< Luke 9 >

1 Then Jesus called the twelve together and gave them power and authority over all demons and to heal diseases,
A Yeshu gubhaashemilenje pamo likumi limo na bhabhili bhala, gubhaapelenje mashili na ukulungwa kupunda maoka gowe na kulamya ilwele.
2 and he sent them to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal the sick.
Gubhaatumilenje bhajendangananje kulunguya Upalume gwa a Nnungu na kulamya bhalwelenji.
3 He said to them, “Take nothing for your journey—no staffs, no knapsack, no bread, no money—and bring only one tunic each.
Gubhaalugulilenje, “Mmwanja gwenunji nnajamulanje shindu shoshowe, wala imbo, wala nkobha, wala shalya, wala mmbiya, wala likoti lya tindiganya.
4 Whatever house you enter, stay there until you leave that place.
Na nyumba jojowe jishimposhelwanje, ntamangane penepo mpaka lyubha lishinjabhulangane.
5 If any will not receive you, shake off the very dust from your feet as you leave that town, as a testimony against them.”
Bhandu bhakamposhelanje, nshokangane shene shilambosho na punkujabhulanga mwikung'undanje litutuli lya mmakongono genunji, ibhe shilangulo kuti, bhashikananga ashaayene ntenga gwa Upalume gwa a Nnungu.”
6 So they set out and went throughout the villages, preaching the gospel and healing people everywhere.
Bhai gubhajabhulengenenje pitalunguya Ngani ja Mmbone, shijiji na shijiji na lamya bhalwelenji kila mmbali.
7 Now Herod the tetrarch heard about everything that Jesus was doing, and he was greatly perplexed, because some were saying that John had been raised from the dead,
Numbe bhakulungwa a Elode bhakapilikaneje gowe gatendeshe, gubhatengwishe, pabha bhandu bhananji bhatendaga bheleketanga kuti, “A Yowana bhashiyuka.”
8 others were saying that Elijah had appeared, and others were saying that one of the ancient prophets had risen.
Bhana kuti a Eliya bhashikoposhela, bhana kuti ankulondola bha bhukala bhashiyuka.
9 But Herod said, “John I beheaded; who then is this man about whom I hear such things?” So he was looking for an opportunity to see him.
Ikabheje a Elode gubhashite, “Monaga a Yowana bho naainjile, lelo jwene jungupilikana ngani jakwejo gani?” Gubhakwete lilaka lya kummona.
10 When the apostles returned, they told Jesus about all they had done. Then he took them and withdrew privately to a desolate place belonging to a town called Bethsaida.
Mitume bhala bhakabhujanganeje, gubhaatalashiyenje Yeshu yowe ibhatendilenje. A Yeshu gubhaatolilelenje, nigubhapitenabhonji kujika mpaka shilambo sha ku Bhetishaida.
11 But when the crowds found out about it, they followed him. So he welcomed them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and cured those who had need of healing.
Ikabheje bhandunjibhala bhakamumanyanjeje kubhapite, gubhaakagulenje. A Yeshu gubhaaposhelenje, gubhajigenye ga ngani ja Upalume gwa a Nnungu, na kwaalamyanga bhandu bhapingangaga kulamywa.
12 As the day began to draw to a close, the twelve came up and said to Jesus, “Send the crowd away so that they can go into the surrounding villages and countryside and find lodging and provisions, for we are in a desolate place here.”
Lyubha lilititimila, likumi limo na bhabhili bhala gubhapite kwaalugulilanga, “Mwaalajilanje bhandunji bhajendangane mwilambo na mmigunda ja tome, bhakaloleyanje shalya na mwagona, pabha putuli pano pakonde.”
13 But he said to them, “You give them something to eat.” They said, “We have only five loaves and two fish—unless we are to go and buy food for this entire group of people.”
Ikabheje a Yeshu gubhaabhalanjilenje, “Mmanganya mwaapanganje shalya.” Gubhajangulenje, “Twangali shalya, ikabhe mikate nng'ano na yamaki ibhilipe. Igala tukaume shalya sha bhandu bhowebha!”
14 (For there were about five thousand men.) Then he said to his disciples, “Have them sit down in groups of fifty each.”
Pabha pepala, pubhalinginji bhanabhalume kuishila elupu nng'ano. Bhai, a Yeshu gubhaabhalanjilenje bhaajiganywa bhabho, “Mwaatamikanje makundi ga bhandu makumi nng'ano nng'ano.”
15 The disciples did so, and had everyone sit down.
Bhaajiganywa gwaatendilenje malinga shibhabhalanjilwenje, gubhaatamikenje bhowe.
