Maliko 4
1 Che Yesu ŵatandite sooni kwiganya ali mungulugulu litanda lya Galilaya. Mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu wansyungwile mpaka ŵajinjile mu ngalaŵa ni kutama mmomo. Ŵandu wose ŵatemi mungulugulu litanda.
And again he began to teach by the sea side. And there is gathered unto him a very great multitude, so that he entered into a boat, and sat in the sea; and all the multitude were by the sea on the land.
2 Che Yesu ŵatandite kwajiganya indu yejinji kwa itagu. Mmajiganyo gakwe ŵaasalile.
And he taught them many things in parables, and said unto them in his teaching,
3 “Mpilikanichisye! Jwakupanda ŵajawile kukumisa mbeju.
Hearken: Behold, the sower went forth to sow:
4 Paŵamisaga, mbeju sine syagwilile mwitala ni ijuni yaiche ni kusimila.
and it came to pass, as he sowed, some [seed] fell by the way side, and the birds came and devoured it.
5 Mbeju sine syagwilile pa lwala papaliji ni litaka kanandi, mbeju syamesile kwachitema pakuŵa litaka lyakwe lyaliji kanandi.
And other fell on the rocky [ground], where it had not much earth; and straightway it sprang up, because it had no deepness of earth:
6 Ni palyakopweche lyuŵa lyatinisye mimela, ligongo michiga jakwe nganijijinjilisya paasi.
and when the sun was risen, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.
7 Mbeju sine syagwilile pa miiŵa, miiŵa jila jakusile ni kuiŵijikanya mimela, nombe mimela jo nganijisogola isogosi.
And other fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
8 Mbeju sine syagwilile pa chaajila, syamesile ni syakusile ni kusogola. Sine syasogwele makumi gatatu ni sine makumi nsano ni limo ni sine makumi likumi.”
And others fell into the good ground, and yielded fruit, growing up and increasing; and brought forth, thirtyfold, and sixtyfold, and a hundredfold.
9 Che Yesu ŵatite, “Ŵaali ni mapilikanilo gakupilikana, apilikane.”
And he said, Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
10 Che Yesu paŵaliji pajika, ŵane mwa ŵaŵampilikene ŵala pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao likumi ni ŵaŵili ŵanjaulile ni kumbusya malumbo ga itagu yo.
And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parables.
11 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ŵanyamwe mpegwilwe kumanyilila yantemela ya Umwenye wa Akunnungu. Nambo kwa ŵane ŵaali paasa chalijiganye indu yose kwa itagu pe,
And he said unto them, Unto you is given the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all things are done in parables:
12 kuti, ‘Alolechesye, nambo anaone. Apilikanile, nambo anaimanyilile. Pakuŵa amanyililaga chiŵagalauchile Akunnungu, nombejo akaalechelesye sambi syao.’”
that seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest haply they should turn again, and it should be forgiven them.
13 Nipele, Che Yesu ŵausisye, “Uli ngankugamanyilila malumbo ga chitagu chi? Nambi chimmanyilile chinauli malumbo ga itagu ine?
And he saith unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how shall ye know all the parables?
14 Jwakupanda mbeju akupanda Liloŵe lya Akunnungu.
The sower soweth the word.
15 Ŵandu ŵane akulandana ni mbeju sisyagwilile mwitala. Pakulipilikana Liloŵe lya Akunnungu, Shetani akwika ni kulityosya Liloŵe lyalipandikwe mmitima jao.
And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; and when they have heard, straightway cometh Satan, and taketh away the word which hath been sown in them.
16 Ni ŵandu ŵane ali mpela mbeju sisyagwilile pa lwala. Ŵandu wo apilikanaga Liloŵe lya Akunnungu, papopo akulijitichisya mu kusangalala.
And these in like manner are they that are sown upon the rocky [places], who, when they have heard the word, straightway receive it with joy;
17 Nambo ngalikwajinjila ni kola michiga mwa ŵanyawo, akulikamulisya kwa katema kakajipi. Nipele, kwatyochelaga kulaga pane masauko ligongo lya Liloŵe lya Akunnungu lila, pelepo akulilekanga.
and they have no root in themselves, but endure for a while; then, when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, straightway they stumble.
18 Ŵandu ŵane ali mpela mbeju sisyagwilile pa miiŵa. Ŵandu wo ni ŵeŵala ŵakulipilikana Liloŵe lya Akunnungu,
And others are they that are sown among the thorns; these are they that have heard the word,
19 ligongo lya lipamba lya umi wu ni kunonyelwa ni ipanje pamo ni kulajila indu ine yejinji, ikwajinjila ni kuliŵijikanya Liloŵe lyo, nombewo ngakukombola kulijitichisya Liloŵe yalikuti ni kusogola isogosi. (aiōn g165)
and the cares of the world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
20 Nambo ŵandu ŵane ali mpela mbeju sisyagwilile pa chaajila sila. Ŵelewo akulipilikana Liloŵe lyo ni kulijitichisya, nombewo akusogola isogosi ŵane makumi gatatu ni ŵane makumi nsano ni limo ni ŵane makumi likumi.”
