Luke 24
1 Before dawn on Sunday those women went to the tomb. They took with them the spices that they had prepared [to put on Jesus’ body].
Lyuŵa lyaandanda lya chijuma kundaŵi pe, achakongwe ŵala ŵapite ku lilembe ali ajigele mauta gakununjila gaŵalingenye.
2 They discovered that the stone had been rolled away from [the entrance to] the tomb.
Paŵaiche ŵalisimene liganga lyekulungwa lila lili lyegalambule pambali kutyochela pakwinjilila mwilembe.
3 They went in the tomb, but the body of the Lord Jesus was not there!
Nambo paŵajinjile nkati mo nganachisimana chiilu cha Ambuje Che Yesu.
4 They did not know what to think about that. Then suddenly two men wearing bright shining clothes stood by them!
Paŵaliji nkusimonga kwa ligongo lya yeleyo, kwanakamo ŵandu ŵaŵili uŵawete minjilo jakung'alima nnope ŵajimi pachiŵandi.
5 The [women] were frightened. As they prostrated themselves on the ground, the two men said to them, “(You should not be seeking someone who is alive in [a place where they bury] dead people!/Why are you seeking in [a place where they bury] dead people someone who is alive?) [RHQ]
Ŵele achakongwe wo ŵakamwilwe ni lipamba, ŵakoteme. Nambo ŵandu ŵala ŵaasalile, “Kwa chichi nkunsosa jwanjumi pasikati pa ŵandu ŵawe?
6 He is not here; he has (become alive again/risen from the dead)! Remember that while he was still with you in Galilee [district] he said to you,
Ŵelewo nganapagwa apano, asyuchile! Nkumbuchile iŵatite pakunsalila paŵaliji chiŵela ku Galilaya kula,
7 ‘[Even though I] am the one who came from heaven, [someone] will enable sinful men to seize [MTY] me. They will [kill me by] nailing me to a cross. But on the third day [after that], I will become alive [again].’”
achitiji, ‘Mwana jwa Mundu akusachilwa kuŵichikwa mmakono mwa ŵandu ŵa sambi ni kwaŵamba pa nsalaba nambo pa lyuŵa lyaatatu pakumala chiwa chao chachisyuka.’”
8 The [women] remembered that he had said that.
Pelepo achakongwe wo ŵagakumbuchile maloŵe ga Che Yesu.
9 So they left the tomb and went to the eleven [apostles] and his other [disciples] and told them those things.
Ŵausile kutyochela ku lilembe ni kwasalila achinduna kumi na moja pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵane ngani sya yele yose yo.
10 The ones who kept telling those things to the apostles were Mary from Magdala [village], Joanna, Mary who was the mother of James, and the other women [who were] with them.
Ŵele uŵaapelechele achinduna syele ngani ŵaliji che Maliamu kutyochela musi wa ku Magidala ni che Joana ni che Maliamu achikulugwe che Yakobo pamo ni achakongwe ŵane uŵalongene nawo.
11 But the apostles thought that what the women [said] was nonsense. They did not believe what the women said.
Nambo achinduna ŵala nganagakulupililaga maloŵe ga ŵele achakongwe wo ŵaganisisye galiji gangali malumbo.
12 But Peter got up and ran to the tomb [anyway]. He stooped down [and looked inside]. He saw the linen cloths [in which Jesus’ body had been wrapped]. [The cloths were] by themselves (OR, [He did not see] anything else). So, wondering what had happened, he went home.
Nambo che Petulo ŵajimwiche, ŵalukunwile mpaka ku lilembe ni ŵakoteme ni kulingulila nkati, ŵajiweni sanda pe. Nipele ŵatyosile achisimongaga ni kuliusya yele iyakopochele.
13 That same day two of [Jesus’ disciples] were walking to a village named Emmaus. It was about (seven miles/eleven kilometers) from Jerusalem.
