Luke 7
1 After he had finished speaking in the hearing of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
Bu kamana kamba batu mambu maba yandi, Yesu wuyenda ku Kafalinawumi.
2 A certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick and at the point of death.
Pfumu yimosi yi masodi wuba ayi mvikꞌandi wuba mu kimbevo, wuba nduka mu fua. Pfumu beni wuba zolanga ngolo mvika beni.
3 When he heard about Jesus, he sent to him Jewish elders, asking him to come and save his servant.
Bu kawa tsangu yi Yesu, buna pfumu beni yi masodi wumfidisila bakulutu ba Bayuda muingi banleba kiza belusa mvikꞌandi.
4 When they came to Jesus, they pleaded with him earnestly, saying, "He is worthy for you to do this for him,
Bu batula vaba Yesu mbadi banleba: —Niandi fueni wumvangila buawu.
5 for he loves our nation, and he built our synagogue for us."
Bila wunzolanga tsi etu ayi niandi veka wututungila nzo yi lukutukunu.
6 Jesus went with them. When he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying to him, "Lord, do not trouble yourself, for I am not worthy for you to come under my roof.
Yesu wuyenda yawu. Buna weka nduka tula ku nzo, pfumu yi masodiwumfidisila bakundi bandi mu kunkamba: —A pfumu, bika kuaku kiyamisa bila ndisi wufuana ko muingi ngeyo wukota mu nzoꞌama.
7 Therefore I did not even think myself worthy to come to you; but say the word, and my servant will be healed.
Diawu ndisi kuiza kudenginina ko minu veka vayi tuba kaka diambu dimosi buna kisadi kiama ma kibeluka.
8 For I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers. I tell this one, 'Go.' and he goes; and to another, 'Come.' and he comes; and to my servant, 'Do this,' and he does it."
Bila minu veka ndidi ku tsi luyalu lu bapfumu ayi mbeki masodi ma ndieta tumina. Minu kamba kuidi wumosi: “Yenda” makenda. Minu kamba kuidi wunkaka: “Yiza” makiea. Minu kamba kuidi mvikꞌama: “vanga diadi!”, balavanga diawu.
9 When Jesus heard these things, he was amazed at him, and turned and said to the crowd who followed him, "I tell you, I have not found such great faith, no, not in Israel."
Yesu wusimina buwombo bu kawa mamu ma pfumu yi masodi. Buna wubaluka kuidi nkangu wuba kunlandakana ayi wutuba: —Bukiedika ndikulukamba ndimueni ko, ka diambu ko mu Iseli, minu kinneni banga kiaki.
10 And when those who had been sent returned to the house, they found the servant in good health.
Bamvuala mi pfumu masodi zivutuka kuawu kuna nzo, kuna yiyenda bata mvika beni mu buvini.
11 It happened soon afterwards, that he went to a city called Nain; and many of his disciples, along with a large crowd, went with him.
Mu lumbu kilanda, Yesu wuyenda ku divula dimosi diba bantedilanga Nayini. Minlonguki miandi minlandakana va kimosi ayi nkangu wuwombo.
12 And when he drew near to the gate of the city, then look, a man who was dead was carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow; and a large crowd from the city was with her.
Bu katula va difula di divula, wudengana batu banata mvumbi ku nganda yidivula. Wuba muana wumosi kaka wu difuola. Nkangu wu wombo wu divula wuba yandi va kimosi.
13 When the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said to her, "Do not cry."
Pfumu bu kamona difuola beni buna wummona kiadi ayi wunkamba: —Bika dila.
14 He came near and touched the coffin, and the bearers stood still. He said, "Young man, I tell you, arise."
Bosi wufikama vaba kesi yi mvumbi ayi wutetika koko kuandi va mbata kesi beni. Bobo banata kesi batelama. Buna wukamba: —Ndikutumina, muana ditoko, telama kuaku!
15 He who was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he gave him to his mother.
Zimbukila mutu wuba wufua wuvumbuka, wuvuanda ayi wutona yoluka. Yesu wumvana kuidi ngudi andi.
16 Fear took hold of all, and they glorified God, saying, "A great prophet has arisen among us." and, "God has visited his people."
Babo bamona tsisi, bakembisa Nzambi ayi batuba: —Mbikudi wunneni wututotukidi ayi Nzambi wizidi mu sadisa batu bandi.
