Matthew 4
1 Then Jesus was led up into the wilderness by the Spirit to be tempted by the devil.
Pepano uYesu akalongosovua nu Mhepo uMwimike kuluta ku lihaka, kuuti aghelue nu Setano.
2 And, after he had fasted for forty days and forty nights, he became hungry.
Ukuo uYesu akavuhiila kulia mulwa kufuunya ifighono fijigho fine pakilo n a pamwisi. Pambel, e jikam'bava injala.
3 The Tempter came to him, and said: “If you are God’s Son, tell these stones to become loaves of bread.”
Pe uSetano akamwisila kukumughela akati, “Nave uve uli Mwana ghwa Nguluve, ghavuule amavue agha ghahambuke ghaave makate.”
4 But Jesus answered, “Scripture says – ‘It is not on bread alone that a person is to live, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”
uYesu akamuka akati, “Lilembilue mu Malembe aMimike kuuti, 'Ikyakulia kyene nakikum'biika umuunhu kuuva mwumi, looli iiva mwumi vwimila amasio ghooni ghano ijova Nguluve.'”
5 Then the devil took him to the Holy City, and, placing him on the parapet of the temple, said to him,
Pe uSetano akantwala uYesu mu likaaja ilyimike ilya Yelusalemu. Akam'biika pakyanya fiijo apa nyumba inyimike ija kufunyila,
6 “If you are God’s Son, throw yourself down, for scripture says – ‘He will give his angels commands about you, and on their hands they will lift you up, so you do not even strike your foot against a stone.’”
akam'buula akati, “Nave uve uli mwana ghwa Nguluve, ghujughuje paasi, ulwakuja mu avanyamhola vaake kulyuve vakwang'e mu mavoko ghaave kuuti aleke pighua pa livue na kulemela.””
7 “Scripture also says,” answered Jesus, “‘You must not tempt the Lord your God.’”
uYesu akamwamula kange akati, “Mu Malembe aMwimike lilambilue kuuti, “Nungamughelaghe uMutwa, uNguluve ghwako.”
8 The third time, the devil took Jesus to a very high mountain, and, showing him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor, said to him:
Kange uSetano akamtwala uYesu pakyanya pa kidunda ikitali, pe akansoona iisi sooni palikimo nu vuvaha vwake.
9 “All these I will give you, if you will fall at my feet and worship me.”
akam'buula akati, “Nave ghufughama na na kukunyimika une, nikukupeela ifi fyoni.”
10 Then Jesus said to him, “Go away, Satan! For scripture says – ‘You must worship the Lord your God, and worship him only.’”
Pepano uYesu akati, “vuuka apa, Setano! Ulwakuva mu Malembe aMimike lilembile ndiiki, 'Umwimikaghe uMutwa, uNguluve Ghwako, kange um, bombelaghe jujuo mwene.'
11 Then the devil left him alone, and angels came and helped him.
Pepano uSetano akamuleka uYesu. Nakalingi, avanyamhola va Nguluve vakiisa, vakantengelela.
12 When Jesus heard that John had been arrested, he returned to Galilee.
Unsiki ghula uYohani uMwofughi alyadindilue mu ndinde. UYesu ye apuliike imhola ijuo akalutga ku Galilaya.
13 Afterward, leaving Nazareth, he went and settled at Capernaum, which is by the side of the sea, within the borders of Zebulun and Naphtali;
Ukuo, akavuuka mu kikaaja ikya Nasaleti akaluta kukukala mu likaaja ilya Kapenaumu. Ilikaaja ilio lilyale mulubale mu lisube ilya Galilaya, imbale isa iisi ija Sabuloni ni ja Nafutali.
14 in fulfillment of these words in the prophet Isaiah –
Uluo lulyavombiike kukwilanisia ilisio lino uMutwa alyajovile kukilila um'bili ghwake uYesaya kuuti,
15 ‘The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, the land of the Road by the sea, and beyond the Jordan, with Galilee of the Gentiles –
Ilise ija Sabuloni ni ja Nafutali, mu sila jino jiluta ku sumbe, imambo ja kikohka ikya Yolidani, iisi ija Galilaya, kwe kuno vikukala avaanhu vano na Vayahudi.
16 The people who were living in darkness have seen a great light, and, for those who were living in the shadow-land of death, a light has dawned!’
Avaanhu vala vano vikukakala mu ng'hiisi, valwaghile ulumuli uluvaha; voonpe vano vikukala mu ng'hiisi ija vufue, ulumuli luvamuliike.”
17 At that time Jesus began to proclaim – “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
Kuhuma unsiki ghula, uYesu akatengula kupulisia iiti, “Mulataghe inyivi siinu ulwakuva uvutwa uvwa kukyanya vuli piipi.”
18 As Jesus was walking along the shore of the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers – Simon, also known as Peter, and his brother Andrew – casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.
UYesu ye ighenda mulubale mu lisumbe ilya Galilaya, akavaagha avaanhu vavili vanamuunhu, juonga ghwe Simoni juno ilitavua ilingi akatambulwagha Peteli, nu Ndeleeya. Avaanhu ava valyale valovi, vakava nu nyaafu vilova isamaki mu lisumbe.
19 “Come and follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will teach you to fish for people.”
UYesu akavavuula akati, Mumbingililaghe! Une nikuvaviika kuuva valovi va vaanhu.”
20 The two men left their nets at once and followed him.
Unsiki ghughuo vakasileka inyaafu saave, vakam'bingilila.
21 Going further on, he saw two other men who were also brothers, James, Zebedee’s son, and his brother John, in their boat with their father, mending their nets. Jesus called them,
UYesu akaluta pavulongolo padebe, akavaagha avanamuunhu vavili uYakovo nu Yohani avakina Sebedaayi. Avuo, valyale mu ngalava palikimo nu viise uSebedaayi, vakava viling'hania inyaafu saave, voope akavakemeela.
22 and they at once left their boat and their father, and followed him.
Pala pala avanamuunhu vala vakamuleka uviise ni ngalava, vakam'bingilila uYesu.
23 Jesus went all through Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom, and curing every kind of disease and every kind of sickness among the people;
UYesu akava ighenda mu kighavo kyoni ikya Galilaya. Akava ikwingila mu masinagogi ghaave, ivulanisia na kupulisia iMhola iNofu ija vutwa vwaNguluve, kange akavasosyaghe avatamu inhamu saave sooni.
24 and his fame spread all through Syria. They brought to him all who were ill with any form of disease, or who were suffering pain – any who were either possessed by demons, or were lunatic, or paralyzed; and he cured them.
Imhola saake sikkakwila fiijo kuhanga kufika mu kighavo kyoni ikya Silia. Avaanhu pe vakavatwalagha avatamu vooni vano valyale ni nhumu sino silyale papinga. Mu avuo, mwevalyale vano valyale na mapepo amalamafu, na vanya kivafi na vanya liteela. UYesu akavasosyagha avuo vooni.
25 He was followed by large crowds from Galilee, the district of the Ten Towns, Jerusalem, Judea, and from beyond the Jordan.
Amapugha agha vaanhu kuhuma ku Galilaya, ku Dekapoli, ku Yelusalemu, ku Yudea ni mwambo ija kikogha ikya Yolidani ghakava ghikum'bili.
