Luka 24
1 Haba fuma ku makalo e nviki, ci baya kwi bita ku leta mafuta a nunka a baba lukisi.
And on the first [day] of the weeks, at early dawn, they came to the tomb, carrying the spices they made ready, and certain [others] with them,
2 Baba wani ivwe ci lya pindumunwa kwi bita.
and they found the stone having been rolled away from the tomb,
3 Cibe njila mukati, mi kana baba wani citunta ca Jesu.
and having gone in, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.
4 Ci kwa tendahala bulyo, haba ba kusi lyangene nezo, kapilipili bakwame bobele ciba zimana ha mbali nebo muzizabalo zi benya.
And it came to pass, while they are perplexed about this, that behold, two men stood by them in clothing—flashing [with light];
5 Banakazi babe zwile ku tiya ciba kubama hansi cha zi fateho zabo, ci ba wamba ku Banakazi “chinzi hamu saka bahala ku ba fwile?
and on their having become afraid, and having inclined the face to the earth, they said to them, “Why do you seek the living with the dead?
6 Ka kwina munu, Mi ca buswa, muhupule mwa ba wambili na sina mwa Galilea,
He is not here, but was raised; remember how He spoke to you, being yet in Galilee,
7 Chati mwana we Ireeza ka hewe mu mayanza aba tenda zibi ni ku mu kokotela, Imi ke zuba lya butatu ka buke.”
saying, It is necessary for the Son of Man to be delivered up into the hands of sinful men, and to be crucified, and to rise again [on] the third day.”
8 Banakazi ciba hupula manzwi akwe,
And they remembered His sayings,
9 ciba zwa kwi bita ni kuka wamba zintu zonse ku balutwana ni bantu bonse.
and having turned back from the tomb, told all these things to the Eleven, and to all the rest.
10 Linu, Maria Madgalena, Joana, ni Mary nyina wa James ni bamwi Banakazi ciba biha zintu zonse ku ba Apositola.
And it was Mary the Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary of James, and the other women with them, who told these things to the apostles,
11 Imi i impiho ciya bonala kusa zuweka hande kuba Apositola, imi kana bab zumini zi baba wambi Banakazi.
and their sayings appeared before them as idle talk, and they were not believing them.
12 Pitrosi cha zima niku tilila kwi bita, cha zima niku lola mukati, aba boni fela majila fela. Pitrosi aba boli ku Munzi na komoketwe chiba tendahali.
And Peter having risen, ran to the tomb, and having stooped down he sees the linen clothes lying alone, and he went away to his own home, wondering at that having come to pass.
13 Celyo izuba balutwana bobele baba kuya ku munzi uba ku sumpwa Emmaus, ubena makumi ena i yanza ni kumi lyonke lye stadia kwa Jerusalema.
And behold, two of them were going on during that day to a village, being sixty stadia distant from Jerusalem, the name of which [is] Emmaus,
14 ciba ambola ni bamwi cezo zi ba tendahali.
and they were conversing with one another about all these things that have happened.
15 Kuba tendahali kuti haba ba ku wamba ni kuli buza Jesu cha li bonahaza ku bali.
And it came to pass in their conversing and reasoning together, that Jesus Himself, having come near, was going on with them,
16 Imi menso abo aba ku kangwa ku mwi ziba.
and their eyes were restrained so as not to know Him,
17 Jesu aba wambi ku bali, “chinzi inwe mu wamba mu bobele cimu ya buyenda?” Chiba zima ni ku lola ni ba swabite,
and He said to them, “What [are] these words that you exchange with one another, walking, and you are sad?”
18 Zumwi kubali we zina lya Cleopas ca mwi taba, “Kana njewe u muntu wenke mwa Jerusalema ya sezi zintu zi ba tendahali mwa anu mazuba?”
And one, whose name was Cleopas, answering, said to Him, “Are You alone visiting Jerusalem and have not known the things having come to pass in it in these days?”
