< Maluko 6 >

1 Yesu na vawuliwa vaki, vakawuka penapo vakahamba kuchijiji chaki cha ku Nazaleti.
Then Jesus left that place and went to his hometown, and his disciples followed him.
2 Ligono la Kupumulila, atumbwili kuwula munyumba ya kukonganekela Vayawudi. Vamahele vevamuyuwini vakangisi, vakajova, “Wu, agapatili koki mambu aga geijova? Apatili koki luhala ulu? Kavili ikita wuli gachinamtiti?
When the Sabbath came, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard him were astonished, saying, “Where did this man get these things? And what is this wisdom that has been given to him, that such miracles are done by his hands?
3 Wu, mwenuyu lepi selemala, mwana wa Maliya na mlongo wavi Yakobo na Yose na Yuda na Simoni? Wu, valumbu vaki titama nawu lepi bahapa?” Ndi vakabela kumsadika.
Is this not the carpenter, the son of Mary, and the brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? Are not his sisters here with us?” And they took offense at him.
4 Yesu akavajovela, “Mlota wa Chapanga itopeswa kila pandi, lepi kunyumba yaki, kwa valongo vaki na pamulima waki.”
Then Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his hometown, among his relatives, and in his own household.”
5 Ndava yeniyo Yesu akitili lepi mambu gachinamtiti pala, ndi avavikili mawoko vatamu vadebedebe akavalamisa.
So he could do no miracles there, except that he laid his hands on a few sick people and healed them.
6 Akangisi neju ndava ya vandu vangasadika. Kangi Yesu avigendalili muhijiji ya papipi na kuvawula vandu.
And he was amazed at their unbelief. Then Jesus went around among the villages teaching.
7 Akavakemela vawuliwa kumi na vavili, akatumbula akavatuma vandu vavili vavili, akavapela uhotola wa kuvinga mizuka.
He summoned the twelve and began to send them out two by two, giving them authority over unclean spirits.
8 Akavalagiza akajova, “Kwemwihamba uko, mukotoka kugega chindu chochoha chila ndonga ndu, lepi chakulya, lihaku, amala mashonga pachilolo.
He instructed them to take nothing for their journey except a staff—no knapsack, no bread, and no copper money in their belts.
9 Muwala champali nambu mkotoka kugega ligwanda lingi.”
He told them to wear sandals but not an extra tunic.
10 Akavajovela, “Nyumba yeyoha yevakuvapokela mutama bahapo mbaka pa ligono lemuwuka.
He also said to them, “Whenever you enter a house, stay there until you leave that place.
11 Kwa vandu vevibela kuvapokela amala kuvayuwanila, penapo ndi muwuka na muvakung'undila lububu lwavi, kulangisa kuvya vene vaubeli ujumbi wa Chapanga!”
If anyone will not receive you or listen to you, shake the dust off your feet as you leave that place, as a testimony against them. Truly I say to you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that city.”
12 Hinu, vakawuka penapo vakahamba kuvakokosela vandu vamuwuyila Chapanga.
So they went out and preached that people should repent.
13 Vakayivinga mizuka vamahele. Na kuvanyala mahuta ga zeituni vatamu vamahele, vakavalamiswa.
They also cast out many demons and anointed with oil many who were sick and healed them.
14 Nkosi Helodi agayuwini goha, muni malovi ga Yesu gayenili pandi zoha. Vandu vangi vajovayi mwenuyu, “Ndi Yohani Mbatizaji ayukili! Ndava muni ihenga gachinamtiti.”
Now King Herod heard about this, for Jesus' name had become known, and he said, “John the Baptist has been raised from the dead, and that is why these mighty powers are at work in him.”
15 Vangi vakajova, “Mwenuyu ndi Eliya.” Vangi vakajova, “Mwenuyu ndi mmonga wa valota va Chapanga va kadeni.”
Others said, “He is Elijah.” And others said, “He is a prophet, like one of the prophets of old.”
16 Nambu Helodi peayuwini malovi gala akajova, “Yohani namdumwili mutu, hinu ayukili!”
But when Herod heard this, he said, “This is John, whom I beheaded; he has been raised from the dead.”
17 Aholalili genago ndava mu magono ga mumbele, Helodi alagazili Yohani akamuliwa na kukungiwa muchifungu. Genago gahumalili ndava Helodi amgegili Helodiya mdala wa Filipi mweavi mlongo waki.
For Herod himself had sent men to arrest John and chain him in prison on account of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, whom Herod had married.
18 Yohani amjovelayi Helodi, “Chabwina lepi veve kumtola mdala wa mlongo waku.”
For John had been saying to Herod, “It is not lawful for yoʋ to have yoʋr brother's wife.”
19 Hinu Helodiya, mweavi mdala wa nkosi, amuhakalili neju Yohani, akagana kumkoma, nambu ahotwili lepi.
So Herodias held a grudge against John and wanted to kill him, but she was not able to do so.
