Matthew 8
1 When Jesus went down from the hillside, large crowds followed him.
Yesu bu kakulumuka mongo; nkangu wunneni wunlandakana.
2 [After he left the crowds], a man who had [the skin disease called] leprosy unexpectedly came and knelt before him. He said [to Jesus], “Lord/Sir, [please heal me, because I know] you are able to heal me if you are willing to.”
Buna mutu wumosi wuba kimbevo kibuazi wuyiza kuidi Yesu, wufukama va ntualꞌandi ayi wutuba: —A Pfumu, enati tidi, wulenda kuaku kumbelusa!
3 Then Jesus, [disregarding the religious law that forbade people to come close to lepers], stretched out his hand and touched the man. He said [to him], “I am willing to [heal you], and I heal you [now]!” Immediately the man was healed from his leprosy {he was no longer a leper}.
Yesu wunonuna koko kuandi, wunsimba ayi wunkamba: —Nyinga thidi, beluka kuaku. Mu yina thangu wubeluka mu buazi buandi.
4 Then Jesus said to him, “Go and show yourself to a [nearby] priest [so that he can examine you and verify that you no longer have leprosy]. [Then], after he tells [the local people], they will know [that you no longer have leprosy], [and you will be able to associate with them again]. Make sure that [now] you do not report [about my healing you] to anyone [other than the priest]. Then go [to the Temple in Jerusalem and give the priest] the offering that Moses commanded [that people who have been healed from leprosy should offer] as a sacrifice to God.”
Bosi Yesu wunkamba: —Vayi keba, kadi kamba kadi kuidi mutu wumosi mambu mama vayi yenda kimonisa kuidi nganga Nzambi ayi nata dikaba dilomba Moyize mu diambu diba kimbangi kuidi bawu.
5 When Jesus went to Capernaum [city], a [Roman] officer who commanded 100 soldiers came to him. He begged Jesus [to help him].
Yesu bu katula ku Kafalinawumi, pfumu yimosi yi masodi wuyiza kuidi niandi. Wunleba ayi wutuba:
6 He said [to him], “Sir, my servant is lying [in bed] at home and is paralyzed, and he has severe pain.”
—Pfumu, kisadi kiama kilekidi ku nzo, kimbevo ki binama kidi yandi ayi ziphasi ziwombo kalembo moni.
7 Jesus said [to him], “I will go [to your house] and heal him.”
Yesu wumvutudila: —Nyinga, ndiela kuiza ayi ndiela kumbelusa.
8 But the officer said [to him], “Lord/Sir, [do not bother to go. I am a non-Jew], so I am not worthy for you, [a Jew], to come into my house [MTY] [and associate with me]. Instead, [just] command [that] my servant [be healed], and he will be healed.
Vayi Pfumu yi masodi wutuba: —A Pfumu! Minu ndisi wufuana ko muingi ngeyo wukota mu nzo ama vayi tuba kaka diambu dimosi buna kisadi kiama kiela beluka.
9 I [believe this] because, as for me, I am a man under the authority of others, and I also have soldiers under my authority. When I say to one of them ‘Go!’ he goes. When I say to another ‘Come!’ he comes. When I say to my slave, ‘Do this!’ he does it. [And I believe that you speak with a similar kind of authority].”
Bila nzebi diawu, minu mamvama ndidi ku tsi luyalu lu bapfumu ayi ndieti tumina bankaka. Minu kamba kuidi wumosi: “Yenda” makenda ayi minu kamba wunkaka: “yiza” makiza ayi kuidi kisadi kiama: “vanga buabu”, maka vanga buawu.
10 When Jesus heard this, he marveled. He said to the crowd that was walking with him, “Listen to this: I have never before found anyone who has as firm a faith [in me as this non-Jewish man has]. Not even in Israel, [where I would expect people to believe in me], have I found anyone who has the kind of faith in me that he has!
Yesu wusimina buwombo bu kawa mambu mandi. Wukamba batu bobo baba kunlandakananga: —Bukiedika ndikulukamba ndimueni ko minu kinneni mu Iseli dioso.
