Luka 12
1 O hĩndĩ ĩyo, rĩrĩa kĩrĩndĩ kĩa andũ ngiri nyingĩ kĩonganĩte hamwe, nginya makarangana-rĩ, Jesũ akĩamba kwarĩria arutwo ake, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mwĩmenyererei ndawa ya kũimbia mĩgate ya Afarisai, na nĩyo ũhinga.
In these [times] when were gathering the myriads of the crowd so as to trample upon one another He began to say to the disciples of Him first; do take heed to yourselves of the leaven which is hypocrisy of the Pharisees.
2 Gũtirĩ ũndũ mũhithanie ũtakaguũrio, o na kana ũndũ mũhithe ũtakamenyeka.
No [thing] now concealed is which not will be revealed, nor hidden which not will be known.
3 Maũndũ marĩa mwarĩirie nduma-inĩ, makaiguuo mũthenya barigici, na ũrĩa wothe mwanahehanĩrĩra matũ-inĩ mũrĩ tũnyũmba twa thĩinĩ, nĩũkanĩrĩrwo kuuma nyũmba igũrũ.
Instead that as much as in the darkness you have said in the light will be heard, and what into the ear you have spoken in the inner rooms will be proclaimed upon the housetops.
4 “Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ arata akwa, tigagai gwĩtigĩra arĩa mooragaga mwĩrĩ na thuutha ũcio gũtirĩ ũndũ mangĩhota gwĩka.
I say now to you those friends of Mine; not you may fear because of those killing the body and after these things not being able more excessive anything to do.
5 No nĩ ngũmuonia ũrĩa inyuĩ mwagĩrĩirwo nĩ gwĩtigĩra: Mwĩtigagĩrei ũrĩa ũngĩũraga mwĩrĩ na thuutha wa ũguo arĩ na ũhoti wa gũikia mũndũ Jehanamu. Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, mwĩtigagĩrei ũcio. (Geenna g1067)
I will show however you whom you may fear: do fear the [One who] after the killing has authority to cast into hell. Yes I say to you; Him do fear. (Geenna g1067)
6 Githĩ tũnyoni tũtano tũtiendagio tũthendi twĩrĩ? No rĩrĩ, gũtirĩ o na kamwe gatuo Ngai ariganagĩrwo nĩko.
Surely five sparrows (are being sold for *N(k)O*) assarion two? And one of them not is forgotten before God;
7 No ti-itherũ, o na njuĩrĩ cianyu cia mũtwe nĩ ndare. Tigagai gwĩtigĩra, inyuĩ mũrĩ a bata gũkĩra tũnyoni tũingĩ.
But even the hairs of the head of you all have been numbered. Not (therefore *K*) do fear; than many sparrows you are more valuable.
8 “Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ, ũrĩa wothe ũkanyumbũra mbere ya andũ, o nake Mũrũ wa Mũndũ nĩakamumbũra mbere ya araika a Ngai.
I say now to you; everyone who maybe (may confess *NK(o)*) in Me myself before the men, also the Son of Man will confess in him before the angels of God;
9 No ũrĩa ũkangaana mbere ya andũ ũcio nĩagakaanwo mbere ya araika a Ngai.
the [one] now having denied Me before men will be denied before the angels of God.
10 Nake mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa ũgaacambia Mũrũ wa Mũndũ nĩakarekerwo, no ũrĩa wothe ũkaruma Roho Mũtheru ndakarekerwo.
And everyone who will speak a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven to him; to the [one] however [who] against the Holy Spirit having blasphemed not will be forgiven.
11 “Rĩrĩa mũgaatwarwo mbere ya thunagogi, na mbere ya aathani na anene mũciirithio-rĩ, mũtikanetange na ũrĩa mũgacookia kana ũrĩa mũkoiga,
When then (they may bring in *N(k)O*) you before the synagogues and the rulers and the authorities, not (may be anxious *N(k)O*) how or what you may present a defense or what you may say;
12 nĩgũkorwo hĩndĩ ĩyo Roho Mũtheru nĩakamũruta ũrĩa mwagĩrĩirwo nĩ kuuga.”
the for Holy Spirit will teach you in same the hour what it behooves [you] to say.
