< Luke 24 >

1 But very early on the first day of the week they went to the tomb, taking with them the spices that they had prepared.
Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya wa kwambĩrĩria kiumia, rũciinĩ tene, atumia magĩthiĩ mbĩrĩra-inĩ makuuĩte indo nungi wega iria maathondekete.
2 They found that the stone had been rolled away from the tomb;
Nao magĩkora ihiga rĩgaragarĩtio rĩkeherio mũromo-inĩ wa mbĩrĩra,
3 and, on going into it, they could not find the body [of the Lord Jesus].
no rĩrĩa maatoonyire, matiigana gũkora mwĩrĩ wa Mwathani Jesũ.
4 While they were at a loss to account for this, all at once two men stood beside them, in dazzling clothing.
Na rĩrĩa maagegete nĩ ũhoro ũcio, makiumĩrĩrwo o rĩmwe nĩ arũme eerĩ mehumbĩte nguo njerũ ciakengaga mũno, makĩrũgama hakuhĩ nao.
5 But, when in their fear the women bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them: “Why are you looking among the dead for him who is living?
Nao atumia acio metigĩrĩte mũno, makĩinamĩrĩra, magĩturumithia mothiũ mao thĩ, no arũme acio makĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũracaria ũrĩa ũrĩ muoyo kũrĩ arĩa akuũ nĩkĩ?
6 [He is not here; but he has risen.] Remember how he spoke to you before he left Galilee —
Ndarĩ haha; nĩariũkĩte! Ririkanai ũrĩa aamwĩrire hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aarĩ na inyuĩ Galili atĩ:
7 How he said that the Son of Man must be betrayed into the hands of wicked men, and be crucified, and rise again on the third day.”
‘Mũrũ wa Mũndũ no nginya aneanwo moko-inĩ ma andũ ehia, aambwo mũtĩ-igũrũ, na mũthenya wa gatatũ ariũke.’”
8 Then they remembered the words of Jesus,
Hĩndĩ ĩyo makĩririkana ciugo ciake.
9 and, on returning from the tomb, they told all this to the Eleven and to all the rest.
Na rĩrĩ, maacooka kuuma mbĩrĩra-inĩ, makĩhe arutwo arĩa ikũmi na ũmwe na arĩa angĩ othe ũhoro ũcio.
10 There were Mary of Magdala, and Joanna, and Mary, the mother of James. The other women, too, spoke about this to the Apostles.
Mariamu Mũmagidali, na Joana, na Mariamu nyina wa Jakubu, na atumia arĩa angĩ maarĩ nao, nĩo meerire atũmwo ũhoro ũcio.
11 What they said seemed to the Apostles mere nonsense, and they did not believe them.
No-o matiigana gwĩtĩkia atumia acio, tondũ ũhoro ũcio wahaanaga ta ũrimũ kũrĩ o.
12 [But Peter got up and ran to the tomb. Stooping down he saw nothing but the linen wrappings, and he went away, wondering to himself at what had taken place.]
No rĩrĩ, Petero agĩũkĩra, agĩtengʼera mbĩrĩra-inĩ. Na ainamĩrĩra akĩona mataama ma gatani maigĩtwo thĩ marĩ moiki, agĩĩthiĩra agegearĩte nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo gwekĩkĩte.
13 It happened that very day that two of the disciples were going to a village called Emmaus, which was about seven miles from Jerusalem,
Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya o ro ũcio arutwo eerĩ a Jesũ maarĩ rũgendo-inĩ magĩthiĩ itũũra rĩetagwo Emau, rĩarĩ ta kilomita ikũmi kuuma Jerusalemu.
14 talking together, as they went, about all that had just taken place.
Nao nĩmaragia ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mothe meekĩkĩte.
15 While they were talking about these things and discussing them, Jesus himself came up and went on their way with them;
Na rĩrĩa maathiiaga makĩaragia ũhoro ũcio, Jesũ akĩmoimĩrĩra, agĩtwarana nao;
16 but their eyes were blinded so that they could not recognise him.
no matiigana kũrekwo mamũmenye.
17 “What is this that you are saying to each other as you walk along?” Jesus asked. They stopped, with sad looks on their faces,
Nake akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũhoro ũrĩkũ ũcio mũrathiĩ mũkĩaragia?” Nao makĩrũgama matukĩte mothiũ.
18 and then one of them, whose name was Cleopas, said to Jesus: “Are you staying by yourself at Jerusalem, that you have not heard of the things that have happened there within the last few days?”
