Luka 7
1 Baada ya Yesu yomwa kila kilebe chabile kakibaya kwa bandu babampekaniyage, ajingii Karpenaumu.
When he had finished his discourse in the audience of the people, he entered Capernaum.
2 Mmanda pulani ywa akida, ywabile ywa thamani muno kake, abile ntamwe muno ni abile karibu na waa.
And a centurion's servant, who was dear to his master, was sick, and in danger of dying.
3 Lakini ayowine usu Yesu, yolo akida antumite kiongozi wa kiyahudi, kunnoba aiche kunkombwa mmanda wake linga kanaawe.
And the centurion, having heard concerning Jesus, sent to him Jewish elders, to entreat him to come and save his servant.
4 Pabaikite papipi ni Yesu, batikunnoba kweli ni baya, “andastahili upalikwa panga nya kwaajili yake,
When they came to Jesus, they earnestly besought him, saying, He is worthy of this favor;
5 Kwasababu andakulipenda taifa litu, ni ywanjengite sinagogi kwaajili yitu.”
for he loves our nations; and it was he who built our synagogue.
6 Yesu ayendeli ni safari yake pamope nakwe, lakini kabla anaika kwaa kuutalu ni nnyumba, afisa yumo aatumite mambwiga bake longela nakwe, “Ngwana, kana uuchoshe wa mwene kwasababu ya nenga nistahili kwa wenga jingya mu dari yangu.
Then Jesus went with them; and when he was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, to say, Master, trouble not yourself; for I have not deserved that you should come under my roof;
7 Kwasababu yino nifikilie kwa hata nenga namwene panga nenda pwaika icha kwako, lakini ubaye lineno tu ni mmanda wango apapona.
wherefore neither thought I myself fit to come into your presence; say but the word, and my servant will be healed.
8 Kwani nenga na mundu wanibile pa mamlaka na nibii ni askari pae yango, abaya kwa yuu 'Yenda” ni andayenda, ni kwa ywenge 'Icha” ni andaicha ni mtumishi wango “upange nyaa” ni ywembe andapanga.
For even I, who am under the authority of others, having soldiers under me, say to one, Go, and he goes; to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it.
9 Yesu payowine haga atichangala ni kubagalambukiya makutano bababile kabankengama ni baya, “Nindawabakiya hata mu'Isreali, nabona kwa mundu mwene imani kolo kati yolo.
Jesus hearing these things, admired him, and turning, said to the multitude which followed, I assure you, I have not found so great faith even in Israel.
10 Boka po balo babatumilwe babuyangine kaya ni kunkolya mtumishi abile nkoto.
And they who had been sent, having returned to the house, found the servant well, who had been sick.
11 Pulani baada ya haga, yapitike kuwa Yesu ende safiri yenda kilambo che nge chakemelwa Naini. Benepunzi bake bayeyi pamope nakwe bakengimine na bandu banyansima.
The day following, he went into a city called Nain, accompanied by his disciples, and a great crowd.
12 Paikite papipii ni nnyango wa kilambo linga, mundu ywa wile abile apotwilwe ni nga mwana yumo kwa mao ywake. ywabile mnomelanga, ni umati wa akilishi buka pa kilambo bai pamope ni ywembe.
As he approached the gate of the city, the people were carrying out a dead man, the only son of his mother, who was a widow; and many of the citizens were with her.
13 Pamweni Ngwana atikumwegeleya kwa rwangu muno husu ywembe ni kummakia “kana ulile”
When the Lord saw her, he had pity upon her, and said to her, Weep not.
14 Nga egelya nnonge ni kukungwa lijeneza bababutulile maiti ni balo babaputwike batiyimaaa ngaabaya “wenga wa kijana uyumuke.”
Then he advanced and touched the bier, (the bearers stopping, ) and said, Young man, arise, I command you.
15 Ywa awile ngakakatuka ni tama kitako ni tumbwa longela. Boka po Yesu kampea ywa mwana kwa mao bake.
Then he who had been dead, sat up, and began to speak, and he delivered him to his mother.
16 Boka po hofu ibajingile boti, bayendeli kumtukuza Nnongo bende baya “Nabii nkolo alikakatulwa nkati yitu” ni “Nnongo alingite bandu bake.”
And all present were struck with awe, and glorified God, saying, A great prophet has arisen among us; and God has visited his people.
17 Hayii habari inanoga ya Yesu yatienea Yudea yoti ni kwa mikoa yoti ya jirani.
And this report, concerning him, spread throughout Judea, and all the neighboring country.
