Luka 11
1 Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya ũmwe Jesũ aarĩ handũ akĩhooya. Rĩrĩa aarĩkirie kũhooya, mũrutwo ũmwe wake akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, tũrute kũhooya o ta ũrĩa Johana aarutire arutwo ake.”
And it came to pass while being He in a place certain praying, when He ceased, said one of the disciples of Him to Him; Lord, do teach us to pray even as also John taught the disciples of him.
2 Nake Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Rĩrĩa mũkũhooya, ugagai atĩrĩ: “‘Ithe witũ (ũrĩ Igũrũ), rĩĩtwa rĩaku nĩrĩamũrwo, ũthamaki waku nĩũũke. (Ũrĩa wendete nĩwĩkagwo gũkũ thĩ, o ta ũrĩa gwĩkagwo kũu igũrũ.)
He said then to them; When you may pray, do say: Father (of us in to the heavens *K*) should be hallowed the name of You; should come the kingdom of You (should be [done] *KO*) (the will of you as in heaven and upon earth; *K*)
3 Tũheage o mũthenya irio ciitũ cia gũtũigana.
The bread of us daily do give us each day;
4 Na ũtũrekere mehia maitũ, o ta ũrĩa o na ithuĩ tũrekagĩra arĩa othe matwĩhagĩria. Na ndũgatũtware magerio-inĩ (no kũhonokia ũtũhonokagie ũũru-inĩ).’”
And do forgive us the sins of us; also for ourselves we forgive to everyone indebted to us; and may you not lead us into temptation (but do deliver us from evil. *K*)
5 Agĩcooka akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũmwe wanyu angĩkorwo arĩ na mũrata nake athiĩ gwake ũtukũ gatagatĩ amwĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Mũrata wakwa, he mĩgate ĩtatũ,
And He said to them; Who among you will have a friend, and will go to him at midnight and say to him; Friend, do lend me three loaves,
6 nĩgũkorwo ndĩ na mũrata wakwa wanjeerera, na ndirĩ na kĩndũ gĩa kũmũhe arĩe.’
since a friend of mine is come off a journey to me, and nothing I have what I will set before him;
7 “Nake mũndũ ũcio ũrĩ nyũmba thĩinĩ amũcookerie atĩrĩ, ‘Tiga gũũthĩĩnia. Nĩndĩkĩtie kũhinga mũrango na tũrĩ toro hamwe na ciana ciakwa. Ndingĩhota gũũkĩra ngũhe mĩgate.’
And he And he from within answering may say; Not me trouble do cause. already the door has been shut, and the children of mine with me in the bed are; not I am able having risen up to give to you.
8 Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ, o na angĩkorwo ndangĩũkĩra amũhe mĩgate ĩyo nĩ ũndũ wa ũrata-rĩ, no nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa amũringĩrĩirie-rĩ, mũndũ ũcio nĩegũũkĩra amũhe kĩrĩa gĩothe abatairio nĩkĩo.”
I say to you; if even not he will give to him having risen up because of being friend of him because of yet the persistence of him having risen he will give to him (as many as *NK(o)*) he needs.
9 “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ: Hooyai na nĩmũkũheo; mathaai na nĩmũkuona; ringaringai mũrango na nĩmũkũhingũrĩrwo.
And I myself And I myself to you say; do ask and it will be given to you; do seek and you will find; do knock and it will be opened to you.
10 Nĩgũkorwo ũrĩa wothe ũhooyaga nĩaheagwo; na ũrĩa ũmaathaga nĩonaga; na ũrĩa ũringaringaga mũrango nĩahingũragĩrwo.
Everyone for the [one] asking receives, and the [one] seeking finds, and to the [one] knocking it will be opened.
11 “Nĩ mũciari ũrĩkũ thĩinĩ wanyu ũngĩĩtio thamaki nĩ mwana wake, nake amũhe nyoka?