Ũmwe wao, wetagwo Kileopa akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wee kaĩ ũrĩ mũgeni Jerusalemu ũtamenyete maũndũ marĩa mekĩkĩte kuo matukũ-inĩ maya?”
19 “What things do you mean?” asked Jesus. “Why, about Jesus of Nazareth,” they answered, “who, in the eyes of God and all the people, was a Prophet, whose power was felt in both his words and actions;
Nake akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ maũndũ marĩkũ?” Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũhoro wa Jesũ wa Nazarethi, ũrĩa ũraarĩ mũnabii ũrĩ na ũhoti wa ciugo iria araaragia na ciĩko iria areekaga arĩ mbere ya Ngai o na mbere ya andũ othe.
20 and how the Chief Priests and our leading men gave him up to be sentenced to death, and afterwards crucified him.
Athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene na aathani aitũ maramũneanire atuĩrwo kũũragwo, na maramwambithia mũtĩ-igũrũ.
21 But we were hoping that he was the Destined Deliverer of Israel; yes, and besides all this, it is now three days since these things occurred.
No ithuĩ-rĩ, tũrehokaga atĩ ũcio nĩwe ũgũkũũra andũ Isiraeli. Makĩria ma ũguo, rĩu nĩ mũthenya wa ĩtatũ kuuma maũndũ maya mothe mekĩka.
22 And what is more, some of the women among us have greatly astonished us. They went to the tomb at daybreak
Hamwe na ũguo atumia amwe aitũ nĩmatũmakirie mũno tondũ megũthiĩte mbĩrĩra-inĩ rũciinĩ tene,
23 And, not finding the body of Jesus there, came and told us that they had seen a vision of angels who told them that he was alive.
no matinona mwĩrĩ wake. Mokire matwĩra atĩ nĩmonire kĩoneki kĩa araika, arĩa mameerire atĩ arĩ muoyo.
24 So some of our number went to the tomb and found everything just as the women had said; but they did not see Jesus.”
Nao amwe a thiritũ iitũ nĩmathiire mbĩrĩra-inĩ, na makora o ũguo atumia acio mekuugĩte, no rĩrĩ, we mwene matinamuona.”
25 Then Jesus said to them: “O foolish men, slow to accept all that the Prophets have said!
Nake Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ andũ aya mwagĩte ũũgĩ na mũtihiũhaga gwĩtĩkia maũndũ mothe marĩa anabii moigĩte!
26 Was not the Christ bound to undergo this suffering before entering upon his Glory?”
Githĩ to mũhaka Kristũ ambe anyariirwo na acooke atoonye riiri-inĩ wake?”
27 Then, beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them all through the Scriptures the passages that referred to himself.
Jesũ akĩmataarĩria ũhoro wothe ũrĩa waarĩtio Maandĩko-inĩ ũmũkoniĩ, ambĩrĩirie na maandĩko ma Musa na ma Anabii othe.
28 When they got near the village to which they were walking, Jesus appeared to be going further;
Na maakuhĩrĩria itũũra rĩrĩa maathiiaga, Jesũ agĩtua taarĩ kũhĩtũka arahĩtũka.
29 but they pressed him not to do so. “Stay with us,” they said, “for it is getting towards evening, and the sun in already low.” So Jesus went in to stay with them.
No makĩmũringĩrĩria na hinya, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Raarĩrĩra gũkũ na ithuĩ, nĩkũratuka na gũkiriĩ kũgĩa nduma.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩtoonya aikaranie nao.
30 After he had taken his place at table with them, he took the bread and said the blessing, and broke it, and gave it to them.
Rĩrĩa aikarire metha-inĩ hamwe nao, akĩoya mũgate, agĩcookia ngaatho, akĩwenyũranga, akĩmahe.
31 Then their eyes were opened and they recognised him; but he disappeared from their sight.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo makĩhingũka maitho, makĩmũmenya, nake akĩbuĩria, makĩaga kũmuona rĩngĩ.
32 “How our hearts glowed,” the disciples said to each other, “while he was talking to us on the road, and when he explained the Scriptures to us!”
Nao makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Githĩ ngoro ciitũ itiikũhĩahĩaga hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ekwaragia na ithuĩ njĩra-inĩ, na agĩtũtaarĩria ũrĩa Maandĩko moigĩte?”
33 Then they immediately got up and returned to Jerusalem, where they found the Eleven and their companions all together,
Nao magĩũkĩra o hĩndĩ ĩyo magĩcooka Jerusalemu. Kũu magĩkora arutwo arĩa ikũmi na ũmwe, hamwe na arĩa maarĩ nao monganĩte,
34 who told them that the Master had really risen, and had appeared to Simon.
makiugaga atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ma! Mwathani nĩariũkĩte na nĩoimĩrĩire Simoni.”
