Luka 13
1 Na tango wana, ndambo ya bato bayaki koyebisa Yesu ndenge nini Pilato abomaki bato ya Galile na ngonga oyo bazalaki kobonzela Nzambe bambeka.
Now there were some present at the same time who told him about the Galilaye, whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.
2 Yesu alobaki na bango: — Bokanisi ete bato wana ya Galile bakufaki kufa ya somo mpo ete bazalaki bato minene ya masumu koleka bato nyonso mosusu ya Galile?
And he answered and said to them, "Do you think that these Galilaye were worse sinners than all the other Galilaye, because they suffered these things?
3 Nazali koloba na bino: Ezali bongo te! Kasi soki bobongoli mitema te, bino mpe bokokufa bino nyonso.
I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way.
4 Bongo bato wana zomi na mwambe oyo bakufaki tango ndako molayi ya Siloe ekweyelaki bango, bokanisi ete bazalaki bato ya masumu koleka bavandi nyonso ya Yelusalemi?
Or those eighteen, on whom the tower in Shilukha fell, and killed them; do you think that they were worse offenders than all the others who dwell in Urishlim?
5 Nazali koloba na bino: Ezali bongo te! Soki bobongoli mitema te, bino mpe bokokufa bino nyonso.
I tell you, no, but, unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way."
6 Bongo alobaki lisese oyo: — Moto moko azalaki na nzete na ye ya figi kati na elanga na ye ya vino; akendeki koluka bambuma na likolo ya nzete yango, kasi akutaki ata mbuma moko te.
He spoke this parable. "A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it, and found none.
7 Boye alobaki na mobateli elanga yango: « Tala, tokomi na mobu ya misato wuta nayaka koluka bambuma na likolo ya nzete oyo ya figi, mpe nazwi ata mbuma moko te. Kata yango! Mpo na nini ekanga mabele pamba? »
He said to the vine dresser, 'Look, these three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree, and found none. Cut it down. Why does it waste the soil?'
8 Mobateli elanga azongiselaki ye: « Nkolo na ngai, tika yango lisusu mobu oyo! Nakotimola mabele pembeni na yango mpe nakotia matiti ya kopola;
He answered, 'Lord, leave it alone this year also, until I dig around it, and fertilize it.
9 tango mosusu ekobota mbuma na mobu oyo ezali koya. Soki eboti te, wana kata na yo yango. »
And if it bears fruit next time, [fine]; but if not, you can cut it down.'"
10 Mokolo moko ya Saba, Yesu azalaki koteya kati na ndako ya mayangani.
He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath day.
11 Nzokande, ezalaki wana na mwasi moko oyo molimo mabe egumba ye mokongo, mpe azalaki kokoka te komisembola wuta mibu zomi na mwambe.
And look, a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and she was bent over, and could in no way straighten herself up.
12 Tango Yesu amonaki ye, abengaki ye wuta na liboso mpe alobaki na ye: — Mwasi, okangolami na pasi na yo!
When Yeshua saw her, he called her, and said to her, "Woman, you are freed from your infirmity."
13 Mpe Yesu atielaki ye maboko. Mbala moko, mwasi yango amisembolaki mpe akomaki kokumisa Nzambe.
He laid his hands on her, and immediately she stood up straight, and glorified God.
14 Kasi mokambi ya ndako ya mayangani asilikaki mpo ete Yesu abikisi moto na mokolo ya Saba, mpe alobaki na ebele ya bato: — Ezali na mikolo motoba mpo na kosala mosala! Ezali na mikolo yango nde bosengeli koya mpo ete babikisa bino, kasi na mokolo ya Saba te!
The ruler of the synagogue, being indignant because Yeshua had healed on the Sabbath, said to the crowd, "There are six days when work should be done Therefore come on those days and be healed, and not on the Sabbath day."
15 Nkolo azongiselaki ye: — Bato ya bilongi mibale! Nani kati na bino, na mokolo ya Saba, afungolaka te mpe amemaka te ngombe na ye to ane na ye, wuta na elielo, mpo ete ekende komela mayi?
Therefore the Lord answered him, "You hypocrites. Does not each one of you free his ox or his donkey from the stall on the Sabbath, and lead him away to water?
16 Mwasi oyo azali mokitani ya Abrayami! Nzokande Satana asila kokanga ye minyololo mibu zomi na mwambe! Boni, esengelaki te kokangola ye, na oyo ekanga ye, kaka mpo ete ezali mokolo ya Saba?
Ought not this woman, being a daughter of Avraham, whom Satana had bound, look, eighteen years, be freed from this bondage on the Sabbath day?"
17 Tango alobaki bongo, bayini na Ye nyonso batondaki na soni; kasi ebele ya bato bazalaki kosepela na bikamwa nyonso oyo azalaki kosala.
As he said these things, all his adversaries were disappointed, and all the crowd rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.
18 Bongo Yesu atunaki: — Bokonzi ya Nzambe ekokani na nini? Nakokanisa yango na nini?
Then he said, "What is the Kingdom of God like? And to what can I compare it?
