Matthew 13
King James Version
13 The same day went Jesus out of the house, and sat by the sea side.
2 And great multitudes were gathered together unto him, so that he went into a ship, and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore.
3 And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow;
4 And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:
5 Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:
6 And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.
7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:
8 But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.
9 Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
10 And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?
11 He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.
12 For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.
13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
14 And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:
15 For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
17 For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.
18 Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.
19 When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.
20 But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;
21 Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.
22 He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.
23 But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
24 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:
25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.
26 But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.
27 So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?
28 He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?
29 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.
30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
31 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field:
32 Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.
33 Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
34 All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them:
35 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.
36 Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.
37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;
38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
44 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.
45 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls:
46 Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.
47 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:
48 Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.
49 So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just,
50 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
51 Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things? They say unto him, Yea, Lord.
52 Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.
53 And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed thence.
54 And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath this man this wisdom, and these mighty works?
55 Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?
56 And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this man all these things?
57 And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.
58 And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.

13 Tsiku lomwelo Yesu anatuluka mʼnyumba ndipo anakhala mʼmbali mwa nyanja. 2 Magulu a anthu anasonkhana mozungulira ndipo Iye analowa mʼbwato nakhala pansi ndipo anthu onse anayimirira ku mtunda. 3 Pamenepo Iye anawawuza zinthu zambiri mʼmafanizo ndi kuti, “Mlimi anapita kukafesa mbewu zake. 4 Akufesa, zina zinagwera mʼmbali mwa njira ndipo mbalame zinabwera ndi kuzidya. 5 Zina zinagwa pamalo a miyala pamene panalibe dothi lambiri. Zinamera mofulumira chifukwa panalibe dothi lambiri. 6 Koma dzuwa litakwera, mbewu zinapserera ndipo zinawuma chifukwa zinalibe mizu. 7 Mbewu zina zinagwa pa minga ndipo mingayo inayanga ndi kuzirepheretsa kukula. 8 Koma mbewu zina zinagwa pa nthaka yabwino ndipo zinabala zipatso 100, zina 60 ndipo zinanso makumi atatu mwa zimene zinafesedwa. 9 Amene ali ndi makutu amve.”
10 Ophunzira anabwera kwa Iye ndikumufunsa kuti, “Chifukwa chiyani Inu mukuyankhula kwa anthu mʼmafanizo?”
11 Iye anayankha kuti, “Nzeru zakudziwa zinsinsi za ufumu wakumwamba zapatsidwa kwa inu koma osati kwa iwo. 12 Aliyense amene ali nazo adzapatsidwa zowonjezera ndipo iye adzakhala nazo zambiri. Aliyense amene alibe, ngakhale zimene ali nazo adzamulanda. 13 Ichi ndi chifukwa chake ndimayankhula kwa iwo mʼmafanizo:
“Ngakhale akupenya koma saona,
ngakhale akumva koma samvetsetsa kapena kuzindikira.
14 Mwa iwo zimene ananenera Yesaya zikwaniritsidwa:
“ ‘Kumva mudzamva koma osamvetsetsa.
Kupenya mudzapenya koma osaona kanthu.
15 Pakuti mtima wa anthu awa ndi wokanika,
mʼmakutu mwawo ndi mogontha,
ndipo atsinzina
kuti asaone kanthu.
Mwina angapenye ndi maso awo,
angamve ndi makutu awo, angamvetse ndi nzeru zawo ndi kutembenuka,
Ineyo nʼkuwachiritsa.’
16 Koma maso anu ndi odala chifukwa amapenya ndi makutu anu chifukwa amamva. 17 Zoonadi, Ine ndikuwuzani kuti aneneri ambiri ndi anthu olungama anafuna kuona zimene inu mukupenya koma sanazione ndi kumva zimene inu mukumva koma sanazimve.
Tanthauzo la Fanizo la Wofesa
18 “Tamverani tsono zimene fanizo la wofesa litanthauza: 19 Pamene aliyense akumva uthenga wa ufumu koma sawuzindikira, woyipayo amabwera ndi kuchotsa zimene zafesedwa mu mtima mwake. Iyi ndi mbewu yofesedwa mʼmbali mwa njira. 20 Zimene zinafesedwa pa malo amiyala ndi munthu amene amamva mawu ndi kuwalandira msanga ndi chimwemwe. 21 Koma popeza alibe muzu, iwo amakhala nthawi yochepa. Pamene vuto kapena zunzo libwera chifukwa cha mawu, iye amagwa mofulumira. 22 Zimene zinafesedwa pakati pa minga, ndi munthu amene amamva mawu koma nkhawa za moyo uno ndi chinyengo cha chuma zimalepheretsa mawuwo kuti abale chipatso. 23 Koma zimene zinafesedwa pa nthaka yabwino, ndi munthu amene amamva mawu ndipo amawazindikira. Iye amabala zipatso zokwanira 100, zina 60 ndipo zinanso makumi atatu mwa zimene zinafesedwa.”
Fanizo la Namsongole
24 Yesu anawawuza fanizo lina kuti: “Ufumu wakumwamba ufanana ndi munthu amene anafesa mbewu zabwino mʼmunda mwake. 25 Koma aliyense akugona usiku mdani wake anabwera ndi kufesa namsongole pakati pa tirigu ndipo anachoka. 26 Pamene tirigu anamera ndi kutulutsa ngala, namsongole anaonekanso.
27 “Antchito ake anabwera kwa iye ndi kuti, ‘Bwana, kodi simunafese mbewu zabwino mʼmunda mwanu? Nanga namsongole wachokera kuti?’
28 “Iye anayankha kuti, ‘Ndi mdani amene anachita izi.’
