< Luke 9 >

1 Then calling the Twelve together He conferred on them power and authority over all the demons and to cure diseases;
Che Yesu ŵaaŵilasile pamo ŵakulijiganya ŵao kumi na mbili, ŵapele machili ni ulamusi wa kugakoposya masoka gose ni kulamya ilwele.
2 and sent them out to proclaim the Kingdom of God and to cure the sick.
Ŵatumile ajaulangane kukwalalichila ŵandu Umwenye wa Akunnungu ni kwalamya ŵakulwala.
3 And He commanded them, "Take nothing for your journey; neither stick nor bag nor bread nor money; and do not have an extra under garment.
Ŵasalile, “Nkajigala chindu chachili chose mulendo atamuno ntindiso atamuno nsaku atamuno chakulya atamuno mbiya atamuno iwalo iŵili.
4 Whatever house you enter, make that your home, and from it start afresh.
Nyuumba jajili jose jichinkajinjile ni kumpochela nlonjele pelepo, mpaka pachintyoche musi wo.
5 Wherever they refuse to receive you, as you leave that town shake off the very dust from your feet as a protest against them."
Ŵandu akanaga kumpochela, ntyochanje mu musi mo nombe ŵanyamwe pachintyoche nkung'unde luundu mmakongolo mwenu kulosya kuti achinsyene asagwile kuukana utenga wa Akunnungu.”
6 So they departed and visited village after village, spreading the Good News and performing cures everywhere.
Nipele, ŵatandite ulendo, ŵapitaga msinda ni msinda ŵalalichilaga Ngani Jambone ni kwalamya ŵakulwala pali pose.
7 Now Herod the Tetrarch heard of all that was going on; and he was bewildered because of its being said by some that John had come back to life,
Ni chilongola che Helode ŵapilikene indu yose iyatendekwe ni ŵakanganiche pakuŵa ŵane ŵatiji, “Che Yohana Ŵakubatisya ŵala asyuchile!”
8 by others that Elijah had appeared, and by others that some one of the ancient Prophets had come back to life.
Nambo ŵane ŵatiji che Elia ŵala atyochele ni ŵane ŵatiji kuti jumo jwakwe jwa ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu ŵakalakala asyuchile.
9 And Herod said, "John I have beheaded; but who is this, of whom I hear such reports?" And he sought for an opportunity of seeing Jesus.
Nambo che Helode ŵatite, “Ŵele che Yohana wo ngati nakatile ntwe sambano ŵele ni ŵaani ungupilikana ngani syakwesi?” Nipele ŵansosaga kuti ŵawone.
10 The Apostles, on their return, related to Jesus all they had done. Then He took them and withdrew to a quiet retreat, to a town called Bethsaida.
Achinduna ŵala paŵausile, ŵaŵalanjile Che Yesu yose yaitesile. Che Yesu ŵaajigele ŵanyawo, ŵajawile pajika mu musi waukuŵilanjikwa Besesaida.
11 But the immense crowd, aware of this, followed Him; and receiving them kindly He proceeded to speak to them of the Kingdom of God, and those who needed to be restored to health, He cured.
Nambo mpingo wa ŵandu ula paŵaimanyi kuŵajawile, ŵakuiye. Nombe Che Yesu ŵapochele ni ŵaŵechete nawo ya umwenye wa Akunnungu ni kwalamya ŵaŵasachile kulamwa.
12 Now when the day began to decline, the Twelve came to Him and said, "Send the people away, that they may go to the villages and farms round about and find lodging and a supply of food; because here we are in an uninhabited district."
Lyuŵa palyatandite kutiŵila, ŵakulijiganya kumi na mbili ŵala ŵanjaulile Che Yesu kukwasalila kuti, “Mwalanje ŵandu ajaulangane mu misi ni migunda jakuŵandichila akasose yakulya ni pagona, pakuŵa patuli pa pali pajika.”
13 "You yourselves," He said, "must give them food." "We have nothing," they replied, "but five loaves and a couple of fish, unless indeed we were to go and buy provisions for all this host of people."
Nambo Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Ŵanyamwe mwape ŵanyawo chindu chakulya.” Nipele ŵajanjile, “Nganitukola yakupunda nambo tukwete mikate nsano ni somba siŵili pe. Panepa tujaule tukaasumile yakulya mpingo wose wu?”
14 (For there were about 5,000 adult men.) But He said to His disciples, "Make them sit down in parties of about fifty each."
Ŵandu uŵaliji pepala, ŵaliji achalume mpela elufu tano. Nipele Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao kuti, “Mwatamiche paasi mipingo ja ŵandu mpela hansinihansini.”
15 They did so, making them all, without exception, sit down.
Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵatesile mpela iŵatite pakusalilwa ni ŵatamiche wose.
