Lukha 11
1 Gwahunule usikhiU Yisu upu eusayaga mwene, ukhongiyumo ambulile, “Itwa, utumanyisye ufwe ukhwisaya ndu Yohani umuavaama nyisye avakhongi vamwene.'
And as He was praying in a certain retired place, as soon as He had done, one of his disciples said to Him, Lord, teach us to pray as John also taught his disciples.
2 U Yisu akhavavula, vumukhisaya, 'Munjovage, 'Dada, ilitawa lyako limikhiwe. uvutwa wakho winchage.
And He said unto them, when ye pray, say, "Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done as in heaven so also upon earth;
3 Utupinchage ikhisyesye kyitu ikya sikhu nchoni.
give us day by day our daily bread; and forgive us our sins,
4 Utusyiekhilage inogwa nchitu, ndavutukhuvasyikhila avange voni avatunangile. Utatuvikhaga indugelo.”
for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one."
5 U Yisu akhavavula, “Veni khulyumwe iva nu gane va mwene, uvikhunelutila pakhilo nu khubula ugane ukhuta unyanchime ifisyesye fidatu.
And He said unto them, Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go to him at midnight, and say to him, Friend, lend me three loaves; for a friend of mine on his journey is come to me,
6 Ukhuva umanyani vango anyinchile lino ukhuhuma khusafari, une nilinchila khinu ikya khupa.'
and I have nothing to set before him:
7 Nulu ungale igati akhanda, ulangata nchaga, undyango gufungiwe na vavana vango, tumalile ukhuluta gwigona saniwesye ukhusisinuka ne khupe uve ikhi syesye.
and he from within shall answer and say, Do not be troublesome; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed, I cannot rise to give thee.
8 Nikhuvavula, ndave sisimkha nu khukhupa ikhisyesye ingave umanyani vakho ikwendelela ukhugonga khisita isoni, isisimukha nu khukhupa ifivungutikhilo inya khisyesye ukhuhwanana nu muvunogelwa uve.
I tell you, tho' he will not rise and give him, because he is his friend: yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him as many as he wants.
9 Navyune nikhuvavula nita, wiwisayage, ayumwikwidikhiwa lomelaga yumwipata, hodenchaga ikhikhuvadintulila.
And so I tell you, Ask and it shall be given you, seek and ye shall find, knock and it shall be opened unto you.
10 Ulwakhuva umunu uviavenchaga angadovage vikhupa uviilonda ikhupilila, nu vikhohona vikhudindulila.
For every one that asketh receiveth, and he that seeketh findeth, and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
11 Veni udada mugati indyufwe umwana, angadove isomba ikhupa injokha?
If a son ask bread of any father among you, will he give him a stone? and if he ask for a fish, will he instead of a fish give him a serpent? or if he ask for an egg,
12 Angadove ilikhala ikhupa inge?
will he give him a scorpion?
13 Lino, ulwakhuva umwe mlinuwwivu, mlumanyile ukhuvapa avana vinyu uluhovokhilo ulunonu, lino udada uvakhu kyanya syio fincho? Ukhuta ikhuvapa umepo umbalanche khu vala avikhudova?”
If ye then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your heavenly Father give the holy Spirit to them that ask Him?
14 Pu ugunge usikhi, u Yisu alikhu vinga khuminguluve, nu munu unyaminguluve nu nyamisetano akhava khitanchova. Ilisetano lyavile lihegile khumunu uyo, umunu uyo awesinche ukhunchova avanu vadegile fincho.
And He was casting out a demon, and it was dumb: and when the demon was gone out, the dumb man spake; and the people wondered.
15 Avange vagelile wakhata uyu ihencha amanguluve aga Beelzebul, umbaha va mnguluve
But some of them said, He casteth out demons by Beelzebub the prince of demons:
16 Avange vagelile nukhulondo avavonesyie ulugelo ukhuhuma khukyanya.
and others, to try Him, desired of Him a sign from heaven.
17 Pu u Yisu agamanyile amasago gaaaavene nukhuvavu, “Uvutwa uvuyakhiva vugava yumwa wene, ne khya yiyo yigavile yuyigwa.
But He who well knew their thoughts, said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself becomes desolate, and a house against a house falleth: if Satan also be divided against himself,
18 Ingave undugu usetano iva agevile, uvutwa wamwene ayuvukwima ndakhikhi? Ulwakhuva mwinchova, mwita ncheucha amanguluve aga Belzebuli
how shall his kingdom stand? because ye say, that I cast out demons by Beelzebub.
19 Ingave une nihencha amanguluve ga Beelzebuli, lino avanyinyo vihencha amanguluve khu nchila yilikhu? ulwakhuva iyi, avene yuvikhu vahiga umwe
And if I by Beelzebub cast out demons, by whom do your own people cast them out? wherefore they shall be your judges.
