzamukuluhira Masihi galageni kamare-kamare Musidzangize kahi za namuna yoyosi ya uzindzi hedu kuhenda maut'u maitsi-maitsi Kidza musithamani kuhenda namuna yoyosi ya maut'u mai-mai Musikale na dzitso kwani mut'u mwenye dzitso ni kumwika Mulungu k'anda na akavikiza mbere zho vit'u hatha akakala ni here avivoyaye
God will show his anger against those who dont obey himbecause they do these evil things,Na mut'u yoyosi andiyehenda maut'u gago nidzigomwambira k'oro za Mulungu zindakala dzuluze
You also did these things in the past when you lived like them,Gaga ndo maut'u murigokala mukihenda haho murihokala k'amudzamumanya Masihi
But now put these things out of your life anger losing your temper doing or saying things to hurt others and saying shameful things,Ela vivi bai musigahende kaheri garicheni kamare Musikale na k'oro kidza musiatsukirirwe at'u angine na musiazire Musikale na maneno ga kupothoka-pothoka na musiatsindzire andziyenu
Dont lie to each other You have taken off those old clothesthe person you once were and the bad things you did then,Musikengane bule mana yo mitoere mii ya kapindi mwairicha
Now you are wearing a new life a life that is new every day You are growing in your understanding of the one who made you You are becoming more and more like him,na muchangira kahi za maisha masha Mulungu wamwangiza kahi za maisha gaga masha kidza anaenderera kumugaluza kwenda-kwenda ili mukale here iye na mukaze kumumanya zaidhi
In this new life it doesnt matter if you are a Greek or a Jew circumcised or not It doesnt matter if you speak a different language or even if you are a ScythianIt doesnt matter if you are a slave or free Christ is all that matters and he is in all of you,Bai kahi za maisha gaga masha k'akuna tofauti yoyosi kahi za Muyahudi na mut'u ariye si Muyahudi Kidza k'akuna tofauti yoyosi kahi za mut'u ariyengizwa lwembeni na ariye k'adzangizwa lwembeni H'aya zho mbai k'akuna tofauti yoyosi kahi za mut'u ariyeshoma na mut'u ariye k'ashomere K'akuna tofauti ya mutumwa na mut'u ariye si mutumwa Mana Masihi nde kila kit'u na a kahi za osi
God has chosen you and made you his holy people He loves you So your new life should be like this Show mercy to others Be kind humble gentle and patient,Bai kwa kukala Mulungu anamuhendza wamutsagula mukale at'ue kidza akimuthenga mumuhumikire Kalani na mbazi na mioyo midzo Visithoshe kalani at'u a kudzitsereza na ap'ore na kidza mukale at'u akuvumirira
Dont be angry with each other but forgive each other If you feel someone has wronged you forgive them Forgive others because the Lord forgave you,Vumiriranani Mwandziyo akikukosera musamehe dza vizho Bwana arizhomusamehe ninwi
Together with these things the most important part of your new life is to love each other Love is what holds everything together in perfect unity,Na dzulu za maut'u gaga gosi hendzanani kwani mukihendzana mundakala kit'u kimwenga na mundaishi na dheri
Let the peace that Christ gives control your thinking It is for peace that you were chosen to be together in one bodyAnd always be thankful,Ninwi mu here vilungo zha Masihi Mulungu wamutsagula na akimuhendya mukale na dheri kahi zenu Kwa vizho bai ro dheri ra Masihi narithawale mioyo yenu Kalani na muvera
Let the teaching of Christ live inside you richly Use all wisdom to teach and counsel each other Sing psalms hymns and spiritual songs with thankfulness in your hearts to God,Gago mafundisho murigopata dzulu za Masihi nagalongoze maazo genu mahendo genu na maneno genu Fundishanani na kanyanani Maut'u gaga bai gahendeni kwa akili Kidza mulikeni Mulungu kwa kumuimbira maira ga kumulika iye Kahi za gago gosi mulazhireni muvera Mulungu
Everything you say and everything you do should be done for Jesus your Lord And in all you do give thanks to God the Father through Jesus,Kwa kukala siswi fu at'u a Masihi maneno na mahendo ga kwehu lazima ganyese kukala fu at'u a Masihi jeri Siku zosi mulazhireni muvera Mulungu Baba kukirira kwa dzina ra Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi
Wives be willing to serve your husbands This is the right thing to do in following the Lord,Ninwi ache asikireni alume enu kwani vizho ndo Bwana ahendzazho

Children obey your parents in everything This pleases the Lord,Ahoho asikireni azhazi enu kahi za kila ngira kwani vizho ndizho vimufwahizazho Bwana

Servants obey your masters in everything Obey all the time even when they cant see you Dont just pretend to work hard so that they will treat you well No you must serve your masters honestly because you respect the Lord,Atumwa asikireni mabwana enu a haha ts'i kahi za kila ngira Ahumikireni kwa moyo mumwenga kila wakathi bila kujali kala manamulolera hedu k'amamulolera Vivi zhosini vihendeni kwa ut'u wa kumuheshimu Bwana Jesu

When we brought the Good News to you we came with more than words We brought that Good News with power with the Holy Spirit and with the sure knowledge that it was true Also you know how we lived when we were with you We lived that way to help you,Kwani wo Uvoro Udzo furiwomurehera were si wa maneno mahuhu bule ela fwaureha kwa nguvu za Roho Mweri na kidza iye Roho Mweri akikala shudhia kwenu kukala zho furizhonena kwenu were ni zha ujeri Ninwi munamanya viryahu furizhokala fukiishi haryahu furihokala fu hosini At'u siswi fwaishi namuna iyo kwa ut'u wenu

You became an example to all the believers in Macedonia and Achaia,Kwa vizho mukinyesa mufano mudzo kwa at'u osi maaminio kahi za jimbo ra Mak'edonia na ra Akaia
The Lords teaching has spread from you throughout Greece and beyond In fact your faith in God has become known everywhere so we never have to tell anyone about it,Na vivi be kula kwenu ninwi ro neno ra Bwana ridzatsamuka kila hat'u si Mak'edonia na Akaia thu-thu-thu Kwani kila hat'u fwendaho at'u manafwambiriza viryahu murizho munamukuluhira Mulungu t'ot'ot'o Hatha k'avimala funene rorosi kuambiriza at'u
People everywhere are already telling the story about the good way you accepted us when we were there with you They tell about how you stopped worshiping idols and changed to serve the living and true God,Ao at'u osi manasumurira zho murizhofuhokera haryahu furihomutsemberera na viryahu murizhoricha kuhasa vizuka na mukimuthuwa Mulungu wa jeri na ariye moyo
And you began waiting for Gods Son to come from heaventhe Son God raised from death He is Jesus who saves us from Gods angry judgment that is coming,Kidza mananena dzulu za viryahu murizho munamuthariza Mwana wa Mulungu adze kula mulunguni Mulungu wamufufula iye mwanawe Jesu kula kuzimu na iye Mwana nde ahuthizhaye na cho kitai cha Mulungu kidzacho

Before we came to you people in Philippi abused us with insults and made us suffer You know all about that And then when we came to you many people there caused trouble for us But our God gave us the courage we needed to tell you his Good News,Here mumanyazho kabila k'afudzadza kuko kwenu Th'esalonike were fudzahenderwa maut'u mai-mai na kuhukanwa kuko Filipi Idzaho were fudzadengerekwa ni mahadhui namuna iyo Mulungu wehu wafugera moyo vizho fukidzamwambiriza wo Uvoro Udzo wa kwakwe
When we encourage people to believe the Good News its not out of wrong motives We are not trying to trick or fool anyone,Kwa vizho munadima mukamanya kamare kukala were k'afumbiriza at'u Uvoro Udzo na malengo ga kilongo hedu maazo mai-mai hedu hatha kuakenga
No we did it because God is the one who gave us this work And this was only after he tested us and saw that we could be trusted to do it So when we speak we are only trying to please God not anyone else He is the one who can see what is in our hearts,Hatha bule siku zosi hunanena here Mulungu ahendzazho hunene kwa kukala wafwona hunafwaha na akihukuluhira kwa kufugera Uvoro Udzo K'afumala kufwahiza at'u sino humalacho ni kumufwahiza ye Mulungu aipimaye mioyo yehu
You know that we never tried to influence you by saying nice things about you We were not trying to get your money We had no greed to hide from you God knows that this is true,Here mumanyazho siswi k'afudzire kwenu na maneno ga kutsama gasigo mana hedu kuhumira maneno ga kuzia choyo Hatha ye Mulungu ni shudhia
We were not looking for praise from peoplenot from you or anyone else,At'u siswi k'afujezere kumala nguma kula kwa mut'u yoyosi si kula kwenu na si kula kwa mut'u mungine
When we were with you as apostles of Christ we could have used our authority to make you help us But we were very gentlewith you We were like a mother caring for her little children,At'u siswi fwakala ap'ore dza viryahu mimut'u atsundzazho anae

Also we always thank God because of the way you accepted his message You heard it and accepted it as Gods message not our own And it really is Gods message And it works in you who believe,Sababu nyingine ya kumulazhira muvera Mulungu ni kwamba furihomurehera neno ra Mulungu mwasikira na mukirihokerat'o K'amuuhokerere here uvoro wa mudamu ela mwauhokera here uvoro wa Mulungu na vizho ndo urizho bai Kwani uvoro uwo unahenda kazi ndani mwenu ninwi mukuluhirao
Brothers and sisters you are just like Gods churches in JudeaI mean that you were treated badly by your own people just as those believers in Christ Jesus were treated badly by other Jews,Ndugu zangu mu here makanisa ga Mulungu garigo kahi za Masihi Jesu ko Judea Kwani zho murizhoteswa ni at'u a kwenu enye ndo makanisa gago garizhoteswa ni Ayahudi
the same Jews who killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets And they forced us to leave their country They are not pleasing to God and they are against everyone else,Ayahudi maalaga manabii makimwalaga Bwana Jesu na makihuinga siswi K'amamufwahiza Mulungu na ni avara kwa kila mut'u
And they are trying to stop us from teaching those who are not Jews They dont want them to be saved But they are just adding more and more sins to the ones they already have Now the time has come for them to suffer Gods anger,Hatha majeza kuhuziza husiambirize Uvoro Udzo aryahu at'u mario si Ayahudi Uvoro uriwo ungaaokola Bai kwa kuhenda vizho zo dambi zao be manazongeza kwenda-kwenda Ela vivi bai cho kitai cha Mulungu kidzaagwerera

You know all that we told you to do by the authority of the Lord Jesus,Kwani ninwi munagamanya gago furigomufundisha kwa wadimi wa Bwana Jesu
God wants you to be holy He wants you to stay away from sexual sins,Mulungu anahendza mukale at'u aeri Kwa vizho musizinge
God wants each one of you to learn to control your own body Use your body in a way that is holy and that gives honor to God,Kila mumwenga wenu ninwi alume ni amanye kudzizulia na wo mwiriwekwa ngira ya ueri na ya ishima
Dont let your sexual desires control you like the people who dont know God,Si kwa kuhenda th'amaa mbii here at'u masiomumanya Mulungu mahendazho
Never wrong any of your fellow believers or cheat them in this way The Lord will punish those who do that We have already told you this and warned you about it,Kwa vizho k'ahana cha mut'u kumukosera nduguye hedu kumwika ndiya kwa uzindzi Kwani here furizhomwambira kimbere Bwana andamuadhibu mut'u dza vizho iye
God chose us to be holy He does not want us to live in sin,Kwani Mulungu k'afihire fuishi kikolo-kikolo ela fuishi maisha maeri
So anyone who refuses to obey this teaching is refusing to obey God not us And God is the one who gives you his Holy Spirit,Na kila andiyevudhya maadho gaga k'amuvudhya mudamu ela anamuvudhya iye Mulungu amugeraye Roho mweri wa kwakwe
We dont need to write to you about having love for your brothers and sisters in Christ God has already taught you to love each other,Ela dzulu za maut'u ga kuhendzana kindugu k'avimala ni mwandhikire bule Mana Mulungu wamufundisha kare viryahu muviryazho kuhendzana
In fact you love all the believers in Macedonia We encourage you now brothers and sisters to show your love more and more,Na kwandza vivi ndo muhendazho kwa o ndugu osini matoao kahi za jimbo ra Mak'edonia Ela hamwenga na vizho hunamukokot'era ndugu muenderere kuhendzana zaidhi na zaidhi
Do all you can to live a peaceful life Mind your own business and earn your own living as we told you before,Lengo renu narikale ni kuishi maisha mazizimu mukilola maut'u genu enye na kuhenda kazi na kurya jasho renu here hurizhomwambiriza ho nyuma
If you do these things then those who are not believers will respect the way you live And you will not have to depend on others for what you need,Kwa ngira ii k'amundamuremera mut'u yoyosi kwa mahitaji ga kwenu na aryahu at'u mario k'amamumanya Mulungu nao mandamuishimu
Brothers and sisters we want you to know about those who have died We dont want you to be sad like other peoplethose who have no hope,Ndugu zangu funamala mumanye ujeri dzulu za ao mariofwa ili musikale na kigondzi dza here ao at'u mario k'amana th'amaa yoyosi marizho
We believe that Jesus died but we also believe that he rose again So we believe that God will raise to life through Jesus any who have died and bring them together with him when he comes,Kwa kukala siswi funakuluhira kukala Jesu wafwa na akifufuka Na funakuluhira kukala andihouya iye Jesu Mulungu andaareha hamwenga naye aryahu at'u osi mariofwa na were manamukuluhira Masihi
What we tell you now is the Lords own message Those of us who are still living when the Lord comes again will join him but not before those who have already died,Maut'u gaga funaganena kukirira kwa gago arigonena Bwana kukala andihouya Bwana siswi furio moyo fundakwenda dzulu bada ya ao at'u mariofwa kuhuthangulia
The Lord himself will come down from heaven with a loud command with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God And the people who have died and were in Christ will rise first,Kwa kukala iye Bwana mwenye andathima kula mulunguni Na andihokala anathima Mulungu andanena na mumiro mubomu Mumiro wa malaika mubomu undasikirwa na gunda ra Mulungu rindarira At'u osi mariofwa kahi za Masihi mandafufuka na mbere
After that we who are still alive at that time will be gathered up with those who have died We will be taken up in the clouds and meet the Lord in the air And we will be with the Lord forever,Badaye siswi fundiokala fu moyo wakathi uwo fundakundzumanyika hamwenga na ao mandiokala madzafufuka fumutsangire Bwana mainguni Naswi fundakala hamwenga naye kare na kare
So encourage each other with these words,Kwa vizho geranani moyo na gaga maneno gaga
Now brothers and sisters we dont need to write to you about times and dates,Ndugu zangu k'avina haja ni muorere dzulu za wakathi gandihokalira maut'u gaga
You know very well that the day when the Lord comes again will be a surprise like a thief who comes at night,Kwani ninwi enye munavimanyat'o zho zha kukala siku ya kudza Bwana Jesu indakala gafula dza viryahu mwivi adzazho usiku
People will say We have peace and we are safe At that time destruction will come to them quickly like the pains of a woman giving birth And those people will not escape,Wakathi at'u mandihoamba kukala Kuhurire kidza kuna usalama Wakathi uwo wenye ndo kiryahu kitai kindihoagwerera Vindakala dza viryahu zha mwanamuche aandzwazho ni utsungu gafula k'amandathia bule
But you brothers and sisters are not living in darkness And so that day will not surprise you like a thief,Ela ninwi ndugu zangu k'amukizani bule hatha yo siku ya kudza Bwana imudzirire gafula dza viryahu zha mwivi
You are all people who belong to the light You belong to the day We dont belong to the night or to darkness,Ninwi nyosi mu ana a mulangaza na mu ana a mutsana k'afuana a usiku hedu ana a kiza
So we should not be like other people We should not be sleeping We should be awake and have selfcontrol,Kwa vizho fusilale bule here at'u angine mahendazho ela na fukale matso na fudzizulie na mai
People who sleep sleep at night People who drink too much drink at night,Mana ao at'u malalao malala usiku na ao mareyao mareya usiku-usiku
But we belong to the day so we should control ourselves We should wear faith and love to protect us And the hope of salvation should be our helmet,Ela siswi furio a mutsana na fudzizulie na mai Kumukuluhira Mulungu na kuahendza at'u nakukale here ngao kathini Irya th'amaa ya kukala siku ya mwisho fundaokolwa yo ikale here kofia ra chuma fudzirorivala kitswani
God did not choose us to suffer his anger God chose us to have salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,Kwani Mulungu k'afihire afuusire matsungu ela wafiha afuokole kukirira kwa Bwana Jesu Masihi
Jesus died for us so that we can live together with him It is not important if we are alive or dead when Jesus comes,Iye Masihi wahufwerera ili siku andihokudza kaheri fuishi hamwenga naye k'avijalisha andakudzafuthekeza fwafwa kare hedu fuchere moyo
So encourage each other and help each other grow stronger in faith just as you are already doing,Kwa ut'u uwo bai vizho muhendazho vivi kare bai endererani nazho Geranani moyo na mwavizane
Now brothers and sisters we ask you to recognize the value of those who work hard among youthose who as followers of the Lord care for you and tell you how to live,Ndugu zangu funamuvoya muaishimu o at'u mahendao kazi kahi zenu na mario dzulu zenu kahi za Bwana na mamukanyao
Show them the highest respect and love because of the work they do,Ahendzeni zhomu sana na muagere ishima kwa ut'u wa kazi yao Ishini na dheri kahi zenu
We ask you brothers and sisters to warn those who will not work Encourage those who are afraid Help those who are weak Be patient with everyone,Ndugu zangu ninamukokot'era kukala muakanye at'u akaha muangize nguvu o madziofwa mioyo na muavize at'u masio mukotse Avumirireni at'u osi
Be sure that no one pays back wrong for wrong But always try to do what is good for each other and for all people,Lolani mut'u asimurihize mwandziwe uwi kwa uwi Ela wakathi wosi henderanani madzo na pia muahendere madzo hatha at'u osi angine
Always be full of joy,Kalani na raha siku zosi
Never stop praying,Muvoyeni Mulungu bila kusisa
Whatever happens always be thankful This is how God wants you to live in Christ Jesus,Lazhani muvera wakathi wosi kwa kila kit'u kwa kukala vizho ndo Mulungu ahendzazho ninwi murio kahi za Masihi Jesu muhende
Dont stop the work of the Holy Spirit,Musimukonye-konye Roho Mweri
Dont treat prophecy like something that is not important,Musivudhye maneno ga unabii
But test everything Keep what is good,Gajezeni maut'u gosini gonya mugwire gago garigo ni madzo thu-thu-thu
and stay away from everything that is evil,Dziikeni kure na uthiriri wa kila samupuli
We pray that God himself the God of peace will make you purebelonging only to him We pray that your whole selfspirit soul and bodywill be kept safe and be blameless when our Lord Jesus Christ comes,Bai Mulungu afugeraye dheri naamuutsuse kahi za kila ngira Naaike roho zenu na miri yenu na akili zenu kure na kila namuna ya kaila muhaka yo siku andiyouya Jesu Masihi
The one who chose you will do that for you You can trust him,Ye Mulungu ariyemwiha ni mwaminifu na andavihenda zhosi vizho
Brothers and sisters please pray for us,Fuvoyereni ndugu zangu
Give all the brothers and sisters the special greeting of Gods people,Alamuseni ndugu osini kwa kuadonera kahi za ueri
I tell you by the authority of the Lord to read this letter to all the believers there,Ninamuamuru kahi za dzina ra Bwana muishome baruwa ii kwa ndugu osini kuko
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you,Nema ya Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi naikale hamwenga nanwi
Greetings from Paul Silas and Timothy,Mimi P'aulo ninandhika baruwa ii hamwenga na Silivanona T'imoth'i Baruwa ii ninamwandhikira ninwi at'u a kanisa ra Th'esalonike murio mu a Mulungu Babiyehu na Bwana Jesu Masihi
Grace and peace to you from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,Bai nema na dheri kula kwa Mulungu Baba na Bwana Jesu Masihi navikale kwenu
We thank God for you always And thats what we should do because you give us good reason to be thankful Your faith is growing more and more And the love that every one of you has for each other is also growing,Ndugu zangu at'u siswi k'afuna budhi kumushukuru Mulungu wakathi wosi kwa ut'u wenu Na vizho ndo viviryazho mana kuluhiro renu na kuhendzana kwenu vinakaza kwangezeka
So we tell the other churches of God how proud we are of you We tell them how you patiently continue to be strong and have faith even though you are being persecuted and are suffering many troubles,Kwa vizho ninwi ndinwi murio funadzionyera wakathi fusumuriraho na gago makanisa mangine ga Mulungu Funadzionyera viryahu murizho munaenderera kumukuluhira Mulungu hatha idzaho munakirira mateso na maut'u manji makomu-makomu
This is proof that God is right in his judgment He wants you to be worthy of his kingdom Your suffering is for that kingdom,Maut'u gaga gananyesa kukala Mulungu anahukumu kwa ngira ya hachi Na kwa ut'u uwo bai ninwi munafwaha kwangira kahi za uthawali wa Mulungu uriwo ndo umuhendyao munateswa
God will do what is right He will punish those who are causing you trouble,Mulungu ni wa hachi kwa vizho aryahu mario manamutesa ninwi ao nao andaariha mateso
And he will bring relief to you who are troubled He will bring it to you and to us when the Lord Jesus comes from heaven for all to see together with his powerful angels,Ninwi murio vivi munateswa Mulungu andamuhula uwo muzigo uwo na siswi naswi andafuhendera vizho Gaga gandahendeka wakathi Bwana Jesu andihombola kula mulunguni Naye andakudza na malaikae a nguvu hamwenga na moho
He will come with burning fire to punish those who dont know Godthose who refuse to accept the Good News about our Lord Jesus,Bai haho akidza andaangiza akili aryahu at'u masiomumanya Mulungu na mario k'amaukubali uryahu Uvoro Udzo wa Bwana wehu Jesu
They will be punished with a destruction that never ends They will not be allowed to be with the Lord but will be kept away from his great power,Mandahukumiwa kwa kunongwa kare na kare Mandathengwa kure na Bwana na kure na zo nguvuze za nguma
This will happen on the day when the Lord Jesus comes to receive honor with his holy people He will be admired among all who have believed And this includes you because you believed what we told you,Maut'u gaga gandahendeka wakathi Bwana wehu Jesu andihokudzahokera nguma kula kwa at'ue aeri na osi mariomukuluhira mandafwahirwa Nanwi bai mundakala kahi za kundi riri mana mwaukuluhira uwo ushahidhi furiwomwambiriza dzuluze
That is why we always pray for you We ask our God to help you live the good way he wanted when he chose you The goodness you have makes you want to do good And the faith you have makes you work We pray that with his power God will help you do these things more and more,Kwa ut'u uwo kila wakathi funamuvoyera ili Mulungu amuthale kukala mudzaishi gago maisha arigomulagiza muishi Pia funamuvoyera Mulungu amup'e nguvu ili mwadime kuthimiza kila kazi mbidzo mumalayo kuhenda kwa ut'u wa kuko kukuluhira kwenu
Then the name of our Lord Jesus will be honored because of you and you will be honored because of him This can happen only by the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ,Hunamuvoyera gago ili mudime kumup'a nguma ye Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi na ninwi nanwi mugerwe nguma kahi za iye Vizho zhosi navikale kukirira na nema ya Mulungu wehu na Bwana Jesu Masihi
Brothers and sisters we have something to say about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ We want to talk to you about that time when we will meet together with him,Vikara dzulu za kuuya kwa Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi haha urumwenguni na viryahu fundizhokundzumanywa hamwenga kumutsangira funamala fumwambe vivi ndugu
Dont let yourselves be easily upset or worried if you hear that the day of the Lord has already come Someone might say that this idea came from usin something the Spirit told us or in something we said or in a letter we wrote,Kuna at'u mario manaamba kukala iryahu siku andiyokudza Bwana yafika kare Bai hatha makaamba kukala Roho waanyesa hedu mazhambirwa ni mut'u hedu mavishoma kahi za baruwa kula kwehu kidza siakuluhireni Masimubabaishe na kumwangiza wasiwasi wa bule
Dont be fooled by anything they might say That day of the Lord will not come until the turning away from God happens And that day will not come until the Man of Evil appears the one who belongs to hell,Musikengwe bule iyo siku ya kudza Bwana k'aindafika muhaka wakathi at'u mandihomukahala Mulungu zhomu na yuyahu Mubandi wa Sheria za Mulungu iye mwana wa wangamiki ang'azwe lwazu-lwazu
He will stand against and put himself above everything that people worship or think is worthy of worship He will even go into Gods Templeand sit there claiming that he is God,Bai andihokudza yuyu Mubandi wa Sheria andapinga kila kit'u kiifwacho mulungu hedu kivoywacho ni anadamu Andadzika dzulu ya zhosi na ende kahi za ro Hekalu ra Mulungu akadzitangaze kukala iye nde Mulungu
I told you before that all these things would happen Remember,Maut'u gaga namwambiriza kare wakathi nirihokala hamwenga nanwi hedu mudzasahau
And you know what is stopping that Man of Evil now He is being stopped now so that he will appear at the right time,Kiryahu kitumacho hatha k'adzadza ye Mubandi wa Sheria ni kwamba uryahu wakathiwe wa kudza k'audzafika bule Na vivi munavimanya pia
The secret power of evil is already working in the world now But there is one who is stopping that secret power of evil And he will continue to stop it until he is taken out of the way,Kwani ye mubandi wa sheria za Mulungu be vivi anahenda kazi kare kisiri-siri na andaenderera vizho muhaka yuyahu ariye nde adziyemuzulia auswe
Then that Man of Evil will appear But the Lord Jesus will kill him with the breath that comes from his mouth The Lord will come in a way that everyone will see and that will be the end of the Man of Evil,Bai andihokala adzauswa iye Mubandi wa Sheria andaonyeswa lwazu Badaye Bwana Jesu andahenda kusoha thu naye vikale vidzamutoka na andazinonga nonga zo nguvuze kwa iyo nguma ya kuko kudzakwe
When that Man of Evil comes it will be the work of Satan He will come with great power and he will do all kinds of false miracles signs and wonders,Vikara kabila k'adzanongwa-nongwa yuyu Mubandi wa Sheria andahumira nguvu za Shethani kuhendera miujiza na maut'u ga kwangalaza-ngalaza ga ulongo
The Man of Evil will use every kind of evil to fool those who are lost They are lost because they refused to love the truth and be saved,Naye andahumira uthiriri wa kila samupuli kuakenga aryahu at'u mario makwendani kahi za kifwa cha kare na kare At'u aa manakahala kuukuluhira uwo ujeri wa Jesu Masihi uriwo ndiwo ungawoaokola
So God will send them something powerful that leads them away from the truth and causes them to believe a lie,Vikara kwa kukala manaukahala uwo ujeri wa Jesu Masihi Mulungu andaahendya mangamizwe vuva na makengwe ni yuyu Mubandi wa Sheria
They will all be condemned because they did not believe the truth and because they enjoyed doing evil,Kwa ut'u uwo aryahu mario manatsamirwa ni uthiriri na k'amendzi kuukuluhira ujeri wa Jesu Masihi mandahukumiwa
Brothers and sisters you are people the Lord loves And we always thank God for you Thats what we should do because God chose you to be some of the first peopleto be saved You are saved by the Spirit making you holy and by your faith in the truth,Ela siswi k'afuna budhi kumushukuru Mulungu kila wakathi kwa ut'u wenu ndugu zangu muhendzwao ni Bwana mana iye wamutsagula hangu chahoWamutsagula ili amwakole kwa kuhendywa aeri ni iye Roho Mweri na kwa kuukuluhira ujeri wa Jesu Masihi
God chose you to have that salvation He chose you by using the Good News that we told you You were chosen so that you can share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ,Mulungu wamwiha kukirira na uwo Uvoro Udzo furiwomwambiriza ili mukale na fungu kahi za iyo nguma ya Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi
So brothers and sisters stand strong and continue to believe the teachings we gave you when we were there and by letter,Kwa vizho ndugu zangu fungani nguwo ziume na mugagwire kuuma garyahu furigomufundisha na mulomo na garyahu furigohenda kumwandhikira baruwani
And now brothers and sisters pray for us Pray that the Lords teaching will continue to spread quickly And pray that people will give honor to that teaching the same as happened with you,Vikara mwisho kamare namala niambe vivi ndugu zangu fuvoyereni ili uwo Uvoro wa Bwana uenere haraka kila hat'u Kidza at'u mauishimu dza viryahu murizhouishimu wakathi murihouhokera
And pray that we will be protected from crooked and evil people Not everyone believes in the Lord you know,Pia fuvoyereni ili Mulungu afuthizhe na at'u athiriri na mario ni ahendi a mai mana si osi makuluhirao
But the Lord is faithful He will give you strength and protect you from the Evil One,Ela Bwana ni mwaminifu riro andironena ndo ahendaro Bai iye andamup'a nguvu na amuchinge na yuyahu muthiriri
The Lord gives us confidence that you are doing what we told you and that you will continue to do it,Bwana anafuhenda k'afuna wasiwasi kamare dzulu zenu kwa kukala kila fumwambiraro munarihenda na mundaenderera kurihenda kwenda-kwenda
We pray that the Lord will cause you to feel Gods love and remember Christs patient endurance,Bwana naamulongoze mumanye viryahu Mulungu arizho na mahendzo na viryahu Masihi arizhovumirira mateso
Brothers and sisters by the authority of our Lord Jesus Christ we tell you to stay away from any believer who refuses to work People who refuse to work are not following the teaching that we gave them,Vikara ndugu funamulagiza kahi za dzina ra Bwana Jesu Masihi kukala Musigwirane na ndugu yoyosi ariye ni mukaha na k'athuwa gago malagizo furigomup'a
You yourselves know that you should live like we do We were not lazy when we were with you,Mana munamanya kamare kukala munavirya kuiga miishire yehu At'u siswi k'afukalire akaha wakathi furihokala hamwenga nanwi
We never accepted food from anyone without paying for it We worked and worked so that we would not be a burden to any of you We worked night and day,Na kidza k'afuna furichorya bila kukirihira Hat'u ha vizho fwabigilika kuhenda kazi usiku na mutsana kusudhi fusikale muzigo kwenu
We had the right to ask you to help us But we worked to take care of ourselves so that we would be an example for you to follow,Naswi fwahenda vivi si kwamba were k'afuna hachi ya kuvizwa ni ninwi were funayo ela fukihenda vizho ili ninwi mupate mufano
When we were with you we gave you this rule Whoever will not work should not be allowed to eat,Wakathi furihokala hamwenga nanwi fwamulagiza kukala mut'u ariye k'endzi kuhenda kazi hatha kurya nako asirye
We hear that some people in your group refuse to work They are doing nothing except being busy in the lives of others,Funanena vivi kwa kukala funasikira kukala angine kahi zenu manadzikeresira thu K'amana rorosi mahendaro hatha kazi yao ni kwangirira maut'u ga at'u
Our instruction to them is to stop bothering others to start working and earn their own food It is by the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ that we are urging them to do this,Bai funaalagiza na kuangiza moyo at'u dza vizho ao kahi za dzina ra Bwana Jesu Masihi kukala mahende kazi kwa up'ore ili marye jasho rao enye
Brothers and sisters never get tired of doing good,Na ninwi ndugu nanwi musitsoke bule kuhenda madzo
If there are some there who refuse to do what we tell you in this letter remember who they are Dont associate with them Then maybe they will feel ashamed,Mut'u yoyosi ariye k'andagagwira gaga malagizo gehu mumu baruwani mulolenit'o na musigwirane naye kaheri ili agwirwe ni haya
But dont treat them as enemies Counsel them as fellow believers,Ela hatha hamwenga na vizho musimuhalire here hadhui ela mukanyeni here ndugu
We pray that the Lord of peace will give you peace at all times and in every way The Lord be with you all,Bai hunamuvoyera Bwana amuhendye mukale na dheri siku zosini na kahi za kila ngira Iye nde ahendyaye mut'u akakala na dheri H'aya bai Bwana naakale hamwenga nanwi
Heres my greeting in my own handwriting,Mimi P'aulo nandhika salamu zizi na mukono wangu wenye Na uu ndo muvano wangu kahi za baruwa zangu zosi Vivi ndo nindhikazho
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all,Bai nema ya Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi naikale hamwenga nanwi nyosi
Greetings from Paul an apostle of Christ Jesus I am an apostle by the command of God our Savior and Christ Jesus our hope,Kula kwa P'aulo muhumwi wa Masihi Jesu ariyetsagulwa kwa amulo ra Mulungu mwokoli wehu na Bwana wehu Masihi Jesu ariye vivi nde th'amaa yehu
To Timothy a true son to me in the faith we share,Baruwa ii namwandhikira T'imoth'i ambaye ni mwanangu mwenye kahi za ro kuluhiro huriro naro H'aya bai Baba Mulungu hamwenga na Bwana wehu Masihi Jesu namamuhase zhomu na mamuhendye kukala at'u enye mbazi na mamup'e dheri
When I went to Macedonia I asked you to stay in Ephesus Some people there are teaching things that are not true and I want you to tell them to stop,Vikara nirihokala ninenda Mak'edonia nakwambira uthuwe kukala Efeso Na hatha vivi nazho nahendza uthuwe kukala kuko Kwani kuna at'u mario manafundisha maut'u ga ulongo Bai ambire mariche
Tell them not to give their time to meaningless stories and to long lists of names to prove their family histories Such things only cause arguments They dont help Gods work which is done only by faith,Akanye mariche kungamiza wakathi wao na uvoro wa ngano na kidza mariche kufundisha dzulu za minyilili mire ya akare Maut'u gaga k'agana faidha yoyosi Badala ya kuaviza o at'u mamanye mupango wa Mulungu kwa kukuluhira go ganaahendya manenezane
My purpose in telling you to do this is to promote lovethe kind of love shown by those whose thoughts are pure who do what they know is right and whose faith in God is real,Lengo ra kukwamba uhende vizho ni kwamba nahendza at'u makale na mahendzo Mahendzo gaga ganapatikana kwa mut'u mwenye moyo mwaruhe ariye k'ana wasiwasi mo moyoni na ana kuluhiro ra jeri
But some have missed this key point in their teaching and have gone off in another direction Now they talk about things that help no one,At'u angine mavilozera mongo vivi na machangamika ngira na makithuwa masumuriro ga kizuzu
They want to be teachers of the lawbut they dont know what they are talking about They dont even understand the things they say they are sure of,At'u aa manahendza kufundisha sheria ya Mulungu ela ko o enye kare k'amavimanyat'o zho manenazho na kidza gago marigo manaamba chaa ndo karakara nago k'amagaelewa bule
We know that the law is good if someone uses it right,Yo sheria here fumanyazho si kwamba ni mbii ni mbidzo na ni mbidzo ikihumirwa here vimalikanazho
We also know that the law is not made for those who do what is right It is made for those who are against the law and refuse to follow it The law is for sinners who are against God and all that is pleasing to him It is for those who have no interest in spiritual things and for those who kill their fathers or mothers or anyone else,Kidza here fumanyazho sheria k'aiikirwa at'u ahachi Sheria iikirwa aryahu at'u mario ni athiriri na k'amasikira at'u mario k'amakimulungu na enye dambi Kidza iikirwa at'u mario si aeri na mario k'amendzi maut'u ga Mulungu Pia sheria iikirwa aryahu at'u malagao babizao na mamizao enye na angine ambao manalaga at'u
It is for those who commit sexual sins homosexuals those who sell slaves those who tell lies those who dont tell the truth under oath and those who are against the true teaching of God,Iyo sheria vizho iikirwa aryahu at'u mario ni azindzi na mario ni mashoga pia iikirwa at'u maiyao at'u na kuaguza here atumwa Sheria pia iikirwa at'u mario kazi yao ni kukenga andziyao na kumboza ushahidhi wa ulongo iyo vizho iikirwa aryahu osini ambao manenda kinyume na mafundisho ga jeri
That teaching is part of the Good News that our blessed God gave me to tell In it we see his glory,Mafundisho gago ganagwirana na wo Uvoro Udzo wa nguma uriwo ni wa Mulungu ariye ni wa kulikwa Uu uvoro uu waikwa mikononi mwangu ni iye Mulungu
I thank Christ Jesus our Lord because he trusted me and gave me this work of serving him He gives me strength,Bai namulazhira muvera Bwana wehu Masihi Jesu adziyeenderera kunip'a nguvu kahi za kazi ii Iye Bwana wanilola na akinona ninakuluhirika na yo kaziye bai akinitsagula nimuhumikire
In the past I insulted Christ As a proud and violent man I persecuted his people But God gave me mercy because I did not know what I was doing I did that before I became a believer,Idzaho haho nyuma nakala nikimuhukana na kumutesa na kumutsuha-tsuha nyomba Ela bai Mulungu akinionera mbazi mana gago were nagahenda jeri ela hasiho kumanya nahenda makosa na kidza were sidzangwe kukuluhira
But our Lord gave me a full measure of his grace And with that grace came the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus,Bai ye Bwana Mulungu wehu akinanyesa kukala ananihendza jeri-jeri akinihenda nimukuluhire Jesu nikale na mahendzo kahi za ye Masihi Jesu
Here is a true statement that should be accepted without question Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners and I am the worst of them,Bai ye Masihi Jesu wakudza mumu urumwenguni kuokola at'u enye dambi Na ut'u uu be ni jeri kamare na unakuluhirika kila mut'u anavirya authuwe na aukubali mana mimi mwenye were ni mudambi kuriko at'u osi
But I was given mercy so that in me Christ Jesus could show that he has patience without limit Christ showed his patience with me the worst of all sinners He wanted me to be an example for those who would believe in him and have eternal life,Ela kwa ut'u uwo bai nikionerwa mbazi mimi ambaye were k'akuna anifikaye kwa dambi ili ye Masihi Jesu anihumire here mufano wa viryahu adimazho kumuvumirira mut'u na pia aryahu mandiokudzamukuluhira na mapate uzima wa kare na kare nao mapate mufano
Honor and glory to the King who rules forever He cannot be destroyed and cannot be seen Honor and glory forever and ever to the only God Amen,Vikara naagerwe nguma na aishimiwe iye Mulungu ariye muthawali wa kare na kare ariye k'adima kufwa k'adima kuonewa na matso na iye thu nde Mulungu h'akeye Bai Mulungu iye naagerwe nguma na aishimiwe hatha kare na kare H'aami
Timothy you are like a son to me What I am telling you to do agrees with the propheciesthat were told about you in the past I want you to remember those prophecies and fight the good fight of faith,Vikara T'imoth'i mwanangu namala nikulagize ut'u fulani kulingana na wo unabii uriwombozwa dzuluzo Bai uwe gathuwirize gago garigonenwa ili udime kuipigat'o yo k'ondo
Continue to trust in God and do what you know is right Some people have not done this and their faith is now in ruins,Hakikisha udzarigwira kurunya ro kuluhiro na ukale mo moyoni k'una wasiwasi Kwani ma kuko at'u mario k'amasikizire mioyo yao inaambadze bai kwa kuhenda vizho ro kuluhiro rao rikinongeka-nongeka
Hymenaeus and Alexander are men like that I have given them to Satan so that they will learn not to speak against God,Mufano wa at'u dza vizho ao ni Humenayo na Alekizanda mario naalazha kwa Shethani mangizwe akili ili masinene kufuru kaheri
First of all I ask that you pray for all people Ask God to bless them and give them what they need And give thanks,Vikara dzulu za mavoyo nikahendza kwandza kamare muavoyere at'u osini Avoyereni aryahu mario mana mahitaji na kidza muvoyere at'u angine-angine pia Mbozani muvera kwa Mulungu kwa ut'u wa at'u osini
You should pray for rulers and for all who have authority Pray for these leaders so that we can live quiet and peaceful liveslives full of devotion to God and respect for him,Avoyereni athawali na at'u angine osi mario ni vilongozi Vivi vindafuhendya futoet'o na dheri hasiho fujo yoyosi na futoe kimulungu na kieri
This is good and pleases God our Savior,Fukihenda vivi fundakala funahenda ut'u udzo kidza uriwo unamufwahiza ye Mulungu mwokoli wehu
God wants everyone to be saved and to fully understand the truth,Mulungu anahendza at'u osi maokolwe na madze mamanye ujeri
There is only one God and there is only one way that people can reach God That way is through Christ Jesus who as a man,Mana kahi za Mulungu na mudamu be hana mut'u mumwenga adimaye kumugwizanya mudamu na ye Mulungu na mut'u yuyu ni Masihi Jesu Kuna Mulungu mumwenga na mugwizanyi mumwenga
gave himself to pay for everyone to be free This is the message that was given to us at just the right time,Bai iye Masihi Jesu wadzilazha mwenye kwamba aakombole at'u osi Uwo ndo ushahidhi uriwombozwa kahi za uwo wakathi uriwoikwa kwamba Mulungu anahendza at'u osi maokoke
And I was chosen as an apostle to tell people that message I am telling the truth I am not lying I was chosen to teach those who are not Jews to believe and understand the truth,Nami natsagulwa kwa ut'u uwo Natsagulwa nikale muhumwi na muhubiri na mwalimu niafundishe o at'u mario si Ayahudi uvoro dzulu za kuluhiro na dzulu za ujeri Vizho nidzizhonena be si ulongo bule ni ujeri uhuhu
I want the men everywhere to pray Men who lift their hands in prayer must be devoted to God and pleasing to him They must be men who keep themselves from getting angry and having arguments,Vikara namala niambe vivi nahendza kila hat'u o alume mavoye kuno madzagoloza mikono mieri ko dzulu Bai ni mahende vivi hasiho k'oro hedu kunenezana
And I want the women to make themselves attractive in the right way Their clothes should be sensible and appropriate They should not draw attention to themselves with fancy hairstyles or gold jewelry or pearls or expensive clothes,H'aya o anaache nao namala niaadhe kivivi ao ni mavale nguwo zirizo zinavirya Kidza za ishima na mazivalet'o si kwa kusonga nyere na kuvala vit'u zha dhahabu na zha lulu hedu hatha kuvala nguwo za gali
But they should make themselves attractive by the good things they do That is more appropriate for women who say they are devoted to God,hat'u ha vizho ni mavale mahendo madzo mahendo ambago ganavirya kwa anaache maambao kukala manamwagoha Mulungu
A woman should learn while listening quietly and being completely willing to obey,Mwanamuche na ahurire na adzitsereze kamare na afundishwe
I dont allow a woman to teach a man or tell him what to do She must listen quietly,K'ahana ruhusa ya mwanamuche yoyosi kufundisha alume hedu hatha kuakeresiza Mwanamuche anavirya anyamale zii
because Adam was made first Eve was made later,Mana ariyeumbwa kimbere ni Adamu ndo Hawa akiumbwa
Also Adam was not the one who was trickedIt was the woman who was tricked and became a sinner,Iye Adamu siye ariyekengwa ni Shethani bule ariyekengwa ni Shethani na akimukosera Mulungu ni iye muche
But women will be saved in their work of having children They will be saved if they continue to live in faith love and holiness with sensible behavior,Ela hatha hamwenga na vizho anaache mandaokolwa kukirira na kuzhala ana bora thu maenderere kukuluhira makale na mahendzo na makale aeri na enye lau
It is a true statement that anyone whose goal is to serve as an elderhas his heart set on a good work,Bai mut'u ahendzaye kazi ya ubishopu anathamani kazi mbidzo Na musemo uu unakuluhirika
An eldermust be such a good man that no one can rightly criticize him He must be faithful to his wifeHe must have selfcontrol and be wise He must be respected by others He must be ready to help people by welcoming them into his home He must be a good teacher,Vikara namala niambe vivi bishopu suthi akale ni mut'u ariye k'alaumiwa ni at'u na akale ana muche mumwenga thu-thu-thu H'aya zho mbai iye niakale ni mut'u ariye na kiasi na adimaye kudziunya Mut'u iye niakale ana t'abia mbidzo na akale pia ni mutseki ko kwakwe mudzini H'aya iye vizho niakale ni mut'u ariye anamanya kufundishat'o
He must not drink too much and he must not be someone who likes to fight He must be gentle and peaceful He must not be someone who loves money,Asikale ni mut'u wa kudzinwera divai kukira muhaka hedu mut'u wa kuhendza k'ondo hatha mut'u iye niakale ni mup'ore na ase k'ondo na mut'u H'aya ut'u ungine ni kwamba asikale mut'u wa kuhendza p'esa
He must be a good leader of his own family This means that his children obey him with full respect,Kidza niakale wo mudziwe anawadima o anae nimakale akinena manamusirikiza na manaishima
If a man does not know how to lead his own family he will not be able to take care of Gods church,Mana chamba mudziwe wenye thu k'awadima h'aya ro kanisa ra Mulungu andaritsundzadze
An elder must not be a new believer It might make him too proud of himself Then he would be condemned for his pride the same as the devil was,Bai bishopu asikale mut'u ariye gago ga Mulungu wagamanya dzuzi-dzuzi niakale ni mut'u ariyemumanya Mulungu kapindi mana chamba go ga Mulungu wagamanya dzuzi-dzuzi be anadima akathimwa ni kudzikut'ula na mwisho akapatwa ni dza gago garigomupata Shethani
An elder must also have the respect of people who are not part of the church Then he will not be criticized by others and be caught in the devils trap,H'aya zho mbai iye suthi akale ni mut'u ariye ananenwat'o ni at'u mario ndze ya ro kuluhiro ili kwamba asidze akalaumiwa na mwisho akangira kahi za muhego wa Shethani
In the same way the men who are chosen to be special servants must have the respect of others They must not be men who say things they dont mean or who spend their time drinking too much They must not be men who will do almost anything for money,Vikara dzulu za aryahu ahumiki a kanisani ao nao manavirya makale dza o andziyao Nimakale ni at'u mario mana t'abia mbidzo na mario makinena ut'u be ni jeri Masikale ni at'u mario kazi yao ni kunwa divai na masikale at'u enye dzitso na p'esa
They must follow the true faith that God has now made known to us and always do what they know is right,Ao ahumiki manavirya kuthuwa wo ujeri dzulu za kuluhiro ujeri ambawo waikwa lwazu Bai ni mauthuwe uwo na mioyo myaruhe
You should test them first Then if you find that they have done nothing wrong they can be special servants,Kidza ut'u ungine ni kwamba ao ahumiki ni majezwe kwandza malolwet'o bai makionekana kukala k'amana kaila h'aya manadima kuhenda kazi yao ya uhumiki
In the same way the womenmust have the respect of others They must not be women who speak evil about other people They must have selfcontrol and be women who can be trusted in everything,Aryahu ache aoao nao suthi makale ni at'u enye t'abia mbidzo si kuchuka-chuka at'u Ao be kahi za maut'u gosi manavirya madziunye na makale aaminifu
The men who are special servants must be faithful in marriageThey must be good leaders of children and their own families,Muhumiki yoyosi wa kanisa suthi akale ana muche mumwenga h'akeye na kidza akale anaarerat'o anae na analongoza mudziwe t'ot'ot'o
Those who do well as special servants are making an honorable place for themselves And they will feel very sure of their faith in Christ Jesus,Mana ao mahendao kazi ya uhumiki t'ot'ot'o nikuishimiwa ni at'u na kidza manadima kunena dzulu za imani yao kahi za Masihi Jesu hasiho woga wowosi
I hope I can come to you soon But I am writing this to you now,Bai mimi nina th'amaa kukala k'avindatoa fundaonana ela bai ninakuorera ii baruwa ili
so that even if I cannot come soon you will know how people should live in the familyof God That family is the church of the living God And Gods church is the support and foundation of the truth,vikikala nindatoa uwe udime kumanya viryahu ambazho at'u manavirya kuhenda kahi za yo nyumba ya Mulungu ambayo ni ro kanisa ra Mulungu ariye moyo ambaro ni musinji na kidza ni muhongohi udziwozulia wo ujeri
Without a doubt the secret of our life of worship is great,Iyo siri ya maut'u ga Mulungu be ni ya kwangalaza sana na k'ahana mut'u adimaye kuvikanaiza vivi
The Spirit clearly says that in the last times some will turn away from what we believe They will obey spirits that tell lies And they will follow the teachings of demons,Vikara Roho wa Mulungu ananena lwazu-lwazu kamare kukala siku za mwisho kuna at'u angine mario mandaricha kukuluhira na mathuwe roho zirizo zinakenga at'u na kidza mathuwe mafundisho ga p'ep'o
Those teachings come through people who tell lies and trick others These evil people cannot see what is right and what is wrong It is like their conscience has been destroyed with a hot iron,Mafundisho gaga ganaenezwa ni at'u madzihendyao mario be ni alongo kidza zo dhamiri zao zafwanene kamare tha ni here kwamba zahenda kuochwa na moho vizho
They say that it is wrong to marry And they say that there are some foods that people must not eat But God made these foods and those who believe and who understand the truth can eat them with thanks,At'u aa manafundisha at'u kukala ni makosa mut'u kuhala hedu kuhalwa kidza manaambira at'u kukala zhakurya fulani masivirye bule Ela iye Mulungu bai waviumba vivi zhakurya viriwe na muvera ni ao mario manamukuluhira Mulungu na kidza mario manaumanya ujeri
Everything that God made is good Nothing he made should be refused if it is accepted with thanks to him,Mana kila kirichoumbwa ni Mulungu ni kidzo na k'ahana cha kutsufwa bule bora thu kihokerwe na voyo ra muvera
Everything he created is made holy by what he has said and by prayer,Kwani ro neno ra Mulungu na go mavoyo nikuhenda cho kit'u kicho kikakala kieri
Tell this to the brothers and sisters there This will show that you are a good servant of Christ Jesus You will show that you are made strong by the words of faith and good teaching you have followed,Bai ukiaadha o ndugu maut'u gago undakala u muhumiki mudzo wa Masihi Jesu adziyererwat'o kahi za maneno ga kuluhiro na mafundisho ga ujeri udzigoenderera kugathuwa
People tell silly stories that dont agree with Gods truth Dont follow what these stories teach But teach yourself to be devoted to God,Ela bai kala kure na maut'u ga ngano za kizuzu zirizo si za kimulungu hat'uhe dzizoweze kumogoha Mulungu
Training your body helps you in some ways But devotion to God helps you in every way It brings you blessings in this life and in the future life too,Mazoezi ga vilungo zha mwiri si kwamba ni mai hatha ela bai mazoezi ga kiroho gana faidha kila upande Kwani mut'u ahendaye mazoezi ga kiroho vindamup'a uzima vivi kare na hatha mbereni
Here is a true statement that should be accepted without question,Maneno gago nidzigoganena ni ga ujeri na ganavirya kuhokerwa kamare na gakuluhirwe
We hope in the living God the Savior of all people In particular he is the Savior of all those who believe in him This is why we work and struggle,Vizho ndo hatha funasirima na kubigilika kwa kukala hudzaika th'amaa yehu kwa Mulungu ariye moyo na ariye ni mwokoli wa anadamu osi Ela bai ni mwokoli hasa kwa aryahu mamukuluhirao
Command and teach these things,Bai mut'u uwe ap'e malagizo gaga na uafundishe
You are young but dont let anyone treat you as if you are not important Be an example to show the believers how they should live Show them by what you say by the way you live by your love by your faith and by your pure life,Mut'u asikuvudhye bule kwa kukala u muhoho ela hat'u ha vizho uwe kala mufano kwa aryahu mario manamukuluhira Mulungu Kala mufano kahi za manenogo kahi za t'abiayo kahi za kuhendza at'u kahi za kukuluhira na kahi za ueri
Continue to read the Scriptures to the people encourage them and teach them Do this until I come,Humira wo wakathiwo kwa chadi kuashomera Maoro at'u kuhubiri na pia kuafundisha Henda vizho muhaka nindihokudza kuko
Remember to use the gift you have which was given to you through a prophecywhen the group of elders laid their hands on you,Usikiriche bule cho kigerwacho cha kiroho kiricho ndani mwako Kigerwa kicho wakigerwa wakathi harihombola unabii dzuluzo na aryahu azee a kanisa makikuikira mikono
Continue to do these things Give your life to doing them Then everyone can see that your work is progressing,Enderera kuhenda maut'u gaga na dzambozeze kamare kwa ut'u wa gago ili kila mut'u aone viryahu uendererazho
Be careful in your life and in your teaching Continue to live and teach rightly Then you will save yourself and those who listen to your teaching,Dzimanyirire kahi za mitoereyo na pia ugamanyirire garyahu ufundishago Enderera na uvumirire kahi za gago ukihenda vizho undadzithizha we mwenye na undaathizha ao mahegao masikiro gao kukusirikiza uwe
Dont speak angrily to an older man But talk to him as if he were your father Treat the younger men like brothers,Usidumulire muthumia ela hat'uhe nena naye kwa up'ore dza here babayo wa kukuzhala Arya avulana o ahalire here nduguzo
Treat the older women like mothers And treat the younger women with respect like sisters,Anaache athumia ahalire here mamezo Anaache hirimu ahalire here nduguzo a kiche uhende vizho kahi za ueri wosi
Take care of widows who really need help,Dzulu za ache magungu namala niambe vivi aryahu mario ni magungu jeri be aishimu na ukale mut'u wa kuamanya
But if a widow has children or grandchildren the first thing they need to learn is this to show their devotion to God by taking care of their own family They will be repaying their parents and this pleases God,Ela chamba hana magungu angine mario mana ana hedu adzukulu h'aya be ao ana na adzukulu suthi kwandza kamare madzifundishe kuhenda viryahu virizho ni karakara kidini Ni maatsundzet'o adamu ao na makihenda vizho mandakala ni here mario manariha zho marizhohenderwa ao enye ni o azhazi ao na ts'awizao na h'awizao kwani vizho ndo vimufwahizazho Mulungu
A widow who really needs help is one who has been left all alone She trusts God to take care of her She prays all the time night and day and asks God for help,Ela gungu jeri ariye k'ana mut'u wa kumwaviza hatha iye nde iye bai iye ni kukala k'ana vingine isihokala th'amaaye ni Mulungu thu na nikuenderera kumuvoya iye usiku na mutsana amwavize
But the widow who uses her life to please herself is really dead while she is still living,Ela gungu ariye anathuwa th'amaaze za mwiri be wagonya kufwa idzaho at'u manamona amoyo
Tell the believers there to take care of their family so that no one can say they are doing wrong,H'aya bai ap'e malagizo gaga ili masikale at'u a kuhadzwa-hadzwa na mai
Everyone should take care of all their own people Most important they should take care of their own family If they do not do that then they do not accept what we believe They are worse than someone who does not even believe in God,Ela chamba mut'u k'aatsundza amanyie haswa aryahu mario ni adamue mwenye be mut'u iye ni kukala adzariricha ro kuluhiro naye hatha baha mut'u ariye k'amumanya Mulungu kamare
To be added to your list of widows a woman must be 60 years old or older She must have been faithful to her husband,Bai k'ahana cha mut'u kuambwa ni gungu hasihokala akale ni mut'u ariye ana zaidhi ya miaka mirongo mihandahu Mut'u dza vizho iye anadima kungizwa kahi za ro jao ra magungu H'aya zho mbai iye niakale were ana mulume mumwenga thu
She must be known for the good she has done raising children welcoming travelers into her home serving the needsof Gods people helping those in trouble and using her life to do all kinds of good,na akale anamanywa ni at'u kwa ut'u wa go mahendoge madzo-madzo Mwanamuche gungu niakale waarerat'o anae akale were ni mutseki ariyegesa nyayo za at'u aeri ariyeaviza at'u mariokala mana thabu na kidza akidzambozeza kamare kwa ut'u wa mahendo madzo-madzo kahi za kila ngira
But dont put younger widows on that list When their strong physical needs pull them away from their commitment to Christ they will want to marry again,Aryahu anaache magungu mario machere ahoho usiangize kahi za jao ra ache magungu bule Mana zo th'amaa za miri yao zikidhima kuryahu kumuhendza Masihi kwao h'aya be ni kuthimwa ni kuhendza kuhalwa beo
Then they will be guilty of not doing what they first promised to do,Mahendaho vizho ni kukala manadzipiga ulongo enye kwa kwenda kinyume cha yo ahadhi mariyoika
Also these younger widows begin to waste their time going from house to house They also begin to gossip and try to run other peoples lives They say things they should not say,H'aya zho mbai ao anaache ni kuthuwa kudzikeresira thu hasiho kazi ya kuhenda na ni kukala ni a du harya du harya mo nyumba-nyumba za at'u rimalwaro ee k'arimanyikana Bai si kwamba vizho be ndo ni vizho kare hatha anaache aa be ni kukala mathele nyambo na kuhendza kwangirira maut'u ga kwa ni at'u Nao be ni kunena maut'u garigo hatha k'agariwa ni mutsango kamare
So I want the younger widows to marry have children and take care of their homes If they do this our enemy will not have any reason to criticize them,Kwa vizho ningahendza at'u dza aa mapate alume mahalwe kaheri mazhale ahoho na matsundzet'o midzi yao kusudhi yuyahu hadhui asidze akapata kadzanya akanena mai dzulu zehu
But some of the younger widows have already turned away to follow Satan,Kwani hatha haha ninenaho ma kuko magungu angine mario mamuricha Mulungu na vivi manamuthuwa Shethani
If any woman who is a believer has widows in her family sheshould take care of them herself Then the church will not have that burden and will be able to care for the widows who have no one else to help them,Bai chamba mwanamuche Mumasihia ana amanyie mario ni magungu mut'u iye anavirya aavize ili wo muzigo uwo usirichirwe kanisa bule Akihenda vizho h'aya be ro kanisa rindathuwa wo wa kuaviza ao anaache mario ni magungu jeri na jeri
The elders who lead the church in a good way should receive double honorin particular those who do the work of counseling and teaching,H'aya na aryahu azee a kanisa mario manaendesha yo kazi ya mumo kanisani t'ot'ot'o manavirya mahokezwe mishahara ya k'ana mbiri Haswa aryahu mario kazi yao ni kuhubiri na kufundisha at'u kwa chadi
As the Scriptures say When a work animal is being used to separate grain dont keep it from eating the grainAnd the Scriptures also say A worker should be given his pay,Kwani Maoro ganaamba Kala ng'ombe inakut'a ngano usiifunge mulomo bule H'aya kidza Muhendzi wa kazi anavirya kupata marihoge
Dont listen to someone who accuses an elder You should listen to them only if there are two or three others who can say what the elder did wrong,Bai mut'u akidza kwako akidzamushithaki muzee wa kanisa uwe usikale muharaka wa kugagwira gago muhaka gakale gana ushahidhi wa at'u airi hedu ahahu vivi
Tell those who sin that they are wrong Do this in front of the whole church so that the others will have a warning,Aryahu mario manaenderera kuhenda dambi adumulire mbere za at'u osi ili aryahu angine magoshezhwe ni kuhenda dambi
Before God and Jesus Christ and the chosen angels I tell you to make these judgments without any prejudice Treat every person the same,Vikara ninakulagiza malagizo gaga kuno Mulungu na Masihi Jesu na o malaika aeri mario ni atsagulwa makikala here mashahidhi H'aya ni vivi hakikisha kukala unathuwa malagizo gaga hasiho upendheleo hedu kubagua mut'u
Think carefully before you lay your hands on anyone to make him an elder Dont share in the sins of others Keep yourself pure,Usikale muharaka wa kumuikira mikono mut'u na kidza usishiriki dambi za at'u angine Mut'u uwe dzimanyirire na udziike mueri
Timothy stop drinking only water and drink a little wine This will help your stomach and you will not be sick so often,H'aya kwa ut'u wa yo ndaniyo k'ongo na go manyonge gakupatago-patago kwenda usinwe madzi h'akeye ela nwa divai vichache
The sins of some people are easy to see Their sins show that they will be judged But the sins of some others are seen only later,Dambi za at'u angine zi lwazu-lwazu kamare na nikuathangulia o enye muhaka hukumuni Dambi za at'u angine zo zinamanyikana badaye
It is the same with the good things people do Some are easy to see But even if they are not obvious now none of them will stay hidden forever,Bai kahi za ngira iyo vizho mahendo madzo nago nikukala ganaoneka lwazu-lwazu na hatha kala k'agaoneka lwazu kidza mwisho suthi gaoneke vizho kwani k'agafitsika
All those who are slaves should show full respect to their masters Then Gods name and our teaching will not be criticized,Aryahu Amasihia osini mario ni atumwa manavirya kuap'a ishima aryahu mabwana ao ili hasombole at'u makanena mai dzulu za dzina ra Mulungu na dzulu za mafundishoge
Some slaves have masters who are believers so they are brothers Does this mean they should show their masters any less respect No they should serve them even better because they are helping believers people they should love,Na aryahu atumwa mario abomu ao manamukuluhira Mulungu dza ao masiazarau kwa zho zha kukala ni ndugu zao kahi za Bwana ela ni maahumikire t'ot'ot'o zaidhi kwani kazi iyo k'amaihendera mut'u mungine bule ela manaahendera at'u mario manamukuluhira Mulungu na kidza ni ahendzwi kahi za Bwana
Some people will teach what is false and will not agree with the true teaching of our Lord Jesus Christ They will not accept the teaching that produces a life of devotion to God,Mut'u akifundisha mafundisho mangine garigo k'agathuwana na maneno ga Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi na k'agalengana na mafundisho ga kimulungu
They are proud of what they know but they understand nothing They are sick with a love for arguing and fighting about words And that brings jealousy quarrels insults and evil mistrust,be mut'u iye andakala anadzionya bule thu na ko k'ana amanyaro Ahendzazho mut'u iye ni kupigana k'anani na andziye dzulu za maut'u fulani Vikara vivi vinahenda at'u maonerane wivu makosane madhyomane na makose kuaminiana
They are always making trouble because they are people whose thinking has been confused They have lost their understanding of the truth They think that devotion to God is a way to get rich,Na kila wakathi makale ni h'uwoh'uwo kwenda Bai o at'u mahendao gaga zo akili zao k'azihenda kazi bule na madzauya wo ujeri k'amaumanya kaheri Manaona kukala dini ni ngira ya kumuthajirisha mut'u
Devotion to God is in fact a way for people to be very rich but only if it makes them satisfied with what they have,Ela bai dini inadima kumuthajirisha mut'u jeri-jeri chamba ye mut'u andathosheka na cho aricho nacho
When we came into the world we brought nothing And when we die we can take nothing out,Kwani haha urumwenguni be fwakudza kihuhu naswi k'ahundatsukula kit'u chochosi wakathi wehu ukifika
So if we have food and clothes we will be satisfied with that,Kwa vizho bai chamba kurya funarya na kuvala funavala vizho vinathosha
People who want to be rich bring temptations to themselves They are caught in a trap They begin to want many foolish things that will hurt them These things ruin and destroy people,Ela mut'u amalaye kuthajirika mwishowe ni kuhenda kudziona adzangira kahi za majezo na kahi za muhego wa th'amaa nyinji za kizuzu zirizo zina hasara Th'amaa zizi ni kuhenda mut'u angire kahi za hathari na mwisho ahende kwangamika kamare
The love of money causes all kinds of evil Some people have turned away from what we believe because they want to get more and more money But they have caused themselves a lot of pain and sorrow,Kwani kuhendza p'esa ndo kurehako maut'u mai-mai ga kila namuna At'u angine makala malo kumala zo p'esa mwishowe makiricha kumukuluhira Mulungu na makidzangiza mashaka makomu ga kushononesa mioyo yao
But you belong to God So you should stay away from all those things Always try to do what is right to be devoted to God and to have faith love patience and gentleness,Ela uwe mut'u wa Mulungu bai gachimbire gago maut'u gago na uhende chadi kuthuwa maut'u ga hachi ga kimulungu ga kuluhiro mahendzo kuvumirira na up'ore
We have to fight to keep our faith Try as hard as you can to win that fight Take hold of eternal life It is the life you were chosen to have when you confessed your faith in Jesusthat wonderful truth that you spoke so openly and that so many people heard,Yo k'ondo ya kuluhiro be ipiget'o sana na wo uzima wa kare na kare nawo uugwire kuwunya Kwani uzima uu ndo uryahu uriwoihirwa wakathi urihoukubali na kanwako mbere za mashudhia anji enye
Before God and Christ Jesus I give you a command Jesus is the one who confessed that same wonderful truth when he stood before Pontius Pilate And God is the one who gives life to everything Now I tell you this,Bai ninakulagiza mbere za Mulungu ariye iye nde alazhaye uzima kwa kila kit'u Kidza nakulagiza mbere za Masihi Jesu ariye wakathi anamboza ushahidhi mbere za P'onitio P'ilato wanena wo ujeri uhuhu Bai nikulagizazho ni vivi
Do what you were commanded to do without fault or blame until the time when our Lord Jesus Christ comes again,Gwira ro lagizo riri hasiho kuhenda kaila hedu makosa gogosi henda vizho muhaka siku iryahu andiyouya Bwana Jesu Masihi

