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.
And he said to them, Verily I say to you, that there are some of them that stand here who shall not taste death, till they have seen 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.
And after six days, Jesus taketh [with him] Peter, and James, and John, and leadeth them up upon a high mountain apart by themselves; and he was transfigured before them.
3 Zyakusama zyakwe zyakangayima, zyakatubisisya kwiindilila loko kutuba kwiinda chintu chitubisisya munyika chinga chilakonzya kupenda chimwi.
And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller on earth can whiten them.
4 Mpawo Elayija kali aMozesi wakalibonya kulimbabo alimwi wakalikwambula a Jesu.
And there appeared to them Elijah, with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus.
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”.
And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.
6 (Takalizi zyakwamba, nkambo wakali yowede.)
For he knew not what to say: for they were greatly terrified.
7 Ijoba lyakasika akubavumba. Mpawo ijwi lyakazwa mujoba,”Ooyu ngomwana wangu ngundiyandisya. Amumuswiilile”.
And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.
8 Aboobo, nibakalanga kumbali, bakabona kakutachikwe muntu akati kabo pesi Jesu alikke.
And suddenly, when they had looked around, they saw no man any more, save Jesus only with themselves.
9 Nibakalikuya buseluka kuzwa achilundu, wakabalayilila kuti tabelede kubuzya kufumbwa omwe nzibakabona kusikila Mwana aMuntu akabuke kuzwa kubafu.
And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were risen from the dead.
10 Mpo bakabamba twaambo twabo beni, pesi bakazuwisyana lwabo beni ninzi “Kubuka kuzwa kubafu” zyambaayi.
And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with another what the rising from the dead should mean.
11 Bakamubuzya, “Nkambonzi balembi nibakati Eliya nguyelede kutalika kusika?”
And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elijah must first come?
12 Wakati kulimbabo, “Eliya ulelede kutalika kusika kuzobambulula zintu zyoonse. Lino nkaambonzi nikulembedwe kuti Mwana waMuntu nelede kufwabisigwa kuzintu zyiingi akunyonganisigwa?
And he answered and told them, Elijah verily cometh first, and restoreth all things; and how it is written concerning the Son of man, that he must suffer many things, and be set at naught.
13 Pesi ndamwambila kuti Eliya wasika, bakachita kufumbwa nzibayanda kuchita alinguwe mbuli mbukulembedwe atala anguwe”.
But I say to you, that Elijah is indeed come, and they have done to him whatever they pleased, as it is written concerning him.
14 Mpawo nibakasika kuli basikwiiya, bakabona makamu abantu kabazyungulikide.
And when he came to [his] disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and the scribes questioning with them.
15 Mpo balembi bakali kukazyanya ambabo. Lino nibakabona Jesu, makamu woonse akagamba nibakamuchijanina bakamujuzya.
And immediately all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed, and running to [him], saluted him.
16 Wakabuzya basikwiiya bakwe, “Mulikukazyananzi ambabo?”
And he asked the scribes, What question ye with them?
17 Umwi wakalinkamu wakasandula, “Omwiiyi, ndeeta mwana wangu kulinduwe ulamuuya umwiita kuti atambuulipe.
And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought to thee my son, who hath a dumb spirit;
18 Umumana manguzu akumuwunsizya ansi akuzwa kkovu mumulomo, ngawayuma ntwiinyo, akuyuma mubili. Ndakabuzya basikwiiya bako kuti bamugusye asi bakakachilwa”.
And wherever he taketh him, he teareth him; and he foameth and gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth away; and I spoke to thy disciples that they should cast him out, and they could not.
19 Wakabasandula, “Mazyalane atasyomi, ndakkala andinywe kwachiindi chilibuti? Ndiyomukombelezya kuchiindi chilibuti? Mumweete kuli ndime”
He answered him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you, how long shall I suffer you? bring him to me.
20 Bakamweta mulombe kulinguwe. Kuchindi muuya nwakabona Jesu, mpawo awo lyakamuwisya lyamupa kugwigwima. Mulombe wakawida ansi akuzwa ikkovu mumulomo.
And they brought him to him: and when he saw him, immediately the spirit tore him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed, foaming.
21 Jesu wakabuzya wisi, “Kwaba chiindi chilibiyeni kazichitikana?” Wisi wakati, “Kuzwa kachili mwanikenike”.
And he asked his father, How long is it since this came to him? and he said, From a child.
22 Chimuwisizya mumulilo kkana mumanzi akwezya kumujeyakuti kukonzya kuchita kufumbwa, tufwide luzyalo utugwasye”.
And often it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us.
23 Jesu wakati kulinguwe, “Kuti kazikonzeka zyoonse zintu zilakonzeka kuliyoyo usyoma!”
Jesus said to him, If thou canst believe, all things [are] possible to him that believeth.
24 Mpawo wisi wamwana wakalila akwamba kuti, “Ndimusyomi! kondigwasya akutasyoma kwangu!”
And immediately the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou my unbelief.
25 Jesu nakabona makamu kabachijanina, wakatanda myuuya mibi akwaamba kuti, “Nutambuli nutamvwi ndakwambila kuti, zwamulinguwe, utazobi nunjila lubo mulinguwe”.