16 Then He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to Heaven He blessed them and broke them into portions which He gave to the disciples to distribute to the people.
Nipele Che Yesu ŵajigele mikate nsano jila ni somba siŵili sila ni ŵalolite kwinani ni kwatogolela Akunnungu ni kwipa upile ni kugaŵanya, ŵapele ŵakulijiganya ŵao kuti ŵapeleganye ŵandu.
17 So they ate and were fully satisfied, all of them; and what they had remaining over was gathered up, twelve baskets of fragments.
Ŵandu wose ŵalile ni kwikuta. Ŵalokotenye isigasi ya mbakatika ni kugumbasya itundu kumi na mbili.
18 One day when He was praying by Himself the disciples were present; and He asked them, "Who do the people say that I am?"
Lyuŵa limo, Che Yesu ŵaliji nkupopela jika pe ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaliji pachiŵandi. Nipele ŵausisye ŵanyawo, “Ana ŵandu akuti une ndili ŵaani?”
19 "John the Baptist," they replied; "but others say Elijah; and others that some one of the ancient Prophets has come back to life."
Ŵajanjile, “Ŵane akuti mmwejo ni che Yohana Ŵakubatisya ni ŵane akuti che Elia ni ŵane akuti jumo jwao ŵakulondola ŵakalakala ŵa Akunnungu asyuchile.”
20 "But you," He asked, "who do you say that I am?" "God's Anointed One," replied Peter.
Pelepo ŵausisye ŵanyawo, “Nombe ŵanyamwe nkutinji une ndili ŵaani?” Che Petulo ŵajanjile, “Mmwejo ni Kilisito Nkulupusyo chilanga chiŵalanjile Akunnungu.”
21 And Jesus strictly forbad them to tell this to any one;
Che Yesu ŵalamwile ŵanyawo ni kwakanya kuti akasala kwa mundu jwalijose jele ngani jo.
22 and He said, "The Son of Man must suffer much cruelty, be rejected by the Elders and High Priests and Scribes, and be put to death, and on the third day be raised to life again."
Ŵapundile kuŵecheta kuti Mwana jwa Mundu akusachilwa kulaga nnope ni kukanikwa ni achachekulu ni achakulu ŵambopesi ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ga che Musa ni kuulajikwa nambo lyuŵa lyaatatu lya chiwa chao chachisyuka.
23 And He said to all, "If any one is desirous of following me, let him ignore self and take up his cross day by day, and so be my follower.
Nipele, ŵaasalile ŵandu wose kuti, “Mundu jwalijose jwakusaka kuunguya akusachilwa alikane nsyene ni atwichile nsalaba wakwe moŵa gose ni kunguya.
24 For whoever desires to save his life shall lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake shall save it.
Pakuŵa jwalijose jwakusaka kuukulupusya umi wakwe chaujase ni jwalijose juchaujase umi wakwe ligongo lyangune, jwelejo chaukulupusye.
25 Why, what benefit is it to a man to have gained the whole world, but to have lost or forfeited his own self.
Ana mundu chapate chichi, aŵaga ni ipanje yose ya pachilambo kwa kulijasa natamuno kulijonanga nsyene?
26 For whoever shall have been ashamed of me and my teachings, of him the Son of Man will be ashamed when He comes in His own and the Father's glory and in that of the holy angels.
Pakuŵa mundu jwalijose jutachingolela soni une ni majiganyo gangu, Mwana jwa Mundu tachinkolela soni mundu jo pachachiika mu ukulu wakwe ni wa Atati ni wa achikatumetume ŵa kwinani ŵaswela.
27 I tell you truly that there are some of those who stand here who will certainly not taste death till they have seen the Kingdom of God."
Ngunsalila isyene kuti, apali ŵane mwa ŵanyaŵa ngaawa pangauwona Umwenye wa Akunnungu.”
28 It was about eight days after this that Jesus, taking with Him Peter, John, and James, went up the mountain to pray.
Galiji moŵa nane paŵamasile kuŵecheta gelego, Che Yesu ŵaajigele che Petulo ni che Yohana ni che Yakobo, ŵakwesile nawo pa chitumbi kukupopela.
29 And while He was praying the appearance of His face underwent a change, and His clothing became white and radiant.
Paŵaliji nkupopela, kuloleka kwa ku meeso kwao kwagalawiche ni iwalo yao yaliji yeswela ni kung'alima nnope.
30 And suddenly there were two men conversing with Him, who were Moses and Elijah.
Papopo ŵandu ŵaŵili ŵaoneche aninkukunguluka nawo, nombe ŵandu wo ŵaliji che Elia ni che Musa,
31 They came in glory, and kept speaking about His death, which He was so soon to undergo in Jerusalem.
ŵaŵakopochele ali ni ukulu, uŵaŵechetaga nawo Che Yesu yankati ichiyaakopochele ku Yelusalemu ko kuti agumbalichisye yailembekwe nkati ŵelewo.
