< Luke 8 >
1 Shortly after this He visited town after town, and village after village, proclaiming His Message and telling the Good News of the Kingdom of God. The Twelve were with Him,
Pagamasile gelego, Che Yesu ŵapite mu misi ni misinda achilalichilaga Ngani Jambone ja Umwenye wa Akunnungu. Ni ŵakulijiganya kumi na mbili ŵala ŵalongene nawo.
2 and certain women whom He had delivered from evil spirits and various diseases--Mary of Magdala, out of whom seven demons had come,
Nipele achakongwe ŵane ŵaŵaakopwesye masoka ni kwalamya ilwele ŵalongene nawo. Ŵelewo ni ŵanya che Maliamu jwa musi wa ku Magidala jwati Che Yesu ŵankopwesye masoka saba,
3 and Joanna the wife of Chuza, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many other women, all of whom contributed to the support of Jesus and His Apostles.
ni che Joana ŵankwawo che Kusa, che Kusa ŵaliji jwakulindilila nyuumba ji che Helode ni che Susana ni ŵane ŵajinji. Ŵele achakongwe wo ŵaliji nkwakamusya Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao kwa ipanje yao achinsyene.
4 And when a great crowd was assembling, and was receiving additions from one town after another, He spoke a parable to them.
Mpingo wa ŵandu ŵaliji uninkusongangana ni ŵandu kukopochela misi jina jose ŵaliji nkwaichilila Che Yesu. Nombewo ŵatanjile achi chitagu chi.
5 "The sower," He said, "goes out to sow his seed; and as he sows, some of the seed falls by the way-side, and is trodden upon, or the birds of the air come and peck it up.
“Mundu jwakulima ŵajawile kukumisa mbeju syakwe. Paŵamisaga sine syapatuchile mwitala ni uŵajesile mwitala mo ŵasiliŵete ni ijuni yalile.
6 Another part drops upon the rock, and after growing up it withers away for want of moisture.
Mbeju sine syapatuchile palitaka lyalili ni maganga ni pasyamesile syanyasile ligongo litaka nganilikola meesi.
7 Another part falls among the thorns, and the thorns grow up with it and stifle it.
Sine syapatuchile pasikati miiŵa. Jele miiŵa jo jamesile pamo nasyo ni kusiŵijikanya.
8 But some of the seed falls into good ground, and grows up and yields a return of a hundred for one." While thus speaking, He cried aloud and said, "Listen, every one who has ears to listen with!"
Mbeju sine syapatuchile palitaka lyambone ni syamesile ni kusogola ni jili jose jasogwele pwela.” Che Yesu paŵamalisisye gelego, ŵanyanyisye, “Ŵaali ni mapikanilo, gakupilikana apilikane!”
9 The disciples proceeded to ask Him what this parable meant.
Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵausisye Che Yesu malumbo ga chele chitagu cho.
10 "To you," He replied, "it is granted to know the secrets of the Kingdom of God; but all others are taught by parables, in order that they may see and yet not see, and may hear and yet not understand.
Nombe ŵajanjile, “Ŵanyamwe mpegwile kumanyilila yantemela ya umwenye wa Akunnungu, nambo kwa ŵanewo ngwamba, ŵelewo akusalilwa kwa itagu kuti pakulola anakombole kulola ni pakupilikana anaimanyilile.
11 The meaning of the parable is as follows. The seed is God's Message.
“Nipele, malumbo ga chitagu chi ni aga, Mbeju lili liloŵe lya Akunnungu.
12 Those by the way-side are those who have heard, and then the Devil comes and carries away the Message from their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.
Chachikukopochela kwa mbeju sisyapatuchile mwitala sila chikulandana ni chitagu cha ŵandu ŵakulipilikana liloŵe lya Akunnungu ni Shetani akwika ni kulityosya mu mitima jao kuti akakulupilila ni kukulupuswa.
13 Those on the rock are the people who on hearing the Message receive it joyfully; but they have no root: for a time they believe, but when trial comes they fall away.
Nombe chachikukopochela kwa mbeju sisyapatuchile palwala sila, chikulandana ni chitagu cha ŵandu ŵakupilikana liloŵe lya Akunnungu akulipochela kwa sangalala. Nambo mpela asila mbeju sila, ŵele ŵanduwo ngakukola michiga pakuŵa akukulupilila katema kanandi ni pakulinjikwa akulekanga kulupilila.
14 That which fell among the thorns means those who have heard, but as they go on their way, the Message is stifled by the anxieties, wealth and gaieties of time, and they yield nothing in perfection.
Sooni chachikukopochela kwa mbeju sisyapatuchile pa miiŵa sila chikulandana ni chitagu cha ŵandu ŵakupilikana liloŵe lya Akunnungu, nambo mbolembole akuŵijikanywa ni lipamba ni ipanje ni upoche wa pachilambo. Ŵele ŵandu wo isogosi yao ngaikukomala.