And those are they that were sown upon the good ground; such as hear the word, and accept it, and bear fruit, thirtyfold, and sixtyfold, and a hundredfold.
21 Che Yesu ŵapundile kwasalila, “Ana mundu akupamba lumuli ni kuluikanawo nkati ni kuluunichila ni lulo pane kuluŵika kuusi chindanda? Ngwamba! Akuluŵika pachanya chindu chakuŵichila lumuli.
And he said unto them, Is the lamp brought to be put under the bushel, or under the bed, [and] not to be put on the stand?
22 Iyoyo, chindu chachilichose chachisisikwe chichioneche pakulanguka, ni chachilichose cheunichikwe chichiunukulikwe.
For there is nothing hid, save that it should be manifested; neither was [anything] made secret, but that it should come to light.
23 Ŵaali ni mapilikanilo gakupilikana, apilikane!”
If any man hath ears to hear, let him hear.
24 Ni ŵapundile kwasalila, “Mpilikanichisye yambone inkwipikana yo! Lilamulo lilalila linkwalamulila ŵandu ŵane, Akunnungu chaachinnamulila ni ŵanyamwe wakwe, sooni chanjonjechesye.
And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete it shall be measured unto you: and more shall be given unto you.
25 Pakuŵa mundu jwakwete chindu chajonjechekwe ni mundu jwanganakola chindu chasumulwe atamuno kanandi chakwete.”
For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken away even that which he hath.
26 Che Yesu ŵajendelechele kuŵecheta, “Umwenye wa Akunnungu ukulandana ni mundu jwakumisa mbeju mu ngunda.
And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed upon the earth;
27 Chilo akugona ni muusi akuŵa meeso, mbeju sikumela ni kukula. Nombejo ngakuimanyilila yaikutendekwa.
and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should spring up and grow, he knoweth not how.
28 Litaka lisyene likutendekasya mmela kukula ni kusogola. Kundanda ukumela, sooni ukukoposya lisache kumbesi ukusogola ngano.
The earth beareth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, then the full corn in the ear.
29 isogosi yakomalaga pe, mundu jula akugungula ni chikwakwa chakwe, pakuŵa katema ka magungulo kaiche.”
But when the fruit is ripe, straightway he putteth forth the sickle, because the harvest is come.
30 Che Yesu ŵausisye sooni, “Ana tutuulandanichisye ni chichi Umwenye wa Akunnungu? Kwaali tuutanje kwa chitagu chi?
And he said, How shall we liken the kingdom of God? or in what parable shall we set it forth?
31 Ukulandana ni mbeju ja haladali, mbeju jamwana nnope kupunda mbeju syose syasikupandikwa pachilambo.
It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown upon the earth, though it be less than all the seeds that are upon the earth,
32 Nambo japandikwaga jikukula ni kuŵa chitela chachikulungwa kupunda mimela jose ja mu ngunda, nombecho chikuŵa ni nyambi syasikulungwa nnope ni ijuni ikwika kutaŵa isusi mu nyambi syakwe.”
yet when it is sown, groweth up, and becometh greater than all the herbs, and putteth out great branches; so that the birds of the heaven can lodge under the shadow thereof.
33 Che Yesu ŵalalichile ŵandu utenga wao kwa itagu yejinji yanti yele, ŵakungulwiche nawo mpela iŵatite pakukombola ŵanyawo kumanyilila.
And with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were able to hear it:
34 Nganaŵecheta ni ŵandu chachilichose pangali itagu, nambo paŵaliji pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao pachisyepela ŵatagulile yose.
and without a parable spake he not unto them: but privately to his own disciples he expounded all things.
35 Lyuŵa lilyolyo ligulo, Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵakwe, “Tujombochele peesi litanda.”
And on that day, when even was come, he saith unto them, Let us go over unto the other side.
36 Nipele ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaulesile mpingo wa ŵandu ula, ni kwinjila mu ngalaŵa jiŵaliji Che Yesu ni kwaula nawo. Ilaila paliji ni ngalaŵa sine.
And leaving the multitude, they take him with them, even as he was, in the boat. And other boats were with him.
37 Nipele jatandite kupuga mbungo jejikulungwa ni matumbela gajiputile ngalaŵa jila, nombejo jatandite gumbala meesi.
And there ariseth a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the boat, insomuch that the boat was now filling.
38 Che Yesu ŵaliji panyuma mu ngalaŵa ali agonile pa nsamilo. Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaajimwisye ni kwasalila, “Jwakwiganya, ana uli ngankuikosya kuti uweji tulinkonasika?”
And he himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?
39 Che Yesu ŵajimwiche, ni kujikalipila mbungo jejikulungwa ni kugasalila matumbela, “Tulalani!” Papopo mbungo jatulele ni kwaliji jii.
And he awoke, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
40 Nipele Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao, “Kwachichi nkogopanga? Ana nganimme kola chikulupi?”
And he said unto them, Why are ye fearful? have ye not yet faith?
41 Ŵakulijiganya ŵajogwepe nnope ni ŵausyanaga, “Ana jweleju ali mundu jwanti uli? Mpaka chimbunga ni matumbela ikwapilikanila!”
And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