As a good soldier of Christ Jesus accept your share of the troubles we have,Mut'u uwe vumirira mashaka hamwenga naswi here shikari mudzo wa Masihi Jesu
A soldier wants to please his commanding officer so he does not spend any time on activities that are not a part of his duty,Shikari yoyosi k'adima kudzangiza-ngiza kahi za maut'u ga kiraiya bule Hatha ut'u adimao kuuhenda iye ni kuhakikisha kukala anamufwahiza ye mubomuwe
Athletes in a race must obey all the rules to win,H'aya zho mbai mut'u angiraye kahi za mashindano ga malo k'adima kuvikwa kiremba cha kunyesa adzashinda chamba zo sheria za malo k'azithuwire
The farmer who works hard deserves the first part of the harvest,H'aya fukihala mufano wa muk'urima ni yuyahu ariye ana bidhii na kurima nde ariye anavirya akale wa kwandza kupata zho zha kwandza
Think about what I am saying The Lord will help you understand it all,Bai gaga ninenago be gaaze sana mana ye Bwana andakwaviza ili kila kit'u kikale lwazu kwako
Remember Jesus Christ He is from the family of David After Jesus died he was raised from death This is the Good News that I tell people,Usimusahau Jesu Masihi bule Jesu wafufuka kula kifwani naye were ni mut'u wa lukolo lwa Daudi Bai uwo ndo Uvoro Udzo niwambirizao at'u
And because I tell that message I am suffering I am even bound with chains like someone who has really done wrong But Gods message is not bound,Na kwa ut'u wa wo Uvoro Udzo bai ndo ninapata thabu hatha dzafungwa minyororo here kwamba ni muhendi wa mai Ela bai ro neno ra Mulungu k'ahana adimaye kurifunga
So I patiently accept all these troubles I do this to help the people God has chosen so that they can have the salvation that is in Christ Jesus With this salvation comes glory that never ends,Kwa vizho mut'u mimi ninavumirira mashaka kwa ut'u wa ao mariotsagulwa ni Mulungu ili ao nao madime kuokolwa ni Masihi Jesu na mapate nguma ya kare na kare
Here is a true statement,Bai thiu musemo wa kukuluhirika
If we remain faithful even in suffering,Chamba fundaenderera kuvumirira hundathawala hamwenga naye
If we are not faithful,Chamba k'afuaaminifu
Keep on telling everyone these truths And warn them before God not to argue about words Such arguments dont help anyone and they ruin those who listen to them,Bai enderera kuakumbukiza o at'u kit'u kiki Akanye mbere za Mulungu mariche kunenezana dzulu za maneno fulani-fulani Mana k'anani dza zizo k'azina mana yoyosi hasihokala kuangamiza ao mazisirikizao
Do your best to be the kind of person God will accept and give yourself to him Be a worker who has no reason to be ashamed of his work one who applies the true teaching in the right way,Uwe henda wadimazho umwanyese Mulungu kukala unafwaha na u muhendzi wa kazi ase na haya na yo kaziye na kidza adimaye kurielezat'o ro neno ra ujeri
Stay away from people who talk about useless things that are not from God That kind of talk will lead a person more and more against God,Dziike kure na masumuriro ga kizuzu garigo k'agakimulungu mana at'u mario manadzangiza-ngiza kahi za maut'u gago nikukala manamushalahukira Mulungu p'ore-p'ore
Their evil teaching will spread like a sickness inside the body Hymenaeus and Philetus are men like that,Masumuriro gago ga kizuzu be ni kududuka vivii na kukala here kironda cha rika Mufano wa at'u mahendao maut'u dza gago ni Humenayo na Fileto
They have left the true teaching They say that the day when people will be raised from death has already come and gone And they are destroying the faith of some people,At'u alume aa airi mangamika ngira na wo ujeri makiulozera mongo Ndo bai manaambiriza andziyao kukala at'u magonya kufufulwa kare Nao kwa kuhenda vizho manaahenda angine mahende wasiwasi kahi za kumukuluhira Mulungu
But Gods strong foundation never moves and these words are written on it The Lord knows those who belong to himAlso these words are written there Everyone who says they believe in the Lord must stop doing wrong,Ela hamwenga na vizho wo musinji uriwoikwa ni Mulungu u nju-nju-nju nawo musinji uwo una muhuri uu Ye Bwana anamanya o mario ni akwe na mungine unaamba Kila mut'u arihadzaye dzina ra Bwana naariche uthiriri
In a large house there are things made of gold and silver But there are also things made of wood and clay Some of these are used for special purposes others for ordinary jobs,Kahi za nyumba yoyosi bomu muna viya zha kila samupuli Muna zha kutengezwa na fedha na zha dhahabu na hatha zha muhi na ulongo Viya vingine vihumirwa kwa haja bomu-bomu h'akeye na vingine zho vinahumirwa kilacha kwa shuhuli za vivi-vivi
The Lord wants to use you for special purposes so make yourself clean from all evil Then you will be holy and the Master can use you You will be ready for any good work,Bai chamba mut'u anahendza ahumirwe kwa shuhuli bomu be suthi adzitsuse kamare kula kwa zo shuhuli za vivi-vivi Akihenda vizho bai andakala yudzahendywa mueri na wa mana kwa iye Bwana na andakala a thayari kuhumirwa kwa kazi yoyosi mbidzo
Stay away from the evil things a young person like you typically wants to do Do your best to live right and to have faith love and peace together with others who trust in the Lord with pure hearts,Kwa vizho zo th'amaa zosi za kivulana be zichimbire na hat'uhe ukale mut'u wa kuthuwa maut'u ga hachi ukale na kuluhiro uhende chadi kuahendza andziyo na uenderere kukala mut'u wa dheri henda vizho hamwenga na osini marihadzao dzina ra Bwana na mioyo mitsuki
Stay away from foolish and stupid arguments You know that these arguments grow into bigger arguments,Usithathe kudzangiza-ngiza kahi za k'anani za kizuzu na za kipambavu mana uwe unamanya kukala mwishowe ni h'uwoh'uwo kunenezana
As a servant of the Lord you must not argue You must be kind to everyone You must be a good teacher and you must be patient,Muhumiki wa Bwana k'avirya akale ni wa h'uwoh'uwo kunenezana na at'u hat'uhe iye niakale ni mut'u mup'ore kwa at'u osi akale anadima kufundishat'o bila vitsukizi
You must gently teach those who dont agree with you Maybe God will let them change their hearts so that they can accept the truth,Aryahu at'u ambao ma kinyume naye anavirya aakanye kwa up'ore ngaa Mulungu aagaluze mioyo yao na madime kuumanya ujeri
The devil has trapped them and now makes them do what he wants But maybe they can wake up to see what is happening and free themselves from the devils trap,Kidza maleukwe na mauchimbire wo muhego wa Shethani ariye were waagwira na akialazimisha mathuwe zho zhakwe
Remember this There are some terrible times coming in the last days,Bai manya vivi mut'u uwe kukala siku za mwisho maut'u gandakala makomu sana
People will love only themselves and money They will be proud and boast about themselves They will abuse others with insults They will not obey their parents They will be ungrateful and against all that is pleasing to God,At'u mandadzihendza o enye kare mandahendza p'esa kukira kiasi mandadzidai na kudzikut'ula Ao vizho mandahukana-hukana at'u k'amandaasikira azhazi ao bule hatha muvera wenye nawo mandakala k'amana mandakosa kukala aeri
They will have no love for others and will refuse to forgive anyone They will talk about others to hurt them and will have no selfcontrol They will be cruel and hate what is good,H'aya zho go ao vizho k'amandahendza mut'u kusamehe kwenye k'amandasamehe mandadzala nyambo mandakala avara na masiogut'ika kitsutsu kidza mario vizho vii be ndo viafwahizazho
People will turn against their friends They will do foolish things without thinking and will be so proud of themselves Instead of loving God they will love pleasure,H'aya ao vizho mandaasaliti andziyao k'amandambirika na mandadzionya k'amuna Ao mandamwika k'anda Mulungu na mathuwe maut'u ga kuafwahiza
They will go on pretending to be devoted to God but they will refuse to let that devotion change the way they live Stay away from these people,Kidza mandaonekana kukala mana Mulungu sana ela ko sozho zo nguvu za dini manazikana Vikara uwe dziike kure na at'u dza vizho ao
Some of them go into homes and get control over weak women whose lives are full of sinwomen who are led into sin by all the things they want,Kwani kahi za aa ma kuko mario kazi yao ni kunyerereka midzi-midzi na kuateka anaache masio na nguvu kidza madzioremerwa ni dambi na mathawalwao ni kila samupuli ya th'amaa mbii
These women always want to learn something new but they are never able to fully understand the truth,Anaache ao manadzifundisha kwenda-kwenda ela bai k'amadima kufikira kiwango cha kuumanya ujeri
Just as Jannes and Jambresfought against Moses these people fight against the truth Their thinking has been confused The faith they have and teach is worthless,Jane na Jambure majeza kushindana na Musa na aa nao manahenda ut'u dza uwo manapingana na ujeri zo akili za at'u aa be zagonya kwanongeka na ro kuluhiro rao si ra jeri
But they will not succeed in what they are trying to do Everyone will see how foolish they are That is what happened to Jannes and Jambres,Ela kwani wamba vindafururiza K'avindafururiza bule mana vindafikira siku kila mut'u andawona lwazu wo uzuzu wao mana vizho ndizho virizhoakalira ani Jane na Jambure
But you know all about me You know what I teach and the way I live You know my goal in life You know my faith my patience and my love You know that I never stop trying,Ela uwe wagagwira go mafundisho gangu na unamanya yo mitoere yangu na unamanya kwanoni ni moyo kidza unamanya kuluhiro rangu ririzho unamanya kuvumirira kwangu unamanya mahendzo gangu na kidza unamanya viryahu nirizho na nyimiri
You know about my persecutions and my sufferings You know all the things that happened to me in Antioch Iconium and Lystrathe persecution I suffered in those places But the Lord saved me from all of it,H'aya zho mbai uwe unamanya viryahu nirizhoteswa na thabu zangu unazimanya Garyahu gosini garigonikala ko Anitiokia Ikonio na Lusitera unagamanya Wee mut'u mimi navumirira mateso sana Ela hamwenga na vizho Bwana wanithizha na gago gosi
Everyone who wants to live showing true devotion to God in Christ Jesus will be persecuted,Kwandza kila ahendzaye kuishi maisha ga kimulungu kwa kumuthuwa Masihi Jesu andateswa thu
People who are evil and cheat others will become worse and worse They will fool others but they will also be fooling themselves,H'aya athiriri na alongo mandakaza kukala ai mandakenga at'u na ao nao makengwe ni angine
But you should continue following the teaching you learned You know it is true because you know you can trust those who taught you,Ela uwe bai sikengwe bule enderera kuthuwa garyahu urigofundishwa na kugakuluhira kwani o mariokufundisha unaamanya
You have known the Holy Scripturessince you were a child These Scriptures are able to make you wise And that wisdom leads to salvation through faith in Christ Jesus,Kidza unamanya kukala go Maoro maeri gadimago kukulachiza hatha ukapata wokolwi kukirira na kuluhiro kahi za Masihi Jesu be uwe wagamanya hangu uchere muthithe
All Scripture is given by God And all Scripture is useful for teaching and for showing people what is wrong in their lives It is useful for correcting faults and teaching the right way to live,Bai Maoro gosini gaorwa kwa nguvu za Mulungu nago bai ganafwaha kwa kuafundishira at'u kuchemera at'u madziokosa kurekebishira ut'u uriwo k'ombo na kidza ni madzo kwa kualongoza at'u kuishi maisha gaviryago
Using the Scriptures those who serve God will be prepared and will have everything they need to do every good work,Kusudhi ye mut'u wa Mulungu akale thayari na kila kit'u cha kuhendera kazi zosi mbidzo
Before God and Jesus Christ I give you a command Christ Jesus is the one who will judge all peoplethose who are living and those who have died He is coming again to rule in his kingdom So I give you this command,Bai T'imoth'i nakuamuru mbere za Mulungu na mbere za Masihi Jesu ariye iye nde andiyeahukumu at'u mario moyo na mariofwa wakathi andihokudzathawala

The time will come when people will not listen to the true teaching But people will find more and more teachers who please them They will find teachers who say what they want to hear,Mana kundakudza makathi ambago at'u mandakala k'amendzi kaheri kusikira mafundisho ga jeri mandichohenda ni kuthuwa th'amaa zao na kudzikundzumanyira alimu mandioafundisha vizho marizho manamala kusikira
People will stop listening to the truth They will begin to follow the teaching in false stories,Mandakahala kusirikiza wo ujeri na hat'uhe mathuwe kusirikiza maut'u ga ngano-ngano
But you should control yourself at all times When troubles come accept them Do the work of telling the Good News Do all the duties of a servant of God,Ela uwe bai kala matso kahi za maut'u gosi vumirira mashaka na uhende kazi ya kuambiriza at'u Uvoro Udzo Bai henda yo kaziyo t'ot'ot'o here muhumiki wa Mulungu

An elder must be faithful to the same true message we teach Then he will be able to encourage others with teaching that is true and right And he will be able to show those who are against this teaching that they are wrong,H'aya zho mbai suthi akale ni mut'u ariye go mafundisho ga jeri arigogapata wagagwira ngwa Vivi vindamuhendya adime kuap'a moyo at'u angine na gago mafundisho ga jeri na pia aanyese aryahu magapingao haryahu makoseraho
This is important because there are many people who refuse to obeypeople who talk about worthless things and mislead others I am talking especially about those who say that men who are not Jews must be circumcised to please God,Kwani kuko kuna at'u anji masiosikira manakenga at'u na kunena maneno ga kizuzu Haswa mahendao kit'u kicho ni aryahu at'u maambao kukala kila mut'u ariye si Muyahudi na wamukuluhira Jesu suthi angizwe lwembeni
These people must be stopped because they are destroying whole families by teaching what they should not teach They teach only to cheat people and make money,At'u aa ni manyamazwe kamare kwa kukala madzayononga midzi ya at'u kwa kufundisha maut'u gasigovirya Nao manahenda vivi kwa lengo ra kupata p'esa
Even one of their own prophets said Cretans are always liars They are evil animals and lazy people who do nothing but eat,Mumwenga wao nabii wao mwenye kula kuko K'irete waamba kukala Ak'irete ni alongo siku zosi ma here nyama a tsakani ni akaha na madziotona
The words that prophet said are true So tell those people that they are wrong You must be strict with them Then they will become strong in the faith,Na vizho arizhonena be ni jeri kamare Kwa ut'u uu adumulire ili kuluhiro rao rikale imara na
and they will stop paying attention to the stories told by those Jews They will stop following the commands of those who have turned away from the truth,masisirikize ngano za Kiyahudi hedu kugwira malagizo ga at'u mario k'amendzi ujeri
To people who are pure everything is pure But to those who are full of sin and dont believe nothing is pure Really their thinking has become evil and their consciences have been ruined,K'akuna kit'u kikolo kwa at'u mario ni aeri mioyoni mwao Kidza k'akuna kit'u kieri kwa at'u mario ni akolo na masiokuluhira kwa kukala maazo gao na mioyo yao vidzahakwa nyenye
They say they know God but the evil things they do show that they dont accept him They are disgusting They refuse to obey God and are not capable of doing anything good,At'u aa manaamba kukala manamumanya Mulungu ela zho vihendo zhao vinanyesa kukala k'amamwendzi bule Madzaola na k'amasikira kidza k'amafwaha kwa ut'u wowosi udzo
You however must tell everyone how to live in a way that agrees with the true teaching,Ela uwe bai fundisha garyahu maut'u garigo o at'u manamalikana magahende ili madime kuthuwa mafundisho ga jeri
Teach the older men to have selfcontrol to be serious and to be wise They must be strong in faith in love and in patience,Ambire o athumia makale at'u a kudziunya na alachu Masikale at'u a madhe-madhe bule nimakale na nguvu kahi za kuluhiro kahi za mahendzo na kahi za kuvumirira
Also teach the older women to live the way those who serve the Lord should live They should not go around saying bad things about others or be in the habit of drinking too much They should teach what is good,O anaache athumia nao ambirize makale na mwendo mueri Masikale at'u a nyambo hedu anwadzi a divai kukira muhaka ela nimakale at'u a kufundisha madzo-madzo
By doing this they will teach the younger women to love their husbands and children,ili madime kuafundisha anaache hirimu maahendze alume ao na ana ao
They will teach them to be wise and pure to take care of their homes to be kind and to be willing to serve their husbands Then no one will be able to criticize the teaching God gave us,madzizulie na mai makale aeri na matsundze midzi yao t'ot'ot'o Kidza mandaafundisha makale at'u enye mioyo midzo na maasikirao alume ao ili neno ra Mulungu risihukanwe bule
In the same way tell the young men to be wise,Kahi za ngira iyo vizho ambire o anaalume mario machere avulana-avulana madime kudzizulia na mai
You should be an example for them in every way by the good things you do When you teach be honest and serious,Uwe mwenye nawe kala mufano kwao kwa kuhenda madzo kahi za maut'u gosi Riro undironena henda riro na usikale na madhe-madhe wakathi unafundisha
And your teaching should be clearly right so that you cannot be criticized Then anyone who is against you will be ashamed There will not be anything bad they can say about us,Fundisha gago mafundisho ga jeri ili ao mahadhuio magwirwe ni haya kwa kukosa rorosi ra kunena dzulu zehu
And tell this to those who are slaves They should be willing to serve their masters at all times they should try to please them not argue with them,Ambire atumwa maagohe mabwana ao na maafwahize kahi za maut'u gosi masijibizane nao
they should not steal from them and they should show their masters that they can be trusted Then in everything they do they will show that the teaching of God our Savior is good,Masiaiyire mabwana ao bule ela hat'u ha vizho ni madzionyese kukala ni at'u adzo na mario manakuluhirika kahi za ngira zosi Vivi vindaahendya manyese kukala gago mafundisho dzulu za Mulungu mwokoli wehu ganafwahiza
That is the way we should live because Gods grace has come That grace can save everyone,Kwani Mulungu wanyesa nemaye lwazu kwa ut'u wa kuakola at'u osini
It teaches us not to live against God and not to do the bad things the world wants to do It teaches us to live on earth now in a wise and right waya way that shows true devotion to God,Na nema iyo inafufundisha furiche kuishi maisha garigo si ga kimulungu Kidza inafuhendya furiche garyahu futs'ots'erwago ni urumwengu fuhende na hat'u ha vizho fuishi maisha ga kudzizulia na mai na garigo karakara Kidza fuishi maisha ga kimulungu kahi za urumwengu uu wa vikara
We should live like that while we are waiting for the coming of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ He is our great hope and he will come with glory,kuno funaithariza na hakika iryahu siku bomu ya raha Siku iyo nguma ya Mulungu wehu mubomu mwokoli wehu Masihi Jesuindaoneka
He gave himself for us He died to free us from all evil He died to make us purepeople who belong only to him and who always want to do good,Iye Masihi wadzilazha mwenye kwa ut'u wehu siswi ili ahuthizhe na uwi na ahuhendye at'u aeri na a kwakwe mwenye at'u enye t'it'i ya kuhenda madzo
These are the things you should tell people Encourage them and when they are wrong correct them You have full authority to do this so dont let anyone think they can ignore you,Gafundishe maut'u gaga na uhumire wadimi wa kwako wosi wakathi ukalaho unaap'a moyo na kuachemera Usiriche mut'u akakuvudhya bule
Remind your people that they should always be under the authority of rulers and government leaders They should obey these leaders and be ready to do good,Akumbukize at'uo madzitsereze kwa athawali osi Nimaasikize na kidza makale thayari kuhenda kila ririro ridzo
Tell them not to speak evil of anyone but to live in peace with others They should be gentle and polite to everyone,Ambirize kwamba masimunene vii mut'u yoyosi na masinenezane ela hat'u ha vizho nimakale ap'ore kwa at'u osi na mamuheshimu kila mut'u
In the past we were foolish too We did not obey we were wrong and we were slaves to the many things our bodies wanted and enjoyed We lived doing evil and being jealous People hated us and we hated each other,Kwani siswi naswi were fu azuzu na k'ahusikira Were fwangamizwa vuva na kidza were fu atumwa a maut'u mai-mai gahendzwago ni mwiri na th'amaa mbii-mbii Fahumira maisha gehu kuaazira at'u mai na kuaonera kidzitso kidza at'u makihumena naswi hukiamena
But then the kindness and love of God our Savior was made known,Ela mbazi na mahendzo ga Mulungu mwokoli wehu virihonyeswa lwazu kwa anadamu
He saved us because of his mercy not because of any good things we did He saved us through the washing that made us new people He saved us by making us new through the Holy Spirit,akifwakola Si kwa ut'u wa mahendo madzo hurigogahenda ela ni kwa mbazize Akifwakola kwa kuhugesa ambako kukirira na kuko Roho Mweri anahup'a kuzhalwa lusha na mitoere misha
God poured out to us that Holy Spirit fully through Jesus Christ our Savior,Mulungu wafuhumira Roho Mweri kukirira kwa Jesu Masihi mwokoli wehu bila kipimo
We were made right with God by his grace God saved us so that we could be his children and look forward to receiving life that never ends,ili siswi huriohendywa ahachi kwa iyo nema ya kwakwe fuhendywe fuupate uryahu uzima wa kare na kare furio na th'amaa nao
This is a true statement,Bai gaga nidzigokwambira be ganakuluhirika Nikahendza uone kukala at'u manang'alirwa ni mafundisho gaga ili aryahu mamukuluhirao Mulungu mahakikishe kukala manahenda mahendo madzo Maut'u gaga ni madzo na gandamufwaidhisha kila mut'u
Stay away from those who have foolish arguments who talk about useless family histories or who make trouble and fight about what the Law of Moses teaches These things are useless and will not help anyone,Ela dziike kure na k'anani zisizo mana na minyilili mire ya akare Usinenezane na at'u kamare hedu kukosana dzulu za yo Sheria ya Kiyahudi Maut'u gaga k'agana mana na k'agana faidha yoyosi
Give a warning to all those who cause arguments If they continue to cause trouble after a second warning then dont associate with them,Mut'u ariye anaagazha-gazha andziye mukanye lwa kwandza akikala k'arichire mukanye lwa hiri na akikala k'asikira muriche
You know that people like that are evil and sinful Their sins prove they are wrong,Kwani mut'u dza yuyu unamanya kukala ana dambi na adzanongeka kidza anadzipiga ulongo mwenye
I will send Artemas and Tychicus to you When I send them try hard to come to me at Nicopolis I have decided to stay there this winter,Nindihomuhuma Aritema kwako hedu Tukiko henda chadi unidzirire ko Nikopoli kwani kuko ndiko nidzikopanga kukizira yo p'eho ya mwaka

Our people must learn to use their lives for doing good and helping anyone who has a need Then they will not have empty lives,At'u ehu masiishi maisha garigo k'agana faidha ela hat'u ha vizho ni madzambozeze kamare kahi za kuhenda madzo Ni maasaidhie aryahu mario mana mahitaji ga mana
All the people with me here send you their greetings Give my greetings to those who love us in the faith,At'u osi mario hamwenga nami haha madzakulamusa H'aya naswi hulamusire aryahu mario manahuhendza na manamukuluhira Masihi dza siswi Bai nema naikale hamwenga nanwi nyosini

My brother you have shown love to Gods people and your help has greatly encouraged them What a great joy and encouragement that has been to me,Ndugu yangu nina raha nyinji na ninasikira kwangizwa nguvu kwa ut'u wa go mahendzogo kwani udzaangiza nguvu za kiroho at'u a Mulungu
There is something that you should do And because of the authority I have in Christ I feel free to command you to do it,Kwa vizho vingahokala kahi za Masihi nina nguvu za kukuamurisha kukala uhende here viviryazho
But I am not commanding you I am asking you to do it out of love I Paul am an old man now and I am a prisoner for Christ Jesus,ela kwa kukala funahendzana naona baha nihende kukuvoya Mimi P'aulo niriye ni muthumia na mimi vizho ni mufungwa kahi za Masihi Jesu ninakuvoya
I am asking you for my son Onesimus He became my son while I was in prison,Ninakuvoya kwa ut'u wa Onesimo ariye vivi ni mwanangu kahi za Masihi mana wamukuluhira Jesu wakathi nirihomuhubiri haha kifungoni
In the past he was useless to you But now he has become usefulfor both you and me,Haho nyuma Onesimowere k'ana mana yoyosi kwako uwe ela vivi be ana mana sana kwangu mimi na kwako uwe
I am sending him back to you but its as hard as losing part of myself,Bai namudzya kwako kaheri kwa vizho muhokere kwani iye be a moyoni mwangu
I would like to keep him here to help me while I am still in prison for telling the Good News By helping me here he would be representing you,Were nahendza nithuwe kukala naye kuku kwangu ili ahale hat'uho anihumikire mimi kahi za kufungwa kwangu kwa ut'u wa Uvoro Udzo wa Mulungu
But I did not want to do anything without asking you first Then whatever you do for me will be what you want to do not what I forced you to do,Ela sihendzeze kutengeza ut'u bila ruhusayo ili wo udzowo usikale ni udzo wa kuhenda kulazimishwa ela ukale ni wa kuhendza mwenye
Onesimus was separated from you for a short time Maybe that happened so that you could have him back forever,Na hangine sababu iriyomwamboza ko kwako kwa muda were ni kwamba ukadime kumuhokera kaheri na akale nawe kare na kare
not to be just a slave but better than a slave to be a dear brother Thats what he is to me And I know he will mean even more to you both as your slave and as one who shares your faith in the Lord,Charo kiki iye si mutumwa thu ela a zaidhi ya mutumwa Iye ni ndugu muhendzwi haswa kwangu mimi na hatha zaidhi sana kwako uwe here mutumwao na nduguyo kahi za Bwana
If you accept me as your friend then accept Onesimus back Welcome him like you would welcome me,Kwa vizho kala unanithala here mwandziyo furiye ngara kahi za kuluhiro be muhokere ye Onesimo here ungazhonihokera mimi
If he has done any wrong to you or owes you anything charge that to me,Na kala ana ut'u wowosi ariwokukosera hedu kala unamwisa ut'u wowosi vizho zhosi navikale dzulu yangu mimi
I Paul am writing this in my own handwriting I will pay back anything Onesimus owes And I will say nothing about what you owe me for your own life,Mimi P'aulo nandhika vivi na mukono wangu wenye nindariha ela kumbukira kukala ninakwisa hatha yo rohoyo
So my brother as a follower of the Lord please do this favorfor me It would be such a great encouragement to me as your brother in Christ,H'aya bai ndugu yangu ningahendza umuhokere kahi za Bwana nawe undakala udzanihendera ut'u udzo wa kuniburudisha moyo wangu kahi za Masihi