Which now (of *no*) you who [is] a father will ask for the son (bread surely not stone will he give to him *KO*) (if *K(o)*) a fish, and (surely not *ko*) instead of a fish a serpent to him will he give
12 Kana eetio itumbĩ amũhe kangʼaurũ?
Or also (if *K*) (he will ask for *NK(O)*) an egg, (surely not *ko*) will he give to him a scorpion?
13 Angĩkorwo inyuĩ, o na mũrĩ ooru, nĩmũũĩ kũhe ciana cianyu iheo njega-rĩ, Ithe wanyu ũrĩa ũrĩ Igũrũ githĩ ndarĩkĩragĩrĩria kũhe Roho Mũtheru kũrĩ arĩa mamũhooyaga!”
If therefore you yourselves evil being you know gifts good to give to the children of you, how much more the Father who [is] in heaven will give [the] Spirit Holy to those asking Him!
14 Na rĩrĩ, Jesũ nĩaingataga ndaimono yume thĩinĩ wa mũndũ ũtaaragia. Rĩrĩa ndaimono ĩyo yoimire, mũndũ ũcio ũtaaragia akĩaria, nakĩo kĩrĩndĩ kĩa andũ gĩkĩgega.
And He was casting out a demon and it was mute. it came to pass then from the demon having gone out spoke the mute And marveled the crowds.
15 No amwe ao makiuga atĩrĩ, “Aingataga ndaimono na hinya wa Beelizebuli ũrĩa mũnene wa ndaimono.”
Some then of them said; By Beelzebul (the *no*) prince of the demons He casts out the demons.
16 Nao andũ angĩ makĩmũgeria, makĩmũũria amaringĩre kĩama kiumĩte igũrũ.
Others now testing a sign from heaven were seeking from Him.
17 Jesũ nĩamenyire ũrĩa meciiragia, nake akĩmeera atĩrĩ: “Ũthamaki o wothe ũngĩgayũkana ũũkanĩrĩre guo mwene no ũharagane, nayo nyũmba ĩngĩgayũkana yũkanĩrĩre yo nyene no ĩgwe.
He himself now knowing their thoughts said to them; Every kingdom against itself having been divided is brought to desolation, and a house against a house falls.
18 Angĩkorwo Shaitani nĩagayũkanĩte akeyũkĩrĩra we mwene-rĩ, ũthamaki wake ũngĩkĩĩhaanda atĩa? Ndoiga ũguo tondũ mũroiga atĩ niĩ nyingataga ndaimono na hinya wa Beelizebuli.
If now even Satan against himself is divided, how will stand the kingdom of him? For you say by Beelzebul [am] casting out I the demons.
19 Ningĩ angĩkorwo niĩ nyingataga ndaimono na hinya wa Beelizebuli-rĩ, arũmĩrĩri anyu maingataga ndaimono na hinya wa ũ? Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, acio nĩo makaamũtuĩra ciira.
If now I myself by Beelzebul cast out the demons, the sons of you by whom do they cast out? On account of this they themselves of you judges will be.
20 Na rĩrĩ, ingĩkorwo nyingataga ndaimono na hinya wa kĩara kĩa Ngai-rĩ, ũthamaki wa Ngai nĩũũkĩte kũrĩ inyuĩ.
If however by [the] finger of God (I myself *no*) cast out the demons, then has come upon you the kingdom of God.
21 “Rĩrĩa mũndũ njamba oya indo ciake ciothe cia mbaara, arangĩre nyũmba yake mwene, indo ciake ciikaraga irĩ ngitĩre.
When the strong [man] having armed himself may guard the his own house, in peace are the possessions of him;
22 No rĩrĩ, mũndũ ũngĩ ũrĩ na hinya kũmũkĩra angĩmũtharĩkĩra amũtoorie, nĩamũtunyaga indo ciake cia mbaara iria ehokete, na akagaĩra andũ indo iria akoragwo atahĩte.
when however (*k*) [one] stronger than he having come upon [him] he may overcome him, the complete armor of him he takes away in which he had trusted, and the plunder of him he divides.