20 Lino, umwe ingave muhencha amanguluve khu khivokho kya Nguluve, pu uvutwa wa Nguluve vuvinchile.
But if I cast out demons by the power of God, you may be sure the kingdom of God is come unto you:
21 Umunu uvyalinamakha alinifilwilo ifyakhulolela uvunjenge wa mwene, ikyuma ni finu fitaneavunonu.
for when a strong man well-armed defends his palace, his substance is secure:
22 Lino vangavamile umunu unyamakha ukhulutilila, nu munu uvya linamakha angapokhe ifilwilo vyamwene, nu khutola ikyuma kyamwene kyoni.
but when a stronger than he cometh upon him and conquers him, he taketh away his armour, wherein he trusted, and divideth his spoils.
23 Umwene uvialikhutali nune hange, khusana khulyune nu khusitaukhulundanya paniye une niyevaniya.
He, that is not with me, is against me; and he, that gathereth not with me, scattereth.
24 Amanguluve amavivi agagihuma khumunu, gagiluta nu khulonda baho amagasi pungale nu khukhekha. Upuyakhiva awene alemilwe, pu inchova, ninogwa ukhukhilivusukho ukhunahumile.
When an impure spirit is gone out of a man, he wanders through dry desert places, seeking rest: and finding none he saith, I will return into my house, that I came out of;
25 Angavuye nu khuvona uvunjenge wa mwene, vukhuniwe nu khutama vunonu.
and when he cometh he findeth it swept and set in order.
26 Lino puiluta khulonda amanguluve 7 avavivi ukhulutilila umwene nu khuvagega vatame upualipo. Nu munu numunu uyo iviva nu vupala fincho, ukhulutilila.”
Then he goeth and taketh with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and so the last state of that man is worse than the first.
27 Wahumile ukhunchova amamenyu ago udala yumo ahuminche ilimenyu khuvukhali, ukhulutilila khuvoni khululundamano ulwa vanu nu khunchova,
As He was speaking these things, a certain woman lifted up her voice from amidst the croud, and said, Happy is the womb that bare thee, and the breasts which thou didst suck!
28 “Ligatalufu ilitumbu ililyakhu holilene livele iliwaohile” Umwene akhanchova akhata vasayiwe avavipulikha ilimenyu lwa Nguluve nu khulivika vunonu.
but He replied, Yea rather happy are they, that hear the word of God and keep it.
29 Pu usikhi ugwa vanuvuvikhindamaniya nu kwongesekha, u Yisu akhatengula ukhunchova “Ikhivumbukho ikhi ikhivumbukho vuvivi, khilonda khuvonesya nu khuta khisikhuli ikya khuvonesya ikhivapatile ukhulutilila nu Yona
And when the multitudes were gathering thick together He began to say, This is a wicked generation: they demand a sign, but no sign shall be given them, except that of the prophet Jonah:
30 Uvunonu nu Yona upuale nu khuvanesya khu vanu ava khu Ninawi, vuyayiva nu mwana va Adamu uvuyakhivaiva ukhuvonesya khu khisasi ikhi
for as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so shall also the Son of man be to this generation.
31 U Malkia vakhu kusini ayikwima ikhigano ikya vuhigi na vanu ava khisasi ikhi nu khuvahiga avene ilwakhuva avene vahumile khu vumalilo wa khilunga ukhuta inche apulihinche uvuelwada uva Solomoni, na apo pwale uviale imbaha ukhulutilila.
The queen of the south shall rise up in the day of judgement against the men of this generation and condemn them: for she came from the remote parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold a greater than Solomon is here.
32 Avanu va khu Ninawi ayuvikwima khu vuhigi, ulwakhuva va khuti uvusiyiekhilo uva limenyu ilya Yona nu khulola, apa khwale umbaha, ukhulutilila u Yona.
And the men of Nineveh shall rise up in the judgement against this generation, and condemn it; for they repented upon the preaching of Jonas, and behold a greater than Jonas is here.
33 Asikhuli umunu avavenchaga uvikhunga ikhoroboi nu khuvikha pasi pa hisi yilekhe ukhuvone kha pasi pa khitunda, umwene ikhunga nu khuvikha pa kyanya pa khunu ukhuta umunu nu munu uvikwingila aluvonage ulumuli.
But yet no one having lighted a candle putteth it into a secret place, nor under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they who come in may see the light.
34 Iliho lyakho lumuli lwa mbili gwakho iliho ligave linonu nu mbili gwiva inonu gwiva ndumuli.
The eye is the candle of the body: therefore when thine eye is clear, thy whole body also is light; but when it is bad, thy body also is dark.
35 Lino iliho lyakho lingawe liva liviviv numbili gwiva imbivi gwoni gwiva muhisi. Lino mwilolelaga, ukhuta ulumuli lulwa lulimugati indyumwe lulekhe ukhuvikhiwa ihisi.
Take heed therefore least the light which is in thee be darkness.
36 Lino valume ingave, umbili gwakho gwoni guli mundumuli pu khusikhuli ukhuva muhisi, pu khukhuta umbili gwakho gu hwanana ne khorobui iyikhwakha nu khuhumya ulumuli khulyumwe.”
For if thy whole body be light, having no part dark, it will be (when all enlightened) as when a candle giveth thee light by its brightness.
