Mark 11 (LUG) · Opened

1Awo Yesu n’abayigirizwa be, bwe baali basemberedde Besufaage ne Besaniya ebiriraanye Yerusaalemi, nga batuuse ku lusozi olwa Zeyituuni, Yesu n’atuma abayigirizwa be babiri babasooke mu maaso.As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent out two of His disciples

2N’abalagira nti, “Mugende mu kyalo ekituli mu maaso, bwe munaaba mwakakituukamu mujja kulaba omwana gw’endogoyi oguteebagalwangako nga gusibiddwa awo. Mugusumulule mugundeetere wano.and said to them, “Go into the village ahead of you, and as soon as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, on which no one has ever sat. Untie it and bring it here.

3Era omuntu yenna bw’ababuuza gye mugutwala, mumuddamu nti, ‘Mukama waffe y’agwetaaga, era tujja kugukomyawo mangu.’ ”If anyone asks, ‘Why are you doing this?’ tell him, ‘The Lord needs it and will return it shortly.’”

4Abaatumibwa ne bagenda, ne balaba omwana gw’endogoyi nga guyimiridde ku luguudo, naye nga gusibiddwa ku muguwa wabweru w’ennyumba. Bwe baali bagusumulula,So they went and found the colt outside in the street, tied at a doorway. They untied it,

5abamu ku bantu abaali bayimiridde awo ne bababuuza nti, “Abange, omwana gw’endogoyi, musumulula gwa ki?”and some who were standing there asked, “Why are you untying the colt?”

6Abayigirizwa ne baddamu nga Yesu bwe yabagamba, ne balyoka babakkiriza okugutwala.The disciples answered as Jesus had instructed them, and the people gave them permission.

7Omwana gw’endogoyi ne baguleetera Yesu. Abayigirizwa be ne baddira ebyambalo byabwe ne babyaliira ku mugongo gwayo, Yesu n’agwebagala.Then they led the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks over it, and He sat on it.

8Awo abantu bangi abaali mu kibiina ne baaliira engoye zaabwe mu luguudo mwe yali agenda okuyita, abalala ne bamenya amatabi g’emiti mu nnimiro ezaali okumpi, nago ne bagaalira mu luguudo.Many in the crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut from the fields.

9Abaali mu maaso ge n’abaali emabega we, bonna ne baleekaanira waggulu nti: “Ozaana!” “Atenderezebwe oyo ajja mu linnya lya Mukama!”The ones who went ahead and those who followed were shouting: “Hosanna!” “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!”

10“Atenderezebwe olw’okukomyawo obwakabaka bwa jjajjaffe Dawudi n’okubuwa omukisa!” “Ozaana! Ayi ali waggulu ennyo!”“Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David!” “Hosanna in the highest!”

11Awo Yesu n’atuuka mu Yerusaalemi, n’ayingira mu Yeekaalu. N’atunula, ne yeetoolooza amaaso wonna, naye obudde bwali buyise, n’afuluma n’agenda e Besaniya n’abayigirizwa be ekkumi n’ababiri.Then Jesus entered Jerusalem and went into the temple courts. He looked around at everything, but since it was already late, He went out to Bethany with the Twelve.

12Enkeera bwe baali bava e Besaniya, Yesu n’alumwa enjala.The next day, when they had left Bethany, Jesus was hungry.

13N’alengera omutiini, nga guddugazza bulungi amalagala, n’agendayo alabe obanga anaasangako ebibala. Yagenda okugutuukako nga kuliko makoola meereere, kubanga si kye kyali ekiseera kyagwo okubaako ebibala.Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, He went to see if there was any fruit on it. But when He reached it, He found nothing on it except leaves, since it was not the season for figs.

14Awo Yesu n’agamba omuti nti, “Omuntu yenna alemenga okuddayo okulya ekibala kyo!” Abayigirizwa be ne bamuwulira ng’akyogera.Then He said to the tree, “May no one ever eat of your fruit again.” And His disciples heard this statement.

15Bwe baatuuka mu Yerusaalemi n’ayingira mu Yeekaalu, n’atandika okugobamu abaali batundiramu n’abaali baguliramu, n’avuunika emmeeza z’abaali bawaanyisa ensimbi, n’avuunika n’entebe z’abatunzi b’amayiba.When they arrived in Jerusalem, Jesus entered the temple courts and began to drive out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those selling doves.