13 Mũndũ ũmwe warĩ gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ acio akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũrutani, ĩra mũrũ wa maitũ tũgayane nake igai riitũ.”
Said then one from the crowd to Him: Teacher, do say to the brother of mine to divide with me the inheritance.
14 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũyũ, nũũ ũnduĩte wa kũmũtuithania ciira kana wa kũmũgayania indo cianyu?”
And He said to him; Man, who Me appointed (a judge *N(k)O*) or partitioner over you?
15 Agĩcooka akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mwĩmenyererei! Mũtigakorokere maũndũ; nĩgũkorwo muoyo wa mũndũ ndũthimagwo na mũigana wa indo iria arĩ nacio.”
He said then to them; do watch and do keep yourselves from (all *N(k)O*) covetousness, for not in the abounding to anyone the life (to him *NK(o)*) is of the possessions (of him. *N(k)O*)
16 Agĩcooka akĩmahe ũhoro na ngerekano, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mũgũnda wa mũndũ ũmwe gĩtonga nĩwaciarire mũno.
He spoke then a parable to them saying; Of a man certain rich brought forth abundantly the ground.
17 Nake akĩĩyũria na ngoro yake atĩrĩ, ‘Ngwĩka atĩa? Ndirĩ na handũ ha kũiga magetha makwa.’
And he was reasoning within himself saying; What shall I do for not I have where I will store up the fruits of mine?
18 “Agĩcooka akiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩndamenya ũrĩa ngwĩka. Ngũtharia makũmbĩ makwa, njake mangĩ manene kũrĩ mo, njige magetha makwa mothe na indo ciakwa ciothe kuo.
And he said; This will I do: I will tear down my barns and greater will build and will store up there all (the grain *N(k)O*) (of mine *k*) and the goods of mine
19 Njooke njĩĩre ngoro yakwa atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩ na indo nyingĩ njega wĩigĩire cia gũkũigana mĩaka mĩingĩ. Wĩhuurũkĩre, ũrĩe na ũnyue, na ũcanjamũke.”’
And I will say to the soul of mine; Soul, you have many good things laid up for years many. do rest yourself do eat, do drink, do be merry.
20 “No Ngai akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Wee kĩrimũ gĩkĩ! Ũtukũ ũyũ wa ũmũthĩ nĩũgwĩtio muoyo waku. Indo icio wĩigĩire-rĩ, igaatuĩka cia ũ?’
Said then to him God; Fool! On this night the soul of you (is required *NK(o)*) of you. what now you did prepare — to whom will [it] be?
21 “Ũguo nĩguo gũgaatuĩka harĩ mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa wĩigagĩra mĩthithũ, no akaaga gwĩtongia na ũhoro wa Ngai.”
So [is] the [one] treasuring up for himself and not toward God being rich.
22 Jesũ agĩcooka akĩĩra arutwo ake atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ, mũtigetangage nĩ ũndũ wa mĩoyo yanyu nĩ ũndũ wa kĩrĩa mũrĩrĩĩaga, kana kĩrĩa mũrĩhumbaga mĩĩrĩ yanyu.
He said then to the disciples of Him; Because of this I say to you: not do be anxious for the life (of you *k*) what you may eat, nor [be anxious] for the body (of you *o*) what you may put on.
23 Muoyo-rĩ, ũrĩ bata gũkĩra irio, naguo mwĩrĩ ũrĩ bata gũkĩra nguo.
The (for *no*) life more is than the food, and the body than the clothing.
24 Ta mwĩciiriei ũhoro wa mahuru: Matihaandaga kana makagetha, o na matirĩ kũndũ gwa kũiga irio kana makũmbĩ, no Ngai nĩamaheaga irio. Inyuĩ githĩ mũtirĩ a bata mũno gũkĩra nyoni!
do consider the ravens that not they sow nor they reap to them not there is a storehouse nor [is] barn — and God feeds them; How much more you yourselves are valuable than the birds?
25 Nũũ wanyu ũngĩhota kuongerera muoyo wake ithaa o na rĩmwe nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩtanga?
