Luka 5
1 Lyuŵa limo Che Yesu ŵajimi mungulugulu litanda lya Genesaleti ni ŵandu ŵajinji ŵansyungwile ni kwaŵijikanya ali nkupilikanila liloŵe lya Akunnungu.
On one occasion, while Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret with the crowd pressing in on Him to hear the word of God,
2 Ŵasiweni ngalaŵa siŵili mungulugulu litanda ni ŵakukoka somba ali akopweche, ali nkusaula nyau syao.
He saw two boats at the edge of the lake. The fishermen had left them and were washing their nets.
3 Che Yesu ŵajinjile mu ngalaŵa jimo jijaliji ji che Simoni, ŵaaŵendile che Simoni ajisojechesye mmeesi, kwakutalichila kanandi kutyochela mungulugulu litanda. Ŵaujiganyisye mpingo wa ŵandu ali atemi mu ngalaŵa.
Jesus got into the boat belonging to Simon and asked him to put out a little from shore. And sitting down, He taught the people from the boat.
4 Paŵamasile kwiganya ŵaasalile che Simoni, “Njitute ngalaŵa kwaula pa meesi ga kwendesya mu litanda, nsiponye nyau syenu ni kukoka somba.”
When Jesus had finished speaking, He said to Simon, “Put out into deep water and let down your nets for a catch.”
5 Che Simoni ŵajanjile kuti, “Ambuje, tulajilile kukoka somba chilo chose pangapata chindu, nambo pakuŵa nsaasile chinasiponye nyau.”
“Master,” Simon replied, “we have worked hard all night without catching anything. But because You say so, I will let down the nets.”
6 Paŵapanganyisye yeleyo ŵakokwele somba syesijinji nnope ni nyau syao syatandite kukutuka.
When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to tear.
7 Ŵaaŵilasile achinjao ŵaŵaliji mu ngalaŵa jiine aichanje kukwakamusya. Ŵaiche ni ŵagumbesye somba ngalaŵa siŵili ni ngalaŵa syo syatandite kutitimila.
So they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.
8 Che Simoni Petulo paŵaiweni yeleyo, ŵatindiŵele paujo pa Che Yesu achitiji, “Ambuje, ntyoche paujo pangu pakuŵa uneji ndili mundu jwa sambi!”
When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees. “Go away from me, Lord,” he said, “for I am a sinful man.”
9 Che Simoni pamo ni achinjakwe ŵasimosile ligongo lya winji wa somba syapatile sila.
For he and his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken,
10 Iyoyo peyo che Yakobo ni che Yohana ŵanache ŵa che Sebedayo, ŵakukoka achinjakwe che Simoni nombewo ŵasimosile. Che Yesu ŵaasalile che Simoni, “Nkajogopa, kutandilila sambano chimme ŵakwaikanawo ŵandu kwa Ambuje.”
and so were his partners James and John, the sons of Zebedee. “Do not be afraid,” Jesus said to Simon. “From now on you will catch men.”
11 Nipele paŵamasile kusiichisya ngalaŵa sila mungulugulu litanda, ŵalesile yose ni ŵakuiye Che Yesu.
And when they had brought their boats ashore, they left everything and followed Him.
12 Che Yesu paŵaliji musi umo mu misi ja kweleko, paliji ni jwannume juŵaliji ni matana chiilu chose, nombejo paŵammweni Che Yesu ŵagonile manguku ni kwachondelela aninkuti, “Ambuje mwasakaga muswejesye.”
While Jesus was in one of the towns, a man came along who was covered with leprosy. When he saw Jesus, he fell facedown and begged Him, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”
13 Che Yesu ŵajongwele nkono ni ŵankwaiye ni kuti, “Ngusaka, nswejele!” Papopo mundu jo ŵalamile matana.
Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!” And immediately the leprosy left him.
14 Nombe Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Munansalile mundu jwalijose nambo njaule nkalilosye kwa jwambopesi, nkatyosye mbopesi kwa ligongo lya kuswejela kwenu mpela iŵatite pakusala che Musa uŵe umboni kuti nnamile.”
“Do not tell anyone,” Jesus instructed him. “But go, show yourself to the priest and present the offering Moses prescribed for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”
15 Nambo ngani syasikwagamba Che Yesu syapundile kwenela pana pose ni mipingo ja ŵandu jasongangene kukwapikanila ni kulamiswa ilwele yao.
But the news about Jesus spread all the more, and great crowds came to hear Him and to be healed of their sicknesses.
16 Nambo Che Yesu ŵalisapwile pajika pe ni kupopela.
Yet He frequently withdrew to the wilderness to pray.
17 Lyuŵa limo, Che Yesu ŵaliji nkwiganya, Mafalisayo ni ŵakwiganya malajisyo kutyochela misi jose ja ku Yudea ni ku Galilaya ni ku Yelusalemu ŵatemi papopo. Nipele machili ga Ambuje galiji pamo ni Che Yesu ligongo lya kwalamya ŵandu ŵa kulwala.
One day Jesus was teaching, and the Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there. People had come from Jerusalem and from every village of Galilee and Judea, and the power of the Lord was present for Him to heal the sick.
18 Ŵaiche ŵandu ŵampepe ali anjigele mundu jwakutatala ali agonile mu chitagala, ŵalinjile kwajinjisya nkati achisakaga kwaŵika paujo pa Che Yesu.
