< Luka 10 >
1 Pagamasile gelego, Ambuje ŵaasagwile ŵakulijiganya sabini na mbili. Ni ŵaatumile ŵakulijiganya ŵaŵili ŵaŵili ŵalongolele paujo pao pa misinda jilijose ni kulikose kuŵasachile nsyene kwaula.
After this the Lord appointed seventy others, and sent them before Him, by twos, to go to every town or place which He Himself intended to visit.
2 Ŵasalile ŵanyawo kuti, “Magungulo gali gamajinji nambo ŵakugungula ali kanandi. Nipele mwaŵende asyene ngunda kuti ŵatume ŵakugungula mu ngunda mwao.
And He addressed them thus: "The harvest is abundant, but the reapers are few: therefore entreat the Owner of the harvest to send out more reapers into His fields. And now go.
3 Sambano njaulangane, mmanyilile kuti nguntuma ŵanyamwe mpela mwanangondolo pasikati masogo.
Remember that I am sending you out as lambs into the midst of wolves.
4 Ngasinjigala chilolo pane nsaku pane ilatu ine, nkankomasya mundu jwalijose mwitala.
Carry no purse, bag, nor change of shoes; and salute no one on your way."
5 Mwajinjilaga mu nyuumba jajili jose, mwakomasye yelei kaje, ‘Chitendewele chipagwe mu nyuumba ji!’
"Whatever house you enter, first say, 'Peace be to this house!'
6 Iŵaga chapagwe jwakunonyelwa ni chitendewele mwelemo, chitendewele chenu chichitame najo, nambo iŵaga ngapagwa jwachitendewele, chitendewele chichimbujile kukwenu sooni.
And if there is a lover of peace there, your peace shall rest upon it; otherwise come back upon you.
7 Nlonjele pa nyuumba jo nchilyaga ni kung'wa yakumpanga, pakuŵa jwakupanganya masengo akuŵajilwa mbote. Ngasinsama nyuumba ji kwaula nyuumba jo.
And in that same house stay, eating and drinking at their table; for the labourer deserves his wages. Do not move from one house to another.
8 Mwaikaga mmusi wauli wose ni kumpochela, nlyanje yaili yose yakumpa.
"And whatever town you come to and they receive you, eat what they put before you.
9 Mwalamye ŵandu ŵakulwala ŵaali kweleko, mwasalile, ‘Umwenye wa Akunnungu uŵandichile kukwenu.’
Cure the sick in that town, and tell them, "'The Kingdom of God is now at your door.'
10 Nambo mwajinjilaga mmusi wauli wose ni akanaga kumpochela, ntyoche, nomwe pankupita mmatala gao nkajileje,
"But whatever town you come to and they will not receive you, go out into the broader streets and say,
11 ‘Atamuno luundu lwa pamusi wenu lwalunyambatile pa sajo syetu, tukumpatila ŵanyamwe kulosya kuti mwachinsyene nsagwile kuukana utenga wa Akunnungu. Nambo, mmanyilile kuti, umwenye wa Akunnungu uŵandichile.’
"'The very dust of your town that hangs about us we wipe off as a protest. Only be sure of this, that the Kingdom of God is close at hand.'
12 Ngunsalila kuti, pa lyuŵa lya malamulo magambo ga ŵandu wa musi wo chigaŵe gamakulungwa kupunda magambo ga ŵandu ŵa ku Sodoma.
"I tell you that it will be more endurable for Sodom on the great day than for that town.
13 “Ulaje uŵe kukwenu, ku Kolasini! Ulaje uŵe kukwenu, ku Besesaida! Pakuŵa, iŵaga yakusimosya iyatendekwe kukwenu, ikatendekwe ku Tilo ni ku Sidoni kula, ŵandu ŵa kwele kalakala pe akatemi paliu ali atakwile magunia ni kulitaga liu muntwe kulosya kuti alesile sambi syao.
"Alas for thee, Chorazin! Alas for thee, Bethsaida! For had the miracles been performed in Tyre and Sidon which have been performed in you, long ere now they would have repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
14 Nambo pa lyuŵa lya malamulo magambo genu chigaŵe gamakulungwa kupunda magambo ga ku Tilo ni ku Sidoni.
However, for Tyre and Sidon it will be more endurable at the Judgement than for you.
