Biblia Takatifu (Swahili): New Testament portions
1And rising up from thence, he cometh into the coasts of Judea beyond the Jordan: and the multitudes flock to him again. And as he was accustomed, he taught them again.
1Yesu alitoka hapo akaenda mkoani Yudea na hata ng'ambo ya mto Yordani. Umati wa watu ukamwendea tena, naye akawafundisha tena kama ilivyokuwa desturi yake.
2And the Pharisees coming to him asked him: Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife? tempting him.
2Basi, Mafarisayo wakamwendea, na kwa kumjaribu wakamwuliza, “Je, ni halali mtu kumpa talaka mkewe?”
3But he answering, saith to them: What did Moses command you?
3Yesu akawajibu, “Mose aliwapa maagizo gani?”
4Who said: Moses permitted to write a bill of divorce, and to put her away.
4Nao wakasema, “Mose aliagiza mume kumpatia mkewe hati ya talaka na kumwacha.”
5To whom Jesus answering, said: Because of the hardness of your heart he wrote you that precept.
5Yesu akawaambia, “Mose aliwaandikia amri hiyo kwa sababu ya ugumu wa mioyo yenu.
6But from the beginning of the creation, God made them male and female.
6Lakini tangu kuumbwa ulimwengu, Mungu aliumba mwanamume na mwanamke.
7For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother; and shall cleave to his wife.
7Hivyo mwanamume atawaacha baba yake na mama yake, ataungana na mkewe,
8And they two shall be in one flesh. Therefore now they are not two, but one flesh.
8nao wawili watakuwa mwili mmoja. Kwa hiyo, wao si wawili tena bali mwili mmoja.
9What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
9Basi, alichounganisha Mungu, binadamu asitenganishe.”
10And in the house again his disciples asked him concerning the same thing.
10Walipoingia tena ndani ya nyumba, wanafunzi wake walimwuliza juu ya jambo hilo.
11And he saith to them: Whosoever shall put away his wife and marry another, committeth adultery against her.
11Naye akawaambia, “Anayemwacha mkewe na kuoa mwingine, anazini dhidi ya mkewe.
12And if the wife shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.
12Na mwanamke anayemwacha mumewe na kuolewa na mwingine anazini.”
13And they brought to him young children, that he might touch them. And the disciples rebuked them that brought them.
13Watu walimletea Yesu watoto wadogo ili awaguse, lakini wanafunzi wakawakemea.
14Whom when Jesus saw, he was much displeased, and saith to them: Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not; for of such is the kingdom of God.
14Yesu alipoona hivyo, alikasirika akawaambia, “Waacheni hao watoto waje kwangu, wala msiwazuie, kwa maana Ufalme wa Mungu ni kwa ajili ya watu walio kama watoto hawa.
15Amen I say to you, whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, shall not enter into it.
15Nawaambieni kweli, mtu yeyote asiyeupokea Ufalme wa Mungu kama mtoto mdogo hataingia katika Ufalme huo.”
16And embracing them, and laying his hands upon them, he blessed them.
16Kisha akawapokea watoto hao, akawawekea mikono, akawabariki.
17And when he was gone forth into the way, a certain man running up and kneeling before him, asked him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may receive life everlasting?
17Yesu alipoanza tena safari yake, mtu mmoja alimjia mbio, akapiga magoti mbele yake, akamwuliza, “Mwalimu mwema, nifanyeje ili niupate uzima wa milele?”
18And Jesus said to him, Why callest thou me good? None is good but one, that is God.
18Yesu akamjibu, “Mbona unaniita mwema? Hakuna aliye mwema ila Mungu peke yake.
19Thou knowest the commandments: Do not commit adultery, do not kill, do not steal, bear not false witness, do no fraud, honour thy father and mother.
19Unazijua amri: Usizini; Usiue; Usiibe; Usitoe ushahidi wa uongo; Usidanganye; Waheshimu baba na mama yako.”
20But he answering, said to him: Master, all these things I have observed from my youth.
20Naye akamjibu, “Mwalimu, hayo yote nimeyazingatia tangu ujana wangu.”
