Luke 8
1 And it came to pass afterward, that he journeyed through cities and villages, preaching and publishing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God; and the twelve were with him,
Mme ka bofefo morago ga moo a etela metse le metsana ya Galalea go bolela go tla ga Bogosi jwa Modimo, mme a tsamaya le barutwa ba gagwe ba ba lesome le bobedi.
2 and certain women who had been cured of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom had come seven demons,
Basadi bangwe ba tsamaya nae, ba o ntshitseng mewa e e maswe mo go bone kgotsa ba o ba fodisitseng; mo go bone go ne go le Marea Magatalena (Jesu o ne a ntshitse mewa e e maswe ele supa mo go ene).
3 and Joanna, the wife of Chuzas, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, who afforded them aid from their substance.
Joana mosadi wa ga Chusa (Chusa e ne e le molaodi wa papadi ya ga Kgosi Herode a bile a le motlhokomedi wa ntlo ya segosi le dilwana tsa yone). Susana, le ba bangwe ba ba neng ba ntsha dikatso go otla Jesu le barutwa ba gagwe.
4 And a great multitude collecting together, and people from the cities going out to him, he spoke by a parable:
Ka letsatsi lengwe a neela boidiidi jwa batho ba ba neng ba phuthegile go tla go mo utlwa, setshwantsho se, fa ba bangwe ba bantsi ba sa ntse ba le mo tseleng ba tswa mo metseng e mengwe.
5 A sower went forth to sow his seed; and as he sowed, some seeds fell by the way-side; and they were trodden down, and the birds of the air devoured them.
“Molemi o kile a tswela kwa tshimong ya gagwe go ya go jala peo. Ya re a gasa peo fa fatshe, nngwe ya yone ya wela mo tseleng mme ya gatakwa; mme dinonyane tsa e e ja ka e ne e le mo lobaleng.
6 And others fell upon rocky ground; and when they had sprung up they withered away, because they had no moisture.
Peo e nngwe ya wela mo mmunyaneng o go neng go ikadile letlapa ka fa tlase ga one. Peo ya simolola go gola, mme ka bonako ya swaba ya a swa ka ntlha ya go tlhoka longola.
7 And others fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up with them, and choked them.
Peo e nngwe ya wela mo gare ga masitlwana, mme medi e mennye ya akofa ya hupela.
8 And others fell upon good ground, and sprung up, and bore fruit, a hundred-fold. While saying these things, he cried aloud, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
E nngwe ya wela mo mmung o o molemo; peo e ya gola ya ungwa thobo ya selekanyo sa lekgolo go menagane go gaisa ka fa a neng a jetse ka teng.” (Ya re a a fa setshwantsho se a re, “Yo o nang le ditsebe a a utlwe.”)
9 And his disciples asked him what this parable meant.
Baapostoloi ba gagwe ba mmotsa gore polelo e e rayang.
10 And he said, To you it hath been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God; but to others [[these things are spoken]] in parables; that while seeing they may not see, and while hearing they may not understand.
Mme a fetola a re, “Modimo o lo letleletse go itse tlhaloso ya ditshwantsho tse, gonne di bolela tiro e kgolo ya Bogosi jwa Modimo. Mme bontsintsi jo jwa batho bo utlwa mafoko mme ga ba tlhaloganye, fela jaaka baporofiti ba boletse.
11 Now the meaning of the parable is this. The seed is the word of God.
“Tlhaloso ya sone ke e: Peo ke molaetsa wa Modimo mo bathong.
12 Those by the way-side are they that hear; then cometh the Devil and taketh away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved.
Tsela e e kwakwaletseng e peo nngwe e wetseng mo go yone e tshwantshiwa le dipelo tse di thata tsa batho ba ba utlwang mafoko a Modimo, mme diabolo a tle a utswe mafoko a kganele batho go dumela le go bolokwa.
13 Those on the rocky ground are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root; and for a while they believe, and in time of temptation fall away.
Lefatshe le le maje le tshwantshiwa le ba ba itumelelang go reetsa dithero, mme ka mokgwa mongwe molaetsa tota o sa tsene mo go bone le gone ga o mele ebile ga o gole. Ba a itse gore molaetsa o o boammaaruri mme ba dumela ka lobakanyana fela; ere fa dipogiso di tla ba felelwe, ke kgatlhego.