Also please prepare a room for me I hope that God will answer your prayers and that I will be able to come and see you,Hamwenga na vizho nithayarishira hat'u ha kulala kwani ninakuluhira kukala kukirira na mavoyo genu nindambozwa haha jela na nikuzhoge kuko kwenu
Epaphras is a prisoner with me for Christ Jesus He sends you his greetings,Udzalamuswa ni Epafura ariye ni mufungwa mwandzangu kahi za Masihi Jesu
Also Mark Aristarchus Demas and Luke send their greetings They are workers together with me,Kidza udzalamuswa ni Mariko na Arisitariko na Dema na Luka mario ni ahendzi a kazi andzangu
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit,Bai nema ya Bwana Jesu Masihi naikale kahi za maroho genu
In the past God spoke to our people through the prophets He spoke to them many times and in many different ways,Haho kapindi Mulungu wanena na akare ehu kukirira kwa manabii Wanena nao mara nyinji na kwa ngira tofauti-tofauti
And now in these last days God has spoken to us again through his Son He made the whole world through his Son And he has chosen his Son to have all things,Ela kahi za siku zizi za mwisho Mulungu wanena naswi kukirira kwa Mwanawe mwenye Mulungu waumba urumwengu wosi kukirira kwa Mwana yuyu kidza akimutsagula kwamba vit'u zhosi vikale vindakala zhakwe
The Son shows the glory of God He is a perfect copy of Gods nature and he holds everything together by his powerful command The Son made people clean from their sins Then he sat down at the right sideof God the Great One in heaven,Mwana iye anafwanyesa yo nguma ya Mulungu yenye Ukimona iye udzamona Mulungu Urumwengu wosi unaenderera kwa amuri ya kwakwe iriyo na nguvu Arihokala adzagonya kufwa na kuatsusa at'u dambi zao wakwenda mulunguni achendakelesi mukono wa kurya wa Mulungu ariye iye ndiye mwenye nguvu dzulu ya zhosi
The Son became much greater than the angels and God gave him a name that is much greater than any of their names,Bai iye Mwana akikala mubomu kukira malaika dza zho ro dzina arirogerwa ririzho bomu kukira ro ra malaika
God never said this to any of the angels,Kwani k'akuna malaika hatha mumwenga ariyeambwa ni Mulungu kukala
And then when God presents his firstborn Son to the worldhe says,Na kidza Mulungu amurehaho Mwanawe wa kwandza urumwenguni anaamba
This is what God said about the angels,Na dzulu za malaika akiamba
But this is what he said about his Son,Ela dzulu za Mwanawe Mulungu waamba
You love what is right and hate what is wrong,Uwe unahendza hachi udzamena uthiriri
God also said,Kidza akiamba
These things will disappear but you will stay,Vivi zhosi vindangamika ela uwe undasala
You will fold them up like a coat,Nawe undavikundza here amba
And God never said this to an angel,Mulungu k'adzanena na malaikawe yoyosi akamwamba kukala
All the angels are spirits who serve God and are sent to help those who will receive salvation,Bai malaika ni ahumiki a Mulungu Ao ni maroho gahumwago ni Mulungu gakaavize at'u mahokerao wokolwi
So we must be more careful to follow what we were taught We must be careful so that we will not be pulled away from the true way,Kwa ut'u uwo bai uwo ujeri furiwousikira nafukaze kuugwira ngwa kamare p'ore fukauricha fukathuwa maut'u mangine
The teaching that God spoke through angels was shown to be true And every time his people did something against that teaching they were punished for what they did They were punished when they did not obey that teaching,Wo uvoro uriworefwa ni malaika wakala ni wa jeri hatha kila mut'u ariye k'augwirire hedu kuuthuwa wangizwa akili kihachi kulengana na makosage mwenye
So surely we also will be punished if we dont pay attention to the salvation we have that is so great It was the Lord Jesus who first told people about it And those who heard him proved to us that it is true,Vidze vindakaladze kala k'ahundaujali wokolwi uno ubomu vino Ni lwazu kukala kala k'afundaujali k'afundathia bule Ho kwandza wokolwi uu watangazwa ni Bwana mwenye gonya aryahu mariousikira makidzafuhakikishira kukala ni wa jeri
God also proved it by using miraculous signs wonders and all kinds of miracles And he proved it by giving people various gifts through the Holy Spirit in just the way he wanted,Na wakathi uwo vizho Mulungu akimboza ushahidhiwe Iye wahenda miujiza minji tofauti-tofauti na akilazha vigerwa zha Roho Mweri here arizhohendza iye mwenye
God did not choose angels to be the rulers over the new world that was coming That future world is the world we have been talking about,Kwani hatha uwo urumwengu fuunenawo haha uwo urumwengu udzawo Mulungu k'apangire kukala malaika ndio mandiothawala
It is written some place in the Scriptures,Na Maoro ganamboza ushahidhi dzulu ya vivi Kwani hana hat'u haambaho kukala
For a short time you made him lower than the angels,Uwe wamuhendya akale muthithe kukira malaika kwa muda
You put everything under his control,ukiika kila kit'u kikale ts'inize
For a short time Jesus was made lower than the angels but now we see him wearing a crown of glory and honor because he suffered and died Because of Gods grace Jesus died for everyone,Ela fukimulola Jesu funaona kukala wahendywa akale muthithe kukira malaika kwa muda Kwa udzo ariwo nawo Mulungu Jesu akiafwerera at'u osi Na kwa ut'u wa go mateso arigogapata kahi za kifwa Mulungu akimup'a nguma na ishima bomu
Godthe one who made all things and for whose glory all things existwanted many people to be his children and share his glory So he did what he needed to do He made perfect the one who leads those people to salvation He made Jesus a perfect Savior through his suffering,Kwani Mulungu ariyeumba vit'u zhosi kwa ut'u we iye wahenda karakara kamare kumwangiza Jesu kahi za mateso ili akadime kuareha ana anji kahi za ngumaye Kukirira na mateso gaga Mulungu wamuhendya Jesu akale kamili na athoshe kualongoza at'u aangize kahi za wokolwi
Jesus the one who makes people holy and those who are made holy are from the same family So he is not ashamed to call them his brothers and sisters,Mana iye Jesu aahendaye at'u makale aeri na ao at'u mahendywao aeri osi babiyao ni mumwenga Ndosa Jesu k'ana haya kuaiha nduguze
He says,Kwani wanena akiamba
He also says,Iye kaheri anaamba kukala
These children are people with physical bodies So Jesus himself became like them and had the same experiences they have Jesus did this so that by dying he could destroy the one who has the power of deaththe devil,Na kwa kukala o ana a Mulungu ni anadamu a kawaida enye miri na milatso Jesu naye wakudzazhalwa na mwiri na milatso here mudamu wa kawaida Na kukirira na cho kifwa cha kwakwe Jesu were andadima kumwanonga-nonga Shethani ariye were ndiye mwenye nguvu dzulu za kifwa
Jesus became like these people and died so that he could free them They were like slaves all their lives because of their fear of death,na aarichire huru at'u osi mariokala ni atumwa kahi za maisha gao gosi kwa ut'u wa kugoha kifwa
Clearly it is not angels that Jesus helps He helps the people who are from Abraham,Kwani vi lwazu kamare kukala iye wakudzaaviza at'u a lukolo lwa Burahemu k'adzire aviza malaika
For this reason Jesus had to be made like us his brothers and sisters in every way He became like people so that he could be their merciful and faithful high priest in service to God Then he could bring forgiveness for the peoples sins,Kwa vizho were ni karakara kamare Jesu akale here nduguze kahi za kila ngira Naye wakala vivi ili kwamba adime kukala mulombi mubomu mwenye mwaminifu na wa mbazi kahi za kumwambozera Mulungu sadaka ya kuausiza dambi at'u osi
And now he can help those who are tempted He is able to help because he himself suffered and was tempted,Na kwa kukala Jesu wateswa na akijezwa iye ana wadimi wa kuaviza at'u majezwao
So my brothers and sisters those chosen by God to be his holy people think about Jesus He is the one we believe God sent to save us and to be our high priest,Kwa vizho bai ndugu zangu aeri murioifwa ni Mulungu dza mimi mulolenit'o ye Jesu ariye ni Muhumwi na Mulombi mubomu kahi za ro kuluhiro furirorikubali
God made him our high priest and he was faithful to God just as Moses was He did everything God wanted him to do in Gods house,Iye wakala mwaminifu kwa Mulungu ariyemutsagula here dza zho Musa arizhohumika kwa waminifu kahi za nyumba yosi ya Mulungu
When someone builds a house people will honor the builder more than the house It is the same with Jesus He should have more honor than Moses,Ela here dza viryahu muaki wa nyumba agerwazho ishima kukira yo nyumba ariyoiaka Jesu naye waonewa kukala anavirya kugerwa nguma zaidhi kumukira Musa
Every house is built by someone but God built everything,Kwani kila nyumba ina muakiwe ela Mulungu ndiye muaki wa vit'u zhosi
Moses was faithful as a servant in Gods whole house He told people what God would say in the future,Vikara ingahokala Musa were ni mwaminifu kahi za nyumba yosi ya Mulungu ela were ni muhumiki thu Iye were anamboza ushahidhi wa maut'u garigo were Mulungu andaganena mbereni
But Christ is faithful in ruling Gods house as the Son And we are Gods house if we remain confident of the great hope we are glad to say we have,Ela Masihi ye wakala mwaminifu here mwana aimiriraye mudzi wa babaye Na siswi fu nyumba ya Mulungu kala yo th'amaa huriyo nayo kahi za Masihi hundaigwira kuyunya kwa uhakika na kuinyeth'era
So it is just as the Holy Spirit says,Bai kwa ut'u uwo wenye ye Roho Mweri anaamba kukala
dont be stubborn as you were in the past,sihendeni singo nyomu
For 40 years in the desert your people saw what I did,Ao magaona gago gangu nirigoahendera
So I was angry with them,Kwa ut'u uwo wenye bai natsukirwa zhomu nikiamba
So I was angry and made a promise,Nalaha kwa k'oro za kwangu kukala
So brothers and sisters be careful that none of you has the evil thoughts that cause so much doubt that you stop following the living God,Ndugu zangu kila mumwenga wenu naadzimanyirire p'ore akangirwa ni moyo mui na kutsakuluhira hatha akamuricha Mulungu ariye moyo
But encourage each other every day while you still have something called today Help each other so that none of you will be fooled by sin and become too hard to change,Kanyanani enye kwa enye p'ore mut'u akakengwa ni dambi akahenda singo nyomu hatha akakahala kumusikira Mulungu Kwani iyo Rero iriyonenwa ni Roho kufuonya be vivi idzahulenga siswi
We have the honor of sharing in all that Christ has if we continue until the end to have the sure faith we had in the beginning,Na kala ro kuluhiro rehu furirokala naro hangu ho chaho fundarigwira hatha mwisho be funa muthalo hamwenga na Masihi
Thats why the Spirit said,Kwani Maoro ganaamba kukala
Who were those who heard Gods voice and turned against him It was all the people Moses led out of Egypt,Kwani ni ano h'ani mariosikira mumiro wa Mulungu na makimupinga Ni ao at'u osi mariolongozwa ni Musa kumbola ts'i ya Misiri
And who was God angry with for 40 years He was angry with those who sinned And their dead bodies were left in the desert,Na ni ano h'ani mariomutsukiza Mulungu kwa miaka mirongo mine Ni ao mariohenda dambi na makifwa kuko nyika
And which people was God talking to when he promised that they would never enter his place of rest He was talking to those who did not obey him,Na hatha haryahu Mulungu ariholaha akiamba kukala K'amandangira haryahu hat'u hangu ha kuoya were anaaamba aryahu mariokosa kumusikira
So we see that they were not allowed to enter and have Gods rest because they did not believe,Kwa vizho funaona kukala at'u aryahu k'amadimire kwangira kwa ut'u wa kutsakuluhira kwao
And we still have the promise that God gave those people That promise is that we can enter his place of rest So we should be very careful that none of you fails to get that promise,Bai cho kilagane arichoika Mulungu dzulu za at'u kwangira haryahu hat'uhe ha kuoya kichereko hatha vivi Kwa vizho nafudzimanyirire p'ore angine enu mukakosa kwangira kuko
Yes the good news about it was told to us just as it was to them But the message they heard did not help them They heard it but did not accept it with faith,Kwani uwo uvoro udzo wa hat'u ha kuoya wambirizwa kwa o akare ehu dza zho Uvoro Udzo urizhohubiriwa kwehu siswi Ela uvoro uwo k'auafwahire kit'u mana mawambirwa ela k'amaukuluhirire
Only we who believe it are able to enter Gods place of rest As God said,Ela siswi fukuluhirao nikwangira kahi za haryahu hat'u ha kuoya Ela ao mario k'amakuluhirire Mulungu mwenye wanena akiamba
Yes somewhere in the Scriptures he talked about the seventh day of the week He said So on the seventh day God rested from all his work,Kwani Maoro gananena dzulu ya yo siku ya fungahe Ganaamba Mulungu wahenda kazize akizimarigiza na siku ya fungahe akioya
But in the Scripture above God said They will never enter my place of rest,Kidza Maoro gananena kaheri hat'u hangine na kuamba K'amandangira bule haryahu hat'u hangu ha kuoya
So the opportunity is still there for some to enter and enjoy Gods rest But those who first heard the good news about it did not enter because they did not obey,Aryahu at'u a kwandza kuhubiriwa Uvoro Udzo wa kwangira haryahu hat'u ha kuoya k'amadimire kwangira kwa kukala k'amamusikirire Mulungu Ela vikara kwa kukala cho kilagane cha Mulungu kichere lwazu
So God planned another special day It is called today He spoke about that day through David a long time later using the words we quoted before,iye waika siku nyingine kwa at'u mangire iriyo ni Rero Bada ya muda mure iye wanena kukirira na muthawali Daudi kahi za Maoro gadzigohadzwa kare akiamba
We know that Joshua did not lead the people into the place of rest that God promised We know this because God spoke later about another day for rest,Kwani kalaho Joshua waalongoza o at'u hatha akiangiza haryahu hat'u ha kuoya Mulungu k'akanenere dzulu za siku nyingine bule
This shows that the seventhday restfor Gods people is still to come,Kwa vizho bai kusere na siku ya kuoya kwa at'u a Mulungu
God rested after he finished his work So everyone who enters Gods place of rest will also have rest from their own work just as God did,Kwani kila andiyengira kahi za kuoya kwa Mulungu andaoya kula kwa kazize zosi here Mulungu arizhohenda kula kwa kazize
So let us try as hard as we can to enter Gods place of rest We must try hard so that none of us will be lost by following the example of those who refused to obey God,Kwa vizho bai nafujeze here zhadimikikazho fwangire kahi za haryahu hat'u ha kuoya ili kwamba hasikale na mut'u hatha mumwenga andiyekosa kwangira kwa ut'u wa kuko kutsamusikira Mulungu
Gods wordis alive and working It is sharper than the sharpest sword and cuts all the way into us It cuts deep to the place where the soul and the spirit are joined Gods word cuts to the center of our joints and our bones It judges the thoughts and feelings in our hearts,Kwani neno ra Mulungu ri moyo na rina nguvu rinarya kukira mushu wa kurya kosi-kosi Rinadunga kahi za mioyo yehu na maroho gehu na kwangira-ngira kahi za vilungo zhehu zhosi kahi za misoza na mudhetso na kumanya maazo na nia za mioyo yehu
Nothing in all the world can be hidden from God He can clearly see all things Everything is open before him And to him we must explain the way we have lived,K'akuna chumbe chochosi kiricho ndani-ndani zhomu hatha Mulungu akale k'adima kuchona Iye anaona kila kit'u mana kwakwe iye vit'u zhosi vi halamu na vinaoneka lwazu Kidza fundakwenda hukanenet'o dzulu za mahendo gehu gosi mbere za kwakwe iye
We have a great high priest who has gone to live with God in heaven He is Jesus the Son of God So let us continue to express our faith in him,Bai funa mulombi mubomu zhomu Jesu Masihi Mwana wa Mulungu ariyekwenda kuko mulunguni ariko Mulungu Kwa vizho ro kuluhiro huriro naro kwakwe nafurigwire kurunya
Jesus our high priest is able to understand our weaknesses When Jesus lived on earth he was tempted in every way He was tempted in the same ways we are tempted but he never sinned,Iye mulombi wehu be ni mulombi ariye anafuonera mbazi kahi za unyonge wehu Kwani wajezwa kwa kila ngira dza zho fujezwazho siswi ela k'ahendere dambi bule
With Jesus as our high priest we can feel free to come before Gods throne where there is grace There we receive mercy and kindness to help us when we need it,Kwa vizho nafukisongerere kihi cha endzi cha Mulungu mwenye nema hasiho woga Haho hundadima kuhokera mbazi na nema vit'u vindizhofwaviza wakathi hukikala huna haja nazho
Every Jewish high priest is chosen from among men That priest is given the work of helping people with the things they must do for God He must offer to God gifts and sacrifices for sins,Kila mulombi mubomu mwenye atsagulwa kula kahi za anadamu andziye na akagerwa kazi ya kuwakilisha andziye kahi za uhusiano wao na Mulungu Iye nikuhala vigerwa na sadaka za kuusira dambi kula kwa o at'u na akavimboza kwa Mulungu
The high priest has his own weaknesses So he is able to be gentle with those who do wrong out of ignorance,Iye nikuaonera mbazi at'u masiomanya kit'u na at'u mahendao makosa kwa kukala ye mwenye naye ni mut'u munyonge dza o angine
He offers sacrifices for their sins but he must also offer sacrifices for his own sins,Ndosa akikala anamboza sadaka ya kuusizwa dambi nikudzimbozera ye mwenye kidza akaambozera o at'u nao
To be a high priest is an honor But no one chooses himself for this work That person must be chosen by God just as Aaron was,Na k'akuna mut'u adimaye kudzitsagula mwenye kare thu kwa kukala anahendza ishima ya kukala mulombi mubomu Hatha bule Mut'u akala mulombi mubomu kwa kuifwa ni Mulungu here Haruni arizhoifwa
It is the same with Christ He did not choose himself to have the honor of becoming a high priest But God chose him God said to him,Na vizho ndizho virizhokala kwa Masihi Iye k'adzanulire akale mulombi mubomu bule ela watsagulwa ni Mulungu Kwani iye Mulungu wamwamba kukala
And in another part of the Scriptures God says,Kidza ananena kaheri kahi za gago Maoro na kumwamba
While Jesus lived on earth he prayed to God asking for help from the one who could save him from death He prayed to God with loud cries and tears And his prayers were answered because of his great respect for God,Jesu arihokala haha dhuniani wamuvoya sana yuyahu ariye were ndiye mwenye wadimi wa kumuthizha na kifwa Iye wamuririra kwa kiriro kibomu na akimwagikwa ni matsozi Naye kwa kukala were anamwagoha Mulungu Mulungu akimusikira
Jesus was the Son of God but he still suffered and through his sufferings he learned to obey whatever God says,Na ingahokala Jesu were ni Mwana wa Mulungu wadzifundisha kukala musikizi kula kwa go mateso arigogapata
This made him the perfect high priest who provides the way for everyone who obeys him to be saved forever,Bai arihokala adzagonya kukamilisha kila kirichokala kinavirya akihende wakala sina ra wo wokolwi wa kare na kare kwa at'u osi mamusikirao iye
God made him high priest just like Melchizedek,Mulungu akimuhendya akale mulombi mubomu mwenye kahi za ulombi mumwenga na Melikizedeki
We have many things to tell you about this But it is hard to explain because you have stopped trying to understand,Funa maut'u manji ga kunena dzulu ya gaga ela ni vikomu kugaeleza kwa kukala k'amugwira haraka
You have had enough time that by now you should be teachers But you need someone to teach you again the first lessons of Gods teaching You still need the teaching that is like milk You are not ready for solid food,Kwani kala si vizho saa zizi ngere mu alimu ela nwi hangu haho hatha vivi muchere kuhendza mut'u wa kumufundisha maut'u ga kwandza kamare kahi za neno ra Mulungu Muchere a mazia k'amudzakala a chakurya kikomu
Anyone who lives on milk is still a baby and is not able to understand much about living right,Mana kila mut'u ariye achere maziani ni muhoho mutsanga na k'adima kumanya hachi ni noni
But solid food is for people who have grown up From their experience they have learned to see the difference between good and evil,Ela chakurya kikomu ni cha at'u azima mario akili zao mazifundisha kare kwa kudzizoweza kutofautisha madzo na mai
And thats what we will do if God allows,Na Mulungu akihendza fundagathalala fukumale
Some people are like land that gets plenty of rain and produces a good crop for those who farm it That kind of land has Gods blessing,Munda uriwo unapigwa ni vula kwenda na unazhala mavuno gamalwago ni o ak'urima mariourima Mulungu ni kuuhasa
But other people are like land that grows only thorns and weeds It is worthless and in danger of being cursed by God It will be destroyed by fire,Ela kala undamera kimbiri na kidunga-dunga munda uwo k'auna mana yoyosi na k'aukure na kulaniwa ni Mulungu na mwishowe uhende kuochwa kamare
Dear friends I am not saying this because I think it is happening to you We really expect that you will do betterthat you will do the good things that will result in your salvation,Asena fukinena vivi si kwamba vizho ndo vindizhokala kwenu hatha Siswi funa hakika kukala kuna maut'u madzo zaidhi gambolago kahi za uwo wokolwi wenu
God is fair and he will remember all the work you have done He will remember that you showed your love to him by helping his people and that you continue to help them,Kwani Mulungu ni muhachi na k'andasahau bule zho murizho hangu chaho hatha vivi munaahumikira na kuanyesa mahendzo at'ue kwa ut'u wa kwakwe iye
We want each of you to be willing and eager to show your love like that the rest of your life Then you will be sure to get what you hope for,Fukahendza zhomu kukala kila mumwenga wenu akale na moyo uwo wa chadi na uhakika wa kukala garyahu maut'u mugatharizago gandakamilika muhaka mwisho
We dont want you to be lazy We want you to be like those who because of their faith and patience will get what God has promised,Musikale akaha bule ela aigizeni ao mario kwa kukuluhira na kuvumirira kwao mandapata zho Mulungu arizholaga kukala andaap'a
God made a promise to Abraham And there is no one greater than God so he made the promise with an oath in his own namean oath that he would do what he promised,Mulungu arihoika kilagane na Burahemu walaha kwa dzinare mwenye mana were k'ahana mut'u mubomu kumukira iye ariye were anadima kulaha kwa dzinare
He said I will surely bless you I will give you many descendants,Bai waamba kukala Jeri wenye mimi nindakuhasa na niluhende lukolo lwa kwako lukale lubomu
Abraham waited patiently for this to happen and later he received what God promised,Na Burahemu wavumirira hatha zho arizhokala Mulungu wamulaga kukala andamup'a akivihokera jeri
People always use the name of someone greater than themselves to make a promise with an oath The oath proves that what they say is true and there is no more arguing about it,Mut'u akilaha nikulaha kwa dzina ra mut'u ariye dzuluze na kulaha kuko nikugonya k'anani zosi
God wanted to prove that his promise was true He wanted to prove this to those who would get what he promised He wanted them to understand clearly that his purposes never change So God said something would happen and he proved what he said by adding an oath,Na Mulungu were anamala kuahakikishira ao mandiohokera zho vilagane kukala k'andagaluza nia bule Kwa vizho akilaha kukala andavihenda
These two things cannot change God cannot lie when he says something and he cannot lie when he makes an oath,Kwa vizho Mulungu wahenda vit'u viri waika kilagane na akilaha kukala andakithimiza Na vizho vit'u viri k'avidima kugaluka kwa kukala iye k'anena ulongo bule Kwa ut'u uwo bai siswi furiomuhendya akale ch'imbiriro yehu funagerwa moyo zhomu kukala yo th'amaa furiyoikirwa mbere zehu be fuigwire ngwa kamare
This hope is like an anchor for us It is strong and sure and keeps us safe It goes behind the curtain,Uhakika uu furiwo nawo unahendya roho zehu zikale imara salama na zenye nguvu here dau ridzirogwaga nanga Kidza uhakika uu undafulongoza hatha futhalale yo p'azia na fwangire kahi za ho hat'u haeriha Mulungu
Jesus has already entered there and opened the way for us He has become the high priest forever just like Melchizedek,Jesu wafuthangulia kare kahi za ho hat'u haeri ha Mulungu kwa ut'u wehu siswi Naye wahenda vizho bada ya kukala adzahendywa mulombi wehu mubomu wa kare na kare mwenye ulombi karakara na wa Melikizedeki
Melchizedek was the king of Salem and a priest for God the Most High He met Abraham when Abraham was coming back after defeating the kings That day Melchizedek blessed him,Melikizedeki were ni muthawali wa mudzi wa Salemu kidza were ni mulombi wa Mulungu ariye dzulu ya zhosi Siku mwenga Burahemu were ala vihani na were adzaashinda athawali kahi za viha vizho Melikizedeki achendamutsangira Burahemu na akimuhasa
Then Abraham gave him a tenth of everything he had,Bai Burahemu wamup'a Melikizedeki fungu ra kumi ra kila kit'u arichokala adzakipata kuko vihani Dzina ra Melikizedeki manaye ni Muthawali wa hachi na pia iye ni Muthawali wa dheri kwa kukala iye were ni muthawali wa Salemu na mana ya Salemu ni dheri
No one knows who his father or mother was or where he came fromAnd no one knows when he was born or when he died Melchizedek is like the Son of God in that he will always be a priest,Melikizedeki k'amanyikana babaye hedu mameye hedu hatha lukolo lwa kwakwe K'amanyikana kala wazhalwa rini hedu wafwa rini Iye ni here Mwana wa Mulungu ni mulombi kare na kare
You can see that Melchizedek was very great Abraham our great ancestor gave him a tenth of everything he won in battle,Lolani zho Melikizedeki arizhokala na cheo kibomu hatha Burahemu ye mukare wehu mwenye kidza wamup'a Melikizedeki fungu ra kumi ra kila kit'u arichopata ko vihani
Now the law says that those from the tribe of Levi who become priests must get a tenth from their own people even though they and their people are both from the family of Abraham,H'aya lolani kaheri aryahu at'u a lukolo lwa Lawi mariotsagulwa kukala alombi sheria inaaruhusu kuhokera fungu ra kumi kula kwa o Aiziraeli angine ingahokala osi manambola kahi za lukolo lwa Burahemu
Melchizedek was not even from the tribe of Levi but Abraham gave him a tenth of what he had And Melchizedek blessed Abrahamthe one who had Gods promises,Ela fukimulola Melikizedeki hatha k'ana lukolo na Lawi kamare ela wahokera fungu ra kumi kula kwa Burahemu na akimuhasa iye ariyehokera vilagane zha Mulungu
And everyone knows that the more important person always blesses the less important person,Na vi lwazu kwa kila mut'u kamare kukala ye ahasaye mut'u ni mubomu kumukira ye ahaswaye
Those priests get a tenth but they are only men who live and then die But Melchizedek who got a tenth from Abraham continues to live as the Scriptures say,Ukilola o alombi mahokerao mafungu ga kumi ni at'u a kufwa na kuola Ela fungu ra kumi rirohokerwa ni Melikizedeki rahokerwa ni mut'u aishiye here Maoro gaambazho
Now those from the family of Levi are the ones who get a tenth from the people But we can say that when Abraham paid Melchizedek a tenth then Levi also paid it,Na kwandza funadima fukaamba kukala iye Lawi mwenye ariye anae manahokera mafungu ga kumi wamup'a fungu ra kumi Melikizedeki kukirira kwa ye Burahemu
Levi was not yet born but he already existed in his ancestor Abraham when Melchizedek met him,Funadima kunena vivi kwa kukala wakathi Melikizedeki arihothunganana na Burahemu Lawi were achere uhumboni mwa mukarewe Burahemu
The people were given the law under the system of priests from the tribe of Levi But no one could be made spiritually perfect through that system of priests So there was a need for another priest to come I mean a priest like Melchizedek not Aaron,Kukirira kwa uwo ulombi wa Alawi ana a Iziraeli mahokera sheria kula kwa Mulungu Na kala ulombi wao waahendya at'u makale kamili k'akukakalire na haja ya mulombi mungine Ela kwa kukala ulombi wao k'audimire kuhenda vivi kukikala ni lazima kwambole mulombi mungine mwenye ulombi karakara na wa Melikizedeki si karakara na wa Haruni
And when a different kind of priest comes then the law must be changed too,Mana ulombi ukigaluka hatha zo sheria nazo nikugaluka
And these things become even clearer when we see that another priest has come who is like Melchizedek,Bai vivi vi lwazu zaidhi kukala yo sheria ya Mulungu yagaluka kwa kukala kwambola mulombi mungine mwenye ariye kahi za ulombi wa Melikizedeki
He was made a priest but not because he met the requirement of being born into the right family He became a priest by the power of a life that will never end,Mulombi yuyu k'akalire mulombi kwa kuthuwa sheria na amuri za uko wao ela wakala mulombi kwa nguvu arizo nazo iye Na nguvu zizo ni za kukala moyo hatha kare na kare bila kufwa na kuola
This is what the Scriptures say about him You are a priest foreverthe kind of priest Melchizedek was,Kwani hatha Maoro gananena dzulu ya vivi na kuamba
The old rule is now ended because it was weak and worthless,Kwa vizho iyo sheria ya kapindi ya kuhusu ulombi yagwagwa k'anda kwa kukala were k'aina nguvu kidza were k'aina mana yoyosi
The Law of Moses could not make anything perfect But now a better hope has been given to us And with that hope we can come near to God,Kwani iyo sheria k'aihendere kit'u chochosi kikale kamili bule ela vino fwahendywa fukale na th'amaa mbidzo zaidhi Na kukirira na iyo th'amaa iyo funamusongerera hehi Mulungu
Also it is important that God made a promise with an oath when he made Jesus high priest When those other men became priests there was no oath,H'aya zho mbai bai wakathi uu Mulungu walaha kamare ut'u ariwo k'auhendere bule wakathi arihokala anaatsagula Alawi makale alombi
But Christ became a priest with Gods oath God said to him,Ela wakathi arihokala anamuhendya Jesu akale mulombi walaha akiamba
So this means that Jesus is the guarantee of a better agreement from God to his people,Na kulaha kuku kwamuhendya Jesu akale nde muimiriri wa kiki kilagane kidzo zaidhi
Also when one of those other priests died he could not continue being a priest So there were many of those priests,Ut'u ungine uriwo haho ni kukala ao alombi angine were ni anji kwa kukala kifwa k'akiap'ere nafasi ya kuhenda kazi siku zosi
But Jesus lives forever He will never stop serving as a priest,Ela Jesu ye ni mulombi kwenda-kwenda kwa kukala iye anaishi kare na kare
So Christ can save those who come to God through him Christ can do this forever because he always lives and is ready to help people when they come before God,Kwa ut'u uwo wenye bai Jesu siku zosi ana wadimi wa kuaokola kamare at'u osi mamwenderao Mulungu kukirira kwakwe iye kwa kukala iye anaishi siku zosini ili aavoyere
So Jesus is the kind of high priest we need He is holy He has no sin in him He is pure and not influenced by sinners And he is raised above the heavens,Jesu ndiye mulombi mubomu mwenye furiyekala funamumala Iye ni mueri k'ana dambi hedu kaila kokosi Iye wathengwa kure na enye dambi na achanulwa dzulu kukira zhumbe zhosi ko mulunguni
He is not like those other priests They had to offer sacrifices every day first for their own sins and then for the sins of the people But Jesus doesnt need to do that He offered only one sacrifice for all time He offered himself,Iye k'amala kulazha sadaka kila siku kwa ut'u wa dambize mwenye kwandza gonya kwa ut'u wa dambi za at'u angine here o alombi abomu a Kiyahudi marizhokala makihenda Iye wadzilazha iye mwenye akikala sadaka Sadaka ii wailazha lumwenga lwenye nayo ikithosha
The law chooses high priests who are men and have the same weaknesses that all people have But after the law God spoke the oath that made his Son high priest And that Son made perfect through suffering will serve forever,Bai sheria were inaatsagula at'u mario k'amakamili na kuahendya alombi abomu Ela bada ya yo sheria Mulungu wamutsagula Mwanawe akale mulombi mubomu mwenye kwa kulaha Mwana yuyu were Mulungu wagonya kare kumuhendya kamili kare na kare
Here is the point of what we are saying We have a high priest like that who sits on the right sideof Gods throne in heaven,Vikara kahi za gaga maneno gosi fuganenago haha kit'u kibomu ni kukala funa mulombi mubomu mwenye kuko dzulu mulunguni Mulombi yuyu akelesi mukono wa kurya wa kihi cha kithawali cha Mulungu mwenye nguvu dzulu ya zhosi
Our high priest serves in the Most Holy PlaceHe serves in the true place of worshipthat was made by God not by anyone here on earth,Anahenda kazi ya ulombi kahi za ho hat'u haeri ndani ya ro hema ra jeri ririroakwa ni Bwana mwenye si hema ririroakwa ni mudamu
Every high priest has the work of offering gifts and sacrifices to God So our high priest must also offer something to God,Kwa kukala kila mulombi mubomu nikutsagulwa ili amwambozere Mulungu zawadi na sadaka mulombi wehu mubomu naye ni hatha akale na ut'u wa kumwambozera Mulungu
If our high priest were now living on earth he would not be a priest I say this because there are already priests here who follow the law by offering gifts to God,Kalaho mulombi yuyu be a haha dhuniani ngere si mulombi bule mana haha be hana alombi mambozao zawadi kwa Mulungu kuthuwana na Sheria ya Kiyahudi
The work that these priests do is really only a copy and a shadow of what is in heaven That is why God warned Moses when he was ready to build the Holy Tent Be sure to make everything exactly like the pattern I showed you on the mountain,Yo kazi ya ulombi maihendayo haha be ni mufano wa yo iriyo kahi za ho hat'u haeri kuko mulunguni Kwani hatha Musa naye arihokala anamala kuaka ro hema Mulungu wamulagiza akiamba Hakikisha kukala kila kit'u unakitengeza kulengana na wo muundo uriwowanyeswa ko dzulu murimani
But the work that has been given to Jesus is much greater than the work that was given to those priests In the same way the new agreement that Jesus brought from God to his people is much greater than the old one And the new agreement is based on better promises,Ela here fuonazho kazi ya ulombi ariyoigerwa Masihi ni bomu zhomu kukira yo yao Na hatha cho kilagane akiimiriracho nacho ni kidzo kukira cho cha kapindi Kwani maut'u garigolagwa kahi za kilagane kiki ni madzo zaidhi
If there was nothing wrong with the first agreement then there would be no need for a second agreement,Kwani kala cho kilagane cha kwandza were k'akina kaila kokosi ngere k'akukakalire na haja ya kilagane cha hiri
But God found something wrong with the people He said,Ela Mulungu waona kukala at'ue mana makosa ndo hatha akiamba
Never again will anyone have to teach their neighbors,Kundakala k'akuna haja ya mut'u kumufundisha mwandziwe kumwamba
And I will forgive the wrongs they have done,Mana nindaaonera mbazi niasamehe dambi zao
God called this a new agreement so he has made the first agreement old And anything that is old and useless is ready to disappear,Bai Mulungu arihonena dzulu za kilagane kisha were adzaona kukala kiryahu cha kapindi kidzauya k'akifwaha kaheri Na ut'u uriwo udzathumika hatha k'aufwaha kaheri u thayari kwangamika
The first agreement had rules for worship and a place for worship here on earth,Vikara kiryahu kilagane cha kwandza were kina malagizoge garigokala gakithuwiwa wakathi wa kumuvoya Mulungu Kidza were kina hema ra kwakwe haha dhuniani
This place was inside a tent The first area in the tent was called the Holy Place In the Holy Place were the lamp and the table with the special bread offered to God,Hema riri were rina chumba cha halamu na cha ndani Ndani ya cho chumba cha halamu were muna kiguzo cha kuikira mataa na meza Dzulu ya yo meza were hana mikahe ya sadaka Chumba kiki were kiifwa Hat'u Haeri
Behind the second curtain was a room called the Most Holy Place,Cho chumba cha ndani were kiifwa Hat'u Haeri Kukira Kueri Kosi Cho chumba cha ndani na cho cha halamu were zhagazhwa ni p'azia
In the Most Holy Place was a golden altar for burning incense And also there was the Box of the Agreement The Box was covered with gold Inside this Box was a golden jar of manna and Aarons rodthe rod that once grew leaves Also in the Box were the flat stones with the Ten Commandments of the old agreement on them,Ndani ya cho chumba cha ndani were muna kijaja cha dhahabu cha kufukizira mavumba na Sanduku ra Kilagane ririrohakwa dhahabu p'ande zosi Ndani ya ro Sanduku ra Kilagane were muna nyungu ya dhahabu iriyokala ina Manana ndhath'a ya Haruni iriyokala ina makodza ga kubula Kidza mwere muna viryahu vihande viri zha mawe virizhondhikwa zo amuri kumi za Mulungu
Above the Box were the Cherub angels that showed Gods glory These Cherub angels were over the place of mercyBut we cannot say everything about this now,Dzulu za ro Sanduku ra Kilagane were hana makerubiairi mario were ni muvano wa kukala Mulungu a haho Makerubi ao were madzafinikira cho kihi cha mbazi ambaho were ni hat'u ha kusamehewa dambi Ela gago nafugarichire haha mana k'afudima kuthala kila kit'u bule
Everything in the tent was made ready in the way I have explained Then the priests went into the first room every day to do their worship duties,Wakathi vit'u zhosi virihokala vidzatengezwa na kila kit'u kidzaikwa hat'uhe o alombi makala machangira kahi za cho chumba cha halamu siku zosi na kuhenda kazi yao ya ulombi
But only the high priest could go into the second room and he went in only once a year Also he could never enter that room without taking blood with him He offered that blood to God for himself and for the sins the people committed without knowing they were sinning,Ela cho chumba cha ndani were k'achangira mut'u mungine yoyosi isihokala ye mulombi mubomu mwenye h'akeye Kidza hatha iye naye were angira lumwenga kwa mwaka Na kila arihongira mumo were suthi ende na milatso ya kumwambozera sadaka Mulungu Sadaka ii were ni ya kuusa dambi za kwakwe iye mwenye na dambi za at'u osi marizokala mazihenda kwa kutsamanya
The Holy Spirit uses those two separate rooms to teach us that the way into the Most Holy Placewas not open while the first room was still there,Bai kulengana na malagizo gaga Roho Mweri ananyesa lwazu kukala ho Hat'u Haeri Kukira Kueri Kosi were k'ahadima kwangirwa ni at'u kuno cho chumba cha halamu na maut'u ga cho kilagane cha kare vichereko
This is an example for us today It shows that the gifts and sacrifices the priests offer to God are not able to make the consciences of the worshipers completely clear,Uu ni mufano kahi za siku zizi furizo Kwani kulengana na go malagizo alombi manalazha zawadi na sadaka kwa Mulungu Ela vit'u vivi vilazhwazho k'aviahendya o alazhi makale kamili kahi za mioyo yao
These gifts and sacrifices are only about food and drink and special washings They are only rules about the body God gave them for his people to follow until the time of his new way,Vivi ni kwa kukala malagizo gaga ganahusu zhakurya na vinywaji na maut'u ga kudzitsusa garigo ni maut'u ga mwiri thu Kazi ya malagizo gaga indagoma haho Mulungu andihogaluza maut'u gaga gosi
But Christ has already come to be the high priest He is the high priest of the good things we now have But Christ does not serve in a place like the tent that those other priests served in He serves in a better place Unlike that tent this one is perfect It was not made by anyone here on earth It does not belong to this world,Ela Masihi wakudza here mulombi mubomu mwenye wa zho vit'u vidzo virizhogonya kare kudza Wangira kahi za ro hema bomu ririro kamili Hema riro k'aritengezerwe na mikono ya mudamu bule mana si ra urumwengu uu
Christ entered the Most Holy Place only one timeenough for all time He entered the Most Holy Place by using his own blood not the blood of goats or young bulls He entered there and made us free from sin forever,Masihi wangira kahi za ho Hat'u Haeri kuko mulunguni lumwenga lwenye na vikikala ni basi Arihongira mumo k'enderemwambozera Mulungu sadaka ya milatso ya ndhenge na ndzao hatha Iye wakwendamwambozera Mulungu sadaka ya milatsoye mwenye Na kwa kuhenda vizho akihurehera wokolwi wa kare na kare
The blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a cow were sprinkled on those who were no longer pure enough to enter the place of worship The blood and ashes made them pure againbut only their bodies,Kahi za go malagizo ga kapindi at'u mario were kulengana na dini ya Kiyahudi ni achafu were makathivirwa-thivirwa milatso ya mbuzi na ya ndzao na ivu ra ndama Nao were makihendwa viryahu kulengana na dini yao miri yao nikukala misafi
So surely the blood sacrifice of Christ can do much more Christ offered himself through the eternal Spiritas a perfect sacrifice to God His blood will make us completely clean from the evil we have done It will give us clear consciences so that we can worship the living God,Vikara kala milatso ya ng'ombe na mbuzi thu kidza yaahendya at'u makikala asafi h'e seze milatso ya Masihi Vidze yo k'aindahenda zaidhi Kukirira na nguvu za ye Roho wa kare na kare Masihi wadzilazha sadaka isiyo na kaila kwa Mulungu Nayo milatsoye indasafisha kazi mbii-mbii zosi zirizo mioyoni mwehu ili fumuhumikire Mulungu ariye moyo
So Christ brings a new agreement from God to his people He brings this agreement so that those who are chosen by God can have the blessings God promised blessings that last forever This can happen only because Christ died to free people from sins committed against the commands of the first agreement,Ndosa Masihi ndiye afugwizanyaye siswi na Mulungu kahi za cho kilagane kisha Na kukirira kwa iye at'u osi mandioifwa ni Mulungu mandahokera baraka za kare na kare arizolaga Mulungu Na vivi vindakala kwa kukala Masihi wafwa na akiakombola at'u kula kahi za makosa marigogahenda wakathi marihokala ts'ini ya cho kilagane cha kwandza
When someone dies and leaves a will there must be proof that the one who wrote the will is dead,Vikara mut'u akikala adzafwa ela akale wandhika malagizo fulani wakathi arihokala achere moyo malagizo garyahu k'agadima kuthuwiwa muhaka at'u mahakikishe kukala yuyahu ariyegandhika wafwa jeri
A will means nothing while the one who wrote it is still living It can be used only after that persons death,Kwani malagizo dza gago k'agana mana yoyosi wakathi ye mut'u ariyegandhika akikala achere moyo Ela wakathi akifwa malagizo gago ganadima kuhumirwa
That is why blood was needed to begin the first agreement between God and his people,Na ndosa hatha cho kilagane cha kwandza kidza chahendywa kilagane ni milatso ya nyama mariotsindzwa
First Moses told the people every command in the law Then he took the blood of young bulls and mixed it with water He used red wool and a branch of hyssop to sprinkle the blood and water on the book of the law and on all the people,Kwani wakathi Musa arihokala adzagonya kuashomera Aiziraeli amuri zosi za Mulungu wahala milatso ya ng'ombe na ya mbuzi akiitsanganya na madzi Gonya akihala pamba thune na kivungo cha muhi uifwao hisopu akikithivira cho kithabu cha Sheria kwandza gonya akiathivira-thivira o at'u osi
Then he said This is the blood that makes the agreement goodthe agreement that God commanded you to follow,akiamba ii ndo milatso ya cho kilagane aricho Mulungu wamulagiza mukithuwe
In the same way Moses sprinkled the blood on the Holy Tent He sprinkled the blood over everything used in worship,Anala haho akithivira-thivira milatso ro hema na viya zhosi virizhohumirwa wakathi wa kumuvoya Mulungu
The law says that almost everything must be made clean by blood Sins cannot be forgiven without a blood sacrifice,Na kahi za yo sheria ni jeri kukala milatso ndo isafishayo karibu kila kit'u Dambi k'aidima kusamehewa hasiho milatso kumwagwa
These things are copies of the real things that are in heaven These copies had to be made clean by animal sacrifices But the real things in heaven must have much better sacrifices,Bai sadaka zizi za milatso were zinafwaha kwa kuvihendya safi vit'u virizho ni mufano wa vit'u zha mulunguni Ela kuhendya vit'u zha mulunguni vikale visafi were ni hatha kumbozwe sadaka bomu kukira zizo za ng'ombe na mbuzi
Christ went into the Most Holy Place But it was not the manmade one which is only a copy of the real one He went into heaven and he is there now before God to help us,Kwani Masihi k'angirire kahi za hat'u haeri harihotengezwa ni anadamu mana hat'u haha ni mufano thu wa haho hat'u haeri hariho ko mulunguni Ela Masihi wangira kuko mulunguni kwenye na aimire mbere za Mulungu kwa ut'u wehu siswi
The high priest enters the Most Holy Place once every year He takes with him blood to offer But he does not offer his own blood like Christ did Christ went into heaven but not to offer himself many times like the high priest offers blood again and again,Mulombi mubomu mwenye wa Kiyahudi were angira kahi za ho Hat'u Haeri Kukira Kueri Kosi k'ana mwenga kwa mwaka Naye were akalazha sadaka ya milatso ya mifugo si milatsoye mwenye Ela Masihi ye wangira k'ana mwenga yenye na akimboza sadaka ya milatso ya kwakwe mwenye
If Christ had offered himself many times he would have needed to suffer many times since the time the world was made But he came to offer himself only once And that once is enough for all time He came at a time when the world is nearing an end He came to take away all sin by offering himself as a sacrifice,Kwani kala were ni muhimu kumboza sadaka kwenda-kwenda ngere hangu urumwengu uumbwe anafwa akiandzat'o hatha vivi Ela here virizho wakudza siku zizi za mwisho ili kwa kudzimboza sadaka iye mwenye akause dambi zosi Naye wavihenda lumwenga lwenye na vikithosha
Everyone must die once Then they are judged,Na here virizhothalwa kila mut'u andafwa lumwenga na bada ya kufwa hukumu ya Mulungu inamuthariza
So Christ was offered as a sacrifice one time to take away the sins of many people And he will come a second time but not to offer himself for sin He will come the second time to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him,Na kahi za ngira iyo vizho Masihi naye wambozwa sadaka lumwenga akihala dambi za at'u anji na bai anadza kaheri mara ya hiri Charo kiki k'andakudza ause dambi bule ela andakudzaaokola aryahu mamutharizao kwa hamu
Faith is what makes real the things we hope for It is proof of what we cannot see,Kuluhiro ni kuryahu kukala na uhakika kukala garyahu maut'u furigo funagalolera na th'amaa gandakudzahendeka Ni kuryahu kukala na uhakika wa maut'u furigo k'afudzagaona
God was pleased with the people who lived a long time ago because they had faith like this,Kwani hatha o akare ehu kidza Mulungu waalika kwa kukala mere manamukuluhira
Faith helps us understand that God created the whole world by his command This means that the things we see were made by something that cannot be seen,Kwa kuluhiro siswi funang'alirwa kukala Mulungu waumba urumwengu kwa kuhenda kunena thu Kwa vizho vit'u zhosi vionekazho zhaumbwa kula kwa vit'u visizhooneka
Cain and Abel both offered sacrifices to God But Abel offered a better sacrifice to God because he had faith God said he was pleased with what Abel offered And so God called him a good man because he had faith Abel died but through his faith he is still speaking,Kwa kuluhiro Abeli wamwambozera Mulungu sadaka mbidzo kumukira Kaini Na Mulungu akinyesa kukala Abeli ni mut'u muhachi kwa kuhokera sadaka ya kwakwe Na hatha ingahokala Abeli wafwa kapindi mut'u iye achere kunena naswi kukirira na riro kuluhiro ra kwakwe hatha rero
Enoch was carried away from this earth so he never died The Scriptures tell us that before he was carried off he was a man who pleased God Later no one knew where he was because God had taken Enoch to be with him This all happened because he had faith,Kwa kuluhiro Enok'o k'afwere bule wakwenda mulunguni wa moyo At'u k'amamonere mana Mulungu wamutsanya wa moyo Maoro gananyesa kukala kabila Enok'o kwenda mulunguni wakala akimufwahiza Mulungu
Without faith no one can please God Whoever comes to God must believe that he is real and that he rewards those who sincerely try to find him,Na k'akuna mut'u adimaye kumufwahiza Mulungu hasiho kukala na kuluhiro Mana kila amalaye kumwendera Mulungu suthi akale anakuluhira kukala Mulungu a kuko na kukala iye nikuap'a zawadi aryahu mamumalao
Noah was warned by God about things that he could not yet see But he had faith and respect for God so he built a large boat to save his family With his faith Noah showed that the world was wrong And he became one of those who are made right with God through faith,Nuhu waonywa ni Mulungu dzulu za maut'u garigo were gandahendeka Maut'u gago were k'agadzaonewa kamare Ela kwa kuluhiro Nuhu akimusikira Mulungu Akijenga safina ririromuthizha iye hamwenga na adamue Kwa kuhenda vizho iye wanyesa kukala at'u a urumwengu uwo ni akosa na akipata uhachi uriwo unapatikana kwa kukuluhira
God called Abraham to travel to another place that he promised to give him Abraham did not know where that other place was But he obeyed God and started traveling because he had faith,Burahemu waifwa ni Mulungu ende kahi za ts'i ariyo were andaigerwa ikale yakwe Na kwa kuluhiro akimusikira Mulungu Akiiricha ts'i ya kwao ingahokala kuko arikokala anenda were k'akumanya bule
Abraham lived in the country that God promised to give him He lived there like a visitor who did not belong He did this because he had faith He lived in tents with Isaac and Jacob who also received the same promise from God,Kwa kuluhiro Burahemu watoa here mujeni kahi za ts'i iryahu ariyolagwa ni Mulungu kukala andaigerwa Watoa kahi za mahema here Isaka na Jakobu marizhohenda badaye At'u aa Burahemu Isaka na Jakobu maikirwa kilagane kimwenga ni Mulungu
Abraham was waiting for the citythat has real foundations He was waiting for the city that is planned and built by God,Naye Burahemu wahenda vizho kwa kukala were anauthariza wo mudzi mubomu uriwo na musinji wa kare na kare Mudzi uriwopimwa na ukijengwa ni Mulungu mwenye
Sarah was not able to have children and Abraham was too old But he had faith in God trusting him to do what he promised And so God made them able to have children,Kwa kuluhiro Sera wagerwa nguvu za kupata mwana hatha vingahokala ye Sera were ni t'asa na kidza osi airi were ni k'ot'o Na vivi zhakala kwa kukala Sera wamanya kukala iye Mulungu ariyemulaga kukala andamup'a mwana ni mwaminifu
Abraham was so old he was almost dead But from that one man came as many descendants as there are stars in the sky So many people came from him that they are like grains of sand on the seashore,Kwa vizho kula kwa mut'u yuyu mumwenga ariyekala adzathumika hatha k'adima kit'u kaheri kuchambola at'u anji here nyenyezi at'u anji masiothalika here mutsanga wa p'wani
All these great people continued living with faith until they died They did not get the things God promised his people But they were happy just to see those promises coming far in the future They accepted the fact that they were like visitors and strangers here on earth,At'u aa osi mafwa manakuluhira vingahokala zho marizholagwa ni Mulungu k'amavipatire Mahenda kuzhona kwa kure na makivithariza kwa furaha Makubali lwazu-lwazu kamare kukala haha dhuniani makudza here ajeni na acharo
When people accept something like that they show they are waiting for a country that will be their own,Mana at'u maambao kukala ao ni ajeni na acharo mananyesa lwazu kukala ni at'u mamalao ts'i yao enye
If they were thinking about the country they had left they could have gone back,K'amaazire bule dzulu za kuko marikombola kwani kala maaza dzulu za kuko be ngere mapata nafasi ya kuuya
But they were waiting for a better countrya heavenly country So God is not ashamed to be called their God And he has prepared a city for them,Ela here virizho ao were mana hamu ya kupata ts'i mbidzo kukira iyo mariyoiricha ts'i ya mulunguni Ndosa Mulungu k'ana haya na kuifwa Mulungu wao kwani waaakira mudzi kuko mulunguni
He believed that God could raise people from death And really when God stopped Abraham from killing Isaac it was as if he got him back from death,Burahemu wamanya kukala Mulungu ana wadimi wa kufufula nyufu Na kunena kindhumo Burahemu wamuhokera Isaka kaheri bada ya kufufulwa
Isaac blessed the future of Jacob and Esau He did that because he had faith,Kwa kuluhiro Isaka waavoyera baraka Jakobu na Esau na akikala na uhakika kukala mandakudzazipata siku za badaye
And Jacob also because he had faith blessed each one of Josephs sons He did this while he was dying leaning on his rod and worshiping God,Kwa kuluhiro Jakobu waahasa ana a Josefu kabila k'adzafwa Waahasa kuno adzaremeza kitswache dzulu za mudhath'awe kumuvoya Mulungu
And when Joseph was almost dead he spoke about the people of Israel leaving Egypt And he told them what they should do with his body He did this because he had faith,Kwa kuluhiro Josefu arihokala akufwani wanena dzulu za Aiziraeli kwambola ts'i ya Misiri Na kwa ut'u uwo akilazha malagizo kukala kala manambola mauhale wo mwiriwe mende nawo
And the mother and father of Moses hid him for three months after he was born They did this because they had faith They saw that Moses was a beautiful baby And they were not afraid to disobey the kings order,Kwa kuluhiro Musa arihozhalwa azhazie mamufitsa kwa miezi mihahu bila kugoha amuri ya muthawali Mahenda vivi kwa kukala mamona ni mwana mudzo wa kufwahiza
He thought it was better to suffer for the Messiah than to have all the treasures of Egypt He was waiting for the reward that God would give him,Waona kukala kuteseka kwa ut'u wa Masihi ni ushaha ubomu kukira ushaha wosi wa Misiri Kwani were ana th'amaa na zawadi andiyoipata mbereni
Moses left Egypt because he had faith He was not afraid of the kings anger He continued strong as if he could see the God no one can see,Kwa kuluhiro Musa wambola Misiri bila kugoha k'oro arizokala nazo muthawali na akivumirira bila kuuya nyuma here kwamba ye Mulungu ariye k'aoneka were anamona
Moses prepared the Passover and spread the blood on the doorways of the people of Israel so that the angel of deathwould not kill their firstborn sons Moses did this because he had faith,Kwa kuluhiro Musa wausa P'asaka na akithiva-thiva milatso mo miryangoni ili ye malaika mwalagi wa ana a kwandza asiagut'e Aiziraeli bule
And Gods people all walked through the Red Sea as if it were dry land They were able to do this because they had faith But when the Egyptians tried to follow them they were drowned,Kwa kuluhiro Aiziraeli mavuka Bahari ya Shamu here kwamba mananenda dzulu za ts'i furufu Ela Amisiri marihovijeza makihoha osi
And the walls of Jericho fell because of the faith of Gods people They marched around the walls for seven days and then the walls fell,Kwa kuluhiro Aiziraeli maudengereka mudzi wa Jeriko kwa siku fungahe na kahi za yo siku ya fungahe k'ut'a za kwakwe zosi zikigwa
And Rahab the prostitute welcomed the Israelite spies like friends And because of her faith she was not killed with the ones who refused to obey,Kwa kuluhiro yuyahu malaya ariyekala anaifwa Rahabu k'alagirwe hamwenga na aryahu mariokala k'amamusikira Mulungu kuko Jeriko Nazho zhakala vizho kwa kukala waakaribishat'o aryahu apelelezi a Kiyahudi
Do I need to give you more examples I dont have enough time to tell you about Gideon Barak Samson Jephthah David Samuel and the prophets,Vino be hatha nineneni kaheri Kwani be nikagwira kunena dzulu za Gidieni na Baraki na Samusoni na Jefutha na Daudi na Samueli na manabii osi kundatswa kidza kuche
All of them had great faith And with that faith they defeated kingdoms They did what was right and God helped them in the ways he promised With their faith some people closed the mouths of lions,Kwani kwa kuluhiro at'u aa maheha na athawali na makiashinda makihenda hachi na makihokera vilagane zha Mulungu H'aya zho navikale k'anda bai at'u aa mafunga makanwa ga simba
And some were able to stop blazing fires Others escaped from being killed with swords Some who were weak were made strong They became powerful in battle and defeated other armies,makizinya myoho mikali na marihokala manamala kuthemwa-themwa malagwe makithia Mere ni at'u masio nguvu ela machangizwa nguvu Makikala ngumbao kahi za viha na makichimbiza majeshi ga kabila nyingine
There were women who lost loved ones but got them back when they were raised from death Others were tortured but refused to accept their freedom They did this so that they could be raised from death to a better life,Kwa kuluhiro anaache mafufulirwa at'u ao mariokala magonya kare kufwa At'u angine o maona ni baha mathuwe kuteswa na mafwe kuriko mamukane Mulungu marichirwe huru Mahenda vivi ili siku ya mwisho makadime kufufulwa na maishi maisha madzo zaidhi
Some were laughed at and beaten Others were tied up and put in prison,Angine mahukanwa makipigwa midhath'a ya mongo Angine o makifungwa minyororo makitsufwa jela
They were killed with stones They were cut in half They were killed with swords The only clothes some of them had were sheepskins or goatskins They were poor persecuted and treated badly by others,Angine malagwa kwa kuhenda kupigwa mawe angine makitoswa na mushumeno visiku viri na angine makilagwa na mishu Angine o mere ni masikini sana Nguwo zao zere ni k'ingo za mbuzi na za ng'ondzi Mere ni at'u a kuonerwa na kuteswa
The world was not good enough for these great people They had to wander in deserts and mountains living in caves and holes in the ground,Mathanga-thanga kahi za nyika na dzulu za mirima makiishi mainani na p'angani At'u ao mere ni adzo zhomu hatha wo urumwengu k'auvirya kukalwa ni at'u dza ao
God was pleased with all of them because of their faith But not one of them received Gods great promise,Bai at'u aa osi ni at'u mariokala k'amadimikika kwa ro kuluhiro marirokala naro ela k'amahokerere bule zho Mulungu arizhoalaga
God planned something better for us He wanted to make us perfect Of course he wanted those great people to be made perfect too but not before we could all enjoy that blessing together,Na vivi ni kwa kukala Mulungu were adzahupangira maut'u madzo zaidhi Na kahi za mupango uwo Mulungu were anamala aahendye kamili hamwenga na siswi
We have all these great people around us as examples Their lives tell us what faith means So we too should run the race that is before us and never quit We should remove from our lives anything that would slow us down and the sin that so often makes us fall,Bai kwa kukala fudzadengerekwa ni kundi bomu ra mashahidhi namuna ii nafugwage kila muzigo udimao kuhuja nyuma kahi za malo gaga furigoikirwa ni Mulungu Nahuriche kila dambi ihuthuwayo-thuwayo na huuke malo kwa kuvumirira
We must never stop looking to Jesus He is the leader of our faith and he is the one who makes our faith complete He suffered death on a cross But he accepted the shame of the cross as if it were nothing because of the joy he could see waiting for him And now he is sitting at the right side of Gods throne,Nafuthuwe kumulola Jesu ariye iye ndiye muandzi wa kuluhiro rehu kidza ndiye andiyerikamilisha Iye wavumirira aebu zosi za kufwa musalabani bila kuzona kukala ni kit'u kwa ut'u wa iyo raha iriyokala iko mbere Na vivi akelesi mukono wa kurya wa kihi cha endzi cha Mulungu
Think about Jesus He patiently endured the angry insults that sinful people were shouting at him Think about him so that you wont get discouraged and stop trying,Hedu lolani zho Jesu arizhopingwa vikali ni enye dambi kidza ye akivumirira gosi Na Jesu waika mufano uu p'ore ninwi mukalela na mukafwa moyo mukaviricha
You are struggling against sin but you have not had to give up your life for the cause,Kwandza hatha kahi za kuko kuheha dambi kwenu k'amudzangwe kuheha nayo hatha mukamwaga mulatso
You are children of God and he speaks words of comfort to you You have forgotten these words,Vidze garya maneno arigoganena Mulungu kukala mu anae ili apate kumwangiza nguvu mudzagasahau Kwani Mulungu wanena akiamba
The Lord disciplines everyone he loves,Kwani Bwana ni kumwangiza akili kila amuhendzaye
So accept sufferings like a fathers discipline God does these things to you like a father correcting his children You know that all children are disciplined by their fathers,Vumirirani kila mateso kwa kukala Mulungu ndizho nikukala akumwangizani akili be vizho Mulungu anamuhalira ninwi here anae Vidze ni mwana hiye asiyengizwa akili ni babaye
So if you never receive the discipline that every child must have you are not true children and dont really belong to God,Mukikala k'amundangizwa akili here ana angine mangizwazho akili mundakala k'amuzhalirwe ni iye hatha mu ana a vuweni
We have all had fathers here on earth who corrected us with discipline And we respected them So it is even more important that we accept discipline from the Father of our spirits If we do this we will have life,Kala babizehu a haha dhuniani thu kidza nikufwangiza akili na fukaaishimu h'e seze ye Babiyehu wa kiroho Samba ye fundamuishimu zaidhi ili fupate kukala moyo
Our fathers on earth disciplined us for a short time in the way they thought was best But God disciplines us to help us so that we can be holy like him,Kwani babizehu a haha dhuniani mafwangiza akili kwa muda muchache thu here marizhoona ao kukala ni karakara ela Mulungu ye anafwangiza akili kikarakara kamare na kwa faidha yehu enye ili kwamba fukadime kukala aeri dza iye
We dont enjoy discipline when we get it It is painful But later after we have learned our lesson from it we will enjoy the peace that comes from doing what is right,Kahi za wakathi uu furiwo kwangizwa akili kunalumiza sana ela badaye ao mangizwao akili na makasikira nikuhokera uhachi na dheri
You have become weak so make yourselves strong again,Kwa vizho bai richani kugwira regerege gwirani muunye Richani kuthethemwa ni magulu imanit'o
Live in the right way so that you will be saved and your weakness will not cause you to be lost,Dzitengezereni ngira za kugoloka na munende kahi za zizo ili cho kigulu chenye kirema kisimarigizwe bule ela kikale kindahola
Try to live in peace with everyone And try to keep your lives free from sin Anyone whose life is not holy will never see the Lord,Hendani here vidimikikazho muishi na dheri na at'u osi kidza mukale aeri Kwani k'akuna mut'u adimaye kumona Bwana bila uwo ueri
Be careful that no one fails to get Gods grace Be careful that no one loses their faith and becomes like a bitter weed growing among you Someone like that can ruin your whole group,Hakikishani kukala k'ahana mut'u hatha mumwenga andiyekosa nema ya Mulungu Hakikishani kukala k'akuna ut'u wowosi udimao kumuhendya mut'u yoyosi kahi zenu akakala na utsungu Kwani sina ra utsungu rikimera kahikahi zenu rindamurehera thabu nyinji kidza anji enu rindaangiza ukolo
Be careful that no one commits sexual sin And be careful that no one is like Esau and never thinks about God As the oldest son Esau would have inherited everything from his father But he sold all that for a single meal,Dzimanyirireni p'ore hakambola mut'u muzindzi kahikahi zenu Kidza p'ore hakambola mut'u asiyemugoha Mulungu here Esau Esau waguza ukuluwe kwa chakurya cha mutsana mumwenga thu
You remember that after Esau did this he wanted to get his fathers blessing He wanted that blessing so much that he cried But his father refused to give him the blessing because Esau could find no way to change what he had done,Na hatha ninwi nanwi munavimanya zho virizhokala Kwani badaye wamala kupata baraka za babaye here mwana mukulu ela vikikala k'azhadimikika bule Warira ga milatso kumala nafasi ya kuthubu ela k'aipatire
You have not come to a place that can be seen and touched like the mountain the people of Israel saw which was burning with fire and covered with darkness gloom and storms,Ninwi k'amudzire hat'u henye vit'u mudimazho kuzhona na matso hedu kuvisikira hedu kuvigut'a dza zho zha Aiziraeli kuko Murima wa Sinai Kwani k'ahana moho mukali hedu kiza cha mugunguna hedu luvutho lukali
There is no sound of a trumpet or a voice speaking words like those they heard When they heard the voice they begged never to hear another word,Kidza k'ahana muriro wa gunda hedu wo mumiro mubomu wa Mulungu uriwoahendya o at'u mamuvoye Musa kukala Mulungu asienderere kunena nao bule
They did not want to hear the command If anything even an animal touches the mountain it must be killed with stones,Kwani k'amadimire kuivumirira bule yo amuri ariyoilazha Mulungu kukala Hatha munyama mwenye be akigut'a wo murima naapigwe mawe hatha afwe
What they saw was so terrible that Moses said I am shaking with fear,Na maut'u gaga were ganagosha jeri kwani hatha Musa wajaliwa ni kuamba Ninathethema kwa woga
But you have come to Mount Zion to the city of the living God the heavenly JerusalemYou have come to a place where thousands of angels have gathered to celebrate,Hatha bule ninwi be mudzire Murima wa Sayuni Mudzire kahi za mudzi wa Mulungu ariye moyo Jerusalemu ya mulunguni Mudzire kwa malaika magana na magana gasigothalika madziokundzumanyika hamwenga kusherehekea
You have come to the meeting of Gods firstbornchildren Their names are written in heaven You have come to God the judge of all people And you have come to the spirits of good people who have been made perfect,Mudzire kahi za muthunganano wa ana a kwandza a Mulungu mario madzina gao gandhikwa kuko mulunguni Mudzire kwa Mulungu ariye ndiye jaji wa at'u osi na kwa roho za at'u ahachi mariohendywa akamilifu
You have come to Jesusthe one who brought the new agreement from God to his people You have come to the sprinkled bloodthat tells us about better things than the blood of Abel,Mudzire kwa Jesu ariye ndiye mugwizanyi wehu kahi za kilagane kiki kisha Kidza mudzire kwa milatso iriyomwagwa Milatso ii inanena dzulu za musamaha na nema k'aihere milatso ya Abeli iririrayo kurihizwa
Be careful and dont refuse to listen when God speaks Those people refused to listen to him when he warned them on earth And they did not escape Now God is speaking from heaven So now it will be worse for those who refuse to listen to him,H'aya musikireni ye anenaye Kwani mukikahala kumusikira be k'amundathia bule O mariokahala kumusikira iye ariyekala ananena nao haha ts'i thu kidza k'amathiyire h'e seze siswi furio ananena naswi kula mulunguni
When he spoke before his voice shook the earth But now he has promised Once again I will shake the earth but I will also shake heaven,Wakathi uwo kuko Murima wa Sinai mumirowe wathethenya ts'i Ela vivi be walaga akiamba Nindathukusa kaheri ela charo kiki sindathukusa ts'i h'akeye bule nindathukusa hatha kuko mulunguni
The words once again clearly show us that everything that was created will be destroyedthat is the things that can be shaken And only what cannot be shaken will remain,Neno riri kaheri rinamanisha kukala vit'u zhosi virizhoumbwa vindathukuswa na viuswe hatha visale zho virizho k'avithukusika
So we should be thankful because we have a kingdom that cannot be shaken And because we are thankful we should worship God in a way that will please him We should do this with respect and fear,Kwa vizho bai nafulazhe muvera kwa Mulungu kwa kuhokera uthawali uu usiwothukusika Nahudzilazhe kwakwe humuvoye kwa ishima na humwagohe here ahendzazho
because our God is like a fire that can destroy us,Kwani Mulungu wehu ni moho mukali uochawo tse-tse-tse
Continue loving each other as brothers and sisters in Christ,Endererani kuhendzana here ndugu
Always remember to help people by welcoming them into your home Some people have done that and have helped angels without knowing it,Karibishani ajeni siku zosi kwani angine mahenda vizho na makikaribisha malaika bila kumanya
Dont forget those who are in prison Remember them as though you were in prison with them And dont forget those who are suffering Remember them as though you were suffering with them,Akumbukireni at'u mario jela here kwamba ninwi nanwi mu kuko Akumbukireni ao mateswao here kwamba ndinwi muteswao
Marriage should be honored by everyone And every marriage should be kept pure between husband and wife God will judge guilty those who commit sexual sins and adultery,Ndoa naiishimiwe ni kila mut'u At'u mariohalana namakale aaminifu kwani Mulungu andaahukumu at'u mazingao
Keep your lives free from the love of money And be satisfied with what you have God has said,Musikale at'u a kuhendza p'esa Thoshekani na zho murizho nazho kwani Mulungu waamba
So we can feel sure and say,Kwa ut'u uwo wenye bai funadima kunena bila woga fukaamba
Remember your leaders They taught Gods message to you Remember how they lived and died and copy their faith,Vidze munaakumbukira o vilongozi enu Ninanena dzulu za aryahu mariomwambiriza neno ra Mulungu Lolani zho maisha gao gadzizhoreha maut'u madzo na muige riro kuluhiro marirokala naro
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday today and forever,Jesu Masihi ni iye mumwenga dzana na rero na hatha kare na kare k'agaluka bule
Dont let all kinds of strange teachings lead you into the wrong way Depend only on Gods grace for spiritual strength not on rules about foods Obeying those rules doesnt help anyone,Bai musingamizwe ngira ni mafundisho mangine majeni Kwani ni vidzo mioyo yehu yangizwe nguvu ni nema ya Mulungu na si kwa kuthuwa mizizo ya zhakurya Mana hatha o mariothuwa mizizo iyo kidza k'amapatire faidha yoyosi
We have a sacrificeAnd those priests who serve in the Holy Tent cannot eat from the sacrifice we have,Siswi funa kijaja cha kwambozera sadaka kiricho o alombi a Kiyahudi mahendao kazi mo hemani k'amana hachi ya kurya chochosi kidzichombozwa haho
The high priest carries the blood of animals into the Most Holy Placeand offers that blood for sins But the bodies of those animals are burned outside the camp,Kwani ye mulombi mubomu mwenye akimboza sadaka ya kutsusa dambi nikukala anamboza milatso h'akeye kahi za ho Hat'u Haeri ela o nyama enye nikwendaochwa ndze ya k'ambi
So Jesus also suffered outside the city He died to make his people holy with his own blood,Na kwa ut'u uwo Jesu naye walagwa kuko ndze ya mudzi ili atsuse at'u dambi kukirira na iyo milatsoye
So we should go to Jesus outside the camp and accept the same shame that he had,Kwa vizho bai nafumuthuwe Jesu kuko ndze ya k'ambi fukapate muthalo wehu kahi za riro hukanwa arirohukanwa na akivumirira
Here on earth we dont have a city that lasts forever But we are waiting for the city that we will have in the future,Kwani k'ahuna mudzi wa kutoa bule haha ts'i ela fuchere kuumala uwo mudzi undiwokudza
So through Jesus we should never stop offering our sacrifice to God That sacrifice is our praise coming from lips that speak his name,Bai kukirira na kwa Jesu nafumwambozere Mulungu sadaka ya kumulika kwenda-kwenda Nafuhende vivi kukirira na go maneno ga kuranula dzinare
And dont forget to do good and to share what you have with others because sacrifices like these are very pleasing to God,Musitsoke kuhenda madzo na kuaviza at'u na vit'u murizho nazho mana zizo be ndo sadaka zimufwahizazo Mulungu
Obey your leaders Be willing to do what they say They are responsible for your spiritual welfare so they are always watching to protect you Obey them so that their work will give them joy not grief It wont help you to make it hard for them,Asikireni vilongozi enu a kiroho na muhende zho mamwambazho Kwani ao ndo arisa a roho zenu na mandakwendamboza hesabu mbere za Mulungu Mukiasikira mandahenda kazi na raha na faidha ni kwenu Ela mukikahala kuasikira mandahenda kazi iyo kwa huzuni nanwi kwenu ninwi kundakala k'akuna faidha yoyosi
Continue praying for us We feel right about what we do because we always try to do what is best,Funa hakika kukala mioyo yehu ni mitsuki kamare na funamala kila fundirorihenda rikale ni ra karakara na ra ishima Kwa vizho bai endererani kuhuvoyera
And I beg you to pray that God will send me back to you soon I want this more than anything else,Na zaidhi sana ninamuvoya munivoyere ili Mulungu akale andanudzya kwenu haraka
I pray that the God of peace will give you every good thing you need so that you can do what he wants God is the one who raised from death our Lord Jesus the Great Shepherd of his sheep He raised him because Jesus sacrificed his blood to begin the new agreement that never ends I pray that God will work through Jesus Christ to do the things in us that please him To him be glory forever Amen,Jesu murisa mubomu wa zo ng'ondzi wamwaga milatsoye akiika kilagane cha kare na kare Bai ninavoya kukala iye Mulungu arehaye dheri na ariyemufufula Bwana wehu Jesu amup'e kila kiricho kidzo cha kumwaviza ninwi muhende mahendzoge Kidza ninavoya kwamba kukirira na kwa Jesu Masihi ahende kazi ndani yenu here ahendzazho mwenye Nguma naikale kwa Jesu Masihi hatha kare na kare H'aami
My brothers and sisters I beg you to listen patiently to what I have said I wrote this letter to strengthen you And it is not very long,Bai ndugu zangu ninamuvoya kukala uvoro uu wa kwangiza nguvu be muugwiret'o Kwani hatha sindhikire ut'u unji bule
I want you to know that our brother Timothy is out of prison If he comes to me soon we will both come to see you,Kidza ningahendza mumanye kukala ndugu yehu T'imoth'i wambola ko jela kwa vizho akidza haraka mundafona hosi kuko
Give my greetings to all your leaders and to all Gods people All those from Italy send you their greetings,Mudzalamuswa ni ndugu a Italiya H'aya fulamusireni vilongozi enu osi hamwenga na at'u osi a Mulungu
Gods grace be with you all,Nema naikale hamwenga nanwi nyosi H'aami
Greetings from James a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ,Baruwa ii ila kwangu mimi Jakobu Mimi ni muhumiki wa Mulungu na pia ni muhumiki wa Bwana Jesu Masihi Baruwa ii ninayandhikira ninwi at'u a mbari kumi na mbiri za Kiyahudi muriomukuluhira Jesu na muriotsamuka kila hat'u Vidze k'amuna ut'u
My brothers and sisters you will have many kinds of trouble But this gives you a reason to be very happy,Bai ndugu zangu kuna wakathi mundakirira mateso ga kumujeza Vikara mundihokirira maut'u gago h'aya be hendani raha
You know that when your faith is tested you learn to be patient in suffering,Mana mujezwaho na mukienderera kukuluhira mundakaza kupata nguvu za kuvumirira mateso
If you let that patience work in you the end result will be good You will be mature and complete You will be all that God wants you to be,Kuvumirira kuku nakuenderere kwenda thu ili mwishowe mudime kukumala kahi za maut'u ga Mulungu na mukale at'u mario kamili na masiotsowa kit'u
Do any of you need wisdom Ask God for it He is generous and enjoys giving to everyone So he will give you wisdom,Vikara chamba hana mut'u yoyosi ariye anatsowa ulachu wa kimulungu naamuvoye ye Mulungu naye andamup'a ulachu uwo Mulungu akimup'a mut'u kit'u nikumup'a kwa unji hasiho kumuchemera
But when you ask God you must believe Dont doubt him Whoever doubts is like a wave in the sea that is blown up and down by the wind,Ela bai chamba mut'u iye anamuvoya Mulungu kit'u naakuluhire asikale na mioyo miri akaamba K'anji ndap'ewa k'anji sindap'ewa Mana mut'u wa mioyo miri k'ana musimamo bule adzahalana na maimbi gafuswago ni lupeho
Believers who are poor should be glad that God considers them so important,Vikara ndugu yoyosi ariye ni masikini anulwaho anavirya ahende raha
Believers who are rich should be glad when bad things happen that humble them Their riches wont keep them from disappearing as quickly as wildflowers,H'aya yuyahu ndugu ariye ni thajiri wakathi andihotharamushwa naahende raha pia mana iye a here maluwa Maluwa nikung'ala-ng'ala gonya gakabagarika gosi iye naye maishage ni mafuti
As the sun rises and gets hotter its heat dries up the plants and the flowers fall off The flowers that were so beautiful are now dead Thats how it is with the rich While they are still making plans for their business they will die,Dzuwa ni kuaka rikalaga zo ngala na uwo udzowe ukagoma na zikabagarika H'aya thajiri naye andakala mwenye a kahi za pirikapirika za kwakwe ahende kuona kifwa thiki kare
Great blessings belong to those who are tempted and remain faithful After they have proved their faith God will give them the rewardof eternal life God promised this to all people who love him,Mut'u akiriraho mateso ga kumujeza na agashinde bai mut'u iye andahaswa Andahaswa kwa kukala andihogonya kujezwa andapata iryahu zawadi ya uzima wa kare na kare iriyo Mulungu wailaga kuap'a aryahu mamuhendzao
Whenever you feel tempted to do something bad you should not say God is tempting me Evil cannot tempt God and God himself does not tempt anyone,Vikara mut'u akijezwa asiambe kukala anajezwa ni Mulungu mana Mulungu k'ajezwa na k'ajeza mut'u
You are tempted by the evil things you want Your own desire leads you away and traps you,Kimujezacho mut'u ni th'amaaze mwenye
Your desire grows inside you until it results in sin Then the sin grows bigger and bigger and finally ends in death,Th'amaa iyo ikienderera nikuzhala dambi Na dambi iyo ikikumala nikuzhala kifwa
My dear brothers and sisters dont be fooled about this,Ndugu zangu ahendzwi musikengwe
Everything good comes from God Every perfect gift is from him These good gifts come down from the Father who made all the lights in the sky But God never changes like the shadows from those lights He is always the same,Vigerwa zhosi vidzo na zawadi zosini zisizo kaila vilaa kwa Baba Mulungu Mulungu ndiye ariyeumba milangaza yosi ya ko dzulu mulunguni naye k'agaluka-galuka here kivurivuri kihendazho
God decided to give us life through the true message he sent to us He wanted us to be the most important of all that he created,Bai iye Mulungu wahuhendya huzhalwe lusha kukirira kwa ro neno ra ujeri ili kahi za zho zhumbezhe zhosi arizhoviumba be siswi fukale a kwandza
My dear brothers and sisters always be more willing to listen than to speak Keep control of your anger,Vikara manyani vivi ndugu zangu ahendzwi Mut'u asikale muharaka wa kunena kit'u ela naakale muharaka wa kusirikiza thu Pia mut'u asikale muharaka wa kutsukirwa
Anger does not help you live the way God wants,Mana mut'u wa vitsukizi k'adima kuishi maisha ga kimulungu here ahendzazho ye Mulungu mwenye
So get rid of everything evil in your livesevery kind of wrong you do Be humble and accept Gods teaching that is planted in your hearts This teaching can save you,Kwa vizho bai tokani na ukolo wosi na garyahu mazowera mai mugariche Riryahu neno ra Mulungu ambaro iye Mulungu warika kahi za mioyo yenu rikubalini kwa kudzitsereza Mana neno ra Mulungu ndiro ridimaro kumwakola ninwi
Do what Gods teaching says dont just listen and do nothing When you only sit and listen you are fooling yourselves,Musikale at'u a kusirikiza neno ra Mulungu thu na kuno k'amurithuwa Mukihenda vizho mundakala munadzikenga enye Ela hendani here ro neno ra Mulungu riambazho
Hearing Gods teaching and doing nothing is like looking at your face in the mirror,Mut'u asirikizaye neno ra Mulungu gonya akauka na gakwe be adzahalana na mut'u adzilolaye na kilolo
and doing nothing about what you saw You go away and immediately forget how bad you looked,Agonyaho kudzilola iye ni kuuka na kuthuwa shuhulize naye nikusahau kare zho adzizhodzona mo kiloloni
But when you look into Gods perfect law that sets people free pay attention to it If you do what it says you will have Gods blessing Never just listen to his teaching and forget what you heard,Ela mut'u ailolayet'o yo sheria ya Mulungu idimayo kuahenda at'u makakala huru na akale k'asirikiza gonya akauka na gakwe ela anasirikiza na kuithuwat'o bai mut'u iye andahaswa ni Mulungu kahi za kila kit'u andichohenda
You might think you are a very religious person But if your tongue is out of control you are fooling yourself Your careless talk makes your offerings to God worthless,Mut'u adziambaye kukala ana dini na kuno ko k'azulia kanwake kasinene mai mut'u iye anadzikenga na iyo diniye baha kihuhu
The worship that God wants is this caring for orphans or widows who need help and keeping yourself free from the worlds evil influence This is the kind of worship that God accepts as pure and good,Dini isiyo na kaila hedu nyenye yoyosi kwa Mulungu Baba ni ii Kuaviza ana k'iya na anaache magungu kahi za go mashaka gao Hiri ni kudziika kure na maut'u ga urumwengu
My dear brothers and sisters you are believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ So dont treat some people better than others,Ndugu zangu musikale at'u murio munamukuluhira Jesu Masihi ariye ni Bwana wehu wa nguma na kuno ko muna ubaguzi
Suppose someone comes into your meeting wearing very nice clothes and a gold ring At the same time a poor person comes in wearing old dirty clothes,Kwa mufano kuhende siku kudze at'u airi kahi za muthunganano wenu Mumwenga akale ni thajiri adzavala p'ehe za dhahabu na nguwo za gali jeri-jeri ye mungine ye akale ni masikini adzavala matharutharu
You show special attention to the person wearing nice clothes You say Sit here in this good seat But you say to the poor person Stand there or Sit on the floor by our feet,Vikara muive-ive na yuyahu adziyevalat'o mumwihe mukamup'e kihi kidzo Ye masikini ye mumwambe We be si baha ukaima kare haho hedu mumwambe keresi kare ho ts'i we
Doesnt this show that you think some people are more important than others You set yourselves up as judgesjudges who make bad decisions,Bai mukihenda vizho mundakala mudzaagazha kare o at'u kwa kuabagua na mundakala mu majaji enye malengo mai
Listen my dear brothers and sisters God chose the poor people in the world to be rich in faith He chose them to receive the kingdom God promised to those who love him,Sirikizani bai ndugu zangu ahendzwi Mulungu waatsagula aryahu at'u mario manaonewa kukala ni masikini haha dhuniani makale mathajiri kahi za kukuluhira Kidza waatsagula ili mangire kahi za uryahu uthawaliwe ariwoulaga kwa aryahu mamuhendzao
But you show no respect to those who are poor And you know that the rich are the ones who always try to control your lives And they are the ones who take you to court,Ela nwi vivi munaadharau masikini H'aya samba o mathajiri ndio mamukeresizao mino Zho mbai samba o ndio mamusukumao kotini
And the rich are the ones who insult the wonderful name of Christ the name by which you are known,Ao vizho ndo mario mananena kufuru dzulu za riryahu dzina ra ishima ririro munaihirwa
One law rules over all other laws This royal law is found in the Scriptures Love your neighborthe same as you love yourselfIf you obey this law you are doing right,Bai mukiithuwa ii sheria bomu iriyo kahi za Maoro iambayo Muhendze mwandziyo here udzihendzazho mwenye mundakala munahenda kit'u kiricho ni karakara
But if you are treating one person as more important than another you are sinning You are guilty of breaking Gods law,Ela chamba mundabaguana h'aya be mumanye munahenda dambi na yo sheria idzamugwira na makosa
You might follow all of Gods law But if you fail to obey only one command you are guilty of breaking all the commands in that law,Mut'u hatha akabanda sheria mwenga yenye kidza yu karakara na mut'u adziyezibanda zosi
God said Dont commit adulteryThe same God also said Dont killSo if you dont commit adultery but you kill someone you are guilty of breaking all of Gods law,Mana iye ariyeamba Usizinge ndiye ariyeamba Usalage Vikara kwa mufano ukale k'uzinga ela ko unalaga at'u undakala u mut'u uriye unabanda sheria
You will be judged by the law that makes people free You should remember this in everything you say and do,Chamba munanena hedu munahenda ut'u vihendeni kuno mukimanya kukala iryahu sheria ilazhayo uhuru ndo indiyomuhukumu
Yes you must show mercy to others If you do not show mercy then God will not show mercy to you when he judges you But the one who shows mercy can stand without fear before the Judge,Kwani yuyahu mut'u asiye mbazi na mut'u iye naye andahukumiwa hasiho kuonerwa mbazi Bai mbazi na hukumu kishindacho mwandziwe ni mbazi
My brothers and sisters if a person claims to have faith but does nothing that faith is worth nothing Faith like that cannot save anyone,Vikara ndugu zangu mut'u akidziamba anamukuluhira Mulungu ela k'aahendera at'u mahendo madzo ro kuluhirore k'arifwaha kit'u Kwani zho kare vinadima kumwakola zho
Suppose a brother or sister in Christ comes to you in need of clothes or something to eat,Kwa mufano hakale hana ndugu ariye ana wira wa nguwo na hatha chakurya chenye kwakwe ni cha thabu-thabu
And you say to them God be with you I hope you stay warm and get plenty to eat but you dont give them the things they need If you dont help them your words are worthless,Mut'u ye k'andamwaviza bule hatha athuwe kumuricha vizho ahende kumwamba Mut'u uwe be enda na dheri kavale nguwo za p'eho na urye tha wakuhe H'aya vikara zho be vina mana yani
It is the same with faith If it is just faith and nothing moreif it doesnt do anythingit is dead,Kwa vizho mut'u adziambaye anamukuluhira Mulungu ela ko k'ana rorosi ridzo ahenderaro mut'u kuluhirore k'arifwaha kit'u
But someone might argue Some people have faith and others have good works My answer would be that you cant show me your faith if you dont do anything But I will show you my faith by the good I do,Ela mungine ye anadima kuamba Uwe una kuluhiro mino mi nina mahendo madzo K'avina ut'u Nanyesa viryahu udimazho kumukuluhira Mulungu bila mahendo madzo nami nindakwanyesa viryahu nirizho ninamukuluhira Mulungu kwa mahendo gangu madzo
You believe there is one God Thats good but even the demons believe that And they shake with fear,Unaamba kukala unaamini kuna Mulungu mumwenga thu ni karakara ela o p'ep'o nao manaviamini vizho na si kuviamini thu ao hatha nikuthethema kamare
You fool Faith that does nothing is worth nothing Do you want me to prove this to you,H'aya we ndiya amba unamala kwanyeswa kukala kumukuluhira Mulungu hasiho vihendo ni karakara na kihuhu Ngoja nikwanyese
Our father Abraham was made right with God by what he did He offered his son Isaac to God on the altar,Mukare wehu Burahemu k'akathalirwe kukala ni muhachi ni Mulungu kala si zho zha kukala wamuhala Isaka mwanawe na akimulaza dzulu za kijaja amwamboze here sadaka
So you see that Abrahams faith and what he did worked together His faith was made perfect by what he did,Bai fukimulola yuyu Burahemu funaona kukala mahendoge na kuluhirore zhosi zhere vi hamwenga Kwa ut'u wa vizho arizhohenda kuko kukuluhirakwe kukikamilika
This shows the full meaning of the Scriptures that say Abraham believed God and because of this faith he was accepted as one who is right with GodAbraham was called Gods friend,Garyahu Maoro gaambago Burahemu wamukuluhira Mulungu na kwa ut'u uwo Mulungu akimuhendya muhachi gakithimira Bai Burahemu akiifwa musena wa Mulungu
So you see that people are made right with God by what they do They cannot be made right by faith alone,Munaona vikara mut'u athalwa muhachi kwa garyahu ahendago si kumukuluhira Mulungu thu h'akeye
Another example is Rahab She was a prostitute but she was made right with God by something she did She helped those who were spying for Gods people She welcomed them into her home and helped them escape by a different road,Mufano mungine ni uryahu wa Rahabu Rahabu were ni malaya ela akithalwa kukala ni muhachi kwa kukala waap'a ndazi aryahu apelelezi a Kiyahudi badaye akiagwiza ngira nyingine yenye
A persons body that does not have a spirit is dead It is the same with faithfaith that does nothing is dead,Bai mwiri wa mut'u hasiho roho ni kukala udzafwa na vizho pia kuluhiro ra mut'u chamba k'arina mahendo madzo nikukala ridzafwa
My brothers and sisters not many of you should be teachers I say this because as you know we who teach will be judged more strictly than others,Ndugu zangu alimu k'amavirya kukala anji bule mana wakathi Mulungu andihokala anahukumu at'u iyo hukumu ya siswi alimu indakala k'ali kuriko ya at'u angine
We all make many mistakes A person who never said anything wrong would be perfect Someone like that would be able to control their whole body too,K'akuna mut'u ariye iye k'adima kuhenda kosa Mut'u ariye chamba ananena k'adima kuhereza ludhimi na akanena kosa be mut'u iye a kamili na anadima kudzizulia na chochosi
We put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us With these bits we can control their whole body,Chamba funahendza farasi athuwe zho fuhendzazho nifumufunge chuma ko kwa kanwa naye funadima kumugaluza kuku na kuku here fuhendzazho
It is the same with ships A ship is very big and it is pushed by strong winds But a very small rudder controls that big ship And the one who controls the rudder decides where the ship will go It goes where he wants it to go,H'aya mufano mungine ni wa zhombo zha madzini Zhombo zha madzini ni vibomu sana na nikuhirikwa ni lupeho lukali Ela chamba ye dhereva anahendza chende upande fulani nikuhumira kasukani kathithe kenye na kikenda kuko ahendzako chende
It is the same with our tongue It is a small part of the body but it can boast about doing great things,Vikara vizho ndizho virizho lo ludhimi Ludhimi ni kalungo kathithe sana ukihalanisha na wo mwiri wosi wa mudamu ela bai lunadzionya na maut'u manji ga kwangalaza Lola kamare ts'ets'e mwenga yenye ya moho be inadima kugwiza ts'andzala bomu na ikaocha tsaka zima
The tongue is like a fire It is a world of evil among the parts of our body It spreads its evil through our whole body and starts a fire that influences all of life It gets this fire from hell,Bai lo ludhimi nalo ni here ts'ets'e ya moho lu thele maut'u manji mai na nikumuhendya mut'u akanongeka-nongeka kamare Ludhimi nikugwiza moho na kunonga-nonga maut'u manji ga mudamu Nalo lupata uwo moho uwo kula Jehanamu
Humans have control over every kind of wild animal bird reptile and fish and they have controlled all these things,Nyama osini hariho a tsakani a kubururuka a kuhambala na makalao madzini nikufugwa ni mudamu
But no one can control the tongue It is wild and evil full of deadly poison,Ela k'akuna mudamu adimaye kulugwira ludhimi na kulufuga Lu thele uthiriri usiwodimikika Kidza lu thele shumu ya kwalaga
We use our tongues to praise our Lord and Father but then we curse people who were created in Gods likeness,Wakathi chamba funamulika Mulungu ariye ni Bwana wehu na ni Babiyehu nikuhenda vizho kwa kuhumira ludhimi Wakathi chamba funaalomberera at'u mai at'u marioumbwa kwa muhalano wa ye Mulungu mwenye nikukala funahumira lo ludhimi vizho
These praises and curses come from the same mouth My brothers and sisters this should not happen,H'aya ko kanwa kamwenga kanamboza maneno ga kumulika Mulungu na ga kulomberera at'u mai Ndugu zangu vizho sozho
Do good water and bad water flow from the same spring Of course not,Vidze dzitso rinadima kwamboza madzi ga p'eho na ga munyu jumula
My brothers and sisters can a fig tree make olives Or can a grapevine make figs No and a well full of salty water cannot give good water,Ndugu zangu vidze mutini nikuzhala zeituni Hedu hatha muzabibu kuzhala t'ini Zho mbai dzitso ra madzi ga munyu nikumboza madzi ga p'eho
Are there any among you who are really wise and understanding Then you should show your wisdom by living right You should do what is good with humility A wise person does not boast,Mut'u ariye kahi zenu anadziamba kukala ni mulachu na anaelewa maut'u manji bai vizho adziambazho na vithuwane na maishage madzo ga ishima Ni ahende mahendo madzo kwa kuhumira ulachu wa kimulungu hasiho kudzionya
If you are selfish and have bitter jealousy in your hearts you have no reason to boast Your boasting is a lie that hides the truth,Ela chamba mu thele dzitso na munadzihendza ninwi enye kare be musidzilike bule na mukakenga at'u na wo ujeri k'amuuthuwa
That kind of wisdom does not come from God That wisdom comes from the world It is not spiritual It is from the devil,Ulachu wa samupuli iyo si wa Mulungu ela ni wa kidhunia U kishethani na k'aukiroho bule
Where there is jealousy and selfishness there will be confusion and every kind of evil,Mana hat'u hohosi hariho at'u manaonerana kidzitso na manadzihendza o enye kare bai k'ahakosa h'uwoh'uwo na kila samupuli ya uthiriri
But the wisdom that comes from God is like this First it is pure It is also peaceful gentle and easy to please This wisdom is always ready to help people who have trouble and to do good for others This wisdom is always fair and honest,Ela uryahu ulachu wa Mulungu k'auna kaila kokosi na unareha dheri Ulachu uwo nikuhenda at'u makahenda mbazi na andziyao na makakala ap'eho na mambirikao Uwo vizho ni kuhenda at'u makahenda mahendo madzo bila kubaguana hedu kudzihendesha
People who work for peace in a peaceful way get the blessings that come from right living,At'u mario ni kugwizanya at'u madziokosana be ni here mario manalaya mbeyu za dheri mana ao nao mandavuna hachi
Do you know where your fights and arguments come from They come from the selfish desires that make war inside you,Bai ni kit'u chani kino kitumacho hatha munanenezana na kugwadulana-gwadulana H'aya kit'u kirehacho maut'u gago ni kiki Ninwi kahi za mioyo yenu munavufwa kuno na kuno ni th'amaa mbii zidzizomwadzala
You want things but you dont get them So you kill and are jealous of others But you still cannot get what you want So you argue and fight You dont get what you want because you dont ask God,Munathamani vit'u na k'amuvipata ndosa munalagana Munamizira mahe vit'ungwa ela k'amuvipata ndosa munagwaga k'ondo na kuheha Chausa kitumacho hatha k'amuna murizho ni kwamba k'amumuvoya Mulungu zho vit'u vizho
Or when you ask you dont receive anything because the reason you ask is wrong You only want to use it for your own pleasure,Na hatha mumuvoyaho Mulungu k'amupata kit'u mana ninwi chamba munavoya nikukala mudzapanga kare mukipata zho vit'u mundavihumira kudzifwahiza enye
You people are not faithful to God You should know that loving what the world has is the same as hating God So anyone who wants to be friends with this evil world becomes Gods enemy,Ii hatha mu here azindzi t'i Vino be k'amumanya kukala mukiugwira usena wo urumwengu mundakala mahadhui a Mulungu Mut'u yoyosi augwiraye usena uu urumwengu kwa kuthuwa maut'uge k'adima kukala musena wa Mulungu
Do you think the Scriptures mean nothing The Scriptures say The Spirit God made to live in us wants us only for himself,Samba munamanya kamare kukala Maoro gananena ujeri Maoro ganaamba kukala Iye Roho wa Mulungu ariye ndani mwehu ana wivu k'endzi mut'u mungine akale mo moyoni bule
But the kindness God shows is greater As the Scripture says God is against the proud but he is kind to the humble,Ela bai Mulungu nikuhuonera mbazi sana ndosa Maoro ganaamba
So give yourselves to God Stand against the devil and he will run away from you,Kwa vizho bai dzitserezeni kwa Mulungu Mupingeni Shethani naye andachimbira
Come near to God and he will come near to you You are sinners so clean sin out of your livesYou are trying to follow God and the world at the same time Make your thinking pure,Musongerereni hehi Mulungu naye andamusongerera hehi Nwi enye dambi h'aya gatsuseni maisha genu Nwi murio muna mioyo miri-miri h'aya itsuseni mioyo yenu mudime kuthuwa umwenga
Be sad be sorry and cry Change your laughter into crying Change your joy into sadness,Shikithikani na murire Musipige kw'akw'a bule ela rirani Yo raha yenu naigaluke mukale na kigondzi
Be humble before the Lord and he will make you great,Dzitserezeni kwa Bwana Mulungu naye andamwanula
Brothers and sisters dont say anything against each other If you criticize your brother or sister in Christ or judge them you are criticizing and judging the law they follow And when you are judging the law you are not a follower of the law You have become a judge,Ndugu zangu musinenane bule Kwani mut'u amunenaye vii mwandziwe hedu hatha kumwamboza makosa be nikukala anainena vii yo sheria na kuyomboza makosa Nawe chamba yo sheria unayomboza makosa h'aya be kuithuwa bule unayomboza makosa
God is the one who gave us the law and he is the Judge He is the only one who can save and destroy So it is not right for you to judge anyone,Alazhaye sheria ni mumwenga thu naye ni Mulungu Iye nde ariye anadima kuhukumu Mulungu nde adimaye kumwakola mut'u hedu kumwanonga-nonga kare na kare H'aya we mudamu u h'ani hatha umuhukumu mwandziyo
Some of you say Today or tomorrow we will go to some city We will stay there a year do business and make money Listen think about this,Vikara sirikizani ninwi at'u murio mudzazowera kuamba Vivi rero hedu machero fundauka fwende safari hatha mudzi fulani Kuko fundakukala mwaka muzima kuhenda biashara ya kwangiza p'esa
You dont know what will happen tomorrow Your life is like a fog You can see it for a short time but then it goes away,Vidze munamanya machero mundalamuka azima Ninwi mu here kunje thu Kunje ni kugit'ana kwa muda gonya ukahenda kuona ridzangamika kare
So you should say If the Lord wants we will live and do this or that,K'amuona h'e karakara mungaamba vivi Mulungu ahendzaho chamba fu azima fundahenda vivi na vivi
But now you are proud and boast about yourself All such boasting is wrong,Ela ninwi so muhendazho hat'uhe munadzihendya kumanya sana Kudzionya kuku bai ni kui
If you fail to do what you know is right you are sinning,Mut'u yoyosi amanyaye riro ridzo aviryaro kuhenda gonya ko k'andarihenda nikukala anahenda dambi
You rich people listen Cry and be very sad because much trouble will come to you,Vikara ninwi mathajiri rirani kisha rirani sana mana gago gandigomupata gago k'agana mwandziwe bule
Your riches will rot and be worth nothing Your clothes will be eaten by moths,Wo uthajiri wenu be kala k'amumanya udzaola na zo nguwo zenu zagonya kuriwa ni lutswa
Your gold and silver will rust and that rust will be a proof that you were wrong That rust will eat your bodies like fire You saved your treasure in the last days,Yo dhahabu yenu na yo fedha yenu zhosi vina k'anga K'anga iyo ndo indiyokala here ushahidhi na irye yo miri yenu kila hat'u dza here moho udimazho kuocha At'u ninwi mwadziikira uthajiri munji siku zizi za mwisho

