Matthew 10 (ZAJ)

1Yesu kawakema wanahina zake longo dimwe na wabili na kuwagwelela udaho wa kuwinga vinyamkela na kuhonya kila utamu na unyondenyonde.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.

2Gano gago matwaga ga watumigwa wa Kilisto longo dimwe na wabili, wa mwanduso Simoni, yakalile yokemigwa Petulo, na ndugu yake Endelea, Yakobo na ndugu yake Yohana wanage Zebedayo,These are the names of the twelve apostles: first Simon, called Peter, and his brother Andrew; James son of Zebedee, and his brother John;

3Filipo na Batolomayo, Tomaso na Matayo muwila kodi, Yakobo mwanage Alufayo, Tadayo,Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;

4Simoni, yakalile yokemigwa Mgombeleza Isi ya Islaeli, na Yuda Isikalioti, yamuhonzile Yesu.Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus.

5Yesu kawalagiza wano longo dimwe na wabili, kawalongela, “Sambimchole muisi ya Wamhazi ama kwingila mkiwambo cha Wasamalia,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 gendeni ha ng'hondolo wapotele, awo wali wanhu wa Islaeli.Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel.

7Ako kumchola, peteni mulonga, ‘Undewa wa Kuulanga ukwenhuka!’As you go, preach this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven is near.’

8Honyeni watamu, zuseni wadanganhike, wahonyeni watamu wa dikulu, wingeni vinyamkela. Mgweleligwa bule, laveni bule.Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give.

9Sambimsole hela yoyose mmikwiji yenu,Do not take along any gold or silver or copper in your belts.

10sambimsole mkoba wa mwanza, ama koti da ikabili, ama ng'hwabasa, ama fimbo. Kwavija msang'hana kolondigwa yagweleligwe kitumetume chake.Take no bag for the road, or second tunic, or sandals, or staff; for the worker is worthy of his provisions.

11“Vondamwingile mdiwambo ama mkiwambo, zahileni munhu yowatogola, giladi mkale hamwake mbaka vondamsegele.Whatever town or village you enter, find out who is worthy there and stay at his house until you move on.

12Vondamwingile muna ing'anda ija walamseni wanhu wa ng'anda ija.As you enter the home, greet its occupants.

13Na kamba wanhu wa ng'anda hiyo wahawabokela, walekeleni tindiwalo jenu, ila kamba hawawabokela, tindiwalo jenu diwabwelele mweye.If the home is worthy, let your peace rest on it, but if it is not, let your peace return to you.

14Ihawa munhu yoyose hawabokela mweye ama kuzitegeleza mbuli zenu, muhalawa muna ing'anda hiyo ama mkiwambo hicho, kung'unheni timbwisi dinanahile mmagulu genu, kamba usindila ulagusa kamba hewo wenyego waulema Usenga wa Mulungu.And if anyone will not welcome you or heed your words, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that home or town.

15Nowalongela ikweli, yodahika wanhu wa viwambo va Sodoma na Gomola koneligwa bazi mdizua da nhaguso kubanza wanhu wa kiwambo hicho!Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town.

16“Tegelezeni! Nie nowatuma kamba ng'hondolo mdidale da mbwizi, muwe na nzewele kamba nyoka na muwe na moyo uholile kamba hua.Behold, I am sending you out like sheep among wolves; therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.

17Iteganyeni na wanhu, kwavija wowagala mweye kukitala, na wowalanha mbalati muna zing'anda zao za nhambiko.But beware of men, for they will hand you over to their councils and flog you in their synagogues.

18Mogaligwa ha wakulu wa isi na wandewa sama yangu nie, giladi munilavile usindila kumwao na ha Wamhazi.On My account you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles.

19Vondamgaligwe mkitala, sambimgelegeze kamba mulonge choni ama mulonge vilihi, kwavija kipigiti kicho mogweleligwa mbuli ya kulonga.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.

20Kwavija sio mweye wondamulonge, ila Loho wa Tata wenu iyo yondayalonge kubitila mweye.For it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.