14 And those seeds which fell among the thorns, these are they who, when they have heard, go away and are choked with the cares and riches and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to perfection.
Peo e e mo gare ga mitlwa e tshwantshiwa le batho ba ba dumelang mafoko a Modimo mme ba e reng morago tumelo ya bone e hupediwe ke matshwenyego le dikhumo le ditiro le maitumelo a botshelo. Mme jalo ga ba na nonofo ya go thusa ope go dumela Mafoko a a Molemo.
15 But the seeds on the good ground, these are they who in an honest and good heart, when they have heard the word, hold it fast, and bear fruit with constancy.
“Mme mmu o o molemo o tshwantshiwa le batho ba ba ikanyegang ba ba pelo di siameng. Ba reetsa mafoko a Modimo ba a tshegetse mme ba a anamise ka bonya mo go ba bangwe.”
16 And no one having lighted a lamp, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a lampstand, that those who come in may see the light.
[Ka nako e nngwe a botsa a re, ] “E mang yo o kileng a utlwalela mongwe yo e a reng a sena go tshuba lobone a lo khurumetse gore lo se ka lwa bonesa? Nnyaa! Dipone di bewa mo di ka bonwang teng.
17 For nothing is secret, that will not be made manifest; nor hidden, that will not be known, and come to light.
Se se supa gore ka letsatsi leo sengwe le sengwe [mo dipelong tsa batho] se tlaa leriwe mo leseding mme se supegediwe botlhe.
18 Take heed therefore how ye hear; for whoever hath, to him will be given; and whoever hath not, from him will be taken even what he seemeth to have.
Jalo itlhokomeleng ka fa lo reetsang ka gone, gonne yo o nang le gone, o tlaa newa mo go tona; mme le fa e le mang yo o senang sepe, le e leng se o nang naso tota o tlaa se tseelwa.”
19 And his mother and his brothers came where he was, and could not get to him on account of the crowd.
Mme ya re ka nako nngwe fa mmaagwe le bomonnawe ba tsile go mmona, ba seka ba tsena mo tlung e o neng a ruta mo go yone ka ntlha ya bontsintsi jwa batho.
20 And word was brought to him, Thy mother and thy brothers stand without, desiring to see thee.
E rile Jesu a utlwa fa ba eme kwa ntle ba batla go mmona,
21 And he answering said to them, My mother and my brothers are these, who hear the word of God, and do it.
a re, “Mme le bonnake ke botlhe ba ba utlwang molaetsa wa Modimo ba bo ba o tshegetsa.”
22 Now it came to pass on a certain day, that he went into a boat with his disciples, and said to them, Let us go over to the other side of the lake; and they put off.
Ka letsatsi lengwe mo lobakeng loo, fa ene le barutwa ba gagwe ba le kwa ntle mo mokorong, a ntsha mogopolo wa gore ba kgabaganyetse ka kwa ntlheng e nngwe ya lecha.
23 But as they were sailing, he fell asleep. And there came down a storm of wind on the lake, and they were filling with water, and were in jeopardy.
Mme ya re ba kgabaganya a rapama a thulamela, mme ya re a sa ntse a robetse ga tsoga matsubutsubu a phefo a a boitshegang a leka go kgaphela mokoro mo lewatleng. Mme ba ne ba le mo diphatseng tse di kgolo.
24 And they came and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we are perishing! And he rose, and rebuked the wind, and the surging of the water; and they ceased, and there was a calm.
Mme ba taboga ba mo tsosa ba goa ba re, “Morena, Morena re a nwela!” Hong a bua le phefo a re, “Kgaotsa,” mme diphefo le makhubu a metse tsa khutla, gotlhe ga nna tidimalo.
25 And he said to them, Where is your faith? And they were afraid, and wondered, saying one to another, Who then is this, that he commandeth even the winds and the water, and they obey him?
Mme a ba botsa a re, “Tumelo ya lona e kae?” Mme ba bo ba tletse therego le go mmoifa ba raana ba re, “Monna yo ke mang, yo le e leng diphefo le makhubu a metse a mo utlwang?”
26 And they sailed to the country of the Gergesenes, which is over against Galilee.
Mme ba goroga ka fa ntlheng e nngwe, mo lefatsheng la Bagerasena go lebagana le lecha la Galalea.
27 And when he had landed, there met him a certain man out of the city who had demons, and for a long time had worn no clothes, and abode not in a house, but in the tombs.
