Maliko 1
1 Jeleji jili ndande ja Ngani Jambone ji Che Yesu Kilisito, Mwana jwa Akunnungu.
The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, Son of God.
2 Mpela ijitite pakulembekwa mmalembo ga che Isaya juŵaliji jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu, “Akunnungu ŵatite, ‘Nguntuma jwantenga jwangu annongolele, jwejejo ni juchankolochesye litala lyenu.’
As it is written in Isaiah the Prophet, "Behold, I send my messenger before thee, who shall prepare thy way:"
3 Mundu akunyanyisya mwipululu achitiji, ‘Mwakolochesye Ambuje litala lyao, ngolosye mwakusaka kupita.’”
"The voice of one proclaiming in the wilderness, Prepare a way for the Lord, make for him a straight passage:"
4 Che Yohana Ŵakubatisya ŵatamaga mwipululu ni kwalalichila ŵandu aleche sambi ni kwabatisya kuti Akunnungu ŵalechelesye sambi syao.
thus came John immersing in the wilderness, and publishing the immersion of reformation for the remission of sins.
5 Ŵandu achajinji kutyochela chilambo cha Ŵayahudi ni musi wa ku Yelusalemu wose ŵajawile kukwapikanila che Yohana, ŵajitichisye sambi syao nombejo ŵabatisye mu lusulo lwa Yolodani.
And all the country of Judea, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, resorted to him, and were immersed by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
6 Che Yohana ŵaliji awasile mwinjilo uwapotekwe ni manyunya ga chinyama chachikuŵilanjikwa ngamia ni nkaanda wa lipende nchiunu. Nombejo ŵalyaga itete ni uchi.
Now John's clothing was of camel's hair, tied around his waist with a leather girdle: and he lived upon locusts and wild honey.
7 Ni ŵalalichilaga kwa ŵandu kuti, “Panyuma pangu akwika jwali ni machili kumbunda une. None nganguŵajilwa namose kukotama ni kugopola ngoji sya italawanda yakwe.
And he proclaimed, saying, One mightier than I comes after me, whose shoe-latchet I am unworthy to stoop down and untie.
8 Uneji ngumbatisya ni meesi, nambo jwelejo chaachimbatisya kwa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu.”
I, indeed, have immersed you in water; but he will immerse you in the Holy Spirit.
9 Moŵa go, Che Yesu ŵaiche kutyochela musi wa ku Nasaleti wauli mu chilambo cha ku Galilaya ni ŵabatiswe ni che Yohana mu lusulo lwa Yolodani.
At that time Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee to the Jordan, and was immersed by John.
10 Che Yesu paŵakopokaga mmeesi, ŵakuweni kwinani kuugwiche ni Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ŵantuluchile achiŵaga mpela nguunda.
As soon as he arose out of the water, he saw the sky part asunder, and the Spirit descend upon him like a dove.
11 Liloŵe lya Akunnungu lyapikaniche kutyochela kwinani lichitiji, “Mmwejo ni Mwanangu jungunnonyela, nonyelwe nomwe.”
And a voice from heaven, which said, Thou art my Son, the beloved, in whom I delight.
12 Papopo Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ŵanlongwesye Che Yesu kwaula mwipululu.
Immediately after this, the spirit conveyed him into the wilderness;
13 Ni ŵatemi mwipululu mo moŵa alobaini achilinjikwaga ni Shetani. Kukoko ŵatamaga pamo ni inyama ya mwitinji, nambo achikatumetume ŵa kwinani ŵaliji nkwakamuchisya.
and he continued in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satan; and was among the wild beasts; and the heavenly messengers ministered to him.
14 Che Yohana paŵataŵikwe mu nyuumba jakutaŵilwa ŵandu, Che Yesu ŵajawile ku chilambo cha ku Galilaya kwalalichila ŵandu Ngani Jambone ja Akunnungu.
But after John's imprisonment, Jesus went to Galilee, proclaiming the good tidings of the Reign of God.
15 Ŵatite, “Katema kaiche ni Umwenye wa Akunnungu uŵandichile. Nneche sambi syenu ni kujikulupilila Ngani Jambone!”