16 Then Jesus took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he said a blessing over them. Then he broke the loaves and fish into pieces and gave them to the disciples to set before the crowd.
Kungai a Yeshu gubhatolile mikate nng'ano na yamaki ibhili ila, gwaalolile kunani kunnungu, gubhatendile eja kwa a Nnungu ga mikate na yamaki ila, gubhagebhenye na gubhaapelenje bhaajiganywa bhabho bhaapanganje bhandunji.
17 They all ate and were filled, and what was left over was picked up, twelve baskets of broken pieces.
Gubhalilenje bhandu bhowe, mpaka kujukuta, gubhalokotenyenje ipande ya malepei, nigumbaya ikapu likumi limo na ibhili.
18 Once when Jesus was praying in private and the disciples were with him, he asked them, “Who do the crowds say that I am?”
Lyubha limo a Yeshu bhatendaga juga Nnungu jikape, bhaajiganywa bhabho bhalinginji tome popo. Bhai a Yeshu gubhaabhushiyenje, “Igala bhandunji bhakutinji nne gani?”
19 They answered, “Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah, and others say that one of the ancient prophets has risen.”
Nigubhaajangwilenje, “Bhananji bhakutinji, mmwe a Yowana Bhabhatisha, na bhananji, bhakutinji mmwe a Eliya, na bhananji bhakutinji, mmwe ankulondola bha bhukala bhashiyuka.”
20 Then he said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered, “The Christ of God.”
Penepo a Yeshu gubhaabhushiyenje, “Na mmanganya nkutinji bhuli, nne gani?” A Petili gubhajangwile, “Mwe a Kilishitu bha a Nnungu.”
21 Jesus then warned them and instructed them to tell this to no one,
Penepo a Yeshu gubhaalimbiyenje na kwaalajiyanga bhanammalanjilanje mundu jojowe jene nganijo.
22 saying, “The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and he must be killed and on the third day rise again.”
A Yeshu gubhashite. “Mwana juka Mundu shapate mboteko yaigwinji, na shakanwe na bhanangulungwa na bhakulungwanji bhaabhishila na bhaajiganya bha shalia, na bhulagwa, ikabheje lyubha lya tatu shayushe.”
23 Then he said to them all, “If anyone wants to come after me, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.
Kungai gubhaabhalanjilenje bhandu bhowe, “Mundu jojowe apinga ngagula nne, anapinjikwa aikane nnyene, ajigale nshalabha gwakwe, angagule.
24 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it.
Pabha mundu apinga kuutapula nnyene gumi gwakwe, shaaguobhye, ikabheje apinga kuguobhya gumi gwakwe kwa ligongo lya ngu nne, shaagutapule.
25 For what does it benefit a person if he gains the whole world but loses or forfeits himself?
Bhuli shiimpwae nndi mundu, kupata indu yowe ya pa shilambolyo kwa obhya gumi gwakwe, eu kwiititimiya nnyene?
26 If anyone is ashamed of me and my words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when he comes in his glory and the glory of the Father and the holy angels.
Pabha mundu jojowe amonela oni nne ga majiganyo gangu, Mwana juka Mundu shammonele oni jwenejo, lyubha lya shajiye muukonjelo gwakwe, na gwa Atati na shilangaya sha ukonjelo gwa ashimalaika bha kunnungu.
27 But truly I say to you, there are some standing here who will certainly not taste death until they see the kingdom of God.”
Ngunakummalanjilanga kweli, pano pepano bhapalinji bhananji bhakawanganga mpaka bhaubhonanje Upalume gwa a Nnungu.”
28 About eight days after he had spoken these words, he took Peter, John, and James, and went up on a mountain to pray.
Gakaishileje mobha nane, bhakabheleketeje genego a Yeshu gubhaatolilenje a Petili, a Yowana na a Yakobho, gubhalongenenabhonji kushitumbi kukwaajuga a Nnungu.
29 As he was praying, the appearance of his face was altered, and his clothing became dazzling white.
Pubhaaliji nkwaajuga a Nnungu, nigubhapindikwishe kumeyo, nngubho yabho niwejela akuno ilimelemeta kwa kaje.
30 And behold, two men were talking with him; they were Moses and Elijah,
Shangupe bhandunji bhabhili a Musha na a Eliya gubhabhonekenje bhalikunguluka nabhonji.
31 who appeared in glory and were speaking about his departure, which he was about to bring to fulfillment in Jerusalem.
Bhashinkubhonekanga bhalinginji na Ukonjelo, gubhakungulukenje ga nnganya ja bhulagwa kwabho shijipinga malila ku Yelushalemu.