You showed no mercy to good people They were not against you but you killed them,Mwahala at'u ahachi mukiapiga ulongo mukiakot'a at'u mario were k'amana mukotse wa kudzihehera kamare
Brothers and sisters be patient the Lord will come So be patient until that time Look at the farmers They have to be patient They have to wait for their valuable crop to grow and produce a harvest They wait patiently for the first rain and the last rain,Bai ndugu zangu endererani kuvumirira muhaka Bwana andihouya Wakathi mut'u alayaho vit'u mundani mwakwe nikuvumirira muhaka vula indihonya Kidza nikuenderera kuvumirira muhaka ho mimeraye indihozhalira

And we say that those who accepted their troubles with patience now have Gods blessing You have heard about Jobs patienceYou know that after all his troubles the Lord helped him This shows that the Lord is full of mercy and is kind,Na lolani at'u aa be funaamba Mulungu waahasa kwa kukala mavumirira Garyahu garigomupata Ayubu ninwi munagamanya na hatha munamanya viryahu arizhovumirira na mwishowe Bwana Mulungu akimuhasa zhomu zhenye Bai Bwana Mulungu wahenda vivi kwa kukala ana mbazi na ana moyo mudzo sana
My brothers and sisters it is very important that you not use an oath when you make a promise Dont use the name of heaven earth or anything else to prove what you say When you mean yes say only yes When you mean no say only no Do this so that you will not be judged guilty,Vikara zaidhi ya gosi nidzigonena ndugu zangu namala niambe vivi musiape bule K'ahana cha mut'u kudziapira kwa kuhadza mulunguni hedu hatha kwa kuhadza ts'i hedu kit'u kingine chochosi Chamba ndozho amba Ndozho chamba sozho amba Sozho ili musidze mukahukumiwa ni Mulungu

If such a prayer is offered in faith it will heal anyone who is sick The Lord will heal them And if they have sinned he will forgive them,Bai go mavoyo gandigovoywa kwa kukukuluhira gandamuhoza ye mukongo Na Bwana Mulungu andamwangiza matsiya kaheri na chamba wahenda dambi h'aya dambi ziryahu zindasamehewa
So always tell each other the wrong things you have done Then pray for each other Do this so that God can heal you Anyone who lives the way God wants can pray and great things will happen,Kwa vizho bai chamba mut'u udzahenda dambi mwambire mwandziyo ili muvoye hamwenga na uhozwe Mana mavoyo ga mut'u ariye ni muhachi mbere za Mulungu be gana nguvu sana na nikuhenda mabomu
Elijah was a person just like us He prayed that it would not rain And it did not rain on the land for three and a half years,Halirani mufano wa nabii Elija Elija were ni mut'u thu dza siswi ela bai wavoya kwa chadi akiamba kusinye vula na vikikala vizho zhenye Vula k'ainyire kwa muda wa miaka mihahu na nusu

Greetings from Peter an apostle of Jesus Christ,Mimi P'et'ero muhumwi wa Jesu Masihi ninandhika baruwa ii kwa ninwi at'u muriotsagulwa ni Mulungu na murio munatoa kure na midzi yenu yenye muriombola kwenu na mukitsamira majimbo ga P'onito na Galatia na Kapadokia na Asia na Bith'inia
God planned long ago to choose you and to make you his holy people which is the Spirits work God wanted you to obey him and to be made clean by the blood sacrificeof Jesus Christ,Lolani Mulungu Baba wamutsagula here arizhokala wapanga kare hangu kapindi na mukihendywa aeri kwa Rohowe ili mumwagohe ye Jesu Masihi na muusizwe dambi zenu kukirira kwa yo milatsoye Bai Mulungu naamuhase zhomu na amuhende mukale na dheri
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ God has great mercy and because of his mercy he gave us a new life This new life brings us a living hope through Jesus Christs resurrection from death,Nahulazhe muvera kwa Mulungu babaye Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi kwa ut'u wa mbazize nyinji Bai nahumulazhire muvera kwani kukirira kwa zizo mbazize wahugera maisha masha kwa kumufufula Jesu Masihi kula kifwani Na vivi ndo vihuhendyazho hukale na th'amaa kukala Mulungu andahuhasa
Now we wait to receive the blessings God has for his children These blessings are kept for you in heaven They cannot be ruined or be destroyed or lose their beauty,Kidza Mulungu adzamuikirat'o ninwi at'ue iyo zawadi bomu kuko mulunguni kuriko k'aidima kuola hedu kunongeka na kidza k'aidima kukwajuka bule
Gods power protects you through your faith and it keeps you safe until your salvation comes That salvation is ready to be given to you at the end of time,Bai kukirira na kuluhiro ninwi munarindwa ni nguvu za Mulungu muhadhi wokolwi wenu undihoikwa lwazu kwenu haho siku ya mwisho
I know the thought of that is exciting even if you must suffer through different kinds of troubles for a short time now,Bai fwahirwani zhomu kwa ut'u uu vingahokala kwa muda mufuti suthi mukirane na samupuli nyinji za mashaka ut'u ambawo be unamwangiza kigondzi
These troubles test your faith and prove that it is pure And such faith is worth more than gold Gold can be proved to be pure by fire but gold will ruin When your faith is proven to be pure the result will be praise and glory and honor when Jesus Christ comes,Ela mashaka gaga ganadza ili garipime kuluhiro renu kala ni ra ujeri hedu si ra ujeri Kwani here zho dhahabu ambayo ni kit'u kindichogomera haha urumwenguni igwazho mohoni ili ikalet'o kuluhiro renu ambaro rina kima kinji kuriko dhahabu suthi rijezwe naro ili ridime kukalat'o Gonya vivi Mulungu andamulika kidza amugere nguma na ishima siku iryahu andihouya Jesu Masihi
You have not seen Christ but still you love him You cant see him now but you believe in him You are filled with a wonderful and heavenly joy that cannot be explained,At'u ninwi munamuhendza Jesu vingahokala k'amudzangwe kumona Kidza munamukuluhira idzaho vivi kare k'amumona bule na kwa vizho muna raha zhomu hatha k'avineneka
Your faith has a goal and you are reaching that goalyour salvation,Nanwi muna fwahiro kwa kukala munahokera wokolwi wa maroho genu kwa kukuluhira kwenu
The prophets studied carefully and tried to learn about this salvation They spoke about the grace that was coming to you,Bai o manabii machunguza-chunguza na kumala-mala na makitabiri dzulu za wokolwi uu ambawo Mulungu angamup'a
The Spirit of Christ was in those prophets And the Spirit was telling about the sufferings that would happen to Christ and about the glory that would come after those sufferings The prophets tried to learn about what the Spirit was showing themwhen it would happen and what the world would be like at that time,Manabii ao were mana Roho wa Masihi ndani mwao ariyeambiriza viryahu Masihi andizhopata mashaka na viryahu andizhogerwa ishima bomu badaye Kwa vizho makijeza kumala-mala ili mamanye ni h'ani andekala ye Masihi na maut'u gano gandahendeka rini
It was made clear to them that their service was not for themselves They were serving you when they told about the things you have now heard You heard them from those who told you the Good News with the help of the Holy Spirit sent from heaven Even the angels would like very much to know more about these things you were told,K'uzhona zho Mulungu akiambira kukala adzaagunulira gago si kwa ut'u wao enye ela kwa ut'u wenu ninwi Na vikara gago marigonena ni gago garigonenwa ni aryahu mariomwambiriza wo Uvoro Udzo Uvoro uu udzo wanenwa kwenu kwa nguvu za Roho Mweri ariyelaa mulunguni Roho yuyahu wanena na ao mariomwambiriza ninwi wo Uvoro Udzo Na maut'u gaga ni maut'u ambago ni ga kwangalaza kwani hatha o malaika enye kidza managamizira mahe magamanye
So prepare your minds for service With complete selfcontrol put all your hope in the grace that will be yours when Jesus Christ comes,Kwa vizho kalani matso na thayari-thayari wakathi wosi Th'amaa yenu naikale dzulu za ko kuhaswa mundikohaswa haho andihouya ye Jesu Masihi
In the past you did not have the understanding you have now so you did the evil things you wanted to do But now you are children of God so you should obey him and not live the way you did before,Bai mwagoheni Mulungu dza here ahoho mario na lau marizho Musizithuwe th'amaa mbii murizokala mukizithuwa ho kapindi makathi murihokala k'amudzamumanya Mulungu
Be holy in everything you do just as God is holy He is the one who chose you,Ela hat'u ha vizho kalani aeri kahi za mitoere yenu here Mulungu ariyemwiha arizho mueri
In the Scriptures God says Be holy because I am holy,Kwani Maoro ganaamba Kwa kukala mimi Mulungu ni mueri bai ninwi nanwi kalani aeri
You pray to God and call him Father but he will judge everyone the same wayby what they do So while you are visiting here on earth you should live with respect for God,Mutoaho kahi za urumwengu uu dza here akizi a ngira be mwagoheni Mulungu Mana mumuvoyaho munamwiha Baba naye akigwira kuhukumu be k'apendhelea bule Kila mut'u ni kumuhukumu karakara na mahendoge
You know that in the past the way you were living was useless It was a way of life you learned from those who lived before you But you were saved from that way of living You were bought but not with things that ruin like gold or silver,Kwa kukala ninwi munamanya kukala k'amukombolerwe kula kwa mitoere isiyomana muriyoihokera kula kwa akare enu kwa kuhenda kurihirwa fedha hedu dhahabu ambazho ni vit'u vindizhogomera haha dhuniani
You were bought with the precious blood of Christs death He was a pure and perfect sacrificial Lamb,Ela mwakombolwa na milatso ya kima ya iye Masihi ambaye were ni here mwana wa ng'ondzi asiye na kaila hedu hatha kapalatha
Christ was chosen before the world was made but he was shown to the world in these last times for you,Masihi yuyu were watsagulwa ni Mulungu aakombole anadamu hangu urumwengu k'audzaumbwa ela akimanyiswa lwazu makathi gaga ga siku za mwisho kwa ut'u wenu
You believe in God through Christ God is the one who raised him from death and gave honor to him So your faith and your hope are in God,Kukirira na iye Masihi ninwi munamukuluhira Mulungu ariyemufufula Jesu kula kifwani kidza akimup'a nguma ili kuluhiro renu na th'amaa yenu vikale kahi za iye Mulungu
You have made yourselves pure by obeying the truth Now you can have true love for your brothers and sisters So love each other deeplywith all your heart,Kwa kuuthuwa wo ujeri wa Mulungu mioyo yenu yahendywa mieri na kwa vizho munahendzana t'ot'ot'o kindugu Ela kidza endererani kuhendzana zhomu zhenye na mioyo yenu yosi
You have been born again This new life did not come from something that dies It came from something that cannot die You were born again through Gods lifegiving message that lasts forever,Kwani ninwi mwazhalwa lusha na uzhazi uu si dza here uryahu wa m'ama na baba ambawo mut'u ni kuzhalwa gonya akauka urumwenguni ela ni uzhazi usiwonongeka Kwani mwazhalwa kukirira na neno ra Mulungu ririro moyo hatha kare na kare
The Scriptures say,Kwani
But the word of the Lord lasts forever,Ela neno ra Bwana rindakalako hatha kare na kare
So then stop doing anything to hurt others Dont lie anymore and stop trying to fool people Dont be jealous or say bad things about others,Kwa vizho bai dzithengeni na mai gosi na ulongo na kudzihendya na wivu na pia dziikeni kure na nyambo
Like newborn babies hungry for milk you should want the pure teaching that feeds your spirit With it you can grow up and be saved,Wakathi wosi kalani na hamu na neno ra Mulungu ririro k'arina kaila kokosi dza viryahu ana atsanga machereo doo marizho na hamu ya kuamwa mazia ga mamizao Mukihenda vizho mundakula kahi za wo wokolwi wenu
You have already tasted the goodness of the Lord,Mana here Maoro gaambazho Mudzauthatha udzo wa Bwana
The Lord Jesus is the living stoneThe people of the world decided that they did not want this stone But he is the one God chose as one of great value So come to him,H'aya bai ndzoni kwa Bwana iye ni here iwe ririro moyo na ririrokahalwa ni anadamu ela ririrotsagulwa ni Mulungu na akirona kukala rina mana zhomu
You also are like living stones and God is using you to build a spiritual houseYou are to serve God in this house as holy priests offering him spiritual sacrifices that he will accept because of Jesus Christ,Kwa vizho ninwi nanwi ndzoni dza here mawe garigo moyo na mudzamboze ili muhumirwe kuakira nyumba ya kiroho Kidza mulazhe sadaka za roho dza here alombi aeri kidza za kwahikizwa ni Mulungu kukirira kwa Jesu Masihi
The Scriptures say,Kwani Maoro ganaamba
So that stone brings honor for you who believe But for those who dont believe he is,Kwani ninwi murio munamukuluhira be iwe riro rina mana bomu kwenu Ela kwa ao ambao k'amamukuluhira
For them he is also,Na kidza Maoro mangine ganaamba vivi
But you are his chosen people the Kings priests You are a holy nation people who belong to God He chose you to tell about the wonderful things he has done He brought you out of the darkness of sin into his wonderful light,Ela ninwi mu at'u muriotsagulwa ni Mulungu alombi a Muthawali kidza mu lukolo lueri na mu at'u mario ni a Mulungu mwenye Mulungu wahenda vivi ili muutsamuse udzowe mana wamwiha ili mwambole kahi za kiza cha dambi na mwangire kahi za mulangazawe wa kwangalaza
In the past you were not a special people,Ho kapindi ninwi were k'amu at'u a Mulungu bule ela vino vikara mudzauya mu at'u a Mulungu Zhogo were k'amudzangwe kuonerwa mbazi ni mut'u ela vikara Mulungu adzamuonera mbazi
Dear friends you are like visitors and strangers in this world So I beg you to keep your lives free from the evil things you want to do those desires that fight against your true selves,Asena ninamuadha vivi Ninwi murizho akizi a ngira haha dhuniani na murio charoni h'aya dziikeni kure na th'amaa mbii za mwiri ambazo zinaheha na roho zenu
People who dont believe are living all around you They may say that you are doing wrong So live such good lives that they will see the good you do and they will give glory to God on the day he comes,Kalani na mwendo mudzo kahi za o at'u ambao k'amamukuluhira Jesu ili mamuryaho lwambo na kumwamba kukala mu ahendi a mai maone mahendo genu madzo na mamulike Mulungu kahi za siku ya kudzakwe
Be willing to serve the people who have authorityin this world Do this for the Lord Obey the king the highest authority,Gohani sheria zosi za ts'i kwani mukihenda vizho at'u mandamulika Bwana Mwagoheni ye muthawali wa ts'i ariye iye nde kitswa
And obey the leaders who are sent by the king They are sent to punish those who do wrong and to praise those who do good,na agoheni hatha maluwali ambao ni at'u mahumwao ni iye muthawali kuangiza akili ahendi a mai na kualika ahendi a madzo
When you do good you stop ignorant people from saying foolish things about you This is what God wants,Kwani ahendzazho Mulungu ni kwamba muanyamaze kwa mahendo genu madzo aryahu at'u azuzu mahendzao kuthala kudzinenera
Live like free people but dont use your freedom as an excuse to do evil Live as those who are serving God,Ishini here at'u mario huru ela hamwenga na vizho musiuhumire wo uhuru wenu kuhenda mai kisiri-siri ela kalani here atumwa a Mulungu
Show respect for all people Love your brothers and sisters in Gods family Respect God and honor the king,Aishimuni at'u osi kidza ahendzeni ndugu Mwagoheni Mulungu na mumwishimu muthawali
Slaves be willing to serve your masters Do this with all respect You should obey the masters who are good and kind and you should obey the masters who are bad,Na ninwi ahumiki nanwi dzitserezeni kwa mathajiri enu na muap'e ishima Hendani vivi kwa aryahu mathajiri osi aryahu ambao mana moyo mudzo kidza mana mbazi na hatha aryahu ambao ni akali na enye madumulo
One of you might have to suffer even when you have done nothing wrong If you think of God and bear the pain this pleases God,Kwani mut'u akipata thabu kwa ngira iriyo si ya hachi na akivumirira kwa kukala anamanya mahendzo ga Mulungu bai mut'u iye Mulungu andamuhasa
But if you are punished for doing wrong there is no reason to praise you for bearing that punishment But if you suffer for doing good and you are patient this pleases God,Mana vindafwahani mukivumirira kupigwa kwa ut'u wa kuhenda mai Ela mukipata thabu kwa kuhenda madzo kidza mukivumirira be Mulungu andafwahirwa nanwi
This is what you were chosen to do Christ gave you an example to follow He suffered for you So you should do the same as he did,Kwani vivi ndo murizhoihirwa kwani hatha Masihi mwenye wapata thabu kwa ut'u wenu na akimurichira mufano ili muthuwe nyayoze
He never sinned and he never told a lie,Iye ariye k'ahendere dambi hedu hatha kanwake kunena ulongo
People insulted him but he did not insult them back He suffered but he did not threaten anyone No he let God take care of him God is the one who judges rightly,ambaye arihosholerwa k'aaujizire masholo arihopata thabu k'agoshere mut'u ela akidzambozera kwa iye Mulungu ahukumuye kwa hachi
Christ carried our sins in his body on the cross He did this so that we would stop living for sin and live for what is right By his wounds you were healed,Na iye mwenye wafuusiza dambi zehu kwa kuteseka mwiriwe na kuhufwerera haryahu musalabani ili siswi husithawalwe ni dambi kaheri ela huishi kwa hachi Kwa vizho bai kukirira na marangage mwahozwa
You were like sheep that went the wrong way But now you have come back to the Shepherd and Protector of your lives,Kwani mwere mu dza here ng'ondzi zirizongamika ngira ela vikara mwauya kwa Jesu Masihi ariye nde murisa na muimirizi wa maroho genu
In the same way you wives should be willing to serve your husbands Then even those who have refused to accept Gods teaching will be persuaded to believe because of the way you live You will not need to say anything,Kahi za ngira iyo ninwi ache nanwi dzitserezeni kwa alume enu ili hakikala hana angine k'amakuluhira neno ra Mulungu madime kuvufwa ni t'abia ya ache ao Hatha vindakala k'avimala munene ut'u wowosi
Your husbands will see the pure lives that you live with respect for God,kwa kukala ao mandaona viryahu t'abia zenu zirizho eri na viryahu murizho na ishima
It is not fancy hair gold jewelry or fine clothes that should make you beautiful,Kudzipamba kwenu kusikale kuryahu kwa ndze kwa kudzitengeza-tengeza nyere na kuvala madhaa ga dhahabu na kudzivika nguwo mbidzo-mbidzo
No your beauty should come from inside youthe beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit That beauty will never disappear It is worth very much to God,Ela kalani at'u murio na mioyo midzo ap'eho na maso k'ondo na mut'u Maut'u gaga bai ndo kudzipamba na kudzipamba kuku ndo kwenye mana zaidhi mbere za Mulungu
It was the same with the holy women who lived long ago and followed God They made themselves beautiful in that same way They were willing to serve their husbands,Kwani o ache aeri ho kare nao ambao were mana th'amaa kukala Mulungu andaahasa bai vizho ndo marizhodzipamba na kudzitsereza kwa alume ao enye
I am talking about women like Sarah She obeyed Abraham her husband and called him her master And you women are true children of Sarah if you always do what is right and are not afraid,Dza here Sera arizhomusikira mulumewe Burahemu na kumwiha Bwana wangu vizho nanwi mukihenda maut'u madzo-madzo hasiho kukala na woga na ut'u wowosi mundakala anae a kiche
In the same way you husbands should live with your wives in an understanding way since they are weaker than you You should show them respect because God gives them the same blessing he gives youthe grace of true life Do this so that nothing will stop your prayers from being heard,Kahi za ngira iyo vizho ninwi alume nanwi ishini na ache enu kwa akili kwa kuap'a ishima kwa viryahu marizho k'amana nguvu kumukira ninwi kidza ao nao mandahokera hamwenga nanwi kigerwa cha Mulungu cha uzima wa kare na kare Vivi vihendeni ili mavoyo genu gakatsazizwa gapate kusikirwa ni Mulungu
So all of you should live together in peace Try to understand each other Love each other like brothers and sisters Be kind and humble,Mwisho namala niambe vivi kalani na maazo mamwenga enye kuonerana mbazi kidza enye kuhendzana here ndugu enye mioyo midzo na mukale at'u murio k'amudzionya
Dont do wrong to anyone to pay them back for doing wrong to you Or dont insult anyone to pay them back for insulting you But ask God to bless them Do this because you yourselves were chosen to receive a blessing,Musirihane rii kwa rii hedu kashozi kwa kashozi ela hat'u ha vizho voyeranani madzo kwa kukala ko kuhaswa ndo Mulungu arikomulaga wakathi arihomwokola
The Scriptures say,Kwani Maoro ganaamba
Stop doing what is wrong and do good,Iye naadzishalahuse na mai
The Lord watches over those who do what is right,Kwa kukala matso ga Mulungu ganaalola ahachi
If you are always trying to do good no one can really harm you,Bai ni h'ani andemuhendera ut'u uwi mukikala muna chadi cha kuhenda madzo
But you may suffer for doing right If that happens you have Gods blessing Dont be afraid of the people who make you suffer dont be worried,Ela hatha mukipata thabu kwa ut'u wa kuhenda hachi be muna baha ninwi Na kidza musigoshezhwe ni anadamu na musikale na wasiwasi
But keep the Lord Christ holy in your hearts Always be ready to answer everyone who asks you to explain about the hope you have,Mwagoheni Masihi here Bwana ariye ni mueri na kidza wakathi wowosi mukale thayari kumudzigidzya mut'u yoyosi amuzaye dzulu za yo th'amaa muriyo nayo kahi za Mulungu Hendani vivi kwa up'ore na ishima
But answer them in a gentle way with respect Keep your conscience clear Then people will see the good way you live as followers of Christ and those who say bad things about you will be ashamed of what they said,Kalani na dhamiri mbidzo ili ao mamuryao lwambo na kunena mai dzulu za maisha genu madzo kahi za Masihi magwirwe ni haya
It is better to suffer for doing good than for doing wrong Yes it is better if that is what God wants,Kwa kukala baha kupata thabu kwa kuhenda madzo kala ni mahendzo ga Mulungu kuriko kupata thabu kwa kuhenda mai
Christ himself suffered when he died for you,Kwani Masihi mwenye wateswa na akifwa lumwenga kwa ut'u wa dambi zehu na vikikala ni basi Iye were ni mut'u muhachi ela akifwa kwa ut'u wa o masio hachi wahenda vivi ili ahurehe kwa Mulungu Iye walagwa uu mwiri uu ela kidza akihendywa moyo ni Roho
And by the Spirit he went and preached to the spirits in prison,Kukirira na iye Roho achendazitsemberera roho ambazo were zafungwa ko kuzimu na akizihubiri
Those were the spirits who refused to obey God long ago in the time of Noah God was waiting patiently for people while Noah was building the big boat And only a feweight in allwere saved in the boat through the floodwater,Zizi were ni ziryahu roho za at'u a ho kapindi wakathi wa Nuhu mario makahala kumusikira Mulungu Idzaho Mulungu waavumirira arihokala Nuhu anajenga safina ela kidza ni at'u anane h'akeye ndo marothizhwa na wo muretho wa kitai mo safinani
And that water is like baptism which now saves you Baptism is not the washing of dirt from the body It is asking God for a clean conscience It saves you because Jesus Christ was raised from death,Ut'u uu were ni muhalano wa kubat'izwa ambako vikara ndo kumwakolako Uu ubat'izo si kwa ut'u wa kuzogesa nongo za mwirini ela ni kilagane kiikwacho kwa Mulungu kula kahi za dhamiri mbidzo Uu ubat'izo unamwokola kukirira na ufufulo wa Jesu Masihi
Now he has gone into heaven He is at Gods right side and rules over angels authorities and powers,Iye Jesu Masihi wakwenda mulunguni na kidza akelesi mukono wa kurya wa Mulungu Malaika osi na wadimi na nguvu zhosi vi ts'inize
Christ suffered while he was in his body So you should strengthen yourselves with the same kind of thinking Christ had The one who accepts suffering in this life has clearly decided to stop sinning,Bai kwa kukala Masihi wateseka mwiriwe kwa ut'u wehu h'aya ninwi nanwi kalani thayari kuteseka dza iye Mana mut'u asirimaye ni kukala adzaricha kuhenda dambi
Strengthen yourselves so that you will live your lives here on earth doing what God wants not the evil things that people want to do,Kwa vizho musihumire wakathi wa kuishi kwenu usereo kuhenda maut'u mai gahendzwago ni mwiri ela uhumireni wakathi uwo kwa kuhenda garyahu Mulungu ahendzago
In the past you wasted too much time doing what those who dont know God like to do You were living immoral lives doing the evil things you wanted to do You were always getting drunk having wild drinking parties and doing shameful things in your worship of idols,Uwo wakathi mudziouhumira kuhenda mahendo mai gahendwago ni at'u masiomumanya Mulungu unathosha kwani mwagahumira maisha genu kahi za ukolo th'amaa mbii na urevi na sherehe za kuhenda maitsi-maitsi na kuhenda ut'u usohendwa ambawo ni kuvoya vizuka
Now those friends think it is strange that you no longer join them in all the wild and wasteful things they do And so they say bad things about you,Vino vikara ao masiomumanya Mulungu manangalala kuona kukala k'amu malo nao kaheri kahi za kuhenda mathuruthuru gago na kwa ut'u uu manamuhukana-hukana
But they will have to face God to explain what they have done He is the one who will soon judge everyonethose who are still living and those who have died,Ela ao mandamboza hesabu dzulu ya maisha gago kwa Mulungu ambaye a thayari kuhukumu at'u mario moyo na mariofwa
Some were told the Good News before they died They were criticized by others in their life here on earth But it was Gods plan that they hear the Good News so that they could have a new life through the Spirit,Ndosa wo Uvoro Udzo ukiambirizwa hatha at'u mariofwa ili idzaho mahukumiwa kare marihokala haha urumwenguni here kila mut'u ahendwazho zo roho zao zikale hamwenga na Mulungu na zikale moyo dza iye Mulungu arizho
The time is near when all things will end So keep your minds clear and control yourselves This will help you in your prayers,Musindikizo wa maut'u gosi u hehi kwa vizho suthi mukale matso na kidza at'u a kudzunya ili mudime kuvoya
Most important of all love each other deeply because love makes you willing to forgive many sins,Na kit'u cha mana kukira zhosi ni kiki hendzanani zhomu kwa kukala mut'u umuhendzaye hatha akakukosera kidza undamusamehe
Open your homes to each other and share your food without complaining,Kalani at'u a kukaribisha ajeni kahi za midzi yenu hasiho kunung'unika
God has shown you his grace in many different ways So be good servants and use whatever gift he has given you in a way that will best serve each other,Kila mumwenga wenu ana kigerwa arichogerwa ni Mulungu kwa vizho suthi akihumire kigerwa kicho kwa ut'u wa andziye mut'u akihenda vizho andakala anakitsundzat'o cho kigerwa cha Mulungu
If your gift is speaking your words should be like words from God If your gift is serving you should serve with the strength that God gives Then it is God who will be praised in everything through Jesus Christ Power and glory belong to him forever and ever Amen,Yoyosi ahubiriye bai suthi ahubiri maneno ga Mulungu na ariye na kigerwa cha kuhumikira angine suthi aahumikire kwa nguvu ambazo Mulungu anamugera ili kahi za maut'u gosi Mulungu adime kulikwa kukirira na Jesu Masihi ariye nguma na wadimi vi kwakwe hatha kare na kare H'aami
My friends dont be surprised at the painful things that you are now suffering which are testing your faith Dont think that something strange is happening to you,Asena musangalazwe ni zo thabu za kwakaka zimusirinyazo Gaga ganadza ili garijeze ro kuluhiro renu Musigahalire maut'u gaga kukala be ni majeni
But you should be happy that you are sharing in Christs sufferings You will be happy and full of joy when Christ shows his glory,Ela kalani na raha kwa kukala ninwi nanwi munapata muthalo kahi za go mashaka ga Masihi Vivi vinakala ili mukale na raha zhomu haho ngumaye indihogunulwa
When people say bad things to you because you follow Christ consider it a blessing When that happens it shows that Gods Spirit the Spirit of glory is with you,Baha ninwi mukisholerwa kwa ut'u wa dzina ra Masihi kwa kukala vivi vinanyesa kukala Roho wa nguma yani Roho wa Mulungu a hamwenga nanwi
You may suffer but dont let it be because you murder steal make trouble or try to control other peoples lives,Mut'u yoyosi kahi yenu akipata thabu be visikale anapata thabu kwa kukala ni mwalagi hedu ni mwivi hedu ni muhendi wa mai hedu kungirira maut'u ga kwa ani at'u
But if you suffer because you are a Christfollower dont be ashamed You should praise God for that name,Ela mut'u yoyosi akisirima kwa kukala ni Mumasihia be hatha asizhone kukala ni aebu ela hat'u ha vizho ni amulazhire muvera Mulungu kwa kukala ana dzina ra Masihi
It is time for judging to begin That judging will begin with Gods family If it begins with us then what will happen to those who dont accept the Good News of God,Kwani wakathi wa Mulungu kuhukumu at'u udzafika na ni suthi hukumu iandze na o at'u a Mulungu mwenye Bai kala yo hukumu indaandza na siswi vidze vindakaladze kwa ao masioukuluhira wo Uvoro Udzo kula kwa Mulungu
So if God wants you to suffer you should trust your lives to him He is the one who made you and you can trust him So continue to do good,Kwa vizho bai ao masirimao kwa mahendzo ga Mulungu suthi mamutegemee kamare ye muumbi wao mana siku zosi iye k'abanda kilaganeche
Now I have something to say to the elders in your group I am also an elder I myself have seen Christs sufferings And I will share in the glory that will be shown to us I beg you to,Vikara ninaavoya azee enu a kanisa mimi muzee mwandzi wao kidza ni shudhia wa mateso ga Masihi kidza ni mut'u ambaye nami nindapata muthalo wa yo nguma haho indihogunulwa
take care of the group of people you are responsible for They are Gods flockWatch over that flock because you want to not because you are forced to do it That is how God wants it Do it because you are happy to serve not because you want money,Ninwi athumia kalani here arisa a badhi ra Mulungu ririro mikononi mwenu Musiritsundze kwa kuhenda kugwirwa k'ogo ela ritsundzeni kwa kuhendza enye here Mulungu ahendzazho Musihende vivi kwa ut'u wa th'amaa ya p'esa ela kalani na moyo wa uhumiki
Dont be like a ruler over those you are responsible for But be good examples to them,Musikale athawali dzulu za ao madzioikwa ts'ini za mitsundzu yenu ela maisha genu nagakale mufano mudzo kwao
Then when Christ the Ruling Shepherd comes you will get a crownone that will be glorious and never lose its beauty,Bai mukihenda vizho Masihi ariye nde murisa mubomu andihokudza mundagerwa zawadi bomu ya nguma na yo ngumaye k'aindagoma bule
Young people I have something to say to you too You should accept the authority of the elders You should all have a humble attitude in dealing with each other,Nanwi vijana nanwi kahi za ngira iyo vizho asikireni azee Amasihia nyosini kalani at'u musiodzionya ili muhumikirane mana Maoro ganaamba
So be humble under Gods powerful hand Then he will lift you up when the right time comes,Kwa vizho dzitserezeni mbere za nguvu za Mulungu naye andamwanula kahi za wakathi ufwahao
Give all your worries to him because he cares for you,Murichireni Mulungu shidha za kwenu zosi kwa kukala iye nde amutsundzaye
Control yourselves and be careful The devil is your enemy and he goes around like a roaring lion looking for someone to attack and eat,Bai kalani matso na kidza mukale ch'onjo kwa kukala ye hadhui wenu Shethani be anadengereka kuno na kuno here simba arurumaye kumala mut'u amutharure-tharure
Refuse to follow the devil Stand strong in your faith You know that your brothers and sisters all over the world are having the same sufferings that you have,Bai mupingeni kwa kukala imara kahi za kuluhiro renu mukimanya kukala mateso gago genye ganahenderwa ndugu zenu kahi za urumwengu muzima
Yes you will suffer for a short time But after that God will make everything right He will make you strong He will support you and keep you from falling He is the God who gives all grace He chose you to share in his glory in Christ That glory will continue forever,Ela ninwi bada ya kupata mateso kwa muda muchache ye Mulungu ahup'aye nema nyinji ambaye nde ariyemwihira ngumaye hatha kare na kare kahi za Masihi iye mwenye andamuhendya mukale hasiho kaila kidza amuhende mukale nju-nju-nju andamwangiza nguvu na kumuunya
All power is his forever Amen,Iye wadimi ni wakwe hatha kare na kare H'aami
Silas will bring this letter to you I know that he is a faithful brother in Christ I wrote this short letter to encourage you I wanted to tell you that this is the true grace of God Stand strong in that grace,Silasi wanaviza kumuorera ii baruwa futi iye ni here ndugu yangu nidziyemukuluhira Nami naiora nimugere moyo kidza nimboze ushuhuda wangu kwamba ii ndo nema ya jeri ya Mulungu Kwa vizho imani nju kahi za nema iyo
The church in Babylonsends you greetings They were chosen just as you were Mark my son in Christ also sends his greetings,Mudzalamuswa ni andziyenu a kanisa ra Babiloniambao pia Mulungu waatsagula hatha mwanangu Marikonaye adzamulamusa
Give each other a special greetingof love when you meet,Bai lamusanani kwa kudonerana kahi za mahendzo Kalani na dheri ninwi nyosini murio a Masihi
Greetings from Simon Peter a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ,Mimi Simoni P'et'ero muhumiki na muhumwi wa Jesu Masihi ninandhika baruwa ii kwenu ninwi ndugu muriomukuluhira Jesu Masihi dza zho furizhomukuluhira siswi ahumwi Kwa kukala munamukuluhira Jesu bai Mulungu wamuhasa zhomu dza siswi na vivi zhakala kwa kukala ye Jesu ariye ni Mulungu wehu na ni mwokoli wehu ni muhachi
Grace and peace be given to you more and more because now you know God and Jesus our Lord,Bai Mulungu naamuhase zhomu na amuhendye mukale na dheri kwa kukala munamumanya iye na Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi
Jesus has the power of God And his power has given us everything we need to live a life devoted to God We have these things because we know him Jesus chose us by his glory and goodness,Kwa kukala funamumanya Jesu nguvu za Mulungu zirizo ndani mwakwe zahup'a kila kit'u kindichofwaviza kuishi maisha ga kumufwahiza Mulungu Ni Mulungu nde arehutsagula kwamba hupate muthalo kahi za ngumaye na udzo wa kwakwe
through which he also gave us the very great and rich gifts that he promised us With these gifts you can share in being like God And so you will escape the ruin that comes to people in the world because of the evil things they want,Kwa ngira ii bai Mulungu wahuhasa zhomu zhenye kwa kuhup'a zho vigerwa vidzo arizhofulaga Na vigerwa vivi bai vindahup'a nguvu za kushinda th'amaa mbii-mbii za urumwengu kwa ngira ii mundakala here Mulungu
Because you have these blessings do all you can to add to your life these things to your faith add goodness to your goodness add knowledge,Kwa ut'u uwo bai musithosheke na ko kumukuluhira Mulungu kare thu hatha ngezani na kuishi maisha madzo Mukikala munaishi maisha madzo ngezani na kumumanya Mulungu zaidhi
to your knowledge add selfcontrol to your selfcontrol add patience to your patience add devotion to God,Bai mundihokala munamumanya Mulungu dzizulieni na mai Kahi za kudzizulia kwenu bai vumirirani mashaka Na dzulu za kuvumirira mashaka mufwahizeni Mulungu kwa maisha genu
to your devotion add kindness toward your brothers and sisters in Christ and to this kindness add love,Na dzulu za kumufwahiza Mulungu hendzanani here ndugu Na dzulu za kuhendzana here ndugu ahenzeni at'u osi
If all these things are in you and growing you will never fail to be useful to God You will produce the kind of fruit that should come from your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ,Kwani mukienderera kugathimiza maut'u gaga gosi maisha genu gandakala na faidha kwa kukala mwamumanya Bwana Jesu Masihi jeri
But those who dont grow in these blessings are blind They cannot see clearly what they have They have forgotten that they were cleansed from their past sins,Ela chamba k'amuvizho nidzizhomwambira mundakala mu here mut'u kipofu atseona kwani mundakala mudzasahau kukala zo dambi zenu za kapindi Mulungu wagonya kumutsusa kare
My brothers and sisters God called you and chose you to be his Do your best to live in a way that shows you really are Gods called and chosen people If you do all this you will never fall,Kwa vizho hendani chadi ndugu zangu ili maisha genu ganyese kukala mwatsagulwa ni Mulungu jeri nanwi mukihenda vizho asena k'amundauya nyuma ng'otolo
And you will be given a very great welcome into the kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ a kingdom that never ends,Badaye ye Bwana mwokoli wehu Jesu Masihi andamukaribishat'o kahi za wo uthawaliwe wa kare na kare
You already know these things You are very strong in the truth you have But I am always going to help you remember them,Kwa vizho nindakala nikimukumbukiza maut'u gaga kwenda-kwenda ingahokala munagamanya kare na vivi muimire kahi za ujeri
While I am still living here on earth I think it is right for me to remind you of them,Na nikikala nichere kuishi kahi za mwiri uu ninaona kukala ni hachi nikale nikimukumbukiza dzulu za maut'u gaga
I know that I must soon leave this body Our Lord Jesus Christ has shown me that,Kwani ninamanya kukala uu mwiri wangu be si kure na kuuricha bule here Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi arizhonayesa lwazu
I will try my best to make sure you remember these things even after I am gone,Nami ninahendza zhomu kuhakikisha kukala hatha nikikala nidzauka kidza maut'u gaga mukale munagakumbukira siku zosi
We told you about the power of our Lord Jesus Christ We told you about his coming The things we told you were not just clever stories that people invented No we saw the greatness of Jesus with our own eyes,Kwani hurihokudzamumanyisa dzulu za kudza na nguvu za Bwana Jesu Masihi k'afuhumirire ngano za kuhenda kutungwa bule ela fwamumanyisa here mashahidhi hurio wo ubomuwe fwawona na matso gehu
This makes us more sure about what the prophets said And it is good for you to follow closely what they said which is like a light shining in a dark place You have that light until the day begins and the morning star brings new light to your minds,Bai vivi funa hakika zaidhi na wo ujumbe wa manabii Na ujumbe uwo mukiugwira mundakala munahenda ut'u udzo mana uwo ni here taa ring'alaro kizani muhaka haho kundihocha na nyenyezi ya madzach'a indihombola na ing'ale mioyoni mwenu
Most important of all you must understand this No prophecy in the Scriptures comes from the prophets own understanding,Kwandza mosi manyani kukala k'akuna mut'u adimaye kumboza mana ya unabii kahi za Maoro kwa kuhumira akilize mwenye
No prophecy ever came from what some person wanted to say But people were led by the Holy Spirit and spoke words from God,Kwani k'akuna mut'u ariyemboza unabii kula kwa akilize mwenye ela at'u mamboza unabii kula kwa Mulungu kwa kulongozwa ni Roho Mweri
In the past there were false prophets among Gods people It is the same now You will have some false teachers in your group They will teach things that are wrongideas that will cause people to be lost And they will teach in a way that will be hard for you to see that they are wrong They will even refuse to follow the Master who bought their freedom And so they will quickly destroy themselves,Haho kapindi kwambola manabii a ulongo kahi za at'u a Iziraeli Na hatha vivi nazho kisha kundatsumbuka alimu a ulongo kahi zenu Alimu aa mandakudzamufundisha mafundisho ga ulongo gandigoanonga at'u bila kumanya At'u aa mandamukahala ye Bwana Jesu Masihi ariyeagula Bai kwa kuhenda vizho mandakala manadzirehera wangamiki mara mwenga
Many people will follow them in the morally wrong things they do And because of them others will say bad things about the way of truth we follow,Ela hatha hamwenga na vizho anji kahi za o ndugu mariokuluhira mandaathuwiriza o alimu a ulongo kahi za kuhenda maitsi-maitsi Vivi vindaahenda at'u angine maihukane yo Ngira ya jeri
These false teachers only want your money So they will use you by telling you things that are not true But the judgment against these false teachers has been ready for a long time And they will not escape God who will destroy them,Zho go alimu aa a ulongo mandamwambiriza uvoro wa kuhenda kutila ili madzithajirishe kwa kumuhoka p'esa zenu Mana ao mana ndani nyalamu Ela Mulungu ariye nde jaji k'alala bule andaanonga-nonga hatha makole
When angels sinned God did not let them go free without punishment He sent them to hell He put those angels in caves of darkness where they are being held until the time when God will judge them,Kwani ho kapindi kwahenda malaika mariohenda dambi Bai Mulungu k'aarichire bule ela waafunga akiatsuha kahi za shimo ra kiza kuthariza hukumu
And God punished the evil people who lived long ago He brought a flood to the world that was full of people who were against God But he saved Noah and seven other people with him Noah was a man who told people about living right,H'aya zho mbai haho kapindi vizho kwakala na mut'u ariyekala anaifwa Nuhu Mut'u yuyu Nuhu wakala akiambiriza at'u maishi maisha ga kumufwahiza Mulungu ela o k'amasikirire bule K'uzhona zho Mulungu akianyesa mwijo kwa kuahosa osi na muretho wa kitai ela akimuthizha Nuhu na andziye afungahe
God also punished the evil cities of Sodom and Gomorrah He burned them until there was nothing left but ashes He used those cities as an example of what will happen to people who are against God,H'aya badaye kukihenda midzi ya Sodomu na Gomora Ii Mulungu waikundya moho yosi miri kwa go maitsi ga at'u a midzi iyo ili mut'u yoyosi ahendaye mai amanye kukala gago ndo gandigomupata
So you see that the Lord God knows how to save those who are devoted to him He will save them when troubles come And the Lord will hold evil people to punish them on the day of judgment,Kwa vizho bai Mulungu anamanya kuamboza mashakani at'u mamufwahizao na kuaika athiriri hat'u hafufu kuthariza hukumu
That punishment is for those who are always doing the evil that their sinful selves want to do It is for those who hate the Lords authority,Kwandza aryahu athiriri malongozwao ni th'amaa mbii-mbii za miri yao na k'amamwagoha Bwana Mulungu be tha ndo mandioona romu zhomu
The angels are much stronger and more powerful than these beings But even the angels dont accuse them and say bad things about them to the Lord,Lola zho mahendazho o alimu a ulongo be hatha o malaika enye mario mana wadimi kuakira ao k'amavihenda bule k'amadhyoma hedu kuashithaki kwa Bwana Mulungu o alimu a ulongo
But these false teachers speak evil against what they dont understand They are like animals that do things without really thinkinglike wild animals that are born to be caught and killed And like wild animals they will be destroyed,Ela o alimu a ulongo ma here nyama a tsakani mario kazi yao ni kuindzwa na kwalagwa At'u aa ro mandirosikira kuritengeza manaritengeza mufano wa nyama a tsakani viryahu Ut'u uriwo k'amaumanyat'o be mandawangirira na maneno mai-mai jeri Bai at'u aa mandalagwa gafula dza viryahu nyama a tsakani mahendwazho
They have made many people suffer So they themselves will suffer That is their pay for what they have done,Mandarifwa mai kwa go mai marigoahendera andziyao Alimu ao vizho mandaika sherehe za kuhendera mathuruthuru hatha na mutsana wenye At'u aa mandihokudzarya nanwi mandamuaibisha na kumuhaka nyenye kuno manaenderera na t'abia zao za ukengi
Every time they look at a woman they want her They are always sinning this way And they lead weaker people into the trap of sin They have taught themselves well to be greedy They are under a curse,H'aya zho go alimu aa mandakala k'amendzi kuona muche na matso Nao mandakala manafuna dambi thu na k'amakuha Mandakala kazi yao ni kuathuwa aryahu at'u mario k'amana kuluhiro ra thendhe na kuangiza dambini Alimu aa be ko kuhendza p'esa kuko hatha k'azhadimikika Bai Mulungu waalani
These false teachers left the right way and went the wrong way They followed the same way that the prophet Balaam went He was the son of Beor who loved being paid for doing wrong,At'u aa ma here Balamu mwana wa Beori ariyetsamirwa ni saniti hatha akikala a thayari kuhenda dambi ela azipate Bai o alimu nao mandaricha yo ngira ya jeri na mathuwe wo ulongo wao wa kudzipatira p'esa
But a donkey told him that he was doing wrong A donkey cannot talk of course but that donkey spoke with a mans voice and stopped the prophet from acting so crazy,Vikara yuyahu nabii Balamu nidziyemuhadza arihokala anendahenda mai zhabidhi Mulungu amukanye Mulungu wamuhendya ye ndzowe wa Balamu anene here mut'u ili iye Balamu asihende zho vilaluzhe zha kwendahenda mai
These false teachers are like springs that have no water They are like clouds that are blown by a storm A place in the deepest darkness has been kept for them,H'aya nichere na o alimu a ulongo At'u aa k'amana faidha yoyosi Ma here visima virizhouma madzi H'aya zho mbai ao ma here maingu garigo ganafuswa ni p'eho na vula k'ainya H'aya Mulungu waadhibu kwa kuaika hat'u henye ridziza ra mugunguna
They boast with words that mean nothing They lead people into the trap of sin They find people who have just escaped from a wrong way of life and lead them back into sin They do this by using the evil things people want to do in their human weakness,Alimu aa be kazi yao ni kudzikulula na kunena maneno ga kizuzu Nao mandahumira wo ujanja wao wa maitsi-maitsi kuakenga at'u maathuwe haswa aryahu at'u ambao matoka na ahendi a mai dzuzi-dzuzi na makimukuluhira Jesu
These false teachers promise those people freedom but they themselves are not free They are slaves to a mind that has been ruined by sin Yes people are slaves to anything that controls them,H'aya zho go ao vizho mandirohenda ni kuambira at'u vivi H'aa samba mu huru gonya ko o enye kare madzangizwa p'ambajani ni go mathuruthuru gandigoanonga Mana mut'u ahendywa mutumwa ni kiryahu kit'u kidzichomugwira ngwa
People can be made free from the evil in the world They can be made free by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ But if they go back into those evil things and are controlled by them then it is worse for them than it was before,Vikara wakathi aa alimu marihokala madzamumanya Bwana mwokoli Jesu Masihi makala go maitsi ga urumwengu madzagaricha Ela makidza makiuya nyuma na makigauyira go mathuruthuru makikatama kuko Bai zho marizho vivi be ni vii-vii hatha baha ho chaho marihokala k'amadzamumanya Jesu
Yes it would be better for them to have never known the right way That would be better than to know the right way and then to turn away from the holy teaching that was given to them,Lola kalaho were k'amadzaimanya ngira ya jeri ya Jesu Masihi be k'ahungaamba ndo sababu ela ko sozho Kwa kukala marihokala madzaumanya ujeri ao mahunduka na zo amuri za Mulungu makizika k'anda
What they did is like these true sayings A dog vomits and goes back to what it threw upAnd After a pig is washed it goes back and rolls in the mud again,Bai vizho marizhohenda be vidzahalana na gago garigonenwa kahi za ndhumo kukala K'uro ni kuhahika gonya go mahahika akagauyira akagarya Ndhumo nyingine ni ii Nguluwe hatha ukamwagesa ni bule andauya ho kitholetholeni
My friends this is the second letter I have written to you I wrote both letters to you to help your honest minds remember something,Asena ii ni baruwa yangu ya hiri kumuorera Kahi za baruwa ii ninamuts'ots'era mioyo yenu kaheri kwa kumukumbukiza gago murigofundishwa dza zho nirizhohenda kahi za baruwa yangu ya kwandza ili mukale na maazo madzo
I want you to remember the words that the holy prophets spoke in the past And remember the command that our Lord and Savior gave us He gave us that command through your apostles,Garyahu maneno garigonenwa ni manabii a Mulungu haho kapindi hamwenga na go malagizo ga Bwana mwokoli wehu murigofundishwa ni o ahumwi be ningahendza mugakumbukire
It is important for you to understand what will happen in the last days People will laugh at you They will live following the evil they want to do,Vikara manyani vivi kukala siku za mwisho kundambola at'u mandiokala manathawalwa ni th'amaa mbii za miri yao At'u aa mandanena kavudhye
They will say Jesus promised to come again Where is he Our fathers have died but the world continues the way it has been since it was made,na kuamba K'alaga kukala andauya h'aya vino a hiko Akare ehu mafwa na maut'u ganaenderera kawaida thu K'akuna chochosi kisha hangu urumwengu uumbwe
But these people dont want to remember what happened long ago The skies were there and God made the earth from water and with water All this happened by Gods word,At'u aa manadzihendya madzasahau kukala haho kapindi Mulungu waumba mulunguni na ts'i kwa kunena thu Ts'i yambola madzini na ikidengerekwa ni madzi
Then the world was flooded and destroyed with water,Na kwa gago vizho Mulungu waanonga-nonga at'u ho kapindi wakathi wa vula ya muretho
And that same word of God is keeping the skies and the earth that we have now They are being kept to be destroyed by fire They are kept for the day of judgment and the destruction of all people who are against God,Kidza hatha vivi kwa kuhenda kunena thu mulunguni na ts'i vidzaikwa vizho muhaka ho Mulungu andihovinonga-nonga kwa kuviocha na moho Siku iyo at'u mario k'amamufwahiza Mulungu mandahukumiwa na manongwe-nongwe kamare
But dont forget this one thing dear friends To the Lord a day is like a thousand years and a thousand years is like a day,Asena kumbukirani kit'u kiki kukala siku mwenga kwa Mulungu ni here miaka alifu mwenga na miaka alifu mwenga ni here siku mwenga thu
The Lord is not being slow in doing what he promisedthe way some people understand slowness But God is being patient with you He doesnt want anyone to be lost He wants everyone to change their ways and stop sinning,Mulungu k'ana kisoi bule na kutengeza ut'u ariolaga kukala andauhenda here at'u angine maazazho Iye anahenda kumuvumirira thu K'endzi at'u mangamike ela anahendza at'u osi mathubu
But the day when the Lord comes again will surprise everyone like the coming of a thief The sky will disappear with a loud noise Everything in the sky will be destroyed with fire And the earth and everything in it will be burned up,Ela bai ye Bwana Jesu andauya bila mbadha here mwivi adzazho Siku iyo ko mulunguni kundaruruma na kwangamike Kila kit'u kindakundywa moho Kidza yo dhunia na vit'uzhe zhosi vindasha
Everything will be destroyed in this way So what kind of people should you be Your lives should be holy and devoted to God,Vikara chamba vit'u vindanongwa-nongwa namuna iyo ninwi suthi muishi maisha maeri na ga kudzimbozeza kwa Mulungu kamare-kamare
You should be looking forward to the day of God wanting more than anything else for it to come soon When it comes the sky will be destroyed with fire and everything in the sky will melt with heat,Bai hendani vivi kuno munaithariza siku iyo ya Mulungu kwa hamu Siku iyo ndo ambayo ko dzulu mulunguni kundanongwa-nongwa na moho Kila kit'u kindamumunyiswa ni wo moho
But God made a promise to us And we are waiting for what he promiseda new sky and a new earth That will be the place where goodness lives,Ela funathariza kicho kit'u aricholaga Mulungu yani mulunguni kusha na ts'i mbisha kuriko kila mut'u andakala anahenda hachi
Dear friends we are waiting for this to happen So try as hard as you can to be without sin and without fault Try to be at peace with God,Kwa vizho asena kahi za kuthariza maut'u gago hendani chadi muishi maisha maeri na mukale k'amuna kaila kokosi mbere za Mulungu kidza mukale muna dheri naye
Remember that we are saved because our Lord is patient Our dear brother Paul told you that same thing when he wrote to you with the wisdom that God gave him,Kumbukirani kukala Bwana anahenda kuvumirira thu ili angine maokoke dza zho muhendzwi wehu ndugu P'aulo arizhomuorera kare kwa kuhumira ulachu ariwogerwa ni Mulungu
Thats what he says in all his letters when he writes about these things There are parts of his letters that are hard to understand and some people give a wrong meaning to them These people are ignorant and weak in faith They also give wrong meanings to the other Scriptures But they are destroying themselves by doing that,Naye ananena dzulu za maut'u gaga kahi za baruwaze zosi Na kahi za zo baruwaze kuna maut'u garigo ni makomu kugaelewa na at'u masomanya kit'u na masio musimamo nikugagaluza manaye dza zho mahendazho kwa Maoro mangine Nao kwa kuhenda vivi vindaahendya manongwe-nongwe
Dear friends you already know about this So be careful Dont let these evil people lead you away by the wrong they do Be careful that you do not fall from your strong faith,Kwa vizho asena kwa kukala maut'u gaga munagamanya kare dzimanyirireni p'ore go mafundisho ga at'u masiomumanya Mulungu gakamwangamiza ngira na haho hat'u imara muriho vivi mukahambola
But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ Glory be to him now and forever Amen,Ela endererani kukala ts'ini za nema ya Bwana wehu mwokoli Jesu Masihi na muenderere kumumanya zaidhi Nguma naagerwe iye vivi hatha kare na kare
We want to tell you about the Wordthat gives lifethe one who existed before the world began This is the one we have heard and have seen with our own eyes We saw what he did and our hands touched him,Siswi funamwandhikira uvoro uu dzulu za neno ra uzima Neno riri rakalako hatha kabila urumwengu k'audzaumbwa Fwarisikira na masikiro gehu fukirona na matso gehu na fukirigut'a na mikono yehu yenye na pia fukirilola

