< Maliko 9 >
1 Che Yesu ŵapundile kwasalila, “Isyene ngunsalila, apali ŵandu ŵane papapa chiŵaone Akunnungu achitawalaga ni machili kwa matala gakupisyangana akanaŵe kuwa.”
He added, Indeed, I say to you, there are some standing here, who shall not taste death, till they see the Reign of God ushered in with power.
2 Pagapite moŵa nsano ni limo, Che Yesu ŵaajigele che Petulo ni che Yakobo ni Che Yohana, ŵalongene nawo pa chitumbi cheleu pajikape. Kweleko ku meeso ku Che Yesu kwagalawiche paujo pao.
After six days, Jesus took Peter, and James, and John, apart to the top of a high mountain, and was transfigured in their presence.
3 Iwalo yakwe yaliji yeswela mbee yanti mundu jwalijose jwa pachilambo pano ngakupakombola kuswejesya chanti yeleyo.
His garments became glittering, and were like snow, of such whiteness as no fuller on the earth could imitate.
4 Nipele, che Elia ni che Musa ŵakopochele paujo pao ni ŵaliji nkukunguluka ni Che Yesu.
There appeared to them also Elijah and Moses, who were conversing with Jesus.
5 Che Petulo ŵasalile Che Yesu achitiji, “Jwakwiganya, ikaliji yambone kuti uwe tutame panopano. Tutaŵe masakasa gatatu, limo lyenu ni limo li che Musa ni liine li che Elia.”
Then Peter said to Jesus, Rabbi, it is good for us to stay here: let us make three booths, one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah;
6 Che Petulo nganachimanya chakuŵecheta pakuŵa wose ŵajogwepe kwannope.
for he knew not what he said, they were so terrified.
7 Nipele, lyakopochele liunde ni kwaunichila, liloŵe lyakopochele mu liunde lichitiji, “Aju ni Mwanangu jungunnonyela, mumpilikanile jwelejo.”
And there came a cloud which covered them; and out of the cloud issued a voice, which said, This is my Son, the beloved: hear him.
8 Papopo ŵakulijiganya ŵalolite akuno ni akunokuno, nambo nganambona mundu jwine ikaŵe Che Yesu pe.
And instantly, looking about, they saw no person but Jesus and themselves.
9 Paŵatulukaga pa chitumbi, Che Yesu ŵakanyisye ŵanyawo kuti yele iŵaiweni akansalila mundu jwalijose mpaka Mwana jwa Mundu pachachisyuka.
As they went down from the mountain, he charged them not to relate to any person what they had seen, till the Son of Man was risen from the dead.
10 Nipele, ŵakulijiganya ŵagakamulichisye maloŵe go, nambo ŵaliji nkuusyana achinsyene pe, “Kusyuka malumbo gakwe chichi?”
And they took notice of that expression, and inquired among themselves what the rising from the dead could mean.
11 Nipele, ŵausisye Che Yesu, “Ana kwachichi ŵakwiganya Malajisyo akusala kuti, chaiche kaje Che Elia?”
Then they asked him, saying, Why do the scribes affirm that Elijah must come first?
12 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Elo, che Elia chaiche kaje kukuŵika chile indu yose. Nambi kwachichi ilembekwe Mmalembelo ga Akunnungu kuti, Mwana jwa Mundu chasauche kwannope ni kukanikwa?
He answered, Elijah, to consummate the whole, must come first; and, (as it is written of the Son of Man, ) must likewise suffer many things and be contemned.
13 Nambo une ngunsalila, che Elia ŵamasile kwika ni ŵandu ŵampanganyichisye chachilichose chiŵasachile, mpela Malembelo ga Akunnungu yagakuti kusala nkati ŵelewo.”
But I tell you, that Elijah too is come, as was predicted, and they have treated him as they pleased.
14 Che Yesu ni aŵala ŵakulijiganya ŵatatu paŵaaichilile ŵakulijiganya ŵane ŵala, ŵaweni ŵandu ŵajinji ali ŵasyungwile achikanilanaga ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo.
When he returned to the other disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and some scribes disputing with them.
15 Papopo, ŵandu wose paŵambweni Che Yesu, ŵasimosile kwannope, ŵautuchile kukwakomasya.
As soon as the people saw him, they were all struck with awe, and ran to salute him.
16 Che Yesu ŵausisye ŵakulijiganya ŵao, “Ana nkukanilana nawo ichichi?”
And he asked the scribes, About what do you dispute with them?
17 Mundu jumo mu mpingo wa ŵandu mula ŵajanjile, “Jwakwiganya, nannyichenawo mwanangu kukwenu jwakamwilwe ni lisoka lyalikuntendekasya anakombole kuŵecheta.
