1. 1IYXMu taanga dii, miyii miaswesii kwaa Yiisu, na miamufuuli: «Na avulu ndutu mu Ipfumu kia mayula?»BSBBSB: At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who then is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”
2. 2IYXYiisu ateeri imwamwaana mbili, wamusuusi nha kati a bo,BSBBSB: Jesus invited a little child to stand among them.
3. 3IYXna aleeli: «Mu ngwanya me nadileeli, so beni a disobi ndiaatili a beni pe na uba weti bibabaana, beni a dituu uba baata ba Ipfumu kia mayula pe.BSBBSB: “Truly I tell you,” He said, “unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
4. 4IYXWavulu ndutu mu Ipfumu kia mayula, ni wuu wu ukuluu na uba weti imwamwaana ki.BSBBSB: Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
5. 5IYXNa pasi muutu wu uyaka imwamwaana weti kiinaki, mundaa ti muutu wuu atoono me, nde yaki me makulu.»BSBBSB: And whoever welcomes a little child like this in My name welcomes Me.
6. 6IYX«Pasi nde wu ubwiisi mu masumu, mosi mu bibabaana bi bili mu usa imiini mu me, yavulu bubwe kwaa nde bamukutulu limanya li linene mu kiingi, na bamudumunu ku musundu a mubu.BSBBSB: But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.
7. 7IYXNgebe kwaa baata ba tsi! Mundaa ti mandaa ma mukubusu baata mabaka mali ma laa. Mandaa ma pili yi a mubaahele pe, ka ngebe kwaa muutu wuli mu ukubu ti mandaa maa mayilimi!BSBBSB: Woe to the world for the causes of sin. These stumbling blocks must come, but woe to the man through whom they come!
8. 8IYXSo ni mundaa koo kia we, so a buu pe, mundaa kuulu kia we, we ubwa mu masumu, kese bio na bumu bio la na we. Ka yavulu bubwe kwaa we mu ukoto mu moonyi wa ngwanya na ndila koo imosi, so a buu pe, kuulu imosi. Uyiluu buu yavulu bubwe, mu uhele uba wu budumunu ku mbaa ya mbuuungulu, na mioo mio mia mioolo, so a buu pe, na miili mio mia mioolo.BSBBSB: If your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life crippled or lame than to have two hands and two feet and be thrown into the eternal fire.
9. 9IYXNa so ni mundaa lisi la we, we ubwa mu masumu, sootolo lo, na dumunu lo la na we. Mundaa, yavulu bubwe kwaa we mu ukoto mu moonyi wa ngwanya na ndila lisi limosi, ka a mu uba na misi mio mia mioolo pe, na uba wu budumunu ku mbaa ya mbuungulu.»BSBBSB: And if your eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell.
10. 10IYX«Disa mayele! A dimeengele pe so mosi mu bibabaana bi. Ka ngwanya me nadileeli, batumu ba bo bali mu taanga dioosi nha kulu a kiinzi kia Taayi a me wuli mu mayula. [BSBBSB: See that you do not look down on any of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of My Father in heaven.
11. 11IYXKa Mwaana a muutu a yiri mu uvuusu ba bali badiimbili.»]BSBBSB: Not in the BSB
    Not in the earliest manuscripts
12. 12IYX«Ima beni dili mu utsimi? Mbiiti muutu li na kama la mameme, ninha limosi mu mo lidiimbili, nde a usiisi pe maku wa na wa mamamosi ku yulu a mulaanda mu uyene ku usaa ladiimbili?BSBBSB: What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them goes astray, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go out to search for the one that is lost?
13. 13IYXEe-e, me nadileeli, so nde solili lo, nde sa amono kinyi yavululu mu limeme lii, kwavulu kinyi ya mu maku wa na wa ma mameme mahele udiimbili.BSBBSB: And if he finds it, truly I tell you, he rejoices more over that one sheep than over the ninety-nine that did not go astray.
14. 14IYXNi buu ka, Taayi a beni wuli mu mayula a atoono pe ti so mosi mu bibabaana bia nde adiimbili.»BSBBSB: In the same way, your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should perish.
15. 15IYX«So mwaana nguu a we yilii we mimibi, yamono nde mu taanga di beni diba ndila beni boolo na mweese nde bubi ba nde. So nde yuyi we, nhaa we maavuusu nde.BSBBSB: If your brother sins against you, go and confront him privately. If he listens to you, you have won your brother over.
16. 16IYXKa so nde bisi uyuu we, holo muutu mosi so a buu pe boolo baba itwaari na we, paa weti bu li mu uleele Mabasonuu: “Pasi ndaa bafwaana uyiluu yo nha kulu a bambaangi boolo so batata.”BSBBSB: But if he will not listen, take one or two others along, so that ‘every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.’
17. 17IYXKa so nde bisi uyuu bo, leele yo kwaa libuundu, na so nde bisi uyuu libuundu, holo nde weti mungooyi, so a buu pe mutoli a limaanda.»BSBBSB: If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, regard him as you would a pagan or a tax collector.
