1. 1IYXYiisu atsuyi kwaa koongi yoosi, na kwaa miyii mia nde,BSBBSB: Then Jesus spoke to the crowds and to His disciples:
2. 2IYXNde aleeli: «Bayiisi ba mikele na Bafarisi bali na mufunu wa ubiindili Mikele mia Mooso.BSBBSB: “The scribes and Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat.
3. 3IYXNi mu buu, beni diafwaana utumumu bo na ukuusu moosi ma bo buleele beni. Ka beni a diduku pe weti buli biyiluu bia bo, mundaa ti bo a bali mu usalila pe ma bo bali mu uyiisi.BSBBSB: So practice and observe everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach.
4. 4IYXBo bali mu ukutu mifunu mialeme, mili na pasi mu ubiti. Bo bali mu unaa mio nha yulu a bisambuu bia baata. Ka bo makulu bali mu ubisi ubumunu mio so mu muleembi, mu ubaasila bo mu unaangila mio.BSBBSB: They tie up heavy, burdensome loads and lay them on men’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them.
5. 5IYXBo bali mu usa biyiluu bia bo bioosi, mu nzala ya umonuu nha kulu a baata. Ni mu buu, mu taanga dia likuundu, bo bakutu bipokolo nha mambuunzi, na mu mioo. Mandeengi ma biyungu bia bo mayiluu usaalila ku tsini.BSBBSB: All their deeds are done for men to see. They broaden their phylacteries and lengthen their tassels.
6. 6IYXBo batoono mambuu ma likiinzi mu mikuungi mia ndiilili, na mambata matsiomi mu manzo ma makutunu ma Bayuudayo.BSBBSB: They love the places of honor at banquets, the chief seats in the synagogues,
7. 7IYXBo batoono uyaka mabwe ma likiinzi mu kulu a mbari, na batoono ti baata bata bo “Muyiisi.”BSBBSB: the greetings in the marketplaces, and the title of ‘Rabbi’ by which they are addressed.
8. 8IYXKa beni, a disiingi pe ti bata beni “Muyiisi.” Mundaa ti beni boosi dili baana banguu na beni dili na muyiisi ndila mosi.BSBBSB: But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi,’ for you have one Teacher, and you are all brothers.
9. 9IYXA dita pe muutu so mosi nha tsini a toto “Taayi” a beni. Mundaa beni dili na Taayi ndila mosi, ni Taayi wuli ku yulu.BSBBSB: And do not call anyone on earth your father, for you have one Father, who is in heaven.
10. 10IYXA disiingi pe ka ti bata beni “Pfumu”, mundaa ti beni dili na pfumu ndila mosi, ni Mesiya.BSBBSB: Nor are you to be called instructors, for you have one Instructor, the Christ.
11. 11IYXWavulu bunene mu beni, afwaana uba musiali a beni.BSBBSB: The greatest among you shall be your servant.
12. 12IYXWu unaanguu sa bakululu, ka wu ukuluu sa banaangila.»BSBBSB: For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.
13. 13IYX«Ngebe kwaa beni, bayiisi ba mikele na Bafarisi, bangaa peluu! Beni dili mu udibuu munywa a Ipfumu kia mayula kwaa baata. Beni bameme a dili mu ukoto muu pe, na a dili mu uha pe kuulu kwaa babatoono ukoto mu kio.» [BSBBSB: Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You shut the kingdom of heaven in men’s faces. You yourselves do not enter, nor will you let in those who wish to enter.
14. 14IYX«Ngebe kwaa beni, bayiisi ba mikele na Bafarisi, bangaa peluu! Beni dili mu upatila bioosi bia baa bakwiili, na beni dili mu usa makuundu mamala paa baata bamono beni. Ni mu buu sa badifuundusu mu iteesi kiavulu mifuri.»]BSBBSB: Not in the BSB
    Not in the earliest manuscripts
15. 15IYX«Ngebe kwaa beni, bayiisi ba mikele na Bafarisi, bangaa peluu! Beni dili mu udieenge mu mambuu moosi nha tsini a toto, na nha yulu a mubu. Beni dili mu uyiluu buu, mu ubaa ndila muutu mosi wu ukiingili mayele. So beni dibayi nde, beni ukitisi nde mwaana a mbuungulu mu iteesi kialutu kia beni mbala dioolo.»BSBBSB: Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You traverse land and sea to win a single convert, and when he becomes one, you make him twice as much a son of hell as you are.
