Luke 18
1 And then He told them a parable, the point being that one needs to always pray and not lose heart,
Akhavavula ikhikhwani umwakhudovela, valekheukhugatala.
2 saying: “There was a judge in a certain town who did not fear God nor regard man.
Akhanchova, “khwale nug'egi khujini uguge, uvisadwadage UNguluve na salikhuvadwadwa avanu.
3 But there was a widow in that town, and she kept coming to him, saying, ‘Get justice for me from my adversary.’
Kkwale nufwele khulijiji ilyo, mwope adutelaga mara khingi, alekhuta,'unugeukhukhava uwoyelweli ukhuhuma khumbivi vago.'
4 And for a while he refused; but afterward he said to himself, ‘Even though I don't fear God nor regard man,
Khusekhi utali sale tayari ukhutanga, usekhi gwagwavile gulutile akhanchova munumbula ya mwene, 'Ndayeve une sanikhudwadwa U Nguluve au sanikhumwimikha umunu,
5 yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will defend her, so that her endless coming doesn't wear me out!’”
Ulwakhuva ufwele uyu ikhugatancha nikhutanga ukhukava uwayelweli wa mwene, alekhe ukhu gatancha ukhunyinchila khita sekhi.”
6 Then the Lord said: “Hear what the unjust judge said.
Untwa akhanchova, 'Polekhincha uwoanchovile ug'egi umbivi.
7 And will not God get justice for His elect who are crying out to Him day and night, indeed being patient with them?
U Nguluve salagega uwayelweli khuvavalanche va mwene avikhu delila pamusi na pakhilo? Umwene, sakhumilaga khuvene?
8 I tell you that He will get justice for them quickly. However, when the Son of the Man comes, will He actually find the faith on the earth?”
Nikhuvavula ukhuta ig'ega uvugolofu khuvene nambivi. Ulwakhuva umwene va Ndavati alavaikhwincha, alaluvona ulwidikho mkhilunga?'
9 Then He told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised the rest:
Pwa akhavavula ikhikhwani ikhi khuvanu avavikhivona valinuwa yelweli nukhuvabeda avanu avange,
10 “Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.
Avavuvavili vatogileukhuluta khutembile khukhwisaya: Yumo U Farisai nuyuge usongasogo.
11 The Pharisee stood and started praying to himself like this: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like all the rest—robbers, unjust, adulterers—or even like this tax collector.
U Farisai aklima akhadova inogwa inchi inchi mwene yuywa, 'Nguluve, nikhukhulemya ulwakhuva une sanikhwanine ndavage avanu avipokha afya vanu, avanu avavili avaligu, nduyu usogencha songo.
12 I fast twice a week; I tithe all that I get.’
Nidenda mara khavili khulugo. Nikhumya isadakha ukhuma khuvukhavi wangu. '
13 The tax collector, staying a good ways off, did not even venture to look up to heaven, but started beating on his chest, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me a sinner!’
Pwu usogasongo akhima khuvutali, alemilwe ukwinula amiho sa'mwene khukyanya, alikhutova ekhifuva khya mwene akhata, 'Dada usyekhile une netula nongwa.'
14 I say to you that this one went back home justified rather than that one; because everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
Nikhuvavula, umunu uyu avayilekhu khaya mwavasyekiliwa imbivi, khulikho ula uyug'e, ulwakhuva ula uveikhwiginia ikhwisiwa, uveikhweyisya ikhwinuliwa. '
15 Then they even started bringing their babies to Him, that He might touch them; but when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them.
Avanu vavagegile avana avadebe, avabasye, avakhogi vavilevalolile ewo, vakhavasikha.
16 But Jesus summoned them and said: “Allow the little children to come to me, and do not hinder them; because the Kingdom of God is of such.
U Yesu akhavilaga khumwene akhata, “Valekhe avana avadebe vinchag'e khulyune, mlekhe ukhuvasiga. Lwa vanu ndava.
17 I tell you assuredly, whoever does not receive the Kingdom of God the way a little child does will by no means enter it.”
Mwidekhage, nikhuvavula, umunu uviavenchaga uvesikhwambelila uludeva lwa Nguluve ndu mwana lweli salig'ela. '
18 A certain ruler asked Him, saying, “Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
Undogonchi yumo akhambuncha, akhandova, 'Imanyisi inonu, negahe ndakhikhi pwu nikhave uvumi uwa sikhunchoni?' (aiōnios g166)
19 So Jesus said to him: “Why do you call me good? No one is good except one—God.
U Yesu akhanchova, 'khikhi mkhuyilanga nilinonu? Osikhuli umunu unonu, yu Nguluve mwene.
20 You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not give false testimony, honor your father and your mother.’”
