Maliko 1
1 Jeleji jili ndande ja Ngani Jambone ji Che Yesu Kilisito, Mwana jwa Akunnungu.
The beginning of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
2 Mpela ijitite pakulembekwa mmalembo ga che Isaya juŵaliji jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu, “Akunnungu ŵatite, ‘Nguntuma jwantenga jwangu annongolele, jwejejo ni juchankolochesye litala lyenu.’
As it has been written by the prophet Isaiah: “Behold, I send my Angel before your face, who shall prepare your way before you.
3 Mundu akunyanyisya mwipululu achitiji, ‘Mwakolochesye Ambuje litala lyao, ngolosye mwakusaka kupita.’”
The voice of one crying out in the desert: Prepare the way of the Lord; make straight his paths.”
4 Che Yohana Ŵakubatisya ŵatamaga mwipululu ni kwalalichila ŵandu aleche sambi ni kwabatisya kuti Akunnungu ŵalechelesye sambi syao.
John was in the desert, baptizing and preaching a baptism of repentance, as a remission of sins.
5 Ŵandu achajinji kutyochela chilambo cha Ŵayahudi ni musi wa ku Yelusalemu wose ŵajawile kukwapikanila che Yohana, ŵajitichisye sambi syao nombejo ŵabatisye mu lusulo lwa Yolodani.
And there went out to him all the region of Judea and all those of Jerusalem, and they were baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
6 Che Yohana ŵaliji awasile mwinjilo uwapotekwe ni manyunya ga chinyama chachikuŵilanjikwa ngamia ni nkaanda wa lipende nchiunu. Nombejo ŵalyaga itete ni uchi.
And John was clothed with camel’s hair and with a leather belt around his waist. And he ate locusts and wild honey.
7 Ni ŵalalichilaga kwa ŵandu kuti, “Panyuma pangu akwika jwali ni machili kumbunda une. None nganguŵajilwa namose kukotama ni kugopola ngoji sya italawanda yakwe.
And he preached, saying: “One stronger than me comes after me. I am not worthy to reach down and loosen the laces of his shoes.
8 Uneji ngumbatisya ni meesi, nambo jwelejo chaachimbatisya kwa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu.”
I have baptized you with water. Yet truly, he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”
9 Moŵa go, Che Yesu ŵaiche kutyochela musi wa ku Nasaleti wauli mu chilambo cha ku Galilaya ni ŵabatiswe ni che Yohana mu lusulo lwa Yolodani.
And it happened that, in those days, Jesus arrived from Nazareth of Galilee. And he was baptized by John in the Jordan.
10 Che Yesu paŵakopokaga mmeesi, ŵakuweni kwinani kuugwiche ni Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ŵantuluchile achiŵaga mpela nguunda.
And immediately, upon ascending from the water, he saw the heavens opened and the Spirit, like a dove, descending, and remaining with him.
11 Liloŵe lya Akunnungu lyapikaniche kutyochela kwinani lichitiji, “Mmwejo ni Mwanangu jungunnonyela, nonyelwe nomwe.”
And there was a voice from heaven: “You are my beloved Son; in you I am well pleased.”
12 Papopo Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ŵanlongwesye Che Yesu kwaula mwipululu.
And immediately the Spirit prompted him into the desert.
13 Ni ŵatemi mwipululu mo moŵa alobaini achilinjikwaga ni Shetani. Kukoko ŵatamaga pamo ni inyama ya mwitinji, nambo achikatumetume ŵa kwinani ŵaliji nkwakamuchisya.
And he was in the desert for forty days and forty nights. And he was tempted by Satan. And he was with the wild animals, and the Angels ministered to him.
14 Che Yohana paŵataŵikwe mu nyuumba jakutaŵilwa ŵandu, Che Yesu ŵajawile ku chilambo cha ku Galilaya kwalalichila ŵandu Ngani Jambone ja Akunnungu.
