< Luke 8 >
1 And it came to pass thereafter, that He was going through every city and village, preaching and proclaiming good news of the Kingdom of God, and the Twelve [are] with Him,
Zitatha izi, Yesu anayendayenda kuchoka mzinda wina kupita wina ndiponso mudzi wina kupita wina, akulalikira Uthenga Wabwino wa ufumu wa Mulungu. Ophunzira ake khumi ndi awiri aja anali naye,
2 and certain women who were healed of evil spirits and sicknesses, Mary who is called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone forth,
komanso akazi ena amene anachiritsidwa ku mizimu yoyipa ndi matenda: Mariya, wotchedwa Magadalena, amene mwa iye munatuluka ziwanda zisanu ndi ziwiri;
3 and Joanna wife of Chuza, steward of Herod, and Susanna, and many others, who were ministering to Him from their substance.
Yohana mkazi wa Kuza, woyangʼanira mʼnyumba ya Herode; Suzana; ndi ena ambiri analinso. Akazi awa ankawathandiza ndi chuma chawo.
4 And a great multitude having gathered, and those who from city and city were coming to Him, He spoke by an allegory:
Anthu ambiri ankasonkhana, ndipo pamene anthu ankabwera kwa Yesu kuchokera ku midzi, Iye anawawuza fanizo ili,
5 “The sower went forth to sow his seed, and in his sowing some indeed fell beside the way, and it was trodden down, and the birds of the sky devoured it.
“Mlimi anapita kukafesa mbewu zake. Akufesa mbewuzo, zina zinagwa mʼmbali mwa njira; zinapondedwa, ndipo mbalame zamlengalenga zinadya.
6 And other fell on the rock, and having sprung up, it withered, through having no moisture.
Zina zinagwa pa thanthwe, ndipo pamene zinamera, zinafota chifukwa panalibe chinyezi.
7 And other fell amidst the thorns, and the thorns having sprung up with it, choked it.
Mbewu zina zinagwera pakati pa minga, zinakulira pamodzi ndi mingazo ndipo zinalepheretsa mmerawo kukula.
8 And other fell on the good ground, and having sprung up, it made fruit a hundredfold.” Saying these things, He was calling, “He having ears to hear—let him hear.”
Mbewu zina zinagwera pa nthaka yabwino. Zinamera ndipo zinabala mowirikiza 100 kuposa zimene zinafesedwa zija.” Atanena izi, anafuwula kuti, “Amene ali ndi makutu, amve.”
9 And His disciples were questioning Him, saying, “What may this allegory be?”
Ophunzira ake anamufunsa tanthauzo lake la fanizolo.
10 And He said, “To you it has been given to know the secrets of the Kingdom of God, but to the rest in allegories, that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.
Iye anati, “Kudziwa zinsinsi za ufumu wa Mulungu kwapatsidwa kwa inu, koma kwa ena ndimawayankhula mʼmafanizo kuti, “ngakhale akuona, asapenye; ngakhale akumva, asazindikire.”
11 And this is the allegory: the seed is the word of God,
“Tanthauzo la fanizoli ndi ili: Mbewu ndi mawu a Mulungu.
12 and those beside the way are those hearing, then comes the Devil, and takes up the word from their heart, lest having believed, they may be saved.
Mbewu za mʼmbali mwa njira ndi anthu amene amamva mawu, ndipo kenaka mdierekezi amabwera ndi kuchotsa mawuwo mʼmitima mwawo kuti asakhulupirire ndi kupulumutsidwa.
13 And those on the rock: they who, when they may hear, receive the word with joy, and these have no root, who for a time believe, and in time of temptation fall away.
Mbewu za pa thanthwe ndi anthu amene amalandira mawu mwachimwemwe pamene akumva, koma mawuwo sazika mizu. Iwo amakhulupirira kwa kanthawi, koma pa nthawi ya mayesero, amagwa.
14 And that which fell to the thorns: these are they who have heard, and going forth, through anxieties, and riches, and pleasures of life, are choked, and do not bear to completion.
Mbewu zimene zinagwa pakati pa minga zikuyimira anthu amene amamva mawu, koma akamayenda mʼnjira zawo amatsamwitsidwa ndi zodandaulitsa za moyo uno, chuma ndi zosangalatsa, ndipo iwo samakhwima.
