< Makko 9 >

1 Wakati kulimbabo, “Nchobeni ndati kuli ndinywe, mpubali bamwi banu bayimvwi awa katakoyofwa banjila kabatana bona Bwami bwakujulu bwa-Leza busika kabuli anguzu.
He said to them, "Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste death until they see the Kingdom of God come with power."
2 Nikwakayinda mazuba alimusanu alimwi, Jesu wakabweza Pita, Jemusi aJoni wakeenda ambabo atala amulundu, lwakwe ambabo. Mpo wakasanduka kunembo lyabo.
After six days Yeshua took with him Peter, Jacob, and John, and brought them up onto a high mountain privately by themselves, and he was changed into another form in front of them.
3 Zyakusama zyakwe zyakangayima, zyakatubisisya kwiindilila loko kutuba kwiinda chintu chitubisisya munyika chinga chilakonzya kupenda chimwi.
His clothing became glistening, exceedingly white, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them.
4 Mpawo Elayija kali aMozesi wakalibonya kulimbabo alimwi wakalikwambula a Jesu.
Elijah and Moses appeared to them, and they were talking with Yeshua.
5 Pita wakasandula akwamba kuti kuli Jesu, “Muyiisi, nchibotu kuba ano toonse, atuyake zilawu zyotatwe, chimwi chibe chako, chimwi chibe chaMozesi alimwi chimwi chibe cha Eliya”.
Peter said to Yeshua, "Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let us make three tents: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."
6 (Takalizi zyakwamba, nkambo wakali yowede.)
For he did not know what to answer, for they became very afraid.
7 Ijoba lyakasika akubavumba. Mpawo ijwi lyakazwa mujoba,”Ooyu ngomwana wangu ngundiyandisya. Amumuswiilile”.
A cloud came, overshadowing them, and a voice came out of the cloud, "This is my beloved Son. Listen to him."
8 Aboobo, nibakalanga kumbali, bakabona kakutachikwe muntu akati kabo pesi Jesu alikke.
Suddenly looking around, they saw no one with them anymore, except Yeshua alone.
9 Nibakalikuya buseluka kuzwa achilundu, wakabalayilila kuti tabelede kubuzya kufumbwa omwe nzibakabona kusikila Mwana aMuntu akabuke kuzwa kubafu.
As they were coming down from the mountain, he commanded them that they should tell no one what things they had seen, until after the Son of Man had risen from the dead.
10 Mpo bakabamba twaambo twabo beni, pesi bakazuwisyana lwabo beni ninzi “Kubuka kuzwa kubafu” zyambaayi.
They kept this saying to themselves, questioning what the "rising from the dead" meant.
11 Bakamubuzya, “Nkambonzi balembi nibakati Eliya nguyelede kutalika kusika?”
They asked him, saying, "Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?"
12 Wakati kulimbabo, “Eliya ulelede kutalika kusika kuzobambulula zintu zyoonse. Lino nkaambonzi nikulembedwe kuti Mwana waMuntu nelede kufwabisigwa kuzintu zyiingi akunyonganisigwa?
And he said to them, "Elijah indeed comes first, and restores all things. And why is it written of the Son of Man that he should suffer many things and be rejected?
13 Pesi ndamwambila kuti Eliya wasika, bakachita kufumbwa nzibayanda kuchita alinguwe mbuli mbukulembedwe atala anguwe”.
But I tell you that Elijah has come, and they have also done to him whatever they wanted to, even as it is written about him."
14 Mpawo nibakasika kuli basikwiiya, bakabona makamu abantu kabazyungulikide.
And when they came to the talmidim, they saw a large crowd around them, and scribes questioning them.
15 Mpo balembi bakali kukazyanya ambabo. Lino nibakabona Jesu, makamu woonse akagamba nibakamuchijanina bakamujuzya.
Immediately all the crowd, when they saw him, were greatly amazed, and running to him greeted him.
16 Wakabuzya basikwiiya bakwe, “Mulikukazyananzi ambabo?”
He asked them, "What are you arguing about with them?"
