Luke 9
1 Then calling together the twelve Apostles, he gave them power and authority over all demons and to cure diseases.
Yesu wukutikisa kumi mimvuala miodi ayi wuba vana lulendo ayi luyalu lu totudila ziphevi zioso zimbimbi ayi lubelusila bambevo.
2 And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God and to heal the infirm.
Bosi wuba tuma benda yamikisa luyalu lu Nzambi ayi wuba tuma babelusa bambevo.
3 And he said to them: “You should take nothing for the journey, neither staff, nor traveling bag, nor bread, nor money; and you should not have two tunics.
Wuba vana zithumunu ziazi: —Kadi nata kadi kiasa mu nzila: kadi nata nkawa, kadi tsaku, kadi khuta, kadi zimbongo. Kadi mutu kanata kikhutu kiviakisa.
4 And into whatever house you shall enter, lodge there, and do not move away from there.
Yoso nzo luela kota buna luvuanda muna nate luela botuka va divula beni.
5 And whoever will not have received you, upon departing from that city, shake off even the dust on your feet, as a testimony against them.”
Enati bamengi kulutambula buna mu thangu luela totuka mu divula beni, buna luba kukumuna mbungi-mbungi yi malu meno muingi kiba kimbangi kuidi bawu.
6 And going forth, they traveled around, through the towns, evangelizing and curing everywhere.
Buna miyenda. Midiengila mu mala moso. Milonga nsamu Wumbote ayi mibelusa bambevo mu bibuangu bioso.
7 Now Herod the tetrarch heard about all the things that were being done by him, but he doubted, because it was said
Nyadi Elode wawu zitsangu zi mambu mamo mavioka, wukiyamisangolo. Bila bankaka batuba: “Yowani niandi wufulukidi mu bafua!”
8 by some, “For John has risen from the dead,” yet truly, by others, “For Elijah has appeared,” and by still others, “For one of the prophets from of old has risen again.”
Vayi bankaka: “Eli niandi wumonikini.” Vayi bankaka “Niandi widi mbikudi wumosi mu mimbikudi mikhulu, niandi fulukidi.”
9 And Herod said: “I beheaded John. So then, who is this, about whom I hear such things?” And he sought to see him.
Vayi Elode wuba tuba: —Keti minu veka ndizengisa Yowani ntu! Vayi buna nani mutuwowo, ndilembu wilanga mambu momo? Buna wutomba nzila mu kummona.
10 And when the Apostles returned, they explained to him all the things that they had done. And taking them with him, he withdrew to a deserted place apart, which belongs to Bethsaida.
Mimvuala mivutuka ayi mivumbudila Yesu kipholo ki mamo mivanga; wuba nata va lutengo ku ndambu divula dibeti tedila Betisayida.
11 But when the crowd had realized this, they followed him. And he received them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God. And those who were in need of cures, he healed.
Vayi nkangu wu batu bu bazaba nsamu beni, buna banlandakana. Yesu wuba yakula, wuba yolukila nsamu wu kipfumu ki Nzambi ayi wu belusa batu baba tsatu yi belusu.
12 Then the day began to decline. And drawing near, the twelve said to him: “Dismiss the crowds, so that, by going into the surrounding towns and villages, they may separate and find food. For we are here in a deserted place.”
Buisi buna bueka yila, kumi mimvuala miodi va kaba ayi minkamba: —Vutula nkangu wu batu muingi benda mu mala ayi mu zitsola zifikimini mu diambu babaka bidia ayi minleku bila va buangu kikambulu batu tuidi.
13 But he said to them, “You give them something to eat.” And they said, “There is with us no more than five loaves and two fish, unless perhaps we are to go and buy food for this entire multitude.”
Vayi Yesu wuba kamba: —Luba vananu beno veka bidia. Vayi bawu bavutula: —Mampa matanu kaka madi yeto ayi zimbizi zizole zi nlangu. Mananga tidi beto veka tuenda sumbi bidia mu diambu di batu boso baba e?
14 Now there were about five thousand men. So he said to his disciples, “Have them recline to eat in groups of fifty.”
Bila nduka-nduka mili tanu yi babakala yiba vana. Yesu wukamba minlonguki miandi: —Luba vuandisa mu makabu ma makumatanu ma batu.
15 And they did so. And they caused them all to recline to eat.
Buawu mivanga ayi mivuandisa batu boso.