We are telling you about what we have seen and heard because we want you to have fellowshipwith us The fellowship we share together is with God the Father and his Son Jesus Christ,Siswi funamwambiriza dzulu ya gago furigogaona na matso na kugasikira na masikiro gehu Funahenda vivi ili ninwi na siswi fudime kushirikiana Kushirikiana kuku ni kuryahu kwa siswi na Baba Mulungu na Mwanawe Jesu Masihi
We write these things to you so that you can be full of joy with us,Bai funamwandhikira maut'u gaga ili yo raha furiyonayo idime kukamilika
We heard the true teaching from God Now we tell it to you God is light and in him there is no darkness,Vikara uu ndo uvoro furiwosikira akiunena iye Masihi kukala Mulungu ni mulangaza na kwakwe iye k'akuna kiza
So if we say that we share in life with God but we continue living in darkness we are liars who dont follow the truth,Kwa vizho fukidziamba kukala funashirikiana na Mulungu kuno ko go mahendo gehu ni here mut'u anendaye kizani fundakala fu alongo na fundakala k'afuishi kuthuwana na ujeri
We should live in the light where God is If we live in the light we have fellowship with each other and the blood sacrifice of Jesus Gods Son washes away every sin and makes us clean,Ela fukiishi here at'u mario mulangazani dza vizho iye Mulungu arizho kahi za mulangaza fundashirikiana na milatso ya Jesu indafuusiza dambi zehu zosi
If we say that we have no sin we are fooling ourselves and the truth is not in us,Fukidziamba k'afuna dambi fundakala funadzikenga enye na uwo ujeri wa Mulungu undakala k'aumo mo mioyoni mwehu
But if we confess our sins God will forgive us We can trust God to do this He always does what is right He will make us clean from all the wrong things we have done,Ela fukizisema dambi zehu lwazu kwa Mulungu iye andafusamehe na afuusize uwi wosini Mana iye Mulungu ni mwaminifu na muhachi
If we say that we have not sinned we are saying that God is a liar and that we dont accept his true teaching,Fukidziamba kukala k'afudzahenda dambi yoyosi fundamuhendya Mulungu aonekane mulongo na riro nenore rindakala k'arimo mo mioyoni mwehu
My dear children I write this letter to you so that you will not sin But if anyone sins we have Jesus Christ to help us He always did what was right so he is able to defend us before God the Father,Anangu athithe mut'u mimi ninamwandhikira maut'u gaga ili musihende dambi Ela bai mut'u akigafilika na akihenda dambi funa mut'u adimaye kuhuhehera mbere za Baba Mulungu Mut'u yuyu ni Jesu Masihi ambaye ni muhachi
Jesus is the way our sins are taken away And he is the way all people can have their sins taken away too,Yuyu Masihi nde sadaka ifuhendayo fukausizwa dambi zehu na si dambi zehu h'akiyehu thu ela hatha dambi za at'u osini haha urumwenguni
If we obey what God has told us to do then we are sure that we know him,Naswi fukigwira malagizoge ye Mulungu funadima kukala na hakika kukala funamumanya jeri
If we say we know God but do not obey his commands we are lying The truth is not in us,Mut'u akiamba anamumanya Mulungu gonya ko akale k'agwira malagizoge bai mut'u iye ni mulongo na uwo ujeri wa Mulungu k'aumo mo moyoni mwakwe
But when we obey Gods teaching his love is truly working in us This is how we know that we are living in him,Ela mut'u andiyerigwira ro nenore bai iye ndiye ariye anamuhendza Mulungu here vimalikanazho Na kit'u cha kuhumanyisa kukala funaishi kwa kulongozwa ni Mulungu ni kiki
If we say we live in God we must live the way Jesus lived,Mut'u adziambaye kukala anaishi maisha ga kulongozwa ni Mulungu be suthi aishi dza viryahu arizhoishi Jesu
My dear friends I am not writing a new command to you It is the same command you have had since the beginning This command is the teaching you have already heard,Asena ii amuri niriyo ninamwandhikira be si mbisha bule ni ya kapindi kenye Ni iyo ambayo mwaisikira hangu ho chaho Amuri ii ya hangu kapindi ni uwo Uvoro muriwombirizwa
But what I write is also a new command It is a true one you can see its truth in Jesus and in yourselves The darkness is passing away and the true light is already shining,Ela hatha hamwenga na vizho ni here ni mbisha Na uwo ujeri wa amuri ii u kahi za Masihi na kahi zenu Mana cho kiza kinangamika na uwo mulangaza wa jeri be vivi unang'ala kare
Someone might say I am in the light but if they hate any of their brothers or sisters in Gods family they are still in the darkness,Mut'u aambaye kukala a kahi za mulangaza ela ko adzamumena nduguye h'aya be mut'u iye achere anaishi kizani
Those who love their brothers and sisters live in the light and there is nothing in them that will make them do wrong,Mut'u amuhendzaye nduguye anaishi kahi za mulangaza na k'akuna kit'u chochosi kidimacho kumuhendya ahereze
But whoever hates their brother or sister is in darkness They live in darkness They dont know where they are going because the darkness has made them blind,Ela yuyahu mut'u adziyemumena nduguye achere anaishi na kunenda kizani Mut'u iye k'amanya endako mana cho kiza kidzamufinikira hatha k'aona
I write to you dear children because your sins are forgiven through Christ,Bai ninamwandhikira maut'u gaga ninwi anangu athithe kwa kukala Mulungu wamusamehe dambi zenu kukira kwa Jesu Masihi
Dont love this evil world or the things in it If you love the world you do not have the love of the Father in you,Musihendze urumwengu bule hedu hatha maut'u ga kwakwe kwa kukala mut'u auhendzaye urumwengu k'adima kumuhendza Baba Mulungu bule
This is all there is in the world wanting to please our sinful selves wanting the sinful things we see and being too proud of what we have But none of these comes from the Father They come from the world,Na maut'u ga urumwengu ni th'amaa mbii za mwiri maut'u ga kufwahiza matso na kiburi cha uzima Gaga gosi k'agambola kwa Baba Mulungu bule ganambola kwa urumwengu
The world is passing away and all the things that people want in the world are passing away But whoever does what God wants will live forever,Bai uu urumwengu hamwenga na gago maut'uge gahendzwago ni anadamu zhosi vindakira ela mut'u andiyehenda mahendzo ga Mulungu andaishi kare na kare
My dear children the end is near You have heard that the enemy of Christ is coming And now many enemies of Christ are already here So we know that the end is near,Anangu zizi be ni siku za mwisho na here murizhosikira kukala kundakudza mupingi wa Masihi h'aya vivi kare be kwakudza apingi anji a Masihi Na kit'u kicho ndo kifumanyisacho kukala ni siku za mwisho
These enemies were in our group but they left us They did not really belong with us If they were really part of our group they would have stayed with us But they left This shows that none of them really belonged with us,Bai at'u aa makala manaonekana ni ehu ela kudzi vivi were si ehu kala were ni ehu jeri ngere mahurira hamwenga naswi Kwa vizho kuryahu kuhuricha kwanyesa lwazu kukala ao were si ehu bule
You have the giftthat the Holy Onegave you So you all know the truth,Ela ninwi bai mwadzazwa Roho Mweri ni iye Masihi na nyosini munaumanya uwo ujeri
Do you think I am writing this letter because you dont know the truth No I am writing because you do know the truth And you know that no lie comes from the truth,Mimi simwandhikira gaga kwa kukala wo ujeri k'amuumanya ela ninamwandhikira kwa kukala munaumanya kare na kidza munamanya kukala ujeri k'auzhala ulongo
So who is the liar It is the one who says Jesus is not the Messiah Whoever says that is the enemy of Christthe one who does not believe in the Father or in his Son,Mut'u mulongo ni yuyahu aambaye kukala Jesu si iye Masihi ariyeambwa andakudza Mut'u dza yuyu nde mupingi wa Masihi Anamukahala iye Baba Mulungu hamwenga na iye Mwanawe
Whoever does not believe in the Son does not have the Father but whoever accepts the Son has the Father too,Mut'u amukahalaye iye Mwana wa Mulungu be hatha iye Baba naye kidza k'amo mo moyoni mwakwe Mut'u amukubaliye na kanwake iye Mwana bai iye Baba a ndani mwakwe
Be sure that you continue to follow the teaching you heard from the beginning If you do that you will always be in the Son and in the Father,Kwa vizho uryahu uvoro muriwousikira hangu chaho hakikishani munawika mioyoni mwenu Mukihenda vizho mundaenderera kuishi kahi za ushirika wa ninwi na ye Mwana na ye Baba
And this is what the Son promised useternal life,Na iye Masihi wafulaga kukala andahup'a uzima wa kare na kare
I am writing this letter about those who are trying to lead you into the wrong way,Maut'u gaga nidzamwandhikira kwa ut'u wa ao at'u mario manamala kumwangamiza ngira
Christ gave you a special gift You still have this gift in you So you dont need anyone to teach you The gift he gave you teaches you about everything It is a true gift not a false one So continue to live in Christ as his gift taught you,Ela ninwi bai k'amuna haja ya kufundishwa ni mut'u mana iye Masihi wamugera Roho wa kwakwe na iye bai anathosha Iye Roho wa Masihi ndiye amufundishaye maut'u gosi Na gago amufundishago ni ga jeri si ulongo bule Kwa vizho gagwireni gago mufundishwago ni iye Roho na muenderere kumuthuwa Masihi
Yes my dear children live in him If we do this we can be without fear on the day when Christ comes again We will not need to hide and be ashamed when he comes,Vikara anangu athithe endererani kumuthuwa Masihi ili wakathi andihokudza fusikale aoga na fusikale na haya naye
You know that Christ always did what was right So you know that all those who do what is right are Gods children,Bai kwa kukala munamanya kukala iye ni muhachi ndo pia munamanya kukala kila ahendaye hachi ni mwana wa Mulungu
The Father has loved us so much This shows how much he loved us We are called children of God And we really are his children But the people in the world dont understand that we are Gods children because they have not known him,Lolani ye Baba zho afuhendzazho Anafuhendza zhomu hatha funaifwa ana a Mulungu kamare Na ndo furizho jeri Kitumacho hatha uwo urumwengu k'auhumanya ni kwa sababu uwo k'audzangwe kumumanya Mulungu
Dear friends now we are children of God We have not yet been shown what we will be in the future But we know that when Christ comes again we will be like him We will see him just as he is,Ahendzwi vivi kare fu ana a Mulungu ela k'afudima kumanya chamba mwisho kamare fundakala namuna yani Fumanyazho ni kukala wakathi Masihi andihouya fundakala dza vizho arizho iye mana fundamona lwazu-lwazu na matso
He is pure and everyone who has this hope in him keeps themselves pure like Christ,Bai mut'u yoyosi ariye na th'amaa ya kumona Masihi suthi adziahuse na mai na akale mueri dza vizho arizho iye
Anyone who sins breaks Gods law Yes sinning is the same as living against Gods law,Mut'u ahendaye dambi anahenda kosa ra kubanda sheria mana dambi ni kubanda sheria
You know that Christ came to take away peoples sins There is no sin in Christ,Nanwi munamanya kukala Masihi wakudza ili aausize at'u dambi zao mana iye k'ahenda dambi kamare
So whoever lives in Christ does not continue to sin If they continue to sin they have never really understood Christ and have never known him,Mut'u k'adima kukala analongozwa ni Masihi gonya ko akakala anaenderera kuhenda dambi Mut'u aendereraye kuhenda dambi k'amumanya Masihi hatha kumona kwenye kidza k'adzamona
Dear children dont let anyone lead you into the wrong way Christ always did what was right So to be good like Christ you must do what is right,Anangu athithe musikengwe bule mut'u ahendaye ga hachi ni muhachi dza viryahu Masihi arizho muhachi
The devil has been sinning since the beginning Anyone who continues to sin belongs to the devil The Son of God came for this to destroy the devils work,Mut'u aendereraye kuhenda dambi ni wa Shethani mana Shethani waandza kuhenda dambi hangu ho chaho Kwa ut'u uwo Mwana wa Mulungu wakudza haha dhuniani ili azinonge-nonge zo kazi za Shethani
Those who are Gods children do not continue to sin because the new life God gave themstays in them They cannot keep sinning because they have become children of God,Mut'u ariye adzauya ni mwana wa Mulungu k'aenderera kuhenda dambi mana ana mbeyu ya Mulungu ndanimwe na pia k'aenderera kuhenda dambi kwa kukala iye ni mwana wa Mulungu
So we can see who Gods children are and who the devils children are These are the ones who are not Gods children those who dont do what is right and those who do not love their brothers and sisters in Gods family,Na ngira idimayo kuhumanyisa wa Mulungu ni h'ani na wa Shethani ni h'ani ni ii Mut'u ariye anahenda maut'u garigo si karakara si mwana wa Mulungu ni wa Shethani Na mut'u amenaye nduguze si mwana wa Mulungu
This is the teaching you have heard from the beginning We must love each other,Vikara uwo uvoro wa kukala muhendzane ndiwo muriwousikira hangu chaho Bai hendzanani
Dont be like Cain He belonged to the Evil One Cain killed his brother But why did he kill him Because what Cain did was evil and what his brother did was good,Musikale here Kaini Kaini wamwalaga nduguye mwenye Kirichotuma amwalage nduguye ni kiki Iye Kaini mahendoge were ni mai ga nduguye go gakikala ni madzo Kwa vizho yuyu Kaini were ni wa ye Mui
Brothers and sisters dont be surprised when the people of this world hate you,Kwa vizho ndugu zangu urumwengu ukimumena musishangae bule
We know that we have left death and have come into life We know this because we love each other as brothers and sisters Anyone who does not love is still in death,Bai kwa kukala funahendzana na ndugu zehu funamanya kukala fwambola kifwani fuchangira uzimani Mut'u ariye k'ahendzana na nduguze ni here achere kifwani
Anyone who hates a fellow believer is a murdererAnd you know that no murderer has eternal life,Mut'u adziyemumena nduguye ni mwalagi Na here mumanyazho mwalagi k'ana uzima wa kare na kare
This is how we know what real love is Jesus gave his life for us So we should give our lives for each other as brothers and sisters,Jesu walazha uzimawe achalagwa kwa ut'u wehu Kwa vizho siswi naswi nifulazhe uzima wehu kwa ut'u wa ndugu zehu Na vivi ndo vinyesazho kukala funamanya mahendzo ni noni
Suppose a believer who is rich enough to have all the necessities of life sees a fellow believer who is poor and does not have even basic needs What if the rich believer does not help the poor one Then it is clear that Gods love is not in that persons heart,Ela mut'u akikala ana mali za kwakwe na amone nduguye ana shidha na akale k'andamuonera mbazi akamwaviza bai mut'u dza iye k'ana hachi ya kuamba anamuhendza Mulungu
My children our love should not be only words and talk No our love must be real We must show our love by the things we do,Kwa vizho anangu kuhendzana kwehu kusikale kwa maneno mahuhu thu ela ni kukale ni kuryahu kwa kuhenderana madzo-madzo na kwa ngira ya ujeri
My dear friends if we dont feel that we are doing wrong we can be without fear when we come to God,Kwa vizho asena mioyo yehu kala k'aifuhukumu k'afuna wasiwasi wowosi mbere za Mulungu
And God gives us what we ask for We receive it because we obey Gods commands and do what pleases him,Na kwa kukala k'afuna wasiwasi chochosi fundichomuvoya anafup'a Bai anafup'a kwa kukala funagwira malagizoge na kuhenda garyahu maut'u gamufwahizago
This is what God commands that we believe in his Son Jesus Christ and that we love each other as he commanded,Vikara go malagizo ga kwakwe ni gaga Siswi nifurikuluhire riro dzina ra iye Mwanawe Jesu Masihi na fuhendzane here arizhofulagiza
All who obey Gods commands live in God And God lives in them How do we know that God lives in us We know because of the Spirit he gave us,At'u mario managathuwa go malagizoge ma ndani ya Mulungu na iye Mulungu a ndani mwao Na iye Roho ariyehup'a nde ahumanyisaye kukala Mulungu anaishi ndani mwehu
My dear friends many false prophets are in the world now So dont believe every spirit but test the spirits to see if they are from God,Asena musiamini kila mut'u adziambaye kukala ana Roho wa Mulungu Hat'u ha vizho pimani kwandza mumanye chamba iye roho adziambaye anaye ni wa Mulungu jeri Mana mumu dhuniani muna manabii anji a ulongo
This is how you can recognize Gods Spirit One spirit says I believe that Jesus is the Messiah who came to earth and became a man That Spirit is from God,Vikara ngira ya kumanyisa kala iye roho ala kwa Mulungu hedu sozho ni ii Kila nabii ariye anakiri kukala Jesu Masihi wakudza haha dhuniani here mudamu analongozwa ni Roho wa Mulungu
Another spirit refuses to say this about Jesus That spirit is not from God This is the spirit of the enemy of Christ You have heard that the enemy of Christ is coming and now he is already in the world,Ela nabii ambaye k'amukubali Jesu analongozwa ni roho ambayo si ya Mulungu Kwani roho ya samupuli iyo ni ya yuyahu mupingi wa Masihi Mwasikira kukala roho mupingi wa Masihi indakudza h'aya vivi be manyani kukala yakudza kare hatha i haha urumwenguni
My dear children you belong to God so you have already defeated these false prophets Thats because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world,Ela ninwi anangu mu a Mulungu na mwagonya kuashinda kare aa manabii a ulongo Mana iye ariye ndani yehu ana nguvu kumushinda iye ariye dhuniani
And they belong to the world so what they say is from the world too And the world listens to what they say,Ao manabii a ulongo ni a haha dhuniani kwa vizho gago manenago ni ga kidhunia ndo hatha ao at'u a dhuniani ni kuasirikiza
But we are from God So the people who know God listen to us But the people who are not from God dont listen to us This is how we know the Spirit that is true and the spirit that is false,Ela siswi fu a Mulungu Mut'u amumanyaye Mulungu ni kuhusirikiza ela yuyahu asiyemumanya Mulungu k'ahusirikiza bule Kwa ngira iyo funadima kumanya ni h'ani ariye na Roho wa jeri na ni h'ani ariye na roho ya ukengi
Dear friends we should love each other because love comes from God Everyone who loves has become Gods child And so everyone who loves knows God,Asena siswi nifuhendzane mana mahendzo gambola kwa Mulungu Mut'u aahendzaye andziye ni mwana wa Mulungu na anamumanya Mulungu
Anyone who does not love does not know God because God is love,Mut'u asiyehendza andziye k'amumanya Mulungu mana iye Mulungu nde mahendzo
This is how God showed his love to us He sent his only Son into the world to give us life through him,Mulungu wafwanyesa kukala anafuhendza kwa kumuhuma Mwanawe wa h'akeye haha dhuniani ili kukirira na iye fudime kuishi
True love is Gods love for us not our love for God He sent his Son as the way to take away our sins,Vikara vizho arizhohenda Mulungu be ndo mahendzo jeri Si kwamba siswi fwamuhendza Mulungu hatha iye Mulungu ndiye ariyefuhendza hatha akimuhuma Mwanawe adze akale sadaka ya kufuusiza dambi zehu
That is how much God loved us dear friends So we also must love each other,Vikara asena kwa kukala Mulungu wafuhendza namuna iyo siswi naswi funavirya fuhendzane
No one has ever seen God But if we love each other God lives in us If we love each other Gods love has reached its goalit is made perfect in us,K'akuna mut'u ariyemona Mulungu ela bai fukihendzana Mulungu anaishi ndani zehu na gago mahendzo ga kwakwe ganakamilika
We know that we live in God and God lives in us We know this because he gave us his Spirit,Naswi funamanya kukala funaishi ndani ya Mulungu na iye naye anaishi ndani zehu kwa kukala wahup'a Roho wa kwakwe
We have seen that the Father sent his Son to be the Savior of the world and this is what we tell people now,H'aya visithoshe siswi funamanya kukala Mulungu wamuhuma Mwanawe adze awokole uu urumwengu Sababu ya kunena vizho ni kwamba siswi fwamona na matso na ndosa funaambiriza at'u dzulu ya maut'u gago
Anyone who says I believe that Jesus is the Son of God is a person who lives in God and God lives in that person,Mut'u akubaliye kukala Jesu ni Mwana wa Mulungu bai Mulungu a ndani ya mut'u iye na iye naye a ndani ya Mulungu
So we know the love that God has for us and we trust that love,Na kwa vizho funamanya na funakuluhira viryahu Mulungu afuhendzazho
If Gods love is made perfect in us we can be without fear on the day when God judges the world We will be without fear because in this world we are like Jesus,Bai Mulungu anagakamilisha gago mahendzo ga kwehu ili uryahu wakathi wa hukumu fukale k'afuna wasiwasi mana here Masihi arizho siswi naswi fu here iye kahi za urumwengu uu
Where Gods love is there is no fear because Gods perfect love takes away fear It is his punishment that makes a person fear So his love is not made perfect in the one who has fear,Mut'u mwenye mahendzo dza gago k'ana cha woga-woga mana mahendzo ni kuwomboza wosi wo woga Woga unarefwa ni wasiwasi wa k'anji ndahukumiwa we Na mut'u mwenye woga ananyesa k'adzangwe kukamilika kahi za go mahendzo
We love because God first loved us,Bai sababu ya siswi kumuhendza Mulungu ni kwamba iye ndiye ariyeandza kufuhendza siswi
If we say we love God but hate any of our brothers or sisters in his family we are liars If we dont love someone we have seen how can we love God We have never even seen him,Mut'u akiamba kukala anamuhendza Mulungu na kuno adzamumena nduguye mut'u iye ni mulongo kare Mana kala nduguyo umonaye k'umwendzi udimadze kumuhendza Mulungu uriye k'umona
God gave us this command If we love God we must also love each other as brothers and sisters,Iye Masihi mwenye wafup'a amuri ii kukala mut'u amuhendzaye Mulungu k'ana budhi amuhendze nduguye
The people who believe that Jesus is the Messiah are Gods children Anyone who loves the Father also loves the Fathers children,Kila mut'u akuluhiraye kukala Jesu ndiye Masihi bai mut'u iye ni mwana wa Mulungu na kila mut'u amuhendzaye iye muzhazi ni kumuhendza hatha iye mwanawe naye
How do we know that we love Gods children We know because we love God and we obey his commands,Ngira ya kuhumanyisa viryahu fuahendzazho ana a Mulungu ni ii Nifumuhendze na fugwire malagizoge
Loving God means obeying his commands And Gods commands are not too hard for us,Mana kumuhendza Mulungu ni kuryahu kugwira malagizoge Na gago malagizoge si makomu bule
because everyone who is a child of God has the power to win against the world,Kwani kila mwana wa Mulungu nikuushinda urumwengu Kiryahu kifuhendacho hatha fukaushinda uu urumwengu ni kuryahu kumukuluhira Masihi kwehu
It is our faith that has won the victory against the world So who wins against the world Only those who believe that Jesus is the Son of God,Bai mut'u adimaye kuushinda urumwengu ni yuyahu akuluhiraye kukala Jesu ni Mwana wa Mulungu
Jesus Christ is the one who came He came with water and with bloodHe did not come by water only No Jesus came by both water and blood And the Spirit tells us that this is true The Spirit is the truth,Jesu Masihi nde ariyekudza kwa ushahidhi wa madzi na mulatso Jesu k'adzire kwa ushahidhi wa madzi h'akeye hatha iye wakudza kwa ushahidhi wa madzi na milatso Na hatha iye Roho naye anaamba gaga ni jeri mana iye kila andironena ni jeri
So there are three witnesses that tell us about Jesus,Kuna mashahidhi ahahu ambao manamboza ushahidhi dzulu za Jesu Masihi
the Spirit the water and the blood These three witnesses agree,Wa kwandza ni iye Roho hiri ni go madzi hahu ni milatso Aa osi ahahu ushahidhi wao unagwirana
We believe people when they say something is true But what God says is more important And this is what God told us He told us the truth about his own Son,Vikara chamba ushahidhi wa binadamu thu funadima kuukuluhira h'e seze wo wa Mulungu uriwo ni ushahidhi uriwo unasita Mana ni ushahidhi ariowamboza Mulungu dzulu za Mwanawe
Whoever believes in the Son of God has the truth that God told us But people who do not believe God make God a liar because they do not believe what God told us about his Son,Kwa vizho mut'u amukuluhiraye Mwana wa Mulungu ana uu ushahidhi uu mo moyoni mwakwe ela asiyemukuluhira Mulungu anamuhendya ye Mulungu ni mulongo mana k'aukuluhira wo ushahidhiwe dzulu za Mwanawe
This is what God told us God has given us eternal life and this life is in his Son,Bai wo ushahidhi ni uu Mulungu wafup'a uzima wa kare na kare Uzima uu funaupata kukirirana Mwanawe
Whoever has the Son has life but whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life,Mut'u ariye ana iye Mwana mo moyoni mwakwe ana uzima wa kare na kare ela iye ariye k'ana iye Mwana wa Mulungu mo moyoni mwakwe k'ana uzima wa kare na kare bule
I write this letter to you who believe in the Son of God I write so that you will know that you have eternal life now,Bai ninamwandhikira maut'u gaga ninwi murio munakuluhira dzina ra Mwana wa Mulungu ili mumanye kukala muna uzima wa kare na kare
We can come to God with no doubts This means that when we ask God for things and those things agree with what God wants for us God cares about what we say,Naswi funa hakika kamare kukala fukimuvoya kit'u chochosi kulengana na vizho ahendzazho iye andafusikira
He listens to us every time we ask him So we know that he gives us whatever we ask from him,Vikara kala funamanya fukivoya chochosi anafusikira bai fukivoya funa hakika fudzavipata kare zho fudzizhovoya
Suppose you see your fellow believer sinning sin that does not lead to eternal death You should pray for them Then God will give them life I am talking about people whose sin does not lead to eternal death There is sin that leads to death I dont mean that you should pray about that kind of sin,Mut'u akimona nduguye anahenda dambi isiyomuhirika kifwani ni amuvoyere na Mulungu andamup'a uzima Gaga ninaganena haswa kwa aryahu at'u ambao dambi zao zinaarehera kifwa Ela bai kuna dambi nyingine idimayo kumuhirika mut'u kifwani vikara siamba muavoyere at'u mahendao dambi iyo bule
Doing wrong is always sin But there is sin that does not lead to eternal death,Kosa rorosi ni dambi ela kuna dambi ambayo k'aimuhirika mut'u kifwani
We know that those who have been made Gods children do not continue to sin The Son of God keeps them safeThe Evil One cannot hurt them,Here fumanyazho mut'u ariye ni mwana wa Mulungu k'aenderera kuhenda dambi mana iye Jesu Mwana wa Mulungu ni kumurinda na iye Mui k'adima kumugut'a bule
We know that we belong to God but the Evil One controls the whole world,H'aya zho go siswi funamanya kukala fu ana a Mulungu na funamanya kukala wo urumwengu unathawalwa ni Mui
And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding So now we can know the one who is true and we live in that true God We are in his Son Jesus Christ He is the true God and he is eternal life,Kidza funamanya kukala Mwana wa Mulungu wakudzafung'aza matso ili fumumanye iye Mulungu wa jeri Naswi bai fudzauya fu ndani za iye Mulungu wa jeri kwa kukala fu kahi za iye Mwanawe Jesu Masihi Iye nde Mulungu wa jeri na ndiye ahup'aye uzima wa kare na kare
So dear children keep yourselves away from false gods,H'aya bai anangu dziikeni kure na milungu ya vizuka
Greetings from the Elder To the lady chosen by God and to her children I truly love all of you And I am not the only one All those who know the truth love you in the same way,Baruwa ii ila kwangu mimi muzee Na ninakwandhikira uwe mwanamuche muhendzwi hamwenga na anao At'u ninwi ninamuhendza jeri-jeri nami si kwamba ninamuhendza h'akiyangu hatha Ninwi munahendzwa ni kila mut'u ariye anaumanya ujeri wa Mulungu
We love you because of the truththe truth that lives in us That truth will be with us forever,Sababu itumayo hatha funamuhendza namuna iyo ni kwamba siswi na ninwi funa ujeri wa Mulungu kahi za mioyo yehu na ujeri uu undakala hamwenga naswi hatha kare na kare

I was very happy to learn about some of your children I am happy that they are following the way of truth just as the Father commanded us,Mut'u mimi nina raha kwa kuaona anao angine mario manaishi kwa kuuthuwa wo ujeri here arizhofulagiza Baba
And now dear lady I tell you We should all love each other This is not a new command It is the same command we had from the beginning,Vikara m'ama ninakuvoya kukala fuhendzane Amuri ii ya kuhendzana ndo furiyokala nayo hangu ho chaho kwa vizho si kwamba nakwandhikira amuri mbisha

Many false teachers are in the world now They refuse to say that Jesus Christ came to earth and became a man Anyone who refuses to accept this fact is a false teacher and the enemy of Christ,Kwani at'u anji alongo madzamwagika urumwengu muzima Nao manakenga at'u na kuamba Jesu Masihi were si mwanadamu Bai mut'u yoyosi ariye namuna iyo ni mulongo na ni mupingi wa Masihi
Be careful Dont lose the reward wehave worked for Be careful so that you will receive all of that reward,Kwa vizho dzimanyirireni p'ore iyo kazi yenu muriyohenda ikakala ya kihuhu Dzimanyirireni ili mudze mugerwe zawadi yenu thele kwa thele
Everyone must continue to follow only the teaching about Christ Whoever changes that teaching does not have God But whoever continues to follow the teaching about Christ has both the Father and his Son,Mut'u andiyevuka muhaka wa mafundisho ga Masihi na kugwira mangine bai mut'u iye k'ana Mulungu bule Ela mut'u aendereraye kugagwira garyahu mafundisho ga Masihi bai ana ye Baba hamwenga na iye Mwanawe
Dont accept those who come to you but do not bring this teaching Dont invite them into your house Dont welcome them in any way,Mut'u akidza kwenu na mafundisho mangine mbali na gaga ga Masihi musimukaribishe madzumbani mwenu hedu hatha kumulamusa
If you do you are helping them with their evil work,Mana mut'u andiyemulamusa mut'u dza iye andakala adzadzangiza kahi za uwo uthiriri wa kwakwe

So we should help them When we help them we share with their work for the truth,Kwa vizho at'u dza vizho aa funavirya fuavize ili naswi fushirikiane nao kahi za kuhubiri ujeri wa Mulungu
I wrote a letter to the church but Diotrephes will not listen to what we say He always wants to be the leader,Mut'u mimi naora baruwa kwa riro kanisa kuko ela Diotirefe akinizarau Diotirefe anahendza akale iye nde kilongozi
When I come I will talk with him about what he is doing He lies and says evil things about us but that is not all He refuses to welcome and help the believers who travel there And he will not let others help them If they do he stops them from meeting with the church anymore,Vikara wakathi nindihokala nidzire nindaving'aza zhosi vizho ahendazho iye Gago gosini endago akinena dzulu zehu nindagang'aza H'aya zho mbai iye be k'aakaribisha bule o ndugu na hakimbola mut'u akikala anamala kuaviza anamukahaza na amuinge mo kanisani

Mercy peace and love be yours more and more,Bai navoya Mulungu amuonere mbazi na amuhendye mukale na dheri na mahendzo zhomu zhenye
Dear friends I wanted very much to write to you about the salvation we all share together But I felt the need to write to you about something else I want to encourage you to fight hard for the faith that God gave his holy people God gave this faith once and it is good for all time,Asenangu Were nahendza zhomu kumuorera dzulu za wokolwi uriwo wehu hosi kahi za maisha gehu Ela hat'u ha vizho naona vinavirya kwandza nimuorere na kumuadha kwamba murihehere ro kuluhiro ambaro Mulungu waap'a at'ue lumwenga na vikikala ni basi
Some people have secretly entered your group These people have already been judged guilty for what they are doing Long ago the prophets wrote about them They are against God They have used the grace of our God in the wrong wayto do sinful things They refuse to follow Jesus Christ our only Master and Lord,Kwani at'u masiomuhendza Mulungu manyapa-nyapa hatha makidzangiza kahi zehu hasiho mut'u kumanya Nao manaamba H'aa Mulungu ana mbazi mizaha bai Hatha mut'u akakala mukolo dzadze kisha k'avina hatha na ut'u Na at'u aa manakana kamare kukala ni suthi humwogohe Jesu Masihi dza here Mulungu na Bwana wehu Ao maroorerwa kuhukumiwa hangu kapindi na kapindi kwa kutsamugoha Mulungu managaluza nema ya Mulungu wehu kukala kit'u kisicho na mana
I want to help you remember some things you already know Remember that the Lordsaved his people by bringing them out of the land of Egypt But later he destroyed all those who did not believe,Bai vingahokala ni maruhe genu na k'avimala nimukumbukize kwani munavimanya kare kukala Bwana waathizha at'u kahi za ts'i ya Misiri ela kidza akiangamiza osi masiomukuluhira
And remember the angels who lost their authority to rule They left their proper home So the Lord has kept them in darkness bound with everlasting chains to be judged on the great day,Na o malaikamariodzibandira ishima yao na makiricha makalo gao mafungwa minyororo ya kare na kare machangizwa ndani za shimo ra kiza hatha ifike yo siku bomu ya hukumu
Also remember the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah and the other towns around them Like those angels they were full of sexual sin and involved themselves in sexual relations that are wrong And they suffer the punishment of eternal fire an example for us to see,Na kidza samba virya zha Sodomu na Gomorana yo midzi iriyohakana nayo munavimanya Kwani at'u a kuko mahenda here zho marizhohenda o malaika Mazinga na kuzinga hatha makizinga alume kwa alume Na Mulungu akiiocha yo midzi na o at'ue tikitiki kwamba makale mufano wa kuhumanyisa kukala ahendi a mai osi mandaochwa na moho wa kare na kare
It is the same way with these people who have entered your group They are guided by dreams They make themselves dirty with sin They reject Gods authority and say bad things against the glorious ones,Na ut'u uu be ndo uriwo na hatha aa alimu a ulongo mariodzangiza kahi za kundi renu Kwani manalongozwa ni ndoso na manadzihaka nyenye kwa kuhenda dambi Manauvudhya wadimi wa Mulungu na hatha manaatsuha-tsuha nyomba o malaika a nguma a ko dzulu
Not even the archangel Michael did this Michael argued with the devil about who would have the body of Moses But Michael did not dare to condemn even the devil for his false accusations Instead Michael said The Lord punish you,Hatha ye malaika mubomu mwenye wa osi aifwaye Mikaeli kisha ut'u dza uu k'auhendere Kwani arihokala ananenezana na Shethani dzulu za ni h'ani andiyeuhala mwiri wa Musa iye Mikaeli k'amudzigidzyire iye Shethani kwa kuhumira maneno mapashu ela tha wahenda kuamba Mulungu na akuchemere
But these people criticize things they dont understand They do understand some things But they understand these things not by thinking but by feeling the way dumb animals understand things And these are the things that destroy them,Ela ano alimu a ulongo o mananena mai dzulu za maut'u masigogaelewa Maut'u mangine managaelewa ela managaelewa dza here nyama a tsakani mario k'amaaza tha mahenda kusikiraNa maut'u gaga be ndo gaanongago-nongago
It will be bad for them They have followed the way that Cain went To make money they have given themselves to following the wrong way that Balaam went They have fought against God like Korahdid And like Korah they will be destroyed,Na lola at'u aa mandaona kitai Kwani manahenda here Kainiarizhohenda Na kidza kwa ut'u wa kuhendza p'esa manahenda kosa dza riryahu ra BalamuVisithoshe manakosa kumwogoha Mulungu here arizhohenda Kora Na dza here iye Koraao nao mandalaniwa ni Mulungu
These people are like dirty spots among youthey bring shame to you in the special meals you share together They eat with you and have no fear They take care of only themselves They are like clouds without rain The wind blows them around They are like trees that have no fruit at harvest time and are pulled out of the ground So they are twice dead,At'u ao madzaho na kurya chakurya cha ushirika hamwenga nanwi ma here maramara Kwani manahendza kudzitsundza ao enye kare madzahalana na maingu gafuswago kuno na kuno ni p'eho na k'agandapothosa hatha deswe Ao vizho madzahalana na mihi iriyo k'aizhala matunda wakathi ambaho inavirya ikale nago mimera ambayo idzazulwa na mizijiye na inendaochwa
Like the dirty foam on the wild waves in the sea everyone can see the shameful things they do They are like stars that wander in the sky A place in the blackest darkness has been kept for them forever,Nao manahenda mai dza here maimbi ga baharini ambago ni kupiga hatha gakaricha fulo kamare Na ro fulo ni here go mahendo gao mai Kidza mahalana na nyenyezi zirizo nikire-kire ko dzulu mulunguni Ao maikirwa hat'u henye ridziza ra mugunguna hatha kare na kare
Enoch the seventh descendant from Adam said this about these people Look the Lord is coming with thousands and thousands of his holy angels,Enok'o ambaye ni kizhazi cha fungahe kula Adamu wamboza unabii dzulu za at'u aa akiamba
to judge everyone He will punish all those who are against him for all the evil they have done in their lack of respect for him Yes the Lord will punish all these sinners who dont honor him He will punish them for all the evil things they have said against him,kudzahukumu at'u mariohenda maut'u garigo si ga kimulungu na kwa ut'u wa maneno mapashu-mapashu marigonena dzulu za Mulungu
These people always complain and find wrong in others They always do the evil things they want to do They boast about themselves The only reason they say good things about others is to get what they want,At'u aa vizho saa yosi mananung'unika na kuasingizira angine manahenda go mai-mai mahendzago kugahenda Kidza manahendza kudzidai na hatha makinena madzo dzulu za at'u angine be ni kukala lengo rao ni mapate cho mamalacho kula kwa o at'u
Dear friends remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ said would happen,Asenangu Musisahau bule viryahu murizhombirwa ni o ahumwi a Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi
They told you In the last times there will be people who laugh at God and do only what they want to dothings that are against God,Kwani maamba vivi Siku za mwisho kundambola at'u mandiomuzazigira Mulungu nao ni at'u mahendao garyahu gasigomufwahiza Mulungu
These are the people who divide you They are not spiritual because they dont have the Spirit,Na at'u aa ni aryahu mahendao at'u makagazhana na ao vizho mahenda gago gahendzwago ni miri yao K'amana Roho mweri bule
But you dear friends use your most holy faith to build yourselves up even stronger Pray with the help of the Holy Spirit,Ela ninwi asena bai endererani kudzika kahi za kuluhiro renu eri Voyani kwa nguvu za Roho mweri
Keep yourselves safe in Gods love as you wait for the Lord Jesus Christ in his mercy to give you eternal life,na dziikeni kahi za mahendzo ga Mulungu kuno munamuthariza Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi kahi za mbazize amup'e uzima wa kare na kare
Help those who have doubts,Aonereni mbazi ao mario k'amana hakika
Rescue those who are living in danger of hells fire There are others you should treat with mercy but be very careful that their filthy lives dont rub off on you,athizheni kwa kuhenda kuanyagula kula kwa moho Aonereni mbazi idziyotsanganyika na woga o angine-angine nao Zimeneni zo nguwo zao ambazo zi dododo kwa ut'u wa dambi
God is strong and can keep you from falling He can bring you before his glory without any wrong in you and give you great joy,Bai nguma yosi niikale kwa ye Mulungu h'akeye adimaye kumureha kahi za ngumaye hasiho kukala na kaila na kumup'a fwahiro bomu
He is the only God the one who saves us To him be glory greatness power and authority through Jesus Christ our Lord for all time past now and forever Amen,Kwa iye Mulungu h'akeye ariye nde mwokoli wehu nguma na ubomu na wadimi navikale kwakwe kukirira kwa Bwana wehu Jesu Masihi kula vivi hatha kare na kare H'aami
This is a revelationfrom Jesus Christ which God gave him to show his servants what must happen soon And Christ sent his angel to show it to his servant John,Mulungu wamwanyesa Jesu Masihi maut'u garigo were k'agandatoa lazima gandahendeka Naye wamwanyesa ili Jesu naye aanyese ahumikie Bai Jesu akihuma malaikawe achendamwanyesa muhumikiwe Johana gago maut'u
who has told everything he saw It is the truth that Jesus Christ told him it is the message from God,Naye Johana wamboza ushahidhi dzulu za maut'u gosi arigogaona Wamboza ushahidhi dzulu za ujumbe wa Mulungu na dzulu za ujeri wosi ariwowanyesa Jesu Masihi
Great blessings belong to the person who reads the words of this message from God and to those who hear this message and do what is written in it There is not much time left,Iye andiyeshoma na ao mandiogasirikiza maneno ga unabii uu na kugagwira gaga garigondhikwa mumu mandahaswa Kwani wakathi wa kuthimira maut'u gaga udzafika hehi
He made us his kingdom and priests who serve God his Father To Jesus be glory and power forever and ever Amen,Wahuhendya huthawale hamwenga naye na hukale alombi a Mulungu babaye Nguma na wadimi navikale kwakwe ye Jesu hatha kare na kare H'aami
Look Jesus is coming with the clouds Everyone will see him even those who piercedhim All peoples of the earth will cry loudly because of him Yes this will happen Amen,Lolani Jesu Masihi anadza na maingu na kila mumwenga andamona Hatha ao mariomudunga fumo nao kidza mandamona Na at'u osi urumwenguni mandashikithika kwa ut'u wa iye Na vizho ndo vindizhokala zhenye
The Lord God says I am the Alpha and the OmegaI am the one who is who always was and who is coming I am the AllPowerful,Bwana Mulungu mwenye nguvu zosi iye ariyekalako ariyeko na andiyekudza anaamba vivi Mimi ndimi Alifa na ndimi Omega
I am John your fellow believer We are together in Jesus and we share these things suffering the kingdom and patient endurance I was on the island of Patmosbecause I was faithful to Gods message and to the truth of Jesus,Mimi ndugu yenu Johana here mufuasi wa Jesu Masihi ninashiriki hamwenga nanwi kahi za kuvumirira mateso gaapatago aryahu at'u mario kahi za uthawali wa Jesu Masihi Mimi nahirikwa kahi za kisiwa cha P'at'imokwa kukala were ninahubiri neno ra Mulungu na kumboza ushahidhi dzulu za Jesu Masihi
On the Lords Day the Spirit took control of me I heard a loud voice behind me that sounded like a trumpet,Mut'u mimi were ni kahi za Roho na siku iyo yere ni siku ya Bwana Bai nikisikira sauthi bomu here gunda ikinena ho nyuma zangu
It said Write down in a book what you see and send it to the seven churches to Ephesus Smyrna Pergamum Thyatira Sardis Philadelphia and Laodicea,ikiniamba Gaga ugaonago be gandhike kahi za chuwo na ugahirike kwa gago makanisa mafungahe garigo kahi za jimbo ra Asia Kanisa ra Efeso ra Simurina ra P'erigamo ra Thiyatira ra Saridi ra Filadelifia na ra Laodikia
I turned to see who was talking to me When I turned I saw seven golden lampstands,Bai nikigaluka nimulole ye ariyekala ananena nami ela lola nikiona viguzo vifungahe zha dhahabu zha kuikira mataa
I saw someone among the lampstands who looked like the Son of Man He was dressed in a long robe with a golden sash tied around his chest,Na kahikahi ya zho viguzo were hadzaima mut'u here Mwana wa Mudamu Were adzavala k'andzu iriyokala idzafika nyayoni na ukanda wa dhahabu uriwokala udzafungwa kathini mwakwe
His head and hair were white like woolwool that is white as snow His eyes were like flames of fire,Nyereze zere ni nyaruhe tse-tse-tse here sufi Matsoge gere ganaaka here moho
His feet were like brass that glows hot in a furnace His voice was like the noise of flooding water,Maguluge gere ganang'ala-ng'ala here ng'andu idziyoochwa gonya ikatsulwa Mumirowe were ni here mururumo wa madzi manji
He held seven stars in his right hand A sharp twoedged sword came out of his mouth He looked like the sun shining at its brightest time,Wakala adzagwirira nyenyezi fungahe kahi za mukonowe wa kurya Kanwani mwakwe muchombola mushu wa kurya kosi-kosi Usowe were unang'ala here dzuwa ra vitswani
When I saw him I fell down at his feet like a dead man He put his right hand on me and said Dont be afraid I am the First and the Last,Nirihomona nagwa maguluni hakwe nikikala here lufu Ela iye akigoloza mukonowe wa kurya akiwika dzulu zangu akinamba Usogohe mimi ndimi wa kwandza na wa mwisho
I am the one who lives I was dead but look I am alive forever and ever And I hold the keys of death and Hades,Mimi ndimi niishiye Nafwa ela lola vivi ni moyo hatha kare na kare Mimi nina funguo za kifwa na za kuzimu
So write what you see Write the things that happen now and the things that will happen later,Bai ndhika go maut'u udzigogaona na go garigoko vivi na go gandigokala badaye
Here is the hidden meaning of the seven stars that you saw in my right hand and the seven golden lampstands that you saw The seven lampstands are the seven churches The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches,Na ii be ndo mana ya yo siri ya zo nyenyezi fungahe na zho viguzo vifungahe zha mataa udzizhozhona kahi za mukono wangu wa kurya Zizo nyenyezi fungahe ni malaika a go makanisa mafungahe Zho viguzo vifungahe zha mataa ni go makanisa mafungahe
Write this to the angel of the church in Ephesus,Bai akienderera kunena akiamba Kwa malaika wa kanisa ra Efeso ndhika uambe
I know what you do how hard you work and never give up I know that you dont accept evil people You have tested those who say they are apostles but are not You found that they are liars,Ninamanya mahendo ga kwako Unahenda kazi kwa chadi na kuvumirira K'udima kuavumirira athiriri na hatha aryahu mariokudzadzihendya kukala ni ahumwi waapima na ukiamanya kukala ni alongo
You never stop trying You have endured troubles for my name and have not given up,Ninamanya unavumirira bila kutsoka idzaho unakut'a mashaka kwa ut'u wangu ela hatha vizho k'udzaremezwa
But I have this against you You have left the love you had in the beginning,Ela una kit'u kimwenga kiricho k'akinifwaha bule Garyahu mahendzo urigokala nago kwandza be k'unago kaheri
So remember where you were before you fell Change your hearts and do what you did at first If you dont change I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place,Hedu kumbukira ho urihokosera na uthubu uhende zho urizhokala ukihenda haho kwandza Ukikala k'undathubu ninadza nidze nichuse cho kiguzo cha kwako cha mataa kula haho hat'uhe kiriho
But there is something you do that is rightyou hate the things that the Nicolaitansdo I also hate what they do,Ela hatha vizho una ut'u umwenga udzo Uwe nawe udzamena kazi za o at'u mathuwao mafundisho ga Nikolaidza zho nidzizhozimena mimi
Everyone who hears this should listen to what the Spirit says to the churches To those who win the victory I will give the right to eat the fruit from the tree of life which is in Gods paradise,Ariye na masikiro naasikire maneno gaga arigo Roho anagambira makanisa Iye andiyeshinda nindamup'a ruhusa ya kurya matunda ga muhi wa uzima uriwo kahi za munda wa Mulungu kuko p'ehoni