32 Now Peter and those who were with him were heavy with sleep, but when they became fully awake, they saw his glory and the two men standing with him.
A Petili na ashaajabhonji bhashinkugonanga lugono lwa tapatapa, ikabheje bhakajumukanjeje, gubhashibhweninji shilangaya sha Ukonjelo Gwapuya gwa a Yeshu na bhandunji bhabhili bhali bhajimi nabhonji.
33 As the men were parting from Jesus, Peter said to him, “Master, it is good for us to be here. Let us make three shelters, one for yoʋ, one for Moses, and one for Elijah,” not knowing what he was saying.
Bhai a Musha na a Eliya bhalijabhulangana kwaaleka a Yeshu, a Petili gubhaalugulile a Yeshu, “Mmakulungwa, shiipwae uwe tubhe apano! Bhai tushenje mishati jitatu, gumo gwenu, gumo gwa a Musha na gumo gwa a Eliya.” Ikabheje a Petili bhakaimanyaga ibhabheleketaga.
34 But as he was saying this, a cloud came and overshadowed them, and they were afraid as they entered the cloud.
A Petili bhali nkubheleketa genego, gulikoposhele liunde nikwaunishilanga, lyene liundelyo pulyaunishilangaga nigubhajogopenje kaje.
35 Then a voice came from the cloud, saying, “This is my beloved Son; listen to him!”
Lilobhe likupilikanikaga kukoposhela nniunde mula. “Jweneju ni Mwanangu juninng'agwile, mumpilikanishiyanje.”
36 When the voice finished speaking, they found that Jesus was alone. And the disciples kept silent, not telling anyone in those days about any of the things they had seen.
Likapilikanisheje lyene lilobhelyo, a Yeshu gubhabhoneshe bhali jikape. Bhaajiganywa gwaatemingene ilili. Na gene mobha gala bhangannugulilanga mundu indu yoyowe ibhaibhwenenje ila.
37 On the next day, when they came down from the mountain, Jesus was met by a large crowd.
Pamalabhi gakwe, bhalielelanga kukopoka kushitumbi na bhaajiganywa bhabho bhatatu bhala, gubhaimikene na likundi likulungwa lya bhandu.
38 And behold, a man from among the crowd cried out, “Teacher, I beg yoʋ to look at my son, for he is my one and only child.
Penepo mundu jumo nnikundi mula, gwakweshiye lilobhe alinkuti, “Mmaajiganya, shonde munjangutile mwanangu jwa jikaju!
39 A spirit seizes him, and he suddenly cries out; it convulses him so that he foams at the mouth. It hardly ever leaves him alone, bruising him severely.
Anashikilwa lioka, nikuntenda ajobhele na kunngwiya shialala, akuno shiulo shilikunkopoka nkang'wa. Alipunda kumpoteka kwa kaje na wala akakunneka shangu.
40 I begged yoʋr disciples to cast it out, but they could not.”
Naajujilenje bhaajiganywa bhenu bhanshoyanje, ikabheje bhangakombolanga.”
41 Jesus answered, “O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you and bear with you? Bring yoʋr son here.”
A Yeshu gubhashite, “Mmanganya lubheleko lwangali ngulupai na lwa puganika! Shiniipililile kutama na mmanganya mpaka shakani?” Kungai gubhaabhalanjile bhandu bhala, “Munnjienajo mwana jwenujo apano.”
42 Now as the boy was approaching, the demon threw him down and shook him with convulsions. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.
Mwana jula alikwiya kwa a Yeshu, lioka akunngwiyaga shialala. Ikabheje a Yeshu gubhankalipile lioka jula anshoshe, mwana jula gwalamiywe, gubhankamwiye kwa ainagwe.
43 And they were all astonished at the majesty of God. But while everyone was marveling at all that Jesus had done, he said to his disciples,
Bhandu bhowe gubhakanganigwenje, kwa ukulungwa gwa mashili ga a Nnungu. Bhandunji bhala bhalinginji nkukanganigwa kwa yowe ibhaaitendile a ila, a Yeshu gubhaalugulilenje bhaajiganywa bhabho,
44 “Let these words sink into your ears: The Son of Man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men.”
“Mpilikanishiyanje gegano. Mwana juka Mundu apinga kamuywa mmakono ga bhandu.”
45 But they did not understand what this meant. It was concealed from them, so that they could not grasp it, and they were afraid to ask him about it.
