< Luka 4 >
1 Nake Jesũ akiuma kũu Jorodani aiyũrĩtwo nĩ Roho Mũtheru, agĩtwarwo nĩ Roho werũ-inĩ,
THEN Jesus full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the spirit into the wilderness,
2 kũrĩa aagereirio nĩ mũcukani matukũ mĩrongo ĩna. Ndaarĩĩaga kĩndũ matukũ-inĩ macio, namo maathira agĩkorwo arĩ mũhũũtu.
being tempted forty days by the devil; and did eat nothing during those days: and when they were ended, afterwards he was hungry.
3 Nake mũcukani akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo wee nĩwe Mũrũ wa Ngai, ĩra ihiga rĩrĩ rĩtuĩke mũgate.”
And the devil said to him, If thou art the Son of God, command this stone that it become a loaf.
4 Nake Jesũ akĩmĩcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: ‘To mũgate wiki ũngĩtũũria mũndũ muoyo.’”
And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.”
5 Ningĩ mũcukani akĩmũtwara handũ hatũũgĩru mũno, na gwa kahinda kanini mũno akĩmuonia mothamaki mothe ma gũkũ thĩ.
And the devil taking him up into an exceeding high mountain, displayed before him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time:
6 Agĩcooka akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩngũkũhe wathani wa kũu guothe na riiri wakuo wothe, nĩgũkorwo nĩiheanĩtwo kũrĩ niĩ, na no ndĩciheane kũrĩ mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa ingĩenda kũhe.
and the devil said unto him, I will give thee all this authority, and the glory of these; for to me it is delivered, and to whomsoever I will, I give it.
7 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ũngĩnyinamĩrĩra ũhooe, mothe megũtuĩka maku.”
If therefore thou wilt worship before me, all shall be thine.
8 Jesũ akĩmũcookeria, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: ‘Hooyaga Mwathani Ngai waku na ũmũtungatagĩre o we wiki.’”
And Jesus answering him, said, Get thee behind me, Satan, for it is written, “Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and to him alone shalt thou pay divine honour.”
9 Nake mũcukani akĩmũtwara Jerusalemu, na akĩmũrũgamia gathũrũmũndũ-inĩ ka hekarũ, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo wee nĩwe Mũrũ wa Ngai, wĩgũithie thĩ kuuma haha.
And he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on a wing of the temple, and said to him, If thou art the Son of God, cast thy self down from hence:
10 Nĩgũkorwo nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “‘Nĩagaatha araika ake nĩ ũndũ waku makũmenyerere wega;
for it is written, “He shall give his angels a charge over thee, to guard thee safely;
11 ningĩ nĩmagakwanĩrĩria na moko mao, nĩgeetha ndũkaringwo kũgũrũ nĩ ihiga.’”
and that in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.”
12 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Maandĩko moigĩte atĩrĩ: ‘Ndũkanagerie Mwathani Ngai waku.’”
And Jesus answering said unto him, It is said, “Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.”
13 Rĩrĩa mũcukani aarĩkirie kũmũgeria na njĩra ciothe-rĩ, akĩmũtiga nginya ihinda rĩrĩa rĩagĩrĩire rĩkoneka.
And when the devil had closed all the temptation, he departed from him for a season.
14 Nake Jesũ agĩcooka Galili arĩ na hinya wa Roho, nayo ngumo yake ĩkĩhunja kũu bũrũri ũcio wothe.
And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee: and a report went out into all the region round about concerning him.
15 Nake nĩarutanaga thunagogi-inĩ ciao, nao andũ othe makĩmũkumia.
And he taught in their synagogues, being universally admired.
16 Na rĩrĩ, nĩathiire Nazarethi, kũrĩa aarereirwo, na agĩtoonya thunagogi mũthenya wa Thabatũ, o ta ũrĩa aamenyerete gwĩka. Nake akĩrũgama na igũrũ athome Maandĩko.
And he came to Nazareth, where he was brought up; and he went, according to his usual custom, into the synagogue on the sabbath-day, and rose up to read.
