1. 1LAGSikʉ ɨmwɨ, Yéesu avavariyʉrɨráa Masáare Maaja vaantʉ waámii wa Kaaya Njija ya Ijʉva. Vakʉ́ʉ́lʉ va veeneɨsɨ va Ijʉva, vakiindya va Miiro na vawosi vakamʉʉjɨra.BSBBSB: One day as Jesus was teaching the people in the temple courts and proclaiming the gospel, the chief priests and scribes, together with the elders, came up to Him.
2. 2LAGAho, vakamuurya voosea, “Tʉwyɨɨre nɨ kwa wiimiriri wa ani wootʉmama masáare aya? Nɨ ani akʉheera wiimiriri ʉhʉ?”BSBBSB: “Tell us,” they said, “by what authority are You doing these things, and who gave You this authority?”
3. 3LAGNe akavasea, “Naanɨ kuvuurya ndɨrɨ, mʉʉngwyɨɨre,BSBBSB: “I will also ask you a question,” Jesus replied. “Tell Me:
4. 4LAGeri, ʉbatíiso wa Yooháani nɨ kurumwii wafuma, bakʉ kwa vaantʉ?”BSBBSB: John’s baptism—was it from heaven, or from men?”
5. 5LAGAho, vakalʉʉsɨkanʼya voovo kwa voovo, “Koonɨ taséire ‘Wafuma kwa Mʉlʉʉngʉ,’ sea arɨ, ‘Haaha amwɨ sɨ mwamuruma?’BSBBSB: They deliberated among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will ask, ‘Why did you not believe him?’
6. 6LAGMaa kaa, koonɨ taséire, ‘Wafuma kwa vaantʉ,’ vaantʉ voosi kʉtʉvaa varɨ na mawye tukwye sa vaantʉ voosi vamuruma Yooháani nɨ mʉláali na mʉtwe wa Mʉlʉʉngʉ.”BSBBSB: But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are convinced that John was a prophet.”
7. 7LAGAho, maa re vakamʉsea, “Sɨ tamányire kʉʉntʉ wiimiriri waachwe ˆwafuma tʉkʉ.”BSBBSB: So they answered that they did not know where it was from.
8. 8LAGYéesu ne akavasea, “Naanɨ sɨ ndɨrɨ vawyɨɨra nɨ kwa wiimiriri ʉrɨkwɨ nootʉmama aya tʉkʉ.”BSBBSB: And Jesus replied, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
9. 9LAGAho, maa Yéesu akaanda kʉvavaɨra vaantʉ lusímo ʉlʉ, “Mʉʉntʉ ʉmwɨ ajáa ahaanda mɨsabíibu iwundii kwaachwe. Ɨro iwʉnda akarɨkojya kwa varimi. Maa yeeye akakera njɨra na ɨsɨ ya kʉlɨ. Ʉko akɨɨta kiikala kwa sikʉ ˆjiri foo.BSBBSB: Then He proceeded to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard, rented it out to some tenants, and went away for a long time.
10. 10LAGMpɨɨndɨ jo chwa ˆjikafike, akamʉtʉma mʉtʉmami waachwe kwa vara vaantʉ sa vamʉheere haantʉ haachwe ha sabíibu ˆvachwíire. Maa kaa, vara varimi ˆajáa avakojya vakamʉvaa ʉra mʉtʉmami, maa vakamukibirya na mɨkono mɨtʉhʉ.BSBBSB: At harvest time, he sent a servant to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the tenants beat the servant and sent him away empty-handed.
11. 11LAGAkamʉtʉma mʉtʉmami wɨɨngɨ, ʉhʉ ne vakamʉvaa, vakamʉbweeyyirya masáare ya soni, maa vakamukibirya na mɨkono mɨtʉhʉ.BSBBSB: So he sent another servant, but they beat him and treated him shamefully, sending him away empty-handed.
12. 12LAGKei akamʉtʉma wa katatʉ, ʉhʉ ne vakamʉtamikya, maa vakamʉfweitɨra na weerwii ya iwʉnda.BSBBSB: Then he sent a third, but they wounded him and threw him out.
