Mwa yilumbu, Djesu amalonzaange batu, akebatsingulaange musamu wuboti va dulombili du ndaghu Nzambi. Bivunde bi bavaghulitsi ba paghu, milonzi mi mighaghe na bivunde bi baSwife bimosi bakebarasune vane.
BSB
BSB:
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
PUU
Bivunde byeni bakemuwivule rye: «Awuni widilile musughe mu udughusu mambu mémane? Tutsinguli, anyi amawuveghe musughe ewune?»
BSB
BSB:
“Tell us,” they said, “by what authority are You doing these things, and who gave You this authority?”
3
PUU
Djesu akebawaghule rye: «Menu wandi nyuduwivule yivu:
BSB
BSB:
“I will also ask you a question,”
Jesus replied.
“Tell Me:
4
PUU
Anyi amasindighe San nomuveghe musughe wu ubatise batu? Amasindughu na Nzambi vo na batu?»
BSB
BSB:
John’s baptism—was it from heaven, or from men?”
5
PUU
Batu beni, bakevosange va ghari djobeni rye: «Yike twisingi yiri Nzambi amamurume, djandi otuwivule rye: “Ka mumba yi dusamasingile ame San amavose?”
BSB
BSB:
They deliberated among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will ask, ‘Why did you not believe him?’
6
PUU
Yike twimuwaghuli yiri musughe eni ombu batu wiruyili, mukute wotsu wututinde mamani mu utuboke, mumbari batu beni bédjabi yiri San amabe mubiyitsi.»
BSB
BSB:
But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are convinced that John was a prophet.”
7
PUU
Batu beni, bakewaghule Djesu rye: «Djetu, tughedjabi anyi amamuveghe musughe mu ubatise batu.»
BSB
BSB:
So they answered that they did not know where it was from.
8
PUU
Na Djesu akebawaghule rye: «Menu wandi, ngodutsingule mu musughe nyi nyimavayili.»
BSB
BSB:
And Jesus replied,
“Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
9
PUU
Djesu anomane uvose, akemwébukile mukute nongu rye: «Dibaale amavare nungi dji miri mi vinye, akedjisile va makake ma bisyele mu udjikelise, na amawende mu mulingu yitsingu.
BSB
BSB:
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
PUU
Temu dighumbe djinotole, fumu nungi akesindighe musatsi andi wumosi ombu bisyele abimasyale na nungi, Bakemuveghe dyandi dikabu di milunde mi vinye. Tumbe bisyele byeni bakedimbe musatsi eni kube na bakemughabuse myowu pavele.
BSB
BSB:
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
PUU
Fumu nungi, akesindighe awu mubedji, bisyele byeni bakedimbe wune wandi kube, bakemusyenge na bakemughabuse myowu na myowu.
BSB
BSB:
So he sent another servant, but they beat him and treated him shamefully, sending him away empty-handed.
12
PUU
Akebwésindighe awu mutatu, awune wandi, bakemutsungule na bakemusyanze.
BSB
BSB:
Then he sent a third, but they wounded him and threw him out.
13
PUU
Fumu nungi akekewivule: “Tsyeni ngavale? Nyusindighe mwane ami murime, tangudji bomughobise.”
BSB
BSB:
‘What shall I do?’ asked the owner of the vineyard. ‘I will send my beloved son. Perhaps they will respect him.’
14
PUU
Tumbe ave bisyele byeni bamalabile mwane andi, baketsingusunaange rye: “Lanu mungo disyale! Tumubokyanu, tuke byalile nungi.”
BSB
BSB:
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
PUU
Bisyele, bakemughange, bakemupalise o ghari nungi na bakemuboke.» Djesu akebawivule rye: «Mu dyoni, yike yi fumu nungi obavaghe?
BSB
BSB:
So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
16
PUU
Djandi, orughe na oboke bisyele byeni bine, na owakise nungi andi va makake ma bisyele bisusu.» Batu banowulu nane, bakemuwake rye: «Tsatsabi, dighorungule ube nane!»
BSB
BSB:
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
PUU
Djesu anobaghengile, akebawivule rye: «Divindughulu di Bisonu bi Nzambi, tsyeni diwendili? Labatyanu: “Dimani adimabwaghu na barungitsi ba mandaghu, yike dine diwarisi nziku yibughe?”
BSB
BSB:
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
PUU
Wotsu oduku dibaku mu dimani dyeni, oberughe na otsungughe. Djandi awu dimani dyeni dyubonduyile, onyighemughe.»
BSB
BSB:
Everyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom it falls will be crushed.”
19
PUU
Milonzi mi mighaghe na bivunde bi bavaghulitsi ba paghu bakerombange nane borungulile wughange Djesu mumbari bamatasaange yiri djowu, Djesu amatsokiyilaange mu nongu eni. Tumbe basamamughaange mumbari bamadumange mughungi.
BSB
BSB:
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
PUU
Batu bamabe numi-numi na Djesu. Bakemutindile batu abamafuraange ube basatsi ba Nzambi. Batu beni bamarombaange ubaghule batonu mu malongi ma Djesu mu umughange, na umuwakise ombu yidjeti yi baRome mu umusosise.
BSB
BSB:
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
PUU
Batu beni abamatindu, bakemuwivule yivu rye: «Mulonzi, twidjabi yiri wivosi nolonze na dusungughu; wughévayi dupasu va ghari batu, tumbe wilonzi na ngenze nzile Nzambi.
BSB
BSB:
“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
PUU
Tutsinguli nine vo nesi, diwelimine mu ufute lepu ombu Kaghe Sesare?»
BSB
BSB:
Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?”
