< Luke 4 >

1 Then Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,
Nake Jesũ akiuma kũu Jorodani aiyũrĩtwo nĩ Roho Mũtheru, agĩtwarwo nĩ Roho werũ-inĩ,
2 where for forty days He was tempted by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and when they had ended, He was hungry.
kũrĩa aagereirio nĩ mũcukani matukũ mĩrongo ĩna. Ndaarĩĩaga kĩndũ matukũ-inĩ macio, namo maathira agĩkorwo arĩ mũhũũtu.
3 The devil said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread.”
Nake mũcukani akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo wee nĩwe Mũrũ wa Ngai, ĩra ihiga rĩrĩ rĩtuĩke mũgate.”
4 But Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone.’”
Nake Jesũ akĩmĩcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: ‘To mũgate wiki ũngĩtũũria mũndũ muoyo.’”
5 Then the devil led Him up to a high place and showed Him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world.
Ningĩ mũcukani akĩmũtwara handũ hatũũgĩru mũno, na gwa kahinda kanini mũno akĩmuonia mothamaki mothe ma gũkũ thĩ.
6 “I will give You authority over all these kingdoms and all their glory,” he said. “For it has been relinquished to me, and I can give it to anyone I wish.
Agĩcooka akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩngũkũhe wathani wa kũu guothe na riiri wakuo wothe, nĩgũkorwo nĩiheanĩtwo kũrĩ niĩ, na no ndĩciheane kũrĩ mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa ingĩenda kũhe.
7 So if You worship me, it will all be Yours.”
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ũngĩnyinamĩrĩra ũhooe, mothe megũtuĩka maku.”
8 But Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve Him only.’”
Jesũ akĩmũcookeria, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: ‘Hooyaga Mwathani Ngai waku na ũmũtungatagĩre o we wiki.’”
9 Then the devil led Him to Jerusalem and set Him on the pinnacle of the temple. “If You are the Son of God,” he said, “throw Yourself down from here.
Nake mũcukani akĩmũtwara Jerusalemu, na akĩmũrũgamia gathũrũmũndũ-inĩ ka hekarũ, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo wee nĩwe Mũrũ wa Ngai, wĩgũithie thĩ kuuma haha.
10 For it is written: ‘He will command His angels concerning You to guard You carefully;
Nĩgũkorwo nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “‘Nĩagaatha araika ake nĩ ũndũ waku makũmenyerere wega;
11 and they will lift You up in their hands, so that You will not strike Your foot against a stone.’”
ningĩ nĩmagakwanĩrĩria na moko mao, nĩgeetha ndũkaringwo kũgũrũ nĩ ihiga.’”
12 But Jesus answered, “It also says, ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’”
Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Maandĩko moigĩte atĩrĩ: ‘Ndũkanagerie Mwathani Ngai waku.’”
13 When the devil had finished every temptation, he left Him until an opportune time.
Rĩrĩa mũcukani aarĩkirie kũmũgeria na njĩra ciothe-rĩ, akĩmũtiga nginya ihinda rĩrĩa rĩagĩrĩire rĩkoneka.
14 Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and the news about Him spread throughout the surrounding region.
Nake Jesũ agĩcooka Galili arĩ na hinya wa Roho, nayo ngumo yake ĩkĩhunja kũu bũrũri ũcio wothe.
15 He taught in their synagogues and was glorified by everyone.
Nake nĩarutanaga thunagogi-inĩ ciao, nao andũ othe makĩmũkumia.
16 Then Jesus came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up. As was His custom, He entered the synagogue on the Sabbath. And when He stood up to read,
Na rĩrĩ, nĩathiire Nazarethi, kũrĩa aarereirwo, na agĩtoonya thunagogi mũthenya wa Thabatũ, o ta ũrĩa aamenyerete gwĩka. Nake akĩrũgama na igũrũ athome Maandĩko.
