Luke 13
1 Just at that time people came to tell Him about the Galilaeans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.
Kuli eecho chiindi, bamwi bantu aawo bakamwaambila aatala abana Galilii aabo balaabulowa Payilate mbwakavwaangania azipayizyo zyabo.
2 "Do you suppose," He asked in reply, "that those Galilaeans were worse sinners than the mass of the Galilaeans, because this happened to them?
Jesu waskasandula wati kulimbabo, “Muyeeya kuti bana Galilii aaba mbibakali basizibi loko kwiinda kwiinda bamwi bana Galili na nkaambo kakupenzegwa kwabo ooku? Peepe, ndamwaambila.
3 I tell you, certainly not. On the contrary, if you are not penitent you will all perish as they did.
Pesi kuti temwasanduka moonse muyofwidilila munzila njiyeeyo.
4 Or those eighteen on whom the tower at Siloam fell, do you suppose they had failed in their duty more than all the rest of the people who live in Jerusalem?
Nakuti aabo bantu balikumi lilamusanu abatatu baku Silowamu aabo bakawidwa bulambo bulamfu bwabajaya, muyeeya kuti bakali basizibi loko kwiinda bamwi baalumi mu Jelusalema?
5 I tell you, certainly not. On the contrary, if you do not repent you will all perish just as they did."
Peepe. Ndamwaambila. Pesi kuti temwasanduka, moonse muyoonyonyooka.”
6 And He gave them the following parable. "A man," He said, "who had a fig-tree growing in his garden came to look for fruit on it and could find none.
Jesu wakaluula chikozyanisyo eechi, “Umwi muntu wakaganka mukuyu muchilili chakwe chamasansa mpawo wakaboola kuzoolanga muchelo alinguwo pesi taakwe takawujana pe.
7 So he said to the gardener, "'See, this is the third year I have come to look for fruit on this fig-tree and cannot find any. Cut it down. Why should so much ground be actually wasted?'
Mwaalumi wakati kuli sichilili, 'Langa, ndakasika minyaka iitatu nkelanga muchelo kumukuyu ooyu peesi taakwe nindakawujana pe. Ugonke. Nkaambo nzi kuuleka kunyonyoona nyika?
8 "But the gardener pleaded, "'Leave it, Sir, this year also, till I have dug round it and manured it.
Sichilili wakasandula wati, 'Uleke uuno munyaka ndiwusyide mumbali ndiwubike mbolezi.
9 If after that it bears fruit, well and good; if it does not, then you shall cut it down.'"
Kuti wazozyala muchelo mumnyaka uuboola sambubo, pesi kuti kuutazyede lubo, uzowugonka!”
10 Once He was teaching on the Sabbath in one of the synagogues
Lino Jesu wakalikuyiisya kulichimwi chikombelo mubuzuba bwa Sabata.
11 where a woman was present who for eighteen years had been a confirmed invalid: she was bent double, and was unable to lift herself to her full height.
Amubone, kwali mwanakazi wakali amuuya mubi wakubula nguzu kwamyaaka kkumi lilamusanu ayitatu alimwi wakali vundeme nkaambo taakali kukonzya pe kwiimikila kabotu.
12 But Jesus saw her, and calling to her, He said to her, "Woman, you are free from your weakness."
Aawo Jesu naakamubona, wakamwiita wati, “Yoomwanakazi, waponesegwa kuchilwazi chako chakubula nguzu.”
13 And He put His hands on her, and she immediately stood upright and began to give glory to God.
Wakabikka maanza aakwe aalinguwe mpawaawo wakavundamuka akwiima kabotu mpawo wakalumbayi Leza.
14 Then the Warden of the Synagogue, indignant that Jesus had cured her on a Sabbath, said to the crowd, "There are six days in the week on which people ought to work. On those days therefore come and get yourselves cured, and not on the Sabbath day."
Pesi mweendelezyi wachikombelo wakanyema nkaambo Jesu wakamuponia mubuzuba bwa Sabata. Mpawo mweendelezi wakasandula akwaambila nkau yabantu kuti, “Kuli mazuba musanu alimwi ayelede kubeleka mulingawo. Amusike musikwe mumazuba aayo pepe mubuzuba bwa Sabata.”
15 But the Lord's reply to him was, "Hypocrites, does not each of you on the Sabbath untie his bullock or his ass from the stall and lead him to water?
Mwami wakamusandula wati, “Nubawupuupi! Tawo na uunga waangununa donki na ng'ombe yakwe kuzwa mubbondo akwiitola kuyonywa maanzi mubuzuba bwa Sabata?
16 And this woman, daughter of Abraham as she is, whom Satan had bound for no less than eighteen years, was she not to be loosed from this chain because it is the Sabbath day?"
Ooyu alakwe mwana wa Abbulahamu, ooyo Satani ngwaakangide kwaminyaka iilikumi lilamusanu ayitatu, tayelede na kuti bwaange bwakwe bwaangununwe mubuzuba bwa Sabata
17 When He had said this, all His opponents were ashamed, while the whole multitude was delighted at the many glorious things continually done by Him.
