< Luka 8 >

1 Sima na yango, Yesu atambolaki na bingumba mpe na bamboka, azalaki koteya mpe kosakola Sango Malamu ya Bokonzi ya Nzambe. Bayekoli nyonso zomi na mibale bazalaki elongo na Ye,
And after these things Jesus travelled about the cities and the villages, and proclaimed and announced the kingdom of God. And with him were his twelve disciples,
2 bakisa ndambo ya basi oyo bakangolamaki na milimo mabe mpe babikisamaki na bokono: Mari, moto ya Magidala, oyo kati na ye, Yesu abenganaki milimo mabe sambo;
and those women who were healed of infirmities and of unclean spirits, Mary called Magdalena, out of whom went seven demons,
3 Jane, mwasi ya Shuza oyo azalaki kobatela biloko ya Erode; Suzana; mpe basi mosusu ebele. Basi yango bazalaki kosalisa mpe kosunga Yesu mpe bayekoli na Ye, na nzela ya biloko na bango moko.
and Joanna the wife of Chusa, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, who ministered to them of their property.
4 Wana ebele ya bato bazalaki kosangana, mpe bato oyo bazalaki kowuta na bingumba bazalaki koya epai ya Ye, alobaki na bango lisese oyo:
And when a great multitude was assembled, and people came to him from all the cities, he said, in similitudes:
5 — Moloni moko akendeki kolona na elanga na ye. Wana azalaki kobwaka nkona na ye, ndambo ekweyaki pembeni ya nzela; baleki nzela banyataki-nyataki yango, mpe bandeke ya likolo eliaki yango.
A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the side of the path, and was trodden upon, and a bird devoured it.
6 Ndambo mosusu ekweyaki na mabele etonda na mabanga; tango kaka ebandaki kobimisa mito, mito ekawukaki, pamba te ezalaki na mayi te.
And other fell upon a rock, and sprung up forthwith; but, as it lacked moisture, it dried up.
7 Ndambo mosusu ekweyaki kati na banzube; banzube ekolaki nzela moko na yango mpe efinaki-finaki mito na yango.
And other fell among thorns, and the thorns sprung up with it, and choked it.
8 Kasi ndambo mosusu ekweyaki na mabele ya malamu, ebimisaki mito oyo ekolaki mpe ekomaki banzete: nkona moko na moko ebotaki bambuma nkama moko. Tango Yesu asilisaki koloba bongo, agangaki: — Tika ete moto nyonso oyo azali na matoyi mpo na koyoka ayoka!
And other fell on good and fair ground, and sprung up, and bore fruits, a hundred for one. Having said these things, he cried: He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
9 Bayekoli ya Yesu batunaki Ye ndimbola ya lisese yango.
And his disciples asked him: what meaneth this similitude?
10 Azongiselaki bango: — Boyebi ya mabombami ya Bokonzi ya Nzambe epesameli nde na bino; kasi epai ya bato mosusu, nazali koloba na masese, mpo ete, atako bakoki kotala, bamona te; mpe atako bakoki koyoka, basosola te.
And he said to them: To you it is given, to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God; but to others, it is spoken in allegories; that, while seeing, they may not see, and while hearing, may not understand.
11 Tala ndimbola ya lisese yango: Nkona ezali Liloba na Nzambe.
But this is the similitude: The seed is the word of God.
12 Nkona oyo ekweyaki pembeni ya nzela ezali bato oyo bayokaka Liloba na Nzambe, kasi Satana ayaka kolongola yango kati na mitema na bango mpo ete bandima te mpe babikisama te.
And those by the side of the path, are they that hear the word, and the enemy cometh and taketh the word out of their heart, that they may not believe and live.
13 Nkona oyo ekweyaki na mabele etonda na mabanga ezali bato oyo bayokaka Liloba mpe bayambaka yango na esengo, kasi batikaka yango te kozwa misisa: bandimaka kaka mpo na mwa tango moke; soki komekama eyei, basundolaka mbala moko kondima.
And those upon the rock, are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy: but they have no root in them, and their faith is temporary, and in time of temptation they are stumbled.
14 Nkona oyo ekweyaki kati na banzube ezali bato oyo, sima na koyoka Liloba, bamitikaka ete, na etamboli na bango, mitungisi ya bomoi ya mokolo na mokolo, bomengo mpe bisengo ya mokili efinafina bango, mpe ete babota te bambuma.
