Matthew 24 (BOU)

1Yesu akalawa he Nyumba ya Muungu, wahina wakwe wakamtimia na kumwonyesha mazengo ya Nyumba ya Muungu.As Jesus left the temple and was walking away, His disciples came up to Him to point out its buildings.

2Yesu akawamba, “Ni sawa, mwadaha kuyakauwa aya yose! Kwei nawamba, khahana hata iwe dimwe dendado disigae uwanga ya iwe tuhu, kia iwe dendadibomolwe.”“Do you see all these things?” He replied. “Truly I tell you, not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.”

3Yesu ekuwaho kekaa he muima wa Mizaituni, wahina wakwe wakamtimia Yesu ili wawe ikedu, wakamuuza, “Tambie, mbui izi zendazilawiiye ini, na ni ntangio ihi ya kweza kwako na ntangio ya kisikiizi cha inusi ni mbwai.”While Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately. “Tell us,” they said, “when will these things happen, and what will be the sign of Your coming and of the end of the age?”

4Yesu akawatambaisa, “Kuwani meso mntu asekuwatiiya.Jesus answered, “See to it that no one deceives you.

5Kwaviya wangi wendaweze na wendawatumiye zina dangu na kugombeka, ‘Miye nee Klistu, nao wenda wawatiiye wangi.’ ”For many will come in My name, claiming, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many.

6Mwenda mtegeeze mbui za khondo na ufukufuku wa khondo kauweni mwesekuogoha, kwaviya aya yakundigwa yalawiiye, iya kia kisikiizi chenye khakizati.You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. These things must happen, but the end is still to come.

7Wantu wa si mwenga wenda watoane khondo na wantu wa si ntuhu, wantu wa useuta umwe wenda watoane khondo na wantu wa useuta mtuhu. Kwendakuwe na saa na mizingizo mwe hantu mbaimbai mwe inusi.Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places.

8Yose ayo ni inga usungu wa bosi wa kwefungua mwana.All these are the beginning of birth pains.

9“Naho mwenda muemewe na wantu na kuwasuumiza na kukomwa. Wantu wa Si zose wenda wawakime kwaajii kunizumiia miye.Then they will deliver you over to be persecuted and killed, and you will be hated by all nations because of My name.

10Naho wangi wenda wabade kuzumiia kwao na wendawahitukane na khawana wakundisane katu.At that time many will fall away and will betray and hate one another,

11Wendawalawiiye waoni wangi wa uhokho, nao wenda wawatiiye wantu wangi.and many false prophets will arise and deceive many.

12Naho ukundiso wa wantu wangi wenda uhungue, kwaajii mavigaviga yenda yawe yamema.Because of the multiplication of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold.

13Na yoyose endaeagooke mwe untintimavu adi kisikiizi, uyo nee endaeaoholwe.But the one who perseveres to the end will be saved.

14Mbui Yedi ya useuta wa Muungu inda ibiikiwe mwe inusi yose, ili wantu wose waimanye nee kisikiizi chendahocheze.And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

15“Ivyo mwendaho muone mbui ya kutisa na dietado ubanasi, digooka he Nyumba ya Muungu inga ekugombekavyo muoni Danieli, ivyo kia asomaye na amanye mbui iyo.”So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the abomination of desolation,’ spoken of by the prophet Daniel (let the reader understand),

16Aho, wada wekaao Uyahudi waguukie he miima.then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

17Yoyose mwe uwanga ya taa da nyumba yakwe asekuseeya kudoa chochose kulawa mwe nyumba yakwe.Let no one on the housetop come down to retrieve anything from his house.

18Ekuwae tanga asekuuya kaya kudoa gwanda dakwe.And let no one in the field return for his cloak.

19Mmbwii yao wakina mmaa wekwenuao maifu na waokhesao misi iyo!How miserable those days will be for pregnant and nursing mothers!

20Ombezani Muungu kuguuka kwenu kusekuwa kisingi cha khusi hambu Msi wa Kuhumuiza.Pray that your flight will not occur in the winter or on the Sabbath.

21Kwaviya kisingi icho chendakiwe na suuba khuu ambayo khaizati kulawiia kuvokea aho bosi wa inusi adi ivyeo, wala khakina kilawiiye vituhu.For at that time there will be great tribulation, unseen from the beginning of the world until now, and never to be seen again.

22Iya Muungu kahunguza misi izo, inga khekugosoa ivyo khahana mntu ambae nee kaoholwa, na Muungu kazihunguza kwaajii ya wantu wakwe ekuwasaguwao.If those days had not been cut short, nobody would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, those days will be cut short.

23“Kisingi icho mntu yoyose akawamba, ‘Klistu, yuhanu!’ Hambu ‘Yuhada,’ msekuzumiiya.”At that time, if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There He is!’ do not believe it.

24Kwaviya wendawalawiiye wantu wetangao Klistu akini khio, naho wendawalawiiye waoni wa uhokho. Wendawagosoe ntangio na vihii vikuu vya kudaha kuwaza, vikadahika hata wekusagulwao ni Muungu.For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive even the elect, if that were possible.

25Kauwani! Khibindiiza kuwahaza kae kabla mbui izo khazizati kulawiia.See, I have told you in advance.