20 Helodi amuyogwipi Yohani muni amanyili kuvya Yohani ndi mundu wa msopi na mbwina. Ndava yeniyo amyangalili. Helodi aganayi kumuyuwanila Yohani, pamonga amyuwanili mtima wamvinili.
For Herod feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and he protected him. When Herod listened to John, he would listen to him gladly and do many things.
21 Ligono limonga mdala wa nkosi apatili fwasi pa ligono la kukumbukwa kwa kuvelekewa Helodi. Hinu akavakemela vagogo va libanji na vachilongosi va Galilaya pamonga na vakulu va manjolinjoli.
But an opportune day came. On his birthday Herod prepared a banquet for his nobles, military commanders, and the prominent men of Galilee.
22 Hinu msikana waki Helodiya, akayingila na kutumbula kukina ngo'ma. Hinu akavahekesa neju Helodi na vayehe vaki. Nkosi akamjovela msikana yula, “Uniyupa chindu chochoha chila na nene yati nikupela.”
When the daughter of Herodias came in and danced, she pleased Herod and his guests. So the king said to the girl, “Ask me for whatever yoʋ wish, and I will give it to yoʋ.”
23 Kavili akamlapakisa, akamjovela, “Chochoha cheukuniyupa, yati nikupela, hati ngati kugavana upinga wa unkosi wangu.”
He swore to her, “Whatever yoʋ ask me, I will give to yoʋ, up to half my kingdom.”
24 Penapo msikana yula akawuka mugati mu libanji, akahamba kumkota nyina waki. “Wigana niyupa kyani?” Namwene akamyangula, “Mutu wa Yohani Mbatizaji.”
So she went out and said to her mother, “What should I ask for?” Her mother said, “The head of John the Baptist.”
25 Msikana yula akawuya kanyata kavili kwa nkosi, akamjovela, “Nigana unipela hinu naha mulupalu mutu wa Yohani Mbatizaji.”
Immediately the girl came in with haste to the king and made her request, saying, “I want yoʋ to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter.”
26 Nkosi peayuwini genago, akavya ngolongondi, nambu muni ajilapakisi mwene, na ndava ya vayehe vaki, ahotwili lepi kumbelelela msikana yula ndi akamyidikila.
Although the king was very sad, because of his oaths and his guests, he did not want to reject her.
27 Hinu, akamlagiza linjolinjoli akaleta mutu wa Yohani. Linjolinjoli akahamba kuudumula mutu wa Yohani muchifungu mula,
So the king immediately sent an executioner and commanded that John's head be brought back.
28 kangi amletili mutu wula mulupalu akampela msikana, namwene akampelekela nyina waki.
The executioner then went and beheaded John in the prison, brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the girl. And the girl gave it to her mother.
29 Vawuliwa va Yohani pevayuwini vakahamba kutola higa yaki vakahamba kuzika.
When John's disciples heard about it, they came and took his body and laid it in a tomb.
30 Vamitumi vakawuya mulugendu lwavi vakamjovela Yesu, mambu goha gavakitili na chavawulili vandu.
Meanwhile, the apostles gathered around Jesus and told him about all they had done and taught.
31 Vandu vamahele neju vabwelayi na kuwuka kwa Yesu, ndi mbaka fwasi ya kulya yavi lepi. Hinu Yesu akavajovela vawuliwa, “Tihamba kuchiyepela mukapumulila padebe.”
Then he said to them, “Come away by yourselves to a desolate place and rest for a little while.” For many people were coming and going, and Jesus and his apostles did not even have an opportunity to eat.
32 Hinu, vakawuka ngavene muwatu vakahamba kuchiyepela.
So they went away to a desolate place in the boat by themselves.
33 Nambu vandu vamahele vavaweni pavawukayi, vakavamanya. Ndi vakalongolela kuhika kula kwa magendelu kweahambayi Yesu na vawuliwa vaki.
Now many saw them going away and recognized Jesus. They ran together on foot from all the towns, got there ahead of them, and then gathered around him.
34 Yesu na vawuliwa vaki pevahulwiki muwatu kumbwani, ndi auweni msambi uvaha wa vandu, akaviniswa mtima, muni vavi ngati limbelele langali mdimaji. Akatumbula kuvawula mambu gamahele.
When Jesus went ashore and saw a large crowd, he was moved with compassion for them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. So he began to teach them many things.
35 Lilanga palatipimi, ndi vawuliwa vaki vakahamba kumjovela Yesu, “Penapa palugangatu, lilanga litipama.
When the hour was already quite late, his disciples came to him and said, “This place is desolate, and the hour is now late.
36 Mbanga uvalaga vandu vahamba mumigunda na muhijiji ya papipi, vakagula vyakulya.”
Send the people away so that they may go into the surrounding countryside and villages and buy themselves some bread, for they have nothing to eat.”
