Matthew 10 (MGV)

1Yesu jaakemaa pamu banafunzi baki komi na abeli, jaapekiya uwesu gukupia ilombu nuku lamisa magonzu na mang'alisu goka.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.

2Mahina ga atumi haba ganga: jutumbuli Simoni jobunkemika Petili nundonguwaki Andilea na Yakobu nu ndongu waki Yohana bana baka Zebedayu.These are the names of the twelve apostles: first Simon, called Peter, and his brother Andrew; James son of Zebedee, and his brother John;

3Pilipi na Batolomayu na Tomasi na Matei jojabii jojujopa kodi na Yakobu mwana waka Alufayo na Tadei,Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;

4Simoni jojukomane nndema waki na Yuda Isikalioti joang'anumbuka Yesu.Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus.

5Yesu jaatumaa atumi komi na abeli haba, jaapekia uwesu nakaalagalaki, “Mwijenda kwa bandu banga Ayaudi, wala mwijingi mmisi ya Asamalia.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.

6Ila nzendannya kwa bandu buku Izilaeli baobiki ngati makondoo gagahobiki.Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel.

7Enzenda, mkalandila ana, ‘Ubambu ukolongu waka Sapanga guegali.’As you go, preach this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven is near.’

8Mwalamisa agonzu, mwaayoa baawii na mwaanyambisa baaleliki, mwakapia ilombu. Mpatiki bwaka mwakaboa bwaka.Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give.

9Mwiitoto zaabu mumipuku jinu wala feza, wala lingengalema la shaba.Do not take along any gold or silver or copper in your belts.

10Mwitoto nkoba wa sapwali mwiindela, wala majalisi mabeli wala makobasi mabeli wala ndonga. Ndaba jojuhenga lihengu jwiipata gajupala kila lisoba.”Take no bag for the road, or second tunic, or sandals, or staff; for the worker is worthy of his provisions.

11“Emwakajingala ku musi au kijiji sokapi mukuntaputa mundu jwaamboni jojupai kunzopa, mwakatama pala mbaka pamwiboka.Whatever town or village you enter, find out who is worthy there and stay at his house until you move on.

12Emwakajingala mu nyumba mwakalamukiya bandu babii nyumba mola, ‘Lukwali lubia na mwanganya.’As you enter the home, greet its occupants.

13Ana bandu ba nyumba bunzopiki, ndienu lukwali lwinu lwibiya pamu nabombi. Lakini anangasebunzopiki, ndienu lukwali lukunkelabukia mwabee.If the home is worthy, let your peace rest on it, but if it is not, let your peace return to you.

14Ana mundu jokapi jwiikana kunzopa au kunzoane malobi ginu, emwakaboka mu nyumba jeheji au musi wehogu, mwakakung'unda luhombi mu magolu kulangi akaniki kunzopa.And if anyone will not welcome you or heed your words, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that home or town.

15Numpwaagi sakaka, lisoba lu kutemu bandu bamusi hogu biitemuliwa ngani kupeta bandu buku musi uku Sodoma na Gomola.Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town.

16“Nnzoaniya, nepani nuntuma mwanganya ngati makondoo pikilanda ji imei. Henu mmbia na malangu ngati lijoka, na mmbia mwaapoli ngati ngunda.Behold, I am sending you out like sheep among wolves; therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.

17Nzepana na bandu, ndaba bampelika mwanganya ku sengu, nukunndapu iboku munyumba yabu yukuketangane Ayaudi.But beware of men, for they will hand you over to their councils and flog you in their synagogues.

18Bampelika palongi ja aka kilongosi na aka bambu akolongu ndaba jangu nepani, nndandila Lijambu la Amboni kwabu na kwa bandu banga Ayaudi.On My account you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles.

19Lakini pabankamula mwanganya, mwihangajika kuwasali gamwiipwaga, ndaba mwipata sukupwaga muda gogo.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.

20Ndaba nga mwanganya mo mwibia mwakalongila ila Loho ja Atati binu biipwaga kupete mwanganya.For it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.

