Luka 11
1 Lyuŵa limo, Che Yesu ŵaliji nkupopela peuto pamo, paŵamasile, jumo jwa ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵatite, “Ambuje, ntujiganye kupopela, kwati mpela che Yohana Ŵakubatisya iŵatite pakwajiganya ŵakulijiganya ŵao.”
And it came to pass, that He was in a certain place praying; when He ceased, one of His disciples said to Him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.
2 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Pankupopela, njileje yelei, ‘Atati, Liina lyenu lijinichilwe, Umwenye wenu uiche.
And He said to them, When you pray, say, Our Father, let thy name be hallowed: let thy kingdom come:
3 Ntupe chakulya chetu cha lyuŵa ni lyuŵa.
give unto us this day our daily bread:
4 Ntulechelesye sambi syetu, pakuŵa uweji nombe tukwalechelesya wose ŵakutuleŵela. Ni sooni nkatujinjisya nkulinjikwa.’”
and forgive us our sins; for we also do forgive every one owing us: and lead us not into temptation.
5 Ni Che Yesu ŵaasalile kuti, “Tujile jumo jwenu akwete ambusanga ni anjaulilaga pasikati chilo ni kunsalila, ‘Ambusanga, mungongosye mikate jitatu none chinambuchisye,
And He said to them, Which one of you shall have a friend, and go to him at midnight, and say to him, Friend, lend me three loaves;
6 pakuŵa ambusanga ŵangu ali mu ulendo, asepuchile kumusi none nganingola chakwapa.’
since my friend came to me from the road, and I have nothing which I may place before him.
7 Nganichisye kuti ambusanga ŵenu akanjanjile ali nkati, ‘Nkaasausya une! Pakuŵa masile kuugala nnango. Une ni achiŵanangu tugonile ni ngangukombola kwimuka ni kumpa!’
And he responding from within, said, Do not give me trouble: the door has already been closed, and my children are in bed with me; I am not able rising to give unto thee.
8 Isyene ngunsalila kuti, ngaajimuka ni kwapa atamuno ali ambusanga gwao pe, nambo ligongo lya mundu jo ichajile pakupunda kwachondelela, chajimuche ni kwapa chachili chose chakuchisaka.
I say unto you, If indeed having risen he will not give unto him, because he is his friend, yet on account of his shamelessness, rising he will give him as much as he needs.
9 “Nipele none ngunsalila yakuti, mmende ni ŵanyamwe chimpegwe, nsose ni ŵanyamwe chinnyiwone, mpoposye ni ŵanyamwe chachimbugulila nnango.
And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given unto you; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
10 Pakuŵa jwalijose jwakuŵenda akupegwa ni jwakusosa akupata ni jwakupoposya, nnango ukuugulikwa kwa ligongo lyakwe.
For every one asking receives; and the one seeking finds; and to the one knocking it shall be opened.
11 Ana, atati chi mwa ŵanyamwe, mwanache aŵendaga somba, chachiapa lijoka kuleka kwapa somba?
And which father of you shall if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? or indeed a fish, will he instead of a fish give him a serpent?
12 Pane ŵaŵendaga lindanda, ana chachapa likoloto?
Or indeed shall he ask an egg, will he give him a scorpion?
13 Chisau ŵanyamwe ŵangalumbana, nkumanyilila kwapa achiŵana ŵenu indu yambone, isyene Atati ŵenu ŵa kwinani chiŵape Mbumu jwa Akunnungu aŵala ŵakwaŵenda.”
If then you, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, then how much more will your Father who is from heaven give the Holy Spirit to them that ask Him?
14 Lyuŵa limo Che Yesu ŵaliji nkukoposya lisoka lilyantendekenye mundu anaŵechete. Pilyakopweche lisoka lyo, jwangaŵecheta jo, ŵakombwele kuŵecheta, ni mpingo wa ŵandu ŵasimosile.
And He was casting out a demon, and he was dumb: and it came to pass, the demon having gone out, the dumb spoke; and the multitudes were astonished.
15 Nambo ŵane mwa ŵelewo ŵatite, “Akugakoposya masoka kwa ulamusi wa Belesebuli, jwankulu jwa masoka.”
And certain ones of them said, He casts out the demon through Beelzebul, the prince of the demons.
