< Κατα Λουκαν 7 >
1 Ἐπειδὴ ἐπλήρωσεν πάντα τὰ ῥήματα αὐτοῦ εἰς τὰς ἀκοὰς τοῦ λαοῦ, εἰσῆλθεν εἰς Καφαρναούμ.
Baada ya Yesu kumaliza kusema haya yote watu wakiwa wanamsikiliza, akaingia Kapernaumu.
2 Ἑκατοντάρχου δέ τινος δοῦλος κακῶς ἔχων, ἤμελλεν τελευτᾶν, ὃς ἦν αὐτῷ ἔντιμος.
Mtumishi wa jemadari mmoja wa Kirumi, ambaye bwana wake alimthamini sana, alikuwa mgonjwa sana karibu kufa.
3 Ἀκούσας δὲ περὶ τοῦ ˚Ἰησοῦ, ἀπέστειλεν πρὸς αὐτὸν πρεσβυτέρους τῶν Ἰουδαίων, ἐρωτῶν αὐτὸν ὅπως ἐλθὼν διασώσῃ τὸν δοῦλον αὐτοῦ.
Jemadari huyo aliposikia habari za Yesu, aliwatuma wazee wa Kiyahudi kwake, wakamwomba aje kumponya mtumishi wa huyo jemadari.
4 Οἱ δὲ παραγενόμενοι πρὸς τὸν ˚Ἰησοῦν, παρεκάλουν αὐτὸν σπουδαίως λέγοντες ὅτι “Ἄξιός ἐστιν ᾧ παρέξῃ τοῦτο,
Wale wazee walipofika kwa Yesu, wakamsihi sana amsaidie yule jemadari wakisema, “Mtu huyu anastahili wewe umfanyie jambo hili,
5 ἀγαπᾷ γὰρ τὸ ἔθνος ἡμῶν, καὶ τὴν συναγωγὴν αὐτὸς ᾠκοδόμησεν ἡμῖν.”
kwa sababu analipenda taifa letu tena ametujengea sinagogi.”
6 Ὁ δὲ ˚Ἰησοῦς ἐπορεύετο σὺν αὐτοῖς. Ἤδη δὲ αὐτοῦ οὐ μακρὰν ἀπέχοντος ἀπὸ τῆς οἰκίας, ἔπεμψεν ὁ ἑκατόνταρχος φίλους λέγων αὐτῷ, “˚Κύριε, μὴ σκύλλου, οὐ γὰρ ἱκανός εἰμι ἵνα ὑπὸ τὴν στέγην μου εἰσέλθῃς·
Hivyo Yesu akaongozana nao, lakini alipokuwa hayuko mbali na nyumbani, yule jemadari akatuma rafiki zake kumwambia Yesu, “Bwana, usijisumbue, kwani mimi sistahili wewe kuingia chini ya dari yangu.
7 διὸ οὐδὲ ἐμαυτὸν ἠξίωσα πρὸς σὲ ἐλθεῖν· ἀλλὰ εἰπὲ λόγῳ, καὶ ἰαθήτω ὁ παῖς μου.
Ndiyo maana sikujiona hata ninastahili kuja kwako wewe. Lakini sema neno tu, naye mtumishi wangu atapona.
8 Καὶ γὰρ ἐγὼ ἄνθρωπός εἰμι ὑπὸ ἐξουσίαν τασσόμενος, ἔχων ὑπʼ ἐμαυτὸν στρατιώτας, καὶ λέγω τούτῳ, ‘Πορεύθητι’, καὶ πορεύεται, καὶ ἄλλῳ, ‘Ἔρχου’, καὶ ἔρχεται, καὶ τῷ δούλῳ μου, ‘Ποίησον τοῦτο’, καὶ ποιεῖ.”
Kwa kuwa mimi mwenyewe ni mtu niliyewekwa chini ya mamlaka, nikiwa na askari chini yangu. Nikimwambia huyu, ‘Nenda,’ yeye huenda; na mwingine nikimwambia, ‘Njoo,’ yeye huja. Nikimwambia mtumishi wangu, ‘Fanya hivi,’ yeye hufanya.”
9 Ἀκούσας δὲ ταῦτα ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς, ἐθαύμασεν αὐτόν, καὶ στραφεὶς τῷ ἀκολουθοῦντι αὐτῷ ὄχλῳ εἶπεν, “Λέγω ὑμῖν, οὐδὲ ἐν τῷ Ἰσραὴλ τοσαύτην πίστιν εὗρον.”