Lyuŵa lilyolyo, ŵaŵili mwa ŵaŵankuyaga Che Yesu ŵajaulaga ku nsinda umo liina lyakwe Emau, uwaliji kwakutalikangana ni ku Yelusalemu mpela ulendo wa masaa gaŵili.
14 They were talking with each other about all the things that had happened [to Jesus].
Ŵalinji nkukunguluchila yankati yose iyakopochele.
15 While they were discussing those things, Jesus himself approached them and started walking with them.
Paŵakungulukaga ni kuusyana, Che Yesu asyene ŵaŵandichile ni kulongana nawo.
16 But they were prevented {[something] prevented them} from recognizing [MTY] him.
Ŵaweni kwa meeso gao nambo gasiŵikwe kuti ngasiŵamanyilila.
17 [Jesus] said to them, “What have you two been talking about while you were walking?” They stopped, and their faces looked very sad.
Che Yesu ŵausisye, “Ana ngani chi asi sinkukunguluchila nli nkwenda?” Nombewo ŵajimi chimyalalile ni ku meeso kwao kwalilasiche.
18 One of them, whose name was Cleopas, said, “(You [(sg)] must be the only person who is visiting Jerusalem [for the Passover festival] who does not know the events that have happened there in recent days!/Are you the only person who is visiting Jerusalem [for the Passover festival] who does not know the events that have happened there in recent days?) [RHQ]”
Jumo jwao, liina lyakwe che Kileopa, ŵanjanjile, “Ana mmwemwe pe jwannendo mu Yelusalemu ni ngankuimanyilila indu yaikopochele kweleko agano moŵa ga?”
19 He said to them, “What events?” They replied, “[The things that happened] to Jesus, [the man] from Nazareth, who was a prophet. Many people saw him [perform] great miracles, and God [enabled him] to teach wonderful [messages]!
Che Yesu ŵausisye, “Ana ngani chi?” Ŵanyawo ŵanjanjile, “Ngani jankati Che Yesu jwa ku Nasaleti. Jwelejo ŵawoneche ni Akunnungu ni ŵandu wose kuti ŵaliji jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu jwali ni ukombole mu indu iŵapanganyaga ni kuŵecheta.
20 But our chief priests and leaders handed him over [to the Roman authorities. The authorities] sentenced him to die, and they killed him by nailing him to a cross.
Achakulu ŵambopesi ni ilongola ŵetu ŵantyosisye melepe alamulikwe chiwa, nombewo ŵaŵambile pa nsalaba.
21 We [(exc)] were hoping that he was the one who would free [us] Israelites [from our enemies] But [this does not seem possible now, because] three days have [already] passed since that happened.
Noweji twaliji ni chilolelo chakuti ŵelewo ni ŵaŵatumikwe kwawombola ŵandu ŵa ku Isilaeli. Nambo lelo jino lili lyuŵa lyaatatu chitandilile kutendekwa yeleyo.
22 On the other hand, some women from our group amazed us. Early this morning they went to the tomb,
Sooni achakongwe ŵampepe mumpingo wetu ŵatutojimye. Ŵajawile ku lilembe kundaŵi pe,
23 but Jesus’ body was not there! They came [back] and said that they had seen some angels in a vision. The angels said that he was alive!
nambo nganachisimana chiilu chi Che Yesu. Ŵausile ni kutusalila kuti ŵakopochelwe ni achikatumetume ŵa kwinani ŵaŵaasalile kuti ŵelewo ali ŵajumi.
24 Then some of those who were with us went to the tomb. They saw that things were exactly as the women had reported. But they did not see [Jesus].”
Ŵandu ŵampepe uŵaliji pamo ni uwe ŵajawile ku lilembe kukulola yele yaŵecheteje achakongwe wo, nambo Che Yesu nganiŵawona.”
25 He said to them, “[You two] foolish [men! You are so] slow to believe all that the prophets have written [about the Messiah]!
Nipele, Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Mwanya nli ŵakuloŵela kwanti yele ni mitima jenu jili jakutopela nkukulupilila maloŵe gose gaŵaŵechete ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu.