Dont be afraid of what will happen to you I tell you the devil will put some of you in prison He will do this to test you You will suffer for ten days but be faithful even if you have to die If you continue to be faithful I will give you the rewardof life,Bai gago mateso garigo ga hehi na kumupata gasimwagoshe kamare Lolani bai Shethani andamujeza kwa kumuhendya mwangizwe jela nanwi mundateseka kwa muda wa siku kumi Ela kalani aaminifu hatha chamba ni kwalagwa lagwani nami nindakudzamup'a taji ya uzima
Everyone who hears this should listen to what the Spirit says to the churches Those who win the victory will not be hurt by the second death,Ariye na masikiro naasikire maneno gaga arigo Roho anagambira makanisa Iye andiyeshinda cho kifwa cha hiri k'akindamupata bule
Write this to the angel of the church in Pergamum,Kwa malaika wa kanisa ra P'erigamo ndhika uambe
I know where you live You live where Satan has his throne but you are true to me You did not refuse to tell about your faith in me even during the time of Antipas Antipas was my faithful witnesswho was killed in your city the city where Satan lives,Ninamanya kukala ho ukalaho ndo Shethani athawalaho Ela uwe udzaenderera kukala mwaminifu kwangu Na hatha wakathi Anitipasi shahidhi wangu mwaminifu ariholagwa kahi zenu kahi za mudzi ukalao Shethani kidza k'amunikanire
But I have a few things against you You have people there who follow the teaching of Balaam Balaam taught Balak how to make the people of Israel sin They sinned by eating food offered to idols and by committing sexual sins,Ela muna maut'u machache garigo k'aganifwaha Kahi zenu kuna angine mathuwao mafundisho ga Balamu Balamu wamufundisha Balaki aahege Aiziraeli kwa kuahendya marye chakurya kirichokala kidzambozerwa sadaka vizuka na pia makale azindzi
It is the same in your group You have people who follow the teaching of the Nicolaitans,Na ninwi nanwi muna at'u kahi zenu mathuwao mafundisho ga Nikolai
So change your hearts If you dont change I will come to you quickly and fight against these people with the sword that comes out of my mouth,H'aya thubuni kwani kala k'amundathubu nadza kare niapige ao mathuwao mafundisho mai na wo mushu umbolao kanwani mwangu
Everyone who hears this should listen to what the Spirit says to the churches,Ariye na masikiro naasikire maneno gaga arigo Roho anagambira makanisa Iye andiyeshinda nindamup'a Manairiyofitswa Kidza nindamup'a iwe raruhe tse rirondhikwa dzina risha Dzina riro k'ahana arimanyaye isihokala ye arigerwaye
Write this to the angel of the church in Thyatira,Kwa malaika wa kanisa ra Thiyatira ndhika uambe
I know what you do I know about your love your faith your service and your patience I know that you are doing more now than you did at first,Ninamanya mahendogo na mahendzogo Ninamanya kuluhiroro kuvumirira na kuhumika kwa kwako Ninamanya kukala zo kazizo uhendazo vivi be zidzakira ziryahu za kwandza urihonikuluhira
But I have this against you You let that woman Jezebel do what she wants She says that she is a prophetbut she is leading my people away with her teaching Jezebel leads my people to commit sexual sins and to eat food that is offered to idols,Ela una maut'u machache garigo k'aganifwaha Ye mwanamuche aifwaye Jezebeli ariye anadziha nabii unamuricha anaakenga at'u angu Unamuricha anaafundisha at'u angu uzindzi na kurya zhakurya vidzizhombozerwa sadaka vizuka
I have given her time to change her heart and turn away from her sin but she does not want to change,Namup'a wakathi athubu na ariche wo uzindzi wa kwakwe ela k'endzi bule
So I will throw her on a bed of suffering And all those who commit adultery with her will suffer greatly I will do this now if they dont turn away from the things she does,Lola nindamugwiza ukongo akale kitandani Na ao mazingao naye nao kala k'amandathubu gago maut'u mahendago naye nindaagwiza mashaka mabomu
I will also kill her followers Then all the churches will see that I am the one who knows what people feel and think And I will repay each of you for what you have done,Kidza o anafundzie nindaalaga na makanisa gosi gandamanya kukala mimi ndimi nimanyaye maazo na moyo wa kila mut'u Nami nindamuriha kila mut'u karakara na mahendoge
But others of you in Thyatira have not followed her teaching You have not learned the things they call Satans deep secrets This is what I say to you I will not put any other burden on you,Ela ninwi angine kuko Thiyatira murio k'amugakubali go mafundisho ga Jezebeli na murio k'amudzadzifundisha garyahu angine maambago ni siri ya Shethani ninamwamba kukala sindamuhika muzigo mungine
Only hold on to the truth you have until I come,Ela gwirani cho muricho nacho muchunye muhaka haho nindihokudza
I will give power over the nations to all those who win the victory and continue until the end to do what I want,Ao mandioshinda na kuenderera kuhenda here nihendzazho hatha mwisho nindakudzaap'a wadimi dzulu za k'olo
They will rule the nations with an iron rod They will break them to pieces like clay pots,Mandathawala k'olo zosi za at'u na ukali munji here dza viryahu mudhath'a wa chuma udimazho kubanda-banda nyungu
They will have the same power I received from my Father and I will give them the morning star,Here dza viryahu nirizhogerwa wadimi ni Baba mimi nami nindaap'a wadimi Kidza nindaap'a nyenyezi ya madzach'a
Everyone who hears this should listen to what the Spirit says to the churches,Ariye na masikiro naasikire gaga maneno arigo Roho anagambira makanisa