16 Ni ŵane ŵalinjile kwakwaŵenda ŵalosye chimanyisyo chakuti ulamusi wao utyochele kwinani.
And others tempting, continued to seek with Him a sign from heaven.
17 Nambo Che Yesu, achimanyililaga ng'anisyo syao ni ŵaasalile ŵanyawo, “Ŵandu ŵa umwenye wauliwose aputanaga achinsyene pe wele umwenye wo chiugwe ni ŵandu wa nyuumba jajili jose ŵaputanaga achinsyene pe ŵandu ŵa nyuumba jo chajonasiche.
And He, knowing their thoughts, said to them, Every kingdom divided against itself, comes to desolation, and house falls upon house.
18 Nipele iŵaga Shetani akulikanila nsyene, umwenye wakwe chiulame? Nguti yeleyi pakuŵa ŵanyamwe nkuumecheta kuti ngugakoposya masoka kwa ulamusi wa Belesebuli.
And if Satan were indeed divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? Because you say I am casting out demons through Beelzebul.
19 Ŵakulijiganya ŵenu nombe akugakoposya masoka mpela inguti kupanganya une, iŵele uli menema musalile kuti ngugakoposya masoka kwa ulamusi wa Belesebuli? Nipele ŵanyawo ni utachinnamula ŵanyamwe.
But if I through Beelzebul cast out the demons, through whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges:
20 Nambo iŵaga ngugakoposya masoka kwa ulamusi wa Akunnungu, nipele nnyimanyilile kuti Umwenye wa Akunnungu umasile kwika kukwenu.
but if I through the finger of God cast out the demons, then the kingdom of God has come nigh unto you.
21 “Mundu jwali ni machili pakulindilila nyuumba jakwe ni yakumenyanila yakwe, ipanje yakwe yose chigosekwe.
When the strong man armed may keep his palace, his goods are in peace:
22 Nambo aikaga jŵapundile machili ni kumputa, jwelejo akunsumula yakumenyanila yose iyaikulupililaga yo ni kuigaŵanya iŵasumwile.
but when one stronger than he, having come, may conquer him, he takes away his panoply in which he trusted, and divides his spoils.
23 “Mundu jwalijose jwanganaŵa pamo ni une, akunganila ni mundu jwalijose jwangakusakulila pamo ni une, jwelejo akupwilinganya.
The one not being with me is against me; and the one not gathering with me scatters abroad.
24 “Lisoka lyankopokaga mundu likusyungula syungula mwipululu mwangali meesi lichisosaga pakupumulila. Palikulepela likuti, ‘Chimujile ku nyuumba jangu kungopochela kula.’
When the unclean spirit may go out from the man, he goes through dry places; seeking rest, and finding none, he says, I will return into my own house, whence I came out.
25 Palikuujila, akujisimana nyuumba jila jili jepyajile ni mwekotopasye.
And having come he finds it swept and beautified.
26 Nipele likwaula kukugajigala masoka gane saba gakusakala kupunda ŵelewo, gose gakwaula kukunjinjila mundu jula. Kumbesi kwakwe mundu jo akuŵa jwakusakala kupunda iŵaliji kundanda.”
Then he goes, and takes seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and having come in he dwells there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first.
27 Che Yesu paŵaliji nkuŵecheta gelego, jumo jwa achakongwe jwa mumpingo mwa ŵandu mula, ŵanyanyisye liloŵe achitiji, “Jwana upile jwankongwe jwambeleche ni kunjonjesya jo!”
And it came to pass, while He is speaking these words, a certain woman lifting up her voice from the crowd, said to Him, Blessed is the womb having borne thee, and the breasts which thou didst suck.
28 Nambo Che Yesu ŵaŵechete, “Nambo ŵana upile wakupunda ŵakulipilikanichisya liloŵe lya Akunnungu ni kwitichisya.”
And He said, Truly blessed are those hearing the word of God, and keeping it.
29 Nipele, mpingo wa ŵandu paŵaliji nkoonjecheka, Che Yesu ŵatandite kusala, “Uŵelesi wu uli uŵelesi wa kusakala. Ukusaka chimanyisyo, nambo ngaupegwa chimanyisyo chachili chose ikaŵe chimanyisyo chi che Yona chila.