15 And that in the good ground: these are they who in an upright and good heart, having heard the word, retain [it], and bear fruit in continuance.
Koma mbewu za pa nthaka yabwino zikuyimira anthu amene ali ndi mtima woona ndi wabwino, amene amamva mawu nawasunga, ndipo amalimbikira mpaka amabala zipatso.
16 And no one having lighted a lamp covers it with a vessel, or puts [it] under a bed; but he puts [it] on a lampstand, that those coming in may see the light,
“Palibe amayatsa nyale ndi kuyibisa mu mtsuko kapena kuyika pansi pa bedi. Koma mʼmalo mwake, amayika pa choyikapo chake, kuti anthu olowamo aone kuwala.
17 for nothing is secret, that will not become visible, nor hid, that will not be known and become visible.
Pakuti palibe kanthu kobisika kamene sikadzawululika, ndipo palibe kanthu kophimbika kamene sikadzadziwika kapena kuonetsedwa poyera.
18 See, therefore, how you hear, for whoever may have, there will be given to him, and whoever may not have, also what he seems to have will be taken from him.”
Choncho ganizirani mozama. Iye amene ali nazo adzapatsidwa zambiri, iye amene alibe, ngakhale chimene akuganiza kuti ali nacho adzalandidwa.”
19 And there came to Him His mother and brothers, and they were not able to get to Him because of the multitude,
Tsopano amayi ndi abale a Yesu anabwera kudzamuona Iye, koma analephera kuti afike pafupi ndi Iye chifukwa cha gulu la anthu.
20 and it was told Him, saying, “Your mother and Your brothers stand outside, wishing to see You”;
Wina anamuwuza Iye kuti, “Amayi ndi abale anu ayima kunja, akufuna kukuonani.”
21 and He answering said to them, “My mother and My brothers! They are those who are hearing the word of God, and doing.”
Yesu anayankha kuti, “Amayi ndi abale anga ndi amene amamva mawu a Mulungu ndi kumachita zimene mawuwo akunena.”
22 And it came to pass, on one of the days, that He Himself went into a boat with His disciples, and He said to them, “We may go over to the other side of the lake”; and they set forth,
Tsiku lina Yesu anati kwa ophunzira ake, “Tiyeni tiwolokere tsidya lina la nyanja.” Ndipo analowa mʼbwato nanyamuka.
23 and as they are sailing He fell deeply asleep, and there came down a storm of wind to the lake, and they were filling, and were in peril.
Akuwoloka, Iye anagona tulo. Namondwe wamkulu anayamba pa nyanja, ndipo bwatolo linayamba kudzaza ndi madzi ndipo anali pa chiopsezo chachikulu.
24 And having come near, they awoke Him, saying, “Master, Master, we perish!” And He, having arisen, rebuked the wind and the raging of the water, and they ceased, and there came a calm,
Ophunzira anapita ndi kukamudzutsa Iye, nati, “Ambuye, Ambuye, ife tikumira!” Anadzuka ndipo anadzudzula mphepo ndi madzi owindukawo. Namondwe anasiya, ndipo panali bata.
25 and He said to them, “Where is your faith?” And they being afraid wondered, saying to one another, “Who, then, is this, that He even commands the winds and the water, and they obey Him?”
Iye anafunsa ophunzira ake kuti, “Chikhulupiriro chanu chili kuti?” Koma pogwidwa ndi mantha ndi kudabwa anafunsana wina ndi mnzake kuti, “Uyu ndi ndani? Iye alamulira ngakhale mphepo ndi madzi, ndipo zimumvera Iye.”
26 And they sailed down to the region of the Gadarenes that is opposite Galilee,
Iwo anawolokera ku chigawo cha Gerasa chimene chili tsidya lina la nyanja kuchokera ku Galileya.
27 and He having gone forth on the land, there met Him a certain man, out of the city, who had demons for a long time, and was not clothed with a garment, and was not abiding in a house, but in the tombs,
Yesu ataponda pa mtunda, anakumana ndi munthu wogwidwa ndi ziwanda wochokera mu mzindawo. Kwa nthawi yayitali munthuyu sanavale zovala kapena kukhala mʼnyumba, koma amakhala ku manda.