17 Umwi wakalinkamu wakasandula, “Omwiiyi, ndeeta mwana wangu kulinduwe ulamuuya umwiita kuti atambuulipe.
And one out of the crowd answered him, "Teacher, I brought to you my son, who has a mute spirit;
18 Umumana manguzu akumuwunsizya ansi akuzwa kkovu mumulomo, ngawayuma ntwiinyo, akuyuma mubili. Ndakabuzya basikwiiya bako kuti bamugusye asi bakakachilwa”.
and wherever it seizes him, it throws him down, and he foams at the mouth, and grinds his teeth, and wastes away. I asked your talmidim to cast it out, and they weren't able."
19 Wakabasandula, “Mazyalane atasyomi, ndakkala andinywe kwachiindi chilibuti? Ndiyomukombelezya kuchiindi chilibuti? Mumweete kuli ndime”
And answering, he said to them, "You unbelieving generation, how long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring him to me."
20 Bakamweta mulombe kulinguwe. Kuchindi muuya nwakabona Jesu, mpawo awo lyakamuwisya lyamupa kugwigwima. Mulombe wakawida ansi akuzwa ikkovu mumulomo.
They brought him to him, and when he saw him, immediately the spirit convulsed him, and he fell on the ground, wallowing and foaming at the mouth.
21 Jesu wakabuzya wisi, “Kwaba chiindi chilibiyeni kazichitikana?” Wisi wakati, “Kuzwa kachili mwanikenike”.
He asked his father, "How long has it been since this has come to him?" He said, "From childhood.
22 Chimuwisizya mumulilo kkana mumanzi akwezya kumujeyakuti kukonzya kuchita kufumbwa, tufwide luzyalo utugwasye”.
And it has often cast him both into fire and into water, to destroy him. But if you can do anything, have compassion on us, and help us."
23 Jesu wakati kulinguwe, “Kuti kazikonzeka zyoonse zintu zilakonzeka kuliyoyo usyoma!”
Yeshua said to him, "'If you can?' All things are possible to him who believes."
24 Mpawo wisi wamwana wakalila akwamba kuti, “Ndimusyomi! kondigwasya akutasyoma kwangu!”
Immediately the father of the child cried out and said, "I believe. Help my unbelief."
25 Jesu nakabona makamu kabachijanina, wakatanda myuuya mibi akwaamba kuti, “Nutambuli nutamvwi ndakwambila kuti, zwamulinguwe, utazobi nunjila lubo mulinguwe”.
When Yeshua saw that a crowd came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, "You deaf and mute spirit, I command you, come out of him, and never enter him again."
26 Lyakalila akugwigwimya mulombe akuzwa mulinguwe. Mulombe wakalanga mbuli wakalifwide, biingi bakati,”Ulifwide”.
Having screamed, and convulsed greatly, it came out of him. The boy became like one dead; so much that most of them said, "He is dead."
27 Pele Jesu wakamubeza aluboko wamunyampula, mulombe wakayimikila.
But Yeshua took him by the hand, and raised him up; and he arose.
28 Jesu nakasika munganda, basikwiiya bakamubuzya chakusisikizya, “Nkambonzi nitwatalitanda?”
And when he had come into the house, his talmidim asked him privately, "Why could we not cast it out?"
29 Wakati kulumbabo, “Ezi zyamisyobo oyu tazitandiki pesi akukomba”.
And he said to them, "This kind cannot come out by anything but prayer and fasting."
30 Bakeenda kuzwa awo akwiinda muGalilaya. Takalikuyanda kufumbwa kuti bazibe nkubakabede,
They went out from there, and passed through Galil. He did not want anyone to know it.
31 nakalikuyiisya basikwiiya bakwe. Wakati kulimbabo, “Mwanamuntu uyopendekezegwa mumaboko amuntu, alimwi bayomujeya. Natayobikwe kulufu, nikutakayinde mazuba atatu uyobuka kuzwa kubafu.
For he was teaching his talmidim, and said to them, "The Son of Man is being handed over to the hands of men, and they will kill him; and when he is killed, after three days he will rise again."
32 Pesi tebakazimvwisisisya pe nzyakali kwamba, alimwi bakalikuyowa kumubuzya.
But they did not understand the saying, and were afraid to ask him.
33 Mpawo nibakasika kuKkapenamu. Mpawo nakanjila munganda wakababuzya, Mwalikwambanzi munzila?”
He came to Kfar-Nahum, and when he was in the house he asked them, "What were you arguing on the way?"
