Luka 4
1 Che Yesu ŵatyosile mu lusulo lwa Yolodani ali aguumbele Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ni ŵalongweswe ni Mbumu kwaula mwipululu.
Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan River and was led by the Spirit into the desert,
2 Kweleko ŵalinjikwe ni Shetani kwa moŵa alobaini. Katema kose ko, nganalya chachili chose ni pagamasile moŵa go, jakwete sala.
where he was tempted by the devil for forty days. He didn't eat anything during that whole time, so at the end he was starving.
3 Shetani ŵaasalile, “Iŵaga mmwejo ni Mwana jwa Akunnungu, nlisalile ali liganga li ligalauche liŵe nkate.”
The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.”
4 Che Yesu ŵaajanjile, “Ilembekwe mu Malembelo ga Akunnungu, ‘Mundu ngakulama kwa kulya nkate pe.’”
“It is written in Scripture, ‘You shall not live on bread alone,’” Jesus answered.
5 Shetani ŵankwesisye Che Yesu kwinani ni kunlosya kwanakamo mwenye syose sya pa chilambo.
The devil led him up to a high place, and in a rapid view showed him all the kingdoms of the world.
6 Shetani ŵansalile Che Yesu kuti, “Chinampe ulamusi wa ipanje yose ni ukulu wakwe, pakuŵa yose yi ambele une, ngukombola kumpa mundu jwalijose jungunsaka.
Then the devil said to Jesus, “I will give you authority over all of them, and their glory. This authority has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want.
7 Ni yose yi chinampe ni kuŵa yenu iŵaga chimundindiŵalile ni kumbopelela.”
Bow down and worship me and you can have it all.”
8 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ilembekwe mu Malembelo ga Akunnungu, ‘Chimwatindiŵalile Ambuje Akunnungu ŵenu ni kwapopelela ŵawowo pewo.’”
“It is written in Scripture, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve only him,’” Jesus replied.
9 Shetani ŵanjigele Che Yesu mpaka ku Yelusalemu ni ŵanjimiche penani pa lusonga lwa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu ni kwasalila kuti “Iŵaga mmwejo nli Mwana jwa Akunnungu, nlipatusye paasi.
The devil took Jesus to Jerusalem, set him on the top of the Temple, and told him, “If you are the Son of God, then jump!
10 Pakuŵa ilembekwe, ‘Chachatuma achikatumetume ŵao ŵa kwinani angose.’
For it is written in Scripture, ‘He will order his angels to care for you,
11 Ni sooni, ‘Channyakule mmakono mwao, ntakuligomba lukongolo lwenu paliganga.’”
holding you up to protect you from stumbling over a stone.’”
12 Nambo Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ilembekwe mu Malembelo ga Akunnungu, ‘Kasimwalinga Ambuje Akunnungu ŵenu.’”
“It is written in Scripture, ‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God,’” Jesus replied.
13 Shetani paŵamasile kwalinga ŵannesile kwa katema.
When the devil had completed all his temptations, he waited for another opportunity.
14 Che Yesu ŵausile ku chilambo cha ku Galilaya achilongoswaga ni machili ga Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ni ngani syao syajenele mu Galilaya ni mu misi jose jajiŵandikene.
Jesus returned to Galilee, full of the Spirit's power. News about him spread everywhere.
15 Nombe ŵaliji nkwajiganya ŵandu mu majumba gao ga kupopelela ni wose ŵaliji nkwalapa ŵelewo.
Jesus taught in their synagogues, and everyone praised him.
16 Che Yesu ŵajawile ku Nasaleti, musi wawakulile ni Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila, ŵajinjile mu nyuumba ja kupopelela mpela iyatite pakuŵa chisyoŵelo. Ŵajimi kuti agasyome Malembelo ga Akunnungu.
When he arrived in Nazareth, where he had grown up, he went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day as usual.