28 and having seen Jesus, and having cried out, he fell before Him, and with a loud voice, said, “What [regards] me and You, Jesus, Son of God Most High? I implore You, may You not afflict me!”
Iye ataona Yesu, anakuwa nagwa pa mapazi ake akufuwula kwambiri kuti, “Mukufuna chiyani ndi ine, Yesu Mwana wa Mulungu Wammwambamwamba? Ndikupemphani Inu, musandizunze ine!”
29 For He commanded the unclean spirit to come forth from the man, for many times it had caught him, and he was being bound with chains and shackles—guarded, and breaking apart the bonds he was driven by the demons into the deserts.
Pakuti Yesu analamula mzimu woyipawo kuti utuluke mwa munthuyo. Kawirikawiri umamugwira iye, ndipo ngakhale anali womangidwa ndi unyolo dzanja ndi mwendo ndi kuti ankamuyangʼanira, koma amadula maunyolo akewo ndipo ziwanda zimamutengera kumalo a yekha.
30 And Jesus questioned him, saying, “What is your name?” And he said, “Legion,” because many demons were entered into him,
Yesu anamufunsa kuti, “Dzina lako ndani?” Iye anayankha kuti, “Legiyo,” chifukwa ziwanda zambiri zinalowa mwa iye.
31 and he was calling on Him that He may not command them to go away into the abyss, (Abyssos )
Ndipo ziwandazo zimamupempha mobwerezabwereza kuti asazitumize ku dzenje la mdima. (Abyssos )
32 and there was there a herd of many pigs feeding on the mountain, and they were calling on Him that He might permit them to enter into these, and He permitted them,
Gulu lalikulu la nkhumba limadya pamenepo mʼmbali mwa phiri. Ziwandazo zinamupempha Yesu kuti azilole kuti zikalowe mu nkhumbazo ndipo Iye anazilola.
33 and the demons having gone forth from the man, entered into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep into the lake, and were drowned.
Ziwanda zija zitatuluka mwa munthuyo, zinakalowa mwa nkhumbazo, ndipo gulu lonselo linathamangira ku mtsetse ndi kukalowa mʼnyanja ndi kumira.
34 And those feeding [them], having seen what was come to pass, fled, and having gone, told [it] to the city, and to the fields;
Oweta nkhumbazo ataona zimene zinachitikazo, anathamanga ndi kukanena izi mu mzinda ndi ku madera a ku midzi.
35 and they came forth to see what was come to pass, and they came to Jesus, and found the man sitting, out of whom the demons had gone forth, clothed, and right-minded, at the feet of Jesus, and they were afraid;
Ndipo anthu anapita kukaona zimene zinachitika. Atafika kwa Yesu, anapeza munthu amene anatulutsidwa ziwanda uja atakhala pa mapazi a Yesu, atavala ndipo ali ndi nzeru zake; ndipo iwo anachita mantha.
36 and those also having seen [it], told them how the demoniac was saved.
Amene anaona izi anawuza anthu mmene munthu wogwidwa ndi ziwandayo anachiritsidwira.
37 And the whole multitude of the region of the Gadarenes asked Him to go away from them, because they were pressed with great fear, and He having entered into the boat, turned back.
Kenaka anthu onse a ku chigawo cha Gerasa anamupempha Yesu kuti achoke kwa iwo, chifukwa anadzazidwa ndi mantha. Choncho Iye analowa mʼbwato nachoka.
38 And the man from whom the demons had gone forth was imploring of Him to be with Him, and Jesus sent him away, saying,
Munthu amene anatulutsidwa ziwanda uja, anapempha Yesu kuti apite nawo, koma Yesu anamubweza nati,
39 “Return to your house, and tell how God did great things to you”; and he went away through all the city proclaiming how Jesus did great things to him.
“Bwerera kwanu kafotokoze zimene Mulungu wakuchitira.” Ndipo munthuyo anachoka ndi kukanena ku mzinda wonsewo zimene Yesu anamuchitira iye.
40 And it came to pass, in the turning back of Jesus, the multitude received Him, for they were all looking for Him,
Yesu atabwerera, gulu lalikulu la anthu linamulandira, chifukwa onse ankamuyembekezera.
