Luka 10
1 Zitatha izi Ambuye anasankha enanso 72 ndi kuwatumiza awiriawiri patsogolo pake ku mzinda uliwonse ndi kumalo kumene Iye anatsala pangʼono kupitako.
Now after these things the Lord also appointed seventy other men, and sent them by twos before his face into every city and place where he himself was going to come.
2 Iye anawawuza kuti, “Zokolola ndi zambiri, koma ogwira ntchito ndi ochepa. Pemphani Ambuye wa zokolola, kuti atumize antchito ku munda wake wa zokolola.
Therefore he said to them, The harvest indeed is plentiful, but the workmen are few. Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth workmen into his harvest.
3 Pitani! Ine ndikukutumizani ngati nkhosa pakati pa mimbulu.
Go ye. Behold, I send you forth as lambs in the midst of wolves.
4 Musatenge chikwama kapena thumba kapena nsapato; ndipo musalonjere wina aliyense pa njira.
Carry no bag, no pouch, no shoes, and greet no man on the way.
5 “Mukamalowa mʼnyumba, poyamba nenani kuti, ‘Mtendere pa nyumba ino.’
And into whatever house ye enter, first say, Peace to this house.
6 Ngati mʼnyumbamo muli munthu wofuna mtendere, mtendere wanuwo udzakhala pa iyeyo; ngati mulibemo, mtendere wanuwo udzabwerera kwa inu.
And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest upon him, and if not, it will return to you.
7 Khalani mʼnyumba yomweyo, idyani ndi kumwa chilichonse chimene akupatsani, pakuti wantchito ayenera kulandira malipiro ake. Musachoke kumene mwafikirako ndi kupita ku nyumba zina.
And remain in the same house eating and drinking from their things, for the workman is worthy of his wage. Do not depart from house to house.
8 “Mukamalowa mʼmudzi, ndi kulandiridwa, idyani chilichonse akukonzerani.
And into whatever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat the things that are set before you.
9 Chiritsani odwala amene ali kumeneko ndipo muwawuze kuti, ‘Ufumu wa Mulungu wayandikira.’
And heal the weak in it, and say to them, The kingdom of God has come near to you.
10 Koma mukalowa mʼmudzi ndipo osalandiridwa bwino, kapiteni ku misewu mʼmudzimo nʼkukanena kuti,
But into whatever city ye enter, and they will not receive you, after departing into the thoroughfares of it, say,
11 ‘Tikukusansirani ngakhale fumbi la mʼmudzi wanuwu limene lamamatira ku mapazi athuwa. Komabe dziwani izi: Ufumu wa Mulungu wayandikira.’
Even the dust that clings on us from your city, we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know ye this, that the kingdom of God has come near to you.
12 Ine ndikuwuzani kuti adzachita chifundo polanga Sodomu pa tsikulo kusiyana ndi mudziwo.
I say to you, that it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city.
13 “Ndiwe watsoka, iwe Korazini! Ndiwe watsoka, iwe Betisaida! Kukanakhala kuti zodabwitsa zimene zinachitika mwa inu zinachitika ku Turo ndi Sidoni, iwo akanatembenuka mtima kale lomwe, atavala ziguduli ndi kudzola phulusa.
Woe to thee, Chorazin! Woe to thee, Bethsaida! Because if the mighty works were done in Tyre and Sidon, which were done in you, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
14 Koma adzachita chifundo polanga Turo ndi Sidoni kusiyana ndi inu.
But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment, than for you.
15 Kodi iwe Kaperenawo, adzakukweza mpaka kumwamba? Ayi, adzakutsitsa mpaka ku Malo a anthu akufa. (Hadēs g86)
And thou, Capernaum, which was exalted to the sky, will be thrust down to Hades. (Hadēs g86)
16 “Womvera inu, akumvera Ine; wokana inu, akukana Ine. Ndipo wokana Ine; akukana Iye amene anandituma Ine.”
He who hears you hears me, and he who rejects you rejects me, and he who rejects me rejects him who sent me.
17 Anthu 72 aja anabwerera ndi chimwemwe ndipo anati, “Ambuye, ngakhale ziwanda zinatigonjera ife mʼdzina lanu.”
And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are made subject to us in thy name.
18 Iye anayankha kuti, “Ndinaona Satana akugwa kuchokera kumwamba ngati mphenzi.
And he said to them, I beheld Satan fallen as lightning from the sky.
19 Ine ndakupatsani ulamuliro woponda njoka ndi zinkhanira, ndi kugonjetsa mphamvu zonse za mdani; palibe chimene chidzakupwetekani.
Behold, I give you authority to tread over serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and, no, nothing will harm you.
20 Komabe musakondwere chifukwa mizimu yoyipa inakugonjerani, koma kondwerani chifukwa mayina anu analembedwa kumwamba.”
Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are made subject to you, but rejoice because your names are written in the heavens.
21 Nthawi imeneyo Mzimu Woyera anadzaza Yesu ndi chimwemwe ndipo anati, “Ine ndikulemekeza Inu, Atate Ambuye a kumwamba ndi dziko lapansi, chifukwa mwawabisira anthu anzeru ndi ophunzira zinthu izi ndipo mwaziwulula kwa ana aangʼono. Inde, Atate, pakuti munachita zimenezi mwachifuniro chanu.
In the same hour Jesus rejoiced in the Spirit, and said, I thank thee, Father, Lord of the heaven and the earth, that thou hid these things from the wise and astute, and revealed them to the childlike. Yea, Father, because it became pleasing this way in thy sight.
22 “Atate anga anapereka zinthu zonse mʼmanja mwanga. Palibe amene amadziwa Mwana kupatula Atate yekha, ndipo palibe amene amadziwa Atate kupatula Mwana yekha, ndiponso amene Mwanayo akufuna kumuwululira.”