I know what you do You are not hot or cold I wish that you were hot or cold,Ninamanya mahendogo K'umoho na k'up'eho Be ni baha kala u moho hedu kala u p'eho
But you are only warmnot hot not cold So I am ready to spit you out of my mouth,Ela kwa kukala u kaloholoho k'up'eho na k'umoho nindakuhahika umbole mo kanwani mwangu
You say you are rich You think you have become wealthy and dont need anything But you dont know that you are really miserable pitiful poor blind and naked,Ati unaamba Ni mushaha nidzahenda vit'u hatha sina nitsowacho K'umanya ela una mashaka hatha unagwizisha mbazi Uwe u mukiya kidza u kipofu kidza u huhu
I advise you to buy gold from megold made pure in fire Then you will be rich I tell you this Buy clothes that are white Then you will be able to cover your shameful nakedness I also tell you to buy medicine to put on your eyes Then you will be able to see,Kwa vizho ninakuadha ugule vit'u vivi kula kwangu gula dhahabu mbidzo ya zosi iriyoochwa na moho ili ukale mushaha gula k'andzu nyaruhe ili uvale uziye waebu wa huhuro na muhaso wa matso ili wangize matsoni mwako uone
I correct and punish the people I love So show that nothing is more important to you than living right Change your hearts and lives,Osini niahendzao mimi nikuakanya na kuangiza akili Bai kala na chadi na uthubu
Here I am I stand at the door and knock If you hear my voice and open the door I will come in and eat with you And you will eat with me,Kwani lola niimire muryangoni ninabisha Kila andiyesikira sauthi yangu na kunivugulira nindangira mwakwe nyumbani nirye hamwenga naye na iye naye arye hamwenga nami
I will let everyone who wins the victory sit with me on my throne It was the same with me I won the victory and sat down with my Father on his throne,Iye andiyeshinda nindamup'a ruhusa ya kukeresi nami kahi za kihi changu cha endzi here mimi nirizhoshinda na vivi nikeresi na Baba kahi za kihiche cha endzi
Everyone who hears this should listen to what the Spirit says to the churches,Ariye na masikiro naasikire maneno gaga arigo Roho anagambira makanisa
Then I looked and there before me was an open door in heaven And I heard the same voice that spoke to me before It was the voice that sounded like a trumpet It said Come up here and I will show you what must happen after this,Bada ya vizho natsuha matso na lola nikiona muryango uriwokala u lwazu ko mulunguni Na wo mumiro here wa gunda niriwokala nidzausikira ho kwandza ukinamba Ndzo haha dzulu na nindakwanyesa zho ambazho ni lazima vithimire bada ya vivi
Immediately the Spirit took control of me and there in heaven was a throne with someone sitting on it,Na mara mwenga kare nikikala kahi za Roho na lola ko mulunguni kwere kuna kihi cha endzi na mut'u ariyekala adzakikeresiza
The one sitting there was as beautiful as precious stones like jasper and carnelian All around the throne was a rainbow with clear colors like an emerald,Ye mut'u were anang'ala-ng'ala here mawe ga th'amani na cho kihi cha endzi chere kidzadengerekwa ni kisiki cha vula kirichokala kinang'ala here iwe ra th'amani ra chani kitsi
In a circle around the throne were 24 other thrones with 24 elders sitting on them The elders were dressed in white and they had golden crowns on their heads,Pia cho kihi cha endzi were kidzadengerekwa ni vihi vingine zha endzi mirongo miri na vine Vihi vivi zhere vidzakelesirwa ni azhere mirongo miri na ane mariokala madzavala nguwo nyaruhe na taji za dhahabu
Lightning flashes and noises of thunder came from the throne Before the throne there were seven lamps burning which are the seven Spirits of God,Kwambola lumethe na sauthi na kigwaragwara kula kahi za cho kihi cha endzi Mbere za cho kihi cha endzi kwere kuna mataa mafungahe garigokala ganaaka Mataa gaga ni zo roho fungahe za Mulungu
Also before the throne there was something that looked like a sea of glass as clear as crystal,Kidza kwere kuna ut'u here bahari ya kilolo iriyokala inanyesa lwazu-lwazu Haho kahikahi kukidengereka cho kihi cha endzi kwere kuna zhumbe vine zha moyo virizhokala vi thele matso mbere na nyuma
The first living being was like a lion The second was like a bull The third had a face like a man The fourth was like a flying eagle,Chumbe cha kwandza were ni here simba Cha hiri were ni here kidzao cha ng'ombe Cha hahu were kina sura here ya binadamu na cha ne were ni here mwee abururukaye
Each of these four living beings had six wings They were covered all over with eyes inside and out Day and night they never stopped saying,Kahi za zho zhumbe vine kila chumbe were kina mahaha mahandahu na matso mwiri muzima Zhumbe vivi zhaimba usiku na mutsana bila kunyamala Zhaimba vikiamba
These living beings were giving glory and honor and thanks to the one who sits on the throne the one who lives forever and ever And every time they did this,Na wakathi wosi virihokala zho zhumbe vine vinamwimbira maira ga nguma na ishima na muvera ye ariyekala akelesi dzulu za cho kihi cha endzi aishiye kare na kare
the 24 elders bowed down before the one who sits on the throne They worshiped him who lives forever and ever They put their crowns down before the throne and said,o azhere mirongo miri na ane magwa mbere za ye ariyekala akelesi dzulu za cho kihi cha endzi makimuvoya ye aishiye tha kare na kare Matsuha ts'i taji zao mbere za cho kihi cha endzi na makiimba makiamba
Our Lord and God,Mulungu wehu uriye Bwana wehu
Then I saw a scroll in the right hand of the one sitting on the throne The scroll had writing on both sides and was kept closed with seven seals,Kidza nikiona chuwo kahi za mukono wa kurya wa iye ariyekala adzakelesi dzulu za cho kihi cha endzi Chuwokicho were chandhikwa ndani na ndze na were kidzafungwa na mihurimifungahe
And I saw a powerful angel who called in a loud voice Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll,Nikitsuha matso kaheri na nikiona malaika mwenye wadimi analuta mumirowe na kuamba Ni h'ani aviryaye kubanda yo mihuri na kukivugula cho chuwo
But there was no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth who could open the scroll or look inside it,Ela k'akumbolere yoyosi kula mulunguni hedu kula ts'i hedu kula ts'ini za ts'i ariyekala anadima kukivugula cho chuwo na kukishoma
I cried and cried because there was no one who was worthy to open the scroll or look inside,Kuona vizho narira zhomu kwa kukala k'ahana ariyeonekana kukala anavirya kuvugula cho chuwo hedu kukishoma
But one of the elders said to me Dont cry The Lionfrom the tribe of Judah has won the victory He is Davids descendant He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals,Gonya mumwenga wa o azhere akinena nami akiamba Usirire bule lola ye Simba wa mbari ya Juda Mudzungu wa Daudi adzashinda ili abande yo mihuri mifungahe na kuvugula cho chuwo
Then I saw a Lamb standing in the center near the throne with the four living beings around it The elders were also around the Lamb The Lamb looked as if it had been killed It had seven horns and seven eyes which are the seven spirits of God that were sent into all the world,Gonya nikiona Mwana Ng'ondzi aimire hehi na cho kihi cha endzi Naye were adzadengerekwa ni zho zhumbe vine zha moyo na o azhere Ye Mwana Ng'ondzi waonekana here adziyetsindzwa Were ana p'embe fungahe na matso mafungahe Gago matso mafungahe ni zo roho fungahe za Mulungu ambazo zahumwa urumwengu muzima
The Lamb came and took the scroll from the right hand of the one sitting on the throne,Bai ye Mwana Ng'ondzi achendahala cho chuwo kula kahi za mukono wa kurya wa ye arekala adzakelesi dzulu za cho kihi cha endzi
After the Lamb took the scroll the four living beings and the 24 elders bowed down before the Lamb Each one of them had a harp Also they were holding golden bowls full of incense which are the prayers of Gods holy people,Arihokihala zho zhumbe vine zha moyo na o azhere mirongo miri na ane magwa mbere za ye Mwana Ng'ondzi kuno kila mumwenga adzagwirira kinubiKila mumwenga were adzagwirira ludhuwa lwa dhahabu lurokala lu thele mavumba ga kufukizira Bai gago mavumba ni gago mavoyo ga at'u a Mulungu
And they all sang a new song to the Lamb,Kwa hamwenga maimba wira musha wenye uambao
You made them to be a kingdom and to be priests for our God,Nawe waahendya at'u ao mathawale hamwenga nawe
Then I looked and I heard the voices of many angels The angels were around the throne the four living beings and the elders There were thousands and thousands of angels10000 times 10000,Gonya nikilola kaheri Nikiona malaika anji sana hatha k'amathalika madzadengereka cho kihi cha endzi na o azhere na zho zhumbe Nikiasikira
The angels said in a loud voice,manaimba zhomu na kuamba
Then I heard every created being that is in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea everything in all these places saying,Na nikisikira kila chumbe mulunguni na ts'i na ts'ini ya ts'i na baharini na zhosi virizhokala mumo vikiimba vikiamba
The four living beings said Amen And the elders bowed down and worshiped,Na zho zhumbe vine zha moyo vikidzigidzya vikiamba H'aami Na o azhere makigwa makivoya
Then I watched as the Lamb opened the first of the seven seals Then I heard one of the four living beings speak with a voice like thunder It said Come,Gonya nikimona ye Mwana Ng'ondzi anavugula muhuri wa kwandza kahi za yo mihuri mifungahe Arihovugula nikisikira chumbe kimwenga kahi za zho zhumbe vine zha moyo kikinena kwa sauthi ya dzulu here kigwaragwara kikiamba Ndzo
I looked and there before me was a white horse The rider on the horse held a bow and was given a crown He rode out to defeat the enemy and win the victory,Nikitsuha matso nikiona farasi mwaruhe na mut'u ariyekala adzamupanda Na ye ariyekala anamuhirika were adzagwirira uha Akigerwa taji akimbola ko ndze here mushindi ili akashinde
The Lamb opened the second seal Then I heard the second living being say Come,Gonya ye Mwana Ng'ondzi akivugula wo muhuri wa hiri Nikisikira cho chumbe cha hiri cha moyo kikiamba Ndzo
Then another horse came out a red one The rider on the horse was given power to take away peace from the earth so that people would kill each other He was given a big sword,Hachambola farasi mungine Farasi yuyu were ni muthune do Ye muhirikiwe akigerwa mushu mubomu na wadimi wa kuusa dheri urumwenguni ili at'u malagane enye kwa enye
The Lamb opened the third seal Then I heard the third living being say Come I looked and there before me was a black horse The rider on the horse held a pair of scales in his hand,Gonya ye Mwana Ng'ondzi akivugula wo muhuri wa hahu Nikisikira cho chumbe cha hahu cha moyo kikiamba Ndzo Nikitsuha matso na lola hakikala hana farasi mwiru pi Ye muhirikiwe were adzagwirira mizani mo mukononi mwakwe
Then I heard something that sounded like a voice The voice came from where the four living beings were It said A quartof wheat or three quarts of barley will cost a full days pay But dont harm the supply of olive oil and wine,Nikisikira here sauthi iriyokala inambola kahikahi za zho zhumbe vine zha moyo ikiamba Kilo mwenga ya ngano kwa dinarimwenga na kilo t'ahu za shayirikwa dinari mwenga Ela mafuha na divai usizhanonge bule
The Lamb opened the fourth seal Then I heard the voice of the fourth living being say Come,Gonya ye Mwana Ng'ondzi akivugula wo muhuri wa ne Nikisikira cho chumbe cha ne cha moyo kikiamba Ndzo
I looked and there before me was a palecolored horse The rider on the horse was death and Hades was following close behind him They were given power over a fourth of the earthpower to kill people with the sword by starving by disease and with the wild animals of the earth,Nikitsuha matso nikiona farasi wa ivu-ivu Na ye muhirikiwe were anaifwa Kifwa na Kuzimu were anamuthuwa nyuma Makigerwa wadimi dzulu za robo ya wo urumwengu ili malage at'u kwa ngira ya viha ndzala mapigo ga makongo na nyama a tsakani
The Lamb opened the fifth seal Then I saw some souls under the altar They were the souls of those who had been killed because they were faithful to Gods message and to the truth they had received,Gonya ye Mwana Ng'ondzi akivugula wo muhuri wa tsano Nikiona kijaja cha kumbozera sadaka Na ts'ini za cho kijaja nikiona roho za o mariokala malagwa kwa ut'u wa neno ra Mulungu na wo ushuhuda mariwokala nawo
These souls shouted in a loud voice Holy and true Lord how long until you judge the people of the earth and punish them for killing us,Makinena kwa sauthi bomu makiamba H'ewe Bwana mueri na mujeri at'u a urumwengu mafwalaga vikara unaalolera hatha rini K'uahukumu ukaarihiza bai
Then each one of them was given a white robe They were told to wait a short time longer There were still some of their brothers and sisters in the service of Christ who must be killed as they were These souls were told to wait until all the killing was finished,Gonya kila mumwenga wao akigerwa k'andzu nyaruhe tse Makiambwa maoye matharize vichache muhaka namba ya aryahu ahumiki andziyao na ndugu zao mandiolagwa here ao ikamilike
Then I watched while the Lamb opened the sixth seal There was a great earthquake and the sun became as black as sackclothThe full moon became red like blood,Mwana Ng'ondzi arihovugula wo muhuri wa handahu natsuha matso Na lola ts'i ikithukuka zhomu na dzuwa rikikala pi here makala Mwezi ukigaluka muthune here milatso
The stars in the sky fell to the earth like a fig tree dropping its figs when the wind blows,Na nyenyezi nazo zikigwa ts'i dza viryahu mutini ubagarisazho t'ini upigwaho ni luvutho
The sky was split in the middle and both sides rolled up like a scroll And every mountain and island was moved from its place,Wo mulungu ukiuka here kitseka kikundzwacho na kila murima na kila kisiwa kikiuswa hat'uhe
Then all the peoplethe kings of the world the rulers the army commanders the rich people the powerful people every slave and every free personhid themselves in caves and behind the rocks on the mountains,Gonya o athawali a ts'i abomu na majemadari a viha mathajiri na enye wadimi atumwa na masokala atumwa na at'u angine osi makidzifitsa p'angani na ts'ini za mawe kuko mirimani
They said to the mountains and the rocks Fall on us Hide us from the face of the one who sits on the throne Hide us from the anger of the Lamb,Makiyiha yo mirima na go mawe makiamba Fugwerereni mufufitse kula kwa ye akelesiye dzulu za cho kihi cha endzi na kula kwa zo k'oro za ye Mwana Ng'ondzi
The great day for their anger has come No one can stand against it,kwa kukala siku bomu ya kwanyesa k'oro zao idzafika na ni h'ani bai adimaye kuipinga
After this happened I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth The angels were holding the four winds of the earth They were stopping the wind from blowing on the land or the sea or on any tree,Bada ya vivi naona malaika ane maungerere Kila mumwenga were aungerere kahi za p'embe mwenga ya dhunia Bai mahenda vizho ili mazulie zo p'eho ne za dhunia kwamba hasikale na p'eho indiyopiga ts'i hedu bahari hedu mihi
Then I saw another angel coming from the east This angel had the seal of the living God The angel called out in a loud voice to the four angels These were the four angels that God had given the power to hurt the earth and the sea The angel said to them,Gonya nikiona malaika mungine akidza kula mwambolero wa dzuwa na muhuri wa Mulungu ariye moyo Akiaiha zhomu o malaika ane mario Mulungu waap'a wadimi wa kunonga ts'i na bahari
Dont harm the land or the sea or the trees before we mark the foreheads of those who serve our God,Ye malaika akiambiriza akiamba Yo ts'i yo bahari na yo mihi musizhanonge kwandza muhaka o ahumiki a Mulungu wehu huangize muvano vidhanguni mwao
Then I heard how many people had Gods mark on their foreheads There were 144000 They were from every tribe of the people of Israel,Na nikisikira yo hesabu ya at'u mariovanwa na muhuri wa Mulungu vidhanguni mwao ni at'u alifu gana mwenga na mirongo mine na ne 144000 At'u aa mambola kahi za mbari zosi za ana a Iziraeli
Then I looked and there was a large crowd of people There were so many people that no one could count them all They were from every nation tribe race of people and language of the earth They were standing before the throne and before the Lamb They all wore white robes and had palm branches in their hands,Bada ya vivi natsuha matso na lola nikiona kundi bomu ra at'u mario k'amathalika At'u a kula kila taifa na kabila na kila ts'i na kidhyomo Were maungerere mbere za cho kihi cha endzi na mbere za ye Mwana Ng'ondzi At'u ao were madzavala k'andzu nyaruhe na were madzagwirira vitai zha mitende
They shouted loudly Victory belongs to our God who sits on the throne and to the Lamb,Makiluta mimiro yao zhomu makiamba Wokolwi ula kwa Mulungu wehu ye akelesiye dzulu za cho kihi cha endzi na kula kwa ye Mwana Ng'ondzi
The elders and the four living beings were there All the angels were standing around them and the throne The angels bowed down on their faces before the throne and worshiped God,Na malaika osi makiungarara kudengereka cho kihi cha endzi na o azhere na zho zhumbe vine zha moyo Gonya makidzigwaga na moyo mbere za cho kihi cha endzi na makimuvoya Mulungu
They said Amen Praise glory wisdom thanks honor power and strength belong to our God forever and ever Amen,Makiamba H'aami Kuhaswa nguma na ulachu na muvera na ishima na nguvu na wadimi vina Mulungu wehu hatha kare na kare H'aami
Then one of the elders asked me Who are these people in white robes Where did they come from,Gonya mumwenga wa o azhere akinuza akiamba Ni ano h'ani ano madziovala k'andzu nyaruhe na manaombolahi
I answered You know who they are sir And the elder said These are the ones who have come out of the great suffering They have washed their robes with the blood of the Lamb and they are clean and white,Nikimudzigidzya nikimwamba Uwe ndiwe umanyaye bwana Akiamba Aa be ni at'u madziombola kahi za mashaka mabomu Madzafula k'andzu zao kahi za milatso ya iye Mwana Ng'ondzi makazihendya nyaruhe tse
So now these people are before the throne of God They worship God day and night in his temple And the one who sits on the throne will protect them,Ndosa maimire mbere ya kihi cha endzi cha Mulungu mamuhumikire usiku na mutsana kahi za Hekalure Ye akelesiye dzulu za cho kihi cha endzi andakala hamwenga nao aarinde
They will never be hungry again They will never be thirsty again The sun will not hurt them No heat will burn them,K'amandasikira ndzala hedu k'ihu kaheri K'amandaochwa ni dzuwa hedu theri kali
The Lamb in front of the throne will be their shepherd He will lead them to springs of water that give life And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes,Kwa kukala ye Mwana Ng'ondzi ariye kahikahi za cho kihi cha endzi andakala murisa wao na andaalongoza kwenda ko kwenye matso ga madzi ga uzima Na Mulungu andaafuta matsozi gao gosi
The Lamb opened the seventh seal Then there was silence in heaven for about half an hour,Vikara Mwana Ng'ondzi arihovugula wo muhuri wa fungahe kwanyamala zii ko mulunguni kwa muda wa nusu saa
And I saw the seven angels who stand before God They were given seven trumpets,Gonya nikiona o malaika afungahe maimao mbere za Mulungu makigerwa magunda mafungahe
Another angel came and stood at the altar This angel had a golden holder for incense The angel was given much incense to offer with the prayers of all Gods holy people The angel put this offering on the golden altar before the throne,Hakidza malaika mungine akidzaima ho kijajani Malaika yuyu were adzagwirira ludhuwa lwa mavumba Ludhuwa lulu lwere lwatengezwa na dhahabu Akigerwa mavumba manji angezeze go mavoyo ga at'u osi a Mulungu dzulu za cho kijaja cha dhahabu mbere za cho kihi cha endzi
The smoke from the incense went up from the angels hand to God The smoke went up with the prayers of Gods people,Na wo mosi wa go mavumba uchambola mikononi mwa ye malaika uchenda dzulu mbere za Mulungu hamwenga na go mavoyo ga at'u a Mulungu
Then the angel filled the incense holder with fire from the altar and threw it down on the earth Then there were flashes of lightning thunder and other noises and an earthquake,Gonya ye malaika akihala lo ludhuwa lwa mavumba akiludzaza moho kula ho kijajani gonya akilutsuha dhuniani Kukikala na kigwaragwara na sauthi na lumethe na ts'i ikithukuka
Then the seven angels with the seven trumpets prepared to blow their trumpets,Gonya o malaika afungahe mariokala na magunda makidzika thayari kugapiga
The first angel blew his trumpet Then hail and fire mixed with blood was poured down on the earth And a third of the earth and all the green grass and a third of the trees were burned up,Malaika wa kwandza akipiga gundare Vula ya mawe na moho urotsanganyikana na milatso vikimwagika dzulu za ts'i Luhande lumwenga lwa ts'i na lwa mihi na lwa nyasi mbitsi vikisha
The second angel blew his trumpet Then something that looked like a big mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea And a third of the sea became blood,Gonya malaika wa hiri akipiga gundare naye Ut'u here murima mubomu uakao moho wagwa baharini Luhande lumwenga lwa bahari lukigaluka milatso
And a third of the created beings in the sea died and a third of the ships were destroyed,Zhumbe zha moyo virizhokala luhande lulo lwa bahari vikifwa Na meli zosi zirizokala luhande lulo zikinongwa-nongwa
The third angel blew his trumpet Then a large star burning like a torch fell from the sky It fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water,Malaika wa hahu akipiga gundare Nyenyezi bomu iakayo here mui ikigwa dzulu za luhande lumwenga lwa miho na matso ga madzi
The name of the star was BitternessAnd a third of all the water became bitter Many people died from drinking this bitter water,Dzina ra yo nyenyezi ni Utsungu Madzi garigokala luhande lulo gakikala utsungu na at'u anji mafwa kwa kunwa go madzi kwani were gadzagaluka utsungu
The fourth angel blew his trumpet Then a third of the sun and a third of the moon and a third of the stars were struck So a third of them became dark A third of the day and night was without light,Gonya malaika wa ne akipiga gundare Luhande lumwengalwa dzuwa na mwezi na nyenyezi vikipigwa ili vikatsang'ala K'akukalire na mulangaza muda wa masaa mane usiku na mutsana
While I watched I heard an eagle that was flying high in the air The eagle said in a loud voice Terrible Terrible How terrible for those who live on the earth The terrible trouble will begin after the sounds of the trumpets that the other three angels will blow,Gonya nikiona na nikisikira mwee ariyekala akibururuka dzulu mulunguni akipiga londzo akiamba O malaika ahahu mario k'amadzangwe kupiga magunda gao vivi be makili kugapiga Be haho makigapiga o at'u maishio dhuniani mandagamanya enye kisha mandagamanya enye sana
The fifth angel blew his trumpet Then I saw a star fall from the sky to the earth The star was given the key to the deep hole that leads down to the bottomless pit,Gonya ye malaika wa tsano akipiga gundare Na lola nikiona nyenyezi iriyokala idzagwa kula mulunguni nayo ikigerwa funguo ya kusundula wo muryango wa ridzina risiro mwisho
Then the star opened the hole leading to the pit Smoke came up from the hole like smoke from a big furnace The sun and sky became dark because of the smoke from the hole,Bai irihosundula ro ridzina risiro mwisho lola hachambola mosi here wa ts'andzala Mosi uu were u gigigi hatha ukihendya dzuwa na uwo mulungu vikale gigigi kiza
Then locusts came out of the smoke and went down to the earth They were given the power to sting like scorpions,Mumo mosini muchambola kw'eth'eth'e makidza dhuniani na makigerwa wadimi wa kupasha dza viryahu zha mah'ambini
They were told not to damage the fields of grass or any plant or tree They were to hurt only those who did not have Gods mark on their foreheads,Makiambwa masilumize nyasi hedu mihi hedu mimera yoyosi ela makanonge aryahu at'u mario k'amana muvano wa Mulungu mo vidhanguni mwao
They were not given the power to kill them but only to cause them pain for five monthspain like a person feels when stung by a scorpion,Makigerwa ruhusa ya kuatesa kwa miezi mitsano ela masialage Na go mateso gao were ni here kwakakwa kwa kupashwa ni h'ambini
During those days people will look for a way to die but they will not find it They will want to die but death will hide from them,Na nyakathi zizo at'u mandamala kifwa ela k'amandachona bule Mandathamani kufwa ela cho kifwa kindaachimbira
The locusts looked like horses prepared for battle On their heads they wore something that looked like a gold crown Their faces looked like human faces,Kw'eth'eth'e aa were ni here farasi mario thayari kwenda vihani Vitswani mwao were mavikwa ut'u here virauni zha dhahabu na mabushu gao were ni here ga binadamu
Their hair was like womens hair Their teeth were like lions teeth,Nyere zao were ni here za ache Meno gao were ni here ga simba
Their chests looked like iron breastplates The sound their wings made was like the noise of many horses and chariots hurrying into battle,H'aya zho mbai bai kw'eth'eth'e ao were mana makoko here ngao za chuma Na lulo londzo lwa mahaha gao were ni here londzo lwa magari ga farasi gahirikwago malo kwenda vihani
The locusts had tails with stingers like scorpions The power they had to give people pain for five months was in their tails,Kidza were mana mikira ya kupasha here ya h'ambini na yo mikira yao ndo iriyo na wadimi wa kulumiza anadamu kwa wo muda wa miezi mitsano
They had a ruler who was the angel of the bottomless pit His name in Hebrew is AbaddonIn Greek it is Apollyon,Kidza were mana muthawali wao Muthawali yuyu were nde malaika aimiriraye ro ridzina risiro mwisho Na kwa Kieburania were anaifwa Abadoni na Kiyunani anaifwa Apolioni Mana ya madzina gaga kahi za zizo luga mbiri ni Mwanongi
The first terror is now past There are still two other terrors to come,H'aya mashaka ga kwandza gadzagoma kukira lola kuchere na mangine ga k'ana mbiri garigo ganadza
The sixth angel blew his trumpet Then I heard a voice coming from the horns on the four corners of the golden altar that is before God,Gonya ye malaika wa handahu akipiga gundare Nikisikira sauthi kumbola kwa zo p'embe ne za cho kijaja cha kumbozera sadaka cha dhahabu kiricho mbere za Mulungu
It said to the sixth angel who had the trumpet Free the four angels who are tied at the great river Euphrates,Bai yo sauthi ikimwamba ye malaika wa handahu ariyekala ana riro gunda akiamba Arichire o malaika ane mariofungwa kwenye muho mubomu wa Yufurati
These four angels had been kept ready for this hour and day and month and year The angels were set free to kill a third of all the people on the earth,Ndo ao malaika ane mariokala madzaikwa thayari kwa mwaka uwo mwezi siku na saa iryahu makirichirwa malage sehemu mwengaya o anadamu
I heard how many troops on horses were in their army There were 200000000,Bai kukidza majeshi garigokala gadzapanda farasi Nichambirizwa kukala namba ya go majeshi were ni milioni magana mairi
In my vision I saw the horses and the riders on the horses They looked like this They had breastplates that were fiery red dark blue and yellow like sulfur The heads of the horses looked like heads of lions The horses had fire smoke and sulfur coming out of their mouths,Na vizho ndizho nirizhoona kahi za go maono ga kwangu Ao ahiriki mere madzavala ngao mo makathini mwao Ngao zizi were ni th'une here moho na buluu here bahari na manjano here maji ga zhape Vitswa zha o farasi were ni here zha simba Na mumo makanwani mwao mwambola moho na mosi wa baruthi
A third of all the people on earth were killed by these three plagues coming out of the horses mouths the fire the smoke and the sulfur,Sehemu mwengaya anadamu malagwa ni wo moho na wo mosi na wo unga wa baruthi Mapigo gago mahahu were ganambola kanwani mwa o farasi
The horses power was in their mouths and also in their tails Their tails were like snakes that have heads to bite and hurt people,Wadimi wa o farasi u mo makanwani mwao na mo mikirani mwao Mikira yao ni here nyoka enye vitswa na manaihumira kulumizira at'u
The other people on earth were not killed by these plagues But these people still did not change their hearts and turn away from worshiping the things they had made with their own hands They did not stop worshiping demons and idols made of gold silver bronze stone and woodthings that cannot see or hear or walk,Vikara aryahu anadamu mario k'amalagirwe ni gago mapigo makahala kuthubu vizho Makahala kuricha kuhasa vit'u marizhovitengeza na mikono yao enye Makienderera kuhasa p'ep'o na vizuka zha dhahabu na zha fedha na zha ng'andu na zha mawe na zha mihi Vit'u virizho k'aviona k'avisikira na k'avinenda
They did not change their hearts and turn away from killing other people or from their evil magic their sexual sins and their stealing,H'aya zho mbai bai at'u aa makahala kuricha kwalaga utsai uzindzi na wivi
Then I was given a measuring rod as long as a walking stick I was told Go and measure the templeof God and the altar and count the people worshiping there,Bai nagerwa mudhath'a wa kupimira gonya nikiambwa Enda ukaripime ro Hekalu ra Mulungu na cho kijaja cha kumbozera sadaka na uthale o at'u mavoyao mumo
But dont measure the yard outside the temple Leave it alone It has been given to those who are not Gods people They will show their power over the holy city for 42 months,Ela wo muhala uriwo ndze ya ro Hekalu usiupime bule kwa kukala uwo wagerwa at'u mario si Ayahudi Nao mandauzhoga-zhoga wo mudzi mueri wa Jerusalemu kwa muda wa miezi mirongo mine na miri siku 1260
And I will give power to my two witnesses And they will prophesy for 1260 days They will be dressed in sackcloth,Na nindaap'a wadimi mashahidhi angu airi nao mandamboza unabii kwa muda uwo wa siku alifu mwenga na magana mairi na mirongo mihandahu 1260 Mashahidhi ao mandakala madzavala magunia
These two witnesses are the two olive trees and the two lampstands that stand before the Lord of the earth,Na mashahidhi aa airi ni yo mihi miri ya mizeituni na zho viguzo viri zha kuikira mataa viimirezho mbere za Bwana wa dhunia ndzima
If anyone tries to hurt the witnesses fire comes from the mouths of the witnesses and kills their enemies Anyone who tries to hurt them will die like this,Na mo makanwani mwao munambola moho Na kila hadhui ajezaye kuahenda mai moho uwo nikumbola mo makanwani mwao na kumuocha tse-tse-tse Vizho ndo at'u osi mandiojeza kuahenda mai mandizhofwa
These witnesses have the power to stop the sky from raining during the time they are prophesying These witnesses have power to make the water become blood They have power to send every kind of plague to the earth They can do this as many times as they want,Ao mana wadimi wa kugwira vula isinye wakathi wa kumboza unabii wao Kidza mana wadimi wa kugagaluza madzi kukala milatso na kureha mapigo ga kila aina haha ts'i here mahendzazho
When the two witnesses have finished telling their message the beast will fight against them This is the beast that comes up from the bottomless pit It will defeat and kill them,Na mandihogonya kumboza ushahidhi wao kundambola rinyama kula ridzina risiro mwisho Rinyama riri rindagwaga k'ondo nao Rindaheha nao na rindaadhima rialage
The bodies of the two witnesses will lie in the street of the great city This city is named Sodom and Egypt These names for the city have a special meaning This is the city where the Lord was killed,Na miri yao indagwagwa kahi za ngira bomu za mudzi mubomu ambako ndo arikosulubiwa Bwana wao Na mudzi uwo kimafumbo unaifwa Sodomu na Misiri
People from every race of people tribe language and nation will look at the bodies of the two witnesses for three and a half days The people will refuse to bury them,Miri iyo indalolwa kwa muda wa siku t'ahu na nusu ni at'u a kila ts'i na kabila na kila kidhyomo na taifa k'amandaruhusu ikazikwe bule
Everyone on the earth will be happy because these two are dead They will have parties and send each other gifts They will do this because these two prophets brought much suffering to the people living on earth,Na o matoao dhuniani mandaererwa kwa ut'u wa zho vifwa zha aa manabii airi Mandasherehekea na magerane zawadi kwa kukala manabii aa airi maasirinya sana at'u matoao dhuniani
But after three and a half days God let life enter the two witnesses again They stood on their feet All those who saw them were filled with fear,Ela bada ya zizo siku t'ahu na nusu Mulungu akiavivira muhuyewe wa uzima na makirungarara kaheri Bai aryahu marioaona na matso gao mangirwa ni woga sana
Then the two witnesses heard a loud voice from heaven say Come up here And both of them went up into heaven in a cloud Their enemies watched them go,Gonya kuchambola sauthi bomu kula mulunguni ikiambiriza Ndzoni kuno dzulu Bai makihalwa ni ingu machenda mulunguni kuno mahadhui ao manalola
At that same time there was a great earthquake A tenth of the city was destroyed And 7000 people were killed in the earthquake Those who did not die were very afraid They gave glory to the God of heaven,Na wakathi uwo wenye ts'i ikithukuka ut'u wa kwangalaza Sehemu mwenga ya sehemu kumi za wo mudzi yagwa na ikilaga at'u alifu fungahe O at'u mariothia mangirwa ni woga na makimup'a nguma Mulungu ariye dzulu mulunguni
The second terror is now past The third terror is coming soon,K'uzhona zho pigo ra hiri rikikala ridzakira ela lola ro ra hahu be rinadza vikara zhenye
The seventh angel blew his trumpet Then there were loud voices in heaven The voices said,Gonya ye malaika wa fungahe akipiga gundare Nikisikira sauthi bomu ko mulunguni zikinena zikiamba
Then the 24 elders bowed down on their faces and worshiped God These are the elders who sit on their thrones before God,Na o azhere mirongo miri na ane makeresio dzulu ya vihi zhao zha endzi mbere za Mulungu madzigwaga na moyo makimuvoya Mulungu
The elders said,Makiamba
The people of the world were angry,At'u mario si Ayahudi mana k'oro
Then Gods temple in heaven was opened The Box of the Agreementcould be seen in his temple Then there were flashes of lightning noises thunder an earthquake and a great hailstorm,Gonya ro Hekalu ra Mulungu kuko mulunguni rikivugulwa na ro Sanduku ra Kilagane rikionewa mumo Kidza kukikala na lumethe na sauthi na kigwaragwara Ts'i ikithukuka na kukinya vula nyinji ya mawe
And then a great wonder appeared in heaven There was a woman who was clothed with the sun and the moon was under her feet She had a crown of twelve stars on her head,Gonya kuko dzulu kuchambola ut'u wa ajabu Kwere kuna mwanamuche ariyekala adzavikwa dzuwa na wo mwezi were u ts'ini za maguluge Kidza were adzavikwa taji ya nyenyezi kumi na mbiri kitswani mwakwe
She was pregnant and cried out with pain because she was about to give birth,Mwanamuche yuyu were adzafikirwa na were a hehi na kudzivugula Be wo utsungu wa mazhazi wamuhendya arire
Then another wonder appeared in heaven There was a giant red dragon there The dragon had seven heads with a crown on each head It also had ten horns,Kidza kuko dzulu kuchambola ut'u ungine wa ajabu Lola were hana ridzoka rithune renye vitswa vifungahe na p'embe kumi Na kila kitswa were kidzavikwa kirauni
Its tail swept a third of the stars out of the sky and threw them down to the earth It stood in front of the woman who was ready to give birth to the baby It wanted to eat the womans baby as soon as it was born,Rikishera sehemu mwengaya zo nyenyezi na uwo mukirawe na rikizitsuha ts'i Rikiima mbere za ye mwanamuche ili akidzivugula thu rimumize ye mwana
The woman gave birth to a son who would rule all the nations with an iron rod And her child was taken up to God and to his throne,Bai ye mwanamuche akidzivugula mwana mulume ariye nde andethawala makabila gosi ga at'u na ukali munjiEla ye mwana akihalwa mara mwenga muhaka dzulu kwa Mulungu kahi za kihiche cha endzi
The woman ran away into the desert to a place that God had prepared for her There she would be taken care of for 1260 days,Na ye mwanamuche akichimbirira nyika Kuko ndiko kurikokala kwathayarishwa ni Mulungu ili adime kutsundzwa kwa muda wa siku alifu mwenga na magana mairi na mirongo mihandahu 1260
Then there was a war in heaven Michaeland his angels fought against the dragon The dragon and its angels fought back,Gonya kukigwa k'ondo kuko mulunguni Mikaeli malaika mubomu na malaika andziye makipigana na riro ridzoka na o malaikae
but they were not strong enough The dragon and its angels lost their place in heaven,Ela riro ridzoka na o malaikae makishindwa na kuko mulunguni k'amakalire na hat'u ha kukala kaheri
It was thrown down out of heaven This giant dragon is that old snake the one called the devil or Satan who leads the whole world into the wrong way The dragon and its angels were thrown to the earth,Ridzoka riro ratsufwa ts'i Na riro nde iye nyoka wa kapindi aifwaye Ibilisi hedu Shethani aukengaye urumwengu wosi Bai ratsufwa ts'i hamwenga na o malaikae
Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say The victory and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Messiah have now come These things have come because the accuser of our brothers and sisters has been thrown out He is the one who accused them day and night before our God,Gonya kuko mulunguni kuchambola sauthi bomu ikiamba Vivi be Mulungu andathawala andaaokola at'ue Na iye Masihiwe andahumira wadimiwe kuthawala dzulu za urumwengu kwa kukala iye aimaye mbere za Mulungu kuashithaki ndugu zehu usiku na mutsana vivi be wakuingwa kuko mulunguni
They defeated him by the blood sacrifice of the Lamb and by the message of God that they told people They did not love their lives too much They were not afraid of death,Na kwa kukirira na milatso ya iye Mwana Ng'ondzi na kwa ushuhuda wao mamushinda Shethani mana were ma thayari hatha kufwa kwa ut'u wa Jesu
So rejoice you heavens and all who live there But it will be terrible for the earth and sea because the devil has gone down to you He is filled with anger He knows he doesnt have much time,Kwa vizho kalani na raha nwi mutoao kuko mulunguni Ela ninwi mutoao dzulu za ts'i na ninwi a baharinibe mundasirima Mana Shethani adzatsufwa kuko ts'i mukalako na atsukirwe sana kwani anamanya kukala k'ana wakathi kaheri
The dragon saw that he had been thrown down to the earth So he chased the woman who had given birth to the child,Vikara riro ridzoka ririhoona kukala ridzatsufwa ts'i ramuinga ye mwanamuche ariyekala adzadzivugula muthana
But the woman was given the two wings of a great eagle Then she could fly to the place that was prepared for her in the desert There she would be taken care of for three and a half years There she would be away from the dragon,Ela Mulungu akimugera ye mwanamuche mahaha mairi ga mwee mubomu ili abururuke achimbirire nyika Kuko ndiko ariko were andatsundzwa kula kwa riro ridzoka kwa muda wa miaka mihahu na nusu
Then the dragon poured water out of its mouth like a river It poured the water toward the woman so that the flood would carry her away,Riro ridzoka rikihahika madzi manji here muho nyuma ya iye mwanamuche ili gamuhale
But the earth helped the woman The earth opened its mouth and swallowed the river that came from the mouth of the dragon,Ela ts'i ikimwaviza ye mwanamuche Ichamoka wina mubomu sana na go madzi gosi garigokala gadzahahikwa ni ro ridzoka gakimizwa mumo winani
Then the dragon was very angry with the woman It went away to make war against all her other children Her children are those who obey Gods commands and have the truth that Jesus taught,Lola riro ridzoka ratsukirwa sana kwa ut'u wa iye mwanamuche Richendapigana na o at'u a lukolo lwa ye mwanamuche mariokala madzasala At'u aa ni aryahu mazigwirao amuri za Mulungu na mana ushuhuda wa Jesu Masihi
The dragon stood on the seashore,Bai riro ridzoka rikiima k'anda-k'anda za bahari
Then I saw a beast coming up out of the sea It had ten horns and seven heads There was a crown on each of its horns It had an evil name written on each head,Gonya nikiona rinyama rinambola baharini Naro were rina vitswa vifungahe na p'embe kumi Kila lupembe were ludzavikwa kirauni na dzulu za kila kitswa were hana dzina ra kumukufuru Mulungu
This beast looked like a leopard with feet like a bears feet It had a mouth like a lions mouth The dragon gave the beast all of its power and its throne and great authority,Na riro rinyama nirirorona were ni here ts'uwi Maguluge were gana mikombe here dubu Mulomowe were ni here wa simba Riro ridzoka rikirip'a riro rinyama nguvu na kihi cha kwakwe cha endzi na wadimi mubomu
One of the heads of the beast looked as if it had been wounded and killed but the death wound was healed All the people in the world were amazed and they all followed the beast,Kitswa kimwenga cha zho vitswa vifungahe zha ro rinyama were kina kironda kiricho were ni here kindaralaga ela kironda kicho kikihola na urumwengu ukimashwa ni riro rinyama na ukimuthuwa
People worshiped the dragon because it had given its power to the beast and they also worshiped the beast They asked Who is as powerful as the beast Who can make war against it,Kwa kukala ro ridzoka were ridzalazha wadimi kwa ro rinyama at'u makirivoya na kidza makivoya hatha ro rinyama kuno manaamba K'ahana mwenye wadimi dza riro rinyama na ni h'ani adimaye kupigana naro
The beast was allowed to boast and speak insults against God It was allowed to use its power for 42 months,Na ro rinyama rikigerwa ruhusa ya kudzionya na kumukufuru Mulungu kidza rikigerwa wadimi wa kuthawala kwa muda wa miezi mirongo mine na miri
The beast opened its mouth to insult Godto insult his name the place where he lives and all those who live in heaven,Bai ro rinyama rikiandza kumukufuru Mulungu rikikufuru dzinare rikikufuru ko mulunguni akalako Mulungu hamwenga na osi makalao kuko
It was given power to make war against Gods holy people and to defeat them It was given power over every tribe race of people language and nation,Kidza rikigerwa ruhusa ya kupigana na kuadhima at'u a Mulungu na rikigerwa wadimi dzulu za kila kabila na ts'i kidhyomo na taifa
Everyone living on earth would worship the beast These are all the people since the beginning of the world whose names are not written in the Lambs book of life The Lamb is the one who was killed,Na at'u osi mario madzina gao k'agandhikirwe kahi za kithabu cha uzima cha ye Mwana Ng'ondzi ariyelagwa kabila urumwengu k'audzaumbwa mandarivoya ro rinyama
Anyone who hears these things should listen to this,Bai mut'u ariye na masikiro naasikire
Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth He had two horns like a lamb but he talked like a dragon,Gonya nikiona rinyama ringine kaheri rinatsumbuka kula ts'i Rinyama riri were rina p'embe mbiri here za mwana ng'ondzi na were rinanena here ridzoka
This beast stood before the first beast and used the same power the first beast had He used this power to make everyone living on the earth worship the first beast The first beast was the one that had the death wound that was healed,Rinyama riro rahumira wadimi wosi wa ro rinyama ra kwandza Na rauhumira mbere za riro rinyama riro Raihendya yo dhunia yosi na osini matoao mumo marivoye riro rinyama ra kwandza ririrokala na kironda cha kwalaga na kikihola
The second beast did great miraclesHe even made fire come down from heaven to earth while people were watching,Rinyama riri rahenda maajabu mabomu sana hatha rahendya moho uthime ts'i kumbola mulunguni kamare kuno at'u manalola
This second beast fooled the people living on earth by using the miracles that he had been given the power to do for the first beast He ordered people to make an idol to honor the first beast the one that was wounded by the sword but did not die,Na kwa ut'u uu wa kuruhusiwa kuhenda maajabu mbere za ro rinyama ra kwandza raakenga o at'u osi matoao urumwenguni Raambira o at'u a urumwengu marihendere kizuka ro rinyama ra kwandza ririropata ranga ra mushu kidza rikienderera kuishi
The second beast was given power to give life to the idol of the first beast Then the idol could speak and order all those who did not worship it to be killed,Ro rinyama rikigerwa ruhusa ya kukivivira muhuye wa uzima cho kizuka ili kidime kunena na kiahendye at'u osi mandiokahala kukivoya cho kizuka cha riro rinyama ra kwandza malagwe
The second beast also forced all people small and great rich and poor free and slave to have a mark put on their right hand or on their forehead,Kidza rikiahendya at'u osi hariho anyonge na enye nguvu ashaha na akiya atumwa na at'u mario si atumwa mangizwe muvano vidhanguni mwao hedu dzulu za mikono yao ya kurya
No one could buy or sell without this mark This mark is the name of the beast or the number of its name,Vivi vindahenda mut'u akale k'adima kugula hedu kuguza kit'u bila kukala na uwo muvano uwo Muvano uwo ni ro dzina ra ro rinyama hedu namba iimayo hat'u ha ro dzinare
Anyone who has understanding can find the meaning of the beasts number This requires wisdom This number is the number of a man It is 666,Bai vivi vinahendza ulachu Mut'u ariye ni mulachu naang'alirwe ni mana ya namba ii kwani ni namba ya kibinadamu Namba ii ni 666
Then I looked and there before me was the Lamb who was standing on Mount ZionThere were 144000 people with him They all had his name and his Fathers name written on their foreheads,Gonya nikitsuha matso na lola were hana Mwana Ng'ondzi aungerere haho dzulu za Murima wa Sayuni Naye were a hamwenga na kundi ra at'u alifu gana mwenga na mirongo mine na ne 144000 At'u aa makala madzandhikwa madzina mairi mumo vidhanguni mwao Dzina ra Mwana Ng'ondzi na dzina ra babaye iye Mwana Ng'ondzi
And I heard a sound from heaven as loud as the crashing of floodwaters or claps of thunder But it sounded like harpists playing their harps,Na nikisikira sauthi here ya mwamba wa baharini na here kigwaragwara cha londzo kula mulunguni Kidza sauthi iyo niriyoisikira were ni here sauthi za at'u mapigao vinubi
The people sang a new song before the throne and before the four living beings and the elders The only ones who could learn the new song were the 144000 who had been bought from the earth No one else could learn it,Na at'u osi alifu gana mwenga na mirongo mine na ne 144000 makiimba wira musha wenye mbere za cho kihi cha endzi na mbere za zho zhumbe vine zha moyo na mbere za o azhere Wira uu were k'ahana mut'u adimaye kuugwira isihokala ao at'u maalifu mariokala magulwa kula dhuniani
These are the ones who did not do sinful things with women They kept themselves pure Now they follow the Lamb wherever he goes They were bought from among the people of the earth as the first to be offered to God and the Lamb,At'u aa ni aryahu mamuthuwao ye Mwana Ng'ondzi kokosi endako Mana maishani mwao k'amadzangizire nyenye kwa kulala na mwanamuche yoyosiBai at'u aa magulwa kula kahi za adamu na makilazhwa kwa Mulungu na kwa ye Mwana Ng'ondzi dza here malumbuko
They are not guilty of telling lies they are without fault,At'u aa were k'amadzanena ulongo na were k'amana makosa gogosi
Then I saw another angel flying high in the air The angel had the eternal Good News to announce to the people living on earthto every nation tribe language and race of people,Gonya nikiona malaika anabururuka dzulu mulunguni na were ana Uvoro Udzo wa kare na kare kuambiriza at'u osini matoao haha dhuniani at'u a kila taifa kila kabila kila kidhyomo na kila ts'i
The angel said in a loud voice Fear God and give him praise The time has come for God to judge all people Worship God He made the heavens the earth the sea and the springs of water,Bai akinena zhomu akiamba Wakathi wa kumuhukumu mudamu udzafika Kwa vizho mup'eni nguma Mulungu kidza muheshimuni Muvoyeni iye ariyeumba mulunguni na ts'i na bahari na matso gosi ga madzi
Then the second angel followed the first angel and said She is destroyed The great city of Babylon is destroyed She made all the nations drink the wine of her sexual sin and of Gods anger,Bai ye malaika arihoziwiwa hambola malaika mungine mwenye akiamba Udzagwa Mudzi mubomu wa Babiloni udzagwa Mudzi uriwohenda urumwengu muzima unwe divai ya mathuruthuru ga uzindzi wa kwakwe udzagwa
A third angel followed the first two angels This third angel said in a loud voice God will punish all those who worship the beast and the beasts idol and agree to have the beasts mark on their forehead or on their hand,Bada ya iye kuchambola malaika wa hahu akiluta mumiro kuathuwa o airi a kwandza akiamba Mut'u yoyosi andiyerivoya ro rinyama na cho kizukache na kwangizwa muvano ho kidhanguni hedu mukononi hakwe
They will drink the wine of Gods anger This wine is prepared with all its strength in the cup of Gods anger They will be tortured with burning sulfur before the holy angels and the Lamb,andaadhibiwa ni Mulungu Vizho be vindakala ni here divai k'ali ambayo iye Mulungu mwenye ndiye adziyeitsoha kahi za kikombe Bai Mulungu andaatesa at'u aa kwa moho wa baruthi mbere za malaika aeri na mbere za iye Mwana Ng'ondzi
And the smoke from their burning pain will rise forever and ever There will be no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and its idol or who wear the mark of its name,Hat'u haho k'ahana kuoya kwa ao marivoyao riro rinyama na cho kizukache na yoyosi ariye na muvano wa dzinare Kwani wo mosi wa moho uatesao unaenderera kukwera dzulu hatha kare na kare
This means that Gods holy people must be patient They must obey Gods commands and keep their faith in Jesus,Ndo at'u a Mulungu mazithuwao amuri za kwakwe na mamukuluhirao Jesu manavirya maenderere kuvumirira
Then I heard a voice from heaven It said Write this From now on there are great blessings for those who belong to the Lord when they die,Gonya nikisikira sauthi kula mulunguni ikinena ikiamba Zhandhike vivi Roho anaamba Baha aryahu at'u mafwao kahi za Bwana kuandzira vivi mana mandaoya thabu za kwao kwani mahendo gao ganathuwana nao
I looked and there before me sitting on a white cloud was one who looked like the Son of Man He had a gold crown on his head and a sharp sickle in his hand,Gonya nikitsuha matso na lola were hana ingu raruhe tse Dzulu za ingu riro were hakelesi mut'u here Mwana wa Mudamu Naye were adzavala kirauni cha dhahabu na mukononi mwakwe were adzagwirira upanga wa kurya
Then another angel came out of the temple This angel called to the one who was sitting on the cloud Take your sickle and gather from the earth The time to harvest has come and the fruit on the earth is ripe,Gonya kahi za ro Hekalu kuchambola malaika mungine akidzapiga luchemi zhomu kumwamba iye ariyekala akelesi ho inguni Bai mavuno ga dhunia ga thayari na wakathi wa kuvuna udzafika kwa vizho hala upangao ukwatye kuvuna
So the one who was sitting on the cloud swung his sickle over the earth And the earth was harvested,Na iye ariyekala akelesi mumo inguni akitsuha upangawe dzulu za ts'i na ts'i ikivunwa
Then another angel came out of the temple in heaven This angel also had a sharp sickle,Gonya nikiona malaika mungine ariyekala naye adzagwirira upanga wa kurya Malaika yuyu wambola kula kahi za ro Hekalu ra mulunguni
And then another angel one with power over the fire came from the altar He called to the angel with the sharp sickle and said Take your sharp sickle and gather the bunches of grapes from the earths vine The earths grapes are ripe,Badaye hakidza malaika mungine kula ho henye kijaja cha kulazhira sadaka Malaika yuyu were ana wadimi dzulu za moho Bai akiluta mumiro akinena na iye ariyekala adzagwirira uwo upanga wa kurya akimwamba Kwa kukala zo zabibu zizhalwazo dzulu za ts'i zi thayari bai humira wo upangao uzivune na uzikundzumanye
The angel swung his sickle over the earth He gathered the earths grapes and threw them into the great winepress of Gods anger,Kwa ut'u uwo bai ye malaika akitsuha wo upangawe dzulu za ts'i kuvuna zo zabibu na kuzitsuha kahi za hat'u ha k'oro za Mulungu ha kuzikamulira
The grapes were squeezed in the winepress outside the city Blood flowed out of the winepress It rose as high as the heads of the horses for a distance of 200 miles,Na zo zabibu zichangizwa hat'uhe ha kuzikamulira ndze ya wo mudzi mubomu zikikamulwa Bai hachambola milatso minji here muho kula kwa zo zabibu Na muho uwo were una wina wa futi ts'ano na ure wa here maili magana mairi
Then I saw another wonder in heaven It was great and amazing There were seven angels bringing seven plagues These are the last plagues because after these Gods anger is finished,Gonya nikiona ut'u ungine ubomu wa ajabu kidza wa kwangalaza Naona malaika afungahe mariokala mana mapigo mafungahe ga mwisho Mapigo gaga were ndo garigokamilisha k'oro za Mulungu
I saw what looked like a sea of glass mixed with fire All those who had won the victory over the beast and his idol and over the number of its name were standing by the sea These people had harps that God had given them,Gonya nikiona ut'u here bahari ya kilolo idziyotsanganywa na moho Na haho k'anda ya bahari were haimire ao at'u mariokala madzarishinda riro rinyama hamwenga na cho kizukache na iyo namba ya kwakweAt'u aa were madzagwirira vinubi marizhogerwa ni Mulungu
They sang the song of Moses the servant of God and the song of the Lamb,Na makiimba wira uriwoimbwa ni Musa muhumiki wa Mulungu na wira wa iye Mwana Ng'ondzi Wira uu were unaamba
All people will fear you O Lord,Ni h'ani Bwana asiyekugoha na kurilika dzinaro
After this I saw the temple the holy place of Gods presencein heaven It was opened,Vinakira vivi natsuha matso kuko mulunguni nikiona ro hekalu ri lwazu na mumo ndani mwere muna ro hema ra kwanyesa kukala Mulungu anao
and the seven angels bringing the seven plagues came out They were dressed in clean shining linen cloth They wore golden bands tied around their chests,Na o malaika afungahe enye wadimi wa kureha mapigo mafungahe machambola kahi za ro Hekalu makidza Mere madzavala majoho maruhe ga kitani safi na madzadzifunga mikanda ya dhahabu mumo makathini mwao
Then one of the four living beings gave seven golden bowls to the seven angels The bowls were filled with the anger of God who lives forever and ever,Gonya mumwenga wa ao zhumbe ane akiagolozera o malaika afungahe ndhuwa fungahe za dhahabu zidzizodzala k'oro za iye Mulungu aishiye kare na kare
The temple was filled with smoke from the glory and the power of God No one could enter the temple until the seven plagues of the seven angels were finished,Na wo mosi wa nguma na wadimi wa Mulungu ukiridzaza ro hekalu Bai k'ahana mut'u ariyedima kwangira kahi za ro Hekalu muhaka garyahu mapigo mafungahe ga o malaika afungahe gakigoma
Then I heard a loud voice from the temple It said to the seven angels Go and pour out the seven bowls of Gods anger on the earth,Gonya nikisikira sauthi ikinena zhomu ikiaamurisha o malaika afungahe kula kwa ro Hekalu Ikiambira Endani mukazimwage ts'i zo k'oro za Mulungu zirizo kahi za zho vidhuwa vifungahe
The first angel left He poured out his bowl on the land Then all those who had the mark of the beast and who worshiped its idol got sores that were ugly and painful,Bai iye malaika wa kwandza akihenda vizho zhenye Achendamwaga ts'i zho virizhokala ndani ya lulo ludhuwalwe Lola ao mariokala na muvano wa riro rinyama na ao mariokala madzakivoya kicho kizukache machambolwa ni vironda vii-vii kidza zha kwakaka
The second angel poured out his bowl on the sea Then the sea became blood like a dead mans blood And everything living in the sea died,Gonya ye malaika wa hiri akigwira ludhuwalwe boo baharini Na gago madzi gakikala doo milatso here ya mut'u adziyepigwa mushanga Zhumbe zhosi vitoazho mumo baharini vikifwa
The third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and the springs of water The rivers and the springs of water became blood,Gonya malaika wa hahu akigwira ludhuwalwe naye boo mihoni na kwenye matso ga madzi na gago madzi gakigaluka milatso gosi
The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun The sun was given power to burn the people with fire,H'aya malaika wa ne akilugwira lo ludhuwalwe akimwaga vizho virizhokala mumo dzulu za ro dzuwa na bai rikiruhusiwa rioche at'u
The people were burned by the great heat They cursed the name of God who had control over these plagues But they refused to change their hearts and lives and give glory to God,Bai at'u makiochwa ni wo moho wa dzuwa na makirilani riro dzina ra Mulungu ariye iye ndiye mwenye wadimi dzulu za go mapigo Kidza k'amathubire na kumup'a nguma Mulungu
The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast And darkness covered the beasts kingdom People bit their tongues because of the pain,Gonya ye malaika wa tsano akilugwira lo ludhuwa akilumwaga dzulu za cho kihi cha endzi cha riro rinyama Kiza kikigit'ana gii dzulu za wo uthawali wosi wa ro rinyama na at'u makiluma ndhimi zao kwa utsungu
They cursed the God of heaven because of their pain and the sores they had But they refused to change their hearts and turn away from the evil things they did,Makimuhukana iye Mulungu wa mulunguni kwa gago maumivu gao na kwa vizho vironda zhao ela hatha hamwenga na vizho go mahendo gao mai k'amagathubire bule
The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates The water in the river was dried up This prepared the way for the rulers from the east to come,Ye malaika wa handahu naye akilugwira lo ludhuwalwe akimwaga zho virizhokala mumo kahi za muho mubomu wa Yufurati Nawo furu ukifuruka ili uatengezere ngira athawali a mwambolero wa dzuwa
Then I saw three evil spirits that looked like frogs They came out of the mouth of the dragon out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet,Gonya nikiona roho t'ahu k'olo here zhula zichambola kula kahi za kanwa ka ro ridzoka na ro rinyama na kula kahi za kanwa ka ye nabii wa ulongo
These evil spirits are the spirits of demons They have power to do miraclesThey go out to the rulers of the whole world to gather them for battle on the great day of God AllPowerful,Roho zizo ni roho za p'ep'o mahendao miujiza Kazi ya zizi roho t'ahu ni kwendakundzumanya athawali osi a urumwengu hamwenga Zindaakusanya ili zigwage k'ondo siku iryahu bomu ya Bwana Mulungu mwenye nguvu zosi
Listen I will come at a time you dont expect like a thief Great blessings belong to those who stay awake and keep their clothes with them They will not have to go without clothes and be ashamed for people to see them,Bwana anaamba vivi Lola bai mimi ninadza gafula here mwivi Baha ye achesaye na nguwoze ili akatsanenda huhu ra mutindi na kupata waebu mbere za at'u
Then the evil spirits gathered the rulers together to the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon,Bai ao athawali makikundzumanywa hamwenga ni zo roho t'ahu za iye p'ep'o kahi za hat'u hariho kwa Kieburania hanaifwa Harimagedoni
The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air Then a loud voice came out of the temple from the throne It said It is finished,Gonya malaika wa fungahe akilugwira lo ludhuwalwe akimwaga hewani vizho virizhokala mumo ndani Nikisikira sauthi ya dzulu kula kahi za cho kihi cha endzi kiricho ndani za ro Hekalu Ikiamba Vidzahendwa bewe
Then there were flashes of lightning noises thunder and a big earthquake This was the worst earthquake that has ever happened since people have been on earth,Bai hakala na lumethe na sauthi na kigwaragwara na ts'i ikithukuka zhomu Kuthukuka kuku kwa ts'i were k'akudzaonewa hangu urumwengu uumbwe
The great city split into three parts The cities of the nations were destroyed And God did not forget to punish Babylon the Great He gave that city the cup filled with the wine of his terrible anger,Wo mudzi mubomu ukigazhika k'ana t'ahu na yo midzi mibomu ya urumwengu muzima ikinongwa-nongwa yosi Na Mulungu k'ausahauire bule wo mudzi wa Babiloni Waulazimisha ukwakwahire cho kikombe cha divai kiricho kinaima hat'u ha k'oro za Mulungu
Every island disappeared and there were no more mountains,Kila kisiwa changamika na mirima k'aionekanire kaheri
Giant hailstones fell on the people from the sky These hailstones weighed almost 100 poundseach People cursed God because of this plague of the hail It was terrible,Hakigwa vula ya mawe ga uziho wa kufika kilo mirongo mine na ts'ano dzulu za o at'u Bai o at'u makimulani Mulungu kwa ut'u wa riro pigo riro mana were ni pigo bomu
One of the seven angels came and spoke to me This was one of the angels that had the seven bowls The angel said Come and I will show you the punishment that will be given to the famous prostitute She is the one sitting over many waters,Vikara mumwenga wa aryahu malaika afungahe mariokala madzagwirira ndhuwa akidza kwangu akinamba Ndzo nikwanyese zho andizhohukumiwa ye malaya mubomu ariye akelesi dzulu za madzi manji
The rulers of the earth sinned sexually with her The people of the earth became drunk from the wine of her sexual sin,Mwanamuche ariyezinga na athawali na at'u a urumwengu waahenda maree divai ya wo uzindziwe
Then the angel carried me away by the Spirit to the desert There I saw a woman sitting on a red beast The beast was covered with evil names It had seven heads and ten horns,Bai ye malaika akinihala kahi za Roho hatha nyika Kuko nikiona rinyama rithune ririrokala ridzaorwa madzina ga kumukufuru Mulungu mwiri wosi Kidza were rina vitswa vifungahe na p'embe kumi Dzulu za riro rinyama were hana mwanamuche akeresi
The woman was dressed in purple and red She was shining with the gold jewels and pearls that she was wearing She had a golden cup in her hand This cup was filled with terribly evil things and the filth of her sexual sin,Ye mwanamuche were adzavala joho ra rangi ya zambarau na rangi th'une Kidza were adzapambwa na dhahabu vikolokolo zha kima kibomu na lulu Mukononi mwakwe were adzagwirira kikombe cha dhahabu kirichokala kithele mathuruthuru na vit'u vikolo zha uwo uzindziwe
She had a title written on her forehead This title has a hidden meaning This is what was written,Haho kidhanguni hakwe were handhikwa dzina ririro k'arimanyikana manaye Na dzina renye ndo riri MUDZI MUBOMU WA BABILONI MAMEYE MALAYA OSI na MAMEYE MATHURUTHURU GOSI HAHA DHUNIANI
I saw that the woman was drunk She was drunk with the blood of Gods holy people She was drunk with the blood of those who told about their faith in Jesus,Namulola ye mwanamuche nikimona kukala ni murevi kwa ut'u wa kunwa milatso ya at'u a Mulungu na milatso ya osi mariokotw'a kwa ut'u wa kumukuluhira Jesu
Then the angel said to me Why are you amazed I will tell you the hidden meaning of this woman and the beast she ridesthe beast with seven heads and ten horns,Ela ye malaika akinuza akiamba Kwanoni unangalala we Thariza nikwambire siri ya yuyu mwanamuche na ro rinyama ra vitswa vifungahe na p'embe kumi ambaro ridzamwareka iye mwanamuche
The beast you saw was once alive but now it is not However it will come up out of the bottomless pit and go away to be destroyed The people who live on the earth will be amazed when they see the beast because it was once alive is no longer living but will come again These are the people whose names have never been written in the book of life since the beginning of the world,Riryahu rinyama uronaro rakalako gonya rikifwa Vivi rindambola kaheri kula kahi za ro ridzina risiro mwisho na rinongwe-nongwe At'u osi matoao urumwenguni mario madzina gao k'agaorerwe kahi za cho kithabu cha uzima kabila urumwengu k'audzaumbwa mandangalala zhomu kurona Kwa kukala rakalako rikifwa na vino rinambola kaheri
You need wisdom to understand this The seven heads on the beast are the seven hills where the woman sits They are also seven rulers,Bai vivi vinahendza ulachu ndo mut'u avielewe Zho vitswa vifungahe vinaima hat'u ha mirima mifungahe hariho ndiho adzihokeresi ye mwanamuche
Five of the rulers have already died One of the rulers lives now and the last ruler is coming When he comes he will stay only a short time,Kidza vinaima hat'u ha athawali afungahe Kahi za ao athawali afungahe mumwenga anathawala atsano magonya kufwa na mumwenga ye tha k'adzadza Bai andihokudza andathawala kwa muda mufuti
The beast that was once alive but is no longer living is an eighth ruler This eighth ruler also belongs to the first seven rulers And he will go away to be destroyed,Na ro rinyama ririrokala moyo ela rikifwa ni rimwenga ra o athawali afungahe na ro renye ni muthawali wa nane Naro pia rindanongwa-nongwa
The ten horns you saw are ten rulers These ten rulers have not yet received their kingdom but they will receive power to rule with the beast for one hour,Zo p'embe kumi uzonazo ni athawali kumi mario k'amadzangwe kugerwa wadimi wa kuthawala ela mandagerwa wadimi wa kuthawala hamwenga na ro rinyama kwa muda wa saa mwenga thu
All ten of these rulers have the same purpose And they will give their power and authority to the beast,Athawali aa osi kumi mana lengo mwenga na mandarip'a ro rinyama nguvu na wadimi wa kwao
They will make war against the Lamb But the Lamb will defeat them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings And with him will be his chosen and faithful followersthe people he has called to be his,Aa osi mandagwaga k'ondo kuheha na ye Mwana Ng'ondzi hamwenga na o marioifwa makitsagulwa na manamukuluhira Ela ye Mwana Ng'ondzi na o at'ue mandaadhima kwa kukala iye be ni Bwana wa mabwana na Muthawali wa athawali
Then the angel said to me You saw the waters where the prostitute sits These waters are the many peoples the different races nations and languages in the world,Bai iye malaika akinena nami kaheri akinamba Gago madzi udzigogaona gadzakeresizwa ni iye mwanamuche malaya be ni at'u a kila ts'i kila kabila na kila kidhyomo
The beast and the ten horns you saw will hate the prostitute They will take everything she has and leave her naked They will eat her flesh and destroy her with fire,Zizo p'embe kumi na riro rinyama udzirorona zhosi vindamumena ye mwanamuche malaya Mandamuhendya akale huhu na kumuhoka zhosi arizho nazho akale tsululu Mandamutharura-tharura na mamwangamize na moho
God put the idea in their minds to do what would complete his purpose They agreed to give the beast their power to rule until what God has said is completed,Kwani Mulungu waahendya mathimize lengore kwa kuahendya makale angara na kulazha wadimi wao wa kuthawala kwa riro rinyama muhaka go maneno ga Mulungu gandihothimira
The woman you saw is the great city that rules over the kings of the earth,Iye mwanamuche udziyemona ni wo mudzi mubomu uathawalao o athawali a urumwengu
Then I saw another angel coming down from heaven This angel had great power The angels glory made the earth bright,Vivi virihokira natsuha matso nikimona malaika mungine kaheri mwenye wadimi mubomu Akithima kula mulunguni Bai wo mulangaza wa kwakwe waihendya dhunia yosi ing'ale
The angel shouted with a powerful voice,Bai akinena kwa sauthi ya dzulu akiamba
All the peoples of the earth have drunk the wine of her sexual sin and of Gods anger,Vivi zhakala kwa kukala kila kabila ranwa divai ya mathuruthuru ga uzindziwe
Then I heard another voice from heaven say,Gonya kuchambola sauthi nyingine kuko mulunguni ikiamba
That citys sins are piled up as high as heaven,Mana zizo dambize iye zidzakala ts'umbi bomu iriyo hatha inagut'a dzulu mulunguni
Give that city the same as she gave to others,Bai vizho arizhoahendera at'u nanwi muhendereni dza vizho zhenye
She gave herself much glory and rich living,Mwangizeni kigondzi na mumutese dza viryahu
So in one day she will suffer,Bai kwa ut'u uu andapata mapigo ga manyonge kiriro na ndzala siku mwenga
The rulers of the earth who sinned sexually with her and shared her wealth will see the smoke from her burning Then they will cry and be sad because of her death,Na o athawali a urumwenguni mariozinga na kupiga maisha naye mandihowona wo mosi wakathi andihokala anasha mandamuririra
The rulers will be afraid of her suffering and stand far away They will say,Mandahenda kuima kure kwenye kwa kugoha kupatwa ni gago mateso ga kwakwe Mandaamba
And the merchants of the earth will cry and be sad for her They will be sad because now there is no one to buy the things they sell,Na o ahendi a biashara a urumwengu mandamuririra na kumushikithikira mana vit'u zhao k'avigulwa kaheri
gold silver jewels pearls fine linen cloth purple cloth silk and scarlet cloth all kinds of citron wood and all kinds of things made from ivory expensive wood bronze iron and marble,K'ahana kamare agulaye zo dhahabu zao na fedha na hedu go mawe gao ga kima kibomu kitani safi na nguwo za zambarau na th'une na hariri K'ahana agulaye mihi yoyosi ya udhi na vit'u zhosi vitengezwazho na p'embe za ndzovu na mbao za gali na vit'u zha ng'andu na zha chuma na zha marimari
They also sell cinnamon spice incense frankincense myrrh wine olive oil fine flour wheat cattle sheep horses carriages and slavesyes even human lives The merchants will cry and say,K'akuna agulaye mudhalasini iliki mavumba manemane ubani divai mafuha unga ngano K'akuna agulaye ng'ombe ng'ondzi farasi magari ga kusukumwa ni farasi atumwa na roho za anadamu
O Babylon the good things you wanted have left you,O ahendi a biashara makimwamba ye mwanamuche
The merchants will be afraid of her suffering and will stand far away from her They are the ones who became rich from selling those things to her They will cry and be sad,Bai ao ahendi a biashara kahi za mudzi uwo mubomu mariopata ushaha kula kwa ye mwanamuche mandaima kure kwa kugoha kupata mashaka hamwenga naye Mandarira na kushikithika zhomu zhenye
They will say,Mandaamba
All these riches have been destroyed in one hour,Uwo uthajiriwe wosi udzangamika kwa muda wa saa mwenga thu-thu-thu
They saw the smoke from her burning They cried out There was never a city like this great city,Kidza marihowona wo mosi wakathi arihokala anasha makirira makiamba Ni mudzi hiwo uriwokala mubomu dza uno
They threw dust on their heads and cried loudly to show the deep sorrow they felt They said,Na lola marira na kushikithika Makidzimwagira mitsanga ya kitswa na kuamba
Be happy because of this O heaven,Hendani raha ninwi mutoao kuko mulunguni mana Mulungu adzauhukumu uwo mudzi mubomu wa Babiloni kwa gago urigomuhendera Ninwi at'ue na ahumwi na manabii nanwi hendani raha mana Mulungu adzauhukumu uwo mudzi wa Babiloni kwa gago urigomuhendera
Then a powerful angel picked up a large rock This rock was as big as a large millstone The angel threw the rock into the sea and said,Gonya hakimbola malaika mwenye wadimi akihatsola riiwe ribomu here lwalwa akiritsuha mumo baharini Akiamba
O Babylon the music of people playing harps and other instruments flutes and trumpets,Ndani mwako uwe Babiloni k'amundasikirwa wira upigwao na vinubi
The light of a lamp,Taa k'arindaaka kaheri mumu mwako
You are guilty of the death of the prophets of Gods holy people,Na ndani mwakwe mwaonekana milatso ya o manabii na ya at'u a Mulungu
After this I heard what sounded like a large crowd of people in heaven The people were saying,Bada ya iye malaika mwenye wadimi kumarigiza kunena nasikira mumiro here wa kundi bomu ra at'u kuko mulunguni Bai at'u ao maluta mimiro makiamba
His judgments are true and right,Mana iye anahukumu kwa ngira ya jeri na ya hachi
These people also said,Bai makiluta mimiro yao kaheri makiamba
Then the 24 elders and the four living beings bowed down They worshiped God who sits on the throne They said,Na o azhere mirongo miri na ane na ao zhumbe ane a moyo madzigwaga na moyo makimuvoya Mulungu Mamuvoya iye Mulungu ariye akeresi kahi za kihi cha endzi makiamba H'aami H'aleluya
Then a voice came from the throne and said,Gonya ho henye cho kihi cha endzi hachambola mumiro ukiamba
Then I heard something that sounded like a large crowd of people It was as loud as crashing waves or claps of thunder The people were saying,Vinakira vizho nikisikira mumiro here wa kundi bomu ra at'u here wa mwamba ududumizao na here wa kigwaragwara Bai mumiro uwo wanena zhomu ukiamba H'aleluya Mana iye Bwana Mulungu wehu mwenye nguvu zosi anathawala
Then the angel said to me Write this Great blessings belong to those who are invited to the wedding meal of the Lamb Then the angel said These are the true words of God,Bai ye malaika akinamba Ndhika maneno gaga Baha ao at'u mariosungwa iyo sherehe ya harusi ya iye Mwana Ng'ondzi Gonya akinena nami kaheri akinamba Maneno gaga ni maneno ga jeri na ni ga Mulungu
Then I bowed down before the angels feet to worship him But the angel said to me Dont worship me I am a servant like you and your brothers and sisters who have the truth of Jesus So worship God Because the truth of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy,Bai nadzigwaga ho ts'i mbereze nimuvoye ela ye akiniamba Hatha bule usihende vizho Mimi nami ni muhumiki thu here uwe ni muhumiki here o nduguzo mario manathuwa uwo ujeri uriwogunulwa ni Jesu Kwa vizho muvoye Mulungu mana uwo ujeri uriwogunulwa ni Jesu ndo nguvu ziahendazo makamboza unabii
Then I saw heaven open There before me was a white horse The rider on the horse was called Faithful and True because he is right in his judging and in making war,Gonya ko mulunguni kukigunuka na lola nikiona farasi mwaruhe tse Dzina ra ye muhirikiwe were ni Muaminifu na Mujeri Naye nikuhukumu na kupiga viha kwa ngira ya hachi
His eyes were like burning fire He had many crowns on his head A name was written on him but he was the only one who knew its meaning,Matsoge were ga here moho uakao Mumo kitswani mwakwe were adzavala taji nyinji Mwirini mwakwe mo were mwandhikwa dzina ambaro k'ahana mut'u arimanyaye hasihokala iye mwenye
He was dressed in a robe dipped in blood and he was called the Word of God,Kidza were adzavala k'andzu iriyokala idzavikwa mulatsoni Na riro dzina arirokala anaifirwa were ni Neno ra Mulungu
The armies of heaven were following the rider on the white horse They were also riding white horses They were dressed in fine linen white and clean,Na go majeshi ga mulunguni garigo were gadzavala kitani mbidzo nyaruhe tse na safi gakimuthuwa nyuma kuno ga dzulu za farasi aruhe
A sharp sword came out of the riders mouth a sword that he would use to defeat the nations And he will rule the nations with a rod of iron He will crush the grapes in the winepress of the terrible anger of God AllPowerful,Kanwani mwakwe mwambola mushu wa kurya andiwouhumira kugadhima go makabila naye andaathawala na ukali munji na kuamwagira k'oro k'ali za ye Mulungu mwenye nguvu zosi
On his robe and on his leg was written this name,Kahi za riro valore na kahi za kiga cha kwakwe mwere mwandhikwa dzina riri Muthawali wa athawali na Bwana wa mabwana
Then I saw an angel standing in the sun In a loud voice the angel said to all the birds flying in the sky Come together for the great supper of God,Kidza nikiona malaika aungerere dzulu za ro dzuwa Bai malaika yuyu wawiha uwo unyama ubururukao mainguni kwa mumiro mubomu akiamba Ndzoni mukundzumanyike hamwenga kwa iyo sherehe bomu ya Mulungu
Come together so that you can eat the bodies of rulers and army commanders and famous men Come to eat the bodies of the horses and their riders and the bodies of all peoplefree slave small and great,Ndzoni murye nyama za athawali na za abomu a viha na za at'u enye nguvu na za apandi a farasi na farasi a kwao na za at'u osi atumwa mario huru abomu na athithe
Then I saw the beast and the rulers of the earth Their armies were gathered together to make war against the rider on the horse and his army,Gonya nikirona ro rinyama na o athawali a urumwengu na majeshi ga kwao Makikundzumanyana hamwenga mapigane na ye akelesiye dzulu za iye farasi na gago majeshige
But the beast was captured and the false prophet was also captured He was the one who did the miraclesfor the beast He had used these miracles to trick those who had the mark of the beast and worshiped its idol The false prophet and the beast were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur,Na ro rinyama rikihalwa mateka hamwenga na ye nabii wa ulongo Nabii yuyu nde ariyekala akitengeza miujiza mbere za ro rinyama Bai wahumira miujiza ii kuakenga aryahu mariokala na muvano wa ro rinyama na o mariokala makiivoya yo sanamuye Bai osi airi ro rinyama hamwenga na ye nabii makitsufwa a moyo kahi za ziya ra moho wa baruthi
Their armies were killed with the sword that came out of the mouth of the rider on the horse All the birds ate these bodies until they were full,Na majeshi ga kwao gakithemwa-themwa na wo mushu umbolao kanwani mwa ye ahirikaye farasi gakilagwa Bai unyama wosi ukit'ot'a zo nyama zao hatha ukichenjeha
Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth The first heaven and the first earth had disappeared Now there was no sea,Bada ya gago nikiona mulunguni kusha na ts'i mbisha mana ko mulunguni kwa kapindi na ts'i ya kapindi zhakala zhagonya kukira na were k'akuna bahari kaheri
And I saw the holy city the new Jerusalemcoming down out of heaven from God It was prepared like a bride dressed for her husband,Nikiwona wo Mudzi Mueri yani Jerusalemu mbisha Bai Jerusalemu iyo yathima kula kuko dzulu mulunguni kwa Mulungu na were idzathayarishwa dza viryahu zha bibi harusi apambwazho kumuthariza mulumewe
I heard a loud voice from the throne It said Now Gods home is with people He will live with them They will be his people God himself will be with them and will be their God,Nikisikira mumiro wa mut'u unanena zhomu kula haho henye cho kihi cha endzi Ukiamba Lola vivi be makalo ga Mulungu ni hamwenga na anadamu Andakala hamwenga nao nao mandakala at'ue na iye Mulungu mwenye andakala hamwenga nao
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes There will be no more death sadness crying or pain All the old ways are gone,Mulungu andaafuta matsozi gosi K'akundakala na kifwa kaheri hedu huzuni K'akundakala na kulumira na k'akundakala na kiriro kaheri Mana maut'u gosini ga kapindi gandakala gadzagoma kukira
The one who was sitting on the throne said Look I am making everything new Then he said Write this because these words are true and can be trusted,Gonya iye ariyekala akelesi kahi za cho kihi cha endzi akiamba Lola vivi be ninahenda kila kit'u kikale kisha Kidza akiamba Gandhike gaga mana ni maneno ga kukuluhirika na ga ujeri
The one on the throne said to me It is finished I am the Alpha and the Omegathe Beginning and the End I will give free water from the spring of the water of life to anyone who is thirsty,H'aya iye vizho akiamba Vidzakala Mimi ndimi Alifa na Omega Ndimi mwandzo na ndimi mwisho Kila mut'u mwenye k'ihu nindamup'a madzi ga bule anwe kula kwa matso ga madzi ga uzima
All those who win the victory will receive all this And I will be their God and they will be my children,Kila andiyeshinda nindamup'a maut'u gago gosi Andakala mwanangu nami nindakala Mulunguwe
But those who are cowards those who refuse to believe those who do terrible things those who kill those who sin sexually those who do evil magic those who worship idols and those who tell liesthey will all have a place in the lake of burning sulfur This is the second death,Ela at'u osi aoga na masiokuluhira na ahendi a maitsi-maitsi na alagi na azindzi na atsai na mavoyao vizuka na alongo osi hat'u hao ni riro ziya ra moho wa baruthi Na kicho bai ndicho kifwa cha hiri
One of the seven angels came to me This was one of the angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues The angel said Come with me I will show you the bride the wife of the Lamb,Vinakira vivi mumwenga wa o malaika afungahe mariokala mana vidhuwa vifungahe zha gago mapigo mafungahe ga mwisho akidzanamba Ndzo nikwanyese ye bibi harusi mukaza ye Mwana Ng'ondzi
The angel carried me away by the Spirit to a very large and high mountain The angel showed me the holy city Jerusalem The city was coming down out of heaven from God,Bai ye malaika akinihala kahi za Roho hatha dzulu ya murima mubomu kidza mure Kuko akinanyesa uwo mudzi mubomu mueri wa Jerusalemu Nawo were unathima kula kwa Mulungu kuko dzulu mulunguni
The city was shining with the glory of God It was shining bright like a very expensive jewel like a jasper It was clear as crystal,Mudzi uu were unang'ala mulangaza wa Mulungu Mulangaza uwo were unang'ala zhomu dza viryahu mawe ga th'amani ga jasipa gang'alazho Pia mudzi uu were unanyesa here kilolo
The city had a large high wall with twelve gates There were twelve angels at the gates On each gate was written the name of one of the twelve tribes of Israel,Were udzadengerekwa ni ukuta mubomu wenye ure wa dzulu Kidza were una miryango mibomu kumi na miri Kila muryangoni were haimire malaika Dzulu za kila muryango were handhikwa madzina ga zizo mbari kumi na mbiri za ana a Iziraeli
There were three gates on the east three gates on the north three gates on the south and three gates on the west,Kila luhande lwa uwo ukuta lwere luna miryango mihahu Luhande lwa mwambolero wa dzuwa miryango mihahu lwa kwa mwaka miryango mihahu lwa mutserero wa dzuwa miryango mihahu na lwa kwa vuri miryango mihahu
The walls of the city were built on twelve foundation stones On the stones were written the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb,Na uwo ukuta wa mudzi uu were waakwa dzulu za musinji wa mawe kumi na mairi Kila iwe were randhikwa dzina mwenga ra aryahu ahumwi kumi na airi a iye Mwana Ng'ondzi
The angel who talked with me had a measuring rod made of gold The angel had this rod to measure the city its gates and its wall,Bai iye malaika ariyenena nami wakala adzagwirira mudhath'a wa kupimira Na mudhath'a uu were watengezwa na dhahabu Nawo were ni wa kupimira wo mudzi mubomu hamwenga na yo miryangoye mibomu na zizo k'ut'aze
The city was built in a square Its length was equal to its width The angel measured the city with the rod The city was 12000,Iye malaika waupima wo mudzi na walamuwe uchenda karakara de na urewe Urewe were ni maili alifu mwenga na magana matsano na walamuwe na kimoche nazho dza zho
The angel also measured the wall It was 144 cubitshigh The angel was using the same measurement that people use,Kidza akipima kimo cha wo ukuta wa wo mudzi na ukimbola futi magana mairi na kumi na t'andahu Vivi ni kulengana na cho kipimo kikubaliwacho ni anadamu ambacho ndicho arichokala ye malaika anahumira
The wall was made of jasper The city was made of pure gold as pure as glass,Wo mudzi wenye were waakwa na dhahabu safi ya kung'ala-ng'ala here kilolo Ukutawe wo ukikala waakwa na mawe ga jasipa
The foundation stones of the city walls had every kind of expensive jewels in them The first foundation stone was jasper the second was sapphire the third was chalcedony the fourth was emerald,Misinji ya wo ukuta wa wo mudzi mubomu were idzapambwa na mawe ga kima kibomu ga kila samupuli Musinji wa kwandza were ni wa mawe ga jasipa wa hiri ukikala ni wa mawe ga yakuti samawi wa hahu ukikala ni wa mawe ga kalikedoni na wa ne ukikala ni wa mawe ga zumaridi
the fifth was onyx the sixth was carnelian the seventh was yellow quartz the eighth was beryl the ninth was topaz the tenth was chrysoprase the eleventh was jacinth and the twelfth was amethyst,Wa tsano wakala ni wa mawe ga sadoniki wa handahu ukikala ni wa mawe ga akiki wa fungahe wakala ni wa mawe ga kirisilitho na wa nane ukikala ni wa mawe ga zabarajadi Musinji wa chenda wakala ni wa mawe ga yakuti ya manjano wa kumi ukikala ni wa mawe ga kirisopuraso Musinji wa kumi na mwenga wakala ni wa mawe ga hiakinitho na wa kumi na mbiri ukikala ni wa mawe ga amethisito
The twelve gates were twelve pearls Each gate was made from one pearl The street of the city was made of pure gold as clear as glass,Yo miryango mibomu kumi na miri were ni ya lulu kumi na mbiri Kila muryango were watengezwa kwa lulu mwenga Barabara za mudzi uwo were zatengezwa na dhahabu safi inyesayo here kilolo
I did not see a temple in the city The Lord God AllPowerful and the Lamb were the citys temple,Sionere Hekalu rorosi kahi za mudzi uwo Mana Hekalu rao were ni iye Bwana Mulungu mwenye nguvu zosi na iye Mwana Ng'ondzi
The city did not need the sun or the moon to shine on it The glory of God gave the city light The Lamb was the citys lamp,Na mudzi uwo were k'auhumira mulangaza wa dzuwa hedu mwezi mana mulangazawe were ni iyo nguma ya Mulungu na taa ra mudzi uwo were ni iye Mwana Ng'ondzi
The peoples of the world will walk by the light given by the Lamb The rulers of the earth will bring their glory into the city,Makabila gosi ga urumwengu gandanenda gakilongozwa ni uwo mulangaza wa mudzi uwo Na athawali a dhuniani mandaureha ushaha wao mumo
The citys gates will never close on any day because there is no night there,Na miryangoye k'aindafungwa bule indakala lwazu wakathi wosi kwa kukala kuko k'akuna usiku hedu mutsana
The greatness and the honor of the nations will be brought into the city,Nguma ya makabila ga urumwengu na ishima yao zhosi vindarefwa kahi za mudzi uwo
Nothing unclean will ever enter the city No one who does shameful things or tells lies will ever enter the city Only those whose names are written in the Lambs book of life will enter the city,Ela kit'u chochosi kiricho ni kikolo na mut'u yoyosi ahendaye maut'u maitsi-maitsi na mut'u mulongo osi k'amandangira bule kuko Mandiongira kuko ni aryahu at'u mario madzina gao gandhikwa kahi za cho kithabu cha uzima cha iye Mwana Ng'ondzi
The angel showed me the river of the water of life clear as crystal The river flows from the throne of God and the Lamb,Gonya ye malaika akinanyesa muho wa madzi ga uzima umbolao kula kahi za cho kihi cha endzi cha Mulungu na cha iye Mwana Ng'ondzi Muho uu were unang'ala-ng'ala here kilolo
It flows down the middle of the street of the city The tree of life is on each side of the river and it produces fruit every month twelve times a year The leaves of the tree are for healing the nations,Kidza were unakira kahikahi za zizo barabara za mudzi uwo Kila luhande lwa wo muho were hana muhi wa uzima uriwo were kwa mwezi unazhala matunda lumwenga na kwa mwaka were unazhala k'ana kumi na mbiri Makodza ga muhi uwo were ni muhaso wa kugahoza go makabila
Nothing that God judges guilty will be there in that city The throne of God and the Lamb will be in the city Gods servants will worship him,Kit'u chochosi kiricholaniwa ni Mulungu k'akindakalamo bule kahi za mudzi uwo Kihi cha endzi cha Mulungu na cha iye Mwana Ng'ondzi vindakala kahi za mudzi uwo Na ahumiki a kwakwe mandamuvoya
They will see his face Gods name will be written on their foreheads,At'u mandamona Mulungu uso kwa uso na dzinare rindandhikwa dzulu za vidhangu zhao
There will never be night again People will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun The Lord God will give them light And they will rule like kings forever and ever,Kahi za mudzi uwo k'akundakala na usiku kaheri na at'u k'amandahenda haja na mwanga wa taa hedu wa dzuwa mana Bwana Mulungu ndiye andiyekala mulangaza wao Na bai mandathawala kare na kare
Then the angel said to me These words are true and can be trusted The Lord the God of the spirits of the prophets has sent his angel to show his servants what must happen soon,Gonya iye malaika akinamba Maneno gaga be ni ga ujeri na kidza ganakuluhirika Na iye Bwana Mulungu aap'aye manabii Roho wa kwakwe wamuhuma malaikawe akaanyese o ahumikie maut'u garigo k'agandatoa suthi gandathimira
Listen I am coming soon Great blessings belong to the one who obeys the words of prophecy in this book,Lolani ninadza kare sindatoa bule na mut'u agagwiraye gaga maneno ga unabii garigo kahi za chuwo kiki andahaswa
I am John I am the one who heard and saw these things After I heard and saw them I bowed down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed them to me,Mut'u mimi Johana maut'u gaga nagasikira na nikigaona na matso Bai nirihokala nidzagonya kugaona na kugasikira nadzigwaga na moyo mbere za iye malaika ariyekala adzananyesa maut'u gaga na nikikala namala kumuvoya iye
But the angel said to me Dont worship me I am a servant like you and your brothers the prophets I am a servant like all those who obey the words in this book You should worship God,Ela iye arihoona viryahu waniamba Usihende vizho bule Muvoye Mulungu mana mimi ni muhumiki thu dza vizho uwe na nduguzo manabii Ni muhumiki karakara na at'u mario managwira Maoro ga chuwo kiki kwa vizho muvoye Mulungu
Then the angel told me Dont keep secret the words of prophecy in this book The time is near for these things to happen,Kidza akinamba Gaga Maoro ga unabii ga chuwo kiki usigafitse bule mana wakathi wa kuthimira maut'u gaga udzafika hehi
Let anyone who is doing wrong continue to do wrong Let anyone who is unclean continue to be unclean Let anyone who is doing right continue to do right Let anyone who is holy continue to be holy,Muthiriri naaenderere kukala muthiriri thuye Mut'u ahendaye maitsi-maitsi naye naaenderere kuhenda maitsi-maitsi Ahendaye madzo naaenderere kuhenda madzo Mueri naye naathuwe kukala mueri
Listen I am coming soon I will bring rewards with me I will repay everyone for what they have done,Lolani ninadza kare si kure bule nami ninadza na zawadi nimup'e kila mut'u kulengana na mahendo ga kwakwe
I am the Alpha and the Omegathe First and the Last the Beginning and the End,Mimi ndimi Alifa na Omega Ndimi wa Kwandza na wa Mwisho Na ndimi Mwandzo na ndimi Mwisho
Great blessings belong to those who have washed their robesThey will have the right to eat the food from the tree of life They can go through the gates into the city,Aryahu at'u mafulao nguwo zao ili mapate ruhusa ya kwangira mumo mudzini kukirira iyo miryangoye na marye matunda ga muhi wa uzima mandahaswa
Outside the city are all those who live like dogsthose who do evil magic those who sin sexually those who murder those who worship idols and those who love to lie and pretend to be good,Ela kuko ndze ya uwo mudzi kundakala na o k'uro kundakala atsai azindzi alagi at'u mavoyao vizuka na at'u mahendzao ulongo
I Jesus have sent my angel to tell you these things for the churches I am the descendant from the family of David I am the bright morning star,Mimi Jesu ndimi nyenyezi ya madzach'a mimi nazhalwa kahi za lukolo lwa Daudi Bai nidzamuhuma malaika wangu kwenu adze aambire makanisa maut'u gaga
The Spirit and the bride say Come Everyone who hears this should also say Come All who are thirsty may come they can have the water of life as a free gift if they want it,Roho na iye Bibi harusi wa iye Mwana Ng'ondzi manamwiha Bwana na kuamba Ndzo Na kila mut'u andiyesikira naye naambe Ndzo Kila mwenye k'ihu na ahendzaye naadze anwe madzi ga uzima bule
I warn everyone who hears the words of prophecy in this book If anyone adds anything to these God will give that person the plagues written about in this book,Ninamukanya kila andesikira maneno gaga ga unabii garigo kahi za chuwo kiki Mut'u andiyegangeza na gakwe iye naye Mulungu andamungezeza gago mapigo gadzigohadzwa kahi za chuwo kiki
And if anyone takes away from the words of this book of prophecy God will take away that persons share of the tree of life and of the holy city which are written about in this book,Na mut'u yoyosi andiyemboza neno rorosi kula kwa gaga maneno ga unabii wa chuwo kiki Mulungu andamuhoka uwo muthalowe kahi za uwo muhi wa uzima Kidza andamuhoka wo muthalowe kahi za uwo mudzi mueri Mithalo iyo idzahadzwa kare kahi za chuwo kiki
Jesus is the one who says that all of this is true Now he says Yes I am coming soon Amen Come Lord Jesus,Bai iye ambozaye ushahidhi wa maut'u gaga anaamba Jeri wenye ninadza kare si kure bule H'aami ndzo Bwana Jesu
The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all people Amen,Nema ya Bwana Jesu naikale hamwenga nanwi nyosi at'u a Mulungu H'aami
If we count the fruits from the main branch to here you will find there are around 15 fruits,Ukihesabu namba ya matunda kwa kitagahii mpaka haha undapata matunda 15
You can see them,mnaona
These 15 fruits make up about a kilo,matumda kumi na tsano ni here kilo mwenga
If the fruits are of good size there will be 12 or 10 fruits instead,kala ni mabomu ni here matunda 12 au 10
So you can count that each lateral branch gives about 25 fruits,Kwa vivyo kila kitagai undapata matunda 25
Multiply that by 25 laterals and you get the total amount of fruit,Ukitsanganya idadi yosi kwa 25 undapata idadi kamili
There are 25 fruits in number,ni matunda 25
On the other side they are also the same,na upande mungine ni idadi sawasawa
In one plant it should give you that seasons yield,kila mumea unafaa kukupa idadi io io
Youre supposed to get at least 50 kg,unafaa kupata kilo 50
That is 50 kilograms,io ni kilo 50
How many seasons do we have for this,huna midimu mingahi kwa ino
You will have only one season,una msimu mumwenga
But it is widespread about 50 kg,lakini undapata kilo 50
Its 50 kg,ni kilo hamsini
So you can get anywhere between 0 and 50 kg depending on your management,kwa vivyo kwanzira kilo 0 mpka kilo 50 kulingana na jitihafi za kwako
The other thing is the feeding routine I was telling you about,Mbinu ingine niio nigomba kare
You know the viewers of this video,unamanya aloli wa ii video
They have subscribed to the channel,adziunga na ii tovuti
And I know after this we are going to share something through my bank account,na baada ya haha hundagavya kitu kombola kwa akaunti yangu ya benki
Let them use mine,richa wahumire yangu
They can use help,wanaeza kupata msaada
We are going to share your bank account,hunda humira akaunti yako ya benki
You can get my bank account,mnaeza pata akaunti yangu ya benki
Because whatever youre giving them I even know University can share that,kwa sababu cho mndawapa nanya vyuo vikuu vimdangavya
Nobody can say that to them,kakuna mtu anaweza kuwamba gago
For passion fruit you dont feed it just once and thats all,Kwa mimea ya karakara usiho irisa maramwenga haho mdo mwisho
To sustain the plant you should use at least 20 to 50 grams per month,Kuhimili mumea umafaa kuhumira gramu 20 mpaka 50 kila mwezi
Or after 30 days after 40 days,ama siku 30 au siku 40
On a monthly basis use 20 to 40 grams,kwa mwezi humira gramu 20 mpaka 50
Alternate between granular fertilizers,kwa mpangilio wa mbolea ya tsenga
Alternate between phosphorus nitrogen and potassium,kati ya phosphorus nitrogen na potassium
Use the NPK fertilizer,humira mbolea ya NPK
You can play around with NPK,unaeza cheza na Npk
This time you can use rare and next time you use a phosphatic fertilizer like 2323,muda uu uneza humira mbolea ya phosphat here 23 -23
So you can feed them lets say 150 grams,umdairisa here gramu 150
Then it drinks the next day and all the nutrients are absorbed,alafu inanywa siku indayoturiza virutubisho vyosi vindanyonywa
But are the plants really going to benefit from this,ila mimea indaweza kunufaika kombola kwa ii
Its not going to be effective,kaindakala na umuhimu
Youve already lost the nutrients,undakala ushangamiza virutubishi vyosi
Yes and remember we said you are going to irrigate this plant every now and then,Na mkumbuke mdakala mki imwagira madzi kila mara
Every now and then it should have water,kila mara umwagire madzi
Remember water should be moderate,mukumbuke madzi gakale ga awango yaa kutosha
You dont overwater it so that it doesnt become waterlogged as it will rot,usimwagire madzi manji ili mtsaka usikale na madzi kupita kiasi isiozeshe mizizi
You also dont underwater it as that causes some problems,Pia usimwage madzi kidogo kwa sababu pia io inashida za kwake
Sometimes the abortion of flowers happens,mara zingine malua huumbuka
Once it realizes it has lacked something it will naturally abort,Ikikosa utu kawaida gandaunda umbuka
The abortion is when you see that it is dropping flowers,kuumbuka ni harahu malua gana chupuka
Even if you see it dropping flowers it tells you there is an issue,ukioma gana chupuka manya kuna sababu
If it is attacked by diseases the problem will show on the flowers,ukiviwa na makongo pia huomyesa kwenye malua
The flowers will start dropping,malua gandachupuka
For it to support all the fruits you now have to provide all its needs,unafaa kuipa kila kitu ili iweze kukala na matumda
Provide proper fertility to ensure healthy fruiting,ipe mbolea irio na virutubishi ili ivyale matunda madzo
We also have fungi so you have to spray the leaves with fungicide,kisha kuna Fangai inayofaa kumwagira dawa kwenye makodza
This should be done twice a month every two weeks or every fortnight,inafaa kuhendwa mara mbiri kila mwezi
Remember we said that every 40 days you have to feed them,kimbukeni kila baada ya siku 40 unafaa kuirisa
It is wise to feed them throughout the growing period,inafaa uirise msimu wosi wa kunyala
This ensures it doesnt have time to shed leaves because you are replenishing nutrients,inawezesha ishi bwage makodza ili kuhifadhi virutubishi
The moment it starts to fruit it uses its nutrients to make the fruit grow,wakati inaanza kuvyala matinda inahumira virutubishi kuvyala
You need to support the fruiting process,unafaa ku wezesha uvyaladzi wa matunda
On top of the granular fertilizer every fortnight you have to use a foliar spray,kwa mbolea unafaa kuhumulira mfumo wa ku mwaga na sprei
Like I told you there is a good foliar spray you can use,nirivyoambira kuna sprei mbidzo ya kuhumira
Please even if Im going to pay for that later you can give us the information,tafadhali takala nindawariha badae unaeza hupa taarifa
Which is this foliar spray youre using,ni sprei hio uihumirayo
That is what you are using here and on other plants as well,io ndo huihimirayo kwa mimea mingine
It is doing very well even where plants are plenty,inahenda kazi tototo takala mimea ni minji
It has a growth regulator,ina utibithi wa kumera
So they know where to produce flowers and where to figure the sweetness,Kwa vivyo inamanya kwa kuomboza malua na kwa kumboza utamu
For the foliar spray it also has a sticker,kwa sprei ya foliar kuna stika
You realize that even if you spray it and it rains the foliar will still be utilized because it has a sticker,undapata uki sprei alifu kunye mvula indagama kwa sababu ina sticker
It tends to be absorbed even when it rains which is a good thing,inanyonywa takala kundanya mvula
The other thing is that it has very balanced NPK nutrients,pia ina virutubisho vya Npk
You realize that it has high nitrogen and the nitrogen written on the label is exactly what is inside,ina naitrogeni ya kiwango kibomu irivyo andikwa kwa karatasi
It also has phosphorous and potassium in the right amounts,pia in phosporous na potassium
Remember when the plants are young use fertilizer with high phosphorus,kumbuka kala mimea kala ni mtsanga humira mbolea ya phosphorus ya dzulu
That is what we call Mazao P Plus,io huiwa mazao plus
We also have Mazao Vegeta which will help your plants grow very well,pia huna mazao vegeta inayowezesha mimea kunawiri tototo
When the plants start fruiting you should switch to using potassium,mumea uchanza komboza matunda galuza uhumire potassium
At this stage you can spray Mazao Plenty,stegi ii humira mazao
Mazao Plenty is good for fruiting plants,Mazao plenty ni mbidzo wakati wa matunda
For finishing stages like this one use Mazao Plenty,wakati wakati wa kumarigiza humira mazao plenty
We also have another one called Plenty Standard,pia kuna ingine inaihwa plenty standard
Plenty Standard can support all growth stages of the plant,plenty standard inahumika kila steji
It has a very good formula of 252520 NPK,ina fomula mbidzo 25_25_20Npk
This formula can support any stage of plant growth,ii fomula inahumika kila steji
It is always nice to use this fertilizer because it helps with all aspects of growth,ni totot kuhumira mbole kwa sababu husaidia kwa kumera
At this point if the plants are not fruiting yet you can use it to help them grow leaves and support their care,kala mimea kaiboza matunda unaweza kuwezesha imere makodza
A standard fertilizer helps the root system with phosphorus,mbolea injine husaidia mizizi na virutubishi vya phosphorus
It helps the leaves with nitrogen,inasaidia makodza na niaitrogeni
It helps the ripening and setting of flowers with potassium,Inasaidia na kuiva kwa matunda na kunawiri kwa malua Na virutubishi vya potassium
That is good manure,Io ni mbeyu mbidzo
We also have chicken manure,pia kuna mbolea ya kuku
Chicken manure is a temporary solution for plants,mbolea ya kuku ni suluhisho ra muda
It has a lot of urea,ina Urea nyinji
Apart from the urea there is another downside to chicken manure,mbali na urea kuna tatizo ringine ra mbolea ya kuku
Chicken manure usually comes with mites from the chicken,mbolea ya kuku hudza na vidudu here huke wa kuku
The mites will immediately find comfort in your passion fruit plants,Huke ao andavamia mumea wakwako
You will realize that your plants are not growing well,undapata kala mimea ya kwako kaimera tototo
They will not even grow at all,kaimdamera kamare
The mites will now thrive because they have food,Ao kuhe andakuka kwa kua wanapata chakurya
You have moved them from a temporary home to a new place where they can grow and multiply,udziwahala kula kwa makazi yao na kuaika hatu kusha amabako andakula na kuvyalana
Thats why I discourage using chicken manure unless it is sanitized,siwashauri kuhumira mbolea ya kuku kala kaidzatibiwa
There are companies that sanitize and process chicken manure,kuna kampuni ambazo hutibu na kuguza mbolea ya kuku
That processed chicken manure is good,mbolea ya kuku iriyotibiwa ni mbidzo
I understand there are companies selling sanitized chicken manure,naelewa kala kuna Kampuni zinazotibu na kuguza mbolea ya kuku
They process it and supply it to animal feed factories,anatibu na kuguza kwa viwanda vya kutengeza vyakura vya anyama
The factories make animal feed using it,viwanda huihumira kutengeza vyakura vya anyama
Thats why I think sanitized chicken manure is better,mbolea ya kuku iriyotibiwa ndo mbidzo
In the market it is good to find sanitized chicken manure,nitoto kupata mbolea ya kuku iriyotibiwa
It is better for your farm,ni mbidzo kwa shamba rako
Wow interesting,Inavutia
Now we have the other manure,sasa huna mbolea ingine
Yes we have added our fertilizer,hujaika mbolea yehu
It is also deep two feet,pia i futi mbiri tsini
Yes it becomes like a skill right,ehh hukala here ujuzi
Cubic two feet yes,eeh futi mbiri
This is so that you can accommodate a good amount of manure,Ndo upate mbolea nyinji
Once you return the soil the roots will now be at ease to develop,ukishaudza mtsanga mizizi indapa nafasi mizizi imere
The soil there is not as compact as before,mtsanga haho si mufu here mwanzo
Sure so there you will have some good work,haho kazi indahendeka tototo
Then we move forward,kisha hundasonga mbere
We now come to planting the plants,sasa ni wakati wa kunyala
For passion fruit you should put it at the center of the hole,mumea wa karakara unafaa kunyalwa kahikahi wa mlingoti
Not sideways but at the center,si kanda ila kahikahi
Place it at the center of the hole so that you dont alter the dimensions,ika kahikahi ili usitatize umbo
The measurements of the hole are important,Ubomu wa wina pia umafaa kuzingatiwa
Someone may have measured two meters by two meters,angine andapima mita mbiri kwabiri
But once you have planted you realize its one meter on one side and two meters on the other,Lakini ukishanyala undapata ni here mita mwenga kwa mbiri
You realize that you have an interval between the plants,undapata kuna nafasi kahi kahi ya mimea
Now you have planted the plants,sasa hunyala yo mimea
Water the plants,mwagira madzi kwa mimea
It has rained lucky for you,kula kundanya mvula ni toto
For us here we have used button drippers,sino huhumira mbimu ya bitton drippers
We have installed a good system so that we have water 247,hudzika mfumo mudzo ili hupate madzi siku nzima
We usually monitor and check,mala nyinji hua hunalolera
We just touch the soil and feel the moisture content using our hands,humatsimba mtsanga kumanya kwango cha madzi kuhimira mkono
Once you have watered youre good to go,ukishamwaga madzi io ni tosha
The next step is trellising and general management,Hatua ingine ni usimamizi mudzo
Trellising is supporting the plants,inaamanisha ku kuikira mimea milingoti
You can see we have used some ropes,unaona huhumira kamba
On these ropes you dont tie directly to the plants,kamba zizi kufunga kwenye mimea
We use a thing that we put to the ground,Hunahumira kitu kiricho ikwa hotsi
Then we start aligning the plant to the rope,kisha hunaika mihi kulingana na zo kamba
This is the wire now that connects to the rope which supports the plants,zizi ndo waya zimazuia yo mimea
The reason for this is because we realize that when we use these ropes to tie it gets to a point that,Sababu ya ii ni kala ukihumira kamba tahu inafika wakati
The plants are now starting to shrink at that place,mimea inabanana hatu hamwenga
Its like you are choking the plant by its neck,ni here unaishongola kwa singo
You are also blocking the movement of nutrients,pia unazuia mwendo wa virutubishi
When the plant starts thickening you realize it is being restricted at that point,wo muhi ukifura hatu ni kala chakurya kakikira
Yes I understand,eeh naelewa
That is one of the reasons we decided to change,io ndo sababu ya sisi kugaluza
Usually we prefer you use synthetic materials or you can use organic ones,hukala hunawasihi kuhumura kamba zirizo na urahisi wa kola
Organic options like coconut chips are nice,here kamba za minazi
Coconut chips are very organic and effective,kamba za minazi ni mbidzo
Once the plant has grown to a certain level like this one and we cut it the coconut chips will drop down and decompose,muhi ukishakula hunakata kamba za mnazi ili zigwe hotsi zole
But for the plastic synthetic ones they are harder to reuse,ila za plastiki si rahisi kuzihumira karehi
After they have served their purpose you cannot easily reuse them,baada ya kuhimika si rahisi kuzihumira kaheri
This is due to the condition they have been exposed to,ii ni kwa kua zinatsanika kwasababu ya hali ya mazingira
We also ensure they do not harm the plants,pia kahumala zisidhuru mimea
Now the other part is pruning,kitu kingine ni ukatadzi wa tagaii
Pruning is a very critical stage,ukatadzi wa vitagahi ni muhimu sana steji ii
This is because you are introducing a cut to the plant,kwa sababu unakata kata muhi
That cut becomes an opening for vectors and diseases to enter,Hario katwa huricha nafasi ya uambukizi wa makongo
When pruning we encourage people to remove any other shoots that grow from the plant,wakati wa kukata vitagai hunashauri akurima komboza vichipuko vyosi
This is done until the plant has reached the wire,ii huhendeka mpka mumea ufikire kamba
From the ground to the wire the plant should have a single main stem,kombola hotsi hadi kwa waya kumamalikana Shina mwenga
Here we have used two main stems,hano humira mashina mairi
You can see two stems but there are no branches growing out of them below the wire,unaona mashina mairi lakini lakina vitagai tsini ya waya
Some people prefer to use one main stem,atu angine shina mwenga
When it reaches the wire they allow it to divide into two or more branches at that point,ikifika kwa wayairiche iriche itapakaze vitagai viri au vihahu
Yes I can also see,Jeri nalola
The double stems can be attacked by a disease on one side,mashina mairiganaweza kuvamiwa na adudu pande mwenga
If this happens you can cut from the main stem,Kata kwenye shina kuu
Since its the main stem you can get another piece from there,kwa sababu kundamera ringine
This way you dont need to buy a whole new plant to replace it,vivi si lazima ugule au umyale mumea mungine
So you are encouraging the double stem method,kwa vivyo hunasisitiza uhumire mashina mairi
The double stem style is good for passion fruit production,io nimbidzo kunyala karakara
Now you must discourage any new shoots from the main stem,usiruhisu vichupuko kumera kwenye shina kuu
Once it has reached the wire you can start encouraging the shoots to come out,ikifika kwa waya ruhusu imere
There is one thing I forgot to mention,kuna kitu nisahau kuwaambira
Every passion fruit plant produces three things,kila mumea wa karakara unamboza vitu vihahu
A tender shoot a flower and a fruit,kichipukolua na tunda
If its not a flower it will produce a shoot,kala si lua undapata chipuko
However the flower and the fruit usually come at the same time,lua na tunda hudza wakati mwenga
You can see here we have a shoot and here we have a flower,Lola kuna chipuko na lua
You will keep on discouraging the new shoots,usiriche kukale na vichupuko
Once you have left the main shoots they are called laterals,vikishakula kombola kwa shina kuu huihwa vitagaii
This is a lateral,ii ni vitahaii
If you count from the base up to 15 meters,ukihesabu kombola tsini mita 15
You should have anywhere between 25 to 30 laterals,unafaa kupata vitagai 25 hadi 30
But for the export market they care more about the taste inside than the outside appearance,Ila masoko ga konze humala utamu urio ndani si mwonekano
You can advise anyone starting out that passion fruit farming is a good choice,unaeza himiza atu kala ukurima wa karakara ni chaguo ridzo
They will never regret it,kawanda dziutha
You can start with passion fruits and they are great for farming,Unaeza anza na matunda ga karakara kwa sababu ni ukirima mudzo
There are three key things to consider,kuna vitu vihahu muhimu vya kulolera
The first one is the availability of water,cha kwanza ni madzi
Passion fruits require water for irrigation throughout the year,mapashoni gana uhitaji wa madzi ga kunyunyizira mwaka mzima mfululizo
Without water your crops will face many problems,bila madzi mimera yakwako indapata thabu nyinji
So water is the first important factor,kwavizho madzi ndo kitu cha kwanza muhimu
The second one is your feeding program,cha hiri ni jinsi uipazho chakurya
You need a good feeding system,Unahitaji mbinu mbidzo yakuipa chakurya
You should use both granular fertilizers and liquid fertilizers,Unafaha kuhumira mbolea za tembe na za madzi
You can also use manure especially organic manure which helps passion fruits grow better,Unaeza humira mbolea Kikaboni inayosaidia karakara kunawiri tototo
The third key factor is the quality of the seedlings,kitu kiricho na umuhimu ni ubora wa miche
The quality of the seedlings will determine the quality of the harvest,ubora wa miche undareha mavuno madzo
Just like in other businesses the foundation matters,ni here biashara zingine msingi mudzo ni lazima
As for the market I thought it was part of these factors,kwa soko ni mambo gaga gaga tu
No the market is not a problem,soko si shida
You can start farming and find the market along the way,unaeza anza kurima na kutafuta soko badae
Even if you go to a local market you will see passion fruits being sold,ta ukenda soko umdapata karakara zikiguzwa
For example on the streets they sell three fruits for 50 shillings,mfano sokoni matunda mahahu ganaguzwa kwa shilingi 50
That would be around 150 to 200 shillings per kilogram,io ni here kilo 150 au kilo 200
And they are making a profit,na anatengeza faida
So there is no worry about the market it is guaranteed,usikale na shaka kuhusu soko soko rinapatikana
Farmers can grow passion fruits without fear because the market is available,akurima anaeza nyala karakara bila wasiwasi wa soko
Now let's talk about the next part seed preparation,sasa hinde hunene huhusu pande ya hiri ya kutayarisha mbeyu
You are a seed propagator and also a farmer,umkurima wa kutengeza mbeyu na wa kunyala
You work with over a thousand farmers who get their seedlings from you,Unahenda kazi na akurima elfu mwenga wanaopata mbeyu kombola kwako
Among the many farms you've visited you noticed something,go mashamba hukirira hutambua kitu
What is the common issue or question that farmers have when it comes to seedlings,ni maswali higo akurima huuza kuhusu mbeyu
What is the secret to success with passion fruit farming,Ni siri hio ya kufanikiwa kwa akurima wa kunyala karakara
Why are your seedlings special and why should people come to you for seedlings,mbeyu zenu zina manufaa higo ta atu angule kwenu
Passion fruit is a tricky plant to grow but also very easy if you do things the right way,Matunda ga karakara si rahisi kunyala lakini pia ni rahisi ukihenda vitu njira mbidzo
For example you might see a passion fruit plant growing naturally perhaps because birds dropped seeds there,mfano unaezapata muhi wa karakara umera kwa mbeyu zirizo bwagwa na ndenge
That plant might thrive producing highquality fruits,uo muhi unaeza kula na komboza matunda ga hali ya dzulu
But if you try to plant passion fruits on your farm even using the same seeds the results may not be as good,ukihumira mbeyu zizo undapata kaindakupa mazao madzo
This happens because passion fruit is affected by diseases and these diseases spread easily,sababu hukala mumea wa karakara huvamiwa rahisi na makongo
The diseases are carried by insects or other things around the farm,makongo gaga hurehwa na vidudu virivyo mundani
When you grow only passion fruits the pests will focus on your crops making it harder to control the problem,ukinyala karakara hakeye vidudu vindavamia na indakala vigumu kuviomboza
Thats why its important to start the right way and take good care of the plants,ni muhimu kuhumira mbinu inayofaa
We don't just use any seeds to grow passion fruits,kafuhumira mboyu zozosi kunyala karakara
There are two types of seeds we work with the rootstock and the scion,hunahumira aina mbiri za mbeyu Mizizi na vitagai
For the rootstock we use a type of passion fruit called bitter yellow,kwa mizizi humahumira mbeyu ya bitter yello
This yellow fruit is very bitter even when ripe,matunda gaga hukala tsatsu ta gakiiva
Even if you add sugar it remains bitter,ta ukiongeza sukati bado hukala tsatsu
This type is the best for rootstock because it has strong roots,Ii aina ni mbizo kwasababu hukala na mizizi ya nguvu
Its roots spread widely and are wellsuited for dry areas,mizizi husambaa tototo na hueza kumera kutu kuriko na ukame
These roots take in nutrients efficiently helping the plant grow well,ii mizizi hufyonza virutubishi tototo kuchangia muhi kumera tototo
For the scion we use the purple passion fruit variety because it is in high demand,Kwa vitagai hunahumira purple passion kwa sababu inahenzekana sana
We graft the purple variety onto the bitter yellow rootstock,hunatsanganya mbeyu ya purple na yellow
This combination ensures a healthy and productive plant,utsanganyi uu hutengeza muhi urio na mazao madzo
After grafting we move on to planting the seedlings with proper spacing,Baada ya kupandikiza unanyala miche kwa kuricha nafasi
Passion fruit plants are spaced 3 meters apart from plant to plant,miche ya karakara hunyalwa kwa kuricha nafasi ya mita Mwenga kwa kila muhi
From row to row the spacing is 2 meters,kwa kila mtaro richa nafasi ya mita mbiri
This spacing is important because passion fruit plants spread out widely as they grow,zizi nafasi ni muhimu kwa sababu muhi wa karakara husambaa hatu ha bomu unahoku
However from 15 meters going further you realize that the quality of fruits reduces,ila mita 15 na zaidi idadi ya matunda ganagoombola hupungua
It will be a very small issue but they wont grow well because you have overloaded them,Ni jambo tite ila kaindamera tototo kwa kala zibanana sana
You have to keep replenishing the nutrients which is not very sufficient,undakala unaenderera huijiza virutubishi ambyo kaindakala mbinu mbizo
Thats why we encourage proper spacing,ndo mana hunawasihi muhumire nafasi mbidzo
For a single post two plants should be supported,kwa mlingoti mwenga unafaa kukimu mimea miri
For two posts they should support at least two plants on each side,kwa milingoti miri inafaa kukimu mimea miri kila upande
Like I am seeing from this place you can observe the same everywhere,ninavyoona kwa nafasi ii undapata ni vivyo kila hatu
That means from one post to the other is six meters,inamaanisha kala kombola mlingoti mwenga hadi mungine ni mita sita
Now lets go to the wire,Sasa hinde kwa waya
For the wires we use galvanized wire,kwa waya hunahumira waya sisizo na kutu
We use galvanized wire because it prevents rust,hunahumira waya zizi kwasababu kazi pata kutu
Rust usually causes or promotes the development of diseases,kutu husababisha kukala kwa makongo
These diseases are one of the issues we try to avoid,Makongo gaga ndo sababu hunakosa kuzihumira
They can be managed but its difficult to handle them once they start,ganaeza ku tibiwa lakini ni viguma wakati gakianza
After you have done the spacing you plant your plants,baada ya kutengeza nafasi unaeza anza kunyala
Usually we use composed manure in buckets,kawaida hunahumira mbolea ya kawaida kwenye ndoo
You can also add phosphorus fertilizer,unaeza onjeza mbolea ya fosiforasi
As a preventive measure you can add Trichoderma,na pia ya kuzuia unaeza himira trichoderma
It will help you prevent Sodium Wilt,indawezesha kuzuia upungufu wa Sodiamu kwenye mtsanga
At least it will manage it because you cannot completely get rid of it,ina baha kwa sababu si rahisi kumarigiza ri tatizo
Another thing you must add is a nematicide,kitu kingine ni lazima uonjeze nematicide
You use the nematicide to kill nematodes,Nematicide huhumika kulaga nematodes
This ensures your plant is free of nematodes,inawezesha mimea kutovamiwa na nematodes
Nematodes usually attack the passion fruit plants,nematodes huvamia mimea ya karakara
They block the uptake of nutrients in the plants,hufunga uwezo wa mimea kunyonya virutubishi
Its like they hold the plants neck stopping food from passing through,ni here huzia shingo ya mumea kusababisha chakurya kisikihe
This is what happens when nematodes attack your plant,Ii ndo huhendeka mimea ikivamiwa na nematotodes
For passion fruit plants it is important to plant them correctly,kwa mimea ya karakara ni muhimu kunyala kwa mbinu ifaayo
Follow these steps to ensure good growth and avoid issues,tuiriza mkondo uu ili kuwezesha mimea imere tototo
It blocks the neck,inaziya yo singo
It's like holding the neck so food is not going through,ni here kuziya shingo ta kakurya kisichire
Yes the plant cannot take up food,ni jezi mumea kauweza kukiza chakurya
Yes they cant absorb nutrients,ni jeri kaiweza kukiza virutubishi
Now those are the three additives I would encourage you to use,zizi ndo vionjezi vihahu ndo unafaa kuhumira
Let me take you back,hinde huuye nyuma
You mentioned manure,uhadza mbolea
We had manure before planting,kunaika mbolea kbla ya kunyala
What quantities of manure are best and which manure is the best,kiasi chani cha mbolea na mbolea hizo ni mbodzo
You have good manure even for human beings,hata binadamu ana mbolea mbidzo
That one is a very dangerous approach,io ni mbinu hatari
People will argue with you,atu adhapingana na ue
Good manure means it is mixed,mbolea mbidzo ni mtsanganyiko
Its not just from cows alone,si kombola kwa ngombe hakeye
Its not just from sheep alone,si kombola kwa gonzi hakeye
Its a mixture of cattle manure,ni mtsanganyiko wa mbolea ya ngombe
We aim to guide and help farmers earn a decent living from farming,Rengo rehu ni kuelekeza akurima wapate mapato madzo kombola kwa ukurima
Faith Agro simplifies farming terminologies and science into a language that a peasant farmer can understand,Faith agro inarahisisha sayansi ili akurima watsini waweze kuelewa
We ensure farmers do not struggle when going to the market,Hunahakikisha akurima kawang'anga'na wachenda sokoni
Hello friends,kamnautu enzangu
We grow maize or corn for the long rain maize season,hunanyala matsere wakati wa msimu wa mvula bomu
This was done alongside us so that we can compare,ino ihendwa hamwenga ili huweze kufananisha
We did this so that we can compare our results with yours to give all of us hope,huhenda vivi ili huweze kufananisha matokeo gehu na genu ili hupate Matumaini
We know for sure that about 70 of you got it right,hunamanya kala asilimia 70 mpata tototo
However approximately 30 of us got it wrong,ila asilimia 30 ya sisi hukosera
As is the norm ours is to share with you how to do it the right way,jukumu rehu ni kuwafundisha huhenda vitu kwa nzira inayofaa
We aim to show you how others failed and share with you how others succeeded,huwaonyesa jinsi atu anjine afaulu na arau ambao kawafaulire
Success in farming is very sweet especially if it is success in maize farming,Kufanikiwa kwa ukurima ni kudzo hususani katika nyaladzi wamatsere
With that we will have helped you get it right next time,kuhumira gago hundakala hudzawasaidia usawa wakati mungine
As we always say to succeed in maize farming do it right the first time,kwa kawaida ku faulu katika ukurima wa kunyala matsere henda sawa wakati wakwanza
Now let us have a quick recap of the events that happened during this maize farming project,sasa hinde hufikirie go ga nyuma cho kirichohendeka katika Mradi wa unyali wa matsere
Remember this is in the best interest of all farmers doing maize farming as a business,kumbukeni kala inamanufaa kwa kila akurima anaohenda ukurima wamatsere
These are the steps we followed we started with fast plowing,Zizi ndo hatua hu humira huanza na kurima kwanza
When plowing we use whatever plowing implement is available to you,wakati wa kurima hunarima chombo chochosi kinachopatikana
It could be a tractorpulled disc or moldboard plow,inaeza kala tingatinga au jembe ra ubao ra ukungu
It could be small handheld tillers,inaeza humira vidzembe vya mukono
Others will use ox plows,angine huhumira ng'ombe kurima
Some may dig the farm by using jambes or hoes,angine huhumira majembe kunyala
After that allow weeds to dry and decompose using a short dry period that normally follows,baada ya gago richa nyasi sikauke na kola wakati wa dzua
Then allow the wheat to grow normally,alafu richa ngano imere kawaida
A very short rain season appears of about one week or two weeks which allows weeds to grow,Msimu mtite hudza baada ya wiki mwenga au mbiri inayosababisha nyasi kumera kaheri
After that apply herbicides that kill coochi grass and other growing weeds,baada ya gago mwaga dawa ya kulaga nyasi zimerazo
Then do the second plowing,alafu rima mara ya hiri
Second plowing incorporates dry and decomposing plants into the soil,kurima kwa hiri huwezesha mboleaiombolayo kwa nyasi za kola kuinjira kwenye mtsanga
After second plowing harrow the farm,Ukisharimarigiza ku rima tengeza mitaru kwenye munda
Then plant your seed immediately,Na hamba mbeyu zako vohango
Don't forget to use certified hybrid long season maize seed,msisahau kuhumira mbeyu mbeyu ya msimu mure
I want to ask you to observe the standard spacing allowed for professional maize farming,namala mulole urichaji wa nafasi unaohumuka kwa ukurima wa hali ya dzulu
Don't just plant anyhow,usinyale kiholelaholela
Ideal spacing is relative and we can have several spacings that are acceptable professionally,Unyali mudzo ni kuricha nafasi mbizo ya kiufundi
Let us discuss the two common ones,hinde hugombe kuhusu aina mbiri zinazohumika
The first is 75 cm or 25 ft from row to row and 25 cm or 08 ft from plant to plant within the row one seed per hole or planting station,ya kwanza ni kuhumira sentimita 75 ama futi 25kwa mtaro mwenga Na sentimita 25 ama futi 08 kwa kila mumea ukihumira mbeyu mwenga kila wina
The second spacing type is 75 cm or 25 ft from row to row and 50 cm or 16 ft from one planting station to another with two seeds per planting station or hole,mbinu ya hili ya urichaji wa nafasi ni sentimita 75 ama futi 25 kwa mtaro na sentimita 50 ama futi 16 kila wina unyale mbeyu mbiri
Plant population per row for one seed per hole is 253,idadi ya mimea kila mtaro wa mbeyu mwenga ni 253
Plant population per row for two seeds per hole is 254,idadi ya mimea kila mtaro wa mbeyu mbiri kila wina ni 254
The plant population per acre for one seed per hole is 21000,idadi ya mimea kila eka irio na mbeyu mwenga kila wina ni 21000
That is one seed per hole,Io ni mbeyu mwenga kila wina
The plant population per acre when you are using a spacing of two seeds per hole is 21590,idadi ya mimea kwa eka ukihumira mbeyu mbiri kila wina ni 21590
What this means is that the plant population per hectare for one seed per hole is 53099,ii inamaanisha idadi ya mimea hekta ukihumira mbeyu mwenga kila wina ni 53099
The plant population per hectare if you are using two seeds per hole is 53039,idadi ya mimea kwa hekta ukihumira mbeyu mbiri kila wina ni 53039
Planting fertilizer should be one that contains high phosphate,Mbolea ya kunyalira ni ikale na Fosfati ya hali ya dhulu
In our case we normally use 46 P,Kwa kesi yehu hunahumira asimilia ya 46 ya fosifati
You can also use a blend of 23230 but the quantity will be higher because of the low percentage of phosphate,unaeza humira ya 23230 lakini Wingi undakala dzulu kwa sababu ya uchache wa
For us we applied 5 grams per plant and the total was 106 kg per acre,kwa sisi hunahumira gramu 5kwa mumea kwa jumla ni kilo 106 kwa eka mwenga
After that you will be required to spray preemergent or early postemergent herbicides,baada ya io unahenzekana kumwaga dawa ya kulaga nyasi
This should be done before the fiveleaf stage as long as the soil has moisture,inafaa kuhendwa kabla ya steji ya tsano ya makodza mtsanga ukikala bado unamadzi
Before the fiveleaf stage means you can spray from the day of planting before germination or after germination until the fiveleaf stage,Kabla ya steji ya tsano ya makodza kuchomoka unaeza nyunyuzia dawa siku ya kunyaka ama kabla ya mimea kuchomoza
If these herbicides are sprayed when the soil is not moist they will not work,ukinyunyiza dawa kala mutsanga kauna madzi dawa kaindahenda kazi
Then we applied top dressing fertilizer at 6 weeks,kisha hunaika mbolea ya dzulu baada ya wiki sita
In our case we used urea which contains 46 nitrogen,sino hunahumira mbolea ya urea irio na asilimia 46 ya Nitrojeni
Red was 5 grams per plant and the total per acre was 1075 kg or 21 bags of 50 kg,yosi ni gramu 5 kwa mumea idadi yosi kwa eka ni kilo 1075 au magunia 21 ya kilo 50
We repeated this 2 weeks later with the same amount of top dressing fertilizer,Hwe uyira baada ya wiki mbiri kaheri na idadi ioio ya mbeyu ya dhulu
Note however that if you use two seeds per hole the fertilizer per planting station or hole is 10 grams,ukihumira mbeyu mbiri kila wina undahumira gramu 10 kila wina
Take time to subscribe to our channel if you are new or if you have not done so already,haleni muda wenu muingire kwa tovuti yehu kala umujeni
Since we have not harvested yet our anticipated yield is 63505 kg per acre,takala bado haudzavuna hunatarajia mavuno ga kilo 63505 kwa eka
This gives a yield of 71 bags of 90 kg dry maize per acre,indahupa mavuno ga maginia 71kwa kilo 90 ga matsere kwa eka
As you can all see maize farming is an enjoyable venture if you do it right,mnavoona ukurima wa matsere ni biashara mbidzo
At the current price of 3500 Kenya Shillings or 2734 USD per bag of 90 kg dry maize the gross return per acre will be 250000891 Kenya Shillings,kwa bei ya 3500 pesa ya kenya au 2734 pesa ya marekani kwa kila gunia ra kilo 90 undapata faida ya 250000891 pesa ya kenya
This is equivalent to 190060 USD,ii ni pesa 190060 pesa ya marekani
Net profit after all expenses have been deducted will be 198000891 Kenya Shillings per acre,gharama yosi ikihunguzwa undapata 198000891 pesa ya kenya
This is equivalent to 1553 USD net profit per acre,Ii ni sawa na faida ya 1553 pesa ya marekani
This you can achieve in 5 months of farming,ii indaweza pata ndani ya miezi 5 ya kunyala
Maize if you do just 10 acres you can spend 520000 Kenya Shillings equivalent to 4062 USD,ukihumira eka 10 undahumira shilingi 520000 sawa na 4062 pesa ya marekani
Net profit will be 19889916 Kenya Shillings from 10 acres,faida yosi ni shilingi 19889916 kwa eka 10
For those using USD this is equivalent to 15538 USD net profit from 10 acres of land in five months,ahumirao pesa za marekani ni sawa na pesa 15538 kwa eka kumi ndani ya miezi 5
As you can see farming maize is a profitable venture but only if you know how to do it right,mnavoona ukurima wa matsere unafaida mbidzo
That is why we take time to talk about the subject again and again until all the farmers get it right,ndo mana hunahala muda wehu kugomba kila mara ili akurima wanufaike
A question to all farmers is always farm the size of land you can be able to manage,swali kwa akurima osi humirani ubomu wa shamba unaoweza kuukimu
Thank you and welcome,asanteni na mnakaribishwa
So tell us the other stories to do with passion fruit farming today bro,Huambire kuhusu ukurima wa ma tunda ga karakara
How is passion taking passion fruit businesses,biashara ya karakara ukihivyo
The fruits right now are fetching between 100 to 120,go matunda ganaguzwa kwa 100 au 120
Yes because it has some scarcity,nivivyo kwasababu inaeleweka
Okay and when it is at worst how much does a kg cost at once,kala biashara i tsini undaguza kwa bei hio
There are two prices the aggressive farmer will get between 80 and 100,kuna bei mbiri ni kuanzira 80 au 100
If you are lazy enough not to look for the market,kala umukaha kuhenda kazi
you can get anything below 80 shillings downwards,undapata 80 kwenda tsini
There can never be a surplus of this food,kakueza kukala na unji wa kiki chakurya
The only thing is overreliance on brokers,Shida bomu ni kutegemea aguzi sana
Yes brokers are the main people who will discourage farmers,aguzi ndo huvunza morali akurima
So if you can go a step further and look for the market,kwavivyo ukitafuta soko mwenye
approach the market directly you're going to get your cash and good cash,ukiguza mwenye sokoni undapata pesa mbidzo
You will realize that anything you sell per kilo puts you at an advantage compared to selling pieces,Undamanya kala ukiguza kwa kilo undapata faida mbizo
So that one it is something that is well quantifiable,kwa io undakala na uhakika
Do we have an export market or are we just dealing with the local market,kuna soko ra konze ama ni soko ra mumu kwa mumu
Which market are we dealing with,hunahumira soko hiro
So passion fruit is a lucky fruit you suppose to market,kwa vivyo matunda ga karakara ni madzo kuguza
Every market has its own demand,kila soko rina mahitaji ga kwake
Yes for the local market they require a fruit that is very sweet,soko ra mumu mumu humala matunda garigo tamu
At the same time they require a mediumsized fruit,na kisha wanamala garigo na ubomu wa usawa
For the exports they require high quality don't look at the sweetness as much,Soko ra konze humala ubora kawamala utamu
Once you have good quality passion fruit,ukikala na karakara ga ubora mudzo
the export market does not focus on the appearance,soko ra konze karimala mwonekano mudzo
They do not mind the looks as much they just want something that is sweet,kawalola mwokekano wanamala kitu kiricho tamu
However you will find that some customers focus on the appearance,ila undapata ateja wanalola mwonekano
If the fruit is very purple and smooth they may dislike it because they assume it is not sweet,tunda risirokala na rangi mbizo kavariheza kwasababu wanaamini kala si tamu
This process is simple,Ii mbinu ni rahisi
You only need three people to plant an acreone for the fertilizer one for scouting and one for covering the seeds with soil,Atu ahahu ndo anamalikana kunya eka mwengamwenga wa mbolea mmwenga wa kunyala na mwenga wa kufukira mbeyu na mtsanga
Dont you think this spacing is too big,dze mnafikiria kala zi nafasi ni bomu
No the spacing is not too big,Hata zi nafasii ta si bomu
Remember this maize variety is short,mukumbuke kala i aina ya matsere ni gara matite
When you count the number of leaves they are fewer and their placement is slightly shorter,ukihesabu namba ya makodza ni machache na kuika kwake kunamala hatu hatite
The reason we leave enough space is to ensure the leaves can capture enough sunlight,sababu ya kuricha nafasi ya kutosha ni ili makodza gapate nafasi ya kutosha ya kupata mwanga wa dzua
When you observe the pattern of the leaves they grow in a single direction to maximize sunlight capture,ukilola muundowa makodza hukala ganamera kwa mwelekeo mmwenga ili gapate mwanga wadzua wakutosha
The sun rays move in one direction rising here and setting on the other side and the plant adapts to this pattern,Mwanga wa dzua huombola pande mwenga na kutua pande injine ii mimea huzoera muundo uoo
After the maize has produced cobs the leaves shift direction to better access sunlight,Baada ya matsere kuomboza viguguta makodza hugaluza Mwelekeo ili kupata mwaga wa dzua tototo
The leaves tend to bend towards the light as it is the light that powers photosynthesis which converts energy into food,makodza hukomboka na kighaluka kuriko na mwanga wa dzua ndo hupa mimea nguvu ya kutengeza chakuria Kwa mchakato wa usanisinuru
Ambrose what you are telling us is true,Ambrose chenye umahuambira ni jeri
However according to many farmers land is expensive and they want to get the most yield for their effort,kwa akurima anji mashamba ni ghali na wanamala wapate mavuno manji kwa bidii waihumirayo
When I look at this spacing while you have explained it well what is the actual spacing here,Nikilola kuhusu kuika kwa nafasi nielezea tototo kuno kuika kwa nafasi ni hivyo
First of all it is three feet,Ra kwanza ni kuika futi tahu
But three feet is too much Ambrose,lakini kuika futi tahu ni ni nyinji Ambrose
Remember we are planting only one seed per hole,kumbukeni kala hunanyala mbeyu mwenga kila wina
I agreeone seed per hole,nakubaliana na ue kala mbeyu mwenga kwa kila wina
But you can see this spacingthis is one this is one this is one and this is one,lakini mnona ii nafasi ii ni mwengaino ni mwenga na ingine mwenga
This is a lot of space,ii ni nafasi bomu
Ambrose I would suggest that instead of three feet it should be two feet by one foot since we are planting one seed,Ambrose nakuhimiza hutumie futi mbiri kuriko huhumire tahu futi mbiri kwa fiti mwenga kwasababu hunanyala mbeyu mwenga mwenga
Just to cut you short we also did the same demonstration on the other side with a spacing of two feet,Kukukata kauli huhumira mbinu io io ura mungine kwa kuika nafasi ya futi mbiri
It gave us only one cob per plant,ihupa kuguguta kimwenga kwa mumea mumwenga
The essence of the larger spacing is to help the farmer save on seeds and maximize output,sababu ya kuhumira nafasi bomu ni ili akurima waweze kuhumira mbeyu chachr na kupatata mavuno madzo
Today we are not concerned with how many seeds you plant but rather with how much yield you get,Rero hahulola idadi ya mbeyu ya kunyala ila idadi ya mavuno undagopata
The seed vendors are promoting a narrative that requires farmers to use 10 kilograms of seed per acre,Aguzi wa mbeyu anadzinufaisha kwa kuamba akurima ahumire kilo kumi za mbeyu kila eka
Here we are talking about using only six kilograms of seed per acre which will give you a higher yield,Hano hunamba kala akurima wahumire kilo sita za mbeyu kila eka ili upate mvuno ga hali ya dzulu
In fact you can triple the yield compared to someone who used 10 kilograms of seed,kwanza unaeza pata mavuno mara tahu zaidi na mutu ariehumira kilo kumi za mbeyu
When you plant at a spacing of two feet by one foot you only get one cob per plant,ukinyala na nafasi ya futi mbiri kwa futi mwenga undapata kiguguta kimwenga kila mumea
However when you leave adequate spacing you can get up to three cobs per plant and spend fewer seeds,ila ukiricha nafasi ya kutosha undaweza kupata viguguta vihahu kila mumea na undahumira mbeyu chache
If you squeeze the plants together you only get one cob per plant,uki bana mimea undapata kiguguta kimwenga kwa mumea
If you provide enough space you can get more yield,ukiricha nafasi bomu undapata mavuno zaidi
Viewers you see what he is trying to tell us,Alolezi mnaona kitu awambiracho
Once you squeeze them this is three feet by one foot,ukibana hamwenga zizo ni futi tahu kwa futi mwenga
We are planting only one seed per hole,Hunanyala mbeyu mwenga kila wina
When you plant one seed per hole you'll get something like this,Ukinyala mbeyu mwenga kwa kila wina undapata kitu here kiki
You see we are having this cob,unaona kala hunapata kiguguta kiki
We are having this cob and we are having this cob,hunapata kiguguta kiki na kiki
It was bringing a third one,were unareha kiguguta kingine cha hahu
We are having this cob and we are having this one,huna kiguguta kiki na kiki
This one gave us one maybe accidentally,Uno wehupa kiguguta kimwenga labla kwa bahati mbaya
You see we are having this cob and we are seeing this,unona huna kiguguta kiki na hosi hunaona
So that means when you don't squeeze of course you can get good yields,Inamaanisha kala sihobana undapata mavuno madzo
Ambrose as we wind up we were still discussing the spacing and how it works,Ambrose vyo hunavyoelekea kumarigiza bado hunanena kusu kuricha nafasi na uhendadzi kazi wa kwake
Remember maize is equally prone to attack by insect pests especially the fall armyworm,kumbukeni kala matsere hukula na uvamizi wa adudu here kiwavijeshi
Today because of planting outside the normal planting season you can see the results,rero kwasababu hunyala konze wa msimu wa kunyala hunaona matokeo
The normal planting season is during the rainy season,msimu wa kunyala huwa ni msimu wa mvula
This area has been very dry but has been instrumental in showcasing this amazing variety,gaga maeneo were ga kamae lakini hugatengeza ili kuwaonyesa zizi aina mbozo
When you spray once it offers you group protection for a period of four weeks,Ukinyunyiza dawa ya madzi hurinda mimea kwa muda wa wiki nne
As I have said this maize if I count the number of weeks has grown up to this stage,Nirivyogomba gaga matsere nikihesabu zo wiki gakula kwa muda uo
It is around 10 weeks,Ni here wiki kumi
That is 10 weeks which translates to two months and two weeks,wiki kumi ni here miezi miri na wiki mbiri
So we still have an extra period,ta vyo bado huna muda zaidi
I want you to observe closely,Namala mulole kwa uhehi
Where we have a spacing of three feet by one foot we have two cobs,huricha nafasi ya futi tahu kwa futi mwenga na huna viguguta viri
Now when we reach areas where we planted at one by two feet we are getting one cob,hukifika hatu ambao hwenyala futi mwenga kwa mbiri hunapata kiguguta kimwenga
It has given us one cob sure,ihupa kiguguta kimwenga
So you realize however much you squeeze it is at the expense of two extra cobs,ukibana mimea undapata kala unainjiza hasara ya viguguta viri
At the end of the day this is the narrative most farmers have been going by,mwisho wa siku akurami huhenda gaga
Farmers want to exploit 10 kilograms of seed but you end up being tempted to oversqueeze your maize,akurima humala kuhumira kilo kumi na ii huwahenda wabane matsere hamwenga
You then end up with a lower yield,inasababisha wapate mvuno kidogo
We urge our farmers to adhere to planting one seed per hole at a spacing of three feet by one foot,hunawahimiza akurima wanyale mbeyi mwenga kila wina kwa kuricha nafasi ya ya futi tahu kwa futi mwenga
Now looking at the onebytwofoot spacing it religiously gives us one cob per plant,hukilola ya futi mwenga kwa mbiri undapata indahupa kuguguta kimwenga kila mumea
This situation results in a farmer ending up with 15 bags,inasababisha akurima kupata magunia kumi na tsano
However with the threebyone spacing the same field can yield 35 to 40 bags,ila futi tahu kwa mwenga kwa munda uouo hunapata magunia 35 ama 40
The difference lies in the number of cobs produced,utofauti unaombola kwa idadi ya viguguta vipatikanavyo
A farmer planting with threebyone spacing achieves better yields by not oversqueezing the maize,mkurima anyalae futi tahu kwa mwenga anapata mavino manji kwa kutobana matsere
This is the language and narrative we are trying to encourage among our growers,ii ndo ushauri hunawawapa akurima wakati wa kunyala
There is no need to rush or oversqueeze,kakuna haja ya kuhenda haraka au ku bana matsere
Be careful be attentive and produce in the best way possible,kala na umakini ndo mupate mavuno kamili kwa njira ifaayo
This ensures you optimize and achieve the highest expected yield before entering the market,indawawezesha kupata mvuno ga hali ya dzulu kwabla ya kiguza sokoni
Now why should farmers grow and look for DK maize varieties,kwanoni akurima anafaa wanyale kwa kuhumira mbolea ya DK
Of recent we've had challenges with maize being intercepted at the border for issues such as aflatoxin,karibuni hukala na changamoto za matsere ku zuliwa kwenye boda kwa sababu gana kemikali inayoifiwa sumu ya Kuvu
Faith Agro ensures that farmers get products that are passportfree,Faith Agro huwezesha akurima kupata bidhaa zirizo kazimala urihe pesa ya pasipoti
DK maize is grown in Kenya Tanzania Zambia Congo and Burundi,Matsere ga DK hunyalwa kenya Tanzania zambia congo na burundi
In Kenya and Tanzania quality standards are stricter compared to other regions,Ubora wa bidhaa kenya na Tanzania hukala na sheria kali kuriko kutu kunjine
These countries want maize with a specific color stature and flour quality,Nchi zizi zinamala mbeyu zirizo na rangi na kimo maalimu na urio na unga mudzo
Above all they prioritize fly extraction,gosi gago pia hua wanamala gasigo na vidudu
The reason why most farmers are looking for DK triple seven is the flour extraction,sababu ya kala akurima anamala Dk triple seven ni utengezaji wa unga
With DK triple seven 100 kilograms of maize will give you 70 kilograms of grade one flour,Kilo 100 za matsere undapata kilo 70 za unga wa gredi mwenga
Other varieties give you only 45 kilograms of grade one flour,Aina zinjine indapata here kilo 45 za unga wa gredi mwenga
Imagine losing 25 kilograms of maize in flour extraction,fikiria kupata hasara ya kilo 25 usagaho unga
The flourtobran ratio for DK triple seven is 7030 while for other varieties it is 5545,matsere ga Dk undapata uwiano wa 7030 na aina ingine undapata uwiano wa 5545
Other varieties give more bran and less flour unless you are planting for animal feed,aina zingine zindakupa wiswa munji kuriko unga labda ukale unyala kutengeza chakurya cha anyama
If you are planting for millers DK triple seven is the best option,kala unanyala kwa ajili ya unga Dk triple seven ndo ifaayo
As we summarize millers have realized the benefits of DK maize,hukielekea mwisho aguzi wa unga vamanya umuhimu wa kunyala matsere ga Dk
Some farmers grow maize for animal feed leaving the maize to grow fully before harvesting,Akurima angine hunyala matsere ga kurisa anyama ao huricha matsere kumera kamili kabla ya kuvuna
Can the threebyonefoot spacing work for animal feed maize,futi tahu kwa mwenga inaeza kwa kinyala matsere ga chakurya cha anyama
Yes because the idea is to get more yields per acre,jeri ili kupata mavuno mangi kwa eka
For farmers growing maize for silage or animal feed DK varieties like DK 8031 DK 8033 DK 1989 and DK triple seven are available,kwa akurima akunya matsere ga kurisa anyama Dk 8031Dk 8033 Dk 1989 na Dk 777 zinapatikana
Faith Agro offers a variety for every farmer's needs,Faith Agro inakimu mahitaji ga akurima osi
The number one quality of DK maize is its drought tolerance,udzo mwenga wa matsere ga Dk ni kala inaweza kustahimili ukame
It also matures very quickly,na hukula haraka sana
Looking at this maize it is barely three months old,lola gano matsere gana here muda wa miezi mihahu hakeye
If you are planting for the fresh market you can start earning money within three months,kala unanyala soko risha unaweza anza kupata pesa ndani ya miezi mihahu
You can go to the bank and the manager will approve your loan because you already have collateral,unaeza nenda benki na meneja kukupa loni kwa sababu una dhamana kare
We call upon farmers to embrace Faith Agro inputs,hunawahimiza akurima kulaki Faith agro inputs