19 Jesu ca wamba ku bali, “zintu zihi”? Ciba mwi taba, Zintu zi amana ni Jesu wa Nazareta, yabali Mupolofita, we misebezi mu manzwi, habusu bwa mulimu ne chisi.
And He said to them, “What things?” And they said to Him, “The things about Jesus of Nazareth, who became a man—a prophet—powerful in deed and word, before God and all the people,
20 Lyahanu ba Prisita ba kulwana ni Bayendisi, mumu baba mubetekeli ni ku mu nyansa kuti a kokotelwe ni kwi haiwa.
how also the chief priests and our rulers delivered Him up to a judgment of death, and crucified Him;
21 Imi tuba hupwile kuti njete na lukulule Israele. yee, nihakuba bulyo izi celi izuba lyo butatu kuzwa zonse zintu ha zi tendahala.
and we were hoping that it is He who is about to redeem Israel, and also with all these things, this third day is passing today since these things happened.
22 Kono banakazi bamwi be nkopano baba tukomokisi, kaku pakelela kwi bita,
And certain of our women also astonished us, coming early to the tomb,
23 Imi kana baba ka mu wani chitunta, baba boli chi bakati nabo ba ba boni impono ya Mangeloi baba wambi kuti u hala.
and having not found His body, they came, saying to have also seen an apparition of messengers who say He is alive,
24 Bamwi ba Kwame mukati ketu baba yendi kwi bita, ciba kawana muba ba teli Banakazi, kono kana baba ka mu wani.”
and certain of those with us went away to the tomb, and found [it] so, even as the women said, and they did not see Him.”
25 Jesu aba wambi kubali kuti, Mawe inwe bantu musa zuwisisi bene inkulo zi lyeha ku lemuha ziwambo za ba wambi mupolofita.
And He said to them, “O inconsiderate and slow in heart to believe on all that the prophets spoke!
26 Kana kena kubali kwa butokwa kuti Jesu a nyandiswe ni kwi njila mwi kanya,
Was it not necessary [for] the Christ to suffer these things, and to enter into His glory?”
27 Kwi ntazi ku zwa kwa Mushe ku ya ku baprofita bonse, Jesu caba tolokela zintu ku amana naye mu mañolo.
And having begun from Moses, and from all the Prophets, He was expounding to them in all the Writings the things about Himself.
28 Hachi ba ba sutelele ku munzi ku baba kuya, Jesu aba tendi ubu aba kusi zwila habusu,
And they came near to the village to where they were going, and He made an appearance of going on further,
29 kono chiba mu cho kuti, “wi kale neswe, imi celi chitengu ni zuba chiliya kuku mina” linu Jesu cha bola mukati kwi kala nabo.
and they constrained Him, saying, “Remain with us, for it is toward evening,” and the day declined, and He went in to remain with them.
30 Ku ba tendahali kuti haba kala naye ku lya, cha hinda chinkwa ku chi fuyola ni ku chi komauna cha baha,
And it came to pass, in His reclining with them, having taken the bread, He blessed, and having broken, He was giving to them,
31 Linu menso abo aba tondi ni chi ba mwi ziba, Imi cha zwa mu menso abo,
and their eyes were opened, and they recognized Him, and He became unseen by them.
32 Chiba wamba kuzumwi ni zumwi, “kana inkulo kazi bili mukati ketu? Ha wamba kwetu munzila, ha tu wumbwila mañolo.”
And they said to one another, “Was our heart not burning within us as He was speaking to us in the way, and as He was opening the Writings up to us?”