Then, after John was handed over, Jesus went into Galilee, preaching the Gospel of the kingdom of God,
15 Ŵatite, “Katema kaiche ni Umwenye wa Akunnungu uŵandichile. Nneche sambi syenu ni kujikulupilila Ngani Jambone!”
and saying: “For the time has been fulfilled and the kingdom of God has drawn near. Repent and believe in the Gospel.”
16 Che Yesu paŵapitaga mungulugulu litanda lya Galilaya, ŵaweni ŵakukoka ŵaŵili, che Simoni pamo ni che Andulea mpwakwe ali nkukoka somba kwa lwau.
And passing by the shore of the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew, casting nets into the sea, for they were fishermen.
17 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Munguye, none chinantende ŵanyamwe mme ŵakwaikanawo ŵandu kwa Ambuje.”
And Jesus said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.”
18 Papopo ŵalesile nyau syao ni kwakuya.
And at once abandoning their nets, they followed him.
19 Che Yesu paŵajawile mmbujo kanandi, ŵaweni che Yakobo ni che Yohana, ŵanache ŵa che Sebedayo. Ni ŵanyawo ŵaliji mu ngalaŵa jao achisaulaga nyau syao.
And continuing on a little ways from there, he saw James of Zebedee and his brother John, and they were mending their nets in a boat.
20 Papopo Che Yesu paŵaweni, ŵaaŵilasile, ni ŵanyawo ŵalesile che Sebedayo atati ŵao mu ngalaŵa pamo ni ŵakwapanganyichisya masengo, ni ŵakuiye Che Yesu.
And immediately he called them. And leaving behind their father Zebedee in the boat with his hired hands, they followed him.
21 Che Yesu pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaiche musi wa Kapelenaumu, ni palyaiche Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila, Che Yesu ŵajinjile mu nyuumba ja kusimanilana Ŵayahudi, ni ŵatandite kwajiganya ŵandu maloŵe gambone ga Akunnungu.
And they entered into Capernaum. And entering into the synagogue promptly on the Sabbaths, he taught them.
22 Ŵandu wose ŵaŵampilikene ŵasimosile ni uwiganye wakwe, pakuŵa nganajiganya mpela ŵakwiganya Malajisyo, nambo ŵajiganyaga nti mundu jwali ni ulamusi.
And they were astonished over his doctrine. For he was teaching them as one who has authority, and not like the scribes.
23 Papopo mundu jwakamwilwe ni lisoka juŵaliji mu nyuumba ja kusimanilana jila ŵanyanyisye,
And in their synagogue, there was a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,
24 achitiji, “Ana nkusaka kututenda ichichi, mmwe Che Yesu jwa ku Nasaleti? Ana nnyiche kukutujonanga? Ngummanyilila kuti mmwejo ndi Jwanswela jwa Akunnungu!”
saying: “What are we to you, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are: the Holy One of God.”
25 Che Yesu ŵalikalipile lisoka lyo achitiji, “Mmyalale! Munkopoche mundu jo.”
And Jesus admonished him, saying, “Be silent, and depart from the man.”
26 Nipele lisoka lyo lyantinganyisye mundu jula kwa machili ni kunyanyisya, ni lyakopweche.
And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying out with a loud voice, departed from him.
27 Ŵandu wose ŵasimosile nnope ni ŵaliji nkuusyana, “Ana yelei ni yatiuli? Uli, gelega gali majiganyo ga sambano? Mundu ju akwete ulamusi wa kugakoposya namose masoka, nombego gakwajitichisya!”
And they were all so amazed that they inquired among themselves, saying: “What is this? And what is this new doctrine? For with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.”
28 Nipele, ngani jakwe Che Yesu jajenele kwachitema palipose, kuchilambo chose cha ku Galilaya.
And his fame went out quickly, throughout the entire region of Galilee.
29 Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao pamo ni che Yakobo ni che Yohana ŵakopweche mu nyuumba ja kusimanilana jila ni kwaula ku nyuumba ja ŵanya che Simoni ni che Andulea.
And soon after departing from the synagogue, they went into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30 Akwegwao che Simoni jwankongwe, ŵagonile pachindanda ali nkulwala chiilu, ni Che Yesu naikape ŵasalilwe yankati jwakulwala jo.
