Luka 9
1 Che Yesu ŵaaŵilasile pamo ŵakulijiganya ŵao kumi na mbili, ŵapele machili ni ulamusi wa kugakoposya masoka gose ni kulamya ilwele.
Then calling together the twelve Apostles, he gave them power and authority over all demons and to cure diseases.
2 Ŵatumile ajaulangane kukwalalichila ŵandu Umwenye wa Akunnungu ni kwalamya ŵakulwala.
And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God and to heal the infirm.
3 Ŵasalile, “Nkajigala chindu chachili chose mulendo atamuno ntindiso atamuno nsaku atamuno chakulya atamuno mbiya atamuno iwalo iŵili.
And he said to them: “You should take nothing for the journey, neither staff, nor traveling bag, nor bread, nor money; and you should not have two tunics.
4 Nyuumba jajili jose jichinkajinjile ni kumpochela nlonjele pelepo, mpaka pachintyoche musi wo.
And into whatever house you shall enter, lodge there, and do not move away from there.
5 Ŵandu akanaga kumpochela, ntyochanje mu musi mo nombe ŵanyamwe pachintyoche nkung'unde luundu mmakongolo mwenu kulosya kuti achinsyene asagwile kuukana utenga wa Akunnungu.”
And whoever will not have received you, upon departing from that city, shake off even the dust on your feet, as a testimony against them.”
6 Nipele, ŵatandite ulendo, ŵapitaga msinda ni msinda ŵalalichilaga Ngani Jambone ni kwalamya ŵakulwala pali pose.
And going forth, they traveled around, through the towns, evangelizing and curing everywhere.
7 Ni chilongola che Helode ŵapilikene indu yose iyatendekwe ni ŵakanganiche pakuŵa ŵane ŵatiji, “Che Yohana Ŵakubatisya ŵala asyuchile!”
Now Herod the tetrarch heard about all the things that were being done by him, but he doubted, because it was said
8 Nambo ŵane ŵatiji che Elia ŵala atyochele ni ŵane ŵatiji kuti jumo jwakwe jwa ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu ŵakalakala asyuchile.
by some, “For John has risen from the dead,” yet truly, by others, “For Elijah has appeared,” and by still others, “For one of the prophets from of old has risen again.”
9 Nambo che Helode ŵatite, “Ŵele che Yohana wo ngati nakatile ntwe sambano ŵele ni ŵaani ungupilikana ngani syakwesi?” Nipele ŵansosaga kuti ŵawone.
And Herod said: “I beheaded John. So then, who is this, about whom I hear such things?” And he sought to see him.
10 Achinduna ŵala paŵausile, ŵaŵalanjile Che Yesu yose yaitesile. Che Yesu ŵaajigele ŵanyawo, ŵajawile pajika mu musi waukuŵilanjikwa Besesaida.
And when the Apostles returned, they explained to him all the things that they had done. And taking them with him, he withdrew to a deserted place apart, which belongs to Bethsaida.
11 Nambo mpingo wa ŵandu ula paŵaimanyi kuŵajawile, ŵakuiye. Nombe Che Yesu ŵapochele ni ŵaŵechete nawo ya umwenye wa Akunnungu ni kwalamya ŵaŵasachile kulamwa.
But when the crowd had realized this, they followed him. And he received them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God. And those who were in need of cures, he healed.
12 Lyuŵa palyatandite kutiŵila, ŵakulijiganya kumi na mbili ŵala ŵanjaulile Che Yesu kukwasalila kuti, “Mwalanje ŵandu ajaulangane mu misi ni migunda jakuŵandichila akasose yakulya ni pagona, pakuŵa patuli pa pali pajika.”
Then the day began to decline. And drawing near, the twelve said to him: “Dismiss the crowds, so that, by going into the surrounding towns and villages, they may separate and find food. For we are here in a deserted place.”
13 Nambo Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Ŵanyamwe mwape ŵanyawo chindu chakulya.” Nipele ŵajanjile, “Nganitukola yakupunda nambo tukwete mikate nsano ni somba siŵili pe. Panepa tujaule tukaasumile yakulya mpingo wose wu?”
But he said to them, “You give them something to eat.” And they said, “There is with us no more than five loaves and two fish, unless perhaps we are to go and buy food for this entire multitude.”
14 Ŵandu uŵaliji pepala, ŵaliji achalume mpela elufu tano. Nipele Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao kuti, “Mwatamiche paasi mipingo ja ŵandu mpela hansinihansini.”
Now there were about five thousand men. So he said to his disciples, “Have them recline to eat in groups of fifty.”
15 Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵatesile mpela iŵatite pakusalilwa ni ŵatamiche wose.
And they did so. And they caused them all to recline to eat.