33 Chiba zima che nako iyo ni ku yenda kwa Jerusalema, chi ba wana Balutwana bena ikumi ni yenke ni bamwi ba bena nabo,
And they, having risen up the same hour, turned back to Jerusalem, and found the Eleven gathered together, and those with them,
34 chi bati initi Jesu aba buki ni ku libonekisa kwa Simoni,
saying, “The Lord was indeed raised, and was seen by Simon”;
35 chi ba wamba zintu zonse ziba tendahali mwi nzila, ni Jesu mwa ba tondelezwa ni kamo Jesu haba ku komauna chinkwa.
and they were expounding the things in the way, and how He was made known to them in the breaking of the bread,
36 Haba ba ku wamba bulyo, Jesu cha zima mukati kabo, cha wamba ku bali chati “Ku sanga kube ne nwe”.
and as they are speaking these things, Jesus Himself stood in the midst of them, and says to them, “Peace to you”;
37 Kono baba bi ni sabo niku tiya ahulu, ni ku bonala kuti ba bona luhuho lu jolola.
and being amazed, and becoming frightened, they were thinking themselves to see a spirit.
38 Jesu aba wambi ku bali, “Chinzi hamu bilela, ni kuba ni puzo mwi nkulo zenu?
And He said to them, “Why are you troubled? And why do reasonings come up in your hearts?
39 Mu bone mu mayanza angu ni matende kuti njeme. Muni wonde niku ni lola, sina luhuho lu jolola halu sena inyama ne zi fuha sina muni kalile me”.
See My hands and My feet, that I am He; handle Me and see, because a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see Me having.”
40 Ha wamba bulyo aba ba tondezi mayanza ni matende a kwe.
And having said this, He showed the hands and the feet to them,
41 Haba ba kwina mu ku sa zumina bakeñisa cha ku sanga bulyo niku komokwa Jesu cha wamba ku bali mwina chimwi chete mulye?
and while they are not believing from the joy, and wondering, He said to them, “Do you have anything here to eat?”
42 Chiba muha chiyemba che nswi zi jichitwe,
And they gave to Him part of a broiled fish, and of a honeycomb,
43 Jesu cha hinda ni kulya mubusu bwa bo.
and having taken, He ate before them,
44 Aba wambi ku bali, “kuti hani bena nenwe, ni ba mi wambile kuti zonse ziba ñolwa ka mulawo wa Mushe ni we chiprofita ni manolo a Lisamu e zuzilizwe”.
and He said to them, “These [are] the words that I spoke to you, being yet with you, that it is necessary to be fulfilled all the things that are written in the Law of Moses, and the Prophets, and the Psalms, about Me.”
45 Cwale che yalula ingana zabo, kuti ba zuwisise mañolo.
Then He opened up their understanding to understand the Writings,
46 Aba wambi kubali kuti, “chiba ñoletwe kuti Jesu u swanela ku nyandiswa ni ku buka ku ba fwile che zuba lyo butatu.
and He said to them, “Thus it has been written, and thus it was necessary [for] the Christ to suffer, and to rise out of the dead [on] the third day,
47 Niku bakila zibi zetu kuti tu swalele, zi swanela kukutazwa mwi zina lyakwe ku zisi zonse, ku matango a Jerusalema.
and conversion and forgiveness of sins is to be proclaimed in His Name to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem:
48 Mumpaki wezi zintu.
and you are witnesses of these things.
49 Mubone, nimi tumina zaba sepisi Tayo. Kono mu shale mu Muleneñi konji chi mwa bwikwa ni inguzu zi zwa kwi wulu.”
And behold, I send the promise of My Father on you, but you—abide in the city of Jerusalem until you are clothed with power from on high.”
50 Cwale Jesu cha ba hitila mane kuka sika ha fwihi ni Bethani. Mi cha zimika mayanza no ku ba fuyaula.
And He led them forth outside—to Bethany, and having lifted up His hands He blessed them,
51 Ku ba tendahali kuti haba kuba fuyola aba siyi ni ku hindwa kwi wulu.
and it came to pass, in His blessing them, He was parted from them, and was carried up into Heaven;
52 Linu chiba mu lapelela kaku sanga ni ku bola kwa Jerusalema ke cha ku sanga.
and they, having worshiped Him, turned back to Jerusalem with great joy,
53 Chiba zwila ha busu mwi inkeleke ku temba Ireeza.
and were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.