16 Then, taking the five loaves and the two fish, he gazed up to heaven, and he blessed and broke and distributed them to his disciples, in order to set them before the crowd.
Buna Yesu wubonga mampa beni matanu ayi zimbizi beni zizole zi nlangu. Wumvumbula meso ku Yilu, wusakumuna mawu bosi wubukuna mawuayi wuvana mawu minlonguki miandi mu diambu bakabudila nkangu wu batu.
17 And they all ate and were satisfied. And twelve baskets of fragments were taken up, which were left over from them.
Bawu boso badia ayi bayukuta. Mu bitini bisiadidila, batota kumi bipani biodi.
18 And it happened that, when he was praying alone, his disciples also were with him, and he questioned them, saying: “Who do the multitudes say that I am?”
Lumbu kimosi Yesu kaba sambila va lutengu, minlonguki miandi miba yandi va kimosi. Buna wuba yuvula: —Buevi batu beti tubanga; minu ndidi nani e?
19 But they answered by saying: “John the Baptist. But some say Elijah. Yet truly, others say that one of the prophets from before has risen again.”
Minlonguki mimvutudila: —Bankaka beta tuba widi Yowani Mbotikii; bankaka Eli; bankakabeta tuba widi wumosi mu mimbikudi mi tsi khulu wufulukidi.
20 Then he said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” In response, Simon Peter said, “The Christ of God.”
Buna wuba yuvula: —Vayi benu veka, lueta tuba ti minu ndidi nani e? Buna Piela wumvutudila: —Ngeyo widi Klisto, wu Nzambi.
21 But speaking sharply to them, he instructed them not to tell this to anyone,
Buna Yesu wuba kamba: —Lubika kamba mambu mama kadi kuidi mutu wumosi.
22 saying, “For the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and the leaders of the priests and the scribes, and be killed, and on the third day rise again.”
Buna wubuela diaka: —Muana Mutu kafueti mona ziphasi ziwombo ayi bakulutu ba batu, bapfumu zi zinganga ayi minlongi mi mina miela kunloza. Wela vondu vayi wela fuluka mu lumbu kintatu.
23 Then he said to everyone: “If anyone is willing to come after me: let him deny himself, and take up his cross every day, and follow me.
Buna wukamba batu boso ti: —Enati mutu tidi kundandakana buna kafueti kukizimbakana niandi veka vayi kabonga dikulusi diandi kadika lumbu ayi kandandakana.
24 For whoever will have saved his life, will lose it. Yet whoever will have lost his life for my sake, will save it.
Bila woso tidi keba luzingu luandi wela luzimbisa vayi wosowela luzimbisa mu diambu diama, buna wela luvukisa.
25 For how does it benefit a man, if he were to gain the whole world, yet lose himself, or cause himself harm?
Enati mutu beki ntoto wumvimba vayi wukizimbisidi voti wukibivisidiniandi veka, buna ndandu mbi kambaka e?
26 For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words: of him the Son of man will be ashamed, when he will have arrived in his majesty and that of his Father and of the holy Angels.
Enati mutu wumfuididi tsoni voti fuidi tsoni mu diambu di mambu mama, buna Muana mutu wela kumfuila tsoni bu kela kuizila mu nkembuꞌandi, mu nkembo wu Tata ayi wu zimbasi zinlongo.
27 And yet, I tell you a truth: There are some standing here who shall not taste death, until they see the kingdom of God.”
Bukiedika ndikulukamba ti batu bankaka badi vava balendi ba fuako nate bela mona kipfumu ki Nzambi.
28 And it happened that, about eight days after these words, he took Peter and James and John, and he ascended onto a mountain, so that he might pray.
Dinana di bilumbu bu bivioka, landila mambu momo, Yesu wubonga Piela, Yowani ayi Zaki ayi wuyenda ku mbata mongo mu kuenda sambila.
29 And while he was praying, the appearance of his countenance was altered, and his vestment became white and shining.
Mu thangu kaba sambila, zizi kiandi kikituka, minledi miandimieka miphembi dio lio, milezama banga lusiemo.
30 And behold, two men were talking with him. And these were Moses and Elijah, appearing in majesty.
Batu buadi baba solula yandi: Moyize ayi Eli.
31 And they spoke of his departure, which he would accomplish at Jerusalem.
Mu bawu mu monika nkembo. Bayolukila lufua lolo kela dukisa ku Yelusalemi.
