Luke 9
1 Then calling the Twelve together He conferred on them power and authority over all the demons and to cure diseases;
Yesu walabunganya beshikwiya bakendi ne kubapa ngofu shakufunya mishimu yaipa ne kushilika malwashi.
2 and sent them out to proclaim the Kingdom of God and to cure the sick.
Lino Yesu walabatuma kuya kukambauka sha Bwami bwakendi Lesa ne kushilika malwashi.
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.
Walabambileti, “Mutanyamunapo cintu nambi cimo mubulwendo bwenu, mutamanta inkoli, mukopa, cakulya, mali nambi byakufwala bibili.
4 Whatever house you enter, make that your home, and from it start afresh.
Mwakashika mung'anda moshi bakamutambule cena, mukekale mwepelomo kushikikila busuba mboti mukafume mumushi umo.
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."
Uko nkweshi bakabule kumutambula, pakufuma mumushi umo, mukalipampe lusuko kumyendo. Ici nicikabe cishibisho kuli endibo.”
6 So they departed and visited village after village, spreading the Good News and performing cures everywhere.
Beshikwiya balenda muminshi yonse, kabaya akukambauka Mulumbe Waina ne kushilika malwashi kuli konse.
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 mwami Helode, mpwalanyumfwa byonse byalenshika, walapenga mumoyo pakwinga bantu bambi bali kabambeti, “Uyu ni Yohane lapunduku kufuma kubafu.”
8 by others that Elijah had appeared, and by others that some one of the ancient Prophets had come back to life.
Bambi bali kabambeti, “Ni Eliya laboneke kayi, nabambi eti, ni umo wa bashinshimi bakulukulu lapunduku kubafu.”
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.
Helode walambeti, “Yohane ni usa ngondatimbula mutwi, nomba niyani uyu lenshinga bintu ibi mbyondanyumfunga?” Neco wali kayanda kubona Yesu uyo.
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.
Lino mpobabwelela batumwa balamwambila Yesu byonse mbyobalensa. Kufumapo Yesu walaya ne beshikwiya bakendi kuminshi yaku Betisaida.
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.
Bantu bangi mpobalanyumfwa balamukonkela uko nkwalaya. Yesu walabatambula, neku bambila sha Bwami bwakendi Lesa, ne kushilika abo bali kabasuni kwambeti babe cena.
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."
Lisuba mpolyalikuba pepi kwibila, beshikwiya bakendi bali likumi ne babili balaya kuli Yesu ne kumwambileti, “Kamubambilani bantu benga muminshi ne misena ili pepi balangole byakulya ne kwakona pakwinga kuno nikucisuwa.”
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."
Nsombi Yesu walabambileti, “Amwe mubape byakulya.” Beshikwiya bakumbuleti, “Tukute owa shinkwa usanu ne inswi shibili. Lino sena musuni kwambeti tuye tule byakulya byakwana bantu aba?”
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."
Palikuba batuloba bonka bakwana 5,000. Lino Yesu walabambila beshikwiya bakendi eti, “Kamwambilani bantu bekale mumakoto, likoto lya makumi ali asanu.”
15 They did so, making them all, without exception, sit down.
Beshikwiya balensa mbuli ncobalambilwa.
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.
Yesu walanyamuna shinkwa usanu ne Iswi shibili uto, walalanga kwilu ne kulumba Lesa, walakomona nekupa beshikwiya eti bayabile 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.
Bantu bonse balalya nekwikuta. Nomba beshikwiya balabwesa byonse byalashalako ku bantu nekwisusha bitundu likumi ne bibili.
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?"
Nabumbi busuba Yesu wali kapaila enka, beshikwiya bakendi naboyo balikuba pepi. Lino walabepusheti, “Sena bantu bangi balambangeti ame njame bani?”
19 "John the Baptist," they replied; "but others say Elijah; and others that some one of the ancient Prophets has come back to life."
Balo balakumbuleti, “Bambi balambangeti njamwe Yohane mubatishi. Kayi nabambi balambangeti njamwe Eliya. Kayi nabambi eti njamwe umo wabanshinshimi bakulukulu walapunduka kubafu.”
20 "But you," He asked, "who do you say that I am?" "God's Anointed One," replied Peter.
Lino Yesu walabepusheti, “Nomba amwe mukute kwambeti ame njame bani?” Petulo walakumbuleti, “Njamwe Wananikwa wa Lesa.”