37 Yesu akavajovela, “Muvapela nyenye chakulya.” Nambu vene vakamkota, “Tivapela kyani? Yati yikutigana tihenga lihengu kwa miyehi yamahele ndi tipatayi mashonga ga kuvagulila chakulya vandu voha ava?”
But Jesus answered them, “You give them something to eat.” They said to him, “Are we to go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give it to them to eat?”
38 Yesu akavakota, “Mabumunda gavi galinga? Muhamba mukalola.” Pevamali kulola vakawuya kumjovela, “Yivii mhanu na somba zivili.”
He said to them, “How many loaves do you have? Go and see.” When they found out, they said, “Five, and two fish.”
39 Yesu akavalagiza vawuliwa vaki vavatamika vandu voha chikundi chikundi pahi pamanyai.
Then he directed them to have all the people sit down in groups on the green grass.
40 Hinu vene vakatama chikundi chikundi, vingi vandu hamsini, na vingi vandu miya.
So they sat down in groups of hundreds and fifties.
41 Kangi Yesu akagatola mabumunda mhanu na somba zila, akalola kunani kwa Chapanga, akamsengusa Chapanga. Ndi akagametula mabumunda gala pamonga na somba zila. Akavapela vawuliwa vaki muni vavagavanisila vandu.
Then he took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he blessed the food. He broke the loaves and gave them to his disciples to set before the people, and he divided the two fish among them all.
42 Vandu voha vevavi penapo valili vakayukuta.
They all ate and were filled,
43 Hinu, vakanonga masigalilu ga mabumunda na somba vakamemesa madengu kumi na gavili.
and the disciples picked up twelve baskets full of the broken pieces and of the fish.
44 Vevalili chakulya chila, vavi vagosi elufu mhanu.
Now those who had eaten the loaves were five thousand men.
45 Bahapo Yesu akavalagiza vawuliwa vaki vayingila muwatu valongolela kuhamba kumwambu ya nyanja, kumuji wa Betisaida. Muni mwene avi akona ilagana na msambi wa vandu.
Immediately Jesus compelled his disciples to get into the boat and go ahead of him to the other side of the sea, to Bethsaida, while he sent the crowd away.
46 Hati peamali kulagana na vandu, akahamba kuchitumbi kumuyupa Chapanga.
After taking leave of them, he went to the mountain to pray.
47 Lilanga palatipimi, Yesu avi mwene kundumba na watu wamali kuhika pagati ya nyanja.
When evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and he was alone on the land.
48 Mwene avaweni vawuliwa chaving'ahika muwatu mula na mipundi muni mpungu wavi uvaha ukuvawuyisa mumbele. Hinu hambakucha, Yesu avahegalili kuni igenda mumanji akagana kuvapita.
He saw the disciples straining as they rowed, for the wind was against them. About the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea, and intended to pass them by.
49 Nambu pavamuweni igenda panani ya manji vayogwipi, vaholali kuvya lihoka, “Vakaywanga mulete.”
But when they saw him walking on the sea, they thought it was a ghost and cried out.
50 Voha pavamuweni vayogwipi neju. Bahapo Yesu akajova nawu, “Mjipolesa mtima. Ndi nene. Mkoto kuyogopa!”
For they all saw him and were terrified. But Jesus immediately said to them, “Take courage! It is I; do not be afraid.”
51 Ndi, akayingila muwatu wevavili vawuliwa na mpungu wa luyuga lukaguna lukumbi lulalula. Vawuliwa vakakangasa neju,
Then he got into the boat with them, and the wind ceased. And they were utterly and completely amazed and in awe;
52 ndava muni vamanyili lepi mana chinamtiti cha kuyonjokeseka chakulya chila ndava ya kunonopa kwa mitima yavi.
for they did not understand the significance of what had happened with the loaves, because their hearts were hardened.
53 Vakakupuka nyanja, vakahika kumuji wa ku Genezaleti vakahuyimika watu.
When they had crossed the sea, they came to the land of Gennesaret and moored the boat.
54 Pevahumili muwatu mula, kanyata vandu vakammanya Yesu.
When they got out of the boat, people immediately recognized Jesus.
55 Hinu, kanyata vakahamba kila chijiji pandu pala, vakatumbula kuvatola vatamu vevagonili mumipasa, vakavapeleka kila pevayuwini Yesu avili.
So the people ran around throughout the entire surrounding region and began to carry the sick on mats to wherever they heard he was.
56 Pandu poha peahambili Yesu, muhijiji na mumiji na mumigunda, vandu vavavikili vatamu pandu pakugulisila vindu, vandu vakamuyupa neju avayidakila vatamu vala, vapamisayi lugunyilu lwa nyula yaki. Ndi voha vevampamisi valamili.
And wherever he went, to villages, cities, or the countryside, they would lay the sick in the marketplaces and beg him to let the sick touch even the fringe of his garment. And all who touched it were healed.
