Maliko 1
1 Jeleji jili ndande ja Ngani Jambone ji Che Yesu Kilisito, Mwana jwa Akunnungu.
A beginning of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, 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 is written in the prophets —“Take note, I am sending my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.”
3 Mundu akunyanyisya mwipululu achitiji, ‘Mwakolochesye Ambuje litala lyao, ngolosye mwakusaka kupita.’”
“A voice calling out: ‘In the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord, make His paths straight!’”—
4 Che Yohana Ŵakubatisya ŵatamaga mwipululu ni kwalalichila ŵandu aleche sambi ni kwabatisya kuti Akunnungu ŵalechelesye sambi syao.
John started baptizing in the wilderness and proclaiming a baptism of repentance for forgiveness 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.
Well, the whole Judean countryside and the Jerusalemites started going out to him, and were all being baptized by him in the Jordan River, 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.
Now John was clothed with camel's hair and with a leather belt around his waist; and he was eating 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 was proclaiming: “After me my Superior is coming, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen.
8 Uneji ngumbatisya ni meesi, nambo jwelejo chaachimbatisya kwa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu.”
I indeed baptized you with water, but He will baptize you with 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.
Well it happened in those days that Jesus came from Natsareth of Galilee and 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 coming up from the water He saw the heavens being torn open and the Spirit, like a dove, descending upon Him.
11 Liloŵe lya Akunnungu lyapikaniche kutyochela kwinani lichitiji, “Mmwejo ni Mwanangu jungunnonyela, nonyelwe nomwe.”
And a Voice came from the heavens: “You are my Son, the beloved, in whom I am well pleased!”
12 Papopo Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ŵanlongwesye Che Yesu kwaula mwipululu.
Immediately the Spirit impelled Him into the wilderness.
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 there in the wilderness forty days being tested by Satan, and was with the wild animals; and the angels were ministering to Him.
14 Che Yohana paŵataŵikwe mu nyuumba jakutaŵilwa ŵandu, Che Yesu ŵajawile ku chilambo cha ku Galilaya kwalalichila ŵandu Ngani Jambone ja Akunnungu.
Now after John was put in prison, Jesus went into Galilee proclaiming 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: “The time has been fulfilled and the Kingdom of God has approached. 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.
Then, as He was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew his brother, of Simon, casting a circular net onto the water, for they were fishermen.
17 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Munguye, none chinantende ŵanyamwe mme ŵakwaikanawo ŵandu kwa Ambuje.”
So Jesus said to them: “Come, follow me and I will turn you into fishers of men.”
18 Papopo ŵalesile nyau syao ni kwakuya.
At once they left their nets and 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 going on from there a little ways He saw James, son of Zebedee, and his brother John; they were in their boat mending their nets.
20 Papopo Che Yesu paŵaweni, ŵaaŵilasile, ni ŵanyawo ŵalesile che Sebedayo atati ŵao mu ngalaŵa pamo ni ŵakwapanganyichisya masengo, ni ŵakuiye Che Yesu.
Right away He called them, and leaving their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men 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.
Then they went into Capernaum. The very next Sabbath He entered the synagogue and began to teach.
22 Ŵandu wose ŵaŵampilikene ŵasimosile ni uwiganye wakwe, pakuŵa nganajiganya mpela ŵakwiganya Malajisyo, nambo ŵajiganyaga nti mundu jwali ni ulamusi.
And they kept on being amazed at His teaching, because He was teaching them as one having authority, and not like the scribes.
23 Papopo mundu jwakamwilwe ni lisoka juŵaliji mu nyuumba ja kusimanilana jila ŵanyanyisye,
Now there was a man in their synagogue 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: “Hey, what do you want with us, Jesus Natsarene?! 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.”
So Jesus rebuked him saying: “Shut up and get out of him!”
26 Nipele lisoka lyo lyantinganyisye mundu jula kwa machili ni kunyanyisya, ni lyakopweche.
The unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of 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 all were astounded, so that they questioned among themselves, saying: “What is this? What can this new doctrine be? Because 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.
So His fame spread directly into the whole surrounding area 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.
Immediately upon exiting 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.
Simon's mother-in-law was lying down with a fever, so without delay they told Him about her.
31 Nipele Che Yesu ŵanjaulile jwankongwe jo ni ŵankamwile nkono ni kunjinamukula. Ulwele ula wannesile nipele ŵatandite kwatelechela.
So He went and grasping her hand lifted her up; immediately the fever left her and she began to serve them.
32 Ligulo, lyuŵa lili litiŵile, ŵandu ŵaajauchisye Che Yesu ŵakulwala wose ni ŵaŵakamwilwe ni masoka.
That evening, when the sun had set, they started bringing to Him all who were sick and the demonized.
33 Ŵandu wose ŵa musi wo ŵasongangene paluŵala lwa nyuumba.
So much so that the whole town was gathered 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 sick with various diseases and cast out many demons; and He did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew He was Messiah.
35 Kundaŵipe kukanaŵe kucha, Che Yesu ŵakopweche mu nyuumba jo ni kwaula paasa musi, pangali ŵandu kukupopela.
Now very early, still night, He got up, slipped out, and went off to a solitary place, where He was praying.
36 Che Simoni ni achinjakwe ŵala ŵajawile kukwasosa.
Simon and those with him hunted for Him,
37 Paŵammweni ŵansalile, “Ŵandu wose ali nkunsosa mmwe.”
and upon finding Him they said to Him, “Everyone is looking for you.”
38 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Tukusachilwa tujaule mmisinda jine jajiŵandichile akuno, ni kweleko ngusachilwa ngalalichile Ngani Jambone, pakuŵa yelei ni inyichile.”
But He said to them: “Let us go to the neighboring towns, so I can preach there also; that is why I have come.”
39 Nipele, Che Yesu ŵajesilejesile ku Galilaya kose, achilalichilaga mmajumba gao ga kupopelela ni kugakoposya masoka.
He was constantly preaching in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and also casting out demons.
40 Lyuŵa limo mundu jwa matana ŵaiche ku Che Yesu ni kwatindiŵalila ni kwachondelela kuti, “Mwasakaga muuswejesye!”
A leper came to Him, imploring Him, kneeling before Him and saying to Him, “If you want to, you are able to cleanse me.”
41 Che Yesu ŵankolele chanasa, ŵajongwele nkono wao ni ŵankwaiye ni kwasalila, “Ngusaka, Nswejele!”
So being moved with compassion, Jesus stretched out His hand and touched him, and said to him: “I want to; be cleansed!”
42 Papopo matana gakwe gala gannesile ni ŵaswejele.
And when He said this, immediately the leprosy left him, and he was cleansed.
43 Nipele Che Yesu ŵansalile ajaule achinjamukaga kwa machili, achinsalilaga,
And He sent him away at once, sternly warning him,
44 “Nnole, munansalile mundu jwalijose chindu chi, nambo njaule nkalilosye kwa jwambopesi, nkatyosye mbopesi mpela iŵatite pakusala che Musa kwalosya ŵandu wose kuti nnamile.”
by saying: “See that you say nothing to anyone; but go, show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing the things that Moses commanded, as a testimony to 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.
However he went out and began to proclaim it freely, spreading the news, so that He was no longer able to enter a town openly, but remained outside in deserted places; yet they kept coming to Him from all over.