23 “Mũndũ ũrĩa ũtarĩ hamwe na niĩ, ũcio nĩ thũ yakwa, na ũrĩa ũtacookanagĩrĩria hamwe na niĩ, ũcio nĩ kũhurunja ahurunjaga.
The [one] not being with Me against Me is, and the [one] not gathering with Me scatters.
24 “Na rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ngoma thũku yoima thĩinĩ wa mũndũ, ĩtuĩkanagĩria werũ-inĩ ĩgĩcaria ũhurũko na ĩkawaga. Hĩndĩ ĩyo ĩkoiga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩngũcooka nyũmba ĩrĩa ndoimire.’
When the unclean spirit is gone out from the man, it passes through waterless places seeking rest. and not finding [any] (then *NO*) it says; I will return to the house of mine from where I came out.
25 Na yacooka ĩgakora nyũmba ĩyo ĩrĩ haate, ĩgathondekwo wega.
And having come it finds [it] (being unoccupied *O*) swept and ordered.
26 Hĩndĩ ĩyo ngoma ĩyo thũku ĩkagĩĩra ngoma ingĩ mũgwanja thũku makĩria mayo, igatoonya, igaikara kuo. Naguo mũikarĩre wa mũndũ ũcio ũgathũka gũkĩra wa mbere.”
Then it goes and it takes other spirits more evil than itself seven, and (having entered *NK(o)*) they dwell there; and becomes the last of the man that [one] worse than the first.
27 Rĩrĩa Jesũ aaragia maũndũ maya-rĩ, mũndũ-wa-nja warĩ gatagatĩ-inĩ ga kĩrĩndĩ akĩanĩrĩra na mũgambo mũnene, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Kũrathimwo nĩ maitũguo ũrĩa wagũciarire na agĩkuongithia.”
It came to pass then while [is] saying He these things, having lifted up one [her] voice a woman from the crowd said to Him; Blessed [is] the womb which having borne You, and [the] breasts at which You nursed.
28 Nake Jesũ agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Kũrathimwo nĩ arĩa maiguaga kiugo kĩa Ngai na magagĩathĩkĩra.”
He himself then said; No rather blessed [are] those hearing the word of God and keeping (it. *k*)
29 Na rĩrĩa kĩrĩndĩ kĩa andũ kĩongererekire-rĩ, Jesũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Rũrũ nĩ rũciaro rwaganu. Rũũragia rũringĩrwo kĩama, no gũtirĩ kĩama rũkaringĩrwo tiga o kĩrĩa kĩaringĩirwo Jona.
Of the now crowds being pressed around together He began to say; generation this (generation *no*) an evil is. a sign (it seeks after, *N(k)O*) and a sign not will be given to it only except the sign of Jonah (the prophet. *K*)
30 Nĩgũkorwo o ta ũrĩa Jona aarĩ kĩmenyithia kũrĩ andũ a Nineve, ũguo noguo Mũrũ wa Mũndũ egũkorwo arĩ kĩmenyithia kũrĩ rũciaro rũrũ.
Even as for was (*o*) Jonah to the Ninevites a sign thus will be also the Son of Man to the generation this.
31 Mũtumia-mũthamaki ũrĩa wa mwena wa Gũthini nĩakarũgama hĩndĩ ya ciira hamwe na andũ a rũciaro rũrũ arũtuĩre ciira, nĩgũkorwo oimire ituri cia thĩ oke athikĩrĩrie ũũgĩ wa Solomoni, na rĩu ũmwe mũnene gũkĩra Solomoni arĩ haha.
[The] Queen of [the] South will rise up in the judgment with the men of the generation this and will condemn them; For she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold greater than Solomon here.
32 Andũ a Nineve nĩmakarũgama hĩndĩ ya ciira hamwe na rũciaro rũrũ marũtuĩre ciira; nĩgũkorwo nĩmeririre maahunjĩirio nĩ Jona, na rĩu ũmwe mũnene gũkĩra Jona arĩ haha.
[The] men (Ninevites *N(k)O*) will stand up in the judgment with generation this and will condemn it; For they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold greater than Jonah [is] here.