37 Avile amalile ukhunejova, Farisayo adovile akhale ikyakhulya khukya ya mwene. Nu U Yisu akhungila mgati nu khuva pa nuye numwene.
And as He spake, a certain pharisee asked Him to dine with him: and He went in and sat down at table.
38 Na Vafarisayo vakhaswiga ukhuva sakhalave amavokho vusategwile ukhulya ikyakhulya ikhya khukhimihe.
And when the pharisee saw it he wondered that He did not wash first, before dinner.
39 Pu khuludeva akhavavula, “Umwemwi Vafarisayo mwisukha ifikhombe khunchi ne bakhuli, humbe mugati indyumwe mudigile unogwe uvuvi.
But the Lord said unto him, ye pharisees clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but your inward part is full of rapine and wickedness.
40 Umwe mwi vanu yumwe munchila khulumanya, ingave uviapelile khunchi lino sa pele na gati?
Senseless creatures! Did not He who made the outside, make also that which is within? give alms rather according to your ability:
41 Vapinchage avaganju agagati ni mbombo nchoni nchiva nonu khulyamwe.
and behold all things are clean to you.
42 Lino mwilolilage Vafarisayo, ukhuta muhumya isadaka iya mnanaa nu chicha ni kyavenchago ukhuhuma khukyalo. Pu umwe mugalekhile agavuyilweli nu khubela agaNguluve. Lunonu fincho ukhuvomba agavuyelweli nu khugana u Nguluve, khista khuvomba ago.
But wo unto you pharisees, who tithe even your mint, and rue, and all your herbs, and pass by judgement and the love of God: these ought ye to practise and not to omit the others.
43 Mwikyole mwiVafarisayo ukhuva mwinogwa ukhutama mufigoda ifya khuvulongolo khu masinagogi nu khukhuponya ukhufugamo.
Wo unto you pharisees; for ye love the chief seat in synagogues, and salutations in public places.
44 Mwilolelage mukwanana na mapuvuba aganchila khimanyilo kya munu pe avanu vigenda pa kyanya khista khulunya.”
Wo unto you scribes and pharisees, hypocrites; for ye are like graves that do not appear, and those that walk over them are not aware of them.
45 Umanyisi yamo uva ndagilo incha vayahudi akhanda nu khuvavula, “Imanyisi, ikhiwinchova khikhutukhalanja nayufwe.”
And one of the doctors of the law answered and said unto Him, Master, in saying these things thou reproachest us also.
46 U Yisu akhanchova, “Mwilolelage, indagilo ulwakhuva mukhuvapa avanu iminchigo imivaha igisaviwesye ukhwitwikha, lino umwe samu palamasya iminchigo igyo vulevule ukhutwanana mekhi melelenchi ikya mavokho gito.
And He said, Wo unto you also, ye interpreters of the law, for ye load men with insupportable burthens, and ye yourselves touch not the burthens with one of your fingers.
47 Mwilolelage ulwakhuva mujenga nukhuvikha ikhi khumbuhincha khu khumapumba agavanyamalago avuvabudiwe na vakhukhu vito.
Wo unto you; who build the sepulchres of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
48 Lino numwe mukhwidikiwa nu khwidikha khumbombo inchivavobile avakhukhu vito ulwakhuva vavabudile avanyamalago kya mapumba gavene.
Thus ye testify that ye approve of the deeds of your fathers; for they put them to death, and ye build their sepulchres.
49 Ulwakhuva khuvunonu uwa Nguluve inchova ita, “Nikhuvasuhila avanyamalago na valumbeleli avene vikhuvatesya nnu khuvabuda avange.
And therefore the wisdom of God hath said, I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they will kill and persecute:
50 Ikhivumbukhu ikhi yukhivomba khukhisa ugwa vanyamalago avuvabudiwe ukhuhuma pavutengulilo wa khilunga,
that the blood of all the prophets which has been shed from the foundation of the world may be required of this generation, from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah,
51 Ukhuhuma ukhisa gwa Abeli nukhisa ugwa Zakaria, uviabudiwe pagati pa khitekhela pa vuvalanche. Lweli, ni khuvavula umwe, mwe vakhivumbukho ikhi ayukhivomba.
who perished between the altar and the temple. Verily I tell you, it shall be required of this generation.
52 Mwilolelage mwi vamanyisi va ndagilo incha khiyahudi, ulwakhuva mtolile indindulilo incha vutwa, nu mwe samukhwingila, na vavinogwa ukhwingela, mukhuvakhilwala.”
Wo unto you interpreters of the law; for ye have taken away the key of knowledge, ye entered not in yourselves, and those that were entering in, ye hindered.
53 Usikhi u Yisu ugwa khuhega pala, avavigi na Mafarisayo vabelile nu khugatanchiwa nu khuhigiwa, khu mbombo inyingi.
As He was saying these things unto them the scribes and pharisees began vehemently to attack Him, and urge Him to speak of many things,
54 Vagelile ukhumwibeta khumamenyu ga mwene.
laying snares for Him, and endeavouring to catch something out of his mouth, that they might accuse Him.
