Luke 19
1 Then Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through.
U Yesu aingile akhagenda pagati pa Yeriko.
2 And behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector and was rich.
Napo pale nu munu yumo alikhulambuliwa Sakhaye. Ale mbaha va vasongasogo khageale momafu.
3 He was trying to see who Jesus was, but he could not do so because of the crowd, for he was a short man.
Anokhwagwa ukhumbona U Yesu munu vandakhikhi, alemilwe ukhumbona ulwakhuva avanu vodegile, umwene ale isupi fincho.
4 So he ran on ahead and climbed a sycamore tree so that he could see him, because Jesus was about to pass by that way.
Pwu, akhalogola nambivi khuvanu, akhatoga mbinkhi ambone U Yesu ulwakhuva U Yesu agendile injila ila.
5 When Jesus came to that place, he looked up and saw him. Then he said to him, “Zacchaeus, hurry and come down, for I must stay at yoʋr house today.”
U Yesu avileafikhe pala akhalola khukhiya akhambula, sakhayo ikha nambivi, ulwakhuva ilelo nilenda munyumba yako.'
6 So he hurried down and received Jesus with joy.
Akha gakha nambivi, akhikha akhamwambelila khuluhekhelo.
7 When all the people saw it, they grumbled, saying, “He has gone to be the guest of a sinful man.”
Avanu voni vavilevalole incho, vakhakhuta, vakhata, 'Alutile khukhugendela umunu utulanogwa.'
8 But Zacchaeus stood there and said to the Lord, “Behold, half of my goods, Lord, I give to the poor, and if I have extorted anything from anyone, I will pay back four times the amount.”
U sakhai akhima akhanchova Ntwa, Lola Ntwa nusu ya khyuma kyango nikhuvapo avalemilwe, yegave nepokhile khumunu ikhinu, nikhumbunchekhencha mara khane. '
9 Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, because this man has shown that he too is a son of Abraham.
U Yesu akhambula, elelo uvupokhi vufikhe mnyumba eye, ulwakhuva mwape mwana va Abrahamu.
10 For the Son of Man came to seek and save the lost.”
Ulwakhuva umwana va munu inchile khulonda nu khuvapo kha avanu avayagile. '
11 Now as the people were listening to this, Jesus went on to tell a parable, because he was near Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God was going to appear at once.
Vavile vapulikhe ewo, akhedelela ukhunchova akhakhumya ikhihwani, ulwakhuva alepipi ne Yerusalemu, avene vakhata uludeva lwa Nguluve lukhegelile lulepakhuvonekha nambivi.
12 So he said, “A man of noble birth went to a distant country to receive a kingdom for himself and then return.
Pwu akhavavula, “Ukhalani yumo alutile khukhilunga ikhyakuvutali akhambilile uludeva nu khukhilivukha.
13 Calling ten of his servants, he gave them ten minas and said to them, ‘Engage in business until I return.’
Akhavilanga avavombi vamwene khinchigo, akhavapa ifineigo kumi, akhavavula, 'Mvombage iligunchi mpakha nelavanikhi ilivukha.'
14 But his subjects hated him and sent a delegation after him, saying, ‘We do not want this man to reign over us.’
Pwu avanuva mwene vakhambi pela vakhasuha avakhape tamu valute vakhoge nukhuta, satwinogwa umunu uyo atulogonchage.'
15 When he returned after receiving the kingdom, he summoned the servants to whom he had given the money, to find out who had gained what by engaging in business.
Pwu avileakhiliwikhe khukhaya wuvapile uvutwa, akhavavula avavombi uwuavalekhile indalama velagiwe khumwene, alumaye utengo ugwavapatile khumbo iyuvakhavokhavombelega.
16 The first came before him and said, ‘Master, yoʋr mina has made ten minas more.’
Uvakwanda akhincha, akhanchova, 'Ntwa, ikhibina khyako kiholile amabina kumi khuvulogolo. '
17 The king said to him, ‘Well done, good servant! Because yoʋ have been faithful in a very small matter, take authority over ten cities.’
Pwu ukalani akhambula, lunonu, ulembombi inonu. Ulwa khuva ukhale mwidekhinchi khumbombo endebe, wiva mwemelenchi khu vunchege khinchigo. '
18 The second came and said, ‘Master, yoʋr mina has made five minas.’
Uvaveli akhincha, akhata, 'Ntwa, ikhibina khyakho kholile amabina gakhano.'
19 The king said to him, ‘Yoʋ are to be over five cities.’
Ukalani akhambula,'Tola uvuloleli khuvunchegi vukhano. '
20 Another came and said, ‘Master, behold, here is yoʋr mina, which I kept put away in a piece of cloth.
Nu yuge akhincha, akhata, 'Ntwa ulupa ulutalama lwakho, Ngalubinile vunonu mumwenda,
21 For I was afraid of yoʋ, because yoʋ are a stern man. Yoʋ take out what yoʋ did not put in, and yoʋ reap what yoʋ did not sow.’
Ulwakhuva gadwadile uve ulemunu ikhali. Vutola khila ikhyuvekhile nukhubena ikhu suvyalile. '
22 The king said to him, ‘I will condemn yoʋ by the words coming out of yoʋr own mouth, yoʋ evil servant. Yoʋ knew, did yoʋ, that I was a stern man, taking out what I did not put in, and reaping what I did not sow?
Ukalani akhambula, 'Khumamenyu gakho nilhukhuhega, vivombi vembivi. Ukhalumayile ukhuta une numunu nkali, nitolaikhi sanivikhile nu khubena ikhisa nivyalile.
23 Why then did yoʋ not deposit my money in the bank, and when I came I would have collected it with interest?’
Khikhi, sukhavekhe ulutalama lwago khubengi, wunikhilivukha nitole paninie nulutitu?