And that which fell among thorns, are those who hear the word, but are choked by cares, and by riches, and by worldly desires, and bear no fruits.
15 Nkona oyo ekweyaki na mabele ya malamu ezali bato oyo, na mitema ya sembo mpe ya malamu, bayokaka Liloba, babatelaka yango, bayikaka mpiko mpe babotaka bambuma.
And that on good ground, are those who, with a humble and good heart, hear the word, and retain it, and with patience bring forth fruits.
16 Moto moko te apelisaka mwinda mpo na kotia yango na se ya katini to na se ya mbeto; atiaka yango nde na likolo ya etelemiselo ya minda mpo ete bato oyo bazali kokota na ndako bamona pole na yango.
No one lighteth a lamp, and covereth it with a vessel, or placeth it under a bed, but setteth it upon a light-stand, that all who come in, may see the light of it.
17 Pamba te eloko moko te ebombama ekozanga kobima na pole, mpe eloko moko te ya sekele ekozanga koyebana to kobima na pole.
For there is nothing covered, that shall not be uncovered; nor concealed, that shall not be known and become manifest.
18 Boye, bosala keba na lolenge na bino ya koyoka! Pamba te, na moto oyo azali na eloko, bakopesa ye lisusu; kasi na ye oyo azangi, bakobotola ata oyo azali kokanisa ete azali na yango.
Take heed how ye hear: for to him that hath, shall be given; and from him that hath not, shall be taken even what he thinketh he hath.
19 Mama mpe bandeko mibali ya Yesu bayaki kotala Yesu, kasi bakokaki te kokoma pene na Ye mpo na ebele ya ebele.
And his mother and his brothers came to him, and they could not speak with him, because of the multitude.
20 Moto moko ayebisaki Ye: — Mama na yo mpe bandeko na yo ya mibali batelemi libanda, bazali na posa ya komona yo.
And they say to him: Thy mother and thy brothers stand without, and wish to see thee.
21 Kasi Yesu azongisaki: — Mama na Ngai mpe bandeko na Ngai, ezali bato oyo bayokaka Liloba na Nzambe mpe batiaka yango na misala.
And he answered and said: My mother and my brothers, are they who hear the word of God, and do it.
22 Mokolo moko, Yesu alobaki na bayekoli na Ye: — Tokatisa na ngambo mosusu ya ebale. Bongo bamataki na bwato mpe bakendeki.
And on a certain day Jesus embarked and sat in a ship, he and his disciples. And he said to them; Let us pass over to the other side of the sea.
23 Wana bayekoli bazalaki koluka nkayi, Yesu alalaki pongi. Mopepe moko ya makasi epepaki kati na ebale; bwato ekomaki kotonda na mayi, mpe bakomaki na likama monene.
And while they were rowing, Jesus fell asleep. And there was a tempest of wind on the sea; and the ship was near to sinking.
24 Bayekoli bapusanaki mpe balamusaki Ye na koganga: — Moteyi, Moteyi, tozali kokufa! Yesu alamukaki mpe apesaki mitindo na mopepe mpe mbonge; bongo ekitaki, mpe kimia ezongaki.
And they came and awaked him, and said to him: Our Rabbi, our Rabbi, we are perishing! And he arose, and rebuked the winds and the agitations of the water; and they ceased, and there was a calm.
25 Yesu atunaki bayekoli na Ye: — Wapi kondima na bino? Kasi bango, batondaki na somo mpe bakamwaki, bakomaki kolobana bango na bango: « Moto oyo azali penza nani? Azali kopesa mitindo ata na mipepe mpe na mayi, mpe yango ezali kotosa ye! »
And he said to them: Where is your faith? And they being in awe, wondered, and said one to another: Who is this, that commandeth even the winds, and the waves, and the sea; and they obey him?
26 Bakomaki na etuka ya Geraza oyo ezali na ngambo mosusu ya ebale, etalana na Galile.
And they rowed on, and came to the country of the Gadarenes, which lieth over against Galilee.
27 Tango Yesu anyataki mabele, mobali moko abimaki na engumba mpe ayaki kokutana na Ye; azalaki na se ya bokonzi ya milimo mabe. Wuta kala, azalaki lisusu te kolata bilamba mpe kovanda na ndako, kasi akomaki kovanda kati na bakunda.
And when he went out upon the land, there, met him a man of the city, in whom had been a demon for a long time; and he wore no clothing, and did not reside in a house, but among the tombs.