Yesu aliposikia maneno haya, alishangazwa naye sana. Akaugeukia ule umati wa watu uliokuwa unamfuata, akawaambia, “Sijaona imani kubwa namna hii hata katika Israeli.”
10 Καὶ ὑποστρέψαντες εἰς τὸν οἶκον οἱ πεμφθέντες, εὗρον τὸν δοῦλον ὑγιαίνοντα.
Nao wale watu waliokuwa wametumwa kwa Yesu waliporudi nyumbani walimkuta yule mtumishi amepona.
11 Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ἑξῆς, ἐπορεύθη εἰς πόλιν καλουμένην Ναΐν, καὶ συνεπορεύοντο αὐτῷ οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ ὄχλος πολύς.
Baadaye kidogo, Yesu alikwenda katika mji mmoja ulioitwa Naini. Nao wanafunzi wake na umati mkubwa wa watu walikwenda pamoja naye.
12 Ὡς δὲ ἤγγισεν τῇ πύλῃ τῆς πόλεως, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐξεκομίζετο τεθνηκὼς μονογενὴς υἱὸς τῇ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ αὐτὴ ἦν χήρα, καὶ ὄχλος τῆς πόλεως ἱκανὸς ἦν σὺν αὐτῇ.
Alipokaribia lango la mji, alikutana na watu waliokuwa wamebeba maiti wakitoka nje ya mji. Huyu aliyekufa alikuwa mwana pekee wa mwanamke mjane. Umati mkubwa wa watu wa mji ule ulikuwa pamoja na huyo mwanamke.
13 Καὶ ἰδὼν αὐτὴν, ὁ ˚Κύριος ἐσπλαγχνίσθη ἐπʼ αὐτῇ, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ, “Μὴ κλαῖε.”
Bwana Yesu alipomwona yule mjane, moyo wake ulimhurumia, akamwambia, “Usilie.”
14 Καὶ προσελθὼν, ἥψατο τῆς σοροῦ, οἱ δὲ βαστάζοντες ἔστησαν, καὶ εἶπεν, “Νεανίσκε, σοὶ λέγω, ‘Ἐγέρθητι!’”
Kisha akasogea mbele akaligusa lile jeneza na wale waliokuwa wamelibeba wakasimama kimya. Akasema, “Kijana, nakuambia inuka.”
15 Καὶ ἀνεκάθισεν ὁ νεκρὸς καὶ ἤρξατο λαλεῖν, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὸν τῇ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ.
Yule aliyekuwa amekufa akaketi akaanza kuongea, naye Yesu akamkabidhi kwa mama yake.
16 Ἔλαβεν δὲ φόβος πάντας, καὶ ἐδόξαζον τὸν ˚Θεὸν λέγοντες, ὅτι “Προφήτης μέγας ἠγέρθη ἐν ἡμῖν!” Καὶ, ὅτι “Ἐπεσκέψατο ὁ ˚Θεὸς τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ!”
Watu wote wakajawa na hofu ya Mungu, nao wakamtukuza Mungu wakisema, “Nabii mkuu ametokea miongoni mwetu, Mungu amekuja kuwakomboa watu wake.”
17 Καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὁ λόγος οὗτος ἐν ὅλῃ τῇ Ἰουδαίᾳ περὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ πάσῃ τῇ περιχώρῳ.
Habari hizi za mambo aliyoyafanya Yesu zikaenea Uyahudi wote na sehemu zote za jirani.
18 Καὶ ἀπήγγειλαν Ἰωάννῃ οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ περὶ πάντων τούτων. Καὶ προσκαλεσάμενος δύο τινὰς τῶν μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ, ὁ Ἰωάννης
Wanafunzi wa Yohana Mbatizaji wakamweleza Yohana mambo haya yote. Hivyo Yohana akawaita wanafunzi wake wawili
19 ἔπεμψεν πρὸς τὸν ˚Ἰησοῦν λέγων, “Σὺ εἶ ὁ ἐρχόμενος ἢ ἕτερον προσδοκῶμεν;”
na kuwatuma kwa Bwana ili kumuuliza, “Wewe ndiye yule aliyekuwa aje, au tumngojee mwingine?”
20 Παραγενόμενοι δὲ πρὸς αὐτὸν, οἱ ἄνδρες εἶπαν, “Ἰωάννης ὁ Βαπτιστὴς ἀπέστειλεν ἡμᾶς πρὸς σὲ λέγων, ‘Σὺ εἶ ὁ ἐρχόμενος ἢ ἄλλον προσδοκῶμεν;’”
Wale watu walipofika kwa Yesu wakamwambia, “Yohana Mbatizaji ametutuma tukuulize, ‘Wewe ndiye yule aliyekuwa aje, au tumngojee mwingine?’”
