Luke 7
1 When he had ended all his discourse in the hearing of the people, he entered Capernaum.
Yesu pakamaliriti kutakula vyoseri kwa wantu, kagenditi Kafarinaumu.
2 And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick, and about to die.
Mkulu gwa wanjagila miya yimu kaweriti na ntumini yakamfiriti nentu. Ntumintumi kaweriti kalwala tashitashi.
3 And having heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, and besought him to come and save his servant.
Mkulu ulii pakapikaniriti visoweru vya Yesu, kawatumiti wazewi wa Shiyawudi kumluwa kizi kamuponiziyi ntumintumi gwakuwi.
4 And they came to Jesus, and besought him earnestly, saying, He is worthy that thou shouldst do this for him;
Wagenditi kwa Yesu na kumuhiga nentu pawalonga, “Muntu ayu kafiruwa gumtenderi shitwatila ashi.
5 for he loveth our nation, and himself built the synagogue for us.
Kawafira wantu wetu na mweni katunyawira numba ya Mlungu.”
6 And Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying, Lord, trouble not thyself; for I am not worthy that thou shouldst come under my roof;
Su Yesu kagenda pamuhera na womberi. Pakaweriti pakwegera na ukaya kwa mkulu ulii, mkulu ulii kawatumiti waganja wakuwi wamgambiri Yesu, “Mtuwa naguligaziya hera. Gwenga gufiruwa ndiri kwingira mnumba mwangu,
7 on which account I did not think myself worthy to come to thee; but command with a word, and let my servant be healed.
na neni mona nfaa ndiri ata kwiza kwa gwenga. Kumbiti gutakuli hera, ntumini gwangu hakaweri mkomu.
8 For even I am a man set under authority, having soldiers under me; and I say to this one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
Mana neni viraa namuntu gwa pasi pa ukulu, nanawa wamanjagila yanuwalongoziyiti. Panumgambira yumu, ‘Gugendi!’ Yomberi kagenda na panumgambira yumonga, ‘Gwizi!’ Yomberi kiza na panumgambira ntumintumi gwangu, ‘Gutendi shintu ashi!’ Nayomberi katenda.”
9 And Jesus hearing this, wondered at him; and turning round said to the multitude that followed him, I say to you, Not even in Israel have I found such faith.
Yesu pakapikaniriti hangu kalikangasha, su kaligalambukiriti lipinga lya wantu lyalimfatiti pakalonga, “Nankuwagambirani, mpata ndiri kuwona muntu kana njimiru gambira ayu Muisraeli!”
10 And they who were sent, returning to the house, found the servant well.
Wantu walii pawasokiti ukaya kwa Mkulu wamwoniti ntumintumi ulii kawera mkomu nakamu.
11 And it came to pass the day after, that he was going to a city called Nain; and many of his disciples were with him, and a great multitude.
Shakapanu, Yesu kagenditi lushi lwawalushema Naini, wafundwa wakuwi pamuhera na lipinga likulu lya wantu wagenda nayomberi.
12 And as he came near the gate of the city, lo! there was carried out dead an only son of his mother, and she was a widow; and a great multitude from the city was with her.
Su pakaweriti pakwegera na mlyangu mkulu gwa Iushi, wantu wampapiti yakahowiti waweriti wankulawa kunja kwa Iushi. Yakahowiti kaweriti mwana gwagweka gwa mdala yakaweriti mkenja, na lipinga likulu lya wantu waweriti pamuhera nayomberi.
13 And when the Lord saw her, he was moved with compassion for her, and said to her, Weep not.
Mtuwa pakamwoniti mkenja ulii, kamwonera lusungu mdala ulii, kamgambiriti, “Nagulira.”
14 And he came up, and touched the bier; and they who bore it stood still; and he said, Young man, I say to thee, Rise.
Shakapanu kalisegelera lijeneza lya yakahowiti na kulishinkula, wantu wawalipapiti wagoloka. Yesu kalonga, “Muntemba! Nukugambira gwimuki!”
15 And he that was dead sat up and began to speak; and he gave him to his mother.
Muntu ulii yakahowiti kalivaga, su kanja kuyowera. Yesu kamupa mawu gwakuwi.
16 And fear seized on all, and they gave glory to God, saying, A great prophet hath risen up among us; and, God hath visited his people.
Wantu woseri weniti lyoga wamkwisiti Mlungu pawalonga, “Mbuyi mkulu kalawira pakati petu. Mlungu kiza kuwalopoziya wantu wakuwi!”
17 And this report about him went forth in all Judaea, and in all the neighboring country.
Visoweru avi vya Yesu viyeniyiti mulushi loseri lwa Yudeya na lushi zya pakwegera.
