< Maliko 2 >
1 Pagapite moŵa gampepe, Che Yesu ŵaujile sooni ku Kapelenaumu ni ŵandu ŵapilikene kuti ali pamusi.
And after some days, he again entered into Capernaum.
2 Nipele ŵandu ŵajinji ŵasongangene atamuno nganilisigala lipesa lyalililyose, ni ŵagumbele mpaka paluŵala. Che Yesu ŵaliji nkwalalichila Liloŵe lya Akunnungu.
And it was heard that he was in the house. And so many gathered that there was no room left, not even at the door. And he spoke the word to them.
3 Pelepo ŵandu ncheche, ŵannyichisye mundu jwatatele ku Che Yesu.
And they came to him, bringing a paralytic, who was being carried by four men.
4 Nambo kwaligongo lya winji wa ŵandu, nganakombola kunjausya jwakulwala pachiŵandi ni Che Yesu. Nipele, ŵapesekwile pa chipagala cha nyuumba palapala paŵaliji Che Yesu. Pelepo ŵantulwisye mundu jo ali agonile pa chitagala.
And when they were not able to present him to him because of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where he was. And opening it, they lowered down the stretcher on which the paralytic was lying.
5 Che Yesu paŵachiweni chikulupi chao chila, ŵansalile jwakutatala jula, “Mwanangu, nlecheleswe sambi syenu.”
Then, when Jesus had seen their faith, he said to the paralytic, “Son, your sins are forgiven you.”
6 Ŵampepe mwa ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ga Akunnungu gaŵapele che Musa ŵaŵatemi pepala, ŵaliji nkuliusya mmitima jao,
But some of the scribes were sitting in that place and thinking in their hearts:
7 “Ana akukombola chinauli kuŵecheta yelei? Akwatukana Akunnungu! Akunnungu pe ni ŵakukombola kulechelesya sambi.”
“Why is this man speaking in this way? He is blaspheming. Who can forgive sins, but God alone?”
8 Papopo Che Yesu ŵaimanyilile yanayose iŵaganisyaga mmitima jao, ni ŵausisye, “Ana ligongo chi nkuganisya yelei mmitima jenu?
At once, Jesus, realizing in his spirit that they were thinking this within themselves, said to them: “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?
9 Ana chapi chachili chakwepepala, kunsalila mundu jwatatele ju, ‘Nlecheleswe sambi syenu,’ pane kunsalila, ‘Njimuche, njigale chitagala chenu njende’?
Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Rise up, take up your stretcher, and walk?’
10 Nipele, ngusaka mmanyilile kuti Mwana jwa Mundu akwete ulamusi wa kulechelesya sambi sya ŵandu pachilambo pano.” Papopo ŵansalile mundu jwatatele jula,
But so that you may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins,” he said to the paralytic:
11 “Ngunsalila, njimuche, njigale chitagala chenu, njaule kumangwenu!”
“I say to you: Rise up, take up your stretcher, and go into your house.”
12 Ŵandu paŵannolechesyaga, mundu jula ŵajimwiche, ŵajigele chitagala chao ni kukopoka. Ŵandu wose ŵasimosile ni kwakusya Akunnungu achitiji, “Ngapagwa kose patwaiweni yanti yeleyi!”
And immediately he got up, and lifting up his stretcher, he went away in the sight of them all, so that they all wondered. And they honored God, by saying, “We have never seen anything like this.”
13 Che Yesu ŵajawile sooni mungulugulu litanda lya Galilaya. Mpingo wa ŵandu wanjaulile ni Che Yesu ŵatandite kwajiganya.
And he departed again to the sea. And the entire crowd came to him, and he taught them.
14 Paŵaliji nkupita, ŵammweni che Lawi mwanache ju che Alufayo ali atemi pa nyuumba ja kukumbikanyila nsongo. Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Munguye!” Che Lawi ŵajimi ni ŵankuiye.
And as he was passing by, he saw Levi of Alphaeus, sitting at the customs office. And he said to him, “Follow me.” And rising up, he followed him.
15 Kanyuma, Che Yesu ŵatemi mu nyuumba ji che Lawi kulya chakulya. Ŵakukumbikanya nsongo ŵajinji ni ŵandu ŵa sambi ni ŵandu, ŵaakuiye Che Yesu. Ni ŵajinji mwa ŵelewo ŵaliji nkulya pamo nawo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao.
And it happened that, as he sat at table in his house, many tax collectors and sinners sat at table together with Jesus and his disciples. For those who followed him were many.
