< Luka 6 >
1 Mũthenya ũmwe wa Thabatũ, Jesũ akĩgerera mĩgũnda-inĩ ya ngano, nao arutwo ake makĩambĩrĩria gũtua ngira imwe cia ngano, magĩcirigitha na moko, makĩrĩa ngano.
And it came to pass on the second Sabbath, He was going through the cornfields; and His disciples were plucking the ears, and eating, shelling them out with their hands.
2 Afarisai amwe makĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ kĩratũma mwĩke ũrĩa gũtetĩkĩrĩtio nĩ watho mũthenya wa Thabatũ?”
And certain ones of the Pharisees said to them, Why are you doing that which is not lawful to do on the Sabbath?
3 Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ mũtathomete ũrĩa Daudi eekire, rĩrĩa we na arĩa maarĩ nake maarĩ ahũtu?
Jesus responded and said to them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was hungry, and those being with him?
4 Aatoonyire Nyũmba ya Ngai, akĩoya na akĩrĩa mĩgate ĩrĩa yamũrĩirwo Ngai, ĩrĩa ateetĩkĩrĩtio kũrĩa nĩ watho tiga no athĩnjĩri-Ngai meetĩkĩrĩtio kũmĩrĩa, na agĩcooka akĩhe arĩa maarĩ nake ĩmwe yayo.”
How he entered into the house of God, and how he took the shewbread, and ate it, and gave it to those with him; which is not lawful to eat, except the priests only?
5 Jesũ agĩcooka akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mũrũ wa Mũndũ nĩwe Mwathani wa Thabatũ.”
And He said to them, The Son of man is Lord of the Sabbath also.
6 Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya ũngĩ wa Thabatũ nĩathiire thunagogi-inĩ, akĩrutana, nakuo nĩ kwarĩ na mũndũ warĩ mwonju guoko gwake kwa ũrĩo.
And it came to pass on another Sabbath, that He came into the synagogue and taught, and a man was there, whose right hand was withered.
7 Nao Afarisai na arutani a watho nĩmacaragia ũndũ mangĩthitangĩra Jesũ, nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩmũrora mũno, mone kana nĩekũhonania mũthenya wa Thabatũ.
And the scribes and Pharisees were watching Him, if He will heal him on the Sabbath, in order that they may find accusation against Him.
8 Nowe Jesũ, tondũ nĩamenyaga ũrĩa meeciiragia, akĩĩra mũndũ ũcio wonjete guoko atĩrĩ, “Ũkĩra ũrũgame mbere ya andũ othe.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩũkĩra akĩrũgama hau.
But He knew their thoughts, and said to the man having the withered hand, Rise up, and stand in the midst; and he having arisen stood.
9 Jesũ agĩcooka akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ngũmũũria atĩrĩ, nĩ ũndũ ũrĩkũ mwĩtĩkĩrie nĩ watho mũthenya wa Thabatũ: nĩ gwĩka wega kana nĩ gwĩka ũũru, nĩ kũhonokia muoyo kana nĩ kũũniina?”
And Jesus said to them, I will ask you; What is lawful on the Sabbath; to do good, or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy?
10 Akĩĩhũgũra, akĩmarora othe, agĩcooka akĩĩra mũndũ ũcio atĩrĩ, “Tambũrũkia guoko gwaku.” Nake agĩĩka o ro ũguo; nakuo guoko gwake gũkĩhonio biũ.
And looking around upon them all, He said to him, Reach forth thy hand. And he did so: and his hand was restored.
11 Nao makĩrakara mũno, makĩambĩrĩria kũũrania ũrĩa mangĩĩka Jesũ.
And they were filled with rage; and they were talking one to another what they might do to Jesus.
12 Mũthenya ũmwe Jesũ nĩoimagarire agĩthiĩ kĩrĩma-inĩ akahooe, akĩraara akĩhooya Ngai ũtukũ wothe.
And it came to pass in those days, that He went out into the mountain to pray; and was there through the night in the prayer of God.
