Luke 9
1 Then calling the Twelve together He conferred on them power and authority over all the demons and to cure diseases;
Wakiita bali kumi ababili mpawo wabapa nguzu anzumizyo aatala abadayimona boonse akuponia malwazi.
2 and sent them out to proclaim the Kingdom of God and to cure the sick.
Wakabatuma kuyo kambawuka bwami bwa Leza akuyosilika bachiswa.
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.
Wakati kulimbabo, “Mutabwezi chintu mulweendo lwenu, nuuba mufunko, niiba nkomo, nichiba chinkwa, nichiba chimbi chizwaato.
4 Whatever house you enter, make that your home, and from it start afresh.
Kufumbwa ng'anda njimutakakanjile, amukakkale mulinjiyo mane mukeende.
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."
Kufumbwa nkubatakaleke kumutambula, nimwayoozwa mudolop eelyo muka kunkumune lusuko lwakumawulu aanu kunembo lyabo bukabe bukamboni kulimbabo.”
6 So they departed and visited village after village, spreading the Good News and performing cures everywhere.
Mpawo bakeenda biinda mum gunzi, kabayabwaambuula majwi mabotu akuyabuponia bantu koonse koonse.
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,
Lino Helodi naakamvwa aatala azyoonse zyakalikuchitika, wakali kataazya, nkaambo bamwi bakali kwaamba kuti Joni Mubbabbatizyi wakali wabuka kubafu,
8 by others that Elijah had appeared, and by others that some one of the ancient Prophets had come back to life.
alimwi kwakali kutegwa Elija wakali kuboneka, akuti bamwi basinsimi biingi bakale bakali babuka.
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.
Helodi wakati, “Ndakamugonka mutwe Joni, mpo ngwani ooyu ngwelikumvwa aatala azeezi zintu?” Aboobo wakeezya kumubona.
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.
Nibakabpoola batumwa, bakaambila Jesu zyoonse nzibakakuchita. Mpawo wakababweza, bakayinka kubusena bulikule kudolopo litegwa Bbetisayida.
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.
Pesi makamu aabantu naakamvwa eezi akamutobela. Wakabatambula akwaambula kulimbabo aatala abwami bwa Leza, akuponia aabo bakalikuyanda kuponesegwa.
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."
lino buzuba sbwakali bwaamba kusika kumamanino, mpawo baikkumi ababili bakasika kulinguwe bati, “Wambila bantu aaba beende baye muma gunzi ali aafwiifwi bakayandule akoona achakulya, nkaambo ookuno nkutubede mbusena butakwe chintu pe.”
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."
Pesi we wakati kulimbabo, “Amubape chakulya ndinywe.” Bakati, “Tujisi biyo zinkwa zilimusanu abaswi babili- kunze aakuti twiinke tukawulile bantu boonse aaba chakulya.”
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."
(Kwakali baluumi bakalikusika zyuulu zisanu.) Wakati kuli basikwiiya bakwe “Amubaambile bakkale muzibunga zyamakkumi musanu.”
15 They did so, making them all, without exception, sit down.
Aboobo bakachita mbubakaambilwa bakkazika bantu aansi.
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.
Wakabweza zinkwa zilimusanu abaswi babili, wakalanga kujulu, wakazilongezya mpawo wakazikwamuuna, mpawo wakapa kuli basikwiiya kuti baabile bantu.
17 So they ate and were fully satisfied, all of them; and what they had remaining over was gathered up, twelve baskets of fragments.
Boonse bakalya bakuta, bufwefwelenga bwakabweezelelwa bwakachaala bwakali kuzuzya zisuwo zili kumi azibili
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?"
Chakasika chiindi chakuti Jesu wakalikukomba alike, basikwiiya bakali anguwe. Wakabuzya kuti, “Makamu aabantu ati ndimeeni?”
19 "John the Baptist," they replied; "but others say Elijah; and others that some one of the ancient Prophets has come back to life."
Bakasandula kuti, “Joni Mubbabbatizyi. Pesi bamwi bati Elija, mpawo bamwi bati umwi musinsimi wakale wakabuka.”
20 "But you," He asked, "who do you say that I am?" "God's Anointed One," replied Peter.
