< Luka 5 >
1 Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya ũmwe Jesũ arũngiĩ hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria rĩa Genesareti, nakĩo kĩrĩndĩ kĩa andũ aingĩ nĩkĩahatĩkanaga kĩmũkuhĩrĩrie nĩguo gĩthikĩrĩrie ũhoro wa Ngai,
And it came to pass, in the multitude pressing on Him to hear the word of God, that He was standing beside the Lake of Gennesaret,
2 nake akĩona tũtarũ twĩrĩ hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria rĩu, tũtigĩtwo ho nĩ ategi a thamaki, arĩa maathambagia neti ciao cia gũtega.
and He saw two boats standing beside the lake, and the fishers, having gone away from them, were washing the nets,
3 Agĩtoonya gatarũ kamwe, nako kaarĩ ga Simoni, akĩmũthaitha agatoonyatoonyie maaĩ-inĩ, kehere hũgũrũrũ-inĩ. Agĩcooka agĩikara thĩ, akĩambĩrĩria kũruta andũ ũhoro arĩ gatarũ-inĩ kau.
and having entered into one of the boats, that was Simon’s, He asked him to put back a little from the land, and having sat down, was teaching the multitudes out of the boat.
4 Na aarĩkia kwaria, akĩĩra Simoni atĩrĩ, “Twara gatarũ haarĩa hariku, mũikũrũkie neti maaĩ-inĩ, mũtege thamaki.”
And when He left off speaking, He said to Simon, “Put back into the deep, and let down your nets for a catch”;
5 Nake Simoni akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Mwathi witũ, tũrutĩte wĩra mũritũ ũtukũ wothe, na tũtinanyiita kĩndũ o na kĩ. No tondũ nĩwoiga ũguo-rĩ, nĩngũikũrũkia neti.”
and Simon answering said to Him, “Master, through the whole night, having labored, we have taken nothing, but at Your saying I will let down the net.”
6 Maarĩkia gwĩka ũguo, makĩnyiita thamaki nyingĩ mũno, nginya neti ciao ikĩambĩrĩria gũtuĩka.
And having done this, they enclosed a great multitude of fishes, and their net was breaking,
7 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩheneria arĩa maarutithanagia wĩra nao, arĩa maarĩ gatarũ kau kangĩ moke mamateithie, nao magĩũka makĩiyũria tũtarũ twerĩ ki, o nginya tũkĩambĩrĩria gũtoonyerera maaĩ-inĩ.
and they beckoned to the partners who [are] in the other boat, having come, to help them; and they came, and filled both the boats, so that they were sinking.
8 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Simoni Petero onire ũguo, akĩĩgũithia maru-inĩ ma Jesũ, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Njeherera Mwathani; niĩ ndĩ mũndũ mwĩhia!”
And Simon Peter having seen, fell down at the knees of Jesus, saying, “Depart from me, because I am a sinful man, O Lord”;
9 Nĩgũkorwo we na arĩa othe maarĩ nao nĩmagegire mũno nĩ ũndũ wa thamaki iria maanyiitĩte,
for astonishment seized him, and all those with him, at the catch of the fishes that they took,
10 o na Jakubu na Johana, ariũ a Zebedi, arĩa maarutithanagia wĩra na Simoni nĩmagegire. Nake Jesũ akĩĩra Simoni atĩrĩ, “Tiga gwĩtigĩra; kuuma rĩu ũrĩtegaga andũ.”
and in like manner also James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon; and Jesus said to Simon, “Do not fear, from now on you will be catching men”;
11 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makiumĩria tũtarũ twao hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria, magĩtiga indo ciao ciothe, makĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
and they, having brought the boats on the land, having left all, followed Him.
12 Na rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ĩmwe rĩrĩa Jesũ aarĩ itũũra-inĩ rĩmwe-rĩ, nĩguokire mũndũ waiyũrĩtwo nĩ mangũ mwĩrĩ wothe. Na rĩrĩa onire Jesũ, akĩĩgũithia, agĩturumithia ũthiũ wake thĩ, akĩmũthaitha, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, ũngĩenda-rĩ, no ũũtherie.”
And it came to pass, in His being in one of the cities, that behold, a man full of leprosy, and having seen Jesus, having fallen on [his] face, he implored Him, saying, “Lord, if You may will, You are able to cleanse me”;
13 Jesũ agĩtambũrũkia guoko gwake, akĩhutia mũndũ ũcio, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ, nĩngwenda. Therio!” Na o hĩndĩ ĩyo akĩhonio mangũ.
and having stretched forth [His] hand, He touched him, having said, “I will, be cleansed”; and immediately the leprosy went away from him.