21 Ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ὥρᾳ, ἐθεράπευσεν πολλοὺς ἀπὸ νόσων, καὶ μαστίγων, καὶ πνευμάτων πονηρῶν καὶ τυφλοῖς πολλοῖς ἐχαρίσατο βλέπειν.
Wakati huo huo, Yesu aliwaponya wengi waliokuwa na magonjwa, maradhi na pepo wachafu, na pia akawafungua vipofu wengi macho wakapata kuona.
22 Καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, “Πορευθέντες, ἀπαγγείλατε Ἰωάννῃ ἃ εἴδετε καὶ ἠκούσατε: ‘τυφλοὶ ἀναβλέπουσιν’, χωλοὶ περιπατοῦσιν, λεπροὶ καθαρίζονται, καὶ κωφοὶ ἀκούουσιν, νεκροὶ ἐγείρονται, ‘πτωχοὶ εὐαγγελίζονται’.
Hivyo akawajibu wale wajumbe, “Rudini mkamwambie Yohana yote mnayoyaona na kuyasikia: Vipofu wanapata kuona, viwete wanatembea, wenye ukoma wanatakaswa, viziwi wanasikia, wafu wanafufuliwa na maskini wanahubiriwa habari njema.
23 Καὶ μακάριός ἐστιν ὃς ἐὰν μὴ σκανδαλισθῇ ἐν ἐμοί.”
Amebarikiwa mtu yule asiyechukizwa na mimi.”
24 Ἀπελθόντων δὲ τῶν ἀγγέλων Ἰωάννου, ἤρξατο λέγειν πρὸς τοὺς ὄχλους περὶ Ἰωάννου, “Τί ἐξήλθατε εἰς τὴν ἔρημον θεάσασθαι; Κάλαμον ὑπὸ ἀνέμου σαλευόμενον;
Wajumbe wa Yohana walipoondoka, Yesu akaanza kusema na makutano kuhusu Yohana Mbatizaji. Akawauliza, “Mlipokwenda kule nyikani, mlikwenda kuona nini? Je, ni unyasi ukipeperushwa na upepo?
25 Ἀλλὰ τί ἐξήλθατε ἰδεῖν; Ἄνθρωπον ἐν μαλακοῖς ἱματίοις ἠμφιεσμένον; Ἰδοὺ, οἱ ἐν ἱματισμῷ ἐνδόξῳ καὶ τρυφῇ ὑπάρχοντες ἐν τοῖς βασιλείοις εἰσίν.
Kama sivyo, mlikwenda kuona nini basi? Mtu aliyevaa mavazi ya kifahari? La hasha, watu wanaovaa mavazi ya kifahari na kuishi maisha ya anasa wako katika majumba ya kifalme.
26 Ἀλλὰ τί ἐξήλθατε ἰδεῖν; Προφήτην; Ναί, λέγω ὑμῖν, καὶ περισσότερον προφήτου.
Lakini mlikwenda kuona nini? Mlikwenda kumwona nabii? Naam, nawaambia, yeye ni zaidi ya nabii.
27 Οὗτός ἐστιν περὶ οὗ γέγραπται, ‘Ἰδοὺ, ἀποστέλλω τὸν ἄγγελόν μου πρὸ προσώπου σου, ὃς κατασκευάσει τὴν ὁδόν σου ἔμπροσθέν σου.’
Huyu ndiye ambaye habari zake zimeandikwa: “‘Tazama, nitamtuma mjumbe wangu mbele yako, atakayetengeneza njia mbele yako.’
28 Λέγω ὑμῖν, μείζων ἐν γεννητοῖς γυναικῶν Ἰωάννου οὐδείς ἐστιν· ὁ δὲ μικρότερος ἐν τῇ Βασιλείᾳ τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ μείζων αὐτοῦ ἐστιν.”
Nawaambia, miongoni mwa wale waliozaliwa na wanawake, hakuna aliye mkuu kuliko Yohana. Lakini yeye aliye mdogo kabisa katika Ufalme wa Mungu ni mkuu kuliko Yohana.”
29 (Καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ἀκούσας καὶ οἱ τελῶναι, ἐδικαίωσαν τὸν ˚Θεόν, βαπτισθέντες τὸ βάπτισμα Ἰωάννου·
(Watu wote hata watoza ushuru waliposikia maneno ya Yesu, walikubali kwamba mpango wa Mungu ni haki, maana walikuwa wamebatizwa na Yohana.