16 Nipele Che Yesu ŵajigele mikate nsano jila ni somba siŵili sila ni ŵalolite kwinani ni kwatogolela Akunnungu ni kwipa upile ni kugaŵanya, ŵapele ŵakulijiganya ŵao kuti ŵapeleganye ŵandu.
Then, taking the five loaves and the two fish, he gazed up to heaven, and he blessed and broke and distributed them to his disciples, in order to set them before the crowd.
17 Ŵandu wose ŵalile ni kwikuta. Ŵalokotenye isigasi ya mbakatika ni kugumbasya itundu kumi na mbili.
And they all ate and were satisfied. And twelve baskets of fragments were taken up, which were left over from them.
18 Lyuŵa limo, Che Yesu ŵaliji nkupopela jika pe ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaliji pachiŵandi. Nipele ŵausisye ŵanyawo, “Ana ŵandu akuti une ndili ŵaani?”
And it happened that, when he was praying alone, his disciples also were with him, and he questioned them, saying: “Who do the multitudes say that I am?”
19 Ŵajanjile, “Ŵane akuti mmwejo ni che Yohana Ŵakubatisya ni ŵane akuti che Elia ni ŵane akuti jumo jwao ŵakulondola ŵakalakala ŵa Akunnungu asyuchile.”
But they answered by saying: “John the Baptist. But some say Elijah. Yet truly, others say that one of the prophets from before has risen again.”
20 Pelepo ŵausisye ŵanyawo, “Nombe ŵanyamwe nkutinji une ndili ŵaani?” Che Petulo ŵajanjile, “Mmwejo ni Kilisito Nkulupusyo chilanga chiŵalanjile Akunnungu.”
Then he said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” In response, Simon Peter said, “The Christ of God.”
21 Che Yesu ŵalamwile ŵanyawo ni kwakanya kuti akasala kwa mundu jwalijose jele ngani jo.
But speaking sharply to them, he instructed them not to tell this to anyone,
22 Ŵapundile kuŵecheta kuti Mwana jwa Mundu akusachilwa kulaga nnope ni kukanikwa ni achachekulu ni achakulu ŵambopesi ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ga che Musa ni kuulajikwa nambo lyuŵa lyaatatu lya chiwa chao chachisyuka.
saying, “For the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and the leaders of the priests and the scribes, and be killed, and on the third day rise again.”
23 Nipele, ŵaasalile ŵandu wose kuti, “Mundu jwalijose jwakusaka kuunguya akusachilwa alikane nsyene ni atwichile nsalaba wakwe moŵa gose ni kunguya.
Then he said to everyone: “If anyone is willing to come after me: let him deny himself, and take up his cross every day, and follow me.
24 Pakuŵa jwalijose jwakusaka kuukulupusya umi wakwe chaujase ni jwalijose juchaujase umi wakwe ligongo lyangune, jwelejo chaukulupusye.
For whoever will have saved his life, will lose it. Yet whoever will have lost his life for my sake, will save it.
25 Ana mundu chapate chichi, aŵaga ni ipanje yose ya pachilambo kwa kulijasa natamuno kulijonanga nsyene?
For how does it benefit a man, if he were to gain the whole world, yet lose himself, or cause himself harm?
26 Pakuŵa mundu jwalijose jutachingolela soni une ni majiganyo gangu, Mwana jwa Mundu tachinkolela soni mundu jo pachachiika mu ukulu wakwe ni wa Atati ni wa achikatumetume ŵa kwinani ŵaswela.
For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words: of him the Son of man will be ashamed, when he will have arrived in his majesty and that of his Father and of the holy Angels.
27 Ngunsalila isyene kuti, apali ŵane mwa ŵanyaŵa ngaawa pangauwona Umwenye wa Akunnungu.”
And yet, I tell you a truth: There are some standing here who shall not taste death, until they see the kingdom of God.”
28 Galiji moŵa nane paŵamasile kuŵecheta gelego, Che Yesu ŵaajigele che Petulo ni che Yohana ni che Yakobo, ŵakwesile nawo pa chitumbi kukupopela.
And it happened that, about eight days after these words, he took Peter and James and John, and he ascended onto a mountain, so that he might pray.
29 Paŵaliji nkupopela, kuloleka kwa ku meeso kwao kwagalawiche ni iwalo yao yaliji yeswela ni kung'alima nnope.
And while he was praying, the appearance of his countenance was altered, and his vestment became white and shining.
30 Papopo ŵandu ŵaŵili ŵaoneche aninkukunguluka nawo, nombe ŵandu wo ŵaliji che Elia ni che Musa,
And behold, two men were talking with him. And these were Moses and Elijah, appearing in majesty.
31 ŵaŵakopochele ali ni ukulu, uŵaŵechetaga nawo Che Yesu yankati ichiyaakopochele ku Yelusalemu ko kuti agumbalichisye yailembekwe nkati ŵelewo.
