Luke 7
1 After He had finished teaching all these things in the hearing of the people, He went into Capernaum.
Yesu pakamaliriti kutakula vyoseri kwa wantu, kagenditi Kafarinaumu.
2 Here the servant of a certain Captain, a man dear to his master, was ill and at the point of death;
Mkulu gwa wanjagila miya yimu kaweriti na ntumini yakamfiriti nentu. Ntumintumi kaweriti kalwala tashitashi.
3 and the Captain, hearing about Jesus, sent to Him some of the Jewish Elders, begging Him to come and restore his servant to health.
Mkulu ulii pakapikaniriti visoweru vya Yesu, kawatumiti wazewi wa Shiyawudi kumluwa kizi kamuponiziyi ntumintumi gwakuwi.
4 And they, when they came to Jesus, earnestly entreated Him, pleading, "He deserves to have this favour granted him,
Wagenditi kwa Yesu na kumuhiga nentu pawalonga, “Muntu ayu kafiruwa gumtenderi shitwatila ashi.
5 for he loves our nation, and at his own expense he built our synagogue for us."
Kawafira wantu wetu na mweni katunyawira numba ya Mlungu.”
6 Then Jesus went with them. But when He was not far from the house, the Captain sent friends to Him with the message: "Sir, do not trouble to come. I am not worthy of having you come under my roof;
Su Yesu kagenda pamuhera na womberi. Pakaweriti pakwegera na ukaya kwa mkulu ulii, mkulu ulii kawatumiti waganja wakuwi wamgambiri Yesu, “Mtuwa naguligaziya hera. Gwenga gufiruwa ndiri kwingira mnumba mwangu,
7 and therefore I did not deem myself worthy to come to you. Only speak the word, and let my young man be cured.
na neni mona nfaa ndiri ata kwiza kwa gwenga. Kumbiti gutakuli hera, ntumini gwangu hakaweri mkomu.
8 For I too am a man obedient to authority, and have soldiers under me; and I say to one, 'Go,' and he goes; to another, 'Come,' and he comes; and to my slave, 'Do this or that,' and he does it."
Mana neni viraa namuntu gwa pasi pa ukulu, nanawa wamanjagila yanuwalongoziyiti. Panumgambira yumu, ‘Gugendi!’ Yomberi kagenda na panumgambira yumonga, ‘Gwizi!’ Yomberi kiza na panumgambira ntumintumi gwangu, ‘Gutendi shintu ashi!’ Nayomberi katenda.”
9 Jesus listened to the Captain's message and was astonished at him, and He turned and said to the crowd that followed Him, "I tell you that not even in Israel have I found faith like that."
Yesu pakapikaniriti hangu kalikangasha, su kaligalambukiriti lipinga lya wantu lyalimfatiti pakalonga, “Nankuwagambirani, mpata ndiri kuwona muntu kana njimiru gambira ayu Muisraeli!”
10 And the friends who had been sent, on returning to the house, found the servant in perfect health.
Wantu walii pawasokiti ukaya kwa Mkulu wamwoniti ntumintumi ulii kawera mkomu nakamu.
11 Shortly afterwards He went to a town called Nain, attended by His disciples and a great crowd of people.
Shakapanu, Yesu kagenditi lushi lwawalushema Naini, wafundwa wakuwi pamuhera na lipinga likulu lya wantu wagenda nayomberi.
12 And just as He reached the gate of the town, they happened to be bringing out for burial a dead man who was his mother's only son; and she was a widow; and a great number of the townspeople were with her.
Su pakaweriti pakwegera na mlyangu mkulu gwa Iushi, wantu wampapiti yakahowiti waweriti wankulawa kunja kwa Iushi. Yakahowiti kaweriti mwana gwagweka gwa mdala yakaweriti mkenja, na lipinga likulu lya wantu waweriti pamuhera nayomberi.
