¹VaFarisi nevaSadhusi ndokuuya vakamukumbira kuti avaratidze chiratidzo chinobva kudenga vachimuidza.

¹And the Pharisees and Sadducees came, and trying him asked him to show them a sign from heaven.

²Asi wakapindura akati kwavari: Kana ava madekwana munoti: Kunze kwakanaka; nekuti denga rakatsvuka.

²But he answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, [It will be] fair weather: for the heaven is red.

³Uye mangwanani munoti: Nhasi kunze kwakaipa; nekuti denga rakatsvuka richikwidibira. Vanyepedzeri, munoziva kuongorora mamiriro edenga, asi hamugoni kuongorora zviratidzo zvenguva here?

³And in the morning, [It will be] foul weather to-day: for the heaven is red and lowering. Ye know how to discern the face of the heaven; but ye cannot [discern] the signs of the times.

⁴Zera rakaipa uye rinofeva richitsvaka chiratidzo; asi hapana chiratidzo chingapiwa kwariri, kunze kwechiratidzo chaJona muporofita. Ndokuvasiya, akaenda.

⁴An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of Jonah. And he left them, and departed.

⁵Zvino vadzidzi vakati vasvika mhiri, vakakangamwa kutora zvingwa.

⁵And the disciples came to the other side and forgot to take bread.

⁶Zvino Jesu akati kwavari: Onai mungwarire mbiriso yevaFarisi nevaSadhusi.

⁶And Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

⁷Vakarangana pakati pavo vachiti: Unodaro nekuti hatina kutora chingwa.

⁷And they reasoned among themselves, saying, We took no bread.

⁸Zvino Jesu azviziva akati kwavari: Imwi verutendo ruduku, nemhaka yei muchirangana kuti hamuna kutora zvingwa?

⁸And Jesus perceiving it said, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have no bread?

⁹Muchigere kunzwisisa here, kana kurangarira zvingwa zvishanu zvevanezvuru zvishanu, uye matengu mangani amakanonga?

⁹Do ye not yet perceive, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?

¹⁰Kana zvingwa zvinomwe zvevanezvuru zvina, uye matengu mangani amakanonga?

¹⁰Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?

¹¹Hamunzwisisi sei, kuti handina kutaura kwamuri pamusoro pezvingwa kuti muchenjere mbiriso yevaFarisi nevaSadhusi?

¹¹How is it that ye do not perceive that I spake not to you concerning bread? But beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

¹²Zvino vakanzwisisa kuti haana kutaura kuti vachenjere mbiriso yezvingwa, asi dzidziso yevaFarisi nevaSadhusi.

¹²Then understood they that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

¹³Jesu wakati asvika kumativi eKesariya yeFiripi, akabvunza vadzidzi vake, achiti: Vanhu vanoti ini Mwanakomana wemunhu ndini ani?

¹³Now when Jesus came into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Who do men say that the Son of man is?

¹⁴Ndokubva vati: Vamwe vanoti Johwani Mubhabhatidzi, uye vamwe Eria, vamwewo Jeremiya, kana umwe wevaporofita.

¹⁴And they said, Some [say] John the Baptist; some, Elijah; and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.

¹⁵Akati kwavari: Ko imwi munoti ndini ani?

¹⁵He saith unto them, But who say ye that I am?

¹⁶Zvino Simoni Petro akapindura akati: Ndimwi Kristu, Mwanakomana waMwari mupenyu.

¹⁶And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

¹⁷Jesu akapindura akati kwaari: Wakaropafadzwa, Simoni mwanakomana waJona, nekuti nyama neropa hazvina kukuzarurira izvozvo, asi Baba vangu vari kumatenga.

¹⁷And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jonah: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father who is in heaven.

¹⁸Neni ndinoti kwauri: Ndiwe Petro, uye pamusoro peruware urwu ndichavaka kereke yangu, nemasuwo egehena* haangaikundi.

¹⁸And I also say unto thee, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.

¹⁹Uye ndichapa kwauri kiyi dzeushe hwekumatenga; uye chipi nechipi chauchasunga panyika, chichasungwa kumatenga; nechipi nechipi chauchasunungura panyika, chichasunungurwa kumatenga.

¹⁹I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

²⁰Ipapo akarairisa vadzidzi vake kuti varege kuudza munhu kuti ndiye Jesu iye Kristu.

²⁰Then charged he the disciples that they should tell no man that he was the Christ.

²¹Kubva panguva iyo Jesu wakatanga kuratidza kuvadzidzi vake kuti unofanira kuenda kuJerusarema, uye kutambudzika zvizhinji zvichibva kuvakuru, nevapristi vakuru, nevanyori, nekuurawa, nekumutswa nezuva retatu.

²¹From that time began Jesus to show unto his disciples, that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.

²²Petro akamutora parutivi, akatanga kumutsiura akati: Ngazvirege kuva kwamuri, Ishe; izvi hazvingatongoitiki kwamuri.

²²And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall never be unto thee.

²³Asi iye wakatendeuka akati kuna Petro: Ibva shure kwangu, Satani! Uri chigumbuso kwandiri; nekuti haurangariri zvinhu zvaMwari, asi zvinhu zvevanhu.

²³But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art a stumbling-block unto me: for thou mindest not the things of God, but the things of men.

²⁴Zvino Jesu akati kuvadzidzi vake: Kana ani nani achida kuuya shure kwangu, ngaazvirambe, atakure muchinjikwa wake, anditevere.

²⁴Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man would come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

²⁵Nekuti ani nani unoda kuponesa upenyu hwake ucharashikirwa nahwo; asi ani nani unorashikirwa neupenyu hwake nekuda kwangu uchahuwana.

²⁵For whosoever would save his life shall lose it: and whosoever shall lose his life for my sake shall find it.

²⁶Nekuti munhu unobatsirwei kana akawana nyika yose, akarashikirwa nemweya wake? Kana munhu uchapei kuti chive muripo wemweya wake?

²⁶For what shall a man be profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and forfeit his life? or what shall a man give in exchange for his life?

²⁷Nekuti Mwanakomana wemunhu achauya mukubwinya kwaBaba vake nevatumwa vake, ipapo achapa mubairo umwe neumwe zvichienderana nebasa rake.

²⁷For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then shall he render unto every man according to his deeds.

²⁸Zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwamuri: Vamwe varipo kune vamire pano, vasingazoraviri rufu kusvikira vaona Mwanakomana wemunhu achiuya muushe hwake.

²⁸Verily I say unto you, there are some of them that stand here, who shall in no wise taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.