15 Ni mmwejo Kapelenaumu, ana nkuganisya kuti chinlikusye mpaka kwinani? Ngwamba chinchituluswa mpaka kwiuto kwa ŵandu ŵawile.” (Hadēs )
And thou, Capernaum, shalt thou be lifted high as Heaven? Thou shalt be driven down as low as Hades. (Hadēs )
16 Nipele Che Yesu ŵapundile kwasalila ŵakulijiganya ŵao kuti, “Jwakumpilikana ŵanyamwe, akumbilikana une, jwakumpochela ŵanyamwe akumbochela une. Ni jwalijose jwakukana kumbochela une, akwakana ŵandumile une.”
"He who listens to you listens to me; and he who disregards you disregards me, and he who disregards me disregards Him who sent me."
17 Kanyuma ŵakulijiganya sabini ŵausile achisengwaga, achitiji, “Ambuje, atamuno masoka gatujitichisye kwa liina lyenu.”
When the Seventy returned, they exclaimed joyfully, "Master, even the demons submit to us when we utter your name."
18 Ŵelewo ŵaasalile ŵanyawo kuti, “Nambweni Shetani yatiteje pakugwa mpela njasi kutyochela kwinani.
"I saw Satan fall like a lightning-flash out of Heaven," He replied.
19 Elo, nampele ulamusi wa kuliŵata majoka ni makoloto ni ulamusi wa pachanya machili gose ga jwammagongo ni ngapagwa chindu chachili chose chakummenga.
"I have given you power to tread serpents and scorpions underfoot, and to trample on all the power of the Enemy; and in no case shall anything do you harm.
20 Nambo nkasechelelela ligongo lyakuti masoka ganjitichisye, nambo nsechelele ligongo lya meena genu galembikwe kwinani.”
Nevertheless rejoice not at this, that the spirits submit to you; but rejoice that your names are registered in Heaven."
21 Katema kakoko peko, Che Yesu ŵasangalele kwa ulamusi wa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu, ŵatite, “Nguntogolela Atati, Ambuje ŵa kwinani ni chilambo, pakuŵa mwasisile yelei ŵa lunda ni ŵa umanyilisi ni kwaunukulila ŵanache. Elo, Atati, pakuŵa yeleyi ni yaitite pakunnonyela.”
On that same occasion Jesus was filled by the Holy Spirit with rapturous joy. "I give Thee fervent thanks," He exclaimed, "O Father, Lord of Heaven and earth, that Thou hast hidden these things from sages and men of understanding, and hast revealed them to babes. Yes, Father, for such has been Thy gracious will.
22 Nipele ŵatite, “Atati ŵangu ambele une indu yose. Ngapagwa jwakummanyilila Mwana akaŵe Atati, ni Atati akaŵe Mwana, ni jwalijose jwakunsaka Mwana akumbunukulila.”
All things are delivered to me by my Father; and no one knows who the Son is but the Father, nor who the Father is but the Son, and he to whom the Son may choose to reveal Him."
23 Nipele Che Yesu ŵagalauchile ŵakulijiganya ŵao ni kuŵecheta nawo kwantemela kuti, “Nkwete upile ŵanyamwe kwakwiwona inkwiwona yi.
And He turned towards His disciples and said to them apart, "Blessed are the eyes which see what you see!
24 Ngunsalila kuti ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu ni mamwenye ŵasachile kwiwona inkwiwona ŵanyamwe nambo nganaiwona ni kupilikana inkwipilikana ŵanyamwe, nambo nganaipikana.”
For I tell you that many Prophets and kings have desired to see the things you see, and have not seen them, and to hear the things you hear, and have not heard them."
25 Kanyuma, jwakwiganya Malajisyo jumo ŵajimi ni kwausya Che Yesu kwa kwalinga achitiji, “Jwakwiganya, ana ndende chichi pakuti ngole umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi?” (aiōnios )
Then an expounder of the Law stood up to test Him with a question. "Rabbi," he asked, "what shall I do to inherit the Life of the Ages?" (aiōnios )
26 Che Yesu ŵambusisye kuti, “Ana ilembechekwe chichi mu Malajisyo che Musa? Ana nkusyoma chichi mwelemo?”
"Go to the Law," said Jesus; "what is written there? how does it read?"
27 Ŵajanjile, “Mwanonyele Ambuje Akunnungu ŵenu ni ntima wenu wose ni uumi wenu wose ni machili genu gose ni umanyilisi wenu wose ni njenu mpela mwasyene.”
"'Thou shalt love the Lord thy God,'" he replied, "'with thy whole heart, thy whole soul, thy whole strength, and thy whole mind; and thy fellow man as much as thyself.'"
