Luka 9
1 Yesu akavakemela vawuliwa vaki kumi na vavili pamonga akavapela makakala na uhotola panani ya mizuka yoha na kulamisa matamu.
And having called together the twelve, he gave them power and authority over all demons, and to heal diseases,
2 Kangi akavatuma vahamba vakakokosa Unkosi wa Chapanga na kulamisa vatamu.
and sent them to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal the sick.
3 Akavajovela, “Mkotoka kutola chindu chochoha chila mulugendu lwinu ngati ndonga amala lihaku amala chakulya amala mashonga amala kuvya na magwanda gavili pagati yinu.
And he said to them, Take nothing for the way, neither staff, nor scrip, nor bread, nor money; nor to have two body-coats apiece.
4 Nyumba yeyoha yemwiyingila na vavapokili mutama penapo mbaka pemwiwuka pamuji wenuwo,
And into whatsoever house ye enter, there abide and thence go forth.
5 Na vandu ngati vabelili kuvapokela, muwukayi pamuji wenuwo, na pemwiwuka muvakung'undila lububu lwa mumagendelu ginu kuvalangisa kuvya vene vahagwili kubela ujumbi wa Chapanga.”
And as many as may not receive you, going forth from that city, shake off even the dust from your feet for a witness against them.
6 Vawuliwa vakawuka penapo, vakahamba muhijiji na kuvakokosela vandu Lilovi la bwina na kuvalamisa vandu vana matamu.
And going forth they passed through the villages, announcing the glad tidings and healing everywhere.
7 Hinu, nkosi Helodi peayuwini mambu goha gegahengiki, akavagaya ndava muni vandu vajovayi, “Yohani Mbatizaji ayukili!”
And Herod the tetrarch heard of all the things which were done [by him], and was in perplexity, because it was said by some that John was risen from among [the] dead,
8 Vangi vakajova Eliya ahumalili na vangi vakajova mwenuyu mmonga wavi vamlota va Chapanga va kadeni vawuyili pamulima.
and by some that Elias had appeared, and by others that one of the old prophets had risen again.
9 Nambu Helodi akajova, “Ngati Yohani namdumwili mutu, hinu yani mwenuyu mweniyuwana malovi gaki?” Akanogela kumlola.
And Herod said, John I have beheaded, but who is this of whom I hear such things? and he sought to see him.
10 Vamitumi vala pavawuyili vakamjovela Yesu goha gavahengili. Yesu akavatola vene, akahamba nawu kuchiyepela kumuji wavaukemela Betisaida.
And the apostles having returned related to him whatever they had done. And he took them and withdrew apart into [a desert place of] a city called Bethsaida.
11 Nambu msambi wa vandu pawamanyili kwa ahambili Yesu vakamlanda. Yesu avapokili, akavajovela malovi ga Unkosi wa Chapanga na kuvalamisa vandu voha vevavi na matamu vakalama.
But the crowds knowing [it] followed him; and he received them and spake to them of the kingdom of God, and cured those that had need of healing.
12 Lilanga palatumbula kutipama, vawuliwa kumi na vavili vala vakamjovela, “Valagayi vandu vahamba muhijiji na mumigunda ya papipi vakajilondela vyakulya na pandu pa kugona muni petivii palugangatu.”
But the day began to decline, and the twelve came and said to him, Send away the crowd that they may go into the villages around, and [into] the fields, and lodge and find victuals, for here we are in a desert place.
13 Nambu Yesu akavajovela, “Muvapelayi nyenye chindu chakulya.” Vakamyangula. “Tete tivii na mabumunda mhanu na somba zivili ndu. Manya tihamba tikavagulila vyakulya msambi uwu woha.”
And he said to them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, We have not more than five loaves and two fishes, unless we should go and buy food for all this people;
14 Muni vavi vagosi, ngati elufu mhanu. Yesu akavajovela vawuliwa vaki, “Muvajovela vandu vatamayi hikundi ya vandu ngati hamsini hamsini.”
for they were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them sit down in companies by fifties.
15 Vawuliwa vakakita ngati cha avajovili, vakavatamisa voha.
And they did so, and made them all sit down.