18 Benepunzi ba Yohana bammakiye mambo goti haga.
Now John's disciples had informed him of all these things,
19 Ndipo Yohana ngaa ankema abeli nkati ya Benepunzi bake ni kubatuma kwa Ngwana baya “wenga yulo ywa icha, au kuna mundu ywenge tumnende?
and he called two of them, whom he sent to Jesus, to ask him, Are you He who comes, or must we expect another?
20 Bapaikite karibu ni Yesu aba payite Yohana mbatizaji atitumite kwako baya, “wenga nga yolo au kui na mundu ywenge tumnende?
Being come to him, they said, John the Immerser has sent us to ask you, Are you He who comes, or must we expect another?
21 Kwa wakati woo aaponyike bandu banyansima buka nkati ya matamwe ni mateso, buka kwa nchela, ni kwa bandu ipofu apeile bona.
At that very time Jesus was delivering man from diseases and maladies, and evil spirits, and giving sight to many, who were blind.
22 Yesu ayangwine baya kwabe, “Baada ya n'yei kwa mwokite mkammakiye Yohana chamkibweni ni kukiyoa. Babile ipofu bapokya bona ni iwete banda tyanga, bene ukoma banda pona, iziwi banda yoa, babawile banda yuka ni panga akolo kai, bangali ni kilebe aabakiya habari inanoga.
And he returned this answer, Go, and report to John what you have seen and heard: the blind are made to see, the lame to walk, the deaf to hear; the leprous are cleansed, the dead are raised, glad tidings are brought to the poor.
23 Ni mundu ywaleka kwaa kuniamini nenga kwa sababu ya matendo gango abalikilwe.”
And happy is he to whom I shall not prove a stumbling block.
24 Baada ya balo babatumilwe ni Yohana buyangana kwaba bukite Yesu nga tumbwe longela na bandu husu Yohana, “Mwayei panja bona namani, nnai wautikatika ni mchunga?
When John's messengers were departed, Jesus said to the multitude, concerning John, What did you go out into the wilderness to behold? A reed shaken by the wind?
25 Lakini mwayei panja bona namani, mundu ywa weti vizuri? linga bandu balo babawala ngubo ya kifalme ni ishi maisha ga staree babile bene nafasi ya kifalme.
But what did you go out to see? A man effeminately dressed? It is in royal palaces that they who wear splendid apparel, and live in luxury, are found.
26 Lakini nn'yenda panja bona namani, Nabii? Elo, nenda baya kwinu na muno kuliko nabii.
What then did you go to see? a prophet? Yes, I tell you, and something superior to a prophet.
27 Uyu ngaba ywaandikilwe, linga nenda kutuma mjumbe wango nnongi ya minyo yinu, ywapala andaa ndila kwaajili yango,
For this is he, concerning whom it is written, "Behold, I send my messenger before you, who shall prepare your way."
28 Mbayaa kwinu, kati ya balo bababelekwile ni nnwawa, ntopo nkolo kati Yohana, lakini mundu ywangali muhimu muno nga ywaa lama ni Nnongo mahali pabile ywembe, apanga nkolo kuliko Yohana.”
For I declare to you, among those who are born of women, there is not a greater prophet than John the Immerser; yet, the least in the Reign of God is greater than he.
29 Ni bandu boti pabayowine haga pamope ni babatosage ushuru, batitangaza Nnongo nga mwene haki. Babile kati yabe babatizilwe kwa ubatizo wa Yohana.
All the people, even the publicans, who heard John, have, by receiving immersion from him, honored God;
30 Lakini mafarisayo ni bataalamu ba saliya ya kiyahudi amabbo babatizilwe ni ywembe batikana hekima ya Nnongo kwaajili yabe bene.
whereas, the Pharisees and the lawyers, in not being immersed by him, have rejected the counsel of God with regard to themselves.
31 Kai mbaweza linganisha mwenga ni namani bandu ba kizazi cheno? Bai kitiwi?
To what shall I compare the men of this generation? Whom are they like?
32 Balingana ni bana babang'anda pasoko, babatama ni kemana yumo baada ya ywenge kababaya,'tuliyula filimbi kwaajili yinu, ni mng'andike kwaa, twatilombola mlelite kwaa.”
They are like children in the market place, of whom their companions complain, and say, We have played to you upon the pipe, but you have not danced; we have sung mournful songs to you, but you have not wept.
