< Maliko 7 >
1 Mafalisayo ŵampepe ni jwakwiganya Malajisyo ŵaŵatyochele ku Yelusalemu ŵasongangene paujo pa Che Yesu.
The Pharisees and some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem gathered around him.
2 Ŵanyawo ŵaweni ŵakulijiganya ŵampepe ŵa Che Yesu akulya panganaŵa makono mpela iyasachilwaga ni Malajisyo ga Chiyahudi.
They saw that some of his disciples ate bread 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.
(For the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they wash their hands, because they hold to the tradition of the elders.
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.
When the Pharisees come from the marketplace, they do not eat unless they bathe themselves, and they hold fast to many other traditions, such as the washing of cups, pots, copper vessels, and the couches upon which they eat.)
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?”
The Pharisees and the scribes asked Jesus, “Why do your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, for they eat their bread with unwashed 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.
But he said to them, “Isaiah prophesied well about you hypocrites. He wrote, 'This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
7 Kumbopelela kwao kwangali chindu, ligongo akwiganya malajisyo ga ŵandu mpela ila akugajiganya Malajisyo ga Akunnungu.’
Empty worship they offer me, teaching the rules of men as their doctrines.'
8 “Ŵanyamwe nkugaleka Malajisyo ga Akunnungu ni kugakamulisya masyoŵelo ga ŵandu.”
You abandon the commandment of God and hold fast to the tradition of men.”
9 Che Yesu ŵapundile kuŵecheta, “Ŵanyamwe nkumanyi kukana kwa lunda lwenu Malajisyo ga Akunnungu kuti ngakuye masyoŵelo genu mwachinsyene!
He also said to them, “How well you reject the commandment of God so you may keep your 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, 'He who speaks evil of his father or mother will surely die.'
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, 'If a man says to his father or mother, “Whatever help you would have received from me is Corban”' (that is to say, 'Given to God'),
12 nipele mundu jo ngakusachilwa sooni kwakamuchisya atatigwe pane achikulugwe.
then you no longer permit him to do anything for his father or his mother.
13 Yeleyo ni inkuti pakulijalusya Liloŵe lya Akunnungu kwa masyoŵelo ginkujiganyana. Ni sooni nkugatendekanya gamajinji ganti iyoyo.”
You are making the commandment of God void by your tradition which you have handed down. And many similar things you do.”
14 Che Yesu ŵauŵilasile sooni mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu ula ni kwasalila, “Mumbikanichisye wose, ni mmanyilile.
He called the crowd again and said to them, “Listen to me, all of you, 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.
There is nothing from outside of a person that can defile him when it enters into him. It is what comes out of the person that defiles him.”
16 Ŵaali ni mapilikanilo gakupilikana, apilikane!”
17 Paŵalekangene ni ŵandu ŵala ni kwinjila mu nyuumba, ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵambusisye malumbo ga chitagu cho.
Now when Jesus left the crowd and entered the house, his disciples asked him about the parable.
18 Nombe Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Ni ŵanyamwe nganinkola umanyilisi? Ana ngankumanyilila kuti chakulya chaakulya mundu ngachikukombola kuntendekasya aŵe jwangakundikwa ni Akunnungu?
Jesus said, “Are you also still without understanding? Do you not see that whatever enters into a person from outside cannot 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 cannot go into his heart, but it goes into his stomach and then passes out into the latrine?” With this statement Jesus declared all foods clean.
20 Ŵapundile kuŵecheta, “Chachikukopoka nkati mwa mundu ni chachikuntendekasya mundu jo aŵe jwangakundikwa ni Akunnungu.
He said, “It is that which comes out of the person that defiles him.
21 Pakuŵa mu ntima mwa mundu ni mwamukukopoka ng'anisyo syangalimate, ni chikululu ni wiyi ni uulasi,
For from within a person, out of the heart, proceed evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder,
22 ni chikululu ni lipamo ni ungalumbana ni kulambusya ni kunyenga ni wiu ni kutukana ni chibuli ni kuloŵela.
adultery, coveting, wickedness, deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride, folly.
23 Yangalumbana yose yo, ikukopoka nkati mwa mundu, yose yo ni yaikuntendekasya mundu aŵe jwangakundikwa ni Akunnungu.”
All these evils come from within, and they are what defile a person.”
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.
He got up from there and went away to the region of Tyre and Sidon. There he went into a house and he wanted no one to know where he was, but he could not be hidden.
25 Jwankongwe jumo, juŵaliji ni mwali juŵakamwilwe ni lisoka, ŵapilikene ngani si Che Yesu. Ni ŵaajaulile ni kuligwisya pa makongolo gao.
In fact, as soon a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit heard about him, she came and fell down 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 the woman was a Greek, a Syrophoenician by descent. She begged him to cast out the demon from her daughter.
27 Nambo Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ajikute kaje ŵanache, pakuŵa ngaŵa yambone kwigala chakulya cha ŵanache ni kusijasila mbwa syao.”
He said to her, “Let the children first be fed. For it is not right to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs.”
28 Nambo jwankongwe jo ŵatite, “Elo, Ambuje, nambo ngati atamuno mbwa syasikutama kuusi mesa, sikulya mbakatika syakusigwisya ŵanache.”
But she answered and said to him, “Yes, Lord, 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.”
He said to her, “Because you have said this, you are free to go. The demon has gone out of your daughter.”
30 Nipele jwankongwe jo ŵausile kumangwao, ŵansimene mwanagwe agonile pachindanda ni lisoka lili linkopweche.
She went back to her house and found the 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 he went out again from the region of Tyre, and went through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee up 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.
They brought to him someone who was deaf and had difficulty speaking, and they begged him to lay 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.
He took him aside from the crowd privately, and he put his fingers into his ears, and after spitting, he touched his tongue.
34 Nipele Che Yesu ŵalolite kwinani kwa Akunnungu ni kwisya ntima, ŵansalile mundu jo, “Efata,” malumbo gakwe “Mbuguche.”
He looked up to heaven, he sighed and said to him, “Ephphatha,” that is to say, “Open!”
35 Papopo mapilikanilo ga mundu jula gaugwiche ni lulimi lwakwe lwagopweche, nipele ŵatandite kuŵecheta uchenene.
At once his ears were opened, 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 to tell no one. But the more he ordered them, the more abundantly they proclaimed it.
37 Ni ŵandu ŵasimosile nnope ni kuti, “Atesile yose mwambonepe, namose ŵangapilikana akwatenda apilikane ni ŵangaŵecheta akwatenda aŵechete!”
They were extremely astonished, saying, “He has done all things well. He even makes the deaf hear and the mute speak.”