Ya re a fologa mo mokorong monna yo o tswang mo motseng wa Gatara a tla go mo kgatlhantsha, monna yo o neng a tsenwe ke mewa e e maswe ka lobaka lo lo leele. A se na legae a bile a sa ikatega, a nna mo mabitleng mo gare ga diphupu.
28 And seeing Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and said with a loud voice, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, Son of the most high God? I beseech thee, do not torment me.
Ya re ka bonako fa a bona Jesu a gala a wela fa fatshe fa pele ga ga Jesu, a goa, a re, “O batla go dirang ka nna, Jesu, Morwa Modimo o o tlotlegang? Tsweetswee, ke a go rapela, o se ka wa ntlhokofatsa!”
29 For he was about to command the unclean spirit to come out of the man; for it had possessed him for a long time, and he had been kept bound and secured with chains and fetters; and bursting the bands, he had been driven by the demon into the wilderness.
Gonne Jesu o ne a setse a laola mowa o o maswe gore o tswe mo go ene. Mowa o o maswe o ne o tle o laole monna yo mo e leng gore e ne e tle e re le fa a bofilwe ka dikeetane a kgaole mme a siele mo nageng, a laolwa ke mowa o o maswe gotlhelele.
30 And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion; because many demons had entered into him.
Mme Jesu a botsa mowa oo maswe a re, “Leina la gago ke mang?” Mme wa fetola wa re, “Diketekete,” gonne o ne a tletse diketekete tsa mowa o o maswe!
Mme ya mo kopa gore a se ka a e laolela go tsena mo lehuting le le senang bolekanngo. (Abyssos g12)
32 Now there was there a herd of many swine feeding on the mountain; and they besought him to permit them to go into them. And he permitted them.
Serapa sa dikolobe sa bo se fula gautshwane mo mhapheng wa thaba mme mewa e e maswe ya mo kopa gore a e letle go tsena mo dikolobeng. Mme Jesu a e letla.
33 And the demons coming out of the man went into the swine; and the herd rushed down the steep into the lake, and were drowned.
Mme ya tswa mo monneng ya tsena mo dikolobeng, mme ka bonako serapa sotlhe sa kgokologa thaba sa wela mo teng ga lecha kwa tlase, mo di neng tsa nwela teng tsotlhe.
34 And the herdsmen, seeing what was done, fled, and told the news in the city and in the country.
Hong badisa ba dikolobe ba sianela kwa motsing o o gaufi, ba gasa mafoko fa ba ntse ba siana.
35 And they went out to see what had been done. And they came to Jesus and found the man from whom the demons had gone out sitting, clothed, and in his right mind, at the feet of Jesus; and they were afraid.
Ka bofefo bontsintsi jwa batho jwa tla go iponela ka bobone se se diragetseng mme ba bona monna yo o neng a tsenwe ke mowa o o maswe a ntse ka tidimalo fa dinaong tsa ga Jesu, a apere a bile a ikutlwa sentle. Mme bontsintsi jwa batho botlhe ba tshoga thata.
36 And they who had seen it told them how he that was possessed by demons was made well.
Hong ba ba neng ba bone selo se se diragala ba bolela ka fa monna yo o neng a tsenwe ke mewa e e maswe a fodisitsweng ka teng.
37 And the whole multitude in the surrounding country of the Gergesenes besought him to depart from them; for they were seized with great fear. And he went on board a boat and returned.
Mme batho botlhe ba kopa Jesu gore a tsamaye a ba tlogele (gonne therego e kgolo ya letshogo e ne ya ba wela). Mme a boela kwa mokorong a tsamaya, a kgabaganyetsa gape ka kwa ntlheng e nngwe ya lecha.
38 And the man out of whom the demons had gone besought him that he might be with him. But he sent him away, saying,
Monna yo o neng a tsenwe ke mewa e e maswe a kopa go tsamaya le ene, mme Jesu a gana.
39 Return to thy house, and tell what great things God hath done for thee. And he went and published through the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him.
A mo raya a re, “Boela kwa go ba ntlo ya gago, o ba bolelele selo se sentle se Modimo o se go diretseng.” O ne a tsamaya le motse otlhe a bolelela mongwe le mongwe kaga kgakgamatso e kgolo ya ga Jesu.