16 Yesu akatola mabumunda mhanu na somba zivili zila, akalola kunani, akayimotisa, akayinukula akavapela vawuliwa vaki vavagavanisila vandu.
And taking the five loaves and the two fishes, looking up to heaven he blessed them, and broke and gave to the disciples to set before the crowd.
17 Vandu voha valili na kuyukuta. Ndi vakanonga na kumemesa madengu kumi na gavili ga hipandi yeyisigalili.
And they all ate and were filled; and there was taken up of what had remained over and above to them in fragments twelve hand-baskets.
18 Ligono limonga Yesu ayupayi kwa Chapanga mwene ndu, na vawuliwa vaki vavi papipi. Ndi, akavakota, “Vandu vijova kuvya nene ndi nayani?”
And it came to pass as he was praying alone, his disciples were with him, and he asked them saying, Who do the crowds say that I am?
19 Vene vakamyangula, “Vangi vijova veve Yohani Mbatizaji na vangi vijova Eliya na vangi vijova wa mmonga wa vamlota va Chapanga va kadeni mweayukili.”
But they answering said, John the baptist; but others, Elias; and others, that one of the old prophets has risen again.
20 Penapo Yesu akavakota, “Nambu nyenye mwijova kuvya nene ndi yani?” Petili akamyangula, “Veve ndi Kilisitu Msangula mwauhumili kwa Chapanga.”
And he said to them, But ye, who do ye say that I am? And Peter answering said, The Christ of God.
21 Kangi Yesu akavalagiza na kuvabesa vakotokayi kumjovela mundu yoyoha yula genago.
But, earnestly charging them, he enjoined [them] to say this to no man,
22 Mewa akavajovela, “Mwana wa Mundu iganikiwa kung'ahika neju na kubelelewa na vagogo na Vakulu va Kuteta na vawula va malagizu ga Chapanga geampeli Musa na kukomewa na muligono la datu yati iyuka.”
saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.
23 Ndi akavajovela vandu voha, “Mundu yoyoha yula mweigana kunilanda na ajibelayi hoti mwene agega msalaba waki magono goha anilandayi.
And he said to [them] all, If any one will come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me;
24 Muni mundu mweigana kuugombola wumi waki yati awuyagisa na yoyoha mweauyagisa wumi waki kwa kunilanda nene yati akuusangula.
for whosoever shall desire to save his life shall lose it, but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake, he shall save it.
25 Ngati mundu apatili vindu vyoha pamulima apa kuni iyagisa amala kujikomakesa mwene wumi waki, mundu mwenuyo apatili chindu kiki chabwina?
For what shall a man profit if he shall have gained the whole world, and have destroyed, or come under the penalty of the loss of himself?
26 Ndava muni mundu yeyoha yula ngati ikola soni kwa nene na mawuliwu gangu, Mwana wa Mundu, yati ikola soni kwa mundu mwenuyo peibwelayi muukulu waki na wa Dadi waki na mitumu va msopi wa kunani kwa Chapanga.
For whosoever shall have been ashamed of me and of my words, of him will the Son of man be ashamed when he shall come in his glory, and [in that] of the Father, and of the holy angels.
27 Chakaka nikuvajovela, vavi vandu vangi penapa yati vifwa lepi changaulola Unkosi wa Chapanga.”
But I say unto you of a truth, There are some of those standing here who shall not taste death until they shall have seen the kingdom of God.
28 Magono nane kuhuma Yesu peavajovili malovi genago, ndi Yesu akavatola Petili na Yohani na Yakobo kuhamba nawu kuchitumbi kumuyupa kwa Chapanga.
And it came to pass after these words, about eight days, that taking Peter and John and James he went up into a mountain to pray.
29 Peavili mukuyupa Chapanga, ulolekanu wa pamihu paki pang'anamwiki na nyula zaki zikavya zamsopi na kung'asima neju.
And as he prayed the fashion of his countenance became different and his raiment white [and] effulgent.
30 Bahapo vandu vavili vawonikini kulongela nayu, vandu vene vavi Musa na Eliya,
And lo, two men talked with him, who were Moses and Elias,
31 vahumili muukulu, ndi valongela nayu ndava ya lifwa laki, na kukita lihengu lelimalikisila ku Yelusalemu.
who, appearing in glory, spoke of his departure which he was about to accomplish in Jerusalem.