Mpawo wakati kulimbabo, “Pesi nywe muti ndimeni?” Pita wakasandula kuti, “Munanike Kkilisito wa Leza.”
21 And Jesus strictly forbad them to tell this to any one;
Pesi wakabadidimizya chamanguzu kuti bataambili muntu pe,
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."
kati, “Mwana wa Muntu welede kusyonsegwa kuzintu zyiingi akukakwa abapati, bapati babapayizi antoomwe abalembi bamulawu, mpawo uzojiigwa mpawo mubuzuba bwatatu uzobuka.”
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.
Mpawo wakati kuli mbabo boonse, “Na kwaba muntu uyanda kunditobela weelede alikake abweze chiingano chakwe abuzuba anditobele.
24 For whoever desires to save his life shall lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake shall save it.
Ooyo uyanda kutabilila buumi bwakwe uyoobuswekelwa, pesi ooyo uyoswekelwa buumi bwakwe nkaambo kandime uyoobubamba.
25 Why, what benefit is it to a man to have gained the whole world, but to have lost or forfeited his own self.
Niinzi chibotu kuti muntu ajane nyika yoonse, pesi akasweekelwe abumi bwakwe?
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.
Ooyo uufwa bweeme nkaambo kangu amajwi aangu, alakwe Mwana wa Muntu uyofwa bweeme nayooza mubulemu bwakwe, bulemu bwa Wisi abangelo basalala.
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."
Pesi ndatki kulindinywe nchobeni, kulibamvwi biimvwi aawa batayi kuyoomvwa lufu kabatana bona bwami bwa Leza.”
28 It was about eight days after this that Jesus, taking with Him Peter, John, and James, went up the mountain to pray.
lino pmusule lyamazuba musanu aatatu Jesu kali waamba majwi aaya, wakabweza Pita a Joni a Jemusi mpawo wakatanta kalundu kuyookomba.
29 And while He was praying the appearance of His face underwent a change, and His clothing became white and radiant.
Nakali kukomba busyu bwakwe bwakasanduka, mpawo zisamo zyakwe zyakatuba chakwiindilizya.
30 And suddenly there were two men conversing with Him, who were Moses and Elijah.
Mpawo amulange, baalumi bobile bakali kwaambula aawe, Mozesi a Elija,
31 They came in glory, and kept speaking about His death, which He was so soon to undergo in Jerusalem.
bakaboneka muchiimo chabulemu bupati. Bakali kwaambula aatala akwenda kwakwe, oko nkwakali walangila kweeta kumamanino mu Jelusalemu.
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.
Lino Pita abaabo bakali aawe bakali fwide biya akoona, pesi nibakasinsimuka, bakabonuna bulemu bwakwe abaalumi bobile bakayimvwi aawe.
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.
Aawo nibakali kuyobusosoloka kuzwa kuli Jesu, Pita wakati kulinguwe, “Mwami, nchibotu kulindiswe kuti katuli aano. Atuyake zitumba zyotatwe, chimwi chako, chimwi cha Mozesi, achimbi cha Elija” (taakwe nakezi nzyaakali kwaambuula).
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.
Kachaambuula oobu, joba lyakasika lyabavumba, mpawo bakayoowa nibakanjila mujoba.
35 Then there came a voice from within the cloud: "This is My Son, My Chosen One: listen to Him."
Ijwi lyakamvwika mujoba kaliti, “Ooyu mwana wangu, uusalidwe; amumuswiilile.”
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.
Ijwi nilyakamana kwaambula Jesu waka chaala kali aalike. Bakawumuna alimwi taakwe ngubakaambila pe mumazuba aayo anzibakabona.
37 On the following day, when they were come down from the mountain, a great crowd came to meet Him;
Likno mubuzuba bwakatobela, nibakaselela mukalundu, inkamu yabantu mpati yakamutambula.
38 and a man from the crowd called out, "Rabbi, I beg you to pity my son, for he is my only child.
Amulange umwi mwaalumi kuzwa munkamu wakoompolola, kati, “Muyiisyi, ndakombelela ulange mwana wangu, nkaambo ngomwana wangu alike.
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.
Langa, muuya nga wamujata mpawo nga wasanguna kukwiila; zimupa kusuntuka mpawo nga wazwa fulu kumulomo. Tuufwaambani kumuleka pe alimwi umupa kuchubbuuka kapati.
