< Luke 8 >

1 And it happened afterwards that he was making a journey through the cities and towns, preaching and evangelizing the kingdom of God. And the twelve were with him,
Pagamasile gelego, Che Yesu ŵapite mu misi ni misinda achilalichilaga Ngani Jambone ja Umwenye wa Akunnungu. Ni ŵakulijiganya kumi na mbili ŵala ŵalongene nawo.
2 along with certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary, who is called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had departed,
Nipele achakongwe ŵane ŵaŵaakopwesye masoka ni kwalamya ilwele ŵalongene nawo. Ŵelewo ni ŵanya che Maliamu jwa musi wa ku Magidala jwati Che Yesu ŵankopwesye masoka saba,
3 and Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod’s steward, and Susanna, and many other women, who were ministering to him from their resources.
ni che Joana ŵankwawo che Kusa, che Kusa ŵaliji jwakulindilila nyuumba ji che Helode ni che Susana ni ŵane ŵajinji. Ŵele achakongwe wo ŵaliji nkwakamusya Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao kwa ipanje yao achinsyene.
4 Then, when a very numerous crowd was gathering together and hurrying from the cities to him, he spoke using a comparison:
Mpingo wa ŵandu ŵaliji uninkusongangana ni ŵandu kukopochela misi jina jose ŵaliji nkwaichilila Che Yesu. Nombewo ŵatanjile achi chitagu chi.
5 “The sower went out to sow his seed. And as he sowed, some fell beside the way; and it was trampled and the birds of the air devoured it.
“Mundu jwakulima ŵajawile kukumisa mbeju syakwe. Paŵamisaga sine syapatuchile mwitala ni uŵajesile mwitala mo ŵasiliŵete ni ijuni yalile.
6 And some fell upon rock; and having sprung up, it withered away, because it had no moisture.
Mbeju sine syapatuchile palitaka lyalili ni maganga ni pasyamesile syanyasile ligongo litaka nganilikola meesi.
7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns, rising up with it, suffocated it.
Sine syapatuchile pasikati miiŵa. Jele miiŵa jo jamesile pamo nasyo ni kusiŵijikanya.
8 And some fell upon good soil; and having sprung up, it produced fruit one hundredfold.” As he said these things, he cried out, “Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.”
Mbeju sine syapatuchile palitaka lyambone ni syamesile ni kusogola ni jili jose jasogwele pwela.” Che Yesu paŵamalisisye gelego, ŵanyanyisye, “Ŵaali ni mapikanilo, gakupilikana apilikane!”
9 Then his disciples questioned him as to what this parable might mean.
Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵausisye Che Yesu malumbo ga chele chitagu cho.
10 And he said to them: “To you it has been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God. But to the rest, it is in parables, so that: seeing, they may not perceive, and hearing, they may not understand.
Nombe ŵajanjile, “Ŵanyamwe mpegwile kumanyilila yantemela ya umwenye wa Akunnungu, nambo kwa ŵanewo ngwamba, ŵelewo akusalilwa kwa itagu kuti pakulola anakombole kulola ni pakupilikana anaimanyilile.
11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
“Nipele, malumbo ga chitagu chi ni aga, Mbeju lili liloŵe lya Akunnungu.
12 And those beside the way are those who hear it, but then the devil comes and takes the word from their heart, lest by believing it they may be saved.
Chachikukopochela kwa mbeju sisyapatuchile mwitala sila chikulandana ni chitagu cha ŵandu ŵakulipilikana liloŵe lya Akunnungu ni Shetani akwika ni kulityosya mu mitima jao kuti akakulupilila ni kukulupuswa.
13 Now those upon rock are those who, when they hear it, accept the word with joy, but these have no roots. So they believe for a time, but in a time of testing, they fall away.
Nombe chachikukopochela kwa mbeju sisyapatuchile palwala sila, chikulandana ni chitagu cha ŵandu ŵakupilikana liloŵe lya Akunnungu akulipochela kwa sangalala. Nambo mpela asila mbeju sila, ŵele ŵanduwo ngakukola michiga pakuŵa akukulupilila katema kanandi ni pakulinjikwa akulekanga kulupilila.
14 And those which fell among thorns are those who have heard it, but as they go along, they are suffocated by the concerns and riches and pleasures of this life, and so they do not yield fruit.
Sooni chachikukopochela kwa mbeju sisyapatuchile pa miiŵa sila chikulandana ni chitagu cha ŵandu ŵakupilikana liloŵe lya Akunnungu, nambo mbolembole akuŵijikanywa ni lipamba ni ipanje ni upoche wa pachilambo. Ŵele ŵandu wo isogosi yao ngaikukomala.
15 But those which were on good soil are those who, upon hearing the word with a good and noble heart, retain it, and they bring forth fruit in patience.