21“Ndugu komuhonza ndugu yake giladi yakomigwe, na tata komuhonza mwanage, na wana wowahonza watata zao na wamama zao, na kuwatenda wakomigwe.Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will rise against their parents and have them put to death.

22Mokwihilwa na wanhu wose sama ya twaga jangu. Ila yondayazaganye mbaka hakimambukizo, iyo yondayakomboligwa.You will be hated by everyone because of My name, but the one who perseveres to the end will be saved.

23Wahawagaza mkiwambo kimwe, kimbilileni mkiwambo kiyagwe. Nowalongela ikweli, nie, Mwana wa Munhu, nokwiza kipigiti hamnamambukiza kubita m'viwambo vose va Islaeli.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“Mwanahina ham'banza mkulufunzi wake, na nyakadala ham'banza mndewa wake.A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master.

25Yotosha mwanahina kuwa kamba mkulufunzi wake, na nyakadala kuwa kamba mndewa wake. Ihawa mkulu wa ng'anda kokemigwa Belizebuli, haibanza ng'hani wanhu wa ng'anda yake kukemigwa matwaga gehile ng'hani!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“Avo sambimuwadumbe wanhu wano, kwavija haduhu kinhu kigubikigwe chondakileke kugubuligwa, ama kifisigwe chondakileke kutangigwa.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.

27Kiniwalongela mdiziza, kipeteni hamulangaza, na kimuhulika kinyong'onywa, kipeteni mwa wanhu wose.What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the housetops.

28Sambimuwadumbe waja wose wokoma lukuli, ila hawadaha kukoma loho, mdumbeni Mulungu yodaha kubananga vose lukuli na loho na kuvasa kuzimu.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.

29Vitongwa vibili haviuzigwa na hela ndodo? Ila hata kitongwa kimwe hakilagala hasi kamba Tata wenu halondile.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.

30Na hata mvili zose zili mmapala genu zipetwa.And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

31Avo sambimdumbe, mweye mnogeligwa ng'hani na Mulungu kubanza vitongwa bwando!So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

32“Munhu yoyose yonitogola haulongozi wa wanhu, vivija na nie nomtogola haulongozi wa Tataangu yali kuulanga.Therefore everyone who confesses Me before men, I will also confess him before My Father in heaven.

33Ila munhu yoyose yonilema haulongozi wa wanhu, vivija na nie nomulema haulongozi wa Tataangu yali kuulanga.But whoever denies Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father in heaven.

34“Sambimgelegeze kamba niza kugala tindiwalo muisi. Bule, sizile kugala tindiwalo, ila zele.Do not assume that I have come to bring peace to the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.

35Kwavija niza kugala uhasama ha munhu na tataake, mndele na mamaake, mkemwana na mama mkwe yake,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.

36na wadumuka wa munhu iwo waja wali mng'anda yake.A man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’

37“Munhu yoyose yomnogela tataake ama mamaake kubanza nie, hadaha kuwa mwanahina wangu, vivija yomnogela mmhale wake ama mndele wake kubanza nie, hadaha kuwa mwanahina wangu.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;

38Na munhu yoleka kusola msalaba wake na kunikoleleza, hadaha kuwa mwanahina wangu.and anyone who does not take up his cross and follow Me is not worthy of Me.

39Munhu yogeza kuukombola ugima wake kowagiza, ila munhu yowagiza ugima wake sama yangu koukombola.Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.

40“Munhu yowabokela mweye konibokela nie, na munhu yonibokela nie kom'bokela ija yanhumile nie.He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives the One who sent Me.

41Munhu yoyose yom'bokela muhokozi kwavija viyali muhokozi, kobokela nhunza kamba iija iyobokela muhokozi. Na munhu yoyose yom'bokela munhu yanogile kwavija viyali munhu yanogile, kobokela nhunza kamba iija iyobokela munhu yanogile.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.

42Nowalongela ikweli, munhu yoyose yolava hata kikasi cha mazi ga uzizimi ha munhu imwe wa wano wadodo kwavija viyali mwanahina wangu, haleka bule kubokela nhunza yake.”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.”
