Maliko 5
1 Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaiche peesi litanda lya Galilaya, ku chilambo cha ku Gelasi.
Jesus and his disciples arrived on the [east] side of Lake [Galilee. They landed near] where the Gerasene [people lived].
2 Nakopokape Che Yesu mu ngalaŵa, ŵasimene ni mundu juŵaliji ni lisoka achityochelaga ku malembe.
There was a man in that region whom evil spirits controlled.
3 Mundu jo ŵaliji nkutama ku malembe. Nganapagwa mundu juŵankombolaga kuntaŵa sooni namose ni minyolo.
[Because that man was violent and people were afraid of him], they had tied him up many times. [As he grew more violent], no one was able to tie him up any longer, not even with chains,
4 Katema kakajinji ŵantaŵile makongolo ni makono gakwe kwa minyolo ni magwedegwede, nambo ŵagambaga kutulanya minyolo jo ni kutemanya magwedegwede mmakongolo. Ni ngapagwa mundu jwamachili juŵapakombwele kunkamula.
because the chains would be broken by him {he would break the chains} whenever he was bound {they bound him} with them. The iron shackles would also be smashed by him {He would also smash the iron shackles} whenever they were fastened {they fastened them} [on his feet].
5 Muusi ni chilo ŵaliji nkwendajenda ku malembe ni mmatumbi achinyanyisyaga ni kulikatanya ni maganga.
He lived in one of the caves [where they bury dead people]. During both night and day he would scream among the caves and in the hills. He would also cut himself with [sharp] stones. [That day] he came out of the caves.
6 Mundu jo paŵambweni Che Yesu kwakutalichila, ŵambutuchile ni kwatindiŵalila.
As Jesus [and his disciples got] out of the boat, that man saw Jesus from a distance. He immediately ran to Jesus, and then he knelt before him.
7 Ŵanyanyisye achitiji, “Mmwe Che Yesu, Mwana jwa Akumanani, ana nkusaka chichi kwanguune? Mu liina lya Akunnungu, ngunchondelela nnalagasye!”
Jesus said to the evil spirit, “You evil spirit, come out of this man!” [But the demon did not leave quickly]. It shouted very loudly, “Jesus, I [know that you are the] (Son of/man who is also) God, so (we have nothing in common./what do we have in common?) [IDM, RHQ] [So leave me alone] I ask you to promise, knowing God is listening, that you will not torture me [now]!”
8 Ŵaŵechete yeleyo pakuŵa Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Mmwe lisoka, nkopoche mwa mundu ju.”
9 Che Yesu ŵambusisye, “Liina lyenu ŵaani?” Nombejo ŵajanjile, “Liina lyangu Mpingo, pakuŵa tuli achajinji.”
[So, in order to expel the demon more easily], Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He replied, “My name is Crowd/Mob because there are many of us [evil spirits in this man].”
10 Nipele ŵachondelele kwannope Che Yesu kuti akasagakopochesya masoka go paasa musi ula.
Then the evil spirits fervently kept begging Jesus that he not send them out of the region.
11 Chiŵandi ni chitulusya kwaliji ni mpingo wekulungwa wa maguluŵe gachilyaga.
[At the same time], a large herd of pigs was (grazing/rooting for food) nearby on the hillside.
12 Nipele, masoka gaachondelele Che Yesu gachitiji, “Ntujausye ku maguluŵe gala, tukagajinjile gelego.”
So the evil spirits pleaded with Jesus, “Allow us to go to the pigs in order that we might enter them!”
13 Nombe Che Yesu ŵagalechele. Nipele masoka gala gankopweche mundu jula ni kwinjila mmaguluŵe. Mpingo wose wa maguluŵe waliji mpela mianda jiŵili waselelechele mu litanda, watitimile mmeesi ni kuwa.
He permitted them [to do that]. So the evil spirits left the man and entered the pigs. The herd, [which numbered] about 2,000, rushed down the cliff into the lake, and drowned in the lake.
14 Ŵandu ŵaŵachingaga maguluŵe go, ŵautuchile mmusi ni mmigunda kukwasalila ŵandu iyatendekwe yo. Ŵandu ŵaiche kukulola iyatyochele.
The men who had been tending the pigs ran and reported in the town and the countryside [what had happened. Many people] went to see what had happened.
15 Paŵaiche kuŵaliji Che Yesu kula, ŵammweni mundu julajula juŵakamwilwe ni mpingo wa masoka. Jwatemi ali awasile nguo syakwe ni jwana lunda, ni ŵandu ŵajogwepe nnope.
They came to [the place where] Jesus [was]. Then they saw the man whom evil spirits had [previously] controlled. He was sitting there with clothes on and mentally sound. [As a result], they became afraid [because they thought that Jesus might destroy more of their property]. (OR, [they realized that Jesus must be very powerful].)