17 Akĩnengerwo ibuku rĩa gĩkũnjo rĩa mũnabii Isaia. Akĩrĩkũnjũra, akĩona harĩa handĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ:
And there was given to him the book of the prophet Isaiah: and unrolling the volume, he found the passage where it is written,
18 “Roho wa Mwathani arĩ igũrũ rĩakwa, nĩ ũndũ nĩanjitĩrĩirie maguta nĩguo hunjagĩrie arĩa athĩĩni Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega. Nĩandũmĩte thiĩ nyanĩrĩre kuohorwo kwa arĩa moheetwo, na atĩ arĩa atumumu nĩmegũcooka kuona, na njohorithie arĩa mahinyĩrĩirio,
“The spirit of the Lord is upon me, for the work whereunto he hath anointed me; he hath sent me to preach glad tidings to the poor; to heal the contrite in heart; to proclaim liberty to the captives; and restore sight to the blind; to send forth the bruised free from bonds;
19 ningĩ nyanĩrĩre mwaka wa gwĩtĩkĩrĩka wa Mwathani.”
to publish the acceptable year of the Lord.”
20 Agĩcooka agĩkũnja ibuku rĩu rĩa gĩkũnjo, agĩcookeria mũmenyereri wa thunagogi, agĩikara thĩ. Nao andũ arĩa othe maarĩ thunagogi makĩmũrora.
And rolling up the volume, he gave it to the attendant officer, and sat down. And the eyes of all who were in the synagogue were attentively fixed on him.
21 Nake akĩambĩrĩria kwaria, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ũmũthĩ maandĩko maya nĩ mahingio mũkĩĩiguagĩra.”
And he began to say to them, To day this scripture is fulfilled in your ears.
22 Nao andũ othe makĩmũgaatha na makĩgegio mũno nĩ ciugo njega iria cioimaga kanua gake. Makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Githĩ ũyũ ti mũrũ wa Jusufu?”
And all concurred in their testimony to him, and marvelled at the gracious words which proceeded from his mouth. And they said, Is not this the son of Joseph?
23 Nake Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ nĩ mũkũnjĩĩra thimo ĩrĩa yugaga atĩrĩ, ‘Ndagĩtarĩ, wĩĩhonie wee mwene! Maũndũ marĩa tũiguĩte atĩ nĩ wekire kũu Kaperinaumu meeke gũkũ itũũra-inĩ rĩaku.’”
And he said unto them, Ye will probably say to me this parable, Physician, heal thyself! the works which we have heard to have been performed by thee at Capernaum, do the like here in thy own country.
24 Agĩthiĩ na mbere kuuga atĩrĩ, “Ngũmwĩra na ma, gũtirĩ mũnabii wĩtĩkagĩrwo itũũra-inĩ rĩake.
But he said, Verily, I say unto you, that no prophet is acceptable in his own country.
25 Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, nĩ kwarĩ atumia aingĩ a ndigwa Isiraeli matukũ-inĩ ma Elija, rĩrĩa igũrũ rĩarĩ ihinge mĩaka ĩtatũ na nuthu, na ngʼaragu nene ĩkĩiyũra bũrũri wothe.
Now I tell you of a certainty, that there were many widows in the days of Elias, in Israel, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, so that a grievous famine was upon all the land.
26 No Elija ndaigana gũtũmwo kũrĩ o na ũmwe wao, tiga kũrĩ mũtumia wa ndigwa ũrĩa watũire itũũra rĩa Zarefathu kũu bũrũri wa Sidoni.
And unto none of them was Elias sent, but unto Sarepta, a city of Sidon, to a widow woman.
27 Ningĩ nĩ kwarĩ andũ aingĩ maarĩ na mangũ thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli ihinda rĩa Elisha ũrĩa mũnabii, no gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe wao wahonirio tiga Naamani ũrĩa Mũsuriata.”
And many lepers were in Israel in the days of the prophet Elisha, and no one of them was cleansed, but Naaman the Syrian.
28 Andũ othe arĩa maarĩ thĩinĩ wa thunagogi nĩmarakarire mũno rĩrĩa maiguire ũguo.
And they were all filled with rage in the synagogue, when they heard these observations:
29 Magĩũkĩra makĩmũrutũrũra kuuma itũũra-inĩ rĩu, makĩmũtwara rwere-inĩ rwa karĩma harĩa itũũra rĩu rĩakĩtwo, nĩguo mamũikie na kũu kĩharũrũka-inĩ.
and rising up, dragged him out of the city, and led him to the brow of the hill, on which their city was built, in order to cast him down headlong:
30 Nowe Jesũ akĩgerera gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ, agĩĩthiĩra.
but he passing through the midst of them, went away.
31 Agĩcooka agĩikũrũka, agĩthiĩ Kaperinaumu, itũũra rĩarĩ Galili, na mũthenya wa Thabatũ akĩambĩrĩria kũruta andũ.
And he came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and was teaching them on the sabbath.
