Luke 18
1 And he spoke a parable to them to show that they ought to pray always, and not be faint-hearted:
neke akavavula ikihwanikisio ndavule lunoghile kukufunya jaatu, kisila kukatala.
2 saying, There was in a certain city a judge, who feared not God, nor regarded man.
akatisaha kwealyale umhighi mu likaaja limonga, juno naalayle ikumwoghopa uNguluve kange naavikilagha mu mwoojo kukuvatanga avaanhu.
3 And there was a widow in that city; and she kept coming to him, saying, Avenge me of my adversary!
mwealyale umfwile jumonga mulikaaja ilio, ghwope akamulutila kekinga akati, “nange unighilile un'koleumulugu ghwango aleke kutoola ifyango.
4 And he would not for some time. But afterward he said within himself, Though I neither fear God, nor regard man,
ku nsiki ntali naale ipinyile kuuti antange, neke ye ghukilile unsiki akasagha mu mwoojo ghwae. pope une nikumwoghopa UNguluve nambe kukuvoghopa avaanhu.
5 yet, because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her; lest by coming for ever she weary me out.
pope ulwakuva umfwile uju ikung'atasia nikuntanga akave ikighavo kyake neke aleke kukung'atasia kange”.
6 And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.
neke uMutwa akajova akati, 'pulikisia fino ajovile umhighi umhosi uju.
7 And will not God avenge his chosen, who cry to him day and night, though he be slow to punish in their behalf?
pe uNguluve ghwope naileta ikyang'haani ku vimike vake vano viku mulilila pamwisi na pakilo? pe umwene naiiva nulugudo kuveene?
8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. But yet, when the Son of man cometh, will he find faith on the earth?
nikuvavula kuuti, ikwisa ni kyang'haani kuveene ng'ani ng'ani. neke unsiki ghono umwana gwa muunhu ikwisa ilikulwagha ulwitiko lwa iisi?'
9 And to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised all others, he spoke this parable:
pepano akavavula ikihwani iki pwevalyale avaanhu vamonga vano vikuvoona kuuti aveene kuva vagholofu na kuvapenapula avange,
10 Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.
avaanhu vavili vakaluta kunyumba inyimike ja kufunyila: jumo aale mFalisayi nu junge n'songesia songo.
11 The Pharisee stood and prayed by himself thus: O God, I thank thee that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
umFalisayi akima na akifunya ndiki mu mwoojo ghwake, 'nikukuhongesia Nguluve vule une nanili ndavule avaanhu avange vano vakunyi, avaanhu vano vahoka makole, avavwafu nambe ndavule uju unsongesia songo.
12 I fast twice in the week; I give tithes of all that I gain.
une ku nywabaha nibuhila kulia kavili kange nitavula ilitekelo mu meto soni sino nikava.
13 But the publican, standing afar off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven; but smote his breast, saying, O God, be merciful to me a sinner!
neke unsongesia songo, alyimile pavutali looli nalyaghelile nambe kukwinamula amaaso ghake kukyanya. akatovatova pakifuva kya mwene akati, 'Nguluve unsaghile une ne muhosi'
14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for every one that exalteth himself will be humbled; but he that humbleth himself will be exalted.
nikuvavula, umuunhu ndavule uju alyagomwike kukaja apyanilue inyivi saake sooni kukila ujunge jula ulwakuva gheni juno ikughinia uNguluve alyamusia, ghwope juno ikujisia uNguluve alyantosia.
15 And they brought to him infants also, that he might touch them; and the disciples, on seeing it, rebuked them.
avaanhu vakatwalila avaanha avadebe kuuti vamwabasie, neke avavulanisivua vake ye vavwene aghu, vakavasigha.
16 But Jesus called them to him, saying, Suffer the little children to come to me, and forbid them not; for to such belongeth the kingdom of God.
neke uYesu akavakemela kwa mwene akatisagha, 'valeke avaanha avadebe vise kulyine nambe namungavasighahe. ulwakuva uvutwa vwa Nguluve vwe va vaanhu ndavule avuo.
17 Truly do I say to you, Whoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, will not enter therein.
kyang'ani nikuvavula, umuunhu ghweni juno naikvupila uvutwa vwa Nguluve hwene mwana sesene nailikwingila'.
18 And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good teacher, what shall I do to inherit everlasting life? (aiōnios g166)
um'baha jumonga akam'posia akati, 'm'bulanisi nono, nivombe kiki neke pambele nive nu vwumi vwa kusila na kusila?' (aiōnios g166)
19 And Jesus said to him, Why dost thou call me good? None is good but one, that is, God.
uYesu akamwamul akati, 'kiki ghukung'emela nnono? nakwale umuunhu juno nnono, loli ju Nguluve mwene.
20 Thou knowest the commandments: “Do not commit adultery; Do not kill; Do not steal; Do not bear false witness; Honor thy father and thy mother.”
usikagwile indaghilo nunga vwafukaghe, nungabudaghe, nungahijaghe, nungolekaghe uvudesi, umwoghopaghe uvaaso nu mamajo.
