1 Nipele Che Yesu ŵajinjile sooni mu nyuumba ja kusimanilana Ŵayahudi ni mmomo mwaliji ni mundu jwapombotele nkono.
At another time, when He went to the synagogue, there was a man there with one arm shrivelled up.
2 Ŵandu ŵampepe ŵaliji nkusosa ligongo lya kwakamulila Che Yesu. Nipele ŵaliji nkunnolechesya panepa chanlamye mundu jo pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila.
They closely watched Him to see whether He would cure him on the Sabbath--so as to have a charge to bring against Him.
3 Che Yesu ŵansalile mundu jwapombotele nkono jula, “Njise paujo.”
"Come forward," said He to the man with the shrivelled arm.
4 Nipele Che Yesu ŵausisye, “Ana ili yambone pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila kuitendekanya yambone pane yangalumbana? Kukulupusya pane kuulaga?” Nambo ŵanyawo ŵamyalele.
Then He asked them, "Are we allowed to do good on the Sabbath, or to do evil? to save a life, or to destroy one?" They remained silent.
5 Che Yesu ŵalolechesye wose kwa lutumbilo, ni ŵasupwiche ligongo mitima jao jaliji jekakatime. Nipele ŵansalile mundu jula, “Njongole nkono wenu!” Nombejo ŵaujongwele, ni nkono wao walamile.
Grieved and indignant at the hardening of their hearts, He looked round on them with anger, and said to the man, "Stretch out your arm." He stretched it out, and the arm was completely restored.
6 Papopo, Mafalisayo ŵakopweche paasa pa nyuumba ja kusimanilana ni kuŵechetesyana ni ŵandu ŵa mpingo u che Helode itajile pakwaulaga Che Yesu.
But no sooner had the Pharisees left the synagogue than they held a consultation with the Herodians against Jesus, to devise some means of destroying Him.
7 Che Yesu pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵatyosile pelepo ni kwaula mungulugulu litanda lya Galilaya ni mpingo wa ŵandu wankuiye. Ŵandu wo ŵaumile mmisi ja ku Galilaya ni ku Yudea.
Accordingly Jesus withdrew with His disciples to the Lake, and a vast crowd of people from Galilee followed Him;
8 Paŵapilikene iŵaitesile Che Yesu, ŵandu ŵane ŵaichilile kutyochela mmisi ja ku Yelusalemu ni ku Idumea ni mmisi jajili peesi lusulo lwa Yolodani, ni kutyochela mmisi ja ku Tilo ni ku Sidoni.
and from Judaea and Jerusalem and Idumaea and from beyond the Jordan and from the district of Tyre and Sidon there came to Him a vast crowd, hearing of all that He was doing.
9 Pakuŵa ŵandu ŵaliji ŵajinji, Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaŵichile chile ngalaŵa kuti ŵandu anaiche kwaŵijikanya.
So He gave directions to His disciples to keep a small boat in constant attendance on Him because of the throng--to prevent their crushing Him.
10 Pakuŵa ŵaalamisye ŵandu ŵajinji, ŵakulwala wose ŵaliji nkututana kuti ŵakwaye.
For He had cured many of the people, so that all who had any ailments pressed upon Him, to touch Him.
11 Ni ŵandu ŵaŵakamwilwe ni masoka paŵammonaga, ŵaligwisisye paujo pao ni kunyanyisya achitiji, “Mmwejo ni Mwana jwa Akunnungu!”
And the foul spirits, whenever they saw Him, threw themselves down at His feet, screaming out: "You are the Son of God."
12 Nambo Che Yesu ŵagakanyisye kwa chikali masoka ganaamanyisye ŵandu ŵane kuti ŵele ali ŵaani.
But He many a time checked them, forbidding them to say who He was.
13 Che Yesu ŵakwesile kwitumbi ni kwaŵilanga ŵandu ŵaŵasachile nsyene, nombewo ŵajaulile.
Then He went up the hill; and those whom He Himself chose He called, and they came to Him.
14 Nipele ŵasagwile ŵandu likumi ni ŵaŵili ŵaŵaaŵilasile achinduna ni kwasalila, “Nansagwile nnonjele pamo none, sooni chinantume kukwalalichila ŵandu Ngani Jambone,
He appointed twelve of them, that they might be with Him, and that He might also send them to proclaim His Message,
15 ni ŵanyamwe chinkole ulamusi wa kugakoposya masoka.”
with authority to expel the demons.
16 Ŵeleŵa ni ŵandu likumi ni ŵaŵili ŵaŵasagwile, che Simoni ajula Che Yesu juŵampele liina liine che Petulo,
These twelve were Simon (to whom He gave the surname of Peter),
17 ni Che Yakobo ni mpwakwe che Yohana ŵanache wa che Sebedayo, Che Yesu ŵapele liina liine Boanelige malumbo gakwe “Ŵandu ŵaali mpela ilindimo, pane akuŵilanjikwa ŵandu ŵaambumu.”