And they spoke of his departure, which he would accomplish at Jerusalem.
32 Che Petulo ni achinjakwe ŵatopelwe ni lugono, nambo paŵajimwiche, ŵauweni ukulu wa Che Yesu ni ŵandu ŵaŵili uŵajimi nawo.
Yet truly, Peter and those who were with him were weighed down by sleep. And becoming alert, they saw his majesty and the two men who were standing with him.
33 Ŵandu ŵaŵili wo paŵaliji aninkulekangana ni Che Yesu, che Petulo ŵaasalile Che Yesu, “Ambuje, ili yambone uwe kutama apano! Tutaŵe masakasa gatatu, limo lyenu ni limo li che Musa ni line li che Elia.” Nganaimanyililaga chaŵaŵechetaga cho.
And it happened that, as these were departing from him, Peter said to Jesus: “Teacher, it is good for us to be here. And so, let us make three tabernacles: one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” For he did not know what he was saying.
34 Che Petulo paŵaliji aninkuŵecheta yeleyo, liunde lyaichilile ni ŵakulijiganya ŵala ŵajogwepe pakuŵa liunde lyo lyaliji lininkwaichilila.
Then, as he was saying these things, a cloud came and overshadowed them. And as these were entering into the cloud, they were afraid.
35 Lyakopochele liloŵe mwiunde mula, lichitiji, “Aju ni Mwanangu junansagwile, mumpilikanichisye.”
And a voice came from the cloud, saying: “This is my beloved Son. Listen to him.”
36 Palyamasile kupilikanika liloŵe lyo, Che Yesu ŵaoneche ali jika pe. Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵamyalele ni nganansalila mundu jwalijose gele moŵa go yankati yele yose iŵaiweni yo.
And while the voice was being uttered, Jesus was found to be alone. And they were silent and told no one, in those days, any of these things, which they had seen.
37 Malaŵi jakwe Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵatatu ŵala paŵaliji aninkutuluka mwitumbi, mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu ŵaichilile.
But it happened on the following day that, as they were descending from the mountain, a great crowd met him.
38 Mundu jumo mu mpingo mwa ŵandu mula ŵanyanyisye achitiji, “Jwakwiganya, ngunchondelela munkolele chanasa mwanangu ju pakuŵa ali mwanangu jwa jika pe!
And behold, a man from the crowd cried out, saying, “Teacher, I beg you, look kindly on my son, for he is my only son.
39 Nnole lisoka lyakwe likusomoka ni chitema pe likuntenda agumile ni kuntaga njilinjili ni kunkopoka chiulo nkang'wa. Likupunda kunnagasya nnope ni ngalikunneka kwakwepepala.
And behold, a spirit takes hold of him, and he suddenly cries out, and it throws him down and convulses him, so that he foams. And though it tears him apart, it leaves him only with difficulty.
40 Nipele, nachondelele ŵakulijiganya ŵenu kuti akalityosye, nambo nganakombolanga.”
And I asked your disciples to cast him out, and they were unable.”
41 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ŵanyamwe uŵelesi wangali chikulupi, ni ŵakusochela, chindame ni ŵanyamwe ni kumpililila mpaka chaka chi?” Nipele, Che Yesu ŵansalile mundu jo kuti, “Munjise nawo apano mwanagwenu jo.”
And in response, Jesus said: “O unfaithful and perverse generation! How long will I be with you and endure you? Bring your son here.”
42 Katema jwele mwanache jo paŵaliji aninkwaichilila Che Yesu, lisoka lila lyangwisisye paasi ni kuntaga njilinjili. Nambo Che Yesu ŵalikalipile lisoka lila ni kunnamya mwanache ni kwauchisya atatigwe.
And as he was approaching him, the demon threw him down and convulsed him.
43 Ŵandu wose ŵasimosile nnope kugalola machili gamakulungwa ga Akunnungu. Ŵandu ŵala paŵaliji nkusimonga yankati yose yaitesile, Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao,
And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and he healed the boy, and he restored him to his father.
44 “Ngasinliŵalila chingusaka kuŵecheta ni ŵanyamwe chi, Mwana jwa Mundu chatagwe mmakono ga ŵandu.”
And all were astonished at the greatness of God. And as everyone was wondering over all that he was doing, he said to his disciples: “You must set these words in your hearts. For it shall be that the Son of man will be delivered into the hands of men.”
45 Nambo ŵanyawo nganagamanyilila malumbo ga maloŵe gaŵaŵechete. Lyele lyaliji lyakusisika kwa ŵanyawo kuti anamanyichisye, nombe ŵanyawo ŵajogwepe kwausya malumbo ga maloŵe go.
But they did not understand this word, and it was concealed from them, so that they did not perceive it. And they were afraid to question him about this word.