21 And Jesus strictly forbad them to tell this to any one;
Nomba Yesu walakonkomesha beshikwiya kwambeti kabatambila muntu nambi umo makani aya.
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."
Kayi walambeti, “Mwana Muntu welela kupenshewa ne kukanwa ne bamakulene beshimilumbo ne bamakulene baba Yuda ne beshikwiyisha ba Milawo nibakamukane. Nendi naka shinwe, nsombi busuba bwabutatu nakapunduke kubafu.”
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.
Kufumapo walambila bonseti, “Namuntu layandanga kunkonkela ame, welela kushiya nekusula bintu byonse busuba ne busuba kunyamuna lusanda lwakendi nekunkonkela.
24 For whoever desires to save his life shall lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake shall save it.
Pakwinga layandanga kupulusha buyumi bwakendi nakabutaye. Nomba uyo latayanga buyumi bwakendi pacebo ca njame, cakubinga nakabucane.
25 Why, what benefit is it to a man to have gained the whole world, but to have lost or forfeited his own self.
Nomba cainapo ni cani na muntu laba ne bintu byonse bili mucishi capanshi cino, nendi ubutaya buyumi bwakendi bwancinencine nambi kubononga?
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.
Palico na muntu unyumfwa insoni pacebo ca maswi akame, neye Mwana Muntu nakamunyufwile insoni pakwisa mubulemu bwakendi ne mubulemu bwa Baishi nebwa bangelo bwaswepa.
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."
Cakubinga ndamwambilingeti mpobali bambi pano beshi bakabule kufwa kabatana babona Bwami bwa Lesa.”
28 It was about eight days after this that Jesus, taking with Him Peter, John, and James, went up the mountain to pray.
Mpopalapita masuba asanu ne atatu Yesu mpwalamba makani aya, walamanta Petulo ne Yohane ne Jemusi walaya pa mulundu kuya kupaila.
29 And while He was praying the appearance of His face underwent a change, and His clothing became white and radiant.
Lino mpwalikupaila, ciwa cakendi Yesu calasanduka ne byakufwala byakendi byalabemba tuu.
30 And suddenly there were two men conversing with Him, who were Moses and Elijah.
Popelapo kwalaboneka batuloba babili Mose ne Eliya kabamba ne Yesu.
31 They came in glory, and kept speaking about His death, which He was so soon to undergo in Jerusalem.
Balaboneka mubulemu bwa kwilu kayi kabambilana sha palufu lwa Yesu lwakuya kufwila ku Yelusalemu.
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 Petulo ne abo mbwalikuba nabo balikuba mutulo. Nomba mpobalapunduka balabona bulemu bwa Yesu ne bantu babili bemana pepi nendiye.
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.
Pacindi mpwalikupansana nabo, Petulo walambila Yesu eti, “Bashikwiyisha, cileni kwambeti tuli pano katwibaka mishasha itatu, umbi wenu, umbi wa Mose, umbi wa Eliya.” Petulo nkalikwishiba ncali kwamba.
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.
Kacamba, kwalesa likumbi lyabafwekelela. Lino beshikwiya balatina.
35 Then there came a voice from within the cloud: "This is My Son, My Chosen One: listen to Him."
Lino mulikumbi umo mwalanyumfwika liswi lya kwambeti, “Uyu emwaname ndalamusala neco mumunyumfwile!”
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.
Lino maswi mpwalacileka kunyufwika, beshikwiya balabona Yesu lashala enka. Neco balamwena tonto, kufuma apo baliya kwambilapo muntu nambi umo mbuli ncobalabona.
37 On the following day, when they were come down from the mountain, a great crowd came to meet Him;
Mumene mene Yesu ne beshikwiya bakendi batatu balaseluka pa mulundu, nalyo likoto linene lyabantu lyalakumanina ne Yesu.
38 and a man from the crowd called out, "Rabbi, I beg you to pity my son, for he is my only child.
Popelapo, muntu umbi wamulikoto ilyo walolobesheti, “Bashikwiyisha, ndamusengengeti munyumfwileko inkumbo uyu emwaname enka ngonkute.
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.
Ukute mushimu waipa na ulamwikata ukute kakuwa, kayi ne kunyukuma mpaka ufuma lipofu kumulomo. Kayi nkaukute kumulekapo mpaka umulingapo.
