Matthew 10 (MWE)

1A Yeshu gubhaashemilenje bhaajiganywa bhabho likumi limo na bhabhili, gubhaapelenje mashili ga shoya maoka na lamya ilwele na ungakola mashili gwa kila namuna.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.

2Mena gabhonji mitume likumi limo na bhabhilibho ni gegano, bhantai a Shimoni bhashemwaga a Petili, na apwabho a Ndeleya, na a Yakobho na a Yowana bhana bha a Shebhedayo, naThese are the names of the twelve apostles: first Simon, called Peter, and his brother Andrew; James son of Zebedee, and his brother John;

3a Pilipi na a Bhatolomeyo, na a Tomashi na a Matei bhakamula koli, na a Yakobho bhanabhabho a Alupayo, na a TadeiPhilip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;

4na a Shimoni Bhakanaani, na a Yuda Ishikaliote bhaatendebhwishe a Yeshu.Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus.

5A Yeshu gubhaatumilenje mitume likumi limo na bhabhili bhala gubhaalajiyenje bhalinkuti, “Nnajendangane ku bhandu bhangabha Bhayaudi, wala nnajinjilanje mwiilambo ya Bhashamalia.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.

6Ikabhe nnjendangane ku bhandu bha Ishilaeli bhaobhilenje mbuti ngondolo.Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel.

7Pushinnjendangane nnunguyanje nnei, ‘Upalume gwa Kunnungu ubhandishile.’As you go, preach this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven is near.’

8Nnamiyanje bhalwelenji, nnyuyanje bhawilenje na nnamyanje bhakwetenje mangundula na nshoyanje maoka. Nshipegwanga gwayoyo, nshoyanje gwayoyo.Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give.

9Nnajigalanje mmbiya yoyowe mmiuko jenunji.Do not take along any gold or silver or copper in your belts.

10Nnajigalanje nng'uko mumpanda, wala lishati lya tingiganya, wala ilatu ya tindiganya, wala imbo. Pabha atenda maengo anapinjikwa alipwe.Take no bag for the road, or second tunic, or sandals, or staff; for the worker is worthy of his provisions.

11“Nnjinjilangaga nshilambo eu shijiji shoshowe, munnoleyanje mundu jwa pwaa na ntamangane kunngwakwe mpaka pushinjabhulanje.Whatever town or village you enter, find out who is worthy there and stay at his house until you move on.

12Punkujinjilanga nnyumba, mwaajujilanje ulele.As you enter the home, greet its occupants.

13Na ashaayene gwene muigo bhamposhelangaga, bhai ulele gwenunji shugwapwaanje, ikabheje bhakamposhelanje, ulele gwenunji shugummujilanje mmanganyanji.If the home is worthy, let your peace rest on it, but if it is not, let your peace return to you.

14Monaga mundu akanaga kumposhelanga eu kumpilikanilanga, bhai pushinshokanje jene nyumbajo eu shene shilambosho, nkung'undanje ndutuli mmakongono genunji ibhe shilangulo sha kwaaleyanga ga kana ntenga gwa a Nnungu.And if anyone will not welcome you or heed your words, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that home or town.

15Kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, lyubha lya ukumu bhandunji bha shene shilambosho bhapinga patanga mboteko, kupunda yaapatilenje bhandunji bha ilambo ya Shodoma 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“Nnolanje, ngunakuntumanga malinga ngondolo munkumbi gwa maogo, bhai nkolanje lunda malinga lijoka na mwiitimalikanje malinga ngunda.Behold, I am sending you out like sheep among wolves; therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.

17Mwiiteiganje na bhandunji, pabha shibhanshitakiyanje kulukumbi na kunkomanga ibhoko mmashinagogi gabhonji.But beware of men, for they will hand you over to their councils and flog you in their synagogues.

18Shimpelekwanje ku bhatagwala na bhapalume kwa ligongo lyangu nne, nkupinga nngong'ondelanje kunngwabhonji na kubhandunji bhangabha Bhayaudi.On My account you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles.

19Bhai, pushimpelekwanje ku bhaukumula, nnakolanje lipamba kuti shimmeleketanje nndi, pabha malanga gaishilaga shimpegwanje sha bheleketa.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.

20Pabha nngabha mmanganyanji shimmeleketanje, ikabhe Mbumu jwa Ainabhenunji a Nnungu abheleketa kupitila mmanganyanji.For it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.

