Biblia Takatifu (Swahili): New Testament portions
1And as he was going out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him: Master, behold what manner of stones and what buildings are here.
1Yesu alipokuwa anatoka Hekaluni, mmoja wa wanafunzi wake alimwambia, “Mwalimu, tazama jinsi mawe haya na majengo haya yalivyo ya ajabu!”
2And Jesus answering, said to him: Seest thou all these great buildings? There shall not be left a stone upon a stone, that shall not be thrown down.
2Yesu akamwambia, “Je, unayaona majengo haya makubwa? Hakuna hata jiwe moja litakalosalia juu ya lingine; kila kitu kitabomolewa.”
3And as he sat on the mount of Olivet over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him apart:
3Yesu alipokuwa ameketi juu ya mlima wa Mizeituni akielekea Hekalu, Petro, Yakobo, Yohane na Andrea wakamwuliza kwa faragha,
4Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign when all these things shall begin to be fulfilled?
4“Twambie mambo haya yatatukia lini? Ni ishara gani itakayoonyesha kwamba mambo haya karibu yatimizwe?”
5And Jesus answering, began to say to them, Take heed lest any man deceive you.
5Yesu akaanza kuwaambia, “Jihadharini msije mkadanganywa na mtu.
6For many shall come in my name, saying, I am he; and they shall deceive many.
6Maana wengi watakuja wakilitumia jina langu, wakisema, Mimi ndiye! nao watawapotosha watu wengi.
7And when you shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, fear ye not. For such things must needs be, but the end is not yet.
7Mtakaposikia juu ya vita na fununu za vita, msifadhaike. Mambo hayo lazima yatokee, lakini mwisho wenyewe ungali bado.
8For nation shall rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and famines. These things are the beginning of sorrows.
8Taifa moja litapigana na taifa lingine; utawala mmoja utapigana na utawala mwingine; kila mahali kutakuwa na mitetemeko ya ardhi na njaa. Mambo haya ni kama tu maumivu ya kwanza ya kujifungua mtoto.
9But look to yourselves. For they shall deliver you up to councils, and in the synagogues you shall be beaten, and you shall stand before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony unto them.
9“Lakini ninyi jihadharini. Maana watu watawapelekeni mahakamani, na kuwapigeni katika masunagogi. Mtapelekwa mbele ya watawala na wafalme kwa sababu yangu ili mpate kunishuhudia kwao.
10And unto all nations the gospel must first be preached.
10Lakini lazima kwanza Habari Njema ihubiriwe kwa mataifa yote.
11And when they shall lead you and deliver you up, be not thoughtful beforehand what you shall speak; but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye. For it is not you that speak, but the Holy Ghost.
11Nao watakapowatieni nguvuni na kuwapeleka mahakamani, msiwe na wasiwasi juu ya yale mtakayosema; saa ile itakapofika, semeni chochote mtakachopewa, maana si ninyi mtakaosema, bali Roho Mtakatifu.
12And the brother shall betray his brother unto death, and the father his son; and children shall rise up against the parents, and shall work their death.
12Ndugu atamsaliti ndugu yake auawe; baba atamsaliti mwanae; watoto watawashambulia wazazi wao na kuwaua.
13And you shall be hated by all men for my name’s sake. But he that shall endure unto the end, he shall be saved.
13Watu wote watawachukieni ninyi kwa sababu ya jina langu. Lakini atakayevumilia mpaka mwisho ndiye atakayeokolewa.
14And when you shall see the abomination of desolation, standing where it ought not: he that readeth let him understand: then let them that are in Judea, flee unto the mountains:
14“Mtakapoona Chukizo Haribifu limesimama mahali ambapo si pake, (msomaji na atambue maana yake!) Hapo watu walioko Yudea wakimbilie milimani.
15And let him that is on the housetop, not go down into the house, nor enter therein to take any thing out of the house:
15Mtu aliye juu ya paa la nyumba asishuke kuingia nyumbani mwake kuchukua kitu.
16And let him that shall be in the field, not turn back to take up his garment.
16Aliye shambani asirudi nyuma kuchukua vazi lake.