18 And the disciples of John told him all these things.
Wafundwa wa Yohani wamgambiriti Yohani vitwatira avi vyoseri, nayomberi pakawashemiti kala awili wamu wa wafundwa wakuwi
19 And calling to him two of his disciples, John sent them to the Lord, saying, Art thou he that is to come, or are we to look for another?
kawatumiti kwa Mtuwa wakamkosiyi, “Hashi, gwenga ndo gwamweni yatumuhepera, ama tumuheperi gwingi?”
20 And the men came to him and said, John the Baptist hath sent us to thee, saying, Art thou he that is to come, or are we to look for another?
Wafundwa walii wamgendiriti Yesu na kumgambira, “Yohani Mbatiza katutuma kwaku tukukosiyi handa gwenga ndo uliya yakatakuliti gwankwiza ama tumuheperi gwingi?”
21 In that hour he cured many of diseases, and plagues, and evil spirits, and to many who were blind he gave sight.
Shipindi shiraa shilii Yesu kaweriti kankuwaponiziya wantu wavuwa weniti na malweri na wamonga waniti na washamshera wadoda na kuwapanana wanalwisi wavuwa kulola.
22 And he answered and said to them, Go and tell John what ye have seen and heard; that the blind receive sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor good tidings are brought;
Su Yesu kawankula wantumintumi wa Yohani pakalonga, “Mgendi mwakamgambiri Yohani vyoseri vyamuviwoniti na kuvipikinira, wanalwisi wawona, wavibyeketu wagendagenda, woseri walii yawawera na ungumbula wapungwa, yawawera na majogu vinu wapikinira, wahowiti su wazyuka na Shisoweru Shiwagira shibwerwa kwa wahushu.
23 and blessed is he, whoever shall find no occasion of stumbling in me.
Mbaka woseri walii wahera lyoga na neni.”
24 And when the messengers of John had departed, he began to say to the multitudes concerning John, What have ye gone out into the wilderness to see? the reeds shaken by the wind?
Su wajumbi wa Yohani pawawukiti kala, Yesu kanja kuligambira lipinga kwajili ya Yohani, “Pamgenditi kumlola Yohani kushiwala mfira kulola shintu gaa? Mfiriti kuwona gambira mateti ntambu yagatikinyika na lihega? Ndala!
25 But what have ye gone out to see? a man clothed in soft raiment? Lo! they who wear gorgeous apparel, and live luxuriously, are in kings' palaces.
Su mgenditi kumlola muntu gwa ntambu gaa? Hashi mliholiti Mgenditi kumlola muntu kavaliti nguwu ziherepa? Ndala, wantu yawavala nguwu ziherepa na kubojola vinoga noga vyaviwera muukulu!
26 But what have ye gone out to see? A prophet? Yea, I say to you, and more than a prophet.
Su mung'ambiri, mgenditi kumlola muntu gwa ntambu gaa? Mgenditi kumlola mbuyi gwa Mlungu? Yina nakaka, tuwona gavuwa nentu kuliku mbuyi.
27 This is he of whom it is written, “Lo! I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.”
Yohani ayu ndo yumu yawamtakula mukulemba, kulonga, ‘Mlungu kalonga, hanumtumi mjumbi gwangu hakakulonguleri kukunyawira njira kwajili yaku.’”
28 I say to you, Among those born of women there is no greater prophet than John; but he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
Yesu kamaliriti kwa kulonga, “Nukugambirani, Yohani ndo mkulu kuliku woseri yawalikaliti pasipanu. Kumbiti yakaweriti mdidini Muwufalumi wa Mlungu ndo mkulu kuliku Yohani.”
29 And all the people when they heard him, and the publicans, acknowledged God as righteous by being baptized with the baptism of John.
Wantu woseri wampikaniriti. Wantu wavuwa asa watola kodi ndo wagajimiriti Malagaliru Mananagala ga Mlungu, awa ndo walii Yohani yakawabatiziti.
30 But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the purpose of God toward themselves, not being baptized by him.
Kumbiti Mafalisayu pamuhera na wafunda wa Malagaliru wagulemiti mpangu gwa Mlungu na wamlemiti Yohani kawabatizi.
31 To what then shall I compare the men of this generation, and what are they like?
Yesu kongera kulonga, “Vinu wantu wa mashaka aga walifana na shintu gaa?
32 They are like children sitting in the market-place, and calling one to another, saying, We piped to you, and ye did not dance; we sung a dirge, and ye did not weep.
Walifana gambira wana yawalivaga pahala pa guliwu. Shipinga shimu shishigambizisiya shamonga, ‘Tuviniti msambu gwa ndowa kumbiti mwenga mvina ndiri! Twimba lwimbu lwa kudaya kumbiti mlila ndiri!’
33 For John the Baptist hath come not eating bread, nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a demon.
Yohani Mbatiza pakiziti, koyiti kuliya na kalanda ndiri divayi, kumbiti mwenga mlongiti, ‘Kana washamshera!’
34 The Son of man hath come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold, a glutton and a wine-bibber, a friend of publicans and sinners!