15 But as for that in the good ground, it means those who, having listened to the Message with open minds and in a right spirit, hold it fast, and patiently yield a return.
Ni chachikukopochela kwa mbeju sisyapatuchile pa chaajila sila chikulandana ni chitagu cha ŵandu ŵakupilikana liloŵe lya Akunnungu ni kulikamulisya kwa ntima wambone ni wakukunda. Ŵandu wo akupililila ni kumbesi kusogola isogosi yambone.
16 "When any one lights a lamp, he does not cover it with a vessel or hide it under a couch; he puts it on a lampstand, that people who enter the room may see the light.
“Ŵandu ngakupamba lumuli ni kuluunichila ni lulo pane kuluŵika kuusi chindanda. Nambo akuluŵika pachanya chindu chakuŵichila lumuli kuti ŵakwinjila mwelemo akombole kulola lulanga lwakwe.
17 There is nothing hidden, which shall not be openly seen; nor anything secret, which shall not be known and come into the light of day.
“Chachilichose chachisisikwe, chichiŵichikwe pakulanguka ni chachilichose cheunichile chichiŵe cheunukulikwe ni kuŵichikwa pakulanguka.
18 Be careful, therefore, how you hear; for whoever has anything, to him more shall be given, and whoever has nothing, even that which he thinks he has shall be taken away from him."
“Nipele nlilolechesye ni upilikane wenu, pakuŵa jwakwete chindu chajonjechekwe nambo jwanganakola chindu, chasumulwe atamuno kanandi chakuchiganisya kuti akwete.”
19 Then came to Him His mother and His brothers, but could not get near Him for the crowd.
Pelepo achikulugwe ni achapwakwe Che Yesu ŵajawile kukwalola, nambo nganakombola kwaŵandichila ligongo lya winji wa ŵandu.
20 But He was told, "Your mother and brothers are standing on the edge of the crowd, and want to see you."
Mundu jumo ŵansalile Che Yesu kuti, “Achikulu ŵenu ni achapwenu alinji paasa, akusaka kunnola.”
21 "My mother and my brothers," He replied, "are these who hear God's Message and obey it."
Nambo Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵandu wose, “Achikulu ŵangu ni achapwanga ali ŵeŵala ŵakupilikana liloŵe lya Akunnungu ni kulikamula.”
22 One day He went on board a boat--both He and his disciples; and He said to them, "Let us cross over to the other side of the Lake." So they set sail.
Sooni lyuŵa limo Che Yesu ŵajinjile mu ngalaŵa ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao, ŵaasalile, “Tujaule peesi litanda.” Nipele, ŵatandite ulendo.
23 During the passage He fell asleep, and there came down a squall of wind on the Lake, so that the boat began to fill and they were in deadly peril.
Paŵaliji mu ngalaŵa Che Yesu ŵaliji ni lugono ni ŵagonile. Nipele jatandite kupuga mbungo jekulungwa ni gatandite kwinjila meesi mu ngalaŵa ni ŵaliji mu chakogoya.
24 So they came and woke Him, crying, "Rabbi, Rabbi, we are drowning." Then He roused Himself and rebuked the wind and the surging of the water, and they ceased and there was a calm.
Ŵakulijiganya ŵala ŵajaulile Che Yesu kukwajimusya achitiji, “Ambuje, Ambuje! Tulinkwasika!” Che Yesu ŵajimwiche ni kujikalipila mbungo jekulungwa ni matumbela ga meesi, yose yamyalele ni kwaliji kutulele.
25 "Where is your faith?" He asked them. But they were filled with terror and amazement, and said to one another, "Who then is this? for He gives orders both to wind and waves, and they obey Him."
Ni sooni ŵaasalile, “Chikulupi chenu chili kwapi?” Nambo ŵanyawo ŵasimosile ni kamulwa ni lipamba ni kusalilana jwine ni jwine, “Mundu ju ali jwanti uli? Pakuŵa akujilamula namuno mbungo jekulungwa ni matumbela ga meesi ni yose ikwapilikanila.”
26 Then they put in to shore in the country of the Gerasenes, which lies opposite to Galilee.
Che Yesu pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵajendelechele ni ulendo ni ŵaiche ku mbwani ja chilambo cha Ŵagelasi chachili peesi litanda lyaliŵandikene ni ku Galilaya.
27 Here, on landing, He was met by one of the townsmen who was possessed by demons--for a long time he had not put on any garment, nor did he live in a house, but in the tombs.
Che Yesu paŵatulwiche mu ngalaŵa ni kuliŵata mbwani, mundu jumo jwa musi ula juŵaliji ni masoka ŵannyichilile. Nambo mundu jo kwa moŵa gamajinji nganatakulaga namose nganatamaga mu nyuumba nambo ŵatamaga mu mbugu sya kusichila ŵandu.
