< Luka 9 >
1 Che Yesu ŵaaŵilasile pamo ŵakulijiganya ŵao kumi na mbili, ŵapele machili ni ulamusi wa kugakoposya masoka gose ni kulamya ilwele.
And having called together His twelve disciples, He gave them power and authority over all the demons, and to cure diseases,
2 Ŵatumile ajaulangane kukwalalichila ŵandu Umwenye wa Akunnungu ni kwalamya ŵakulwala.
and He sent them to proclaim the Kingdom of God, and to heal the ailing.
3 Ŵasalile, “Nkajigala chindu chachili chose mulendo atamuno ntindiso atamuno nsaku atamuno chakulya atamuno mbiya atamuno iwalo iŵili.
And He said to them, “Take nothing for the way, neither staff, nor leather pouch, nor bread, nor money; neither have two coats each;
4 Nyuumba jajili jose jichinkajinjile ni kumpochela nlonjele pelepo, mpaka pachintyoche musi wo.
and into whatever house you may enter, remain there, and depart 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 as many as may not receive you, going forth from that city, even the dust from your feet shake off, for a testimony against them.”
6 Nipele, ŵatandite ulendo, ŵapitaga msinda ni msinda ŵalalichilaga Ngani Jambone ni kwalamya ŵakulwala pali pose.
And going forth they were going through the several villages, proclaiming good news, and healing everywhere.
7 Ni chilongola che Helode ŵapilikene indu yose iyatendekwe ni ŵakanganiche pakuŵa ŵane ŵatiji, “Che Yohana Ŵakubatisya ŵala asyuchile!”
And Herod the tetrarch heard of all the things being done by Him, and was perplexed, because it was said by some that John has been raised out of the dead,
8 Nambo ŵane ŵatiji che Elia ŵala atyochele ni ŵane ŵatiji kuti jumo jwakwe jwa ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu ŵakalakala asyuchile.
and by some that Elijah appeared, and by others, that a prophet, one of the ancients, was risen;
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, but who is this concerning whom I hear such things?” And he was seeking to see Him.
10 Achinduna ŵala paŵausile, ŵaŵalanjile Che Yesu yose yaitesile. Che Yesu ŵaajigele ŵanyawo, ŵajawile pajika mu musi waukuŵilanjikwa Besesaida.
And the apostles having turned back, declared to Him how they did great things, and having taken them, He withdrew by Himself into a city called 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.
and the multitudes having known followed Him, and having received them, He was speaking to them concerning the Kingdom of God, and He cured those having need of service.
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.”
And the day began to decline, and the Twelve having come near, said to Him, “Let away the multitude, that having gone into the surrounding villages and the fields, they may lodge and may find provision, because here we are in a desolate 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?”
And He said to them, “You give them to eat”; and they said, “We have no more than five loaves and two fishes: except, having gone, we may buy food for all this people”;
14 Ŵandu uŵaliji pepala, ŵaliji achalume mpela elufu tano. Nipele Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao kuti, “Mwatamiche paasi mipingo ja ŵandu mpela hansinihansini.”
for they were about five thousand men. And He said to His disciples, “Cause them to recline in companies, in each fifty”;
15 Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵatesile mpela iŵatite pakusalilwa ni ŵatamiche wose.
and they did so, and made all to recline;
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.
and having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, having looked up to the sky, He blessed them, and broke, and was giving to the disciples to set before the multitude;
17 Ŵandu wose ŵalile ni kwikuta. Ŵalokotenye isigasi ya mbakatika ni kugumbasya itundu kumi na mbili.
and they ate, and were all filled, and there was taken up what was over to them of broken pieces, twelve baskets.
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 came to pass, as He is praying alone, the disciples were with Him, and He questioned them, saying, “Who do the multitudes say 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.”
And they answering said, “John the Immerser; and others, Elijah; and others, that a prophet, one of the ancients, was risen”;
20 Pelepo ŵausisye ŵanyawo, “Nombe ŵanyamwe nkutinji une ndili ŵaani?” Che Petulo ŵajanjile, “Mmwejo ni Kilisito Nkulupusyo chilanga chiŵalanjile Akunnungu.”
and He said to them, “And you—who do you say I am?” And Peter answering said, “The Christ of God.”