32 Yet truly, Peter and those who were with him were weighed down by sleep. And becoming alert, they saw his majesty and the two men who were standing with him.
Piela ayi bakundi bandi buadi baba baleka. Mu thandu bakotuka, bamona nkembo wu Yesu ayi bamona batu beni baba buadi baba yandi.
33 And it happened that, as these were departing from him, Peter said to Jesus: “Teacher, it is good for us to be here. And so, let us make three tabernacles: one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” For he did not know what he was saying.
Mu thangu batu beni baba nduka vambana ayi Yesu, Piela wunkamba: —Pfumu, bulutidi mboti tukala kuetu vava. Tueka tunga zinzozitatu zikapu: yimosi mu diambu diaku, yimosi mu diambu di Moyize, yimosi mu diambu di Eli. Vayi kasia zaba ko mambu momo katuba.
34 Then, as he was saying these things, a cloud came and overshadowed them. And as these were entering into the cloud, they were afraid.
Buna wukidi tubi, dituti dimosi diyiza ayi diba fukidila. Buna minlonguki mimona tsisi mu thangu mikota mu dituti.
35 And a voice came from the cloud, saying: “This is my beloved Son. Listen to him.”
Buna mbembo yitotuka mu dituti beni yiwakana: —Niandu niandi Muanꞌama wundisobula, lunwila!
36 And while the voice was being uttered, Jesus was found to be alone. And they were silent and told no one, in those days, any of these things, which they had seen.
Mbembo yoyo bu yiwakana, Yesu niandi veka wusiala. Vayi bawu baba dio sui; Mu bilumbu bina basia yolukila ko kadi kuidi mutu wumosi mambu momo bamona.
37 But it happened on the following day that, as they were descending from the mountain, a great crowd met him.
Mu lumbu kilanda bu baba kuluka mongo, nkangu wu batu wuyiza dengana Yesu.
38 And behold, a man from the crowd cried out, saying, “Teacher, I beg you, look kindly on my son, for he is my only son.
Muna nkangu beni mutotukila mutu wumosi wuyamikina: —A Nlongi, ndikuleba, tala muanꞌama wubakala. Wawu kaka muana widi yama.
39 And behold, a spirit takes hold of him, and he suddenly cries out, and it throws him down and convulses him, so that he foams. And though it tears him apart, it leaves him only with difficulty.
Mpeve yawu kumbuila, buna muana wunyamikinanga. Mpeve beni yinkuntutumunanga, yikuntotulanga difulu ayi bu yimeni kumvongisa bunabosi yinkumbikanga.
40 And I asked your disciples to cast him out, and they were unable.”
Ndebidingi minlonguki miaku muingi miyitotula vayi misi nunganga ko.
41 And in response, Jesus said: “O unfaithful and perverse generation! How long will I be with you and endure you? Bring your son here.”
Buna Yesu wuvutula: —Tsungi yikambulu minu ayi yimbimbi! Zithangu zikua ndielakadilanga yeno diaka va kimosi? Zithangu zikua ndiela buela kangilanga ntima mu bila kieno e? Buna wukamba mutu beni ti: —Tuala muanꞌaku vava!
42 And as he was approaching him, the demon threw him down and convulsed him.
Mu thangu muana kaba fikama, mpeve yimbimbi yinlumba va ntotoayi yitona kuntutumuna ngolo. Buna Yesu wutemina mu kingolo mpeveyimbimbi. Buna wubelusa muana wubakala ayi wutambika wawu kuidi Siandi.
43 And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and he healed the boy, and he restored him to his father.
Babo basimina mu diambu di bunneni bu Nzambi. Buna babo bakidi simina mu diambu di mambu moso momo Yesu kaba vanganga, buna wukamba minlonguki miandi:
44 And all were astonished at the greatness of God. And as everyone was wondering over all that he was doing, he said to his disciples: “You must set these words in your hearts. For it shall be that the Son of man will be delivered into the hands of men.”
—Lulunda bumbote mama luwilu bila Muana Mutu weka yekulu mu mioko mi batu.
45 But they did not understand this word, and it was concealed from them, so that they did not perceive it. And they were afraid to question him about this word.
Vayi minlonguki misia sudika ko mambu momo. Baba suekila tsundu yi mambu beni mu diambu mibika sudika. Ayi mimona tsisi mu yuvula tsunduyi mambu momo.