17 the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to Him. Unrolling it, He found the place where it was written:
Akĩnengerwo ibuku rĩa gĩkũnjo rĩa mũnabii Isaia. Akĩrĩkũnjũra, akĩona harĩa handĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ:
18 “The Spirit of the Lord is on Me, because He has anointed Me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent Me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to release the oppressed,
“Roho wa Mwathani arĩ igũrũ rĩakwa, nĩ ũndũ nĩanjitĩrĩirie maguta nĩguo hunjagĩrie arĩa athĩĩni Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega. Nĩandũmĩte thiĩ nyanĩrĩre kuohorwo kwa arĩa moheetwo, na atĩ arĩa atumumu nĩmegũcooka kuona, na njohorithie arĩa mahinyĩrĩirio,
19 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”
ningĩ nyanĩrĩre mwaka wa gwĩtĩkĩrĩka wa Mwathani.”
20 Then He rolled up the scroll, returned it to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fixed on Him,
Agĩcooka agĩkũnja ibuku rĩu rĩa gĩkũnjo, agĩcookeria mũmenyereri wa thunagogi, agĩikara thĩ. Nao andũ arĩa othe maarĩ thunagogi makĩmũrora.
21 and He began by saying, “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”
Nake akĩambĩrĩria kwaria, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ũmũthĩ maandĩko maya nĩ mahingio mũkĩĩiguagĩra.”
22 All spoke well of Him and marveled at the gracious words that came from His lips. “Isn’t this the son of Joseph?” they asked.
Nao andũ othe makĩmũgaatha na makĩgegio mũno nĩ ciugo njega iria cioimaga kanua gake. Makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Githĩ ũyũ ti mũrũ wa Jusufu?”
23 Jesus said to them, “Surely you will quote this proverb to Me: ‘Physician, heal yourself! Do here in Your hometown what we have heard that You did in Capernaum.’”
Nake Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ nĩ mũkũnjĩĩra thimo ĩrĩa yugaga atĩrĩ, ‘Ndagĩtarĩ, wĩĩhonie wee mwene! Maũndũ marĩa tũiguĩte atĩ nĩ wekire kũu Kaperinaumu meeke gũkũ itũũra-inĩ rĩaku.’”
24 Then He added, “Truly I tell you, no prophet is accepted in his hometown.
Agĩthiĩ na mbere kuuga atĩrĩ, “Ngũmwĩra na ma, gũtirĩ mũnabii wĩtĩkagĩrwo itũũra-inĩ rĩake.
25 But I tell you truthfully that there were many widows in Israel in the time of Elijah, when the sky was shut for three and a half years and great famine swept over all the land.
Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, nĩ kwarĩ atumia aingĩ a ndigwa Isiraeli matukũ-inĩ ma Elija, rĩrĩa igũrũ rĩarĩ ihinge mĩaka ĩtatũ na nuthu, na ngʼaragu nene ĩkĩiyũra bũrũri wothe.
26 Yet Elijah was not sent to any of them, but to the widow of Zarephath in Sidon.
No Elija ndaigana gũtũmwo kũrĩ o na ũmwe wao, tiga kũrĩ mũtumia wa ndigwa ũrĩa watũire itũũra rĩa Zarefathu kũu bũrũri wa Sidoni.
27 And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet. Yet not one of them was cleansed—only Naaman the Syrian.”
Ningĩ nĩ kwarĩ andũ aingĩ maarĩ na mangũ thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli ihinda rĩa Elisha ũrĩa mũnabii, no gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe wao wahonirio tiga Naamani ũrĩa Mũsuriata.”
28 On hearing this, all the people in the synagogue were enraged.
Andũ othe arĩa maarĩ thĩinĩ wa thunagogi nĩmarakarire mũno rĩrĩa maiguire ũguo.
29 They got up, drove Him out of the town, and led Him to the brow of the hill on which the town was built, in order to throw Him over the cliff.
Magĩũkĩra makĩmũrutũrũra kuuma itũũra-inĩ rĩu, makĩmũtwara rwere-inĩ rwa karĩma harĩa itũũra rĩu rĩakĩtwo, nĩguo mamũikie na kũu kĩharũrũka-inĩ.
30 But Jesus passed through the crowd and went on His way.
Nowe Jesũ akĩgerera gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ, agĩĩthiĩra.
31 Then He went down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee, and on the Sabbath He began to teach the people.
Agĩcooka agĩikũrũka, agĩthiĩ Kaperinaumu, itũũra rĩarĩ Galili, na mũthenya wa Thabatũ akĩambĩrĩria kũruta andũ.