21And Jesus looking on him, loved him, and said to him: One thing is wanting unto thee: go, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.
21Yesu akamtazama, akampenda, akamwambia, “Umepungukiwa na kitu kimoja: nenda ukauze vitu ulivyo navyo, uwape maskini, nawe utakuwa na hazina mbinguni; kisha njoo unifuate.”
22Who being struck sad at that saying, went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions.
22Aliposikia hayo, alisikitika, akaenda zake akiwa na huzuni, kwa maana alikuwa na mali nyingi.
23And Jesus looking round about, saith to his disciples: How hardly shall they that have riches, enter into the kingdom of God!
23Yesu akatazama pande zote, akawaambia wanafunzi wake, “Jinsi gani itakavyokuwa vigumu kwa matajiri kuingia katika Ufalme wa Mungu!”
24And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus again answering, saith to them: Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches, to enter into the kingdom of God?
24Wanafunzi walishangazwa na maneno yake. Yesu akawaambia tena, “Watoto wangu, ni vigumu sana kuingia katika Ufalme wa Mungu!
25It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
25Ni rahisi zaidi ngamia kupenya katika tundu la sindano, kuliko tajiri kuingia katika Ufalme wa Mungu.”
26Who wondered the more, saying among themselves: Who then can be saved?
26Wanafunzi wake wakashangaa sana wakaulizana, “Ni nani basi, atakayeweza kuokoka?”
27And Jesus looking on them, saith: With men it is impossible; but not with God: for all things are possible with God.
27Yesu akawatazama, akawaambia, “Kwa binadamu haiwezekani, lakini kwa Mungu si hivyo, maana kwa Mungu mambo yote huwezekana.”
28And Peter began to say unto him: Behold, we have left all things, and have followed thee.
28Petro akamwambia, “Na sisi je? Tumeacha yote, tukakufuata!”
29Jesus answering, said: Amen I say to you, there is no man who hath left house or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or children, or lands, for my sake and for the gospel,
29Yesu akasema, “Kweli nawaambieni, kila mtu aliyeacha nyumba, au ndugu, au dada, au mama, au baba, au watoto au mashamba kwa ajili yangu na kwa ajili ya Habari Njema,
30Who shall not receive an hundred times as much, now in this time; houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions: and in the world to come life everlasting.
30atapokea mara mia zaidi wakati huu wa sasa nyumba, ndugu, dada, mama, watoto na mashamba pamoja na mateso; na katika wakati ujao atapokea uzima wa milele.
31But many that are first, shall be last: and the last, first.
31Lakini wengi walio wa kwanza watakuwa wa mwisho, na walio wa mwisho watakuwa wa kwanza.”
32And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem: and Jesus went before them, and they were astonished; and following were afraid. And taking again the twelve, he began to tell them the things that should befall him.
32Basi, walikuwa njiani kwenda Yerusalemu, na Yesu alikuwa anawatangulia. Wanafunzi wake walijawa na hofu, na watu waliofuata waliogopa. Yesu akawachukua tena kando wale kumi na wawili, akaanza kuwaambia yale yatakayompata:
33Saying: Behold we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of man shall be betrayed to the chief priests, and to the scribes and ancients, and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the Gentiles.
33“Sikilizeni! Tunakwenda Yerusalemu, na huko Mwana wa Mtu atakabidhiwa kwa makuhani wakuu na walimu wa Sheria, nao watamhukumu auawe na kumkabidhi kwa watu wa mataifa.
34And they shall mock him, and spit on him, and scourge him, and kill him: and the third day he shall rise again.
34Nao watamdhihaki; watamtemea mate, watampiga mijeledi na kumwua. Na baada ya siku tatu atafufuka.”
35And James and John the sons of Zebedee, come to him, saying: Master, we desire that whatsoever we shall ask, thou wouldst do it for us:
35Yakobo na Yohane, wana wa Zebedayo, walimwendea Yesu wakamwambia, “Mwalimu, tunataka utufanyie kitu tutakachokuomba.”
36But he said to them: What would you that I should do for you?
36Yesu akawauliza, “Mnataka niwafanyie nini?”
37And they said: Grant to us, that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory.