21“Mundu shantendebhushe mpwakwe nkupinga abhulagwe na ainamundu shibhantendebhushe mwanagwabho na bhana shibhaatendebhukanje bhaakwetenje nikwaabhulaganga.Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will rise against their parents and have them put to death.

22Bhandunji bhowe bhapinga kunshimanga mmanganya kwa ligongo lyangu nne. Ikabheje shaipililile mpaka kumpelo, shatapulwe.You will be hated by everyone because of My name, but the one who perseveres to the end will be saved.

23“Bhandu bhampotekangaga nshilambo shimo, mmutushilanje shilambo shina. Kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, nkamaliyanga ilambo yowe ya Ishilaeli Mwana juka Mundu akanabhe ika.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“Nkujiganywa akakumpunda nkujiganya jwakwe, wala ntumwa akakwaapunda bhakulungwa bhakwe.A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master.

25Inakomboleka bhaajiganywa kubha malinga bhaajiganya bhabho, naka ntumwa kubha malinga bhakulungwa bhakwe. Monaga bhaashemilenje bhayene nyumba Bhelishebhuli, shibhaashemanje mena ga nyata kaje bhandu bha nnyumba jabho.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“Bhai, nnaajogopanje bhene bhandunjibho, pabha shoshowe shiunishilwe shipinga unukulwa, na shoshowe shiishwe shipinga undukulwa.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.

27Lingummalanjilanga pa lubhindu, mmalanganje pashilangaya na limpilikenenje shinong'ona nnunguyanje palugwinjili.What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the housetops.

28Nnaajogopanje bhabhulaganga shiilupe, ikabheje bhakaakombolanga kuobhya mbumu, mbaya kwaajogopa bhakombola kuobhya shiilu na mbumu kumoto gwa ku Jeanamu.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.

29Ndyondyo ibhili ikaushwa kwa ela jimope? Ikabheje jwakwa nkali jumo agwa pai gwangali Ainabhenunji a Nnungu kumumanya,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.

30ikabheje mmanganyanji, nkali umbo ya mmitwe jenunji ishibhalanganywa yowe.And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

31Bhai nnajogopanje, mmanganyanji mmammbonenji kupunda ndyondyo yaigwinji.So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

32“Mundu jojowe aangunda pa bhandu kuti jwangu, na nne shinyiye kunkong'ondela kwa Atati bhali kunnungu.Therefore everyone who confesses Me before men, I will also confess him before My Father in heaven.

33Ikabheje jojowe shaangane pa bhandu, numbe nne shininkane kwa Atati bhali kunnungu.But whoever denies Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father in heaven.

34“Nnaganishiyaje kuti njikwiya peleka ulele pa shilambolyo, nngabha! Nangajiya peleka ulele ikabhe ngondo.Do not assume that I have come to bring peace to the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.

35Pabha njikwiya kwaalekanyanga mundu na ainagwe, mwali na akwabhe, akwemundu na nkamwanagwabho,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.

36ashaamagongo bhaka mundu, bhandu bha nnyumba jakwe.A man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’

37“Akwaapinga ainagwe eu akwabhe kupunda shaambinga nne, akakombola kubha nkujiganywa jwangu, wala akumpinga mwanagwe eu nabhiti jwakwe kupunda nne, akakombola kubha nkujiganywa jwangu.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;

38Wala mundu akaujigale nshalabha gwakwe ningagula akakombola kubha nkujiganywa jwangu.and anyone who does not take up his cross and follow Me is not worthy of Me.

39Mundu apinga kulama gwangali ngulupalila nne, akakola gumi gwa pitipiti, ikabheje shakunde bhulagwa kwa ligongo lya ngulupalila nne, shakole gumi gwa pitipiti.Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.

40“Akumposhelanga mmanganya, anamboshela nne, na amboshela nne, anakwaposhela bhandumile bhala.He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives the One who sent Me.

41Akumposhela nkulondola jwa a Nnungu kwa ligongo lyabha nkulondola jwa a Nnungu, shaposhele upo ilandana na ika nkulondola jwa a Nnungu. Akumposhela akwete aki kwa ligongo lyabha akwete aki, shaposhele upo ilandana na ika akwete aki.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.

42Na mundu jojowe shampe jumo jwa munkumbi gwa bhene bhashoko bhashokobha, kapela shikombe sha mashi gaima, pabha bhaajiganywa bhangu, kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, jwakwapi shalepele poshela upo yakwe.”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.”