16 Ni ŵandu ŵaŵaiweni aila iyatyochele, ŵaasalile ŵandu ŵane iyansimene mundu jwakamwilwe ni masoka jula ni ngani ja maguluŵe.
The people who had seen what had happened described what had happened to the man whom the evil spirits [previously] controlled. They also described [what had happened to] the pigs.
17 Nipele, ŵandu ŵatandite kwachondelela Che Yesu kuti akopoche mu chilambo chao.
Then the people pleaded with Jesus to leave their region.
18 Che Yesu paŵaliji nkwinjila mu ngalaŵa, mundu juŵakamwilwe ni masoka jula ŵachondelele kuti alongane nawo.
As Jesus got in the boat [in order to leave], the man whom the evil spirits [previously] controlled begged Jesus, “[Please let me] go with you!”
19 Nambo, Che Yesu ŵakanile ni kwasalila, “Njaule kumangwenu, kwa achalongo achinjenu, nkaasalile yanayose yambone yampanganyichisye Ambuje ni yatite pakunkolela chanasa.”
But Jesus did not let him [go with him]. On the contrary, he said to him, “Go home to your family and tell them how much the Lord [God] has done for you, and tell them how [God] was kind to you.”
20 Nipele mundu jula ŵajawile ni kutanda kwenesya ku chilambo chose cha Dekapoli, yaani misi likumi, indu yaikulungwa iŵapanganyichisye Che Yesu. Ŵandu wose ŵaŵapilikene ŵasimosile.
So the man left [and traveled around] the Ten Towns [district]. He told people how much Jesus had done for him. All the people [who heard what the man said] were amazed.
21 Che Yesu ŵajombweche sooni litanda lya Galilaya ni ngalaŵa. Paŵaliji mungulugulu litanda, mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu wasongangene pachiŵandi nawo.
Jesus [and his disciples] went in a boat back around Lake [Galilee] to where they were before. When they arrived at the shore of the lake, a large crowd gathered around Jesus.
22 Pelepo jwaiche mundu jumo, jwankulu jwa nyuumba ja kusimanilana Ŵayahudi, liina lyakwe che Yailo. Paŵambweni Che Yesu, ŵaligwisisye paujo pa Che Yesu.
One of the men who presided over a (synagogue/Jewish meeting place), whose name was Jairus, came there. When he saw Jesus, he prostrated himself at his feet.
23 Nipele, ŵachondelele nnope achitiji, “Mwali jwangu akulwala nnope, ngummenda twende nkansajichile makono kuti alame ni kukola umi.”
Then he pleaded with Jesus earnestly, “My twelve-year old daughter is [sick and] nearly dead! [Please] come [to my house] and place your hands on her in order that she will be healed {to heal her}, so that she will not die!”
24 Nipele, Che Yesu ŵatyosile achilonganaga ni mundu jula. Ŵandu ŵajinji ŵakuiye ni ŵaliji nkwaŵijikanya kosekose.
So Jesus [and the disciples] went with him. A large crowd followed [Jesus] and [many] pushed close to him.
25 Pelepo paliji ni jwankongwe juŵaliji ni magono kwa yaka likumi ni iŵili.
There was a woman [in the crowd] who had vaginal bleeding [EUP] [every day] for twelve years.
26 Jwankongwe jo, ŵalasile nnope kwajaulila ŵamitela ŵajinji. Namuno ŵaliji atyosisye ipanje yakwe yose, nambo nganapata eja ni ulwele ula waliji nkuendelechela pe.
She had suffered much while many doctors [treated her]. But although she had spent all [her money] to pay the doctors, she had not been helped {they had not helped her}. Instead, she had become worse [EUP].
27 Jwankongwe jo paŵapilikene kuti Che Yesu akwalamya ŵandu, ŵapelete mu mpingo wa ŵandu ula ni kwajaulila Che Yesu kwa panyuma ni kukwaya chiwalo chakwe.
After she heard that Jesus [healed people], she came [to where he was and pushed] in the crowd [close] behind Jesus.
28 Ŵaganisisye, “Nakwayaga pe chiwalo chao, chiilame.”
She did that because she was thinking, “If I [touch him or] even if I touch his clothes, I will be healed {his power will heal me}.” So she touched Jesus’ clothes.
29 Paŵakwaiye pe chiwalo chi Che Yesu, papopo magono gakwe galesile, nombe ŵalipikene pachiilu kuti alamile.
At once her bleeding stopped. At the same time, she sensed that she had been cured of {that [he] had cured} her illness.
30 Papopo Che Yesu ŵamanyilile kuti machili gakwe ganlamisye mundu. Nipele ŵaugalauchile mpingo wa ŵandu ni kuusya, “Ana nduni jwakwaiye iwalo yangu?”
