Mark 12 (YOM) · Opened

1Buna wutona kuba tubila mu zinongo : —Mutu wumosi wukuna ndima yi vinu ayi wutungila yawu luphangu. Wukaba dibulu dimosi mu kamuninanga makundi ma vinu ayi wutunga nzo yimosi yi banga mu diambu di sunganga ndimꞌandi. Bosi mutu beni wuyekula ndima beni mu mioko mi minkuni muingi miyifutilanga. Bosi wuyenda mu nzietolo.Then Jesus began to speak to them in parables: “A man planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a wine vat, and built a watchtower. Then he rented it out to some tenants and went away on a journey.

2Thangu yi mvedolongo mimbutu bu yifuana, buna wutuma kisadi kiandi kimosi kenda landi ndambu makundi mandi ma vinu kuidi bisadi bi ndima.At harvest time, he sent a servant to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard.

3Vayi bisadi bi ndima bikanga mutu beni ayi bintuta khuba bosi bimvutula mioko na mioko.But they seized the servant, beat him, and sent him away empty-handed.

4Pfumu yi ndima wubuela tuma kisadi kinkaka. Banlueka ku ntu bosi bamfinga.Then he sent them another servant, and they struck him over the head and treated him shamefully.

5Pfumu yi ndima wubuela tuma kisadi kintatu, bamvonda. Bosi wubuela tuma bisadi binkaka biwombo, binkaka bitutu khuba ayi binkaka bivondo.He sent still another, and this one they killed. He sent many others; some they beat and others they killed.

6Pfumu yi ndima wusiala ayi mutu wumosi. Mutu beni muanꞌandi wowoketi luta zola. Ku nzimunina niandi wuba wutsuka mu fidisu bu katuba : “Bela kinzika Muanꞌama”.Finally, having one beloved son, he sent him to them. ‘They will respect my son,’ he said.

7Vayi minkuni mi ndima mikambasana bawu na bawu : “Taleno mutu wowo wela vinginina kiuka, yizanu tumvonda muingi kiuka kikituka kieto.”But the tenants said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’

8Buna mimbuila, mimvonda ayi minloza ku nganda ndima vinu.So they seized the son, killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard.

9Buna Pfumu ndima mbi kela vanga e ? Niandi veka wela kuiza, wela vonda minkuni miomi ayi wela defisa ndima beni kuidi minkuni minkaka.What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and kill those tenants and give the vineyard to others.

10Lusia tanga ko masonuku mama : Ditadi diodi diloza mintungi, dikituka ditadi di mfunu di fuma ki nzoHave you never read this Scripture: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.

11Pfumu niandi wuvanga buawu ayi didi diambu ditsiminanga mu meso meto !This is from the Lord, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?”

12Buna batomba diluaku di kangisila Yesu. Bila bazaba kuawu ti bawu Yesu kavekula vayi boma baba mona nkangu wu batu. Diawu basia kumbikila ayi bayenda kuawu.At this, the leaders sought to arrest Jesus, for they knew that He had spoken this parable against them. But fearing the crowd, they left Him and went away.

13Batuma ndambu yi Bafalisi ayi batu ba dikabu di Elode biza kuidi Yesu mu diambu di tomba diluaku di kumbuidila mu mambu momo kalenda tuba niandi veka.Later, they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians to catch Jesus in His words.

14Bayiza kunyuvula : —A Nlongi, tuzebi ti ngeyo kiedika, wumonanga mutu boma ko bila wutalanga bizizi bi batu ko ; weti longa nzila yi Nzambi mu kiedika. Diawu wutukambi, minsua midi mu futa phaku kuidi Sezali voti nana e ? Tufuta voti tubika futa e ?“Teacher,” they said, “we know that You are honest and seek favor from no one. Indeed, You are impartial and teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar or not? Should we pay them or not?”

