Luke 15
1 Now all the tax collectors and sinners were approaching him to hear him.
Mimfutisi mi ziphaku ayi bankua masumu bayiza kutakana vaba Yesu, muingi banwa.
2 And the Pharisees and the scholars murmured, saying, This man receives sinners and eats with them.
Bafalisi ayi minlongi mi mina baniunguta ayi batuba: —Mutu wawu wunyakula bankua masumu ayi wundia yawu va kimosi!
3 And he spoke this parable to them, saying,
Buna Yesu wuba kamba nongo yayi:
4 What man of you, having a hundred sheep, and having lost one of them, does not leave behind the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go for that which was lost until he finds it?
—Nani mutu mu beno buna luidi vuidi khama yimosi yi mameme vayi zimbukila zimbisidi dimeme dimosi, wunkambu sia yekula luvua ayi vua lu mameme mankaka muingi kenda tombi diodi dizimbala, nate kela dimona e?
5 And when he finds it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
Bu kadi bakudi, buna mu khini kela kuditudila va mavangiti mandi.
6 And when he comes to the house, he calls together his men friends and his men neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me, because I have found my sheep that was lost.
Niandi tula ku nzoꞌandi, buna wela tumisa bakundi bandi ayi bobo bafikimini yandi ayi wuba bakamba: “bila lumona yama khini va kimosi bila ndimueni dimeme diama dizimbala.”
7 I say to you, that thus there will be joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, than over ninety-nine righteous men who have no need of repentance.
Ndikulukamba ti khini yela ba mu Diyilu mu diambu di nkua masumuwumosi bu kabaludi mavanga mandi yela viokakana ayi yoyi yidi mu tala luvua ayi vua lu basonga bakambulu kuawu mfunu wu balula mavanga mawu.
8 Or what woman having ten drachmas, if she lose one drachma, does not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and seek diligently until she finds it?
—Voti nketo mbi wowo vuidi dikumi di zimbongo zi bisengo vayi zimbisidi sengo kimosi, wunkambu lemisanga muinda ayi wunkambu kombulanga nzo ayi wunkambu tombanga bumboti sengo kiandi nate kammonakiawu e?
9 And when she has found it, she calls together her lady friends and lady neighbors, saying, Rejoice with me, because I found the drachma that I lost.
Bu kamueni kiawu, buna wela kutikisa bakundi bandi ayi bobo bafikimini yandi ayi wela bakamba: “bika lumona yama khini va kimosibila ndimueni sengo kiama ki zimbongo kioki kizimbala.”
10 Thus I say to you, there becomes joy in the presence of the agents of God over one sinner who repents.
Bobuawu ndikulukamba ti khini yiwombo yidi kuidi zimbasi zi Nzambi nkua masumu wumosi bu kabaludi mavanga mandi.
11 And he said, A certain man had two sons,
Buna wubuela tuba diaka: —Vaba mutu wumosi wuba ayi bana buadi bababakala.
12 and the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falls to me. And he divided to them his living.
Nleki wunkamba dise diandi: “a tata, bika wuphana ndambu ki kiuka kiama!” Buna dise diba kabudila kiuka kiandi.
13 And not many days after, the younger son, having gathered all together, journeyed into a distant country, and there he squandered his wealth living recklessly.
Ndambu yi bilumbu bu bivioka, nleki wutota bima biandi ayi wuyenda mu tsi yi thama. Kuna kamana fukisila bima biandi bioso mu luzingu lu divunzi.
14 And when he spent all, a mighty famine developed in that country, and he began to be in want.
Bu kamana fukisa bibio, buna kanda kingolo ki nzala ki yiza bua mu tsi beni ayi wutona mona nzala.
15 And having gone, he was joined to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
Buna wuyenda sonama mu kisalu kuidi pfumu yimosi yi tsiyina. Buna pfumu beni wumfidisa ku zitsola ziandi mu diambu kenda sunganga zingulu.
16 And he longed to fill his belly from the husks that the swine ate, and no man gave to him.
Buna wuzola kuandi wesa dikutu diandi mu dianga bidia bi zingulu vayi kadi mutu kasia kumvana biawu ko.
17 But when he came to himself, he said, How many hired men of my father's have abundance of loaves, but I am perishing with hunger.
