Luka 12
1 Kwa wakati obhu, maelfu mingi gha bhanu bhakusanyiki pamonga kiasi kya kujhanda kukanyana, akajhanda kujobha ni bhanafunzi bha muene hoti, “Mukihadhariajhi ni chachu jha Mafarisayo ambajho ndo unafiki”
In the mean time, when there was gathered an innumerable multitude of people, so that they trod one upon another, he began to say to his disciples first of all, Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.
2 Na pibelepi kujha ni siri gha jhifigheme ambajho jhibeta lepi kufunulibhwa, wala lijambo lya lifighibhu ambalyo libelepi kumanyikana.
For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known.
3 Na lyolyoha lyamwibeta kujobha mu ngisi libetapelekibhwa mu mwanga. Na ghoghoha gha mghajobhili mu mbolokhoto mu fichumba fyenu fya futendibhu ghibeta kutangasibhwa panani pa nyumba.
Therefore, whatever ye have spoken in darkness, shall be heard in the light; and that which ye have spoken in the ear in closets, shall be proclaimed upon the house-tops.
4 Nikabhajobhela marafiki zangu, musibhatili bhala bhabhikoma mb'ele na kisha bhajhelepi ni khenu khenge kya kukheta,
And I say to you, my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.
5 Lakini nikabhaonya jhamwibeta kuntila. Muntilayi jhola ambajhe baada jha kuhoma, ajheni mamlaka gha kutagha jehanamu. Ena, nikabhajobhela muenga muntilayi ojho. (Geenna g1067)
But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, who after he hath killed, hath power to cast into hell; yes, I say to you, Fear him. (Geenna g1067)
6 Je shomoro bhahanu bhigolesibhwa lepi kwa sarafu sibhele? hata hivyo ajhelepi hata mmonga bhabhi jhaibeta kujhebhelelibhwa palongolo pa K'yara.
Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God?
7 Lakini mumanyayi kujha, njwili sya mitu ghinu ghibhalangibhu. Msitili muenga mwebha thamani mbaha kuliko shomoro bhingi.
But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.
8 Nikabhajobhela, jhejhioha jha akanikiri nene mbele sya bhanu, Mwana ghwa Adamu ibeta kun'kiri mbele sya malaika bha K'yara.
Also I say to you, Whoever shall confess me before men, him will the Son of man also confess before the angels of God.
9 Lakini jhejhioha jhaibeta kunibela mbele sya bhanu, ni muene ibetakubelibhwa mbele jha malaika bha K'yara.
But he that denieth me before men, shall be denied before the angels of God.
10 Jhejhioha jhaibeta kujobha lilobhi linofu lepi kwa mwana ghwa Adamu, ibetakusamehebhwa, lakini jhejhioha jhaibekun'kufuru Roho mtakatifu, ibetalepi kusamehebhwa.
And whoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but to him that blasphemeth against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven.
11 Pabhibeta kubhapeleka mbele sya bhabhaha bha masinagogi, bhatawala ni bhenye mamlaka, Musitili juu ni namna jha kulongela katika kwitetela au kiki kyamwibeta kujobha,
And when they bring you to the synagogues, and [before] magistrates, and powers, be not solicitous how or what thing ye shall answer, or what ye shall say:
12 Kwa kujha Roho mtakatifu ibetakubhafundisya kya mwibeta kujobha kwa wakati obhu.”
For the Holy Spirit will teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say.
13 Munu mmonga pa kusanyiku akan'jobhela, “Mwalimu, n'jobhelayi ndongo bhangu anigabhilayi sehemu jha urithi bhwangu.”
And one of the company said to him, Master, speak to my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me.
14 Yesu akan'jibu, niani anibhekili kujha mwamuzi ni mpatanishi kati jha muenga?
And he said to him, Man, who made me a judge, or a divider over you?
15 Ndipo akabhajobhela, mkihadhariajhi ni khila namna jha tamaa, kwandabha uzima bhwa munu ujhelepi kwa fenu fya ajhe nafu.”