32 Petili na vayaki vavi mulugono tipi tipi, nambu pavayimwiki vauwene ukulu wa Yesu, vavawene na vandu veayimili nawu vala.
But Peter and those with him were oppressed with sleep: but having fully awoke up they saw his glory, and the two men who stood with him.
33 Pavamlekili, Petili akamjovela Yesu, “Bambu, nilola chabwina tete kutama bahapa! Hinu tijengi tundanda tudatu, chimonga chaku na chingi cha Musa na chingi cha Eliya.” Chakaka mwene nakumanya chavamjovili.
And it came to pass as they departed from him, Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing what he said.
34 Petili peajovayi ago, bahapo lihundi likahumila na kuvahulukila ndi lihundi palavahulukili vene vavi na wogohi neju.
But as he was saying these things, there came a cloud and overshadowed them, and they feared as they entered into the cloud:
35 Lwami lukayuwanika mulihundi mula. “Mwenuyu ndi Mwana vangu mwenimuhagwili, mumyuwanila.”
and there was a voice out of the cloud saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.
36 Lwami lula Palwayuwanika, Yesu awonakini avi mwene. Vawuliwa vaki vakavya nuu mu mambu genago na lukumbi lwenulo kawaka mundu mwavamjovili. Gevagaweni.
And as the voice was [heard] Jesus was found alone: and they kept silence, and told no one in those days any of the things they had seen.
37 Chilau yaki Yesu pamonga na vawuliwa vadatu vala vahelelayi kuhuma kuchitumbi kula, vakakonganeka na msambi wa vandu.
And it came to pass on the following day, when they came down from the mountain, a great crowd met him.
38 Penapo mundu mmonga akamkemela na kujova, “Muwula! Chondi mhengela lipyana mwana vangu, muni avili ngayuyu mwene!
And lo, a man from the crowd cried out saying, Teacher, I beseech thee look upon my son, for he is mine only child:
39 Yuwanila mzuka ukumzangila, na bahapo liywanga, kuni litovesa ligoji na lihuluhulu lihuma mumlomo, na likumung'aisa palukumbi lutali changamleka.
and behold, a spirit takes him, and suddenly he cries out, and it tears him with foaming, and with difficulty departs from him after crushing him.
40 Navayupili vawuliwa vaku vauvinga mzuka wula, nambu nakuhotola.”
And I besought thy disciples that they might cast him out, and they could not.
41 Yesu akayangula, akajova, “Nyenye chiveleku changasadika, na chechiyagili, yati nitama na nyenye na kuvasindimalila mbaka ndali?” Ndi akamjovela mkolo mwana yula, “Mleta mwana waku apa.”
And Jesus answering said, O unbelieving and perverted generation, how long shall I be with you and suffer you? Bring hither thy son.
42 Mwana yula peambwelili Yesu, mzuka ukamgwisa pahi na kumsopa ligoji. Nambu Yesu akauhakalila mzuka wula na kumlamisa mwana yula, akampela dadi waki.
But as he was yet coming, the demon tore him and dragged him all together. And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child and gave him back to his father.
43 Vandu voha vakakangasa makakala gakulu ga Chapanga. Vandu pavavi vakona vikangasa ndava ya mambu geagahengili, Yesu akavajovela vawuliwa vaki,
And all were astonished at the glorious greatness of God. And as all wondered at all the things which [Jesus] did, he said to his disciples,
44 “Muyuwanila bwina malovi aga, Mwana wa Mundu ihamba kusopiwa mumawoko ga vandu.”
Do ye let these words sink into your ears. For the Son of man is about to be delivered into men's hands.
45 Nambu vawuliwa vaki vavi nakugamanya malovi gaavajovili muni malovi gala gafiyiki kwavi ndava vakotoka kugamanya. Na vene vavi na wogohi kumkota mana ya malovi ago.
But they understood not this saying, and it was hid from them that they should not perceive it. And they feared to ask him concerning this saying.
46 Vawuliwa va Yesu vakatumbula kukotana veve kwa veve, yani mkulu kuliku voha.
And a reasoning came in amongst them, who should be [the] greatest of them.