11 I tell you truly that many [other non-Jewish people] who [will believe in me like this Roman officer] will come from [distant countries, including] those [far] to the east and far to the west [SYN], and they will sit down to eat with [MTY] Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in heaven, where God rules.
Ndikulukamba ti batu bawombo bela ba ku Esite ayi ku Wesite bela vuanda mu kipfumu ki diyilu mu kipfumu ki diyilu va kimosi ayi Abalahami, Isaki ayi Yakobi.
12 But [the Jews] [IDM] [who should have allowed] God to rule over them will be sent to [hell, where there is] total darkness. And as a result, they will weep [because of their suffering] and will grind their teeth [because they will have severe pain] [MTY].” (questioned)
Vayi bobo bakubukulu kipfumu bela lozo ku nganda kuidi tombi, kuna kuela ba bidilu ayi nkuetoso wu meno.
13 Then Jesus said to the officer, “Go [home]. What you believed [would happen], [that I would heal your servant from a distance], will happen.” [Then the officer went home and found out that] his servant became well at the exact time [that Jesus told him that he would heal him].
Bosi Yesu wukamba kuidi pfumu yi masodi: —Vutuka kuaku bika buvangimina boso bu wilukidingi! Buna kisadi kiandi kibeluka kuandi muna thangu yina.
14 When Jesus [and some of his disciples] went to the home of Peter, Jesus saw Peter’s mother-in-law. She was lying on a bed because she had a fever.
Thangu Yesu katula ku nzo Piela, wuyenda bata nzitu Piela wuba wuleka va mbuka bila zinzangala zingolo ziba yandi.
15 He touched her hand, and as a result, [immediately] she no longer had a fever [PRS]. Then she got up and served them [some food].
Yesu bu kansimba mu koko, zinzangala zimana. Bosi wutelama mu kunkubikila bidia.
16 That evening [when] ([the Sabbath/the Jewish rest day]) [ended and restrictions about traveling ended], many people who were controlled by demons {whom demons controlled} [and people who were sick] [MTY] [were] brought to Jesus. He caused the demons to leave just by speaking to them, and he healed all the people who were sick.
Mu masika mana, banatina Yesu batu bawombo bobo baba ayi ziphevi zimbimbi. Mu mambu mandi katuba muawu kakukila ziphevi beni zimbimbi. Ayi wubelusa batu boso bobo baba bimbevo.
17 By doing this he fulfilled the words that had been said by the prophet Isaiah {that the prophet Isaiah had said} [about the Messiah]: “He healed people who had sicknesses and he cured them of their diseases.” [DOU]
Buawu bobo mambu mambikudi Ezayi madedikinina: Wubonga ziphasi zieto ayi wunata bimbevo bieto.
18 Jesus saw the crowd around him, but [he needed to rest]. So he told [his disciples to take him by boat] to the other side [of the lake].
Yesu bu kamona nkangu wu batu wunzungidila, wutuma minlonguki miandi mu sabuka ku disimu dinkaka di mbu.
19 [As they were walking toward the boat], a man who taught the [Jewish] laws came to him and said, “Teacher, I will go with you wherever you go.”
Nlongi wumosi wu Mina wufikama ayi wunkamba: —A nlongi, thidi kulandakana koso ku wunkuenda.
20 [In order that the man might know what he could expect if he went with him], Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes [in the ground in which to live], and birds have nests, but [even though I] am the one who came from heaven, I do not have a home where I can sleep [MTY].”
Vayi Yesu wumvutudila: —Mimbaku midi ayi minsuku miawu miomi mieti leka, zinuni zidi ayi zindiala ziawu, vayi Muana Mutu kasi ko buangu kikalenda vundisila ntu.
21 Another man who was one of Jesus’ disciples said to him, “Sir/Lord, permit me first to go [home. After] my father [dies I will] bury him, [and then I will come with you].”
Wumosi mu minlonguki miandi wunkanba: —A Pfumu! Wundemvukila, vingila theti ndienda ziki dise diama.
22 But Jesus said to him, “Come with me [now]. [God considers that people who do not have eternal life are] dead [MET]. Let those people [do the work of] burying people who die.”
Vayi Yesu wumvutudila: —Wundandakana; bika bafua bazika batu bawu bafua!
