Luke 18
1 And He also spoke an allegory to them, that it is always necessary to pray and not to faint,
Lino Yesu walabambila beshikwiya bakendi mukoshano, pakuyanda kubeyisha kwambeti bapailenga lyonse kwakubula kubwelela kunyuma.
2 saying, “A certain judge was in a certain city—he is not fearing God, and he is not regarding man—
Walambeti, “Kwalikuba mubeteshi mumunshi umbi walikubula kutina Lesa nambi kulemeka muntu.
3 and a widow was in that city, and she was coming to him, saying, Do me justice on my opponent,
Kwalikuba mukalubingi mutukashi mumunshi wopeloyo walikaya kuli shikubeteka ne kumusengeti, ‘Munyamfweko pa mulandu ngonkute ku mulwani wakame.’
4 and he would not for a time, but after these things he said in himself, Even if I do not fear God, and do not regard man,
Masuba alafula mubeteshi kakanowa, nsombi panyuma pakendi walayeya mwineti, necikaba kwambeti nkantini Lesa nambi kulemeka muntu,
5 yet because this widow gives me trouble, I will do her justice, lest, continuously coming, she may bruise me.”
pakwinga mukalubingi uyu landemeshe kunjobekela, nindimubetekele mulandu wakendi, kwambeti ngaundemesha kwisa kuno!”
6 And the LORD said, “Hear what the unrighteous judge says:
Lino Mwami walambeti, “Nte mulanyumfu maswi amubeteshi wabula kululama usa.
7 and will God not execute justice to His chosen ones, who are crying to Him day and night—bearing long in regard to them?
Sena Lesa nteshi akabetekeshe mulandu wa balulama bakendi abo balamusengenga munshi ne mashiku? Sena nakalilwe kubanyamfwa?
8 I say to you that He will execute justice to them quickly; but the Son of Man having come, will He find faith on the earth?”
Ndamwambilingeti nakafwambane kubabetekela mulandu wabo. Sena pakwisa Mwana Muntu nakacane bantu bakute lushomo panshi pano?”
9 And He also spoke to some who have been trusting in themselves that they were righteous, and have been despising the rest, this allegory:
Lino Yesu walamba mukoshano umbi kulyabo bali kabayeyeti balulama kupita bonse nekunyansha banabo.
10 “Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee, and the other a tax collector;
Walambeti, “Kwalikuba bantu babili balaya akupaila ku Ng'anda ya Lesa. Umbi walikuba Mufalisi naumbi walikuba weshimisonko.
11 the Pharisee having stood by himself, thus prayed: God, I thank You that I am not as the rest of men, rapacious, unrighteous, adulterers, or even as this tax collector;
“Lino Mufalisi walanyamuka nekupaileti, ndamulumbunga obe Lesa, pakwinga ame nkandipo eti bantu nabambi bonse. Nabo nibantu babula kululama kayi ni bapombo. Kayi ndalumbu pakwinga kandipo eti uyu weshi kusonkesha musonko uyu.
12 I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all things—as many as I possess.
Ndalikanishinga kulya mankanda abili munsondo, kayi nkute kubenga calikumi pabintu byonse mbyonkute kucana.
13 And the tax collector, having stood far off, would not even lift up the eyes to the sky, but was striking on his breast, saying, God be propitious to me—the sinner!
“Nsombi weshikusonkesha musonko usa walemana patali, liya kulangapo kwilu. Nsombi walikalyuma pantiti nekwambeti, Lesa, kamunyumfwilako inkumbo ame ndemwipishi.”
14 I say to you, this one went down declared righteous, to his house, rather than that one: for everyone who is exalting himself will be humbled, and he who is humbling himself will be exalted.”
Yesu walabambileti, “Cancine ncine, weshimusonko walabwelela kucomwabo kali walulama pamenso a Lesa, mu Falisi neye liya. Pakwinga muntu uliyense weshi kulisumpula nakacepeshewe, nomba muntu weshi kulicepesha nakasumpulwe.”
15 And they were also bringing the babies near, that He may touch them, and the disciples having seen, rebuked them,
Bantu nabambi balaleta bana bang'ana kuli Yesu kwambeti abike makasa akendi pabana nekubaleleka. Beshikwiya bakendi mpobalaboneco balabakalalila bantu abo balaleta bana.
16 and Jesus having called them near, said, “Permit the little children to come to Me, and do not forbid them, for of such is the Kingdom of God;
Nsombi Yesu walakuwa bana nekwambeti. “Kamulekani bana bang'ana bese kuli njame, mutabakanishanga, pakwinga Bwami bwa Lesa ni bwa bantu balyeti bana aba.
17 truly I say to you, whoever may not receive the Kingdom of God as a little child, may not enter into it.”
Ndamwambilinga cakubingeti uyo labulunga kutambula Bwami Bwa Lesa eti mwana, cakubinga nteshi akengilemo.”
18 And a certain ruler questioned Him, saying, “Good Teacher, what having done—will I inherit continuous life?” (aiōnios g166)
Mukulene wa Bayuda naumbi walepusha Yesu eti. “Bashikwiyisha baina, nomba ndelelela kwinseconi kwambeti nkatambule buyumi butapu?” (aiōnios g166)
19 And Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one [is] good, except one—God;
Yesu walepusheti, “Nomba nicani ncolambilico kwambeti ndaina? Kuliya muntu waina, nsombi Lesa enka.
20 you have known the commands: You may not commit adultery, You may not murder, You may not steal, You may not bear false witness, Honor your father and your mother.”
