Luke 17
1 Jesus said to his disciples, “Temptations are unavoidable, but it will be a disaster for those through whom they come!
Yesu alobaki na bayekoli na Ye: — Makambo oyo ebetisaka bato mabaku ekoki kozanga te; kasi mawa na moto oyo, na nzela na ye, makambo yango eyaka!
2 For such people it would be better to have a millstone hung around the neck and be thrown into the sea than to cause these little ones to sin.
Ekoleka malamu mpo na ye kokanga ye libanga monene ya enikelo, na kingo mpe kobwaka ye na ebale, na esika ya kotika ye kokweyisa na masumu moko kati na bana mike oyo.
3 So take care what you do. If your brother sins, warn him; and if he repents, forgive him.
Bosala penza keba mpo na bolamu na bino! Soki ndeko na yo asali yo mabe, pamela ye; mpe soki ayoki mawa mpo na mabe yango, limbisa ye.
4 Even if he sins against you seven times a day, and seven times comes back and tells you, ‘I'm really sorry,’ forgive him.”
Mpe soki, na mokolo moko, asali yo mabe mbala sambo, mpe ayei epai na yo mbala sambo koloba na yo: « Nayoki mawa mpo na mabe na ngai, » limbisa ye!
5 The apostles said to the Lord, “Help us to have more trust!”
Bantoma balobaki na Nkolo: — Bakisa kondima na biso!
6 The Lord replied, “Even if your trust was as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, ‘Uproot yourself, and plant yourself in the sea,’ and it would obey you.
Nkolo azongisaki: — Soki bozali na kondima oyo ezali moke lokola mbuma ya mutarde, bokoki koloba na nzete oyo: « Pikolama na esika oyo mpe kende komilona kati na ebale, » mpe ekotosa bino.
7 Say you have a servant who does plowing or shepherding. When he comes in from work, do you say to him, ‘Come in and sit down now for a meal’?
Nani kati na bino, soki azali na mosali bilanga to na mobateli bibwele, akoloba na ye tango azongi wuta na bilanga: « Yaka noki, vanda na mesa mpo ete olia? »
8 No. You say to him, ‘Prepare a meal for me, get yourself dressed, and serve me until I've finished my meal. After that you can have your meal.’
Boni, akoloba na ye te: « Lambela ngai bilei, lata bilamba na yo ya mosala mpo na kotiela ngai biloko na mesa, kino nasilisa kolia mpe komela; sima na yango nde yo mpe okoki kolia mpe komela? »
9 And do you thank the servant for doing what you told him? No.
Boni, akozongisela mosali wana matondi mpo ete asali mosala oyo atindaki ye?
10 Likewise once you've done everything you were told, you should simply say, ‘We are undeserving servants. We just did our duty.’”
Ndenge moko mpe mpo na bino: soki bosali nyonso oyo batindi bino, boloba: « Tozali basali ya pamba, tokokisi kaka mokumba na biso. »
11 As Jesus continued on his way to Jerusalem, he passed along the border between Samaria and Galilee.
Wana Yesu azalaki kokende na Yelusalemi, alekaki na mondelo kati na Samari mpe na Galile.
12 As he entered a particular village, ten lepers met him, standing at a distance.
Lokola azalaki kokota na mboka moko, bato na maba zomi bayaki kokutana na Ye; batelemaki na mosika
13 They called out, “Jesus, Master, please have mercy on us.”
mpe babandaki kobelela Ye na mongongo makasi: — Mokonzi, Yesu, yokela biso mawa!
14 When Jesus saw them, he said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” On their way there, they were healed.
Tango Yesu amonaki bango, alobaki: — Bokende komilakisa epai ya Banganga-Nzambe! Wana bazalaki kokende kuna, bakomaki peto.
15 One of them when he saw that he was healed, returned to Jesus, shouting praises to God.
Tango moko kati na bango amonaki ete abiki na bokono na ye, azongaki na kokumisa Nzambe na mongongo makasi.
16 He fell down at Jesus' feet, thanking him. He was a Samaritan.
Afukamaki na makolo ya Yesu, elongi kino na se, mpe azongiselaki Ye matondi. Moto yango azalaki moto ya Samari.
17 “Weren't ten lepers healed?” Jesus asked. “Where are the other nine?
Bongo Yesu atunaki: — Boni, bango nyonso zomi bakomi peto te? Wapi bato mosusu libwa?