32 Nao andũ makĩgega nĩ ũndũ wa ũrutani wake, tondũ ndũmĩrĩri yake yarĩ ya wathani.
And they were struck with astonishment at his teaching; for his discourse was with authority.
33 Na rĩrĩ, kũu thĩinĩ wa thunagogi nĩ kwarĩ na mũndũ warĩ na ndaimono, nĩyo ngoma thũku. Nake akĩanĩrĩra na mũgambo mũnene, akiuga atĩrĩ,
And there was in the synagogue a man, who had a spirit of an unclean devil, and he roared out with a great cry,
34 “Hĩ! Ũrenda atĩa na ithuĩ, wee Jesũ wa Nazarethi? Ũũkĩte gũtũniina? Nĩngũũĩ, we nĩwe ũrĩa Mũtheru wa Ngai!”
saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, Jesus the Nazarean? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art; the Holy One of God.
35 Nake Jesũ akĩmĩkũma, akĩmĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Kira, na uume thĩinĩ wake!” Nayo ndaimono ĩyo ĩkĩgũithia mũndũ ũcio thĩ hau mbere yao othe, ĩkiuma na ndĩamũtihirie.
And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Stop thy mouth, and come out of him. And the devil throwing him down into the midst, came out of him, doing him no injury.
36 Nao andũ othe makĩgega makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ ũrutani ũyũ ũhaana atĩa? Araatha ngoma thũku arĩ na wathani na hinya, nacio ikoima!”
And amazement seized on all present, and they spake one to another, saying, What a word is this? for with authority and power he commandeth the unclean spirits, and they come out.
37 Nayo ngumo yake ĩkĩhunja kũrĩa guothe kwariganĩtie na kũu.
And the fame of him went forth into all the adjacent region.
38 Nake Jesũ akiuma thunagogi, agĩthiĩ mũciĩ gwa Simoni. Na rĩrĩ, nyina wa mũtumia wa Simoni aarĩ mũrũaru mũrimũ wa kũhiũha mwĩrĩ mũno, nao magĩthaitha Jesũ nĩ ũndũ wake.
Then rising up out of the synagogue, he came into the house of Simon: and Simon’s mother-in-law was seized with a violent fever, and they besought him on her behalf.
39 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, akĩinamĩrĩra harĩ we, na agĩatha mũrimũ ũcio uume mwĩrĩ wake, naguo ũkiuma. Nake mũtumia ũcio agĩũkĩra o rĩmwe na akĩambĩrĩria kũmatungatĩra.
And standing over her, he charged the fever to depart; and it left her: and immediately she arose, and waited upon them.
40 Na rĩrĩa riũa rĩathũaga, andũ makĩrehera Jesũ andũ arĩa othe maarĩ na mĩrimũ ngũrani, nake akĩmaigĩrĩra moko o mũndũ o mũndũ, akĩmahonia.
So when the sun was set, all who had any indisposed with various diseases, brought them to him; and laying his hands severally on each of them, he cured them.
41 O na ningĩ ndaimono ikiuma andũ aingĩ, ikĩanagĩrĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩwe Mũrũ wa Ngai!” Nowe agĩcikaania na agĩcigiria ciarie, tondũ nĩcioĩ atĩ nĩwe Kristũ.
And devils also went out of many, crying out, and saying, Thou art the Messiah the Son of God. And rebuking them, he suffered them not to speak: for they knew that he was the Messiah.
42 Na gwakĩa-rĩ, Jesũ akiumagara agĩthiĩ kũndũ gũtaarĩ andũ. Nao andũ makĩmũcaria, na rĩrĩa maakinyire harĩa aarĩ, makĩgeria kũmũgirĩrĩria ndakoime kũu amatige.
And as the day was coming on, he went forth and departed into a desert place: and the multitude sought him out, and came to him, and would have detained him that he should not leave them.
43 Nowe akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “No nginya hunjie Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa ũthamaki wa Ngai matũũra-inĩ marĩa mangĩ o namo, nĩ ũndũ nĩkĩo ndaatũmirwo.”
But he said unto them, I must preach the glad tidings of the kingdom of heaven in other cities also: for on this service am I sent.
44 Nake agĩthiĩ na mbere na kũhunjia thĩinĩ wa thunagogi cia Judea.
And he continued preaching in the synagogues of Galilee.