Kiziti Mwana gwa Muntu, kaliyiti shiboga na kulanda, kumbiti mwenga mtakula, ‘Mumloli muntu ayu, Kana lwaliya na mkologeru, ganja gwa watola kodi na wanavidoda!’
35 But wisdom is acknowledged by all her children.
Kumbiti luhala lwa Mlungu luwonekana kuwera lwa nakaka kwa wantu woseri yawalijimira.”
36 And one of the Pharisees asked him to eat with him; and he went into the Pharisee's house, and reclined at the table.
Mfalisayu yumu kamshemera Yesu walii shiboga sha pamihi pamuhera nayomberi na Yesu kingiriti mnumba mwa Mfarisayu na kulivaga pasi kuliya shiboga.
37 And lo! a woman who was in the city, a sinner, learning that he was at table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster-bottle of ointment,
Su palushi palii peniti na mdala yakaweriti na makaliru ga vidoda. Kapikaniriti handa Yesu kankuliya shiboga mnumba ya Falisayu, katoliti supa ya alabasta yayiweriti na utuli.
38 and standing behind at his feet, weeping, began to wet his feet with tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
Kagenda kagoloka pakwegera pamagulu pa Yesu pakalila na masozi gakuwi gamtulukiriti Yesu pamagulu. Kapukuta magulu ga Yesu kwa vilii zyakuwi na kunonera magulu, kagaswaga utuli.
39 And the Pharisee who had invited him, when he saw this, said within himself, This man, if he were a prophet, would know who, and what sort of woman, this is that toucheth him; for she is a sinner.
Mfalisayu pakawoniti hangu, kalitakuliti pakalihola mumoyu mwakuwi, “Handa muntu ayu nakaka ndo mbuyi gwa Mlungu, hakavimani handa mdala yakakushinkula ka gaa, hakavimani makaliru ga vidoda ntambu yakawera nagu!”
40 And Jesus answering said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he saith, Teacher, say on.
Yesu kamgambira Mfarisayu uliya, “Simoni, nana shintu shakukugambira.” Simoni kamwankula, “Yina mfunda gung'ambiri.”
41 A certain money-lender had two debtors; one owed five hundred denaries, and the other fifty.
Yesu kamgambira, “Kuweriti na wantu awili yawamkopiti muntu yakakopesha mpiya. Yumu kakopiti senti zivuwa na yumonga senti zivuwa ndiri.
42 When they had nothing to pay, he freely remitted the debt of both. Which of them, now, will love him the most?
Pawasinditi kulipa uwanda wawu, muntu uliya kawalekiziya woseri awili. Vinu pakati pa wantu awili walii, yoshi hakamfiri nentu muntu ayu yakawalekiziyiti?”
43 Simon answering said, He, I suppose, to whom he remitted the most. And he said to him, Thou hast judged rightly.
Simoni kamwankula, “Nuvimana kuwera, ulii yawamlekiziyiti uwanda mkulu nentu” Yesu kamgambira, “Gutakula nweri.”
44 And turning to the woman, he said to Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered thy house, no water didst thou give me for my feet; but she wet my feet with tears, and wiped them with her hair.
Kamgalambukira mdala uliya na kumgambira Simoni, “Gumwona mdala ayu? Niziti pakaya paku, gunupa ndiri mashi gakunaviya magulu gangu, kumbiti mdala ayu kaganaviya magulu gangu kwa masozi gakuwi na kumpukuta kwa vilii zyakuwi.
45 No kiss didst thou give me; but she, from the time I came in, did not cease to kiss my feet.
Gwenga gunamsiya ndiri kwa kunonera, kumbiti mdala ayu kwanjira paningiliti kaweriti pakanonera magulu gangu.
46 My head with oil thou didst not anoint; but she anointed my feet with costly ointment.
Gwenga gunswagaziya ndiri lipaki mumtuwi mwangu, kumbiti mdala ayu kagapakaziya magulu gangu kwa utuli.
47 Wherefore, I say to thee, her many sins have been forgiven; for she loved much; but he to whom little is forgiven loveth little.
Su nukugambira, kwa kufira kwakuwi kukulu kulanguziyiti nakaka kuwera vidoda vivuwa vyakaweriti navyi vilekiziwa. Kumbiti ulii yakalekiziwa padidini kalanguziya kufira padidini hera.”
48 And he said to her, Thy sins have been forgiven.
Su Yesu kamgambira mdala uliya, “Gulekiziwa vidoda vyaku.”
49 And those who were at table with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that even forgiveth sins?
Wantu wamonga yawaweriti walivaga pameza wanjiti kulitakuliziyana weni pawalonga, “Ayu gaa yakaweza kulekiziya vidoda?”
50 But he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.
Kumbiti Yesu kamgambira mdala uliya, “Kujimira kwaku kukulopoziya, gugendi kwa ponga.”
