Lukka 8
1 Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo Yesu n’agenda ng’akyalira ebibuga ebinene n’ebitono ng’abuulira Enjiri y’obwakabaka bwa Katonda, n’abayigirizwa be ekkumi n’ababiri nga bali naye.
And it came to pass afterward, that he journeyed through cities and villages, preaching and publishing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God; and the twelve were with him,
2 Waaliwo n’abakazi Yesu be yali agobyeko emyoyo emibi ne be yali awonyezza endwadde. Mu bo mwe mwali ne Maliyamu eyayitibwanga Magudaleene gwe yagobako baddayimooni omusanvu,
and certain women who had been cured of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom had come seven demons,
3 ne Jowaana muka Kuza eyali omukulu w’olubiri lwa Kerode; ne Susaana, n’abalala bangi, abaatoolanga ku byabwe ne balabirira Yesu n’abayigirizwa be.
and Joanna, the wife of Chuzas, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, who afforded them aid from their substance.
4 Awo ekibiina kinene bwe kyali kikuŋŋaana, nga n’abantu abava mu buli kibuga bajja eri Yesu, Yesu n’abagerera olugero luno nti,
And a great multitude collecting together, and people from the cities going out to him, he spoke by a parable:
5 “Omulimi yagenda mu nnimiro ye okusiga ensigo. Bwe yatandika okusiga ensigo, ezimu ne zigwa ku mabbali g’ekkubo ne bazirinnyirira, n’ebinyonyi eby’omu bbanga ne bizirya.
A sower went forth to sow his seed; and as he sowed, some seeds fell by the way-side; and they were trodden down, and the birds of the air devoured them.
6 Ensigo endala zaagwa ku lwazi, bwe zaamera ne zikala kubanga tezaalina mazzi.
And others fell upon rocky ground; and when they had sprung up they withered away, because they had no moisture.
7 Ensigo endala zaagwa mu maggwa, bwe zaamera n’amaggwa nago ne gakula ne gazizisa.
And others fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up with them, and choked them.
8 Naye ensigo endala n’azisiga mu ttaka eddungi, ne zikula ne zibala ebibala emirundi kikumi.” N’amaliriza ng’agamba nti, “Alina amatu okuwulira awulire.”
And others fell upon good ground, and sprung up, and bore fruit, a hundred-fold. While saying these things, he cried aloud, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
9 Abayigirizwa be ne bamubuuza amakulu g’olugero olwo.
And his disciples asked him what this parable meant.
10 N’abaddamu nti, “Mmwe muweereddwa omukisa okumanya ebyama by’obwakabaka bwa Katonda, naye abalala, njogera gye bali mu ngero, “‘bwe batunula baleme kulaba, bwe bawulira baleme kutegeera.’
And he said, To you it hath been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God; but to others [[these things are spoken]] in parables; that while seeing they may not see, and while hearing they may not understand.
11 “Kale, amakulu g’olugero olwo ge gano: Ensigo ky’ekigambo kya Katonda.
Now the meaning of the parable is this. The seed is the word of God.
12 Ensigo ezaagwa ku mabbali g’ekkubo, be bawulira ekigambo, naye Setaani n’ajja n’akibaggyako mu mutima gwabwe, si kulwa nga bakkiriza ne balokolebwa.
Those by the way-side are they that hear; then cometh the Devil and taketh away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved.
13 Ezaagwa ku lwazi be bawulira ne basanyukira ekigambo, kyokka ne kitaba na mmizi. Be bakkiriza, naye okugezesebwa bwe kujja ne bagwa.
Those on the rocky ground are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root; and for a while they believe, and in time of temptation fall away.
14 Ezaagwa mu maggwa, be bawulira ekigambo, naye okweraliikirira n’obugagga n’amasanyu g’omu bulamu ne bibazisa, ne bataleeta bibala bikuze bulungi.
And those seeds which fell among the thorns, these are they who, when they have heard, go away and are choked with the cares and riches and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to perfection.
15 Naye ezaagwa ku ttaka eddungi be bantu abalungi era abeesigwa, era bakuuma ekigambo ku mitima ne babala ebibala n’obugumiikiriza.