Which now of you being anxious is able to the lifespan of him to add hour (one? *ko*)
26 Rĩu-rĩ, angĩkorwo mũtingĩhota gwĩka ũndũ mũnini ũguo-rĩ, mũgĩtangĩkaga na maũndũ macio mangĩ nĩkĩ?”
If then (not even *N(k)O*) [the] least you are able [to do], why about the rest are you anxious?
27 Ta mwĩcũraniei ũrĩa itoka ikũraga. Itirutaga wĩra kana ikogotha ndigi. No ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ, o na Solomoni arĩ na riiri wake wothe, ndaagemete ta kĩmwe gĩacio.
do consider the lilies how they grow: Not do they labor nor do they spin. I say however to you; not even Solomon in all the glory of him was arrayed as one of these.
28 Angĩkorwo ũguo nĩguo Ngai ahumbaga nyeki ya gĩthaka, ĩrĩa ĩrĩ ho ũmũthĩ na rũciũ igaikio mwaki-inĩ-rĩ, githĩ inyuĩ ndarĩkĩmũhumbaga makĩria, inyuĩ mwĩtĩkĩtie o hanini!
If however in [the] (*ko*) field the grass being [here] today and tomorrow into [the] furnace being thrown God thus (dresses, *N(k)O*) how much more you, O [you] of little faith?
29 Tigagai gũthĩĩnĩka ngoro-inĩ cianyu nĩ ũndũ wa kĩrĩa mũrĩrĩĩaga kana mũrĩnyuuaga; mũtigatangĩkage nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo.
And you yourselves not do seek what you may eat (and *N(k)O*) what you may drink, and not do worry yourself.
30 Nĩgũkorwo maũndũ maya mothe nĩmo andũ a gũkũ thĩ arĩa matetĩkĩtie Ngai macaranagia namo, no Ithe wanyu nĩoĩ atĩ nĩmũbatarĩtio nĩmo.
these things for all the nations of the world (seek for; *N(k)O*) of you now the Father knows that you have need of these.
31 No rĩrĩ, caragiai ũthamaki wake, na maũndũ maya mangĩ mothe nĩmũrĩheagwo o namo.
But do seek the kingdom (*k*) (of Him *N(K)O*) and these things (all things *K*) will be added to you.
32 “Tigagai gwĩtigĩra, inyuĩ rũũru rũrũ rũnini, nĩgũkorwo Ithe wanyu nĩonete arĩ wega kũmũhe ũthamaki ũcio.
Not do fear, O little flock, for took delight the Father of you to give you the kingdom.
33 Endiai indo iria mũrĩ nacio mũcooke mũteithie athĩĩni. Mwĩthondekerei ibeeti cia mbeeca iria itangĩtarũka, na mwĩgĩĩre na kĩgĩĩna igũrũ kĩrĩa gĩtangĩthira, kũrĩa gũtarĩ mũici ũngĩkuhĩrĩria na gũtirĩ memenyi cia gũkĩananga
do sell the possessions of you and do give alms; do make to yourselves purses not growing old, a treasure unfailing in the heavens where thief not does draw near nor moth destroy;
34 Nĩgũkorwo o kũrĩa mĩthiithũ wanyu ĩrĩ, nokuo ngoro cianyu o nacio irĩkoragwo irĩ.
Where for is the treasure of you, there also the heart of you will be.
35 “Ikaragai mwĩhotorete, mwĩhaarĩirie gũtungata, na mũige matawa manyu magĩakanaga,
should be your waist girded and the lamps burning,
36 o ta andũ metereire mwathi wao acooke kuuma iruga-inĩ rĩa kĩhikanio, nĩguo rĩrĩa agaacooka, aaringaringa mũrango mamũhingũrĩre o narua.
and you yourselves like to men waiting for the master of themselves whenever (he may return *N(k)O*) from the wedding feasts, that having come and having knocked immediately they may open to him.
37 Nĩũgakorwo ũrĩ ũndũ mwega harĩ ndungata iria mwathi wacio agaakora ciĩiguĩte rĩrĩa agacooka. Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, nĩakehotora acitungatĩre, aciikarie metha-inĩ, na acooke acirehere irio irĩe.