The time, he said, is accomplished, the Reign of God approaches; reform, and believe the good tidings.
16 Che Yesu paŵapitaga mungulugulu litanda lya Galilaya, ŵaweni ŵakukoka ŵaŵili, che Simoni pamo ni che Andulea mpwakwe ali nkukoka somba kwa lwau.
Then walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew, Simon's brother, casting a drag net into the sea, for they were fishers.
17 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Munguye, none chinantende ŵanyamwe mme ŵakwaikanawo ŵandu kwa Ambuje.”
Jesus said to them, Come with me, and I will cause you to be fishers of men.
18 Papopo ŵalesile nyau syao ni kwakuya.
Immediately they left their nets, and followed him.
19 Che Yesu paŵajawile mmbujo kanandi, ŵaweni che Yakobo ni che Yohana, ŵanache ŵa che Sebedayo. Ni ŵanyawo ŵaliji mu ngalaŵa jao achisaulaga nyau syao.
Passing on a little, and seeing James, son of Zebedee, with John his brother, who were mending their nets in a bark,
20 Papopo Che Yesu paŵaweni, ŵaaŵilasile, ni ŵanyawo ŵalesile che Sebedayo atati ŵao mu ngalaŵa pamo ni ŵakwapanganyichisya masengo, ni ŵakuiye Che Yesu.
he immediately called them; and leaving their father Zebedee in the bark with the hired servants, they accompanied him.
21 Che Yesu pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaiche musi wa Kapelenaumu, ni palyaiche Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila, Che Yesu ŵajinjile mu nyuumba ja kusimanilana Ŵayahudi, ni ŵatandite kwajiganya ŵandu maloŵe gambone ga Akunnungu.
And they went to Capernaum; and on the Sabbath he repaired directly to the synagogue, and instructed the people,
22 Ŵandu wose ŵaŵampilikene ŵasimosile ni uwiganye wakwe, pakuŵa nganajiganya mpela ŵakwiganya Malajisyo, nambo ŵajiganyaga nti mundu jwali ni ulamusi.
who were filled with admiration at his manner of teaching; for he taught as one having authority, and not as the scribes.
23 Papopo mundu jwakamwilwe ni lisoka juŵaliji mu nyuumba ja kusimanilana jila ŵanyanyisye,
Now there was in their synagogue a man possessed with an unclean spirit, who cried out,
24 achitiji, “Ana nkusaka kututenda ichichi, mmwe Che Yesu jwa ku Nasaleti? Ana nnyiche kukutujonanga? Ngummanyilila kuti mmwejo ndi Jwanswela jwa Akunnungu!”
Ah! Jesus of Nazareth, what hast thou to do with us? Art thou come to destroy us? I know who thou art, the Holy One of God.
25 Che Yesu ŵalikalipile lisoka lyo achitiji, “Mmyalale! Munkopoche mundu jo.”
Jesus rebuking him, said, Be silent, and come out of him.
26 Nipele lisoka lyo lyantinganyisye mundu jula kwa machili ni kunyanyisya, ni lyakopweche.
Then the unclean spirit threw him into convulsions; and, raising loud cried, came out of him:
27 Ŵandu wose ŵasimosile nnope ni ŵaliji nkuusyana, “Ana yelei ni yatiuli? Uli, gelega gali majiganyo ga sambano? Mundu ju akwete ulamusi wa kugakoposya namose masoka, nombego gakwajitichisya!”
at which they were all so amazed, that they asked one another, What does this mean? For he commands with authority even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.
28 Nipele, ngani jakwe Che Yesu jajenele kwachitema palipose, kuchilambo chose cha ku Galilaya.
And thenceforth his fame spread through all the region of Galilee.
29 Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao pamo ni che Yakobo ni che Yohana ŵakopweche mu nyuumba ja kusimanilana jila ni kwaula ku nyuumba ja ŵanya che Simoni ni che Andulea.
