Luka 17
1 Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao kuti, “Ngaikomboleka kuti ikatyochela yakunleŵesya ni kukola sambi nambo ulaje uŵe kwa jwakwikanawo yakuleŵesya.
Then he said to his disciples: It is impossible that causes of offense should not come; but alas for him by whom they come!
2 Ikaliji mbaya jwakwaleŵasya jo ataŵikwe lisyago pa lukosi ni kwaponya mu bahali kupunda kunsiŵilila jumo jwa achanandi ŵa.
It would be better for him that a millstone were hung about his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, than that he should cause one of these little ones to sin.
3 Nlilolechesye mwachinsyene! “Mpwenu aleŵaga, munjamuche, iŵaga chaleche sambi, munnechelesye.
Take heed to yourselves; if your brother sin against you, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him.
4 Atamuno anneŵelaga mala saba pa lyuŵa limo ni kuuja kukwenu mala saba achitiji, ‘Lesile sambi,’ nkusachilwa kunnechelesya.”
And if he sin against you seven times in a day, and seven times in a day turn again to you and say, I repent, you shall forgive him.
5 Achinduna ŵaasalile Ambuje Che Yesu kuti, “Ntujonjechesye chikulupi.”
And the apostles said to the Lord: Increase our faith.
6 Ambuje ŵajanjile, “Nkaakwete chikulupi atamuno chamwana chati mpela lusongolo lwamwana nnope mpela lwa haladali, nkakombwele kuchisalila chitela cha nkuju chi kuti, ‘Ntupuche nkalipandichisye mu bahali,’ nombecho chikajitichisye.
And the Lord said: If you had faith like a grain of mustard, you might say to this sycamine-tree, Be uprooted, and be planted in the sea, and it should obey you.
7 “Nambo jwapi mwa ŵanyamwe jwakwete kapolo jwakulima pane jwakuchinga ngondolo pakuuja kutyochela kungunda, akunsalila katema kakoko peko ‘Njise kwachitema, kundye chakulya’?
Which of you that has a servant plowing, or feeding a flock, will say to him immediately, when he comes in from the field, Go and recline at table?
8 Ngaŵa chansalile kuti, ‘Mungulumichisye chakulya, mmeje chile kwa kundumichila mpaka pachimalisye kulya ni kung'wa nomweji ni pachinlye ni kung'wa.’
But will he not say to him, Make ready my supper, and gird yourself, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunk; and afterward, you shall eat and drink?
9 Ana ngati ambuje chantogolele kapolo jo pakuŵa amasile kupanganya iŵalamulikwe yo?
Does he thank that servant, because he did what was commanded? I think not.
10 Iyoyo peyo ni ŵanyamwe pachimmale kupanganya yose iŵanlamulile yo, nsaleje kuti, ‘Uwe tuli achikapolo, tupanganyisye masengo agala pe gatuŵajilwe nago.’”
So also you, when you shall have done all things that you arc commanded to do, say, We are unprofitable servants; for we have done what was our duty to do.
11 Che Yesu paŵajaulaga ku Yelusalemu ŵajesile mumpika wa ku Samalia ni ku Galilaya.
And it came to pass, as he was journeying to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.
12 Paŵajinjilaga mu nsinda umo, ŵandu likumi ŵa matana ŵaichile Che Yesu ni kwima kwakutalichila.
And as he entered a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, who stood at a distance.
13 Ŵanyanyisye achitiji, “Che Yesu Ambuje, ntukolele chanasa!”
And they lifted up their voice, saying: Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.
14 Che Yesu paŵaweni ŵaasalile, “Njaulangane nkalilosye kwa ŵambopesi.” Nombe ŵanyawo paŵajaulaga kweleko, ŵaswejele.
And when he saw them, he said to them: Go, show yourselves to the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were made clean.
15 Jumo jwa ŵanyawo paŵaliweni kuti amasile kulamwa, ŵausile aninkwakusya Akunnungu achinyanyisyaga.
But, one of them, seeing that he was restored to health, turned back, and, with a loud voice, glorified God.
16 Ŵagwile manguku pa sajo si Che Yesu achatogolelaga. Mundu jo ŵaliji Msamalia.
And he fell on his face at his feet, and gave him thanks; and he was a Samaritan.
17 Nambo Che Yesu ŵausisye, “Ana ngati ŵaliji ŵandu likumi ŵaŵaswejeswe? Ali kwapi tisa ŵala?
And Jesus answered and said: Were not the ten cleansed? but where are the nine?
18 Ana ngapagwa ŵandu ŵane ŵausile kukwatogolela Akunnungu ikaŵe jwakwikape?”
Were there none found to return and give glory to God, but this one of another race?