17 Ŵapochele chitabu chi che Isaya jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu ni ŵaunukwile, ŵasosile ni kupasimana papalembekwe yati
The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Jesus unrolled the scroll and found the place where it's written:
18 “Mbumu jwa Ambuje ali pamo ni une, pakuŵa asagwile kuti nalichile Ngani Jambone kwa ŵandu ŵakulaga. Andumile kukwatangachisya ŵataŵikwe kugopolekwa kwao, ni ŵangalola akombole kulola, ni kukwawombola ŵakukotochelwa.
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, for he has anointed me to announce good news to the destitute. He has sent me to proclaim that prisoners will be released, the blind will see, the oppressed will be freed,
19 Ni kwenesya chaka cha Ambuje chakulosya umbone kwa ŵandu ŵakwe.”
and to proclaim the time of the Lord's favor.”
20 Nipele ŵaunichile chitabu chila ni ŵampele katumetume, ŵatemi ni ŵandu wose ŵaŵaliji mu nyuumba ja kupopelela ŵannolechesye kwa nnope.
He rolled up the scroll and gave it back to the attendant. Then he sat down. Everybody in the synagogue was staring at him.
21 Nombewo ŵaasalile, “Lelo Malembelo ga Akunnungu ga gaŵele isyene pamumbilikene ndi ngusyoma.”
“This Scripture you've just heard has been fulfilled today!” he told them.
22 Wose ŵanonyelwe nawo ni ŵagasimosile maloŵe gambone gaŵaŵechete. Ŵausyanaga, “Ana, aju ngaŵa mwana ju che Yusufu?”
Everybody expressed their approval of him, amazed at the gracious words that came from his lips. “Isn't this Joseph's son?” they wondered.
23 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Ngumanyilila chimusalile chitagu chi, ‘Jwantela nlilamye mwasyene.’ Ni sooni chinchiti, ‘Ituipilikene kuti mpanganyisye ku Kapelenaumu mpanganye nombe pamusi pano.’”
Jesus replied, “I'm sure you'll repeat this proverb to me, ‘Physician, heal yourself!’ and ask, ‘Why don't you do here in your own hometown what we heard you did in Capernaum?’
24 Ŵapundile kuŵecheta, “Ngunsalila isyene, ngapagwa jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu jwakukundikwa mu chilambo chakwe.
But I tell you the truth, no prophet is accepted in his hometown.
25 Nambo mpilikane! Isyene ngunsalila ŵapali achakongwe ŵakuwililwa ni achiŵankwawo ŵajinji mu chilambo cha Isilaeli katema ka che Elia. Kele katema ko nganijinyaga ula kwa yaka itatu ni miesi sita ni kwaliji ni sala jekulungwa pa chilambo chose.
I guarantee that there were many widows in Israel during the time of Elijah when there was a drought for three and a half years, causing a great famine throughout the country.
26 Namose yeleyo che Elia nganalajiswa kwa jwalijose jwakuwililwa ni ŵankwakwe ikaŵe kwa jwankongwe jwa kuwililwa jwa ku Salepita chilambo cha ku Sidoni.
Yet Elijah wasn't sent to any of them. He was sent to a widow in Zarephath in the region of Sidon!
27 Ni sooni paliji ni ŵamatana ŵajinji chilambo cha ku Isilaeli katema ka jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu che Elisha. Nipele, nganapagwa jwalijose juŵaswejele ikaŵe che Naamani pe jwa ku Silia.”
Even though there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha, the only one who was healed was Naaman the Syrian!”
28 Wose ŵaŵaliji mu nyuumba ja kupopelela jila paŵapikene yeleyo ŵatumbile nnope.
When they heard this everyone in the synagogue became furious.
29 Ŵajimi ni kwatyosya paasa musi wao wautaŵikwe pachanya chitumbi ni ŵampeleche mungulugulu chitumbi akombole kwatutila paasi.
They jumped to their feet and threw him out of the town. Then they dragged him to the top of the hill on which the town was built in order to throw him off the cliff.
30 Nambo Che Yesu ŵapelete mbindikati jao ni kwaula.
But he walked right through them and went on his way.
31 Che Yesu ŵajawile ku Kapelenaumu chilambo cha ku Galilaya ni kwajiganya ŵandu pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila.
