Luke 15
1 And all the tax-gatherers and the sinners were coming near to him to hear him;
Basi bhatoza ushuru bhoha ni bhangi bhenye dhambi bhahidili kwa Yesu ni kump'elekesya.
2 and the Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying, This [man] receives sinners and eats with them.
Mafarisayo ni bhaandishi bhanung'uniki bhakajobha, “Munu ojho akabhakaribisya bhenye dhambi na ilya nabhu.”
3 And he spoke to them this parable, saying,
Yesu akajobha mfano obho kwa bhene, akajobha
4 What man of you having a hundred sheep, and having lost one of them, does not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness and go after that which is lost, until he find it?
“Niani kwa muenga, kama ajhe ni kondoo mia moja ni akajhaghayi mmonga bhabhi akabhaleka bhala tisini na tisa mu nyika, ni kulota kulonda jhola jha ajhaghili hadi ambonayi?
5 and having found it, he lays it upon his own shoulders, rejoicing;
Ni mwene akamalayi kun'kabha akambeka mumabega pa muene ni kufurahela.
6 and being come to the house, calls together the friends and the neighbours, saying to them, Rejoice with me, for I have found my lost sheep.
Bhoafikili mu nyumba, akabhakuta marafiki zake ni majirani bha muene akabhajobhela muhobhokayi pamonga ni nene, kwa kujha nikabhili kondoo jha akajhag'heli.'
7 I say unto you, that thus there shall be joy in heaven for one repenting sinner, [more] than for ninety and nine righteous who have no need of repentance.
Nikabhajobhela mebhu kubetakujha ni furaha kumbinguni kwandabha jhe mwenye dhambi mmonga jhaitubu, zaidi jha bhenye haki tisini na tisa ambabho bhajhelepi ni hajha jha kutubu.
8 Or, what woman having ten drachmas, if she lose one drachma, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and seek carefully till she find it?
Aajhe n'dala gani mwenye sarafu kumi sya hela, akajha ghibhwayi ni sarafu jhimonga, ibetakubhwasya lepi taa ni kufyaghila nyumba ni kulonda kwa bidii hadi paibetakujhikabha?
9 and having found it she calls together the friends and neighbours, saying, Rejoice with me, for I have found the drachma which I had lost.
Na akamalayi kujhibhona akabhakuta marafiki zake ni majirani zake kubhajobhela muhobhokayi pamonga ni nene, kwa kujha nijhikabhili kabhele sarafu jha nijhasili.
10 Thus, I say unto you, there is joy before the angels of God for one repenting sinner.
Hata hivyo nikabhajobhela kujhe ni furaha palongolo pa malaika bha K'yara kwa ndabha jha mwenye dhambi mmonga jha ibeta kutubu.
11 And he said, A certain man had two sons;
Ni Yesu akajobha, “Munu mmonga ajhe ni bhana bhabhele
12 and the younger of them said to his father, Father, give to me the share of the property that falls [to me]. And he divided to them what he was possessed of.
y'ola n'debe akan'jobhela dadimunu, Dadi nipelayi sehemu jha mali jhanistahili kujhirithi. Hivyo agawenye mali sya muene kati jha bhene.
13 And after not many days the younger son gathering all together went away into a country a long way off, and there dissipated his property, living in debauchery.
Magono mingilepi n'debe jhola akabhonganiya fyohe fyeimiliki akalota nchi jha patali, ni okhu akatapanya mali ni hela sya muene, kwa kuhemela fenu fyefilondekeghe lepi, ni kutabhwanya hela sya muene kwa anasa.
14 But when he had spent all there arose a violent famine throughout that country, and he began to be in want.
Ni muene bho atumili fyoha njala mbaha jhajhingili mu nchi jhela ni muene akajhanda kujha mu uhitaji.
15 And he went and joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
Akalota ni kujiajiri muene kwa mmonga ghwa raia bhwa nchi jhela, ni muene akampeleke kun'gonda kulisya maghorobhi.
16 And he longed to fill his belly with the husks which the swine were eating; and no one gave to him.
Na akajha inoghela kwishibisya kwa, maganda ghaghalijheghe maghorobhi kwandabha ajhelepi munu jha ampelili khenu kyokyoha khela abhwesya kulya.