13 Gwakĩa-rĩ, agĩĩta arutwo ake moke harĩ we, agĩthuura andũ ikũmi na eerĩ ao, akĩmatua atũmwo, nao nĩ:
And when it was day, He called His disciples to Him: and having chosen twelve from them, whom He also named apostles;
14 Simoni (ũrĩa aatuire Petero), na Anderea mũrũ wa nyina, na Jakubu, na Johana, na Filipu, na Baritholomayo,
Simon, whom He also named Peter, and Andrew his brother, James and John. Philip and Bartholomew,
15 na Mathayo, na Toma, na Jakubu wa Alufayo, na Simoni ũrĩa wetagwo Zelote,
Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alpheus, and Simon called the Zealot;
16 na Judasi wa Jakubu, na Judasi Mũisikariota ũrĩa wamũkunyanĩire.
and Judas the brother of James, and Judas Iscariot, who also became His betrayer.
17 Nake Jesũ agĩikũrũka hamwe nao, makĩrũgama handũ haarĩ haraganu. Gĩkundi kĩnene kĩa arutwo ake kĩarĩ ho, o na andũ aingĩ mũno kuuma Judea guothe, na Jerusalemu, o na kuuma ndeere-inĩ cia Turo na Sidoni,
And having come down with them, He stood upon a level place, and a great multitude of His disciples, and a great crowd of people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and Tyre and Sidon by the sea, who came to hear Him, and to be healed of their diseases;
18 nao mookĩte nĩguo mamũigue na mahonio mĩrimũ yao. Nao arĩa maanyamaragio nĩ ngoma thũku makĩhonio,
and those troubled by unclean spirits; and they were getting healed.
19 nao andũ othe makĩgeria kũmũhutia, tondũ hinya nĩwoimaga thĩinĩ wake na ũkamahonia othe.
And the whole multitude sought to touch Him: because power was going out from Him, and was healing all.
20 Nake akĩrora arutwo ake, akiuga atĩrĩ: “Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ inyuĩ athĩĩni, nĩgũkorwo ũthamaki wa Ngai nĩ wanyu.
And He lifting up His eyes to His disciples, said, Blessed are ye poor: because the kingdom of God is yours.
21 Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ inyuĩ mũhũũtaga rĩu, nĩgũkorwo nĩmũkahũũnio. Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ inyuĩ mũrarĩra rĩu, nĩgũkorwo nĩmũgatheka.
Blessed are ye who hunger now: because ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye who weep now: because ye shall laugh.
22 Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ inyuĩ hĩndĩ ĩrĩa andũ mekũmũmena, na meyamũre kũrĩ inyuĩ, na mamũrume, na mathũkĩrĩrie rĩĩtwa rĩanyu, nĩ ũndũ wa Mũrũ wa Mũndũ.
Blessed are ye, when the people may hate you, and when they may separate you, and cast out your name as evil, for the sake of the Son of man.
23 “Mũthenya ũcio nĩmũgakena na mũrũgarũge, tondũ mũcaara wanyu nĩ mũingĩ Igũrũ. Nĩgũkorwo ũguo noguo maithe mao meekire anabii.
Rejoice in that day, and leap for joy: for behold your reward in heaven is great: for according to these things were their fathers accustomed to do to the prophets.
24 “No rĩrĩ, kaĩ mũrĩ na haaro inyuĩ itonga-ĩ, nĩgũkorwo nĩmũrĩkĩtie kwamũkĩra kũnyamarũrwo kwanyu.
Moreover woe unto you rich! because you exhaust your reward.
25 Kaĩ mũrĩ na haaro inyuĩ arĩa mũhũũniĩ rĩu-ĩ, nĩgũkorwo nĩmũkahũũta. Kaĩ mũrĩ na haaro arĩa mũratheka rĩu-ĩ, nĩgũkorwo nĩmũgacakaya na mũrĩre.
Woe unto you who are full! because you shall hunger. Woe unto you who are now laughing because you shall weep and mourn.
26 Kaĩ mũrĩ na haaro inyuĩ hĩndĩ ĩrĩa andũ othe mekũmũgaathĩrĩria-ĩ, nĩgũkorwo ũguo noguo maithe mao meekaga anabii a maheeni.
Woe unto you when all the people may speak well of you! because according to the same things their fathers were accustomed to do to the false prophets.