21 And he said, All these have I kept from my youth.
um'baha jula akati, 'isio sooni nigadilile kuhuma ye nili nsoleka”.
22 And Jesus hearing this said to him, One thing thou still lackest: sell all that thou hast, and distribute to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.
uYesu ye asipulike isio akam'bula, “upeelile ikinu kimonga. lunoghile ughusie ifinu fyoni fino ulinafyo neke uvaghavile avakotofu, najuve ghuliva ni kyuma ku kyanya - kange ghwise umbingilile'.
23 But when he heard this, he became very sorrowful; for he was very rich.
neke umofu ye apulike aghuo, akasukunile kyongo ulwakuva alyale ni kyuma kinga.
24 And Jesus seeing him said, How hardly do they that have riches enter the kingdom of God!
pe pano uYesu, akam'bona vule asukunile kyongo akati, 'lutalamu kyongo avanya kyuma kukwingila ku vutwa vwa Nguluve!
25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.
lwakuva kihugu kyongo ingamila kukilila pa kilioli kya sindano, kuliko kwa mmofu kukwingila ku vutwa vwa Nguluve.
26 And those who heard this said, Who then can be saved?
vala vano valyapulike aghuo vakati, pe ghweveni lino juno ndepoonu ipokua?'
27 But he said, What is impossible with men is possible with God.
uYesu akamula akati, 'sino avaanhu vikunua kuvomba ku ngufu saave neke kwa Nguluve sivombeka'.
28 Then Peter said, Lo! we left what we had, and followed thee.
uPeteli akati, 'Ena, usue tufilekile ifinu fyoni tukuvingilile uve.'
29 And he said to them, Truly do I say to you, There is no one that hath left house, or wife, or brothers, or parents, or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God,
pe pano uYesu akavavula, kyang'haani nikuvavula kuuti, nakwale umuunhu juno ajilekile inyumba, nambe un'dala nambe unyalukolo nambe avapafi nambe avaanha vwimila uvutwa vwa Nguluve,
31 And taking the twelve aside, he said to them, Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all that hath been written by the prophets concerning the Son of man will be accomplished.
pe baho ye vakong'anisie vala kijigjo na vavili, akavavula, 'lola, tutogha kuluta kuYelusalemu, na masio ghoni ghano ghalembilue na vavili kujova isa mwana ghwa Muunhu kuuti ghikwilana.
32 For he will be delivered up to the gentiles, and will be mocked, and insulted, and spit upon;
ulwakuva iiva mumavoko gha vaanhu avaYahudi vikum'bedagha na pikumuligha na pikumfunyila amate.
33 and they will scourge him, and put him to death; and the third day he will rise again.
kange vikun'kopagha ni fijeledi na kukum'buda neke pakighono ikya vutatu isyuuka.'
34 And they understood none of these things; and the meaning of these words was hidden from them, and they did not comprehend what was said.
navalyasikagwile sino ijova isi. nalilisio ili lifisilue kuveene, navalyasitang'inie sino sijovilue
35 And it came to pass, as he drew near to Jericho, that a certain blind man was sitting by the wayside begging.
pe lukava uYesu pano alipipi ku Yeliko, umuunhu jumonga um'bofu alikalile palubale lwa nsevo akaumagha vantange,
36 And hearing a multitude passing by, he asked what this meant.
ye apulike ilipugha lwa vaanhu likuling'ania akaposia kiki kihumila.
37 And they told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.
vakam'bula kuuti uYesu ghwa Nasaleti ikila.
38 And he cried out, saying, Jesus, Son of David, have pity on me!
pe um'bofu jula akalila fiijo akati, 'Yesu, mwana ghwa Davidi, unisaghile'.
39 And they who went before sharply bade him hold his peace. But he cried out the more, Son of David, have pity on me!
vala vano valyale vighenda vakan'dalikila um'bofu jula, vakam'bula ujike. neke umwene akaghina kulila fiijo, 'mwana ghwa Davidi, usanighile.
40 And Jesus stopped, and ordered him to be brought to him. And when he had come near, he asked him,
uYesu akima akasuuma umuunhu jula vamulete kwa mwene. pe um'bofu jula ye amuvelelile, uYesu akamposia,
41 What dost thou wish me to do for thee? And he said, Lord, to restore my sight.
ghulonda nikuvombele kiki? akati, 'Mutwa, nilonda kulola'.
42 And Jesus said to him, Receive thy sight; thy faith hath saved thee.
uYesu akam'bula, 'lino ulolaghe. ulwitiko lwako lukusosisie'.
43 And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, giving glory to God; and all the people on seeing it gave praise to God.
ku nsiki ghughuo akavisagha ilola, akam'bingilila uYesu na kukumughiniauNguluve. vati valyaghile ili, avaanhu vooni vakamughinia uNguluve.