But the seeds on the good ground, these are they who in an honest and good heart, when they have heard the word, hold it fast, and bear fruit with constancy.
16 “Tewali muntu akoleeza ttaala ate nagisaanikirako akalobo oba n’agissa wansi w’ekitanda. Agiwanika waggulu ku kikondo, olwo lw’esobola okumulisiza abantu abayingira.
And no one having lighted a lamp, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a lampstand, that those who come in may see the light.
17 Kubanga tewali kintu na kimu ekyakwekebwa ekitalikwekulwa, era tewali na kimu ekitalimanyibwa mu lwatu.
For nothing is secret, that will not be made manifest; nor hidden, that will not be known, and come to light.
18 Noolwekyo mwegendereze nga muwuliriza, kubanga oyo alina alyongerwako; naye oyo atalina, n’ekyo ky’alowooza nti alina kigenda kumuggyibwako.”
Take heed therefore how ye hear; for whoever hath, to him will be given; and whoever hath not, from him will be taken even what he seemeth to have.
19 Awo nnyina ne baganda ba Yesu ne bajja okumulaba, naye ne batasobola kumutuukako olw’ekibiina ky’abantu ekinene.
And his mother and his brothers came where he was, and could not get to him on account of the crowd.
20 Ne wabaawo amubuulira nti, “Nnyoko ne baganda bo obwedda bayimiridde wabweru, baagala kukulabako.”
And word was brought to him, Thy mother and thy brothers stand without, desiring to see thee.
21 Yesu n’addamu nti, “Mmange ne baganda bange be bano abawulira ekigambo kya Katonda ne bakigondera.”
And he answering said to them, My mother and my brothers are these, who hear the word of God, and do it.
22 Lwali lumu Yesu n’alinnya mu lyato n’abayigirizwa be, n’abagamba nti, “Tuwunguke tulage emitala w’ennyanja.” Ne basimbula okugenda.
Now it came to pass on a certain day, that he went into a boat with his disciples, and said to them, Let us go over to the other side of the lake; and they put off.
23 Bwe baali baseeyeeya Yesu ne yeebaka. Awo omuyaga ogw’amaanyi ne gukunta ku nnyanja, n’eryato ne liyuuga nnyo, ne baba mu kabi kanene.
But as they were sailing, he fell asleep. And there came down a storm of wind on the lake, and they were filling with water, and were in jeopardy.
24 Abayigirizwa ne bamuzuukusa, ne bagamba nti, “Mukama waffe, Mukama waffe, tusaanawo!” N’azuukuka n’aboggolera omuyaga n’amazzi agaali geefuukudde. Ne bikkakkana, ennyanja n’etteeka!
And they came and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we are perishing! And he rose, and rebuked the wind, and the surging of the water; and they ceased, and there was a calm.
25 N’alyoka abagamba nti, “Okukkiriza kwammwe kuluwa?” Ne batya, ne beewuunya nnyo, ne bagambagana nti, “Omuntu ono ye ani? Alagira omuyaga n’amazzi ne bimugondera!”
And he said to them, Where is your faith? And they were afraid, and wondered, saying one to another, Who then is this, that he commandeth even the winds and the water, and they obey him?
26 Awo ne bagoba emitala w’eri mu nsi y’Abageresene eyolekedde Ggaliraaya.
And they sailed to the country of the Gergesenes, which is over against Galilee.
27 Awo Yesu bwe yava mu lyato omusajja eyaliko baddayimooni n’ajja okumusisinkana ng’ava mu kibuga. Omusajja oyo yali amaze ebbanga ddene nga tayambala ngoye, nga tasula na mu nju, wabula ng’asula mu ntaana.
And when he had landed, there met him a certain man out of the city who had demons, and for a long time had worn no clothes, and abode not in a house, but in the tombs.
28 Awo bwe yalaba Yesu n’awowoggana n’agwa wansi mu maaso ga Yesu, n’aleekaana nti, “Onjagaza ki, Yesu, Omwana wa Katonda Ali Waggulu Ennyo? Nkwegayiridde tombonyaabonya!”