27 “No ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ inyuĩ arĩa mũũthikĩrĩirie: endagai thũ cianyu, na mwĩkage wega arĩa mamũthũire,
But I say unto you that hear, Love your enemies with divine love, and do good to those that hate you,
28 na ningĩ mũrathimage arĩa mamũrumaga, na mũhooyagĩre arĩa mamwĩkaga ũũru.
bless those who curse you, and pray for those who despitefully use you.
29 Na rĩrĩ, mũndũ angĩkũgũtha rũthĩa rũmwe, mũhũgũkĩrie rũu rũngĩ o naruo. Na mũndũ angĩgũtunya igooti rĩaku, ndũkamũgirie kuoya o na kanjũ yaku.
To the one smiting thee on the cheek turn the other also; and from the one taking away thy cloak do not withhold even the coat.
30 Mũndũ o wothe angĩkũhooya kĩndũ mũhe, na mũndũ o wothe angĩoya kĩndũ gĩaku, ndũkamwĩtie.
Give to every one asking thee, and turn not away from the one taking thy possessions,
31 Ĩkagai andũ arĩa angĩ o ũrĩa mũngĩenda mamwĩkage.
And as you wish that the people may do unto you, do ye unto them even likewise.
32 “Rĩu-rĩ, angĩkorwo mwendete o arĩa mamwendete-rĩ, mwakĩĩguna na kĩ? O na ‘ehia’ nĩmendaga arĩa mamendete.
If you love those who love you, what grace is there to you? for even sinners love those who love them.
33 Na mũngĩkorwo mwĩkaga wega o arĩa mamwĩkaga wega-rĩ, mwakĩĩguna na kĩ? Nĩgũkorwo ehia o nao nĩmekaga o ũguo.
And if you may do good to those doing good to you, what grace is there to you? for sinners also do the same.
34 Na ningĩ mũngĩkorwo mũkombithagia o arĩa mwĩhokete nĩmakamũrĩha-rĩ, mwakĩĩguna na kĩ? O na ehia nĩmakombagĩra ehia arĩa angĩ, mehokete nĩmakarĩhwo ciothe.
And if you may lend to those from whom you may hope to receive, what grace is there to you? for sinners lend to sinners, that they may receive back the equivalent.
35 No rĩrĩ, endagai thũ cianyu, na mũciĩkage wega, o na mũkombithagie mũtekwĩhoka gũcookerio kĩndũ. Hĩndĩ ĩyo irĩhi rĩanyu nĩrĩkaneneha, na inyuĩ nĩmũgatuĩka ariũ a Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno, nĩgũkorwo we nĩaiguagĩra arĩa matarĩ ngaatho tha o na arĩa aaganu.
Moreover love your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping nothing in return; and your reward shall be great, and you shall be the sons of the Highest: because He is good to the ungrateful and wicked.
36 Iguanagĩrai tha, o ta ũrĩa Ithe wanyu aiguanagĩra tha.
Therefore be ye merciful, as your Father is indeed merciful.
37 “Mũtigaciirithanagie nĩgeetha na inyuĩ mũtikanaciirithio. Mũtigatuanagĩre, nĩgeetha na inyuĩ mũtikanatuĩrwo. Rekanagĩrai, na inyuĩ nĩmũkarekerwo.
And criticise not, and you can not be criticised. Condemn not, and you can not be condemned.
38 Heanagai, na inyuĩ nĩmũrĩheagwo na gĩthimi kĩega, gĩkindĩrĩtwo, kĩinainĩtio na gĩgaitĩkĩrĩra, nĩkĩo mũgaitĩrĩrwo nakĩo nguo-inĩ. Nĩgũkorwo gĩthimi kĩrĩa mũthimanagĩra nakĩo, no kĩo mũrĩthimagĩrwo nakĩo.”
Forgive, and you shall be forgiven: give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, heaped up, and shaken down, and running over, they will give into your bosom. For with the same measure, which you measure, it will be measured unto you.
39 Agĩcooka akĩmahe ngerekano ĩno, akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũtumumu no atongorie mũtumumu ũrĩa ũngĩ? Githĩ eerĩ to magũe irima?