One of the people answering, said, Rabbi, I have brought you my son, who has a dumb spirit;
18 Katema kose lisoka palikunjinjila, likungwisya paasi ni likuntendekasya mwanache jo chikopoche chiulo nkang'wa, achichilimyaga meeno ni kukakamala chiilu. Naaŵendile ŵakulijiganya ŵenu alikoposye, nambo ŵalepele.”
and wheresoever it seizes him, it dashes him on the ground, where he continues foaming, and grinding his teeth, till his strength is exhausted. And I spoke to your disciples to expel the demon, but they were not able.
19 Nipele, Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao, “Mwanya uŵelesi wangali chikulupi! Ana chindame ni ŵanyamwe mpaka chakachi? Chinampililile mpaka chakachi? Munyichisye mwanache jo.”
Jesus then said, O unbelieving generation! how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? Bring him to me.
20 Ŵannyichisye ku Che Yesu. Lisoka palyambweni Che Yesu, papopo lyantasile njilinjili jwanchanda jo, nombe ŵagwile paasi, ŵagalagete akuno alinkukopoka chiulo kukang'wa.
Accordingly they brought him: and no sooner did he see him, than the spirit threw him into convulsions, so that he foamed, and rolled upon the ground.
21 Che Yesu ŵammusisye atatigwe jwanchanda jo, “Jwanchanda ju yatandite chakachi yelei?” Ŵajanjile, “Chitandile wanache wakwe.
Jesus asked the father, How long is it since this first befell him? He answered, From his infancy;
22 Katema kakajinji lisoka lyo lyangwisyaga pa mooto ni mmeesi kuti lyaulaje. Nambo iŵaga nkukombola kutendekanya chachilichose, ntukolele chanasa ni kutukamusya!”
and often it has thrown him both into the fire, and into the water, to destroy him; but if you can do anything, have compassion upon us and help us.
23 Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Kwachichi nkuti, ‘Iŵaga ngukombola’? Yose ikukomboleka kwa mundu jwakukulupilila.”
Jesus replied, If you can believe; all things are practicable for him who believes.
24 Papopo atatigwe jwanchanda jo ŵanyanyisye, “Ngukulupilila! Nambo chikulupi changu chili chamwana, mungamuchisye ngole chikulupi chachikulungwa.”
The boy's father, crying out immediately, said with tears, I believe; Master, supply the defects of my faith.
25 Che Yesu paŵaweni kuti ŵandu ŵajinji ali nkusongangana paujo pao, walijamwiche lisoka lila ni kulisalila, “Mmwe lisoka linkulekasya kuŵecheta ni kupilikana, ngunlamula nkopoche mwa jwanchanda ju, ni nkajinjila sooni.”
When Jesus saw that the people came crowding upon him, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, Dumb and deaf spirit, come out of him, I command you, and enter no more into him.
26 Pelepo lisoka lyanyanyisye, lyangwisisye njilinjili jwanchanda jo ni lyankopweche. Jwanchanda jwaoneche mpela jwammwe, ni ŵandu ŵane ŵatite “Awile!”
Then, having cried aloud and severely convulsed him, it came out, and he appeared as one dead, insomuch that many said, He is dead.
27 Nambo Che Yesu ŵankamwile nkono jwanchanda jo, ŵankamwisye ajimuche, nombejo ŵajimi.
But Jesus taking him by the hand, raised him, and he stood up.
28 Che Yesu paŵajinjile mu nyuumba, ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵausisye pajika, “Kwachichi twalepele kulikoposya lisoka lyo?”
When Jesus was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we expel the demon?
29 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Lisoka lyanti yelei ngalikukopoka kwa litala lyalililyose ikaŵe kwa kwapopelela Akunnungu pe.”
He answered, This kind can not be dislodged unless by prayer and fasting.
30 Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵatyosile peuto pala, ni ŵajendelechele ni ulendo kupitila ku chilambo cha ku Galilaya. Nganasaka mundu jwalijose akumanye kuŵaliji,
Having left that place, they pass through Galilee; and he was desirous that no person should know it,
31 pakuŵa ŵaliji nkwajiganya ŵakulijiganya ŵao, ŵasalile, “Mwana jwa Mundu chaŵichikwe mmakono mwa ŵandu, nombewo chammbulaje. Nambo pa lyuŵa lyaatatu chiulajikwa pe chasyuche.”
for he was instructing his disciples. And he said to them, The Son of Man will soon be delivered into the hands of men, who will kill him; and after he is killed, he will rise again the third day.
32 Nambo ŵakulijiganya ŵao nganagamanyililaga malumbo ga maloŵe go, ni ŵajogwepe kumbusya.
But they understood not what he meant, and were afraid to ask him.
33 Paŵaiche musi wa ku Kapelenaumu ŵajinjile mu nyuumba, nombe Che Yesu ŵausisye ŵakulijiganya ŵao, “Ana mwitala mula mwakanilanaga ichichi?”
When he was come to Capernaum, being in the house, he asked them, What were you debating amongst yourselves by the way?