16. 16IYX«Ngebe kwaa beni, babiti bali bingima-ngimi! Beni dili mu uleele: “So muutu labi mukisi mu kuumbu a Nzo a Nziaambi, mukisi wuu a li na ndutu pe. Ka so nde labi mukisi mu woolo la mu Nzo a Nziaambi, muutu wuu afwaana ukiinzi mukisi wuu.”BSBBSB: Woe to you, blind guides! You say, ‘If anyone swears by the temple, it means nothing; but if anyone swears by the gold of the temple, he is bound by his oath.’
17. 17IYXBeni biwulu na bingima-ngimi! Ima kiavulu ndutu: woolo, oo ti Nzo a Nziaambi yili mu uha bungiri kwaa woolo?BSBBSB: You blind fools! Which is greater: the gold, or the temple that makes it sacred?
18. 18IYXBeni dili mu uleele ka: “So muutu labi mukisi mu diki la tsuyili a bungori, mukisi wuu a li na ndutu pe. Ka so nde labi mukisi mu bungori babali nha yulu a diki, muutu wuu afwaana ukiinzi mukisi wuu.”BSBBSB: And you say, ‘If anyone swears by the altar, it means nothing; but if anyone swears by the gift on it, he is bound by his oath.’
19. 19IYXBingima-ngimi! Ima kiavulu ndutu: bungori, oo ti diki lili mu uha bungiri kwaa bungori?BSBBSB: You blind men! Which is greater: the gift, or the altar that makes it sacred?
20. 20IYXNi mu buu wu ulaba mukisi mu diki, nde labi mukisi mu diki na mu bioosi bili nha yulu a lo.BSBBSB: So then, he who swears by the altar swears by it and by everything on it.
21. 21IYXWu ulaba mukisi mu Nzo a Nziaambi, nde labi mukisi mu Nzo a Nziaambi na mu Nziaambi wadiaala mu yo.BSBBSB: And he who swears by the temple swears by it and by the One who dwells in it.
22. 22IYXWu ulaba mukisi mu yulu, nde labi mukisi mu mbata a Ipfumu kia Nziaambi, na mu Nziaambi wadiaala nha yulu a kio.»BSBBSB: And he who swears by heaven swears by God’s throne and by the One who sits on it.
23. 23IYX«Ngebe kwaa beni bayiisi ba mikele na Bafarisi, bangaa peluu! Beni dili mu uha kwaa Nziaambi ikuku kia kuumi-kuumi mu makaya moosi mamuha biloo tsulu yimbwe. Ka beni umeengele nziisili yavulu ndutu mu mikele mia Nziaambi, weti libweeye, mutimi wa ngebe na unambita mu Nziaambi. Beni diafwaana usalila nziisili yii, kwahele a umeengele mikele mikimi.BSBBSB: Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You pay tithes of mint, dill, and cumin. But you have disregarded the weightier matters of the law: justice, mercy, and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former.
24. 24IYXBabiti babakwa misi! Beni uleke mala ma beni mu umaasa imbu, ka beni umini samo!»BSBBSB: You blind guides! You strain out a gnat but swallow a camel.
25. 25IYX«Ngebe kwaa beni, Bayiisi ba mikele na Bafarisi, bangaa peluu! Beni dili mu uswaa mbasa na ikoombo ku mbari. Ka ku kati, bio bialuulu mu bii bi beni diayibi na mu manzala ma beni mamabi.BSBBSB: Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence.
26. 26IYXMufarisi wakwa misi! Kwatsieemese ku kati a mbasa, tumake ku mbari ka mbasa sa yitsieeme.»BSBBSB: Blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of the cup and dish, so that the outside may become clean as well.