28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before Him, and said in a loud voice, "What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of God Most High? Do not torture me, I beseech you."
Paŵammweni Che Yesu ŵalisile, ŵaligwisisye paasi paujo pao ni kunyanyisya, “Mmwejo, Che Yesu Mwana jwa Akunnungu Ŵakulu, nkusaka ichichi kwangune? Ngunchondelela ngasimulagasya!”
29 For already He had been commanding the foul spirit to come out of the man. For many a time it had seized and held him, and they had repeatedly put him in chains and fetters and kept guard over him, but he used to break the chains to pieces, and, impelled by the demon, to escape into the Desert.
Ŵaŵechete yeleyo pakuŵa Che Yesu ŵalikalipile lisoka linkopoche mundu jo. Lyele lisoka lyo lyaliji nkunkamula mundu jo kaŵilikaŵili, natamuno ŵandu ŵambisile nkati ni kwataŵilisya makono ni makongolo ni unyolo ni magwedegwede, nambo ŵakutulaga nyolo syo ni magwedegwede ni lisoka lyo lyanjausyaga mwipululu.
30 "What is your name?" Jesus asked him. "Legion," he replied--because a great number of demons had entered into him;
Che Yesu ŵammusisye, “Liina lyenu ŵaani?” Ŵajanjile, “Liina lyangu lili ‘Mpingo.’” Ŵajanjile yeleyo pakuŵa ŵaliji ni masoka gamajinji.
31 and they besought Him not to command them to be gone into the Bottomless Pit. (Abyssos )
Gele masoka go gaachondelele kuti ngasiŵajausya mu lisimbo lyangali mbesi. (Abyssos )
32 Now there was a great herd of swine there feeding on the hill-side; and the demons begged Him to give them leave to go into them, and He gave them leave.
Pele paliji ni mpingo wekulungwa wa maguluŵe galiji ganinkulya mungulugulu chitumbi. Masoka gala gaachondelele Che Yesu gajaule gakagajinjile maguluŵe. Nombe Che Yesu ŵagalesile gajaule.
33 The demons came out of the man and left him, and entered into the swine; and the herd rushed violently over the cliff into the Lake and were drowned.
Masoka gankopweche mundu jo ni gajinjile mu maguluŵe ni mpingo wose wa maguluŵe waselelechele mu litanda lyalili chiŵandi ni chitumbi ni kutiŵila mu meesi.
34 The swineherds, seeing what had happened, fled and reported it both in town and country;
Ŵakuchinga ŵala paŵaiweni yose yaitendekwe yo ŵautwiche, ŵajawile kukwasalila ŵandu ngani syo mu migunda ni misi.
35 whereupon the people came out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus, and they found the man from whom the demons had gone out sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind; and they were terrified.
Ŵandu ŵaiche kukulola iyakopochele. Ni ŵajaulile Che Yesu, ŵansimene mundu jugantyosile masoka jo ali atemi chiŵandi ni makongolo ga Che Yesu, ali awasile nguo ni ali ni lunda lwambone, nombewo ŵajogwepenje.
36 And those who had seen it told them how the demoniac was cured.
Ŵandu uŵalolite jele ngani jininkukopochela ŵaasalile ŵanyawo iŵatite pakulamwa mundu jwakamwilwe ni masoka jo.
37 Then the whole population of the Gerasenes and of the adjacent districts begged Him to depart from them; for their terror was great. So He went on board and returned.
Ni ŵandu wose ŵa chilambo cha ku Gelasi chila ŵakamwilwe ni lipamba lyekulungwa. Nipele ŵaachondelele Che Yesu atyoche, nombe Che Yesu ŵakwesile sooni mu ngalaŵa ni kwaula.
38 But the man from whom the demons had gone out earnestly asked permission to go with Him; but He sent him away.
Mundu jugankopweche masoka jula ŵaachondelele Che Yesu kuti alongane nawo. Nambo Che Yesu ŵanlanjile, ni ŵansalile,
39 "Return home," He said, "and tell there all that God has done for you." So he went and published through the whole town all that Jesus had done for him.
“Mmuje kumusi nkasale yose yatesile Akunnungu kukwenu.” Nipele, mundu jula ŵajawile ni kwenesya mu musi wose indu yose iŵapanganyichiswe ni Che Yesu.
40 Now when Jesus was returning, the people gave Him a warm welcome; for they had all been looking out for Him.
Che Yesu paŵajombweche litanda ni kwaula kwine, mpingo wa ŵandu ŵapochele, pakuŵa wose ŵaliji nkwalindilila.