23
PUU
Tumbe Djesu anobaghule dyele adi mbé bamusoghe, akebawaghule rye:
BSB
BSB:
But Jesus saw through their duplicity and said to them,
24
PUU
«Mbeyilyanu fure. Yinzi yi nyi? Na dine di nyi bisonughu mu fure eni?» Bakemuwaghule rye: «Bi Kaghe Sesare.»
BSB
BSB:
“Show Me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?”
“Caesar’s,” they answered.
25
PUU
Djesu amabatsingule rye: «Ghabusilanu Kaghe Sesare abivu abyandi, mbana abi Nzambi, bi Nzambi.»
BSB
BSB:
So Jesus told them,
“Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.”
26
PUU
Djowu bamakambulu mu posulu tsyandi na basamadile tonu mu umuveghe mbele. Bakevole «swii».
BSB
BSB:
And they were unable to trap Him in His words before the people. And amazed at His answer, they fell silent.
27
PUU
Dighuki di baSadisi abamabe na bakemi mu durambughulu du abafu, banobambene na Djesu, bakemuwivulaange rye:
BSB
BSB:
Then some of the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to question Him.
28
PUU
«Mulonzi, Moyise, mu mighaghe mi Nzambi, amatusoniyile rye: “Dibaale adiwele, payi aghaabure, yike efu, ngebi andi obyalile mukwili na bobure va yivinze yi awu amafu.”
BSB
BSB:
“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
PUU
Vamabe yisambwali yi baane ba ngudji ba babaale. Awuteghe akewele na akefu, asamabure.
BSB
BSB:
Now there were seven brothers. The first one married a wife but died childless.
30
PUU
Nduke tsomi
akewele mukwili, akefu djandi wandi asamabure.
BSB
BSB:
Then the second
31
PUU
Awu muryeru akemwébyalile mukwili eni, akefu djandi wandi, asamabure. Mu yisambwali yotsu ayi mabyalile mukwili, yikefu, yi samasile baane.
BSB
BSB:
and the third married the widow, and in the same way all seven died, leaving no children.
32
PUU
O nzitu, mughetu wandi akefu.
BSB
BSB:
And last of all, the woman died.
33
PUU
Yilumbu ayi babaale beni borambuyile o dufu, anyi obe mulumi mughetu eni? Mumbari amabe mughatsi djowu botsu.»
BSB
BSB:
So then, in the resurrection, whose wife will she be? For all seven were married to her.”
34
PUU
Djesu akebawaghule rye: «Mu butambe bwébubu, baghetu na babaale béwelisini,
BSB
BSB:
Jesus answered,
“The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage.
35
PUU
tumbe bamosi abe Nzambi elabi yiri bawelimine mu urambughe o dufu nodile monyu awurughe, djowu baghomwéwele.
BSB
BSB:
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
PUU
Kaboghu, dufu mbé dughobwébabembe, mumbari bobe nane byanze bi Nzambi. Djowu bobe baane ba Nzambi, na djandi obarambuse o dufu nobaveghe monyu.
BSB
BSB:
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
PUU
Moyise amavose kengili yiri Nzambi orambuse abafu. Ave amavosile mu yilombi yi yivale yi mudji Nzambi, amanengile Fumu “Nzambi dji Aberaame, Nzambi dji Yisaake na Nzambi dji Sakobe.”
BSB
BSB:
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
PUU
Agha Nzambi dji bamvumbi, tumbe Nzambi adji djowu abavu monyu, mumbari djowu badji monyu dibandu djandi.»
BSB
BSB:
He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to Him all are alive.”
39
PUU
Dighuki di milonzi mi mighaghe baketsingule Djesu rye: «Mulonzi, wutsivose dingenze.»
BSB
BSB:
Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, You have spoken well!”
40
PUU
Na djowu, basamamwérungule umuwivule bivu bisusu.
BSB
BSB:
And they did not dare to question Him any further.
41
PUU
Djesu akewivule milonzi mi mighaghe rye: «Dibandu yi batu bévosili rye: “Kirisete, adji mwane Davide?”
BSB
BSB:
Then Jesus declared,
“How can it be said that the Christ is the Son of David?
42
PUU
Davide etubuli djabeni mu mughande Nyimbu rye: “Fumu Nzambi etsinguli Fumu ami rye: Tsane va mabaale mami,
BSB
BSB:
For David himself says in the book of Psalms: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand
43
PUU
tena nyukutighe bambeni baghu, otsi makulu maghu.”
BSB
BSB:
until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.”’
44
PUU
Payi Davide enengili Yibyatsi yi Nzambi “Fumu andi”, ka tsyeni omwébile mwane andi?»
BSB
BSB:
Thus David calls Him ‘Lord.’ So how can He be David’s son?”
45
PUU
Mughungi wotsu wunobe limbe mu umuwululu, Djesu aketsingule badukitsi bandi rye:
BSB
BSB:
In the hearing of all the people, Jesus said to His disciples,
46
PUU
«Kebenanu na milonzi mi mighaghe, djowu aberondingi bu uyenelingaange mu bikutu bisakeme, djowu aberondingi usimbungu na dighobe mu mambure ma mighungi, djowu aberondingi utsane mu bitsighe abiteghe mu mandaghu ma tsambu na mbure tsi mimengu amineni,
BSB
BSB:
“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
PUU
djowu bédyongi nodayile bakwili, djowu bévayi tsambu tsisakeme mu ukelase yiri basungeme. Mu tonu adjine, Nzambi obakilisi pwele uvyoghulile bamosi.»
BSB
BSB:
They defraud widows of their houses, and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will receive greater condemnation.”
