< Luka 9 >

1 Che Yesu ŵaaŵilasile pamo ŵakulijiganya ŵao kumi na mbili, ŵapele machili ni ulamusi wa kugakoposya masoka gose ni kulamya ilwele.
Then he called his twelve disciples together, and 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 sick.
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 [your] journey, neither staffs, nor bag, neither bread, neither money; neither have two coats apiece.
4 Nyuumba jajili jose jichinkajinjile ni kumpochela nlonjele pelepo, mpaka pachintyoche musi wo.
And into whatever house ye enter, there abide, and thence depart.
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 receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.
6 Nipele, ŵatandite ulendo, ŵapitaga msinda ni msinda ŵalalichilaga Ngani Jambone ni kwalamya ŵakulwala pali pose.
And they departed, and went through the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing every where.
7 Ni chilongola che Helode ŵapilikene indu yose iyatendekwe ni ŵakanganiche pakuŵa ŵane ŵatiji, “Che Yohana Ŵakubatisya ŵala asyuchile!”
Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by him: and he was perplexed, because that it was said by some, that John had risen from 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 had appeared; and by others, that one of the ancient prophets had 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, John have I beheaded; but who is this of whom I hear such things? And he desired 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, when they had returned, told him all that they had done. And he took them, and went aside privately into a desert place, belonging to the 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 people, when they knew [it], followed him: and he received them, and spoke to them of the kingdom of God, and healed them that had need of healing.
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 when the day began to decline, then came the twelve, and said to him, Send the multitude away, that they may go into the towns and country around, and lodge, and get victuals: for we are here in a desert 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, Give ye them to eat. And they said, We have no more than five loaves and two fishes; except we should go and buy provisions 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, Make them sit down by fifties in a company.
15 Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵatesile mpela iŵatite pakusalilwa ni ŵatamiche wose.
And they did so, and made them all sit down.
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 he took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed them, and broke, and gave 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 satisfied: and there was taken up of fragments that remained to them, 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 was in retirement praying, his disciples were with him; and he asked them, saying, Who say the people 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.”
They answering, said, John the Baptist; but some [say], Elijah; and others [say], that one of the ancient prophets is risen again.
20 Pelepo ŵausisye ŵanyawo, “Nombe ŵanyamwe nkutinji une ndili ŵaani?” Che Petulo ŵajanjile, “Mmwejo ni Kilisito Nkulupusyo chilanga chiŵalanjile Akunnungu.”
He said to them, But who say ye that I am? Peter answering, said, Christ of God.
21 Che Yesu ŵalamwile ŵanyawo ni kwakanya kuti akasala kwa mundu jwalijose jele ngani jo.
And he strictly charged them, and commanded [them] to tell no man that thing,
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, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, and chief priests, and scribes, and be put to death, and 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 [them] all, If any [man] will come after me, let him deny 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 will save his life, shall lose it: but whoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.
25 Ana mundu chapate chichi, aŵaga ni ipanje yose ya pachilambo kwa kulijasa natamuno kulijonanga nsyene?
For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?
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 shall be ashamed of me, and of my words, of him will the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and [in that of his] Father, and of the holy angels.
27 Ngunsalila isyene kuti, apali ŵane mwa ŵanyaŵa ngaawa pangauwona Umwenye wa Akunnungu.”
But I tell you in truth, there are some standing here who shall not taste death till 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 came to pass, about eight days after these sayings, he took Peter, and John, and James, and went up upon a mountain to pray.
29 Paŵaliji nkupopela, kuloleka kwa ku meeso kwao kwagalawiche ni iwalo yao yaliji yeswela ni kung'alima nnope.
And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment [was] white [and] glistening.
30 Papopo ŵandu ŵaŵili ŵaoneche aninkukunguluka nawo, nombe ŵandu wo ŵaliji che Elia ni che Musa,
And behold, there talked with him two men, 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 appeared in glory, and spoke of his decease which he should accomplish at Jerusalem.