“Antchito anamufunsa iye kuti, ‘Kodi mufuna kuti tipite tikamuzule?’
29 “Iye anakana nati, ‘Ayi. Chifukwa pamene mukuzula namsongoleyo mwina inu mungazulire pamodzi ndi tirigu. 30 Zisiyeni zonse zikulire pamodzi mpaka nthawi yokolola. Pa nthawi imeneyo ndidzawuza okolola kuti: Poyamba sonkhanitsani namsongole ndi kumumanga mʼmitolo kuti atenthedwe, kenaka sonkhanitsani tirigu ndi kumuyika mʼnkhokwe yanga.’ ”
Fanizo la Mbewu ya Mpiru ndi Yisiti
31 Iye anawawuza fanizo lina kuti, “Ufumu wakumwamba uli ngati mbewu ya mpiru, imene munthu anatenga ndi kudzala mʼmunda mwake. 32 Ngakhale mbewuyi ndi yayingʼono mwa mbewu zanu zonse za mʼmunda, imakula ndi kukhala mtengo kotero kuti mbalame zamlengalenga zimabwera ndi kupumula mʼnthambi zake.”
33 Iye anawawuzanso fanizo lina nati: “Ufumu wakumwamba ufanana ndi yisiti amene mayi anatenga ndi kusakaniza mu ufa wambiri mpaka wonse unafufuma.”
34 Yesu anayankhula zinthu zonsezi kwa gulu la anthu mʼmafanizo ndipo Iye sananene kalikonse kwa iwo osagwiritsa ntchito fanizo. 35 Kotero zinakwaniritsidwa zimene zinayankhulidwa ndi mneneri kuti,
“Ndidzatsekula pakamwa panga ndi mafanizo,
ndidzawulula zinthu zobisika
chiyambire kukhazikidwa kwa dziko lapansi.”
Yesu Awatanthauzira Fanizo la Namsongole
36 Kenaka Iye anasiya gulu la anthu ndi kukalowa mʼnyumba. Ophunzira ake anapita kwa Iye nati, “Timasulireni fanizo la namsongole mʼmunda.”
37 Iye anayankha nati, “Munthu amene anafesa mbewu yabwino ndi Mwana wa Munthu. 38 Munda ndi dziko lapansi ndipo mbewu yabwino ndi ana a ufumu. Namsongole ndi ana a woyipayo. 39 Ndipo amene anafesa namsongole ndi Satana. Kukolola ndiko kutha kwa dzikoli ndipo otuta ndi angelo.
40 “Monga momwe namsongole azulidwa ndi kutenthedwa ndi moto, momwemonso kudzakhala pakutha kwa dziko. 41 Mwana wa Munthu adzatumiza angelo ake ndipo iwo adzachotsa mu ufumu wake chilichonse chochimwitsa ndi onse amene amachita zoyipa. 42 Adzawaponya mʼngʼanjo yamoto kumene kudzakhala kulira ndi kukuta mano. 43 Pamenepo olungama adzawala ngati dzuwa mu ufumu wa Atate awo. Amene ali ndi makutu amve.”
Fanizo la Chuma Chobisika ndi la Ngale
44 “Ufumu wakumwamba ufanana ndi chuma chobisika mʼmunda. Munthu atachipeza anachibisanso ndipo ndi chimwemwe anapita nakagulitsa zonse anali nazo, nakagula mundawo.
45 “Komanso Ufumu wakumwamba ufanana ndi wogulitsa malonda amene amafuna ngale zabwino. 46 Atapeza imodzi ya mtengowapatali, iye anapita nakagulitsa chilichonse anali nacho ndi kukayigula.”
Fanizo la Khoka
47 “Komanso Ufumu wakumwamba ufanana ndi khoka limene linaponyedwa mʼnyanja ndipo linakola mitundu yonse ya nsomba. 48 Litadzaza, asodzi analikokera ku mtunda. Pomwepo anakhala pansi nasonkhanitsa nsomba zabwino mʼmadengu koma zoyipa anazitaya. 49 Umu ndi mmene kudzakhalira pakutha kwa dziko. Angelo adzabwera ndi kulekanitsa oyipa ndi olungama. 50 Ndipo oyipa adzawaponya mʼngʼanjo ya moto kumene kudzakhala kulira ndi kukukuta mano.”
51 Yesu anawafunsa kuti, “Kodi mwamvetsetsa zonsezi?”
Iwo anayankha kuti, “Inde.”
52 Iye anawawuza kuti, “Chifukwa chake mphunzitsi aliyense wa malamulo amene walangizidwa za ufumu wakumwamba ali ngati mwini nyumba amene amatulutsa chuma chatsopano komanso chakale.”
Amupeputsa Yesu ku Nazareti
53 Yesu atatsiriza mafanizowa anachoka kumeneko. 54 Atafika ku mudzi kwawo anayamba kuphunzitsa mʼmasunagoge awo ndipo iwo anadabwa nati, “Munthu uyu anayitenga kuti nzeru iyi ndi mphamvu zodabwitsazi? 55 Kodi si mwana wa wopala matabwa? Kodi dzina la amayi ake si Mariya ndipo kodi abale ake si Yakobo, Yosefe, Simoni ndi Yudasi? 56 Kodi alongo ake onse sali ndi ife? Tsono ndi kuti kumene anazitenga zinthu izi?” 57 Ndipo iwo anakhumudwa chifukwa cha Iye.
Koma Yesu anawawuza kuti, “Mneneri sapatsidwa ulemu ku mudzi kwawo ndi ku nyumba kwawo.”
58 Ndipo Iye sanachite zodabwitsa zambiri kumeneko chifukwa cha kusowa kwa chikhulupiriro kwawo.
