Matthew 10 (MGH2016)

1Yesu aheehana owiittucha awe khumi ni elhi, nkhaavaha ikuru yo woomolha mashoka o unanara ni waalhamiha attu ikwerere ni mareta onkhaye.And calling His twelve disciples to Him, Jesus gave them authority over unclean spirits, so that they could drive them out and heal every disease and sickness.

2Machina aya akarumiya khumi ni elhi ayo phi alha, o upachera Nasimoni eehaniya Peturo ni ahima aya Naandorea, Nayakhobo ashaana a Nazebedayo, Nayohana nhima aya,These are the names of the twelve apostles: first Simon, called Peter, and his brother Andrew; James son of Zebedee, and his brother John;

3Nafilipo, Nabatolomayo, Natomaso, Namatayo aalhiviha ikhodi, Nayakhobo ashaana a Naalufayo, ni Natadayo,Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;

4Nasimoni o Ukaanani, ni Nayuda Isikariote anthuminhe Yesu.Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus.

5Yesu nkaaruma khumi ni elhi ayo ni waalhehera choo, “Nhirwee iwani cha attu ahiri Ayahudi, mena nhikelhe mmawani mwa Asamariya.These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions: “Do not go onto the road of the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans.

6Nansho, nrweeke wa attu o inupa yo Israeli apotenre thoko ikhondoro chihiri ni nshunga.Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel.

7Vanorwaa inyu mwettuchiheke wiira, ‘Umwene wo wiirimu uhatameria!’As you go, preach this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven is near.’

8Mwaalhamiheke areta, mwaahihimusheke attu akhwilhee, mwaalhamiheke attu o makutulha, mwoomolheke mashoka. Nvahiye wo maphathi mwakumiheke wo maphathi.Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give.

9Nhikushe mmirupani mwinyu idhahabu mena nchurukhu mena nchurukhu wo shaba.Do not take along any gold or silver or copper in your belts.

10Nhikushe nrupa wo uvekelhelha mphironi mena mwiinjiro wo nayelhi, mena iratu cho nayelhi mena ikopo. Ukhalhawaya namitheko hophwanelhiya malhivo.Take no bag for the road, or second tunic, or sandals, or staff; for the worker is worthy of his provisions.

11“Vanophiya inyu vawani ama ittoko iriyoothe, mwamwaavieke mommo ntu nottuna upocherani, mwakhalheke vavawo mpaka vanohalha inyu uthama vawo.Whatever town or village you enter, find out who is worthy there and stay at his house until you move on.

12Vanokelha inyu mpaani mwa ntu mweereke ‘Mpuha ukhalhe ni inyu.’As you enter the home, greet its occupants.

13Yakhalhaka anenchi o yeyo inupa iyo anowupocherani mwaattiva, nhiyeke mpuha unolhapelha inyu ukhalhe ni ayo. Nansho yaahupocherekeni mwaattiva, paahi nhokolhosheke mpuha nnolhapelha inyu uyo.If the home is worthy, let your peace rest on it, but if it is not, let your peace return to you.

14Yakhalhaka inupa ama iwani khayopochenreni, paahi vanokhuma inyu yeyo inupa iyo au yeyo iwani iyo, ni ukukutta ntukurukhu nnyaani mwinyu ikhalheke phi iphiro yo waamuka.And if anyone will not welcome you or heed your words, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that home or town.

15Kinouhimeriani wo ikekhiaye wiira, Nihuku no Uhukumulhiya attu nno, ilhapo cho Usodoma ni Ugomora chinowa chaavilhelha ntwarusho, upwaha yeyo iwani iyo!Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town.

16“Mwiiweke! Vano mii, kinourumani mwaattiva thoko ikhondoro umiichini. Mpenyeke thoko inwaa, ni wiitimarikha thoko kaulha.Behold, I am sending you out like sheep among wolves; therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.

17Mwiichiinanelheke ni attu, ukhalhawaya nnoowa mwaavariya ni urwehiya umilhatuni ni waatiya ikopo mmanupani mwaya mwo unlhapelha Nlhuku.But beware of men, for they will hand you over to their councils and flog you in their synagogues.

18Nnoowa mwaarweehiya wa attu antawara ni wo mamwene, mwahimiecheshe Malhove Orera uwannyaya ni wa attu ahiri Ayahudi wo nlhatu waka.On My account you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles.

19Paahi etu, vanohalha aya urwehani mwaattiva umilhatuni vawo, nhikelhiye nipampa chinohalha inyu wulhumacha ama nlhove naani ninohalha inyu uhimiacha, ikatema yaphiyaka, nnoowa uvahiya ittu yo uhimia.But when they hand you over, do not worry about how to respond or what to say. In that hour you will be given what to say.

20Ukhalhawaya malhove anohalha inyu wulhumacha ayo kahiwe awinyu, anowa ukhuma wa Iphumu ya Athithi inyu olhumachaka wo malhaku inyu.For it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.