32 Che Petulo ni achinjakwe ŵatopelwe ni lugono, nambo paŵajimwiche, ŵauweni ukulu wa Che Yesu ni ŵandu ŵaŵili uŵajimi nawo.
But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: and when they were awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood 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, as they departed from him, Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah: not knowing what he said.
34 Che Petulo paŵaliji aninkuŵecheta yeleyo, liunde lyaichilile ni ŵakulijiganya ŵala ŵajogwepe pakuŵa liunde lyo lyaliji lininkwaichilila.
While he was thus speaking, there came a cloud and overshadowed them: and they feared as they entered into the cloud.
35 Lyakopochele liloŵe mwiunde mula, lichitiji, “Aju ni Mwanangu junansagwile, mumpilikanichisye.”
And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: 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 kept [it] close, and told no man in those days any of those things which they had seen.
37 Malaŵi jakwe Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵatatu ŵala paŵaliji aninkutuluka mwitumbi, mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu ŵaichilile.
And it came to pass, that on the next day, when they had come down from the hill, many people 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 of the company cried out, saying, Master, I beseech thee look upon my son: for he is my only child.
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 lo, a spirit taketh him, and he suddenly crieth out; and it teareth him that he foameth, and bruising him, hardly departeth from him.
40 Nipele, nachondelele ŵakulijiganya ŵenu kuti akalityosye, nambo nganakombolanga.”
And I besought thy disciples to cast him out, and they could not.
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 faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and suffer you? Bring thy son hither.
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 yet coming, the demon threw him down, and tore [him]. And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child, and delivered him again 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 mighty power of God. But while they were all wondering at all things which Jesus did, he said to his disciples,
44 “Ngasinliŵalila chingusaka kuŵecheta ni ŵanyamwe chi, Mwana jwa Mundu chatagwe mmakono ga ŵandu.”
Let these sayings sink down into your ears: for 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 understood not this saying, and it was hid from them, that they perceived it not: and they feared to ask him concerning that saying.
46 Gatyochele makani kwa ŵakulijiganya ŵala gati ŵaani ŵaali ŵakulungwa kupunda achinjakwe.
Then there arose a reasoning among them, which of them should be greatest.
47 Nambo Che Yesu ŵasimanyilile nganisyo sisyaliji mmitima jao nipele ŵanjigele mwanache jwannandi ni ŵanjimiche chiŵandika nawo,
And Jesus perceiving the thought of their heart, took a child, and set him by 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 shall receive this child in my name, receiveth me; and whoever shall receive me, receiveth him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same shall 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 answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out demons in thy name; and we forbad him, because he followeth not with us.
50 Nambo Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵanyawo kuti, “Nkannekasya, pakuŵa jwalijose jwangankanila ŵanyamwe, jwelejo ali pamo ni ŵanyamwe.”
And Jesus said to him, Forbid [him] not: for he that 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, when the time was come that he should be received up, 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 sent messengers before his face: and they went and entered into a village of the 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 as though he would go 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 when his disciples James and John saw [this], they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elijah did?
55 Nambo Che Yesu ŵagalauchile ŵanyawo ni kwakalipila.
But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of.
56 Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵatyosile ni kwaula kunsinda wine.
For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save [them]. And they went to another village.
57 Paŵaliji mu ulendo, mundu jumpepe ŵansalile Che Yesu kuti, “Chinankuye kwakulikose kuchinjaule.”
And it came to pass, that as they were going in the way, a certain [man] said to him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.
58 Che Yesu ŵatite, “Macheto gakwete masomwa ni ijuni ikwete isusi, nambo Mwana jwa Mundu nganakola pagona ni kupumulila.”
And Jesus said to him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air [have] nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay [his] 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. But he said, Lord, suffer 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.”
Jesus said to him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach 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, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go [and] bid them farewell who are at 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 man having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.
