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.
Mapema sana siku ya kwanza ya juma, walikuja kaburini, wakileta manukato ambayo walikuwa wameyaandaa.
2 They found that the stone had been rolled away from the tomb;
Wakakuta jiwe limevingirishwa mbali na kaburi.
3 and, on going into it, they could not find the body [of the Lord Jesus].
Wakaingia ndani, lakini hawakuukuta mwili wa Bwana Yesu.
4 While they were at a loss to account for this, all at once two men stood beside them, in dazzling clothing.
Ilitokea kwamba, wakati wamechanganyikiwa kuhusu hili, ghafla, watu wawili walisimama katikati yao wamevaa mavazi ya kung'aa.
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?
Wanawake wakiwa wamejaa hofu na wakiinamisha nyuso zao chini, wakawaambia wanawake, “Kwanini mnamtafuta aliye hai miongoni mwa wafu?
6 [He is not here; but he has risen.] Remember how he spoke to you before he left Galilee —
Hayupo hapa, ila amefufuka! Kumbukeni alivyosema nanyi alipokuwa angali Galilaya,
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.”
akisema kwamba Mwana wa Adamu lazima atolewe kwenye mikono ya watu wenye dhambi na asulubishwe, na siku ya tatu, afufuke tena.”
8 Then they remembered the words of Jesus,
Wale wanawake wakakumbuka maneno yake,
9 and, on returning from the tomb, they told all this to the Eleven and to all the rest.
na wakarudi kutoka kaburini na wakawaambia mambo haya yote wale kumi na moja na wengine wote.
10 There were Mary of Magdala, and Joanna, and Mary, the mother of James. The other women, too, spoke about this to the Apostles.
Basi Maria Magdalena, Joana, Maria mama wa Yakobo, na wanawake wengine pamoja nao wakatoa taarifa hizi kwa mitume.
11 What they said seemed to the Apostles mere nonsense, and they did not believe them.
Lakini ujumbe huu ukaonekana kama mzaha tu kwa mitume, na hawakuwaamini wale wanawake.
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.]
Hata hivyo Petro aliamka, na akakimbia kuelekea kaburini, na akichungulia na kuangalia ndani, aliona sanda peke yake. Petro kisha akaondoka akaenda nyumbani kwake, akistaajabu nini ambacho kimetokea.
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 tazama, wawili miongoni mwao walikuwa wakienda siku hiyo hiyo katika kijiji kimoja kiitwacho Emmau, ambacho kilikuwa maili sitini kutoka Yerusalemu.
14 talking together, as they went, about all that had just taken place.
Wakajadiliana wao kwa wao kuhusu mambo yote yaliyotokea.
15 While they were talking about these things and discussing them, Jesus himself came up and went on their way with them;
Ikatokea kwamba, wakati walipokuwa wakijadiliana na kuulizana maswali, Yesu akasogea karibu akaambatana nao.
16 but their eyes were blinded so that they could not recognise him.
Lakini macho yao yalizuiliwa katika kumtambua yeye.
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,
Yesu akawaambia, “Nini ambacho ninyi wawili mnakiongelea wakati mnatembea?” Wakasimama pale wakionekana na huzuni.
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?”
Mmoja wao, jina lake Cleopa, akamjibu, “Je wewe ni mtu pekee hapa Yerusalemu ambaye hajui mambo yaliyotokea huko siku hizi?”
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;
Yesu akawaambia, “Mambo gani?” Wakamjibu, “Mambo kuhusu Yesu Mnazareti, ambaye alikuwa nabii, muweza katika matendo na maneno mbele za Mungu na watu wote.
20 and how the Chief Priests and our leading men gave him up to be sentenced to death, and afterwards crucified him.
Na kwa jinsi ambayo wakuu wa makuhani na viongozi wetu walivyomtoa kuhukumiwa kifo na kumsulubisha.
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.
Lakini tulitumaini kwamba yeye ndiye atakaye waweka huru Israeli. Ndiyo, mbali na haya yote, sasa ni siku ya tatu tangu mambo haya yatokee.
22 And what is more, some of the women among us have greatly astonished us. They went to the tomb at daybreak
Lakini pia, baadhi ya wanawake kutoka katika kundi letu walitushangaza, baada ya kuwapo kaburini asubuhi na mapema.
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.
Walipoukosa mwili wake, wakaja, wakisema kwamba waliona pia maono ya malaika waliosema kwamba yu hai.
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.”
Baadhi ya wanaume ambao walikuwa pamoja nasi walienda kaburini, na kukuta ni kama vile wanawake walivyosema. Lakini hawakumuona yeye.”
25 Then Jesus said to them: “O foolish men, slow to accept all that the Prophets have said!
Yesu akawaambia, “Ninyi watu wajinga na wenye mioyo mizito ya kuamini yote ambayo manabii wamesema!
26 Was not the Christ bound to undergo this suffering before entering upon his Glory?”
Je haikuwa lazima Yesu kuteseka kwa mambo haya, na kuingia katika utukufu wake?”