41 and behold, there came a man whose name [is] Jairus, and he was a chief of the synagogue, and having fallen at the feet of Jesus, was calling on Him to come to his house,
Nthawi yomweyo munthu wotchedwa Yairo, woweruza wa mu sunagoge, anabwera ndi kugwa pa mapazi a Yesu, namupempha Iye kuti apite ku nyumba kwake,
42 because he had an only daughter about twelve years [old], and she was dying. And in His going away, the multitudes were thronging Him,
chifukwa mwana wake yekhayo wamkazi, kamtsikana ka zaka khumi ndi ziwiri, kanali pafupi kufa. Pamene Yesu ankapita gulu la anthu linkamupanikiza.
43 and a woman, being with a flow of blood for twelve years, who, having spent all her living on physicians, was not able to be healed by any,
Ndipo pomwepo panali mayi wina amene ankataya magazi kwa zaka khumi ndi ziwiri, koma panalibe wina akanamuchiritsa.
44 having come near behind, touched the fringe of His garment, and immediately the flow of her blood stood still.
Iye anafika kumbuyo kwake ndi kukhudza mothera mwa chovala chake, ndipo nthawi yomweyo magazi ake analeka kutuluka.
45 And Jesus said, “Who [is] it that touched Me?” And all denying, Peter and those with him said, “Master, the multitudes press You, and throng [You], and You say, Who [is] it that touched Me?”
Yesu anafunsa kuti, “Wandikhudza ndani?” Onse atakana, Petro anati, “Anthu akukupanikizani ndi kukukankhani.”
46 And Jesus said, “Someone touched Me, for I knew power having gone forth from Me.”
Koma Yesu anati, “Wina wandikhudza; ndikudziwa chifukwa mphamvu yachoka mwa Ine.”
47 And the woman, having seen that she was not hid, trembling, came, and having fallen before Him, for what cause she touched Him declared to Him before all the people, and how she was healed instantly;
Ndipo mayiyo podziwa kuti sanathe kuchoka wosadziwika, anabwera akunjenjemera ndipo anagwa pa mapazi a Yesu. Pamaso pa anthu onse, anafotokoza chifukwa chimene anamukhudzira Iye ndi mmene iye anachiritsidwira nthawi yomweyo.
48 and He said to her, “Take courage, daughter, your faith has saved you, be going on to peace.”
Kenaka anati kwa iye, “Mwana wamkazi, chikhulupiriro chako chakuchiritsa. Pita mu mtendere.”
49 While He is yet speaking, there comes a certain one from the chief of the synagogue’s [house], saying to him, “Your daughter has died, do not harass the Teacher”;
Pamene Yesu ankayankhulabe, munthu wina anabwera kuchokera ku nyumba ya Yairo, woweruza wa ku sunagoge uja. Iye anati, “Mwana wanu wa mkazi wamwalira, musawavutitsenso Aphunzitsiwa.”
50 and Jesus having heard, answered him, saying, “Do not be afraid, only believe, and she will be saved.”
Atamva zimenezi, Yesu anati kwa Yairo, “Usachite mantha, ingokhulupirira basi ndipo adzachiritsidwa.”
51 And having come into the house, He permitted no one to go in, except Peter, and James, and John, and the father of the child, and the mother;
Iye atafika ku nyumba ya Yairo, sanalole wina aliyense kulowa kupatula Petro, Yohane, ndi Yakobo ndi abambo ndi amayi a mwanayo.
52 and they were all weeping, and beating themselves for her, and He said, “Do not weep, she did not die, but sleeps”;
Pa nthawiyi nʼkuti anthu onse akubuma ndi kumulirira iye. Yesu anati, “Lekani kulira, sanafe koma wagona tulo.”
53 and they were deriding Him, knowing that she died;
Iwo anamuseka podziwa kuti anali atamwalira.
54 and He having put all forth outside, and having taken hold of her hand, called, saying, “Child, arise”;
Koma Iye anamugwira dzanja lake ndipo anati, “Mwana wanga, dzuka!”
55 and her spirit came back, and she arose immediately, and He directed that there be given to her to eat;
Mzimu wake unabwerera, ndipo nthawi yomweyo anayimirira. Kenaka Yesu anawawuza kuti amupatse chakudya.
56 and her parents were amazed, but He charged them to say to no one what had come to pass.
Makolo ake anadabwa, koma Iye anawalamulira kuti asawuze wina aliyense zimene zinachitikazo.