James the son of Zabdi and John the brother of James (these two He surnamed Boanerges, that is 'Sons of Thunder'),
18 Ŵane ŵaliji che Andulea ni che Filipo ni che Batolomayo ni che Matayo ni che Tomasi ni che Yakobo mwana ju che Alufayo, che Tadayo ni che Simoni jwakuŵilanjikwa Selote, ligongo ŵaliji jwakumenyanila chilambo chakwe,
Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Cananaean,
19 ni che Yuda Isikaliote, juŵangalawiche Che Yesu.
and Judas Iscariot, the man who also betrayed Him.
20 Nipele Che Yesu ŵausile kumangwao. Mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu ŵasongangene sooni, mpaka Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao nganakombola kulya.
And He went into a house. But again the crowd assembled, so that there was no opportunity for them even to snatch a meal.
21 Achalongo achinjakwe paŵapilikene yelei, ŵapite kukwajigala ligongo ŵatite kuti jwampugwe.
Hearing of this, His relatives came to seize Him by force, for they said, "He is out of his mind."
22 Ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ŵaŵaumile ku Yelusalemu ŵatite, “Akwete Belesebuli! Jwankulu jwa masoka, jwakwapa machili ga kugakoposya masoka.”
The Scribes, too, who had come down from Jerusalem said, "He has Baal-zebul in him; and it is by the power of the Prince of the demons that he expels the demons."
23 Pelepo Che Yesu ŵaaŵilasile ŵandu ni kwasalila kwa itagu achitiji, “Ana ikukomboleka Shetani kunkoposya Shetani njakwe?
So He called them to Him, and using figurative language He appealed to them, saying, "How is it possible for Satan to expel Satan?
24 Iŵaga umwenye usapulene mipingo mipingo jajikumenyana, umwenye wo ngaujendelechela.
For if civil war breaks out in a kingdom, nothing can make that kingdom last;
25 Sooni iŵaga ŵandu ŵa nyuumba jimo asapulanaga mipingo mipingo ni kumenyana, ŵandu wo chajonasiche.
and if a family splits into parties, that family cannot continue.
26 Iyoyo peyo, umwenye wa Shetani, wasapulanaga mipingo mipingo ngaukola machili.
So if Satan has risen in arms and has made war upon himself, stand he cannot, but meets his end.
27 “Ngapagwa jwakupakombola kwinjila mu nyuumba ja jwamachili ni kunsumula ipanje yakwe yose, pangantaŵa kaje jwamachili jo. Pelepo ni pachachikombola kunsumula ipanje yakwe yose.
Nay, no one can go into a strong man's house and carry off his property, unless he first binds the strong man, and then he will plunder his house.
28 “Isyene ngunsalila, ŵandu chaalecheleswe sambi syao syose ni kwatukana kwao Akunnungu kose.
In solemn truth I tell you that all their sins may be pardoned to the sons of men, and all their blasphemies, however they may have blasphemed;
29 Nambo, mundu jwalijose jwakuntukana Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ngalecheleswa sambi syo ng'o, pakuŵa chakole sambi sya moŵa gose pangali mbesi.” (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit, he remains for ever unabsolved: he is guilty of a sin of the Ages." (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
30 Che Yesu ŵaŵechete yeleyo ligongo ŵandu ŵaliji nkusala kuti, “Akamwilwe ni lisoka.”
This was because they said, "He is possessed by a foul spirit."
31 Achikulugwe ni achapwakwe Che Yesu ŵaiche pelepo, ŵajimi paasa ni kuntuma mundu akaaŵilanje Che Yesu nkati.
By this time His mother and His brothers arrive, and standing outside they send a message to Him to call Him.
32 Mpingo wa ŵandu watemi kwakwasyungula Che Yesu. Nipele jumo jwao ŵansalile, “Achikulu ŵenu ni achapwenu alinji paasa, akunsosa.”
Now a crowd was sitting round Him; so they tell Him, "Your mother and your brothers and sisters are outside, inquiring for you."
33 Nambo Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Ana achikulu ŵangu ni achapwanga ali ŵaani?”
"Who are my mother and my brothers?" He replied.
34 Pelepo ŵaalolechesye ŵandu uŵansyungwile ŵala ni kuti, “Nnole, ngwaona ŵandu ŵa mpela achikulu ŵangu ni achalongo ŵangu.
And, fixing His eyes on the people who were sitting round Him in a circle, He said,
35 Pakuŵa mundu jwalijose jwakuitendekanya yakuisaka Akunnungu, jwelejo ali achimwene jwangu ni mlumbwangu ni achikulu ŵangu.”
"Here are my mother and my brothers. For wherever there is one who has been obedient to God, there is my brother--my sister--and my mother."