As soon as they were come out of the synagogue, they went with James and John into the house of Simon and Andrew,
30 Akwegwao che Simoni jwankongwe, ŵagonile pachindanda ali nkulwala chiilu, ni Che Yesu naikape ŵasalilwe yankati jwakulwala jo.
where Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, of which they immediately acquainted Jesus.
31 Nipele Che Yesu ŵanjaulile jwankongwe jo ni ŵankamwile nkono ni kunjinamukula. Ulwele ula wannesile nipele ŵatandite kwatelechela.
And he came, and taking her by the hand, raised her; instantly the fever left her, and she entertained them.
32 Ligulo, lyuŵa lili litiŵile, ŵandu ŵaajauchisye Che Yesu ŵakulwala wose ni ŵaŵakamwilwe ni masoka.
In the evening, after sunset, they brought to him all the sick, and the demoniacs;
33 Ŵandu wose ŵa musi wo ŵasongangene paluŵala lwa nyuumba.
the whole city being assembled at the door.
34 Che Yesu ŵalamisye ŵandu ŵajinji ŵaŵaliji ni ilwele yakupisyangana ni kugakoposya masoka gamajinji gagaliji mwa ŵandu ŵala. Nganiŵapa masoka lipesa lyakuŵecheta chachilichose ligongo gaamanyilile ali ŵaani.
And he healed many persons affected with various diseases, and expelled many demons, whom he permitted not to speak, because they knew him.
35 Kundaŵipe kukanaŵe kucha, Che Yesu ŵakopweche mu nyuumba jo ni kwaula paasa musi, pangali ŵandu kukupopela.
On the morrow, having risen before dawn, he went out, and retired to a solitary place, and prayed there.
36 Che Simoni ni achinjakwe ŵala ŵajawile kukwasosa.
And Simon and his company went in quest of him,
37 Paŵammweni ŵansalile, “Ŵandu wose ali nkunsosa mmwe.”
and having found him, said to him, Every person seeks you.
38 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Tukusachilwa tujaule mmisinda jine jajiŵandichile akuno, ni kweleko ngusachilwa ngalalichile Ngani Jambone, pakuŵa yelei ni inyichile.”
Jesus said, Let us go to the neighboring boroughs, to make proclamation there also: for I came out with this design.
39 Nipele, Che Yesu ŵajesilejesile ku Galilaya kose, achilalichilaga mmajumba gao ga kupopelela ni kugakoposya masoka.
Accordingly he proclaimed in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and expelled demons.
40 Lyuŵa limo mundu jwa matana ŵaiche ku Che Yesu ni kwatindiŵalila ni kwachondelela kuti, “Mwasakaga muuswejesye!”
And a leper came to him, and on his knees entreated him, saying, If you will, you can cleanse me.
41 Che Yesu ŵankolele chanasa, ŵajongwele nkono wao ni ŵankwaiye ni kwasalila, “Ngusaka, Nswejele!”
Jesus had compassion, and stretching out his hand and touching him, said, I will, be you clean.
42 Papopo matana gakwe gala gannesile ni ŵaswejele.
This he had no sooner uttered, than the leprosy departed from the man, and he was cleansed.
43 Nipele Che Yesu ŵansalile ajaule achinjamukaga kwa machili, achinsalilaga,
Then Jesus strictly charging him, and dismissing him,
44 “Nnole, munansalile mundu jwalijose chindu chi, nambo njaule nkalilosye kwa jwambopesi, nkatyosye mbopesi mpela iŵatite pakusala che Musa kwalosya ŵandu wose kuti nnamile.”
said, See you tell nothing of this to any man; but go, show yourself to the priest; and offer for your cleansing the things prescribed by Moses, that it may be notified to the people.
45 Nambo mundu jula paŵakopweche, ŵatandite kwenesya ngani jo papalipose, namose Che Yesu nganakombola kwinjila sooni mmusi kwakulilosya. Nambo ŵatemi paasa musi, pangali ŵandu, atamuno yeleyo ŵandu kopochela papalipose ŵanjaulile kukokopeko.
But the man, as soon as he was gone, began to blaze this story, talking openly everywhere, insomuch that Jesus could no longer publicly appear in the city; but remained without in solitary places, whither the people resorted to him from all parts.