40 And it came to pass when Jesus returned, that the multitude welcomed him; for they were all waiting for him.
Ka fa ntlheng e nngwe ya lecha bontsintsi jwa batho jwa mo amogela ka botlalo, gonne ba ne ba ntse ba mo lebeletse.
41 And lo! there came a man, named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue; and falling at the feet of Jesus, he besought him to come into his house;
Mme jaanong monna yo o neng a bidiwa Jairo, moeteledipele wa ntlo ya thuto ya Sejuta, a tla a wela fa dinaong tsa ga Jesu a mo kopa gore a ye nae kwa ga gagwe,
42 for he had an only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. And as he went, the multitudes thronged him.
gonne ngwana wa gagwe yo o esi o ne a swa, morweetsana wa dingwaga tse di lesome le bobedi. Mme Jesu a tsamaya nae, ba sutlhelela ka bothata mo gare ga batho.
43 And a woman who had had an issue of blood twelve years, and had spent all her living upon physicians, and could not be cured by any one,
Ya re ba ntse ba tsamaya mosadi yo o neng a batla phodiso a tla kwa morago a ama Jesu, gonne o ne a dutlile madi ka bonya selekanyo sa dingwaga di le lesome le bobedi, mme a sa bone kalafi (ntswa a sentse sengwe le sengwe se a neng a na naso mo dingakeng), mme nako e o neng a ama ntlha ya seaparo sa ga Jesu, madi a ema.
44 came up behind and touched the fringe of his garment; and immediately her issue of blood ceased.
45 And Jesus said, Who touched me? And when all denied it, Peter and those with him said, Master, the multitudes are thronging thee, and pressing against thee.
Mme Jesu a botsa a re, “Ke mang yo o nkamileng?” Mme mongwe le mongwe a itatola, mme Petere a re, “Morena, bontsintsi bo go dikaganyeditse…”
46 But Jesus said, Some one touched me; for I perceived that power went out from me.
Mme Jesu a mo raya a re, “Nnyaa, e ne e le mongwe fela yo o nkamileng ka bomo, gonne ke utlwile nonofo ya phodiso e tswa mo go nna.”
47 And the woman, seeing that she was discovered, came trembling, and falling down before him declared before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was cured immediately.
Mme ya re mosadi a lemoga gore Jesu o a itse, a simolola go roroma a wela fa fatshe ka mangole fa pele ga gagwe a mmolelela go re o ne a mo amelang le gore jaanong o fodile.
48 And he said to her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee well; go in peace.
Hong Jesu a mo raya a re, “Morwadiaka, tumelo ya gago e go fodisitse. Tsamaya ka kagiso.”
49 While he was yet speaking, there cometh one from the house of the ruler of the synagogue, saying, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Teacher any further.
E rile a sa ntse a bua le ene, morongwa a goroga a tswa kwa lapeng la ga Jairo ka mafoko a a reng ngwanyana o sule. A raya rraagwe ngwana a re, “O sule, ga go thuse go tshwenya Moruti jaanong.”
50 But Jesus hearing this, answered him, Fear not; only believe, and she will be made well.
Mme e rile fa Jesu a utlwalela se se diragetseng, a raya rraagwe ngwana a re, “Se boife! Ikanye nna fela, ngwana o tla siama.”
51 And going into the house, he suffered no one to go in with him but Peter and John and James, and the father of the maiden, and the mother.
Ya re ba goroga kwa tlung Jesu a se ka a letla ope go tsena mo tlung fa e se Petere, Jakobe le Johane le batsadi ba morweetsana.
52 And all were weeping, and lamenting for her. But he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleeping.
Lelapa le ne le tletse batho ba ba hutsafetseng, mme a re, “Lesang go lela! Ga a a swa; o robetse fela!”
53 And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead.
Se sa tlisa tshotlo le setshego, gonne ba ne ba itse botlhe gore o sule.
54 But he took hold of her hand, and called aloud, saying, Maiden, arise!
Hong a mo tshwara ka seatla a mmitsa a re, “Tsoga morweetsana.”
55 And her spirit returned, and she immediately arose. And he ordered food to be given to her.
Mme ka yone nako eo a rula a nanoga! A ba raya a re, “Mo neeng sengwe a je!”
56 And her parents were amazed. But he charged them to tell no one what had been done.
Batsadi ba gagwe ba ne ba itumela thata. Mme Jesu a ba laya gore ba seka ba bolelela ope kaga se se diragetseng.