18. 18IYX«Mu ngwanya me nadileeli: pasi ma dikutu beni nha tsi, sa bakutu mo mu mayula. Na pasi ma dinyangila beni nha tsi sa banyangila mo mu mayula.»BSBBSB: Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.
19. 19IYX«Me nadileeli ka ti, so baata boolo nha kati a beni bayuhisini nha tsi, mu uloombo pasi kio mu likuundu, Taayi a me wuli mu mayula sawabaha bo kio, weti bu baloombi.BSBBSB: Again, I tell you truly that if two of you on the earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by My Father in heaven.
20. 20IYXMundaa nha mbuu yi baata boolo so batata bakukunu mu kuumbu a me, me ndi nha kati a bo.»BSBBSB: For where two or three gather together in My name, there am I with them.”
21. 21IYXNinha Peetero aswesii kwaa Yiisu na wamufuuli: «Pfumu, mbala kwe me nafwaana usa mwaana nguu a me kolokolo mbiiti nde yilii me bubi? Natee mbala tsaamba?»BSBBSB: Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother who sins against me? Up to seven times?”
22. 22IYXYiisu avutili kwaa nde: «Ngori, me a nileele pe we ti natee mbala tsaamba, ka natee mbala maku tsaamba mbala tsaamba.BSBBSB: Jesus answered, “I tell you, not just seven times, but seventy-seven times!
23. 23IYXNi mu buu, mono ifwaani kia Ipfumu kia mayula: Mutini mosi aholi kesili ti bangaamba ba nde bayala nde mutata, mundaa mayaama ma bo bakoti kwaa nde.BSBBSB: Because of this, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants.
24. 24IYXMu taanga di babaandii uyala nde mitata, bamubeyi ngaamba mosi wali na yaama la nde, la mafutu mafuundu kuumi ma mikuti mia mboongo.BSBBSB: As he began the settlements, a debtor owing ten thousand talents was brought to him.
25. 25IYXMuutu wuu a ali na mbayili pe mu utuu uvutulu mboongo dii. Ni mu buu pfumu a nde atumi ti bayaluu nde weti mutee na bayaluu ka mukari a nde, baana ba nde na bioosi bi ali na bio, paa babele yaama.BSBBSB: Since the man was unable to pay, the master ordered that he be sold to pay his debt, along with his wife and children and everything he owned.
26. 26IYXNgaamba atsukini nha kulu a pfumu a nde na wamuleeli: “Kama mutimi mu me, na me sa fuutu we yaama loosi.”BSBBSB: Then the servant fell on his knees before him. ‘Have patience with me,’ he begged, ‘and I will pay back everything.’
27. 27IYXPfumu wamukwiilili ngebe: nde anyaali yaama la nde na wamunyaali ayene.»BSBBSB: His master had compassion on him, forgave his debt, and released him.
28. 28IYX«Ngaamba wuu bu apali abwaani mosi mu bambaayi ba nde ba isala, wali na yaama la nde la mikuti kama mia boongo. Nde ayaki na apinyi mbaayi wuu nha kiingi na aleeli: “Bele yaama la me!”BSBBSB: But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii. He grabbed him and began to choke him, saying, ‘Pay back what you owe me!’
29. 29IYXMbaayi ngaamba wuu abwiiri nha miili mia nde na wamupeli mbii bu: “Kama mutimi mu me, na me sa bele yaama la we!”BSBBSB: So his fellow servant fell down and begged him, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you back.’
30. 30IYXKa wu mumosi abisi, nha yulu a nhaa nde wamuheeri paa bamudumunu mu perese natee bu nde ubele yaama la nde.BSBBSB: But he refused. Instead, he went and had the man thrown into prison until he could pay his debt.
31. 31IYXBambaayi basiali, bu bamoni mamayilimi, bo banyoongi kwalaa na bayileele mioosi kwaa pfumu a bo.BSBBSB: When his fellow servants saw what had happened, they were greatly distressed, and they went and recounted all of this to their master.
32. 32IYXNi mu buu pfumu atiiri ngaamba wuu mbili na wamuleeli: “We ngaamba wuli na mutimi wu mubi! Me nanyaala yaama la we mundaa we a apele me mu uyiluu buu.BSBBSB: Then the master summoned him and said, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave all your debt because you begged me.
33. 33IYXWe aba afwaana ka ukwiili mbaayi a we wa isala ngebe, weti bu me na kwiilili we ngebe!”BSBBSB: Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant, just as I had on you?’
34. 34IYXPfumu a nde abayi kesi ya mifuri na wamutsindii ku perese la bisala bia mifuri natee bu nde ubele yaama la nde loosi.»BSBBSB: In anger his master turned him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should repay all that he owed.
35. 35IYXTumake Yiisu abwileele: «Ni buu ka Taayi a me wuli ku yula akaayiluu mu beni, mbiiti muutu-muutu mu beni utuu pe usa mwaana a nguu a nde kolokolo mu mutimi a nde woosi.»BSBBSB: That is how My heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother from your heart.”