26“Kwaiyo, mntu yoyose akawamba, ‘Klistu yuuko he nyika, msekuita.’ Hambu wakagombeka, ‘Klistu yuuko gati, msekuzumiiya.’So if they tell you, ‘There He is, in the wilderness,’ do not go out, or, ‘Here He is, in the inner rooms,’ do not believe it.

27Kwaviya inga umbauwa umuikavyo kulawa awiyo da zua adi engiiyo da zua, nee ivyo vyendavyoviwe kweza kwakwe Mwana wa Mntu.For just as the lightning comes from the east and flashes as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.

28“Hada weiho mzoga, neaho wakintanaho tai.Wherever there is a carcass, there the vultures will gather.

29“Maa misi iyo za suuba zendaho zemboke, Muungu endaadihitue zuwa kuwa kiza na mweenge nayo khaina ilavye mng'ao na ntoondo zendazigwe kulawa uwanga, viyaviya endaazisingise nguvu za uwanga.Immediately after the tribulation of those days: ‘The sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.’

30Aho wenda uoneke ntangio ya Mwana wa Mntu uwanga kwa Muungu na wantu wose mwe inusi wenda watoe bwaimbo, wenda wamwone Mwana wa Mntu akeza uwanga ya maangwi ya uwanga kwa Muungu kwa udaho na ukuu mwingi.At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and all the tribes of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

31Nae endaawaagiiye wandima wa uwanga kwa Muungu uku watoa gunda divumado muno, nao wendawawaike hamwe wekusagulwao ni Muungu kulawa phande zose nne za inusi, kulawa kisikizi iki cha inusi adi kisikizi kituhu cha inusu.And He will send out His angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather His elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.

32“Mwehinye kulawa kwa mti wa mkuyu, muonaho matambi yakwe yamema mani, mwamanya kisingi cha fua kibua.Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its branches become tender and sprout leaves, you know that summer is near.

33Ivyoivyo, mwonaho mbui izo zikagosoka mmanye kuwa Seuta yuhehi muno.So also, when you see all these things, you will know that He is near, right at the door.

34Nawamba kwei, wantu wa kivyazi iki khauna wemboke kabla ya mbui izo khazizati kulawiiya.Truly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all these things have happened.

35Uwanga kwa Muungu na inusi zendazemboke, iya mbui zangu khazina zemboke katu.Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away.

36“Kwa mbui ya msi uda na saa ida khahana amanyae, ata wandima wa uwanga kwa Muungu wala Mwana, iya Tate ikedu nee amanyae msi uwo.No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

37Inga yekuwavyo kisingi cha Nuhu, nee vyendavyoviwe kweza kwakwe Mwana wa Mntu.As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be at the coming of the Son of Man.

38Kwaviya kisingi icho, kabla ya mazi mangi kuigubika inusi, wantu neewawa wakada na kudomea, wakategua na kutegulwa, hadi Nuhu ekwengiaho mwe ida Safina.For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark.

39Khawokumanya kuna mbwai hadi yada mazi mangi yekulawiiyaho, kuwakumba wose. Nee vendavyoviwe kisingi Mwana wa Mntu endahoeze.And they were oblivious until the flood came and swept them all away. So will it be at the coming of the Son of Man.

40Kisingi icho wantu waidi wendawawe tanga yumwe endaadoigwe na mtuhu endaabadwe.Two men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left.

41Wavyee waidi wendawawe wakabunduga khande, yumwe endaadoigwe na mtuhu endaabadwe.Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left.

42Ekauweni, kwaviya khammanya msi endahoeze Zumbe yenu.Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day on which your Lord will come.

43Iya mmanye mbui inu, inga mwenye nyumba ati nee kamanya msi mbavi endahoabue, nee akacheeza, wala khekuwa aibadie nyumba yakwe itulwe.But understand this: If the homeowner had known in which watch of the night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into.

44Viyaviya nanywi mwekae meso, kwaviya Mwana wa Mntu endaeze saa mwesayokuikauwiya.For this reason, you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour you do not expect.

45“Nindai mndima mkwei na mwenye akii, ambae zumbe yakwe endaamwiike agookee weziwe na awekhe khande kwa kisingi chakwe?Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of his household, to give the others their food at the proper time?

46Yendaiwe vyedi mndima uyo ambae zumbe yakwe endahoeze endaambwiiye agosoa ivyo.Blessed is that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns.

47Nawamba kwei, endaamwiike mndima uyo agookee vintu vyakwe vyose.Truly I tell you, he will put him in charge of all his possessions.

48Inga mndima ni mfyaimi akegombekea mwe moyo, ‘Zumbe yangu endaacheewe kuuya,’But suppose that servant is wicked and says in his heart, ‘My master will be away a long time.’

49nae akavoka kuwatoa wandima weziwe, na kuvoka kuda na kudomea hamwe na wakozi,And he begins to beat his fellow servants and to eat and drink with drunkards.

50zumbe yakwe mndima uyo endaeze msi ambao mndima khamkauwiiya na saa ida ambayo khaimanya.The master of that servant will come on a day he does not expect and at an hour he does not anticipate.

51Endaamsuumize vifyaimi na kumwiika hamwe na wahokho. Uko kwendakuwe na ndio na kuuma meno kwa usungu.Then he will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