Ikabheje bhalabhonji bhangagamanyanga malombolelo ga shene shibheleketosho. Pabha shashinkuiywa kupinga bhanashimanyanje, na bhalabhonji gubhajogopenje kwaabhuya malombolelo ga shene shibheleketosho.
46 Now an argument arose among the disciples as to which of them was greater.
Gujikoposhele mitau munkumbi gwa bhaajiganywa, kuti gani jwankulungwa kupunda bhowe.
47 But Jesus, perceiving the thoughts of their hearts, took a child and placed him by his side.
A Yeshu bhashinkwiimanya ng'aniyo yaliji mmitima jabhonji, bhai gubhantolile mwana jwanshoko, gubhannjimishe tome na bhayene,
48 Then he said to them, “Whoever receives this child in my name receives me, and whoever receives me receives him who sent me. For he who is least among you all is the one who will be great.”
gubhaalugulilenje, “Mundu jojowe akumposhela jwene mwana jwa nshokoju kwa lina lyangu, anamboshela nne na jojowe amboshela nne anakwaposhela bhandumile bhala. Pabha ali jwanshoko munkumbi gwenunji, jwenejo jwankulungwa.”
49 John responded, “Master, we saw someone casting out demons in yoʋr name, and we told him to stop because he does not follow us.”
A Yowana gubhabhelekete, “Mmakulungwa, tushikwaabhona bhandu bhamo bhalishoya maoka kwa lina lyenu, gutulinjile kwaibhilila, pabha nngabha alongani ajetu.”
50 But Jesus said to him, “Do not stop him, for whoever is not against us is for us.”
Ikabheje a Yeshu gubhaabhalanjilenje, “Nnang'ibhililanje pabha akakuntaukangajo nnjenunji.”
51 Now when the days were approaching for Jesus' ascension, he set his face to go to Jerusalem.
Mobha ga tolwa a Yeshu kwenda kunani kunnungu gakabhandishileje, gubhatumbilile kwenda ku Yelushalemu.
52 He sent messengers on ahead, who went and entered a village of the Samaritans to make preparations for him.
Bhai gubhaatumilenje mitume bhalongolelanje, na bhalabhonji gwaapitengene kushilambo shimo sha Bhashamalia nkupinga bhakaalashiyanje paishila.
53 But the people there refused to welcome him, because his face was set to go to Jerusalem.
Ikabheje bhashilambo bha pepala gubhakanilenje kwaaposhela, pabha a Yeshu bhaliji mmwanja kwenda ku Yelushalemu.
54 When his disciples James and John saw this, they said, “Lord, do yoʋ want us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them, just like Elijah did?”
Bhai, bhaajiganywa bhabho, a Yowana na a Yakobho, bhakabhonanjeje nneila, nigubhashitenje, “Mmakulungwa, nnipinga tusheme moto kunnungu kugwatiniyanje?”
55 But he turned and rebuked them, saying, “You do not know what kind of spirit you belong to.
Ikabheje a Yeshu gubhaatendeushilenje nikwaakalipilanga.
56 For the Son of Man did not come to destroy people's lives but to save them.” And they went on to another village.
A Yeshu na bhaajiganywa bhabho gubhapitengenenje shilambo shina.
57 As they were going along the road, someone said to him, “I will follow yoʋ wherever yoʋ go, Lord.”
Bhalikwendangana mumpanda, mundu jumo gwabhabhalanjile a Yeshu, “Shininkagule kokowe kushinnjende.”
58 Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.”
A Yeshu gubhashite, “Nansheto akwete lishembo, na ijuni ikwete maui, ikabheje Mwana juka Mundu jwangali nkali pa pumulila.”
59 Then Jesus said to another man, “Follow me.” But the man said, “Lord, let me first go and bury my father.”
Kungai gubhannugulile mundu juna, “Ngagula.” Ikabheje jwenejo gwashite, “Mmakulungwa, nneshe oti ngaashishe atati.”
60 Jesus said to him, “Let the dead bury their own dead. But yoʋ go and proclaim the kingdom of God.”
Ikabheje a Yeshu gubhammalanjile, “Gwalekanje bhawilenje bhashikane ashaayene, ugwe ujende ukalunguye Upalume gwa a Nnungu.”
61 Still another said, “I will follow yoʋ, Lord, but first let me say goodbye to my family.”
Na mundu juna gwabhabhalanjile, “Mmakulungwa shininkagule, ikabheje nneshe oti ngalajile kumui.”
62 But Jesus said to him, “No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.”
A Yeshu gubhaalugulile, “Jojowe akamwile lijela nitandubha kulima, atendebhukaga kulola nnyuma, jwenejo akapwaa mu Upalume gwa a Nnungu.”