46 Now an idea entered into them, as to which of them was greater.
Ziphaka zitotuka mu bawu na bawu mu diambu di zaba nani lutidi munneni.
47 But Jesus, perceiving the thoughts of their hearts, took a child and stood him beside him.
Yesu bu kazaba mayindu mawu ma mintima miawu, wubonga muanalezi, wuntedimisa va ndambu andi
48 And he said to them: “Whoever will receive this child in my name, receives me; and whoever receives me, receives him who sent me. For whoever is the lesser among you all, the same is greater.”
ayi wuba kamba: —Woso mutu wunyakula muana wawu mu dizina diama buna minu kuandi kayakudi. Ayi woso wundiakudi buna yakudi diaka mutu wowo wuntuma. Bila woso lutidi keva mu beno, buna niandi lutidi munneni.
49 And responding, John said: “Teacher, we saw a certain one casting out demons in your name. And we prohibited him, for he does not follow with us.”
Buna Yowani wunkamba: —A nlongi, tumueningi mutu wumosi wulembu totulanga ziphevizimbimbi mu dizina diaku. Vayi tunkandikidingi bila kadiatanga yetu va kimosi ko.
50 And Jesus said to him: “Do not prohibit him. For whoever is not against you, is for you.”
Vayi Yesu wumvutudila ti: —Lubika kunkandika bila woso kambulu bumbeni kudi beno buna ku ndambu eno kadi.
51 Now it happened that, while the days of his dissipation were being completed, he steadfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem.
Thangu yoyi Yesu kafueti kuendila ku diyilu bu yifuana, bunawubaka lukanu lu kuenda ku Yelusalemi.
52 And he sent messengers before his face. And going on, they entered into a city of the Samaritans, to prepare for him.
Wufidisa mimvuala ku ntualꞌandi. Buna miyenda mikota mu buala bumosi bu Samali mu diambu minkubikila nleko.
53 And they would not receive him, because his face was going toward Jerusalem.
Vayi basi Samali bamanga ku ntambula bila ku Yelusalemi kaba kuenda.
54 And when his disciples, James and John, had seen this, they said, “Lord, do you want us to call for fire to descend from heaven and consume them?”
Minlonguki miandi, Zaki ayi Yowani, bu mimona bobo, mituba: —Pfumu, tidi tutumina mbazu, yintotukila ku diyilu, yibuila batu baba muingi yiba yoka?
55 And turning, he rebuked them, saying: “Do you not know of whose spirit you are?
Vayi Yesu wubaluka ayi wuba temina.
56 The Son of man came, not to destroy lives, but to save them.” And they went into another town.
Buna bayenda ku buala bunkaka.
57 And it happened that, as they were walking along the way, someone said to him, “I will follow you, wherever you will go.”
Buna bakidi mu nzila mutu wumosi wuyiza kamba Yesu: —Nlongi thidi kulandakana koso ku wunkuenda.
58 Jesus said to him: “Foxes have dens, and the birds of the air have nests. But the Son of man has nowhere to lay his head.”
Yesu wumvutudila: —Mimbaku midi ayi minsuku miawu momo mieta leka ayi zinuni zidiayi zindiala ziawu vayi muana mutu kasi ko buangu kivundisila ntu andi.
59 Then he said to another, “Follow me.” But he said, “Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father.”
Yesu wukamba kuidi wunkaka: —Ngeyo ndandakana. Vayi mutu beni wumvutudila: —A Pfumu, phani minsua ndienda tuami ziki siama.
60 And Jesus said to him: “Let the dead bury their dead. But you go and announce the kingdom of God.”
Buna Yesu wunkamba: —Bika bazika batu bawu bafua vayi ngeyo yenda samuna Kipfumu ki Nzambi.
61 And another said: “I will follow you, Lord. But permit me first to explain this to those of my house.”
Wunkaka diaka wunkamba: —A Pfumu, ndiela kulandakana vayi bika theti ndienda vanimboti zitsuka kuidi dikanda diama.
62 Jesus said to him, “No one who puts his hand to the plow, and then looks back, is fit for the kingdom of God.”
Vayi Yesu wumvutudila: —Mutu wowo simbidi tsengu mu sala mu tsola vayi tedi ku manima, kasi fuana ko mu diambu di Kipfumu ki Nzambi.