And he said to them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.
16 Yes akabhajobhela mfano, akajobha, N'gonda ghwa munu mmonga tajiri ghwahoguili nesu,
And he spoke a parable to them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:
17 na akakikota mugati mwa muene, akajobha nibetaketabhuli kwani nijhelepi ni sehemu jha kubheka mazao ghangu?
And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to deposit my fruits?
18 Akajobha, nibetakheta naha. Nibetakubomola ghala sya jhoni sidebe ni kujhenga jhibhaha nikuhifadhi mazao gha nene ghoha ni fenu fenge.
And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I deposit all my fruits and my goods.
19 Nibetakujobhela nafsi jha nene, “Nafsi, ukibhakili akiba jha fenu fingi kwa miaka ghimehele. P'omosekayi, uliayi, unyuajhi ni kustarehe.”
And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast abundance of goods laid up for many years; take thy ease, eat, drink, [and] be merry.
20 Lakini K'yara akabhajobhela, ebhe munu mpumbafu, kiru kya lelu wilonda Roho kuhoma kwa bhebhe ni fenu fyoha fye ufiandele fibetakujha fya kiki?
But God said to him, [Thou] fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be which thou hast provided?
21 Ndivyo kyajhibekujha kwa khila munu jhaikibhekela mali na sio kwitayarisya kwandabha jha Bwana.
So [is] he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich towards God.
22 Yesu akabhajobhela bhanafunzi bha muene, kwa hiyo nikabhajobhela musihofu juu jha maisha gha jhomu jha kujha mwibeta kulya kiki au juu jha mibhele ghya jhomu jha kujha mwibeta kufuala kiki
And he said to his disciples, Therefore I say to you, Be not anxious for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on.
23 Kwa kuwa maisha ndo zaidi jha kyakulya, ni mb'ele ndo zaidi jha mavazi.
The life is more than food, and the body [is more] than raiment.
24 Mulangayi fidege fya anga, bhilema lepi bhwala kuvuna. Bhajhelepi ni kichumba bhwala ghala lya kubhekela, lakini Dadi jhinu akabhalasya. Muenga bora lepi kuliko fidege!
Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap: which neither have store-house, nor barn; and God feedeth them: How much more are ye better than the fowls?
25 Jholekhu kati jha muenga akakisumbulayi ibhwesya kujhongesya dhiraa jhimonga katika maisha gha muene?
And which of you by solicitude can add to his stature one cubit?
26 Ikajhiajhi mwibhwesya lepi kuketa naha ekhu khenu kidusu kyepesi kwandajha kiki kusumbukila aghu ghangi?
If ye then are not able to do that thing which is least, why are ye anxious for the rest?
27 Mulangayi maua -kyaghimele. Ghibhomba lepi mbombo wala kusokota. Lakini nikabhajobhela, hata Sulemani mu utukufu bhwa muene bhoha afwekibhu lepi kama mmonga ghwa agha,
Consider the lilies how they grow: They toil not, they spin not; and yet I say to you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
28 Kama K'yara akaghafueka kinofu mat'ondo ghakondeni, ambagho lelu ghajhele, ni kilabhu ghitaghibhwa mu muoto. Je si nesu akabhafueka muenga? mwebha imani haba!
If then God so clothe the grass, which is to-day in the field, and to-morrow is cast into the oven; how much more [will he clothe] you, O ye of little faith?
29 Msisumbukili juu jha kujha mwibeta kulya kiki au mwibeta kunywa kiki, bhwala musijhi ni hofu.
And seek ye not what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind.
30 Kwakujha Mataifa ghoha gha dunia ghisumbukila mambo agha. Ni Dadi jhinu amanyili kujha mwilonda aghu.
For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things.
31 Lakini mulondayi ufalme bhwa muene hoti, ni aghu ghangi mwibeta kuzidishibhwa,
But rather seek ye the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added to you.