Unchimayile indagilo, ulaligupaga, ulabudaga, ulakhenchaga, uladetaga uvudesi, uvadwadege adadayo na vava vanyokho.
21 And he said, “All these I have kept from my youth.”
Undogonchi akhanchova, 'inogwa inchi nibite ukhuhuma nilidemi.'
22 Well upon hearing these things Jesus said to him, “You still lack one thing: sell all you have and distribute to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.”
U Yesu avileapulikhe inchi akhambula, “Khisigile ikhenu kimo. Ugunche fyoni ufyolinafyo uwape avalemilwe nuve wiva nekhebana khukyanya, pwu winche ug'ogaga. '
23 But when he heard this he became very sad, because he was extremely rich.
Utayari avileapolikhe ewo, akhalile lweli, ulwakha ale mofu.
24 When Jesus saw that he became sad, He said: “How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter the Kingdom of God!
Pwu U Yesu, akhambona wvavipile lweli akhanchova, uwuyelava tabu khuvakhani ukwing'ela khuludeva lwa Nguluve!
25 It is actually easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God!”
Ulwakhuva yilava khilele tingamila pkhalyango akhasindano, ukhulutala kavi ukhwigeila kuludeva lwa Nguluve. '
26 So the hearers said, “Who then can be saved?”
Avapulikhe incho, vakhanchova, 'Veni lino, uviyakhiva ipona?'
27 And He said, “The things that are impossible with men are possible with God.”
U Yesu akhanda, 'Inogwa inchile mchine khuvanu kuwa Nguluve inchikhwidekhana.”
28 Then Peter said, “Notice that we have left all and followed you!”
U Peteli akhanchova, 'ufwe, tufile khile fyoni tukhukhogile uve. '
29 So He said to them, “Assuredly I say to you, there is no one who has left house or parents or brothers or wife or children, for the sake of the Kingdom of God,
Pwu U Yesu akhavavula, Mwidikhag'e, nikhuvavula asikhuli umunu uveayelekhile inyumba, udala, avalukhololwe, avahonchi na vana, khuludeva lwa Nguluve,
31 Then He took the Twelve aside and said to them: “Take note, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all the things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of the Man will be fulfilled:
Avile avalundaminye vale khinchigo na vaveli, akhavavula, 'Mlolage, twitoga ukhuluta khu Yerusalemu, inogwa nchoni inchisimbiwe na vayamalago khu mwana va Adamu nchinchivombekha.
32 He will be betrayed to the Gentiles, and will be mocked and insulted and spit upon,
Ulwakhuva evekhikhiwa mumavokho ga vayapanchi vikhumbombela imbivi, nukhube hela
33 and they will scourge and kill Him. And on the third day He will rise again.”
amati. Wuvatovile ni ngomo vikhumbuda isikhu iya datu inchukha. '
34 But they understood none of these things; this saying was hidden from them, and they did not know what was being said.
Savanchimaye inongwa nchi, nelimenyu ililyafihiwe khuvene, na savalumaye inongwa inchinchoviwa.
35 Then it happened, as He approached Jericho, that a certain blind man was sitting alongside the road begging.
U Yesu avileahegelile ku Yeriko, umunu yumo uviabofwile atamile mudu khanchi musewe alikhudova ulutagilo,
36 Hearing a crowd going by, he asked what it was.
Akhapulikha avanu wu vigenda akhavuncha khenukhekhi ikhivone kha.
37 So they told him that Jesus the Natsorean was passing by.
Vakhambula vakhata U Yesu uva Munazareti igenda.
38 Well he shouted, saying, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”
Pwu ubofule akhalila fincho, akhata, 'Yesu, vi mwana va Ndaveti, ug'olele ikhisa.'
39 Those who led the way started reproving him, to shut him up; but he kept calling out all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
Avagendaga vakhabencha ula ubofule, vakhara anunale. Umwene akhendelela ukhulila fincho, 'Mwana va Ndaveti, ug'oleleikhisa.
40 So Jesus stopped and ordered that he be brought to Him. When he got close He asked him, saying,
U Yesu akhima akhavavula umunu ula akhilikhiwe khumwene.
41 “What do you want me to do for you?” So he said, “Lord, that I may see again!”
Ubofule avile ahegelelile, U Yesu akhambuncha, Winogwa nikhuvombelekhikhi?' Akhanda, 'Dada, ninogwa ukhulola.'
42 Then Jesus said to him: “See again! Your faith has made you well.”
U Yesu akhambula, 'Ulolage. Ulwidikho lwakho lukhuponinche.'
43 And immediately he did! and he followed Him, glorifying God. And all who witnessed it gave praise to God.
Usikhi ugwa alikhulola, akha khonga U Yesu nukhuginia U Nguluve. Vavilevalolile ewo avanu voni vakhaginia U Nguluve.