16 Ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ŵampepe ŵaŵaliji Mafalisayo, paŵaiweni kuti Che Yesu akulya pamo ni ŵandu ŵangakukundikwa ni ŵandu ni ŵakukumbikanya nsongo, ŵausisye ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵala, “Kwachichi akulya ni ŵandu nti ŵeleŵa?”
And the scribes and the Pharisees, seeing that he ate with tax collectors and sinners, said to his disciples, “Why does your Teacher eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”
17 Che Yesu paŵapilikene ŵaasalile, “Ŵandu ŵangakulwala ngakunlajila jwantela, nambo ŵakulwala. Une nganiika kukwaŵilanga ŵandu ŵambone, nambo ŵandu ŵa sambi.”
Jesus, having heard this, said to them: “The healthy have no need of a doctor, but those who have maladies do. For I came not to call the just, but sinners.”
18 Katema kampepe ŵakulijiganya ŵa che Yohana ni ŵakulijiganya ŵa Mafalisayo ŵaliji nkutaŵa. Ŵandu ŵampepe ŵaiche ku Che Yesu ni kumbusya, “Ana ligongo chi ŵakulijiganya ŵa che Yohana ni ŵakulijiganya ŵa Mafalisayo akutaŵanga, nambo ŵakulijiganya ŵenu ngaakutaŵa?”
And the disciples of John, and the Pharisees, were fasting. And they arrived and said to him, “Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not fast?”
19 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ana ŵakuŵilanjikwa ku ulombela akukombola kutaŵa ni jwanlombela ali pamo nawo? Ngwamba! Ngaakukombola kutaŵa.
And Jesus said to them: “How can the sons of the wedding fast while the groom is still with them? During whatever time they have the groom with them, they are not able to fast.
20 Nambo chiliiche lyuŵa mlombela jo pachajigalikwe mwa ŵanyawo, moŵa go ni pachachitaŵa.
But the days will arrive when the groom will be taken away from them, and then they shall fast, in those days.
21 “Ngapagwa mundu jwakukata chigamba cha nguo ja sambano ni kuchitotela mu nguo jakuwisala. Pakuŵa atendaga yeleyo chigamba chasambano cho chichinyale ni kupapula nguo jakuwisala jo ni papapapwiche po chipapunde kupapuka.
No one sews a patch of new cloth onto an old garment. Otherwise, the new addition pulls away from the old, and the tear becomes worse.
22 Ni sooni ngapagwa mundu jwakutaga divai jasambano mmisaku ja mapende jakuwisala. Pakuŵa atendaga yeleyo divai jasambano chijitutumule misaku jo ni kujipapula, divai chijimwasiche ni misaku chijijonasiche. Divai ja sambano jikutajikwa mmisaku ja mapende ja sambano.”
And no one puts new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the wine will burst the wineskins, and the wine will pour out, and the wineskins will be lost. Instead, new wine must be put into new wineskins.”
23 Pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila limo, Che Yesu pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaliji nkupita mmigunda ja ngano. Paŵaliji nkwenda ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵatandite kutema masache ga ngano.
And again, while the Lord was walking through the ripe grain on the Sabbath, his disciples, as they advanced, began to separate the ears of grains.
24 Mafalisayo ŵaausisye Che Yesu achitiji, “Nnole! Ligongo chi ŵakulijiganya ŵenu akutenda yaikanichikwe kuipanganya pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila?”
But the Pharisees said to him, “Behold, why are they doing what is not lawful on the Sabbaths?”
25 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ana nganinsyome iŵatesile che Daudi ni achinjakwe pajakwete sala?
And he said to them: “Have you never read what David did, when he had need and was hungry, both he and those who were with him?
26 Che Daudi ŵajinjile pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu ni ŵalile mikate jijatyochekwe nti sadaka kwa Akunnungu. Yeleyi yatendekwe katema che Abiasali ali Jwambopesi Jwankulu. Ŵambopesi pe ni ŵaŵasachilwe kulya mikate jo, nambo che Daudi ŵalile, sooni ŵapele achinjakwe.”
How he went into the house of God, under the high priest Abiathar, and ate the bread of the Presence, which it was not lawful to eat, except for the priests, and how he gave it to those who were with him?”
27 Nipele Che Yesu ŵamalichisye kuŵecheta, “Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila lyaŵichikwe kwaligongo lya kwakamuchisya ŵandu nambo ngaŵa ŵandu kulitumichila Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila.
And he said to them: “The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath.
28 Nipele Mwana jwa Mundu ali Ambuje atamuno pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila.”
And so, the Son of man is Lord, even of the Sabbath.”