32 Musitili muenga likundi lidebe, kwandabha Dadi jhinu ohobhwiki kubhap'ela muenga ufalme obhu.
Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
33 Muhemelesiajhi mali sya muenga ni mali mubhapelayi maskini, mukifanyilayi mifuko ghyaghushibhwa lepi hazina jha kumbinguni jhajhimalika lepi, sehemu ambajho bhaheji bhibeta lepi kukaribila wala nondo jhibeta lepi kuharibu.
Sell what ye have, and give alms: provide yourselves bags which become not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth.
34 Kwakujha pajhe ni hazina jha jhobhi, ndipo ni roho jha jhobhi pajhibekujha.
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
35 Nghobho sya jhomu sitali sijhelayi sikongibhu kwa n'kanda, ni taa sya jhomu sihakikisibhwayi kujha sijhendelela kujhaka,
Let your loins be girt, and [your] lights burning;
36 na mujhelayi kama bhanu bhabhakandendela Bwana ghwa bhene kuhomela mu sherehe jha harusi, ili kwamba ahidayi ni kupiga hodi, bhibeta kubhwesya kun'dendulila ndiangu kwa haraka.
And ye yourselves like men that wait for their lord, when he shall return from the wedding; that, when he cometh and knocketh, they may open to him immediately.
37 Bhabarikibhu bhala bhatumishi, ambabho Bwana ibeta kubhekolela mihu. Hakika ibeta kukonga nghobhu jha muene jhitali kwa n'kanda, kisha ibeta kubhatamika pasi kwa kyakulya, Kisha kubhahudumila.
Blessed [are] those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say to you, that he will gird himself, and make them to sit down to eat, and will come forth and serve them.
38 Kama Bwana ibeta kuhida kwa zamu jha pili jha ulinzi jha pakiru, au zamu jha tatu jha ulinzi, nu kubhakolela bhajhe tayari, ibeta kujha heri kwa abhu bhatumishi.
And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find [them] so, blessed are those servants.
39 Zaidi jha aghu, mmanyayi ele, kama Bwana n'kolo nyumba ngaajhimanyi saa ambajho mmeji ihida, ngaanihusuililepi nyumba jha muene jhibomolibhwayi.
And this know, that if the master of the house knew at what hour the thief would come, he would watch, and not suffer his house to be broken through.
40 Mujhiajhi tayari kwani mumanyilepi ndo wakati gani Mwana ghwa Adamu ibeta kerebhuka.
Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.
41 Petro akajobha, “Bwana, ukatujobhela tete twebhene mifano ejhe, au ukan'jobhela khila munu?
Then Peter said to him, Lord, speakest thou this parable to us, or even to all?
42 Bwana akabhajobhela, “Niani mtumwa mwaminifu au mwenye hekima ambaye Bwana ghwa muene ibeta kumbeka panani pa bhatumishi bhangi, ili abhag'abhilayi kyakulya kwa wakati muafaka?
And the Lord said, Who then is that faithful and wise steward, whom [his] lord shall make ruler over his household, to give [them their] portion of provisions in due season?
43 Abarikibhu mtumishi jhola, ambajhe Bwana ghwake akahidajhi ibeta kun'kolela ibhomba ghala gha alaghisibhu.
Blessed [is] that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
44 Hakika nikabhajobhela muenga jha kujha ibeta kumbeka panani pa mali jha muene jhioha.
In truth I say to you, that he will make him ruler over all that he hath.
45 Lakini mtumishi jhola akajobha mu muoyo ghwa muene, “bwana ikabhela kukerebhuka; hivyo akajhanda kubhatobha bhala bhatumishi bha kigosi ni kidala, kisha akajhanda kulya, kunywa ni kugala,
But if that servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; and shall begin to beat the men-servants, and maidens, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken?
46 bwana ghwa muene mtumwa jhola ibeta kuhida ligono lya ategemeleghe lepi ni saa jhaajhimanyilepi, ni muene ibeta kun'dumula fipandi ni kumbeka sehemu jhimonga ni bhabhabelikujha bhaaminifu'
The lord of that servant will come in a day when he looketh not for [him], and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him asunder, and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers.
