Luke 19
1 And entering in, he walked through Jericho.
Yesu kingiriti Yeriku, kaweriti kankupita munjira za lushi alu.
2 And behold, there was a man named Zacheus, who was the chief of the publicans, and he was rich.
Kuweriti na mkulu gwa watola kodi yawamshema Zakayu, mweni kaweriti mlundamali.
3 And he sought to see Jesus who he was, and he could not for the crowd, because he was low of stature.
Kafiriti kumwona Yesu kaweriti gwa ntambu gaa, kumbiti toziya ya lipinga lya wantu na toziya kaweriti mfupi, na kasinditi kumwona Yesu.
4 And running before, he climbed up into a sycamore tree, that he might see him; for he was to pass that way.
Su kalongolera mbiru, kakwena pampindi pa mkuyu su kawezi kumwona Yesu kaweriti kankupita njira ayi.
5 And when Jesus was come to the place, looking up, he saw him, and said to him: Zacheus, make haste and come down; for this day I must abide in thy house.
Yesu pakaweriti kankwiza pahala palii, kaloliti kumtera na kumgambira Zakayu, “Kanongola gusuluki, toziya nfiruwa kulikala mnumba mwaku leru.”
6 And he made haste and came down; and received him with joy.
Zakayu kasuluka kanongola, kumshemera kwa kunemelera.
7 And when all saw it, they murmured, saying, that he was gone to be a guest with a man that was a sinner.
Wantu woseri pawawoniti hangu, wanjiti kuhinginika pawalonga, “Muntu ayu kagenda kuwera muhenga yakanaligoya ukaya kwa yakana vidoda!”
8 But Zacheus standing, said to the Lord: Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have wronged any man of any thing, I restore him fourfold.
Zakayu kagoloka, kumgambira Mtuwa, “Gupikaniri, Mtuwa! Hanuwapanani wahushu nusu ya ulunda wangu, na handa panumupokiti muntu yoseri kwa kumupayira hanumuwuzilili mala msheshi.”
9 Jesus said to him: This day is salvation come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham.
Yesu kamgambira, “Ulopoziwu usoka mnumba amu leru, toziya muntu ayu vira ndo kamushiyiwuku sha Aburahamu.
10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
Mwana gwa Muntu kiziti kusakula na kuwalopoziya yawagamiliti.”
11 As they were hearing these things, he added and spoke a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately be manifested.
Wantu pawaweriti wankupikanira aga, Yesu kendereyiti kuwagambira mfanu. Pakaweriti pakwegera kusoka Yerusalemu na wantu walii waliholiti kuwera Ufalumi wa Mlungu sambira usoka.
12 He said therefore: A certain nobleman went into a far country, to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
Su kawagambira, “Kuweriti na muntu yumu yakaweriti mkulu yakagenda muisi ya kutali kaweri mfalumi, shakapanu kawuyi ukaya.
13 And calling his ten servants, he gave them ten pounds, and said to them: Trade till I come.
Pamberi pa kuwuka, kawashemiti wantumintumi wakuwi lilongu na kuwapanani mpiya kila yumu na kuwagambira, ‘Guloli ntambu yamuweza kutenda pambuka.’
14 But his citizens hated him: and they sent an embassage after him, saying: We will not have this man to reign over us.
Vinu wantu wakuwi wamgalambukiti, pakawukiti kala, wawatumiti wajumbi walongi, ‘Tumfira ndiri muntu ayu kaweri mfalumi gwetu.’
15 And it came to pass, that he returned, having received the kingdom: and he commanded his servants to be called, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading.
“Muntu ulii pawamtyeka kala kuwera mfalumi kawuyiti ukaya. Palii kawashemiti wantumintumi wakuwi kafira kavimani ntambu ya kila muntu kapata mpiya zininga kuliku ntambu yakawayupiti.
16 And the first came, saying: Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.
Ntumintumi gwa kwanja kiza na kulonga, ‘Mtuwa, mpata mpiya lilongu nentu ya mpiya yimu yagunupiti.’