Blessed [are] the servants those whom having come the master will find watching; Amen I say to you that he will gird himself and he will make recline them, and having come up he will serve them.
38 Nĩũgakorwo ũrĩ ũndũ mwega harĩ ndungata iria mwathi wacio agaakora ciĩhaarĩirie, o na angĩgooka ũtukũ gatagatĩ kana thaa kenda gũgĩkĩa.
And if And if (he may come *k*) in the second (watch *k*) (and if and if *N(k)O*) in the third watch he may come and he may find [them] thus, blessed are (*ko*) (servants *KO*) those!
39 No rĩrĩ, menyai ũũ: Korwo mwene nyũmba nĩamenyete ithaa rĩrĩa mũici egũũka-rĩ, ndangĩarekire nyũmba yake ĩtuuo.
This however do know that if had known the master of the house in what hour the thief is coming, not (he watched *KO*) (maybe *K*) (and *KO*) maybe he have allowed (to be broken into *N(k)O*) the house of him.
40 O na inyuĩ no nginya mũikarage mwĩhaarĩirie, tondũ Mũrũ wa Mũndũ agooka ithaa rĩrĩa mũtamwĩrĩgĩrĩire.”
Also you yourselves (therefore *K*) do be ready, for in the hour not you expect the Son of Man comes.
41 Petero akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, nĩ ithuĩ ũrahe ũhoro na ngerekano ĩno kana ũreera mũndũ o wothe?”
Said then (to him *k*) Peter; Lord, to us parable this speak You or also to all?
42 Nake Mwathani agĩcookia akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ndungata ya kwĩhokwo na njũgĩ, o ĩrĩa mwathi wayo angĩĩhokera kũroraga ndungata ciake, na ĩciheage irio hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yagĩrĩire, nĩĩrĩkũ?
(And *no*) said (now *k*) the Lord; Who then is the faithful manager (the *N(k)O*) wise whom will set the master over the care [of servants] of him to give [them] in season the measure of food?
43 Nĩũgakorwo ũrĩ ũndũ mwega harĩ ndungata ĩyo, ĩrĩa mwathi wayo agooka akore ĩgĩĩka ũguo.
Blessed [is] the servant that [one] whom having come the master of him will find doing thus.
44 Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, nĩakamĩĩhokera indo ciake ciothe.
Of a truth I say to you that over all the possessions of him he will set him.
45 No rĩrĩ, ĩ ndungata ĩyo ĩngĩĩra na ngoro yayo atĩrĩ, ‘Mwathi wakwa ndaracooka narua,’ nayo yambĩrĩrie kũhũũra ndungata cia arũme na cia andũ-a-nja, na kũrĩa na kũnyua na kũrĩĩo-rĩ,
If however shall say the servant that [one] in the heart of him; Delays the master of Me to come, and shall begin to beat the men-servants and the maid-servants to eat also and to drink and to get drunk,
46 Mwathi wa ndungata ĩyo agooka mũthenya ũrĩa ĩtamwĩrĩgĩrĩire o na ithaa rĩrĩa ĩtooĩ, nake nĩakamĩherithia mũno, na amĩtuĩre ciira ta wa andũ arĩa matarĩ ehokeku.
will come the master of the servant that [one] in a day in which not he does expect and in an hour that not he knows and he will cut in two him and the place of him with the unbelievers will appoint.
47 “Ndungata ĩrĩa ĩmenyaga ũrĩa mwathi wayo endaga na ndĩĩhaaragĩria kana ĩgeeka ũrĩa Mwathi wayo endaga, ĩkaahũũrwo mahũũra maingĩ.
That [very] now servant the [one] having known the will of the master (of him *N(k)O*) and not having prepared (or *N(k)O*) having done according to the will of him will be beaten with many [blows].
48 No ĩrĩa ĩtooĩ na nĩĩkaga maũndũ marĩa magĩrĩire kũherithanĩrio, ĩkaahũũrwo mahũũra matarĩ maingĩ. Ũrĩa wothe ũheetwo indo nyingĩ, ageetio indo nyingĩ; nake ũrĩa wĩhokeirwo nyingĩ makĩria nĩageetio nyingĩ makĩria.
the [one] however not having known having done however [things] worthy of stripes will be beaten with few. Everyone now to whom has been given much, much will be required from him; and to whom has been committed much, more excessive will they ask of him.