19 Bokonzi ya Nzambe ekokani na nkona ya mutarde oyo moto moko azwaki mpe alonaki kati na elanga na ye, ebimisaki moto mpe ekomaki nzete monene, bongo bandeke ya likolo eyaki kovanda na bitape na yango.
It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and put in his own garden. It grew, and became a tree, and the birds of the sky lodged in its branches."
20 Yesu atunaki lisusu: — Nakokokanisa Bokonzi ya Nzambe na nini?
And again he said, "To what can I compare the Kingdom of God?
21 Ekokani na levire oyo mwasi azwaki mpe asangisaki kati na bakilo pene tuku mibale na sambo ya farine, kino nyonso evimbaki.
It is like yeast, which a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, until it was all leavened."
22 Yesu azalaki koleka na bingumba mpe na bamboka, azalaki koteya wana azalaki kokende na Yelusalemi.
He went on his way through cities and villages, teaching, and traveling on to Urishlim.
23 Moto moko atunaki Ye: — Nkolo, bato moke kaka nde bakobika? Yesu alobaki na bango:
One said to him, "Lord, are they few who are saved?" He said to them,
24 — Bosala makasi mpo na kokotela na ekuke ya moke; pamba te, nazali koloba na bino, bato mingi bakoluka kokota, kasi bakokoka te.
"Strive to enter in by the narrow door, for many, I tell you, will seek to enter in, and will not be able.
25 Tango Nkolo ndako akotelema mpe akokanga ekuke, bokotikala libanda, bokobanda kobeta ekuke mpe kobondela: « Nkolo, Nkolo, fungolela biso! » Kasi Ye akozongisela bino: « Nayebi bino te, nayebi mpe esika bowuti te! »
When once the master of the house has risen up, and has shut the door, and you begin to stand outside, and to knock at the door, saying, 'Lord, open to us.' then he will answer and tell you, 'I do not know you or where you come from.'
26 Bongo bokoloba: « Toliaki mpe tomelaki mesa moko elongo na Yo, mpe oteyaki na babalabala na biso! »
Then you will begin to say, 'We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.'
27 Kasi akozongisela bino: « Nayebi bino te, nayebi mpe esika bowuti te! Bolongwa liboso na Ngai, bino nyonso, bato mabe! »
But he will reply, 'I do not know where you come from. Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity.'
28 Kolela mpe koswa minu ekozala kuna, tango bokomona Abrayami, Izaki, Jakobi mpe basakoli nyonso kati na Bokonzi ya Nzambe; kasi bino, bokobwakama libanda.
There will be weeping and grinding of teeth, when you see Avraham, Iskhaq, Yaquv, and all the prophets, in the Kingdom of God, and yourselves being thrown outside.
29 Bato bakowuta na Este mpe na Weste, na Nor mpe na Sude, mpe bakovanda na mesa kati na Bokonzi ya Nzambe.
They will come from the east, west, north, and south, and will sit down in the Kingdom of God.
30 Boye, kati na bato oyo bazali sik’oyo bato ya liboso, ebele bakokoma bato ya suka; mpe kati na ba-oyo bazali sik’oyo bato ya suka, ebele bakokoma bato ya liboso.
And look, there are some who are last who will be first, and there are some who are first who will be last."
31 Kaka na tango yango, ndambo ya Bafarizeo bayaki epai ya Yesu mpe balobaki na Ye: — Longwa awa, kende na yo esika mosusu, pamba te Erode akani koboma Yo!
In that same hour some Pharisees came, saying to him, "Get out of here, and go away, for Herod wants to kill you."
32 Yesu alobaki na bango: — Bokende koloba na mbwa wana ya zamba: « Nakokoba kobengana milimo mabe mpe kobikisa babeli, lelo mpe lobi; mpe na mokolo ya misato, nakosilisa mosala na Ngai. »
And he said to them, "Go and tell that fox, 'Look, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I complete my mission.
33 Kasi nasengeli kokoba mobembo na Ngai, lelo, lobi mpe lobi oyo ekolanda; pamba te mosakoli moko te akokufa libanda ya Yelusalemi!
Nevertheless I must go on my way today and tomorrow and the next day, for it cannot be that a prophet perish outside of Urishlim.'
34 Yelusalemi, Yelusalemi, yo oyo obomaka basakoli mpe obambaka bato oyo Nzambe atindelaka yo mabanga, mbala boni nalingaki kosangisa bana na yo, ndenge soso ya mwasi esangisaka bana na yango na se ya mapapu, kasi boboyaki.
"Urishlim, Urishlim, that kills the prophets, and stones those who are sent to her. How often I wanted to gather your children together, like a hen gathers her own brood under her wings, and you refused.
35 Sik’oyo, ndako na bino ezali kosundolama. Solo, nazali koloba na bino: Bokotikala komona Ngai lisusu te kino bokoloba: « Tika ete apambolama, Ye oyo ayei na Kombo ya Nkolo! »
Look, your house is abandoned to you. And I tell you, you will not see me until you say, 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'"