17 And coming to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father's have abundance of bread, and I perish here by famine.
Ila jhola muana n'debe bho azingatili mu muoyo bhwa muene, ajobhili 'Ni bhatumishi bhalenga bha dadijhangu bhajhe ni kyakulya kingi kya kutosha ni nene nijhe apa nifwa ni njala!
18 I will rise up and go to my father, and I will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and before thee;
Nibhoka ni kulota kwa dadijhangu, ni kun'jobhela, “Dadi nikukosili juu jha mbingu ni palongolo pa mihu jhobhi.
19 I am no longer worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.
Nikastahili lepi kukutibhwa mwanabhu kabhele; nifwanyajhi kama mmonga ghwa bhatumishi bha jhobhi.”
20 And he rose up and went to his own father. But while he was yet a long way off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and ran, and fell upon his neck, and covered him with kisses.
Ndipo akabhoka akalota kwa dadi munu. Bho ajhe patali dadi munu ambwene akambonela huruma akalota mbio ni kun'kumbatila ni kumbusu.
21 And the son said to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and before thee; I am no longer worthy to be called thy son.
Mwana jhola akan'jobhela, “dadi nikosili juu jha mbingu ni palongolo pa mihu gha bhebhe nikastahili lepi kukutibhwa mwanabhu.'
22 But the father said to his bondmen, Bring out the best robe and clothe him in [it], and put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet;
Dadi munu jhola abhajobhili bhatumishi bha muene, muliletayi livazi lyalijhele linofu, mukamfwekayi mufwatikayi ni pete mu kikonji ni filatu mu magolo.
23 and bring the fatted calf and kill it, and let us eat and make merry:
Kisha mundetayi jhola jhaanenipi mukan'chinjayi tulieyi ni kuhobhoka.
24 for this my son was dead and has come to life, was lost and has been found. And they began to make merry.
Kwa kujha mwanabhangu afuili ni muene ajhe hai. Ajhele ajhaghili ni muene abhonekene bhakajhanda kushangilila.
25 And his elder son was in the field; and as, coming [up], he drew nigh to the house, he heard music and dancing.
Basi jhola mwanamunu mbaha ajhele kun'gonda. Bho ihida ni kukaribila pa nyumba ap'eliki ny'embu ni michezo.
26 And having called one of the servants, he inquired what these things might be.
Akan'kuta mtumishi mmonga ni kun'kota mambo agha maana yake kiki?
27 And he said to him, Thy brother is come, and thy father has killed the fatted calf because he has received him safe and well.
Mtumishi akan'jobhela mbenabhu ahidili ni dadi waku an'chinjili litoli jha anonili kwandabha akerebhuiki kinofu.'
28 But he became angry and would not go in. And his father went out and besought him.
Mwana mbaha akadada akabela kujhingila mgati ni dadimunu akahoma kwibhala kumsihi. Ila akan'jibu dadimunu akajobha, 'Langayi
29 But he answering said to his father, Behold, so many years I serve thee, and never have I transgressed a commandment of thine; and to me hast thou never given a kid that I might make merry with my friends:
nene nikutumikili kwa miaka ghimehele, wala nikosilepi amri jha jhobhi, unipelili lepi mwana mene, ili nisherehekelayi ni marafiki zangu.
30 but when this thy son, who has devoured thy substance with harlots, is come, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.
Lakini bho ahidili ojho mwanabhu jhaa tapenye mali gha jhobhi ghoha pamonga ni makahaba un'chinjili litoli lya linenepi.
31 But he said to him, Child, thou art ever with me, and all that is mine is thine.
Dadimunu akan'jobhela, 'Mwanabhangu, bhebhe ujhele pamonga ni nene magono ghoha ni fyoha fyanijhe nafu ndo fyajhobhi.
32 But it was right to make merry and rejoice, because this thy brother was dead and has come to life again, and was lost and has been found.
Ila jhajhele kinofu kwa tete kubhomba sherehe ni kubhoka, ndongobhu ojho afuili, ni henu muomi; ajhele ajhele ajhaghili ni muene abhonekene.”