35 So they also related what had happened during their walk, and how they had recognised Jesus at the Breaking of the Bread.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo acio eerĩ makĩmeera maũndũ marĩa meekĩkĩte marĩ njĩra-inĩ, na ũrĩa maamenyire Jesũ hĩndĩ ĩrĩa eenyũrire mũgate.
36 While they were still talking about these things, Jesus himself stood among them, [and said “Peace be with you.” ]
O makĩaragia ũhoro ũcio, Jesũ akĩrũgama gatagatĩ kao akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Thayũ ũrogĩa na inyuĩ.”
37 In their terror and alarm they thought they saw a spirit,
Nao makĩhahũka na makĩmaka, magĩĩciiria atĩ nĩ ngoma moonaga.
38 but Jesus said to them: “Why are you so startled? And why do doubts arise in your minds?
Nake akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũratangĩka nĩkĩ, na nĩ kĩĩ gĩgũtũma mũgĩe na nganja meciiria-inĩ manyu?
39 Look at my hands and my feet, and you will know that it is I. Feel me, and look at me, for a spirit has not flesh and bones, as you see that I have.”
Ta rorai moko makwa na nyarĩrĩ ciakwa. Nĩ niĩ mwene! Huutiai muone; roho ndũrĩ nyama na mahĩndĩ, ta ũrĩa mũrona ndĩ nacio.”
40 [After saying this he showed them his hands and his feet.]
Aarĩkia kuuga ũguo, akĩmoonia moko make na nyarĩrĩ ciake.
41 While they were still unable to believe it all for very joy, and were wondering if it were true, Jesus said to them: “Have you anything here to eat?”
Nao magĩkorwo matarĩ maretĩkia nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa makenete na makagega. Nake akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũrĩ na kĩndũ gĩa kũrĩa?”
42 They handed him a piece of broiled fish,
Nao makĩmũnengera gĩcunjĩ gĩa thamaki hĩu.
43 and he took it and ate it before their eyes.
Nake agĩkĩoya, akĩrĩa makĩĩonagĩra.
44 “This is what I told you,” he said, “when I was still with you — that everything that had been written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms, must be fulfilled.”
Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ũũ nĩguo ndamwĩrire hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ndaarĩ na inyuĩ atĩ: Maũndũ mothe marĩa mandĩkĩtwo ũhoro wakwa Watho-inĩ wa Musa, na Maandĩko-inĩ ma Anabii, na Thaburi, no nginya mahingio.”
45 Then he enabled them to understand the meaning of the Scriptures, saying to them:
Hĩndĩ ĩyo akĩhingũra meciiria mao nĩguo mamenye Maandĩko.
46 “Scripture says that the Christ should suffer, and that he should rise again from the dead on the third day,
Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ũũ nĩguo kwandĩkĩtwo: Kristũ nĩakanyariirwo na ariũkio kuuma kũrĩ arĩa akuũ mũthenya wa gatatũ,
47 and that repentance for forgiveness of sins should be proclaimed on his authority to all the nations — beginning at Jerusalem.
naguo ũhoro wa kwĩrira na kũrekerwo kwa mehia ũkaahunjĩrio ndũrĩrĩ ciothe thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩake, wambĩrĩirie Jerusalemu.
48 You yourselves are to be witnesses to all this.
Inyuĩ mũrĩ aira a maũndũ macio.
49 And now I am myself about to send upon you that which my Father has promised. But you must remain in the city until you have been invested with power from above.”
Na rĩrĩ, nĩngũmũtũmĩra kĩrĩa Baba eranĩire; no ikarai thĩinĩ wa itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene nginya rĩrĩa mũkaaheo hinya kuuma Igũrũ.”
50 After this, Jesus led them out as far as Bethany, and there raised his hands and blessed them.
Agĩcooka akĩmatongoria kuuma kũu magĩthiĩ magĩkinya hakuhĩ na Bethania; akĩoya moko na igũrũ, akĩmarathima.
51 As he was in the act of blessing them, he left them [and was carried up into Heaven.]
Na o akĩmarathimaga, akĩmatiga, akĩiyũkio akĩambata igũrũ.
52 They [bowed to the ground before him and] returned to Jerusalem full of joy;
Nao makĩmũgooca na magĩcooka Jerusalemu makenete mũno.
53 and they were constantly in the Temple Courts, blessing God.
Nao nĩmaikaraga hekarũ-inĩ mahinda mothe makĩgoocaga Ngai.