And having turned to the disciples, he said, All things were delivered to me by my Father. And no man knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whomever the Son wants to reveal him.
23 Kenaka anatembenukira kwa ophunzira ake nawawuza iwo okha kuti, “Ndi odala maso amene akuona zimene mukuonazi.
And having turning toward the disciples in private, he said, Blessed are the eyes that see what ye see.
24 Pakuti kunena zoona aneneri ambiri ndi mafumu anafunitsitsa kuona zimene mukuonazi koma sanazione, ndi kumva zimene mukumvazi koma sanazimve.”
For I say to you, that many prophets and kings desired to see what ye see, and did not see, and to hear what ye hear, and did not hear.
25 Nthawi ina katswiri wa malamulo anayimirira kuti ayese Yesu. Iye anati, “Aphunzitsi, ndichite chiyani kuti ndikhale ndi moyo wosatha?” (aiōnios g166)
And behold, a certain lawyer stood up testing him, and saying, Teacher, having done what, would I inherit eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
26 Yesu anayankha kuti, “Mwalembedwa chiyani mʼMalamulo, ndipo iwe umawerenga zotani?”
And he said to him, What is written in the law? How read thou?
27 Iye anayankha kuti, “Uzikonda Yehova Mulungu wako ndi mtima wako wonse, ndi moyo wako wonse, ndi mphamvu zako zonse ndi nzeru zako zonse, ndi kukonda mnansi wako monga iwe mwini.”
And having answered, he said, Thou shall love the Lord thy God from thy whole heart, and from thy whole soul, and from thy whole strength, and from thy whole mind, and thy neighbor as thyself.
28 Yesu anayankha kuti, “Iwe wayankha bwino, chita zimenezi ndipo udzakhala ndi moyo.”
And he said to him, Thou answered correctly. Do this and thou will live.
29 Koma iye anafuna kudzilungamitsa yekha, ndipo anamufunsanso Yesu kuti, “Kodi mnansi wanga ndani?”
But he, wanting to justify himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbor?
30 Yesu pomuyankha anati, “Munthu wina ankatsikira ku Yeriko kuchokera ku Yerusalemu. Pa njira anavulazidwa ndi achifwamba. Anamuvula zovala zake, namumenya ndi kuthawa, namusiya ali pafupi kufa.
And having replied, Jesus said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho. And he encountered bandits, who also, having stripped him and having beat him, departed having left him being half dead.
31 Wansembe ankapita pa njira yomweyo, ndipo ataona munthuyo, analambalala.
And by coincidence a certain priest was going down on that road, and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
32 Chimodzimodzinso, Mlevi wina pamene anafika pa malopo ndi kumuona, analambalalanso.
And likewise also a Levite who happened upon the place, having come, and having looked, passed by on the other side.
33 Koma Msamariya wina, ali pa ulendo wake, anafika pamene panali munthuyo; ndipo atamuona, anamva naye chisoni.
But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to him, and when he saw him, felt compassion.
34 Anapita panali munthu wovulalayo, nathira mafuta ndi vinyo pa zilonda zake, nʼkuzimanga. Kenaka anamukweza pa bulu wake, napita naye ku nyumba ya alendo, namusamalira.
And having come, he wrapped up his wounds, pouring on olive oil and wine. And having set him on his own beast, he brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
35 Mmawa mwake anatenga ndalama ziwiri zasiliva nazipereka kwa woyangʼanira nyumbayo, nati, ‘Musamalireni munthuyu, ndipo pobwera ndidzakubwezerani zonse zimene mugwiritse ntchito.’
And on the morrow when departing, after taking out two denarii, he gave them to the innkeeper, and said to him, Take care of him, and whatever thou might spend more, I will repay thee at my return.
36 “Kodi ukuganiza ndi ndani mwa atatuwa, amene anali mnansi wa munthu amene anavulazidwa ndi achifwambawo?”
Which therefore, of these three, appears to thee to have become neighbor to the man who fell among the bandits?
37 Katswiri wa Malamulo uja anayankha kuti, “Amene anamuchitira chifundo.” Yesu anamuwuza kuti, “Pita, uzikachita chimodzimodzi.”
And he said, He who did mercy with him. Therefore Jesus said to him, Go, and do thou likewise.
38 Yesu ndi ophunzira ake akuyenda, anafika pa mudzi kumene mayi wotchedwa Marita anamulandira Iye mʼnyumba mwake.
And it came to pass as they went, he also entered into a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.
39 Mayiyu anali ndi mchemwali wake wotchedwa Mariya, amene anakhala pa mapazi a Yesu kumverera zimene Iye ankanena.
And she was sister to this woman called Mary, who also, having sat at Jesus' feet, was listening to his word.
40 Koma Marita anatanganidwa ndi zokonzekera zonse zimene zimayenera kuchitika. Iye anabwera kwa Yesu namufunsa kuti, “Ambuye, kodi simusamala kuti mchemwali wanga wandisiya kuti ndichite ntchito yonse ndekha? Muwuzeni andithandize!”
But Martha was encumbered about much serving. And having stood near, she said, Lord, do thou not care that my sister left me behind to serve alone? Speak to her therefore that she may help me.
41 Ambuye anati, “Marita, Marita, ukudandaula ndi kuvutika ndi zinthu zambiri,
But having answered, Jesus said to her, Martha, Martha, thou are anxious and troubled about many things,
42 koma chofunika nʼchimodzi chokha. Mariya wasankha chinthu chabwino, ndipo palibe angamulande chimenechi.”
but one thing is necessary, and Mary has chosen the good part, which will not be taken away from her.