28 Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Njanjile uchenene! Ntendeje yeleyo, nomwe chinkole umi.”
"A right answer," said Jesus; "do that, and you shall live."
29 Nambo ŵelewo, ŵasachile kuliŵalanjila kuti akuchimanyilila chakuusya cho, ŵausisye Che Yesu, “Ana njangu jo ni ŵaani?”
But he, desiring to justify himself, said, "But what is meant by my 'fellow man'?"
30 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Jwapali mundu jumo jwaŵaumilaga ku Yelusalemu kutuluchila ku Yeliko. Paŵaliji mwitala, ŵasimene ŵachiswamba ni ŵambusile iwalo yakwe ni kumputa ni ŵatyosile ni kunneka achiŵandichilaga kuwa.
Jesus replied, "A man was once on his way down from Jerusalem to Jericho when he fell among robbers, who after both stripping and beating him went away, leaving him half dead.
31 Pangalolela, jwambopesi jumo ŵaliji nkupita mulamula mwitala mula, nambo paŵambweni ni ŵasepwiche pambali ni kwaula.
Now a priest happened to be going down that way, and on seeing him passed by on the other side.
32 Iyoyo peyo, Mlawi jumo paŵaiche pelepo ŵambweni, ni ŵasepwiche pambali ni kwaula.
In like manner a Levite also came to the place, and seeing him passed by on the other side.
33 Nambo Msamalia jumo juŵaliji muulendo ŵaiche pepala paŵaliji mundu jula, nombe paŵambweni ŵambonele chanasa.
But a certain Samaritan, being on a journey, came where he lay, and seeing him was moved with pity.
34 Nipele, ŵanjaulile, ŵagajosisye maŵanga gao kwa mauta ni divai ni kugataŵa maŵanga, paŵamasile kutenda yeleyo ŵanjigele pa chinyama chakwe, ni ŵanjawisye kukwalwasya mu nyuumba ja achalendo.
He went to him, and dressed his wounds with oil and wine and bound them up. Then placing him on his own mule he brought him to an inn, where he bestowed every care on him.
35 Malaŵi jakwe ŵatyosisye lupia siŵili sya mbiya, ŵampele jwakujigosa nyuumba jila ni ŵansalile kuti, ‘Munlwasye mundu ju ni chachili chose chachichipunde kwa jweleju, chinjilipila une pachimuje.’”
The next day he took out two shillings and gave them to the innkeeper. "'Take care of him,' he said, 'and whatever further expense you are put to, I will repay it you at my next visit.'
36 Che Yesu ŵausisye, “Mwa ŵele ŵatatu wo, ŵaani ŵalosisye kuti ali njakwe mundu juŵaputikwe ni ŵachiswamba?”
"Which of those three seems to you to have acted like a fellow man to him who fell among the robbers?"
37 Jwakwiganya Malajisyo jula ŵajanjile, “Jwejula juŵankolele chanasa jula.” Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Njaule nkatende iyoyo peyo.”
"The one who showed him pity," he replied. "Go," said Jesus, "and act in the same way."
38 Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao paŵaliji muulendo, ŵaiche kunsinda umo ni jwankongwe jumo liina lyao che Masa ŵampochele kumangwao.
As they pursued their journey He came to a certain village, where a woman named Martha welcomed Him to her house.
39 Che Masa ŵaliji ni mpwakwe liina lyao che Maliamu, jweleju ŵatemi chiŵandi ni Ambuje Che Yesu achipikanilaga majiganyo gao.
She had a sister called Mary, who seated herself at the Lord's feet and listened to His teaching.
40 Nambo che Masa ŵaliji nkuchenjeuka ni masengo gamajinji. Nipele ŵajaulile Che Yesu kukwasalila achitiji, “Ambuje, ana ngankulola kuti apwanga anesile une mbanganye masengo jika? Mwasalile aiche kukungamusya.”
Martha meanwhile was busy and distracted in waiting at table, and she came and said, "Master, do you not care that my sister is leaving me to do all the waiting? Tell her to assist me."
41 Nambo Ambuje ŵajanjile kuti, “Che Masa, che Masa, nkuchenjeuka ni kulisausya ni yejinji.
"Martha, Martha," replied Jesus, "you are anxious and worried about a multitude of things;
42 Nambo chipali chindu chimo pe chachikusachikwa. Che Maliamu asagwile liunjili lyambone ni sooni ngapagwa mundu juchachityosye kukwakwe.”
and yet only one thing is really necessary. Mary has chosen the good portion and she shall not be deprived of it."