41 Just then there came a man named Jair, a Warden of the Synagogue, who threw himself at the feet of Jesus, and entreated Him to come to his house;
Pelepo ŵaiche mundu jumo liina lyakwe che Yailo, juŵaliji chilongola jwa nyuumba ja kupopelela, ŵatindiŵele pa makongolo ga Che Yesu ni ŵaachondelele kuti ajaule kumangwao,
42 for he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was dying. And as He went, the dense throng crowded on Him.
pakuŵa mwali jwao jwajika pe jwa yaka mpela kumi na mbili ŵaliji nkulwala chiŵandika kuwa. Che Yesu paŵaliji nkwaula, ŵandu ŵaliji nkwaŵijikanya kosekose.
43 And a woman who for twelve years had been afflicted with haemorrhage--and had spent on doctors all she had, but none of them had been able to cure her--
Nipele paliji ni jwankongwe jumo mumpingo wa ŵandu mula, juŵalwalaga magono kwa yaka kumi na mbili, juŵamasile chipanje chakwe chose kwa ŵamitela ni ngapagwa juŵankombwele kunnamya.
44 came close behind Him and touched the tassel of His robe; and instantly her flow of blood stopped.
Jwankongwe jo ŵannyichilile Che Yesu kunyuma ni ŵakwaiye lujenje lwa mwinjilo wao. Papopo ŵalamile magono.
45 "Who is it touched me?" Jesus asked. And when all denied having done so, Peter and the rest said, "Rabbi, the crowds are hemming you in and pressing on you."
Che Yesu ŵausisye achitiji, “Ana ŵaani ŵangwaiye?” Wose ŵatite ngapagwa mundu jwankwaiye. Nombe che Petulo ŵatite, “Ambuje, mpingo wa ŵandu unsyungwile ni kummijikanya!”
46 "Some one has touched me," Jesus replied, "for I feel that power has gone out from me."
Nambo Che Yesu ŵatite, “Apali mundu jwangwaiye, nguimanyilila pakuŵa machili gangopweche.”
47 Then the woman, perceiving that she had not escaped notice, came trembling, and throwing herself down at His feet she stated before all the people the reason why she had touched Him and how she was instantly cured.
Jwankongwe jula paŵaiweni kuti ngakukombola kulisisa, ŵalikopwesye achitetemelaga kwa lipamba ni ŵatindiŵele paujo pa Che Yesu. Pelepo ni ŵasasile mmbujo mwa wose ligongo lya kwakwaya Che Yesu ni iŵatite pakulamwa kwanakamo.
48 "Daughter," said He, "your faith has cured you; go, and be at peace."
Che Yesu ŵansalile jwankongwe jula kuti, “Mwanangu, chikulupi chenu chinnamisye. Njaule kwa chitendewele.”
49 While He was still speaking, some one came to the Warden of the Synagogue from his house and said, "Your daughter is dead; trouble the Rabbi no further."
Che Yesu akanaŵe kumalisya kuŵecheta jwaiche mundu jumo kutyochela ku nyuumba ja chilongola jula kukwasalila che Yailo kuti, “Mwanagwenu awile, nkapunda kunsausya jwakwiganya.”
50 Jesus heard the words and said to him, "Have no fear. Only believe, and she shall be restored to life."
Nambo Che Yesu paŵapilikene yeleyo ŵaasalile che Yailo, “Kasinjogopa, ngambe kukulupilila, nombewo chalame.”
51 So He came to the house, but allowed no one to go in with Him but Peter and John and James and the girl's father and mother.
Paŵaiche pa nyuumba po nganansalila mundu jwine kuti ajinjile pamo nawo, ikaŵe che Petulo ni che Yohana ni che Yakobo ni achikulugwe ni atatigwe mwali jo.
52 The people were all weeping aloud and beating their breasts for her; but He said, "Leave off wailing; for she is not dead, but asleep."
Ŵandu wose ŵaliji nkulila ni kwalilila malilo. Nambo Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵanyawo, “Mmyalale, pakuŵa nganawa nambo agambile gona pe!”
53 And they jeered at Him, knowing that she was dead.
Ni ŵanyawo ŵansechile pakuŵa ŵaimanyililaga kuti awile.
54 He, however, took her by the hand and called aloud, "Child, awake!"
Nambo Che Yesu ŵankamwile nkono mwali jula ni kummilanga “Mwanangu njimuche!”
55 And her spirit returned, and instantly she stood up; and He directed them to give her some food.
Umi wao waujilile ni papopo ŵajimi. Ni Che Yesu ŵaasalile kuti ŵape chakulya.
56 Her parents were astounded; but He forbad them to mention the matter to any one.
Achaŵelesi ŵao ŵasimosile nnope nambo Che Yesu ŵaakanyisye kuti akansalila mundu jwalijose yaitendekweyo.