And the multitudes being assembled, He began to say, This is a wicked generation: it seeks after a sign, and no sign shall be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.
30 Mpela che Yona iŵaliji chimanyisyo cha ŵandu wa ku Ninawi ni iyoyo peyo Mwana jwa Mundu chachiŵa chimanyisyo kwa uŵelesi wu.
For as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so shall the Son of man also be a sign to this generation.
31 Iyoyo peyo pa lyuŵa lyakulamulila Mwenye jwankongwe jwa ku Sheba chakopochele pamo ni ŵandu wa uŵelesi wu, nombewo chachisala kuti uŵelesi wu wanamagambo. Pakuŵa ŵelewo ŵaumile kwakutalichila, ŵaiche kukugapikanila maloŵe gambone ga lunda ga mwenye che Selemani, nambo pelepa apali jwankulu kupunda mwenye che Selemani.
The queen of the south will rise in judgment with this generation, and condemn them; because she came from the uttermost parts of the earth, to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, a greater than Solomon is here.
32 Ŵandu ŵa ku Ninawi chakopochele pa lyuŵa lya malamulo lyo pamo ni ŵandu ŵa uŵelesi wu, nombewo chachisala kuti uŵelesi wu wanamagambo. Pakuŵa ŵandu ŵa ku Ninawi ŵalesile sambi ligongo lya kulalichilwa utenga wa Akunnungu ni che Yona, nambo pelepa kwana jwankulu kwapunda che Yona.
The men of Nineveh will rise in judgment with this generation, and condemn it: because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold a greater than Jonah is here.
33 “Ngapagwa mundu jwakupamba lumuli ni kulusisa pane kuluunichila ni lulo nambo akuluŵika pachanya chindu chakuŵichila lumuli, kuti ŵakwinjila mwelemo akombole kulola lilanguka lyakwe.
No one, having lighted a lamp, putteth it in a cellar, nor under a bushel, but on a candlestick, in order that those coming in may see the light.
34 Lumuli lwa chiilu chenu luli liso lyenu, lyaŵaga lyansima, chiilu chenu chose chichiŵe mu lilanguka, nambo lyaŵaga ngaŵa lyansima, nombe chiilu chenu chichiŵe muchipi.
The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye may be clear, truly thy whole body is lighted; but when it may be had, truly thy body is dark.
35 Nlilolechesye yambone kuti lilanguka lyalili nkati mwenu likaika kugalauka kuŵa chipi.
See then that the light which is in thee is not darkness.
36 Nipele, iŵaga chiilu chenu chose chaŵaga ni lilanguka, pangali chiŵalo chachichiŵe pa chipi, chiilu cho chiching'alime yambone mpela lumuli lwalukuti pakunlanguchisya ni lilanguka lyakwe.”
If then thy whole body is lighted, having no part dark, all will be lighted, as when a lamp may light thee with its brightness.
37 Che Yesu paŵamasile kusala yeleyo, Mfalisayo jumo ŵaalaliche kumangwao kuti akalye nawo chakulya, nombewo ŵajinjile ni kutama kulya.
And while He was speaking, a Pharisee asked Him, that He would dine with him: and having come in, He sat up at the table.
38 Nambo Mfalisayo jo ŵansimosile Che Yesu kwawona alinkutama panganaŵa kaje chikanaŵe chakulya.
And the Pharisee seeing, was astonished because He was not first baptized before dinner.
39 Pele Ambuje ŵansalile, “Ŵanyamwe Mafalisayo, nkosya ngao ni mbale kwa paasa, nambo nkati mwenu ngumbele chigongomalo ni ungalimate.
And the Lord said to him, Now you Pharisees purify the outside of the cup and the plate, but the interior is full of extortion and wickedness.
40 Ŵakuloŵela ŵanyamwe! Ana, ngaŵa Akunnungu ŵaŵapanganyisye paasa ni ŵaŵapanganyisye nkati mo?
Ye fools, did not the One having made the outside also make the inside?
41 Nambo mwapeje ŵandu ŵakulaga indu yaili nkati ngao ni mbale ni indu ine yose chiiŵe yambone kukwenu.
Therefore give alms of your substance; and behold all things are pure unto you.