33 “Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũgwatagia tawa agacooka akaũiga handũ ũtangĩoneka kana akaũiga rungu rwa irebe, no aũigaga handũ igũrũ nĩguo arĩa megũtoonya nyũmba mathererwo nĩ ũtheri.
But no [one] (now *k*) a lamp having lit in (a cellar *N(K)O*) sets it nor [sets it] under the basket but upon the lampstand that those entering in the (light *N(k)O*) may see.
34 Riitho rĩaku nĩrĩo tawa wa mwĩrĩ waku. Rĩrĩa maitho maku marĩ mega, mwĩrĩ waku wothe o naguo ũkoragwo ũiyũrĩte ũtheri. No rĩrĩa matarĩ mega-rĩ, mwĩrĩ waku o naguo ũkoragwo ũiyũrĩte nduma.
The lamp of body is the eye (of you. *no*) When (therefore *K*) the eye of you clear may be, also all the body of you light is; when however evil it may be, also the body of you [is] dark.
35 Hakĩrĩ ũguo-rĩ, menyerera ũtheri ũrĩa ũrĩ thĩinĩ waku ndũgatuĩke nduma.
do take heed therefore lest the light that [is] in you darkness be.
36 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, mwĩrĩ waku wothe ũngĩiyũrwo nĩ ũtheri, na ndũrĩ handũ harĩ nduma, nĩũrĩtheragĩrwo nĩ ũtheri biũ, o ta ũrĩa ũtheri wa tawa ũkũmũrĩkagĩra.”
If therefore the body of you [is] full of light not having part any dark, it will be light all, as when the lamp so the shining may light you.
37 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Jesũ aarĩkirie kwaria, Mũfarisai ũmwe akĩmũnyiita ũgeni gwake makarĩanĩre; nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩthiĩ, agĩikara metha-inĩ.
While then speaking (asked *N(k)O*) Him a Pharisee (a certain one *k*) that He would dine with him. having entered then He reclined.
38 No Mũfarisai ũcio ona ũguo akĩgega nĩ ũndũ Jesũ ndaambire gwĩthamba moko atanarĩa irio.
And the Pharisee having seen [it] marveled that not first He washed before the dinner.
39 Nake Mwathani akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ Afarisai mũthambagia gĩkombe na thaani mwena wa na igũrũ, no thĩinĩ wanyu mũiyũrĩtwo nĩ ũkoroku na waganu.
Said then the Lord to him; Now you yourselves Pharisees the outside the cup and the dish you cleanse, and the inside of you is full of plundering and wickedness.
40 Inyuĩ irimũ ici! Githĩ ũrĩa wombire mwena wa na nja to we wombire mwena wa na thĩinĩ?
Fools! Surely the [One] having made the outside also the inside made?
41 No rĩrĩ, heagai athĩĩni kĩrĩa kĩrĩ thĩinĩ wa thaani, na hĩndĩ ĩyo indo ciothe nĩigũtuĩka theru harĩ inyuĩ.”
But [of] the [things] being within do give alms, and behold all things clean to you are.
42 “Kaĩ mũrĩ na haaro inyuĩ Afarisai-ĩ! Tondũ mũrutagĩra Ngai gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi gĩa terere, na togotia na nyeni cia mĩthemba yothe no mũkaaga kũrũmbũiya kĩhooto na wendani wa Ngai. Mwaagĩrĩirwo nĩ gwĩkaga maũndũ macio mũtegũtiganĩria macio mangĩ ma mbere.
But woe to you Pharisees, for you pay tithes of mint and rue and every herb and you pass by the justice and the love of God; These things (also *NO*) it was necessary for [you] to do, and those and those not (to neglect. *N(k)O*)
43 “Kaĩ mũrĩ na haaro inyuĩ Afarisai-ĩ! Tondũ mwendaga gũikarĩra itĩ iria cia mbere thunagogi-inĩ na mũgeithagio mũrĩ ndũnyũ-inĩ.