30 οἱ δὲ Φαρισαῖοι καὶ οἱ νομικοὶ, τὴν βουλὴν τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ ἠθέτησαν εἰς ἑαυτούς, μὴ βαπτισθέντες ὑπʼ αὐτοῦ.)
Lakini Mafarisayo na wataalamu wa sheria walikataa mpango wa Mungu kwao kwa kutokubali kubatizwa na Yohana.)
31 “Τίνι οὖν ὁμοιώσω τοὺς ἀνθρώπους τῆς γενεᾶς ταύτης, καὶ τίνι εἰσὶν ὅμοιοι;
Yesu akawauliza, “Niwafananishe na nini watu wa kizazi hiki? Wanafanana na nini?
32 Ὅμοιοί εἰσιν παιδίοις τοῖς ἐν ἀγορᾷ καθημένοις, καὶ προσφωνοῦσιν ἀλλήλοις, ἃ λέγει, ‘Ηὐλήσαμεν ὑμῖν καὶ οὐκ ὠρχήσασθε· ἐθρηνήσαμεν καὶ οὐκ ἐκλαύσατε.’
Wao ni kama watoto waliokaa sokoni wakiitana wao kwa wao, wakisema: “‘Tuliwapigia filimbi, lakini hamkucheza; tuliwaimbia nyimbo za maombolezo, lakini hamkulia.’
33 Ἐλήλυθεν γὰρ Ἰωάννης ὁ Βαπτιστὴς, μὴ ἐσθίων ἄρτον μήτε πίνων οἶνον, καὶ λέγετε, ‘Δαιμόνιον ἔχει.’
Kwa maana Yohana Mbatizaji alikuja, alikuwa hali mkate wala hanywi divai, nanyi mkasema, ‘Yeye ana pepo mchafu.’
34 Ἐλήλυθεν ὁ Υἱὸς τοῦ Ἀνθρώπου, ἐσθίων καὶ πίνων, καὶ λέγετε, ‘Ἰδοὺ, ἄνθρωπος φάγος καὶ οἰνοπότης, φίλος τελωνῶν καὶ ἁμαρτωλῶν.’
Mwana wa Adamu alikuja akila na kunywa, nanyi mnasema: ‘Tazameni huyu mlafi na mlevi, rafiki wa watoza ushuru na “wenye dhambi.”’
35 Καὶ ἐδικαιώθη ἡ σοφία ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν τέκνων αὐτῆς.”
Nayo hekima huthibitishwa kuwa kweli na watoto wake wote.”
36 Ἠρώτα δέ τις αὐτὸν τῶν Φαρισαίων ἵνα φάγῃ μετʼ αὐτοῦ· καὶ εἰσελθὼν εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Φαρισαίου, κατεκλίθη.
Basi Farisayo mmoja alimwalika Yesu nyumbani kwake kwa chakula. Hivyo Yesu akaenda nyumbani mwa yule Farisayo na kukaa katika nafasi yake mezani.
37 Καὶ ἰδοὺ γυνὴ ἥτις ἦν ἐν τῇ πόλει ἁμαρτωλός, καὶ ἐπιγνοῦσα ὅτι κατάκειται ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ τοῦ Φαρισαίου, κομίσασα ἀλάβαστρον μύρου,
Naye mwanamke mmoja kwenye ule mji, ambaye alikuwa mwenye dhambi, alipojua kwamba Yesu alikuwa akila chakula nyumbani kwa yule Farisayo, akaleta chupa ya marhamu yenye manukato.
38 καὶ στᾶσα ὀπίσω παρὰ τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ κλαίουσα, τοῖς δάκρυσιν ἤρξατο βρέχειν τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ, καὶ ταῖς θριξὶν τῆς κεφαλῆς αὐτῆς ἐξέμασσεν, καὶ κατεφίλει τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἤλειφεν τῷ μύρῳ.
Yule mwanamke akasimama nyuma ya miguu ya Yesu akilia. Akailowanisha miguu yake kwa machozi yake, kisha akaifuta kwa nywele zake, akaibusu na kuimiminia manukato.
39 Ἰδὼν δὲ ὁ Φαρισαῖος, ὁ καλέσας αὐτὸν, εἶπεν ἐν ἑαυτῷ λέγων, “Οὗτος εἰ ἦν προφήτης, ἐγίνωσκεν ἂν τίς καὶ ποταπὴ ἡ γυνὴ, ἥτις ἅπτεται αὐτοῦ, ὅτι ἁμαρτωλός ἐστιν.”
