WORD Research this...Luke 20
- 1 Siku moja, Yesu alipokuwa akiwafundisha watu Hekaluni na kuwahubiria juu ya Habari Njema, makuhani wakuu na walimu wa Sheria pamoja na wazee walifika,
- 2 wakasema, "Tuambie! Unafanya mambo haya kwa mamlaka gani?"
- 3 Yesu akawaambia, "Na mimi nitawaulizeni swali:
- 4 mamlaka ya Yohane ya kubatiza yalitoka kwa Mungu au kwa watu?"
-
5 Lakini wao wakajadiliana hivi: "Tukisema yalitoka mbinguni, yeye atatuuliza:
Mbona hamkumsadiki? - 6 Na tukisema yalitoka kwa binadamu, watu wote hapa watatupiga mawe, maana wote wanaamini kwamba Yohane alikuwa nabii."
- 7 Basi, wakamwambia, "Hatujui mamlaka hayo yalitoka wapi."
- 8 Yesu akawaambia, "Hata mimi sitawaambia ninafanya mambo haya kwa mamlaka gani."
- 9 Yesu akaendelea kuwaambia watu mfano huu: "Mtu mmoja alilima shamba la mizabibu, akalikodisha kwa wakulima; kisha akasafiri hadi nchi ya mbali, akakaa huko kwa muda mrefu.
- 10 Wakati wa mavuno, mtu huyo alimtuma mtumishi wake kwa wale wakulima, akachukue sehemu ya matunda ya shamba la mizabibu. Lakini wale wakulima wakampiga mtumishi huyo wakamrudisha mikono mitupu.
- 11 Yule bwana akamtuma tena mtumishi mwingine; lakini wao wakampiga huyo vilevile na kumtendea vibaya, wakamrudisha mikono mitupu.
- 12 Akamtuma tena wa tatu; huyu naye, baada ya kumwumiza, wakamfukuza.
-
13 Yule mwenye shamba akafikiri:
Nitafanya nini? Nitamtuma mwanangu mpenzi; labda watamjali yeye. -
14 Wale wakulima walipomwona tu, wakasemezana:
Huyu ndiye mrithi. Basi, tumwue ili urithi wake uwe wetu. - 15 Basi, wakamtoa nje ya lile shamba la mizabibu, wakamwua." Yesu akauliza, "Yule mwenye shamba atawafanya nini hao wakulima?
- 16 Atakuja kuwaangamiza wakulima hao, na atawapa wakulima wengine hilo shamba la mizabibu." Watu waliposikia maneno hayo, walisema: "Hasha! Yasitukie hata kidogo!"
-
17 Lakini Yesu akawatazama, akawaambia, "Maandiko haya Matakatifu yana maana gani basi?
Jiwe walilokataa waashi, sasa limekuwa jiwe kuu la msingi! - 18 Mtu yeyote akianguka juu ya jiwe hilo, atavunjika vipandevipande; na likimwangukia mtu yeyote, litamsaga kabisa."
- 19 Walimu wa Sheria na makuhani wakuu walifahamu kwamba mfano huo ulikuwa unawahusu, na hivyo walitaka kumkamata palepale, ila tu waliogopa watu.
- 20 Basi, wakawa wanatafuta wakati wa kufaa. Wakawahonga watu fulani wajisingizie kuwa wema, wakawatuma wamnase Yesu kwa maswali, na hivyo waweze kumtia nguvuni na kumpeleka kwa wakuu wa serikali.
- 21 Hao wapelelezi wakamwambia, "Mwalimu, tunajua kwamba unasema na kufundisha mambo ya kweli; tunajua kwamba wewe huna ubaguzi; wewe wafundisha ukweli juu ya njia ya Mungu.
- 22 Basi, twambie kama ni halali, au la, kulipa kodi kwa Kaisari!"
- 23 Yesu alitambua mtego wao, akawaambia,
- 24 "Nionyesheni sarafu. Je, sura na chapa ni vya nani?"
- 25 Nao wakamjibu, "Ni vya Kaisari." Yesu akawaambia, "Basi, mpeni Kaisari vilivyo vyake Kaisari, na Mungu vilivyo vyake Mungu."
- 26 Hawakufaulu kumnasa kwa neno lolote pale mbele ya watu na hivyo wakakaa kimya wakilistaajabia jibu lake.