26 ([You should certainly have known that] it was necessary that the Messiah should suffer all those things [and die], and then enter his glorious [home in heaven]!/Was it not necessary that the Messiah should suffer all those things [and die], and then enter his glorious [home in heaven]?) [RHQ]”
Ana nganiyaŵajila Kilisito Nkulupusyo akole masauko ga ni kwanti yeleyo ajinjile mu ukulu wao?”
27 Then he explained to them all the things that [the prophets] had written in the Scriptures about himself. He started with what Moses [MTY] [wrote] and then explained to them what all the [other] prophets [wrote].
Nipele, ŵaasagamulile gose gagaliji nkwagamba Mmalembelo ga Akunnungu kutandilila mmalembo ga che Musa mpaka mmalembo ga ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu wose.
28 They came near to the village to [which the two men] were going. Jesus indicated that he would go further,
Paŵaŵandichile aula nsinda uŵajaulaga, Che Yesu ŵatesile mpela akwaula mmbujo ni ulendo.
29 but they urged him [to not do that]. They said, “Stay with us [tonight], because it is late in the afternoon and it will soon be dark.” So he went in [the house] to stay with them.
Nambo ŵanyawo ŵachondelele kwa kuchalila achitiji, “Ntame nowe pakuŵa sambano kuswele ni chilo chikwinjila.” Nipele ŵajinjile nkati ni kutama nawo.
30 When they sat down to eat, he took some bread and [asked God to] bless it. He broke it and gave [some pieces] to them.
Paŵatemi kulya chakulya pamo nawo ŵaujigele nkate ni kwatogolela Akunnungu ni ŵaugaŵenye ni kwapa.
31 And just then [God] enabled them to recognize [MTY] him. But [immediately] he disappeared!
Kwanakamo meeso gao gaunukwiche ni ŵaamanyilile, nambo Che Yesu ŵatyosile pasikati jao.
32 The two men said to each other, “[While we were walking] along the road and he talked with us and [enabled] us [(inc)] to understand the Scriptures, we [became so excited that it was as though] [MET] a fire was burning within us [RHQ]! [We should not stay here; we should go tell the others what happened]!”
Nipele ŵaŵechetesyene, “Ana ngaŵa mitima jetu jasisimwiche paŵaŵechetaga nowe mwitala mula ni kutusagamukulila Malembelo ga Akunnungu.”
33 So they left immediately and returned to Jerusalem. There they found the eleven [apostles] and others who had gathered together with them
Papopo ŵajimi ni kuujila ku Yelusalemu, ŵaasimene achinduna kumi na moja ŵala pamo ni ŵandu ŵane ali asongangene pamo
34 who told [those two men], “It is true that the Lord has become alive again, and he has appeared to Peter!”
achitiji, “Isyene Ambuje asyuchile ni ŵakopochele che Simoni.”
35 Then those two [men] told [the others] what had happened [as they were walking] along the road. They also [told them how] they both recognized Jesus as he broke some bread [for them].
Ni uŵakuyaga Che Yesu ŵaŵili ŵala ŵamanyisye yose iyakopochele mwitala mula ni iŵatite pakwamanyilila Che Yesu paŵagaŵenye nkate.
36 As they were saying that, Jesus himself [suddenly] appeared among them. He said to them, “[May God give] you [inner] peace!”
Paŵaliji nkuŵecheta gelego, Che Yesu nsyene ŵajimi pasikati pao ni ŵaasalile, “Chitendewele chiŵe kukwenu.”
37 They were startled and afraid, [because] they thought that they were seeing a ghost!
Ŵatojime ni kogopa kwannope achiganisyaga kuti akuliwona lisoka.
38 He said to them, “(You should not be alarmed!/Why are you alarmed?) [RHQ] And (you should not be doubting [that I am alive]/Jesus!/why are you doubting [that I am alive]/Jesus?) [RHQ]
Nambo ŵelewo ŵaasalile, “Uli nkutenguka chichi ni kuŵa ni lipamba mmitima jenu?