47 Yesu amanyili maholo ga mumitima yavi, ndi akamtola mwana mng'enya, akamuvika papipi yaki,
And Jesus, seeing the reasoning of their heart, having taken a little child set it by him,
48 na akavajovela, “Mundu mweakumpokela mwana mdebe uyu kwa liina langu, mwenuyo akunipokela nene, na mundu yeyoha yula mweakunipokela nene, akumpokela mweanitumili. Muni mundu mweavi mdebe pagati yinu, ndi mkulu.”
and said to them, Whosoever shall receive this little child in my name receives me, and whosoever shall receive me receives him that sent me. For he who is the least among you all, he is great.
49 Yohani akamjovela Yesu, “Bambu, tikamuweni mundu ivinga mizuka kwa liina laku na tete talingili kumbesa ndava mwene alongosini lepi na tete.”
And John answering said, Master, we saw some one casting out demons in thy name, and we forbad him, because he follows not with us.
50 Yesu akavajovela, “Mkotoka kulinga kumbesa, ndava yeyoha mwangatovana na nyenye avi upandi winu.”
And Jesus said to him, Forbid [him] not, for he that is not against you is for you.
51 Lukumbi lwa Yesu palwahegalili lwa kutoliwa kuhamba kunani kwa Chapanga, ndi Yesu akagana neju kuhamba ku Yelusalemu.
And it came to pass when the days of his receiving up were fulfilled, that he stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem.
52 Na, avatumili vajumbi vamulongolela, vakayingila muchijiji chimonga cha Vasamaliya ndava ya kumtendelekeha bwina kila chindu.
And he sent messengers before his face. And having gone they entered into a village of the Samaritans that they might make ready for him.
53 Nambu vakolo njinji va penapo nakugana kumpokela Yesu ndava vamanyili ngati Yesu aganili kuhamba ku Yelusalemu.
And they did not receive him, because his face was [turned as] going to Jerusalem.
54 Lukumbi vawuliwa vaki vakina Yohani na Yakobo pavaloli genago, vakajova, “Bambu ugana tilagizayi motu kuhuma kunani kwa Chapanga luvatinyisayi?”
And his disciples James and John seeing [it] said, Lord, wilt thou that we speak [that] fire come down from heaven and consume them, as also Elias did?
55 Nambu Yesu akavang'anamukila, akavahakalila.
But turning he rebuked them [and said, Ye know not of what spirit ye are].
56 Kangi Yesu na vawuliwa vaki vakahamba kuchijiji chingi.
And they went to another village.
57 Pavagendayi munjila, mundu mmonga akamjovela Yesu, “Yati nikulanda kokoha kula kwewihamba.”
And it came to pass as they went in the way, one said to him, I will follow thee wheresoever thou goest, Lord.
58 Yesu akamjovela, “Mahogo gana mbugu za kugona na videge vina chisakanilu nambu mwana wa Mundu avi lepi na pandu pakupumulila.”
And Jesus said to him, The foxes have holes and the birds of the heaven roosting-places, but the Son of man has not where he may lay his head.
59 Yesu akamjovela mundu yungi, “Nilandayi.” Nambu mundu yula akamyangula, “Bambu, nileka hoti nihamba nikamuzika dadi wangu.”
And he said to another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, allow me to go first and bury my father.
60 Nambu Yesu akamyangula, “Valeka vevafwili vavazikayi vevafwili vavi, nambu veve uhamba ukakokosa Unkosi wa Chapanga.”
But Jesus said to him, Suffer the dead to bury their own dead, but do thou go and announce the kingdom of God.
61 Na mundu yungi akamjovela, “Bambu yati nikukulanda, nambu nikuyupa nikavalaga hoti vandu va kunyumba yangu.”
And another also said, I will follow thee, Lord, but first allow me to bid adieu to those at my house.
62 Nambu Yesu akamyangula, “Mundu yeyoha mweikamula ligela kutumbula kulima kuni ilolokesa mumbele, mwenuyo nakuganikiwa muunkosi wa Chapanga.”
But Jesus said to him, No one having laid his hand on [the] plough and looking back is fit for the kingdom of God.