13. 13LAGMaa re mweeneiwʉnda ra mɨsabíibu akiiyurya, ‘Che ndɨrɨ bweeyya? Haaha kʉmʉtʉma niise mwaana waanɨ. Ʉhʉ namweenda maatʉkʉ! Ʉhʉ ifaanaa vamʉnyemye.’BSBBSB: ‘What shall I do?’ asked the owner of the vineyard. ‘I will send my beloved son. Perhaps they will respect him.’
14. 14LAGMaa kaa, vara ˆvakojiwa iwʉnda ˆvakamoone vii, maa vakiiwyɨɨra voovo kwa voovo voosea, ‘Ʉhʉ noo mʉpaari wa ɨrɨ iwʉnda. Tʉmʉʉlae haaha sa ʉpaari waachwe ʉve wiiswi.’BSBBSB: But when the tenants saw the son, they discussed it among themselves and said, ‘This is the heir. Let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’
15. 15LAGVakamʉfweitɨra na weerwii ya iwʉnda ra mɨsabíibu, maa vakamʉʉlaa.” Aho, Yéesu akavuurya, “Haaha mweeneiwʉnda che arɨ vabweeyya vaantʉ vara?BSBBSB: So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
16. 16LAGKʉʉja arɨ na kʉvʉʉlaa arɨ avo vaantʉ ˆavakojya iwʉnda na kʉvakojya arɨ vaantʉ vɨɨngɨ ɨrɨ iwʉnda ra mɨsabíibu.” Vaantʉ ˆvakateere ayo masáare, maa vakasea, “Aka tʉkʉ! Karɨ baa luu vifʉmɨre vii tʉkʉ!”BSBBSB: He will come and kill those tenants and give the vineyard to others.” And when the people heard this, they said, “May such a thing never happen!”
17. 17LAGYéesu akavalaanga, maa akavasea, “Masáare aya ˆYarɨ Mpeho nɨ che yalʉʉsa? ‘Iwye ˆrasiitwa nɨ vajeengi, ravɨ́ɨre iwye ikʉʉlʉ ra kichurii.’BSBBSB: But Jesus looked directly at them and said, “Then what is the meaning of that which is written: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone’?
18. 18LAGKɨra mʉʉntʉ ˆawíjaa mweeri ya iwye ɨrɨ, ngʼenyekangʼenyeka arɨ, na ʉra ˆrɨrɨ muwyɨɨra, chɨnɨka arɨ kamwɨ.”BSBBSB: Everyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom it falls will be crushed.”
19. 19LAGVakiindya va Miiro, na vakʉ́ʉ́lʉ va veeneɨsɨ va Ijʉva, vakasaakɨra njɨra yo mʉkwaata chaangʉ sa vajáa vatáangire lusímo ʉlo nɨ voovo lʉjáa lwavalúusire. Maa kaa, vakavoofa vaantʉ.BSBBSB: When the scribes and chief priests realized that Jesus had spoken this parable against them, they sought to arrest Him that very hour. But they were afraid of the people.
20. 20LAGAho, vakʉ́ʉ́lʉ va Vayahúudi vakava voomʉrɨɨra iyeo. Vakatʉma vaantʉ viibweeyye vawoloki sa vandoomʉsola. Vabweeyyáa jei sa vapate kɨɨntʉ cho mʉkwaatɨra, vamʉvɨɨke ɨsɨ ya ngururu na wiimiriri wa gávana.BSBBSB: So they watched Him closely and sent spies who pretended to be sincere. They were hoping to catch Him in His words in order to hand Him over to the rule and authority of the governor.
21. 21LAGAvo vuurikiriri vakamuurya, “Mukiindya, tamányire weewe ʉlʉ́ʉsaa na ʉváriyʉlaa ya kɨmáárɨ. Weewe sɨ woófaa ʉkʉ́ʉ́lʉ wa vaantʉ tʉkʉ, weewe wakíindyaa kɨmáárɨ ja ˆvyeene Mʉlʉʉngʉ asáakaa.BSBBSB: “Teacher,” they inquired, “we know that You speak and teach correctly. You show no partiality but teach the way of God in accordance with the truth.