17And woe to them that are with child, and that give suck in those days.
17Ole wao waja wazito na wanaonyonyesha siku hizo!
18But pray ye, that these things happen not in winter.
18Ombeni ili mambo hayo yasitukie nyakati za baridi.
19For in those days shall be such tribulations, as were not from the beginning of the creation which God created until now, neither shall be.
19Maana wakati huo kutakuwa na dhiki ambayo haijatokea tangu Mungu alipoumba ulimwengu mpaka leo, wala haitatokea tena.
20And unless the Lord had shortened the days, no flesh should be saved: but for the sake of the elect which he hath chosen, he hath shortened the days.
20Kama Bwana asingepunguza siku hizo, hakuna binadamu ambaye angeokolewa. Lakini kwa ajili ya wateule wake, Bwana amezipunguza siku hizo.
21And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; lo, he is here: do not believe.
21“Basi mtu akiwaambieni, Tazama, Kristo yupo hapa! au Yupo pale! msimsadiki.
22For there will rise up false Christs and false prophets, and they shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce (if it were possible) even the elect.
22Maana watatokea kina Kristo wa uongo na manabii wa uongo, watafanya ishara na maajabu, ili kuwapotosha wateule wa Mungu, kama ikiwezekana.
23Take you heed therefore; behold I have foretold you all things.
23Lakini ninyi jihadharini. Mimi nimewaambieni mambo yote kabla hayajatokea.
24But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light.
24“Basi, siku hizo baada ya dhiki hiyo, jua litatiwa giza na mwezi hautaangaza.
25And the stars of heaven shall be falling down, and the powers that are in heaven, shall be moved.
25Nyota zitaanguka kutoka angani, na nguvu za mbingu zitatikiswa.
26And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds, with great power and glory.
26Hapo watamwona Mwana wa Mtu akija katika mawingu kwa nguvu nyingi na utukufu.
27And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven.
27Kisha atawatuma malaika wake; atawakusanya wateule wake kutoka pande zote nne za dunia, kutoka mwisho wa dunia mpaka mwisho wa mbingu.
28Now of the fig tree learn ye a parable. When the branch thereof is now tender, and the leaves are come forth, you know that summer is very near.
28“Kwa mtini jifunzeni mfano huu: Mara tu matawi yake yanapoanza kuwa laini na kuchanua majani, mnajua kwamba wakati wa kiangazi umekaribia.
29So you also when you shall see these things come to pass, know ye that it is very nigh, even at the doors.
29Hali kadhalika nanyi mtakapoona mambo hayo yakitendeka, jueni kwamba Mwana wa Mtu yuko karibu sana.
30Amen I say to you, that this generation shall not pass, until all these things be done.
30Nawaambieni kweli, kizazi hiki hakitapita kabla ya mambo hayo yote kutukia.
31Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my word shall not pass away.
31Mbingu na dunia zitapita, lakini maneno yangu hayatapita kamwe.
32But of that day or hour no man knoweth, neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but the Father.
32“Lakini hakuna mtu ajuaye siku au saa hiyo itakuja lini; wala malaika wa mbinguni, wala Mwana; Baba peke yake ndiye ajuaye.
33Take ye heed, watch and pray. For ye know not when the time is.
33Muwe waangalifu na kesheni, maana hamjui wakati huo utafika lini.
34Even as a man who going into a far country, left his house; and gave authority to his servants over every work, and commanded the porter to watch.
34Itakuwa kama mtu anayeondoka nyumbani kwenda safari akiwaachia watumishi wake madaraka, kila mmoja na kazi yake; akamwambia mlinzi wa mlango awe macho.
35Watch ye therefore, (for you know not when the lord of the house cometh: at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning,)
35Kesheni, basi, kwa maana hamjui mwenye nyumba atarudi lini; huenda ikawa jioni, usiku wa manane, alfajiri au asubuhi.
36Lest coming on a sudden, he find you sleeping.
36Kesheni ili akija ghafla asije akawakuta mmelala.
37And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch.
37Ninayowaambieni ninyi, nawaambia wote: Kesheni!”