Milawo uyinshi yeshi kwambeti, ‘Utensa bulale, utashina, kotaiba, utapa bukamboni bwabwepeshi, lemeka baiso ne banyoko.’”
21 And he said, “All these I kept from my youth”;
Muntu uyo walakumbuleti, “Iyi Milawo yonse nkute kwikonka kufuma kubutwanike bwakame.”
22 and having heard these things, Jesus said to him, “Yet one thing to you is lacking: all things—as many as you have—sell, and distribute to the poor, and you will have treasure in Heaven, and come, follow Me”;
Yesu mpwalanyumfweco, walamwambileti, “Kulashalowa cintu cimo ncowelela kwinsa. Koya ulishe byonse mbyokute, mali upe bapenga, lino nukabe nebuboni kwilu. Wenseco, wise unkonkele.”
23 and he, having heard these things, became very sorrowful, for he was exceedingly rich.
Nsombi muntu usa mpwalanyumfweco, walongumana pakwinga walikuba ne mubile bwingi.
24 And Jesus having seen him become very sorrowful, said, “How hardly will those having riches enter into the Kingdom of God!
Yesu mpwalabona, kungumana kwa muntu usa walambeti, “Cayuma kwambeti bantu babile bakengile mu Bwami bwa Lesa.
25 For it is easier for a camel to enter through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God.”
Capuba kwambeti ngamila ingile mukamulyango ka nyeleti kupita muntu mubile kwingila mu Bwami bwa Lesa.”
26 And those who heard, said, “And who is able to be saved?”
Bantu balanyumfwa makani aya balepusheti, “Nomba niyani eti akapuluke?”
27 And He said, “The things impossible with men are possible with God.”
Yesu walakumbuleti, “Ibi bintu bitakonsheke nebantu, bikute kukonsheka ne Lesa.”
28 And Peter said, “Behold, we left all, and followed You”;
Lino Petulo walambeti, “Kamubona! Afwe twalashiya manda etu nekukonkela njamwe.”
29 and He said to them, “Truly I say to you that there is not one who left house, or parents, or brothers, or wife, or children, for the sake of the Kingdom of God,
Yesu walakumbuleti, “Ndamwambilinga cakubinga paliya muntu walashiya ng'anda, nambi mukashendi nambi bamakwabo nambi bashali bakendi nambi bana bakendi pacebo ca Bwami bwa Lesa,
31 And having taken the Twelve aside, He said to them, “Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things will be accomplished that have been written through the prophets to the Son of Man,
Yesu walamanta beshikwiya bakendi bali likumi ne babili kuya palubasu nekubambileti, “Tulenga ku Yelusalemu uko byonse byalalemba bashinshimi pa Mwana Muntu nkoti bikenshikile.
32 for He will be delivered up to the nations, and will be mocked, and insulted, and spit on,
Pakwinga Mwana Muntu nakatwalwe mumakasa abantu bakunsa abo beshi bakamuwele, kumutukana, nekumusankila mata.
33 and having scourged they will put Him to death, and on the third day He will rise again.”
Nibakamukwipe nekumushina, nsombi pabusuba bwabutatu nakapundushiwe kubafu.”
34 And they understood none of these things, and this saying was hid from them, and they were not knowing the things said.
Beshikwiya bakendi baliya kunyumfwishisha pamakani ayo. Maswi aya baliya kwanyumfwishisha pakwinga alikuba asolama kuli endibo, neco baliya kwinshiba ncali kwamba.
35 And it came to pass, in His coming near to Jericho, a certain blind man was sitting beside the way begging,
Yesu mpwalashika pepi ne Yeliko walacana mpofu kali wekala mumbali mwa nshila, kasengelela.
36 and having heard a multitude going by, he was inquiring what this may be,
Lino mpofu uyo mpwalanyumfwa bantu bangi kabapita munshileyo, walepusheti, “Nicani cilenshikinga?”
37 and they brought him word that Jesus the Nazarene passes by,
Bantu balamwambileti, “Ni Yesu wa ku Nasaleti lapitinga.”
38 and he cried out, saying, “Jesus, Son of David, deal kindly with me”;
Lino walolobesheti, “Yesu mwana wa Dafeti konyumfwilako inkumbo!”
39 and those going before were rebuking him, that he might be silent, but he was crying out much more, “Son of David, deal kindly with me!”
Lino bantu balikuba kutangu balamukalilila nekumwambileti mwena. Nsombi nendi walapitilisha kolobesheti, “Mwanendi Dafeti, konyumfwilako inkumbo!”
40 And Jesus having stood, commanded him to be brought to Him, and he having come near, He questioned him,
Neye Yesu walemana ne kwambila bantu eti bamulete kuli endiye. Mpwalashika pepi Yesu walamwipusheti,
41 saying, “What do you will I will do to you?” And he said, “Lord, that I may receive sight.”
nicani ncolandangeti nkwinshile? Neye walamukumbuleti, “Mwami, ndayandanga kwambeti ntatike kubona kayi.”
42 And Jesus said to him, “Receive your sight; your faith has saved you”;
Lino Yesu walamwambileti, “Tatika kubona, pakwinga ulanshomo, lushomo lwakobe lulakushiliki.”
43 and instantly he received sight, and was following Him, glorifying God; and all the people, having seen, gave praise to God.
Pacindi copeleco walatatika kubona. Lino walakonkela Yesu nkaya kulumbaisha Lesa. Bantu bonse mpobalabona calenshika naboyo balalalumbaisha Lesa.