32 Now Peter and the others were weighed down with sleep; but, keeping themselves awake all through, they saw His glory, and the two men standing with Him.
Che Petulo ni achinjakwe ŵatopelwe ni lugono, nambo paŵajimwiche, ŵauweni ukulu wa Che Yesu ni ŵandu ŵaŵili uŵajimi nawo.
33 And when they were preparing to depart from Him, Peter said to Jesus, "Rabbi, we are thankful to you that we are here. Let us put up three tents--one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah." He did not know what he was saying.
Ŵandu ŵaŵili wo paŵaliji aninkulekangana ni Che Yesu, che Petulo ŵaasalile Che Yesu, “Ambuje, ili yambone uwe kutama apano! Tutaŵe masakasa gatatu, limo lyenu ni limo li che Musa ni line li che Elia.” Nganaimanyililaga chaŵaŵechetaga cho.
34 But while he was thus speaking, there came a cloud which spread over them; and they were awe-struck when they had entered into the cloud.
Che Petulo paŵaliji aninkuŵecheta yeleyo, liunde lyaichilile ni ŵakulijiganya ŵala ŵajogwepe pakuŵa liunde lyo lyaliji lininkwaichilila.
35 Then there came a voice from within the cloud: "This is My Son, My Chosen One: listen to Him."
Lyakopochele liloŵe mwiunde mula, lichitiji, “Aju ni Mwanangu junansagwile, mumpilikanichisye.”
36 After this voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. They kept it to themselves, and said not a word to any one at that time about what they had seen.
Palyamasile kupilikanika liloŵe lyo, Che Yesu ŵaoneche ali jika pe. Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵamyalele ni nganansalila mundu jwalijose gele moŵa go yankati yele yose iŵaiweni yo.
37 On the following day, when they were come down from the mountain, a great crowd came to meet Him;
Malaŵi jakwe Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵatatu ŵala paŵaliji aninkutuluka mwitumbi, mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu ŵaichilile.
38 and a man from the crowd called out, "Rabbi, I beg you to pity my son, for he is my only child.
Mundu jumo mu mpingo mwa ŵandu mula ŵanyanyisye achitiji, “Jwakwiganya, ngunchondelela munkolele chanasa mwanangu ju pakuŵa ali mwanangu jwa jika pe!
39 At times a spirit seizes him and he suddenly cries out. It convulses him, and makes him foam at the mouth, and does not leave him till it has well-nigh covered him with bruises.
Nnole lisoka lyakwe likusomoka ni chitema pe likuntenda agumile ni kuntaga njilinjili ni kunkopoka chiulo nkang'wa. Likupunda kunnagasya nnope ni ngalikunneka kwakwepepala.
40 I entreated your disciples to expel the spirit, but they could not."
Nipele, nachondelele ŵakulijiganya ŵenu kuti akalityosye, nambo nganakombolanga.”
41 "O unbelieving and perverse generation!" replied Jesus; "how long shall I be with you and bear with you? Bring your son here to me."
Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ŵanyamwe uŵelesi wangali chikulupi, ni ŵakusochela, chindame ni ŵanyamwe ni kumpililila mpaka chaka chi?” Nipele, Che Yesu ŵansalile mundu jo kuti, “Munjise nawo apano mwanagwenu jo.”
42 Now while the youth was coming, the spirit dashed him to the ground and cruelly convulsed him. But Jesus rebuked the foul spirit, and cured the youth and gave him back to his father.
Katema jwele mwanache jo paŵaliji aninkwaichilila Che Yesu, lisoka lila lyangwisisye paasi ni kuntaga njilinjili. Nambo Che Yesu ŵalikalipile lisoka lila ni kunnamya mwanache ni kwauchisya atatigwe.
43 And all were awe-struck at the mighty power of God. And while every one was expressing wonder at all that He was doing, He said to his disciples,
Ŵandu wose ŵasimosile nnope kugalola machili gamakulungwa ga Akunnungu. Ŵandu ŵala paŵaliji nkusimonga yankati yose yaitesile, Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao,
44 "As for you, store these my sayings in your memory; for, before long, the Son of Man will be betrayed into the hands of men."
“Ngasinliŵalila chingusaka kuŵecheta ni ŵanyamwe chi, Mwana jwa Mundu chatagwe mmakono ga ŵandu.”
45 But they did not understand His meaning: it was veiled from them that they might not perceive it, and they were afraid to ask Him about it.
Nambo ŵanyawo nganagamanyilila malumbo ga maloŵe gaŵaŵechete. Lyele lyaliji lyakusisika kwa ŵanyawo kuti anamanyichisye, nombe ŵanyawo ŵajogwepe kwausya malumbo ga maloŵe go.