28 Tango amonaki Yesu, agangaki mpe amibwakaki na makolo na Ye, na koganga na mongongo makasi koleka: — Yesu, Mwana na Nzambe-Oyo-Aleki-Likolo, olingi nini epai na ngai? Nabondeli Yo, kotungisa ngai te!
And when he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and said, with a loud voice: What have we to do with thee? Jesus, thou Son of the exalted God. I entreat of thee, torment me not.
29 Pamba te Yesu apesaki mitindo na molimo ya mbindo ete ebima kati na mobali oyo ekangaki wuta kala. Mpe atako bakangaki ye minyololo na maboko mpe makolo mpe bazalaki kokengela ye, kasi abukaki minyololo yango, mpe molimo mabe ekumbaki ye na bisika oyo azalaki kaka ye moko.
For Jesus had commanded the unclean spirit, to come out of the man: for, of a long time he had been held captive by him; and he had been bound with chains, and held in fetters; but he had burst the bonds, and had been driven by the demon into the desert.
30 Yesu atunaki ye: — Kombo na yo nani? Azongisaki: — Ngulupa. Pamba te milimo mabe ebele ekotaki kati na ye.
And Jesus demanded of him: What is thy name? And he said to him: Legion: because many demons had entered into him.
31 Bongo milimo mabe yango ezalaki kosenga na Yesu ete atinda yango te kati na libulu ya mozindo. (Abyssos g12)
And they besought him, not to command them to depart into the abyss. (Abyssos g12)
32 Nzokande, etonga moko monene ya bangulu ezalaki kolia kuna na ngomba. Milimo mabe esengaki na Yesu ete atika yango kokota kati na bangulu; mpe Yesu apesaki yango nzela.
And there was a herd of many swine grazing on the mountain. And they besought him, that he would permit them to enter the swine. And he permitted them.
33 Milimo mabe ebimaki kati na mobali yango, mpe ekotaki kati na bangulu. Mbala moko, etonga ya bangulu ekitaki mbangu longwa na ngomba kino kati na ebale mpe ezindaki.
And the demons went out of the man, and entered the swine; and the whole herd ran to a precipice, and plunged into the sea, and were strangled.
34 Tango bakengeli ya bangulu bamonaki likambo oyo ewuti kosalema, bakimaki mpe bakendeki kopesa sango kati na engumba mpe na bilanga.
And when the herdmen saw what had occurred, they fled, and told it in the cities and the villages.
35 Bato babimaki mpo na koya kotala likambo oyo esalemi. Tango bakomaki epai ya Yesu, bamonaki mobali, oyo milimo mabe ebimaki kati na ye, alata bilamba, avandi na makolo ya Yesu na mayele na ye ya kokoka; boye somo ekangaki bango.
And the men went out to see what was done. And they came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the demons had gone, now clothed, and modest, and sitting at the feet of Jesus; and they were awed.
36 Ba-oyo bamonaki likambo oyo ewuti kosalema bayebisaki bato ndenge nini moto oyo azalaki na se ya bokonzi ya milimo mabe akangolamaki.
And they that saw it, related to them in what manner the demoniac was cured.
37 Bongo bato nyonso ya etuka ya bato ya Geraza basengaki na Yesu ete alongwa na etuka na bango, pamba te somo ekangaki bango. Boye Yesu amataki na bwato mpe akendeki.
And the whole throng of the Gadarenes requested him, that he would depart from them: for great fear had seized them. And Jesus embarked in a ship, and retired from among them.
38 Mobali oyo akangolamaki na milimo mabe asengaki kokende elongo na Ye, kasi Yesu azongisaki ye na koloba:
And the man, from whom the demons had gone out, requested that he might remain with him. But Jesus dismissed him, and said to him:
39 — Zonga na libota na yo mpe tatola makambo nyonso oyo Nzambe asali mpo na yo. Boye mobali yango akendeki mpe atatolaki na engumba mobimba, makambo nyonso oyo Yesu asalaki mpo na ye.
Return to thy home, and relate what God hath done for thee. And he went away, and proclaimed through all the city what Jesus had done for him.
40 Tango Yesu azongaki, ebele ya bato bayambaki Ye, pamba te bango nyonso bazalaki kozela Ye.
And when Jesus returned, a great multitude received him; for all were looking for him.