24 Then he said to those standing nearby, ‘Take the mina from him and give it to the one who has ten minas.’
Ukalani akhavavula avanu avaemile pale, 'Pokhaga ubina mkhape ula unyamibina khinchigo.'
25 But they said to him, ‘Master, he has ten minas!’
Vakhambula, 'Ntwa, umwene alenemibina khinchigo. '
26 The king said, ‘I tell you that everyone who has will be given more, but the one who does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.
Nikhuvavula, khila avyalinafyo akhwogelenchiwa afinge, uvialivuvule, vitola nafilafila afialienafyo.
27 But as for those enemies of mine who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slay them in front of me.’”
Ulwakhuva avalugu vago, sawa khanogwa ukhata nive nkhu ludeva vavo, vag'eg'e apa mvabude khuvulogolo khulyune.”
28 After saying these things, Jesus continued on his way up to Jerusalem, walking ahead of his disciples.
Avile anchovile ewo, alikhulule kuvulogolo alikhutoga ukhuluta ku Yerusalemu.
29 As he drew near to Bethsphage and Bethany, at the mount called Olivet, he sent two of his disciples ahead,
Avile akhagelile khu Bethfage, na ku Bethania, pawipi nekhikyamba ikhya Mizeituni, akhava sukha avakuongi vavile,
30 saying, “Go into the village ahead of you. As you enter it, you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever sat. Untie it and bring it here.
Akhata: 'Mlutage mumbunchege uvulipipi. wumwingile, mkha londage ikhyana khya ligodowe ikyusakhitogiwe. Muhudulage, mukhag'eg'e khulyune.
31 If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ tell him this: ‘The Lord has need of it.’”
Umunu agavavunche, 'khikhi mukhwavula? 'Munchova, “Ntwa ikhuyelonda.”
32 So those who were sent went off and found it just as he had told them.
Avasukhiwe vakhaluta vakhayivona inyana ya ligodowe nduwvu U Yesu avavulile.
33 As they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, “Why are you untying the colt?”
Vavilevikhwavula inyana ya ligodowe, avanyaligodowe vakhavavula, 'Khikhi mukhwavula inyana ya ligodowe ile?'
34 They said, “The Lord has need of it.”
Vakhanchova, 'U Ntwa ikhuyelonda. '
35 Then they brought the colt to Jesus, threw their garments over it, and set Jesus on it.
Pwu vakhahelekha kwa Yesu, vakhatandikha imienda giavo pakyanya panyana ya ligodowe vakhantoncha U Yesu pakhinya.
36 As he went along, people were spreading their garments on the road.
Avileiluta avanuvalikhutandancha imienda ngivo musevo.
37 And as he drew near to the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to praise God joyfully with a loud voice for all the miracles they had seen,
Avileikhwi mkhiyamba ikhiya Mizeituni, ikhipuga khoni ikhiya vakongi valikhululitela na khuginya U Nguluve khumamenyu amavakha, khumbombo imbakha inchovanchiwene,
38 saying, “Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest!”
Valikhula, 'Uyu usayiwa ukurudeva uviikuwineha khulitawa lya Ntwa! Ulukhugu khukyanya, nulunonehekhencho khukyanya!'
39 But some of the Pharisees from among the crowd said to Jesus, “Teacher, rebuke yoʋr disciples.”
Avafarisai palulundamano vakhambula, Ndemi, vanunanche avakhongi vakho. '
40 In response he said to them, “I tell you, if they keep silent, the stones will cry out.”
U Yesu akhanda, akhata, 'Nivavule, vagave ava vinunula amaganga giywegapa fincho. '
41 As he drew near to Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it,
U Yesu avileakhegelile mumbo nchege akhalila,
42 saying, “If only yoʋ had known, especially on this day of yoʋrs what would bring yoʋ peace! But now it is hidden from yoʋr eyes.
Akhanchova mwalemulumaye nayumwe ikhigono ikhyilelo imbombo inchikhugegela uluhungu! Lino nchifikha mikhe pamikho gakho.
43 For the days will come upon yoʋ when yoʋr enemies build a barricade around yoʋ and encircle yoʋ, hemming yoʋ in on every side.
Ulwakhuva ifigono fikhwincha udugu vakho alanchenga uvunehege panie nuve, nukhukhu naugula nukhukhudidelencha ukhuma khwoni.
44 They will raze yoʋ to the ground, and yoʋr children within yoʋ. They will not leave in yoʋ one stone upon another, because yoʋ did not recognize the time of yoʋr visitation.”
Vikhukhugwisya pasi uve na vana vakho. Savakhakhulekhele iliwe limo pakhya panige, ulwakha sawalumaye usikhikhi U Nguruve apwavakhanogwagwa ukhukhupokha.'
45 Then Jesus entered the temple courts and began driving out those who were selling and buying there.
U Yesu akhigila Mtempeli, akhategula ukhuvamanyisya avagunchaga,
46 He said to them, “It is written, ‘My house is a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a den of robbers.”
Akhavavula, “Yesimbiwe, “Inyumba yago yiva nyumba ya khuvisayila, 'Umwe mvekhile ukhuva lipagala lya vakhenchi.”
47 Every day Jesus was teaching in the temple courts, but the chief priests and the scribes were seeking to destroy him, and so were the prominent leaders among the people.
U Yesu alikhumanyisya khila khigono Mtempeli. Avantwa na vamayisi va ndagilo na valogonchi va vanu vakhanogwa ukhumbuda,
48 But they could not figure out what to do, for all the people were hanging on his every word as they listened to him.
Pwu vakhahemwa injila iya khugakha fwo, ulwakhuva avanu voni valikhupulikhencha nulukhala.
