Luke 5
1 And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed on him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret,
Otu oge, ka Jisọs guzo nʼakụkụ ọdọ mmiri Genesaret. Igwe mmadụ gbara ya gburugburu ka ha nụrụ okwu Chineke.
2 And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets.
Ọ hụrụ nʼọnụ mmiri ahụ, ụgbọ mmiri abụọ nke ndị ọkụ azụ nwe ha hapụrụ gaa ịsa ụgbụ ha ji egbu azụ.
3 And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon’s, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship.
Ọ banyere nʼime otu ụgbọ mmiri ndị ahụ, nke bụ nke Saimọn, ọ rịọrọ ya ka ọ kwọrọ ya banyetụ ntakịrị nʼime mmiri. Ọ nọdụrụ ala nʼime ya bido na-ezi igwe mmadụ ihe.
4 Now when he had left speaking, he said to Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.
Mgbe o kwusiri okwu, ọ gwara Saimọn sị, “Banyetụkwuo nʼime mmiri, tụnye ụgbụ gị ka i gbute azụ.”
5 And Simon answering said to him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at your word I will let down the net.
Saimọn zara sị, “Nna anyị ukwuu, anyị rụsịrị ọrụ ike abalị niile na-egbutaghị ihe ọbụla, ma otu i sịrị kwuo, aga m awụnye ụgbụ azụ niile.”
6 And when they had this done, they enclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net broke.
Mgbe ha mere nke a, ha gbutere ọtụtụ azụ nke mere na ụgbụ azụ ha malitere ịdọkasị.
7 And they beckoned to their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink.
Ha kpọrọ ndị ọkụ azụ ibe ha nọ nʼụgbọ mmiri ọzọ ka ha bịa nyere ha aka. Ha bịara kpojuo azụ nʼụgbọ mmiri abụọ ahụ nke malitere imikpu.
8 When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord.
Ma mgbe Saimọn Pita hụrụ nke a, ọ dara nʼukwu Jisọs sị, “Si nʼebe m nọ pụọ, Onyenwe m, nʼihi na abụ m onye mmehie.”
9 For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken:
Nʼihi na o juru ya na ndị ya na ha so anya ịhụ ọtụtụ azụ ndị a ha gbutere.
10 And so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Fear not; from now on you shall catch men.
Ọ bụladị Jemis na Jọn ụmụ Zebedi, ndị ha na Saimọn na-arụkọ ọrụ, ka ihe a jukwara anya. Mgbe ahụ Jisọs gwara Saimọn sị, “Atụla egwu, nʼihi na site ugbu a gaa nʼihu, ị ga na-akụta mmadụ.”
11 And when they had brought their ships to land, they forsook all, and followed him.
Mgbe ha kwọpụtara ụgbọ mmiri ha nʼelu ala, ha hapụrụ ihe niile soro ya.
12 And it came to pass, when he was in a certain city, behold a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus fell on his face, and sought him, saying, Lord, if you will, you can make me clean.
Mgbe Jisọs nọ nʼotu obodo, otu nwoke onye ekpenta juru ahụ, bịara daa, kpudo ihu ya nʼala mgbe ọ hụrụ ya, rịọ ya sị, “Onyenwe m, ọ bụrụ na ị chọrọ, ị pụrụ ime ka m dị ọcha.”
13 And he put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will: be you clean. And immediately the leprosy departed from him.
Jisọs setịpụrụ aka ya metụ ya sị, “Achọrọ m, bụrụ onye dị ọcha!” Ngwangwa ekpenta ahụ hapụrụ ya.
14 And he charged him to tell no man: but go, and show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing, according as Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.
O nyere ya iwu, “A gwakwala onye ọbụla, kama gaa gosi onye nchụaja onwe gị, chụọkwa aja dị ka Mosis nyere nʼiwu maka ime ka ị dị ọcha, ka ọ bụrụ ihe ama nye ha.”
15 But so much the more went there a fame abroad of him: and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities.
Ma akụkọ banyere ya gbasara karịa, nke mere na igwe mmadụ bịara ịnụrụ ihe ọ na-ekwu, na ka a gwọọkwa ha nrịa nrịa.
16 And he withdrew himself into the wilderness, and prayed.
Ma site nʼoge ruo nʼoge, Jisọs na-ewezuga onwe ya gaa nʼebe ọ ga-anọ naanị ya ikpe ekpere.
17 And it came to pass on a certain day, as he was teaching, that there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, which were come out of every town of Galilee, and Judaea, and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord was present to heal them.
Otu ụbọchị, mgbe ọ nọ na-ezi ndị mmadụ ihe, ndị Farisii na ndị ozizi iwu (sitere nʼobodo nta niile dị na Galili na Judịa na Jerusalem bịa nọdụkwa ebe) ahụ. Ike Chineke dịnyekwaara ya ịgwọ ndị ọrịa.
18 And, behold, men brought in a bed a man which was taken with a palsy: and they sought means to bring him in, and to lay him before him.
Nʼoge ahụ ndị ikom ụfọdụ bu otu nwoke akụkụ ahụ ya kpọnwụrụ akpọnwụ nʼihe ndina ya, bịara gbalịa isite nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ ahụ bubata ya tọgbọ ya nʼụkwụ ya.
19 And when they could not find by what way they might bring him in because of the multitude, they went on the housetop, and let him down through the tiling with his couch into the middle before Jesus.
Mgbe ha na-enweghị ike ime nke a nʼihi igwe mmadụ, ha rigooro nʼelu ụlọ, site nʼoghere wetuo nwoke ahụ nʼute ya nʼetiti igwe mmadụ nʼihu Jisọs.