34 Nambo ŵanyawo ŵamyalele, pakuŵa paŵaliji mwitala mula, ŵaliji nkukanilana yankati nduni jwali jwankulungwa mwa ŵanyawo.
But they were silent; for they had debated amongst themselves by the way, who should be greatest.
35 Che Yesu ŵatemi paasi, ni ŵaaŵilasile ŵakulijiganya ŵao likumi ni ŵaŵili ŵaasalile, “Mundu jwakusaka kuŵa jwankulu akusachilwa alitulusye ni kuŵa jwannandi ni katumetume jwa wose.”
Then having sat down, he called the twelve, and said to them, If any man would be first, he shall be the last of all, and the servant of all.
36 Sooni ŵanjigele mwanache ni kunjimika pasikati jao, ŵanjangete ni kwasalila,
And he took a child, and placed him in the midst of them, and holding him in his arms, said to them,
37 “Jwalijose jwakumpochela mwanache mpela aju mu liina lyangu, akuumbochela une, ni mundu jwakuumbochela une akwapochela ŵelewo ŵandumile une.”
Whosoever shall receive one such child on my account, receives me; and whosoever shall receive me, receives not me, but him who sent me.
38 Che Yohana ŵaasalile Che Yesu, “Jwakwiganya, twammweni mundu ali nkugakoposya masoka mu liina lyenu, ni twankanyisye ligongo nganaŵa njetu.”
Then John said to him, Rabbi, we saw one expelling demons in your name, who follows not us, and we forbade him, because he does not follow us.
39 Nambo Che Yesu ŵatite, “Kasimunkanya, pakuŵa ngapagwa mundu jwakupanganya yakusimonjeka kwa liina lyangu ni papopo kumechetela gangalumbana.
Jesus answered, Forbid him not; for there is none that works a miracle in my name, that can readily speak evil of me.
40 Ligongo mundu jwalijose jwangakutukanila ali pamo ni uwe.
For whosoever is not against you is for you.
41 Isyene ngunsalila, mundu jwalijose jwakumpa ngao wa meesi ga kung'wa, ligongo mwanya ndi ŵandu ŵakwe Kilisito, isyene jwelejo chapochele mbote jakwe.
For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink on my account, because you are Christ's; indeed, I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.
42 “Mundu jwalijose juchantendekasye jumo jwa achanandi ŵa ŵakungulupilila une atende sambi, ikaliji yambone kwa jwelejo litaŵikwe liganga lyekulungwa lya kusyajila pa lukosi pao ni kwaponya mu bahali kupunda kulamulikwa ni Akunnungu.
But whoever shall ensnare any of the little ones, who believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were fastened to his neck, and that he were thrown into the sea.
43 Iŵaga nkono wenu ukunneŵasya, mmukate! Mmbaya kwinjila mu umi ni nkono umo, kupunda kuŵa ni makono gaŵili ni kuponyekwa pa mooto wangasimika, moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (Geenna )
Moreover, if your hand ensnare you, cut it off; it is better for you to enter maimed into life, than having two hands to go into hell, into the unquenchable fire; (Geenna )
44 Kweleko mbisu ngasikuwa ni mooto wakwe ngaukusima.
where their worm dies not, and their fire is not quenched.
45 Ni iŵaga lukongolo lwenu lukunneŵasya, mmukate! Mmbaya kwinjila mu umi ni lukongolo lumo kupunda kuŵa ni makongolo gaŵili ni kuponyekwa ku jehanamu pa mooto wangasimika, moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (Geenna )
And if your foot ensnare you, cut it off; it is better for you to enter lame into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the unquenchable fire; (Geenna )
46 Kweleko mbisu ngasikuwa ni mooto wakwe ngaukusima.
where their worm dies not, and their fire is not quenched.
47 Iyoyo peyo iŵaga liso lyenu likunneŵasya, nlikolopole! Mbaya kwinjila ku umwenye wa Akunnungu ni liso limo kupunda kuŵa ni meeso gaŵili ni kuponyekwa pa mooto wangasimika, moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (Geenna )
And if your eye ensnare you, pull it out; it is better for you to enter one-eyed into the kingdom of God, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire; (Geenna )
48 Kweleko mbisu ngasikuwa ni mooto wakwe ngaukusima.
where their worm dies not, and their fire is not quenched.
49 “Pakuŵa jwalijose chaachiswejeswa ni mooto mpela mbopesi ijikuti pakuswejeswa ni njete.
For every one shall be seasoned with fire; as every sacrifice is seasoned with salt.
50 “Njete jili jambone, nambo njete jasoyesyaga kulasa kwakwe, chintaje chichi kuti unonye wakwe uujile sooni? “Nkolanje njete ja uganja pasikati jenu, ntamanje mu chitendewele.”
Salt is good; but if the salt become tasteless, with what will you season it? Preserve salt in yourselves, and maintain peace with one another.