13 The Lord saw her, was moved with pity for her, and said to her, "Do not weep."
Mtuwa pakamwoniti mkenja ulii, kamwonera lusungu mdala ulii, kamgambiriti, “Nagulira.”
14 Then He went close and touched the bier, and the bearers halted. "Young man," He said, "I command you, wake!"
Shakapanu kalisegelera lijeneza lya yakahowiti na kulishinkula, wantu wawalipapiti wagoloka. Yesu kalonga, “Muntemba! Nukugambira gwimuki!”
15 The dead man sat up and began to speak; and He restored him to his mother.
Muntu ulii yakahowiti kalivaga, su kanja kuyowera. Yesu kamupa mawu gwakuwi.
16 All were awe-struck, and they gave glory to God--some saying, "A Prophet, a great Prophet, has risen up among us." Others said, "God has not forgotten His People."
Wantu woseri weniti lyoga wamkwisiti Mlungu pawalonga, “Mbuyi mkulu kalawira pakati petu. Mlungu kiza kuwalopoziya wantu wakuwi!”
17 And the report of what Jesus had done spread through the whole of Judaea and in all the surrounding districts.
Visoweru avi vya Yesu viyeniyiti mulushi loseri lwa Yudeya na lushi zya pakwegera.
18 John's disciples brought him an account of all these things;
Wafundwa wa Yohani wamgambiriti Yohani vitwatira avi vyoseri, nayomberi pakawashemiti kala awili wamu wa wafundwa wakuwi
19 so John called two of his disciples and sent them to the Lord. "Are you the Coming One?" he asked, "or is there another that we are to expect?"
kawatumiti kwa Mtuwa wakamkosiyi, “Hashi, gwenga ndo gwamweni yatumuhepera, ama tumuheperi gwingi?”
20 The men came to Jesus and said, "John the Baptist has sent us to you with this question: 'Are you the Coming One, or is there another that we are to expect?'"
Wafundwa walii wamgendiriti Yesu na kumgambira, “Yohani Mbatiza katutuma kwaku tukukosiyi handa gwenga ndo uliya yakatakuliti gwankwiza ama tumuheperi gwingi?”
21 He immediately cured many of diseases, severe pain, and evil spirits, and to many who were blind He gave the gift of sight.
Shipindi shiraa shilii Yesu kaweriti kankuwaponiziya wantu wavuwa weniti na malweri na wamonga waniti na washamshera wadoda na kuwapanana wanalwisi wavuwa kulola.
22 Then He answered the messengers, "Go and report to John what you have seen and heard. Blind men receive sight, the lame walk, lepers are purified, deaf persons hear, the dead are raised to life, the poor have the Good News proclaimed to them.
Su Yesu kawankula wantumintumi wa Yohani pakalonga, “Mgendi mwakamgambiri Yohani vyoseri vyamuviwoniti na kuvipikinira, wanalwisi wawona, wavibyeketu wagendagenda, woseri walii yawawera na ungumbula wapungwa, yawawera na majogu vinu wapikinira, wahowiti su wazyuka na Shisoweru Shiwagira shibwerwa kwa wahushu.
23 And blessed is every one who does not stumble and fall because of my claims."
Mbaka woseri walii wahera lyoga na neni.”
24 When John's messengers were gone, He proceeded to say to the multitude concerning John, "What did you go out into the Desert to gaze at? A reed waving in the wind?
Su wajumbi wa Yohani pawawukiti kala, Yesu kanja kuligambira lipinga kwajili ya Yohani, “Pamgenditi kumlola Yohani kushiwala mfira kulola shintu gaa? Mfiriti kuwona gambira mateti ntambu yagatikinyika na lihega? Ndala!
25 But what did you go out to see? A man wearing luxurious clothes? People who are gorgeously dressed and live in luxury are found in palaces.
Su mgenditi kumlola muntu gwa ntambu gaa? Hashi mliholiti Mgenditi kumlola muntu kavaliti nguwu ziherepa? Ndala, wantu yawavala nguwu ziherepa na kubojola vinoga noga vyaviwera muukulu!