27. 27IYX«Ngebe kwaa beni, Bayiisi ba mikele na Bafarisi, bangaa peluu! Beni diafwaanina na mangili mabakili liheembe, mali mu umonuu mamabwe ku mbari. Ka ku kati maluulu mu miyisi mia babakwa, na bioosi biabolo bia mupili na mupili.BSBBSB: Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of dead men’s bones and every kind of impurity.
28. 28IYXBumosi ka kwaa beni, ku mbari beni dili mu umweese kwaa baata boosi ti beni diakangama mu Nziaambi, ka ku kati beni dialuulu mu peluu na mu bubi.»BSBBSB: In the same way, on the outside you appear to be righteous, but on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness.
29. 29IYX«Ngebe kwaa beni, bayiisi ba mikele na Bafarisi, bangaa peluu! Beni dili mu utuungu mibili mangili mamabwe, beni dili mu uyolo mangili ma baata ba libweeye.BSBBSB: Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You build tombs for the prophets and decorate the monuments of the righteous.
30. 30IYXBeni dili mu uleele: “So bisi diali mu taanga dia bakaa ba bisi, bisi a diakeni pe uba pfuundu mosi na bo mu udusu mibili mia Nziaambi.”BSBBSB: And you say, ‘If we had lived in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partners with them in shedding the blood of the prophets.’
31. 31IYXMu yii, beni dili mu uyaaba mu ibeni bameme ti beni dili baana ba baata babadusi mibili.BSBBSB: So you testify against yourselves that you are the sons of those who murdered the prophets.
32. 32IYXAka, dihama, dimana mi bataayi ba beni babaandii!»BSBBSB: Fill up, then, the measure of the sin of your fathers.
33. 33IYX«Beni bataari, ifuumbu kia bapili! Buni beni dituu ubata pfuundisi ya ku mbuungulu?BSBBSB: You snakes! You brood of vipers! How will you escape the sentence of hell?
34. 34IYXNi mu buu, diyuu: me sa tsinduu beni mibili, bangaa buyeri, na bayiisi ba mikele. Beni sa didusu babamosi, sa dikomo bana nha kuruwa. Bakimi beni sa diabatete bikoti mu manzo ma makutunu ma Bayuudayo, na beni sa diyoobingisi bo mu pasi ngaanda.BSBBSB: Because of this, I am sending you prophets and wise men and teachers. Some of them you will kill and crucify, and others you will flog in your synagogues and persecute from town to town.
35. 35IYXNi mu buu, beni sa diyaka tsieembili mundaa makili ma baata babahele na toono, matsiaamii nha tsi. Beni diabaandii udusu baata baa, umatuu mu taanga dia Aabeli muutu wa libweeye, natee mu nguu a ngaanga wa kuumbu Zakaria. Zakaria ali mwaana a Barakia, wu beni diadusi nha kati a mbuu ya ngira na diki la tsuyili a bungori.BSBBSB: And so upon you will come all the righteous blood shed on earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah son of Berechiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar.
36. 36IYXMu ngwanya, me nadileeli: musieende wa ndusili a baata baa boosi sa abwa nha yulu a baata ba isieende kia lolo ki.»BSBBSB: Truly I tell you, all these things will come upon this generation.
37. 37IYX«Baata ba Yeruselemi, baata ba Yeruselemi! Beni ba dili mu udusu mibili, ba dili mu udusu mu mamanya baa ba Nziaambi ali mu utsinduu kwaa beni! Mbala kwe me nali na nzala a ukoso beni kutso me. Me nali na nzala ya ukoso bo kutso me, weti bu nguu a tsusu ali mu ukoso baana ba nde kutso mapapi ma nde. Ka beni a diatooni buu pe.BSBBSB: O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who kills the prophets and stones those sent to her, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were unwilling!
38. 38IYXMono, nzo a beni yoosi sa babwoongolo.BSBBSB: Look, your house is left to you desolate.
39. 39IYXKa me nileele kwaa beni: Umatuu mu taanga di, beni a dibwamono me pe, natee bu beni dileele: “Nyaala Nziaambi asieme wuli mu uyira mu kuumbu a Pfumu!”»BSBBSB: For I tell you that you will not see Me again until you say, ‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord.’”