32 They were astonished at His teaching, because His message had authority.
Nao andũ makĩgega nĩ ũndũ wa ũrutani wake, tondũ ndũmĩrĩri yake yarĩ ya wathani.
33 In the synagogue there was a man possessed by the spirit of an unclean demon. He cried out in a loud voice,
Na rĩrĩ, kũu thĩinĩ wa thunagogi nĩ kwarĩ na mũndũ warĩ na ndaimono, nĩyo ngoma thũku. Nake akĩanĩrĩra na mũgambo mũnene, akiuga atĩrĩ,
34 “Ha! What do You want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are—the Holy One of God!”
“Hĩ! Ũrenda atĩa na ithuĩ, wee Jesũ wa Nazarethi? Ũũkĩte gũtũniina? Nĩngũũĩ, we nĩwe ũrĩa Mũtheru wa Ngai!”
35 But Jesus rebuked the demon. “Be silent!” He said. “Come out of him!” At this, the demon threw the man down before them all and came out without harming him.
Nake Jesũ akĩmĩkũma, akĩmĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Kira, na uume thĩinĩ wake!” Nayo ndaimono ĩyo ĩkĩgũithia mũndũ ũcio thĩ hau mbere yao othe, ĩkiuma na ndĩamũtihirie.
36 All the people were overcome with amazement and asked one another, “What is this message? With authority and power He commands the unclean spirits, and they come out!”
Nao andũ othe makĩgega makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ ũrutani ũyũ ũhaana atĩa? Araatha ngoma thũku arĩ na wathani na hinya, nacio ikoima!”
37 And the news about Jesus spread throughout the surrounding region.
Nayo ngumo yake ĩkĩhunja kũrĩa guothe kwariganĩtie na kũu.
38 After Jesus had left the synagogue, He went to the home of Simon, whose mother-in-law was suffering from a high fever. So they appealed to Jesus on her behalf,
Nake Jesũ akiuma thunagogi, agĩthiĩ mũciĩ gwa Simoni. Na rĩrĩ, nyina wa mũtumia wa Simoni aarĩ mũrũaru mũrimũ wa kũhiũha mwĩrĩ mũno, nao magĩthaitha Jesũ nĩ ũndũ wake.
39 and He stood over her and rebuked the fever, and it left her. And she got up at once and began to serve them.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, akĩinamĩrĩra harĩ we, na agĩatha mũrimũ ũcio uume mwĩrĩ wake, naguo ũkiuma. Nake mũtumia ũcio agĩũkĩra o rĩmwe na akĩambĩrĩria kũmatungatĩra.
40 At sunset, all who were ill with various diseases were brought to Jesus, and laying His hands on each one, He healed them.
Na rĩrĩa riũa rĩathũaga, andũ makĩrehera Jesũ andũ arĩa othe maarĩ na mĩrimũ ngũrani, nake akĩmaigĩrĩra moko o mũndũ o mũndũ, akĩmahonia.
41 Demons also came out of many people, shouting, “You are the Son of God!” But He rebuked the demons and would not allow them to speak, because they knew He was the Christ.
O na ningĩ ndaimono ikiuma andũ aingĩ, ikĩanagĩrĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩwe Mũrũ wa Ngai!” Nowe agĩcikaania na agĩcigiria ciarie, tondũ nĩcioĩ atĩ nĩwe Kristũ.
42 At daybreak, Jesus went out to a solitary place, and the crowds were looking for Him. They came to Him and tried to keep Him from leaving.
Na gwakĩa-rĩ, Jesũ akiumagara agĩthiĩ kũndũ gũtaarĩ andũ. Nao andũ makĩmũcaria, na rĩrĩa maakinyire harĩa aarĩ, makĩgeria kũmũgirĩrĩria ndakoime kũu amatige.
43 But Jesus told them, “I must preach the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns as well, because that is why I was sent.”
Nowe akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “No nginya hunjie Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa ũthamaki wa Ngai matũũra-inĩ marĩa mangĩ o namo, nĩ ũndũ nĩkĩo ndaatũmirwo.”
44 And He continued to preach in the synagogues of Judea.
Nake agĩthiĩ na mbere na kũhunjia thĩinĩ wa thunagogi cia Judea.