39 Look at [the wounds in] my hands and my feet! You can touch me and see [my body]. Then you can see that it is really I myself. [You can tell that I am really alive] because ghosts do not have bodies, as you see that I have!”
Nnolanje makono gangu ni makongolo gangu, mmanyililanje kuti ndili une. Mumbapasye mulole pakuŵa lisoka nganilikola chiilu namuno maupa mpela inkuti kunola une.”
40 After he said that, he showed them [the wounds in] his hands and his feet.
Paŵamasile kuŵecheta gelego ŵalosisye makono ni makongolo gao.
41 They were joyful and amazed, [but] they still did not believe [that he was really alive] (OR, [that Jesus was the one that they were seeing]). [So] he said to them, “Do you have anything here to eat?”
Paŵaliji akanaŵe kulupilila kwa ligongo lya kusengwa ni kusimonga Che Yesu ŵausisye, “Nkwete chakulya chachili chose pelepa?”
42 [So] they gave him a piece of broiled fish.
Ŵapele chipande cha somba jejoche.
43 While they were watching, he took it and ate it.
Ŵachijigele ni kulya paujo pao.
44 Then he said to them, “[I will repeat] what I told you while I was still with you: Everything that was written about me by Moses and the [other] prophets [MTY] and in the Psalms must be fulfilled!”
Nipele ŵaasalile, “Gelega ni malumbo ga maloŵe ganansalile panaliji pamo ni ŵanyamwe kuti, gaŵajilwe gamalichikwe gose gagalembekwe gagang'ambaga une mu Malajisyo ga Akunnungu gaŵapele che Musa ni itabu ya ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu ni mu Sabuli.”
45 Then he enabled them to understand [the things that had been written about him in] the Scriptures.
Nipele ŵaaunukwile mu lunda lwao kuti akolanje kugamanyilila Malembelo ga Akunnungu,
46 He said to them, “This is what they wrote: That the Messiah would suffer [and die], but on the third day after that he would become alive again.
ŵaasalile, “Ilembechekwe Mmalembelo ga Akunnungu kuti Kilisito Nkulupusyo chalagaswe ni chasyuche lyuŵa lyaatatu pakumala chiwa chao,
47 [They] also [wrote that the message] must be preached {[that his disciples] must preach [the message]} [everywhere that people] must turn from their sinful ways for [God] to forgive their sins. [They wrote that his followers should preach that message, claiming] his authority [MTY]. They wrote that they should start [preaching] it in Jerusalem, and then [go and] preach it to all ethnic groups.
ni kuti ŵandu ŵa ilambo yose chitandile ku Yelusalemu alalichilwe kwa liina lyangu kuti alechanje sambi, nombe Akunnungu chiŵalechelesye.
48 You [apostles] must tell people that you know that those things [that happened to me] are true.
Ŵanyamwe ni uchimwasalile ŵandu umboni u.
49 And I want you to know that I will send the [Holy Spirit] [MTY] to you, as my Father promised that [he would do]. But you must stay in this city until God fills you with the power [of his Spirit].”
None nansyene chinampelechele chilanga cha Atati ŵangu pachanya penu, nambo nnindilile kaje ku Yelusalemu kula mpaka pachimpegwe machili kutyochela kwinani.”
50 Then [Jesus] led them outside [the city] until they came near Bethany [village]. There he lifted up his hands and blessed them.
Nipele Che Yesu ŵalongwesye kwaula mpaka ku nsinda wa Besania ni ŵanyakwile makono gakwe ni kwapa upile.
51 As he was doing that, he left them [and went up to heaven].
Paŵaliji nkwapa upile po ŵalisapwile ni ŵajigalikwe kwaula kwinani.
52 They worshipped him. And then they returned to Jerusalem very joyfully.
Ŵanyawo ŵapopelele, nombewo ŵausile ku Yelusalemu achichinaga,
53 Each day [SYN] they went into the Temple [courtyard], and spent a lot of time praising God.
ŵalonjele pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu moŵa gose achalapaga Akunnungu.