And seeing Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and said with a loud voice, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, Son of the most high God? I beseech thee, do not torment me.
29 Kubanga Yesu yali alagidde omwoyo omubi guve ku musajja oyo. Emirundi mingi yalumbibwanga n’amaanyi mangi, ne bwe baamusibanga n’enjegere, n’akuumibwa mu masamba, yabikutulanga, ddayimooni n’amulaza mu ddungu.
For he was about to command the unclean spirit to come out of the man; for it had possessed him for a long time, and he had been kept bound and secured with chains and fetters; and bursting the bands, he had been driven by the demon into the wilderness.
30 Awo Yesu n’abuuza omusajja nti, “Erinnya lyo ggwe ani?” Omusajja n’addamu nti, “Nze Ligyoni,” kubanga omusajja yaliko baddayimooni bangi.
And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion; because many demons had entered into him.
And they besought him not to command them to go away into the abyss. (Abyssos g12)
32 Waaliwo eggana ly’embizzi, awo ku lusozi, nga lirya, baddayimooni ne beegayirira Yesu abasindike mu mbizzi ezo. Yesu n’abakkiriza.
Now there was there a herd of many swine feeding on the mountain; and they besought him to permit them to go into them. And he permitted them.
33 Baddayimooni ne bava ku musajja ne bayingira mu mbizzi, amangwago eggana lyonna ne lifubutuka nga liserengeta olusozi, ne lyewanula ku bbangabanga, ne ligwa mu nnyanja, embizzi zonna ne zisaanawo.
And the demons coming out of the man went into the swine; and the herd rushed down the steep into the lake, and were drowned.
34 Abalunzi b’embizzi ezo bwe baakiraba, ne badduka embiro ne bagenda, ne bategeeza ab’omu malundiro ne mu kibuga, ebintu byonna ebibaddewo.
And the herdsmen, seeing what was done, fled, and told the news in the city and in the country.
35 Ekibiina ky’abantu ne bagenda okulaba ebibaddewo ne bajja eri Yesu, ne balaba omusajja eyagobwako baddayimooni ng’atudde awo awali ebigere bya Yesu ng’ayambadde engoye era nga mulamu ddala! Ne batya nnyo.
And they went out to see what had been done. And they came to Jesus and found the man from whom the demons had gone out sitting, clothed, and in his right mind, at the feet of Jesus; and they were afraid.
36 Abo abaaliwo okusookera ddala ne bategeeza abalala ng’omusajja eyaliko ddayimooni bwe yawonyezebwa.
And they who had seen it told them how he that was possessed by demons was made well.
37 Awo abantu bonna ab’ensi eyo ey’Abagerasene ne basaba Yesu abaviire, kubanga baali batidde nnyo. N’asaabala mu lyato n’avaayo.
And the whole multitude in the surrounding country of the Gergesenes besought him to depart from them; for they were seized with great fear. And he went on board a boat and returned.
38 Omusajja, eyagobwako baddayimooni n’amusaba agende naye, naye Yesu n’agaana.
And the man out of whom the demons had gone besought him that he might be with him. But he sent him away, saying,
39 N’agamba omusajja nti, “Ddayo ewammwe obategeeze Katonda by’akukoledde.” Omusajja n’agenda ng’ategeeza buli gwe yasanganga mu kibuga, Yesu bye yali amukoledde.
Return to thy house, and tell what great things God hath done for thee. And he went and published through the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him.
40 Yesu bwe yakomawo ekibiina ky’abantu ne bamwaniriza n’essanyu kubanga bonna baali bamulindirira.
And it came to pass when Jesus returned, that the multitude welcomed him; for they were all waiting for him.
41 Mu kiseera ekyo ne wajjawo omusajja erinnya lye Yayiro, eyali omukulembeze w’ekkuŋŋaaniro, n’agwa ku bigere bya Yesu n’amwegayirira ajje mu maka ge,
And lo! there came a man, named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue; and falling at the feet of Jesus, he besought him to come into his house;
42 kubanga muwala we omu yekka gwe yalina, eyali aweza emyaka nga kkumi n’ebiri yali afa. Yesu n’agenda naye, naye ng’ekibiina kimunyigiriza.
for he had an only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. And as he went, the multitudes thronged him.