17 And he said to him: Well done, thou good servant, because thou hast been faithful in a little, thou shalt have power over ten cities.
Nayomberi kamgambira, ‘Gutenda weri, gwenga gwa ntumintumi guherepa! Toziya guwera gwa mwaminika kwa shintu shididini, hanukutuli guweri mkulu kwa lushi zya milongu.’
18 And the second came, saying: Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.
Ntumintumi gwa pili kiza na katakula, ‘Mtuwa, mpata mpiya zyamuhanu nentu ya mpiya yimu yagunupiti.’
19 And he said to him: Be thou also over five cities.
Kwa yumu ayu kamgambira, ‘Haguweri mkulu gwa lushi zya muhanu.’
20 And another came, saying: Lord, behold here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin;
“Ntumintumi gwingi kiza na kutakula, ‘Mtuwa, mpiya yaku ayi, ntawiti mushitambala.
21 For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up what thou didst not lay down, and thou reapest that which thou didst not sow.
Nukutuliriti gwenga toziya gwenga gwa muntu gukalipa. Gwenga gutolaga shilii shaku ndiri na kubena shilii shaguyala ndiri.’
22 He saith to him: Out of thy own mouth I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up what I laid not down, and reaping that which I did not sow:
Nayomberi kamgambira, ‘Gwenga gwa ntumintumi gufaa ndiri! Nukutoza kulawirana na visoweru vyaku! Guvimana neni muntu nkalipa, ntola shilii shashiwera ndiri shaneni na mbenanga vilii vyanyala ndiri.’
23 And why then didst thou not give my money into the bank, that at my coming, I might have exacted it with usury?
Su iwera hashi gutuliti ndiri mpiya zyangu muluhanja? Pambuyiti hampati mpiya yangu pamuhera na mota yakuwi.”
24 And he said to them that stood by: Take the pound away from him, and give it to him that hath ten pounds.
“Shakapanu kawagambira woseri yawaweriti wagoloka palii, ‘Mmupoki mpiya ayi na mumupi ntumintumi ulii yakongeriti mpiya lilongu.’
25 And they said to him: Lord, he hath ten pounds.
Kumbiti womberi wamgambira, ‘Mtuwa, ayu kana mpiya kala mala lilongu!’
26 But I say to you, that to every one that hath shall be given, and he shall abound: and from him that hath not, even that which he hath, shall be taken from him.
Nayomberi kawankula, ‘Nukugambirani woseri yawawera na shintu, hawongelerwi, kumbiti woseri yawahera na shintu, ata shilii shididini shawawera nashi hawawapoki.
27 But as for those my enemies, who would not have me reign over them, bring them hither, and kill them before me.
Vinu woseri walii yawaweriti wangondu wangu yawanfira ndiri neni nweri mfalumi gwawu, muwajegi panu na kuwalaga palongolu pa masu gangu!’”
28 And having said these things, he went before, going up to Jerusalem.
Yesu pakatakuliti kala aga, su kawalonguleriti kugenda Yerusalemu.
29 And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethania, unto the mount called Olivet, he sent two of his disciples,
Pakaweriti pakwegera kusoka Betifagi na Betaniya, mulugongu lwa Mizeyituni, kawatumiti wafundwa wawili
30 Saying: Go into the town which is over against you, at your entering into which you shall find the colt of an ass tied, on which no man ever hath sitten: loose him, and bring him hither.
kawagambira, “Mgendi mushijiji sha palongolu penu, pamwingira hamwoni punda wamtawa mweni hakenitumiki na muntu. Mumyopoli na mumjegi panu.
31 And if any man shall ask you: Why do you loose him? you shall say thus unto him: Because the Lord hath need of his service.
Muntu yoseri pakawakosiya, iwera hashi mwankumyopola, mumgambiri Mtuwa kamfira.”
32 And they that were sent, went their way, and found the colt standing, as he had said unto them.
Wagenditi munjira yawu, wawona kila shintu Yesu ntambu yakawagambiriti.
