< Maliko 1 >

1 Jeleji jili ndande ja Ngani Jambone ji Che Yesu Kilisito, Mwana jwa Akunnungu.
The beginning of the Good News of Jesus Christ, the 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, "Look, I send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.
3 Mundu akunyanyisya mwipululu achitiji, ‘Mwakolochesye Ambuje litala lyao, ngolosye mwakusaka kupita.’”
The voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Prepare the way of the Lord. Make his roads straight.'"
4 Che Yohana Ŵakubatisya ŵatamaga mwipululu ni kwalalichila ŵandu aleche sambi ni kwabatisya kuti Akunnungu ŵalechelesye sambi syao.
John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for forgiveness 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 went out to him and all those from Jerusalem, and they were baptized by him in the Jordan river, 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.
And John was clothed with camel's hair and a leather belt around his waist. He ate 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 preached, saying, "After me comes he who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen.
8 Uneji ngumbatisya ni meesi, nambo jwelejo chaachimbatisya kwa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu.”
I baptized you in water, but he will baptize 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.
And it happened in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
10 Che Yesu paŵakopokaga mmeesi, ŵakuweni kwinani kuugwiche ni Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ŵantuluchile achiŵaga mpela nguunda.
Immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens parting, and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.
11 Liloŵe lya Akunnungu lyapikaniche kutyochela kwinani lichitiji, “Mmwejo ni Mwanangu jungunnonyela, nonyelwe nomwe.”
And a voice came out of the sky, "You are my beloved Son, with you I am well pleased."
12 Papopo Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ŵanlongwesye Che Yesu kwaula mwipululu.
And immediately the Spirit drove him out 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.
He was in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals; and the angels were serving him.
14 Che Yohana paŵataŵikwe mu nyuumba jakutaŵilwa ŵandu, Che Yesu ŵajawile ku chilambo cha ku Galilaya kwalalichila ŵandu Ngani Jambone ja Akunnungu.
Now after John was taken into custody, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the Good News of God,
15 Ŵatite, “Katema kaiche ni Umwenye wa Akunnungu uŵandichile. Nneche sambi syenu ni kujikulupilila Ngani Jambone!”
and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is near. Repent, and believe in the Good News."
16 Che Yesu paŵapitaga mungulugulu litanda lya Galilaya, ŵaweni ŵakukoka ŵaŵili, che Simoni pamo ni che Andulea mpwakwe ali nkukoka somba kwa lwau.
And passing along by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew the brother of Simon casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.
17 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Munguye, none chinantende ŵanyamwe mme ŵakwaikanawo ŵandu kwa Ambuje.”
Jesus said to them, "Come, follow me, and I will make you into fishers of people."
18 Papopo ŵalesile nyau syao ni kwakuya.
And immediately they left the 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.
And going on a little further, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John, his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.
20 Papopo Che Yesu paŵaweni, ŵaaŵilasile, ni ŵanyawo ŵalesile che Sebedayo atati ŵao mu ngalaŵa pamo ni ŵakwapanganyichisya masengo, ni ŵakuiye Che Yesu.
And immediately he called them, and they left their father, Zebedee, in the boat with the hired servants, and went after 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 into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath day he entered into the synagogue and taught.
22 Ŵandu wose ŵaŵampilikene ŵasimosile ni uwiganye wakwe, pakuŵa nganajiganya mpela ŵakwiganya Malajisyo, nambo ŵajiganyaga nti mundu jwali ni ulamusi.
And they were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as having authority, and not as the scribes.
23 Papopo mundu jwakamwilwe ni lisoka juŵaliji mu nyuumba ja kusimanilana jila ŵanyanyisye,
And just then there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he shouted,
24 achitiji, “Ana nkusaka kututenda ichichi, mmwe Che Yesu jwa ku Nasaleti? Ana nnyiche kukutujonanga? Ngummanyilila kuti mmwejo ndi Jwanswela jwa Akunnungu!”
saying, "What do we have to do with you, Jesus, Nazarene? Have you come to destroy us? I know you who you are: the Holy One of God."