46 Gatyochele makani kwa ŵakulijiganya ŵala gati ŵaani ŵaali ŵakulungwa kupunda achinjakwe.
Now an idea entered into them, as to which of them was greater.
47 Nambo Che Yesu ŵasimanyilile nganisyo sisyaliji mmitima jao nipele ŵanjigele mwanache jwannandi ni ŵanjimiche chiŵandika nawo,
But Jesus, perceiving the thoughts of their hearts, took a child and stood him beside him.
48 ŵaasalile, “Mundu jwalijose jwakumpochela aju mwanache jwannandi ju kwa liina lyangu, jwelejo akumbochela une ni jwalijose jwakumbochela une, akumpochela jwelejo jwandumile une. Pakuŵa jwali jwannandi kupunda wose pasikati jenu, jwelejo ni jwali jwankulungwa.”
And he said to them: “Whoever will receive this child in my name, receives me; and whoever receives me, receives him who sent me. For whoever is the lesser among you all, the same is greater.”
49 Che Yohana ŵaŵechete kuti, “Ambuje, tummweni mundu jumo achikoposyaga masoka mu liina lyenu nombe uweji twalinjile kunnekasya ligongo jwelejo nganaŵa jumo jwetu.”
And responding, John said: “Teacher, we saw a certain one casting out demons in your name. And we prohibited him, for he does not follow with us.”
50 Nambo Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵanyawo kuti, “Nkannekasya, pakuŵa jwalijose jwangankanila ŵanyamwe, jwelejo ali pamo ni ŵanyamwe.”
And Jesus said to him: “Do not prohibit him. For whoever is not against you, is for you.”
51 Nipele, pagaŵandichile moŵa ga Che Yesu kujigalikwa kwinani ŵasachile kwaula ku Yelusalemu.
Now it happened that, while the days of his dissipation were being completed, he steadfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem.
52 Ŵatumile ŵantenga ŵalongolele, nombewo ŵajawile ni kwinjila mu musi umo wa Ŵasamalia kukuŵika chile indu yose kwa ligongo lyao.
And he sent messengers before his face. And going on, they entered into a city of the Samaritans, to prepare for him.
53 Nambo ŵandu ŵa wele musi wo ŵakanile kumpochela ligongo ŵaimanyilile kuti ŵasachile kwaula ku Yelusalemu.
And they would not receive him, because his face was going toward Jerusalem.
54 Katema ŵakulijiganya ŵakwe paŵaiweni yeleyo, che Yohana ni che Yakobo ŵatite, “Ambuje, ana nkusaka tuŵilasye mooto kutyochela kwinani kuti wajonanje ŵanyaŵa?”
And when his disciples, James and John, had seen this, they said, “Lord, do you want us to call for fire to descend from heaven and consume them?”
55 Nambo Che Yesu ŵagalauchile ŵanyawo ni kwakalipila.
And turning, he rebuked them, saying: “Do you not know of whose spirit you are?
56 Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵatyosile ni kwaula kunsinda wine.
The Son of man came, not to destroy lives, but to save them.” And they went into another town.
57 Paŵaliji mu ulendo, mundu jumpepe ŵansalile Che Yesu kuti, “Chinankuye kwakulikose kuchinjaule.”
And it happened that, as they were walking along the way, someone said to him, “I will follow you, wherever you will go.”
58 Che Yesu ŵatite, “Macheto gakwete masomwa ni ijuni ikwete isusi, nambo Mwana jwa Mundu nganakola pagona ni kupumulila.”
Jesus said to him: “Foxes have dens, and the birds of the air have nests. But the Son of man has nowhere to lay his head.”
59 Nipele, ŵansalile mundu jwine kuti, “Munguye.” Nambo jwelejo ŵatite, “Ambuje, muuneche kaje nyaule ngaasiche atati ŵangu.”
Then he said to another, “Follow me.” But he said, “Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father.”
60 Nambo Che Yesu ŵansalile jwelejo kuti, “Mwaleche ŵawe ŵaasiche ŵawe ŵao, nambo mmwejo njaule nkalalichile ngani ja Umwenye wa Akunnungu.”
And Jesus said to him: “Let the dead bury their dead. But you go and announce the kingdom of God.”
61 Ni mundu jwine ŵansalile Che Yesu kuti, “Ambuje chinankuye, nambo muuneche kaje ngaalanje ŵaali kumusi kwangu ŵala.”
And another said: “I will follow you, Lord. But permit me first to explain this to those of my house.”
62 Nambo Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Jwalijose jwakamwile lijela ni kotama kulima agalaukaga ni kulola panyuma, jwelejo ngakuŵajilwa mu Umwenye wa Akunnungu.”
Jesus said to him, “No one who puts his hand to the plow, and then looks back, is fit for the kingdom of God.”