Woe to you Pharisees, for you love the first seat in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.
44 “Kaĩ mũrĩ na haaro-ĩ, tondũ mũtariĩ ta mbĩrĩra itarĩ rũũri iria andũ mageragĩra igũrũ rĩacio matekũmenya.”
Woe to you (scribes and Pharisees hypocrites *K*) for you are like graves unmarked, and the men who are walking above not do know [it].
45 Mũrutani ũmwe wa Watho akĩmũcookeria, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũrutani, rĩrĩa ũkwaria maũndũ macio-rĩ, nĩũratũruma o na ithuĩ.”
Answering now one of the lawyers says to Him; Teacher, these things saying also us You insult.
46 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “O na inyuĩ arutani a Watho kaĩ mũrĩ na haaro-ĩ! Tondũ mũkuuithagia andũ mĩrigo mĩritũ ĩrĩa matangĩhota gũkuua, na inyuĩ ene mũtingĩmĩhutia o na kaara kamwe mũmateithie.
And He said; Also to you lawyers woe! For you burden the men [with] burdens heavy to bear and yourselves with one of the fingers of you not do touch the burdens.
47 “Kaĩ mũrĩ na haaro-ĩ! Tondũ mwakagĩra anabii mbĩrĩra, o arĩa mooragirwo nĩ maithe manyu ma tene.
Woe to you, for you build the tombs of the prophets, yet the fathers of you killed them.
48 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũgakĩruta ũira atĩ nĩmwĩtĩkanĩtie na ũrĩa maithe manyu meekire; atĩ nĩo mooragire anabii, na inyuĩ mũkamaakĩra mbĩrĩra.
So (witnesses *N(k)O*) (you are *no*) and you consent to the works of the fathers of you; For they themselves indeed killed them, you yourselves however build (of them *K*) (the *k*) (monuments. *K*)
49 Tondũ wa ũguo ũũgĩ wa Ngai uugĩte atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩngamatũmĩra anabii na atũmwo, moorage amwe ao na manyariire arĩa angĩ.’
Because of this also the Wisdom of God said; I will send to them prophets and apostles. and [some] of them they will kill and (will pursue *N(k)O*)
50 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio rũciaro rũrũ nĩrũgaciirithĩrio thakame ya anabii othe ĩrĩa yanaitwo kuuma o kĩambĩrĩria gĩa thĩ,
so that may be charged the blood of all the prophets which (poured out *N(k)O*) from [the] foundation of [the] world against generation this,
51 kuuma thakame ya Habili nginya thakame ya Zekaria ũrĩa woragĩirwo gatagatĩ-inĩ ga kĩgongona na handũ harĩa hatheru. Ĩĩ nĩguo, ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ, rũciaro rũrũ nĩrũkaherithĩrio thakame ĩyo.
from (the *k*) blood of Abel until (the *k*) blood of Zechariah the [one] having perished between the altar and the house. Yes I say to you, it will be required of generation this.
52 “Kaĩ mũrĩ na haaro inyuĩ arutani a watho-ĩ! Tondũ nĩmweheretie kĩhingũro kĩa ũmenyo. Inyuĩ ene mũtiigana gũtoonya, na arĩa marenda gũtoonya mũkamagiria.”
Woe to you lawyers, for you have taken away the key of the knowledge. You yourselves not did enter and those entering you hindered.
53 Jesũ aarĩkia kuuma kũu, Afarisai na arutani a watho makĩambĩrĩria kũmũkararia marĩ na ũũru mũno na kũmũũgita na kũmũũria ciũria nĩguo aarie maũndũ maingĩ,
(And from there And from there *no*) (when was expressing *N(k)O*) (now *k*) He (these things to them *k*) [then] began the scribes and the Pharisees urgently to press upon [Him] and to make speak Him about many things
54 makĩgeria kũmũtega maigue kana nĩ harĩ ũndũ mũũrũ angĩaria.
watching Him (and *K*) (seeking *KO*) to catch in something out of the mouth of Him (so that they may accuse him. *KO*)