14 Jesũ agĩcooka akĩmũkaania, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ndũkeere mũndũ o na ũ, no thiĩ, ũkeyonanie kũrĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, na ũrute magongona marĩa Musa aathanire nĩ ũndũ wa gũtherio gwaku, arĩ ũira kũrĩ o.”
And He charged him to tell no one, “But having gone away, show yourself to the priest, and bring near for your cleansing according as Moses directed, for a testimony to them”;
15 Na rĩrĩ, ngumo yake ĩgĩkĩrĩrĩria kũhunja makĩria, o nginya kĩrĩndĩ kĩingĩ ma kĩa andũ gĩgĩũka kũmũthikĩrĩria na kũhonio mĩrimũ yao.
but the more was the report going abroad concerning Him, and great multitudes were coming together to hear, and to be healed by Him of their sicknesses,
16 No Jesũ nĩeheragĩra andũ, agathiĩ kũndũ gũtarĩ andũ kũhoera Ngai kuo.
and He was withdrawing Himself in the desolate places and was praying.
17 Mũthenya ũmwe nĩ kũrutana aarutanaga, nao Afarisai na arutani a watho arĩa mookĩte kuuma matũũra mothe ma Galili, na Judea, na Jerusalemu, maikarĩte thĩ hau. Naguo hinya wa Ngai wa kũhonania warĩ hamwe na Jesũ.
And it came to pass, on one of the days, that He was teaching, and there were sitting by Pharisees and teachers of the Law, who were come out of every village of Galilee, and Judea, and Jerusalem, and the power of the LORD was—to heal them.
18 Na rĩrĩ, nĩhookire andũ makuuĩte mũndũ na kĩbarĩ, warũarĩte mũrimũ wa gũkua ciĩga, nao makĩgeria kũmũtoonyia nyũmba mamũige harĩ Jesũ.
And behold, men carrying a man on a bed, who has been struck with palsy, and they were seeking to bring him in, and to place before Him,
19 Na rĩrĩa maagire njĩra ya gwĩka ũguo nĩ ũndũ wa ũingĩ wa andũ, makĩhaica nyũmba-igũrũ magĩtharia maturubarĩ, makĩmũikũrũkĩria mwanya-inĩ ũcio o arĩ kĩbarĩ-inĩ, nginya gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ acio makĩmũiga o hau Jesũ aarĩ.
and having not found by what way they may bring him in because of the multitude, having gone up on the housetop, through the tiles they let him down with the little bed, into the midst before Jesus,
20 Rĩrĩa Jesũ onire wĩtĩkio wao, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũrata, nĩwarekerwo mehia maku.”
and He having seen their faith, said to him, “Man, your sins have been forgiven you.”
21 Nao Afarisai na arutani a watho makĩambĩrĩria gwĩciiria ngoro-inĩ ciao, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ mũndũ ũyũ arĩ ũ, ũkũruma Ngai? Nũũ ũngĩhota kũrekanĩra mehia, tiga Ngai we wiki?”
And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, “Who is this that speaks evil words? Who is able to forgive sins, except God only?”
22 Nowe Jesũ nĩamenyaga ũrĩa meeciiragia na akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũreciiria maũndũ macio ngoro-inĩ cianyu nĩkĩ?
And Jesus having known their reasonings, answering, said to them, “What reason you in your hearts?
23 Nĩ ũndũ ũrĩkũ mũhũthũ; nĩ kwĩra mũndũ, ‘Nĩwarekerwo mehia maku,’ kana nĩ kũmwĩra, ‘Ũkĩra wĩtware’?
Which is easier—to say, Your sins have been forgiven you? Or to say, Arise, and walk?
24 No nĩgeetha mũmenye atĩ Mũrũ wa Mũndũ arĩ na ũhoti gũkũ thĩ wa kũrekanĩra mehia-rĩ ….” Akĩĩra mũndũ ũcio wakuĩte ciĩga atĩrĩ, “Ndakwĩra atĩrĩ, ũkĩra, oya kĩbarĩ gĩaku, ũinũke.”
And that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on the earth to forgive sins—(He said to the one struck with palsy)—I say to you, arise, and having taken up your little bed, be going on to your house.”
