Lukka 17
1 Awo Yesu n’agamba abayigirizwa be nti, “Ebikemo ebireetera abantu okwonoona tebiyinza butajja, naye zimusanze omuntu oyo abireeta.
And he said to his disciples, It is impossible but that stumbling-blocks will come; but woe to him through whom they come!
2 Ekyandisinze kwe kusiba olubengo mu bulago bwe n’asuulibwa mu nnyanja okusinga okwesittaza omu ku baana bano abato.
It were better for him to have a millstone hung round his neck, and be cast into the sea, than to cause one of these little ones to fall away.
3 Mwekuume. “Muganda wo bw’ayonoonanga, omunenyanga; era singa yeenenya omusonyiwanga.
Take heed to yourselves. If thy brother sin, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him.
4 Ne bw’akusobyanga emirundi omusanvu mu lunaku olumu, naye buli mulundi n’ajja gy’oli n’akwenenyeza, musonyiwenga.”
And if he sin against thee seven times in a day, and seven times turn to thee, saying, I repent, thou shalt forgive him.
5 Awo abatume ne bagamba Mukama waffe nti, “Twongereko okukkiriza.”
And the apostles said to the Lord, Give us more faith.
6 Mukama waffe n’abagamba nti, “Singa okukkiriza kwammwe kuba ng’akaweke ka kaladaali, mwandigambye omukenene guno nti, ‘Siguka ogwe mu nnyanja,’ era ne gubagondera.
But the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard, ye might say to this sycamine-tree, Be plucked up by the roots, and planted in the sea! and it would obey you.
7 “Naye ani ku mmwe, ng’omuddu we yaakakomawo okuva okulima oba okulunda endiga, amugamba nti, ‘Jjangu mangu otuule ku mmere?’
And which of you having a servant plowing, or feeding cattle, will say to him, when he hath come in from the field, Come immediately and place thyself at table?
8 Tamugamba nti, ‘Teekateeka emmere yange, weerongoose olabike bulungi, olyoke ompeereze nga ndya era nga nnywa, bwe nnaamala naawe n’onywa era n’olya emmere yo?’
Will he not rather say to him, Make ready wherewith I may sup, and gird thyself and serve me till I have eaten and drunken, and afterward thou shalt eat and drink?
9 Mulowooza nti Mukama w’omuweereza oyo amwebaza olw’okugondera bye yalagirwa okukola?
Doth he owe any thanks to that servant, because he did what was commanded?
10 Nammwe bwe mutyo bwe mumalanga okutuukiriza ebyo ebyabagambibwa okukola, mugambenga nti, ‘Ffe abaddu bo abatasaanira tukoze omulimu gwaffe ogutugwanidde.’”
So also do ye, when ye have done all that hath been commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants; we have done what we were bound to do.
11 Awo Yesu bwe yali yeeyongerayo mu lugendo lwe ng’agenda e Yerusaalemi, n’akwata ekkubo eriyita wakati wa Ggaliraaya ne Samaliya.
And it came to pass, as he was going to Jerusalem, that he was traveling on the confines of Samaria and Galilee.
12 Awo bwe yayingira mu kabuga akamu, abasajja kkumi nga bonna bagenge ne bajja okumusisinkana. Ne bayimirira walako
And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten lepers, who stood afar off.
13 ne bakoowoola mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka nti, “Yesu, Mukama waffe, tukwatirwe ekisa!”
And they lifted up their voice, saying, Jesus, Master, have pity on us.
14 Yesu bwe yabalaba n’abagamba nti, “Mugende mweyanjule eri bakabona.” Bwe baali nga bagenda ne bawona ne baba balongoofu.
And when he saw them, he said to them, Go, show yourselves to the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they were on their way, they were cleansed.
15 Omu ku bo bwe yalaba ng’awonye n’akomawo eri Yesu nga bw’aleekaanira waggulu ng’atendereza Katonda.
And one of them, perceiving that he was freed from his disease, turned back, giving glory to God with a loud voice;
16 N’agwa wansi ku bigere bya Yesu ng’amwebaza. Omusajja oyo yali Musamaliya.
and he fell down on his face at his feet, giving thanks to him; and he was a Samaritan.
17 Yesu n’agamba nti, “Ekkumi bonna tebaawonyezebbwa? Omwenda bo baluwa?
And Jesus answering said, Were not the ten cleansed? Where are the nine?