Jesus [also] immediately sensed that his power had healed someone. So he turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my clothes?”
31 Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵajanjile, “Ngankwaona ŵandu yatiteje pakumbijikanya? Nambi nkuusya uli kuti, ‘Nduni jwangwaiye?’”
[One of] his disciples replied, “You can see that many people are crowding close to you! [Probably many people touched you]! So (why do you ask ‘Who touched me?’[/We are surprised] that you ask ‘Who touched me?’ [RHQ])”
32 Nambo Che Yesu ŵapundile kulolesyalolesya kuti ŵaone juŵatesile yeleyo jo.
But Jesus kept looking around in order to see the one who had done it.
33 Pelepo jwankongwe jo achimanyililaga iyasimene, ŵajaulile Che Yesu alinkutetemela kwa lipamba ni kuligwisya paujo pao, ni kwasalila usyene wose.
The woman was very afraid and trembling. [She thought that Jesus might be angry because she had violated the law that women who had such a] sickness [should not touch other people. But] she knew [that Jesus had healed her]. So she prostrated herself before him. Then she told him truthfully [about what she had done].
34 Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Mwanangu, chikulupi chenu chinnamisye. Njaule kwa chitendewele ni nlame ulwele wenu.”
He said to her, “(Ma’am/Young lady), because you have believed [that I could heal you], I have healed you. You may go home with peace [in your heart/inner being], [because I promise that] you will not be sick [this way any more].”
35 Che Yesu paŵaliji nkuŵecheta, ŵaiche ŵandu kutyochela ku nyuumba ji che Yailo, jwankulu jwa nyuumba ja kusimanilana Ŵayahudi jula ni ŵansalile, “Mwali jwenu jula ajasiche. Ligongochi nkunsausya Jwakwiganya?”
While Jesus was still speaking [to that woman], some people arrived who had come from Jairus’ house. They said [to Jairus], “Your daughter has [now] died. So (it is useless that you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]!/why do you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]?) [RHQ]”
36 Nambo Che Yesu nganagakosya maloŵe gaŵaŵechete ŵandu wo, nipele ŵansalile jwankulu jwa nyuumba ja kusimanilana Ŵayahudi jula, “Kasinjogopa, ngambe kulupilila pe.”
But when Jesus heard what these men said, he said to Jairus, “Do not think that the situation is hopeless! Just keep believing [that she will live]!”
37 Nipele Che Yesu nganasaka kulongana ni mundu jwalijose, ikaŵe che Petulo ni che Yakobo ni che Yohana mpwakwe che Yakobo.
Then he allowed only [his three closest disciples], Peter, James, and John, to go with him [to Jairus’ house]. He did not allow any other people to go with him. After they arrived near the house, Jesus saw that the people there were in turmoil. They were weeping and wailing [DOU] loudly.
38 Paŵaiche ku nyuumba ji che Yailo, Che Yesu ŵaweni ŵandu alinkunyokonya kwa ililo ni kulila kwa malumbo.
39 Che Yesu ŵajinjile mu nyuumba ni kwasalila ŵandu, “Kwachichi nkunyokonya ni kulila? Mwali nganajasika, agambile gona pe.”
He entered the house and then he said to them, knowing that [he was going to cause her to live again], “(Do not make such a disturbance!/Why are you making such a disturbance?) [RHQ] Stop crying, for the child is not dead! On the contrary, she is [only] sleeping [HYP, EUP]!”
40 Nombe ŵanyawo ŵansechile. Nipele Che Yesu ŵaakopwesye paasa wose, ŵaajigele atatigwe ni achikulugwe mwali jo pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵatatu, ŵajinjile mu chuumba chiŵagonile mwali jo.
The people laughed at him, [because they knew that she was dead]. But he sent all the other people outside the house. Then he took the child’s father and mother and the [three disciples] who were with him. He went into [the room] where the child was [lying].
41 Ŵankamwile nkono ni ŵansalile, “Talisa, kumi,” malumbo gakwe, “Mwali, ngunsalila njimuche!”
He took hold of the child’s hand and said to her [in her own language], “Talitha, Koum!” That means, “Little girl, get up!”
42 Papopo mwali jo ŵajimwiche ni ŵajesile. Mwali jo ŵaliji ni yaka likumi ni iŵili. Pichakopochele chelecho ŵandu ŵala ŵasimosile kwa nnope.
At once the girl got up and walked around. ([It was not surprising that she could walk], because she was twelve years old.) [When this happened, all who were present] were very astonished.
43 Nambo Che Yesu ŵaalekasisye kwannope anaasalile ŵandu ŵane ngani jo. Nipele ŵaasalile, “Mwape chakulya alye.”
Jesus ordered them strictly, “Do not tell anyone about [what I have done]!” Afterwards he told them that something to eat should be brought to the girl {that they should bring the girl something to eat}.