- 27 Kisha Masadukayo, ambao husema kwamba wafu hawafufuki, wakamjia Yesu, wakasema:
- 28 "Mwalimu, Mose alituandikia kwamba kama ndugu ya mtu fulani akifa na kumwacha mjane wake bila watoto, ni lazima ndugu yake amchukue huyo mama mjane, amzalie watoto ndugu yake marehemu.
- 29 Sasa, wakati mmoja kulikuwa na ndugu saba. Yule wa kwanza alioa na baadaye akafa bila kuacha mtoto.
- 30 Yule ndugu wa pili akamwoa yule mjane, naye pia, akafa;
- 31 na ndugu wa tatu vilevile. Mambo yakawa yaleyale kwa wote saba--wote walikufa bila kuacha watoto.
- 32 Mwishowe akafa pia yule mwanamke.
- 33 Je, siku wafu watakapofufuliwa, mwanamke huyo atakuwa mke wa nani? Alikuwa ameolewa na wote saba."
- 34 Yesu akawaambia, "Watu wa nyakati hizi huoa na kuolewa;
- 35 lakini wale ambao Mungu atawawezesha kushiriki ule wakati wa ufufuo, hawataoa wala kuolewa.
- 36 Ama hakika, hawawezi kufa tena, kwa sababu watakuwa kama malaika, na ni watoto wa Mungu kwa vile wamefufuliwa katika wafu.
- 37 Lakini, kwamba kuna kufufuka kutoka wafu, hata Mose alithibitisha jambo hilo katika Maandiko Matakatifu. Katika sehemu ya Maandiko Matakatifu juu ya kile kichaka kilichokuwa kinawaka moto, anamtaja Bwana kama Mungu wa Abrahamu, Isaka na Yakobo.
- 38 Basi, yeye si Mungu wa wafu, bali ni Mungu wa wale walio hai; maana wale aliowaita kwake, wanaishi naye."
- 39 Baadhi ya wale walimu wa Sheria wakasema, "Mwalimu, umejibu vema kabisa."
- 40 Walisema hivyo kwa sababu hawakuthubutu kumwuliza tena maswali mengine.
- 41 Yesu akawauliza, "Yasemekanaje kwamba Kristo ni mwana wa Daudi?
-
42 Maana Daudi mwenyewe anasema katika Zaburi:
Bwana alimwambia Bwana wangu: Keti upande wangu wa kulia -
43 mpaka niwafanye adui zako kama kiti cha kuwekea miguu yako.
-
44 Ikiwa Daudi anamwita yeye,
Bwana, basi atakuwaje mwanawe?" - 45 Yesu aliwaambia wanafunzi wake mbele ya watu wote,
- 46 "Jihadharini na walimu wa Sheria ambao hupenda kupitapita wamevalia kanzu. Hupenda kusalimiwa na watu kwa heshima masokoni, huketi mahali pa heshima katika masunagogi na kuchukua nafasi za heshima katika karamu.
- 47 Huwadhulumu wajane huku wakisingizia kuwa wema kwa kusali sala ndefu. Hao watapata hukumu kali zaidi!"

Basic Hash Usage Explained
At getBible, we've established a robust system to keep our API synchronized with the Crosswire project's modules. Let me explain how this integration works in simple terms.
We source our Bible text directly from the Crosswire modules. To monitor any updates, we generate "hash values" for each chapter, book, and translation. These hash values serve as unique identifiers that change only when the underlying content changes, thereby ensuring a tight integration between getBible and the Crosswire modules.
Every month, an automated process runs for approximately three hours. During this window, we fetch the latest Bible text from the Crosswire modules. Subsequently, we compare the new hash values and the text with the previous ones. Any detected changes trigger updates to both our official getBible hash repository and the Bible API for all affected translations. This system has been operating seamlessly for several years.
Once the updates are complete, any application utilizing our Bible API should monitor the hash values at the chapter, book, or translation level. Spotting a change in these values indicates that they should update their respective systems.
Hash values can change due to various reasons, including textual corrections like adding omitted verses, rectifying spelling errors, or addressing any discrepancies flagged by the publishers maintaining the modules at Crosswire.
The Crosswire initiative, also known as the SWORD Project, is the "source of truth" for getBible. Any modifications in the Crosswire modules get reflected in our API within days, ensuring our users access the most precise and current Bible text. We pledge to uphold this standard as long as getBible exists and our build scripts remain operational.
We're united in our mission to preserve the integrity and authenticity of the Bible text. If you have questions or require additional information, please use our support system. We're here to assist and will respond promptly.
Thank you for your understanding and for being an integral part of the getBible community.