20 And when he saw their faith, he said to him, Man, your sins are forgiven you.
Mgbe Jisọs hụrụ okwukwe ha, ọ sịrị, “Enyi m, a gbagharala gị mmehie gị.”
21 And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this which speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?
Ndị Farisii na ndị ozizi iwu malitere iche nʼime obi ha sị, “Onye bụ onye a na-ekwulu Chineke? Onye pụrụ ịgbaghara mmadụ mmehie, ma ọ bụghị naanị Chineke?”
22 But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answering said to them, What reason you in your hearts?
Mgbe Jisọs matara ihe ha na-ajụ, ọ zara ha sị, “Gịnị mere unu ji na-eche ihe ndị a nʼobi unu?
23 Whether is easier, to say, Your sins be forgiven you; or to say, Rise up and walk?
Olee nke ka mfe ikwu: Ọ bụ a gbagharala gị mmehie gị niile, ka ọ bụ ị sị, Bilie jee ije?
24 But that you may know that the Son of man has power on earth to forgive sins, (he said to the sick of the palsy, ) I say to you, Arise, and take up your couch, and go into your house.
Ma ka unu mata na Nwa nke Mmadụ nwere ikike nʼụwa ịgbaghara mmehie.” Ọ sịrị onye ahụ akụkụ ahụ ya kpọnwụrụ akpọnwụ, “Asị m gị, bilie, chịrị ute gị laa nʼụlọ gị!”
25 And immediately he rose up before them, and took up that where on he lay, and departed to his own house, glorifying God.
Ngwangwa, o biliri ọtọ nʼihu mmadụ niile, chịrị ihe ndina ya bido na-eto Chineke na-ala nʼụlọ ya.
26 And they were all amazed, and they glorified God, and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things to day.
Ihe ndị a juru onye ọbụla anya, ha tokwara Chineke. Oke egwu jupụtakwara ha nʼahụ, ha sịrị, “Anyị ahụla ihe ebube taa.”
27 And after these things he went forth, and saw a publican, named Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he said to him, Follow me.
Mgbe nke a gasịrị, ọ pụrụ hụ otu onye ọna ụtụ aha ya bụ Livayị, ka ọ nọdụrụ ala nʼụlọ ịnakọta ụtụ ya. Ọ sịrị ya, “Soro m.”
28 And he left all, rose up, and followed him.
Ngwangwa, o biliri, hapụ ihe niile soro ya.
29 And Levi made him a great feast in his own house: and there was a great company of publicans and of others that sat down with them.
Emesịa, Livayị kwadooro Jisọs oke oriri nʼụlọ ya, ọtụtụ igwe ndị ọna ụtụ na ndị ọzọ soo ha nʼoriri ahụ.
30 But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do you eat and drink with publicans and sinners?
Ma ndị Farisii na ndị ozizi iwu tamuru ntamu na-ajụ ndị na-eso ụzọ ya sị, “Gịnị mere unu ji soro ndị ọna ụtụ na ndị mmehie na-erikọ nri na-aṅụkọkwa ihe ọṅụṅụ?”
31 And Jesus answering said to them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick.
Jisọs zara sị, “Mkpa dibịa adịghị akpa ndị ahụ dị ike, kama ọ bụ ndị ahụ na-esighị ike.
32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
Abịaghị m ịkpọ ndị ezi omume, kama abịara m ịkpọ ndị mmehie ka ha chegharịa.”
33 And they said to him, Why do the disciples of John fast often, and make prayers, and likewise the disciples of the Pharisees; but your eat and drink?
Ha sịrị, “Ndị na-eso ụzọ Jọn na ndị na-eso ụzọ ndị Farisii na-ebu ọnụ, na-ekpe ekpere oge niile, ma ndị na-eso ụzọ gị na-eri, na-aṅụkwa.”
34 And he said to them, Can you make the children of the bridal chamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them?
Jisọs sịrị ha, “Ndị a kpọrọ oriri nʼọlụlụ di na nwunye, ha ga-ebu ọnụ mgbe ha na onye na-alụ nwunye ọhụrụ nọ?
35 But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.
Ma oge na-abịa mgbe a ga-ewepụ onye na-alụ nwunye nʼetiti ha, mgbe ahụ ka ha ga-ebu ọnụ.”
36 And he spoke also a parable to them; No man puts a piece of a new garment on an old; if otherwise, then both the new makes a rent, and the piece that was taken out of the new agrees not with the old.
Ọ tụụrụ ha ilu a, “O nweghị onye na-adọkara akwa ọhụrụ were ya kwachie akwa ochie. Ọ bụrụ na e mee nke a, ọ pụtara na a dọwaala akwa ọhụrụ ahụ nʼihi na nke ahụ eji kwachie ya agaghị adaba.
37 And no man puts new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish.
Nʼụzọ dị otu a kwa, mmadụ adịghị agbanye mmanya ọhụrụ dị ike nʼime karama akpụkpọ ochie. Nʼihi na ike si na mmanya ọhụrụ ahụ ga-eme ka karama ahụ gbawaa. Mmanya ahụ ga-awụfukwa, karama ahụ a laa nʼiyi.
38 But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved.
Ma ọ dị mma ịgbanye mmanya ọhụrụ nʼime karama akpụkpọ ọhụrụ.
39 No man also having drunk old wine straightway desires new: for he says, The old is better.
O nweghị onye ṅụsịrị mmanya ochie ga-achọ ịṅụ mmanya ọhụrụ, nʼihi na ọ ga-asị, ‘Nke ochie ahụ ka mma.’”