Jesus went down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee. On Sabbath he started teaching them.
32 Ŵasimosile majiganyo gao pakuŵa utenga wao waliji ni ulamusi.
They were amazed at what he taught them for he spoke with authority.
33 Ni mu nyuumba ja kupopelela jila mwaliji ni mundu juŵaliji ni lisoka, ŵanyanyisye achitiji,
In the synagogue there was a man who was possessed by a demon. He cried out,
34 “Okwe, Che Yesu jwa ku Nasaleti nkwete ichichi nowe? Ana nnyiche kukutujonanga? Ngummanyilila kuti mmwe nli ŵaani, mmwejo ni Ŵaswela ŵa Akunnungu!”
“So, what do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are: God's Holy One!”
35 Che Yesu ŵalikalipile lisoka achitiji, “Mmyalale! Munkopoche mundu ju!” Nipele lisoka lyo lyangwisisye mundu jo paujo pa ŵandu ni kunkopoka pangampoteka.
Jesus interrupted him, saying. “Be quiet!” Then he ordered the demon, “Come out of him!” Throwing him to the ground right before them, the demon left the man without injuring him.
36 Ŵandu wose ŵasimosile ni kuŵechetesyana, “Gelega gali majiganyo chi? Mundu ju akwete ulamusi ni machili ga kugasalila masoka gakopoche nombego gakukopoka!”
They were all amazed and asked each other, “What is this teaching? With power and authority he orders evil spirits to leave—and they do!”
37 Ngani si Che Yesu syajenele panapose pachilambo pala.
News about Jesus spread throughout the nearby region.
38 Che Yesu ŵakopweche mu nyuumba ja kupopelela jila ni kwaula kumusi ku che Simoni. Ŵaŵendile kuti ŵalamye akwegwao che Simoni pakuŵa ŵalwalaga chiboko.
Leaving the synagogue, Jesus went to Simon's house. Simon's mother-in-law was sick with a high fever and those who were there asked Jesus to help.
39 Nipele Che Yesu ŵaiche ni kwajinamila, ŵachikalipile chiboko nombecho channesile, papopo jwankongwe jo ŵajimwiche ni kwatelechela.
Jesus went and stood over her. He told the fever to leave her—which it did. She got up right away and prepared a meal for them.
40 Palyaiche ligulo, ŵandu wose ŵaŵalwalaga ilwele yakupisyangana ŵaichisye ku Che Yesu nombewo ŵasajiche makono gao pa kila jumo ni kwalamya.
When the sun set, they brought to him all who were sick, suffering from various diseases. Jesus placed his hands on them, one after the other, and he healed them.
41 Nombe masoka gaakopweche ŵandu ŵajinji, ganyanyisye gachitiji, “Alakwe nli Mwana jwa Akunnungu!” Nambo Che Yesu nganagalechelela gaŵechete, pakuŵa gaamanyilile kuti ŵelewo ali Kilisito Nkulupusyo.
Demons came out of many people, shouting, “You are the Son of God.” But Jesus stopped them and refused to let them speak because they knew he was the Christ.
42 Kundaŵi jakwe, Che Yesu ŵajawile pachisyepela. Ŵandu ŵala ŵaliji nkwasosasosa. Paŵaichilile paŵaliji ŵalinjile kunsiŵila kuti anatyoche.
Early the following morning Jesus left to find some peace and quiet. But the crowds went out looking for him, and finally found him. They tried to stop him leaving because they did not want him to go.
43 Nambo ŵelewo ŵaasalile kuti, “Ngusachilwa kulalichila Ngani Jambone ja umwenye wa Akunnungu mu misi jine nombe pakuŵa ndumigwe kwa ligongo lyo.”
But he told them, “I have to go to other towns to tell them the good news of the kingdom of God too, because that is what I was sent to do.”
44 Ŵapundile kulalichila Ngani Jambone mmajumba ga kupopelela ga ku Yudea.
So Jesus went on traveling around, teaching the good news in the synagogues of Judea.