26 But what did you go out to see? A Prophet? Aye, I tell you, and far more than a Prophet.
Su mung'ambiri, mgenditi kumlola muntu gwa ntambu gaa? Mgenditi kumlola mbuyi gwa Mlungu? Yina nakaka, tuwona gavuwa nentu kuliku mbuyi.
27 John is the man about whom it is written, 'See, I am sending My messenger before thy face, and he shall make ready thy way before thee.'
Yohani ayu ndo yumu yawamtakula mukulemba, kulonga, ‘Mlungu kalonga, hanumtumi mjumbi gwangu hakakulonguleri kukunyawira njira kwajili yaku.’”
28 "I tell you that among all of women born there is not one greater than John. Yet one who is of lower rank in the Kingdom of God is greater than he.
Yesu kamaliriti kwa kulonga, “Nukugambirani, Yohani ndo mkulu kuliku woseri yawalikaliti pasipanu. Kumbiti yakaweriti mdidini Muwufalumi wa Mlungu ndo mkulu kuliku Yohani.”
29 And all the people, including the tax-gatherers, when they listened to him upheld the righteousness of God, by being baptized with John's baptism.
Wantu woseri wampikaniriti. Wantu wavuwa asa watola kodi ndo wagajimiriti Malagaliru Mananagala ga Mlungu, awa ndo walii Yohani yakawabatiziti.
30 But the Pharisees and expounders of the Law have frustrated God's purpose as to their own lives, by refusing to be baptized.
Kumbiti Mafalisayu pamuhera na wafunda wa Malagaliru wagulemiti mpangu gwa Mlungu na wamlemiti Yohani kawabatizi.
31 "To what then shall I compare the men of the present generation, and what do they resemble?
Yesu kongera kulonga, “Vinu wantu wa mashaka aga walifana na shintu gaa?
32 They are like children sitting in the public square and calling out to one another, 'We have played the flute to you, and you have not danced: we have sung dirges, and you have not shown sorrow.'
Walifana gambira wana yawalivaga pahala pa guliwu. Shipinga shimu shishigambizisiya shamonga, ‘Tuviniti msambu gwa ndowa kumbiti mwenga mvina ndiri! Twimba lwimbu lwa kudaya kumbiti mlila ndiri!’
33 For John the Baptist has come eating no bread and drinking no wine, and you say, 'He has a demon!'
Yohani Mbatiza pakiziti, koyiti kuliya na kalanda ndiri divayi, kumbiti mwenga mlongiti, ‘Kana washamshera!’
34 The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, 'Look, there is a man who is overfond of eating and drinking--he is a friend of tax-gatherers and notorious sinners!'
Kiziti Mwana gwa Muntu, kaliyiti shiboga na kulanda, kumbiti mwenga mtakula, ‘Mumloli muntu ayu, Kana lwaliya na mkologeru, ganja gwa watola kodi na wanavidoda!’
35 But wisdom is justified by all who are truly wise."
Kumbiti luhala lwa Mlungu luwonekana kuwera lwa nakaka kwa wantu woseri yawalijimira.”
36 Now one of the Pharisees repeatedly invited Him to a meal at his house; so He entered the house and reclined at the table.
Mfalisayu yumu kamshemera Yesu walii shiboga sha pamihi pamuhera nayomberi na Yesu kingiriti mnumba mwa Mfarisayu na kulivaga pasi kuliya shiboga.
37 And there was a woman in the town who was a notorious sinner. Having learnt that Jesus was at table in the Pharisee's house she brought a flask of perfume,
Su palushi palii peniti na mdala yakaweriti na makaliru ga vidoda. Kapikaniriti handa Yesu kankuliya shiboga mnumba ya Falisayu, katoliti supa ya alabasta yayiweriti na utuli.
38 and, standing behind close to His feet, weeping, began to wet His feet with her tears; and with her hair she wiped the tears away again, while she lovingly kissed His feet and poured the perfume over them.