Ni chachikukopochela kwa mbeju sisyapatuchile pa chaajila sila chikulandana ni chitagu cha ŵandu ŵakupilikana liloŵe lya Akunnungu ni kulikamulisya kwa ntima wambone ni wakukunda. Ŵandu wo akupililila ni kumbesi kusogola isogosi yambone.
16 Now no one, lighting a candle, covers it with a container, or sets it under a bed. Instead, he places it on a lampstand, so that those who enter may see the light.
“Ŵandu ngakupamba lumuli ni kuluunichila ni lulo pane kuluŵika kuusi chindanda. Nambo akuluŵika pachanya chindu chakuŵichila lumuli kuti ŵakwinjila mwelemo akombole kulola lulanga lwakwe.
17 For there is nothing secret, which will not be made clear, nor is there anything hidden, which will not be known and be brought into plain sight.
“Chachilichose chachisisikwe, chichiŵichikwe pakulanguka ni chachilichose cheunichile chichiŵe cheunukulikwe ni kuŵichikwa pakulanguka.
18 Therefore, take care how you listen. For whoever has, it will be given to him; and whoever does not have, even what he thinks he has will be taken away from him.”
“Nipele nlilolechesye ni upilikane wenu, pakuŵa jwakwete chindu chajonjechekwe nambo jwanganakola chindu, chasumulwe atamuno kanandi chakuchiganisya kuti akwete.”
19 Then his mother and brothers came to him; but they were not able to go to him because of the crowd.
Pelepo achikulugwe ni achapwakwe Che Yesu ŵajawile kukwalola, nambo nganakombola kwaŵandichila ligongo lya winji wa ŵandu.
20 And it was reported to him, “Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.”
Mundu jumo ŵansalile Che Yesu kuti, “Achikulu ŵenu ni achapwenu alinji paasa, akusaka kunnola.”
21 And in response, he said to them, “My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and do it.”
Nambo Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵandu wose, “Achikulu ŵangu ni achapwanga ali ŵeŵala ŵakupilikana liloŵe lya Akunnungu ni kulikamula.”
22 Now it happened, on a certain day, that he climbed into a little boat with his disciples. And he said to them, “Let us make a crossing over the lake.” And they embarked.
Sooni lyuŵa limo Che Yesu ŵajinjile mu ngalaŵa ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao, ŵaasalile, “Tujaule peesi litanda.” Nipele, ŵatandite ulendo.
23 And as they were sailing, he slept. And a windstorm descended over the lake. And they were taking on water and were in danger.
Paŵaliji mu ngalaŵa Che Yesu ŵaliji ni lugono ni ŵagonile. Nipele jatandite kupuga mbungo jekulungwa ni gatandite kwinjila meesi mu ngalaŵa ni ŵaliji mu chakogoya.
24 Then, drawing near, they awakened him, saying, “Teacher, we are perishing.” But as he rose up, he rebuked the wind and the raging water, and they ceased. And a tranquility occurred.
Ŵakulijiganya ŵala ŵajaulile Che Yesu kukwajimusya achitiji, “Ambuje, Ambuje! Tulinkwasika!” Che Yesu ŵajimwiche ni kujikalipila mbungo jekulungwa ni matumbela ga meesi, yose yamyalele ni kwaliji kutulele.
25 Then he said to them, “Where is your faith?” And they, being afraid, were amazed, saying to one another, “Who do you think this is, so that he commands both wind and sea, and they obey him?”
Ni sooni ŵaasalile, “Chikulupi chenu chili kwapi?” Nambo ŵanyawo ŵasimosile ni kamulwa ni lipamba ni kusalilana jwine ni jwine, “Mundu ju ali jwanti uli? Pakuŵa akujilamula namuno mbungo jekulungwa ni matumbela ga meesi ni yose ikwapilikanila.”
26 And they sailed to the region of the Gerasenes, which is opposite Galilee.
Che Yesu pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵajendelechele ni ulendo ni ŵaiche ku mbwani ja chilambo cha Ŵagelasi chachili peesi litanda lyaliŵandikene ni ku Galilaya.
27 And when he had gone out to the land, a certain man met him, who had now had a demon for a long time. And he did not wear clothes, nor did he stay in a house, but among the sepulchers.
Che Yesu paŵatulwiche mu ngalaŵa ni kuliŵata mbwani, mundu jumo jwa musi ula juŵaliji ni masoka ŵannyichilile. Nambo mundu jo kwa moŵa gamajinji nganatakulaga namose nganatamaga mu nyuumba nambo ŵatamaga mu mbugu sya kusichila ŵandu.
28 And when he saw Jesus, he fell down before him. And crying out in a loud voice, he said: “What is there between me and you, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you not to torture me.”
