Luke 7
1 When hee had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entred into Capernaum.
Zvino wakati apedza mashoko ake ese munzeve dzevanhu, akapinda muKapenaume.
2 And a certaine Ceturions seruant was sicke and readie to die, which was deare vnto him.
Zvino muranda weumwe mukuru wezana, waiva akakosha kwaari, wakange achirwara, achitandadza.
3 And when he heard of Iesus, hee sent vnto him the Elders of the Iewes, beseeching him that he would come, and heale his seruant.
Zvino wakati anzwa zvaJesu, akatuma kwaari vakuru veVaJudha, achikumbira kuti auye aporese muranda wake.
4 So they came to Iesus, and besought him instantly, saying that hee was worthy that hee should doe this for him:
Zvino ivo vakati vachisvika kuna Jesu, vakamukumbirisa zvikuru, vachiti: Wakafanira kuti mumuitire izvozvi;
5 For he loueth, said they, our nation, and he hath built vs a Synagogue.
nokuti anoda rudzi rwedu, uye ndiye wakativakira sinagoge.
6 Then Iesus went with them: but when he was now not farre from the house, the Centurion sent friendes to him, saying vnto him, Lord, trouble not thy selfe: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter vnder my roofe:
Zvino Jesu akaenda navo. Zvino apo akange asisiri kure neimba, mukuru wezana akatuma shamwari kwaari, achiti kwaari: Ishe, musazvitambudza; nokuti handina kufanira kuti mupinde pasi pedenga reimba yangu;
7 Wherefore I thought not my selfe worthy to come vnto thee: but say the word, and my seruant shalbe whole:
naizvozvo handina kutongofunga ini pachangu ndakafanira kuuya kwamuri; asi taurai neshoko, muranda wangu achaporeswa.
8 For I likewise am a man set vnder authoritie, and haue vnder mee souldiers, and I say vnto one, Goe, and he goeth: and to another, Come, and hee commeth: and to my seruant, Doe this, and he doeth it.
Nokuti iniwo ndiri munhu wakaiswa pasi pesimba, ndine mauto pasi pangu; ndinoti kune uyu: Enda, anoenda; uye kune umwe: Uya, anouya; nekumuranda wangu: Ita ichi, achiita.
9 When Iesus heard these things, he marueiled at him, and turned him, and said to the people, that followed him, I say vnto you, I haue not found so great faith, no not in Israel.
Jesu wakati anzwa zvinhu izvi, akashamisika naye, akatendeuka, akati kuchaunga chaimutevera: Ndinoti kwamuri: Handina kuwana rutendo rukuru rwakadai kunyange pakati paIsraeri.
10 And when they that were sent, turned backe to the house, they founde the seruant that was sicke, whole.
Zvino avo vakange vatumwa vodzokera kumba vakawana muranda airwara ava mutano.
11 And it came to passe the day after, that he went into a citie called Nain, and many of his disciples went with him, and a great multitude.
Zvino zvakaitika zuva raitevera, kuti wakaenda kuguta rainzi Naini; zvino vazhinji vevadzidzi vake nechaunga chikuru vakaenda naye.
12 Nowe when hee came neere to the gate of the citie, behold, there was a dead man caried out, who was the onely begotten sonne of his mother, which was a widowe, and much people of the citie was with her.
Zvino, wakati achiswedera pasuwo reguta, zvino tarira, mushakabvu achibudiswa kunze, mwanakomana umwe wega wamai vake, uye ivo vaiva chirikadzi; nechaunga chikuru cheguta chakange chinaye.
13 And when the Lord sawe her, he had compassion on her, and said vnto her, Weepe not.
Zvino Ishe wakati amuona, akamunzwira tsitsi, akati kwaari: Usachema.
14 And he went and touched the coffin (and they that bare him, stoode still) and he said, Yong man, I say vnto thee, Arise.
Zvino akaswedera akabata hwanyanza; zvino vatakuri vakamira; akati: Jaya, ndinoti kwauri: Muka!
15 And he that was dead, sate vp, and began to speake, and he deliuered him to his mother.
Mushakabvu akamuka ndokugara, akatanga kutaura; akamupa kuna mai vake.
16 Then there came a feare on them all, and they glorified God, saying, A great Prophet is risen among vs, and God hath visited his people.
Kutya ndokubata vese; vakarumbidza Mwari, vachiti: Muporofita mukuru wamuka pakati pedu; nekuti: Mwari washanyira vanhu vake.
17 And this rumour of him went foorth throughout all Iudea, and throughout all the region round about.
Zvino iri shoko maererano naye rikabudira muJudhiya rese nenharaunda yese yakapoteredza.