21“Attu anowa waathumiha achihimaya eeviye, ni manyanaangoro anowa waathumiha achishaana aya, ni ashaana anowa wapitikulhelha manyanaangoro ni weevakacha.Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will rise against their parents and have them put to death.

22Attu onkhaye anowa uuvengani wo nlhatu wo nchina naka. Nansho nohalha uvilhelha mpaka nihuku no umalhelha phi uyo nohalha woopolhiya.You will be hated by everyone because of My name, but the one who perseveres to the end will be saved.

23“Mwavengiyaka iwani imoka, nttawelheke iwani ikina. Ikekhia kinouhimeriani kannomalhiha nkwaha inyu iwani chonkhaye cho Uisraeli Mwaana a Ntu hinaphiya.When they persecute you in one town, flee to the next. Truly I tell you, you will not reach all the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes.

24“Khaawo owiittucha naapwaha owiittuchiha awe, mena karumiya nompwaha mwanene ntheko awe.A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master.

25Wo chiichammo ihothosha owiittucha ukhalha ni ikuru thoko owiittuchiha awe ni karumiya ukhalha thoko mwanene ntheko. Yakhalhaka aneehana anene imbumba ya Belzebuli, chani akina khaneehana wo machina o uhilhoka!It is enough for a disciple to be like his teacher, and a servant like his master. If the head of the house has been called Beelzebul, how much more the members of his household!

26“Wo chiichammo etu nhoove attu. Ittu ikhunelhiye inowa yaapatakulhiya, ni ittu ivithiye inowa uhumbukulhiya.So do not be afraid of them. For there is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, and nothing hidden that will not be made known.

27Chinouhimeriakani mwaattiva mwiipiphini, nhimiacheke voonene, nlhove niiwilhe inyu naapiyaka mmweeke mwaahimiacha nneemenlhe vanchaarani.What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the housetops.

28Nhoove attu aneeva iruttu nansho ahooriaka wiiva nnepa, nansho mmwooveke Nlhuku, nooria wiiva chonkhaye iruttu vamoka ni nnepa umooroni Ujehannamu.Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Instead, fear the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.

29Athooche elhi anothumihiya wo isenti imoka, nansho khaawo ata mmoka nomora vathi Athithi inyu wo uhichuwelha.Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from the will of your Father.

30Nansho uwaninyu mwaattiva, ata ikharari chinyu cho mmuruni chihaalhakelhiya chonkhaye.And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

31Nhoove etu, mwaattiva nri o ukhulhuvelhiya chinene waapwaha athooche enchi!So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

32“Attu onkhaye anorumelhelha vaattuni wiira phi awaka, ni mii chiicho kinoowa kaarumelhelha wa Athumwanaka arii wiirimu.Therefore everyone who confesses Me before men, I will also confess him before My Father in heaven.

33Nansho ntu riyoothe nohalha ukikhota vaattuni, ni mii kinowa kankhota wa Athumwanaka ari wiirimu.But whoever denies Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father in heaven.

34“Nhaanyihere wiira kiwiihilhe mpuha velhaponi. Mena, akiwanne mpuha, nansho uphanga.Do not assume that I have come to bring peace to the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.

35Kiwiihilhe umwalhaana ntu ni athumwanawe, mwalhi ni anumwanawe, mmokohi ni ahokohi awe,For I have come to turn ‘a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.

36amalhaponi inyu anowa ukhalha phi attu o mmanupani mwinyu.A man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’

37“Ntu naattuna athumwanawe ama anumwanawe chinene ukhiphwaha mii, yoyo khamphwanelhiya ukhalha owiittucha aka, ni ntu naattuna achishaana awe ashilhophwana ni ashithiyana chinene ukiphwaha mii yoyo khaphwanelhiye ukhalha owiittucha aka.Anyone who loves his father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; anyone who loves his son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me;

38Ntu hinokusha nsalaaba awe ni ukittwara inyaa chaka khanooria ukhalha owiittucha aka.and anyone who does not take up his cross and follow Me is not worthy of Me.

39Ntu novarechesha ukumi awe unonkulhuphuwa, nansho ntu hinovarechesha ukumi awe wo nlhatu waka nowa upatta tho.Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.

40“Ntu riyoothe no upocherani mwaattiva nokipochera mii, ni uyo nokipochera mii naapochera akirumilhe.He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives the One who sent Me.

41Ntu nompochera namilhohi a Nlhuku wo nlhatu no ukhalha namilhohi a Nlhuku, nowa upochera nttuvo no namilhohi. Ni ntu riyoothe nompochera ntu o nrima woombone wo nlhatu wo urera nrima, nowa upatta nttuvo no utawara.Whoever receives a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward, and whoever receives a righteous man because he is a righteous man will receive a righteous man’s reward.

42Kinouhimeriani wo ikekhiaye wiira, ntu riyoothe nohalha ummaha mmoka aya alha ashinkani alha nkawo wo maashi o uririya wo nlhatu wo ukhalha owiittucha aka, we ikeekhene khanowa aathuwiya nttuvo nawe.”And if anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones because he is My disciple, truly I tell you, he will never lose his reward.”