Paŵammweni Che Yesu ŵalisile, ŵaligwisisye paasi paujo pao ni kunyanyisya, “Mmwejo, Che Yesu Mwana jwa Akunnungu Ŵakulu, nkusaka ichichi kwangune? Ngunchondelela ngasimulagasya!”
29 For he was ordering the unclean spirit to depart from the man. For on many occasions, it would seize him, and he was bound with chains and held by fetters. But breaking the chains, he was driven by the demon into deserted places.
Ŵaŵechete yeleyo pakuŵa Che Yesu ŵalikalipile lisoka linkopoche mundu jo. Lyele lisoka lyo lyaliji nkunkamula mundu jo kaŵilikaŵili, natamuno ŵandu ŵambisile nkati ni kwataŵilisya makono ni makongolo ni unyolo ni magwedegwede, nambo ŵakutulaga nyolo syo ni magwedegwede ni lisoka lyo lyanjausyaga mwipululu.
30 Then Jesus questioned him, saying, “What is your name?” And he said, “Legion,” because many demons had entered into him.
Che Yesu ŵammusisye, “Liina lyenu ŵaani?” Ŵajanjile, “Liina lyangu lili ‘Mpingo.’” Ŵajanjile yeleyo pakuŵa ŵaliji ni masoka gamajinji.
31 And they petitioned him not to order them to go into the abyss. (Abyssos g12)
Gele masoka go gaachondelele kuti ngasiŵajausya mu lisimbo lyangali mbesi. (Abyssos g12)
32 And in that place, there was a herd of many swine, pasturing on the mountain. And they petitioned him to permit them to enter into them. And he permitted them.
Pele paliji ni mpingo wekulungwa wa maguluŵe galiji ganinkulya mungulugulu chitumbi. Masoka gala gaachondelele Che Yesu gajaule gakagajinjile maguluŵe. Nombe Che Yesu ŵagalesile gajaule.
33 Therefore, the demons departed from the man, and they entered into the swine. And the herd rushed violently down a precipice into the lake, and they were drowned.
Masoka gankopweche mundu jo ni gajinjile mu maguluŵe ni mpingo wose wa maguluŵe waselelechele mu litanda lyalili chiŵandi ni chitumbi ni kutiŵila mu meesi.
34 And when those who were pasturing them had seen this, they fled and reported it in the city and the villages.
Ŵakuchinga ŵala paŵaiweni yose yaitendekwe yo ŵautwiche, ŵajawile kukwasalila ŵandu ngani syo mu migunda ni misi.
35 Then they went out to see what was happening, and they came to Jesus. And they found the man, from whom the demons had departed, sitting at his feet, clothed as well as in a sane mind, and they were afraid.
Ŵandu ŵaiche kukulola iyakopochele. Ni ŵajaulile Che Yesu, ŵansimene mundu jugantyosile masoka jo ali atemi chiŵandi ni makongolo ga Che Yesu, ali awasile nguo ni ali ni lunda lwambone, nombewo ŵajogwepenje.
36 Then those who had seen this also reported to them how he had been healed from the legion.
Ŵandu uŵalolite jele ngani jininkukopochela ŵaasalile ŵanyawo iŵatite pakulamwa mundu jwakamwilwe ni masoka jo.
37 And the entire multitude from the region of the Gerasenes pleaded with him to depart from them. For they were seized by a great fear. Then, climbing into the boat, he went back again.
Ni ŵandu wose ŵa chilambo cha ku Gelasi chila ŵakamwilwe ni lipamba lyekulungwa. Nipele ŵaachondelele Che Yesu atyoche, nombe Che Yesu ŵakwesile sooni mu ngalaŵa ni kwaula.
38 And the man from whom the demons had departed pleaded with him, so that he might be with him. But Jesus sent him away, saying,
Mundu jugankopweche masoka jula ŵaachondelele Che Yesu kuti alongane nawo. Nambo Che Yesu ŵanlanjile, ni ŵansalile,
39 “Return to your house and explain to them what great things God has done for you.” And he traveled through the entire city, preaching about the great things that Jesus had done for him.
“Mmuje kumusi nkasale yose yatesile Akunnungu kukwenu.” Nipele, mundu jula ŵajawile ni kwenesya mu musi wose indu yose iŵapanganyichiswe ni Che Yesu.
40 Now it happened that, when Jesus had returned, the crowd received him. For they were all waiting for him.
Che Yesu paŵajombweche litanda ni kwaula kwine, mpingo wa ŵandu ŵapochele, pakuŵa wose ŵaliji nkwalindilila.
41 And behold, a man came, whose name was Jairus, and he was a leader of the synagogue. And he fell down at the feet of Jesus, asking him to enter into his house.