18 And the disciples of Iohn shewed him of all these things.
Vadzidzi vaJohwani ndokumupira zvezvinhu izvozvi zvese.
19 So Iohn called vnto him two certaine men of his disciples, and sent them to Iesus, saying, Art thou hee that should come, or shall we waite for another?
Johwani akadanira kwaari vamwe vaviri vevadzidzi vake, akavatuma kuna Jesu achiti: Imwi ndimwi anouya here, kana tichakataririra umwe?
20 And when the men were come vnto him, they said, Iohn Baptist hath sent vs vnto thee, saying, Art thou hee that should come, or shall we waite for another?
Zvino varume vakati vasvika kwaari, vakati: Johwani Mubhabhatidzi watituma kwamuri achiti: Imwi ndimwi anouya here, kana titaririre umwe?
21 And at that time, he cured many of their sickenesses, and plagues, and of euill spirites, and vnto many blinde men he gaue sight freely.
Zvino munguva iyoyo akaporesa vazhinji pazvifo neurwere, nepamweya yakaipa; nekumapofu mazhinji akapa kuona.
22 And Iesus answered, and saide vnto them, Goe your wayes and shewe Iohn, what things ye haue seene and heard: that the blinde see, the halt goe, the lepers are cleansed, the deafe heare, the dead are raised, and the poore receiue the Gospel.
Zvino Jesu achipindura akati kwavari: Endai munoudza Johwani zvamakaona nezvamakanzwa; zvekuti, mapofu anoonazve, vanokamhina vanofamba, vane maperembudzi vanonatsva, matsi dzinonzwa, vakafa vanomutswa, varombo vanoparidzirwa evhangeri.
23 And blessed is hee, that shall not be offended in me.
Uye wakaropafadzwa ani nani asingagumbuswi neni.
24 And when the messengers of Iohn were departed, hee began to speake vnto the people, of Iohn, What went ye out into the wildernes to see? A reede shaken with the winde?
Zvino vatumwa vaJohwani vakati vabva, wakatanga kutaura kuzvaunga pamusoro paJohwani, achiti: Makabudira kurenje kunoonei? Rutsanga rwunozununguswa nemhepo here?
25 But what went ye out to see? A man clothed in soft rayment? beholde, they which are gorgeously apparelled, and liue delicately, are in Kings courtes.
Asi makange mabuda kunoonei? Munhu wakapfeka nguvo dzakapfava here? Tarirai, vari munguvo dzinobwinya, vachirarama zvakanaka, vari mudzimba dzemadzimambo.
26 But what went ye foorth to see? A Prophet? yea, I say to you, and greater then a Prophet.
Asi makange mabuda kunoonei? Muporofita here? Hongu, ndinoti kwamuri: Kunyange anopfuura zvikuru muporofita.
27 This is he of whom it is written, Beholde, I sende my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
Uyu ndiye wakanyorwa pamusoro pake, zvichinzi: Tarira, ini ndinotuma mutumwa wangu pamberi pechiso chako, achagadzira nzira yako pamberi pako.
28 For I say vnto you, there is no greater Prophet then Iohn, among them that are begotten of women: neuerthelesse, hee that is the least in the kingdome of God, is greater then he.
Nokuti ndinoti kwamuri: Pakati pevakaberekwa nevakadzi, hakuna muporofita mukuru kuna Johwani Mubhabhatidzi; asi mudikisa muushe hwaMwari mukuru kwaari.
29 Then all the people that heard, and the Publicanes iustified God, being baptized with the baptisme of Iohn.
Zvino vanhu vese nevateresi vakati vachizvinzwa vakati Mwari wakarurama, zvavakange vabhabhatidzwa nerubhabhatidzo rwaJohwani.
30 But the Pharises and the expounders of the Law despised the counsell of God against themselues, and were not baptized of him.
Asi VaFarisi nenyanzvi dzemutemo vakaramba zano raMwari vachizvipikisa, vakasabhabhatidzwa naye.
31 And the Lord saide, Whereunto shall I liken the men of this generation? and what thing are they like vnto?
Asi Ishe akati: Zvino vanhu vezera iri ndichavafananidza nei? Vakafanana nei?
32 They are like vnto litle children sitting in the market place, and crying one to another, and saying, We haue piped vnto you, and ye haue not daunced: we haue mourned to you, and ye haue not wept.
Vakafanana nevana vadiki vagere pamisika vachidanidzirana vachiti: Takakuridzirai nyere asi hamuna kutamba, takakuririrai asi hamuna kuchema.