40 I entreated your disciples to expel the spirit, but they could not."
Ndakumbila basikwiiya bako kuti bawutande pesi bakachilwa.”
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."
Jesu wakasandula wati, “Nywebo nozyalane litasyomi, ndeelede kuba aandinywe kwachiindi chilamfu biyeni akukkala aandinywe? Yeta mwana wako aano.”
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.
Nakalikuyobuza mulombe ooyu, muuya wakamuwisizya aansi akumusuntula. Pesi Jesu wakawulayilila muuya mubi akumuponia, akumubwedezya kulo wisi.
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,
Mpawo bakagamba abupati bwa Leza. Aawo kabachigamba boonse aali nzyakali wachita, wakati kulo basikwiiya bakwe,
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."
“Aaya majwi ayelede kunjila loko mmatwi eenu: Mwana wa Muntu uzowabwa kumaanza abaalumi.”
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.
Pesi tebakamvwisisisya nzyakalikwaamba. Zyakasiswa kuli mbabo, aboobo tebakaziba nchizyaamba. Alimwi bakayoowa kuti babuzye aatala amajwi aaya.
46 Now there arose a dispute among them, which of them was to be the greatest.
Mpawo kwakabuka kukazyania aatala akuti ngwani aakati kabo utaazobe mupati kwiinda bamwi.
47 And Jesus, knowing the reasoning that was in their hearts, took a young child and made him stand by His side
Pesi Jesu naakaziba zyakali mumyoyo yabo, wakabweza mwana muniini wamweeta kubbazu lyakwe
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."
mpawo wakati kulimbabo, “Ooyo uutambula mwana ooyu muzina lyangu, utambula ndime, ayooyo uutambula ndime, utambula ooyo wakandituma. Nkaambo ooyo muniini akati kenu ngonguwe mupati.”
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."
Joni walkasandula wati, “Mwami, twabona umwi muntu kalikutanda madayimona muzina lyako pesi twamukasya, nkaambo takutobeli pe antoomwe andiswe.”
50 "Do not forbid him," said Jesus, "for he who is not against you is on your side."
“Tamumukasyi pe,” Jesu wakasandula, “nkaambo ooyo uutamulwani nguwenu.”
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.
Nakaswemna mazuba akuti atolwe kujulu, wakabikka budyu bwakwe kuti baye ku Jelusalema.
52 They went and entered a village of the Samaritans to make ready for Him.
Wakatma batumwa kunembo lyakwe, bakayinka bakunjila mulilimwi kgunzi lyama Samaria kabamubambila zyoonse.
53 But the people there would not receive Him, because He was evidently going to Jerusalem.
Pesi bantu bamugunzi eelyo tebakamutambula pe nkaambo wakalikutozya ku Jelusalema.
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?"
Basikwiiya bakwe nibakachibona eechi, bakati kulinguwe, “Mwami, uyanda kuti twiite mulilo na kuzwa kujulu iunbanyonyoone boonse?”
55 But He turned and rebuked them.
Pesi wakabalanga wabakalalila,
56 And they went to another village.
mpawo kbakaya kulilimbi gunzi.
57 And, as they proceeded on their way, a man came to Him and said, "I will follow you wherever you go."
Kabayobweenda munzila, umwi muntu wakati, “Ndilakutobela koonse nkotakaye.”
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."
Jesu wakati kulinguwe, “Baswumpe bali aabulyango, atuyuni twamujulu tuli azizoumbo, pesi mwana wamuntu takwe mpanga ulasegezya mutwe wakwe.”
59 "Follow me," He said to another. "Master," the man replied, "allow me first to go and bury my father."
Mpawo wakati kuli umwi, “Nditobele.” Pesi wakati, “Mwami, Ndizumine ndikavwike taata wangu sansi.”
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."
Pesi wakati kulinguwe, “Leka bafu bavwikke bafunyina. Pesi webo, yinka ukakambawuke kule aatala abwami bwa Leza.”
61 "Master," said yet another, "I will follow you; but allow me first to go and say good-bye to my friends at home."
Mpawo umwi wakati, “Ndilakutobela, Mwami, pesi ndizumine ndooneke aabo bali amuunzi
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.