But the mother-in-law of Simon lay ill with a fever. And at once they told him about her.
31 Nipele Che Yesu ŵanjaulile jwankongwe jo ni ŵankamwile nkono ni kunjinamukula. Ulwele ula wannesile nipele ŵatandite kwatelechela.
And drawing near to her, he raised her up, taking her by the hand. And immediately the fever left her, and she ministered to them.
32 Ligulo, lyuŵa lili litiŵile, ŵandu ŵaajauchisye Che Yesu ŵakulwala wose ni ŵaŵakamwilwe ni masoka.
Then, when evening arrived, after the sun had set, they brought to him all who had maladies and those who had demons.
33 Ŵandu wose ŵa musi wo ŵasongangene paluŵala lwa nyuumba.
And the entire city was gathered together at the door.
34 Che Yesu ŵalamisye ŵandu ŵajinji ŵaŵaliji ni ilwele yakupisyangana ni kugakoposya masoka gamajinji gagaliji mwa ŵandu ŵala. Nganiŵapa masoka lipesa lyakuŵecheta chachilichose ligongo gaamanyilile ali ŵaani.
And he healed many who were troubled with various illnesses. And he cast out many demons, but he would not permit them to speak, because they knew him.
35 Kundaŵipe kukanaŵe kucha, Che Yesu ŵakopweche mu nyuumba jo ni kwaula paasa musi, pangali ŵandu kukupopela.
And rising up very early, departing, he went out to a deserted place, and there he prayed.
36 Che Simoni ni achinjakwe ŵala ŵajawile kukwasosa.
And Simon, and those who were with him, followed after him.
37 Paŵammweni ŵansalile, “Ŵandu wose ali nkunsosa mmwe.”
And when they had found him, they said to him, “For everyone is seeking you.”
38 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Tukusachilwa tujaule mmisinda jine jajiŵandichile akuno, ni kweleko ngusachilwa ngalalichile Ngani Jambone, pakuŵa yelei ni inyichile.”
And he said to them: “Let us go into the neighboring towns and cities, so that I may preach there also. Indeed, it was for this reason that I came.”
39 Nipele, Che Yesu ŵajesilejesile ku Galilaya kose, achilalichilaga mmajumba gao ga kupopelela ni kugakoposya masoka.
And he was preaching in their synagogues and throughout all of Galilee, and casting out demons.
40 Lyuŵa limo mundu jwa matana ŵaiche ku Che Yesu ni kwatindiŵalila ni kwachondelela kuti, “Mwasakaga muuswejesye!”
And a leper came to him, begging him. And kneeling down, he said to him, “If you are willing, you are able to cleanse me.”
41 Che Yesu ŵankolele chanasa, ŵajongwele nkono wao ni ŵankwaiye ni kwasalila, “Ngusaka, Nswejele!”
Then Jesus, taking pity on him, reached out his hand. And touching him, he said to him: “I am willing. Be cleansed.”
42 Papopo matana gakwe gala gannesile ni ŵaswejele.
And after he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.
43 Nipele Che Yesu ŵansalile ajaule achinjamukaga kwa machili, achinsalilaga,
And he admonished him, and he promptly sent him away.
44 “Nnole, munansalile mundu jwalijose chindu chi, nambo njaule nkalilosye kwa jwambopesi, nkatyosye mbopesi mpela iŵatite pakusala che Musa kwalosya ŵandu wose kuti nnamile.”
And he said to him: “See to it that you tell no one. But go and show yourself to the high priest, and offer for your cleansing that which Moses instructed, as a testimony for them.”
45 Nambo mundu jula paŵakopweche, ŵatandite kwenesya ngani jo papalipose, namose Che Yesu nganakombola kwinjila sooni mmusi kwakulilosya. Nambo ŵatemi paasa musi, pangali ŵandu, atamuno yeleyo ŵandu kopochela papalipose ŵanjaulile kukokopeko.
But having departed, he began to preach and to disseminate the word, so that he was no longer able to openly enter a city, but had to remain outside, in deserted places. And they were gathered to him from every direction.