Pelepo ŵaiche mundu jumo liina lyakwe che Yailo, juŵaliji chilongola jwa nyuumba ja kupopelela, ŵatindiŵele pa makongolo ga Che Yesu ni ŵaachondelele kuti ajaule kumangwao,
42 For he had an only daughter, nearly twelve years old, and she was dying. And it happened that, as he was going there, he was hemmed in by the crowd.
pakuŵa mwali jwao jwajika pe jwa yaka mpela kumi na mbili ŵaliji nkulwala chiŵandika kuwa. Che Yesu paŵaliji nkwaula, ŵandu ŵaliji nkwaŵijikanya kosekose.
43 And there was a certain woman, with a flow of blood for twelve years, who had paid out all her substance on physicians, and she was unable to be cured by any of them.
Nipele paliji ni jwankongwe jumo mumpingo wa ŵandu mula, juŵalwalaga magono kwa yaka kumi na mbili, juŵamasile chipanje chakwe chose kwa ŵamitela ni ngapagwa juŵankombwele kunnamya.
44 She approached him from behind, and she touched the hem of his garment. And at once the flow of her blood stopped.
Jwankongwe jo ŵannyichilile Che Yesu kunyuma ni ŵakwaiye lujenje lwa mwinjilo wao. Papopo ŵalamile magono.
45 And Jesus said, “Who is it that touched me?” But as everyone was denying it, Peter, and those who were with him, said: “Teacher, the crowd hems you in and presses upon you, and yet you say, ‘Who touched me?’”
Che Yesu ŵausisye achitiji, “Ana ŵaani ŵangwaiye?” Wose ŵatite ngapagwa mundu jwankwaiye. Nombe che Petulo ŵatite, “Ambuje, mpingo wa ŵandu unsyungwile ni kummijikanya!”
46 And Jesus said: “Someone has touched me. For I know that power has gone out from me.”
Nambo Che Yesu ŵatite, “Apali mundu jwangwaiye, nguimanyilila pakuŵa machili gangopweche.”
47 Then the woman, upon seeing that she was not hidden, came forward, trembling, and she fell down before his feet. And she declared before all the people the reason that she had touched him, and how she had been immediately healed.
Jwankongwe jula paŵaiweni kuti ngakukombola kulisisa, ŵalikopwesye achitetemelaga kwa lipamba ni ŵatindiŵele paujo pa Che Yesu. Pelepo ni ŵasasile mmbujo mwa wose ligongo lya kwakwaya Che Yesu ni iŵatite pakulamwa kwanakamo.
48 But he said to her: “Daughter, your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”
Che Yesu ŵansalile jwankongwe jula kuti, “Mwanangu, chikulupi chenu chinnamisye. Njaule kwa chitendewele.”
49 While he was still speaking, someone came to the ruler of the synagogue, saying to him: “Your daughter is dead. Do not trouble him.”
Che Yesu akanaŵe kumalisya kuŵecheta jwaiche mundu jumo kutyochela ku nyuumba ja chilongola jula kukwasalila che Yailo kuti, “Mwanagwenu awile, nkapunda kunsausya jwakwiganya.”
50 Then Jesus, upon hearing this word, replied to the father of the girl: “Do not be afraid. Only believe, and she will be saved.”
Nambo Che Yesu paŵapilikene yeleyo ŵaasalile che Yailo, “Kasinjogopa, ngambe kukulupilila, nombewo chalame.”
51 And when he had arrived at the house, he would not permit anyone to enter with him, except Peter and James and John, and the father and mother of the girl.
Paŵaiche pa nyuumba po nganansalila mundu jwine kuti ajinjile pamo nawo, ikaŵe che Petulo ni che Yohana ni che Yakobo ni achikulugwe ni atatigwe mwali jo.
52 Now all were weeping and mourning for her. But he said: “Do not weep. The girl is not dead, but only sleeping.”
Ŵandu wose ŵaliji nkulila ni kwalilila malilo. Nambo Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵanyawo, “Mmyalale, pakuŵa nganawa nambo agambile gona pe!”
53 And they derided him, knowing that she had died.
Ni ŵanyawo ŵansechile pakuŵa ŵaimanyililaga kuti awile.
54 But he, taking her by the hand, cried out, saying, “Little girl, arise.”
Nambo Che Yesu ŵankamwile nkono mwali jula ni kummilanga “Mwanangu njimuche!”
55 And her spirit returned, and she immediately rose up. And he ordered them to give her something to eat.
Umi wao waujilile ni papopo ŵajimi. Ni Che Yesu ŵaasalile kuti ŵape chakulya.
56 And her parents were stupefied. And he instructed them not to tell anyone what had happened.
Achaŵelesi ŵao ŵasimosile nnope nambo Che Yesu ŵaakanyisye kuti akansalila mundu jwalijose yaitendekweyo.