Yule Farisayo aliyemwalika Yesu alipoona yanayotendeka, akawaza moyoni mwake, “Kama huyu mtu angekuwa nabii, angejua kwamba ni nani anayemgusa, na kwamba yeye ni mwanamke wa namna gani, na ya kuwa huyu mwanamke ni mwenye dhambi.”
40 Καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτόν, “Σίμων, ἔχω σοί τι εἰπεῖν.” Ὁ δέ, “Διδάσκαλε, εἰπέ”, φησίν.
Yesu akanena akamwambia, “Simoni, nina jambo la kukuambia.” Simoni akajibu, “Mwalimu, sema.”
41 “Δύο χρεοφειλέται ἦσαν δανιστῇ τινι: ὁ εἷς ὤφειλεν δηνάρια πεντακόσια, ὁ δὲ ἕτερος πεντήκοντα.
“Palikuwa na mtu mmoja aliyewakopesha watu wawili fedha: Mmoja alidaiwa dinari 500na mwingine dinari hamsini.
42 Μὴ ἐχόντων δὲ αὐτῶν ἀποδοῦναι, ἀμφοτέροις ἐχαρίσατο. Τίς οὖν αὐτῶν, πλεῖον ἀγαπήσει αὐτόν;”
Wote wawili walipokuwa hawawezi kulipa, aliyafuta madeni yao wote wawili. Sasa ni yupi kati yao atakayempenda yule aliyewasamehe zaidi?”
43 Ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ Σίμων εἶπεν, “Ὑπολαμβάνω ὅτι ᾧ τὸ πλεῖον ἐχαρίσατο.” Ὁ δὲ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, “Ὀρθῶς ἔκρινας.”
Simoni akajibu, “Nadhani ni yule aliyesamehewa deni kubwa zaidi.” Naye Yesu akamwambia, “Umehukumu kwa usahihi.”
44 Καὶ στραφεὶς πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα, τῷ Σίμωνι ἔφη, “Βλέπεις ταύτην τὴν γυναῖκα; Εἰσῆλθόν σου εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν, ὕδωρ μοι ἐπὶ πόδας οὐκ ἔδωκας· αὕτη δὲ τοῖς δάκρυσιν ἔβρεξέν μου τοὺς πόδας, καὶ ταῖς θριξὶν αὐτῆς ἐξέμαξεν.
Kisha akamgeukia yule mwanamke, akamwambia Simoni, “Je, unamwona mwanamke huyu? Nilipoingia nyumbani mwako, hukunipa maji ya kunawa miguu yangu, lakini huyu ameninawisha miguu kwa machozi yake, na kunifuta kwa nywele zake.
45 Φίλημά μοι οὐκ ἔδωκας· αὕτη δὲ ἀφʼ ἧς εἰσῆλθον, οὐ διέλιπεν καταφιλοῦσά μου τοὺς πόδας.
Hukunisalimu kwa busu, lakini huyu mwanamke hajaacha kuibusu miguu yangu tangu nilipoingia.
46 Ἐλαίῳ τὴν κεφαλήν μου οὐκ ἤλειψας· αὕτη δὲ μύρῳ ἤλειψεν τοὺς πόδας μου.
Hukunipaka mafuta kichwani mwangu, lakini yeye ameipaka miguu yangu manukato.
47 Οὗ χάριν, λέγω σοι, ἀφέωνται αἱ ἁμαρτίαι αὐτῆς αἱ πολλαί, ὅτι ἠγάπησεν πολύ· ᾧ δὲ ὀλίγον ἀφίεται, ὀλίγον ἀγαπᾷ.”
Kwa hiyo, nakuambia, dhambi zake zilizokuwa nyingi zimesamehewa, kwani ameonyesha upendo mwingi. Lakini yule aliyesamehewa kidogo, hupenda kidogo.”
48 Εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῇ, “Ἀφέωνταί σου αἱ ἁμαρτίαι.”
Kisha akamwambia yule mwanamke, “Dhambi zako zimesamehewa.”
49 Καὶ ἤρξαντο οἱ συνανακείμενοι λέγειν ἐν ἑαυτοῖς, “Τίς οὗτός ἐστιν ὃς καὶ ἁμαρτίας ἀφίησιν;”
Lakini wale waliokuwa wameketi pamoja naye chakulani wakaanza kusemezana wao kwa wao, “Huyu ni nani ambaye hata anasamehe dhambi?”
50 Εἶπεν δὲ πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα, “Ἡ πίστις σου σέσωκέν σε· πορεύου εἰς εἰρήνην.”
Yesu akamwambia yule mwanamke, “Imani yako imekuokoa; nenda kwa amani.”