21“Mundu ang'anumbuka nndongu waki ili jukomika, na atati banng'anumbuka mwanamundu, nabombi bana bahang'anambuka atati na amabu babu na kaakoma.Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will rise against their parents and have them put to death.

22Bandu boti bansukila mwanganya ndaba jukunhobale nepani. Lakini jojihinakaliya mbaka pa mwisu, ndi jojikombulika.You will be hated by everyone because of My name, but the one who perseveres to the end will be saved.

23Pabanng'alisa mmusi gumu, mwitilila mmusi gongi. Numpwagi sakaka, ngamwijomo lihengu lii mmisi joti juku Izilaeli kabula Mwana waka Mundu kuhika.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“Mmbolee ngasejuwesa kumpeta mmbola waki wala mtumisi ngase juwesa kumpeta bambu waki.A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master.

25Lakini tosa mmbolee kuba ngati mmbola waki, nu mtumisi kuba ngati bambu waki. Ila anabunkemiki nkolongu jwa nyumba Belizebuli, boo, bandu baatama mu nyumba mola nga bunkemi mahina giliya ngane?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“Ndienu, mwaajogopa bandu. Kila sindu sekiyekaliki sitenda kuyekulika, na kila sekihikiki sitenda kubonikana.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.

27Lenumpwagi mwanganya mulwii, mlipwaaga pu unang'anu ni lijambu lemwilijoini alonge suku bolane, mwililandila pangwendu.What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the housetops.

28Mwaajogopa babijikoma nhyega, lakini ngaseawesa kujikoma loho. Nambanga kunzogopa jojuwesa kualabana nhyega pamu na loho mu mwotu wanga kususuka masoba goha.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.

29Boo, hiweba ibeli lee ngasealomba kwa mangengalema mabeli masoku? Lakini nga hata jumu wabu jojukuwa bila Atati binu kupala.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.

30Hata majunzu gagabii ku imutu yii gabalangiki.And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

31Henu mwijogopa, ndaba mwanganya Sapanga ampala ngani kupeta ijuni yoti.So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

32“Kila mundu jojunyetake nepani palongi ja bandu, kabee nanzetakiya palongi ja Atati bangu baabii kunani kwaka Sapanga.Therefore everyone who confesses Me before men, I will also confess him before My Father in heaven.

33Lakini mundu jokapi jojingana palongi ja bandu, nanepani nankana palongi ja Atati bangu baabii kunani kwaka Sapanga.But whoever denies Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father in heaven.

34“Mwiwasali nepani nhikiki kwahenga bandu atama nulukwali pundema. Ngahela, ngasenhikiki kuleta lukwali ila ngondu.Do not assume that I have come to bring peace to the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.

35Ndaba nhikiki kukomanisa kati jaka mundu na atati mundu na kamwali na amabu baki na kati ja anhyalamundu na akowanu baki.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.

36Nu mbaja waka mundu ndi bandu buku nyumba jaki.A man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’

37“Jokapi jojapai atati na amabu baki kuliku ejumbala nepani, ngasejupalika kuba mbolee wango. Na jokapi joampai mwana waki au kamwali waki kuliku ejumbai nepani, ngasejupalika kuba mbolee wango.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;

38Mundu jwanga kujuku nsalaba waki nukumbwata, ngasejupalika kuba mbolee wango.and anyone who does not take up his cross and follow Me is not worthy of Me.

39Jojukamulaki womi waki ndaba jukunhobale nepani jitenda kuguhoa, lakini jojuhoa womi waki ndaba jangu nepani, jiipata kabee.Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.

40“Jojunzopa mwanganya, junyopa nepani, na jojunyopa nepani anzopa jojundumike.He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives the One who sent Me.

41Joanzopa mlota waka Sapanga ndaba mlota waka Sapanga, hoju jijopa nhupi yuku mlota waka Sapanga. Joanzopa mundu jwa amboni palongi jaka Sapanga, jijopa nhupi yaka mundu jwa amboni.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.

42Numpwagi sakaka, jokapi joampeke jumu jwa apwasi bangu banga kumanyikana, kikombi sa masi mahimu ndaba ja kuba mmbolee jwangu, hoju jiipata nhupi jaki.”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.”