46 Now there arose a dispute among them, which of them was to be the greatest.
Gatyochele makani kwa ŵakulijiganya ŵala gati ŵaani ŵaali ŵakulungwa kupunda achinjakwe.
47 And Jesus, knowing the reasoning that was in their hearts, took a young child and made him stand by His side
Nambo Che Yesu ŵasimanyilile nganisyo sisyaliji mmitima jao nipele ŵanjigele mwanache jwannandi ni ŵanjimiche chiŵandika nawo,
48 and said to them, "Whoever for my sake receives this little child, receives me; and whoever receives me, receives Him who sent me. For the lowliest among you all--he is the greatest."
ŵaasalile, “Mundu jwalijose jwakumpochela aju mwanache jwannandi ju kwa liina lyangu, jwelejo akumbochela une ni jwalijose jwakumbochela une, akumpochela jwelejo jwandumile une. Pakuŵa jwali jwannandi kupunda wose pasikati jenu, jwelejo ni jwali jwankulungwa.”
49 "Rabbi," replied John, "we have seen a man making use of your name to expel demons; and we forbad him, because he does not come with us."
Che Yohana ŵaŵechete kuti, “Ambuje, tummweni mundu jumo achikoposyaga masoka mu liina lyenu nombe uweji twalinjile kunnekasya ligongo jwelejo nganaŵa jumo jwetu.”
50 "Do not forbid him," said Jesus, "for he who is not against you is on your side."
Nambo Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵanyawo kuti, “Nkannekasya, pakuŵa jwalijose jwangankanila ŵanyamwe, jwelejo ali pamo ni ŵanyamwe.”
51 Now when the time drew near for Him to be received up again into Heaven, He proceeded with fixed purpose towards Jerusalem, and sent messengers before Him.
Nipele, pagaŵandichile moŵa ga Che Yesu kujigalikwa kwinani ŵasachile kwaula ku Yelusalemu.
52 They went and entered a village of the Samaritans to make ready for Him.
Ŵatumile ŵantenga ŵalongolele, nombewo ŵajawile ni kwinjila mu musi umo wa Ŵasamalia kukuŵika chile indu yose kwa ligongo lyao.
53 But the people there would not receive Him, because He was evidently going to Jerusalem.
Nambo ŵandu ŵa wele musi wo ŵakanile kumpochela ligongo ŵaimanyilile kuti ŵasachile kwaula ku Yelusalemu.
54 When the disciples James and John saw this, they said, "Master, do you wish us to order fire to come down from Heaven and consume them?"
Katema ŵakulijiganya ŵakwe paŵaiweni yeleyo, che Yohana ni che Yakobo ŵatite, “Ambuje, ana nkusaka tuŵilasye mooto kutyochela kwinani kuti wajonanje ŵanyaŵa?”
55 But He turned and rebuked them.
Nambo Che Yesu ŵagalauchile ŵanyawo ni kwakalipila.
56 And they went to another village.
Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵatyosile ni kwaula kunsinda wine.
57 And, as they proceeded on their way, a man came to Him and said, "I will follow you wherever you go."
Paŵaliji mu ulendo, mundu jumpepe ŵansalile Che Yesu kuti, “Chinankuye kwakulikose kuchinjaule.”
58 "The foxes have holes," said Jesus, "and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head."
Che Yesu ŵatite, “Macheto gakwete masomwa ni ijuni ikwete isusi, nambo Mwana jwa Mundu nganakola pagona ni kupumulila.”
59 "Follow me," He said to another. "Master," the man replied, "allow me first to go and bury my father."
Nipele, ŵansalile mundu jwine kuti, “Munguye.” Nambo jwelejo ŵatite, “Ambuje, muuneche kaje nyaule ngaasiche atati ŵangu.”
60 "Leave the dead," Jesus rejoined, "to bury their own dead; but you must go and announce far and wide the coming of the Kingdom of God."
Nambo Che Yesu ŵansalile jwelejo kuti, “Mwaleche ŵawe ŵaasiche ŵawe ŵao, nambo mmwejo njaule nkalalichile ngani ja Umwenye wa Akunnungu.”
61 "Master," said yet another, "I will follow you; but allow me first to go and say good-bye to my friends at home."
Ni mundu jwine ŵansalile Che Yesu kuti, “Ambuje chinankuye, nambo muuneche kaje ngaalanje ŵaali kumusi kwangu ŵala.”
62 Jesus answered him, "No one who has put his hand to the plough, and then looks behind him, is fit for the Kingdom of God.
Nambo Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Jwalijose jwakamwile lijela ni kotama kulima agalaukaga ni kulola panyuma, jwelejo ngakuŵajilwa mu Umwenye wa Akunnungu.”