25 O hau hau akĩrũgama mbere yao, akĩoya kĩbarĩ kĩrĩa akomeire, na akĩinũka mũciĩ akĩgoocaga Ngai.
And immediately having risen before them, having taken up [that] on which he was lying, he went away to his house, glorifying God,
26 Nao andũ othe nĩmagegire na magĩkumia Ngai. Makĩiyũrwo nĩ guoya, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũmũthĩ nĩtuonete maũndũ tũtarĩ tuona.”
and astonishment took all, and they were glorifying God, and were filled with fear, saying, “We saw strange things today.”
27 Thuutha wa ũguo, Jesũ akiumagara na akĩona mũndũ warĩ mwĩtia wa mbeeca cia igooti wetagwo Lawi aikarĩte harĩa heetagĩrio mbeeca cia igooti. Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nũmĩrĩra.”
And after these things He went forth, and beheld a tax collector, by name Levi, sitting at the tax office, and said to him, “Follow Me”;
28 Nake Lawi agĩũkĩra, agĩtiga indo ciake ciothe, akĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
and he, having left all, having arisen, followed Him.
29 Lawi agĩcooka akĩrugithĩria Jesũ iruga inene gwake mũciĩ, na gĩkundi kĩnene kĩa etia mbeeca cia igooti o na andũ angĩ nĩmarĩĩanagĩra nao.
And Levi made a great entertainment to Him in his house, and there was a great multitude of tax collectors and others who were with them reclining,
30 No Afarisai na arutani a watho arĩa maarĩ a gĩkundi kĩao magĩtetia arutwo ake makĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũrĩĩanagĩra na mũkanyuuanĩra na etia mbeeca cia igooti na andũ ehia nĩkĩ?”
and the scribes and the Pharisees among them were murmuring at His disciples, saying, “Why do You eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”
31 Nake Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Andũ arĩa agima mĩĩrĩ tio mabataragio nĩ ndagĩtarĩ, no nĩ arĩa arũaru.
And Jesus answering said to them, “They who are well have no need of a physician, but they that are ill:
32 Niĩ ndiokire gwĩta andũ arĩa athingu, no nĩ arĩa ehia, nĩguo merire.”
I did not come to call righteous men, but sinners, to conversion.”
33 Nao makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Arutwo a Johana nĩ meehingaga kũrĩa irio kaingĩ kaingĩ makahooya, o nao arutwo a Afarisai nĩmekaga o ũguo, no aku marĩĩaga na makanyua hĩndĩ ciothe.”
And they said to Him, “Why do the disciples of John fast often, and make supplications—in like manner also those of the Pharisees—but Yours eat and drink?”
34 Nake Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “No mwĩre ageni a mũhikania mehinge kũrĩa rĩrĩa e hamwe nao?
And He said to them, “Are you able to make the sons of the bride-chamber—in the Bridegroom being with them—to fast?
35 No rĩrĩ, ihinda nĩrĩgakinya rĩrĩa mũhikania akeeherio kuuma kũrĩ o; matukũ-inĩ macio-rĩ, nĩ makeehinga kũrĩa irio.”
But days will come, and when the Bridegroom may be taken away from them, then they will fast in those days.”
36 Ningĩ Jesũ akĩmahe ũhoro na ngerekano ĩno, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩtinia kĩraka kuuma harĩ nguo njerũ, agĩĩkĩre nguo ngũrũ. Angĩĩka ũguo, angĩkorwo atarũrĩte nguo njerũ, nakĩo kĩraka kĩu kĩa nguo ĩyo njerũ kĩage kwagĩrĩra nguo ĩyo ngũrũ.
And He spoke also an allegory to them: “No one puts a patch of new clothing on old clothing, and if otherwise, the new also makes a split, and with the old the patch does not agree, that [is] from the new.
37 Ningĩ gũtirĩ mũndũ wĩkagĩra ndibei ya mũhihano mondo-inĩ ngũrũ. Angĩka ũguo, ndibei ĩyo ya mũhihano no ĩtarũre mondo icio, ndibei ĩyo ĩitĩke, nacio mondo icio itarũkange.
And no one puts new wine into old skins, and if otherwise, the new wine will burst the skins, and itself will be poured out, and the skins will be destroyed;
38 Aca, ti ta ũguo, ndibei ya mũhihano no nginya ĩĩkĩrwo mondo-inĩ njerũ.
but new wine is to be put into new skins, and both are preserved together;
39 O na gũtirĩ mũndũ thuutha wa kũnyua ndibei ngũrũ ũcookaga kwenda ndibei ĩyo ya mũhihano, nĩ ũndũ oigaga atĩrĩ, ‘Ĩrĩa ngũrũ nĩyo njega.’”
and no one having drunk old, immediately wishes new, for he says, The old is better.”