33 And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said to them: Why loose you the colt?
Pawaweriti wankumyopola punda ulii, weni yawawera na punda wawakosiya, “Iwera hashi mwankumyopola punda ayu?”
34 But they said: Because the Lord hath need of him.
Nawomberi wamwankula, “Mtuwa kamfira,”
35 And they brought him to Jesus. And casting their garments on the colt, they set Jesus thereon.
su wamjega punda ulii kwa Yesu. Shakapanu wamyalikira nguwu zyawu pampindi pa punda na wamtanga Yesu kumkweniziya pampindi pakuwi.
36 And as he went, they spread their clothes underneath in the way.
Yesu kendereya na mwanja, na wantu wayalika nguwu zyawu munjira.
37 And when he was now coming near the descent of mount Olivet, the whole multitude of his disciples began with joy to praise God with a loud voice, for all the mighty works they had seen,
Pakasokiti pakwegera na Yerusalemu, panjira panda ya lugongu lwa Mizeyituni, lipinga likulu lya wafundwa wanjiti kutenda lusheka na nemeleru walonga mayagashii Mlungu na kumkwisa yomberi kwa liziwu likulu pawatakula mauzauza makulu wagawoniti,
38 Saying: Blessed be the king who cometh in the name of the Lord, peace in heaven, and glory on high!
“Mlungu gumtekeleri mfalumi yakiza mulitawu lya Mtuwa! Ponga iweri kumpindi nentu kwa Mlungu na ukwisa uweri kwa Mlungu!”
39 And some of the Pharisees, from amongst the multitude, said to him: Master, rebuke thy disciples.
Shakapanu Wamafalisayu wamu mulipinga lilii lya wantu wamgambira Yesu, “mfunda, guwanyamaziyi wafundwa waku.”
40 To whom he said: I say to you, that if these shall hold their peace, the stones will cry out.
Yesu kawankula, “Nukugambirani, handa pawanyamalila, mabuhi aga haganji kubotanga.”
41 And when he drew near, seeing the city, he wept over it, saying:
Pawasokiti pakwegera na lushi lwa Yerusalemu, na pakaluwona kanjiti kululilira,
42 If thou also hadst known, and that in this thy day, the things that are to thy peace; but now they are hidden from thy eyes.
kalonga, “Meguvimani! Leru ayi vitwtatira vijega ponga. Kumbiti vinu galififa pamasu paku.
43 For the days shall come upon thee, and thy enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and straiten thee on every side,
Shipindi shankwiza ndo sheni wangondu waku hawakuzyengeti kwa maboma, hawakupingili na kukubabanika wega zoseri.
44 And beat thee flat to the ground, and thy children who are in thee: and they shall not leave in thee a stone upon a stone: because thou hast not known the time of thy visitation.
Hawakwagamiziyi gwenga na wantu yawalikala mngati, hapeni wakulekeli ata libuwi limu panani pa limonga, toziya gushimana ndiri shipindi sha Mlungu pakakwiziriti kukulopoziya.”
45 And entering into the temple, he began to cast out them that sold therein, and them that bought.
Shakapanu Yesu kingiriti Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu na kanja kuwawinga walii yawawuza vintu palii,
46 Saying to them: It is written: My house is the house of prayer. But you have made it a den of thieves.
kawagambira, “Walembiti mumalembu, Mlungu pakalonga, ‘Numba nkulu ya neni hayiweri numba ya kusalira.’ Kumbiti mwenga muyitenda mpanga ya wapoka.”
47 And he was teaching daily in the temple. And the chief priests and the scribes and the rulers of the people sought to destroy him:
Kila lishaka Yesu kaweriti kankufunda Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu. Watambika wakulu na wafunda wa Malagaliru, na wakulu wa wantu wafiriti kumlaga,
48 And they found not what to do to him: for all the people were very attentive to hear him.
kumbiti wasinditi ntambu yakutenda aga, toziya wantu woseri waweriti wankumpikinira weri kila shisoweru shakatakuliti, na wafiriti ndiri kukosa shisoweru ata shimu.