Naakali kwaamba zintu eezi, boonse aabo bakali kukazyania aawe bakawusa, pesi nkamu yabantu yakabotela aatala azyoonse zibotu nzyakachita
18 This prompted Him to say, "What is the Kingdom of God like? and to what shall I compare it?
Mpawo Jesu wakati, “Bwami bwa Leza buli biyeni, alubo ndikonzya lkubukozyanisya anyamaanzi?
19 It is like a mustard seed which a man drops into the soil in his garden, and it grows and becomes a tree in whose branches the birds roost."
Bulimbuli nseke yamusitadi eeyo muntu njaakabweza wakwiiminza muchilili chakwe, yakakomena yaba musamu mupati, mpawo tuyuni twayaka zizubo zyato amitabi yawo.”
20 And again He said, "To what shall I compare the Kingdom of God?
Alubo wakati, “Niinzi nchindikonzya kukozyanisya bwami bwa Leza?
21 It is like yeast which a woman takes and buries in a bushel of flour, to work there till the whole is leavened."
Bukozyenie aabusweezyo bwakabwezegwa amwanakazi wabuvwelengania mumyeelwe iitatu yabusu, mpawo bwafuta boonse.”
22 He was passing through town after town and village after village, steadily proceeding towards Jerusalem,
Mpawo Jesu waswayila madolopo amyuunzi akuyabubayiisya we kayabutozya ku Jelusalema.
23 when some one asked Him, "Sir, are there but few who are to be saved?"
Umwi wakati kulinguwe, “Mwami, mbache biyo na beelede kuyofutulwa?” Wakati kulimbabo,
24 "Strain every nerve to force your way in through the narrow gate," He answered; "for multitudes, I tell you, will endeavour to find a way in and will not succeed.
“Muzumanane kuyoonjila mukalyango kamanikide, nkaambo ndamwaambila nywebo, biingi bayoyezya kunjila pesi tabakoyokonzya pe.
25 As soon as the Master of the house shall have risen and shut the door, and you have begun to stand outside and knock at the door and say, "'Sir, open the door for us' --"'I do not know you,' He answers; 'you are no friends of mine.'
Naakubuka akujala mulyango mwani ng'anda, aawo muyoyimikila aanze kamukonkomona mulyango kamuti, 'Mwami, Mwami, tujulile tunjile.' Uyoomusandula akatedi kulondinywe, 'Nsimwizi pe nakuti mwazwida kuli.'
26 "Then you will plead, "'We have eaten and drunk in your company and you have taught in our streets.'
Mpawo muyosandula kamuti, 'Twakalya akunywa kunembo lyako, mpawo wakayiisya mumigwagwa yesu.'
27 "But He will reply, "'I tell you that you are no friends of mine. Begone from me, all of you, wrongdoers that you are.'
Pesi we uyoosandula kati, 'Ndati kulindinywe, nsimwizi pe nkumuzwa. Amuzwe kulindime nywebo nobasizibi!'
28 "There will be the weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the Prophets in the Kingdom of God, and yourselves being driven far away.
Kuyooba kulila akuluma ntwino aawo nimuyoobona Abbulahamu, Ayizeki, Jakobo abamwi boonse basinsimi mubwami bwa Leza, pesi nywe - muyosowelwa aanze.
29 They will come from east and west, from north and south, and will sit down at the banquet in the Kingdom of God.
Bayoozwa kumbo, kujwe, kumusanza akunyika bazokkale atafula mubwami bwa Leza.
30 And I tell you that some now last will then be first, and some now first will then be last."
Mpawo amuchizibe eechi, bakumamanino mbibayoba bakusanguna, mpawo bakusanguna bayooba bakumamanino.”
31 Just at that time there came some Pharisees who warned Him, saying, "Leave this place and continue your journey; Herod means to kill you."
Musule buniini achiindi eecho, bamwi ba Falisi bakasika bati kulinguwe, “Chija uzwe omuno uyende nkaambo Heloda uyanda kukujaya.”
32 "Go," He replied, "and take this message to that fox: "'See, to-day and to-morrow I am driving out demons and effecting cures, and on the third day I finish my course.'
Jesu wakati, “Amukamwaambili ooyo mwaalumi kuti, 'Langa, ndiyabugwisya myuuya mibi akusilika bachiswa sunu ajuunza mpawo zoona ndinooli ndasisya makanze aangu.'
33 "Yet I must continue my journey to-day and to-morrow and the day following; for it is not conceivable that a Prophet should perish outside of Jerusalem.
Amuliili nzila, kuleelede kuti ndiinkile kunembo sunu, juunza, azoona nkaambo tazitambuliki pe kujaya munsimi katamo mu Jelusalema.
34 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou who murderest the Prophets and stonest those who have been sent to thee, how often have I desired to gather thy children just as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you would not come!
Jelusalema, Jelusama, webo nojaya basinsimi akutulula aabo bakakutuma. Ndiyandisya loko kubungania bana bako mbuli nseke mbiifukatila bana bayo munsi lyamababa aayo, pesi webo tewakaziyanda pe eezi.
35 See, your house is left to you. But I tell you that you will never see me again until you say, 'Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!'"
Langa, ng'anda yako yasiigwa. Ndati kulinduwe, tokoyondibona pe mane ukatedi, “Ulaachoolwe ooyo uuza muzina lya Mwami.'”