43 Mu kibiina ky’abantu ekyo mwalimu omukazi eyali amaze emyaka kkumi n’ebiri ng’alwadde ekikulukuto ky’omusaayi. Yali atambudde nnyo mu basawo era nga bamumazeeko ebintu bye byonna ng’abasasula, naye ne watabaawo asobola kumuwonya.
And a woman who had had an issue of blood twelve years, and had spent all her living upon physicians, and could not be cured by any one,
44 Omukazi ono n’asemberera Yesu ng’amuvaako emabega, n’akoma ku lukugiro lw’ekyambalo kya Yesu, ekikulukuto ky’omusaayi ne kiwona mu kaseera ako kennyini!
came up behind and touched the fringe of his garment; and immediately her issue of blood ceased.
45 Yesu n’abuuza nti, “Ani ankutteko?” Bonna ne beegaana, naye Peetero n’agamba nti, “Mukama waffe, ekibiina ky’abantu kinene abakwetoolodde era abantu bangi bakunyigiriza.”
And Jesus said, Who touched me? And when all denied it, Peter and those with him said, Master, the multitudes are thronging thee, and pressing against thee.
46 Naye Yesu n’addamu nti, “Waliwo ankutteko kubanga mpulidde ng’amaanyi ganvaamu.”
But Jesus said, Some one touched me; for I perceived that power went out from me.
47 Awo omukazi bwe yategeera ng’avumbuddwa, n’ajja ng’akankana n’agwa awo mu maaso ga Yesu, n’annyonnyola mu maaso g’abantu bonna ensonga kyeyavudde amukwatako, era nti n’obulwadde bwe bwawoneddewo!
And the woman, seeing that she was discovered, came trembling, and falling down before him declared before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was cured immediately.
48 Yesu n’agamba omukazi nti, “Muwala wange, okukkiriza kwo kukuwonyezza. Genda mirembe.”
And he said to her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee well; go in peace.
49 Awo Yesu bwe yali ng’akyayogera omuntu n’atuuka ng’ava mu maka g’omukulu w’ekkuŋŋaaniro, n’agamba Yayiro nti, “Muwala wo afudde! Omuyigiriza toyongera kumuteganya.”
While he was yet speaking, there cometh one from the house of the ruler of the synagogue, saying, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Teacher any further.
50 Naye Yesu bwe yakiwulira n’amugamba nti, “Totya! Kkiriza bukkiriza, ajja kuba mulamu.”
But Jesus hearing this, answered him, Fear not; only believe, and she will be made well.
51 Awo Yesu bwe yatuuka ku nnyumba ya Yayiro, n’atakkiriza bantu balala kuyingira naye mu nju wabula Peetero, ne Yokaana, ne Yakobo, ne kitaawe w’omwana, ne nnyina.
And going into the house, he suffered no one to go in with him but Peter and John and James, and the father of the maiden, and the mother.
52 Mu kiseera ekyo abantu bonna baali bakaaba nga bakungubagira omwana oyo. Yesu n’abagamba nti, “Mulekeraawo okukaaba! Omuwala tafudde wabula yeebase bwebasi!”
And all were weeping, and lamenting for her. But he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleeping.
53 Ne bamusekerera nnyo, kubanga bonna baali bamanyi ng’omuwala afudde.
And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead.
54 Naye Yesu n’akwata omuwala eyali afudde ku mukono, n’akoowoola ng’agamba nti, “Mwana wange, golokoka!”
But he took hold of her hand, and called aloud, saying, Maiden, arise!
55 Amangwago n’aba mulamu, n’asituka n’ayimirira. Yesu n’abalagira bamuwe ekyokulya.
And her spirit returned, and she immediately arose. And he ordered food to be given to her.
56 Bazadde b’omuwala ne beewuunya, naye Yesu n’abakuutira obutabuulirako muntu yenna ebibaddewo.
And her parents were amazed. But he charged them to tell no one what had been done.