21 Che Yesu ŵalamwile ŵanyawo ni kwakanya kuti akasala kwa mundu jwalijose jele ngani jo.
And having charged them, He commanded [them] to say this to no one,
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, “It is necessary for the Son of Man to suffer many things, and to be rejected by the elders, and chief priests, and scribes, and to be killed, and to be raised the third day.”
23 Nipele, ŵaasalile ŵandu wose kuti, “Mundu jwalijose jwakusaka kuunguya akusachilwa alikane nsyene ni atwichile nsalaba wakwe moŵa gose ni kunguya.
And He said to all, “If anyone wills to come after Me, let him disown himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me;
24 Pakuŵa jwalijose jwakusaka kuukulupusya umi wakwe chaujase ni jwalijose juchaujase umi wakwe ligongo lyangune, jwelejo chaukulupusye.
for whoever may will to save his life will lose it, and whoever may lose his life for My sake, he will save it;
25 Ana mundu chapate chichi, aŵaga ni ipanje yose ya pachilambo kwa kulijasa natamuno kulijonanga nsyene?
for what is a man profited, having gained the whole world, and having lost or having forfeited himself?
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 may be ashamed of Me and of My words, of this one will the Son of Man be ashamed when He may come in His glory, and the Father’s, and the holy messengers’;
27 Ngunsalila isyene kuti, apali ŵane mwa ŵanyaŵa ngaawa pangauwona Umwenye wa Akunnungu.”
and I say to you, truly, there are certain of those standing here who will not taste of death until they may 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 came to pass, after these words, as it were eight days, that having taken Peter, and John, and James, He went up to the mountain to pray,
29 Paŵaliji nkupopela, kuloleka kwa ku meeso kwao kwagalawiche ni iwalo yao yaliji yeswela ni kung'alima nnope.
and it came to pass, in His praying, the appearance of His face became altered, and His clothing became flashing white.
30 Papopo ŵandu ŵaŵili ŵaoneche aninkukunguluka nawo, nombe ŵandu wo ŵaliji che Elia ni che Musa,
And behold, two men were speaking together with Him, who were Moses and Elijah,
31 ŵaŵakopochele ali ni ukulu, uŵaŵechetaga nawo Che Yesu yankati ichiyaakopochele ku Yelusalemu ko kuti agumbalichisye yailembekwe nkati ŵelewo.
who having appeared in glory, spoke of His outgoing that He was about to fulfill in Jerusalem,
32 Che Petulo ni achinjakwe ŵatopelwe ni lugono, nambo paŵajimwiche, ŵauweni ukulu wa Che Yesu ni ŵandu ŵaŵili uŵajimi nawo.
but Peter and those with him were heavy with sleep, and having awoken, they saw His glory, and the two men 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 came to pass, in their parting from Him, Peter said to Jesus, “Master, it is good to us to be here; and we may make three shelters: one for You, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah,” not knowing what he says:
34 Che Petulo paŵaliji aninkuŵecheta yeleyo, liunde lyaichilile ni ŵakulijiganya ŵala ŵajogwepe pakuŵa liunde lyo lyaliji lininkwaichilila.
and as he was speaking these things, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them, and they feared in their entering into the cloud,
35 Lyakopochele liloŵe mwiunde mula, lichitiji, “Aju ni Mwanangu junansagwile, mumpilikanichisye.”
and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My Son, the Beloved; hear 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 when the voice was past, Jesus was found alone; and they were silent, and declared to no one in those days anything of what they have seen.
37 Malaŵi jakwe Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵatatu ŵala paŵaliji aninkutuluka mwitumbi, mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu ŵaichilile.
And it came to pass on the next day, they having come down from the mountain, a great multitude met Him there,
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 multitude cried out, saying, “Teacher, I implore You, look on my son, because he is my only begotten;
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 him, and suddenly he cries out, and it convulses him, with foaming, and it hardly departs from him, bruising him,
40 Nipele, nachondelele ŵakulijiganya ŵenu kuti akalityosye, nambo nganakombolanga.”
and I implored Your disciples that they might cast it out, and they were not able.”
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 Jesus answering said, “O generation, unsteadfast and perverse, until when will I be with you, and endure you? Bring your son near 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 is yet coming near, the demon threw him down, and convulsed [him], and Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the youth, and gave him back to his father.