18 Didn't anyone else come back to praise God—only this foreigner?”
Moko te azongi mpo na kopesa Nzambe nkembo, longola kaka mopaya oyo?
19 Jesus told the man, “Get up and go on your way. Your trust has healed you.”
Bongo alobaki na moto yango ya Samari: — Telema mpe kende; kondima na yo ebikisi yo!
20 Once, when the Pharisees came and asked him when God's kingdom would come, Jesus replied, “God's kingdom doesn't come with visible signs that you can observe.
Mokolo moko, Bafarizeo batunaki Yesu: — Bokonzi ya Nzambe ekoya tango nini? Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Bokonzi ya Nzambe ekoya te na lolenge ete bato bamona yango.
21 People won't be saying, ‘Look, it's here’ or ‘Look, it's there,’ for God's kingdom is among you.”
Bakoloba te: « Ezali awa » to « Ezali kuna, » pamba te Bokonzi ya Nzambe ezali kati na bino.
22 Then Jesus told the disciples, “The time is coming when you'll long to see the day when the Son of man comes, but you won't see it.
Bongo alobaki na bayekoli na Ye: — Tango ezali koya, tango oyo bokozala na posa makasi ya komona ata mokolo moko kati na mikolo ya Mwana na Moto, kasi bokomona yango te.
23 They'll be telling you, ‘Look, there he is,’ or ‘Look, here he is,’ but don't go running off after them.
Bakoloba na bino: « Azali awa! » to « Azali kuna! » Bolanda bango te!
24 The day when the Son of man comes will be just like lightning that flashes, lighting up the sky from one side to the other.
Pamba te, na mokolo na Ye, Mwana na Moto akozala lokola mokalikali oyo epeli mpe engengisi likolo longwa na este kino na weste.
25 But first he will have to suffer many things, and be rejected by this generation.
Kasi liboso ete mokolo yango ekoma, asengeli komona pasi mingi, mpe bato ya ekeke oyo basengeli koboya Ye.
26 The time when the Son of man comes will be like it was in Noah's day.
Ndenge esalemaki na tango ya Noa, ndenge wana mpe ekosalema na tango ya Mwana na Moto:
27 People went on eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage until the day Noah went into the ark. Then the flood came and destroyed them all.
bato bazalaki kolia, komela, kobala mpe kobalisa, kino na mokolo oyo Noa akotaki na masuwa; bongo mpela eyaki mpe ebomaki bango nyonso.
28 It will be like it was in Lot's day. People went on eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building.
Ezalaki mpe bongo na tango ya Loti: bato bazalaki kolia, komela, kosomba, koteka, kolona mpe kotonga.
29 But on the day Lot left Sodom, fire and brimstone rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.
Kasi na mokolo oyo Loti abimaki wuta na Sodome, mvula ya moto mpe ya fofolo ekitaki wuta na likolo mpe ebomaki bango nyonso.
30 The day when the Son of man appears will be just like that.
Ekozala mpe bongo, na mokolo oyo Mwana na Moto akomonana.
31 If you're up on the roof that day don't go down and get your things; and if you're out in the fields don't go back home either.
Na mokolo yango, moto oyo akozala na likolo ya ndako na ye asengeli te kokita mpo na kozwa biloko kati na ndako na ye, mpe moto oyo akozala kati na bilanga na ye asengeli te kozonga na ndako mpo na likambo songolo.
32 Remember Lot's wife!
Bokanisa makambo oyo ekomelaki mwasi ya Loti!
33 If you try to hold on to your life you'll lose it; but if you lose your life you'll save it.
Moto oyo akoluka kobatela bomoi na ye akobungisa yango, mpe moto oyo akobungisa bomoi na ye akobatela yango.
34 I tell you, at that time two will be in bed at night; one will be taken and the other left.
Nazali koloba na bino: na butu wana, bato mibale bakozala na likolo ya mbeto moko: moko akokamatama, mpe mosusu akotikala;
35 Two women will be grinding grain, one will be taken; and the other left.”
basi mibale bakozala konika bambuma elongo: moko akokamatama, mpe mosusu akotikala; [
mibali mibale bakozala kati na elanga moko: moko akokamatama, mpe mosusu akotikala.]
37 “Where, Lord?” they asked. “Where the carcass is, that's where the vultures gather,” Jesus replied.
Bayekoli batunaki Yesu: — Nkolo, makambo yango ekosalema wapi? Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Epai ebembe ezali, kuna nde bandeke oyo eliaka bibembe ekosangana.