42 “Nambo ulaje uŵe kukwenu ŵanyamwe Mafalisayo, pakuŵa nkwausya liunjili lya kumi namose pachanya masamba ga kununjila ga mimela gakunonyesya chakulya ni mchicha ni masamba gane gane ni kuleka kwapanganyichisya ŵandu yaikuŵajilwa ni kwanonyela Akunnungu. Mwaŵajilwe kukamulisya yaandanda yo pangaliŵalila yaaŵili yo.
But woe unto you, Pharisees! because you tithe mint and rue and every herb, and you pass by judgment and the love of God: it behooveth to do these things, and not to omit those.
43 “Nambo ulaje uŵe kukwenu, ŵanyamwe Mafalisayo, pakuŵa ikunnonyela kutama mmbujo mu itengu ya achakulungwa mu mmajumba ga kupopelela ni kunkomasya kwa kuchimbichisya paŵachingangene ŵandu.
Woe unto you, Pharisees! because you love the front seat in the synagogues, and salutations in the forums.
44 Ulaje uŵe kukwenu, pakuŵa nkulandana ni malembe gangali chilosyo, ŵandu akupita pachanya pakwe, pangaimanyilila.”
Woe unto you! because you are like tombs unseen, and men walking over them do not know it.
45 Jumo jwa ŵamalamulo ŵajanjile, “Jwakwiganya, pankusala yelei ngati nkutujalusya nowe ŵakwe.”
And a certain one of the theologians responding says to Him, Teacher, speaking these things yon indeed insult us.
46 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ulaje uŵe kukwenu ŵanyamwe ŵakwiganya Malajisyo, pakuŵa nkwatwika ŵandu misigo jakutopela jangatwichilika ni mwachinsyene ngankujongola namose chala kwakamusya.
And He said, Woe unto you, theologians! because you lay burdens on the people difficult to be borne, and you yourselves do not touch the burdens with one of your fingers.
47 Ulaje uŵe kukwenu, pakuŵa nkugumba malembe ga ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu, ŵaŵaulajikwe ni achambuje ŵenu.
Woe unto you! because you build the sepulchers of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
48 Iyoyo peyo ŵanyamwe nkuŵalanga ni kwitichisya masengo ga achambuje ŵenu pakuŵa ŵelewo ŵauleje ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu ni ŵanyamwe nkugumba malembe gao.
Therefore you are witnesses and you consent unto the works of your fathers: because they slew them, and you build.
49 Ni kwaligongo lyo, lunda lwa Akunnungu lwatite, ‘Chinampe ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu ni achinduna, nambo ŵane mwa ŵanyawo chachaulaga ni ŵane ŵao chachalagasya.’
Therefore the wisdom of God said, I will send unto them prophets and apostles; and some of them they will slay and persecute.
50 Nipele uŵelesi uu chiuchilagaswa kwaligongo lya chiwa cha ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu ŵana wose ŵaŵaulegwe chitandile kupagwa chilambo,
In order that the blood of all the prophets poured out from the foundation of the world, may be required from this generation;
51 chitandile kuulagwa ku che Habili kwichila che Sakalia, juŵaulegwe pasikati ja chilisa ni Nyuumba ja Akunnungu. Eloo, ngunsalila kuti, au uŵelesi uu chiuchilagaswa kwa yele isambo yo.
from the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zachariah, who perished between the altar and the house; yea, I say unto you, it shall be required of this generation.
52 “Ulaje uŵe kukwenu ŵanyamwe ŵakwiganya Malajisyo pakuŵa njigele chiugulilo cha nnango wa umanyilisi ni mwachinsyene nganinjinjila ni ŵaŵajinjilaga mwelemo mwalekasisye kuti akajinjila.”
Woe unto you, theologians! because you have taken away the key of knowledge: you did not come in, and you prohibited those who were coming in.
53 Che Yesu ŵatyosile mwelemo, chitandile pelepo ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ni Mafalisayo ŵatandite kwachima kwannope ni kwausya mausyo gamajinji.
And He having come out from thence, the scribes and Pharisees began vehemently to press on Him, and mouth after Him concerning many things;
54 Ŵasakaga ŵatanjisye kwa maloŵe gao.
laying in wait, to catch something from His mouth.