17 This report went out concerning him in the whole of Judea, and in all the surrounding region.
Tsangu yi nsamu wawu yitembakana mu Yuda dioso ayi mu bizunga bizungidila.
18 The disciples of John told him about all these things.
Minlonguki mi Yowani mimana kamba Yowani mambu moso momo mavioka. Buna wutumisa minlonguki miandi miodi
19 John, calling to himself two of his disciples, sent them to the Lord, saying, "Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?"
ayi wuba fidisa kuidi Pfumu mu diambu banyuvula: —Bukiedika kuandi ti ngeyo mutu wowo wufueti kuiza voti tufueti vingila wunkaka e?
20 When the men had come to him, they said, "John the Baptist has sent us to you, saying, 'Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?'"
Batu beni bayenda kuidi Yesu ayi bankamba: —Yowani Mbotidi wututumini. Katu kembi tuyuvula: “ngeyo mutu wowo wufueti kuiza voti tufueti vingila wunkaka e?”
21 In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and to many who were blind he gave sight.
Muna thangu yina, Yesu wubelusa batu bawombo baba mu bimbevo ayi mu minsongo. Wubelusa batu bayamusu kuidi ziphevi zimbimbi ayi wuzibula meso ma baphofo bawombo.
22 Jesus answered them, "Go and tell John the things which you have seen and heard: that the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.
Buna wukamba kuidi bobo bafidudu: —Luvutuka kudi Yowani ayi lunkamba mambu momo lumueni ayi luwilu; baphofo zilembu moni; makoka malembu diati; batu ba buazi balembu vedusu, batu bafua matu balembu wi, bafua balembu fuluka; nsamu wumboti wulembu longu kuidi batu basukama.
23 Blessed is he who is not offended by me."
Khini kuidi mutu wela manga zimbisa minu kiandi mu diambu diama.
24 When John's messengers had departed, he began to tell the crowds about John, "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
Bamvuala zi Yowani bu zivutuka, Yesu wubaka diluaku di yolukila mambuma Yowani kudi nkangu wu batu: —Mbi biobi luyenda tala ku dikanga e? Nti wufioti wulembu vevumunu kuidi phemo e?
25 But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft clothing? Look, those who are gorgeously dressed, and live delicately, are in kings' courts.
Vayi buna nani luyenda tale e? Mutu wuvuata minledi mi kitoko e? Tala batu bobo bamvuatanga minledi mi kitoko ayi banzingilanga mu zikhini mu zinzo zi mintinu bankalanga.
26 But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.
Vayi buna mbi luyenda tala e? Mbikudi luyenda tala e? Nyinga buawu kuandi vayi ndikulukamba ti niandi viokidi mbikudi.
27 This is he of whom it is written, 'Look, I send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.'
Bila niandi wuyolukulu mu minkanda ti: Tala mfidisidi mvualꞌala ku ntualꞌaku, niandi wela kubika nzilꞌaku ku ntualꞌaku.
28 "I tell you, among those who are born of women there is none greater than John, yet he who is least in the Kingdom of God is greater than he."
Bukiedika ndikulukamba: mu batu boso bobo babutu kuidi baketo, kuidiko mutu wowo viokidi Yowani. Vayi wulutidi kefa mu kipfumu ki Diyilu wunlutidi.
29 When all the people and the tax collectors heard this, they declared God to be just, having been baptized with John's baptism.
—Batu boso bawa mambu momo ayi mimfutisi mi ziphaku, bazababusonga bu Nzambi bu babotoko kuidi Yowani.
30 But the Pharisees and the Law scholars rejected the counsel of God, not being baptized by him themselves.
Vayi Bafalisi ayi minlongi mi mina, bobo bamanga botoko kuidi niandi, va meso mawu baloza luzolo lu Nzambi.
31 "To what then will I liken the people of this generation? What are they like?
Banga banani ndenda dedikisa tsungi yayi e? Yidedikini banga babani e?
32 They are like children who sit in the marketplace, and call one to another, saying, 'We played the flute for you, and you did not dance. We mourned, and you did not weep.'
Yidedikini banga bana bafioti bavuedi va zandu ayi balembu kambasana bawu na bawu: Beto tulusikidi nsioni vayi lusia kina ko. Tuyimbila minkunga mi mafua vayi lusia dila ko.