You are welcome to share any critiques in our learning platform,unakaribishwa ku hupa malalamishi gogosi kwa tovuti yehu
My name is Dipa tokaterica the farm Chief here at the farm Chief College,Dzina rangu ni Dipa Tokaterica chifu msimamizi wa the farm chief college
I want to share with you the good varieties of seeds which type of seed you to use to get good harvests,ninamala kuwa onyesa aina mbali mbali za mbeyu za kuhumira ili uwezw kupata mavuno madzo
That's what we are looking for this time around,gago ndo hunalolera msimu huu
We don't want to just engage into farming yet getting losses yet getting nothing from our sweat,kahunda henda mambo ga ukirima ambago ganda huomboza jasho na huhupa hasara
I want you to know which good variety of seeds you a farmer should use,namala mumanye mbeyu mbinzo akurima wanafaa kuhumira
Show you who is planning to get into farming to get a profit,ambayo indawawezesha akurima wapate faida
So this time around we are at our maize demonstration Gardens,wakati uu hukwenye shamba ra mafundisho wa matsere
I want to show you one of the best maize variety that you should use,namala niwaonyese mbeyu mbidzo za kuhumira
And that is DK C dkc 1989 and triple seven DK triple seven,Mbeyu zizo ni Dk C 1989 na triple seven Dk
I'm with the number one distributor that is Faith Agro inputs Uganda limited,nina ushirikiano na asambazi nambari mwenga wa Agro inputs Uganda limited
Mr Ambrose the director is going to teach us how when and what to do to get good harvests,Dairekta Ambrose andahufundisha cha huenda ili kupata mazao madzo
Welcome director Alvarez thank you very much,karibu dairekta Alvarez asante sanaa
Our dear farmers we are at our demonstration trying to transfer the knowledge,Akurima wehu hu haha henye maonyeso kuwaelimisha
From the technical side where we are and share that knowledge in order,hu haha kuwaelimisha kwa mpangilio
what you are seeing here it's a very good variety of maize seed called dkc 1989 dkc 90 8 7 8 9 8 9 8 9,chenye mnona mbere yenu ni aina za mbeyu za matsere ziifwadzo dkc 1989 dkc 90 87 89 89 89
what are the attributes of dkc 1989,udzo wa dkc 1989 ni huo
Our objective as Faith Agro inputs is that we need to be able to break the science,rengo rehu ra faith Agro inputs ni kuwarahisishia sayansi
Or to simplify that science in a language that our farmer can be able to understand,ama kurahisisha lugha ya sayansi ili wakurima waweze ku elewa tototo
So when you look at these varieties it's almost given between three four three four two three four cobs,mkilola zizi aina zinamboza kati ya tahu ama viguguta vine
Actually I'm not saying any plant that has only one cob but at least they are three or four,ila siimanisha kala mmea wenye kiguguta kimwenga ila vitahu ama vine
we've always told the Farmers that if you planted dkc 1989 you are able to harvest between 35 to 45 bags of maize,Hukala hukiambira akurima kala wakinyala na mbeyu ya dkc 1989 unaweza kupata kati ya magunia 35 na 45
I beg your pardon in one acre you will get between 35 bags to 45 bags of grain,Kuelewa zaidi eka mwenga unapata magunia kati ya 35 na 45 ga matsere
So when you talk of grain we are looking at those 100 kilogram bag of moist moisture content 135 percent,hukugomba kuhusu Nafaka unapata kilo 100 na unyevu asilimia 135
now how do we how do we arrive at that,hundafikiradze ho
it is simple logic you know in Uganda we have a very big challenge,ni rahisi unamanya uganda kuna changamoto bomu
Whereby most Farmers number one they don't know the size of an acer,akurima namba mwenga kawamanya ubomu wa eka
What is the size of an acer,Ubomu wa eka ni huo
Ask a farmer and he will tell you 210 the football pitch,uza mkurima andakwambira ni ubomu wa uwanja wa mpira
the size of an acer our dear Farmers you need to get 40 meters with it and length of 100 meters,Ubomu wa eka akurima wehu ni mita 40 upana na ure wa mita 100
you'll get a total area of 4000 square meters,undapata ubomu wa mita 4000 skwea
that one is one acre,io ndo eka mwenga
I beg your pardon to get an acre you get 40 meters with it and 40 meters length,Niuze eka mwenga ni mita 40 kwa mita 40
You mean an acre is not a square a has never been a square,unamaanisha kala eka mwenga ni skwea hataa Eka mwenga si skwea
there are three parameters through which one can get an acre,kuna paramita tahu za kuoata eka
Number one we have as I've already said is 40 meters by 100 meters,namba mwenga nigomba kare ni mita 40 kwa 100
number two is a 50 meters by 80 meters still we get the same answer,namba ya hiri ni mita 50 na mita 80
third method 66 feet by 660 feet,ya hahu ni futi 66 na futi 660
I had someone saying that if you get 210 feet by 210 feet that an acre,Nisikira mtu akigomba kala unaeza pata eka kwa futi 210 na 210
it is slightly less than an acre it is slightly less than an acre,Io ni chache ya eka kaifika eka mwenga
so the right the right way to determine the size of your acre by dear farmers is 40 meters,mbinu mbizo ya kuoata eka wakurima wangu ni mita 40
with meters a stride is one meter so you can make 40 strides,Msamba mmwenga ni mita mwenga kwavivyo unaeza pata misamba 40
how do we do the spacing I'll tell you that by 90 centimetersor one by three feet,Hunatengezadze nafasi nindawaambira ni sentimita 90 ama fiti mwenga ama fiti tahu
now when you are talking of one meter you find that there is a lot of decimals,mnagomba kuhusu mita undapata ina decimoli nyinji
Once we have that square footage it can fit very well into our planting instructions of one foot by three feet,hukipata skwea ya futi inainjirana na mipango yehu ya kunyala Ya futi
This means when we plant one foot by three feet each acre will be able to give us 44 lines,Inamaanisha kala unanyala futi menga kahi na futi tahu kila rka indahupa laini 44
Each line should have 330 holes,kila laini infaa kukala na wina 330
Yes each line should have 330 holes spaced one foot apart,ni jeri kila laini inafaa kukala na wina 330 kwa nafasi ya futi mwenga
How many lines are there in an acre,kuna laini ngahi ndani ya eka
There are 44 lines in an acre,kuna laini 44
Each line has 330 holes,kila laini ina wina 330
In total we shall be expecting a plant population of 14520 holes in an acre,Kwa jumla hundatarajia wina 14520 ndani ya eka
In each hole we plant one seed,kina wina hunanyala mbeyu mwenga
Ambrose mentioned that people often plant two to three seeds in each hole,Ambrose agomba kala atu hunyala mbeyu mbiri au tahu kila wina
What is the implication of planting two to three seeds per hole,Ina maana hiyo kunyala mbuyu mbiri au zaidi kila wina
It makes seed companies richer,iyo no kutajirisha tu kampuni
We believe in one analogy one seed one plant,Sino huamini kala mbeyu mwenga mumea mumwenga
That is why we take our time to ensure we deliver seed with a germination percentage of 100,sino huhala muda wehu ku hakikisha kila mbeyu ina uwezo asilimia 100 wa kumera
When you are dealing with Faith Agro be sure you are getting highquality seeds,Ukidzihusisha na Faith Agro kala na uhakika wa kupata mbeyu mbidzo
Now as I was saying with 14520 holes in an acre my dear farmer you will need six kilograms of DKC 1989 or six kilograms of DKC 777,kuhusu huricho gomba wina 14520 kwa ekari akurima wehu unahitaji kilo sita za dkc 1989 ama kilo sita za dkc 777
That quantity is sufficient for our grower,Io ndo idadi tosha ya kunyala
An extra four kilograms can pay labor for at least four workers,kilo nee zaidi inaweza riha afanyikazi wane
Labor for four workers would be sorted,Kibarua cha afanyikazi ane indatosha
Now assuming you have five acres you would save money equivalent to 20 kilograms of seeds,kwa mfano una eka tsano undaweza kuekeza pesa inayotoshana na kilo 20 za mbeyu za pesa
With 20 kilograms your planting expenses would be sorted out,Kilo 20 za mbeyu inaweza kugharamia gharama zosi
I hope you are listening very well,Navoya mnaniskira tototo
I hope you are watching very well,navoya mnalola tototo
I am with the director Mr Ambrose from Faith Agro Inputs,mimi ndimi dairekta Ambrose kombola Faith Agro input
These are the people who distribute a variety of seeds be it maize cabbage onions or watermelon,Aa ndo atu akugavya mbeyu tofauti tofauti za matserekabeji vitunguu na tikitiki madzi
He is trying to explain how we can get profits,Anajarubu kuwaeleza jinsi ya kupata faida
Farmers often experience losses,Akurima sanasana hupata hasara
People are getting tired of farming because of constant losses,atu hutsoka kurima kwa sababu ya hasara za kila mara
He is explaining the procedures and rules we should follow when planting or when doing maize farming,anaeleza mbinu na sheria za kutua za ukurima
We are introducing a very good variety of maize DKC 1989 and DKC 777,huna arehera mbeyu mbidzo za matsere dkc 1989 na dkc 777
Ambrose is explaining that by planting one seed per hole farmers can achieve better yields,Ambrose anaeleza kala kwa kunyala mbeyu mwenga kila wina akurima wandapata mazao madzo
Those who plant two to three seeds in one hole end up with lower productivity,ario wamanyala mbeyu mbiri au tahu kwa wina mmwenga hupata mavuno mabaya
For those who planted two seeds in one hole how many cobs can they get per plant,Ario wananyala mbeyu mbira kwa wina hupaya viguguta vingahi kwa mmea
With two seeds you will end up with an average of two to four cobs per plant,ukihumira mbeyu mbiri umdapata here viguguta viri ama vine kwa mmea
However with one seed you are better off,ila na mbeyu mwenga undapata zaidi
Planting one seed guarantees better yields compared to planting two or three seeds,ukinyala mbeyu mwrnga ni rahisi kupata mavuno madzo kuriko ukinyala mbiri ama tahu
Why are we discouraging planting two seeds per hole,mbona hunakashifu kunyala mbeyu mbiri kwa wina
In our farming system we are trying to encourage farmers to save on the amount of seed they use,kwa mfumo wa kunyala kwehu hunahimiza akurima kuhifadhi idadi ya mbeyu zinazohumika
By saving on seed inputs farmers can reduce costs and focus on better yields,kwa kuhifadhi mbeyu unahunguza garama na unapata mavuno madzo
The amount of rain for each brewery is important,idadi ya mvula kwa kila msimu ni muhimu
Remember in Uganda we are practicing rainfed agriculture,kumbuka kala uganda huna humira mufumo wa rain fed agriculture yani hunategemea mvula
With the rainfed group you are not guaranteed total utilization if you plant too many seeds,kwa mfumo wa rain fed kakuna uhakika wa mavuno ukihumira mbeyu nyinji
Therefore the best method as demonstrated here is planting one seed at a spacing of 30 by 90 centimeters or one by three feet,kwa vivyo njira mbidzo ni kunyala mbeyu mwenga ukiricha nafasi ya sentimita 30 na 90 ama futi mwenga kwa tahu
Now moving on to how we feed this group during planting,sasa hunanenda kwa ku risa kiki kikundi wakati wa kunyala
There is a fertilizer called YaraMila Power which is a type of NPK fertilizer,kuna mbolea inayoihwa yaramila Power ambayo ni aina ya mbolea ya NpkNpk
It is specially formulated to provide the nutritional needs of young maize plants from seed to about eight weeks,itengevya kwa ajili ya marutubishi ga matsere matsanga na ga wiki nane
The advantage of YaraMila Power especially for farmers on the verge of giving up is that it only needs to be applied once,Udzo wa yaraMila Power kwa ukurima wario karibu ku kata tamaa inahenzekana kuhumirwa mara mwenga tu
With YaraMila Power you may not need to topdress,ukihumira Yamaramila power si lazima kunyunyiza mbolea ya dzulu
Lets assume a farmer was able to buy this good variety of seeds,hinde hufikirie kala mkurima anaweza kugula mbeyu mbidzo
but doesnt have the money to buy YaraMila Power or other fertilizers we are talking about,na kana pesa ya kugula Yaramila power na mbolea zinnjine
What alternatives can this farmer use to achieve similar results,ni mbinu hizo mkurima anaweza kuhumira ili apate matokeo madzoni
As I said earlier at Faith Agro Inputs we are finding ways to simplify and break down the science into simple terms that farmers can understand,nirivyo gomba awali kala Faith Agro input hunatafuta mbinu mbidzo kurahisisha sayansi ili akurima waelewe kwa urahisi
Initially we used DAP NPK and ureathree different fertilizers,ho mwanzo huhumira mbolea za Dap Npk na Urea
Today when you go to the market remember each acre needs one bag of fertilizer which is 50 kilograms on average,Rero ukiuchenda sokoni kumbuka kila eka inahenzekana bagi memwenga ya mbolea bayo ni kilo 50
Currently a bag of fertilizer costs 200000 UGX,kwa sasa bangi mwenga inagharimu 200000UGX
This means for an acre a farmer will incur almost 600000 UGX on fertilizers alone,Inamaanisha kala ekari mwenga indagarimu 600000UGk kwa mbolea hacheye
We are now reducing that cost to not less than half by saying you only need 200000 UGX,hudzahunguza gharama kwa nusu ambayo indakugarimu 200000UGX
This amount will take your maize through to harvesting,ii indatosha mpaka uvune
Now how do we go about it,hundafikiradze hano
When planting apply one bottle cap eg from a mineral water bottle Rwenzori bottle or plastic soda bottle of fertilizer per hole,ukinyala ika kifiniko kimwenga cha chupa ya madzi au ya soda
You dig the hole first,Tsimba wina kwanza
You pour the fertilizer into the hole,ika mbolea kila wina
You can dig the hole a day or even a week before planting,unaeza tsimba wina siku au ta wiki kabla ya kunyala
Allow the hole to ferment and acclimatize with the surrounding conditions before planting,wezesha ro wina ku fundika ili izoere mazingira kabla ya kunyala
When you are planting get two peopleone with the fertilizer and another with the seeds,wakati wa kunyala pata atu airi mwenga wa mbolea na wahiri wa mbeyu
The person with the fertilizer is responsible for pouring fertilizer into each hole,mtu wa mbolea anahusika kwa kunyala kwenye wina
The person with the seeds will check where fertilizer has been placed cover it with a little soil put one seed in the hole and cover it again,mtu wa mbeyu anahusika kulola henye mbolea na kuika mbeyu kwenye mtsanga na kufunika