And He spoke a parable unto them, Whether is the blind able to lead the blind? will they not both fall into the ditch?
40 Mũrutwo ti mũnene kũrĩ mũmũruti, no ũrĩa wothe mũrute wega, no atuĩke ta mũmũruti.
The disciple is not above his teacher; but every one having been made perfect shall be as his teacher.
41 “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩgũtũma wone kĩhuti kĩrĩa kĩrĩ riitho rĩa mũrũ wa thoguo, no ũkaaga kũrũmbũiya mũgogo ũrĩa ũrĩ riitho rĩaku we mwene?
But why do you see the mote which is in the eye of your brother, and do not recognize the beam which is in your own eye?
42 Wahota atĩa kwĩra mũrũ wa thoguo atĩrĩ, ‘Mũrũ wa baba, reke ngũrute kĩhuti kĩu kĩrĩ riitho rĩaku,’ o rĩrĩa wee wagĩte kuona mũgogo ũrĩa ũrĩ naguo riitho rĩaku? Wee hinga ĩno, amba ũrute mũgogo ũcio ũrĩ naguo riitho, nĩguo wone wega ũhote kũruta kĩhuti kĩrĩa kĩrĩ riitho rĩa mũrũ wa thoguo.
Or how are you able to say to your brother; Brother, permit me, I will cast out the mote which is in thine eye, yourself not seeing the beam which is in your own eye? O hypocrite, first cast out the beam from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to cast out the mote which is in the eye of your brother.
43 “Gũtirĩ mũtĩ mwega ũciaraga maciaro mooru, kana mũtĩ mũũru ũgaciara maciaro mega.
For there is no beautiful tree producing corrupt fruit, nor corrupt tree producing beautiful fruit.
44 O mũtĩ ũmenyekaga na maciaro maguo mwene. Andũ matituaga ngũyũ kuuma mĩtĩ-inĩ ya mĩigua, o na kana magatua thabibũ kuuma congʼe-inĩ.
For every tree is known by its own fruit: for they do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather the grape-bunch from the bramble.
45 Mũndũ ũrĩa mwega aragia maũndũ mega kuuma mũthiithũ-inĩ wa ngoro yake, nake mũndũ ũrĩa mũũru aragia maũndũ mooru kuuma mũthiithũ-inĩ wa ngoro yake. Nĩgũkorwo kanua gake kaaragia o maũndũ marĩa maiyũrĩte ngoro yake.
The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth the good; and the wicked man out of the wicked treasure of his heart brings forth that which is wicked: for out of the abundance of his heart his mouth speaks.
46 “Atĩrĩrĩ, mũnjĩtaga ‘Mwathani, Mwathani,’ nĩkĩ, na mũtiĩkaga ũrĩa ndĩmwĩraga?
But why do you call me Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
47 Nĩngũmuonia ũrĩa mũndũ ũrĩa ũũkaga kũrĩ niĩ, na akaigua ciugo ciakwa, na ageeka ũrĩa ciugĩte ahaana.
Every one coming to me, and hearing my words, and doing the same, I will show you to whom he is like.
48 Ahaana ta mũndũ waakaga nyũmba, ũrĩa wenjire mũthingi, akĩũrikia na akĩwamba igũrũ rĩa ihiga. Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa kwagĩire mũiyũro wa maaĩ, kĩguũ gĩkĩgũtha nyũmba ĩyo na nditi, no gĩtiamĩenyenyirie, tondũ nĩyaakĩtwo wega.
He is like unto a man building a house, who dug and went down deep, and laid the foundation upon the rock: and there being a flood, the river broke against that house, and it was not able to shake it; for it was founded on the rock.
49 No mũndũ ũrĩa ũiguaga ciugo ciakwa, na ndekaga ũrĩa ciugĩte, ahaana ta mũndũ ũrĩa waakire nyũmba ĩtarĩ na mũthingi. Na rĩrĩa kĩguũ kĩagũthire nyũmba ĩyo, ĩkĩmomoka, naguo mwanangĩko wayo warĩ mũnene.”
But the one hearing and not doing, is like unto a man building his house upon the ground without a foundation; against which the river broke, and it fell immediately, and great was the fall of that house.