25 Che Yesu ŵalikalipile lisoka lyo achitiji, “Mmyalale! Munkopoche mundu jo.”
And Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him."
26 Nipele lisoka lyo lyantinganyisye mundu jula kwa machili ni kunyanyisya, ni lyakopweche.
And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, 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!”
And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, "What is this? A new teaching? For with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him."
28 Nipele, ngani jakwe Che Yesu jajenele kwachitema palipose, kuchilambo chose cha ku Galilaya.
And at once the news of him went out everywhere into all the region of Galilee and its surrounding area.
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.
And Immediately, when they had come out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30 Akwegwao che Simoni jwankongwe, ŵagonile pachindanda ali nkulwala chiilu, ni Che Yesu naikape ŵasalilwe yankati jwakulwala jo.
Now Simon's mother-in-law was sick in bed with a fever, and immediately they told him about her.
31 Nipele Che Yesu ŵanjaulile jwankongwe jo ni ŵankamwile nkono ni kunjinamukula. Ulwele ula wannesile nipele ŵatandite kwatelechela.
And he came and took her by the hand, and raised her up. The fever left her, and she served them.
32 Ligulo, lyuŵa lili litiŵile, ŵandu ŵaajauchisye Che Yesu ŵakulwala wose ni ŵaŵakamwilwe ni masoka.
At evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all who were sick, and those who were possessed by demons.
33 Ŵandu wose ŵa musi wo ŵasongangene paluŵala lwa nyuumba.
And all the city was gathered together 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 who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons. He did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew him.
35 Kundaŵipe kukanaŵe kucha, Che Yesu ŵakopweche mu nyuumba jo ni kwaula paasa musi, pangali ŵandu kukupopela.
And early in the morning, while it was still dark, he rose up and went out, and departed into a deserted place, and prayed there.
36 Che Simoni ni achinjakwe ŵala ŵajawile kukwasosa.
And Simon and those who were with him followed after him;
37 Paŵammweni ŵansalile, “Ŵandu wose ali nkunsosa mmwe.”
and they found him, and told him, "Everyone is looking for you."
38 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Tukusachilwa tujaule mmisinda jine jajiŵandichile akuno, ni kweleko ngusachilwa ngalalichile Ngani Jambone, pakuŵa yelei ni inyichile.”
And he said to them, "Let us go somewhere else into the next towns, that I may preach there also, because I came out for this reason."
39 Nipele, Che Yesu ŵajesilejesile ku Galilaya kose, achilalichilaga mmajumba gao ga kupopelela ni kugakoposya masoka.
And he went into their synagogues throughout all Galilee, preaching and casting out demons.
40 Lyuŵa limo mundu jwa matana ŵaiche ku Che Yesu ni kwatindiŵalila ni kwachondelela kuti, “Mwasakaga muuswejesye!”
And a leper came to him, begging him, and knelt down and said to him, "Lord, if you want to, you can make me clean."
41 Che Yesu ŵankolele chanasa, ŵajongwele nkono wao ni ŵankwaiye ni kwasalila, “Ngusaka, Nswejele!”
And being moved with compassion, he stretched out his hand, and touched him, and said to him, "I am willing. Be cleansed."
42 Papopo matana gakwe gala gannesile ni ŵaswejele.
And immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was made clean.
43 Nipele Che Yesu ŵansalile ajaule achinjamukaga kwa machili, achinsalilaga,
And he strictly warned him, and immediately sent him out,
44 “Nnole, munansalile mundu jwalijose chindu chi, nambo njaule nkalilosye kwa jwambopesi, nkatyosye mbopesi mpela iŵatite pakusala che Musa kwalosya ŵandu wose kuti nnamile.”
and said to him, "See you say nothing to anyone, but go show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing the things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them."
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 he went out, and began to proclaim it freely, and to spread about the matter, so that Jesus could no more openly enter into a city, but was outside in desert places: and they came to him from everywhere.
