Maliko 7
1 Mafalisayo ŵampepe ni jwakwiganya Malajisyo ŵaŵatyochele ku Yelusalemu ŵasongangene paujo pa Che Yesu.
Then the Pharisees and some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem gathered around Jesus,
2 Ŵanyawo ŵaweni ŵakulijiganya ŵampepe ŵa Che Yesu akulya panganaŵa makono mpela iyasachilwaga ni Malajisyo ga Chiyahudi.
and they saw some of His disciples eating with hands that were defiled—that is, unwashed.
3 Pakuŵa, Mafalisayo ni Ŵayahudi wose ngakulya chakulya panganaŵa mmakono, mpaka pachisukusuku achikamulisyaga masyoŵelo ga achachekulu ŵachiikala.
Now in holding to the tradition of the elders, the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat until they wash their hands ceremonially.
4 Sooni paakutyokanga pakusumichisya malonda ngakulya chachilichose pangajosya kaje. Nombe akugakuyanga masyoŵelo gamajinji gaŵapochele kutyochela kwa achachekulu, mpela ila yakuti pakosya migao ni iteleko ni yoombo ya libati.
And on returning from the market, they do not eat unless they wash. And there are many other traditions for them to observe, including the washing of cups, pitchers, kettles, and couches for dining.
5 Nipele Mafalisayo ni Ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ŵala ŵausisye Che Yesu, “Kwachichi ŵakulijiganya ŵenu ngakugakuya masyoŵelo gitupochele kwa achachekulu ŵetu, nambo akwamba kulya chakulya mmakono muli musakele?”
So the Pharisees and scribes questioned Jesus: “Why do Your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders? Instead, they eat with defiled hands.”
6 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ŵaulamba ŵanyamwe! Che Isaya, jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu, ŵalondwele yambone pa ŵanyamwe mpela iŵatite pakulemba, ‘Akunnungu akuti, ŵandu ŵa akunjimbichisyanga pakang'wa pe, nambo mmitima jao ali kwakutalikangana ni une.
Jesus answered them, “Isaiah prophesied correctly about you hypocrites, as it is written: ‘These people honor Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from Me.
7 Kumbopelela kwao kwangali chindu, ligongo akwiganya malajisyo ga ŵandu mpela ila akugajiganya Malajisyo ga Akunnungu.’
They worship Me in vain; they teach as doctrine the precepts of men.’
8 “Ŵanyamwe nkugaleka Malajisyo ga Akunnungu ni kugakamulisya masyoŵelo ga ŵandu.”
You have disregarded the commandment of God to keep the tradition of men.”
9 Che Yesu ŵapundile kuŵecheta, “Ŵanyamwe nkumanyi kukana kwa lunda lwenu Malajisyo ga Akunnungu kuti ngakuye masyoŵelo genu mwachinsyene!
He went on to say, “You neatly set aside the command of God to maintain your own tradition.
10 Pakuŵa che Musa ŵalajisye, ‘Mwachimbichisye atati ŵenu ni achikulu ŵenu,’ ni, ‘Mundu jwalijose juchantukane atatigwe pane achikulugwe, aulajikwe.’
For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and your mother’ and ‘Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.’
11 Nambo ŵanyamwe nkwiganya, iŵaga mundu akwete chindu chakombola kwakamuchisya achikulugwe pane atatigwe, nambo nkuti chindu cho chili ‘Kolibani’, malumbo gakwe chindu cho chityosyekwe sadaka kwa Akunnungu,
But you say that if a man says to his father or mother, ‘Whatever you would have received from me is Corban’ (that is, a gift devoted to God),
12 nipele mundu jo ngakusachilwa sooni kwakamuchisya atatigwe pane achikulugwe.
he is no longer permitted to do anything for his father or mother.
13 Yeleyo ni inkuti pakulijalusya Liloŵe lya Akunnungu kwa masyoŵelo ginkujiganyana. Ni sooni nkugatendekanya gamajinji ganti iyoyo.”
Thus you nullify the word of God by the tradition you have handed down. And you do so in many such matters.”
14 Che Yesu ŵauŵilasile sooni mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu ula ni kwasalila, “Mumbikanichisye wose, ni mmanyilile.
Once again Jesus called the crowd to Him and said, “All of you, listen to Me and understand:
15 Ngapagwa chakulya chaakulya mundu, chachikuntendekasya aŵe jwangakundikwa ni Akunnungu. Nambo chachikukopoka nkati mwa mundu, ni chachikuntendekasya mundu jo aŵe jwangakundikwa ni Akunnungu.
Nothing that enters a man from the outside can defile him; but the things that come out of a man, these are what defile him.”
16 Ŵaali ni mapilikanilo gakupilikana, apilikane!”
17 Paŵalekangene ni ŵandu ŵala ni kwinjila mu nyuumba, ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵambusisye malumbo ga chitagu cho.
After Jesus had left the crowd and gone into the house, His disciples inquired about the parable.
18 Nombe Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Ni ŵanyamwe nganinkola umanyilisi? Ana ngankumanyilila kuti chakulya chaakulya mundu ngachikukombola kuntendekasya aŵe jwangakundikwa ni Akunnungu?
