< Maliko 2 >
1 Pagapite moŵa gampepe, Che Yesu ŵaujile sooni ku Kapelenaumu ni ŵandu ŵapilikene kuti ali pamusi.
And again he entered into Capernaum, after [some] days; and it was understood that he was in the house.
2 Nipele ŵandu ŵajinji ŵasongangene atamuno nganilisigala lipesa lyalililyose, ni ŵagumbele mpaka paluŵala. Che Yesu ŵaliji nkwalalichila Liloŵe lya Akunnungu.
And forthwith many were assembled, so that there was no room to receive [them], no not so much as about the door: and he preached the word to them.
3 Pelepo ŵandu ncheche, ŵannyichisye mundu jwatatele ku Che Yesu.
And they come to him, bringing one sick with the palsy, who was borne by four.
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 could not come nigh to him by reason of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken [it] up, they let down the bed on which the sick with the palsy lay.
5 Che Yesu paŵachiweni chikulupi chao chila, ŵansalile jwakutatala jula, “Mwanangu, nlecheleswe sambi syenu.”
When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the sick with the palsy, Son, thy sins are forgiven thee.
6 Ŵampepe mwa ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ga Akunnungu gaŵapele che Musa ŵaŵatemi pepala, ŵaliji nkuliusya mmitima jao,
But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,
7 “Ana akukombola chinauli kuŵecheta yelei? Akwatukana Akunnungu! Akunnungu pe ni ŵakukombola kulechelesya sambi.”
Why doth this [man] thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only?
8 Papopo Che Yesu ŵaimanyilile yanayose iŵaganisyaga mmitima jao, ni ŵausisye, “Ana ligongo chi nkuganisya yelei mmitima jenu?
And immediately, when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said to them, Why reason ye 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 sick with the palsy, [Thy] sins are forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, 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 that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, he saith to the sick with the palsy,
11 “Ngunsalila, njimuche, njigale chitagala chenu, njaule kumangwenu!”
I say to thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go into thy 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 arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; so that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.
13 Che Yesu ŵajawile sooni mungulugulu litanda lya Galilaya. Mpingo wa ŵandu wanjaulile ni Che Yesu ŵatandite kwajiganya.
And he went forth again by the sea -[side]; and all the multitude resorted 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 passed by, he saw Levi the [son] of Alpheus, sitting at the receipt of custom, and said to him, Follow me. And he arose, and 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 came to pass, that as Jesus sat at table in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples; for there were many, and they followed him.
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 when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eating with publicans and sinners, they said to his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners.
17 Che Yesu paŵapilikene ŵaasalile, “Ŵandu ŵangakulwala ngakunlajila jwantela, nambo ŵakulwala. Une nganiika kukwaŵilanga ŵandu ŵambone, nambo ŵandu ŵa sambi.”
When Jesus heard [it], he saith to them, They that are in health, have no need of a physician, but they that are sick; I came not to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.
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 of the Pharisees, used to fast: and they come, and say to him, Why do the disciples of John, and of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not?
19 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ana ŵakuŵilanjikwa ku ulombela akukombola kutaŵa ni jwanlombela ali pamo nawo? Ngwamba! Ngaakukombola kutaŵa.
And Jesus said to them, Can the children of the bride-chamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.
20 Nambo chiliiche lyuŵa mlombela jo pachajigalikwe mwa ŵanyawo, moŵa go ni pachachitaŵa.
But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then they will 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 man also seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the new piece that filled it up, taketh away from the old, and the rent is made 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 man putteth new wine into old bottles, else the new wine doth burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled, and the bottles will be marred: but new wine must be put into new bottles.
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 it came to pass, that he went through the corn-fields on the sabbath; and his disciples began, as they went, to pluck the ears of corn.
24 Mafalisayo ŵaausisye Che Yesu achitiji, “Nnole! Ligongo chi ŵakulijiganya ŵenu akutenda yaikanichikwe kuipanganya pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila?”
And the Pharisees said to him, Behold, why do they on the sabbath that which is not lawful?
25 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ana nganinsyome iŵatesile che Daudi ni achinjakwe pajakwete sala?
And he said to them, Have ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was hungry, he and they that 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, in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and ate the show-bread, which it is not lawful to eat, but for the priests, and gave also to them 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.”
Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