Kagenda kagoloka pakwegera pamagulu pa Yesu pakalila na masozi gakuwi gamtulukiriti Yesu pamagulu. Kapukuta magulu ga Yesu kwa vilii zyakuwi na kunonera magulu, kagaswaga utuli.
39 Noticing this, the Pharisee, His host, said to himself, "This man, if he were really a Prophet, would know who and what sort of person this woman is who is touching him--and would know that she is an immoral woman."
Mfalisayu pakawoniti hangu, kalitakuliti pakalihola mumoyu mwakuwi, “Handa muntu ayu nakaka ndo mbuyi gwa Mlungu, hakavimani handa mdala yakakushinkula ka gaa, hakavimani makaliru ga vidoda ntambu yakawera nagu!”
40 In answer to his thoughts Jesus said to him, "Simon, I have a word to say to you." "Rabbi, say on," he replied.
Yesu kamgambira Mfarisayu uliya, “Simoni, nana shintu shakukugambira.” Simoni kamwankula, “Yina mfunda gung'ambiri.”
41 "There were once two men in debt to one money-lender," said Jesus; "one owed him five hundred shillings and the other fifty.
Yesu kamgambira, “Kuweriti na wantu awili yawamkopiti muntu yakakopesha mpiya. Yumu kakopiti senti zivuwa na yumonga senti zivuwa ndiri.
42 But neither of them could pay anything; so he freely forgave them both. Tell me, then, which of them will love him most?"
Pawasinditi kulipa uwanda wawu, muntu uliya kawalekiziya woseri awili. Vinu pakati pa wantu awili walii, yoshi hakamfiri nentu muntu ayu yakawalekiziyiti?”
43 "I suppose," replied Simon, "the one to whom he forgave most." "You have judged rightly," Jesus rejoined.
Simoni kamwankula, “Nuvimana kuwera, ulii yawamlekiziyiti uwanda mkulu nentu” Yesu kamgambira, “Gutakula nweri.”
44 Then turning towards the woman He said to Simon, "Do you see this woman? I came into your house: you gave me no water for my feet; but she has made my feet wet with her tears, and then wiped the tears away with her hair.
Kamgalambukira mdala uliya na kumgambira Simoni, “Gumwona mdala ayu? Niziti pakaya paku, gunupa ndiri mashi gakunaviya magulu gangu, kumbiti mdala ayu kaganaviya magulu gangu kwa masozi gakuwi na kumpukuta kwa vilii zyakuwi.
45 No kiss did you give me; but she from the moment I came in has not left off tenderly kissing my feet.
Gwenga gunamsiya ndiri kwa kunonera, kumbiti mdala ayu kwanjira paningiliti kaweriti pakanonera magulu gangu.
46 No oil did you pour even on my head; but she has poured perfume upon my feet.
Gwenga gunswagaziya ndiri lipaki mumtuwi mwangu, kumbiti mdala ayu kagapakaziya magulu gangu kwa utuli.
47 This is the reason why I tell you that her sins, her many sins, are forgiven--because she has loved much; but he who is forgiven little, loves little."
Su nukugambira, kwa kufira kwakuwi kukulu kulanguziyiti nakaka kuwera vidoda vivuwa vyakaweriti navyi vilekiziwa. Kumbiti ulii yakalekiziwa padidini kalanguziya kufira padidini hera.”
48 And He said to her, "Your sins are forgiven."
Su Yesu kamgambira mdala uliya, “Gulekiziwa vidoda vyaku.”
49 Then the other guests began to say to themselves, "Who can this man be who even forgives sins?"
Wantu wamonga yawaweriti walivaga pameza wanjiti kulitakuliziyana weni pawalonga, “Ayu gaa yakaweza kulekiziya vidoda?”
50 But He said to the woman, "Your faith has cured you: go, and be at peace."
Kumbiti Yesu kamgambira mdala uliya, “Kujimira kwaku kukulopoziya, gugendi kwa ponga.”