27 Then, beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them all through the Scriptures the passages that referred to himself.
Kisha kuanzia kutoka kwa Musa na manabii wote, Yesu akawatafsiria mambo yanayomuhusu yeye katika maandiko yote.
28 When they got near the village to which they were walking, Jesus appeared to be going further;
Walipokaribia kile kijiji, huko walikokuwa wakienda, Yesu akafanya kana kwamba anaendelea mbele.
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.
Lakini walimlazimisha, wakisema, “Kaa pamoja nasi, maana inaelekea jioni na siku ni kama imeisha.” Hivyo Yesu akaingia kwenda kukaa 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.
Ilitokea kwamba, wakati amekaa nao kula, alichukua mkate, akaubariki, na kuuvunja, akawapa.
31 Then their eyes were opened and they recognised him; but he disappeared from their sight.
Kisha macho yao yakafunguliwa, wakamjua, na akatoweka ghafla mbele ya macho yao.
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!”
Wakasemezana wao kwa wao, “Hivi mioyo yetu haikuwaka ndani yetu, wakati alipoongea nasi njiani, wakati alipotufungulia maandiko?”
33 Then they immediately got up and returned to Jerusalem, where they found the Eleven and their companions all together,
Wakanyanyuka saa hiyo hiyo, na kurudi Yerusalemu. Wakawakuta wale kumi na mmoja wamekusanyika pamoja, na wale waliokuwa pamoja nao,
34 who told them that the Master had really risen, and had appeared to Simon.
wakisema, “Bwana amefufuka kwelikweli, na amemtokea Simoni.”
35 So they also related what had happened during their walk, and how they had recognised Jesus at the Breaking of the Bread.
Hivyo wakawaambia mambo yaliyotokea njiani, na namna Yesu alivyodhihirishwa kwao katika kuumega mkate.
36 While they were still talking about these things, Jesus himself stood among them, [and said “Peace be with you.” ]
Wakati wakiongea mambo hayo, Yesu mwenyewe alisimama katikati yao, na akawaambia, “Amani iwe kwenu.”
37 In their terror and alarm they thought they saw a spirit,
Lakini waliogopa na kujawa na hofu, na wakafikiri kwamba waliona roho.
38 but Jesus said to them: “Why are you so startled? And why do doubts arise in your minds?
Yesu akawaambia, Kwanini mnafadhaika? Kwanini maswali yanainuka mioyoni mwenu?
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.”
Angalieni mikono yangu na miguu yangu, kwamba ni mimi mwenyewe. Niguseni na muone. Kwa maana roho haina nyama na mifupa, kama mnionavyo mimi kuwa navyo.”
40 [After saying this he showed them his hands and his feet.]
Alipokwisha kusema hivi, akawaonyesha mikono yake na miguu yake.
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?”
Walipokuwa bado na furaha iliyochanganyikana na kutokuamini, na kustaajabu, Yesu akawaambia, “Je mna kitu chochote cha kula?”
42 They handed him a piece of broiled fish,
Wakampa kipande cha samaki aliyechomwa.
43 and he took it and ate it before their eyes.
Yesu akakichukua, na kukila mbele yao.
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.”
Akawaambia, “Nilipokuwa nanyi, niliwaambia kwamba yote yalioandikwa kwenye sheria ya Musa na manabii na Zaburi lazima yatimilike.”
45 Then he enabled them to understand the meaning of the Scriptures, saying to them:
Kisha akafungua akili zao, kwamba waweze kuyaelewa maandiko.
46 “Scripture says that the Christ should suffer, and that he should rise again from the dead on the third day,
Akawaambia, “Kwamba imeandikwa, Kristo lazima ateseke, na kufufuka tena kutoka katika wafu siku ya tatu.
47 and that repentance for forgiveness of sins should be proclaimed on his authority to all the nations — beginning at Jerusalem.
Na toba na msamaha wa dhambi lazima ihubiriwe kwa jina lake kwa mataifa yote, kuanzia kutokea Yerusalemu.
48 You yourselves are to be witnesses to all this.
Ninyi ni mashahidi wa mambo haya.
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.”
Angalia, nawapelekea ahadi ya Baba yangu juu yenu. Lakini subirini hapa jijini, mpaka mtakapovishwa nguvu kutoka juu.
50 After this, Jesus led them out as far as Bethany, and there raised his hands and blessed them.
Kisha Yesu akawaongoza nje mpaka walipokaribia Bethania. Akainua mikono yake juu, na akawabariki.
51 As he was in the act of blessing them, he left them [and was carried up into Heaven.]
Ikatokea kwamba, wakati alipokuwa akiwabariki, aliwaacha na akabebwa juu kuelekea mbinguni.
52 They [bowed to the ground before him and] returned to Jerusalem full of joy;
Basi wakamwabudu, na kurudi Yerusalemu na furaha kuu.
53 and they were constantly in the Temple Courts, blessing God.
Waliendelea kuwepo hekaluni, wakimbariki Mungu.