40 I entreated your disciples to expel the spirit, but they could not."
Lino ndanga ndasenge beshikwiya benu eti baufunye, nomba balalilwa.”
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."
Yesu walakumbuleti, “Ha! Bantu babula lushomo, mweshikupindimuna miyeyeyo, nomba ninjikale nenu cindi citali econi? Kamumuletani kuno mwana.”
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.
Mwana uyo mpwalikuya kuli Yesu, mushimu waipa walamuwala panshi ne kumunyukumuna. Nendi Yesu walakalalila mushimu waipa ne kushilika mwana usa. Lino walamubwesha kuli baishi.
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,
Bantu bonse balakankamana mpobalabona ngofu shinene sha Lesa. Bantu kabacikankamana pa bintu ibyo mbyalensa, Yesu wabambila beshikwiya bakendi eti,
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."
“Kamunyumfwishisha makani aya ngoti ndimwambile! ame Mwana Muntu ninkayabwe mumakasa abantu.”
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.
Nsombi balo baliya kwinshiba ncalikwamba pakwinga calikuba casolama nomba baliyawa kwanyumfwishisha. Kayi balatina kumwipusha.
46 Now there arose a dispute among them, which of them was to be the greatest.
Beshikwiya balatatika kupikishana kwambeti benshibe nomba mukulene niyani pakati pabo.
47 And Jesus, knowing the reasoning that was in their hearts, took a young child and made him stand by His side
Lino Yesu walenshiba ncobali kabayeya mumyoyo, walamanta mwana nekumwikalika kulubasu lwakendi.
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."
Lino walabambileti, “Muntu uliyense welela kutambula mwana mbuli uyu mulina lyakame, latambulu ame. Muntu uliyense ukute kutambula ame latambulunga uyo walantuma, pakwinga uyo ngomwasula pakati penu emukulene.”
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."
Lino Yohane walambeti, “Amwe beshikwiyisha, twabona muntu umbi nkafunya mishimu yaipa mulina lyenu, nomba twamukanisha pakwinga nte wa mulikoto lyetu.”
50 "Do not forbid him," said Jesus, "for he who is not against you is on your side."
Yesu walamwambileti, “Mutamukanisha, pakwinga uyo labulunga kutotekeshana nenjamwe uli kulubasu lwenu.”
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.
Lino mpocalashika cindi cakwambeti Yesu enga kwilu, walayeya kuya ku Yelesalemu.
52 They went and entered a village of the Samaritans to make ready for Him.
Walatuma batumwa kuntangu kwakendi abo balaya kuya kwingila mumunshi wa Samaliya kwambeti bamubambile busena.
53 But the people there would not receive Him, because He was evidently going to Jerusalem.
Bantu ba mumunshi uyo baliyawa kumutambula pakwinga walikaya 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?"
Lino beshikwiya ba Yesu, Jemusi ne Yohane, mpobalabona balambeti, “Mwami, sena nkatwela kwambeti tukuwe mulilo ufume kwilu wise wononge bantu aba?”
55 But He turned and rebuked them.
Yesu walacebuka ne kubakalalila beshikwiya.
56 And they went to another village.
Popelapo bonse balanyamuka balaya kumunshi umbi.
57 And, as they proceeded on their way, a man came to Him and said, "I will follow you wherever you go."
Mpobalikuya munshila, muntu umbi walambila Yesu eti, “Nindimukonkelenga kuli konse nkweshi mwenganga.”
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."
Yesu walamukumbuleti, “Bamwaba bakute mishima, kayi ne bikeni bikute bisangala, lino Mwana Muntu liyawa pakona.”
59 "Follow me," He said to another. "Master," the man replied, "allow me first to go and bury my father."
Panyuma pakendi Yesu walambila naumbi eti, “Unkokele.” Nsombi nendi muntu uyo walambeti, “Mwami tanshika munsuminishe njenga mbike bata.”
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."
Yesu walakumbuleti, “Leka bafwa babike bafu banabo, nsombi obe koya ukambauke sha Bwami bwa Lesa.”
61 "Master," said yet another, "I will follow you; but allow me first to go and say good-bye to my friends at home."
Naumbi muntu walambeti, “Nindimukonkele Mwami, lino tanguna nje ndaye kung'anda yakame.”
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.
Yesu walakumbuleti, “Muntu atatika kulima ne ngombe, kayi nkacebuku kunyuma, Lesa liya nendi incito mu Bwami bwakendi.”