19 Nombe Che Yesu ŵansalile mundu jo kuti, “Njimuche, njaule chikulupi chenu chinnamisye.”
And he said to him: Arise, and go; your faith has saved you.
20 Katema kampepe Mafalisayo ŵausisye Che Yesu kuti, “Ana Umwenye wa Akunnungu ukwika chakachi?” Nombewo ŵajanjile, “Umwenye wa Akunnungu ngaukwika kwakulolecheka.
And being asked by the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said: The kingdom of God comes not so as to attract attention;
21 Atamuno menema ngapagwa juchakombole kusala, ‘Nnole uli akuno,’ pane ‘Uli apala.’ Pakuŵa Umwenye wa Akunnungu uli pasikati jenu.”
nor shall it be said, Lo here! or Lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is among you.
22 Sooni, ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao kuti, “Gakwika moŵa pachinnajile kulola lyuŵa limo mwa moŵa ga Mwana jwa Mundu, nambo nganliona.
And he said to his disciples: The days will come, when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and shall not see it.
23 Ni ŵandu chachinsalila kuti, ‘Nnole, ali ako!’ Pane, ‘Nnole, ali akuno!’ Nambo ŵanyamwe nkatyoka atamuno kwakuya.
And they shall say to you, Lo here! or Lo there! go not after them, nor follow them.
24 Pakuŵa chiiŵe mpela njasi pajikumesya ni kuloleka kwiunde kose, iyoyo peyo ni ichichiŵa pa lyuŵa lya kwika kwakwe Mwana jwa Mundu.
For as the lightning that flashes out of one part under heaven, shines to another part under heaven, so shall the Son of man be in his day.
25 Nambo gakanaŵe gelego, akusachilwa asauche nnope ni kukanikwa ni ŵandu ŵa uŵelesi u.
But first he must suffer many things, and be rejected by this generation.
26 Mpela iyaliji pa moŵa ga che Nuhu ni iyoyopeyo ni ichichiŵa pa moŵa ga kwika Mwana jwa Mundu.
And as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
27 Ŵandu ŵalyaga ni kung'wa, ŵalombelaga ni kulombwa mpaka lyuŵa liŵajinjilaga che Nuhu mu ngalaŵa jekulungwa lila. Nipele jaiche ula jekulungwa nnope ni kwajonanga wose.
They ate, they drank, they married, they were given in marriage, till the day in which Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.
28 Iyoyopeyo ni ichiŵe mpela iyaliji pakutyochela pa moŵa ga che Lutu. Ŵandu ŵalyaga ni kung'wa, ŵasumisyaga ni kusuma, ŵapandaga mbeju ni kutaŵa majuumba.
In like manner also, as it was in the days of Lot: they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;
29 Nambo lyuŵa liŵakopweche che Lutu Msodoma lila, mooto ni chibiliti yatulwiche kutyochela kwinani nti ula ni kwaulaga wose.
but in the day in which Lot went out of Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.
30 Ilaila peila ni ichichiŵa pa lyuŵa lya kwika Mwana jwa Mundu.”
Even thus shall it be in the day in which the Son of man is revealed.
31 Ŵapundile kuŵecheta, “Lyele lyuŵa lyo, jwalijose juchaŵe paasa nyuumba kasajinjila kukujigala chipanje chakwe chachili mu nyuumba. Iyoyopeyo juchaŵe ku ngunda kasauja kukutola yailesile panyuma.
In that day, let not him that is on the house-top, and whose goods are in the house, come down to take them away. Likewise, he that is in the field, let him not turn back.
32 Nkumbuchile iyasimene ŵankwawo che Lutu.
Remember Lot’s wife.
33 Mundu jwalijose jwakusaka kuukulupusya umi wakwe, chaujase. Ni mundu jwalijose juchaujase umi wakwe, chaugose.
Whoever will seek to save his life, shall lose it; and whoever will lose his life, shall save it.
34 Ngunsalila kuti, chilo cho ŵandu ŵaŵili chagone pachindanda chimo, jumo chajigalikwe ni jwine chachilekwa.
I say to you, on that night two men shall be in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
35 Achakongwe ŵaŵili chachiŵa aninkusyaga pampepe, jumo chajigalikwe ni jwine chachilekwa.
Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
36 Ŵandu ŵaŵili chachiŵa mu ngunda umo, jumo chajigalikwe ni jwine chachilekwa.”
Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
37 Ŵakulijiganya ŵausisye kuti, “Ana kwapi Ambuje?” Nombe Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Kwauli ntembo kweleko ni kuchakasongangane achikapungu.”
And they answered and said to him. Where, Lord? And he said to them: Where the body is, there will the vultures be gathered.