37Wakamjibu, “Uturuhusu tuketi mmoja upande wako wa kulia na mwingine upande wako wa kushoto katika utukufu wa Ufalme wako.”
38And Jesus said to them: You know not what you ask. Can you drink of the chalice that I drink of: or be baptized with the baptism wherewith I am baptized?
38Yesu akawaambia, “Hamjui mnachoomba! Je, mnaweza kunywa kikombe nitakachokunywa, au kubatizwa kama nitakavyobatizwa?”
39But they said to him: We can. And Jesus saith to them: You shall indeed drink of the chalice that I drink of: and with the baptism wherewith I am baptized, you shall be baptized.
39Wakamjibu, “Tunaweza.” Yesu akawaambia, “Kikombe nitakachokunywa mtakinywa kweli, na mtabatizwa kama nitakavyobatizwa.
40But to sit on my right hand, or on my left, is not mine to give to you, but to them for whom it is prepared.
40Lakini ni nani atakayeketi kulia au kushoto kwangu si wajibu wangu kupanga, bali nafasi hizo watapewa wale waliotayarishiwa.”
41And the ten hearing it, began to be much displeased at James and John.
41Wale wanafunzi wengine kumi waliposikia hayo, walianza kuchukizwa na Yakobo na Yohane.
42But Jesus calling them, saith to them: You know that they who seem to rule over the Gentiles, lord it over them: and their princes have power over them.
42Yesu akawaita, akawaambia, “Mnajua kwamba wale wanaofikiriwa kuwa watawala wa mataifa huwatawala watu wao kwa mabavu, na wakuu hao huwamiliki watu wao.
43But it is not so among you: but whosoever will be greater, shall be your minister.
43Lakini kwenu isiwe hivyo, ila anayetaka kuwa mkuu kati yenu, sharti awe mtumishi wenu.
44And whosoever will be first among you, shall be the servant of all.
44Anayetaka kuwa wa kwanza, sharti awe mtumishi wa wote.
45For the Son of man also is not come to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a redemption for many.
45Maana Mwana wa Mtu hakuja kutumikiwa, ila alikuja kutumikia, na kutoa maisha yake kuwa fidia ya watu wengi.”
46And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho, with his disciples, and a very great multitude, Bartimeus the blind man, the son of Timeus, sat by the way side begging.
46Basi, wakafika Yeriko, naye Yesu alipokuwa anatoka katika mji huo akiwa na wanafunzi wake pamoja na umati mkubwa wa watu, kipofu mwombaji aitwaye Bartimayo mwana wa Timayo alikuwa ameketi kando ya barabara.
47Who when he had heard, that it was Jesus of Nazareth, began to cry out, and to say: Jesus son of David, have mercy on me.
47Aliposikia kwamba ni Yesu wa Nazareti aliyekuwa anapita mahali hapo, alianza kupaaza sauti, “Yesu, Mwana wa Daudi, nihurumie!”
48And many rebuked him, that he might hold his peace; but he cried a great deal the more: Son of David, have mercy on me.
48Watu wengi walimkemea ili anyamaze, lakini yeye akazidi kupaaza sauti, “Mwana wa Daudi, nihurumie!”
49And Jesus, standing still, commanded him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying to him: Be of better comfort: arise, he calleth thee.
49Yesu alisimama, akasema, “Mwiteni.” Basi, wakamwita huyo kipofu, wakamwambia, “Jipe moyo! Simama, anakuita.”
50Who casting off his garment leaped up, and came to him.
50Naye akatupilia mbali vazi lake, akaruka juu, akamwendea Yesu.
51And Jesus answering, said to him: What wilt thou that I should do to thee? And the blind man said to him: Rabboni, that I may see.
51Yesu akamwuliza, “Unataka nikufanyie nini?” Huyo kipofu akamwambia, “Mwalimu, naomba nipate kuona.”
52And Jesus saith to him: Go thy way, thy faith hath made thee whole. And immediately he saw, and followed him in the way.
52Yesu akamwambia, “Nenda, imani yako imekuponya.” Mara huyo kipofu akaweza kuona, akamfuata Yesu njiani.