18 Tebayinzizza kudda kutendereza Katonda wabula munnaggwanga ono yekka y’akomyewo?”
Were there none found returning to give glory to God but this foreigner?
19 Awo Yesu n’amugamba nti, “Situka weetambulire, okukkiriza kwo kukuwonyezza.”
And he said to him, Rise and go; thy faith hath made thee well.
20 Awo Abafalisaayo ne babuuza Yesu nti, “Obwakabaka bwa Katonda bulijja ddi?” Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Obwakabaka bwa Katonda tebulabika nga bujja,
And being asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God was coming, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not in such a manner as to be watched for;
21 era abantu tebagenda kugamba nti, ‘Laba buubuno wano,’ oba nti, ‘Buubuli wali,’ kubanga obwakabaka bwa Katonda buli mu mmwe.”
nor will they say, Lo here! or there! for behold, the kingdom of God is in the midst of you.
22 Oluvannyuma n’agamba abayigirizwa be nti, “Ekiseera kijja lwe mulyegomba okulaba olumu, ku nnaku z’Omwana w’Omuntu, naye temulirulaba.
And he said to the disciples, The days will come, when ye will desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and will not see it.
23 Balibagamba nti lwe luno era nti lwe luli temugendanga era temubagobereranga.
And they will say to you, Lo there! lo here! Go not away, and follow not.
24 Kubanga ng’eggulu bwe limyansiza ku ludda olumu olw’eggulu ate ne limyansiza ku ludda olulala olw’eggulu, bw’atyo bw’aliba Omwana w’Omuntu ku lunaku lwe,
For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of one part under heaven, shineth to the other part under heaven, so will the Son of man be in his day.
25 Naye okusooka kimugwanira okubonaabona mu bintu bingi, n’okugaanibwa, abantu ab’omulembe guno.
But first he must suffer much, and be rejected by this generation.
26 “Nga bwe kyali mu biseera bya Nuuwa, era bwe kityo bwe kiriba ne mu biseera by’Omwana w’Omuntu.
And as it was in the days of Noah, so will it be also in the days of the Son of man.
27 Abantu baali balya nga banywa nga bawasa era nga bafumbirwa okutuusa ku lunaku Nuuwa lwe yayingira mu lyato. Olwo amataba ne gajja ne gasaanyaawo buli kintu.
They ate, they drank, they married, they were given in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.
28 “Era kiriba nga bwe kyali mu nnaku za Lutti. Abantu baali balya nga banywa, nga bagula era nga batunda, nga balima era nga bazimba amayumba,
In like manner, as it was in the days of Lot; they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;
29 okutuusa ku lunaku Lutti lwe yava mu Sodomu. Olwo omuliro n’olunyata ne biyiika okuva mu ggulu ne bizikiriza buli kimu.
but on the day when Lot went out of Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.
30 “Bwe bityo bwe biriba ku lunaku, Omwana w’Omuntu lw’alirabikirako.
Thus will it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.
31 Ku lunaku olwo omuntu yenna aliba waggulu ku nju, takkanga mu nju munda kuggyamu bintu bye. N’abo abaliba mu nnimiro tebaddangayo eka okubaako ne bye banonayo.
In that day, let not him who is upon the house-top, and whose furniture is in the house, come down to take it away; and he that is in the field, let him likewise not turn back.
32 Mujjukire mukazi wa Lutti!
Remember Lot's wife.
33 Buli anoonya okuwonya obulamu bwe alibufiirwa, naye buli eyeefiiriza obulamu bwe alibuwonya.
Whoever shall seek to save his life will lose it; and whoever shall lose it will preserve it.
34 Mbagamba nti ku lunaku olwo abantu babiri baliba ku kitanda kimu, Omu alitwalibwa naye munne n’alekebwa.
I tell you, In that night there will be two men on one bed; one will be taken, and the other will be left.
35 Abantu babiri baliba basa ku lubengo, omu alitwalibwa naye munne alirekebwa.
Two women will be grinding together; one will be taken, and the other left.
36 Abasajja babiri baliba mu nnimiro, omu alitwalibwa naye munne alirekebwa.”
37 Awo abayigirizwa be ne bamubuuza nti, “Mukama waffe, nga batwalibwa wa?” Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Awaba ekifudde awo ensegawe zirikuŋŋaanira!”
And they answering say to him, Where, Lord? And he said to them, Where the body is, there also will the eagles be gathered together.