41 Mobali moko oyo kombo na ye ezalaki Jairisi, mokambi ya ndako ya mayangani, ayaki, amibwakaki na makolo ya Yesu mpe abondelaki Ye ete akende na ndako na ye,
And a man, whose name was Jairus, a chief of the synagogue, fell down at the feet of Jesus, and besought him to enter his house;
42 pamba te mwana na ye kaka moko ya mwasi, ya mibu pene zomi na mibale ya mbotama, akomaki pene ya kokufa. Wana Yesu azalaki kokende, ebele ya bato bazalaki kotutana-tutana na Ye na bangambo nyonso.
for he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was near dying. And as Jesus went with him, a great multitude pressed upon him.
43 Nzokande, ezalaki wana na mwasi moko oyo azalaki na bokono ya kotanga makila, mpe bokono yango ewumelaki mibu pene zomi na mibale; mpe asilisaki bozwi na ye nyonso epai ya minganga, kasi moko te alongaki kobikisa ye na bokono yango.
And a certain woman, whose blood had flowed twelve years, and who had expended all her property among physicians, and could not be cured by any one,
44 Adusolaki kino ayaki kotelema na sima ya Yesu mpe asimbaki singa ya songe ya elamba na Ye; mpe mbala moko, makila na ye etikaki kotanga.
came up behind him, and touched the border of his garment; and immediately the flow of her blood stopped.
45 Yesu atunaki: — Nani asimbi Ngai? Lokola moto ata moko te andimaki, Petelo alobaki na Yesu: — Moteyi, ebele ya bato bazali kofinana-finana mpe kotutana-tutana na Yo.
And Jesus said: Who touched me? And when all denied, Simon Cephas and those with him said to him: Our Rabbi, crowds press upon thee and sayest thou, Who touched me?
46 Kasi Yesu alobaki: — Moto moko asimbi Ngai; nayebi ete nguya ebimi kati na Ngai.
And he said: Some one touched me; for I perceive, that energy hath gone out from me.
47 Awa mwasi yango amonaki ete azali ya kobombama te, akendeki na kolenga, amibwakaki na makolo ya Yesu mpe alobaki na miso ya bato nyonso mpo na nini asimbaki Yesu mpe ndenge nini abiki mbala moko na bokono na ye.
And the woman, when she saw that she had not escaped his notice, came trembling, and fell down and worshipped him. And in the presence of all the people, she declared for what cause she had touched him, and that she was instantly healed.
48 Kasi Yesu alobaki na ye: — Mwana na Ngai ya mwasi, kondima na yo ebikisi yo; kende na kimia.
And Jesus said to her: Take courage, my daughter: Thy faith hath given thee life: Go in peace.
49 Wana Yesu azalaki nanu koloba, moto moko ayaki wuta na ndako ya Jairisi, mokambi ya ndako ya mayangani, mpe alobaki: — Mwana na yo ya mwasi akufi. Kotungisa lisusu Moteyi te.
And while he was speaking, one came from the house of the chief of the synagogue, and said to him: Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the teacher.
50 Lokola Yesu ayokaki ye koloba bongo, alobaki na Jairisi: — Kobanga te! Ndima kaka, mpe akobika na bokono na ye.
And Jesus heard it, and said to the father of the maid: Fear not; believe only, and she will live.
51 Tango Yesu akomaki na ndako ya Jairisi, atikaki moto moko te kokota elongo na Ye, longola kaka Petelo, Yoane, Jake, tata mpe mama ya mwana.
And Jesus came to the house; and he suffered none to go in with him, except Simon, and James, and John, and the father and mother of the maid.
52 Bato nyonso bazalaki kolela mpe koyoka mawa mpo na mwana yango. Kasi Yesu alobaki: — Bokata kolela; akufi te, azali nde ya kolala!
And all were weeping and wailing over her. And Jesus said: Weep not; for she is not dead, but sleepeth
53 Bato basekaki Yesu, wana bayebaki ete asilaki kokufa.
And they derided him, knowing that she was dead.
54 Kasi Yesu asimbaki ye na loboko mpe alobaki: — Mwana na Ngai, lamuka!
And he put every one out, and took her by the hand, and called, and said: Maid, arise.
55 Pema ya bomoi ezongaki kati na mwana; mpe mbala moko, atelemaki. Bongo Yesu atindaki bango kopesa ye eloko ya kolia.
And her spirit returned, and she instantly arose. And he directed them to give her food.
56 Baboti na ye bakamwaki, kasi Yesu apekisaki bango koloba na moto ata moko te likambo oyo ewuti kosalema.
And her parents were astonished: and he charged them to tell no one what had occurred.