23 Then Jesus got into the boat. The disciples also got [in, and] they [started sailing close to the shoreline around Lake Galilee].
Buna wukuma mu nlungu ayi minlonguki miandi minlandakana.
24 Suddenly strong winds blew on the lake, and very high waves were splashing into the boat and filling it. But Jesus was sleeping.
Zimbukila vuka kimosi kingolo kitona mu mbu, mayo mavioka nlungu mu ntela vayi Yesu wuba wuleka.
25 They went and woke him up, and said [to him], “Sir/Lord, rescue [us!] We are about to drown!”
Minlonguki mifikama va kaba, minkotula mu yamikina: —Pfumu! Wutuvukisa, tueka mfua!
26 He said [to them], “(You should not be terrified!/Why are you terrified?) [RHQ] I [am disappointed that in spite of all you have seen me do], (you do not believe very much [that I can rescue you./] you not believe [that I can rescue you]?) [RHQ]” Then he got up and rebuked the wind and told the waves to calm down. And [the wind stopped blowing and the lake] became calm.
Yesu wuba vutudila: —Bila mbi lulembo monina boma e? Batu ba minu kikhioki! Yesu wutelama, wutemina vuka ayi mbu; buna ndembama yivutuka.
27 [As a result], they were amazed, and they said [to one another], “This man is certainly an [extraordinary] person [RHQ]! [All things are under his control!] Even the winds and the waves obey him [PRS]!”
Batu basimina ayi batuba: —A buna nani niawu muingi bivuka ayi mbu bintumukina e?
28 When they came to the [east] side [of the lake], they arrived in the region where the Gadarenes [lived]. [Jesus got out of the boat and began walking on the road. Then] two men who were controlled by demons {whom demons controlled} came out of the burial caves [where they were living]. Because they were extremely violent [and attacked people], no one dared to travel on the road [near where they were living].
Mu thangu batula ku disimu di mbu, mu zunga ki basi Ngelasa, batu buadi baba ziphevi zimbimbi batotuka mu biziami bayiza kundengana. Zinganzi ziwombo ziba yawu; diawu kadi mutu wumosi kasia nunga ko mu viokila vana.
29 Suddenly they shouted [to Jesus], “You are the Son of God! [Because] you have nothing in common with us [IDM, RHQ], [leave us alone] Have you come here [RHQ] to torture us before the time [MTY] [God has appointed to punish us]?”
Bayamikina: —Diambu mbi tidi kutuvanga ngeyo Muana Nzambi e? Wizidi mu kutuyamisa tuamina thanguꞌeto yifuana e?
30 There was a large herd of pigs not far away, digging for food with their noses.
Va ndambu beni vaba nkangu wu zingulu ziba ndia.
31 So the demons begged Jesus, saying, “You are going to cast us out of the men, so send us into the herd of pigs!”
Buna ziphevi beni zimbimbi zileba Yesu: —Enati weka tukuka, buna wututuma tukota kueto mu zingulu ziozi!
32 Jesus said [to them], “[If that is what you want], go!” So the demons left [the men] and entered the pigs. Suddenly the whole herd [of pigs] rushed down the steep bank into the lake and drowned.
Yesu wuba kamba: —Yendanu! Zitotuka mu batu buadi beni zikota mu zingulu. Buna zingulu beni zioso zibotuka nsualu ku mongo ayi zidiama mu mbu, zimana fua.
33 The men who were tending the pigs [became afraid and] ran into the town and reported everything [that had happened], including what had happened to the two men who had been controlled by demons {whom demons had controlled}.
Batu bobo basunga zingulu batina; bayenda nsualu ku divula ayi basamuna mamo maviokidi ayi mavangimini mu batu bobo baba ziphevi zimbimbi.
34 Then [it seemed as if] all [the people] [HYP] [who lived in] that town [MTY] went to meet Jesus. When they saw him [and the two men who had been controlled by the demons], they begged Jesus to leave their region [because they thought that he would destroy more things than just the pigs] (OR, [because they realized he must be very powerful]).
Batu boso ba divula dina bayiza dengana Yesu ayi bu bammona buna banleba kabotuka mu zunga kiawu.
