< Luka 4 >

1 Nake Jesũ akiuma kũu Jorodani aiyũrĩtwo nĩ Roho Mũtheru, agĩtwarwo nĩ Roho werũ-inĩ,
Now Jesus being full of the holy Spirit, returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, being forty days tempted by the devil;
2 kũrĩa aagereirio nĩ mũcukani matukũ mĩrongo ĩna. Ndaarĩĩaga kĩndũ matukũ-inĩ macio, namo maathira agĩkorwo arĩ mũhũũtu.
and He did eat nothing in all those days: and when they were ended, at last 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 to become bread.
4 Nake Jesũ akĩmĩcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: ‘To mũgate wiki ũngĩtũũria mũndũ muoyo.’”
And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, that man shall not live by bread only, but on 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 high mountain, shewed Him all the kingdoms of the world in an instant,
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 said to Him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for it is committed to me, and I give it to whomsoever I will.
7 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ũngĩnyinamĩrĩra ũhooe, mothe megũtuĩka maku.”
Therefore, if thou wilt but worship me, they 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 with indignation, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and Him only shalt thou serve.
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 battlement of the temple, and said to Him, If thou art the Son of God, cast thyself 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 charge concerning thee,
11 ningĩ nĩmagakwanĩrĩria na moko mao, nĩgeetha ndũkaringwo kũgũrũ nĩ ihiga.’”
to keep thee, and they shall bear thee up in their hands, least thou dash thy foot against a stone.
12 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Maandĩko moigĩte atĩrĩ: ‘Ndũkanagerie Mwathani Ngai waku.’”
And Jesus answered 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 ended all the temptation, he departed from Him for a time.
14 Nake Jesũ agĩcooka Galili arĩ na hinya wa Roho, nayo ngumo yake ĩkĩhunja kũu bũrũri ũcio wothe.
And Jesus returned by the influence of the Spirit into Galilee: and a fame was spread through all the country round about concerning Him:
15 Nake nĩarutanaga thunagogi-inĩ ciao, nao andũ othe makĩmũkumia.
and He taught in their synagogues with universal applause.
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 had been brought up: and according to his custom He went into the synagogue on the sabbath-day, and stood up to read.
17 Akĩnengerwo ibuku rĩa gĩkũnjo rĩa mũnabii Isaia. Akĩrĩkũnjũra, akĩona harĩa handĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ:
And there was delivered to Him the book of the prophet Esaias; and opening the book, He found the place where it was 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 to the end, for which He hath anointed me: He hath sent me to publish good tidings to the poor, to heal the broken-hearted, to proclaim deliverance to the captives, and recovery of sight to the blind, to release them that are bruised,
19 ningĩ nyanĩrĩre mwaka wa gwĩtĩkĩrĩka wa Mwathani.”
and to preach 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 He folded up the book, and gave it again to the minister, and sat down: and the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed upon Him.
21 Nake akĩambĩrĩria kwaria, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ũmũthĩ maandĩko maya nĩ mahingio mũkĩĩiguagĩra.”
And He said unto them, this day is this scripture 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 they all bare witness to Him, and wondered at the gracefulness of the words, which proceeded from his mouth, and 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, No doubt ye will apply to me this proverb, "Physician, cure thyself, and do here in thy own country what we have heard were done at Capernaum."
24 Agĩthiĩ na mbere kuuga atĩrĩ, “Ngũmwĩra na ma, gũtirĩ mũnabii wĩtĩkagĩrwo itũũra-inĩ rĩake.
But, said He, indeed I must tell you, that no prophet is well received 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.
And I assure you, there were many widows in Israel, in the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up for three years and six months, and there was a great famine through 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.
but Elias was sent to none of those widows, but to a widow-woman at Sarepta in the territory of Sidon.
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.”
There were also many lepers in Israel, in the time of Elisha the prophet, and none of them was cleansed; but Naaman the Syrian was.
28 Andũ othe arĩa maarĩ thĩinĩ wa thunagogi nĩmarakarire mũno rĩrĩa maiguire ũguo.
And all the synagogue were filled with rage, when they heard these things,
29 Magĩũkĩra makĩmũrutũrũra kuuma itũũra-inĩ rĩu, makĩmũtwara rwere-inĩ rwa karĩma harĩa itũũra rĩu rĩakĩtwo, nĩguo mamũikie na kũu kĩharũrũka-inĩ.
and they rose up and drove Him out of the city, and dragged Him to the brow of the hill, on which their city was built, in order to throw Him down the precipice.
30 Nowe Jesũ akĩgerera gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ, agĩĩthiĩra.
But He passed through the midst of them, and 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 taught them on the sabbath-days,
32 Nao andũ makĩgega nĩ ũndũ wa ũrutani wake, tondũ ndũmĩrĩri yake yarĩ ya wathani.
and they were astonished at his doctrine; for He spake 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 a man in the synagogue possessed by the spirit of an impure demon, and he cried out with a loud voice,
34 “Hĩ! Ũrenda atĩa na ithuĩ, wee Jesũ wa Nazarethi? Ũũkĩte gũtũniina? Nĩngũũĩ, we nĩwe ũrĩa Mũtheru wa Ngai!”
saying, Let us alone, what hast thou to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know 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.
but Jesus rebuked him, saying, Be silent, and come out of him. And the demon threw him down in the midst of the assembly, and came out of him, having done him no hurt.
36 Nao andũ othe makĩgega makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ ũrutani ũyũ ũhaana atĩa? Araatha ngoma thũku arĩ na wathani na hinya, nacio ikoima!”
And they were all amazed, and said one to another, What a speech is this? for with authority and power He commandeth the impure spirits, and they come out!
37 Nayo ngumo yake ĩkĩhunja kũrĩa guothe kwariganĩtie na kũu.
And his fame spread all over the country round about.
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.
And He rose up and went out of the synagogue, and came into the house of Simon: now Simon's wife's mother had a violent fever, and they intreated 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 he stood over her, and rebuked the fever, 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.
And at sun-set all that had any persons sick of any diseases, brought them to Him: and He laid his hands on every one of them and healed 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 demons also came out from many, crying out, Thou art the Messiah the Son of God. And He rebuked them, and suffered them not to say, that they knew Him to be the Christ.
42 Na gwakĩa-rĩ, Jesũ akiumagara agĩthiĩ kũndũ gũtaarĩ andũ. Nao andũ makĩmũcaria, na rĩrĩa maakinyire harĩa aarĩ, makĩgeria kũmũgirĩrĩria ndakoime kũu amatige.
And when the day was coming on, He went out and retired into a solitary place; and the people sought for Him, and came to Him, and would fain have detained Him, that He might not go from 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 kingdom of God to other cities also: for therefore am I sent.
44 Nake agĩthiĩ na mbere na kũhunjia thĩinĩ wa thunagogi cia Judea.
So He went on preaching in the synagogues of Galilee.
