< Luka 16 >
1 Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao kuti, “Jwapali jwachipanje juŵakwete jwakwimilila ipanje yakwe. Jwachipanje ŵasalilwe kuti jwakwimililajo akonanga ipanje yenu.
He was saying now also to the disciples (of him: *k*) A man certain there was rich who had a manager, and he was accused unto him as wasting the possessions of him.
2 Nipele jwachipanje jo ŵambilasile ni kunsalila kuti, ‘Ana achi ni chichi chinguchipikana chachikungamba mmwejo? Mmalanje imwatite pakwimilila ipanje yangu yose, ligongo ngamma jwakwimilila ipanje yangu sooni’
And having called him he said to him; What [is] this I hear concerning you? do give the account of the stewardship of you; not for (you are able *N(k)O*) any longer to manage.
3 Jwakwimilila jula ŵaganisisye mu ntima mwakwe achitiji, ‘Ambuje ŵangu akuuminga masengo ga kwimilila ipanje yao, sambano chindende chichi? Ngangombola kulima ni kuŵa ŵakuŵendaŵenda ikundesya soni.
Said then within himself the manager; What shall I do, for the master of me is taking away the management from me? To dig not I am able, to beg I am ashamed.
4 Elo, nachimanyi chakutenda, kuti patachiminga masengo ga kwimilila ipanje ŵandu akombole kumbochela mmajumba gao.’
I know what I may do so that when I may have been removed (from *no*) the management they may receive me into the homes (of them. *NK(o)*)
5 “Nipele, ŵaaŵilasile ŵaali ni magambo wose ŵa ambujegwe jumo jumo, ŵambusisye jwaandanda, ‘Mwakongwele ilingwa kwa ambuje ŵangu?’
And having called to [him] one each of the debtors of the master his own he was saying to the first; How much owe you to the master of me?
6 Nombe ŵanjanjile ‘Mapipa mia moja ga mauta ga seituni’ Ni ŵansalile, ‘Ntole chikalata cha ligambo lyenu, ntame kwachitema ni kulemba mapipa ansini.’
(then *NK(o)*) he said; A hundred baths of oil. (then *N(k)O*) he said to him; do take your (the bills *N(k)O*) and having sat down soon do write fifty.
7 Nipele, ŵammusisye jwamagambo jwine kuti, ‘Nomweji mwakongwele ilingwa?’ Ŵatite, ‘Magunia mia tatu ga ngano.’ Ni ŵansalile, ‘Ntole chikalata cha ligambo lyenu ni kulemba kwachitema magunia mia mbili ni alobaini.’
Then to another he said; You yourself now how much owe? And he said; A hundred cors of wheat. (and *k*) He says to him; do take your (bills *N(k)O*) and do write eighty.
8 “Nambo mmbujegwe jula ŵannapile jwakwimilila ipanje yakwe jwangakukulupilichika jula ligongo ŵatesile mwakalamuka. Pakuŵa ŵandu ŵa pachilambo chi akalamwiche kwannope kwakupanganya indu yao ni achinjao kupunda ŵandu ŵaali mu Umwenye wa Akunnungu.” (aiōn )
And praised the master the manager unrighteous because shrewdly he had acted, For the sons of the age this more shrewd than the sons of the light in the generation their own are. (aiōn )
9 Nombe Che Yesu ŵapundile kuŵecheta, “None ngunsalila kuti ntende uganja ni ŵane kwa ipanje ya pachilambo kuti, ipanje pachiilepele kunkamusya mpochelwe mu utame wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (aiōnios )
and I myself to you say; for yourselves do make friends by the wealth of unrighteousness, that when (it may fail *N(K)O*) they may receive you into the eternal dwellings. (aiōnios )
10 Jwakukulupilichika mu yamwana nnope jwelejo akukulupilichika atamuno mu yeikulungwa nombeyo. Ni jwangakukulupilichika mu yamwana ngaakukulupilichika atamuno mu yeikulungwa nombeyo.
The [one] faithful with very little also with much faithful is, and the [one] with very little unrighteous also with much unrighteous is.
11 Nipele iŵaga ŵanyamwe ngankukulupilichika mu ipanje ya pachilambo ŵaani ŵachachimpa ipanje yaili isyene?
If therefore in the unrighteous wealth faithful not you have been, the true [riches] who to you will entrust?
12 Iŵaga ŵanyamwe ngankukulupilichika mu indu ya mundu jwine ana ŵaani ŵachampe yaili yenu mwachinsyene?
And if in that which [is] of another faithful not you have been, that which ([is] yours *NK(O)*) who to you will give
13 “Ngapagwa kapolo jwakukombola kwatumichila achambuje ŵaŵili, pakuŵa chanchime jumo ni kunnonyela jwine pane chanchimbichisye jumo ni kunnyelusya jwine. Ngankukombola kwatumichila Akunnungu akuno nchitumichilaga mbiya kwanakamo.”
No servant is able to two masters to serve; either for the one he will hate and the other he will love, or to one he will be devoted and the other he will despise. Not you are able God to serve and money.
14 Mafalisayo ŵakunonyelwa mbiya paŵagapilikene gelego ŵanyelwisye Che Yesu.
Were listening to now these things all (and *k*) the Pharisees lovers of money being and they were ridiculing Him.
15 Pelepo Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Mwanya nkuliŵalanjila nli ŵambone pa meeso pa ŵandu, nambo Akunnungu akujimanyilila mitima jenu. Pakuŵa chindu chachikuoneka chili chambone kwannope pa meeso pa ŵandu paujo pa Akunnungu chikuoneka chili chindu cha uchimwa.