49 “Njũkĩte kũrehe mwaki gũkũ thĩ, naarĩ korwo mwaki ũcio nĩwambĩrĩirie gwakana!
Fire I came to cast (upon *N(k)O*) the earth and how I wish if already it be kindled!
50 No ndĩ na ũbatithio ndĩrĩbatithio naguo, no kaĩ nĩngũthĩĩnĩka mũno ũngĩgaakinya-ĩ!
Baptism however I have to be baptized [with] and how I am distressed until (while *N(k)O*) it may be accomplished!
51 Mũgwĩciiria ndokire kũrehe thayũ gũkũ thĩ? Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ, ũguo tiguo, ndookire kũrehe nyamũkano.
Think you that peace I came to give on the earth? No, I say to you, but rather division.
52 Kuuma rĩu gũthiĩ na mbere, andũ atano a mũciĩ ũmwe marĩkoragwo magayũkanĩte, atatũ magookĩrĩra eerĩ, nao eerĩ magookĩrĩra atatũ.
There will be for from now five in one house divided, three against two and two against three
53 Nao marĩkoragwo magayũkanĩte ũũ, ithe agookĩrĩra mũriũ nake mũriũ agookĩrĩra ithe, nyina agookĩrĩra mwarĩ nake mwarĩ agookĩrĩra nyina, nyaciarawe agookĩrĩra mũtumia wa mũriũ nake mũtumia wa mũriũ agookĩrĩra nyaciarawe.”
(They will be divided *N(k)O*) father against son and son against father, mother against (*no*) (daughter *N(k)O*) and daughter against (*no*) (mother, *N(k)O*) mother-in-law against the daughter-in-law of her and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law (of her. *k*)
54 Jesũ akĩĩra kĩrĩndĩ kĩu atĩrĩ, “Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa muona itu rĩkĩambata riumĩte ithũĩro, o rĩmwe muugaga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩgũkuura mbura,’ na gũkoira.
He was saying now also to the crowds; When you may see a cloud rising up (from *N(k)O*) [the] west, immediately you say (that *no*) A shower is coming, and it happens so.
55 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa rũhuho rwahurutana ruumĩte gũthini muugaga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩgũkũgĩa na ũrugarĩ,’ na gũkagĩa.
And when a south wind is blowing, you say that Heat there will be, and it happens.
56 Inyuĩ hinga ici! Nĩmũũĩ wega gũkũũrana ũrĩa igũrũ na thĩ gũtariĩ. Mũkĩremagwo nĩgũkũũrana ũhoro wa mahinda maya tũrĩ nĩkĩ?
Hypocrites! The appearance of the earth and of the sky you know [how] to discern, the time however this how not (do you know *no*) (to discern? *N(k)O*)
57 “Mwagaga gwĩtuĩra inyuĩ ene ũrĩa kwagĩrĩire nĩkĩ?
Why now even for yourselves not judge you what [is] right?
58 Na rĩrĩ, rĩrĩa mũrathiĩ na thũ yaku kũrĩ mũciirithania-rĩ, geria mũno wĩiguithanie nayo mũrĩ o njĩra-inĩ, ndĩgagũkururie ĩgũtware kũrĩ mũciirithania, nake mũciirithania akũneane kũrĩ mũnene, nake mũnene ũcio agũikie njeera.
As for you are going with the adversary of you before a magistrate, in the way do give earnestness to have been set free from him otherwise otherwise he may drag away you to the judge, and the judge you (will deliver *N(k)O*) to the officer, and the officer you (will cast *N(k)(o)*) into prison.
59 Ngũkwĩra atĩrĩ, ndũkoima kuo ũtarĩhĩte thiirĩ wothe, hatarĩ gathendi ũgũtigia.”
I say to you; certainly not shall you come out from there until (of which *k*) even (the *N(k)O*) last lepton you may have paid.