34 Pesi bakawumuna. Mbulikuti bakalibuya bukazyanya awumwi amwenzinyina kabali munzila atala akuti ngwani mupati.
But they were silent, for they had disputed one with another on the way about who was the greatest.
35 Nakakkala ansi, wakayita basikwiiya bakwe bali kkumi ababili kabali boonse alimwi wakati kulimbabo, “Na kuli uyanda kuba wakusanguna, welede kuba wakumaninsizya kuli boonse akubalanda boonse”.
And he sat down, and called the twelve; and he said to them, "If anyone wants to be first, he must be last of all, and servant of all."
36 Wakabweza mwana munini wakamibikka akati kabo. Wakamubweza akumubikka amakwiko akwe alimwi wakati kulimbabo,
He took a little child, and set him in the midst of them. Taking him in his arms, he said to them,
37 “Kufumbwa utambula mwana oyu muzina lyangu watambula ndime, kufumbwa oyo unditambula tatambuli ndime pesi utambula oyo wakandituma”.
"Whoever receives one such little child in my name, receives me, and whoever receives me, does not receive me, but him who sent me."
38 Joni wakati, “Muyiisi, twabona umwi katanda badayimona munzina lyako alimwi twamukasya, nkaambo tatutobeli pe”.
John said to him, "Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in your name; and we forbade him, because he was not following us."
39 Pesi Jesu wakati, “Mutamukasyi, mbulikuti takwe utakachite milimu mipati muzina lyangu alimwi mbulikuzwa awo bakambule kufumbwa zili atala andime.
But Yeshua said, "Do not forbid him, for there is no one who will do a mighty work in my name, and be able quickly to speak evil of me.
40 Kufumbwa utakazyani andiswe ngwesu.
For whoever is not against us is for us.
41 Kufumbwa ukupa nkomesi yamanzi kuti unywe muzina lyangu nkambo uzwa kwaKilisito, nchobeni ndamwambila kuti, takoyoyibulikilwa impindu yakwe.
For whoever will give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because you belong to the Messiah, truly I tell you, he will in no way lose his reward.
42 Kufumbwa uchita banikenike bandisyoma kui bae, zinoli zibotu kulinguwe kuti abeze ibwe asungililwe munsingo yakwe alimwi awalwe mulwizi.
Whoever will cause one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it would be better for him if he was thrown into the sea with a millstone hung around his neck.
43 Naa kuboko kwako kwakubisizya, kudunsule. Nchibotu kunjila mubwami bwakubotelwa kwiinda kuba amaboko abili alimwi wakuwida mubbibi lyamulilo, kumulilo utazimi. (Geenna g1067)
If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed, rather than having your two hands to go into Gehinnom, into the unquenchable fire, (Geenna g1067)
44 Munchali 44mutabikkilizidwe mu ULB. Amba kuti ichikoye chabo tachikoyofwa, alimwi mulilo tukoyozimwa.
45 Na kuulu kwako kwakuchita kuti ubisye, kudunsule. Nchibotu kunjila mubuumi bwakubotelwa kuli chilema kwiinda kuba amawulu abili alimwi wakuwida mubbibi lyamulilo. (Geenna g1067)
If your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life lame, rather than having your two feet to be cast into Gehinnom. (Geenna g1067)
46 Munchali 46 tabikkidwe pe mu ULB. Amba kuti ichikonye chabo tachikoyofwa, alimwi mulilo tukoyozimwa.
47 Na liso lyako lyakuchita kuti ubisye, ligusye. Nchibotu kunjila mubwami bwakujulu aliso limwi kwiinda kuba ameso abili wakuwisigilwa mubbibi lyamulilo, (Geenna g1067)
If your eye causes you to stumble, cast it out. It is better for you to enter into the Kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into Gehinnom, (Geenna g1067)
48 kutayofwa kwachikonye chabo, mulilo tukoyozima.
'where their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.'
49 Nkaambo moonse muyolungwa amunyo wamulilo.
For everyone will be salted with fire, and every sacrifice will be salted with salt.
50 Munyo mubotu, pesi kuti munyo wasapuka, ulachitwa biyeni kuti ube munyo lubo? Amube munyo nywebo nobeni, alimwi mube alumuno kuli umwi awumwi”.
Salt is good, but if the salt has lost its saltiness, how can you make it salty? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another."