And He said to them; You yourselves are those justifying themselves before men, but God knows the hearts of you for that which among men [is] exalted an abomination before God (is. *k*)
16 “Malajisyo ga che Musa ni malembelo ga ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu galiji ganinkulalichikwa mpaka paŵaiche che Yohana Ŵakubatisya. Chitandile kele katema Ngani Jambone ja Umwenye wa Akunnungu jikulalichikwa ni jwalijose akwinjila mwelemo kwa machili.
The law and the prophets [were] (until *N(k)O*) John; from that time the kingdom of God is evangelised [about], and everyone into it forces his way.
17 Nambo kwinani ni chilambo ikukomboleka kumala, kupunda kalembo kamo ka Malajisyo ga che Musa kutyosyekwa.
Easier for however it is the heaven and the earth to pass away than of the law one stroke of a pen to fail.
18 “Mundu jwalijose jwakulekangana ni ŵankwawo ni kulombela jwine akutenda chikululu ni jwakunnombela juŵalekangene ni ŵankwawo, akutenda chikululu.”
Everyone who is putting away the wife of him and marrying another commits adultery, And (everyone *k*) who separated her from a husband marrying commits adultery.
19 “Jwapali mundu jwachipanje juŵawalaga iwalo ya ndalama jekulungwa ni kupoka moŵa gose.
A man now certain there was rich and he was clothed in purple and fine linen making good cheer every day in splendor.
20 Paliji ni jwakulaga liina lyakwe che Lasalo juŵagumbele maŵanga pachiilu chose nombe ŵandu ŵane ŵagonekaga ŵelewo pannango wa nyuumba ja jwachipanje.
A poor man now certain (was *k*) named Lazarus (who *k*) had been laid at the gate of him full of sores
21 Che Lasalo ŵalajile apegwe mbakatika sisyagwaga pakulila pa jwachipanje jo ni kupunda yeleyo mbwa syaikaga kukulapita maŵanga gakwego.
and desiring to be fed from (crumbs *KO*) that falling from the table of the rich man; but even the dogs coming were licking the sores of him.
22 “Lyuŵa limo jwakulaga jo ŵawile ni achikatumetume ŵa kwinani ŵanjigele ni kummika chiŵandi ni che Iblahimu. Nombe jwachipanje jula ŵawile ni kusikwa.
It came to pass that then to die the poor man and to be carried away he by the angels into the bosom (*k*) of Abraham; Died then also the rich man and was buried.
23 Jwachipanje jo ŵalasile nnope kwiuto kwa ŵandu ŵawile ni ŵalolite kwinani ni kwaona che Iblahimu ali atemi pachiŵandi ni che Lasalo. (Hadēs )
And in Hades having lifted up the eyes of him, being in torment he sees (*k*) Abraham from afar and Lazarus in the bosom of him. (Hadēs )
24 Ŵanyanyisye achitiji, ‘Atati che Iblahimu, mungolele chanasa, mwalajisye che Lasalo kuti anyoye kumbesi kwa chala chakwe mmeesi ni asisimisye lulimi lwangu, pakuŵa ndili nkusauka nnope mu mooto wu.’
And he himself having cried out said; Father Abraham, do have mercy on me and do send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of the finger of him in water and may cool the tongue of mine, for I am suffering in flame this.
25 “Nambo che Iblahimu ŵajanjile, ‘Mwanangu, nkumbuchile kuti mmwe pamwaliji ni umi pachilambo mwamasile kupochela yambone yose iyammajile nombe che Lasalo ŵalasile. Nambo sambano akuno che Lasalo ali nkutuswa ntima ni mmwe ndi mkusauka.
Said then Abraham; Child, do remember that you did fully receive (you yourself *k*) the [things] good of you in the lifetime of you, and Lazarus likewise the [things] harmful. Now however (here *N(k)O*) he is comforted, you yourself now are suffering.
26 Kupunda yeleyi, pasikati jetu ni ŵanyamwe kwana lisimbo lyekulungwa pakuti ŵakusaka kutyoka akuno kwika kweleko anakombole ni anajomboche mundu jwakweleko kwika akuno.’
And (besides *N(k)O*) all these things between us and you a chasm great has been fixed so that those desiring to pass (from here *N(k)O*) to you not may be able nor (those *k*) from there to us they shall pass.
27 Pele jwachipanje jula ŵatite, ‘Ngunchondelela, atati che Iblahimu kuti munnajisye che Lasalo jo ajaule kwa achalongo ŵangu,
He said then; I implore you then father, that you may send him to the house of the father of mine —
28 ligongo ngwete achapwanga nsano, ajaule akaajamuche kuti nombewo anaiche peuto pamasausyo pano.
I have for five brothers — so that he may warn to them that not also they themselves may come to place this of torment.
29 “Nambo che Iblahimu ŵansalile, ‘Achapwenu akwete malembelo ga che Musa ni ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu mwaleche ŵapilikanile ŵelewo.’
Says (however *no*) (to him *ko*) Abraham; They have Moses and the prophets; they should listen to them.
30 Nambo jwachipanje jo ŵatite sooni, ‘Atati che Iblahimu ngaŵa yeleyo nambo iŵaga mundu jumo chasyuche ni kwajaulila, chaleche sambi syao.’
And he said; No, father Abraham, but if one from [the] dead shall go to them, they will repent.
31 Nombe che Iblahimu ŵatite, ‘Iŵaga ngakugapilikanichisya ni kugakulupilila malembelo ga che Musa ni ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu atamuno asyuche jwalijose ni kwajaulila ngakombola kwanyenga.’”
He said however to him; If to Moses and the prophets not they listen, (not even *N(k)O*) if one out from [the] dead shall rise will they be persuaded.