22. 22LAGEri, ndairiri jaruma tʉndoorɨha kóodi kwa Kaisáari bakʉ tʉkʉ?”BSBBSB: Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?”
23. 23LAGMaa kaa, Yéesu akataanga ʉkwaata waavo, maa akavasea,BSBBSB: But Jesus saw through their duplicity and said to them,
24. 24LAG“Ndairi mpía ya dináari. Buuwo ɨhɨ na irina ɨrɨ nɨ vya ani?” Vakuuyirya voosea, “Nɨ vya Kaisáari.”BSBBSB: “Show Me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?” “Caesar’s,” they answered.
25. 25LAGAho, Yéesu akavasea, “Vya Kaisáari, mʉheeri Kaisáari. Na vya Mʉlʉʉngʉ, mʉheeri Mʉlʉʉngʉ.”BSBBSB: So Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.”
26. 26LAGVakasiindwa kʉmʉkwaata kwa yara ˆalʉʉsáa mbere ja vaantʉ. Vakahwaalala maatʉkʉ vii kwa vira ˆvyeene uuyiryáa, vakakirinya sawu.BSBBSB: And they were unable to trap Him in His words before the people. And amazed at His answer, they fell silent.
27. 27LAGMpɨɨndɨ ˆjikalooke, Masadukáayo, noo kʉsea vaantʉ vara ˆvaséaa kusiina kʉfʉfʉka tʉkʉ, vajáa vamʉʉjɨra Yéesu,BSBBSB: Then some of the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to question Him.
28. 28LAGmaa vakamuurya, “Mukiindya, Mʉ́sa ajáa atwaandɨkɨra, ‘Koonɨ mʉʉntʉ akwíire baa kʉva na vaana tʉkʉ, mwaanaavo yoosaakwa amʉpaale ʉwo mʉlala sa amʉvyaarɨre vaana mwaanaavo ʉra ˆaakwya.’BSBBSB: “Teacher,” they said, “Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, the man is to marry his brother’s widow and raise up offspring for him.
29. 29LAGHaaha, kʉjáa kwatɨɨte vaana valʉme mufungatɨ va mʉʉntʉ ʉmwɨ. Ndaambere yaachwe ajáa aloola, maa akawulala baa kʉva na mwaana tʉkʉ.BSBBSB: Now there were seven brothers. The first one married a wife but died childless.
30. 30LAGWa kavɨrɨ akamʉpaala ʉwo mʉlala, ne akawulala baa reka mwaana tʉkʉ.BSBBSB: Then the second
31. 31LAGWa katatʉ ne akamʉpaala ʉwo mʉlaala, ne akakwya baa reka mwaana tʉkʉ. Ɨkava viivyo kwa vaana voosi mufungatɨ ˆvamʉloola ʉra mʉʉntʉ muki, na kusiina ˆareka mwaana tʉkʉ.BSBBSB: and the third married the widow, and in the same way all seven died, leaving no children.
32. 32LAGMaa reerʉ ʉra mwaana muki akawulala.BSBBSB: And last of all, the woman died.
33. 33LAGHaaha, sikʉ ya ʉfʉfʉ́ʉko nɨ muki wa ani arɨ kʉva? Sa ajáa aloolwa nɨ voosi mufungatɨ.”BSBBSB: So then, in the resurrection, whose wife will she be? For all seven were married to her.”
34. 34LAGYéesu akavasea, “Aha weerwii vaantʉ valóolaa no loolwa.BSBBSB: Jesus answered, “The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage.
35. 35LAGMaa kaa, vara ˆvarɨ valwa nɨ Mʉlʉʉngʉ, vafʉfʉlwe fuma inkwyii na vaturye nkalo weerwii ifya, avo sɨ varɨ loola no loolwa tʉkʉ.BSBBSB: But those who are considered worthy to share in the age to come and in the resurrection from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage.