Just then some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They tried to bring him inside to set him before Jesus,
19 Nambo ŵalepele kwinjila nkati ligongo lya winji wa ŵandu. Nipele ŵakwesile pachanya nyuumba, ŵapowele chipagala ni kwatulusya pamo ni chitagala mbindikati ja ŵandu paujo pa Che Yesu.
but they could not find a way through the crowd. So they went up on the roof and lowered him on his mat through the tiles into the middle of the crowd, right in front of Jesus.
20 Nombe Che Yesu paŵachiweni chikulupi chao ŵansalile, “Ambusanga, nlecheleswe sambi syenu.”
When Jesus saw their faith, He said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”
21 Mafalisayo ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ŵatandite kuliusyanga achitiji, “Aŵa ni ŵaani ŵakwatukana Akunnungu? Ngapagwa mundu jwakukombola kulechelesya sambi ikaŵe Akunnungu pe!”
But the scribes and Pharisees began thinking to themselves, “Who is this man who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”
22 Nambo Che Yesu ŵasimanyi ng'anisyo syao ni ŵausisye kuti “Kwachichi nkuliusya yeleyi mmitima jenu?
Knowing what they were thinking, Jesus replied, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?
23 Chaapi chili chakwepepala nnope, kusala, ‘Sambi syenu silecheleswe,’ pane kusala, ‘Njimuche njaule?’
Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk?’
24 Nipele ngusaka mmanyilile kuti Mwana jwa Mundu akwete ulamusi wa kwalechelesya ŵandu sambi syao pachilambo pano.” Pelepo ŵansalile mundu jwakutatala jo, “Njimuche, njigale chitagala chenu, njaule kumangwenu.”
But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on the earth to forgive sins...” He said to the paralytic, “I tell you, get up, pick up your mat, and go home.”
25 Papopo mundu jula ŵajimwiche paujo pao ni kunyakula chitagala chao chiŵagonele ni kwaula kumangwao achakusyaga Akunnungu.
And immediately the man stood up before them, took what he had been lying on, and went home glorifying God.
26 Ŵanawose ŵasimosile ni kukamulwa ni lipamba, ŵaakusisye Akunnungu achitiji “Lelo tuiweni yakusimonjeka.”
Everyone was taken with amazement and glorified God. They were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things today.”
27 Paŵamasile gelego, Che Yesu ŵakopweche paasa ni ŵammweni mundu jumpepe jwakukumbikanya nsongo liina lyakwe che Lawi ali atemi mu nyuumba ja kulipila nsongo ni Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Munguye une!”
After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax booth. “Follow Me,” He told him,
28 Nombe che Lawi ŵajimi, ŵalesile yose ni kwakuya.
and Levi got up, left everything, and followed Him.
29 Che Lawi ŵaalaliche Che Yesu aiche kulya mu nyuumba jao. Mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakukumbikanya nsongo ni ŵandu ŵane ŵatemi kulya pamo nawo.
Then Levi hosted a great banquet for Jesus at his house. A large crowd of tax collectors was there, along with others who were eating with them.
30 Mafalisayo ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ŵaali mu mpingo wao ŵaalalamichile ŵakulijiganya ŵa Che Yesu aninkuti, “Kwachichi nkulya ni kung'wa pamo ni ŵakukumbikanya nsongo ni ŵaali ni sambi?”
But the Pharisees and their scribes complained to Jesus’ disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”
31 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ŵangakulwala ngakwalajila ŵantela ikaŵe ŵakulwala.
Jesus answered, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.
32 Nganiika kukwaŵilanga ŵandu ŵakupanganya yaili yambone paujo pa Akunnungu nambo ŵaali ni sambi kuti aleche sambi.”
I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”
33 Ŵandu ŵane ŵa mumpingo ula ŵaasalile Che Yesu, “Ŵakulijiganya ŵa che Yohana Ŵakubatisya akutaŵa kaŵilikaŵili ni kupopela ni ŵakulijiganya ŵa Mafalisayo akupanganya iyoyo peyo. Nambo ŵakulijiganya ŵenu akulya ni kung'wa.”
Then they said to Him, “John’s disciples and those of the Pharisees frequently fast and pray, but Yours keep on eating and drinking.”
34 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Uli, ana nkuganisya kuti nkukombola kwatendekasya achambusanga ŵa mlombela ataŵe akuno ali pamo nawo?
Jesus replied, “Can you make the guests of the bridegroom fast while He is with them?
35 Nambo chikaiche katema pachajigalikwe mlombela jo pasikati jao, gele moŵa go chachitaŵa.”
But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.”
36 Che Yesu ŵatanjile achi chitagu chi, “Ngapagwa mundu jwakupapula chigamba mu nguo jasambano ni kutotela mu nguo jewisale atamuno atendaga yeleyo chajijonanje nguo jasambano jo ni sooni, chele chigamba cha nguo jasambano cho ngachijilana ni jewisale jo.
He also told them a parable: “No one tears a piece of cloth from a new garment and sews it on an old one. If he does, he will tear the new garment as well, and the patch from the new will not match the old.
37 Sooni ngapagwa mundu jwakutaga divai jasambano mu misaku jewisale jekolochekwe ni mapende pakuŵa jele divai jasambano jo chijipapule misaku ni divai chijimwasiche ni misaku jo chijijonasiche.
And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the new wine will burst the skins, the wine will spill, and the wineskins will be ruined.
38 Nambo divai jasambano jikutajikwa mu misaku jasambano.
Instead, new wine is poured into new wineskins.
39 Ngapagwa jwakusaka kung'wa divai jasambano ali ang'wele jakalakala pakuŵa akuti, ‘Jele jakalakala jo ni jambone nnope.’”
And no one after drinking old wine wants new, for he says, ‘The old is better.’”