When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying to him, [Thou] dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.
26 Lyakalila akugwigwimya mulombe akuzwa mulinguwe. Mulombe wakalanga mbuli wakalifwide, biingi bakati,”Ulifwide”.
And [the spirit] cried, and rent him severely, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; so that many said, He is dead.
27 Pele Jesu wakamubeza aluboko wamunyampula, mulombe wakayimikila.
But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose.
28 Jesu nakasika munganda, basikwiiya bakamubuzya chakusisikizya, “Nkambonzi nitwatalitanda?”
And when he had come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast him out?
29 Wakati kulumbabo, “Ezi zyamisyobo oyu tazitandiki pesi akukomba”.
And he said to them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.
30 Bakeenda kuzwa awo akwiinda muGalilaya. Takalikuyanda kufumbwa kuti bazibe nkubakabede,
And they departed thence, and passed through Galilee; and he would not that any man should know [it].
31 nakalikuyiisya basikwiiya bakwe. Wakati kulimbabo, “Mwanamuntu uyopendekezegwa mumaboko amuntu, alimwi bayomujeya. Natayobikwe kulufu, nikutakayinde mazuba atatu uyobuka kuzwa kubafu.
For he taught his disciples, and said to them, The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they will kill him; and after that he is killed, he will rise the third day.
32 Pesi tebakazimvwisisisya pe nzyakali kwamba, alimwi bakalikuyowa kumubuzya.
But they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask him.
33 Mpawo nibakasika kuKkapenamu. Mpawo nakanjila munganda wakababuzya, Mwalikwambanzi munzila?”
And he came to Capernaum: and being in the house, he asked them, What was it that ye disputed among yourselves by the way?
34 Pesi bakawumuna. Mbulikuti bakalibuya bukazyanya awumwi amwenzinyina kabali munzila atala akuti ngwani mupati.
But they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed among themselves, who [should be] 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 saith to them, If any man desireth to be first, [the same] shall be last of all, and servant of all.
36 Wakabweza mwana munini wakamibikka akati kabo. Wakamubweza akumubikka amakwiko akwe alimwi wakati kulimbabo,
And he took a child, and set him in the midst of them: and when he had taken 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 shall receive one of such children in my name, receiveth me: and whoever shall receive me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.
38 Joni wakati, “Muyiisi, twabona umwi katanda badayimona munzina lyako alimwi twamukasya, nkaambo tatutobeli pe”.
And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out demons in thy name, and he followeth not us; and we forbad him, because he followeth not us.
39 Pesi Jesu wakati, “Mutamukasyi, mbulikuti takwe utakachite milimu mipati muzina lyangu alimwi mbulikuzwa awo bakambule kufumbwa zili atala andime.
But Jesus said, Forbid him not; for there is no man who shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me.
40 Kufumbwa utakazyani andiswe ngwesu.
For he that is not against us, is on our part.
41 Kufumbwa ukupa nkomesi yamanzi kuti unywe muzina lyangu nkambo uzwa kwaKilisito, nchobeni ndamwambila kuti, takoyoyibulikilwa impindu yakwe.
For whoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye belong to Christ, verily I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.
42 Kufumbwa uchita banikenike bandisyoma kui bae, zinoli zibotu kulinguwe kuti abeze ibwe asungililwe munsingo yakwe alimwi awalwe mulwizi.
And whoever shall cause one of [these] little ones that believe in me, to fall into sin, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.
43 Naa kuboko kwako kwakubisizya, kudunsule. Nchibotu kunjila mubwami bwakubotelwa kwiinda kuba amaboko abili alimwi wakuwida mubbibi lyamulilo, kumulilo utazimi. (Geenna g1067)
And if thy hand causeth thee to fall into sin, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: (Geenna g1067)
44 Munchali 44mutabikkilizidwe mu ULB. Amba kuti ichikoye chabo tachikoyofwa, alimwi mulilo tukoyozimwa.
Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
45 Na kuulu kwako kwakuchita kuti ubisye, kudunsule. Nchibotu kunjila mubuumi bwakubotelwa kuli chilema kwiinda kuba amawulu abili alimwi wakuwida mubbibi lyamulilo. (Geenna g1067)
And if thy foot causeth thee to fall into sin, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: (Geenna g1067)
46 Munchali 46 tabikkidwe pe mu ULB. Amba kuti ichikonye chabo tachikoyofwa, alimwi mulilo tukoyozimwa.
Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
47 Na liso lyako lyakuchita kuti ubisye, ligusye. Nchibotu kunjila mubwami bwakujulu aliso limwi kwiinda kuba ameso abili wakuwisigilwa mubbibi lyamulilo, (Geenna g1067)
And if thy eye causeth thee to fall into sin, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes, to be cast into hell-fire. (Geenna g1067)
48 kutayofwa kwachikonye chabo, mulilo tukoyozima.
Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
49 Nkaambo moonse muyolungwa amunyo wamulilo.
For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall 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 hath lost its saltness, with what will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.