15Vayi Yesu wuzaba mayuya mawu ayi wuba kamba : —Bila mbi lunkumfiedila e ? Luthuadila denali kimosi muingi ndikitala.But Jesus saw through their hypocrisy and said, “Why are you testing Me? Bring Me a denarius to inspect.”

16Bannantina kiawu ayi wuba yuvula : —A zizi kinani kiaki ayi bisono biabi bi nani e ? Bamvutudila : —Bi Sezali !So they brought it, and He asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?” “Caesar’s,” they answered.

17Buna Yesu wuba kamba : —Diawu luvana bi Sezali kuidi Sezali ; bi Nzambi kuidi Nzambi. Babo bansimina ngolo.Then Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.” And they marveled at Him.

18Bosi Basaduki, batu bobo beti tuba ti bafua balendi fuluka ko, bayiza kuidi Yesu ayi banyuvula :Then the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Jesus and questioned Him:

19—Nlongi, Moyize wutusonikina ti Bakala dikuela bu kafuidi, enati kasia buta bana ko, buna khombꞌandi kafueti vinginina nketo wowo kabikidi muingi kabuta bana mu diambu di khombꞌandi wufua.“Teacher, 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.

20Vaba tsambuadi di bakhomba zi babakala, Muana wutheti wukuela nketo, wufua vayi kasia buta bana ko.Now there were seven brothers. The first one married and died, leaving no children.

21Wumuadi wuvinginina nketo beni. Niandi mamvandi wufua, kasia butabana ko. Buawu bobo buvangimina kuidi khomba yintatu,Then the second one married the widow, but he also died and left no children. And the third did likewise.

22nate tsambuadi yoso bakuela nketo beni, vayi basia buta kadi muanako. Kunzimunina, nketo beni mamvandi wufua.In this way, none of the seven left any children. And last of all, the woman died.

23Buna mu lumbu kimfulukulu, nketo beni wela ba wunani e ? Bila tsambuadi yoso yinkuela.In the resurrection, then, whose wife will she be? For all seven were married to her.”

24Yesu wuba vutudila : —Lulembo kukivuni. Bila lusi zaba masonoko ko ayi lusi zaba ko lulendo lu Nzambi.Jesus said to them, “Aren’t you mistaken, because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God?

25Bila batu bafua bu bela fuluka, batu balendi buela kuelana ko ayi kuedisa ko, vayi bela ba banga zimbasi mu Diyilu.When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage. Instead, they will be like the angels in heaven.

26Vayi mu diambu di mfulukulu yi bafua, lutengi ko mu buku yi Moyize mu diambu di nti wu zitsendi phila Nzambi kanyolukila ti : Minu ndidi Nzambi yi Abalahami ; Nzambi yi Isaki ayi Nzambi yi Yakobi.But concerning the dead rising, have you not read about the burning bush in the Book of Moses, how God told him, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’?

27Nzambi kasi Nzambi yi batu bafua ko, vayi Nzambi yi batu badi moyo. Diawu mu nzimbala yinneni luidi !He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are badly mistaken!”

28Nlongi wumosi wu Mina wuba wa mu thangu baba findasana ziphaka. Bu kamona ti Yesu wuvutudila bumboti Basaduki, wuyiza fikama va kaba, bosi wunyuvula : —Mu Mina mioso, Muina mbi wulutidi mfunu e ?Now one of the scribes had come up and heard their debate. Noticing how well Jesus had answered them, he asked Him, “Which commandment is the most important of all?”

29Yesu wumvutudila : —Muina wulutidi mfunu wawu wawu : Wa Iseli, Pfumu niandi Nzambi eto, niandi kaka Nzambi ;Jesus replied, “This is the most important: ‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One.

30diawu zola Pfumu Nzambi aku mu ntimꞌaku wumvimba, mu muelꞌakuwumvimba, mu mayindu maku moso ayi mu zingolo ziaku zioso.Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’

31Tala Muina wummuadi wudedikini banga wutheti : zola ndiakubanga bu weti kukizodila ngeyo veka. Kuisi ko Muina wunkaka wuviokidi Mina miami.The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ No other commandment is greater than these.”