“Are you still so dull?” He asked. “Do you not understand? Nothing that enters a man from the outside can defile him,
19 Pakuŵa ngachikwinjila mu ntima mwakwe, nambo mlutumbo ni chikukopoka paasa pa chiilu pakwe.” Paŵaŵechete yeleyo Che Yesu ŵaitesile yakulya yose ikomboleche kuligwa.
because it does not enter his heart, but it goes into the stomach and then is eliminated.” (Thus all foods are clean.)
20 Ŵapundile kuŵecheta, “Chachikukopoka nkati mwa mundu ni chachikuntendekasya mundu jo aŵe jwangakundikwa ni Akunnungu.
He continued: “What comes out of a man, that is what defiles him.
21 Pakuŵa mu ntima mwa mundu ni mwamukukopoka ng'anisyo syangalimate, ni chikululu ni wiyi ni uulasi,
For from within the hearts of men come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery,
22 ni chikululu ni lipamo ni ungalumbana ni kulambusya ni kunyenga ni wiu ni kutukana ni chibuli ni kuloŵela.
greed, wickedness, deceit, debauchery, envy, slander, arrogance, and foolishness.
23 Yangalumbana yose yo, ikukopoka nkati mwa mundu, yose yo ni yaikuntendekasya mundu aŵe jwangakundikwa ni Akunnungu.”
All these evils come from within, and these are what defile a man.”
24 Che Yesu ŵatyosile pelepo, ŵajawile mu mmusi wauŵandikene ni ku Tilo. Ni kweleko ŵajinjile mu nyuumba jimo ni nganasaka mundu jwalijose aimanyilile, nambo nganakombola kulisisa.
Jesus left that place and went to the region of Tyre. Not wanting anyone to know He was there, He entered a house, but was unable to escape their notice.
25 Jwankongwe jumo, juŵaliji ni mwali juŵakamwilwe ni lisoka, ŵapilikene ngani si Che Yesu. Ni ŵaajaulile ni kuligwisya pa makongolo gao.
Instead, a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit soon heard about Jesus, and she came and fell at His feet.
26 Jwankongwe jo ŵaliji Mgiliki ni nganaŵa Myahudi, juŵapagwile musi wa ku Silofonike ku chilambo cha ku Silia. Ŵaachondelele Che Yesu akankoposye mwali jwao lisoka.
Now she was a Greek woman of Syrophoenician origin, and she kept asking Jesus to drive the demon out of her daughter.
27 Nambo Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ajikute kaje ŵanache, pakuŵa ngaŵa yambone kwigala chakulya cha ŵanache ni kusijasila mbwa syao.”
“First let the children have their fill,” He said. “For it is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”
28 Nambo jwankongwe jo ŵatite, “Elo, Ambuje, nambo ngati atamuno mbwa syasikutama kuusi mesa, sikulya mbakatika syakusigwisya ŵanache.”
“Yes, Lord,” she replied, “even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs.”
29 Pelepo Che Yesu ŵasalile, “Kwaligongo lya intite pakwanga, njaule kumusi. Lisoka linkopweche mwali jwenu.”
Then Jesus told her, “Because of this answer, you may go. The demon has left your daughter.”
30 Nipele jwankongwe jo ŵausile kumangwao, ŵansimene mwanagwe agonile pachindanda ni lisoka lili linkopweche.
And she went home and found her child lying on the bed, and the demon was gone.
31 Nipele Che Yesu ŵatyosile ku chilambo cha ku Tilo ni kwaula ku litanda lya Galilaya achipitilaga ku Sidoni ni ku Dekapoli.
Then Jesus left the region of Tyre and went through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee and into the region of the Decapolis.
32 Ŵaiche ŵandu ŵampepe ali anjigele mundu juŵaliji jwangapikana ni jwangaŵecheta, ŵaachondelele Che Yesu ansajichile makono mundu jo ni kunlamya.
Some people brought to Him a man who was deaf and hardly able to speak, and they begged Jesus to place His hand on him.
33 Che Yesu ŵantyosisye mundu jo mu mpingo wa ŵandu ni kunjausya pangali ŵandu, ŵaŵisile yala mmapilikanilo ga mundu jula. Ŵasunile mata pa chaala chakwe ni kunkwaya lulimi mundu jula.
So Jesus took him aside privately, away from the crowd, and put His fingers into the man’s ears. Then He spit and touched the man’s tongue.
34 Nipele Che Yesu ŵalolite kwinani kwa Akunnungu ni kwisya ntima, ŵansalile mundu jo, “Efata,” malumbo gakwe “Mbuguche.”
And looking up to heaven, He sighed deeply and said to him, “Ephphatha!” (which means, “Be opened!”).
35 Papopo mapilikanilo ga mundu jula gaugwiche ni lulimi lwakwe lwagopweche, nipele ŵatandite kuŵecheta uchenene.
Immediately the man’s ears were opened and his tongue was released, and he began to speak plainly.
36 Che Yesu ŵakanyisye ŵandu ŵala kuti akansalila mundu jwalijose yelei. Namuno ŵapundile kwakanyisya, ŵanyawo ŵapundisye kuijenesya yeleyo.
Jesus ordered them not to tell anyone. But the more He ordered them, the more widely they proclaimed it.
37 Ni ŵandu ŵasimosile nnope ni kuti, “Atesile yose mwambonepe, namose ŵangapilikana akwatenda apilikane ni ŵangaŵecheta akwatenda aŵechete!”
The people were utterly astonished and said, “He has done all things well! He makes even the deaf hear and the mute speak!”