33 Yohana mbatizaji aichile alile kwaa nkate wala anywile kwa lilogwa, ni mmayite, “Aina mashetani.
For John the Immerser is come, abstaining from bread and wine, an associate of publicans and sinners; and you say, He has a demon.
34 Mwana wa mundu aichile alile ni ywa ni mmayite linga aina choyo ni nnevi, limbwiga ni babatosa ushuru ni bene sambi.
The Son of Man is come, using both; and you say, He is a lover of banquets, and wine, an associate of publicans and sinners.
35 Lakini hekima bakwipwile kuwa ibile ni haki kwa bana bake boti.”
But wisdom is justified by all her children.
36 Yumo ywa balo, afarisayo anobite ayende akalye nakwe. Baada ya Yesu jingya munyumba ya mafarisayo, alindikii meza linga alye.
Now one of the Pharisees asked Jesus to eat with him: and he went into the Pharisee's house, and placed himself at table.
37 Linga abi na nnwawa katika kilambo chilo abi ni sambi. Akwipwile kuwa atamii kwa farisayo, alelike chupa ya mauta gananungya.
And behold, a woman of the city who was a sinner, knowing that he eat at the house of the Pharisee, brought an alabaster box of balsam,
38 Ayemi nchungu yake karibu ni maghulu gake kuno kalela. Kae atumbwi tepengaya maghulu kwa nywili ya mutwe wakeni kuipakalaya mauta gananungya.
and standing behind at his feet weeping, bathed them with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the balsam.
39 Ni yulo farisayo ywa nkokiti Yesu pamweni nyoo, awechike mwene abayite, mana mundu yuu apanga nabii, apendaga hayu nyai ni nnwawa wa namna gani ywa mkunywa, ya panga mwene sambi.
The Pharisee, who had invited him, observing this, said within himself, If this man were a prophet, he would have known who this woman is that touches him, and of what character, for she is a sinner.
40 Yesu atin'yangwa ni kum'makiya, “Simoni nibiina kikowe cha kukubakiya.” Abayite, “kibaye bai mwalimu”
Then Jesus said to him, Simon, I have something to say to you. He answered, Say it, Rabbi.
41 Yesu abayite, “pabii ni alongelwa abile ba kopite kwa mundu yumo. Yumo abi kadaiwa dinari mia tano ni wene ibele adaiwa dinari hamsini.
A certain creditor had two debtors; one owed five hundred denarii, the other fifty.
42 Ni pabile ntopo ela ya kunnepa atikuwasameya boti. Tubwe ywakuywa mpenda muno?
But not having the means to pay, he freely forgave them both. Say, then, which of them will love him most?
43 Simoni ati kunn'yangwa “mbona ywa nyansima. Yesu amakiya uukumu sawasawa.”
Simon answered, I suppose he whom he forgave most? Jesus replied, You have judged right.
44 Yesu nga ngalabukya mnwawa ni baya kwa Simoni, “Wandamwona uyu nnwawa. Nijingii munyumba yako. Umbei kwaa machi kwa ajili ya magulu gangu, lakini huyu, kwa morii gake ateoengiye magulu gangu ni kugafula kwa nywili yake.
Then turning to the woman, he said, Simon, Do you see this woman? When I came to your house, you gave me no water for my feet; but she has washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with her hair.
45 Huninonii kwaa, lakini ywembe, tangu panjiyite muno alekite kwaa kuninoniya magulu gangu.
You gave me no kiss; but she, since she entered, has not ceased kissing my feet.
46 Huipakiye kwaa magulu gangu mauta, lakini aipakiye magulu gangu mauta gananungya.
You did not anoint my head with oil; but she has anointed my feet with balsam.
47 Kwa jambo lee, nenda kubakia kwamba abe ni sambi zanyansima ni ninsamilie muno, ni kai atipenda muno, lakini ywasamehelwa pachini apendike pachini tu.”
Wherefore, I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven; therefore, her love is great. But he to whom little is forgiven, has little love.
48 Baadaye aamakiye nnwawa, “sambi yako ichamiilwe.”
Then he said to her, Your sins are forgiven.
49 Balo babatami pameza pamope nakwe ngabatumbwa longela bene kwa bene, “Aywa nyai mpaka ansamii sambi?”
Those, who were at table with him, said within themselves, Who is this, that even forgives sins?
50 Ni Yesu amakiye nnwawa imani yako ikukombwile, Uyende kwa amani.”
But he said to the woman, Your faith has saved you, go in peace.