Buna wutona yindula mu tsi andi ntima: “bisadi bioso bi dise diama bindianga boso buididi luzolo luawu vayi minu kuaku ndilembu fua nzala!
18 After rising, I will go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and in thy sight.
Ndieka telama, ndieka kuenda kuidi dise diama ayi ndielakunkamba: Tatꞌama, ndivodidi masumu kuidi Nzambi ayi kuidi ngeyo.
19 I am no more worthy to be called thy son. Make me as one of thy hired men.
Ndisi fuana diaka ko bathedila muanꞌaku vayi bika wuthangila banga kisadi kiaku.”
20 And having risen, he went to his father. But while he was still distant, afar off, his father saw him and felt compassion. And having ran, he fell on his neck, and kissed him much.
Buna wutelama ayi wuyenda kuidi siandi. Buna wukidi thamasiandi wummona ayi kiadi kingolo kimbuila. Buna wuyenda dengana nsualumuanꞌandi, wumbumbakana ayi wumfifa bibesi.
21 And the son said to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and in thy sight. I am no more worthy to be called thy son.
Buna muana wunkamba: “Tata ndivodidi masumu kuidi diyilu ayi kuidi ngeyo, ndisi fuanadiaka ko bathedila muanꞌaku.”
22 But the father said to his bondmen, Bring forth the best robe and clothe him, and give a ring for his hand, and shoes for his feet.
Vayi dise dikamba bisadi biandi: “Lusia nsualu, lutuala kikhutu kilutidi kitoko ayi lumvuatisakiawu; lumvuatisa pheti mu nlembo ayi lumvuatisa zisapatu.
23 And having brought the fatted calf, kill it, and having eaten, we will be cheerful,
Bika lutuala muana wungombi wu mafuta ayi luvonda wawu. Tudianu ayi tuvangisa nyengo;
24 because this my son was dead, and became alive again. And he was lost, and is found. And they began to be cheerful.
bila muanꞌama wawu wubedi wufua vayi wufulukidi; wubedi wuzimbala ayiwumonikini.” Buna batona nyengo mu khini.
25 But his elder son was in a field. And while coming, having approached the house, he heard music and dancing.
Mu thangu yina, muanꞌandi wu nkulutu wuba sala ku tsola. Bu kaba vutuka ayi bu kafikama ayi nzo wuwa miziki ayi makinu.
26 And having summoned one of the boys, he inquired what these things might be.
Buna wutumisa kisadi kimosi ayi wunyuvula keni mambu mbi malembu vioki kuna.
27 And he said to him, Thy brother arrived, and thy father has killed the fatted calf, because he received him back healthy.
Kisadi beni kimvutudila: “Keti khimbꞌaku niandi vutukidi. Dise diaku divondisidi muana ngombi wu mafuta bila wummueni wumvimba ayi wukambu kimbevo.”
28 But he was angry, and would not go in. Therefore, his father having come out, he called him.
Buna nkulutu wufuema ayi wumanga kota. Siandi wutotuka ayi wunleba.
29 But having answered, he said to his father, Lo, so many years do I serve thee, and I never passed by a commandment of thine, and yet thou never gave me a goat that I might be merry with my friends.
Vayi niandi wumvutudila: “Tala, mimvu miwombo ndimeni kusadila vayi kadi khumbu yimosi ndisia tinguna ko zithumunu ziaku, ayi kadi khumbu yimosi wusia kuphana ko muana khombo muingi ndimona khini va kimosi ayi bakundi bama.
30 But when this thy son came, who has devoured thy living with harlots, thou killed for him the fatted calf.
Vayi muanꞌaku, mutu wowo wumana sikisa kiuka kiaku va kimosi ayi bandumba zi leta bu kizidi, buna vondisidi muana ngombi wu mafuta mu diambu diandi.”
31 And he said to him, Child, thou are always with me, and all my things are yours.
Siandi wumvutudila: “A muanꞌama, ngeyo zithangu zioso widi yama va kimosi mu ayi bima biosobiobi phuidi ngeyo vuidi biawu.
32 But it was needful to make merry and be glad, because this thy brother was dead, and became alive again, and was lost, and was found.
Vayi mboti mu vangisa nyengo ayi mona khini bila khombꞌaku yayiwubedi wufua ayi wufulukidi, wubedi wuzimbala ayi monikini.”