36. 36LAGAva sɨ varɨ kukwya kei tʉkʉ, sa avo kʉva varɨ ja mirimʉ miija. Voovo nɨ vaana va Mʉlʉʉngʉ sa voovo nɨ vaana ˆvafʉfʉlwa.BSBBSB: In fact, they can no longer die, because they are like the angels. And since they are sons of the resurrection, they are sons of God.
37. 37LAGMaa kaa, kwa isáare ra vara ˆvaakwya kʉfʉfʉka, baa Mʉ́sa alʉʉsa vaantʉ ˆvaakwya fʉfʉka varɨ. Alʉʉsa aya masáarii ya rɨra itʉʉndʉ ˆrakoreráa mooto. Alʉʉsa ˆakamwaanɨrɨre Ijʉva nɨ Mʉlʉʉngʉ wa Aburaháamu, Mʉlʉʉngʉ wa Isaka na wa Yaakúupu.BSBBSB: Even Moses demonstrates that the dead are raised, in the passage about the burning bush. For he calls the Lord ‘the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’
38. 38LAGYeeye sɨ Mʉlʉʉngʉ wa vaantʉ ˆvaakwya tʉkʉ. Yeeye nɨ Mʉlʉʉngʉ wa vaantʉ ˆvarɨ nkaasʉ, na kwaachwe voosi nɨ nkaasʉ varɨ.”BSBBSB: He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to Him all are alive.”
39. 39LAGVamwɨ va vakiindya va Miiro vakamʉsea, “Mukiindya, ulúusire kɨkomi kamwɨ!”BSBBSB: Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, You have spoken well!”
40. 40LAGKwaandɨra aho, kusiina ˆayera kumuurya tʉkʉ.BSBBSB: And they did not dare to question Him any further.
41. 41LAGAho, maa Yéesu akavuurya, “Eri, nɨ joolɨ vyaava vaantʉ vandoomwaanɨrɨra Masía Mwaana wa mʉtemi Daúdi?BSBBSB: Then Jesus declared, “How can it be said that the Christ is the Son of David?
42. 42LAGDaúdi mweeneevyo alʉʉsa jei kɨtáabwii cha Sabúuri, ‘Ijʉva amuwyɨɨra Mweenevyoosi waanɨ, “Ikala mʉkono waanɨ wa kʉlʉme,BSBBSB: For David himself says in the book of Psalms: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand
43. 43LAGfʉʉrʉ nɨvavɨɨke vavɨ vaako, vave kabambari ko vɨkɨra majeo yaako.”’BSBBSB: until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.”’
44. 44LAGKoonɨ Daúdi yoomwaanɨrɨra ‘Mweenevyoosi’ waachwe, haaha joolɨ Masía arɨ kʉva Mwaana wa Daúdi?”BSBBSB: Thus David calls Him ‘Lord.’ So how can He be David’s son?”
45. 45LAGNa mpɨɨndɨ vaantʉ voosi ˆvamʉteereráa, Yéesu akavasea vapooji vaachwe,BSBBSB: In the hearing of all the people, Jesus said to His disciples,
46. 46LAG“Mʉvalaange neeja vakiindya va Miiro. Voovo veenda kwiivɨkɨra nkáancho ndɨɨhɨ na veenda luumbiwa kwa nyemi masóokwii. Kei, veenda kwiikala machuumbii ya mbere masinagóogii, na na haantʉ ha nyemi ngovii.BSBBSB: “Beware of the scribes. They like to walk around in long robes, and they love the greetings in the marketplaces, the chief seats in the synagogues, and the places of honor at banquets.
47. 47LAGVanyáhɨraa nyuumba ja valala. Na ʉkweembi vamʉlóombaa Mʉlʉʉngʉ vilɨɨhɨlɨɨhɨ. Vaantʉ ja ava, heewa varɨ irya ikʉʉlʉ fuma kwa Mʉlʉʉngʉ.”BSBBSB: They defraud widows of their houses, and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will receive greater condemnation.”