33 For Iohn Baptist came, neither eating bread, nor drinking wine: and ye say, He hath the deuil.
Nokuti Johwani Mubhabhatidzi akauya asingadyi chingwa kana kunwa waini, zvino moti: Ane dhimoni;
34 The Sonne of man is come, and eateth and drinketh: and ye say, Beholde, a man which is a glutton, and a drinker of wine, a friend of Publicanes and sinners:
Mwanakomana wemunhu wauya achidya, achinwa, zvino moti: Tarirai munhu wemakaro nemunwi wewaini, shamwari yevateresi nevatadzi.
35 But wisdome is iustified of all her children.
Asi uchenjeri hunonzi hwakarurama nevana vahwo vese.
36 And one of the Pharises desired him that hee would eate with him: and hee went into the Pharises house, and sate downe at table.
Zvino umwe weVaFarisi wakamukumbira kuti adye naye; akapinda mumba memuFarisi, akagara pakudya.
37 And beholde, a woman in the citie, which was a sinner, when she knewe that Iesus sate at table in the Pharises house, shee brought a boxe of oyntment.
Zvino tarira, mukadzi muguta iro, waiva mutadzi, wakati aziva kuti agere pakudya mumba memuFarisi, akauya nechinu chearibhasiteri chechizoro.
38 And shee stoode at his feete behinde him weeping, and began to wash his feete with teares, and did wipe them with the heares of her head, and kissed his feete, and anoynted them with the oyntment.
Akamira patsoka dzake mushure make achichema, akatanga kunyorovesa tsoka dzake nemisodzi, akapukuta nevhudzi remusoro wake, ndokutsvoda tsoka dzake ndokudzizodza nechizoro.
39 Nowe when the Pharise which bade him, saw it, he spake within himselfe, saying, If this man were a Prophet, hee woulde surely haue knowen who, and what maner of woman this is which toucheth him: for she is a sinner.
Zvino muFarisi wakange amudana wakati achizviona, akataura mukati make, achiti: Uyu dai aiva muporofita, angadai aiziva kuti ndiani, uye ndewakadini mukadzi anomubata, nokuti mutadzi.
40 And Iesus answered, and saide vnto him, Simon, I haue somewhat to say vnto thee. And he said, Master, say on.
Jesu ndokupindura akati kwaari: Simoni, ndine chekutaura kwauri. Iye ndokuti: Mudzidzisi, revai.
41 There was a certaine lender which had two detters: the one ought fiue hundreth pence, and the other fiftie:
Kwakange kune vakwereti vaviri kune umwe mukweretesi; umwe wakange ane chikwereti chamadhenario mazana mashanu, uye umwe makumi mashanu.
42 When they had nothing to pay, he forgaue them both: Which of them therefore, tell mee, will loue him most?
Vakati vasina chekuripisa, akavakanganwira vari vaviri. Naizvozvo ndeupi wavo, taura, achamuda kupfuura umwe?
43 Simon answered, and said, I suppose that he, to whom he forgaue most. And he said vnto him, Thou hast truely iudged.
Simoni akapindura akati: Ndinofunga ndouyo waakakanganwira kupfuura umwe. Akati kwaari: Watonga zvakarurama.
44 Then he turned to the woman, and said vnto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entred into thine house, and thou gauest mee no water to my feete: but she hath washed my feete with teares, and wiped them with the heares of her head.
Zvino akatendeukira kumukadzi, akati kuna Simoni: Unoona mukadzi uyu here? Ndapinda mumba mako, mvura yetsoka dzangu hauna kundipa; asi uyu wanyorevesa tsoka dzangu nemisodzi, akapusika nevhudzi remusoro wake.
45 Thou gauest me no kisse: but she, since the time I came in, hath not ceased to kisse my feete.
Hauna kunditsvoda, asi iye chinguri chandapinda, haana kumira kutsvoda tsoka dzangu.
46 Mine head with oyle thou didest not anoint: but she hath anoynted my feete with oyntment.
Nemafuta musoro wangu hauna kuuzodza; asi iye wazodza tsoka dzangu nechizoro.
47 Wherefore I say vnto thee, many sinnes are forgiuen her: for she loued much. To whom a litle is forgiuen, he doeth loue a litle.
Naizvozvo, ndinoti kwauri: Zvivi zvake zvizhinji zvakanganwirwa, nokuti wada zvikuru; asi anokanganwirwa zvishoma, anoda zvishoma.
48 And he saide vnto her, Thy sinnes are forgiuen thee.
Zvino akati kwaari: Zvivi zvako zvakanganwirwa.
49 And they that sate at table with him, began to say within themselues, Who is this that euen forgiueth sinnes?
Zvino avo vakange vagere pakudya naye vakatanga kureva mukati mavo, vachiti: Ndiani uyu anokanganwirawo zvivi?
50 And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saued thee: goe in peace.
Akati kumukadzi: Rutendo rwako rwakuponesa; enda nerugare.