32Nlongi beni wu Mina wumvutudila : —Nlongi, mambu kembi madi makiedika bila Pfumu Nzambi widi wumosi kaka, kuisi ko wunkaka ;“Right, Teacher,” the scribe replied. “You have stated correctly that God is One and there is no other but Him,

33zola Nzambi mu ntimꞌaku wumvimba, zola Nzambi mu diela diaku dioso ayi mu zingolo ziaku zioso ayi zola nkundi aku banga bu wukukizodilanga, diviokidi yokila Nzambi dikaba ayi kumvana mintindu mioso mi makaba ma mfunu.and to love Him with all your heart and with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself. This is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”

34Yesu wumona ti mu diela kavutudila, diawu kankambila : —Wisi thama ko ayi kipfumu ki Nzambi ! Momo bu mavioka, kadi mutu kasia buela kunyuvula biuvu ko.When Jesus saw that the man had answered wisely, He said, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.” And no one dared to question Him any further.

35Yesu bu kalonga muna luphangu lu Nzo Nzambi, wuba yuvula : —A buevi minlongi mi Mina mintubilanga ti Klisto Muana Davidi e ?While Jesus was teaching in the temple courts, He asked, “How can the scribes say that the Christ is the Son of David?

36Bila niandi veka Davidi bu katuadusu kuidi pheve Yinlongo, wutuba : Pfumu wukamba kuidi Pfumuꞌama vuanda va koko kuama ku lubakala. Nate mbeni tula bambeni ziaku ku tsi bitambi biaku.Speaking by the Holy Spirit, David himself declared: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand until I put Your enemies under Your feet.”’

37Diawu, enati niandi veka Davidi wuntedila Klisto “Pfumu”, buna buevi kafueti buela bela muanꞌandi e ? Nkangu wu batu wuwila Yesu mu khini.David himself calls Him ‘Lord.’ So how can He be David’s son?” And the large crowd listened to Him with delight.

38Wutuba mu malongi mandi : —Lulubukila minlongi mi Mina. Bila bawu khini beti monamu diatilanga mu mazuela manda ayi beti zola baba vaninanga mbotimu bibuangu bidi batu bawombo.In His teaching Jesus also said, “Watch out for the scribes. They like to walk around in long robes, to receive greetings in the marketplaces,

39Bayuku vuandilanga mu bibuangu bidi ku ntuala muna zinzozi lukutukunu, ayi mu bibuangu bi nzitusu mu minyengo.and to have the chief seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets.

40Vayi beti yiba zinzo zi mafuola ayi beti sambila zitsambulu zinda muingi bamonika kuidi batu. Bela tambula thumbudulu yilutidi ngolo.They defraud widows of their houses, and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will receive greater condemnation.”

41Bosi Yesu wuyenda vuanda va ndambu ; va talana ayi pani ki makaba kiba muna nzo Nzambi. Ayi wuba talanga phila yoyi batu baba tudilanga zimbongo mu pani. Zimvuama ziwombo zitula zimbongo ziwombo.As Jesus was sitting opposite the treasury, He watched the crowd putting money into it. And many rich people put in large amounts.

42Ku nzimunina kuyiza nsukami wumosi wu nketo, wuba difuola, wuyiza mamvandi mu vana makaba, wutula kaka bivangi biodi bifioti-fioti.Then one poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which amounted to a small fraction of a denarius.

43Buna Yesu wutela minlonguki miandi ayi wuba kamba : —Bukiedika ndikulukamba, nsukami wawu wu nketo, difuola diadi, niandi lutidi vana zimbongo mu pani viokila batu bosoJesus called His disciples to Him and said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more than all the others into the treasury.

44bila batu boso baveni zimbongo, ziosi zibakambulu vua mfunuvayi niandi mu sukama kuandi veni zizioso zibedi yandi ziozi, kafueti zingila.For they all contributed out of their surplus, but she out of her poverty has put in all she had to live on.”