43 Ŵandu wose ŵasimosile nnope kugalola machili gamakulungwa ga Akunnungu. Ŵandu ŵala paŵaliji nkusimonga yankati yose yaitesile, Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao,
And they were all amazed at the greatness of God, and while all are wondering at all things that Jesus did, He said to His disciples,
44 “Ngasinliŵalila chingusaka kuŵecheta ni ŵanyamwe chi, Mwana jwa Mundu chatagwe mmakono ga ŵandu.”
“Lay to your ears these words, for the Son of Man is about to be delivered up 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.
And they were not knowing this saying, and it was veiled from them, that they might not perceive it, and they were afraid to ask Him about this saying.
46 Gatyochele makani kwa ŵakulijiganya ŵala gati ŵaani ŵaali ŵakulungwa kupunda achinjakwe.
And there entered a reasoning among them, this—who may be greater of them.
47 Nambo Che Yesu ŵasimanyilile nganisyo sisyaliji mmitima jao nipele ŵanjigele mwanache jwannandi ni ŵanjimiche chiŵandika nawo,
And Jesus having seen the reasoning of their heart, having taken hold of a child, set 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 said to them, “Whoever may receive this child in My Name, receives Me, and whoever may receive Me, receives Him who sent Me, for he who is least among you all—he will be great.”
49 Che Yohana ŵaŵechete kuti, “Ambuje, tummweni mundu jumo achikoposyaga masoka mu liina lyenu nombe uweji twalinjile kunnekasya ligongo jwelejo nganaŵa jumo jwetu.”
And John answering said, “Master, we saw a certain one casting forth the demons in Your Name, and we forbade him, because 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 forbid, for he who is not against us, is for us.”
51 Nipele, pagaŵandichile moŵa ga Che Yesu kujigalikwa kwinani ŵasachile kwaula ku Yelusalemu.
And it came to pass, in the completing of the days of His being taken up, that He fixed His face to go on 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 having gone on, they went into a village of Samaritans, to make ready for Him,
53 Nambo ŵandu ŵa wele musi wo ŵakanile kumpochela ligongo ŵaimanyilile kuti ŵasachile kwaula ku Yelusalemu.
and they did not receive Him, because His face was going on to Jerusalem.
54 Katema ŵakulijiganya ŵakwe paŵaiweni yeleyo, che Yohana ni che Yakobo ŵatite, “Ambuje, ana nkusaka tuŵilasye mooto kutyochela kwinani kuti wajonanje ŵanyaŵa?”
And His disciples James and John having seen, said, “Lord, will You [that] we may command fire to come down from Heaven, and to consume them, as Elijah also did?”
55 Nambo Che Yesu ŵagalauchile ŵanyawo ni kwakalipila.
And having turned, He rebuked them and said, “You have not known of what spirit you are,
56 Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵatyosile ni kwaula kunsinda wine.
for the Son of Man did not come to destroy men’s lives, but to save”; and they went on to another village.
57 Paŵaliji mu ulendo, mundu jumpepe ŵansalile Che Yesu kuti, “Chinankuye kwakulikose kuchinjaule.”
And it came to pass, as they are going on in the way, a certain one said to Him, “I will follow You wherever You may go, Lord”;
58 Che Yesu ŵatite, “Macheto gakwete masomwa ni ijuni ikwete isusi, nambo Mwana jwa Mundu nganakola pagona ni kupumulila.”
and Jesus said to him, “The foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky places of rest, but the Son of Man has nowhere He may recline the head.”
59 Nipele, ŵansalile mundu jwine kuti, “Munguye.” Nambo jwelejo ŵatite, “Ambuje, muuneche kaje nyaule ngaasiche atati ŵangu.”
And He said to another, “Follow Me”; and he said, “Lord, permit me, having gone away, to first 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, “Permit the dead to bury their own dead, and you, having gone away, publish the Kingdom of God.”
61 Ni mundu jwine ŵansalile Che Yesu kuti, “Ambuje chinankuye, nambo muuneche kaje ngaalanje ŵaali kumusi kwangu ŵala.”
And another also said, “I will follow You, Lord, but first permit me to take leave of those in my house”;
62 Nambo Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Jwalijose jwakamwile lijela ni kotama kulima agalaukaga ni kulola panyuma, jwelejo ngakuŵajilwa mu Umwenye wa Akunnungu.”
and Jesus said to him, “No one having put his hand on a plow, and looking back, is fit for the Kingdom of God.”