47 Mtumishi, jhaamanyili mapenzi gha Bwana ghwa muene, ni muene akakiandele lepi wala aketili lepi kinofu ni mapenzi gha muene ibetakutobhibhwa fiboko fimehele.
And that servant who knew his lord's will, and prepared not [himself], neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many [stripes].
48 Lakini mtumishi jhaamanyilepi mapenzi gha bwana ghwa muene, na adhabu, ibeta kutobhibhwa fiboko fidebe. Kwa kujha muene jha apelibhu fimehele, idaibhwa kuhoma kwa muene, ni muene jhaaminibhu kwa fimehele, kwa muene fibetakudaibhwa fimehele zaidi.
But he that knew not, and committed things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few [stripes]. For to whomsoever much is given, of him shall much be required: and to whom men have committed much, from him they will ask the more.
49 Nihidili kubhwasya muoto duniani, na ninoghele ujhelayi umalikujhaka,
I am come to send fire on the earth, and what will I, if it is already kindled?
50 Lakini nijheni ubatizo ambabho nibetakubatisibhwa na nijhe ni huzuni mpaka pa wibeta kukamilika!
But I have a baptism to be baptized with; and how am I straitened till it shall be accomplished!
51 Je mwifikiri nihidili kuleta amani duniani? Lepi, nikabhajobhela, badala jhiake niletili mgawanyiku.
Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, No; but rather division:
52 kuh'omela henu ni kujhendelela kubetakujha ni bhanu bhahanu mu nyumba jhimonga bhagawanyiki, na bhadatu bhibetakujha kinyume ni bhabhele bhibetakujha kinyume ni bhadatu.
For from henceforth there will be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three.
53 Bhibeta kugabhwanyika, Dadi ibetakujha kinyume ni mwanabhe ni ibetakujha kinyume ni Dadijhe, mabhu ibetakujha kinyume ni mwali munu ni mwali munu ibetakujha kinyume ni nyinamunu, Mama mkwe ibetakujha kinyume ni n'kwibhi ni nkwibhi ibeta kujha kinyume ni Mama mkwe ghu muene.
The father will be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
54 Yesu akajhe akabhajobhela makutano kabhele, “Mara pa mwibhona mabhengu ghihomela magharibi, mwijobha nyakati sya fula sifikili; na ndo kya jhijha,
And he said also to the people, When ye see a cloud rising in the west, immediately ye say, There cometh a shower; and so it is.
55 Ni mpongo ghwa kusini ukabhumayi, mwijobha, pibeta kujha ni joto kali, na ndo kya jhijha.
And when [ye perceive] the south wind blowing, ye say, There will be heat; and it cometh to pass.
56 Enyi bhanafiki, mwibhwesya kutafsiri mwonekano bhwa nchi ni anga, lakini jhijha bhuli mwisindwa kutafsiri wakati bhwa ujhele?
[Ye] hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky, and of the earth; but how is it, that ye do not discern this time?
57 Kwandajha kiki khila mmonga bhinu. asipambanuli lyalijhele sahihi kwa muene wakati ambapo angali ajhe ni nafasi jha kubhomba aghu?
And why even of yourselves judge ye not what is right?
58 Ndabha mkalotayi ni mshitaki ghwa jhobhi pa hakimu, kitahidiajhi kupatana ni mshitaki ghwa jhobhi mugati mwako na munjela asije akakupeleka kwa hakimu, ni hakimu kulongosya kwa ofisa, ni ofisa kusopa mu ligereza.
When thou goest with thy adversary to the magistrate, [as thou art] in the way, give diligence that thou mayest be delivered from him; lest he draw thee before the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and the officer cast thee into prison.
59 Nikujobhela, wibetalepi kupita okhu hadi ulepayi mpaka senti jha mwishu.
I tell thee, thou shalt not depart thence, till thou hast paid the very last mite.