16Era n’ataganya muntu kuyisa kintu kyonna.And He would not allow anyone to carry merchandise through the temple courts.

17N’abayigiriza ng’agamba nti, “Tekyawandiikabwa nti, ‘Ennyumba yange eneebanga nnyumba ya kusabiramu amawanga?’ Naye mmwe mugifudde mpuku y’abanyazi.”Then Jesus began to teach them, and He declared, “Is it not written: ‘My house will be called a house of prayer for all the nations’? But you have made it ‘a den of robbers.’”

18Bakabona abakulu n’abannyonnyozi b’amateeka bwe baakiwulira, ne batandika okusala amagezi balabe bwe bayinza okumuzikiriza. Baali bamutya engeri ekibiina kyonna bwe kyali kyewuunya okuyigiriza kwe.When the chief priests and scribes heard this, they looked for a way to kill Him. For they were afraid of Him, because the whole crowd was astonished at His teaching.

19Obudde bwe bwawungeera Yesu n’abayigirizwa be ne bafuluma mu kibuga.And when evening came, Jesus and His disciples went out of the city.

20Awo enkeera mu makya abayigirizwa be ne balaba omuti omutiini Yesu gwe yakolimira nga gukaze okuviira ddala ku kikolo!As they were walking back in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered from its roots.

21Peetero n’ajjukira n’agamba Yesu nti, “Omuyigiriza, laba omutiini gwe wakolimira gukaze!”Peter remembered it and said, “Look, Rabbi! The fig tree You cursed has withered.”

22Yesu n’agamba abayigirizwa be nti, “Mukkiririze mu Katonda.“Have faith in God,” Jesus said to them.

23Ddala ddala mbagamba nti buli aligamba olusozi luno nti, ‘Siguka ogwe mu nnyanja,’ n’atabuusabuusa mu mutima gwe, naye n’aba n’okukkiriza, ky’ayogedde kirituukirira.“Truly I tell you that if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and has no doubt in his heart but believes that it will happen, it will be done for him.

24Noolwekyo mbagamba nti buli kye munaasabanga, mukkirize nti mukiweereddwa, era kinaabanga bwe kityo gye muli.Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

25Bwe mubanga mugenda okusaba musonyiwenga omuntu yenna gwe mulinako ensonga, ne Kitammwe ali mu ggulu alyoke abasonyiwe ebyonoono byammwe.And when you stand to pray, if you hold anything against another, forgive it, so that your Father in heaven will forgive your trespasses as well.”

26Naye bwe mutaasonyiwenga, ne Kitammwe ali mu ggulu talibasonyiwa byonoono byammwe.”Not in the BSB

27Yesu n’abayigirizwa be bwe baakomawo mu Yerusaalemi yali atambulatambula mu Yeekaalu, bakabona abakulu n’abannyonnyozi b’amateeka n’abakulembeze b’Abayudaaya ne bajja gy’aliAfter their return to Jerusalem, Jesus was walking in the temple courts, and the chief priests, scribes, and elders came up to Him.

28ne bamubuuza nti, “Buyinza ki obukukoza bino? Era ani yakuwa obuyinza okukola bino?”“By what authority are You doing these things?” they asked. “And who gave You the authority to do them?”

29Naye Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Bwe munaamala okunziramu ekibuuzo kyange kimu, nange n’ababuulira eyampa obuyinza obwo!“I will ask you one question,” Jesus replied, “and if you answer Me, I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things.

30Okubatiza kwa Yokaana kwava mu ggulu oba kwava eri bantu? Munziremu!”John’s baptism—was it from heaven or from men? Answer Me!”

31Ne bakubaganya ebirowoozo bokka na bokka nti, “Bwe tuddamu nti, ‘Kwava mu ggulu,’ ajja kutubuuza nti, ‘Kale, lwaki temwamukkiriza?’They deliberated among themselves what they should answer: “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will ask, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’

32Naye, ate bwe tuddamu nti, ‘Kwava eri bantu.’ ” Baali batya ekibiina ky’abantu. Kubanga buli muntu yalowooza Yokaana okuba nnabbi.But if we say, ‘From men’...” they were afraid of the people, for they all held that John truly was a prophet.

33Ne baddamu Yesu nti, “Tetumanyi.” Awo Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Nange sijja kubabuulira obuyinza obunkoza ebintu ebyo gye mbuggya.”So they answered, “We do not know.” And Jesus replied, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