33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, 'He has a demon.'
Bila Yowani wuyiza, kasia dia mampa ko ayi kasia nua vinu ko. Vayi lukamba: “Pheve yibmimbi yidi yandi.”
34 The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, 'Look, a gluttonous man, and a drunkard; a friend of tax collectors and sinners.'
Muana mutu wuyiza; wundia, wunua ayi luntuba: “Niandi nzuna kadi ayi kolu mbungu; nkundi mimfutisi mi ziphaku ayi bankua masumu.”
35 Wisdom is justified by all her children."
Vayi nduenga yimmonikanga yisonga mu nzila yi bana bandi.
36 One of the Pharisees invited him to eat with him. He entered into the Pharisee's house, and sat at the table.
Mfalisi wumosi wuleba Yesu mu dia yandi va meza. Yesu wuyenda ku nzoꞌandi ayi wuvuanda va meza.
37 And look, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that he was reclining in the Pharisee's house, she brought an alabaster jar of ointment.
Zimbukila va totuka nketo wumosi wu divula, wuba nsumuki. Wuzaba ti Yesu vuendi va meza ku nzo yi Mfalisi buna wunata bungu ki wala malasi, bungu beni kivangulu mu ditadi di alabatele.
38 Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
Wutelama ku mbusa malu mandi. Wuba dila ayi matsuela mandi mabua mu malu ma Yesu. Buna wufiona mawu mu zitsuki ziandi. Wufifa malu mandi besi ayi wufukudila mawu malasi.
39 Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, "This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner."
Bu kamona bobo, Mfalisi wowo wutumisa Yesu wuniunguta: enati bukiedika mutu wawu mbikudi nginu bakudingi nani nketowowo wulembu nsimbi nani ayi buevi kadidi; bila nkento nkua masumu.
40 Jesus answered him, "Simon, I have something to tell you." He said, "Teacher, say on."
Yesu wunkamba mu mbembo yingolo: —A Simoni, diambu didi yama di kukamba. Buna Mfalisi wumvutudila ti: —A nlongi, tuba kuaku!
41 "A certain lender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.
Buna Yesu wunkamba ti: —Vaba mutu wumosi wudevisa zimbongo kuidi batu buadi. Wutheti wudeva zikhama zitanu zi denali bosi wummuandi wudeva makumatanu.
42 When they could not pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him most?"
Sumbu bawu buadi basia ba ko zimbongo zikumvutudila, buna wubalemvukila. Mu mpila yaku, mu bawu buadi; nani wela luta kunzola e?
43 Simon answered, "He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most." He said to him, "You have judged correctly."
Simoni wuvutula: —Minu mbueni Mutu wowo wuba pholo yinneni. Buna Yesu wunkamba: —Bukiedika kuaku tubidi.
44 Turning to the woman, he said to Simon, "Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, and you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears, and wiped them with her hair.
Bosi wubaluka kuidi nketo ayi wukamba kuidi Simoni: —Mueni nketo wawu e? Mu thangu khotidingi mu nzoꞌaku, wusia kundatinanga ko nlangu mu diambu ndisukula malu. Vayi niandi bodisidingi malu mama mu matsuela mandi ayi fioniningi mawu mu zitsuki ziandi.
45 You gave me no kiss, but she, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.
Wusia ku mfifanga besi ko vayi tona buna khotidingi, niandi kakadi vonga mu lembu kafifanga malu mama bibesi.
46 You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.
Wusia dukulanga ko mafuta ku ntu ama vayi niandi dukudingimalasi mu malu mama.
47 Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little."
Diawu ndikukambila ti masumu mawombo momo mabedi yandi malemvokolobila wumonisina luzolo luwombo. Vayi mutu wowo beta lemvukila fioti, niandi mamvandi fioti kaka keti zodila.
48 He said to her, "Your sins are forgiven."
Bosi wukamba nketo: —Masumu maku malemvukulu.
49 And those who were reclining with him began to say to themselves, "Who is this who even forgives sins?"
Batu bobo baba yandi va meza bakambasana bawu na bawu ti: “Buna nani mutu wawu wulemvukila masumu?”
50 He said to the woman, "Your faith has saved you. Go in peace."
Vayi Yesu wukamba nketo: —Minu kiaku kivukisidi; yenda mu ndembama!
